CEDAR FALLS, IOWA

David Zarifis, director of the Department of Public Safety, has been associated with the University of Northern

Iowa since 1970. On Monday, April 30, after more than 40 years of association with UNI, he will retire.

“UNI has been home for me for a long time. I will miss it and the peo-

ple,” Zarifis said. “The university has been very good to me, and you just hope that in your own way, you’ve been able to give something back to it.”

According to Zarifis, Milissa Wright, associate

director of public safety, will serve as interim director until a new director is hired. Jan Hanish, assistant vice president of outreach and special < See ZARIFIS, page 3

UNI athletics considers increasing student fees to reduce general fund allocation JOHN ANDERSON SOFTBALL

n the 2010-2011 academic year, the University of Northern Iowa allocated $4.6 million from its general education fund to athletics, a number members of United Faculty, the faculty union, believe is too high.

Troy Dannen, UNI’s athletic director, agrees. “(UNI’s investment in athletics) is coming from a source that — and

I’ve advocated this since the day I got here — it’s the wrong source. It shouldn’t come from the general fund,” he said in an interview earlier this month. “It’s in my best interest as athletic director for it to come from a more sustainable area.”

While all of UNI’s rivals in the Missouri Valley Conference receive subsidies from their institutions, many of them depend more < See ATHLETICS, page 2

on student fees than general fund allocations, including Southern Illinois University and Illinois State University, which each received more than $8 million last year.

Over the course of the next several years, Dannen would like to see UNI move to this student-fee-based model, with the general fund allocation ideally dropping down to match the $1.2 million student fee subsidy and the amount of student fees rising to $4.6 million to accompany that change – all with the $5.8 million total institutional subsidy remaining relatively constant.

In the past few years, the UNI faculty senate passed resolutions calling on the administration to reduce the amount of general fund monies going to auxiliaries to 3 percent of the fund and to 1 percent of the fund during times of financial emergencies. Many faculty see athletics subsidies as funds that should go to education, especially when cuts are being made to academics.

“These (subsidies) are real costs to the academic vitality of the university, that serve as a significant drain on resources available to academic teaching, particularly in light of recent initiatives to shave limited dollars out of current academic programs,” Frank Thompson,

a finance professor, said in a report on UNI auxiliaries prepared for faculty members earlier this year.

The student fee model could assuage concerns from faculty members and state politicians about UNI’s use of general funds to support athletics, which currently receives nearly 3 percent of the university’s general fund.

The student fee model could also prove more sustainable for the athletics program, Dannen said.

“It’s not subject to the ebb and flow of state appropriation,” he said. “As enrollment grows, there’s an opportunity for growth in that.”

The move to this new model would also mean an increased cost for students, however, as student fees would increase while tuition

dollars currently going to athletics would likely be reallocated rather than reduced.

Dannen believes such an increase would need to happen in small increments over a number of years.

“It’s a matter of how quickly,” he said. “… I would prefer to be as quick as possible, but I don’t think it’s fair or reasonable for that type of burden to be thrown onto students overnight.”

Earlier this year, intercollegiate athletics submitted a request for a 3 percent increase from the Student Services Fee (SSF) for fiscal year 2014. More recently, however, athletics also submitted a proposal to increase the fee by $25 per student every year for next eight years, increases that would be accompanied by general fund

reductions. Though no decision was made by press time, the SSF committee has discussed honoring the former request, which falls in line with the Higher Education Pricing Index range.

The committee has also discussed separating athletics fees from the SSF altogether to make athletic fee increases more transparent.

“The committee believes that at this point (athletics) should be made its own fee separate from the student services fee so that students understand exactly how much of their money is going to support athletics, which the committee then hopes will start a discussion about whether or not athletics is something students want to support through additional fees,” said Spencer Walrath,

SSF committee chair and former student body president.

Though it’s currently unclear whether the university administration and the Board of Regents would support the creation of a separate fee, Walrath said the SSF committee felt athletics no longer applies under the SSF. “We see the Student Services Fee as covering actual services to students — so, leadership training, the Northern Iowan, (Campus Activities Board) programming,” he said. “These are services provided to students, whereas athletics is really a service provided to, you could argue, to the entire Cedar Falls community, the entire UNI community or to 400 student-athletes. It depends on which way you look at it.”

programs, will serve as chair of the search committee. After vetting candidates, she will recommend someone for Michael Hager, vice president of administration and financial services, to appoint.

