“…the great state University of Wisconsin should ever encourage that continual and fearless sifting and winnowing by which alone the truth can be found.”

Badger mistakes lead to LSU comebackBy Zach RastallTHE DAILY CARDINAL

HOUSTON—When sopho-more running back Corey Clement scored a two-yard touchdown early in the third quarter to put Wisconsin up 24-7, it seemed as if the Badgers were well on their way to picking up a monumental win for not only their football program, but for the Big Ten as a whole.

But a fake punt by LSU and an injury to UW redshirt senior nose guard Warren Herring changed everything, as the Tigers (1-0) flipped the script in the second half to erase the 17-point deficit and defeat Wisconsin (0-1) 28-24 in the AdvoCare Texas Kickoff at NRG Stadium.

The Badgers came flying out of the gates to start the game, taking a 7-0 lead with 9:05 left in the first quarter on a 45-yard jet sweep touchdown run by sophomore wide receiver Reggie Love. They extended that lead to 10-0 under

four minutes later when fresh-man kicker Rafael Gaglianone drilled a 51-yard field goal.

LSU answered back immedi-ately on an 80-yard touchdown pass from sophomore quarter-back Anthony Jennings to sopho-more wide receiver Travin Dural, which came just 20 seconds after Gaglianone’s field goal.

A 14-yard touchdown run by redshirt junior Melvin Gordon midway through the second quar-ter gave Wisconsin a 17-7 advan-tage at halftime, and the Badgers picked up right where they left off to start the second half.

Gordon ran for 63 yards on UW’s first play of the third quar-ter, helping set up Clement’s touchdown run.

However, that drive turned out to be the end of Wisconsin’s success on offense.

On the ensuing LSU posses-sion, head coach Les Miles, who is well known for his risk-taking tendencies, called a fake punt

with his team facing 4th and four at their own 43-yard line. The gamble paid off, and the Tigers ended up getting field goals on back-to-back possessions.

But the real turning point for the Badgers came near the end of the third quarter, when Herring went down with a knee injury. With Herring and redshirt senior defensive end Konrad Zagzebski, who was carted off the field in the first quarter with a neck injury, both out of the game, the UW front seven suddenly was unable to stop LSU’s rushing attack after stifling it throughout the first half.

The Tigers scored two fourth-quarter touchdowns, including a 28-yard touchdown run by senior running back Kenny Hilliard with 9:41 remaining to give them the lead for the first time in the game.

Though the injuries to Herring and Zagzebski certainly hurt, Wisconsin head coach Gary Andersen wasn’t ready to use it as an excuse for his team’s collapse.

“I guess we could use that as a crutch if we wanted to, but we’ve got enough kids to go out and play,” Andersen said. “It was very tough to lose Warren and Zags; they’re leaders, they’re great football players and I hope we get them back soon.”

The go-ahead touchdown was set up when UW redshirt junior quarterback Tanner McEvoy threw his first of two fourth-quarter interceptions. McEvoy had a disastrous outing in his first start as the Badgers’ quar-terback, completing just 8 of 24 passes for 50 yards.

“This was his first start, his first big game against an SEC opponent,” Clement said. “I believe he stuck it out very strongly, and he’ll have better moments in our next games.”

But perhaps the most frustrat-ing part of Wisconsin’s struggles for Badgers fans was the notable absence of Gordon for much of the second half. Gordon ran for

146 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries during the game, but only got three more touches after his 63-yard run on UW’s first drive of the third quarter.

Though many speculated that Gordon may have suffered an injury early in the second half, Andersen shot down that rumor in their postgame interviews, even saying he “didn’t know” why Gordon only had four rush-es in the second half.

“Coaches’ choice, Melvin was perfectly fine,” Clement said. “I can’t really say any-thing about that. Melvin has his time and I have my time, and I just tried to make the most out of my opportunities.”

The second-half collapse was both frustrating and extremely disappointing for Wisconsin, who appeared to be on the verge of picking up one of the biggest non-conference wins in school history.

As a college student and budding adult, one can be eas-ily overlooked. In the University of Wisconsin System, however, ignoring the rights of a student is against the law.

“Wisconsin is a unique institu-tion in which students have the

right to be at the table in conver-sations that impact student life, interests and services,” University of Wisconsin-Madison senior David Gardner said.

Gardner served as chair of the 2013-’14 session of Associated Students of Madison, the governing body of UW-Madison that is respon-

sible for representing students’ interests in university and sys-tem-wide decisions.

The existence of ASM and overall student rights in UW System decision-making is out-lined in Wisconsin’s statutes, which mandate that students are entitled to a say in matters con-cerning their own education path

and relevant policy changes. But Gardner said state law

is not always enough to ensure the presence of a student voice on issues impacting students.

In Spring 2014, on the tail of stu-dent approval for the Recreational Sports Master Plan, conversations with university leaders took place to decide a change to the plan

that could have impacted student access to one of campus’s larger facilities, the SHELL.

