Danny Davis | COLLEGIAN The nationally acclaimed comedy act, the Black Jew Dialogues, performed yes- terday evening at the K-State Student Union. Sponsored by the Diversity Pro- gramming Council, the show featured Ron Jones as the Black and Larry Jay Tish as the Jew. Jones opened the show by commenting on K-State sports. He said that he would have liked to have seen the Wildcats in the Final Four, but it was a great season anyway. Tish was quick to add that the Kansas Jayhawks were eliminated first, prompting applause from the audience. The duo’s disclaimer at the beginning of the show accurately represented how it would go the rest of the night. They warned the audience that there would provocative language. “We know it’s out there, people think it, people say it,” Jones said. “Let’s get it out in the open. Don’t get caught up in the words, get caught up in the message.” For the show, the comedians advised the audience to turn off their bias, hatred, and preconceived notions. To illustrate these thoughts, they showed a video of students, some from K-State, who were interviewed by the co- medians’ puppets. One of them, a Mexi- can, was asked what he had heard peo- ple thought about Mexicans in the Unit- ed States. He replied that people said they were lazy and stealing all the low class jobs. That is a contradiction pointed out one of the puppets. They are lazy, but they are stealing all the jobs, he reflected. That kind of humor was what Eric Houston, senior in agribusiness, enjoyed about the show. They confronted serious issues in a lighthearted manner, he said. On stage, the comedians remarked how both Jewish and Blacks are minori- ties, have lived in ghettos, and have been slaves from Africa. Tish said that since Egypt is part of Africa, the Jews were also slaves from Africa in Biblical times. “Aw hell no,” Jones said. “Don’t go pull- ing that North technicality.” The point they were trying to empha- size was that to cope with conditions in America, they must deal with their past. Tish said that Jews use food to help en- dure the suffering and Jones said that blacks use music. Often throughout the performance, Tish commented that he was hungry or thinking about food. One skit within the act featured the men dressed as grandmothers preparing to go to a picnic. They sat down at a dis- tance from each other. Tish avoided Jones because he is a black woman. “I was taught to look at people as who they are and what they’ve done,” Jones said. But Tish replied that all she ever has seen on the news were black people and they mugged her grandson. Jones said that they never show hardworking black peo- ple on the news. The two grandmothers wind up be- friending one another, dancing and trad- ing picnic baskets. Dressed back as their normal selves, Jones and Tish had a discussion on guilt and what it is like living in America as a black and a Jew. Tish asks Jones to imagine he’s with an- other woman while his wife is sleeping beside him. And she wakes up. “Oh man that’s some Tiger Woods s---,” Jones said. That is how the guilt feels being Jewish, Tish said, feeling guilty for everything. As for being black, Jones offered his own perspective on life in America. “Imagine you’re only capable of be- ing someone’s athlete, or a clown, or be- ing dangerous, that you’re totally driven by your sexual urges and that ultimate- ly you’re going to f--- up and wind up in jail,” he said. “That’s what black people have to deal with in America.” The two said that much of the percep- tion about the minorities in America are due to fear and stereotypes - called “fea- reotypes.” Any wrong that a black or Jew commit affects the image of the whole group, they said. “I just wish [America] would realize there’s nothing to be afraid of,” Jones said. “There’s nothing to fear.” They described several situations in which fear controls thoughts of minori- ties. After the September 11 terrorist at- tacks, Muslims on airplanes are subject to fear or hatred. Also, driving in cities and having black people walk towards a per- sons car usually prompts them to lock their car doors out of fear.

H.A.L.O. honors Chávez Getting Acquainted

Photos by Tommy Theis | CollegianOn Wednesday afternoon during the lunch hour the women of K-state filled the Beach Museum. Provost April Mason (top) took time to get to know the women on a personal level. It was a packed event.

Chelsy Lueth | CollegianCommunity members and members of H.A.L.O. marched from 17th and Yuma to the K-State Student Union to commemorate the work of César Chávez.

