To raise awareness against sexu-al assault, the Assault SurvivorsAdvocacy Program will host SAFE

Week from today through Friday. SAFE stands for Sexual

Assault Free Environment, andthe event is a week of programsfocused on sexual assault pre-vention. October is Domestic

Violence Awareness Month.SAFE Week is a biannual event

that is planned by the SAFE commit-tee, which is comprised of UNC stu-dents, faculty and staff. The mem-bers of this committee said they areinvolved because they care aboutthe issues SAFE Week addresses.

Deana Davies, the coordinatorfor ASAP, was instrumental in coor-dinating the week’s festivities.

“SAFE Week is importantbecause one of the main goals ofASAP is to provide educationabout issues related to sexualassault and intimate partner vio-lence,” Davies said. “This is ourchance to put on events to show

our perspective and provide infor-mation about those things.”

The events of SAFE Week includeTake Back the Night, TheClothesline Project, a forum on thesystems of sexual assault, and a selfdefense workshop.

ASAP will co-host the Open MicPoetry Slam from 9-11 p.m. today inthe University Center with theUniversity Program Council.

The Take Back the Night marchis a program that ASAP hosts everyyear, according to the ASAP website.Members of the university and thecommunity get together to protestviolence against people of all ethnic-ities, orientation and gender to pro-

mote awareness of the attitudes andbehaviors that perpetuate violence.

The first Take Back the Nightmarch occurred in Germany in the1970s, and there are marches in theUnited States, Canada, LatinAmerica, India and Europe.

The Clothesline Project will behosted from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. all week,and from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Friday inthe UC. Students who participate inthe Clothesline Project will have theopportunity to decorate T-shirts.

These T-shirts will be a visualdisplay and an opportunity forpeople to show their support forthe cause as they tell their story inthe artwork.

For many UNC students,Friday night was filled with schoolspirit, the burning of a giant “M,”and the ringing of cowbells.

The annual pep rally andbonfire was hosted atDoubenmeir Field by BishopLehr Hall the night before theUniversity of NorthernColorado’s Homecoming foot-ball game against theUniversity of Montana.

The University ProgramCouncil was on hand to distrib-ute cowbells to students, facul-ty and alumni. The ringing ofcowbells has become a tradi-tion during football games.

UNC Student Radio waspresent to entertain studentswith music as they waited forthe festivities to begin.

The cheerleaders performedwhile leading the crowd in a count-down to the lighting of the fire.

At about 8:40 p.m., the hugepile of wood, topped with a

large, red papier-mâché “M”symbolizing the University ofMontana, was doused in fluidand set ablaze.

As the flames roared, thenominees for Homecomingroyalty were announced, andthe players of various sportsteams, including football,spoke to the crowd. Theyencouraged students to showtheir school spirit and supportthe teams as they played theirHomecoming games.

Attendees then went to thepractice fields for a fireworksdisplay.

Kristy Leonard, a sophomorecriminal justice major and amember of the cheer squad,attended the pep rally and bon-fire for the second time.

“It’s a lot more fun than lastyear when it was windy andcold,” Leonard said. “I thoughtit was a great turnout. This is 10times bigger than it was lastyear. I’ll come as long as I’m (atUNC) because it’s fun.”

Students were not the only

people in attendance. Alumnialso spent the night celebratingtheir alma mater.

One alumnus in attendancewas Jim Riesberg, a gerontolo-gist and a current Democraticnominee for the ColoradoHouse of Representatives.Riesberg graduated from UNCin 1964 with a bachelor’s degreein history, and a master’sdegree in gerontology in 1992.

Riesberg said a lot of thingshave changed since he was astudent at UNC, such as anincrease of student enrollmentand the number of events host-ed for Homecoming Week.However, one tradition remainsthat Riesberg said was hisfavorite.

“I met my wife on the fourthday of classes, and now we’vebeen married 46 years,” Riesbergsaid. “Every year we would go tothe Homecoming dance.”

Vince Seelbach, a juniormusic and chemistry educationmajor, said this year was thefirst year he has gone to the

bonfire, and plans on goingnext year.

“I got here and there wassuch energy,” Seelbach said.

“It’s a good place to be; I’llcome next year because it’s afun place to socialize and bewith friends.”

Mirror Reflections are the opinion of The Mirror’s editorial board: Josh Espinoza, Jordan Freemyer, Eric Heinz, Melanie Vasquez and Ruby White. Let us know

what you think. E-mail us at [email protected].

