Fall classes are beginning all over the St. Cloud area, and col-leges want to make sure students feel welcomed back to the com-munity.

Local schools have teamed together once again for the Welcome Students Campaign, a program designed to greet return-ing students, as well make higher

education’s presence known in the community. The schools involved are SCSU, St. Cloud Community and Technical College, Rasmus-sen College, Minnesota School of Business, College of Saint Bene-dict, and Saint John’s University.

Loren Boone, Assistant Vice President of Marketing and Com-munications at SCSU, gave some insight into how the program is funded, as well as its objective.

“Funding for the Welcome Students Campaign is shared

among the participating colleges,” he says. “This collaboration, which results in a large public presence including the banners along a busy state highway, lets visitors and the community know that the St. Cloud area is deeply committed to higher education.”

This campaign utilizes many forms of advertisement to greet returning students, as well as get word out to the community about classes beginning again. There are billboards, window clings at local businesses, and even banners and ÆWWZ�OZIXPQK[�I\�+ZW[[ZWIL[�+MV-ter mall. This year the campaign has expanded its presence in the community even further with 32 street light banners on Highway 23 in St. Cloud.

Adam Hammer, SCSU’s Director of Media Relations and Publications, also took time to talk about the Welcome Students Campaign. Hammer emphasizes the celebratory nature of this campaign, and how it makes com-ing back to school more of a fun experience for students.

“You never want coming back to school to be a downer. You want it to be something that’s celebrated by the community and by the university,” he says. “In essence, that’s a lot of what we’re trying to do here.”

The campaign is also about giving a heads-up to those who neighbor college campuses. SCSU sent out postcards to residents living near campus, letting them know school was staring soon. The postcards also warned about things that accompany school such as noisy events, as well as the ILLQ\QWVIT�\ZINÅK�\PI\�_W]TL�JM�QV�the area.

Another part of the Welcome Student Campaign is the Wel-come Booklet published by St. Cloud Times. It features paid

advertisements from many local businesses as well as the colleges themselves, which fund the print-ing and distribution. There are also many coupons and discounts available within. Students can pick one up in Atwood Memorial Center, as well as around the St. Cloud area in general.

1\¼[�VW\�LQNÅK]T\�\W�[MM�\PM�^Q-

sual impact the Welcome Students Campaign makes on the commu-nity. It would be almost impossible to miss all of the banners, bill-boards, and window clings around the community, as the program makes itself nearly omnipresent in the area.

‘Welcome’ campaign expands reach

Lance P. Pappenfus: i don’t even go to scsu and i went to campus and smoked today because it’s a stupid rule and they won’t do anything about it anyway

Vivek Lamsal: Saw people smoking.

Michael Jamnick: Nope. Won’t work.

Michael Jamnick: Oh, and remember how abortion used to be illegal? Because not a single one ever happened before Roe v. Wade.

Michael Jamnick: Not to mention that SCSU is a dry campus. Seriously, not a single drop of alcohol is in the dorms or anything.

Ben Blomgren: Prohibition worked exquisitely if memory serves...oh wait...

Ben Blomgren: Liberty, no matter how small or trivial, is the answer. Natural rights and the harm principle are key to understanding this concept.

Bill Jacobson: So we have a smoking bad with no real working value.

Bill Jacobson: the campus is full of city sidewalks and city streets. also when has criminals be stopped to not do a crime because of a sign or law... O yeah we have overcrowded jails and many repeat offenders.

Bill Jacobson: and all those people who smoked pot on campus, there was a rule saying you can not do that either. but they still do. There is a rule that i cannot bring food into Stewart 111. but you still do.

Ayriel Steffes: I have seen several people smoking on campus.

Karley Holmberg: my car is mine, I can smoke there, Barden Park isa city park, I can smoke there. So I haven’t smoked on campus, and probably wont.

Terence Glommen-McCloskey: The ban on lawful carry is working as well as hoped too. Colleges are the one place in the US that have not experienced any shootings.

Jeska Anderson: It wasn’t even working when they made smoking zones. I’m not there now, but I’m sure people are smoking- there is no enforcement!

Bethany Berthiaume: tons, actually. wish they weren’t.

Jacqueline Silseth: You mean if you make something illegal that doesn’t stop people from doing it? Tell me more about the war on drugs.

“Is SCSU really tobacco-free?

