Football fans of the purple and gold drove in scores down to Iowa City in preparation for Saturday’s in-state matchup with the Iowa Hawkeyes. What they got when they arrived at Kinnick Stadium was a game that few wanted to see as the

Hawkeyes (3-0) trounced the Panthers (0-2) by a final score of 38-14.

In their first meeting since 2014, the Panthers entered Saturday’s under-the-lights, primetime showdown with their in-state rivals looking to pull off an upset win in Iowa City for the first time since 1898.

UNI started out extremely slow with their first five drives resulting in four con-

secutive punts and an interception, one play after the Panther defense picked off the Iowa offense. The Panthers secondary defense struggled through the first half with reading outside runs and slant routes on passes.

After a rugged start by quarterback Eli Dunne in the Panthers 26-23 season opening loss at Montana two weeks ago, head coach Mark Farley turned to back-

up Colton Howell to lead the UNI offense. Howell struggled as his upperclassmen did two weeks ago completing only 30 percent of his passes for 22 yards and one interception.

Meanwhile the Iowa offense was out to prove their dominance by refusing to punt the ball on fourth and short on multiple occasions, converting three of their four attempts. The result

of the aggressive Iowa play calling led the Hawkeyes to three first half touchdowns, two of which came courtesy of Mekhi Sargent on the ground. UNI was able to prevent more first half damage when linebacker Ricky Neal blocked a Miguel Recinos field goal at the end of the first half to keep the score 21-0 in Iowa’s favor.

College Hill hosts third annual Oktoberfest SOFIA LEGASPI

Campus Life Editor

A piece of Germany visited College Hill last Saturday evening during the third annual Oktoberfest.

Those in attendance were able to enjoy music provided by the Octopus, beers from Single Speed Brewery and German-inspired food from La Calle food truck.

La Calle was also present at the Pear Fair, which had taken place in the same location earlier in the day.

“That really is a benefit to us as a partner because it keeps costs down for both of the events,” said Kathryn Sogard, executive director for the College Hill Partnership. “It gives people a reason to be on the Hill and stay on the Hill and not only go to both of those

events, but also attend many of the College Hill businesses in between.”

Oktoberfest participants also had the chance to play bags (otherwise known as “cornhole”), giant Jenga and hammerschlagen, a German game in which participants race to drive a nail into a tree stump.

Stephanie Smith, a senior management information systems and marketing double major, was about to try hammerschlagen with her friend, who brought her to the event.

“It seems interesting and dangerous, but it looks like fun,” Smith said with a laugh.

One of the main attractions at this year’s Oktoberfest was a beard contest hosted

by Chad’s Pizza. The contest included four different categories: mustache, partial

beard, full beard natural and freestyle.

UNI alum Alex Funke had won in the partial beard

Rialto to reopen tomorrow at 5 p.m.

ALANNA BYRNES Staff Writer

On Thursday, Sept. 13, the Department of Residence (DOR) released information on the reopening date and time for the Rialto Dining Center.

According to the DOR website, Rialto is scheduled to open at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 18 for dinner.

Rialto has been closed since Monday, Sept. 4, due to a joint steam line that broke early that morning.

The initital leak filled Rialto with hot steam, which then activiated Rialto’s sprinkler system. This caused extensive damage, which according the DOR said included delaminated veneer from walls and tables, collapsed ceiling tiles, melted electrial outlets, damaged water electrail equipment, and damage to the dining center’s fire alarm panel.

On the morning of Monday, Sept. 10, a second major steam leak occurred, which caused the death of a 61-year-old university employee Kevin Bley, who worked as a steamfitter.

Since the second major steam leak, the DOR hired a third-party engineering firm, HBK Engineering LLC, to investigate procedures and polices regarding the incident.

According to Mitch McAlister, assistant dining

manager at Rialto, “[The] safety of the building is [now] 100 percent, the utility issue is fixed. They were very careful fixing the issue.”

Though Rialto is functionally ready to open, cosmetic work on the dining center is still ongoing.

The DOR’s Rialto Recovery page stated, “Please know the issues preventing the dining center from reopening were associated with the underground steam tunnel and not within Rialto itself. The facility remains safe. We also want our guests to understand that upon opening, temporary cosmetic work will remain to continue to be a focus.”

