World-renowned ar-chitect Enrique Sobejano’s thick Spanish accent flowed through the microphone as he described his philosophy and creative process to more than 150 K-State students and faculty.

Sobejano is a founding partner of an internation-ally acclaimed architecture firm Nieto Sobejano Arqui-tectos S.L. in Madrid. His award-winning work has been featured in the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and in the construction of cultural halls across Europe, including the Auditorium and Convention Centre of Aragón Expo in Zaragoza, Spain and the Moritzburg Museum Ex-tension in Halle, Germany.

The College of Architec-ture, Planning and Design

sponsored Sobejano’s Oscar Ekdahl Memorial Lecture, “Memory and Invention,” which was held in the Town Hall Room of the School of Leadership Studies on Monday afternoon.

Emily Koenig, instructor of architecture, said she ap-preciated Sobejano’s appear-

ance because he is a potential visiting chair for the College of Architecture, Planning and Design.

“It’s hard, when you’re not in a major urban center, to see working architects in practice, so it’s always worth going to see someone who’s willing to come and speak,” said Sam

Zeller, assistant professor of architecture. “At these kinds of things, people give a lot of themselves; they put their entire philosophy out on the line.”

Sobejano’s philosophy seemed to center more on the architecture’s surroundings and the environment’s influ-

ence on the design, than on the philosophy of the actual buildings themselves. He said he likes to incorporate colors, textures and shapes from sur-rounding nature into the ar-chitecture, and he is especially interested in using roofs as more than just necessary tops of buildings.

“There is this universal ac-ceptance of a flat roof, but the roof can become a genera-tor; it can introduce light and become a spatial element,” Sobejano said. “How to bring in light becomes a key ques-tion; how natural light comes in, and then transforms a building from the inside.”

He also discussed the con-cept of using the environment of the inside of the building as inspiration for the building’s structure. For example, if a building is planned to become a museum that will house im-pressionistic paintings, then Sobejano works to incorpo-rate impressionistic art into the skyline and “skin,” or exte-rior materials, of the building.

Sobejano further incorpo-rated surrounding elements into an architectural design on a recent project, in which he was commissioned to design a museum – just a museum. Instead, Sobejano created a museum-park, with plenty of negative space to allow pass-erby to walk through parts of the museum while remaining outdoors. Th e museum-park is currently under construction.

“I am thinking of architec-ture as part of the agricultural landscape,” he said. “It’s sort of a dialogue with the existing spaces.”

Devin Brown, third-year architecture student, said his favorite part of Sobejano’s lec-ture was his analysis of how each of his buildings relate to the sites in which they are situated.

“It’s amazing to see that actual architects get to build what they want; they don’t have to be controlled by the program so much,” Brown said. “It’s just some really cool projects.”

Climbing the career ladder from entry level to elite can be a diffi cult and taxing journey, but students preparing for careers in journalism will have the op-portunity tonight to learn a few tricks of the trade.

Four alumni from the A.Q. Miller School of Journalism will hold a panel discussion at 6:30 tonight in the main ballroom of the K-State Alumni Center, and students from all backgrounds will have the opportunity to ask questions and get answers about their prospective fi elds.

Panelists include Craig Bo-lerjack, CBS sportscaster and voice of the Utah Jazz profes-sional basketball team, Gail Pennybacker, broadcast jour-nalist for WJLA-TV in Wash-ington D.C. and Ted Lewis, photojournalist from Wichita. Jeff Morris, K-State’s vice presi-dent for communications and marketing, will moderate the discussion.

“It’s a chance to learn from people who have been out there and had successful careers and just see what they’ve done in the last 30 years or so,” Morris said. “Speakers will each make a brief statement and then they will answer questions. Th e whole idea is to share experiences and help each other learn.”

Th e idea for the panel dis-cussion came from the family of one panelist, Morris said.

“Craig Bolerjack has a son that goes to K-State and he was talking to Craig and said, ‘Wouldn’t it be great if you could come and share some career highlights with students?’” Morris said. “It was a student-driven initiative, and they came to us with the idea and we said we’d be glad to sponsor it.”

Students aren’t the only benefactors of the panel discus-sion. Morris said the alumni are looking forward to seeing each other again.

“Craig and Gail know each other. We were all in school at the same time,” Morris said. “It’ll be great fun, plus, I think I’ll probably learn some stuff .”

