LETTER TO THE EDITOR

LETTER TO THE EDITOR To the Editor:

UNIVERSITY PRESS

The UP story headlined “Cakes and lies” is based on an error of fact. When I was interviewed by Gideon Grudo, I told him that although FAU was established in 1961 via a funding bill that passed the Florida Legislature, that year was not inscribed on the University seal until the presidency of Dr. Anthony Catanese. Further investigation on my part revealed that the University’s first graphic image, a logo showing a horizontal view of the state of Florida, included the year 1961. That meant that the University’s original administrators recognized 1961 as the founding year. (See http:// www.fau.edu/40th/alook_gallery4.html) I advised Mr. Grudo of this by voicemail and email, but the inaccuracy still appeared in his story.

The story also presented the fundraising aspect of the 50th anniversary gala in a negative light. This is unfortunate, as the event is being hosted to raise money for student scholarships, which, in my opinion, is the highest and best purpose such an event could serve.

EDITOR’S RESPONSE Indeed, in the story “Cake and lies,” I wrote, “In the 1990s, under FAU President Anthony Catanese, the year 1961 was added to FAU’s seal.”

That is not true, as Ms. Laurenti has shown me — the year 1961 has always been on FAU’s seal.

After we spoke about this correction, Laurenti sent me another e-mail. Part of it read: “To the best of my knowledge, the only two ‘birthdays’ that have been celebrated in the history of the University were in 2004 – to mark 40 years from the day the doors opened in [1964] – and now in 2011 to mark 50 years from passage of the initial funding bill that established FAU.”

Having made mention of the correction, I don’t see the subject of the story changing. And I don’t see how 1961 was “acknowledged as our founding year from the very beginning.”

If FAU has celebrated only two anniversaries, seven years apart, the point remains. FAU has yet to decide how old it is. I guess the best I can do is wait until 2014 and see what is celebrated — if anything at all.

I would like to thank Ms. Laurenti for her letter and input. If you have any thoughts or comments about the UP, don’t hesitate to e-mail us at upressonline@gmail.com.

Doctors on campus

FAU’s new school of medicine gets accreditation to offer medical degrees

Allison Nielsen CONTRIBUTROR Sarah Campbell doesn’t want to drive to Miami or move to Gainesville to become a doctor. Now she won’t have to, as FAU is getting a medical school.

On Feb. 7, FAU received its preliminary accreditation from the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME), the national authority for medical education programs in the United States.

“This is a very exciting time,” said Michael Friedland, dean of the College of Medicine. “In becoming a medical school, FAU becomes part of an ‘exclusive club.” According to Friedland, there are about 140 medical schools in the country. With the accredidation, FAU will become the fifth medical school in Florida.

The accreditation process begins with the LCME visiting the university looking to be approved.

It then notifies schools about six months before the scheduled visit, giving them sufficient time to create their own medical education database, which contains educational program outlines for medical students and faculty members.

After that, the LCME sends a survey team to

examine the potential school for accreditation, which is based on the resulting survey report.

Friedland said it normally takes several years to receive preliminary accreditation, but FAU got it in two.

The school will have a program to place students in community clinical education, offering experiences with local hospitals and physicians.

“I think FAU is growing, and expanding,” said senior biology major Johnnetta Nuby. “I hope the medical school brings more positive attention and gets FAU’s name known.”

Nuby, who aspires to become a pediatrician, said she would apply to FAU’s medical school because she likes the Boca campus, and she’s already an undergraduate.

Like Nuby, other FAU students feel their existing familiarity with the university would play a role in their decision to attend the medical school.

Biology major Gilbert Jean Baptiste also feels he wants to stay at FAU for medical school.

“I’ve dedicated four years to FAU,” Jean Baptiste said. “Transitioning to somewhere else would

honestly make me miss the school.”

The College of Medicine will be located on the Boca campus in a new $20 million, 95,000-square-foot facility designed especially for the medical school and further education in the biomedical sciences.

