Still Waiting

Students and professors predict election results Jennifer Maupin Rarely are the results of the presidential election not declared on election night, but 2020 is hardly a year of normality. The first round of polls closed at 6 p.m. CST and, as of midnight Wednesday, the American people do not have an outcome to the much anticipated election. Biden is leading but most battle-ground states are too close to call. Biochemistry major Brenden Determan said it definitely feels like ‘living through a

chapter of history.’ “The emotions surging through my mind range from being nervous to being patient,” Determan said. “We all know that someone has to be named the US President at the end of this election. It is just a matter of when that will happen because it will cause many to be very anxious of the outcome that is to follow. Student and professor predictions for when results will be final are all across the board. OSU freshman Charles Paulson predictics results will be final by Friday. History professor Jared Eberle said he has ‘no idea.’ “I told my student today because they asked and I said it’s 2020, I have given up trying to give up anything that is go-

ing to happen long ago because every time I’ve tried it’s been spectacularly wrong,” Eberle said. “I told them I’m going to go home, listen to records and go to bed. And we’ll see and who knows.” There is no doubt that this election will impact students at OSU and across the country. Engineering senior Nicole Koza said she hopes President Trump wins. “[Trump] has cut taxes and has been a proponent for American Manufacturing,” Koza said. “Additionally, I am from Houston where the local economy is largely affected by oil and gas. Biden has been very against oil and gas which would hurt Houston and my family is in the welding supply industry (largely affected by the oil and

gas industry) so that would hurt our business long term.” On the other side of the vote, agriculture communications major Allyson Eller said she is absolutely terrified for the results. “Although I am white and won’t lose much if Trump wins I am terrified for our future if he does,” Eller said. “I’m terrified for my friends. I am in such a state of shock that anyone can vote for a man who talks about minorities the way Trump does.” While Koza and Eller are supporting opposing candidates, they had one thing in common this election night. Both students are getting election updates between breaks from homework.

Local election Defending against divide results OSU police prepared for potential unrest following election results By Anna Pope

As election results continue to unfold, people’s fear of electionrelated unrest continues to rise, but Oklahoma State University is prepared for events following Election Day. From observing the national political climate, OSU President Burns Hargis says he is worried about what might happen after the election. “On either side there’s some people that are pretty radical,” Hargis said. “I fear [they] might take to the streets. It’s a shame the country’s become so divided… I’m far from putting the blame on any one area.” While OSU’s leadership is concerned, the campus police department and the departments of student affairs are ready for any eventualities.

File photo OSU police are prepared if there's any unrest after election.

Each department planned for Election Day and whatever may follow. Even though they both prepared differently, they resonate a message of encouraging respect among students despite differences of opinion. Last Friday, student affairs sent an email encouraging students to facilitate effective conversations along with options to cope with the election results, such as taking advantage of the campus mental health resources. Even though the student affairs an-

ticipated a number of possibilities, public information officer Shannon Rigsby says the police department is aware of the national political conversation and the planned for any occurrences on Election Day but cannot predict what will happen. “I’m not comfortable speculating at all,” Rigsby said. “Speculation is not a good thing to do in practice, but preparation is necessary.” Rigsby also said she is fortunate to be in a community where protests earlier in the year were peaceful

and says she hopes people will continue to show consideration for one another. “Regardless of the outcome of the election our expectation is for our campus community to treat everyone with respect,” Rigsby said. “Regardless of their beliefs about their election.” These preparations include extra patrols around various polling locations, monitoring social media and stressing the idea of open conversations between students. Rigsby says the department prepared for people to feel safe, but student feedback is necessary. “If a student feels uncomfortable, if a student feels there is something going on that needs to be reported then absolutely report it,” Rigsby said.

Despite the nationwide attention, Donald Trump vs. Joe Biden isn’t the only election in the country. Statewide, many local elections faced off tonight and some have already been decided. State Senate Dist. 21 (All precincts reporting) Republican Senator Tom Dugger defeated Democratic party challenger Rick Dunham, by 8,178 votes. This will be senator Dugger’s second term. In his first election he defeated fellow Republican Miguel Najera 2,310 to 1,951. Duggar is an Oklahoma State graduate and has been a Stillwater resident since 1979. State House District 34 (All precincts reporting) Democratic Representative Trish Ranson defeated Republican representative candidate Aaron Means by 532 votes. This is the second time Representative Ranson has defeated Dr. Means for the Oklahoma House of

Representatives, defeating him by 1,347 votes in 2018. US Senate (1,931 of 1,948 precincts reporting) Republican senator Jim Inhofe defeated Democrat party challenger Abby Broyles, by 458,227 votes. This will be Inhofe’s 26th year in the Senate. Inhofe graduated from the University of Tulsa in 1973, earning a degree in economics. Inhofe also served in the United States Army from 1957 to 1958 and served on the Armed Services Committee in 2004. US Rep (OK 3rd) (477 of 480 precincts reporting) Republican Oklahoma state representative Frank Lucas defeated Democratic party candidate Zoe Ann Midyett by 172,547 votes. Before serving in Congress, Lucas served for five and a half years in the Oklahoma State House of Representatives. Lucas graduated from Oklahoma State University in 1982, earning a degree in agricultural economics.