McAlister told the NI that in order for Rilato to reopen, “everything in the dining center needs to be cleaned and sanitized for the safety of our customers.”

When asked to describe the current state of Rialto, McAlister said, “It’s a work in progress. Primarily cosmetic things need to be fixed.”

According to McAlister one of the most important parts of reopening Rialto was getting a fire panel up and running. A fire panel detects a fire and contacts authorities appropriate for a situation.

Rialto’s fire panel was ruined during the fire steam

leak on Sept. 4, and the university was unable was unable to reopen the dining center until a fire panel was back in place and functional.

Now, Rialto’s new fire panel is up and ready to go.

In regards to preparing for anything like this to happen again, McAlister stated, “It was freak accident and beyond our knowledge. There’s nothing that could have prevented this.”

When it comes to Rialto reopening, McAlister is looking forward to “Having our team and family back

together so we’re able to provide exceptional service.

Glad to be going back.”

Student Supervisor Molly Mingus commented on Rialto reopening.

“I’m looking forward to being back with my team and I’m ready to start working on new projects to get Rialto back to where it was,” said Mingus.

According to McAlister, once it is back up and running, Rialto plans to have a welcome back event for students.

EU articles harm free speech SEPTEMBER 17, 2018 |

While I’m happy to see some of the social media drama over Twitter dying down, there’s now an equally bad issue affecting the internet this week. It seems like we have traded one problem for another.

I’m talking about the recent votes in the European Union (EU) over Article 11 and the infamous Article 13.

These have slipped under most American’s noses since this is a ruling in Europe.

However, these rulings, especially Article 13, will affect us here in the U.S. If Article 13 sounds something like some dastardly cartoon villain would create to mess with us, you wouldn’t be far off. It’s about as bad as it sounds.

Allow me to explain these two articles before I start talking about their impacts.

First, we have Article 11.

This article can simply be summed up by calling it a “link tax.” Article 11 dictates that any platform that shares or posts article headlines will have to pay a tax to the news publisher they shared the article from. According to Quartz, that means whenever

Google posts a link to say, a BBC article, Google must now pay BBC anytime they post one of their links.

This may not sound bad right off the bat, but it quickly causes problems because it makes it harder for news to be distributed. Google has dealt with similar problem before in Spain when they passed virtually the same law. Google decided not to play ball and simply pulled Google News from Spain. As a result, almost all Spanish news sites lost traffic and some even folded completely.

Another similar situation happened in Germany where they established a link tax.

A few German publishers sued Google over publishing their links without a license.

Google in response stopped publishing their articles to avoid getting sued. As a result, traffic to those news sites drastically decreased to the point where they dropped the charges and allowed Google to publish their links (ZDnet).

Basically, Article 11 taxes Google and other platforms for sharing news. This demotivates the platforms to share news from outlets that want this enforced. This can quickly devolve into publishers being afraid to use this new article in fear of losing traffic. If that is what happens,

Is your phone your life support?

ADRIANA MIENE Staff Writer

Take a look around. How many people do you see looking at their phones? If you’re somewhere that I like to call “a place of waiting,” such as a doctor’s office, airport or the DMV, then chances are, everyone you see is staring at a screen.

As a server at a restaurant, I notice people on dates paying more attention to their phones than each other. I know I am also guilty of being on my phone instead of spending time with the people around me, but I am challenging myself to have more face-to-face time instead. I don’t want to miss out on the memories because I was scrolling through my Twitter feed.

According to eMarketer, “US adults will spend an average of 3 hours, 35 minutes per day on mobile devices in 2018…” When we think about the hours dedicated to sleep and work/school each day, three plus hours is a lot of time. If the average person sleeps eight

hours a day, works eight hours a day and is on their phone for at least three hours a day, then there are only five hours left for interpersonal relationships.

Why is it so hard for us to put our phones down and talk to the people around us?

“So many people are addicted to their phones because they provide us with instant feedback and instant gratification,” said psychotherapist Tom Kersting in an interview with Adria Valdes Greenhauff, a writer for The List. Kersting said, “Want to know the weather forecast?

Okay. Need to know the name of that actor from that movie?

