For most students, gradu-ation is a far-off date, seem-ingly years in the future.

But for the seasoned stu-dents who make it through the tedious homework and rigorous studying, the time has come.

Saturday, about 2,900 Oklahoma State students will attend commencement to get their diplomas, and for most of them, it will be the end of their time as a student and the beginning of their lives as professionals.

Students of the Spears School of Business and the College of Agricultural Sci-ences and Natural Resources will walk across the stage 9:30 a.m. at Gallagher-Iba Arena.

The members of the College

of Education and the College of Arts and Sciences are next to go at 1 p.m., and the last to finish their OSU careers hail from the College of Human Sciences and the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology at 4:30.

Derek Ridenour, an entre-preneurship senior, said he can hardly believe the degree he has worked on for four years is only three days away. Ridenour said he will not only look back on his time at OSU as an educational experience but also where he found his niche in life.

“I made a lot of good friends while I was here,” Ridenour said. “I never really had a super-close friend group back in high school, so I came here having a close friend group, seeing them all the time, spending a lot of time togeth-er. It was really nice.”

Isabella Simerson, a strate-gic communications senior, said she feels as if the gradu-ation ceremony is the cul-mination of her time at OSU “rolled into one piece of pa-per.” Simerson said graduation

will be a gratifying moment, but like Ridenour, she said she will remember the college environment the most out of her memories on campus.

“Being here all the time with your friends, you’re kind of like in this bubble,” Simer-son said. “There’s kind of that carefree atmosphere I’m going to miss.”

For Alec McDaniel, an ar-chitectural engineering senior, it will be a whole slew of things he will remember from his time on campus.

McDaniel said he will remember late nights working on projects in the architecture studio and rushing the field after the Cowboys beat OU to win the Big 12 title his fresh-man year.

McDaniel said the moment he gets his diploma will mean a lot of things, but among them he said he will feel like a part of the OSU family, some-thing that meant a lot to him growing up.

“I’ve been here for five years and coming from a family with extremely low income, receiving that diploma has

been something I’ve dreamed of for a very long time,” Mc-Daniel said. “I never thought that I would get to this mo-ment. That moment I will finally have proven to myself that I can make it.”

Although three days of finals stand between the seniors and their walk across the stage in caps and gowns, they are not something that can stop them. After all, they’re experts at

this point.“You know two or three

years ago, this week would have been absolute hell,” McDaniel said. “You never thought you were going to survive, but this last week feels like I’ve done this nine times before. I can do it one more time.”

If you’re a student at Okla-homa State and you violate the student code of conduct, you could end up defend-ing yourself in a mysterious investigative process.

When a student is accused of violating the student code of conduct, he or she goes through the student conduct process.

The Student Conduct Education and Administra-tion office has documented 652 instances of prohib-ited conduct in the 2015-16 academic year, according to university records.

Lee Bird, the vice presi-dent of Student Affairs, said most cases that end up in student conduct are infor-mal meetings for drug and alcohol violations.

This academic year, OSU student conduct recorded 398 alcohol-related viola-tions and 111 drug-related violations as of April 23, ac-cording to university records.

Most students admit responsibility if they are accused of an offense, Bird said.

“Most of the time I think students are pretty honest about what they did,” Bird said. “If students are pretty honest about that, I think we’re pretty fair in terms of

the sanctions.”Once a complaint is filed

against a student and it is determined a student code violation might have oc-curred, the student is notified in writing of the alleged violations against him or her.

There are three categories of meetings within student conduct. Student conduct meetings are where most cases are handled. At the meeting, no type of suspen-sion or expulsion is possible, and students meet one on one with a conduct officer.

“Unless it’s a very serious case and/or a student opts for a hearing, it’s generally done by a single administrative officer,” Bird said.

It is not standard practice to allow students to bring attorneys with them to meet-ings or hearings, Bird said.

However, OSU’s new student code of conduct, which was revised last sum-mer, allows students to bring attorneys to student conduct meetings and hearings.

“I think there was a particular desire to have it for organizations,” Bird said. “That’s probably where it started, and it leaked over into individual hearings.”

