The Center forInternational Education isbringing a worldly perspec-tive to UNC through its annu-al International Week.
International Week kickedoff Sunday with a free base-ball game and food.
One reason why CIE hostsInternational Week is to helpUniversity of NorthernColorado’s international stu-dents feel more at home andto introduce American stu-dents to the customs, tradi-tions and cultures of othernations.
“International Week willlet students have an opportu-nity to explore different cul-tures through sports, foodand education,” said VanjaPejic, a graduate student andthe coordinator for CulturalEvents and Outreach for CIE.“Other UNC clubs and organ-izations will be there sponsor-ing the event and bringingtheir members to differentevents. We’re just trying toshow that UNC has diversity.”
Students said they areexcited about participat-ing in the week’s eventsand getting their friends to
participate, as well.“I think it’s a great oppor-
tunity for diversity and theexperience of all the differenttypes of cultures and tradi-tions seems like it would beinvaluable,” said RachaelBodden, a sophomore nurs-ing major. “The first-handexperience of being sub-merged in a different cultureis way more memorable thanwhat you would get from abook. I’m most looking for-ward to the salsa dancing anddancing like a pro. I love try-ing new things and meetingnew people while havingfun.”
Other students are plan-ning on attending all of theevents offered this week.
“I’m definitely looking for-ward to International Week,”said Marisa Roggensack, afreshman elementary educa-tion major. “I’m going toevery single event. After per-sonally traveling to SierraLeone, West Africa, two differ-ent times, I know I love learn-ing about and experiencingnew and different culturesother than my own and meet-ing lots of new people. I thinkthis week is going to be ablast.”

Mirror Reflections are the opinion of The Mirror’s editorial board: Parker Cotton, Ryan Lambert, Sara Van Cleve, Melanie Vasquez and Benjamin Welch. Let us know what you think.E-mail us at [email protected].
The past week has been asomber one for our country aswe recognize the 10-yearanniversary of the terroristattack on our great nation.
One of the only positives thatcame out of this tragedy is the9/11 generation and the resolvethey have demonstrated. In noother circumstance could thisbe so vividly exemplified.
Both our military and thecountry’s first responders havenot only grown stronger andformed an unbreakable bond,but have developed a resolvelike no other.
We owe our utmost grati-tude to the Special Forces and
military who have shown thatresolve in the recent opera-tions to exterminate OsamaBin Laden. We owe our utmostgratitude to the first respon-ders who were there to rescueand sacrifice their lives to saveothers.
Our country is not onlystronger because of thistragedy, but arguably a saferone, thanks to all the peoplewho risk their lives every day toprotect us, as well as vigilantcitizens who are willing to stepup as the eyes and ears to fendoff terrorism.
Sure, there is some incon-venience due to greater safety
precautions, such as the issuessurrounding airport security,but overall we are a much safercountry because of theserecent safety measures.
With the dual war that isgoing on in both Iraq andAfghanistan, our military hasbeen stretched to the limit.However, we still have youngmen and women stepping upto an all-volunteer force toserve their country and liveand die in a land that is so for-eign to the life we know. Thisnot only shows the resolve thatour country has developed, butalso shows the love that isdemonstrated throughout our
country, both for our nationand our neighbors.
The terrorists thought theycould break us by attacking thevery symbols that representour great nation. They thoughtthey could break the Americanspirit and bring us to ourknees.
The tragedy 10 years agounited America in a way that ithas never been in recent histo-ry, and the decade anniversaryhas reunited us once again.
This week was a tough onefor our country, but it has alsobrought out the best in ournation, from coast to coast andsea to shining sea.
Terror attacks unified nation, enhanced country’s resolve
For the past several years,I have reviewed 9/11media. Each year, I
watch video footage of UnitedAirlines Flight 175 hitting theSouth Tower, I view the image ofthe Falling Man, and I listen torecordings of people’s reactions.
I do this because it’s impor-tant to remember history so thatwe can prevent it from recurringand because textual facts canonly illustrate so much. Truly,Sept. 11, 2001, was a sad day, as iseach anniversary of the attacks.
But apart from yesterday’sremembrance of Sept. 11, 2001, I
believe it was a sad day becauseof New York City Mayor MichaelBloomberg’s decision to enact aban on clergy being an officialpart of the ceremony.
Members on both sides of theissue have argued extensively inthe past few weeks over the FirstAmendment’s EstablishmentClause. While I do not believe theclause was ever written with theintent of prohibiting things that arecommonly prohibited by it today,the First Amendment argument isa digression from the purpose ofthe 9/11 memorial ceremony.
The ceremony, inBloomberg’s own words, was andshould have been about the fami-lies, the victims and those wholuckily walked away with theirlives, as well as the troops whohave risked their lives to over-throw the Taliban and who hunt-
ed Osama bin Laden. Whatever Bloomberg’s intent
was concerning banning clergy (alegitimate attack against religiousexpression, a concern over theEstablishment Clause, etc.), hismandate detracted from the pur-pose of the ceremony.
In May, 92 percent ofAmericans surveyed by USAToday and Gallup indicated theyhad a belief in God. Bloombergmay have wanted to preventatheists and agnostics from beingoffended by clergy at the event,but in a nation as diverse as ours,offense is bound to happen.Actions and events should not belegislated on that factor, norshould they necessarily be found-ed on precedence.
The reality of the matter isthat most people turn to God intimes of grief, not politicians, as
evidenced by Obama’s reading ofPsalm 46 during the ceremony.The afterlife is an integral part ofevery single major religiousbelief, and in the remembranceof something like the 9/11attacks, not having clergy as anofficial part of the ceremonydetracts from the comfort ofthose who believe in God.
In consideration of the factthat Mychal Judge, a Catholicpriest, who rushed into the tow-ers on his own volition to deliverprayers and aid, was the first offi-cial victim of the attacks, not hav-ing clergy as an official part of theceremony is saddening. I onlyhope that Bloomberg’s decisionwas made under non-researchedconcern, not a political agenda.

