Opposition forces close in around Libyan capital

By BORZOU DARAGAHI Los Angeles Times MCT

Smoldering unrest drew tighter around Tripoli and areas of western Libya previously under government control Thursday, the day before a planned rally in the capital against Moammar Gadhafi’s rule.

Gadhafi made another characteristically rambling address, acknowledging that the city of Zawiya 30 miles west of the capital had risen up against his 40-year-rule. Foreign residents fleeing the city emerged with grim tales of fighting in the streets.

“The situation there is very bad,” said Hassan Sheikh, 43, an Egyptian laborer among the accelerating flow of foreigners packing whatever belongings they could carry and making a break for the Tunisian border, about 120 miles from the Libyan capital.

“There is no mercy there. They killed many people.”

Inspired by movements that overthrew authoritarian rulers in neigh-

boring Egypt and Tunisia, Libyans opposed to Gadhafi have taken to the streets across the country, already gaining control of the country’s oilrich eastern areas.

Gadhafi described the young protesters who have led a movement drawing soldiers, doctors and engineers into its ranks as drug-addled disciples of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden.

“It is clear now,” he said in an interview that was telephoned in to a news program, “those who recruited our children are al-Qaida. It is bin Laden, otherwise known as international terrorism.”

The security forces seized memory cards, digital cameras, computers, memory cards and cell phone SIM cards from nearly every person leaving the country.

In Zawiya, which reportedly fell to opposition forces a day earlier, witnesses described a horrifying night of explosions and gunfire. One resident who fled said up to 20 people had been killed.

Financial aid scams on the rise, target students in need

By JAZMINN JONES Life & Style Editor J.V.Jones@iup.edu

Each year, financial aid is something that most students will need in order to pursue their college career.

According to the National Center for Education Statistics’ website (nces.ed.gov), 47 percent of undergraduates received financial aid in 2007-08, the average amount being $6,600.

With tuition on the rise at a rate of 8 percent per year, according to FinAid.org, financial assistance is very essential. Students have a number of resources to consider.

Loans, which are money borrowed that would have to be paid back starting six months after graduation, can either be distributed through the government or a private lender. A grant, a gift of money that does not have to be repaid, is usually distributed based on qualifications that a student meets.

Lastly, there are scholarships, awards based on the students’ overall performance or other factors, that are given either through the school or privately.

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid, also known as the FAFSA, is the main form that students turn to in order to receive financial aid for the school year.

With the application, the amount of financial aid that the student will receive is based on the income from both the student and the family.

While financial aid is a great route to turn to, there are bumps in the road that may claim to help you but, in reality, aim to cheat students out of their education simply for money.

According to FinAid.org, the most common types of fraud committed by applicants themselves will usually involve underreporting of income and assets and overstating the number of family members in college.

In a type of financial aid fraud victimizing students, services require a down payment in order to take part in the chance that it is offering.

According to StudentAid.ed.gov, there are several websites that offer help in filing the FAFSA for a fee. FAFSA.gov, the official FAFSA website, is scam-free and offers help at no cost to the student.

The Pell Grant, a postsecondary educational Federal grant that is contributed through the FAFSA form, has suffered a decrease of aid to students due to proposed budget cuts, causing a loss of close to $100 billion in Pell grant money and other higher education programs over a decade, according

to the PSLWeb.org.

Due to the financial aid cuts, scams continue to rise in hopes of grabbing the attention of families in desperate need of money for school.

Fortunately, there are ways to reduce the risk of fraud while applying for financial aid.

It is essential to be safe and discreet when it comes to applying for a Federal Student Aid PIN, which is an important key in filling out the FAFSA. After filling out the FAFSA, exit the application completely and close out of the Internet browser too.

Remember to never reveal personal information over the phone or the Internet unless there is a mutual contact made between the two parties.

For more information about financial aid fraud, contact the Federal Trade Commission at 1-877382-4357 or visit www.ftc.gov/scholarshipfraud.

Summer study abroad opportunities offer students the world By rose catlos Staff Writer R.V.Catlos@iup.edu

France, Germany, Mexico, Taiwan…

Where do you want to go this summer?

The Office of International Education (OIE) and several academic departments at IUP are accepting applications for 2011 summer study abroad.

A few different options exist for students seeking summer study abroad programs, including one-toone exchange, also called reciprocal programs, third-party providers and faculty-led programs.

The OIE facilitates the first two options, while the individual faculty leader facilitates the third option, said Jessica Halchack, study abroad adviser.

The OIE does more than help students find a program and travel abroad, however.

“We are here to support them when they are abroad — before, during and after,” Halchak said.

The reciprocal programs offer students the chance to study at a partner institution. Students are charged in-state tuition if they pay in-state tuition and are charged out-of state tuition if they pay out-of-state tuition at IUP, while room and board varies, Halchak said. A third-party provider program allows students to study through an IUP-approved affiliation.

These programs require a 2.5 GPA. Program length is typically three to six weeks and the application deadline is April 1.

Some of summer 2011’s reciprocal program offerings are Nancy, France; The University of Duisburg, Germany; Cholula, Mexico; and Taipei, Taiwan.

Some of the third-party providers include AustraLearn in Australia and New Zealand and Study Abroad Italy.

Amizade (Service Learning), Cultural Experience Abroad and International Student Exchange Program offer programs in various locations.

Faculty-led programs carry their own separate fees, paperwork and requirements.

Program length is two to four weeks, and the deadlines vary. Not all programs are major-specific, so interested students should check with the department’s program leader, Halchak said.

Some of the academic departments offering summer 2011 study abroad programs are art (Italy), biology (South Africa), English and journalism (England), history (Spain), human development (Greece and Italy), religious studies (Scotland), The Cook Honors College (Turkey), and Spanish (Costa Rica and Mexico).

Making the decision to study abroad is a process that requires some flexibility and adaptability on the part of the student, but one that can result in benefits for the future.

Jamie Mead (junior, anthropology)

studied in Irbid, Jordan, and knew only one other American student in the city who was not in her program. But Mead was able to develop a group of friends from Arabic-speaking countries and used other means of communication.

“In Jordan, I found that I needed to speak a lot through body language and actions since my Arabic language wasn’t so strong,” she said.

The experience gave her insight into her occupation, she said.

“I feel a lot more competent for work I may do in the future that pertains to cross-cultural peoples,” she said. “Even more importantly, my passion for working with other peoples has grown.”

In addition to university deadlines, students should allow time for travel documents such as passports and visas to process, so if you are thinking about applying, get started as soon as possible.

