Korean courses provide new opportunities

By KIMBERLY IMEL Staff Writer K.N.Imel@iup.edu

As students are working through their fall semester, programs for next year are already in the works.

The foreign languages department at IUP is making way for fourcredit Korean courses, the first of which will hopefully be offered as early as the spring 2017 semester.

Currently, Korean language studies are offered as a critical language course.

As a critical language course, the classes are only three credits and are taught by graduate students.

With the transition away from the critical language association, the course will have time to not only address Korean language, but discuss more cultural elements as well, according to Dr. Yongtaek Kim, associate professor of Japanese and Korean at IUP. The reason for the transition was a result of an increase in student demand.

More students are interested in learning Korean and, by offering the class as a four-credit course, more students have the option of taking the class, according to Kim. Because of the Korean courses’ new status, students will also have

-Bailee Gehring (junior, Asian studies) the opportunity to obtain a language certificate in Korean.

In addition to the Korean course, the foreign language department is offering a Summer Culture Tour to Korea for students interested in experiencing Korean culture firsthand.

The Summer Culture Tour to Korea is an annual summer course held for two weeks from late May to early June.

Students have the chance to travel to Korea and specific places such as Gwanghwamun Plaza, War Memorial Museum and K-POP studios.

The class is a three-credit course, which has changed from its previous six-credit status.

As a result, the cost of the program has decreased to $3,500 from its original $5,000.

The cost includes airfare, transportation, food, tuition and more.

The main objective of the program is to expose students to both

traditional and contemporary culture in Korea and broaden their perspectives or understandings of international affairs.

The program’s main purpose or importance is exemplified by previous attendees who spoke highly of the educational opportunity. Bailee Gehring (junior, Asian studies) discussed the multitude of experiences she encountered through the program.

Gehring decided to partake in the program because of her personal desire to expand her knowledge of Korean and explore the world.

October 11, 2016

“I really just hoped to test my survival abilities and gain more self-independence,” she said.

Gehring specifically expanded her understanding of Korea by analyzing cultural differences.

“I experienced huge culture differences, mostly in simple things like dining, restroom behavior and public taboos,” she said.

Not only does Gehring believe this was an important experience for herself, but but she believes it would be a beneficial opportunity for other IUP students, as well.

“It gives students a taste of study abroad and can help them

determine if international travel is possible for them,” she said.

“It also gives them a broader perspective of the world.”

Although Gehring is specifically an Asian studies major, all majors are welcome to partake in the experience.

Additionally, a strong knowledge in Korean language or culture is not a prerequisite.

Students will attend an orientation session before they depart, where they will learn the basics of Korean.

For students wary about traveling, Kim provided words of encouragement.

“I go to any places with them,” he said.

“I always supervise and protect them.”

In any case, Kim said that he hopes more students will broaden their understanding of the world or another culture by taking the Summer Culture Tour to Korea during summer 2017.

For more information on the Korean classes or Summer Culture Tour to Korea, contact Dr. Kim at yt.kim@iup.edu.

For more education abroad or summer abroad options, contact the Office of International Education at education-abroad@iup.edu or Andrew Kent at akent@iup.edu.

One wounded in second Carriage House shooting of fall semester

By STEPHANIE BACHMAN Lead News Writer S.L.Bachman2@iup.edu

One man was wounded in the knee in a shooting at about 11 p.m. Saturday evening at The Carriage House apartment complex in the 1300 block of Oakland Avenue, police said.

State troopers, IUP and Indiana Borough police responded to reports of shots fired at the apartment complex.

The victim was not an IUP student, according to the report.

According to The Indiana Gazette, 10 police vehicles arrived at the scene within minutes.

The article also said “an ambulance left the apartment building with its emergency lights flashing but without using its siren.”

The victim was flown to Conemaugh Memorial Medical Center in Johnstown for treatment for the gunshot wound, according to an article in The Pittsburgh Tribune-

Review. There was no word on the unidentified man’s condition. The shooting is still under investigation by police.

Currently, no arrests have been made in connection to the shooting and no suspect has been identified.

The IUP department of public safety sent out an email Sunday morning to all students about the shooting.

The email urged “students, faculty and staff to practice personal

safety awareness at all times,” and said “violent and dangerous situations can develop rapidly, particularly at parties or large gatherings.

“If you are present in a situation where tension between individuals or groups is present or developing and you suspect violence could happen, move to safety as quickly as possible and call the police or 9-1-1 immediately,” the email said.

This was the second shooting at The Carriage House in about a month, and the third shooting

since the start of the semester. The first shooting took place on the morning of Sept. 3.

There was also a shooting Sept.

8 at the Westgate Apartments.

The department of public safety also told students in its email that they will be updated as more information is made known.

Anyone with information related to the shooting should call Indiana Borough police at 724-349-2121 or IUP police at 724-357-2141. Reports can be confidential.

APSCUF prepares for strike, plans to vacate campus The Association of Pennsylvania State College and Univeristy Faculties, the union of faculty members and coaches at IUP, has set a date to move its on-campus office to an off-campus address, according to a press release from Dr. David Chambers, APSCUF representative.

The existing IUP APSCUF address is Room

311 on the second floor of Pratt Hall.

The new office will be in Suite 2040 in the University Square One commercial building at 1176 Grant Street.

