Questions from students,

faculty and attendees were


addressed at the sexual assault
panel hosted by Chancellor
Bernadette Gray-Little on
Tursday evening.
Te panel consisted of
Chancellor Bernadette Gray-
Little; Provost Jef Vitter; Jane
McQueeny, executive director
of Ofce of Institutional
Opportunity and Access;
Tammara Durham, vice
provost for student afairs;
Ralph Oliver, the University
police chief; and Nathan
Tomas, the vice provost for
diversity and equity.
Many questions focused on
the policies and procedures
concerning sexual assault
cases, which are handled by
the IOA and the Ofce of
Student Afairs. McQueeny
and Durham reiterated that
the University does not use
criminal procedures, but
instead works to ensure
that both parties are
guaranteed equal educational
opportunity.
We take disciplinary action
based on whats allowed by
the code, and the reason
those two are separate is to
ensure due process, Durham
said.
Te Chancellor also noted
that the University will work
to make the policies more
transparent.
Other questions focused on
the language becoming more
inclusive in the policies and
having a clearer defnition of
consent.
I think we defnitely
recognize that consent is
critical to all of the dialogue
we are having, McQueeny
said. Lets make it so our

Secretary of
State candidate
discusses voting
Jean Schodorf, Democratic
candidate for Kansas
secretary of state, stopped
by the University of Kansas
Young Democrats meeting
last Tursday to talk about
students involvement in the
upcoming election season.
Student voting is an
important issue to Schodorf
in this election, and she said
shes touring universities
throughout Kansas to promote
it. Her speech encouraged
students to take an active part
in their communities and
become lifelong voters. She
also encouraged students to
vote on every issue, not just
national elections.
Im talking about not just a
fall election, Schodorf said. A
spring election, a school bond
issue, a sales tax question.
Studies have shown
historically low turnout
among voters age 18 to 24, and
Schodorf said she has talked
to many students who felt like
their voice didnt matter.
Students have said that
they just didnt feel like voting
made a diference, that it didnt
afect them, she said.
However, Schodorf said
she believes students choices
directly afect them because
their representative will make
decisions concerning higher
education funding.
Brittany Bodenheimer, a
sophomore from Topeka
and president of KU Young
Democrats, said she believed
that Schodorf s speech did a
good job of demonstrating
how and why students should
be engaged in the election.
Teir vote does matter, and
they can actually make a very
big diference if they just get
involved, Bodenheimer said.
Schodorf s stop at the
University was part of her
Lifelong Voting tour,
where she has stopped at
Kansas universities including
Pittsburg State, Wichita
State, Fort Hays State, Kansas
State, Washburn and Johnson
County Community College.

STILL ON THE SHELVES
Te Lawrence Public Library
is giving out diferent Banned
Books trading cards each day
this week. Each card features
artwork from local artists and
depicts literatures that either
have been banned or have
faced possible censorship.
Te titles of this years
trading cards are:
One Flew Over the Cuckoos
Nest by Ken Kesey
Lord of the Flies by William
Golding
Little Red Riding Hood by
Charles Perrault
Maus by Art Spiegelman
To Kill a Mockingbird by
Harper Lee
Te Old Man and the Sea
by Ernest Hemingway
Harriet the Spy by Louise
Fitzhugh
Te Banned Books Trading
Cards project, now in its third
year, coincides with Banned
Books Week, a national
campaign that celebrates the
freedom to read.
I think a lot of times we fail
to realize how many things
are censored in our world,
said Jeni Daley, marketing
coordinator for the library.
But we also can fail to realize
the freedoms we have.
Daley said she thought it was
amazing that Americans have
the right to get mad and speak
out against censorship.
Library Director Brad Allen
agreed.
Tere is a high level of
control of the dissemination
of information in a massive
amount of the world, Allen
said. And its important to just
remind yourself that these are
important freedoms.
Since the project began three
years ago, the cards themselves
have become a popular
collectors item. Te library has
shipped previous years card
sets to all 50 states and most
English-speaking countries.
Allen said they have shipped
the cards as far as Australia.
Te library will begin selling
this years card sets afer the
Banned Books Week for a
small price.
Allen said they never
thought of monetizing the
project when the cards were
frst released in 2012. However,
the cards unexpected levels of
popularity soon required the
library staf to think on its feet
to develop shipping strategies
and a licensing agreement
for the local artists who had
designed the cards.
Any Douglas County resident
could submit the designs
for cards; one of this years
winning cards was designed by
a local middle school student.
Allen said the local restriction
helps showcase the artistic
talents that Lawrence has to

offer. All submissions were
reviewed by a panel of
judges, who then select the
seven top submissions as
the winning cards.
There are professors
of design at KU that have
won, local artists that do
design work on a national
scale, Allen said. Its great
to just show this range
of creativity and expose
people to local art at the
same time.
One of the chosen
designs was by senior
Katie Whiteman from
Bettendorf, Iowa. Her work
was inspired by One Flew
Over the Cuckoos Nest.
I didnt really know
what kind of competition
I was up against, but I had
gotten good feedback from
my professors, Whiteman
said. It was really
rewarding to know that it
wasnt just my teachers that
thought the design made
sense.
Whiteman used an
illustration of pills in
reference of the books
setting in a psychiatric
hospital. Other selected
designs included digital
sculptures, drawings and a
scratchboard.

students understand, so our
community understands.
One audience member
asked that the University
explicitly include that a
victims past sexual history
and state of dress not be used
against them.
I can assure you that when
we made our decision dress,
birth control those were
not determinants in whether
we found a violation or not,
McQueeny said.
Sexual assault cases
involving alcohol and
incapacitation were
discussed, as well. McQueeny
said the investigations
make the distinction
between intoxication and
incapacitation, which is when
a student is not coherent
enough to consent.
Incapacity renders you
unable to give consent because
you cant make decisions
voluntarily and knowingly,
McQueeny said. Te KU
sexual harassment policies
defne incapacitation as things
like slurred speech, inability to
have conversations, vomiting,
unsteady walking, things that
are erratic behavior.
Oliver said student safety
was the main priority and the
Universitys amnesty policy
ensures that victims wont be
punished.
Our main concern is
the health and safety of the
individual, to deal with the
incident in front of us and to
try to neutralize any suspect
out there, Oliver said.
Underage statutes take a
back seat to the more violent
crime of sexual assault.
Many audience members
asked for more comprehensive
sexual assault training and
more resources for the Emily
Taylor Center for Women
and Gender Equity to further
educate students.
Te Chancellor asked for
recommendations on how
the University can better
its policies and create an
environment where sexual
assault is not tolerated. Te
recommendations will be
discussed by the recently
formed task force, which
should meet sometime in the
upcoming month.
Im interested in creating
the kind of setting in which
we prevent [sexual assault]
and we enhance the sense of
respect and Im very much
committed to that, Gray-
Little said.

Te student section will be
more crowded than usual in
future basketball seasons due
to Kansas Athletics moving
123 student seats into fewer
sections in Allen Fieldhouse.
Kansas Athletics removed
section U from the student
section and sold it to donors
to make up for lost revenue
when Student Senate reduced
the student athletic fee from
$25 to $7.
Te seats Athletic Director
Jim Marchiony deems very
desirable for donors wont
completely recoup revenue
lost afer the student athletic
fee reduction. He says Athlet-
ics will lose $340,000 annually
due to the cut in the fee and
will only make about $179,200
back by selling the seats.
Students will still get into any
game as long as they have a
ticket, according to Associate
Marchiony. Tey will just have
to take a back seat to donors,
literally.
To ensure there are enough
seats for students, there will
be less single-game general
admission tickets sold for sec-
tions 19-21, which is where the
student section and the gener-
al admission mix.
Some students were upset
with Athletics decision to take
the section, including junior
Aaron Abeita from Hiawatha.
Abeita said he believes all of
Allen Fieldhouse will sufer.
I think its messed up, Abe-
ita said. It messes with the
atmosphere not being right on
top of the bench like that.
Abeitas brother, senior Na-
thaniel Abeita, disagrees. He
doesnt see a problem with
Athletics decision.
Its defnitely a payback
thing, but I think its justifed,
he said. Tats Athletics fex-
ing their muscle. If you are go-
ing to play with the big boys,
thats what is going to happen.
Yeah, it sucks, but if you play
with fre, youre going to get
burned.

LAWRENCE Sen. Pat
Roberts of Kansas took his
conservative re-election mes-
sage into the state's swing-vot-
ing east Saturday in his latest
efort chip away any advantage
from independent candidate
Greg Orman in a U.S. Senate
race that has unexpectedly
become one of the most hotly
contested in the nation.
Roberts strolled the grassy
hill to the south of Memorial
Stadium before the University
of Kansas football game, pop-
ping in and out of pregame
party tents and chatting with
voters in the Democratic-lean-
ing city.
His message was distinctly
partisan. With less than six
weeks to go and facing a politi-
cal newcomer who has tried to
cast himself as non-partisan,
Roberts stuck to his argument
that the election is a refer-
endum on President Barack
Obama and the Democrat-
ic-controlled Senate.
"Tat really is the issue:
whether (Senate Majority
Leader) Harry Reid continues
to be a one-man rules commit-
tee in the Senate," Roberts told
Te Associated Press. "Tey
also know Orman is a liberal
Democrat and a vote for Harry
Reid. Tat really is the issue."
Republicans need a net gain
of six seats to take the Senate
majority from Democrats, and
Kansas is one of about a dozen
races nationally that could de-
termine the outcome.
Until just this month, Rob-
erts, a 78-year-old conserva-
tive from GOP-heavy west-
ern Kansas, was not viewed
as vulnerable. Republicans
have held every Senate seat in
Kansas since 1938. But Dem-
ocratic nominee Chad Taylor,
under pressure from national
Democrats, announced Sept.
3 that he would drop out of
the race. Te move was viewed
as an efort to improve the
odds of Orman, a 45-year-old
wealthy businessman from the
populous Kansas City suburbs,
beating Roberts.
Secretary of State Kris Ko-
bach, a Republican and strong
Roberts supporter, had refused
to remove Taylor's name from
the ballot, saying the Dem-
ocrat's didn't comply with a
law limiting withdrawals. But
the state Supreme Court ruled
Tursday that he did.
Kobach said Friday that he
would begin sending out over-
seas ballots without a Dem-
ocrat listed, efectively mak-
ing the contest a two-person
race, though Kobach said he's
not abandoning eforts to get
Democrats to name a replace-
ment. Another candidate, lib-
ertarian Randall Batson, is also
running.
Recent opinion polls have
suggested Roberts may be vul-
nerable in a head-to-head race
with Orman.
Roberts, wearing a U.S. Ma-
rines cap and striped oxford
shirt, found some supporters
among the Jayhawks fans Sat-
urday.
Paul Bahnmaier, a longtime
supporter, recalled how Rob-
erts keep open the Post Ofce
in Lecompton, just west of
Lawrence.
Nearby, Jim Setter of Over-
land Park, described himself
as a Republican more than
a Roberts supporter. "I don't
care who it is. Whether it's him
or someone else, it's about the
majority," Setter said.
Orman ran for Senate in 2008
as a Democrat but dropped
out of the primary. He has also
made fnancial contributions
to President Obama and oth-
ers. He had also been a regis-
tered Republican and made
contributions to GOP candi-
dates.
"Senator Roberts' increas-
ingly desperate campaign is
turning to the only playbook
his new handlers from Wash-
ington, DC know: throw out a
lot of baseless negative attacks,
and continue to try to divide
people along partisan lines.
Kansans of all parties are fed
up with the broken system in
Washington. Tey want an in-
dependent voice in the Senate,
and that's why every day more
and more Republicans, Dem-
ocrats and Independents are
supporting Greg Orman for
Senate."
Orman's press secretary, Sam
Edelen, said in a statement Sat-
urday night that Roberts was
reverting to "baseless negative
attacks" while trying to "divide
people along partisan lines."

Dear campus Wi-Fi: its tearing up

I try so hard to be a good student
but then professors dont post the

FFA OF THE DAY

How the heck is it the Underground if I have to climb half of Everest to


get there?

W
hen I saw the
protesters
outside Strong
Hall last Tuesday, I was
excited to see engaged
students who were
standing up for what they
believed in. I thought
that by now enough
information and attention
had been brought to the
issue of sexual assault
that most would be
informed about what was
going on and understand
why it was a problem.
Apparently, that is not
the case.
Throughout the day,
several people walking
along Jayhawk Boulevard
chimed in about the
protests over a popular
social media app called
Yik Yak, an anonymous
KU chat room that
requires a location within
five miles to post.
What they had to say
was sickening.
Im protesting the
protest on sexual assault
by raping one person
every hour on the hour,
said one post. Another
said, I hate these blurred
lines they make it harder
to rape.
Other statements
showed a clear lack of
understanding about what
rape is.
Why are girls
complaining about being
raped?? I would love to get
raped! one person stated.
Another user said, I
got raped and it was
awesome!
Rape is non-consensual,
meaning that by definition
it is a physical action
you do not want done
to you. It is a terrifying,
traumatizing moment of
violence in a persons life
not a sexual fantasy.
To anyone who wrote
or agreed with these
comments, I encourage
you to really think about
what youre saying. Youre
saying that you would
enjoy having someone
put you in a completely
powerless position and
force themselves on you.
Youre saying that if
someone took away all
of your agency whenever
they felt like it and used
your body as a thing to be
controlled that you would
enjoy it. If you still think
thats true, I assure you,
youre the only one.
Although all of the
posts were horrible, the
ones that bothered me
most were the ones aimed
directly at the protesters.
Sounds like someone
needs a good raping ;)
one said, while another
said, Double points if you
rape a feminist.
These perhaps show
what is so wrong with
the rape culture we live
in. If people stand up for
what they believe in, or
show bravery by sitting
with a sign on Jayhawk
Boulevard, the response
is to threaten them with
violence to silence their
voice. And in case youre
unclear, yes, both of those
statements are indirectly
threatening the protesters.
Both of those statements
are wrong in so many
ways, I cant possibly go
into all of them here.
Every time I read these
Yik Yak posts they make
me physically nauseated.
They show flippant
attitudes toward a very
serious subject, and
they do so in extremely
offensive ways. More than
anything else that has
come up so far in the past
few weeks, these posts
show me just how far our
campus has to go before
we really understand
what rape is and take it
seriously.

