Office) — Pause for Paws, an ani-mal therapy and shelter aware-ness event, hosted by Minot StateUniversity students in the Honors391 class, “Community ProblemSolving,” will be April 5 from 1 to5 p.m. on the Old Main lawn.Community members are wel-come to play with cats and dogs aswell as learn more about the

On Movies‘Zootopia’
by Alex NelsonStaff Writer
I hope everyone had a goodspring break, whether hangingaround with friends, seeing fami-ly members, doing some home-work or watching movies at thetheater.
“Zootopia” stars GinniferGoodwin, Jason Bateman, IdrisElba, J.K. Simmons, Jenny Slate,Octavia Spencer, Nate Torrence,Tommy Chong and Shakira. It isdirected by Byron Howard andRich Moore and rated PG forsome scary scenes and crudehumor.
In a world full of animals, a
young bunny, Judy Hopps(Goodwin), has always dreamedof becoming a police officer in thecity of Zootopia. The widelyknown city features many colorfulresidents such as pop singerGazelle (Shakira), yoga instructorYax (Chong), donut-loving policedispatcher Clawhauser (Torrence)and its mayor, Leodore Lionheart(Simmons) and his assistant DawnBellwether (Slate).
When Judy arrives at the policestation that is led by Chief Bogo(Elba), she realizes that her goal isharder then it seems as the city hashigh tensions between animals ofprey and predators. As a bunny,Judy is expected to do minimal-task work instead of importantcases. She gets a chance to proveherself when she is assigned to
find the husband of Mrs. Otterton(Spencer), who is one of the manypredators who have gone missing.
Having 48 hours to solve thecase, Judy is forced to receive helpfrom a fox, con artist Nick Wilde(Bateman), who is forced to helpher in return. Together, they haveto put their differences aside asthey try to solve the case with lim-ited time and with a much biggerthreat involved that could shakeZootopia to its core.
I remember seeing the firsttrailer last year, and all I got wasthat it was about a bunch of talk-ing animals. After seeing this film,however, it is much more thanthat. The plot is a bit similar to theclassic 80s film, "48 Hours," featur-ing Eddie Murphy as a convictand Nick Nolte as a cop. The orig-
inal was more about these twoputting their differences asidewhile finding two murderers,while in "Zootopia," the maincharacters put aside their differ-ences to solve a crime, but at thesame time, they both try handlingthe prejudices that many residentsin the city appear to have towardsone another.
Judy is not being taken serious-ly as a cop due to being a bunny,while everyone expects Nick to bea sly liar since he is a fox. The waythey use animals to describeracism and prejudices was actual-ly really clever. The animationwas very well done, and the castdid a great job portraying eachcharacter featured, especially theleads, Goodwin and Bateman.
I didn't have any problems
with "Zootopia," though I shouldnote that while it's rated PG, thereare some moments in the film thatmay be viewed as inappropriateor scary for very young children.With that in mind, it would bewise for parents to be consideratewhen bringing their children tothis movie.
"Zootopia" does a really goodjob at handling the tough subjectsof racism and stereotypes for akids’ film. Overall, no matter ifyou are young or old, "Zootopia"is worth the watch for its interest-ing characters, beautiful anima-tion, good storytelling and itsdeep themes.
I personally rate "Zootopia" 5out of 5 Beavers.
Book Review‘Perfume: The Story of a Murderer’ by Patrick Suskind
maybe because of the idea ofdesire the story deals with andhow fascinatingly the novel por-trays it.
The plot centers on Grenouille,the genius of scent, who sets outon a dangerous journey to findand murder the most beautifulgirls in Paris to make the greatestperfume of our century out oftheir fragrances. The novel almostdescribes Grenouille like a blood-hound, an animal and a hunterwhose relentless desire knows not
a single stopping point. He chaseshis prey until the end, even if itwill ultimately kill him.
Grenouille’s desire is frighten-ing, yet fascinating, because thenovel makes his obsession veryclear for us readers. Grenouillesimply desires the women fortheir scent, nothing more.However, “Perfume” not onlyinvolves the desire of the protago-nist, but also highlights the desireof the writer to create characterswith strong passions. Every char-
acter, who all possess differentdesires of their own, reflects thewriter’s contemplation about aconcept of human desire.
The author, Suskind, embodiesthe characteristics of his protago-nist, Grenouille. His desire towrite is similar to that of any otherobsessive writer. Perhaps that iswhy this novel features a protago-nist who doggedly chases hisdesire.
Like Stephen King, who con-stantly wrote even when nobody
recognized him, Suskind, too,started writing short novels at ayoung age, yet received no atten-tion.