This move will take the office from the northernmost point of campus to the southern end near Commonplace Coffeehouse and Roastery.

Police Blotter PROSTITUTION

• Todd Yarnell Jr., 19, of Homer City, was charged with patronizing a prostitute and Olivia Depaul, 20, of Blairsville, was charged with prostitution, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia at 11:29 p.m. Oct. 1 in the 1400 block of School Street, according to the Indiana Borough Police Department.

CRIMINAL MISCHIEF

• Borough police received a report that someone damaged a lamppost sometime between 10 p.m. Oct. 7 and 9 a.m. Oct. 8 in the 1200 block of School Street. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 724349-2121.

• Borough police are investigating an incident of criminal mischief that occurred at 7:38 a.m. Oct. 7 in the 00 block of North Seventh Street.

Anyone with information is asked to call police.

Movers and union members are scheduled to arrive at Pratt Hall at 10 a.m. Thursday.

The relocation is part of ongoing preparations for the faculty strike slated for Oct. 19, should the negotiations with the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education continue to lack results.

Student works in children’s center, serves IUP community

By STEPHANIE BACHMAN Lead News Writer S.L.Bachman2@iup.edu

Casey Jarding (senior, family and consumer sciences education) has earned a long list of achievements since transferring to IUP as a junior in fall 2015 that includes working at Grand Beginnings Children’s Center – West and serving as the community service chair for IUP’s Family and Consumer Sciences Education Student Association (FCSE).

Jarding is a teacher at Grand Beginnings, where she works 20 to 25 hours a week. She was able to get the position before graduating because she had previous experience working with children.

Jarding’s job entails planning activities, communicating with families and maintaining her classroom as well as other responsibilities. She does before-school care every morning and after-school care three afternoons a week, where she sometimes helps the children with their homework.

Jarding shared her thoughts on the job and how it relates to her plans for after graduation.

“I love my job and I have a wonderful group of co-workers who truly love the children they care for,” Jarding said. “I am very blessed.”

“After graduating college this coming May, I would like to be a family and consumer science teacher at a middle school or high school or work in the cooperative extension service. My current job has given me experience working with students and families and it has made me better prepared to teach subjects such as child development.”

FCSE is a student organization aimed at majors or people with an interest in family and consumer science education. The club helps

This semester, Jarding is helping the club to make sensory blankets for the elderly. Last April, they also hosted the Pennsylvania Association of Family and Consumer Sciences Conference.

Jarding also has a minor in child development and family relations.

In addition to her teaching job and role with FCSE, she is a member of Kappa Delta Pi International Honor Society in Education, the Golden Key International Honor Society and the National Honor Society of Leadership and Success.

In November 2015, Jarding was also one of five students in the nation to receive a scholarship from the National Association of Teachers of Family Consumer Science Education. Additionally, she received the Eleanor M. Gallati Scholarship from IUP and was a Coca-Cola Leader of Promise.

Dr. Nichol Murray has taught Jarding in three different courses while at IUP and will be Jarding’s university supervisor for her student teaching experience. Murray has worked closely with Jarding since she came to IUP, including serving as co-adviser for FCSE. “[Jarding] is a standout student who goes above and beyond in everything that she does,” Murray said. “[Jarding] is dependable and always prepared. She is involved in her future profession, in the community and in campus activities.

Jarding offered advice to other undergraduate students at IUP, especially students who want to do everything.

“Remember that quality is more important than quantity,” Jarding said. “I am notorious for trying to do everything, and I know that many other motivated college students have the same habit.

“You are only one person. It is important to serve the local community, invest in yourself, and to be a part of something that you are passionate about. It is also important to take care of yourself.

Getting involved in a few things that you really love and excelling in those endeavors is better than getting involved in so many things that you don’t have the time to excel in anything.”

LGBTQ program to celebrate National Coming Out Week

By STEPHANIE BACHMAN Lead News Writer S.L.Bachman2@iup.edu

The new LGBTQ studies program is celebrating National Coming Out Day from noon to 3 p.m.

Tuesday in the Oak Grove, as well as hosting a discussion panel about people’s experiences coming out in rural Pennsylvania from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Thursday in Room B-10 of the Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) building.

Tuesday’s events consist of an interactive display to let students know about resources at IUP and in the community. It will also be promoting the new LGBTQ studies minor. Representatives from various campus organizations will be present to answer students’ questions.

Also, students will be able to

These events are opportunities... to demonstrate support of the LGBTQ community.

take their picture with a door to symbolize “coming out” in order to either share one’s own identity or show support for fellow LGBTQ students, faculty and staff.

In case of rain, the display will be moved to the atrium of the HSS building.

“The LGBTQ studies program is hosting these events because we think that it is important to raise the visibility of LGBTQ experiences on campus,” said Dr. Michelle Sandhoff, coordinator for the LGBTQ studies minor.

This week is National Coming Out Week, which is meant to encourage those who have faced shame or prejudice due to their statuses in the LGBTQIA community.

“These events are opportunities for students, faculty, staff and administrators to demonstrate support of the IUP LGBTQ community,” Sandhoff said. “We hope that the IUP community will be

encouraged by these events to learn more about the experiences of LGBTQ people on campus and to share their own experiences and support via social media.”

