The city’s longstanding ties with historical scientific achieve-ments have a new home in the Madison Science Museum, which opened Thursday.

The process of putting together the museum, the brainchild of Dave Nelson, emeritus professor of bio-chemistry at UW-Madison, began long before its recent grand opening.

“I started thinking about the museum 20 years ago,” Nelson said. “I’ve been saving old scien-tific instruments, metals and docu-ments over that time not just to be preserved, but so they can be avail-able for people to see them.”

The museum, located on the sixth floor of Madison Area Technical College’s downtown campus, features exhibits on dif-ferent topics in science like imag-

ing and robotics, as well as circuits and the bridge between the arts and science.

Nelson said he hopes to dis-play the devices that produce these achievements in order to teach the value of the scientific method.

“It won’t be a new fancy device,” he said. “It’ll be an old one. It’ll help people show what the value

Postsecondary Education center releases state budget effects on multiple UW System institutions

The Wisconsin Center for the Advancement of Postsecondary Education released a report Wednesday detailing additional effects of the Wisconsin state bud-get throughout the UW System.

Gov. Scott Walker signed the 2015-’17 budget July 12, which

removed tenure protections from state statute. Walker let stand a change that makes all shared governance groups require final approval from UW-Madison Chancellor Rebecca Blank and UW System Board of Regents on rulings concerning student life.

The 13 colleges in the UW System faced 83 administration position eliminations, including a decrease in financial aid and admission administrators accord-ing to the WISCAPE report.

While UW-Madison has not yet released the direct effects of the bud-

get to the university, Blank said in an April online statement that over 400 positions could be eliminated.

Other UW System, universi-ties such as UW-Milwaukee, have over 100 vacant positions, due to cuts to supplies and overall capital, according to the release.

“Most campuses are talking about reducing the number of employees to deal with the cuts-- either through early retirement, buyouts, layoffs, or not filling vacancies,” WISCAPE Outreach Programs Manager Jason Lee said in the release.

The Madison Science Museum, located downtown, features old scientific instruments, documents and other items to tell the story of achievements made by people associated with Madison.

Gov. Scott Walker signs proposal to limit secret John Doe investigationsBy Andrew BahlTHE DAILY CARDINAL

Gov. Scott Walker signed legislation Friday that will limit the scope of John Doe investiga-tions after the state Legislature approved the proposal last week.

The bill would curtail the ability of district attorneys to use secret John Doe proceed-ings to investigate crimes rang-ing from misconduct in office to identity theft. Walker has been the subject of two high-profile investigations into alleged cam-paign violations committed by his staff as Milwaukee County Executive and during the 2012 recall elections.

The first probe alleged that

Walker’s staff misused county funds when he was county exec-utive and led to the conviction of six associates.

The second probe investigated allegations that his campaign ille-gally worked with the Wisconsin Club for Growth during the 2012 recall elections. Documents released last week show prosecu-tors believed Walker’s campaign exhibited “flagrant disregard” for state campaign finance laws in formulating their case.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court ended that investigation earlier this year, ruling that the practice being investigated was

Local affordable housing fund awardedDane County announced

Monday that the $2 million Affordable Housing Development fund was awarded to four propos-als pending County Board approv-al, allocating $500,000 for housing for persons released from custody and $1.5 million to three rental housing projects.

“Our goal is to ensure all of our citizens have access to all that Dane County has to offer includ-ing affordable housing,” Dane County Executive Joe Parisi said in a press release.

Nehemiah community Development Corporation will purchase two multi-unit buildings to accommodate ex-offenders who are at a high risk for re-entry fail-

ure, recidivism and homelessness. Housing Initiatives Inc. will

purchase affordable rental hous-ing targeted toward homeless vet-erans, the chronically homeless and persons with mental illness, according to the release.

Gorman & Company will sup-port its affordable housing proj-ect at the Union Corners devel-opment at Milwaukee Street and East Washington Avenue. This project includes 90 units, 76 of which will be set aside for per-sons with income ranging from 30 to 60 percent of the county’s median income.

Movin’ Out, Inc. will com-bine the award with low-income tax credits to develop 48 income

restricted housing units on the 2200 block of West Broadway and at 197 Lake Point Drive for persons with physical disabilities and vet-erans, according to the release.

“Access to housing remains one the pressing issues facing this community. This fund allows the County to partner with the com-munity to increase affordable hous-ing,” County Board Chair Sharon Corrigan said in the release.

Parisi’s proposed 2016 bud-get is set to continue to create affordable housing by allocating $500,000 for reentry housing and $750,000 for additional partner-ships to address housing for the chronically homeless.

