GOLDEN, Colo., Sept. 20,2010 Registration has ofciallyopened for the October 2 MinesLeadership Summit, a one-dayevent that will host 2 internationallyrecognized keynotes, 15 breakout

sessions, and three scholarshipopportunities for attending stu-dents.

First announced in June, thisyears Summit will focus on fourcore competencies: vision, plan-ning, communication, and teambuilding. These core compe-tencies will help sculpt thisLeadership Summit into a unique

and benecial experience, saidAlec Westerman, President of theAssociated Students of ColoradoSchool of Mines.

I believe that the four corecompetencies will act as aspringboard for the following yearsas the program evolves to developstudent leaders on campus, add-ed recent graduate Joshua Lau.

Participants will rst hear fromCraig Valentine, the 1999 WorldChampion of Public Speaking for

Toastmasters International and aDistinguished Alumnus from JohnHopkins University. Mr. Valentinewill lead a session on utilizingvision to inspire organizationstoward exceptional results.

One can have excellent vi-sion, said Lau, but if he orshe cannot communicatethat vision to others, the ef-fectiveness and the vision will

ultimately falter and have ahigh chance of failure.

Later in the morning, at-tendees will engage in aplenary dialogue with Mr.Robert Waterman, co-authorof the internationally ac-claimed leadership study InSearch of Excellence, andDistinguished Alumnus ofColorado School of Mines.The old school philosophywas that leaders, the peoplein charge, were the smartones, the ones who toldpeople down the line whatto do, said Waterman. In-stead, todays leaders mustlearn to give up control

in the old sense [and] getcontrol over what matters... results, he added. Youinvest heavily in education,pay based on skill ratherthan seniority, [and] try toerase the distinction betweenworkers and managers.

These experiences andcase studies are essential

to the shared learning experi-ence of the Summit. What youget from the Summit is yourown introduction to some of theconcepts that others think areimportant, explained Waterman.You get a chance to learn a fewof those concepts, weigh themagainst your own experience, [and]use them as a basis for furtherlearning and study.

Breakout sessions have beenspaced through the morning andafternoon, where participants can

select from 15 speakers and top-ics. Ranging from fundamentalknowledge to advanced applica-tion, these breakout sessions havebeen designed to engage everylevel of leader.

It is my hope that through theirexperience in this Summit, Minesstudents will be primed to look forand embrace leadership opportu-nities at all stages in their careers,said Mines President M.W. BillScoggins. Developing these skillsis truly a lifelong process, and Ihope students walk away from theSummit with a sense that they are

just beginning a long journey ofbuilding these skills.

Toward the end of the day,

a drawing will be held for three$500 student scholarships, to beused for personal and professionaldevelopment in leadership. Furtherdetails on scholarships, speakersand sessions can be found onlineat leadership.mines.edu. The2010 Summit is sponsored by TheWilliams Companies, Inc., MWHGlobal, Talisman Energy, and BP.

Staff WriterActions really do speak louder than wordsThere is an unwritten rule at

Mines. Every time a distinguishedgure addresses a group of Minesstudents, that gure is expectedto spend at least one minute ofthat address heaping praise on thequality of Mines students. However,as the authors of a prominent gametheory textbook so eloquently put it,talk is cheap, actions are a far bet-ter indication of intent and beliefs.

Anyone can say good things aboutMines students, so the real test iswhat actions are being taken by

those in a position to act. That is,employers.

This year, as always, the actionsof employers spoke louder than anydistinguished speaker could. CareerDay was sold out with both gym-nasiums in the Student RecreationCenter overowing. Hundreds ofrecruiters, including Mines alumni,spent the entire day meeting withstudents and giving out more ofthe famous Career Day goodies.

This year, Career Day was attendedby over 3100 current Mines stu-dents and recent graduates. Over175 companies, including manynotables such as ExxonMobil andLockheed Martin, were there to talk

with students and take rsums.Some of these companies evenbrought ten or more representativesto the career fair. It would be a fairassessment to describe it as quitea spectacle.

But to leave the de-scription at quite a spec-tacle does not do CareerDay justice; it is far morethan a spectacle. It is themanifestation of years ofhard work and a chance tofeel the meaningful verdictof actions. Whereas thetalk we are accustomedto is cheap, Career Day

is not. According to theCareer Center, the typi-cal cost of Career Day isabout $65,000, but this is

just a pittance comparedto what our future employ-ers spend. Many compa-nies had to pay for airfaresand accommodations forve or ten people in ad-dition to losing aroundthree days of work (not tomention all the goodiesgiven to students). Ca-reer Center director JeanManning-Clark estimatesthat by the time it is allsaid and done, some of

the companies are spending well inexcess of $10,000 on career day.