Thursday panel’s will consist of students, faculty, alum and community members who are representing a variety of different sexual, romantic and gender identities.

Dr. Yaw Asamoah, dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, will introduce the panel.

In addition to sharing personal stories, panel members will discuss the importance of telling such stories especially in places like rural Pennsylvania.

Following the panel, Pride Alliance, a student organization focused on providing information and support regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation, will hold its weekly meeting in the Hadley Union Building.

“The panel will be a great opportunity to hear about diverse experiences and to consider how the local context shapes these experiences and what friends, family and community members can do to support the local LGBTQ community.” Sandhoff said.

“IUP has been ranked among the least-friendly universities for LGBTQ students. We believe that this does not fairly represent the

campus community, and we want to encourage students, faculty, staff and administrators to show their commitment to listening to the experiences of LGBTQ community members while demonstrating that our campus community is committed to diversity.”

Sandhoff mentioned why the LGBTQ studies program is hosting the events and the importance behind them.

“In addition to serving as a celebration of the IUP LGBTQ community, these events are also a celebration of the new LGBTQ studies program.

“We want to let students across campus and across majors know about this wonderful new program.

The minor is designed to complement a student’s major and help prepare students for the diversity they will encounter when they enter the workforce, whether they plan to work in business, human services, medicine, the military, science or any other field.”

In addition to the events sponsored by the LGBTQ studies program, the LGBT Film Festival is going on through October.

There is a free film screening of different movies related to the LGBT community at 6 p.m. every Sunday in the Stouffer Hall auditorium.

OPINION

EDITORIAL

Trump’s apology for ‘locker room talk’ is rape culture in a nutshell Donald Trump’s lust for attention hasn’t been a secret throughout his campaign.

The candidate has mocked the disabled, alleged that certain ethnic or religious groups are murderers and degraded women every step of the way. However, his latest implosion has left even the staunchest Trump supporters stunned and distancing themselves from the presidential hopeful.

Even amid calling women slobs and pigs, the worst of Trump’s vindictive attitude toward women emerged Friday in an unedited 2005 conversation between Trump and former “Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush.

“Grab them by the [expletive],” Trump told Bush, explaining his “seduction style.”

“You can do anything. When you’re a star, they let you do it.”

In the clip, Trump later explained how he can’t control himself around “beautiful women.”

instead is “just the way things are.”

“Locker room behavior,” “boys will be boys” and “just the way things are” are just a few of many justifications used to perpetuate this behavior that has been exceedingly harmful to women and used to victim-blame in cases of sexual assault.

This is all bad enough for women, especially those who have experienced sexual violence, but the scope of these comments is just as harmful to men.

Trump is doing every single man a great injustice by saying that men are inherently rapists.

If this is just locker room talk, if this is just behavior that all men can empathize with or that all men have expressed, or if men are unable to control their impulses when distracted by something “beautiful,” then Trump is lowering men’s standards by reducing them to animals who can’t be held responsible for – or even control – their own actions.

Trump’s words may have been all “fun and games” to the average voter at the beginning of the election; however, the candidate has now insulted more than just a few minorities.

Trump has disrespected every voter.

“You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful. I just start kissing them,” Trump said. “It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.”

The vulgar tape and the criticism led some supporters, including Utah Gov. Gary Herbert and state Rep. Jason Chaffetz, both Republicans, to say that they can no longer support Trump for president, according to the New York Daily News.

Quite possibly the most unsettling reaction regarding the transcript was the statement Trump’s campaign issue shortly after the video was released.

“This was locker room banter, a private conversation that took place many years ago,” the statement said. “Bill Clinton has said far worse to me on the golf course – not even close. I apologize if anybody was offended.”

This comment of “locker room behavior” is remarkably similar to the age-old excuse “boys will be boys,” which was just one of many used in the case of Stanford rapist Brock Turner earlier this year.

These statements contribute to the dangerous climate of rape culture, which is defined as including “jokes, TV, music, advertising, legal jargon, laws, words and imagery that make violence against women and sexual coercion seem so normal that people believe that rape is inevitable,” according to Women Against Violence Against Women.

Rape culture is the view that rape is not a problem, but

The Legend will perform at the homecoming parade, the Crimson Huddle and the homecoming football game.

IUP marching band prepares for legendary weekend

By SAMANTHA BARNHART Editor-in-Chief S.E.Barnhart@iup.edu

IUP’s marching band isn’t called The Legend for nothing.

The Legend annually participates in the homecoming weekend’s events.

As part of the annual tradition, The Legend will perform in the Saturday morning parade, at the Crimson Huddle in the Kovalchick Convention and Athletic Complex before the game, and throughout the homecoming football game.

“We have two shows,” Alexis Hornickel (sophomore, nursing) said. “One is by the composer Sibelius, and it has ‘Pohjola’s Daughter,’ ‘Findlandia’ and the finale to

‘Symphony 5.’ The other show is by the Eagles, and we’re playing ‘Already Gone’ and ‘Desperado.’”

The Eagles’ show will be performed at halftime, and the “Amazing Grace” during the post-game.

The Legend was first formed in 1921 as a 60-piece ensemble band. Throughout the years, The Legend has undergone various changes and participated in many historical events. It became an all-male band in 1937 but reintegrated female musicians into the group within the decade. It was disbanded in 1943-44 due to World War II. The first official squad of The Legend’s majorettes was formed in 1947, according to the IUP website.

