Each oneo them is proo that aJayhawk is successul anddriven, no matter whereit lands.
We extend a warmwelcome home to

While it may not be the
Christmas season just yet, Jayhawkcolors can be seen adorning theoutside o residences both on
and o campus. Glow KU isone o the many Homecoming
Week traditions celebrated by theUniversity.
Sororities and raternities teamup to show their school spirit andcelebrate homecoming, trying to
successully decorate their housesor Glow KU.
First and oremost it takes a loto work, and denitely involvescohesion between the groups along
with getting things done togetherefciently, said Hal McCoy, a
homecoming chairmen romWichita.
However, it is not only the Greekcommunity who participates. Lastyear Scholarship Halls, the Dole
Institute o Politics, the BlackStudent Union, the University
Daily Kansan, and the School oEngineering all participated. Tisevent is open to all homeowners
and businesses within theLawrence community.
Each team competes to havethe best house - one that screams
Rock Chalk and conveys astrong sense o school spirit. Tegoal is to bring as much hype
to the Lawrence community in
celebration o homecoming.Te lights can be holiday lights,
blue or red light bulbs, spotlightsor any orm o light that emits
red and/or blue, reads the KUAlumni page. Tis event will take
place during Homecoming Week,starting Sunday, Sept. 29 through
Saturday, Oct. 5, to show ourJayhawk spirit.
While Glow KU is just one aspect
o Homecoming Week, it hasquickly become one o the most
popular and highly talked aboutevents.
Imagining campus completely
illuminated, I can see Glow KUreally becoming a great addition
to a special week, said BryneGonzales, Vice President o Alpha
au Omega Fraternity romAmarillo, exas.
However, these seven days
are truly about celebrating ourJayhawk pride, and passion or our
community. Whether it is throughdecorating or simply exchanging
a Rock Chalk, with a ellowstudent, there really is no betterplace to be than t he University
o Kansas during HomecomingWeek.

Student groups will be judged on

tion, clearness, volume, costumesand cooperation.
Jayhawk Jingles is open to all stu-dent groups participating in home-coming. Te riendly and creative
competition allows students to winpoints toward homecoming while
providing entertainment or all othose attending Food Fest.
Jingles is a great event that trulygathers the KU community as awhole, said Abbey Buchanan,
junior rom Chaska, Minn., andCampus Outreach C o-Chair.
Food Fest and Jayhawk Jinglesbrings everyone together or some
great ood and entertainment,
while demonstrating pride in ourschool.
Events and estivities like
Jayhawk Jingles remain a part othe homecoming tradition each
year, but have evolved immenselythroughout the years. Originally
called Jayhawk Follies, it was atalent show put on by individualsas well as groups o students. Tis
year the Homecoming SteeringCommittee is working to promote
creativity and enhance the enter-tainment actor.
In years past, each team wouldseparately perorm the Alma Ma-ter, which to me elt too repetitive,
Buchanan said. So this year we arehaving all the participants perorm

Past and present Jayhawk
twirlers Beverly Bernardi Post
and Shannon Livengood both
have a passion or baton twirling
and share the experience o
holding the national champion
title during their collegiate years.
Baton twirling has changed
immensely since Post held the
position or the University
rom 1974-1978. Livengood, a
junior rom Clay Center, enjoys
listening to old stories rom
previous twirlers and comparing
how the position she currently
holds has changed throughout
the years.
Post attended opeka High
School, where she held the
position as eature twirler
and perormed at high school
ootball games.
When I got ready to go to
college, I didnt know where to
go but I wanted to stay close
to home so I could continue
teaching dance and baton three
or our days a week in opeka,
Post said.
Post distinctly remembers
perorming during halime at a
memorable Notre Dame versus
Kansas basketball game.
Tis guy came over to me
and said, When we go to
commercial break, I am putting
you on national television, Post
said. Post said the experience
was one o the thrills o [her]
lietime.
Livengood is currently
under direction o the band
department and, rather than
perorming at basketball games,
twirls at ootball games and at
the pregame with the Marching
Jayhawks.
My entire reshman year,
I didnt get to perorm at any
basketball games and my
sophomore year, I needed a
separate try out, Livengood
said. Livengood will perorm
at halime during one womens
and one mens basketball game
this season.
Livengood can be seen leading
the Marching Jayhawks down
the hill during the homecoming
parade. Post was not considered
part o the band and did not
lead the Marching Jayhawks to
Memorial Stadium beore each
game.
Neither twirler was given
a coach, choreographer or
sponsored by the University.
I spend most o my time
practicing alone, making up my
own routines with a song chosen
by the band director, Livengood
said. Unless I am able to reserve
Robinson Auditorium or nd a
spot at the [recreation center], I
practice outdoors.
Trough shared memories and
comparative experiences, both
Post and Livengood agree that
twirling or the University has
been an honor. Livengood hopes
to continue twirling or the
University until she graduates
and, eventually, nd a uture
twirler with enough experience
to ollow in her and Posts
ootsteps.

