The Chancellor Thomas More Prep-Marian High School Hays, KS February 2013 VOL. 43, Issue 3 Sweetheart Candidates Student Council Hosts On-Campus Lock-In For the first time in many years, TMP host- ed a school-wide lock in for its student body. The lock-in was held on January 6th and 7th. The night started off with two games of assas- sin, followed by pizza and pop. Once everyone was done eating, there was an obstacle course which was spread throughout all four floors of the school. After the obstacle course, a snow ball fight took place followed by a game of toe tag. Following toe tag were games of dodge ball, pick-up basketball, and a Nerf gun war. Through- out the night games of Catch Phrase and poker were played. Student Council President Ross Werth said he thought that the lock- in went very well. “Most everyone stayed up all night; ev- eryone seemed to have a good time. I know I did, and we were all exhausted for the rest of the week, so mission accomplished,” commented Werth. March for Life impacts students On January 25th 2013, the 40th annual March for Life was held in Washington D.C. March for Life is “The gathering of hundreds of thousands of people, to stand up against abortion.” said Mrs. Schuler. The March was held at a large grassy area called, The Mall, by the Smithsonian Museums. From there 500,000-600,000 people marched up to the front of the Supreme Court building. The Supreme Court building is where the Roe vs Wade law was passed 40 years ago. Lucas Stouffer ‘16 commented on the memo- rable parts of the March, “Well the worst was being in the cold, but when I saw all of these people coming to the same place I was at, to fight against abortion just like me, that was amazing.” Matea Gregg ‘15 said, “During the rally I re- ally liked hearing all the different speakers and how they were telling us to always support life no matter the circumstance. SAVE THE BABIES!” Altogether we should all stand up to end abor- tion, because every human disserves a chance at one thing, LIFE. Catholic Schools Week Inspires and Bonds Students, K-12 Bailey Rome ‘15 Cody Kreutzer ‘15 Much planning and preparation from the Leadership and Spiritual- ity class made the 2013 Catholic School’s (CSW) week a new and exciting week for the TMP-Marian student body. Led by the seniors in the class, Em- ily Leiker, Zach Schim- dtberger, Chelsea Zim- merman, Andie Marsell, Taylor Staab, and Adam Mack, students began thinking of creative dress days and the Bible Bee game at the beginning of the spring semester. While thinking of dress down days, the students made names that pertained to CSW. The week start- ed off with a home run when students were able to dress in their favorite team gear for “Jesus is a Team Player” day. Tuesday students were encouraged to dress as their favorite superhero for “Jesus is the Ultimate Superhero” day. Along with having the opportu- nity to dress down, stu- dents were treated to des- serts at lunch made by the faculty for student appre- ciation day. Wednesday was “Geek out for God” day, and students were sug- Candidates for Sweetheart King and Queen included: Garrett Stoecklein, Nick Dopita, Kade Megaffin, Carlos Duenes, Zach Schmidtberger, Maria Marcotte, Ashley Springer, Hannah Dreiling, Andie Marsell, and Chloe Zimmerman. Megaffin and Marsell were crowned King and Queen at the Sweetheart Dance held February 16. gested to dress up in their geekiest outfits for the teachers. On this day teachers also received gifts from STUCO. On Thursday stu- dents opted to wear for- mal, black tie attire for “Suit up for God” day. The Junior High students took time out of their day to write thank you notes to parents that help with lunch and other activities. For senior, Em- ily Leiker, CSW made a larger impact on her than previous years. “Catholic School’s Week was a much bigger deal this year than it has been in the past, and I felt like there was more celebra- tion this year because of Hays having a Kinder- garten through 12th grade Catholic School’s sys- tem,” said Leiker when asked how CSW impact- ed her this year. Other events in- cluded in the celebra- tion this year included the Bible Bee and mass at Immaculate Heart of Mary church. The Bible Bee was planned by the Leadership and Spiritual- ity class and included six rounds. All the high school and junior high students were mixed and placed in groups with sponsoring teachers. The group who won was placed with Mrs. Judy Schuler, the fresh- men and junior religion teacher. Friday mass with all the Catholic School students in Hays, was presided over by the Sa- lina Dioceses new bish- op, Bishop Edward J. Weisenburger, who began his Catholic education in Hays at St. Joseph’s El- ementary School. Bishop Weisenburger included in his homily, beginning his Catholic education in Hays and spoke with en- thusiasm about farming. He explained that when speaking to a farmer about farming the farmer told him, “Tending the soil and planting the seed is all the farmer has to do at the beginning and after that, the rest is up to God.” The remainder of the day was spent at TMP where the junior high and high school students had the opportunity to spend time with the elementary students. All enjoyed eat- ing lunch and playing Pictionary, getting a pre- view of the TMP Singers annual Dinner Show, and playing games with each other.