It was the official band of the U.S. Constitution bicentennial celebration in

1987, performed at halftime during Steelers games in 1960 and marched in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in 1996, according to its webpage.

Current and former members are proud of its history. To show this, The Legend alumni will return to IUP in November to play alongside current members.

“For the first time, over 100 alumni are going to come back, and they’re even going to play with us,” Hornickel said.

“Honestly, there is something incredibly special about this year's band between the work ethic, efficiency and pure love of music,” drum major Christina Maziarz (senior, biology) said. “We are very excited for homecoming and to share with the community, especially all the returning IUP and marching band alumni,

what we have been working so hard on since August.”

The band’s work ethic isn’t for the weak of heart or weak of breath, either, Maziarz said.

In August, band members rehearse from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. for eight days. During fall semester, members rehearse six hours per week, she said.

“It is an incredibly humbling experience having the opportunity to serve such a talented and passionate group as one of three drum majors, and being blessed with the chance to conduct ‘Amazing Grace,’” Maziarz said. “Every time I conduct that piece I get emotional because in that moment, the members of this band are connected to each other and to all IUP marching band members of the past.

Dr. Joren Cain to play Gorell Recital Hall

By JEREMY STOUT Staff Writer J.W.Stout@iup.edu Dr. Joren Cain, a new assistant professor in the IUP department of music, will be performing a saxophone recital at 8 p.m.

Wednesday in the Gorell Recital Hall.

Cain will be accompanied in his performance by fellow IUP staffers Dr. Jason Worzbyt, Dr. Evan Engelstad, Dr. Henry Wong Doe and Dr. Sun Min Kim. Cain developed an interest in music at a young age. He comes from a musical family, and he said can even point to the exact musician that he first became aware of.

“Both of my parents play guitar, but what really excited me about music, and jazz and saxophone in particular, was as a kid watching

‘Saturday Night Live,’” Cain said.

“There’s a saxophonist, Lenny Pickett, and he stood out to me as a kid.”

Cain says that he was also inspired by the likes of Frank Zappa and King Crimson. The albums that specifically inspired him were “Joe’s Garage” by Zappa and “In the Court of the Crimson King” by King Crimson.

“I just found some records in [my parents’] record collection and based on the album cover I was curious, and I put them on,” Cain said. “I just thought they were cool-looking album covers.”

From there, Cain said that he discovered several different musicians due to their involvement with Zappa and King Crimson.

Despite being a jazz musician, Cain is not performing any jazz

Dr. Joren Cain will perform Wednesday in the Gorell Recital Hall.

at this recital. He is instead focusing on classical music and pieces.

The pieces include the works of Dorothy Chang, Jeanine Rueff, John Anthony Lennon and Henry Brant.

Cain said that the performance will be “fairly wide-ranging,” because the saxophone was invented fairly late in the mid-19th century.

“We don’t have music for the saxophone by Mozart or

Beethoven or those composers,” Cain said. “But composers of the past 150 years or so have really embraced the saxophone.

Cain will perform a French piece unaccompanied on alto saxophone. “The French repertoire is sort of the backbone of saxophone,” Cain said.

He will also play accompanied by a bassoon and piano for a more contemporary sounding piece with two of his collegues.

Cain says a major reason for the setup is because he’s a new professor here – this is his first semester at IUP – and that he really wants to showcase his range and skill set.

“It’s been great,” Cain said of his time so far at IUP. “The students have been very excited. They’ve really motivated me.”

The Tubaphonium Ensemble will perform at 7 p.m. in DiCicco Hall, part of Cogswell Hall.

By SAMANTHA BELL Lead Culture Writer S.M.Bell@iup.edu

IUP’s Tubaphonium Ensemble is set to perform as part of OcTUBAfest at 7 p.m. Thursday in DiCicco Hall, Room 121 of Cogswell Hall. Admission is free.

The Tubaphonium Ensemble is always eager to educate and to share its musical capabilities with audience members.

“OcTUBAfest is so very exciting for us here at IUP in the tuba/ euphonium studio because it is our big chance to showcase our accomplishments and to squash social stigmas about our instruments,” Mark Yamialkowski

(senior, music education) said.

The upcoming performance will consist of several solo pieces

by Zach Collins, IUP’s associate professor of tuba and euphonium.

The series will also include solos by students, the studio quartet and the entire Tubaphonium Ensemble.

“Very few people know what is musically possible when it comes to low brass instruments like the tuba and euphonium,” Abby Weaver (senior, music education) said.

Audience members can also expect special guest and IUP alumnus Jon Wylie.

“OcTUBAfest is unique because we bring in fantastic soloists,” Yamialkowski said.

After graduating from IUP, Wylie earned his master’s in music in tuba performance from Texas Christian University in Forth Worth, Texas.

He will perform a solo tuba recital Oct. 18.

Studio quartet members are extremely enthusiastic about the upcoming performance.

“The framework of OcTUBAfest allows us to demonstrate what our instruments are capable of and make wonderful music at the same time,” Weaver said.

“I feel so fortunate for all of the opportunities that we have in our studio, but especially in OctTUBAfest since it is a celebration of our beautiful instruments,” Yamialkowski said.