Though the verdict of actionmirrors the words we are used tohearing, it has a far greater impact.

The fact that many of the bestcompanies in the world thought thatit was worth tens of thousands ofdollars to travel attend Career Dayand get a shot at recruiting Mines

students is a testament to the valueof a Mines degree. And let us notforget that the high starting salariesoffered by these companies speakvolumes as well.

Sydney, Australia Researchers at Univer-sity of Sydney, Australia have found a way to makealuminum as strong as steel, while maintaining its

lightweight properties. By crushing aluminum disksunder 10-ton forces while slowly rotating them, theresearchers have created super-strong aluminum.

The new metal will hopefully come as an economi-cal replacement to titanium, whose high costs limitits use to only the highest-tolerance applications. Thenal product of an alloyed aluminum put under this

stress is a metal that can withstand three times thestress as pure aluminum.

La Jolla, California Over ten years of workhave nally paid off for Glen Nemerow, a researcher

at Scripps Research Institute, as he recently helped

to nally produce a 3-D atomic-scale map of the vi-rus that causes the common cold. The virus, whichcauses many ailments besides the common cold,could potentially solve many problems if it could bere-engineered to help cure gene deciencies and

maladies like cancer. The new 3-D map will pave the

way for new methods in solving old problems.

Harvard, Massachusetts Social networking sitesmay be able to help anticipate the spread of illnessessuch as the H1N1 virus. The idea behind this, as re -searchers Nicholas Christarkis of Harvard University

and James Fowler of University of California, San Diego

have said, is that your friends have more friends thanyou. The person you call a friend is likely to have morefriends than you, and consequently will have more con-tacts than you. By following the infectious diseases andillnesses, these more well-connected people contract,you can accurately predict who will get the illness next.

Laos An extremely rare antelope-like creature wasdiscovered in Laos, a creature thought possibly extinct

because of the infrequency of sightings. The creature,commonly called an Asian Unicorn in Laos, has twohorns (making its nickname a misnomer) and is verysimilar to an antelope. The proper name is saola, arelative of wild cattle, and it is thought that no more thana few hundred currently survive living in the forestedmountains along the Vietnamese-Lao border.

Its not very often that a club

at Mines has the potential to at-tract such a diverse set of inter-

ests, both artistic and technical.

The Mines A/V Club offers just

this opportunity. Just in its begin-

ning stages, Dr. Christian Shorey

serves as the brains behind the

club and explains just what an au-

dio/visual club really entails.

Dr. Shorey, an Earth and En-

vironmental Systems lecturer,

started creating audio podcasts

with more in-depth versions of his

lectures and covers more mate-

rial than a 50 minute class period

would allow. Shorey then expand-

ed into video podcasts, and the

idea for the club was born.

As the name implies, the club

deals with the essentials of audioand visual productions. Though,

as Dr. Shorey said, Were thinking

about a name change because

some kids are saying A/V Club

sounds like high school nerd-

ism. It is Mines after all, but giv-

en the plan to break the club into

three distinct sub-groups, a name

change may be suitable. The three

branches - Educational Outreach,

Camera Equipment Construction,

and Independent Film Group - will

suit a variety of members with var-

ious skills.

Dr. Shoreys interest, given

his teaching background, was

in the rst branch. Presently, his

educational videos take a lot of

manpower to produce. Making

A/V club lls newly cre-ated gap in expertise

an audio recording is one thing,

but creating a full video podcast

requires planning, lming and ed-

iting and is much more involved.

My reason for starting this was[rst], the educational outreach,

Dr. Shorey explained, and with a

grin, added, so, I would love to

get help, of course. You can call

this the Dr. Shorey slave labor

group

High quality audio and visual

equipment is not cheap, however.

And, with the help of a grant from

the Mines Technology Fee, the

club was able to obtain a Canon

XL2 Professional Video Cam-

era. But the camera itself is only

part of the process as there is a

fair amount of other equipment

required to make a professional

grade video. Dr. Shorey explained

that further accessories such as

cranes, dollies, hand stabilizers,and lights are just a few of the

many pieces in audio and video

production.

Once the club is ofcially set

up more Tech Fee grants will be

submitted to purchase the neces-

sary materials to build equipment

and buy what cannot be built.

This is where the Camera Equip-

ment Construction comes in. This

aspect allows the student to put

their skills to work to create the

parts necessary for the lming.

