Judy Black knows the chal-lenges of being homeless from a time when the inside of a van was her bed.

“I lived in my minivan and everything I owned was ei-ther in it or in a shed,” she said.

Black, a disabled senior citizen and volunteer at the Community Compassion Network of Mount Pleas-ant, told students about her eight-month homeless journey during a candlelight vigil Wednesday night. The vigil was part of Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week.

The vigil, organized by the Volunteer Center, was held outside Charles V. Park Li-brary and featured several guest speakers who shared

their experiences.“I usually slept in well-

populated areas such as the hospital parking lot,” Black said.

She said changing clothes in a gas station restroom and scrounging for resources av-erage people simply buy was hard, but being homeless taught her a lot.

One of the main topics of the night was how home-lessness affects people of all walks of life, including stu-dents.

Mid Michigan Commu-nity College student Alyssa Basney spoke about how family issues forced her to move from house to house and even into a tent in a friend’s backyard. She said she learned how to live using survival skills.

Central Michigan Univer-sity’s website redesign will rev-olutionize access to content, said Vice President for Infor-mation Technology and Chief Information Officer Roger Rehm.

Rehm said one of the main goals of the project is to es-tablish a web structure where things are easily found. He said

people in the specific CMU community will be directed to a website different from the general public where they will sign in and have access to all of the goods and services in one place.

“It’s like iCentral on ste-roids,” he said.

Rehm said CMU decided to partner with Blue Chip Con-sulting Group in Ohio, for the website redesign primar-ily because there was more

work to be done than could be achieved through campus re-sources. He said Blue Chip was selected through a competitive request.

The cost of the website rede-sign is $550,000 to be paid over six installments plus travel ex-penses, according to a docu-ment Central Michigan Life obtained through the Freedom of Information Act. The web task force said these are one-time funds.

Mary Jane Flanagan, execu-tive assistant to the president, said University President George Ross and Provost Gary Shapiro made the decision to redesign the website, and Sha-piro appointed the web task force. She said CMU is where it should be in the middle of the development phase.

The website was supposed to be up in August, but Rehm said in an email by mid-sum-mer the number of web pages

to be migrated grew to more than 50,000.

“The complexity of those pages, as well as the sheer number of them, resulted in the delay,” he said.

The way the web structure is set up now, people have to know where information is al-ready before they can find it, Rehm said. For example, infor-mation about program events

“When you’re going 80 miles an hour in a car, you miss the flower on the side of the road. When you’re hiking you can cover 20 miles a day max, and often-times when you’re enclosed by a wall of trees, you don’t see as much or meet as many people,” he said. “With biking you can stop and see that flower. You can cover a fair amount of ground with biking and see a lot of people and interact with the landscape.”

Francek said his group took tents but never had an opportunity to use them.

“We sent them home after a while,” he said.

The group came to count

on the generosity of strang-ers. Francek said his party stayed in garages, firehous-es and jails. Often the first people they approached would take them in. Some-times their hosts would let them shower, feed them and even give them money for the road.

“We encountered people that often didn’t have a lot that gave not out of their surplus, but out of their ev-eryday budget,” he said.

At 7 p.m. Thursday night, Francek gave a presentation in “The Tomb,” a study room in the basement of Larzelere Hall, attended by about 40 people. The presentation was the first installment in

the revival of the “Fireside Chat” series, an Honors Pro-gram tradition in the `70s and `80s.

“He was great,” said Free-land senior Kyle Terwillegar, who does public relations for the Honors Program. “We had a great turnout. When I walked in I was pleasantly surprised to see the room full. He had a lot of lessons to pass on that we can use not only as honors students, but as people moving for-ward with our lives.”

Eaton Rapids freshman Krista Kerby said although she would not consider bik-ing across the country, she found Francek’s presenta-tion interesting.

“He opened my eyes and made me realize I need to go out and do things before I settle in,” she said.

Francek and his group hoped to discover America in a unique way. He said they gained a rich taste of the diverse regions and in-habitants ranging from the bluegrass of the Appala-chians to the agriculture of the high plains.

“You can’t imagine how much you would appreci-ate a roof over your head or being able to sleep in a bed, because we usually just slept on the ground if we were in-doors,” he said. “To have hot

Mark Francek gives triathletes something to be jealous of.

The Central Michigan University professor of geogra-phy led a biking trip around Beaver Island with honors students this summer, but that pales in comparison to his previous accomplishments.

Francek has traveled across the country by bicycle twice. The first time, in 1978, was from Rochester, NY to San Francisco and the second, in 1982, was from Charleston, SC to Vancouver, British Columbia.

His two trips totaled about 5,700 miles.“I would never recommend racing across the country,”

he said. “You want to take in the culture and the natural beauty.”

While riding, Francek said he is able to connect with nature on a level that is almost spiritual.

Faculty had a chance to express concerns about the College of Medicine during a meeting with the Liaison Committee on Medical Edu-cation survey team.

Four faculty represen-tatives met with the three LCME members of the ac-creditation team Tuesday afternoon in Rowe Hall. The faculty gave written con-cerns regarding CMED to the LCME members.

Academic Senate Chair-man and Teacher Educa-tion and Professional De-velopment Professor Jim McDonald was responsible for arranging the meeting. He was one of the faculty members who met with LCME and was responsible for choosing the three oth-ers who attended: Political

Science Professor James Hill and Physician Assistant faculty members Ahmad Hakemi and John Lopes.

“I thought it went fairly well,” Lopes said. “I think it was a very cordial meeting.”

The LCME was on campus Sunday through Thursday of this week, deciding whether CMED can move further to-ward academic accredita-tion.

Hill said each faculty member was chosen to help as an expert in a different area. Lopes and Hakemi both understand the medi-cal world, he said.

“We each took a role in the issues,” Hill said. “I’m an at-torney so I understand legal issues. I’ve worn many hats at this university so I under-stand the institutional side to it.”

is located at cmich.edu, while the option to pay bills online is located at iCentral.

Rehm said all the informa-tion on iCentral will be at us-ers’ fingertips with one login, so they do not have to hop back and forth between web-sites. The public website at cmich.edu will have a lot less content and it will be easier to find things, he said.

“We’re going to be basically giving everyone a dashboard where that information is at their fingertips,” he said.

All of CMU will have a whole lot more control over its web-site, not just University Com-munications, Rehm said.

Derek van der Merwe, senior associate athletic director, said the web task force recognized early that there is potential for exponential growth on the

web, and this project is prepar-ing CMU for the future. He said the website now cannot func-tionally support all the new technologies.

“This is CMU being proac-tive and anticipating what will happen,” he said.

Renee Walker, associate vice president of public relations and marketing, said numerous enhancements to the func-tionality of the website will prepare CMU for future tech-nology opportunities. She said it will be more accessible on smartphones and tablets.

Flanagan said search func-tionality improvements will benefit everyone. She said CMU will improve structure around website navigation to make it easier to find every-thing.

“We really believe this proj-ect is going to result in more robust search functionality,” she said.

Rehm said the website re-design would not dramatically

affect the IT department.“We’re using the same tech-

nologies we’ve always used,” he said.

Rochester sophomore Erik Nowak said he thinks the web-site redesign is a step toward the future for CMU. He said he has not had problems with the website in the past, but he thinks the redesign would make it easier for people to find information on iCentral.

“The fact that they could put more information on one web-site instead of two websites would make it easier for stu-dents to find what they need,” he said.

Scottville sophomore Rosie Mavis said she uses smart-phones a lot, so the project would make the CMU website more accessible to her.

“I think it would just make (the website) easier to access on campus if you’re not by a computer,” she said.

“The strongest piece of advice I can give someone who may be homeless is that you can never give up,” she said.

Basney said looking for re-sources and assistance with

food and shelter is a must, along with remaining optimistic and keeping a positive attitude.

Some students who attended the previous night’s Cardboard City event, where students vol-unteered to sleep outside in boxes for one night, said they came back to hear survivor sto-ries and support awareness al-together.

“Homelessness is definitely a huge topic that needs to be ad-dressed,” said South Lyon junior Kelly Irwin. “A lot of people don’t know just how many people it affects.”

