Despite being rela-tively safe from extensive damage, members of the Greeley community have come together to aid those in need of relief after KHDY\� UDLQV� DQG� ÁRRGLQJ�took Colorado by storm just a couple months ago.

The national news cov-erage may be gone, but families across the state are still trying to put their lives back together —which is something that art students and faculty at the University of Northern Colorado realize.

UNC volleyball’s three-match winning streak came to a screech-ing halt Saturday night at Portland State as the Vikings (18-10, 15-3 Big Sky) took down the University of Northern Colorado (12-16, 8-10) in straight sets by scores of 25-19, 25-19 and 25-23.

Junior middle blocker Bri Strong led the Bears with 14 kills on .476 hit-ting percentage. No other UNC player reached double digits in kills. Only senior libero Me-rideth Johnson (14) and sophomore outside hitter Kendra Cunningham (10) surpassed the double-digit barrier in digs Saturday.

As a team, UNC hit just .170 compared to PSU’s .244. Portland State senior outside hitter Kaeli Patton racked up 19 assists in the three sets on .500 hitting with just two attack errors.

With the loss and a Sacramento State win over Weber State Satur-day, the Bears move back into seventh place in the Big Sky, one spot out of the conference champion-ship tournament with two matches left in the confer-ence season.

Native American Student Services hosted “Thanksgiving is Everyday” celebra-tion Wednesday at the Kohl House. The event recognized the many ways people celebrate Thanksgiving, traditional and non-traditional. The event also o!ered free food and entertainment. Page 6

A successful run for the UNC wrestling squad began early and continued throughout all of Satur-day during the annual Old Chicago Open at Butler-Hancock Sports Pavilion.

The Old Chicago Open hosts a number of school, almost all of them smaller than the University of Northern Colorado. See-ing as the schools and wrestling squads are

smaller, the event gives the Bears the chance to build wins and allows VRPH�ZUHVWOHUV�D�ÀUVW�RS-portunity to compete in the season.

In the last year, advo-cates of marijuana reform have had ample reason to celebrate.

The prospects of in-creased tax revenue, decreased spending on enforcement and incarcer-ation and depleting crimi-nal activity have warmed a considerable portion of the population to the idea of legalizing recreational marijuana.

I appreciate the legisla-tive reforms that have le-galized or decriminalized marijuana in some form in 21 states across the United States.

Still, I believe the greatest appeal of can-nabis lies not in its psy-choactive effects, but rather in its cultivation for biofuels, textiles, food products and many other

consumer goods. As the discourse on

marijuana reform moves forward and gains promi-nence on the national stage, I encourage advo-cates and opponents alike to consider the multi-facet-ed nature of this issue

The appeal of canna-bis extends far beyond the bong, and as such, we should not limit the dia-logue around its regulation to its consumption as a psychoactive substance.

Industrial hemp thrived as a leading cash crop in America until the 20th century.

The end of the golden age of industrial hemp cultivation began with the passage of the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937, and de-spite a brief resurgence fueled by government sub-

sidies during World War II, industrial hemp produc-tion essentially ceased in America by the 1950s.

Recently, the U.S. House of Representatives approved an amendment to House Resolution 1947, which allows for the culti-vation of industrial hemp at colleges and universities in states where it is already legal without fear of fed-eral interference.

The cultivation of in-dustrial hemp at colleges and universities will allow for important research on the use of cannabis in tex-tiles, building materials, food and biofuels.

On Nov. 6, Colorado RIÀFLDOV� XQYHLOHG� D� SUR-posed framework for the regulation of industrial hemp in the state. The regulation will require

farmers to pay a $200 an-nual fee with an additional $1 for every acre of hemp planted. Commissioners in the Colorado Department of Agriculture must now approve the regulations.

It is unlikely the federal government will interfere with the development of the industrial hemp indus-try in Colorado, but hemp itself is still a schedule one substance and no federal bill has yet been approved decriminalizing hemp pro-duction on a broad scale.

