Review: Students make Taylor’s special Chris Pina @OColly Human Sciences houses a unique, delicious and affordable restaurant. It isn’t well-known, but it’s definitely worth trying.

Taylor’s Dining Room is a special experience for a variety of reasons.

It’s remarkably affordable considering the high quality of food. The service is unparalleled, and the ambience manages to be both captivating and relaxing at the same time.

But perhaps what makes Taylor’s an experience rather than a place to grab lunch is that students in the School of Hotel and Restaurant Administration are solely responsible for every aspect of the lunch service.

It isn’t just a restaurant, but a learning experience for every worker customers interact with at Taylor’s.

Once seated in one of the 110 chairs on the floor, or in the private room that seats up to 40 for groups, student servers take drink orders. In addition to the usual medley of sodas, teas

and water, Taylor’s offers specialty coffees, espressos and cappuccinos.

While waiting for food, patrons enjoy unlimited bread and captivating decor.

A programmable piano offers a soundtrack.

Once the food arrives, it is presented beautifully and tastes delicious. It might be hard to imagine that students are responsible for everything.

Jordan Rowlan, a senior majoring in hotel and restaurant administration and minoring in entrepreneurship, is one of the students responsible for cooking the meals.

Rowlan has always loved to eat, she said, and a journey through a few different majors brought her to hotel and restaurant administration.

Rowlan has much experience in this field, with a colorful list of internships and skills, from interning in San Diego to brewing her own beer. She also enjoys the flow of students during the lunch rush.

“When you’re hustling and bustling around the restaurant, that’s when you learn the best,” Rowlan said.

After the food is gone

and the ticket is presented (which is generally under an hour, for all the timeconscious lunch goers) the price isn’t exactly what most students would expect from an eatery that offers a fullrestaurant experience.

It’s cheaper.

That’s right, no entree at Taylor’s is more than $11,

and they accept meal plans, a bursar charge, credit cards, and of course, cash.

The ratio of price to quality could be seen as absurd, but that’s just part of what makes Taylor’s such a great lunch choice.

So if delicious food, a great atmosphere or the opportunity to support a great

group of students sounds appetizing, make your way to Taylor’s Dining Room, open Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., for a lunch that’s unlike any other on campus and an experience that’ll have you coming back for more. news@ocolly.com

Richards continues to beat the odds

Ramon Richards (18) had five tackles, a pass break-up and an interception in OSU’s 45-35 win against Texas Tech on Thursday night.

Tim Ahrens @ahrens_tim When cornerback Ashton Lampkin went down with a right ankle injury against Texas Tech, the Cowboys turned to a former quarterback to take his place.

They turned to Ramon Richards, a true freshman new at corner who saw little playing time in Oklahoma State’s first three games.

Now, he was called upon in the first quarter to go up against one of the most dangerous passing games in the nation.

They turned to Richards, an inner-city kid from San Antonio who has been going against the odds and beating them since birth.

‘HE’S ALWAYS BEEN COMPETITIVE’ Richards was born in San Antonio and faced problems from the start. Doctors said Richards’ spine was fused in several places, meaning he might have trouble walking, let alone playing football.

“They thought he would have learning troubles, and we was told he would have growth problems,” said mother Ruth Murray in an interview with KEVY-TV. “(It) would either stunt his growth or have to be surgically repaired before he would be able to function normally as a teenager.”

As Richards grew older, doctors continued to push for him to have surgery.

When Richards was 10, his parents decided it was too risky to go through with.

What was more concern-

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 2014

ing was how they would pay for Richards’ surgery.

The family of five lived in a one-bedroom apartment, and his parents worked two jobs in attempts to turn the apartment’s water back on and stay afloat financially.

Murray, who was in school at the time, said the emotional toil was too much at times. But she didn’t let it show.

“You have your ups and downs, and you do cry,” Murray said. “But you don’t cry in front of your kids. You cry at night when they’re in bed and you’re by yourself.”

Richards saw his parents’ hard work from the start, and he followed suit with his education. From second grade on, Murray said Richards was competitive regardless of the area.

