For the second year in a row, Military Times EDGE magazine listed UNT among t he be st nat iona l fou r-year colleges for veterans,

although its ranking dropped 37 spots from No. 6 in 2010 to No. 43 this year.

Though it is ranked lower, employees at UNT’s Veterans Center give little thought to t he rank ing, and instead

focus on plans to help its student veterans, a number which has more than doubled from 1,200 last year to 2,500 this year.

UNT is among five Texas universities to receive a grant of $605,000 from The Greater Texas Foundation to fund scholarships for early college high school graduates.

T h e G r e a t e r Te x a s Foundation Scholars program will award scholarships in $2,000 increments to early college high school graduates who attend UNT.

E a r l y C o l l e g e H i g h Schools (ECHS) are high schools located on or in close proximity to a college campus that allow students least likely to attend college an opportunity to earn a high school diploma and up to 60 col lege cred it hours, according to t he Texas Education Agency’s website.

Wynn Rosser, executive director of The Greater Texas Foundation said this is the only scholarship program of its kind.

“UNT is a leader,” Rosser said. “The school is bold and it’s courageous and is trying something new. To go out on a limb to bring these early college high school graduates in and work with them is new, and it’s one reason UNT is getting this grant.”

UNT was selected as part of a statewide competition all public and private universities were invited to join. Five schools in the state were awarded with grants to provide scholarships to ECHS students. UNT has about 30 ECHS students enrolled this year, assistant director for the Office of Enrollment Lynette O’Keefe said.

“We were awarded this for a number of reasons,” O’Keefe said. “UNT has a strong history with The Greater Texas Foundation and we share common goals, so naturally we applied for the grant. We support the ECHS model and have actually helped many ECHS campuses get started. I think these are all factors that helped us get it.”

Students can begin taking college courses at one of the 54 ECHS campuses in Texas as early as their freshman year of high school at no additional cost, Rosser said.

The UNT football team’s last glimmer of hope for a break-even season record has been extinguished.

The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (6-5, 6-1) defeated the Mean Green (4-7, 3-4) Saturday night for the first time in WKU history, defeating UNT 31-21 at Apogee Stadium. The loss guaranteed UNT’s seventh straight losing season – even if UNT wins its final game of the season, the team can finish no better than 5-7.

“We were beaten by a better football team,” UNT head coach Dan McCarney said.

“You’d love an opportunity to make plays to win games, but we were not able to do it. [WKU] made a lot more plays.”

The game was close at half-time with the Hilltoppers leading 17-14, but the turning point of the game came early in the second half.

After driving to 1-yard line of WKU, UNT could not find the end zone, turning the ball over after failing to convert on fourth down. From there, the Hilltoppers went on a 14-0 run. UNT scored a late-game touchdown, but by then the game’s outcome had been decided.

“We came out kind of flat in the second half,” senior running back Lance Dunbar said. “The plays we had open there were too many mistakes, too many dropped balls. You have to make plays when your number’s called.”

Dunbar, who injured his knee against Troy last week, was limited against WKU, participating in just three plays for the Mean Green.

UN T overca me t he senior’s absence against the Trojans, but couldn’t dupli-cate that effort against the Hilltoppers.

“We beat ourselves; it’s as simple as that,” sophomore

quarterback Derek Thompson said. “We had a great game plan; we didn’t execute.”

While the Mean Green offense struggled, the defense could not contain the Hilltoppers.

UNT entered the game with a plus-8 turnover margin – causing eight more turn-overs than it had given away – and ranked third in the Sun Belt Conference in quarter-back sacks. Against WKU, the Mean Green tallied no sacks and no turnovers while the Hilltoppers notched two inter-ceptions.

Two UNT students arrested earlier this month face state and possible federal charges of cash forgery, a third-degree felony, after trying to use counterfeit bills they made in their dorm room, police said.

Brent Bakewell, a business freshman, and Keeley Dunnam, a dance freshman, were arrested outside of Maple Hall sometime after midnight Nov. 7, when a police search of Bakewell’s dorm room uncovered a number of fake $20 bills.