Lauren Garrison | Collegian

Yesterday evening, many peo-ple gathered at the corner of 17th and Yuma St. to march in honor of Cés-ar Chávez. The group walked to the K-State Student Union, where there was a reception waiting for them in the Cottonwood Room.

The purpose of the march was to raise awareness for the many things Chávez accomplished during his life-time and to gather signatures for a petition that would make March 31, Chávez’s birthday, a national holiday.

In 1962 Chávez founded a union called the National Farm Workers Association, which is now the Unit-ed Farm Workers. Over the years, through Chávez’s leadership and nonviolent tactics, the UFW has ac-complished many things.

According to the UFW Web site, www.ufw.org, some of the UFW and Chávez’s early accomplishments were “the Delano grape strike, [Chávez’s] fasts that focused national attention on farm workers’ problems, and the 340-mile march from Delano to Sac-ramento in 1966.”

“[He] made people aware of the struggles of farm workers for better pay and safer working conditions ... Chávez and the union sought recog-nition of the importance and dignity of all farm workers.”

The Hispanic American Lead-ership Organization, K-State student organization, organized the event. H.A.L.O., which meets weekly, is an

organization that promotes Hispanic culture at K-State and in the Manhat-tan community.

“Our main focus is to promote H.A.L.O., and to recruit Hispan-ics,” said Liz Renteria, president of H.A.L.O. “We try to create a place for Hispanic Americans to go where they feel comfortable.”

Renteria, junior in social work and modern languages, said the march was meant to honor the mem-ory and the civil rights work that Chávez did.

“He worked really hard for peo-ple’s rights,” Renteria said. “Really just basic rights anyone should be al-lowed, like going to mass on Sunday, or using the bathroom at work.”

Renteria said Chávez mainly used the nonviolent tactics of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Ghandi to draw people’s attention to the way Hispan-ics, and other minorities, were being treated.

This was the first time that H.A.L.O. had organized the César Chávez March, but Kristen Garcia, vice president of H.A.L.O. and soph-omore in family studies and human services, said that they had come up with the idea to do it last year some time.

Garcia said she thought there was great turnout.

“It is very exciting to see the stu-dents excited about it,” said María Teresa Martinez-Ortiz, professor in Spanish. “We just want to recognize the importance of this day.”

Dear Wildcats, When Wayne and I ran for of-

fice last spring, one of our main platform issues we called “Real

Connections.” It aimed to increase interaction between K-State stu-dents and alumni through provid-ing advice and mentorship as stu-dents prepare to enter the work-force.

We held multiple meetings with Career and Employment Servic-es and other university groups to talk about ways to achieve these goals. From the conversations the idea of Career Cat Chats was born.

These chats are online, CES-sponsored chat rooms designed

for K-State students to ques-tion working professionals about the job-search process. The re-sume and cover letter chat held today will feature Troy Teague of Cerner, and Bret Fischer of State Street.

Both professionals will be an-swering questions on how to make your resume and cover let-ter stand out from other appli-cants. They will also share helpful resume tips for do’s and don’ts of the trade.

Look forward to more Ca-

reer Cat Chats every Thursday throughout the month of April. Future topics include interview-ing, networking, job openings and transitioning from college to ca-reer.

For dates and times, check out the CES Web site at k-state.edu/ces or look for it in the Planner section on page two of the Colle-gian.

In the dire financial times we are currently experiencing, the need for more money and jobs sometimes causes us to overlook other important aspects of life.

John Covington, the superin-tendant of the Kansas City, Mo. School District is doing no such thing. He recently released a five-year plan to save the current dismal state of the school dis-trict. This plan takes a reduced budget and fewer schools and at-tempts to bring improved educa-tion to the district.

Some of the proposed changes include longer school days and a longer school year. Early child-

hood development would be-come all-day and accept children as young as 3 or 4 years old, ac-cording to a Kansas City Star ar-ticle.

According to the same arti-cle, a different style of teach-ing would take place, more of a “Montessori” approach. This ap-proach focuses more on indi-vidualized learning plans and a progress scale based more on ability than grades. The plan also allows for children of differ-ent ages to be in the same class-room, eliminating the need to push students through to the next grade level.

