A student places their order in the Janssen Engineering Building at One World Cafe, which took over stands for Sisters’ Brew.

New coffee hits the grind One World takes over as Sisters’ Brew owners move on Ryan Locke Argoanut

After nine years of being a fixture in both the Moscow and university communities, Sisters’ Brew coffee shop will brew no more. Sisters’ Brew management closed their locations in the UI Administration Building and Janssen Engineering Building at the beginning of the year, handing the reigns to One World Cafe, another Moscow staple, Jan. 19.

Sisters’ Brew owner Gina Rich said the

business was still doing well, but she was ready to move on to other things.

“It could be really fun, but after nine years it just wasn’t challenging anymore,” Rich said. “It was kind of the same thing every day.”

Rich said one of her daughters had a baby and wants to be a stay-at-home mom, and her other daughter wants to travel, so they made the decision to close the business and each pursue their own interests.

Rich said she approached One World because she knew Sisters’ Brew had many loyal customers and she didn’t want to leave them with nothing.

She felt that One World, as another locally-owned coffee shop offering similar prod-

ucts, would be an appropriate successor.

Rich said she might do something more under the Sisters’ Brew name in the future, such as online sales of bulk coffee, but for the moment, Sisters’ Brew is saying goodbye.

“I would love to tell all of our customers and everything, thank you so much,” Rich said. “It was just wonderful, they were all great.”

Brandy Sullivan is the owner of the One World Cafe. She said the transition period onto campus was extremely quick — One World made the agreements, signed the paperwork and moved in during the first two weeks of the year.

It has been a challenge to get used to

the campus, Sullivan said. One World Cafe, founded in 2005, is a longstanding fixture of downtown Moscow, yet Sullivan said the products and services customers on campus want can be different from what customers want at the downtown location.

Sullivan said the outgoing Sisters’ Brew management was very helpful in introducing them to the campus, giving them information about their customers and what they like.

“In some ways it’s starting over, which always takes a little bit of time to sort through,” Sullivan said.

Culture through CLEO Corrin Bond Argonaut

College of Law Director of Admissions Carole Wells grew up in a large family, but growing up, nobody spoke about going to college around the dining room table.

As a result, Wells said she found that pursuing a higher education was more of a challenge for her, because unlike in the households of her peers, college was not an expectation.

Income inequality among students is one of the many gaps the University of Idaho College of Law is trying to fill with its participation in a national pilot program.

The CLEO Legally Inspired Cohort, also known as CLIC, is one of the Council on Legal Education Opportunity’s newest pilot programs aimed at helping diverse students better obtain a legal education.

“It will add diversity to our little school of

Wells said the program will help students who may encounter more disadvantages in pursuit of a legal education than their peers, whether it’s because of gender, race or social class.

The most critical year Task force recommends freshman continue to live in Greek houses Katelyn Hilsenbeck Argonaut

At universities all around the country, freshmen are given one housing option: university-provided housing.

At The University of Idaho, freshmen are able to make a decision to live in a Greek house, in university housing or in cooperative housing, such as Steel House — a choice many consider unique.

The Student Life Task Force recommended UI continue to offer first-year students the option to live in Greek houses in a memo Jan. 14.

“A lot of the first year is leaving home for the first time,” said ASUI Sen. McKenzie MacDonald, who is a member of the task force. “A lot of the first year is where you live.”

A different worldview Study Abroad Fair opens students’ eyes to options for going abroad Marisa Casella Argonaut

Tan Jezz traveled over 8,000 miles in order to participate in the University of Idaho’s study abroad program.

She said she transferred to the University of Idaho from Malaysia in hopes of studying abroad.

“It’s easier access to go through the states first,” Jezz said.

Jezz is a junior majoring in Spanish, and said she hopes that through the study abroad program she can study in Spain.

Jezz, like many other UI students, went to the Study Abroad Fair held Wednesday in the Idaho Commons to learn more about her options.

Alison Scheide, Study Abroad and Exchange Student Specialist, helped organize the fair. Scheide said to help UI students find the best study abroad options, she encourages them to ask as many questions as they can.

“This is one of the few times a year where we have representatives from a lot of our organizations here to answer their questions,” Scheide said. “While we do know a lot about most of our programs, we do have over 600 opportunities to go abroad.”

All these options make studying abroad possible for most students, and Scheide said she is working to get more students from different colleges and departments to study abroad. She said she is taking into consideration what classes should be taken at the University of Idaho, as well as what classes are available abroad for students of different majors to take.

“We’ve been able to find at least one or two programs for every major we have here at UI,” Scheide said.

