Hockey season ends with loss to Notre Dame Irish beat Falcons 1-0 Friday, 4-3 Saturday By Ryan Satkowiak Senior Reporter

The BG hockey team’s season ended at the hands of Notre Dame in the second round of playoffs this weekend, capping off the final season of Central Collegiate Hockey Association play. The Irish swept the Falcons, winning game one Friday 1-0 in overtime, and taking game two a day later, 4-3. Bryan Rust scored 1:22 into overtime in the first game to give the Irish the victory. Notre Dame outshot the Falcons 36-22 on Friday. BG goalie, Andrew Hammond, kept the Falcons in the game, making multiple big saves and keeping the Irish off the board through regulation. “We knew he was going to have to give us a chance in tonight’s game, and he did,” said coach Chris Bergeron. “He was back on top of his game.” The Falcons helped Hammond out by blocking 16 shots. When the defense wasn’t blocking the shot, they kept from screening Hammond, allowing him to get a clear look at the puck. “I thought our [defense] did a good job of opening up,” Hammond said. “I thought they did a good job of blocking shots.” Rust’s goal came after a turnover by BG. He was wide open in the slot, beating Hammond with a backhand after receiving a pass from Jeff Costello. “They’re a team that exposes you if you don’t take care of things,” Bergeron said. “Too many times tonight, we didn’t, and ultimately it cost us.” Notre Dame goalie, Steven Summerhays, stopped 22 shots to record the shutout. Saturday, Rust scored his second of the weekend to get Notre Dame on the board first, his first of two goals in the game, en route to a 4-3 win for the Irish. Bryce Williamson had two goals and an assist for BG, and Ben Murphy scored once and added an assist. “It was a tough game, we put everything we had into it,” Williamson said. “We just came up a little bit short.” Notre Dame scored twice in the first period. Rust’s goal came 6:44 into the period and Nick Larson scored six minutes later. However, the Falcons’ special teams helped them get out of that hole. BG scored two power play goals in the second period — from Williamson and Murphy — to tie the game entering the third. “Our power play kind of got us back in the game there,” Williamson said. “But in the third period there we got caught in penalty trouble and they capitalized.” Rust scored the go-ahead goal midway though the third period on a penalty shot. The penalty shot was awarded when a BG player closed his

City Council Representative, Daniel Gordon, is one of the city officials who is an advocate of the idea. “This is an idea that students, parents, long-time residents, local employers and I have all called for,” Gordon said. “We need to support our local business and create more opportunities for students to get off campus and more involved in the Bowling Green community.”

Some students think there are both positives and negatives to the new stop. “I think it can be really convenient for people who want to go downtown and don’t have a car to get there themselves,” sophomore Kelly Savela said. “For some people it’ll be quicker to just walk downtown than it would be to walk all the way to Offenhauer.” Shuttle Services will be able to keep track of the number of students riding the buses and how many students get on and off at the new downtown stop, Kane said. “We now have automated passenger counters on our buses, so we can keep track of the number of riders, where they are getting on, where they are getting off,” Kane said. “We will know the exact times and locations, so that will help us as we continue with this analysis.” Kane is also currently surveying students to find out more about their wants and needs in terms of other shuttle stops.

SCRUM BG Rugby falls to Detroit Tradesmen, looks forward to scrum with Ohio State By Nicholas Vanderpool Reporter

PHOTO PROVIDED

BRIAN KEAN plows through the snow in BG’s opening try in their loss to the Detroit Tradesmen on Saturday.

