Students can change their cellphone line into a “HopeLine” through Verizon’s HopeLine Campaign to become a “HopeLION.” HopeLine is a campaign started by Verizon to help victims of domestic violence. The community can donate old or unused cellphones to help provide victims with a way to contact a loved one or friend for support and help in case of a domestic violence incident. Verizon also said that the HopeLine campaign helps to fund organizations nationwide and protect the environment while also helping domestic violence victims and survivors. HopeLine has been brought to the university by the Office of Student Conduct and Student Outreach and Advocacy Representatives to spread the effort to help domestic violence victims and survivors. “October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month,” said assistant director
of the Office of Student Conduct Antoinette Alack. “S.O.A.R. saw a need to promote the campaign on campus to encourage and empower students to help aid in this national epidemic with the ‘Be A HopeLION’ domestic violence awareness initiative.” To donate a phone to HopeLine, students must erase any data from the phone and disconnect the phone’s service with their wireless provider. Students must also remove any storage cards and SIM cards, power off the phone and place their wireless phone from any service provider, along with the battery, charger and any accessories in a plastic bag and drop it off in the Student Conduct HopeLine bin. “Make sure to purge all apps, contact information and other personal information from the phones before dropping them off in the Office of Student Conduct, SU 1305,” said Alack. “By donating a phone, students can empower victims and become an active part of the solution.” Domestic violence is a national issue, and to bring the issue close to home, Alack
shared her own experience with domestic violence. “I speak from experience,” said Alack, “During my childhood, I witnessed my mother limited and isolated from her siblings and outside family. I never witnessed him hit her, but I did witness financial, emotional and verbal abuse. About 10 years ago, I gave her one of my old phones. She kept that phone on her at all times, and I saw how it actually gave her a newly owed freedom and sense of safety. My father is deceased, but during that time I afforded my mother with a ‘HopeLine.’” Alack hopes that students will be a productive part in helping to assist domestic violence victims by helping the Office of Student Conduct pass the number of phones donated last year. “Last year we collected 20 [phones] and would like to exceed that goal,” said Alack.

Grab your dancing shoes, put on your Halloween costume a bit early and get ready for a Harmony Social. On Thursday, October 22 from 7:30 to 11:30 p.m. the 2nd Annual Halloween Harmony Social will take place in the Pottle Music Building Band Room. The event will be hosted by Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia with Sigma Alpha Iota’s Mu Rho Chapter. Though this is the 2nd Annual Social, Phi Mu Alpha renamed the event for clarity purposes. “In October 2014, we created this event and everyone had a good time, so now we’re aiming to bring it back every October,” said alumnus Cody Watts. “Calling the event a ‘ball’ mistakenly inferred it was formal, so we switched it to ‘social’ to make the name more appropriate.” The goal of the evening is to
bring together students as well as the diverse organizations found on the campus. “This is an open event where everyone can coexist and have fun,” said junior graphic design major Gregory Griffith. “I’m hoping that people who aren’t in organizations do come so they can get a chance to meet the organizations and get their own image of who they are versus what they read on a flyer or something.” Throughout the evening, multiple contests will take place including a dance competition, best singles costume and best couples costume. Learning from a flaw of last year, this year’s costume contest for both couples and singles will be based on a crowd vote. “The costume contests were big hits, and we are bringing those back,” said senior general studies major Devin Barnes. “We did it kind of weird last semester when one of them was crowd vote, and that was the couples contest.
Weather Tuesday H 85 L 53
The singles contest went to buying tickets, and that flopped so we are bringing it to a crowd vote only. We will have prizes and crowd vote by a decimal reader.” Along with the dance and costume competitions, refreshments will be offered while supplies last and music by KSLU with senior English major Katherine Wall DJ’ing for the night. Outside of a night of fun, the host hopes the social not only gives them a chance to show the campus who they are and what they can do, but they hope other organizations will seek them in the future. “Not everyone even knows we really exist,” said Barnes. “I’m walking around all the time and people are like, ‘Oh Phi Mu, you can’t be in that. That’s a sorority.’ I’m like, ‘There is another letter.’ We are ready to show who we are on the campus and expose ourselves to the community where we can help out. We have
20 guys that are disposable and willing to do a lot, and we are willing to provide anything we really can.” The event director from the first “ball” will make an appearance, striving to keep his connection with the university. “I’m an alumni now, just graduated in May 2015,” said Watts. “I was the event director sinfonia put together last October, the 2014 Halloween Harmony Ball. I’ve graduated, but I’ve continued maintaining a relationship with both sinfonia and SLU in general. I’m not directing this year’s Halloween event, but they’ve asked me to ‘host’ it again, so I’ll be on the mic throughout the night. It’ll be fun.” Costumes are encouraged but not required. The event is 15 dollars for singles tickets and 20 dollars for couples. Payment for the event will take place at the door, and more information for the Halloween Harmony Social can be found on Facebook.

HC court and freshman senators elected BY MEGAN MCCORMICK Staff Reporter
With emotions high and excitement even higher, students eagerly waited to hear the announcement of newly elected Homecoming Court members and Student Government Association Freshman Senators. After campaigning and voting Tuesday through Thursday, results were given on Thursday, September 24 in the Student Union Breezeway. First to be recognized were the two new SGA Freshman Senators, Ali LeBlanc and Margueritte “Maggie” Sauter. Next, SGA Assistant Director Kyle Gallagher revealed the 7 maids and 7 dukes representing the 2015 Homecoming Court. The maids include seniors Jamie Ban, Allison Etzel, SiArah McCray and Jasmine Wilson; juniors Ashley Nelson and Randi St. Pierre and sophomore Christina Ferrando. Homecoming Court dukes are seniors DJ Cannon, Tony Miller, Beau Moore, Tyrell Norman and Reid Shorter; and sophomores DeQuaz
Humphries and Davon Mitchell. As students were waiting to hear their name called, some were nervous and others remained calm. “I felt at ease, honestly, because I was going to be okay with the outcome, no matter what,” said Humphries. “I knew it was only my sophomore year, and that if I didn’t make it, that there would still be other opportunities.” Now on court, the dukes and maids are enthusiastic to have this once in a lifetime experience. “Having the opportunity to represent Southeastern on the court means so much to me,” said Nelson. “I am from the area so I have grown up my whole life around Southeastern’s campus. It has always been very dear to my heart, and I am really looking forward to experiencing the university in a new way.” The court has new experiences to look forward to throughout the week. “I am looking forward to getting to represent my school on the Homecoming Court,” said Nelson. “I am excited to see Homecoming Week from
a new perspective. I am also looking forward to getting the chance to meet President Crain.” Humphries is also eager to participate in Homecoming activities. “I am looking forward to actually participating in Homecoming festivities this year,” said Humphries. “Last year, I didn’t participate in many activities at all because I was very new to the college scene, but I know this year will be different.” As the court members are beginning to embark on this new journey, each reflects on their own most memorable moment from their college experience thus far. “My favorite memory from Southeastern was experiencing my first Homecoming Week in 2013,” said Nelson. “I made so many new friends in different organizations, and it gave me more opportunities to get involved around campus. That week, I developed a new love for the campus, the community and the student body.” The new Homecoming royalty will be crowned on Saturday during halftime of the football game.