Are people still smoking on

campus? Cigarette butts

piling up? We want to know

if you think the ban is

working.”

Staff Report

New transportation op-portunities are opening up to attendees of all Vikings games at Mall of America Field in the Metrodome this season.

Both the Northstar Commuter Rail line and the Northstar Link Commuter Bus will provide service for the games, with special trains being added on game days to supplement the regular Northstar schedule as needed.

Unlike previous years, fans can now purchase single train tickets or a Family Pass train ticket online for game day.

In addition a Northstar roundtrip Family Pass, good for two adults and up to three children ages 6-17, can also be purchased online for $20, or less at the station, depend-ing on the location.

Fans arriving at Target Field through Northstar can either transfer for free to the Hiawatha light rail line or use buses for the remainder of their trip to Mall of America Field.

Bus times for the North-star Link bus service from St. Cloud or Becker connects with Northstar trains at the Big Lake Station.

At either the scheduled departure times or an hour after the end of a game, pas-sengers can ride the train to Big Lake and transfer to the connecting Northstar Link Bus to return to St. Cloud or Becker.

Bus rides, which are paid for separately from the train ride, cost between $1 and $1.50 one-way.

Game schedules and train fare information are available at metrotransit.org/vikings. The schedule for Route 887V, the Minnesota Vikings Northstar Link service, is viewable online at CatchThe-Link.com and on Link buses and Northstar trains.

were no Social Host Ordinances written.

“There has LMÅVQ\MTa�JMMV�I�[QO-VQÅKIV\�LZWX�QV�\PM�chaos since I was in school,” said Adam Hammer, director of Publications and Media Relations and is an SCSU alumn.

The total num-ber of individuals cited by the police was also the lowest it has been for Move-In Weekend since 2006. In 2010 there were 236 individuals cited with 41 percent being SCSU stu-dents. In 2011 there were 199 citations with 40 percent of them going to SCSU students. This year 161 total citations were written and 32 percent were SCSU students.

The Department of Residential Life has prepared the Move-In Weekend process in a similar way for the past eight years.

“We do an inten-tional job in going out in the com-munity and around campus to go and meet the students,”

said Dan Pedersen, director of Residen-tial Life. “It’s good to make sure there is an administrative pres-ence on campus.”

Residential Life coordinates with several key groups to make the transition of a few thousand people coming into St. Cloud move smoothly. The City of St. Cloud lends a hand as well as the St. Cloud Police Department. The Minnesota Depart-ment of Transporta-tion also helps direct \ZINÅK�NWZ�\PW[M�_PW�are new to the city.

<ZINÅK�Q[�LQZMK\ML�to K-Lot and stu-dents are allowed to move in between two hour blocks.

The last three years have been ¹ÆI_TM[[�º�IKKWZLQVO�to Pedersen.

For the weekend to move smoothly and safely, there must be full cooperation from the community.

“[Residential Life] does a tremen-dous job to drive down the amount of citations that hap-pen,” Pederson said.

SCSU collabo-rates with leasing companies in the ar-eas that house many students. Many leases now include a type of clause that could allow compa-nies to evict tentants if they throw large parties or cause enough damage.

A report provid-ed by the St. Cloud Police Department also showed a drop in charges for this Move-In Weekend.

In 2011 there was a total of 268 charges for the weekend. This year there were 187 total charges.

Of these charges there were 63 under-age consumptions and 75 open contain-er. There were also seven instances of ÆMMQVO�XWTQKM�WV�NWW\��Å^M�NIT[M�QVNWZUI\QWV�charges, three urinat-ing in public and six disorderly conduct. There were three charges of obstruct-ing legal process. One citation for pos-session of parapher-nalia was given out and one charge for marijuana in a mo-tor vehicle was given also. There were 21 arrests this Move-In Weekend.

Stearns County breaks ground on equestrian trailStaff Report

The ground has been broken for the new Soo Line equestrian trail open-ing in Stearns County.

<PM�ÅZ[\�XPI[M�WN �\PM�Dairyland Trail will build over six miles. When it is

completed the trail will stretch 26 miles from Brooten to Albany, cross-ing Elrosa, Greenwald and New Munich on the way.

The trail will connect at the Lake Wobegon Trail to continue going East.