Irwin said she hopes the week’s events educate people and motivate them to volunteer to help others who may be in rough situations.

Raising awareness was the ul-timate goal of the night.

“Many of the people we’re surrounded by most of the time come from privileged back-grounds and don’t necessarily know a lot about this issue,” said Warren senior Thomas Tren-kamp.

food instead of peanut but-ter sandwiches just made us appreciate the luxuries of life.”

For Francek, the uncer-tainty was thrilling. He said it was wonderful not know-ing what he would see and

who he would meet.On the first trip, the

group carried vials full of salty water from the Atlan-tic Ocean with the intent of emptying them when they reached the Pacific – a meeting of the two oceans. But after all those miles, Francek said the mixing of water wasn’t most meaning-ful thing.

“All your effort — dreams

about your eventual goal, once you attain it — it’s al-most anticlimactic,” he said. “I was grateful to make it across America, and it’s not like, ‘So what?’ but it was the day-to-day that was the real highlight of the trip. The process of getting to the endpoint is the blessing.”

Hill said they helped fill in missing gaps of information for the LCME team. It was dif-ficult putting together infor-mation to discuss with LCME regarding CMED, he said, be-cause the CMED documents in the library were released only two days before the team arrived.

Lopes said he discussed the CMED graduate process with the LCME because it was his area of expertise.

“We all had input in the presentation. We just brought some expertise to the com-mittee in helping Dr. McDon-ald understand the lingo and standards of medical pro-grams,” Lopes said.

Lopes said the discussion between the group and the LCME is confidential and he could not repeat what was said in the meeting. Only the four faculty and three LCME mem-bers were in the room, he said.

He would not comment on what opinion the fac-ulty shared with LCME in the meeting.

“That information is be-tween us and the visitors,” Lopes said.

Hakemi said LCME accred-its all the medical schools in the U.S. and Canada. CMU went through a multi-step process, first paying $25,000 to apply, then did paperwork, he said.

Hakemi said the LCME team prepares a report and submits it to a 17-member LCME board that will ulti-mately make the decision on Feb. 7, 2012. CMU will get a call a few days later, he said.

“If they are approved, then at that time, CMU can start ac-cepting students,” he said. “If they don’t get approved, they have to restart all over again.”

CMED is scheduled to open in the summer of 2013.

Several weeks ago, the Aca-demic Senate voted to halt further development of CMED curriculum, although it is un-certain if the A-Senate has the authority to do so, or if the vote will serve as a symbolic disap-proval.

Director of Public Relations Steve Smith said the LCME will issue its report in early 2012.

Thanksgiving dinner will come early this year for pa-trons of the Isabella Com-munity Soup Kitchen.

Community Compassion Network is partnering with Mount Pleasant Communi-ty Church and the Isabella Community Soup Kitchen to put together a Thanks-giving dinner from 5 to 7 p.m. on Sunday at the soup kitchen, 621 S. Adams St.

A traditional Thanksgiv-ing dinner will be served, including baked and deep fried turkey, potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberries, pumpkin pie and other des-serts.

Brian Horanoff started the event seven years ago at Labor Ready, before its clo-sure, as an outreach to its at-risk workers. He wanted to continue the event at the local soup kitchen.

“We cook lots of food to make sure everyone leaves with some leftovers,” Horanoff said.

This will be the event’s second year at the Isabella Community Soup Kitchen.

Executive Director of Isabella Community Soup Kitchen Genny Sobaski gave CCN permission to hold the event at the soup kitchen.

“The patrons enjoy an extra meal,” Sobaski said. “We’re really thankful the Mount Pleasant communi-

ty is doing this for our pa-trons.”

Food will be provided and cooked by volunteers from Mount Pleasant Commu-nity Church and CCN will provide leadership, said Danielle Ismirle, CCN Board Chair and Soup Kitchen li-aison.

Twenty-nine percent of Isabella County residents are at or below the poverty level, so people struggle with providing food for their families, Ismirle said.

“We are providing them with the Thanksgiving ex-perience that most of us may take for granted,” she said. “This is one of the few days each year that the soup kitchen provides three

meals in one day for their guests.”

Last year, Mount Pleasant Community Church vol-unteers served about 120 guests at the event. This year it is anticipating serv-ing 175 people or more, Horanoff said.

Horanoff said he plans to continue holding the event as long as he can.

“I would like to grow the event each year and also provide other din-ners throughout the year,” he said. “God called me to deep fry turkeys and feed people in need. The rest of the event sort of developed a life of its own.”

Thursday did not pro-vide ideal conditions to be outside pedaling a bike, let alone for 24 hours straight.

Freezing temperatures and snow did not stop the brothers of social fraternity Pi Kappa Phi in raising mon-ey and awareness for dis-abilities through their event Pedals for PUSH.

Starting Thursday, at least one of two stationary bikes between Anspach and Pearce Halls was pedaled continuously until 9 a.m. to-day.

All Pi Kappa Phi brothers were required to sign-up for a two-hour shift to ride one of the bikes. Saginaw junior Chad Jacobs showed no sign of slowing down an hour into his shift.

“I’m a little tired, and I can’t feel my toes, but I feel good,” he said.

The bike he sat on was flanked by two tables of food for sale to help raise addi-tional money.

“It’s great because the cof-fee was donated by Biggby Coffee (210 S. Mission St.) and the cost of pizza was in part sponsored by Domino’s Pizza (706 S. Mission St.),” Jacobs said.

The camaraderie and laughter of the brothers was

in stark contrast to the stu-dents hurrying by.

“We’re having a good time. Because it’s for a good cause, we get to be with our broth-ers and meet new people,” said Farmington Hills senior Spencer Haworth. “So far, we’ve had a great turnout from both the Greek and non-Greek community.”

In addition, Pennies4Push, a sub-event tied to Pedals for PUSH, challenged the Greek community to earn points through penny donations and by riding the bike. The winning fraternity or soror-ity received 10 percent of to-

tal funds to be donated to a philanthropy of their choice.

Five hours into the event, about $100 had been raised between the penny war and donations to ride.

Event coordinator and Pi Kappa Phi’s PUSH America Executive, Jacob Comfort, said he felt the event was go-ing very well.

“I expect we should raise a few hundred by tomorrow morning, as more people will be involved and riding tonight,” the Ubly sopho-more said.

Brothers called out to passing students to ask for

donations, sometimes sing-ing in hopes of convincing a passerby to dig out some change.

Pedals for PUSH is Pi Kap-pa Phi’s first event on cam-pus, but Comfort said they have big plans for spring, in-cluding a date auction and a fundraising dinner.

Even as the temperatures will continue to drop as night falls, Comfort said he isn’t worried.

“We’re still going to do it,” he said. “We’re not going to stop.”

Former Vice President of University Relations Ter-rence “Terry” J. Carey, 88, died Friday, Nov. 11 at his home in Mount Pleasant.

Services were held Mon-day at Charles R. Lux Family Funeral Home, 2300 S. Lin-coln Road. Memorial contri-butions were to be made to Central Michigan University Athletics, Charles V. Park Li-brary and Sacred Heart Par-ish, 302 S. Kinney Blvd.

Carey was born March 27, 1923, in Mount Pleasant to Joseph P. and Ida M. Carey. He graduated from Mount Pleasant High School in 1941.

The Joseph P. Carey Resi-dence Hall is named af-ter Carey’s father who was chairman of the geography department from 1944 to 1956.

On June 28, 1947 Carey

married Eli-nor “Trix” Wendt at Sa-cred Heart Church.

Trix said as a native of Mount Pleas-ant and an alumnus of CMU, Carey was very much involved at CMU, especial-ly because his father also worked for CMU.

“He was devoted to CMU all of his life,” Trix said.

In 1947, Carey received his Bachelor’s degree from CMU. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy and attended officer training school at Bowling Green and Ohio State Universities. He went on to receive his master’s degree from the University of Michigan and his Ph. D. from Michi-gan State University.

“I love the public,” John-son said. “It’s fun for (us) to put our own spin on things and do it our way. It’s not a job — it’s an art.”

