SGA Senate votes to reopen election filing, pending executive approval Stetson Payne @Stetson__Payne

Six days after a nearly four-hour Student Government Association Supreme Court hearing, the SGA Senate voted to reopen the filing window for presidential candidates in an emergency suspension of the bylaws.

The measure still needs presidential approval.

If President Matthew Chuning does not make a decision by the end of Friday, the motion will automatically pass and filing will open 8 a.m. Monday.

If Chuning vetoes, the motion will be sent back to the Feb. 25 Senate meeting for another two-thirds majority vote.

The measure would open filing for a 48-hour period between 8 a.m. Feb. 23 to 8 a.m. Feb. 25.

The issue stems from the Supreme Court’s Feb. 12 ruling, which declared that candidates Chance Imhoff and Jacquelyn Lane were ineligible after filing late, leaving Kyle Hilbert and

Chance Imhoff could still have a chance to run for SGA President, if he chooses.

Taylor Dennis to run unopposed.

Sen. Jeremiah Taylor made the motion to suspend the bylaws, to the surprise of many in the senate. Taylor had already written a bill clarifying the specific filing deadline for future elections earlier in the meeting, which later passed.

Taylor faced immense opposition, including from two committee chairs and Chuning, and needed a two-thirds majority to pass.

Throughout his plea to the senate, he insisted that this was not directed in favor of the Imhoff/Lane ticket

and said he did not know of anyone specific who would be running.

Taylor also mentioned that he was speaking on behalf of students, not himself in trying to reopen the filing.

“I had a few students that approached me,” Taylor said. “They were concerned that there wasn’t going to be a (contested) election. I also was told that the majority of our students don’t know that the president and vice president are paid a salary from student fees. Because of that, a lot of people expressed concern and wanted to be able to have a voice in

who they were going to be paying next year.

“I’ve had a chance to speak to a lot of people about SGA, and hopefully out of this someone will be motivated to actually run.”

SGA’s president and other top officers receive stipends each semester as part of their position. These are outlined in Title IV, Section 11 of SGA bylaws.

Taylor represents the Off-Campus Student Association and gathered more than 600 signatures from his constituents in support of his motion to reopen filing. He argued that while that is only three percent of

the student body, it makes up a significant portion of regular voters in SGA elections.

After debating the issue for 10 minutes, a roll call vote was called. Initially, several senators abstained from the vote, leaving it well short of the two-thirds majority. Only after all votes had been tallied and abstentions were reviewed did most of those senators change their votes in favor of the motion. A final tally of 27-12-3 moved the motion to the president, barely clearing the two-thirds majority.

Sen. Phillip Eby opposed the motion along with several other veteran senators, saying that it was not SGA’s place to reopen the election in light of the Supreme Court’s ruling.

“Do I believe that there should be only one candidate in the election? No,” Eby said. “But frankly, the other candidate pair didn’t file on time. They have to suffer the consequences.

I don’t think it’s SGA Senate’s place to reopen the election, just for one candidate.”

Eby also said that regardless of the specific candidate, it was not SGA’s place to reopen filing.

President Chuning discussed the matter at length with Taylor after the meeting, and it remains unclear as to whether he will approve the motion. Chuning represented the Election Agency during the Supreme Court hearing and has been an opponent of reopening the election.

“I do have my concerns about suspending the bylaws through emergency action,” Chuning said. “I think something like this really needs to be thought through, and a lot of considerations need to go into something like this. But I’m considering it, and I will make a decision within the required time.

“I think that students do need to have their voices heard, and that is the purpose of student government. I also think we have bylaws for a reason, and that we have a responsibility to our constituents to abide by those bylaws.” news@ocolly.com

Jeff Newberry: ‘I see a difference in Mitch (Solomon) on and off the court’ Cody Stavenhagen @CodyStavenhagen

If you’ve followed Oklahoma State basketball at all over the past two weeks, it’s no secret that freshman post Mitchell Solomon’s stock is on the way up.

The 6-foot-9 big man from Bixby might appear goofy, but he’s beginning to show some serious game as he delivers quality minutes off the bench for OSU. Cowboys forward Jeff Newbery said that Solomon’s emergence isn’t only noticeable on the court.

