Conference to explore diversity Faculty Senate denounces Latino Issues Conference to offer insight for people of any color on Wednesday By Amirah Adams Reporter

The 20th Annual Latino Issues Conference will be taking place Wednesday in the Union. Ray Plaza, associate director of Multicultural Affairs is this year’s conference chair. “The conference is designed to bring faculty, students, staff and

community members together to discuss issues impacting the Latino community,” Plaza said. “It’s a combination of education, awareness and interaction.” The goal of the conference is to cover issues all across the spectrum of diversity. “The Latino Student Union’s slogan is ‘Not Latino, Not a Problem,’” Plaza said. “This conference is not only for Latinos, it’s

open to everyone.” The conference will be addressing issues that impact not only Latino communities, but other communities as well. An estimated 300 people attended the conference last year. Plaza hopes to have the same amount or more attend this year. “We hope to have numbers

hen the Bowling Green Police Division became the first agency to be accredited in northwest Ohio, it strived to maintain its standards of excellence for more than 20 years after. The division was most recently reaccredited in August by CALEA, the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, and is one of 53 law enforcement agencies in Ohio that is accredited. “It means we’re meeting the most up-to-date professional standards in law enforcement,” said Chief Brad Conner. “It’s something I believe sets us apart from other agencies, shows a level of excellence.” To be accredited by CALEA, law enforcement agencies must have policies addressing

fter roughly 10 years of reform, the Bowling Green Fire Division achieved accreditation despite being short staffed for major emergencies. On March 10, the division became the 10th fire agency in Ohio to gain that status from Commission on Fire Accreditation International. But it was a process the division had to fight for, said Capt. Doug Isaacson, accreditation manager for the division. One snag the division encountered was the requirement of having 15 responders to a major emergency such as a fire. It can only provide 11 due to budget constraints. “A creative solution is to use the surrounding departments for mutual aid, which offsets that [requirement],” he said. “We don’t have many big emergencies, but it was an uphill battle and we fought the commission [to meet the requirement].”

ISSUES From Page 1 equivalent to last year,” Plaza said, “but preferably more.” The theme for this year’s conference is “Embracing our Past and Creating our Present.” It is also presented in both English and Spanish. Junior Sarah Ghose has never attended the conference, but would like to go because it represents part of her culture. “It definitely sounds like something I’d want to go to,”

Union on Tuesday as a fundraiser for the radio station. A lex Wohl, junior Te l e c o m m u n i c a t i o n s major and music director, said that the University gives the station money but it isn’t enough to cover other costs such as licensing fees and equipment

costs. “The money will go to things to help us strengthen our broadcast,” he said. Because promotion companies send the station so many CDs, the station decided to sell its surplus. From 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. students were able to come browse through various

genres and purchase a single CD for 50 cents or $5 to fill a bag. Some genres of music consisted of hip hop, country, indie, pop, punk and metal. Alison McDonald, who works for WBGU, was there

Ghose said. “I’m 90 percent Puerto Rican so it’s definitely something I’d be interested in.” Other students, such as sophomore Lana Adams, who do not have that same connection in culture, but still think it would be an interesting event. “It sounds cool,” Adams said. “I would probably go to something like that.” The conference is free, excluding the luncheon and Gala. The luncheon is $15 and will be taking place at noon. The Gala, which will

involve dinner and dancing, will be from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Both will be in the Union Ballroom. Poet Richard Blanco will be speaking at the event, as well as to different English classes throughout the week. There will also be educational sessions throughout the day on the third floor of the Union. Plaza described the conference as an opportunity for anyone who wants to learn a little more or experience Latino poets and Latino culture.

There will be vendors and different campus and community organizations represented at the event. The conference will be in the Union from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. It will start off in the Multipurpose Room and disperse into other areas of the Union throughout the day. Plaza wants students to attend as much of the conference as possible. “Our hope is that they’ll be able to attend different aspects of the conference and gain something from the experience,” Plaza said.

