Infant death gap plagues city MKE Dept. of Health data shows striking racial divide

By Elise Angelopulos elise.angelopulos@marquette.edu

The rapid increase in the rate at which black babies in Milwaukee die in their first year of life is an “embarrassment to our city, to our country and to our state,” Mayor Tom Barrett said in a public statement last week.

Infant mortality rates dropped to a historic low in 2011, but new statistics show a reversal of such advancements, as white babies are now three times more likely to survive in infancy, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s compilation of the Milwaukee Department of Health’s data.

Former Law School Sensenbrenner Hall has been vacant since the opening of Eckstein Hall in 2010.

Building unused since 2010 despite calls for new use

By Simone Smith simone.smith@marquette.edu

Both former law school Sensenbrenner Hall and the plot of land once housing Hegarty’s Pub on 12th and Wells Streets have been vacant for months, but according to associate vice president and University Space and Infrastructure Committee chair Steve Duffy, the university presently has no plans for either space.

“At this time, we have no specific plans to share regarding Sensenbrenner or the piece of land on Wells and 12th,” Duffy said.

Sensenbrenner Hall has been unused since Eckstein Hall opened in 2010, and the old location of Hegarty’s Pub has been

vacant since October.

Duffy said the university has both the Master Planning Committee and the Space and Infrastructure Committee to address the use of buildings.

Duffy said finances and impact are factors in the planning process.

“It is an ever-changing scenario and financial resources are factored into all discussions,” Duffy said. “Making a determination about the use of one space can have an impact on many areas.”

Duffy said the university is currently in the middle of strategic planning that will aid in its decision making.

Arica VanBoxtel and Bill Neidhardt, president and vice president of Marquette Student Government, included a space usage audit as part of their platform when campaigning.

The space usage audit would re-evaluate all space on campus See Sensenbrenner, page 7

Charles Franklin, a visiting professor at Marquette Law School and a polling expert, joined Mike Gousha at Eckstein Hall yesterday to discuss the latest results of the Marquette Law School Poll, which Franklin directs. Gousha is a distinguished fellow in law and public policy at the law school.

This installment of the poll, which surveyed 705 registered

Wisconsin voters from April 2629, focused mostly on the recall of Gov. Scott Walker and the democratic primary on May 8.

Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, former Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk, State Sen. Kathleen Vinehout and Wisconsin Secretary of State Doug Lafollette will face off in the upcoming week for the spot to challenge Walker for governor in the recall election taking place June 5.

“We are coming into a historic election this fall,” Gousha said.

“This is important.”

Franklin said the race has taken a while to unfold.

“This is a developing race in that many candidates are just entering, such as (Milwaukee

Mayor Tom) Barrett,” Franklin said. “But entering the race late doesn’t seem to have hurt Barrett much.”

Barrett leads the Democratic field with 38 percent to Falk’s 21 percent. However, he is still edged out by Walker by 1 percent, 48 to 47, among registered voters.

“One thing that’s striking is that Walker is consistently getting 48 to 49 percent of the vote,” Franklin said. “We don’t usually see that consistency. People have made up their mind.”

Franklin added that Barrett is seeing a great deal of support from the Milwaukee area.

UW-Oshkosh prof. looks to save students’ money

By Eric Oliver eric.oliver@marquette.edu

The traditional textbook is on its way out the door. In its place is the new sleeker, cheaper e-book.

M. Ryan Haley is an associate professor of economics at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, but he is also a successful eTextbook publisher.

Haley recently started CoreTxt Plus Inc., his own independent textbook publishing company, and he is currently distributing free, introductory statistic textbooks to Oshkosh students.

“I got the idea back in ‘08 and ‘09,” Haley said. “The idea was to find a way to circumvent the publishing houses and how they kept putting out new editions way more frequently than they needed to. All the introductory level statistics classes aren’t changing a lot — 95 percent of the books have been full of concepts that have been the same for hundreds of years, so it isn’t necessary to make a new edition every few years.”

Haley said he and the rest of CoreTxt Plus Inc. have received outstanding reviews from both the students and faculty and are hoping to expand their offerings to cover more introductory courses. To do this, Haley uses an open-source program known as LaTeX. “It allows a single person to have as much power as a publishing house has,” Haley said.

Haley is creating and utilizing simple e-books, which, at their core, are just .pdf files.

Jon Pray, associate vice president for educational technology, is the person in charge of researching e-books at Marquette.

Pray knows from experience that the field is constantly changing.

“It’s such a changing landscape,” Pray said. “It’s really just sort of a Wild West ... It’s like every two weeks this stuff changes.”

The simple e-books of today are a trend, but Pray predicts they are just the beginning of the revolution.

Follett Higher Education Group is one of the companies doing ebook publishing.

In its 2011 report, the group predicted that paperback textbooks will continue to dominate the market for the next two to five years, but in the next five to seven years they predict standard textbook sales will drop to half of

d a e R

what they currently are.

Pray said by the time today’s high school freshmen are choosing a college to attend, eTextbooks will be standard practice.

“I’m going to imagine that three to five years from now this is going to be pretty commonplace,” Pray said. “Although we haven’t done any hard surveys here, what you read in the press is most college students today would still rather have a printed book. ... But if you go back to the high schools or the middle schools, students are all working with online textbooks. It’s cheap.

It’s fast. It’s easy.”

However, before they truly take off and become the norm, Pray said the e-readers will have to become a lot more interesting and interactive.

“It’s just reading; it’s what we call flat text.” Pray said. “You can highlight it, you can leave yourself a note, but there is nothing terribly engaging or interactive about it. So I think the publishers are probably going to try to address that.”

Currently, BookMarq has seen an increase in the sale of digital content over the last academic year, but according to Pray’s committee’s report, sales figures are still quite low, at around 100 units.

MU takes on summer Activities range from work to service to the circus and more

By Sarah Hauer sarah.hauer@marquette.edu

Popsicles and playgrounds once defined the summers of the past.

Now, after finals wrap up Marquette students will take a break from classes and abandon these classic traditions to spend their summers in different ways.

Furthering Careers Kelly Mackey, a fifth-year physical therapy student, will travel to Seattle, Wash. for a 10-week clinical program at an outpatient sports medicine clinic. She will drive out to Washington before working.

“I’m looking forward to going somewhere new,” Mackey said.

“But am nervous about working full-time with no pay.”

She will work with patients in the clinic in conjunction with physical therapists and will slowly become more independent in her work.

Jim Isaacs, a junior in the College of Business Administration, will be a product analyst intern in Milwaukee with Associated Bank this summer.

“I am excited to take my previous internship experience and apply it in a new setting,” Isaacs said. Isaacs also said he looks forward to spending the summer in Milwaukee.

Working Hard for the Money Bobby Heffernan, a freshman in the College of Health Sciences, said he is working at his own landscaping company, GotMulch? for a fifth summer. Heffernan said he started the company during high school after he landscaped his own yard.

“I thought, ‘why can’t I (landscape) for others and make money?’” Heffernan said. He now employs three other students.

Heffernan said he is not looking forward to having to get up early for work.