Sexual assault awareness falling on deaf ears
By Anna Wenner
@Anna_Wenner
T
he past few weeks
in sports have
been trying ones.
The National Football
League came out the clear
loser with several of its
players being accused of
domestic and child abuse.
The nightmare began
when an elevator video
emerged of Baltimore
Ravens running back Ray
Rice knocking his then-
fiance unconscious in an
elevator.
The bad PR continued
when Minnesota Vikings
running back Adrian
Peterson turned himself
in on charges of child
abuse. Last October
Petersons 2-year-
old son passed away
due to injuries from
abuse by the mothers
boyfriend, Joseph Robert
Pattinson, which makes
Petersons actions even
more inexplicable. The
Carolina Panthers Greg
Hardy is under fire
as well for assaulting
his former girlfriend
and threatening to kill
her, according to the
Charlotte Observer. More
cases of domestic abuse
seem to be flooding out
as Ray McDonald of the
San Francisco 49ers is
accused of hitting his
pregnant fiance and
Arizona Cardinals player
Jonathan Dwyer was
arrested after reportedly
headbutting his girlfriend
and breaking her nose,
according to ABC News.
The NFL seems to be
sending the message that
appropriate punishment
will only occur when
there is physical
evidence. But what are
the fans supposed to
think? Rice was originally
given a meager two-game
suspension before the
infamous video was made
available to the public,
but now the NFL has
banned him indefinitely.
McDonald is still able
to play on the field until
more evidence arises in
his case, and Hardy has
been removed from the
roster. In another belated
move, Peterson has been
banned from all team
activities.
Hannah Storm, an
ESPN anchor, delivered
a monologue on-air
explaining her two
daughters responses
to the Rice incident.
Storms daughters asked
questions that many
people are asking: Why
did he do this? Why isnt
he in jail?
I believe that in the
United States and
throughout the rest of the
world talent is seen
as an excuse. Along with
fans asking why? others
are asking why not?
Its possible the NFL
can take a hit for banning
Rice, whom some call
the best running back in
football, but sometimes
we need to put the well-
being of society over the
well-being of a sport.
Talent is not an excuse
for misbehavior or a
renewable Get Out of
Jail Free card. Talent is
something that deserves
to be applauded when its
used correctly and should
be disregarded when
judging a persons role in
culpability for any and all
crimes.
Though the NFL
should be criticized
for its inaction, the
origin of its forgive
and forget mentality
isnt hard to pinpoint.
NFL Commissioner
Roger Goodell and
the rest of the leagues
administration were
raised on the same
mentality we still raise
our kids with today:
Sports are supreme.
Sports appeal to all
of us and this appeal
sometimes comes at the
cost of our ability to
discern right from wrong.
We make athletes believe
in this world where rules
seldom apply, and we
enforce it by refusing
to punish them when
theyve broken those
rules. I believe this is the
root of our problem and
is something we should
all keep in mind.

NFL, fans cannot turn
blind eye to abuse charges
By Maddy Mikinski
@miss__maddy
S
cotland has officially
voted on preserving
the blue and white
background of the Union
Jack.
In the weeks leading up
to Thursdays Scottish
independence referendum,
I wondered what factors
mattered the most to the
Scots. The No campaign
seemed to care most about
economic consequences of
the divorce, while the Yes
campaign seemed more
focused on cultural and
political identity. Although
these generalizations do
injustice to the many
factors that were important
for this landmark vote, I
think they can be used to
ask some questions about
the purpose of nations and
independence in modern
times.
Last week when I was
reading about the possible
divorce, it seemed that
major arguments from the
No campaign were only
weak emotional appeals
to a past friendship.
Slogans such as Better
Together appeared, along
with arguments on the
importance of its economic
partnership. Its as if they
were trying to hold on to a
friendship it knew hadnt
been maintained very well.
The Yes campaign, on
the other hand, seemed to
have had a more upbeat
program, drawing on the
cultural excitement of
possible independence
from the older-brother
figure of England sort of
like, Yes, We Can.
What was most
fascinating was how neck-
and-neck the polls were
throughout the campaign,
though the final tally was
55 percent voting no.
Since the polls depicted
a close tie, I wondered
whether the half of
Scotland that voted no were
truly happy with belonging
to the U.K., or whether
they were solely interested
in the economic security
that came along with their
partnership.
If the majority of
Scotland voted no for
the sake of economic
prosperity, does that make
cultural independence
(for example, creating
a legal system based on
your cultures values) less
important than economic
factors when deciding on
independence?
I try to understand, from
the perspective of a well-
off university student in
the U.S., how important
the economy may be for
peoples well-being. I try
to justify voting based on
economic considerations,
putting myself in the
position of someone
who may lose a job or
other such opportunities
if the divorce ended up
happening. Nevertheless,
at the level we are talking
about, independence
should have been much
more than an economic
matter.
Scotland would have
definitely been able
to survive on its own
economically, making
it able to consider
independence without
having to worry about
economic dependence.
Whats more important
for a large group of people
with the same values is that
they should have been able
to decide for themselves
how they ought to operate
their society. Independence
is a question of cultural
self-determination;
economic factors should
have been secondary.

Scotland should have
chosen independence

The big difference between Watson and
Anschutz is that Anschutz was built with
raised ooring, so you can do wiring under
the oor, unlike Watson.

Another big difference is that Watson has
xed stack towers, and theyre very inexi-
ble. Theyre good for books, and thats it.

Watson received an A grade for energy
efciency.
Smith said among 39 core buildings on
campus, Watson has the second highest
energy grade.
Watson has worked closely with KU IT to
work on saving power and energy.
Experiments will occur this winter to see if
motion sensing lights work to save on en-
ergy consumption. Most energy costs come
from lighting the library every day.

Alumni have lots of positive memories of
studying here in Watson, Smith said.

Millers short lm Murder in the Stacks
was made in the library.
The additions of 1950 was the rst major
construction job to be launched at the state
institutions since the end of the World War
II.
The Watson Library Rededication ceremony
featured a Carrie Watson look-alike contest.

A short lm Lord of the Libraries was
partially lmed at Watson.

Conversations push past
Marvel vs. DC debates in
the new KU Comic Book
Club. Te club instead aims
to gather students together
who share an interest in the
growing enterprise inspired
by comics.
Jarred Morris, a junior
from St. Paul, Minn., is the
clubs founder and president.
Morris started the club in the
fall of 2013.
Its a space for people who
like comic books to collabo-
rate and talk about comics,
Morris said. With movies,
comic books have become
more mainstream, but when
I was younger, if you were a
reader of comics you really
didnt explain that to people.
Seeing the need for a club
where that kind of conversa-
tion was encouraged, Morris
founded the group.
I met people who were in-
terested in comics before I
formed the group, so I had a
foundation, Morris said.
Morris said he was interest-
ed in comics from a young
age.
Im artistic and Ive always
been big on books, litera-
ture and fantasy, so comics
combined all of the elements
that I liked, he said. Once I
picked up the frst one, I was
hooked.
Morris said his favorite
comic is the Savage Dragon
series. He said he likes the
series for its stories as well
as the art, and because its an
independent title.
Te group meets to discuss
everything from updates
in series and storylines to
the story arcs and motives
of specifc characters. Te
group is currently reading
Dream Tief by Jai Nitz, a
lecturer in the Department
of Film and Media Studies.
Nitz teaches a course on
comic books and flm, and
has written for both Marvel
and DC, among other pub-
lishers.
Morris said aside from
reading and discussing com-
ics, the club has also gone to
see movies together. He said
since the club is new, they are
getting more into expanding
it.
Te club currently has 11
members. Tere are no re-
quirements or previous com-
ic knowledge necessary to
join.
Even if you dont have an
extensive knowledge of com-
ic books, the club is open to
anyone interested in comics
or the culture, Morris said.
Most members have an af-
fnity for the medium, how-
ever.
Noor Mozafar, a sopho-
more from Overland Park
and vice president of the KU
Comic Book Club, said she
frst became interested in
comics around age 8.
Ive always loved art, Mo-
zafar said. My older brother
used to collect comic books,
so I would steal his to look at
the pictures and read them.
Her favorite comic book se-
ries are Batman and Teen
Titans.
Batman has a lot of inter-
esting villains and usually
interesting stories, Mozafar
said. With the Teen Titan
series you get a lot of difer-
ent characters a little bit
of Superman, a little Batman
and more.
Broc Bowman, a junior
from Olathe and member
of the club, said his favor-
ite character is Iron Man.
Bowman said even before
the recent flm trilogy, he
loved Iron Mans armor and
intelligence. His favorite
comic book issue is Tales of
Suspense #39 in which the
character of Iron Man is frst
introduced.
Regardless of personal pref-
erences, club members agree
that comics are an interest
everyone should pick up.
Its something you can do
your whole life, Morris said.
Morris wants to make the
club well established before
he leaves so he can pass it on
to the next group.
I want to to leave a legacy
with the club, he said.
Te club meets each Friday
at 2 p.m. in Anschutz Li-
brary, room 428.

Obama: College campus sexual

WASHINGTON Amid a
new focus on violence against
women, President Barack
Obama kicked of a star-pow-
ered campaign Friday against
campus sexual assault partic-
ularly targeted at encouraging
men to take a stand.
Jon Hamm of "Mad Men,"
Kerry Washington of "Scan-
dal" and NBA all-star Kevin
Love are some of the familiar
faces appearing in a public
service announcement along
with the president. Te "It's
On Us" campaign encour-
ages everyone to consider
stopping sexual assault their
personal responsibility and to
intervene when they suspect
a woman can't or won't con-
sent.
With an estimated 1 in 5
college women experiencing
an attack, Obama decried
"the quiet tolerance of sexual
assault" and called it "an af-
front to our basic humanity."
Research has shown most
victims know their attackers,
alcohol or drugs are ofen in-
volved and only 12 percent of
college women report the at-
tack to police.
Te Obama administration
has been raising awareness
of the problem this year,
ahead of a midterm elec-
tion in which Democrats are
counting on a strong turnout
by female voters. In January,
Obama launched the White
House Task Force to Protect
Students from Sexual Assault
that recommended action
campuses could take to pro-
tect victims. Te U.S. Depart-
ment of Education for the frst
time publicly exposed the list
of colleges under federal in-
vestigation for their handling
of sexual assault complaints.
Te latest efort has a partic-
ular focus on reaching men
on campus.
"You don't want to be the guy
who stops a friend from tak-
ing a woman home," Obama
said, while arguing it is men's
responsibility to do so.
Vice President Joe Biden
was even more blunt in his
message to men. "Step up!" he
said. "Be responsible. Inter-
vene. You have an obligation
to make a pariah of those on
campus who abuse another
person."
Violence against women has
taken on a new prominence
recently amid controversy
over the NFL's handling of

Picasso among pieces of collection
going on public display in Ohio
COLUMBUS, Ohio
When retail mogul Leslie
Wexner peers at one of the
Picassos, Dubuffets or Gia-
comettis in the personal art
collection he and his wife
Abigail have amassed over
the years, he feels a range of
emotions that often include
gratitude, defeat and exhil-
aration.
"I find it inspiring in a
way that tangible cre-
ativity you find in paint-
ing or performance," says
the philanthropist and
chairman of L Brands, the
company behind Victoria's
Secret, Limited and Henri
Bendel.
Art lovers will get an op-
portunity to experience
their own emotional re-
sponses to the Wexners'
rarely seen collection be-
ginning Sunday, when 60 of
their paintings and sculp-
tures spanning the 19th
through 21st centuries go
on public display. "Trans-
figurations" runs through
Dec. 31 at the Wexner
Center for the Arts, on the
campus of Ohio State Uni-
versity.
The exhibit marks the
25th anniversary of the
center, named for Wexner's
father, and is curated by
Robert Storr, a former se-
nior curator at New York's
Museum of Modern Art
who is now dean of the Yale
University School of Art.
After acquiring works
of mid-20th century New
York abstract expression-
ists, particularly Franz
Kline, Mark Rothko and
Willem de Kooning, Wex-
ner gravitated toward the
many periods of Pablo Pi-
casso, the cubist and sur-
realist sculptor Alberto
Giacometti and the often
childlike abstractions of
Jean Dubuffet. A dancer
of Edgar Degas and several
Susan Rothenbergs are also
among works on display.
"It was never intended to
be a collection," Abigail
Wexner says. "Emotional
appeal or admiration for
the quality of the picture
was what we responded to
the most." Her husband
adds, "It began with, 'I like
this drawing.'"
With the show, the Wex-
ner Family Collection joins
a recent trend from New
York to Los Angeles of
turning private collections
into their own exhibits, says
Inge Reist, director of the
Frick Collection's Center for
the History of Collecting in
New York.
The collections of the Clark
Brothers and literary pioneer
Gertrude Stein were shown
at the Metropolitan Muse-
um of Art in New York in
2006 and 2012, respectively.
The Meyerhoff Collection
was displayed at the Nation-
al Gallery in Washington in
2009. Philanthropists Eli and
Edythe Broad and the fami-
ly of Wal-Mart founder Sam
Walton have built new art
museums in Los Angeles and
Bentonville, Ark., respective-
ly, to house their collections.
Picasso expert Elizabeth
Cowling says the Wexners'
collection will give spec-
tators and scholars a rare
opportunity to view many
important pieces that hav-
en't been seen publicly in de-
cades, if ever.
"It's very exciting to think
that these pictures are com-
ing out in the open," says
Cowling, a professor emer-
itus at the University of Ed-
inburgh in Scotland. She
cites Picasso's "Seated Nude
Woman" of 1959 and his
"Mother and Child on the
Shore" of 1902, as examples.
Among other rarities on
display is "Nude in a Black
Armchair," which Picasso
painted in 1932. His grand-
daughter, art historian Diana
Widmaier Picasso, says it's
one of her personal favorites,
depicting her grandmother
Marie-Thrse Walter.

