The numbers are finally in.

The University of Northern Iowa’s official enrollment for the fall reached 12,159 students, an increase of 359 students in comparison to the university’s previous projection. However, the number is a decrease of 114 students in comparison to fall 2012 enrollment, according to the Iowa Board of Regents, at a meeting on Wednesday.

UNI President William Ruud said the increase in students will help with the fiscal deficit caused by lower enrollment for the semester and he said, “we’re very confident 2013-14 is going to be a good year budget wise.”

The University of Iowa also saw a decrease of 433 students in comparison to last year, reaching a total of 31,065 students for the fall.

Iowa State University saw record enrollment once again this semester, reaching 33,241 students.

Funding for operation and capital requests were also approved at the Regents meet-

ing. In the operation appropriation request, an additional $19.6 million was requested to allow a tuition freeze for a second year in a row, “the first time since 1975 that would have occurred,” said Board of Regents President Bruce Rastetter.

A special $10 million recurring allocation was also requested for UNI for “fiscal stabilization.” Ruud said the recurring $10 million would

be a base budget amount that “will allow us to have little more confidence and stability moving forward with plans, and continue to help with enrollment.”

In the approved 5-year capital plan, $3 million dollars is allocated for renovations for the Schindler Education Center. College of Education Dean Dwight Watson said < See BOR, page 3

Across the University of Northern Iowa campus, the phrase “UNI I Am…” is hard to miss. Seen from Maucker Union, to the Strayer-Wood Theatre, UNI I Am is a four-yearold marketing phrase that’s used both on and off campus, said Kim Brislawn of University Relations.

Now however, the phrase has run its course.

According to Brislawn the life of a marketing campaign usually lasts about three years. Though she doesn’t know what the new “slogan” will be, she knows UNI I Am is done.

“About six months into my role here, I started to receive a lot of feedback about how the I Am campaign wasn’t as flexible as the campus community would like,” said Brislawn.

Students on campus have various feelings about the phrase.

“I like it because other schools don’t have it,” said Shanna Waller, junior business administration management major.

“Nobody really understands it if the ‘UNI I Am’ is just by itself,” said senior communication studies major Erika Bandilla.

“

DINING

Silver-Where? Missing utensils cost dining centers $9 thousand RACHEL BALDUS

Over the course of a school year, utensils in the Rialto Dining Center and the Piazza Dining Center slowly diminish and disappear out of sight.

Theft, accidents and wear and tear are all contributing factors to this, according to Carol Fletcher, assistant director of residential dining.

Between the two dining centers, it takes about $9,000 each year to make the neces-

sary replacements, Fletcher said.

“It seems like incidents come in spurts,” Fletcher said, regarding the frequency of silverware problems.

Fletcher knows accidents happen, and she related the dining centers to a typical family kitchen. She said at home, a piece may get lost or thrown away occasionally, and it is the same in the dining centers, only magnified.

As of now, Fletcher does not think silverware disap-

pearance is a big problem.

“We have a budget for our silverware and if we go over the budget, we go to the plastic because we don’t have the budget to buy the silverware,” Fletcher said.

Since the dining centers are non-profit, Fletcher said students are paying for the silverware replacement each year.

“All the money that we make from meal plans go back to buying the food, for maintenance, the equipment and

things like that, as well as go into our student employment,” said Fletcher. She said this shows that students who are part of these silverware incidents are just harming the future.

As a former employee at the dish room in the Rialto, Sam Manzanares knows accidents happen. After learning about students stealing silverware and the amount of silverware that goes missing she said, < See SILVERWARE, page 2

Amy Bowler is joinng the UNI business school as an associate professor of accounting.

United States, according to a press release.

Born and raised in Tallahassee, Fla., Bowler said she was a “late bloomer” since she did not start college until her children were in middle school. When Bowler moved to attend college, her husband Bruce took care of their five children and has been beside Bowler every step of the way.

When Bowler was offered the position at UNI, Bruce was entirely supportive.

“He moved without hesitation and I love him for that,” said Bowler. “He gave up his job to come here.”

Bowler pursued her bachelor’s degree at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical

University, her master’s at Florida State University and her Ph.D. at Morgan State University.