The OSU A&M Board of Regents also approved a code of conduct for student organizations last summer.

Aleigha Mariott, coor-dinator of student conduct,

said in an email that while making revisions to the student code of conduct, it was decided that creating a separate code of conduct for student organizations “would better fit the needs of the student organizations.”

Stillwater attorney Cheryl

Ramsey said she represents about 10 to 15 clients in student conduct each year in informal meetings, com-pared to two to three hearing panel hearings, she said.

1984, said her job is mainly to direct students on what to say, make them feel more at ease and ensure they stay in school.

“The client is much more comfortable knowing I’m there, whether I’m really doing anything or not, to write them notes, that kind of thing,” Ramsey said.

In more serious cases, a panel of three disinter-ested members — a faculty member, staff member and a student — hears the case and makes a decision about whether the student “more likely than not” committed the offense.

Students who volunteer to serve on the board go through 40 to 50 hours of training before they hear a case, Bird said. The train-

ing covers sexual violence, hazing, the student code of conduct and due process, among other topics. OSU also checks the academic standing of students who volunteer to be on the con-duct board, she said.

About 40 people are trained and a panel is drawn from the pool of trainees, Bird said.

Student conduct hearings are different from court proceedings in standards of proof and an attorney’s role.

Students, especially in an informal student conduct meeting, are typically presumed to be guilty of something, Ramsey said.

“But the point of OSU student conduct is to make sure if (students) are going down the wrong path, we

need to straighten them out now,” she said. “And the situation where there is a hearing, the proof is so different than beyond a rea-sonable doubt, it’s almost nothing.

“So it’s kind of like a preliminary hearing situa-tion from the standpoint of, all you have to do is prove a crime was committed and they probably committed that crime, and that’s it.”

Attorneys are more involved in court cases in terms of being able to speak on behalf of their client. In a hearing panel hearing, the client does most of the talking, Ramsey said. However, she said she is able to prepare students before the hear-ing, and during the hearing she can write them notes

or make quiet comments to direct them.

Despite the differences between the student con-duct and court processes, Ramsey said she believes students are given fair due process rights.

“In all these years, I haven’t seen that it’s been off the charts type thing,” Ramsey said. “And I’ve had kids that have been kicked out of school, obviously, too. But those are really se-rious situations, and some I agreed with and some I didn’t.”

Sanctions for offenses can include a variety of op-tions from written warnings to residence hall changes to expulsion.

Bird said in some cases, the sanctions mirror the offense the student com-

mitted.“In some cases, if people

have vandalized something, they may also be asked to clean something up,” Bird said.

If it is found that a stu-dent more likely than not committed a more serious offense such as a physi-cal or sexual assault, he or she could be suspended or expelled, Bird said.

“Often times, it’s just kind of a screw up,” Bird said. “You did something, you feel badly about what you did, you acknowledge what you did and to the extent that students do that, unless it’s a serious case, generally it’s going to be something less than a sus-pension or expulsion.”

If student conduct finds it more likely than not that

a student committed an offense, a note may be put on the student’s transcript, Bird said.

Bird has the power to give a lesser sanction, in-validate a previous sanction or return a recommended sanction to a hearing panel for review, according to the student code of conduct.

In more serious cases, Bird said both parties have the right to appeal; how-ever, appeals aren’t usually available for sanctions such as a warning or probation.

Bird said she also has the ability to allow a case to be heard after the 180-day suggested reporting time frame in the code of con-duct has passed.

When he was 6, Benny Miller peeked his head into the cockpit of a commercial airplane and saw buttons, dials and his future as a pilot.

“To me, there’s nothing more rewarding than be-ing that person to another

child,” Miller said. “I want to be the person the child looks into the cockpit and sees.”

Rachel Earnhardt watched her father fly as a commercial pilot, Miles Turner developed a love of international traveling, Harrison Stegmann was fascinated with airplanes as a child and Max Ma-roney saw “Top Gun.”