Luke Krajcik, a freshman in the

College of Education, will spend his days working at Panera Bread and Pet World in his hometown of Menomonee Falls, Wis. “Bunnies or bagels, I can hook you up,” Krajcik said.

Although he enjoys working with customers behind the register and on the floor, Krajcik said he is most looking forward to earning money.

Courtney Kronschnabel, a freshman in the College of Business Administration, will be a camp counselor at Camp Foley, where she has been a camper for the last 10 years. The camp is located in Pine River, Minn.

“The camp has made me who I am,” Kronschnabel said. “Being a counselor is just the next step.”

She will teach sailing and lacrosse at the camp.

“I love sharing my passion for sailing with other people,” she said.

“A lot of people don’t take the opportunity to learn how to sail.”

Hobbies Aliza McKamey, a junior in the College of Engineering, is going to improve her circus skills.

McKamey will take circus classes in Minnesota twice a week over the summer.

She said her favorite circus act to perform is the Spanish web, an aerial circus skill in which the performer secures a long braided rope suspended overhead around her ankle or wrist and hangs freely.

“The feeling when you are able to completely master a skill is amazing,” McKamey said. She has been practicing circus for three years.

ROTC Cody McNeil, a freshman in the College of Engineering, will travel with Navy ROTC to San Diego, Calif., for a four-week training seminar.

McNeil said he will sample future navy careers while living on base with NROTC members from around the country. They will learn about submarines, aviation, surface warfare and the marines.

“I’m looking forward to meeting other midshipmen and learning what it’s like to be in fleet,”

McNeil said.

Nick Vukmir, a sophomore in the College of Business Administration, will travel to Bosnia with the Army ROTC. He is the only Marquette student traveling there, although nine other Marquette students in his battalion will travel abroad.

Vukmir will live on a U.S. military base in Bosnia for a month.

“They don’t really tell you what you will be doing,” Vukmir said.

“They said to be ready for physical fitness.”

Traveling Sarah Thiry, a sophomore in the College of Nursing will travel to the Dominican Republic through Creighton University’s Institute for Latin American Concern. Thiry will work with a team of physicians, medical students, pharmacists and dental students operating a clinic where she will focus on women’s health issues.

“I will be educating the women and young women on topics such as awareness of physical and sexual abuse in addition to personal health and physical fitness,” Thiry said.

Thiry said she is most excited to be building relationships with the people in the village she will be working and get more in touch with the world around her.

Graduating Molly Milota, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences, will graduate with an English degree. Milota will move to Kansas in July to start graduate school at Kansas State University for college student development.

“I’m not excited about leaving Milwaukee, but I am ready for something new,” Milota said.

Meg Goeden, a senior in the College of Engineering, will graduate and move back home to Saukville, Wis. this summer and start looking for a real job. In the meantime, she will work at a grocery store.

“I want to find a job with a new experience where I can expand my education,” Goeden said.

New office to aid consumers Exact purpose of new protection unit remains unknown

By Eric Oliver eric.oliver@marquette.edu

Last Thursday, Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen announced the creation of a new consumer protection unit for the state.

The unit will specialize in mortgage-related complaints and other consumer-protection and antitrust matters.

It remains unknown what exactly the unit will represent, as there is already a consumer protection department in the state of Wisconsin – the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection.

Eugene Laczniak, a professor of marketing, has his own theories about why the unit was created.

Laczniak said this is a reorganizational move instead of a commitment to new resources for consumer protection.

“What remains unclear is how this office will coordinate with the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, where matters of trade and consumer protection have historically been located,” Laczniak said.

“Better coordination in such matters would be a positive thing.”

Laczniak said this may be a piece in the major settlement over the mishandling of subprime rate mortgages. He also said this may just be a move by the Department of Justice to position itself as a central player in the settlement rather then having the Department of Justice settle it all.

“The Wisconsin Department of Justice may also want to be in a stronger position to protect Wisconsin banks from local consumer claims of mistreatment, although I hope I am wrong about this,” Laczniak said.

Dennis Garrett, an associate professor of marketing, also has his own theories about the unit.

Garrett isn’t entirely sure why this new unit was created now, but he believes it may be part of a move to increase consumer visibility, so consumers can recognize the options available to them.

“This unit will provide consumers with an outlet for their complaints regarding unfair or deceptive business practices,” Garrett said. “The state of Wisconsin has had for many years a unit based in a different office that offered this basic type of service for consumers with complaints.”

Garrett said consumers need two types of services to help them make more informed decisions.

They first need access to information regarding the relative quality of various products and service providers, and then they need an outlet to file complaints and, hopefully, resolve their problems.

“Unfortunately, despite decades of emphasis on the value of providing high quality customer service, there are still many companies that provide poor quality products and services to their customers,” Garrett said. “Therefore, the number of consumer complaints filed each year continues to rise rather than fall.”

Michael Collins, an assistant professor and faculty director for the Center of Financial Security at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, agrees with them both.

Collins said the creation of the unit is directly related to the mortgage settlement, but he also believes there is a chance this is a move to increase visibility to the consumer.

“The Department of Justice already has a consumer unit and tries cases,” Collins said. “I think the new funding from the settlement might formalize the Department of Justice’s function a bit, perhaps taking a higher profile.”

Southeast Wisc. makes top 20 for particle pollution

s/Milwaukee-

By Joe Kaiser joseph.kaiser@marquette.edu

The American Lung Association’s State of the Air 2012 report released on April 25 found that the Milwaukee-Racine-Waukesha area is the 20th-most polluted area in terms of short-term particle pollution.

The report also found that among the more than 1.7 million living in the area, more than 434,000 live with a cardiovascular disease, while nearly 110,000 live with adult asthma.

According to Dona Wininsky, director of public policy and communication for the American Lung Association of Wisconsin, particle air pollution can be a concern for these individuals.

“With particle pollution, virtually anybody with heart or lung problems (is at risk),” Wininsky said. “I’d say also children, whose lungs are still developing, the elderly, whose lungs are deteriorating, and anyone who works or spends a lot of time outdoors.”

Dennis Sobush, an associate professor of physical therapy, said there are both immediate and long-term effects to being exposed to poor air quality.

“A person might experience shortness of breath if oxygen is compromised,” Sobush said. “A

person might also experience chest pains or have a heart attack.

They might need to seek hospitalization. The level of concentration is going to have an immediate effect. The long-term effects are things like increased mortality (rate), emphysema and lung cancer.”

This report comes just two weeks after the Environmental Protection Agency revealed the metro Milwaukee area would likely meet its standards for ozone levels. The EPA conclusions were based on 2008-’10 data that would make Milwaukee an “attainment” area, improving upon it’s previous classification.

However, as Wininsky explains, ozone and short-particle pollution are two different discussions.

“Ozone, or what we call smog, is a chemical pollutant that needs heat and sunlight, organic compounds and nitrogen oxides,” Wininsky said. “Particle pollution, or what we call soot, on the other hand is physical particles.

Most of the time it’s the product of some kind of burning. If you’ve ever been behind a big diesel truck you see the exhaust, and that’s contributing to particle pollution.”

William Brower, professor emeritus of mechanical engineering, said diesel could be a major contributor of air pollution in the Milwaukee area.