Instead of Recreational Sports turning over the facility to University Athletics’ control for renovation in 2021, propos-als were made to shift owner-

Board of Regents approves biennial budget planEmily GerberTHE DAILY CARDINAL

In the first of many steps to develop Wisconsin’s overall biennial budget, the University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents unanimously approved a three-part plan aimed at fostering growth in the state’s economy and talent Aug. 21.

The “Talent Development Initiative” plan outlined three areas for the body and state to be more successful: the talent path, the tal-ent infrastructure and the talent-based economy.

“We have a talent gap in Wisconsin and it’s holding back our economy,” UW System President Raymond Cross said. “To grow, our economy badly needs more high-impact talent.”

Cross cited the lack of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics courses available at UW-Madison as one issue with the current talent-fostering infrastruc-ture and said more work can be done with K-12 partnerships to prepare students for a better higher educa-tion path. Expansions of the UW

Flexible Option and online programs are also incorporated into the plan.

“It’s a vision that capitalizes on the UW System’s power and potential to provide transformative change—change that improves the social and economic well-being of our state, and in the process ele-vates Wisconsin’s influence around the globe,” Cross said.

The proposal outlines $42.3 million in UW funds and $95.2 million in new state funds for the system improvement.

While Cross said the plan aims to improve the system, he added it will also benefit the state of Wisconsin overall.

“It is no longer enough to be organized as a system of univer-sities; we must also perform as a system, leveraging the collective power of our universities in ways that significantly add value and produce results for all of our stake-holders,” Cross said. “I believe we must adapt. We must change.”

Cross said the proposal was created with input from UW leaders, chancellors, students and Wisconsinites.

“The Board wants the UW System to leverage all of its resourc-es and leadership to improve Wisconsin’s economy and its quality

of life,” Board of Regents President Michael Falbo said. “This plan will launch that effort in a more targeted and systematic manner.”

With the board’s approval, the plan will be sent to Gov. Scott Walker for consideration during his budget creation process.

New housing director Jeff Novak settles into life at UW-Madison

Incumbent Paul Soglin to face two challengers in mayoral electionsBy Dana KampaTHE DAILY CARDINAL

A city known for its strong political ties, Madison will have the opportunity to redefine itself as residents look to elect a new leader in the 2015 mayoral election.

Madison voters will have a choice of three candidates in the elections: current mayor Paul Soglin is running for re-election against Ald. Scott Resnick, District 8, and former Ald. Bridget Maniaci, District 2.

Soglin has been elected seven times in city mayoral elections and three times as a Common Council member. The mayor served on the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and rallied against the active participation of U.S. military advisers in Vietnam dur-ing his time at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

As a UW-Madison graduate student, Soglin was elected to the

city’s Common Council and later elected as the youngest mayor in Madison’s history in 1973.

Resnick is the Common Council President Pro Tempore and won a District 8 Common Council seat in 2013, representing the area between Babcock Drive and Lake Street, which covers some off-campus housing and all university residence halls. He offi-cially announced his candidacy for mayor in July.

In the 2013 elections, Resnick said he was especially proud of the campus safety projects, including new city lighting that he was able to push through the city council despite opposition. Resnick also graduated from UW-Madison in 2009.

The third candidate, Maniaci, filed to run for mayor July 2. Her campaign platform includes sup-

In addition to its usual quota of 200 residents, Slichter Hall also opened its doors to the office of University of Wisconsin-Madison’s new Housing Director Jeff Novak in preparation for the upcoming school year.

Novak, who comes to

UW-Madison from the University of Central Florida, has worked in residence life for more than two decades.

He began his work in housing operations as a resident assistant during his undergraduate career at the University of Florida-Gainesville, a position he did not anticipate would lead to his even-

tual profession. Since then, Novak earned both a masters and a doc-torate degree in student personnel.

Novak said he decided to come to UW-Madison largely because of the housing staff’s commit-ment to serving students, adding that he was also drawn by the university’s residential learning communities and the opportu-

nity to work with UW-Madison’s in-house dining service.

Since moving to Madison in the middle of this summer, Novak said he has observed University Housing’s dedication to quality service first-hand.

“I’ve been left with a fantastic housing program, with outstand-ing staff dedicated to our housing

program, to our mission, to our core values, and really to mak-ing the residential experience the best that it can be,” he said.

As he settles into his new lead-ership position, Novak said he intends to focus on providing stu-dents with continued education about alcohol safety.

In response to a recent incident in which a UW-Madi-son student was transported to detox with a .338 blood alcohol content, university police relea-sed a statement advising stu-dents to exercise caution if con-suming alcohol.

It is important to consider that consuming excessive amount of alcohol can put students at risk,

both academically and physically. The chance of sexual violence, rob-beries, batteries and other assaults increase when combined with drin-king, according to the release.

If choosing to drink, university police urge students to do so lega-lly and in moderation, all the while making sure to take care of the safety of those around them.

State and federal courts shift Wisconsin’s political scene By Andrew HahnTHEDAILYCARDINAL

Wisconsin’s state Supreme Court and federal judges from around the state released four major decisions and orders this summer, changing the political landscape before the statewide election Nov. 4.