However, there is currently no set date to begin construction, according to Friedland.

The school has already established affiliations with more than 250 physicians and eight hospitals in both Palm Beach and Broward counties. These affiliations will allow medical students to fulfill residency requirements and obtain the hands-on experience required for the medical profession.

The medical school will assist in providing more doctors for Palm Beach County and the state of Florida, which will need 63 percent more doctors in the next 10 years, according to an estimate from the American Academy of Family Physicians.

“It will result in economic benefits,” Friedland said.

“We can become a driver for Palm Beach County and South Florida, meet a community service need and enhance FAU’s stature in the community.”

Growing prestige FAU receives record-breaking number of freshman applicants CHELSEA KISELA CONTRIBUTOR rom the upcoming football stadium, to its new medical school, FAU seems to be making progress — and to top it all, 19,500 freshmen have applied for next fall.

“It’s not that we’re just getting this record number of applicants, we’re getting overqualified applicants for our university standards,” said Student Body President Ayden Maher. “We are no longer admitting people whose last choice is FAU, their first choice is FAU, and that’s really cool.”

The Board of Trustees’ Strategic Planning Committee, which is in charge of setting new goals and keeping track of current projects for the university, analyzed the applications.

As of mid-February, FAU has recieved approximately 96.5 percent more freshman applications than last year. About 1,000 of them have high school grade point averages of 3.5 or higher.

According to Michael Armstrong, associate vice president for enrollment management of FAU’s Strategic Planning Committee, the unprecedented number of applicants was not only welcomed, it was planned for.

“We absolutely expected this to happen,” Armstrong said. “We are seeing more of this freshman growth than I had certainly anticipated, but it’s very much in the direction that we had in mind.”

Armstrong said FAU President Mary Jane Saunders and the Board of Trustees adopted a plan aided by Royall & Company, whose website states it is “dedicated exclusively to working with colleges and universities to achieve their enrollment and financial goals.”

FAU plans to grow the current student body from 28,000 to 36,000 over the next five years.

Armstrong added that accommodating this

number of students will be no easy task.

“We are going through all the existing space on campus, including the new building on campus, with our Facilities Department, and making sure we are utilizing our classroom space to get the most out of it,” Armstrong said. “Some spaces that weren’t classrooms before will now be.”

Several high school seniors and FAU staff members attribute the university’s seemingly newfound recognition to three key areas: campus life, affordability and locale.

Seventeen-year-old Katherine Nassi said these factors made FAU her first choice.

“I really want to stay close to home and FAU seems more fun than it used to be … like more of a real college experience,” said the Cypress Bay High School senior. “The new stadium really attracted me. Plus, the movie theater at FAU is really cool, because no other college in the country has that.”

Although it was recently announced that state tuition will increase another 15 percent next year, Florida universities are still among the cheapest in the country, which is something that attracts students, Armstrong said.

The Strategic Planning Committee works with the legislature and board of governors to plan for the future success of FAU, in areas such as enrollment, degree audits, and utilizing classroom space. They recently did a poll in Palm Beach County high schools to find students’ key reasons for choosing their desired college.

Eighty percent said affordability was one of the most important features.

Ayden Maher agrees.

“You have to factor affordability into your decisions, because at the end of the day, you don’t want to be burdened with huge sums of debt when you leave college, especially in the current job market,” he said.

Armstrong thinks locale, along with

affordability, is attracting students from not only the tri-county area, but also all over the world.

“Certainly for those people who are in the area and want to stay in the area, it’s proximity.

However, it’s also a very attractive location — this is paradise,” Armstrong said. “We’re two miles from the beach, have gorgeous weather, and we have a beautiful campus.”

Maher also believes the growth in applicants is because FAU is changing its culture from a commuter school to a more traditional university.

“Now people want to come to FAU because their parents or their friends did,” Maher said.