The last component is the In-

dependent Film aspect. Dr. Sho-

rey stated that numerous students

have contacted him since the in-

ception of the club and said they

had similar interests in making

Can you imagine a world with-

out computers? We are coming to

a point in time, or have even sur-

passed it, where some of us may

not know what to do with our-

selves without a computer! Tech-

nology has advanced so much in

so little time that there have been

emerging students who have never

heard of a oppy disk. A solution

to this has managed to pop out of

the woodwork in the past year or

so. Somewhere between Einsteins

and the computer commons front

desk sits a little museum of gad-

gets and gizmos for the world to

gaze upon.

Looking through the glass is

like traveling through time. In fact,

according to Ron Cosseboom,

the morning shift supervisor be-

hind the front desk, the museum is

there to give a brief historical view

of computing. He explains what it

means to students, [Its there] tosee how things are always chang-

ing and that they may take some of

videos but were not sure how to

make them a reality. With the In-

dependent Film Club falling un-

der the umbrella of the larger A/V

Club, they would be able to com-plete their own projects using pro-

fessional grade equipment made

available through this club. While

this bodes well for students inter-

ested in video as a creative out-

let, that is not the only advantage

according to Dr. Shorey. Theres

also a [Public Relations] benet for

the school. For one, were show-

ing that weve got a 21st century

look; two, we can show every-

body in the world where we live;

and third is the education.

Dr. Shorey is condent that

the interest is there and given

time, both students and faculty

will jump on board. What Ive

been doing is trying to expand the

classroom. he explained, thatswhat iTunes U is about. Lets ex-

pand the classroom. We can bring

multimedia into it. Every day be-

fore class I get in there a little early

and start a little ve minute video

sequence, movie, of something

Ive lmed. And its been interest-

ing. More and more students are

showing up early to class. And

they ask questions like What was

that? and it starts a discussion.

The club itself will be organized

like every other ofcial campus

organization. There will be dues

and scheduled meetings as time

progresses.

the visuals for creating newer and

better products. So learning from

the past to better the future is true,

in this case anyway. The display

contains everything from a small

abacus to an iMac G4. Ron points

out that his favorite apparatus is

the automatic slide rule. Most, if

not all, of the items revolve around

computing. We are, after all, in the

computing center.

It is pretty obvious that there is

no end in sight for the advance-

ment of technology, unless of

course 2012 really does bring the

end of the Earth. But hopefully, if

that is the case, someone, some-

where will invent a new device to

save us all. Regardless, as more

technology comes out, the muse-

um will expand. According to Ron,

as time ies by, Well be adding

and changing out (items) as we

move forward. Of course, if you

have some piece of history that

youd like to share, donations are

accepted, stated Ron. If you have

yet to see the wonders of the past,

take the time to stop and smell the

evolution of technology!

Here at Mines, we have many

quirky, eccentric, and just downright

geeky people. We have computer

geeks, rock geeks, physics geeks,and the occasional music geek.

Some have speculated that there

may even be petroleum geeks, only

to have the thought dismissed out

of hand. An Alaskan native, Andrew

Bosela is just such a geek, with a

passion for energy. Heres a moun-

tain man for ya.

Do you consider yourself a

geek?

Ive always been torn between

the terminologies of nerd and

geek, but I guess I would consider

myself a geek, at least to the outside

world. One possible difference be-

tween geeks and nerds is that nerds

like Star Wars and geeks like Star

Trek, but there can be some cross

over.Whats your favorite pastime?

My favorite pastime would have

to be hanging out with friends,

reading a book, playing music, and

wood carving, along with many

other things. I also love dancing. I do

American-style Irish clogging, swing

dancing, contra dancing, waltzes,

and I used to take tap, but I havent

done tap in many years. I have a lot

of hobbies I do for fun.

Geek Weekof

the ...Andrew Bosela, Senior: Petroleum Engineering, Geology minor

Joshua Kleitsch

Staff Writer

What kinds of things have you

carved out of wood?

Fish, bears, castles, human fac-

es, pretty much anything you can

think of, I would carve it. I think Ive

even carved an angel.

Why did you choose petro-leum?

It was the last thing I thought I

would choose when I came to this

school, but Im really interested in

geothermal energy, and I talked to a

few Icelandic gentlemen that said if I

wanted do anything with geothermal

engineering, I would need to be a

petroleum major, so here I am. I also

really like rocks.

Are you for Star Wars or Star

Trek?

