White, yellow, red, blue,purple, black — the shirts hang-ing from the University Centerwalkway represent more than adisplay of rainbow colors; theyare memories and memorialsdedicated to the survivors andvictims of abuse.
Each color signifies the dif-ferent forms of abuse, and thehand-painted T-shirts are deco-rated by UNC students as partof The Clothesline Project, anevent hosted by the AssaultSurvivors Advocacy Programduring SAFE week.
Throughout the day, somestudents hurriedly cruise by the
display, too rushed to pay a sec-ond thought to the message.Others shuffled by, casting curi-ous glances by not expressing
interest further than a lingeringpause. Still, others stopped totake a break and make some art,using paint and markers toexpress their support or eventheir pain.
“Art is something that cre-ates a connection between thetheoretical and the concrete,”said Morgan Vick, a freshmantheater studies major, as shedips her brush into fabric paint.“Survivors have a hard timeexpressing their pain and heal-ing. I think art expresses thatfor them.”

On Sept. 24, 2008, UNCPresident Kay Norton and mem-bers of the Colorado GeneralAssembly announced plans todevelop the Education InnovationInstitute. This year, these plansare being put into action.
In essence, this new instituteis geared toward funding andconducting applied research tosolve diverse problems of educa-
tional settings in elementaryschools, colleges and universities.The institute’s researchers, amyriad of professors from variousacademic departments on cam-pus, will collaborate with schooldistricts, philanthropic organiza-tions, businesses, and local andstate governments to create inno-vative solutions to the obstaclesthe education system faces.
The institute is built around alogic model, which is based onthree tracks: program, organiza-
tion and research development.All three tracks are concernedwith targets and outcomes of the
educational research. Additionally, it will provide
Colorado policymakers with theinformation they need to createlegislation to improve schools.
Since its founding in 1889,the University of NorthernColorado has prided itself inbeing a national leader in thefield of education. Therefore,the Education InnovationInstitute is an extension of theuniversity’s mission to provideaction-oriented education.
“The new institute’s goalsare rooted in our historical mis-sion — we are answering theneed for change in education,”said Nate Haas, UNC’s directorof media relations.
The institute is seeking itsfounding director.
“We’ve just recently openedthe search, but it is nation-wide,” Haas said.
Haas said the universityplans to name a director some-time during the spring semester.
The College of Natural andHealth Science’s interim dean,Robbyn Wacker, is the head ofthe search committee.
According to the university’sjob posting for the position, aprospective director must be anenergetic and entrepreneurialperson who can work withexternal organization in orderto create alliances and raisefunds.

The United StatesPostal Service lost $6billion in the 2010 fis-
cal year, following a $3.8 billionloss in the previous year and a$2.8 billion loss in 2008. Thebusiness has over $10 billion ofdebt in addition.
Simultaneously, the cost ofpostage has risen twice as muchas the nation’s total inflation.The trend is devastating butunsurprising. The USPS wasfounded with an eye towardfree flow of informationbetween citizens, as courageousa cause as any, but free the flow
is not. Items of paper mail, thatis to say letters and businessdocuments, are more easilyexchanged via e-mail. Personaland business packages aremore conveniently sent throughFedEx or UPS, and less expen-sive, too. Next September, theUSPS will owe $5.5 billion in analready-deferred payment. Themoney isn’t there, and the busi-ness will either collapse or besaved by taxpayers.
And a business it is, not agovernment agency. WilliamHenderson, the former post-master general, wrote, “For allintents and purposes, the U.S.Postal Service is already a cor-poration.” Like a corporationor private business, it can buyand sell property, enter intoprivate contracts, and manageall its own property.
Unlike a typical business,
the Postal Service borrowsmoney at discounted rates andpays no federal taxes. In fact,the business is still supportedby tax money. And unlike atypical business in our freemarket, when it falters, it does-n’t downsize or cut prices tobetter compete. The PostalService, one of the nation’slargest employers, has neverhad a single round of layoffs.Instead, it raises the price ofstamps, just as it has since itsbeginning. But this year, thePostal Regulatory Commissiontook the proposal for anincrease of 2 cents on the priceof a letter, and sent it backwith a big “no” stamp. That’sdisappointing news for theUSPS, but magic for thousandsof small business owners andtheir employees.