Students interested inearth science can now learnmore about the latest
research and findings in thefield even when they are out-side of the classroom at UNC.
The Earth ScienceSeminar series, hosted every
Friday, features lectures ondifferent topics of interest inthe scientific community pre-sented by University ofNorthern Colorado facultyand other guest speakers.
“The program has beenaround for as long as thedepartment,” said PaulNutter, assistant professor inmeteorology and host of lastweek’s seminar. “It is usuallycommon in science pro-grams to keep students intouch with what is going on inthe science industry.”
Topics that the EarthScience Seminar series coversinclude geology, natural gas,volcanic rocks and climatechange.
“Basically all the thingsthat the Earth ScienceSeminar covers can be foundat the Denver Museum ofNature and Science,” Nuttersaid.
Every faculty member inthe department has theopportunity to host a seminarand invite speakers to jointhem in discussions.
Nutter’s topic Friday wasquasi-geostrophic dynamics
of the Arctic coastal jet stream. Nutter worked with Derek
Starkenburg, who at the timeof their research was a gradu-ate student interested in theArctic, and said they decidedto work on trying to determineif the Arctic has a jet stream.
“First, to understand thequasi-geostrophic dynamicsof the Arctic coastal jet streamin the summer, you have tounderstand what the jetstream is,” Nutter said.
The jet stream is tempera-ture and pressure differencescombined with the wind pat-tern and speed. More simply,uneven heating causes a jetstream.
Nutter said it is importantto pay attention to jet streamsbecause they can lead tofloods and other severeweather and can help meteo-rologists figure out seasonalforecasting.
While some studentsattend the Earth ScienceSeminar series because theyare required to for class,many attend because theyare genuinely interested inthe seminars.
“I was a weather caster forthe military before I trans-ferred here,” said DaniTalmadge, a senior meteorol-ogy major. “Once I got out ofthe military, I had to finish mydegree to get any jobs. I thinkthis seminar is a great ideabecause it shows studentswhat is going on in the worldof science.”
The seminar has alsocreated a loyal following
since it started.“I’ve been to every semi-
nar for three years,” saidKevin Pollack, a junior earthscience major. “It depends onwho is hosting it sometimesbecause some tend to get tootechnical and they need toknow how to put what theyare saying into simple terms.”

Seminar series creates new world of learning opportunites

Letter to the EditorNICK CANDLER
In the last two weeks, I’vehad the chance to read twoconservative approaches tothe debt crises, one by JoshDivine and another by KarlHonegger. In the former,Divine asserts that taxing therich is an unfair act that willonly result in irresponsiblespending. In the latter,Honegger asserts that anydollar taxed from the richhurts the poor, becauseeventually it would have
trickled down to them.I’ve heard time and again
how taxing the rich is wrongfor many reasons — most ofwhich make no sense to me.I hear that they are job cre-ators, spenders and that theywork hard for every cent theyhave. These assertions allassume that the success ofthe middle and lower class iscreated by the wealthy.Rather, it is the upper classthat is a product of the lowerand middle class. Withoutthe masses to pump money
into big business, to do thejobs that the rich wouldnever succumb themselvesto, and to act as cogs in agiant machine, then themachine would never run.
It has and will always bethe lower and middle classesthat make America success-ful. They are the ones whobuild small businesses: thetrue creators of jobs inAmerica. They are the oneswho work the dirty jobs andfuel industry. They are theones who feel it the hardest
when a recession hits.Right now in the U.S., we
are experiencing the greatestincome distribution gap inthe last hundred years. I donot feel bad whatsoever tax-ing the richest set ofAmericans to have ever lived— many of which who wouldhappily exchange theMedicare check your grand-mother receives for a onepercent drop in their incometax.

