e ups and downs in the weather lately have left some residents confused and irritated, while the drastic weather shifts Kansas has seen within the past couple of months have also im-pacted farmers across the state.

“We never know the extent of the weather damage until about fi ve to 10 days later,” said Matt Everhart, a 2012 K-State graduate who works at a farm near Assaria, Kan. “ is year we are about two weeks behind with crop produc-tion, which is a huge diff erence because last year we were two

weeks ahead.”Diff erent crops grow in cer-

tain seasons and cycles, and even the slightest weather change can delay or speed up the production

of a crop. For example, wheat is planted in late September and early October in Kansas. It grows in the fall, becomes dormant in the winter, and in the spring

it comes out of dormancy and begins to grow. If the weather sud-denly changes after the wheat has come out of dormancy it can po-tentially damage the wheat head,

which could damage the majority of crops in certain areas.

“ is year the wheat crop could be as high as 80 percent, especial-ly in western Kansas,” said John

Bergkamp, sophomore in agrono-my and member of the soil judg-ing team. “ e average wheat fi eld produces 40 to 50 bushels an acre. With all the weather drastically changing so suddenly, the average acre could produce as low as 10 to 15 bushels. As you can tell, this is increasingly smaller.”

e potential damage to the wheat crops depends on how far along the wheat head has devel-oped. Other factors include how cold the temperature is, as well as how many hours the wheat has been surrounded by the cold.

Recently, there have been a few guest editorials in the Col-legian from the Black Student Union addressing concerns about black faculty retention. On Tuesday in the K-State Stu-dent Union room 227, an open meeting was held to discuss black faculty retention. A panel of BSU members voiced con-cerns to a panel of administra-tion members. Audience mem-bers were able to ask questions of both panels.

“I defi nitely feel this meet-ing is the beginning of seeking progress, but in order to see improvement in the retention of faculty of color then we need to see more action from the administration within the next 18 months,” said Caitlyn Wells, special programs director for BSU and junior in public rela-tions.

Members of the BSU panel were Anita Easterwood, current BSU president and senior in art; Marcus Bragg, incoming BSU president and senior in man-agement information systems; Mercedes Perry, BSU vice presi-dent and junior in management and American ethnic studies; Ashley Wooten, BSU Big 12 delegate and senior in politi-cal science; and Ingrid Perez, BSU general body member and junior in human resources management.

Members of the admin-istrative panel were K-State President Kirk Schulz, provost and senior vice president April Mason and dean of the College of Arts and Sciences Peter Dor-hout.

United States suspects chemical weapons use in Syria

According to the New York Times, the White House said ursday that the Syrian government has used chemical weapons in its civil war. President Obama has warned Syrian President Bashar al-Assad that such an attack could cause the United States to intervene in the nearly two-year-old con-fl ict between the government and the rebel Free Syrian Army.

e White House said that intelligence agencies had expressed “varying degrees of confi dence” that al-Assad’s Ba’ath party had employed the chemical nerve agent sarin on a small scale.

In a letter to Congress, the White House said more conclusive evidence was needed before President Obama would take action.

Boston bombing suspects planned to strike Times Square

e Tsarnaev brothers, suspected of detonating two homemade bombs at last week’s Boston Marathon, intended to drive to New York City and plant further explo-sives in Times Square, according to a urs-day article in the Washington Post. Dzhokar Tsarnaev, 19, the surviving brother, told authorities from his hospital bed that they planned to use a pressure cooker device similar to the ones that left three dead and hundreds injured in Boston, along with fi ve pipe bombs.

As the cast stood on the stage in Victorian-era gowns, a story unfolded before the audience’s eyes. ey meet a young heiress named Catherine Sloper (played by Elise Poehling, sophomore in applied music), who will be paid $30,000 annually from the death of her mother and the inevitable death of her father. Catherine is shy and timid at the beginning, but they the end of the play she is a strong, direct woman who fi nds out the truth about her fi ance, Morris Townsend (played by Mathew Ellis, junior in theatre).

“ is was a very well thought out production,” said Cameron Lucero, senior in mechanical en-gineering. “It told a really good message about taking the advice from people who care about you, even when you may not agree with it in the moment. e people who take care of you really do want what is best for you, even if you don’t think so.”