Zarifis first received his bachelor’s and master’s degree from UNI and began working at the university in 1988.

Zarifis said he will miss the “interaction between faculty, staff and students the most.” He said it’s neat to see students who he worked with while they were in school now in law enforcement.

According to Zarifis, his position as director of public safety has evolved significantly through the years, with the job requirements increasing each year. He said there has been increased cooperation with law enforcement and the Department of Education because of the shooting incident at Virginia Tech and violent incidents on UNI’s campus.

Having a potential gunman on campus, the Gilchrist Hall fires and the rides on College Hill during Homecoming count among Zarifis’ most stressful times as director of public safety.

Zarifis also said obtaining firearms for campus police officers was a key issue during his time here. He said officers now have the ability to protect themselves as well as the general population

and are much better prepared to handle issues.

Zarifis said staying on top of these issues and working on a campus “keeps him young” and is very challenging.

“We want to make sure we make decisions that don’t put anyone at risk,” Zarifis said. “It’s about how we deal with the people, and I’ve tried to stress that over the years.”

He said the work is never done in the department and the work is never routine with “every day being a new day.” According to Zarifis, the unpredictability is part of the allure of the position, but it can also make the position stressful.

Zarifis said his age and health factored into his decision to retire, but he’s mainly retiring because the “timing just felt right.”

He thanked the Department of Public Safety and other officials on campus for their effort working against violence against women and the promotion of sexual awareness issues on campus. Zarifis said they’ve done an excellent job getting grants, providing information and education to faculty, staff and students and just “being aware of humans and how we treat each other.”

In retirement, Zarifis said he plans to do what “my wife tells me.” He said he has plenty of projects to work on, but, as of yet, no permanent opportunity has availed itself.

Education Lecture.

Using photographs of the concentration camps, Auerbacher spoke on the loss of her humanity, which she said was taken away during the ages of 7-10.

“I was born in 1934, and by 1935, I was no longer a citizen. It is funny now to think that I was brought to life by a Nazi — the only doctor in a Jewish village,” said Auerbacher, who has been of Jewish faith since birth.

After being interned for three years in Terezin, Auerbacher was reunited with her parents, who had also survived imprisonment. Of the 1,200 individuals transported to the camp, only 13 survivors remained when the Russians liberated Terezin in 1945.

“You have to strive in life.

Nothing is easy — life is a struggle,” Auerbacher said. “We have to fight. I’m going to do what I have to do. You’re not going to ruin that dream.”

Auerbacher ended her presentation by saying she hopes people today “make a little more noise.”

“It was a tough economy (during the time of WWII), and everyone followed blindly, and the world was silent. I hope that we make a little more noise today,” Auerbacher said.

“Forgiveness is a problematic word. To forgive or not to forgive is not important. You don’t have to love anybody, but fight against hate.”

op 40 radio. The pop songs that make us feel good or the corporate machine that turn talented (or untalented) artists into cash cows. Whatever your take, it’s hard to miss. Typically, I pay little to no attention to pop radio. It’s not that I annoy friends with anti-corporate ramblings or am an annoying hipster (man, not even a paragraph in and I’m slamming hipsters) – I just like the classics. Lately, there is one gosh darn pop song that I cannot, for the life of me, get out of my head: “We Are Young” by Fun. Some of you may be grinning ear to ear that I am mentioning this.

Some also might be hissing from behind some Ray-Ban frames (all right, I swear I am done with the hipster hate). Love it or hate it, you have to admit that this is one of the catchiest songs you have ever heard. I thought “Good Life” by One Republic had its claws in me for a while, but I haven’t experienced song-stuck-inheadedness like this before. What really got to me was the fact that not only was this a song that got stuck in your head, but you didn’t mind that it was stuck in your head. You kind of like it. For me, that really says something.

Now we get to the crazy, fun stuff.