Visit www.studentsabroad.state. gov for the most up-to-date information on visas, passports and other travel concerns.

Interested students are encouraged to attend one of the OIE’s workshops, held every Monday from 12:15 p.m. to 1 p.m. and every Tuesday from 3:30 p.m. to 4:15 p.m., with no workshops during spring break.

Soon, students will be able to apply for study abroad fully online. The OIE website is in the process of becoming tied to the banner system, Halchak said.

Apple offers updated MacBook Pro By david sarno Los Angeles Times MCT

Apple Inc. has rolled out new, faster versions of its popular line of MacBook Pro laptops, the familiar gray notebook computers frequently seen in coffee bars and on television shows.

The latest line of portable computers, which Apple updates annually, include speedier processors, a higher-resolution built-in camera for video chatting and a new data transfer technology called Thunderbolt.

Laptops account for about 14 percent of Apple’s quarterly sales.

Thunderbolt is a USB-like connector that can send data between devices at a rate of 10 gigabytes per second. By comparison, USB 2.0 transfers data at about 480 megabytes per second. Intel, which developed the technology with input from Apple, said a full-length high-definition movie can be transferred in less than 30 seconds and one-year’s worth of MP3 music can be downloaded in 10 minutes.

All the new laptops will come with a built-in front-facing camera above the screen. They are dubbed FaceTime HD cameras, after Apple’s proprietary software that allows users of its computers and mobile devices to conduct video chats over a Wi-Fi connection.

The new MacBook Pros, now on sale, start at $1,199 for the version with the 13-inch screen, $1,799 for

Dreamstime Prices of the new MacBook range from $1,199 to $2,499.

the 15-inch model and $2,499 for the 17-inch version.

Apple also announced an upcoming version of its computer operating system, called OS X, that the company said was inspired by the look and feel of software on its iPad tablet computer.

The new version of the operating system, which Apple has dubbed Lion, will be available to consumers this summer, the company said.

In addition to a variety of TV shows, Apple’s products appeared in 33 percent of the top 100 movies at the U.S. box office in 2010, according to a report released by market research website Brandchannel on Tuesday. The site gave Apple its 2010 Award for Overall Product Placement.

98 confirmed dead in New Zealand earthquake By ian llewellyn DPA MCT

The confirmed death toll from the Christchurch earthquake has risen to 98, New Zealand Prime Minister John Key said on Thursday.

Police are yet to release details of the missing, but Key said in an interview on Television New Zealand that there were 226 people who police feared were trapped in buildings or crushed beneath debris.

It remained unclear how many of the often unidentified bodies had been listed as missing.

“The indications we’re getting from the police [...] is that the loss of life could be more substantial than anyone of us had ever dreamed of,” Key said.

The district commander of Canterbury police said it was believed that the 98 recovered bodies would be included in the list of 226 people police said were missing.

“We’re gravely concerned about those individuals,” Superintendent Dave Cliff said, warning the numbers may yet grow. Cliff said a police sergeant has witnessed the collapse of the city cathedral’s spire and had estimated between 16 and 22 people had been crushed.

Amongst those feared dead are up to 120 people in the ruins of the Canterbury Television Building, which caught on fire after it was flattened by the 6.3-magnitude quake Tuesday.

An English-language school in the building released a list of almost 100 staff and students who were missing or presumed to be inside. Fifteen staff of the television stations also failed to make it out.

The school was attended by students from China, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines and Japan.

A Japanese search and rescue team was at work on that site, while other international teams were helping in other parts of the city.

“It is a rescue operation at this point,” Cliff said. “If people are alive and trapped we are doing everything possible.”

He confirmed no one had been found alive since Wednesday afternoon. Police hoped to release a detailed missing persons list later in the day. The names of some of the dead would also be released.

Police Minister Judith Collins said the conditions at some of the devastated buildings were “horrendous” and there had been many acts of bravery by the rescue teams.

Asked if there was any truth to rumors of life in some of the buildings, Collins said: “Not where I was.”

Health authorities said Thursday morning that 164 people had been admitted to hospitals, most with serious injuries, 431 treated at the emergency department and up to 2,000 seen for minor injuries at medical centers around the city.

Many people were still seeking to leave the city as inspectors began to

examine the safety of the remaining homes and other buildings amid several aftershocks.

Eighty percent of Christchurch had no connection to the main water supply, 60 percent had no power, and other infrastructure such as sewer systems and gas supplies remained severely disrupted.

On Wednesday, the New Zealand government declared a national state of emergency for the first time in the country’s history.

The government was beginning to look at financial costs, with Key not ruling out total damage costing up to 12 billion U.S. dollars. Key said he hoped to announce an initial finance assistance package to Christchurch businesses and residents on Monday.

Wisconsin governor falls for fake phone call Everyone knows that money buys political access.

But in Wisconsin, apparently all you have to do to get the governor on the horn is just pretend to be a super-rich contributor — who also happens to be aiding his fight against unions — and he’ll be happy to take your call.

And bend your ear for 20 minutes, too.

That’s what Republican Gov. Scott Walker did Wednesday when he thought that Kansas billionaire industrialist David Koch was on the line to talk about Walker’s fight to wring budget concessions from the state’s public employees.

A key trigger for more than a week of protests has been Walker’s insistence that the unions, which have agreed to other concessions, throw in the towel on their right to collective bargaining.

It’s made him an instant folk hero to the right and villain on the left.

But it wasn’t Koch on the phone. It was actually writer Ian Murphy, of a liberal online news site, pretending to be Koch. But that didn’t stop Walker from explaining to “Koch” how his anti-union battle needed to spread to Ohio, Michigan, Florida and other states.

“You’re the first domino,” Murphy-as-Koch said.

“Yep, this is our moment,” Walker replied.

A spokesman for Koch Industries didn’t return calls seeking comment.

David Koch and his brother, Charles, run Koch Industries, a conglomerate based in Wichita, Kan. They’re a major force behind the tea party movement and donate money to conservative causes and candidates, including Walker’s

own election last fall.

The online news site, buffalobeast.com, posted the conversation and it soon went viral. The site subsequently went offline, possibly due to the crush of people trying to fathom how someone was able to so easily dupe the governor and his staff.

“The governor takes many calls every day,” Walker spokesman Cullen Werwie said in a statement.

At a news conference, Walker said, “The things I said are the things I’ve said publicly all the time.”

In their conversation, Walker told his caller about possible strategies under discussion to lure Democratic lawmakers back to Madison. They fled to Illinois last week to thwart Republican efforts to gain a quorum and vote on Walker’s plans, which would easily pass because his party holds the majority.

