Changes to THEO 1001 a step toward diversity

After a research process that included self-study and reflec-tions from past and current teaching assistants, the theol-

ogy department will change that the manda-tory Theology 1001 course,

housed within the College of Arts & Sciences. It will be re-structured next semester to in-clude several professors and religious denominations.

The new sections of Theology 1001 will be team-taught and are intended to introduce students to multiple perspectives on theo-logical reflection. Each teach-ing team will include Christians from various churches, one or more scholars from other re-ligious traditions, laymen, women and a Jesuit.

A University of Iowa senior is in a medically-induced coma after being struck by a car early Saturday morning while visiting a friend at Purdue University. According to the Daily Iowan, an independent campus news-paper at Iowa, Nicole Ruffolo was struck at 3:08 a.m. after de-clining a ride home from a Pur-due bar because she “did not want to go home with anyone who had been drinking.”

The driver originally fled the scene before being detained by police minutes later, the paper reported. Ruffolo, a Blooming-dale, Ill. native, was put into

A Milwaukee police officer who conducted illegal strip searches and cavity searches on male sus-pects will not be convicted for sexual assault after pleading no contest to four felonies and four misdemeanors Monday.

According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Michael Vag-nini will have to leave his job as police officer for misconduct in public office. Vagnini will not have to register as a sex offender. Prosecutors could send him to prison in June.

The criminal complaint said Vagnini regularly pulled over drivers and searched them without a legal reason, conducting search-es of men’s anal and scrotal areas, according to the Journal Sentinel.

Vagnini is one of four officers charged for illegal strip searches. All are charged with misconduct in office but not sexual assault.

Cousin’s Sub Sandwiches was the target of an armed robbery Friday at 7:26 p.m. The Milwaukee Police Department reported the robbery to the Department of Public Safety. No injuries were reported.

Students were sent a safety alert about the robbery over text at ap-proximately 7:32 p.m., which report-ed the crime at the sandwich shop located near 16th and Wisconsin.

The suspect, who was carrying a gun, reportedly fled the scene west on foot. He was last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, with the hood up, black pants and a white baseball cap. In addition, he was carrying a black bag.

The suspect was described as an African American male with dental issues, stocky and in his 40s.

DPS urged the Marquette com-munity to contact the department immediately if the suspect is seen around campus. In addition, people are encouraged to spread the infor-mation of the said suspect to others.

Students run in honor of victims

To honor those runners in the Boston Marathon who could not finish the race last Monday after the terrorist attack at the finish line, a group of Marquette students who ran the race organized a 5-mile run Sunday afternoon. Approxi-mately 50 students attended the race and raised more than $100 for the “One for Boston” fund.

The students who organized the race were Meg McCaffrey, a junior in the College of Nursing, Gina Bartindale, a sophomore in the Col-lege of Nursing, Jaclyn Liebforth, a junior in the College of Nursing, and Sarah Parks, a senior in the College of Nursing. McCaffrey, Bartindale, and Parks all ran in the race, while Leibforth, who quali-fied for the race, did not participate because of a knee injury.

McCaffrey said the event was inspired by students at Boston College.

“After the tragedies that took place on Monday, we saw that Bos-ton College was hosting an event,” McCaffrey said. “Students were in-vited to run the last 5 miles of the marathon- from BC to the finish line- for those who could not.”

The event at Boston College was canceled after safety concerns arose about the size of the event — more than 10,000 people said they would attend the run and more than 30,000 people were invited on Facebook.

Donations can still be made to the organizers of the Marquette race.

finances released Friday re-vealed that the system has more than $648 million in cash re-serves, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Monday.

The money, held in various accounts at different campuses, amounts to 25.7 percent of the system’s unrestricted fund-ing and is composed mostly of tuition receipts. According to a UW spokesperson, the system has plans for $441.2 million in the reserves, but he also said that the system did not “draw attention” to the money.

Following the report by the Legislative Fiscal Bureau, Re-publicans in the state legisla-ture have called for a tuition freeze and blocking of taxpayer funding to the system. Tuition at UW schools has risen by 5.5 percent every year for the past six years, with a higher amount for UW-Madison stu-dents. Should the system be stripped of its spending, it would lose out on $181 mil-lion over the next two years but still would be given more than $1 billion in guaran- teed money.

Overall, if both tuition and spending are frozen, the UW system would have to deal with having $210 million less for the next two years.

MUSG discusses sexual violence training programsTwo students elected to sit on Student Org. Funding committee

Marquette Student Govern-ment discussed sexual violence and elected two senators to open positions on its Student Orga-nization Funding committee at its meeting Thursday night.

SEXUAL VIOLENCE TALK

MUSG met with Sue Coo-per, the coordinator of Sexual Violence Services at Student Health Services. Cooper was invited to discuss sexual vio-lence awareness programs at Marquette in anticipation of “Denim Day,” a sexual violence awareness event that takes place Wednesday.

million in merit-based achieve-ment awards to Marquette in his will, the university announced last week.

Dr. Robert C. Olson, who passed away in December 2010, and his wife, Patricia Olson, gave their children the task of deciding which depart-ments the money will fund. Based on their time and ma-jors as graduates of Marquette, Margaret (Peg) (Physical Ther-apy ’75), Jane (Interpersonal

Communications ’77) and Ste-phen (Steve) (Speech, Broad-cast Communications ’78) chose to split the $1 million gift between the College of Health Sciences, the College of Com-munication and the Division of Student Affairs.

“We all talked about how we would split up the amount evenly and how to best repre-sent our parent’s wishes,” said Steve Olson, who chose to do-nate one third of the money to

the College of Communication.Olson said he chose the Col-

lege of Communication be-cause he is an alumnus of the college and believes in the use of technology throughout the communication curriculum.

“This money for the Col-lege of Communication will go to encourage students to be more inquisitive and in-volved,” Olson said. “It will also assist with additional train-ing and seminars for faculty,

staff and students about new technology practices.”

Jeydelyn Martinez, a freshman in the College of Communication, said she supported that focus.

“Investing in more technol-ogy and funding in the College of Communication is a great idea that will advance the col-lege in many ways,” she said.

“The more assistance stu-dents receive, the more like-ly they’ll go to college, and possibly choose Marquette,” Martinez said.

Kathleen Ludington, di-rector of development in the College of Health Sciences, worked closely with the family on the donation.

“Dr. Olson originally placed MU in the will in 1999,” Lud-ington said. “The family thought it was extremely important to preserve their father’s ongoing legacy at Marquette.”

Ludington said Jane, the daughter of the late Dr. Ol-son, was an RA during her time at Marquette and was very involved in the Division of Student Affairs.

“It’s really neat how each of the three children chose depart-ments that impacted their Mar-quette experience,” she said.

Lawrence Pan, chairman and professor in the physical ther-apy department, said the de-partment will consult with the Olsons to ensure that their do-nation benefits current students.

“I have worked with the Ol-son family since 1999 on this donation – that was part of the estate planning,” Pan said.

Pan said the donation will provide scholarship money to physical therapy students who are in the professional phase of the program and do not have ac-cess to undergraduate financial aid. Pan said it will also fund professional development for students and faculty.