I was pondering about this song one day when I came to a somewhat

wild conclusion. This song, “We Are Young,” could be a potential candidate for the theme song of our generation. Now, I realize this is nuts.

This single dropped in September of last year and has only gotten popular in the last couple of months. What makes it a contender this early? Or have I just been sucked under the music machine?

Whether or not I am making a mountain out of a molehill is yet to be seen here, but let’s dig deeper. This song does some significant things, at least for me. One thing that really impresses me about this song is what it isn’t. It isn’t bass beats and threeword choruses. It isn’t riddled with acoustic, whiny self-pity anthems.

Really, it has a little bit of everything in the sound of it. Now, I don’t claim to be a musical genius in either knowledge or skill; I’m just talking about what I hear and what I like. I guess what I am trying to get at is that it doesn’t sound like our generation. And that’s ok.

Now, regardless of musical merit, I know people will criticize anything that sounds different and hits success.

“The music industry is just using the sounds of ‘real’ music to make a buck. You’re being suckered,” is the typical response I get when I admit to liking this song. Or any Top 40 hit for that matter. If there is nothing

else tangible that I can latch onto to prove a point, then this is all I’ve got.

This song is one of the most positive songs to break big. I mean that both in sound and feeling of the listener.

Was it the intention of Fun. to come off so positive? Unlikely, but let’s face it, our generation is downright depressing to be around sometimes. The general vibe on anything I tend to get from peers is either cynicism beyond hope, recovery or salvage, or self-absorption and ignorance to the point where it’s just as sickening as the cynics. So when I hear something that makes me feel like life isn’t too dreadful while also maintaining a chorus that seems to match, I pay attention. That’s why it could stick: because our generation needs a positive vibe to latch on to.

We aren’t exactly a happy bunch.

This group could totally fizzle out in the coming months or years; I realize this. Nonetheless, I think this will be something that will make an appearance on the Now That’s What I Call Music 2010s mix. It will be overplayed and make disgusting, forced appearances in ads (already has), but you know what? I like it, and so do a lot of people. Maybe this can be something to point to in 20 years. Or I’ve been suckered out of my $1.29. Either way, in the words of my own Gen-Y: sorry ‘bout it.

My inevitable farewell For four years, I have wondered what this column would be about. Would I end my column-writing career with advice to younger students? Would I reminisce on the amazing times I had in college? As I sit here now after four years of writing for the Northern Iowan, I still don’t have any idea. And with the deadline approaching in 10 minutes, I see that little in my approach has changed.

Yet as professor Bill Koch stressed (and my girlfriend always reminds me), whenever you don’t know what to write, just start writing.

Well, here goes one last time.

While I would love to write about another controversial topic that would flood my email inbox with angry comments, I feel compelled to put the back cover on this book. I have been writing newspaper opinion columns for more than six years now (extending back into high school) and this, as I head to law school, is the final one.

For most, my absence won’t matter and will just mean another person’s column is being skipped over each week. For some, this will be a relief in that they can now read something produced by someone much better than myself. For a few, I hope, this will be a sad loss.

In my first opinion column published by the Northern Iowan written freshman year, I stated that college didn’t feel too different from my life up until that point. I was surprised at how easy the transition had been. Inside, I was a bit disappointed that adapting to this life was so easy. I have always wondered why this was.

When I was in high school, I decided I wanted to attend art school with the Minneapolis College of Art and Design being the apple of my eye. Once I weighed my options against each other, however, I decided that Drake University was a better place for me to get an education. University of Northern Iowa? I hadn’t even considered it. The only thing I knew about it was that my girlfriend was heading there.

As a lovesick teenager, however, I decided to check the school out. On my first (and only) visit, I realized within minutes that I was not impressed with the school in any way. I kept this to myself, however, and decided to enroll for the sake of following my girlfriend. For those wondering, as most seem to be, we are still together and more in love with each other than ever before.

Always wanting to move to a bigger city or go to a more foreign school, I used to be bummed with end-

ing up in Cedar Falls at the University of Northern Iowa. In the end, however, I realize how amazing my haphazard decision to attend this school was.

The University of Northern Iowa is an amazing school. While I have been critical of non-Main-Street Cedar Falls and Waterloo in the past, I have nothing but respect for the university.

