Zoos offer ‘fulfilling careers’ CEO Jeff Sailer offers insight for biology students Bridjet Mendyuk Reporter
The Marine Biology Association hosted an event Thursday night on career opportunities in zoos and aquariums with the CEO of the Toledo Zoo as a guest speaker. Nick Gordon, a junior, has volunteered at the Toledo Zoo for eight years and worked there for two. Gordon works as a part-time zookeeper and hopes to work with reptiles and amphibians as a herpetology curator after graduation. He said he loves everything about his job, including his boss Jeff Sailer, Toledo Zoo’s CEO. “I think he’s really taking the zoo in the right direction, a very beneficial direction,” Gordon said. “He’s a great guy to work with, he’s very personable and he has a hands-on touch with the animals.” With a full lecture hall of students, Sailer began his presentation of careers in the zoo world by saying in order to be successful in the field, a person must make sure they have career goals and to prepare. “Zoo careers can be very fulfilling,” Sailer said. Among some of the career paths zoo’s offer are conversation programs, animal reproduction, veterinarian sciences and education programs. Anyone can become a volunteer and there are opportunities for entry level jobs as well, such as cleaning cages, feeding and observing animals, Sailer said. “I’ll tell you, a lot of the entry level positions are very basic,” Sailer said. Sailer received his bachelor’s degree in biology from Ball State University and his master’s at the University of Florida. He has worked at the Miami Metro

City police cite 197 people for public urination in 2012 PUBLIC TWEETING Know someone who got busted for peeing in public? Tweet your anonymous, emaberrassing moment at @FalconScreech Story By Alex Alusheff | City Editor
E
very time people decide to empty their bladder in public, they are potentially pissing their money away. A citation for public urination can cost an offender between $25 and $150 and may incur a court fine of $90, said Matt Reger, city prosecutor. One hundred ninety-seven people were cited for publicly urinating in 2012. “I feel peeing outside isn’t really hurting anything and it shouldn’t be that much of a price,” said senior William Porch Jr, who has admitted to urinating in the city before, but has never been caught. While to some, public urination may seem harmless, the location may bring harm to property. “People urinate all over, primarily anywhere from downtown to the University housing areas or rental properties,” Biller said. “Sometimes people urinate on sides of buildings, doorways, on a storefront. Quite a few urinate on cars, in parking lots — any place they can find to be somewhat secluded.” For Porch, the trick to not getting caught is knowing how to stay out of the open. In some cases, a full bladder isn’t the only thing that gets someone in trouble. If the person is intoxicated when

Forget Pandora and big binders cluttered with CDs — the mother of all music collections can be found in a secluded spot on campus. The University Library’s third floor boasts one of the largest sound archives in the United States with almost one million recordings and associated documentation. “This is the largest-held collection by any university in the U.S.,” said William Schurk, sound recording archivist. The sound archives were conceived during the planning and construction phases of the University Library which opened in 1967, Schurk said.
NEVER GIVE UP ON LOVE
The library started collecting CDs for the archives back in 1982. Classic rock, jazz and country are just some of the many genres offered among the thousands of selections available. The Beatles stand out as one of the many popular bands available in the archives. “I could pick up any stack of albums and you’d be in awe,” Schurk said. “Some of this stuff isn’t available in any other format.” One of the library’s oldest recordings dates back to 1894, with several other recordings more than 100 years old, such as the University’s Collegiate

University professor sentenced for DUI
A professor in the department of architecture and environmental design was sentenced earlier this week for his drunk driving incident in September. Stanley Guidera was sentenced Tuesday to one week in jail with a year of probation after pleading no contest to one count of driving under the influence, another count of failing to stop at the scene of an accident and two counts of disorderly conduct, according to case information available from the Toledo Municipal Court. Guidera, who was put on paid leave in Nov. 2012, returned Monday. The University has not yet decided what actions will be taken as a result of Guidera’s sentencing, said Dave Kielmeyer, University spokesperson. Guidera was also the chair of the department of architecture and environmental design, but was forced out of his position as a result of his incident. On Nov. 8, 2012, Faris Malhas issued Guidera the letter stripping him of his title, stating “a leadership position in the College is incompatible with those events.” The University has not yet decided whether it will terminate Guidera as a result of his actions and sentencing.

