COVER (C) - 1

Despite disappointing poll-ing numbers this summer, U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., the liber-tarian-minded presidential can-didate, said organizing continues in all 50 states, and he’s “all in” for a campaign long past the highly watched early voting states.

P a u l ’ s c o m m e n t s c a m e Thursday afternoon in a phone interview with the Iowa State Daily. He said frontrunner Don-ald Trump’s popularity is solely based on his “celebrity” status and completely dismissed poll-ing showing him well behind the frontrunner.

“I think there is some ce-lebrity distortion in the polls, but still when you ask people in most of these polls, ‘Have you decided who you’re voting for?’ two-thirds of people say no,” Paul said. “Then they ask you to go ahead and pick, even though you’re [undecided]. It’s really kind of a poll of leaners, and it’s really influenced greatly by ce-lebrity.”

Throughout the summer, Paul was considered a top-tier candidate and often polled in the double digits, but his support has fallen considerably after the entrance of Trump in the race. A CNN poll released Thursday showed Paul with support from 3 percent of likely Republican caucus goers, while Trump led the poll with 32 percent.

Despite the Trump distrac-tion, Paul said his campaign is focused on organizing efforts nationwide, including an up-coming campaign tour of college campuses.

“We now have 300 college campuses that are organized around the country, we’re orga-nized in all 50 states and we have 15 schools organized in Iowa,” Paul said. “We plan on working hard to register voters and get young people out.”

Paul will participate in the Presidential Caucus Series at 7:30 p.m. Friday in the Sun Room of the Memorial Union.

Paul also discussed several news items currently being de-bated in Congress, his policy proposals on education and his

prediction for this weekend’s Cy-Hawk game in Ames.

Iran nuclear dealJust before the interview,

Senate Democrats blocked a reso-lution brought forward by Re-publicans who disapprove of the agreement made with Iran that works to curb its nuclear capa-

bilities. Paul voted to end debate, which would allow the Senate to pass the disapproval resolution with a simple majority.

“I ended up being a vote against the nuclear agreement because if they chose not to com-ply, or if they’re deceitful, there isn’t really sufficient leverage to

entice them or encourage them to comply,” Paul said. “Once the sanctions are released, I just don’t think there is going to be a whole lot of leverage to try to get them to comply, and they don’t have a history of being honest

Students confused by tuition spike

By Sarah [email protected]

A day after the Board of Re-gents approved a spring 2016 tu-ition increase for in-state students at Iowa State and the University of Northern Iowa, students on campus reacted with confusion.

The 3 percent increase will amount to $100 per in-state stu-dent next semester. As of now, the tuition increase is solely for the spring 2016 semester.

This tuition hike came as a surprise to many ISU students on campus Thursday.

Becca Kenealy, junior in family and consumer science

education and studies, had not heard of the tuition increase prior to speaking with the Iowa State Daily.

“I don’t know why they did it,” Kenealy said. “It would re-ally help to know what it’s going toward.”

Jordan Guerdet, sophomore in kinesiology and health, and Lili

Zenobian, sophomore in commu-nications, were concerned how the $100 increase would affect students’ budgets.

“Students will have to take out more loans for school, and it’s an added expense that students don’t need,” Guerdet said.

Edel Aron, senior in math-ematics, was worried about ex-

isting money in the university’s budget.

“I’m more concerned with how money is already being spent,” Aron said. “If there’s any unnecessary money in the budget that could be cut then we wouldn’t need the tuition increase.”

During that Tuesday morning, aircraft crashed into the World Trade

Center, the Pentagon and the last failed to reach the capitol. 2,996

people were killed, including plane passengers and victims inside the buildings.

“It was probably the defining moment of the last decade,” said Neil Vezeau,

President Steven Leath put the spotlight on Iowa State’s growing enrollment in his address Thursday night and shared how the university plans on responding to the growth.

It was announced Wednes-day that Iowa State broke its en-rollment record for the seventh straight year with 36,001 students.

“Every single student here could be that one,” Leath said.

Leath said the university cares about individual student success, which shows in the enrollment numbers.

He also gave credit to recruit-ing, admissions, marketing and alumni for the growing number of students.

“There’s a reason students are coming here,” Leath said.

Almost 100,000 alumni live in Iowa, and Iowa State has edu-cated more Iowans than any other institution.

“Our alumni are just as for-ward-thinking, just as passionate, just as caring about this university as the new generation,” Leath said.

Leath said the university pro-vides areas of study which align and drive the economy, as well as have a proven track record of success.

NEWS 3Friday, Sept. 11, 2015

T w o I S U s t u d e n t s had the opportunity this summer to go on a globe-trotting adventure with the Land O’Lakes fellowship called Emerging Leaders For Food Security.

“It was a great honor,” said Olivia Reicks, senior in supply chain management. “They rolled out the red carpet for us … It was a very well-planned program.”

Reicks and Trey For-syth, junior in agricultural business, were two of 10 college students chosen from five universities for the Emerging Leaders For Food Security fellowship and to take on the Global Food Challenge, a program aimed at creating innova-tive new solutions to the problem of food security.

The fellowship, which included an internship that took place over the sum-mer, challenged them to cultivate an original idea on how to impact food se-curity in developing nations around the world.

“Food security is one of the most complex and crucial issues people of our generation will face,” For-syth said.

Food security is about the amount of food in the world and the ability of people to access it. People are food secure when they have reliable access to food. The issue is timely because the world’s population will

grow from 7.3 billion people to 9.6 billion in 2050, ac-cording to Land O’Lakes Inc., a farmer owned co-op company with a vested in-terest in food security.

Reicks’ and Forsyth’s f e l l o w s h i p w i t h L a n d O’Lakes started last fall as they created and researched proposals.

Reicks’ proposal in-volved helping farmers in

Malawi reduce transporta-tion costs to allow them to bring in more income. Additionally, she focused on how to transform Ma-lawi’s food supply chain of pigeon peas to take on the format of the more success-ful tobacco industry in the country. Reicks also looked at how to build more secure storage.

“The answer to food

security is not just food,” Reicks said. “It’s also so-cietal factors [such as] not having market access and not having proper storage technology.”

Forsyth’s proposal was vastly different — his in-volved starting food pro-cessing co-ops and getting a grant to improve the reg-istration process. Forsyth said co-ops are important because members can dem-ocratically vote on issues.

The next phase was an 11-week internship in which participants spent one week in Washington D.C. and two weeks in Ma-lawi in Africa. They worked with people in engineer-ing, agriculture, business, marketing and their own mentors to make their ideas a reality.

One of the challenges Reicks and Forsyth had to overcome was the lack of classroom and college ex-perience, said Carly Cum-mings, program coordi-nator for the economics department.

“In every school as-signment, you have a ru-bric and know exactly what

you’re supposed to do to get there,” Reicks said. “Food security isn’t that way.”

Forsyth said a chal-lenge he faced was bringing down the scope of his broad ideas to a narrower vision. Another challenge he noted was the issue of feasibly ty-ing them into Land O’Lake’s business model.

“It’s not just saying, ‘Here’s what you can do,’ but laying out the plan of how you can do it was prob-ably the biggest challenge that we faced,” Forsyth said.

Forsyth said despite the challenges he faced he learned how to adapt to new issues, which helped him develop and improve his critical thinking skills.

Reicks and Forsyth grew immensely in their critical thinking and com-munication skills, Cum-mings said.

“Feeding the world is not the silver bullet that some people may think,” Cummings said. “By the end of the summer, they were able to dig deep and find smaller projects that will make a large economic effect on the world.”

A new program that will allow ISU staff and stu-dents to check out laptops at Parks Library is testing the waters this school year.

The idea originated last spring from the Library Computation Advisory Committee (CAC), which consists of two staff and student members.

“The library receives a portion of the student tech-nology fees (CAC funds) each semester,” said Greg Davis, assistant director of the library. “We have a committee (the Library CAC) that meets in the spring that develops ideas for the use o f the C AC funds.”

The CAC fund was able to provide Parks with 10 MacBook Airs and 10 Dell laptops running Windows. The laptops can be checked out from the Parks Library Circulation Service Desk, which is west of the main entrance.

The library chose to provide both operating sys-tems to students to be able to watch for trends within

usage and preferences, Da-vis said.

The laptops can be checked out whenever, but must be returned a half hour before the main desk in the library closes or a $50 fine will be given.

