Monthly ‘Chat with the Chancellor’ series will commence Thursday at 11 a.m. at the Innovation Café.
Joshua ChappellSenior Staff Writer
On Thursday, Innovation Café on Centennial Campus will have a very important visitor – Chancel-lor Randy Woodson.
Chancellor Woodson is starting a new program, called ‘Chat with the Chancellor,’ that he hopes will better connect him to the student body.
“The Chat with the Chancellor is based on the idea of having an informal conversation with stu-dents,” Woodson said.
Connecting with students is one of the most important duties of a university chancellor, according to Woodson.
“I’m essentially the CEO of a large corporation, so I have re-sponsibility for everything here,” Woodson said. “Students, from a corporation standpoint, are our
most important customer. Every-thing we do is for students, to build up the educational environment that they aspire to be a part of,” Woodson said. “Like any CEO, you want to have opportunities to interact with your customers.”
While this event is occurring on Centennial Campus, future ‘Chat with the Chancellor’ events will be held at locations such as Nelson Hall and Park Shops, according to the Chancellor’s

Tuition increase proposal submitted to chancellorProposed increase in University tuition not expected to impact future enrollment.
Brooke Wallig & Sruthi MohanStaff Writer & Correspondent
The Tuition Review Committee Ad-visory, a group of N.C. State students and administrators who meet yearly to discuss the upcoming academic year’s tuition, officially sent their proposal to Chancellor Randy Woodson for further examination.
According to Chandler Thompson, student body president and voting member on the Tuition Review Com-mittee Advisory, this year’s proposal is for an increase of $330 for in-state students and $600 for out-of-state students.
According to Patrick Devore, a senior in meteorology and chair of the Student Senate Tuition and Fees Committee, his committee—who first made a recommendation to TRAC—intended their suggestion to be an ex-planation of how students would best like the tu-ition increases to be handled if they are abso-lutely necessary.
“Resolution 51 was the resolu-tion the Student Senate passed per ta in ing to tuition. This bill states that the students don’t want to see a tuition increase—they never do,” Devore said. “It goes on to state that should the tuition committee see the need for tuition increases, it should make them as small as possible and help offset [the increases] as much as possible by putting money from the increase back into financial aid.”
While Resolution 51 did not offer a concrete solution like that of TRAC’s recommendation, Devore hopes it will serve as a guide for the University’s future.
“This year’s bill is more of a guid-ing recommendation of what students want to happen and what they want to see, and what input we can provide on things going forward—not just this year, but also in years down the road,” Devore said.
According to Devore, TRAC made their decision Monday, and their rec-ommendation now awaits Woodson, who will decide if the recommen-
dation is appropriate. He will make changes if he deems them necessary. Woodson’s recommendation will then be forwarded to the University’s Board of Trustees. The board will study the recommendation, and will then send their own recommendation to the UNC System’s Board of Governors. Once the BOG has made a decision regarding the tuition increase, their recommendation will be sent to the General Assembly for a final decision.
“Pending any input from outside sources—General Assembly, Board of Governors, etc.—that $330 is the rec-ommendation from this committee, and will move forward at $330 pend-ing any changes by the Chancellor,” Devore said.
However, Devore said it’s important to note that at any moment during this process, the General Assembly has the power to make and enforce its own changes—as was seen two years ago when this process was interrupted by the General Assembly’s mandated $750 increase across the UNC System.
“Whatever comes out of this com-mittee is pretty much what hap-pens, although there may be sub-tle changes in the distribution of the money,” De-vore said. “The $330 recommen-dation—along with the $600 for out-of-state students—was made with it go-ing to four differ-ent areas: finan-
cial aid, quality and accessibility, the Graduate Student Support Plan and Faculty Promotional Funds. At times those four percentages have changed slightly. Those are the only tweaks that really happen, but otherwise that amount stays prettyconstant.”
According to Devore, the current distribution agreement is for 35 per-cent of the tuition increase to go to-wards financial aid and support for students, 52 percent towards increas-ing quality and accessibility of services offered at the University, 8.7% (about $1,000,000) towards the Graduate Student Support Plan, and 4.3% (a $500,000 preset amount) saved for faculty promotional funds.
Although it is a small percentage of the increase, Devore said the mon-ey meant for faculty pay increases, which he said was actually put back

Candlelight service held in the Brickyard brings attention to suicide prevention.
Elise HeglarDeputy News Editor
On Wednesday night, the National Alliance on Mental Illness at N.C. State held a candlelight service to honor those who have been lost to suicide in the United States.
The service began with a speech given by Deidre Hughey, a motiva-tional speaker. Hughey spoke about her personal experience with suicide and how the help of others helped her decide not to end her life.
“I didn’t feel like there would ever be any hope for me,” Hughey said.
Hughey spoke about the signs she exhibited while she was slipping into a deep depression. Neither her friends or family noticed them.
“When I came up with the perfect solution [to end my life], I started writing poems. I was entering them in contests, these very dark poems, and nobody said anything,” Hughey said.
Looking for signs in friends and family was extensively discussed at the event. Some of the warning signs to look for, according to Angel Johnson, a counselor at the University counsel-
ing center, are mood, behavior, inter-personal and physical changes.
“A lot of students come to us and say ‘if someone had asked me if I was doing okay, I would have told them the answer’,” Johnson said.
Hughey said that it is important to look for signs, because even the small-est signs can be an indication of seri-ous emotional trouble.
“If someone’s giving you a sign… there’s a reason,” Hughey said.
There were tables set up at the event with information about the Counsel-ling Center, things to look for in people who are exhibiting signs of depression and general infor-mation about the National Alliance on Mental Illness at N.C. State.
About 30 students attended the event with people coming and going throughout. After Hughey and John-son spoke to the crowd, Tim Riggins, a suicide prevention program coordi-nator, spoke about why being aware of suicide is so important to college students.
“35,000 people in the United States die by suicide every year. On average, a person commits suicide every 15
minutes. Those are huge numbers and a lot of lives have been lost,” Riggins said.
Officer Timothy Hammonds of Campus Police also spoke at the event. According to Hammonds, at least one member of every Campus Police team has been trained in cri-sis intervention and are able to help students with issues like suicide.
After all the speakers had fin-ished addressing the crowd, can-dles were passed around to ev-eryone who was in attendance. Once they were lit, a moment of silence was ob-served in honor of all the lives
lost to suicide.“We’re remembering the lives
we lost to suicide tonight,” Rig-gins said.
Riggins said that one of the main reasons for hosting the event and providing the information was so that students could act as pro-tectors for people who might be considering suicide or harming themselves in another way

A break from the books
Derek DiPietro, a senior in agriculture business management, sits outside D.H. Hill library to take a break from studying. Much like a majority of N.C. State students, DiPietro is studying for a test at the library. “Recently I’ve come to the library everyday” says DiPietro, “I’ve come more this semester than I have for all my time at State.”
However, the library is not just for studying. Many students come to hang out, get coffee, play videogames, and take advantage of the technology that D.H. Hill has to offer.

