Obama rally fires up supporters

By Monique Collins monique.collins@marquette.edu

Carole Burns, director of the Wakerly Technology Training Center in the College of Communication, is known as the college’s “tech guru.” Now, she’s putting her talents to use in a new way by working with individuals with autism to support their needs and help them find the resources they need to succeed.

Einstein Productions, located at 161 W. Wisconsin Ave. Suite 18 in the Grand Avenue Mall and founded by Burns, trains individuals with Asperger’s syndrome, a form of autism, in digital media.

This training includes photography, video, graphic design, broadcast and digital storytelling, Burns said. The company’s grand opening will take place on Oct. 15 in Grand Avenue Mall.

“It is my belief (that) being able to work from home or their own office will allow them to be successful in maintaining employment,” Burns said. “No one wants to be dependent on others their entire life, and this group is no different.”

Burns has a personal connection to the autistic community that motivated her to start Einstein Productions. Her son, who was diagnosed with autism at the age of 14, has dealt with behavioral disabilities for most of his life. In 1998, he was also diagnosed with several other

Stormy conditions did little to dampen enthusiasm for President Obama, who drew a crowd of more than 18,000 to his speech Saturday afternoon.

Thousands gather at Summerfest Grounds to hear president

President Barack Obama held a rally Saturday for a reported 18,000 supporters in the rain at Milwaukee’s Summerfest Grounds, with many Marquette students in attendance.

The president used the majority of his stump speech to hammer home policy initiatives he is

hoping to accomplish if granted a second term, including investments in alternative energy and increased taxes on Americans making more than $250,000.

He also took time to slam Gov. Romney and Rep. Paul Ryan for what he called a “you’re on your own” philosophy.

“I don’t think government can solve all of our problems, but I don’t think it’s the source of all our problems,” Obama said to the crowd amidst the rain and wind.

Obama also mentioned the recent attacks in Libya, vowing to See Continue, page 7

Mueller originally joined the Society of Jesus soon after graduating from Marquette, and the recent final vows come after years of preparation and reflection from both parties.

“I realized in college I actually thought the way (the Jesuits) thought, looked at the world the way they do,” Mueller said, recalling why he first joined the Jesuits.

Mueller’s vows Sunday reflected those taken by St. Ignatius in 1534.

The Rev. Joseph Mueller professed his final vows to the Society of Jesus this past Sunday in a ceremony at the Gesu Church, the same vows St. Ignatius of Loyola took upon founding the religious order in 1534.

The Rev. Thomas A. Lawler,

the provincial superior of the Wisconsin Province of Jesuits, presided over the mass and welcomed Mueller — who has been a Catholic priest since 1993 — as a full member of the Jesuits.

“Today we celebrate Father Mueller’s full and total surrender to the Lord and his full and total incorporation into the Society of Jesus,” Lawler said at the beginning of the Mass.

A graduate of Marquette in 1981, Mueller began teaching at the university in 1999 and has ever since. He teaches classes including an Introduction to Theology course, a class on the Second

DPS Reports

News in Brief MPD to potentially face investigation U.S. Attorney James Santelle could launch two federal investigations of the Milwaukee police department, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is reporting.

The first investigation would be into the death of Derek Williams, who died in Milwaukee police custody in July 2011.

A Journal Sentinel investigation reopened the case and released police reports and a video of Williams in the back seat of a squad car showing him gasping for breath and telling the officers that he could not breathe. After watching the video last week, the medical examiner’s office changed its ruling on William’s death from natural death to homicide.

The second investigation would look into the police department as a whole and whether the department has tolerated civil rights abuses or failed to address such conduct.

Santelle told the Journal Sentinel that he does not anticipate a quick decision on whether there will be an investigation.

UN Assembly to begin this week More than 120 world leaders will meet in New York this week, as part of this year’s United Nations General Assembly.

Among the list of expected highprofile issues to be discussed at the U.N. meeting is the ongoing Syrian civil war. Citizens in opposition to the current regime have estimated that, since March 2011, up to 30,000 people have been killed in the violence raging throughout the country. Syria’s Local Coordination Committees said that

67 people were killed across the country last Monday alone.

To make matters worse, international envoy Lakhdar Brahimi said he expects the war to take yet another downturn and possibly even spill into more of the Middle East.

Brahimi said, however, that he has confidence in the country’s citizens to turn the situation around.

“I refuse to believe that reasonable people do not see that you cannot go backward,” he said to the Associated Press. “You cannot go back to the Syria of the past.”

County to transfer 911 duties to city Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and Milwaukee County Executive Chris Abele announced Monday a plan to allow the Milwaukee Police Department to take over the 911 emergency call system, lakefront patrols and park patrols.

Currently, county police holds control over those jurisdictions, meaning Sheriff David A. Clarke Jr. would need to cut an estimated $3.3 million from his $142 million budget and lay off 23 workers under this proposal.

However, the displaced county workers would be given consideration for the new city jobs, according to a proposed memorandum of understanding.

Barrett and Abele said the budget cuts laid out in their plan will ultimately save taxpayer money while offering protection more efficiently.

“I don’t anticipate too many people being upset with saving money, improving public safety and improving collaboration with our friends at the city,” Abele said to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Before it can go into effect, the

proposal will need to be approved by both the City Council and the County Board.

Wis. test scores among best in US Wisconsin’s SAT and AP test scores exceeded the national average, with the former trumping the rest of the country in every category, critical reading, math and writing, by close to 100 points.

Wisconsin AP students had a passing rate (scoring a three or higher on the five point test), that was ten percentage points higher than the national pass rate, with 69.4 percent of Wisconsin AP students passing compared to just 59.3 percent of test takers across the rest of the nation.

The news comes a month after Wisconsin posted its lowest ACT average composite score since 1996, while still tying for second highest in the nation.

Pork shortage ‘unavoidable’ Britain’s National Pig Association has called a world shortage of pork next year “unavoidable” after data has shown pig herds are in decline in Europe and across the globe.

The Chicago Tribune reported Monday that worldwide droughts have led to lower corn and soybean yields for the year, in turn leading to a decrease in herd size by as much as ten percent.

The paper also reported that according to the World Bank, global food prices jumped ten percent in July, including a 25 percent increase for wheat and maize.

MU service learning named among nation’s best programs University praised for outreach, impact, student involvement

By Melanie Lawder melanie.lawder@marquette.edu

Marquette’s service learning program was selected as the Experiential Education Program of the Year by the National Society for Experiential Education (NSEE). The award will be presented to Marquette Oct. 5, at the annual NSEE conference at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Milwaukee.

Marquette’s service learning program was implemented within the Center for Teaching and Learning in 1994, according to its informational brochure. Service learning aims to provide students with “meaningful community service” experiences outside the classroom that will help them to better understand their coursework. The program connects students to external agencies, allowing students to confront social justice issues that pertain to their course material. Students provide a variety of services for their agencies include tutoring, mentoring, teaching English as a second language, conducting research, surveys and developing videos and brochures.

Sue Leister, chair of the NSEE Awards Committee and director

of the internship program of Alverno College, nominated Marquette for the award.

Leister said she nominated Marquette’s service learning because of its unique five-model system, involvement of student staff in the service learning process and the program’s special emphasis on reflection. She said Alverno College personally benefitted from Marquette’s experience with service learning.

“They were a valuable resource as we developed our own Campus Compact Learning Grant,” Leister wrote in Marquette’s nomination.

She said recipients of the NSEE’s program of the year award are evaluated on program consistency with NSEE’s mission, innovative program design and implementation, extensive program outreach and a high level of impact among diverse communities. NSEE’s mission is “to foster the effective use of experience as an integral part of education,” according to its website.

Kimberly Jensen-Bohat, director of Marquette’s Service Learning, said Marquette’s program has served as a model and consultant for many other schools, including UW-Milwaukee, St. Joseph’s University in Philadelphia and Marian College.

Jensen said service learning opportunities exist in about 75 percent of the academic departments on campus and in every college except

the Law School, which has its own program focusing on pro bono services. Service learning opportunities are available at all points in a student’s academic career – from freshman- to senior-level classes.

Jensen said about 2,500 students used the service learning program last year and about 1,100 registered this semester. According to the 2012 Graduating Senior Survey, 63 percent of students who graduated from Marquette participated in a service learning class.

One characteristic of the Marquette program, recognized by the NSEE, is its heavy use of students, instead of full-time faculty members, as active coordinators.

The program’s staff includes two full-time administrators and fifteen students. The student coordinators, who are regarded as “case managers,” act as liaisons and maintain partnerships between the agencies, students and the professors who use service learning.

“A lot of (universities) don’t realize that the student staff run this program,” said Anna Feeley, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences and a student staff manager in the service learning program. “A lot of other programs have six full-time faculty, but we only have two.”

Feeley said service learning provides experience not available in a normal class.