University Museum to host 40th anniversary celebration gala

By ANGIE PRENCIPE Staff Writer A.V.Prencipe@iup.edu In commemoration of 40 years of art at the university, a classic blackand-white-themed celebration will take place.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the annual gala for the IUP University Museum. Each year, it is the only fundraiser held by the University Museum. This event annually funds all of the exhibits, educational programs, lecturers and conservation of artwork in the collection. All proceeds from this event have allowed the museum to survive on campus for the past 40 years.

A unique theme is selected each year for the gala. In the past, themes have included Steampunk, Your Special Island and a Venetian Ball, among many more. Guests are always encouraged to dress in costume according to the theme.

This year, a classic Black-and-White theme was selected.

Laura Krulikowski, chairperson of the public relations committee for the University Museum, says the museum was inspired for this year’s theme by a party thrown by Truman Capote, in which guests were instructed to wear black and/ or white.

Since the gala will serve as both the annual fundraiser and a celebration of the museum’s 40th anniversary, they decided to select a timeless theme to reflect the timelessness of the arts.

“Everyone would just come and not worry about whether they were going to fit the theme, but just to come to enjoy the exhibit and celebrate the museum’s 40th anniversary,” Krulikowski said.

Students and faculty will provide live entertainment. The IUP Jazz Ensemble will be performing music that is reflected by the late

1920s and early 1930s.

Kevin Eisensmith, director of the IUP Jazz Ensemble, was asked to gather the ensemble and select the music that will be performed throughout the evening. He says that he was heavily inspired by the black-and-white theme to make selections that reflect a classic style of music.

“You have grand Hollywood, sophisticated, highly decorative and ornate kind of things,” he said.

The image he conjured while making these selections came from the suave and sophisticated end of the Gatsby era and the beginnings of the swing era of music. The movie producer Busby Berkeley served as a large source of inspiration for Eisensmith.

“It’s the choreographed, very sophisticated dancers like Ester Williams, who was a dancer but also a swimmer,” he said.

The IUP Dance Theatre, directed

by Holly Boda-Sutton, will perform

The University Museum will be hosting the gala from 6 to 10 p.m. Friday.

dance numbers that are stylized similar to musical numbers. They will be elaborate and highly synchronized performances, similar to dance style famous in black-and-white film of these eras.

Eisensmith also says that the gala is a great way for the university and the community to show its support for the museum and its contributions to campus.

“It’s an opportunity to contribute to the continued support of the museum, and the music department is very happy to collaborate so that we can be a part of this event,” Eisensmith said.

Alongside the performances, the museum’s exhibition, “The Gilded Age to the Great War: Milton Bancroft and his Art,” will be on display for guests to view. This exhibit was one of the museum’s

earliest acquisitions, which is why it was selected to be displayed for this unique gala event. One of the first organizers of the museum acquired these original pieces, and the collection has been building for 40 years since.

“To celebrate the 40 years was to have an exhibit featuring one of the oldest collections,” Krulikowski said.

Anyone who has made a reservation for the event will be able to attend Friday. It will begin at 6 p.m. with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in the museum with the Bancroft exhibit. At 7 p.m., guests will move into the Blue Room for dinner, the music and dance performances and a silent auction. A live auction will take place during the evening, and will be run by professional auctioneer.

New clown-seeking club assembles at IUP

By KATIE MEST Staff Writer K.A.Mest@iup.edu Calling all adrenaline junkies and adventure-seeking clownhaters: a new club is coming to IUP. Juniors Eric Thompson (criminology) and Jason Barth (economics) recently founded a new student club, Clowning Around.

The club will meet twice a week to stay up-to-date on clown sightings near the area and devise a plan in the event of an Indiana clown sighting.

After a recent trip to Penn State to visit a friend, the two found that something had to be done about this clown situation.

“We had heard that there was a clown sighting on the Penn State campus,” Thompson said.

“We didn’t realize how into this people got until we saw the giant mob running through campus.”

Mobs formed to hunt down the clowns and rid their campuses of the side-show freaks.

Though Penn State campus police reported no official clown sightings, about 500 students rioted through campus until the early morning on a “clown hunt,” according to the Daily Collegian, Penn State’s campus newspaper.

Thompson and Barth ran around with the mob for two hours. Then Barth got the idea.

“What if a clown were to show up in Indiana?” Barth said. “We need to protect this small town from the freak show that is spreading across

the country.

“Obviously, I’m not talking about violence, and we definitely don’t want to harm the town in any way. But on the off-chance some ‘Bozo the Clown’ decides to wander near our campus, we want to be ready.”

Thompson and Barth have already gotten 50 students to verbally agree to join the club.

Administration has allowed this club to come into existence

as long as its members adhere to a set of rules, such as no public disturbances, no weapons on campus and no destruction of property.

Also, students should not create any unnecessary public panic.

This means students should not patrol around in large, intimidating numbers.

Indiana Borough police ask that any firsthand accounts of clown sightings be reported to them

immediately. Students and town members are not to take matters into their own hands, as some clown cases have turned violent.

Misunderstandings through social media have led police to believe there were no legitimate clown sightings.

Also, with Halloween approaching, police ask that students refrain from dressing up as a clown to prevent any harm to the student.