“No longer are commuter students just coming to campus and going home. They come to campus, go to an event, a basketball game, start or join a club. ...They’re becoming involved; they’re investing in the university.”

Still, some students opt for FAU because they couldn’t get into their first-choice schools.

Eighteen-year-old Kevin Kemp, a senior at Pompano Beach High School, said he applied to FAU because he knows people on campus and it’s really difficult to get scholarships at other schools.

He said a lot of his friends see FAU as a “safety blanket.”

“I had no idea about the changes at FAU. I don’t think any of my friends do either,” Kemp said. “If people knew these things, I think way more students would apply.”

Armstrong said President Saunders and the Board of Trustees are planning an advertising and marketing campaign to inform the public of the campus and academic life that FAU has to offer.

Maher is confident that FAU will continue to grow.

“The amount of progress that I’ve seen, all the change going on now, I can’t imagine what it will be like when these freshmen graduate in 2015,” Maher said. “We just need to make sure that we continue to go up.”

There has been a sharp increase in freshman applications for the Fall 2011 semester. In fact, ninety percent more applications have been received in comparison to last year.

Straight from the southXeast W

ith titles like

“Imagining Elvis as my Daddy” and “Snakes in the Tracks,” the art on the walls of the University Galleries ranges from alien and quirky to romantic and playful and slightly risqué. It’s the southXeast: Contemporary Southeastern Art exhibit, and it’s currently open to the public.

Starting Jan. 29 and running through Saturday, April 9, the southXeast art exhibit presents 13 artists from seven different southeastern states.

For some of the featured artists, it is their first time showing off their work in South Florida. Artists such as Stephanie Patton said they are very excited to be debuting at FAU. “It’s amazing to be able to represent Louisiana. My project in particular is unique to this exhibition because it is displayed in the public space of the Schmidt Gallery,” said Patton.

Walking into the long, white rooms of twists, turns and shiny wood floors, on the walls hang various pieces of art.

Some are sculpted, painted or drawn, and others are porcelain or mixed media.

“We were aiming for diversity,” said FAU University Galleries Director Rod Faulds, “to put together an interesting group of artists that haven’t been shown together before. We wanted unknown, emerging, under-recognized artists — people unfamiliar to our normal audience.”

The exhibit is featured at FAU once every three years. Focusing on increasing the region’s Miami-centered contemporary art contributions, Faulds said this year’s artists were carefully chosen from more than 200 nominees.

SouthXeast-featured artist Kathy Yancey called the experience “a worthwhile challenge.”

“I’m very proud to be chosen for this ferociously competitive exhibition,” said Yancey. “The work in this show gives one a glimpse of the diversity and skill of the artists working in this region and should expand the horizons for all who come to experience it.”

Mike Jarvis: The coach, the teacher I t’s a Saturday night in late January, and everyone inside of FAU’s basketball arena is draped in white. On the sideline, Mike Jarvis has a white sweater vest covering his customary light blue dress shirt.

The white sweater vest stands out and would usually look out of place, but on this night, it blends in.

It’s “White-Out” night inside The Burrow and Jarvis is watching his creation, the first place Owls, gallop around the court.

Sophomore guard, Ray Taylor, is running the fastbreak for FAU, surveying the court. In front of him, forward Kore White is grappling with a defender, his elbows jamming into the ribs of the defender, his palms reaching skyward for the ball. Taylor sees him, only not quick enough.

He throws the basketball towards White, but it isn’t close enough, as it’s thrown over White’s head and settles near a group of cheerleaders. As Taylor jogs toward the other end of the court, Mike Jarvis’ eyes lock in on Taylor, piercing through as the veins in the third-year FAU coach’s neck begin to present themselves.

Jarvis’ arms are out by his side, his palms are facing upward, and his head is cocked, almost as if it’s too heavy to hold.

“RAY!” screams Jarvis. “RAY! RAY!” Jarvis’ face has turned a different shade, a nuclear red shade. His forehead is now housing a pool of sweat.