Newberry went on to detail how Solomon is coming out

his head when he makes a mistake or anything. So we lovin’ the Mitch now.”

of his shell as the Cowboys prepare to face West Virginia at home Saturday at 1 p.m.

Mitch Solomon said (OSU continuing to play well) isn’t about if you can. It’s about whether you want to. What does that mean coming from him?

Newberry: “You know if you got a guy like Mitch saying it, it can be done.

Mitch came in not even talking much. We couldn’t even get Mitch to talk. If Mitch says that, and Mitch is believing and playing with extremely great confidence, we know he can do it. We’re just taking it game by game and trying to make that happen.

JACKIE DOBSON/O’COLLY

Mitchell Solomon has noticably come out of his shell lately.

What kind of difference have you seen in him since his dunk against Kansas?

“I see a difference in Mitch on the court and off.

In practice, he’s dunking

everything. He wouldn’t dunk at first. We’ll be doing drills and stuff, and Mitch is just dunking everything and smiling and laughing and having fun. He’s not hanging

O’COLLY

After a guy breaks out with a celebration (like Solomon did against KU), how much grief do they get in the locker room?

“When we got back we saw a Vine on Twitter. We saw Mitch all pumped up.

Man, that was great to see.

We just knew that Mitch had finally loosened up a little bit and was ready to come out. That was good.

Everybody in the locker room, we dance, we have fun, just great team chemistry.”

Does Mitch dance, too?

“Oh no, no, no, no. We get him to nod his head to

some rap music now finally.

But dancin’— if Mitch does that, I’ll be sure to let y’all know.”

What’s it like when he’s nodding his head?

“He’s kind of offbeat.

He’s catching up a little bit now. We’ll catch him and be like, ‘Look at Mitch, look at Mitch,’ then he’ll stop. That’s just Mitch for you.”

What’s the dance move you want to see him do?

“It’s a dance called The Whip that a lot of us do. We want to see Mitch do that before the season is over.

I’m gonna get him to do it before the year’s over. I will.” sports@ocolly.com

TALL EXPECTATIONS: Coleman, Jensen provide bright future for Cowgirls Chandler Vessels @ChandlerVessels

Mandy Coleman and Kaylee Jensen have a lot in common.

They’re both tall, callow post players with potential to match their height. They both approach learning with an eagerness that enables them to excel not only on the court, but also in the classroom.

And after a long day of classes and practice, they both like to watch Netflix.

They do have their differences, though. Coleman enjoys the humor of “Family Guy” while Jensen prefers to watch “Vampire Diaries.”

“The two main vampires are so cute,” she said.

There is another noticeable difference about the Oklahoma State Cowgirls’ dynamic-duo-in-training.

“Day and night, those two,” coach Jim Littell said.

“One’s always talking and one’s never talking.”

The 6-foot-4 Jensen is boisterous, effervescent. She relishes attention and is in a perpetual state of wackiness.

When she has to be serious, she can be. She was very cordial during her interview.

But not even a second after it was over, she turned and slapped a basketball out of teammate LaShawn Jones’ hands, and the two fell into an uncontrollable giggle fit.

“She doesn’t know a stranger,” Littell said of Jensen.

Coleman is quiet, demure.

She shies from the spotlight.

She listens, imbibing the information spouted off by

coaches in practice. It took time, but she eventually opened up to her teammates.

“At first I thought Mandy, she was really quiet when she got here,” Jones said.

“But all of a sudden she can’t stop talking and laughing. She has the funniest laugh that I’ve ever heard in my life.”

Coleman and Jensen have bonded in their freshman season through the difficult task of trying to adjust to the college game.

When Jensen first arrived at OSU, she was out of shape. But she underwent summer workouts and made some changes to her diet in order to shed some pounds, which she achieved. It’s a process that she credits with helping her be able to move better on the court.

“If (Coleman) thought it was hard, it was like 10 times harder for me,” Jensen said. “I usually didn’t run up and down the court at all because I didn’t really feel the need to in high school.

When I got here there was big changes for me.”

Coleman faced the same struggles.

“I remember when they first got here they couldn’t run up and down the floor,” Jones said. “They really couldn’t. They were used to the high school speed.

But once they got into the group, they picked up everything really quickly.”

