popular.” This year the UNI foot-ball team will face Drake University at 4 p.m. Saturday in the UNI-Dome.

Other Saturday events include the Family Feast Tailgate at the Rialto Dining Center from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and a performance by the Dean of Juggling at 1:30 p.m. inside Maucker Union.

The four university col-leges are also hosting activi-ties Saturday. The College of Education is offering tours and will provide information about Camp Adventure Youth Services, an educational orga-nization that provides a wide array of opportunities to serve children and youth.

“I’m really excited to see the College of Education because that is my major,” said senior elementary educa-tion major Ashli Fanning.

The College of Humanities, Arts and Sciences arranged mini-sumo robotics demon-strations from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and two magic shows, one at 11 a.m. and the other at 1 p.m.

The Wellness Recreation Center is open various hours all weekend. Family mem-bers can take advantage of the leisure and lap pools, the racquetball courts, the rock climbing wall and more. However, UNI students must accompany family members to the WRC.

The University of Northern Iowa associate pro-vost for international pro-grams and his counterpart, assistant vice president of the office of international affairs of Kyungpook University in South Korea, submitted a 300-page grant proposal that would help support the inter-nationalization of science, technology, engineering and mathematics education. In May, Craig Klafter of UNI and Lorne Hwang submitted the proposal, which passed in July.

“The hope of the project is ... that by working together between the two universities on STEM education, we can really raise the bar in terms of the quality of what is offered in the U.S. and in Korea and be a model for the rest of the world,” said Klafter.

The $3 million grant from the National Research Foundation of Korea will allow a minimum of 60 stu-dents over the course of 12 years to come to UNI and study STEM education, according to a press release. The grant money will pay for the students’ non-resident tuition while the students will pay for their own room and board expenses.

This program provides

students a dual-degree oppor-tunity. Participating students graduate with teaching quali-fications from UNI and KNU.

“In the best of circum-stances the student will be able to earn two bachelor’s degrees in two years,” Klafter said.

On top of the double degrees, students from KNU will receive teacher licensure not only in Korea, but also in Iowa. These students need to complete and pass Praxis I and II, said Klafter.

Klafter expects the first students will arrive at UNI in spring 2015.

UNI students may also attend KNU for one year where they will study as exchange students.

According to the U.S. News and World Report and the Princeton Review, UNI is consistently ranked as one of the best comprehensive universities in the U.S., and is a nationally-recognized leader in STEM education. KNU is ranked among the top universities in the world by Academic Ranking of World Universities and Times Higher Education.

“KNU has been designated as one of the three universi-ties in Korea considered to have great expertise in STEM education,” said Klafter. “We hope they can enrich our pro-grams.”

SEPTEMBER 6, 2013 | NORTHERN-IOWAN.ORG | VOLUME 110, ISSUE 3

A few weeks ago, thousands of teenagers across the country packed up their belongings, said goodbye to friends and family and moved into the wonderful world of college. And while most didn’t know what to expect, they were excited about the possibilities of the new academic year.

At the University of Northern Iowa, Mother Nature had a surprise for them and the rest of campus in the form of soul-crushing heat. During the first week of classes, temperatures hit over 90 degrees in the shade. Temperatures in open sunlight hit triple digits. Every student sought ways to beat the heat, but for the newly installed members of the UNI student body, there was no escape.

Of the 11 residence halls on campus, only two feature air conditioning, and none of these are halls in which underclassmen are allowed to live. Since underclassmen don’t typically live off campus, this means they were trapped in these dorms with no option but to suffer through the heat.

This situation is unacceptable on a number of levels beyond the superficial complaints of youngsters. The old school thought that hardship builds character does not apply in this circumstance.

Temperatures inside the dorms reached over 90 degrees each evening. According to the Mayo Clinic, prolonged exposure to this

environment risks heat stroke and heat exhaustion. The Department of Residence, in order to counter this risk, recommended students congregate in common areas as much as possible, which are the only air-conditioned areas of the dorm buildings.

This solution fails on two levels. First, as a university, the school should do everything in its power to ensure students can function and study effectively. Putting every student on a particular floor in the common area destroys this aim because groups are distracting. The only alternative is for students to study in their rooms, but it’s laughable to think living in a sauna would be conductive to good study habits. Secondly, is it really right to ask students to choose between their privacy and their health? This question must be asked, and unfortunately, the university is answering it — but not in a good way.

I’m not unrealistic. I know there is only so much money in the budget, and the installation of air

conditioning would be a massive cost for a situation which only comes into play a few days during the school year. It is also true that although students felt massive discomfort, no heat related medical emergencies were reported this past week.