Museum of Modern Art
who is now dean of the Yale
University School of Art.
After acquiring works
of mid-20th century New
York abstract expression-
ists, particularly Franz
Kline, Mark Rothko and
Willem de Kooning, Wex-
ner gravitated toward the
many periods of Pablo Pi-
casso, the cubist and sur-
realist sculptor Alberto
Giacometti and the often
childlike abstractions of
Jean Dubuffet. A dancer
of Edgar Degas and several
Susan Rothenbergs are also
among works on display.
"It was never intended to
be a collection," Abigail
Wexner says. "Emotional
appeal or admiration for
the quality of the picture
was what we responded to
the most." Her husband
adds, "It began with, 'I like
this drawing.'"
With the show, the Wex-
ner Family Collection joins
a recent trend from New
York to Los Angeles of
turning private collections
into their own exhibits, says
Inge Reist, director of the
Frick Collection's Center for
the History of Collecting in
New York.
The collections of the Clark
Brothers and literary pioneer
Gertrude Stein were shown
at the Metropolitan Muse-
um of Art in New York in
2006 and 2012, respectively.
The Meyerhoff Collection
was displayed at the Nation-
al Gallery in Washington in
2009. Philanthropists Eli and
Edythe Broad and the fami-
ly of Wal-Mart founder Sam
Walton have built new art
museums in Los Angeles and
Bentonville, Ark., respective-
ly, to house their collections.
Picasso expert Elizabeth
Cowling says the Wexners'
collection will give spec-
tators and scholars a rare
opportunity to view many
important pieces that hav-
en't been seen publicly in de-
cades, if ever.
"It's very exciting to think
that these pictures are com-
ing out in the open," says
Cowling, a professor emer-
itus at the University of Ed-
inburgh in Scotland. She
cites Picasso's "Seated Nude
Woman" of 1959 and his
"Mother and Child on the
Shore" of 1902, as examples.
Among other rarities on
display is "Nude in a Black
Armchair," which Picasso
painted in 1932. His grand-
daughter, art historian Diana
Widmaier Picasso, says it's
one of her personal favorites,
depicting her grandmother
Marie-Thrse Walter.

When Spanish forward Toni
Dovale frst arrived in America
to play with Sporting Kansas
City in March, he was never
deemed ready to stay on the
pitch for a 90-minute match.
Tere was a game early
on. I had to take him out
because the game got really
fast, coach Peter Vermes said
in a press conference following
Tursdays game. He just
wasnt ready for it.
When he fnally played a
full 90 minutes on Tursday
night in Sporting KCs 3-1 win
against Costa Ricas Deportivo
Saprissa, he was more than
ready. He notched his second
and third goals in CONCACAF
Champions League play as
Sporting KC took control of
group 2 with a home win,
which increases its point total
to four in two games.
For him its not the soccer;
its the speed of the play, the
physicality of of the game,
Vermes said. Saprissa is a very
athletic team, so this was very
much like an MLS team.
Te Champions League
is a major tournament that
brings together the best teams
from North America, Central
America and the Caribbean.
Te winner will qualify as the
CONCACAF representative
for the 2015 FIFA Club World
Cup. If the team does come
out of group play, itll be the
second consecutive appearance
in the tournament round of
the Champions League for
Sporting KC.
Te team did a really good
job, one of the best 90 minutes
we have had in the last few
weeks, Dovale said in an
interview afer the game. I
think we are going up again.
Afer some tough games, I
think we are going in the right
way.
Sporting KC struggled
throughout the frst half,
missing a number of goal
opportunities and failing
to fnd any real space in the
middle of the feld against a
tight Saprissa defense. Te
team still controlled the frst
half, going to the break at
1-1 afer a penalty kick from
Dom Dwyer his 20th goal
across all matches and his
frst Champions League goal.
Tough Saprissas Juan Bustos
did come up with a goal in the
frst half, the Costa Rican team
never threatened in the second
half.
In the 69th minute, Sporting
KC defender Igor Juliao foated
a pass from the attacking right
side of the box into the penalty
area. Te next time the ball hit
the ground, it was past Saprissa
keeper Dany Alvarez and into
back of the net on a volley from
Dovale to give Sporting KC a
2-1 lead.
Seven minutes later, Dwyer
drove into the penalty box,
touched the ball with just
enough juice to to get it to an
unguarded Dovale, who sent it
screaming into the top of the
net. Te goal placed Dovale
at third in the league in three
goals, tied with eight others.
Te game also proved to the
coaches that Dovale was fnally
physically ready.
Ive been working very hard
with the ftness coach for the
last three to four months,
Dovale said. Im happy
because I can see the results.
Te victory in front of 16,834
supporters moved Sporting KC
further from its four-match
slump and into better form
for what looks to be another
run in the MLS playofs. A
win in Tuesdays match against
Nicaraguas Real Esteli will put
Sporting KC in good shape to
come out of its group and into
elimination play for 2015.

DAYDAY, MONTH ##, 2014 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN PAGE ##
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla.
Te frst victory of the season
provided some relief for the
injury-ravaged Kansas City
Chiefs.
Alex Smith shook of fve
sacks to throw three touchdown
passes and help the Chiefs beat
the Miami Dolphins 34-15 on
Sunday.
Smith led touchdown drives
of 62, 76 and 66 yards in a span
of four possessions as Kansas
City took leads of 14-0 and 21-
10. Te defense protected the
early lead, allowing only four
third down conversions and
sacking Ryan Tannehill four
times.
Te Chiefs improved to 1-2
and won for only the third time
in their past 11 games, including
postseason. Te Dolphins fell
to 1-2, another wobbly start
for a team that hasnt won a
postseason game since 2000.
Smith, who ranked 35th and
last in the NFL in passing afer
two weeks, went 19 for 25 for
186 yards, with three of his
incompletions dropped. He
threw scoring passes of 11 and
4 yards to Joe McKnight, and 20
yards to Travis Kelce.
Te Chiefs were without seven
starters, including running
back Jamaal Charles, who was
inactive because of a high ankle
sprain. Knile Davis, subbing for
Charles, rushed for a career-
high 132 yards on 32 carries,
and he scored on a 21-yard run.
Kansas City totaled 23 frst
downs despite shaky pass
protection. One sack of Smith
resulted in a safety, and another
by Jared Odrick forced a
fumble that set up Miamis only
touchdown.
Te teams appeared evenly
matched at the outset. Te
Dolphins were penalized 15
yards for unsportsmanlike
conduct when an ofcial ran
into a coach along the sideline.
Two plays later, Kansas City lost
15 yards on a botched exchange
on a double reverse.
Te Chiefs early highlights
were a pair of 64-yard punts by
Dustin Colquitt. But the ofense
got rolling midway through the
second quarter, mounting a 62-
yard drive capped by Davis 21-
yard touchdown run.
Te Chiefs drove 76 yards for
another touchdown on their
next series to lead 14-0.
Tey wrapped up the victory
with a 44-yard touchdown drive
following a 47-yard punt return
by Frankie Hammond Jr. Smith
hit McKnight for the score to
make it 27-15 with 4:35 lef.

A closer look at Saturdays Kansas-Central Michigan matchup
FOOTBALL FILM REVIEW
OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE
GAME: JIMMAY MUNDINE
Te senior tight end didnt
score a touchdown, and didnt
have a long reception. But
two of his six catches came
on third down, which helped
the Jayhawks convert two
touchdowns afer both of
those third-down conversions.
Mundine fnished the game
with a team-high 67 yards
receiving.
DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE
GAME: JAKE LOVE
Junior linebacker Jake Love
didnt have a great week against
Duke, but rebounded against
Central Michigan. Weis said
afer the game that Love was the
only player he called out because
of how well he played. In the
fourth quarter, Love sacked
Central Michigan quarterback
Cooper Rush and made four
tackles for a loss of yards.
PLAYER KANSAS STRUGGLED TO
CONTAIN: JESSE KROLL
Central Michigans wide
receiver only had three catches
for 54 yards. Kroll made three
tough catches, and one was
a long 29-yard reception,
which Kroll fought with senior
cornerback JaCorey Shepherd
for the ball. Kroll was the only
Central Michigan threat the
entire game.
OFFENSE SUMMARY
Collectively, the ofense had
an efcient game. Sophomore
quarterback Montell Cozart
threw one interception that
wasnt his fault Tony Pierson
fumbled a pass, which was
caught before it hit the ground.
Beside that one interception,
the Jayhawks didnt turn the ball
over, and they scored on three
big plays over 30 yards a piece.
Te most impressive stat was the
nine third-down conversions.
DEFENSE SUMMARY
Tis game was the best
performance by the Kansas
defense all season. Afer giving
up 515 yards to Duke, the
Jayhawks held Central Michigan
to 279 total yards and 101 yards
rushing. Te Jayhawks only
gave up one touchdown and
ten total points, while sacking
the quarterback three times
compared to zero sacks last
weekend against Duke. Te
Jayhawks forced three turnovers
on two forced fumbles by senior
linebacker Ben Heeney and
sophomore Ben Goodman
and an interception by JaCorey
Shepherd.
SPECIAL TEAMS SUMMARY
Te kicking game had its ups
and downs against Central
Michigan. Field goal kicker
Matt Wyman hit one of two feld
goals the frst feld goal was
a 27-yarder, and the second was
missed from 35 yards. Senior
punter Trevor Pardula had a
shaky game, as well. Pardula
punted six times for an average
of 41 yards. Although two of
Pardulas punts went inside
Central Michigans 20 yard
line, the other four punts were
shanked to give the Chippewas
the ball at midfeld.
PLAY OF THE GAME
On the very frst play of the
game, senior receiver Tony
Pierson took the handof from
Cozart and went 74 yards for
a touchdown. Pierson beat the
Central Michigan linebackers
to the edge, and Pierson sped
past the rest of the Chippewa
defense.
QUARTER SUMMARIES
First Quarter - Afer the Pierson
touchdown, the Jayhawks and
the Chippewas didnt score. Te
Kansas defense forced Central
Michigan to two three-and-
outs, and a Ben Goodman strip-
sack gave the Jayhawks their
frst turnover of the game.
Second Quarter - Cozart and
the ofense couldnt get
anything going, and Cozart
threw an interception
inside the Central Michigan
red zone. Following the
interception, Central
Michigan was able to put
three points on the board
before halfime with a 37-
yard feld goal by Brian
Eavey.
Tird Quarter - Central
Michigans opening drive
ended with a forced
fumble by Ben Heeney,
which was recovered by
junior defensive lineman
TJ Semke. Te following
Kansas possession, Matt
Wyman put the Jayhawks
up 10-3 with a 27-yard
feld goal. Te Chippewas
responded with a seven-play
75-yard drive that ended
with a 15-yard touchdown
run by Martez Walker.
Fourth Quarter - Going
into the fourth quarter, the
Jayhawks and Chippewas
were tied at 10. Te frst
Kansas possession, Cozart
found senior receiver
Justin McCay for a 60-yard
touchdown catch and run.
Te Kansas defense held
Central Michigan to three
three-and-outs in the fourth
quarter, and the Jayhawks
raised their lead to 24-10
afer a 30-yard touchdown
catch by freshman running
back Corey Avery.
MOVING FORWARD
Te Jayhawks were held
to only seven points in the
frst half, which wont work
next weekend against Texas.
Kansas hasnt defeated the
longhorns since 2008, and its
losing streak will continue if
the Jayhawks cant fnd a way
to score early. Te Kansas
defense showed that its able
to hang in games, but will
have a tougher matchup next
weekend.

FRANK WEIRICH/KANSAN
Senior wide receiver Justin McCay escapes a Central Michigan defender on his way to a touchdown, his rst for
the season. Kansas passed for 231 yards in their 24-10 victory in Lawrence.
Cowboys erase 21-point decit, beat Rams 34-31
ST. LOUIS Dez Bryant
had so much distance on the
closest defender, it was pitch
and catch. Blown coverage
made it the easiest play the
Dallas Cowboys made in a
comeback that matched the
biggest in franchise history.
No one ever comes that wide
open, quarterback Tony Romo
said of the 68-yard touchdown
pass that was among the big
plays that helped the Cowboys
erase a 21-0 defcit and stun
the St. Louis Rams 34-31 on
Sunday. You want to make
sure you dont do anything
stupid.
Te Cowboys (2-1) had
plenty of time to chip away,
and no one panicked about
the cushion theyd spotted the
Rams.
We never blinked, I can
honestly say that, Bryant said.
Romo has 21 comeback
victories in the fourth quarter
or overtime, a franchise best.
Tony went out there and did
what Tony do, Bryant said.
He was poised and he knew
what he wanted to do.
Terrance Williams scored
the go-ahead touchdown late
in the fourth quarter, and
Bruce Carter returned an
interception 25 yards for a
TD on the next snap, capping
the rally.
DeMarco Murrays 1-yard
run late in the frst half began
the rally.
Dallas also rallied from
a 21-point defcit in 1984
against New Orleans and 1999
against Washington, although
both of those wins came in
overtime.
It tied the second-largest lead
blown by the Rams (1-2), who
slowed Murray but got burned
everywhere else. Among other
breakdowns was a fubbed
snap by center Scott Wells, who
didnt realize Austin Davis was
in the shotgun, resulting in
a lost fumble, and a dropped
touchdown pass by Jared Cook
that could have put the Rams
up 28-21. Tey settled for a
feld goal.
I feel like I let this game slip
through my hands and its my
fault, Cook said.
St. Louis is 0-2 at home
and was whipped 34-6 by
Minnesota in the opener.
Coach Jef Fisher said Davis
played well, but that Shaun Hill
would be the starter afer the
upcoming bye week.
So, weve got some work
to do and some time to look
at what were doing, Fisher
said. Tey played very, very
hard. But they didnt play very
smart.
Murray had 100 yards on
24 carries and lost a fumble
for the fourth straight game
dating to last season, even afer
switching from carrying the
ball on his lef side to the right.
Tree of his 10 career 100-yard
games are against the Rams and
all leading to victories, with a
franchise-record 253 yards in
2011 and 175 yards last season.
Janoris Jenkins 25-yard
interception return, the ffh
defensive touchdown in his
three seasons, put the Rams up
21-0 with 6:06 to go in the frst
half.
Davis cut the Cowboys lead
to three points on a 4-yard
pass to Austin Pettis with 2:36
to go, but Morris Claibornes
interception clinched it with
1:02 lef.
Romo was 4 for 5 for 40 yards
and scrambled 16 yards on
third-and-13 on the go-ahead
drive. His second-half play
overshadowed a third costly
INT of the year.
We were able to execute
under pressure or whatever
you want to say, blah, blah,
blah, Romo said. We got it
done.
Penalties and a turnover
late in the frst half helped the
Cowboys close the gap.
Murrays 1-yard run came
a play afer rookie Lamarcus
Joyners interference call in
the end zone. Henry Melton
recovered a fumble on Scott
Wells fubbed shotgun snap,
and a roughing-the-passer call
on Eugene Sims got Dallas
closer for Dan Baileys 29-yard
feld goal.
ASSOCIATED PRESS

They played very, very hard.