Gay MarriageIn June, U.S. District Judge

Barbara Crabb struck down Wisconsin’s eight-year consti-tutional ban on same-sex mar-riage, sparking a flurry of mar-riages across the state before state Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen appealed her decision and successfully argued for a halt to any more marriages.

The case has been combined with a similar case concerning Indiana’s ban on same-sex mar-riage and will be ruled on by a panel of three federal judges in the coming months.

Van Hollen said this sum-mer he expects the U.S. Supreme

Court to settle Wisconsin’s ban and those of other states in its next term.

John Doe InvestigationLater that month, Federal

Appeals Judge Frank Easterbrook ordered the release of hundreds of pages of documents from the now-halted John Doe investigation into alleged illegal campaign coordination by members of Gov. Walker’s staff during his 2011 recall campaign.

The documents revealed that prosecutors accuse R.J. Johnson, an advisor to Walker, of coordinating campaign financing through dozens of conservative groups.

Easterbrook is reviewing a lawsuit by the Wisconsin Club for Growth, a conservative group arguing the John Doe investiga-tion is politically motivated and should be ended permanently.

Collective Bargaining

In July, the Wisconsin Supreme Court upheld Gov. Scott Walker’s signature union legislation that ended virtually all collective bargaining rights for public sector unions in the state, ending the three-year legal dispute once and for all.

The decision followed a U.S. Supreme Court decision that also ended collective bargain-ing protections for many service employees in several states.

Voter IDThe Wisconsin Supreme

Court also upheld Wisconsin’s new requirement that voters must show photo identification in order to vote, even after a fed-eral judge struck down the law in April.

Van Hollen appealed the April decision, which rendered the Supreme Court’s July deci-sion ineffectual. Wisconsin vot-ers will not need to show photo ID at the polls in this fall’s gen-eral election Nov. 4.

Summer polls indicate close race for governor’s office

As students begin classes for the 2014 fall semester, the topic on everybody’s lips is the rapidly pro-gressing gubernatorial race between incumbent Republican Gov. Scott Walker and his Democratic chal-lenger, Mary Burke.

According to an August Marquette University Law School Poll, 47.5 percent of reg-istered voters are supporting Walker, while Burke is backed by 44.1 percent. This can be compared to statistics recorded in July, when Burke had 44.8 percent of the support, with Walker beating her by only one percentage point. Among those who said they are certain to vote in the elections, Burke has 48.6 percent while Walker has fallen behind by just 2.1 percent.

Voter involvement is another defining factor and 75 percent of respondents said they are abso-lutely certain to vote, of which 77 percent are Republicans and

82 percent are Democrats. “Some registered voters

may cast a ballot who today are not certain that they will,” said professor of Law and Public Policy at Marquette University, Charles Franklin. “On the other hand, even among people registered who said they are absolutely certain to vote, we know that a portion of them won’t actually do so.”

When it comes to jobs, 48 percent of registered vot-ers said Wisconsin is lagging behind other states in job cre-ation, while 34 percent said the state is adding jobs at about the same rate as other states.

Overall, 54 percent of Wisconsin voters said the state is headed in the right direction while 42 percent said the opposite, according to the same poll.

The election is scheduled to take place Nov. 4.

ship in 2017, the same time the Southeast Recreational Facility is set to undergo construction, said Gardner. This would have put students out of two major facilities, leaving minimal opportunity for workout space and intramural access.

Through advocacy and orga-nization, student groups worked with university leaders to express their desires and set a new date in 2019 that benefits students.

“At the end of the day, the stu-dent voice prevailed,” Darrell Bazzell, vice chancellor for Finance and Administration, said.

David Vines, 2014 UW-Madison graduate and former chair of ASM’s Student Services Finance Committee, said it is situations such as the SHELL incident that show how important it is for stu-

dents who have a passion to further student advocacy and power to get involved.

“We have to make sure that people who care about these issues really see this as a place where they can advance and make this a better university; not just for themselves, but for the students that follow after-wards,” Vines said.

While Gardner said he was happy the SHELL situation was resolved and students could have their rightful place at the table, he said this is not the first time students have had to fight for their spot in shared gover-nance, and students should not stop fighting.

“We are a part of this insti-tution, we shape it,” Gardner said. “We have a responsibility to stand for our fellow students and for ourselves when deci-sions are made.”

port for women’s rights and mar-riage equality, according to her social media accounts. Her for-mer aldermanic district covers a portion of the isthmus along Lake Mendota, including East Washington and Gorham Avenues, near the state Capitol. Maniaci is also a UW-Madison graduate.

“I see police logs daily and it’s not unusual to see a stu-dent transported to detox for alcohol intoxication, and one is too many,” he said.

During the past week, University Housing, which houses approximately 94 per-cent of the freshman class as well as a fraction of upper-classmen, navigated the suc-cessful move-in of thousands

of students.“Having been here for six

weeks over the summer, it’s great to see the energy and pulse of the campus back,” he said.