Homecoming made possible thanks to sponsors BY TOBY EVERETT Staff Reporter
Homecoming is a time full of events giving some a reason to come back to the university they call home. Homecoming 2015 will take place from October 12 to 17 while also marking the university’s 90th anniversary. For many, the week of Homecoming is a time of fun but none of the events would be possible without the people and departments who help sponsor them. Activities like Gumbo YaYa and other Homecoming traditions happen with the help of sponsors, such as Student Government Association and the Alumni Association, which is the overseeing department of Homecoming. “The Alumni Association actually originates and executes Homecoming for the university,” said the director of the Alumni
Association Kathy Pittman. “The student group, as you know, is headed by Student Government Association, and they do the student activities. Then we [Alumni Association] do all the community and alumni activities. We put these together with a huge committee of about 30 people that are representative of the alumni, community and students.” Pittman also did not forget to mention all the people who were instrumental in helping Homecoming come together this year. “In particular, we want to very much thank our sponsors,” said Pittman. “We have two sponsors of Homecoming, our FeLions, which is a lady’s alumni chapter group and also Alpha Sigma Tau who is celebrating their seventy-fifth anniversary. So, those are our two sponsors for Homecoming as well as Student

This past week the ladies of Alpha Omicron Pi unfortunately lost a beloved sister, Samantha Barker. She was a remarkably strong young woman who was called home after a long battle with lymphoma. Sam was a well-liked member all throughout the Greek community as well as on Southeastern’s campus where she served as an orientation leader. She leaves behind nothing but fond memories for all who knew her and has touched so many lives, even those who never had the chance to meet her. Samantha will be missed by many and always loved.

OCTOBER 13, 2015 PAGE 3
The trumpets will go silent for Donald Trump Heather Jewell Staff Reporter He is known by many names and phrases, some less flattering than others, like: The Don, The Donald, DJT, The Trumpster and a personal favorite of mine, Orange Man. Whatever you call him, I’m sure the image of 2016 Presidential Candidate Donald Trump came to mind after reading this first sentence. Famously quoted for saying, “Money was never a big motivation for me except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game.” When does the game give way to reality? I’ll try not to bore you by
listing every reason I am against this man becoming our next president, instead I’m going to focus on just two: his behaviors are contradictory to how a leader should act and his distasteful remarks towards women, including his own daughters. His actions show immaturity and callousness. Let’s begin with a Trump statement on Sunday, October 4, when he said that he would leave the race if his poll numbers began to plummet. When someone as passionate as Trump stated he would leave if his polls faltered, it showed that he is a man more concerned about saving face rather than leading the American people. He has painted the image of himself tucking back home and getting on with his life. He does not possess the qualities needed
to be a good, diplomatic leader with his “my way or the highway” attitude and will not be fruitful while dealing with foreign affairs either. The way he speaks about women is also troublesome to me. Many of Trump’s targets have been successful women, and his lack of professionalism and desire to be “transparent” often results in him being outright disrespectful. On April 16, Trump tweeted: “If Hillary Clinton can’t satisfy her husband, what makes her think she can satisfy America?” And let’s not forget the time he whined about Fox News’ Megyn Kelly calling him out on his behavior during the GOP debate on August 6. His response was to call a woman with a law degree a “bimbo” and shrug off the inquiry. Over 50 percent of Americans are
women; the question had relevance because whether or not he wants to acknowledge it, women are voting and we want to know why he thought we should give him our vote, despite his comments. The Trump Train may be going full speed ahead, but it is my belief that from this point on, his polls will decrease. The Republican Party is spread thin and is divided right now over the dozen or so hopefuls. When listening to so many people at once, the louder ones will be heard and Trump has made sure he was. Say Trump makes it to the primaries, once many of the other voices are silenced it will be likely many voters will then be able to listen to more than what he has to say. All those divided voters would stand behind his opponent and even some of his own voters could change sides. However, just as
likely as that is to happen, it could also be the other way around. Despite my disagreements with the things listed and not (like his pitch for a giant, giant wall along the Mexican border) the Trumptastrophe managed to appeal to me just once after an interview he had with CNN’s Chris Cuomo. During this interview he was asked about his thoughts on the murder of a news reporter and camera man at the end of August and stated: “This isn’t a gun problem, this is a mental problem. It’s not a question of the laws, it’s really the people.” I stand behind our second amendment one hundred percent and thanks to my father, can efficiently clean, load and yes, take aim and fire a gun all the while being aware of my surroundings and following safety rules. Growing up on a ranch I’ll
admit it was very unlikely we would be attacked by another person, however the snakes and coyotes surrounding our home didn’t feel the same reservations. I stand with Trump when he says that instead of trying to take away Americans’ guns, we should instead be devoting more time to identify and help those with mental illnesses or abnormalities. These people maintain the same dignity as anyone else and as such should be given the care they need. You wouldn’t try to give someone with an open wound Aloe Vera and mental illnesses should not be treated wrongly either. All in all, our 2016 election is shaping up to be one for the books. Thankfully though, if your choice candidate isn’t our next Prez, there is always Kanye West running in 2020 to look forward to.
Make exciting memories during Homecoming Week Megan McCormick Staff Reporter The week of October 11 is just another week for some students, for others it is the dreaded mid-term week, but for some, myself included, it is the best week of the fall semester; it’s Homecoming Week. Every year, organizations are paired together to compete in various activities throughout the week. This year, my organization, Phi Mu, is paired with the Kappa Sigma fraternity. Everyone pretends that competitions are simply just for fun and games, but what no one likes to admit is that it
is truly a week of strategy and points. Maybe that’s why I love it so much. For every competition your organization wins, the organization gets a respected amount of points. At the end of the week, during the big Homecoming game, the winners are announced. Like stated before, for some, this will be just be another pointless announcement; however, for others, this announcement declares who will be the 20152016 Homecoming Grand Champions, giving them all bragging rights until the following year. Even students not affiliated with an organization can go to the activities during Homecoming Week to have fun and meet new people. If interested in
what all the fuss is about, stop by Strawberry Stadium where people will be playing quick Minute to Win It competitions. Last year, competitors had to tape a Kleenex box to their backs and bounce until all the ping pong balls had fallen out. Some of the games may be silly, but if nothing else, you’ll get a good laugh at the people who hopelessly fail. After leaving class on Wednesday, grab a few friends and join in on all the excitement outside the Union along with free gumbo at Gumbo YaYa. If it’s not your forte, so be it, but at least you gave it a shot and got free food. In college, many of us find ourselves wrapped up in studying and working, allowing ourselves no time to just let loose and have fun. Yes, midterms are
important, and yes, you should study to prepare yourselves, but no one is stopping you from taking breaks to enjoy what college is all about. Coming from a student who prides herself on being involved on campus, it is worth it. I have networked and met so many new people just from joining clubs and organizations. I only have two and half years left at Southeastern, and I plan to make the most out of it. If you’re looking for a way to do the same, set aside the books and stop saying “I don’t fit in with those people” and enjoy this week. I challenge you to grab some classmates or neighbors in your dorm and head out to the Homecoming tailgate this Saturday. I promise it will be a memorable experience.

