Beer and bowling.
A little more than 10 years ago,
the two activities used to be syn-
onymous when one thought of
Jaybowl.
Now, the Senate coalition Re-
new KU wants to bring the two
activities back together.
Bringing beer back to the Jay-
bowl is one of Renew KU’s plat-
form issues for the upcoming Stu-
dent Senate elections.
Presidential candidate Casey
Briner and vice-presidential can-
didate Josh Dean said a plaque in
the Kansas Union with the phrase
“With the fondest hopes beer will
return to the Union” inspired the
platform.
“It’d be a win-win for every-
body,” Briner said. “And it’s also
feasible.”
Jaybowl bowling lanes, located
on level one of the Union, served
alcohol until 1998 when an of-
campus accident involving two
students prompted then-chancel-
lor Robert Hemenway to prohibit
the sale of alcohol on campus.
A proposal to reinstate the
serving of beer in Jaybowl and the
Hawks Nest in 2006 passed the
Memorial Corporation Board but
was not approved by the Univer-
sity administration.
Briner, a junior from Flower
Mound, Texas, said with a difer-
ent provost and administration it
is time to try again.
Renew KU will use the same
proposal from 2006 for their re-
quest.
According to the proposal, the
Jaybowl would provide service
from 2 to 10 p.m daily with two to
three standard brands of 3.2 beer
on tap. Food would be served the
entire time and students and cus-
tomers would be limited to two
drinks.
Students and customers 21 and
older would wear wristbands and
be brandished with fuorescent ink
stamps to distinguish themselves
from others when drinking.
Dean, a sophomore from Over-
land Park, said the drink limit,
lack of pitchers and drink specials
would discourage students from
drinking in excess.
Burton Gepford, manager of
Jaybowl, said his only concern
with the sale of beer would be
safety but added that that is with
any establishment.
“It would defnitely bring more
trafc,” Gepford said. “Just need
someone to advocate for it.”
Briner and Dean said Union ad-
ministrators and board members
appear receptive to the concept.
David Mucci, the director of
the Union, said given the history
of beer on campus the request is
not an inappropriate one.
“I don’t think it’s unreasonable,”
Mucci said. “But it would have to
go through a process and the nec-
essary levels of approval.”
Dean said neither him nor Bri-
ner have spoken with University
administrators or provost Jefrey
Vitter yet because he doesn’t feel
it is their place to do so until
elected.
Justin Hitt, a junior from Shaw-
nee and Renew KU campaign
manager, said if approved beer
could be served next year.
Briner said the service would
also bring more students to the
Union and make it a greater hub
on campus. Briner said Renew KU
is not trying to promote underage
drinking but instead moderation
and safety.
Dean said the image he thinks
the University needs to portray is
one of having a realistic and safe
approach to alcohol.
“I don’t think its possible or
realistic to portray no alcohol on
campus,” Dean said. “What we can
do is portray teaching students of
age to drink in a responsible man-
ner and removing the dangerous
environment.”

Five hundred sixty volunteers.
Tousands of dollars in supplies.
One full work day consisting of
more than 100 projects.
It is just the University of Kan-
sas’ way of saying “Tank You”
to the Lawrence community, said
Kris Velasco, co-director of Te
Big Event.
“Living with KU students can be
a little rough,” he said. “Tis is our
one service back to you.”
According to its website, Turs-
day’s Big Event is “a service project
designed to bring the University’s
community closer together to the
larger community of Lawrence.”
It originally started at Texas
A&M University 28 years ago.
Tis year’s event is the frst at the
Kansas. Students and faculty help
Lawrence residents with various
jobs, including gardening, clean-
ing yards and cleaning gutters.
Velasco said this project was
unique because all Lawrence resi-
dents, barring students, were eli-
gible to receive help free of charge.
“One of the biggest aspects that’s
been hard is telling Lawrence resi-
dents this is free,” he said. “Tere is
no catch; it’s a completely free ser-
vice for anyone who wants it.”
Velasco said another challenge
was recruiting volunteers. He said
the event at Texas A&M boasts
15,000 volunteers. Next year, his
goal is 2,000, quadrupling this
year’s turnout. He said he expects
Te Big Event to be an annual
project at the University.
And afer volunteers are done
working, the Louisana Street Band
and Fourth of July will play a free
concert in the Ballroom of the
Kansas Union. Te concert begins
at 7 p.m.