The U.S. Senate is cur-rently sitting on the Indus-trial Hemp Farming Act of 2013, which would ex-clude industrial hemp from WKH�GHÀQLWLRQ�RI�PDULMXDQD��

Essentially, hemp would no longer be cou-pled with marijuana as a controlled substance and

accordingly be subject to separate regulation. The bill requires farmers to grow industrial hemp in accordance with state law and to maintain THC lev-els in their crop not ex-ceeding 0.3 percent.

The Industrial Hemp Farming Act of 2013 is compelling legislation with great bipartisan sup-port—a democratic spon-sor with two republican sponsors and an indepen-dent.

Regardless of their pref-erence for pot, I encourage all people to research the EHQHÀWV�RI�LQGXVWULDO�KHPS�and to support legislation that allows for the cultiva-tion of hemp.

I was reading through a very old issue of Vogue Magazine the other day, and I came across a feature on Diablo Cody.

In it, the stripper-turned-screenwriter jokes that she is “clinging to her youth” and uses a tattoo she has as an example of this inability to grow up.

That tattoo was of a cookie, so I don’t think it was the author’s intention to imply anything here, but it got me to thinking about the way people view tattoos and piercings as some kind of rebel-lion reserved only for youth.

What’s that all about? I guess I don’t know what percentage of people get tattoos in their early 20s versus their early 40s, but I kind of resent the idea that only the young and foolish would have the nerve to permanently modify their bodies. The idea that, if you are a 30-something looking for a job in the profes-sional world, you had better not have any visible tattoos or pierc-ings if you want to be taken seri-ously.

I’ve been told, as well, that it goes double for me because I’m a woman.

But what bearing does my ORYH�IRU�ERG\�PRGLÀFDWLRQ�UHDOO\�have on my ability to carry out a job?

I know I was raised with the mentality of an achiever, wheth-er or not I have a small tattoo on my wrist or a piercing that goes through my septum.

That my exterior is received as being disruptive does not sud-denly make me unworthy of be-ing taken seriously as a profes-sional and productive member of society.

The kinds of people who are attracted to tattoos and piercings are not limited to just vagabonds and kids in high school on a quest to piss off their moms and teachers.

They tend to be the kinds of people who are also very inter-ested in other modes of personal expression. They are our writers, our poets, our artists, our musi-cians and our fashion-oriented friends.

They are those souls who make it their daily mission to dive deep into themselves and emerge with understanding. They are few and far between, and ultimately, I think this is what is behind the way people

tend to recoil from those of us who decide we want to pay to be pricked with needles on our fac-es or sit still for hours at a time as ornate decorations are carved into our skin.

In a world that promotes con-formity, it takes a certain amount of self-assuredness to decide you know you want to change the way your body looks for the rest of your life.

I think that kind of assertive-ness of the self—of knowing ex-actly who you are and not being ashamed that “who you are” isn’t mainstream—is something that engenders anxiety and some-times anger in others.

The concept of women’s issues as human issues was the driving force of the 4th Annual Women’s Confer-ence at UNC Thursday.

Every year the theme of the conference changes. This year’s theme was, “Feminism is for every-body: join a movement to end sexist oppression.”

“If you care about hu-man rights, you should care about women’s rights,” said keynote speaker Carlos An-dres Gomez. “Feminism is advocating for human rights.”

Four years ago, UNC’s Student Senate granted ad-ditional funds to allow a Women’s Conference. The conference began as a way to bring students, faculty and staff together in a me-dium that would support discussion about issues that impact women today.

The conference has ex-panded in size and depth over the last four years.

“Our organizing com-mittee has brought forth amazing and inspiring ideas that have allowed for each conference to improve ev-ery year,” said Yvette Luce-ro-Nguyen, director of the Women’s Resource Center and Stryker Institute for Leadership Development.

Gomez, an award-win-ning poet and performer, star of HBO’s “Def Poetry Jam” and author of com-ing- of-age memoir “Man Up,” discussed what he thinks it means to be a man, and what it could or should mean.

Gomez had previously performed at last month’s “Take Back the Night against Women Oppres-sion” at UNC’s Garden Theatre. He was asked to FRPH�EDFN�DV�WKH�ÀUVW�PDOH�speaker for the Women’s Conference.