Ludington said the Olsons’ legacy will affect Marquette for years.

“Students, faculty and staff will see the ramifications of this great gift to the univer-sity for many, many years,” Ludington said. “For some, it will be a pivotal part in their college success.”

“I really love talking to the senators because they ask some great questions,” Cooper said. “They provide wonderful feed-back that we can use as we con-tinue to look at the program-ming we have for the students.”

Cooper highlighted the train-ing programs that Marquette makes mandatory for all in-coming freshmen who live in the dorms, all students travel-ing abroad and all international students attending Marquette.

Sexual violence training be-came part of Marquette’s ori-entation process in 2011. This year, 92 percent of underclass-men living in dorms underwent training. Cooper said one of the things Marquette needs to focus on is increasing participation in the program. Cooper said these training programs are important because they educate possible bystanders to sexual assault.

“What we know is that 94 percent of men will never com-mit sexual assault,” Cooper

said. “Of that remaining 6 per-cent, only 2 percent may com-mit those offenses one time. So we are really looking at this very small percentage of the population that offends.”

This means a much larger portion of the student popula-tion is likely to be a bystander to sexual assault at some point. Recognizing those situations is key to stopping sexual assaults before they happen, she said.

“Sue was great,” said MUSG Legislative Vice President Kyle Whelton, a sophomore in the College of Arts & Sciences. “When I reached out to her, she was very passionate, and I was glad to have her here.”

SOF COMMITTEE ELECTION

MUSG held an election to fill the two vacant seats on the Student Organization Fund-ing committee. Senators Jason Kurtyka, a sophomore in the

College of Arts & Sciences and McCabe Hall senator, and Matthew Walker, a freshman in the College of Arts & Sciences and Abbottsford Hall senator, won the two seats. (Kurtkya is also a Tribune reporter.)

The SOF process has been a major issue for MUSG over the past several months. Walker said the committee must ad-dress the reimbursement pro-cess and questions about what the funding can be used for.

“We’ll allocate the mon-ey, and there will be money left over because (organiza-tions) aren’t going through the

reimbursement process,” Walk-er said. “Student organizations don’t know they can use that money for different events. The biggest thing right now is to learn how the process works even more.”

Whelton said he is ex-cited about the new senators on the committee.

“Kurtyka is extremely quali-fied,” Whelton said. “He’s very active, and I think he’s going to learn well. Sena-tor Walker is also very active. Very smart mind. Financial mind. I’m excited to see him working in that capacity.”

Religion: Students wish for more diversity in theology courses

will be team-teaching the course next semester. “The team-taught sections will provide an oppor-tunity to expose a greater num-ber of students to the religious diversity of our faculty.”

Masson said the department decided to make changes to the class prior to a forum held in September about LGBT issues and experiences in Theology 1001.

“Besides the usual assessments which we do every year of all our courses, we did a self-study with consultants from the Wa-bash Center and brought back (teaching assistants) from the last 10 years to reflect on their experiences,” Masson said. “We had determined to make changes before the LGBT issues in The-ology 1001 arose this year.”

The current introductory the-ology course is taught by in-dividual professors and covers mostly Christian and Roman Catholic texts. There is only one

theology elective that handles multiple world religions. Jew-ish Student Union President Ryan Perel, a sophomore in the College of Business Administra-tion, said he hoped this would change. Jasleen Bhasin, a ju-nior in the College of Business Administration, agreed.

“We should have more than one world religion class,” Bha-sin said. “It would help people understand other religions be-sides Catholicism.”

The new Theology 1001 class will be open to all students and meet as a large group on Wednesdays for a traditional lecture class period. It will also meet in smaller groups on Mondays and Fridays, similar to a discussion section.

“All professors should in-clude Judaism and Islam to achieve one of the outcomes of this core course, which is to describe theologically the basic content of the Catholic faith in relation to other Christian and religious traditions, as well as

other world views,” theology professor Jame Schaefer said.

The change in introductory theology classes shows a grow-ing concern for religious di-versity at Marquette, an issue that has been controversial and central to the university over the past several years.

AN ‘INTERFAITH REALITY’

Two Christians, a Muslim, a Sikh and an atheist meet to discuss the purpose of life. No, this is not the beginning of a joke – it’s the beginning of a Spirituality Education Aware-ness and Sikhism meeting and a discussion about religion, philosophy and increasing diversity on campus.

Bhasin, a Sikh, started SEAS last fall to provide an outlet for students and faculty to learn about other religions. Each meet-ing focuses on the discussion of a single question, like “What is the purpose of life?”

“Our purpose is not to con-vert people,” Bhasin said. “It’s about learning other people’s beliefs and becoming more religiously aware.”

Bhasin said she created SEAS because she felt there were not enough student groups edu-cating the student body about religious diversity.

“We need to have events to relate our differences togeth-er,” Bhasin said. “Even though we’re different, we’re still the same. We’re still humans.”

Marquette’s student body is mostly Christian. According to the yearly Freshman Census, more than 89 percent of the class of 2016 identified as ei-ther Catholic or another variety of Christianity. This means 10 percent of Marquette identifies as religious minority students, with 2 percent of another world religion, 6 percent non-religious and 2 percent unknown.

The vague term “another world religion” bothered Steve Bla-ha, the university’s director of

ecumenical and interfaith out-reach, who broke down these demographics further. He es-timated that 1 percent of Mar-quette’s population is Muslim and that less than 1 percent is Jewish or Sikh.

Alexandra Maglio, a fresh-man in the College of Health Sciences, has attended Catho-lic schools her entire life and said she wished Marquette had more religious diversity.

“There are people of other religions here, like my own roommate, but she’s still Chris-tian,” Maglio said. “I’d rather have it be a little more diverse and to hear about extremely different beliefs.”

Though Maglio and other stu-dents want a more diverse cam-pus, increased diversity comes with new issues to resolve.

The Muslim Student Associa-tion meets on the fourth floor in the Alumni Memorial Union. Blaha said this makeshift prayer space, which is used as an office during the day, is not adequate

Page 5: The Marquette Tribune | April 23, 2013

tribune 5newSTuesday, April 23, 2013

for communal prayer space for an organization of its size. MSA requested help from Marquette Student Government last year to advocate for its own prayer space. MUSG responded with a bill supporting the group, but no such space has been created.

“For something like this, all we can do is ask the admin-istrators to look into making these changes,” said MUSG Student Life Committee Chair Heinz Schelhammer, a senior in the College of Business Ad-ministration, in an email. “It is up to the school to make the needed changes.”

Schelhammer said mak-ing room for MSA would mean infringing upon another group’s space.

“They need a space dedicated solely for them, solely for their faith,” Blaha said.

An additional problem Mar-quette’s Muslims face is the lack of a Muslim chaplain in Campus Ministry. All the Cam-pus Ministry staff profess some form of Christianity.

“(Muslim students) need someone who is Muslim them-selves to navigate life and faith questions,” Blaha said.

Blaha said he does not see a Muslim chaplain joining Cam-pus Ministry’s office anytime soon because of a lack of funding.