Ryan Grelle, public informa-tion officer for the Denton Police Department, said the case would have to go through a grand jury before heading to trial, which “could be months.” The case will ultimately go to the Denton District Attorney’s Office, which will prosecute the two students on a state level, Grelle said.

Forger y of government currency is also frequently pros-ecuted at a federal level, with the United States Secret Service handling most cases involving forgery or financial fraud.

“The Secret Service can still press charges if they wish,” Grelle said.

The Secret Service field office in Dallas did not return requests for comment.

If the two students are convicted of the forgery charges, they could spend two to 10 years in prison and be fined up to $10,000, according to the Texas Penal Code’s judgment on third-degree felonies.

Grelle said officers originally received a tip about the forgery from an employee at a local convenience store, who refused service to Bakewell, a “regular” at the store, when he attempted to buy a pack of cigarettes with a counterfeit bill on Nov. 6.

Fol low ing new cit y a nd university rules allowing for more bike traffic in Denton, police and other departments at UNT are educating motor-ists and pedestrians on how to travel safely alongside bicy-clists.

Both the city of Denton and UNT have recently put in place shared pathway initiatives that give bicyclists the right to use an entire lane of traffic and mandate that motorists must pass cyclists with at least 40 inches of distance between them.

D e s p i t e t h e c h a n g e s , UNT Police Deputy Chief Ed Reynolds said the frequency of accidents on streets around UNT has remained low.

“Since the beginning of the semester, we’ve had about 12 accidents overall,” Reynolds said. “That’s not counting the small accidents in the parking lots.”

Joe Richmond, director of parking and transportation, said both city and UNT offi-cials are currently working on a bike committee to determine how to deal with the changing traffic situation.

UNT Police Department Lieutenant David Owen said the university is currently c re at i ng a n e duc at iona l campaign to help those on the streets around campus abide by the laws of the road.

O wen sa id t he u n iver-sity has always had a large amount of bike traffic, but the recent actions by the city and UNT have just increased the numbers and awareness.

“The university has always b e e n m or e i nt e g r a t e d ,” Owen said. “Not a lot has changed.”

“These students are highly motivated because they opted to earn their associate’s degree before they finished high school,” Rosser said. “The things that predict college completion are family income, parental education and a rigorous high school experience. When a student sitting in front of you can’t do anything about two of those three factors, we do our

best to provide that rigorous high school experience.”

The scholarships given to ECHS graduates are designated to be used for tuition, housing, books and other necessities. O’Keefe said at least 25 students will receive a portion of the grant each year over a period of five years.

Be g i n n i ng f a l l 2012, scholarships in the amount of $2,000 per year, combined with other grants and scholarships, will be awarded to alleviate the need for student loans, O’Keefe said.

Though UNT does not have the highest number of ECHS students, O’Keefe said it is a privilege to receive the grant.

“This says so much about the faith that The Greater Texas Foundation has in UNT and this program,” O’Keefe said. “We have really bright and motivated students who don’t often get opportunities like this.”

Gene Acuña, director of communications for the Texas High Schools Project, said the ECHS program helps “keep a foot in the door” for students who

want to continue their education after earning college credit.

“By the time they graduate from high school, some students have earned half of their college credit, which we think is commendable,” Acuña said. “Once they get there, many want to continue on to four-year universities and earn their bachelor’s degrees. But we have to keep in mind many of these students are from low-income areas who may not have the means to continue their education.”

“Every school in the country is trying to respond with resources and education and support for veterans,” said Mona Hicks, assistant vice president for campus life and founding director of the UNT Veterans Center. “[Working for the center] has been unlike any other experience I’ve ever had in my career. Everyone is willing to share resources; we’re

certainly not going into it with [a competitive] mindset.”

Determining factors for being a Military Friendly College are decided by a survey of 500 student veterans on what they believe to be the most important school services for vets. This year, students voted on several new factors, which were added to the competition, including the Yellow Ribbon Program and Veterans Upward Bound Program.

“Our tuition cap is below what it is in the Yellow Ribbon Program,” Kris Khastehdel said. UNT Student Veterans

Association president and UNT Veterans Center peer mentor. “So not being part of the program is a good thing.”