Ann Romney appeals to women during MU visit

Photo by Claire Nowak/claire.nowak@marquette.edu

The Romney campaign had visible female support during Anne Romney’s rally Thursday, despite claims that it has been disconnected from women.

Event follows poor showing in law school poll for GOP nominee

By Alexandra Whittaker alexandra.whittaker@marquette.edu

Local television crews swarmed the Old Gym at Marquette Thursday morning to witness an appearance by Ann Romney at a campaign rally in support for her husband, Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney. With over 400 people in attendance, the event attracted students, professors,

politicians, supporters, protestors and members of the media.

Operating under a theme of “Women for Mitt,” Ann Romney emphasized her husband’s support for women.

“He cares about women ... making the economy work for women,” Romney said. “We need to have women understand Mitt is a person who cares.”

In attendance were a group of women who had previously served under Mitt Romney during his time as governor of Massachusetts, a statement which, according to Ann Romney, demonstrated his track record of supporting women and hiring women for key roles in

his administration.

“The bottom line of having these women here, having me here and having all of these women in the audience is to know that Mitt put women in key leadership positions to help create job growth,” Romney said.

Before she took the stage, a number of female politicians and supporters from Wisconsin spoke on Mitt Romney’s behalf, including Marquette student Sam Zager, a junior in the College of Arts & Sciences and cochair of the Coalition of Young Americans for Mitt Romney, who spoke about her support of Romney and her disappointment with the Obama administration.

Republican state senators Alberta Darling and Leah Vukmir and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch also joined Zager onstage at the event.

The focus on female voters was seen as a response to criticism the Romney campaign has received in the past for struggling to connect with women.

A Marquette Law School poll released last Wednesday, a day before Ann Romney’s visit, showed Mitt Romney trailing President Barack Obama in Wisconsin by 14 percentage points among likely voters, a huge increase in the gap from the same poll released last month.

While the speakers chose not to address the poll’s re-

sults directly, it was clear that the emphasis of the day was on encouraging women to support Romney, with specific attention given to female college students. Pat Garrett, a junior in the College of Arts & Sciences and Chairman of Marquette College Republicans, was pleased with the platform of the event.

“I think it was a really good event to bring two groups that don’t necessarily always vote Republican into the Republican fold, and that’s women and students,” Garrett said. “I think that we’re doing a great job reaching out to those voters now, and if we keep doing that, then we’re going to bring them to the fold and we’re going to win in November.”

While the event was geared specifically toward Republicans, and the majority of students in the audience were from Marquette, there were Democrats and students from other universities who came to hear Ann Romney speak.

“I came to listen, and I came to see what I am disagreeing with,” said University of Wisconsin-Madison student and Democrat Erik Tyler, who took a bus early on Thursday morning and missed class in order to attend the event.

“I completely disagree with most of the speeches, but I want to be informed going into the election, so this was a good opportunity for me to remind myself why I am not a Republican,” he said. “I mean, us Democrats don’t need to remind voters that we support women. Our actions speak louder than their words.”

Civil War honored Freedom Project commemorates 150th anniversary of war

By Elise Angelopulos elise.angelopulos@marquette.edu

In honor of the sesquicentennial, or 150th anniversary, of the Civil War, Marquette will evaluate the meanings and histories of freedom and liberty throughout the United States and the world through the Freedom Project.

The project is part of a national initiative, The Civil War Sesquicentennial Network, which celebrates various demonstrations of freedom in this country supported by organizations like the CNN Freedom Project in Ending Modern Day Slavery and the Civil War Trust.

At Marquette, Freedom Project events include regular guest speakers presenting speeches at Raynor Library. The next event, on Sept. 27, will feature Steven Hahn, history professor at the University of Pennsylvania, who will speak on “The Dimensions of Freedom: Slave Emancipation, Indian Peoples and the Projects of the New American State.”

Artwork will be on display at the Haggerty Museum of Art until Dec. 22 and throughout Raynor Library Reserves.

The pieces depict the evils of slavery and value of freedom.

Marquette’s logo for the Freedom Project depicts an artist’s

picture of a slave under whom the words, “Am I not a man and a brother?” appear, a picture encouraging the people of the time to abolish slavery.

The yearlong project is sponsored by the history department, the Office of Diversity and Inclusion in the Office of the Provost, Raynor Memorial Libraries and the Mellon Fund in the College of Arts & Sciences.

James Marten, project director and chair of the history department, has been planning Marquette’s celebration with the Freedom Project for two years.

Marten said the project is a university wide effort.

“The library offered to host the website and come up with exhibits and other events; the theater department decided to devote its entire season to plays and performances related to different kinds of freedom; the Haggerty Museum devoted its entire space this fall semester to three different exhibits,” he said.

Marten said other aspects of the programming will deal with freedom of speech, artistic expressions of freedom, women’s and civil rights, corporate greed, domestic surveillance and education.

Debra Krajec, the artistic director of the theatre arts program, said she joined the project after Marten requested her consideration in devoting performances to the freedom topic.

“I was pleased to see how the arts are still valued as a way to express and explore freedom on our campus,” Krajec said. “We chose to use ‘FREEDOM TO…’

The Haggerty Art Museum’s three fall exhibits include pieces inspired by the struggles for emacipation.

as our season’s theme this year, and each offering has a connection to different kinds of freedoms we are lucky enough to enjoy in our country today.”

Krajec said two upcoming productions encompass the values of the Freedom Project. She said the upcoming production “A Doll’s House” focuses on women’s inability to achieve freedom during Victorian times, while “Urinetown,” another upcoming production, satirically represents a people fighting for freedom from a corporate power.

William Welburn, director of the Office of Diversity and

Inclusion, dedicated this year’s Metcalfe chairs and other funding to the project. Welburn said his decision to take part in the Freedom Project was simple considering the real importance in recognizing emancipation and its far reaching implications.

“That proclamation and its context – the Civil War – give us a lens to look at the ideas of freedom and democracy, which are not only important in world history, but are what we are experiencing now,” Welburn said.

Welburn said he hopes Marquette students will take advantage of the project’s offerings.

“We are delighted that the idea of freedom will be a part of the fabric of campus life this year, and I am happy that the provost’s office is able to play a part in making all of that happen,” Welburn said.

Marten said the idea of freedom is one Americans may sometimes lose in translation.

“I think most Americans take freedom for granted, but even more relevant is that most Americans think that the meaning of freedom is the same for everyone and has never changed,” Marten said.

Latest iPhone thinner, faster

Crime by numbers

First three days of sales drive Apple stock prices to new high

DOE report shines light on area criminal activity

By Emily Fischer emily.fischer@marquette.edu

Apple’s fifth and most recent iteration of the popular iPhone was unveiled Sept. 12 and released Friday, selling more than five million products in the first three days alone.

The iPhone 5 has a larger screen, thinner design and has a 20 percent lighter weight than the previous model. Other features include the ability to shoot panoramic photos and HD video and newly designed “EarPods” that take the place of traditional headphones.

Michael Feroli of JP Morgan estimates that the release of the iPhone 5 could potentially boost U.S. economic growth in the fourth quarter by as many as 0.5 percentage points, possibly selling as many as 50 million units.

Feroli said the estimate should be met with skepticism, however, as an increase in the economy of that size would be significant.

Prior to its release in stores, Apple sold two million phones in one day of pre-sales, double that of the previous model. This led Apple’s share price to reach an all-time high of $700.44 before closing at

$699.78 on the NASDAQ market.

Jared Wimmer, a senior in the College of Business Administration, purchased the phone at the Sprint store in Brown Deer, arriving about an hour before the store opened.

“My favorite new feature is a tie between the speed of the device and the size of the screen,” Wimmer said. “Some people say it’s still too small compared to the Android phones, but I think it’s perfect. It’s larger, to see more of your content, but still small enough to use comfortably with one hand.

The speed is ridiculous. The A6 chip is twice as fast as the A5 in the iPhone 4s, and you can really tell the difference while playing games or just using the device’s normal functions.”

In addition to the updated operating system and physical appearance, the iPhone 5 has a redesigned connector that uses eight pins instead of 30. This connector is not adaptable for use with other Apple products which requires users to purchase a $29 adaptor.

“I’m not infuriated,” said Noah Toumert, a freshman in the college of Arts & Sciences, about the adaptors. “I’m not even mad.

I’m just a little miffed. It’s an annoyance – just another thing for me to buy.”

Toumert has been purchasing iPhones in part because they help boost a person’s status among peers.

“I got my first iPhone two months after the original came out,” Toumert said. “There was an allure that came with having the iPhone. ... There are other smart phones that work just as well.

Having the new iPhone is definitely a status symbol.”

Felicia Miller, a Marquette assistant professor of marketing, agreed that there is a status behind buying Apple products in addition to the efficiency of their products.