Follow your passion before entering the ‘real world’ Melissa Robertson Staff Reporter
Imagine graduating with honors, armed and ready to take on the “real world.” Next comes the relocation, resume tune-up and what feels like endless jobhunting. In the end, that dream career requires a bit more training than what you’ve got. That is my story. As I work towards my second degree, I know absorbing as much information as I can is more important than finishing in a rush. Believe me, I love a good shortcut. Pressing Ctrl + Z to undo on my computer is one of my best
friends. I almost took a shortcut towards my first degree as well. Having switched majors from fashion merchandising to general studies, I had the opportunity to graduate one semester ahead of schedule. It was a beautiful idea until I saw the bill for my summer classes. I’m glad I didn’t rush. I don’t think I would have explored my newfound love of writing had I been dead set on just breezing by. I definitely wouldn’t have taken martial arts here on campus with my best friends either, which would have left a bucket list item unfulfilled. Taking my time introduced me to experiences I would have ignored otherwise. It also equipped me to deal with tight circumstances both in school and out. After
changing majors, I was left with even slimmer pickings for job opportunities on nationwide career boards. For all those who make jokes about liberal arts majors, that’s not cool. In the back of my mind, I knew I wanted to work in animation; I just didn’t know where to look. The following year was spent in New York City, and it wasn’t easy. Thankfully, little pieces of my dream career puzzle started coming together, like learning about animation internships and the numerous lessons offered around the city to help further my craft. Treating NYC like my learning experience truly helped me survive. My bosses were like my teachers, my schedules were equally demanding and there was

a whole lot of walking. Tuition was paid in MetroCard fares, and moving back home was my graduation instead of my defeat. Sometimes, I wonder if life could have been easier had I stuck with fashion merchandising. If I stuck to the curriculum as planned, maybe I would have found meaningful employment in NYC. But, would I have been as appreciative of the entire college experience if it was that cut and dry? Until someone invents a way to travel between parallel dimensions, I can’t answer that question. I can say learning as much as I could in each seemingly disjointed moment did more for me than rushing into the future would, and I believe this animation degree will carry more worth because of it.

Correction-In volume 86, issue 7 printed on September 22, 2015 the opposing team and their mascot was mistakenly identified in the article “Home game embarrassment felt on the football field.” The Southeastern Lion football team played against The Florida Institute of Technology Panthers. Clarification-In the same article as above, it was unclear if the two runners on the football field were arrested. According to the University Police Department, the “two subjects were arrested after running across the football field, without permission, during the game and fleeing from officers thereafter.” The two subjects Mason Clouatre and Daniel St. Pierre were arrested for resisting an officer, criminal trespassing and disturbing peace by public intoxication.

Shattered Illusions By Jade Ngo Staff Reporter
Review Jean-Paul Sartre’s “No Exit” kicked off the Fall 2015 theater season with an untraditional portrayal of Hell for the audience. The production that took place in the Vonnie Borden Theatre was executed perfectly with the stage placement, unique translation of the play and outstanding performances. The stage was circular and placed in the middle of the theatre so the audience was given the opportunity to watch the play from around the entire theatre, making the production presented as a theatre-in-theround. The placement of the stage penetrated the imaginary fourth wall, an imaginary front-stage view that the audience sees the action of the play through. This allowed actors to face or turn in any direction. “No Exit” was originally written in 1945 during World War II. However, translator and director Dr. Anne-Liese Fox decided to change the setting of the play to the iconic 1970s. The 1970s setting was a great decision in regards to set and costumes. The stage featured shag-pile carpet, bold colored couches and a lava lamp that brought the audience back in time. Although the play seemed comic at times, the existentialist material was dark and thoughtprovoking. The cast did a superb job with giving the audience comic relief from the heavy content throughout “No Exit.” The production, to my delight, concluded with the bellhop saying, “You can now find your exit.”

Actors take on Hell By Alex Brainard Staff Reporter
Each semester students have a chance to take a role on stage and demonstrate their acting potential. Last week, The Vonnie Borden Theatre hosted a four night showing of “No Exit.” The production showcased from Tuesday October 6 through Friday October 9. Students Angela Griffitt played Inez, Justin Davis played Garcin, Shelby Elliot-Layman played Estelle and Larry Heard played Valet. “No Exit” is the story of three people, Joseph Garcin, Inez Serrano and Estelle Rigault who were sent to a Hell, in which they must cope with one another for eternity. Although “No Exit” was originally written in 1945 by Jean-Paul Sartre, it was the play’s director, Professor Anne-Liese Fox, who changed the play to fit modern times. Fox decided to place the timeline in the 1970s. “I found it really interesting that the director went with the idea of changing it to the 70s instead of doing it in the original time period, which was the late 40s,” said Victoria Parsons who was in charge of hair and makeup design. “That gave us a lot of inspiration to use interesting 70s hair and makeup designs that were really popular back then.” In addition to doing research on the makeup and hair design of the 70s to better prepare for the play, Parsons researched other aspects of that time period. “Not only do you have to look at makeup and hair from that time, but you look at architecture and buildings, you look at the culture and the life style of people,” said Parsons. The stage setting and performance gave students a variety of reactions to the play. “When I looked at them [the actors], I thought they were the character, not someone else,” said English graduate student Emily Klein. “I liked all the clues that went along all throughout [the play]. I liked the shapes they made with their body to suggest what was going on. They made good eye contact and looked at everyone. It was really nice with everything they did about all the structure of the play.” Students filled the theatre for each showing, leaving with an experience that will never be forgotten. “My favorite part of the play was everything,” said usher and house manager communication major Bruce Javery. “There was not one moment

Justin Davis as Garcin, Shelby Elliott-Layman as Estelle and Angela Griffit as Inez play three characters trapped in Hell (above). After Estelle tries to kill Inez, (below) Estelle expresses their predicament of how they are already dead and in Hell with no hopes of escape during the production of “No Exit.” that was without tension or high energy. They really dove into the characters they were cast as. It made for an experience they will never forget.” The actors also had their own experiences acting in the play. “This was my first play,” said Layman. “I didn’t know what to expect nor did I know what was going to happen. It’s been a big learning experience.” Layman enjoyed her part and really connected with her character. “Estelle is kind of like my type of character that I like,” said Layman. “That woman who is pretty full of herself and has done some messed up things in the past but still wants to think she’s right all the time.” While working together on the play the cast members built a friendship among one another. “We have an amazing cast,” said general studies major with a concentration in theatre Angela Griffitt. “I’ve never felt such a strong connection with a cast before. It’s amazing how that connection is really visible to the audience. Not only the cast, but also

Downtown gallery features student art By Kelli Meynard Staff Reporter
Student artwork can usually be found in the Contemporary Art Gallery on campus, but currently, students’ work can be found off campus. On October 2 at 5:00 p.m., the Hammond Regional Arts
Center hosted the opening of the first student show in nearly a decade. “This is our first time in about ten years that the Visual Arts Society has been here,” said president of the Visual Arts Society Anna Fernandez. “The club as a whole has shown at the HRAC before,