“The computers are available on a first-come, first-served basis and must be returned to the Parks Library circulation desk prior to close on the day of checkout,” said Monica

Gillen, communications specialist at the library.

The laptops may not be taken out of the library.

The library lent out one Mac and two PCs in July, when the program went live, nine Macs and 13 PCs in August and 16 Macs and 10 PCs in September, Davis said.

Students and staff with a valid ISU card are the only ones who are allowed to check out the library’s

laptops, and the laptops should be used for aca-demic purposes only.

T h e l a p t o p s a r e equipped with the same software as the worksta-tions in the library — stan-dard office applications. They have wireless Inter-net connections, so us-ers have access to impor-tant Internet tools, such as Blackboard. Users will also receive a power cord and case.

“Last year, the univer-sity installed a wireless net-work upgrade in the library, and we now have a strong Wi-Fi signal throughout the library,” Davis said. “The mobility of the laptops le-verages the Wi-Fi upgrade and allows students to take a computer in the library to the space they need it.”

No feedback has been reported as to how the new program has impacted stu-dents.

“Usage so far has been light,” Davis said. “Right now we are monitoring the use of the checkout program.

“ W e w i l l b r i n g i n -formation about laptop checkouts to our Library CAC committee when we meet again next spring and determine next steps.”

NEWS: Kentucky clerk released from jail

Kim Davis, a county clerk from Kentucky who was jailed for not issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, was released Wednesday.

Davis had argued her religious beliefs conflict with issuing the licenses, and refused to do so, even after the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage nation-wide.

Supporters of Davis gathered in Grayson, Ky., on Wednesday while she awaited release.

GOP presidential can-didates Mike Huckabee and Ted Cruz were in attendance and spoke at the event.

Davis plans to return to work Friday or Monday, and a judge has ordered her to not interfere with deputy clerks issuing licenses.

POLITICS: Hillary says sorry

In an interview with ABC News, Democratic presidential candidate Hill-ary Clinton changed course and apologized for her use of a private email server while serving as Secretary of State.

Clinton held her ground as late as Monday, saying in an interview with the Associ-ated Press in Cedar Rapids that her use of the private server was allowed.

“I’m sorry about that. I take responsibility and I am trying to be as transparent as I possibly can,” Clinton told ABC World News anchor David Muir in an interview Wednesday.

SPORTS: Tyler Sash found dead

Former Iowa Hawk-eye and New York Giant’s football star Tyler Sash was found dead at his home in Oskaloosa on Tuesday.

The Iowa State Medi-cal Examiner’s office said Wednesday that more test-ing needs to be done, and that the cause of death is still under investigation.

Sash played for the Hawkeyes while in college and was drafted by the Gi-ants in the 2011 NFL draft.

“Our thoughts and prayers are certainly with the Sash family,” Iowa foot-

ball coach Kirk Ferentz said Wednesday. “A very diffi-cult ordeal to deal with right now.”

STATE: Regents under criticism from UI students and staff

The Board of Regents, which oversees the state’s three public universities, is under heavy criticism after its selection of J. Bruce Har-reld to be the next president of the University of Iowa.

Of the four final candi-

dates, Harreld’s only expe-rience in education was a job as a lecturer at Harvard. Outside of education, he worked at IBM, Kraft Foods and most recently as a con-sultant for several private companies.

Staff at UI ranked Har-reld as the least qualified candidate for the position.

The UI Faculty Senate and other student govern-ment groups voted that they have “no confidence” in

the Regents following their decision. The mostly sym-bolic vote will not have any impact on Harreld’s future.

ISU: Another year of record enrollment

Iowa State announced another year of record en-rollment Wednesday.

36,001 students was the official count, according to a university release Wednes-day. It marks the seventh straight year of record en-rollment.

Bruce Rastetter, president of the Iowa Board of Regents, said he was disappointed in the University of Iowa Faculty Senate’s vote of no confidence for Bruce Harreld, incoming Univer-sity of Iowa president.

The University of Iowa’s faculty gathered for an emergency meeting Tuesday to discuss whether their feedback was considered for the search for the new UI president. They voted they had no confidence in the Board of Regents.

UI faculty described the search process as flawed, disrespectful, dev-astating, a waste and a failure, accord-ing to a Daily Iowan article.

The UI undergraduate and grad-uate student senators had similar meetings later Tuesday night that resulted in similar motions as the faculty, according to the Daily Iowan.

Although the votes are entirely

ceremonial and carry no legislative weight, the Board of Regents was quick to respond.

Rastetter said the regents spoke to stakeholders across the state and took into account their recommenda-tions for the qualities required in the next UI president.

“After listening to all stake-holder feedback as well as having frank conversations with each of the candidates, the Board unanimously thought Bruce Harreld’s experience in transitioning other large enterprises through change, and his vision for re-investing in the core mission of teach-ing and research, would ultimately provide the leadership needed,” Rastetter said.

After the regents narrowed the president search to four candidates, Harreld, a former IBM and Kraft Gen-eral Foods executive, received only 1.8 percent approval from the university’s faculty and a 2.6 percent positive response from the entire university.

The other three candidates each

had about a 90 percent approval rat-ing.

Rastetter said in a press release he was disappointed in what he be-lieves is the UI faculty’s commitment to the past.

“We are disappointed that some of those stakeholders have decided to embrace the status quo of the past over opportunities for the future and focus their efforts on resistance to change instead of working together to make the University of Iowa even greater,” Rastetter said.

UI professor Kembrew McLeod has been an outspoken critic of Har-reld’s hiring.

In an opinion piece for Slate.com, the communications studies profes-sor blasted the errors on Harreld’s ré-sumé, as well as his poor performance at his first public forum Sept. 1.

“They didn’t listen to campus community when deciding on the next president,” McLeod said. “It’s pretty clear they picked who they wanted to be president.”

in their dealings with international agreements.”

Paul said he was not “positive” what would happen next in the Senate related to the agreement.

Right now, anything Republicans bring up to disapprove of the deal needs 60 votes to pass, but Democrats have enough supporters of the deal to block any efforts to derail the deal.

Planned Parenthood fundingPaul has also been vocal in his

support to block any federal fund-ing for Planned Parenthood. While Republicans have long tried to take funding away from the organization, the newest effort comes after a series of videos showed employees discuss-ing methods for harvesting fetal tissue and organs.

“I think people aren’t quite un-derstanding this,” Paul said. “Con-gress’ job is to have the power of purse and it is to decide what to spend the money on and to attach rules and re-strictions on how the money is spent. I don’t think Congress has really done this much in the past few years.”

Paul said he thinks how the Sen-ate votes should be flipped around — requiring 60 votes to fund Planned Parenthood, instead of 60 votes to

defund it.“It’s not really about women’s

health [anymore]; we have commu-nity health centers that have been greatly expanded in recent years,” Paul said. “The only difference they have with Planned Parenthood is one, they don’t do abortions, and two, they have real doctors that can do every-thing Planned Parenthood does.”

Once again, Senate Democrats are likely to block any measure to pull federal money from the organization, and President Obama is likely to veto any effort that passes Congress.

“I think with taxpayer dollars we shouldn’t have them going to some-thing that many find objectionable,” Paul said.

Education policyPaul echoed what many of his Re-

publican colleagues have said regard-ing the rising price of college, which is that government involvement in edu-cation and the student loan industry contributes to rising costs.

“If you think through any [situa-tion] where someone says they’ll give a free, say a free car, free college or a free house, it sounds good at first,” Paul said. “The problem is that some-one has to pay for that. If I give you a free college education, [everyone else] will pay taxes to send you to college.”

Paul said he does not like the rising cost of college tuition, adding we need to get to the “root cause” of the problem.

“Why is almost every sector of our economy having declining costs with competition?” Paul said. “You could make the argument that government is involved in a great way, subsidizing demand by giving an extraordinary amount of government assistance to those going to school. They subsidize the demand, but when you keep the supply constant, the supply-demand curve says costs will rise. Government is part of the problem in costs.”

Cy-Hawk predictionPaul will be tailgating before

Saturday’s annual Cy-Hawk football game, set for a 3:45 p.m. kickoff in Ames.

He is set to appear at noon in lot S-7, east of Jack Trice Stadium.

“I’m for Iowa and Iowa State,” Paul said. “I’m being a good politi-cian. So when Iowa has the ball, I’m going to root for Iowa, but when Iowa State has the ball, I’m going to root for Iowa State.