In a retirement community inLenexa lives an old woman with
a piano. Photos o ormer music
students and amily sit on the
shelves, and old newspapers andsheet music are propped against
the wall. For many o the students
in the photos, this piano gave start
to their music lessons in theiryouth. As the young students
plucked their rst notes, the sounds
would join together and create the
amiliar tune o the University ghtsong. Tough the children didnt
realize it, this song wasnt only thebeginning o their music careers,
but their teachers as well. As theirteacher taught them the notes,
she remembers, playing the same
notes with the Marching Jayhawks
during homecoming.In September 1943, Jayhawk
ootball spectators were shocked
at the site o women marching
into Memorial Stadium, wearingnot dresses, but the same crimson
and blue marching band uniorms
as their male peers. Among these
women marched Marjorie LeeMarlee Skeen-Parmiter, one
o the rst emales to join the
Marching Jayhawks.
With World War II calling the
men to service, the marchingband needed to add women to its
ensemble to compensate or theloss o men. At the time, this radical
idea was necessary to maintain theband or ootball and basketball
games.
Meanwhile, Skeen-Parmiter had
received a music scholarship rom
the University aer receiving a
highly superior score on her piano
solo at state competition. When shearrived at the University, there was
a need or women in the marching
band, so Parmiter joined and
marched with her Baritone on theront rank, the tallest o all the girls.
Parmiter said that it wasnt easy
being a girl in the marching band.
She said that the critics were readyto pounce on the girls i they
didnt play correctly. Despite this,
Parmiter and the other women
remained in the band.Tere used to be a time when
they hated it so much, to have girlsin the marching band, Parmiter
said, but the war was on, and ithey didnt have you, they wouldnt
have a band.
Women were banned rom
the Marching Jayhawks in 1948,
ollowing the end o World WarII. Tough their participation was
brie, women were an importantpart o the band during the war
the band likely wouldnt haveexisted without emale additions.
Parmiter recalls a memory o
Dr. Gastin, head o the music
department at the time, calling
on her one evening to pick up
an instrument and play in the
orchestra.When they needed a trombone
player in the orchestra, I had
happened to come by the ofce
and Dr. Gastin said Here, take thishorn and get over to Hoch. Tey
need a trombone. And I said Well
I dont play trombone and he said
Well, youll give it a try.Parmiter said she recalls Dr.
Gastin noticed things that other
teachers did not.
Dr. Gastin was something else,Parmiter said. He was meaner
than a junkyard dog. He called mein one time to thank me or being
so nice to these two young men mysenior year. And I said Well Dr.
Gastin, why wouldnt I be? Tey
were two gay students. He was
thanking me or being nice to themand they were as nice as they could
be. It wouldnt have occurred to
me to be any other way. Dr. Gastin
really did notice a lot o thingsabout you.
Mentors like Dr. Gastin inspired
Parmiter become a music teacher
hersel.I just think KU has the best
music [education] department
in the country, Parmiter said. I
know that is prejudiced, but they
had the most practical approach toteaching, I thought.
Beore her music-teachingcareer began, Parmiter had the
opportunity to work or Phog Allenas a secretary. As she sat in her
piano room, she recalled with both
embarrassment and admiration
a memory o Phog asking her toblush or a amous photographer
and later apologizing to her.
Te head photographer or Lie
Magazine came in during the war,
Parmiter said. Phog asked me tocome in there and introduce me to
him, and I wasnt used to meeting
amous people and this was aamous person. He [Phog] said,
Ive got one o the ew emales on
the hill that still blush. Blush or
him Marlee! I just got as red asall. Te next day, I ound a box o
chocolates and a letter o apology
on my typewriter.
Aer graduating rom the
University, Parmiter taught inmany cities across the state, rom
opeka to Bonner Springs and as ar
as Central Kansas. Since marchingin the band, Parmiters lie has
changed considerably, but the
University has remained a constant
reminder o her beginning.I loved Lawrence, Parmiter said.
I just really did because so many
people loved music and wanted the
very best. I just loved KU. I really
did. Edited by Chas Strobel