Star Trek. My favorite series

would have to be the original series

with Kirk and Mr. Spock.What made you come to

Mines?

Number one, I like the applica-

tion process; number two, they havea really good nancial aid package;

number three, they have mountains

and snow; and number four, the

people I met when I visited campus

were really my type of people. One

guy I talked to just started talking

about random scientic stuff, and I

realized I would t in here really well.

If you could have any super

power, what would it be?

To y. That way, I wouldnt be lim-

ited to ground travel, and

I could just take off and

go places, land for some

food, and keep going. I

could circumnavigate the

globe.

If you could changeany one thing about

Mines, what would it

be?

Besides the ratio, I

would have more on-

campus housing, just to

have more people around,

a closer community. More

school spirit. The only

time we really act like a

school is over E-Days.

Just that excitement, the

community.

If you could make

a new class here at

Mines, what would it

be?

I would want to make

something completelyrandom, completely op-

posite to science. Proba-

bly something like hairstyle

engineering, totally not like

Mines at all. I would never

take this class, though.

Another fun one would be

advanced logging tech-

niques, like how to take

down a tree in one strike,

that would be great.JOSHUA KLEITSCH / OREDIGGER

As the year continues, someof us are getting tired of going tothe same old places time and timeagain. So why not bring out theRTD bus passes that Mines stu-dents all get for free. This week,

there are four more locations to ndsome entertainment.

Hit up the Butterfy Pavilion

Looking for an outdoor experi-ence indoors? Are you intrigued bycreepy-crawlers, but prefer to haveglass between you and them?

Then your destination might just bethe Buttery Pavilion - a non-protinvertebrate zoo. You can walkthrough the garden to see over1200 free ying butteries. Afteryouve got your ll of apping, youcan head on over to the watersedge to touch a sea star and checkout a few other oceanic creatures.Finally, you can wrap up your ad-venture at the Crawl-a-See-Emwhere you can see some even

creepier crawlies than ever andperhaps even hold Rosie the Taran-tula, if you are lucky. The pavilion isopen year-round.

Play at Dave and Busters

Grab your friends (or at leastthe ones with free bus passes) andhead on over to D&Bs for somegrub, drinks, and healthy compe-tition. Let your inner child lose inthe arcade, challenge your friend toskee ball, or even bet on a horsederby. Not into arcade games? No

worries - play some shufe boardand then nish up the evening offun with a relaxing game of pool.D&B is open 7 days a week and isalways changing up their promo-tions to keep it fresh and to keepyou coming back.

Take in the Denver Art Museum

There is something for every

interest at this museum, whichfeatures art from all over the world.Exhibits change frequently, but thecurrent must-see exhibit is Tut-ankhamen: The Golden King & theGreat Pharaohs. Check out www.denverartmuseum.org to nd thelatest tour information and exhibitsthat the museum is offering.

Play in the [City] Park

Are you sick of studying in thelibrary? Trying to keep the Fresh-man 15 at bay? Need a uniquedate idea? City park has just whatyou need for all of these issues andeven more. Find a peaceful spotto read beneath one of the manytrees in this 320 acre park. Or per-haps you would like to watch the

ducks play in Duck Lake. You canalways take a study break and walkthrough one of the many owergardens to clear your mind orcheck out the historic buildings lo-cated throughout the park. If beingactive sounds better, bring alonga friend and play some catch, ya kite, or swing at the playground.Make a day date and rent a paddleboat from the boathouse. No mat-ter what your mood is, City Parkhas everything you need.

Stout was rst brewed during

the Industrial Revolution in Eng-land and Ireland as a high-alcoholvariety of porter. Guinness domi-nates the scene today, but moreand more craft breweries are cre-ating their own take on this blackand potent brew.

Imperial stout, so called be-cause it was a favorite of the Rus-sian czars, is an even more alco-holic version and in many wayscan be called a barleywine. Nota-ble examples include Gonzo fromFlying Dog and Ten FIDY from Os-kar Blues.

With an opaque black colorand creamy brown foam, GoldenCitys Cuve Imperial Stout looks

like a strong shot of espresso,and at 9% alcohol, it is no lesspotent. An 8-ounce glass will setyou back $5, or you can opt for

a smaller glass as part of the $7sampler plate. Cuve is set apartfrom other imperial stouts by ag-ing it in old oak whiskey barrelsfor nine months. This really shinesthrough with a pungent whiskeyscent along with traces of oatsand raspberry.