Sophomore management and human resources major Kirk Berensten took advantage of one of the study abroad options last semester in Ireland. Berensten said he enjoyed studying abroad so much that he intends to study abroad again as a senior.

“It’s a great experience honestly,” Jezz said.

Reforming family leave Erin Bamer Argonaut

After University of Idaho President Chuck Staben vetoed parts of a proposal to change the university’s family leave policy last year, several members of Faculty Senate said revising and resubmitting the policy would be a priority during this academic year.

The Faculty Affairs Committee made changes to the proposed policy based on Staben’s response. At the Faculty Senate meeting Tuesday, Faculty Secretary Don Crowley, a member of the Faculty Affairs Committee, gave the rest of the senators an overview of the edits.

“Some of the proposed changes come from the faculty secretary’s office … in an attempt to reconcile what we considered to be remaining ambiguities or downright confusions that resulted from what we did last year,” Crowley said.

Some of Staben’s vetoes were straightforward, like the veto on increasing the par-

From numbers to narrative Faculty Senate debates trial faculty evaluation form Erin Bamer Argonaut

A new task force exploring faculty evaluation sent out a pilot form to all University of Idaho college deans last week. The task force is made up of members from the Faculty Affairs Committee, the Provost’s Office and Faculty Senate leadership.

In previous semesters, supervisors would rate the faculty in their given units on a scale from one to five. Faculty Senate Chair Randall Teal said the most substantial change to the new form is that it moves away from this numerical approach, and would instead focus on written comments about the faculty member’s

to some tough love that would ultimately help faculty improve.

The current numerical system is too focused on numbers, Teal said.

He said many faculty members directly correlate the evaluations with raises when they should promote discussions on how to improve.

The numerical scale would distract some supervisors from giving honest evaluations, Teal said. For example, if a supervisor noticed

that they were giving a lot of high ratings they might give some lower ratings to deserving faculty.

“That doesn’t do much for morale,” Teal said.

A numeric system is also problematic because the interpretations for the ratings differed throughout the university’s colleges, Teal said.

Some colleges would rate their faculty higher than another based on the same criteria.

“It takes the focus off of the holistic individual and turns them into numbers,” Teal said.

Teal said the task force hopes to make edits based on the feedback they receive and have Faculty Senate vote on the new form within the current semester.

The Palouse has changed since Rebecca Shepard graduated from Washington State University. She said she doesn’t mind, though.

“The fun part has just been finding the new restaurants that weren’t here before,” Shepard said.

Shepard returned to the Palouse last month as the University of Idaho’s Senior Director of Marketing.

“My husband was already teaching here for the last year and a half,” Shepard said.

“We knew we always wanted to be back in this area.”

Shepard grew up in Southern California, right next to Disneyland in Orange County, but said she fell in love with the Palouse when she came to visit a friend during college.

“I knew I wanted to come up here for school”, said Shepard.

I guess the bottom line for me is to be involved in promoting the notion that faculty and staff should have a legitimate role in their workplace.

After retiring from his job as chair of the political science department at the University of Idaho in 2013, Don Crowley’s initial inclination was to turn down the offer he received for the position of faculty secretary last year from the former Chair of Faculty Senate Patricia Hartzell.

Don Crowley, Yet, after reviewing the pros and cons, Faculty secretary Crowley realized the benefits of the position vastly outweighed the negatives.

“I think it’s useful … for me at least to be that it was one of his favorite moments of continually involved in things that I know being chair of Faculty Senate.

“The university was almost 10 years something about and have been involved ahead of its time,” Crowley said. in over time,” Crowley said.

Crowley’s interest in protecting doCrowley is now entering his second year as secretary. He said most of his duties mestic partners at UI stemmed from his include taking down the minutes of Faculty knowledge of civil liberties he developed Senate meetings and answering questions while he was chair of the political science department for 20 years.

“I feel like I’m a good leader,” Miller said.

“I have some ideas of things we could do to promote some of the projects we’re working on in ASUI.” Miller said a large portion of the pro tempore position is designated for managerial responsibilities, such as making sure senators attend their office hours, show up to committee hearings and handling discipline and impeachment processes.

Miller said she is also in charge of the Ways and Means Committee that votes on all resolutions, which are essentially statements on behalf of the entire student body. She said in the past, ASUI has passed resolutions addressing national issues, and sent resolutions to the state legislature and campus administrators.

Since the election, Miller said she has generally been in charge of administrative tasks, but she has many plans for the future of ASUI.

