crafts&convoCreative Club offers
place for students to bondBy Jessica Fecteau | Senior Reporter
Every Tuesday night in the back room of the Kaya Coffee and Tea Co., 1029 S. University Ave., solitary caffeinated students are replaced by crafting supplies and conversation.
Founder Jolie Masters said she started the Creative Club as a place for people with similar interests to make genuine friendships.
“I feel like when you go to college you’re expected to meet all these people, and I feel like the majority of meeting people is at parties,” the Kentwood junior said. “There really isn’t anything through Central that is in the creative nature like this for a club.”
Members unite and bond over the different projects they bring to work on during the, typically, three-hour meetings, she said.
“It’s very relaxed and laid back,” Masters said. “There are people that just come to hang out and do their homework, too.”

The Political Candidacy Policy ad-opted by Central Michigan University in 2008 has several groups on campus unhappy more than three years later and has sparked an ongoing lawsuit.
In December 2008, the CMU Board of Trustees adopted the policy, which requires employees seeking or holding political office to achieve administra-tive approval.
Under the policy, employees who seek or hold a political position in any federal, state, county or local office, part-time or full-time, paid or unpaid, are re-quired to present a statement from his or her supervisor and the vice president, provost or president of CMU.
The statement must attest that “ap-propriate arrangements have been made to ensure that their candidacy in no way will interfere with the full perfor-mance of their university work and that their candidacy will pose no conflict with professional standards or ethics.”
If the employee is found to violate this, then “an alternate relationship with the university must be arranged.”
“The Faculty Association believed the policy was too vague and subject to the whims of a future administration, which may selectively try to discour-age some candidacies while passing on others,” James Hill, professor of politi-cal science, said.

Michigan Senate Democrats propose free college tuition
Library spends $4 million yearly updating collectionBy Justin HicksStaff Reporter
The automated bookshelves in the Charles V. Park Library would stretch 33 miles if they were spread out side-by-side.
In order to keep the nearly 1.3-million-volume collection up to date, an average of $4 mil-lion is spent on new content each year, according to Dean of Libraries Thomas Moore.
“Our goal is to support the academic programs of the uni-
versity and all of the university,” Moore said. “We have money that comes to us from a general fund, and we’re buying through-out the year to do that.”
During the 2010-11 year, the li-brary had a budget of $4,285,525 for purchasing materials. This budget is spread out amongst purchases of books, journals, music and DVDs for the library’s continuously updated collec-tion.

Corrections
© Central Michigan Life 2012Volume 93, Number 49
Central Michigan Life has a long-standing commitment to fair and accurate reporting. It is our policy to correct factual errors. Please e-mail [email protected].
The FA asked to renegoti-ate the policy, but the ad-ministration denied.
CMU and the FA agreed to the political candidacy pol-icy during bargaining for the 2008-11 contract, Matt Serra, director of faculty employee relations, said.
“The administration re-fused to negotiate the poli-cy, arguing that we silently agreed to it when we ratified the old contract,” Hill said.
The administration then allowed the FA to bargain the procedures that would be used to implement the policy. A special faculty team was created to do so, chaired by Hill.
The team drafted a pro-cedure, which included criteria for administration to use. It stated decisions could not be made based on an employee’s political party, likelihood to win and their office sought or ap-pointed to.
It also included an ap-peals process, details of application deadlines and clarified between a conflict of interest and a conflict of commitment.
The administration and FA tentatively agreed on the procedure at the be-ginning of the fall 2010 se-mester, Serra said. But the procedure has still not been implemented, because two university unions have yet to approve.
OPPOSITIONIn Dec. 2009, about a year
after the board adopted the policy, CMU’s office profes-sionals union (UAW ) filed a lawsuit claiming the policy was unlawful.
The university filed its answer on Jan. 25, 2010, and both parties filed motions for summary disposition.
On Aug. 2, 2010, the Isa-bella County Trial Court granted the university’s motion for summary dis-position and dismissed the lawsuit filed by the UAW. The court sided with the university in that the policy is consistent with Michi-gan law. The UAW’s appeal to this decision was argued before the Michigan Court of Appeals on Nov. 2, 2011. Both parties are awaiting a decision.
UAW President Karen Bellingar and UAW Inter-national Service Repre-sentative Brian Bosak both declined comment, citing pending litigation.
The supervisory technical union has also not approved the procedure, Kevin Smart, director of employee rela-tions, said.
GARY PETERSGary Peters, a democrat
from Bloomfield Hills, was a professor of political sci-ence at CMU and a Grif-fin Endowed Chair and left CMU in 2008 after winning a primary election for the House of Representatives. The advocacy policy was passed shortly after.
Hill said Peters’ campaign did not hinder his ability to serve as a professor at CMU.
“Mr. Peters was an excel-lent chair who spent the same amount of effort as
every other chair who suc-ceeded him,” he said. “I am quite proud to say that a former Griffin chair went on to become a member of Congress, and unsuccessful efforts to try to force him to leave earlier than the pri-mary were short-sighted politically and strategical-ly.”
Peters serves the 9th congressional district, in-cluding Macomb County. He was reelected in 2010. After his district was elimi-nated, Peters announced he will run in the 14th district against Rep. Hansen Clarke, D-Detroit.
“U.S. Rep. Peters is proud of his work at CMU and thinks that everyone has a Constitutional right to run for public office,” Jared Smith, communications di-rector for Peters, said
The policy is difficult to swallow for some political science faculty, especially since public service is part of CMU’s vision statement.
“I find it curious that the board (of trustees) and the administration want us to be service-oriented but then adopt a policy that makes it more difficult for faculty to run for office than it does for them to make money in the private sec-tor,” Hill said. “It is particu-larly frustrating for those of us in political science who believe running for office is not just a right but a re-sponsibility of all citizens who care about our democ-racy and want to have a role in influencing our demo-cratic process.”