Women’s basketball comes to end with loss to Rutgers during Women’s National Inviation Tournament; season sets record By Tara Jones Assistant Sports Editor

With a 50-55 loss to Rutgers University on Monday night, the Falcons’ season came to an end. The Falcons finished with an overall record of 30-5 and said goodbye to three seniors: Jillian Halfhill, Alexis Rogers and Jill Stein. BG head coach Jennifer Roos said she was proud her team brought the game down to the wire. She said the crowd of 2,649 deserved a good game and they got one. “We had our chances tonight. We really had our chances, and it’s funny, when you think back to how kids finish their careers … there’s always tears involved,” Roos said. “We’re not in tears tonight. We had a lot of mad kids because we had our chances to win, and that’s kind of a bittersweet pill to swallow.”

Roos said what brought her closest to tears was that the team could not get the victory for the fans that came out. She said she thought the Falcons could pull off the victory with after Halfhill’s one-handed shot from behind the arc as the shot clock expired that send the crowd into a frenzy, bringing the team within three points. However, the team was unable to finish on ensuing possessions. “Our team really came together after being number 65,” Roos said. “This is the latest we’ve ever played in Bowling Green women’s basketball history. I’m proud of our 30 wins, but selfishly, I’ll tell you we wanted 31.” Rogers, a redshirt senior, said it hasn’t quite hit her yet that her time in a BG uniform is over. She said she couldn’t have chosen a better school the second time

Falcons to travel to Cincinnati Women’s basketball season ends, still season to remember with memorable moments for match with Bearcats Mike Frank announced MAC East Pitcher of the week By Brett Creamer Assistant Sports Editor

Bowling Green will travel to Cincinnati to play the Bearcats on Wednesday night. The Bearcats enter the game with a 9-16 overall record and a 0-5 record in conference play. The Bearcats are led by sophomore Ian Happ who has a season average of .348 and a team high 19 RBIs. The orange and brown enter this matchup with an 8-16 record on the season. The Falcons are coming off of a series victory against Northern Illinois where they won two of three games. This made the Falcons 2-4 in the Mid American Conference, which is tied for fourth with the Miami Redhawks in the East. Bowling Green’s pitcher Mike Frank earned MAC East Pitcher of the Week after his performance against Northern Illinois this past weekend. This is the second time this season that the Falcons have earned this honor. Along with Frank, Brett Fitzwater and Chris Miller earned co-Pitchers of the Week when they threw a combined no-hitter against Bucknell. Frank pitched the Falcons out of their five-game losing streak by throwing seven innings and allowing one unearned run. The senior waved three Huskies and allowed just one hit during his dominant performance.

While Frank earned his first win of the season, he also moved up in the Bowling Green record books. Currently, Frank stands third alltime for innings pitched in a career with 260.2, behind Kyle Knoblauch who is in second with 274.1 innings pitched. Kip Young stands in first with 295 innings pitched, which could soon be passed by Frank. Along with innings pitched, Frank also moved into seventh this weekend for all-time strikeouts with 181 for his career. With 21 punch-outs already this season, Frank is just 18 away from entering top three all-time in strikeouts for a career in Bowling Green history. Five Falcon starters are batting over .300 through the first 24 games this season. One is Senior Jeremy Shay, who is batting .314 leads the orange and brown with 11 extra base hits and 17 RBIs. The Falcons’ bullpen has also played a vital role so far this season. Reliever Jason Link has an ERA of .56 in 16 innings pitched so far this season. Ethan McKenney has a team high three saves to go along with his 1.72 ERA this season. After winning two of three games this past weekend the Falcons look to keep momentum going at Marge Schott Stadium tonight at 6 p.m. against the Bearcats.