“ e Heiress” opened to a half-full crowd in Nichols eatre ursday night. e plot unfolded as Morris asked Catherine for her hand in marriage after knowing her for a mere two weeks. After their engagement, Catherine’s father Austin Sloper (played by Kyle Myers, senior in theatre) dis-covers that Townsend is a fortune hunter and is only after the Sloper fortune.

“It was an absolutely fantastic show for me,” said Logan Jones, freshman in theatre and French who played Arthur Townsend. “ is was my fi rst major, onstage production here at K-State. ere was a great direction and an amazing ensemble cast for me to be on stage with. e cast worked so well together. I think the show proved how much all of our hard work paid off .”

e production was based in the mid-19th century when travel between the U.S. and Europe was done by boat. During the play, Catherine and her father travel to Europe, Arthur hoping that he will be able to prove to his daughter that her engagement is a sham. He’s unsuccessful, however, and Catherine returns to America still wanting to marry Townsend. It is only until after her father passes away that she realizes her fi ance is only interested in her money.

“I personally really liked the play,” said Vicky McCallum, resi-dent of St. George, Kan. “I think it’s

THE BLOTTERARREST REPORTS

785-260-0207

In 2011, alleged Boston bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev was questioned by the FBI. According to an April 21 article in the Guardian, an unnamed foreign government “had concerns he was linked to Islamist terrorism.” e FBI apparently did not agree and sent Tsarnaev on his way. An

April 21 Telegraph article by Peter Foster report-

ed that months later Tsarnaev repeatedly

visited a known militant in

a mosque while traveling abroad.

Many Americans are beginning to realize that our government imagines threats where none exist. I’d like to suggest that it likewise fails to perceive danger when it’s actually present. I needn’t remind you, for instance, who armed the Afghan mujahi-deen in the 1980s.

As someone who doesn’t believe that it’s America’s job to police the world, I’m skepti-cal when a foreign military threat is alleged. North Korea, however, is a full-fl edged nuclear power that constantly sacrifi ces its own well-be-ing for its insane dogma. I don’t think there should be any doubt that if there’s one nation on earth that possess-es both the technological ca-pability and suicidal insanity needed to attack the U.S., it’s the hermit state.

It’s often said that many North Koreans live without paved roads. While this is true, the state’s leaders have

caused this des-titute poverty by spending about a third of the nation’s income on its military, according to a

January 2011 Reuters article. is enormous investment has paid off : North Korea’s recent test of its three-stage Unha rocket was called “sur-prising” and “successful” by NewsAU in December 2012, and according to a March 29 MSN article, an Unha rocket could strike anywhere in California.

Since North Korea is widely recognized as a nu-clear power, any debate over whether the country could hit California with a nuclear bomb is really a debate over whether it can combine two weapons it certainly has. If you ask me, then, we ought to be spending more time taking the state’s threats seriously and less time laughing about Kim Jong Un’s pudgy appear-ance.

It goes without saying that it would be irrational for North Korea to attack the U.S. Yet James Holmes, a promis-ing neuroscience student and the son of a mathematician, did not act rationally when he massacred moviegoers in July 2012. A quick glance around the world reveals that there is no magic force fi eld prevent-ing senselessly violent people from sitting in government. North Korea in particular did not become a pariah state by rationally responding to incentives. ere’s no reason to assume it’s not simply the spree shooter of the interna-

tional community.A look at North

Korea’s culture is not reas-suring. e country lives and breathes a

garish, hive-like brand of neo-Marxism. Its government owns the

largest stadium in the world, Rungrado May Day, in which execu-

tions are handed out for even the minutest of crimes and conducted in the packed stadium like sporting events. According to an October 2007 Daily NK article by Yang Jung A, in one instance a factory owner was executed in front of 170,000 people for forging

paperwork.In a 2007 paper, Columbia

University’s Samuel S. Kim argued that North Korea is best characterized as a theoc-racy; its juche doctrine gives its leaders godlike status. A recurring theme in juche is the identifi cation of offi cials as eternal. It’s hard to think of a better way that Kim Jong Un could become truly eternal than by starting a nuclear war.