Office.Joseph Beasley, a senior in
political science, said he thinks this program has the potential to achieve its goal.
“These programs will achieve their goal if they can involve and include a diverse group of students from all majors, fields of study, and ages,” Bea-sley said.
Beas-l e y a l s o s a id t h at he thinks student in-teraction is essential for the Chan-cellor to be able to suc-cessfully ca rr y out the duties of his job.
“The Chancel-lor makes a l o t o f important decisions that affect students everyday,” Beasley said. “By being better con-nected with the student body, he can better serve students by addressing issues that are im-portant to them.”
Benton Riordan, a sopho-more in chemical engineering, said he is planning to attend the
event and hopes to learn more about the Chancellor’s job.
“I hope to gain an under-standing of what the Chancel-lor is doing, to ensure the Uni-versity continues to provide a quality educational experience to its students in the face of budget cuts,” Riordan said.
Riordan also went on to say that he hopes to attend more events like this in the future.
“I would like to think that if I noticed a problem or area need-ing improvement, I could easily notify the appropriate person,”
Riordan said. “The ‘Chat w i t h t h e Chancellor’ series shows Dr. Wood-son’s com-mitment to improving our campus and student body.”
Chandler Thompson, the student body presi-dent and a senior in eco-nomics, said she thinks the Chancellor is
implementing these programs in order to connect more with the large student body.
“[Dr. Woodson] expressed to me a hope that office hours around campus would give more students the opportunity to meet him,” Thompson said.
Thompson said that while
these programs are a great start, she hopes the Chan-cellor will continue to reach out to the student body in new ways.
“I’m hoping the next places he will do open of-fice hours to get student feedback will be at Hill of Beans or [while] riding the Wolfline for an hour. There is always room for improve-ment,” Thompson said. “I’m still trying to convince [Dr. Woodson] that a Twitter ac-count is a good idea.”
The main thing he wants students to know about these events, Woodson said, is that they are intended to be informal and informa-tional.
“I have plenty of oppor-tunities for formal presen-tations,” Woodson said. “I want this to be more relaxed, and I want the students to feel empowered to come and share their thoughts about the University.”
Woodson said he hopes to hear both positive and nega-tive things from students.
“I want to hear what stu-dents are happy with, what they love, and things that they feel could be made bet-ter,” Woodson said.
Thompson said she is hopeful that students will gain a lot from the events.
“I hope that opportunities like these will help students understand that their voice does matter,” Thompson said.

“We are training people to act as gatekeepers for these types of situations,” Riggins said.
Johnson said that paying close attention to little signs is a good way to ensure that your friends and family stay safe.
“90 percent of people who are thinking about suicide will tell someone about it,” Johnson said.
Tierra Pressley, a senior in bi-ology who attended the event, said it is important to raise awareness about suicide and suicide prevention, because many students do not consider
it a major issue.“A lot of students take things
for granted, and think if they’re
doing great that everyone else is doing great too, but that’s not the reality,” Pressley said.

Performances highlight banned booksBanned book performances seek to shine light on First Amendment rights.
Joshua ChappellSenior Staff Writer
On Wednesday at Thompson Hall, students had the oppor-tunity to listen to scenes from a collection of banned books as part of the NCSU Libraries celebration of Banned Books Week.
During “Red, White, and Banned,” a number of students from the Alpha Psi Omega Na-tional Theatre Honor Society performed scenes from sev-eral books that are considered banned, including The Ad-ventures of Huckleberry Finn, Harry Potter, The Outsiders, and more.
According to Leanna Hall, a sophomore in microbiol-ogy, a banned book is a book “deemed unfit for a reading community for reasons that can be anything from sexual content to witchcraft or offen-sive language.”
Marian Fragola, director of program planning and out-reach for NCSU Libraries, said the goal of this event is to empower the student body with knowledge.
“Words and books are pow-erful, and because of that pow-er, people throughout history have tried to stop other people
from reading or having access to works they find objection-able,” Fragola said. “Today’s students should not take their freedom to read what they choose for granted, because challenges are made to books every year.”
Jillian Varner, a senior in eco-nomics, is president of the Al-pha Psi Omega fraternity. She said that her group chose to get involved because the topic resonated with them.
“The idea of censorship strikes a particularly personal chord with us,” Varner said. “As actors and artists, what we constantly strive for is to ex-press our unique perspectives in a way that lets us connect with other people.”
Diana Quetti, a sophomore in communications, performed a monologue from the book The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. Her scene occurred at the end of the book when the character Po-
nyboy reflects on the violence between young teenage boys.
“The Outsiders was appeal-ing to me, due to an impact-ful truth behind the writing,” Quetti said. “I believe part of the reason why this book was challenged was due to the fact that people didn’t want to hear the truth about violence involving such young people.”
Quetti said that her piece is a perfect example of the im-portance of spreading banned
books.“Most literature is challenged
if it speaks of a truth that some feel observers are not ready for,” Quetti said. “The irony of this concept is that many argue that the truth represented in these works are the most impactful of any writing.”
Quetti also said that she hopes the student body can be inspired by the event.
“Showcasing examples of the impact of banned books may inspire students to push the en-velope in their own developing writing, or expand an interest level in other literature,” Quetti said.
Lizzy Ozamiz, a senior in textile engineering, performed a song from the musical adap-tation of the banned book Wicked.
“I think these performances may surprise some students a n d m a y b e even encourage them to go read some of these books,” Ozamiz said.
She said that this event has hopefully shone some light on this important area of society.
“I hope students will gain an appreciation for the freedom we have to read what we want to read,” Ozamiz said. “There are still some communities
that don’t allow people to read certain books, and I think we need to be proud that we have that right.”
Hall said that the freedom that the event represents is es-pecially appealing.
“To me as an actress, I am thankful for the literature I have been exposed to, be-cause it helps to broaden the imagination and expand one’s knowledge of the physical and fictional worlds surrounding them,” Ozamiz said.
Fragola said that some of her most cherished books have been the targets of bans.
“Some of the books most im-portant to me when I was grow-ing up, and books that I love as
an adult, have been among the most fre-quent targets of challeng-es,” Fragola said. “I feel lucky that I have had the opportunity to read these books and de-cide for my-
self what I think about them.”Varner said that the fact that
these banned books can be cel-ebrated is what differentiates our society from others.
“By banning books and other forms of art, we’re silencing the voices that give our society its humanity,”Varner said.
Jordan Moore/TechnicianSitting in Thompson theatre, Sory Bowers, a member of “friends of the library,” listens to a dramatic reading of Judy Blume’s “Deenie,” Wednesday. The reading was one of five that were done as part of Banned Books Week, a movement to nationally celebrate the freedom for citizens to read freely.

