Dominik Eberle kicks game-winning 30-yard field goal for Aggies
field goal attempt when Utah State went for it all on a fourth and inches at the goal line. Instead of trying for three easy points and a small lead, Jordan Love lined up in the shotgun and a delayed handoff to Gerold Bright lost the Aggies four yards.
“I knew we messed up right there, we didn’t get it in,” Love said.
“but I knew the defense would go out there, get a stop and get us the ball back to go down for the win.”
Luckily for USU, the defense, much-maligned in recent weeks for
its abysmal outings against Air Force and BYU, did come up big. On Fresno State’s final two possessions, including and especially
the crucial one after Utah State’s failure on fourth down, the Bull-
dogs were held to a three-and-out. The latter of those defensive stops gave the Aggies’ offense the ball with 3:05 left to play and good field position, starting at their own 47.
“The defense just kept battling,” USU head coach Gary Andersen
said. “They fought in there, they did what they had to do at the end of the day to make the play. A half a yard short gave us a chance.”
Love put together his best night of the year and one of the better
of his three-year career. The junior completed 30-of-39 passes for
388 yards, two touchdowns and — perhaps most importantly — zero interceptions.
“He was fantastic,” Andersen said of Love. “We have to be ef-
fective through the air to do what we’re going to do to get points on the board. And Jordan was fantastic I think he really held his AP Photo/Gary Kazanjian Utah State’s Dominik Eberle watches his game-winning field goal against Fresno State during an NCAA college football game in Fresno, Calif., Saturday, Nov. 9, 2019.

Utah State showed just enough improvements on offense and
defense to beat Fresno State 37-35 to improve its record to 5-4 and 2-0 in California this season.
Dominik Eberle drilled a 30-yard field goal as time expired to

USU implementing new tools for New committee working with Logan City to exploratory majors improve pedestrian safety around campus By William Bultez NEWS STAFF WRITER
Hundreds of new students each semester struggle with decid-
ing a major, paying tuition, finding a community to fit into or even just passing their chemistry class. For many, these difficulties become too burdensome and they eventually drop out.
But what if there was a proven way to turn these students’ ex-
periences around? What if there was a way to increase student satisfaction and the chances of graduation?
Starting in January 2020, exploratory students at Utah State
University will choose one of six focus areas that will help them get involved on campus and into a major sooner.
Stephanie Hamblin, the exploratory advising director, said
the focus areas are already on the application for fall semester 2020. If a prospective student selects that they are undecided or
exploratory, they will be prompted to choose one of the focus
areas, which will help them narrow down their choices based on their general interests.
The six focus areas are Biological and Environmental Sciences;

With daylight savings in full effect, the sun sets in Logan around
5:30 p.m., causing many Utah State University students to walk around campus and many surrounding areas in the dark.
Kenzie Platt, a student at USU, noticed a lack of street lights
in Logan. “It is hard to see pedestrians at night, especially when
another car is coming in the opposite direction,” she said. “As a pedestrian, I avoid crossing the road because I know how difficult it is for drivers to see me.”
USU Student Association executive vice president, Dexton Lake,
has created a new committee, the Vice President’s Chamber, to promote initiatives that will improve USU’s lighting on campus.
Recently, the committee met with Logan Municipal Council
member Herm Olsen to discuss potential changes to improve pedestrian safety, especially at night.
The proposed changes will increase street lighting along 800

Their plan is to also include opportunities to get students in-
volved with their colleges.
“When students only use classes to declare their major, it’s re-
ally expensive,” said Mykel Beorchia, the director of university advising.

Shaky At Best In past years, some of the big-
gest issues between the city and USU students have been parking and zoning laws.
The city council passed legis-
lation in April 2018 to raise the fines for violations of over occu-
pancy laws that prohibit more than three unrelated residents
from living in the same house. The mayor’s plan included hir-
ing a new intern to inspect and report houses in Logan suspect-
ed of violating zoning laws, proactively enforcing over oc-
cupancy rather than relying on complaints to the Logan police.
“Many students, myself in-
cluded, opposed this measure because we felt it was unneces-
sary and had potential to create
conflict with local officials and law enforcement officers when
none is needed,” Jackson said.
“It also just put students, many of them just 18 years old, at
risk of being evicted from their
house with no knowledge of laws that are in place.”
At the meeting to discuss the
legislation, only about five
students sat in the audience, including Jackson. Another student present was Erik Olson.
Olson lived in a rented house
two years ago with four other
friends. They had planned to live together and found “no other options.”
“The house was huge,” he
said. “The biggest house I’ve
ever lived in, besides my parents’ house. There were like six

