out what UNT has to offer for fashion merchandising students. “I haven’t really heard anything about [UNT] yet,” Hutcherson said. “It looks fun.” Hutcherson’s parents, J. and Denise Hutcherson, said they’re making a number

of trips to events like UNT Preview to find a program that best fits their daughter’s needs. Viviana Trevino, a high school senior from Coppell, has already been accepted to UNT. She and her mother came to the preview to tour the campus and to find out more about the journalism program. “I’ve come here before, but

I’ve never taken a tour of the actual buildings,” she said. Jasiel Perez, a higher educa-tion graduate student and an associate director of admis-

sions, said the main differ-ence between this semester’s preview and years past was the Accepted Students Luncheon. “This year, we recognized

admitted students that had already gone through the admis-sions process and we had a lunch barbeque for them,” Perez said. In addition to the luncheon, accepted students had the chance to connect with their future orientation leaders, another new addition to the preview. UNT Dining Services also served lunch to all prospective students and their families in Kerr Cafeteria.

Perez said this is the first time UNT has divided accepted and prospective students. Before, UNT has not been able to accu-rately track how many people end up attending UNT after they have attended a preview. “A f t er t h i s pr e v ie w, we’ll be able to track that n u m b e r,” P e r e z s a i d . The event’s official count hasn’t been released, but Mayfield guessed that about 1,500 students attended, and most brought family members.

“Overall, we estimate around 4,500 students and families [were] on campus,” he said.

Holi Happiness

UNT’s World Echoes and Multicultural Center hosted a gathering Saturday at McKenna Park to celebrate Holi, a Hindu holiday that symbolizes the beginning of spring. About 30 students met at the park to participate and chased each other around with pink, blue, yellow and green powdered paint to celebrate the end of winter. The event concluded with students dancing to popular Indian songs to honor the holiday and their culture.

An estimated 4,000 people attended this semester’s UNT Preview, which brought both accepted and prospective students and their families to tour and learn more about UNT. The preview took place Saturday throughout the campus between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Dustin Mayfield, a higher education graduate student and an assistant director of admissions who helped organize the event, said the response to this semes-ter’s preview was outstanding. “We broke a record in the number of people who pre-regis-tered for the event,” Mayfield said. The event takes place during both the spring and fall semesters and serves as a tool for accepted and prospective students to learn what UNT has to offer, Mayfield said. “It gives students and parents a small taste of the ‘real’ college experience,” he said. “By putting our best foot forward and giving the students a good experience, we have a great chance of seeing them on campus in the fall.” The preview is divided into sessions students and their families can attend throughout

the day. Session topics include financial aid, housing, study abroad, freshman admissions, transfer admissions presenta-tions, UNT student and parent panels, and academic sessions. Campus tours and residence hall tours were also available. Alex Hutcherson, a high school junior from Arlington, came to the preview to check

Last month proved to be the second driest March in Texas history, putting the Dallas-Fort Worth area about four inches below average rain-fall for this time of year, the Nat iona l Weat her Ser v ice said.

About 3.73 inches of rain has fallen on the Dallas-Fort Worth area so far this year, an amount meteorologists said is unusually low for spring weather.

“We generally get rain in the spring,” said meteorolo-gist Matt Mosier. “If we are dry in the spring, it doesn’t bode well for summer.”

Mosier said that lack of rainfall has pushed much of the state into drought condi-tions.

“For the first time in two years, the entire state is in an abnormally dry state,” Mosier said.

Monday morning showers dropped about .15 inches in Denton to begin a week that could bring more wet weather to the area. Temperatures are expected

Wet weather ahead

to slowly rise from low 70s to high 80s by the end of the week, with a small chance of rain on Thursday and a 20 percent chance of rain Saturday and Sunday.

Art history freshman Kyle Kirby said he welcomes the weather change.

“I think it’s about time the weather warmed up,” Kirby said. “I think the winter went on way too long.”

Hospita lit y management sophomore Kelsey Hughen said walking to class in the heat will not be fun.