into financial aid last year, is not wholly under University control.
“The only thing the promo-tional funds are used for are to give promotional increases to those people who have to have them by state law, through state-mandated requirements. It’s not for merit bases. It’s con-trolled by the University to a degree, but they are not able to give as many raises as they want. They’re not able to say, ‘Oh, you got 85 percent positive responses in your ClassEval, here’s x amount of dollars,’” Devore said. “It’s more like
saying, ‘You’ve been here for x amount of years, you have to have this much of an increase.’”
But despite these proposed increases, Devore said past increases have not affected Univer-s i t y en-rollment, and said he do e s not expect th is one will deter future students from coming to N.C. State.
“It still hasn’t affected enroll-ment much. We’re still one of the cheapest schools in the na-tion in terms of bang for your
buck. We’re still one of the cheapest out-of-state schools in the nation. We had a re-cord number of applications last year, even though we had
an increase, so we’re still growing as a university.”
At the same time, Devore said the Uni-versity is still in the very early stages of this process.
“There’s a lot of time left for these decisions,” Devore said. “People are talking now about things that won’t be decided upon until April or May of next year.”

{ }Our view
Think back to high school, for some of us it was only a year ago,
to others it’s a little longer. Re-member when teachers and counselors constantly encour-aged volunteer work. For many of us, it was a duty performed begrudgingly. While there’s no one who says doing commu-nity service in college is a must, the benefits of serving others and your community are well worth the effort that goes into it.
The Cooperative for Assis-tance and Relief Everywhere (CARE) has been recruiting students to join their organiza-tions and help to make a dif-ference in both the Triangle and the world. While CARE provides opportunities for stu-dents to give back to the com-munity, there are many orga-
nizations on campus whose sole purpose is to create service opportunities for students. They’re out there, and as stu-dents, we have to take advan-tage of them.
The common misconception about volunteers is that they are simply problem-solvers in the community, fixing home-lessness, hunger or health is-sues. However, they should be viewed as people serving those who are experiencing these is-sues. Volunteers are not there to help someone lower than themselves, but rather serve someone on the same level as themselves. This type of ser-vice is best demonstrated by events like Service N.C. State.
These events and activities al-low students to go out into the community and serve those in need. The way to get involved is easy. There are numerous wor-thy causes offering opportuni-ties for students. For instance, CARE is devoted to issues such as AIDS, hunger and general poverty. If you have an inter-est, there’s a place for service. However, you must act on it.
N.C. State makes it so easy; the Center for Student Leader-ship, Ethics and Public Service provides a countless num-ber of organizations devoted to service around N.C. State, and even more opportunities for one-timers. With such op-portunities, you don’t need to
have a long-term commitment to service; you can merely go once. Regardless, you will still be helping.
When such service was re-quired in high school, many students found those activities as useless, or not worth their time, but the reality is this time is well spent.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it
In my memory, 1997 was a pretty fantastic year. Sci-entists in Scotland had
successfully managed to clone a full-grown sheep. Bill Clin-
ton had been inaugurated into his second term. IBM’s‚ predecessor to Watson, Deep Blue , ma n-aged to beat the greatest chess player of all time, Gary
Kasparov, at his own game. As we all know, this was the event that humbled the Rus-sians enough to sign a peace treaty with the Chechens the same year.
But these aren’t the things I remember from 1997. I was seven years old and couldn’t care less about any of those things. I was too busy play-ing video games, hanging out with the neighborhood kids or watching television. What makes 1997 such a great year in my memory is it was the first year I was intro-duc e d to the greatest sci-f i epic of all time, George Lu-cas’s Star W a r s : A New Hope.
In cele-bration of the 20th anniversary and as a way to garner more at-tention for the soon-to-come prequel trilogy, LucasArts re-released the original Star Wars trilogy in theaters across the nation. This event was no doubt a big deal to die-hard fans from the beginning of the series, and to my genera-tion that missed out on it the first time around.
As it turns out, these re-re-leases were the first of George Lucas’s special editions of the films. Many fans were unhappy that Lucas took such liberties as to replace the original puppets of most of the aliens including Jaba the Hutt, the Sarlacc, the Banthas and the Rancor with CGI.
Lucas also changed many of the scene wipes, dialogue and sounds. He even altered the fa-mous scene between Han and Greedo, making it clear that Han shot first.
Later with the 2004 DVD re-lease, more drastic alterations were made like replacing Sebas-tian Shaw with Hayden Chris-tenson as Anakin Skywalker. As a child watching the movies I didn’t notice any of this. But after watching the originals and the re-mastered versions, I think of the films as works of art and agree the alterations should not have been made.
Lucas claims he made these alterations because he wanted it to be this way originally, but was limited by the technology of the era. However, it is what he managed to do with the lim-ited technology that made the films true works of art.
The special effects demon-strated in the original Star Wars far outshone any of its contem-poraries. Potatoes and tennis shoes were brilliantly disguised as asteroids and spaceships, cars were made to look like they were hovering, and space battles of epic proportions with lasers and explosions came to life in a way that wouldn’t be
matched un-til years later.
However, Luc a s wa s not happy with the real-ities of these effects. The tennis shoes were still ten-nis shoes, the hovering cars had a discol-
oration underneath them, and the space ships had a gray box around them as they flew through space.
But there is no need to fix these things. Let them stand as monuments of success of doing great things within your limitations. The original mov-ies in their unaltered forms are fantastic works of art by means of their own merit.
When a better type of paint was discovered, DaVinci didn’t go back and repaint his mas-terpieces—he left them alone because he knew they were al-ready as perfect as they needed to be. Lucas needs to remem-ber what made these films great instead of finding new ways to screw with art. George, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Exercise your right, to work-outWorking out is
believed to be benef icia l for
the body and the mind, as well as for the soul. How much do we really care to
go and work out, though?
Carmichael Gy m, w it h its excellent
facilities and numerous exercise options, is truly phenomenal. We should definitely take advantage of it
All undergraduate stu-dents must take two physi-cal education courses while studying for their degrees. This is a great rule, as it helps students to lead a healthy and active lifestyle.
Since many of us can’t be easily motivated to go and work out, such classes pro-vide a good opportunity to learn a new sport or art form while having fun. N.C. State also encourages students with the “Take 8 at State” program, in which students take eight gym classes over their four years. This is a great way to keep in shape and guard against the fresh-man 15 and sophomore 20.
Working out is not just about losing weight. It’s also about keeping fit and stay-ing healthy. To accomplish this you must change your
unhealthy lifestyle, and exer-cise is the ideal way to help you do so.
Carmichael Gym has some-thing to offer for everyone. So if you’re giving excuses like, “I don’t play sports,” then you don’t have to play sports. There’s always something else for you to do.
Playing a sport is definitely a great way to burn the calories. But if you really like dancing or working out in a group, there are a lot of ways to do that as well. For ex a m-ple, take the aerobics and dance classes provided by the Fitness Center.
If you are the outdoorsy type, they have fun activities for you as well. You can learn how to scuba dive, rock climb, or par-ticipate in other activities pro-vided by Campus Recreation.
Don’t really fancy a formal workout class? The gym has a great running track and easy-to-use cardio and weight equipment where you can just exercise at your own pace with-out taking a class.
Complaining you have way too much coursework to actu-ally go and take a gym class is simply not an option. Exer-
cising is a great way to de-stress yourself during your busy day. It will definitely help you calm down and relax.
The employees at Car-michael claim, “Research suggests regular exercise can decrease stress, im-prove self-concept, provide an outlet for socializing and decrease symptoms of de-pression.
More recently, exercise has been shown to not only l e a d t o six-pack abs, but to help you improve
your grades.” That’s right, regular exercise can also improve brain function.
The importance of ex-ercise cannot be stressed enough. It helps keep away a lot of diseases and other unwanted problems.
If you’ve only been plan-ning to start your workout up till now, then there’s no better time to start than to-day. It might just help you relax from the burden of your course load, or merely help you stay in shape.