“Dr. Bowler had multiple successful job interviews and she had the opportunity to move into very good schools,” said Dina El-Mahdy, one of Bowler’s professors during her Ph.D. at Morgan State University. “She was impressed by the environment at UNI and I was glad she made the choice to join UNI. I was confident that she would land into a great university because of her expertise and impressive résumé.” < See BOWLER page 3

When University of Northern Iowa accounting department head Marty Wartick approached Cathalene Bowler about a job opportunity at UNI, Bowler told Wartick that “she was wasting her time.” Wartick saw a potential in Bowler, that Bowler didn’t see in herself. “(Wartick) saw something in me, but I don’t know what,” said Bowler, new assistant professor of accounting in UNI’s College of Business Administration.

“After reading her résumé (at a conference for new Ph.D.s in accounting), I suspected she might be interested in UNI because of her passion for teaching,” said Wartick. “Once I met her, I knew that her concern for student learning and outgoing personality would make her a good fit for UNI.” Now, Bowler is joining the UNI business school team as an associate professor in accounting.

HRB will meet and talk to people involved in the UNI community, such as the admissions team and college recruiters. HRB will also hold two faculty focus groups, meet with current and prospective students , parents, alumni, the cabinet and other leaders on campus.

“As we work with HRB, our first goal is to develop a new recruitment marketing campaign that really targets our perspective students and parents and communicates what makes UNI different and unique from the other institutions,” said Brislawn. “We are really trying to make sure it is a conclusive process and that we hear from all of the constituencies across campus and the community about what makes UNI unique.”

“(Students) should buy plastic silverware if they want it that bad.”

Unlike other universities, Fletcher said the University of Northern Iowa has not resorted to banning backpacks in the dining centers. The use of return areas in the residence halls was implemented in the past to give students the opportunity to return what they may have accidentally taken.

Fletcher said that if it gets to be a problem, though, no backpacks is an option.

“It’s certainly a direction we can go if we get to that point,” said Fletcher. “We don’t want to make our meal plans so costly that people can’t afford to have them. The more you take, the more it harms you, so be conscious of that and help us keep our price down. We would love that and I think all the students coming to UNI would love that.”

Students press feds to get tough on sexual assault RENEE SCHOFF

McClatchy Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON— Activists have been pressuring the Department of Education this summer to punish colleges and universities that don’t comply with the law that prohibits sexual violence on campus.

Claiming that the federal government has been too lenient, students and others have collected more than 170,000 signatures on a petition, rallied outside the department’s headquarters and met with officials, including Education Secretary Arne Duncan.

Meanwhile, a growing number of students have used their own research skills and social media support networks to file federal complaints against their schools.

“The core of the problem is that colleges are seeing rape reports as a PR problem rather than as an issue of helping their students,” said Wagatwe Wanjuki, a member of ED Act Now, the coalition that organized the petition drive.

The E d u c at i o n Department has the power to levy sanctions, the petition said, but instead concludes investigations with voluntary resolution agreements in which schools promise to do better in the future.

“This strategy of all carrot and no stick may be wellmeaning,” the petition added, “but it is ineffective, allowing universities to avoid their legal responsibilities at the cost of student safety and academic opportunity.”

Meanwhile, this month a pair of current and former students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was involved in launching two websites to help other students navigate the complaint process: endrapeoncampus.org and knowyourIX.org.

The petition calls on the Education Department to levy sanctions against colleges and universities that don’t comply with Title IX; the Clery Act, which requires schools to report campus crimes; and other relevant laws.

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is the landmark civil rights legislation that bans sex discrimination in education, including sexual violence.

The law requires schools to “take immediate action” to eliminate sexual harassment or sexual violence, “prevent its recurrence, and address its effects,” according to website of the Education

Department’s Office for Civil Rights.

A statement issued after department officials met with the activists in July said, “While proud of our accomplishments to help prevent and address sexual violence, our conviction is that there is always more that can and should be done. We remain open to feedback.”

Responding to questions by email, the office defended its record, noting that since 2009 it has “pro-actively initiated” 16 reviews of possible cases of sexual violence and harassment and has resolved 94 percent of all the cases it receives inside of 180 days.