“Apple is an iconic brand that is as much about symbolism as it is substance,” Miller said. “The Apple brand has been successful in part because of its technology and in part because of its marketing. On the technology side, Apple computer, the brand’s original product, was very reliable and provided capabilities that PC competitors did not.”

“From this foundation of superior technology came the iPod – a relatively inexpensive and low commitment way to experience Apple’s technology,” she continued. “Apple’s product line quickly grew to include other MP3 devices and ultimately cellphones because it created marketing messages that enticed consumer to touch, feel and ultimately buy their products.”

The phone will be available in 22 more countries this Friday and more than 100 by the end of the year.

Data published by the Department of Education indicates that between 2008 and 2010, 84 burglaries and 2,555 liquor law violations resulting in disciplinary action were reported to have taken place on Marquette’s campus. Department of Public Safety Cpt. Russell Shaw said numbers would likely have been lower if DPS did not patrol and report on such a large area.

“Our patrol area is large,” Shaw said. “We go all the way to 24th Street on the west, 7th on the east, and all the way to Highland (Boulevard) on the north. If we shrunk our patrol area, obviously our numbers would be lower.”

“We always go above and beyond in anything that’s reported by us in our patrol area to write a report on,” he continued. “I believe the only two robberies we had this fall were both non-Marquette affiliated, and both were on the peripheral of our patrol area.”

For example, last weekend, a robbery took place near the corner of 23rd Street and State Street — a location off Marquette’s campus — but DPS still responded to the situation.

The Department of Education data currently covers crime statistics for colleges and universities across the country from 2008 to 2010 for some schools and 2009 to 2011 for others. 2011 and 2012 data have not yet been released for Marquette.

Burglary at Marquette is one of the most commonly reported crimes on campus. In 2010, there were 36 burglaries reported on Marquette’s campus. In the same year, at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 14 burglaries were reported on campus.

Saint Louis University’s similarly urban campus reported 15 burglaries throughout 2010. The enrollment at UWM is 29,350 as

opposed to 12,002 listed at Marquette and 17,859 at Saint Louis.

The data collected also indicate the number of liquor law violations during 2008 to 2010 on different campuses. In 2008, Marquette reported 14 fewer violations than the University of Wisconsin-Madison with 884 compared to 898 in Madison. Over the 3-year period, Marquette has reported a total of 2,555 liquor law violations and 132 drug abuse violations to the government.

“We want to be transparent, and we want people who belong to the Marquette community to be, because it helps us prevent crime around campus, and it gives us valuable information that help us catch the bad guy that might be out there,” Shaw said.

While comparing numbers across schools can be interesting, Assistant Dean of Students Erin Lazzar said it’s not as simple as just looking at the numbers.

“It is really difficult to compare one school to the next. It is like comparing apples to pears,” Lazzar said. She said one difference is the nature of the campus security officers at different campuses. For example, Lazzar said public safety officers at Wisconsin system schools are sworn police officers, whereas DPS officers at Marquette are not.

Roland Corvington, the assistant vice president and director of public safety and emergency preparedness at Saint Louis University, said he believes public safety officers at universities play a key role in protecting students nationwide.

“The extent to which a university police or public safety department is able to make the university community aware of potential threats and provide tips to mitigate such threats can help reduce victimization,” Corvington said.

Another statistic from the data shows that five forcible sexual offenses took place at Marquette from 2008 to 2010. In comparison, there were two at Saint Louis and three at Loyola University in Chicago. However, Southern Methodist University, located in Dallas, had 10 forcible sexual offenses over the past three years.

Cigarette sales up in smoke 2009 tax increase linked to decline in tobacco advertising

By Eric Oliver eric.oliver@marquette.edu

Since President Barack Obama passed a law raising the federal tax on cigarettes from $0.39 a pack to $1.01, the amount of money spent on tobacco advertising and consumption has fallen dramatically, a recent report by the Federal Trade Commission revealed.

According to the Sept. 21 report, the 2012 iteration of the FTC’s yearly Cigarette and Smokeless Tobacco Reports, the country’s largest cigarette companies have spent much less on advertising and promotion since the tax was implemented. Overall,

promotional spending declined from $9.94 billion in 2008 to $8.53 billion in 2009, and again to $8.05 billion in 2010.

In its report, the FTC said the largest spending category for tobacco promotion in both 2009 and 2010 was spending on price discounts given to cigarette retailers or wholesalers intended to reduce the price of cigarettes for consumers. While 78.2 percent of cigarette companies’ promotion budgets, or $6.67 billion, was spent to finance such price reductions in 2009, by 2010, that amount rose to 80.7 percent, or $6.49 billion.

Overall, in 2010 only 282.0 billion packs of cigarettes were sold or given away to wholesalers and retailers in the United States, a noticable decline from to 290.3 billion in 2009 and 322.6 billion in 2008.

Perhaps in response to the increased price of cigarettes, sales

of smokeless tobacco, which was not affected by the increased tax, appear to have risen after a brief decline last year. The value of smokeless tobacco sales rose to $2.78 billion in 2010 after falling to $2.61 billion in 2009 from $2.76 billion in 2008.

The overall weight of smokeless products reached 120.50 million pounds in 2010, a threeyear high when compared to the 119.90 million pounds sold in 2008 and 117.70 million pounds sold in 2009.

According to Melissa Horn from the anti-tobacco advocacy group SmokeFree Wisconsin, smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the state.

Every year, more than 7,700 residents die from tobacco-related causes and 7,400 Wisconsinites light up for the first time.

Obama: First Wisconsin visit in 220 days Priest: Mueller becomes Jesuit I think we are pretty split ...There may be more active Dems on campus, but (College Republicans) have a pretty good membership.”

Shannon Rohn, Senior, College of Arts & Sciences

bring justice to those who killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens.

Marquette College Democrats, who had been handing out tickets to the rally in the week leading up to it, tweeted before the event that 900 Marquette students would be attending the event, signifying what they call an “enthusiasm gap.”

“The Marquette student body is pretty liberal, pretty democratic,” said Andy Suchorski, Wisconsin College Democrat chair and senior in the College of Arts & Sciences. “We will see how many we can get to volunteer, but they are very fired up to reelect the president.”

While Suchorski acknowledged that some of the students who signed up for the event only signed up for a chance to see the president, he believes ‘a vast majority’ of them would consider themselves supporters.

“There is no evidence that the president has a decline (in college support) from 2008,” Suchorski said.

Shannon Rohn, vice-chair of the College Republicans and a fellow senior in the College of Arts & Sciences, disagreed about Marquette having a liberal campus, instead suggesting

that the student body is fairly mixed politically.

“I think we are pretty split (politically) from what I would say,” Rohn said. “There may be more active Dems on campus, but (College Republicans) have a pretty good membership. There are people who are Republican who don’t get involved.” “(Being liberal is) how college students are thought to be, but I feel like there are students who are Republican who don’t talk about it.”

The College Democrats also asked students to sign a pledge to vote for the president and Senate candidate Tammy Baldwin when they signed up to get a ticket through the organization.

Rohn said she is skeptical that all of the students who signed up for a ticket will actually vote for Obama and Baldwin.

“I’m not going to dispute that 900 people went to the event,” Rohn said. “But I know personally how the sign ups were done.

You had to go through the College Democrats to get the ticket.

I don’t think there are 900 people who agreed to the pledge.”

The rally was Obama’s first visit to Wisconsin in 220 days, as he did not stop in the state during

this summer’s recall election.

Suchorski said, though, that the visit showed the president is committed to winning the state in November.

“The nature of rallies is not to swing people but to energize your base and continue momentum,” Surchorski said. “You’ve seen the president gain momentum since the convention, but by him coming here right now you see he takes the state seriously and is not taking anything for granted.”

The latest Marquette Law School poll, released last Wednesday, showed Obama leading Romney in Wisconsin by a 54 to 40 margin. Other polls depicted a closer race but still showed the president with the edge in Wisconsin, with the RealClearPolitics.com average of all recent polls having Obama up by 7.8 points.

Rohn said there is work Republicans need to do to make up that deficit.

“I think we need to have more of a strategy in Wisconsin,” Rohn said. “We definitely need more marketing, we definitely need to be emphasizing how Mitt is like (Wisconsin Gov.) Scott Walker and wants real change. We have a lot of work ahead of us.”

Other speakers at Saturday’s rally included Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, U.S. Sen. Herb Kohl and Congresswoman and current U.S. Senate candidate Tammy Baldwin. Green Bay Packers players Jermichael Finley and Desmond Bishop were also in attendance.

28 years after initial vows

through many steps, which culminated with the final vows he took Sunday. After spending two years as a novice, he took his first vows of poverty, chastity and obedience in 1984.

Once Mueller took these vows, he became a scholastic and received his Masters of Divinity from the Weston School of Theology in 1992. He was then ordained a Catholic priest eleven years after joining the Society of Jesus, but was not yet a fullfledged Jesuit.