However, this is not an excuse. One heat-related emergency

exposes the university to massive financial risk, especially if it is argued the university knew this was a problem before the incident occurred. I propose a different solution. It is currently university policy to allow any student showing a documented need for an air conditioning window unit to have one installed in their room. It would be a simple matter to expand the policy to include any individual who is willing to pay for the equipment. I would be happy to pay for the installation of my own air-conditioning unit if I lived in a dorm, and I suspect many other students would as well. This solution would resolve all the issues I raised at a minimal cost to the university.

The past week’s incredible heat wave was a rude welcome to campus. But perhaps it also served as a wake up-call to the university, inspiring it to take another look at its policies regarding the installation of air conditioners in the dormitories. Only through a significant and critical look at these policies, and subsequent alteration of them, can we ensure the continued health and peace of mind of the entire student body.

The dog days of UNI

ThinkstockLast week, the University of Northern Iowa and the state of Iowa faced record high temperatures. A heat advisory was in place earlier last week for the city of Cedar Falls.

Craving for diversity

While searching for colleges, students normally consider tuition, size, living conditions, academic interests and possibly the male to female student ratio. However, there is another aspect many stu-dents are concerned with today: the diversity of the student popu-lation.

When I transferred to the University of Northern Iowa from Loras College, the diversity of the student population was not some-thing I considered. I just wanted a bigger school with a better music program than my previous college. UNI certainly satisfied my person-al requirements. However, when I thought about attending a bigger school, I envisioned a multicultur-al community.

Two college search engines, www.collegefactual.com and www.collegeprowler.com, report that the UNI student population is roughly 88 percent Caucasian, 3 percent African-American, 2 per-cent Hispanic, 1 percent Asian and 3 percent non-resident alien. The statistics speak for themselves; UNI does not have an ethnically diverse student population.

Scholars argue a multicultural student body can enhance educa-tion.

“In an increasingly diverse country that is inextricably con-nected to a larger ‘global’ com-munity, we must reconsider what it now means to be an active and productive member of society. As colleges and universities have rec-ognized and responded to these trends, their mission statements have undergone a process of rath-er dramatic transformation,” said Jeffrey Milem, former director of the provost’s research collaborative at the University of Maryland, a research program that studies how students’ experiences with diver-sity influence a range of learning outcomes.

This mission statement trans-formation is evident in UNI President William Rudd’s written address to the school last week.

“At UNI, we place high value on education that encourages a diver-sity of ideas and increases stu-dents’ depth of intellectual inquiry and discovery,” Ruud said.

The best way to encourage a “diversity of ideas” is to have a multicultural student population. Although UNI seems to realize the importance of having a stu-dent population with diversity in ethnicity, religion and sexual ori-entation, the school needs to move past understanding and take action towards making our school a more multicultural community.

This semester I am taking mul-ticultural literature, and I can only imagine the difference more diverse classes would make on discussions.

An Iowan and a Hungarian have partnered to create a percussion duo showcasing the partnership of these two cultures. Matthew Andreini, a pro-fessor at the University of Northern Iowa, teamed up with Gabor Palotas, who teaches at the Kodaly School in Kecskemet, Hungary. The duo collaborated with six different composers, three of whom are from Iowa and three of whom are from Hungary, to allow a setup of six compositions, which Andreini thought would make a “full program.” Their most recent event took place in the Gallagher-Bluedorn Performing Arts Center in Davis Hall at 8 p.m. on Aug. 29. The light-ing was simple, allowing the instruments and performers to be the focus of the show. “(The concert) has a wide variety of music and I think that there’s something for everybody. Maybe not every piece is for everybody, but somebody at every venue likes something and it’s always something different,” said Andreini. Each composer was told to aim for a specific length for their piece and what instruments would most likely be at the performers’

disposal. Besides those prior requirements they each had full rein to express them-selves and reflect them-selves in their piece. This was seen in Gyula Csapo’s piece “Adagietto,” which was written after his 3-year-old daughter died in a car acci-dent. His composition used the marimba and twinkling bells to create the emotions he was trying to portray. Many of the composers used different instruments and techniques to create a piece that would reflect themselves. Two of the Iowan composers even came to see their work come to life. Sandy Nordahl, techni-cal services director at the GBPAC, used a computer to amplify and delay the bell sounds in his work. He said he felt like a “proud papa” seeing his work per-formed. The other Iowan who attended was Matthew Coley, a professor at Iowa State University, who used a bass drum and cymbals in his piece. The third Iowan com-poser, UNI graduate Jeffrey Dennis Smith, was not in attendance. Besides Csapo, there were two other Hungarian compos-ers: Miklos Maros and Csaba Zoltan Marjan. Maros is currently living in Stockholm, Sweden, work-

ing at the Royal Academy of Music. Andreini and Palotas went to the University of Debrecen in Hungary with Marjan. Sarah Oldre from Waterloo, who has played with Andreini before, said that it was “fun to listen for the differences (in the pieces).” She said it was hard to pick out which was Iowan and which was Hungarian. The Iowa/Hungary Project has been in the making for a year and a half. The performers toured

in Hungary and did three shows before coming to Iowa for the U.S. premiere at UNI with two more shows next week. One will be in Burlington, Iowa, and the other at Iowa State University. “We are trying to engage a community, trying to engage a local audience (to get) involved in the project . . . to get exposure for this music. We want to have exposure of Iowan composers’ music and Hungarian composers’ music because (of the) cul-

ture of these places,” said Andreini. “Because I think that in Iowa, for example, it’s hard to find something of a Hungarian culture and to learn about that, and in Hungary it’d be hard to find something about Iowa.”