“I’m not rea l ly look i ng for ward to it,” she said. “I really prefer the winter.”

Hughen said the drought and the potential to have a hotter summer concern her.

“Texas summers are already painful enough,” she said. “They don’t need to get any hotter.”

Blaring music, cultura l dance performances, henna tattoos and Japanese origami cranes were just a few attrac-tions that drew more than 150 students to WorldFest Friday.

The annual event, hosted by the Texas Academy of Math and Science students, took place in McConnell Park, and raised $3,400, which will be donated to the UNICEF Japan relief fund.

“The TAMS students love volunteering,” said Brandon Buckner, a social science junior and program adviser. “They really feel passionate about helping out.”

Attendees bought tickets at

the front of the park for a dollar per ticket, which were used at various booths.

“Last year, we raised $1,000 inside McConnell, but it was mostly TAMS students,” said Maggie Hakala, a TAMS senior and president of FACES, the Fellowship for the Advancement of Cultural Education for

TAMS’ WorldFest raises more than $3,000 for Japan

Students, the group that orga-nized the event.

The 1,000 crane projectThe most prominent project

at the event was the 1,000 cranes project, where people paid $1 to learn how to make an origami crane and then attach it to a chain of cranes, Hakala said.

“Japanese tradition is that if you make 1,000 paper cranes then your wish will come true,” Hakala said. “Our wish is that Japan can rebuild.”

TA MS ju n iors Ma r i ko Nakamura and Lisa Su researched the idea for the booth and also found a sponsor to purchase the cranes.

Nakamura said that the website Studentsrebuild.com is going to pay $2 for each crane and send the proceeds to Japan.

Usually, WorldFest takes place inside of McConnell Hall, but this year, in order to reach out to UNT students as well, event organizers decided to have it outside in the park, Buckner said.

Buckner said having the event outdoors was very successful after comparing the significant gain in money collected with last year.

“We want to change how the campus views us,” Buckner said. “This year we worked on making sure UNT and TAMS were more involved with each other.”

Courtney Bailey, an education freshman, stopped by the event in between classes to show her support.

“I thought I would come and support as much as I could,” Bailey said.

Two new programs on NTTV, UNT’s television station, are connecting students and showing what UNT does.

“No r t h Te x a s No w ” premiered last month and airs Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. “Spectra” premieres Thursday, March 10, and will air every Thursday and Friday at 6:30 p.m.

Trey Friedrichs, NTTV’s program manager, said the programs have been added to help NTTV reach its goal of connecting the UNT campus to the Denton community. The NTTV schedule already

consists of student-pro-duced newscasts, sitcoms, game shows and more. NTTV is broadcast t hroughout Denton County on Charter Communications channel 22 and Verizon Fios channel 46.

“It has been my goal to give UNT a voice in the community by showcasing what goes on inside and outside the class-room,” Friedrichs said.

“North Texas Now” is a bi-weekly lifestyle news maga-zine recorded in the University Union, Friedrichs said. The show features interviews and segments on a variety of topics important to the UNT community. The show

has already featured musical performances, interviews with visiting UNT guests, and cooking demonstrations.

“Spectra,” which is co-pro-duced by the UNT Office of Research and Economic Development, was created to inform students about a variety of different research projects across the univer-sity. Each episode features two faculty members from different academic depart-ments discussing various topics that are relevant to their research.

Three Daily staff members were recognized for their work in on-site competitions at the Texas Intercollegiate Press Association conference Thursday through Saturday.

Design editor Brianne Tolj won first place in the on-site front-page design competi-tion. Visuals Editor Berenice Quirino and Senior Staff Writer and Photographer Drew Gaines placed third in an on-site two-person photo essay competi-tion. The Daily also won nine awards for off-site submis-sions.

The annual TIPA competition pits college newspapers against one another in categories such as content produced each year and on-site assignments. The Daily competes in the Division 1 category, comprised of other Texas universities that produce at least four newspapers weekly. The Daily won Best in Show in

2010, but did not place in the top three at Saturday’s a w a r d s banquet.