IUP football takes first loss of season in close battle at Cal U

By JOSE VILLENEUVE and SEAN FRITZ The Penn Staff the-penn@iup.edu

You win some, you lose some.

For the IUP Crimson Hawks, Saturday’s ride back to Indiana was a tough one.

After a thrilling comeback against Seton Hill FOOTBALL in its home opener, IUP traveled to California University of Pennsylvania for a matchup of undefeated Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) foes. A matchup of the two highest scoring offenses, the much-anticipated matchup lived up to the hype, with a battle that went down to the final seconds.

Early in the game, the momentum was all on Cal’s side, as they led 14-0 early in the first quarter

(IUP Athletics) IUP fell to California University of Pennsylvania in a heartbreaker Saturday night, 31-28.

after a rushing and passing touchdown. The visiting Crimson Hawks would answer quickly when quarterback Lenny Williams (redshirt sophomore, accounting) would scamper into the end zone on a 9-yard rush. Williams would later find JoJo Gause (redshirt freshman, communications media) for a 7-yard strike later in the second quarter with the extra point tying the game at 14. IUP would not be finished in the first half, though, as they would go on to score their 21st unanswered point following

a 9-play, 77-yard drive capped off by a 22-yard touchdown run by Allen Wright (junior, accounting). Cal had an answer of their own and in a hurry, leading a four-play touchdown drive, scoring with just five seconds remaining in the half to tie the game as the teams headed into the locker rooms.

Out of the break, Williams would do what he does best, and make a play with his feet as he found the end zone for his second rushing touchdown of the night late in the third quarter. Cal would

re-tie the game, this time at 28, with nine minutes remaining in the fourth, forcing the IUP offense to find a way to not only take the lead late in the fourth, but also keep it.

With Williams gone for the game because of an injury sustained earlier in the quarter, in came converted safety Mike Pietropola (sophomore, kinesiology), who has thrown a few passes in each game so far this season.

In the final series, he had multiple scrambles for 10 and 22 yards respectively, but could not find the end zone.

A 39-yard field goal from Cal gave them the eventual game-winning points with just 55 seconds left in regulation. In a last-minute attempt to tie the game, Pietropola found receiver Chris Wuestner (graduate student, business) for a first down around the Cal 31 yard line. Wuestner made an effort to get out of bounds to stop the clock, but the official ruled he was down in bounds, a controversial call which spoiled IUP’s comeback hopes once and for all. The Hawks

tried to hurry back to the line of scrimmage but the game clock had expired, giving them their first loss on the season.

“You gotta be able to come out and lead the team, and that was my goal, just lead the team to victory,” Pietropola said in a postgame interview.

Williams threw for 162 yards through the air and another 133 on the ground, combining for three touchdowns.

Running back Chris Temple (junior, accounting) led the backfield in carries for the first time this season, but Allen Wright and had the only other rushing score.

Wright also led the receivers with nine catches in the absence of Walt Pegues (junior, communications media) who was out with an injury. Pegues had his consecutive game with a reception streak snapped last week, one game away from tying the school record.

Defensively, Kevin Clarke had a team season high 16 tackles.

Steve Franco and Jordan Diven had interceptions.

IUP volleyball drops two tough weekend matchups to Mercyhurst and Gannon

By JED JOHNSON Staff Writer

J.N.Johnson3@iup.edu

The IUP Crimson Hawks were unable to improve their conference record Friday and Saturday, losing a three-set match to Mercyhurst University and a five-set match against Gannon University.

However, Crimson Hawks head coach Scott VOLLEYBALL Pennewill was able to draw a positive from the two losses.

“The positive that I took away from the weekend is [that] our roster is beginning to gain some depth,” Pennewill said. “Players are starting to make progress in practice that is now transferring onto game day.”

In Friday’s match, the Crimson Hawks were up by as much as 1813 in the first set and 16-10 in the third set, but were unable to win either of those games.

Natalie Cignetti (junior, natural sciences) and Jessica Ignace (freshman, nursing) led the Crimson Hawks in kills, with 10 and 8, respectively.

“Natalie is of course one of the best players in the conference and will be the focus of every opponent we play to stop,” Pennewill said.

“Jess is learning very well, and has stepped up as the next middle in the lineup right now.”

Ignace had only one error in the match, leaving her with a .389 hitting percentage for the game.

She was very excited about her playing opportunity this weekend.

“It was a really great experience, and I’m happy that I was able to help out my team,” Ignace said.

“I felt as if I had a really strong performance, but I wouldn’t have been able to do that without the support from both my teammates and my coaches.”

In the IUP’s Saturday afternoon match, the team was able to win the first and fourth sets, but lost the fifth set, 15-5, being out-hit .714 to -.118.

Cignetti and Lily McWilliams (senior, nutrition and dietetics) led the Crimson Hawks with 16 and 11 kills, respectively.

Lindsay Moeller (senior, early childhood and special education) recorded 46 assists, her secondmost total of the year and her highest total in five-set matches this season.

Ignace led the Crimson Hawks with five blocks. Cignetti, McWilliams and Elora Pittman (sophomore, psychology) each totaled four blocks.

IUP is fourth in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) in kills with 797, but also has the fourth-highest error total with 386.

Coach Pennewill said that having a mindful practice and making better decisions should help out with reducing errors, while maintaining a high amount of kills.

“In practice, we set up situations to replicate in games and have the players work through it,” Pennewill said.