BY IAN CUMMINGs
[email protected]

Greg Mortenson spoke to
an audience of several hun-
dred people at the Lied Cen-
ter Wednesday night about his
work building schools in Paki-
stan and Afghanistan.
Te lecture was organized
by the Center for Community
Outreach to kick of its “Into the
Streets Week” series of events
promoting volunteer work
and awareness of international
problems such as homelessness
and natural disaster relief.
Mortenson, author of New
York Times bestseller “Tree
Cups of Tea,” has been reaching
out to communities in remote
parts of Pakistan and Afghani-
stan for 18 years as co-founder
of the Central Asia Institute,
which helps communities build
schools. His foundation espe-
cially promotes schools for the
girls in these communities who
have lacked education for many
years.
“Education has to be our top
national and international pri-
ority,” Mortenson said. “In par-
ticular, education for girls.”
Of the 120 million chil-
dren not in school around the
world, Mortenson said, 78 mil-
lion are female. More than 165
schools built by his foundation
now serve more than 68,000

Former employee
gets prison time
A federal judge in Wichita
sentenced former kansas Athlet-
ics employee kassie Liebsch to 37
months in prison for her part in a
conspiracy for the illegal sale for
tickets, a spokesman confrmed
Wednesday.
Liebsch pleaded guilty, along
with six other codefendants in
the case, personally admitting to
receiving $100,000. In addition
to time in prison, Liebsch was
ordered to pay $1.2 million in
restitution to the university of
kansas and $79,000 to the Inter-
nal revenue service as well as
turn over her 2008 toyota camry
to authorities.
Liebsch began working for
kansas Athletics as a freshman in
2001. she was hired full-time as
a systems analyst in the tickets
ofce by fellow codefendant
charlette Blubaugh in 2005.
According to prosecutors,
Liebsch gave tickets to codefen-
dants rodney dale Jones and Ben
kirtland under Blubaugh’s direc-
tion, knowing Jones and kirtland
were giving them to third parties
and converting the profts to
money orders to pocket person-
ally without detection. In a media
release from Jim cross, public
afairs ofcer for the u.s. Attorney
in the district of kansas, prosecu-
tors also said the parties involved
hid money and interaction with
third parties from the university
and the ncAA.
Jones is set for sentencing
tomorrow. he is expected to re-
ceive 46 months in federal prison.
Blubaugh and her husband, tom,
are set for sentencing April 14
and kirtland may 12.
two more former employees,
Brandon simmons and Jason
Jefries, have been sentenced to
probation and several thousand
dollars in resitition each for failing
to report the felonies of the other
codefendants.

From orientation to graduation,
the University works to instill in
students its drug and alcohol policy.
No drinking on campus, in dorms
or at University events. Violators
can be subject to rehab courses,
sanctions and expulsion.
Yet attend a departmental hon-
ors dinner at the Kansas Union, an
art show at the Spencer Museum
of Art or sit in the scholarship
suite at Memorial Stadium and you
will see that the booze often flows.
David Mucci, director of Kansas
Memorial Unions, said that KU
catering served alcohol on campus
163 times last year.
Initially there appears to be a
contradiction between University
policy and action. However, this is
not the case. The University actu-
ally allows alcohol consumption
on campus, but only “under special
circumstances.”
Before anyone gets an idea about
throwing a “rager” on Wescoe
Beach, be warned. These special
circumstances rarely include stu-
dent groups or those without a
proper reason for serving alcohol.
“You can’t just say ‘I think I will
have a party,’” Todd Cohen, direc-
tor of University Relations, said.
“There is control so you don’t have
a potential situation spin out of
control. You have to make sure you
maintain a safe campus environ-
ment.”
University controls are extensive.
University officials only tolerate
alcohol consumption at fundrais-
ing events or official University
business. Location is also an issue.
While alcohol may be served in
many buildings on campus, it may
not be served at events located in
classrooms or held within student
housing. Only events held by uni-
versity units or affiliated organiza-
tions are eligible to request alcohol
at events.
To gain permission, groups must
submit a detailed form describing
the event and its attendees to the
Provost’s office at least two weeks
before the event.
After submission, the request
goes to the KU Memorial Unions
officials for approval. If officials see
red flags on the form, such as the
possibility of minors attending the
event, the form is usually rejected.
“We would go back to work with
the department to make sure they
are in compliance with the policy,”
Mucci said.
Mucci added that if a group
event includes minors, such as an
undergraduate recognition dinner,
the minors would have to be clearly
identified.
Mucci said after KU Memorial
Union’s approval, the request goes
to Provost’s office. If the Provost
approves the request, the chancel-
lor signs it and finally alcohol can
be served at the event.
After receiving the OK on the
alcohol request, the group host-
ing must provide the alcohol for
University catering to serve. That
allows the University to monitor
underage drinking and alcohol
abuse.
“The intent of the policy really is
to have a central monitoring con-
trol source for alcohol service on
campus,” Mucci said. “It’s an intel-
ligent way of doing things.”