CAMERON TEAGUE SPORTS EDITOR In sports there are good teams who have good seasons and then there are great teams that have special seasons. This year’s women’s basketball team falls into the category of a great team who had a special season. What makes a team great? Duke head men’s basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski says it best I believe. “There are five fundamental qualities that make every team great: communication, trust, collective responsibility, caring and pride … Any one is individually important. But all of them together are unbeatable,” Krzyzewski said. Before the run to the quarterfinals of the WNIT you could argue that the Falcons were already having a special year going 26-5 and 13-0 at home. Some of the moments that happened this season for this team though, make you sit and wonder who is writing this stuff. It started with the Falcons first game of the season, a 63-52 win in New York against The University of Michigan. This game was just the start of an eye opening year from

point guard Jillian Half hill as she scored 18 points and shot 50 percent from the f loor. Also it was a great BG season debut for NC State transfer Erica Donovan as she scored 15 points on 5-9 shooting. Guard Deborah Hoekstra then jumped in on the action as she finished the last six games of the non-conference schedule as hot as humanely possible. She averaged 14 points a game and shot 58 percent from the field, including 56 percent from behind the arc. Included in those six games were two 19 point games against The University of Massachusetts and University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. As Mid-American Conference play started and Hoekstra cooled off we began to see senior forward Alexis Rogers cement herself as a MAC player of the year candidate. No performance was bigger than the 24 points and seven rebounds she had at home against Eastern Michigan to give her 1000 points for her career. She was later named First Team All-MAC. Fellow senior Jillian Halfhill was just as impressive. Although she was second on the team in scoring and led the team in assists, it was not her stats that made her standout. Her ability late in games to find a way to will her team to a victory is what made her special. You can’t

talk about that ability without mentioning her game-winning layup against The University of Akron to give the Falcons the outright MAC regular season championship. She also landed on the First Team All-MAC list. You take all of that and it is easy to miss that we may have seen two underclassmen turn into superstars right before of our eyes. Miriam Justinger and Donovan have imprinted themselves in the Falcon fans minds for good after the year they had. Donovan stood out early in her first year as a Falcon with her game against Michigan. In the second round of the WNIT Donovan stepped up once again scoring 22 points in the win over St. Bonaventure. Justinger may have showed glimpses last year of being a superstar, but this year they were more like photos. She had a gift for coming up big when her teammates needed her most. No run more special than in the first round of the WNIT when she scored 22 points and followed that with 17 in the second round. While Roos and the coaching staff will soon begin to prepare for next year, this year will not be soon forgotten by anybody. This was a special year, a special group and has been a special postseason run and those only come around once in a while.

Group projects painful, needed Cassie Sullivan FORUM EDITOR

Group projects. You love them, hate them and have to deal with them. Some professors avoid them and other professors act like it’s the best thing in the world. While in theory it’s a good way for students to learn how to work well with others, it’s hard to do while in college. Some students just have to worry about class, while others have to worry about the commute outside of the general area and some students have jobs to get themselves through school. At times, it becomes difficult for students to find time outside of class to meet, so everything is done through emails and text messages, while some go ahead and meet in person, even though parts of the group can’t meet or it’s only for a short period

A few days ago, I was sitting in class listening to a lecture, only to notice a student watching basketball highlights on ESPN during the entire class period. The situation highlighted a crucial question of higher education in our society. Are four-year college degrees being forced upon our youth, even those who are clearly not qualified for it? After all, how am I supposed to know that I won’t be subsidizing the lifestyle of the above mentioned incompetent oaf? Don’t mistake my attendance in this college as a vote of confidence in its entire student base, some of which is simply incompetent, even though it is worth noting the University does have a portion of exceptional students, followed by faculty and staff. Given current situations, college students should be asking themselves the following questions: What marketable skills does the average college graduate have that they can market to their prospective employers?

of time. Sometimes, nothing gets done. Or it’s very productive—either way, it can be time consuming. Then, there are group projects for online classes. For some reason, this seems like a good idea, even though it’s a challenge to get some people to respond to emails and messages, causing more problems than it’s worth. For a bunch of students, the experience from working in a group setting doesn’t come from in class experience, but from working side jobs in food services and or retail, if not through internships or co-ops for their majors. The few jobs I’ve held down for the past couple of years have taught me how to work with other people, not group projects that cause more stress than it’s been worth.

“Much of our progress as Americans is contributing to our open policies and acceptance of diversity.”