One of the ideas Walker told the fake David Koch was to force the Democrats in exile to return to Wisconsin to get their paychecks, which are otherwise directly deposited in their bank accounts.

Besides aiding Walker’s election, conservative business groups tied to the Kochs have paid for $320,000 in ads pushing his budget legislation. The Kochs also have business interests in Wisconsin and recently set up a lobbying office in the capital.

Charles Marsh, who teaches journalism ethics at the University of Kansas, said that the website’s tactic “certainly doesn’t fall into any time-tested concept of what a true journalist is.”

But Marsh said, “I acknowledge my own hypocrisy. I think it’s disgraceful and shameful. I would fire any reporter who did that. But I can’t wait to read what the governor said.”

For-profits have some explaining editorial St. Louis Post-Dispatch MCT

For-profit colleges and universities are higher education’s boom sector. From 1999 through 2009, student enrollment — either by mail, online or at various office-park “campuses” — skyrocketed 236 percent.

That’s 10 times the rate of growth at public colleges and universities and non-profit private institutions.

The schools’ bottom lines have grown just as fat, with federal student aid the source of roughly twothirds of their revenue. During the 2008-2009 school year, they soaked up about $20 billion in student loans and $4.31 billion in Pell Grants.

For-profits boast that they provide access to higher education to low-income and minority students.

Indeed, about 20 percent of black students and nearly one of every four Pell Grant recipients enroll in a for-profit college or university.

But the educational benefits to students are not clear, and taxpayers

deserve an explanation.

The Education Trust, an advocacy group for low-income students funded by major philanthropies, has assembled troubling data. The graduation rate for first-time, full-time students seeking four-year bachelor’s degrees is just 22 percent. The University of Phoenix, the nation’s largest for-profit college, had a 9 percent graduation rate for these students in 2008. The rate at its St. Louis campus was 6 percent.

Two-year programs in which students receive associates’ degrees or certificates have higher completion rates. But these programs aren’t cheap, and they are marketed aggressively.

The College Board, a non-profit group that helps students access higher education, says the average annual cost of tuition and fees at a community college is $2,700. It is $7,605 at a public four-year college.

It is $27,200 at a private four-year college. And it is $13,900 at a forprofit college.

For-profit university students end up carrying huge debt loads, and they account for more than 40

percent of all federal student loan defaults even though they make up only 12 percent of enrollments and 24 percent of federal loan dollars.

The U.S. Department of Education has proposed rules that would protect taxpayers and students. They are called “gainful employment” regulations. Their purpose is to hold schools accountable for the supposed economic benefits of their career-training programs.

Under the proposed rules, schools that saddle students with excessive debt and have loan repayment rates below 35 percent no longer would be supported with Pell Grants and Stafford Loans.

But this publicly subsidized multibillion industry has plenty of political clout. On Friday, the Republicancontrolled House of Representatives (with the help of some Democratic members) voted to defund any attempt to implement, administer or enforce the Department of Education’s proposed rule.

This cynical vote is the “job killer.”

It dooms students to heavy debt for training that provides dubious prospects of gainful employment.

q Fouling the Clean Air Act

By Dan becker and James gerstanzeng McClatchy-Tribune News Service MCT

Largely hidden in its attack on the federal budget, the House of Representatives has approved a key Republican campaign promise to big business: Protecting it from what the new majority argues are the handcuffs of environmental safeguards.

The Republicans would cuff the Environmental Protection Agency instead.

If they prevail in the Senate and overcome a White House veto, they would hobble the Clean Air Act, probably the most successful U.S. law protecting health and the environment, and threaten the authority of California and several other states to use it to fight global warming and other pollution.

The Clean Air Act has meant fewer hospitalizations and missed work days, saving a projected $2 trillion in 2020 alone by reducing asthma, chronic bronchitis and premature deaths from lung disease. Now, given the go-ahead by the Supreme Court, EPA is using it to cut back on carbondioxide pollution, the prime culprit behind our changing climate.

Think of the law as the legal weapon — passed by an overwhelming bipartisan congressional majority, signed by President Richard M. Nixon, approved by the highest court — that has allowed every president beginning with Nixon to fight some of the nation’s most difficult health and environmental challenges. Using the law to reduce carbon dioxide will bring us solutions that people like: hybrid and other high-tech gas-sipping cars that cut our gasoline bills more than the improved technology costs.

But some of the nation’s biggest polluters have teamed up with the Republicans to try to stop progress — just as more evidence documents global warming: The 10 warmest years on record have all been since 1998; last year was tied with 2005 as the hottest.

Together, they would turn the House into a special-interest court of appeals to circumvent the 2007 Supreme Court ruling that orders EPA to fight global warming. They would limit the clean air law’s provisions protecting us from power plant pollution and block several states from

adopting tougher pollution controls than the federal government.

California has been a leader in setting air pollution and emissions standards under Clean Air Act provisions.

Its efforts to set strong standards have been joined by 13 other states, among them New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Washington.

Now, automakers are demanding that politicians — not scientists — write the clean car standards intended to reduce carbon-dioxide pollution.

The automakers supported a 5 percent annual reduction in emissions that will get us to 35.5 mpg in 2016 — the biggest step we’ve taken against global warming. They say they cannot cut emissions 6 percent the next year.

These are the same people who said they could not equip cars with seat belts, air bags or catalytic converters.

But, using continuously variable transmissions, low-friction lubricants, improved engines, aerodynamic designs, high-strength light-weight steel and producing the first electric vehicles, they can deliver a fleet that will achieve 62 mpg, cut our emissions by 6 percent per year and help us cut our oil consumption in half by 2030, saving us money at the pump.

Sure, they don’t want to. But they can. If you don’t believe us, listen to Toyota.

Whatever goal the administration sets, “Toyota will be prepared to meet,” the automaker’s vice president for product communications, Jim Colon, said. “If it’s 62 miles a gallon, we’ll be able to achieve that.”

Even General Motors, famously late to the innovation starting line, says it will join the race — if ordered.

Mark Reuss, the company’s top North American executive, said that while he was concerned about meeting a 62 mpg standard, “I think the industry can do anything it wants when it puts its mind to it. [...] We’re going to make a plan that’s profitable with cars and trucks that people want.”

That would be a welcome epiphany for a company that stayed afloat with the help of a $50 billion bailout from America’s taxpayers.

With the planet growing warmer, gas prices climbing and new turmoil in the Middle East threatening our energy security, we can’t afford to allow polluters to team up with the new House leadership to deny us progress.