but we have been absent for the last decade and we’re really excited to be back here. This has been a great opportunity.” Due to the long absence of a student art show at the HRAC, some were skeptical of how the event would end up for turn out. “I’m really excited for this event,” said Fernandez. “I was initially a little afraid because it has been over a decade since we have been here. I was not informed of this event until the beginning of the semester, so it was a last minute rush for me and trying to get the
students motivated to show up here [HRAC]. The pieces we got were creative and a good representation of all the art departments.” HRAC Executive director Katherine Marquette bought two pieces of student art and thought the student show was a success. “I actually purchased two pieces from the myself,” said Marquette. “That’s the wonderful thing about having shows with students in them. They are not at the height of their career just yet so you can usually get some really great,
quality artwork at a really great price. It was a huge success. The turn out tonight was wonderful and we’re really pleased to see that and see everyone support these students.” Junior visual art and animation major Austin Cradic was unsure of initially being accepted to the HRAC but ended up having two pieces that made it in the show, helping further his future goals. “I was really nervous about getting stuff in and not knowing, even when I
submitted it being like, ‘Yeah, I’m just going to submit it, it’s not going to get in,’” said Cradic. “I got in. It’s pretty awesome. It’s the first show that I’ve actually gotten stuff into. It’s nice because students can put it on their résumé that they were able to get into a show that wasn’t just with the school, it’s an actual art gallery.” For more information about the Visual Arts Society, email southeasternvas@gmail. com or to learn more about the HRAC, visit the website hammondarts.org.
CAG highlights 11 master artists By Kaitlyn Johnson Staff Reporter
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might be growing impatient with a situation that seems to resist efforts to resolve it. But staying with it raises the odds that you’ll find a way to a successful resolution. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Travel and kinship are strong in the Bovine’s aspect this week. This would be a good time to combine the two and take a trip to see family members for a pre-holiday gettogether. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A colleague could make a request you’re not comfortable with. If so, say so. Better to disappoint someone by sticking with your principles than disappoint yourself if you don’t. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Moon Child’s ability to adapt to life’s ebbs and flows helps you deal with the changes that you might confront at work or at home, or both. Things settle down by the week’s end. LEO (July 23 to August 22) It’s a good week for Leos and Leonas to get some long-outstanding business matters resolved. Then go ahead and plan a fun-filled family getaway weekend with the mate and the cubs. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A possible workplace change seems promising. If you decide to look into it, try not to form an opinion on just a small part of the picture: Wait for the full image to develop. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A newcomer helps keep things moving. There might be some
bumpy moments along the way, but at least you’re heading in the right direction. You win praise for your choices. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You could be pleasantly surprised by how a decision about one thing opens up an unexpected new option. Also, assistance on a project could come from a surprising source. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) With more information to work with, you might now be able to start the process that could lead to a major change. Reserve the weekend for family and friends. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) This could be a good time to begin gathering information that will help you turn that long-held idea into something substantive. A personal matter might need extra attention. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) That new challenge might carry some surprises. But you should be able to handle them using what you already know. That new supporter should be there to lend assistance. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Someone might be trying to disguise his or her true motives. But the perceptive and perspicacious Pisces should have little or no problem finding the truth in all that foggy rhetoric. BORN THIS WEEK: You can always rely on your people skills to help you find solutions to problems others often give up on. (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

Artists from all over the country will be at Southeastern Louisiana University’s Contemporary Art Gallery for the “Fresh: New Master Artists Part 1” exhibit. It will be on display from October 15 to November 13. There will be a total of 11 artists featured in this exhibit, all of which have just received their Master of Fine Arts. “At this point in these artists’ careers, they’ve been through graduate school, so they can really push what they’re doing and not have to think about commercial galleries yet,” said Gallery Director Dale Newkirk. “So a lot of the work is more open, more expansive and not driven so much by the market place but by ideas and what people are thinking about right now

in art.” This display will give art lovers a wide variety to view. Works using materials such as glass, photography, painting, sculpture and video will be in the exhibit. There will also be an installation art piece, where the artist builds the art right into the gallery wall. To kick off the exhibit, the gallery will host a reception on its first night on display. The reception will be from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., food and beverages will be served and everyone is welcome. According to Newkirk, this event is “more of a way to show our students and the community examples of what new, cutting edge contemporary art is going on in the country.” Selected artists were recommended by the head of their committee or advisors in graduate school. Nearly half of the featured
artists will attend the opening night reception and two of them will be giving lectures. The artists include: Louisiana locals Patch Somerville and Jeffrey Stenborn from Tulane University, Naama Hadany, Jeffrey Prokash and Kyle Conor Nilan from the Art Institute of Chicago, Matthew Yaeger from Virginia Commonwealth University, Stoney Sasser from Illinois State University, Zac Weinberg from Ohio State University, Rebecca Ott from the Temple School of Art and Roberto Celis from the University of Texas at San Antonio. “This is our fanfare show that we’re doing for this season, said Newkirk.” “This is the biggest event of the year for the gallery. Bringing in 11 artists from all over the country, doing different types of work is complicated. So I hope students come out and enjoy the show.”

Lions Athletics leads the charge against cancer By Heather Jewell Staff Reporter
October is the month of Breast Cancer Awareness and the Lions and Lady Lions sports teams alike are standing behind multiple organizations to support and raise awareness of this deadly disease. Each sport will participate differently, Volleyball typically supports the Susan G. Komen Foundation. “We will hold Pink Weeks and design ribbons on sheets of paper,” said Coordinator of Student Marketing and Promotions, Lindsey Cramer. “We let people buy the ribbons for a dollar, then we link them together and string them up for a match.” Not every team will raise money, however, but will dedicate a game to raise awareness by wearing pink accents with their uniforms. “Soccer chose not to do a fundraiser, which is typically what a lot of teams like to do,” said Cramer. The recent Lions vs Lamar football game had also been a Pink Game. Even though the game was used to raise awareness instead of money, in the past football has worked with Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center and Raising Cane’s. Mary Bird Perkins has gone and will go to tailgates and offer information about Breast Cancer, how to perform mammograms and hand out pink things like cups or ribbons. “Cane’s will have two nights during October where all proceeds go to Mary Bird Perkins and we present them with a large check,” said Cramer.
When teams choose to donate or use a platform, the job of Student Marketing and Promotions is to assist them. According to Cramer, teams will sometimes get really big ideas, and they then have to tame it down and cultivate it. “Baseball wanted to do something really crazy last year and have pink fireworks,” said Cramer. “Instead, they just wore pink.” During a Southland Conference game series against McNeese, the Lions baseball team partnered with Raising Cane’s and Theta Phi Alpha to “Knock Cancer out of the Park.” During the double header, the sorority accepted donations to help pay for the costs of cancer treatment for Diamond Girl Paige Hickman, who was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma earlier in the year. During the game t-shirts were sold for her and Hickman threw the first pitch. They raised 5,000 dollars for her. Recently, the university made a contribution to Zach’s Lidz for Kidz, an organization founded by young Zach Morgan and his mother. “We had players sign caps and presented them to him,” said Cramer. “We encourage any type of involvement or awareness and always try to look for other things to support.” When teams are prepping, they will order pink socks, headbands or wrist bands. The women’s basketball team has an entire uniform in pink, and they also have boxing gloves. “Teams will do their own thing,” said Cramer. “We’re just trying to expand ideas and make it better.”
One way they have expanded is through the Lion Up Loyalty App. Cramer established and created the app; through it, she can set up a perimeter
that allows users to check in and get points. She can also set up something where, when students using the device step into a certain zone, it will send them
a message. Cramer would like to put one in Cane’s for the two games they work