Using an abandoned railroad to build on, the top will be covered with a limestone surface to allow for horse travel. Horse trailer lots will also be built on both ends to allow for easy access.

“Stearns County acquired this corridor in 1999, when it was no longer used by the railroad,” said Chuck Wocken, Stearns County Parks director at the groundbreaking ceremony. “Developing this trail is about building and connecting communities, creating an opportunity for healthy and prosper-ous neighborhoods and providing an opportunity for outdoor recreation and tourism.”

The project will cost an estimated $669,225 and will be completed by Voss Plumbing and Heating from Paynesville, Minn.

Though this trail will be designed for equestrian use, there will also be running, walking and biking allowed on the trail.

During the winter when the trail will be inaccessible on foot, snowmobiles will be permitted to travel on the trail.

The Dairyland Trail segment will be open by November to all equestrian riders, walkers, runners and snowmobile riders.

our heads’,” Haeg says. “But a lot of friends ended up helping us out, like some people who are not connected to production at all. I rounded them up and they’re like, ‘Okay!’. That was our crew for a while -- a lot of my NZQMVL[�NZWU�W^MZ�QV�\PM�ÅTU�LMXIZ\UMV\����IVL�\PMa�IZMV¼\�in production at all, but they just helped us out.”

The roots of UTVS En Español can be traced back even further to DeJesus’s high school, where he ran a Spanish-speaking show called “Tiger Talks” that became popular among his classmates. After graduating, DeJesus decided that he “[needed] to do something in college, something bigger than ‘Tiger Talks’.” After a stint of late-night boredom on Facebook, DeJesus pitched the idea to Jennifer Austin, UTVS’s former news director, who liked the idea.

“So it kind of developed from there,” DeJesus said, “and then after a month or two, they became really inter-ested because they knew it would help UTVS, the univer-sity, the students, and to create a more diverse audience. So yeah, that’s how it all started. I’m always looking for something to do, and this, so far in my life, has been the biggest project that I’m working on.”

“I gave birth to [UTVS En Español],” DeJesus said, “but there have been a lot of people that are collaborating with this and helping out. I’m extremely thankful for all the work the general manager from last year, Michael Girling, did. He was excited about it. He said, ‘We’re going to do

this before you graduate, I know its going to become some-thing big one day.’ We’re all really excited about the idea.”

“It’s been very touch-and-go. It’s totally a work in progress. We are working up until the minute that it airs,” Haeg said.

“If you’re a [native Spanish speaker] and you watch it, you know it’s not perfect at all. But we have so much fun doing it, and we’re growing a lot. I think we’re all getting better organized and everything.”

Noticias UTVS En Español’s team is actively looking for volunteers, and although Spanish speakers are encour-aged, it is not a requirement to have any knowledge of Spanish or broadcasting to help out with the program. For more information, visit UTVS’s website, utvsnewsnow.com.

Jarrod Wiggins, Student Government president, said students would not have seen any change this year as a result of passing the bylaws as they would not

have gone into effect until next year.

Other business of the meeting included approving the new executive board for this year. The new board was approved with eight votes in favor, none against, and three abstentions.

Wiggins said next week there will be 15 to 18 posi-\QWV[�_PQKP�VMML�\W�JM�ÅTTML�and they will be interview-ing for those positions. He encouraged all Student Government members to recruit during the coming days.

“I look for people who are better than myself,” Wiggins said.

Metro Bus proposed these fare increases.

What this means for students

The renovation conversation

�� 2010: Students voted down a $45 million Atwood renovation project 1,088 to 623.

�� 2011: Students voted down a $15 million Atwood renovation project 942 to 729.

�� 2012: A $5 million Atwood renovation project was added to the fee allocation budget by Student Government.

�� Student fees will increase by $1.33 per credit (up to 12 credits) beginning in Å[KIT�aMIZ������

- the Å[KIT�aMIZ runs from July 1 to June 30, and is determined by the year it ends, so students could see an increase as soon as next fall.

The Republican nominee for president this year will be Mitt Romney. However, there is a faction of people in the Republican Party who prefer Ron Paul to be the nominee.

The Republican Party and the media wanted to essentially wash these dissenting voices away, unfortu-nately for them, that was not the case. Supporters of Ron Paul come from a variety of people with differ-MV\�XWTQ\QKIT�INÅTQI\QWV["�:MX]JTQKIV[��LQ[MVNZIVKPQ[ML�Democrats, Libertarians, Anarcho-Capitalists, indepen-dents, anti-war activists, and people who just want real change on government (not Barack Obama bumper-sticker change).