Moore said she knows what her clients want, and she’s able to express that without restraints.

“I love seeing the expres-sion on my clients’ faces when they are super happy with my work,” she said. “I’ve loved doing hair ever since I was little — it all started with my Barbies.”

Salon 3 Twelve has a com-bination of clientele from Central Michigan Univer-sity and people from the community.

Johnson said the loca-tion is convenient for both former clients, because the move was not far, and for CMU students because of its close proximity to the Towers Residence Complex.

The stylists provide ser-vices including styling, highlights, lowlights, col-ors and perms. Malibu and other treatments, eyebrow waxing and blowouts are also available.

The salon also offers three high-pressure tanning beds with facials, equiva-lent to a level two or three bed. Eventually, Johnson said they hope to expand to four beds.

To avoid long wait times, Hutchins said they will call customers 10 minutes be-fore their beds are ready.

All three stylists agreed they have one thing in com-mon aside from loving to do hair — at work they all have a smile on their face.

“People come as custom-ers and leave as friends,” she said.

By Melissa Beauchamp | Staff Reporter

Courtney Johnson and Rachelle Moore teamed-up and used their past experiences to start a new business.

The pair opened Salon 3 Twelve, 312 W. Broomfield Road, in September.

Johnson, a Mount Pleasant resident, and Moore, who lives in Stanton, previously worked together at Grondin’s Hair Center, 4104 E. Blue Grass Road.

Johnson has been doing hair for six years and Moore has eleven years under her belt.

Despite the economy, Johnson said people aren’t eliminating sprucing up their locks from their budgets.

“It’s an escape away from their stressful lives and the economy,” she said.

Salon coordinator Lila Hutchins said it’s always a fun and relaxed environment at the salon.

“We laugh at least once a day,” she said. She said it is enjoyable to see the different trends and

hair styles every day. For the holidays, she said they are getting hair tinsel, which is popular among college students.

Ignite Leadership will offer students the chance to learn about their indi-vidual strengths and weak-nesses as well as leader-ship skills.

The Leadership Insti-tute hosts the three-week program that gives partici-pants the opportunity to take the leadership prac-tices inventory survey. It is taken by each participant, as well as their chosen peers, such as bosses or subordinates, and mea-sures the five elements of Kouzes and Posner’s trans-formational leadership model.

Those five elements are: model the way, inspire a shared vision, challenge the process, enable others to act and encourage the heart.

“Kouzes and Posner were two researchers who went out and interviewed 1,200 people from all walks of life,” said Eric Buschlen, assistant professor of rec-reation, parks and lei-sure services. “They asked these people to tell them about when they were at their best.”

Kouzes and Posner took this information and built the transformational lead-ership model, which is de-signed to help people suc-ceed in leadership.

The program provides participants with the tools to take action from the survey and teaches them how to lead effec-tively.

Ignite Leadership is cur-rently accepting 10 sopho-mores, juniors or seniors into the program.

Ten banquet-sized tables filled with more than 200 items raised more than $2,000 to help save Theodore Roethke’s child-hood home Thursday.

Graduate Assistant Michelle Campbell said the goal was reached before 2 p.m.

Campbell, one of the vol-unteers at the auction, is also a board member of Friends of Theodore Roethke, the organi-zation the money raised is ben-efitting.

“The Roethke program and center is an important cultural addition to the broader mid-Michigan area,” said David Ling, Isabella County Commission chair and former political sci-ence professor.

Ling came to the auction with his wife because they are good friends with Ronald Primeau, professor of English language and literature and avid Roethke house supporter.

“As a result, we became more aware and interested in sup-porting the cause,” David said.

The ballroom was filled with many items ranging from books, CDs, a tea set, ornaments, origi-nal paintings, tickets to sport-

ing events, jewelry and a dinner for six at University President George Ross’s home with his wife valued at $600.

Political Science Professor James Hill said he bid on just about everything.

“Auctions are my favorite things,” Hill said.

City Commissioner Kathy Ling said she thought the auc-tion was benefitting a great cause and was also a great op-portunity for Christmas shop-ping.

“We’re celebrating Christmas the day after Thanksgiving,” Kathy said.

Graduate Assistant Regan Schaeffer said she and a few oth-er dedicated graduate assistants spent Sunday afternoon cata-loging a portion of the items.

“We searched for each item on Amazon and decided the minimum bids from there,” Schaeffer said. “There are some opportunities to get some good deals.”

Leadership Institute Coordi-nator Dan Gaken won the din-ner at the Ross residence for $80. He was the only eligible bid on the prize, although a faculty member bid $2.99.

Auction raises $2,000 for Roethke’s childhood home

“The Roethke program and center is an important cultural addition to the

broader mid-Michigan area.” David Ling, Isabella County Commission chair

While the limit was initially because of the cost of the pro-gram, it is also best for the program to limit the number of participants so they build a close rapport within their small group, said Dan Gaken, coordi-nator of the Leadership Insti-tute.

He hopes the program grows to facilitate students in further developing higher level leader-ship skills and initiatives.

“The program is still in the testing time, but we are looking to expand each year,” said Grand Rapids junior Jamie Herrygers.

Ignite Leadership was started by Herrygers when she was looking to further progress her involvement with the Leader-ship Institute.

“The program does not in-clude participation in specifi-cally-related CMU courses,” she said. “It is a program of personal

self-development.”Herrygers said she has sur-

passed her goal of receiving 50 applications for Ignite Leader-ship. The applications will be narrowed down to 10 through an anonymous process.

The program will be held Feb.

Six-year-old Gabby Mout-satson said she dreams of becoming famous and dis-playing her artwork in gal-leries.

Gabby said art interests her because she can create a story through pictures.

“I’ve made a story about a tiger before,” she said.

Moutsatson was one of three students who partici-pated in a mono-printmak-ing class Wednesday at Art Reach, 111. E. Broadway St.

Cindy Smith, who taught art at Mount Pleasant schools for 33 years, was the teacher for the class which taught students a way to bring pictures to life.

She engaged the students by discussing mono-print, a unique art form involving images and lines that can only be made once.

In mono-print, no two images are alike, she said.

“I like the variety,” she said. “Everyone has some-thing different.”

Smith said mono-print has a quick response, which allows multiple attempts if it doesn’t turn out the way the student wants.

“I like the excitement they have when something turns out,” she said.

Kari Chrenka, education and program coordinator at Art Reach, said Smith par-ticipates in various other

activities with Art Reach. As a current Education

Board member at Art Reach, Smith has donated a lot of time to show kids how to be an artist.

“She has a lot of experi-ence,” she said. “She gives that experience to the chil-dren to teach them about art.”

Eleven-year-old Mount Pleasant resident Nicole Noch created a goldfish and an owl.

Noch said art is one of her

favorite hobbies.“I draw what comes to

mind,” she said. “I can ex-press myself. You don’t have to listen to anyone.”

Noch said art allows her to journey to her own place.

Seven-year-old Nola Boyle of Mount Pleasant created a bird playing the drums.

“I like to draw,” she said. “I like to draw eyeballs a lot.”

“Twilight: Breaking Dawn - Part 1” lived up to my expecta-tions, but my expectations were very low.

I will admit it, I’ve read all four books and have now seen the four movies that have been released. How-ever, I don’t enjoy them. In fact, I really dislike the mes-sage they give to teenage girls.

According to the story, even if you are an average-looking girl with no personality, two attrac-tive men will fight over you, and you will eventually get married at 18. Oh, and this all happens just after moving to a new town where you hardly know anyone.

This isn’t a message I want teenage girls to be receiving. While it may have worked for Bella, I can almost guarantee it won’t work for the majority of the world.

That is why the books both-ered me. The movies, on the

other hand, are a completely different story.

The acting was sub-par, and the special effects were even worse. I’m not sure what the budget for the movie was, but I feel as though it should have been higher, especially because of how much money they will make opening weekend alone.

There were moments where could see the cameraman lose his balance, and in one scene, the green screen was so obvi-ous I’m pretty sure I could do a better job, and I have no movie-making experience.

I’m also pretty confident when I say Edward and Bella are the most awkward couple known to man, and let me tell you, my life is solely comprised of awkward moments. I know awkward when I see it.