University keeps fow of booze on campus restricted
Google chooses Kansas as frst to get ultra-fast broadband
TEcHNoLogY
ASSociATeD PReSS
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — After
seeing Facebook pleas and flash
mobs, and even cities temporarily
renaming themselves “Google,” the
search engine giant said Wednesday
it has chosen Kansas City, Kan., as
the first place that will get its new
ultra-fast broadband network.
Google announced that the city
would be the inaugural site for its
“Fiber for Communities” program,
which it says will be capable of
delivering Internet access more
than 100 times faster than the home
broadband connections provided
by phone and cable companies
across the U.S.
The company envisions systems
that will let consumers to down-
load a high-definition, full-length
feature film in less than five min-
utes, allow rural health clinics to
send 3-D medical images over the
Internet and let students collaborate
with classmates around the world
while watching live 3-D video of a
university lecture.
Google’s service, which will pro-
vide Internet connections of one
gigabit per second to as many as
500,000 people, will be offered in
early 2012 while the company looks
at other communities across the
country.
More than 1,100 cities had made
bids to become a test site for the
company’s fiber-optic network, try-
ing to catch Google’s attention and
show their enthusiasm.
Milo Medin, Google’s vice
president for access services, said
Kansas City, Kan., was selected in
part because of its solid network
infrastructure and because the pro-
gram would have an impact on the
community, one of the poorest in
the state.
“We believe gigabit broadband
can be leveraged for economic
development and educational gain,
both of which are vital in the global
economy that we live in today,’”
Medin said. “We want to be able to
build strong relationships and part-
nerships with local government and
communities so that we can work
together to use technology in a new
way to make a city a better place to
live in, a better place to work in, a
better place to learn in.”
The company’s deadline for city
governments and citizens to express
interest in attracting Google passed
in March 2010. Many cities used
stunts and gimmickry to get the
company’s attention and show inter-
est in the experimental network.
Topeka informally renamed itself
“Google, Kansas.” Members of the
group Think Big Topeka also orga-
nized a flash mob at a community
meeting and a formation of fans
spelling out “Google” on the ice dur-
ing a RoadRunners hockey game. A
group in Baltimore launched a web-
site that used Google mapping to
plot the location of more than 1,000
residents and give their reasons for
wanting the service. Hundreds
of groups on Facebook implored
Google to come to their cities.

Dear FFA community, my boyfriend
that goes to KSU has been hacking
my FB and writing on FFA, I’m deeply
sorry for any pain this may have
caused.
I hate the idea that you fnd what
you are looking for when you stop
looking.
I’m surprised a KSU student knew
how to work a “computater gizmo”
(as they would say).
Tell ya what, if we have a great night
together I’ll make breakfast for you in
the morning.
I’ve decided that I’m going to marry
Amy Adams and have her babies! If
only I could meet her and if only she
wasn’t married already...
I wonder how many of my professors
smoked weed in college. Just
curious.
I don’t understand why girls get
tattoos on their feet. It used to just
be the hipster thing to do, but now
it’s actually popular.
I just can’t sex you because I don’t
think you can beat my one-night
stand over spring break, sorry!
Can’t fnd my pizza blasted
Goldfsh... Naismith must be
haunted!
Dear Facebook ads, I am not
Mormon, and I do not want to drive
a school bus. Where does it get its
information?!
Then explain to me why I’m getting
an ad for “me and my baby” when I
have nothing baby related in my life.
It’s like fortune teller Madame Ruby.
She is saying “baby related things
are coming soon.” For $50 I tell you
EVERYTHING you need to know.
What’s the same about K-State grads
and tornados? They both enjoy
trailer parks.
How can I tell if this bitch is cheating
on me?
If you’re calling her a bitch and
you’re supposedly dating her, she’s
cheating on you.
To the girls wearing short shorts and
leggings: Other students and faculty
can see your butts sticking out.
Please don’t ruin it for the male
population.
I used to be in the FFA all the time,
now I have a boyfriend and no
longer have clever cynical things to
say #bittersweet.
I listened to “Let it Burn” by Usher
after we lost Sunday. I’m obviously
handling this very well.
The South Park St. sign is missing...
What a shame...
I am so glad I am graduating in May,
because I am tired of getting put in
group projects with sorority girls.
When she says she isn’t THAT kind of
girl it means that she doesn’t want
to be that kind of girl with YOU.
Sorry bud.
Awwww Missouri has banners for
every sweet 16 they’ve been to,
how cute.