But they didnt play very
smart.

Tennis benets from
tough tournaments
Te Kansas tennis team
will return to Lawrence from
Norman, Okla., with few
wins but plenty to build on.
Coach Todd Chapman
found more positives from
this tournament than lasts
week tournaments, but his
goal for all of them was to
identify what his team needs
to work on.
Te most encouraging
thing was that we were very
competitive with a lot of
good teams, Chapman said.
We had some good wins
by diferent players. Some
players from last weekend to
this weekend have improved
and gotten better.
Sophomore Caroline
Henderson recorded the frst
singles win of the tournament
for the Jayhawks, with a
straight sets win in the Stoops
Draw. Te tournament was
split into four diferent draws,
and Kansas was represented
by at least one player in each.
Freshman Alexis Czapinski
and Melinda Johnson
joined Henderson as the
only players to win on the
frst day of the tournament,
and Jasmine Almaguer, a
sophomore, was given a
bye to the next round in the
Switzer Draw. Almaguer and
Johnson won matches in
consolation matches on the
last day of the tournament.
Rachel McNeely, another
freshman, came back to win
in three sets in the Stoops
Consolation Draw.
Maria Belen Luduea won
the championship of her
singles division last weekend
in Little Rock, Ark., but was
not able to continue that
success, with a loss in this
weekends frst round to
Oklahomas Lily Miyazaki.
Kansas small success was
encouraging for Chapman,
who has sent his young team
to tournaments that require
them to improve their
game. Chapman rejected the
suggestion that his players
might get complacent afer
facing difcult competition.
Some coaches look to
have a sof schedule, pad
the results, and let the girls
get some confdence and
things like that, Chapman
said. In my opinion, thats a
false confdence because its
not against anyone thats any
good.
Chapman pointed out
that his team has worked
well to stay in shape for
matches, but has lacked
the mental strength to
win in close matches.
What we need to work
on most was that we
put ourselves in a lot of
winning situations this
weekend but our record in
close matches wasnt very
good, Chapman said.
We were in shape, but
from a mental standpoint,
we have a hard time
closing out matches when
were in a position to win.
Te team has a lot to work
on, but will be given plenty
of time to practice before
its next tournament, the
ITA Regional tournament
on Oct. 16. Some players
will also have the chance to
get healthy, with freshman
Summer Collins yet to play
for Kansas this season due to
illness.
Chapman is looking
forward to the break.
We have played hard for
two weeks, Chapman said.
We need to take three or
four days to get healthy and
then we can get to work
on the things we need to
practice. It gives us a good
break to truly make some
changes in their games.

SEATTLE Once Peyton
Manning had completed a
frantic fourth-quarter rally to
force overtime, Russell Wilson
could admit to being a little
selfsh.
Wilson wanted the spotlight
himself to put together one
fnal drive, keeping Manning
sitting on the sideline as a
spectator and making sure the
Super Bowl rematch went in
favor of the champions.
I cant wait for those
moments, those big-time
moments and have guys to
continue to believe in what we
do, Wilson said. Tat was a
great experience tonight.
Wilson kept Manning and
the Denver Broncos from
seeing the ball in overtime.
He led Seattle on an 80-yard
drive on the frst possession
of the extra session, capped
by Marshawn Lynchs 6-yard
touchdown run for a 26-20
victory over the Broncos on
Sunday.
Te Super Bowl rematch
lived up to the billing of what
everyone expected in February
and never transpired. Te 43-8
blowout by Seattle (2-1) was
replaced this time by Denver
(2-1) rallying from a 17-3
fourth-quarter defcit to force
overtime by going 80 yards
against the best defense in
the NFL in the fnal minute of
regulation.
And then Wilson upstaged
Manning. Afer nearly getting
sacked for a safety and
throwing an interception in
the fourth quarter, Wilson was
brilliant in overtime rushing
for 21 yards and completing
four of six passes.
Lynch went the fnal 6 yards
for the win.
I dont think anyone ever
doubts Russell. Hes just too
good, Seattle tight end Zach
Miller said. If you think hes
struggling at all, you know hes
going to make plays like he did
with his feet. He was so huge
there in that second half and
overtime. You always trust in
him.
Afer being hesitant to run in
regulation, Wilson scrambled
for frst downs in overtime. His
7-yard pass to Percy Harvin
was the precursor to Lynchs
TD run and a collective exhale
afer Mannings dramatics in
the fourth quarter.
Wilson fnished 24 of 34
for 258 yards and touchdown
passes of 39 yards to Ricardo
Lockette and 5 yards to Lynch,
both late in the frst half.
Wilson rushed for 40 yards,
most coming in overtime,
while Lynch added 88 yards
rushing.
Tat really was a
championship game today,
Seattle coach Pete Carroll said.
Seattle (2-1) blew a 17-3
fourth-quarter lead, watching
Denver tie the game at 20 on
Mannings 26-yard touchdown
pass to Jacob Tamme with 18
seconds lef in regulation and
his 2-point conversion pass to
Demaryius Tomas.
Mannings rally was helped
by a number of Seahawks
mistakes in the fourth quarter,
including a safety and Wilsons
frst interception of the season.
Manning was 31 of 49 for 303
yards and two touchdowns,
but also threw a costly fourth-
quarter interception.
Denver appeared done afer
Kam Chancellor intercepted
Manning at the Seattle 13 with
2:25 lef, leading to Steven
Hauschkas 28-yard feld goal
with 59 seconds remaining.
But Manning pulled Denver
even with stunning precision,
going 80 yards in just 41
seconds and without any
timeouts capped by Tamme
getting behind K.J. Wright
in coverage for a touchdown
with 18 seconds lef. Tomas
was able to drag both feet on
the 2-point conversion to tie
it at 20.
Against this team, you cant
make mistakes like that,
because it puts you in a hole
thats hard to overcome,
Manning said. We almost
overcame them, but didnt
quite do it today.

Kansas soccer trumps St. Marys
in nal nonconference game
Te Kansas womens soccer
team defeated St. Marys Gaels
with a score of 4-0, in the fnal
nonconference game of the
season, bouncing back from
their frst loss of the season to
Marquette on Tursday.
Te Jayhawks were able to
get goals from junior Courtney
Dickerson, freshman Hannah
Lukinac, sophomore Ashley
Williams and junior Liana
Salazar.
Although Kansas dominated
the majority of the game, ffh
year senior goalkeeper Kaitlyn
Stroud made multiple keys
to keep the Gaels at an arms
length away. Te most vital
came in the frst with score
tied at 0-0.
[Stroud] hasnt had that
much to do in some games,
but when she needs to make
a save, shes coming up really
big, coach Mark Francis
said. Stroud has been very
consistent this year, and shes
very focused.
Te Jayhawks struck frst 30
minutes into the game, but
tested St. Marys goalkeeper
Julia McDonald early.
Dickersons goal came of a
cross inside the box, and she
was able to lif the ball past an
outstretched McDonald.
Lukinac was able to score
her frst collegiate goal late
in the frst half, coming from
a corner kick. Te ball was
initially cleared, but then was
sent back into the box where
Lukinac placed it into the
bottom lef corner of the net.
Even with a two-goal lead
at the half, Francis was not
satisfed with his teams play.
I didnt think our sense of
urgency was very good in the
frst half, we just looked like we
were kind of going half-speed,
Francis said. We needed to be
moving the ball a bit quicker,
and our speed of play was just
way too slow.
Francis halfime speech
visibly had an efect on the
team, as Williams was able
to slot in a third goal two
minutes into the second half.
It was Williams fourth goal
of the year. Te game slowed
down following the goal as the
Jayhawks kept possession for
the most of the second half.
We just looked a lot sharper
in the second half, Francis
said. I was really happy with
our response.
Te fourth goal came from
Salazar, in the fnal minutes
of the second half. She had a
clear path to goal and was able
to get away the Gael defense,
but McDonald got a touch
to the shot. Salazar smartly
followed her rebound and
scored into an open net.
Te Jayhawks move to 9-1 on
the year, and begin conference
play this Friday as they travel
to Waco to face Baylor. Tey
will stay in Texas over the
weekend, where they will take
on Texas Christian University
on Sunday.

TRIVIA OF THE DAY
THE MORNING BREW
Q: Which was the rst ACC team
to hand Florida State a conference
loss?
A: Virginia
Bleacher Report
!
FACT OF THE DAY
The forward pass rst appeared in
college football in 1906. It was in-
troduced in an attempt to increase
scoring and reduce injuries.
New York Times
Underdogs: Nothing to lose, everything to gain
QUOTE OF THE DAY
I
ts almost always fun to root for
the underdogs the bigger the
spread the better. And college
football was certainly not short
on upsets and underdogs this past
weekend.
To kick of this weeks action,
No. 5 Auburn was put to the test last
Tursday against No. 20 Kansas State
in what proved to be the Tigers most
challenging game thus far this season.
Tough Auburn prevailed in the end,
it was a long, hard-fought battle in
Manhattan in a game that was a lot
closer than Tiger fans would have
liked.
No. 2 Oregon kept fans up late Sat-
urday night when a predicted blowout
came a little too close for comfort.
Te heavily favored Oregon Ducks
were expected to win by more than
three touchdowns, but instead, found
themselves in a dogfght with their
conference foe, the Washington State
Cougars. Te Cougars rallied hard,
falling just short of a victory on their
home turf, losing by seven points to
the Ducks, 38-31.
West Virginia kept things interesting
against No. 4 Oklahoma in its frst
Big 12 conference game of the season.
Te Mountaineers and the Sooners
were tied at halfime, but the Sooners
came out of the locker room with the
momentum and carried it through
the end of the game. Tough the
Mountaineers fell short, losing 45-33,
they did keep fans on the edge of their
seats for longer than anyone expected.
And in the biggest, oh-so-close
scare, No. 22 Clemson nearly knocked
of the defending national champion
and No. 1 ranked Florida State in Tal-
lahassee. Clemson battled furiously all
game long and was in position to kick
a game-winning feld goal as time
wound down, only to see
the game slip into overtime
with an unfortunate fum-
ble. In the overtime session,
the Florida State defense
held on a crucial fourth
down, and the Seminole
ofense scored two plays
later to end Clemsons
upset bid.
But enough of the
near-misses. Previously
unranked Mississippi State came out
of nowhere to shut down the No. 8
Louisiana State Tigers 34-29 in Baton
Rouge. Te Bulldogs were rewarded
by a huge jump in the polls to No. 14,
while LSU fell nine spots to No. 17.
Saturdays loss marked the frst time
LSU has lost a Southeastern Confer-
ence home opener since 2005, while
the win ended the Bulldogs 14-game
losing streak against the Tigers dating
back to 1999.
And while no one in Lawrence
was too heartbroken to see Missouri
lose to Indiana, Im sure the feeling
wasnt mutual in Columbia. Te
No. 18 Tigers fell
to the unranked
Hoosiers 31-27.
Indiana came from
behind in the fourth
quarter, scoring
a game-winning
touchdown with just
22 seconds lef on the
clock.
Its upsets and
near-misses like this that
make college football fun. Its
always better to shock people or to
exceed their expectations than to give
them exactly what they are expecting.
At least, that is the case if you are
the underdog. No one likes to watch
blowout games. Tey are boring, even
if youre on the winning side.
Being the underdog is by far the best
way to win. And its not just about
walking away with the W. Its about
walking away knowing youve earned
the respect of football fans across the
nation.

St. Louis Cardinals clinch playoff
spot, then lose 7-2 to Cincinatti Reds
ST. LOUIS Te St. Louis
Cardinals clinched a playof
spot on Sunday, and then lost
7-2 to Jay Bruce and the Cin-
cinnati Reds.
St. Louis secured its fourth
consecutive postseason ap-
pearance when Milwaukee lost
to Pittsburgh earlier in the day.
But the Cardinals' lead in the
NL Central was sliced to 2 1/2
games over the Pirates.
Bruce hit two of Cincinna-
ti's four homers as the Reds
snapped a six-game losing
streak. Todd Frazier and Devin
Mesoraco also went deep.
Reds right-hander Alfredo
Simon (15-10) allowed two
runs and seven hits in six in-
nings. He was working on
a 17-inning scoreless string
before St. Louis scored in the
ffh.
Bruce hit a solo shot in the
fourth and another in the
eighth. He also had an RBI
single in the sixth that gave
Cincinnati a 3-1 lead.
Yadier Molina and Randal
Grichuk hit consecutive RBI
doubles in the St. Louis sixth,
but the Reds responded with
four runs in the eighth. Me-
soraco had the big blow, a
three-run drive against Sam
Tuivailala that made it 6-2.
Te Reds hit four homers in
a game for the third time this
season.
Lance Lynn (15-10) gave up
three runs and four hits in six
innings for St. Louis. He also
struck out nine to run his sea-
son total to 181, making him
the frst St. Louis pitcher to
fan 175 or more in three suc-
cessive years since Bob Gibson
(1970-1972).
Te Cardinals have won sev-
en of nine and close the reg-
ular season on the road with
three-game sets in Chicago
and Arizona.