Other factors included residence halls specifically for student veterans, which Khastehdel said would be going too far.

“I can see their reason, but I think it’s an unnecessary expense,” Khastehdel said.

Rather than adding programs to obtain a higher ranking, the center chose to implement its Boots-to-Books program this spring. The program gives

student vets financial assistance before receiving their GI Bill money, which can take several weeks to arrive.

“I think this program is very important,” said Adam Haggerty, a music education junior and six-year Army veteran and member of the National Guard. “My first semester I didn’t get my GI [Bill] money for two to three weeks, and luckily, Voertman’s had a similar program or I wouldn’t have had my piano books.”

UNT will also begin offering sensitivity training for students

as well as faculty and staff in the spring. Participants will be able to come in pairs, groups or individually to learn about available resources for distressed students, particularly those with PTSD.

“What we found was people want to be supportive, but they don’t know how,” Hicks said. “Some of our larger classes held in Wooten can be high-traffic areas and trigger hyper-vigilant mode for a person who has been in combat. Professors could have a sticker on their door to identify it as a safe place until traffic dies

down.”Hicks said she plans to make

training available to faculty and students at orientation to create a friendlier environment from the moment students enter campus. Though the two programs are expected to make the transition from service to student much easier, just hav ing t he Vetera ns Center is enough for some students.

“I guess the best resource I found was the people,” Haggerty said. “Finding people to talk to, who have had the

Owen said the campaign won’t focus on motorist duties because most people under-stand their responsibilities while driving a car, but will instead inform cyclists and pedestrians of hazards to be wary of.

“We’re going to have more signage,” Owen said. “It helps the cyclists understand where they should be. Enforcement-wise, we’re just interested in preventing accidents.”

Jeremy Ti l ley, a music education senior, said he normally drives his car to campus. He said he has only encountered a few bicyclists ignoring traffic laws during his commutes, but said they do pose a danger to them-selves and other drivers on campus. Tilley said he believes

the efforts by the UNT police to alert more cyclists to their responsibilities on the roads will help.

“I would like to see signs that blatantly say these roads are for bikers, too, but bicy-clists have to follow the same rules of the road as everyone else,” Tilley said. “Hopefully, that will make them more aware of it. If not, they will be cited for it.”

Carmen Garza, resident life coordinator for UNT’s housing department, said more resi-dents have been using bikes to commute to class this semester. However, she said the increased number of bikes on campus requires more bike racks to accommodate them.

“The biggest issue with us right now is not having enough bike racks,” Garza said. “We’re also trying to figure out how we can get students to take them home if they leave over a break.”

One of the world’s most renowned jazz trumpet players, Terell Stafford, is performing at the Murchison Performing Arts Center with the Grammy Award-winning One O’Clock Lab Band at 8 p.m. tonight.

Stafford stands as a pillar of the jazz community and leader in jazz education. He’s played with groups such as the Grammy-winning Vanguard Jazz Orchestra. He’s also an educator and a board member of the Jazz Education Foundation.

Steve Wiest, Gra mmy-nominated director of the One O’Clock Lab Band, said playing with Stafford “will really be an inspiration for the students. Terell is simply one of the best jazz trumpet artists in the world right now.”

For the past few months, Stafford has been touring to promote his new album “This Side of Strayhorn.”

Q: Have you been traveling a lot this year? Do you tour often?

A: I do; I’ve been traveling a whole lot all summer. I came back a little bit in the fall for a couple of months to get things started in school and I’ve been out for the past month. I’ve been to Europe; I was there more through the summer [in] London, Spain, Italy and France. I’m getting through touring in the states; I just got back from a 12-day tour in Japan. I’ve been touring the Chicago area for the past week, touring with the Northern Illinois Jazz Ensemble

At UNT’s Department of Electrical Engineering, faculty and students are developing autonomous robots that will think by themselves and navi-gate planetary surfaces through cameras connected to a wireless network.

Developers have worked to improve visual processing so that robots can take pictures and scan surfaces of other bodies in space to identify objects and terrain and calculate ways to navigate their surrounding, said Kamesh Namuduri of the electrical engi-neering faculty, who oversees the project.