Southern Sudan is accustomed to fi ghting for its freedom, but now that the nation has suc-cessfully seceded and gained independence, it is calling upon K-State faculty to serve as life-lines for developing new

infrastructures.Sudan recently voted

to divide into two sepa-rate countries aft er an extensive and de-structive civil war. Th e newly formed Southern Sudan, which will be offi cially established on July 9, is attempting to organize its government and country, virtually building a nation from scratch.

Th e U.S. Agency of International De-velopment (USAID) is becoming active in the construction, and

K-State is one resource that Southern Sudan may use as they work to organize their coun-try’s foundation. A visit from Akot Arech, a Su-danese native who now lives in Olathe is the fi rst step to developing a partnership between the university and the new nation.

“Governor Brown-back, while he was sena-tor, had a very consid-erable interest in the Sudanese Civil War and the humanitarian prob-lems associated with

that,” said John Leslie, professor and head of the department of plant pathology. “Th is gentle-man is the assistant to the president of the soon-to-be country of Southern Sudan.”

“Th ey are trying to get a government up and running, and one of the things they need is a sustainable way of producing food,” Leslie said. “He was here to discuss potential part-nerships with K-State in terms of projects we may be able to help

them with in order to meet their needs.”

Th e task is not a stretch for faculty mem-bers of the university. Leslie has worked exten-sively with several coun-tries in Africa, includ-ing Kenya, Uganda and Ethiopia, and Steven Graham, assistant to the dean of the College of Agriculture, said several faculty members have experience with work in the international com-munity.

“Our researchers, our faculty, are abroad a lot,

especially in the College of Agriculture,” Graham said. “Our faculty have been working on quite a few projects in Africa and other parts of the world and traveling quite oft en, and that’s why people were able to speak up and off er advice.”

Arech and an assort-ment of K-State faculty members met to discuss what general steps or services may be helpful to Southern Sudan as

Fred Bradley has been at work for a while. Early mornings melt into late nights, which, with some luck and good health, turn into a career that spans decades. Bradley hasn’t had the predict-able career structure that most people fi nd comfortable and sus-taining, but that does not mean his work has not provided com-fort.

“I think I started teaching when I was 21 years old, and I didn’t look my age, so students naturally sought me out to talk about things going on in their lives,” said Bradley, professor of special education, counseling and student aff airs. “Th ere was a natural involvement in their lives because I was approachable and they could talk about things going on in their lives and their relationships with others.”

Bradley began his career as a gymnastics coach and social studies teacher, but when stu-dents began opening up to him about their problems, Bradley decided to pursue a career in counseling. Th e change in career meant more work for Bradley,

but also more comfort for his students and colleagues.

“Graduate school was a chal-lenge. I spent three years work-ing on my doctoral degree. I ac-crued over 120 hours of credits,” Bradley said. “I co-authored a book on parenting and wrote a text book on elementary coun-seling. Th ere are challenges to being both a teacher and a re-searcher. You have to be a re-source to the people with whom you work.”

“I still have graduate students to this day who will contact me about things going on in their lives and what they want to do with their careers,” Bradley said.

Bradley’s work has not gone unnoticed. Th is year, he was in-ducted into the Kansas Counsel-ing Association’s Hall of Fame, an honor that is bestowed upon only one counselor every year.

Lloyd Stone, a colleague and friend, nominated Bradley for the honor.

“I’ve seen his resume, and it’s about 15 pages long and it shows all of the services he’s provided to the state of Kansas and to sev-eral organizations,” Stone said. “Th ere is no question he is de-serving of that award.”

Th e K-State men’s golf team placed 14th this weekend, fi n-ishing 14-over-par 878 in the Border Olympics. Th e tourna-ment was held at the Laredo Country Club in Laredo, Texas.

No. 18 Arkansas won the team title for the tournament with a 32-under par 832. Th e individual crown went to Mi-chael Whitehead of Rice who carded a 19-under-par 197 for the tournament.

Freshman Th omas Birdsey fi nished 35th as the top golfer for the Wildcats with 1-over-par 217.

Coach Tim Norris said that

Birdsey played solid and had two birdies and a single bogey.

On Friday, the team held steady at 13th place aft er it completed the fi rst two rounds.

Th e Wildcats faced tough competition with No. 18 Ar-kansas and Oklahoma leading the tournament. K-State fi n-ished the day 6-over-par 582, led by Birdsey and sophomore Curtis Yonke.

Yonke tied for 35th with a 1-over-par 145 and Birdsey tied for 43rd aft er carding a 2-over-par 146.

Norris said the course has a challenging layout, but those two players read it well, espe-cially considering it was their fi rst time in Laredo.

