Th e last weekend before the start of the semester off ered many Man-hattan residents a last chance to cut loose, and K-State’s faculty and staff were no exception. Th e Red State Blues Band played to a packed house at Cat Tracks on Saturday night. Th e eight-man band, most of whom are professors, has been building a loyal fan base in the Manhattan area since 2005, and their fame is growing.

Rita White, whose daughter Corin is a graduate student in biol-ogy, was visiting from their home in

California when she heard about the Red State Blues Band’s performance. Rita changed her fl ight plan to stay in town so she would not miss the show.

“I think they’re absolutely won-derful,” Rita said. “Th is music is from my generation.”

Rita said Corin had been trying to convince her to stay a few more days anyway, but the chance to listen to listen to the band was what fi nal-ly swayed her. She plans to use her extra time in Manhattan to see some of the local sights, like the Konza Prairie.

“It’s been a really wonderful eve-

ning and I enjoy the people of Man-hattan,” Rita said. “I’m really glad that I stayed.”

Mike Herman, professor in biol-ogy and bass player for the Red State Blues Band, is Corin’s adviser and had a chance to meet Rita while she visited campus. Herman dedicated a song to Rita to show their apprecia-tion.

Herman said the band frequently plays at this time of year because many of the band members are busy during the summer with research projects or traveling, so Saturday’s

A K-State student is being held at the Riley County Police Department for al-legedly beating an Iraq veteran to death in Aggieville.

According to a press release from the RCPD, Justin Taylor, 24, of 619 Vattier St., has been charged with second-degree murder. His bond was set at $250,000.

Taylor is a junior in kinesiology.Lt. Richard Fink of the RCPD said

police responded to a call in the early hours of Aug. 11 about a man in an alley in the 1000 block north of Moro Street. Th ere, police found Kevin Cockrum, 31, unconscious.

According to the press release, Cockrum was taken to Mercy Regional Health Center with severe head injuries, and was later fl own to Wichita’s Via Christi Hospital in critical condition. Cockrum died from his injuries on Aug. 12.

Aft er the attack, police released a state-ment and surveillance footage of a car near the scene around the time of attack. Th e press release said there were three indi-viduals inside the car.

“Th ere’s no real indication they knew each other on a regular basis,” said Fink, of the suspects and Cockrum. He said at this point, it seems they were involved in a verbal altercation that escalated.

A second student was also arrested and charged with aiding second-degree murder, but charges were later dropped. Th e student was released because of insuf-fi cient probable cause.

Pat Bosco, vice president of student life, said the university has a committee that addresses incidents involving students.

“Unfortunately, we have these situa-tions occasionally and we address them on

a case-by-case basis,” Bosco said. “We have a university-wide safety committee made up of counseling, staff , police, student life and academic administration to address any kind of potential safety issue.”

Bosco said the university committee is completely separate from the RCPD and would likely not release any information.

Cockrum, father of fi ve, was a former combat medic in the military and served two tours in Iraq. His father, Robert Cock-rum, said he was in improvised explosive device explosions in both tours, receiving two Purple Hearts.

Robert said his son was the type of person who was “always willing to help.”

“It makes me proud, knowing that I did every-thing I could to raise him right,” he said. “He was willing to always help other people, you know, putting his life to the side in order to help someone

else who really needs help at the time.”Robert said he always heard stories

about his son’s generosity. He said one of the most touching stories was told at the funeral by a woman who served with Kevin in Germany.

“Kevin and them had just got back from their fi rst tour of duty in Iraq. One girl had just gotten engaged and they came to her room and said, ‘Hey, you need to pack up, you’re being sent to Iraq,’” he said. “Kevin went to the commander and talked to him without anyone knowing and said ‘If there’s any way you could, I would like to take her place.’”

Kevin served in the military for about eight years, until he was stationed at Fort Riley in September 2010.

Kevin was buried on Aug. 18 in Ala-bama. He was buried in a military cem-etery with full honors.

Th e investigation into his death is on going.

Editor’s note: Th is is part one of a three-part series on the rising cost of tuition and its eff ect on students. Th is story was produced as a class assign-ment for the A.Q. Miller School of Journalism and Mass Communication.

For junior Rylee Bacon, fi nding ways to pay for school makes her identify with a hamster on a wheel.

“You’re just running, running really, really fast, and you’re trying to keep up, but you just can’t,” she said.

Bacon, who works about 20 hours a week at Th read, a custom T-shirt shop in Aggieville, tries to balance school, work and leisure, but she must still make sacrifi ces.

“It adds such a great deal of stress to know that you’re working, and you’re really trying to keep up, but you’re still going to be behind,” she said.

With tuition costs increasing annu-ally at K-State and most universities across the nation, Bacon and other students who are trying to balance school and money could continue to struggle.