“Is that a good political answer?” Paul joked.

Paul will also attend three Iowa events this weekend in Indianola, Marshalltown and Nevada.

“I really value our staff,” Leath said.

He said the staff and faculty are a potent part as to why students choose and stay at Iowa State.

Leath said the recent approval by the Board of Regents for a $100 tuition increase for in-state students is to help make the student growth more manageable.

“Access with affordability without quality is no bargain,” Leath said.

Leath said the $100 increase per in-state student will total about $2.5 million more per year and will allow for some immediate concerns on growth to be resolved.

“I assure students we’ll use it wise-ly,” Leath said.

Leath said he wants the univer-sity to continue to try to lower student debt and raise scholarship funding through the Moving Students Forward program.

The program has a five-year plan to raise $150 million in new student scholarship money. Leath said they have decided this year to raise the goal to $200 million. With the growing enrollment, Leath was hopeful Iowa State would receive more funding from

the state.“We had a very, very challenging

legislative session this year,” Leath said.

Leath and others worked to try and implement performance-based funding this past summer, which would have provided Iowa State with more funds, but those efforts were unsuccessful. Funding did go up, but Leath said it didn’t increase by what the university had hoped for.

Leath said plans for the next leg-

islative session include an increase in faculty and staff salaries and a request for $8.2 million in recurring money in addition to what the university already receives.

“I think we have a strong, strong case here at Iowa State for that larger request,” Leath said.

The increase in enrollment is also affecting the teacher-to-student ratio.

“Our student-to-faculty ratio jumped more than 46 percent,” Leath said.

That ratio went from 13-to-1 to 19-to-1. Leath said a more ideal goal would be 16-to-1. During, the past three years, there have been 365 faculty hired as well as 120 this year, but due to the growing enrollment the student-to-faculty ratio has not budged.

With the high enrollment, Leath said the university needs more resourc-es. Iowa State secured $40 million from the state as well as a $20 million gift to build a new student innovation center.

Other new resources will include a more developed research park, a new 780-bed residence hall, an ad-ditional dining hall and a growing and improved Campustown. Also on the agenda is repurposing the former TV studio and communications building into more studio space for the College of Design and a four-story addition to Bessey Hall.

DELICIOUSNESS THAT’S SURE TO SCORE

“Little Brother is grow-ing up.”

ISU athletic director Jamie Pollard uttered these words with a smile while standing on the second floor of his monument to ISU football — the Sukup South End Zone Club — only days before the 2015 season began.

Little Brother, the term co-opted by some Hawk-eye fans lent a pejorative connotation by its most commonly applied inflec-tions, has become a clichéd insult.

An insult hurled ob-noxiously between drunk-en patrons inside Iowa City,

Des Moines and even Ames bars and littered through-out combative tweets and F a c e b o o k p o s t s o f t h e Hawkeye football faithful, who also favor referencing

the Cy-Hawk matchup as “Iowa State’s Super Bowl.”

In the week leading up to the annual showdown on the gridiron between Iowa State and Iowa, the nega-tive characterization of the Cyclones as a collective unit gets even more play.

Now personally, I love my little brothers. But in this rivalry there is no love lost, and at least one Cy-clone is taking exception.

“It makes me laugh, literally, because how does the little brother beat the big brother three out of four times?” asked run-ning back Tyler Brown. “We should get more respect

in our state, but respect is earned, so we’re going to go out and earn it.”

But haven’t the Cy-clones earned it already?

Long past are the days of perennial Hawkeye dom-inance on the football field. From 1983-97, Iowa won 15 consecutive matchups against its in-state rival, but since then the series has belonged to the Cyclones.

“I was a part of that era. I came in on the tail end of it, but I was a part of it,” said ISU coach Paul Rhoads, who served as an assistant with the Cyclones beginning in the mid-’90s. “[Then-coach Dan Mc-

Carney] made this game a priority to this football program and this athletic department when he got here.

“ T h a t 1 9 9 8 v i c t o r y changed the course of not only the series but I believe the fortunes of this pro-gram to an extent.”

That change has per-sisted. As Brown — the red-shirt sophomore who will take his first handoff in the Cy-Hawk series Saturday — stated clearly, the Cyclones have won three of the last four contests between the teams.

And since the win in 1998, Iowa State has cap-

tured 10-of-17 games in the series.

“That was a time in the state where you drove across the state, [and] the tire covers were Hawk-eye tire covers. The bum-per stickers were Hawk-eye bumper stickers. The backboards were Hawkeye backboards,” Rhoads said. “And that’s what we were battling, not only on the field, but that’s what we were battling in the recruit-ing as well.

“ Y o u w e r e t a l k i n g about the kids that we were recruiting had never seen

Success in Cy-Hawk pushes Cyclones to brink of ‘adulthood’

Iowa State DailyJunior linebacker Jordan Harris celebrates after winning the Cy-Hawk Series at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City on Sept. 13, 2014. The football team is testing different defensive schemes to find the right strategy for Iowa.

DEFENDING

THE TROPHY

Last season was hard for linebacker Jordan Harris.

After transferring to Iowa State from Copiah-Lincoln Com-munity College in Mississippi, where he was named to the Na-tional Junior College Athletic Association’s second-team All-America team, Harris was forced to redshirt his initial season at Iowa State.

Now a year later, Harris is back on the gridiron, and he’s loving every minute of it.

“I was smiling a lot,” Harris said. “I was happy to finally be on

the field.”Harris started at linebacker

for the Cyclones last week in their 31-7 win against Northern Iowa. The Clarksdale, Miss., native fin-ished the game with nine tackles, tied for the most on the team.

His success on the field last weekend impressed redshirt sophomore safety Kamari Cot-ton-Moya, who had nothing but praise after playing with Harris for the first time.

“Jordan Harris is good, one of the best players on our de-fense,” Cotton-Moya said. “He helped out the front line and helped out the linebackers and even helped out the secondary more than we could [have] even imagined. I’ll be looking forward

for him to be playing more and more.”

Both Harris and Cotton-Moya aided the ISU defense in limiting Northern Iowa to just 126 rushing yards and 176 pass-ing yards last week. But more importantly, they did so in a new three-man front.

The Cyclones started the game in a 3-4 formation, with three linemen and four lineback-ers — something the coaches said throughout the summer they would like to incorporate more.

While Iowa State essentially shut down the Panthers offen-sively with the new formation, redshirt junior linebacker Jarnor

GOOD COPvs. BAD COP

It was nearly one year ago when ISU kicker Cole Netten split the uprights at Kinnick Stadium to give the Cyclones the lead and the eventual win — propelling Iowa State to its third Cy-Hawk trophy in four sea-sons.

Both teams enter the game 1-0 as Iowa defeated Illinois State 31-14 Saturday just before Iowa State went on to take down Northern Iowa 31-7 that night.

Both sides present val-id cases as to why they’ll win, but it’s the accrued momentum and additional experience of the Cyclones that should trump what the Hawkeyes bring to the table.

Iowa State is coming off a disappointing 2-10 season. Naturally, expectations were low entering the 2015 sea-son, but for the ISU football players, motivation is high.

Considering the open-ing five matchups for the Cyclones — Northern Iowa, Iowa, Toledo, Kansas and Texas Tech — a 5-0 start is a real possibility.

Given the enhanced motivation, Iowa State isn’t likely to take the opportunity for granted any time soon.

2014 also marked the first time either school has won the Cy-Hawk series in consecutive years. As much motivation as the Hawkeyes have for revenge, the mo-tivation of the Cyclones to outdo Iowa as a school for the third year in a row will match it.

Although the Hawk-eyes employ a run-heavy offense, junior quarterback C.J. Beathard will still have to play a large role if the Hawks hope to have a chance.

But Beathard has yet to make an appearance in a Cy-Hawk matchup, leaving him, in terms of experience, ill-prepared compared to ISU quarterback Sam Rich-ardson.

Regardless, history can attest to the fact that this contest, most likely, will be close. Three out of the last four games were decided by just a field goal, and the fourth? Just six points.

Netten, despite his struggles against Northern Iowa, 1 for 3 on field goal at-tempts, displayed his ability to execute in the clutch last season in Iowa City. Look for Netten to be under the spotlight again in the wan-ing seconds of this year’s Cy-Hawk matchup.

