Once-protested football brings spirit to campusMATTHEW MURPHY

Deputy News Editor

New sports are said to change the campus culturewhen they New sports are said to change the campus cul-ture when they arrive at colleges and universities. Thoughmany were skeptical at rst, football has impacted theamount of school spirit on campus.

Two years ago, students were in the streets of campusprotesting the idea of a football team. Junior Bailey Mer-lin described the protest as a non-violent crowding of thestreets at Berry.

It was a good amount of people [students] justwere in front of Krannert with banners and posterstheywould go from one side of Krannert to Science, they would

just like go in between the cross-walk and block trafcMerlin said.

Merlin said she was surprised when football was rstannounced and made it clear that she did not want thefootball program.

I was really shocked, kind of upset, because I dontthink Berry was founded to be an athletic anythingIdidnt want the football program when I rst heard aboutit Merlin said.

When asked about her biggest concern about football,

Merlin said that her concern was that the focus could leaveacademics and be put on athletics.

the concern would go away from academia and bemore focused on the athletics department, Merlin said.

Merlin now believes that the football program on cam-pus does some good and adds to the school spirit of Berry.

As far as I know, its mostly like people are school spir-ited more so than usual and thats good. Merlin said.

Senior David Ray was also a skeptic of the new footballprogram when it was announced and worried that footballwould bring in a bad crowd to Berry.

I think my biggest concern was with the crowds that, Iguess the football life would attract Ray said.

Ray said he thinks that football has changed the cul -ture on campus, but in a positive way. He said football has

added to the communal aspect of campus life.I think its for the better in a lot of ways, campus com-

munity has denitely improved as far as school spirit andpeopleshowing their support for their school publicly

Ray said.Though he was a skeptic at rst, Ray said he thinks that

the positive aspects of football are in higher number thanthe negative

As Ive seen it [football] started and Ive seen what ishas brought to the table the good far outweighs the bad asfar as that community aspect goes Ray said.

Cecily Crow, Director of Student Activities, also be-lieves that football has had an impact on the culture ofcampus, though she was not certain that the culture haschanged this year.

Crow said there is a heightened sense of excitement oncampus this year, though she did not claim that this was all

because of football.Just in general with the freshman class, and I would

think football has a little to do with this, there does seemto be a sense of excitement and school spirit, Crow said.

Crow said she has seen a positive impact created in theathletic community, and she said she thinks that their showof school spirit inuences the rest of the student body.

Crow also said that at Berry, football does not changethe culture as much because scholarships are not offeredto athletes.

I think that for a football player to come to Berry, theyhave to come to Berry rst because we dont offer scholar-

shipsThe culture was here and will always be here andthe football students just become part of it Crow said.Football seems to have had an effect on campus culture,

but mainly in terms of boosting school spirit.

The largest freshman class in Berry history completedcommunity service projects in Rome and Floyd County onSept. 7 as part of Berrys fteenth annual First Year ServiceDay.

Projects included packing bags of food for Rome Ac-tion Ministries, visiting and playing Bingo with residentsat Golden Living Center, landscaping at Main ElementarySchool, maintenance at Longleaf Pine trail and groundswork at Oak Hill.

Katherine Powell, director of the ofce of rst year ex-perience, said that one of the purposes of First Year Service

Day is to help students forge new friendships and get toknow each other in ways they havent before.

Senior Holly Davis, student coordinator in the ofce ofrst year experience and head rst year mentor, spent thesummer communicating with organizations to coordinatewhere the 36 BCC classes would volunteer. She has been arst year mentor for the past three years and has noticedthat the freshmen return from First Year Service Day withstronger bonds and friendships.

[The students] just come back and theyre a lot closeras a group and a class, Davis said. They work togethereasier. Its just a great experience. They are working togeth-er investing in something else, and they share that com -mon goal, which I think is very benecial to all of them.They have fun with it, too.

Powell said that First Year Service Day is also intendedto help freshmen get a sense of the culture of Berry.

Berry is a school with a really strong culture of ser-

vice. Powell said. We started as a school that was meet-ing a need in the community. Its really wonderful for newstudents to really get what that means right in their rstcouple of weeks on campus.

Freshman Emily McLendon, whose class helped cleanup Myrtle Hill Cemetery in Rome, said that she was grate-

ful for the opportunity to serve the Rome community be-cause most Berry students receive scholarships in order toattend Berry.

First Year Service Day also helps Berry build a positiverelationship with the Rome community. Berry and the or-ganizations which participate exchange thank you notesevery year, and Powell said that the work Berry studentsdo is appreciated.

A lot of people are quite surprised by how much work

our students can do, Powell said. Our students go in andtackle the job and do good work.

Berry collaborates with many of the same organizations

each year. Davis volunteered at Mountain Springs Churchfor the fourth time this year after having gone there withher own BCC 100 class and then serving as a rst year men-tor for the past three years.

A lot of these organizations weve been working withfor several years, and they always look forward to havinga group from Berry, Davis said.

Organic, Berry-grown vegetables wereserved alongside other culinary creationsFriday at Oak Hill & The Martha BerryMuseum, earning about $4,500 for TheBerry Farms Seasons Harvest fundraiser.

Seasons Harvest, a student enterprisefocusing on community sustainable gar-dens, presented the Farm to Table dinnerthat provided fresh vegetables grown byBerry students. Prot from this fundraiserwill supply the Seasons Harvest withplastic mulch implement, an organic weedcontrol alternative to herbicides, ChancesWaite, CEO of The Berry Farms SeasonsHarvest, said.

At the moment, there is no certainty onthe amount of prot, Waite said.