Aft er the state of Kansas reduced

funding, K-State proposed a tuition increase of 4 percent for the 2011-12 school year. Th e Kansas Board of Regents approved this proposal at its June meeting.

Th e university needs the money from tuition increases to pay employ-ees and maintain buildings, though Provost April Mason said she wishes K-State could receive additional re-sources from somewhere else.

“Where is the somewhere else? It’s not the state right now,” Mason said. “To maintain the commitment that we have to our students for the size of classes or the level of equipment in laboratories or the holdings of our library, we have to increase revenue, and it comes, I fear and I’m sorry to say, on the backs of our students.”

For the 2011-12 academic year, Bacon and her fellow in-state stu-dents will pay $231.20 per credit hour, though some colleges like business ad-ministration and engineering include additional costs for equipment and course fees. In-state undergraduate students enrolled in 30 credit hours for the year will pay $7,657, which in-cludes campus privilege fees, accord-ing to data from the Board of Regents. Th e increase will cost students $281 more than last school year. Out-of-state undergraduate students will pay $19,123 — an increase of $719.

NO REFUNDS

Whenever a relationship breaks up, there is a cost. Not just a broken heart, but money wasted on dates, gifts and the expenses of wooing. A broken heart heals, but the money is gone forever.

Lately, women have been taking their broken hearts and empty wallets to court after online relationships have gone sour. So far, courts have ruled against them. Rejected women should not be able to take every jerk to court, but some of these cases go beyond just jilted lovers and move into criminal jerk level.

Earlier this month, a New Zealand safety group found that older women looking for love are more prone to being scammed over the Internet. After launch-ing an online reporting system, the group said New Zealand-ers reported losing more than $750,000 from online incidents in the past year and over half of the money reported lost was involved romance scams.

In May, an Illinois woman claimed she was deceived in an online relationship that lasted 18 months and took some really weird turns. The woman thought she fell in love with a Colorado firefighter and his friends and family, and then mourned his death with them when he “died” of liver cancer.

As it turns out, Jesse Jubilee James and his family and friends were all made up by a woman who might have been working the same scam on five other women who have come forward since the story went public. This woman even altered her voice to sound like a man during phone calls.

This might be a criminal level of jerkdom. The case has been dismissed from court twice, but recently a third amended complaint has been allowed to proceed.

But most of these cases have been thrown out of court. Just this month, a Michigan judge dis-missed a lawsuit filed by a woman who wanted more than $8,000 from a man she met on Facebook after he called an end to their online romance.

The two met while playing Mafia Wars and then began mes-saging and even created a private group just for the two of them. She sent Christmas gifts to him and his sons and then paid for travel to see him.

Just before her trip he told her he had met someone else. And then it got weird. She formed a Facebook hate group about him. He posted some mean stuff on her wall.

He is happy the case was thrown out, but upset that he had

to disable his Facebook account and stopped playing Mafia Wars because “she took all the fun away from that game.”

So clearly, this guy is a jerk, but probably not criminal fraud-level jerk.

Everyone lies in a relationship, whether it be in person or online.

Sean Horan is a professor of communications at DePaul University who specializes in relational communication. Ac-cording to a May 11, 2011, article by Brenda Schory in the Kane

County Chronicle, Horan said research shows that deception in relationships is common.

“We often assume people are honest with us. But someone we are dating, in a romantic relation-ship, we lie to the most,” Horan said. “One of three interactions with a non-married romantic partner contains a lie.”

The lesson in all this is to be smart and to accept that love always comes at a price. What is unacceptable is a person who takes no measures to protect her

heart or her money and blindly donates to a jerk.

Susan Sarandon said it best as Annie Savoy in the 1988 comedy “Bull Durham”: “Women do not get lured. They are too strong and powerful for that. Now say it — ‘I did not get lured. I accept full responsibility for my actions.’”

I noticed a pattern in my elementary school history classes. Every year, we would start at the Stone Age, work our way forward through Egypt, Rome and the Renaissance, and stop just aft er World War II. Th e next year, we would start over at the Stone Age and cover the same set of materials, albeit with a little more depth and maturity, and stop aft er World War II. With the exception of the civil rights movement, anything that happened aft er World War II was scarcely mentioned, let alone taught. Watergate, Kennedy, the Cold War, the social movements of the ‘60s — all of them were simply ignored.

I’ve talked to a lot of friends about it, and this phenomenon of avoiding post-WWII history subjects seems more prevalent in smaller schools, but it can happen anywhere. Even in larger schools, modern history is sometimes limited to AP courses, which aren’t available to everyone.

