Student, faculty, staff data compromised in STLCC cyber attack Social security numbers for 71 individuals accessed
O
Bri Heaney News editor
n Feb, 4, STLCC announced in a press release that a cyber security attack occurred in January. Approximately 5, 127 students, faculty and staff were affected by the breach. Nearly 71 social security numbers were compromised during the cyber attack. “I don’t know how they discovered it, but I do know they discovered it Jan. 13, and after that they took some actions steps such as collecting and analyzing the information, the different systems to analyze who was impacted, “said Nev Savala, STLCC communications manager located at the Corporate Cwampus. The cyber security attack was the result of what Savala calls a phishing email. “A phishing email is a suspicious email; you might know that there is something not right about it but sometimes these emails look really
good or look like they may be from an organization that you are familiar with,” she said. Although some emails are more clearly fake, some emails, like the ones sent to staff and faculty at STLCC were more credible looking, she said. Savala said there are red flags in some phishing scams that individuals
can look for like misspellings, unusual URL addresses, or sourced from an organization that is not familiar. However, there are some phishing emails that are more intricate and targeted to look like a familiar legitimate organization. “Sometimes these emails look really good or look like they may be from an
organization that you are familiar with,” said Savala. “In this case, an email was opened and that led to these cyber criminals being able to get access to the information that was in email inboxes.” When the emails were opened and responded to, Savala said sensitive information was breached. After learning about the attack and during the investigation, Savala said she was not aware of any servers or websites being temporarily shut down. Savala said STLCC has notified all students whose information was compromised and has offered credit monitoring to the 71 individuals whose social security numbers were accessed. As for prevention, Savala said that all staff will be re-trained. “There is going to be retraining for all employees on how to handle sensitive information, and further training for employees who opened the phishing emails,” she said. The cyber criminals who forged the attack is still unknown. Savala said that the college is still looking into it.
Study abroad at STLCC
Where in the world could you go this year? Jools Pulcher Art & Life Editor One of the biggest draws for some four year schools tends to be the study abroad programs they offer. However, students don’t need to go to a four year school to experience study abroad. At STLCC, one of the many opportunities students can take advantage of is their choice of study abroad programs. STLCC’s current opportunities
include trips to China, Russia, Costa Rica, Colombia, Scotland, and Canterbury, England. Each trip offered has its own timeline and specific purpose. Students interested in Russian art can sign up for the Russia trip from May 20- June 2 through STLCC. The trip to Costa Rica runs from May 20-29, and it is centered around the endangered ecosystems that exist there and the study of the rainforest. Students looking at visiting Colombia
can do just that on the study abroad trip that lasts from May 20-29. This trip is centered around the study of the health services offered in Colombia. In addition to all other instruction for the trip, attendees will also learn some basic medical Spanish. The Scotland trip lasts from June to July, and is centered around the University of Stirling. During this trip, students learn about the University and what it could offer should students apply

Bri Heaney News editor aint Louis Community College at Meramec’s Adjunct Teacher Kat Fossil was arrested in the SIUE Janitor’s protest on Jan.
27. The protest was in reference to wages of Saint Louis Local 1 Union Janitors to receive a pay increase to $15 an hour. Democratic Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders tweeted about the protest in downtown St. Louis. “I’m proud to stand with the brave janitors of @SEIULocal1 and their allies who are risking arrest today in St. Louis to fight for living wages and respect on the job,” tweeted Sanders. According to the Union members’ message on Twitter, this wage increase is the difference between being able to feed themselves and their families. The Union’s Twitter also claimed that this is in line with a pay increase that
Saint Louis City Mayor Lyda Krewson signed into effect in 2018. Although the protest was for increased wages for the janitor’s union, it is the same union that the adjunct teachers of STLCC, Washington University, and Saint Louis University are members of as well. “I thought it was important to be at the protest for the janitors because there are a lot of groups of labor here in St. Louis right now that have a chance to stand together and we are all fighting for very similar things,” said Fossil. SIUE declares itself as an international union of 1.9 million members that focuses on public service, health services, and property services. Adjuncts will be returning to the bargaining table for their own labor agreements this spring. Currently they are not permitted to have their own strike or protest, although some are choosing to stand with all members, including those of different trades, said Fossil.
“I was willing to be arrested for the janitors’ fight for a living wage because I understand that these hard-working people, like us adjuncts, [who] just want to be able to do their jobs,” said Fossil. “It is unprofessional and inhumane to expect people to perform jobs with no support from the system they work within.” Sixteen protestors were arrested alongside Fossil, according to a union spokesperson. She was accompanied by City Alderman Meagan Green, Lew Moye, the former president of the Saint Louis Collation of Black Trade Unionist, and Rev. Daryl Gray, a pastor and civil rights activist, among others. Fossil was the only adjunct to be arrested in the protest, and said that they were locked up for a few hours and even took a couple selfies while they were in the “clink.” “It was a really cool group of people to be arrested with,” said Fossil.