Another one of the proposed changes to the current system is paying teachers based on how their students perform. At first glance this business-like attitude in an education system seems out of place and almost immor-al. But if teachers have been ask-ing for more money, why not let them work for it? If an intrin-sic desire for money can lead to

better education for the youth of America, then we can stimulate the economy and serve young minds.

The Kansas City, Mo. School District has a plan to not only deal with lack of funding and school closings, but also has a plan to improve student perfor-mance. Kansas has chosen a dif-ferent way to deal with the bud-get cuts.

Kansas Rep. Ann Mah, D-To-peka, sponsored a recent ral-ly for more education funding at the state capitol during spring break. Mah said funding in the state of Kansas is “several years behind where we ought to be,” according to a recent Collegian article. The rally attempted to end the budget cuts and revamp the education system with more funding.

We’re low on education mon-ey in Kansas, and teachers are stepping up to try and stop it. But where is the John Covington of Kansas? Where are the dif-

ferent strategies that deal with the budget cuts not by asking for more money, but by creating strategies that don’t need mon-ey to work?

In an increasingly small-er job market for teachers, why not make them more competi-tive by offering result-based wag-es? Let motivated students excel and the slower students work at their own pace regardless of age. Longer days and a longer school year will help counteract the larger classes and allow students more time with their teachers.

While receiving increased funding would be nice, mon-ey isn’t the only way to improve schools. People are already working on this problem in Kan-sas City, Mo. Kansas’s educators should take their hint and start working towards a similar goal.

Last week may have marked the end of the Wildcats’ run at a national title, but for me it was just a sad note on an excellent season. Sure, we’re all disappointed that we didn’t make it to the Final Four, but this season in K-State history has been one of the most exciting and memorable sea-sons for students and fans. And be-sides, we outlasted KU in the tourna-ment. Is there any way we can recruit Ali Farokhmanesh kid to come play

at K-State?I have never really been a basket-

ball fan. Okay, that is a slight ex-aggeration. I used to abhor basket-ball in high school. But this season has changed my mind. Maybe it was watching Curtis Kelly dunk in pre-game warm ups or watching Mar-tavious Irving break it down coming out of the tunnel before game time. Maybe it was donning the Jacob Pul-len chops or doing the Wabash after a Wildcat victory. It might have even been camping out in freezing weather before the KU game. Or maybe it was just that Frank Martin scared me into it, but whatever the reason is, I am now a basketball fan.

I think what Frank Martin and the men’s basketball team have accom-plished in the past season is nothing short of incredible. Who would have thought we would have knocked off

the top ranked Longhorns at home, or we would have been featured on ES-PN’s College Game Day? At the be-ginning of the season, I never would have thought we’d find ourselves competing for a chance to enter the Final Four or that we would be in the position to win a Big 12 champion-ship. Yes, the men’s basketball team has put K-State back on the map. Aside from setting a school record for single season wins, the basketball team garnered national attention for K-State and the Little Apple.

So thank you, Coach Martin for leading our team into the Elite Eight and for giving us all a good time in Manhattan this season. It was a short ride, but it was a good one. You and your team have brought excitement, school spirit and a winning atmo-sphere back to the Octagon of Doom. What you and your team have done

has been indescribable and unprec-edented for K-State fans. I think I speak for the student body when I say the past season has been one of the best experiences at K-State during my time here.

With the season over, it is time to move on to baseball season and gear up for football season. Although I am still sad the season is over, I can’t help but be excited for next sea-son. Sure we lose Clemente and Co-lon, but we return an all-star cast with Sutton, Pullen and Judge. I’m al-ready scheming and plotting on how to get the best seats for the KU game and penciling in K-State in next year’s bracket. It will be interesting to see what next year holds for the Wild-cats. Speaking of next season, does anyone know if Jacob Pullen plans on shaving? I kind of like the way these chops look on me.

K-State will look to contin-ue its solid start to the season as it travels to Lubbock, Tex-as to face the Texas Tech Red Raiders (12-15, 2-4) in its first Big 12 road series of the year. The first game begins today at Dan Law Field.