How has the growing number of college graduates contributed to the increase in inequality of wealth? Why am I ultimately here to begin with? Students pursue a college degree for a variety of purposes, some of which relate to job prospects, while others are simply to escape home. Many students are comfortable expressing rage at the higher income executives in our society, but would any of them aspire to become them? It crosses me that too many students seek a lifestyle of comfort and ease instead of challenge and personal growth. In addition to this, we have created an educational structure that seeks to emphasize pursuing low value degrees. Instead of creating exceptional students, college programs are getting in the habit of creating commodi-

ties. Majors such as Sports Ma nagement a nd Communications are flooding the workplace with an excess of graduates but a shortage of job positions to meet supply. Unemployment isn’t related to the lack of cooperation by our politicians as much as it’s related to the growing incompetence of our educational systems. As a society we almost demand that students attend a four-year university to obtain a degree and half of the specializations we recruit them for have minimal market value or job placement. The problem isn’t that university students aren’t capable individuals, but that the majority of them aren’t contributing to the bulk of America’s white collar progress. Much of our progress as Americans is contributing to our open policies and acceptance of diversity. In order to be competitive, college students in America need to reevaluate the purpose for the education and decide where their best chance of getting a return on their investment will be.

Universal healthcare better for society Paul Mckenzie COLUMNIST

March 31 was the deadline to sign up for legislation that will doom this nation. In fact, those who signed up are, in my opinion, treasonous. Yes, the deadline to sign up for the Affordable Care Act was on Monday and I for one am waiting for the apocalypse. I am not some kind of crazy who believes in zombies, wears a tinfoil hat, or listens to Glenn Beck. I also am not being entirely truthful though; the whole first paragraph was total nonsense. Over 6 million Americans now have health insurance or better insurance that they previously did not. This is momentous. This is historic as the third major step toward socialized medicine, after Medicare and Medicaid. I am ecstatic, as all Americans should be. The Supreme Court has ruled a law passed by both Congress, signed by the President. Despite these facts, the Republicans are completely freaking out about this reality. Faced with the fact, the conservatives do what they always do: smear, obfuscate and whine.

This is classic Republican politics since the rise of Newt Gingrich in 1994. If they do not get their way all of the time, they lie, lie and if that does not work, lie some more. The Republican Party has always been and will always be the party of big business. They and the private health insurance industry are perfect bed mates; one makes money off sick people and the other collects campaign contributions from those who profit off sick people. The US is the only developed nation in the world without socialized medicine. On top of this fact is that many lesser-developed nations in the world also have cradle-to-grave health care. This is our largest national disgrace. Obamacare was and is a giant step toward rectifying this travesty. So who is against this great law? Only those who profit of sickness and death. The health insurance industry directly profits from it and the Republicans profit by proxy. Anyone can see that more people insured and living better is a benefit not just to the U.S. but for humanity. One has to seriously question those against access to healthcare. Are they wanting people to die? Are they wanting our citi-

zens to suffer? Are they so selfish that they truly could care less if they have healthcare while others don’t? The answer to all three questions is yes. The Republican-controlled House of Representatives has now voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act 50 times. 50 times they have wasted taxpayer’s dollars to engage in this sick piece of political sideshow theater. They do this knowing Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy will appear before their vote means a thing. But what if their vote was somehow successful? How do you repeal a law once it has been implemented and one in 50 Americans has signed up for it? The answer is you cannot. They know this and any American with any intellect at all can see through this. The fact that there is still is a significant population among us that cannot look past these blatant lies is beyond troublesome. It also makes me worry about this nation’s long-term viability as a serious player on the world stage. It is time to reject lies and embrace truth. All we have to do is pay attention.