Frank Seurer was thequarterback at Kansas rom
1980-1983. Aer his time at the
university, Seurer went on to play
or the Kansas City Chies. In1983, Seurer gained 2,660 yards o
total oense, resulting in a second
place standing in the University
record books.A car accident ended Seurers
proessional ootball career. He is
now a reghter in Olathe.
WHAT WAS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE
MEMORIES FROM YOUR COLLEGE
FOOTBALL CAREER?
I obviously made some great
riends rom Kansas and am
ortunate to still be very close
to them right now, even though
I played back in the early 80s.
I am rom Southern Caliorniaoriginally, so we got a chance to
play USC in the College Jam. Tey
were the 3-touchdown avorite
and we ended up beating them.We also had the chance to beat
Missouri a couple times, which
was very, very un. A win against
them always means a lot to boththe Jayhawk players and ans. I
have been ortunate enough to
stay in contact with a lot o people.
John Hail, who was the assistant
athletic director at the time, andI still remain very good riends.
Being a Jayhawk has been a nice,
long journey.
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE
HOMECOMING TRADITION?
We didnt really get a huge
chance to participate. But it was
always un to speak to the crowd
beore the games, and talk to thestudents. It always involved a lot o
excitement and emotion.
WHAT DO YOU THINK IT MEANS TO BE A
JAYHAWK?
Its one o those things that very
ew people will know about unless
they actually experience it especially coming rom Caliornia
to Kansas and not knowing much
o what KU was all about. As
soon as you get on campus andget involved with the people who
are there, it doesnt take long to
understand what it is all about, and
the importance o the closeness o
everybody. Jayhawk pride comes
through with everyone involvedwith it.
IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN TIME AND
GIVE YOUR COLLEGE FRESHMEN-SELF
ADVICE, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
Dont wish it away. It goes by so
ast and people are really anxious
to get [their] degree. Tat happensast enough, so take it all in. Get
involved with all the dierent
activities. I was always into sports,
but I wish I could have been
involved in theater and Greek lie.Tere is so much to oer at the
school. It is oolish i you dont
take advantage.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE JAYHAWK
TRADITION?
Cora Schimke:My avorite traditionis denitely waving the wheat,especially at ootball games whenwe can see the entire stadiumwaving their arms.Ann McCroskey: I would denitelyhave to say Late Night in the Phog.It is such an awesome tradition andthere is nothing like the eeling obeing in Allen Fieldhouse.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART OF
BEING A ROCK CHALK DANCER?
Schimke: Te community that weshare with all o the girls meansso much to me. We are like aclose-knit amily, always there orhelp and companionship or eachother.McCroskey: When we were there,because we were creating thesquad rom scratch, we became ateam very quickly because we hadto prove that we really belongedthere, because the dance team
didnt even exist then. I am stillvery close to a lot o those girlstoday.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE EXPERIENCE
WITH THE ROCK CHALK DANCERS?
McCroskey: I remember going tothe Final Four with the mensbasketball team one year. Tatwas the same year we werethe Cinderella team. I reallyremember how Bob Foster andthe marching band took us undertheir wings and helped us as wewere getting started. We traveledwith them and really ormed agreat connection with the bandmembers.Schimke: I love all o the travelgames. We create so manymemories as a team. Last year wegot to go to the mens basketballBig 12 Championship game andeven though it wasnt in Lawrence,it still elt like it was in Lawrencebecause there were so many KUans there.
DESCRIBE YOUR FIRST HOMECOMING.
McCroskey:Te rst was a really biglearning experience or us becausewe really didnt know what toexpect, or what people were
expecting ous. We hadto be reallycareul notto mess upt r a d i t i o n s ,e s p e c i a l l y because somany KUAlumni comeback or homecoming. Tere issomething about the KU spiritthat hasnt changed. It has justgotten bigger and bigger and moreexciting every year.Schimke: I remember my rsttime marching in the parade andthrowing candy to the kids. Its aheartwarming experience becauseit gives you a chance to be moreone-on-one with your ans. It isincredible to see how many p eoplecome back to KU each year. Seeingthe an base grow and grow eachyear, and seeing all the peoplewho come all the way back just orone weekend because it means somuch to them, means a lot to me.

Yell leaders stoke spirit in
homecoming eventsWHAT DID YOU LIKE ABOUT
HOMECOMING?
Homecoming as a student wasalways a great time because it
seemed like the entire campus
came to lie with enthusiastic
Jayhawks everywhere just takingin every part o Lawrence. All
o them were always ready to
share what they loved about the
University and their experienceas a student. As an alum, any
time I come back to Lawrence
or homecoming it takes me back
to some o the best days o mylie. Right when I pull into town,
the nostalgia starts to hit me. I
remember things like setting my
room up or the rst time withall o the new stu I brought to
start living on my own to some
o the great moments like when
KU made it to the Final Fourand we all packed Wescoe Beach
to celebrate! Tere were so many
great moments or me at KU and
it is always a great eeling to comeback to Lawrence.
SINCE YOU WERE A YELL LEADER, WAS
HOMECOMING MORE ENJOYABLE?
As a yell leader, I believe my
experience o
homecomingwas unique
because I got
to take in the
a t m o s p h e r eo game day
at Memorial
Stadium. No
matter how the ootball teamwas doing, Memorial Stadium
was always lled the most on
homecoming day. Getting to be
on the eld looking up into thestands at all o the people enjoying
the experience made it a great day
or me. I always thought o my role
as a yell leader as a representativeo the University and I wanted to
show the alumni that KU was still
being represented well. We always
had alumni cheer squad membersback and on the eld with us and
it was great to talk with them
about their experiences.
HOW WERE OTHER HOMECOMINGS
DIFFERENT FROM YOUR
EXPERIENCES?
I am sure that everyone hadresponsibilities and events during
homecoming and that everyone
enjoyed the experience. Te only
thing that was probably dierentor me, as a yell leader, was that
we had a schedule o events
throughout the day that kept mebusy rom early in the morning
until late into the aernoon. I
think a dierent vantage point
was really the only dierence.I was essentially perorming
throughout the day and others
were taking the day in! I enjoyed
my role and responsibilities as ayell leader and appreciated the
opportunity to do it or our years.
I am still one o the Jayhawks
biggest ans and have passed theJayhawk passion on to my wie
and three children, ages seven, ve
and three. We are always wearing
crimson and blue on game days.Te kids all know the Rock Chalk
chant and even get some o the
words to the alma mater right as
they put their arms around eachother and sway back and orth.
Really, the entire experience o
being a yell leader was incredible
or me. I developed tremendousriendships and got to experience
so many incredible things. On
top o that, representing the
University o Kansas is somethingI enjoyed then and now. Rock
Chalk!

