t’s as if he was born with music flowing through his veins. With a heavy influence of music from his family, Caleb Mak, senior supply chain management major, has developed into a striving musician with a sound of his own. Mak is an emerging face in the world of music. He is set to graduate in December and will have the opportunity to continue the music success he’s experienced as a student. “I’ve been influenced by so much growing up because my dad was really into soul and country and random stuff,” Mak said. “The groups at my high school were all metal heads and rock music, and I was influenced by my best friends listening to hip-hop and rap. I just wanted to put that all in one.” Mak released his first album, “LOVE: Life of Virtuous Ecstasy,” nearly four years ago, and since then many major music labels have expressed interest in signing him. “That happened when I graduated high school and during my freshman year at A&M,” Mak said. “I was getting a lot of calls from Sony, Universal, Motown, Columbia and Epic — huge labels.” They even wanted to use Mak as the opening act for other well-known artists such as Chiddy Bang, Three 6 Mafia, Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean and Lupe Fiasco. Despite all of the interest for record deals

Special to The Battalion The Aggie Special Olympics Texas Volunteers will hold the Celebrity Flag Football Classic this Saturday at Stephen F. Austin Middle School to benefit the Texas A&M Unified Flag Football team on their journey to future competitions. As a student organization at Texas A&M, ASOTV focuses on empowering individuals with intellectual and physical disabilities to become more productive, physically fit and respected athletes in society through training and competition. The teams consist of A&M students and other volunteers in the community who train and play with the athletes. ASOTV president Ashley Stewart is anticipating the turnout Saturday will make this an annual event. With partners and sponsorships, they look forward to sustaining success in the chapter. “We hope to continue the event in the future and make the community more involved and proud,” Stewart said. “We have more unified sports in our organization and hope to expand community events for multiple sports.” ASOTV is teaming up with music
station Candy 95, as well as other respected affiliations in the community, to provide a fun filled day for Aggies, the athletes and community members. Activities will begin at 10 a.m. Saturday and continue into the afternoon. The flag football match will be held on the SFA middle school football field in Bryan with two fifteen-minute halves. The teams will be competing for the gold, silver and bronze prizes. Guest celebrity players include Candy 95 DJs Katy Dempsey and Frito, Michael Oder and Shel Winkley from KBTX, College Station Police Chief Jeff Capps, Bryan Police Chief Eric Buske, Pastor Caleb Schoeneck of Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church, Bryan Fire Chief Randy McGregor and College Station Fire Chief R. B. Alley. KBTX reporter, Shel Winkley, has made friendships with the teammates in their practices and is excited to be a part of the event, as the team is keen to showcase their talent. “The smile that lights up on their faces as they practice is contagious; that’s why I participate. Everyone should come out and experience this with me,” See Olympics on page 3

from music moguls, Mak held out on signing. “I wanted to develop myself musically,� Mak said. “Back then they wanted me to be a pop singer and I would’ve done anything. But now when I talk to people from Universal they say ‘We’ll give you all of the creative control.’� Mak also wanted to enjoy his time in college. “I was just getting into the college experience,� Mak said. “I didn’t want to quit it. All my friends were in college, and I wanted to get my education.� But now that Mak is graduating, he will have a chance to devote himself full time to making music. “I still have good contacts with everybody,� Mak said. “So if I get that kind of contract now I’ll know what to do. I’m a lot older, I know what’s in

the industry now.� If simply earning a college degree isn’t enough of an accomplishment, Mak will be leaving A&M with a 3.5 GPA. He discovered the secret to success in balancing school with making music. “There’s sometimes a clash between having to do musical stuff and then supply chain management,� Mak said. “They’re completely different. But if you’re really passionate about what you do then you’ll find time to do it.� Mak persevered through difficult workloads from school and music and wants to show people it’s possible to continue to do what they love, regardless of other responsibilities they have. “I really want to inspire people to do it because a lot of people quit doing music after high school,� Mak said. “They quit doing music because they get stressed. If you really love it and you’re not just doing it for money and fame, then you’re going to keep doing it. You’ll find a way to make it happen.� In order to inspire and restore faith in A&M’s musically inclined students, Mak brought an organization called “Grammy U� to campus. Grammy U, a subsidiary of the Grammy Awards, is for students who have dreams of working in the music industry. It gives them an outlet to meet and network with people in the music industry. “When you think of A&M you don’t think of it artistically at all,� Mak said. “There’s no art school here, there’s nothing like that. There are a lot of kids here who are musically inclined who don’t want to do country. I really wanted to help students here network with people in the music industry and Grammy U is an organization that actually lets you do that.� Students who have worked with Mak said he is making a difference in the music scene on campus.