This place has provided me with opportunities I never thought I’d have and successes beyond my wildest dreams.

I have learned so much from amazing individuals and would like to thank each and every person who has taught me here. The faculty and staff here are truly beyond description. Never before have I met such impassioned and knowledgeable people eager to help others grow.

Looking back, I couldn’t have imagined getting an education anywhere but here.

I have been blessed to have the two most generous parents in the world footing the expense of this education. Their generosity, simply put, has made me able to grow both personally and intellectually. I know that not everyone is able to have such supportive families, but I am eternally grateful for their selfless sacrifice. They have always been there for me and made my education possible even beyond financial concerns.

Oddly enough, it is the care package from my father before finals every semester that I will perhaps miss the most. I suppose sometimes it’s the little things that mean the most.

As I approach my dreaded (and often ignored) word limit, I guess I must finally stop. In the end, I suppose the answers to my initial questions were more clichéd than I had hoped. This has, simply put, turned into the typical senior column reminiscing about the good times and thanking those who helped them along the way.

Since this is case, I might as well top it off with the all-important tip for future students.

As my mom has made sure to make clear over the years, find yourself a partner who will help you through college. I sure know I wouldn’t have made it without my girlfriend’s aid. Maybe my aforementioned surprise in regards to the ease of this whole experience was because of her.

One thing is for sure, though. No matter how well she kept me on track, she could never get me to turn in a column on time.

A QUASH-ing good time to fundraise JACOB STEWART Staff Writer

Students raised $10,372 Friday as they competed in puzzles, games and quizzes across the University of Northern Iowa campus during the third annual Quest to Unravel Alzheimer’s Scavenger Hunt (QUASH).

Participants registered in groups of two to four and their themes ranged from “The Party Quashers,” a group of students dressed in bright colors and wigs, to “The Hot Quashed Buns,” who were dressed as bakers and wore fake bottoms over their pants.

“This whole thing is kind of my baby,” said Kacie Swanson, a UNI alumna. “We QUASH because we care.”

Another team, “Squashing Memory Loss,” wore all black with multicolored tutus.

Ashley Quint, a junior family services major, said “the tutus were mainly to embarrass the boys on the team.”

Each team was given a sealed envelope and told not to open it until instructed to do so. The envelope contained clues, rules and boundaries for the playing field. The clues led to various spots on campus, and there were special “QUASH Spots” which contained mental and physical challenges. The students were released from the West Gym shortly after 6 p.m.

One of these spots was located in front of Curris Business Building and was called “Top Your Tart.” Teams would choose one person to reach into a bag of condiment packages and select a handful to spread on a Pop-Tart. No matter what condiments were pulled out, each person on the team had to take one bite, and the Pop-Tart had to be completely eaten before the team could move on.

“We’ve had a few people almost throw up,” said Nick Seeve, a sophomore accounting major who volunteered Friday night.

On top of Maucker Union, students found themselves putting together a tangram in one of two shapes using several different pieces. The roof had room for six teams to try, and it filled up fast.

“It’s much harder than it looks,” remarked Chris Hofeldt, a senior public relations major and one of the volunteers for the night.

One of the mental challenge spots was located just outside Biscotti’s, a snack shop in the Redeker Center.

Students were given a sheet with fill-in-the-blank questions based on a video they saw earlier in the evening.

Students began trickling into the West Gym around 7:30 p.m., having completed as many challenges as they thought they could. By 8 p.m., everyone had returned, and prizes were given out to teams for various accomplishments.

“Hot Quashed Buns” won the best costume award and “The

sporting pieces from various student collections graced the runway.

The entire exhibition was divided into four subthemes: Rubies (easy-to-wear garments), Zoomanity (inner animal inspired fashion), Funambulist (formal wear), and Delirium (non-traditional art pieces designed to be worn).

In between sets, the audience was entertained with stunts by acrobatic clowns Kaylen Gesaman, sophomore movement and exercise science major, and freshman

Kassie Kulas. There was also a glow-in-the-dark baton performance by junior Katy Paulson. All acts and fashions were introduced by “ringleader” announcer Ian Goldsmith, senior theatre major and former student body vice president.