No problem. Want to talk to your uncle in California? Okay, no problem. Because we rely on them for just about everything, when we don’t have them we go into withdrawal.”

Just like other addictions, the habit is hard to break. But I challenge you to put your phone away and interact with the people around you. Start by establishing a rule as simple as “No phones at the kitchen table” and take it from there.

NORTHERNIOWAN.COM

then nothing will change on the internet.

Now, what might change the internet significantly is what Article 13 proposes to do. This law can be summed up by calling it a “upload filter.” Article 13 dictates that websites like Facebook and YouTube will have to scan every piece of data uploaded to their website to make sure there is no copyrighted content in the upload (Verge).

This may not seem too bad, as sites like YouTube will already take down videos that infringe on copyrights. Article 13 is different from this. Instead of rights holders being able to go to YouTube and targeting a particular video, this filter will be applied universally to every single video on YouTube. That means everything from movie reviews to plays could never have a chance at being published.

Worse still, this also sets the grounds for censorship at a mass scale. Every single video on YouTube going through a mass filter can easily be abused and there would be no way for consumers to know. Someone could make a video reviewing a movie and the company in hold of the rights could stop that video from being published solely because the reviewer was talking about the movie.

VOLUME 115, ISSUE 7

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Opinion colunmist Sam King writes about the recent EU Articles 11 and 13 and the impact they would have on the United States in addition to Europe.

This also creates a burden for smaller websites. YouTube would have the money and size to create a massive filter, but what would smaller websites do? Many wouldn’t have the money or expertise to make it happen. As a result, they would have to stay away from all copyrighted content or just give up.

These may be EU rulings, but they still affect the world.

YouTube might be able to spare non-Europeans from the massive filter. However, if you’re a company or a content creator, don’t expect to reach Europe as a market.

Your video might be available in the US and other countries, but it could easily get blocked in Europe.

This will affect everyone.

These articles assault people’s free speech and creative abilities. Ironically, I hardly see anyone raising flags about these articles that could censor people on a global scale, but I still see people being upset that Twitter is enforcing its rules over online harassment.

I can’t understand why the EU decided to stomp on people’s ability to be creative and speak freely. Any content creator living under the EU’s rulings would have to deal with the virtual nightmare of wondering what the government will allow them to make content about.

I sincerely hope these rulings change or are not used to their full effectiveness.

We’ll have to wait and see.

Traveling the world with study abroad ANNA FLANDERS Staff Writer

On Wednesday, Sept. 19, the Study Abroad Center will conduct its biggest recruiting event, the Study Abroad Fair. The event will be held at the Old Central Ballroom in Maucker Union from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Fair attendees will be able to find tables representing both UNI’s short-term and long-term study abroad programs.

Paula VanZee, director of the Study Abroad Center, recommends that students who come to the fair think about where they want to travel and then visit the tables featuring that location. Students should ask the people at those tables about options for their major in that particular location.

“Usually we tell students that when you go abroad, it’s such a big change,” VanZee said. “We want you to learn about another culture. We want you to get immersed. We want you to learn all that. We usually tell students ‘Try not to take all your major courses abroad.’ If you’re gonna take major courses, try to take one major course, maybe two, but then try to take elective courses as well.”

VanZee also encourages students to think about how long they would like to study abroad. Long-term programs can be for the duration of a semester, a summer or an entire year. Short-term programs — the more popular option, according to VanZee — are typically two to four weeks long. During short-term programs, students travel with a faculty member and 15 to 20 fellow students. Often times, these are capstone courses.

Some of the faculty members leading these programs will be managing tables at the fair.

“A lot of times students

“They didn’t put on the contest last year, and I was kind of disappointed,” Funke said.

“And then they weren’t gonna do it again this year, and when I heard that I said, ‘I’ve got to do it. Someone’s got to do it.’”

Contest prizes included gift cards for Chad’s Pizza and products from Butler and Sons Barber Shop in Waterloo.

While the original Oktoberfest is a two-week festival held annually in Munich, Germany, smaller versions of the festival have been gaining popularity across the United States.

“I think because us as Americans are from all over

think that ‘Oh, I don’t wanna go. I’m just starting to get used to the UNI campus,’” VanZee said. “In those cases, we usually gear students toward the program where you travel with a group — the faculty-led programs. We encourage students to come, just to learn about options and decide maybe yes, maybe it is for me.”