He said overall, the team had some good scores, but no great scores.

On Saturday, the Wildacats dropped a place among the com-petitive teams and fi nished 14th. In the fi nal round, K-State was 8-over-par 296 and fi nished the tournament 14-over-par 878.

While there was less wind at the tournament on Saturday, Norris said the pin placement was more challenging. In order to birdie, the golfers had little room for error when driving it in the fairway.

Th e Wildcats will compete in the Cowboy Classic in Scotts-dale, Ariz., on April 4 - 5. Th e competition will be held at the Talking Stick Golf Course.

Like many other students, the members of the women’s golf team spent some time away from Manhattan for spring break. The Wildcats had two destinations during the one-week recess from school: St. George, Utah, and Tucson, Ariz. In the former city, K-State placed 10th of 15 teams at the BYU Entra-da Classic. In the latter, the Wildcats came in 14th of 18 schools.

At the BYU Entrada Clas-sic on March 21 and 22, the team’s score improved ever so slightly throughout the rounds: 27-over-par 315 in the first, 24-over-par 312 in the second, and 21-over-par 309 in the third.

Head coach Kristi Knight said the temperatures were low, there were gusty winds on the first day of competition and the women played fairly well despite the less-than-fa-vorable conditions. Heading into the next day of compe-tition in sixth place, the sun came out and it was almost 60 degrees with just a small breeze. Unfortunately, K-State did not capitalize.

“We didn’t fall off the map or anything, it’s just that on a day like that ... in the sport of golf, sometimes you get conditions for scoring, and when that happens, in order to maintain your spot on the leaderboard or move up,

you’ve got to take advantage of that and get four solid scores, and we weren’t able to do that the final round,” Knight said.

Within the team’s 10th-place finish in that tourna-ment, one Wildcat secured a top 10 individual finish; junior Paige Osterloo tied for sixth place. She overcame a first-round score of 8-over-par 80 to finish with a three-round score of 10-over-par 226.

“That was a super result in a good, competitive field of players,” Knight said. “She did a great job.”

Freshman Gianna Misen-helter tied for 26th place with a final score of 18-over-par 234. Sophomore Whitney Pyle and junior Ami Storey tied for 39th with efforts of 22-over-par 238. Sophomore Kristen Dorsey came in at 36-over-par 252 and tied for 67th place.

Just a few days later on March 25 and 26, the women competed in the Mountain View Collegiate. The Wildcats placed 14th and the round scores varied more than in the earlier BYU Entrada Classic. In the first round at Mountain View, the team shot a 3-over-par 291; in the second, it was a 23-over-par 311, and in the final round the team brought the score back down to a 14-over-par 302.

“On that golf course, scor-ing is low,” Knight said. “It tends to be low every year. They did play the golf course a little bit longer this year, but the changes they made, the

holes they made them on, it still didn’t really impact the ladies too much. It’s a golf course that provides opportu-nities to make birdies and to shoot par better and we got off to a great start.”

All that added up to a total of 40-over-par 904, the team’s best three-round score since the Johnie Imes Invitational of early October.

Pyle recorded her lowest career round at Mountain View, playing the 18 holes in 69 shots. She finished tied for 30th with a 6-over-par 222, her lowest three-round score thus far.

Storey tied for 45th with a score of 9-over-par 225, and fellow junior Osterloo came in tied for 64th with a total of 14-over-par 230. Misen-helter tied for 61st place with a 13-over-par 229 effort and Dorsey tied for 79th with a score of 19-over-par 235.

“We’re not playing as well as I’d like as a team,” Knight said. “We are getting some good in-dividual performances. We’re getting good rounds here and there, and that’s important. It’s just a matter of putting it all together here down the final stretch. I think we can do that.”

The Wildcats next compete in the Indiana Invitational in Columbus, Ind., on April 4 and 5. That will be the team’s last competition before the two-and-a-half week hiatus that precedes the Big 12 Championships on April 22.

It takes a few clicks to keep oneself up to date with the most current news all over the world. It has become my habit to surf online as long as I have access to the Internet. One night, I was on a computer working on my homework and, while procrastinat-ing, I visited a Japanese blog that I had subscribed to. On the top was the news about the earthquake that had occurred a few minutes earlier in Japan.