In response to the PRC rul-
ing, Postmaster General John E.Potter wrote, “Clearly, thePostal Service is a viable busi-ness. Maintaining that statusrequires elimination of severallegislatively imposed con-straints that hamper our abilityto operate efficiently and prof-itably.”
I’ll do you one better, Potter.Privatize the Postal Service. Letus see the corporation fend forits self. Have our federal govern-ment allow competition in firstclass mail, and force the entiremail industry to lower pricesand cut costs. Either that, orwatch the government scrambleto save an industry that’s burn-ing to the ground before oureyes. Wouldn’t that be some-thing to write home about?

Iam a zealot. No, I’m not amember of a politicalorganization urging the
Jews to rebel against the Romans,and I certainly don’t condone theuse of unjust force to accomplishan agenda. But speaking on theterms of my fervor, I am a zealousperson.
This week, Bear Catholic hastaken on the monumental task ofbringing several pro-life speakersto campus, but this is not a cele-bration. While the pro-life move-ment exists, there is nothing to cel-ebrate, for the very existence of the
movement shows the movement’sfailure in achieving complete suc-cess so far.
It’s easy to trivialize issues. Eventhe poorest of Americans have con-tinual access to food, so it’s not dif-ficult to ignore global poverty,which kills six million childreneach year. It’s also easy to playdown breast cancer when one hasnot been afflicted by it or personal-ly know somebody who has.
It’s also easy to dismiss theactions and beliefs of pro-lifers asoverly zealous and radical, but thatbelief stems from the viewpointthat abortion is an issue of civil lib-erty. What these people don’t see isthat — for the pro-lifers — it’s notan issue about “rights,” just onereally specific, essential right: theright to life.
The reason we are zealous isbecause we believe pre-born
humans have had their inalienableright to life stripped from them.
It is because of this that peoplesacrifice their time and money vol-unteering for pregnancy centers.Contrary to abortion mills, whichexist for profit, pregnancy resourcecenters are staffed primarily by vol-unteers. Once one recognizes abor-tion for what it is — the destructionof a living human, which societynever condones in any other cir-cumstance outside of the womb —perspective changes, and one isobligated to challenge abortion.
It takes extreme dedication todo what the pro-life movementdoes. In about seven years,Operation Rescue amassed around70,000 arrests for peaceful interac-tion. Most of those people werearrested simply for sitting down inpeaceful protest. While those infavor of abortion continue to make
money off of the lucrative business,pro-lifers travel thousands of milesjust to hold a sign, and they con-stantly risk their jobs and sacrificetheir income to do so.
This is because the convictionthat all humans deserve rights andrespect is a strong one, and under-standing this conviction is key tounderstanding why pro-lifers areindeed zealous people.
There are several speakers linedup this week, and I encourage allstudents to go listen to them. I’mnot asking anybody to change hisor her mind, I’m simply requestingthat people attend the events in theinterest of gaining insight to deter-mine why these people do whatthey do, whether one approves ofthe movement or not.

Staying physically fit is animportant part of a healthylifestyle, but it may be neglectedduring the strenuous times ofcollege. To help students assesstheir physical status, UNC’sCampus Recreation Center has aseries of workshops available.
The CRC hosted its monthlyfree body composition testMonday, attracting 30 students.Participants had the opportunityfor personal trainers from CRC togather their height and weightmeasurements to calculate theirbody mass index, as well as takethe three-fold skin test with skinfold calibers. The body composi-tion tests compare lean bodymass to fat mass.
The free body compositiontesting is offered to students5:30-7:30 p.m. the first Monday
of every month. Students cansign up for the free body compo-sition tests at the front desk ofthe CRC the night of the event.
Jessica Grand, a senior sportand exercise science major, isone of the physical trainers whoconducts the body compositiontests.