While Jensen admits it’s an unfinished transformation, the numbers are starting to show results.

She is averaging 6.5 points and 5.0 rebounds per game over the past six

Mandy Coleman emailed OSU coaches to express her interest in playing in Stillwater.

games. Against Baylor, she proved the only effective post option. She has exhibited potential of becoming a premier offensive option in the future.

“Kaylee is a good listener,” Littell said. “She’s a smart young lady that is kind of a sponge. Everything you put out there, she’s looking at you, looking you in the eye, listening, and wanting to get better. I think she’s had

a nice freshman year and continues to get better. She’s very, very strong and she’s a player that needs to improve her shape so she can play more minutes.”

While Coleman’s progression has been slower, there’s no denying her future is bright.

‘WE’RE NOT OREGON STATE’ The story of Coleman’s

O’COLLY

high school career and recruitment process is hard to believe.

Each year, the coaching staff receives copious amounts of emails from players who feel they might have been overlooked. So when Coleman’s email showed up in the inbox of associate coach Bill Annan, it didn’t appear to be special.

Coleman attended McNair High School in Stock-

ton, California. There she, at 6-foot-3, played point guard through her junior season.

It was a matter of necessity.

The team was out of options, and Coleman was the most poised with the ball.

It was then that she honed a skillset that sets her apart from most post players.

When Annan received the email, he felt compelled to respond. After finding out Coleman’s height and that she played point guard, he asked for film on Coleman, but the school had none. So he asked for more information, and what he heard peaked his interest.

Not only did Coleman play basketball, but she also participated in track where she threw the shot 40 feet.

She anchored the fourby-100 relay team.

By this point, Annan was convinced Coleman was an athlete worth pursuing.

But he was still incredulous about one thing.

“I said ‘Coach, you’re aware that when you put OSU down there, we’re Oklahoma State,’” he said. “’We’re not Oregon State.

We’re both black and orange.’”

But Coleman was interested in Oklahoma. She had family living in Tulsa and Oklahoma City. Her father, Carl Coleman, was born in Oklahoma City and would tell his children stories from his childhood.

Mandy was enthralled with the tales, and decided that she wanted a break from the hectic life of the big city. She knew a small town such as Stillwater

from the fundraiser.

Coley Ralston, Vice President of Outreach for Dance Marathon, has been involved since the initial event in 2012 and holds the event’s purpose close to heart.

“What a joy it is to see a child beaming because they feel so loved and special,” said Ralston.

The SGA Dance Marathon is Saturday, Feb. 21, 10 a.m.-10 p.m. in the Colvin Center Annex. Last year’s event raised more than $75,000; this year’s goal is $100,000.

BY K ATIE ROSEBROOK

More than 2,000 students will be on their feet for hours on Saturday in support of the Children’s Hospital Foundation during the Oklahoma State University Student Government Association’s Dance Marathon. The event takes place from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. in the Colvin Center Annex.

Boasting the mantra “For The Kids,”

over 200 student volunteers work throughout the year to raise money for pediatric research while supporting children treated in Oklahoma. This year’s funding raising goal is $100,000. Last year students raised over $75,000 The 12-hour event will include a variety of activities: live music, performances, plus an opening ceremony introducing

Excitement for the cause doesn’t stop at the student level. Kent Sampson is director of Campus Life at OSU and is an avid supporter of this student-driven event. He says engagement experiences like this one can be life-changing events for students.

“The Dance Marathon is exciting for our students because it allows them to work with an outside organization for a welldeserving cause,” said Sampson. “Giving students service opportunities is an important foundation of the educational experience at OSU.” Dance Marathon Executive Director Chris Stockton is looking forward to seeing the fundraising reveal at the end of the event.

“It represents all of the hard work that people on our team have done throughout the entire year,” said Stockton.

Q: Is it Barbie’s fault that people develop eating disorders, body shame, and low self esteem?

A: No. However, Barbie is a highly symbolic representation of a larger issue which is America’s obsession with standards of beauty that are usually impossible to achieve.

Service-Learning is a teaching and learning strategy that integrates meaningful community service with instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, teach civic responsibility, and strengthen communities.

Over the last four years the Service Learning Volunteer Center at OSU has logged more than 240,000 volunteer hours by students through programs and activities.