The next step for Mueller was his Tertianship, which occurs after ordination, in which Mueller was evaluated by the regional provincial and then in Rome.

The Superior General of the Society of Jesus, the Very Rev. Adolfo Nicolás, decided to have Mueller take his final vows following the evaluation.

Besides the original three vows Mueller had already taken, the final vows included a vow of special obedience to the pope.

“When I make these (final) vows, they’re again a perpetual commitment on my part,” Mueller said. “It’s a lifelong commitment. But this time, the condition that was on them

before is no longer there. (The Jesuits are) saying we think you worked out. You’re in.”

The condition on the first vows, taken after novitiate (a period of introduction), is the Society of Jesus maintaining the right to release a Jesuit from his vows if it deems the Jesuit in question to not be where he should be spiritually.

“It’s somewhat like making tenure (you’re already a professor, but now you’re a ‘full’ one).

It’s somewhat like making partner in a law firm (you’re already a member of a law firm, but now you’re a ‘full one),’” the Rev. James Martin of the weekly Jesuit publication “America” wrote on taking final vows. Thus, in allowing Mueller to take his final vows, the Society of Jesus returns the commitment that he made to them 28 years ago.

“I decided to become a Jesuit when I was a student here. I did it because I thought, that’s what God wants me to do. I think Marquette students could benefit from listening for that kind of call from God,” Mueller said.

I decided to become a Jesuit when I was a student here. I did it because I thought, that’s what God wants me to do.”

Autism: Students assist organizations with advocacy, awareness

Children play at a camp run by Easter Seals of Southeastern Wisconsin for people with autism in mid-September at Marquette University High School.

behavioral disabilities.

Burns said Einstein Productions is a great way to get the Milwaukee and Marquette communities talking about and understanding autism.

“This cooperation will not only assist both groups in a deeper understanding of the world but will also create the start of a greater knowledge of (autism spectrum disorders),” Burns said.

Burns’ company is one of many in the Milwaukee area that serve people with autism and their families. While Einstein Productions is unique in that it uses technology training to help individuals with autism, all of the organizations work to educate the public about what autism is and how to reduce the stigma surrounding it.

What is Autism?

Autism is a lifelong neurological disorder that affects how a person perceives the world, interacts with other people and how they communicate, according to the Autism Society of Southeast Wisconsin. The inability to communicate like typical individuals makes it hard for individuals with autism to hold jobs, focus in school and take part in a community.

Each year, more children in the United States are diagnosed with autism than juvenile diabetes, AIDS and cancer, according to website of Autism Speaks, a leading autism research and advocacy organization.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the disorder is more prevalent in boys than girls. One in every 54 boys and one in every 252 girls are diagnosed annually.

While there is no single cause of autism, there are several explanations. According to Autism Speaks’ website, there are several genetic mutations that are connected to autism.

In addition to genetic causes, environmental stresses further increase a child’s risk. Some of these stresses include maternal illness during pregnancy and childbirth complications.

Autism Speaks Autism Speaks is an autism advocacy organization “dedicated to funding research into the causes, prevention, treatments and cure for autism; increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders; and advocating for the needs of individuals with autism and their families,” according to its website.

Bob and Suzanne Wright, who were the grandparents of a child with autism, founded Autism Speaks in February 2005. A $25 million donation from family friend Bernie Marcus allowed the organization to expand its reach in the areas of both research and advocacy.

Autism Speaks stands by four pillars for autism awareness: Science and Research, Advocacy, Awareness and Family Services. It based these pillars on the needs of children with autism, their families and the communities they live in.

Science and Research The organization has raised $180 million for national research to continue until 2014, said Mallory Walsh, events manager of the Autism Speaks’s Wisconsin chapter. The Wisconsin chapter has raised about $961,000.

Since the organization’s creation, it has created the Autism Speaks Autism Treatment Network, Autism Speaks Autism Genetic Resource Exchange and several other clinical programs.

The treatment network brings together several medical centers to provide treatment for autism.

The collaboration provides families with a place where they can get many different medical services for their children or family members. There are locations across the U.S. and Canada.

According to the genetic resource exchange program’s website, “The Autism Speaks’ Autism Genetic Resource Exchange is a research program for families who have two or more children on the autism spectrum. AGRE helps accelerate the pace of autism research by taking time-consuming steps out of

the hands of researchers, so they can spend their time and effort analyzing the data and looking for answers now. AGRE gathers DNA, clinical, and medical information from families throughout the United States, making it the world’s first collaborative resource for autism research worldwide.”

“We’ve changed the face of autism research,” said Mallory Walsh, walk events manager of Autism Speaks’ Wisconsin chapter.

Advocacy When Autism Speaks began, only one organization funded autism research at a state level in the U.S., Walsh said. Now 32 states provide support for autism through government assistance and insurance.

In 2004, then-Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle created a task force focusing on autism and the needs of parents of children with autism. After meeting with families of children with autism, Doyle and his task force developed several policy recommendations, including identifying standards for extending in-home intensive autism services and options for ensuring adequate state coverage by in-home intensive treatment providers, according to Easter Seals of Southeastern Wisconsin’s website.

According to the Autism Speaks website, on June 29, 2009, Doyle “signed S.B. 3 into law, requiring individual and group health insurance policies and plans, state health care plans and self-insured plans to provide health insurance coverage for the treatment of autism spectrum disorders. Treatment must be provided by a psychiatrist, a person practicing psychology or a social worker licensed or certified to practice psychotherapy.”

Wisconsin’s Medicaid program added the Children’s Longterm Support Waiver to provide an autism benefit for intensive in-home treatment services for individuals from birth to age 21. The services include support and service coordination, support home care, respite care,

day habilitation, supported employment, home modifications, transportation, adaptive aids, communication aids, specialized medical equipment, foster care, consumer education and more, according to Autism Speaks.

Awareness “A lot of the stories I’ve heard from families talk about how, when they’ve told people their child has autism, they’ve had to explain what autism is,” Walsh said. “We’ve been able to change that — I can say ‘he has autism,’ and more often than not, people know what I’m talking about.”

Autism Speaks has created many notable awareness initiatives, including the annual United Nations-sanctioned World Autism Awareness Day on April 2. Autism Speaks celebrates this event through its “Light It Up Blue” initiative, “a global initiative to help raise awareness about this growing public health concern,” according to its website.

Autism Speaks’ “Learn the Signs” campaign, which encourages families to seek out the early signs of autism, has received more than $316 million in donated media, including television, radio, print and Internet advertising.

Family Services Autism Speaks offers a range of services to help those living with an individual with autism, Walsh said. These services help support individuals with autism as well as families and communities affected by the disorder.

Walsh’s favorite part about Autism Speaks’ family services is the tool kits that are provided to families. She said the tool kits are large binders customized specifically for the needs of any particular child. The kits can be printed out for free from Autism Speaks’ website.

The 100 Day tool kit and the Asperger Syndrome and High Functioning Autism tool kit are designed specifically for families to make the best possible use of the 100 days following

their child’s diagnosis. The kits are customized for each family’s specific needs by assessing the severity of the child’s disorder through questionnaires and other forms of assessment.

“These kits help our community directly by giving them information and tips they need for living and treating autism,” Walsh said.

Autism Speaks offers tool kits for other individuals who are affected by autism. This gives school nurses, bus drivers, secretaries and others information on autism in order to make the child’s time in school easier, Walsh said.

Walsh also said that transitioning from childhood to adulthood can be especially difficult for children with autism. To make the transition easier, Autism Speaks offers a transitioning tool kit that helps families make the next step. The kit offers research on colleges, assisted living facilities and workforce resources.

“These tool kits are great for the families,” Walsh said. “The information is all in one place, so they don’t have to spend hours looking up information on Google.”

In addition to the tool kits, Autism Speaks holds three major fundraising events to help support families and children with autism.

Walk Now for Autism Speaks, a grassroots autism walk program, attracts thousands of participants yearly. According to its website, it is the organization’s “signature fundraising and awareness event, taking place in 95 communities across the United States, as well as in Canada.”

Last year’s event raised $3,000 for autism research and resources, Walsh said.

The walk brings individuals with autism and their families together for support and fun.

“They come and say ‘Oh my, God, I’m not alone,’” Walsh said. “It’s amazing.”

The 2013 Walk Now for Autism Speaks will be held on April 27 at a location that is to be determined, although Walsh said it is usually held at the Wisconsin State Fairgrounds.

The organization also holds a resource fair, which allows about 30 vendors that serve the autistic community to meet with families.

“There are barbers that work especially well with children with autism, (and) there are colleges that cater specifically to autism (at the resource fair),” Walsh said.

The organization’s newest fundraising event, Ride for Autism Speaks, will bring the motorcyclist community together to support autism research and treatment. The inaugural event will take place on July 13, 2013.

Walsh said Autism Speaks hopes to develop a marathon run program in the future.