However, they did a relatively good job entertaining those of us who don’t actually want to be in the theater. Some of the jokes even make fun of “Twilight” it-self. So, fellas, let this be a glim-

mer of hope if your girlfriend is dragging you to the movie this weekend.

And even if you don’t catch the jokes, the poor special effects and bad acting will have you in stitches. At one point, Bella asked Edward why he couldn’t tell she was happy. I laughed because anyone would be con-fused. The girl can only show one emotion: complete disgust.

After some thought, I have decided my two favorite parts of the movie, in addition to the humor: the soundtrack and the “Hunger Games” trailer that played before the movie began.

An avid sports fan, Carey par-ticipated on both the CMU foot-ball team and the men’s track and field team. He was honored in CMU’s Hall of Fame class of 2005.

Carey coached football at St. Johns High School from 1947 to 1952. He went on to coach at Niles High School from 1952 to 1959 where he was the assistant principal for two years. He went on to become the principal of St. Louis High School before serv-ing as the director of admissions at MSU from 1961 to 1970.

In 1970, Carey returned to Mount Pleasant and became

the vice president of university relations and board of trustees secretary at CMU. He retired in 1982.

Former Professional Ad-ministrator Marykaye Murphy worked with Carey for the 12 years he was in his position.

She said she enjoyed working with Carey, who she said was very much involved in CMU development and admission of-fices.

“He was a terrific person to work for,” Murphy said.

Murphy also spoke of Carey’s dedication to CMU.

“He was CMU through and through,” Murphy said. “He wouldn’t miss a ballgame if he had to.”

After retiring in 1982, Terry and Trix spent summers at In-

termediate Lake and Central Lake and winters in North Myr-tle Beach, SC.

Carey is survived by his wife of 64 years, Trix Carey; two sons, Mike (Sue) Carey of Mount Pleasant and Mark (Kathy) Carey of Grand Rapids; three grandchildren, Shannon (Mark) Dillon of Sacramento, Calif, Erin (Andy) Schor of Lansing and Sean (Katie) Carey of Lansing; four great-grandchildren, Ryan, Hannah, Sarah and James; his brother, Paul (Nancy) Carey of Rochester; and two nephews, Jeffrey DeLong and Michael Murphy.

He was preceded in death by two sisters, Patricia Murphy and Betty DeLong.

Battle of the Bands raises funds for two nonprofit organizations

Faculty Bean, Roberson read poetry, short stories in Baber Room

By Odille ParkerStaff Reporter

PR Central partnered with Central Michigan University’s To Write Love on Her Arms UChapter to host its 10th an-nual Battle of the Bands.

About 50 people gathered from 9 to 11:30 p.m. Wednesday at Blackstone Bar and Grill, 212 W. Michigan St., to watch three bands compete.

President of PR Central Re-becca Kerster said the Battle of the Bands is PR Central’s big-gest fundraiser and they part-ner with a new campus orga-nization each year to split the profit.

“Our goal is to just provide cheap entertainment for a good cause,” the Hartland senior said. “Partnering with TWLO-HA was an integrative idea with the music theme and we hope to (help) further their cause.”

According to its website, TW-LOHA is a non profit meant to encourage, inspire and invest in the treatment and recovery

to those suffering with depres-sion, addiction and suicide. Chantell LaForest is a member of PR Central and the president of CMU’s TWLOHA UChapter and said she was happy both organizations could benefit from one event.

“TWLOHA has become an international movement and each UChapter aims to embody its vision and work with it on a campus level,” the Escanaba junior said. PR Central is a non profit, student-run public relations firm comprised of 18 members that work with organizations at CMU and within the Mount Pleasant community.

It is a part of the Public Rela-tions Student Society of Amer-ica, which is a professional de-velopment registered student organization.

“PRSSA is more about pro-fessional development and a learning opportunity,” Kerster said. “PR Central is more about gaining practical experience and actually working with the

clients.”Kerster said the event raised

$186. This came from the $5 ballot cost to vote for a band and raffle tickets, which were sold at $1 for three. The prizes included gift cards to local shops and restaurants.

The visiting bands were Charlatan, Priorities, and West and Run. Charlatan and Priori-ties were both from East Lan-sing and were the first to per-form, each featuring around five songs of a similar genre.

West and Run, a Grand Rap-ids four-piece, took first place.

Blanchard senior Julian Lobert said he caught West and Run’s last few songs and thought they sounded great.

“All my friends were here so I decided to check it out,” Lobert said. “It was pretty cool. I know nothing about the cause, but this was a great way to do it.”

TWLOHA UChapter meets at 7 p.m. Sundays in Anspach Hall 151.

[email protected]


Poets and prose writers will share their work at the Central Review reading at 6 p.m. today in Charles V. Park Library’s Ba-ber Room.

“We received a lot of sub-missions this year,” said John Priest, assistant editor of Cen-tral Review and Elk Rapids se-nior.

The review will reveal the winners of this semesters’ priz-es at the reading.

Priest said the undergradu-ate literary magazine is pub-lishing more work by writers and visual artists than in previ-ous semesters.

Priest estimated that Central Review is publishing the work of 16 writers and four photog-raphers.

The selection process in-volves all of the editors read-

ing the submissions individu-ally and deciding which pieces they like best, Priest said. After this individual process, the editors meet to discuss their favorites.

“Usually our picks match up, but when they don’t, we arm wrestle it out for a few hours and the winner decides,” Priest said.

Fiction and non-fiction sub-missions are limited to 4,000 words and poems do not have a length requirement.

Assistant Editor Leigh Ja-juga hopes to make the literary journal as accessible as pos-sible.

The Mount Pleasant junior said the selection process is very involved.

“There are so many different styles of writing,” Jajuga said.

Priest and Jajuga agreed publishing student work in the undergraduate magazine is

important and wish that they could publish more.

The magazine accepts sub-missions of poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction and pho-tography.

Jajuga said selecting cover art is an important decision re-lated to the construction of the journal.

“It’s important to have an at-tractive cover that people will want to pick up,” Jajuga said.

Priest and Jajuga both hope a good number of people come to the reading tonight.

“The reading will be a great opportunity to celebrate each other’s work,” Jajuga said.

The magazine publishes ev-ery semester and Priest said he encourages everyone to sub-mit work.

Student poetry, prose writers to read Central Review work today in Library


The themes at a reading Thursday shifted between absurd humor and tragic loss.

More than 150 filled the Charles V. Park Library Ba-ber Room to watch Assistant Professor of English language and literature Jeffrey Bean read his poetry, at one point striking a pose depicting his daughter’s conversation with a river otter.

Meanwhile, Assistant Pro-fessor of English Language and Literature Matt Roberson read short stories depicting loss.

“It was great to hear new stuff they’ve just wrote,” said Darrin Doyle, assistant pro-fessor of English language and literature. “It makes me want to go home to write.”

Doyle said he was happy with the support he saw from students.

“I love the work Matt is doing with repetition,” said graduate student Ben Lam-bright. “It is interesting to de-fine someone by what they’re

not.”Lambright said Bean’s read-

ing reminded him of a manic street feature with soul.

Bean received his Bachelor of Arts in music at Oberlin College and his Masters of Fine Arts from the University of Alabama.

He is from Bloomington, Indiana, which he incorpo-rated into the theme of his final poem.

Lambright said Bean’s work has appeared in many pub-lications ending in “review,” listed several of lengthy list of Bean’s published works.

Roberson holds a PhD. in American literature.

“Matt strokes a low note and Bean strokes a high note in your heart,” said Denise Fanning, artist and wife of Robert Fanning, assistant professor of English language and literature.

Bean read of past experi-ences while also reciting the work of another whose work stuck and resonated in his mind.

Bean deemed one of the poems he read “sassy.”

Fanning especially singled out the rhyme in Bean’s verse for praise.

“Bean’s work has a beau-tiful rhythm to heighten awareness of life situations with eloquent and beautiful languages,” Fanning said.

Roberson said he wanted to read something he wrote re-cently, and chose from a 60-page story and several som-ber stories. Two of the pieces were about missing spouses.

