Some University experts question whether a res-olution brought to an Undergraduate Student Government meeting Monday threatens student media’s first amendment rights.

USG introduced a resolution, after previously hearing student concerns about The BG News, requesting administrative action.

The resolution, which was tabled, calls for public election of an editor, a system of checks and balances and for the administration to take action if published news is negative to student groups or the University as a whole.

“[The fact that] USG is advocating that media be a public relations arm for the University and support values that would make everyone feel good ... is exactly the reason why we have a free press,” said Mike Horning, assistant profes-sor in the department of Journalism and Public Relations.

The concer ns prompted USG members Nadia Oehler and Aeden Timbrook to write the resolution.

Though senators had mixed feelings— post-poning a vote— USG President Brian Kochheiser said he supports some sort of resolution being passed.

“When students come and voice concerns, it’s our duty to represent them,” he said.

Oehler said she is looking for more transpar-ency because some students don’t know how the election process is run.

The public election of an editor is a form of prior restraint, which may cause an editor to be too afraid to report anything negative or contro-versial because it might upset the administration or student government, Horning said.

Looking back at the draft, Timbrook said the public election was not feasible.

“What we’re suggesting is an open forum of sorts or a way of making the process of electing the editor-in-chief more open to the students,” Oehler said. “That way they trust the system.”

Currently, the Board of Student Publications oversees The BG News’ operation. The board is comprised of two USG members, two undergrad-uate students, four faculty members, one journal-ism department faculty member, two members of the professional press and one member of Graduate Student Senate, said Kelly Taylor, chair of the board.

Student government seeks to address student concerns about The BG News

Donation options available during move-outStudents can give food, clothing, furniture to charities during final week of class

By Amber PetkosekSocial Media Editor

When students move out of their residence halls and off campus apartments, instead of throwing out the things they don’t want, they can choose to give some of their things to charity.

This year and for the past 12 years, students could donate clothes, non-perishable foods and other items to charities when they moved out of their residence halls and off-cam-pus apartments.

The amount of things col-lected from the students and fac-ulty is enough to provide items to more than three dozen charities, Sustainability Coordinator for the University Nick Hennessy said.

The program When You Move

Out, Don’t Throw It Out was avail-able beginning Monday and will run through finals week. There are drop off boxes located in each residence hall, each Greek unit, Outtakes loca-tions and in the Union.

Hennessy said although the pro-gram is aimed primarily at students living in the residence halls, it is also available for students who live off campus and faculty.

Students and staff can drop off nonperishable food items, clothing, electronics, kitchen supplies, school supplies, laundry detergent, clean-ing supplies and more.

“Laundry detergent would be a huge thing. A lot of people will just throw it away if there’s just a little bit of laundry detergent left, whereas the shelters and the chari-ties we work with that’s the number

one thing on most of their lists,” Hennessy said. “They will literally come and look at that first — that is the most expensive, the most impor-tant thing to be able to provide to their clientele that are in need.”

The WYMO program is not for students to get rid of their trash, but to donate to the various charities, Hennessy said. Other than trash some of the only things unable to be used is perishable food.

Some of the charities the items go to include the Cocoon Shelter, First Step Family Violence Intervention Center, BG Christian Food Pantry and the Perrysburg Heights Community Center.

This year, because of the Greek housing units being demolished,

EXAM TIPS SERIES 2:STAPLES OF STUDYING

Library to be extend hours of operation during final two weeks

Once again, exam week is fast approaching, causing many students to stress about their final grades. Luckily, students can enjoy the benefits of Jerome library being open 24/5 during the last week of classes as well as exam week as they prepare to take their finals.

The University has been promoting this policy since the spring of 2013, said Cynthia Jones, a resource desk employee.

“A student from the Learning Commons conducted a gate count to find out when people were using and leaving the library,” Jones said. “During these last two weeks, we noticed that students were staying here up until close.”

In order to allow the students full access

to the library and provide them with a study space, the library’s extended hours will con-tinue until the end of the year and during these weeks in the years to come.

Sunday through Thursday, the library will be open 24/5; that is, 24 hours a day/5 days a week.

With exams quickly approaching, the library employees had a few tips for students.

1.) Make use of the Learning Commons. Help is available if you need it.

2.) Choose a quiet place to study, away from distractions

3.) Take frequent breaks - you need them.