“Events like this get the nameof the CRC out and show what itcan provide to students,” Grandsaid. “It is also good for the stu-dents because then they can seewhere they are at health wise, andit helps them to make goals thatthey can start working toward.”
Emily Davis, a freshmanvocal music major, was one ofthe students who participatedin the event.
“I think that it is a good oppor-tunity for people to see where theyare at and how they are doing,physically,” Davis said “It is impor-tant for people to be healthy, and it
is definitely going to show how fitthey are.”
Brittani Vernard, a sopho-more elementary educationmajor, also participated in thefree body composition event.
“The free body compositiontesting was very convenient,”Vernard said. “I was alreadyhere, so I thought that it wouldbe something that was fun todo.”
Students who are interested inthe body composition test but areunable to make it to the event, canmake an appointment at the frontdesk of the CRC.
Students can also sign up forthe same physical fitness teststhe physical trainers give totheir trainees. These physicalfitness tests measure height,weight and physical fitness byusing cardio tests and measur-ing how many push-ups andsit-ups a participant can do.

Slams, emotions stir Open Mic Night crowdJOANNA LANGSTON
a r t s @ u n c m i r r o r . c o m
As if bi-monthly Open MicNights weren’t enough, theUniversity Program Council host-
ed a poetry slam night Monday,featuring artist Isis Speaks. Isis, aNew Jersey native and a NationalPoetry Slam Champion, rockedthe stage with several of her soulstirring narratives. The poems
were often started in her jazzilysmooth vocal melodies, beforeerupting into a torrent of tongue-twisting verses on the topics oflife, love, strife and self-actualiza-tion.
Professing her excitement tobe performing again, she said, “Ikind of took a hiatus from the micfor awhile. I’ve been doing theaterfor a minute, which is cool, but Ihaven’t done a slam in awhile. Sothanks for having me. You can’tget a better job than this in theworld, swear to God.”
Although Open Mic Nightsusually hum with a tangible buzzof artistic energy, Monday’s talentwas unevenly clustered into ahandful of students and other par-ticipants were less than stunning.
Simply put, slam poetry is anopportunity to allow one’s moltenhot fury of passion that burblesinside to gurgle up from the chest,erupt from the mouth and let the
full force of feverish declarationsbe slammed onto the audience’sconsciousness. A few participantswere able to perform their pieceswith the poem’s original emotion-al value, but many were tepid, atbest. Poems were read cold off apaper, and then quickly aban-doned by the poet, who slunk offstage before polite applause hadbegun.
Isis was quick to address theaudience on this: “I just want tosay, I’ve heard a couple peopletonight say, ‘Oh, I’m not really thatdepressed, I just wrote that.’ Youdon’t have to put a disclaimer onthat. I want you to know that evenif you are that depressed, this is aplace where you can come to heal.That’s why mic’s are open.”
Judges amidst the audienceranked people on white boards,and five with the highest scoreswere invited to perform again, ofwhich three walked away with gift
certificate prizes. JasminePoythress was the night’s big win-ner, her poems standing outamong her peers’ as much as hervivid yellow shirt.
Uchenna Ohaya, a freshmanpsychology major, and poetryslam finalist, amused the crowdwith a piece titled A-S-S.
“You’re either covering it,laughing it off, kicking it, kissing it,or trying to get a piece of it.”
It was witty, funny and a defi-nite crowd pleaser. Ohaya is nostranger to the stage.
“I performed a lot in my past,in my high school,” she said. “Wehad a Poetry Café once a month.”
The event left many studentshopeful for the next possible slam.
“It’s really cool to see peopleshare with other students, andpaint a picture of their emotions,”said Ashley Wilson, a junior psy-chology major. “I’d definitely liketo go to another one.”
Contentious topics creates jubilent cackles among audienceJESSICA GATES
a r t s @ u n c m i r r o r . c o m
The improv comedy groupCorduroy struck again with wittyacting and smart one-liners. TheSunday night crowd in LindouAuditorium was vocal in theirapproval, laughing throughout theentire show.