Th e whole issue is deeply counter-intuitive to me. In today’s world, the last 50 years of history are more relevant to our modern landscape than the accomplishments of the Aztecs, and it ought to be more im-portant that we understand the events that our parents grew up with, the ones that directly shaped the world we grew up in. But unfortunately, I think it’s precisely because the last 50 years are so relevant that they are omitted.

Since presidents like Carter, Reagan and Eisenhower are so recent, they are also very heavily politicized, along with the events that occurred during their terms. All posi-tions on the politi-cal spectrum seem to have reached some consensus about their administrations and legacies. Teachers know that parents taking an interest in their children’s education are sure to take off ense at the way certain material is being presented if it doesn’t agree with their own take on it. Just thinking back to some of the parents in my rural Kansas hometown, I can understand the teachers’ concerns. I wouldn’t be surprised if some-

one would complain that our classes weren’t teaching that Reagan was responsible for the Soviet Union’s collapse or that Kennedy was secretly taking orders from the Pope.

Teachers and adminis-trations might be avoiding controversy, but I think the students are missing out because of it. For one, our lack of knowledge leaves us less than fully equipped to participate in modern politics. How many of today’s Republicans compare their own policies with Rea-

ganomics? And how many young people un-derstand the analogy? Even more impor-tantly, my classmates and I were fi nishing sixth grade

when the United States invaded Iraq. All through junior high and high school, our older friends and relatives were being shipped overseas to fi ght this war we kept hearing about. We heard people on the news comparing Iraq to Vietnam, but none of us really understood the analogy because we didn’t know anything about Vietnam. Police action, you say? But isn’t it called the Vietnam War? I will

freely admit that everything I know about Vietnam comes from my parents and Wikipe-dia; I think the problems with that are self-evident.

In addition to our ignorance on modern history, teaching the less-politicized history deprives us of a crucial skill: handling controversy. If we never have a chance to argue with our peers in a controlled environment, our debate skills are bound to suff er for it. High school should have been a time for us to learn how to listen to others’ viewpoints, as well as how to explain our own view-points to people who disagree. Instead, we learned — some-what noncontroversially — that slavery was bad.

Now that we are in college, this should be our time to pro-test against the establishment and usher in the next social paradigms, but alas, many of us are somewhat ignorant on the previous string of social paradigms that led up to today. Among other things, I think our generation is bottlenecked by our ignorance of the recent past and our inability to handle contentious topics. We’re supposed to be changing the world, but we barely under-stand it.

K-State was named Kansas State University for a specifi c reason; it’s supposed to be sup-ported by the state of Kansas. It’s mission as a land-grant institu-tion is to provide education, ser-vice and research to the people of Kansas. Th at’s a tall order and an expensive one at that. However, a 197 percent tuition increase over the past 10 years seems very out of place especially in the current state of the economy.

What the state of Kansas is ba-sically doing is making it harder for an institution designed to help Kansans lead better lives more diffi cult to do it’s job. In-stead the state is asking K-Staters to be willing to cut a huge check in order to obtain the service. We’re not completely okay with this. While we acknowledge that we should have to pay for the luxury of an education, we

should not have to attend classes in crumbling buildings owned by the state. K-State has the largest diff ered maintenance program of any of the regents universities in Kansas.

Th is year tuition went up another 4 percent from last year bringing total students pay per credit hour to a whop-ping $231.20 while the state is paying out less and less for daily operations and expect-ing K-State to foot the rest. K-State is raising more money than ever and yet students are paying more and more to attend classes. How is this possible? It’s very apparent to us that there is not a single K-Stater who is excited about the 4 percent tuition increase, but K-State students are left with few choices: pay out, go into debt or not graduate. Obviously a better compromise needs to be made. Surely administrators, the Board of Regents, politi-cians and students can reach a better compromise.

A food safety specialist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture is joining K-State’s College of Human Ecology as head of the department of hospitality management and dietetics.

Jeannie Sneed will start her new job Oct. 1. She previously worked with the USDA in Washington, D.C.

Sneed earned a doctorate

in food service systems man-agement and organizational behavior at Ohio State Univer-sity and is a registered dietitian and a certifi ed professional food safety and school nutri-tion specialist.

Her research has focused on food service safety in as-sisted living centers and retail establishments.

“Dr. Sneed brings strength to a program whose mis-sion becomes more crucial as Americans, and the global

community, seek guidance to assure food safety in schools and restaurants and to better understand the connection between diet and wellness,” said Virginia Moxley, dean of the College of Human Ecol-ogy. “Her research expertise will be invaluable as the de-partment expands its empha-sis on food safety.”

Sneed was director of the School of Family and Con-sumer Studies at Kent State University in Ohio and a pro-

fessor at Iowa State University, Oregon State University and the University of Tennessee. She is past editor of the Jour-nal of Child Nutrition & Man-agement and has worked with the extension service in Okla-homa.