On Jan. 10, Ross and Sha-piro attended the school of broadcast and cinematic arts meeting, where depart-ment members expressed concerns about financial re-sources for future programs.
According to minutes from the meeting, Ross said the 2011 summer and fall se-mesters were difficult times for the president, provost and campus community. The discussion was opened “to try and end mistrust,” according to the minutes.
The College of Medicine was also a frequent topic of discussion at the meeting, and department members questioned whether the medical school would po-sition CMU for the future. The minutes mention that Shapiro asserted a medi-cal school increases CMU’s recruitment potential and would strengthen biology and chemistry classes with-in the university.
“In five years, what is the brand that attracts stu-dents?” Shapiro said, ac-cording to the minutes. “Public perception, demand and economy and will drive course offerings. Central cannot sit still.”
During the meeting, Ross indicated he wants faculty to be involved in CMU’s Strategic Plan and encour-aged faculty “to buy into (this) vision” he and Shapiro discussed.
Ross and Shapiro will continue to meet with oth-er academic departments throughout the semester.
ROSS |CONTINUED FROM 1
“We probably buy 10,000-12,000 books a year on the shelves and thou-sands more online,” Moore said. “We buy them every-day throughout the year, or just about.”
The library also has sub-scriptions to 1,400 print journals and 1,200 digital journals, as well as about 100,000 digital books and 24,000 digital journals in online packages.
In comparison, Michigan State University’s library has a budget of nearly $14 million for increasing its collection this fiscal year, said Colleen Hyslop, senior associate director of librar-ies at MSU. The University of Michigan spent $24.7 million last year for its li-brary, said Kathleen Folger, electronic resources officer for the U-M library.
With the constant shuf-fling of content into the library, there needs to be a removal process of out-dated material.
Subject librarians are responsible for retaining currency in the collection and weeding out the ma-terials that are no longer relevant. Some librarians are assigned to multiple academic departments in which they have back-ground.
Books and journals that are removed from the li-brary’s collection may be discarded or are more commonly sold at a spring book sale to make room for updated material.
“We have an arrange-ment where we want cer-
tain books for each area, and we have a profile on record with vendors that might hold access to mul-tiple publishers,” Moore said. “Then when some-thing gets published that meets our profile, it’s just sent to us.”
Such an arrangement is known as an approval plan, because subject librarians are responsible for decid-ing if the material is worth having once it’s received or if it needs to be sent back.
“We’re increasingly buy-ing online journals that are sometimes also in paper or only online,” Moore said. “The bulk are online, and there are many advantages to that, like being available 24-7, wherever you are, whenever.”
Since its renovation and reopening in 2002, the li-brary has had a decrease in people physically using it.
“Fewer people are com-ing in from when it opened but not by a huge amount,” Moore said. “Also, there has been a significant growth in use online. We get mil-
lions of hits on our site and journal collections a year.”
The library’s 360 com-puters and seating for more than 2,600 people make it an ideal studying environ-ment, despite the change in popularity from print to digital.
As students continue to shift their use of the library for more online content, computers and other tech-nology become more im-portant for students to gain access to information.
“I use the library three or four days a week,” said Flushing junior Andrea Con-quest. “I use it to study and haven’t ever checked out a
book. The space of the li-brary is useful, but the hard copies of books and articles are becoming less popular.”
While the majority of con-tent in the library can be seen online by iPad or com-puter, Moore said the library hasn’t gotten to providing material for eReaders, such as the Kindle and Nook.
“The library should make its books available on elec-tronics,” Conquest said. “Having a book available electronically would be much easier than tracking it down in the library and then carrying it around.”

The new competency re-quirements for freshmen in 2014 are part of a complete reconstruction of the Uni-versity Program.
The University Program currently requires students to take courses in four groups: Group I: Humani-ties, Group II: Natural Sci-ences, Group III: Social Sciences and Group IV: In-tegrative and Area Studies. Each group has two or three subgroups.
Students enrolled at Cen-tral Michigan University in 2014 will not have to fulfill the Group IV-A requirement for Integrative and Multidis-ciplinary Studies, and ac-cording to the description found on the general educa-tion website, these classes are “studies concerned with the examination of an issue from an integrative or multi-disciplinary viewpoint.”
George Ronan, Director of General Education, said the group was chosen for elimi-nation because of its vague description.
“The subgroup didn’t seem well-articulated with the rest of the University Program,” he said. “There was no specific content tied into it and wasn’t specific enough to keep.”
Ronan said the evaluation
of the University Program is long overdue.
“We’re re-evaluating every single course in the Univer-sity Program. Typically, a general education program should be evaluated ev-ery seven years, but ours hasn’t been touched since its development in the ’70s,” Ronan said.
Rockford junior Ashleigh Kline said the removal of the subgroup will allow stu-dents to focus more on their intended majors without wasting time taking classes that may not apply to re-quirements in their area of study.
“In most countries, stu-dents go directly into their major after high school. They are able to concentrate on learning as much as pos-sible in their area of interest in the shortest amount of time instead of taking class-es that don’t matter,” Kline said. “We should have that same opportunity.”
Catherine Kelley, a South Lyon sophomore, supports the removal of subgroup IV-A and said all subgroups should be removed.
“I think university pro-grams should have the re-quirements to take the stan-dard English, math, lab and speech class, but the sub-categories aren’t needed,”