Marching Jayhawk, MarshaHanenberger, junior fromRochester, Minn.HOW DID YOU GET INVOLVED WITH THE
COLORGUARD AT KU?
In high school, I was on the guardteam or three years. Te last twoo those years I was elected captaino the team and had to write andchoreograph the work that wentinto the shows. When I startedlooking at universities my senioryear o high school I decided Ihad to be part o a marching bandbecause the riends you makethrough band end up being likeamily. Tis idea was incrediblyimportant to me since I was movingso ar away rom my hometown.
So, aer a lot o research throughmy dierent options, I obviouslychose KU. Tere are so manyawesome traditions aliated withthe band here. All I had to do tosign up was register or BAND 210and audition at a camp beore thestart o the season to get on theteam. O course to actually get onthe team I had to have previousmarching experience and enoughtechnique with a fag to know whatI was doing. I also had to showthat I could learn quick enoughunder pressure since we spin a newroutine and learn an entire newshow every home game.
WHY DO YOU ENJOY GAMEDAY SO
MUCH?
Te pregame is awesome. Myavorite part o it has got to bethe run on to the eld. Te drums
come out on the eld and althoughthe student section hasn't reallyshowed up yet, the alumni have,and the band is an importantaspect o the alumni experience.You can hear all the peoplecheering as we come runningdown the stairs rom the tunnelsand onto the eld, and the energystays pumped or the rest o theshow. Our rst perormance othe game really sets the stage orhow excited people are or thegame aerwards. Its like a warmup or the crowd beore they get tosee our ootball team. My secondavorite part o pregame is ouralma mater. Hearing Crimsonand the Blue being sung all theway around the stadium at such animpressive volume gives me chillsevery time.

Zach Brown, a ourth year archi-tecture student rom Liberty, Mo.,
participated last year with his ra-ternity, Lambda Chi Delta.
"It isn't always about winning,"
Brown said. "Honestly, when we
were designing the concept weweren't even thinking about i it
would be the competition winningentry or not. We were just havingun with it and trying out the rst
ideas that came to our heads.Chalking was a way or he and his
raternity brothers to bond.We had a blast designing and
creating it together, so in the longrun that is all that matters in myopinion, he s aid. Te act that our
entry did well in the competition isjust icing on the cake."
In addition to Chalk 'n' Rock,there is a mural contest onWednesday rom 10 a.m to 2 p.m.

Some things should be le in the80s: shoulder pads, Madonna and a
quarter o Arnold Schwarzeneggers
lmography, to name a ew. But is a
Massachusets Street Homecomingparade one o those things?
From 1984 to 1990, homecoming
parades took place downtown on
Massachusetts Street. Since then,theyve been held on Jayhawk
Boulevard. And that seems like a
logical place or it to be. But this
year, the parade is moving back to
Mass. Originally, the parade wasset or the night o Oct. 4, but Late
Night at the Phog got in the way.Steering Committee member
Holly Laferty was one o themasterminds behind the change.
We were originally planning on
doing it on campus on Friday
[Oct. 4] at 6 p.m. but, because they
moved Late Night to that Friday,
we decided to move it to Tursday[Oct. 3]we decided it was a good
opportunity to change it up and
move to Mass Street again.
Jennier Sanner, senior vicepresident or communications
at the Adams Alumni Center,
agrees with the move. It makes a
lot o sense to have [the parade]downtown on Tursday when you
have Late Night on Friday and all
the excitement it brings. Why not
extend the excitement to another
evening?And its going to be exciting.
Keeping with this years theme,Jayhawks Around the World,
alumnus Brian McLendon willact as grand marshal or the
parade. We thought, How cool
would it be to have Jayhawks
Around the World and have the
creator o Google Earth be [grand
marshall]? Laferty said.Elle Rose o the Steering
Committee said,
We as a committee decided who
we were going to invite [to be grandmarshal]. We knew McLendon
was a KU alum and we were dead-
set on that.
With this years lineup oGoogle royalty and resh scenery,
the homecoming parade is not
something to be missed. It will
take place on Tursday, Oct. 3 at 6
p.m. Aerwards, be sure to catcha pep rally at 8th Street and New
Hampshire.

WHAT COMPANY DO YOU WORK
FOR? WHAT DO YOU DO FOR THIS
COMPANY?
I work as a publishing
executive for the Middle
Easts largest magazine and
media publishers. Tis meansI get to work on a number of
projects across our consumer
and business titles, including
Harpers Bazaar Arabia,Professional Jeweler,
Cosmopolitan Middle East,
Grazia, Good Housekeeping
Middle East and ime OutDubai/Abu Dhabi/Qatar, etc.
I tend to lean more toward
editorial and marketing work,
whether it is putting togethera special supplement, coming
up with concepts, executing
an event, advising on design
or liaising with the advertisingteam on new business. A career
in media in the Middle East
poses its own challenges and
advantagesin many ways itis expanding here where other
world markets are struggling.
HOW DID BEING A JAYHAWK
ENHANCE YOUR EXPERIENCE?
Almost everywhere Ive been in
the world Ive found common
ground with someone about
the university. Whether its
attending KU Alumni eventswhen Im in London visiting
family, or Final Four watch
parties with friends in Africa,
UK, or the Middle East. I evenfound fellow Jayhawk fans in
Syria. I was walking home from
my gym in Damascus one day,
wearing a much-loved Jayhawkt-shirt when out of nowhere,
from across the street I heard a
loud Rock Chalk Jayhawk! TeJayhawk Nation extends a lotfurther than I ever could have