Lady Lions Soccer wins in Pink Game, 3-2
By Jonathan Rhodes Staff Reporter
The Lady Lions soccer team defeated the Lamar University Lady Cardinals 3-2 this past Friday at Strawberry Stadium. This victory makes their record 4-2 in conference play and 9-3-1 in the overall season. The Lady Lions have yet to lose a game at home this season and are in the hunt to finish on top in the Southland Conference. The Lady Lions went into this game as the team with the highest goals per game average and the team that has scored the most points this season in the Southland Conference according
to southland.org. The first goal of the game came early for the high scoring Lady Lions as junior forward Bri Singh scored 1:45 into the first half with the assist coming from senior forward Kayla Vera. Senior defender Maddie Allen missed a shot that hit the crossbar at the 4:40 mark of the first half. Senior midfielder Gisenia Utreras scored the second goal of the half for the Lady Lions at the 13:37 mark in the half making the score 2-0. The goal was assisted by Singh. At the 38:34 mark in the first half, the Lady Lions scored their third goal, making the score 3-0
in just the first half. Utreras scored off of a redirected assist from junior defender Lauren Lorentz and Singh. This was Utreras’ 10th goal of the season and she leads the team in goals this season. In the second half, the Lady Cardinals began to make a comeback by scoring their first goal of the game at the 62:02 mark by freshman forward Jordan Mulnix assisted by senior forward Mari Olastuen making the score 3-1. At the 86:58 mark, the Lady Cardinals would score again. Mulnix scored her second goal of the night assisted by senior
defender and midfielder Megan Campbell bringing the score to 3-2. The Lady Lions found themselves in a fight to hold on to the lead late in the second half. Following the team’s victory, Head Coach Blake Hornbuckle rated the team’s performance. “I think we had a good first half,” said Hornbuckle. “The second half we encountered some challenges.” Coach Hornbuckle pointed to the play of freshman midfielder Elizabeth McMurray as being a huge reason for the team’s victory. “I think Liz McMurray had a good game,” said Hornbuckle.

Tennis takes home another win against NSU Lady Demons By Morgan Ledet Staff Reporter
Lady Lion’s tennis dominated the Northwestern State University Lady Demon Invite with senior Renee Villarreal and sophomore Dalina Dahlmans leading the team to a successful weekend in Natchitoches. Villarreal and Dahlmans won the top two singles matches, and they also teamed up to win the doubles match. Villarreal is undefeated in singles matches this season so far. “My thought process [for the tournament] was going to make the best out of this weekend,” said Dahlmans. “My goal was to win the tournament in my draw in singles and also in doubles. It was a huge goal for me because I knew I had to give everything on court to achieve my goal. And I’m also glad to bring home two victories to Southeastern.” Junior Margaux Kaltenbacher also won her singles match and went undefeated in the number six draw. Sophomores Lucia Bustamante and Cecilia Mercier made it to the consolation finals of the number three and
four draws. This duo also won the consolation bracket of the number two doubles draw. “Overall the team did really well this weekend,” said Dahlmans. “Every player on the team finished up with winning records. I’m glad with how we played, and I liked the attitude of every single player on the team. We have a really good team spirit, and we show this off and on court.” Villarreal, in the number one singles bracket, started with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Lamar’s Anna Spengler. She also beat McNeese State’s Giovanna Fioretti, 6-2, 0-6, and 10-7 and finished the tournament with a victory over Lamar’s Katya Lapayeva, 6-1, 6-1. Dahlmans started the tournament with beating Stephen F. Austin’s Lauren Hidalgo Smith, 3-6, 7-5, and 10-7. She also won a straight-set against Lamar’s Luciana Di Laura, 6-1, 7-6 in the semifinals and in the finals taking the win over Nicholls’ Clemence Krug, 6-1, 6-4. Kaltenbacher beat Morgan Fremin from Louisiana-Lafayette 6-3, 6-2. She finished her bracket with a win over NWLA’s Barbora Kollarova, 1-6, 6-3 and 11-9.
Dahlmans and Villarreal beat the Ladyjack duo on Friday and won 6-3 on Saturday over McNeese State’s Vivien Borberly and Hannah Brett. This duo closed the weekend out with a 6-4 victory over Mississippi State University’s Fioretti and Sarah Jurakova. “All the players did great. I am so proud of how tight this group is. They support each other, and they believe in each other; that’s why everyone was successful this weekend,” said Head Coach Jason Hayes. “The main thing for us going into next weekend is we want to continue to get a little stronger and a little smarter with each match we play.” The Lady Lions will continue their season in the West Florida Invitational on October 16 to 17 in Pensacola, Florida. “Our goal this year is to be in a position to win another championship. We all know how difficult a challenge that will be considering the depth of talent in our conference, but we believe in each other. We know that if we work together, we can be successful,” said Hayes. For more information, including a full schedule, please visit lionsports. net.

Volleyball falls short at UNO By Morgan Ledet Staff Reporter
The Lady Lion’s Volleyball team (8-11, 2-3 Southland) was defeated by the University of New Orleans Privateers (11-9, 2-3 Southland) in three sets, 25-22, 25-22 and 25-23. “We knew UNO was much improved from previous season and that we would have to play our best to be successful against them,” said Head Coach Jim Smoot. This past weekend, the Lady Lions traveled to New Orleans on Saturday October 10 to play in the Human Performance Center. This was the first time New Orleans beat the Lady Lions since joining the Southland Conference. “Going into the game, I really did not know what to expect since UNO has a very different team than they have had in the past,” said junior outside hitter Parrie Hartley. “But after watching film on them and trying to see what their tendencies were and looking for their weaknesses, I felt confident in the match.” The Lion’s offense was led by Hartley with 12 kills and Landry Bullock with 11 kills. The offense also had help from Haley Baker who had 19 assists and Mikayla Shippy who had 17 assists. Veronica Turk also contributed five of the seven blocks throughout the match. Monica Ramon led the team with 13 digs. “I think our team did decent against UNO,” said Hartley. “The outcome did not go our way and we made a few little mistakes that we could have avoided and those added up in the end, but we showed some fight towards the end of the match.” The team had a total of 21 errors, two aces and also a total of 41 assists. “As a whole our team did not perform as expected,” said Smoot. “We seemed to lack the fight that was required. Our blocking, serving and serve receive must become more consistent if we want to make the conference tournament. Our goal is still to qualify for the tournament and then secure the bid into the NCAA’s.” The Lady Lion’s come home to host Stephen F. Austin on Thursday at 7:00 p.m. in the Dig Pink Match and Northwestern State for Homecoming on Saturday at 2:00 p.m. Visit lionsports.net for more information and upcoming games.