Kansas pulls away from CMU after big late plays
Burned by the big play
last week, Kansas defeated
Central Michigan 24-10
Saturday by making its own
big plays.
None was bigger than wide
receiver Justin McCays 60-
yard touchdown catch in the
fourth quarter.
I thought that play was
the turning play in the
game, coach Charlie Weis
said.
The score was tied 10-
10 early in the last period.
Sophomore place kicker
Matthew Wyman missed a
35-yard field goal attempt
on the previous drive, and
the team was looking for a
spark.
On a third-and-9 from
the Kansas 40-yard line,
sophomore quarterback
Montell Cozart connected
with McCay in the middle
of the field. McCay ran away
from a defender and headed
for the end zone.
McCay said that when the
opportunity came, he took
it, but was also cautious of
celebrating too much, too
early.
After the play, I was like
Yeah, were up, but then we
have to finish out the game,
McCay said. I cant just
dwell on this play.
It might have been McCays
biggest play in a Kansas
uniform. McCay is a senior
who started out his career at
Oklahoma. After sitting out
a year due to transfer rules,
McCay played in every game
last year, but only had nine
catches for 84 yards and a
touchdown.
Him (McCay) getting an
opportunity to make a big
play like that, its almost
like payback for all the hard
work hes put in, Weis said.
Further big plays then
sealed the victory for the
Jayhawks.
With two minutes left
in the game, freshman
running back Corey
Avery caught a 30-yard
touchdown from Cozart.
Senior cornerback JaCorey
Shepherd followed up on
defense by intercepting a
pass from Central Michigan
quarterback Cooper Rush.
The Jayhawks took the lead
early, just 18 seconds into
the game. The quick senior
Tony Pierson received the
handoff on the opening play
and took off.
Weis said the team lined
up with four wide receivers
and a tight end, so Central
Michigan thought it was
facing an empty backfield.
Pierson, listed as a wide
receiver, became the
running back on the play
and rushed for a 74-yard
touchdown.
I think that Tonys big
play early in the game kind
of sparked everything, but
my biggest concern (energy-
wise) actually was the delay,
Weis said.
There were concerns about
storms all afternoon. There
was almost a 30-minute
delay before the third
quarter started. No storms
ended up reaching Memorial
Stadium.
Cozart rebounded from
last weeks subpar effort
by completing 23 of his 33
passing attempts for 226
yards, two touchdowns and
one interception. Cozart
threw short passes for most
of the first half, which was
efficient enough for the
victory. Cozarts main target
was senior tight end Jimmay
Mundine, who led the team
with six catches for 67 yards.
The defense played solid,
coming up with three sacks
and forcing three turnovers.
Junior safety Isaiah Johnson
led the team with eight
tackles. Junior linebacker
Jake Love made two big
stops on Central Michigans
offense in the fourth quarter.
Before the game, Weis said
this game would set up the
Big 12 season, which starts
next week with Texas. He
and his players were pleased
with this effort.
The locker room was as
happy of a locker room as
weve had in a long time,
Weis said. Those guys
knew the fourth quarter
could have gone either way.

Indiana upsets
No. 18 Missouri
31-27 Saturday
COLUMBIA, Mo. Afer
losing at Bowling Green
last week, Indiana coach
Kevin Wilson wanted his
team to play with our hair
on fre against Missouri on
Saturday.
Whatever message Wilson
was trying to send, the
Hoosiers got it.
DAngelo Roberts scored
on a 3-yard touchdown run
with 22 seconds remaining
and Nate Sudfeld passed for
252 yards and a touchdown
to help the Hoosiers upset
the 18th-ranked Tigers 31-
27.
Weve been talking about
how weve been knocking on
the door and now you have
to knock it down, Wilson
said. We kept tapping on it
and hadnt knocked it down.
Afer giving up 10
consecutive points to
Missouri in the fourth
quarter, the Hoosiers (2-1)
traveled 75 yards on six plays
to reclaim the lead for good.
Tevin Coleman ran 44 yards
to the Missouri 15-yard line
to setup the game-winning
score.
Indiana extended its
fnal drive thanks to a pass
interference penalty on
Missouris John Gibson on
fourth-and-6 at the Hoosiers
29. Sudfeld attempted to fnd
Dominique Booth across
the middle of the feld, but
Gibson wrapped his arms
around the receiver before he
could make the catch.
You have a bad taste
in your mouth, Missouri
linebacker Michael Scherer
said. Tis should have never
happened, but it did, so weve
got to rebound and weve got
to work. Tats all there is to
it.
Indiana entered the game
as a double-digit underdog,
having lost 45-42 to Bowling
Green, but recorded 11
tackles for loss, hamstringing
Missouri for most of the frst
three quarters. Te Tigers
fnished with 498 total yards,
including 145 in the fnal 15
minutes.
Missouri looked to be in
prime position, too, afer
Andrew Baggett kicked a
40-yard feld goal with 2:20
remaining to cap an 11-play,
70-yard drive for a 27-24
lead. Te score followed a
1-yard touchdown pass from
Maty Mauk to Sean Culkin
11 minutes earlier to tie
the game.
When was the last time
we faced adversity? Mauk
asked. Obviously, you
dont want that, but were
going to bounce back and I
have no doubt everybodys
going to get healthy and
were going to come out
ready to play Saturday.
Mauk completed 28
of 47 passes for 326 yards,
two touchdowns and an
interception and Russell
Hansbrough added 119 yards
on the ground on 10 carries.
Te Tigers (3-1) play at South
Carolina next week to start a
stretch of eight consecutive
games against Southeastern
Conference opponents.
Hansbrough provided
sparks for the Tigers in the
opening half afer walking
of the feld gingerly on
Missouris second possession
afer Indianas Antonio
Allen committed a horse-
collar tackle. He then gained
111 yards on his frst three
carries, including 68 yards
on a touchdown run to
tie the score at 14 midway
through the second quarter.
Te Tigers struggled to
contain Coleman, though,
without defensive end
Markus Golden, who injured
his lef hamstring midweek
in practice but is expected
to return next week, coach
Gary Pinkel said. Te senior
defensive end has 6.5 tackles
for loss and four sacks this
season.
Coleman opened the
games scoring with a 1-yard
run 10 minutes into the
game, extending his streak
of reaching the end zone
to 12 games and tying the
school record set by Anthony
Tompson in 1988-89.
Te junior fnished with 132
yards on 19 carries despite
sitting the fnal 20 minutes
of the frst half with cramps,
Wilson said. He returned
during the Hoosiers frst
drive afer the break.
It was a really big win,
Coleman said. We came
out here with fre. We played
until the end.
Indiana gained 493 total
yards, 77 short of their
season average, and fnished
just 1 of 14 on third-down
conversions. While there are
things to fx, a win against an
SEC opponent nonetheless
provided some enthusiasm
heading into Big Ten play
against Maryland.
We aint got nothing
fgured out, Wilson said.
Were the same group of
bums that played last week.
Tats the same bunch of
bums this week. Well see
how we show up next week.

COMMENTARY
15 minutes
decided Weis fate
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
sports
S
By Shane Jackson
@JacksonShane3
L
eading up to its con-
test against Central
Michigan, all the talk
swirling around Kansas
football involved third-year
coach Charlie Weis fghting
for his job.
Weis wasnt just fghting for
a fourth year in his fve-year
plan. Tere was legitimate
doubt whether Weis would
be here next week, if the
Jayhawks were to lose.
So there the man of the hour
stood. He was lef staring at
the scoreboard with his hands
on his hips as the teams were
deadlocked at 10-all through
three quarters of play.
Weis not only delivered in
the most crucial 15 minutes of
his young Kansas career, but
he may have made a roaring
statement on the future of this
football program.
In the fourth quarter, the
Jayhawks had their sec-
ond-largest scoring output
in a quarter this season with
14 unanswered points on the
way to a 24-10 victory and 2-1
record.
Trough three quarters, the
Kansas ofense looked bleak.
Tey had accumulated just
249 total yards ofensively. A
good chunk of them came
on the opening play from
scrimmage when senior Tony
Pierson took an end-around
handof 74 yards for the Jay-
hawks lone touchdown in the
frst 45 minutes.
Sophomore quarterback
Montell Cozart continued to
show his youth, completing
19 of his 27 pass attempts for
134 yards and one intercep-
tion.
But much like the frst
quarter of the season when
they scored 24 points, the
Jayhawks looked like a
completely diferent team in a
15-minute span.
Kansas wound up with 369
total yards ofensively. Cozart
fnished his career night going
23-for-33 for 226 yards and
two touchdowns.
Early in the fourth quarter,
Cozart connected with a 60-
yard catch-and-run on a huge
third-down conversion. It was
Cozarts frst touchdown since
his 67-yard completion in the
third quarter of the season
opener.
On another third-and-9,
Cozart found freshman
running back Corey Avery
over the middle for a 30-yard
touchdown connection with
under two minutes to go in
the game, putting away a team
Kansas was clearly better
than.
On the surface, a 24-10 vic-
tory against a non-conference
foe shouldnt have as much
importance.
But for a coach who picked
up just his third win against
an FBS program during his
Kansas tenure, a win like this
means the world.
Te Jayhawks were 15 min-
utes away from being 1-2, as
they geared for the gruesome
slate of the Big 12 conference.
Instead the Weis-led squad

Kansas volleyball takes title at
Jayhawk Classic over the weekend
MATT CORTE
@Corte_UDK
Saturday nights match
between Kansas and
Arkansas played out as the
de facto championship of
the Jayhawk Classic, with
both teams coming in 2-0 in
the tournament.
What was supposed to be
a highly contested match
for Kansas turned out to
be a fairly lopsided affair.
The Jayhawks did drop
their second overall set of
the invitational, but still
managed to win the match
and the tournament 25-16,
25-11, 27-29 and 25-18.
Coach Ray Bechard was
happy with the win, but still
pointed out that his young
squad needs to focus more
at times.
We got so many young
kids out there, that its a
challenge to play really
well for an hour and forty-
five minutes or two hours,
Bechard said. Thats just
part of our growth, and we
talk as coaches, our staff,
how were going to have
patience with that.
Sophomore libero Cassie
Wait won MVP of the
Jayhawk Classic, the first
of her career after being
selected to her first All-
Tournament team a week
ago at the Villanova Classic.
She finished the match
against Arkansas with 26
digs, giving her 54 overall
for the invitational.
Its an incredible feeling,
but I really just have to
thank my teammates, Wait
said. They funnel the balls
to me, they give me the
opportunity to dig, and if it
werent for them, I wouldnt
be anything.
Freshman setter Ainise
Havili was also selected to
the Jayhawk Classic All-
Tournament team, the third
time this season in which
she was voted onto an All-
Tournament team. Havili
finished with 51 assists
against Arkansas and 131
overall in the invitational,
adding 32 total digs as well.
Im speechless; I dont
know what to say about
it, Havili said. I think it
helped that we won three
out of the four tournaments,
so that was a big part of me
getting any awards at all,
and it was definitely a team
thing.
Freshman outside hitter
Madison Rigdon had a great
tournament too, leading the
team in kills with 46 and
recording a career-high 20
kills against Arkansas in the
process.
The Jayhawks won easily
in their first match of the
invitational, defeating a
then 9-1 North Texas team
25-19, 25-17 and 25-19.
Their second match
against Cleveland State
came with a few hurdles
energy being one of them
but the team still managed
to assert themselves and
win in four sets, 25-14, 18-
25, 25-14 and 25-19.
The win against Cleveland
State also happened to be
the 1000th for Bechards
career, with 284 of those
wins coming at Kansas.
Bechard was all smiles
after the match.
It was cool to hear from a
lot of current and (former)
players that were a part of
that, and coaches, and Ill
obviously share that with
this years team.
To say Kansas started
out strong against
Arkansas would be a vast
understatement, as the
Jayhawks barely let their
opposition come close in
sets one or two, winning 25-
16 and 25-11.
Whatever momentum
Kansas finished with after
set two wore away before
the third set, as Arkansas
battled the Jayhawks point-
for-point until pulling out a
close win, 29-27, saving two
match points.
Luckily for Bechard,
his team in the fourth
set resembled that of the
first two sets in which the
Jayhawks dominated.
After the set was tied 13-
13, Kansas put together a
couple small but crucial
runs, including a 5-2 run to
put the score at 23-17 and
help the Jayhawks cruise to
a comfortable 25-18 fourth
set win.