The Wildcats come in with a record of 20-3 and sit atop the conference standings with a 3-0 mark. K-State swept a three-game set from Okla-homa State last weekend at Tointon Family Stadium to begin conference play. It was the first time since the incep-tion of the Big 12 that K-State has swept an opening-confer-ence series.

Coach Brad Hill and his team have won seven straight, including winning 11 of 12 during their recent home-stand. Tuesday night, the Wild-cats took down in-state rival Wichita State 8-3 in front of a record crowd to push their win streak against the Shock-ers to four.

The Wildcats head to Lub-bock with momentum, es-pecially at the plate, as they have a .362 team batting av-erage in their last five games. K-State lit up the Cowboys’ pitching staff for 36 runs in three games to start confer-ence play. This does not bode well for a Red Raider pitching staff that has been less than stellar thus far on the year, compiling a Big 12-worst 6.64 team ERA.

The balance for the Wild-cats has been a team strength as they carry a collective bat-ting average of .341 which is tied for the conference lead

with Oklahoma State. They also lead the conference in runs and stolen bases on the year and rank in the top half of nearly all of the major cat-egories.

Junior shortstop Carter Ju-rica has lived up to his pre-season-All Big 12 billing and then some. The Katy, Texas product has hit .409 with four home runs and 33 RBI, while ranking in the top five in sev-en different categories in the Big 12.

Sophomore Nick Martini has also been as good as ad-vertised following his fresh-man All-American season. Martini heads to Lubbock with a .374 average and a 20-game hit streak, which is the third longest in the nation and in third in school history.

K-State ranks fourth in the conference with a team ERA of 3.67. Tech ranks last in runs allowed, hits allowed and walks allowed. Meanwhile, K-State ranks in the top five in all three of those catego-ries, including ranking third in the NCAA in fewest walks al-lowed per nine innings.

A major reason for this suc-cess on the mound has been the three weekend starters for the Wildcats. Right-handers Ryan Daniel and Evan Mar-shall and left-hander Kyle Hunter are scheduled to pitch again this weekend. The trio has combined to post an 11-0 record with a solid 3.00 ERA in 18 starts.

Although the matchup may appear one-sided on paper, Hill and his team know any-thing can happen in Big 12 play. Last year, the Red Raid-ers took two out of three from

the Wildcats in Manhattan.“I know the wind is go-

ing to be blowing out in Lub-bock like it always is,” Hill said. “Our pitchers are going to have to be really tough. I’m hoping we can keep it rolling. Hopefully we keep playing at the level we’re playing at.”

First pitch is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. today at Dan Law Field. The game will be tele-vised on Fox College Sports and it is also available on SportsRadio 1350 KMAN.

Nice guys do finish last. At least in the world of sports they do. Serious-ly, what does K-State have to do?

As I stood in the airport waiting for the team’s ar-rival, I looked around at all the purple and thought, “These people would have been here if this team had lost in the second round. These fans look at these players as members of their own family. Now, technically, they are a part of the K-State family.” As the plane landed, I heard one man exclaim, “The boys are home.” It was as if his own children were arriving.

K-State fans are differ-ent from any other fans in America. The Miami Heat gained a new set of fans the day they drafted Michael Beasley. People take pride in their athletes here. “Once a Wildcat, Al-ways a Wildcat.”

I mean, how can you not fall in love with this current team? You have a shooting guard, whose only offer from a power conference came from K-State. You have the point guard who left his home country to give his family a better life and succeeded in doing so.

You have the center who played every game but one without his mom in the stands. You have the power forward who re-captured his swagger. You have the small forward who transformed his body from beanpole to sixth man of the year in the Big 12. The McDonald’s All-American who never com-plained about playing time and bought into the team concept. The kid who walked on, earned a schol-arship and helped choose the new athletic director. The coach who worked his way up the coaching lad-der and is rekindling the fire of a proud program.

What more do you need? Denzel? Spielberg? Bruckheimer?

I just don’t get it. Kansas State has suffered enough. When does this university get a break? Do we need to be put on probation? And yes, I know K-State has been on probation be-fore.