Professor to lead national ecological societyFACULTY PROFILE

By Bri MaasTHE DAILY CARDINAL

As scientific fields rapidly evolve, putting more emphasis on effective communication skills and accessibility, the newest presi-dent of the Ecological Society of America said she will use decades of experience as an ecologist to navigate the organization through changing times.

Monica Turner, the Eugene P. Odum Professor of Ecology and Vilas Research Professor of Zoology at UW-Madison, start-ed her presidential tenure in August, after serving as an ESA member since her second year in graduate school.

The ESA is a professional organization of ecological scien-tists that publishes peer-reviewed journals while engaging in sci-ence education, outreach and

public policy reform. As presi-dent, Turner said she will provide vision and leadership to the ESA’s more than 10,000 members.

“You can’t just come in and change everything from one year to the next,” Turner said. “But you’re kind of responsible for hav-ing vision and then helping to steer the ship.”

As an ecologist, Turner stud-ied how ecosystems bounce back after disasters like severe forest fires and invasive species. Now, as president, she said she will deal with the daily “frequent fires” of a changing scientific domain.

One of her first priorities will be helping to transition the ESA’s publications to work with a com-mercial publisher, something she said is becoming increasingly com-mon with the shift from traditional print media to digital.

She will also work to educate both budding and established sci-entists on a new set of skills she said they need to have.

“The expectations on our younger scientists are quite dif-ferent from what they were when I was coming through grad school in terms of the level of commu-nication that one is expected to do now,” Turner said. “It’s not just talking to your own peers and other scientists, but we’re all expected to be able to speak to journalists and the public and really make our science much more accessible to people.”

Throughout her three-year term, Turner said she will contin-ue working with both introductory level biology students and gradu-ate researchers, a dichotomy she has enjoyed over her 21 years at UW-Madison.

not illegal and that the investiga-tion violated free speech rights.

The state’s John Doe laws allow prosecutors and judges to sub-poena witnesses in secret, plac-ing those who testify under a gag order. Republicans argued the pro-ceedings create partisan attacks and cheered the bill’s signing.

“I would like to thank Governor Walker for signing the John Doe reform bill so expeditiously,” Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Rochester, said in a statement. “Wisconsin citizens should all breathe a collective sigh of relief that unconstitutional investiga-tions that violate free speech rights

are a thing of the past. These changes were desperately needed in Wisconsin and our state is bet-ter off now that it’s law.”

Democrats have pushed back against the law, saying it would lead to corruption and an abuse of power in the state.

“Republicans should be less concerned about covering up Gov. Walker’s political scandals and more focused on helping hard working Wisconsin families,” Senate Minority Leader Jennifer Shilling, D-La Crosse, said in state-ment. “This move is a gross abuse of political power at a time when we have a shrinking middle class, declining family wages and stag-nant job creation in Wisconsin.”

is in doing these things in science.”Long before the museum,

Nelson and other retired profes-sors taught a course on Wisconsin’s connections to scientific achieve-ments, which he said helped him learn a lot.

“Fourteen people in Madison have been related to the Nobel prize winners, and I’ll bet you there aren’t 10 people in Madison who can name those people and tell their stories,” Nelson said.

Nelson said he hopes the museum can teach science through storytelling.

“People like to hear things

explained as stories,” he said. “So much of science is taught as a pile of facts with no flesh and blood in it at all. It’s really hard to learn stuff that way.”

Nelson said he also wants the museum to help tell the stories of women and minorities who played crucial roles in these discoveries but did not get any recognition.

Nelson said he hopes to col-laborate with UW-Madison and Madison College.

“We really hope to get volun-teers from both Madison College and UW-Madison who can help explain the exhibits,” Nelson said. “The museum is great for science students and non-science students.”

Student Services Finance Commitee members discuss the 2016-’17 fiscal budget for AHA.

AHA looks to spread secular awarenessSSFC SPOTLIGHT

By Jake SkubishTHE DAILY CARDINAL

The student organization Atheists, Humanists, & Agnostics requested an increase in their budget proposal to the Student Services Finance Committee for the next fiscal year to better cam-pus-wide programs and events.

AHA formed at UW-Madison in 2005, and serves as a campus resource for students seeking to explore questions of secularism and spirituality.

“Our goal on campus is to fos-ter a relationship between the students and their faith and reli-gion, or a lack thereof,” AHA President Nicole Niebler said. “We are trying to develop peo-ple’s religious identity.”

These goals tie into the new budget requests AHA submit-ted for 2016-’17. Aside from sal-ary increases for executive staff, much of AHA’s requested budget

increases was for programming and events, in an effort to reach more of the student population.

AHA representatives said they plan to allocate more money for the Freethought Festival and Freethought Speaker Series. Put on by AHA each spring, the festival brings speakers to UW-Madison from across the nation to address issues of secu-larism and faith, and the series continues to bring prominent speakers to campus throughout the year. The increased budget will be put toward speaker fees in order to attract more recognizable names to speak.