The rise in popularity of me-dia-streaming services such as Netflix continue to spur video rental stores to close across the country, but Mount Pleas-ant may not be following that trend.
Isha Walter, store manager at Family Video, 317 N. Mission St., thinks the location is affect-ed, though “not in a major way.” Everything has its pros and cons, she said, as Family video caters to a different category of people than Netflix.
“So I know that college stu-dents are doing more of that (watching movies online) ver-
sus the families that come in here,” she said. “They’ve got their kids that can run around and look at video games while parents look at new releases.”
Illinois freshman Dan Bot-terman, like other students, said Netflix is “the way to go.” He recalled movie stores clos-ing as Netflix gained users.
Netflix is often on the short list of reasons why stores like Blockbuster are closing loca-tions across the east coast and through the Midwest, accord-ing to published reports.
Walter said there’s no current fear of Mount Pleasant’s Family Video closing. The local Block-buster store, 911 E. Pickard St., forwarded Central Michigan Life to corporate media rela-tions, which did not respond immediately to inquiries.
Services like Netflix took part of the blame when Mount Pleasant’s Videoland closed
three years ago, according to an April 2009 CM Life report. The store’s owner then told CM Life she was getting fewer custom-ers, who could have been partly drawn away by Netflix’s conve-nience.
“(With Netflix), you sit down in your house or in your dorm room and find a movie you want to watch,” Botterman said. “It takes 30 seconds.”
Botterman said most of his friends use Netflix.
Ashley Troyer reached a similar consensus among her friends. The St. Clair Shores senior often uses Netflix with her boyfriend, though on her own, she still gravitates toward Blockbuster.
“A lot of times I will use his Netflix account,” she said. “I like Netflix because it’s a really good deal, even though I don’t have one.”
It’s the different customer
demographics that may help Netflix from being as affected in ongoing movie news. Warner Bros. is at the head of a surge this month to influence movie purchases with a delay in mak-ing DVD rentals available.
The biggest chains expected to resist the push, according to Bloomberg, are Blockbuster and Redbox kiosks, while Netf-lix stands to have room to wait.
Of all of them, Walter said video rental stores like Family Video are more personable and still have a place.
“We’re the face in town. Over the past holiday season, we donated turkeys to needy fami-lies,” she said. “Netflix can’t say that they do that. Redbox can’t say that they do that. We still have to pay taxes in the com-munity. We’re still a very well-known face in the community.”

The Student Government Association is now accepting nominations for its general elec-tion.
SGA is looking for students to run for student body president, vice president and treasurer, along with filling open senator positions.
“Right now, we are in the un-official campaigning stage,” said Shelby Township senior and SGA President Vincent Cavataio.
The unofficial campaign stage will provide students with the opportunity to collect sig-natures for their petition forms. Students cannot campaign by advertising or using campaign
funds.“Currently six different tickets
have been submitted for vice president and president,” Cava-taio said.
At 5 p.m. Tuesday in the Charles V. Park Library Audito-rium, SGA will be hosting an election forum where the stu-dent body president and vice president will give a brief over-view of SGA positions and their responsibilities.
The student body general election campaign filing dead-line is Feb. 3, and official cam-paigning will begin Feb. 6.
“I am very excited to see so many potential candidates; last year there were only two,” Cava-taio said.
On Monday, elections for the
senate will be held, and new student body senators will be appointed.
“These elections are essen-tial to making sure students are more aware of their leaders and who they can contact when they want to make requests,” Cava-taio said.
SGA Parliamentarian and Alma junior Anna Dvorak has campaign experience from when she previously ran for of-fice in the spring of 2011 and served as campaign manager for Cavataio.
“Campaigning is time-con-suming, but students should shoot for getting more petition signatures than required to avoid running into problems later on,” Dvorak said.
She said during the official campaigning students will be using many methods to adver-tise, some choose not to spend any money campaigning and rely on spreading the word dur-ing meetings.
Students are given a $500 campaign limit and will be al-lowed to advertise and promote themselves using various tech-niques.
Eaton Rapids senior and SGA Executive Secretary Kelly Wright said campaigning requires a sig-nificant investment of time.
“Elections are important, be-cause the students’ voices can be heard and they can address issues,” Wright said.

Central Michigan Uni-versity students and Mount Pleasant residents came to-gether Wednesday night to see keynote speaker Lani Guinier in Warriner Hall’s Plachta Auditorium.
The event, hosted by the Multicultural Academic Student Services, featured Guinier speaking about race and class issues in America.
Guinier said she has known since she was a young girl she wanted to be a civil rights activist.
“I was 12 years old when I knew I wanted to be a civil
rights activist,” Guinier said. “I watched Constance Baker Motley and James Meredith on TV as Motley took Baker to the University of Mississippi, which was an all-white school at the time.”
Guinier was the first Af-rican American to be ap-pointed to a tenured pro-fessorship at Harvard Law School in 1998 and talked about the problem of race and class having more to do with financial issues than race issues.
Assistant Director of Mul-ticultural Student Services Keisha Janney said there was a strong interest from University President George Ross to have Guinier speak on campus.
“I did not expect the audi-torium to be filled,” Janney said. “It’s fascinating to see
so many students interested in her message.”
Janney said the university paid Guinier a $17,000 fee to come give the speech.
Guinier gave several ex-amples of these issues by relating it to what Martin Luther King Jr. stood for.
“I thought it was very in-teresting,” said Grand Ledge sophomore Sarah Robinson. “It was an informative, up-lifting speech with practical, specific examples.”
Like Guinier, King fought for equality among people of every race and Detroit senior Jerell Erves said he thought Guinier did a good job reiterating the need for unity.
“She did an excellent job,” Erves said. “She promoted unity among all people and MLK Jr. did that as well by demonstrating a lifestyle
that supported love.”Guinier said there has
been an economic down-ward spiral because of race, and more money is being spent by politicians on building prisons rather than higher education in-stitutions. She said there are more people incarcerated in the U.S. than any other country.
Marshall senior Justin Miller said he believes learn-ing from each other and co-operation will lead to social cohesion.
“She brought up the dif-ference between race and class and how because they’re so interchangeable they create each other,” Miller said.
Cole said she believes King is still relevant today because his dream isn’t yet accomplished.

“There is still poverty and discrimination that exists,” Cole said. “He (King) would be honored, but not ful-
filled, because there is still room to grow.”