“The Daily did really well last year, and we went in with high expecta-tions this year,” s a i d K a t i e Griv na, t he editor-in-chief of the Daily. “We didn’t do as well as we expected, but we still had a lot of fun and learned a lot from the other student journalists who were there.”

Tolj competed against about 60 other participants to design the front page of either a news-paper or a magazine by hand in under an hour.

“I didn’t think I would win

because there were so many people there,” Tolj said. “I eventually realized I was the only one left in the room. I was hoping that maybe, since I sat there and took my time, it would pay off.”

Quirino and Gaines were assigned to take a five-pic-ture photo essay in four hours representing “Cow-Town,” or downtown Fort Worth.

Kathie Hinnen of the journalism faculty and the adviser to the Daily, said she was pleased both Quirino and Gaines were recognized, because they regularly turn in excellent photos and videos for the Daily. Hinnen said she

was also thrilled to see Tolj receive first place.

“Tolj has been responsible for making the North Texas Daily much more attractive over the last two semesters,” Hinnen said. “I’m delighted that the contest judges recognized the quality of her work.”

Students and faculty had their cake and ate it too at the annual International Edible Book Festival Friday in the Willis Library Forum to kick off National Poetry Month.

Twelve to 15 people entered cakes or non-cakes that were based literally or creatively on children’s books or adult fiction and non-fiction books. Library special events coordinator Kristin Boyett said this is the first year the competition has been in a larger capacity.

“It’s basically kind of bringing together people who have a tendency to really like books, have a tendency to really like food,” Boyett said. “So it’s a great excuse to bring both of them together.”

Attendees voted for the best tasting, best use of chocolate, best adult fiction and non-fiction, best non-cake and best unusual use of food entries. For the best unusual use of food category, the book entries were judged by their covers in the categories of origi-nality, creativity, skill, construc-tion, visual appeal and adher-ence to the book theme. Winners were announced at 4 p.m.

After spending the first half of the event observing details of the cakes, the second half was spent eating the creations.

April 1 is the birthday of French food critic Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, who is famous for his book “Physiologie du goût,” a clever meditation on food, according to the book festival’s website.

The website also stated that the event offers a time for “a deeper reflection on our attach-ment to food and our cultural differences.”

Not the average libraryOutside the sounds of pages

flipping and keyboards tapping, Boyett said her job is to get more people to participate in the library.

“We’re really trying to break out of the mold of being just the quiet building with all the books,” she said.

Art sophomore Angelica Castillo she said she entered for an extra credit assign-ment.

Castillo went with a non-cake approach and made her book, “The Cat in the Hat,” out of colorful M&Ms and Rice Krispies cereal. She said she started Monday and finished in a five-hour time frame.

“I’m kind of like, ‘I want to win, so I’m going to do what everyone else is not doing,’” Castillo said.

Cakes like the one submitted by hospitality management junior Bailey Turner and devel-opment and family studies junior Valerie Morgan satisfied the sweet tooth of students like Kelsey Hicks, who described their cake as colorful and moist.

“I wish I would have known about it [the festival] sooner, because that’d be really cool to enter something [like that],” said Hicks, a communication design sophomore.

What started off as pictures on paper has manifested into 12-inch monsters with hairy arms and bug-eyed faces with a little thread and imagination.

Students taking an introduc-tory 3D art class made stuffed-animal monsters, based off sketches drawn by second grade students at Hodge Elementary School, as part of a dual-class assignment and outreach project called “Taming the World’s Monsters.”

“We wanted this project to raise awareness early in arts education for both UNT students and the much younger students in the Denton community,” said James Thurman of the art studio faculty.

This is the first time the College of Visual Arts and Design has done a community outreach project with elementary students like this, he said.

The goal of the assignment, for both the UNT students and the Hodge second graders, was to show how the process of a real-life art commission works. In this scenario, the second graders were the clients, Thurman said.