Burns Hargis talks 2020 election, current state of politics Ryan Novozinsky Oklahoma State University President Burns Hargis has been around politics for many years. In 1990, he was a candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor of Oklahoma and, despite it not being a political role, has served as OSU president since 2007. The O’Colly spoke with Hargis on Monday to get his thoughts on some political topics amid the 2020 general election: Hargis predicts Oklahoma’s outcomes in the 2020 general election: “There’s a chance Oklahoma County might go Democratic, they have a Democratic congresswoman right now… The state as a whole is Republican and it’s gonna go, I’m sure

Trump will win by 20 or 25 points in the state.” Hargis’ worries on what may happen after the election: “What happens after the election and after the winner is declared is what I’m worried about. On either side there’s some people that are pretty radical. I fear might take to the streets.” Hargis on division in the country: “It’s a shame the country’s become so divided. I’m far from putting the blame on any one area. There’s people that have written a lot about the so-called elites controlling everything and those who, as one put it –– I love this term –– ‘people who shower after they work, not before they work.’ (They) felt helpless. I think that was a huge movement that was missed. Trump, to his credit, dialed in on it.” news.ed@ocolly.com

ACTIVE FAITH! (Part #1) “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for.” (Heb.11: NIV) By faith, Abel was commended by God for his offering.(fat portions from his flock) He offered the best he had to God. Cain, was unaccepted, because he offered some of the fruit of the land. In his day, Abel was sure and certain in his knowledge of God, and acted accordingly. (Gen 4:1-5) In his day Enoch believed God existed and he rewarded those who sought him. The Bible tells us that he walked with God! (Gen 5:21-24) Why did he walk with God when others did not? Because he was sure and certain about what he knew of God, and therefore sought and found God real. He had a steady fellowship with the Almighty. We can do the same in our day! It seems so easy to fall into a historical

faith, believing the truth and actions of those in the past, but lacking a present, active trust. Yet the Bible encourages us continually to pursue a God that is real today and can be found. We can offer our best to him and we can personally walk with God. Jesus died and rose again to show us that God loves us. Trusting Christ, we are free from the guilt and power of our sins, so we can fellowship and walk with God. We can offer to him our best, and we can be led by him into a continual relationship. It is very real. We can personally know him We can know his will for our lives and prepare ourselves for eternity with him. Historical faith can be very empty, passive, and unimportant. Personal, present and active faith in a real and living God, brings us to a reality and purpose with one who loves us and is faithful to us.

Humans of OSU: Election Edition By Samantha Sanchez The light of democracy shines bright above the United States as Oklahoma State students and staff share their opinions and experiences on exercising their right to vote.

“People are boarding up businesses. We are afraid there isn’t going to be a peaceful transfer of power if the current president does not win, and I am kind of nervous about current president supporters being emboldened by the possible success. So, I’m kind of nervous about more violence,” Kendra Bryan, an English and Spanish junior, said.

“It’s really important, especially this year, to show your support and make a change,” Mia Turicchi, strategic communications freshman, said.

“I just thought it was important to vote this year since there has been so much controversy about it and everything,” Kinsey Bryan, architecture sophomore, said.

“I think the key to the most peaceful route will probably be a blowout, one way or another, because if its close, one candidate or another might try to dispute the election and that can lead to a lot of problems,” Matt Harris, communications grad student, said.

“It was kind of exciting. It was a long line. I was there for about an hour, but it went pretty smoothly,” Jonathan Cooper, an agricultural business junior, said.

“I hope that my candidate wins, and everything looks brighter and everybody can kind of come to an agreement about it. Thank God we live in a country where we don’t have to agree,” Melissa Moody, Administrative Support Specialist II, said.

“I feel like not everyone gets to vote, and if we can make a difference, might as well do it,” Hadley Nixon, marketing and management junior, said.

“I think there are going to be riots for whoever wins,” Emma Caldwell, exercise science freshman, said.

