Subwaysettles in at Courter Center

An addition to the Courter Center here in Boone since fall 2014 has been receiving some support as well as some criticism. This school year, a Subway was built into the previous café.

Student Brian Berg shared what he thought about the new food option.

“I eat at Subway every day that I’m on campus. I’ve always been a fan of Subway and I love that it’s here on campus now,” stated Berg. Berg said he wished there were more of a variety. “Although I do like Subway’s healthier choices.”

No matter your criticism or support of the fast food chain, Subway’s success on campus is apparent to anyone who walks by. They’re so busy that there is rarely a time in the day where you don’t have to stand in line. Boone campus’s previous café had more food options so, naturally, many people wondered why DMACC decided to make a change.

Tom Lee, Boone campus’ Provost, explained what had happened to the Campus Café.

“We were having to supplement the café’s contract and we were losing money each month. Also, sales were going down,” stated Lee.

Lee said it seemed that people had stopped eating on campus and a change had to be made. Still, students may be curious as to why the college had chosen Subway out of dozens of other possible chains.

Lee answered, “Subway was interested, and offered to do the renovations and set-up at no cost to the college. We also receive a portion of the sales. Bringing in a second chain would not be feasible to either company as it would cut sales of each one. One of them would eventually go under.”

Lee explained further, “Subway also has a diverse menu with many healthy options. It is quality food and a known product. They have exceeded their and my expectations for sales. We are very pleased with the success of the restaurant.”

Midterm of semester approaching fast

Midterm is right around the corner -- on March 9.

Academic experts advise students to prepare themselves for midterm exams and to finish out the rest of the semester strong.

“Students should follow the ‘study cycle’ method,” recommends Ann Kiesel, the Academic Achievement Center Director.

The study cycle method is studying 30 minutes a day on each subject so the information becomes long term.

In Kiesel’s opinion students study too passively. She advises students to study more actively by making the information they are studying into a song, creating flashcards, or using other hands-on tools.

Students often cram for exams. To avoid this, students should consider using Kiesel’s recommendation of the study cycle method, and remember the 2 to 1 theory.

This theory is that for every credit a student has they should study 2 hours a week.

An example of this would be if a student is in psychology, a 3 credit course, then they should study 6 hours each week. This also makes the information they are being taught long term and will prepare them for an exam later on.

For upcoming midterm exams students may go to their advisors for advice, the Writing Center for help, or the Academic Achievement Center (AAC). The AAC’s hours are 8 a.m.-8 PM Monday-Thursday and 8 AM-3

PM on Friday. They offer free tutoring in

math, chemistry, and physics. Also, the AAC offers writing, reading, and study strategies at any time during the hours they are open.

The Writing Center is located in Room 170. The Writing Center hours are M-F 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. 1-3 p.m. The Center is a helpful source for students working on any type of paper. Writing Center staff will go through the paper with you, helping to correct any errors, and making recommendations to improve the paper, etc.

Students who need help before midterm can visit any of these resources during their hours. Groups can meet in the AAC to work on assignments/projects and can receive help from the staff members.

Editor’s note: This section will feature a student, staff member, or instructor from the Boone DMACC campus. Do you have a suggestion for someone we should feature? Send your ideas to ban-nernews@dmacc.edu

DMACC student Ethan Lyle traveled to Haiti several times to teach English but returned to the United States with many lessons of his own.

“I wanted to go to Haiti to make a real difference and to really experience what it was like to live in Haiti,” says Ethan who is also a reporter on the Banner News staff.

Ethan visited Haiti six times since his sophomore year in high school in 2011. He went with his church on a missionary trip. He stayed in Haiti for three months in 2013 from September until November.

He was given the opportuni-ty to teach classrooms of students English by a missionary organi-zation called Global Ministries.

Along with being a teacher, Ethan was also the physical edu-cation and sports director for all ages at the school.

Occasionally Ethan traveled with the American missionary teams that did work at several construction and medical sites around Port-au-Prince (Haiti’s capitol city).

Ethan lived in Port-au-Prince. Global Ministries paid for his rent and vehicle. Donations and his church supplemented the rest. He did not get paid.