The members of the Oklahoma State Univer-sity flight team, a subdivi-sion of the Flying Aggies aviation club, discovered their passion for flying airplanes in different

ways.The team won the Na-

tional Intercollegiate Fly-ing Association regional competition for the second year in a row last fall, qualifying for the national competition, SAFECON. Rick Gladden, the OSU flight team coach, said this is his eighth trip to the national competition, and it is one of the better teams he has coached.

Nine members will dress in orange flight suits to compete in multiple events at SAFECON on May 9-14 at Ohio State University in Columbus.

The National Intercol-legiate Flying Associa-tional national competi-tion consists of 30 teams bringing airplanes to compete in a variety of aviation-oriented events, said Maroney, the captain. The events span across flying, navigation, general knowledge of aviation and precision landings, said Miller, a co-captain.

Each member will com-pete in the event for which he or she is selected, said Miller, a professional pilot sophomore.

The OSU flight team spends the semester

preparing for the com-petition, said Maroney, a mechanical and aerospace engineering sophomore.

The pilots are dedicated and spend hundreds of dollars and many hours

training to hone their skills, Gladden said.

To prepare for OSU flight team tryouts, the group pays for aircraft rentals, said Garrett Quin-by, the president of the Flying Aggies. Members receive a discounted rate on aircraft rental of $50 per hour, Quinby said.

The OSU flight team pays for its members’ aircraft rentals, said Earn-hardt, the only female pilot from OSU compet-ing at nationals.

Earnhardt, a profes-sional pilot junior, said the team doesn’t think of practicing as a chore.

“It’s just this feeling of being super independent,”

Earnhardt said. “You’re thousands of feet above the ground, and you’re in a plane by yourself. It’s just kinda crazy to think about, like, ‘Wow, they trust me to do this, and this is something I’m ac-tually capable of doing.’ It’s like an adrenaline rush and a feeling I have not got anywhere else.”

The National Intercol-legiate Flying Association creates some of the best aviators for his age group in the country, Maroney said.

“We regularly hear sto-ries from people, who are in the National Intercol-legiate Flying Associa-tion or who have left the National Intercollegiate

Flying Association, of emergency situations that have come up, failed en-gines, malfunction of the flight controls,” Maroney said. “Because of their experience at NIFA, they were able to manage the situation and get out OK with them and their pas-sengers.”

Gladden said he received a text message from last year’s OSU flight team captain, Michael Parisi. He gets choked up when he reads it, Gladden said.

“I don’t know if you’ve heard, but I had an engine failure yesterday in a Bonanza and landed on a road with no injuries,” the text read. “I attribute

most of this success to flight team practice and things that you taught me. I just wanted to say thank you.”

Gladden coached the OSU flight team in the 1970s and took a break, returning three years ago, Gladden said. In the past, the team members have not worked cohesively, so Gladden made it his goal to bring them closer.

“The friendships they make are gonna stay with them the rest of their life,” Gladden said. “I’ve still got friends that were students of mine from back in the early ‘70s.”

Stegmann, a mechani-cal engineering fresh-man, said the team is like

family.“This group of pilots

who are on flight team with me, they’re my best friends now,” Stegmann said. “I don’t know what I would do if I wasn’t hanging out with them. … We’re all really close. We do everything to-gether.”

With as much time as they spend together, Stegmann said the team members constantly com-pete against one another.

“It’s all for fun because we want to support each other, but, at the same time, we all want to be the best pilot just for the bragging rights,” Steg-mann said. “We all want each other to do really

well. Because we ulti-mately, as a team, want to win the competition, not just individuals.”

When Stegmann is in the competition, it’s simi-lar to muscle memory; he falls back on his training and executes it, he said.

Turner, a professional pilot junior, said nerves aren’t an issue.

“The second you’re in the plane and the engine’s running and you’re flying, it’s just you’re back to your old ways,” Turner said. “You forget about that it’s a competition, and you’re just flying the plane.”

Dozens of perfectly squared-away aisles line Eddie Sutton Court.

Hundreds of students sit in their seats dressed in black caps and gowns. Thousands more wait in the corridors of Galla-gher-Iba Arena. Their

friends, professors and parents, most of them, are crammed inside the 13,611-capacity arena, waiting hours, all for about 10 seconds.

