Over the next two days, the UNI Department of Communication Studies will host the Clohesy Documentary Film Series, featuring documentary filmmaker, philanthropist and social activist Abigail Disney, who is a member of the famous Disney filmmaking family.

Today, a screening of Disney’s film “Armor of

Light” will be held in Lang Hall Auditorium at 7:30 p.m.

Tomorrow, Disney will give a public lecture at 10 a.m. in the Rod Library Scholar Space, which will be followed later in the day by a screening of her film “Pray the Devil Back to Hell” in Sabin Hall, Room 002, at 7:30 p.m.

Since 2011, the Department of Communication Studies has hosted the Clohesy Documentary Film Series to showcase both the filmmakers and the processes that go on

behind the scenes of documentary filmmaking.

The film series is named after William Clohesy, a UNI professor of philosophy, and his wife Stephanie, who runs a philanthropic consultation business in Cedar Falls.

William and Stephanie Clohesy have always had a deep appreciation for the art of documentary filmmaking and wanted to share that with the students of UNI and the Cedar Falls community. Over the past six years, they’ve selected vari-

Disney was chosen to visit UNI this year for her focus on humanitarian issues such as women’s rights and peace.

“Abigail’s work is very much involved in current debates and culture and, particularly, about women’s issues and peace building,” said Chris Martin, communication studies professor.  See CLOHESY, page 2

Last Thursday, April 20, performance art students bared it all at their annual spring showcase known as VertigoMini. As with many performance art shows, audience members aren’t always sure of what to expect when they walk in.

The same was true of this show, which was free to the public and took place in the Kamerick Art Building.

“It’s all part of the experience of performance art,” said Noah Doely, an assistant professor in the art department. “It’s encountering the unexpected.”

Whether the performance artists walked around with a trail of plastic bottles following them, or were locked in a glass case undressing and trying on different pieces of clothing, the halls of the Kamerick Art Building were transformed into a canvas onto which the performance artists applied their craft.

One performance piece featured a male student lying on a bed encouraging passersby to come spoon with him — an offer that

Elsewhere in the building, another artist was wailing and moaning the word “No,” while another simply screamed “Next!” and welcomed a student into a dark room before slamming the door shut behind them.

A line quickly formed outside the door, as students wondered aloud to each other what exactly lay behind that door.

As it turned out, after the door slammed behind a student, the same woman who had previously screamed asked each student to sign and date a form — a non-disclosure agreement. When the form was signed and dated, she opened a drawer and presented the student with two options: a tampon or a sucker.

Whichever one the student picked, the opposite was inserted in their mouth, after which point they were asked to sit while the next person was yelled at to come in. Doely, who had a tampon inserted in his mouth, described the sensation, saying, “[It] can be a startling experience for some people, but it’s just part of the experience.”  See VERTIGO MINI, page 5

CABapalooza on the horizon APRIL 24, 2017

Associate Executive Editor

This Thursday, April 27, UNI’s Campus Activities Board (CAB) will be hosting their annual “CABapalooza” on Lawther Field from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.

CAB has worked through a rebrand of not only its look, but also its identity.

And then the other piece she’ll be showing, ‘The Armor of Light,’ also deals with some of those same issues.”

“CABapalooza is an end of the year event basically to celebrate the semester coming to an end,” Miller said. “The event will have a DJ, tattoos, caricatures and various inflatables. There will also be some great prizes inspired by summertime.”

According to Miller, the planning for Thursday’s event started at the beginning of the spring semester, and the entire CAB organization has helped in this planning process.

According to Mitch Leonard, junior public relations major and CAB publicity co-executive, this week’s “CABapalooza” event will mark the start of a new era for CAB, as the organization is planning to execute a rebranding effort throughout next year.

Martin stressed the series’ impact on the UNI community.

“I thought it was a really great idea to get started, and I thought it would be a big asset to the department of communication studies and the university and community as a whole,” Martin said.

He said the film series also benefits students by exposing them to successful filmmakers in the business.

“I mean, it is an amazing privilege to be able to be in a small auditorium and see this person’s work and then hear her talk about her work. It’s just really an incredible opportunity.”

This year’s series features two documentary films that both address difficult topics and reveal the necessity to address them and to find peace.

“We’ve also really looked — you know, when we’ve looked at an array of films, we tend to be attracted to the ones that are really covering some tough and difficult issues in the area of human and social justice,” S. Clohesy said.

Stephanie and William present these topics due to their own interest in social and human justice, but also to help students and people in the community gain an understanding of how these

“This refreshed identity is just the beginning — the goal is that it’s the catalyst for an organizational culture change for what is to come,” Leonard.

“There have [been] many people who put many hours of hard work into this process.

“I also think that both the two films, they raise sort of different issues, but, of course, there’s kind of a common thread of the humanity of trying to do the right thing,” S. Clohesy said.

Florida Georgia Line review APRIL 24, 2017

NORTHERNIOWAN.COM

|

LEZIGA BARIKOR

Associate Campus Life Editor

The award-winning country duo Florida Georgia Line (FGL) made their second stop in Iowa in the past 10 months, this time in the UNI-Dome as part of the “Dig You Roots” tour on April 21.