‘Walk for Life’ raises awareness of common, silent struggleKELSEY HAMMON
Students are learning towalk away from suicide,thanks to the inauguralWalk for Life at UNC.
Coordinated by UNCstudents Courtney Senkand Lisa Forbes, the walkboth raised awareness andfunds for suicide preven-tion Saturday.
Senk and Forbes part-nered the University ofNorthern Colorado’sCounseling Center withWeld County’s Center forMental Health and NorthRange Behavioral Healthto host a suicide aware-ness walk from the GardenTheater to Bishop-LehrField.
“Suicide is often keptsilent,” Forbes said. “Weneed to put it out in theopen so that people feel it’s
OK to talk about.” Before the walk, partici-
pants were provided with T-shirts and pamphlets aboutcounseling services avail-able to students and signs tolook for if a person is sus-pect of being suicidal.
Speaker Patty Lloyd,who opened the ceremony,described how she becameinvolved with the SuicideEducation and SupportServices of North RangeBehavioral Health.
Lloyd’s son took his lifewith a firearm May 10, 1994,when he was 20 years old.The death was difficult forthe family to cope with, andequally difficult for herson’s girlfriend, who killedherself shortly following hisdeath.
Devastated by the deathof two people she loved,Lloyd said she looked backand tried to pick out the
warning signs. “People used to call them
Barbie and Ken,” Lloyd said. Lloyd said her son and
his girlfriend were bothhappy and popular people.
With much love and sup-port, Lloyd was able to workthrough the trauma the sui-cides caused, and decidedshe would start working forSESS through the NorthRange Behavioral center.
“I never wanted any par-ent to have to go throughwhat I had been through,”Lloyd said.
Linda Black, a counseloreducation professor at UNCand the chair of theDepartment of CounselorEducation and Supervision,shared some statisticsabout the prevalence of sui-cide among young people.
“For every completedsuicide there are 25attempts,” Black said.
“Colorado is the sixth statein the nation with the high-est suicide rates.”
At the end of the walkwere games and activitiesfor participants, includ-ing a poker tournamentand music from the bandRandom Hero.
Students said they wereproud to have been giventhe chance to represent sui-cide awareness.
Alyssa Shuman andDanielle Weisse, both stu-dents at UNC, led the walkby carrying a banner thatsaid “hope.” They both said
the walk was fun to be a partof and very inspirational.
Sara Ramsey, anotherparticipating UNC stu-dent, also said the walkwas beneficial.
“It’s good there is anorganization talking aboutsuicide,” Ramsey said.

Football’s second half comeback not enoughPARKER COTTON
It wasn’t always pretty,but a second-half resur-gence on offense made theUNC football team’s 33-14loss to Colorado State looka little less ugly.
The University ofNorthern Colorado (0-2)had 49 total yards andtrailed 28-0 at halftime onSaturday, and UNC held theRams (2-0) to a field goalearly in the third quarterbefore the Bears’ offensefinally got going.
Junior quarterbackMatt Baca, who replacedstarter Dylan Orms in thesecond quarter, completedpasses to wide receiversDominic Gunn and PatrickWalker before gettingsome ground support.
Sophomore running backQuintin Hildreth rushed fourtimes for 42 yards, setting upBaca’s 10-yard touchdownpass to junior wide receiverChris Morris for the Bears’first score.
“The running game defi-nitely picked up, and ofcourse, when the runninggame picks up the passinggame will pick up, too,” saidBaca, who finished with 56yards on 6-of-14 passing withone touchdown and aninterception.
In the fourth quarter,Baca was sacked for a safety,but the Bears’ defense forceda turnover on downs onCSU’s ensuing possession.Hildreth ran for a 66-yardtouchdown on the first playof UNC’s next drive, com-
pleting the scoring.“It’s always fun to play
against a big crowd and scoreagainst another team insidetheir house, but as a team wedidn’t get the job done,”Hildreth said of his run,which was the longest for aBear since Tyrone Wilson ranfor 75 yards against IdahoState on Oct. 11, 2008.
UNC head coachEarnest Collins Jr. said hewas proud of his team forout-scoring the Rams 14-5in the second half.
“A loss is a loss, but what Iappreciated from our playerswas I challenged them tocome out in the second halfand win the second half,”Collins said. “We were down28-0, and we easily couldhave folded and it could havebeen 56-0, but I challengedthe kids to come out and winthe second half.”
The first half was thecomplete opposite of thesecond.
Orms started in placeof injured sophomore Seth
Lobato and threw aninterception, leading to aCSU score 31 secondslater. Orms played the restof the first quarter and oneseries in the second beforegiving way to Baca.
“I wasn’t expecting at allto play in the second quar-ter,” Baca said. “I was pre-pared to give Dylan all thesignals and everything likethat, and then they told meto get ready, so I got readyand went in.”
When CSU went up bythree touchdowns in the sec-ond quarter, UNC’s defensestarted having more of aneffect on the game.
UNC defensive backMarcel Gibbons had aninterception with less thanfour minutes left in the sec-ond, and junior linebackerCameron Friend had twointerceptions, one in thethird and fourth quarters.
CSU had 501 offensiveyards which, despite Rams’sophomore quarterbackPete Thomas surpassing
3,000 career passing yards inthe game, UNC senior safetyElliott Dorsey attributed theRams’ offense mostly to therunning backs and offensiveline, which racked up 242rushing yards and threetouchdowns.
“I’m more so impressedwith their offensive line,”said Dorsey, who led all play-ers with 16 tackles. “Theyobviously have two goodbacks, but the offensive lineactually carried the team andtheir running game.
Despite the loss, UNCplayers said they were con-fident they could build onthe second half againstCSU to have success therest of the season.
“We won the secondhalf, and we showed whatwe can do,” Baca said. “Inthe Big Sky, we’re gonnacome and shake somethings up.”
That first Big Sky testcomes at Idaho State at4:05 p.m. Saturday inPocatello, Idaho.