4.) Come into your study session pre-pared - do not come hungry, tired or without your materials

5.) Even though the library is open 24 hours, sleep is key to success

Drivers traveling on local roads near the University golf course shouldn’t worry about errant balls.As the Forrest Creason Golf Course, located near Interstate 75, approaches the end of its first month of operation of 2014, no

incidents have occurred due to flying balls.The course, managed by the Department of Recreation and Wellness, will gradually experience an increase of student and

public golfers in the coming months, but that doesn’t mean that there will be a rise in golf ball-related incidents.“Occasionally balls come from out of bounds,” said Kurt Thomas, director of the course. Thomas said accidents do happen, just not as often as many might think. He estimated only one or two loose balls cause dam-

age any given year.At the course located on the northeast corner of campus, four holes run parallel to roads. Hole 17 runs adjacent to Mercer Road; holes 10 and 18 are adjacent to Poe Road; and hole 14 runs along Stadium Drive.

“[The BG News] is over-seen by a body that rep-resents campus very well and professional media,” Taylor said, noting that when complaints are brought up to the board, it investigates them.

USG did raise con-cerns during the board’s April meeting, which are ref lected in the current resolution, Taylor said. The board recommend-ed encouraging student organizations to write letters to the editor, guest columns and comment on stories, she said.

The News’ submission policy for letters to the editor and guest columns can be found on page four of each print edition of the paper. Comments are allowed on BGNews.com.

In the draft, the Un iversit y at h let ic department is cited as one of the complainants. The legislation reads that reporting inaccu-racies limited student attendance and sup-port for athletes, which Jason Knavel, assistant director for Athletic Communications, said is false.

The department asked USG to remove it from any involvement in the resolution on Tuesday.

“Any concerns that we might have don’t rise to the level of it needing a resolution,” Knavel said, referring to other meth-

ods of expressing con-cerns with The News.

The Black Student Union was also cited in the resolution in terms of being misquoted. Gregory Harrison, public relations chair and future BSU President, said USG approached BSU about if the organization had been misquoted or mis-represented. Harrison said the organization was misquoted in an article from spring 2013 and con-tacted the reporter asking to cease the relationship.

The News did not receive any emails, web-site submissions or voice-mails from the time and no one spoke with The News regarding any com-plaints.

BSU didn’t think to send a correction to the paper because the orga-nization didn’t realize it had the opportunity to do so.

“If we had known [the policy], we would have done it initially,” Harrison said.

Ti mbrook echoed Harrison’s concerns and said he feels people are either unaware of the submission policy or are not submitting correc-tions.

“I think [people are] just emotional, so that might be something that’s contributing to the lack of submission or it’s not as advertised as much as it ought to be,” Timbrook said.

The BG News’ correc-tion policy is listed after

the blotter on page two in every publication.

“We want to be able to go back to some of the organizations that came to us and say: ‘You will be heard through the submission policy,’” Timbrook said.

When student organi-zations approached them with concerns, USG did not refer them to The BG News’ correction pol-icy because Oehler said “some organizations expressed that they had tried to follow up with The BG News and felt that they were not getting where they’d like to go.”

The News has not received any emails regarding meetings with a News representative, misquotations, com-plaints or corrections that were not followed up on.

there will be two large trucks to take any large donations from the houses.

Junior Livia Raulinaitis, co-coordinator of WYMO and an intern with the Department of Campus Sustainability, has been pre-paring for the WYMO event since mid-February.

Coming from the view-point of a student as well as a coordinator, Raulinaitis said she sees the program in sev-eral ways.

She said as well as being a good way to make a student have fewer things to take home, it is also good for the community.

Raulinaitis said most stu-dents will look at the pro-gram and just see the boxes and know it is going to a charity.

“People don’t see every-thing that goes into it,” she said

This week there will be one hour of collection each day, beginning next week there will be three hours of collection each day as well as three hours of sorting each day. During closing week-end, a majority of the sorting will occur.

“There will probably be at least 10 hours [of sorting] closing weekend,” she said.

Tim Shaal, senior asso-ciate director in the Office of Residence Life, said resi-dence halls close at 10 a.m. on May 10.

“Traditionally residents need to be out of their rooms within 24 hours of their last

final,” he said.There are two ways stu-

dents can check out – stan-dard and express.

When students check out standard they meet with a Resident Adviser and they go through the room inventory list to see if students may be charged for anything. Express is when students just drop off their key and leave.

If students have items they want to get rid of they can donate them.

Students who live in the city have the option to have the city pick up large fur-niture items for a fee, said Brian Craft, public works director for the City of Bowling Green.

The city can come and pick up the first large item for $25 and then for each additional item it is $15 per item. Students can also take items directly to the landfill.