So competitive, he kept

awards from second grade on his wall while he was in high school.

“They’ve (my parents) been on me every report card I’ve gotten,” Richards said in an interview with KEVYTV. “A ‘B’ was unacceptable; it was straight As. And I’ve been competing since I was young.

“I want to be on that honor roll list.”

CUT LOOSE In seventh grade, Richards’ parents gave him the OK to play football.

“Once we kind of cut him loose, that was it,” Murray said. “He was in everything.”

Once Richards got on the field, he said it was basically like he was playing tag. He went on to play quarterback for Brackenridge, a 4A high school in San Antonio. Wil-

lie Hall, who has coached the Eagles for more than 30 years, said Richards is the most mobile, athletic quarterback he’s had.

But that’s nothing compared to the work ethic.

“I can come up here on a Sunday, not knowing I’m coming up here to work, and he’s on the track,” Hall said in an interview with KEVYTV. “I’m thinking, ‘I better get out of here, they’ll think I’m working with this young man.’”

Richards said that when he was told to do so many bench reps, he did twice as much and hoped his teammates would do the same.

He led Brackenridge to its first playoff win in 15 years his junior year.

Richards worked just as hard in school, rising to the top 6-percent of his class.

Soon, Harvard, Yale and Rice were among schools recruiting the 6-foot, 180-pound QB. But Richards wanted more. He wanted to play for a strong Division-I program.

And that’s where OSU came in.

“We saw him as the Justin Gilbert athleticism, that type of player,” OSU coach Mike Gundy said. “He’s very bright, ‘Yes sir, no sir.’ He’s the type of player, the type of person we want for this program.”

Richards could hardly contain his excitement once he was offered. Once the Cowboys threw their hat in the ring, all it took was a trip to Stillwater to make up Richards’ mind.

Authentic Indian food moves to The Strip Natalie Price @NataliePPrice

Instead of conforming to the American culture, Nilima Patil brought her Indian culture to the United States.

Patil and her husband, Krushna, moved to the United States from India in the early 2000s. The couple moved to Stillwater after Krushna received a job at Oklahoma State University.

While Krushna was working at the university, Patil decided she needed to do something with her time, so she opened Nilima’s Snack Meal Service.

Nilima’s started out as a daily catering company, then picked up on the current trend and became a food truck. The food truck sits at 411 S. Washington St., on The Strip between Hello Gorgeous and the soon-to-be pool hall.

Nilima’s serves Indian and Pakistani foods and offers vegan and vegetarian options.

When Patil first created the Snack Meal Service, her purpose was to help the international students from India feel less homesick.

She believed that by making and delivering the meals to the students, they would feel more at home and forget about the 8,500 miles that separates them from the food they grew up eating.

After receiving a positive response from the catering service, Patil realized it was time to take her business to the next level.

She opened the food truck, originally located on Knoblock in a parking lot by what was then Cowboy Bookstore.

“We had students, faculty, staff and everybody (at the other location),” Patil said. “But people are finding it a little more difficult to find this place.”

Even though the location has changed, the food and the service has not.

Patil creates a different menu daily to satisfy the wants and needs of her customers. Each dish is created using fresh vegetables that she purchases

from the local farmers market.

“Our first thing is to make the food very healthy and nutritious so they can eat it every day and it won’t harm them,” Patil said.

In addition to wanting her customers to eat healthy, Patil also wants them to be comfortable.

To achieve her goal, she has set up an outside sitting area under a tent for customers to enjoy their meal.

Nilima’s is open Monday to Friday from 11 a.m to 7 p.m.

“We are so happy that people like our food,” Patil said. “We want them to tell their friends and spread the word.” news@ocolly.com

Charitable students think ‘out of the box’ Amanda Taylor @OColly Every student upon graduation wants to change the world.

Few of actually get out there and do it.

Quinn Vandenberg and Jonathan Button are the power-couple founders of Life Out of the Box, a social venture aimed at developing countries.

At 25, the California natives grew restless working their jobs. In May 2012, they decided to take action.

What resulted was Life Out of The Box. How it works is simple.