As Mark Twain said, “Denial ain’t just a river in Egypt.”

Opinion

q Penn editorial

Securing financial aid: it works on two levels We all know to be wary of those e-mails from Kenyan lotteries or the executors of the wills of deceased family members with unfamiliar names.

Our inboxes have been flooded with warnings about scams almost as frequently as scam e-mails themselves. Do not to reply to these queries, which often want you to hand over personal information like bank account information or social security numbers which is apparently the only way to receive a large sum of money that’s supposedly rightfully yours; don’t give out your IUP account information. The same run down shows up every semester.

But what might be the most dangerous scams are those we never see coming. As students and their families face difficult economic times, the search for scholarships, grants and other kinds of financial aid, it might be tempting to go for a deal that seems too good to be true.

The smartest thing to do is to not get itchy trigger finger, toss in all of your private information and click submit. Check the credentials of every website that wants information. If you don’t see the little secure lock symbol in the bottom of your browser, in the address line, or an https:// in the URL, do not input any information.

It’s also a good idea to check and see if websites share your information with third parties. The site you originally submit to might not be predatory, but they could share details either inadvertently or advertently with another company that is out to attempt to shake students down.

Cross reference any websites or services with government websites that provide information about financial aid, too. A good rule of thumb is that if a site asks you for money in order to receive more money, it’s probably a scam.

Scams are always bad, but when they target people who are trying to find ways to pay for school, it seems especially disgusting. If students had the money to pay for school in the first place, they wouldn’t be scouring the Web to find any way possible to fund their studies.

Gun safety, Texas style

By Bill McKibben Los Angeles Times MCT

When a 19-year-old sophomore named Colton Tooley opened fire with an assault rifle last fall near the UT Tower at the University of Texas, it seemed to some like a horrible rerun: In 1966, the tower was the site of what was then the worst campus shooting in U.S. history, when a sniper firing from the top of the structure killed 14 people. In some states, this kind of history might lead to government action to protect students from gun violence. But not in Texas.

Campuses are currently weaponsfree zones in Texas. But the famously gun-friendly state, where many lawmakers carry concealed firearms inside the Capitol building, seems poised to pass a bill to let college students and professors do the same.

The bill from Republican state Sen. Jeff Wentworth, which would allow

the carrying of concealed weapons on college campuses by those with permits to do so, was passed by the Senate in 2009 but languished in the House. It has a far better chance this time around because more than half the members of the House have signed on as co-authors of a version of the bill.

It isn’t very hard to get a concealed-weapons permit in Texas; anyone over 21 who passes a computerized background check and completes a 10-hour course is eligible. Wentworth thinks his bill would actually make college students and faculty safer, because armed students could return fire in the event a crazed gunman started shooting at them. Gun enthusiasts in Texas and other states believe that if students at Virginia Tech had been armed in 2007, they could have stopped Seung-hui Cho’s rampage before it ended in the loss of 33 lives. They may even be right, but they’re ignoring the other risks posed by gun proliferation.

A student firing back at a gunman in a crowded classroom might pose as much of a risk to his fellow students as the assailant. Police don’t like liberal gun-carry laws because they endanger officers and create confusion: When a lot of people are waving guns around at a crime scene, it’s impossible to tell the good guys from the bad guys. College students, many of whom are coming to terms with the pressures of romantic entanglements and academic expectations, also tend to abuse alcohol and drugs.

Adding firearms to this volatile mix is a spectacularly bad idea; guns are indeed tools of self-defense, but they’re also tools of suicide, accidental shootings, intimidation and murder.

Tooley’s only victim was himself.

Armed students wouldn’t have produced a happier outcome, nor would they have been likely to stop 1966 sniper Charles Whitman. But they could do a lot of damage to themselves and their peers.

Student organization puts knowledge of Christianity to test By keith vislay

By ELIZABETH WELLINGTON

Staff Writer K.D.Vislay@iup.edu

How many disciples did Jesus have?

What is Saul’s given name? Do you know the answers to these questions?

If so, Christian Quiz Nite is the place for you.

Wednesday night kicked off the inaugural session of Christian Quiz Nite in the Delaware room at the HUB. Teams of four competed against each other to determine who would stand atop the mountain of knowledge at the end of the night.

The competition utilized questions projected at the front of the room, and each team had 60 seconds to deliberate amongst themselves to determine an answer.

After a minute of frantically flipping through Bibles and searching for the solution, each team scrawled its answer on a quiz sheet and anxiously awaited the next question.

The questions were organized in three tiers of difficulty.

The first round consisted of general knowledge questions, which anyone should ideally be able to answer.

The teams had no problem remembering how God created Eve or where Jesus was born.

Once the 10 general knowledge questions had been covered, the ante was upped in the next two rounds, which dealt with a specific category.

The category for the second round was divided into two sections: Relatives and Other Names, with five questions devoted to each section.

Fingers were burning in this round as contestants hunted to find out whose wife was turned into a pillar of salt and who King Solomon’s father was.

The third round was a crescendo

Frumpy is new funky style of fashion The Philadelphia Inquirer MCT

Dreamstime

of ruffling pages.

The category for this final round was also split into two sections.

Miracles covered the first five questions, and praise finished up the last five.

Beads of sweat glistened on the contestants’ foreheads as they ran their fingers across line after line, looking for the reason Moses was denied entry to the Promised Land and searching for the five articles of the Armor of God. After all three rounds had elapsed, the sheets were collected and reviewed by a clergy member.

As this was taking place, the competitive facades worn by the contestants dissolved, and a wave of unity spread across the room.

Members from all of the teams stood and talked with each other over refreshments.

Vice president of Christian Quiz Night, Bret Matthews (junior, criminology), believes the social aspect of the event is extremely important.

“This is a good way to bring a lot of Christian groups together; that’s the

whole point. People should come and enjoy the night. It shows that you can be a Christian and still have fun.”

From the light-hearted joking among contestants to the music pulsating out of the speakers, Quiz Nite is fueled by fun.

President of Christian Quiz Night, Jawanda Jackson (junior, regional planning), doesn’t want people to have images of Sunday morning when you attend.

“It’s not church at all, so don’t let that scare you away,” she said. “The music we play isn’t church-like, but it is Christian. It’s a lot of fun.”

After a few moments of mingling, the points had been tallied and the results were in.

The top three teams were announced and awarded gift cards to Walmart.

Christian Quiz Night plans to meet every three weeks in the HUB Delaware Room.

The tentative day designated for meeting is Wednesday.