Another reli-gious minority struggling to find its place on cam-pus is the Jewish Student Union. M a r q u e t t e ’ s housing contract requires fresh-men and sopho-mores to live on campus, which restricts Orthodox Jewish stu-dents from practicing the custom of living in a communal house.

Marquette also does not ex-plicitly offer kosher-certified food. (None of the current JSU members practice kosher, so this is not a problem now.)

“It’s an interfaith reality,”

Blaha said. “We try to make oth-er religions work at a Catholic institution.”

PLANNING AND PARTNERSHIP

When Blaha took his posi-tion in 2007, he immediately saw the need for an interfaith program and began to research other Jesuit, Catholic and pri-vate universities for similar models. It was not until this year that Blaha was able to put his plan into action.

His work resulted in the creation of the Affiliated Ministries pro-gram. Affiliated Ministries part-ners with Marquette and Milwau-kee religious organizations such as Cru, Hillel Milwaukee, InterVarsi-ty Christian Fellowship, Lutheran Campus Ministry and Orthodox Christian Fellowship.

Blaha meets with the presi-dent of all student religious or-ganizations once a month to plan interfaith events in partner-ship with Milwaukee religious institutions.

For example, after the shooting at the Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Blaha and the student leaders held a vigil for the victims. Another event, Fast-A-Thon 2013, was an opportunity for students to fast

and then break the fast together over dinner with a discussion on fasting and its meaning with-in a variety of religions.

Blaha said stu-dents usually feel accepted, adding that students who attend a faith-based university usually have a re-spect for religious traditions and

an openness to all faiths.Liana Hariri, a sophomore in

the College of Health Sciences and member of the Arab Stu-dent Association and MSA, said even though she is part of an underrepresented religion, she still feels like part of the faith community at Marquette.

Students and faculty said Marquette does positive things for religious minorities, including hosting events and panels through Campus Ministry.

“With all of the stress and worries and problems that col-lege brings, I need my God,” Hariri said.

Claire Hackett, a junior in the College of Arts & Sciences and an atheist, said her theol-ogy classes have been the hard-est classes she’s taken because she comes from a non-reli-gious background. She said she wished there were more classes with religious diversity.

“The best way to learn about the world is by looking at other (reli-gions),” Hackett said.

Hackett said friends who know she’s an atheist are surprised she attends Marquette. She said religion is only one important part of the university.

“You go to a school for its mer-its, not its theology,” she said.

The changes being made to the introductory theology class next semester are an attempt to address these issues and make the course relevant for all students.

“It’s not about convincing other people of what I’m teach-ing,” theology professor Irfan Omar said. “It’s about sharing with them. It’s up to students what they want to take away from it. It’s certainly not my goal in teaching to preach.”

Born in India and raised Mus-lim, Omar said he chose to work at Marquette because he believes Jesuit institutions are more accepting of conversations about faith.

Enaya Othman, a visit-ing assistant professor of Ara-bic language and literature, said she thinks Marquette is a welcoming community.

“(Religious diversity) is a religious, social and educa-tional statement by the uni-versity,” Othman said. “The people who represent different religious groups feel comfortable in the Marquette community.”

Othman said she believes the Middle East and North Africa Studies program, which is be-ing developed as a future ma-jor, will help support the Arabic program and will help students learn about the cultures where Islam is practiced. She said the Arabic language minor already helps create this exposure be-cause of the intertwining of religion and language.

Michael Vater, an associ-ate professor of philosophy and a practicing Buddhist who teaches meditation courses in the Honors Program, offers a weekly meditation session for the Marquette community. He said there is a conscious ef-fort to provide opportunities for students to explore other faiths and deepen their own.

“There are a lot of similarities (between faiths),” he said.

‘GOD IS GOD’

At another SEAS meeting, a small group of students from diverse backgrounds – a Bap-tist, two Muslims, a Sikh, and a Catholic – congregate for this interfaith meeting.

The topic is how each religion handles stress. As president of SEAS, Bhasin presents a Pow-erPoint with scriptures from each religion. Upon comple-tion of her presentation, she concludes that her research indicates all religions handle stress in the same way: by turning to God.

“God is God, no matter what religion,” Hariri says. “You need that in college to man-age the stress and problems and worries.”

Claudia Brokish contributed reporting.

They need a space dedicat-

ed solely for them, solely for their faith.”

Hunger: This year’s event raised more than $20,000 for local charities

At the opening ceremony of Hunger Clean-Up Saturday morning, representatives from local charities accepted $3,000 in donations.Photo by Xidan Zhang/[email protected]

During the 9 a.m. opening ceremony, three organizations — Lissy’s Place, Guest House of Milwaukee and St. Vincent de Paul Society — received a $3,000 grant from Hunger Clean-Up. Immediately following the ceremony, students traveled to their work sites and volunteered for three to five hours.

One group of 23 Burke Schol-ars, an academic and volunteer-based scholarship program, vol-unteered at St. Hyacinth Food Pantry on the south side of Mil-waukee. The pantry, which has served the community for more than 100 years, gives out about 16,000 pounds of food a month even though it is only open once a week for two hours.

Jim Luther, the director of St. Hyacinth Food Pantry, estimates that 150 families come on any given week to receive food. Each family can only come once a month per federal regulations.

In addition to food, the pan-try provides clothing and ba-sic hygiene supplies. There are also nurses available for ba-sic medical care as well as a Spanish interpreter for people whose English is limited.

Saturday, the Marquette volun-teers sorted clothing, separated out types of bags and checked the expiration dates on donated food prior to sorting it.

The students said working at St. Hyacinth was an interesting experience.

“Even though we were packag-ing food, we were able to think how (our) work was being used to help the community,” said

Kelly Boehlke, a junior in the College of Health Sciences.

Krieg Tidemann, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences, said he appreciated the pragmatic ap-proach taken by St. Hyacinth to

meet the challenges and problems they encountered.

The students also said that Hunger Clean-Up is a great way to get involved with the extended Milwaukee community.

“Hunger Clean-Up is that one day where we all come together and do work,” Boehlke said.

“It’s a day to raise awareness ... and set an example for the rest of the year,” said Tom St. Peter,

a senior in the College of Health Sciences who has participated in Hunger Clean-Up for four years.

“I think it’s a great campus-wide opportunity,” Tidemann said.

Rains flood classrooms, reveal old foundationsLeak originated in basement of Wehr Chemistry building

Last week’s heavy rains brought flooding across campus, with Wehr Chemistry and the low-lying area outside Coughlin Hall espe-cially drenched. For maintenance staff, the damage was routine.

100 MU students register to donate bone marrowEach year, 10,000 people in Wisconsin need transplants

One hundred Marquette students added their names to the National Bone Marrow registry as a part of “Transplant Hope – An Or-gan Donation Awareness Week,” hosted by Carpenter Tower Hall Council and the Student Health Advisory Board April 15-18.

In Wisconsin, 10,000 people on average need a bone marrow transplant every year, while only 5,000 of them will receive one, according to the Blood Center of Wisconsin’s website.