The basic principles that Ron Paul has championed through 20-plus years as a member of the House, three presidential bids, and six published books are individual liberty and freedom, Austrian school free markets economics, a non-interventionist foreign policy, and a dramatically smaller non-abolishing intrusive federal government. This means getting rid of the federal reserve, the IRS, the Patriot Act, the TSA, the NDAA, and oppose to the fairly recent SOPA/PIPA legislation that would effectively censor the internet; all of those things are not generally views of either major political party.

In spite of all the advances Ron Paul has done to gain a following within the Republican Party, resulting in several state Republican Parties including Minnesota who are now ruled by Libertarian-leaning Republi-cans and brought delegates to the Republican National

Convention (RNC) to support Ron Paul. This became a problem for the Republicans in charge. The neoconser-vatives wanted the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Florida to be a PR stunt for how united and in support of their favorite empty suit, Mitt Romney, they are.

In order for this stunt to work, they would have to shut out any dissenting voices. So how did they do this? ?MTT��\PM�ÅZ[\�WJ[\IKTM�_I[�\ZaQVO�\W�OM\�:WV�8I]T¼[�VIUM�out of nomination. The rules have always been that a presidential candidate would be placed for nomination if that candidate wins a plurality of delegates in 5 states.

Ron Paul had a plurality of delegates in Iowa, Maine, Minnesota, Nevada, and Louisiana. The RNC proceeded to strip credentials from 10 elected Ron Paul-supporting Maine delegates in support of 10 non-elected Romney voting delegates which caused Maine Governor Paul LePage to boycott the event.

Even then, he had to number for nomination, so now what? Well the RNC changed the rules again, so that now you need eight states to get your name for nomination. This falls in line with the old phrase mov-ing the goal posts in the middle of the game. If Romney was going to win the nomination anyway,which he was, why do this?

By getting your name up for nomination the candi-date is allowed a nationally-televised 15-minute speaking spot. Certainly the RNC would not want that, consid-MZQVO�:WV�8I]T¼[�]VKWUXZWUQ[QVO��[WUM\QUM[�JZ]\IT�honesty that may have been too risky. Also, since Ron Paul did not extend an endorsement to Mitt Romney, it could have threatened the RNC.

The RNC did try to court the Ron Paul supporters

to vote for Romney, even after they completely screwed them and him over by changing the rules. In addition, they did not let him speak and made sure no grassroots-supported candidate can make any noise at future con-ventions (Rule 16, which basically binds all delegates so that no delegate can vote for their personal preference), by showing a 5-minute tribute video. This almost seems equivalent to your friend stealing your girlfriend and \PMV�\M`\QVO�aW]�\_W�LIa[�TI\MZ�¹PMa��_M¼ZM�KWWT�ZQOP\'º

No, RNC, we are not cool.Ron Paul has some unorthodox, sometimes contro-

versial, political views; but support him or not he still should have gotten a fair shot at the Republican Na-tional Convention, and the voice of his delegates should not have been shut out. This is not going over well with many Paul supporters.

Instead of growing the party and letting people in, the Republican Party is shrinking itself, and this in effect could cause Romney to lose the election in November as many Ron Paul supporters either stay home, write in Ron Paul, vote for Obama to spite Romney or vote for a candidate with similar views and Paul, which is Liber-tarian Party candidate Gary Johnson.

There has been a major increase in Ron Paul sup-porters since his 2008 election bid and since the 2008 housing market collapse, which Ron Paul predicted in 2001 with crystal ball-like precision on how and why it _QTT�PIXXMV��Q\¼[�WV�AW]<]JM���<PQ[�^W\QVO�JTWKS�Q[�VW\�going away. And with the race between Romney and Obama being so close, this may cause Gary Johnson to vastly grow his voting base and play spoiler as Mitt Romney loses the election.

I recently quit my job at a re-markably busy restaurant in order to focus on my remaining time in college. When I started working there last August I was thrilled to have some disposable income, but my scheduled hours steadily in-creased week after week until they reached unhealthy amounts.