The avor is similarly dominat-ed by whiskey, with hints of vanillaand cherry. Other barrel-aged bar-leywines such as Palo Santo Mar-rn from Dogsh Head also exhibitsimilar fruit and spice notes. Alsopresent are a tannin bitternessfrom the oak reminiscent of dryred wine and taste of dark bakerschocolate from the roasted malt.

It is not overly sweet, but with allthe complex avors present it can-not be called well-balanced either.Hop bitterness is slight, but no-

ticeable, while oats add smooth-ness and body.

A unique and special beer, Cu-ve is worth a try if you already likestouts, strong beers, barleywines,or barrel-aged beer; or if youresimply feeling adventurous. It isnot something I would drink everyday, but rather save for special oc-casions. I have had better impe-rial stouts and better wood-agedbeer, but never in this unique com-bination. I give it an A- overall: notthe best, but darn good.

Somewhere between shoe-gaze and surf sits Candy Claws, aFort Collins dream-pop band thathas garnered national attentionwith their recent summer tour andnewest record Hidden Lands.

Similar to the groups previousrecord In the Dream of the SeaLife, the new disc was inspired, inpart, by a book: Richard M. Ket-chums The Secret Life of the For-est. I used the phrase in part,because the bands own personalexperiences living on the cusp of

the Rocky Mountains also had arole to play in inspiring a record fullof nature-inspired ambient dream-scapes and ethereal melody.

Hidden Lands is one of thoserecords that can be approached intwo ways: active listening or pas-sive enjoyment. Even after listen-ing to this album 10 or 11 timeseach experience has been differ-ent.

Bowling may not be associ-ated with fun in the mind

of the average collegestudent, but perhaps itshould be at the Colo-rado School of Mines.Mines students are luckyenough to be situatedonly a mile away fromGolden Bowl, a classicbowling alley located at525 24th Street.

Golden Bowl, found-ed in 1952 (as reectedby the historic exteriorsigns), was fully reno-vated four years ago bythen-owner and Chi-nese immigrant Thomas

Yang. Mr. Yang alsoadded a full Chinese

restaurant to the facil-ity. In 2009, he soldGolden Bowl to Mikeand Cindy Keily, whoboth have extensive ex-perience with amateurand professional bowl-ing. They converted theChinese restaurant intoa diner serving American, Italianand even a little Mexican food andrenamed it Roses Diner, in honorof a deceased relative. In addition

to the restaurant, Golden Bowl hasa snack bar and a tavern in thebowling area as well. As a testa-ment to its bowling facilities, next

month Golden Bowl will be hostingthe Professional Bowlers Asso-ciations Southwest Region GoldenBowl Challenge.

Fortunately for the cost-con-scious among us, the Golden Bowlis affordable. Prices range from$0.50 to $3.50 for a game ($7.00

to $12 for a pass) and from

free to $2.75 for shoes de-pending upon the day ofthe week, time of day, andexact offer used. Prob-ably the best combineddeal occurs Monday andWednesday from 9 PMuntil 12 AM when bowlingis $1 per game and shoerental is $1 as well. En-tres at Roses Diner arereasonable as well, rang-ing from $3.25 for just ahamburger to $14.00 fora 12-inch pizza. Appetiz-ers range from $2.00 for apretzel to $7.00 for a vari-ety basket of munchies. Itried a 7-inch pizza and it

was excellent, with a veryhomemade taste.

Of course, one couldnot spotlight a bowling al-ley without actually playinga game. I proudly bowledabout a 35. Not surpris-ingly, I lost to my compa-triot. More surprisingly, he

only bowled a 50! We enjoyed our-selves immensely, proving anyonecan have fun at timeless GoldenBowl, regardless of bowling talent.

Afterlife, the movie picks upright after Alice left Nevada in theprevious movie, Resident Evil:Extinction. Assisted by Claireand Chris Redeld, Alice search-es for Arcadia, a place where theinfection is rumored to not exist.

Though any true fan of theResident Evil franchise will en-

To say the least,if you have not seen any of theother three movies, especiallyResident Evil: Extinction, do notsee this movie. Featuring charac-ters from the video game Resi-dent Evil 5, the movie begins and

ends many stories in the shortone hour and thirty minute movielength.

Although the movie is fun and

enjoyable to watch, by the endof the movie one may ask them-selves, What just happened?

At the end of the movie, the factis this: nothing happens. It doesanswer a few questions here and

there, but most of that informa-tion can be obtained from anyspoiler on the Internet. By the endof the movie, it is apparent thatthere are sure to be at least twomore Resident Evil movies tobe released to the public, depen-dant on if this current ResidentEvil movie makes enough moneyin the box-ofces to move thoselms to the big screen. If previ-ous numbers mean anything, thismovie is predicted to gross aboutfty million dollars, but if this num-ber is not reached the chances offuture movies become slim.