Of the arguments made by optimists regarding the Korea debacle, the weakest and most common is that “North Korea’s threats are nothing new.” is is simply not the case. In a March 7 statement, North Korea’s foreign ministry spokesman announced, “we will be exercising our right to preemptive nuclear attack against the headquarters of the aggressor in order to protect our supreme interest,” Reuters reported. On April 3, another statement from the regime promised that its nuclear strike would be “merciless,” according to the Huffi ngton Post. e gravity and specifi city of this rhetoric, and the fact that it’s unaccom-panied by specifi c demands, is unprecedented.

Moreover, even if this as-sertion were true, it wouldn’t detract from my concerns. A classmate of yours having made weekly threats about going on a shooting rampage is not cause to be fl ippant when he makes the threats again this week.

In our culture, it seems that every time some horrible slaughter occurs, a person of the gunman’s acquaintance remarks that they considered him incapable of harming anyone. With us providing Japan and South Korea tens of thousands of troops, we may have made ourselves the target of just such a gunman. If we wish, on any level, to learn from our mistakes, it’s time to have a serious con-versation about North Korea’s threats.

opinion

U.S. government should take North Korea’s threats seriously

Ian Huyett

There’s been quite a lot of buzz about North Korea in recent days. This is not too surprising, considering the inflammatory language coming from its leadership. Vows to turn Washington, D.C. into a lake of fire, to destroy U.S. mil-itary bases with nuclear weap-ons and, the only threat that has been followed through on thus far, the breaking off of the 60-year cease-fire that followed the Korean War and severing of communications with South Korea, have prompted a degree of concern from many.

This has happened before. North Korea has threatened South Korea and the United States many times over the years. The threats became more worrisome after the country acquired nuclear weapons, but never has North Korea followed through on what were, for all intents and purposes, hollow threats.

The new threats of war promised destruction if the United Nations voted for new sanctions against the coun-try. Now that those sanctions are being implemented, the question is whether the North Korean leadership will follow through on their promises.

Some say that it could happen. Kim Jong Un, the supreme leader of North Korea, succeeded his father less than two years ago and is said to be the youngest head of state in the world, though his exact age is unknown. Because of this, it has been suggested that he might take a more radical stance than his father’s in order to cement his position with the powerful military leadership.

It may be that he’s more in-clined to embrace the military option that his father often threatened, but never delivered. More importantly, North Korea could have the means to follow through on these threats. With one of the world’s largest armies and nuclear weapon capability, North Korea appears to be in a position to make good on its threats.

However, the country faces two significant problems that prevent it from being a true threat: China and a lack of modern equipment.

On paper, North Korea has a massive army. With over a mil-lion in active service and eight million more in reserve, the size

of its force is larger than that of South Korea and the United States combined. Its equip-ment, though quite outdated, could still be effective against a more modern military. The Department of Defense released an article in November 2003 calling the North Korean military “very credible.”

Yet, in the end, the North Korean military is hamstrung by the fact that such a poor nation could not sustain a protracted war. Peter Hayes, director of the Nautilus Insti-tute, estimated in a March 29 CNN article that the country has enough fuel stockpiled to sustain a war for only 30 days. On top of that, China backed tough sanctions against North Korea in response to its nuclear weapons test. If these sanctions prove effective, North Korea could find itself wholly unable to conduct a war at all.

China has often acted on behalf of North Korea within the United Nations and remains the country’s strongest ally. Recently, however, China has been more critical of its neigh-bor’s increasingly awkward position to the point that they reversed their position on sanc-tions. More dramatically, China abruptly ceased exporting fuel to the impoverished nation last month in what some are calling a response to North Korean aggression.

Perhaps the most signifi-cant point concerning North Korea is the fact that though it has long-range capability and nuclear weapons, it lacks the ability to combine them effec-tively. Only recently has the country developed technology that would allow these weap-ons to reach the U.S., but North Korea almost certainly lacks the ability to produce compact nuclear warheads capable of being carried by a missile. Even though North Korea still possesses missiles capable of reaching South Korea and the U.S. military bases in the area, it’s extremely unlikely that we are in danger of missile strikes from North Korea.

Ultimately, North Korea is a threat. However, given the disparity in capability between it and the U.S. and its increasing isolation, it is a threat to our allies and our interests rather than to our national security. This is just one more hollow threat from a nation struggling for relevancy. As a country, we should be concerned where this will lead. As citizens, however, we have little to worry about.