The BG rugby team found itself on the losing end after a snow y, 31-18 loss to the Detroit Tradesmen Saturday. There was some minor talk about postponing the game due to cold temperatures and three inches of snow, but the two sides decided to battle it out. The game was a stalemate for most of the first half, due to the weather conditions on the playing field. Detroit scored first with a try and conversion, but BG quickly tied it up with a try by eight man Bryan Kean and a conversion kick by prop Dane Szente. Hooker Mike Brown put BG ahead 12-7 when he broke three tackles before scoring a try in the corner of the endzone. Szente added a penalty kick in the last second of the first half to give BG a 15-7 lead. The Falcons were satisfied to go into the half with a two score lead. The harsh conditions would prevent most teams from making a comeback. On a normal day, BG would have finished out the game against an opponent like the Tradesmen, but the backfield has had injuries and in the end, a victory in match against Ohio State next weekend had to take precedent, so BG started to subsitute players. The Falcons were happy to see freshman Justin Farrell, Derec Blogett and Terrance Kidd get some playing time with the starting lineup, but expectations were not too high, as they came against a big, experienced side of senior players. The Director of Rugby, Roger Mazzarella, believes the mistakes made by the young players against Detroit will pay off later in the season when the games are crucial, amidst the hopes of another national title. The second half belonged to the Tradesmen, as they scored four tries and two conversions to erase BG’s lead and win the game. “With the weather conditions and their size, we started to wear down a bit,” said lock Corey Ruth. “It was a good game, just a few tackling errors is what led to our defeat.” BG will look to rebound at home next Saturday against Ohio State. The game is scheduled for 1 p.m. at College Park Rugby Field.

Gymnastics reaches goal in final home meet By Noah Jones Reporter

The BG gymnastics team won their last regular meet of the season, but that was not the biggest factor in the Falcons’ looks of pride and joy for the program. The Falcons beat Western Michigan University with a score of 195.175 to 192.95. Coach Kerrie Beach said at the beginning of the season the team’s goal was to earn a 195. Megan Harrington led BG with a career-high, all-around score of 39.025. “We knew that we had to give

it our all and put it out there because we had nothing to lose,” Harrington said. “We knew that we had to fight with everything we had to get a good score in order to beat them because we knew going into it that it was going to be close.” After the first two events the score was tied at 97.425, but the Falcons kept strong on their beam routines.

Spring break was a lot of fun for me personally, and I’m sure for others as well. I was able to visit parts of the Bourbon trail in Kentucky and hike part of the Daniel Boone Trail with two of my best friends. But as I sat sore-footed and soaked to the bone in my hotel room, I heard via Facebook that Hugo Chavez, the former president of Venezuela, had died. The way I found out though wasn’t via Yahoo news or a CNN Facebook post. I found out when I read the status of one of my friends who was celebrating his death as if they had just won the lottery. When I read the status, I was appalled and I considered scolding this person, but out of friendship and because of a personal principle, I decided not to. Hugo Chavez was hated by the United States because he was a communist leader who was attempting to make more money from the

sale of Venezuelan oil to help improve his nation. It’s an eerie echo of the western portrayal of Mohammad Mosaddegh who was democratically elected prime minister of an oil-rich Iran, but was overthrown by a British-backed coup d’état in 1953 when he tried to nationalize Iranian oil to help build his nation, which would have made oil more expensive in the western nations which had until that time been exploiting Iran. Chavez was routinely painted by many as a dictator à la Fidel Castro or Mao Tse-Tsung, but in fact, he wasn’t. Even if there’s a disagreement concerning the merits of capitalism versus communism, a rational person must accept the fact that he won his elections legitimately, which by definition precludes him from being labeled as a dictator. But even if he had been a despot, or a dictator, or even a mass murderer, celebrating his death after battling cancer is just as morally abhorrent as celebrating the death of any other cancer victim such as a friend, or a grandparent. This reminds me of when Osama Bin Laden was killed. People everywhere were cel-

ebrating and thanking God, and anything else people do when they’re happy. But so many people treated that as another excuse to drink, and anyone who suggested that celebrating the death of Osama Bin Laden might be wrong, was instantly labeled as “un-American.” As I said to one individual back then, if celebrating death is what makes any of us an American, then I am ashamed to be one. There is, always has been and always will be a difference between being glad for the death of someone dangerous and rejoicing about it. President Obama put it best when he said “Justice has been served” calmly and respectfully after learning of what could be considered one of his greatest achievements, and I will always admire him for having the moral integrity to give Bin Laden full Muslim burial rites at sea. It says a lot about us as a society when we celebrate death. What we are doing is disrespecting the somberness of the occasion and turning someone’s death into a macabre spectacle. So in the wake of celebration of the death of Hugo

Chavez, I think America needs to ask itself a question: what gives us the right to claim to be the greatest nation on earth? Is it our Bill of Rights that protects freedoms essential to our citizens? Is it the promise of a better life? Is it the promise of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness? Is it buy-one-get-one-free bath towels at Wal-Mart? It’s debatable, but one thing is for certain: if we celebrate the deaths of our enemies like giddy schoolchildren clamoring over a snow day, then we can be sure that it isn’t moral superiority. We’ve reduced the interplay of the US and foreign nations to a child’s toy soldier game of “good guys” and “bad guys.” It would seem that the conscience of the “greatest nation on earth” could not withstand such hypocrisy. So I say “Rest in Peace, Hugo Chavez” not because I approved of his policies, his actions, or his views, but because I believe all human lives — and deaths — are worthy of the same respect.