Three times Jarvis yells Taylor’s name. Not a question, not a statement, but rather a rhetorical question at best and a frustrated coach at worst.

“He may not like it at the time, and I may not even like it. I’d rather be patting him on the back telling him how wonderful he is. He’s got enough people doing that. That’s not my job.”

Before the flashy passes, before the diminutive star point guard was launching long three-pointers, he was just Raymond Taylor. Another basketball recruit looking for a home for the next four years.

A few years ago Taylor, then a high schooler, was in the early stages of an important phone call. Jarvis was on the other line, pitching and pleading with Taylor to come to Boca and be an Owl. “The first time I called [him], we were on the phone for like two minutes and the call dropped,” said Taylor, reminiscing about the moment. “My phone went dead but he thought I hung up on him. He just told me ‘Wow, I thought you hung up. I thought I didn’t have a shot.’”

Jarvis laughs about it all now. He remembers it well, but his confidence overshadows the memory. He had a fleeting moment of doubt, but only because he knew how important Taylor could be to the program.

“I told people before [Taylor] ever played his first game, I’ve got somebody that’s worth the price of admission, just to come see him,” said Jarvis.

And people came to see him, indeed. Because of Taylor, and a litany of others that Jarvis lured to Boca, FAU was showcased on ESPN2 this season.

The bait on the end of the line for these young players was tied to a school with great weather, but precious little in the way of basketball success.

At the helm, though, it had a coach with plenty of basketball success.

Chapter 1: The Bottom The fall of Mike Jarvis.

Angelos admits that his first choice for the job was the highprofile Jarvis, but cautioned the perils of making such a hire.

“Keep in mind, when you’re an Athletic Director, when you hire a high-profile coach your career is tied to them,” said Angelos. “So if you make the wrong choice, then they can take you down and the program down in a heartbeat.”

The gamble presented itself, and Angelos took the proposition and hired Jarvis.

Class teaches students how to create apps for Google’s smart phone RACHEL CHAPNICK SENIOR COPY EDITOR hat do robotic life-size chess pieces

W Should I take the Droid or iPhone class?

In spite of the rivalry between Apple and Google, not to mention devout owners of the different phones, there is no hostility between the two departments.

“The iPhone is the originator of all these ideas. Before there was Android, there was the iPhone,” said Ravi Shankar, who teaches the Droid programming class.

In fact, members of the two departments recommend taking both courses Graduate student Mihai Fonoage, who’s responsible in part for the creation of this class and is an alumnus of the iPhone class, believes both classes are just as good.

“I don’t recommend taking this class over the iPhone class, I recommend taking both.

If you are a mobile enthusiast, and you want to build a career out of mobile development, just knowing one platform is not enough,” Fonoage said.

Oge Marques, a co-professor of the iPhone course, agreed with Fonoage.

“Anyone interested in learning mobile app development should learn both platforms, since they will probably compete — without an obvious winner in sight — for several years to come,” Marques said via e-mail.

have in common with a game designed to promote social awareness? They are both run by software applications on the Android phone. And both apps were created by FAU students as part of a class.

Professor Ravi Shankar, who teaches the Android programming classes, said they have been a huge success, both financially and with budding programmers. The courses, which currently have 140 students, have garnered a state grant and resulted in three student-founded Android app companies.

In the Android programming classes, students are taught how to develop, program and market apps.

The Android program began at the end of 2008, when graduate student Mihai Fonoage and his wife asked Shankar to help them to design an app.

“I decided, together with my wife, to participate in a contest run by Google to develop an application using the Android platform,” Fonoage said via e-mail. “We decided to ask Dr. Shankar to be our advisor for that.”

After aiding with the app, Shankar decided to build a course around the subject.

As part of the course, each student is given an Android phone for the semester in order to develop their apps, which they do in the university’s Android Lab. Android uses the Linux operating system and is run

by Google. Linux and Google are free and open source, meaning information and technology used to create the apps are open and can be shared throughout the programming community.