The Crimson Hawks host Clarion University Tuesday for the annual Dig Pink Rally match, which is sponsored by the Side-Out Foundation. All proceeds will be used by the Side-Out Foundation to fund breast cancer research and provide services to breast cancer patients and their families.

Coach Pennewill has had positive experiences participating in the Dig Pink Rally.

“The Side-Out Foundation is a true leader in the field in working towards a cure for breast cancer,” Pennewill said.

“I have been working with some of the folks in company for over 10 years and they have continually been making their goals each year in raising awareness and the funds to support the research.

The Dig Pink Rally is one way we are able to bring that awareness and help support finding a cure.”

“I’m excited [to] participate in a event that will help raise money and awareness for such an important cause,” Ignace said.

The Golden Eagles and Crimson Hawks are both 4-2 in

conference play.

Coach Pennewill says that the goal to defeat Clarion is to “keep them out of system as much as possible with tough serving and lots of pace with our offense.”

“We want to make it difficult for them to get the ball to their middles and opposites to make them one dimensional,” Pennewill said.

“They have been prone to errors as well and we will have to force them to make them.”

Pennewill’s team will look to get back on track against Clarion in front of the home crowd and add to their 13-4 overall record. The Crimson Hawks are 7-3 this season at home and will try to improve on that come Wednesday night. Picking up a victory will be a good start to the week which ends in two key road matchups with Slippery Rock University and Edinboro University.

The Crimson Hawks defeated Clarion in the Dig Pink Rally last year for its first win over the Golden Eagles since 2006.

(IUP Athletics) Lindsay Moeller (senior, early childhood and special education) set the ball for teammates in Saturday’s five-set loss to Gannon in which she recorded 46 assists through all five of the sets.

MLB playoff update: Outrageous October

By DENNIS CANIZ Staff Writer

D.M.Caniz@iup.edu

The playoffs started a week ago, and 10 teams are down to eight. Let’s take a look back at the first week of October baseball.

The AL Wild Card game was a win-or-go-home matchup between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Baltimore Orioles. The game was scoreless until the second inning when Toronto's Jose Bautista hit a solo home run to put the Jays up by one until Baltimore’s Mark Trumbo hit a two-run blast to give the O’s a 2-1 lead.

Ezequiel Carrera tied it with an RBI single later in the game.

It remained tied going into the ninth when the O’s turned a huge double play to take it into extra innings. This game was settled in the bottom of the 11th with two men on base. Baltimore pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez threw a pitch down the center of the plate where Toronto slugger Edwin Encarnacion

(TNS) Toronto’s Jose Bautista (left) and Texas’ Rougned Odor (right) caused a bench-clearing brawl between their teams during a game in May.

cranked a three-run home run to win it in walk-off fashion by a score of 5-2 and send them to a meeting with the Texas Rangers in the ALDS.

The NL Wild Card game was the next day with the same winor-go-home mentality between the San Francisco Giants and New York Mets. It was a great pitching

showdown with the Giants’ Madison Bumgarner and the Mets’ Noah Syndergaard, who had a nohitter going into the sixth inning.

This game would go scoreless until the ninth when the Giants’ Conor Gillaspie hit a three-run home run to give the Giants all they would need to seal the victory and move on to face the Chicago Cubs in the NLDS. Staying with the NLDS, the Dodgers and Nationals series is tied at one win apiece. This series is turning out to be a great showcase of hitting. Both teams are pitching well, but hitting even better.

The Dodgers took Game 1 in Washington with a 4-3 win with Clayton Kershaw on the mound.

The Nats would take Game 2 with a 5-2 win and take that momentum heading into Los Angeles.

The Chicago Cubs have a 2-0 series lead on the Giants. Cubs pitcher Jon Lester had a strong outing in Game 1. The Cubs won 1-0 with a solo home run in the bottom of the eighth by Javier Baez. In Game 2, the bats seemed to come alive for both teams.

The Giants scored their two runs with smart hits and baserunning in the third inning. By this point, it was 4-2 from an eventful second

inning by Cubs pitcher Kyle Hendricks. Hendricks was hit by a ball and taken out in the fourth, bringing Travis Wood in as his replacement. Wood would go on to hit a solo home run the very next inning, making it 5-2. That would be the last run of the game, and the Cubs were able to pull off the win taking the series to San Francisco looking for the sweep in Game 3.

Back to the AL, where we already know who will be playing in the ALCS. The Blue Jays took on and swept the regular season ALleading Texas Rangers. In Game 1, the Jays won 10-1, a very dominant performance. Game 2 was much closer, with Toronto defeating the Rangers, 5-3. With the series shifting to Toronto for Game 3, Texas needed something short of a miracle that just wasn’t in the cards. Toronto took Game 3 and completed the sweep by defeating Texas in walk-off fashion yet again on a Rangers error and smart baserunning by the Jays’ Josh Donaldson.

This is the second year in a row the Blue Jays ended the Rangers’ season, eliminating them from the playoffs a season ago, also on a walk-off. They now wait to see who they will play in the ALCS. It will be between the Boston Red Sox or the Cleveland Indians, who have a shocking 2-0 series lead over the Sox. The red-hot bats of Boston that got them to the playoffs have been nowhere to be found thus far. Game 1 ended 5-4 and Game 2 was a 6-0 win by the Indians.