“The more well-known the speaker is, the more students will be interested in those events,” Niebler said.

When approving this budget, SSFC members looked less at AHA’s specific goals, and more at their fiscal responsibility, ultimate-

ly granting the group $71,301.50 for the 2016-’17 budget year.

“Our goal is to open the mar-ketplace of ideas in a neutral way,” SSFC Chair Thuy Pham said. “What I personally think about the organization shouldn’t affect their ability to receive grants and do work. They are eli-gible for funds, and they provide a unique perspective on campus.”

With increased funds for their programming goals, Niebler said she hopes AHA can continue to grow, in spite of some resistance on campus.

“We’ve had a problem with people ripping down our signs, because AHA is seen as contro-versial to people not support-ive of secularism,” Niebler said. “But for the most part people say thank you, keep doing what you do. They appreciate that we are trying to stimulate thought-pro-voking conversation on campus.”

Wisconsin joins legal action against environment ruleWisconsin joined 23 other

states Friday in a lawsuit to halt new federal carbon regulations, which some state leaders say will stifle manufacturing jobs in the state.

The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, said the Environmental Protection Agency is overstep-ping its authority with its 2013 Clean Power Plan.

The plan requires a 32 percent

decrease in power plant emissions by 2030 and would mandate states meet specific emissions standards.

Republican state Attorney General Brad Schimel called the rules “unlawful” and alleged they would negatively affect Wisconsinites.

“As one of the top manufac-turing states in the nation, it is imperative that we join this fight against federal overreach into energy regulation in Wisconsin,”

Schimel said in a statement. EPA Administrator Gina

McCarthy said the agency is with-in its rights to implement the mea-sures under the Clean Air Act.

“The Clean Power Plan has strong scientific and legal foun-dations, provides states with broad flexibilities to design and implement plans, and is clearly within EPA’s authority under the Clean Air Act,” McCarthy said in a statement.

Igudesman & Joo blend comedy and MozartBy Maham HasanTHE DAILY CARDINAL

YouTube favorites Igudesman & Joo brought their theatrical and musical mashups with a healthy dose of lunacy to the Overture Friday. Performing their new show “And Now Mozart,” violin-ist Aleksey Igudesman and pia-nist Hyung-Ki Joo graced Madison with what can only be described as a comic event that brought togeth-er the most unexpected genres of music and elements of theater. I unexpectedly enjoyed an in-depth chat with Igudesman on the phone as he took me through the process of what they do and spoke about the sheet music and DVDs they’re so proud to be universally releasing.

DC: How does one go from hating each other at the tumul-tuous age of 12 to being the suc-cessful duo that you are over 25 years later?

Igudesman: Well you know, hate is very close to love. After the initial hate period, we realized we both actually loved music. All sorts of music that is. We never wanted to restrict ourselves to one type of music. But at the same time we were both always surprised over how serious the world of music takes itself most of the time. We always wondered why because for us music had so much humor in it and music is so much more palatable, more fun when it does have humor in it or is combined with it. That’s why we started doing our shows and

have been working on them for many years.

DC: You mentioned that the two of you wanted to challenge the somberness of classical music. I’m curious as to where does the desire for wanting to do some-thing like that even come from?

Igudesman: It’s difficult to say because we work artistically and never actually thought that we wanted to change anything or perform in a way that is specifi-cally nontraditional, that’s sim-ply a byproduct. We just wanted to create something new, some-thing where you combine differ-ent types of music with different aspects of art, theater and com-edy. We try to do so by our compo-sitions as well since we write and compose ourselves a lot. Recently we’ve even started publishing music on universal editions. To go with our current world tour, we’re even releasing some of our sheet music for violin and piano that can be bought so other people can be a part of the madness too.

DC: Did you fear the prospect of any backlash from those that believe the traditions of classic music should be preserved as they are?

Igudesman: We’re actual-ly very lucky. All the great and even the most traditional insti-tutions always embraced what we were doing. They knew that we were never disrespectful of the music since we had fun with

the music, not at the expense of it. So we’ve performed with the New York Philharmonic at the New Year’s concert, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and some of the greatest orchestras in the world. Nobody minds, nobody has ever said that “Oh my, they’re just clowns!” because they know that we are people who love the music and just want to transform it with our humor.

DC: What do you think Mozart himself would have to say about what you do in a concert hall, and with his compositions?

Igudesman: Oh, Mozart? Oh, he loves it. I just spoke to him the other day. Apparently he might even be at the show in Madison. It’s a show about him, so he’s thinking of turning up, obviously. But also Madison is one of his favorite places, he said. He’s also a fan of our latest DVD, which we’ll be bringing to Madison, called “Funtastic Duo.” I wouldn’t want to plant my DVD myself so much, but Mozart says it really is splendid. And that people should come to the show, and buy the DVD. There are even rumors of him signing it him-self, he likes the limelight. That Mozart. Thinks people love him or something like that. He’s a bit full of himself, but what are you gonna do?