In addition to its major fundraising efforts, Autism Speaks hosts several community events that aim to bring families together. On Oct. 14, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m., Autism Speaks will hold Autism Day at Discovery World, located at 500 N. Harbor Dr. The first 100 people to RSVP will receive free admission into the event.

“A lot of our events focus on the little kids,” Walsh said. “This is going to be the perfect opportunity for older individuals to en-

News

Tuesday, September 25, 2012 joy some fun.”

Walsh is the only employee for Autism Speaks’ Wisconsin chapter because there is little awareness of the program in the state.

The chapter is always looking for interns, volunteers and leaders to help support the cause.

“Working with Autism Speaks is a great way to give back to the community and learn about autism,” Walsh said.

Autism Speaks U

Autism Speaks brings awareness to university campuses through its Autism Speaks U chapters. The program is designed to support college students in their awareness, advocacy and fundraising efforts for Autism Speaks.

Taylor Levicki, a junior in the College of Health Sciences, started an Autism Speaks U chapter at Marquette. She currently has about 100 interested students and hopes to begin contacting them to get involved.

“Back in February, I stumbled across this organization on the Autism Speaks Twitter page,” Levicki said. “I then started to research the program and read the benefits about having a chapter. I have a passion for autism and believe that this campus is missing a strong presence for the cause.”

Since this is the chapter’s first semester on campus, Levicki aims to build membership. Last year, Levicki was able to pull together a team for Walk Now for Autism Speaks, raising more than $5,000.

“Taylor and her team have been really active,” Walsh said.

Levicki hopes the chapter will make more people aware of autism and bring in more support for Autism Speaks’ cause.

“Our main goal is educating students and the surrounding Milwaukee community on the issues and prevalence of this disorder,” she said. “We’re going to continue the mission of Autism Speaks and work to build awareness and acceptance of autism spectrum disorder.”

Easter Seals of Southeastern Wisconsin For more than 75 years, Eas-

ter Seals of Southeastern Wisconsin has provided services for individuals with special needs. According to the foundation’s website, one of every nine individuals it serves is on the autism spectrum.

One of the services Easter Seals offers is early intervention, which provides intensive inhome applied behavior analysis therapy to children.

Nicole Berlowski, the autism services coordinator at Easter Seals, said supporting the families of individuals with autism is just as important as supporting the individuals with autism.

“It’s a team effort where everyone needs to be supported,” she said. “The families need someone to talk to, (and) we work as a support system for them.”

Berlowski said diagnosing and living with autism is difficult because of the wide range of characteristics and symptoms. She credits awareness and advocacy for the increase in diagnosis.

“Education in the last few years helps people see the signs and get a diagnosis quicker than ever before,” she said.

Like Autism Speaks, Easter Seals helps newly diagnosed families with its Make the First Five Count campaign, including its Ages and Stages Questionnaire.

According to the Easter Seals website, “When kids get the right treatment and therapy they need before the age of five, they are ready to learn alongside their peers, build lifelong skills and achieve their dreams.” The questionnaire is designed to help families determine if their child is developing skills at the right pace.

Alpha Xi Delta’s Theta Epsilon Chapter at Marquette Alpha Xi Delta is a women’s fraternity founded in 1893. Its philanthropy focuses on autism awareness. According to the fraternity’s national website, Alpha Xi Delta has raised more than $800,000 for Autism Speaks since partnering with the organization in 2009.

Marquette’s chapter is focused on supporting autism awareness as well as fundraising.

“What draws our girls into our

philanthropy is that we get to see what changes we are making in our society,” said Lorena Martinez, a philanthropy co-chair for the fraternity and a junior in the College of Health Sciences. “We become truly passionate with every event we do. It is rewarding and fulfilling.”

For Sarah Glowinski, another philanthropy co-chair for the fraternity and a junior in the College of Education, supporting Alpha Xi Delta’s philanthropy hits home. Glowinski’s cousin was diagnosed with autism.

“Having that personal connection makes the work I do for AXiD very important,” she said.

The Alpha Xi Delta women take part in several Autism Speaks events, including Walk Now for Autism Speaks.

“Walk Now is the one big event that brings the whole community together,” Glowinski said. “It helps the community see that AXiD is really supporting the cause.”

The fraternity hosts Pass Xi Syrup and Pop Xi Corn, which raise money for Autism Speaks.

The fraternity’s most notable effort is Light it Up Blue. It held its inaugural Light It Up Blue event last year by lighting the face of Cudahy Hall blue to show support for autism awareness and research.

Hope for the Future

All the work these organizations do will help Wisconsinites learn and understand autism better, Berlowski said.

“There are a lot of misconceptions,” she said. “All the children we work with are wonderful, and there’s so much that we can learn from them just by interacting and supporting them.”

For Carole Burns and everyone at Einstein Productions, this message resonates loud and clear.

“Autism is not a disease,” Burns said. “It cannot be cured, but it can be understood and can be overcome with the correct supports. No two individuals with (Autism Spectrum Disorder) are the same – they will have as many various strengths, interests and personality traits as (typical) individuals have. Just take time to know them and you will never regret it.”

Home is where the heart is

Doors Open Milwaukee showcases a variety of buildings and historical landmarks every year.

How many students have heard about the upcoming Milwaukee Film Festival, and how many of those who have heard about it will actually go? How many people have seen a play at the Milwaukee Repertory Theater or visited the Milwaukee Ballet? Perhaps most importantly, how many of us have ever randomly stumbled upon a shop or a low-key event without having first heard about it through someone or something else?

That’s right, ladies and gentlemen.

We’re talking about parts of the city that extend past Wisconsin Avenue and State Street. Outside the comfort zones of 10th and 20th. We’re talking about the real Milwaukee.

Unfortunately, the farthest “off campus” some students get is the Bradley Center, and it’s probably only to watch the men’s basketball team play.

By spending four (or more) years in a dynamic environment like Milwaukee, you’d be selling yourself short if you only stay on campus. This city offers an endless of variety of things to do during your time at Marquette.

We’re sure you’ve heard about Summerfest before (if you haven’t, we strongly suggest you look it up immediately).

But that’s not the only wonderful festival Milwaukee offers. There are countless ethnic festivals such as Polish Fest, Festa Italiana, African World Festival, Indian Summer Festival and more. We encourage you to check these types of events out, even if your heritage doesn’t match the name of the festival.

This past weekend was the annual Doors Open Milwaukee event presented

by Historic Milwaukee, Inc. This unique experience allows the public to see more than 125 buildings downtown and across the city in ways they have never seen

before. You can go backstage at the Pabst Theater, tour the Pfister Hotel, explore the 149-year-old original Mount Sinai Hospital and much more.

So maybe you missed the incredible opportunity to discover Milwaukee this year, but unless you’re a senior, you have no excuse to not partake in the experience next year. If you did take advantage of Doors Open Milwaukee 2012, let us know what you found. We’d love to hear about it.

This would be the paragraph where we suggest some other obvious places you should visit, like the Art Museum or Miller Park. But we’re not going to. Instead, we’re going to suggest that on a day when you have nothing to do, you visit that place you drove past on the bus last week.

You’ve never heard of it before, but you thought it looked interesting. Go there.

Not the Milwaukee County Zoo or the Riverside Theater – although both of those places are great. But go find the undiscovered treasures this city has to offer. We’re sure you’ll be glad you did.

Milwaukee is one of the greatest cities in the world. OK, we may be a little bit biased, but you have to admit it is pretty awesome. For many students, this could be the only time you’ll ever live in this city, so make the most of it while you’re here.

The leaves are starting to change, and the temperature is dropping. Get out and explore the city before three feet of snow prevent you from walking outside in below-freezing weather.

We don’t want to sound too “travel agency-y,” but we do hope that during your time here, you are able to find the niche of Milwaukee that resonates with you. The city is filled with diversity and hidden jewels that fly beneath the radar. We challenge you to find them. Share them if you wish – or keep them all to yourself.

“ EXPLORATION

WE SHALL NEVER CEASE FROM

AND THE END OF

ALL EXPLORING WILL BE TO ARRIVE WHERE WE STARTED AND KNOW THE PLACE FOR THE FIRST TIME.

”

-T. S. ELIOT

Caroline Campbell This weekend, I braved a nine hour car trip to travel home to Missouri for a family wedding. As I drove away with Milwaukee in my rearview mirror, I was sad that I would be away from my beloved Marquette for three whole days. I was gone all summer; wasn’t that enough?

Though it may have seemed impossible to me freshman year, over the past six semesters, Marquette and Milwaukee have become my home.

Nine hours later, however, as I spotted the Kansas City skyline peeking over the Missouri River for the first time in more than a month, my heart swelled up with happiness for being home.

So what is home? I wondered. Is it possible to have more than one?

The place you grow up shapes an important part of who you are. You learn the values you will take with you into adulthood from the place you grow up and the people there who raise you.