Bone marrow transplants are necessary for people who have bone marrow disease and some cancers. People who do not re-ceive transplants have a smaller chance of survival, according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine’s website.

The bone marrow registry is a nationwide list where potential bone marrow transplant patients who do not have a match in their families can be referenced for a potential donor match. It cur-rently has more than 60,000 names, according to the Blood Center of Wisconsin’s website.

Health Sciences, are both liaisons for the Student Health Advisory Board. The pair said the board had never organized a bone mar-row registry drive before, so they were surprised and delighted by the 100 people they added to the national registry.

Harl and Landry said the advi-sory board coordinated the Bone Marrow Registry Drive to in-form the student body about other ways they could save lives.

“For people who can’t find mar-row matches within their fam-ily, they must turn to the national registry to find a match,” Harl and Landry said in an email. “Thus, by putting more donors on the reg-istry, there is a greater chance of finding a match for those in need.”

The marrow donation itself is done by inserting a needle into a bone and extracting the marrow. The repercussions of bone marrow donation vary, but in general some of the most common are lower back pain, fatigue, stiffness when walking and bleeding at the collec-tion site, according to the National Marrow Donor Program website.

Amanda Neumann, a sopho-more in the College of Engineer-ing, said she has been involved in donor registration drives since a close relative received an organ donation. She said she realized that there was no organization on campus that raised awareness for organ donations and registrations during her freshman year.

“Last year I did a passive pro-gram on Carpenter Tower’s Lobby with a poster and business cards

and the green plastic ‘donate life/done vida’ bracelets,” Neumann said. “It was a huge success. This year I wanted to expand the pro-gram campus-wide and bring in speakers to talk about their experi-ences and help raise awareness.”

Neumann said the speakers were impressed by how many students came out to listen and that overall the week was a big success.

“I wanted to do the speaker event because after attend-ing several Transplant Support Group meetings in the Madison Area, I realized that the recipi-ents, donors and donor families have so much to share and could teach students much more that I ever could,” Neumann said.

Thomas Wargo, a sophomore in the College of Nursing and president of the Carpenter Tow-er Hall Council, said he hopes the event continues annually.

“Obviously the more students who register the better, but I feel that this is an event that needs to be kept up to constantly add new potential donors to the pool,” Wargo said. “The big impact will not come from just one day of registration but from a con-tinuous push for more donors to help save lives.”

Wargo said the event wasn’t only about trying to encourage people to register, but also about spreading awareness of the issue.

“There are many untrue myths and horror stories about organ transplants that scare many people away from saving lives,” Wargo said.

Chemistry 100 on Thursday morn-ing, water began to seep under-neath the door to the right of the chalkboard. As the class continued, water seeped all the way to where students were sitting.

Kevin Fleming, a junior in the College of Arts & Sciences, was in the classroom when the water came in.

“I wouldn’t say there was that big of an issue,” Fleming said. “I didn’t notice the flooding until someone else pointed it out to me. I would say it was maybe a 5 by 7 (foot) area where the carpet was notice-ably damp, with a larger amount of water in the middle of it.”

Jerry Kohn, Marquette’s assis-tant director of grounds manage-ment, said the leak originated from the building’s basement.

“The water seeped in the spot where the foundation meets the basement floor by room 100,” Kohn said. “When there is a tre-mendous amount of rain, we have a leakage. The last time it happened (there) was 2008.”

Kohn said the water was cleaned up and the floor dried out within 24 hours of the flooding.

“Flooding like this happens when the ground becomes over-saturated.” Kohn said. “Since Wehr is an older building, the

foundation is not as solid.”Kohn said this happens too in-

frequently to warrant any construc-tion. To completely waterproof the basement, workers would have to dig into the foundation from the outside the building. Kohn said this likely will not happen because the maintenance staff is work-ing on making the campus look its best for graduation.

During periods of heavy rain, the low-lying area between Coughlin Hall and the Helfaer Theatre also tends to flood. Kohn said there are two catch basins at the bottom of the area that do a good job of drainage.

“When there is a large amount of rain, the drains can’t handle all of it.” Kohn said. “To alleviate this, we built two stone pathways for the water to travel down.”

Because of this, Kohn said, Coughlin has never flooded. The area often floods because of the absorption of too much salt from the winter, which clogs the drains. Much of the damage to the grass is also due to excess salt, forcing Kohn and his crew to re-seed that area.

“The flooding doesn’t cause any (turf) disease either,” Kohn said. “Right now we just have to rebuild from the winter damage.”

BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT STATISTICS

70 PERCENTof patients in need of a transplant do not have a matching donor in their family.

MORE THAN 10.5 MILLIONpeople are on the list of potential donors.

MORE THAN 12,000people are diagnosed with diseases that could be cured by a bone marrow donation.

ONE IN EVERY 540members on the match registry will donate bone marrow.

CISPA raises privacy concerns despite little attention

cia

fbi

At a time when many Americans stress a need for across-the-aisle partnership in Con-gress, a major piece of legislation passed the House of Representatives Thursday with bipartisan support. The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act is a proposed law designed to permit sharing of Internet traffic information between the government and technology and manufacturing compa-nies. It is intended to help the federal govern-ment investigate and reduce cyber threats by ensuring the security of online networks.

The bill passed the House 288 to 127 with support from both parties, but it is likely it will die in the Senate.

Wanting to ensure Internet safety is a noble, worthwhile goal, but the ends don’t always justify the means. This bill needs examination as to how it relates to issues of privacy and intellectual property. Crit-ics of the bill believe it allows governments and businesses to partner in monitoring and possibly censoring Internet activity. These concerns should be of the utmost concern.

College students in particular may re-call these concerns when they were first raised about a year ago.

On April 26, 2012, CISPA passed the House the first time, 248 to 168, and then failed to pass in the Senate. Just months earlier, in January, Wikipedia, Reddit and thousands of other websites blacked out their services in order to make a statement against similar legislation – the Stop Online Privacy Act and the PROTECT IP Act. Stu-dents who previously had never taken much interest in politics saw the blackout firsthand while surfing the Internet and suddenly took a vested interest in Internet privacy.

Once issues start to seep into our personal lives, they feel more relevant. It is easy to say that there is no problem with CISPA because of a “I have nothing to hide online” mental-ity, but thinking in these terms only walks us further down a slippery slope that narrowly tailors our rights toward state interests.

The USA PATRIOT Act is often regarded with the same apathy that CISPA has re-ceived. That bill, which passed with over-whelming bipartisan support in 2001 by a margin of 357 to 66 in the House and 98 to 1 in the Senate, allowed for roving wiretaps, searches of business records and expanded

surveillance of terror suspects. This was done in the name of fighting terrorism, an-other worthwhile goal, but the slippery slope exists there, too. Even if people thought, “it doesn’t affect me directly” or “I have nothing to hide,” the precedent was set, and privacy remains a conversation begging to be had.

Barrett McCormick, a professor in the political science department, said he be-lieves the CISPA issues come down to evaluating the trade-off of privacy for se-curity, much like with the PATRIOT Act. This could be of particular concern to col-lege students, considering how broad and extensive our Internet usage is.