WHEN YOU WERE OVERSEAS,WHERE DID YOU LIVE AND HOW
LONG DID YOU STAY THERE?
I lived in Mrida, Spain orone years time ollowing mygraduation rom KU. I residedin Extremadura, which is onthe very western edge o thecountry and is nestled on theborder with Portugal, romAugust 2008 to 2009. Myresidence abroad also coincidedwith the 2008 recession,which I experienced rom aninternational perspective, aswell as the 2008 presidentialelection.
WHAT COMPANY DID YOU WORK
FOR? WHAT DID YOU DO FOR THISCOMPANY?
During my year in Spain, I wasemployed by the Ministry oEducation o the autonomousregion o Extremadura.Each week I taught Englishconversation courses to middleand high school students attwo institutes named Senz deBuruaga and Ruta de la Pl ata.Te ministry placed othernative English speakers rom avariety o countriesnamelyEngland, Australia, Canadaand Scotlandat other publicschools around the region.
HOW DID BEING A JAYHAWK
ENHANCE YOUR EXPERIENCEOVERSEAS?
As a student, Id alreadystudied abroad twice throughthe encouragement o theuniversity and my proessors,which prepared me or therigors and challenges oimmersing mysel in anotherculture. My language skillswere more advanced than thato my peers and Id alreadyventured to learn severaladditional languages thanksto the vast oerings at theuniversity. [One languagewas] Portuguese, which came
in handy during a eld tripto vora, Portugal, when I
became the translator betweenmy Spanish students and thePortuguese students at theschool we were visiting. Duringmy classes at the universitywe hadnt ocused solely ongrammar and conversation, butalso culture which was a hugeactor in my seamless transitionto Spain.

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO COME

Ive traveled around the Statesbeore and the places I wentwere lovely, but I didnt want to
go somewhere where I wouldgo on holiday. I wanted realpeople and real culture.
SO FAR, WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR
FAVORITE PART ABOUT KANSAS?
Probably the rst ootballgame, because Ive never beento anything like it. When wegot there it was so hot, but Ithought it was worth it. Weollowed the band insideand they were playing, andI remember, I turned to myriend and said that this is
just like being in Disneyland.It was so surreal. Its not juststudents who come, but alsothe past students and acultyand riends. Its nothing like
that back home. I mean, whenthe anthem came on there wasa y by. It was amazing ora school, but it didnt makesense. When something isso dierent than what youreexpecting or used to, you justdont know how to take it. Itwas just wow.
ALUMNI
DID YOU STUDY ABROAD WHILE
ATTENDING KU?
I mean my two years at KU wereone huge study abroad thing. Iwas an international student romRussia on a Fulbright scholarship.
WHAT COMPANY DO YOU WORK FOR IN
MOSCOW?
Upon my arrival I got aneditorial job with Russia oday,a big international V channel.I worked there on the interviewshow Spotlight. Now Im inthe process o getting a new jobin a major Russian productioncompany which makes videos orseveral V channels.
HOW DID BEING A JAYHAWK ENHANCE
YOUR EXPERIENCE AND THE
OPPORTUNITIES YOU HAVE BEEN
GIVEN?
First o all, my English level hasrisen extremely, which gives me acertain advantage in the Russianjob market. My internships withAl Jazeera and my work orKUJH-V and the Kansan gaveme hands-on experience I neededto enter a media job market. Ilearned how to conduct research,which it never hurts to know. Butwhat I value most is that I metso many wonderul people at theuniversity. Tey are all dierent,yet amazing. I wish I could havespent more time learning romthem.
STUDENT
WHERE DID YOU STUDY ABROAD
AND DURING WHAT YEAR OF
COLLEGE?
I studied abroad in Paris,France or the SummerLanguage Institute in Parisduring the summer betweenmy junior and senior years.
WHAT FAVORITE MEMORY DO YOU
HAVE OF YOUR EXPERIENCE?
I have so many avoritememories. I loved the tourportion o the trip where we
toured around France romNormandy to Brittany to theLoire Valley. It really cementedour bond as a group. I alsoloved getting to explore Parisin our ree time. Te last twonights we were there, me anda couple o my riends wentto the carnival in uileriesGarden and rode all o thecarnival rides. It was such anawesome view o Paris at nightand was the perect way to cap
STUDENT
WHERE DID YOU STUDY ABROAD AND
DURING WHAT YEAR OF COLLEGE?I studied in rier, Germany, inthe spring semester o 2013.
WHAT FAVORITE MEMORY DO YOU
HAVE OF YOUR EXPERIENCE?
I have too many avoritememories, but one o themwould be spending time withmy German roommates. Wewould cook together manyevenings, even though theyknew I wasn't a great cook (I wasa star vegetable chopper though)and aerwards we would havemovie nights. Te great thingwas that my roommates werenearly vegetarians, but also veryathletic.
WHAT DID YOU LEARN BY STUDYING
ABROAD?
I learned a lot about tolerance,patience and understanding.During my ten day trip to
Luxembourg or a class, I acedteachers who barely spokeEnglish. Communication was
rough and I became rustratedmany times. However, I knewthat i I gave it time and triedagain and again I would beable to get through it. I hadto be understanding; i Iwere teaching a student whocouldn't understand me, Icould only do so much. Insteadwe communicated by action,gestures, and drawings.
I also learned to enjoy lie andsocialize more oen. School inGermany is quite dierent romschool in the US (more laidback). Te University o Kansas'Graphic Design program ispretty demanding, in a goodway, but it was nice to take astroll and enjoy the little things
in a oreign place. My roommatewould always tell me I need tosocialize more. I didn't realize itwas such a problem, but because
o school I sacriced a lot o mysocial lie. I'm glad I was able tohave a laid back setting, because Ilearned to appreciate things I didn'tbeore and realize the dierencesbetween Europe and the US.Finally, I learned that we are prettywell o in the United States. We arevery privileged in getting many reethings (like ree public toilets orrells or drinks), having reedomin general, and being "bigger, better[and] aster." Te lie in the USseems to be a lot aster and moreconvenient, whereas in Europe Iwas able to take it slow and walkaround.
HOW DID THE COUNTRY YOU VISITED
DIFFER FROM THE US (FOOD, WHAT
WAS GOOD OR BAD ABOUT IT, CULTURE,
ETC)?I talked about it beore, butmany things diered rom theU.S. Germany was a little moreconservative than I was used to.My roommate was a politicalscience and journalism major, so Idenitely kept up to date with whatwas going on in the world. Onething that drove me crazy was thaton Sundays nearly everything wasclosed because Europe is largelyCatholic.Germany is great in being verywalkable and leaning more towarda village-city than 'suburbia.'Germany is also one o the cleanest,most sustainable countries I'vebeen in (I traveled to seven dierentcountries during my semester
stay); everyone separated trashrom recyclables and the streetswere cleaned every day. During theschool year, it seemed like therewas a holiday every other week.Germany has a lot o celebrationsand estivals, they really knowhow to party. Another wonderulthing about Germany is the breadselection; it makes American breadtaste like paper. I miss it dearly.
o the trip.
WHAT DID YOU LEARN BY STUDYING
ABROAD?
I learned a lot about culturaldierences. We take a lot o thingsor granted here in the States(air conditioning, or example,which Paris does not have). It'sso interesting to not only see theworld, but to see it rom a dierentcultural perspective. I eel more
independent and like I can handleany problem that comes at me.I went rom crying every nightbecause I missed home to cryingbecause I had to leave France. I Ican handle language barrier issuesand living in a completely oreigncity or a month, I eel like I canhandle anything.
HOW DID THE COUNTRY YOU VISITED
DIFFER FROM THE US?
France is very dierent rom theU.S. When I got there, I hated theood. I couldn't nd anything Iwanted to eat, because it was justso dierent. Te longer I was there,the more I grew to appreciatethe dierences and enjoy myexperiences. I even tried escargot!
Also, Parisians have a reputationin the U.S. or being rather rude,but that's not true at all. It's justanother cultural dierence.Parisians are more straightorwardand don't sugarcoat things likeAmericans do, but that doesn'tmake them rude. It's a difcultadjustment, but you soon learnthat in a big city like that, theirdemeanor is very understandableand appropriate.
ALUMNI
WHAT DO YOU DO IN TURKEY?
I currently work as an EnglishEducation Consultant at a privateschool called Akansu Koleji herein Kayseri, urkey. I teach Englishto 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th graders, aswell as doing private lessons with
students and adults alike. I lovemy job, and although the studentsare difcult to control at times, Ido enjoy seeing the looks on their
aces when they understandwhat I try to teach them.
WHAT IS IT LIKE LIVING OVERSEAS?
It is absolutely righteningliving in a country you've noknowledge o, regarding theculture and the language,and it orces you to learn asmuch as you can. I've onlybeen here or a short timeand I have had to learn someurkish to get around andto communicate with locals.Tey seem very receptive o mespeaking in their tongue. Teirencouragement and words opraise are very powerul actorsthat encourage you to keeplearning the country's cultureand language.