So what happens when you leave that place? You don’t forget everything about it and take on a completely new identity because you live somewhere else. Well, some people might, but I definitely did not.

It wasn’t easy to leave the comfort of family, friends and a city I know as

well as the back of my hand. But I did, and I am so glad I did. That experience played a huge role in shaping me into the individual I am today.

As I prepare to graduate at the end of this year (fingers crossed) and search for a job and a place to go next, I am preparing to leave a home behind and make a new one somewhere else. It’s exciting for me to think that I will meet new people, find new places to explore and wonder what my next home will teach me.

Sometimes it can be hard to know what to say when people ask me where I live or where I am from. When people ask that, they are often looking for an answer that will tell them something about me. If I just say “Kansas City” or just say “Milwaukee,” it doesn’t paint the whole picture. For a while, I have struggled to find a way to embrace both places as home. Like many things in life, there is no perfect distinction, no short answer. Realizing that is important when trying to define “home.”

I dislike the phrase “home away from home” because it implies that my second home isn’t really a place I love, it’s just a stand-in for the place that I’m from.

Marquette is not a stand-in home. This school and this city have become so welcoming to me that, no matter what happens after next May, no matter where I end up next, they will always hold equal billing in my heart with the city where I grew up. I have learned so much over the past three years here, and I am learning more every passing week.

The Jesuits say their home is the road, but I make my homes in the stops along it. My birth certificate will always say Missouri and my diploma will always say Marquette. And I couldn’t be happier to call both those places home. caroline.campbell@marquette.edu

Twins divided by colleges, not by spirit Sept. 19, 2012, might have been just another school day at Marquette, but for me it marked a milestone in my life. I had been away from my twin sister, Jill, for an entire month – something I had never done in my previous 18 years of life.

Growing up as a twin, I did almost everything with my other half, whether it was going to summer camp, afterschool activities such as synchronized swimming, wearing matching outfits or merely hanging out with the same group of friends. But when we began high school, we started taking different classes and doing different extracurricular activities – Jill played tennis and soccer while I wrote for the school newspaper and played softball and basketball. Although we were not able to spend much time together during the day anymore, we still lived in the same house and got to see each other every night.

This past summer Jill and I worked at Hidden Valley Camp, where we had been long-time campers and were now old enough to be on the staff. We spent our last nine weeks before beginning our adventures at college by living in the woods, experiencing one of our favorite childhood memories together.

I left for college less than 30 hours after coming back from camp. This quick turnaround from Portland to Milwaukee did not give me enough time to

comprehend what was really going on.

I came to Marquette knowing only one incoming freshman. I was leaving everyone I knew: my family, friends and most importantly, my twin (or my “built-in best friend,” as we like to think).

The first few days, I felt alone. When my roommate and I would walk around campus, I could not recognize a single person, whereas she was able say hello to someone she knew every so often. I began rethinking my choice: could I be happy in a place where I had no past connections? The ability to go home and always have someone to talk to was now a phone call away, something I never had to think about before coming to college.

But when my twin and I finally had our first Skype date, I realized everything was going to be okay. All I needed to do was pick up the phone (or computer) and call. As twins, we have an everlasting bond, a connection that cannot be broken – even when we are thousands of miles away. Although we cannot share every single detail about our lives like we could before, she was, and forever will be, a defining part of me.

This struggle of finding my niche in a brand new community was hard.

My niche had always been my twin.

If I couldn’t find a friend to go to the soccer game with or just someone to talk to, Jill was always there.

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.

But I know I’m not the only one experiencing twin separation. Freshman Margaret McKenna also struggled adjusting to going to a college without her twin. She said it’s difficult to hear about her sister’s college experiences and not being able to know any of her new friends. I think this lack of knowing is one of the most frustrating things because as twins, you spend most of your time together and understand almost everything about each other. So when this relationship is moved to separate college settings, it becomes very distant.

With no one to turn to, I was fortunate enough to have a roommate who welcomed me with open arms from day one. My floormates have also been a monumental help in making this transition easy. Technology has been especially helpful, allowing my sister and me to stay in touch.

I know I am always going to miss my sister whether we’re separated by one town or a thousand miles. But luckily, I have a community like Marquette that has allowed me to start a new chapter in my life. It has allowed me to find a niche filled with new friends and fellow students that make up the Marquette family I have gratefully joined.

MANNO: The boy behind the president

By Tony Manno anthony.manno@marquette.edu

I somehow found myself on stage behind President Obama during his campaign rally at Summerfest Grounds this past Saturday.

Needless to say, it was a hoot.

One moment I was squeezed into an aisle to hear Sen. Herb Kohl and Congresswoman-slash-Senatorial-candidate Tammy Baldwin, and the next I was picked randomly to go on stage before the president spoke. I’m assuming it was the heads-up penny I found on the way down to Summerfest Grounds – or maybe I should just stuff myself in the corner next to the stage at campaign rallies from now on and hope for the best.

After restraining myself from making faces at the Secret Service like they were the British Royal Guard, we hopped up on stage just before the president was introduced.

Sophomore leads MU in kills, embraces larger role

Brewers still in the race thanks to Bud

Gosh (11) picked up 12 kills in a three-set sweep over Syracuse at the Al McGuire Center in the Big East opener.

Gosh responds well after limited 2011, has been a big asset so far

By Patrick Leary patrick.leary@marquette.edu

The chants of “OH MY! GOSH!” sounded from the student section. Sophomore outside hitter Lindsey Gosh finished off another kill, and Marquette surged ahead of a very competitive Syracuse team late in the first set.

Gosh, who posted a team-leading 12 kills in the sweep (25-19, 25-12, 25-20) of the Orange in the Big East opener, extended her team-leading kills total to 149, (3.24 kills per set). The Golden Eagles improved to 10-3 on the season.

“Syracuse, we knew, would show us a lot of different looks,” coach Bond Shymansky said.

“They have some really dynamic athletes. They’re a team we’re better off catching at the beginning of the season.”

Gosh baffled the Orange from the opening point. She was the first player on the court to three kills and helped the Golden Eagles pull away, finishing the set with seven kills.

“It’s one of my goals to be efficient,” Gosh said. “It helps the team out. Bisky (junior setter

Elizabeth Koberstein) can give us the ball and we can put it away.”

Gosh, who played sparingly in her 2011 freshman campaign, has seen her role expand in 2012.

She now rarely leaves the court unless Shymansky feels she needs a rest or Marquette is dominating its opponent.

“I knew my role would be as big as it is,” Gosh said. “In the spring the coaches were already preparing me to play outside, to play all the way around and to be able to serve, receive and hit out of the back row.”

Even with her early success, Gosh’s new position demands a lot of her.

“I get really tired fast,” Gosh said, “especially since I play all six rotations and have to jump serve. I use a lot of energy.”

Perhaps her greatest weapon on the court is Gosh’s jump serve, which causes chaos for opposing back rows as they try to dig out the “rockets” she sends over the net. However, with great power comes great risk. Not only does Gosh lead the team in aces with 26, she leads Marquette in service errors with 38. She only connects on 79 percent of her serves, while the rest of the team averages well over 90 percent.

“I work with (assistant coach) Michaela (Franklin) on my toss because it’s so all over the place,” Gosh said. “It helps me gain more

I’ve never really had my own little fan section.

Lindsey Gosh , sophomore outside hitter

confidence, and that adrenaline keeps building up. It helps the team out because when I pull other teams out of (their) system, it makes it easier for us to get a block or a free ball.”

Shymansky noticed Gosh already improving with her serve against Syracuse.

“She was great from the service line again today, keeping them off balance and putting rockets over the net,” Shymansky said. “She was also really good for us as an attacker.

Those are dimensions within our team that are really growing.”

Gosh said her coach makes sure she knows that she plays a huge part in the team’s success.

“When we had our first scrimmage, Bond pulled me out when I went to the back row and told me that he expected me to lead us in kills and lead us in aces,” Gosh said. “I just kind of knew my role from the get-go.”

In addition to her coach, the fans support Gosh in a way she has never experienced.

“It’s really exciting,” Gosh said. “I’ve never really had my own little fan section. They try to get #GoshNation trending on Twitter. It’s different and helps build that adrenaline.”

Ultimately, Gosh has big plans for herself and the team as they head into the thick of Big East play.

“Our team could go to the NCAA Tournament if we really worked hard,” Gosh said. “I need to keep doing what I’m doing and gaining more confidence because I’m a huge asset to the team.”

The Milwaukee Brewers are truly amazing.

On Aug. 16, I told a co-worker in Iowa that the Brewers would go 35-5 and make the playoffs.

OK, so they had 46 games left and have gone 27-10 since then.

But consider this: they were 53-64 at the time and were 11.5 games behind Pittsburgh for the second wild card spot.

They had been 13-18 since the All-Star break.