“I think that the basic issue is how much privacy can we expect for our online lives, and what is a reasonable trade-off between privacy and national security?” McCormick said in an email. “This is of particular interest to college students because college students typically have lots of personal information stored online in places like Facebook.”

An amendment that would have banned employers from asking for Face-book passwords was voted down 224 to 189 over the weekend.

“CISPA has some legitimate goals – help-ing to secure computers and networks from malicious hackers, including hackers work-ing for foreign governments – but, according to critics, unnecessarily compromises our privacy rights,” McCormick said.

CISPA’s intentions are legitimate, but it is important to remember that the Inter-net in many ways is a community. Acquir-ing information by surfing the web paral-lels browsing through a library or a store. Many errands are no longer reserved strictly for the offline community – online shop-ping, from cars to clothes to groceries, is as popular as offline shopping.

We generally want privacy in our everyday, offline activities. That desire should translate fairly easily to our online decisions, even if we do not yet see how it directly affects us.

This issue became relevant to us just a year ago when online hysteria ensued because of CISPA, SOPA and PIPA. Once Wikipe-dia and Reddit re-emerged, however, panic vanished, and order was restored.

As was the case with the PATRIOT Act, CISPA has the potential to impede on our privacy in new, unforeseeable ways. Even though we may not see how this legisla-tion affects us directly, the apathy now will not be excusable when we do feel the effects down the road.

Bourdain adds fresh perspective to CNN

Anthony Bourdain’s new show “Parts Unknown” resembles his previous televi-sion endeavors. In the pilot episode last week, viewers saw images of Myanmar, from the faces of the people that live there, iconic landmarks, bustling city streets and calmer countryside to dishes upon dishes of enticing food. What Bour-dain himself describes as “food porn” makes watchers of the show feel like they can almost smell and taste the things he is eating through their screens.

What is different from previous series, however, is that in the bottom right cor-ner of the screen, instead of the expected Travel Channel logo, there is the red and white CNN logo. This change of network for Bourdain affects both the content of the show and the network’s ratings.

According to the Washington Post, Bourdain’s show, which airs at 8 p.m. CST on Sundays, drew 747,000 view-ers its first week, with about 40 per-cent of those in the 25-54 age range that networks like CNN desire and ad-vertisers on those channels lust after. Those numbers are more than double those that tune in to other news stations, such as Fox, during that time slot.

This may indicate a new trend, or at least a solution to the problem of declin-ing viewership that many news networks are currently experiencing. Seeing some-thing besides the standard, non-stop news coverage, punditry and opinion-yelling, viewers probably appreciate a break and the opportunity to learn something they can’t usually find on CNN. Another up-side of more people watching Bour-dain’s show (and others like it that may

follow), is that people who wouldn’t usually even tune in to the news get a glimpse of global and national headlines around commercial breaks and may be motivated to find out more. This would increase (if only a little) the number of informed citizens in our nation.

The other way the show is affected by a change in station is its content. The ba-sic premise of the show seems to be no different. Long-time Bourdain fans will notice, however, a more historical and political focus. In Myanmar, Bourdain sat down with journalists, critics of the government and politically outspoken musicians to talk to them about what the political situation in Myanmar (for-merly known as Burma) is like. Bourdain himself was only allowed in a restricted area of the country because tourists are cut off from many regions that are still struggling against harsh government control. Bourdain also provided a decent amount of history in his show, highlight-ing the remnants of the British Empire and later military control. He spoke with people who had been imprisoned for holding opinions that contradicted the country’s leaders.

While Bourdain’s show certainly isn’t the cut-and-dry, hard-hitting journalism most people turn to CNN for, through “Parts Unknown,” he is showing America parts of the world to which it may oth-erwise be completely oblivious. This week, Bourdain explored Los Angeles’ Koreatown, bringing to light the fact that there are parts of our own country many Americans do not know much about.

His switch to CNN allows him to take on a more educational role for his audi-ence instead of stereotypical destina-tions more appropriate for an entertain-ment network like the Travel Channel. In a recent interview with Wolf Blitzer, he even said he would love to travel to North Korea to film an episode. Bourdain defi-nitely lives up to his definition of a “good traveler,” and his show lives up to its title.

Marathoners will always persevere

When I heard about the Boston Marathon, I was in a state of shock. I never thought that something like this could happen.

I’d been running for just over two years when I decided to run my first marathon, the Chicago Marathon, last year. My ultimate goal was to run in the Boston Marathon,

Eric Oliver

so Monday’s tragic events hit particularly close to home for me.

I was pondering attempting to qualify for next year’s race, but when this attack happened, it made up my mind for me. I am going to be in the Boston Marathon next year even if it means running faster than I ever have before.

The experience of running in the Chicago Marathon was like nothing that I have ever experienced before. People were scream-ing, clapping and happy. There were cos-tumes, beer, Gatorade, water and lots and lots of granola bars. It was like a little slice of heaven for me and 39,999 friends.

To prepare for the race, I ran up, down and across Milwaukee. I splashed in pud-dles. I drank gallons of water, but I put the work in and I was ready for the reward.

When I woke up at 5 a.m. October 7, 2012, the butterflies were taking over my stomach. I was jumpy. I was antsy. I was nervous. But above all else, I was happy. I had put in the 16 weeks of training with renowned marathon trainer Hal Higdon.

That morning, I arrived at my uncle’s house, and we hopped in his car. The drive to Chicago felt like it took forever, but when we got there, what I saw amazed me. For the first time in my life, the streets of Chicago were empty. There was not a single car to be seen.

I pinned my bid to my shirt, made my way to the start corral and the next thing I knew the race was finally starting.

From the moment you take the first step past the start line, it is obvious this is much more than just a race.

The course is almost spilling over with spectators. Every mile there are people cheer-ing you on, willing you to the finish line.

By the time I finally hit the 20-mile mark, I realized that I was actually going to finish the race. The last six miles were a bit of a blur. I was overwhelmed with the emotion and per-sonal tribulations of the run. Everybody has a story, and in those last six miles they all come to fruition. My story was a simple one. I wanted to cross the finish line.

As I got closer and closer to the “Chicago Heave,” a hill at the beginning of mile 26,

there was a girl down on the ground holding her leg. I debated going on, but I knew the right thing to do was to stop. As soon as I went over to her another runner also stopped, and we helped her get the side so the medical staff could treat her.

It was right there that the marathon was put into perspective for me.

It was not just about the runners, the miles or even the race. It was about a community coming together to do something amazing. Everyone had a personal reason for wanting to be there. Whether that was to run a ridicu-lously long distance or just be part of some-thing spectacular, when you run a marathon you experience something indescribable.

The tragedy of the Boston Marathon will never be forgotten, but I know as long as there are marathons and people to watch them, the race will always go on.

Acts of terror succeed when we become afraid

When news broke more than a week ago of a bombing at the Boston Mara-thon finish line, many worried that there would be an initial fear of running races in the future. Peers, family members and the media expressed this thought as cor-respondents tried to fill air time due to a lack of new information.

This type of sentiment – an assumed fear of the ordinary – frequently follows national tragedies such as the one that occurred last week in Boston.