The center meets a critical component of an OSU student’s educational experience: Service and Civic Engagement.

Q: What are those unrealistic standards?

A: Excessive thinness and hypersexualization for females and hyper-masculinity and the muscular ideal for males.

“Live Life in Full Color” - National Eating Disorder Week

DID YOU KNOW? If Barbie was proportioned to human size she would have to walk on all fours because her bottom half wouldn’t be able to support her top, her neck would be unable to

36” BUST

support her head, her 15 inch waist could only hold half a liver, and her BMI of 16.24 would fit the criteria for Anorexia Nervosa.

See what Barbie would really look like when a life-size version of the doll is on display in the Student Union; Tues., Feb. 24; 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. In addition, a panel discussion on the topic of how to support someone with a body image or eating disorder will follow in the Student Union Theater beginning at 5:30 p.m. For information about National Eating Disorder Awareness Week call Kari Pratt in University Health Services at (405)744-3997.

Q: So how do those unrealistic body ideals affect me?

A: What we see on TV and in the media eventually become our standards for reality. Consistently failing to meet these standards can result in perceived

deficiencies and not feeling good enough for ourselves and others.

DID YOU KNOW? One study, conducted on 162 girls ages 5 to 8, who were exposed to Barbie Dolls, Emme dolls (U.S. size 16), or no dolls and then completed assessments of body image, found that

those exposed to Barbie dolls produced “lower self-esteem and a greater desire for a thinner body shape than in the other conditions.” Researchers concluded that early exposure to unrealistic body ideals may distort girls’ body image perceptions and in turn influence them to engage in extreme dieting and exercise behaviors in an effort to meet Society’s unrealistic standards for beauty.

Q: So I don’t feel very good about my body. What’s the big deal if I want to go on a crash diet and exercise a lot?

A: At best, there is a high probability that negative body image, erratic eating behaviors, and excessive exercise will lead to impaired self-esteem, impaired performance, and impaired relationships. At worst, researchers have shown that these behaviors will lead to the development of an eating disorder in those individuals who are genetically predisposed to this illness.

DID YOU KNOW? Preteen girls report they are more afraid of FAT than cancer or losing their parents.

Q: What can I do now?

A: Join the campaign to end FAT TALK on the O-STATE campus. The time is NOW to take control of the conversation, stop buying into unhealthy and unobtainable ideas about beauty, and become a critical viewer of the media. Want to know more about the campaign? Check out

would be the perfect fit. She took a visit and fell in love with the school.

Her father couldn’t have been more supportive of her decision.

“I still get stories that he hasn’t told me,” Coleman said.

For Annan, it’s still hard to believe how Coleman basically fell into the Cowgirls’ lap.

“It was just kind of one of those funny things,” Annan said. “Sometimes you work so hard recruiting to find a kid and then out of the blue, because of relatives and her

dad was very familiar with the area, here she is.”

Coleman says the adjustment has been strange, but she knows she made the right decision.

“It’s very cold down here,” Coleman said. “I’m not used to wearing this puff jacket and stuff like that. I’m just used to it being busy, and it’s not that busy here besides when school’s in session.”

But it’s more than just that. Being so far away from home has allowed Coleman to mature.

It’s a typical practice day, and all the players have since left. Except for Coleman. She stays behind, the guard inside her hoisting up jump shots.

The qualities of selfdiscipline and hard work are already manifesting

“But to be honest with you, Mandy kind of wanted that.

PASSING OF THE TORCH At the end of this season, a passing of the torch will take place.

Jones will graduate and the future of the post will be left in the hands of Coleman and Jensen. But after spending providing a year of tutelage, she is confident that those are good hands to leave it in.

“When I first got here, compared to where I came, they are light years ahead of me,” Jones said. “I think

they’re going to leave a really good impression on the program and do a really good job.”

It’s a duo that the Cowgirls could be leaning on in the near future.

“We’re counting on it,” Littell said. “We’re counting on both those to be impact players in the program. We always have wanted to have a balance between an inside and outside game, but we want to be able to pitch it inside and have the ability to score and those two need to continue to change their body, get in better shape, continue to grow in their knowledge of the game.

“But most definitely we’re counting on both of them for the future.” sports@ocolly.com