St. Louis, who currently holds a 3.5-game lead for the second wild card spot, was 64-53 and 18-13 since the All-Star break.

Since then, the Brewers have passed five teams and have gained nine games on the Cardinals with nine games left.

On Aug. 16, the Brewers were fresh off a three-game sweep at the hands of the Colorado Rockies and had lost five of their previous six games.

Their bullpen was a complete disaster, and their offensive players not named Aramis Ramirez and Ryan Braun were doing nothing.

There was no logical reason to believe they would have a chance at making the postseason.

But, thanks to another genius move by commissioner Bud Selig – and I mean that with all seriousness – the Brewers have stolen more headlines in Wisconsin than the Packers.

That’s no easy task.

Let’s be honest, however. If Selig hadn’t created a second wild card team, the Brewers would be making tee times in October along with 21 other teams.

The Atlanta Braves have a nine game lead on the Brewers for the first wild card spot. That means whatever team does earn the second spot will be traveling to Atlanta for a one-game playoff for a chance to take on either Cincinnati or Washington in the NLDS. After going 5-2 on the first two legs of their three-city, 10game road trip against teams who are or were contending for playoff spots, the Brewers have a chance to make the playoffs for the second straight year for the first time since 1981-82.

They still need help from the Cardinals, who continue their series in Houston today and tomorrow before hosting Washington and Cincinnati to finish the season. The Brewers play the Reds in Cincinnati and then See Brewers, page 13

women’s lacrosse

Game one in the books for women Bathon picks up first MU goal, defense plays Irish tenaciously

By Kyle Doubrava kyle.doubrava@marquette.edu

The Marquette women’s lacrosse team can exhale now that the program’s first ever game is in the books.

The Golden Eagles played Big East rival Notre Dame on Saturday in South Bend, Ind., in their first game of the fall exhibition schedule. An official score was not kept, but coach Meredith Black was satisfied with the effort put forth.

“It was very exciting for everyone, the coaches and the players,” Black said. “We’ve only been practicing for two weeks, so the things we had gotten done in practice over those two weeks we did well on the field. That’s really all we can ask for as coaches. They worked hard, and it was a really fun experience.”

Black noted the Irish had much more success finding the goal than the Golden Eagles

did, but she still gave praise to the defense for competing against a team of Notre Dame’s capability.

Freshman midfielder Hayley Baas thought one of the reasons the Irish played well was due to their experience level and the type of the competition they play, but she has confidence the Golden Eagles will one day match their level of play.

“They’re a very, very good team,” Baas said. “They’re definitely a better team than us right now because they’ve been together for so long, but I think if we work as hard as we did for the last couple of weeks and continue to improve throughout the year, we can get on their caliber.”

Marquette scored two goals on the day, the first coming from senior midfielder Katie Bathon.

The Pleasantville, N.Y., native said scoring the program’s first goal did not cross her mind as she took the shot, but she is proud to be a part of history.

“I didn’t know what to do right after (I scored),” Bathon said. “Then I realized that I had just scored against Notre See First, page 13

the facts: Marquette will have its long unbeaten streak at Valley Fields put to the test with 7-2-1 Louisville coming to town. The Cards are 1-1-1 in conference play after dropping a 2-1 decision at Notre Dame, tying Syracuse 1-1 and crushing St. John’s 6-0 at Cardinal Park. Louisville is led offensively by Angelika Uremovich’s 8 goals and 18 total points, while Erin Yenney has chipped in another four scores and three assists. Goalkeeper Chloe Kiefer has let in nine goals so far this season while recording 24 saves.

Marquette will have to play lights out in the second half as Louisville has scored 17 of its 26 goals after halftime.

Brewers: Playoff run still in the ‘Cards’

First: Effort pleases Black

host Houston and San Diego.

Los Angeles is tied with the Brewers entering today giving Milwaukee more stiff competition down the stretch.

How have the Brewers done it? They lead the National League in runs scored, home runs, runs batted in, slugging percentage, stolen bases, extra base hits, strikeouts and strikeouts per nine innings.

They also lead the league in blown saves (27), which means they could’ve been challenging the Braves for that first wild card spot had they cut that mark in half and made this entire column unnecessary.

But that’s why the Brewers have been so entertaining – and frustrating – to watch this year. You just don’t know what you’re going to get.

Dame, and I got really excited. I started jumping on my teammates, and they started hugging and grabbing me. It was a great feeling, and I’m so honored to be a part of it.”

Bathon hopes the team can take the time over the fall to improve on some skills that the Golden Eagles will need in order to keep up in the Big East. Among those include going after ground balls, running the ball up the field, and taking a shot on goal even when it may not go in.

“Just the little things like that which are easily fixable,” Bathon said. “I think that we’ll definitely work on those over the next couple months and be ready when we face them again in the spring.”

Up next for Marquette is its

At least you didn’t until Aug. 16. In their 37 games since then, they have lost just two games in which they led at some point during the game.

The bullpen combination of Jim Henderson, Francisco Rodriguez and John Axford has been nearly untouchable.

The trio has allowed just 14 earned runs in 46 1/3 innings (3.02 ERA).

One thing that has flown under the radar for this team has been the emergence of its defense.

The Brewers have a .984 fielding percentage, ranking fifth in the National League this year. Last year, when they probably had a better team talent-wise, they ranked No. 11 in the league with a .982 fielding percentage.

Yes, .02 percent can make that much of a difference. In 2011, they could afford errors in the field because their bullpen was indestructible. This year, not so much.

I don’t have a crystal ball to predict what is going to happen over the next week. Despite their run, the Brewers still have a lot of ground to make up. The Cardinals are going to have to help them out by losing more than they win.

And the Brewers are going to have to keep winning much more than they lose. But it sure beats not having anything to look forward to than checking the calendar to see when the Packers play next, doesn’t it? michael.locicero@marquette.edu

first home game in team history.

The Golden Eagles will square off this Saturday against Grand Valley State at Valley Fields.

Black was not looking ahead to Saturday’s match before the Notre Dame tilt, but now she is excited for the team to play on its own territory.

“We do like to take it one game at a time, so now that the first game’s over, I think it’s going to be all about this weekend,” Black said. “I think it’s going to be great to be home.

Now that they know what it’s like to travel, playing at home will make it that much more fun.”

Baas echoed Black’s eagerness.

“We’re really excited to show our school what Marquette lacrosse is,” Baas said.

UW is back for latest installment of budding rivalry Game has taken on greater atmosphere, importance recently

By Matt Trebby matthew.trebby@marquette.edu

On Wednesday night at Valley Fields, the No. 10 Marquette Golden Eagles will host the Wisconsin Badgers in what has become their second biggest rivalry game of the season.

The Badgers are in their third season under head coach John Trask and finished 10-8-2 in 2011. Like Marquette, Wisconsin barely missed out on the NCAA Tournament last fall.

The Badgers won only four games in Trask’s first season in 2010, and although their start to this season has been slower than they would have hoped for, the program is still progressing in the right direction.

“They reflect more of the Big Ten,” Marquette head coach Louis Bennett said. “They’re stronger, and they have the ability to lock the defense up.

Coach Trask is established as a very good coach in college soccer. As a player, he played in the Big Ten, so he’s aware of the style and standard of what it takes to win in that league.”

This season, Trask’s team has

had a slow start and sits at 2-33 coming into its match against Marquette. The core of the team is returning, only losing last season’s second leading pointscorer in Joey Thiermann.

One key to the Badgers’ slide, however, is the absence of midfielder Tomislav Zadro. The senior was a first team All-Big Ten player last season but has yet to play this season due to injury.

Still, there is no lack of talent on this Badgers team. They have three players in TopDrawerSoccer.com’s 2012 Men’s Upperclassmen Top 100, with sophomore defender AJ Cochran listed as the country’s 28th ranked college player, Zadro at 58th, and sophomore David Caban coming in at 84th.

In last season’s game between the two sides in Madison, Eric Pothast gave Marquette a first half lead before Cochran leveled matters for the Badgers in the second.

Sophomore forward Kelmend Islami recalls the Badgers’ size and physical play on defense and hopes the Golden Eagles stick to what they do best in keeping their attack close to the ground.

“I remember their backline was all big,” Islami said. “They tried to body us up and were good in the air. We have to avoid playing it over them.”

Marquette assistant coach Steve Bode played at UW-Milwaukee under Bennett, so he has seen many rivalries in the state. While the annual Milwaukee Cup match between Marquette and Milwaukee is the most heralded, Bode believes this game is gaining importance and intensity.

“It’s helping grow the college game in the state,” Bode said.

“We talk about the Milwaukee Cup every year in Milwaukee, but with Madison, it is growing and is getting better and better every year in terms of the rivalry and the product on the field every year.”

“It’s a huge game because it’s an in-state rival, so it will kind of be like the UWM atmosphere,” Islami said. “It will be hard to slow the game down, but if we can do that I think we can do some good things.”