On Sept. 11, 2001, planes became travel-ers’ worst nightmare as the nation watched the World Trade Center crumble to the

ground. Last July, people claimed they would never re-enter a movie theater after a mass shooting occurred during a mid-night showing of “The Dark Knight Rises” in Aurora, Colo. A mere two weeks later, many questioned the safety of places of worship when a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis., served as the next location of tragedy. In December, parents were afraid to send their children to school when 26 people were killed in a shooting at Sandy Hook El-ementary School in Newtown, Conn.

Last week, a feat meant to exhibit the unbelievable strengths of the hu-man body instead resulted in injuries, amputations and death.

What makes these events terrifying is that they hit so close to home. Almost everyone has gone, or goes, to school, and many attend churches and movie heaters each week.

As for Boston, one of the suspects was eventually discovered in a Watertown resident’s backyard hiding in a boat. If that’s not “close to home” then I don’t know what is.

The events of the past week show that two people can cause an entire city to shut down. From a convenience store robbery

to a shootout resulting in the deaths of a MIT police officer and one of the sus-pects, to a city lockdown including mass transit closures, the situation seemed like something out of a movie starring Vin Diesel or Bruce Willis.

When things like this happen, fiction be-comes reality, and our everyday norms are disrupted. This idea of having such little control over safety in one’s own environ-ment can induce fear, but it shouldn’t.

Although terrible, incidents like these are exceptions. Children across the nation have uneventful school days each week. Sunday church services come and go. People leave movie theaters not because they’re running from a shooter, but simply because the film ends.

Acts of terror are successful if they induce fear in the aimed targets. Be-cause of this, it becomes society’s job to deny the individuals committing such acts the fear they wish to provoke.

The silver lining is that we don’t have to try to do this – the resistance comes naturally through our actions following such tragic events. In fact, such terrible incidents often bring out the best in us.

Extreme acts of kindness, compassion,

unselfishness and courage are exhibited in the midst of the terror and tragedy – a sig-nificant other protecting a loved one during the Aurora movie theater shooting, the role of first responders when the World Trade Center crashed on 9/11, a child leading a group of students to safety in the wake of the Newtown shooting. There were by-standers jumping to aid the wounded rather than fleeing from the finish line to secure their own safety in Boston, and fundraising, donations and victim support initiatives have been established across the nation.

Acts of heroism in the face of danger, as well as simply going to school, church or the movie theater after these trag-edies, speak volumes in combatting the fear we are supposed to feel when others intrude on our everyday routines.

These acts – the simplest, yet greatest kinds of heroism – prove that although fear may be present somewhere, the desire to help those in need and fight against those responsible will always reign supreme.

“ WE GAIN STRENGTH, AND COURAGE, AND CONFIDENCE BY EACH EXPERIENCE IN WHICH WE REALLY STOP TO LOOK FEAR IN THE FACE... WE MUST DO THAT WHICH WE THINK WE CANNOT. ”

James Stark (above) and Gleb Skylr won two matches and earned Marquette the doubles’ point against both South Florida and Georgetown.

Teamsfinishfourth,sixth

Marquette’s tennis team traveled to Tampa, Fla., for the women’s Big East Cham-pionship, while the men had their Big East Championship in South Bend, Ind. The men went 1-2 for a fourth place fin-ish, while the women went 2-2 in the tournament en route to a sixth place finish.

Tournament play started for the women with a clean sweep of Cincinnati in the opening round. The doubles pair of Ana Pimienta and Erin Gebes won 8-2, and closely behind them was Ali Dawson and Aina Her-nandez Soler with an 8-3 victory to give Marquette the doubles point. Singles play started with Gebes and her 6-2, 6-3 finish. Hernandez Soler continued the Golden Eagles’ winning streak with a 6-2, 6-4 victory, and Vanessa Foltinger completed the sweep with a 6-2, 6-4 vic-tory. Marquette never lost a set against the Bearcats.

Marquette advanced and battled with top-ranked Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish re-turned the favor, sweeping the Golden Eagles. Both doubles pairs lost 8-1, while Pimienta was the only Golden Eagles to win a set. She defeated Sanders in the No. 1 spot 6-2 in the sec-ond set but dropped the first set 6-2 and the final set 3-6.

Because of its loss to Notre Dame, Marquette went into the bottom half of the consolation bracket and faced No. 6 Rutgers. The Golden Eagles played their third straight 4-0 match, defeat-ing the Scarlet Knights. Rocio Diaz and Aleeza Kanner started off doubles play with a dominat-ing 8-0 victory, and Pimienta and Gebes won the doubles point with an 8-3 victory. In singles play, Diaz again won quickly with a 6-0, 6-2 victory and was closely followed by Aina Her-nandez Soler, who was 6-2, 6-1. Laia Hernandez Soler won the closely contested first set 7-5, but held on to the second to win 6-3 and complete the sweep.

In its final match of the tour-nament, Marquette lost to Syra-cuse 4-3. Marquette won the doubles point handedly, with an 8-2 victory by Pimienta and Gebes, and an 8-1 victory by Diaz and Kanner. Singles play was not as strong, as Mar-quette was only able to win two matches, both of them be-ing two set victories. Marquette had three three-set matches and lost all of them.

The men’s team started its Big East Championship against Georgetown, and, like the wom-en’s team, won with a sweep. In doubles play, Gleb Skylr and James Stark won the first dou-bles set 8-5, while Cameron Teh-rani and Logan Collins dropped their set. Dan Mamalat and Vukasin Teofanovic managed to get Marquette the doubles point with an 8-3 victory. Ma-malat started off the dominating

singles play with a 6-0, 6-0 victo-ry at No. 1. Teofanovic followed suit with a 6-3, 6-3 victory, and Collins closed out the match with a 6-4, 6-1 victory.

Marquette faced No. 1 Notre Dame in the next round and fell to the Fighting Irish 4-1. Tehrani secured Marquette’s lone win with a 6-4, 6-3 victory in the No. 3 spot. Tehrani and Collins came close to getting Marquette the doubles point but lost 7-9.

In the final match of the tournament, Marquette faced off against South Florida and was one point away from the best finish in program his-tory. After seven matches, the Golden Eagles lost 4-3 and finished the tournament in 4th. Doubles play started with the No. 1 and No. 2 spots trading 8-2 wins, which meant that it came down to the No. 3 spot. Skylr and Stark battled it out and eventually gave Marquette the doubles point with a 9-8 win.

Tehrani started singles play off with a 3-6, 3-6 loss in the No. 4 spot, tying the score at 1. South Florida would add two more points with victories at the No. 1 and No. 5 spot, put-ting the Bulls within one point. However, Javier Varela Hernani started the rally with a 3-6, 7-6, 6-3 victory. Teofanovic tied the match at 3 with another three set victory, winning 7-6, 4-6, 6-4. The match came down to the No. 3 spot between Collins and Federico Sabogal. Collins jumped out to an early 6-1 vic-tory in the first set, but Sabogal rallied, taking the second set 7-5 and secured the victory for South Florida with a 7-5 victory in the third set.