In 2007 she received NSF International’s Lifetime Achievement Award for Food Safety Education and Re-search.

For nontraditional stu-dents at K-State, courses of-fered on accelerated sched-ules can lead not only to a faster degree path -- they also can help students focus and retain course content.

According to nationwide continuing education sur-veys, nontraditional students prefer taking fewer courses at a time, off ered in shorter time frames.

“Th e condensed format of K-State’s eight-week courses that have on-campus and

online off erings requires stu-dents to concentrate more on course content over a shorter period of time,” said A. David Stewart, associate dean of continuing education at K-State. “Studies show that student retention of course content is at least as good as courses taken on the tradi-tional 16-week schedule.”

Stewart says the courses require greater time com-mitments from students and dedication from course in-structors, who adjust their lesson plans to account for the shorter time frame. Eight-week courses cover twice the content per week as a course off ered on a semester-long

schedule, but speed does not compromise content or qual-ity.

“Th e high standards and requirements of these courses are the same regardless of the schedule they are off ered,” Stewart said. “Since there is less fl exibility with ‘waiting until tomorrow’ to get some-thing done, shorter courses have a much greater impact on student performance and can oft en result in a height-ened level of focus for retain-ing information and staying on track. But the accelerated schedule can enable students to complete their degrees at a faster pace.”

K-State’s eight-week dis-

tance education courses avail-able in the fall term include: SOCIO 211: Introduction to Sociology; SOCWK 310: Topics: Social Services and the Law; EDCEP 103: Health-ful and Safe College Life; ASI 675: Monogastric Nutrition; ASI 678: Equine Nutrition; MANGT 420: Management Concepts; MKTG 400: Intro-duction to Marketing; MKTG 542: Professional Selling and Sales Management; MKTG 544: International Marketing; and MKTG 844: Advanced International Marketing.

Like father, like son. Th e phrase still resonates today as James M. Johnson, Colorado Springs, Colo., has built on the solid foundation laid by his father, the late Gil E. Johnson, build-ing a thriving career in general contracting -- and giving back to the university that set him on the path to success.

Gil Johnson founded the Col-orado Springs-based GE Johnson Construction, a general contract-ing fi rm, in 1967. As president and CEO, Gil Johnson expanded the company throughout Colo-rado and into adjoining states, operating with an approach fo-cused on ethics, values and com-mitment.

A 1955 graduate of Kansas State University, Gil Johnson es-tablished an engineering schol-arship at the university, the GE Johnson Engineering Scholar-ship, as well as the GE Johnson Construction Science Chair and the GE Johnson Athletic Depart-ment Fund.

Fast-forward 30 years. In 1997, James Johnson took leader-ship of the company, which now boasts annual sales in excess of $300 million. Following in his father’s footsteps, James Johnson and his wife, Laura, have made a gift of $6 million to K-State to establish the James M. and Laura E.

I hate reality television like Casey Anthony hates being honest. If you can’t stand people who try to make themselves look more impor-tant than everyone around them in real life, why on earth would you watch them on TV?

With that, let me quickly intro-duce myself. I am Tyler Dreiling, lifelong Manhattan resident and a K-State fan since the beginning. My childhood was fi lled with moments of classmates telling me to shut up about Wildcat football every Monday from August through De-cember, as I verbally recalled each snap of Saturday’s game. I knew the words to “Wildcat Victory” before I knew the “Pledge of Allegiance.”

I have dreamed about writing for this newspaper and speaking to this student body for years, and the time is fi nally here.

To get started, I think it is only fi tting to give a critical analysis of this month’s new blockbuster,

“Conference Wars Episode II: Th e Aggies Strike Back.”

In case you need it, here is the background story: Texas got paid a ton of money to be a fashion model for a big-city agency, the Longhorn Network. Texas A&M got jealous and decided to make a big scene in front of everyone before running into a door that said “pull.” Every-one laughed except for Missouri. Texas A&M got up, ran into the parking lot and got hit by a car driven by the Southeastern Confer-ence (SEC). Th e SEC apologized, noticed A&M was kind of cute, and now they are deciding if they want to give A&M a ride back to their mansion, which was built by ESPN.

Exhale.I have heard a lot of people talk

about the Aggies being almost as bad as Nebraska or Colorado, but this is not quite accurate.

Th e Aggies’ plot is worse. Far worse.

Th e Huskers and Buff aloes left the Big 12 when cracks appeared in the foundation of the conference. Th ey ran out the door to avoid being crushed by the ceiling if it collapsed, but when it did not, they were held responsible and deemed cowards.

Fair? Perhaps, but that is an argument for another day. Look at what the Aggies are doing.