Professor Petrovich on busting popularly accepted, but false studying beliefs.
Nishanth CoontoorStaff Writer
With midterms fast ap-proaching, students on cam-pus are readying to face those dreaded subjects that never made sense during class. The hours spent cramming in the library are only going up, and students are putting in more hours than they have up till now. However, such study habits may not necessarily spell success. There is a large gap between the right way to study, and what one may think is the right way. Lori Ma-rie Petrovich, senior lecturer in chemistry and coordinator of the general chemistry laborato-ries at NCSU, advises students on studying, and busts some myths in the process.
Myth 1: The class notes will be available to study later, so paying attention in class means listening intently to the teacher.
Reality: It’s advised to take notes in class. Merely listen-ing in class is not as effective as writing down keywords and points during the lecture. You are more likely to remember them during review. Use dif-ferent colored pens: blue for in class points, black for notes from lecture slides and teach-er’s notes and red for additional information from reference books.
Myth 2: If you don’t under-stand a concept, leave it. Go ahead with the next topic.
Reality: Studying a bit each day and fully understanding all
homework questions is impor-tant. If you don’t follow a con-cept, pursue it. Material tends to pile up at a later stage, and you may not be able to recall what that one piece was that you did not follow up with. Ideas are often interconnected in the course.
Myth 3: Group study is the quickest way to learn.
Reality: Group study is a very efficient way to gather informa-tion as long as you can generate the same independently. While studying in a group, you may think you understood a deriva-tion, or a problem technique. But, during a test, you find yourself unable to arrive at the solution. This is the reason why some students get a 90 on their homework and yet get low marks on the test.
Myth 4: If there are four text-books listed for a course, read them all.
Reality: We live in an in-formation age, and there is an overwhelming amount of material available. Students should use their instructors and their notes as a guide. The class syllabus will help keep you within the framework of what you are expected to know. Textbooks must strictly be a supplement to these notes. You can go ahead and explore more detailed information in these, but the moment you enter an unfamiliar territory, you should know to stop. To-day, students participate in many extra-curricular activi-ties. Some even have part-time jobs. They look for efficiency. Studying all hours, and being a bookworm does not help. Study smarter, not more.
Myth 5: Pick a subject and pursue it until you are done
studying. Then, move on to the next subject and repeat the process.
Reality: One must always rotate subjects while studying. Study a subject for 45 minutes while paying full attention and within your cone of silence. Then take a 15 minute break to refresh before resuming your studies. If you are taking both science and humanities, switch between the two so that you don’t get bored. Study chapters in small parts.
Myth 6: If you haven’t per-formed well on the first test, it means you need to slog. Work hard, and study all the topics.
Reality: Everyone takes up the first test blindfolded. It’s what you do after this that de-cides your success on the next. After the first test, sit down and dissect the question paper. Try to analyze where the questions are coming from. They may be coming from the lecture notes, footnotes in the text, or exer-cise questions after a chapter. When you gain this predictive power, you can target your study for the next test.
Myth 7: You learn better if you study late into the night, and whenever you study, stick to your study table.
Reality: Students have to identify the kind of study environment that works for them. A study environment is the time of the day and the place that suits them. Some students study best during the day and some into the night, while others learn better early in the morning. Identify what works for you. Also, change your study environment if you tend to get bored of a particular place.