By Spring semester I was running on overdrive. I worked

30 hours a week while taking 15 credits and volunteering from 6 to 9 a.m. at KVSC. The half hour breaks between commitments _MZM�\PM�WVTa�XTIKM[�1�KW]TL�ÅVL�solace amid tests, bustling manag-ers, and email responses. It was the most stressful scheduled time of my life.

My parents, who were at one point wondering if I would ever ÅVL�UW\Q^I\QWV�\W�OM\�I�RWJ��_MZM�now concerned that I was working myself into the ground. After a few months a friend of mine said he missed the more laid back and less stressed-out version of me. 1�[VIXXML�I\�PQU�\PI\�1�KW]TLV¼\�keep wasting my time laying around and doing nothing with my friends all the time any more. 1�_I[�Z]VVQVO�WV�Å^M�PW]Z[�WN �sleep and four cups of coffee for the fourth day in a row.

Perhaps I overreacted. I would ÅVL�Ua[MTN �I\�WLL�PW]Z[�WN �\PM�night sitting alone on my stoop with a 40-ounce bottle of malt liquor and three chain smoked cigarettes in my lungs wondering if I was wasting my time with col-lege. After all, I could make more

Perspective is learning your limitations -- learning the relative importance of things. Sometimes you have to push yourself to your TQUQ\I\QWV[�\W�ÅVL�W]\�_PI\�aW]�really want in life. I worked a lot at that time because I wanted money. There is nothing wrong with money, but sometimes you have to realize what it costs to make money. It cost me my grades, my relationships, a few minor addictions, and my mental health. It took me time to realize \PI\�UWVMa�Q[�VQKM��J]\�1¼L�ZI\PMZ�make the investment to get a job that I enjoy and suffer a little col-lege poverty now.

Tentative but soothing freshmen voices were heard from the PAC last Friday as auditions for concert choir were held in the basement. The 200-300 individuals sang a few bars in hopes that they would land one of the 70 spots. After students were welcomed to the audition they then had to match notes on a piano, try some sight singing, and do their best to serenade those listening with “My Country Tis of Thee.”

“We’ve heard it so many times,” chuckled Randy Olsen, president of the choir.

The SCSU Concert Choir is St. Cloud’s largest choir. They have trav-eled to Minneapolis on occasion and have gone as far as the renowned Carnegie Hall in New York to per-form their material that ranges from the 15th century to contemporary arrangements. Although the choir has a history of excellence, Olsen is especially excited for this year’s plans.

“This year we’ll have Craig Jes-sop from the Mormon Tabernacle Choir coming to help us with some exercises,” Olsen said. “We’ll also have Matthew Culloton and the Singers stopping by, who are well known by the choir crowd. Cantus, an all male a cappella group will stop by too. It’s our best looking list of guests that we’ve had in a long time.”

The Concert Choir is also mak-

ing a push to get more involved off campus. “A couple singers have started a side project. They’re plan-ning on performing at the St. Cloud Gay Pride festival on Sept. 20. It’ll JM�ÆI[P�UWJ�[WZ\�WN �LMIT�º

“We try to keep the alumni involved as well,” Olsen said. “They can’t sing in the choir since they are no longer students, but they can help out in the community, which is really what we’re all about as an organiza-tion.”

“Choir is very important,” Olsen elaborated. “Within the culture of choir there is a chance to be some-thing bigger than yourself.”

“It’s a really fun and comfortable atmosphere. My favorite part is the camaraderie,” added Lauren Mon-roe, a sophomore majoring in vocal music education.

Less than half of the participants in concert choir are music majors. “I’m a Mass Comm major and I’m the president,” Olsen said, “so it shows that all you need to have is a passion towards music.”

“It’s very heavily based on stu-dent involvement,” Olsen said. “The choir board is made up completely of students and all the volunteer op-portunities are pursued by students.”

The Concert Choir has over a dozen events planned for the year, beginning with a performance at Mainstreet on Sept. 5. More infor-mation on the choir can be found at www.facebook.com/scsuchoirs.

The band took the stage from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., as hundreds of people watched while relaxing in lawn chairs.

Local companies reached out to cus-tomers in a festival setting. Up and com-ing businesses like Dickey's Barbecue and the Hot Dog Guys, who can typically be seen downtown on the sidewalks around bar close, made their presence felt as they handed out sandwiches and drinks to those stopping by.