Earlier this year, the Big 12 announced a new deal with FOX Sports. University leaders came together and confi rmed the ten-member conference would work. It was diff erent, for sure, but it was strong, united and ready to move forward into a new era.

Texas A&M was the Kim Kardashian of the room. Fake and self-centered, it knew it wanted a new home from the moment Texas and ESPN came together.

Behind the scenes, A&M began talking to the SEC in search of its own glory, and threatened the rest of the conference in the process.

Where are we now? Th e SEC presidents decided they were happy with 12 members, for now. Will that last? Th ere are plenty of confl icting reports on that, and I cannot say I believe one over the rest.

What is sad about the situation as a whole is that for the fi rst time in the history of college sports, uni-versity administrators are willing to admit that money and exposure is the most important factor of any decision regarding its school’s athletics.

Rivalries? Who cares? Histori-cal signifi cances? So what? What makes the fans happy? Irrelevant.

Nebraska and Colorado really are not responsible for bringing

this grim reality to light. To some degree, Texas is, because it stayed in the Big 12 mostly for the TV network money. However, Texas A&M is even worse, because it was willing to threaten nine other schools for its own gain.

Th e thing that really cracks me up about this story is that K-State ended up the “good guy” of the entire saga.

Texas creates a network. Th e Aggies throw a tantrum. K-State? It quietly puts together its own with far less money and far less drama.

Th e web-based network is pretty small in comparison to the Longhorn Network, but who cares? It will get the job done, and it eff ectively made Texas A&M look like an 8-year-old girl who started crying when she only got 23 birthday presents instead of the standard 25. Give a deserved con-gratulations to University President Kirk Schultz and Athletic Director John Currie on a job well done.

As for Texas A&M? Whether you end up in the Big 12 or SEC, do not expect much respect from anyone. No one wants to keep up with you, Kim. See you on Nov. 12.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzger-ald agreed to an eight year deal worth $ 120 million. In the contract, Fitzgerald is guaranteed 50 million.

Jalen Rose was released from jail aft er serving 16 days for drunken driving. Rose, who is most known for being a part of the Fab Five at Michigan, was very apologetic for his actions. He is now a NBA analyst for ESPN.

Kyle Busch was able to hold off fi ve-time defending champion Jimmie Johnson. He guaranteed a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup and leads Johnson by 10 points.

Sunday was K-State day at Kauff man Sta-dium as the Royals took on the Red Sox. Coach Brad Hill talked about the upcoming season and K-State fans received a free hat.

I have suspected it many times, and now we fi nally can be sure. Frank Martin and “CSI: Miami” are the only two genuine things to come out of South Beach in the last 10 years.

A man by the name of Nevin Shapiro saw to that.

Last week, one of the big-gest series of accusations in the history of college sports was made when Shapiro, a University of Miami booster, confessed to giving improper benefi ts to at least 72 former UM athletes from 2002 to 2010. He claims several coaches and university per-sonnel were well aware of the infractions.

No matter how large the hurricane is that sweeps through Miami’s campus as a result, it is nothing compared to the storm that is about to hit the college sports land-scape nationwide.

Th e NCAA has been bat-tling the pay-for-play problem for decades, but it has never taken center stage in the way it has since incidents at South-ern California, Georgia and Ohio State came to light over the last fi ve years.

Now, every university,

student-athlete and fan needs to prepare for the NCAA’s biggest decision yet: cripple Miami’s athletic department with dozens of diff erent mod-erate penalties, or exterminate the department altogether by bringing back the “death penalty” for the fi rst time since 1987.

Of course, before we get to that, all of these accusations will have to be proven through scores of diff erent investiga-tions.

Did Shapiro really give countless players an extra $100 to $1,000 because they needed some extra cash?

Did he really place bounties on other school’s playmakers, off ering rewards to Miami players that injured them badly?

Did he really give a player $500 for an abortion with a prostitute that Shapiro also paid for?

Hold on a second. I can taste my breakfast coming back.

All right, we’re good.Th e point is that this will

take forever and a couple months to sort out. Fortu-nately for K-State, Bryce and Arthur Brown have already been cleared, but when that day fi nally comes, what will be the Hurricanes’ fate?

In the meantime, what is the plan to stop this problem nationwide?

Personally, I love what the NFL did with former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor.

Pryor was suspended for the fi rst fi ve games of the

upcoming college season. He left school in favor of the NFL to avoid that punishment. Th ankfully, the league did not let him off that easily. Th e NFL has suspended Pryor for the fi rst fi ve games of his profes-sional career, making sure he does not escape his punish-ment.

Th at decision was the fi rst of its kind, and I hope to see many more like it to come.

If the NFL continues to punish players for cheating in college, there will not be a point to cheating anymore. It might not be foolproof, but I am not a genius. It is just an idea.