“We want to make the robot think like an individual and make it do what people can do,” Namaduri said.

Funded by a $50,000 grant from NASA and a $50,000 grant from UNT, Namaduri plans for some of the 25 robots to eventu-ally be tested by NASA on lunar terrain models in the next few years. The robots range in size, from several that are the size of a toaster to the largest one, which is a specially modified Segway that’s about 3 feet tall. Because of the expensive cost of sending human expeditions, 80 percent of NASA’s missions to space are manned by robots, and the need for smarter robots is growing, Namuduri said.

Unlike humans, robots lack decision-making capabilities. The robots are programmed to take pictures of objects to under-stand what they are and add them to a database of many images, said Michael Mischo, a computer

engineering graduate student who worked on one of the robots. Recognition of objects is impor-tant so that the robot can learn how to navigate.

“You can’t just go to the moon and hope for the best,” Mischo said. “You have to know what objects and surfaces you’re dealing with.”

Some of the robots are connected to one another so they can communicate and collabo-rate more efficiently, Namuduri said.

“They’re like a colony of ants working together,” he said. “They can process the information and determine which robot is best suited for the job.”

Together, the smaller robots that communicate are called “swarms,” and can work to build a map of the terrain with the goal of

helping space colonization. Each robot c a n w or k on fulfilling a different function so that it is a true team effort, N a m u d u r i said.

The impact of object-identi-fication programming reaches beyond space exploration. Whether the bots make it to space or not, Mischo said they could potentially be used in other, non-stellar applications, such as airport security to identify faces and in police work.

“The technology can be set up in many facets of industry. Like most technology, it invades every area of industry,” Mischo said.

UNT robots gear up for action

Sta� members bring empty Murchison to lifeSARAH CLEMENTContributing Writer

Twelve hours before tonight’s One O’Clock Lab Band perfor-mance at t he Murchison Performing Arts Center, its 1,400-seats will be empty. There will be no musicians mingling about the stage, nor a conductor poised to deliver the band’s first downbeat.

Hours prior to shows at the venue, employees will arrive and bring the building back to life for the performance.

By the hour before audience members arrive tonight, stage and house lights will be set already at a specific level. The stage crew will have installed instruments and microphones with help from performers. Acoustic variables will be set to provide high-quality sound.

Front-of-house staff will also be busy preparing. This group is composed of the ticket office and ushers. They lock doors, check bathrooms and meet before the show to discuss details. At this meeting they

will learn the start and end times of the show, along with the intermission time and any other important information, such as times for late seating.

After these meetings, the front-of-house manager and stage manager will stay in close communication with each other in order to deter-mine when the theater is ready to open.

The stage manager and f ront-of-hou se ma nager, along with Graeme Bice, the Murchison event coordinator, will be the first to arrive, and then their crews will come in an hour before show time.

“That’s a massive setup,” Bice said, referring to tonight’s One O’Clock performance.

The One O’Clock Lab Band performance is one of the largest events the Murchison staff puts together.

“The multifaceted avenues it offers in technical and admin-istrative work, from the dream of the performance to actually having the performance; it’s

awesome to see it all play out,” Spanish and philosophy senior Brian Morgan, said.

O pene d i n 199 0, t he Murchison, af fect ionately known to many UNT students as “the armadil lo-shaped building,” provides a place for College of Music students to practice and perform in a state-of-the-art venue.

“We are trying to do our best to provide the best work envi-ronment we can for students and faculty,” associate dean of operations for the College of Music Jon Nelson said.

The Murchison hosts 85 to 100 performances a year, not including rehearsals, record-ings and unexpected outside events.

“The atmosphere is unique and will challenge you above what you would experience elsewhere,” Morgan said.

An hour after the event has finished, the stage will again be cleared by the stage crew, the doors will be locked, and the lights will be turned off by the

and now I’m on my way to Texas. I leave for San Diego for three days and then I’ll leave to Barcelona for five days.

Q: You released a new album earlier this year, “This Side of Strayhorn.” How did the recording process go?

A: We came in one day and we recorded everything for about five hours, partly because we’d been on tour for a week prior so we got a lot of kinks worked out, the materials already ready. By touring with it for a week,

it just made the process of the studio recording just much more quick.