Tears are shed.Handshakes and hugs

are shared everywhere, but none come more frequent-ly than atop an elevated stage at one end of the court where the embraces with a man named Burns Hargis are coupled with a small leatherback book with no pages.

It represents a diploma. It is graduation day.

Of the thousands in the arena, a man sits among the black-laden aisles.

Others’ minds are focused on 10 seconds of valediction or the first few recollections that come to their minds from their years of college.

His is on the future. The present is only the begin-ning. The past is only what he had to overcome.

He could easily rest in peace, but instead, he chooses to rest in his seat. He could easily call himself an inmate, but he would rather call himself a graduate of Oklahoma State University.

He wasn’t supposed to be in this chair, on this stage or with this diploma.

He wasn’t supposed to

be at all.But his scars have

mended.He has spent nights in

gas station bathrooms. He has popped pistols. He and his siblings have overcome 1.73 trillion odds.

Mikusu Tshimanga, Jer-emiah’s father, immigrated to the U.S. when Jeremiah was 3. Mikusu sought a more fulfilling life in “the land of opportunity,” and an escape from the civil war that was ripping through the country. He filed a petition for his family to join him.

April 20, 1997, the Tshimangas loaded a plane that took them halfway across the Earth to George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston, Texas. Rev. A. Newman, a pastor at the Temple of Praise in Bedford, Texas, picked them up.

Newman drove the fam-ily northbound on I-35 to Euless, Texas, where the Tshimangas unloaded their

bags and started their life at a small apartment complex.

The children knew noth-ing that would come of it, but in the U.S., they came to understand a level of trial they never experienced in the third-world country they had just left.

Mikusu was a hard-work-ing man. He was proud, driven, like most fathers. He expected a lot from his children and checked up on their progress in school from time to time.

There wasn’t a lot of time for memories or hugs and kisses, at least from what his children remember. Jer-emiah and his sisters Embo and Bilonda were too young to recall details about their father.

But Tish, Mikusu’s old-

est, remembers a passionate man who had a dark side.

It was nothing too com-mon to hear Mikusu and Jeremiah’s mother, Chantal Akir, fight.

One night it turned physi-cal, though.

That night at the apart-ment in Euless, after three years in America, Chantal took the children and left for a shelter, helpless in a country where they didn’t know the language. When Mikusu left, he left Jeremi-ah with a scar on his life.

Mikusu never recon-nected with his wife, who spiraled through depression and inability to adapt to the American system after the fight. Mikusu burned the papers that documented the Tshimangas’ move to

America was legal, but Catholic charities in the area are working to rereg-ister the family almost 20 years later.

Mikusu tried to take Jeremiah and Tish back out of the country one night while Chantal was at work, asking his sons to load into his car and leave for Africa. Tish opened the door to the house for Jeremiah to go back inside. Mikusu tried to grab Tish.

The police came, and Tish got out of the house. It was the last time anyone in the family saw Mikusu.

His name remains unknown to Embo, uninter-ested in knowing it. It’s a name that is rarely men-tioned within the family.

Chantal and her chil-

dren were stranded. There was no going back to the mansion, the success, the normalcy. Their lives began to topple.

“It wasn’t all smiles back then,” Jeremiah said.

The family stayed at 2136 San Fernando St. in Bedford, Texas, for a year before moving to Hurst, the next city over where the family was evicted soon thereafter. From Hurst, they went to the Arlington Life Shelter, then a shelter in Dallas.

Months later, the family was at 1855 E. Lancaster Ave. near the heart of downtown Fort Worth, Texas.

It wasn’t home. It was a Salvation Army.

About 15 yards west, the

Great Western Inn gleamed, seen but unreachable.

To the east of the shelter, the five Tshimangas instead slept in the parking lot inside their compact Toyota Corolla, squishing together on the floorboards and against the windows.

Sitting in the front seats was their luxury, far re-moved from the intricacies of the Congolese manor in Kinshasa.

Three light poles il-luminated the cement grid at night.

That was home.Their bathroom: a

7-Eleven farther west from the inn.