“In these investigations, we are not just looking for paper compliance,” the civil rights office wrote. “We strive to develop timely, but comprehensive and effective remedies to create systemic changes on campus.”

The department issued a guidance document in 2011 that spelled out how schools should handle allegations and the steps they should take to prevent new cases.

Ada Meloy, general counsel with the American Council on Education, which represents presidents of colleges and universities, said that schools have paid “a lot of attention” to them, adding that the issues “can be very difficult on a campus because of the need to be careful and fair to both the accuser and the accused.”

Annie E. Clark, a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and Andrea Pino, a senior at the school, were among five women who filed a complaint against the uni-

versity in January over its handling and reporting of sexual assaults.

Clark said that both she and Pino “had awful rape stories, but what was even worse was when we came forward and our university either didn’t believe us or mistreated us.”

Pino said universities should treat rape as a crime, not as misconduct.

“It shouldn’t be something people cover up with their pretty brochures and fancy policies,” she said.

In response to their Title IX complaint, the university said that it had revamped its policies to conform to the 2011 federal guidelines.

In May, the university created a task force with broad campus representation to improve its system for adjudicating student complaints against other students. The task force has been working this summer to rewrite the policy.

The complaint from Clark, Pino and others remains under investigation, one of eight recently filed by students against other schools, with more expected soon, Clark said. Those schools include Dartmouth College; Swarthmore College; Occidental College; the University of California, Berkeley; and the University of Southern California.

“What we’re seeing is 18-, 19-, 20-year-olds for the first time taking the law into their own hands,” Clark said. “History shows that the Department of Education has a lot of power to withhold federal funding or impose sanctions, and they weren’t doing any of them.”

the $3 million is a necessary allocation to begin planning for renovations.

“We need a 21st century facility to prepare 21st century students,” Watson said.

The Schindler Education Center has not seen renovations since its inception in 1972, according to Watson.

Renovations in Schindler would include remodeling classrooms for enhanced technology use and smaller classroom sizes.

Last summer, however, Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad vetoed the original request of $1.5 million for Schindler and other university buildings, saying, “Until strategic plans and sustainable financing are secure, it is not appropriate to spend taxpayer money designing and planning the project,” according to the WaterlooCedar Falls Courier.

However, Watson hopes Branstad will take a look another look at the proposal this year and consider approving the funds for the renovations.

“By having the renovation as opposed to new construction, we feel that this is more cost effective and it should be more palatable to the Governor,” Watson said.

The Iowa legislature and the governor will consider both the operating and capital requests from the BOR this upcoming legislative session.

During a campus visit, Bowler said she fell in love with how the faculty made her feel at home.

After applying, Bowler said her only thought was, “Lord, let them pick me.”

Now, two weeks into classes, Bowler said she is still trying to master where everything is on campus but she is really impressed with “how smart the UNI students are.” She said that her students read before coming to class, whereas teaching at other schools it was “like pulling teeth to get them to read their textbooks.”

Coming from a business background herself, she plans to become a part of the Accounting Club because “she wants to support the students.”

And Bowler’s advice to current UNI business majors? Do the homework and assignments and get to know the faculty, as they are here to help students achieve their goals.

“Strive to achieve your goals, to get that dream job, wherever it may be,” said Bowler.

Be a part of the community Speak out for others and serve as an ally COREY COOLING

Image by: ThinkStock

Opinion Columnist

Since high school, I’ve considered myself an ally for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals. From engaging in occasional social media debates and cheering at the drag show to volunteering in campaigns, I’ve made LGBT issues a priority.

By all outward appearances, I fit in with a growing number of Americans who support full equality for LGBT individuals. In the LGBT community, this seemingly qualifies people like me as a straight ally.

Within a social movement, the term allies is used to describe people from a position of privilege (such as heterosexuals) who ally themselves with an oppressed group (LGBT individuals). Classic examples of allies in other movements are white Americans marching alongside African-Americans during the civil rights movement.

Allies are critical to social movements because they provide a voice

and perspective that stands independent of their personal lives. By volunteering for something that they have no stake in, a powerful statement is made to others in the dominant group.