Novak, who refers to himself as a sports fanatic, said he looks forward to the football team’s first home game this weekend, as well as to getting to know Madison in the coming months.

“It’s been a tremendous six weeks,” Novak added. “I feel like I’m at home already.”

Welcome, Badgers, to the start of another year. The beginning of the semester is a perfect time for new resolutions.

Getting involved in one of the many clubs on campus is great. Making a point of hitting the gym is cool, if you're into that life. But, I have another resolution for you. This year, go to brunch.

In case you haven't noticed, brunch is spectacular.

A combination of breakfast and lunch, brunch is the only meal where I can order some-thing sweet and savory, drink ten cups of coffee, and drench every-thing in syrup, without being judged one little bit.

Now, I may be somewhat more enthusiastic about brunch than the average person, but the point remains: brunch is an event that every Badger should take part in regularly.

Madison has about 10,000 brunch spots, and I intend to cross them all off my list.

It's a tough job, but someone has to do it. And so, I'm vol-unteering myself as The Daily Cardinal Bruncher.

Ever hear of a quick brunch? Nope. That's called breakfast, and the two could not be any more different.

Don’t put it in the same cat-egory as lunch, either. Coffee is not acceptable at lunch.

There is no such discrimina-

tion at brunch; it is accepting of every food, every drink.

The real concept of brunch-ing, however, is to spend time with someone you care about in a relaxed environment, along-side some fantastic food that you would never realistically make for yourself.

Brunch is often spontaneous, but it shapes the rest of the day.

So, go for it. Between new courses and syllabi, Badger foot-ball games and Group-X classes, take a couple hours these first few weeks of school to brunch with someone you missed over the summer.

Go even further and invite some-one who hasn’t experienced the true beauty of brunch. Try a new place together, bond over bacon.

Drench some pancakes in syrup, keep the coffee refills coming, and take a breath of that wonderful, brunchful Madison air.

Catch up, recharge, and remember how lucky we are to be back in one of the best places on earth.

Welcome home, Badgers. And welcome to Brunch'd Together.

Together, they’re my kingdom for the ability to completely redo, revamp and restyle my wardrobe from season to season and year to year.

Unfortunately, as a college stu-dent, my tiny apartment’s closet space and waning bank account aren’t on the same page.

For this reason, I find it extremely valuable to narrow down what pieces will be the most versatile and add the most charac-ter to my already exciting collec-tion of clothes.

On one hand, it’s important to buy things that aren’t too simi-lar to what you already have. On the other, the worst thing is to buy something that never loses its tags; something that happens more frequently when we try to step out of our style comfort zone.

The best way to combat this is to first picture the piece under consideration in your closet.

If you can create at least two to three new complete looks with it, chances are you’ll get solid and worthwhile wear.

Like anything else, there are always exceptions, but I’ve gener-ally found success when I keep this rule in the back of my mind.

Of the four pieces listed here, my goal is that at least one fits your style and aesthetic enough to find its way into your wardrobe.

Transitioning from summer to fall can be difficult in regard to both the array of temperatures, as

well as vastly different styles. The following pieces do

nothing but cut down outfit debate time and furthermore, serve as inspiration for curating a more versatile (but also per-sonal) wardrobe.

Fatigue JacketThe beauty here is ease. True, the waning days of

September may be too humid for a jacket, but as the nights cool down and long sleeves become a must, you’ll love this piece’s ability to pair with a number of dresses and skirts, any wash denim wash, and even the occasional romper.

During the day, the olive color looks effortlessly chic with a pair of white skinnies or later in the fall, a darker shade of denim.

Go fitted for a more feminine feel or buy from a men’s store for a truly borrowed-from-the-boys look.

Leather SkirtIf I had to live with one skirt

for the rest of my life, it would be my black leather skirt. If I could choose two, my next pick would be my brown leather skirt.

Talk about versatility. I’ve worn these skirts to class, for a night out and even for an interview.

The black pairs excellently with matching tights if the night is colder than usual and the leather of both looks great with silk or any other blousy material.

Additionally, shoes are a total cakewalk. Flats, boots, pumps, you

name it; anything but flip-flops or sneakers and you’re an instant ten.

Floral pantsThe bold print here is of

incredible importance. I realize the silliness of such

a statement but if you aren’t immediately drawn to it, you won’t wear these pants.

This is because with floral pants, they are the absolute star of an outfit.

For this reason they’re the ideal transition piece: whether you pair them with a pink tank top or pink sweater is only depen-dent on the weather.

If it works with one in the summer, you know already it works in the fall.

BootiesIf you don’t have a pair of

booties, you don’t know what you’re missing.

Whether suede or leather, they can instantly polish any look with an unexpected pop of edge.

I’d recommend buying them in a neutral color so that they can easily replace the neutral sandals everyone owns once open toed footwear becomes unrealistic.

Similar to the fatigue jacket, pairing with white jeans is an excellent way to bring summer and fall into one cohesive and on-trend look.