Bob Martin retired on Dec. 31 after more than 10 years as Associate Vice Provost in Fac-ulty Personnel Services.
A search committee has been formed to find his re-placement, chaired by College of Science and Technology Dean Ian Davison.
The position will be re-named executive director of faculty personnel services, said Director of Public Rela-tions Steve Smith.
Martin was a member of the university bargaining team for the Faculty Association’s 2011-2014 contract dispute, which lasted about seven months.
He was hired on Sept. 28, 2001 and submitted his retire-ment letter on June 30, 2011, Smith said.
June 30 was the same day the previous FA contract expired.
“He had been looking for-ward to retiring from Central Michigan University and his career for several months,” said Ann Miller, director of faculty employment and com-pensation for FPS.
Matt Serra, director of fac-
ulty employee relations, and Ray Christie, vice provost of academic administration, were on the team alongside Martin.
Christie said he will miss Martin and his contributions terribly.
“Bob Martin served the uni-versity in a very challenging position and did so for more than a decade,” Christie said. “Bob’s performance was ex-emplary. He was always driv-en to protect the interests of the university as a whole, and he did so while being fair to all concerned.”
Serra said he was fortunate to have worked closely with Martin for the past four-and-a-half years.
“He is a fantastic mentor, a great leader, an expert ne-gotiator, a brilliant employee relations mind and a friend,” Serra said. “While employed at CMU, he always kept the university’s best interests in mind in everything he was in-volved in and always operated with complete integrity.”
Martin could not be reached by press time.