Gomez’s interest in the conference sprouts from his childhood. He said he felt

shamed for not embracing traditional values of what a boy should be. He was expressive and nurturing, and people told him that he could not be.

“I became a man when I UHDOL]HG�WKDW�WKHUH·V�LQÀQLWH�ways to be a man,” he said.

Guest speakers dis-cussed many other topics. One such topic was rape culture: the stereotypes of sexuality, media presenta-tions of sexual assault as normal and victim-blaming.

Some more topics in-FOXGHG� VH[� WUDIÀFNLQJ��masculinity and why femi-nism should be important WR� PHQ�� JHQGHU� FRQÁLFW��assertive communication in women’s self-empower-PHQW�� DQG�PHGLD� VWDQGDUGV�of unrealistic beauty and its impact on women of color.

Research shows that PDQ\� ZRPHQ� ÀQG� LW� GLI-ÀFXOW� WR� EDODQFH� WKH� QHHG�to take care of themselves with the traditional female role of putting everyone else’s needs above their own. Speakers discussed the importance of taking care of one’s self and the effects of ignoring those personal needs.

The women’s movement has allowed women to hold positions of power in busi-ness, religion, and govern-ment, but there are still ways in which women have inequality. Speaker Claudia Milstead discussed how far the women’s movement has come and how much fur-ther it needs to go.

Keynote speaker Sara Alcid, a feminist with back-ground in gender and sexu-ality studies, discussed why people should care about feminism if they also care DERXW� /*%74� � HTXDOLW\��GLVPDQWOLQJ� UDSH� FXOWXUH��LPPLJUDWLRQ� UHIRUP�� ERG\�DFFHSWDQFH�� DQG� UHSURGXF-tive rights.

Event attendees ex-pressed their approval for the guest speakers and the topics discussed.

“(The conference) reiter-ated how important femi-nism is and that it really is for everyone,” said Fresh-man acting major Katie Hamilton. “A lot of people are afraid of feminism be-cause they don’t really un-derstand what it is. Really it’s just wanting equality for everyone. So why wouldn’t you want to be a feminist?

The Native American Student Services annual Thanksgiving is Every-day celebration was at Kohl House Wednesday. The small building was full with people talking, packed into chairs.

Three men beat a cow-hide drum in unison and chanted.

The food was tradi-tional Thanksgiving fare: VWXIÀQJ�� PDVKHG� SRWDWRHV�and gravy, green bean cas-serole, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie and yams with marshmallows, as well as some less typical choices like chili and jala-peño poppers wrapped in bacon.

Holidays similar to Thanksgiving are not just celebrated in the United States; it’s also celebrated in Canada, Japan, and Li-beria, just to name a few.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates more than 45 million turkeys are eaten in the United States on Thanksgiving.

Megan Billington, freshman human services major said the event meant a lot to her.

“This shows how peo-ple form communities over food,” she said. “I come

from Texas and I have Na-tive American heritage. 7KLV� LV� OLNH� D�ÁDVKEDFN� WR�me.”

One of the drummers spoke to the crowd about the music they were play-ing.

The music would be typically accompanied by a circle dance. He described how women draped in shawls would dance around the drum.

The dances were grand social events. They would often start at 8 p.m. and end at 5 a.m.

“We are fortunate to have these songs,” he said. “We’re trying to carry it on. A lot of people don’t understand the songs and dances. But there’s a lot of power in them, so it’s im-portant to have respect. Be respectful of other ways and nationalities. Don’t forget your culture.”

Before the event ended, one of the drummers per-formed Pawnee and Ponca prayer songs as a blessing onto Kohl House and ev-eryone in attendance.

“Thanksgiving should be every day, not just on RQH� VSHFLÀF� GDWH�µ� VHQLRU�Mikayla Alexis said. Alex-is also said Thanksgiving should serve to educate the masses about Native American history.

Hundreds of thousands of stu-dent dollars are set aside each semester for one purpose: the implementation of sustainable projects on the UNC campus.

How to best use that money is left entirely in the hands of the student body, with Student LEAF acting as a facilitator in the pro-cess.