Really kill it by wearing an easier oxford-style top with white jeans, a fatigue jacket, and cognac leather booties.

They say the start of a new school year is the tultimate clean slate, and for both my person-al and academic journey, this couldn’t be more true.

Although I will technically be going into my sophomore year, it is the first time I’ll be lucky enough to declare myself a Badger.

I’ve made a complete 180 in regard to my academic path, as most university stu-dents at some point do—tran-sitioning from a Marketing major at UW-Milwaukee to Interior Design (or is it Interior Architecture? Not that it matters) here at UW-Madison.

As a transfer student my famil-iar life has also been slightly uproot-ed, going from a school 20 minutes from my hometown to one a little bit further -- all for the sake of design.

Contrary to what many may assume, this change was not driv-en by the recent phenomena of Pinterest-ing and Tumbl-ing,.

I can even promise that

it wasn’t because Kourtney Kardashian is “literally obsessed” with interior design these days.

My choice has roots back to an 8-year-old me who wanted to redecorate her room for the first time, and again the next year, and again, another 4 or 5 times.

The years continued up until this very summer where I rede-signed my childhood room yet again, but for the last time.

So truly, I need to make this pas-sion a career just to get a fix for my apparent addiction.

Needless to say I am elated, as well as anxious, to learn more about design, and furthermore, to eventu-ally make it an occupation rather than an imemensely enjoyed hobby.

Even more, I look forward to sharing my experiences as a transfer student in addition to my trials and tribulations within the classroom with my fellow SoHE students. and any other readers eager to learn about a major new to us both.

Here’s to a new year, a fresh start and taking advantage of the opportunity to redesign.

SUMMER MUSIC FESTIVALS 2014Rap and females dominate at PitchforkBy Cheyenne LangkampThe Daily CarDinal

Pitchfork is certainly one of the smaller summer gigs to catch, but that’s part of its charm. With only three stages that are all within walk-ing distance, it’s easy to see at least a portion of every act of interest.

But for those who hope to turn every live show into a party, Pitchfork might be disappointing at times. So much of the experience at festivals depends on the vibes emanating throughout the crowd, which at best can create a similar experience for the last row as those pushed tight against the barricade in the first. At times I felt like I was at a show with statues rather than

live human beings. Still, for rap fans in particu-

lar, this might have been the best investment of your summer. There seemed to be an endless supply of top-notch names, start-ing with a hype Danny Brown set early Saturday and ending with the unparallelled Kendrick Lamar Sunday night. A personal favorite came in the form of ScHoolboy Q on Sunday afternoon. The crowd was loosened up by this point and more than willing to nod along to “Collard Greens” and “Studio.”

After an insane performance at Bonnaroo earlier this summer, Pusha T pulled a complete 180 and for one reason or another

only played 30 minutes of an hour long slot.

For its size, this year’s Pitchfork also managed to present a good bit of variety, offering up mellow shows like Neutral Milk Hotel alongside uncomfortable yet enter-taining screechers like Deafheaven.

Pitchfork also hosted a slew of unique female performers such as Grimes and St. Vincent, both of whom showcased some of the most commanding stage presence of the festival.

Those who are new to the fes-tial scene or prefer smaller pro-ductions with room to explore new talent should keep an eye out for next year’s line up.

The dream of the nineties is alive and well at this year’s Lollapalooza

Bonnaroo brings good vibrations for allBy Cheyenne LangkampThe Daily CarDinal

For fans of live music, Bonnaroo is heaven on earth. Though some may have qualms with the festival due to its massive size and the inherent impossibility of seeing all you’d like to see, the festival’s capac-ity allows for an experience unlike its competitors.

It’s important to have an open mind and be willing to end up at whichever show the moment takes you to; these might end up being some of the best, because there’s no feel-ing like moving to the beat of a favorite artist with 90,000 other people.

As someone who came of age to the tunes of the early 2000s, there could not have been a better headlining combo than Kanye West and Jack White. Both stand out as passionate performers who throw them-selves entirely into their craft and are clearly (and rightfully) opinionated about their trade.

Though it seemed like hordes of people began leaving Ye’s set during his infamous rants, it was a refreshing reminder that although the tracks sounded impeccable, we were in fact at a live show.

Both artists drew on their wealth of options. West show-cased the variety of sounds his discography boasts, from “Heartless” to “Can’t Tell Me Nothing,” dropping verses

from his featured tracks along the way. White showed off his solo skills, while taking detours to play favorites from The White Stripes and The Raconteurs catalogs.

Bonnaroo also played host to a plethora of British acts that have been tearing up the

music scene lately, including Arctic Monkeys, CHVRCHES, Disclosure and Sam Smith to name a few.

Bonnaroo performances are an experience unlike any oth-er—a must attend for any music addict who can get past the dust, heat and fear of missing out.

By Emily GerberThe Daily CarDinal

The 90s were alive in Chicago: though I knew I stood in the mud-laden Grant Park field at Lollapalooza’s 2014 festival, part of me felt as though I was back in a sweaty, middle-school gym-nasium once Outkast took the stage Saturday night.