Twitter #getittogether

It seems that everyone has a Twit-ter account, from your best friend to even the Pope. If you have Twit-ter, you know that there is a Twitter account for everything. Some examples include @Pontifix for the serious Catholic stuff, “We must trust in the mighty power of God’s mercy. We are all sinners, but His grace transforms us and makes us new,” which was tweeted on Febru-ary 10th. @prepschool-probs includes the sassy, rich, and spoiled prepsters who make ev-eryone else feel poor and belittled. Or if you feel the need to read what your peers feel about your own school, you can follow @Tmp-Probz. I will let you decide whether to risk your reputation follow-ing this one. Why do many high schoolers tweet and post such inap-

propriate and dull-wit-ted things? One would think if you decide to post something, you would make it rela-tively appropriate since most of the world will have access to it. Another reason you should think be-fore you make a post on Facebook or tweet on Twitter, is in the future you may have employ-ers and/or colleges that will be interested in what you had to say a couple of years ago. They probably will not be very im-pressed reading about how you felt the need to degrade your friend publically because of something they did the previous day. The question I pose to the students who tweet or post is: Are you proud of what you tweet or post? Would you be ashamed if anyone else with the exception of your peers saw what you tweeted?

Jena Ernsting ‘14 - “I enjoyed the Oriental Chicken Salad with the original dress-ing. With the salad, I also devoured the chicken taco soup. It was a filling and delightful lunch.”

Cody Schmidtberger ‘14 - “I ordered the chicken fried steak with fries and a Dr. Pepper. It was a fantastic meal, and it will definitely be ordered again.”

Drew Kingsbury - ‘15 “I got the chicken wonton tacos which were very good, but the fork I had received had food on it still. If I had to rate my experience, it would be a 3.5 out of 5.”

Bailey Rome - ‘15 “I had the Fiesta Lime Chicken. It was very good, and I would recommend it to anyone.”

Lexie Wasinger - ‘15 “I had the Oriental Grilled Chicken Salad. It was very good and the restaurant handled my special dietary needs especially well.”

Restaurant Review: Applebee’s On a cold January day, the newspaper staff took a little trip to our local Apple-bee’s to check out the fare. Overall, it was a great experience. The service was quick and friendly, and we were able to enjoy our experience as well as get back to school within the time frame of 4th hour. The lunch specials provided a great variety of food at reasonable prices. The only better deal might be half-price apps. Here is what staff members had to say about their personal choices:

As the TMP boys and girls basketball teams’ season comes to a close we will take a look at their numerous accom-plishments. Their seasons start-ed with the annual Blue and White scrimmage, in which each team was di-vided in two and played against each other. It was a great way to introduce new players to competing in a game-like situation. Then, the real games began starting with the Hays City Shoot-out. Both teams suffered some tough losses, but the boys’team ended the tournament with one win! Soon after, the bulk of the regular season games be-gan. With a new coaching staff for the girls and only

4 returning seniors for the boys team this year was full of new learning expe-riences. The Chancel-lor staff had the privilege of catching up with some seniors from both teams. When we asked Jenna Schuckman ’13 about what she would miss the most about basketball she replied, “I’m defiantly go-ing to miss my teammates. I love them all so much, and it’s really going to be hard to say goodbye.” When we caught up with Kade Megaffin ‘13 we asked him what his fa-vorite memory from bas-ketball was. He answered, “Staying overnight at the Hillsboro Tournament my junior year. I had a great time with all of my team-mates.”