ALL YOU NEED IS (JAKE) LOVE
Senior linebacker comes up big late against Central Michigan
FRANK WEIRICH/KANSAN
Senior linebacker Jake Love takes down Central Michigan running back Saylor Lavallii on Saturday. Love played a crucial part in Kansas 24-10 victory against CMU, coach Charlie Weis said.
Following the 41-3 defeat
at the hands of the Duke Blue
Devils, the talk surrounding
Kansas football was about not
surrendering the big plays.
Plays of 25 yards or more have
troubled the Jayhawks defense
throughout the early stages of
the 2014 season.
Last Saturday in Durham,
N.C., the Duke ofense scored
from plays of 69, 68, 45 and
36 yards against the Jayhawks,
and in week one, Southeast
Missouri State scored from 68,
37 and 26 yards.
Tis week, however, Central
Michigan (2-2) was held out
of the end zone until there was
6:11 lef in the third quarter
when running back Martez
Walker rumbled in from 18
yards out.
Despite the fnal 14-point
spread, the game was close
throughout, hinging on which
team would make plays.
With Central Michigan
trailing just 17-10 with 6:03 lef
in the game, the Chippewas,
led by sophomore quarterback
Cooper Rush, needed a game
breaker. But one particular
Kansas player would have none
of that.
On second-and-10 from
the CMU 26-yard line, senior
linebacker Jake Love stopped
CMU running back Saylor
Lavallii for a two-yard loss.
On the next play, arguably
one of the games most pivotal,
Love met Lavallii again in the
backfeld for a loss of six.
Te only player I called out
in the locker room afer the
game was Jake Love, coach
Charlie Weis said. Tose back-
to-back plays (Love made)
took the wind out of (Central
Michigans) sail and helped
us win the game.
Love acknowledged Weis
praise afer the game.
It made me feel very nice
about myself, Love said. He
doesnt do that very ofen so
any time he calls you out it
makes you feel good.
Love credited paying
attention to detail during
the game and in the week of
preparation as the key to his
success. Te senior fnished the
day with fve tackles, four for a
loss and a sack. His fnal two
tackles were the most crucial.
Tey ran two screens to
my side back-to-back, Love
said. I was blitzing on one
of the plays, actually, and the
ofensive linemen released
downfeld, I smelled a rat, and
made a few plays.
His performance on the
feld, combined with his
deserved acclaim from Weis
in the locker room, led to a
rambunctious celebration.
Love noted several keys to
limiting the big play.
I think its just everyone
playing a lot more physical
and everyone getting to the
ball, Love said. I didnt think
we did very well against Duke.
We preached that all week in
practice. Get to the ball, get to
the ball.
Senior Ben Heeney gets so
much of the credit at linebacker,
but its complimentary players
like Love who can really take
this defense to the next level.
Teres really no drop of,
Heeney said. As a linebacker
corps, I think were one of the
strongest units on the team.
On the evening, the
Chippewas ofense amassed
just 101 yards on the ground
and 178 yards through the
air in Kansas 24-10 victory.
CMUs longest play from
scrimmage was 29 yards, and
afer allowing 245 yards to
Duke freshman Shaun Wilson
a week ago, Kansas held CMU
as a whole to just 2.9 yards per
carry.
Te defense only gave
up 10 points and had three
turnovers, Weis said. All in
all, they played pretty stout up
front.
Love will look to carry
his performance over to
next weekend as Kansas
takes on Texas for its annual
Homecoming game Saturday.
Te last time the Longhorns
came to Lawrence, Love
notched 2.5 tackles for a loss in
a 21-17 Kansas loss. Kansas will
need that kind of performance
again if it wants to win.

ts that time of year
again. Along with the
return of sweater weath-
er, pumpkin spice lattes and
football games, the end of
September ushers in the re-
turn of traditions and alumni
with Homecoming week.
Tis years theme, Roll
with the Hawks, envelops
all the fun and games that
comes with Homecoming.
In addition to the tradition-
al Homecoming football
game, organizations compete
throughout the week in
the spirit of collaboration
and pride at our University.
Alumni return for reunions
across campus, mixing tradi-
tions of old with traditions of
new to create an atmosphere
that is uniquely KU Home-
coming.
Tese traditions are
highlighted in this issue,
which includes memories of
Homecomings throughout
the years from the perspec-
tives of the people who
experienced them. While
the University has changed
over time, the spirit of its
students has not. One only
needs to look around during
this week to see how involved
and enthusiastic the student
body remains. Combine that
with the alumni returning
this week, and the amount
of spirit on campus will be
enough to make any Jayhawk
proud.
So roll the dice and travel
around the board game that
is the Universitys campus
this week. With events occur-
ring every day, odds are youll
fnd yourself connecting to
more Jayhawks than ever
before, old and young alike.
Afer all, theres nothing quite
like the University of Kansas
during Homecoming Week.

When senior Caleb Johnson
from Basehor was little, he
would come to the University
of Kansas with his family in the
fall. Tere they would watch
the Homecoming parade and
enjoy the atmosphere. Now,
Johnson is one of two parade
chairs on the 2014 Homecom-
ing Steering Committee at the
University.
Johnson became involved
with Homecoming festivities
frst hand at his high school
when he was thrown into
building foats because he
knew power tools. Afer high
school, his experience placed
him in a similar situation.
When I came up to KU and
I rushed, the frst thing my fra-
ternity did was throw me on
the Homecoming committee
because they had heard I had
experience from high school,
Johnson said. Afer that I was
just hooked, and I knew even-
tually at some point I wanted
to apply for Steering. Its al-
ways been something near and
dear to my heart. Tis time of
the year is great.
Johnson is not the only one
who has a special place for
this time of year. Jacey Kreh-
biel, a 2012 KU graduate from
McPherson and coordinator of
Alumni Programs and co-ad-
viser of the Steering Commit-
tee, said she thoroughly en-
joyed Homecoming when she
attended the University.
It was my favorite week as
a student, Krehbiel said. If I
could help other students en-
joy it just as much then thats
the whole point.
Te planning process for this
years Homecoming began in
January afer the 10-member
Steering Committee was se-
lected. Afer the students re-
turned from winter break they
began deciding on a theme.
Te committee met every
week until the spring semester
ended. Afer classes began this
fall, the meetings resumed.
Johnson said this process was
time-consuming but always
interesting.
We started with a list of
probably 100 diferent theme
ideas, and we have to narrow
it down to our top three to
present [to the Alumni Asso-
ciation], Johnson said. Tis
year presenting stuf, and
then the alumni staf telling us
start over again, kind of made
things a little hectic for a few
weeks trying to get the theme
hammered out.
Te committee landed on the
theme Roll with the Hawks,
which incorporates mainly
board games into this years
events. Coordinator of Student
Programs and co-adviser of
the Steering Committee, Paige
Hofer said the theme is meant
to leave room for imagination.
We always try to pick a
theme thats fun but that peo-
ple can be creative with it,
Hofer said. We chose this one
to be more of a board game
type, so thats why we are do-
ing the live Clue game to em-
brace that idea rather than dice
and gambling.
Te theme was chosen afer
committee members decid-
ed that playing a live game
could be a breath of fresh air
for students. Although the
theme is inspiring new events,
like the residence hall video
game tournaments, Johnson
said some students had doubts
starting out.
I think at frst students
werent sure of the theme just
because of trying to think of
diferent ways to incorporate
the theme for their competi-
tions, but every-
one Ive talked to
recently is really
excited, Johnson
said. It lets you
expand and think
outside the box,
and have a little
bit more freedom
to do whatever
you want with
the theme versus
being very rigid
with something.
Along with new events, some
events are making a comeback
or being changed. Stuf Te
Bus is returning to Home-
coming Week afer being ab-
sent from last years events and
Murals, a traditional event
where students decorate a can-
vas, is evolving this year.
Im excited to see the
change, Hofer said. Instead
of murals were doing signs,
and they are plywood signs
so theyll be bigger out on the
lawn of Fraser.
Krehbiel said she is excit-
ed for how these new events,
like the residence halls video
game tournament event, will
get a wide range of students
involved.
I think residence hall stu-
dents probably dont hear
about Homecoming unless
theyre directly involved with
other student organizations,
Krehbiel said. We hope to
have them jump on the Home-
coming band wagon.
Hofer added that she encour-
ages all students to be involved
in the Homecoming experi-
ence, even if they only partic-
ipate in one event.
Johnson said he sees the ex-
perience as a way for students
to show their spirit for the
University.
I just want them to be able to
come out, Johnson said. Its a
week where we can all cele-
brate being Jayhawks, going to
the greatest university in the
country and be excited about
the fact that were here.
For Krehbiel, Homecoming
is not just for spirit but also
a time when a strong bond is
waiting to be made.
You experience a lot of di-
versity, and a lot of just dif-
fering views and opinions,
Krehbiel said. Its one of those
things where Homecoming
is for future Jayhawks, its
for current Jayhawks and its
for alumni. So, out of all the
events that happen throughout
the year, it is one that certain-
ly brings everyone together in
their one common bond of be-
ing a Jayhawk.

@KansanNews
1912: Kansas played its first Homecoming football game against its rival, Mizzou. The night before the game, students prepared for the game
by burning a wooden tiger. KU went on to win the game 12-3.
1921: The first Homecoming parade was held. Leon Flint, a KU journalism professor, pitched the idea of Homecoming as a way to entertain
alumni.
1925: KUs first Homecoming Queen was crowned. A new queen was crowned each year until 1969 when anti-war demonstrations convinced
the committee to recognize academic spirit. The ExCEL Award now recognizes two students for their leadership and excellence in academics.
1956: The University introduced Homecoming themes. The very first theme was Songs of Victory. In the past, Homecoming themes were
incorporated into lawn decorations by fraternities, sororities and residence halls. Today, the theme is used to coordinate Homecoming
events and celebrations.
1971: During halftime of the 1971 football game against K-State, KU unveiled a second mascot, Baby Jay. In addition, the day before the game,
13 students drove to Manhattan to change the 100-foot tall KSU letters to spell KU.
1993: After the annual Homecoming parade, the Kansas Union was rededicated. This ended a six-year, $11.5 million renovation. During the
ceremony, a time capsule was placed behind the 1993 cornerstone. The capsule includes KUs new non-smoking policy among other items.
The time capsule will be reopened in 2050.
2008: The Ambler Student Recreation Center was dedicated. Dave Ambler, the buildings namesake, was the parades Grand Marshall.

Alumni share favorite memories, current traditions

Homecoming is just the one


game on the football schedule
that we always point to and
say, OK, thats the one we
absolutely have to all attend...
MICHAEL GOFF
1976 KU graduate
HOMECOMING 2014
AMBER VANDEGRIFT
@Kansannews
Alumni Michael Gof and
Jef Underwood have not
been to every KU Home-
coming, but they have been
to enough that both of them
have memories that go back
for years.
Gof, a 1976 graduate, cur-
rently is the president of
Premiere Sports in Over-
land Park. Underwood, a
1984 graduate, works in IT
at CORE Cashless in Lenexa.
Both of these alumni make
it a goal to come back for
Homecoming every year.
Underwood said he has been
playing euphonium, a brass
horn, in the KU Alumni Band
for at least 20 years. Tis year
is the Alumni Bands 40th
anniversary, and the band
will play at the Homecoming
game and parade.
Honestly, I come back ev-
ery year for Homecoming,
Underwood said. I live in
Lawrence now we just
moved back a few years ago
afer being gone for 26 years
and I would make the trip
up every year, and the main
reason I came back was to
play in the Alumni Band.
Gof said this is the third
year he will be coming back
to Homecoming for Jayhawk
Generations, but even before
he was participating in the
event, he still came back for
Homecomings yearly.
Im already a season ticket
holder, but I love Homecom-
ing because thats probably
the one weekend of the year
that I make sure that its
clear on the calendar, and that
I can come back, Gof said.
My wife is a KU alum and
my kids are KU alum, so its
really a family ... opportunity
to get back to Lawrence and
to the campus.
Gof said he and his wife
have two children and a son-
in-law, so it can be difcult to
get everyone together for a
football game.
Homecoming is just the
one game on the football
schedule that we always point
to and say, OK, thats the one
we absolutely have to all at-
tend and tailgate together and
be there together, Gof said.
Underwood said Home-
coming is a time for him to
play in the Alumni Band and
see old friends.
I made a lot of great friend-
ships and met a lot of people
through marching band, and
I was a big band guy. A lot of
those same folks come back to
play, and its just a great time,
Underwood said. Its great to
dust of the horn afer it sits
for a year and get out and play
and have a good ol time.
Gof said one of his favorite
Homecoming memories was
when Baby Jay was revealed
for the frst time at the game
in 1971.
I just remember at halfime
that they kind of had all this
hooplah, and they rolled out
a big egg, and youre kind of
wondering what the hecks
going on, and the egg cracks,
and Baby Jay pops out, Gof
said. Now, of course ... every-
body thinks theres two Jay-
hawks, well
at one time,
there wasnt.
Tere was just
the big one.
So, it was just
fun, it was
just really
memorable.
Gof said
the game
was already
except i onal
because quar-
terback David
Jaynes was leading Kansas to
a victory against Kansas State,
but witnessing Baby Jay being
revealed for the frst time was
signifcant for him.
It certainly was an expan-
sion on the whole idea of the
Jayhawk as the schools mas-
cot, Gof said. Tat was I
think the year before I actu-
ally became a student, and so
part of that memory was just
that it kind of afrmed to me
why KU was the place I want-
ed to go.
Underwood said one of his
favorite Homecoming mem-
ories involved a foat he built
with his fraternity when he
was a student. He said the fra-
ternities and sororities each
teamed up to create foats to
be judged in a contest.
I seem to remember most
of the time, we didnt build
foats that actually moved. I
remember succinctly build-
ing a foat in the front yard,
Underwood said. I cant ex-
actly remember what the foat
exactly looked like, but it had
a fre-breathing dragon as
part of it, and we ran it pret-
ty much most of the night. I
remember my extent: I was
actually the smoke for the fre
breathing dragon, I had a fre
extinguisher up in there, and
I got inside the foat and
actually provided the efect.
Underwood is now the advi-
sor for the Delta Chi fraterni-
ty, and he is looking forward
to seeing how their foat turns
out. Gof had a similar expe-
rience his freshman year with
his fraternity.
Tere was a cyclone or a
tornado involved, and for
some reason I had to sort of
lay in the re-creation of Me-
morial Stadium. So we built
a kind of small mini stadium,
and I actually had to... lay
inside and turn on a switch
when something was sup-
posed to happen on the dis-
play, and at the time it seemed
like really a fun thing to do,
but afer about a half hour
of laying on your back it got
to be kind of tiresome, Gof
said.
Te University has changed
since Gof and Underwood
were students, but they are
glad some things have stayed
the same. Underwood said he
is glad the University revived
Hoch Auditorium because he
was there when the building
caught fre.
I happened to be visiting
the day that it burned down,
and I was really afraid [the
University] was going to just
tear the whole thing down,
but [it] did keep the front fa-
cade and then rebuilt the back
end of it, so that was nice,
Underwood said.
Underwood bought a brick
from the building when they
were sold as a fundraiser. He
played concerts in the build-
ing when he was in band as a
student and he is happy to see
it is still on campus.
Gof said he is glad the Uni-
versitys campus is still as
beautiful as it was when he
was a student.
Im glad that you know no
matter what, youre going to
come back to this pristine
campus with buildings that
have been there, you know,
longer than most of us have
lived. Teres so many mem-
ories and stories in those
buildings and on those side-
walks, Gof said. I know that
there are certainly improve-
ments being made to Jayhawk
Boulevard and whatnot ... but
to me its just the fact that
the campus was gorgeous 50
years ago, and its going to
be gorgeous on Sept. 27. You
do truly feel like youre com-
ing back home because of
the quality time that all of us
spent there.
Gof and Underwood are
both looking forward to dif-
ferent aspects of Homecom-
ing. Underwood said he is
looking forward to the pa-
rade on Massachusetts Street
and Gof is looking forward
to the game. Gof would love
the Jayhawks to win against
Texas, but he always loves
spending time at Memorial
Stadium.
For me there is no better
place to spend a fall afernoon
than on the hill in Lawrence,
Gof said. Its just a beautiful
place.

parade.
Q: What do you do to get excited for Homecoming?
A: I and another girl are the Homecoming chairs of our
sorority so we have a lot of leadership responsibilities with

Hawks. Its a lot of work but it pays of in the end.
Q: What does Homecoming mean to you?