Q: What’s the idea behind the name of the album?

A: “This Side of Strayhorn” is basically depicting my vision and my sound for [Billy] Strayhorn’s music, so I took his music and my good friend Bruce Clark took the arrangements from the commission project and that week we had on the road, we kind of formulated our own sound.

Q: I read that you’re on the board of the Jazz Education Network; what’s new in jazz education today?

A: Things are going well. The organization is a great organi-zation because we’re all about getting educators together so that we can work for the better-ment of the students and educa-tion in general. So this organi-zation has outreaches and does different things throughout the year to help develop a great foun-dation for jazz education. Once a year we have a conference

and all the educators come out, which is a really big conference and we all get together there, we have different workshops, different panel discussions and performances just to continue to expose more people to different colleges and universities and expose more people to different information as far as jazz educa-tion and approaches.

Q: What advice do you have for students at UNT who aspire to become profes-sional musicians?

A: Continue to follow your dreams and your desires. My point of view is always to prac-tice as hard as possible and to make yourself as visible as possible in whatever scene you want to be on and then let the rest take care of itself. A lot of people talk about the word “networking.” I’m not a huge networker because most people that network have been putting their time into their craft. So they network so people can hear and try to find the end road to find a career in anything so they have to pay their dues. As long as students are paying their dues and talking to the right people, which they are because the faculty there is phenomenal, they can find a career anywhere and find a great future in jazz.

Q: What do you think of the music industry as a busi-ness?

A: It is a business. For me personally, musicians that I choose to be around represent themselves well and have a great attitude and are supportive and open to the music and people that take care of business. For me, just to be on time is huge. So many people take that for granted. So to be on time and have a great open attitude is really important. From there, you can really tell if musicians are easy to travel with; if they are, then they’ll work. As far as the business is concerned, when contracts are sent to you and negotiating deals for yourself, it is a business because you do want to represent yourself at the highest level possible.

front-of-house manager and the Murchison will become simply another empty building on campus awaiting students for another day of classes.

The UNT men’s basketball team will face a familiar foe in Arlington tonight when it visits the Texas Arlington Mavericks, a team it has faced 51 times.

The contest will be the last teams’s last meeting at Texas Hall, as the Mavericks will open a new arena next year.

“This is basically the battle over the Metroplex right here,” senior forward Roger Franklin said. “That’s how UTA looks at it, and that’s how we look at it. We’re looking for a great game and that’s what we’re going to give everybody.”

UNT leads the all-time series between the two schools 30-21 and has won three of the last five meetings, including an 87-83 win in Denton last season.

Tonight’s game will be the second of seven straight road games for UNT in a stretch that includes games against No. 24 Mississippi State and Texas.

“I think this road stretch will help us down the road,” head coach Johnny Jones said. “Playing in Arlington will be a great chal-lenge for us and a tough environ-ment to play in.”

The Mean Green (1-1) will try to rebound from a disappointing 69-64 loss on Wednesday to the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Despite a 31-point effort from freshman guard Chris Jones, UNT came up short. Porous shooting proved detrimental as the team shot just 37 percent for the game while allowing Tech to shoot 45 percent.

The UNT volleyball team’s season came to a close last weekend, as the Mean Green fell to the highly favored Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders in the semifinals of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament.

Despite the loss, the Mean Green (17-17) became the first UNT volleyball team since 1977 to earn a .500 record in consecu-tive years.

“We played a Top 35 team and they played like it. Unfortunately, we didn’t put too much pres-sure on them and their hitting percentage reflected that,” head coach Ken Murczek said. “We

The UNT women’s basketball team will face a foe it has struggled against recently when it hosts the SMU Mustangs at 7 p.m. today. SMU has had the Mean Green’s number, winning each of the last five and eight of the last nine meetings between the teams. When was the last time UNT defeated its rival from Dallas?

Hint: The last time the Mean Green prevailed over the Mustangs came during the same year that the Miami Heat defeated the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals.

Those who think they know the answer can tweet their guesses to the NT Daily Sports Twitter, @NTDailySports! People who answer correctly will be mentioned in Wednesday’s paper.