New York’s fall 2011 runways at Lincoln Center were packed with conservative looks of longer skirts and button—up blouses.

Tory Burch led the pack with a series of plaid, polka—dot, and pleated dresses with long sleeves and high necks reminiscent of the ‘70s working girl. Designer Yoana Baraschi featured a long—sleeved tan—and—black polka—dot dress with a high neck and tie — which she called “the librarian.”

“People are finally more interested in covering up,” Baraschi said at her presentation. “We are trying to be sexy and be alluring at the same time.”

The result is going to be a fall that’s both retro and wearable.

Tailored pants will replace leggings — which will have their last hurrah this summer. Long tunics will be replaced by cardigan sweaters that stop at the hip. Glitter and shimmer will remain, but in smaller quantities on shirts and accessories — the flower on a cloche or other accent piece, for instance.

BCBG Max Azria featured three— quarter—length skirts and jumpers paired with vests and petal—thin turtlenecks.

Lela Rose focused on shifts with long sweaters and cardigans in soft watercolor prints. Her knee—length socks were an absolute hit.

Nanette Lepore sprinkled springtime shades into her tailored pieces.

But one sheer knit turquoise dress featuring ruffles down the torso was a scene—stealer.

Nicole Miller worked clever folding techniques into her dresses that had color blocks of slate blue— gray and pops of orange — very

discreet yet futuristic.

Michael Kors — an expert at making tailored looks appear feminine — experimented with color, working mauve into his mostly black and camel palette.

But the most significant change noticed on the fall runways was the menswear influence, said Constance White, a New York fashion expert whose own outfit demonstrated the latest trends: a soft tailored dress under a fur vest. “But it was very soft and streamlined.” In many cases, the menswear looks alternated with the womenswear, usually something soft and sexy. “It was about balance this season,” she said.

Why so much menswear? Experts say the male — oriented clothes help designers get more bang for their buck. Menswear’s penchant for layering and tailoring, White said, helps designers show a lot of pieces within one look.

And the pieces — except those with fur flourishes and wool — can be worn effortlessly from season to season. Plus, White said, it helps designers reach a global market because the medium weight of the fabric can work in different countries.

And then there is recession’s influence, fashion’s biggest nemesis for the last several years.

Designers, eager to keep the quality high and the prices low, all are offering pieces that have staying power.

Tailored jackets for men, and longer pleated skirts for women, can last an eternity in a wardrobe.

MCT Fashion designer Julian Chang at his boutique in Miami.

Julian Chang makes splash in fashion world By audra d.s. burch McClatchy Newspaper MCT

The table extends 20 feet through the center of tiny workroom.

It is covered by a fuchsia, turquoise and red ribbon of fabric. Books about the grand fashion houses of Azzedine Alaia, Chanel and Jean Paul Gaultier occupy the shelves in the powder room.

And the tiny staff behind the Julian Chang label hovers over sewing machines and stitches beautiful things.

Chang is in the storefront, surrounded by samples of previous collections, quietly recalling the natural birth of his eponymous label.

“My sister was a model in Lima, Peru. It was one of my first introductions to the fashion world,’’ says Chang, 33, who runs his company in the Miami Modern (MiMo) district.

“I was drawn to the energy and excitement of fashion; I knew I wanted to be a part of it and to do something creative.’’

Before his 18th birthday, Chang traded one coastal metropolis for another to pursue his dream. Fast forward a decade or so and Chang is a bonafide hit.

His label, a modern cocktail of effortless sophistication and glamour, sells in 1,200 boutiques from Miami to Chicago to Lima. He owns showrooms in Miami.

Chang’s collections have been celebrated in the glossies too, including People, Vogue en Espanol, Women’s Wear Daily and a slew of Miami mags.

His ready—to—wear collection won top honors at 2010 Miami International Fashion Week.

His brand, launched in a Miami Beach condo, is built on modern silhouettes, texture and details.

The fall runway 2010 collection was a nod to the crisp power of black and white, dressed in ruffles, shimmering

embellishments and a hint of lace.

“My inspiration usually comes from textiles and colors,” he says.

“The city’s energy and sexiness influences my designs.”

Chang, of Peruvian—Chinese descent, grew up in Lima with four sisters.

His parents owned a manufacturing company. Since he was 8, Chang has been enamored with paint. “I loved abstracts, and I would paint on everything, on the walls, on the floor.’’

His interest in art soon gave way to fashion, and he set his sights on launching a career in Miami.

Chang graduated from the Miami International University of Art & Design, where the faculty remembers him as a passionate, disciplined student — and the winner of several awards.

“He was a standout student. I never doubted he would become a designer.

Julian was always working on his garments, always entering contests, always helping backstage at shows,” says Charlene Parsons, chair of the university’s Fashion Merchandising, Fashion Design and Accessory Design program. “He has an eye for trends. I still remember an incredible gray wool dress he made. It was fitted, very couture.”

After school, Chang worked for Tail, an upscale menswear company.

In 2002, he struck out on his own, blending his childhood art experiences, exposure to the modeling industry and formal training. Instead of heading to New York, Chang settled in Miami, where he believed he could help shape a burgeoning fashion movement that drew from the diverse tapestry of South Florida.

Soon, he had moved the business to a retail shop, part of Miami’s upper eastside.

“I really like this area because it feels like a neighborhood,” Chang says. “It has a lot of character. You can feel the changes.”

Fantasy Web personas may represent real life

By LISA M. KRIEGER San Jose Mercury News MCT

Every night, as our families slumber, many of us switch on a computer — and turn into someone else.

We may be sexy, smart and social.

Or impulsive, lured by a “Buy Now!” button. Or an instant expert, thanks to Google. Or impatient, irresponsible, entitled or unfocused.

But Elias Aboujaoude’s “Virtually You: The Dangerous Powers of the E-Personality” explores the Internet’s psychological impact — and asserts that our online traits are unconsciously being imported into our offline lives.

He recounts the horrifying tale of Abraham Biggs, 19, a troubled college student in Pembroke Pines, Fla., who called online message boards “a family to me.”

But when Biggs decided to commit suicide by drug overdose, and linked his blog to a video-streaming Web site, the Internet audience turned predatory. Rather than helping, viewers urged him on, calling him a coward and using gay slurs and worse.

Aboujaoude also tells the tales of people like “Liz,” who quit saving for retirement when she discovered Buy. com; “Richard,” who could drive right past a casino but maxed out his credit cards on online Texas Hold ‘em games; and “Laurie,” a successful executive recruiter whose e-mails nonetheless showed an utter lack of linear thinking, scaring away friends.