Q: What is your favorite part about Homecoming?
A: My favorite part about Homecoming is waking up and
getting together with all my friends at the tailgate to celebrate

community can come together and get excited about being

A: To get excited about Homecoming I try and get all of my

how much being a Jayhawk means to us.

A: Homecoming to me is really all about being with the
people you love. Its about celebrating something special

game itself, it doesnt matter because in the end we all still get
to celebrate KU together.

KATE MILER
@_Kate_Miller_
Rob Riggle, KU alumnus of
the class of 1992, will lead this
years Homecoming Parade as
grand marshal.
A well-known actor and co-
median known for his work in
flms such as Te Hangover
and 21 Jump Street, Rig-
gle will lead the parade down
Massachusetts Street on Friday
at 6 p.m. Following the parade,
a pep rally will be held on
Eighth Street between Massa-
chusetts and New Hampshire
streets.
Rob has been on our short
list for marshal for several
years now, said Jennifer San-
ner, senior vice president for
communications at the KU
Alumni Association. We were
lucky that [Homecoming] ft
with his schedule He likes
to play up his KU connections
whenever he can.
Riggle has many connections
with the University. Sanner
said Riggle has been involved
with the Alumni Association
and the Presidents Club for
several years, and frequent-
ly attends KU basketball and
football games on campus.
Sanner hopes his presence
will lend even more visibility
to the activities
of Homecoming
Week.
Were hoping
he can be part of
the other activ-
ities, she said.
His KU spirit is
unquestionable.
He has a tremen-
dous desire to
stay a part of the
KU community.
Were thrilled that
he can be a part of it.
In addition to being a KU
alum, Riggle has been on

With Homecoming back
in the spotlight this week,
its time to look forward to
Jayhawk Jingles. Te show will
take place Wednesday from
6-9 p.m. at the Adams Alumni
Center.
Jayhawk Jingles is part of the
Homecoming Food Fest at
the Alumni Center this year,
and groups can earn points
for Homecoming Week by
participating in the event.
Michael Garrett, a senior
from Lenexa and a campus
outreach chair for the event,
said the participants in Jingles
bring other people from their
organizations to watch and
cheer on their friends in the
event, as well as get free food
while they are there.
You make up a seven-minute
song and skit, and groups take
that a lot of diferent ways,
Garrett said of the basic
premise of the Jingles.
He said that some people
sing the whole time, and some
people do singing and a skit,
like a musical, while others do
a medley of songs.
Tere is no lip syncing
involved because, most of the
time, the students are creating
their own lyrics. Students
ofen will take popular songs
and re-word them to relate to
Lawrence and the University.
Garrett says that groups also
usually aim to include the
theme of Homecoming into
the Jingles. Tis years theme is
Roll with the Hawks.
On Sunday night when
Homecoming Week starts, the
groups come in to audition.
Usually theyre really, really
rough, because they havent
gotten a lot of practice yet, he
said. We just
want to see if
its going to go
anywhere.
Speci f i cal l y,
Garrett and the
committee need
to know if the
groups have an
idea of what
theyre going
to do and have
songs and a
theme picked out.
On Tuesday, dress rehearsals
occur. Tere, the groups bring
in their costumes and practice
to ensure that performances
are within the time limit. Te
show takes place the next
evening.
We have a panel of alumni
judges, and they love doing it,
Garrett said.
According to the Alumni
Associations website, the
judges are selected by the
Campus Outreach Chairs and
Awards Chair.
Te judges remain a
secret until the night of the
performance, and every efort
is made to select impartial
judges not afliated with the
groups that are participating
in the event.
Te judges use certain
criteria to select the winners.
Tey judge on overall
efect and audience appeal,
group coordination and
participation, clearness and
volume, the costumes and
fnally the groups cooperation.
At the end of the night, afer
every group has gone, the
panel of judges pick their top
three choices, and those three
are chosen as the winners of
Jayhawk Jingles.
Ellarie Woolpert, a
sophomore from Topeka, took
part in the Jayhawk Jingles
with her Kappa Alpha Teta
sorority partnered with the
Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity
last year.
I got asked to do it randomly
last year, and it was a lot of
fun, Woolpert said. Id done
musicals and shows the year
before in high school, so I was
able to do the Jingles pretty
easily.
Woolpert said the Jingles
last year was also a learning
experience. Last year, her
sorority and their partners
won the event.
It was interesting because
we had to incorporate what
KU is all about, she said. So
I really learned a lot from our
skit.
Garrett said last years
Jingles only involved greek
organizations. He hopes the
show gets some other groups
because he said its fun if you
have good diversity in the
groups participating.
Tis year, the show has eight
groups signed up for the
competition.
Garrett said that because
of the Food Fest part of the
event, vendors from Lawrence,
Kansas City and other areas
come and give away free food.
Each attendee will be given
three tickets for food, with
each ticket providing one
portion from any of the
vendors.

Homecoming Week food drive seeks to fill KU bus with healthy options
MINSEON KIM
@minseonkim94
Te Stuf the Bus program,
a competition to see who can
donate the most food to fll a
KU bus, has been a popular
program during Homecom-
ing weeks in the past. With
more than 25 organizations
participating each year during
Homecoming Week, the pro-
gram donated 7,500 pounds
of nonperishable food in 2012
and 9,700 pounds in 2011
to Just Food, a food bank in
Douglas County.
Tis year, Stuf the Bus took
place in front of the KU Adams
Alumni Center from noon to 4
p.m. on Sunday.
Students say they are excited
to see the KU bus they normal-
ly ride around campus being
flled with food.
Te idea of putting every-
thing on the bus really catches
peoples attention, said Caitlin
Dunbar, a senior from Wichi-
ta and a community outreach
chair in the homecoming
steering committee.
Afer a year of absence due to
a program with United Way,
Stuf the Bus will revive and re-
start to help solve local hunger
issues in Lawrence.
Tis year we were contacted
by Just Food of Douglas Coun-
ty and [they asked] if we would
be interested in reviving Stuf
the Bus, said Jacey Krenhbiel,
coordinator of alumni pro-
grams from McPherson. Be-
cause we werent doing it last
year, they saw a drop in their
success rates of items and what
not. Its one of those situations
where we fnd a need and this
was a great partnership with
Just Food.
Because Stuf the Bus serves
Douglas County, students can
see their donations directly
benefting the community they
are living in.
It [goes to a] local [charity],
and we really try and keep it
within the community. I think
that really reaches out to more
of the student body when they
know that the food is actually
going to stay in here in Law-
rence, Kansas, and help fami-
lies here, Dunbar said.
Jeremy Farmer, the CEO of
Just Food Douglas County,
emphasizes the quality of food
being donated through the
Stuf the Bus food donation.
Farmer said food drives are
more than donating as much
food as possible.
Most of the time when we
do food drives, we get the
most unhealthy food any
food drive that we do, college
students notwithstanding,
Farmer said.
With $21.2 million being
spent on treating type 2 diabe-
tes in Douglas County, Farm-
er says that the mentality of
more food is better has to go.
Getting more out of the same
amount of money has ofen
been seen as the best option,
not only for college students
but for the country in general.
We dont want to exacerbate
one problem by virtue of try-
ing to solve another. Tere is
value in just giving thought to
the fact of what is it that I am
buying and how is this going
to afect someone elses life po-
tentially, Farmer said.
Stuf the Bus has a big impact
on Just Food Douglas County
in providing the needs of hun-
gry people. Students can make
a greater impact on the com-
munity by stufng the right
food.
Tis is a big deal for us. A
lot of people participate, a lot
of people love getting involved.
Its easy to pick up food that is
needed and to give makes a
huge impact for our clients. It
would make it an even larger
one if we are able to get the
right food in the door, Farmer
said.
Tere are fve recommended
items that can nourish chil-
dren and parents meals.
Tings that we need the
most are healthy cereals,
whole-grain pasta, canned
fruit, peanut butter, and
canned meat. Tose are the
things that our clients take the
most of, he said.
Just Food Douglas County
and the KU Alumni Associa-
tion continue to work togeth-
er to solve the hunger issue
in Lawrence.
Te Stuf
the Bus pro-
gram helps
by bringing
the commu-
nity together
to resolve this
issue.
We want
to work our-
selves out
of the job,
Farmer said.
We want to not con-
tinue just by virtue of operat-
ing to legitimize our existence
to grow. Our mission is to
holistically look at this issue
hunger not just from the
standpoint of how can we save
somebodys hunger today, but
how to save their hunger in the
long-term.
Te KU Alumni Association
looks forward to reach out be-
yond just the KU community
with the Stuf the Bus program.
We think its really about
recognizing what we have here
and how we can transfer that
beyond just our university and
classes and beyond KU, Dun-
bar said.

Local KU charity accepting donations all week
Getting out of the car at a
park in Bangladesh, Madeline
Heeren was greeted by chil-
dren giving her handpicked
fowers. Te third-year law
student from Lenexa was tak-
en aback by the gesture, as
many of these underprivileged
children barely had enough
clothes on to keep them warm.
Tese kids dont have any-
thing, so for them to be as
thoughtful as to say Were the
host, and youre coming to our
country, so we want to give
you something. Its nothing
big, but its the idea behind it,
Heeren said.
Aqmar Rahman, a third-year
law student from Lawrence,
remembers this as his favor-
ite memory from traveling to
Bangladesh.
Tese kids are probably 5 to
10 years old, and they literally
have nothing, Rahman said.
Te fact that they are so kind
and thoughtful to be able to do
something like that, thats just
one small example of the 10 or
20 times something like that
happened.
Tose Bengali children are
recipients of donations from
United Across Borders, a KU
charity that provides clothing
to underprivileged children in
Bangladesh, as well as to local
Kansas City shelters.
Heeren and Rahman, CEO
and president of UAB, respec-
tively, founded the charity af-
ter they traveled to Bangladesh
while writing a paper on the
textile and apparel industry.
I noticed there were millions
of articles of clothing in the
factory, and yet these people
on the streets when you walk
out dont have clothes, Heeren
said. So it really stuck with
me, and it just bothered me
that there was this huge dis-
crepancy, and we really want-
ed to fgure out a way to help
these people.
One of the main purpos-
es of the charity is to collect
KU-specifc apparel to donate
because the founders of the
organization share such a pas-
sion for the school they attend.
Im a huge Jayhawk fan,
Rahman said. Its unnatural
how big of a Jayhawk fan I am,
so one of my goals is to line
the streets of Bangladesh and
other parts of the world with
Jayhawk colors, so it can be
crimson and blue everywhere
in the world.
UAB will be collecting do-
nations during Homecoming
week at the Adams Alumni
Center, 1266 Oread Ave. Do-
nations will count as points
for the Greek community,
but the non-Greek commu-
nity is encouraged to donate
as well. Preferred donations
are KU T-shirts, blankets
and sweatshirts, but all gen-
tly used or new items will be
accepted.
Anyone can also purchase a
T-shirt at the Adams Alum-
ni Center from 10 a.m. to
2 p.m. all week via UABs
Buy a Shirt Give a Shirt
program. All proceeds will
contribute to creating specif-
ic shirts for Bengali children.
Camden Bender, a senior
from Shawnee, said he appre-
ciates the sense of communi-
ty throughout Homecoming
week, especially during a
charity drive.
I think its amazing to
see KU students gather to-
gether for a similar cause to
give back to the Lawrence
community, Bender said. I
think Homecoming week is
a major opportunity for stu-
dents to thank
Lawrence each
and every year.
Without the sup-
port from Law-
rence, the Uni-
versity would be
a completely dif-
ferent place.
Rahman said he
hopes to make it
easy for anyone
who wishes to
leave an impact
on the world, no matter how
small.
I think a lot of times youre
in school, you dont realize
you can make an impact in
the world, Rahman said. I
think right now were making
a little dent in the problems
of the world, and hopefully
we can continue making a
bigger dent and solve huge
problems regarding poverty
and education...if a couple
of those kids [in poverty]
can come to the University
of Kansas and get their edu-
cation, I dont think anything
would make me happier.