The night, displayed the always-contentious topics of alcohol, drugsand dirty sex jokes on stage in anunapologetic format that proved tobe a crowd-pleasing attitude. Thetroupe addressed everything from afirst night in prison to ball-kickinginsurance.
One such act was a take on theclassic British story of Jack theRipper, this time filled with a gullible
orphan and plenty of dirty tricks andjokes to go around. The characterposing to be Jack, played by JasonClark, advised the orphan, played byDavid Kelly, on the rules of thestreets including smoking, killing,making money and staying fed. Alllessons were taught in non conven-tional ways, of course, including acoercion of dog-poop eating, whichaudience members could only hopewas fake.
One adlib act resonated particu-larly well with the crowd ofColoradan college students. Castmembers acted out random wordstaken from the audience in Mad-Libstyle and the setting for all theimprovised acting turned out to beCasa Bonita. The troupe memberscapitalized on the notoriously
known Colorado tourist hotspot,depicting everything from hot cliffdivers, Black Bart’s un-scary cave,irresistible sopapillas and boringarcade games.
The musical guest showcasedSunday was Harrison Garcia whoplayed some original and coversongs on acoustic guitar. One duetwith his friend and cast member,Mark Maxwell, was particularlyentertaining. Halfway through thesong, forgotten words added a com-ical element. Garcia improvised hiswords singing, “You know, this hap-pened every gig we played.”
Garcia is a student at CU Denverand said he just came up to UNC towatch the troupe and when he wasasked to be a musical guest.
“The show was awesome.”
Garcia said. “These guys are great.People need something to do thatisn’t partying, and this is a greatevent right on UNC’s campus.”
Corduroy’s next sidesplitting
show will be a Halloween special at 9p.m. on Oct. 24 in LindouAuditorium in Michener Library.And, of course, all shows are free.

BEN WARWICKs p o r t s @ u n c m i r r o r . c o m
The UNC women’s soccer team(7-3-1) heads into conference playthis weekend, taking on the WeberState Wildcats (1-12) at 3 p.m.Thursday in Ogden, Utah, and theIdaho State Bengals (5-6-2) at 1p.m. Sunday in Pocatello, Idaho.
Since entering the Big Sky con-ference in 2006, the University ofNorthern Colorado is only 1-3against Weber State, with its onlywin coming in 2008.
Bears head coach Tim Barrera isnot letting that fact affect his teamgoing into Thursday’s contest.
“I don’t think any of that comesinto it, really,” Barrera said. “It’s adifferent team this year. Last yearwe lost 2-1 in a game we shouldhave won. The year before, we beatthem here, and that’s when theywere the top team, and they were5-0 coming in.”
Junior midfielder KimmieFeidler was honored with the BigSky Conference Offensive Playerof the Week award for the week of
Sept. 28 for her efforts againstBoise State and New MexicoState. Feidler had four shots andthree shots on goal and scored thegame-winner on a 40-yard shotwith no time left against BoiseState. She also had three shots inUNC’s overtime victory againstNew Mexico State.
The award marks Feidler’s firstcareer Player of the Week award.
“I was excited,” Feidler said. “Iwasn’t really expecting it. I think ithelped boost my confidence a littlebit and hopefully get me ready and
pumped up for conference play.” Feidler, like the rest of the team,
is also looking ahead to both WeberState and Idaho State, but said theBears are not overlooking either one.
“I think they’ve played somegood teams this year, and we stillhave to go in every game,”Feidler said.
Barrera said even thoughWeber State and Idaho State arehaving down years, the team is stilllooking forward to the challengepresented by conference play.
“Our kids know it’s going to be a
tough challenge, and I think they’reexcited for it,” he said.
Barrera also said although get-ting results from his team is themain objective this weekend, pro-ducing on the road is critical thisseason given a shortened homeschedule heading into Big Sky play.
“We gotta get some resultsthis weekend because the confer-ence season is so short,” Barrerasaid. “This is a year where wehave four away and three athome, so we have to get somepoints on the road.”