Local breweries embrace the season of Oktoberfest and darker malts as opposed to pumpkin flavor.
Mark HerringFeatures Editor
Raleigh microbreweries are crafting their seasonal beers for the upcoming fall, but unlike popular national trends, they are not focusing on pumpkin. Rather, they find inspiration in darker beers and the most regarded holiday of every brewer—Oktoberfest.
Mark Doble of Aviator Brewing Company in Fuquay-Varina now sells his interpretation of the quintessential German Ok-toberfest beer style, Märzen. However, instead of using the lager yeast traditionally used by German breweries, Doble said he uses ale yeast, a different strand of the fungi that requires a different technique for fermenting.
“I consider the Oktoberfest at Aviator to be more in the style of a German Altbier, or old beer,” Doble said. “Despite the tech-nicalities, it’s got a nice copper color to it and a really nice taste. We really wanted to bring in something to showcase the malt without going overboard.”
Oktoberfest, a two-week long festival from the southern German state of Bavaria, has brought Märzen to international attention. This beer—historically brewed in March, hence the name—is now available in many local breweries, including Aviator, Carolina Brewing Company and LoneRider Brewing Company.
According Kevin Boyette, cellar master and production manager from LoneRider Brewing Company, their spin on Oktoberfest goes German 100 percent.
“All the ingredients—the malt, the yeast, the hops—are Ger-man,” Boyette said.
The LoneRider Oktoberfest pays close attention to the fine de-tails. In order to achieve a similar flavor to German breweries, brewers at LoneRider make sure their water pH is the same as that of German water, according to Boyette.
“We use a German lager yeast, which makes this beer, like other lagers and pilsners, more crisp,” Boyette said. “We get that because lager yeast ferment the beer at a lower temperature.”
Typical malts that many breweries will use include Munich, Vienna and
According to the German Purity Law of 1516, beer can only consist of four things: malt, hops, water and yeast. The law, which still exists today, does not allow brewers to deviate and experi-
ment with adjunts. However, brewers in North Carolina are taking full ad-vantage to the opportunities to blend, infuse and create new flavors.
Roth Brewing Company, a Raleigh brewery started by alumni brothers Ryan and Eric Roth, embraces the advent of fall with bold and heavy flavors.
James Weber, the brewer, said fall is his favorite season for beer.
“It’s just right. The flavors and feel-ing of fall beers are a nice refresh-ment from all the summer beers that are not as bold in f lavor,” Weber said.
Roth ’s fa l l beer is the Forgotten Hallow, a porter with cin-namon.
“We add-ed cinnamon to the boil when brewing, just so it would release all its oil and flavor in the beer,” Weber said. “You definitely can tell the taste is there, but the aroma is present too, and you can get a great sense of it when you smell the head of the beer.”
The Forgotten Hallow is the beer the Roth brothers and brewing friends first made, and for Weber, it’s stuck around for a reason.
“It’s funny—we started to brew in the middle of a hurricane years ago,” Weber said. “We were all outside standing around a big kettle, hoping it would turn out well. We’ve refined the recipe ever since.”
As Märzens close off summer, darker malts start becoming more popular, according to William Winslow, fermentation specialist at American Brewmaster homebrew store.
“People tend to think dark beer is for cold weather,” Winslow said. “I drink dark beer all the time, throughout the year, but the flavors and the dark malts are popular this time of year.”
Although pumpkin is a popular choice for fall beer enthusiasts, Weber said its popularity has made him run away from trying it out.
“We decided to go a different way,” Weber said. “Everyone is do-ing pumpkin, so we thought we would pioneer a different flavor.”
Pumpkin is popular, with Anheuser-Busch, Blue Moon, and Sam Adams taking the style to the national level. However, Raleigh microbrewers look at fall with a different perspective.
“Although pumpkin is fun, there are a lot of other flavors and combinations to work with,” Weber said. “But instead of flood-ing the market with the same stuff, we decided to establish our own niche.”
Fall beers go past pumpkin spice
Free Expression tunnel fosters student hip-hop cultureStudents promote hip-hop through a gathering every Monday night to freestyle rap and share rhymes.
Frances EllisStaff Writer
Late on a Monday night, a circle of students can be found near the Free Expression Tun-nel. The small crowd, in-trigued by the rapping coming from within the circle, is not a random campus gathering as most passersby might assume. Instead, the regular Monday night event and crowd is a “cy-
pher” – the hip-hop term for a circle of rappers that come together to “spit rhymes.”
The idea was conceived by Raleigh native Mike Green. Also known as “Live,” Green is a crew member of the group, God Cypher Divine.
“We had an album that hadn’t [been released] yet and we wanted to take photos and create essentially a promo video for the album,” Green said. “We thought it would be [a good idea to meet] near the Free Expression Tunnel with all these people we have done shows with and rhyme in front of it. Graffiti is a part of hip-
hop culture and that’s what initially drew us to the tunnel.”
The unofficial name of the Monday night cypher at the Free Expression tunnel is “Monday Night Raw,” which has been up and running since February 2010. The cy-pher typically starts around 11 p.m. and can last until the early hours of Tuesday morning. Green described the event as an epitome of the underground Raleigh hip-hop scene.
Freddy Staton, a junior in anthropology, is known as “Freddy Skywalker” at the cy-pher. He attended the very first cypher and has been coming
ever since. “Someone walked up to
me and said that a cypher was going on outside, so I went to check it out,” Staton said. “There were only a few people out there at that point, but we spread the word and eventually [reached] over 100 people just chilling out here in the middle of the night.”
Farouk “SaySo” Bseiso, a se-nior in communications, was another familiar face at the Monday night cyphers.
“I heard about this from a girl in the coffee shop,” Bseiso said. “She noticed I was writing rhymes and told me there was a
rap cypher by the Free Expres-sion Tunnel on Monday nights. One night, I decided to show up and go in. I’ve been rapping since middle school, and I had a lot of material that I wanted to share. I started coming every week because I enjoyed it.”
Owing to the cypher, the Free Expression Tunnel has been a bonding agent for stu-dents and individuals from dif-ferent walks of life. Bseiso hap-pened to be one of them when he first visited the cypher in the fall of 2010.
“You meet a lot of differ-ent people here, and they all have something unique to rap
about. It’s interesting to come out here and see the different kind of flows and wordplays. Some people are freestyling while others have planned their rhymes ahead of time. I’m a huge fan of hip-hop and it’s a nice ambiance. I’ve always loved rap, but it was a hidden talent of mine for a long time. I’m happy that I found a place where I can showcase what I’ve loved to do for so long,” Bseiso said.
For Bseiso, rap is also a form of empowerment.