“Because of this, Android has been evolving quite fast and there is speculation that it will surpass iOS in terms of both capability and popularity,” said Charles Norona, a student and teaching assistant, via e-mail.

Like Google and Linux, FAU’s program also urges cooperation.

Shankar said the students are split into groups to develop their apps, an attempt to mirror conditions they will face in the real world, where he said it is uncommon for computer engineers to work individually.

Associate professor Francis McAffe said via e-mail that “this is the ultimate goal; to create an entrepreneurial program that connects creativity with computing and commerce.”

Currently, the course is offered to both undergraduates and graduate students. According to Shankar, the undergraduates are currently working on developing “a socially conscious game.”

One group, for example, is creating a game showing the benefits of having health care.

Shankar said some students in the graduate program are working on designing apps using robotics and Semantic Web Services, a protocal which translates information from servers to personal computers.

The robotics app ran a chess game by attaching robots to the base of life-size chess pieces. One graduate student using Semantic Web Services is developing a map of hiking trails in Florida.

Although all students currently taking Android classes are computer engineering majors, Shankar would like to see the course incorporated into the College of Arts and Letters and the College of Business.

“We will work with anybody who wants to work with us,” Shankar said.

McAffe, who is both an artist and computer animator, agrees with Shankar’s position.

“The goals are to create beneficial computer applications that are relevant to our lives. In the process students from the arts, engineering, and hopefully from [the college of] business can collaborate to reach this goal,” McAffe said.

“I think they will learn quite a bit at an accelerated pace if logistics can be worked out.”

Giant chess pieces don’t move without being touched, right? However, FAU students managed to make that happen. Graduate students attached robots to life-size chess pieces and were able to play a game entirely through their Android phone (Pictured right).

Relative Indoor Firefighter Locator: This app was designed to locate firefighters via Bluetooth. They hope to eventually run this app without outside networks. Students were able to implement a Bluetooth chip into a pedometer, which can track a person’s position.

That’s some ‘stash you got there Top 10 famous mustaches MARK GIBSON STAFF REPORTER

ome men are famous for music, movies or television. Some men are famous for modeling, writing or sports.

Then there are the men who are famous for their virile mustaches. The fact that they became famous for what they actually do is irrelevant, because their mustache has become a cultural icon.

From thin rich-man fuzz to raging, hairy beasts, men everywhere have tried to pull off the mustache. But none do it better than the men on this list.

Due to the fact that there are so many famous men with a ‘stash, we couldn’t just narrow it down to 10. So, to pay respect to this world’s most famous manly man’s ‘stashes, here is the UP’s top 10 and runner up list:

S

10Yosemite Sam 9 Salvador Dali He may have more than just a mustache, but the ‘stash part of his beard is astounding. Yosemite Sam is the only man on the list to have a full beard. He’s short, furious, and, like every other Loony Tunes character, hates Bugs Bunny.

6 Gene Shalit

He is known for three things: his puns, his bowties and his crazy mustache.

He has been a regular on NBC’s The Today Show since 1975, giving book and movie reviews. His constant puns can drive you up a wall, but you have to admire someone who can sport an oversized handlebar mustache for more than 40 years.

2 Tom Selleck

If you don’t know Tom Selleck’s work, chances are you still know of his bushy mustache. It is considered the equivalent of martial arts icon Chuck Norris. If Norris and Selleck ever combined forces, God help us all. Selleck once shaved his mustache on an episode of TV show Friends. It was horrifying.

These days you can catch Selleck on the CBS network show Blue Bloods, where he has revived his role as a cop and once again sports a fantastic mustache.

UPRESSONLINE.COM

Not only was Salvador Dali off his rocker, but he sported the thinnest mustache on the list. Dali was a Spanish surrealist painter best known for his painting The Persistence of Memory, also known as the weird painting with the melting clocks. Dali had the thin gentleman’s mustache of the early 20th century and later grew it out to an insane length.