He explains the living condi-tions as being very poor “Run-ning water, electricity, and gen-eral safety were a daily struggle,” Ethan says.

He talks of these struggles and explained some days his electricity would only be on a few hours a day and other times it wouldn’t be on for a few days in a row.

He was told not to go outside his compound after dark unless escorted by another Haitian in a vehicle.

Ethan talked about the days he did not have to work when he would go to the beach or a nice hotel because these places were secure with armed guards mak-ing it a safe area.

Ethan returned home due to conflicts in and between Global Ministries and CONASPEH (the Haitian run partner organization in Haiti).

“Global Ministries and I de-cided my time was up and it was time to return home for good.”

Ethan enjoyed Haiti, which is why he decided to go for a longer period of time.

Now Ethan is back in the United States attending DMACC then transferring to Iowa State. He hopes to go back to Haiti

again whether it is long term or short.

“After spending time in another country, it is hard not to want to go back. I have friends and memories in Haiti and I hope to see them again and make some new memories.”

“Selma”, a recently released movie highlighting the civil rights struggle in 1965, is catching the attention of a few members of the DMACC men’s basketball team.

“The story was great as well as the acting in it,” said Alex Kuster, a freshman guard from from Burlington. “I would defi-nitely recommend it to anyone who is considering seeing it, for it could be an eye opening experi-ence for some.”

The Paramount movie is based on the march from Selma to Montgomery in 1965 that led to the passing of the Voting Rights Act. It earned nearly $5 million on the first day of its release, which was Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Selma was nominated for four Golden Globe Awards including Best Motion Picture, Drama, Best Director, and Best Actor, and won for Best Original Song. It also re-ceived nominations for Best Pic-ture and Best Original Song at the 87th Academy Awards.

Elliot Defreitas, a center from England, is excited to see the movie in theatres soon.

“Once I saw the trailer for it I knew I had to see that movie when it came out,” he stated. It looks like it would be very inter-esting with a meaningful story behind it. I haven’t had the time to see it yet, but when I do find the time I will for sure attend.”

Kuster said he usually is more into comedy than drama, “but for me this movie was not hard to get into at all.”

Before its release, Selma was believed to be a serious Oscar award contender with its great acting and story. Soon after its release, some film critics claimed that the movie was inaccurate when it comes to the history that it shows.

However, praise has gone particularly to the film’s acting, cinematography, direction, and

screenplay. It has also received positive reviews by Joe Morgen-stern from The Wall Street Jour-nal, and Richard Roeper, of the Chicago Sun Times.

Even though some people now believe that it won’t make an appearance at the Oscars, the $31.5 million that has been made tells a different story. Accord-ing to some film critics, “Selma” would have had the chance to make more if it hadn’t been re-leased at around the same time as “The American Sniper”.

When asked about his opin-ion of the movie, Men’s basketball manager Dustin Hall stated that the movie met his expectations. “I love movies based on history” he said. “It’s safe to say that Selma is near the top of my list when it comes to my favorites.”

“I honestly can’t wait to see it,” said freshman guard Tate Lars-en from Des Moines. “I’ve always been really interested in every-thing Dr. Martin Luther King re-lated, so I’m pretty excited to see this movie about him.”

“Selma” has received 4/5 stars and could be a good movie to see for a movie date night.

Bears playersput ‘Selma’on must-see listBy Nick NoahContributing Writer

Alex Kuster Elliott Defreitas

(TNS) Long before the Oscar-nominated “Selma” was championed as the first major motion picture about the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., another film chronicled the civil rights leader’s march from Selma, Ala., to Montgomery.

“Selma, Lord, Selma” was a made-for-TV movie by Walt Dis-ney Pictures. Originally broadcast in 1999, the docudrama was an adaptation of a memoir by Shey-ann Webb-Christburg, Rachel West Nelson and Frank Sikora.

Webb-Christburg and West were young girls at the time of the march, ages 8 and 9, respec-tively. The two films were made 15 years apart but make some of the same stylistic and script choices, and just like “Selma” director Ava DuVernay _ under fire for her portrait of President Lyndon B. Johnson _ “Selma, Lord, Selma” director Charles Burnett knows all too well the sting of backlash that comes when portraying his-torical figures.