As the rivalry grows, the game becomes more and more intense and unpredictable. In a game between two teams that are going in separate directions at the moment, Bennett says nothing leading up to this game for either side matters.

“Records go out the window,” Bennett said. “There are a couple of games on our schedule where it doesn’t matter what we’ve done. It’s about what you do in the moment.”

Hanson could end up running a lot of the same events that her sister ran, but she may also run more 800- or 1,000-meter races during indoor season. There will be plenty of opportunities for her to write her own legacy.

“We talk a lot about running and college in general,” Courtney said. “She has a good head on her shoulders and takes one day off a week. I think it can be tough during that transition to college to not overdo (the training), but she’s been consistent and not obsessive with mileage.”

Courtney ran most of her career against Conference USA competition, and now Hanson will be facing some of the same teams in the Big East.

Times have changed and will continue to change as Notre Dame, Syracuse and Pittsburgh will exit the Big East while Hanson is at Marquette.

Scoring opportunities may open up, but new teams like Southern Methodist and Memphis will be just as hungry for those points.

Hanson has made it a personal goal to run under 18 minutes in the 5,000-meter run. That would be the start to what Courtney could see being an All-American career at the end of Hanson’s time at Marquette.

“I certainly think (she) is a national caliber athlete,” Courtney said. “I wouldn’t be surprised if she was an All-American. She’s definitely capable of it.”

Most people nowadays know Jim McIlvaine as the tall guy with the awesome Marquette pants at the Bradley Center who plays the drums sometimes before games.

But from 1990 to 1994, McIlvaine was one of the most intimidating paint presences in the country, leaving Marquette as its all-time leading shot-blocker. He played under head coach Kevin O’Neill and was part of a team that made the Sweet Sixteen in 1994, the first trip that far into the postseason for the program since the 1977 national championship team coached by Al McGuire.

From there, he went on to play

in the NBA from 1994 to 2001 with the Washington Bullets for two seasons, the Seattle Supersonics for two and New Jersey Nets for his final three. Playing 14.8 minutes per game, McIlvaine blocked, on average, 1.7 shots, scoring 2.7 points and grabbing 3.1 rebounds.

After retiring from basketball, McIlvaine kept himself busy and still does as an eCare Manager for OPTIMA Batteries, Inc. And since 2005, he has been the color analyst for the Marquette Basketball Radio Network, where he broadcasts games with Steve “the Homer” True. matthew.trebby@marquette.edu

Team continues to rebound after losses to Duke, North Carolina

By Michael LoCicero michael.locicero@marquette.edu

Two improving Big East teams were no match for Marquette this weekend, even on the road.

The Golden Eagles pounded Seton Hall 4-0 on Friday before knocking off Rutgers 2-0 on Sunday afternoon.

Marquette is now 4-0-0 since consecutive losses to nationally ranked Duke and North Carolina two weekends ago.

“I think we’ve played really well as a team lately, and that continued this weekend with

two really good first halves,” coach Markus Roeders said.

Marquette scored five of its six goals in the first 45 minutes this weekend, putting the pressure on its opponents and forcing them to get desperate early on.

Senior forward Rachael Sloan scored in the third minute against Seton Hall. Senior midfielder Rachel Brown and junior midfielder Kate Reigle added goals in the 13th and 38th minutes, respectively, to put the game out of reach.

“I thought Friday was one of our better performances of the year,” Roeders said. “It was good to put an entire game together against a quality opponent.”

Freshman goalkeeper Amanda Engel continued her strong play

in the net, recording two more clean sheets, and was named Big East goalkeeper of the week on Monday.

Engel recorded seven saves in the two games and is now a perfect 4-0 this season with three shutouts.

Engel also earned College Sports Madness’ Big East Player of the Week accolades.

Senior defender Ally Miller was also named to the Big East honor roll Monday after helping anchor a backline that allowed just eight shots in the two games.

Against Rutgers, the Golden Eagles scored twice in three and a half minutes, with goals coming from junior midfielder Taylor Madigan and junior forward Maegan Kelly.

“As a team we did a great job

coming to an unfamiliar environment at Seton Hall and then erasing a bad memory against Rutgers,” Kelly said.

The Golden Eagles lost to South Florida, 3-2 in the semifinals of the Big East conference tournament in 2010 when the tournament was played at Rutgers. Kelly was a freshman at the time, and Marquette hadn’t been back to Piscataway, N.J., since.

The two wins improved Marquette to 7-2-1, and it will play five of its last seven games at home, where the Golden Eagles haven’t lost in the regular season since 2010.

Windy conditions frustrate young squad Prickette, Konieczki put up strong showing for upperclassmen

By Trey Killian robert.killian@marquette.edu

The Marquette golf team finished 11th out of 15 teams this weekend at the Windon Memorial Classic. While youth power was the common theme last weekend for the Golden Eagles, this tournament was a reversion back to upperclassmen leadership.

The team finished 69 over par and shot a 921 overall, keeping its scores for each round right around 300.

Senior Ryan Prickette led Marquette finishing 14 over par in a tie for 35th place on the individual leaderboard.

Prickette shot a 74 in the first round, then struggled with a 77

which it does not play in the regular season.

“Getting off to a fast start is always great,” Kelly said of Marquette’s Big East mark.

“Our division is definitely competitive, and getting three road wins isn’t easy to do.”

As has almost always been the case when things are going well, Marquette was able to outshoot its opponents last weekend and now has 110 more shots than its foes.

The Golden Eagles had 19 shots compared to just six for Rutgers and led the Pirates 17-8 in the shot department on Friday.

“When we’re putting pressure on opposing defenses, we’re tough to beat,” Kelly said.

“When things are going right, that’s what we do best.”

in the second before rounding out his score with a 76 in the third and final round.

Prickette said his putting could’ve been much better, but his experience with windy conditions gave him an advantage.

“My ball flight is a little bit different from a lot of the guys’,” Prickette said. “I have lower trajectory and it helps keep it under the wind. I hit the ball really well this weekend, but I feel like I could’ve putted better. I just kind of have to go back to drawing board and work on my putting game.”

Junior Corey Konieczki’s performance stood out most to coach Steve Bailey, especially after Konieczki didn’t make the lineup last week.

“I was really proud of Corey’s final round this weekend with him being one of our few upperclassmen,” Bailey said. “I felt like he was trying to make a statement that he belongs out there, and did a great job

controlling his golf ball down the stretch.”

Konieczki struggled early with scores of 78 in both the first and second rounds before closing out nicely with a one over par 72 in the final round.

He finished second on the team in a tie for 37th on the individual leaderboard at 15 over par.

Unlike Prickette, Konieczki said he felt good about his putting and that especially in the final round he had converted on some good up-anddowns and made some really good pars. As for the freshmen, who struggled with the wind, Konieczki said they were still young and will continue to get better with each tournament.

And the Windon in particular, Bailey said was one of the most challenging the team will play all year.

“These were the fastest greens we’ll play all year,” Bailey said.

“I think too often this weekend we didn’t execute, and we

struggled when we shortsighted ourselves. We also had to play a lot of really tough teams including some of the best we’ll play all year long.”

Zach Gaugert was the lowest scoring freshman for Marquette finishing at 18 over par in a tie for 46th place individually.

Bailey said the weather conditions definitely took a toll on his younger players but that there was still little room for excuses due to the team’s experience playing and practicing in the Midwest. Going forward Bailey hopes to see improvement with the team’s ball control.

“We are just going to focus on getting better control over our golf balls in adverse conditions,” Bailey said. “We’re used to these types of conditions and courses playing in the Midwest, but we missed our shots in the wrong places this weekend, and when you do that you can get lost pretty easily.”

The Marquette men’s tennis team took part in tournament-style action at the Purdue Fall Invitational this past weekend.

In doubles action, the duo of sophomores Cameron Tehrani and James Stark advanced to the second flight on Saturday with an 8-5 win over Toledo before dropping their second match to nationally-ranked host Purdue.

Junior Dan Mamalat scored a 6-2, 6-2 victory over Michael Tries of Western Michigan on Saturday and advanced in the main draw before losing in the next round 7-5, 6-4 to Zach Mueck of Xavier. Tehrani advanced in the main draw as well with a 6-3, 6-2 win over his opponent from DePaul, before dropping his second match 6-2, 6-0 to Green Bay’s Michael Tenzer.

The duo of Mamalat and sophomore David Packowitz was forced out of the main draw on Sunday due to injury after an 8-4 win over Iowa and an 8-6 win over DePaul on Saturday.

Stark fell in the quarterfinals of Flight B with a 8-2, 7-6 loss to Xavier’s Phil Diaz, and Packowitz suffered a tough 5-7, 6-2, 10-4 defeat at the hands of Toledo’s Brian Dudzik in the consolation draw.