Find your passions, stick to them PHILLIP MARTIN COLUMNIST

Writing creatively has many enjoyable functions. Although grueling at times, writing can be a rewarding art once you apply yourself. Before you can enjoy the art of writing, you have to discover your purpose and passion. Discovering your purpose may not be difficult. Write about something you feel strongly about; your favorite genre of music, a social issue or politics. Then, as you dedicate yourself to writing for this purpose, you will develop a passion; a long-lasting desire to make your voice heard through words. If you couldn’t already tell, I’ve developed a passion for writing about my faith. When I first became a columnist in October 2011, I thanked God. I told Him the Forum section would be a great place to express my faith to a big audience. Once you find your purpose,

try to write from within your heart. Be sincere. Try to engross yourself so deeply in your writing that people see your personality in it. One way people can see your heart through your writing is by seeing the end product, which can pay off significantly. My dad told me once that he knew how gifted I am in writing. I always put a part of myself into it, he said. Another testimony of my sincerity came from another guy I know. My column “Don’t Forget: You Are Special, Full of Purpose” had moved him to tears, he said. With an honest effort to be sincere, be willing to open up a little. Openness can show that you are human and humble. Through several columns, most of my anecdotes originate from my personal life. At times, I’ve shared with you my insecurities and weaknesses. I’ve told you my hopes and dreams. I’ve told you my fears and failures. I’ve even expressed my pain and sadness. By sharing these stories, I’ve made myself vulnerable to ridicule and laughter. I’ve showed you how broken of a man I

truly am. Still I love this part of my writing because I always hope it inspires. Be careful, though. Writing licensecomeswithalittlebalance and tact. Sometimes you don’t want to toss “pearls at swine” or share your entire Facebook timeline in a public piece. Even though you might mess up as you passionately write, don’t be discouraged. Keep your head up. Several times I thought about retiring from the Forum. Especially this past fall. I started feeling that my writing became worthless. I started thinking other people thought all of my work was a joke. Despite hearing these things in my mind, which may be obvious lies, I received hope. Whenever I felt down, people started asking me how my writing was coming along. Then, although I felt less support than this past school year, a lot of people kept sending me compliments and encouragement. Along with maintaining hope in your writing, don’t sell yourself short. Give yourself grace. Whether you were meant to write best-selling novels or short opinion columns, this gift God

gave you is valuable. Honestly, I don’t read much, and my reading level probably reflects that. I’m not even a creative writing major, but then (while I have a few grammar pet peeves), I don’t claim to be a grammarian. While I may have these small handicaps, I still offer some flavorful writing. Like me, you should always write with the mindset that your work matters and offers a unique perspective. Then, you will accomplish your dreams. Speaking of dreams, I want to complete my first story. Since starting it on Christmas Day, I have over 10,000 words. I’m trying to tell a romance story with a taste of sci-fi. I’m also asking God to help me incorporate Christian themes. Even if, like me, you don’t desire to write a best-seller, enjoy your writing. For a moment, writing can help distract you from life and clear your thoughts. So keep that pen bleeding!