Student LEAF was created as WKH� ÀQDO� SURMHFW� RI� WKH� (QYLURQ-mental and Sustainability Studies senior seminar in spring 2012. It ZDV�YRWHG�RQ�E\�WKH�VWXGHQW�ERG\��which agreed to set aside one dol-lar per credit hour (up to ten dol-lars) in a Student LEAF fund.

“The committee markets to the student body, and we try and get students excited about doing

a sustainable project on campus,” said Brian Gilmore, president of Student LEAF.

Their work includes encour-aging students to submit propos-als for projects they would like to see implemented, conducting marketing feasibility studies to get an idea of that projects stu-GHQWV�KDYH� LQ�PLQG�� DQG�DOORFDW-ing funds to different projects.

The UNC Board of Trustees met Friday to discuss the “Innovation@UNC” initiative and prom-ising new numbers regard-ing both state funding and student enrollment.

University of Northern Colorado Provost Robbyn Wacker provided an over-view of the Innovation@UNC initiative, which UNC President Kay Nor-WRQ� ÀUVW� LQWURGXFHG� LQ� KHU�state of the university ad-dress in September.

The initiative promises to spend $1 million over two years on innovative projects that promote the “fundamental tenets of teaching and learning” val-ued by the university.

The initiative seeks

project proposals in four areas of concentration: new programs, new learn-ers, new pedagogies and student success.

Faculty, staff and stu-dents at UNC are all wel-come to submit project proposals by writing a two-page concept paper outlining their idea and submitting it electronically at www.unco.edu/innova-tion.

Concept papers are due Jan. 31. Following the deadline, campus comment teams and consultants will provide feedback to the proposal review team be-fore the team selects the winning proposals on Feb. 28.

The selected applicants will then have until April 4 to fully develop their pro-posals. The review team

ZLOO� RIÀFLDOO\� DQQRXQFH�the funded proposals on April 28.

The initiative comes at a time when the univer-sity seeks to do more with less, particularly in terms of providing adequate ser-vices to more students for less money. However, the university may be getting a much-needed boost in state funding if the joint bud-get committee approves the 2014-2015 state bud-get proposed by Governor John Hickenlooper.

President Norton briefed the board on the details of Hickenlooper’s proposed 2014-2015 bud-get. The budget calls for $100 million in additional funding for public higher education institutions in Colorado.

Of the $100 million,

$40 mil-lion will go towards s u p p l e -m e n t i n g f i n a n c i a l aid pro-grams and $60 mil-lion will go towards supporting the operational costs of Colorado universi-ties.

The board anticipates that the budget would add $3.7 million to the univer-sity’s operating budget. The increase would re-store the university to 1999 funding levels.

Provost Wacker and Vice President of Finance and Administration Mi-chelle Quinn provided more good news for the board when they conducted

a review of the university’s enrollment following the RIÀFLDO�FHQVXV�GD\�6HSW��

The report indicates that the university has actually JURZQ�VLQFH�WKH�ÀUVW�GD\�RI�classes with the number of initially enrolled students growing from 11,865 on WKH�ÀUVW�GD\�RI�WKH�VHPHVWHU�to 12,084 as of census day on Sept. 9.

Despite slight growth this fall, the university re-mains three percent below enrollment as of fall 2012.

A quarter of the student body is now comprised of minority identifying stu-dents and 36 percent of UNC undergraduate stu-GHQWV� DUH� WKH� ÀUVW� LQ� WKHLU�family to attend college. The university is also at-tracting more international students.

The university experi-

enced a 6 percent increase in international enrollment at the undergraduate level and a 23 percent increase in international students enrolling in the graduate school.

At the conclusion of the meeting, the board passed a resolution to recognize the work of board member Denise “Dee” St. Cyr.

St. Cyr’s four-year term on the board of trustees ends Dec. 31.

St. Cyr is the director of business development for CADDO Solutions, an American Indian-owned RIÀFH� SURGXFWV� FRPSDQ\�in Denver. St. Cyr is also nationally know for Native American advocacy.

The next board meeting will be at 8:30 a.m. Jan. 24 in the Panorama Room at the University Center.

The clock is ticking until the 50th anniversary special of the hit BBC show “Doctor Who” pre-mieres Saturday after a seven-month hiatus. The anniversary episode will double as the show’s eighth series (British TV lingo for season) premiere.