Sports Information
LAKE CHARLES – No. 13/22 McNeese State took an early 14-0 lead that it would never relinquish on the way to a 21-7 victory over No. 17/20 Southeastern Louisiana in Southland Conference football action Saturday night at Cowboy Stadium. The loss for the Lions (3-2, 2-1 Southland) snapped an 11-game winning streak for SLU against in-state Southland Conference rivals. Unbeaten MSU (5-0, 4-0 SLC) is the first league foe from Louisiana to beat Southeastern since Northwestern State defeated SLU on Oct. 15, 2011. McNeese State won the game with its defense, which held Southeastern to 239 yards and eight first downs. It was the first time the Lions had been held to a single-digit point total since 2012. Junior quarterback D’Shaie Landor made some plays for the Lions, throwing for 166 yards on 11-of-29 passing. Junior wide receiver William French was Landor’s top target with three catches for 71 yards. Senior running back Xavier Roberson led SLU with 43 yards rushing and the 17th rushing touchdown of his career. After a bad start to the first quarter, the Lion defense was able to hold McNeese State scoreless in the second half. Senior defensive back Jordan Batiste led SLU with 11 tackles and a sack, while sophomore Ryan Sigers had a sack of his own. Senior defensive back JQ Sandolph also recorded a sack for the Lions. Senior quarterback Daniel Sams engineered the McNeese offensive attack, throwing for 137 yards on 13-of-30 passing and rushing for 75 yards. Sophomore running back Ryan Ross led MSU with 149 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries McNeese took the early lead on the opening drive of the game. A 57-yard strike from Sams to sophomore Kent Shelby highlighted a 10play, 86-yard scoring march. Sams scampered in from three yards out to give the Cowboys a 7-0 lead with 9:57 left in the opening quarter. After a Lion three-and-out, McNeese State doubled its lead. Ross shook off a tackle by senior JQ Sandolph and raced down the right sideline for a 58-yard touchdown run to give the Cowboys a 14-0 lead with 5:00 left in the first quarter. The Lions dodged a bullet after a turnover in its ensuing drive. Senior Gabe Hammer stripped SLU senior running back Kody Sutton to give MSU the ball at the Lion 42-yard line. However, the Lion defense stiffened and a breakup by Sigers forced the Cowboys to punt. After the teams traded empty possessions, Southeastern finally struck on its opening drive of the second quarter. Landor found French on a 54-yard catch and run down the left sideline to set up a one-yard score by run by Roberson that cut the MSU lead to 14-7 with 13:08 left in the opening half. After the defenses took over for the majority of the second quarter, McNeese State added to its lead in the final minutes of the half. Ross scooted in from four yards out to cap an eight-play, 69-yard drive and give MSU a 21-7 halftime lead. Both offenses were dominant in the third quarter, as neither offense
could get anything going. The only notable play was a fumble recovery by Sandolph late in the quarter. After SLU muffed a punt, McNeese State looked to put the game away. However, freshman kicker Trent Manuel hooked a 32-yard field goal to keep Southeastern within two scores with just under 10 minutes left. However, SLU could not take advantage of the miss and could only manage one first down before having to punt. Southeastern made one last charge, as Landor connected with senior Dylan Bossier on a couple of big gains to move the Lions into the Cowboy red zone. However, MSU senior linebacker Wallace Scott stripped Landor on a sack to end the Southeastern threat with just over four minutes left.

Athlete of the Week Maddie Kresevic: Lady Lions soccer By Karson Sharp Staff Reporter
Maddie Kresevic, a graduate of Solon High School, is a sophomore kinesiology major with a concentration in exercise science and a midfielder and forward for the Lady Lions soccer team. Joining the Lady Lions in 2014, Kresevic is a long way from her home state of Ohio. According to lionsports. net, she was an All-District and All-State athlete as well as a two-time conference performer. She was also the top women’s soccer scorer for her team in her last two years of high school. She has played in 33 games over the course of her career as a part of the Lady Lions team. It is easy
to see how Kresevic came to the attention of Southeastern, and why she is a major asset to the team. The Lion’s Roar: What are some things you enjoy doing in your free time? Maddie Kresevic: I like to watch Netflix and relax since we don’t get much free time as student athletes. Between meetings, practice, games and classes, we’re kept pretty busy. TLR: What is it like being a member of the soccer team? How does it feel? MK: It’s really a great thing. You meet a lot of new people, and it’s like being in a second family. It feels that way because I’m from Ohio, and my teammates are like a second family from Louisiana.
Southeastern will return home to host Stephen F. Austin for Homecoming on Saturday, Oct. 17, with kickoff set for 7 p.m. in Strawberry Stadium. The game will be televised on Fox College Sports and the Fox Sports Go App. In the Hammond area, fans can also access the game on WUPL (Charter Channel 16, DirecTV Channel 54). The contest can also be heard on KSLU-FM (90.9) and LionSports. net, as well as affiliates and Northshore Broadcasting stations Kajun 107.1 FM (WHMD) and The Highway 104.7 FM (WJSH). The first 300 students in attendance to the Homecoming game will receive free t-shirts courtesy of Southeastern Athletics Marketing and Promotions. At halftime, the 2015 Southeastern Homecoming King and Queen will be announced.
TLR: What are some goals of the soccer team this season? MK: Collectively and as a group, the goal is to win the conference and make it to the tournament. TLR: Now what are some goals for you personally when you will be on the field this season? MK: My goal is to prevent as many shut outs as possible and help my team towards the common goal. TLR: What do you miss most about home? MK: I mostly miss my mom’s home cooked meals, and I really miss the season of Fall. TLR: While you are playing on the soccer field, what do you think about? What is your motivation? MK: I’m mostly motivated by my teammates and by us being

Creatives join for interarts BY HEATHER JEWELL Staff Reporter
Long practices since before the summer will finally make fruition as “10: The Katrina Project” is performed. There will be three performances, two on Thursday, October 15 at 9:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m.; the other on Friday, October 16 at 7:30 p.m. all in the D. Vickers Vonnie Borden Theatre. The production is more than just a dance performance, it is infusing multiple arts, including music, acting and even vocal acting. Produced by the university’s dance program under the artistic direction of dance Instructor Skip Costa, it is the first of its kind. “Within this production, student performers, choreographers, musicians, poets and myself push the boundaries of dance/movement studies,” said Costa. “By fusing elements of choreography, live original composed music, sounds, spoken word, singing, acting, set design, video installation, props, costuming and the natural element of water we can achieve our dance/movement studies program goal of creating a true InterArts performance piece in which I feel not only unifies our Department of Fine and Performing Arts but gives life to a more progressive and realistic approach to how dance/movement studies is created in today’s world.” Speaking throughout the production is senior kinesiology major Lauren Larson. Larson believes Hurricane Katrina affected many people in not just New Orleans but across the state. “Ten years later, people are still coming together throughout Louisiana and other states as well,” said Larson. “This production really reflects that with the InterArts approach.” Throughout the performance, over 100 water jugs will be incorporated to symbolize “moments” like strength, barriers, emotional pain, stress, safety, cleansing of the soul, a heartbeat, the levee, struggle and hope, as well as its normal function as a container to hold actual water. The music for the performance was composed by multiple student musicians as well. One musician, senior English major Chance Phillips, had suffered from the storm and thus had many emotions to draw from when composing his piece. “When I was approached, I was very surprised,” said Phillips. “When I was writing the music I wanted it to reflect what had happened during the storm.” For junior music major Matt Hawkins, being a part of the show was a different experience than how he would usually play his cello. “I’m used to having music put in front of us or composing music on my own,” said Hawkins. “Coming in here we were working with and composing music for people who don’t really understand music the way we do, and it’s been extremely interesting because they’re using completely different languages than us and we have to translate it. Nothing like this has ever been done before.” All musicians, dancers and Larson spend time through the production on a massive structure that is eight feet in height and is 24 feet in length. The dancers and musicians are not separated but alongside one another. “It’s empowering up there,” said senior general studies dancer Joseph Matherne. “You’re up there with other dancers, but if you look over a little bit more, you see musicians. It’s really cool seeing them because sometimes when they’re playing, their eyes are closed, and they are in their own worlds also.” General admission is five dollars for the night showings and students have free admission at the 9:30 a.m. production only.