Soon after “Perfume” cameout, his single-act play,“Contrabass,” followed in 1986.Suskind has earned the title of“top writer of our generation.”However, even after his empire ofstorytelling was successfully cre-ated, he rejected awards given tohim, not to mention his staunch

refusal to be photographed. Atonce, Suskind became a mysteriousreclusive writer that received theattention by rejecting it all.
Grenouille, too, possesses agreat talent, yet because his talentcan only be put on display in a ter-ritory of vanity, scent, like his cre-ator he, too, was a lonely recluse. In“Perfume,” people in Paris lived inan era where everybody seemed tobe too busy arguing over the exis-tence of God to notice their dyingneighbor, or to find out the neigh-bor’s body had decayed already. Inthe midst of all this foulness,behind a fish market in a filthyalley in monotonous Paris, thestory of Grenouille, whose talent istoo esoteric to be recognized,unfolds.
“Perfume” is somewhat of aperverse novel because Grenouillegains recognition only through hismurders and not through his tal-ent. However, surprisingly, we allfeel sympathy for this very oddcharacter, better yet, pity over hisunheeded genius.
“Perfume” is not aShakespearean tragedy. Yet, it isthe last chapter of the book whichenables us to digest the dramatiza-tion as Suskind’s own take ontragedy, as it finally reveals theending of Grenouille’s ghastly pur-suit.
Akin to Grenouille’s empire offragrances in the novel, Suskind’sempire is his strange, yet captivat-ing, story itself. “Perfume” has ahandful of philosophical ideas justas interesting as Suskind’s story.With Grenouille’s lifelong dedica-tion, the perfume, which isephemeral,
Suskind deals with the concept
of futility.We see that desire starts to be
identified as no more than a burn-ing passion. Passion at its coremeans to love something.Therefore, even Grenouille, thesociopath, appears to be pure inthe beginning of the novel. Then,we witness the few seconds whenthe desire burns the brightest,which feels like a few seconds ofeternity. This is when Grenouillefinally succeeds in making themost perfect perfume in the worldand basks in his glory. However,soon we are exposed to the dark-ness after the brilliant combustion.At the end, the perfume is gone.
Grenouille decides to pour theentire bottle away, but where?From here on, I intend to let thereaders find out rather than dis-close the details.
All in all, “Perfume” has every-thing. Obsession and passion asan artist, sadness and anxiety asan odd man out, are all instru-ments which inhabit the mind ofSuskind’s genius protagonist.Indeed, Suskind’s “Perfume” is atwisted story, yet it is one that isunarguably fascinating. Whowould have let their desire touchtheir deepest imagination in orderto come up with brilliant ideassuch as to kidnap and murderwomen in order to distill and bot-tle their body’s fragrance?
Doesn’t such an idea send achill down your spine?

Emilie Rebelo goes proStudent Spotlight ...
By Gemma BiasettoComm 281
Kids are told to dream big.They are told “impossible” is justtwo words put together … “I’mpossible.” No matter life’s chal-lenges, some kids get the opportu-nity to make their dream cometrue. Emilie Rebelo, Minot StateUniversity alumnus, is one ofthose kids.
“[If] you believe it, it canbecome a reality,” recent graduateRebelo said.
In her younger days, Rebeloidolized big-time players such asMia Hamm and Michelle Akers.The now-retired professional soc-cer players are known for chang-ing the women’s game across theglobe.
One of Hamm’s famous quotesis, “The vision of a champion isbent over, drenched in sweat, atthe point of exhaustion, whennobody else is looking.”
That’s exactly what Rebelo didso her dream of becoming a pro-fessional soccer player could cometrue.
“She would put in the extratrainings, even when everyoneelse was on break,” fellow MinotState teammate, goalkeeperCelene Johnson said. “HavingEmilie in front of me [in defense]
reassured me that I could count onher to be there at any moment.”
Rebelo is sureto be somewherein the gym or onthe field.
“Emilie is oneof the hardestworking playersI know,” MSUstudent andclose friendSkyler Niebuhr said. “She is thereason why I got into watchingsoccer.”
Rebelo has spent most of herlife trying, and succeeding, to getto the next level. However, it takesmore than just talent.
“My advice is, if you wantsomething, then go for it. Be will-ing to put the work in behind thescenes,” Rebelo said.
“Emilie’s an amazing playerand even better friend,” assistantcoach Marie Torres said. “She’scourageous, completely hilariousand quite possibly one of the mostcompassionate persons I’ve evermet.”
Rebelo’s dreams of becoming aprofessional athlete could havedisappeared in an instant, howev-er. After graduating fromNatomas High School inSacramento, Calif., her plans did-
n’t include Minot State. Instead,she had already verbally commit-ted to California State-MontereyBay. That is, until the head coachfor the Otters was replaced.
“So I got left with nowhere togo with about maybe two monthsbefore the start of the season,”Rebelo said.