Amanda Kruger, a freshman business major at the University of Northern Colorado, is one of many Bears excited for the return of the last of Time Lords.

“I’m looking forward to seeing the 10th and 11th Doctors interact, as well as just the excitement of this being the 50th anniversary, which is super exciting cause shows never last that long,” Kruger said.

7R� NLFN� RII� WKH� ÀQDO�countdown, BBC released “The Night of the Doctor,” a mini-sode prequel to the 50th anniversary special, “The Day of the Doctor.” This six minute video gen-erated massive amounts of feedback from fans.

With John Hurt join-ing the cast of “Doctor Who” at the end of series seven, many fans have been wondering who his Doctor could possibly be. “The Night of the Doctor” shed a bit more light on the mystery of the new Doctor, dubbed the “War Doctor.”

“I’m interested to see how it’ll play out consider-ing that in the mini-sode he looked much younger (than at the end of the last sea-son),” VanDelinder said. “And Time Lords don’t age properly.”

Steven Moffat, lead writer of “Doctor Who,” told BBC media relations that John Hurt’s Doctor will not count towards the other twelve.

“I’ve been really, re-ally quite careful about the numbering of the Doctors,” Moffat told BBC Ameri-ca’s Fraser McApline.

´+H·V� YHU\� VSHFLÀF�� WKH�John Hurt Doctor, that he doesn’t take the name of the Doctor. He doesn’t call himself that. He’s the same Time Lord, the same be-

In order to keep spoil-ers at a minimum, the BBC will be playing “The Day of the Doctor” at the same time worldwide. UNC stu-dents do not receive BBC America in the residence halls, but that isn’t going to keep the dedicated Who-vians that live on campus from watching.

The Kress Cinema and Lounge (817 8th Avenue) will be showing “The Day of the Doctor” live at 1 p.m. Saturday. Tickets are $7. The Nerd Store (807 8th Street) will host an after party in conjunction with the showing.

“The Day of the Doctor” will also be shown in 3D at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 25, at the Cinemark in the Greeley Mall. Tickets can be pur-chased for $15 at fathom-events.com.

The sound of a lone gui-tar and a solo voice echoed off the canvas covered walls, as listeners sipped warm coffee and tea.

An open mic night host-ed by John Galt Coffee in Greeley on Friday evening where guests could gather, listen or perform. It was WKH�ÀUVW�RSHQ�PLF�QLJKW�RI�the fall season. Open mic nights will be at John Galt Coffee Company’s Atlas Theater (709 16th Street) on the third Friday of each month.

The event is free and open to all ages.

Performers can sing, play an instrument or both. The type of instrument is unrestricted, and Atlas will provide a piano, drum set and several other in-

struments. All of Friday’s performers played original works on the guitar.

“The music is very calming and soothing. It allows for me to get away from the crazy week. It brings the forest in Estes Park to mind,” said patron Kirk Pieper of Loveland.

Many of the attendees found the event to be a great family gathering cen-ter, and a wonderful place to bring friends.

Some audience mem-bers brought their children, who danced in front of the crowd as music played.

A three or four year old boy politely asked a musi-cian to sing another song, even after his session had ended. A large smile spread across the boy’s youthful face when the music start-ed once again.

“I obtain my inspiration

everywhere,” said Joe Lee Parker, who performed for the event. “I am inspired by other musicians, such as The Beatles. I like to think of it as a gift.”

Some attended to sup-port the performers or join a friend for an interesting outing. Some cited an in-terest in community art as an impetus to come out for the event.

“As an artist, I like to support the arts,” said Sandy Pieper, a resident of Loveland. “I am new to the Greeley area and I enjoy seeing what new events are out there.”

The event had attract-ed artists, musicians, and those who have a passion for music. Many believed it allowed for a great place to unwind and leave all worries in the past out of sight.

The UNC club hockey team suffered its fourth loss of the season Saturday af-ternoon at the Greeley Ice Haus against the University of Denver 10-4.

The University of North-ern Colorado (14-4-1) com-mitted eleven penalties against the Pioneers and allowed six goals on the re-sulting power plays.

