The next step in an ongoing plan to realign the Enrollment and Student Services Office has been taken, and that includes changing the title of the dean of students.

Interim Dean of Students Tony Voisin will serve as in-terim assistant vice president for student affairs until another candidate fills the position, ac-cording to a university release sent out Thursday.

“The title change more ap-propriately reflects the posi-tion’s duties and responsi-bilities within the reorganized reporting structure,” Steven Johnson, vice president of En-

rollment and Student Services, wrote in the release.

Johnson told Central Michi-gan Life in January that the title change would be dependent on what responsibilities fell under the new position.

“Historically, (the dean’s po-sition) is focused on the student life functions and co-curricular activities and services. Assured-ly, there will be an appropriate level position to maintain that oversight directly and report to my office,” Johnson said in January. “It may still be a Dean of Students, or it may be a dif-ferent title for the position, de-pending on what divisions fall

Chippewas take two of three over Easter Weekend, 1B

By Alayna SmithStaff Reporter

Four commencement speakers for the spring graduation ceremonies will send off more than 3,500 graduates on May 4 and 5.

Graduates will hear from either Steven Triezenberg, director of Van Andel Edu-cation Institute, John Kul-havi, a wealth manage-ment adviser at Merrill Lynch, Lt. Gov. Brian Cal-ley, or University of Cali-fornia San Diego professor Joseph Wang.

Triezenberg will address doctoral graduates at the May 4 ceremony in War-riner Hall’s Plachta Audi-torium.

“From my perspective, a doctoral degree carries particular responsibility as leaders,” Triezenberg said. “I’m going to invoke a

call for that kind of ser-vice leader-ship for the g r e a t e s t r e s p o n s i -bilities for those with a doctoral de-gree.”

Tr i e z e n -berg will receive a Doctor of Science honorary de-gree at the ceremony for his contributions to the science and medical fields in his work with gene ex-pression.

Undergraduates in the 9 a.m. May 5 ceremo-ny at the Events Center will hear from Kulhavi, a former Board of Trust-ees chairman. Kulhavi, a 1965 CMU alumnus, will receive a Doctor of Com-mercial Science honor-

Former Central Michigan basketball player Trey Zei-gler has committed to the University of Pittsburgh.

Saturday Zeigler tweeted:

“Just committed to the Uni-versity of Pittsburgh! #hail-2pitt.” This coming after he took a visit to the university this weekend.

CBS senior basketball writer Jeff Goodman con-firmed reports, tweeting:

Broadway, Thursday evening. “Someone once said that painting is the music of the soul,” Howard said. “It makes me feel good, and when I sit down to paint I’m not sure what’s going to end up on the paper; something just says go.”

ONE WOMAN SHOW

Howard said she turned her garage into her studio where she spends hours painting whatever comes to mind.

Mount Pleasant resident Nedra Fisher said she started taking art classes with How-ard in 1986 and has watched her grow and develop her own

style ever since.“She is just amazing as an

artist,” Fisher said. “I think she is living her dream.”

A “One Woman Show” exhibit featuring Howard’s paintings kicked off on Thurs-day at Art Reach, 111 E. Broad-way St.

Howard made the 52 nature-inspired paintings using wa-tercolor, acrylics and collage. Many of the paintings had been sold in the past and were being loaned by the owners for the art exhibit. Some are for sale and others Howard said she plans to bring back home.

The oldest painting is a wa-tercolor of fish called “Minnow Hole,” which Howard made in 1988.

The exhibit will remain open to the public until April 30.

“We expect a lot of people. She is very popular in this area,” Art Reach Education and Program Coordinator Kari Ch-renka said.

Though retired from CMU, Howard has been teaching courses for Art Reach.

Chrenka said Howard is a great teacher, and her students say she is able to unlock their creativity.

“I’m just excited that they (students) are excited for it,”

Howard said. “I’m hoping that they catch the enthusiasm for it (when I start teaching them).”

Howard said she has been in-volved in the community with organizations such as fundrais-ing for Humane Animal Treat-ment Society and contributing to Art Reach programs.

Mount Pleasant resident Sue Bisard said Howard is also a host for the Road Scholar Pro-gram on Mackinac Island.

Bisard and her husband Wal-ter shadowed Howard and her sister last year as they facilitat-ed the program that drew in 36 people from 15 different states.

“She is someone to admire and fun to be around,” Bisard said. “She has a great sense of humor.”

Art Reach Executive Director Kathy Hill agreed.

“We are lucky to have her in our community,” she said. “She is a real gem.”

“Ernie Zeigler just confirmed to me that his son, Trey, will transfer to Pitt. Important get for Jamie Dixon and Pan-thers.”

Trey will have to sit out a season because of NCAA transfer rules.

Trey made it clear he was leaving the program after his father Ernie Zeigler was fired from CMU March 14.

Trey scored 1,011 points during his two-year career with CMU and finished one point behind Buffalo’s Javon McCrea for Mid-American Conference Freshman of the Year in 2010-11.

The Panthers receive a for-mer four-star recruit who was offered a scholarship to play for Michigan, Duke, Michi-gan State, Arizona, UCLA, Ar-izona State, Providence and Oklahoma back in 2010 but went with the opportunity to play with Ernie at CMU.