DC: Classic Mozart. Just typical.

Grace Potter came out rocking at Barrymore

Grace Potter performed at the Barrymore Theatre Saturday night. ELI RADTKE/THE DAILY CARDINAL

By Eli RadtkeTHE DAILY CARDINAL

The Barrymore was alive with energy and as I approached the flashing sign from the sidewalk there was a line of chattering people winding out the door and a good 5 feet down the sidewalk. A red sign greeted those who were less pre-pared with a bold “SOLD OUT,” to which they sighed and walked away. Reminiscent of an old movie theater, the Barrymore was looking charming as ever on the evening of the Grace Potter show.

The heady aroma was a cocktail of popcorn and impatience as the lights dimmed and the ceiling twin-kled for Rayland Baxter, the opening act. The opener fit Potter’s MO with a mean 5 o’clock shadow and curly blonde locks peeking out.

As the bluesy rock began to roll and the crowd began to sway, I took a moment to size up who was there. 49.45 percent of the crowd was very intensely waiting for Potter to come on, while the other 49.45 percent was that person’s significant other who was either waiting intensely with them, or just looking ready to groove. The other .1 percent was myself, who was the youngest there by at least a couple years.

Baxter cruised through his set with low-key bluesy beats that warmed up the crowd. He was very good at engaging the crowd through comical introductions of his hip-looking backup band, whether it was the lanky swaying bassist with hair down to his neck, or the heavily bearded pianist who stoically nod-ded and jived in the background. The transitions between songs, however, took much longer than they should have and were noted by the crowd.

At 9:15 p.m., after a half hour break for everyone to replenish the liquid movement in their cups and deposit the used-up solution to a porcelain receptacle, the lights dimmed and clock sounds rang through the Barrymore. To this, the band slowly took the stage to the growing approval of the crowd, which swelled to a roar as Grace Potter came to the front, kicking off the set right with “Turntable.”

Immediately the energy Potter

brought to the stage was felt by the crowd as the lazy hip swing-ing became more aggressive and more and more body parts began to be involved in the couples’ boo-gie. Another thing that was pain-fully apparent was the crowd’s lack of knowledge about flash and phone etiquette for concerts, a fact which was unfortunately apparent throughout the evening’s set.

Potter came out rocking and didn’t give us a chance to breathe on an easy song until an hour in, and then the last half hour of her set was all in-your-face jams until she left the stage at the end of her regular set at 10:50 p.m. This, combined with very long and seemingly unneces-sary musical fills between songs on the set, made the concert feel, for me, like there was no build and that it was kind of getting stale toward the end of her regular set.

Regardless, one thing that can be said is that Potter never lacked for energy. Clad in skin-tight black pants and a silver top, she was the visual focal point of the stage from her attire alone. Combine this with the seemingly limitless energy she displayed as she belted lyrics into the Barrymore’s dancing crowd, it made for one potent powerhouse of a lead on the vocals. Coyly mak-ing jokes and high-fiving the front row, she made sure the crowd was never far from her mind. The level of energy would have been impressive for a normal set, but Potter and her band somehow kept the same level of energy for a set and encore that lasted two hours.

Finishing with crowd favorites like “Stars” and then driving it home with “Paris (Ooh La La),” the crowd had something to dance and cheer about as the set came to a close, although the solos and fills in “Paris (Ooh La La)” did end up taking up quite a bit of time. The band con-cluded to the zealous cheering of those couples who hadn’t danced their hearts out and made it all two hours. I left, enjoying hearing all the excited chatter. It wasn’t the most musically amazing concert I have ever been to, but one thing is for certain: Grace Potter and her band know how to bring amazing energy and play to their crowd.

E very incoming freshman is told of the horrors of the freshman 15. Even the

utterance of its name is enough to strike fear in the hearts of us all. Most people have a plan coming in to avoid the abominable phenom-enon. Upon arriving on campus, however, it’s quickly become appar-ent that eluding the freshman 15’s grip is easier said than done.

The evidence begins in the dining halls. Though daily salad bars and (generally) healthier options at 1849, Global Kitchen and Deli-cious pro-vide healthy alternatives, they large-ly take a back seat to the more tempt-ing, popular and fattening options at Fired Up and Capital City Pizza Company. If the one or two options presented at the healthier locations don’t appeal to you, there are doz-ens of more unhealthy options just across the way, awaiting your guilt-laden consumption.

After scavenging the bountiful savanna known as Gordon Dining and Event Center for a healthy meal (don’t forget the five food groups), you reach the hardest part of the gauntlet: the dessert station.