So if you want some fun at themovies on a weekend and are notworried about the cost of a movieticket, go see Resident Evil: Af-terlife. Just remember, if a movieis fun to watch, it does not meanthat it is a good movie.

At first listen, The RightPlace To Be EP by AdventureGalley is surprisingly profes-sional for a debut album of arelatively unknown band. Aftera few listens it is not surprisingthat Adventure Galley won therecent Toyota Music Rock TheSpace 2 contest. The albumbegins with a soulful preludethat sets the scene for the restof the album; of course every-thing only gets better from here.

This leads right into Knife In The Sail, a song that is sureto find you tapping your footalong with the jazzy beat. Asyou fall deeper into the CD, youwill find yourself in amazementthat such a great debut albumis even possible.

The focus of the album is thefourth track, Addict. This songwas the song that was featured

in the contest, and having beenthe best of several thousandsubmissions, it is clear that ifyou listen to anything, listento this song. Personally, I have

played this song for friends andhad them guess the band. Mostthink it is a lost Killers mas-terpiece and are delightfullyshocked to know they are lis-tening to something that is new.

All in all, the album is thebest debut album I have everheard. While some of the tim-ing can be off in locations, andsome musical transitions are abit contrived, after a few listensthese become part of the char-acter of the album and serve asa reminder that all bands startoff in a similar manner. For thetime being, the album has notreceived a large release, butby searching Adventure Galleyon MySpace, you can listen tosome of the songs and, at leastfor the present, you can pur-chase the album for the amaz-ing price of $1.00. Hopefully

Adventure Galley can rise abovetheir roots with their new re-cording contract with MySpace

Music, and if everything goesright, I hope to be hearing theirgritty, Killers-esque style formany years to come. If not therewill always be this great EP.

While sitting in Slate thinking about what question I wanted to ask

people, someone really irritated me. My blood was pumping and after

analyzing the situation, it dawned on me. I wanted to know what grinds

peoples gears. Everyone has something that ticks them off. Whether it is

road rage from the grandpa driving the Buick or Betas in the gym, there

is something that ticks off everyone. So I ask, what grinds your gears?

Colorado drivers cannot drive. People al-most hit the front of my car when they switch

lanes and the speed limit is too low.

Morals to your story

ALL PHOTOS BRIAN WALLACE LINDSADT / OREDIGGER

Dilemma:

My friend continuously talks to me about problems with her mom. My mom died of cancer when I was

younger and it makes me very uncomfortable to hear her complain about her mother. Should I continue listen-

ing to her talk about her issues while putting myself through stress or tell her to talk to someone else about it?

--Listener Under Stress

Responses:

Although I cannot relate directly to your situation, I have a friend who died of cancer a few years ago, and I

understand that it is hard to hear someone complain about a person in his or her life who reminds you of some-

one you lost in yours. In my opinion, you should explain your feelings to your friend. Be honest and open about

it; tell your friend that even though you want to help her with her problems, it makes you uncomfortable in this

situation because you cannot relate to her and even possibly envy her for the relationship she has with her mom.

If you are honest and make your friend understand your side of the story, chances are she will realize that she

should talk to someone else about her problems with her mom without you even having to ask.

--Empathizer

I think the reasonable thing to do is to inform your friend that you lost your mother. As a result, your friend may

come to appreciate her mother more and you will feel less awkward when the topic is brought up. In a utilitarian

sense, this would maximize happiness by relieving your stress and helping your friend realize how fortunate she

is to have her mother in her l ife.

--Andrew Pierce

I feel that the best thing to do in your situation would be to tell your friend that listening to her complain about

her mother is stressful to you. This would be the right thing to do for two reasons. First of all, i ts not fair to you to

be getting stressed every time you talk to your friend. Secondly, it isnt honest to pretend like everything is okay

when it isnt. Both of these reasons can be viewed from two different ethical views.

The rst reason, that its not fair to you to listen to your friend complain about her mom, aligns with utilitarian-

ism in a minimal form. This is because you are decreasing your happiness by not saying anything, and if you

say something to your friend about how you are affected by having lost your mom, your happiness will likely

increase. Additionally, your friends happiness could increase if she understands you better and feels like you

trust her enough to conde in her.