Th en, maybe the NCAA will not have anymore of these stupid boosters and agents to worry about. Because the one currently at hand, Shapiro, is the worst of them all.

We will patiently wait judgment day for the Miami Hurricanes. K-State remains quite clean, and rightfully

proud of it.Still, South Beach is in

trouble. We will just call it a Category 5 that is on a direct path.

Hope it blows LeBron James away too. Coach Martin, thanks for getting out of there; “the stare” can not fi x this problem.

to give a lot back to my com-munity and places like K-State -- I take it as a personal and corporate responsibility to do so,” James Johnson said.

“James and Laura’s gift will be a tremendous factor in recruit-ing, supporting and rewarding the fi nest students and out-standing faculty at Kansas State University,” said Kirk Schulz, K-State president. “Th eir gift will

help advance the institution to-wards its goal of becoming a top 50 public research university by 2025.”

Philanthropic contributions to K-State are coordinated by the KSU Foundation. Th e foundation staff works with university partners to build life-long relationships with alumni, friends, faculty, staff and stu-dents through involvement and investment in the university.

While Willie the Wildcat typically amps up crowds of purple, his new sidekick will be encouraging K-Staters to go green. Meet EcoKat, K-State’s crusader of conservation and fanatic of fl uorescent lightbulbs.

Along with Willie, the pair -- dubbed the EcoEnforcers -- has set out to reduce K-State’s energy usage by 15 percent over the next four years by educating students about what they can do to cut back and conserve.

Beginning this week, EcoKat will show the community how to be more environmentally conscious through appearanc-es, promotional events and a series of online Webisodes. Th e videos -- to be available in late August -- and corresponding website can be found at k-state.edu/ecokat.

“Part of my job is to educate the university community on ways they can conserve energy,” said Casey Lauer, director of energy and environment. “My idea was to create a video that was a challenge to students -- ‘What’s one thing you can

to do conserve?’ Because that one thing multiplied by 24,000 people equals a big change.”

Th e EcoKat video idea was born from a serious call to action that morphed into a more humorous, tough-love take on environmentalism, inspired by Reebok’s popular Terry Tate Offi ce Linebacker commercial series and “Th e Biggest Loser” personal trainer Jillian Michaels.

Willie the Wildcat was added into the equation to make the campaign unique-

ly K-State, because he is an adored and recognizable char-acter in the community.

“We didn’t want to go over the top with it, so that’s when Willie was brought in as her muscle. She’s the brain and Wil-lie’s her back up,” Lauer said. “It has the same feel as the Terry Tate series, but it was diff erent enough with the EcoEnforcers spin that it gained its own sense of identity.”

Th e EcoEnforcers project initially began as a behavioral education tool to make stu-

dents aware of their energy consumption, Lauer said. But once the groundwork was es-tablished, it grew to include more facets like the Take Charge! Challenge, which runs through September.

EcoKat, who is played by a K-State senior who auditioned for the role, is outfi tted in a costume made of 90 percent repurposed materials, coming mostly from the athletics de-partment. Th e department of apparel, textiles and interior design used eco-friendly dyes to get the fi nal look, making it entirely sustainable and recy-clable within K-State.

Th e university will be able to measure EcoKat’s success by determining changes in energy usage based on data collected prior and during this project. Energy dashboards will be set up in buildings around campus to show how much energy is being used and where it can be reduced.

“Th e energy dashboards display real-time energy con-sumption and are a learning tool for feedback and aware-ness,” Lauer said. “Th ey serve as a window into prioritizing how and where to improve condi-tions on campus.”

Exactly how much has tu-ition increased? In fall 2001, students paid $77.75 per credit hour. Th ey would have to pay nearly triple that amount now.

Th ough infl ation does play a role in the increasing costs of a college degree — as it has with gasoline prices and the cost of various retail items — more reasons exist for this 197 per-cent increase in K-State tuition costs over the past 11 years.

One of the biggest reasons for the increases concerns the state.

As a public university, K-State can pay for its general operations costs, which are pre-dominantly salaries and wages, through tuition revenue and money from the State General Fund, said Bruce Shubert, asso-ciate vice president for admin-istration and fi nance. As one component decreases, though, the other must make up the dif-ference.

In 2001, appropriations

from the state amounted to $167.5 million, or 34.5 per-cent of the total $486-million budget, according to data from K-State’s Budget Offi ce. Th ough K-State’s budget rose to almost $660 million for the 2010-11 school year — an increase of almost $200 million since 2001 — the state’s funding has failed to keep up. State appropriations of about $165 million made up only 25 percent of the budget.