CORRECTIONS In the article, “Residents strive to improve student relations” in the Jan. 9 issue of The BG News, Rose Hess was misquoted in the article as having said that students could not have nuisance parties when it is in fact a possibility that they can have nuissance parties. Hess was also incorrectly cited as being president of the East Side Neighborhood Association when there is in face no president of the association. The News regrets the error. In the Jan. 9 article “Weapons, firearms banned throughout campus,” the reporter cited Bowling Green State University as having it’s own firearms ban across campus when in fact Ohio law states that firearms are banned from any college campus and not just that of this University. The News regrets the error.

caught, other citations can accompany the public urination such as open container or underage under the influence, Biller said. Depending on the officers’ discretion and the offenses, the person can be sent off with a $75 civil citation where they can just pay the fine, or take a criminal citation that would require a court appearance, he said. Public urination is categorized under disorderly conduct and usually becomes a minor misdemeanor in court, where people can be fined anywhere between $25 and $150, Reger said. Of the 197 citations, 109 were civil and 88 were criminal. Porch believes the city is being “money hungry” by imposing these fines, but city officials don’t see it that way. It was never pursued from an economic standpoint; the city is not trying to find one offense to make up for the gap between revenue and expenses in the budget, said John Fawcett, municipal administrator. The law and fines are there to influence a change in behavior, Fawcett said. Money that does get drained from offenders’ wallets from civil citations flows back into the city. At $75 a citation, those 109 urinations flushed $8,175 to

Matt Donahue, popular culture instructor. Most of the collection doesn’t circulate outside of the library, meaning the selections don’t leave the building. For those who wish to take things outside of the library the archives currently house nearly 18,000 pieces of sheet music available for any student who wishes to make copies for home use, free of charge. The archives also boast a large amount of books dedicated to album artwork as well as information on hundreds of bands and singers such as The Rolling Stones and Johnny Cash. For those
looking for modern music the archives actively purchase new material from private collections as well as the website Amazon.com. “We’ve gotten so far and we continue to collect and catalog new material,” Schurk said. Even the Library of Congress took note of the collection and documented it in the 1970s by publishing a catalog, among other established collections, for the entire country to see, Schurk said. Today, it’s possible to view the collection in its entirety from the University’s homepage. After clicking on
the libraries option, a series of search bars will appear for any student looking for a specific band or artist. Just for fun, Schurk searched for The Beatles using this method and found 393 results that show everything from albums such as Abbey Road, to song titles and release dates. According to sound archive employees, about 50 people visit the collection every day. Some even come to take advantage of the quiet setting. “It’s a pretty laid back and relaxing environment,” said Katie Reeves, University junior.
the city. Those funds funnel into the civil infractions fund, which supports the city code enforcement division, said Brian Bushong, city finance director. “It’s a relatively new fund, paying for part of salaries related to enforcement and office supplies,” Bushong said. The fund totaled $27,197.19 and is paid into by citations such as disorderly conduct and code violation fees like leaving a trash can out on the street too long, he said. It’s like how parking tickets pay for roads and the people who issue the tickets, Bushong said. For criminal citations, depending on which code a person was cited under, the money can go to the city or the state after it goes through the local court system, Reger said. The reason police may cite someone under state codes is because when an arrest is made, the cost to house the person in jail comes from county funds instead of city funds, Biller said. During the course of the year, the municipal court sent $217,817 to the Wood County Auditor’s office to be dispersed accordingly, said Katherine Thomas, municipal clerk of court. Under the law, state money is sent to the county. Money collected by the county from disorderly conduct such as public urination would be sent to the county general fund, where the commissioners would dispense
it on their own discretion, said Deputy Auditor David Kuebeck. The court also sent $423,565 in fees to the city, which went to the general fund, Bushong said. The general fund pays for salaries and purchases supplies and uniforms for city employees such as fire fighters and police. While these 197 citations may be a lot of pee in the city, officials are not convinced to put a bathroom on every corner. “People who are urinating in public can be coming from venues with restroom facilities and we’d like to think they’d use them,” Fawcett said. Even though downtown venues have restrooms, Porch thinks public restrooms might solve the problem. “Sometimes you don’t have to go to the bathroom until you’re already walking home,” Porch said. The city hasn’t contemplated construction of a public restroom because the extra costs to maintain it and the liability of activities that might occur in the facilities, which can’t be policed, Fawcett said. Vandalism of park restrooms is another reason to not construct facilities in the city, he said. There are 16 restrooms between City, Simpson, Wintergarden, Carter and Conneaut parks and they can be costly to maintain and repair, said Michelle Grigore, director of Parks and Recreation.
Without patrols, vandalism would occur more often, but right now it happens during the night, Grigore said. “People have set fires in the restrooms, spray graffiti, pull off soap dispensers and break mirrors,” she said. The cost to maintain a restroom for an hour a day runs a total of $14,800 a year with staff and product fees, while a mess that takes two to three hours to clean can cost $28,000 a year, Grigore said. Constructing new restrooms can cost between $100,000 and $120,000 with sewer and water hook-ups, she said. The parks use portable restrooms, which cost $87 a month or $1,044 a year with a $60 tipping fee, Grigore said in an email. While portable restrooms offer a cheaper option, Fawcett said the city has not explored that avenue because of location conflicts and extra policing that may be required. “We won’t rule it out, but we won’t actively embrace it,” he said. Porch believes money collected from the citations could go toward funding portable restrooms. Despite what people like Porch may believe, Biller thinks it isn’t the city’s job to provide restrooms for the public. “People should be responsible enough to take care of their personal hygiene,” Biller said. “It’s not the public’s responsibility to provide for that.”