On March 11 at 2:46 p.m., the northeastern part of Japan was struck by a devastating earthquake. It measured 9.0 magnitude near the coast and was reported to be one of the largest earthquakes in recorded history. What made this chaotic situation even worse and remarkable was the chain reaction of one disaster causing another: Th e earthquake created a tsunami which hit the coast and swept off the towns in the region. It had also caused failure in a

number of nuclear power plants along the coastline in Fukushima Prefecture. Th e risk of toxic radiation contami-nation due to their malfunction has threatened the entire nation ever since.

I had a hard time taking everything in and believing the earthquake was true at fi rst, mainly because all that I learned about this particular event came from second-hand experiences of people in Japan. When one of my older sisters in Japan sent my family an e-mail to confi rm she was safe and fi ne, she said she had diffi culty understand-ing the situation as well, because where she lives was far away enough from the focus of the earthquake to not be directly aff ected by the disasters. Th en I began to think, what if all the articles, pictures and videos that I had viewed online never actually happened. Unfor-tunately, they were real.

Th e following Sunday in the evening, two days aft er the earthquake, I was working on my homework while watch-ing a Japanese news channel online. I kept my eyes on the screen with over-whelming images of destruction and breaking news in regards to the current situations of the nuclear power plants. I ended up staying up late watching the live stream and, for some reason, I refused to fi nish my paper that was

due the next day. I asked myself, “What am I doing?” I probably did not want to admit that school work was more important to me at the same moment people in my home country were suff er-ing from the loss of home and family. In fact, I felt a strong sense of resentment when I fi nally completed the paper.

It had never occurred to me before that the world a few clicks away could be so agitating that I almost wished to avoid looking at it. However, what scares me more was the fact it was all up to me to decide whether or not to be informed of the details of the crises. Needless to say, it is not a choice for me, for it is my home country where the tragedy takes place. I fi nally came to realize “What can I do?” was the ques-tion each individual must ask oneself in response to what you see on the screen, rather than feeling indignant and help-lessness.

As a Japanese student at K-State, I encourage everyone to take a moment to think about what you can do for support and participate in charity events held by the Japanese Student Associa-tion around campus.

Japanese student reflects on tsunami, earthquake disaster in homeland

Entertainment industries could possibly suff er fi nancially, needs to adapt to changing times

Yosuke Michishita

REPLAY

I came to a realization over spring break that history really does repeat itself, especially when it comes to the fear of change. Every time people get used to the way something is and it changes, they freak out. In case you all hadn’t noticed, these are fast changing times we live in and we must change with them or get run over.

I was driving down Clafl in Avenue listen-ing to the radio when the DJ announced that Jon Bon Jovi blames Steve Jobs and iTunes for destroying the music industry. At that exact moment, I drove by Blockbuster Video and observed signs declaring a going-out-of-business sale. I laughed because sud-denly it was the 1980s all over again.

Yes, I am old enough to remember the ‘80s. I remember the music industry screaming bloody murder because people could record music off the radio onto cas-sette tapes. Likewise, the same was said about people recording stuff onto video tapes, particularly movies and music videos.

Fast forward to the late 1990s. Th e music

industry again predicted the end-of-times because technology had unleashed a new menace: the CD-RW drive. Yes, people could now burn their own music CDs at home. To make matters worse, Napster came out soon aft er. Angst.

Th is brings us to the present day, where we have contraptions that merge TV, phone, Internet, music and more all in the palm of your hand. I get all giddy whenever something new like the iPad comes out because it makes me think back to the days of my childhood when this sort of thing was only available on “Star Trek.” But while I’m having fun, these are scary times we live in for the entertainment industries.

According to a March 24 article by variety.com, Time Warner Cable is facing litigation because it launched an application that would allow customers with an iPad to stream TV channels in their home. One of the complaints is that the Nielsen Ratings can’t track it. Meanwhile, Blockbuster Video, who was once the largest movie rental com-pany in the world, has fi led for bankruptcy and is in the process of closing some stores and “reorganizing” others, according to a March 25 Bloomberg article.

Th is is not the end of times, you morons. You must adapt or die. Take a lesson from Netfl ix. Th ey started off strong when they gave people the opportunity to rent movies using their computer at home and have them delivered through the mail. As web-

sites like YouTube and Hulu began to gain more popularity, Netfl ix didn’t freak out, they changed gears and began pumping up their sites to off er more movies on demand and online streaming. Rental-reviews360.com reported in 2007 Netfl ix was the largest video subscription service on the Internet with more than 5 million users. Today, they are still the largest in the world and their membership has increased to 20 million users, according to a Jan. 26 press release.