To make up for the loss, stu-dent tuition generated more than $160 million, or about 24 percent of the budget, whereas it funded only about 11 percent in 2001. Th is school year, for the fi rst time, the university’s revenue for tuition could sur-pass the percent of state fund-ing, Shubert said.

Besides decreased state funding, K-State also has to pay for a 15-percent increase in group health insurance costs for its employees. Despite the fact that the state is mandating this increase, the university will not see any extra money from

the state to help fund it, Shu-bert said.

Mason said the increased revenue from student tuition funds the mandatory increase in the cost of medical coverage.

“Nobody, yourself included, wants to be without medical in-surance, so when our medical coverage goes up double digits, we have to cover that,” she said.

At the same time, Mason said she knows that as tuition continues to increase, some students must work many hours each week to pay for

school — meaning they lose out on some of the opportu-nities that K-State provides, which defeats the purpose of being here. However, she doesn’t know what the answer to the issue is.

“It would be more wonder-ful if the state would give more money to the universities so we wouldn’t have to increase tuition, but very honestly, I’ve been in this business now for 27 years and it’s not changed,” she said. “Every year, things get less.”

show provided the band their first opportunity to get back together before classes begin.

“It’s a great way to kick off the semester,” Herman said.

Herman said he enjoyed the diversity of the music the band plays.

“Blues is really easy to relate to,” he said. “You can play it from the heart. We may be old, but we rock.”

Seth Galitzer, systems ad-ministrator for the depart-ment of computing and in-formation sciences, said the band covers many styles of blues and classic rock, such as Southern style and Texas style, but their main focus is the electric blues of the 1960s and ‘70s, such as Eric Clap-ton. The band cycles through about 50 different songs, in-cluding original songs and covers, Galitzer said. Saturday night’s performance included a cover of Santana’s “Black Magic Woman” and ZZ Top’s “La Grange.”

“The hardest part for me is keeping all the words in my head,” said Galitzer, who sings

lead vocals for most of the songs and plays saxophone.

One of the things Galitzer said he liked about the band was that the name could be in-terpreted in so many different ways, but he said it had noth-ing to do with the political backgrounds of the members.

“We don’t try to make po-litical statements with our music,” Galitzer said. “We just play and have a good time.”

The Red State Blues Band will be performing at Purple Power Play on Poyntz Avenue on Sept. 1. For more informa-tion on the band and other up-coming events, visit their web-site at redstatebluesband.com.

The weekend before school starts can be a little hectic. New students and their fami-lies flood the town; congesting the lines and aisles at Walmart, stopping up traffic, and making it nearly impossible to find a decent parking spot on campus. Sorority recruitment

comes to a close as the week-end starts so the greek families are all back and organizing for the semester ahead. And the Week of Welcome starts off with a pep ralley and free food to get students psyched for the upcoming football and basketball seasons. In case you missed it, here’s a photo wrap up of this crazy, exciting and fun Wildcat weekend.

Devouring this year’s K-State Book Network book, “Zeitoun,” is only the fi rst part of the story -- the organizers of the program at K-State have planned several events throughout the fall meant to emphasize the book’s power-ful themes.

Th e network provides incom-ing freshmen with a copy of the same book to read during the summer, with the book selection changing each year. Current stu-dents, faculty and staff are also able to get their hands on a copy of the book, allowing the entire campus to participate in the program and engage in thought-provoking conversations.

Th is summer, students re-ceived “Zeitoun” by Dave Eggers at their campus orientation. “Zeitoun” follows the nonfi ction tale of a Syrian-American con-tractor who had the means to leave New Orleans when warn-ings of Hurricane Katrina began pouring in but elected to stay. He doled out supplies to vic-tims and saved pets but ran into trouble of his own along the way.

Th e themes in “Zeitoun” are plentiful, including persever-ance, equality and justice. Karin Westman, head of the depart-ment of English and chair of the network’s events committee, said the team has planned events to bring these themes to the sur-face and spark conversation.

“Th e events this fall mark the intersection of service and recovery, showing us the many ways that a community of indi-viduals can help each other sur-vive and thrive,” she said.

Activities kick off with the Aug. 28 showing of “Trouble the Water,” in conjunction with Movies on the Grass, at dusk at Coff man Commons in front of K-State’s Hale Library. Westman said “Trouble the Water” is an award-winning documentary about Hurricane Katrina that seamlessly weaves 15 minutes of home movie footage with ar-chival news segments shot over the two years following the hur-ricane.

Retired Lt. Gen. Russel Honore will give a public lec-ture, “Th e New Normal: Lead-ership and Preparedness in the 21st Century,” at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 13, in the K-State Student Union Grand Ballroom. Th e network and K-State First are sponsoring the lecture, with

additional support from the University Honors Program, K-State Libraries and military aff airs.