ooking for a place to worship on campus? How about a faith-based environment to live in? St. Thomas More is your one-stop-shop. They have been radiating Christ across the campus of BGSU since 1932. St. Thomas More is somewhat of a campus within BGSU’s campus. It is located right next to Falcon Heights at 425 Thurstin Ave. “Our mission is for our Catholic faith is to be accessible and relevant to BGSU students, faculty and staff” said Fr. Mike Dandurand. “We want to engage people and foster community.” A sense of community is what you’ll find at St. Thomas More. In addition to the church, also offered to students are living arrangements, lounge areas, library, dining room, courtyard and a hall that doubles as a basketball court or banquet room complete with kitchen facilities. Newman Housing is available to all BGSU students, regardless of your religion, race, age or sex. All apartments are furnished with beds, desks chairs, closets and shelves. Cable and utilities are included in the rent cost and a laundry facility is available on the premises. For students looking to get involved, St. Thomas More offers Veritas, a Catholic Christian Life Group that meets every Wednesday at 7:30pm in the Student Union room 308. The group meets for fellowship, fun, service, prayer and discussion. There is still time to sign up for “CLC’s”. A CLC group is for anyone who believes in or wishes to understand more about Jesus Christ. You don’t have to be a Christian, but just open to exploring who Jesus is through discussion and the reading of the Word of God. It is ecumenical in nature
and you don’t have to be Catholic. These groups are based on the Gospel values and on the life and example of Jesus. St. Thomas More also takes part in two service trips a year during spring break. This year, the group will be going to Amocoli, Florida where they will be working to help immigrants. The group’s second trip will be taken to the Appalachain area to help the poor and needy. In addition to the two annual trips, St. Thomas More partakes in weekly service trips on Saturday mornings. They will be visiting and helping area agencies that serve the poor and needy. Fr. Mike and the entire St. Thomas More church would like to welcome all new and returning students, parents, alumni and friends into their ministry. Through the Sacraments, service to our neighbor, weekly events of formation, retreat programs, intentional living communities, social gatherings and many other outreaches they offer an opportunity to encounter the love of God.