County museum to flaunt additions with ‘Spin into Spring’

THE BG NEWS SUDOKU

Historical center opens for season on Saturday, will feature quilting, ‘I love the 80s’ exhibit By Kathryne Rubright Reporter

The Wood County Historical Center and Museum will be highlighting several updates to the museum at its Spin into Spring event on Saturday. The museum closed for the winter in December, and the spring opening will feature demonstrations and new exhibits added over the winter. “The big change is the opening of the log cabin,” said Kelli Kling, marketing and events coordinator for the museum. The Buck family log cabin was relocated to the museum grounds from Penta Career Center’s campus in 2007. The cabin is furnished as it would have been around

FIRE From Page 1 Because of the city’s budget limitations, Municipal Administrator John Fawcett said adding more staff is not an option. “I don’t anticipate [the division’s accreditation] will change the budgeting process,” Fawcett said. “Personnel is the largest expense and we try to balance the budget based on realities.” If a major emergency does occur, the division has to rely on the surrounding cities departments, which poses difficulties. “We don’t have full-time departments around us,” Isaacson said. “If we need help, it could be a while before we get help on the scene.” The average response time for fire rescue is five minutes; if there is a delay in getting enough firefighters there, a fire can get out of control, he said. “If we’re quicker to the scene, we’ll be more effective on getting positive outcomes,” Isaacson said. One way the division is improving its response time is to shorten the time it takes to receive an emergency call

1865, Kling said. There will be quilting demonstrations on a loom in the cabin, while inside the museum there is a new gallery space which will have a quilt exhibit. The exhibit is in conjunction with the Wood County 4-H’s Quilt Square Trail, a series of large plywood quit squares that can be found outside around the county, including at the museum. There is also a room inside dedicated to the history of 4-H in Wood County, said Jenny Morlock, 4-H program assistant. “Having a history from 1919 till now is quite a longevity,” Morlock said. With more than a thousand kids currently in 4-H in Wood County, it’s important for them to know where it

and get the ambulances and fire crews out of the station, he said. Improving this time was included in the criteria for accreditation. “They’re not substantial leaps, but it shaves seconds off,” Isaacson said, noting that every second counts when it comes to responding to a call. Getting accredited, however, does not just encompass emergencies, but the facilities and policies of the fire division. “The whole process looked at everything we do in emergencies and non-emergencies against model standards,” Isaacson said. “The whole process is constant quality improvement and in five years we’ll go through it again.” To gain accreditation, some of the requirements the division had to meet was to update its strategic plan, undergo peer review and meet roughly 250 different criteria. To retain its accreditation, an agency must go through the process every five years. While Isaacson is proud of the division’s accomplishment, he still said there is a long way to go. “Just because we have a plaque doesn’t mean we’re through with the process,”

started, Morlock said. Making the past relevant to the present is a mission of the museum. “It’s not the dusty old past,” Kling said. “We want to show our history, but also make it relevant.” One way of doing that is through the “I love the 80s” exhibit, Kling said. This exhibit compares the 1880s and 1980s. “People my age like to walk through and say ‘Oh my gosh, I remember that from when I was a kid,’” Kling said. The exhibit is also nice because people can actually touch the objects from the 1980s, Kling said. When people can touch an object or see a demonstration, it makes history more exciting, Kling said.

Isaacson said. “We put a lot of work into it and it’s not over. The message that is sent to the community is that the city services provided are constantly in flux and we’re constantly trying to improve them.” To continue to be an efficient division, both Isaacson and Chief Stephen Meredith said extra staff is the biggest improvement they can make. The city realizes that eventually we will need a third station,” Meredith said. Currently, there is one located on Thurstin Avenue and one on Pearl Street near the Wood County Hospital. “We know we don’t have enough manpower and the city knows. It’s just not economically feasible.”

tions seem to be one way to make history exciting. “I don’t know what it is . . . [but students] remember the blacksmith when they get back to school,” said Bob Willman, a board member of the Northwest Ohio Blacksmiths. “All boys that age want to make swords.” He will be one of roughly a dozen blacksmiths demonstrating the craft on Saturday. Willman has used his blacksmithing skills to make improvements around the property. This includes crafting a mechanism to hang cooking pots at adjustable heights over the fire in the log cabin. Spin into Spring will occur on Saturday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Donations of $4 for adults and $1 for children are suggested.