The K-State Multicultural Alumni Council was created in 1993 to connect multicultural K-State alumni with current mul-ticultural students. The council sponsors workshops, panel dis-cussions and other multicul-tural events to serve Hispanic, Asian-American, African-Ameri-can and Native American alumni and current students.

The council is headed by 1994 K-State graduate Ian Bautista. It was fairly inactive until recently, said Jessica Elmore, assistant di-rector of multicultural programs for the council.

“The MAC had some inactivi-ty, but was restructured in 2011,” Elmore said. “The council is made up of 11 council members with three being appointed positions.”

The three appointed positions include staff from the Office of Diversity, the Alumni Board of Di-rectors and the student body pres-ident’s office.

Tyrone Williams, senior in the-atre, is the multicultural affairs di-rector for the Student Governing Association. Through this position, he served as the council’s student representative for the student body president’s office for the past two years.

“My job is primarily to inform current students about why they need to be involved in the school, even after graduation,” Williams said.

According to Williams, there is

no “typical” member of the council.“The council’s multicultural

alumni are from different states and a varying range of class years,” he said.

This level of diversity has bene-fits for current students, Williams said.

“MAC has helped me a lot on a personal level as far as network-ing,” he said. “I have been able to meet people from other places.”

One of challenges that the MAC has faced is retaining multicultural alumni connections. Williams ex-plained that one potential cause of this struggle is that many multicul-tural students are unable to contin-ue at or choose to leave the univer-sity to study elsewhere after their first year. This makes it difficult to connect with alumni. One way to mediate this, and to get more mul-ticultural alumni involved, would be to have more connection oppor-tunities for alumni, Williams said.

“I believe a good idea to facili-tate retention will be to have a visi-tation day with alumni once a year as opposed to once every two years so connections can be made and they can see where their money is going,” Williams said.

While the council continues to grow and develop ways to best serve multicultural alumni, the ser-vices they do provide are very ben-eficial for current students as well, Elmore said.

“The MAC is here to promote networking,” she said. “And there’s a lot being done to get alumni in-volved and spread the word that MAC is a resource that exists.”

Hello again! Now that I am getting more accustomed to Australia and its citizens, I have come to realize that this country, as a whole, is “sports mad.” One sport that I was not even aware existed before coming here is “Australian rules football” or “footy” as the locals call it.

In the state of Victoria it is the most popular sport. It slightly resembles American football. Luckily, I was able to go to a footy game and expe-rience this different, but still widely-loved, sport.

Footy takes place on a cir-cular field and has four posts that the players can kick the

ball through for different amounts of points. The fans were decked out in sports merchandise and were just as crazy for their teams as Amer-icans are for American sports.

The game we went to fea-tured the Hawthorn Hawks and Collingwood Magpies. I decided to support the Hawthorn Hawks and even bought a scarf since they were so popular.

The game itself lasts for 100 minutes and is very fast-paced. There are not really timeouts or stops in the game, and even if a player fumbles the ball, other players on the team pick it up and run with it.

While I was at the game, I indulged in a meat pie, which

is a popular dish in Australia. The name describes exact-ly what it is — a pie of meat. I was also surprised to see that during the halftime per-formance, instead of a dance or cheerleading routine, chil-dren came out to play a short round of footy to pass the time.

Overall, it was an eye-open-ing experience. It made me appreciate the similarities and differences between Aus-tralia and the United States in regard to sports and the cul-ture in general.

e K-State volleyball team has had a busy spring se-mester. On top of the regular spring schedule of practices and scrimmages, the Wildcats were selected to represent Team USA in the World Uni-versity Games.

ere is a lot of volleyball to come from now until the Wild-cats begin their 2013 season. With the chance to have a full summer of volleyball, K-State plans to take advantage of all opportunities to get better. However, the emphasis is still on the upcoming season.

“I think we made forward progress in the areas that we wanted to make progress,” said head coach Suzie Fritz. “We’ve got a lot of players that have patiently waited for their op-portunities. In some ways they are ready for the challenges that are coming for them. I feel like they are starting to get well prepared in diff erent ways.”