If people set items at the curb and leave, the city goes out and takes note of them and could charge the land owner for the removal, Craft said.

“The disposal fees could go back to the tenant,” he said.

If students want to donate large items they can talk to a private service to pick it up, Craft said.

Also, if students have small items Craft said they can place them in the 96-gallon containers and the city will pick them up and recycle them.

The city does offer two large item pick ups per year – one in March and one in September.

Playing in front of a capacity crowd during the weekend at Cochrane Soccer Stadium, the BG rugby team defeated its opposition to earn a birth in the Final Four of the National Collegiate Rugby Championships.

The Falcons defeated Iowa State University 37–12 on Saturday and the University of Missouri 53–10 on Sunday in a pair of games.

Missouri had beaten Middle Tennessee State 46–10 on Saturday to earn the matchup with Bowling Green.

Scrum half Mike Powell led all scorers in the two-day event with seventeen points on two tries, two conversion kicks and a penalty kick against ISU and 18 points on two tries and four conversion kicks against Missouri.

“We have been to the Final Four several times in the past, but this could be the year we win the whole thing,” said head coach Tony Mazzarella.

The Falcons are ranked second in the nation behind the University of Central Florida.

The Falcons offensive and defen-sive dominance was never more apparent than in Sunday’s match against Missouri. The Tigers did not get to run an offensive play until eighteen minutes into the first half and did not cross into Bowling Green territory until the 28 minute mark.

The Falcon forwards constantly had their opponents on their back heels. Bowling Green won not only all of its own scrums but also 42 percent of their opponent’s scrums.

“It’s tough to generate any offense when you are constantly being driven backwards,” stated BG’s vice captain Mike Brown. The veteran pack, led by Brown at hooker and captain Dane Szente at prop, effec-tively bottled up Missouri that the Tigers only option was to kick away any possession they did achieve.

“Missouri had one chance to get back into the game and we snuffed that out with our goal line stand,” said Bowling Green flanker Frank Viancourt.

With Bowling Green holding a 31–5 lead, and taking advantage of a penalty that left BG short a defend-er, the Tigers mounted an attack on the Falcon goal line that was met with an eight-minute long goal line stand by the Falcon defense. Gang tackling and defensive pen-etration left the Tiger offense with no success, play after play until BG lock Ed Luther stole the ball and fly half Teddy Terezis’s kick resolved the crisis.

Along with Mike Powell’s points, wing Steve Fritsch, center Trent Szente, lock Bryan Kean and flank-er Justin Stevens each scored solo tries while Dane Szente scored a pair, including a 50-yard pinball-like cruise through seven Missouri defenders.

The Falcons will carry a 42–2–1 record with them into the Final Four on Saturday, at Stanford University in California. Their opponent there will be the University of Arizona while Central Florida and the University of San Diego face off on the other side of the bracket. The National Championship final match will be played Sunday.

A former football player from the University came back to visit cam-pus, but for reasons beyond the field.

Steve Sanders was on campus to discuss the process of being suc-cessful, not just on the field but also in life.

He spoke to a group of about 70 students on Monday night about his soon-to-be released book, Training Camp for Life: Developing Champions in Sport and in Life.

The presentation Sanders gave consisted of a myriad of points per-taining to the process of being suc-cessful, which is the message he wants those who read his book to get.

“Success is a process, it’s not an end result,” Sanders said. “You can start things one way and it can turn out a totally different way in your life.”

This message and book is impor-tant to Sanders because he said it directly relates to the path that his personal life has taken.

Sanders is one of two people from his high school class to grad-uate college. However, he experi-enced extreme success while at the University, accumulating over 2,000 receiving yards and 24 touch-downs, and earned an opportunity to play in the NFL.

After five years in the NFL, Sanders elected to retire which lead to further adversity for him. Ultimately, he directed his focus to helping the youth, giving back to the community, and becoming an influential figure that those aspir-ing to be successful can look up to.

This unpredictable path brought Sanders back to campus in order to share his insight to those who were looking for direction and inspira-tion.

“Everybody, whether it’s Bill Gates or Michael Jordan, at some point in time they’ve had some level of inspiration in their lives,” Sanders said. “That’s what I look to

do is be that inspiration and I know ‘Training Camp for Life’ is going to be that inspiration.”

To address this idea of being successful, Sanders introduced his three “I’s” which he hopes help to layout the process during his speech.

“To be inspired, impacted and influenced,” Sanders said. “All of those things are going to really pre-pare them towards the journey that they’re going on and the level of suc-cess that they’re going to achieve in their lives.”