The Missouri legislature is considering a bill that would restrict what books minors can access at public libraries. The bill, House Bill 2044, is also known as the “Parental Oversight of Public Libraries Act.” HB 2044 is sponsored by Republican Representative Ben Baker, could also impose fines or imprison librarians. The bill summary requires that each library in the state of Missouri have a “review board” made up of five elected, volunteer “adult resident” members of the community. By the bill’s definition, a public library is one that receives state aid and “provides public access to age-inappropriate sexual material.” The members of the review board are not required to have any background on politics, art, science, literature or child development, despite the fact that the board would determine whether or not library materials “taken as a whole, lacks serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value for minors.” If the review board decides a book is not appropriate for minors, it will not be made available for anyone under age 18 at that library. The Missouri Library Association released a statement regarding HB2044 on Jan. 15. “Public libraries exist to provide equitable access to information to all of its users, as it is key to having an informed populace. Public libraries already have procedures in place to assist patrons in protecting their own children while not infringing upon the rights of other pa-
trons or restricting materials.” Janice Hovis, professor and librarian at St. Louis Community College at Meramec, said that she is “concerned but not overly concerned…it [the bill] is simply proposed by one legislator. I don’t think it will go anywhere. I can’t believe that there would be any support for this,” she said.

Abroad Coordinator, there are a few restrictions on who can participate in the study abroad trips offered by the college. “So each trip is different, but generally speaking students need to be 18 years of age or older, they need to have a valid U.S. passport or any other passport as international students may also participate in study abroad. In addition, students must have 12 college credit hours and a certain GPA which is more specific to the program,” he said. While the restrictions on the program appear nominal, the experiences students can possibly gain are not. According to student Paul Wisehart, who previously participated in the Canterbury trip, the experiences are important for teaching students about themselves. “What I liked most is that there was more community there. It gave you the opportunity to learn more about yourself and see how you function in different scenarios outside your comfort zone,” said Wisehart. Wisehart also said that he has a piece of advice for anyone who chooses to participate in study abroad. “If anyone goes, I would push them to do things that are uncomfortable for them,” he said. “The whole point of going is to experience something different, so do the things that make you deathly uncomfortable.” For more information about Study Abroad Opportunities, contact Chris Sulincevski at csulincevski@stlcc.edu and 314-644-9671.

Is our healthcare working?
Not a chance
Mary Wilson opinions editor
A
t a recent visit to my gastroenterologist, I was prescribed a new medicine to treat my Crohn’s disease. “You haven’t responded well enough to the other medications,” my doctor said. “Have you heard of Humira?” And with that, my quest began. I knew that healthcare costs and medication prices were higher in the USA—in some cases, significantly higher. I’d heard politicians and Facebook commenters alike debate the merits of “universal healthcare.” And so, while I was on hold with insurance companies, I began to research, drafting an article in my mind. Humira is a biologic drug. The discovery of biologic drugs is relatively new; according to the Biosimilars Resource Center website; the first biologic approved was human insulin. It was marketed in 1982. Biologics, according to the Biosimilars Resource Center website, are “made from material that comes from living organisms, including humans, animals and microorganisms such as bacteria or yeast.” So-called ‘conventional medicines’ (or, for the science-minded: smallmolecule drugs) “are made from pure chemical substances, and their structure can be identified and characterized relatively easily.” So if biologics are more difficult to make, it would make sense that they would be more expensive. Right? That’s certainly logical. According to statista.com, in 2017, in the United Kingdom, the average price of Humira per dose was $860 U.S. dollars. In the Netherlands, it’s a little lower, coming in at $780 U.S. dollars per dose. South Africa is even lower, costing $740 U.S. dollars per dose. In 2017, in the United States of America, the average price of Humira per dose was $4,480. I’m confused—is the Humira that doctors prescribe in the USA different than the Humira doctors prescribe in
the United Kingdom? Does it come in fancier packaging? What could explain such a dramatic difference in price for the same medication? Let’s move away from medication prices and take a look at babies. Businessinsider.com reports that the “average cost to have a baby in the U.S., without complications during delivery, is $10,808.” This does not include the care moms-to-be receive before and after pregnancy. Over $10,808 to deliver a baby is a lot, yes. But if that’s what it takes to deliver a healthy baby, then it’s worth it. Right? In Canada, insider.com reports that “the average price for a natural birth is only $3,195.” It would be one thing if the USA boasted the lowest rates for maternal and infant mortality. However, that’s simply not true. The CIA World Factbook lists a high maternal mortality rate for mothers in the USA: 14 deaths per 100,000 live births. In contrast, the rate for Canada is seven deaths per 100,000 live births. Infant mortality is also higher in the USA than in other countries with universal healthcare. The CIA World Factbook puts the United States at 5.8 infant deaths per 1,000 live births. Canada has a rate of 4.5 infant deaths per 1,000 live births. So there it is: healthcare costs more in the USA than in other countries with universal healthcare. Countries with universal healthcare have better maternal and infant mortality rates. And we spend more, too: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services website says that as a share of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), “health spending accounted for 17.7 percent.” In other words, in 2018, we spent $11,172 on each person. In Canada, healthcare spending is “$7,068 per person,” according to the Canadian Institute for Health Information. Is our current healthcare system working? Not really. It’s more expensive, less effective and our country spends more per person on healthcare compared to other countries.
Letter to the Editor Men are Generic, Women are Special: Who Can be an Archer in 2020? Dear Editor, Who can be an Archer? According to The Montage, men. Women who play sports for St. Louis Community College are called Lady Archers. The assumption that “male” is the default gender isn’t unique to The Montage. But it’s an old trope that needs to be retired. It’s ironic that we celebrate the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage while simultaneously reminding all women who read this publication of “their place.” In times when we can’t seem to keep the Constitution safe from the President’s assaults, why should we care how The Montage refers to (in some cases nationally-ranked) women athletes? We should care because words aren’t just a collection of letters used to approximate speech. Words are also symbols that carry the weight of history. When we refer to athletes as “Lady Archers,” what are we saying? Are we saying that even with the passage of Title IX of the Education Amendments (48 years ago, by the way!) women’s sport is not as important as men’s? Is it sexist to call STLCC’s women’s teams the Lady Archers? The argument for doing so is that men’s teams preceded women’s teams so to differentiate between the two, reporters started inserting “Lady” in front of the Team name. In 2020, do STLCC’s women-identified athletes need a constant reminder that they are not the men’s team? Are players, coaches, and fans going to the wrong places to practice or watch games? Is there rampant confusion as men’s and women’s teams try take the court or field at the same time because without putting the “Lady” modifier in it’s anyone’s guess? To answer these questions, we need go back to 2007. Then-president of the Women’s Sports Foundation, Aimee Mullins said, “On surface, it seems like a small issue, but it’s symptomatic of a larger pattern of women’s sports programs being viewed as the stepchild of men’s programs…I think it’s passe now.” Of course, “now,” back then was 2007. Here we go again 13 years later! The world of sports is ideologically male, not demographically. Boer (2009) noted in Social Science Quarterly, “I was told by a Red Sox official that since he began working at Fenway Park in the early 1980s the male/female ratio at the park has remained consistently even.” Professional franchises make a lot of money off of their women-identified fans, so one would think these they’d make more of an effort to be inclusive of those fans. I’m disappointed that women still have to strive for basic equality and inclusion. In the board room or on the ball field, women are reminded that men are considered the default, normal gender while women are anomalies needing different rules. STLCC’s website encourages everyone to “embrace diversity and inclusion.” Moreover, looking into the future, a core value of STLCC is to “ensure that all activities demonstrate commitment to diversity and inclusion.” The Montage can be a positive force for diversity and inclusion by ending the practice of calling our women’s teams Lady Archers. When reporting on sports, don’t focus on the gender identity and/or gender expression of the athlete. Focus on the game.