ATHLETE
HOW ARE YOU INVOLVED WITH KANSAS
ATHLETICS?
I was playing [volleyball] in Brazil
in 2001 when I got recruited toplay at Kansas. Some coaches rom
the U.S. were recruiting in Brazil
and I decided to go to Kansas
because at the time I did not speakany English and Kansas was the
only team with other Brazilians.
WHAT YEAR DID YOU GRADUATE?
I graduated in 2006 with a degreein Communications Studies.
WHATS YOUR EXPERIENCE OUTSIDE
THE COUNTRY?
Experience outside my country
was very hard during the rst
three months, but things were
better when I started to meet newpeople and when my English was
also getting b etter.
WHY DID YOU BECOME A JAYHAWK?
I became a Jayhawk or two
reasons. First, because I decided
to go a school where there were
others Brazilians that could helpme with the language, and second,
because Coach Jill Jones was the
nicest coach [out o] all o the
Americans recruiting.
HOW HAS YOUR EXPERIENCE ABROAD
IMPACTED YOUR LIFE?
My experience abroad has hada huge impact in my lie. At rst
when I graduated and I went
to Europe to play volleyball, I
could talk to anyone in Englisheverywhere I went. Now in Brazil
in order to have a good job you
need to speak good English as
well. Going to a school outside my
country has opened many doorsor me in my proessional career.
ANYTHING ELSE YOUD LIKE TO SHARE?
I am very happy and very proudto be a Jayhawk. I could not have
chosen a better school to go to.
Rock Chalk Jayhawk.