Student groups maintain gardens Freedom student organization, The Common Good donate produce to those in need

By Janel Hlebak Reporter

W hile some University students settle for fastpaced food and lifestyles, others appreciate a more natural approach. Freedom student organization, along with the local community center, The Common Good, work together to create and maintain local community gardens in the Bowling Green area. The garden project was created in 2009 by Freedom, but ceased to be kept up. Adam Vaughn, commu-

SENATE From Page 1 posals. Accenture is a private consulting firm that the Un iversit y cont racted to find ways for the University to reduce costs and increase revenues. The Accenture proposals for the Bookstore include consolidating to one floor, moving many services online, potentially eliminating the brick and mortar location and outsourcing book purchasing and rental services to private companies. “We strongly argue against the Accenture bookstore recommendations,” said Darke, instructor in Math and Statistics Department. “They’re misunderstanding of the vision of the BGSU Bookstore.” After Darke read the statement, Senate members discussed the outcomes of enacting these proposals. Some concerns were that it would harm retention, as the store is a popular stop for those on campus for tours. Others were concerned that the loss of the Bookstore would rob the University of part of its identity. Students can buy T-shirts and other University gear

“I think people are losing a sense of connection with where their food comes from.” Adam Vaughn | Manager nity garden coordinator and manager, was proud of the garden’s current state and the progress of the group. “I think people are los-

“They’re misunderstanding of the vision of the BGSU Bookstore.” Ann Darke | Faculty Senate there to express their school pride. Bookstore Director Jeff Nelson was also there to answer questions. One point he raised is that Accenture’s report lacked important detail, like how much money the proposals would save. “It didn’t really get into a lot of specifics on where the savings would be earned,” Nelson said to the Senate. Rather than consolidate or eliminate the space, Nelson suggested “there is opportunity for us to use the existing space in a different way.” Alex Solis, the president of the Undergraduate Student Government, told the Senate that many students are buying books online, and that he thinks Bookstore “usage has declined.” “With that being said, I think a bookstore should have a place on this campus,” Solis said. Darke also announced

ing a sense of connection with where their food comes from,” Vaughn said. “Having local gardens helps people get back to nature.” The Common Good and Freedom have two gardens currently operating in Bowling Green, one at Peace Lutheran Church on West Wooster Street and another at the First United Methodist Church on East Wooster Street. The gardens are funded by the Common Good, which has a garden fund for anything that needs to be bought, Vaughn said. They also have a partner-

ship with Toledo Grows, which supplies them with seeds and starter plants, as well as accepts public donations. The garden supply is meant to show Freedom and Common Good members they can grow and create their own food and cut out “the middle man.” The groups also donate some of the food they grow to local causes. “The Cocoon Shelter, Martha’s Kitchen and the local food pantry have all received donations from

that Senate members can nominate themselves or others for positions for next academic year. Darke herself was nominated for Senate secretary, a position now held by Elizabeth Wood, librarian at Jerome Library. Steve Cady was also nominated for Senate vice chair, a position now held by Joel O’Dorisio, instructor in the Chapman Learning Community. Members were initially hesitant to speak up at the meeting, as only a few positions received nominations, but Darke assured them they will have until April 11 to nominate someone. She encouraged everyone to nominate at least one person to make the process go smoothly. During the meeting, Senate Chair Sheri Wells-Jensen, associate professor in the English Department, presented the feedback from members during the previous March 4 meeting, when members were asked to get in groups and discuss how to accommodate changing enrollment. “I went through and looked for themes,” WellsJensen told the Senate. Some of the suggestions the University is already doing, while “some

are areas in which the Accenture committees ... and elsewhere have said, ‘Yeah, these are things we need to be doing,” WellsJensen said. T hese sug gest ions include finding support for families, attracting students early, attracting international students and transfer students, improving advising, and creating new programs. The full list with more specifics is on the Faculty Senate’s page on bgsu. edu. Senate member Dave Border, Associate Professor in the Department of Engineering Technologies, presented two curriculum modification requests on behalf of the Committee on Academic Affairs, which he chairs. One is a new specialization for the Applied Health Science degree, allowing registered nurses who have earned an Associate degree to use technical hours as professionals to satisfy specialization requirements. The second creates a secondary transition certificate program, which, upon completion, allows the student to apply for a State of Ohio Transitionto-Work Endorsement. “There is going to be a market for this,” Border said.