The director of marketing for Training Camp for Life, Nobles Darby spoke on Sanders’ message and its importance in ultimately becoming successful in life.

“Success in life is not going to come without a cost,” Darby said. “You’re going to have to sacrifice blood, sweat, tears, family, friends, money, whatever is near and dear to you. You’re going to have to sacrifice those things in order to really accomplish what you desire in life.”

Sanders came back to campus in order relay his knowledge, influ-ence those on a journey in life and this message impacted some of those in attendance, he said.

“I thought the presentation was good,” said Jamel Martin, a senior football player. “I got the chance to ask my question to him and I think he helps influence people.”

Not only were students seeing the benefits from the presentation by Sanders, but his message also extended to the University staff.

“He’s a real example of some-one who overcame conditions that were really against him,” said Nancy Spencer, a sport manage-ment professor. “It proves the fact that hard work really pays off. I’m thinking about what that next step is going to be and I think the clar-

New NBA Commissioner Adam Silver made his first major decision in office regarding an owner on Tuesday afternoon.

Silver hosted a nationally tele-vised press conference to dis-cuss what the punishment for Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling’s racist com-ments would be.

Knowing this one press confer-ence, this one decision, this five-minute speech could determine his entire legacy, Silver came out and said three words that will be played on loop all week: “Banned for Life.”

For those who have not heard, Sterling told his girlfriend Vivian Stiviano, who is Latina and African American, that she should not post pictures of herself with black people. All of this started after Sterling was informed of a picture that included Stiviano with Magic Johnson and

Matt Kemp. In the 15-minute recording,

Sterling was quoted saying things like, “You can sleep with [black peo-ple]. You can bring them in, you can do whatever you want. “The little I ask you is not to promote it ... and not bring them to my games.”

Silver, who is three months into his new job, just made the biggest decision of his career. I applaud Silver for having the guts so early in his term to do what must be done; he made the right decision and that’s what matters.

After the decision, I was ecstatic that the NBA finally has a com-missioner who is not scared of the owners. Looking back though, I have to think what other choice did Silver have?

With such prominent African Americans members on the team, like head coach Doc Rivers and NBA players union President and all-star Chris Paul, Silver had no choice but to ban Sterling.

I’m not taking away from what Silver did at all, it took guts to ban an

Book of InspirationUniversity alumnus Steve Sanders gave motivational speech Monday, relays knowledge to students

If you support equal rights for women, I’m sorry to break it to you, but you are a feminist.

I do not k now how many t imes I have been told to put my “femi-nism behind” me or how many t imes it has had a bad connotation attached to it.

Why is the term femi-nist even a label? Can it simply be a conscious choice to take advantage of our freedom and have respect for those who sur-round us?

The other day I was addressing this same issue.

I should not have to change what I am wear-ing because “boys will be boys.” Never should I, or anyone else, feel like they are a walking bloody piece of meat, cautious of the lions out on the prowl.

Everyone has the right to feel safe.

During the weekend,

my mother was telling me about a horrifying situation in her past that still makes her cringe to this day.

My older sister and I were younger at the time, four and five, and she had just gotten off work. She was exhausted, and after working so many hours every day, she simply wanted to come home and go to bed.

When she entered her home, there were seven guys she had never met in her living room, and beer cans everywhere. Frustrated but tired, she chose to ignore it.

She went into the bath-room to brush her teeth before bed when she over-heard her now ex-husband and his friends reminisc-ing on their “college days.”

They laughed and joked about things no gentle-man should do when alco-hol is involved.

Now, my ex-step dad was not involved in this “fun time,” but his laugh-ter and support of his friend’s behavior is just as bad as if he had been there, too.

Obviously, she could not

hold it in any longer. She flipped out, and forced them out of her house, but it was his involvement in the story which made her even more furious.

You do not have to dedi-cate every minute, every second or every hour of your life to promot-ing equal rights; simply be aware of the issues in society. And have enough decency to call someone out when they are being disrespectful or degrad-ing, even if they are your friends.

Be the bigger person. W hen you know some-thing is wrong, speak up. If you overhear a degrading, racist, sex-ist or harassing com-ment, say it makes you uncomfortable.

Who you chose to sur-round yourself with and whom you chose to be a part of your life has a direct reflection on you. Focus on making each other better people, rather than simply going along with your pals.

In my more than two years as a columnist, and many times over the last three decades, I have been asked why I am a Democrat.