Here’s to longer spring breaks and
refreshing Dr Peppers all around
I am a lover of the English lan-
guage. Aside from a brief fling
with Spanish in high school, I have
remained monogamous to English
for around 20 years. I’ve used it to
write reports and poetry, and I’ve
spoken all the most important sen-
tences of my life in it. I think all of my
thoughts in English, though I realized
I don’t need to use any language at all
to convey my own ideas to myself.
As the lover of English that I am,
there was once a time in my life when
improper use of grammar and spell-
ing upset me. I would correct people
when they meant whom instead of
who, and I had strong opinions about
Oxford commas and the word octo-
pi.
I grew older though, and I real-
ized a couple things. Most people do
not pay attention to you when you
correct their English, and the only
reason I really cared so much was so I
could have another reason to feel like
I was better than everyone else.
Now I find myself growing irri-
tated when I hear others correcting
grammar and spelling. In particular, I
dread hearing people complain about
others replacing “you” and “are” with
“u” and “r.” The last time I heard this
complaint, though, I had an epiphany.
What if there was a way to stop these
complaints?
I have a very simple solution that
should solve all the problems people
have concerning these two words.
Why don’t we just change the official
spellings of “you” and “are” to “u” and
“r”? Now I can imagine some will not
like this idea, but allow me to make
my argument.
English obviously doesn’t have a
problem with one-letter words as the
words “a” and “I” already exist. There
is also a precedent among all lan-
guages for changing the spelling of
words.
You could argue “u” and “r” don’t
look professional. Of course, wouldn’t
the time and ink saved over time by
spelling words with two less letters
eventually add up and be in the best
interest for businesses?
You might also say it would be con-
fusing to change the spelling of words
when people are so used to them. I
didn’t invent these one-letter spell-
ings myself. Many people are already
using them. It could be said that’s
no reason to change a word. Many
people wrongly use the word monkey
when talking about apes like chim-
panzees. That probably doesn’t mean
we should get rid of the word ape.
That’s why I’m not arguing we should
update any words besides “you” and
“are” at this moment though.
Honestly, I don’t think the English-
speaking world will accept my pro-
posal, but I also don’t expect the
one-letter spellings of these words
will go away. There will be no resolu-
tion to this limbo in my lifetime, but
I at least can hope that some people
will read my argument and decide to
be a little less critical of their fellow
human beings.

COMMentarY
I went to London for spring break
this year, and though it was overall
a tremendously fun and rewarding
experience, there were a few things
about the trip that bothered me. For
example, not one single restaurant I
ate at, fast food or otherwise, had Dr
Pepper as a soft drink option. They
did, however, offer orange Fanta with-
out fail. I’m not against embracing
cultural differences, but Fanta is the
least American beverage in the known
universe, and I just can’t abide engag-
ing in such uncivilized behavior as
actually drinking it.
I think much of London would
agree with me, because near the end
of my trip there were massive protests
on Oxford Street and Trafalgar Square,
presumably by a coalition of Dr
Pepperians and anti-Fantites who did
not wanta the tyranny of Fanta in their
otherwise majestic city.
Limited soda selection aside, the
real problem with my trip was that
it had to end. Indeed, many students
returned from their spring break trav-
els this week, exhausted and not par-
ticularly excited to return to the harsh
reality of classes, tests and papers. It’s
entirely unreasonable to expect anyone
to be able to jump right back into the
rigorous routine of academia after an
entire week away from it all. This is
why I believe we need a new structure
for spring break, one that lets us ease
back into our schedules.
Cliché though it may be, “I need a
vacation from this vacation” is a senti-
ment shared by many, yet followed
through by few. Under my new system,
spring break would be followed by
spring break break, a week-long wind-
down period during which students
can relax by staying at home or going
on a leisurely trip, perhaps to a place
that prefers the 23 wonderful flavors of
Dr Pepper to the one crappy flavor of
orange Fanta.
Of course, an entire week of nap-
ping and lounging and sipping DP
would put students in a bind of a dif-
ferent sort: They would be too rested,
and as a result unwilling to wear
themselves out with a return to a full-
speed slate of coursework. That’s why
spring break break would be followed
by a pre-return dry run – a week dur-
ing which students go to classes at
their scheduled times, but with casual
conversation and free food in the place
of actual lecture and discussion. This
would get students back into the habit
of going to class without placing the
unseemly burden of actual work on
their newly stress-free shoulders.
When actual work resumes the
next week, it may not be quite up to
par with the work students produced
earlier in the semester, when they were
in something of a rhythm. To allow
students the time to get their scholas-
tic grooves back, the month after the
pre-return dry run would be a heavily
curved probationary period, during
which all tests and assignments will
earn an “A” grade regardless of actual
quality. This would help compensate
for the academic capabilities lost or
damaged during the previous three
work-free weeks.
At this point, finals week is all that
would remain. Thanks to the tremen-
dous grade improvements experienced
by all during the probationary period,
very few people would need to take
their finals to keep an “A,” rendering
this last week totally optional – as it
should be.
I urge Student Senate to turn this
plan into policy at the soonest possible
opportunity. Also, screw this Coke
campus stuff; I want some Dr Pepper
in the Hawk Shop!