One player who has not had to wait her turn is junior middle blocker Kaitlynn Pelger. From the minute she stepped on the K-State campus, she has been a key part of the Wildcats’ success. roughout her fi rst three years, Pelger has won multiple

all-conference and All-Ameri-can accolades.

“I would like to have a suc-cessful senior season,” Pelger said. “I can’t even believe that I’m a senior. It’s fl own by, but it’s been great.”

e Wildcats wrapped up their last spring practice on ursday but will travel to scrimmage the University of Illinois today.

K-State’s participation in the World University Games this summer presents a once in a lifetime opportunity. ey are also getting a leg up on the competition as they were awarded unlimited prac-tices in preparation for this summer. e World University Games are not tied in with the NCAA, so there will be no re-strictions on practices.

“I think that we are trying to stay focused on the upcoming season,” Pelger said. “We are using the [World University Games] to our advantage.”

e long summer will give Fritz a chance to fi ll in the holes from the departing senior class. One of the big-gest positions the Wildcats will have to replace is setter. With senior Caitlyn Donahue out, the Wildcats will look to redshirt freshman Katie Brand to step up and take the reins. Even though she has yet to

play a real game in a K-State jersey, Brand feels that the redshirt season has prepared her for the task ahead.

“For me personally the [red-shirt year] was huge,” Brand said. “I got to learn a lot from Caitlyn Donahue, and that was really big for me. Just to watch the diff erent systems, I had to learn to play a lot faster from high school to division one.”

e Wildcats will continue to play in scrimmages as part of their spring season. e World University Games will be held in Kazan, Russia, from July 6-17.

K-State volleyball team fi nishes off spring practices with fi nal scrimmage

ursday’s Student Governing Association meeting served to educate new senate mem-bers about the processes and formalities of SGA. Kyle Nuss, speaker of the Student Senate and senior in architectural engineering, ex-plained proceedings to new senators as the meeting progressed.

During the fi rst open period, Jatin Rayalu, junior in open option, spoke on behalf of the smoking community at K-State against an all-university smoking ban.

“I am a smoker,” Rayalu said. “I have also been on the receiving end of second-hand smoke. And let me tell you, even smokers don’t like it.”

Rayalu suggested having specifi ed smoking areas, similar to the University of Arkansas, that are clearly marked on campus and on campus maps. He also encouraged SGA to work to ensure that campus police are enforcing the rules already in place.

ere are also plans for a change in deco-ration in the K-State Student Union’s Big 12 room, where SGA meetings are held, to more prominently display members of the Big 12 Conference and update the adornments. ese changes will take place over the summer.

SGA is currently searching for a Student Senate parliamentarian. Any legislation chang-es are due by April 30 at 4 p.m. to senator Ben Brown, chair of senate operations.

Senators were asked to turn in committee preferences by Friday at 7 p.m., so each com-

mittee chair told the senate what their com-mittee is responsible for and when it will meet. Committee chairs were later unanimously approved and sworn in by student body pres-ident Eli Schooley, senior in political science.

Schooley also appointed the cabinet mem-bers, which were unanimously approved and sworn in.

SGA introduced a new section to their busi-ness for minor allocations which will involve group funding under a sum of $850. In meet-ings the group and amount will be read and re-quire a three-fourths majority to be approved through the committee.

e 52 senators present approved the amendments made to the College of Human Ecology College Council Constitution.

During second open period, Ellen Colling-wood, sophomore in business administration, encouraged new senators to work with their mentors while adjusting to their time in SGA.

“Please build those relationships with those who have been in the senate for a while,” Collingwood said.

Commendations were given to the K-State Open House staff and those involved in plan-ning the event and also to Frank Tracz, director of bands and professor of music, for being in-ducted into the American Bandmasters Asso-ciation and for the notoriety and leadership he has brought to the Pride of Wildcat Land.

SGA will be accepting applications for at-large committee members until May 10. Ap-plications can be found online and must be turned into the Offi ce of Student Activities and Services in the Union.

worth going to see this play. e actors really put their heart into this production.”

Lucero said the play is incredibly relatable and has a good message. He said that everyone who sees this production will defi nitely be able to learn something from it and take value from what was portrayed on the stage.

“Any time you have the opportunity to see some-thing on the stage or in the theater, you should take advantage of it,” Jones said. “You will always be able to learn something. And I personally feel that anyone who comes to see this play will be able to learn some-thing from it. It’s always important to learn something from whatever it is you are seeing.”