Conference foe endsUNT’s season in semis

Mean Green resumes rivalry with Mavericks

Volleyball really had some adversity this year; we could have shut it down this year and just cashed it in for the year, but I really give these girls credit for fighting through everything.”

After beating UNT, MTSU advanced to the tournament final and fell to top-seeded Western Kentucky in four sets.

UNT struggled to keep the high-powered MTSU offense in check, as the Blue Raiders notched a .443 hitting percentage and committed just nine errors. After a strong blocking performance against Arkansas State in the tour-nament’s quarterfinals, the Mean Green failed to record a single block against the Blue Raiders.

“This season was still a great accomplishment, especially since we had such a young team on the on the court,” senior libero Sarah Willey said. “It was tough going out in three sets. We would have liked to give them a better match.”

Senior outside hitter Madison Barr said UNT’s five freshmen will continue to help the Mean Green improve in the next few seasons.

“One of the hardest things about the season ending is just seeing where the program is heading and knowing that as a senior your time is now and the program will be going in a great direction without you,” Barr said. “The underclassmen are definitely going to be doing great things.”

of our mental absence,” senior forward Alonzo Edwards said. “A lot of people might say we are young and inexperienced, but we can’t use that as an excuse.”

The Mavericks (2-0) come in after a lopsided win over East Texas Baptist and a hard-fought win against Louisiana Tech. The Mean Green hopes to break the stingy UTA defense that held its opponents to 38 percent shooting in both its victories.

“We have to execute better than we did against Tech,”

Johnny Jones said. “When we get open shots, we have to take advantage of them since UTA is a good defensive team.”

This game has personal meaning for Franklin. Against UTA, he will have the chance to square off against his former Duncanville High School team-mate, Kevin Butler.

“It’s going to be fun to face my old teammate,” Franklin said. “We’re definitely going to get in each other’s heads. It will be fun.”

“W hen you can’t knock [the ball] in from the half-yard line on offense and you get no turnovers or sacks on defense – I don’t know about other schools – but we can’t win games doing that,” McCarney said.

Occupy Wall Street took our campus by storm. In a matter of days following the beginning of the movement, students, and even non-students, searched for avenues to voice their concerns.

Since the administration’s approval of their stay here on campus more than a month ago, our campus image has degraded. Students no longer pass through the area near the Art Building out of fear of being accosted by these occu-piers. Many tour guides purposely chose not to take students past the area during UNT Preview, a campus event held for prospec-tive students and their parents, for fear of losing their possible commit-ment to UNT.

Through the walls of tents, you can see the rotten apples that sprinkle the ground, the countless dishes that have not been washed, the uncovered trash that has yet to be taken out and the beer cans found inside open tents.

Is this the image that our university wants to convey?

The university has every right and duty to respect the students’ right to free speech, but at what cost? Prospective students will decide not to come to UNT after witnessing the neglect our university has shown these occupiers.

Their presence has violated a number of university regulations,

including the free speech and public assembly policy created by the admin-istration.

According to that policy, a request to assemble must be made to the dean of students if the event may attract more than 25 people. They have extended their stay longer than 15 days, which is reason for a denied request, yet no action has been taken by the admin-istration to remove them.

Moreover, I have ventured out there and witnessed the use of illegal drugs and the consump-tion of alcohol on this area of campus. It happens many times and without conse-quence. Because of these actions alone, this move-ment should not longer be permis-sible.

Something must be done to eradicate the occupiers from our campus. Petitions will go around this week and next to gather support from the student body. There is also a Facebook group that has been created for students to express their concerns regarding this issue in a peaceful atmo-sphere. You can find the group by searching “UNoccupy UNT.”

Help make our campus better again and support this movement. UNT is an institution of higher learning, not a slum.

UC Davis demonstrates need for free speech

What did you think about the pepper

spray incident at UC Davis?

Allison VetereBiology freshman

“It shocked me; I think it’s wrong that they pepper sprayed

them. We have the right to protest!”