Having a good breakfast a great way to start a day of learning.
Eric RizzoStaff Writer
Everyone seems to know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, yet most peo-ple don’t know the reason why. According to Suzie Goodell, a registered dietician on cam-pus and an assistant profes-sor in food, bioprocessing and nutrition sciences, your body still uses fuel while you sleep, so you need to replenish that fuel when you wake up to “kick-start” your brain.
With college being a stress-ful time, students don’t always think about what they eat for breakfast, if they eat it at all. However, some students have the right idea.
Jacquelyn Watson, a fresh-man in nutrition science, said, “I value a good breakfast be-cause it gets the metabolism going, so you can focus in class.”
Yet the question of what is considered a “good breakfast” remains. “I wouldn’t say there is a perfect breakfast,” Goodell said. “But you certainly want more than one food group.”
Goodell recommended a “breakfast trio.” By having three different food groups, according to Goodell, you can have an excellent breakfast. However, she stressed that individuals should just eat something for breakfast. Some things may be healthier than others, according to Goodell, but step one is eating some-thing – whatever it may be.
Health is something that concerns everyone, especially when it comes to breakfast. “I eat eggs, yogurt with granola, or a bowl of cereal every day,” Tyler Allen, a sophomore in biological sciences, said. Some people may think that eating eggs everyday is a terrible idea, due to their effect on choles-terol; however, according to Goodell, unless someone has
a history of high cholesterol, having an egg or two per day is fine.
Moreover, the size of break-fast also comes into play. “You don’t need a lot of food for breakfast,” Goodell said. “A 300 calorie breakfast is sufficient.”
According to Goodell, eating a large, Sunday-morning-style breakfast every morning is not healthy and would prob-ably lead to weight gain. So a small or moderately portioned breakfast is best.
For students living the col-lege lifestyle, mornings do not a lways seem to be the most flexible times of the d ay. How-ever, there is a timeframe on when one should break the fast. Ac-cording to Goodell, 30 min-utes to an hour after we get up is a good time to eat breakfast. If we wait until three hours after waking up, according to Goodell, it is a little too late for breakfast. “If you’re studying in the morning, eat before you try to think,”Goodell said.
This leads to the question of the effects of eating breakfast, or lack thereof. “I’m usually more tired in class if I don’t eat breakfast,” Sarah Meiers, a
freshman in mechanical engi-neering, said. Goodell claimed individuals have better brain function after eating breakfast. For students, this means better performance in class.
Eating in the mornings is ide-al, but to gain optimum ben-efit from breakfasts, Goodell suggested avoiding sugary cereals.“Instead you should eat whole grain cereals like Kashi,” Goodell said. Sugary cereals, or sugar in general, spikes your blood sugar, kicking it out of equilibrium. For a healthy diet,
this should be avoided.
Another way to eat a h e a l t h y breakfast is to avoid eat-ing breakfast meats on a dai ly basis. Breakfast meats have a
high fat content, which is det-rimental to a healthy diet in large quantities, according to Goodell.
Although you may want to skip breakfast and hit that snooze button one more time, eating breakfast can drastically improve your classroom per-formance.
“Not all research says you have to eat breakfast,” Goodell said. “But there are many ben-eficial reasons to eat breakfast.”
Studies show better breakfasts effect classroom performance positively
As autumn begins to settle in, so will the latest fashion trends as they take over campus.
Ashley SimonsStaff Writer
As the fall weather sets in, it’s time to transition closets to warmer apparel and acces-sories. The fashion world is full of fun and chic trends for the current season. Any outfit can be made fashionable for fall with the proper key pieces.
“Trench coats are definitely in,” said Tomi Oyelowo, a se-nior in accounting. “White V-neck tees and boyfriend style shirts are also a must in every closet.” Oyelowo recommend-ed pairing jeans with these pieces for a great look.
Although the trends in cit-ies like London and Paris are usually ahead of trends in the United States, one student fash-ionista is already prepared for this fall. Elizabeth Weinstein, a senior in French and commu-nications, said, “While study-ing abroad in France last year, I bought some lace-up booties with stacked heels, and sure enough, the trend has made its way to the States for this fall.”
While the fall weather will usher in chic outfits, keeping warm is an essential factor to keep in mind before leaving the house. According to Weinstein, dressing warmly without sacri-
ficing style is possible.“Ponchos and capes are defi-
nitely a trend for outerwear,” Weinstein said. Weinstein claimed anything with fringe – bags, jackets and moccasins – would add a stylish touch to an ensemble.
Morgan Howell, a senior in psychology, predicted that leather skinny pants will be an “it” piece for fall. Howell said leather skinny pants, paired with a chiffon blouse and a blazer, create the perfect edgy but chic outfit.
However, fall fashion is not fall fashion without sweaters. Sweater weather this year will be a little less conventional, as sweaters are predicted to be ushered in with new designs.
“I’m looking forward to see-ing cropped sweaters,” Howell said, “They’re retro and fun.”
Cropped sweaters can be worn with a maxi skirt or flare jeans for a vintage 70’s style.
According to Roxanne Chap-pell, a senior in communica-tions, f loral prints, neutral tones and stripes will be a hit this fall. Chappell claimed sheer, f lowing blouses and off-the-shoulder tops would be flattering in the aforemen-tioned colors and patterns.
Bold pants are also a fall trend Chappell was looking forward to. “This fall, pants are going to be wild in both patterns and material,” Chap-pell said. “I will definitely be adding a pair of sequin pants
to my collection.”With so many dif ferent
trends to pick and choose from,
this season is sure to be an ex-citing season to dress for. Add-ing some of these key pieces to
a wardrobe will help any outfit make a trendy statement.