Fans went crazy as the pair, Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard, descended onto the stage from elevated platforms and a semi-truck in the background, to start off the show singing, “This is How We Roll.” To my surprise, the duo was touting general bling and Kelley had on a gold chain and a backwards cap along with their denim.

FGL maintained the high energy by singing, “It’z Just What We Do,” “Round Here” and “Anything Goes.”

The stage made use of pyrotechnics and entertaining b-roll of the duo and other touring members. I always find something personal and endearing about these short clips of band members goofing off and hanging out while on the road, and FGL made good use of it.

I received a lot of mixed remarks from friends when I told them I was going to this concert. There seems to be a definite divide between country music fans who resent the hip hop influenced sound that is unique to FGL, but I think it works.

From the rapping to creative uses of auto-tune, FGL’s style reflects the younger generation of country fans who do occasionally listen to Drake but prefer to party in the honky-tonk. It’s a newer way of making music, but I think the breaking of genre molds is the new frontier.

The “Dig Your Roots” tour aesthetic truly settled in once a bunch of inflatable trees were raised up on the stage. Singing their titular song, Kelley, referring to himself as BK and the next front man as “T-Hubs,” introduced the more personal side of the group. His message about growing up in a rural area, and staying rooted in their hometowns, resonated well with the audience.

One standout performance during the night was of the song “Dirt.” The atmosphere of the crowd was vibrant and appreciative towards this song, which is notably more country and

less party-like lyrically.

As hazy white stage lights filled the stage, FGL sang an appraisal to the refrain, which felt very off the cuff and intimate, belting out, “Makes you wanna build a 10 percent down white picket fence house on this dirt.”

BK invited the audience to raise a cup to themselves for coming out to enjoy the show and, without missing a beat, plugged FGL’s Old Camp Whiskey brand. In a move of musical marketing genius, FGL performed “Smooth,” which is also the title of their upcoming 2017 summer tour that will feature Nelly and The Backstreet Boys.

Throughout the night, there seemed to be an unofficial solo cup stacking competition in the works.

My fear was that someone would spill beer on me, but I managed to leave the event unscathed. One man had 12 solo cups stacked during the opening sets, which was right before FGL. An artist also encouraged an audience member to chug one of the drinks they were “double-fisting” with much crowd enthusiasm.

In another moment with a personal touch, FGL performed “Life is a Honeymoon,” dedicating the song to their wives. The big screens filled with footage from both Hubbard and Kelley’s weddings, which gained supportive cheers from the crowd. Their twotime platinum No. 1 song “H.O.L.Y.” received even more enthusiasm as BK sat down at a pristine white piano and Hubbard played the guitar.

Bringing back the party atmosphere, FGL invited their openers Seth Ennis, Chris Lane and Dustin Lynch back on stage to perform “Sun Daze” and then “Party People.” And since

nightly concerts can’t go on without this particular moment, FGL had fans turn on the cell phone flashlights to perform “Get Your Shine On.” The show ended with a medley of pop song covers, again proving that FGL isn’t afraid to cross the music genre divide for a little fun.

From “Ride Wit Me” to “This is How We Do It” and “Jump Around,” they hyped up the energy before closing with “Cruise.”

Ennis, the first opener, received little crowd attention, and Lane only had slightly more success. Lynch, on the other hand, brought the energy up and put on a great show in his own right. He performed most of his well-known songs, such as “Seein’ Red,” where Lynch took the opportunity to highlight his “manhood” to the excitement of some female fans, but I found it quite nauseating and obnoxious.

Lynch also performed “Cowboys and Angels,” and introduced his new unreleased song “Love Me or Leave Me,” simmering down the tone of his set. But Lynch heated things up at the end with “Where It’s At” and made sure the big screens got one last look at his crotch before exiting the stage.

It’s worth note that three of the performing artists, including FGL, took a moment to thank the US military and uniformed service members. Lynch went even further, bringing out an ecstatic older man decked out entirely in denim and the American flag, ending the song with a USA chant.

FGL debates set aside, one could not mistake the night as anything else but a country music concert — and for my first — I found FGL to be an enjoyable show.

LTE: Veteran responds to ‘Military Violence’

VOLUME 113, ISSUE 53

Last Monday, the Northern Iowan published an opinion piece that infuriated me to the point of writing this response.

I consider myself, normally, rather mild mannered, but the offensive comments therein were reprehensible.

In the referenced article, the author chose to end her argument by calling the United States Military a “terrorist organization.” This kind of rhetoric is completely uncalled for and harkens back to the Vietnam war of the late 60s and early 70s in which military personnel were persecuted by a discontent public which had misplaced their anger.

I am a member of the United States Army and have served in Afghanistan twice.

I have witnessed the destruction of war the previous author seems to loathe (likely not having experienced it for themselves) and experienced what true terror can be.

I have served both tours in a medical capacity, as a combat medic defending my compatriots and as a flight medic picking up the wounded of all parties involved. I have had to treat friends, comrades and civilians all caught in the injustice of true terrorist attacks.