The answer I gave back was, at times, facetious. I would ask “why aren’t you?” Then I would tell why I am.

The first reason that I am such a fervent Democrat is, with the exception of the American with Disabilities Act, every law passed for the underdog has been the work of the Democrats.

Civil Rights, LGBTQ Rights, Women’s Rights, stu-dent loans, Pell Grants, the minimum wage, campaign finance reform and other poli-cies have been made law by the Democrats or have been thwarted by the Republicans.

All of these laws fought, bled, and yes, died for have been championed by Democrats.

As for the solid Democratic South of Jim Crow, that is a blight on my party’s legacy.

It is telling, though, that soon as the Civil Rights Bill was passed, those racist

southern Democrats became Republicans overnight. The Republicans like to call them-selves “the Party of Lincoln.”

This is beyond farcical because, if alive today, Lincoln most certainly would be a Democrat.

Today’s Republican Party is made up of clueless folks who do not realize they are voting against their best interests.

The Republican Party of today is home to many fringe groups who veil hatred in the talk of freedom.

This would be laughable if not so dangerous.

The Democratic Party is for all Americans, especially those who need a helping hand.

As someone who has received a helping hand many times, I would be nothing but a common hypocrite to not be a Democrat.

The Democratic Party stands for fairness.

It stands for righteousness. It is the party of equal

opportunity. It is the party that has fought

unfair inequality for a centu-ry and continues to fight this unconscionable economic inequality now.

I used to say there were only two reasons to vote Republican.

You either were rich and greedy or poor and ignorant.

While this may sound harsh, I believe the same holds true.

Today’s Republicans have shown to only be interested in taxing the poor and middle-class while slashing taxes on the wealthy.

I learned early in my political awakening that the Conservatives love to mask this fleecing of the middle-class and poor with decisive social issues that are essentially meaning-less to the political process.

They smokescreen and people are easily distracted. It is past time for this crass, un-American tactic to stop. It is time to wake up.

So I ask you, my readers, to really look past the lies and our own prejudices and see who really exemplifies the American Ideal.

Who is working to make sure all Americans have the chance to succeed and live what is called “The American Dream?”

The ones wanting that and working toward that are the Democrats.

That is why I have always been a Democrat and always will be.

Cliven Bundy has now been hailed for some weeks as a hero of the Republican Party by such figures as Sean Hannity for his refusal to pay his dues for grazing his cattle on federal land.

He has since stated that he does not recognize the legiti-macy of the federal govern-ment and has forced agents to withdraw as several hun-dred armed individuals have flocked to his defense, form-ing an impromptu militia.

Now it has come to light in recent interviews he has given that Bundy has some extremely racist views.

His remarks were noth-ing worthy of being repeated, and even as disgusting and repugnant as his views are, I’m not writing to assassinate his character.

He has a right to say what he wants, but to see what he rep-resents, what he really stands for as far as politics are con-cerned, we need to take a brief look back into history.

In 1790, America was a young nation.

The Constitution had only been ratified three years ear-lier, and already then-presi-dent George Washington was facing a challenge to federal authority quite similar to that of Bundy and his armed

thugs: The Whiskey Rebellion. Alcohol was taxed just as it

is now. In rural Pennsylvania, the whiskey producers got together and refused to pay the tax, taking to arms to defend their would-be ‘right’ to not be taxed.

For the first and only time in history, a U.S. president got on his horse and led his troops into battle to suppress what had become a violent rebel-lion and a challenge to federal authority.

Today, amidst the conversa-tion about this modern day whiskey rebel Bundy, comes the endless and hopelessly off-base veneration of the found-ing fathers, whom many cite as men who would have sup-ported Bundy’s actions.

I think, however, that those citing the Founding Fathers, in this case as well as many others, are dead wrong.

Washington, the father of this country, made it very clear when he suppressed the Whiskey Rebellion that the federal government could not, and would not, tolerate chal-

lenges to its authority by those who refused to obey the law.

It is worth mentioning in some cases the law is wrong and must be challenged as it was in the Civil Rights Movement, for example, but I’m not hiding behind the law, nor are those who are rightfully denouncing Bundy’s antics.

Bundy is a man who has refused to pay fees that many other ranchers have paid for years without the slightest complaint.

I find it astounding that so many have bought into Bundy’s sob story about being victimized by the fed-eral government, and more disturbingly, that so many are willing to take up arms to defend him.

Right wing groups have spent a lot of money and a lot of time so that someone like Bundy might be made out as a hero simply for draping himself in the flag and tak-ing the stance that the federal government is invalid.