Last Friday, the state imple-mented a new law that will requireanyone arrested for a felony tosubmit a DNA sample — a proce-dure that has gained much sup-port from many legislators and lawenforcement officials, but muchcriticism from those who claim theregulation violates a person’s rightto privacy.

The legislation is referred to asthe “Katie Law,” which was namedafter Katie Sepich, a 22-year-oldgraduate student at New MexicoState University who was rapedand murdered in August 2003.Following her death, investigatorshad a difficult time naming sus-

pects despite a sufficient amountof the attacker’s DNA found underKatie’s fingernails.

Naïvely, the Sepich familyassumed it would be a matter oftime before a match would bemade, but they later learned thatmost state laws do not require norpermit law enforcement to takeDNA for felony arrests; and thusbegun the inception of Katie’sLaw.

In 2006, “Katie’s Bill” waspassed by the New MexicoLegislature within only 30 days;and today, 21 states have imple-mented the law and others like it— most recently Colorado.

Gov. Bill Ritter signed the bill inearly 2009; however, because thestate had to wait to accumulate thefunds necessary for software andprocedural updates, it has takenmore than a year and a half toimplement. And while many sup-porters claim this new law willenhance the safety and justice sys-tem of various communities, manyopponents, like the ACLU, insistsuch change disregards the con-cept “innocent until provenguilty.” Because of this, ACLUspokesman Mark Silverstein saidhis group would be interested inchallenging the law in court.

The opposing arguments are

based on the faulty assumptionthat convicted felons retain thesame rights as everyone else; thisis clearly not the case in terms ofprivacy as DNA sampling would beincluded in a long line of identifi-cation procedures that are alreadyin place — such as taking mugshots and fingerprints.

It must also be noted that anysupposed invasion of privacy willbe trumped by the good the lawwill do. The expanded DNA data-base will not only help in coldcases and in clearing the innocent,but will be particularly helpful inensuring that our communities arethat much safer.

New law permitting DNA sampling has benefits

Across America’s uni-versities and highschools, a crisis that

has haunted our nation has con-tinued to cause students to taketheir own lives. Shame, harass-ment, bullying, embarrassment,grief, torment: these are just afew of the emotions brought onfrom the innate intolerance ofpeople against those who areopenly gay or presumed to begay. And these emotions andintolerance have amounted tothe suicides of five people in afew weeks.

Of those five was Tyler

Clementi, a freshman at RutgersUniversity in Piscataway, N.J. Hejumped from the GeorgeWashington Bridge over theHudson River and took his own lifeon Sept. 22. Only three days beforehis death, Clementi had beenunknowingly videotaped by hisroommate, Dharun Ravi, engagingin a sexual activity with anotherman. But Ravi didn’t stop there.According to the New York Times,Ravi posted a Twitter messagereading, “Roommate asked for theroom till midnight. I went intomolly’s room and turned on mywebcam. I saw him making outwith a dude. Yay.” On Sept. 21, Raviattempted another videotape, thistime streaming it live on theInternet. The live feed never hap-pened. And less than 24 hours later,Clementi was dead.

Cyber bullying and hate crimes

continue to ravage our nation, abitter example of the selfish intoler-ance that shamefully persists intothe 21st century. When will enoughbe enough? In the case of Clementi,the young college student was enti-tled to his privacy. The invasion ofthat privacy by his roommate wasnot only disrespectful and rude, itwas illegal. Ravi is being chargedwith two counts of invasion of pri-vacy — a charge that could put himin up to five years in prison.

But about tolerance? It isexhausting and unbelievable tothink that tolerance is still an issuethat has to be addressed. Peoplenot only deserve privacy, theydeserve to live freely as who theyare without fear. It scares me tothink that hate crimes will continueto reign and torment those whodon’t have the strength to stand upfor themselves.

However, small steps have beentaken. Last October, PresidentObama signed the MatthewShepard and James Byrd Jr. HateCrimes Prevention Act, a hate-crime law covering crimes againstpeople based on their gender iden-tity and sexual orientation, real orperceived. This law allows theJustice Department to investigateand prosecute such crimes.

But a new law is not enough. Itis clear this will not stop peoplefrom expressing their intoleranceor from using the Internet as ameans to bully. It is up to the indi-vidual to decide for themselveswhat kind of person they want tobe and who they want to beremembered as: a bully or a friend.Everyone deserves a friend.