A few weeks ago, Zeigler tweeted about visiting Duke over the weekend and was seen on campus with a Blue Devils hat on.

Trey isn’t expected to be the only player to transfer from the program. Guard Austin McBroom has been open with his decision to transfer, although, he has not been granted a transfer request from the university.

The newly hired CMU men’s basketball coach Keno Davis will be meet-ing with each player from the team individually to talk about moving forward. Freshman Austin Keel said last week he still doesn’t know what he’ll be doing, staying or transferring.

Zeigler did not return messages seeking com-ment.

Carole Howard doesn’t consider herself an art-ist — just someone who enjoys painting.

“Every day there is something you look at and you say, ‘I need to draw that,’” Howard said.

Howard taught dance at Central Michigan Uni-versity in the physical education department for 20 years and since her retirement has dedicated much of her time to art.

“After finishing my career at the university, I went 100 miles-per-hour to learn this stuff; took art classes,” she said.

Vice President for Informa-tion Technology Roger Rehm said today’s launch date for the redesigned cmich.edu website was determined by responses from university departments who have had access to the new site since January.

“The April launch date was determined based on a number of factors,” Rehm said. “The effect on univer-sity operations and the uni-versity community, as well as improved efficiency for the many university departments that have been maintaining content in the current envi-ronment and the new envi-ronment since January 2012.”

The website was rolled out over the weekend, with many pages and functions unavail-able, as a soft launch before today. Those who visited the site got broken links that

made it more difficult to ac-cess email, Blackboard and other functions.

Shelby Township freshman Samantha Tadros said she prefers the old CMU website over the new one and said she had difficultly trying to navi-gate around the new website.

“I logged on to go look at my schedule that I had made, and everything was so confusing and difficult to find,” Tadros said. “There’s hardly any links and it’s more confusing try-ing to get around on the new website. The other layout was much easier to understand and navigate on.”

Grand Rapids junior Mary Redford said she was indif-ferent about the new website, and it might take time for her and other students to get used to the new layout.

“I’m pretty indifferent about the new one, but I liked the old one. I didn’t think

The commencement speech for the 1 p.m. May 5 ceremony at the Events Center will be given by Calley. Calley will receive a Doctor of Public Service honorary degree for his bi-partisan work in the House of Representatives since his election as the nation’s youngest lieutenant gover-nor in 2006.

This is not Calley’s first time partnering with CMU, as he served as the keynote speaker at the New Venture Competition on March 30.

Wang will speak at the fi-nal ceremony at 5 p.m. on May 5 at the Events Center. Wang will receive a Doctor of Science honorary degree for his extensive research work in the fields of nano-engineering and nanobio-electronics.

Triezenberg said he is

looking forward to having the opportunity to address the graduates and feels honored to be included in such a great community and institution.

“I have a lot of respect for Central Michigan Univer-sity and the way they have been meeting their mis-sion,” Triezenberg said. “I see that as a critical part of the academics of the state of Michigan.”

there was anything wrong with it,” Redford said. “I feel like they could have done more if they were spending money to change it.”

Blue Chip Consulting Group, hired to help with the rede-sign, has fulfilled much of its contract, and now Central Michigan University’s Office of Information and Technology is taking a more hands-on role. Blue Chip was contracted to re-ceive $550,000 for its work.

“There are still some things they (Blue Chip) have obliga-tions to,” said Kole Taylor, tech-nical writer for the Office of Information and Technology. “But as far as most of the de-velopment, it has been squared away and there is stuff we’re do-ing to make sure we are smooth for launch.”

Having OIT involved now is routine, Rehm said.

“It is standard operating procedure for OIT to take the lead role,” he said. “(We) di-rect the launch of web and application systems to en-sure continuity, functionality and connections to existing systems operate correctly. Blue Chip will assist us with the launch process and pro-

vide post-launch support as required per the contract terms.”

No extra cost will occur, be-cause OIT is involved with this phase of the website project.

“In such cases, OIT em-ployees are temporarily reas-signed from other projects on which they’re engaged, do whatever work is required of them and are compensated as they would normally be based upon their existing contracts with CMU,” Rehm said.

Refresher training courses are currently being offered to those who help edit and main-tain CMU department pages.

“This week is a refresher course week,” Taylor said. “This is for those who (went) through a full training earlier.”

He said about 250 people will go through the training ses-sions and estimated about 20 people have attended the re-fresher training.

Taylor said the website is on a platform that is easier than the previous platform.

“Our current content man-agement system is Ingeniux,” Taylor said. “(Now) we are us-ing SharePoint, and it is more powerful, easier and quicker than before.”

A study published in Janu-ary from the Georgetown Center on Education and the Workforce finds unem-ployment among job seek-ers with no better than a high school diploma at 22.9 percent.

And it doesn’t get any bet-ter for high school dropouts, whose unemployment rate sits at 31.5 percent.

While a college degree gives job seekers a formi-dable advantage over those without, the study finds not all degrees are created equal, and there are a number of factors prospective students should consider before sign-ing their major. The study cited unemployment rates for recent college graduates with a Bachelor’s degree at 8.9 percent.

However, Julia Sherlock, director of Career Services at Central Michigan University, doesn’t agree with signing a major depending on current economic climate.