Couples celebrate anniversaries according to own style By Abby Welsh Assistant Pulse Editor
Brie Meyers and Corey Smetana don’t limit showing their appreciation for each other on just the sixth month or one year anniversary. Because Smetana is part of the Air Force on campus, he is required to go to field training and, at times, forces their relationship to be more distant than the couple prefers. “He sent me flowers while he was away for boot

Cinemas to host Sparks-filled night Studios release new Nicholas Sparks movie cast interviews By Tara Keller Pulse Editor
Instead of waiting another month for the new Nicholas Sparks movie to come out, some fans will have their opportunity to get a sneak peak sooner than they may expect. They will get their opportunity on Jan. 17 when select movie theaters will host the live one-night theatrical event, “A Night with Nicholas Sparks’ Safe Haven,” said Michelle Portillo, public relations manager for Fathom Events. “This exclusive event is dedicated solely to a discussion and Q&A session with the author, stars and director of the movie that’s due in theaters next month,” Portillo said in an email. “Audiences will hear personal stories from them about the making of the movie and learn about their experiences on set.” Although the audience will be seated in a theater, this event gives them the opportunity to engage with the movie cast. “This event will give audiences a look into the making of the movie while giving them a chance to ask their own questions of the panel,” Portillo said. Members of this live panel will include author Nicholas Sparks and stars Josh Duhamel and Julianne Hough. “Fans of Nicholas Sparks books and movies, as well as fans of Josh Duhamel and Julianne Hough,
will enjoy this 90-minute event,” Portillo said. That audience participation with the cast has been successful in the past. “We’ve experienced great success with live events over the past decade since the audience feels like they’re part of the event — no matter where they’re watching the event from,” Portillo said. Fallen Timbers 14 in Maumee is one of the theaters hosting the event. The theater hosts all the National CineMedia events and this one is no different, said manager Lindsay Sullivan. Sullivan said although no tickets have been sold yet, she expects a majority will be sold the night of the event. “There’s usually a really big following for Nicholas Sparks,” Sullivan said. “[The event] will do very well.” For freshman Shelby Fenn, the draw of Nicholas Sparks is the feeling she gets after seeing the movie. A fan of the author, Fenn said she enjoys watching “The Notebook,” and is excited for “Safe Haven.” Fenn said she is considering going to the event next week because she’s curious what the actors will say. “I want to see what they have to say about the movie,” she said. “I’ll see if it relates to them, not just in acting, but in real life.”

Brickey enjoys starring in productions with cast members she considers family By Danae King Campus Editor
From playing murderess Velma Kelly in “Chicago” to wrestling with her ‘lover’ in “Summertime”, Eli Brickey has graced the stage in many University theatre productions. But through the years and the scripts, one thing has persisted — the fellowship Brickey has found with her
colleagues and fellow students. “Fellowship — that to me is more rewarding than entertaining people,” Brickey, a senior musical theatre major, said. “The fellowship with a cast of people who become so close to one another that you just trust them, it’s family.” Brickey will graduate in May and has participated in eight
University productions. Almost from the beginning, she was acting with Casey Toney, a senior who has acted in many plays with Brickey. Brickey is always trying to develop friendships and fellowship with

HUMAN JUICEBOX members, from left, Elliot Phillips, Alex Rodriguez, Chris Rogge, and middle Juan Bonamigo have been together since high school. The band doesn’t have a manager, so the members manage themselves and write their own music.
Human Juicebox makes music personal By Geoff Burns Pulse Reporter
Since starting their sophomore year in high school four years ago, Elliot Phillips, Chris Rogge, Juan Bonamigo and Alex Rodriguez have played shows and released an album as the band Human Juicebox. Born in Maumee, the psychedelic and alternative funk band got its name from Rogge’s younger brother and is currently unsigned, while the members manage everything for the band themselves. Rogge, guitarist and vocalist, said the band usually plays shows in the Toledo and Bowling Green area and doesn’t like to write lyrics about political or major things in life. “We write a lot about ourselves and personal relationships with people,” Rogge said. “A lot of it is about our feelings and our emotions. We just write about how we feel.” When the band comes up with a song idea, it usually
consists of a single member creating a guitar riff and the band will get together and jam on it to see where it goes from there, he said. “Sometimes it will be one of us that takes charge of the song being created, but mostly everything comes from all of us,” Rogge said. “It mainly just becomes from whatever inspiration it is that we have.” Elliot Phillips, bassist and vocalist, said he enjoys collaborating with other musical artists because unique ideas can be made and brought to the table. Some of the artists Human Juicebox has worked with include rappers such as EZ Rick, Dmac, Travis Geiman and Michael Barlos from the local band The Lonely Friends, and from members of another local band called Free Range. These artists have contributed and helped write some of the songs off of the band’s debut album, “100%