Northern Iowa’s campus, is neither mandatory to attend nor cringeworthy, and it fea-tures many works of pot-tery from collector Lawrence Auld. “We chose 65 ceramic pieces for the show, and they range from tiny bud vases to large pitchers and plates, said gallery director Darrell Taylor. “It’s a wide range and includes representations of many techniques like raku and salt firing as well as flambé glazing and wood firing.” The display opened Aug. 26 and closes Sept. 21. At the opening ceremony on Sept. 3, Taylor and co-curator JoAnn Schnabel gave short lectures about the pieces to a crowd of about 60 people. “These are utilitarian pieces of property that really come alive with use. Whether it’s pouring out of a pitcher or drinking out of a mug or having vases with flowers in them, you have to bring them back to a domestic situation and think about them living another life,” said Schnabel. Many of the pieces were filled with flowers to give the viewers a glimpse of the more domestic life mentioned by Professor Schnabel.

The domestic aspect of the pottery was no accident, as most of the works were influenced by a style of pot-tery known as The Seagrove Tradition. Taylor said The Seagrove Tradition was about east coast potters making func-tional pots. “It’s all about functional works of art that you use everyday and that has grown into an idea where the Seagrove artists are paying attention to mainly Asian art-ists — pottery from China, Korea and Japan. They’re tak-ing these simple forms and simple decorations, nothing fussy, all very elegant,” said Taylor. Some of the examples of the tradition were made using the raku kiln, a Japanese process in which pieces are removed from the kiln at their maximum temperature and decorated by putting marks in the malleable pots using things like horse hair. Examples of this process can be found in the gallery. Both veterans and new-comers found something they enjoyed in the gallery. “It’s beautiful. This is our first time in the gallery and it’s absolutely gorgeous. Everyone should come down here,” said sophomore art

major Mariah Coffey. “This collection’s very well done. I think (Taylor) did a great job putting all the pieces together to create a story line,” said gallery guard and senior communications major Chris Ross. “It’s not my favorite; On a creativity level it’s not the most exciting because it’s usable pottery, but in its own sense it’s really well defined.” The exhibit had no trouble finding art to display. Auld, a 1955 UNI graduate, donat-ed nearly 160 works for the exhibit and plans on giving more. “We had to whittle it down to about 65 shining works of art,” said Taylor. The donation came at a perfect time for Taylor. “This gift by Dr. Auld is the largest and most significant gift of ceramics to the UNI Permanent Art Collection in about 50 years. We are very happy and extremely proud that the collection has been enhanced in this way,” said Taylor.

Hager said the construc-tion is currently in the last phase. “Carpet, paint and other finishing work, along with outside work, is being addressed,” said Hager. “The new layout of the building provides for collaboration spaces between faculty in dif-ferent disciplines, as well as interaction spaces with fac-ulty and students.” For Joey Anderson, sopho-more marketing major, the Bartlett Hall construction impedes his travels through campus. “It makes it difficult to take the quickest route through campus, but other than that I don’t mind it,” said Anderson. “The construction isn’t in my way or inconveniencing me at all, but I do think it’s a bit of an eyesore,” said Phillip Cowan, sophomore account-ing and finance major. Cowan said the construction zone doesn’t look much different than it did one year ago when he first visited UNI. Jarrod Lister, sophomore psychology major, believes the renovations are a positive thing. “I don’t think it’s a prob-lem. They’re doing work to improve the campus and in the end it will be worth the mess we see now,” said Lister.

Panther stateUNI defeats ISU 28-20 in Ames

RILEY UBBENSports Writer

JACINDA RUGGLES/Northern IowanDeiondre’ Hall (center) and his UNI teammates celebrate their victory over Iowa State on Saturday.