Conveniently located in almost every dining hall right in front of the cashier—meaning you have to walk right past it in order to pay for your food—the collection of cakes, pies, cookies and tarts has contin-ued to wreak havoc on even the most health-oriented student. I’m doing well today, got myself a nice salad with some chicken on it, lots of veg-etables and nutritious ingredi—hey is that chocolate silk pie?

If you can successfully evade the sirens’ call emanating from the des-sert station, the Charybdis-like crea-ture known as Flamingo Run will surely be your downfall. While it’s helpful to be able to run down and get milk or deodorant at a moment’s notice, the temptation of its veri-table potpourri of unhealthy snacks is too enticing to pass up. Residents of Dejope and Chadbourne, who have a location right in their build-ings, are surely doomed. Why snack on the leftover Wheat Thins and carrots from last Tuesday’s lunch when you could pop downstairs and have a delicious scoop (or four) of Babcock ice cream instead?

Once you’ve filled yourself with calorie-rich, nutrition-starved snacks, a trip over to the SERF or the Nat could help solve your prob-lems. Although the convenient

hours make it easy to go any time of day, the supply-and-demand situation that manifests itself in the weight rooms is enough to convince you to stay at home. A 10-minute walk through the cold, just to stand around and wait for one of the four bench press sta-tions, in a room of over 100 people? Yeah, I’ll just do a few push-ups in my cozy room instead.

To the university’s credit, the athletic buildings are planned to undergo renovations to accommo-date more students and improve the facilities. This, however, will require that the SERF be closed from sum-mer 2017 until 2019. This means that students in Southeast will have to trek all the way to the Nat for two full school years, a difficult proposi-tion for students struggling to find the time (or motivation) to work out.

Fortunately, the area we live in is educated enough about healthy living and wealthy enough to afford more nutritious options. As col-lege students, most of us (myself included) also have our metabo-lisms to thank for protecting us from the consequences of generally unhealthy choices.

On a more serious note, how-ever, this campus-wide phenom-enon is just a microcosm of a much larger issue in the U.S. At a Subway restaurant last week I was told that buying a sandwich and chips together was actually 60 cents more expensive than a value meal, which included a soda. Naturally, I ended up consuming a Dr. Pepper I wasn’t planning on.

The widespread availability of cheap, unhealthy food and gener-al dearth of affordable, nutritious options is an unsavory situation. We’re fortunate enough to live in an area wealthy enough that fresh produce is ubiquitous. Other areas, however, have vast “food deserts” in which fresh food is unavailable. Many people couldn’t even afford fresh food to begin with, and are forced to rely on processed or fast food options to sustain themselves, thus contributing to the nation’s obe-sity epidemic. So while we continue to fret about the freshman 15, we need to keep in mind that to many people in this country—some not so far away—a few measly pounds is just the tip of the iceberg.

The harsh reality of the freshman 15

O ct. 12, South Korea decided to implement a new nationalized

Korean history textbook start-ing in 2017. As a South Korean and a history major, this is one of the most shameful down-plays of historical study. This textbook applies to all South Korean public institutions from elementary to high schools. George Orwell emphasized the importance of history itself: “Who controls the past con-trols the future. Who controls the present controls the past.” History has to be studied and narrated by different sources and viewpoints; if not, then we will only harvest unripe and foul misunderstandings.

What’s concerning about the South Korean attempt to rewrite the history textbooks is that it is highly political and controver-sial. According to an Oct. 12 New York Times article, this change partly resulted from a dynam-ic web of ideological conflicts, “For years, conservative critics have charged that left-leaning authors poisoned the current textbooks and students minds with their ‘ideological biases.’”

Modern Korean history is tumultuous. The start of the 20th century was under the gloomy chains of colonization by the Japanese, ideological fights between communists and capi-talists and a series of military coups that were often accompa-nied by brutality against many people. So, the major issue sur-rounding the teaching of South Korean history, especially in schools, is how to characterize this rough time period.

There is a gap in Korea in judging whether President Park Geun-hye’s father was a great leader or not. The older genera-tions and conservatives deem him to be a hero who led the rapid modernization and indus-trialization of the nation, while the more liberal citizens criticize his dictatorial rule that persecut-ed many democratically minded individuals through systematic tortures, imprisonments and suppressions. Many people were

falsely accused and persecuted. It was economically prosper-ous yet extremely oppressive. Because it was a hard journey for South Koreans to achieve democ-racy from military dictatorship, many citizens today hate to think of losing its value.