On Friday, members of theSaudi Student Club transformedthe University Center’s FiresideLounge into a colorful Arabicgetaway to share their culturewith their American peers andcolleagues.

The event was hosted in cele-bration of Saudi National Day.Members of the Saudi club,dressed in their traditional gar-ments called “thoubs,” greetedguests. Several Saudi studentsexplained the displays depictingSaudi Arabia’s history, attrac-tions and lifestyle.

“We are working to reflect ourcountry and also to reflect the veryimpressive relationship betweenSaudi Arabia and the United States,”said Ragea Alqahtani, a second-yearspecial education doctorate studentand the Saudi Student Club presi-dent. “We have a good friendship,and it is important to keep it.”

The University of NorthernColorado has 110 Saudi students on

campus. Alqahtani said a lot of Saudistudents are studying special educa-tion, business, political educationand criminal justice.

“King Abdullah gives about40,000 students scholarships tostudy in the U.S.,” Alqahtani said.

Students were able to experi-ence Saudi culture through avariety of interactive activities,including henna; Arabic tattoos;dates; and “gahwas,” Arabic cof-fee, which are traditional sym-bols of generosity and hospitali-ty. There was also a display oftraditional women’s clothescalled “abaya” for students to tryon, as well as an Arabic tent,complete with traditional seat-ing for guests to relax in.

Caitlin McCann, a sophomoreAmerican Sign Language major, saidshe thought the event was impor-tant for American students to get toknow the heritage of internationalstudents and to become more famil-iar with other cultures.

Noorah Ashrour, a Saudi studentpursuing a master’s degree inspeech language pathology, gave

presentations about women inSaudi Arabia. Ashrour said the maindifference between Saudi andAmerican culture is women have towear the “abaya” whenever theyleave their homes.

“We are not as suppressed asthe media portrays us — we dohave rights,” Ashrour said. “Thewomen here are more athletic anddo a lot more things without beingstared at. But that is changing inSaudi Arabia, and more and morewomen go out (in public).”

Amy Silva, a special educationteacher at Milliken ElementarySchool, brought a group of sec-ond- to fifth-grade students fromher classes to the celebration.Silva said one of their studentteachers is from Saudi Arabia, andthey came as a chance to learnmore about his culture.

“For kids and adults, (culturalevents) open our minds,” Silvasaid. “Sometimes our perspectiveis very narrow, and it helps us toknow our culture isn’t the only cul-ture and to understand the worldis a very big place.”

To celebrate the achieve-ments of UNC alumni, theHomecoming SpectacularSaturday at the Union ColonyCivic Center honored graduateswho have excelled in their fieldsof study. This was the spectacu-lar’s inaugural year.

The Honored Alumni eventbegan in 1947 to recognizeUniversity of NorthernColorado graduates for theirwork after college. It was notuntil this year, however, thatthe event became the compre-hensive spectacular.

“The Honored Alumni

Alumnus discusses surviving difficult job marketBENJAMIN WELCH

n e w s @ u n c m i r r o r . c o m

Students looking to receivebusiness advice from one ofUNC’s honored Homecomingalums gathered Friday in MilneAuditorium.

Masoud Shirazi, who graduat-ed from the University ofNorthern Colorado with a bache-lor’s degree in management in1974 and a master’s in business in1975, presented “Pathways toExcellence: Roads Leading to andfrom Kepner Hall” as part of theExecutive Professor Program.

Shirazi taught studentsabout the importance of takingadvantage of their higher edu-cation experience. He alsoemphasized that with determi-

nation and toughness, jobs arestill available, even in the cur-rent economic downturn.

“When the market is tough,as far as jobs, you have to gettougher and more aggressive in

the market,” Shirazi said.“When the economic situationis tough, you have to be able tobypass that to succeed.”

The fifth of 10 siblings,Shirazi said his parents wereuneducated, but still promotedtheir children’s education. Hecame to America to live with hisbrother and attend UNC fromhis native country of Iran,which he affectionately refersto as “the Old Country.”

Shirazi said he initially strug-gled with learning aboutAmerican society and graspingthe language. Regardless, he saidhe knew he was in a prime posi-tion to succeed.

“There is a lot of opportunityin this country,” Shirazi said.“They say that this is the land of

opportunity and you can accom-plish anything you want, and Ireally believe that.”

