About 200 high schooland middle school studentsfrom northeastern Coloradogathered in Ross HallSaturday for the NationalHistory Day RegionalCompetition.
Displays ranged from thehistory of the radio to thefeminist movement, and stu-dents covered all aspects ofhistory, from current eventsto ancient times.
National History Day wasdesigned to enhance theteaching of history for sixth –12th grade students.
“The goal of the event is tocelebrate history as a disci-pline where students can be
actively engaged in what theyare learning,” said CyrusFernandez, a UNC graduatestudent and competitionjudge.
The participating stu-dents are part of a yearlongeducation program in whichthey must research a historictopic of their choice thatrelates to the designatedtheme.
Students were required topresent their findingsthrough dramatic perform-ances, imaginative exhibits,multimedia documentaries,interactive web sites orresearch papers.
This year’s theme was“Revolution, Reaction,Reform in History,” and thepresentations reflected the
theme. Students chose topicssuch as the Civil RightsMovement, the BritishInvasion, the ColumbineMassacre and even the HarryPotter phenomenon.
There were also perform-ances that were open to thepublic, such as “Revolutionariesin Bloomers: Women Workingfor Suffrage, ” while other stu-dents chose to present docu-mentaries or create websites.
Presenters were in the firststep of the National HistoryDay competition and thewinners from each categoryadvance to the state competi-tion. If they win the statecompetition, they will be eli-gible to compete nationally.
The event brought togeth-er middle and high school
students as well as secondaryeducators, college studentsand college professors.
Many UNC graduate stu-dents and faculty were judgesat the event; other judgescame from other institutionsin northern Colorado, includ-ing Colorado State Universityand local high schools.

It is a well-known fact thatwomen are a minority in motor-sports, and it could be arguedthat any woman who bringsattention to the fact that womenrace would be a good face for thefemales in the sport.Unfortunately, this isn’t the case.
Danica Patrick is one of themost famous female racers onany circuit, mainly because she isracing in one of the most popularmotorsports in America,NASCAR. However, just becauseshe is the most popular doesn’t
mean she is the most talentedand should be the face of femi-ninity in the racing world.
Since she started her profes-sional racing career in 2005, shehas only won one race, and thatwas nearly four years ago in theIZOD Indycar Series. Patrick isbetter known for being innumerous suggestive GoDaddycommercials and posing in lin-gerie and bikinis on classic carsthan she is known for her successon the track.
While Patrick may attract
male fans of the sport, she doesnothing for women in motor-sports besides further objectifythem. In no way should she be arole model for young female rac-ing fans, which is one of the waysto get more women involved inthe sport.
Plenty of women win races,and they should be the onesmaking the sports recaps on thenews.
Take for example AshleyForce, who has won ninenational events since taking the
wheel in 2004. In 2011, she took a break from
her racing career to start a familyand was named president ofJohn Force Entertainment. Sinceshe began her career at 21, themost provocative outfit she hasworn for a photo shoot is a tanktop and jeans, but she is usuallyfully covered in a firesuit.
For women to be taken seri-ously in sports, they must have astrong, positive representativewho can actually win. Patrick isnone of the above.
Women in motorsports need more positive mode than Patrick
Recently, high schoolstudent Katy Butlerbegan a plea on
Change.org for the MotionPicture Association of Americato reverse their R-rated rulingon the upcoming documentary“Bully,” scheduled for releaseMarch 30, and instead grant thefilm a PG-13 rating.
The premise of “Bully” is self-explanatory. The MPAA recentlyrated the picture R due to perva-sive violent language and darkthemes and denied an appeal bythe Weinstein Company, thefilm’s domestic distributor.
Butler asserts that the R ratingwill prevent “Bully” from beingviewed by its intended audience.
While her intentions are nobleand “Bully” is sure to be anenlightening film (although thedistributors are being dishonestby advertising the film as “not yetrated”), the MPAA’s R rating isappropriate.