Dance lacks financial resources
Students passionately practice and perform despite current struggles BY MEGAN FERRANDO A&E Editor
While those who represent Southeastern, including both faculty and students, have been working to improve the school the past couple years through numerous expansions, improved facilities and new fees towards athletics, some programs are seeing no assistance towards their end. The dance program under the Department of Fine and Performing Arts are without a personal budget or studentassessed fee, resulting in limited or lack of mirrors, speakers, proper flooring to dance on and more. “The students work really hard and they really believe in the program that we do here,” said dance instructor Skip Costa. “They are getting quality education but there is a limit to what we can present and produce when there is no budget involved. It’s not that we want this abundance amount of money to work with, but there’s little necessities in order to produce quality work at a professional level that goes across the board with all the universities.” The dance program currently borrows speakers from a student and often uses things bought by Costa. Costumes for productions are typically found at home or at Goodwill. “I’m still going to buy stuff for this performance because I feel they need to do things as professionally as they can because when they leave here it is a professional world,” said Costa. According to dance professor Martie Fellom, they often have to readjust and change their plans for a production due to lack of money. Currently, if Fellom needs money for a production she will request it through the department head, but often receives far less than needed in regards to set, props and costumes.
“It saddens me. I know it’s a necessity with the department because of money, but if we had a certain amount of money then it could be visualized the way it was intended,” said Fellom. “That’s probably the most challenging thing because then you have to give up your vision. Any artist who is creating something, there’s a vision there and sometimes money is a big factor in that vision.” For the program’s upcoming performance, they are using a large set piece that was donated to them. This piece alone has opened the door in possibilities that they did not have before. Similar objects could increase future opportunities for the program and for students. “We have a set piece behind us and the only reason we got this was because another department heard us out,” said senior general studies major with a concentration in dance Joseph Matherne. “We are extremely thankful for the contribution of this piece. There are stunts that wouldn’t even be possible had this piece not been here, and that catapults us into the next semester. If we did have a budget, what else could we do? What other things could we provide for the university that is our home?” Other programs in the Department of Fine and Performing Arts currently receive student-assessed fees or student lab fees. According to Leonet, full-time students currently pay two dollars for theatre, one dollar and fifty cents for the art gallery, two dollars for cheerleading, twenty dollars for the parking garage, one hundred dollars for athletics and much more in fees towards various aspects or projects around campus. Most of these fees aside from athletics have been in place for a long time and were voted on by the student body at the time. “For the dance crowd to

get something like that, first off, all they would have to get their faculty to get that approved up through the chain,” said assistant vice president for Student Affairs Jim McHodgkins. The approval of a student fee would go through faculty, department head, dean, provost, Student Government Association, president, board and would finally be voted on by the student body. According to interim department head of Fine and Performing Arts Dale Newkirk, the dance program does not have their own budget due to their lack of lab fees. The department of Fine and Performing Arts has a general budget, but it is stretched in many different directions due to large and diverse aspects of the department, including music, visual arts and more. “Areas such as dance, and all music and visual arts funding for classroom supplies and studio needs comes from student lab fees,” said Newkirk. “Dance is a small area with few students compared to other areas in the department. However, the area is important and we are working to meet their needs. I have been helping the area this year by funding the dance production costs of shows currently under production. In this way the dance program, considering our resources, has been generously supported.” Fellom and Costa recently submitted paperwork for approval for a student lab fee, which if granted may offer some assistance. Although, the program is lacking in many necessary tools for dance, they are

According to both students and faculty, much of the renewed passion and growth in the dance program is due to Costa. “He is reaching their inner voice of creativity,” said Fellom. “He is bringing forth their excitement that hasn’t been here for a while. That’s why I think our numbers are increasing. They want to
study with him, and they want to have their own personal voice.” According to Fellom, one student is planning on transferring from the American College of Dance to Southeastern so that she can be a part of the dance program here and under Costa. According to numerous

What to look for in Homecoming

Homecoming week is here, bringing both old and new events to campus. This week will be spreading school spirit among students in anticipation for the upcoming football game against Stephen F. Austin. Starting off the week was the Homecoming Kick Off at the Student Union Quad on Monday, October 12.
By Jade Ngo Staff Reporter
Now that football season is in full swing, Homecoming week has found its way back to campus. Students can look forward to many fun festivities, both new and old. Last Sunday, organizations participated in a new activity called Campus Decorating. Campus Decorating was designed to inform students about the presence of Homecoming week. Student Government Association Homecoming Director Regan Cascio came up with the idea for Campus Decorating because in the past some students were not aware it was Homecoming week. “Campus Decorating is a new event this year,” said Cascio. “The thought is that organizations will help decorate the campus for Homecoming week. This idea came from the lack of school spirit on Southeastern’s campus during previous Homecoming weeks. Unless you are involved on campus, you could go through your week and not even know it was Homecoming. We are hoping to change that this year.” The Homecoming Kick Off at the Student Union Quad from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. started Homecoming week on Monday, October 12. Students gathered to participate in activities including music, free snowballs and T-shirts. At 7:00 p.m., the Southeastern Family Reunion National Pan-Hellenic Council Role Reversal took place at the Student Union War Memorial Park. The entertainment for the night included stepping, strolling and a competition between the sororities and fraternities of the council. Today, October 12 the Phi Kappa Phi Homecoming Quiz Bowl will take place in the

Student Union Ballroom. This event will test the knowledge of students and faculty in a trivia competition. Some of the questions will focus on the history of the University because of its 90th anniversary this year. At 7:30 p.m., Minute to Win It will take place at Strawberry Stadium. This event consists of random, but exciting games for organizations to compete in. The Campus Activities Board will host Gumbo YaYa on Wednesday, October 14 outside of the Student Union Mall from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Students can enjoy free gumbo and games set up by various organizations. The Ready, Set, Glow 5k glow run, which is a new race on campus, will take place at North Oak Park at 6:30 p.m. Cascio believes students should participate in events to enhance their college experience. “I am a firm believer in that you should not graduate from college with just the memories of studying and taking tests,” said Cascio. “You should have the memories of going to your first Lip Sync or competing in Ready, Set, Glow 5k. These are all events that I love and I think every other student should give these events a chance as well.” On Thursday, October 15 at 6:45 p.m., the traditional bonfire and SGA block party will take place at Cook Field. The Roar Like a Lion Yell Competition is a new addition to the bonfire festivities this year. Cascio hopes Roar Like a Lion Yell Competition will become a tradition to continue on campus for years to come. “One of our new events this year is the Roar Like a Lion Yell Competition,” said Cascio. “This is an event that is very popular at other universities and is traditionally called Yell Like Hell. The Roar Like a Lion Yell competition consists of one to two minute chants, which
Along with the Alumnus of the Year, the alumnus gives an award for one who is younger and has gone above and beyond. “We also give a Young Alumnus Award to an individual that is 35 years old or younger that has done something outstanding, and this year’s young man is Mathew Magneson,” said Pittman. “The colleges also give a number of other awards and we do too.” For more information on events held during Homecoming week, visit the Southeastern website.
teams will perform for points during the Bonfire/Pep Rally on Thursday. These chants are supposed to embody school spirit. In years past, our Bonfire/Pep Rally hasn’t been the event we have wanted it to be. We are hoping that this event gets people to come out and fall in love with Southeastern. There is truly so much Southeastern has to offer, and my position as Homecoming Director is to really facilitate an event that will make memories for all.” The Roar Like a Lion Yell Competition will be followed by Lip Sync at 8:00 p.m. Organizations from around campus will compete in a dance competition based on their Homecoming sub-theme. Students can come enjoy a night of Broadway based performances. Homecoming Chair Matthew Reed of Delta Tau Delta enjoys Lip Sync the most out of all of the Homecoming events that occur throughout the week. “My favorite event has to be Lip Sync because
it brings all of the organizations together for a day to enjoy each other, to socialize and to enjoy all of the festivities as a whole,” said Reed. “It’s also rewarding to me and to other organizations as well to see members in their organizations compete in the Lip Sync competition. You finally get to see all of the hard work paying off on the stage as you cheer those students on.” A week of fun and school spirit all leads up to Saturday. The Homecoming parade, where organizations get to display their hard work on their floats, is at 3:00 p.m. The week will come to a close at 7:00 p.m. when the Southeastern Lions take on Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks at the Strawberry Stadium. The Homecoming king and queen will be crowned at half-time, and the Homecoming winner will be announced in the third quarter.