Sports help us cope with tragedies

Unfortunately, our coun-try has had to learn the hard way that sports can be the best escape after tragedy.

After Sept. 11th, 2001, people gathered at baseball games to get away from the reality of what happened to New York City and our country. Professional fran-chises and leagues have helped organize many efforts to help the families of the attack of Sandy Hook Elementary School. Most recently, we have seen the city of Boston come together at Bruins and Red Sox games.

As I approach graduation from Marquette, I’ve started to think about what my role will be for others in the future. Whether I am writing or broadcasting is irrel-evant. I want to be a distraction.

If you follow me on Twit-ter, and even for some of you who know me well, it would be easy to think that my life is all about sports. That’s not an un-fair assumption. Every night I watch whatever game is on instead of my weekly televi-sion show – except for Monday Night Raw, of course. For me, it is the best form of drama.

Friday night, I was bowling at the Annex – fairly unsuccess-fully – when the second sus-pect was caught in Watertown, Mass. I had been following the developments all day, but about 10 minutes after they caught the guy, I asked to have the Brewers-Cubs game turned on.

It wasn’t because I didn’t care. I talked with one of my friends about all the coverage we saw on television throughout the day. I paid attention to the whole thing. After the chase was done, though, I didn’t want to hear anything else about who the bomber was and how he was the least likely person to do something like this.

All of it was pretty depressing. I was sick of hearing interviews about how normal “Djokhar” was before the bombing and how he was the nicest guy. I don’t want to think of him like that. It would be an insult to the amazing peo-ple whom I am lucky enough to call friends because I don’t know anyone who would consider thinking about performing an act of that magnitude.

I couldn’t think of anything I wanted to watch except baseball. Actually, any game would prob-ably have sufficed at that point. It has been attacks like the bomb-ing in Boston that have taught me sports’ true role in our society: to distract and entertain.

Hopefully, our country is never attacked like that again. If it is, then I hope enough time has passed so that I can be a part of the distraction helping people forget about it. Sport is a game. While I will not be do-ing the actual entertaining on the field anytime soon, I want my work in the media to be part of that distraction.

Maag, Winter, Hack-ett, Sliepka post solid times across country

Marquette’s track and field team arrived in California Thurs-day afternoon after two delays altered competition plans. The team’s plane landed in Los An-geles eight hours before seniors Connor Callahan and Patrick Maag stepped on the track for the men’s 10,000-meter run.

FRIDAY

Maag highlighted the night, as he set a 10 second personal best and recorded the 7th best all-time school time in the race.

“The idea for today was to hopefully get on that regional list,” Maag said. “There’s still a couple big meets like Pay-ton Jordan and other relays that could throw down some fast times. If need be we’ll run again, but hopefully this week-end was good enough to take some of that pressure off.”

Callahan left the track disap-pointed, as he finished 30th of 37 with his time of 30:55.34, even though the time met a Big East qualifying mark of 31:00.64. Elisa Meyle also quali-fied with her time of 36:52.44 in the women’s race.

Coach Mike Koenning and his squad of throwers were unable to compete at The Beach Invita-tional since the team arrived late in the afternoon and was slated to throw in the morning.

The meet at California State L.A’s Twilight Open was can-celled after a bomb threat was reported at Jesse Ow-ens Stadium and cancelled all the day’s events.

SATURDAY

Senior Jack Hackett ran the 44th fastest time (14:05.66) in the NCAA and moved up on the regional qualifying list with his 5,000-meter run on Saturday night at the Mt. SAC Relays.

“The plan was to go out

conservative, because the last time (on the track), I was a little over my head,” Hackett said. “I hit it hard in the last mile and brought it home by moving up.”

With his 10-second improve-ment on his time from a year before, Hackett moved into the number two spot for Mar-quette’s fastest 5,000-me-ter run. He now only trails Keith Hanson’s 13:46.72 from the 1972 Drake Relays.

Senior Kyle Winter also held his own in his 800-meter race, as he finished second in his heat behind Nick Hartle of UCLA. Winter stuck around in second place for most of the race and fell behind with 200 meters to go but out kicked Sam Penzenstadler of Loyola and Tyler Kilpatrick of Utah State at the line. Winter’s 1:50.28 is the seventh fastest for the Big East in 2013.

Jumpers stole the show at the Bryan Clay Invitational as Sarah MacCourtney (5 feet, 8 inches), Tate Pashibin (5 feet, 6 inches), Cheldon Brown and Michael Saindon (6 feet, 9 3/4 inches) set season bests in the high jump.

SUNDAY

Back in the Midwest, Mar-quette sent a few distance run-ners to the Phil Esten Challenge at Wisconsin-La Crosse chasing Big East qualifying marks.

Senior Christina Sliepka won the women’s 10,000-me-ter run in 37:26.06, as Sarah Poirier and Rebecca Pachu-ta followed for the top three spots. Junior Hannah Frett finished fifth in 39:03.08

Freshman Patrick Campbell was the lone runner in the men’s 5,000-meter run, and he finished 10th in 16:01.29 in his second race at that distance in 2013.

Freshman Cody Haberkorn fell short of a Big East qualifying time in the men’s 10,000-meter run with his time of 32:02.68 but ended the day with a fourth place finish. Sophomore Mark DiVerde (32:50.62) placed 12th in the same race.

The Golden Eagles will re-group as one for the Benedictine Twilight Invitational in Lisle, Ill., on April 26. This meet is the last chance for runners to notch Big East qualifying marks.

Senior Christina Sliepka won the 10,000-meter run at the Phil Esten Chal-lenge on Sunday with a time of 37:26.06. Sarah Porier placed second.

Bomb threat, delays don’t slow runners

McKay may be next great JUCO transferSix-foot-8 forward starred at Indian Hills CC in Ottumwa, Iowa

Throughout coach Buzz Wil-liams’ tenure at Marquette, junior college transfers have logged big minutes. In 2011-12, Jae Crowder, who transferred to Marquette from Howard College in 2010, became the first player to be named Big East Player of the Year in team history.

Recruit Jameel McKay hopes to continue that trend, as the Mil-waukee native will join the Gold-en Eagles this fall for two years of eligibility after committing to Marquette last June. The 6-foot-8 power forward also considered Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa State, Memphis and Missouri.

In his freshman year at In-dian Hills Community College, a school that produced former

By Trey [email protected]

Marquette guard Dwight Buycks, McKay achieved first team junior college All-American honors.

He led the Warriors to a 33-4 record, a district title and a ninth-place finish in the NJCAA national tourney, scoring 14.6 points per game and grabbing 7.7 rebounds per game. His ac-colades earned him a four-star ranking by both Scout.com and Rivals.com.

Indian Hills coach Barret Peery described McKay as a “long and active athlete” who “gets a lot done around the rim” in an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel last June.

“He plays a high-energy type of game,” Peery said. “He’s a multiple-position defender. He can really run in transition as well as (guard) multiple spots. He’s doing a better job on the perimeter with his ball handling and being able to shoot the ball some. He’s a really high-energy, high-activity, high-motor guy.”