The first story was written with the intention of using “didn’t” in every line, which many considered a success.

“Matt’s rare heavy-moving quality feels really human,” Fanning said. “Bean assesses humanity through humor, beauty and natural rhythm of language.”

The evening began and ended with Doyle thanking those in attendance at the last College of Humanities and Social and Behavioral Sciences reading of the fall semester.

CHARLOTTE BODAK/PHOTOGRAPHEREnglish Language and Literature Assistant Professor Jeffrey Bean talks and acts out his daughter’s reaction to seeing a stuffed otter at the Chippewa Nature Center in Midland Thursday evening in the Baber Room of the Charles V. Park Library.

A congressional spending bill was approved this week with an at-tached rider that would ultimately undermine the school lunch stan-dards the U.S. Department of Ag-riculture proposed earlier this year.

The USDA had proposed limit-ing the use of potatoes, putting new restrictions on sodium and boost-ing the use of whole grains. The bill would block or delay all of those ef-forts.

What has people most outraged is that under the proposal, tomato paste, popular in school lunches as pizza sauce, would become a vegetable. Currently, if two table-spoons of tomato sauce is on a slice of pizza, it qualifies as a serving of vegetables.

In its recommendation, the USDA had wanted to up the vege-table standard to at least a half-cup of pizza sauce.

But lobbyists from the American Frozen Food Institute convinced members of the House Appropria-tions Committee to strike out that half-cup rule and other school lunch regulations, such as the re-strictions on sodium and servings

of starchy vegetables.Nutritionists agree the whole

effort to validate pizza sauce as a vegetable is similar to the Reagan administration’s efforts in the ‘80s to classify ketchup as a vegetable to cut costs.

And now in 2011, that is what the whole thing is about — saving money. The USDA estimates all of the nutritional changes originally proposed would increase the cost of each lunch by about 14 cents.

With austerity measures already stripping public institutions of needed funding, lobbyists have found a way to take advantage of reduced funds in order to pursue their financial agenda. Their gains however, come at a steep cost to public health.

According to The Center for Dis-ease Control, 33.8 percent of U.S. citizens are obese, and approxi-mately 17 percent (or 12.5 million) of American children and ado-lescents ages 2 to 19 years old are obese.

“We are not saying pizza is a vegetable,” said Corey Henry, the spokesman for the American Fro-

zen Food Institute, which supports the bill. “What we are saying is if you serve a slice of pizza with 2 ta-blespoons of vegetable paste, it can be an important way to deliver a number of vegetables that children will actually consume.”

They are actually saying that the legislation they managed to buy is going to keep frozen pizzas go-ing into children’s bodies for a long time. Subsidized school lunches make up a substantial portion of low-income students’ daily meals and taxpayer dollars should go to-ward providing healthy meals for those least likely to receive them at home.

When it comes to accounting for nutrition, pepperoni pizza will count for every category of the ridiculous food pyramid it repre-sents. Cash-strapped schools will be able to justify feeding junk food to students in lieu of vegetables, and factory farms and frozen food conglomerates will pocket more public money.

Sacrificing children’s health for industry interests is just a bit too much to stomach.

OWS ruling legally sound

On Tuesday, New York Supreme Court Justice Michael Stallman ruled in a case temporarily upholding New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s order to evict the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) protestors in Zuccotti Park in order to clean it up.

After the cleanup, the protestors were allowed to return, but were told they were unable to bring back tents, sleeping bags or large personal items. Protestors are also no longer allowed to sleep in the park.

At the heart of the case is whether or not these rules, as established by the owner of Zuccotti Park, a private-ly-owned public space, violate the protestors’ First Amendment rights.

Quite clearly, the answer is no. Judge Stallman cited the recently-de-cided Supreme Court case of Snyder v. Phelps, noting that “protected speech is not equally permissible in all places and at all times.”

The Supreme Court’s guidelines on time, place and manner restrictions have four components: It must be content neutral, narrowly tailored, serve a significant government inter-est and leave open ample alternative channels for communication.

The restriction is narrowly tai-lored — the protestors simply cannot bring in tents, sleeping bags, large items that interfere with the use of the park by other people and they cannot sleep there. Other than that, the protestors can protest for as long as they want.

The restriction serves a significant government interest in that having tents and sleeping items had become both a health and fire hazard.

The fourth guideline does not even apply here, as the restrictions do not prohibit the protestors from commu-nicating their views.

As for being content neutral, the guidelines themselves do not dis-criminate between the OWS protes-tors or anybody else. However, OWS lawyers have argued that since the rules were established after the pro-tests began, they are illegal. As long as the owners of the park enforce the rules against everybody, the regula-tions will be easily upheld.

The ruling in this case was simply a ruling on a restraining order to keep the rules from being carried out. To rule in favor of the protestors, they would have had to show that the rules needed to be struck down immedi-ately in order to protect First Amend-ment rights.

Quite simply, their lawyers failed to indicate how these rules violate their Freedom of Speech and Assembly. They are still allowed to protest and occupy the park, they just are not allowed to sleep there, and not having the ability to bring a tent into a park is not a violation of the First Amend-ment.

When the case goes before the court for the final ruling, the outcome will be the same — the rules enacted do not infringe on the right to protest, and they are necessary for the safety of those in the park.

Caitlin CheeversStaff Reporter

Choose fair trade for

holiday giftsThe holidays are right around the

corner, so almost everyone is thinking about the same things: family, food and gifts.

When I buy gifts for my friends and family, I try to be conscious not only of what the person wants, but of who is impacted by my purchase. Because of this, I try to buy fair trade items to give to my loved ones for the holidays.

My favorite aspect of fair trade gift-giving is that many organizations provide information about the person who made the item. After all, people, not machines, almost always make the fair items we buy. Larger compa-nies don’t convey this fact as much as smaller organizations can.

Krochet Kids International, for ex-ample, employs women in Northern Uganda and Peru to crochet hats, and then sells them online. The woman who makes the hat signs her name on the tag, allowing customers to look her up on the website. Not only is there a picture of her, but also how Krochet Kids is changing her life, and what she uses the money for. You can even write her a thank-you note, which will actually be sent to Uganda or Peru. The hats are a perfect gift for the hipster in your family.

Invisible Children’s Mend program is very similar, but with handbags. You can choose from several styles and colors of durable purses, mes-senger bags and totes, which have the name of the woman who made it stitched on the inside. You can then look her up on the Invisible Children website and learn more about her. It makes the purchase much more personal.

Another more local option is Heart Cry International, located on the cor-ner of Franklin and Bellows streets. They have orphanages and street cen-ters set up in third-world countries across the globe, and employ women in Uganda to roll paper into beads to make jewelry. They also make bags out of dried corn stalks. Both of these options are available at the Student Book Exchange, which cuts the price of shipping. They are great options for the women in your family.

While these are a few of my favor-ites, I am always looking for new fair trade options, so don’t feel as though you need to limit yourself to these three.

Whether or not you do your holiday shopping with any of these three organizations, I encourage you to look beyond CMU sweatshirts and wool socks. Purchases with a lasting impact will warm your heart, which is especially helpful as the weather gets colder.

After all, people in third-world countries deserve to celebrate their holidays just as much as we do.

A college without consentA brief history of the College of

Medicine (and what it has taught us): September 2008 – The CMU Board

of Trustees approves CMED. No one outside the Board or administration knows this topic will even be dis-cussed.

May 2010 – The Board of Trustees meets to discuss land for the CMED and forgets to notify the public. A re-quest for public comment at the end of the meeting is met with silence by a room filled with administrators.

February 2011 – The opening of CMED is delayed one year, ensuring CMU will pay more than $1 million in salaries to CMED deans for another year with no students.

Spring to Summer 2011 – George Ross bemoans “tough times” in Michi-gan and state appropriation cuts, fail-ing to note this is negated by a tuition hike. Also not discussed are the $220 million in net unrestricted assets held by CMU. At the same time, CMU of-fers a package to faculty that would lead to a drop in take-home pay of thousands of dollars a year.

Summer 2011 – CMU admits they have enough money to pay what fac-ulty propose — they just don’t want to.