The book is most effective when Aboujaoude uses his psychiatric insights to describe the five forces that assert themselves online: aggression, narcissism, grandiosity, immaturity and impulsivity.

Take aggression, as witnessed in the Biggs tragedy. Humans evolved to recognize face-to-face cues. But on the Internet, we lack direct access to one another’s emotions and so don’t

Page 12 • Friday, February 25, 2011 • www.thepenn.org

feel the pain we may be inflicting, he writes. We feel fewer inhibitions.

Virtual voices are bolder. Blog entries show exaggerated self-confidence.

It’s easier to bully. And aggressors can stay anonymous.

Aboujaoude, a psychiatrist at the Stanford School of Medicine, draws on clinical work and personal experience, as well as research into the fields of linguistics, neuroscience, sociology, psychoanalysis and philosophy. As director of the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Clinic and the Impulse Control Disorders Clinic, he concedes that computers are essential to modern life. But he cautions about the unintended, less obvious consequences of life online, warning that virtual technologies are reshaping our inner universe and may be remapping our brains.

Aboujaoude grew interested in the personal impact of the Internet when he started to see a small but growing number of habitual Internet users visiting his clinics. Author of the book “Compulsive Acts: A Psychiatrist’s Tales of Ritual and Obsession” and coauthor of the academic book “Impulse Control Disorders,” he is best known for his 2006 survey of what is thought to have been the first large-scale look at excessive Internet use.

In an interview, he says, “I have been observing the Internet, up close and personal, for a very long time.

It made me want to understand better: What does it mean to go online? What’s it mean, at the level of our identity, our psychology, to spend as much time (online) as we do?”

We’re all susceptible, he believes.

“It’s very common, although every one of us falls on a different part of the spectrum,” he says. “There is a myth out there that you can spend a lot of time online, then act like a model of perfect behavior when you log off. We’re not that good at compartmentalizing.”

‘Evidence, A Dance Company’ performs

How to make fashion fun, yet flirtatious By jenn harris Los Angeles Times MCT

Shane Dreistadt/The Penn Joel Sule Adams, Otis Donovan Herring, Waldean Nelson and Ronald K. Brown, artistic director of “Evidence, A Dance Company” perform a dance for the first segment, “Two-Year Old Gentlemen,” inspired by Brown’s 2-year-old nephew and grandfather.

Joy Bryant is that rare breed of fashion model-turned-actress who has become a successful film star.

The 34-year-old has appeared alongside Denzel Washington in “Antwone Fisher,” Kate Hudson in “The Skeleton Key” and Jessica Alba in “Honey.”

As a model, Bryant has appeared in ad campaigns for Gap, Polo Ralph Lauren and Cover Girl, modeled in the Victoria’s Secret catalog and snagged a Teen Vogue magazine cover.

Although Bryant may have made it as an actress, currently starring as Jasmine Trussell on NBC’s “Parenthood,” it’s clear that when she dresses for events she hasn’t forgotten her roots in fashion.

During an appearance at the Essence Black Women in Music event

in February, Bryant looked fun and flirty in a floral print dress and black leggings. She toughened up the girly dress with a military-style jacket and dark grayish-brown ankle boots that were just a tad rugged. Her crossbody brown bag with fringe gave her a little hippy-chic vibe.

With spring fast approaching, a floral print dress is the perfect way to escape the dark, muted colors of winter.

There are many varieties available in terms of colors and print size, but Bryant’s choice of a dress with a smaller-size print allowed her to layer other pieces without clashing.

For a floral print dress that can easily go from daytime shopping to a night out with friends, Macy’s, Forever 21 and Asos all have great finds, including: the Be Bop Dress from Macy’s for $36, Chloe Floral dress from Forever 21 for $15.80 and the Vero Moda Winter Floral Frill Sleeve dress on Asos for $39.45.

Business Twitter accounts give no promise of great customer service By bridget carey McClatchy Newspapers MCT

If you’re having trouble with your gizmo and are not pleased with the doohickey’s performance, taking your gripes to Twitter and Facebook doesn’t guarantee your issue will be resolved.

There’s a misconception about the effectiveness of this social-media tactic.

Here’s the real story: An increase in cursing and jeering about a company does not correlate to an increase in compensation from the company, nor

does it result in faster response.

And sometimes those gripes go unheard altogether.

Perhaps this misconception is a result of journalists like me jumping on Twitter trend stories like the one about some companies using it for customer service.

Allow me to take one for the team and clear things up.

Few companies have the resources to flawlessly manage social-media complaints.

Most can’t check Twitter 24/7. And sometimes, the person managing the Twitter account doesn’t have the same problem-solving authority as a

customer call center, so it takes extra time to find a fix.

Fortune magazine recently tested eight companies that offer help on Twitter and found that it wasn’t necessarily more helpful than other communication channels.

“In most cases,” Fortune reported, “the old-fashioned, often infuriating, customer service hotline was actually the fastest and most thorough means of solving a problem.”

It can take longer to get a response on Twitter since it requires a human to be monitoring any mention of the company’s name.

And it’s hard for employees to

distinguish between noise and real problems, according to Ashu Roy, CEO of eGain, a California-based software company with tools for managing online customer-service requests.

“As we got into the social channel, we found customers were struggling not just with the volume of response, but the notion that the clients have existing tools or teams to respond to customers putting comments on the social channels,” Roy said.

When you find a company representative who can help, do remember your manners — you are, after all, dealing with another human being.

Sprint spokesman John Taylor (@ jbtaylor) often deals with customer service issues through Twitter, even though his primary job is in public relations and working with the media.

He’s a familiar corporate breed on Twitter: a marketing voice turned customer service rep.

He advises others to understand the multiple roles someone like him juggles and be reasonable when trying to work out an issue online.

“You’d be surprised at how few people who use social media to get Sprint’s attention to fix an issue ever use it to say thank you once the issue is resolved,” Taylor wrote on his blog.

It’s been a year since Tracy Mourning launched a bath and body collection inspired by the many beautiful moments of womanhood.

TWM Bath & Body Ritual Collection includes Mother, Friend, Goddess, Soulmate — all elements embodied in the modern woman.

Mourning and her husband, Alonzo, recently celebrated the collection’s first anniversary.

“I have always wanted to do a collection of bath and body products that celebrated all that woman are. I wanted this line to be about rituals, about taking an extra minute or two more and doing something something special for yourself,’’ she said. “Later we added Lover and Kiss. The Lover blend was made with a man in mind. I think of it like a men’s T-shirt. It’s his, but we wear it too.’’