Their assignment began with a game called “Monster Math,” which consisted of rolling a die to determine the number of heads, arms and legs the monsters would have, said Isabel Cano, the second grade class’s teacher.

“This really shows the kids

that their original creations can materialize,” she said. “The resources for young bilingual students can be limited, so it’s exciting for them to see their ideas come true.”

The second graders also w rote na r rat ive essays describing their monsters. They came up with stories that included favorite foods and things to do, and a brief explanation of what the second graders liked about their crea-tures.

The second graders were paired with 17 UNT art students, who used a variety of materials and methods to create the creatures, said Cecila Shikle, an art graduate student.

Some students used existing stuffed animals to create the monsters, while others started from scratch, using different

types of soft fabrics such as felt and fleece, she said.

The UNT students also wrote a response letter to the second graders about how the stuffed-animal monsters were created.

C a no s a id T hu r m a n approached her about having her class participate with the art project. The principal at Hodge Elementary saw the importance of having a creative collaboration with UNT, she said.

Thurman said he hopes this pilot program will grow to include other community members and more UNT art students.

“It’s not just about some grade,” said Thurman. “This project was useful for all the students involved because it showed the positive impact art has for a community.”

The organization is part of a nationwide campaign to move several universities o� of coal energy and to 100 percent renewable energy sources. Members gathered petitions to present to UNT President V. Lane Rawlins and distributed information about their campaign while wearing underwear and gasmasks. An organic cotton underwear company called PACT sent Beyond Coal 40 pairs of underwear and boxers with a specially designed pattern just for them. At 2 p.m. they marched around campus and up to the Administration Building to deliver a stack of letters to Rawlins, who was not present at the time.

Few people know the UNT men’s basketball team was not the only team going into its season as defending Sun Belt Conference Champions.

I have covered the UNT tennis team, last year’s confer-ence champions, this semester and the season resembles a roll-ercoaster.

After starting the season with a well-fought win against Oklahoma

State, the team looked to pick up where it left off.

The team w a s t h e n s t r uc k b y sickness and remained that way for most of the season, resulting in a 6-10 season.

Now, UNT is healthy and starting to find momentum with just three games left in the regular season, including two home matches.

WKU takes two of three from UNT

BY BEN BABYSenior Staff Writer

UNT senior hurdler Alysha Adams finished second in the 100-meter hurdles at the University of Texas-Arlington Bobby Lane Inv itat ional Saturday, but rema ined ecstatic Monday during prac-tice.

After all, freshman Tiffani McReynolds of Baylor, the competitor who beat her, posted the best record in the nation in her heat Saturday.

Adams broke the school record and placed third in the nation with a time of 13.08 seconds while she and other members of the UNT track and field team competed at UTA.

The Houston native said she couldn’t put into words what she was feeling after the race, but knew the fast time was coming.

“I’m not surprised that I ran that fast,” Adams said. “It was expected. I felt like I had been putting in work, and it was just a breakthrough for me.”

UNT rested many of its athletes after a grueling three-week stretch that included a meet at Texas Christian University and two meets at home. Assistant coach Sammy Dabbs said he missed half of the meet because of recruiting, but was there to watch the relays, hurdles and other events.

Dabbs downplayed the significance of last weekend’s meet.

“The month of March is a month where you’re training, and everybody’s not really running their main event yet,” Dabbs said. “[The meets in

March] are important from the standpoint that you get to see where you are.”

Da bb s s a id he w a s impressed with the way Adams ran Saturday. He said earlier in the year, Adams “never had the carrot dangling in front of her” in the indoor season, referencing the lack of elite competition she faced.

“This weekend was the first time she was ready to run fast and got a chance to run against somebody who had a time that was a little bit better than hers,” Dabbs said. “The result is what you see on Saturday.”

Like Adams, senior sprinter Brittany Blaylock posted a second-place finish in the 100-meter dash. Adams and Blaylock had the highest finishes for the Mean Green women.