Fall 2011 – CMU’s program prioriti-zation report comes out, listing a num-ber of existing programs as targets for cuts or elimination while CMED is listed as a top priority for funding.

Fall 2011 – Director of Public Rela-tions Steve Smith states no money from CMU’s operating budget will be used to fund CMED.

Fall 2011 – Deans of all colleges are told by Ross to slash millions of dollars

from existing operating budgets. Fall 2011 – After ignoring numerous

requests to make documents related to CMED public, CMU finally does so in response to three FOIA requests. In-stead of posting the documents on the web, CMU places 2 paper copies on reserve at the library, making access difficult.

November 2011 – Provost Shapiro states CMED funding will come, in part, from “capital reserves included in unrestricted net assets.” Later that same day, Shapiro announces the ad-ministration has made its “final offer” to the faculty.

What does all this tell us? From the beginning, extraordinary steps have been taken to keep faculty and stu-dents in the dark regarding CMED. This has been true from the first meet-ing at which the Board approved CMED, right up to this fall when the administration would not share criti-cal documents until forced to do so through FOIA requests.

Why? Perhaps they want to hide the financial model of CMED. At last check, fundraising was about halfway to the modest goal of $25 million (as a comparison, this spring Western Michigan University’s med school was given a gift of $100 million!).

So where is the money coming from? It’s coming from you and me. Students, your tuition has increased more than 220 percent since 2000. Why are programs you use being asked to slash their budgets by millions, when CMU has a “rainy day’”fund now ex-ceeding $280 million? Why are the fac-ulty being asked to take drastic cuts in

compensation? Because reducing our compensation allows CMU to grow its unrestricted net asset line in the bud-get, which Provost Shapiro just told us will be a source of funding for CMED.

Creative accounting allows Ross to slash our operating budget and shift those funds into another cat-egory. Shapiro claims funding is not coming from tuition or existing programs, yet his prioritization lists a number of existing programs ready to be cut, and CMED is listed as a recipi-ent of further funds. CMED is woefully underfunded and the only way it can possibly get off the ground is to rob the students and faculty.

Another thing this tells us is that CMU has completely abandoned any pretense of shared governance. Its M.O. is clearly to make decisions while we aren’t looking.

In the self-study provided to the LCME, our administration listed the “egalitarian-conservative” climate among faculty as a potential weak-ness.

I would say the real weakness CMU faces is the authoritarian-paternalistic attitude of the Board and the Adminis-tration. Their actions say: “We will tell you what we’re doing (or maybe we won’t) and too bad if you don’t like it”.

Until that weakness is fixed, all stakeholders in the CMU enterprise can expect to face further conflicts.

A higher dose flu shot now available for senior citizens 65 years old and older also means stronger side effects.

The Fluzone High-Dose Shot is approximately four times stronger than the regular vaccination, said Center for Disease Control Spokesman Jeff Diamond.

“As individuals age, their immune response isn’t as robust as it is when they’re younger,” he said. “The stronger dosage elicits a stronger immune response to the flu.”

He said the way a person reacts to the vaccine de-pends on their biological functioning.

Rite Aid, 717 S. Mission St. offers the option of the regu-lar shot and the high- dose shot to their customers.

Rite Aid Pharmacy Man-ager Jai Iserhoth said com-mon side effects include in-

jection site tenderness and redness, arrhythmia, swell-ing and fever.

“It is just a higher, more concentrated shot produc-ing a higher antibody count, so the body responds to the shot stronger when it comes in contact with the flu,” he said.

Rite Aid Pharmacy Tech-nician Amanda Gieche said the higher dosage is only for senior citizens.

“No one necessarily says they don’t want the high dose shot, but generally we do the higher dose because it is safer for them,” she said.

The Central Michigan District Health Department currently does not offer the high dose shot to custom-ers, but the most important thing is that people do get vaccinated, said Commu-nicable Disease Supervisor Mari Pat Terpening.

“The (higher dose) shot is finishing the second year of a three-year trial for ef-

fectiveness,” Terpening said. “Preliminary information suggests that it is effective and may result in increased protection in individuals.”

Fifty percent of people ef-fectively transmit influenza without having any symp-toms, she said.

Terpening said between October 2010 and Septem-ber 2011, 115 children under the age of 18 died from sea-sonal influenza in the U.S.

“Forty-nine percent of those children were healthy with no high-risk medical conditions,” she said.

People who are 65 years

old and older face an in-creased risk of complica-tions, hospitalizations and death, she said.

Although the vaccine is “the single most effective way to keep the flu from spreading,” Diamond also suggests that senior citizens practice good hygiene.

“Many older people live in assisted living, much like a college dorm,” he said. “People are mixing in vari-ous social interactions in a confined space.”

First Book Day to promote youth literacy Sunday in Finch FieldhouseBy Chad MitchellStaff Reporter

First Book President Meredith Clark said her organization’s single mis-sion is to promote lit-eracy by providing from low-income households with their first books. First Book gets some of the funding needed to sup-port those children through fundraising at events like First Book Day to be held Sunday.

The event will be a car-nival event for elementary children and their families. Clark, a Clarkston senior, said she thinks First Book Day’s second event will be a success.

First Book Day will be held from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday in Finch Field-house Room 113. Admit-

tance to the event is free. “There will be carnival games, arts and crafts, painting, as well as Dog Tales and Tale Waggers reading therapy dogs, and Reading with Heroes,” she said, “I believe children will really enjoy all the games that we have planned this year.”

Dog Tales and Tale Wag-gers are two groups that promote literacy by let-ting children read with trained dogs. Fundraising Chair Susan Taylor said she thinks these groups will help children read.

“Children sit with a dog and book of their choice,” the Traverse City senior said. “Petting the dogs while reading to them re-moves a lot of anxiety chil-dren have about reading.”

Reading with Heroes will

feature local firefighters and police officers reading their favorite stories and talking about their involve-ment in the community.

Games and sessions will cost tickets and there will also be a raffle for prizes donated by local business-es.

Vice President Lindsay Adams said the goal of this event is to raise money to help fund the group’s ef-forts.

“All profits will be used to purchase brand new books for children who live in low-income families in the community,” Adams said.

The games and sessions are designed for elementa-ry children, but books will be sold at the event for all reading levels.

Pride.With bowl game eligibility and

Mid-American Conference Champi-onship contentions faded, the final game of Central Michigan’s football season is strictly about the “P” word.

“It’s a pride game and we want to end it right,” said quarterback Ryan Radcliff. “The season has had its ups and downs for sure and you’re only as good as your last game.”

The junior has thrown for more

than 300 yards in back-to-back loss-es and ranks third in the MAC with 3,053 yards and 23 touchdowns this season.

He could reach milestones today when the Chippewas play host to To-ledo at 8 p.m. He needs three passing yards and five pass attempts to move into second and third all-time at CMU for career records respectively.

“Radcliff continues to play very well and I think we had 52 pass at-tempts last week and no sacks, which gives credit to the offensive line, tight ends and running backs who did a

good job blocking,” said head coach Dan Enos.

Offensively, CMU will be with-out freshmen Courtney Williams (knee) and Anthony Garland (an-kle) after they suffered injuries in the team’s 43-28 loss to Ohio Nov. 10.

Enos said junior wide out Cody Wilson and senior tight end David Blackburn are both game-time de-cisions. Wilson has been limited to placeholder for two consecutive weeks following an injury he suf-fered against Akron.

With holes at wide receiver, fresh-men Jason Wilson and Billy Myler will see increased workloads.

“Jason Wilson has been playing all year, though he’s been hurt at times,” Enos said. “We think Billy Myler has a ton of potential and he’s got tal-ent. He has the same type of ability as Cody Wilson, works hard and pro-vides a lot for our team on both of-fense and special teams.”

Garland has been CMU’s top rusher, picking up 378 yards on the ground and averaging 4.6 yards per carry.

It’s do or die for the Central Michi-gan volleyball team as it begins its run for the Mid-American Confer-ence Tournament championship.

The No. 6 Chippewas start the quarterfinals against No. 3 Western Michigan at 1:30 p.m. today at the SPIRE Institute in Geneva, Ohio.