Juice.” “We feel when you work with other artists, new opportunities are born,” Phillips said. “It’s like exchanging musical wisdom.” Chris Knopp, a solo musician from Toledo, became familiarized with Human Juicebox after watching the band perform at the open mic night in the past and remaining in contact with them ever since. “I immediately liked them,” Knopp said. “They’re young and they have really good energy. They’re everything good about a garage band.” The band is also expecting a release of its second album in the summer. “We like meeting new people and new musicians,” Rogge said. “We like to share our music with people who enjoy it.” For more information about Human Juicebox, visit their Facebook page, Twitter page, and on reverbnation.com.

camp over the summer because he knew he was going to miss it, so he sent me a dozen roses,” Meyers said. Anniversaries are typically celebrated yearly to show appreciation for a significant other, but for Meyers and Smetana, they celebrate monthly. “We started off celebrating first month through sixth month and then one year,” Meyers said. “Now, when we celebrate, we just go out to dinner at our favorite resturants.” While gifts given on anniversaries, personal or universal, are might be cards or flowers, Meyers likes to make her gifts more personal by handmaking them. The couple started off by having movie nights, which is what Meyers said she described as “our thing.” “For Valentine’s Day, I made him a movie night bucket, since that is how we started off, with popcorn, candy bars in a popcorn bucket,” Meyers said. “Then I made him an ‘I Love You’ present, which I’ve been working on since summer and I made him an Air Force blanket for our one year.” Smetana wanted to do
BRICKEY From Page 5 other actors, Toney said. “She’s definitely the kind of actor and worker who brings that positive attitude and is trying to talk to everybody in the cast,” Toney said. “[Fellowship is] definitely one of things we both really love about theatre.” Toney and Brickey formed a friendship of their own working together in productions, and their friendship soon grew to a relationship. The two have been dating and working together for more than three years. “We’ve been able to help each other in some really positive ways,” Toney said. Through their personal and professional relationships, Toney has seen the way Brickey acts and portrays her characters. “She can be timid and she can be very sweet and that brings an innocence and a vulnerability and an emotional openness to the things she does,” Toney said. “At the same time, she’s very goofy and can command a room when she wants to.” Her personality and passion show through in the characters she portrays, Toney said. “I think as actors, you have to find the connection with all the characters,” Brickey

WWW.BGNEWS.COM something a little more elaborate for their one year, so he took Meyers out to dinner to Olive Garden and got her a promise ring. “This was a big thing for both of us because it was our first time being a relationship for a year,” Meyers said. Maryann SanduskyGibson, owner of The Flower Basket, said the most common anniversary presents bought at her store are rose pedels, roses, daisies, balloons and plants. “We usually get months such as one, two, three and six and then generally one year,” Sandusky-Gibson said. “The young men who come in here probably tell me more than I want to know about their gift ideas, but they are far more romantic now than back in my day.” Gift ideas Sandusky-Gibson said some men have told her about are sprinkling rose pedals on the bed, in the bath tub and along with romantic scavenger hunts. “I’ve even heard about guys buying single roses to lead up to an anniversary and then on the anniversary, buying a dozen,” SanduskyGibson said. “The oldest anniversary that has come to us was 68 years.” Juniors Cole Stanton and
Audrey LaVergne have been dating for eight years and only celebrate yearly anniversaries. “Audrey and I used to celebrate short-term anniversaries earlier on in our relationship, but over the years we switched to just celebrating anniversaries every year,” Stanton said. “I think that as long as we spend time together enjoying our anniversary or holiday, we are both just as happy as any gift we get each other.” Stanton said going out to eat or getting chocolate or cookies is always a good gift. “Everyone is always a fan of The Cookie Jar,” Stanton said. Maureen Lanigan, one of the owners of The Cookie Jar, said they see a lot of repeat customers who buy cookies and customized cookie cakes. “It’s always nice to see regular customers year after year who celebrate anniversaries,” Lanigan said. “Two of our most popular cookie packages are our small hot cookies one and cookie cakes.” Both The Cookie Jar and The Flower Basket enjoy helping couples celebrate their anniversaries, whether it’s for personal anniversaries or traditional holidays. “I don’t think it matters how young or old you are, love happens when it supposed to,” Sandusky-Gibson said.
said. “You find the connection with how you relate to them, you find through the process how you are similar to them or not.” Brickey enjoys showing other people’s lives to the audience, she said. “It’s so exciting to not only entertain people and hear laughter,” she said. “It’s so exciting to be able to captivate people and show them someone else’s life for a while.” Playing Maria in “Summertime” is Brickey’s favorite role so far, she said. Brickey found a lot of fellowship and friendship with the cast and Director Sara Chambers, she said. “I genuinely didn’t mind if the audience didn’t like the show because I was having such a good time during the rehearsal process,” Brickey said. Chambers, a lecturer and director, said her one of her favorite memories of Brickey was as Maria in “Summertime”. “I think that I could say that in “Summertime” when she wrestled with Francois, who was her love interest, and she pinned him to the ground,” Chambers said. “I’ll say it was quite something to see.” Brickey and Chambers have done many “crazy” things together, Chambers said. “She’s really funny and she’s a fearless performer,”
Chambers said. Brickey works hard to be better at performing, Toney said. “Eli always wants to grow, she can be a bit hard on herself sometimes, I guess, but it comes out of a real desire to improve as an actor,” Toney said. Brickey takes every opportunity available to her, she said. “If there was an opportunity, I took it,” Brickey said. “I think that’s how I’ve become at least successful in this community.” Being involved in theatre at the University has changed Brickey, she said. “When I first came here I was just naïve to just the audition process and the collegiate level of theatre,” Brickey said. “I feel like I made a complete transition.” Brickey became more driven and more appreciative of people during her time at the University, she said. “[It’s] helped me to appreciate the people involved in all aspects of theatre,” Brickey said. Toney and Brickey will be in Abundance, a University production which premieres in February. When Brickey graduates, she plans to pursue a career in theatre. She wants to settle down in New York and hopefully one day be on Broadway, she said.