Not everybody is ready to give Netfl ix a pat on the back like I am. PC World re-ported on March 27 that Netfl ix has begun to get backlash from channels like Show-time and Starz, who will either delay or discontinue Netfl ix’s ability to stream shows like “Dexter” and “Camelot.” However, Netfl ix is already a step ahead of them; they have announced plans to launch their fi rst original series “House of Cards,” starring Kevin Spacey, next year.

If people in Hollywood, record labels and TV want to continue crying about change, they can, but they’re forgetting something: Th ere will always be a demand for entertainment and somebody has to create it. Th at will never change. So, adapt like Netfl ix or die like Blockbuster. It’s that simple.

With spring break over and the end of the semester rough-ly a month and a half away, new life is being injected into the sports scene on campus.

Basketball season is over and the focus is now shifting to other sports. The K-State football team will have their spring game to showcase the future of their program, which is bright. Baseball is in full force, and this year’s squad has high expectations. The equestrian program is ranked in the top 10 nationally and will compete in the Big 12 Championships on Friday. The rowing, tennis and golf squads all have full slates ahead of them.

Winter seemingly brings hibernation to the football team, while spring brings new life to it. The month of April, particularly the end of April, will prove to be a busy one for head coach Bill Snyder’s squad. To start off, the Na-tional Football League’s draft kicks off on April 28. Former running back Daniel Thomas, barring a disaster or a sudden turn of events, is expected to be drafted anywhere between the second and fifth rounds.

Thomas was in attendance at the NFL Scouting Combine, but did not participate due to a lingering hamstring injury. If Thomas falls in the draft, he could be taken the same day that the program holds its annual Purple/White Spring Game on April 30. The annual event gives fans a glimpse at what the team will look like in the coming season.

While the football team will be celebrating the anticipated draft selection of Thomas and showcasing the future, head coach Brad Hill’s baseball team is heading into the heart of a grueling schedule that will show whether or not the team can live up to the expectations placed upon them. The team has earned a berth into the NCAA Regional Tournament the last two years, but now they want to go further.

The team is led by Nick Martini, the reigning Big 12 player of the year, who currently has a team-best .338 batting average. They are coming off arguably the toughest part of their sched-ule. They traveled to Austin and Waco, Texas, where they took on Texas and Baylor, a pair of baseball powers. The schedule will be more forgiv-ing in the week ahead.

Arguably the most elite program on campus, the equestrian squad, is also going in full force this spring. The team is currently ranked No. 6 in the country and are the reigning 2010 Reserve Nation-al Champions. Friday, they will travel to College Station, Texas, for the Big 12 Cham-pionships. Then, on April 14, the team will find itself at the Varsity Equestrian National Championship in Waco.

Finally, the rowing, tennis and golf squads are also in session. The rowing team is an under the radar program that has enjoyed success this season. Their next event is this weekend, where they travel to San Diego, Calif.

The women’s tennis team is coming off one of its most memorable wins, as it upset the No. 25 Texas A&M Aggies for the first time in history, and hopes to continue the trend of success in the coming weeks.

Finally, the men’s and wom-en’s golf teams are hoping to make noise this year and their biggest tests will be the Big 12 Championships. The men’s tournament is in Hutchinson, Kan., starting on April 26, while the women’s tournament is in Columbia, Mo., starting on April 22.

Spring season brings new life

Sean Fryejunior staff writer

Th e K-State Wildcats’ rowing squad began its spring season on March 18-20 with the Long-horn Invitational at Lady Bird Lake in Austin, Texas.

Th e team competed 1st Novice 8, 1st Varsity 4, 2nd Varsity 8 and 1st Varsity 8 races against San Diego, Louisville, Central Florida and Iowa.

Th e Wildcats only won one race on the weekend, but the focus of the competition was getting technically profi -cient against teams that had all winter to train on the water.

“With the lack of water time we had compared to other teams, we didn’t know how it was going to go,” head coach Patrick Sweeney said. “I was confi dent with them physically, but I was hesitant with them on the water. We increased our rate of strokes per minute from about 28 to 31. A good race rate is 34 to 36, so we’re catching up.”

On Friday, the team faced off against San Diego and lost with all four boats. However, three of the races were close with K-State fi nishing within six sec-onds of San Diego.

Saturday the team faced Louisville in the morning and again lost all four. Later in the

day, the Wildcats fi nally got their fi rst victory of the spring when the 1st Novice 8 boat beat the University of Central Flori-da by 18 seconds.

“What was interesting about that win was they came out fi red up and started off well,” Sweeney said. “In novice

racing, there tends to be a lot of mistakes made, but they didn’t make any mistakes. Th ey went out and beat Central Florida, a team in the sunshine and gets to be on the water earlier, which is great.”