Prediction: Iowa State 24, Iowa 21

Cyclone and Hawkeye fans have spent much of this week trash talking and forming arguments about why their team is better, but recent history of the Cy-Hawk matchup shows it’s virtually a tossup.

Three of the last four games have been won by a field goal, and the other was won by a whopping six points. The road team has won the last three match-ups.

Iowa owns the all-time series record 40-22, but that’s counting a dominat-ing stretch of 15 straight wins. In recent years, the Cy-Hawk showdown has proved highly competitive.

Last season’s game was claimed by the Cyclones, courtesy of Cole Netten’s foot, and an untimely Iowa timeout. Given the close-ness of the last four outings, that may be the scenario yet again.

Netten, however, had a shaky season opener, hit-ting on only one of his three attempts.

The ISU offense also struggled at times against Northern Iowa. The Cy-clones started on the right side of the 50-yard line four times in the first half and only produced 10 points.

They figured it out in the second half, but what happens when the Cyclones face a Big 10 defense in-stead of an FCS defense? Opportunities to start in enemy territory can’t be squandered.

The same question can be asked of how the Cy-clones’ defensive unit will fair against an Iowa offense that is superior to UNI’s.

The ISU defense shut down a UNI offense that had lost former running back and Cyclone killer Da-vid Johnson to the NFL.

That likely won’t be the case against Iowa quarter-back C.J. Beathard.

Iowa didn’t play a per-fect game in week one ei-ther, but like the Cyclones, they looked solid.

When the two teams meet up Saturday afternoon in Ames, it’ll likely be an-other close game that could come down to whoever has the ball last.

It’s a toss-up, but the road team has won the se-ries the last three matchups, and it wouldn’t be surpris-ing if Iowa finds a way to continue that streak.

BY THE NUMBERS

GAME INFO

THE PICK Iowa State vs IowaIowa 24, Iowa State 21

As a former Hawkeye and current Cyclone, this game has been contributing to my chronic heartburn for a couple of decades now.

A fan for most of my life, I’ve engaged previously in the social media trash talking that makes this rivalry so delicious. Now, as a majestically neutral reporter with a mountain of integrity that would tower over whatever landfill now serves as the highest point in Iowa, I find myself removed from the animosity of it all.

Clear eyes, full heart, can’t lose — primarily because I have no rooting interest. You can’t lose if you don’t play. OK, I’ll stop quoting iconic TV shows.

On Saturday, Iowa State and Iowa will play, however, and as the paradigm demands, there MUST be a winner and a loser.

My tendency is to lean toward the Cyclones. Winners of three of the last four and playing inside the new Jack Trice Stadium, circumstances appear to align in favor of the cardinal and gold.

But that’s the thing about this rivalry. None of that matters. The last three Cy-Hawk matchups have gone to the road team. The betting-line underdog wins so frequently because in reality, there is no underdog. Nor is there a favorite.

Throw the records along with which team won the recruiting battle in the state over the last few years off the rooftop of Friley and watch them shatter in their brittle irrelevance.

This game will come down to one thing: who wins in the trenches. Both defenses are solid, but Iowa’s offensive line is more equipped to deal with what the Cyclones bring on defense than vice versa. To me, it’s that simple.

Now, Beathard could chuck four interceptions and turn the whole damn shindig on its head, but I don’t see it going down like that. If Iowa State had a few more game-ready offensive linemen, I’d pick the Clones.

But they don’t. And that will be the difference.

Iowa 24, Iowa State 17The final scoreline in Iowa State’s season-opening 31-7 rout of Northern Iowa on Saturday night

may have ISU fans excited.But I’m not fooled.The Cyclones’ first half was inconsistent at best. Falling behind 7-0 early, Iowa State squeaked

out a 10-7 lead by halftime, entering the locker room with a litany of concerns.The running game exploded on the first drive of the game, with redshirt sophomore Tyler Brown

going 34 yards on the first rush from scrimmage. Following the opening drive, the ground game was barren, and Brown didn’t log another carry until the second half.

The defense that impressed late in the game didn’t get going until the middle of the second quarter.

It’s not that Iowa State isn’t talented enough, my concerns stem from the inconsistencies.On the other side, Iowa romped Illinois State in its season opener. But unlike Iowa State, Iowa

dominated throughout the game.This one will be close, like all rivalries, but Iowa will sneak one out in Ames.

Iowa 31, Iowa State 27Look, I get it.Iowa State won tits first season-opener in three years — pretty handily too. And sure, the

culture around this year’s team is different than I’ve ever seen before.But I still have plenty of questions. While Iowa State impressed on both sides of the ball,

it did so inconsistently. The run game came in patches, the defense couldn’t seem to stop UNI quarterback Aaron Bailey from running the ball and the offensive line struggled to protect quarterback Sam Richardson — let alone provide the run game consistent assistance.

And sure, the Hawkeyes have their own problems, too.But in their opening bout with Illinois State, the Hawkeyes had 431 total yards of offense,

exactly double that of Illinois State. The run game impressed, and quarterback C.J. Beathard averaged a hearty 8.8 yards per pass (and ran for two touchdowns).

The Hawkeyes simply didn’t have an issue — at any point in the game — taking care of business.

So while it’ll be close for a while, because nearly all rivalry games are, Iowa is just the better team. There is no doubt about it.

(And come on, did you really expect me to pick this one differently?)

Iowa State 31, Iowa 24I’ve returned to bring the sports desk back to mediocrity! Unfortunately, I have a wordcount.Now I don’t know much about much these days, but I do know what to expect from this game.

Paul Rhoads and Kirk Ferentz will exchange pre-game pleasantries, surrounded by photographers snapping away as Kirk feverishly chews his gum and Paul tries out a new joke. Iowa will then go up early in the game, per usual, only to fall in the fleeting seconds.

Then some in the Iowa fan base will take to their keyboards using their outdated and misguided rhetoric to tweet, blog and write columns about the “little brother” and “Iowa State’s Super Bowl”. However, last I knew 36,001 was a bit bigger than 32,150 and if we’re talking about Super Bowls, then Iowa somewhat resembles the Buffalo Bills of the early 1990s.

Matchup to watchThe 2015 chap-

ter of the Cy-Hawk rivalry will boil down to one match up: the offensive line of Iowa State and the defen-sive line of Iowa.

The ISU O-line must create more room for its three young running backs to operate than it did against Northern Iowa, and at the same time protect quarter-back Sam Richard-son, who was sacked f o u r t i m e s b y t h e Panthers.

A balanced at-tack will be required to keep a stout Iowa defense honest. The Cyclones committed to the run game going

against UNI, rush-ing the ball 32 times. But for all their ef-forts, they produced only 77 yards on the ground. The level of inefficiency that accompanies a 2.4 yards-per-carry av-erage heaps far too much pressure on the ISU passing game, which for the second consecutive week must contend with a talented secondary more equipped than most to bottle up the ISU corps of wide receivers — at least long enough for UI defensive end Drew Ott and company to close in on Richard-son.

Jones said the team isn’t yet satisfied with its perfor-mance.

“Assignment-wise, I don’t think we did as well as we thought we did,” Jones said. “We got the win but assignment football, it wasn’t there, and we know that. I don’t think we sur-prised ourselves at all. If anything, I think the win kind of took away what we should have [done] with execution things.”

The Cyclones didn’t abandon their traditional 4-3 formation of four de-fensive linemen and three linebackers. The four-man front made an appearance in the game at times, but ultimately it was the three-

man front that worked the best last Saturday.

With Iowa looming on the schedule, ISU coach Paul Rhoads said the de-fense is going to need to shake things up a bit.

“You’re not going to survive in a three-man front against that type of of-fense,” Rhoads said. “You’ll see both varieties on Satur-day, and three-man stuff you’ll see meshed up as we deem necessary.”

The Hawkeyes rushed for 210 yards in their sea-son-opening 31-14 win against Illinois State last weekend. LeShun Daniels totaled 123 yards on 26 car-ries, while Jordan Canzeri added 28 yards and a touch-down on his five carries.

Q u a r t e r b a c k C . J .

Beathard had a big day too. He completed 15 of 24 pass-es for 211 yards through the air and picked up 26 yards on the ground, rushing for two touchdowns.

“It’s a different style of football,” Rhoads said. “You’re going to see two tight ends, you’re going to see two backs. You’re going to see downhill football. You’re going to see power football.”