When I was 17 years old, I would have never thought I would meet someone who I would fall in love with that would forever change my life.
I was a junior in high school when I met the guy I would go on to date for three-and-a-half years. The story of how we met is simple and short: we met through my cousin, because they’re best friends.
Sure, I thought this guy was nice and cute, but I wasn’t interested in anything beyond that. I was content hanging out with my girlfriends and doing stuff like shopping and having sleepovers. To have a boyfriend, a long-term serious one at that, just wasn’t on my list at the time.
That all changed when this guy became a sophomore, and we were at the same school together. I didn’t think much of it at the time, be-cause there were several other new sophomores coming to the school, so I thought, what was one more?
We started dating not too long after school began, and the relation-ship, like any other at the beginning, was new, fun and thrilling. I didn’t think anything could go wrong. But as we got older and grew up, we also grew apart and changed. We fought a lot more, and it seemed like the relationship was doing more harm than good to both of us.
It was around early last year that our relationship of nearly three-and a-half-years ended for good. I was upset and it felt like my heart had literally been broken. I couldn’t wrap my mind around how things could go from being so great to simply ending. I didn’t understand how someone could just leave a relation-ship that long without any feasible explanation.
Nearly a year later, I’ve gained a new perspective. While he and I may not have worked out forever like either of us had planned, I don’t have regrets about our relationship or feel like I’ve given up hope that I can find love again. I know it will happen.
I am sure of that by looking at the relationships of my family members. My brother was engaged once before, but eventually broke it off, and my sister was married once before and got a divorce.
The reason I look to these exam-ples is because even though unfortu-nate things happened to them, they ended up getting a second chance at love with someone else. My brother is now happily engaged again, and my sister happily remarried.
It is because of them that I believe in second chances. Break-ups are hard, but many times saying good-bye to one relationship opens the door for another, better one.
[YOUR VOICE]
On Wednesday, Gov. Rick Snyder gave his second State of the State ad-dress—as usual, the Governor painted a sunshiny picture, while the Demo-cratic response painted a gloomy pic-ture, and pundits criticized the speech for lacking details.
Ultimately, it is hard to go into much detail in a short speech, and the State of the State is not supposed to be a speech of details.
That being said, Snyder had some missed opportunities. By not going into the details of the Emergency Financial Manager law, he failed to address false criticisms that it is based in racism or union-busting, and while the new law is flawed, the flaw is in its implementation, not its purpose.
Details on K-12 and higher educa-tion funding would have been nice to include, even if it was just a general outline. On the other hand, Snyder nailed the issue on the head when he said we need to make sure people are “not just college ready but career-ready.”
Snyder also summarized what his administration has accomplished: overseeing the state during a 1.9 percent drop in unemployment (larger than the national average), pass-ing a budget on time, repealing the Michigan Business Tax and reforming government transparency.
He also stressed that more work still has to be done. The road funding formula is 61 years old, and he wants to change that, saying, “The state can-not afford to neglect the health of our infrastructure.”
Snyder addressed two transporta-tion issues with southeast Michigan. The first was the need for a regional public transit system, something long overdue in Metro-Detroit.
The second issue is a bit more con-troversial: the Detroit River Interna-tional Crossing—a second bridge from Detroit to Windsor. Legislation for the bridge has failed to make progress in the Senate, and the project has stalled for the moment. Snyder encouraged the legislature to move forward with the project, citing “it’s not a bridge issue; it’s a jobs issue,” and special interests should not get in the way.
While catchy, the line he used was flawed, since it is more than just a jobs issue. That being said, we can go forward with this project without taxpayer dollars, and it will both bring revenue into the state as well as ease congestion at the border crossing, so the time has come for the legislature to move forward with the project.
The last main point was govern-ment’s “role is not to create jobs, but to create an environment that creates job creation.” This is an area his adminis-tration has had success in, but more work can be done, especially eliminat-ing pointless regulations, several of which he highlighted.
Overall, the speech was a good one, even if it was lacking in a couple key ar-eas; Snyder did a good job of highlight-ing accomplishments as well as goals for the coming year, and hopefully the state can continue its path to recovery.
Why I still believe in love
Anamaria Dickerson Staff Reporter
It seems unlikely bills as broadly written and surface-level directed as the Stop Online Pi-racy Act and Protect IP Act would actually curb the machinations of those on the razor’s edge of in-formation technology and would instead only get in the way of regular, law-abiding users.
The bill directed at protecting a small percentage of copyright holders’ profits has the potential to effectively destroy the way the most vibrant and productive parts of the Internet operate.
In a bleak economic climate, it makes very little sense to clip the wings of one of the few aspects of U.S. business that shows contin-ued exponential growth.
It may sound melodramatic, but the Internet is the defining hallmark of human engineer-ing and ingenuity. Nothing of this magnitude and scope has happened to human culture ever before, and it is still expanding.
The Internet has been techno-logical, commercial and creative marvels since their advent, but the events of the past year, par-ticularly the Arab Spring, have demonstrated the social and political importance of online interaction.
We are, more than ever before, an interconnected species.
Tampering with the rules of the Internet while we are only beginning to get a glimpse of its
true potential is a backward and uninformed idea that reeks of corporate influence.
Media corporations have put up serious fights when frightened by new technology before. But the VCR did not destroy the movie industry, cassettes and compact discs came without making radio obsolete, and there’s no reason to think YouTube and Tumblr will spell the end of popular culture.
Rather than imposing short-sighted rules to maintain increas-ingly irrelevant business models, Congress should celebrate the efforts of those who embrace the new potential for economic suc-cess of online interactions.
They need only look to the ex-ample of popular comedian Louis C.K., who recently released an exclusive stand-up performance on his website with absolutely no
protection against piracy for the price of $5.
By trusting consumers and offering them an easy and afford-able way to access his product — completely unlike the convoluted and backwards rights-protection processes big media imposes on its customers to retain a profit margin — he made hundreds of thousands of dollars with abso-lutely no middleman.
C.K.’s success and many others like it show that in the future busi-ness will be done and money will be made differently in the future, but they will still happen.
Shackling the Internet’s growth in the U.S. to perennially stub-born and selfish groups like the MPAA and RIAA could be one of the worst decisions Congress ever makes.
Comments in response to “The great debate: Are leggings pants?”
Amanda Jaczkowski, WednesdayLeggings are NOT pants. I don’t
like them in general, but if you put them under a super-long shirt or a skirt, then I’m down with you wear-ing them. I just really have no desire to see your butt (sorry guys). Girls, get some respect, and leave some-thing to the imagination.
chipawhat, WednesdayTHEY ARE NOT PANTS! My big-
gest pet peeve is when girls try to pull them off as they are. My rule of thumb is I do not wear leggings unless my butt is covered. The worst part is that half of the girls who wear them do not realize that unless they are a more expensive or just a better-made pair...THEY ARE SEE-THROUGH!!
I_Was_A_Teenage_McCarthyist, Wednesday
I’m so glad that this got a full page.It’s not like the federal government
is attempting to censor the internet on a massive scale (simultaneously breaking basic internet security to serve the interests of groups like the MPAA), while numerous websites have blacked themselves out in protest for the day.
Comments in response to “Ball State blows out men’s basketball at Mc-Guirk Arena”
CE, WednesdayCan we please get a two-for-one
sale on EZ and Enos?! These are hor-rible, horrible hires!
GS, WednesdayWas at the game tonight. Very
poor fundamentals all game for the Chips. McBroom couldn’t keep his man in front of him, big guys aren’t boxing out and absolutely terrible shot selection. Whatever their base offense is, they need to change it, because passing the ball around the perimeter hoping that someone gets open will not work. Hopefully, the coaches can recognize the success they have when they get the big guys involved. Until they do, this team will keep losing.
CMU Alum ‘78, ThursdayBasketball is a simple game. If you
do not make baskets, you do not win. I know that seems terribly un-derstated and terribly obvious, but again...it’s a simple game. If you stick to the basics (like Parfitt used to drill into the guys when he was coach), and practice on your weaknesses, practice, practice, practice those free throws, play defense with your feet not your hands, you will win games.
Comments in response to “Two de-partments endorse Academic Senate vote of no confidence against Ross, Shapiro”
Chip, WednesdayWho cares? As if the faculty union
stooges aren’t going to be against the
administration, specifically the pres-ident. The president is a Democrat. He was hired by the Board of Trust-ees, of which a majority are Demo-crats appointed by then-Democrat Governor Jennifer Granholm. The faculty union membership is mostly Democratic. They are complaining about one of their own. If they think it’s bad now, wait until the majority of the Board of Trustees are tea party Republicans appointed by Republi-can Governor Rick Snyder.
Creative_destruction, WednesdayDoes anyone really care what the
opinions of these very, very soft sci-ence programs are ? I certainly don’t.
912, WednesdayUnanimous or near-unanimous
votes in two departments that have acted on this, huh? And with many more departments to follow, I’m sure. So much for Sarah Opperman’s claim that it was just a few disgrun-tled faculty members behind these no-confidence votes.
destruction2, ThursdayThe only thing they are angry
about is the Med school and that they have to share the University revenue pie with them. Translation: They will not get the raises they want. Yeah right, it is always about the students. B.S!

Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder promised no further cuts to ed-ucation in this year’s budget af-ter his second State of the State address Wednesday night.
Snyder has come under fire for signing funding cuts for the state’s public universities and re-ducing aid for K-12 schools over the past year.
“Our intention is, from where we were last year, is hopefully invest more in education,” Sny-der said in an interview with the Detroit Free Press.
Kathy Wilbur, vice president for development and external relations for Central Michigan University, said this is welcome news following years of funding cuts for public universities.
“Obviously, we’re thrilled. We’re very pleased by what the governor promised,” Wilbur said. “We’ve had to take some very significant cuts to the uni-versities in the past.”
Funding for universities was cut 15 percent last year and has been slashed by 65 percent over the past decade.
“Unfortunately, most schools look at tuition increases to offset cuts to funding,” Wilbur said.
Tuition was increased by $12 per credit hour, or 3.47 percent, this academic year for CMU students, and other universities around the state increased their tuition rates
by up to seven percent.During his address, Snyder
called on lawmakers to usher in an “era of innovation” for Michi-gan.
He also noted his administra-tion ended the Michigan Busi-ness Tax, which he called “just plain dumb,” prompting loud cheers from the Republican lawmakers in attendance.
Snyder began the speech by touting the accomplishments his administration achieved in 2011, chief among them the un-employment rate falling to its lowest level in three years, at 9.3 percent.
Snyder expressed disappoint-ment that obesity rate remained at more than 30 percent and announced a new program de-signed to fight childhood obe-sity, called Pure Michigan Fit.
Snyder said more progress is needed to be made on college readiness for students. Less than 20 percent of Michigan students are college ready, he said.
“We need to be 100 percent college and career ready for our students,” Snyder said.
Snyder also made bringing down crime levels around the state, and specifically in Detroit, Flint, Saginaw and Pontiac, a priority for 2012. He announced in March he will speak on crime in the state and ways to bring down the crime rate.
He renewed his calls for a government-owned bridge to Canada and a rapid transit sys-
tem in Detroit to create jobs for the state.
He again called on Congress to create a new health insurance exchange in order to comply with the federal Affordable Care Act, passed in 2010, drawing cheers mainly from the Demo-cratic caucus.
The governor praised the state’s budget surplus and called on the federal government to look to Michigan as an example of how to deal with deficits. He also defended his controversial appointments of emergency fi-nancial managers to cities and school districts statewide.
Occupy protesters chant-ing “Recall Rick!” outside the chamber were heard during the speech.
Political science professor James Hill said in an email the speech was predictable and lacked specifics, which is typi-cal for an election year. All of the House of Representatives is up for re-election this year.
“There were no surprises or bold moves,” Hill said. “He gave more details about outhouse regulations and his weight loss progress than he did about the key issues facing the state in-cluding the Detroit financial cri-sis and the controversial revised Emergency Financial Manager Law. (The speech was) neither inspiring nor particularly infor-mative.”

The U.S. Department of Jus-tice has changed the definition of “forcible rape” to include men and the type of sexual assault.
The Federal Bureau of Inves-tigation’s Uniform Crime Re-port spells out the changes, al-lowing more people to be able to report rape as a crime.
Before, the FBI defined rape as the carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will.
The new definition does not reference males or females and states; “Penetration, no matter how slight, of the vagi-na or anus with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another per-son, without the consent of the victim.”
Mount Pleasant Police De-partment Public Information
Officer Jeff Browne said he typ-ically does not see men report-ing sexual assault.
“From my experience, most men don’t report because of embarrassment,” he said. “In the 14 years I’ve been an of-ficer, I’ve never taken a sexual assault case with a man.”
Director of Sexual Aggres-sion Services Stephen Thomp-son said the new definition will have a major effect in those states that do not classify male assault as a sex crime.
The number of victims could increase, he said, because the broader definition will in-crease the number of people who will be identified as sex crime survivors or victims.
“Michigan has had model laws since 1975,” Thompson said. “These changes bring fed-eral law and definitions more in-line with Michigan. The main difference now is Michi-
gan recognizes contact with breast, genital, buttock area as a sex crime, (but) the feds still only recognize penetration.”
The best way victims and survivors come forward is when they feel people will lis-ten and believe them, Thomp-son said.
If the perception by survi-vors is that people will listen, then yes, more will come for-ward, he said.
Regardless of definitions, the public needs to understand the realities of sexual aggres-sion from a knowledge base of fact and not operate from an attitudinal base formulated by myths, Thompson said.
“Education is the key,” Browne said. “Victims blame themselves, and more people need to try and understand their stories.”
FBI definition of rape changed, now includes males as victims

A lack of reporting could be to blame for the de-creased number of burglar-ies in residence halls and apartments.
According to the campus safety report from Septem-ber, campus burglaries have gone from 34 in 2008 to 16 in 2011.
When something is stolen from a residence hall, the protocol for the hall staff is to encourage the party in-volved to file a report.
“We surrender to the po-lice and let them handle it,” James Span Jr., Campbell residence hall director said.
Span said burglary is something he rarely sees in his residence hall. He said the security for residence halls is good, with doors both closing and locking automatically.
Alisha Millis, property manager of Jamestown Apartments, said she has not had any major concerns with burglary.
“A lot of them don’t report it,” Millis said.
Samantha Houser, apart-ment supervisor for Ke-wadin Apartments, agreed there have been few report-ed instances of burglaries.
A GPS was stolen from Kewadin Apartments, but other than that incident, the complex has been very quiet, Houser said.
The security process when an item is stolen from an apartment is very similar to the policy at residence halls.
“After the report is made, all we can do is turn it over to the police,” Houser said.
Central Michigan Uni-versity Chief of Police Bill Yeagley said after the report is filed, a number of things happen.
“Once we’re aware of the incident, we go to the scene, take pictures and try to predict a time frame,” Yeagley said.
When such a crime hap-pens in the residence halls, surveillance tapes are searched once the time
frame is narrowed down. In these tapes, the police look for any suspicious activity that may lead them to the perpetrator, Yeagley said.
He said the police are close with the pawn shop in Mount Pleasant, so when something is stolen, they can go and search for that specific item. Stolen items have been located there a couple of times, Yeagley said.
To prevent such burglar-ies from happening, sev-eral precautions are taken. Every incoming freshman is required to sit through a presentation showing a set of scenarios that can hap-pen if their doors are left ajar and expensive items are left exposed.
Through this orientation event, residents are encour-aged to mark belongings, leave nothing valuable in plain sight and always lock doors when the room is va-cant, Yeagley said.
univers ity@cm-l ife.com
Decrease in burglaries at campus residence halls, apartment complexes
she said. “We really should be focusing on the require-ments for our degrees in-stead of wasting money on classes we don’t need. Es-pecially IV-A classes — I’ve never personally learned a single useful thing from a class in that category, nor have I heard of someone who has.”
Removal of the subgroup brings hope that the Uni-versity Program will be com-pleted more efficiently by students.
“We’re all about efficiency and effectiveness,” Ronan said. “That’s why we cut group IV-A. Without it, the University Program is more continuous with courses
students have to take else-where in their education and students can hopefully merge credits.”