Th e Wildcats lost the other three races to Central Florida,

then four to Iowa. Despite the losses, Sweeney was satisfi ed with how the girls performed and improved over the week-end.

“It was a good start to the season for us,” Sweeney said. “You never know until you get onto the water what you can

do. Th e teams that we were up against have been in the water, they have tanks that they can practice in, so they’re further advanced than we are. We got beat by them but the thing about it is that we weren’t far off them. Th e next step is to step it up and close that gap.”

Two other factors played a key during the Wildcats’ per-formance at the Longhorn In-vitational; the weather and the changing of lineups. Similar to last year’s Longhorn Invita-tional, the weather failed to co-operate and made life diffi cult for the rowers. As for the lineup changes, one of Sweeney’s goals going into the event was to fi nd the right combination for each boat to be successful.

“If you’re on the water, we would have done it in January or February,” Sweeney said. “It’s just part of putting together a crew. Sometimes the land train-ing results don’t refl ect how technically well someone is. We went into the races with the knowledge that we would move people around. It was some-thing to mess around with.”

With the fi rst event and a week of water training over spring break complete, the Wildcats are now preparing for the San Diego Crew Classic, be-ginning April 2.

K-State rowing fi nds focus at Longhorn Invitational

Wildcats unable to take advantage of opportunities against Bears

Tyler Scottsenior staff writer

Th e K-State baseball team came up short in Waco, Texas, in two of the three games against No. 21 ranked Baylor. Th e Wildcats won Saturday’s game 6-3, but lost the other two close games by a combined two runs, 5-4 on Friday and 4-3 on Sunday.

Friday’s game came down to the ninth inning when sophomore shortstop Tanner Witt forced a bad throw to fi rst allowing Baylor’s Lawton Langford to reach base safely. Later, Langford scored to tie the game at four. Baylor earned another run when Landis Ware scored on a single by Chris Slater.

K-State’s Kyle Hunter had a quality outing going seven innings and allowing three runs. K-State scored all four of its runs in the third inning led by junior outfi elder Nick Martini’s RBI double, which knocked in the team’s fi rst run of the game. A pair of singles and a sacrifi ce fl y led to the team’s other three runs.

On Saturday, the Wildcats had more of an off ense, scor-ing three runs in the eighth inning to solidify the vic-

tory. Junior infi elder Jason King broke the 3-3 tie when he hit a two-run home run. Junior pitcher Matt Apple-gate pitched 5 1/3 innings, giving up three runs on six hits, while freshman pitcher Shane Conlon recorded 2 1/3 scoreless innings to earn his fi rst win of the season.

Martini, who went 1-for-3 in the second game and 1-for-5 in the third game, ex-tended his nation-leading on base streak to 82 games.

K-State let a 2-0 lead slip away in the fi ft h inning of the fi nal game on Sunday when the Bears scored three runs. Th e Wildcats tied it in the top of the eighth inning, but Baylor scored the decid-ing run when they went to bat next. Baylor’s Cal Towey scored with two outs on a single by Jake Miller. K-State junior pitcher Evan Mar-shall took his second loss of the season, while Baylor’s Brooks Pinckard earned the victory.

Th e Wildcats had oppor-tunities in the sixth and sev-enth inning to tie the game, but could not take advantage. Th e team stranded a man on third base aft er junior in-fi elder Jake Brown grounded out to end the inning.

Witt went 3-for-4 with a run scored, while King had a 3-for-5 day. Baylor had three diff erent players go 2-for-4.

K-State will start a two-game series against North-ern Colorado at 6:30 tonight.

WALK IT OUTAustin Ennscoverage editor

People in diff rent styles of

clothes paraded down a catwalk as pop music from Fergie and Lady Gaga played in the back-ground. Th e crowd cheered as the models strutted and posed, and dancers from Poize Hip Hop dance team entertained during the intermission.

Th e Prime Illusions Fash-ion Show took place in the K-State Student Union Ballroom last night. Tiff any McFarlane, sophomore in apparel market-ing and coordinator of Prime Illusions, and Nathan Spriggs, junior in agricultural econom-ics, hosted the event.

McFarlane said she was pleased with the turnout and the participation in the event.

“I’m very happy because it was my fi rst time ever doing anything like this,” McFarlane said. “I plan on doing another one next semester, got to bring bigger and better fashion.”

Th e event was held to help raise awareness for breast cancer.