Cleveland took advantage of their home-field advantage in Games 1 and 2, and hope to keep their hot bats going as the series shifts to Boston.

The Red Sox, on the other hand, are really in desperate need for some magic and their hopes are that going back to Boston will give them that spark.

The Red Sox have a history of making some incredible comebacks at the historical Fenway Park in the past, and that’s just what they’ll need if they look to meet their division rival Toronto Blue Jays in the ALCS.

Brady returns for New England, picks up where he left off

By MATT STAUB Staff Writer

M.A.Staub@iup.edu

This week, Tom Brady made his much anticipated return from his controversial four-game suspension handed down by the league.

In his absence, the Patriots were able to go 3-1 while starting Jimmy Garoppolo and rookie Jacoby Brissett at quarterback.

Some wondered if Brady would have any rust having sat out the first four games. ESPN “First Take” host Max Kellerman publicly stated that he believed Tom Brady’s play would soon diminish just the way Peyton Manning’s play had.

“Tom Brady is just about done,” he said. “It could be the next game he plays, it could be a year from now, but he is going to fall off a cliff.”

Brady finished New England’s 33-13 victory over Cleveland with 406 passing yards and three touchdowns, quickly answering critics who might have doubted if he still can play at a high level.

One of the biggest matchups this week was the Atlanta Falcons’ high-powered offense versus the reigning Denver Broncos’ stifling defense. The Falcons entered the game ranking first in yards per game and points per game. The Broncos returned the majority of their defense from last year’s Super Bowl-winning team.

Their defense also features arguably the league’s best pass rusher in Von Miller. This would be a true test of the Atlanta Falcons to see if they are a legitimate playoff contender.

The Falcons jumped out to an early lead and never looked back. The offensive line seemed to control the Broncos front seven throughout the game, as Denver was only able to get one sack on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan.

Ryan appeared poised and spread the ball around to his different weapons as the Falcons marched

the ball up and down the field.

On the other side, the Broncos’ offense struggled behind rookie first-round draft pick Paxton Lynch. Lynch was making his first career start, although he did appear in last week’s game when starter Trevor Siemian went down with a shoulder injury. Lynch never seemed to looked comfortable as he was sacked six times and threw one interception. He did throw a late touchdown, but it was not enough for the Broncos to make a comeback.

The Dallas Cowboys have also had lot of offensive success being led by two rookies. Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott helped lead Dallas to their fourth-straight victory. Elliott currently leads the NFL in rushing yards, which is quite a feat for a rookie and is certainly making a case for Rookie of the Year. With Dallas’ early success without veteran quarterback Tony Romo, who has been out all season with an injury, raises the question as to whether or not they should go back to their oft-injured starter when he is ready to return.

The Pittsburgh Steelers were another team who kept their momentum rolling in Week 5, defeating the New York Jets by a score of 31-13 in Pittsburgh.

Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger picked up his stellar play right where he left off from last week’s 45-14 blowout of the Kansas City Chiefs. Roethlisberger went 34 of 47 and threw for 380 yards and four touchdowns in Saturday’s victory. Coach Mike Tomlin gave his team a chance to redeem themselves the past two weeks and it seems they’ve taken advantage of it. Pittsburgh is now 4-1 on the season and is sitting with sole possession of the division lead in the AFC North.

Teams who earned wins on Sunday also included the Lions, Colts, Titans, Redskins, Bills, Raiders, Packers and the Minnesota Vikings, who are the only undefeated team remaining.

(TNS) Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was greeted by a rather large showing of Patriots fans in his first game of the 2016 season after serving his four-game suspension.

IUP soccer hangs close early, falters late against West Chester

On Saturday afternoon, IUP hosted the undefeated, 11thranked Golden Rams of West Chester University.

IUP would be looking to keep momentum rolling coming off their 4-0 shutout victory over California University of Pennsylvania SOCCER last Wednesday.

West Chester struck first in this one with a goal in the eighth minute, jumping out to a quick 1-0 lead.

The Crimson Hawks responded to the challenge however, as McKenna Keffel (freshman, marketing) scored shortly after, which was her second goal of the season, coming in the 24th minute.

The teams entered the half locked up at 1-1, with West Chester

out-shooting IUP 6-5. IUP, who has had its offensive struggles in previous games before the game against

Cal, had to have been pleased with the shot total in the first half. Coming out of the break, the second

half of this game proved to be a completely different story as West Chester dominated the time of

possession, and out-shot IUP, 11-1.

West Chester regained control of the game in the 58th minute with a goal, then later scored a dagger for an insurance marker off a penalty kick opportunity in the 71st minute.

“Every time we lose a game it’s tough, but the girls are playing hard in every game,” coach Adel Heder said. “Our conference is one of the toughest in the nation. I think we’ll be all right for the rest of the season and I’m looking forward to the Millersville game on Saturday.”

IUP now sits at 7-5 (6-5 in PSAC), leaving them in a three-way tie alongside Gannon University and Shippensburg University. Next up for the Crimson Hawks is a road game against Millersville University at 3 p.m. Saturday.

Heder and his team will certainly be looking for a much more complete effort and get back to what they were able to do against Cal, which is control the time of possession and fire shots on net for the full 90 minutes.