In their seemingly endless set, the duo spared no expense to give the people what they wanted. Amid both Big Boi and Andre 3000’s own hits, there was a healthy portion of the classics, including “Roses,” “Ms. Jackson” and “Hey Ya!,” allow-ing ample time to shamelessly shake it like a polaroid picture.

There was a potpourri of performances, with appearanc-es from Eminem and Skrillex and everything in between. The essence of Lollapalooza can be

contained in the muddy, rain-riddled set performed by The Avett Brothers Sunday. Evoking feelings of hippie-ideals and fes-tival-mentalities, the folk-rock band serenaded the souls who braved the storm and demon-strated what an outdoor music fest should sound like.

Conversely, Alex Turner made me okay with the pros-pect of him only calling me when he was high. The swagger he brought to The Arctic Monkeys’ set fell nothing short of spectac-ular, as he crooned tunes—most-ly from the band’s new album—with hair grease and a comb on hand. However, one of my big-gest critiques of the three-day concert schedule very well may have been the decision to place Phantogram at the same time as the British import. C’mon guys.

Ladies: if ever you find

yourself feeling down on your dancing abilities, find comfort in the fact that Lorde is quite possibly one hundred times more spastic. I’m not confi-dent in my ability to comment on her singing, as I was so mesmerized by the continuous flailing and seizing of the 17 year-old wunderkind.

While seeing the Perry’s Stage is an experience anyone attending Lolla must have, seeing Iggy Azalea perform is

one that I would wish upon no one. Maybe I-G-G-Y was hav-ing an off day, but her set was anything but memorable.

I am nearing the end of the third stage of grief for not hav-ing seen Kate Nash, Courtney Barnett and Vance Joy. Cross your fingers that my bargaining with the Lolla Gods is success-ful and these foreign phenoms will bless me with an oppor-tunity to see them again in the near future.

The three-day binge of blood, sweat and (sometimes) tears (of joy) never fails to disappoint and this year was no exception. Though my Converse were ruined and my bank account us still undergoing rehabillitation, Lollapalooza onl left me want-ing more. So. Peace. Love. Chicago-style hotdogs.

Jack White took over the What Stage Saturday night playing a two-and-a-half hour set full of his greatest hits.

Catching up and looking forward on recent events

We l c o m e b a c k Badgers. We here at The Daily Cardinal

are very excited to start yet another fantastic semester here at Madison and we are sure you are as well. This summer has provided a multitude of issues that we students need to pay attention to.

Election 2014The Wisconsin gubernatorial

race is rapidly approaching and has begun to generate intrigue from all across the nation.

Incumbent Scott Walker’s opponent Democrat Mary Burke has recently soared in the polls and now, in fact, leads Walker, erasing a 17 point deficit from April. The Los Angeles Times has even called the election the

“tightest” race in the country. Walker’s biggest issue con-

tinues to be the poor job num-bers generated in the state of Wisconsin. The creation of 250,000 jobs was the goal num-ber for 2014 but initial numbers and forecasts predict that the actual number created will be around 100,000.

Walker’s hard-line con-servative viewpoints have continually drawn scrutiny throughout his time in office and poor economic numbers in Wisconsin have served to increase the popularity of Mary Burke’s liberal approach.

FergusonThe outrage and response

from the citizens and police department of Ferguson, Mo., regarding the killing of Michael Brown remains a highly contro-versial topic.

Earlier this month, teen-

ager Michael Brown was shot and killed by a local Ferguson police officer. Brown matched the description of the main suspect in a convenience store robbery minutes before he was approached and ultimately shot multiple times by local police. Mass riots and looting have led to harsh responses from the police toward the citizens of Ferguson. Because of this heart-breaking event, our nation’s ever present racial tension and our increasingly militaristic police forces have been brought to the forefront of our domestic political discourse.

UkraineTurning to international

events, the conflict in Ukraine con-tinues to be a global focal point.

According to a Politico poll conducted on July 21, 67 per-cent of Americans believe the United States should inter-vene only in matters where national security is directly threatened. More specifically related to Ukraine, the same poll asked respondents if the United States should do more to counter Russian aggression. 17 percent responded that the United States should do more and 34 percent said the U.S. should be even less involved than it already is.

These numbers remain consistent between both Democratic and Republican respondents. It is clear to a vast majority of American citizens that the Ukraine conflict is not something the U.S. ought to be involved in. Yet even with these clear positions laid out by the American people, Republican and Democratic senators are speaking out publicly stating the U.S. government should be doing more to help Ukraine, the opposite of what most Americans believe.

U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., chairman of the Senate Commitee on Foreign Relations said, “We should be provid-ing the Ukrainians with the type of defensive weapons that

will impose a cost on Putin for further aggression, this is no longer the question of some rebel separatists, this is a direct invasion by Russia. And we must recognize it as that.”