The six organic blends of lotions, scrubs, body washes, body scrubs and perfume oils range from $30 to $48 for individual products. Each comes with a meditation message, composed by Mourning. For example, Goddess: I am passionate, sexy and empowered.

Mother: I am a precious source of life, giving and receiving.

Mourning plans to expand the collection to include pillows and candles.

The line is available online at honeychild.net.

The Crimson Hawks will be in action 5:30 p.m. Saturday when they play host to Mercyhurst. Saturday night is Senior Night for the women, and they will play with a lot of passion.

I think that when it comes to this Crimson Hawk basketball team, there is a lot to be said about their defense.

When their defense plays well, it helps the offense out a lot. The Crimson Hawks were actually down in the first half to Lock Haven, but their good defense kept them in it, and the defense played even better in the second half.

When this team is playing good defense, they are going to be hard to beat no matter who they are playing.

The last time that these two met was back on Jan. 29, when the Crimson Hawks went up to Erie and came out with a one-point victory over the Lakers, 75-74.

I think that if the Crimson Hawks come out and play their game, which is great defense, they can pull away with an easy win.

I think that the score of the Lock Haven game Wednesday night didn’t really tell you the whole story of the game. If the Hawks would have started the game the way they started the second half, they would have been looking at another 40-point victory.

Anyone who knows sports though, knows that sometimes it takes a little bit of the game to get your offense and defense in sync and when the Crimson Hawks did that, it was all over.

The key players to watch in the upcoming game are leading scorers like sophomore forward

Penguins start to struggle

Kevin Proto/The Penn Lacey Claar (32) scored five points and had eight rebounds during the 72-52 win against Lock Haven.

Sarah Pastorek and senior guard Lacey Claar.

Claar is an outstanding guard who is deadly from behind the arc. She also is an assist machine, making everyone on her team better players.

Pastorek, on the other hand, is not only leading IUP in scoring, but she is a big part of the Crimson Hawk’s game on the boards averaging more than seven rebounds per game.

If these two do what they do best, and sophomore guard Katelyn Marshall plays defense the way she usually does, they will make

easy work of the Mercyhurst Lakes Saturday night.

Another player to watch is senior guard Eryn Withers. She is just behind Claar and Pastorek when it comes to scoring, and she can also be a deep threat. She plays great defense and is second on the team in assist.

If the Crimson Hawks go into Saturday’s game with the right attitude, play great defense and their key players show up, they will have no problem ending their season on a win.

Hawks tear up Lock Haven, 88-49

By Anthony Scherer Staff Writer A.J.Scherer@iup.edu

Chris Edwards was the hero of the night for the Crimson Hawks - at least from the fans perspective. With 1:42 left in the game, Edwards hit a free throw that made the crowd go wild.

They weren’t going wild because the Hawks were about to clinch their third-consecutive 20-win season.

They were going wild because the free throw gave the Hawks 85 points.

With the 85th point of the night all the fans in attendance were given coupons for a free slice of pizza.

That was one the highlights of the Hawks 88-49 victory against Lock Haven Wednesday evening.

The victory for the Hawks was the second in a row against Lock Haven.

The Hawks defeated Lock Haven 79-35 Monday. It was a makeup game from earlier in the season.

The victories for the Hawks set up the game with Mercyhurst on Saturday that will decide the PSAC West championship and the host of the PSAC tournament will take place next week.

Mercyhurst (20-5, 11-2) comes in losing two of their last three games.

With losses against Gannon and Slippery Rock both at home, the Hawks were able to force this division championship game.

“I don’t think our guys were worried about Mercyhurst the last three weeks,” said Head Coach Joe Lombardi.

No matter the outcome of the Mercyhurst game, the Crimson Hawks will be in front of their home fans for at least one more game. They will host either Cal U or Slippery Rock on Tuesday. The Hawks go into the Mercyhurst game trying to stand up to the high expectations that they had early in the season.

“We came out ranked No. 2 to start the season,” Lombardi said, “and everybody wanted to put us back in the championship game. Those were somewhat unfair expectations for this group of guys.”

The focus has to be on Mercyhurst before they can think about anything else the rest of the way.

“Mercyhurst, I’m sure, will be ready to play,” Lombardi said. “They’re a terrific basketball team and have a little bit of everything and not a lot of weaknesses. They’re balanced on offense and a very good defensive team, and they rebound the ball well.”

The Hawks are hoping for the same

Men’s basketball to play Mercyhurst for first place

By Anthony Pagano Staff Writer A.J.Pagano@iup.edu

Tashina Jones/The Penn Ashton Smith (30) led IUP by scoring 28 points against Lock Haven.

type of atmosphere that was there Wednesday night come Saturday.

“We’re looking forward to a full house,” said Lombardi.

The IUP men’s basketball team came into Wednesday’s game coming off a record-setting performance at Lock Haven.

They held the Lock Haven team to 35 total points, which was a record, and were coming into Wednesday night’s game with a 19-5 record overall and a 10-2 record in the division.

With a big showdown Saturday night against Mercyhurst, the Crimson Hawks needed to focus on the game in front of them Wednesday night.

It seemed like IUP was playing down to their opponent a little, but going into the half only up 30-25, I would not have wanted to be in the locker room with IUP Head Coach Joe Lombardi.

Whatever he said worked, because the Crimson Hawks came out and outscored Lock Haven in the second half, 58-24 and took the 88-49 victory.

Wednesday marked the 10th time this season that the Crimson Hawks have scored at least 80 points. Even though they have done this 10 times this season, I still think that this Crimson Hawk team gets their energy from their defense.

They unquestionably have one of the best defenses in their division.

Their next game is the biggest game

of the year for the Hawks when they play host to Mercyhurst.

The winner of Saturday night’s game will end the season first place in the division.

The last time the Crimson Hawks played Mercyhurst was back on Jan. 29 when the Hawks went to Mercyhurst and were unable to pull out the win, losing 64-61..

A lot of the Crimson Hawks stand out to me, but there are a few that are outstanding at what they do.

Senior forward Darryl Webb is averaging more than 17 points per game and more than 10 rebounds per game. Anyone who is averaging a double-double is going to be important to your team.

Another key player in Saturday’s game is junior guard Julian Sanders.

He is right behind Webb averaging more than 14 points per game and when it comes to shooting behind the arc he can flat out knock it down.