A friend of one of Shirazi’s pro-fessors sold insurance and offeredhim a job. Shirazi began to sellinsurance in 1976, and his busi-ness quickly blossomed. He alsowas involved in community andbusinesses boards, serving on thechair of the First National Bankand on the board of trustees forthe Boy Scouts of America.

Shirazi said he advises stu-dents to get involved with localbusinesses and become familiarwith the private sector. He saidto not become involved just forresume-building, but to trulygain experience and knowledge.

The lecture utilized audienceparticipation, and many atten-

dees asked questions about thejob market and how the MonfortCollege of Business could preparethem for after graduation.

Shirazi said students shouldcontinue to be involved withtheir school throughout theircareer. He said despite whatsome may think, a lot of whatstudents utilize in the futurecan be learned in class.

After the lecture, LynnKarowski, the director of theExecutive Professor Program atMCB, presented Shirazi with aplaque of recognition for his con-tinuous involvement with UNC.

“I have been very impressedwith UNC and Monfort,” Shirazisaid. “It is important to rememberyour school, and I hope UNC willcontinue for many years.”

Bears hibernate in loss to MontanaJORDAN FREEMYER

s p o r t s @ u n c m i r r o r . c o m

The UNC football team hadan opportunity to make a state-ment Saturday with aHomecoming win, but it wastheir opponents, the MontanaGrizzlies, who ended up makinga statement of their own with a30-7 win.

The No. 12-ranked Grizzlies(3-2, 2-1) jumped out to a 24-point lead at halftime andcruised to the victory.

University of NorthernColorado (2-3, 1-2) junior quarter-back Dylan Orms struggled for thesecond straight game, going nine-for-18 through the air for 107yards with two interceptions.

“I really can’t believe thatthat’s what happened today,”Orms said.

Redshirt freshman quarter-back Seth Lobato and sopho-more quarterback Matt Bacaalso saw action againstMontana, with Baca throwing atouchdown pass for the Bears’only score of the game.

According to UNC headcoach Scott Downing, Orms’hold on the starting quarterbackjob is not as secure as it oncewas.

“We need to have somebodyin there that will execute theoffense,” Downing said. “That’snot putting everything on thequarterback because other guyshave to execute, as well.”

UNC had a chance to get backin the game when, trailing 10-0in the second quarter, seniorlinebacker James Schrenk got hisfirst career interception, settingup the Bears at the 50.

“I was where I was supposed tobe, on my hash, and the guy threwit right to me,” Schrenk said.“Luckily, I was able to catch it.”

However, the Bears wereunable to convert the turnoverinto points, going three-and-out.

On its ensuing drive,Montana marched 92 yards on13 plays for a touchdown to takea 17-0 lead.

That was not the only missedopportunity for the UNC offenseon the day. The Bears were only

able to convert one of their fourred zone trips, with the otherthree resulting in a missed fieldgoal and two failed fourth-downconversion attempts.

“When you get the ball downthere, you’ve got to score,” Ormssaid. “You’ve got to find a way toget the ball in the end zone,especially against a team likeMontana.”

Montana scored touchdownson all three of its red zonechances.

Down 17-0 late in the firsthalf, senior running back AndreHarris coughed up the Bears’first fumble of the season, givingMontana the ball deep in UNCterritory.

Harris carried the ball just 12times for 32 yards. As a team, theBears rushed for 53 yards on 39attempts.

The Bears said they wereespecially disappointed in theirperformance because it came infront of a Homecoming crowd of8,105, one of the largest in thehistory of Nottingham Field.

“It’s tough,” Schrenk said.

“We start to get the fans back,and then we lay an egg.”

The Bears will look to snaptheir two-game losing streak

Saturday at Sacramento State (2-3, 1-2). The Hornets dropped a64-61 barnburner to MontanaState in overtime last weekend.

Club hockey team splits weekend, suffers injuriesERIC HEINZ


After splitting its schedule 1-1this weekend, the UNC Bears icehockey team proved it is ready toplay this season. But at what level?

The Bears took a punishingloss Thursday 6-2 against UtahState, in which three University ofNorthern Colorado players weresidelined for the next game. Buton Friday, the Bears were able toscrape by in-state rival Colorado, a

Division III squad, 6-4. It seemed as if the Utah State

game was months ago when theBears took the ice against theBuffaloes, scoring with a quickthree-on-one rush that was capi-talized on by freshman forwardTripp Wheat 22 seconds into thefirst period. But CU answeredback almost 45 seconds later witha shot from the point that wastipped in by Buffs forward AndrewJackson.