“Milwaukee has a lot of trucking in and around (the city),” Brower said. “Diesel in the last 20 years or so did not have any regulations whatsoever until (the

city) finally got some.”

Both Brower and Wininsky also point to burning by the city’s industrial plants as another possible contributor to the high particle pollution levels.

A goal for the ALA is to keep in place the Clean Air Act, established in 1963, though the act has come under fire from some who say it is hurting businesses.

Sobush, however, does not agree with the criticism of the act.

“Big oil companies and lobbyists are trying to put an economic label on (the Clean Air Act) saying it’s going to cost (them more),” Sobush said. “It’s likely not having an impact on fuel costs. Big oil companies are trying to place fear in our minds. If the clean air act is blocked the air quality will become poorer (and) more people will be going to the hospital with respiratory problems.”

Wininsky confirms the association’s priority of defending the Clean Air Act. “The Clean Air Act requires that you do meet some kind of standard,” Wininsky said. “The first thing that I would say is we need to keep the Clean Air Act. Anytime there is an attack on the Clean Air Act we always make calls to defend it.”

The top five most polluted cities in short-term particle pollution were all in California, while the only other Wisconsin city to crack the top 25 was Green Bay at 14.

Marquette University has adopted a new program that gives faculty, staff and students the ability to report campus misconduct anonymously and confidentially.

EthicsPoint is a third-party vendor that has been hired to provide a secure toll-free hotline to report violations of federal, state or university policies both online and by phone. The university will not operate these hotlines.

The program, according to its website, will be incorporated at Marquette by addressing risks in the areas of finance, research, human resources, risk and safety, medical, information technology, student and academic issues and athletics.

As stated on its website: “EthicsPoint has historically been known as one of the most innovative companies in the governance, risk and compliance space.”

According to Brian Dorrington, senior director of university communication, Marquette is continuously looking to improve its ethics standards, and the addition of this program will help.

“As a university, we believe that we must always look for the best ways to consistently meet ethical standards to ensure our mission of fostering personal and professional excellence,” Dorrington said. “EthicsPoint offers a systemized way to accomplish this and adds to our emphasis on transparency.”

assistance to multiple levels of businesses and industries, including banking, healthcare, government, non-profits, manufacturing, electronics and education.

In the area of students and academics, the compliance should help to prevent risks such as alcohol and drug abuse, cheating, plagiarism, hazing, harassment and student safety.

This system may also be used to report the misuse of different software on campus, an issue drawing publicity lately due to the key logging controversy that was reported through the Department of Public Safety on April 16.

Simmi Singh Corcoran, EthicsPoint senior marketing communications manager, said Marquette has been an EthicsPoint client for a while but has since expanded its use of the system.

“With more than 300 colleges and universities across the United States as clients, EthicsPoint has significant experience assisting higher education clients and is proud to work with Marquette to assist in capturing reports of misconduct,” Corcoran said in an email.

The way EthicsPoint works is based on a hotline and the response to incidences that are reported.

The usual process among EthicsPoint clients, according to Corcoran, is that a designated official at the university will receive notification of a report and then begin the process within the university to investigate further.

“We work hand-in-hand with schools on the management of their web- and telephone-based hotline system, allowing the university to capture additional reports, follow-up on those reports, analyze patterns and proactively identify areas of risk,” Corcoran said.

Marquette’s class of 2015 was the largest in recent years, according to Robert Blust, dean of admissions and enrollment planning, but the Office of Admissions plans on fewer prospective students to be enrolling for the class of 2016.

“The class of 2015 exceeded our projections by about 100 students,” Blust said. “Admissions usually projects a number, so we’re counting on this incoming freshman class to be closer to that number.”

Blust thinks these new findings will have little impact on college attendance.

“Marquette is fortunate because our enrollment is strong in all our seven colleges, but I think some students will look at the job market and choose a major based on that, while others will just pursue their passions,” Blust said.

MORTALITY RATES

There were roughly

10.2 DEATHS FOR

EVERY 1,000 BIRTHS in Milwaukee in 2011.

The 2010 African American infant mortality rate was 10.4 COMPARED TO 14.4 as of 2011

At least nine babies have been found dead as a result of co-sleeping, according to the Journal Sentinel. The “Safe Sleep Campaign” seeks to control this issue, according to the same source.

African American infants are 2.6 times more likely to die than Caucasian infants

18 percent have untreatable congenital abnormalities.

Barrett said he wants to reduce the black infant mortality rate by 15 percent and the city’s overall rate by 10 percent by 2017, according to the Journal Sentinel.

Barrett Heald, a sophomore in the College of Communication, said Milwaukee needs to be more proactive in combating this issue.

“Historically, Milwaukee has been known to be a segregated area and this report has brought up (negativity-related facts and figures) of the past,” she said.

“Milwaukee should offer help to all newborn babies and their mothers regardless of what race they are.”

Heald also said she thinks the main reason black babies are less likely to survive is a result of combined health care and income problems which are notably found in such Milwaukee area communities.

Citywide efforts have included the “Safe Sleep Campaign,” a series of advertisements depicting babies in danger of death (one notable example shows a baby peacefully sleeping while an ominous knife lies nearby).

The campaign is intended to on call parents to protect their children and understand the realities of infant mortality.

Representatives for the campaign were unavailable for comment as of press time.

Jordan Torres, a sophomore in the College of Arts & Sciences,

Co-Sleeping Campaign Ad also said poverty is the root of this problem, adding that many cases resulting in high infant mortality rates are due to teenage parenting.

“It’s an issue because teen parents don’t have an education, which leads to no jobs or if any, a lower income (job),” Torres said. “Then when children are born, they sometimes don’t know how to care for them.”

Other efforts to combat this issue include the city’s “Changing the Determinants of Health” efforts, which will look into influential birth factors such as the environment, drug use and racism as well as starting a rigorous home visiting program for low-income first-time pregnant women in four of the city’s most worrisome ZIP codes.

Tribune File Photo

It’s been 223 days since the Rev. Scott Pilarz was inaugurated as Marquette’s 23rd President. He said it felt strange to be a freshman at 52 years old, but he vowed to be connected to the students and, overall, we think he’s done a pretty good job. But there’s always room for improvement.

Father Pilarz has become a very familiar face on campus. Some students have Pilarz as a professor; others have him as a neighbor in Campus Town East. He hosts student dinners and makes appearances at a variety of events. He has even made some of Marquette’s notorious red tape transparent by inviting students to meetings and allowing them to sit on some committees. He truly is the students’ president, and we respect him greatly for that.

Under the new Pilarz administration, there is a clear effort to spark discussion about sexual health and sexual assault awareness and prevention. We urge him to continue this in future years. We expected a stronger focus on sexual assault after last year’s incidents, but we hope he doesn’t back off this topic next year just because Marquette has already “been there, done that.”

Pilarz hired a few new people this year, including Athletic Director Larry Williams and Executive Vice President Mary DiStanislao. These positions were filled by people with excellent qualifications and experience, so kudos on that one. Speaking of hiring new people, are we ever going to get a Dean of Arts & Sciences? The majority of the Tribune’s Editorial Board will be graduating without ever having one, which is simply unacceptable.