WHEAT | Crop prices to increaseContinued from page 1 historically under-represent-

ed faculty and staff . Establish a campus-wide culture of acceptance for and encour-agement of historically un-der-represented and diverse populations such that other opportunities elsewhere become a moot consider-ation.”

However, three minori-ty faculty members in the American ethnic studies department jobs were in jeopardy, and one of these faculty members will not be retained. BSU members did not fi nd this accept-able; they shared the infl u-ence and impact that this faculty member, JohnElla Holmes, instructor of Amer-ican ethnic studies, had on them and stated reasons she should be retained.

Although the termination of this infl uential instructor was the tip of the iceberg as far as BSU’s concerns about black faculty retention at K-State go, the group’s pas-sion to address the issue increased after certain facts were revealed to them during their research process.

To the knowledge of both sides, there is no rule that re-quires K-State to interview at least one minority candidate. e lack of this rule could be a reason for the low number of minority faculty members.

Only 26 faculty members (1.9 percent of the entire fac-ulty body) are African-Amer-ican or of African descent, and not every college at K-State has black faculty members.

Although the meeting was established due to BSU concern about black faculty retention, it also addressed

issues concerning all faculty of color. At one point in the meeting, someone suggested that it is important for white faculty members to be more racially sensitive and cultur-ally aware.

e administrative panel responded by stating that there needed to be improve-ment in the retention, re-cruitment and climate for professors of color. ey also announced that there will be minority faculty members added to the College of En-gineering and at least one of them is of African-American descent. e College of En-gineering is currently one of the colleges with no Afri-can-American faculty.

One concerned student at the meeting asked how stu-dents could hold the mem-bers of the administration accountable for making im-provements in the retention rate of professors of color. Schulz suggested meeting again in a year to check on the progress made.

e administrative panel-ists stated they would work on making improvements for professors of color.

BSU stated that if they see no progress they would take further action.

“I just want to make sure that the administration truly heard us and is prepared to take action and not just listen and say ‘we understand your concerns,’ but put no action behind it,” Bragg said. “I’m glad we had the meeting, but there is still a lot of work to do.”

Offi cials call for pun-ishment after building collapse kills hundreds in Bangladesh

According to CNN, Ban-gladesh’s prime minister and

House leader called for those involved with causing the col-lapse of an eight-story building to be punished. e collapse killed more than 250 people on Wednesday.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said that the building, outside the capital city of Dhaka, shouldn’t have been reoccupied after cracks developed in the structure. However, workers in the garment factory were forced to return to work by the owners.

e death toll could still rise, as CNN said hundreds more were feared to be trapped un-derneath the rubble. e col-lapse has drawn thousands into

the street to protest lax safety codes.

A general for Bangladesh’s Fire Brigade and Civil Defense said rescue eff orts would be continued until Saturday morn-ing, 72 hours after the collapse, at which point heavy equipment would be employed to retrieve bodies.

e building housed fi ve garment factories employing about 2,500 workers, a bank and 300 shops, according to Sang-bad Sangstha, the offi cial Ban-gladeshi news agency.and 300 shops, according to Sangbad Sangstha, the offi cial Bangla-deshi news agency.

Corn is another crop that has taken a turn for the worst this year. From April through the beginning of May, corn is planted within half of Kansas, and the ground has to be 50 degrees or warmer.

“It is a waiting game,” said Bob Seiler, a farmer stationed just outside of Wichita. “If the ground is not ready then the planting is postponed, and the longer you wait the less you will yield per acre. In other words, the value of the crops will decrease.”

This presents a prob-lem because the later in the season corn is planted the more growing it has to do in June and July. These are often the hottest and driest months of the year, crippling corn pro-duction. This year corn will be three weeks late because it has been too cold for the corn to come up.

Crop production in sur-rounding states such as Texas and Oklahoma has also been affected by the weather. The price of wheat everywhere will likely increase, but it is uncertain how much damage has been done to the corn fields.

Many farmers lost money this year, though some respite is available.

“Farmers have crop insur-ance that helps recoup the lost,” Bergkamp said. “It is not a total recovery, but still it helps with the loss.”