Monarchs Close Basketball Season Just AskQ: Why is Perry the Platy-pus blue when all other platypi are brown?

Dear Puzzled About Platy-puses,Firstly, the correct plural of platypus is not, as collo-quially used, platypi, but is simply platypus or platypus-es. Traditionally platypuses are brown because they are covered in a layer of dense fur, which is waterproof and similar to that of a mole. Moles have brown fur. Therefore platypuses have brown fur. Blue fur does not exist. Furthermore, the only reason Perry is blue is because the color is vibrant, and therefore easily noticed on television. Animators commonly use lively colors when creating characters so as to draw attention to their creations on screen.

Sincerely, Connie and Blyde

Q: Why do I have to speak English?

Dear Lazy,If you had the knowledge to write this question in Eng-lish, can’t you speak Eng-lish as well? You are lucky enough to have the privilege to learn a new language in the country it is spoken in, so you should take advan-tage of it. Think of how pop-ular you’ll be in your home country when you can speak this new language so well!

Sorry for the sarcasm,Connie and Blyde

Q: Why is early release on Thursdays instead of Fri-days?

Dear Touchy about Thurs-days,The new schedule devel-oped two years ago switched early release to Thursday af-ternoons because Mass was planned for Wednesdays and Fridays. As a Catholic school, it would be poor de-cision making to have half the school miss Mass for the week due to Professional Development. Thursday is also a good day because many sports and extracur-ricular groups have compe-titions on Thursday nights, so students participating in those activities won’t have to leave school early, since everyone would already be dismissed for the day.

Salutations,Connie and Blyde

You’re a bus driver. At the first stop 4 people get on. At the second stop 8 people on, at the third stop 2 peo-ple get off and, at the forth stop everyone got off. The question is what color are the bus drivers eyes?

Do you have a ques-tion you would like an-swered? Just drop it off in Mrs. Sramek’s room - 103, or drop it in the Just Ask box next to the television in the cafete-ria.

the chance to meet the girls from the track team who are all awesome!” “The coach is amazing, too really help-ing me with my decision to sign with them.” T The senior said of her upcoming 2013-2014 season at KSU, “I’ve got a really great support sys-tem behind me too!

February 14, 2013, to some people was just a regular day, but to others it was a day of love. From writing love letters and sending little gifts to giv-ing out valentines while you were in grade school, no matter whom you are, you have heard of and celebrated this holiday. The thing you probably do not know is the history behind this day full of love, and there are many tales of Saint Valentine and his day.

The origins of St. Valentine’s Day are vague to say the least. In fact, they are so vague that, in 1969, the Catholic Church dropped St. Valentine’s Day from the official, worldwide Roman calendar of Catholic feasts. (Those days are re-served for saints with more clear historical record. After all, the saints are real indi-viduals for us to imitate.) There are, however, some parishes that still observe the feast of St. Valentine. The origins of St. Valentine’s Day can be traced back to the ancient

Roman festival of Luperca-lia, which was celebrated on February 15. For about 800 years the Romans dedicated this day to the god Luper-cus. On Lupercalia, young men would go play a lot-tery, drawing the name of a young woman that would become his…special partner for the following year. Pope Gelasius I was angry with this custom to say the least. That is why he altered the day from draw-ing young women’s names to drawing the name of a saint. The person was then supposed to emulate that

saint for the following year. Instead of Lupercus, the pa-tron of this feast day became St. Valentine. However, it was still a day that Roman men used to seek out the af-fections of women, and they did this by giving out hand-written notes of admiration that included St. Valentine’s name; consequently, we now have the tradition of handing out Valentines to our loved ones on St. Valen-tine’s Day.