The 20th annual fashion show not only provided entertainment, modeling opportunities and a chance for TAPP students to display their hard work and creativity, but also allowed students to gain experience in other areas of the fashion industry as well.

“I was part of the show last year, although I did not

submit a piece. I was able to help with hair and makeup,” said senior Ashley Meyers.

“By participating, I was able to cover a variety of areas in a field that I consider to be my passion.”

This year, Meyers showcased a piece entitled “Express Yourself ” for the Rubies section of Catwalk To The Big Top. The program concluded with a final viewing of more than 75 pieces created by approximately 20 student designers and a cascade of samples from TAPP alumni employed with companies, such as Maurices, Cabela’s, Aeropostale and Powers.

Though the University of Northern Iowa Tae KwonDo Club, an on-campus sporting group, teaches traditional Korean martial arts techniques, their golden rule is no fighting.

“The true philosophy of Tae Kwon-Do (is that) an individual can develop themselves to the point where they are strong enough to oppress an aggressor,” said chief instructor and Junior Grand Master Joseph Philip.

“Then you don’t have to fight.

Then that person is not your enemy.”

The Tae Kwon-Do Club has been at UNI for 42 years.

The club also offers separate classes available to the community. However, the reach of the club extends out of the Cedar Valley and boasts locations in Washington, Iowa; at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa; Florida State University in Tallahassee; and two locations in San Antonio, Texas.

According to the Tae Kwon-Do club website, the group is the “oldest collegiate traditional Tae KwonDo program in America” and has produced 673 black belts.

Junior Grand Master Joseph Philip is an eighth Dan black belt and is the most senior Junior Grand Master

in the United States. In order to reach this status, all of the Korean Grand Masters had to agree on his promotion.

“It’s quite an honor, because what the Korean grand masters are saying is that as they grow older and perhaps retire or die, then the guidance of traditional Tae Kwon-Do is going to fall upon me,” Philip said.

The teaching of Tae Kwon-Do that Philip conducts includes an emphasis on discipline, courtesy and respect, as well as the tenants of Tae Kwon-Do that include courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and indomitable spirit.

“Martial arts without discipline is nothing but street fighting,” Philip said.

Philip sees that the college students in his program reflect this discipline. He said the average GPA from last year was 3.5 and 65 percent of his graduating students attend graduate school.

“Tae Kwon-Do is a way of life. ... When you’re disciplined and you’re organized, you’re more productive,” Philip said.

Abby Zieman, president of the club, adds that the Tae Kwon-Do club can produce confidence.

“When you break a board, you’re feeling pretty confident, < See TAE KWON-DO, page 7

oped a way to defend themselves. The monks found this defense to also be an exercise.

However, the monks’ clothing, which is similar to the dobok uniforms found in Tae Kwon-Do today, would fly up while they practiced.

To solve this problem, monks would tie a sacred cloth, which they never washed, around their waists. One could tell if a monk was experienced in martial arts by looking at how dirty or tattered his belt was. This is why the colors of the belts in Tae Kwon-Do today become progressively darker to show experience and why students are encouraged to never wash their belts.

Classes occur Mondays through Thursdays from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Wellness and Recreation Center and are open to participants of any skill level.

All punches, kicks and other movements are developed in a basic exercise.

Students go up and down the floor practicing as a group.

Philip says this is why students with different ranks or amounts of experience can all be in the same class, because “each person is performing to their own individual skill level.”

Promotional testings are held every two months to allow students the opportunity to move up in the ranks.

Students are tested on form, a combination of various techniques put together and sparring. Brown and black belts must break boards.

“The reason why we do board breaking is because it requires 35 pounds of force to break a board. That is the amount of force required to break a human bone, except for femur and skull,” Philip said. “If a brown belt or black belt know they can break a board, then they know they have the confidence to stop an aggressor in a life-threatening situation.”

Students interested in joining the club are encouraged to check the group’s website, www.unitkd.com, or attend a practice to experience the group and meet Andrew McConnell, the club instructor.

and then that can just bleed over into your everyday life,” a senior biochemistry major.