However, an ally is more than someone expressing support for a cause by updating their social media. An ally works within their dominant group to change social attitudes and conceptions. The way to do this is to form personal connections with those who have prejudices and have a conversation with them. What good would marriage equality be if same-sex couples still faced sneers and slurs when they walked down the street?

It is easy and tempting for allies to work safely within the confines of their social movement. However, the frontiers of a social movement are advanced through the work done with others outside the movement.

Reaching out to others is similar

to the internal reflection process.

An opportunity may present itself when you witness somebody make a prejudiced comment or commit an oppressive act. Rather than going after the person, remember the distinction between the person and their ideas. An effective ally seeks to create dialogue in which you and the person making the comment can examine the source of that feeling.

There is a group on campus that specializes in teaching these strategies. The Campus Coalition Builders are committed to building an inclusive campus community that everyone wants to be a part of.

They host workshops throughout the year that integrate personal stories from participants to illustrate prejudice and how it manifests itself in our community.

I participated in the workshop last spring and it dramatically altered my perception of prejudice, how it’s propagated and how I can

work to reduce prejudice in myself and those around me.

An ally is willing and eager to reach and understand others, and through conversation both parties can learn to place their ideas in context.

This may require a large helping of humility. In no way should allies confuse themselves for heroes saving people from hateful ideas. A self-righteous approach only serves to appear arrogant. It can raise defensive feelings in others and further reinforce their ideas. Instead of taking the moral high ground, allies seek to foster constructive dialogue.

The work of an effective ally is an exercise in altruism. You’ll never get a shiny gold “Ally” plaque to hang on the wall. It is a humble commitment to the larger community by building and growing transformative relationships with others.

Free college for the people CHRISTOPHER DANIEL daniecab @uni.edu

Congress is fighting again.

About you. Specifically, about your education and how it is paid. The options are to double interest rates on government-subsidized loans and cut Pell Grants, extend the current rate and make less drastic cuts to grants, increase grants, expand loan limits, lower interest rates or cap tuition. Since these options all receive little support, one may as well go wild and offer the solution that appears to have the least future: tuition-free public higher education.

Two- and four-year public colleges used to serve as private goods, but they are now public goods the government has a responsibility to uphold.

Society benefits from strong universities that churn out an educated populace. A more informed populace with broader minds makes for a citizenry better able to judge society’s course and formulate solutions to its problems.

Science, technology, the arts and business come from quality higher education. Wealth, prestige, culture and the standard of living increases due to it as well.

Per the U.S Census Bureau’s Survey of Median Annual Earnings by Education Level for 2012, a high school diploma nets an average $28,659 annually and a bachelor’s degree nets an average of $49,648 annually. Americans are realizing this benefit of higher education, as there has been a 70 percent increase in full-time students since

1967, according to the U.S. Department of Education.

Bob Samuels, president of the University of California American Federation of Teachers, argues we can offer free public tuition and drastically reduce government expenditure in his article “Making All Public Higher Education Free.”

State and local colleges took in $59.9 billion from net tuition in 2012, according to the U.S. Department of Education. Samuels notes that nonprofit education took in $8.75 billion of that from Pell Grants and $1.6 billion from the GI Bill, totaling $10.35 billion.

Samuels also said that the federal government paid $32.6 billion in educationrelated tax benefits in fiscal year 2013.

“

We say we value college education. We say it’s necessary for our future.

It is time we acknowledge it as a public good.

Christopher Daniel Opinion Columnist

”

So if the $10.35 billion that went toward nonprofit education and the $32.6 billion the government paid in tax benefits are both subtracted from the $59.9 billion state and local colleges took in in net tuition, the total for going tuition free in public higher education would be $16.95 billion in new money.

Compare this to the $20 billion per year given in tax exemptions to 12 Fortune

500 Companies or to the $3.2 trillion dollar wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Consider what fraction $16.95 billion is of the $3.8 trillion requested for 2013’s federal budget.

No student aid and no college tax breaks may sound frightening, but the removal of these assumes free tuition at public colleges, and only public colleges.

For those who can gain admittance through test scores, grades, essays and recommendations, quality public college education could be free.

Consider the expendi-

tures mentioned above.