For many years, traveling between classes pertaining to healthcare related courses was made difficult for both students and teachers due to facilities’ locations. However, Director of Facility Planning Kenneth Howe and his team are striving to make facilities for students more accessible and easier to find. Howe provided details on what is in store for students by the end of September when Phase 3 of the War Memorial Student Union is scheduled for completion. “We’re actually finishing Phase 3 up in the next week or two,” said Howe. “They’re starting to move furniture in, which will be completed in the next couple of weeks. Shortly after that, we hope to start moving those occupants in.” According to Howe, they more than doubled the size of the union along with the three phases. The beneficial part of phase 3 is it will be a one stop shop for students. There will be more opportunities for Student Excellence, the Health Center, the Counseling Center and all Student Affairs along with Residential Dining and meeting rooms. Everything will be in the same location and more accessible for students to gain experience and advice.

As most people may know, the month of October has been designated as Breast Cancer Awareness Month throughout the country. The month of October also happens to be the month when Homecoming, along with many other events, usually occur every year. In knowing that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Dining Services, along with help from Hall Council, decided to host the upcoming event “Eat, Drink, Pink.” The event will take place during Homecoming week on Wednesday,
October 14 from 5 to 7 p.m. in the Mane Dish. When it came to deciding to hold this new event, Dining Services Marketing Coordinator Fallon Myers and her team wanted to give it a unique type of name that would attract students. “We wanted something different and, of course, since we are Dining Services, we wanted to incorporate food,” said Myers. “Actually one of my interns came up with the title ‘Eat, Drink, Pink’ just because that’s a popular slogan and, of course, since it’s breast cancer awareness, we chose ‘Pink”. Pink desserts like cupcakes and cake, and pink decorations will be featured throughout the Mane Dish,
along with a photo booth by Hall Council. Lipstick and paper will also be available to write the names of loved ones to ‘kiss away cancer.’ Lastly, the first 150 students that enter the event will be prized with small giveaways. According to Myers, those small prizes are to remain a secret until the event. Myers says the event will raise breast cancer awareness with the prize, the title “Eat, Drink, Pink” and the ‘kiss away cancer’ part of the event. “We will tell students to make sure that they get checked, bring awareness to it and to just remember family members or friends that we have lost to breast cancer,” said Myers. “It’s always

good to share and to encourage students that know people that are fighting that battle. The event is meant to bring awareness to breast cancer and is also meant to bring support. It’s a place where students can come and talk to other students about breast cancer and even get support for themselves, if they need it, or for family and friends.” According to Myers, students are also encouraged to wear pink to the event. “Eat, Drink, Pink” will be open to all of those who either use a meal plan, cub cash, cash, credit or debit.

This past weekend the annual Hammond Horror Festival welcomed in Halloween with a bang. Hammond Horror Fest was made up of three days of Halloween Horror and festivities, which took place around various locations of Hammond. Thursday night was the Freaky Film Night, where Halloween lovers came together to watch the classic 90s film “Casper.” Saturday night was the Macabre Masquerade Ball. Locals and Southeastern students gathered in the Hammond Regional Art Center to have a night of dancing and entertainment. The ball began at 7:00 p.m., but the fun really kicked off around 8:00 p.m. with the costume contest. Five designers created Louisiana legend inspired costumes to show off for judges at the ball. After the costume contest, came the La La Tribal Belly Dancers. The group of five dancers have participated in this event for four years and say that it keeps getting better and better. “I think it’s a really great event,” said Kaela Sanchez, a member of the dance group. “It’s certainly grown over the past five years. I think this is the fifth year. It has gotten bigger and bigger. Its fun.” The group does a mix of belly dancing and tribal inspired dance. Their piece for the Macabre Masquerade Ball began with the song Iko, a commonly known New Orleans Mardi Gras song. “We choreographed this as a troupe, the opening number was the song Iko, which was choreographed by Stephanie Fredrickson of Moon Horror,” said member of the La La Tribal Belly Dance, April Stovall. “The rest on the other two songs, we choreographed and we’ve been working on for about two months now.” After the La La Tribal Belly Dance performance, the disk jockey turned up the music for attendees to dance the rest of the night away. Ashton Sandberg, a Hammond local, and her husband attended the ball for the first time this year and said that the event was great

and they enjoyed getting dressed up. “We’re just hoping for some more ball room dancing music,” said Sandberg. Daphne Hebert, the co-chair of the festival, says that she always looks forward to the performances. “My favorite part is always the performances. La La Tribal does a great job for us every year. They’ve been with us since the beginning of the ball,” said Hebert. “And then the fashion show has evolved over the years. The first year it was just all comers would design a costume, put it on display and at this point, four years into it, its actually turned into a themed competition every year.” All of the proceeds for the Macabre Masquerade Ball went to Relay for Life, a well-known charity that raises money for those battling cancer. Saturday night was the 24-hour theatre show, which is produced by the Southeastern chapter of Alpha Psi Omega, a national theatre honor society. The theatre show tests the talent, creativity and quickness of actors, actresses and writers. Writers were sent a specific topic at 8:00 p.m. Friday night and were allowed to write scripts only until 3:00 a.m. Four hours later, the directors and actors of the teams came in to practice for their performance, which took place 8:00 p.m. Saturday night. “It definitely takes hard work and creativity. Everyone loves the pressure and creative outlet. The show is something the members of APO look forward to all year round,” said APO president, Emily Nodine. The Hammond Horror Fest raised money for Relay for Life by donating a portion of the proceeds. “Last year the Hammond Horror Fest collectively gave $600,” said Nodine. This local festival comes every year in October, in time for Halloween and Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Next year, catch a list of all the events by visiting the Hammond Horror Fest website.
season. “In the backline we need to be more focused,” said Allen. “We can’t fall asleep and late in the game we have to finish more.” The Lady Lions have two critical conference games next weekend on the road against Sam Houston State on Friday at 7:00 p.m. and Stephen F. Austin on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. Both wins are needed to stay in the hunt to make the Southland Conference tournament.

many came to Southeastern for dance because of Costa and his background. Many dance students expressed how much the program has strengthened them and positively changed their view of what dance can be. For some, it has helped with anxiety, for others it has taught them how to use expression through dance and open a new world to audience members. “I never did any contemporary dance until I got to college so this program has been massive for me,” said engineering technology major Forrest Duplantier. “It’s affected my life a lot. It’s helped out my anxiety a lot, it’s helped a lot of things in my life.” The dancers and instructors plan to continue on and grow with or without a future budget or student fee. “A lot of us don’t plan on stopping,” said Matherne. “We want to keep going. I want to open up a company and multiple other people want to do stuff with dance. This is not

will be front and center.” According to Howe, it has been six to seven years since they started the phases. From having the idea and working through the programming phrase along with design, development and construction documents to the actual construction, which has taken about two and a half years. One goal Howe is proud
to have accomplished in the construction process is how Phase 3 is now taking the students’ every day basic needs and re-locating them to one spot, as opposed to being spread out across campus in various locations. “It’s been a long process,” said Howe. “But we’re really excited to see it come to fruition.”