Williams believes McKay is cut from the same cloth as

players like Crowder and Buycks and has definite potential to follow in their footsteps.

“If you follow our program at all, everyone knows that I cheer really hard for those who haven’t had a direct path to their goals,” Williams said. “Jameel is on that list, and I love his story. I love his de-meanor, and I am thank-ful he has made a deci-sion to come here. He has been coached very hard and won at every level throughout his career.”

McKay told JucoRecruiting.com that his impression of Wil-liams as a coach was a main de-ciding factor in his decision to join the Golden Eagles.

“He’s one of the only coaches who has been able to bring in JUCO transfers and move them on to the next level,” McKay said. “I felt very comfortable

with him. He got his start in ju-nior college basketball and that made me feel comfortable.”

In the interview, McKay also cited his desire to move closer to home, allowing his family more opportunity to see him play.

Aside from his drive to reach the next level, Williams said he

sees an un-derlying de-sire to win in McKay that was pres-ent in Mar-quette’s for-mer JUCO transfers.

“ A b o v e all his personal goals though, Jameel wants to win more than anything else,” Williams said. “We have had unprecedented success with transfers, and one of the core reasons is (that) they have a thankful heart for the op-portunity, but an unyielding de-sire to have team success. Jameel fits into that category perfectly.”

Ranked Big East foes once again overwhelm squadWomen fall to 2-14 after losing to No. 19 UConn, No. 5 ‘Cuse

For the second weekend in a row, the women’s lacrosse team faced two ranked oppo-nents. It again failed to win, fall-ing to No. 19 Connecticut and No. 5 Syracuse.

The Golden Eagles fell to 2-14 on the season, and their scoring woes continued. They scored a combined three goals in the first halves of both games.

“Syracuse and UConn are both amazing teams, so whether we won or lost I think we would have competed a little better if we had more belief in our abili-ties in the first halves of those games,” coach Meredith Black said. “The outcome would have been completely different.”

In the first game, on Friday, the Huskies jumped out to a 2-0 lead. Marquette responded with freshman attacker Claire Costanza’s first of three goals on the day, but the Huskies scored five unanswered goals before Marquette scored again. The Golden Eagles trailed 10-2 at the break, with both goals coming from Costanza.

Down by eight, the team took a nothing-to-lose men-tality into the second half and played much better, only giv-ing up five goals and tacking on two for themselves. Marquette lost the game 15-4.

Costanza’s hat trick, the first of her career, was a bright spot.

“I just kind of ran around out there and wasn’t afraid to take any chances,” Costanza said. “I just got some lucky shots off, and I had a lot of support from the teammates around me.”

After a day of rest, the team traveled north to play the Orange in the legendary Carrier Dome Sunday.

Once again, the team came out flat-footed. Before the half was 15 minutes old, they trailed 10-0 to the Orange. Nothing seemed to go right against the No. 5 team in the country, and at halftime, Marquette trailed 13-1, with its

lone goal coming from freshman midfielder Kenzie Brown.

Freshman goaltender Sarah Priem had a busy day in the cage, playing the full 60 min-utes. She faced a total of 39 shots in the contest and made 13 saves on the day.

The second half was another slow-paced grudge match, as

Nicole Gleason had three points (two goals, one assist) in Marquette’s 18-6 loss to Syracuse, which marked the team’s twelfth consecutive defeat.

Marquette fought to keep the score within reason. The Golden Eagles tied the Orange in the half with five goals apiece and looked much better than in the first half.

Aside from Priem’s perfor-mance, sophomore attacker Ni-cole Gleason was the best of-fensive performer for the Golden Eagles with three points (two

goals, one assist), all coming in the second half.

“I didn’t come out strong in the first half, but the second half I just didn’t care,” Gleason said. “I was playing like I should be playing; I wasn’t timid. The sec-ond half I just really sparked it up, because we had nothing to lose. We had everything to gain

from this game, and I just had that mindset in the second half.”

With one game left on the schedule, Marquette hopes to make Black proud as it takes on her alma mater, No. 10 Notre Dame. The game is next Saturday in Notre Dame, Ind., and will conclude the team’s inaugural season.

Men notch milestone home victory over DetroitSolid extra-man of-fense (4-for-7) propels team to fourth victory

The men’s lacrosse team started the fourth quarter of its game against the Detroit Ti-tans Saturday with a 10-5 lead but allowed two quick scores. On the ensuing faceoff, red-shirt junior midfielder Cullen Cassidy won the draw, picked up the ball and raced down the field to score his first goal of the season, spurring a 4-0 Marquette run that sealed the Golden Eagles’ first home win in program history.

In the most recent installment of what coach Joe Amplo has called a “season of firsts,” Mar-quette not only earned its first home win but strung together its first win streak in program his-tory with a second consecutive win. In each of these games, the Golden Eagles matched their season-high mark of 14 goals. Redshirt freshman midfielder Kyle Whitlow, who scored three goals in Saturday’s contest, said the team’s output was a product of cohesive offensive effort.

“We came out pretty hot, we were moving the ball around pretty quickly,” Whitlow said. “It was probably our best of-fensive performance as a team. We had a lot of great ball movement, teamwork and communication. We were all flowing out there.”

Redshirt junior attackman Tyler Melnyk led Marquette’s offensive onslaught. He led all scorers with four goals and dished out two assists for a game-high six points. Whitlow and Cassidy scored three and one goals, respectively, while freshman midfielder Con-nor Bernal and redshirt junior

Tyler Melnyk led Marquette’s attack Saturday, scoring four goals and adding two assists for a game-high six points. “You can settle into games a lot easier if you expect to win,” Melnyk said.

attackman Bryan Badolato, who had not played since March 16 due to a knee injury, each chipped in two goals. Freshman midfielder Blaine Fleming and freshman attackman Brendan Smith posted one goal apiece.

Throughout the game, Mar-quette capitalized on Detroit’s penalties, converting on four of its seven man-up opportuni-ties. The Golden Eagle extra-man offense was ranked No. 8 in the country coming into the game with a 45 percent scor-ing rate. Amplo said his play-ers got back to the sound fun-damentals they exemplified earlier in the season to execute on their man-up chances.

“About three weeks ago, we were the No. 1 man-up (team) in the country then we got complacent a little bit and I thought we weren’t moving the ball as well,” Amplo said. “To-night, it is the same thing of-fensively where we just made the simple play, and when you do that you’re going to wear a team down a little bit. And if you hit your shots, that’s when you see success.”

Melnyk said Marquette’s second consecutive victory means more to the team than just a boost in the win column. He said the Golden Eagles’ ability to put together a win streak during their inaugu-ral season will positively af-fect the team’s expectation of success in the future.

“It’s huge because once you establish that culture, you can expect to win,” Melnyk said. “If you expect to win, it is a lot more fun than coming in and having to panic. You can settle into games a lot easier if you expect to win. That’s huge for us, and I think it will pay off.”

Marquette has a chance to extend its win streak to three when it travels to Louisville, Ky., to take on the Bellarmine Knights today at 2 p.m.

Kyle Whitlow scored three goals in Marquette’s 14-9 victory over Detroit. It marked the program’s first home win.