Some estimates put the total number of attendees per week over 10,000.

The context for the recently released “Premium Rush” seems a bit ridicu-lous if one were to take a step back. It is almost as if Hollywood had said, “Gee, we ran out of ideas for car chase scenes. Now what? Oh I got it! Let’s do it on bicycles!” It’s a pretty valid question of how bicycle stunts could stack up against Ferraris pulling high speed maneuvers, but Premium Rush pulls it off surprisingly well.

The movie opens with hotshot protagonist Wilee (played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) falling in slow mo-tion after getting smashed by a car while on his bike. Wilee works as a bike mes-senger in New York that carries an envelope that is a bit above his pay grade. The plot unfolds as Wilee delivers the envelope and \ZQM[�\W�ÅO]ZM�W]\�_PI\¼[�[W�important about it.

Premium Rush is an action movie, and like most

action movies the plot is nothing special. Gordon-Levitt plays his role well, though his character has been seen many times before. His no-breaks philosophy, dogged pursuit of adrenaline, and stylishly worn chain belt (seriously, I might have to get me one of those) give him the per-sona of a Dave Mirra you don’t want to mess with. The other host of charac-ters compliment him in ste-reotypical fashion. There’s Vanessa, who is a sucker for Wilee’s reckless outlook, then there’s Manny,the presumably steroid infused rival that will do anything to steal Wilee’s girl, and, to top it off, there’s the psychopathic and brilliant dirty cop who plays the role of the ruthless bad guy to a “T”.

Yes, it has been done. But it’s still a fun ride. The chase scenes are done very well. I found myself cringing every time Wilee plunges into an intersection and dodges swerving cars. 7KKI[QWVITTa��_PMV�PM�ÆQM[�through a stop light, the

frame rate drops and we get a slow motion glimpse into Wilee’s quick thinking that keeps him from getting killed. He goes through a progression of possible routes in his mind with all but one ending in certain (and somewhat humorous) catastrophe.

Premium Rush is aimed a younger crowd that isn’t too excited about the desk job that awaits the status-quo lifestyle. If you grew up watching the X-Games, chances are you’ll get a kick out of Wilee dodging semis and toying with cor-rupt cops. Aside from the predictable host of cheesy JIV\MZ��\PM�ÅTU�X]TT[�WNN �what was attempted quite well: an original angle on the chase scene based movie. It is pretty ridiculous in concept, and at times it teeters on the edge of being another throwaway cliché action movie, but there’s enough spunk and original-ity to save it.

The movie Hit and Run stars Dax Shepard, Kristen Bell, and Bradley Cooper. Shepard plays Charlie, who is in witness protection because he was involved in a group that robbed banks. His girlfriend Annie (Bell) gets offered an interview to run a department at a college in Los Angeles. Charlie doesn’t want Annie to miss out on this opportunity so he breaks the rule of not leaving the town he is in to bring Annie to Los Angeles. On their way to LA, Charlie and Annie are chased by Alex Dmitri (Coo-per) and his thugs, the Grand Marshal who is supposed to be protecting them, and An-nie’s ex-boyfriend who is still in love with her.

When Charlie comes clean about why he is in wit-ness protection, Annie begins to question her love for him

and leaves him. When she leaves him, her ex-boyfriend picks her up and decides to drive her to LA. Dmitri beats up Annie’s ex-boyfriend and kidnaps Annie. Dmitri uses her as bait to get money out of Charlie. So Charlie agrees to bring Dmitri and his gang to his house where he has money buried.

When Charlie, Annie, Dmitri, and his gang get to the house, they immediately begin to dig for the money. Once they get the money, +PIZTQM�[\IZ\[�]X�I�ÅOP\�\W�\Za�to get away. Then the Grand Marshal who is supposed to be protecting Charlie shows up at the perfect time to gun down Alex Dmitri. Then the movie ends with Charlie get-ting Annie to the interview in Los Angeles and she ends up getting the job.

This movie is described as having action, comedy and romance. There was a lot of action in this movie. There were a couple sweet

car chases as Charlie tries to escape Dmitri. There is ro-mance between Charlie and Annie throughout the movie as she decides whether or not she still loves him after he tells her why he is in witness protection.