POLICE From Page 1 certain areas of law enforcement, such as use of force or the use of warning shots. The police division, which has a staff of 58, also pays an annual affiliation fee of $4,065, Conner said. CALEA requires agencies to seek reaccreditation every three years. During the reaccreditation process this past August, CALEA sent a team of assessors for a three-day inspection of the Division. “They examine us top to bottom,” Conner said, making sure “we’re doing the things we’re saying we’re doing.” During this time, the assessors analyze files documenting how the division adheres to CALEA’s standards, conduct public hearings where citizens can provide feedback on the division and participate in ridealongs with the officers. Assessors are commonly other law enforcement officials. For instance Conner, along with Lt. Brad Biller and Maj. Tony Hetrick, are some of these assessors for other departments. Hetrick himself was not available for an interview for this article because he was out assessing another law enforcement agency for CALEA. Biller is also the accreditation manager for the division, meaning he ensures compliance with CALEA’s standards, or, as he calls it, “quality control.” “It establishes some validity to the idea that what we’re doing is the right thing to do,” Biller said of the Division’s accredited status. The Bowling Green Fire Division also recently received accreditation, making Bowling Green one of seven cities in Ohio with both an accredited police and fire division. The city joins Columbus and Cincinnati in this distinction. “We can rest assured that those two safety organizations are doing the best they can,” Biller said. “The people that are running city government are committed to the services being consistent with best practices.” CALEA was created in 1979 as a way to ensure certain professional standards are met in law enforcement. It is a product of the joint effort the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives, the National Sheriffs’ Association and the Police

“The ultimate goal, as we say, is to be the golden standard in public safety.” Christie Goddard | Manager Executive Research Forum. CALEA serves as the only independent accrediting agency at the national or international level for these law enforcement agencies, said Christie Goddard, regional program manager for CALEA. “We are about professionalism in policing,” Goddard said. “The ultimate goal, as we say, is to be the golden standard in public safety.” CALEA’s standards are constantly being modified to address current law enforcement trends, such as technological growth. “Let’s face it, law enforcement has changed in 20 years,” Conner said. “We’re constantly keeping up to date with what those changes might be.” One recent area the Division has had to address is the use of personal video cameras. Some officers in the nation have begun attaching personal recording devices to themselves while on duty, another area CALEA will need to tackle. “We are constantly looking at the shift in what’s happening,” Goddard said. “We’re always trying to stay on the forefront of it.” Ohio is one of 17 states for which Goddard serves as a liaison between the commission and individual agencies. “I would say Ohio is one of our larger regions,” Goddard said. In addition to the 53 law enforcement agencies in Ohio accredited by CALEA, another 20 are in the assessment process. “That’s large compared to some of our other regions,” Goddard said. For comparison to neighboring states, Kentucky has three law enforcement agencies accredited by CALEA and Indiana has 16. “It’s not an easy thing to become accredited, and any agency that receives accreditation should be proud, and the citizens should be proud,” Goddard said. Conner echoed this sentiment, expressing a sense of pride that comes with having this distinction since 1993. “It speaks to the vision of the city forefathers,” Conner said. “It speaks to the leadership within this community to be able to do forward thinking.”

to help but also shop to add to her collection. “I came to specifically to find Indie music,” McDonald said. “I knew that I could find stuff that isn’t mainstream here.” Some CDs that she was interested in buying were “Fancy Footwork” by Chromeo and “War Child” by Heroes. Artists ranged from The George Bouchard Group to Joe Locke and Jalie Loren. During the sale, music selections were played and a free local hardcore punk sampler CD was offered. Sophomore Melanie Bracco came to the CD sale to hear some of the music selections. “I know that WBGU always plays great music, so I came to just hang out and hear good songs,” Bracco said. Other fundraising activities will be later on in the week. Currently, WBGU is hosting 88 Straight, which tries to get people to donate money to the station until Friday. Ellie Decker, who works for promotions for WBGU strives to make sure the word is out about WBGU and its fundraisers. “We not on ly w a nt t he ca mpu s to k now, but t he com munit y as wel l,” she sa id.