DOMINANT Women’s basketball tramples on Kent State to open conference play Thursday night By Max Householder Reporter
The atmosphere was electric at the Stroh Center as the Falcons opened up conference play against Kent State. It could have been the BG athletes waiting to be honored at halftime that added the extra noise. Or it could have been the growing sense that this Falcon team was one on the rise. Prior to their loss against Central Florida this past Friday, BG had won six in a row. Before that game, they were also 5-1 at home. They improved upon that record Thursday night against an overmatched Kent State team. Kent had just come of a win against Bethune-Cookman, but BG was by far a bigger adversary. The Falcons pounded the Golden Flashes by a score of 69-33. It was their biggest win of the season, not including a 105-39 exhibition win against Slippery Rock. BG shot 44.2 percent from the field, while defensively they had 10 steals on the night. The Falcons also doubled up the Golden Flashes in turnovers, as they forced them into 18 while only committing nine themselves. It seemed as if Kent State might hang around in the beginning when they led 5-0 to start the game. From there, the Falcons demonstrated their experience and proved to be too much for the young Golden Flashes. BG showed its versatility in the scoring department as they got many contributions from their bench. In fact, the Falcons had almost everyone suited up to play score a bucket. Leading the way in scoring for the Falcons was sophomore Deborah Hoekstra who had 12 points on four of six shooting. Her 12 points was a team best, followed closely by senior Allison Papenfuss who added 10. Hoekstra and junior Katrinas Salinas each had their highest point totals of their young careers. Along with Hoekstra’s 12, Salinas also added 12 which made BG a tough opponent to stop. The Falcons bench outscored Kent State’s by a 40-6 margin.

Falcons fail to find win despite late game rally against Central Michigan on Wednesday By Alex Krempasky Assistant Sports Editor
After four month lockout, professional hockey to start
After a late game push by the Falcons, they could not overcome Central Michigan, losing 73-67 on Wednesday in the MidAmerican Conference season opener. The Falcons went into halftime down 37-20, but Central Michigan lead the Falcons by 23 in the second half. Senior Jordan Craw ford had different plans for the Chippewas. After a slow first half, he answered by putting up 25 points in the second half. Crawford set a new career-high in points with 29 on the night. Sophomore A nt hony Henderson recorded a career high in points as well, with 13 points against the Chippewas including three 3-point baskets. Sophomore Richaun Holmes had a stellar night on defense, recording nine rebounds and five blocks. Now, Holmes has a total of 40 blocks on the season and is averaging 2.9 blocks per game, which places him in the