“Markets go up and down in a matter of five to 10 years, and technologies tend to be on the forefront,” Sherlock said. “I think it would be al-

most impossible to decide a major based on future mar-ket needs.”

Architecture unemploy-ment is high, because the housing market went in the tank. Students shouldn’t concern themselves with the percentage rate of the un-employed but making them-selves marketable to those hiring, she said.

“The market needs those with talent,” Sherlock said. “It’s not a cookie-cutter fit in the market; it is an ever -changing creature. To pre-dict a career path based on 40 to 45 years in the market place and if there is going to be desirability for what de-gree you have is impossible.”

The career advice is stu-dents should not be worried if their major is currently at a high unemployment rate nationally, because students should be more proactive when this is going on.

“What have you done to enhance yourself at CMU?,” Sherlock said. “The more you invest in your profes-sional stuff at CMU the bet-ter you will be able to make that transition from student to professional.”

Unemployment rate among majors not an issue for many

By Brandon ChampionStaff Reporter

Providing adequate funds for high school sports has become a problem for many Michigan school districts in recent years.

On Wednesday, the Center for Global Sport Leadership at Central Michigan University will host a town hall meeting, “Sport Leadership Summit at CMU: Critical Issues in High School Sport,” to try and com-bat these problems.

The event will begin at 6 p.m. and will be held in the French Auditorium inside the Education and Health Servic-es Building.

“High school sports were a huge part of our lives,” said Alison Wright, assistant direc-tor of the Center for Global Sport Leadership. “We want to ensure the youth of Michigan have the same opportunities and privileges as we did grow-ing up.”

Educational leaders, indus-try experts and athletic ad-ministrators from around the state will address budget cuts, coach’s education, participa-tion numbers and facilities.

The idea for the conference began last semester when the

Center for Global Sport Lead-ership learned Mount Pleas-ant High School was having trouble meeting the transpor-tation costs to get its football team to the state champion-ship game at Ford Field in De-troit.

“At that point, we realized how big of an issue this was,” Wright said. “With pay-to-play becoming more and more common, we decided that we wanted to get people together to talk about it and try and figure out solutions. We also wanted to get different people to talk about what they have been doing to combat budget crises, and how they might be able to learn from each other’s tactics.”

The town hall meeting will begin with a discussion by a seven-person panel made up of area high school athletic di-rectors and administrators, in-cluding Mount Pleasant High School Athletic Director Jim Conway.

Also included will be a pre-sentation by State Senator Judy Emmons, R-Sheridan, on the impact of the government on educational sport and several video clips of athletes

food for thought

By Paulina LeeStaff Reporter

Dayglow “invaded” the Cen-tral Michigan University cam-pus twice this year to the ex-citement of students and to the dismay of administration, who have now decided to not allow Dayglow back.

The February Dayglow had more than twice the number of people in attendance com-pared to the fall event. It was also oversold by 300 tickets, said Tony Voisin, associate dean of students and director of student life.

The event, dubbed as “the world’s biggest paint party,” brought about 3,330 people to Finch Fieldhouse on Feb. 23.

According to the CMU police department, 15 people were sent to jail for various crimes and misdemeanors, and there were four misdemeanor cita-tions (i.e. minors in possession, disorderly conduct). A total of seven people were transported

to the hospital for medical treat-ment, and 35 people were treat-ed on-site for medical issues. There were 49 ejected from the event for various policy viola-tions and/or disruptive behav-ior.

“Finch is just not a good facil-ity to host Dayglow,” said Stan Shingles, assistant vice presi-dent of University Recreation and Events and Conferences. “We can’t manage it safely or effectively, and that’s based on the fact that we’ve done it twice. Plus, when we talk about the welfare of students, we realize that the type of venue we have is not conducive to that type of event.”

Shingles compared Dayglow to that of the changed rules of tailgate.

“Once we realized that tail-gate had become something we couldn’t manage, then we had to make different decisions,” he said. “This is very similar in that regard.”

But Dayglow isn’t the only

event that has not been allowed on campus.

“An outside group was try-ing to get a student organiza-tion to broker the event due to discounts enjoyed by RSOs,” Shingles said, referring to a foam party that was trying to use Finch Fieldhouse. “This pro-moter had one interest; to make money. We said no, because the dynamics were very similar to that of Dayglow, and then there were a lot of logistical discon-nects.”

Voisin said there are often requests from non-student organizations to hold various events like cage fighting and mixed martial arts, which are not approved. Many approved campus events are put on by Program Board, which receives approximately $290,000 to $300,000 each year to put to-ward events, Voisin said.

“Program Board’s charge is to bring a variety of entertainment to campus; to give students op-tions,” Voisin said. “Most shows

don’t sell out, but Program Board is not in it to make mon-ey.”

There’s a lot that goes into evaluating the types of events permitted on campus.

“We ask, ‘Do we have the proper venue, and does that par-ticular event fit philosophically with the university mission?’ Es-pecially as to how does it relate to healthy lifestyles and good citizenship and all those things that are inherent in our mission statement,” Shingles said. “We’re interested in having events that can be managed, that students and others can enjoy.”

Shingles, Voisin and others are currently working to restruc-ture the protocol for approving campus events. The new proto-col will be finished by the end of semester and posted online.