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO COME TO
KU?
I really loved the school spirit here.Its the real America. I watchedsome o the videos they haveabout the university and they werereally good. I thought it was justsomething completely new andIm the kind o person who likesto just plunge into something new.
SO FAR, WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR
FAVORITE PART ABOUT KANSAS?
I think its just meeting all thedierent people. Te rst couple
o weeks I hung out with theinternational students and got toknow them and then aer that Imet a ew American people andsince then Ive been closer tothem. Im in a raternity, whichis kind o cool, and doing all theevents and everything has beenamazing. I think Lawrence is myavorite part o Kansas becauseits very liberal and you can beyoursel. Everyones really riendlyand its homey here.
HOW HAS YOUR EXPERIENCE ABROAD
MADE YOUR JAYHAWK EXPERIENCE
UNIQUE?
Studying abroad is denitelysomething Ive always wanted todo, and its met my expectations.
I think Ive grown so much asa person and its so rewarding.When I le home I was moreo a boy, but I know how to beindependent now and my parentsdont really worry about me likethey did a year ago. I know how todo things on my own to get by andget around the country. You haveto learn how to be street smart andbook smart. I you dont do this,youre not going to pick it up untillater in your lie, like in your job.Its good to do this when youre inschool and young, and I think itssomething thats really enrichedme.

STUDENT
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO LIVE
ABROAD THIS SUMMER, AND WHAT
WERE YOU DOING WHILE THERE?
I am a global and international
studies major and a Spanishmajor. I have always beeneager to learn about dierentsocieties histories and
cultures. I chose to travel toEurope because I wanted tolearn more about the EU.While in Seville, Spain, I
took two summer classesand traveled on weekendsthroughout Spain and Portugalwith my group. At the end o
my trip I had the opportunityto travel to London to meetup with some o my amilymembers or the rst time,
which was a blast!
WHAT DID YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT
SPAIN AND YOUR DAY-TO-DAY
LIFE THERE, AND HOW WAS IT
DIFFERENT FROM LIVING IN
LAWRENCE?
In Seville, I absolutely loved
having a big lunch every daywhere the entire amily camehome or amily time andeven played cards sometimes.
Te gastronomy o Spainis so unique; I recommendeveryone try it someday. Butmy avorite experiences inSeville were the times my
roommate and I would go tothe market, or swimming, or
just out and about with ourhost mom, Josea. She was so
caring and taught us so muchabout the daily lie and thehistory o Andalusia. In Seville,everyone would be out and
about until early in the AM,just catching up with riends,dancing or going to the bullghts. During the heat o the
day, I was always surprised
to see older olks with theircanes walking all over theplace and hardly breaking a
sweat. People mainly walkedor took the tram. Te paceo lie is dierent than it ishere in Lawrence because not
everything is rushed. Teyare very heartelt people therewho are very proud o theirimmaculate city and all its
historic landmarks.WHAT DID YOU MISS MOST ABOUT
AND WHAT MADE YOU MOST GLAD
TO BE BACK?
Really, I still miss Spain a lot. Itwas a good t or me. However,I like having more space herein my Lawrence apartmentbecause our home-stay was
very quaint. Also, I just likebeing able to communicatewith my amily and riends,because we are in the same
time zone.DO YOU HAVE FUTURE PLANS TO
TRAVEL OR LIVE ABROAD?
As o right now, I plan to returnto Spain over Christmas break.Also, I am hoping to spendthree weeks in Jerusalem
during the summer o 2014
with my church. It would bemy dream to have a job thatallows me to travel abroad. I
will just have to see what theuture has in store or me.
STUDENT
WHERE DID YOU STUDY ABROAD
AND DURING WHAT YEAR OF
COLLEGE?
I studied abroad this pastsummer or eight weeks inFlorence, Italy. I only studiedthe Italian language andculture (this was the summerbeore my junior year).
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE MEMORY
OF YOUR EXPERIENCE?
My avorite memory ostudying abroad was travelingto all o the dierent places inItaly and visiting London! I
went to Venice, Rome, Chianti,Naples, Sorento, Alma Coast,Cinque erre, and ermoli toname a ew. It was an incredibleexperience lled with littlesleep, indescribable views andbreathtaking sunsets, alongwith lots o wine and cheese.
WHAT DID YOU LEARN BY
STUDYING ABROAD?
While studying abroad Ilearned more about mysel.For example, I eel as thoughI can navigate any type otransportation, anywhere in thecountry. In Florence I walkedmost places, and ventured totake the city bus a ew times.We traveled by bus and by train
almost every weekend. And ocourse we few to London. Notonly that, but I eel as though Ican conquer any metro systemanywhere aer taking on theLondon ube rails. Tose canbe very conusing and scary,but I managed just ne.
I nally realized how muchI love America. We take somany things or granted thatI was missing and wish I hadin mid-July. Some o thesethings include ree waterin restaurants, as well asbeing able to drive a car. Inrestaurants you must pay todrink water, and it is about3.50 Euro, which is close to $5.
So I just ordered wine becauseit was usually the same price,i not cheaper. I missed beingable to drive everywhere andbe in control o when and atwhat time I showed up to aspecic event or location. Wetake that privilege or grantedliving here and basicallydriving everywhere, every day.I really missed that.

WHERE DID YOU GO ABROAD, ANDWHAT WERE YOU DOING WHILE
THERE?
I studied at the Universityo Costa Rica in San Jos ora semester or two primaryreasons. First, I had taken Spanishclasses at KU, which made meinterested in the language, and Ihad some [people] in my amilywho told me that to learn tospeak it you have to go live in aoreign country. I had also livedin Lawrence my whole lie, and,even though I love it, I wanted anew experience on my own.
WHAT DID YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT
COSTA RICA, AND HOW WAS IT
DIFFERENT FROM LIVING IN
LAWRENCE?Te eel around campus was verydierent. Its more o a socialplace in Costa Rica with a lot oareas designated or just hangingout. People do that on campushere, but not on the same level.It seemed like people would stayon campus or extra time justto hang out with riends. Also,class length was dierent as eachclass typically met once a weekor three to ve hours. And ocourse taking class in a dierentlanguage was difcult, but I had
very positive teachers who werewilling to help.