Do we need to stop car-ing about our players? Treat them like kings when they win and like paupers when they lose? If some-one has the answer, please let me know.

For crying out loud, the football coach encourag-es his players write notes thanking the cleaning staff.

I am thinking the peo-ple of Manhattan need to criticize the team on a reg-ular basis. I think they need to stop showing up unless a winning product is put on the court. Nev-er mind these are just 18 to 21-year-old kids play-ing for a love of the game. Carry yourself with an air of arrogance and ig-norance. As long as we have championships, who cares about a family atmo-sphere?

K-State has done it the right way for a long time. No matter the outcome of this year’s baseball sea-son or next year’s football season, these fans will be “fighting, ever fighting, for a Wildcat victory.”

Eventually, the nice guy gets the girl. There is al-ways a happy ending. Hol-lywood has already reject-ed a stellar script. I just hope they don’t reject next year’s revision too.

K-State’s break past due

Danny Davis | Collegian

The women’s tennis team shut out the rival Kansas Jayhawks 7-0 yesterday af-ternoon. This was the first time in the team’s history to shut out the Jayhawks.

Head coach Steve Bietau said he nev-er stopped to think about that fact, but he was not surprised. He said the team won as a result of their strength and con-ditioning program, which is led by coach Aaron Arnold.

“Or players were pretty fit and men-tally ready to handle the match,” Bietau said. “To an extent, I think that KU gave us an opportunity today to the extent that neither team played well in doubles.”

Recently, the Wildcats have been hampered by poor doubles performance, which included losing all of their dou-bles matches last weekend against Iowa State.

For this week’s match, the team made some changes to the doubles teams by pairing different players together.

“It’s an area of concern and remains a concern until we play at level I expect us to play at,” he said.

Bietau said he thinks the doubles vic-tories early in the match helped set the tone for the singles matches. Although

they won their doubles matches, he said they need to improve so they can face tougher competition in the future. Nina Sertic, sophomore, won her first singles victory since the end of Febru-ary. She has been playing at the number two position in the lineup. Bietau said the team has its weakest record at the number two position and that from the beginning of the season, they knew it would be hard to win at that position.

“Nina has had a tough task because she’s the player that’s been at that spot more than anybody,” he said. “Nina has hung in there through some tough stuff, just like Antea Huljev (junior) has at number one.”

If Sertic continues at that level of per-formance, she can get her confidence back and boost team morale for the rest of the season, Bietau said.

The Wildcats matchups will be on the road against No. 71 Colorado on April 9 and Missouri on April 11.

“That’s a tough weekend, partly be-cause of the teams we’re playing and the travel involved,” Bietau said.

He said he was thrilled with the win today, but the team needs to continue to improve. The coach said the most impor-tant factor to consider is how well they

SAve THeN SPeNd if yOu TRuLy WANT SOMeTHiNG

Have you ever gone into a store and you find something you really like, but it’s way ex-pensive? I have. It is no fun at all to want something you can-

not have. This can be avoid-ed entirely if you budget some of your funds towards saving for that thing you just can’t live without. I’ve come up with a few tips for how to save mon-ey. Maybe they can help prevent you from standing in a store and coveting an item, thinking to yourself, “If only I could af-ford this.”

1. If you have a job, try and save about 20 percent of what you make. Some places can have this automatically taken out of your paycheck and put into a savings account. If you are not able to save this much, then do

what you can. Five dollars from every paycheck adds up over time.

2. Wait until what you want goes on sale. Yes, it might take a year, but you will save more if you do it.

3. Plan ahead. If you know you want something, then plan ahead and make sure it is in your budget.

4. Split the cost with some-one -- friend, roommate, sibling, someone you trust enough to in-vest with. If you are not friends with the person, don’t do it.

5. Stop impulse buying. Do you really need that new DVD

or CD? If you don’t complete-ly like what you buy, then don’t buy it.

More than likely someone else has that CD and they’ll let you put it on your iTunes library.