Gundy talks turnovers By Adam Engel

Another full week of Big 12 football is in the rearview mirror as all teams have hit the halfway point of the season. The conference’s coaches spoke on a teleconference Monday morning. Gundy talks turnovers One glaring difference was noticeable on the box score following OSU’s loss to Texas on Saturday. OSU turned the football over four times compared to zero turnovers for the Longhorns. Since his return from a Week 1 ankle injury, quarterback Spencer Sanders has thrown three interceptions in two ballgames. “Well, when we went back and looked at the film, we realized we got into a little bit of a perfect storm,” Gundy said. “Looking at the first turnover, Spencer Sanders needs to a better job of ball control, he was soft with the ball. On that

interception, he threw the ball behind the receiver and at that time the Texas defender was in good position.” In addition to that interception, OSU also struggled to handle the football in the loss, fumbling the ball three times. “The one area that really needs to be corrected is Spencer’s ability to be strong with the football and the exchange with the running back,” Gundy said. Will Howard’s confidence Due to a season-ending upper-body injury earlier in the season to Kansas State senior quarterback Skylar Thompson, freshman Will Howard has filled into the starting role for the Wildcats. Despite a 37-10 loss to West Virginia on Saturday in which Howard threw three interceptions and completed just over 50% of his passes, KSU head coach Chris Klieman spoke highly about his quarterback. “His confidence wasn’t shot after Saturday,” Klieman said.

“He made some mistakes and everybody else on the football team made some mistakes. I am not worried about his confidence because I am around the kid on a daily basis, and I see how he handles things and how he interacts with guys. He is a humble kid but very confident and I am not worried about Will.” WVU’s Legg assumes kicking duties Due to a leg injury suffered on Saturday, West Virginia redshirt senior kicker Evan Staley is out for the remainder of the season. “First of all, we all hurt for Evan,” WVU head coach Neal Brown said. “It was kind of a freak deal. His leg gave out on a kickoff and so it was really unfortunate. He will have surgery and I have no doubt he will bounce back.” Now, redshirt sophomore Casey Legg moves into the starting role for the Mountaineers. “Legg never played high school football and he never

kicked in a game until last season,” Brown said. “Casey played in all but four games last year so he has experience. He is well-liked and well-respected on our team, and we don’t have any question he will step in and be highly productive for us.” Campbell on Hall’s improvements After a terrific freshman season, Cyclone running back Breece Hall continues to break through as one of the nation’s best running backs. Hall’s level of production has highly increased so far with 11 rushing touchdowns in six games. “The reality is that Hall has always been very talented,” ISU head coach Matt Campbell said. “I think both the mental and physical maturity has been a difference this season so far. His growth in how he approaches his day-to-day operation is the biggest mental improvement he has made.” sports.ed@ocolly.com

Escaping a week of Scotland Soccer practice in an ice storm Ben Hutchens It is no coincidence Colin Carmichael no longer lives in his native country of Scotland. Last week, Carmichael, OSU women’s soccer coach, was asked about the ice storm that halted campus life and reminded Oklahomans what winter is like. “There’s numerous reasons I don’t live in Scotland, and that is one of them,” Carmichael said. “I’m not enjoying it one single bit.” The mid-week ice storm might have given OSU students and soccer players two much-needed snow days, but it threw a wrench into Carmichael’s preparation schedule. Usually, he gives his players an off day on Sunday, but after looking at the forecast and realizing that it was going to be miserable outside on Monday and Tuesday, Carmichael had a light practice on Sunday. On Monday, as the temperature began to drop and precipi-

tation started to accumulate, the idea of practing under a roof started to sound better and better. Carmichael opted to host practice in the Sherman E. Smith Training Center, an enclosed 92,000 square foot building on campus. “We’re really thankful that we have access to the Sherman Smith indoor center,” Carmichael said, “it’s unbelievable.” The facility is remarkable and tied for the largest building of its type in the Big 12 Conference, however, there were still some adjustments that needed to be made in order to have soccer practice. The turf field that the building’s floor is made up of is only around 60 yards wide (the length of a football field plus a few yards on either side), so Carmichael can’t run all the drills in his arsenal. But after wheeling in a couple of goals, the team can do pretty much anything they need to do to prepare for a match. “It’s awesome,” Carmichael said, “there’s not a lot of schools that have that type of facility. A lot of them have small indoor facilities that they can use, but for us to be able to basically

do a full practice and not have to adjust too much is awesome.” The biggest adjustment the soccer team has to make when going to use the facility is making sure its practice time doesn’t conflict with another OSU team’s practice. Carmichael said that usually, if he feels like his team will need the Sherman E. Smith center, he will reach out and find out what the schedule looks like ahead of time. “The coaches are actually good to work with, you know working with Mack Butler

and coach Gundy,” Carmichael said. “Since we’re in-season we get a little bit of precedence, I think. Certainly, in the winter and in the spring if softball or baseball need in there, we (give them that opportunity).” Although it was undoubtedly more bearable than practicing outdoors in freezing temperatures and sleet, there was a common sentiment among a couple of the soccer players who didn’t escape the chilly weather altogether. “It was cold… at the end of practice I was like, ‘Oh my gosh

it’s super freezing and I can’t feel my hands,’” said senior forward Gabriella Coleman. Transfer Goalkeeper Emily Plotz had her first taste of practice in the building last week. “I thought it would be a little bit warmer, but it was still pretty freezing out… I was surprised about how cold I actually was,” Plotz said. “I wasn’t really layered up the first time, and every ball that hit me hurt so much more.” sports.ed@ocolly.com