Having a good message doesnot necessitate changing a rating.R ratings are based on whetherthe following exists, according tothe MPAA: “Adult themes, adultactivity, hard language, intense orpersistent violence, sexually-ori-ented nudity, drug abuse or otherelements.”
That’s the standard thatMPAA-rated films are judged on.Standards shouldn’t be changedjust because we wish to reach adifferent audience. That degradesthe purpose of defined standards.
In addition, “Bully,” whilecontaining good themes, couldactually be damaging to somewho view it because of its inclu-sion of suicide.
Suicide and bullying havebeen linked in the media, andwhen several gay people commit-ted suicide in the fall of 2010allegedly due to bullying, numer-ous organizations sprang up tocombat bullying.
Recently, however, organiza-tions are confessing that mediahype and portrayal of suicide aredeeply damaging and may actual-ly encourage young people tocommit suicide.
David McFarland, executivedirector and CEO of the TrevorProject, a suicide-preventionorganization, has stated thatshowcasing the suicides of vic-tims of bullying “has alsoincreased suicide risk.”
McFarland said media por-trayal of suicide “can influencesomeone who is at-risk to assumethat taking your own life is whatyou’re supposed to do next if youare LGBT or bullied.”
In other words, the attention
that people receive from suicidemay be something that others areseeking.
With this in mind, allowingunfettered access to the movie“Bully,” which deals with theextremely dark theme of suicide,could have a tremendously nega-tive effect on many people.
Dr. Nicholas Christakis in hisbook “Connected” points toresearch that shows that youngpeople are most vulnerable to thecontagious effects of suicide. TheR rating regulates the viewershipof many of these young peopleand gives parents the responsibil-ity of deciding whether their chil-dren are able to handle “Bully,”minimizing the number of peoplewho could be harmed by the con-tagious aspect of suicide fromviewing the material.

Every 34 seconds, a per-son in the United States diesof heart disease.
Most of these peopleacquired the disease frompreventable causes, such aslack of exercise and diet. Since1900, heart disease was theUnited States’ leading causeof death each year, except in1918 when it was cardio vas-cular disease, according to
the Northern ColoradoMedical Center.
What if these individualschanged just one thing abouttheir lifestyle and were able tolive longer with a healthierheart?
The NCMC Spirit ofWomen program hosted the“Day of Dance” Saturday atthe Greeley Family Funplexto help promote healthylifestyles through exerciseand dance, and several UNCteams showed off their
moves to promote health.Dancing is known for its
strenuous movements andskillful technique. It’s a com-mon myth that you have tostudy dance to be a dancer.It’s not a common workoutmethod for the general pub-lic, but once it’s attempted, itcan be more fun for somepeople than running on atreadmill.
The purpose of the annual“Day of Dance” is not only topromote dancing in Greeley,but also to inform individualsabout the importance ofheart health and physicalactivity. Hundreds of localsattended the event, coming tocheck out the fun and leavingwith more knowledge abouttheir bodies and most likelystill sweating from participat-ing in Zumba.
For the past three years,the NCMC Spirit of Womenprogram has hosted the “Dayof Dance.” The event givescommunity members theopportunity to watch danceperformances, participate inactivities and learn about theimportance of fitness forheart health. Dancing is pro-moted at the event as a fun
way to workout, lose weightand make the heart healthy.
“It’s free for all membersof the community,” said KrisHoward, the manager forFamily Life Education andSpirit of Women. “It’s a greatday of fun.”
Red, black and gold bal-loons filled the Funplex gym-nasium as health experts wereon hand to answer questions.The tables were set up for peo-ple to “Ask the Docs” aboutissues regarding OB/GYN,pediatrics, family medicine,internal medicine, sportsmedicine and orthopedics.
This was an opportunityfor performers and spectatorsto walk around and find waysthe body is affected by poorhealth and how dancing andphysical activity can help getone’s health on the right track.Along with help from experts,appearances from Universityof Northern Colorado sportsteams helped get the crowdinvolved and proved that evenathletes can have fun dancing.
“It’s about keeping yourheart healthy,” said ElaineKercher, a volunteer for Spiritof Women.