So it sounds like the Cyclones will be returning to their traditional four-man front for the Cy-Hawk game in an effort to curtail the Iowa offense.

Or will they?W h e n n e w s b r o k e

earlier in the week about Iowa State’s plan to switch between defensive fronts,

social media and message boards blew up. Many fans seemed skeptical, even wondering if the Cyclones were attempting to deceive their in-state rival.

And when asked if the Cyclones were planning to show some of the 4-3 set this weekend, defensive co-ordinator Wally Burnham had a very short response.

“You want me to give you my game plan?” he asked. “Next.”

So with no real answer given by Burnham or any other coaches, fans will have to wait until kickoff to see how the ISU defense lines up.

That means, though, that Iowa State will most likely have to work on both formations this week in

practice, something it has been doing since the start of fall camp.

Cotton-Moya admits that it was hard at first to have to work with both schemes during fall camp. After a while, though, he said it got a lot easier.

“It was kind of confus-ing at first,” Cotton-Moya said. “With the coaches’ help, they led me in the right way and led the whole defense in the right way and put us in the right position to be able to play fast.”

Fans can expect to see both defensive setups this weekend, and Harris isn’t concerned with switching between both formations. He likes them both.

“I’m kind of half and half,” Harris said. “I think

both of them set up for the linebackers and the safe-ties. The safety gets more freedom in the 3-4, but I like the 4-3 too.”

And in reality, Harris and the rest of the defense aren’t as focused on how they’re l ined up. Their main goal is just to keep the Hawkeyes’ powerful offense at bay.

And keep the coveted Cy-Hawk trophy in Ames for another year.

“We just keep trying to win, keep trying to keep the trophy here at home,” Cotton-Moya said. “Both teams are good. We know we’re good and we know they are a great team as well. We’re just trying to keep winning and doing what’s right to win.”

Iowa State beat Iowa. They couldn’t recall a victory.”

While not as lopsided as it once was, Iowa still routinely out-recruits Iowa State, both inside of Iowa and in general terms. The Hawkeyes have also con-sistently won more regu-lar-season games than the Cyclones throughout the Rhoads era and for several years previous.

Despite a smaller ven-

ue, less recruiting prowess and less overall success, Rhoads has held his own at 3-3 in the series during his tenure at the helm.

And isn’t that what this rivalry is actually about? The head-to-head aspect?

In that regard, over the last four seasons, the Cy-clones haven’t stood sec-ond to the black and gold. They haven’t been the Little Brother.

Iowa State’s enroll-ment exceeds the enroll-

ment in Iowa City by nearly 4,000 students. Pollard ex-plained more than 100,000 Iowa State alumni are living inside Iowa’s borders and only about 86,000 former Hawkeyes.

Pollard also said that of the 99 counties in the state, the majority of high school students in roughly 80 of them now indicate their affinity for Iowa State as a scholastic option above Iowa and Northern Iowa.

Throw on top of that

three wins in the last four meetings between the foot-ball teams, and the pejora-tive language spouted by some Hawkeye supporters appears to have gone the way of phrases like “Talk to the hand!” and “Oh no he didn’t!”

They’re out of date. And when you say them, you sound weird and old. Then dismayed, disgusted people slowly back away from you, eyes wide and hands raised, to avoid ridi-

cule by association.Iowa’s nickname is the

Hawkeye State, but sound the weather sirens because all signs over the past half decade point to this being Cyclone country — and I’m not just talking about Ames.

If the Hawkeyes can’t figure out a way to cor-rect their recent struggles against the Cyclones at 3:45 p.m. Saturday inside Jack Trice Stadium, Little Broth-er will officially assume the

mantle of top dog in Iowa.And Brown, excited

to step onto the field and contribute for the first time in this rivalry, couldn’t be happier about that.

“That’s what we’re hoping for,” Brown said.

One more win, and the Cyclones graduate to some new, more accurate and worthier moniker yet to be popularized and circulated.

One more win, and Little Brother will be all grown up.

TROPHY p5

GROWING p5

Redshirt sophomore Tyler Brown entered Iowa State’s football season opener with more experi-ence than any other running back on the roster, boasting a whopping 24 carries in his entire collegiate career.

Doubted throughout the preseason along with the rest of the running at-tack, Brown remained con-fident he could prove the skeptics wrong.

“I always play better with a chip on my shoul-der, and this is something to prove,” Brown said at ISU football’s media day. “That’s the best feeling you can have, when you prove someone else wrong and prove yourself right.”

That chip on his shoul-der fueled Brown’s first car-ry of the 2015 season.

Brown took the ball and spotted a hole through the left side of the line. He split it with force and found open field. He ran until Northern Iowa defensive back Jordan Webb caught up to him 34 yards later, making it the longest rush of Brown’s career.

Brown’s 24 carries, while limited experience to be sure, still aided his explo-sive first carry against UNI and the rest of his touches throughout the game.

“I felt more prepared than [the other running backs] did because those snaps helped me see how the game is in real life, and that was pretty helpful from the beginning,” Brown said.

The running backs behind him on the depth chart, redshirt freshman Mike Warren and true fresh-man Joshua Thomas, en-tered the game against UNI with zero carries between them.

Although the Cyclones finished off the season-opening win against the Panthers with a score of 31-7, the running game was one of the units that showed a lot of room to improve and didn’t match Iowa State’s elite passing game as well as it could have.

“I’d like to run the ball better,” said offensive coor-dinator Mark Mangino. “I thought we ran it well but not good enough for my liking.”

The team combined for 77 yards on the ground on 32 attempts, an aver-

age 2.4 yards per carry. Not including quarterback Sam Richardson’s four sacks, the team averaged 3.04 yards per rushing attempt.

Brown didn’t help the numbers much after his first rush of the game, registering zero rushing attempts until the third quarter.

Mangino said that was because Brown was banged up after the first offensive series, leaving him in an arm sleeve until he was ready to re-enter the contest.

In the interim, Warren and Thomas traded off at-tempts. Warren saw more carries in earlier downs but not many, averaging 3.2 yards on six rushes.

“There was no ques-tion ... we would have liked to get [Warren] more reps,” Mangino said. “I’m not wor-ried about him. The thing he

has going for him is he has ‘want to.’ He wants to get better, he’s always working at his game. He’s going to help us.”

Thomas saw the major-ity of his carries in short-y a r d a g e a n d g o a l - l i n e situations. His 5-foot-11, 224-pound frame paid divi-dends for the Cyclones in those scenarios and assisted in scoring the first and only touchdown on the ground Saturday night, punching the ball in from a yard out.

“ T h e t o u c h d o w n [Thomas] scored, we cut a guy loose, and he was ready to tackle him, and [Thom-as] ran right through him,” Mangino said. “That’s an encouraging sign, and I’m pretty excited about him.”

Mangino said the team plans to use Thomas in a similar role against Iowa.

“He’s the biggest back we have,” Mangino said. “When we need tough yard-age, we’ll give it to the big guy.”

Iowa State plans to use the three running backs against the Hawkeyes this weekend, but Brown will get the bulk of the carries early after his strong perfor-mance against the Panthers.

As it usually does, Io-wa’s boasts a stout defen-sive front, led this season by defensive end Drew Ott, who tied for sixth in the Big

10 in sacks last season.“I think it’s a typical

Iowa defense,” Mangino said. “They don’t beat them-selves. They don’t make a lot of mistakes. They’re a smart defensive football team.”

Brown has his own game plan to get the run-ning attack going — jump on the Hawkeyes before they jump on him.

“I need to get going ear-ly,” Brown said. “Hit them in the mouth early and keep going.”

Cyclones’ three-headed rushing attack can improve in rivalry against Hawkeyes

Will rushing need to be better to beat Iowa?The ISU rushing attack averaged 3.04 yards

per carry, not including sacks, during the team’s season-opening victory against Northern Iowa on Saturday night.

ISU offensive coordinator Mark Magino was impressed with redshirt sophomore Tyler Brown’s play but added, “We’ll need those other guys to play too and help out carry the load.”

Magino was asked if he thinks the ground game would need to improve to beat the Hawk-eyes on Saturday.

He doesn’t necessarily think so.“Whatever it takes to the win the game,”

Mangino said. “We’re not picky, we’ll [take] either. Maybe a little bit of both.”

The passing game did impress on the victory, averaging 11.1 yards per completion and scoring two touchdowns.