What if you could take a pill that
made you better, smarter and richer?
This is the basis of the new movie
“Limitless” starring Bradley Cooper,
Abbie Cornish and Robert De Niro.
Basically, Cooper’s character, Eddie
Morra, is a deadbeat writer who was
recently dumped by his girlfriend and
is about to lose his apartment. He dis-
covers NZT-48, a drug that supposedly
“accesses 100 percent of the brain.”
The movie claims we can only access
20 percent of our brain. One pill
allows him to finish writing his book,
learn Italian and become rich through
investment in four days. He becomes
a wealthy businessman when he starts
experiencing adverse side effects of the
drug: black outs, memory lapses and
lack of strength.
So would you take this pill if you
were guaranteed to see vast improve-
ment? Regardless, NZT-48 does not
exist in real life. What about other
guaranteed pills that are FDA approved?
That makes it better, right? Adderall and
other similar medications prescribed for
ADD are the closest we have to “magic”
pills in the sense that it helps most users
focus and get motivated.
The issue is people that are not diag-
nosed with ADD abuse this drug. I
admit I took it once, ironically, to study
for a neurobiology test. I was in the
zone within 20 minutes. Reading about
synaptic plasticity seemed enjoyable.
I was up for 13 hours straight read-
ing powerpoints and drinking an
ungodly amount of water. Adderall is a
diuretic and will dehydrate you.
I did well on the test, but coming
off this drug was horrible. My heart
seemed like it was beating twice as fast.
My appetite was suppressed for half a
day so my stomach was hurting. I was
so tired but couldn’t fall asleep. I sat on
my bed miserable, with my right eye
twitching.
I decided then I would never take it
again. The side effects were not worth it.
The effects of over-consuming medi-
cation are dangerous. In “Limitless,”
Morra is urged to stop taking the pill
when he finds out others who abused it
have died or were hospitalized.
When your body becomes addicted
to a substance like NZT-48, your body
begins to rely on it. A 2008 Harvard
study showed addictive drugs stimulate
a reward circuit in the brain.
Rewarding experiences like getting
an A on a test or making millions in a
four-day period triggers the release of
dopamine. This signals the brain to “do
it again.” Therefore, it is difficult to quit
right away when drug-induced change
alters memories linking the drug as
a pleasurable incentive. Morra has to
taper off the drug by reducing the dos-
age little by little.
It is important to note how this movie
belittles actual brain power. In the mid-
dle of the 20th century, scientists had
limited knowledge on how the brain
functioned. This somehow translated to
to public and mass media now that only
use 20 percent of our brain. New tech-
nologies like MRIs or PET scans show
this to be incorrect. That is like saying
we only use 20 percent of our muscles
when muscular contraction happens all
that time. If these statistics were true,
you would be dead.
The world is not ready for a pill as
extreme as NZT-48 to be released for
the public. It would be expensive to buy
and regulate in the pharmaceutical mar-
ket. Many scientists would try to make a
generic for a fraction of the cost.
The world would become an instant
Darwinian society. Anyone who had
access to the pill would be infinitely
times better than their peers competing
for the same job or entrance to a profes-
sional school. Others without the funds
for this drug will become jealous and
mentally hungry.
When people are desperate, they do
not think rationally. They may even
kill others to get the drug. Morra is so
desperate he drinks the blood of some-
one who just injected NZT-48 in his
bloodstream in hopes to get the high he
needs.
If one is on this pill long enough, the
line between the actual person and the
drug becomes thin. Am I talking to my
friend or am I talking to the effects of
the drug on my friend?
It does not take a pill to succeed,
just inner motivation. And when you
find that inner motivation, you really
become limitless.

children, including 58,000 girls.
Mortenson said that educating
girls at least to a ffh grade level
was efective in lowering infant
mortality, slowing population
growth, and improving quality of
life.
Mortenson began his work afer
a failed attempt to climb Pakistan’s
K2, the second highest mountain
in the world. While recovering
from his climb in a village called
Korphe, he found a group of
children writing in the dirt with
sticks and promised to build them
a school. Working together with
the community, Mortenson saw
the school completed three years
later. It stood in the same place
where those children had been
sitting.
Te lecture included the short
flm, Stones into Schools, which
focuses on Mortenson’s work in
Afghanistan and shares its name
with his latest book. Te flm
shows Afghani
children study-
ing in one-room
schools made
from steel truck
containers and
abandoned So-
viet armored
personnel carri-
ers, and follows
Mortenson and
his partners as
they build a school in a remote vil-
lage. It tells the story of Gul Mar-
jan, 14, whose hopes of attending
the new school
were dashed
when he was
killed in 2006
by one of the
many land
mines lef in
the area from
the war with
the Soviet
Union in the
1980s.
Mortenson met with members
of Student Senate and representa-
tives of student groups two hours
before the lecture for an informal
discussion of community activism
and volunteer eforts. Preferring
to arrange the group in a circle
and without shoes — in the Paki-
stani tradition — Mortenson of-
fered advice and encouragement
to the organizers. He stressed the
importance of beginning with
simple eforts with the goal of cre-
ating sustainable programs and
told the students to take care of
themselves so as not to become
burned out as other idealistic
people whom he had known.
“Don’t become bitter and cyni-
cal, please,” he said.
Megan Watson, an event or-
ganizer for the Center for Com-
munity Outreach, said the group
hoped Mortenson’s talk would in-
spire students not only to volun-
teer in their communities, but to
look at new and unconventional
ways to help those in need.