“We’re going to be going over ASUI rules and regulations with a fine-tooth comb to make sure everything is up-to-date,” Miller said. “I’m working with the ASUI Policy Team on that so by the end of the semester we will have a new bill that rethinks rules and regulations.”

Miller said she also plans to interact with UI colleges to secure ASUI redistricting.

“I just want to get a much more efficient senate as well as a collaborative ASUI,” Miller said.

Miller said she hopes to strengthen the presence of ASUI on campus by working with other UI organizations, such as the Sustainability Center and the Women’s Center.

“I’d love to coordinate more with executives and coordinate with Faculty Senate to get everyone on the same page so we can make bold statements to the administration,” Miller said.

Former Vandal Shiloh Keo clinches Super Bowl berth for Denver Page 7

Feeling the pain Men’s basketball

Sanders breaks hand, multiple injuries devastate Vandals at guard position

Tess Fox Argonaut

Anyone who spends time in Bozeman, Montana, during the winter is bound to encounter some slippery ice. But for the lead scorer for the Idaho men’s basketball team, an encounter with ice can be even more detrimental.

During the team’s road trip to Montana State last weekend, sophomore Victor Sanders slipped on ice and caught himself with his right hand, said Idaho head coach Don Verlin. The guard was unable to play that night against the Bobcats and the Vandals fell 70-68 in a tough road match.

Initially the team stated that Sanders was absent from the lineup due to a wrist injury, but Verlin made the announcement to reporters Tuesday that the injury was more severe.

Doctors determined that Sanders would be out for three to seven weeks with a broken right hand.

The sophomore has averaged 16.4 points per game this season for the Vandals, with a career-high 33 points against Northern Arizona on Jan. 14.

Sanders was responsible for 89 total points in his last three games for the Vandals.

“I’ve been a part of a team where we’ve had guys go down in a season, but not like that,” senior guard Chris Sarbaugh said in Tuesday’s press conference.

Sanders’ injury comes two weeks after another impactful injury to the Vandals.

Junior point guard Perrion Callandret suffered a foot injury during the team’s 74-60 loss against Eastern Washington on Jan. 9.

Callandret has missed the last four games for Idaho and was forced to wear a medical boot, but Verlin announced that the guard is making a lot of progress and should return within the next couple of weeks.

As a freshman for Idaho, Sanders played in 30 games and averaged 3.8 points.

Sanders first burst on to the scene for the Vandals during the team’s matchup against Linfield on Nov. 21. The sophomore scored 23 points and notched three steals to lead Idaho to an 85-59 win.

Sanders also shot at 50 percent from 3-point range against Southern Utah on Jan. 16 and led Idaho with 29 points against the Big Sky Conference opponent.

Despite multiple guards out for an extended period of time with injuries, Verlin said that he is staying positive.

“You can’t worry about the things you can’t control,” he said.

“We can control our VN effort, our preparation, our attitude.”

For more sports Verlin said that he content, visit is excited to develop thevandalnation.com the bench players during Big Sky Conference play in the coming weeks.

Freshman small forward Nick Blair and junior Pat Ingram stepped into new roles in the team’s game against Montana State.

Junior forward Ty Egbert led Idaho with 18 points and seven rebounds.

“I’m getting a chance to see some guys play some quality minutes who haven’t had the chance,” Verlin said. “Pat has stepped up and played some really good minutes. I’m really happy with how he’s progressing.”

Ingram is a transfer from Trinity Valley Junior College and took the previous season off.

Verlin said he is happy with Blair’s development throughout the season.

“We knew Nick was going to be a good player,” Verlin said. “He was a little slow starting but I think he’s done a good job staying with it. I like what I’ve seen from him.”

Blair is a small forward, but Verlin said he will be taking guard responsibilities on the perimeter for the time being.

“It gives us a good opportunity for the younger guys and the people who haven’t played as much,” Sarbaugh said. “Then they’ve had that experience, they’re confident in their abilities and their teammates are confident in them.”

Sarbaugh feels secure in the team’s defensive strategy, but it is the offensive side he is concerned about.

“Vic and Perrion can score so many different ways were not going to be able to replace them,” Sarbaugh said. “We’ve got to figure how to play well as a team so that we all get our own shots.”

As point guard, Sarbaugh said that he wants to give everyone shots they are comfortable with while still pushing the bench players to grow.

“I want them to play their own role,” he said. “But that means maybe making a play for someone else, not necessarily shooting.”

Verlin said that Big Sky opponents will not give the Vandals any leeway in the coming weeks.

“When you have injuries, nobody’s going to feel sorry for you,” Verlin said. “You feel awful for the players because they work so hard.”