BG finishes third in Cincinnati meet By Cameron Teague Robinson Reporter

The BG track and field team competed in the Early Bird Relays at the University of Cincinnati Saturday evening. The tea m had mu lt iple women finish in the top of their respective races and events, which ended a good day for the Falcons overall. Natalie Sommer ville won the 400-meter hurdles and Tiera Parker won the triple jump as the BG track and field team placed third out of 11 teams at the seasonopening UC Early Bird Relays. In the unique scoring event, each team’s top two marks were combined for a relay total. The first place team received five points, second place received four and third place received t hree. The Fa lcons scored 79 points to edge

out Xavier, Cedarville and Northern Kentucky. Cincinnati won the event with 145 points, followed by Wright State with 92. “We had positive performances today,” Coach Lou Snelling said. “Our goal was to open up the season well in our first two meets and we took a good step towards that today. We look forward to opening up the rest of the team at NC State in two weeks.” Parker, who was competing in her first collegiate outdoor event, had a strong meet to win the triple jump with a distance of 11.26 meters. It was the first time in her career to complete in the triple jump. She also placed third in the long jump with a distance of 5.31 meters. Sommerville started the 2013 campaign where she left off her freshman season a year ago, setting a new personal best time of 1:03.50 in the 400-meter

hurdles. That time was .08 seconds ahead of her time at the MAC Championships this past year. BG had seven competitors compete in both the 100-meter and the 200meter races with senior Allison Weimer leading the way by placing third in both. Redshirt sophomore Brittany Sinclair followed with a fifth place finish in the 100meter race and freshman Taylor Rambo placed fourth in the 200-race. Freshma n Demet ra Taylor had a strong result in the 100-meter hurdles race by finishing second in a time of 14.57 seconds. Senior Felicia Jefferson placed third in the 400-meter race with a time of 59.13 seconds. The Falcons will try to continue to improve against North Carolina State University when they compete in the Raleigh Relays on March 29-30.

GYM From Page 3 absolutely no doubt in you landings,” Beach said. “You could see it in their eyes — they were ready and we had a huge finale.” This meet was the BG gymnastics’ senior night and it was filled with emotion as the team realized they had to let two of their “family members” leave the team. Sunny Marchand and Monica Eaton completed their undergraduate careers, and the team was sorry to see them go. “I love the seniors so much,” Harrington said. “They are like sisters to me and they have been incredible influences in the gym to all of us and it is definitely going to be weird without them next year.” Eaton’s father, Kevin

Eaton, died July 30, 2012, while Eaton was at the University training for the season. “I won’t forget the phone call I got in August when I heard Monica’s dad passed away,” Beach said. “It was really hard on all of us.” The gymnastics program dedicated its last meet of the regular season to Kevin Eaton as a way to show support of the Eaton family and show how much love and care they have for their teammates. “It means the world to me,” Eaton said. “I have had so much support from the girls and this team. It’s really outstanding.” After the meet, Beach met w it h f reshma n Caroline Ellingboe and her family to tell them she earned a full-ride from the program. Ellingboe was a walk-on this year, and was only expected to compete on bars. After

This meet was special to the Falcons for many reasons. Beach and Harrington said reaching 195 points on senior night was special and they look forward to next year. “Tonight was huge. Senior night is so special and to see them put that 195 up, this will be a very memorable night for our entire program,” Beach said.

University sets occupancy Culture club promotes study outside class, rule for residence halls works with academics Resident Student Association voted to enact policy regarding number of students in rooms By Amber Petkosek Reporter

The University setting a maximum occupancy rule for residence hall rooms may seem like a hassle to some students, but it could have ended with much greater consequences. “Tim Shaal wanted to protect the students, so the fire department doesn’t come in and set a limit,” said Russell Miller, vice president of student concerns for the Resident Student Association. “If the fire department sets a limit and students are caught breaking it students could be charged with a felony.” In a double room a maximum of six students are allowed, a triple room, a maximum of nine students are allowed and in a suite, a maximum of 12 students are allowed, said Tim Shaal, senior associate director of Residence Life. The maximum occupancy rule will be going into effect in August 2013, said Sarah Waters, director of residence life, in an email. Sophomore Aust i n

Graham said, after finding out the possible consequences, the University rule seems fair. “It shows that the Un iver sit y ac t ua l l y cares,” he said. Prior to the occupancy rule the University had no set limit for the number of students allowed in a residence hall room, Shaal said. “We weren’t changing [a prior rule], but we were revising or adding to the handbook,” Miller said. W hen deciding on numbers, Shaal said they looked to other universities for ideas. “We looked to see what other schools were doing and their bench marks by best practice,” he said. Bench marking by best practice is what other institutions and organizations find to be the best solution to things based on experience and research, Shaal said. There are two main reasons why the rule was created, Shaal said. “Number one is safety and number two is the impact it will have on the community,” he said. “It stops large gatherings that cause a disturbance.”