Auditions were held to help pick out the models, and most of the 13 stylists are majoring in apparel marketing or apparel and textiles.

Patricia Hansen, sophomore in elementary education, was one of the few stylists whose major was completed unrelated to fashion. She said McFarlane asked her to participate in the show.

Hansen said the stylists did not solely pick the clothes the models wore.

“It was partly what the model liked, and sort of what I liked,” Hansen said. “It was based on

a spring-summer kind of look.” ShopDaisy Boutique, Rue

21, PacSun, Sears, Envy, Th e Purple Pump and Rockstar & Rogers all donated clothes for the models to wear.

Models walked down the cat-walk twice, the fi rst time wear-ing their own clothes, and aft er the intermission the models wore clothes from the stores.

Travis Youngblood, store manager for PacSun, said he was glad to help out the orga-nizers of the fashion show and one of his employees Brandy Propst, junior in apparel mar-keting and management, who was participating.

“Well Brandy works for me and is one of the stylists,” Youngblood said. “Th ey ap-proached us and asked if we wanted to help. We want to be part of the community and many of our employees are K-

State students.”Th e rows of seats on either

side of the catwalk were fi lled with students cheering for their favorite models, and the rows of chairs at the front of the catwalk were mostly full fi ve or six rows back.

A singer came out at the end of the fi rst part of the show, and sang hits like Usher’s “OMG” with dancers in the back-ground.

Amara Giersch, freshman in apparel marketing, said she en-joyed the show.

“I think it’s really good, more people should have come, they did a really good job putting it together,” Giersch said. “I kind of liked the performers, it’s pretty entertaining.”

At the end, the two co-hosts gave white roses to the stylists, and red roses to the representa-tives of PacSun.

TOP-SECRET FILE

“My experience as the advertising manager at the Collegian opened many doors that allowed me to work at

a job that I love. Because of this experiene I had a job waiting for me after college.”

kansas state collegianpage 8 tuesday, march 29, 2011

the country’s new leadership looks to construct a fi rm foun-dation.

“Th e talks went well. I would expect this to be the fi rst of a number of discussions between various people in Southern Sudan and faculty and adminis-trators here on campus,” Leslie said. “At some point in time we will meet with a delegation from Southern Sudan who will come to discuss agricultural projects.”

Leslie said agriculture is one of the most important infra-structures for new governments to have in place, and as of now Southern Sudan is almost en-tirely devoid of an agricultural system.

“Th ey are in a place were they really don’t have an in-frastructure in agriculture. It’s almost starting at the ground level,” said Dan Devlin, profes-sor of agronomy and director of the Kansas Center for Agricul-tural Resources and the Envi-ronment.

Founding a new agricultural infrastructure is not simple, however. Even with the aid from the Agency of International De-velopment and K-State, South-ern Sudan is facing a long walk towards agricultural stability.

“Th ey need a whole lot of things. USAID is in the pro-cess of paving one of the main roads from the capital to the Kenyan border. People need to be able to move around to have an eff ective kind of commerce, and you can’t move excess food around if you have no roads de-veloped,” Leslie said. “It’s very much a challenge.”

Another major problem is presented by Southern Sudan’s international relations with surrounding African coun-tries. Southern Sudan’s major sources of water, the Blue Nile and White Nile Rivers, fl ow into the country from Kenya and Uganda. Th ere is some concern that Southern Sudan will not receive enough fresh water for

irrigation because surrounding countries will have fi rst dibs as the water fl ows from their lands across the borders into South-ern Sudan.

“Kansas has fought Colorado and Nebraska for how many years about the amount of water that fl ows through and who gets rights to the water,” Leslie said. “Now imagine that it’s diff er-ent countries fi ghting for these rights and they don’t necessarily like each other all that much.”

If too much water is used up-stream, Southern Sudan may be unable to support an extensive system of agriculture, which could be detrimental to Afri-cans even outside the borders of the newly seceded Sudan.

“I have worked in a number of African countries, and Sudan has the potential to feed half the continent if they quit killing each other,” Leslie said.

K-State may also serve a role in Southern Sudan’s develop-ment of an educational system, Leslie said.

“A number of years ago, K-State was very instrumental in building universities in Botswa-na and other countries, and we haven’t done that recently, but we might be called on to do that again,” Leslie said.

Th ough K-State’s role in Southern Sudan remains unde-fi ned, Leslie said it was positive that the university was off er-ing aid and information to the fl edgling country.