Then, there is also the issue of Japanese colonization. It is a harsh reality that many elites today in South Korea descended from the Japanese collaborators. They drained a great amount of wealth and influence from supporting the colonization while most others suffered. Even after the inde-pendence, many collaborators were employed as a spear-heading force to the national government. Therefore, many with power and wealth in the government today, including President Geun-hye, whose father also was a collaborat-ing officer, are in support of nationalizing the history text-book—downplaying collabora-tion efforts, making it a ben-eficial process to Korea. How can colonization be considered beneficial if so many people suf-fered from forced conscription and labor in the unwanted war, and such destruction from the war slowed actual progress?

Many criticize such a move to change the narrative for downplaying the efforts of Korean people who worked in the independence movements, who were victimized and had heavy suffering in those time periods. This also raises the problem of bias. The govern-ment revealed that the purpose of revising their history text-book is to make it less biased by ideologies. But, isn’t everything biased? Even now I am biased. In my opinion, it is not about

having or not having biases. The concern is around the creation of a profound understanding. In order to make a conscious understanding, we need to have as much diverse information as possible to make the most ratio-nal judgment. The government is preaching to get rid of bias while forcefully implementing certain ideology over others. How can this be a truly bias-free politic?

And about ideological bias-es: How could this policy ever be properly opposite of totali-tarianism, if it is attempting to limit the scope of minds? This policy replicates those of the Soviet Union and North Korea, South Korea’s exact, and dreadful opponent. More importantly, if South Korea is constitutionally democratic, how can the state suppress the opinions and diverse expres-sion that are necessary compo-nents of democracy?

States should not have rights to limit the flow of thoughts and expressions. It eliminates diversi-ty, thus eliminating the opporunity to find a more efficient solution to the problems that plague society. When there is no difference, there will be no ability to find a solution.

As this world is filled with conceivable faults, it is essen-tial for us to have differences. In postmodern society, complex problems demand equally com-plicated solutions. If learning and thinking are limited, then how can we be truly enlightened humans capable of living innova-tive tomorrow?

We will never learn from his-tory if we do not make history a product of thoughtfulness, con-stant analysis and questioning for a more rational answer. If we lose history, we would also lose the purpose and direction of live-lihood in economics, social and political enigmas. Hae Rin is a sophomore majoring in history.

in desperate need of a victory over a ranked opponent after back-to-back losses to rival Minnesota, the Badgers rose to the occasion to defeat no. 3 nebraska on the road in lincoln.

By sam Karpthe daily cardinal

Coming off back-to-back losses to Minnesota, No. 16 Wisconsin had a huge weekend, sweeping Iowa and pulling off a huge road upset against No. 3 Nebraska. Coming into Saturday, the Badgers (6-4 Big Ten, 14-6 overall) had never beaten Nebraska—with their notorious-ly loud crowd—in Lincoln.

In Wisconsin’s first game of the weekend it easily handled Big Ten doormat Iowa, 25-22, 25-22 and 25-18. In their sec-ond game, the Badgers showed impressive resolve—especially from such a young team—win-ning three straight sets (25-17, 25-19 and 25-22) after dropping

the first set 22-25.The Badgers’ offense was

dominant in their first game. They recorded 46 kills off of 46 assists, while hitting .252 percent as a team. The Hawkeye offense didn’t fare as well. They recorded 31 kills off of 31 assists and hit .144 percent as a team.

Sophomore outside hitter Lauryn Gillis led Wisconsin with 11 kills while junior set-ter Lauren Carlini lead the team with 39 assists.

After falling behind early in the set, UW responded to take a com-manding 14-8 lead. Iowa was able to pull the set within two points but a kill by Gillis sealed the Badgers’ first set victory at 25-22.

In the second set Wisconsin

came out strong, taking a big 18-9 lead. However, the Badgers again let Iowa back into the game. With the score at 22-13 Iowa was able to push Wisconsin to the break-ing point, pulling within two at 22-20. Unfortunately for Iowa, UW was again able to pull away late in the set to win by a score of 25-22.

The third set featured back- and-forth play until the Badgers were able to pull away and seal their victory against Iowa. Gillis put away the Hawkeyes with a kill so the Badgers could turn their attention to Nebraska.

In Wisconsin’s second match of the weekend, it was able to capitalize on a strong defen-sive performance by their

front line and mistakes by the Cornhuskers. Wisconsin record-ed 15 blocks as a team and only 17 errors. Nebraska’s game-high 58 kills were negated by its 35 errors throughout the match.

Freshman middle blocker Tionna Williams led the Badgers with seven kills followed by junior middle blocker Haleigh Nelson with 6.

With Nebraska’s raucous crowd filling the stadium, UW came out strong in the first set, jumping out to an early 8-5 lead. The Cornhuskers were able to show why they were the No. 3-ranked team going on a run of their own to take an 18-13 lead. UW attempted to come back but Nebraska pulled away to seal the

first-set victory.In the second set, Wisconsin

came out on a 7-3 run. This set the tone for the rest of the set, as UW closed out the set 25-17.