If the running game doesn’t improve, the passing attack could carry the offense.

“I don’t know,” Mangino said. “What if we pass for 400 to 500 yards?”

Cut U of I some slack; it’s had a rough year

Courtesy of Wikimedia CommonsKim Davis’ decision to refuse to issue marriage licenses to gay couples is a slap in the face to the Supreme Court’s decision and the separation between church and state, Columnist Heckle argues. Davis was not in jail for her religious beliefs; she refused to perform her job and broke the law.

Kim Davis’ actions criminal

The recent legal action against Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis has generated three reactions

from the public.One group believes Davis’ deci-

sion to refuse issuing marriage li-censes to multiple gay couples was an act of divinely-inspired religious martyrdom.

Others, including the Supreme Court, believe this religious privilege to discriminate is immoral and illegal.

The final group believes this doesn’t matter when looking at the bigger picture.

It’s understandable to believe that one clerk in Kentucky wouldn’t have an impact, but the butterfly effect of this decision to not allow discrimina-tion on the basis of religious beliefs will impact the country.

Davis argues that based on her religious belief her decision to refuse marriage licenses to gay couples in her county is her legal right. Davis’ lawyer, Mat Staver, appealed her arrest, saying that his client would be willing to is-sue licenses if her name and title were absent from the forms.

Furthermore, thousands of sup-porters, including presidential can-didates Ted Cruz and Mike Huckabee have come to her defense.

What supporters don’t realize is that Davis was not in jail because of her religious beliefs. She was being held in contempt of court after refus-ing to do her job and breaking the law.

Even right-wing heart throb Don-

ald Trump readily admitted that same-sex marriage is the “law of the land.” Yet his opponents in the Republican Party seem to struggle with the idea of legal consequences when it comes to using a public office to support bigoted, theocratic beliefs. Huckabee even made plans to visit Davis in jail.

This is a truly disturbing thought. Huckabee is now supporting someone who, after being ordered multiple times by federal court, refused to obey the law and used a public office to dis-criminate against gay couples.

The lack of respect for the doc-trine of the separation of church and state has no business coming from a presidential hopeful.

“What we end up having is the first example of the criminalization of Christians for believing in the tradi-tional definition of marriage,” Hucka-bee said in a public statement last Friday.

Davis’ job was to certify marriag-es, which, by constitutional definition, shall have no laws regarding religion.

Davis went on to refuse multiple couples, who per the Supreme Court , have the right to wed, on the basis of her religious prejudice. When con-fronted, she continued to disobey orders from state and federal courts until she was arrested.

Davis claims to be a beholder of family values and the guardian of tra-ditional marriage. This is rarely said of a three-time divorcee. When it comes to gay marriage, other biblical scorns like divorce take a back seat.

Davis has also had children out of wedlock and is remarried to her second husband. Yet she claimed in

a written statement that issuing these gay marriage licenses would go in the face of “God’s definition of marriage.”

Not only are supporters of Davis ignoring the law and the actual cause of her arrest, they are also either igno-rant or disingenuous about the kinds of “family values” possessed by Kim Davis.

On the relevance of this issue, what we are seeing now is the first step to end religiously-inspired discrimina-tion in public offices. The entire issue of gay marriage shows the environ-ment of religious privilege in the U.S.

The fact that the United States spent so long denying people equal rights on the basis of one religion’s belief exposes the cracks in the doc-trine of separating church from state. We are now seeing the first legal action against this blending of theocracy and democracy at a state level.

Davis is not being punished for practicing her religious beliefs. She can be a homophobic all she wants as long as it’s in private and not funded by taxpayers’ dollars.

This is not “Christian persecu-tion” or “gay privilege.” Persecution would be systematic discrimina-tion toward a group of people, much like how Christianity acted toward homosexuals for the majority of its existence.

The Supreme Court has given a group of people who are no different than anyone else equal rights in the face of extreme prejudice. Kim Davis’ immoral attempts to deny gay mar-riages flies in the face of the Supreme Court’s decision and the separation between church and state.


LETTER TO THE EDITOR

No pity for students who are drowning in debt

Dear Mr. Snyder,I read, with great interest,

your op-ed titled “Why free tu-ition is a necessity” and am sim-ply dumbfounded you chose to use the word “free.”

Your solutions to give “free” tuition to students are not even close to free and to use that word is misleading and disingenuous.

Why should students not pay in order to become more highly educated? The cost of higher education is typically recouped with higher-paying

jobs but let’s face it, not every-one who receives a four-year degree gets a job within their field of study or, for that matter, a job at all.

This is the way of the world. Would you extend the scope of “free” tuition to include a guar-antee of a job upon graduation? If so, how would you pay for it? Further reductions in military spending? Re-shifting of funds from the prison system leading to early paroles and more crime?

That is, quite simply, the law of unintended consequences.

I would have rather you proposed a thorough review of the entire budget with a win-

nowing out of wasteful pro-grams that President Obama promised but failed to do.

There is no free lunch, Ste-phen.

I feel sorry for those who are saddled with excessive debt after college, but make no mistake, those individuals knew what they were getting into by attend-ing college.

Their student loans spelled out exactly what the terms and requirements were for both par-ties and to cry about it after the fact is immature.

If I bought a house that was too big for my budget because I thought I’d be making more

money down the road and it doesn’t happen, I would have no one to blame but myself when the bank forecloses on my prop-erty.

In closing, you are correct in stating there is nothing forma-tive or glamorous about living in debt.

It is clear to me, however, that the majority of those in that situation arrived there primarily from their own poor decisions such as attending college with-out sufficient funds while at the same time drinking three to four nights a week while surfing the web on their iPhones and eating out way too much.

By Gary Youngberg,Ames resident

The idea of divorce becom-ing an easy escape from mar-riage is quickly changing the fundamental ideals of some of the world’s largest icons.

With powerful figures such as Pope Francis allowing an-nulments, divorce services are becoming easier and cheaper for the public.

An annulment is a state-ment that says a marriage never happened.

Divorce is becoming too much of a commodity in today’s society, with things like “divorce selfies” and the pope changing the fundamentals of the oldest church in the world.

They are quickly making

the idea of marriage and healthy relationships a mockery to the common person.

Divorced couples take self-ies, featuring divorce papers, that “commemorate” their split.

Something that is sup-posed to be a devastating and heartbreaking situation is being described by reporters such as Caitlin Dewey of the Washing-ton Post as happy and full of life.

Divorce parties have also become a trend. These par-ties glamorize the split from a spouse, the person you said you would spend your whole life with.

I remember my grand-mother constantly telling me stories about when she was young, and how it was stressed at that time if they chose to get married, they had to stick with it unless there were dire con-

sequences of staying together. Not only was it a norm, but

I strongly believe that the soci-ety we had back then really did value trying to work out difficult situations opposed to running away from them.

Our society has allowed its people to run away from their problems.

Delia Gallagher, senior editor for “Inside the Vatican” magazine, and Daniel Burke, religion editor for CNN, said Pope Francis, the leader of the Roman Catholic Church, has begun to radically change the way Catholics may receive an annulment.

Many in the church con-sider the old way of filing for an annulment long, tedious and quite costly, but isn’t that the point? The purpose for having the process being troublesome

is to prevent the amount of impulse annulments stemming from marital spats.

The purpose of marriage isn’t what it used to be. The leader of one of the most in-fluential establishments in the world is essentially going against a huge fundamental ideal of the church he runs, which is to preserve the sanctity of marriage.

The act of divorcing should be seen as a sad, and maybe even a depressing act.

But it isn’t with current trends like divorce selfies and influential figures like Pope Francis changing the idea of how easy it should be to get out of a marriage. Our culture has made healthy relationships seem like a distant reality and presented us with a divorce society.

We now live in a divorce society

The University of Iowa has had a rough year.

We’re not sure, but it might have started when Cole Netten kicked a game-winning field goal against the Hawkeyes last year, winning the Cy-Hawk football game 20-17.

Their confidence was shaken even more when Georges Niang then blew a stick-it-to-’em kiss at the Iowa fans as the Cyclones rolled to a basketball victory.

Not long after, the University of Iowa lost its president.

Then they weren’t happy with the new one.

And finally, the Iowa Legislature lowered its allowance for the year.

We get it; it’s been rough for the Hawkeyes.