Burnett said it was important to make a film that would stir in youth “a sense that they can do something positive, that they can get out and march and have a sense of justice and act on it.”

King was central, Burnett said, “but he wasn’t really the main point of the film. It was these young girls’ experiences. It’s their discovery of the movement and the things that they witnessed growing up.”

At the start of the Disney film, a young Sheyann (Jurnee Smollett) skips class, against Ra-chel’s warnings, to hear King speak at a church when he arrives in Selma. From that moment, she’s bitten with the activism bug and invited by King to sing in front of the congregation at a larger meeting that evening. Her song of choice, which becomes an anthem throughout the film, is the freedom song “Ain’t Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around.” Through the eyes of Sheyann, the movie focuses on the efforts of younger people involved in the nonviolent demonstrations for voting rights. That includes Jona-than Daniels (Mackenzie Astin) and Jimmie Lee Jackson (Zach Rogers), who worked to get blacks registered to vote throughout ru-ral Alabama.

The film continues highlight-ing the events leading up to the infamous “Bloody Sunday” on the Edmund Pettus Bridge, where Sheyann is the youngest person to attempt to cross. It ends just after the third and final march, which crossed the bridge and ended at the state capital.

According to Webb-Christ-burg, now a 58-year-old activist living in Montgomery, “Selma, Lord, Selma” helped to raise con-sciousness about the role of youth in the movement.

“Young people were so amazed that children were in-volved,” she said about the film, which aired on the Disney Chan-nel well into the 2000s. “It show-cased the courage it took from a child’s perspective that wasn’t or-dinary.”

Directors Burnett and Du-Vernay each took great pains to demonstrate the unjust practices of local officials who prevented blacks from registering to vote. In the film currently in theaters, An-nie Lee Cooper (Oprah Winfrey) is asked to list the names of the 67 county judges throughout the state. A like scene from Burnett’s picture shows Amelia Boynton (Elisabeth Omilami) in the court-house being instructed to guess the number of jelly beans in a massive jar on the counter.

Both DuVernay and Burnett took creative license in depicting the death of activist Jimmie Lee Jackson. In “Selma, Lord, Selma,” Jackson is killed on Bloody Sun-day. In “Selma,” Jackson (Keith Stanfield) is shot in a restaurant after fleeing from cops at a late-night demonstration.

Burnett was excited when he heard that DuVernay would be at the helm of a new King film.

“I knew it was going to be a good film if she’s behind it,” he said. She exceeded his expecta-tions, he said, and has handled herself well following allegations of historical inaccuracies in her portrayal of President Johnson.

Burnett knows the feeling all too well after facing criticism for his portrayal of Joseph Smither-man, mayor of Selma during the time of the march. After doing weeks of research, Burnett be-lieved the mayor to be a passive supporter of the demonstrations. As such, in “Selma, Lord, Selma,” Smitherman (Tom Nowicki) is depicted in a better light than other white government officials. “It looked to me that he was a little different than the others, the people who were protesting the march,” Burnett said. “One day, I ran into this guy who was much more familiar with the situation, and particularly the mayor, and he said that in reality, [the may-or] was one of the worst people against civil rights.”

“Selma, Lord, Selma” inac-curately showed the death of Daniels, a seminarian volunteer, Webb-Christburg said. It showed him being murdered in Selma, when he actually was killed in neighboring Lowndes County.

People shouldn’t expect ev-ery detail in a dramatic work to

be factually correct, said Burnett, who also directed the 1977 film “Killer of Sheep” and the 2007 film “Namibia: The Struggle for Liberation.”

“Every film alters the fact of whatever it is,” he said. The blow-back that DuVernay has received, he said, is “somewhat unfair and taken out of proportion.”

“I think scholars have a right to point out if there are things that are wrong with anything,” he said. “We’re all subject to criticism. But, OK, it was said. Is there a point where we move on?”