BY SARA SNEATH
[email protected]
On a Friday evening in February
1972, 30 women locked themselves
in the University East Asian Studies
building. They called themselves
the February Sisters. For 13 hours,
the women occupied the building,
demanding attention be brought to
the inequality of women on cam-
pus.
Many students now benefit from
these demands, yet few know the
history behind them. Women’s
History Month is almost over, but
for University gender equality activ-
ists, the history making has just
begun.
Robert Hughes, a graduate stu-
dent in the sociology department,
describes inequality as “untapped
potential.”
“You never know who would’ve
developed the next cure for cancer
or solved a major engineering prob-
lem, but because they were never
given the opportunity we’ll never
know,” Hughes said.
Hughes does not consider himself
an activist.
“My approach is generally to
demonstrate the empirical inequali-
ties that are there; what society loses
as a result of those inequalities; and
then leave the question of what to do
about it to a student’s own research,”
he said.
However, not all those who do
consider themselves activists lock
themselves in buildings. Rather, they
may argue that education is the first
step.
Meredith Pavicic, a junior from
Leawood, is the president of the
Commission on the Status of Women
(CSW), a University student organi-
zation aimed at discussing and com-
bating gender discrimination. She
says the main focus of the CSW this
semester has been the changes going
on in the Kansas Legislature.
“I think most people — men and
women — they have these rights,
and if they don’t appreciate them
then they can be taken away. And
they are being taken away in the
Kansas Legislature right now,”
Pavicic said.
In addition to its current engage-
ments, Pavicic said the CSW con-
tinues to hold annual events such as
“The Vagina Monologues” with the
intent to keep an open forum about
topics that some are too afraid to
talk or think about.
For Ruben Maldonado, a sopho-
more from Junction City, it was this
open forum that drew him into the
CSW. After hearing about the orga-
nization through an English course
and a friend who had attended a
meeting, Maldonado decided to
check out the group for himself.
“[I] went to one meeting
and another and kept on going,”
Maldonado said. “Talking to the
other people in the meeting, they
had all taken women’s studies class-
es. I have a busy schedule, and I can’t
take those courses. To me, it became
like a free class.”
For those who want more educa-
tion or to become actively involved
in a movement, many opportuni-
ties are available. The CSW meets
at 8 p.m. every Monday in the
Regionalist room of the Kansas
Union. From 7:30 to 9 p.m. this
Thursday, the CSW will hold a panel
discussion about reproductive rights
in Alderson Auditorium of the
Kansas Union. Included in the panel
will be two February Sisters mem-
bers. In addition, at 7:30 p.m. every
Thursday the Feminist Book Club
meets in the Ecumenical Christian
Ministries building.

Maggie Hull home and give the
Jayhawks a 2-1 advantage. Afer

In the bottom of the fourth

low a runner to reach scoring
position for the remainder of the

the momentum that they gained
from their win against UMKC
to propel them forward in con-
ference play starting Saturday

