Police in Denton and Collin counties are asking for help to indentify a serial rapist who may be behind at least four
attacks on alumnae of the Delta Sigma Theta sorority.
A man forced his way into a woman’s home in the commu-nity of Shady Shores in Corinth between 9:15 p.m. and 9:30 p.m
on Oct. 14. He then sexually assaulted her and fled.
“On Friday the 14th, we became involved as an agency,” said Greg Wilkerson, Corinth police captain. “We’ve been
contacting the agencies in Plano and Coppell based on the suspect’s MO. We haven’t heard of or seen any other victims at this point. We’re asking women who could
have been victims of sexual assault who were too scared to report the crime before to come forward now.”
Police described the attack as similar to three other crimes
that happened in Coppell and Plano. The suspect has report-edly assaulted four women in the span of 11 months.

Facing a bleak job market and an economy in the dumps, U.S. college students saddled with thousands of dollars in student loan debt may be hoping gradu-ation day never comes.
Total outstanding student loan debt in the U.S. will hit the $1 trillion mark sometime this year and has already outgrown what Americans owe on credit cards, according to a recent report by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Loan default risesWhile student loan debt is on
the rise, the number of students defaulting on loans is up as well, with Texas coming in at more than 10 percent, slightly above the national average of 8.8 percent, according to the most recent Department of Education report. However, UNT sits below these numbers at 7 percent.
Growing frustration over mounting student loan debt and fear of default is on full display at the Occupy move-ments in cities in North Texas and across the world.
Elizabeth Clinton, an anthro-pology junior and member of the International Socialist Organizat ion who was at Occupy Denton on Monday afternoon, said she wanted all existing student loan debt wiped clean.
Clinton said she currently has $25,000 in debt and isn’t confident she will be able to find a job after graduating. She said the dissatisfaction exem-plified by the movement was shared by everyone, but she was particularly concerned for young people.
“I’m here for a lot of reasons, but essentially I’m fed up because young people don’t have any kind of future to look forward to,” she said.
Cost of Texas educationO n a v e r a g e , t u i t i o n
increases at American univer-sities at about 8 percent a year, according to finaid.org, a website that tracks trends in financial aid. That growth rate has led to an average of $23,000 in student loan debt for U.S. college students.
Dominic Chavez, senior director of external relations for the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, said tuition at universities nationwide has skyrocketed to the point that loans are the only way most college students could afford to get a degree.
“The board is working on finding strategies and alterna-tive pathways to make degrees more accessible,” Chavez said. “In the meantime, for better or worse, loans will be a part of the higher education landscape.”

A mong t he A ir Force Thunderbirds performing aerial stunts in the skies above Fort Worth Alliance Airport last Saturday were Lt. Col. Jason Koltes and Lt. Col. Case Cunningham. The show was a homecoming
of sorts for the two pilots, who call nearby Ponder and Argyle home, respectively.
Koltes, who graduated from UNT with a degree in business in 1994, is the Thunderbird’s Operations Off icer and pilot of the nu m b er s e v en je t i n shows.
Cunningham f l ies the lead jet.

“It’s great to be back in Texas,” Koltes said. “I had the chance to visit campus and it’s awesome to see how it’s grown to become a mature university.”
Now after being in the A ir Force for 17 yea rs, Koltes is in his first year w it h t he T hu nderbi rds and said his favorite thing about the Thunderbirds is “watching how the team comes together.”

“You can’t start a game any worse than we did with a 100-yard kickoff return,” McCarney said. “Some teams could have gone into the tank and one bad play would lead to
another, but these kids wouldn’t let that happen.”
The Warhawks rush defense – ranked first in the Sun Belt Conference with 100.3 rushing yards allowed per game – caused the Mean Green to turn to the arm of starting soph-
omore quarterback Derek Thompson.
Thompson struggled with accuracy in UNT’s early offen-sive possessions, but settled in and put up a career day.