“We are committed to hav-ing a model of decision-making that supports our students to have great events on this cam-pus,” Shingles said. “That when they walk in the door, they know

it is going to be organized and safe. More importantly, they are going to walk away from the event saying ‘It (was) one of the best moments of my life.’”

Shingles said he wants every student to have a memorable and special experience at CMU.

“The people who are making

the decisions and develop this protocol are all very student- centered,” he said. “We want activity on this campus. We un-derstand how activity enhances a student’s experience on this campus.”

Dayglow will not return to CMU; ‘can’t be managed safely, effectively’

This is the first time Pi Kappa Phi and Phi Sigma Sigma have partnered with Push America and The National Kidney Foun-dation to host this type of event.

“This way of living is not very looked into at Central Michigan University, and Phi Sigma Sigma wants to help support Pi Kappa Phi in their first event,” Goodrich junior Mindy Halligan said. “It’s great, because I am very pas-sionate about raising aware-ness to stop discrimination against those with disabilities and to get more information out there to people about in-dividuals with disabilities.”

Push America is Pi Kappa Phi’s nonprofit focused on rais-ing money, awareness and serv-ing people with disabilities.

“I personally love running and being active, and I could not imagine being confined to a wheelchair and unable to do what I love so much,” Comfort said.

He said helping to host the dinner offered him the oppor-tunity to help enhance the life of another.

“The reason for putting on this type of event is not to create sympathy for people with dis-abilities but rather to create em-pathy and understanding for

those who live with these chal-lenges on a daily basis,” Warren sophomore Craig Regoni said.

Tickets to the dinner were $5 from a brother or sister or $6 at the door. Donations were also accepted, and funds benefitted Push America and The National Kidney Foundation.

“If hearing about events such as this excites you or this seems like a cause you might enjoy be-ing a part of, check out Greek Life and considering going Greek, because this is what we are about,” Comfort said.

The fraternity and soror-ity have also hosted Push-up-s4Push and Pedals4Push; both

events took place earlier this year.

“Push-ups4Push is a fund-raiser we do to raise money for Push America. We do five push-ups for every dollar donated,” Comfort said. “We have also done Pedals4Push, where we have a stationary bike where we have brothers take turns riding for a full 24 hours straight, in ef-fort to taking a stance against the ‘R’ word.”

Pi Kappa Phi fraternity and Phi Sigma Sigma so-rority teamed up to raise money for those with disabilities and to raise awareness against dis-crimination.

On Wednesday, the two hosted the Push America Empathy Dinner at Wes-ley Center.

“By providing an envi-ronment that people may come and dine with a dis-ability, we hope that they may understand what others must go through for every dinner of their lives,” said Eastpointe junior Jacob Comfort.

While the arms race continued between the West and the East af-ter the crisis was resolved, treaties against further nuclear prolifera-tion and limiting stockpiles became common.

It seemed like we learned our lesson: We must all strive for diplo-macy, yet grimly acknowledge the necessary evil of nuclear deterrence in a world where nations can be obliterated at the press of a button.

But now the global community seems to be rushing toward a simi-

lar breaking point by throwing ulti-matum after ultimatum at Iran and its nuclear development program.

Israel, the United Nations Securi-ty Council and many other interna-tional entities have cried foul at the program that Iran claims is only for peaceful development of medicine and electricity.

This is obviously false — Iran wants nukes. But why would it not?

Iran is surrounded by nuclear powers all allied amongst them-selves — not the least of which is

Israel, which refuses to confirm or deny the presence of its substantial nuclear weapons program.

Israel has not signed anti-nuclear proliferation treaties simply be-cause it does not acknowledge it has any nuclear weapons to regulate.

How can we expect Iran to be content without atomic weaponry when one of its closest and most aggressive enemies possesses an ar-senal to which the rest of the world turns a blind eye?

This editorial board in no way condones any of the actions of Iran’s dictatorial and oppressive leadership, but it does recognize a sovereign nation’s right to defend itself.

Why are we so afraid to let Iran join the nuclear club? Because we call them evil?

Moral labels are no excuse to re-fuse to recognize the perspective of a country which very correctly has an “us against the world” mentality.

We may disagree with Iran and find some of its actions contempt-ible, but it is not run by madmen.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ah-madinejad knows as well as anyone else that a nuclear first strike is an invitation for annihilation.

The only compelling reason to block Iran’s nuclear development to the point of war would als call for the eventual “liberation” of the country either way.

To this idea, we need only recall the invasion and occupation of Iraq.

Nearly a decade and the loss of tens of thousands of young Ameri-cans later, we leave a questionably self-sufficient and unstable “de-mocracy” in our wake.

Lasting national change can only come from within, and for every act of aggression the international community takes against Iran, its leaders become more justified in their isolation.

To the war hawks of the U.S. and beyond, please separate your pride from your worldview and weigh how much we stand to lose from another war fought under the ban-ner of “global security.”

It’s not worth it.

Crime and punishment: Strip search

style

Many who lived through it described the Cuban Missile Crisis as 13 days of unbroken terror.

The line separating international diplomacy from global destruction at the tips of nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missiles was never thinner.

On April 2, the Supreme Court ruled in a narrow decision that some-one arrested for any offense can be strip searched for any reason.

The cops do not need a reason to assume the arrested individual has something he or she should not have. All they need to legally order a person mole rat naked is a pair of handcuffs, a very bad sense of humor and a flashlight (for peeking).