The idea that Bundy is somehow a victim or a patri-ot is based on a false and shamefully ignorant reading of history.

There is a festering and venomous populism to which Bundy is appealing that has

been very slyly and very tact-fully slipped into place.

It seems there is little else that could convince so many so fully that a fee-evading free-loader like Bundy is some kind of poster boy for freedom. It is not about ‘the patriots vs. the evil government;’ the people are the government.

It is ironic that any politi-cian who wears a $2,000 suit and who drives an expensive car has the ire to put on a cow-boy hat and talk about how wasteful and corrupt the fed-eral government is.

Make no mistake, the GOP is now distancing itself from Bundy because he has revealed too bluntly that he and such figures as Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Rick Perry are all cut from the same cloth where their views concerning the federal government are concerned.

Bundy is not a patriot, nor does he have the right to pick and choose which laws he follows.

If it comes to violence, he and his rabble will be dealt with, and they will not die heroes, or patriots, but as the armed criminals that they are.

As children, we spend most of our lives wishing to be older.

We watched thosewho were older than us and dreamed of the day our birthday cake would have the same amount of candles as theirs.

When I was 15, I longed to be 16; when I was 17, I longed to be 18.

And even still, I anxiously await my birthdays as I prog-ress in years.

Age signifies opportu-nity and growth. Doors are opened as we get older.

I think sometimes, though, throughout my own life I have wished away my years with too much haste. It is only when I look back that I wish I was content with where I was.

The simplicity of youth is something that will never be able to be replicated once it has been outgrown.

I am still very young and have a lot of milestones to complete, but I still look back at my years where I had little substance to worry about and wish I wouldn’t have spent them wishing I was older.

It is a common theme, longing for new seasons of life. Most of us, as college stu-dents, are looking ahead at our careers that we are work-ing towards.

And while it is very impor-tant to plan and think about what is ahead, it is also just as important to appreci-ate where we are currently whether it is good or bad.

Appreciating what is good is a much easier task, but it is through appreciating what is bad and allowing ourselves to embrace where we are that we can truly grow.

Bad places will eventually fade into good places in time. Growing older does not mean things will get easier.

On the contrary, as you get older, more is expected of you and situations become more difficult.

However, with age comes life experience and the ability to empathize and see things differently, things that are very profitable.

It is important to be aware of where life has led currently and allow it to soak in.

Don’t strive to be older or different, just walk the path and accept where it leads.

Heartbleed bug no longer problemBy Seth Weber

Web Editor

Although the Heartbleed Bug was a widespread secu-rity breach, students no longer have anything to fear.

The Heartbleed bug was a security vulnerability discov-ered in early April that affected many websites, and opened Internet users up to having their sensitive information being accessed by others.

Any website that uses open SSL, an open source software, is vulnerable to the bug, said

Robert Green, assistant profes-sor of computer science.

When PCs and servers com-municate, a server sends a computer a word, and asks for the computer to send back a word with the same amount of characters.

“[The server is] going to say dog, and you’d say three characters back,” Green said. “What the Heartbleed Bug does is, instead of that, [the server would] say dog, 10,000 [characters] ... you read dog in your memory, and you send the rest of the memory after

that until you hit 10,000 [char-acters].”

The extra information sent could include things such as passwords, user names and other sensitive information.

The bug existed for two years before it was found, said Matthew Haschak, director of IT security and infrastructure.

Once it was found, solutions to the problem were quickly sought out.

“It became a race between the hackers trying to take advantage of it, and the good guys trying to fix everything

before hand,” said Haschak.Green said the bug was

quickly fixed after it was found.“The good thing is it was

fixed really rapidly after it was found,” he said. “Everyone is making a bigger deal of it than it is because it was fixed so rapidly.”

Once the bug was found, patches were made in order to fix it.

Now, there are checks in place to count the number of characters sent between serv-

Hotels in city booked months in advance, students visit special places before graduation

By Kendra ClarkIn Focus Editor

For many students, gradu-ation is more than just a walk to get a degree, it is an entire weekend event for friends and family to

celebrate.This means the town

brings in more people and more money during the weekend, boosting the economy, said Earlene K i lpatr ick, execut ive director for the city cham-

ber of commerce.“We fill hotels, fami-

lies come to eat dinner and even [filling] the gas tank will all increase the income,” she said. “Also, the students will probably want to go back to that

one special place one last time before they leave, like a favorite store or restau-rant.”