However, finally hiring a Dean of Arts & Sciences isn’t our only suggestion for you, Fr. Pilarz. We’re not trying to complain, but please hear us out.

Make an official statement about McCormick. Everyone is talking about it and we can see it tilting — literally. It may be known as the “beer can” now, but it will be called the Leaning Tower of Marquette before you know it. We know it takes money and time when dealing with something like this, but we want to know what you have planned. Many alumni spent time in McCormick during their years here, and we’re sure they would contribute to the problem’s solution. Whether it’s tearing it down and building a new dorm or letting it deteriorate for a few more years, please let us know what’s going on.

Did you read Tuesday’s editorial about Sensenbrenner Hall? If not, please do. Our clubs and organizations need more space, our students need more diversity and related resources and that building is just way too cool to be sitting vacant. Since we’re on the topics of buildings, when will the Gender Resource Center be open? We know you’re in the process of finding a director for the center, but the plans for this center have been floating around for years — we expect to see continued, concrete action.

One more thing: Please stop talking about football. We know we will never get a football team again, just like we will never change our mascot back to the Warriors. We accept that (reluctantly).

During Pilarz’s inauguration, students recited Mary Oliver’s poem, “What I Have Learned So Far.” But our question is, what have you learned, Father Pilarz?

Like most freshmen, Pilarz made a few mistakes during his first year at Marquette, but we hope he’s learned from them. We know we were excited to no longer be freshmen, so here’s to looking toward your sophomore year, Fr. Pilarz.

Public House was opened.

“We want the bar to be acceptable to people. It’s the thinking man’s bar,” said Peter Murphy, events coordinator at the Public House.

Annual membership for the Public House is $40 a year or $200 for a lifetime membership. Perks include member-only drink discounts and legal ownership of the bar. No big deal.

Murphy and others on the board of directors take all members’ suggestions about the bar into consideration. It’s what helps build

the community atmosphere the cooperative was made to create.

“We are always taking members’ ideas and trying to make them as possible as we can,” said Murphy.

The mission behind the Public House is quite different from your typical bar. The Public House wants to provide its patrons with not only local and organic beers, but also with an active community space perfect for speakers, live music and regular community events—sometimes as simple as a friendly card game.

“We’ve had politicians, spelling bees, and debates. We try to keep it diverse,” said Murphy.

In May alone, the Public House has a full schedule of events open to members and non-members, with most costing under $10 for admission.

On May 6, Rival FM, the monthly song writing and recording competition, will hold its second event at the Public House. Aspiring musicians submit their music, and audience members come to

the listening party and vote on their favorites.

On May 26, the Public House will sponsor Milwaukee’s first Group Hug competition. The competition, inspired by the first Group Hug event in St. Louis, Mo., involves five major Rust Belt cities including Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Detroit, St. Louis and Milwaukee. The idea is to bring people together through the love of their cities.

Participants simply find a favorite place, person or object that defines Milwaukee and then snap a picture while hugging it. The deadline to submit photos is May 15.

There’s always something happening at the Public House, and everyone behind it wants the city to know about it.

“Like our website says, we want to build community, one drink at a time,” said Murphy.

BeProfessor who explored, tween his office’s arbitrary door decorations — insightful quotes, words in other languages, black and white photos — and his affinity for blues and Northern Africa, Naylor said there is one common thread that defines him: the need to explore.

themselves, he said.

“I see music as documentation,” he said. “It helps

me understand history.”

For students of Naylor’s Western Civilization II class, music might help them understand history, too. Naylor and other Marquette faculty members formed “Western Civilizations,” a blues band that seems to parody the college classroom experience. The album cover is the image of an infamous test-taking blue book.

“The band enhanced my knowledge of rock ‘n’

roll,” he said. “It’s beyond playing. It’s production.”

Naylor’s teaching assistant David DeMarkis, a graduate student in the College of Arts & Sciences, played the harmonica during the band’s performance of “Midterm Blues,” one of his favorite memories with Naylor to date.

“Dr. Naylor was simply amazing on guitar,” DeMarkis said in an email. “His best quality as an educator is his ability to personalize history within the classroom.”

“Having fun is really important when you’re discussing life and death issues,” Naylor said. “If you’re too wrapped up in it, it’s pretty demoralizing.”

Since publishing “North Africa: A History from Antiquity to the Present” in 2009, among many other books, his occupation now seems more like a vocation, he said. In staying true to Marquette’s mission, Naylor said, “I just hope I’m serving in some way.”

big screen is a murder mystery thriller that takes place during the 1950s. The movie gave White the chance to work not only in the creative side of film production but also with an unfamiliar genre.

“It’s a genre that I don’t watch a lot,” White said. “So it was challenging in a good way. The whole horror aspect was exciting, new and something that I may or may not get to do ever again.”

In addition to pushing filmmakers to create bigger and better projects, the film festival also offers directors, stars and writers the Hollywood treatment. Their films get to debut in front of an audience that doesn’t consist entirely of classmates, and they get to see their film on the big screen instead of on a computer.

“For a filmmaker, there’s no substitute for seeing something in a room on a big screen with others and hearing them gasp, laugh and react to your work,” Beverly said.

Film festivals are not just growing at Marquette, however. Famous events such as Cannes and Sundance have always been big times for movie buffs, but smaller showcases, such as South By Southwest and even the Milwaukee Film Festival, have shown increases in attendance and popcultural importance. Some note that the growing interest may be due to the lower cost and easier accessibility to quality filmmaking tools. Others believe it could be in the freedom and creativity of the content.

“In independent movies, you see a lot of things that you won’t see in major theaters,” White said.

“Studios change things.”

Marquee’s picks of the year Five things we love, five we don’t Sarah Elms MOVIE: 50/50

It made me laugh; it made me cry. Isn’t that what characterizes a good film? Not only was “50/50” entertaining, but it made me think. The plot was smart and relatable, and the acting was spot-on. It even had a happy ending, and who doesn’t enjoy one of those?

TV SHOW: Best Friends Forever

“BFF,” written by and starring Lennon Parham and Jessica St. Clair, is my new favorite show. It is only four episodes in, but I have yet to see something I don’t like. It is utterly hilarious, and, to be honest, reminds me a little of my own group of friends. It’s a must-watch in my book.

I could listen to any of Portugal. The Man’s albums all day every day, but “In the Mountain In the Cloud,” released in July, is definitely my favorite. It artfully balances musical complexities and simplicities, and there’s always a song perfect for whatever mood I’m in. If I was stranded on a desert island and could only have one album, this would be it.

Matt Mueller

MOVIE: A Separation

Though “Drive” certainly merits a mention, Asghar Farhadi’s “A Separation” is the best movie I saw in a weak year for film. The Oscar winner for Best Foreign Film may be from Iran, but the relationships and emotions created in the story transcend borders. It’s a cinematic, emotional and cultural experience.