Three of DU’s man-up

JRDOV� FDPH� RQ� D� ÀYH�PLQ-ute power play after UNC junior goalie Owen Rauer was assessed a major penal-ty and game misconduct for throwing his stick at a Pio-neers skater. Bears junior goalie Nate Chomyn came in cold and was beaten on all three goals.

While the penalty kill was unable to keep up with the Pioneers’ power play unit, UNC senior defense-man Brandon Pougnet did score twice with the extra man.

Pougnet said he was simply completing the task assigned to the point man

on the power play.“The main job as a de-

fenseman is to get the puck through,” he said. “I had some good screens in front of the net and I was able to get it through.”

The teams entered the third period tied at four, but the Pioneers’ offensive out-EXUVW�LQ�WKH�ÀQDO��PLQXWHV�proved too much for the Bears.

Pougnet said he and the other leaders on the team made sure their teammates kept level heads despite the IUXVWUDWLRQ� RI� WKH� ÀQDO� SH-riod.

“It’s hard once your

down by six goals every-one’s going to want to take out their frustration on someone but as captains you have to keep everyone together, keep everyone composed,” Pougnet said. “I was trying to make sure that everyone knew that on the bench and just to get over it.”

This is the Bears’ second loss in a week though they still hold a strong record af-ter beating the Pioneers on the road late Friday night. The next game is against the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs Friday at the Greeley Ice Haus.

After six meets in a row, McClanahan said the team is ready for a rest before hit-ting the pool again.

“They get a four day rest before heading to Mis-souri,” McClanahan said. The taper they get is a lot like the one they get before the conference meet next se-mester, and the coaches are hoping for some fast times in Columbia.”

Losing streak hits double-digitsSta! [email protected]

UNC football’s losing

streak reached double dig-

its Saturday as the Univer-

sity of Northern Colorado

(1-10, 0-7 Big Sky) was

defeated by No. 12 North-

ern Arizona 24-7 in Flag-

staff, Ariz.

The Bears were able to

move the ball offensively

but had very little to show

for it.

Their lone score came

in the fourth quarter on a

77-yard touchdown pass

from senior quarterback

Seth Lobato to senior wide

receiver Dimitri Stimphil

with 12:48 left in the game.

The score cut NAU’s

lead to 17-7 but the Lum-

berjacks (8-2, 6-1) would

respond with a 46-yard

Kyren Poe touchdown pass

to Jesse Brantley to seal

the victory.

ception return for a touch-

down by NAU’s Randy

Hale, giving the Lumber-

jacks a 10-0 lead with 5:31

left in the second quarter.

The Bears scored just

once on three trips inside

the NAU 20-yard line,

and three rushes for 45

only three passes but the

77-yard touchdown helped

him reach 106 yards for the

contest.

Though he didn’t score

a touchdown, star running

back Zach Bauman did his

part for NAU, tallying 144

yards on 23 carries. Poe

and Chase Cartwright ran

a two-quarterback system

for the Lumberjacks, total-

ing 200 yards and a touch-

down on 18-of-28 passing.

Like Spence, Lee’s goals

for the season are focused

on the team’s success.

“Basically this year I’m

just going to do what I can

to help the team win in

any way possible: scoring

points, rebounds. It doesn’t

really matter,” Lee said.

The season has started

well for the Bears with a

road upset and a strong

home opener but the team

is staying focused on the

future and working harder

to retain the winning streak

it has created.

“It’s worked out so

far. With the changes that

they’ve made, I think we

have a tougher team, both

mentally and physically,”

Hill said. “I think we’ve

got a team that’s more de-

fensive-oriented, which is

what we needed.

“But we still have guys

that can do some things

on the offensive end that

we haven’t had in the past.

It’s easy to say now that

we’re 2-0 and after a big

win like we had to start

the year that everything’s

worked out but there’s

still a long way before that

gets determined.”

Lee and Spence possess

the versatility mentioned by

Hill and their comfort level

with Davidson should help

the former Thunderbirds

adjust to their new roles as

Bears.

Through two games, it

appears that transition has

been smooth, but the test

will continue through the

rest of the season.