A crowd of 17,815 fans, students and alumni filed into Apogee Stadium on Saturday hoping to see the UNT football team win its first homecoming game since 2006 – they did not leave disappointed.
The Mean Green (3-5) defeated the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks (2-5) 38-21. The win kept dreams of a bowl game alive for the Mean Green and was also the first time since 2004 that UNT has won three consecutive home games.
“It wa s ou r most complete game as a foot-ball team,” UNT head coach Dan McCarney said. “Anytime you take care of the ball on offense and get defensive turnovers, you always have a chance to win football games.”
The match opened w it h a ba ng – but not in UNT’s favor. ULM wide receiver and kick returner Luther Ambrose found a seam and returned

touchdowns and 332 yards. The 300-yard performance was the first by a Mean Green quar-terback since Riley Dodge in 2009.
The success of the UNT passing attack opened things up for senior running back Lance Dunbar, who finished the night with 139 yards rushing and one touchdown.
Thompson said the game was “without a doubt” his best performance at UNT and cred-ited the receivers for making his job easier.
“All week I challenged the receivers, [saying] ‘this is going to be our week’ and that we were going to have to step up if we wanted to win this game,” he said. “We had great game plan going in and the receivers played a heck of a game.”
Leading ULM 24-21 with 5:22 left in the fourth quarter, UNT used two big plays to pull ahead. Senior linebacker Julian Herron put the Mean Green up by 10 with a 16-yard fumble return for a touchdown and Dunbar secured the win with a 60-yard rushing touchdown.

“My job is to go out and through the Thunderbirds, represent the brave men and women of the military,” he said.
Gallemore, who is origi-nally from Conroe, Texas, said he most enjoyed being in his home state for the show.
For Cunningham, the best part of the show comes at the end.
“After the show when you land, you see all the smiles,” he said. “And you see all the kids saying how they want to do that and people say that they’re proud to be an American,” he said.

Chavez said statewide cuts to higher education grants – in August, the Texas Legislature cut 15 percent from higher education grant programs – and a gener-ally bad economy had increased students’ reliance on loans.
“You’re seeing federal finan-cial aid squeeze and try to sort all this out,” Chavez said, calling the current system of regular university tuition hikes “unsus-tainable.”
UNT student loansRachel Grimes, program coor-
dinator for UNT’s Student Money Management Center, said she has seen more students apprehen-sive about taking on debt, but in
many cases student loan debt is unavoidable.
About 72 percent of UNT students receive scholarships or financial aid, including federal, state and private student loans, according to the Student Financial Aid and Scholarships office.
UNT annually awards more than $300 million in financial aid, including $25 million in scholar-ships, but even for some students benefitting from scholarships and grants, it’s not always enough.
Nadiyah El-Amin, a mechan-ical engineering freshman who attends UNT on a track-and-field scholarship and a federal Pell grant – which, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid – said she had only recently taken out a loan to help pay for housing.
“I was skeptical about taking it,” El-Amin said. “I didn’t want to start my life out in debt.”
On Wednesday, President Obama will announce a new student loans initiative that White House officials have said will help with the nation’s economic woes.
Students can take initiative by establishing a loan repayment plan early as well as visiting the Student Money Management Center, which offers consulta-tions for students to discuss their finances.
The center will host an infor-mation session from 5-6 p.m. today in Language Building 210 to discuss ways for students to reach their loan repayment goals.
Changes to the systemTexas has its own “self-
sustained” system to finance student loans: The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has, since 1965, bought bonds to
fund student loans, free of cost to taxpayers.
Early voting on an amend-ment to the Texas Constitution that would increase the ability of the board to sell bonds and fund student loans began Monday. The amendment would effectively extend the board’s credit line to fund student loans.
“It allows us to have a lot longer program stability,” Chavez said. “By having that long-term stability, we can better meet the needs of students.”
The board’s student loan program operates entirely on revenue brought in from gradu-ates paying back their loans.
Except in rare cases, even declaring bankruptcy does not absolve a graduate of paying his or her student loan debt, which might explain why some are reluc-tant to take on student loans.