Sophomore Hollie Baker hopes that students not only feel welcomed, but encouraged to use the center and the gardens. “It’s such an open space and you don’t have to be invited, everyone’s always welcome,” Baker said. “It’s nice to get off campus and away from those stresses, it’s kind of like going home.” The next planting day for the community gardens is April 15 at 8 a.m.

SPORTS brief

Softball to play home opener Wednesday against Wright State

The Falcon Softball team will play its home opener at Meserve Field against Wright State on Wednesday. The team is coming off of a 2-2 start in Mac play last weekend. It is the defensive end that the Falcons struggled with last weekend. Three errors and four unearned runs dealt the team a 10-3 loss in the second game against NIU last weekend.

Women’s From Page 3 around. “I don’t know if I’ve ever played in front of a crowd like there was today,” Rogers said. “It fueled my energy and that was exciting. You know, you don’t know if you’re ever going to be able to play in a crowd like this and with people who genuinely love you and who care about you and want to help you.” Rogers said she has enjoyed her time as Falcon, having a great run and being able to grow a lot and make connections with other people. “We were really disappointed about not getting into the NCA A,” Rogers said. “I think that was a lot of people’s dreams, but how many people can say at BG … that they’ve won 30 games in a season. We’re still going to go down in the record books and that’s exciting.” In the closing weeks of the season, Roos said she saw a sense of urgency and

Errors in the opening game against Western Michigan also dealt the team a loss last weekend in a shutout 1-0. A total of 19 runs were allowed last weekend in the 2-2 split. The Falcons will look to capitalize on a Wright State team that has been able to score over five runs this season just three times out of 25 games. The team will also look to continue their strong showing on offense. Early on in the season the Falcons struggled on offense, failing to capitalize on players on base. Now, offense does not seem to be a problem. The team was able to score in all but one game last weekend and in the open-

ing game against NIU seven of the nine starters recorded a hit. Six freshmen combined for eight hits in their last game, totaling seven runs. That seven runs was the fourth highest the Falcons have scored this season. The upcoming games will be the first of the season played at Meserve Field in Bowling Green. “There have been some awesome improvements to the field,” head coach Shannon Salsburg said. “We were disappointed that we had to go on the road last weekend. It will be nice for the kids to have their friends come out and have our supporters see the team.”

“I don’t know if I’ve ever played in front of a crows like there was today.” Alexis Rogers | Forward

ownership in the team’s three seniors. “Those three have been a mainstay for us. I had a different script written for the ending for those three seniors, and I think they had a different script written as well.” Ha l f h i l l f i n ished her c a reer 6 8 poi nt s shy of 1,000 ca reer poi nts. Roos sa id she scored less t ha n 30 her f reshma n yea r, so she nea rly reached t hat accolade in just t hree yea rs. Rogers finished with over 1,250 career points. Roos said she commends Rogers as a student teacher who worked a full day and then came to practice every day. Stein’s name became synonymous with March Madness for the team, Roos said. She said Stein

carried the team through WNIT play last year and stepped up in BG’s last two games this season. Stein received little playing time her freshman year but has progressed each year to earn her spot in the starting lineup. “This group right here, this 2013-2014 women’s basketball team with those three kids as seniors, Jillian Halfhill, Jill Stein and Alexis Rogers, they’re in the record book,” she said. This class became the ninth in program history to earn 100 wins, all of the players have two MidA merican Conference Championship rings and all have been to postseason play, whether it is the NCAA or the WNIT. “I’m not going to compare this class to others because this class is that special, this group is that special,” Roos said. “I’m very proud of this group for what they’ve done not only for the program, but for the University and for each other. They’ve left their mark.”