The 1-1 score was unchanged

until 12:35 left in the first with alow shot from past the ankles ofthe CU goaltender by UNC fresh-man defenseman Daniel Madsen,giving the Bears a 2-1 lead.

About six minutes later, fresh-man forward Nick Leterman dis-played his snapshot precision bysniping it through the nearsidetop corner of the net, making thegame 3-1 UNC after the first peri-od.

The second period wasuneventful for the Bears, as their

lead slipped away with two CUgoals: the first with 11:46 left in thesecond period by defensemanTaylor Shiltz on a two-man advan-tage power play, and the next with9:42 left by forward Tyler Moore,tying the game at 3-3 going intothe final act.

When the Bears returned forthe third period, the energy theteam displayed in the first periodresumed with constant control inthe opposition’s zone. At 9:37remaining in the third, sopho-

more forward Matthew Stolzbergreceived a cross-ice pass closeenough to bang into the CU net.Again, UNC rested back on itsheels, which gave the Buffs anoth-er opportunity to tie it up. With6:17 left, CU forward David Keywhipped around with a shot onthe ice that careened through traf-fic past Bears’ goaltender sopho-more Brian Dean.

The game was still tied at four

with three minutes left whenLeterman tallied his second goalof the evening with a quick wristshot as the Bears pushed into theBuffs’ defensive zone. CaptainKevin Insana ensured victorywith a breakaway goal with 17seconds left.

“The game is a lot faster (at thecollege level),” Leterman said afterthe game. “It’s a lot more intense,but I like it. We’re starting to reallyget used to playing with eachother as a team.”

Although the Bears were ableto put away CU, head coach Nick

Harper described some of histeam’s areas that need improve-ment prior to the game.

“Discipline is a huge area ofimprovement, and we definitelytouched on that last night,”Harper said. “It won’t be a prob-lem again.”

It may need a little more thantouching on it. Although the Bearsbeat CU on shots 38-36, the teamis lucky the Buffs didn’t takeadvantage of the eight penaltiesUNC took. Additionally, the Bearsmissed their own opportunitieson the advantage, as the Buffsgave themselves two benchminors during the game — both

for too many men. “I think we’re playing with a

lot of heart; we’re battling veryhard,” Insana said. “We’ve got alot of new guys, but I think we’regetting ourselves together. We’rea very talented team, and I thinkwe’ll go far.”

Sources close to the UNC icehockey team said sophomore for-ward Corbin Fitzgibbons will beout for the season after severelycutting his Achilles tendon againstUtah State, and freshmandefenseman Kaleb Westfall is outfor two-three weeks with asprained knee, and Ryan Meyer isday-to-day with a broken hand.

Volleyball bounces back with win over LumberjacksSTAFF REPORT


The UNC women’s volleyballteam bounced back from its loss toCSU on Tuesday to make quickwork of Big Sky foe NorthernArizona in a 3-0 victory on Saturdayat Butler-Hancock Sports Pavilion.

The University of NorthernColorado (13-4, 4-0) improved to 8-1at home thanks in large part to the51 kills the team recorded on thenight.

Senior outside hitter AshleyLichtenberg led all players with 18kills in the match. Sophomore out-side hitter Kelley Arnold and sopho-

more middle blocker BrittanyCrenshaw recorded 11 and eightkills, respectively.

The Bears have had trouble allyear with starting games slowly, andthat was again the case on Saturday.

Trailing by five early in the firstgame, UNC rallied to take the leadand cruised the rest of the way towin game one, 25-15.

In game two, the Bears wereagain in an early hole, but foughtback in what proved to be a back-and-forth affair featuring 13 ties andfive lead changes. UNC finally pulledaway to win, 25-21.

The third game was a nicechange of pace for the Bears as they

took an early 6-1 lead. UNC built itslead to as many as nine at one point,but allowed the Lumberjacks (6-8, 2-2) to get back in it. But the damagehad already been done as UNC wenton to win, 25-21.

Junior defender AmandaArterburn led the Bears defensivelywith 18 digs. Senior outside hitterJulie Stephenson added 12 digs ofher own. Sophomore setter MarissaHughes played in her first full matchsince early September and notchedthree kills and 44 assists.