6. For purchases more than $100, spend about five minutes making sure you are getting a good deal and you can easily af-ford the item. If you are con-vinced, use the 30-day rule. Put the purchase on hold for 30 days. If you still want it after 30 days and you can afford it, go for it.

7. Only pay with cash when you go out. Set aside a certain

amount of money every month for eating out, buying grocer-ies, and whatever else you spend your money on. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. Wait until next month to go out to eat with your friends.

Saving a few bucks for what you want is not a hard thing to do. You just have to make sure you do it so you can get what you want when you want, so you don’t have to worry about it when you can’t afford it.

After more than a year of selfish-ness, I decided it was time to share a little gem I found here in Manhattan. Friends and family have asked me to re-consider, but I came to the conclusion that I owed it to my fellow K-Staters to stop being greedy. Dim sum: yes, two simple words, but the joy those words will bring to your taste buds will leave you smiling all week.

While our small city lacks a variety of foods from other nations, Happy Val-

ley offers customers a trip to China ev-ery Sunday from 11 a.m.- 2 p.m.

Dim sum, meaning “to touch the heart,” was originally a Cantonese cus-tom linked to the Chinese tradition of “yum cha” or drinking tea. Original-ly the Chinese did not eat food while drinking tea for fear of excessive weight gain. As people learned of tea’s ability to aid in digestion, the tea house own-ers began adding a variety of snacks to their menu and the tradition of dim sum, as we know it, was born.

Dim sum arrived in America with Chinese immigrants in the 19th century and has been an alternative to Sunday Brunch ever since. Some in the food in-dustry go so far as to credit dim sum for birthing the idea for brunch. These tiny treasures were brought to Manhat-tan by Xiu Xiang, Cuo Ting Li and their daughter Amy Cuo. They are originally from Harbin, in the Heilongjiang Prov-

ince of China.

Happy Valley’s dim sum creates quite a stir amongst my group of friends, who pour from bed Sunday morning ready to indulge in the vast array of foods we order. Upon being seated one must ask for the dim sum menu.

“Dim sum is not that popular in Manhattan, ” said Xiongjie Dong, serv-er at Happy Valley and senior in elec-trical engineering. “A lot of people have not heard of it. I ask my American friends if they know dim sum, and most of them say no.”

Dong has been working at Hap-py Valley for two years. He lists the red bean paste mini pie, shu mai, Chi-nese burrito and the Shrimp dumplings among the most popular items.

Dim sum eaters are easily identified for their smiling faces and eclectic va-riety of food on the table. Many of the dishes are steamed, pan-fried or deep-fried and come in an order of two or

four. With 35 menu options to choose from, any palate will

leave satisfied. Among the deep-fried options, the

phoenix-tailed shrimp and spring rolls appear on many tables, while the pan-fried goodness of shu mai --a meat-filled soft wanton-- and pork buns al-ways fill mine. The pan-fried pork buns are nearly always sold out by noon, so don’t show up late if you’re looking for them. After a long Saturday night, these foods have you feeling good.

If you are seeking lighter fare, the steamed items will leave you feeling full and ready for the day. Steamed Crystal Shrimp Dumplings and steamed pork spareribs will have you leaving your ta-ble arguing over how many each per-son ate. The dumplings are made before Sunday, but the mini pie, shu mai, pork bun and Chinese burritos are made fresh that day.

Sorry to those few regulars I see each Sunday. I did not ruin our little se-cret, I just feel it too great to not share

with our community.

A freak accident has claimed the life of K-State’s self-proclaimed Evil Dictator, Karen Ingram, sophomore in English.

Ingram’s four week long reign of terror came to an abrupt and bizarre end early yesterday when a flying pi-ano landed on top of her. The piano, which is already being heralded as a community hero, was being hoisted to a room on the third floor of Nich-ols Hall when a cable snapped, caus-ing it to be launched across campus like a catapult. It landed on Ingram, who was walking across Bosco Stu-dent Plaza, presumably plotting some-thing evil. There were no other inju-ries reported in the accident, and wit-nesses claim that Ingram’s final words were “Is that a flying piano?”