For the men, senior multi-event competitor Jordan Wehr won the pole vault with a mark of 4.85 meters. Wehr was the only UNT athlete to win an event.

Senior sprinter Just in Flowers, whose primary race is the 200-meter dash, ran the 100-meter dash and finished 20th. He said he thought the team did well last week in some new events.

“It’s like a recovery week, kind of, but we get to go out and execute a race at the same time,” Flowers said. “A lot of people didn’t do a lot of things, but we did some stuff to help us continue what we’ve been doing for the last five weeks.”

UNT will compete in the Texas Relays at the University of Texas-Austin this weekend.

� e Breakdown with Brett: Tennis team needs support

If there is one thing these women are missing, it is student support at the home games. Other than family and guys from the men’s club tennis team, there’s not really much of a crowd.

Getting the student body down to the tennis complex will send them into the conference tourna-ment with a surge of confidence.

The women who had the luck of being healthy through the season have stepped up and become leaders for the team.

Junior Irina Paraschiv took over the No. 1 position early in the season and has been on a tear all year. She’s proven to be the leader on and off the court. Her game play is aggressive and fiery, which fuels her teammates’ performance and her own.

Rising stars sophomore Barbora Vykydalova and freshman Carolina Barboza came off the bench when their teammates were sick and filled in nicely for junior Paula Dinuta and senior Madura Ranganathan.

Barboza shows a lot of poten-tial and will be a force for years to come. Vykydalova has played the two spot for the Mean Green and has shown that she can play with the best competition.

She is the perfect counterpart for Paraschiv in the doubles, as they’ve given the team a boost by clinching a handful of doubles points.

Of all this season’s storylines, the one constant negative has been the lack of support the team has received during its games. The women need fans, they need support.

The next home game is April 15 at 3 p.m., so come on out!

Opinion

BRETT MEDEIROS

Sulaski and Kim Wagner. Both pitched a complete game.

Sulaski started the f irst game and gave up two earned runs on 11 UNT hits in the 5-3 WKU win. Western Kentucky’s tr iumph marked Sulaski’s ninth win of the season.

UNT (16-20, 3-9) took a 1-0 lead in the first inning after a Lady Hilltopper error allowed sophomore shortstop Lesley Hirsch to score an unearned run from second base. The Mean Green would not score again until the fourth inning when it was down 3-1.

“We didn’t play very well,” said head coach T.J. Hubbard. “We were not even on the same planet as how we played earlier in the week.”

Sophomore pitcher Brittany Simmons started for UNT and gave up four earned runs before being relieved by redshirt freshman Ashley Kirk in the fourth inning. Kirk gave up one earned run.

After the break, Kirk went

back into the pitcher’s circle to start the back half of the doubleheader. Despite only giving up one earned run, she took the loss as WKU completed the sweep with a 2-1 victory.

In the loss, sophomore pitcher Kim Wagner struck out nine UNT hitters.

“We just weren’t in the right frame of mind to go play in the second game,” Hubbard said.

SundayThe Mean Green salvaged

the weekend with a victory

Sunday, using a six-run sixth inning to win 11-7.

“[We] were a completely different team [on Sunday],” Hubbard said. “They seemed to be a lot more alive than what they were [on Saturday].”

UNT entered the bottom of the sixth inning trailing 6-5, but tied the game when f reshma n t hird basema n Brooke Foster scored from third base on a wild pitch with no outs.

S en ior f i r s t ba s em a n Ma l lor y Ca nt ler fol lowed with a two-RBI home run to center field, giving UNT a lead it would not relinquish.

“That inning was huge,” Hubbard said. “The offense definitely stepped up and hopefully kind of carries on for the next few weeks.”

Kirk picked up the win in relief for the Mean Green. She pitched 3.1 innings and surren-dered two earned runs on two hits. The win is her seventh of the season.

Freshman pitcher Ashley Kirk winds up to pitch. The team beat Western Kentucky 11-7 Sunday in Bowling Green, Ky.