Honore commanded Joint Task Force-Katrina, leading the U.S. Department of Defense response to hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Westman said Honore will give his refl ections on his work in New Orleans as well as how to prepare for future na-tional disasters.

Greg Eiselein, professor of English and co-director of K-State First, said Honore’s lecture should be invaluable to the stu-dents’ experience aft er reading “Zeitoun.”

“He is widely credited with transforming the initial debacle of relief eff orts aft er Hurricane Katrina into a genuine humani-tarian rescue mission,” Eiselein said. “Sometimes known by his nickname, ‘Th e Ragin’ Cajun,’ the general’s style is sometimes rough, but he has proven him-self to be an eff ective and caring leader in times of crisis.”

A campuswide service proj-ect will take place Oct. 15-22 in conjunction with the net-work program and Community Service Week. Westman said

the project will be coordinated with Hands-On K-State and the School of Leadership Studies. It will feature various aft ernoon, evening and daylong opportu-nities for students, faculty and staff to learn how they can help in their communities.

Details for the service project will be available in early Septem-ber, with registration beginning Sunday, Oct. 2.

Th e fi nal network event for the semester will be a telecon-ference with “Zeitoun” author Eggers from 6-7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 8, in Town Hall at the Leadership Studies Building.

Stephen Kiefer, co-chair of the K-State Book Network, said the network events allow one of the organization’s goals to be completed: using the common reading experience as a portal.

“Students can expand their knowledge and experience beyond the premise of a book,” he said. “’Zeitoun’ off ers us an opportunity to explore a deeply personal event through the main character and also to see the broader implications of Ka-trina for a city’s survival and the nation’s psyche.”

Campus events give readers chance to delve into ‘Zeitoun

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR:

It would be impossible for me to imagine K-State with-out the Collegian. It’s been the student’s voice since 1896 when the paper, then known as Th e Student’s Herald, it was started by a group of students seeking the truth. I fi rmly believe that still holds true today.

Th e Collegian staff is committed to providing fair and balanced coverage that accurately represents our readership. All of us are here to learn. Employees of Student Publications Inc. learn by doing. Occasionally we make mistakes. If that happens I hope you will let us know. We want to be held

accountable for our mistakes and use them as a learning opportunity.

Our goal is to tell the stories of the K-State and Manhattan communities. Th e staff members are committed to a level of quality reporting that not only educates and informs these communities, but starts a dialogue that might not otherwise happen. Interestingly enough many of my colleagues here are not journalism majors, we are always looking for more writ-ers and reporters. If you’re interested in joining our staff , contributing a story here and there, have a story idea worth pitching, feel enough conviction to write a letter to the editor or even just would like to stop by our newsroom and meet us please do so. In my opinion media works best when it sparks conversation or change.

Th e Collegian has changed a great deal since I walked into the newsroom as a fresh-man. We have a diff erent ad-

viser, the Collegian itself has had several diff erent looks, diff erent editors have guided it in various directions of coverage, but ultimately one thing has stayed the same; every decision made involv-ing the Collegian has been made by students, seeking the same type of truth as when it was founded. I look forward to my third semester at the helm of the Kansas State Collegian. It is my hope that every member in the community has the oppor-tunity to participate in the discussion we are leading.

I cannot predict what Kirk Schulz might tweet next, if the Wildcats will be bowl eligible again, what events might occur this semester, but I can assure the Collegian staff here in Kedzie 116 is ready to report it for you.

K-State communications and marketing

If you or someone you know sometimes drives aft er drinking alcohol or consum-ing other drugs, be warned that from Th ursday, Aug. 18, through Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 5, there will be additional enforcement of Kansas drunk driving and other traffi c laws -- and the K-State Police De-partment will participate.

Th e department is among 150 other local police agen-cies and the Kansas Highway Patrol taking part in an eff ort to educate about impaired driving and remove impaired drivers from the roadways. Th e crackdown is called Drunk Driving. Over the Limit. Under Arrest. It’s un-derwritten by a grant from the Kansas Department of Trans-portation.

“Th e K-State Police De-partment will be aggressively patrolling for impaired driv-ers and unrestrained drivers around the K-State commu-nity during this period,” said Capt. Don Stubbings.

Alcohol-related crashes kill three people and injure an-other 61 each day on Kansas roads. According to the state Department of Transporta-tion, if you are involved in an alcohol-related crash -- in any capacity -- you are two and a half times more likely to be injured and four and a half times more likely to be seri-ously injured or killed than if you are involved in a crash in which alcohol is not deter-mined to be a factor. Th e ratio of death to injury in alcohol-related crashes is almost four times higher than the death-to-injury ratio for crashes not involving alcohol.

Drunk driving. Over the limit. Under arrest.