The court’s decision was no doubt in part driven by the obvious need to allow our stressed-out and under-appreciated law enforcement officials to see a little bit of action on the job without having to tell the spouse, but it makes me wonder if they had at all considered the egregious human rights violations that could ensue.

However, in considering the issue of a majority of arrested individu-als hiding contraband in their anal cavities that is so severe it threatens a societal breakdown, it makes perfect sense in the current legal and political climate for human rights to be of no concern to anyone.

In all fairness, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito wrote in the majority opinion that exceptions to the ruling were pos-sible. They did not, of course, specify exactly what these exceptions were. That is for the legislation to decide.

The legislation, however, cannot even agree on whether or not ham is better than turkey (it’s not) or if you should throw a dishrag away once it starts to stink (you really should).

Here’s a funny joke: How many Senators does it take to change a light bulb?

Answer: Trick question. The bill appropriating funds for a new light bulb is held up in a Congressional subcommittee. Once the report is in, the bill will be filibustered to outer space so everyone will have to do their reading (and strip searching) by candlelight.

If there is a lesson to be learned in all this, it may be this: Pay your parking tickets, folks. Unpaid parking fines could lead to an arrest, which would naturally lead to a strip search to see if there is any money hidden in unlikely places that the police could confiscate to pay for all the latex gloves that will be needed to remove all of the things making free-for-all strip searches so necessary in the first place.

Here is another hilarity: This decision gives a mostly white police force even more of an upper hand by giving them the legal authority to strip search -degrade and humili-ate anyone arrested for any reason. In a country where minorities are disproportionately represented in the prison system, it is likely they are the group that will be the recipient of the majority of abuses that will result from this decision.

Oh, wait — that’s not funny at all.

The Charles V. Park Library on Central Michigan University’s campus is a beautiful place to unwind, work on assignments and throw back a few cups of coffee, right?

Wrong.They would never dare let you bring

an “open” container into their state-of-the-art landmark.

I understand the library is fancy. It’s a real nice place. I even appreciate the mirrors on the ceiling of the elevators; high-class stuff.

It’s one of the buildings on campus that caught the eye of my high school nerdy self while on the orientation tour.

But, all of that means nothing to me when I get yelled at for bringing my coffee into the building.

As someone who prefers to zone out in my bedroom or at Kaya Coffee House to write papers or articles, I wasn’t aware of the “rules” the library has set for us, apparently, children.

After telling my friend I was going to get coffee in Java City located near the first floor of the library, she informed me the “library police” will tell me to throw it out.

I thought she was crazy.But to take precaution, we both

bought our iced coffee and hid it in our backpacks as we walked up to the third floor and nestled into our study room. If the jiggling ice while walk-ing across the library didn’t blow our cover, then my obnoxious laughing about it must have.

Let you be told, five minutes and five sips after pulling my coffee out of my backpack, we had a knock on the door telling us to chug it down or throw it out; library rules.

And that’s when the Facebook and tweeting outrage started on my part.

Although many things distract me during homework sessions, using social media to release my anger about the library should not be one of them.

I pour thousands of dollars into attending this university, and they are going to tell me I can’t drink out of a cup with a straw and lid in a room with no technology and only a couple of chairs and a cold table?

I understand there are fancy old books and nice computers they want to preserve for years to come. But the only thing I could have spilled my iced coffee on was MY laptop or MY books at the place I was sitting.

Sure, I can bring a thermos with a closeable lid or a bottle with a screw top into the library. Those have no way of spilling when I take the lid off. Even if I did do that, I feel like mom and dad will come walking by telling me to reseal it before I have an “oopsie.”

Maybe prohibiting drinks at the computer stations is an acceptable policy, but when I am at an empty table with the only hazardous thing being my homework, I should be able to enjoy my overpriced coffee.

[LEttEr to thE EDItor]

It’s funny that some claim to know what God wants.

God, they say, is the creator of everything. He alone designed this expansive, elegant universe.

Certainly the force that created the atomic structure and fashioned the conditions for life must be in-credibly transcendent, they say.

So why do many who proclaim the supremacy of God often in the same breath degrade Him by claiming to understand his desires and motives?

We’re just a speck of the stardust scattered across the universe. We’re barely even a blip on the celestial radar. It is ludicrous to assert that God spends time brooding over worldly affairs, and there is no evi-dence to support this assertion.

With good intentions, people of-ten pray for the safety and success of soldiers at war. But what sort of righteous, loving God endorses the annihilation of His “greatest” cre-

ation? And despite these prayers, death and loss are still a very real part of war. Doesn’t this suggest that maybe

God isn’t listening to the selfish longings we direct at him?

Americans, who are usually more privileged than the rest of the world’s denizens, constantly ask God for more blessings. We always want more money, better health and greater comfort, and who wouldn’t? When those wishes for continued prosperity become a reality, many are quick to cite the hand of God as the catalyst.

But is a hand that favors those who already have so much really worthy of our praise and adora-tion?

The political sphere is brimming with rhetoric about what God does and does not want. God, suppos-edly, doesn’t want gay marriage. God, supposedly, thinks homosex-uality is unnatural.