Roman HernandezComputer science freshman

“I think it’s a really terrible thing for people to do. I mean, from

what I can see, it’s not like they’re harming anybody or they’re not inhibiting movement, or maybe

they were ‘cause they were on the sidewalk, but stuff like this is inhibiting the right of free

speech and the right to protest. I think it’s just a knock on

local governments or national governments and not protecting

our liberties.”

“I think that’s wrong. We have the right to freedom of speech,

and police officers are leaders of the community. They shouldn’t

be doing that.”

Demonstrators taking part in an Occupy Wall Street protest at the University of California-Davis were met with pepper spray on Friday in an egregious violation of their rights to peaceably assemble.

An officer walked down a line of students seated arm-in-arm and systematically sprayed them in the face as if he were dusting a keyboard or putting pesticide on some weeds.

The most shocking part of the attack is the casual manner of UC Davis police officer Lt. John Pike. Before spraying, Pike displayed the can to the crowd as he paced back and forth across the line of seated protesters. He was clearly in no immediate danger as he climbed over

the shoulders of one student in order to get in the best possible position.

On Saturday, students silently protested UC Davis Chancellor Linda Katehi. During the powerful demon-stration, Katehi took a “walk of shame” past hundreds of silent students while leaving her office and walking to her car. UC Davis administration responded by suspending campus Police Chief Annette Spicuzza, officer Pike and one other officer and announcing a full 30-day investigation.

This is just another in a series of attacks on Occupy protesters throughout the country. In Seattle, a pregnant teen and an 82-year-old woman were both pepper-sprayed by

police. These events should encourage us to consider the role of free speech in each of our lives.

The events at UC Davis hits particu-larly close to home for students. Unlike protests of the past, Occupy didn’t originate on college campuses but has moved there over time. This event could put college campuses at the forefront of the free speech debate once again.

Most Occupy protests are taking place in front of banks or in city parks, which creates a different atmosphere than that of a campus lawn. More than any other institutions, univer-sity campuses should serve as a place to safely foster the free exchange and expression of ideas. That makes this

recent use of force especially hard to swallow.

UNT eliminated free-speech zones in 2009, effectively turning the entire campus into one large free-speech area. It’s important that we appreciate UNT’s open-minded approach to free speech. In recent months Denton’s own Occupy protesters have found peaceful shelter on the UNT campus and have fostered a non-violent relationship with authority.

When one student’s rights are breached, every student should feel it. It’s important that universities main-tain a clear and liberal free-speech policy so that events like this don’t take place.

College football began more than 130 years ago, was played with a ball made from pig bladder and cost schools about $7,000 to run a top-notch program. Fast forward to present day and some universi-ties now spend almost $30 million a year on football. The top-paid head coach took home almost $6 million in 2010 in university pay and bonuses. By paying these figures so much money and tying a school’s identity so closely to its football records, we have turned coaches and players into false idols.

The most recent example of this dangerous practice is the Penn State child molestation scandal. After it was uncovered that head football coach Joe Paterno had prior knowl-edge of former defensive coordi-nator Jerry Sandusky allegedly sexu-ally assaulting young boys, he was promptly fired for not taking the information to the proper authori-ties.

Penn State students and fans were outraged, but no one was knocking over lamp posts because grown men were willing to overlook rumored child abuse. No one was flipping over news vans because long-time Penn State President Graham Spanier was also fired.

They were only outraged because their beloved football coach was gone. After several decades and 409 wins, the Penn State community had put Paterno on a pedestal so high that they believed nothing should knock him off of it – even if he had done something wrong.

This isn’t to say college football should be done away with. Football

has a place in the university system as a source of revenue for the school and entertainment for the fans. Games bring a sense of pride and community to a school and encourage students to interact.

We have to find the balance between celebrating and loving college football and having it completely take over university life.

Would Paterno have done more to expose Sandusky had he not been so immortalized by Penn State students and fans? We may never know the answer to that, but million-dollar paychecks and bronze statues could be enough to cloud even the most ethical man’s judgment.

Is it unfortunate that after such a record-setting career, Paterno’s name will forever be tarnished with this incident? Sure. However, record-setting coach or not, if someone does something so wrong as allowing abuse of children, they should lose their job.

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