Not only was the event’s
focus to educate communitymembers and students onhow to maintain healthylifestyles, there were perform-ances from dance groupsaround Greeley and musicand cheering filled the air ofthe gymnasium during theentire event.
The Colorado DanceCollective, The Conservatory,UNC Dance Alliance andDance Fusion were just a fewgroups that performed duringthe event.
A particular performanceby the Dancin’ Divas provid-ed the audience with proofthat dancing is possible nomatter the age.
The Divas are a tap danc-ing group of women olderthan 40. The performancesshowed how much fun danc-
ing can be, no matter the size,age or skill level.
Along with performancesfrom Greeley dance groups,there were also differentshowcases, like ZumbaFitness, line dancing and“Moving Mantra” yoga, inwhich audience memberswere able to come to the stageand participate for a quickworkout.
Dance instructors whoattended admitted to lov-ing the event because itbrings all different north-ern Colorado dance stylestogether.
As long as one person whoattended the event becomesmotivated enough toimprove their hearts’ health,the event is considered a suc-cess, said organizers.

‘Day of Dance’ helps keep community ‘heart healthy’
MELANIE VASQUEZ | THE MIRROR
Juniors Cathleen Costigan, left, a biology major, and KatherineAhl, an elementary education major, members of the ColoradoDance Collective, perform at the Day of Dance fair Saturday.
For a 24-hour span,Lindou Auditorium was filledwith Illuminerdy membersand UNC gamers dedicatedto raising money for Child’sPlay, a charity that providestoys and video games for chil-dren’s hospitals around theworld.
Child’s Play is a charity
that works with the videogame industry and chil-dren’s hospitals to collectdonations and grantwishes by buying mer-chandise for the hospi-tals. Children’s hospitalsaround the country haveAmazon wish lists of dif-ferent video games orconsoles that are fulfilledby Child’s Play.
The children’s hospitals
aim to keep a child’s mind offtheir disease through differ-ent entertainment media.
Students brought theirown TVs and consoles to playthe video games of theirchoice. Consoles ranged fromhandhelds to Wiis, Xbox 360sand Playstation 3s to oldersystems like Super NintendoEntertainment System andcomputers.
“I had a lot of fun and I feellike we’re doing a goodthing,” said Matt Hall, a juniorEnglish major.
About 15 people attendedthe gaming fundraiser, butbetween the fundraiser andthe online donations, the clubhas raised $725 so far.
“I’m not really a gamerbut I came here to support,”said Estrella Romero, a soph-omore theater studies major.“I’ve been here the full 24hours.”
One of the members even
reached out to local business-es to donate food for thegamers so they wouldn’t gohungry during the long gam-ing session.
The Illuminerdy, a “nerd”club at the University ofNorthern Colorado, wasthought up in a joking way.
Clark Lamson,Illuminerdy co-founder, washosting a Magic card gamenight in Turner Hall when hisbrother suggested they cre-ate a “nerd” club. Lamsoninitially shrugged the idea offbut a few days later decided,with a couple of friends, thatit would be a good idea afterall. With the help of JamesKeaton, a professor of com-munication studies, theIlluminerdy was formed.
“We’re normally smallerscale, but this semester wewanted to do something big,”said Lamson, a senior com-munication studies major.
“We wanted to use our nerdi-ness to give back. We could-n’t pass that up.”
At the beginning,Illuminerdy was meant tobe a mere hangout fornerds. It was no morethan a place to talk aboutnerdy things and playvideo games. But lately,they’ve been trying towork on the club’s corevalues and start givingback to the community.
Originally, the club want-ed to support an organizationthat helps kids struggling withbullying in their schools, butcouldn’t find a charity that feltright.
That’s when club memberHeather Winzent brought theidea of Child’s Play to thetable. Lamson said he and the
other club members wantedto do something now ratherthan wait until the perfectcharity came along.
Lamson said the clubworked hard to spread theword about the fundraiser.They asked their professors tomention it in classes, askednursing students for help, putup signs, utilized UNCStudent Radio and got intouch with online sources,such as video bloggers in the“nerd” community. They alsoset up an account on Fundlyso people outside of the UNCcommunity could donate.