Defense is a big part of the Crimson Hawks’ game plan though and they wouldn’t be nearly as good as they are if they didn’t have defensive standouts like senior guard Kevin Stewart and junior guard Ashton Smith. Stewart leads the team with 45 steals, turning those steals into offense.

I think the combination of Webb’s presence on the glass, Sander’s 3-point shooting and Stewart and Smith’s defense, this is one hard basketball team to beat.

IUP hits double-digit wins in PSAC West after 72-52 win over Lock Haven

By Vaughn Johnson Editor in Chief V.M.Johnson@iup.edu

IUP had a rare case of playing two conference games in three days, but took care of business by defeating Lock Haven, 73-32 Monday and 72-52 Wednesday.

IUP (18-7,10-3) went into Lock Haven (11-13, 4-9) Monday night fuming from its surprising 63-60 loss to Clarion Feb. 19, easily handling the Bald Eagles.

The Hawks held a double-digit advantage for all but 5:39 of the game. The game Wednesday night at Memorial Field House was bit of a different story.

Lock Haven Head Coach Jennifer Smith and her much-improved squad made some adjustments and it showed.

Lock Haven kept it close with IUP for the duration of the first half and actually held a slim lead at 17-16 with 6:08 left in the half.

IUP was able to gain a 28-25 lead at intermission.

“We weren’t horrible defensively, it’s just we just weren’t making shots and it’s kind of hard to get any kind of a lead of any magnitude if you’re not making shots,” IUP Head Coach Jeff Dow said after the game.

IUP hit only 34 percent of its shots in the first half.

At the beginning of the second half, both teams came out fast and furious and each scored 11 quick points during the first five minutes of the half.

LHU took the lead twice during that span, but still found itself down three, at 37-34 with 15:37 left.

After a missed 3-pointer by LHU, IUP guard Liz Kane drove the lane, was fouled and hit the shot. She hit the free throw for the 3-point play.

Kane’s bucket and free throw sparked a 23-3 run over the next 10 minutes and proved to be a turning point in the game.

Guard Katelyn Marshall, who scored 13 of her game-high 20 points during the second half, spearheaded IUP’s assault.

“I felt the need to have to step it up and make a couple of plays for us to get started,” Marshall said.

“I think we adjusted very well,” guard Lacey Claar said. “We came out

with far more energy than we had in the first half. Our talk was so much better. We were communicating on screens and switches and we started to get stops on defense to transition into offense.”

Although IUP defeated Lock Haven by 20, the score did not indicate the intensity of the game, as the Bald Eagles played hard throughout.

“I don’t necessarily consider ourselves 41 points better than Lock Haven,” Dow said about Lock Haven playing better. “They’re a much-improved team.”

IUP will have a couple of days of rest before hosting Mercyhurst (15-13, 7-6) 5:30 p.m. Saturday at Memorial Field House in the regular season finale.

A win against the Lakers would give the Crimson Hawks the No. 2 seed in the PSAC West going into the conference tournament and a home game March 1 in the first round against more-than-likely opponent Cal U (19-6, 10-3). A loss would drop the Hawks to No. 3 and will book them a trip to Cal U for the tournament.

“Cal’s not an easy place to play and their fans always come out strong,” guard Eryn Withers said. “We want to be at our home court. We want to have our own fans. It kind of gives us the sixth man.”

IUP last played Mercyhurst Jan. 29 in Erie and escaped with a 75-74 win. The Lakers have little to play for as it knows that it will travel to Edinboro (22-3, 12-1) to open the PSAC tournament as the No. 4 seed, but will try to gain a measure of revenge against the Hawks.

Kevin Proto/The Penn Vianca Tejada (center) scored six points against Lock Haven Wednesday night.

“They’ll be tough,” Dow said of Mercyhurst. “I’m sure they haven’t forgotten the fact that we had to rally to win that game at their place.”

Mercyhurst will likely see a different IUP team this time around. It will have to deal with Withers who did not

play Jan. 29 as she was serving her suspension.

IUP will also shoot less 3-pointers as it has done lately.

During the loss to Clarion, IUP attempted 26 3-pointers. In both of the meetings against LHL, IUP

attempted 27 combined. IUP hit four of it 12 attempts Wednesday, three of which came from guard Arika Ullman.

She finished with nine points.

IUP took less 3-pointers so it could pound the ball in the paint and create easy shots and draw contact for fouls.

“That was a big point of emphasis going into the game Monday night,” Dow said. “Of course everything worked well Monday night we certainly weren’t going to change what we were doing tonight.”

IUP drove the paint and drew 23 team fouls against LHU, which resulted in 20 free throws. The officials were balanced, however, calling 21 against IUP. IUP will likely be called for more fouls Saturday when it goes up against Mercyhurst’s senior forward Amy Achesinski.

Achesinski is the PSAC’s secondleading scorer averaging 18.3 per game.

She scored 26 against IUP Jan. 29 and according to Dow, may be the second-best player in the conference behind Cal U’s Kayla Smith.

“Our guards have to do a good job pressuring the ball so she can’t get deep post-ups,” Dow said. “Our post players got to work hard so she doesn’t get a lot of shots around the rim.”

Year of the Big East

By Shannon Ryan Chicago Tribune MCT

So, this is a down year for the Big East?

The mega-conference is going to be well represented in the NCAA tournament with as many as 11 teams.

Fourth-ranked Pittsburgh has lived up to its billing and probably will be granted a No. 1 seed.

The rest of the league has been a pleasant surprise, especially with the unexpected success of Connecticut and St. John’s.

Notre Dame, Louisville, Syracuse, Georgetown and West Virginia have built impressive profiles, too, and don’t have a worry beyond tournament seeding.

Cincinnati and Marquette have different stories. Both teams have a handful of solid victories and no glaring losses.

In arguably the strongest conference in the nation, these teams have taken their lumps.

Now they need to remain on a

smooth road to earn a tournament berth.

Marquette, (16-11, 7-7), Marquette has little wiggle room. One false move and it’s off the bubble.

A victory at Connecticut on Thursday is the Golden Eagles’ best chance to impress the tourney selection committee. Providence, Cincinnati and Seton Hall provide competition that can’t be taken lightly.

The Golden Eagles have won just four of their last 10 games but have an impressive home victory against Syracuse in that span.

Cincinnati, (22-6 9-6) played a weak non-conference schedule, so they had some work to do.

Beating Georgetown on Wednesday night counts as a major task completed.

Cincinnati also has quality victories against conference foes St. John’s and Louisville and it gets another crack at the Hoyas on March 5.

A victory over Connecticut on Sunday would make Cincinnati a definite.