If God floats through the heavens fuming because two gay people are in love, then God is as silly as the people making such narrow-mind-ed claims. An entity so supreme that it defies any coherent explana-tion ought to have bigger fish to fry.

In taking even the most cursory glance and the world we inhabit, one can see that if God exists,

He is morally bankrupt, incom-petent or just isn’t that concerned about us.

So please, if you’re ever inclined to say you know what God wants, or if you feel like you understand his motives, look around. If you’re being honest, you’ll realize you don’t know as much as you think.

Comments in response to “Academic Senate continues suspension of work toward College of Medicine curricu-lum”

GuestSo, Ross doesn’t know what the to-

tal cost is going to be? Are you kidding me? This project has been ongoing for several years now, is supposedly near completion and he doesn’t have a total cost projection? He is so out of touch. It’s time for him, Shapiro, Yoder and the board to resign, immediately.

GuestAlso, shouldn’t that Ross doesn’t

know how much CMED is going to cost be the lead or a separate story? I mean seriously.

concerned CMU studentI, for one time, disagree with the

academic senate- I agree the medi-cal school is a huge money magnet from CMU funds.. and the board should have probably raised enough money before hiring deans/ faculty for the med school, but the fact is the med school is here already... and a lot of investment has been made on it already. At this point, hindering the medical school process will only do harm to CMU (yeah, financially too)-

the senate should rather utilize its energy to help and collaborate with the medical school, so that the first group of students can be brought in, on time, in 2013. Although the sen-ate’s initial concern over transparency and financial situation is legitimate, at this point, it has become an issue of personal ego for some of the senate’s leadership/ members. Two wrongs will never make things right. More-over, in the long run, the medical school will start generating revenues to CMU, after all.

(p.s. I, by no means, am defending the President or the Board of Trust-ees.)

According to the report, fields in anthropology and ar-cheology have an unemploy-ment rate of 10.5 percent, philosophy and religious studies are at 10.8 percent, sociology 8.6 percent and journalism is at 7.7 percent.

Robert Noggle, chairman of the philosophy and religion department, pushed back on the numbers and said lump-ing the groups together can make unemployment num-bers look higher.

“During an economic re-cession, humanities are going to take a harder hit,” Noggle said.

Noggle said philosophy and religion majors are not that big on campus as a single major, and there hasn’t been a decline in the amount of students signing those ma-jors during this recession. Noggle also included a study his department did in 2010 in the report for Academic Prioritization about employ-ment rates.

“It was a mail survey, and they tend to get lower re-sponses from my under-standing,” he said. “But we have only a 3.3 percent un-employment rate.”

Brigitte Bechtold, chair-woman for the department of sociology, anthropology and social work, said the depart-ment doesn’t keep employ-ment rates for their gradu-ates, but oftentimes, students in the field go on to graduate programs. Advisement about a career depends on what stu-dents want to do when leav-ing college, Bechtold said.

“Sociology graduates may find employment in fields that are not specifically so-ciology,” she said. “For ex-ample: journalism, counsel-ing, statistical research and analysis. So, I would advise graduates to not merely look at job ads specifically for so-ciologists.”

Charles M. Hastings, as-sociate professor of anthro-pology and anthropology program coordinator, said it is an uphill struggle for those seeking an academic career in anthropology.

“(To be) an instructor at a college or university, (stu-dent) must earn a graduate degree to do so and, real-istically, needs a PhD from a strong graduate program to have a chance at the few jobs that open each year,” he said. “Academic jobs in pretty much any branch of anthro-pology are in a fiercely com-petitive arena. Some of our students do indeed go this

route and succeed.”However, in this field, there

are many non-academic jobs that can be found, too.

“There are many kinds of non-academic careers out there that draw upon what we teach our anthropology majors, and in some of these areas, job prospects are much brighter,” Hastings said. “Re-

cently, we have been modi-fying our major and course offerings in certain ways that will greatly improve the job-hunting prospects for our graduates, especially in archaeology (one of four branches of anthropology at CMU).”

Peter Cook is a Deaf perform-ing artist who is internation-ally known. Cook has traveled around the country and world with the Flying Words Project and visited Central Michigan University on Thursday to per-form for an audience of deaf, hard of hearing and those who can hear. While performing, Cook got the audience up on their feet and involved with his jokes and stories.

In order for those that could hear to attend his per-formance and understand what he was saying, an inter-preter talked through what Cook was signing. Although Cook couldn’t hear the laughter that filled the gym, he could see it through the audience’s facial expressions as they laughed at his jokes. Shepherd resident Brooke Courter, 12, was born deaf and said Cook was funny.

Cook relies on his visual ex-pressions to keep the audi-ence interested. He was ac-tive in getting the audience

involved, constantly moving around the arena while us-ing the largest expressions he could.

An ongoing strike by some American Red Cross workers is producing a huge impact on the number of blood drives the organization is having across the state.

The strike, which began March 30 and affects 65 coun-ties, is being carried out by the Lansing-based Office and Professional Employees Inter-national Union Local 459 and members of the Teamsters Lo-cal 580.

Local 459 alleges the Red Cross of unfair labor practices and wants to negotiate on health care, safety practices and other issues.

Monica Stoneking, spokes-woman for American Red Cross Great Lakes Blood Ser-vices Region, said the strike is having an enormous impact on blood drives around Michi-gan.