That’s when MSU head coachJason Spain called her up andasked her to play for his team.Rebelo redshirted her first seasonwith MSU, then went on to playher remaining four years consecu-tively.
Since joining the team in 2011,Rebelo has played in 78 gamesand scored 16 goals with eightassists, and a total of 40 points.Her last collegiate game wasagainst the University of CentralMissouri in the second round ofthe NCAA Division II CentralRegion tournament back inNovember.
The newly graduated soccerstar left on March 9 to play inBrisbane, Australia. She hassigned a one-year contract withthe Mitchelton Football Club,which will mark the beginning ofher post-collegiate career as a pro-fessional soccer player.
Now that she has graduatedwith a degree in corporate fitness,
she looks forward to seeingAustralia and experiencing newthings. Zip lining and snorkeling
are just a couple of adventures sheis excited to cross off her bucketlist in the land down under.

Completing the FreeApplication for Federal StudentAid (FAFSA) is the first steptoward getting federal aid for col-lege or graduate school. Studentscan start preparing for the Fall 2016semester by filing their FAFSAnow for the 2016-2017 school year.Completing and submitting theFAFSA is free and quick.
The FAFSA determines eligibil-ity for only one academic year,therefore, students must apply forfinancial aid every year. Even if astudent only received loans theprevious academic year, theFAFSA should be filed every year.The federal need analysis formulais complex enough that even asimple change in circumstancesmay have a big impact on eligibil-ity for need-based financial aid.For example, an increase in thenumber of children in college maysignificantly reduce a family’sexpected family contribution(EFC), which would increase eligi-bility for financial aid.
For the fall 2016 or spring 2017semesters, students returning toMinot State University shouldcomplete and submit the 2016-2017 FAFSA online atwww.fafsa.gov. Enter the MSUschool code, 002994, on yourFAFSA to have your informationsent to MSU. Submit your FAFSAby April 8 in order for the MSUFinancial Aid Office to receiveyour FAFSA results by the priori-ty funding deadline of April 15.Students meeting the priorityfunding deadline will be consid-ered for all federal student aidprograms including the FederalPell Grant, Direct Loan, WorkStudy, Perkins Loan, andSupplemental Education
Financial aid prioritydeadline approaching
Opportunity Grant programs.Applications received after thepriority deadline will be accept-ed, but funding may be limitedto the Federal Pell Grant andFederal Direct Loan programs.
To log in and sign a FAFSAelectronically, students will usetheir Federal Student Aid (FSA)Username and Password. If aparent signature is needed onthe FAFSA, the parent mustapply for their own FSAUsername and Password. TheFSA ID, a username and pass-word, replaced the FederalStudent Aid PIN. If a student orparent has not yet created anFSA ID, this can be completedonline at www.fsaid.ed.gov. TheFSA User ID is used to submitthe FAFSA and to access allFederal Student Aid websites.
In the “finance” portion ofthe FAFSA, the IRS DataRetrieval Tool (DRT) should beused, if possible, to transfer datafrom a student and/or parentfederal income tax return to theFAFSA. Using the DRT willensure accuracy and possiblyavoid being selected for verifica-tion.
The Financial Aid AwardNotices for returning studentswill be available on CampusConnection in early June.

WPO to present ‘Joseph and theAmazing Technicolor Dreamcoat’
By Courtney HolmanEditor
The Western Plains OperaCompany presents a productionof Andrew Lloyd Webber’s“Joseph and the AmazingTechnicolor Dreamcoat” in AnnNicole Nelson Hall March 31,April 1 and 2 at 7:30 p.m., andApril 3 at 3 p.m.
This musical is about the jour-ney of Joseph. Joseph, his father'sfavorite son, is blessed withprophetic dreams. Sold into slav-ery by his jealous brothers, he istaken to Egypt, where he is pur-chased by Potiphar. Once news ofJoseph's gift to interpret dreamsreaches the Pharaoh, Josephquickly rises through the ranks ofEgyptian society.
Eventually his brothers, havingsuffered the prophesied famine,find themselves groveling at thefeet of the brother they no longerrecognize. Joseph tests his broth-ers repeatedly to determine theirintegrity before finally revealinghimself to his long-lost family.
Joseph is one of the most popu-lar musicals in the world, filledwith energy and excitement.
MSU alumnus Jennifer Brennais the current PR chair for WesternPlains Opera Company.
“This is the first musical thatWestern Plains Opera Companyhas produced in a long time,” shesaid, “and we are very excited thatthe cast is only comprised of MSUstudents and local communitymembers. While the production is
scaled back quite a bit from ourregular fall production of a fullopera, it is still a major undertak-ing in itself.”