“First time I’ve ever seen anything like it,” said one witness, who wished to remain anonymous. “Death by pi-anopult.”

Kirk Schulz, President of K-State, was also a witness to the deadly event. Schulz was unavailable for comment, as he was laughing too hard to speak. He was later transported to Mercy Hospital to be treated for his acute case of the giggles, for fear he might give himself a hernia if he didn’t stop.

In accordance with Ingram’s will, all students, faculty, and staff of K-State are required to attend her me-morial service at Snyder Family Sta-dium. They will be forced to watch a two-hour long slideshow entitled “The Legacy of the Karen” while sing-ing “Ding, Dong, the Wicked Witch is Dead.” For safety reasons, Ingram’s body will be cremated and her re-mains will be shot into the sun by means of a rocket.

“We don’t want to take the chance of this one coming back,” said Cap-tain Don Stubbins of the K-State Po-lice. “As evil as she was, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if she transformed into a zombie, or an orc, or a zombo-rc. For the sake of humanity, we must ensure she’s vaporized.”

The piano responsible for In-gram’s death, which has been named “Chuck” by admirers, will be repaired and put on display in the Union. Chuck has already gained a lot of admirers. Flowers, poetry, e-mails and love notes to Chuck have been pouring in from students and alum-ni across the country. “You did what

none of us had the guts to,” read one note. “I love you, Chuck!”

Plans are already in progress to in-clude Chuck in the Homecoming pa-rade this fall, triggering some criticism from a concerned few.

“I don’t think all of this attention is healthy for Chuck,” said Amy Lara, as-sistant professor of philosophy. “You

mark my words. Chuck is going to get drunk on his own power, and then we’re going to be in worse trouble than we ever were with Karen Ingram. How do you stop a flying piano that thinks it’s king of the world? It can’t be done.”

A personal letter reveals a presidential plot to build an administrative palace or is simply a possible prank by a precocious feline.

Kansas State University’s Anderson Hall, home of the offices of K-State’s president, provost, registrar, dean of student life and many others will cease to exist in a matter of months.

According to a letter from K-State President Kirk Schulz addressed to the ed-itorial board of the Kansas State Collegian, the admin-istration announced its deci-sion to destroy the 131-year-old building and erect a 25-story purple skyscraper in its place. The cost of the proj-ect is yet to be determined, but is expected to exceed $100 million and will resem-ble the shape of the powercat from an aerial view.

“K-State needs to find new and innovative ways to adver-tise the K-State

brand,” Schulz said in the let-ter. “Constructing a 25-sto-ry powercat just seems like a good idea.”

The building is expected to take 10 years to complete but is expected to formally open before the K-State Parking Garage’s ribbon-cutting cer-emony. During construction the offices that currently oc-cupy Anderson Hall will be placed in military tents, on loan from Fort Riley, on the lawn adjacent to the build-ing until construction is com-plete. Besides the current of-fices that occupy Anderson Hall it is expected that the unused floors will go unused. The letter lays out no further details but asked the editori-al board not to run the letter in full nor reveal its contents to anyone.

“Your cooperation is great-ly appreciated,” Schulz wrote.

Schulz declined to com-ment to the Collegian on the topic.

K-State media rela-tions could not be reached to con-firm or deny

the announcement.Anderson Hall is one of

the oldest buildings on cam-pus and is nationally recog-nized on the register of his-toric places since 1980. In 1877, the state legislature ap-propriated $12,500 in funds for the north wing of the main college building, an ap-propriation of $20,000 was made for the construction of the south wing in 1883, and it was completed in 1884. The hall was designed by E. T. Carr, an architect from Leavenworth.

“I think it’s outrageous that the administration wants to demolish such a histor-ic building,” said Corene Brisendine, editor-in-chief of the Kansas State Collegian.

Student Body President Dalton Henry, senior in agri-

cultural communications and journalism, could not be reached for comment on the topic, but it is believed that he is currently missing in ac-tion.

Concerns about the letter’s legitimacy have been raised after several members of the editorial board further inves-tigated the letter.