CMU dropped its first two match-es against the Broncos in four games, but showed improvement in the lat-est matchup.

“If you look at the box scores of our first two matches with Western, they outscore us 141-139, but we have significantly more errors,” said head coach Erik Olson. “They’re a low-er-ror team and they don’t miss serves.”

The Chippewas recorded 19 ser-vice errors to WMU’s seven.

The Broncos have struggled lately, narrowly beating Toledo, then losing both matches last weekend against Northern Illinois and Miami (Ohio).

“Because they’re a low-error team, they keep the ball in play and we just need to do a good job of picking up the ball and turning into something positive,” Olson said. “We’re bigger in the middle, our li-bero (sophomore Jenna Coates) digs cleaner than theirs and I think we’re more tactical.”

CMU has senior middle blocker Kaitlyn Schultz, the most consis-tent hitter on the floor. She leads the MAC in hitting percentage at .401.

WMU brings in some strong tal-ent of its own with freshman setter Terin Norris, who is second in the MAC in assists and sophomore li-bero Lena Oliver, who leads the conference in digs.

“Their libero gets more touches than ours, so in theory we should be able to dig transition better than Western, but we haven’t and I give a lot of the credit to their setter be-cause she puts up some pretty good balls.”

The Chippewas aren’t getting caught up in the hype of the rivalry. They’re looking to take the weekend one game at a time, in an attempt to make a run at the MAC Champion-ship.

“We don’t care who is on the oth-er side of the court,” Schultz said. “We’re worrying about who we are and we aren’t worried about the other side.”

CMU has never won the MAC Tournament before.

Schultz has been practicing with an injured groin this week after pulling it during classes, but she will play this weekend.

“We just have to do what we’ve been working on in practice,” Schul-tz said. “We need to play together as a team and get excited and be en-thusiastic about everything.”

The Central Michigan women’s basketball team plays the first two games of a five-game road trip this weekend when it takes on Robert Morris Friday and Pittsburgh Sunday.

The road trip, which includes two games in Alaska as well, gives the Chippewas a chance to get to know each other better.

“We’re excited to play some bas-ketball,” said sophomore guard Niki DiGuilio. “At the same time we’re excited to mingle with each other since the freshmen are travel-ing with us for the first time. We’re looking to have some fun together and become closer.”

CMU lost its season-opening game to Northwestern 69-60 on Nov. 11. Two freshmen, Crystal Bradford and Jessica Green, led the Chippewas in scoring with 14 and 13 points respectively. CMU looks to cut down on turnovers dur-ing the road trip. It had 26 against

Northwestern. “The goal is to get first-year play-

ers experience,” said head coach Sue Guevara. “You have to be ready to play every opponent that comes on the floor with you, regardless if it’s big Division I like Pitt or little Division I like RMU.”

RMU has four upperclassmen in its starting lineup. It has started its season with home wins over Cop-pin State 62-47 and against fellow Mid-American Conference mem-ber Kent State 78-44.

Football is more than just a game for senior Taylor Bradley.

Rather than playing for the bone-chilling hits and high adrenaline plays which many athletes feed off, the Cin-cinnati native said he dedicates his play to his family, the impressionable youth and an old friend.

“I just think about the people who don’t have the opportunity I have to play (NCAA Division I) ball,” Bradley said. “I think about my mom and what she went through, my brother, my dad and my grandma — I want to make them proud and I want them to see me be successful.”

Bradley said goodbye to Central Michigan football after butting heads with the new coaching staff following the 2010 season.

“I just couldn’t see myself doing that (leaving the program) and I felt like I

was letting my coach-es down, my team-mates down and my family down,” he said.

Bradley made a call to head coach Dan Enos and scheduled a meeting to ask for a second chance. He drove up to Mount Pleasant solely for a 15-minute talk and then made his way back to Cincinnati.

“You’ve got to do what you’ve got to do to be who you want to be,” Bradley said. “I had to put my pride to the side and apologized to coach for every-thing I did.”

Enos met with the leadership coun-cil of players, who unanimously voted to bring Bradley back.

“I can’t say enough positive things about Taylor Bradley as a man,” Enos said. “I’ve seen him go from a young man to a man and he’s going to be

very successful in whatever he does because of his attitude, work ethic and the type of person he is.”

Bradley first came to CMU as a wide receiver and played offense in 2007, catching his first collegiate touchdown Oct. 6 against Ball State.

He made the leap to defensive back his sophomore season and back to wide out his junior year. His return for his senior season was at cornerback.

“Whatever to help the team, I was willing to do it,” Bradley said, though he had never played defensive back prior to coming to CMU.

While wide receiver was where he had more experience, Bradley said just playing corner for two years has been enough to make it his preferred posi-tion.

“There’s something about locking down a receiver and not giving him that confidence that he always has — something about making a big play or a big hit that makes me like defense

more,” he said.Bradley rejoined the team as a walk-

on after losing his scholarship and climbed the ranks from sixth-string cornerback to starter by the season opener against South Carolina State.

The senior recorded 11 tackles and an interception this season before suf-fering a torn Achilles tendon against Western Michigan.

“When I went into the locker room, I cried,” Bradley said. “I thought about missing the rest of the season and how much my teammates needed me. I took it hard, but my coaches and teammates were there for me.”

Although his injury sidelined him for the season, Bradley said he doesn’t want to be one of those players that slips away from the team when he’s kept off the field.

“I know most people when they get hurt shy away from the team because

Eric Page is put-ting up num-bers that could be good enough for MAC Offen-sive Player of the Year. He has 85 receptions, 882 yards and nine touchdowns.

Reason to watch: He was effective last year against CMU, making 12 receptions for 127 yards and two touchdowns.

Thomas went off in the 66-63 win against Western Michigan last week. He rushed 30 times for 223 yards and two t o u c h d o w n s . Thomas also had five receptions for 77 yards and another TD.

Reason to watch: A good rushing attack will open up the CMU de-fense for Page to go to work.

Dantin is listed as the No. 1 quaterback on the two-deep, but Terrance Ownes could get the start.

Reason to watch: Both quarterbacks should have an easy time carving up a CMU secondary ranked 10th in the MAC in pass defense, allowing 248 yards per game.

Ryan Radcliff said the game is all about pride.The team can improve on last year’s re-cord with a win tonight.

Reason to watch: He is three passing yards and five pass at-tempts away from ranking 2nd and 3rd in those categories at CMU respectively.

Cody Wilson is a game-time decision and Courtney Wil-liams has been ruled out be-cause of injury. Titus Davis will be relied on more with those two out.

Reason to watch: Davis should be effective against a Toledo defense that has given up 60-plus points in its last two games.

Addae has been the most con-sistent player on the CMU de-fense, leading the team with 96 tackles. The next closest is Avery C u n n i n g h a m with 69.

Reason to watch: He will be re-sponsible for keeping an eye on Eric Page, the talented Toledo WR.

”

It’s a pride game and we want to end it right. The season has had its ups and downs for sure and you’re only as good as your last game.

CHARLOTTE BODAK/STAFF PHOTOGRAPHERFreshman guard Austin McBroom gets ready to shoot the ball during a free throw Tuesday night at McGuirk Arena. CMU lost 77-75 to UNC Charlotte.

By Matt ThompsonAssistant Sports Editor

The Chippewas had every opportunity to beat UNC Char-lotte Wednesday night and let it slip away.

UNC Charlotte put sopho-more guard Trey Zeigler on the foul line six times in the fi-nal 3:31 of regulation. He only made one of those as it went into overtime tied up at 61-61.

“I had a chance to end the game a few times,” Zeigler said. “I have to be better. I have to finish games for us as our lead-er and I take full responsibility for that.”

Zeigler has struggled all sea-son from the free-throw line. He is shooting .458, something that the UNC Charlotte coach noticed going in.

“We knew he had shot in the

50s in terms of free-throw per-centage,” he said. “He happened to make the one to tie it up.”

Zeigler did make 1-of-2 with five seconds left, tying the game. He had missed his previ-ous four foul shots.

CMU head coach and Trey’s father Ernie Zeigler knows how he will handle his son’s poor shooting from the foul line.