Why does voting matter? Why voters should care about this country Jools Pulcher art & life editor Voting is the most important civic duty that exists in this country. Full stop. The best and most persuasive argument I can give for this is also one that is something that can’t be fully explained. Voting is participation in what happens to you as a citizen. Voting determines what happens to you. If you aren’t voting, you are letting Jesus, or whichever higher power you believe in, take the wheel of your life. I can’t explain the concept of self preservation. You should care what happens to you. However, there are a lot of other important points as to why voting is important. I mean one of the biggest arguments is the dumpster fire of a government that currently holds office. The Trump administration has consistently stripped away the rights of
millions of Americans, and jeopardized the lives of countless human beings attempting to come to the U.S. But even if that weren’t the case, Trump isn’t qualified or mentally stable enough to run a country. But, he holds the highest office in this country. And for what reason? Well, dear reader, most of it has to do with the fact that we didn’t take our elections seriously enough to keep him out of office. In 2016, 58 percent of our voter eligible population actually voted. Now, if you got that percentage on any sort of examination or graded assignment, your reaction would automatically be to attempt to fix what you did for the next time around. So why is it that
we see this statistic and still don’t attempt to fix our voter problem? Is it because we are lazy or we just don’t care? Ultimately, in the fight for our future, knowledge is power. There are two things you need to be aware of to be a successful and informed voter. These things are voter roll purging, deadlines, and election requirements. To start off, voter roll purging is when a registered voter is kicked off of the administrative records that list them as eligible to vote. This method is used as a method of tilting elections to the advantage of one side or the other by taking unsuspecting voters by surprise. The ugly thing about voter roll purging is that while it can happen to anyone
at any time, it usually targets minority voters and by the time they realize, it’s too late. To counteract the effects of purging, it is always advisable to double and triple check your voter registration every so often to ensure you haven’t been purged. The second thing you should be aware of is deadlines. Every so often you can check any number of voting advocacy websites, or even the website for your Secretary of State, and which elections are being held should be available for your viewing. Some states, such as Missouri, may have deadlines that logically seem early. The Secretary of State’s website is your best friend for any and all things voting related. Whether you need assistance finding your polling place, figuring out when election day is, or even registering to vote, this website is a one stop shop. I have faith in us as a nation, so please register to vote. Happy voting everyone.