TV SHOW: Game of Thrones

I don’t watch much television, so the fact that I went out of my way to catch up with HBO’s epic fantasy series “Game of Thrones” should speak for itself. The acting, especially from Peter Dinklage, is terrific, the story is unpredictable and the production value is up to HBO’s usual high standards ... and then some. Plus, it has Joffrey, a character so brutally evil that even Gandhi would be tempted to take a swing at the little blonde nightmare.

ALBUM: Drive (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) A movie called “Drive” better have a sweet soundtrack to listen to on the ride-along. Luckily, this album, featuring a hauntingly moody score by Cliff Martinez and ’80s tinged songs by bands like College and Kavinsky & Lovefoxxx, works as the perfect accompaniment for a Sunday drive, the walk to class, or one of the best movies of 2011. It’s so good I almost forgot Ryan Gosling was in “Drive.” Almost.

Keep the boy bands, get rid of hologram celebs

By Liz McGovern elizabeth.mcgovern@marquette.edu

It’s that time of year again. It’s time for intense cramming sessions, yearning for flip-flop weather and even staying true to our Ignatian ideals by reflecting on the past year.

The Marquee desk has compiled a list of five things we want to see next school year in arts and entertainment, as well as five things we could do without seeing ever again.

MORE OF:

1. Filling vacant storefronts: There are so many open spaces downtown that have yet to be replaced with something new. When they have, you get stores like the Hot Flash Pantry, on 7th Street and Wisconsin Avenue. Bizarre name + flashing neon lights in the window = what sounds like a strip club for menopausal women. Let’s fill the empty stores on Wisconsin and in Grand Avenue Mall so there’s some affordable and fun places to hang out.

2. Empowerment: Media should be used for good and not evil. Regardless of how you feel about the KONY 2012 campaign, it challenged young people to get involved in an important humanitarian movement. Other documentaries, such as “Bully,” followed victims of severe bullying and informed young people about the consequences of these hurtful actions.

3. Boy bands: Everyone is nostalgic for the days of ’90s Nickelodeon cartoons, Razor scooters and most importantly, boy bands.

The Wanted and One Direction are making boy bands cool again (and easing the pain of those suffering from an embarrassing

post-Jonas Brothers depression).

4. Vinyl culture: Records have been making a comeback, with new bands starting to sell their albums in record form. It’s so much more meaningful to hold a piece of art than to stare at pixels on a screen. Plus, vinyl sounds better than your iPod. 5. Organic food: It’s no secret that Marquette is lacking in variety and healthy options. Yes, we have hosted farmer’s markets, and Sodexo chefs have cooked with organic food in the dining halls, but these experiences are rare.

LESS OF:

1. Making two movies out of one: Harry Potter was able to get away with it, but then Twilight tried it. And once Twilight starts picking up on a trend, it’s time for that trend to die.

2. “Sorry I’m not sorry”: As funny as the saying once was, this phrase only perpetuates the stereotype that college students, particularly young women, are rude, shallow and selfindulgent. Cut it out, everyone; we’re smarter than that.

3. 3-D Movies: Most 3-D movies, such as “Shark Night 3D” and “Pirates of the Caribbean 4,” do not even use extremely immersive and depth-filled visuals that make a third dimension necessary. 3-D movie tickets are more expensive, yet the only added feature is the ability to induce headaches.

4. Dead celebrity holograms: When Tupac Shakur rose from the dead, fans started rallying to bring other dead celebs back to life. Ethical implications aside, holograms of the dead are a little too sci-fi for the Marquee desk.

5. The Kardashians: Kim’s marriage and divorce got way too much media attention, especially considering it lasted as long as an episode of her self-indulgent reality show. Marquee is tired of all these scandalous socialites.

(That means you, too, Snooki).

I haven’t seen many movies this school year, but I saw this one with my mom, and she thought it was just as funny as I did.

Which is actually kind of weird now that I think about it; I thought my mom was more mature than that.

TV SHOW: RuPaul’s Drug Race

This semester, I’ve been channeling my inner Glamazon, lip-syncing for my life, and trying to serve big hair realness daily. I don’t know what to do now that the season is over. It gives me more time to obsess over “Community,” I guess.

ALBUM: Master of My Make Believe (Santigold) This album just came out last week, so I haven’t given it a good listen, but it’s been four years since Santigold’s last record. I’ve been waiting forever for this. Bring on the conscious afro-dance beats!

Liz McGovern

MOVIE: The Hunger Games

Katniss is a badass female protagonist who refuses to be a damsel in distress.

TV SHOW: Suburgatory

This new sitcom is witty, sharp and hysterical. The show’s depiction of suburban life is exaggerated yet also freakishly accurate.

ALBUM: Ceremonials (Florence and the Machine)

This album fits any mood and is great to study to. The songs on the album range from deep and introspective to happy and empowering.

MOVIE: The Help

Heather Ronaldson

I laughed. I cried. I abstained from chocolate pie (not like it’s abundant in Sodexo-land anyway). “The Help” reminded me of my humanity in a way I hadn’t known possible. Not to mention I’m a female journalist who has black framed glasses and curly hair so I kind of related to one of the characters. But no matter who you are, “The Help” is a humbling reminder to love people. Period.

TV SHOW: Parks and Recreation The show may have felt like a rip-off of “The Office” at the start, but thanks to a few fresh cast members, Deputy Director Leslie Knope’s new political agenda and the ever-pleasant theme song, “Parks and Rec” earned its spot in my weekly lineup.

ALBUM: F.A.M.E. (Chris Brown) I don’t care what music you’re into – those who can hear know “Look at Me Now” is the song of 2011, and any album it is recorded on makes it the year’s greatest. Lucky for us, it just so happens to sit on a throne with “Deuces,” “She Ain’t You” and “Yeah 3x.” As far as I’m concerned, “F.A.M.E.” is like the double-your-dough of party music.

MOVIE: We Bought A Zoo

Rob Gebelhoff

When I was a little kid, it was my dream to own my own zoo. Needless to say, “We Bought A Zoo” was the exhilarating realization of my childhood fantasies. Everything about it was great, from the emotional plot to the powerful music.

TV SHOW: The Walking Dead When I came home for winter break, my siblings and I spent a couple of days watching the second season of “The Walking Dead.” I’m not much for TV shows or zombies, but the AMC hit show is tantalizingly exciting and dramatic. It goes beyond the simple horror and gore characteristic of zombie flicks.

ALBUM: Helplessness Blues (Fleet Foxes) I know it was released May of 2011, but I only discovered it in September. (Have pity; I was musically sheltered from indie folk until I began to work for Marquee.) Fleet Foxes was a new, cathartic sound for me, and I fell in love as soon as I heard it.

Farewell for now, Milwaukee

Sarah Elms If you’ve read any of my columns throughout the year, you’ve probably figured out that I love Milwaukee. I love the different neighborhoods, the industrial history and, of course, the food and beer. Think what you want, but even the smell of this city makes me smile.

Most of all, though, I love the people who live here.

During my four years in this city, I’ve talked with a lot of Milwaukeeans. I’ve interviewed artists, musicians, community organizers, boutique owners, event coordinators and dozens of your average everyday individuals, and whenever I ask “Why Milwaukee?”, all of them seem to circle back to one thing: community.