Defensive achievements become silver lining in lossSAMANTHA FOX
Regardless of thepoints, the UNC footballteam’s defense saw agame of career-bests intheir defeat at CSU onSaturday.
Colorado State had alittle more than 41 min-utes of possession duringthe game, which gave theUniversity of NorthernColorado linebackers anddefensive backs time toutilize their skills andcapitalize on the unevenplaying time.
For seniorsafety ElliottDorsey, thegame allowedhim to not onlybreak hiscareer-best ofseven tackles,but Dorseymore than dou-bled his previ-ous record with16 stops.Despite thenumbers, Dorseysaid improvement is whathe is always looking for.
“I want to get better fornext week — just get bet-ter,” Dorsey said. “I want
to triple it fornext week.”
For the firsttime since 2009,the Bearsdefense hadthree intercep-tions. Juniorl i n e b a c k e rC a m e r o nFriend and jun-ior defensiveback MarcelGibbons bothhad their first
interceptions of theircareers. Gibbons also hadhis first career sack.Friend made the third andfinal interception for the
Bears, but said he shouldnot be given the solecredit for the plays.
“Our D-line made agood play in the firstpick,” Friend said.“(Junior linebacker Aisea)Vave got through and hewas able to tip the ball,and I just looked for theball in the air and I foundit, but that was D-line allthe way because they’rethe one who made thatplay possible.”
Coming together as adefense is what madeFriend’s plays possible,but he said the game’satmosphere made the
moment more special.“I know a lot of people
at CSU — everyone’s talk-ing about the CSU-UNC
game, so it was a bigmoment,” Friend said.“My family was here,everybody was here, so itwas a big moment for theteam more than anything,though, because I just dowhatever I need to do sothe offense can go backon the field and scoresome points.”
Also with a career-bestwas senior defensive backChucks Nweke with 11tackles, breaking his pre-vious record of six.

Elliott Dorsey led all players witha career-high 16tackles againstCSU on Saturday.

259 yards, all by sopho-more Pete Thomas, whowas the youngest quarter-back in CSU history tothrow for 3,000 yards inhis collegiate career. WithThomas’ passing, UNC’s
secondary had the oppor-tunities to gain the picksand tackles.
“We’re not really tooconcerned with the passgame (efficiency),”Dorsey said. “We haveconfidence in the second-ary, and so we just game
plan for each team. Wedon’t come out there andwe don’t worry about anyof the rest of the games.We just do what we needto do.”
During the second halfof the game, UNC out-scored the Rams 14-5, butthat was not enough toovercome the 28-0 deficitthe Bears needed to comeback from.
UNC head coachEarnest Collins Jr. saidthe second half changedthe game, and that suc-cess proves there are sil-ver linings even in defeat.
“We lost the game, that’sthe bottom line,” Collinssaid. “We lost the game, butat the same time whenyou’ve been getting beat forfive, six, seven years in arow you have to take every-thing you can to build uponit, and we’re going to buildupon this second half. Wewon the second half 14-5and we’re going to build onthat and keep going.”