MSU students involved areRoyce Brown (Joseph), Alex Hunt(Dan), Christopher Capp (Gad,Pharoah), J’Kobe Wallace(Zebulan), Connor Donovan(crew), Kaylee Capp (crew), and
Maddie Thompson (crew). Other performers include
Michaela Burns (narrator),Kenneth Bowles (Joseph's father,Jacob), Brandon Shaffer (Reuben),Don Waage (Simeon), JohnWitteman (Levi), Damien Walsh(Judah), Jeremiah Farmer(Naphtali), Matthew Dempsey

The Minot State Universitybaseball team got off to a rockystart in its trip to the TucsonInvitational, losing its first threegames, two of which were toNorthern State, a member of theNSIC. But the Beavers bouncedback earning two wins in a rowto cap off their trip over SpringBreak.
In the fourth game of the trip,and the second game beingplayed on Friday, MSU leanedon starting pitcher AustinBerntson for seven innings, themost any player has been on themound so far this season.
"It felt really good because Iwas trying to give our otherpitchers a thing to look at,"Berntson said. "As a senior, itfinally gives me something I canshow to them that will give thema reason to accept the advice Igive now that I came throughand did my job today."
Head coach Brock Wepplerwas also pleased with the wayBerntson pitched as he gave upjust three earned runs in seveninnings while striking out fivebatters.
"He competed," Wepplersaid. "I don't think he walked aguy, he beaned one, but he filledup the zone, threw strikes andattacked guys. That's somethingwe've been stressing over andover again. I thought that wasthe biggest thing for him. He didwell. I'm sure he's exhausted bynow, but he threw really well."
The Beavers offense helpedtheir pitchers by getting a quick6-0 lead in the first two inningsand carrying it to a 10-5 lead inthe eighth inning before reliefsophomore pitcher Wyatt Moorecame into the game. Berntsonhad no reason to underplay theamount of confidence leads likethat provide to him and otherson the mound.
"It's awesome," Berntson said."I love pitching when our team ishitting this well. Hopefully, wecan keep it going all the way. I
think the waywe have beendown here it'sgoing to corre-late into thec o n f e r e n c eseason."
In MinotState's secondwin a big dou-ble in the sev-enth inningfrom freshmanSal Rodriguez(1B) brought inthe second andthird runs ofthe inning tobreak the 4-4tie and sparkwhat wouldbecome a six-run inning forthe Beavers.
It was theonly hitR o d r i g u e zrecorded inthe day, but itmay have been the most impor-tant hit of his freshman seasonso far at Minot State. Battingfourth in the lineup, a spotreserved for players with hisskill set, Rodriguez knows whathe is being asked to do and ishappy to have that responsibili-ty.
"It's just added confidence.He has the confidence in me tostick me in that spot. I knowwhy I'm here. I will definitely tryto do the best for my team; theseguys are like brothers so I try todo everything I can to help uswin."
Minot State was not onlydown at the bottom of the sev-enth inning, but they had beentrailing coming up to bat threetimes throughout the game, eachtime tying the score before theother team could record threeouts.
"It was great," Weppler said."It took a little while for our batsto get going, but the importantthing was every time theyscored, we scored back. We
weren't playing from a four-rundeficit or something, weresponded each time.
"As good as our bats are it's amatter of time before they comethrough. It was important forour pitchers, Kendal [Daniels]and Lane [Biggs] to keep theirguys at bay and give us a chance.That was good to see, good toend the trip on that note."
Jordan Schulz (OF, Jr.) andPaul Vogelsang (C, Jr.) led theBeavers hitting with three hitsand two, respectively. They bothscored two runs for the team aswell.
On the mound junior KendalDaniels and sophomore LaneBiggs pitched the majority of thegame and allowed three runsapiece. Daniels pitched for sixinnings in his first start of theseason while Biggs pitched threeand earned his second win of theyear. Moore came in again toclose the game and earned thefirst MSU save of 2016.
With the 9-6 win overHastings the Beavers will beheading home with a two-gamewin streak under their beltsbefore going to play Upper Iowain less than a week's time.
"[Winning those games was]definitely fun and something weneeded to do," Rodriguez said."Now we can roll in with a fullhead of steam into Upper Iowaand hopefully keep the momen-tum rolling."
Schulz and Vogelsangcapped off their big weeks in thefinal game as they were consis-tent throughout the trip. Schulzrecorded eight hits, eight RBIs,seven runs, two home runs andfour stolen bases whileVogelsang had seven hits, sevenRBIs, three runs, two home runsand two doubles. DespiteVogelsang playing in just threeof the five game he and Schulzcombined for 15 RBIs and 10runs, scoring 25 of the 48 runsrecorded by the Beavers.
Minot State will travel toUpper Iowa to play a four-gameseries starting Friday at noon.