The second reason, that its not honest to pretend youre ne when you arent, represents a value of Kantian

ethics. This is because honesty is of supreme importance in Kantian ethics, and by not telling your friend how

you feel, you are, in essence, lying to her. The best thing to do is to tell your friend how you feel. This is the mor-

ally right thing to do by both utilitarian and Kantian ethical views.--Nathan Fisk

Hey everybody, back for

more, I see? Last semester I took

PHGN100. It is a hard class, but

not impossible. CAPA hurt, but in

the end the exams hurt more. The

week after the third exam, a cheat-

ing ring was discovered in Physics

1 involving several students with

some estimates as high as 40 total

involved. When this was announcedin class, I was like, whatever, those

people will eventually fail so throw

them out. I thought this wouldnt

affect me. Then, our lovely Physics

department heads decided to jack

up the lives of every single student

on campus by placing all these new

restrictions on what youre allowed

to do in the exam rooms them-

selves.

Because of this cheating ring,

you are no longer allowed to have

a watch, even an analog one, in

the exam room with you. Appar-

ently, resourceful Mines students

have gured out how to cheat using

an analog watch attached to their

wrist in plain sight of every single

person in the room. Wow, we reallyare smart. Now, not being allowed

to keep your phone with you is

one thing, but saying you cant use

your 5-year-old TI-30XA calculator?

Come on, thats less advanced than

the calculators provided. Perhaps

the funniest thing that happened to

me personally was when I took the

nal. I walked up to the front of the

exam room and asked if I needed to

turn in my car keys. I was thinking

that they would just say no, you can

keep those, no big deal. Silly me.

Yeah, you have to check your car

keys; those are very suspicious, Im

pretty sure you could gure out how

to cheat with just a set of keys.

Now, this is not to say that pre-

cautions shouldnt

be taken to eliminate

cheating, but it gets

to the point of justbeing absurd. I real-

ize that cheating is a

big problem, but tell-

ing people they cant

have their wrist-

watch because they

can use it to cheat is

ridiculous.

The worst part,

however, is not that I

couldnt use my favorite old calcula-

tor that I know better than the back

of my hand. What bothered me the

most is that instead of just making

sure you couldnt cheat, they made

the exam so much more difcult

than the midterms that it didnt mat-

ter if you had cheated and gotten

90s before, it would sink your gradeso far that you would be in the same

position anyway. Many of my upper-

classmen friends last year had said

that the nal was much easier than

the midterms, so much so that one

friend raised their overall grade from

a B to an A with just the nal. Need-

less to say, I was excited by this,

because I really wanted to keep my

B, and I thought that maybe I could

do that now. Thanks to those stupid

cheaters and our wonderful Physics

1 professors, I ended up with a C

overall because I had to guess on 8

out of 30 problems. Ive never seen

an exam that difcult in my life, it

was ve times as difcult as the rst

Physics 2 exam!

I would like to

send a message to

the students that

were involved inthe cheating ring

in Physics 1 last

semester: I hope

you get caught and

thrown out of this

school, and never

allowed to return.

Some of us work re-

ally hard to get the

grades we deserve.

If youre smart enough to organize a

40-person cheating ring or program

your wrist watch with answers, you

should not be cheating on a test to

begin with. Thanks for listening, and

until next time, this has been your

friendly neighborhood POed Mines

student.

From Friday September 10 toSaturday September 11, I had theprivilege of attending a wonderfulretreat put on by the AssociatedStudents of the Colorado Schoolof Mines (ASCSM). We drove tobeautiful Breckenridge, Colorado,spending almost 24 hours framingthe direction for ASCSM this year.

This retreat was meant to serve asa team-building and planning op-portunity, a purpose that I believeit served admirably. The concern-ing piece of this trip is that it wasfunded entirely by a school fee.

I should mention that I am avoting member of the ASCSMSenate, hence my attendance atthis retreat, so I, too, should taketo heart the criticisms that follow.

Every student pays $83.70each semester for the Associ-ated Students Fee. The ASCSMBudget Committee distributes the

money from this fee each year. Ap-proximately $700,000 is parceled

out amongst the nearly 150 differ-ent clubs on campus. The actualallocations are posted outside the

ASCSM ofce, in the back of theStudent Activities ofce, if you arecurious.

The allocations process is asource of heartache for as many

as 500 students each semester,as they try to secure funding fortheir clubs myriad activities. Thereare many complaints that can beand are leveled at the budget al-location process. I would ratherleave those for another time andinstead aim my criticism at ASC-SM as a whole.