Former QB stands out for Bears defenseBEN WARWICK
s p o r t s @ u n c m i r r o r . c o m
Senior linebacker JamesSchrenk is spending his last year ina UNC jersey playing the game he’sloved since he was a kid.
Senior safety Max Hewitt said hethinks it is Schrenk’s unique style ofleadership that makes him sorespected on and off the field by allof his teammates.
“It’s not so much leading byexample and the serious kind ofleader you sometimes think aboutwith other players,” Hewitt said.“But it’s cracking jokes and keepingthe team in a light mood whenthings necessarily aren’t goinggreat; he keeps the team up andkeeps the mood light.”
Working on a master’s degreein communication, Schrenk wasintroduced to football by hisfather Gary at an early age. Hesaid he credits his father andcoaches for his love of footballwith his father still remaining hisbiggest supporter.
“He doesn’t tell me to my face
that I do well or that I do bad,”Schrenk said. “He’s pretty mellowabout it. He’s proud to see me outthere, but the coaches, (defensivecoordinator Cody) Deti and (line-backers coach Kyle) Krantz, specifi-cally do a great job as far as motivat-ing me and getting me ready to go.”
Schrenk played baseball andfootball at Northridge HighSchool in Greeley, lettering allfour years in football and threein baseball. He said while thepursuit of his master’s is impor-tant to him, playing football hasbeen a dream of his ever since hegot interested the game.
“Baseball’s fun,” Schrenk said.“I had a lot of fun playing it, but thisis where my heart’s been since I wasprobably 5, 6, 7 years old.”
Being coached in high school bya University of Northern Coloradogreat also helped fuel his love forfootball. Tom Beck, a national-championship-winning quarter-back for the Bears in 1996, coachedSchrenk in football. Schrenk wearsnumber seven, Beck’s number, as atribute to his mentor.
“In high school, my freshmanyear, he gave me seven when wewere getting jerseys the first day,”Schrenk said. “He said, ‘This isyour number because I wore it,’and so when I got here, I wantedto wear it. It means a lot to me towear it today.”
Schrenk was not always a line-backer, however. He came to UNCas a quarterback, just as Beck did.However, Schrenk was faced withthe decision to warm the benchbehind then-starter BryanWaggener or do whatever he couldto play the game he loves.
“I just wanted to play,” Schrenksaid. “At quarterback, I was backup.Sitting behind Waggener, that wastough. I just wanted to get on thefield in whatever capacity I could,and I talked to coach Downing andcoach Deti, and they said, ‘Playlinebacker,’ and I said, ‘That’s great.Let’s go with that.’”
Schrenk, a fifth-year senior, saidhe will miss playing with his foot-ball brothers after he graduates thisyear, and the friendships he hasmade while playing has meant
more to him than the game heloves.
“The brotherhood is incredi-ble,” Schrenk said. “These guys are
my family – they’re my brothers. I’ddo anything for them. They knowthat, and it’s special. This team isvery near and dear to my heart.”

“It helps people know andsee a social support if they havebeen affected by it and may nothave been public about it,”Lepinski said. “It also raisesawareness about other things topeople who don’t think aboutit.”
Deana Davies, the coordinatorof ASAP, said the program’s mis-
sion this year is to unlock thesilence and that real power isfound when students have a voice.Another goal of the display andevent is to get students talkingabout the issues of assault.
“Change comes from interper-sonal conversations, when peoplecan delicately challenge each other’sstatements,” Davies said.
Lepinski said she has seen a lot ofpeople stop and can tell they aretouched by its message and aremoved to help.
“A lot of the time, we gothrough the day going from classto class without thinking,” saidKelsey Bryant, a freshman ele-mentary education major, whileshe decorated a T-shirt.
The T-shirt display can beseen in the UC through the restof this week. Those interested
in sending their own messagecan stop by the tables from 11a.m.-4 p.m. today and Thursdayor from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Friday.
“It’s very powerful because it’sour peers,” Lepinksi said. “It’s peo-ple we have classes with, that livedown the hall from us, that eatlunch with us. And when you stopand look, you realize these situa-tions aren’t foreign things.”