Students can study abroad as early as their second semester at UNI. VanZee also wanted students to know that they can apply their financial aid to study abroad programs, which are not as expensive as they might think.

Student employees and full-time staff from the Study Abroad Center, all of whom have studied abroad themselves, will be managing some of the tables at the fair. Other tables will be managed by past study abroad participants. This is one of the requirements for students who receive a Study Abroad Center-sponsored scholarship. the place, we like to celebrate being American, but we also like to celebrate the cultures that we come from,” Sogard said.

“And I think it’s just a way for people to learn more about their heritage outside of the U.S. and kind of celebrate that — even if you [. . .] might not be German — it’s kind of a way to learn about the culture.”

“I really love community activities, mostly when it does involve somebody’s heritage,” said Kassi Decuir, a senior double majoring in psychology and leisure, youth and human services. “You know, getting to see a piece of somebody’s roots.”

The fair will feature several newer programs, including capstones to Ghana, Uganda, Sweden, Peru, Colombia, Panama and Japan. Due to a high demand for programs in Greece, Study Abroad will be offering two programs in Greece for the first time, both for College of Business students. This December will also be the first time ever that Study Abroad will offer a capstone in Spain over winter break.

However, since this program is already full, it will not be featured in the fair.

Florence University of the Arts (FUA) and Veritas University, two of UNI’s partner universities, will also be present.

“We encourage students to start planning very early on, because the earlier you plan, the better options that you can get good courses abroad,” VanZee said. “And the idea is for you to still graduate on time — in your four years. So the earlier you come and plan

it within your four years, you should still be able to graduate on time.”

The Black Hawk County Recorder’s Office will be at the fair to help people renew their passports. This is open not only to students, but also fac-

ulty members and the public.

For those planning to renew their passports, there are additional documents they will need to bring. For exact requirements, check the UNI Study Abroad Center’s website.

Music from vinyl records emanated throughout the block from a tent occupied by ZZZ Records of Des Moines.

Milkbox Bakery and Latin American food truck La Calle provided food and treats for purchase.

The Pear Fair was begun in 2010 by Mohair Pear owner Barb Schilf, who wanted to showcase handmade prod-

ucts, according to a press release.

“We’ve always pushed the local angle and this was a way to make it real,” Schilf said in the press release.

“Real, local people making things. Really cool and creative things.”

The Panthers came back onto the field in the second half making a quarterback change as Eli Dunne took over for the struggling Howell. “I’m a competitor,”said Dunne. “I knew my time wasn’t over after Montana and everyone still had my back.”

Despite the change, UNI still struggled with play on the offensive side of the ball. After a 37 yard punt

by Zac Kibby, the Panthers fumbled the ball and missed a 45 yard field goal wide to the right. Meanwhile the Iowa offense continued to roll. Off the missed Panther field goal, the Hawkeyes scored a rushing touchdown by Torren Young to put Iowa up 38-0.

UNI finally cracked the scoreboard with a Dunne touchdown pass to Briley

Moore at the Iowa four yard line.

“Things came out slow and then picked up in the end,” Moore said after the game. Complimenting Dunne, Moore praised his quarterback’s relaxed attitude coming into the game in the second half. “He came in with confidence.

We’re fortunate to have him at quarterback.”

UNI was able to put up another touchdown on the board with a five yard pass to Elias Nissen to cut into the deficit as the final minutes ticked away.

Despite the late push, UNI was unable to fire up the running game and finished with six net yards rushing, 222 passing yards and 228 total yards, compared to Iowa’s 545 total yards.

They fell 38-14.

“Eli did a super job in today’s game,” said Coach Farley in his postgame press conference. “We have to go back to practice, take a look and find out where we need to make adjustments.”

Farley also confirmed after the game that Eli Dunne will start at quarterback for the Panthers home opener

Looking forward to next week, Farley noted how he will prepare for the next game. “We need to find the guys who are the guts and

the blood of this team and they’re going to start.”

The Panthers will face off against the Hampton Pirates this Saturday, Sept. 22 in the UNI-Dome.

Kickoff is set for 4 p.m.