A member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sci-ences since the early ‘90s, Burnett doesn’t know if the negative pub-licity led to the perceived Oscar snubs of DuVernay and the film’s star, David Oyelowo.

What’s more important, he said, is the timeliness of the pic-ture. Considering recent social and political conversations, from the U.S. Supreme Court striking down parts of the Voting Rights Act in 2013 to the local and na-tional responses to police bru-tality, he said those who watch “Selma” should realize “the fight isn’t over.”

“This is just a reminder that these people went through this process and a lot of those things that they fought for are being challenged now.”

The DMACC baseball team ran its record to 3-3 with two victories in a three-game series against Barton County Community College (BCCC) February 20 and 21 at Great Bend, Kan.

The two teams split a pair of games Feb. 20. DMACC took the opener, 5-4, and dropped the nightcap, 5-1. The Bears won the only game on Feb. 21, 5-0.

Sophomore Anthony Mrosla of

Baseball team improves to 3-3Coon Rapids, Minn., and freshmen Brad Mathiowetz of Rochester, Minn., and Eric Weisbrod of Racine, Wis., had two hits apiece to lead the Bears past BCCC in the Feb. 20 opener. DMACC led all the way, scoring a pair of runs in the first and one run each in the second, fourth and fifth innings. BCCC tallied one run in the second and three in the sixth inning of the seven-inning game.

Freshman London Vais of Adair scored a career-high 31 points to lead the Des Moines Area Community College (DMACC) women’s basketball team to an 83-77 win over Iowa Central Community College (ICCC) February 21 at Fort Dodge.

Freshman Kiana Peterson of Madrid

Women win 83-77 at ICCCcame away with 15 points, all on three-point baskets, and sophomore Latasha Harmon of Milwaukee, Wis., had 13 as the Bears improved to 18-11 for the season and leveled their Iowa Community College Athletic Conference (ICCAC) record at 6-6.

The DMACC Bears (22-4) went against the Spartans from Southwest Iowa Community College (18-9) Feb. 14 for their second conference matchup game in Creston and won 83-78 in quite the fashion in an overtime game.

“We knew they weren’t going to let us blow them out again,” said Bears point guard Marquet Newsome from Normal, Ill. “We were prepared for their best effort out there, and that’s what we got.”

The last time these two teams met there was a 50 point spread in the Bears’ favor. The Bears came out firing right away, which led to an early 15 point lead in the first half. But soon after the Spartans caught fire and limited the first half to be only a 7 point lead by the Bears.

“By the end of the half, we looked like a totally different team out there. That may have been some of the worst basketball that we have played all year,” stated redshirt Tate Larsen from Des Moines, Iowa.

About halfway through the second half the Spartans found a way to limit the game to be a one possession game, trailing

only by 3 points. A set of three pointers by the Spartans later gave them a 6 point lead during the game with only 40 seconds left to play. DMACC Bears guard Trey Samp-son of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, hit a very clutch 3 point basket to limit the Spartans lead to just 3 with 12 seconds left to play. After the shot the Bears fouled to put the Spar-tans on the line. After a missed free-throw, DMACC’s Aarias Austin threw a pass to Sampson for a 3 point bucket to tie the game as regulation expired.

Overtime started by a hard fast break dunk by Bears forward Jamar Hurdle, which seemed to give the Bears some more momentum. Soon after Hurdle’s dunk, Austin followed up with a 3 point basket to give the Bears a 5 point advantage. The Bears never looked back from there. After this game, DMACC was 8-1 in conference play. They are set to play the Tritons of Iowa Central on Feb. 21 for another con-ference matchup in Fort Dodge, IA.

Can feminism and chivalry coexist?

by Sarah MullerStaff Writer

It’s reached that moment in the evening. He reaches out. I’m getting nervous. Then, just like that, he opens the door. I exhale all of the tensions because the chance has passed and he has

allowed me to succumb to his gesture as a gentleman. This has happened on almost every date I’ve been on, which has raised the question: Where can chivalry and feminism coexist? Now before you pull out your pitchforks and torches, let’s break down the definitions.