The Plano Police Department recently released a surveil-lance video of the suspect. The person of interest is described as a heavyset black male in his late 30s to mid-40s, 5-feet-7-inches to 6 feet tall and 275 to 300 pounds. He appears to have a short, well-trimmed beard and short hair.
“We informed all of the sorority members of the incidents before the video was released,” Wilkerson said. “We always conduct a victimology report to find out all that we can. The fact that all of these women were African-American and in their
mid-50s to mid-60s was a red flag; these were already estab-lished commonalities.”
The Corinth, Coppell and Plano police departments are asking anyone who recognizes the man from the surveillance video to report him to any of the police agencies involved.
“We have no idea why he did this at this point,” Wilkerson said. “We’re hoping someone will recognize the suspect. While we have had sexual assault cases in the past, this one is very atypical. Unfortunately, this did happen in our community.”
Corinth Police Department is urging women in the sorority to refrain from wearing jewelry or clothes that would advertise their involvement in the sorority.
“This scares me so much because I’m from Plano,” said Nicole Hirsch, a fashion merchan-dising freshman and member of the Chi Omega sorority. “It’s terrifying that fellow greeks are getting attacked.”
Hirsch said raising awareness of the situation would encourage people to be more cautious and mindful of their surroundings.
“It’s hard because it’s not like the police or someone can be everywhere at once, so it’s really up to people just to be smart, like not walking down dark alleys alone or just watching your surroundings,” math freshman Rachel Mahlow said.

WASHINGTON D.C. (MCT) — Nearly two months after it made public its entire unre-dacted file of purloined U.S. State Department cables, W i k i L e a k s a n n o u n c e d Monday that it was suspending “publishing operations” to concentrate on raising money to keep the website in busi-ness.
The announcement left in doubt the future not just of WikiLeaks but of what had been thought of as a new style of journalism that would allow would-be whistleblowers to lea k documents electron-
ically, without the risk of having to reveal their iden-tity to anyone.
WikiLeaks’ success engen-dered at least two copycat efforts, but to date neither of those has produced news-worthy releases of informa-tion.
“This is an existential threat to WikiLeaks,” WikiLeaks’ fou nder Ju l ia n A s s a nge declared at a news confer-ence in London.
He bla med Wi k iLea k s’ dismal f inancial situation on U.S.-based banking insti-tutions, including Bank of
America, Visa, MasterCard, PayPal and Western Union, for refusing since December t o pr o c e s s d on a t i on s destined for the website.
The refusal had robbed WikiLeaks of 95 percent of its income, Assange said, in charging that the institu-tions had acted at the behest of the U.S. government. He said the group needed to raise $3.5 million in the next year to continue its opera-tions at its current levels.
He said the website has 20 staff members and about 800 volunteers. T
he i m me d i ate pr ac-tical impact of WikiLeaks’ announcement Monday was unclear.
The last of t he State Depa r t ment cables was made public Sept. 2, and W i k i L ea k s’ spoke sma n Krist inn Hrafnsson told McClatchy Newspapers last week that the website had not been able to accept new submissions for much of the past year.
S t a t e m e n t s f r o m WikiLeaks over the summer indicated t hat much of its unpublished material had been destroyed by a disgruntled volunteer.
Assange said WikiLeaks would unveil a new system for submitt ing mater ia l anonymously on Nov. 28 ,the anniversary of the first publicat ion of t he State Department cables.
The credit card compa-nies cut off donations to WikiLeaks in December, just as the organization reache d t he heig ht of public awareness with the publicat ion of t he State Department cables after three controversial releases of formerly secret U.S. docu-ments in the previous seven months.
In the final month before t he f i na ncia l blockade, the website received more than $1.1 million in dona-tions, according to a chart WikiLeaks distributed to journalists.

Candy is in season year-round, but Halloween movies are not. If you haven’t started taking advantage of cinematic spawns of autumn, start off the week with one of the funniest, “Zombieland.”
This 2009 hit is about a para-noid man named Columbus, played by Jesse Eisenberg, who finds himself precari-ously trapped in the middle of a zombie infestation. Hoping to make his way to his family in Ohio, Columbus makes up a “Zombie Survival Guide” to stay alive.
On his way to find his family, he runs into a tough guy played by Woody Harrelson, who is determined to find something, too – a Twinkie. They later team up with a pair of con-