“Self control and self discipline can be really helpful in academics. You have to discipline yourself to do your homework and go to class and all that stuff.”

The class is also used for physical exercise, balance and flexibility. Philip refers to the class as “an aerobic discipline,” and even requires students to be able to do a yoga headstand.

“The purpose of the headstand is that if you have balance standing on your head, then you will have balance when you walk upright,” Philip said.

Zieman also feels there is a social aspect to Tae KwonDo. “Even though we have practices and testings, the night before each testing we have a relaxation night,” she said. “We just get together and hang out, do some club bonding. A lot of my friends are in Tae Kwon-Do; that’s how I met a lot of people that I’m really good friends with.”

Philip says that there are 130 different martial arts styles, including two Tae Kwon-Dos. Both kinds vary in technique and are even spelled differently: traditional Tae Kwon-Do and sport Taekwondo, which is what is seen in the Olympics.

“UNI Tae Kwon-Do Club is the only traditional Tae Kwon-Do school in the state of Iowa, everything else is sport Taekwondo,” he said.

The Olympic-style Taekwondo requires no discipline and even the uniforms are different. Traditional Tae Kwon-Do does not focus on competition and utilizes 24 different forms, as opposed to Olympic Taekwondo, which is practiced primarily for competition and utilizes only four forms.

Traditional Tae Kwon-Do was started 2,500 years ago

by Buddhist monks traveling the countryside and spreading religion. Sometimes, the monks would be robbed in their travels, so they devel-

UNI travels to Iowa City to compete in the Musco Twilight MAT MEYER Sports Writer

The University of Northern Iowa track and field team traveled to Iowa City, Iowa, on Saturday to compete in the Musco Twilight, hosted by the University of Iowa Hawkeyes. The Panthers set a new school record at the competition and stood out in several events.

Senior Jill Lageschulte set a new school record in the 3,000-meter steeple chase that she herself set earlier in the season. Her time of 10 minutes, 44.44 seconds was enough to win the event by just under six seconds and pass her old record by more than 18 seconds.

UNI stood at the top of the leader board in the men’s and women’s pole vault. Seniors Sam Kranz and Daniel Gooris took the top two spots for the men and senior Jenna Wexter won on the women’s side. Kranz and Gooris both tied in the event with a vault of 16 feet, 6.75 inches, but Kranz was given first place and Gooris second. The women’s side of the event ended in a four-way tie for first place with Wexter among them. Her jump of 11 feet, 11.75 inches was enough to assure her a spot at the top of the leader board and she was given the first place title.

Senior Michaela Brungardt won first place in the 400meter dash with a time of 55.09 seconds. Her time now ranks fifth among the UNI all-time leaders. UNI junior Sam Cameron was able to take second in the event with a time of 55.25 seconds.

Olimpia Nowak was able to win both hurdle events in dramatic fashion. She took first place in the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 13.82 seconds and won the 400meter hurdles with a time of 59.25 seconds. Nowak is now the second woman in UNI history to run the 400-meter hurdles in less than one minute.

The women’s 4x400 meter team came up just shy of winning the event. Runners Brungardt, Nowak, Paige Knodle and Cameron completed a season-best time of three minutes, 43.69 seconds for second place in the event.

The Panthers will travel to Des Moines, Iowa, to compete in the Drake Relays from April 25-28.

UNI senior pitcher Jaye Hutcheson (12) won her 13th game of the season on Saturday. Hutcheson pitched seven innings, allowing three earned runs on seven hits and four walks. Hutcheson also struck out seven batters in the Panthers’ 7-6 victory.

Panthers take 2 out of 3 games from Missouri State JAKE BEMIS Sports Writer

The University of Northern Iowa softball team looked to rebound this weekend after suffering their first loss in Missouri Valley Conference play last weekend. The Panthers faced Missouri State University for a three-game series in Cedar Falls. After a strong start, winning two games on Saturday, the Panthers lost game three on Sunday.

In game one of the series, Jamie Fisher went to the circle for UNI. Fisher pitched tremendously, striking out 10 batters and allowing just two hits in nine innings. The Panthers (33-12, 17-2 MVC) needed extra innings, but a ninth inning rally sparked by a Gina Brown walk-off grand slam was enough to defeat MSU 5-1. Offensively, UNI had only four hits, two coming off the bat of Brown.