Caleb Mak will graduate in December around the time of his show at the Grand Stafford Theater in Bryan.
“He can be really inspiring to people who are threatened by pursing a music career in school,� said Jacob Reese, sophomore food science major. “He shows that you can be very successful in school and very successful in music.� Jillian Harris, Class of 2011, worked with Mak in creating the Art, Music and Poetry Society at A&M. “He’s a hard worker and very talented at music,� Harris said. “He’s very inspirational, and he loves what he does. You can tell just in the way he presents himself.� Harris can also attest to the impact Mak has on the audience when he performs at shows. “When he plays shows it’s completely different from all these other artists because he loves the fans and he loves getting them involved,� Harris said. “He loves to see people energized by his music and
being moved by his music.� Mak tries to create his music for people to relate to and have fun listening to. The songs he’s created encompass a variety of sounds for many people to enjoy. “If you’re not into hiphop, he has an amazing voice,� Harris said. “He has acoustic music and he really hits a bunch of demographics, which is really cool too because a lot of artists stick with one genre. He hits so many different ones, which is interesting and marketable for him.� Mak said he was inspired by three artists who he tried to mold together to create his own sound — Daft Punk, Kanye West and John Mayer — but credits Texas A&M for making him into the person he is today. “This school definitely changes you,� Mak said. “I don’t think I would have got-
ten the sense of family from any other school. The students support other Aggies. I’ve gotten cheers at shows just on the sole fact that I’m an Aggie.� For those who have yet to attend one of Mak’s shows and for those who have already seen him perform and still have lyrics stuck in their heads, there is an opportunity to see Mak in his last performance as a student. Mak will be playing a show titled the “End of the World Party� at the Grand Stafford Theater in Bryan on Dec. 12 at 8 p.m. “It’s a free concert,� Mak said. “I’m not trying to make any money off of this. It’s just for the people that inspire me at this school and have been friends with me and have supported me. It’s going to be the best show I’ve ever had.�

almost two years for events similar to this one. “The Texas Tribune has become a new media outlet that is totally electronic-based,” Cook said. “And they dove deep into significant issues facing the state of Texas.” The Texas Tribune is a nonprofit digital news organization that works with policy, special news and events surrounding public policy in Texas. The symposium featured panel discussions of distinguished Texas leaders who talked about topics such as pathways to student success, the value of a college education, innovations in online learning and the legislative side of higher education. In the last session of the day, “Innovations in Online Learning,” Evan Smith, CEO and editor-in-chief of The Texas Tribune, picked the brains of leading educational figures in Texas concerning the role that technology is beginning to play in education — specifically through Massive Open Online Courses. “We now have it within our
power to give every student in Texas an elite caliber education,” said Steven Mintz, director of the Institute for Transformational Learning at the University of Texas at Austin. “And you can pay $0 for some programs.” Mintz and other panel members described the modern technology, which provides education to individuals who would otherwise remain uneducated. Smith said students who would likely use these programs are naturally tech-savvy. “Students come into classes almost with USB cords in their heads,” Smith said. Many of the issues addressed at the event overlap directly with matters involving A&M. “Having The Texas Tribune and their editor Evan Smith on campus says a lot about the role that Texas A&M has in shaping the higher education in Texas,” Cook said. “Texas A&M is obviously at the center of these issues.” The Texas legislature will soon take up similar conversations as the ones presented at the symposium. “I think that the most significant topic for us is to look at funding and to look at the partnership that exists between state appropriations, what students pay in fees and
philanthropic support,” Cook said. “It was a perfect timing to discuss all of these issues, because these are the same issues that the legislation will be addressing [in January].” Greater than the individual topics themselves, Texas’ task today is to address how the issues are tied together. “One thing people should realize is that there are many different pressures and forces that are impacting higher education today,” Cook said. “It’s not just about funding, access, technology but all of these conversations we addressed [at the symposium] packaged together as one.” Cook said it is important to look at how higher education can be a solution to difficulties that our state is facing right now, specifically to that of shifting demographics. “With the changing demographics, we as one of the state land grant universities have a responsibility to serve the citizens of Texas,” Cook said. “And that includes serving the changing demographics as well.” Karyssa Zavala, senior agricultural communications and journalism major, explained how the changes in demographics really hit home with her. “I am a Hispanic student, and
they spoke a lot about first-generation students,” Zavala said. “I’m not a first-generation student, but I am the first in my family to graduate from a four-year institution. After working with a congressman who represented South Texas, Zavala saw the significant rise in Hispanic demographics. “There has been a lot of discussion about that today,” Zavala said. “I found it really enlightening because it’s not really spoken of. It’s definitely an issue, especially in the education world.” Zavala also experienced the ups and downs of the University’s funding first hand, through her undergraduate experience with scholarships. “When I came [to A&M], I had a lot of scholarships. And now with the budget cuts, the financial aid has been detrimentally affected,” Zavala said. “[The panel] has discussed how Texas institutions want to prepare students to give back to the economy and how the legislature in D.C. is going to have to demand funds for education. To have a work force, you have to have people graduating and getting degrees.”

come out and experience this with me,” Winkley said. All proceeds will go toward benefiting the local Unified teams in travel expenses, uniforms, equipment, facility fees and transportation. Katy Dempsey, celebrity player from Candy 95, said her passion and interest in the team and upcoming event started a while back. While hosting Candy 95’s “Party on the Patio” every Thursday at Ozona’s Bar and Grill, she met some of the players who invited her to watch practices. After being amazed by the talent of the athletes, she became part of the team. “I always try and find ways to get involved in the community,” Dempsey said. “Being a part of this group, I cannot wait to see the attendance Saturday and hope to see success in raising money. I know how much everything costs and never want it to keep the team from going further.” Event tickets are $5 and are available in the main lobby at the College Station Medical Center. They can also be purchased at the gate or by emailing volunteer@asotv.tamu. edu.