The Badgers again pulled out close-set victories in the third and fourth set to finalize their huge upset victory. It was a major win for a Wisconsin team that had struggled against ranked opponents this season.

Wisconsin will hope to capi-talize on its momentum from the past weekend moving forward to its upcoming home games this week against Purdue and Indiana. The Badgers will take on the Boilermakers Friday at 7 p.m. and the Hoosiers Sunday at 1 p.m.

Badgers sweep No. 6 Bemidji State, continue shutout streak By Ryan Weinkaufthe daily cardinal

The No. 3 Wisconsin Badgers (6 -0- 0 WCHA, 8- 0- 0 overall) finished off the series sweep of Bemidji State (3 -2- 1, 6- 2- 2) in dominating fashion, secur-ing the victory 4- 0 and earning their sixth consecutive shutout, a school record.

The last time the Badgers started the season 8 -0 was in the 2010 -’11 season, which was also the last year they won the National Championship.

Head coach Mark Johnson attributes the early success to high level play across the board saying that the team’s “consistency, and our ability to score some goals and also defend really well” has played a big role in the hot start.

Saturday’s first period was similar to Friday’s game, with the Badgers dominating and putting two on the board, pulling away from Bemidji State.

The scoring began about six minutes in when junior forward Sarah Nurse, who missed Friday

due to injury, received a cen-tering pass from fellow junior forward Sydney McKibbon and shot it at Beavers goalie Brittni Mowat, who had an uncharacter-istically poor performance, as it looked like she made the save but it somehow squeaked past her for the goal.

The second goal came late in the first as sophomore forward Emily Clark made an impres-sive run across the goal. Her shot was stuffed, but Mowat couldn’t locate it in time as sophomore

forward Baylee Wellhausen found the puck in front of goal and slotted it in for the 2- 0 lead.

Whereas in Friday’s game Bemidji State found a lot more of a rhythm in the second and third periods, Saturday the Badgers continued to control the flow as the game progressed.

“I thought today’s game was better than last night,” Johnson said. “We took care of the puck a lot better and we were able to play a lot more in the offensive zone because of it.”

Wisconsin’s third and fourth goals were both scored by senior forward Erika Sowchuk, first off a rebound opportunity early in the second and then off a redirec-tion of a slap shot in the third to cap off the scoring.

The goals for Wisconsin all came from within a close distance to the net, something Sowchuk said was a good way of dealing with Bemidji State’s strong abil-ity to block shots.

“We knew they are really good at getting their bodies in the way of the puck,” Sowchuk said. “So we tried to get the puck around them, and our defenseman did a good job of getting pucks to the net, and we were able to get our sticks on a few of them.”

With five shutouts this season, junior goaltender Ann -Renée Desbiens has been outstand-ing this year. Desbiens leads the country in goals against aver-age (0.30), save percentage (.980) and shutouts. She has been an extremely calming presence for the Badgers, as she has been steady in her decision making and has made very little mistakes.

Desbiens stressed that it is a team effort that has kept the back of the Badger goal empty for so long.

“It’s a team effort, you can’t do that by yourself,” Desbiens said. “The couple times they came in our zone, [the defenders] make sure I can see it, take the rebound out and it just makes my job way easier.”

Handling the No. 6 team in the nation with relative ease, the Wisconsin Badgers sent out quite a statement to the rest of the nation that they will be a force to be reckoned with this year.

“We knew they were going to be tough competition and be a good test for us, so to come away with the sweep will build our con-fidence for sure,” Sowchuk said.

The Badgers’ next series will take place next weekend, when they travel west to take on the Minnesota State Mavericks.

battered badgers best Fighting illini by lorin CoxThe Daily CarDinal

CHAMPAIGN, Ill.—“It’s the next man up.” This quote has been uttered by head coach Paul Chryst, offensive coordinator Joe Rudolph, redshirt senior quarter-back Joel Stave and Saturday night in Champaign, Ill., redshirt junior quarterback Bart Houston was the next man up to say the phrase.

Late in the first quarter of Wisconsin’s (3-1 Big Ten, 6-2 Overall) 24-13 win over Illinois (1-2, 4-3), Stave was sacked by junior defensive end Carroll Phillips, who beat redshirt senior left tack-le Tyler Marz to the inside. The Badger quarterback was slammed to the ground, and his head whip-lashed into the hard Memorial Stadium turf.

Stave would come back in for six plays on the team’s last drive of the first quarter before ultimate-ly being ruled out of the game with a head injury. It was the Bart Houston show from there.

The Stave sack and injury was the culmination of a first quarter of terrible offensive line play. On the ground, redshirt junior run-ning back Dare Ogunbowale could only amass 7 yards on five carries in that opening period, and Stave was under pressure on nearly all seven of his pass attempts.