“We were not even on the same planet as how we played earlier ...”

—T.J. Hubbard,Head coach

It’s like as soon as we step foot on a college campus, we demand our honorary canes and surly attitudes. I can’t count the number of still very teenage students I’ve heard reference “kids these days” as if they were ready to shake their fists and yell to keep off of the grass.

“The nation’s going to fall apart,” they’ll mutter, or “Those kids know NOTHING!”

This semester, I student-taught, trading my college classes for high school — that’s right, bell schedules, princi-pals and dress codes — and I have to say, if the future is in the hands of these students, I’m not concerned.

Spending 40 hours a week back in high school may sound like a nightmare for many people, but aside from the rampant Bieber fever and maddening Rebecca Black renditions each Friday (Friday, gotta get down, it’s Friday), it’s been something of a dream.

In the time we’ve spent together, my students have taught me so much (for instance, Justin Bieber’s birthday and near daily reminders of what true

friendship looks like). They have comprehensive

world views, if limited under-standing of science or politics. What they lack in knowledge, they more than make up for in compassion and eagerness to learn.

As we watched the tsunami hit California and the after-math of the disasters in Japan being discovered and under-stood, my students asked logical and age-appropriate questions — “How do earthquakes cause tsunamis?” “What about the nuclear plants?” “How long will it take to fix all of those buildings?” — and then some that blew my

mind: “How can we help?”It’s a far cry from what’s

depicted on television and in movies. Instead of spending their lunches painting their nails and scheming against one another, students are taking collections for disaster relief each day, eating sandwiches behind donation jars and giving up what little free time they have during their busy days.

It’s not just in the face of disaster that they shine. Students consistently open doors for one another and me. They show an uncommon courtesy beyond their years. They’re still very 14, but they care so much about

one another and the world that, sometimes, it’s easy to forget.

They stil l look at prom dresses online and drool over David Beckham, but it’s balanced with college plans and discussions on the impor-tance of volunteerism (a topic with which these kids are very familiar).

They’re like the Peace Corps with glitter nail polish and Sperrys, and I can’t wait until the day they’re in charge.

It is interesting how easily the definitions of a house and a home are mistaken as the same. A house is a building in which people live and a home is a place in which their domestic affections are centered.

In some cases, a house and a home are one. Sometimes, for whatever reason, we are put in a position where they are separate. The split between both may seem awful, but sometimes it may be for the best.

Home is a place where there are no limitations. It shelters us in a domain where affec-tion has no prejudice. It is a place where our dreams and visions continue even after we awaken from our slumbers.

This home gives us the liberty of having our arms

open wide and our hopes in one piece, and it provides the opportunity for a better tomorrow. This place provides security for us all and rids us of all restriction.

T h i s i n s t i t u t i o n h a s provided me an opportunity to bring forth all of my visions and dreams. It has set a foun-dation where I can develop and grow both intellectually and personally.

I have broken a lot of my insecurities and now I can finally discover who I am. I am in the middle of a vast d iversit y of people w it h d i f ferent i nterests, back-grounds and opinions, but we all have the same goal. I no longer feel like a refugee. Instead, I feel safe.

I am home.I am certain that my feel-

ings toward my current status are shared by many other students around me.

We must respect our peers because their struggles may be greater than we know. A good social network can provide you with the ability for success through assis-tance from each other, but by isolating yourself from everyone and everything, your obstacles will be even harder.

This location bares many names, each different within us all, but the sense of shelter and security it may provide is the same.

It is a place that deserves proper acknowledgement a nd recognit ion, for it is where we lay our dreams for the world to see.

This place is mine, this

place is yours, but more importantly, this is home.

Voter’s guide to SGAEditorial

The Editorial Board sat down with the four groups running for Student Government Association president and vice presi-dent, and here are some of our observations.

Fox and SmallwoodSarah Fox and Sean Smallwood present the perfect blend of

personality, experience and goals. As they speak to students, they have an air of authenticity that communicates their desire to act as students’ equals and to connect with people across campus.