In order to help the town prepare, Kilpatrick

See GRADUATE | Page 8

Business spikes during commencement week

While hole 14 shouldn’t be much of a concern because it is along a low traffic road, it’s understandable why some drivers might be worried about balls near Mercer and Poe roads.

Lots 12 and 18 near the Perry Field House are often full of on-campus and off-campus students’ cars.

The speed limit on Poe Road is 50 mph until the intersec-tion at Mercer Road. After the intersection the limit reduc-es to 35 mph. Higher speeds could be a factor for increased damage if golf balls were to strike a moving vehicle.

Players are sure to be care-ful when playing the edge

of the course, however. The University golf course, like many other golf courses, doesn’t accept liability for damage caused by rogue golf balls near the course.

“I’ve seen it happen,” fresh-man Brett Rinker said. “If someone hits a snapper and the wind’s going the right way, it can bounce [to Lot 12].”

Rinker plays on the University golf team with Eli Stacy and they said they understand why the University won’t pay for damage done by golfers.

“If I hit a house on another course it’d be my fault.” Stacy said.

When a golfer on the University course hits a ball out of bounds, they are finan-cially responsible for any dam-age caused by the ball. If the

person whose property was damaged can’t locate the golf-er, they must pay.

Betty Birr, who works as the office manager for the Bowling Green Country Club on Fairview Avenue, said members try their best to avoid damaging property in the area.

“Our members stay out of [homeowners] yards. If a ball is on our side of the sidewalk, they can get it,” Birr said.

The country club sits in the middle of a residential area near the city park. Cars often travel near the course and doz-ens of homes line the course.

Birr said the club has the same policy regarding dam-age caused by golf balls as the University course. The club isn’t liable for damage caused by golf balls. The golfer who hit

the ball is responsible for any damage caused.

Insurance policies for homeowners and car owners near golf courses would cover damage caused by golf balls, Birr said.

According to an employee from Organ Collision on Newton Road, windshield repairs and replacements would have to be done by mobile companies and could cost up to $300. Small dent repairs could cost between $75 and $100 per dent as well.

If in the slim chance a car near the University course is struck by a golf ball, car own-ers can rest assured golfers and staff at the course always act in good faith.

“If your car gets hit we’ll help you locate who did it,” Thomas said.

ers and computers to keep the security breach from happen-ing, Green said.

The fix was only a few lines of code, he said.

“As far as bugs go, this is one that was extremely simple to fix,” Green said.

In response to this bug, the University tried to patch its systems as quickly as possible, Haschak said.

There were 82 systems to patch, but there were a hand-ful the University didn’t have full control over, such as fire walls, and had to wait for those

specific software producers to release a patch.

“We were kind of in a hold-ing pattern from there,” Haschak said.

This bug opened up web-sites to attackers, and the University was able to see that activity after the patches were made.

There were about six “attackers” after the patches went up, but they weren’t able to take advantage of the bug because of the security updates, Haschak said.

Although the security vulnerabilities have been patched, Chief Information Officer John Ellinger encour-ages students to change their

passwords.“The only thing [students]

needed to do is to change their password after they have been informed,” he said.

Green said students should also use different passwords for different websites.

Students should be cau-tious of emails asking them to change their passwords.

“Whenever an event like this happens, the bad guys know that we’re telling stu-dents to change [their] pass-words,” Green said. “They will act like security or ITS and bring them to bad website ... Be wary of communications asking you to click on a link to change your password.”

The Falcons have won 13 of their last 17 games and have won seven of their last eight games.

The Falcons come in to this contest with an over-all record of 19-20 and Eastern Michigan comes into the game at 15-26.

Jake Thomas was named Male Pizza Hut Athlete of the Week when he hit .385 with a team-high seven runs scored. During those four games he added four RBIs and was on base 11

times, boosting his sea-son average to .274.

Senior pitcher Cody Apthorpe is set to take the mound for Wednesday’s game. Apthorpe comes in with a 1-6 record and an 8.79 ERA. The Windham alumnus will face off against Eastern Mich iga n’s Michael Marsinek who is 2-1 with a 3.95 ERA.

Jay Alexander, who is in his sixth season for the Eagles began the 2014 season with a win against the number 13 ranked Clemson Tigers on the road. The Eagles are hit-ting .269 on the season while having an earned run average of 5.44. Lee Longo leads Eastern Michigan with a .375

average, 29 runs scored, and 38 RBIs.

The Falcons come into Wednesday’s matchup with a .285 average an have an ERA of 4.76. The Falcons have also swiped 53 bases on 70 attempts this season, led by Brandon Howard with 13.