I rap, the stutter goes away,” Bseiso said. “My voice is smooth, strong and clear. There are no blockages or hesitations; it’s just me speaking. I don’t have to go through the same
impediment I deal with day in and day out. It’s an escape to regular speech.”
The setting is informal; ev-eryone is welcome to watch and to partake in the rapping.
“There’s poetry, freestyle, rhymes - anything goes,” Staton said. “It’s a free, non-judgmental environment. As an artist, it means a lot to me
that we can all just come out here and show our talent and everyone is going to respect it, no matter what your style is or what you rhyme. This is not only a way for me to get my mu-sic out and grow as an artist, but to experience other artist’s talents as well.”
Bseiso agreed with Staton about the cypher’s atmosphere.
“It’s a very easy environ-ment. Anyone can come in and rap. Everyone will respect you for having the courage to come into the cypher and show your stuff. I’ve met a lot of guys and we’ve become friends.”
Rustin McWhorter, a fresh-man in nuclear engineering, happened to be walking back from the library to his dorm
last Monday night and came across the cypher. He and his friends heard them rapping and decided to stop and listen.
“When I first dropped by, I was a little confused at what was going on, but I liked rhym-ing and they sounded really good,” McWhorter said. “It’s interesting to watch and you get to hear fresh rhymes. I’ve
been telling my friends who are into hip-hop and freestyl-ing about it.”
While word-of-mouth has spread news about the cypher’s existence around campus, many people still stumble upon it in the same fashion that Mc-Whorter did – a random Mon-day midnight trip through the Free Expression Tunnel.

Leather Leather has always been a fall favorite. This year, change things up with leather shorts to be paired with neutral-colored blouses and booties. Metallic shades also give a unique sheen.
Metallics Metal-inspired shoes, jewelry, tops and even pants are in this season. To ensure a gaudy-free outfit, avoid bright silvers and golds for darker hues like bronze and midnight blue instead.
Velvet Velvet can be overwhelming so it’s best to keep it in small doses through velvet booties. Small accessories like velvet footwear can ease the transition from fall to winter.

socially, but has also allowed him to hone his leadership skills. The Wolfpack cricket team is currently ranked sixth in the nation and is currently the defending champion of the Mid-Atlantic Champion-ship.
“Ever since my f irst se-m e s t e r a t State, I start-ed play i ng cricket, so from the be-g i n n i ng i t has helped me in mak-ing good friends,” Parekh said. “Working as a president, I got
an opportunity to meet vari-ous club sports officers, got a chance to interact with them and know their culture. Being a club sports officer has built my self-confidence and also helped me develop better leadership and management skills.”
Parekh also stressed how satisfied he is with the prog-
ress the club has made and the impact it has had on the locals.
“I am very muc h i m-pressed by the ground facilities provided here for cricket, despite [it]
not being one of the popular sports. I do remember compar-
ing cricket with baseball and explaining it to my American friends at one point of time, but it excites me now when they ask me about our game results and details. Overall, more people are taking interest in the sport of cricket.
“Those days are gone when we needed to compare cricket with baseball and explain it to people.
The cricket club meets on Fri-days at 6 p.m., on the Method Road fields/Lee fields. Contact Hardik Parekh at [email protected] to get involved with the club.

to be a wide-open division title. Reinforcements on the defense could possibly return, and the Pack desperately needs it – Georgia Tech is averaging 9.4 yards per play four games into the season.Next Game: vs. Georgia Tech (10/1, 3:30 p.m.)
Wake Forest (2-1, 1-0 ACC): “You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid” – The OffspringYoung quarterback Tanner Price can make a case for being the most improved signal caller in the
ACC, and he has the Deacons in position to challenge for a bowl game. Price and the rest of a youthful Wake squad are currently third in the ACC for both total defense and total offense as they head to Chestnut Hill.Next Game: at Boston College (10/1, 12:30 p.m.)
COASTAL DIVISIONDuke (2-2, 1-0 ACC): “It’s Now or Never” – Elvis PresleyWhile the Devils will remain on top of the Coastal division whatever its result this weekend in South Florida, the nonconference road trip to FIU is an absolute must-win. Coming off of two consecutive victories, Duke needs four more victories to become
bowl eligible, and three currently ranked opponents are still on the schedule.Next Game: at Florida International (10/1, 7 p.m.)
#21 Georgia Tech (4-0, 1-0 ACC): “No One Knows” – Queens of the StoneageRunning (and passing) over everything in sight, no one knows exactly how to contain the Rambling Wreck’s prolific offense. When the nation’s top-ranked offense faces the nation’s no. 93 defense, the Yellow Jackets hope to keep the opposition’s confusion alive.Next Game: at North Carolina State (10/1, 3:30 p.m.)
Miami (1-2, 0-1 ACC): “Wake Me Up When September Ends” – Green DayFrom national ridicule because of an off-the-field debacle to a heartbreaking loss at home to Kansas State, the Canes are ready to flip the calendar. Miami should have no problem with an FCS opponent before trying to play spoiler at Virginia Tech.Next Game: vs. Bethune-Cookman (10/1, 3:30 p.m.)
North Carolina (3-1, 1-1 ACC): “Escape” – MetallicaA dangerous match-up for Everett Withers’ UNC team, the Heels will do everything they can to escape Greenville with a victory. Although Dominique Davis and
ECU have been quiet early on in the season, the Pirates’ pass defense has skyrocketed from 107 in the country last year to 17 in the country this season.Next Game: at East Carolina (10/1, 8 p.m.)
Virginia (2-2, 0-1 ACC): “A Shot in the Arm” – WilcoNo one in the conference needs a jolt quite like the Cavs do – a loss at home to an average Southern Miss team has dampened bowl hopes and put UVA behind the eight ball. With an easy nonconference game before jumping into ACC play, the Cavs will try to lean on its defense (first in the conference in tackles for a loss) to make some noise.
Next Game: vs. Idaho (10/1, 3:30 p.m.)
#11 Virginia Tech (4-0, 0-0 ACC): “Let’s Get It Started” – Black Eyed PeasNot only is conference play finally getting started for the Hokies, but the competition has been drastically ratcheted up after a soft nonconference docket. Ranked seventh in the country for rushing, dark horse Heisman candidate David Wilson will look to damage Clemson’s No. 86 rush defense.Next Game: vs. Clemson (10/1, 6 p.m.)