According to Dictionary.com, chivalry is “the sum of the ideal qualifications of a knight, including courtesy, generosity, valor, and dexterity in arms.” Now, I’m not expecting my date to roll up to my place on a white stallion with recently buffed metal armor on. More research shows that over time society has developed chivalry into a word referring to the respectful du-ties of a man, typically toward a

woman.As for feminism, Dictionary.

com says feminism is “the doc-trine advocating social, political, and all other rights of women equal to those of men.” Please notice that it does not declare that all women hate men or want to put down men. It simply states that we are just as capable of achieving the same things as men are.

How I see, being a gentle-man and showing acts of chiv-alry is a form of respect towards women. It’s a way of men show-ing that they care. On the other hand, if I make a dinner for my significant other on date night, that doesn’t mean that I’m falling into a housewife stereotype, it means that I enjoy cooking and

Southern colleges still wrestle with racist pasts(TNS)Tillman Hall is the building

that goes on the Clemson Univer-sity posters, at least the ones that don’t feature the football stadium or an orange paw print. The red brick building with a clock tower is the grandest and best-known structure on campus. It’s also named for a vehement racist. The building’s namesake, Benjamin Tillman, was a South Carolina governor and U.S. senator in the late 19th century, best known for his fiery rhetoric and for helping to craft the Jim Crow laws. He also helped found Clemson.

Clemson along with other Southern universities, and even some in the North is now wres-tling with that troubled legacy. The Clemson Faculty Senate last week passed a resolution asking the administration asking to change the name. Jane Lindle, an education professor with an of-fice in the building who is on the Faculty Senate, said that its name presents two sets of problems for her. On a practical level, it’s “an obstacle” to attracting talented faculty. The history behind the name is a deterrent, and its quo-tidian familiarity creates an ethi-cal problem: “It raises the issue of why aren’t we educating folks better about some of the nega-tive symbolism that they take for granted,” she said.

For students who know the history, the name can send a hurtful message. A black Clem-son student named Edith Dunlap told the Greenville News that to see the building on her campus is a “slap in the face.”

Still, for many schools, effac-ing that history is a problematic choice. Clemson issued a state-ment last week, saying that its board will not change the name. “We believe that other, more meaningful, initiatives should be implemented that will have more of an impact on the diversity of our campus than this symbolic gesture,” the statement said.

Debates of this kind have been simmering for several years. Earlier this month, students at the University of North Carolina’s flagship campus in Chapel Hill protested to change the name of Saunders Hall, a history building named for William Saunders, a Confederate colonel and later

leader in the Ku Klux Klan. In 2010, the University of Texas wound up changing the name of a dormitory from Simkins (an-other Klansman) to Creekside.

In each of these situations, the central question has focused on where the line is between acknowledging the past and glorifying it. It is impossible to rename every building that has a connection to slavery or the op-pression of black people. Thomas Clemson, for whom Clemson University is named, was a slave owner. So was George Washing-ton.

In their statement, Clemson’s trustees argue against changing the name, saying “every great institution is built by imperfect craftsmen,” and that the univer-sity cannot undo its past. “Stone by stone they add to the founda-tion so that over many, many generations, we get a variety of stones,” the statement says. “And so it is with Clemson. Some of our historical stones are rough and even unpleasant to look at. But they are ours and denying them as part of our history does not make them any less so.”

But others argue that it’s one thing to acknowledge that an institution (or a nation) was founded in a less just time, and quite another to continue to honor people who directly and violently worked to preserve that injustice, especially since renam-ing a building is so simple.

After a 2012 incident, when a mob of students protesting President Barack Obama’s re-election chanted racial slurs, the University of Mississippi appoint-ed a committee to address issues of insensitivity on campus. That committee came up with a list of recommendations, one of which was the renaming of a building called Vardaman Hall.

James Vardaman became the governor of Mississippi in 1903, riding into office on a wave of racial hatred. He referred to the African-American race as a “lazy, lying, lustful animal, which no amount of training can transform into a tolerable citizen.” Another of his choice quotations: “If it is necessary every Negro in the state will be lynched; it will be done to maintain white suprem-acy.”