From the other side of the political aisle, U.S. Sen. John McCain. D- Arizona, criticized the U.S. governments handling of the Ukraine situation stat-ing, “For God’s sake, can’t we help these people defend them-selves? This is not an incur-sion, this is an invasion ... Give them the weapons they need, give them the wherewithal they need, give them the ability to fight. They will fight.” Senators Menendez and McCain’s state-ments on Ukraine provide a glean of hope for bipartisan relations going into the future. Unfortunately this bipartisan breakthrough is in an area where most Americans would prefer we don’t stick our nose.

ISIS

Finally, the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, bet-ter known as ISIS, has been marauding through Syria and Iraq capturing civilian and military personnel alike. Additionally, ISIS has also captured cities, airports, oil fields, military equipment and holy sites. ISIS now main-tains a presence from Syria’s Mediterranean coast to just south of Baghdad, Iraq.

Upon capturing new ter-ritory, ISIS, which began as an Al-Qaeda splinter group, leaves in their wake hundreds of dead civilians and military personnel executed publicly en masse. ISIS has also begun filming beheadings of individ-uals and posting them online as a warning to all who oppose them. The most high profile of these beheadings was of an American journalist, James Foley who the group claims they would have released if the United States government paid the $132.5 million ransom. ISIS has threatened the life of another American journalist

they reportedly hold hostage, Steven Sotloff.

ISIS sweeps through Syria and Iraq, ignoring internation-al borders and subjecting all newly acquired land to Sharia law. Sharia law is the political ideology by which the govern-ment rules based on the teach-ings and practices of Islam. In a truly Sharia law-based society cutting off people’s hands for theft or crucifixion for hold-ing dissimilar beliefs are not uncommon. Moreover, these practices can already be seen throughout regions controlled by ISIS.

The United States once again faces a possibility of military intervention and will no doubt be under the world’s micro-scope even more than usual, which makes President Barack Obama’s statement from Aug. 28 all the more problematic. He said in a statement, “I don’t want to put the cart before the horse. We don’t have a strategy yet.” President Obama’s hon-est and open statement alludes to just how different the ISIS threat truly is. Obama has, however, given authorization for “targeted airstrikes” against ISIS fighters in order to protect American troops as well as pre-vent the genocide of any minor-ity groups targeted by ISIS. This move will by no means subvert ISIS’s power and is merely a preventative measure. To completely destroy ISIS, a much more involved strategy will be required, a move most Americans would not support.

KICKOFF MEETING

September 16th 7:00PM Humanities 2650

By Colleen DegnanThe Daily CarDinal

It will not take another trip to Seattle for a national champi-onship rematch. As the season begins, fans can circle Sept. 28 as a must-watch game of the year.

The Badgers, ranked sixth this year by the American Volleyball Coaches Association, will host the Nittany Lions, ranked first by the AVCA, in a conference match at the Field House.

In the 2013 NCAA national title match, Penn State defeated Wisconsin in four sets. Head coach Russ Rose is entering his 36th year with the Nittany Lions this season.

Returning only four start-ers, Penn State welcomes eight newcomers to their team. Seniors setter Micha Hancock, middle hitter Nia Grant and libero Dominique Gonzalez, along with junior outside hit-ter Megan Courtney will guide their teammates throughout the Big Ten conference.

Badgers head coach Kelly Sheffield enters his second year

with six returning starters. Wisconsin graduated their start-ing libero, Annemarie Hickey, but she returns as student assis-tant coach for the Badgers.

The team also welcomes two transfers to their ros-ter, Romana Kriskova and Erin Juley. Kriskova played two seasons with Virginia Commonwealth University, while Juley started two seasons for Long Beach State.

This match does more than put the final two teams of 2013 in competition, it showcases the skill of the Big Ten conference. Last year’s NCAA national cham-pionship was the first ever Big Ten matchup.

Many past title matches have included one team from the Pac-12, which is historically a vol-leyball powerhouse. Yet, as pro-grams like Wisconsin grow, the Big Ten has become progressive-ly more competitive.

Penn State and Wisconsin will face a competitive schedule before facing each other at the end of September.

Volleyball championship rematch to be in Field House

By Devin LoweThe Daily CarDinal

When college hockey realigned its conferences, the North Dakota-Wisconsin rivalry was given the chance to cool off, but only temporarily.

Wisconsin played UND only once last season in what was the most important game on the Badgers’ schedule.

In the NCAA Midwest Regional, unseeded North Dakota proceeded to shock the Badgers and the analysts by scoring three unanswered goals in the last 1:44 of regulation, knocking out No. 4-seeded Wisconsin in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

This season, Wisconsin will not have to wait long to meet its old rival once more. The Badgers’ first home series is Nov. 7 and 8 against North Dakota, a team that retained some of its best players for this upcoming season.

Forward Michael Parks, who led UND in goals and points last season, will return this year as a

senior and an assistant captain. Another asset up front for

North Dakota is senior for-ward Mark MacMillan, the active leader in career assists and points. With Zane McIntyre returning to the cage boasting a .924 career save percentage, UND looks dangerous heading into winter.