The University of Northern Iowa football team has been close before. First it was a one-point loss to Iowa State University in 2011. Then it was two near-wins against the University of Wisconsin and the University of Iowa last year. This season, UNI notched its first win against a Football Bowl Subdivision team since 2007 as they beat ISU 28-20 in Ames, Iowa. The Panthers (1-0) were led by redshirt junior running back David Johnson’s 199 yards rush-ing, 41 yards receiving and 4 total touchdowns. Johnson’s four touchdowns tied UNI’s record for most touchdowns in a game. The Panthers offense set the tone early with a touch-down-scoring drive that took just over two minutes off the clock and was capped off with a 37-yard touchdown run from Johnson. The Cyclones put together a quick strike of their own when redshirt sophomore quarterback Sam Richardson hit a wide-open redshirt senior Justin Coleman on a 59-yard score. “(Iowa State) got the up-tempo going on us,” said UNI head coach Mark Farley. “They took advantage of it. We were slow to make the adjustment and our eyes dropped.” Richardson finished the night with 242 yards pass-ing and two touchdowns while adding 74 yards on the ground. Coleman was the leading receiver for the Cyclones with 103 yards and a touchdown. The Panthers scored on their next two possessions – both being Johnson touch-

downs. The first came from redshirt sophomore Sawyer Kollmorgen on a nine-yard touchdown pass and the sec-ond from a Johnson 27-yard touchdown run to put the Panthers up 21-7 midway through the second quarter. UNI took a 21-14 lead head-ing into halftime. Kollmorgen finished the night with 218 passing yards and two touchdowns while completing 21 passes on 28 attempts. The first turnover of the game was committed by sophomore Evan Williams as he fumbled the ball on the Panther 20-yard line with 5:35 left in the third quarter. The Panther defense kept the Cyclones out of the endzone and held them to a field goal that cut the UNI lead to just one point. “The turning point was when we fumbled and the crowd came back into it,” said Farley. “If they would have stuck the ball in (the endzone) that place would have erupt-ed.” UNI bounced back when Johnson found the endzone for his final touchdown of the

night to give the Panthers a 28-20 lead with 13:35 remain-ing in the game. The most crucial drive for the Panthers started at their own 20-yard line with 5:50 left on the game clock. Johnson recovered his own fumble at the ISU 49 yard line with 3:18 remaining, and the Cyclones were called for a 15-yard unsportsmanlike con-duct penalty that moved the ball to the ISU 36-yard line. Farley and his staff had to decide to go for the first down on fourth and one from the ISU 26-yard line or let the experienced senior place kick-er Tyler Sievertsen attempt the 43-yard field goal with 2:32 left on the clock. “I was trying to decide that on first, second and third down,” said Farley. “I knew we were within his range. But man, I was not going to let it get away down here.” The Panthers decision to go for it proved to be the cor-rect call as Johnson bounced to the outside for a gain of 22 yards. But the game was not quite over yet. Johnson commit-ted his only mistake of the

night as he fumbled the ball at the one-yard line with 1:44 remaining in the game. “I know I should have had

the ball with two hands,” said Johnson. “I was carrying it with one (hand) with one yard to go.” The Panther defense came through in the clutch and forced the Cyclones into a turnover on downs follow-ing the fumble. UNI sacked Richardson six times for an accumulated loss of 36 yards on the night. The Panthers will play their home opener against the Drake University Bulldogs on Saturday, Sept. 7 at 4 p.m.

I knew we were within (field goal) range. But man, I was not going to let it get away down here.

UNI drops two in Utah

BEN LLOYDSports Writer

The weekend started out on an optimistic note for the University of Northern Iowa volleyball team at the Utah Classic in Salt Lake City. Their bright future was soon dimmed by the University of Utah and Utah State University as they defeated the Panthers. After dropping two of their three matches, the Panthers start the season with a record of 1-2. On Aug. 30 the Panthers were too much for Fairfield University as they won the first three sets of the match, 25-17, 25-17 and 25-19. In the match, upperclassmen Macy Ubben, Brittney Nelson and Eryca Hingtgen led the Panthers. Ubben and Nelson contributed with 11 kills apiece and Hingtgen close-ly followed with 10 more of her own. Sophomore Kinsey Caldwell did most of the setup work with 43 assists. Freshman Amie Held helped the Panthers start out the 2013 season with a win by adding 16 digs. Saturday was a test of endurance and efficiency as the Panthers were dealt two games. In the first game, the Panthers took on the Utah State Aggies, who had just come off a tough loss to the host school, Utah University, the night before. UNI lost the first set 18-25 but came back strong in the second set win-ning big, 25-9. After the beat down in set two the Aggies got back in the driver’s seat and took the victory, winning the third set 19-25 and the fourth set 23-25. Although the loss was the Panthers’ first of the year, it was met with high notes for some star players. Sophomore Courtney Kintzel scored a career-high 20 kills despite the defeat. Ubben also had a career performance stat wise with a career-high 22 digs. The Panthers tried to take as many positives as they could head-ing into match three against a so-far undefeated Utah. The Panthers came out fir-ing against the Utes, captur-ing a victory. The Utes fired right back though and took the next three sets, 19-25, 18-25 and 18-25, ultimate-ly winning the match. The Panthers managed to place third overall in the tourna-ment, landing Kintzel and Caldwell on the all-tourna-ment team.