STUDENTATHLETIC ACTIVITY: ennis team
WHAT ARE YOU STUDYING AT KU?
Strategic Communications.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO BECOME A
JAYHAWK?
It was my dream since 15 yearsold to study in the U.S.A. and play
tennis or a college team. I thinkthat the University o Kansas is
a great place to combine botheducational and athletic parts at a
good level.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT THE USA?
I like the atmosphere here, how
people are ready to help eachother. Probably the thing I like
most so ar is how important
and serious everything is about
athletics. Being a student-athletehere and in Latvia are two totally
diferent things. Teres no such
thing as college sports [in Latvia].
DO YOU THINK LIVING ABROAD
IMPACTED YOUR FUTURE PLANS?
I still havent decided...whether
I want to stay here or move back
to Europe, but I think that living
abroad now is quite benecial or
me in order to understand whatexactly I want to do in my uture
lie.
DO YOU THINK LIVING ABROAD MAKES
YOUR JAYHAWK EXPERIENCE UNIQUE?
As [ar] I know, there are a lot o
international athletes in KU, butbeing rom Latvia makes it moreunique maybe.
STUDENT
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO COME TO
KU?
KU is a "partner university"
o the University o Stuttgart.
Within these partner universities
in the US, I wanted to choose aUniversity with a good reputation
in Computer Science and I
wanted to visit a part o the US
which isnt that well known rommovies or V series.
SO FAR, WHAT HAS BEEN YOURFAVORITE PART ABOUT KU/KANSAS?
KUs campus is really beautiul,
and Kansas City and Lawrence
are really nice towns.
WHAT ABOUT YOUR JAYHAWK
EXPERIENCE IS UNIQUE COMPARED
TO YOUR OTHER UNIVERSITY?
One o the main diferences here
compared to the student lie inGermany is that the students and
the University seem to be much
more related. Te students show
much more o their connection to
the University, which makes youeel that you are a part o it as a
whole.
IF YOU HAD THE CHANCE, WOULD YOUCOME BACK TO KANSAS AFTER YOUR
STUDY ABROAD EXPERIENCE IS OVER?
So ar I like Kansas and Lawrence
very much. Te people are veryriendly and helpul.
STUDENTWHY DID YOU CHOOSE KU?
I picked ve diferent schools to
do my study abroad/exchange
program. KU was one o them,and my home university picked
KU or me.
WHAT IS YOUR MAJOR AND WHAT DO
YOU PLAN TO DO AFTER YOUR TIME
AT KU?
Sports science. I want to do
sports management so Ill go toa graduate school with a sports
management program.

KANSAN.COM
STUDENTWHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO COME
TO KU?
For my course you have to
go abroad and I wanted a bigcollege town, so KU t the
description quite well.
SO FAR, WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR
FAVORITE PART ABOUT KU/
KANSAS?
Te social aspect is my
avorite. Ive met a lot opeople and since its such a big
campus theres always so much
going on.
HOW HAS YOUR EXPERIENCE
ABROAD MADE YOUR JAYHAWK
EXPERIENCE UNIQUE?
I guess because it was such
a big move and the whole
university system is diferent,
so Id say the culture shock obeing here is pretty unique.
IF YOU HAD THE CHANCE, WOULD
YOU COME BACK TO KANSAS AFTER
YOUR STUDY ABROAD EXPERIENCE
IS OVER?
I denitely want to come back
to KU to visit. So ar Im reallyenjoying it.

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSANPAGE 14
As homecoming nears, organi-zations on campus prepare their
chalk murals and parade foats.
Most upperclassmen are used
to the hustle and bustle o thepre-homecoming events, but resh-
men can get lost in the whirlwind
o college tradition. It may lead
them to ask: what exactly is home-coming?
I dont really know what to
expect rom homecoming, said
Brandon omas, a reshman romWichita. I didnt even know there
was one. I guess I expect ood and
dancing and some kind o enter-
tainment.
Another reshman, Sanjay
Parashar rom Overland Park,also isnt sure exactly what e vents
homecoming week will hold.
Is there a dance? Parashar
asked. Is there homecoming roy-alty? Ive actually been to a couple
homecoming games in Arkansas,
so I kind o know the ootball
aspect o it. Im excited to see thestudent perspective.
For those who have not experi-
enced a college homecoming, its
a common misconception thattheres a traditional dance like in
many high schools.
When I was a reshman, I didn't
really know what it was going to
be, said Emily Poppe, a senior
rom Omaha, Neb. I didn't under-stand the magnitude o the whole
week. When I participated in the
parade and saw all o the events
they did throughout the week, Iwas blown away and realized I
wasn't in high school anymore.
Sierra Franklin, a senior rom
Wichita, agreed with Poppe. Shesaid she hadnt had any idea what
she was getting into during her
rst University homecoming, but
she wished she had been moreinvolved during her reshman year.
My advice would be to just enjoy
it, Franklin said. I you happen to
meet alums during the weekend,
embrace them and gain some o
their knowledge and experiencebecause they've been in our spots
as students beore and they have a
little insight o what lie is like aer
the hill.But just a tip, don't walk on the
chalk n' rock murals unless you
want a bunch o people glaring at
you. People are serious about theirchalking. Other than that, just
have un and nd all o the reasons
why you love this university.