It was a struggle from start to fin-ish for the Central Michigan women’s basketball team as it lost in Ypsilanti to Eastern Michigan Thursday night 73-60.
The Eagles (12-6, 4-1 MAC) got out to a quick 10-0 lead to start the game and did not let up, going up 20 points in the first half. Both teams came into the game 3-1 in the MAC fight for sole possession of first place.
Freshman forward Jas’Mine Bracey had 10 points for CMU (11-8, 3-2) in the first half, but EMU senior guard Tavelyn James outdid her with 19 at halftime.
“(EMU) was being really aggres-sive with us,” assistant coach Heather Oesterle said. “We’ve got to be more intense, physical, and we have to match them.”
The Chippewas couldn’t match the Eagles first-half productivity in the second half, but they did step up their intensity.
CMU cut a 20-point deficit down to seven points with 6:34 to go and held James to zero points in the second half.
“It was too big of a hole to get out of against a team like this,” CMU head coach Sue Guevara said. “Our youth showed itself quite a bit today.”
Guevara started ju-nior guard Jalisa Olive at the point over sophomore guard Kylie Welch. At half-time, the Chippewas had 16 turnovers, and Guevara wanted a change. In the second half, they had just eight turn-overs with Welch running the offense.
“(Welch) played smart,” Guevara said. “I thought (Olive) could come in and give us that quickness defensively, and it’s not that she didn’t, but our of-fense wasn’t going.”
Bracey finished the game with a team-high 16 points, while Johnson contributed with 15 points, and fresh-man guard Jessica Green had 12 points.
CMU will be looking to shake off this loss and rebound at 2 p.m. Sunday at Kent State.
“Our shooters have to come out, and our shooters have to score,” Guevara said. “Between DiGuilio, (Kerby) Tamm and LaDuke, we’ve got to get some scoring out of them.”

MEN’S BASKETBALL: Immaturity plagues team, 8
w Video highlights from Wednesday nights men’s basketball game against Ball State
Senior Samantha Piotrowski lay on the mat in dis-belief after landing awkwardly on her arm during a practice series of flips.
“When I heard the pop, I felt uncertainty,” Piotrowski said.
She instantly erupted in tears, and soon the rest of her team surrounded her sobbing. Piotrowski ruptured her ulnar collateral ligament, and just like that, the Central Michigan gymnastics senior captain’s career was over.
“It was life-changing when I found out it was career-ending,” Piotrowski said. “After doing gymnastics for 18 years — it was devastating.”
All her teammates could do was wipe away their tears, circle up and pray as she left practice.
But Piotrowski is not feeling bad for herself, leaving the program and moving on with her life.
She’s doing the one thing an injured captain can do: Be another coach and a leader.
Samantha Piotrowski looks to lead after career-ending injury
Flipping roles“Well I definitely think that as a
senior, that the experience that I have, even the juniors and sopho-mores lack,” Piotrowski said. “As a senior I think it’s my job to lead by example.”
The ulnar collateral ligament in-jury in her elbow happened Dec. 30, nine days before the team’s first meet. She still went to that first meet; but as an inspirational leader instead of a performer.
The Naperville, Ill., native will continue to lead the team as captain even with-out compet-ing. One of her goals as leader will be keeping the team calm in pressure-filled atmospheres.
“Especially when there is a com-petition setting where there is pres-sure,” Piotrowski said. ”Keeping
your head on straight, keep poised and do things that you practice in the gym everyday.”
Head coach Jerry Reighard ex-pects Piotrowski to lead, too.
“Her role obviously has changed, but
she is still the captain of the
team,” Reighard said. “The under-
classmen have looked to her over the last three months, and that’s not going to change. They still need to depend on her to be there to inspire them,
and that’s a role that she will make.”
She plans to be another coach for the team.

The Central Michigan wrestling team will begin a difficult four-game stretch this weekend against Mid-American Conference foe Northern Illinois and No. 10 Michigan.
“I think it’s a great opportunity for our guys,” Chippewas coach Tom Borrelli said. “Move up in the rank-ings, make a name for themselves and get a victory against a quality opponent.”
No. 19 CMU will host the Huskies Friday at 7:30 p.m. before traveling to Ann Arbor to wrestle the Wolverines 2 p.m. Sunday.
InterMat has seven Michigan wrestlers placed in the top-20 in their respective weight division. Un-defeated NIU wrestler Brad Dieck-haus dropped out of the rankings, because he did not participate in the Huskies last duel.
In the next 3-of-4 CMU matches, the opponents are ranked in the NWCA/USA Today Coaches Team Poll. The Chippewas believe they are up for the challenge.
“Just take it one match at a time, battle, keep it close, and beat them at the end,” CMU wrestler Joey Kiel-basa said. “That’s what you got to do against those really good guys.”