People interested indonating can visit www.fund-ly.com/theilluminerdy. Noaccount is required to donate.Donations will be acceptedthrough Friday.

Open house recruits potential Honors studentsSAVANNAH MCCULLY
The members of the UNCwomen’s basketball programsaid all last week they neededto be the hot team at the righttime heading into the confer-ence tournament.
Now winners of fivestraight after defeatingPortland State at homeSaturday, that’s exactly whatthey are.
On a night meant tohonor the seniors, theUniversity of NorthernColorado (19-10, 11-5 Big Sky)got an entire team effort in a65-50 victory at Butler-Hancock Sports Pavilion, awin that gives UNC the No. 2seed in the Big SkyConference Championshiptournament, which startsThursday in Pocatello, Idahoon the campus of Idaho StateUniversity.
The Bears now have thelongest win streak headinginto the tournament, thanksin large part to having fourplayers score in double fig-
ures, led by junior forwardLauren Oosdyke with 18points.
“I felt we played togetheras a team really, really well,”Oosdyke said. “We were hav-ing a lot of fun, everyone hada positive attitude, we had agreat crowd, everyone wasdoing well. We had a lot offun. We did it for our seniors.”
The seniors, forwardKaisha Brown and guard AmyMarin, playing in the finalhome game of their careers,started together in the samegame for the first time thisseason. Sophomore guardD’shara Strange, the regularstarting point guard, went tohead coach Jaime White priorto the game and asked thatMarin start in her place.
“That just shows whattype of team we are, that weall love each other,” Brownsaid. “We’re each other’s bestfriends, and I have so muchrespect for her for doing that.”
Brown scored 10 pointsand Marin went scoreless butgrabbed four rebounds andhad three assists. Strange
scored 16 points in her firstgame of the season comingoff the bench and sophomoreforward Kim Lockridge added10 points and eight rebounds.
Brown missed her firstcouple shots but got on theboard with a 3-pointer fiveminutes into the game.
“I wasn’t too nervous, Ijust didn’t have any shotsfalling, but that didn’t matterand we came out and playedgreat team defense andplayed a great team game allaround and it ended the waywe needed it to,” Brown said.
Oosdyke scored nineof UNC’s first 14 points asthe Bears opened up a 10-point lead in the firstseven minutes.
Oosdyke scored 12 in thehalf, and UNC had a 32-20advantage at halftime. TheBears held the Vikings to 25.8percent shooting in the first20 minutes.
“The first half wasexcellent,” White said. “Ithought we did a great jobof taking care of and dis-tributing the ball.”
The Bears extendedtheir lead to as many as 19in the second half, continu-ing their hot streak andcruising to the No. 2 seed,eliminating Portland Statefrom tournament con-tention in the process.
“I think we’ve peaked atthe right time so far,”Oosdyke said. “We’ve hadsome games, we’ve had somesetbacks, but overall we’regetting more and more solidevery game.”
UNC now has to waituntil Thursday night tolearn which team it plays.The 3-6 seeds play in thequarterfinals Thursday,and the Bears play thehighest remaining seed at5 p.m. Friday while top-seeded Idaho State playsthe lowest remaining seedat 7:30 p.m. The winners ofthe semifinal games thenplay at 7:30 p.m. Saturdayto determine which teamreceives the Big Sky’s auto-matic berth into the NCAATournament.
“Getting a bye is huge
for us because we get towatch the other teamsand see what their ten-dencies have been or ifthey changed anythingsince we played them andreally getting to scoutthem well and have thatday off to really recuper-ate and come off and wintwo games and hopefullygo to the NCAAs,”Oosdyke said.
Brown said the uncer-
tainty of opponent at thispoint won’t change howthe team prepares beforeit departs for the tourna-ment.
“I think it’s justpreparing like we do forevery other game: workon ourselves at the begin-ning of the week andtoward the end of theweek start preparing forwhoever we’re going toplay,” she said.