“It just felt good to get a

ou’ve likely heard of Chad Ochocinco’s
recent foray into playing soccer.
Ochocinco, the eccentric Cincinnati
Bengals wide receiver, tried out for Kansas
City’s own Sporting KC MLS team last week
and earned a spot as an honorary member of
the team. Now he can train with the team’s
reserve squad as long as he pleases.
Ochocinco’s temporary sport switch has
surprised many observers, but it shouldn’t.
What’s really surprising is that he’s the only
one truly taking advantage of the NFL lock-
out. With professional football players techni-
cally out of work, there should be a slew of
athletes taking advantage of this once-in-a-
lifetime opportunity to explore new hobbies
or even careers. Why are they sitting back and
twiddling their thumbs while contract nega-
tions continue in vain when there’s a whole
world of opportunity awaiting them outside
of football?
It doesn’t just have to be other sports,
though. Michael Vick did plenty to improve
his tarnished image with great on-field perfor-
mances last season, but you know what could
win over the public even more?
A dog-walking business.
Everyone loves the neighborhood dog-
walker. But it doesn’t just have to be any dog
— he could specialize in taking competitive
greyhounds out for afternoon sprints at the
local track. As long as he doesn’t start betting
on which ones will kill each other again, he
should be as popular as ever.
Tom Brady probably has enough money
to last him a while, but that doesn’t mean he
couldn’t try some modeling for a while. He’s
certainly got a convenient link to the industry
with his wife, supermodel Gisele Bündchen.
And those flowing locks he’s sporting now
(which, apparently, have recently been styled
into a pony tail) [link to: http://sports.yahoo.
com/nfl/blog/shutdown_corner/post/Tom-
Brady-is-now-sporting-a-handsome-little-
pony?urn=nfl-330750] deserve to be on the
cover of more magazines than just Sports
Illustrated — let’s be honest. He wouldn’t
even be the first NFL quarterback to try out
modeling, as Joe Namath was featured in a
1973 ad (link to: http://www.youtube.com/
watch?v=CZBLEeR836I) for pantyhose.
Ryan Fitzpatrick probably couldn’t have a
modeling career, but he could likely do almost
anything else. Fitzpatrick is a Harvard alum-
nus who reportedly performed better than
any current player on the NFL draft’s IQ test,
the Wonderlic, with a score of 49 out of 50
(as opposed to Michael Vick’s score of 20). He
could not only be a very successful chemist,
physicist, or something else for smart people,
but he’d also probably have the biggest biceps
in his field.
And what about Bart Scott? You know,
the New York Jets linebacker known for his
crazy-eyed postgame interview (link to: http://
www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJshw2Axsqc)
in which he declared he “Can’t wait!” to face
the Pittsburgh Steelers. Since the interview
went viral, Scott actually trademarked the
phrase. But that should only be the begin-
ning – Scott should ride this phrase for all
it’s worth. He could become a professional
motivational speaker, write the “Can’t Wait!”
book, and inspire countless millions who
are wasting their lives by believing that they
can wait. Who knows — Oprah still needs a
replacement, so maybe Scott could even fill
those shoes.

Ochocinco and fnd other careers that suit their skills.
Potential jobs for NFL players
Morning brew | 9A
If I didn’t know any better, I’d
think Kansas basketball was the
only blue blood with its share
of misfortunes the last decade.
It sure sounds like it when I
turned on the TV this week.
In the college basketball
world, four teams rule the
roost, as you probably know:
Kentucky, North Carolina,
Kansas and Duke. UCLA isn’t
far down the list, either. With
the annual barrage of attacks
after another NCAA tourna-
ment disappointment last week,
I checked out the resumes of
the other three schools the last
10 years. It was interesting, to
say the least. While Kansas gets
labeled as choke artists by fans
and SportsCenter anchors, the
Jayhawks have actually been
more consistent — in the tour-
nament and regular season —
than any other team.
Kansas is the only program to
have a top four seed in the tour-
nament every year since 2002.
Kentucky has been an 11 seed
once and an eight seed twice.
North Carolina and Duke have
both been six seeds. When you
have been a top four seed every
year since George W. Bush’s first
term, upsets are going to hap-
pen. Sorry, but it’s the law of
averages or something like that.
In 2005, when Kansas was upset
by Bucknell after winning 23
games and capturing the Big 12
Conference title, UCLA was an
11 seed. Do Kansas fans know
what an 11 seed even looks like?
That same year, Duke lost in the
Sweet 16 as a one seed.
I hear about 2006 a lot as
well. Another first round loss
after winning 25 games and
grabbing another Big 12 title,
Duke, as a one seed once again,
lost in the Sweet 16. Kentucky
was an 8 seed that didn’t sur-
vive the first weekend. Oh, and
North Carolina was taken out
by George Mason in the second
round.
Then there were a couple
years (2007 and 2008) when
Kansas went to another Elite
8 and won some national title
or something. In that stretch,
Duke lost to VCU in the
first round, Kentucky was an
eight and 11 seed, and North
Carolina fell in the Sweet 16 as
a one seed.
I failed to mention the four
NIT appearances by Kentucky
and North Carolina over the
last 10 years. For half of the
student body at Kansas, the
Jayhawks have been in the
tournament every single year of
their life. North Carolina and
Kentucky have missed the tour-
nament four times in the last
10 years.
So as last Sunday’s loss is
replayed over and over again,
this Saturday during the Final
Four games, remember that it
has been far worse for your blue
blooded friends at one time or
another. Jayhawks, the country
is shocked that you lost. Be
worried when they are shocked
that you won.