The thing I didn’t like about this movie is that it wasn’t as funny as all the trailers made it out to be. Bradley Cooper’s character was kind of funny, and the things the Grand Marshal ends up doing are pretty fun-ny because things go wrong for him a lot. Shepard and Bell were just not funny, and they dominated the movie. The things that were funny in the movie came from all the supporting cast’s characters.

If I had the option to go see this movie again in theatres, I probably wouldn’t. I like the movies that Bradley Cooper and Kristen Bell are in, but this movie just didn’t grab my attention. I thought it was going to be funnier.

Huskies lose home opener 32-13

It’s easy to forget what a college football game means to people. For freshmen, it is a rite to get inducted into college life. For the return-ing students, it is a chance to see their team in action. For the alumni who take time out of their lives, it is a chance to cheer on their college and also reunite with old friends. Such was the at-mosphere in Husky Stadium on Thursday night as the Huskies lost to the Univer-sity of Sioux Falls Cougars 32-19 in a Northern Sun Intercollgiate Conference .

The game was packed with college students, many of whom eager to see their team back in action. Amidst the thunderous applause from the crowd, the team \WWS�\W�\PM�ÅMTL�PWXQVO�\W�start their season off with a win over a very competent Sioux Falls team.

Much has changed in a year; with many prominent seniors gone from the team, it would fall on many fresh faces to make up for the loss of leadership and experi-ence.

The game started with the Huskies receiving the ball, and right off the bat they looked to exploit the defense. Huskies’ quar-terback Phillip Klaphake tried to thread the needle by throwing it deep under pressure, but it was met by a Cougars’ Safety who intercepted the ball and put the Huskies defense on the ÅMTL�

The Cougars would re-spond in kind, also scoring a touchdown soon after when running back Kristian Por-ter brought it in uncontested for a four-yard touchdown to extend the Cougars’ lead to 15-6.

The Huskies responded in the next quarter. They would set up a 33-yard pass to Harington. Later, Kla-phake would show off his speed, catching the defense off guard with a 16-yard run that set up a 6-yard touchdown rush. This got

the Huskies back in the game 15-13.

This would be the clos-est that the Huskies got, as they never took the lead in the game. Perkins would use a lot of intermediate throws to keep his drives alive, and slowly and steadily whittle down the Huskies defense. The Cougars scored another touchdown, when Jeremiah Oates found the back of the end zone bringing the score to 22-13 Cougars lead.

The result of the game was hard to dispute. The Cougars looked in control of the game from the get go, and never relented. The quarterback for the Cougars, Perkins, had 25 completions and three touchdowns.

One positive thing to come out of the game might have been the performance by freshman Harrington, who became the go-to receiver on many occasions.

The other positive was the number of students present in the stands. There

were a lot of students in the stands, which bodes well for the football program.

When asked about how he felt about playing in front of so many fans Harrington said, “It was really cool coming in as a freshman, it was a great experience but I mean we lost so it’s sour. It was really cool; the atmo-sphere and the community coming out to support us.”

After the game, Huskies’ coach Scott Underwood said, “They [Sioux Falls] used their experience and talent, and exploited the inexperience that we had and got after us. We have to learn from it and get better.”

When asked about where he thought the inex-perience showed, Under-wood responded by saying, “Running the ball; we tried to get a new crew in there and try to develop them we had some concerns about it. They [Sioux Falls] made Q\�LQNÅK]T\�NWZ�][�\W�Z]V�\PM�ball.”

Klaphake said after the game, “We didn’t execute as well we would like to, so it comes down to how well Sioux Falls played tonight. You know, they have a re-ally good defense. We have something we have to work on. Tonight was just not our night.”

When asked about the packed crowd in the stands he said, “It is always nice to see all the people come out from campus [to the game]. It was fun to see people on the hill tonight, I hope we gave enough entertainment to come back and watch us another game.”

Coach Underwood was optimistic, saying that they would use this opportunity to learn and perform better in the coming games.

Huskies play their next game in Fayette, Iowa against Upper Iowa on Sept. 8.

Volleyball: Dietzen

ready to dominate Ryan Fitzgerald

ASST. SPORTS EDITOR

Ellie Dietzen did not grow up playing volleyball. Instead she was a hockey prodigy from the age of seven.

Volleyball was not too high on the list of a standout hockey player like Dietzen, who is from Black Creek, Wisc., where hockey and football reign supreme.