For those who need no reason to parade a costume around in public to embrace ever y t h i ng creepy a nd strange, you’ll still need a place to go.
Among the costume parties and house shows that will spring up unannounced, it looks like there’s plenty to look forward to for Halloween weekend 2011 in Denton’s bars and music venues.
O n T hu r s d ay n ig ht , Rubber Gloves will kick off the weekend with Discipline, a series of shows by DJs. The Rubber Gloves website describes the variety of music as industrial, no wave, post-punk and noise, among other sub-genres.
Hailey’s will hold a night of blues, folk and acoustic rock with local yokels Zach Balch, Ty Mayfield and Karyna Cruz. After the show, the club will have a special Halloween-themed ‘80s night with the best retro hits.
Friday night, Hailey’s will host Do It For Halloween
with a lineup of local hard hitters covering songs by more famous bands. Trebuchet will play as the Smashing P u mpk i n s, T he Hou se Harkonnen as Pantera, and Shaolin Death Squad as Muse. The event is also a costume party, so show up with your best Halloween attire and you could win a prize. Doors open at 8 p.m.
At Rubber Gloves, Parade of Flesh booking will host AIDS Wolf, an abstract band from Canada reminiscent of early Butthole Surfers. Its sound is chaotic and disso-nant with yelps and unde-cipherable melodies. If the band’s music is complex, its stage presence is even more perplexing; it’s noise-rock for art lovers. Doors open at 9 p.m.
Saturday will be the big day for Industrial Street, which is where the Halloween-themed Day of the Dead Fest will span several venues over the course of the day. The street will be filled with activities and music. There will be Trunk or Treat, ghost story tellers

Meanwhile, Hailey’s will have another cover-band show with the Shitfits, a Misfits cover band with openers Power Violence. A costume contest will be held with a $500 prize announced at midnight. Doors open at 8 p.m.

Silverleaf is hosting Circus della Morte, a less family-friendly show than the Cirque du Horror. With knife juggling, glass eating, razor-blade regur-gitation and other weird stuff, it should be both frightening and cool to watch. The show starts at 4 p.m.
Finally, on Halloween night, Boxcar Bandits will play at Dan’s Silverleaf. The show starts at 10 p.m.

How the Mean Green fared this weekend
settled for a tie after a late ASU goal.
“We had the game won a few times, but the post seems to be our worst enemy,” UNT head coach John Hedlund said. “Give Arkansas State credit; they battled hard today. Even with the tie, we are still in control of our own fate on getting the one seed and winning the regular season title.”
UNT sophomore defender Kelsey Hodges broke a score-less tie in the 63rd minute with her sixth goal of the season. Junior midfielder Ellen Scarfone picked up the 20th assist of her career on the goal, which moved her into a tie for eighth among the program’s all-time assist leaders.
Fresh ma n goa l keeper Jackie Kerestine was stout again for the Mean Green, sav ing a career-high 10 shots. However, ASU senior midfielder Michele Clark got one past Kerestine on a rebound to tie the game with less than five minutes to play in regulation.

The UNT volleyball team gathered some much-needed momentum this weekend, sweeping a pair of road contests against South Alabama and Troy.
The Mean Green (14-13, 5-6) had lost its previous four confer-ence road matches and moved from fifth to third place in the Sun Belt West Division with the victories.
South AlabamaThe Mean Green posted one
of its strongest outings of the season and defeated USA (7-14, 2-7) in straight sets (25-20, 25-21, 26-24). UNT held the Jaguars to a .152 hitting percentage for the match and hit .230, its highest mark since Sept. 17.
“It was great to get a three-set victory; we haven’t done that since Kennesaw State,” head coach Ken Murczek said. “It really put some confidence in the players.”
For UNT, the usual suspects
led the way. Seniors Shelley Morton and Melanie Boykins combined for 25 kills and Morton notched 11 digs.
“We play hard and we go for everything,” Boykins said. “We’re focusing on our consis-tency and do what we need to do on our side.”
Although the Mean Green leads the Sun Belt in attack errors with 652, the team stayed mistake-free with just 12 attacks against USA.
TroyCompleting arguably its
best weekend of the year, UNT defeated the Trojans (14-9, 4-5) in four sets, (26-24, 23-25, 25-22, 28-26) pushing their regular season win against Troy streak to three.
Morton led the way with 19 kills and 17 digs while notching her 12th consecutive double-digit kill outing. Freshman outside hitter Eboni Godfrey tallied 16 kills and 16 digs for her 16th double-digit kill match of the season.
“We proved we can go on the
road and have a quick turn-around,” Murczek said. “The kids knew there was a lot on the line this weekend and that if we didn’t get it done we would be in a tough place.”
Senior libero Sarah Willey thrived on the back line, posting a match-high 29 digs and landing two aces.
“It’s not over till it’s over,” Willey said. “We’re trying really hard that we qualify for the [SBC] tournament. Right now that is our focus.”
The Mean Green stays on the road to face the Sun Belt elites as it tangles with Middle Tennessee and Western Kentucky. Both teams are 10-1 in conference play and ranked in the Top 30 nationally.