My concern is that ASCSMtakes the stance that the moneygathered through the AssociatedStudents fee belongs to ASCSM.

ASCSM does distribute all butperhaps $32,000 to the otherclubs on campus, but the rulesthat govern club usage of moneydo not seem to apply to ASCSM.

In an effort to remove the veil

from the budget allocation pro-cess, the ASCSM Budget Com-

mittee did try to codify the circum-stances under which they wouldfund organizations. This spring,the rules were that ASCSM wouldpay for half of all conference andcompetition costs. Food costswould only be funded if the foodwas provided at a well-publicized

event open to the entire campus.Those two rules constituted mostof the funding cuts that ASCSMissued last year.

What qualies as a conference,then? Could we not count the

ASCSM retreat as a conference?We traveled somewhere to listento people talk and make sure thatwe were working towards thelong-term aims of the organiza-tion. Sure, we did not have thechance to meet with others in-terested in our area of work, butdoes that additional experiencereally warrant a budget cut?

What about the food pur-chased during this retreat? Theretreat was not open to all of cam-

pus. Granted, ASCSM did adda retreat exemption to their food

dictate. The exemption was usedto the benet of one club and

ASCSM, if memory serves. Otherscalled their event a club meetinginstead of a leadership bondingexperience and had that fundingcut entirely.

On the topic of free food, each

class generally puts on one or twofree food events each year. Theseevents are not open to all of cam-pus, 1/4 at best, and some arenot well publicized. Yet they arefunded without a second thought.

ASCSM gave itself money tosubsidize the purchase of Stet-sons by the Senior Class. All theother organizations on campuswould be told that purchases muststay with the club; money cannotbe used for personal purchases.

Yes, Senior Stetson is a tradition,one in which I intend to partake;does that make it different? If theJudo Club established a traditionsuch as this, should they also befunded?

Another idea that has beenbroached which bothers me is to

provide T-shirts for all of the cur-rent Senate and Executive Councilmembers, free of charge. Manyclub presidents and treasurersmay recognize this as somethingthat they were expressly forbiddento do. It is my understanding thatthe rule regarding T-shirts is not

actually an ASCSM rule, but a ruleput in place by some other part ofthe school administration. Howev-er, if ASCSM is able to get aroundthis rule, will they be assisting allthe clubs in the same end-run?

The question to which all ofthese concerns naturally lead isWhat makes ASCSM different?What is the difference between allstudents in congress and somestudents in congress? This is aquestion that ASCSM should askitself, but every student shouldask themselves the same ques-tion. How do we logically con-tinue subsidizing great traditionssuch as Senior Stetson, while stillsupporting and encouraging the

clubs that help to make the schoolgreat?

Whats the difference?

Mines ofcially announced thecompletion of Phase I of the newresidence hive last Friday. The fu-turistic living structure will be con-veniently located between GreenCenter and the CTLM and is ex-pected to drastically increase thenumber of students that can liveon-campus. In addition, since it willbe encased in thick concrete andhoused underground, the earth will

provide natural insulation to the liv-ing units inside, reducing the needfor heating and cooling systems.Project leaders hope the struc-ture will serve as a symbol of theColorado School of Miness com-mitment to innovation and conser-vation.

Beyond that, as hive project

head Brian Govern said, Itll alsolook really, really awesome. Thedesign of the residence hive is afusion of actual beehives and thecapsule hotels popular in Japan.

The hive will feature over 900 hex-agonal sleeping units, or cells.Each cell will contain a bed, em-bedded light, wired internet ac-cess, an assortment of accesso-ries such as shelves, and will havean 8-foot ceiling.

The pit containing the livingunits will plunge about 100 feet

into the ground, allowing studentsquick access to basement oor ofChauvenet Hall. The sleeping unitswill line the walls of the pit, with cat-walks to a large central hub con-taining bathrooms, laundry areas,greenhouses, and a playground.

The playground will also providequick access to the lower areas of

the hive via a large spiral slide.Cells in the hive will be offered

to students at a monthly rate of$400 plus a mandatory mealplan with up to two residentsallowed per cell. In an uncharac-teristic move, upperclassmen willbe allowed priority over freshmen.

The waiting list has already beenstarted, though Govern cautionedthat the project may go past itsexpected completion date due tothe custom solar panels that willbe mounted on the hub. To put it

bluntly, Govern said, we requiremore minerals before we can goforward with the panels. But hey,thats the price we pay for cutting-edge design and to think we wereoriginally planning to put a boringold petroleum engineering buildingthere! Good thing our reputation forinnovation is more than just talk.