Verlin said that the Vandals are not the

only team battling through injuries, citing Sacramento State’s injury-riddled lineup.

“They’re having to play without one of their better players,” Verlin said.

Sacramento State senior Cody Demps missed the match-up against Montana State last week, while junior Nick Hornsby sat out against Portland State due to injury.

“We can’t control injuries, but we can control how we play, Verlin said. “No one’s going to feel sorry for your basketball team.”

Championship impact alumni

Former Vandal Shiloh Keo will play for Broncos in historic game Josh Grissom Argonaut

Denver Broncos safety Shiloh Keo walked onto Sports Authority Field in the waning moments of Sunday’s AFC Championship, knowing that he was about to be involved in one of the most important plays of his entire career.

The Patriots trailed the Broncos 20-18 with 12 seconds left to play, and Keo was on the field as part of a special teams unit designed to recover an onside kick.

A hush came over the crowd as Patriots placekicker Stephen Gostkowski lined up the ball on the

tee and prepared for the gamedeciding kick.

The four-time Pro Bowler held his hand in the air as a ready signal, before sprinting up the ball and booting it into the ground in the hopes that it would take an unexpected bounce in favor of the Patriots.

Keo reacted in a matter of seconds, rushing forward to grab the football as several New England players slammed into his body.

The crowd erupted in a roar of noise, as referees quickly signaled the recovery by Keo. The safety leapt up off the turf and ran towards the Denver sideline, his arms outstretched in celebration.

Keo didn’t just secure the football — he secured Denver’s spot in Super Bowl 50.

“When I think about it, I get emotional,” Keo said following Sunday’s victory in the AFC Championship game.

The former Idaho graduate was signed by Denver late in the season as a replacement at strong safety, after several starters at the position went down with injuries.

As a Vandal, Keo was named the starting safety as a true freshman under former head coach Dennis Erickson in 2006.

The following year, Keo earned team MVP honors and set program records in both punt return average and punt return yardage.

The Houston Texans selected the safety with the 144th overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft.

In 2012, Keo was named team co-captain alongside defensive

Women’s basketball

Outrebounding the Hornets Free throws and shutting down the nation’s top three-point team gave Idaho the win at Sacramento Luis Torres Argonaut

As the Idaho women’s basketball team traveled for Thursday’s game against Sacramento State, the team was hoping to rebound from a tough conference loss against Montana State Saturday.

Idaho entered the matchup against a strong Hornets program that led the nation in 3-point shooting, averaging 12.1 conversions per game.

But the Hornets powerful shooting faltered Thursday night, as the Vandals defeated Sacramento State 98-88 at the Colberg Court in Sacramento.

The win improves Idaho’s record to 6-2 in the Big Sky Conference and 14-6 overall.

The Vandals had three players finish the game with more than 16 points. Senior post Ali Forde led the team with a career-high 20 points and provided two blocks on defense.

Senior guard Christina Salvatore started off the game by scoring Idaho’s first eight points from the field.

Salvatore ended the night with a double-double,

scoring 16 points and collecting 14 rebounds. The senior also made four of Idaho’s six shots beyond the arc and led the team with seven assists.

Junior Karlee Wilson’s quick presence on the perimeter was apparent throughout the game, as the point guard scored a career-high 19 points.

Idaho’s defense shut down the Hornets from 3-point range, as Sacramento State only converted six shots behind the arc.

Free throws also proved to be a deciding factor. Idaho made 83 percent (20-24) of their free throws while Hornets struggled with a 55 shooting percentage.

Idaho outrebounded the Hornets 48-33 in four quarters of play.

Idaho scored 29 points in the first quarter, matching a season high set Nov. 20.

The Vandals shot 71.4 percent (10-of-14) from the field to grab an initial lead that the team never relented.

The Vandals will continue a road trip with a Big Sky Conference matchup on Saturday.

Idaho will face Portland State at 2 p.m. at the Peter Stott Center in Portland.

Moscow’s fresh face New businesses cater to younger Moscow population

M

oscow’s Main Street has new additions every year.

Most of the new shops and restaurants show that the Moscow business scene is embracing college students as primary consumers.

College students tend to be trend setters, and Moscow’s restaurant market is developing to match student preferences. In recent years, popular trends have shifted away from cheap, bland food and fashion to newer, fresher products. Moscow is starting to show that shift as well.

More students are taking an interest in smaller, more specialized stores as well as thrift shops and coffee houses. The days of drive-thru eating and ordering is slowly coming to an end.