The UNT soccer team is introduced before its game against the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. The Mean Green defeated UALR 2-0 Thursday night at the Mean Green Soccer Complex.
In UNT’s previous two wins at Apogee Stadium, Indiana and Florida Atlantic posted a combined 35 points on the Mean Green defense in the fourth quarter. Against the Warhawks, UNT allowed zero.
“Coach preached all week ‘let’s finish this thing out’ because if the offense puts up 3 or 7 points, it’s on us to win the game,” UNT sophomore linebacker Zach Orr said.
The Mean Green will play two consecutive road games – starting Saturday against Arkansas State – before returning to Apogee Stadium for the season’s final two games.

Do you think voters should vote for Proposition 3?
“Well yeah, I think they should somehow extend the money
and make room for more grants. I guess I believe that education’s important to not only our economy but our
government. It’s democracy; people should be educated.”
“I think it’s a good idea. It won’t raise taxes, so that’s good. A bond is just like a loan, so it’s essentially the same thing.”
“The education system sucks, and I hope that it would
improve in the coming years. Education is really important
because there are more requirements for jobs. They
want you to have a degree, they want you to have a master’s,
and it’s just getting higher and higher of the needs. So it’s
important for students to have an education and to have those
funds.”
Before approaching the polls this fall, the Editorial Board believes Texans should educate themselves on the propositions considered for the consti-tution.
Proposition 1 extends the home-stead tax exemption for fully disabled veterans to include the veterans’ spouses after the veterans pass away.
Proposition 2 would allow the Texas Water Development Board to issue bonds for water projects on a continual basis in an amount that would not exceed $6 billion.
Proposition 3 would approve bonds to fund College Access Loans. The program, which currently touts one of the lowest interest rates in the nation,
is expected to hit its limit it can lend for higher education in 2013.
Proposition 4 will allow counties to make improvements the same way cities and towns renovate their roads and bridges. The new operation would not call for a tax hike, as property tax revenue from new businesses that take to the area will cover the costs.
Proposition 5 gives cities and coun-ties more freedom to enter contracts with one another. Since contracts between local government have been considered “debt” in the past, cities were required to create sinking funds.
Proposition 6 makes more money available for public education by
using the Permanent School Fund, which boasts $24 billion. If passed, the Permanent School Fund would be able to give $300 million a year directly to public education.
Proposition 7 allows El Paso County to create conservation and reclama-tion districts to develop parks financed by taxes.
Proposition 8 proposes a tax break for conserving water on farms, ranches and wildlife management. If it is passed, only properties already eligible for the tax break will be able to apply.
Proposition 9 allows the governor to pardon a person who successfully completes a term of deferred adjudica-
tion community supervision. Without a pardon, a felony arrest still exists on their record, which makes it difficult to acquire a jobs and apartments.
Proposition 10 extends the filing deadline for unexpired terms that will cause automatic resignation due to the state’s resign-to-run-law. The additional 30 days will avoid putting officeholders in a difficult spot if they wish to run for a different office with a year or more left on their terms.
Although the registration dead-line has already passed, voters are not restricted to their assigned voting precinct during early voting, which continues until Nov. 4. Election day is Nov. 8.
UNT seems to take pride in recy-cling, taking part in energy-saving practices and constructing energy-efficient facilities.
When students want to show they mean green, though, red tape stands in the way.
The North Texas Energy and Environment Club has had a commu-nity garden project proposal in the works for two years, but approval from the university has yet to come because the location for the community garden is under dispute.
The NTEEC has everything it needs to get this project started, except an approved location from the univer-sity.
Plans for the garden include a rain-water-retention pond, native grass and wildflowers, native drought-resis-tant trees and a community-plotted garden bed. The club has funding and volunteers waiting to take action and wanting to demonstrate how to be green.
This is a way for the university to show Mean Green pride and work toward having a sustainable and eco-friendly campus.
The Capital Projects Council vetoed the proposed location for the garden, claiming that a parking lot is planned for the space instead.
Parking always seems to be an issue at UNT. However, construction proj-ects, such as the new 953-space parking garage, have been completed and are
in use to help fix these problems. One more parking lot won’t do much
good, but a green space that can bring students together to learn environ-mentally friendly practices is more beneficial.
It is part of UNT’s spirit and overall goal to be green, and to veto a commu-nity garden for a parking lot is coun-terproductive to that mission.
Ultimately, coordination between the CPC and NTEEC should take place to find a suitable location.
The university can assign an unde-veloped area on campus to be used as green space, and the NTEEC can take over and put its proposal into action. It is that simple.
To the CPC: Give the NTEEC a loca-tion so UNT can move forward as a Mean Green campus.