Controversial as they are, that spending was granted based on the argument that it was for the public good in business and defense, respectively.

A rapidly upskilling working world demands more educated employees, and so we pay for higher education by taking out loans. And now, when the total student loan debt exceeds $1 trillion with an average of $25,000 per student, we sit on a $20 billion increase in the cost of federal loans.

We say we value college education. We say it’s necessary for our future. It is time

we acknowledge it as a public good.

Currently, we are not free to risk new businesses or to work in socially valuable nonprofit careers. Quality of life is diminished as we feel unable to pursue our innermost goals and our economy suffers as we cannot afford to put new money into it.

So this proposal, immodest though it may be, deserves a greater hearing. Even if this goal is not achieved, it may bring us to propose better solutions to the affordability of higher education, which otherwise will graduate to be the great crisis of our future.

HEALTH

Recognizing hunger: speaker addresses how to be more in tune with your body FARIHA AFZAL

Staff Writer

The University of Northern Iowa recently brought in awardwinning dietician Evelyn Tribole to answer a question we all face: how do we really know if we are feeling hungry? Tribole gave the lecture “Make Peace with Food and Your Body — Rediscover the Pleasures of Eating” Sept. 10 in Lang Hall.

“Hosting Evelyn Tribole is a reflection of the investment UNI has in the health of its community,” said Joan Thompson, health educator in UNI’s Wellness and Recreation Services. “Tribole’s message is one that helps to create a healthy relationship with food, which contributes to a healthy and happy life.”

Tribole’s aim was to get rid of society’s way of thinking about dieting and to introduce the audi-

ence to intuitive thinking, which involves looking for and identifying our body’s natural signals of hunger and food preferences and acting on them.

“Every emotional feeling has its own physical sensation and so there is a lot that can happen when you connect to your body,” said Tribole in her lecture. “When someone is dieting they are not connecting with their body; they are living in their head.”

Tribole has co-authored the book “Intuitive Eating” and she also runs a nutrition counseling practice in California.

“I thought it was great to get the knowledge out to the public, because obviously not all of them get to see dietitians on an individual basis, so (Tribole) was able to reach more people this way to get the message out,” said Alisa Christoffel, a registered dietician who attended the

page 6

lecture.

Marie Stigliani of Cedar Falls was one of 630 people in attendance.

“One of my daughters has an eating disorder, so ever since that happened I have been really interested in nutrition health,” said Stigliani.

Thompson said she thought the event was a success based on the number of people who showed up.

“I think Evelyn Tribole had a great message of becoming more in tune with our bodies, and just the number of people that were here tonight reflects the need for the information about how to balance out the information, about how to make it more personal to our need,” said Thompson.

Tribole was also ecstatic to see so many people in the audience.

“It was a nice energy from the group of people too,” said Tribole.

College students are known for running on ramen noodles and energy drinks, but this kind of diet may be more harmful than anyone initially thought. On Sept. 9, University of Northern Iowa students and staff viewed “Food Matters,” a film which takes a comprehensive look at modern American perceptions of drug and food preparation.

The Reaching for Higher Ground program showed the film in the Center for Multicultural Education to about 15 attendees. After the showing, a discussion about the movie’s themes was held by professor Michael Blackwell, director for the Center of Multicultural Education, and professor Thomas Kessler, social sciences bibliographer.

“I was pleased with the event,” said Kessler. “One of the things that I like about this format is that it provides the opportunity to bring together a diverse group of people ranging from undergraduate and graduate students to faculty members to members of our local community. We got to hear a number of those voices and I think that that enriches the conversation, so I was happy that we had that range tonight.”

Blackwell said the Reaching for Higher Ground program started as a way to gather people with different perspectives on challenging issues and let them talk about those issues in a constructive manner and learn to be accepting of others’ opinions.

“The program is used to emphasize that we live in a pluralistic society and that people come at things from different angles and perspectives, but we can all live together in healthy community,” said Blackwell.

Diversity and differing opinions were encouraged and well received during the discussion.