CAMDEN BENDER
Senior from Shawnee
Parade floats allow for competition and fun
Te marching bands, candy
and antique vehicles that are
so familiar to KU students
will be returning on Friday at
6 p.m. No parade is complete
without the addition of foats.
Te building and judging
of foats in the Homecoming
parade is a longstanding
tradition at the University.
Emma Hardwick, a senior
from Overland Park, and
Caleb Johnson, a senior from
Basehor, hold the positions of
co-parade chairs for the 2014
Homecoming season. Te
committee decided on almost
all of the goings-on of this
years Homecoming, from
the theme to the events that
occur throughout the week.
Included in the committees
responsibilities are the
registration and organization
of all foats involved in the
parade. Almost all foats
are student run, Hardwick
said. As far as competition
goes, there are two divisions
for foat judging: student
organization foats and greek
foats.
Johnson said groups can
enter the parade in four
diferent categories: walking
with a banner, a decorated
vehicle, a non-moving parts
foat, and a moving parts
foat.
Te foats are built onto a
trailer, their frame molded
from chicken wire and
completed by pomping, a
process in which small pieces
of tissue paper are attached
to fll the frame. In recent
years, moving parts have been
allowed to be incorporated
into foats.
Design dictates the time
spent on a foat, Johnson said.
Te biggest thing with
building a foat is the design,
he said. How extravagant
youre trying to be dictates
how labor intensive its going
to be. A more simple design
can be done in a couple days
with fve people working
on it. On the more detail-
oriented end, you can have
14 guys working around the
clock for fve days.
Hardwick said foat building
is as competitive as a group
makes it.
Tere are two or three
sorority and fraternity pairs
that are very gung-ho about
it, she said. Tey can get
really elaborate. Te last
two times that weve built
our foat, no one knew its
location. We said the foat is
being built by this barn and
told very few people the exact
place so competitors couldnt
see what we were building.
Johnson agrees with
Hardwick.
Float building is very
competitive, and thats part
of why its fun, Johnson said.
Youre always trying to do
better than you did last year.
Te greek division is
historically more competitive
than student organizations.
Tere arent a ton of
non-greeks that have foats
in the parade, but theyre
defnitely still participating,
Hardwick said. Some of the

more impressive foats she
has seen in the recent past
include a giant Jayhawk, a
car with someone inside of
it driving, and a foat with a
model of each of the Jayhawk
logo iterations from the past
100 years.
Hardwick said to build an
interesting foat, a group
should think outside of the
box.
Tink of something
creative, Hardwick said. A
lot of people do a Jayhawk.
A lot of people like to do a
football feld theme. Wheat is
another big one. I can assure
you that half of the foats will
have a Jayhawk on them.
Hardwick and Johnson
want to see KU students
show their passion for the
University, and that extends
itself to the Homecoming
parade and foat creation.
Id like to see everyone
turn it up a few notches,
Hardwick said. It would be
great to see everyone get a
little more competitive about
their foats.
Johnson said groups should
keep in mind that the goal of
foat building should never
be to win. He said the goal
is to create something that
makes the kids standing on
the side watching the parade
go, Wow, thats awesome.

Lawrence lights up for Homecomings Glow KU
Imagine Lawrence glowing
with school pride. Te frst
university visible from space
during Homecoming weekend
would epitomize its school
spirit and tradition. Glow KU is
a relatively new Homecoming
tradition that aims to do just
that.
In a tradition that started
four years ago, on-campus and
of-campus student groups
show their school spirit by
illuminating their households
and buildings with red, blue,
yellow and white lights. Tis
years Glow KU event kicked of
yesterday at houses throughout
Lawrence, and will continue for
the remainder of Homecoming
Week.
Jacey Krehbiel, coordinator
of Alumni Programs and
Homecoming Advisor, said
she is excited for this years
Homecoming. Whereas the
event was still developing
the last couple of years, she
is hopeful for what this years
participants create.
Tis is the third year of Glow
KU, and I think everyone has
a better understanding of the
idea of the event, she said.
Judging will begin at
7 p.m. Tuesday in two
diferent categories: one for
student organizations like
the scholarship halls and the
School of Engineering, and
another for the greek chapter
houses. Afer the judges fnish
their rounds, a frst, second and
third place will be decided.
Partners Sigma Kappa
sorority and Phi Gamma Delta
fraternity were the winners
last year with lights covering
360 degrees of their houses
under the theme Around the
World. Tis year, Sigma Kappa
is paired up with Sigma Alpha
Epsilon fraternity.
Maddie Gaughan, president
of Sigma Kappa and a senior
from Leawood, said the sorority
has been gathering lights and
sketching designs for its setup
in preparation for the event.
We are sticking close to the
theme this year, which is Roll
with the Hawks, and have many
elements of board games in our
design, she said.
Krehbiel encouraged
everyone in the community to
join in and show their school
pride, as participating groups
always give great feedback for
the event. Glow KU judges
anywhere in Lawrence, so to
be a part of the event, residents
can submit their residence to
the KU Homecoming site to be
considered in the competition.

Matt Loveland, a
sophomore from Wichita
studying finance
WHO IN YOUR FAMILY
ATTENDED KU?
ML: My great-grandfather, my
mother and my moms brother
and sister so my aunt and
uncle on her side. I had a cous-
in attend here very briefy also.
WHAT WAS IT LIKE GROWING UP
IN A FAMILY OF JAYHAWKS?
ML: I was always exposed to the
University of Kansas. I learned all
of that stuf at a very young age.
I was always watching football
games and basketball games. I
always wanted to be a Jayhawk.
Seeing all those people and the
atmosphere. Being exposed to
that at a young age made me
want to go here.
DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL
FAMILY TRADITIONS?
ML: During football games we
always have a tailgate at the top
of the hill. My grandpa always
brings Subway sandwiches and
chips. No major traditions.
WAS IT EVER AN OPTION TO
ATTEND ANOTHER COLLEGE?
ML: It was an option. I also gave
thoughts to a couple of other
schools like Oklahoma State and
Wichita State. I kind of knew I
was not going to go there, but I
at least wanted to look at other
schools.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE
PART OF KU?
ML: My favorite part is the bas-
ketball. I am in the Sigma Chi
house. My grandfather was in
Sigma Chi; he was on the bas-
ketball team here and was also
the athletic director, too. It is
cool for me to see what he has
done. It is cool to see what an
infuence he was at Allen Field-
house and also at Sigma Chi. He
has his bio and pictures and his-
tory. It is really fun to go see it
and tell people that he is like my
grandpa.
Jacob Faflick a sophomore
from Wichita studying
Accounting & Info Systems
WHO IN YOUR FAMILY
ATTENDED KU?
JF: Just my dad. His two broth-
ers went to KU also.

WHAT WAS IT LIKE GROWING UP
IN A FAMILY OF JAYHAWKS?
JF: I always have a lot of pride
in KU and knew this was where
I wanted to go to school. It was
always the highlight of the year
when basketball season came
around. 2008 was a big year
with KU and the Orange Bowl
and the national championship
game. Tat was when I was
starting high school and trying
to fgure out where I wanted to
go to school. My parents would
always dress me, my sisters and
my brothers up in Jayhawk gear.
It would not matter if we were
in Lawrence or Wichita. My sis-
ter goes to K-state now; thats all
blackmail.
DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL
FAMILY TRADITIONS?
JF: I remember our frst basket-
ball game here we played Col-
orado, and I was in third grade
and somehow we got tickets in
with the student section. So it
was my dad, my ffh-grade sis-
ter, my third-grade self and my
frst-grade brother all sitting in
the KU student section for a Big
Twelve basketball game. Tat
was the frst time we ever got to
wave the wheat and do the Rock
Chalk chant.
WAS IT EVER AN OPTION TO
ATTEND ANOTHER COLLEGE?
JF: My senior year I had to de-
cide between University of Kan-
sas and Oklahoma State Univer-
sity. What infuenced my fnal
decision was just tradition and
history. Not only in my family,
but also a great place to go and
study business.
WAS THERE ANY FAMILY
PRESSURE TO ATTEND ANOTHER
SCHOOL?
JF: No my dad was very
open to me going wherever I
thought ft best. I know that
when I told him I was going
to KU he was really happy the
tradition would be carried on
through me especially with an
older sister at K-State. Its cool,
and I think he is into kind of
sentimental stuf like this, but
we both think its cool that we
walked on the same campus
and have classes in the same
buildings. Even though we
studied diferent things we will
still have that connection of KU.
Sara Pickert, a freshman
from Wichita and her father,
Bill Pickert from Wichita, an
alumni who serves on the ad-
visory board of the KU School
of Business.
WHO IN YOUR FAMILY
ATTENDED KU?
BP: My father attended his
freshman year of college at KU,
and he enjoyed it. We grew up
loving KU and enjoying the
KU traditions.
WHAT WAS IT LIKE GROWING UP
IN A FAMILY OF JAYHAWKS?
SP: Growing up as a Jayhawk
was interesting because when
I was little we would come to
all the games and have fun and
tailgate. As I got older, I got re-
ally pressured into becoming
a Jayhawk myself and going to
college here. I would say that
it was fun just because of the
history of KU and how much
my parents loved it and being
able to see that. I feel like that
is something that I wanted in
college.
DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL
FAMILY TRADITIONS?
SP: We tailgate together; we
also drive two hours to go to
the basketball games and stuf.
We usually eat at Salty Iguana,
its really good.
BP: We come to a lot of basket-
ball games and a lot of football
games but, I would not say we
have any real traditions. Except,
we have a big rock in our front
yard its got a big Jayhawk on
it. So we kind of wear it on our
sleeves.
WAS IT EVER AN OPTION TO
ATTEND ANOTHER COLLEGE?
SP: Oh yeah, for sure. My old-
est sister went to UT; my other
sister went to K-State. But, once
they got me going to KU, they
were like youre my favorite
daughter. All this stuf. I dont
know, its exciting and they are
excited for me I think too.
WAS THERE EVER ANY FAMILY
PRESSURE TO ATTEND
ANOTHER SCHOOL?
BP: No, not at all. You have to
make your own decision. It was
an obvious choice for me in
terms of what I was looking for
in the quality of the program
and the quality of the Uni-
versity. I have enjoyed staying
involved in the University in
the School of Business and my
involvement there. Its a great
place.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART
OF KU?
SP: Waving the wheat is my fa-
vorite tradition. Its awesome;
its a good time.
HOW IS IT HAVING YOUR
DAUGHTER AT KU?
BP: Very satisfying. I am very
happy to have her here, she is
really enjoying it. Just loves the
campus. We have been coming
up here for years going to games.
I am just so happy she is part of
that and something that we can
share together. It is something
we will always be able to share
so I am excited for her.

Chalk n Rock does sound
like a parody of KU chant
Rock Chalk Jayhawk, but
the event itself shows a whole
diferent concept. Tis annual
Homecoming event features
a variety of student groups
drawing a selected design with
chalk at their pre-assigned
square on Wescoe Beach. Te
design displays KUs Home-
coming theme each year. For
this years theme, the home-
coming committee has select-
ed Roll with the Hawks.
Te event focuses as a fun
and recreational event, but it
ofen turns into a competi-
tion among student groups. In
2013, with the theme of Jay-
hawks around the World, Al-
pha Gamma Delta and Alpha
Epsilon Pi took frst place in
the Greek Life group.
Its always difcult because
theres so much to do in such a
short amount of time, said Ju-
lie Ferrell, a junior from Tulsa,
Okla., and Homecoming coor-
dinator for Alpha Gamma Del-
ta. We try to be as prepared as
possible with lots of chalk and
our design, then set as many
people as we can on flling in
the outline we draw out.
Ferrell said she specifcal-
ly searches for artistic people
within her sorority to design
their sketch. To play along
with the theme this year, Al-
pha Gamma Deltas design is
inspired by the Hungry, Hun-
gry Hippos game.
Our design is more along
the lines of Hungry, Hungry
Hawks, she said. Te people
who designed it are all artistic
and have the ability to color in
the lines.
Jen Jury, a junior from Kan-
sas City, Mo., and the president
of Kappa Delta, remembers
Chalk n Rock as a fun way to
connect with other groups. She
explained that partnering up
with artistic houses makes the
event easier on her group, as
her sorority doesnt specifcally
search out artistic members to
draw the designs.
We rally up a bunch of dif-
ferent people, she said. It was
really fun that our partners last
year were really artistic, she
said.
Tis year, her sorority plans
on incorporating the theme as
best as possible.
Were going to follow the
theme by doing diferent kinds
of board games for activities,
she said. Te most difcult
part is sketching it out on the
actual sidewalks. Once its
sketched out its easy to fll in.
While chalk dust may act as
a deterrent for some, Ferrell is
excited to get to work on her
sororitys design.
Tis is my frst year as a
chair, she said. I get to par-
ticipate more in general. Im
excited to get in and get dirty
coloring in on Wescoe.

Campus turned into a giant


game board Sunday as a part
of this years Homecoming.
Te KU Alumni Association
hosted the event in a ftting
start to the week themed Roll
with the Hawks.
Te event, which turned the
University campus into the
set of the classic who dun-
nit? game, took place last
night. Te game began at Wes-
coe Hall and students spread
around campus in search of
the proper suspects.
Te Alumni Association
thought a University-wide
competition would be a good
way for current students and
alumni to get involved and
start of Homecoming Week,
said Jacey Krehbiel, alumni
programs director.
Te rules followed the tra-
ditional rules for a game of
Clue with some slight crim-
son and blue diferences. First,
instead of the usual suspects,
teams were selected from var-
ious professors and deans of
KU departments and schools.
Participants also had to select
which of the campus buildings
various crimes took place in
everywhere from Fraser to the
Daisy Hill.
Originally we had difculty
determining how the teams
should be arranged, Krehbiel
said. We did not want some
organizations to be too large
and have an unfair advantage
of having more players solving
the clues.
Many students took a wide
variety of strategies for the
event. Some took advantage of
an on-foot method to traverse
campus. However, one team
from Beta Upsilon Chi took
a diferent approach going
through campus on bicycles.
We all fgured that bikes
would make the experience
much easier, said Nate Smith,
a senior from Wichita and a
member of Beta Upsilon Chi.
Te excitement was not only
in the strategy of transporta-
tion but how groups were go-
ing to attack solving the clues
themselves. However, each
team was there for the same
reason.
Plain and simple: we are all
here to win and we are going
to attack each clue with all of
our eforts, Jeremy Goldberg,
a sophomore from Calabasis,
said during the event. We are
going to do whatever it is go-
ing to take to win.