I a m a UN T a lu m nus a nd supporter. I was featured in the UNT North Texas magazine for my work on a documentary.
This past Saturday, I thought it would be nice to attend the home-coming football game.
I wanted to see the new stadium and enjoy a nice afternoon with friends and family.
We had a leisurely barbecue in front of Fouts Field, which brought back many memories.
We then enjoyed our walk past the beautiful Murchison Center and the stone marker that states, “Only the educated are free.” We then wound our way through the old UNT golf course, which brought back many memories also because I enjoyed lessons as a kid.
A s t he stad iu m ca me i nto v iew, we had to negotiate our way through what can only be described as a fraternal ambush.
Giant, intimidating letter signs had captured the high ground while drunken, obnoxious soldiers stumbled and cussed and we walked through the valley beneath them.
It was a disgusting welcome to the gates of a beautiful new stadium.
Once inside, we enjoyed an excit ing game in a wonderful environment. Once the game had ended and we exited, the valley
had deteriorated. Drunks sleeping on couches
that had been brought from their homes, litter everywhere.
Cardboard beer boxes f lattened on the ground and tossed about like Frisbees. Vomit (yes, vomit).
The detritus was shameful.It was a disgrace to UNT and
the effort of so many. Our af ternoon was severely
marred by UNT catering to these disgraceful fraternities. It was embarrassing to my family and me.
The paths to the stadium should be free of such activities. Move the fraternities across the highway or to a more secluded location (i.e., Texas Tech).
Their location is not what UNT or DENTON should endorse. I wou ld not send my daug hter to UNT after what I witnessed Saturday.
I looked backed at UNT’s stone marker on our way to our car. “Only the educated are free.” Walking through that disgraceful fraternity row proved that UNT is catering to the uneducated.
I will not attend another foot-ball game until this situation is resolved.

Sudoku requires no calculation or arithmetic skills. It is essentially a game of placing num-bers in squares, using very simple rules of logic and deduction.The objective of the game is to fi ll all the blank squares in a game with the correct numbers. There are three very simple constraints to fol-low. In a 9 by 9 square Sudoku game: • Every row of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every column of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every 3 by 3 subsection of the 9 by 9 square must include all digits 1 through 9

Sudoku requires no calculation or arithmetic skills. It is essentially a game of placing numbers in squares, using very simple rules of logic and deduction.
The objective of the game is to fill all the blank squares in a game with the correct numbers. There are three very simple constraints to follow. In a 9 by 9 square Sudoku game: • Every row of 9 numbers must in-clude all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every column of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every 3 by 3 subsection of the 9 by 9 square must include all digits 1 through 9