General Custer Clark Gable Lando Calrissian Freddy Mercury Dick Dastardly

8 Burt Reynolds 7 Groucho Marx

He sure has a way with the ladies, and with that mustache, he always has his way with the ladies. You may know Burt Reynolds from his famous role as Bo Darville in Smokey and the Bandit, where he smuggled Coors across state lines and did stunts with his car. All men wish they could duplicate. A true American hero.

5The Swedish Chef 4 Mike Ditka

Hailing from the genius mind of Jim Henson, the Swedish Chef was another creation from the Muppets. He may not have been a man of words or a very good chef, but he had a damn good mustache. Not sure what qualified him as being Swedish, and we’re pretty sure his character was the result of some soft of racism, but he will always be known for his burly, red-haired ‘stash.

RUNNERS UP

One of the most intimidating people on the planet, Ditka was the former head coach of the beastly NFL football team da Bears. Not only is his name fun to say, but he is known for being quite the inspirational talker. Ditka is a man who sounds like he is yelling no matter what he’s saying. And when Ditka isn’t yelling at you, his mustache is.

You know those fake glasses that have the big nose and furry mustache attached to them? Well, this is the man’s face they portray. Groucho Marx is known for his slapstick, over-the-top bad jokes, his jungle eyebrows, and his ridiculously thick mustache. It was obvious that the mustache was fake, but it was still iconic and has provided a Halloween costume for years.

3 Charlie Chaplin

Yes, his mustache resembles a certain infamous, angry German dude’s, but Chaplin made the small lip hair famous first, and frankly was an overall more enjoyable person. His physical humor was unmatchable, and everyone knew who he was from his tiny lip fuzz.

1 Mario By far the most famous mustache known to mankind, he was first introduced to the world as Jump man. Oddly enough, the mustache was a cop-out by the designer.

Creating a mouth area in 8-bit graphics was a difficult task, so the developers slapped a mustache on ol’ Jump man. Thus Mario was born. To this day, his mustache has become a staple not only to the video game industry, but the entire world.

Getting a kick of freedom

SPORTS

FAU teams up with Women’s Professional Soccer team PHILICIA DOUGLAS CONTRIBUTOR omen’s

Professional Soccer (WPS) is a pro league with a total of six teams across the country, and this April, FAU will become the home base for one of them.

Magic Jack’s Washington Freedom will be playing most of this season’s home games at FAU Soccer Stadium.The team’s new owner Daniel Borislow recently purchased the Washington Freedom, but ran across problems with finding a proper venue.

That caused him to turn to FAU women’s soccer head coach Brian Dooley. Borislow asked FAU to be host to his team, and after many discussions, the pro soccer team’s temporary home change was approved with the anticipation of growing FAU’s soccer program.

“Our hope is that it continues to solidify FAU as a prominent place in the development of soccer in certainly South Florida, if not in the region in the country,” said Dooley.

Athletic Director Craig Angelos is anticipating that the Freedom will draw attention to FAU because of its notoriety. WPS is known to have many of the greatest women soccer players in the world, such as Mia Hamm, Abby Wambach, and Heather Mitts, all of whom have played for Washington.

In hopes of meeting the requirements of the league, Angelos plans to extend the current stadium to 3,000 seats by late April.

“The soccer field is what will be used right now [and] if it goes well in the future and the league continues, then maybe we can build something here to get an even better venue,” said Angelos.

MagicJack’s Washington Freedom’s arrival at FAU will be the first-ever pro women’s soccer team to play in South Florida and the second pro team of any sport to play in South Florida history (the WNBA’s Miami Sol in 2000).

Washington Freedom’s season kicks off on the road on Saturday, April 16, at 7 p.m. against the Boston Breakers in Kennesaw State University Stadium. The Freedom’s first home game is on Saturday, April 23, although the venue where it will be played has yet to be finalized, as the team plans on playing a home game or two in Washington.