I know, on the surface, Milwaukee may not seem like such a close-knit network of people. The city has some clear flaws. Each neighborhood seems to house narrowly-constructed “types” – East Side’s hipsters, the yuppies of the Third Ward – and the same notion is true about Milwaukee’s college campuses. That, and Milwaukee is sadly one of the most segregated cities in America.

All that being said, I think we’re moving in the right direction to replace these negatives with positives.

Milwaukee has a thriving art community and networks of hip-hop, indie, garage rock and experimental musicians. It also has venues and organizations that keep Milwaukee’s history alive, and, most importantly, it has people eager to support all of this.

Milwaukee is the perfect place for start-ups. If you want to try something new or get your name out there, I guarantee you’ll find people in this city to back you.

I’ve had the pleasure of chatting with the people behind Milwaukee’s storytelling troupe Ex Fabula, who strive to build community around the sharing of personal narratives. I’ve also spoken with

the folks who run experimental art/music venue the Borg Ward, a haven for many who aren’t welcome in mainstream venues.

I’ve talked to people at the member-owned Riverwest Public House, where patrons’ input is always taken into consideration when the bar needs to make decisions. Then there are the hardworking individuals behind some of the country’s best radio stations, 88Nine Radio Milwaukee and WMSE Frontier Radio, who are all about local support.

All of these things epitomize the hardworking and fun-loving community responsible for why I fell in love with Milwaukee in the first place. The more people who discover this and get involved, the greater this city will be.

After graduation, I am

moving to a community I have never been to before: Springfield, Mo. As sad as I am to leave the city I love, I am so excited to move once again into unfamiliar territory. I can’t wait to explore everything Springfield has to offer.

I want to soak up the culture, discover its hidden gems and, most of all, I want to learn what its people are all about.

Wherever you find yourself, it is important to make the most out of it. If you’re continuing at Marquette, venture off campus and try something new. If you’re moving away, like I am, don’t be afraid to explore your new stomping ground.

Who knows, you might just fall in love with it. sarah.elms@marquette.edu

Confessions of a colossal movie nerd

Matt Mueller I’m quite upset with myself right now.

I’m not mad because I’ve done poorly on a recent test or quiz. And my anger has nothing to do with the fact that I didn’t do my daily work out — mainly because I’ve never gone to the gym or any other facility that houses a treadmill. In fact, the closest I’ve come to exercising in the past three years is running up the 294 stairs of the Bunker Hill monument in Boston, a decision that easily tops my list of worst ideas ever.

Second place goes to paying to

see “Justin Bieber: Never Say Never” in 3-D on opening day.

No, I’m upset because it’s been a week since I last saw a movie.

There’s a good chance many of you just read that last sentence and scoffed loudly. We gain a lot of things when we head off to college – knowledge, privileges, 15 pounds – but one of the things that often disappears is our love of movie-watching. Yeah, we can take film classes, but even for a massive movie nerd like myself, those screenings can feel like a chore after days of long lectures and nights of minimal sleep.

Hollywood certainly doesn’t help its cause. Even if college students wanted to see a movie, the cost of a ticket, plus soda and a bucket of popcorn, is almost enough to require a loan application. I’d say the experience costs even more

if you want to see a 3-D movie, but I’m pretty sure no one wants to see 3-D movies anymore, except for James Cameron.

Adding to audiences’ woes is the film industry’s idea that consumers are just walking ATMs, easily distracted by flashy stars and even flashier explosions. How else do you explain “Battleship,” the upcoming summer blockbuster starring Rihanna and Sports Illustrated model Brooklyn Decker? Hollywood doesn’t love me; it loves my checking account and my ability to ignore how fast I’m draining it.

Despite all of these reasons, however, I still love the movies. I’m like Bella Swan, except if she had an unhealthy relationship with moneysucking studio executives

s k n a h T for ! g n i d a Re e e u q r a 2 1 ‘ 1 -M ‘1

instead with blood-sucking vampires. And if she was less annoying. And male.

One of the reasons for my adoration of cinema is that it provides a healthy source of conversation and debate in a time when other arenas of discussion, mainly politics, have become poisonous and vicious.

Film discussions seem to be one of the few places where words like “agreement” and “compromise” aren’t considered bad.

There’s more to movies, though. For every “Battleship,” “Transformers” or other equally empty Hollywood creation, there are films that speak to the characters, lives and emotions of the people watching. You may see some horrible abominations

of cinema, but you may also see films that move your soul and change the way you walk through the world.

“High Fidelity,” my favorite movie of all time (so stop asking), is, on a basic level, just a comedy, but the way the characters interact with one another and the honesty of their relationships strike a chord in me every time I watch it.

That’s the beauty of movies — and art, for that matter.

They give you the opportunity to make a connection with your fellow citizens of the world.

And that’s why the Marquee section exists. We’re here to build the roads that bring art to Marquette, Milwaukee and (not to get too dramatic), the world.

My particular road of choice is cinema, and I’m very excited to see where that road leads.

I hope you’ll come with.

In the meantime, I’m going to go see “The Raven.” m a t t h e w. m u e l l e r @ marquette.edu

Making an MLS impact Mallace looks to find his niche on Montreal’s roster

By Matt Trebby matthew.trebby@marquette.edu

In October, Calum Mallace was leading Marquette to a conference championship as the Big East Midfielder of the Year.

In January, he was picked in the MLS Superdraft by the Montreal Impact with the first selection of the second round.

Now, his focus is breaking into the Impact lineup as a rookie.

Mallace has yet to make an appearance for the Impact, an expansion team in its first season.

He was part of the 18-man squad for the first four games of the season, but did not make it off the bench. Mallace recently suffered an ankle injury, and just started training again about a week and a half ago.

Mallace is staying positive, saying he is extremely lucky to even have this opportunity, and to get paid to play the game he loves every day.

“I wake up every morning

(and) go straight to training, which is the best feeling ever,” Mallace said. “I love training as much as I love games. To wake up and be able to do that every day, play the game I love, and get paid to do that, it’s an amazing feeling. I’m very lucky to be able to do that.”

The Impact’s Davy Arnaud, a midfielder, is one of the longest tenured players in the MLS, striker Bernardo Corradi has played all around Italy and scored goals wherever he’s been and defender Matteo Ferrari has played in the UEFA Champions League.

Mallace said he doesn’t really notice he is playing against players like that until a training session is over and he can look back on it.

“You don’t really think about it in training when you’re playing against them,” Mallace said. “But after (training) you kind of take a step back and say, ‘Wow, these guys have played with the best at the highest level and hopefully they’re making me better.’”

For the rest of the season, Mallace doesn’t have a certain number of appearances he’s hoping for. As a rookie in the MLS, it is difficult to break into

the starting lineup.

So Mallace is planning on working as hard as he can for the rest of the season so he gets his chance with the team.

“If I got the start next game and played every game for the rest of the season, that would be a dream,” Mallace said. “But that’s obviously not going to happen. So right now for me individually, it’s just pushing myself along every day, and contributing to the team as much as I can, and if or when I get that opportunity I’m definitely going to take it.”