Aggies stomp Wildcats in the Spectrum Utah State men’s basketball records largest margin of victory since 2001 By Sydney Kidd SPORTS STAFF WRITER
The Utah State University men’s basketball
team did not take time to mess around during Friday night’s 89-34 win over Weber State University. By the end of the first half alone, the
Aggies led Weber State 48-13. It was the few-
est points Utah State has allowed in a half since Dec. 31, 2014 when it held San Jose State to 12 points.
Sophomore forward Justin Bean had even re-
corded more points than the Wildcats, totaling 15 at halftime.
“That is incredibly difficult to do,” head coach
Craig Smith said. “But our guys were really locked in.”
Utah State also managed to share the ball sig-
nificantly more than they have in recent con-
tests. The team logged 26 assists, the most it has
recorded since Jan. 30 when they had 28 against San Jose State.
“It was just a big emphasis in practice,” Porter
said of ball movement. “Coach Smith always says
you want the ball to have the energy and not the player and I felt like we had that tonight.”
The second half did not fare much better for
the Wildcats, who only made 21.7 percent of their field goals the entire game. The Aggies
were able to force Weber State into 19 turnovers and rack up another 41 points.
“Just the energy and unselfishness that we
played with led to some of these baskets and that’s what got us going,” junior guard Abel Por-
ter said. “It was really nice to see us share the ball, kind of get back to that culture we had built last year…Coach Smith says you want the ball to
have the energy and not the player and I felt like we had that tonight.”
Porter finished the game with a career high
of 10 assists to go with 10 points, the first double-double of his career.
“From last year at this point to where he is now,
it’s almost unheard of,” Smith said of the growth of Porter, who began his Aggie career as a walkon, “him and (former walk-on) Justin Bean.”
Bean led the team with 18 points and had an
also-team high nine rebounds. Bean also led the
team in made field goals, free throw attempts (seven) and made free throws (six).
The team’s performance was drastically differ-
ent compared to Tuesday night’s game against Montana State when the Aggies barely managed
to fend off the Wildcats. Smith attributed it to his players’ ability to own up to mistakes.
“We have great character on our team,” he
said. “Where everyone can look themselves in
the mirror when you’re watching film…and say ‘I have to do better so our team can be better.”
Up next the Aggies will take on Denver on
Tuesday in the Spectrum. The game is scheduled for 7 p.m.

OPINION
PHOTO BY AP Photo/Gillian Flaccus, File In this April 15, 2019, file photo, instructors from Raphael House lead a classroom discussion about consent and healthy relationships with a class of sophomores at Central Catholic High School in Portland, Ore. Most young Americans believe in the value of higher education, but many also believe that a high school diploma alone is enough for success, and they view job training as better preparation than any type of college degree, according to a poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
The best way to learn How do our lives outside the classroom affect our learning inside it? By Taelor Candiloro OPINION COLUMNIST
fle, the perfect song plays. I might be walking
to class, or driving home, or getting ready in the morning. But regardless of what it is I’m doing, there’s usually something that I’m feel-
ing – even if it’s unrelated to the task at hand – and I find some relief when something appeals
to that feeling. Psychologists and researchers have long acknowledged these invisible realms
we live in as a standard feature of our humani-
ty, but how does the fluidity of these social and emotional states fit in the college classroom? A 2013 report released

positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.”
In short, SEL is how we learn about ourselves
and how we apply that subsequent understand-
ing. This ranges from identifying what we’re feeling and why, to articulating those feelings
in a positive and constructive way, to being able to hold a civil and respectful conversation with someone we disagree with.
For K-12 educators, social and emotional
learning has been a facet of curriculum often
crucial to their classrooms for years. Programs like Matthew Henson Elementary’s PATHS exist
nationwide, fueled by research that identifies SEL as a key element in preventing prolonged
mental health problems later in adult life. But recently, there has been considerable reflection
on how these tools might be transposed into higher education.
In June of 2017, stakeholders, scholars, and
policymakers from 12 countries gathered at the Educational Testing Service’s Chauncey Confer-
ence Center to discuss the applicability of SEL
in post-secondary classroom environments at
the “Springboard for Success: How Social and Emotional Learning Helps Students in Getting to, Through and Beyond College.” An inspiring amount of conversation at the gathering con-