So maybe the Board of Regents is cutting them some slack by not rais-ing their tuition rates next semester and asking the Legislature for an extra $4.5 million to funnel to Iowa. Be-cause maybe the Board thought they couldn’t handle the year without it.

Of course they knew we could, because we told them we could.

We, referring to students of Iowa State, as well as student at the Univer-sity of Northern Iowa, told campus leaders we would be OK with a slight tuition increase this spring semester provided that the money somehow went toward alleviating the pressures that our 36,001 record-enrolled stu-dents have wrought.

So when the Board of Regents an-nounced tuition numbers Wednesday, we weren’t surprised to see the spring 2016 undergraduate resident rate increase by $100 for Iowa State and Northern Iowa.

Iowa students won’t see a tuition increase because at Wednesday’s board meeting, the Iowa Student Government president, on behalf of the student body, called for a tuition freeze for Iowa students, saying:

“That extra $100 could mean a month’s worth of groceries, a quarter of a month’s rent or money for text-book rentals, a cost that’s consistently increasing.”

We have groceries to buy. We have rent to pay. Textbooks are just as expensive for us.

But maybe we should cut Iowa students some slack. They’ve had a bit of a bumpy road this year.

For one, their president left them, and they aren’t too big of a fan of the new head Hawkeye, Bruce Harreld, a businessman the Board of Regents selected last week to be the university’s 21st president.

The Iowa Faculty Senate then issued a vote of no confidence in the Board of Regents. The Iowa under-graduate and graduate student govern-ments followed suit later that night.

What’s more is that prior to the presidential search the board this sum-mer hoped the Iowa Legislature twice suggested budgets that would funnel money away from UI.

You could imagine the Hawkeyes weren’t too keen on that idea.

Then regents unanimously ap-proved giving Iowa an extra $4.5 mil-lion in increased appropriations in its new legislative request, which sends a mixed message.

The students are saying the uni-versity can afford not to raise tuition, which would have given the university an additional $1.2 to $1.4 million.

But the university says it needs four times more than an increase in tuition would have granted it.

It’s in such a rut it had to hire a businessman to claw its way out, or so says the Board of Regents.

Such a rut that it could almost make us feel bad when we run over its football team Saturday.

Almost.

The ISU women’s soccer team has a big weekend ahead of it.

The Cyclones square off Fri-day night against the Hawkeyes in the Cy-Hawk rivalry in Iowa City. Iowa State opens its home schedule Sunday against North Dakota State.

But the Cyclones are focused on taking the labels off the games, setting their sights instead on sim-ply winning the weekend.

The matchup with Iowa is just another game for Iowa State.

“Each game means more as you’re going toward the end of the season. And it just helps build confidence for us as we are going into the Big 12,” said ISU head coach Tony Minatta. “We want to win every game, so there’s no real added motivation. The mo-tivation for us is to play the best we can possibly play every game. I don’t feel we’ve done that as a

team yet.”Until last year, when Iowa

State beat Iowa for the first time since 2005 due to some late hero-ics by Alyssa Williamson, Minatta said it wasn’t really a rivalry.

“Gett ing a win last year [against Iowa] was the proverbial monkey off the back because I think going into those games knowing that you had lost every year kind of started weighing on the team,” Minatta said. “Now it’s done. We can focus more on the soccer piece instead of the emotional side of it.”

To win the Cyclones believe they must start strong and main-tain that level of play throughout the whole 90 minutes.

“Obviously we came off a tough loss this past weekend, but we’re really just looking to get another win,” said junior captain Madi Ott. “The rivalry is what it is, but we’re just focused on playing our best game and getting bet-ter, improving on the things we need to.”

The game against North Da-kota State in Ames will also pro-

vide an opportunity for Iowa State to pursue its stated goals.

“We just want to get another win on the boards, and doing that at home is a great feeling,” Ott said.

A l t h o u g h t h e C y c l o n e s ’ mindset is that their first home game is just another game, they want to show up in front of their fans and set the mark for teams coming to the Cyclones Sports Complex.

“[The first home game] is big because you actually get to play in front of your home fans and show that we appreciate all the support they have given us, even on the road,” Minatta said. “That helps build confidence and establish a standard for when the Big 12 teams come in. We want to be really tough to play at home. We want to win every game on our home field.”

The team’s focus remains on the task at hand — winning and improving every game.

“The ultimate goal is to get both wins,” Ott said. “We want to come out strong, start the game

strong, finish the game strong, play a total of 90 minutes, work hard for each other, clean up the things that we’re still working on and continue to get better.”

Iowa State will take on Iowa in the Cy-Hawk series at 6:30 p.m. Friday in Iowa City and North Dakota State at 1:00 p.m. Sunday in Ames.

Cyclones prepare for in-state rival Hawkeyes, home opener

ISU volleyball opens Cy-Hawk series against improved Iowa

It’s that time of year again — Cy-Hawk volleyball time.

The Cyclones, who traveled more than 1,000 miles last weekend to compete in Virginia, have a much less taxing schedule this weekend as they head to Iowa City to play in the Comfort Suite Challenge hosted by the Hawkeyes.

“It is Iowa,” said outside hitter Natalie Vondrak. “We got to beat them.”

Iowa State is coming off a weekend in which they went 2-1 at the Fairfield Inn and Suites Cavalier Classic in Charlottesville, Va. During the tournament, the Cyclones saw an increase in offensive production, which if they can sustain will come in handy

against the Hawkeyes.“Our passing was a lot more crisp,

and just our overall offensive ability was improved,” said ISU head coach Christy Johnson-Lynch.

Last year at Hilton Coliseum, the Cy-clones defeated the Hawkeyes in straight sets to claim victory in the Cy-Hawk rivalry game.

This time around, though, the Cy-clones will be not have the luxury of home-court advantage.

However, Iowa State is currently 4-0 under Johnson-Lynch while playing Iowa at Carver Hawkeye Arena.

And although the Cyclones swept the Hawkeyes last year, this season’s version of the in-state rivalry might last more than three sets.

“They are a better team this year com-

pared to past Iowa teams,” said senior libero Caitlin Nolan.

Nolan went on to note that Iowa has a strong slide attack, which is one of the hardest attacks in volleyball that a team can execute.

In simple terms, a slide attack is when the setter and the attacker make a late read on the blocker and then attempt to fake the defense out by changing the direction of the attack at the last moment.

Iowa State also needs to focus on win-ning instead of playing not to lose like it did against Virginia last weekend.

The Hawkeyes are not the only team the Cyclones will face this weekend. Iowa State will also take on No. 25 Texas A&M as well as the Milwaukee Panthers, the preseason favorites to capture the Horizon League.

The Aggies are one of the top hitting teams in the nation, ranking No. 34 in the country with a .269 hitting percentage.

“[Texas A&M] has great outsider hitters that just make plays,” Johnson-Lynch said.

Not only will the hitting percentage be a factor in the Texas A&M match, but Iowa State’s ability to combat the slide attack will be an area to watch in all three matches during the two-day Comfort Suite Challenge.

“Our main focus this week is playing against the slide attack,” Vondrak said. “And just being very sound defensively.”

Iowa State will kick off the challenge facing Texas A&M at 1:30 p.m. Friday at Carver Hawkeye Arena.

The Cyclones will then play the Hawk-eyes at 8 p.m. Friday, and the Panthers at 4 p.m. Saturday.

Iowa State DailyRedshirt senior quarterback Sam Richardson surveys the field during the Cy-Hawk game against Iowa on Sept. 13, 2014. The Cyclones defeated the Hawkeyes 20-17, and they have a chance to make it four wins against Iowa in five years at 3:45 p.m. Saturday at Jack Trice Stadium.

One game, the same as another

CY-HAWK SERIES INFO

The Cy-Hawk series was developed in 2004-05 pitting Iowa State against Iowa athletics. Academics weren’t added as a contributor until 2011.Each sport is worth two points with the exception of football, three points, and academics, one point.The 2014-15 season marked the first time either school claimed back-to-back titles, when Iowa State won its second consecutive Cy-Hawk title by a score of 15-11. Prior to that, the Cyclones and the Hawkeyes alternated victories.Here’s a look at how this weekend’s Cy-Hawk games will contribute to the 2015-16 series:Soccer — 6:30 p.m. in Iowa City: 2 pointsVolleyball — 8 p.m. in Iowa City, 2 pointsFootball — 3:45 p.m. in Ames, 3 points

The annual Cy-Hawk show-down between Iowa State and Iowa is just another game — at least the way ISU coach Paul Rhoads approaches it.