Louis Bennett, Mallace’s coach at Marquette, said Mallace has a very bright career ahead of him and said he “would expect him to play about 15 games” this season.

Bennett said because of the franchise being in its inaugural season, the Impact needs to play experienced players and win games. But once Mallace gets his feet on the ground and the season gets going, he’ll break onto the team and make a difference.

“He’s definitely got the attitude,” Bennett said. “So when that door opens fully, he’s going to push it open and run straight through.”

A thank you to a few departing seniors

Matt Trebby Throughout the past year, I have been very fortunate to contribute to this wonderful newspaper, work for Marquette University Radio and also appear on Marquette University Television.

In doing so, I am very lucky to have been able to work with a few people that have directly affected my work in a very positive way. Those people are all seniors, and will be graduating later this month, meaning I probably won’t get to work with them ever again. This column is my way of saying thank you to them.

Through Marquette Radio, I got to work with Michael Wottreng, who gave me my first chance last year. Michael hired me as an assistant sports director and gave me the chance to meet people and have experiences I will never forget. He went from being my boss to someone who has become a great friend.

After getting hired by the Tribune in November, I was able to work with three guys who have each been fantastic to me.

Mike Nelson, who was editor of

the sports desk until February, gave me the chance to write this column every week. I had a bit of writing background, but he thought I would do well for this paper. Because of that, I have discovered how well this paper is run and the great people that are a part of it.

Mark Strotman wrote most of the content on Paint Touches this year and showed incredible commitment in doing so. He would talk to players and write stories when he didn’t have to. But he did so to keep the Marquette basketball faithful up to date and entertained throughout the season.

Before I was hired by the paper, I would always read Andrei Greska’s columns, and every time I did I would always think the same thing afterward: “Wow.” So when I was hired to be the Thursday sports columnist, I felt plenty of pressure to follow up what he wrote. He has helped me improve my writing through his writing and editing. Because of Andrei, my vocabulary has forever been augmented.

MUTV has introduced me to two people that have both been great examples, and I’m pretty sure neither one knows how influential they have been to me.

Donnie Dwyer is the most enthusiastic and energetic person I have met in broadcasting. Through appearing on the MUTV show he produced, I’ve seen his passion for See Trebby, page 17

men’s lacrosse

Orsen a well-versed recruiter Assistant played for Amplo, now joins him on staff

By Chris Chavez christopher.chavez@marquette.edu

When John Orsen arrived at Hofstra to play lacrosse as a freshman, it was Joe Amplo’s first year as an assistant coach. When Orsen arrived at Marquette to be an assistant coach, it was Amplo’s first year as head coach.

Over the years, the relationship between Orsen and Amplo has developed on and off the field to the point where Amplo now turns to one of his former players for advice.

“I loved playing for him,” Orsen said. “On the field he is very intense. Off the field, you could talk to him about any problems you might have in your life.”

When Amplo was coaching with the Pride, Orsen was an instrumental player in the team’s run to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division I Tournament.

In his junior and senior year, Orsen served as captain due to his leadership and versatility. He was flexible and open to playing any position on the field, which ultimately strengthened his

I.Q. of the game.

“While being a good defender, you have to have an offensive mentality,” Orsen said.

“After playing as an attackman my whole life, I knew what an attackman’s tendencies were.

As a defender you’re trying to take that away.”

Amplo believes that Orsen’s transition as a player speaks to the values or the traits he wants to instill in his team now.

“The most important thing that I want to instill in the guys here at Marquette is to buy into our team concept of doing everything for the team first,” Amplo said. “There’s not a person that I’ve been around that exemplifies that more than (Orsen). He put the team ahead of himself.”

Orsen is still growing as a recruiter and as a coach. Before arriving at Marquette, he spent the last few years as a manager for Trinity Lacrosse, one of the more renowned lacrosse programs that offers summer camps and clinics all around the country.

According to Orsen, teaching fundamentals to five-year-olds is not as easy as it sounds, and he uses the experiences from Trinity Lacrosse to reiterate the importance of nailing the basics on the field.

After working with Orsen

for a year, assistant coach Stephen Brundage believes that the coaching staff made do with what it had in 2011-’12 and realized there will be obstacles on the road to the Big East.

“It hasn’t been the smoothest road, but we knew that going in,” Brundage said. “But overall, our guys have been great and have worked their tails off. All the stuff we don’t have yet hasn’t bothered us because we just want to work and get better.”

Practices for the men’s lacrosse team ended earlier in the week and the team’s last day of weight lifting sessions was on Tuesday. Following the season, Orsen will be suiting up for Team USA in the 2011 World Indoor Lacrosse Championship in the Czech Republic. Amplo looks back on the year with his two assistants and could not be more thankful for their work.

“I want to thank them for believing in my vision for the program and understanding that there will be obstacles and challenges,” Amplo said. “They get more excited about those challenges than I do, and I need that as a head coach. I need guys that believe in the same things just as much as I do. They’ve shown that to me, and I couldn’t be more grateful.”

having them inside in a gym like we always do, we go to the Rec or down to Bradford Beach,” said redshirt junior right-side Holly Mertens. “It helps us with our technical skills in a different atmosphere.”

The volleyball team also does something unique for a major college team. Each year, the Golden Eagles host a grass tournament at Bradford called Triplesfest. The event is a fundraiser of sorts for the team.

The tournament normally runs during the same time as Summerfest and gives teams a chance to check out some of the live bands in between matches.

The players work the event in various positions giving them a chance to be involved with the Milwaukee community.

The team also works at summer camps for girls third grade to high school seniors. The team gets

a chance to teach younger players about their positions and as a part of multi-day camps.

The summer is also an opportunity for the incoming players to get used to their new school.

The athletes take a few classes with mandatory study halls as they get acclimated to Marquette. The current players use this time to help the fresh faces prepare for the fall.

“It’s nice to play with them and get some chemistry going,” Mertens said. “We get to teach them technique and what we are looking for so they are ready for it in the fall.”

Not a lot changes for most college students in the summer, but for student-athletes, it is a two month period where they take full advantage of the opportunity to get away from the pressure of being a Division 1 player.

So I guess this is it. For real this time.

And since I didn’t give a proper farewell in my column, I shall be exercising my senior administrative privileges to hijack this section in order to bid adieu.

Looking back on these past three years, I can’t help but marvel at how blessed I have been to get the opportunity to work under, for and with some fantastically talented writers.

I don’t know where I would be without Nick Bullock and Tim Kraft, my first editors and the people who taught me how to write stories, not just words.

And then there’s this year’s sports desk, a cast of characters that made Mondays and Wednesdays quite the adventure. From Nelson’s superb DJ skills, to LoCicero’s magic InDesign abilities to Strotman’s Paint Touching, this group of seniors helped bring

the Trib to a new level.

I also have to give my fellow senior columnists a shuotout. Kelly, Ian and Bridget’s writing was superb. I envy the ease with which they conveyed their message and the lyrical beauty that flowed through their graphs.

And then there’s Matthew and Tori, who put up with my constant gripes for more anything and everything related to sports without once telling me to go shove it where the sun don’t shine.

They put the baby to bed deep into the night to provide us with quality sudokus every Tuesday and Thursday. Your sentence is up; you are free to live again.