Te will to fght has been a ma-
jor factor in favor of the Jayhawks
this season. However, afer losing
two doubleheaders back-to-back
against No. 11 Missouri (3-2, 6-5)
and No. 8 Texas (12-0, 10-2 both
in fve innings) the team had be-
come discouraged. Wednesday
night they traveled to Kansas
City, Mo. to face UMKC in hopes
of ending the four-game losing
streak. Te team did earn anoth-
er victory, but not without also
putting another tally in the loss
column. Kansas now hold a 27-8
record but are winless in confer-
ence play.
“Get back to how we play
sofball,” coach Megan Smith said
to the team during the between
game huddle. “I think afer the
tough weekend we had, that kind
of dragged into that frst game,
and unfortunately we weren’t able
to turn the page quick enough
against a really good pitcher for
UMKC. She did an excellent job.”
Te Kansas batters did not
execute their game plan against
UMKC during the frst game of
the doubleheader in which they
fell 2-1. Te ofense managed fve
hits to the Roos’ 12 during the
contest. Tey faced sophomore
ace pitcher Deanna Friese. She
struck out eight Jayhawks and al-
lowed only fve hits with one er-
ror.
Te sole run for the Jayhawks
came from junior outfelder Liz
Kocon at the top of the sixth. Te
game mirrored the UMKC from
last season where they Jayhawks
went 1-0 in the game that Friese
pitched.
Freshman pitcher Kristin
Martinez controlled the circle for
the entire game. She had a slow
start but ended the contest with
nine strikeouts and two errors,
but she allowed 12 hits. Her nine
strikeouts make a career record.
She is now 12-3 from the circle.
Despite the nine strikeouts,
the Roos scored two runs in the
frst inning afer a string of strong
singles. Martinez and the Jayhawk
defense, especially third baseman
Marissa Ingle worked to fght of
the batters for the remaining in-
nings. Regardless of the efort by
the defense, the ofense just was
not able to fnd a way to make
contact against Friese.
During the nightcap, the Jay-
hawks turned things around and
began to play like the team that
went 10-0 during the frst two
weekends of the season.
“I think we were a lot more
focused and determined. Our
coach, afer the frst game, chal-
lenged us to step it up and start
from now through the rest of the
season to work hard and be in-
tense all seven innings. She chal-
lenged that; she put that on the
table. I think we really focused on
that and tried our hardest,” senior
pitcher Allie Clark said.
Clark showed her dominance
as a pitcher during the second
game. She threw pitches that
made the batters work to get a hit,
and those hits for the most part
were ground balls or direct hits to
the defense that were converted
into quick outs at frst base. She
threw three strikeouts, allowed
only three hits and committed
one error. She is now 11-4 from
the circle.
Te Jayhawk ofense got on
a run during the fourth inning
when they made six hits to earn
all four runs. Kocon started of the
inning with a strong hit straight to
the second baseman that was mis-
handled converting into a single.
Freshman util Marisa Malazzo
entered as Kocon’s pinch runner.
Sophomore outfelder Maggie
Hull hit a single to center feld to
advance Malazzo. Senior catcher
Brittany Hile stepped up and hit
a double to center feld giving
Malazzo enough time to round

The Jayhawks traveled to
Springfield, Ill., with hopes of
turning around their three-game
losing streak, and correcting
their woes at the plate. Instead,
they were shutout in a 6-0 loss to
Missouri State.
The Jayhawks came into
Wednesday’s game with a focus
on being able to knock in run-
ners once they get on base. They
finished the game having left eight
runners on base.
“We did get nine hits and two
or three balls were hit hard,” coach
Ritch Price said.
Things didn’t go as planned for
Kansas as early as the first inning,
when senior outfielder Casey Lytle
advanced to third base after a wild
pitch. The Jayhawks attempted a
double steal that ended up with
Lytle getting caught stealing.
The Jayhawks missed another
big opportunity in the fourth
inning with the game still score-
less. Junior designated hitter James
Stanfield success-
fully completed a
bunt single with
two outs to start
a potential game-
changing rally.
Kansas followed
up the hustle play
with a huge sin-
gle to left-center
from slumping
senior shortstop
Brandon Macias. With runners on
the corners, junior first basemen
Zac Elgie grounded into an anti-
climatic third out.
“We needed somebody to get a
clutch hit,” Price said when talking
about the fourth inning. “It was
really disappointing.”
With the Jayhawks woes at the
plate continuing to plague their
season, the Jayhawks’ pitching
needed to step up and take charge
in Springfield.
Sophomore starting pitcher
Thomas Taylor had three strong
innings for Kansas, holding the
Bears scoreless through three
before struggling in the fourth.
Taylor’s night ended after giving
up three runs in the fourth.
“He made one really bad pitch.
He left the ball up and they
clutched up for a two-run two-out
single,” Price said.
While things went poorly for the
Jayhawks’ big picture, their three
senior hitters, that had been strug-
gling early in the season, all had
multi-hit games. Macias, Lytle and
senior outfielder Jimmy Waters
stepped up for the Jayhawks,
something they had been lacking
all season.
Waters, the team’s top hitter
last season, was two-for-three on
the day, and improved his aver-
age to .230. Waters has steadily
been improving since the start of
conference play, and he credits his
improvements to some mechani-
cal changes in his swing.
“I changed my base, it used to
be real wide,” Waters said. “We
decided I needed to shorten up,
keep my head in one place, and be
able to see the ball better.”
With the senior leaders begin-
ning to pick up the pace, Price
hopes the rest will follow.
“Hopefully those three seniors
will keep swinging the bat, and
take pressure off of the younger