The letter was delivered to the newsroom at about 5:50 a.m. by a dark figure resem-bling K-State’s mascot Wil-lie the Wildcat, but the secu-rity cameras at Student Pub-lications, Inc., are still being reviewed by campus police to determine the letter courier’s identity.

The letter was found jammed in the newsroom door by the Collegian’s on-line editor Owen Praeger, junior in mathematics and computer science. It was placed in an envelope titled: “Happy April 1 Suckers!”

Any information regarding the whereabouts of the couri-er or the letter’s origin is wel-comed by the editorial board

of the Kansas State Col-legian.

More than 60 people came to the K-State Student Union Ballroom to laugh, gasp and listen intently to the stories told by Judge Glenda Hatch-ett on Wednesday. Hatchett spoke for more than an hour, addressing issues of juvenile crime, foster care, poverty and other social problems, both past and present, facing the country.

“She’s a really good woman,” said Brandon Hall, junior in market-ing and president of the Black Stu-dent Union. “The Black Student Union is really proud to have her come to K-State.”

Hatchett made it clear to the au-dience immediately she had no inten-tion of being a conventional speaker.

“This podium’s got to go,” Hatch-ett said. “It’s between me and you.”

Both the podium and micro-phone were removed, but Hatchett’s voice easily filled the room. Periodi-cally, she moved around to be more personal with the audience, speaking directly to individuals and reacting to their comments.

La’Tonya Ramsey, freshman in art education, said she enjoyed the conversational approach Hatchett took.

“She makes good valid points that people can relate to,” Ramsey said.

Hatchett, who is best known for her TV show, is a judge in one of the nation’s largest juvenile court sys-tems, located in Atlanta. Previous-ly, she worked for Delta Airlines for almost 10 years, where she held the distinction of being the highest rank-ing African-American woman for the company.

Hatchett said she was reluc-tant at first to give up her job at Del-ta when she was asked to become a judge for the juvenile court system in Atlanta but soon discovered her pas-sion was to help children.

A mother of two children, Hatch-ett said working in juvenile court, “made me appreciative of children who are happy, healthy and cen-

tered.” Hatchett said there has been a

significant increase of children in the foster care system as a direct result of the economic recession. In the past, it was common for children to be in foster care because of abuse or ne-glect. Now, children are in foster care because their families lost their jobs or their homes and could no longer afford to care for them.

Hatchett strongly advocated af-ter school activities to keep children off of the streets and prevent them from turning to crime. She encour-aged people to get involved on any level they could, such as tutoring or volunteering for organizations like CASA, which provides one-on-one attention for children in the court system.

In her final tale for the evening, Judge Hatchett told the audience about her experience in first grade in Atlanta’s public school system. Af-ter much waiting, they had finally re-ceived “new” books, only to discover they were old books thrown away by the white school.

When it was her turn to read, she could not, because the page was missing from her book. She asked the teacher after class for a new one, who sadly told her colored children did not get new books. When she got home and told her father about the injustice, he told her to “write your own story.” She passed on this ad-vice, which she has applied to her entire life, to the audience.

Hatchett received a standing ovation from the crowd. Then, in spite of having a 5 a.m. flight back to Atlanta the next morning, she stayed to speak to each member of the au-dience who came up to her after the lecture.

Hatchett said she enjoyed vis-iting colleges, whenever her hectic schedule allowed her to, and speak-ing to students.

“I always try to make these invi-tations a priority because it’s impor-tant to connect with young people,” Hatchett said.

The final part of their show was in a game show format, called “Jew or Not Jew.” Pictures of celebrities were shown on screen and partic-ipating audience members had to guess whether they are Jewish or not.

After that, members of the au-dience stood up to allow Tish to guess whether or not they were Jewish. Contestants in neither por-tion of the show had much suc-cess, which was the point of the show.

“I liked the game show because you can’t just look at somebody and go ‘they’re this, they’re that,’” said Tiffany McFarlane, freshman in open option.

Jones and Tish said to solve the problems facing America, peo-ple must face them, and that is the purpose of their show.

“America may be our last chance at getting it right… for everybody,” Jones said.