Jeremy Shay leads the team with 15 extra base hits, 32 RBIs, and is third on the team with .328 average. Shay also leads

the Falcons with a .482 slugging percentage and .446 on base percentage.

After Wednesday’s game against Eastern Michigan, the Falcons will travel to Oxford Ohio this week-end where they will play Miami University. Miami is 19-21 on the season and will play Indiana on Wednesday before facing the Falcons this weekend.

The Falcons are cur-rently 10-8 in the Mid-American Conference and third in the East behind Kent State and Buffalo. The Falcons won two of three games against Kent State this past weekend and will face Buffalo in a three game series in the middle of May.

ity of vision he talked about is important to me.”

Although, Sanders isn’t just content with stopping here.

He is making this book into a three-part series. This series is intended to continually help people along their jour-ney while growing deeper in topics on the process of being successful, Sanders said.

“The current book talks about three main points and that’s success, goals and sup-port,” Sanders said. “The next book in the series is going to talk about three to four dif-ferent topics and [each book is] going to go a little deeper.”

Sanders ended his dream as a football player to pursue his newfound dream of help-ing others along the journey to achieve their dreams.

“I think he has a strong message and he is inspi-rational to people and I’ll be interested to see how his story develops,” Spencer said.

The story of Steve Sanders is still growing as he con-tinues to pursue and devel-op the concept of Training Camp for Life. While Sanders felt he had his life figured out as he played collegiate football and then transi-tioned his ability to the NFL, he wasn’t ever truly at peace with himself until he began his newest journey.

It’s this journey that Sanders said he wants his audience to embrace.

“You don’t have life figured out,” Sanders said. “Continue to stay with it and enjoy the process and I think that you’ll ultimately find what you’re called to do and what you’re supposed to be doing.”

owner who is such a large figure in Los Angeles. More guts than former commissioner David Stern had when he received complaints from players like Baron Davis and Elgin Baylor about the plantation — like organization Sterling was running.

Stern sat on that informa-tion and did nothing. It doesn’t matter if Baylor lost his case in court; when multiple players are coming to you expressing the same complaint, it’s worth an investigation. Now three months into his term Silver has to deal with it. The punishment came down but this situation is nowhere close to being over.

The NBA, in my opinion, is the best league in U.S., but we would all be naïve to think that Sterling is the only owner in the league who is racist or runs his team in that way. More than 70 percent of the NBA is African

American and to think owners still try to run their teams with a plantation mindset is sad and disturbing. I can’t say I’m sur-prised though this is what hap-pens when you put so much power in the hands of ignorant people.

If people did not know before, this should open their eyes to the fact that racism is still alive — it has just become hidden better. Strides have been taken towards equality and respect to all minorities, but as long as there are people like Sterling there will always be racism, sadly.

I was told by the wisest per-son I know, my grandmother, that if “you don’t stand for any-thing, you will fall for every-thing.” That’s exactly what Silver did - he took a stand say-ing that racism will not be toler-ated in the NBA.

Questions still need to be answered by Silver but this was a step in the right direction. For now, well done Adam Silver, well done.

said the stores should staff more employees and anticipate a larger crowd that weekend.

The hotels bring in big revenue for the town, said Wendy Chambers, executive director for The Bowling Green Convection and Visitors Bureau.

“It definitely does fill all the hotel rooms for that weekend and there are about 400 of them,” she said. “Obviously they have to eat and get gas, so that helps as well.”

The Holiday Inn across the street from Meijer has been booked for a long time, said assistant gener-al manager Angie Spahn.

“We’ve been continu-ally getting calls every day from people looking for a place to say,” she said. “I think all places in BG are booked.”

Holiday Inn has 73 rooms, all of which have been filled, which is a con-sistent pattern for any big weekend.

Nichole Carpenter, sales executive for Best Western Falcon Plaza, also has seen the increase in visitors and has all 85 rooms filled for both weekends.

“All of our rooms were filled less than 48 hours since the graduation date was announced,” she said. “This is true for other events as well like all home games and sporting

events.” Chambers hopes that

during their stay, the par-ents and family will stop by the visitor center and pick up a passport book.

“It has all the attrac-tions that BG can offer, and people can finish it in one weekend,” she said. “It includes a compilation of retail to restaurants, like SBX, the museum, Café Havanna, the down-town farmers’ market and more.”

People can take the passports and get stamps at the places they visit, Chambers said. After they fill the books, they can be dropped back off in the visitor center and partici-pates will be entered into a drawing.