Wisconsin graduated nine seniors in 2014, including its lead-ing goal-scorer and setup man. Amid the less experienced roster is goaltender Joel Rumpel, who will enter his senior season as an established presence between the pipes.

Senior forward Joseph LaBate will likely lead the Badger offense and junior defenseman Kevin Schulze showed promise on the blue line last year for Wisconsin.

The true test for Wisconsin will be if its freshmen and sopho-mores can play on the level of the more experienced UND squad. If Rumpel is at his best, the Badgers could have a chance.

Four games to watch this semester

By Jake PowersTHE DAILY CARDINAL

While Wisconsin failed to take advantage of a pivotal opportunity to showcase its ability on the national stage, one more game looms on the Badgers’ schedule that could prove to be even more important.

With the Aug. 30 loss at the hands of LSU behind them, the Badgers have a smattering of soft non-conference matchups against the lower echelon of the Big Ten Conference lined up before its Nov. 15 kickoff against Nebraska.

The winner of this game will likely represent the West Division of the conference in the Big Ten Championship game three weeks later Dec. 6. Nebraska and Wisconsin clearly stand apart from the rest of the division, both tal-ent-wise and in their recent history of Big Ten success. Through three years in the Big Ten, Nebraska has amassed a 17-7 conference record under head coach Bo Pelini, includ-

ing an appearance in the Big Ten Championship game against Wisconsin in 2012.

In 2012, Nebraska clinched a Sept. 9 contest in Lincoln, Neb. by way of a furious comeback that gave the Huskers a 30-27 victory. However the teams would meet again that year, with a trip to the Rose Bowl on the line.

The Big Ten Championship Dec. 1 was a completely dif-ferent story. It was all UW in Indianapolis, as the Badgers cranked out 640 yards on offense and rode Montee Ball’s 202 rushing yards and three touchdowns on their way to a 70-31 rout.

This year’s game marks the rematch of those 2012 games that have defined this bud-ding rivalry. Both teams will be focused on the opportunity to earn a trip to the conference championship and possibly a right to play in the first College Football Playoff. Camp Randall Stadium will be buzzing for Nebraska week.

By Blake DuffinTHE DAILY CARDINAL

The Wisconsin men’s bas-ketball team will square up against Coach Krzyzewski and Duke Dec. 3 at the Kohl Center, in what may be the most intriguing matchup on the Badgers schedule.

The game is part of the Big Ten-ACC Challenge, as each Big Ten school is paired with an ACC school in a battle between two power conferences. The ACC won the first 10 challenges, but has not won since 2008.

The Badgers are looking to

earn their second consecutive victory in the challenge, follow-ing a 48-38 win over Virginia a season ago.

Both teams are projected to be ranked in the top five to start the season, and this could be the case when they meet to headline the challenge in Madison.

UW returns almost every major contributor from its Final Four team, while the Blue Devils will be relying more on their younger talent. One player that the Badgers will undoubt-edly have to prepare for is Duke freshman Jahlil Okafor, this

year’s most highly touted fresh-man recruit.

The 6-foot-10 center out of Chicago has great finishing abili-ty near the basket and isn’t afraid to put the ball on the floor.

The last time these teams met was in 2009 when the unranked Badgers upset the no. 5 ranked Blue Devils in Madison.

This matchup is just one of multiple potential tough matchups UW will have in its non-confer-ence schedule this season, which includes possible games against UNC, UCLA and Florida in the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament.

Instead, LSU extended the country’s longest regular sea-son, non-conference winning streak to 46 games, sending the Badgers home from Houston with and a lot of question marks their first loss in a season open-er since 1998.

“I think once [LSU] started coming back, I felt like some of us were hanging our heads; that’s where us leaders really have to come in and motivate the guys,” redshirt senior linebacker Marcus Trotter said. “It’s a four quarter game and we have to be consistent every play to be successful.”

In the NCAA Midwest Regional, unseeded North Dakota proceeded to shock the Badgers and the analysts by scoring three unanswered goals in the last 1:44 of regulation, knocking out No. 4-seeded Wisconsin in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

This season, Wisconsin will not have to wait long to meet its old rival once more. The Badgers’ first home series is Nov. 7 and 8 against North Dakota, a team that retained some of its best players for this upcoming season.

Forward Michael Parks, who led UND in goals and points last season, will return this year as a

senior and an assistant captain. Another asset up front for

North Dakota is senior for-ward Mark MacMillan, the active leader in career assists and points. With Zane McIntyre returning to the cage boasting a .924 career save percentage, UND looks dangerous heading into winter.

Wisconsin graduated nine seniors in 2014, including its lead-ing goal-scorer and setup man. Amid the less experienced roster is goaltender Joel Rumpel, who will enter his senior season as an established presence between the pipes.

Senior forward Joseph LaBate will likely lead the Badger offense and junior defenseman Kevin Schulze showed promise on the blue line last year for Wisconsin.

The true test for Wisconsin will be if its freshmen and sopho-mores can play on the level of the more experienced UND squad. If Rumpel is at his best, the Badgers could have a chance.