“It’s absolutely critical for us to reach out on a global scale,” Leslie said. “Th ese are the people who buy the products that we make or grow. Th ese are the people we buy things from, and we need to interact with them.”

“If you really want to keep peace in the world, this is a good step,” Leslie said. “It’s a lot easier to hate somebody you’ve never met than somebody whose hand you have shaken or sat down with for dinner one night. Th ose kinds of human in-teractions are critical.”

that began at the University of Wyoming in 1970 and contin-ued at K-State in 1972, Stone said rewards were never a mo-tivation for Bradley.

“He doesn’t do things for the rewards. He does a lot of things behind the scenes and does things to get them done,” Stone said. “He really cared about his students and went out of his way to help them fi nd jobs. Students became very com-mitted to him because he was committed to them.”

After being nominated for the Hall of Fame by Stone, Bradley was asked to fill out “volumes” of paperwork de-tailing his background and even had to provide references to the selection committee. Still, Bradley did not know he was being inducted until his daughter showed up to the an-nouncement ceremony.

“I had some sense, but I didn’t really know until the reception in Wichita. My wife

brought my daughter, who is a veterinarian in Atlanta, so she could be there for the luncheon, so I fi gured she had been told that I would be rec-ognized,” Bradley said. “When I got to the reception, I realized I was the only nominee there and it kind of made sense.”

The recognition was de-served, said Stone, and it comes near the end of a long career. This semester is Brad-ley’s last as a full-time profes-sor before he begins phased retirement. Though he plans on staying active through volunteer work and will still mentor some masters and doctoral students, Bradley is unsure how he will fill the spare time he has grown unac-customed to.

“I’m not inclined to sit and watch television, and I’m not a gardener so I will need to find something else,” Bradley said. “I have to grow up and figure out what I will do with the rest of my life because my career at K-State will be complete.”

K-State Research and Extension

With corn planters begin-ning to roll soon, it is a good time to think about the relative importance of uniformity of emergence and stand unifor-mity, said Kraig Roozeboom, Research and Extension crop production specialist.

“Th ese are two diff erent things,” Roozeboom said. “Uniformity of emergence deals with timing. Do most plants come up at the same time, or are some delayed by several days? Stand uniformity has to do with how consistent plant spacing is within the row.”

Of those two factors, uni-formity of emergence is more important to corn yields than stand uniformity, he said.

Getting good uniformity of emergence can have a big eff ect on yields. Producers should make an extra eff ort to ensure that most of the corn seed comes up at nearly the same time. Many factors can come into play.

“Emergence can be delayed by having variable moisture in the seed zone, crusting, non-uniform planting depth or non-uniform crop residue,” he said.

Research has shown that if one out of six plants is delayed by two leaf stages, yields can be reduced by 4 percent, Roo-zeboom said. If one out of six plants is delayed by four leaf stages, yields can be reduced by up to 8 percent. Other re-search has indicated that if plants emerged within a period

of two weeks, yield reductions were less than 3 percent.

Planter speed can aff ect both emergence and stand uniformity, said Stu Duncan, Research and Extension Northeast Area crops and soils specialist.

“Research conducted in northeast Kansas has shown

that higher planting speeds reduces fi nal plant popula-tion, and that this had a greater impact on yield than did any reductions in uniformity of plant spacing. Be sure to follow manufacturer guidelines for recommended planter speeds,” he said.

High-residue, no-till situ-

ations can be challenging for getting uniform emergence, said DeAnn Presley, Research and Extension soil manage-ment specialist.

“Uniform distribution of crop residues during harvest is essential for uniform emer-gence of the next crop. Th e use of vertical tillage, as well as chopping corn heads, are gaining popularity as ways to manage corn residue,” she said.

Presley recommended that planter units be adjusted to optimize seed placement and depth, adding that seed fi rm-ers may help place seeds more uniformly.

Emergence might be de-layed slightly with deeper planting, but the corn will likely emerge more uniformly than if it were planted too shal-lowly, Roozeboom added.

Getting good stand unifor-mity is also a good goal for producers, but it has less eff ect on yield than uniformity of emergence, the K-State agron-omists said.

“Try to obtain plant spac-ings that are as consistent as possible, but don’t become overly anxious about it provid-ed the typical spacing between plants is within 2 to 3 inches of the desired plant spacing and the fi nal population is not sub-stantially lower than what was desired,” Roozeboom said.

Duncan has been studying corn plant populations and stand uniformity the past few years. His results indicate little yield reduction from non-uni-form stands as long as the fi nal population is within 15 percent of the target population.