Be happy NHL is back, but don’t forget why it was away RYAN SATKOWIAK SENIOR REPORTER
STEVEN ECHARD | THE BG NEWS
JAMES ERGER looks to drive to the hoop despite being guarded by two defenders.
On Jan. 6, I woke up to a text from one of my friends that the NHL owners and players had tentatively agreed to end the four month long lockout. I don’t really think I need to explain the joy this brought me; if you’re a hockey fan, you know what hearing that news felt like. If you aren’t, but like the NFL or NBA, you probably experienced that feeling last year when each league resolved their respective lockouts. After four months of anger turned to disappointment and disappointment turned to apathy, the NHL was finally back. But the longer I thought about it, the more perplexed I became about the whole situation. Yes, it’s great that the sport is back. But I shouldn’t be this excited because the season is simply starting. I mean, that should be
a given every year, right? With the NHL, that hasn’t exactly been the case. Now with three work stoppages in my lifetime — albeit only two that I can remember — every time the league’s Collective Bargaining Agreement expires going forward, fans are undoubtedly going to be holding their breath. Now that the whole ordeal is over and I can look back on it without an angry bias, it’s really hard for me to direct blame to any one side. Throughout the lockout, I generally had more sympathy for the players. That was on the sole basis that I too would be upset if my employer was making record revenues, yet asked me to take a pay cut for no other reason than he wants more profit for himself. While I don’t necessarily agree with it, I can understand where the owners were coming from as well. As much as we don’t like to admit it, every professional sports league is a business and

DAVE CLAWSON, head coach, runs on the field with the Falcon football team. Clawson stayed with BG despite several other coaches leaving their teams nation-wide.
NCAA can prevent coaches from leaving programs before bowl games ETHAN EASTERWOOD SPORTS EDITOR
Why do college coaches leave their teams prior to bowl games for other jobs? This new trend is growing in momentum over the past few seasons, yet none more prominently than this past one. As the college football season finished up, over six coaches had left their respective programs prior to their bowl games in light of new coaching positions at different schools. This, on the surface, seems unfair to the programs and the players, but because of the current NCAA system, the coaches
almost have to if they want to be successful at their new schools. Basically, if the coaches do not leave as soon as possible for a new position and instead finish out the season before accepting a new job offer, they will lose critical recruiting time. Many coaches must figure out what is more important to them; finishing the season or started their new career off on the right foot. The early migration of coaches isn’t as cruel as it may seem. Most leave before their team get accepted into a bowl game. Take the case of Northern Illinois Head Coach Dave Doeren. Doeren left the Huskies one day prior to the team’s acceptance into the Orange Bowl. He didn’t know his

fired. Meaning, that good MAC talent leaves for larger programs. Clawson didn’t leave before the Falcon’s Military Bowl game; however, his opponent, Mike MacIntyre, did leave San Jose State out of the WAC for Colorado. San Jose State would go one to win under their interim coach for its first 11 win season in school history. When coaches leave a program, it puts the added pressure for a new coach to be hired or appointed for, arguably, the most important game of a team’s career. But what can be done about this that is fair to all involved? Well for starters, the

The Huskies lost to Florida State in the Orange Bowl under their interim head coach. The trend is most common among mid-major conferences such as the MAC or the WAC. This became apparent when Doeren left NIU and then Kent State Head Coach Darrell Hazell left for Purdue. There were even rumors that BG’s Dave Clawson could be next to leave.