“Tim Shaal wanted to protect the students, so the fire department doesn’t come in and set a limit. If the fire department sets a limit and students are caught breaking it students could be charged with a felony. ” Russell Miller | Vice President of Student Concerns Miller made a presentation at an RSA meeting two weeks prior to Shaal coming in to speak about maximum occupancy. “We were approached simply because [maximum occupancy] deals with the dorms, and that is what RSA deals with,” he said. The members of RSA went to each of the hall councils and asked them how they feel about maximum occupancy, Miller said. “At the next general assembly meeting I asked for general feedback,” he said. The maximum occupancy rule was voted in favor of by RSA with 21 voting yes, 14 voting no and two abstaining, said Brandon Swope, RSA President, in an email. Miller said when he

talks to students about the new rule many have mixed feelings. “The init ia l reaction is that people don’t approve,” he said. “After I explain why we are putting it into effect they accept it.” The rule may be hard to track whether students are following it, Shaal said. “It’s hard to say — each student has to make the choice themselves,” Shaal said. “I hope they follow it because the students voted in favor.” Some students feel that the rule will be completely disregarded after being put into effect. “[Students] don’t care,” Graham said. “If they want to have people over they will.”

By Geoff Burns Reporter

For more than seven years, the Culture Club has promoted the study of culture, history and media for students outside of the classroom to collaborate on. About 30 undergraduate and graduate students from departments such as Popular Culture, Theater and Film, History and many more interested in cultural studies, work together to develop the “Battlegrounds States,” an annual conference hosted at the University, which attracts scholars from around the world. The conference lasts for two days and consists of different panels such as comedy, film, literature and art history, all of which showcase cultural studies. Christopher Wagenheim, member and graduate student, said members of the club will host events in order to raise money to host the “Battleground States,” which takes most of the school year to do. Each conference has a general theme applied. The last conference held in February was “Crossing Boundaries, Revealing Connections: Experiments In Interdisciplina r y Studies,” he said. “We had more than 300 participants and many panels which brought

There were some undergraduate students who hosted a few panels, which turned out to be some of the best panels in the conference, he said. “We’re really an organization that is trying to expand and be interesting and useful to the University community,” Elkan said. “It’s intended to be a way for people to get together outside the classroom and think through cultural studies work.” The members of the club

HEALTH From Page 1 ensure the college is in a position to continue its growth.” Even t houg h t he University is aware of the need to expand the college’s space, it’s all in the planning stages, said Christopher Dunn, interim dean of the college of health and human services. Giving the college more space will allow for more of the college’s programs to move into the building, more classrooms and more student meeting space, Dunn said. “Student experience is one of the first priorities we have in renovations and new additions if it happens,” Dunn said. “One, bring medical labs over and two, increase student space.” Since the medical laboratory science program began, the medical labs have been located in the Life Science Building, where they share biology lab space, Dunn said. Now, they will move with the rest of the college into the health center building. The building will be

renovated to outfit the labs with new technology, Rogers said. “They’ll have state of the art facilities,” he said. The amount of space for students to hang out in will also be increased, Dunn said. Right now there is little to no space for students to congregate, but Dunn is hoping there will be more when the building is remodeled, he said. “[We hope to create] open space in the health center,” Dunn said. “[A] large space where students can congregate before class or after meetings ... [It’ll help] make college much more student friendly.” The college of health and human services isn’t the only academic college whose programs will potentially occupy the building, Rogers said. “There may be additional programs complimentary to the college of health and human services,” he said. “One suggestion is food and nutrition ... but it hasn’t been totally decided.” This w i l l probably be the first area of its k i nd, br i ng i ng prog ra m s toget her in this way, Rogers said.

“It will probably the first one that will be completed,” he said. “We begin to think about students interacting w it h each other who have common interests. I think there’s a lot of power in getting people talking to each other. I think there’ll be great synergy.” In order to bring programs together and allow for more space for the college of health and human ser vices, the building will need to be expanded, Rogers said. “We think we’ll need to enhance the size of the building a little bit,” Rogers said. “[Probably] a modest expanse of the footprint of the building.”