“(Blood drives) are being canceled and rescheduled,” Stoneking said. “It depends

on how many workers we can transport to the different loca-tions. For example, (Wednes-day) we had 24 blood drives scheduled, but were only able to hold two in our region.”

Stoneking said blood sup-plies are already low, but the work stoppage has made it worse.

“Every day, just in the Great Lakes region, we have to col-lect 700 units of blood, but we aren’t able to do that,” Stonek-ing said. “When we’re only holding two blood drives, that’s about 600 or 650 units of blood we’re not able to collect.”

She said if the strike contin-ues to go on, the blood supply will vanish sooner rather than later in the Great Lakes region if demand remains the same.

Local 459 Service Represen-tative Lance Rhines said that doesn’t have to happen if the Red Cross comes to the nego-tiating table.

“They say that they can im-port the blood from any of the three dozen regions around the country,” Rhines said. “We didn’t want to strike. We want-ed a contract. We wanted to avoid this at all costs, but they left us no choice by refusing to negotiate.”

Local 459 has been without a contract since 2008 and has had two three-day strikes over the past four years. Rhines said the Red Cross has refused to negotiate in good faith.

“The Red Cross refuses to bargain over health care, re-tirement or any mandatory subjects of bargaining,” Rhines said. “They say they won’t bargain over it now. They said they’ll give us what they want to give us, and that’s it.”

The Red Cross and Local 459 are set to come to the negotiat-ing table on Wednesday.

The number is now eight – as in eight school records broken by the Central Michi-gan track and field team in the outdoor and indoor season this year.

Two of the new records set belong to distance runner Holly Anderson. During the indoor track and field season, she ran a school record-break-ing time of 16:49.93 in the 5,000 meter.

Anderson had a time of 34:45.70 in the 10,000 meter Saturday, beating the previous school record of 35:23.59.

Her time was 25 seconds faster than the time she was shooting for.

“(The record) was in the back of my mind, but it wasn’t really my focus,” Anderson said. “I was just trying to run as fast as I could, and it just so happens that I really exceeded

what I thought I could do.”Her time placed her 26th

overall in the Stanford Invita-tional in Palo Alto, California.

Anderson anxiously awaited word on March 28 on whether she would be invited to Palo Alto for her senior season after just missing the cut her junior season. She checked online repeatedly for the invite and found out from a teammate that she would be making the trip.

“I was really excited to be considered worthy of the meet,” Anderson said. “Not worthy maybe, but just to be accepted into it.”

Saturday marked her first

meet of the outdoor season.“I have a lot of things I want

to accomplish still. It’s not like I’m happy for that for the sea-son,” she said. “But for now, I’m really happy about where I am starting.”

Other CMU athletes ex-celled Saturday, setting new personal best times.

Senior Veronica Garcia and redshirt freshman Kyle Stacks finished faster than their pre-vious career best in the 1,500m and the 5,000m, respectively.

Garcia’s time was 4:39.33. Stacks finished with a time of 14:26.17.

The Central Michigan base-ball team took two of three from Toledo over Easter week-end, winning on Friday and Saturday before dropping Sun-day’s finale 10-9.

The Chippewas (14-18, 5-4 MAC) were able to secure the series on Saturday but couldn’t finish the sweep Sunday, drop-ping a 10-9 slugfest to the Rock-ets (13-18, 4-5 MAC).

“Sweeping is what you need to do,” head coach Steve Jaksa said. “Today the guys are down a little bit, but we can look back and say we won two out of three.”

It looked as if a sweep was in the works after five innings of play Sunday after CMU posted four runs to take a 9-5 lead on UT .

But the Rockets plated five runs in the sixth to get the 10-9 win.

“On a day like today, with the wind blowing like it was, we needed to play a little better on the defensive side,” Jaksa said. “We opened a couple doors, es-pecially after just scoring four runs to go up 9-5.”

The Chippewas recorded three errors on a day in which the wind was blowing 20-30 mph out into left field consis-tently.

“It’s the game, and you have to deal with the conditions,” Jaksa said. “Each team had to play in those conditions, and neither team was spotless.”

CMU was able to relax a little bit going into Sunday because of its wins on Friday and Satur-day, which clinched the series.

The Chippewas had a couple stellar outings by their starting pitchers in the first two games.

Senior Zach Cooper record-ed the win Friday after going seven innings and allowing just three hits, and junior Patrick Kaminska made his first career start Saturday. He picked up the win behind seven 1/3 in-nings and allowed just five hits.

Cooper and Kaminska didn’t do it on their own in the first two games.

On Friday, junior first base-man Jordan Adams hit two home runs and had three RBIs as he and his teammates re-corded seven runs and had 11

hits in support of Cooper.“Any time you put the team

in a position to win, it feels great,” Adams said Friday.

Saturday Kaminska was aid-ed by four runs in the final two innings of at-bats for CMU.

“It’s really big to get the sec-ond win of the series,” Kamin-ska said Saturday.

The Chippewas move to one game behind Eastern Michigan for first place in the Mid-Amer-ican Conference West Division.

They will travel to Ypsilanti to take on the Eagles next week-end after playing a game at Oakland University Wednes-day.

The Central Michigan gym-nastics team’s season ended during the Easter holiday weekend in Seattle, Wash. at the NCAA Regional.