It was not until her fresh-man year in high school that Dietzen, with the help of her coach, realized the potential she had for volleyball.

Dietzen was quite the athlete in high school, playing and starting in four sports. She played softball, hockey, volleyball, and basketball, but chose to quit basketball her senior season to concen-trate more on volleyball and hockey.

“I was quite busy with sports in high school,” Diet-zen said with a slight chuckle.

Her family has been her biggest support system throughout her entire career and without them Dietzen would not be where she is now. “It’s so cool to have a family like mine because they all want is for me to have fun and be successful,” Dietzen said. “Also, all my little cous-ins look up to me, so that is awesome.”

Dietzen’s biggest role model of the court has been Kerri Walsh, the pro sand volleyball star. “It was very cool to see two U.S.A. teams in the sand volleyball Olym-XQK�ÅVIT[�\PQ[�aMIZ�º�,QM\bMV�said. “It was hard to cheer for one particular team, but of course I was cheering for Walsh quietly inside.”

Before coming to col-lege, Dietzen had to make a decision that would affect her entire college career: play vol-leyball or hockey, the game she grew up playing.

The University of North Dakota and University of Minnesota Duluth attempted to recruit Dietzen to play hockey for their universities. Furthermore, schools out east

were pursuing her as well for hockey and volleyball.

But Dietzen made the decision to come to SCSU and play volleyball because it was close to home, and there is a hockey team as well. “I just felt like I could go further in volleyball and felt like I’ve done everything I could in hockey,” Dietzen said.

1V�PMZ�ÅZ[\�[MI[WV�I\�SCSU, Dietzen did not play because she took a red-shirt [MI[WV��1V�PMZ�ÅZ[\�aMIZ�I[�I�starter, Diezten earned Most Improved Player, which was voted on by teammates and coaches.

“After sitting out an entire year, then having the coach tell you minutes before the game that you’re starting was a dream come true, and very nerve-racking at the same time,” said Dietzen.

Last season Dietzen had another outstanding season as she opened the season up _Q\P����SQTT[�IVL�ÅVQ[PML�\PM�season with a career high 14 kills against Northern State.

Dietzen has started in ev-ery match after her red-shirt season except for two pre-sea-son matches last season. “She is reliable and durable and we expect big things from her this season,” said head coach Michelle Blaeser.

When Dietzen is not spik-ing balls in the faces of oppo-nents, she enjoys relaxing and hanging out with friends and watching “How I Met Your Mother”.

She is majoring in early childhood development. “I don’t particularly like sitting in the classroom,” Dietzen [IQL��¹*]\�\PM�ÅMTL�_WZS�IVL�getting out into real class-rooms with real kids, that’s what I enjoy most because that experience is priceless.”

SCSU volleyball has been up and down the past few seasons, but with coach Blae-ser in third season as coach and a leader like Dietzen, this could be the turning point. “I just want to help build a bet-ter program and I think this season will be a good season,” Dietzen said.

Husky soccer off

to exciting startLindsay Brock

SPORTS BEAT REPORTER

The Husky soccer team had their opening game Friday against Northwest Missouri State.

The game was anything but boring.

It was a competitive road game for the Huskies. SCSU and the Bearcats tied 2-2 in double overtime.

The Huskies had 19 shots overall – 14 on goal. The Hus-ky defense was led by 10 saves from goalkeeper, Julia Clifford. Bailly Drayton and Gabby Fleck were the point carriers for the Huskies, both scoring in the second half. Drayton’s shot was unassisted, while Fleck was assisted by senior teammate, CoCo Cammon.

For Drayton and Fleck, it _I[�\PM�ÅZ[\�OWIT[�WN �\PMQZ�KWT-

legiate career.SCSU senior, Mary

Morhardt led the Huskies with six shots, four of them being on goal.

The Bearcats attempted 19 shots, 12 of them being on goal. The Huskies were able to pull ahead of their oppo-nent 14 shots on goal to 12, keeping their motivation alive.

The Huskies are hoping to keep that same motivation alive throughout their season.

SCSU will travel to Minnesota State University - Moorhead on Sept. 2 for their second game of the season.

On Monday, Sept. 3, the Huskies will be playing on their own turf at Husky Stadium, facing Southwest Minnesota State University.

An exciting start for SCSU women’s soccer team, and hopefully it will only get better.