Ranked No. 6 in the country, N.C. State cricket team popularizes sport.
Rishav DevStaff Writer
Far from a spot l ight usually reserved for var-sity athletics, N.C. State’s cricket club has quietly built themselves into one of the country’s most prolific pro-grams. Students of all back-grounds, many of whom are estranged from their homes thousands of miles away, rely on the cricket club to feel at home.
Despite the lack of famil-iarity with the sport in the state of North Carolina, the University’s cricket club has been consistently successful over the past several years. Competing with the likes of Ohio State, Rutgers and Purdue, the Wolfpack has often been ranked No. 1 in the country.
Kaushik K. Gopalakrish-nan is a graduate student in computer engineering and the president of the club. As a native of India, he said he loves the game for many reasons, one of which is the fact that both individual and team performances are equally important to the success of a team.
“I love the way it gives you the responsibility when your team needs you, and at the same time you realize the importance of teamwork,” Gopalakrishnan said. “I love
the way the game captivates your interest.”
Gopalakrishnan also admit-ted to having a unique experi-ence in contrasts between how he plays the same game at home in India and in the U.S.
“Cricket here in the U.S. is very different from cricket in India,” Gopalakrishnan said. “The playing surfaces I have played on here are new to me, and I have never seen them before. It is a whole new expe-
rience and I feel I learn a lot from that. It is not passionate as it is in India, and that is why we want to promote the game among the local people.”
Mufaddal Noorbhaiwaala, a graduate student in integrated manufacturing systems and also a native of India, claimed that cricket remains a big part of his life despite the heavy workload he has had to face in school.
“It’s very important,” Noorb-
haiwaala said. “Although the workload is enormous in the first semester, I can’t even think of abandoning cricket for any-thing else. It has always been my favorite game. “
Noorbhaiwaala also attrib-uted cricket to be one of the reasons that have made settling down in a new country easy.
“It has introduced me to so many new people and good cricketers,” Noorbhaiwaala said. “I always look forward
to our games and practice ses-sions. It’s like an incentive and a motivation for me to study hard and take a deserving break to do something so con-structive.“
According to Hardik Parekh, a graduate student in civil en-gineering and the captain of the N.C. State cricket team, playing cricket at State has not only helped him to settle down

Women’s Golf team earns first national ranking in program historyIn the midst of its best start in program history, the Wolfpack women’s golf team has earned a ranking for the first time since Golf World/NGCA Division I women’s coaches rankings were revived in 2001-2002. While checking in at No. 23 in the country, coach Page Marsh’s girls have already set school records for lowest three-day total and lowest team round, with all three scores equal to or better than the previous record. The Wolfpack, winners of the Cardinal Cup and fourth place finishers at the Cougar Classic, will head to Chapel Hill for the Tar Heel Invitational beginning October 7.

All-American Cozzarelli balances celiac disease with running.
Phil MisklowStaff Writer
Being a college athlete is a daunting task. Athletes juggle practice, classes, competitions, homework and a social life. There is little time for them to do anything else.
Now, imagine you are an All-American athlete and a leader on a high-caliber team, and you’ve discovered you have an immune defi-ciency called celiac disease. Celiac disease is an immune deficiency where the body cannot properly digest glu-ten. These are the pressures Andie Cozzarelli faces ev-eryday.
Cozzarelli, a senior in civil engineering, is one of the senior leaders on the NC State women’s cross country team, which looks to com-pete for an ACC title. Coz-zarelli earned All-American status in the 10,000 me-ters during track this past spring, after discovering she has celiacs.
Cozzarelli was suffering during last year’s cross-country season and could not figure out why. She always felt ill, and even though she was training harder than ever, she was not racing up to her stan-dards.
“[During] my fresh-
man year, I was tired a lot, [and] my iron levels were not very good, so that was a problem,”Cozzarelli said. “My runs killed me and I hated them. I started gaining weight, so my times were worse than they were in high school and I didn’t know why.
“I was frustrated that I didn’t know what was wrong.”
After talking with the team nutritionist, Cozzarelli real-ized she was a celiac. After
spending nearly a week gluten-free, her symptoms begin to clear and she be-gan to feel better on her runs. It was not easy for her to change eating habits overnight. Since she can’t have any gluten, she can’t simply walk into a dining hall and eat what she likes. She has learned what type of gluten-free pastas and foods
Clemson, Virginia Tech highlight our look at this weekend’s games around the conference.
Sean FairholmDeputy Sports Editor
After an embarrassing weekend of football, the ACC is preparing to pick up the pieces with several games within the conference. Completing the week five slates, Maryland, Miami, Virginia, North Carolina and Duke jump out of conference while Florida State has a bye week to regroup from two consecutive losses. In this week’s round up, Technician assesses upcoming games and the state of all 12 conference teams via music.
ATLANTIC DIVISIONBoston College (1-3, 0-1 ACC): “The Way We Were” – Gladys KnightLooking to avoid its first losing season since 1998, the Eagles are trying to rekindle a traditionally strong defense. After a difficult start to the season, BC desperately needs a win against Wake to keep the streak and the bowl hopes alive.Next Game: vs. Wake Forest (10/1, 12:30 p.m.)
#13 Clemson (4-0, 1-0 ACC): “The New Kid in Town” – The EaglesUp next for the current toast of the ACC is a trip to Blacksburg to take on the Hokies of Virginia Tech. Leading the conference in passing
with 313 yards per game, Tajh Boyd will try to prove Clemson’s energized start to the season isn’t just a mirage.Next Game: at Virginia Tech (10/1, 6 p.m.)
#23 Florida State (2-2, 0-1 ACC): “Losing Touch” – The KillersFollowing two difficult losses versus top-ranked Oklahoma and No. 21 Clemson, FSU receives a well-deserved good-bye. However, the ‘Noles could be losing touch in the Atlantic division race if they wake up Sunday morning to find division rival Clemson has upset Virginia Tech. Next Game: at Wake Forest (10/8, 12:30 p.m.)
Maryland (1-2, 1-0 ACC): “You Don’t Know Me” – Ben FoldsIn the span of three weeks, the Terps have gone from realistic Atlantic division contenders to owners of the ACC’s worst loss of the season to date – a 38-7 humiliation at home against Temple. Despite two consecutive losses, can Randy Edsall show which Maryland team will show up in conference play?Next Game: vs. Towson (10/1, 3:30 p.m.)
North Carolina State (2-2, 0-1 ACC): “Help is on the Way” – Rise AgainstDespite early-season injuries magnifying a difficult start to the year, State is still well within range of competing for what appears