One of Fox and Smallwood’s strongest ideas is to create a Student Advisory Board to connect students to the Board of Regents and the UNT System chancellor. The advisory board members would be able to present issues for UNT students across the System.

A concern, though, is that the plan to overhaul the SGA website might take longer than Fox and Smallwood think. They have looked into businesses that would change it in less than a year, but creating a detailed website could take a considerable amount of time. They plan to have a working website in the interim, however, which shows they are willing to solve issues that may come up while they achieve their goals.

Windham and ChavezBlake Windham and Edwin Chavez have exceptional

communication skills and provide insight into the scientific side of UNT, which is important as the university tries for Tier One status.

Windham, a biology senior minoring in chemistry and polit-ical science, works in a research lab, giving him an inside look into the impact of the funding that’s bringing researchers and instructors to UNT.

Chavez, a chemical engineering junior, understands what happens at Discovery Park and can help incorporate those students into the main Denton campus.

A problem facing Windham, however, is his tendency to be a polarizing figure.

Windham was one of the most vocal opponents of the Homecoming reform when it came up last year and has stuck to that stance as senators consider a similiar bill this spring. At different times throughout the conversation, Windham gave several, sometimes contradictory reasons for his posi-tion, including a desire to adhere to tradition, a respect for his constituency whom he said opposes the change and a concern that straight students would mock the LGBT community by running as same-sex couples if the changes were made.

By throwing out a slew of justifications for his opposition, Windham gave the impression that he was hoping one would stick. For the Board, none did.

Hill and SaundersKellie Hill and Monica Saunders want to return SGA to its

real purpose to act for student governance, and that’s a good thing. The duo plans to join with the University Program Council to put on a big event for students, such as a welcome back event, which would allow the council to focus on the fun aspect and the SGA to focus on campus issues

The Board supports this idea because it would prevent unnec-essary spending and redundant student events.

Hill and Saunders are also polished and professional candi-dates. They have experiences that qualify them for high leader-ship roles in the university, including Hill’s experience as vice president for Chi Omega, a greek sorority, and for Saunders, freshman orientation leader experience.

Hill focused a large portion of her platform and her comments on communicating a desire to reach out to students and orga-nizations. However, Hill has had the chance to interact with students in an official capacity for a year as the director of Campus Involvement. We have to wonder why she didn’t see the value in getting out and talking to students before starting her campaign.

We also worried about the pair’s vague plans to use polls and forums to determine student opinion.

Gonzalez and MooreValerie Gonzalez and Jacob Moore plan to make student

representation their major focus. The two are senators from the School of Journalism and

the College of Arts and Sciences, respectively, and they have authored legislation to create a topic-based House of Representatives for the SGA. Whether that legislation passes, the two want to visit with student organizations and search for student opinion to ensure as many student voices are heard as possible.

They also want to connect students to organizations that fit their interests, which sounds like an innovative way to get students involved in UNT.

However, Gonzalez and Moore did not clearly communi-cate their intentions and plans for their administration. A lack of clear, concise communication could prevent students from connecting with Gonzalez and Moore, which might cause a problem for the pair during the election or in the following year if the two are elected.

Go voteVoting opened Monday at www.untsga.com and will end

at 5 p.m. Friday. To vote, students must enter their EUID and their UNT password.

Student: UNT has become my home

“My students asked logical and age-appropriate questions — ‘How do earthquakes cause tsunamis?’ ‘What about the nuclear plants?’

... — and then some that blew my mind: ‘How can we help?’”

Sudoku requires no calculation or arithmetic skills. It is essentially a game of placing numbers in squares, using very simple rules of logic and deduction.

The objective of the game is to fi ll all the blank squares in a game with the correct numbers. There are three very simple constraints to follow. In a 9 by 9 square Sudoku game: • Every row of 9 numbers must in-clude all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every column of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every 3 by 3 subsection of the 9 by 9 square must include all digits 1 through 9