Game two of the series was the sec-

ond game of a doubleheader on Saturday.

Jaye Hutcheson started for the Panthers, winning her 13th game of the season.

UNI defeated MSU 7-6 despite recording three errors. Hutcheson struck out seven batters and walked four in the seven innings of work she pitched.

UNI got on the board first in the third inning. With runners on first and second base, Courtney Dunker hit a < See SOFTBALL, page 9

JAKE’S TAKE

Great sports traditions JAKE BEMIS Sports Columnist

One of my favorite things about being a sports fan is that it’s different every day.

No two games in any sport are exactly alike. Sports will always bring you back for more. Sports will always bring you hope for a positive change. While change can be a great thing, it can also be a terrible thing. At one time (many years ago) the Chicago Cubs were the greatest team in baseball. Now, well, we all know that story.

So when we face these terrible changes in sports, it’s always nice to have those

great traditions. For the University of Northern Iowa, a new tradition has recently risen. “The Interlude Dance” has become a nationwide phenomenon that many people look forward to seeing at Panther sporting events. This tradition is still young, so I have decided to take a look at my favorite, older traditions in sports.

Baseball: One of the oldest sports in America, baseball has been given the title of “America’s Pastime.” There’s no better feeling than heading to the ballpark on a beautiful summer day to see a great < See TRADITIONS, page 9

ball game. Since these games can last upwards of three hours, sometimes people need to get up and stretch. The “seventh-inning stretch” has become one of the greatest traditions in all of sports.

In the middle of the seventh inning, fans stand up to sing a rendition of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.” Being a Cubs fan, this has become one of my favorite reasons to visit Wrigley Field every season.

Hockey: Since we are in the middle of the National Hockey League playoffs, I thought it’d be necessary to bring up one of hockey’s most fun traditions. Every year, if your favorite team makes the playoffs, it becomes necessary to grow a playoff beard. You better shave the day before the playoffs start, because once they do, your shaving days are over. Many fans believe the superstition of growing a playoff beard can lead their favorite team to a Stanley Cup. If they shave

before their team is eliminated from the playoffs, their team will fall short of winning the title. Beware – the playoffs can last over a month, so these beards can get very thick.

Football: While many football teams, especially in college, have an in-game tradition, there’s one National Football League tradition that has risen to the top over the past decade. This tradition is, in my own words, “Super Bowl Day.” Just one day a year, all fans of football spend the day feasting on food in preparation to the big game.

For those who don’t care for football, there are many things to look forward to on “Super Bowl Day.” Not only does it give them a chance to watch the new phenomenon, the Puppy Bowl, but it gives these fans a chance to catch all the brand new commercials that air during the big game.

New and old, traditions are what make sports so fun to be a part of. While changes are inevitable in sports, traditions may just be what keeps sports fans coming back for more.

home run to put the Panthers up 3-0. After scoring another run in the bottom of the fourth inning, Hutcheson gave up MSU’s first run in the top of the fifth. MSU would go on to take a 5-4 lead heading into the bottom of the sixth inning.

In the bottom of the sixth, Brown came through in the clutch again with an RBI single to put the Panthers up 6-5. Brown later scored on a wild pitch to put UNI up 7-5.

Missouri State scored one run in the top of the seventh, but Hutcheson held on to give the Panthers a 7-6 victory.

On Sunday, the two teams met for a third and final time. Fisher toed the rubber once

again for the Panthers. While she pitched well, lasting eight innings and allowing just one run, the UNI offense came up short. UNI fell to MSU 1-0 in an eight inning game.

The Panthers recorded their one and only hit in the bottom of the first inning on a Hannah Borschel single. UNI had a runner on second base in the bottom of the sixth and seventh innings, but failed to deliver a gamewinning hit.

“It’s just the way the game goes,” said UNI head coach Ryan Jacobs after Sunday’s loss.

“You play as hard as you can and we play the way we practice every day. We did that for three games (this weekend).”

UNI returns to action on Wednesday to face off with Bradley University in Cedar Falls.