Track and field host indoor home opener

After 4th place finish at Eastern Michigan University on Monday, Falcons to host first home meet of season Saturday By Cameron Teague Robinson Reporter
On Saturday Jan. 12, the BG track and field team will have its indoor home opener held in the Perry Field House. The field players will start at 11 a.m. and the runners will start at 12 p.m. The team saw some good f lashes from individuals in their season opener at Eastern Michigan University a little more than a month ago. Highlighting that meet was Brooke Pleger in the weight throw. Pleger set a personal best, with a distance of 59 feet-8.25 , which qualified her for the MidA mer ica n Conference C h a m pion s h ip s in February. The girls will want to continue to build

on that meet in December. “That meet was important for us in gaining experience on that track,” said Coach Lou Snelling. “That will be the host of the MAC championships in February.” The BG opener will host six teams — Bowling Green, Dayton, Toledo, Western Michigan, Ball State and Indiana-Purdue University Fort Wayne. The size of this meet will give the Falcons some good competition early in the season. Although every athlete competing Saturday will want to win their race, they know that the main goal is to keep improving every day. “I am very happy with the size of this meet,” coach Snelling said. “This is the girls’ opportunity to show us something.” As t he M AC has
changed t heir playof f system for this year the girls, the coaching staff and fans will be excited to see how they compete throughout the year and see how far they can go into the playoffs. “There will be more girls in uniform this year than there were last year,” Snelling said. “Our goal is to send as many girls as possible to the MAC championships and to see the drive, competitiveness in them and the ability to step up on big days.”

need for coaches to jump ship early and would be fair to the players and programs. It seems like everybody wins ... well, sort of. Like any policy, there would be unintended consequences. In this hypothetical case, schools that failed to make bowl games
would lose their ability to recruit at the conclusion on their season — essentially pushing the offseason further into the distance. This would also discourage high school athletes as they wouldn’t be able to be sign or receive scholarships until well after their sea-
son ends, which is a couple months before NCAA bowl season ends. A not her possibilit y would be the NCAA establish the early contract signing to begin during the college regular season instead of the bowl season. However, neither of

these really will stop the programs that receive the new coaches. Programs will still demand new coaches in December and if other coaches do not accept, they could lose the job opportunity as well serious money. Coaches will always
have an internal struggle between leaving early for themselves or staying on for the sake of the program. However, in my eyes, a coach that is planning on leaving post-bowl game, wouldn’t really be the best option to coach the bowl game.

LOCKOUT From Page 7 one of the main objectives of a business is to turn a profit. The system set under the old CBA had its flaws that needed to be fixed. But a cost of fixing them didn’t need to be the first half of this season. Salary cap circumvention with front-loaded contracts, small-budget teams being forced to spend more money on player salaries than they could afford due to the salary floor, those things could have — and should have — been taken care of long
before the CBA expired. The thing that will always irk me about this particular work stoppage is what seemed like a general disregard for fans and arena workers, the two parties hurt the most by this work stoppage. In their squabble about how to divide $3.3 billion, the league and the players seemed to forget about the people who pay their own hard-earned money so that there would be $3.3 billion to fight over. Now, to their credit, several teams have issued statements to their fans publicly apologizing for the lockout.
A nd, to his credit, C om m i s sioner Ga r y Bettman did the same thing. But you know the saying “talk is cheap”? With three work stoppages in under 20 years, that’s what comes to my mind when I read his apology. It’s like the kid who always gets in trouble, then promises his parents it won’t happen again every time: His word means very little. But, at least now people get to formulate their opinions about Bettman and the rest of the people involved in the lockout, while actually watching hockey.

Zoo as a curator of birds and has held the position as a general curator and director for the Central Park Zoo in New York City. If you want to progress in the zoo world, you’re going to have to be prepared to move around, Sailer said. “Being successful in the zoo world is all about networking and connections,” Sailer said. “Sometimes you just have to be persistent.” The marine and reptile labs in the Life Sciences
Building on campus provides hands-on experience and is valuable to students, Sailer said. “This is a really neat campus,” he said. “If I had known about this as a kid, this is where I would’ve wanted to go to school.” Senior Jayme Weglarski and Marine Biolog y Association president said Sailer enjoyed the facilities in the building and wanted to give a talk to students after visiting the University in November. “It seems like he really wants to help students out to get experience in zoos,” Weglarski said.

Sailer also told students interested in working for zoos and aquariums that they must be prepared for anything. During hurricane season while working in Miami in 2005, Sailer said he had to move all of the f lamingos into the bathroom of the zoo. Having celebrities visit the Central Park Zoo was a common occurrence, he added, including the president of Mongolia. “It’s been a lot of fun, I wouldn’t pick anything else,” Sailer said. “Everyday is different, it’s what I really enjoy.”