“Just keep showing him love,” Ernie said. “He’s beat-ing himself up right now. He knows as one of the leaders of this team and a big-time player, he’s got to make those plays. At the same time, it’s a team game. He’s one of the guys on the team that has to make plays.”

Ernie said he just has to keep doing what the coaches are asking from him, putting in the extra work before or after practice. Zeigler said he noticed

what may be throwing off his shots.

“His release point, that’s the issue for him,” he said. “His re-lease point is all over the place when he has to focus. That’s going to come from repetition, repetition, repetition.”

CMU’s free-throw shooting problems don’t start and end with Trey, though. The team as a whole is shooting .554 and starters Andre Coimbra and Ol-ivier Mbaigoto both have only made half their attempts.

Trey is taking the majority of the shots from the line and said he knows he needs to improve.

“He’s going to be in that po-sition again and he’ll have a chance to put this one behind him and come out successful,” Ernie said.

“We’ve got to remain bal-anced on offense and protect the quarterback,” Enos said. “We’re going to need to run the ball and chew up some clock.”

Juniors Darryll Stinson, Steve Winston and Nate Wil-liams will also be game-time decisions on the defensive line.

“We just need to stay in our gaps and we need to tackle better, which has been an is-sue for us all year,” said line-backer Mike Petrucci.

Petrucci recorded nine tackles and a sack in his first

game last week after being sidelined for four weeks be-cause of injury.

The Rockets have three run-ning backs who rushed more than CMU’s top back, includ-ing Adonis Thomas who ranks 10th in the MAC (691 yards).

Toledo’s offense is balanced with a dual-quarterback sys-tem. Junior Austin Dantin has thrown for 1,398 and 15 touchdowns, while Terrance Owens has thrown for 1,270 and nine touchdowns.

“They’re very good and they rushed for over 400 yards against Western last week,” Enos said. “They’re very talented and their quar-terback is good, their run-ning backs are good and they have several wide outs that can hurt you. You can’t really

say you’ll stop one part.”The Chippewas and Rock-

ets have split their match-ups all-time, holding an 18-18-3 record. They split the past two meetings, each winning on their home turf.

CMU has eight seniors on its depth chart appearing in their last collegiate game at Kelly/Shorts Stadium. All 14 seniors on roster will be rec-ognized prior to kickoff.

“We’re going to try to show our best here at the end be-cause it’s all we’ve got left,” Radcliff said. “This is our bowl game, this is our MAC Cham-pionship. We’re going to try to win it for the seniors, win it for the school and win it for pride.”

PRIDE |CONTINUED FROM 1B

“Robert Morris is going to be a good test for us,” Guevara said. “Spanou is a lot like Hackney from Northwestern in that she’s 6’2” and she can shoot the three. The kids on the perimeter are junior college transfers. They’re experienced and can shoot the three as well.”

PITTSBURGHThe Chippewas make a short

trip east to Pittsburgh where they face the Panthers after playing the Colonials.

Pittsburgh lost its opener to Hampton 60-37 before defeat-ing St. Francis 78-50.

The Panthers beat CMU 94-78 last season in Mount Pleas-ant, and will return with redshirt sophomore guard Ashlee An-derson, who scored double-dig-it points against the Chippewas.

She leads the Panthers in scoring with 14.5 PPG. Fresh-man guard Brianna Kiesel is the only other player reaching dou-ble figures with 12.5 PPG. Pitts-burgh has no seniors or juniors on its roster.

“Pittsburgh is a young team,” Guevara said. “I know there is a lot of teaching going on for both sides. We might be two of the youngest teams in the country.”

ROAD |CONTINUED FROM 1B

they think it’s all about them, but it’s not about me — it’s about the team,” he said.

Jahleel Addae and other teammates helped him with his transition to defense and now Bradley works with the young corners on the team, helping them better under-stand their roles.

SUPPORT SYSTEMGrowing up, Bradley was

backed by a supportive family, though he encountered sev-eral bumps along the way.

At 13, Bradley’s mother Kim Bradley was diagnosed with cancer. Her battle with the dis-ease inspired him to continue to follow his dreams.

“My mom is my best friend and my hero,” Bradley said. “To see her go through what she did — she told me not to give up my dreams and to keep doing what I was doing if she was gone.”

Bradley said his dad was dedicated to him and took work off to attend his high

school games. He considered his brother his “biggest fan.”

“I’ve had a great support system between my fam-ily and high school coach,” Bradley said. “He taught me that life’s about more than just football and I’m grateful to have that.”

Bradley’s support team took another hit in 2007 when he received a call that his close friend Ranear Kirksey passed away. Bradley and Kirksey al-ways envisioned playing foot-ball at the collegiate level until Kirksey left the sport in 2004.

“I grew up with him and we looked out for each other,” Bradley said. “Sophomore year he just started hanging with the wrong people and I got the call my freshman year of college saying he had been murdered.”

Bradley was devastated by the loss of someone he was so close to back home, but he said it allowed him to see the road he could have traveled if it wasn’t for football.

“I try to do this for him be-cause it’s something he always wanted to do,” he said. “Play-ing college ball was his dream and I just wanted to live it for

him. I know he’s looking down, proud of me.”

FUTUREWhether football continues

throughout his life or he takes a different path, Bradley said he wants to continue to be a role model.

The defensive back is studying criminal justice at CMU, hoping to follow in his high school coach’s steps as a police sergeant and athletics coach.

“Coaches have the position where kids feel comfortable coming to talk to them about things, not just football,” Bradley said. “That’s one of the reasons I do want to come back and coach.”

Enos agreed and said he is in the field for a similar reason.

“People think we coach to win and that’s part of it, but I coach to watch a guy like Tay-lor Bradley go through what he did to become what he is now,” he said. “Taylor Bradley is a story I’ll never forget and he’ll be successful because of the adversity he faced and how he came out on top.”

INSPIRED |CONTINUED FROM 1B

By Seth NewmanStaff Reporter

Central Michigan will be rep-resented at the NCAA Nationals for the first time since 2005.

Sophomore Tecumseh Ad-ams has an opportunity to fin-ish one of the best seasons by a Chippewa in recent memory Monday in Terre Haute, Ind.

“I was smiling even before I crossed the finish line,” Adams said about Regionals last week. “It was a pretty exciting mo-ment for me. I knew I was one of the top guys in the region this year. I just had to execute and I think I did pretty well.”

Adams gives credit to direc-tor of cross-country and track Willie Randolph and assistant coach Matt Kaczor for helping him during the season.

“We’ve been working hard all year, doing workouts, doing mileage and stuff,” Adams said. “Kaczor told me if I just stay calm and collected I’ll be there at the end.”

Adams is the first runner under Randolph to qualify for Nationals.

Randolph is excited for Ad-ams to have a chance for re-wards based on his hard work and acknowledged that it’s ex-citing to have a runner qualify for Nationals under him.

“It feels pretty good, espe-cially when the athlete is ex-cited to be going to Nationals also,” Randolph said. “He has a chance for all the hard work he put in to be rewarded.”

Emotions run high for many athletes on the championship stage, and Randolph is trying to predict how Adams will feel heading into the race.

“He will be outside his com-fort zone at Nationals,” Ran-dolph said. “I think he will feel a mix of aggression and excite-ment, which he should. I think he is just going to go in there and do it.”

Adams is receiving a lot of support in his quest to Nation-als. Not only are his coaches

and teammates supporting him, but CMU’s alumni are as well.

“It’s pretty exciting,” Adams said. “I know a lot of the alum-ni are supporting me and sup-porting this team. It’s just an exciting feeling to get someone there.”

Adams’ family will also be cheering him on.

“My brother was at the last meet and he was pretty ex-cited,” Adams said. “I saw him running around. I called my mom right after, but she had already known. She is coming to Nationals so I’m pretty ex-cited about that.”

Adams isn’t satisfied with making it, though. He still has goals he wants to achieve.

“I want to hang with the top 40 at the beginning,” he said. “All this hard work is paying off. I’m excited about the next few years. Hopefully I’ll be-come All-American this year.”