You buy a bracelet from their website and a portion of that pays for a child to get school supplies in one of the countries Life Out of the Box works with.

“We wanted something that was bigger than us, and we wanted to give back,” Vandenberg said.

However, they didn’t know what that something was.

They began by booking a one-way ticket to Nicaragua, where they immersed themselves in the language and culture.

“We wanted to be open-minded,” Button said. “We wanted the country to teach us.”

By staying with local families and in more typical Nicaraguan areas, they were able to learn more than they ever had. They also lived vastly differently. A typical Nicaraguan

family lives on $2 a day.

After asking the local families how to do it, Vandenberg and Button did the same.

As for these locals, they had nothing but praise.

“They were so nice,” Vandenberg said. “We didn’t know the language that well, and they were so accepting and warm.”

While doing this, Button was busy working on his master’s degree in entrepreneurship from Oklahoma State University.

The classes he took helped them to ask questions that evolved into Life Out of the Box. “We loved TOMS business model,” Vandenberg said.

By collaborating with local artisans, they were able to put a very special spin on their product — a bracelet the artisan handcrafted.

The artisans were willing to help even more once they realized their work was going to benefit their community.

They also added their own enhancement to the TOMS model. When you order a Life Out of the Box bracelet, you get a unique ID number, which you can later use to look up photos of the child you donated to.

The bracelets were a huge success, but Vandenberg and Button didn’t want to stop there. After leaving Nicaragua, the couple moved on to Guatemala where they also got local artisans to put a Guatemalan spin on their bracelets, then to Moroc-

co. Now they have plans to donate in Mexico.

So how did they end up at Oklahoma State?

“I picked OSU because it had the highest ranking with the lowest cost,” Button said. “The entrepreneurship program at Oklahoma State also has a big emphasis on social entrepreneurship.”

Button, who has now graduated with his master’s in entrepreneurship, has found a new home in Stillwater. Vandenberg is currently a graduate student, seeking her master’s degree in entrepreneurship.

Life Out of the Box is one of 25 student businesses located in the Spears School of Business’ Student Startup Central.

“What really brought us here is the idea to grow the business,” Vandenberg said. “To take it to the next level with the resources that OSU provides for us.”

With plans to expand into more countries and provide more than just school supplies, they are excited for the opportunities ahead.

“We may never be completely satisfied,” Button said. “There’s always going

O’COLLY

to be children who need, and there’s always going to be countries who need and, that’s our goal, our direction. ”As far as milestones though, we get so stoked every time something big happens.”

A few big things have happened in the two-year lifespan of Life Out of the Box. With endorsements from Victoria’s Secret model Alexandra Ambrosio, being featured in the Boston Herald and an episode on HGTV’s “House Hunter’s International,” they’ve had quite a few moments to pat each

other on the back.

Even so, their biggest source of accomplishment is the giving.

“It’s so important for us to keep giving,” Vandenberg said. “There’s nothing like it, and eventually we would want other people to join us. To give a backpack to a child who has never had one … It’s really hard to understand if you’ve never seen a situation like that.

“Once you do, your mind is stretched, and it will never go back to its old dimensions.” news@ocolly.com PAGE 6

Stillwater proves tattoos are losing their stigma Alyssa Gregory @OColly Leonardo da Vinci had oil paints and wood panel.

Dorothea Lange had a Graflex camera and 4x5 film. Steven Spielberg had ARRI cameras and big screens.

Austin Woodliff, tattoo artist at Stillwater’s Modern Customs Tattoo, has skin and a tattoo machine.

“Skin is a canvas,” Woodliff said. “It’s just a different art medium.

Some people paint, some people draw, some people sculpt, some people play instruments or write music. They are all artists.

I just have a passion for tattooing.”

Art comes in many forms.

Tattoos, which were once looked on as only for sailors, bikers and gangsters, are becoming one of the fastest growing art forms. About 45 million Americans have at least one tattoo, according to a 2013 study by the Pew Research Center. Tattoo trends vary depending on demographics.

Stillwater, a town full of students, is no exception.

The fact that it is located in Bible Belt is.