The coach acknowledges that the matchup between his Cyclones and the visiting Hawk-eyes, set for 3:45 p.m. Saturday inside Jack Trice Stadium, has a magnitude of meaning for players and fans alike.

However, Rhoads takes ex-ception to the notion that he or any other member of his pro-gram places more importance on beating Iowa than the other 11 challengers they stare down every season.

“That’s the furthest from the truth,” Rhoads asserted. “The

UNI game was the most impor-tant game on the schedule last week because it was the game we were playing. The Iowa game is the most important game this week because its the game we’re playing. Toledo will be next week, and that’s not coach speak.

“You’ve got to win games. And if you’re not focused on the game you’re playing and able to move on … then you’re not going to be successful as a program.”

Iowa State’s goals extend be-yond in-state bragging rights. The Cyclones have the opportunity to capitalize on a softer opening half of their schedule, which includes three home games — Northern Iowa, Iowa and Kansas — and two road tests against Toledo and Texas Tech.

Iowa is arguably the tough-est opponent in that stretch. For the Cyclones to find success for the fourth time in five seasons

against the Hawkeyes, their of-fense will have to be more ef-ficient than it was against UNI.

Iowa State’s defense and the special teams unit’s record night returning punts helped the Cyclones start four first-half drives inside the UNI 50-yard line. Those four drives, however, produced only 10 points.

The lack of production was due in part to a Quenton Bun-drage fumble, as well as inac-curacy on the part of kicker Cole Netten — who was the hero in the Cy-Hawk matchup last season, making a late-game field goal to seal the 20-17 victory — but who missed two kicks last Saturday against the Panthers.

“Our offense, in my eyes, was kind of a good news, bad news story,” said ISU offensive coordi-nator Mark Mangino. “The good news is our kids were able to over-come adversity and make plays

in key situations. The bad news is we created that adversity for ourselves, so we had to overcome our own mistakes. But everything is fixable.”

The offensive line also had its struggles against UNI, allowing four sacks and contributing to a rushing attack that fell well short of 100 yards gained.

The Iowa defense will pres-ent an even bigger challenge against the run, but right tackle Brock Dagel said that some of the noise around the Hawkeyes’ defensive line is just hype that can be overcome.

“Out on the outside, sure [Iowa’s defensive line] is good. Their two interior guys [Jaleel Johnson and Nathan Bazata], they’re good guys, but they’re not Carl Davis and they’re not Louis Trinca-Pasat [former Hawkeye players],” Dagel said. “There’s a lot of old guys on our offensive

line, and we know what we’re go-ing to get from them.”

Dagel added that he expects a jump in offensive line play from the team’s initial outing, espe-cially with the expected return of starting right guard Daniel Burton from a knee injury that sidelined him in the first game.

“We were a little all over the place,” Dagel explained. “We had our ups and downs in really all ar-eas of play, but I think it was a fac-tor of the first game thing. Maybe some jitters here and there.”

Dagel said he believes the Cyclones will be able to stow those jitters Saturday, even de-spite what the Cy-Hawk show-down means throughout the state.

After all, as far as Iowa State is concerned, the Hawkeyes are just another opponent, and Sat-urday is just another game — for the most part.

Vezeau was sat down by his teacher with the rest of his 2nd grade class and told that there was an attack.

“I certainly didn’t un-derstand the consequence or the magnitude of that at the time,” Vezeau said.

When returning home from school, he admitted that the attacks dominated most of the media showing footage, photos and inter-views in a desperate attempt to understand the event.

“This was something unusual,” Vezeau said. “We did know something im-portant, something big had happened.”

As time passed, Vezeau became fascinated with the politics surrounding events throughout history, includ-ing the acts of terrorism that happened in 2001.

“Emotionally, [Sept. 11] was very unifying,” Vezeau said.

Vezeau had a friend in his class who lost a family member in the attacks on the towers. During the one year anniversary, his friend made a presentation to their class and began to cry.

“That was eye open-ing,” Vezeau said. “We didn’t have that real-world connection at the time. It was something that was on TV… It just wasn’t real, if you will.”

Kyle Janssen, junior in business management and

president of Student Veter-ans of America, remembers leaving his middle school geography class and heading into study hall when the first tower was struck.

“It didn’t trigger a re-sponse right away because I wasn’t fully aware what was going to happen,” Janssen said.

However, he became more informed when he joined the military and par-ticipating in four years of ac-tive military, he recognizes

the importance.“A majority of … the

military, a lot of people sac-rifice from the Midwest as far as having family mem-bers that are in the military,” Janssen said. “I think they knew something was going to happen.”

He admits the differ-ence between generations that were present when his-tory is made compared to younger citizens who see it as a piece of America’s past. Janssen says, it is affecting

them enough to encour-age them to fight for our country.

“They are definitely understanding it enough that they are going at war or continuously in war in the

Middle East, and the reason for that all stemmed from 9/11,” Janssen said.

While he agrees that it did unify us the follow-ing decade, Janssen admits there has been tension

amongst citizens again, re-garding race and beliefs.

“9/11 brought everyone together, and now it seems like people want to separate everyone again,” Janssen said.

9/11 p1

Iowa State DailyFlags line the sidewalks around Central Campus for the 9/11 memorial Sept. 11, 2011. This year marks the 14th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks that targeted the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon in Washington using airplanes. Another attack was planned, but the efforts of passengers on board thwarted it.

Though many students seemed confused by the news, some felt it was nec-essary to support record growth at Iowa State this year.

Shaun Vanweelden, senior in software engineer-ing, and Kelsey Hrubes, sophomore in computer science, agreed the tuition increase made sense con-sidering Iowa State’s record enrollment.

“There’s a lot of growth that needs to happen at Iowa State to support all these new students,” Van-weelden said. “So I’m ac-tually pretty OK with [the increase].”

Vanweelden said he

was aware of the increase, but Hrubes had not heard about it yet.

“When you mentioned that there’d be an increase, I was thinking thousands of dollars,” Hrubes said. “But $100? I can breathe easy.”

Hrubes said the $100 would not have a huge im-pact on her budget.

“I make $100 impulse purchases sometimes so it’s not that big of a deal,” Hrubes said.

H r u b e s a n d V a n -weelden said that they could see students’ money being spent in the ongoing projects around campus, and they expected the in-creased funds to further benefit everyone at Iowa State.

“Even if it’s not help-ing me, I understand that there’s a lot more people here than just myself and my major,” Vanweelden said. “I think everyone needs a little support.”

The Board of Regents approved an increase for both ISU and UNI students but exempted the Univer-sity of Iowa at their stu-dent government leaders’ request.

Dan Breitbarth, Stu-dent Government presi-dent, was in favor of the tuition increase for ISU students.

“We’re proud to be the number one school in the state of Iowa not only in total enrollment but also in in-state enrollment as

well,” Breitbarth said. “With that comes particular chal-lenges that are positive challenges.”

Breitbarth said he rec-ommended a “minimal in-crease” for ISU students now to prevent a large hike in upcoming years.

“There are some re-sources that the university needs at the current mo-ment that we don’t have,” Breitbarth said. “Those resources could become available with financial backing.”

Breitbarth said the Thielen Health Center and on-campus dining services were just two examples of areas that could use addi-tional resources.

“I do serve on the Uni-

versity Budget Advisory Committee, and I have in-put on financial matters,” Breitbarth said. “I can make sure [the money is] des-ignated to the correct ac-counts and that that it’s going toward benefitting the students.”

Breitbarth said he con-sulted the 50 student gov-ernment delegates and 25 student leaders from the College of Business as to the soundness of the financial details before reaching the decision to advocate for the tuition increase. Each of the student representatives supported his decision, he said.

“I was pretty comfort-able and confident with the decision that I made,”

Breitbarth said. “In fact, it’s not even the decision that I made — it’s the decision the students made; it’s what they supported.”

B r e i t b a r t h s a i d h e hasn’t heard any feedback since the Board of Regents approved the increase, but he always welcomes com-ments and concerns from the students.

“I’m confident that I can alleviate their con-cerns,” Breitbarth said.

F o r s t u d e n t s c o n -cerned about the future of their finances at Iowa, Breitbarth said the Student Loan Education Office, lo-cated in 0680 Beardshear Hall, is available to help with financial aid questions and planning.