“I think it was a good discussion because people certainly had different points of view,” said Blackwell. “Some were definitely more cynical, some were just a shrugging of the shoulders and others were just, ‘Well, what can we do? It’s so overwhelming … ’ I think that the film shows that there are certain aspects that go into discussions of food and how it’s important to try to bring all of those dimensions together to bring about some positive change.” < See FILM, page 7

Freshmen poised to play a large role in 2013-14 for Panthers COLE BAIR

Sports Writer

Start your countdown. It’s 42 days until the University of Northern Iowa men’s basketball team will be back in the McLeod Center. On Oct. 25, UNI coach Ben Jacobson’s team, which is filled with new faces, will take on Bemidji State University in an exhibition.

With five freshmen, two transfers and the highly anticipated Wes Washpun now eligible after sitting a year due to his transfer from the University of Tennessee, there is plenty of excitement surrounding this year’s team.

Team practices don’t start until Sept. 28, but assistant coach Erik Crawford has already been pleased with what he’s seen from the team, especially from the five freshmen players.

“To be honest, they looked really good. They’re pretty far along,” Crawford said.

The ability of the freshmen to come in and compete from the first practice has made for a competitive environment coach’s thrive for.

“The guys get along real well. Very competitive practices,” said Crawford. “It’s good bringing in this many new faces.

It’s just a different dynamic in practice.”

Robert Knar, Bennett Koch, Jeremy Morgan, Klint Carlson and Ted Friedman make up the five freshmen Jacobson recruited. So far the coaches said they

graduate programs present so students can learn skills they need to be accepted into those programs.

Despite a common misconception, the Career Fair isn’t just meant for students to find a job.

“The student that walks in the fair and thinks ‘I’m gonna get hired at the fair’ usually walks away disappointed because the fair isn’t about getting hired,” said Nuese. “The fair is about building networks.

If you go in with the right mentality, you’ll always have a good fair.”

Nuese emphasized the Career Fair provides opportuni-

have been beyond pleased with the efforts they’ve been getting from the group. While it’s likely that a couple freshmen will redshirt, most likely Klint Carlson and Bennett Koch, it is also likely that a couple will have a sizeable impact on this year’s team.

Jeremy Morgan, an eagerly awaited recruit from Iowa City West High School, came to UNI boasting two consecutive state championships and a 52-0 record his junior and senior years. Morgan will undoubtedly be one of the freshmen counted on to have an immediate impact, according to Crawford.

“Jeremy for his size and length does a great job guarding the ball and with helpside.

He got a lot of steals in practice. He’s got the length to con-

test shots. He should be a good defender for us,” Crawford said.

If a freshman wants to see the floor in Jacobson’s system, the key is simple: play good defense. However, Morgan’s abilities aren’t limited to the defensive end of the floor. “(Jeremy) shot the 3-pointer really well this summer. His first step is very quick. Eventually he’s going to meet some of the physical play once we get into the conference schedule, so I think once he gets adjusted to the physical play he will really grow as an offensive player,” Crawford said. “His potential is limitless offensively because he can shoot it, he’s athletic, he can dribble and he has a good mid-range game. I think for him it’s going to be adjusting to how physical the games are.”

ties for students in a variety of majors.

“A term we always hear is ‘the Career Fair is only for business majors.’ How I always counter that is by telling them that the vast majority of the students will end up working in a business,” said Nuese. “When I asked my employers what they seek, major was always ranked as one of the bottom things.”

Nuese also communicates with businesses on what traits they valued the most, and communication skills and problem solving rank among the top two.

Along with assisting students with networking, programs like Live Like A Student helps students manage their money during their college

experience.

The Live Like A Student Program is a series of non-credit three-week courses offered throughout the semester. The courses explore the concepts of budgeting, credit cards, student loans and identity protection.

During the course, students don’t just receive information from professors, but from peers as well.

“Our staff tries to do very little of the actual instruction in the class because research has shown that learning it on a peer to peer level is just as, if not more, effective,” said Tim Bakula, associate director of the Office of Student Financial Aid. Students can register or learn more about the course online on UNI’s financial aid homepage.

Students also enjoyed the film and the issues it brought to the forefront of the discussion.

“I thought it was very informative,” said Dina Plum, graduate social work major. “They obviously focused heavily on certain aspects, but I’m glad they tried to touch multiple ideas. We kind of get stuck on one thing when really it’s a holistic change, and I think that’s important to remember in anything we’re trying to do or change.”