There really are too many people to thank in this limited space, but just know that I am thankful for having had the opportunity to work with you for the best damn nondaily newspaper in the country. andrei.greska@marquette.edu

Seniors looking for women’s volleyball finish in Tampa Spending summer at the beach big Loud crowd gives

Break in the action provides a chance for fun in the sun

By Michael Wottreng michael.wottreng@marquette.edu

Finals week is the only thing standing between most students and the start of summer break. The Marquette volleyball team may be looking forward to the summer months more than anyone.

During the school year, studentathletes have rigorous schedules with little downtime. The combination of class, study halls, practice, travel and games can leave players very eager for the third week of May. Volleyball players head in to summer with little on their schedules. Most players take only one class and there is more leisure time than usual.

“It is not very difficult balancing one class,” said sophomore defensive specialist Rachel Stier. “We like the summer because we get to explore Milwaukee, go to the beach and live like a normal person.”

The resounding topic from every volleyball player was the chance to play at Bradford Beach in Milwaukee or on the sand courts at the Rec Center on campus.

Getting a chance to play volleyball without coaches correcting them or in loud gyms is something each player savors.

“It’s kind of funny how when we don’t have volleyball, we want to play volleyball,” said sophomore libero Julie Jeziorowski. “The beach is more free and people get upset because we always beat them.”

It’s not all fun and games at the beach for the team. The players realize it’s an opportunity to hone their skills as they prepare for the fall season.

“For open gyms, instead of

MU athletes a competitive edge

By Chris Chavez christopher.chavez@marquette.edu

The forecast is calling for 70-degree days in Milwaukee this weekend, but the Marquette track and field team will be bringing the heat as they compete in the 2012 Outdoor Big East Conference Championship in Tampa, Fla. The bar has been set for the Golden Eagles after a ninth place finish at the 2012 Big East Indoor Championship.

Coming off a home meet against Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Illinois-Chicago and Northwestern, the team returns to South Florida, where it opened its outdoor campaign. Coach Bert Rogers is taking his biggest group of qualifiers to the conference championship.

Senior thrower Robert Bleem believes the larger crowd is going to help as one of the team’s strengths is voicing support for one another.

“Marquette definitely has a bigger voice than most teams.

We cheer every teammate on and want them to achieve their best,” Bleem said. “Having a big crowd is going to get people amped up and personal bests could be in place.”

For some, like junior sprinter Kyle Winter, it will be a more tactical race as he will see what the competition is doing before he decides how fast he will go.

At the 2012 Big East Indoor Championship, everyone started off slow which allowed Winter to kick at the very end and pick off the competition for the win.

If the other runners start off fast, Winter could be getting some help as he tries to reach a regional qualifying time. Winter

ran a 48.30 in their last visit to South Florida. This week at practice the sprinters are focused on “revving the engine.”

“We’ve been doing speed all week. We’re not doing miles,” Winter said. “We’re keeping our bodies pretty healthy and just working on speed to rev the engine.”

Rogers sees big performances coming from Winter on the men’s side, where he could be joined by several seniors like sprinter Tyler O’Brien, distance runner Jack Hackett and thrower Jonathan Kusowski to make noise at the championship.

“We’ve got a number of guys in a number of different areas that I think can get us points,” Rogers said. “I’m pretty excited about where our guys stand, and I think we want to do like we did at the indoor championship.”

On the women’s side, the focus will be on individual performances as they finished last at the 2012 Big East Indoor Championship. Rogers believes the athletes will display some personal bests.

There will still be a few meets once the conference championship concludes. The goal of those meets is to serve as a last chance opportunity for those athletes to try and secure their spot in the top 48 of their respective event in order to participate in the NCAA West Preliminary Rounds in Austin, Tex. With their careers starting to come to an end, Bleem foresees some great times being run by the senior.

“Everyone’s got a little fire in their eyes right before they’re done,” Bleem said. “We’re going to see great marks between Blake Johnson, Peter Bolgert, and Tyler O’Brien because they’re all wanting to go out with a bang and show off what they’ve achieved in their time here.”

20 Tribune men’s golf

MU runs its course

Bailey’s crew ends season with eighth place finish in BE

Junior Ryan Prickette shot a first round 73 in the Big East Championships.

The Marquette men’s golf team ended its season with an eighthplace finish in the Big East Championships. The Golden Eagles finished above South Florida, DePaul, Rutgers and Cincinnati in the field of twelve teams with an overall score of 898, 34-over par.

Coach Steve Bailey said some rough holes at the beginning of the rounds kept Marquette from placing higher, but he was proud with the way his team responded.

“We had some bad starts, and guys turned it around,” Bailey said.

“Ryan (Prickette) hit one of his first shots out of bounds to double bogey and came back to play one-

Thursday, May 3, 2012 under the rest of the round. We had some guys fighting, and we wish we could’ve finished higher, but I saw some positives.”

Bailey said he still has yet to see his team put on a complete topto-bottom performance, as again he saw solid individual performances that were offset by other individual struggles.

“Everyone contributed at some point this week, but we still haven’t gotten the full five out there,” Bailey said. “We really struggled in particular on the par fives. If you’re going to succeed in this sport you have to take advantage of them, and unfortunately we didn’t do that this week.”

The end of the tournament also marked the end of senior Matt Haase’s Marquette career. Haase led the Golden Eagles along with sophomore Michael Motz as both players finished with overall scores of 225, placing them in a tie for 31st place on the individual leaderboard.

Haase shot a 79 in the second round sandwiched between two 73s in the first and third rounds, while Motz fired a pair of 74s in the second and third rounds after a 77 on the first day.

Motz said the tournament was disappointing and frustrating. But that his team had really left everything on the course. Haase felt the tournament was “so-so,” but said he didn’t have any regrets.

“There’s always going to be shots left out there, but overall I felt like it was decent,” Haase said. “I feel like it was one of the better tournaments I’ve had in a while, and I was leading the tournament on the first day at one point.”

Bailey said Haase had been playing really well as of late, and he was happy with his lone senior’s effort to close out his career.

“He had some good stretches of solid golf this week,” Bailey said.

“He was unable to finish out some rounds the way he wanted to, but he had a nice birdie on the second to last hole Tuesday. He’s a guy you want to build your program around and a hard worker, so we’re going to miss having him around.”

With the summer looming ahead, Bailey named Motz and sophomore Corey Konieczki as his top prospects to replace Haase’s leadership.

“Michael’s really shown that when he can get going, his good is really good,” Bailey said. “We need him to be more consistent, but he’s going to be a team leader next year. I was also proud of the way Corey bounced back. Ryan (Prickette) is only going to play in the fall next season, so Corey and Mike are going to have to carry that leadership torch.”

As for Haase, he plans on taking it easy and said he doesn’t have any plans to go pro in his sport.

“It’s just going to be for fun now - I’m not going to try to play professionally or play any tournaments this summer,” Haase said. “There’s been a lot of highs and a lot of lows for me at Marquette, and overall it’s been a tremendous experience. The teammates I had were incredible, and they really are what kept me going while I was here.”