“I do a lot of first-time tattoos, especially 18 and 19-year-olds,” Woodliff said. “They wait until they break away from their parents, and dip their toe into the proverbial adult waters and branch out by doing something on their own. And a lot of times,

that is getting drunk in public and getting a tattoo, not at the same time.”

Math and political science sophomore Kelsea Hull no longer lives at home but still faces classic hurdles to getting a tattoo.

Hull doesn’t have any tattoos yet because she said she was not allowed to get one while she lived with her parents thanks to her sister’s secret tattoo session.

Now, she said, it’s because she doesn’t have enough money.

Sometimes it is children, not parents, which delay the first tattoo.

Donetta Jamieson, art history senior, decided to wait until after she had her three kids to start the artwork on her body.

She got her first tattoo at the beginning of this year and now has five, ranging from script to a phoenix.

“Women have lots of little tattoos, and usually pick script(ures) or tattoos they’ve seen on Pinterest,” Woodliff said. “Men get fewer tattoos, but they are bigger, and they usually default to upper arm and shoulder blade religiousbased tattoos; even if they aren’t overly religious or tribal.”

Sydney Werner, international business freshman, brought a first to Woodliff, who has been a tattoo artist for eight years, with a kangaroo outline symbolizing her Australian family.

First, she followed up with a classic question: Will it hurt?

Woodliff said his an-

swer is always the same.

“I’m jabbing you with needles,” he said. “Yeah, it’s going to hurt. And all your buddies that said it wouldn’t hurt, they were lying to you. It’s not so painful, it is unbearable.”

But he did have a positive add-on for Werner.

Women can take on tattoos better than guys can because girls’ bodies are designed for it, Woodliff said.

“When the tattoo machine is on you for the first time it feels like crap,” Werner said. “But after it is done, it’s like no big deal.”

After 18 minutes of sitting in the reclining black chair, Werner became a part of team tatted and had already shared a photo of her new tattoo through text message, Facebook and Twitter.

For others, team allnatural is the only way to go.

Hull’s roommate, cellular and molecular biology sophomore Devin Davis, is a member of team allnatural and lives by the catchphrase, “Why would you put a bumper sticker on a Ferrari?”

Many people with tattoos see their bodies not

O’COLLY

as expensive temples but as walking canvases.

“Each of my tattoos tells a story about who I am and where I’ve been,” Jamieson said. “Also, I see tattoos as a way for artists to get their art. I see it as a painting and just as important as the art we study, like Leonardo.

“They get their art out more than the masters of art, because it’s shown to the world on a daily basis, and because unlike their predecessors who had to die before their work got circulated, tattoo artists are still in business.”

Tattoos are becoming

ALYSSA GREGORY/O’COLLY

popular and more accepted, even in the Bible Belt.

“The stigma that comes with tattoos, is one tattoo artists have been fighting as long as there have been tattoos,” Woodliff said.

“There are many cultures that tattooing is part of their culture. In ours, it is a coming of age type of thing. We choose to do it, and it is a thing done out of rebellion. It was just something you got slapped on you but has evolved and changed into what is now an art form.” news@ocolly.com PAGE 7

Beffer earns conference honors Dekota Gregory @dekotagregory Oklahoma State freshman standout Anna Beffer was announced as Big 12’s Newcomer of the Week on Tuesday after an impressive weekend at Cowgirl Soccer Complex.

Beffer recorded four shots Friday night, which led the team in its 1-0 victory against Iowa State to open up Big 12 play.

The forward did most of her damage Sunday against Dayton, Oklahoma State’s final nonconference match of the season. Sixty-four seconds into the match, Beffer found fellow freshman

Laurene Tresfield for a goal to put the Cowgirls ahead early. To ensure OSU’s sixth straight win, Beffer added a goal of her own early in the second half to make the final score 2-0. The rookie ended her weekend with six shots, half of which were on goal.

Beffer has been hurt most of the season, missing six games, but has managed to lead the team in nearly every offensive category.

The freshman has tallied six points this season thanks to a pair of goals, good for second on the team in both categories.

Beffer also leads the team with two assists.