The men and women of your armed forces are not there for profit or personal gain. They are there because they chose to raise their hand in defense of freedom no mat-

ter where oppression rears its ugly head.

I have seen the Afghan people struggling against oppression. They have accepted our help in making their country a better place and are willing to die for it. They are tired not of war but of the narrow-minded ways of the past, where women are denied education, beaten and traded as if they were livestock.

Where religious intolerance stifles the minority and the fear of change suppresses the betterment of their society.

The people who have volunteered their lives in defense of your freedoms are not your punching bag. Calling the US Military a terrorist organization is equivalent to using a racial slur, stands on the same bigoted ground as xenophobia or homophobia and absolutely should not be tolerated.

What’s more is that this kind of prejudiced rhetoric only cheapens one’s arguments and should have been left out entirely.

I hope that the readers of this column understand the hardship that the military endures in order to support those in the most horrific of circumstances. Do well to remember, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing” – Edmund Burke.

Loeffelholz wasn’t the only one to have that sort of experience. There were people stopping to simply shake their heads in astonishment while viewing an exhibit, while others looked as if they were in tears.

Michelle Joyce, a junior

SOFTBALL

Softball loss at Loyola, 14-6 in MVC DYLAN PADY

The UNI women’s softball team had a strong start to their weekend after a close 7-6 victory against Loyola in Chicago. After Friday’s affairs, they would lose both games, 0-1, and finish the series 1-2 with an overall record of 26-17.

Despite holding a two-game losing streak, UNI is still 14-6 within the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) and a powerhouse in Cedar Falls with a home record of 12-3. Away games are more balanced; the Panthers sit at 7-9 on the road.

Loyola earned the first runs of the evening off a double RBI down left field.

When UNI was up to bat, Sammey Bunch singled to right field and got to second after an error by Loyola’s right fielder. Anna Varriano then made it to home and tied the game 1-1.

This game was a constant back and forth effort, because right after the game was tied, Loyola hit a two-person homerun and took the lead once again.

But the Panthers would not back down, and hit back to back single homeruns by Ashley Chesser and Jaclyn Spencer both reaching for the fences down the left

field line. Loyola got one more run off a double in the bottom of the fourth inning, but UNI took the lead in the fifth with a two-person homerun, with Brittney Roby and Brittney Krodinger scoring on the at bat by Macey Wolfe.

Everything was tied up 6-6 in the bottom of the seventh, after Loyola flied out to center field and got the RBI. Both teams showcased great defense in the eighth inning, as the final run was not earned until the ninth. Brittney Krodinger singled down the right field line and brought Kennedy Bailey in for the RBI. UNI won by one run in a complete grinder of a softball game.

UNI lost their second two games of the series, first one 0-1 in 10 innings and the other 0-1 in seven.

Their next game will be in Cedar Falls against Drake University. Last time these two teams faced off it was in Des Moines earlier this month. UNI won 3-0 in the first game and a whopping 12-0 to close the weekend. Fans in attendance are encouraged to wear pink to match the theme. After Drake, UNI will travel to Ames for one single game against instate rival, Iowa State University.

Grizzlies are also tied 2-2 after Memphis hit a last second shot

in OT to claim the victory over San Antonio.

NBA season heating up in April

OPINION

DYLAN PADY

Sports Editor

The NBA playoffs are just finishing up game four of a seven game series and as of press time, the Celtics, Bulls, Rockets, Thunder, Clippers and the Jazz have yet to compete. Chicago, Houston and Los Angeles all currently possess a 2-1 lead over their opponent but that is scheduled to change before Monday morning. I still believe the Celtics will beat the Bulls, Rockets will beat the Thunder and I would be extremely content if the Jazz beat the Clippers.

The Utah Jazz won the first game of their series against Los Angeles this season.

Utah’s organization had not won a playoff game since 2010 when they beat the Nuggets,

4-2. A favorite player for any Jazz fan would be Gordon Hayward, the 6’8” shooting guard who was drafted as the ninth pick in the first round of the 2010 NBA draft.

In his first couple seasons with the Jazz, Hayward averaged 16 minutes played and just under six points scored.

In his most recent regular season, Hayward averages 34.5 minutes played, 22 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists. In his most recent loss against the Clippers, Hayward had 40 points, nine rebounds, four assists and two blocks. He is not as recognized as other great players, although I find him underrated. Check him out on the court tonight as the Jazz defends their home court for game four in Salt Lake City.

In the Chicago v. Boston series, a lot of the media’s

attention has gone to the Celtics and how they were going to steamroll past Chicago. After winning two games and leading the series, the media quickly changed their perspective of the Bulls and the team’s success, essentially hopping on the bandwagon. Jimmy Butler, the 6’7” shooting guard for the Bulls is an explosive player and a lot of fun to watch on the court.

In this season’s playoff games, Butler has earned 66 points, 11 assists and is shooting just under .50 percent in field goals and .286 percent from downtown.

In other news, Cleveland advanced to the second round after beating the Pacers, 4-0.

Warriors lead the Trailblazers 3-0, Wizards lead the Hawks 2-1, Raptors and Bucks are tied at 2-2. The Spurs and the