The Chippewas scored a 194.150 on Saturday, finishing sixth out of six teams compet-ing.

Despite finishing last in the competition, head coach Jerry Reighard said he was very proud of his team’s perfor-mance.

“I thought we had a great meet,” Reighard said. “We didn’t count any falls. We had very good complete routines. I think we suffered a little bit, because everyone knew that we weren’t one of the top con-tenders.”

Southeastern Conference members Alabama and Loui-siana State took the top two spots with scores of 197.025 and 196.075. The two teams will advance to the nation-al championship April 20 through the 22 at the Gwin-nett Center in Duluth, Ga.

CMU’s top two gymnasts, senior Kristin Teubner and sophomore Brittany Petzold, struggled on the balance beam. Teubner scored a 9.5, while Petzold scored a 9.675. Both gymnasts finished with all-around scores of 38.825.

The experience for Petzold will pay off down the road in Reighard’s eyes.

“(Petzold) gained very valu-able experience for a sopho-more,” Reighard said. “We were excited to see her do so well.”

A bright spot for the Chip-pewas was freshman Halle Moraw, the third all-arounder.

Moraw finished with a score of 39.100 and scored a 9.7 or better in all four of her events.

Reighard said he is excited to have Moraw come back next year.

“It was a great experi-ence for her,” Reighard said. “She’ll be back many times, and I think she gained a lot of knowledge. She had a great routine.”

CMU’s downfall was the floor event. The team scored their third-lowest point total this season with a 48.150 in the event.

Reighard said he believed having to go first on the floor hurt the team.

“We had a good day on floor,” Reighard said. “We

Softball splits Easter weekend 2-2By Ryan ZukeSenior Reporter

The Central Michigan soft-ball team concluded a 2-2 weekend Sunday after fall-ing to Northern Illinois 4-2 at Margo Jonker Stadium.

CMU took a 2-1 lead into the top of the seventh inning, but a three-run frame by NIU took away any hopes of a win-ning weekend for the Chippe-was.

After a hit-by-pitch, sopho-more Morgan Yuncker surren-dered a two-run home run to Dani Parrish, which proved to be the game-winner.

Freshman Chelsea DeLami-elleure went 2-2 and drove in both runs for the Chippewas.

“We played very well defen-sively,” DeLamielleure said. “We just have to string our hits together and slam the door at the end of the game.”

Yuncker earned the loss and both her and junior Kara Dornbos were 1-1 on the weekend.

“I think Morgan does a great job,” assistant coach Joanna

Lane said. “She was able to keep them off balance with really two or three pitches, and that was good. That last inning she let one pitch get away from her, and unfor-tunately, that bit us. Bottom line, she pitched well enough to win, and we have a respon-sibility to our pitchers to give them some run support.”

Junior Macy Merchant led the offense with six hits in the

four games.The Chippewas (16-16, 3-4

Mid-American Conference) also lost to NIU Saturday, 5-1.

The Huskies scored three runs in the third, one in the fourth and one in the seventh inning en route to the win. Se-nior Molly Coldren drove in the Chippewas lone run with an RBI single in the sixth.

were the first team up, and I think the judges were very tight for us. Our scores weren’t what we thought they should be, but our per-formances certainly were.”

Moraw was the only gym-nast of the six who compet-ed for CMU to score a 9.7 or better on the floor exercise.

While the team struggled on the floor, they flourished on the bars.

Four CMU gymnasts scored a 9.8 or better on the bars. Petzold led the way scoring a 9.85.

The Chippewas will lose Senior Gymnast of the Year in the MAC in Teubner

and injured Samantha Pi-otrwoski.

They return juniors to be Petzold and Meaghan Mc-Whorter, with a big sopho-more group that includes Moraw, Becca Druien, Tay-lor Noonan, Kylie Fagan and Tori Garcia. CMU will also benefit from getting back a few gymnasts who were out for the season with injuries.

On Friday, CMU earned a pair of one-run victories over Western Michigan.

In game one, the Broncos broke a scoreless tie in the top of the fourth with an RBI single by Courtney Rous-seau, but the Chippewas responded with a run in the bottom of the frame.

Tied in the bottom of the seventh, junior Summer Knoop hit a walk-off single, sending the Chippewas home victorious.

On the second half of the doubleheader, WMU jumped out to a 5-0 lead after three innings. CMU bounced back and scored three in the fourth, one in the fifth and three in the sixth to complete a 7-6 comeback win.

“I think that’s huge, and we preach that you can’t hit a five-run homerun, so we don’t have to try,” Lane said.

“Our team bought into that, and we were able to do that. And the next game we’re be-hind, we can have the expe-rience to draw from.”

Merchant, Coldren and senior Rachael Hensel each had two hits in the win.

CMU will play a double-header against Oakland Tuesday with game one starting at 2 p.m. at Margo Jonker Stadium.

“I think coming off the Friday games, you’re in such an elated level and really ready to make a statement to get ahead in the stand-ings,” Lane said. “And then you have a let down on Sat-urday and Sunday. We’re dis-appointed but we still don’t want to take away from those Friday games. We need to use Tuesday as a tune-up against Oakland and going into the Toledo and BG se-ries strong trying to regain position a little closer to the top of the standings.”