“Food Matters” was the first movie in the Reaching for Higher Ground film series this year. All of the films can be found in Rod Library and they will be shown throughout the Another freshman that could see sizeable minutes this year is Ankeny, Iowa, native Ted Friedman. At 6-feet-9-inches and 250 pounds, Friedman will be counted upon to fill minutes lost by the departure of Jake Koch and Austin Pehl. The defensive ability of the freshman, much like Morgan’s, is the catalyst for him seeing substantial minutes in his first season as a Panther.

“Ted works. He works like no other down there to guard.

He’s strong and moves his feet really well. That was the thing during the recruiting process we liked about him the most, was just how hard he played defensively. For him he comes ready to play and competes

semester. “(‘Food Matters’) had a fair amount of focus on nutritional and medical issues, although I think if you really dig into it, you can find a lot of social implications within the topic of that film,” said Kessler. “As we get deeper into the film series, we’ll be looking at some very challenging issues related to food issues.”

And for the attendees, Kessler left some food for thought by using a quote from Tracie McMillan’s book “The American Way of Eating.”

“The American way of eating is defined not by plenty, but by the simultaneous, contradictory, relentless presence of scarce nutrition in its midst,” Kessler said.

defensively,” Crawford said.

Friedman may not be displaying a one-dimensional game this season. The freshman has the ability to shoot the midrange jump shot and score on the block. His hustle and work ethic on defense could also translate into points.

One thing is certain, Crawford said he and his fellow coaches are having a lot of fun putting in their work with all the new players and cannot wait to get team practices underway.

“The practices should be great. Seeing how it all falls together, watching teams do that, is really enjoyable as a coach,” Crawford said.

OPINION

New city and new team for transfer student NICK ALVARADO

Sports Columnist

A girl in a light blue-andwhite checkered dress once tapped her ruby red slippers together three times and said this phrase to get back to Kansas: There’s no place like home.

As an out-of-state transfer student, clicking my sneakers together and teleporting back to San Antonio is an enticing thought at times. It’s a convenient little bubble that offers few surprises. Home is comfortable and familiar.

Going to school back there would’ve been the safe thing to do, but there’s a certain allure about flying the coop and moving on to greener (and cooler) pastures. But when moving from the Southwest to the Midwest, culture shock is unavoidable.

It may be different than San Antonio, but Cedar Falls has a welcoming presence.

Even though I occasionally get some awkward or funny

stares when using the word “y’all,” the people are genuine and are willing to help me out.

The absence of car sirens

CAITIE PETERSON/Northern Iowan

and barking dogs at night is a definite upgrade too. I was admittedly caught off guard by the fact that everyone here refers to soda as “pop,” but

I’m sure I’ll get used to that eventually.

While living in a nice town is definitely important, the university itself is the deciding factor for any transfer student. Whether people are transferring from Hawkeye Community College in Waterloo or from universities overseas like the many international students studying abroad at our campus, the University of Northern Iowa has found a way to draw all of us in.

When I visited UNI in May, I couldn’t help but be enamored of the beauty of the campus and how much the faculty wanted us to succeed.

They had a great pitch, and like a good car salesman, they knew how to bring it home.

By the time I was on my flight back to Texas, there was no doubt in my mind that UNI was the right choice for me.

Cedar Falls is now my second home — my home away from home, if you prefer. I’ve met fantastic people of an

assortment of races, religions and backgrounds. It’s the experience I’d been dreaming of while grinding away at community college back in San Antonio. I could’ve gotten a wonderful education in Texas because it’s home to dozens of respected universities, but I was looking for more than just academics; I was looking for an experience.

This is about getting out of that little bubble and seeing what I can do with my life.

There will be adversity and I’ll be faced with challenges I’ve never encountered before, but that’s the beauty of the ride.

This is not only true for me, but for every transfer student you meet, so make life easier for us whenever possible. Show us a good place to eat off campus. Take us to one of the better barber shops in town. Most of all, let us know that just because we’re not in Kansas anymore, it doesn’t mean we’re on this journey alone.