The “rewriting history” argu-ment doesn’t work for Charles Ross, an African-American stud-ies professor who sat on the com-mittee. In his view, things like the school’s confederate soldier statue, or the fact that there was once a building called “Varda-man,” belong in a museum, or at the nearby Confederate cemetery. He says they belong in a place whose purpose is expressly his-torical, not commemorative.

“We’re not trying to erase the past but don’t try to make me embrace it,” he said. “When these things were decided, when it was the decision to name Vardaman Hall, when it was the decision to put up the Confederate statue, African-Americans were not a part of that decision-making process.”

After the committee issued its recommendations in the sum-mer of 2013, The University of Mississippi sought guidance from administrators at the University of Richmond in Virginia and the University of Texas. The result-ing report included Vardaman Hall on a list of landmarks and building names to contextualize, though it did not explicitly call for a name change.

In its response to this report, as well as the one from the uni-versity committee, the admin-istration did decide in 2014 to change the name of a street on campus from Confederate Drive to Chapel Lane, but has no plans to rename buildings, said Danny Blanton, the university’s director of public relations. The university does plan to contextualize some of its symbols, though no specific plan has been put into action yet.

“We haven’t made any other name changes,” Blanton said. “Instead of doing away with them, we’re going to put markers on them to provide a historical perspective on what they meant to the state and the university, respectively.”

Vardaman Hall currently houses the school’s William Win-ter Institute for Racial Reconcili-ation, among other departments.

These issues of problematic histories, of course, are not exclu-sive to Southern schools. Some of the country’s oldest institutions date back to a time when slavery was legal throughout the nation.

Brown University, for example, is named for John Brown, a slave trader. In 2007, a committee de-vised a list of recommendations for how the university should acknowledge that past.

But often in the South, that problematic history is interwoven with the school’s current culture and identity. In the case of the University of Mississippi, it is the slave age that gave birth to the nickname “Ole Miss.”

“Slavery and the era of segregation were always a part of the identity of this institution,” Ross said. “On the plantation, slaves referred to the plantation owner’s wife as ‘Ole Miss’ and the daughter as ‘Ole Missy.’”

The external report ad-dressed this question, too, saying the school should consider the name’s implications. University Chancellor Dan Jones ultimately drew the conclusion that “regard-less of its origin, the vast majority of those associated with our uni-versity has a strong affection for ‘Ole Miss’ and do not associate its use with race in any way.”

Ross said he disagrees with this line of argument. “It is psy-chologically problematic when you understand what the term is,” he said. “The vast majority of the football players are African-American and on these helmets they have ‘Ole Miss.’”

Donald Cole, the university’s assistant to the chancellor for multicultural affairs, was one of the university committee’s chairs. He said the recommendations “gave some leeway” and that this resolution “is not the end of the book.”

Cole said that during the process, he had heard from an organization called the Sons of Confederate Veterans in a letter that brought up possible legal ac-tion should the school attempt to remove or relocate its confederate monument. Cole said he thought the school administrators prob-ably received similar input from that group or other ones.

“There are many people out there who have an alternative voice,” Cole said. “Part of what we have to do is educate those individuals. That’s all I know to do.”

am showing that I appreciate him.

If I’m on a date with my bae, I’m also okay with picking up the bill or opening my own door every once and a while. He shouldn’t feel like any less of a man, because it’s my way of respecting him. Dating can be expensive, especially at the col-lege age. So, when partaking in activities that cost such as dinner out, movies, or bowling, chipping in is a way for women to making the playing field equal.

In conclusion, I’m a firm believer that chivalry and feminism can coexist. As long as couples communicate about their expectations in the relationship and are able to depict the levels of respect, no sexists wars will spark.

Francine Faraday dies and leaves her entire estate to her longtime companion H.P. Manly. While the loyal mem-bers of Francine’s staff are delighted, her money-hungry relatives are furious. Though the will is iron-clad, the relatives find that they can inherit the fortune if H.P. dies of “natural” causes. As the family plots H.P.’s demise, the staff schemes to save him, resulting in counter-plots and mixed-up romances aplenty.