“It’s always the next man up,” Houston said. “The second string guy always has to be as prepared as the first string guy.”

While the cliché certainly applied to the quarterback situa-tion, it also reflected the offensive line changes. The guys up front have gone through constant rota-tion, with a new right tackle and swapped guards seemingly every couple of weeks.

During the game even, changes had to be made. Late in the third quarter, redshirt junior center Dan Voltz went down with a bad look-ing knee injury, so redshirt fresh-man left guard Michael Dieter moved back to center and fellow

second-year guard Micah Kapoi took his old spot.

“We have a lot of guys who have seen playing time, just because of the injuries, and it makes it easier because of all the weird combina-tions we have had,” Dieter said. “Dan goes down, Micah comes on, and I go to center. We’ve done that before, so it doesn’t make it quite that hard.”

Even before the injury, another change seemed to happen with the offensive line. After that porous first quarter, the offense came out in the second with Houston under center, and all of a sudden, the quarterback had time to throw and the ground game gained a little traction.

So what happened? For one thing, Chryst and Rudolph seemed to put an emphasis on moving the pocket to try to neutralize the Illini pass rush.

On the Badgers’ second drive of the second quarter, the first three passes that were called

were play action rollouts that got Houston out of the pock-et and away from the Illinois front seven. The first two went for completions and got the Wisconsin offense going on a 12-play, 59-yard drive that ended up stalling in the redzone.

Moving forward from there, the rollouts seemed to come each and every drive, and Houston used his legs to create time to throw and find receivers down field. UW hadn’t shown it much in previous games, but Chryst insisted it was all a part of the plan.

“It wasn’t anything we went to [specifically for Houston],” Chryst said. “We were able to keep the same game plan with Bart that we had for Joel.”

That game plan didn’t have a chance to come to full frui-tion with Stave, but it seemed to work pretty well for Houston, all things considered. Once the protection shored up, the offense found consistency, and save for

the new quarterbacks’ question-able turnovers, this unit found a way to get it done.

The Illinois defense defi-nitely deserves some credit for their performance. They gave the Wisconsin offensive line fits and really slowed them down again in the third quarter. Houston got the ball moving quickly in the fourth, and his attack ultimately put the game away.

“We just need to start faster as an offensive line,” Marz said. “I think they’re probably the best we’ve seen thus far, especially at D-end. They had some long guys, some strong guys and they were pretty quick.”

No matter who is at quarter-back next week, the team will be trying to start fast, something they’ve really struggled to do all season. Regardless of where the changes come, it will be “next man up,” and that next man will surely get their chance to join in on the cliché.

Wisconsin headed east look-ing to grab a share of its first Big Ten title since 1994, need-ing a win over the struggling Maryland Terrapins.

The Badgers (8-1-1 Big Ten, 11-4-3 overall) didn’t disappoint, defeating Maryland (1-8-1, 6-11-1) 1-0 to clinch a share of their first conference crown in over two decades.

What has become something of a normal sight for this Wisconsin team is the defense locking down its opponents early on in games. They held Maryland to zero shots in the first 25 minutes of the game, and only four shots in the first half of the game.

But it wasn’t just the defense that was dominant in the game for the Badgers in the first half. The offense put a lot of early pressure on the Terrapins’ defense, getting two shots in the

first 10 minutes. Wisconsin continued to cre-

ate offensive opportunities in the first half and had 12 shots at the break. In addition, 50 percent of UW’s first-half shots were on goal. Despite the dominating per-formances on both sides of the ball, Wisconsin headed into the half locked in a 0-0 tie.

Coming out of the half, the Badgers looked determined to put the ball into the back of the net, getting a couple of close chances in the first 10 minutes. They continued to get good looks until they finally broke through in the 81st minute.

The goal came off a corner kick from senior midfielder Kinley McNicoll to fellow senior mid-fielder McKenna Meuer, who headed the ball to junior midfield-er Micaela Powers.

Powers proceeded to chip the ball past the goalkeeper to give the Badgers the lead. Powers had

come on as a sub and added a lot of offensive pressure, as three of her four shots were on goal. The goal ended up being all Wisconsin needed, as it held on for the 1-0 win.

The win over the Terrapins clinched at least a share of the Big Ten championship for the Badgers. This win and the cham-pionship shows how much the team has grown over the course of the season. In the early part of the season the team was struggling to keep teams off the scoreboard, but this win marked the team’s eighth shutout in their last nine games. They also had difficulties scoring earlier in the season, yet they have scored 15 goals in their eight-game win streak.

The Badgers will look to win sole possession of the Big Ten title in their final regular season game against Northwestern at the McClimon Sports Complex on Wednesday at 7 p.m.