Last Friday, the Central Michigan men’s basketball team was in first place in the Mid-American Confer-ence West division and preparing to face 1-13 Northern Illinois before re-turning home.
A week later, the Chippewas (7-10, 2-2 in MAC) are falling fast, currently in fourth place and heading to Kalam-azoo to face rival Western Michigan (8-10, 2-2) with hope to stop a two-game losing streak 2 p.m. Saturday.
CMU head coach Ernie Zeigler said the Chippewas have to shoot better, among other things.
“We have to trust each other,” he said. “The issue for us is getting off to a good start defensively.”
The Broncos lost 62-59 in over-time against rival Eastern Michigan Wednesday night.
BALL STATE BEATS DOWN CMUTyrae Robinson scored 15 first-half
points and Tyler Koch scored nine second-half points, both had career-highs in the Ball State men’s basketball team’s 73-52 victory against Central Michigan Wednesday night at Mc-Guirk Arena in front of 1,541 fans.
“Our guys did a great job of recog-nizing who had the hot hand,” BSU head coach Billy Taylor said.
Robinson and Koch entered the game as the team’s fourth and sixth-leading scorers respectively. The Chippewas limited the touches for the Eagles leading scorer Jarrod Jones,
who finished with four points.The focus on Jones forced the Car-
dinals to look elsewhere.“Tyler was able to make shots for
us,” Taylor said. “Tyrae Robinson was able to make shots, so fortunately we had some guys step up and make shots since Jarrod didn’t get his nor-mal touches.”
Robinson outscored CMU 15-12 with 6:30 remaining in the first half.
Ball State made it difficult for the Chippewas leading scorer. It wasn’t until 4:18 remaining in the half before guard Trey Zeigler scored.
He finished with six points on a lackluster 3-of-12 shooting, below his team-leading 16.4 points per game.
“He struggled tonight, amongst everyone on our team,” Ernie Zeigler said about Trey. “He just has to be able to continue to work and put himself in position to be more efficient himself as well. He, along with his teammates, have a lot of work to do.”
With 11:33 remaining in the half, it was 15-11. CMU never got closer, go-ing into the locker room trailing 38-22, just in time for Koch to heat up.
Taylor felt like his team was ‘very unselfish.’ It was opposite for Ernie.
“Everybody started trying to do it themselves, versus moving the ball, cutting hard and playing off each oth-er as we had been doing previously,” Ernie said.
CMU players were unavailable for comment during the post-game press conference.

CMU No. 1 Ben Ben-nett and No. 2 Dieckhaus 184-pound matchup is in jeopardy as a result of Diekhaus having a foot in-jury.
“(Diekhaus) is close to 100 percent, but the coaches may decide to hold him back until after this weekend,” Huskies media relations member Michael Benson said via email.
It would be the first meet-ing between the wrestlers as a result of Bennett moving up a weight class this season.
CMU freshman Joey Kiel-basa will wrestle Matt Smith of NIU who’s third in the MAC and No. 9 Eric Grajales of Michigan. A heavy sleight for one day of rest in between.
Kielbasa emerged from the shadows of fellow fresh-man Mike Ottinger in CMU last duel against Eastern Michigan. He clinched an 11-3 decision that resulted in the last lead change of the duel.
“Very few true freshmen start, so for him to be start-ing as a true freshman, both him and Mike Ottinger is pretty unique,” Borrelli said. “For them to be com-peting on the level they’re competing on as a true freshman is really good.”
Kielbasa is becoming more acclimated to the col-lege game.
“(The season) started off really slow. I’m start-ing to get into it a little bit.
Starting to believe in my-self a little bit,” Kielbasa said. “Hopefully my season starts going off like my last match.”
TWO CHIPPEWAS WERE NEARLY WOLVERINES
Kielbasa and Bennett had thoughts of donning the maize and blue uniform before choosing the Chip-pewas.
But they both felt more comfortable with the coaches at CMU.
Kielbasa was closer to choosing Michigan. He got acquainted with the Wol-verines coaching staff.
“I decided (Central Mich-igan) was a better place for me. Better coaches here,” he said. “I’m excited to wrestle Michigan.”
gym, where now I don’t have to focus on myself. I can put all my energy toward them,” Piotrowski said. “I can lead by motivating them and speaking to them. My part on the team isn’t gone, it’s just very different.”
It is easy to learn from someone that has had so much success.
Piotrowski has been on back-to-back Mid-American Conference champion teams
and led them on bars.Looking back, her favorite
memory is when CMU host-ed the MAC championships last year.
“Last year, we hosted MAC championships, and it was honestly the best energy and home crowd,” Piotrowski said. “And we absolutely blew the competition out of the water; the next team was al-most a whole point behind us.”
She said it was a great send-off for the seniors.
“To do that in front of your home crowd; it was a great feeling,” Piotrowski said. “For
our seniors, as their final send-off. It was the best feel-ing. It was really fun.”
Piotrowski certainly won’t let her injury stop her from achieving the next goals she has in life.
“Well, I’d like to work in some sort of broadcasting area, focusing on sports. I’d like to work with Col-lege Gameday, be the Erin Andrews (ESPN sideline re-porter) type deal,” Piotrowski said. “But first, I’m going to try and be a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader.”
The Central Michigan men’s basketball team is young.
It can’t be changed this season. Center Andre Coimbra is the only senior starter, and it is only his second year on the team. There hasn’t been a consistent leader on the team, both on and off the court.
Sophomore guard Trey Zeigler should be the favorite as the team leader. He was the most highly recruited and has the ability to lead the team through his play.
He has been benched twice for violating team rules, despite scoring a team-high 16.4 points per game.
Sophomore guard Derek Jackson has played well throughout the season but found himself on the wrong side of the out-of-bounds line during the start of Wednesday’s 73-52 loss against Ball State at McGuirk Arena.
He also violated team rules.“We’re so immature, our best
and most talented players are probably our most immature players,” head coach Ernie Zeigler said following the loss. “We just got to continue to nur-

ture them and hopefully keep them on a path. When they are focused and have a sense of purpose, there is a lot of talent there, but it’s more than just talent.”
Whether it’s on or off the court, the positive consistency hasn’t been there. Off the court issues have forced different starting lineups throughout the season, and inconsistency from different players has shown.
Trey entered Wednesday’s loss shooting 55.1 percent from the free-throw line. He de-creased that percent, shooting 0-for-3. He also shot 3-of-12 from the field.
Junior forward Olivier Mbaigoto scored a career-high 23 points against UC-Irvine on Nov. 25, 2011. He hasn’t done it consistently, only scoring double-digits four times in 17 games.
“Right now, there isn’t that type of leadership within that group because of the youth and some of the freshness of just being a part of the program or being Division I,” Ernie said. “Some guys aren’t quite ready to do it, and the guys that need to do it aren’t mature enough to do it yet.”