Attendance was $65 per person or $115per couple. There were over a hundredpeople present Friday, Tim Brown, museumdirector at Oak Hill & The Martha BerryMuseum and the coordinator for the event,said.

With any new fundraising event,attracting new attendees is a challenge, butI think they did a wonderful job publicizingand promoting this event, Brown said.

In an effort to maximize event prot-ability for the student enterprise, Oak Hilland Classic Fare Catering provided loca-tion and meal services at discounted prices,Brown said. Usually, Oak Hill charges$2,500 for an event space, but Oak Hill didnot charge Seasons Harvest for the dinner,Brown said.

This rst annual event was invitationonly for faculty, alumni and local commu-nity members, but next year, this event will

be open to students, Waite said.Waite, along with Berry College Presi-

dent Stephen R. Briggs and Dean of Stu-dent Enterprises, Rufus Massey, spoke to

guests on the impact of sustainable agricul-ture dinners and Seasons Harvest growth.

We have made leaps and bounds in thepast two years, Waite said. We cultivateve acres now. We used to have less thanone. We received a grant for a high tun-nel a green house you can drive a trac-tor under so well be able to grow win-ter crops faster and extend the life of ourwinter crops to a certain extent. Were justgrowing incredibly.

The crops grown by Seasons Harvestare sold to assorted community members,

and some of the vegetables have even

made appearances in the Berry dining hall.Sophomore Kaleigh Carpenter, a

former assistant gardener for SeasonsHarvest, noted the increased involvementfrom locals in the Community SupportedAgriculture (CSA) program, which allowscommunity members to purchase shares ofthe farm and receive their allotted crops.

This past year, 36 members bought ahalf-share or a full-share of the harvest,Carpenter said. In a CSA they sign a con-tract and pay up front, and there is noguarantee how much produce they will

receive, she said.

If a tornado came and destroyed every-thing theyd get nothing, but if we have agood harvest they would receive more,Carpenter said.

The success of the CSA is intertwined inthe relationship between the local commu-nity and Seasons Harvest.

[The CSA] is a good way for faculty,staff and Romans to invest in our enter-prise. We work hard because we know thepeople supporting us. Were supportingeach other. Its community building, andits our main source of income, Carpenter

said.

Viking Fusion productions nominatedfor three national broadcasting awards

Three Viking Fusion produc-tions are national nalists in the2013 College Broadcasters, Inc.

National Student ProductionAwards.

Episode four of the televisionweb series Going Up, produced

by 2013 alumnus Nathan Suttonand junior Glenn Garrido-Olivar,was nominated for Best Vodcast-Television. Episode ve was nom-inated for Best General Entertain-ment Program- Television. Thevideo Roll Call, which wasproduced, directed and edited

by senior Josy Roman, was nomi-nated for Best Vodcast-Television.

Garrido-Olivar felt honored tobe nominated for the awards.

I felt like it was a great accom-plishment when I completed the

project, and then to have beennominated means that I had donea good job and that people actu-ally liked what I was coming upwith, Garrido-Olivar said.

Roman agreed and said thatshe felt the nomination was a bighonor.

Going Up is about two peo-ple who are stuck in an elevatorand features ashbacks about the

background of one character as heseeks revenge for an event whichoccurred in his past. The rst epi-sode of Going Up was releasedin April of this year. Five episodesof the show were released.

Garrido-Olivar said he origi-nally thought that Going Upwould be a comedy show but thenadded more dramatic elementsand the nal product became ahybrid of these two ideas.

Roll Call, which wasreleased in February of this year,features Eric McDowell, profes-sor of mathematics and computerscience, singing a song he wrotelisting the names of famous math-

ematicians. It previously wonsecond place in the Video/Broad-cast Production for Student Two-Year/Small College category atthe Broadcast Education Associa-tion Festival of Media Arts.

McDowell has collaboratedwith Viking Fusion on severalother productions, includingJammy Pants and The Deriva-

tive Rag. An animated videowhich he helped with will be onViking Fusion before the end ofthe month.

The winners will be announcedat the National Student Elec-

tronic Media Convention Oct. 31through Nov. 2 in San Antonio.

Steven Hames, advisor forViking Fusion and technologist

with the department of communi-cation, is the awards coordinatorfor the convention. He has beencoordinating with judges and fac-ulty and staff at other schools tohelp plan the event.

Ive noticed over my time hereat Berry that general education istypically frowned upon by moststudents. Many wish to simplystart college taking classes thatare applicable to their major; this,however, may not be as good asit seems.

Berry is a liberal arts insti-tution, and this seems to be aconcept that goes missed bymost. Unlike other colleges anduniversities, Berry has its ownliberal arts curriculum that is

centered on the idea that a stu-dent can be well-rounded andexperience all of the subjects toa certain degree by working thehead, heart and hands. This styleof education differs from a morevocational style, which limitsstudents to a type of training fora future career.

For some reason or another,modern students seem to choosecollege as a means of gettingthe career of their choice. Whenwe limit college to a vocationalapproach such as this, we arelooking at college with a ratherselsh approach, neglecting thecommunity of people that sur-

round us. This is because a voca-tional training is only aimed at

helping the student to grow inone way: in their work-placeabilities. But a liberal arts edu-cation, at least in its true form,

is not supposed to make bet-ter workers but instead betterpeople.

People are often complain-ing that this world is a terribleplace, and I know that I havecomplained about it myself, butcould the preferred system ofhigher education in this world

be worsening the issues?Sorry for bringing up Alexis

de Tocqueville, but he did writequite a bit about American soci-ety. One of the topics that Toc-queville spends time on this inhis work, Democracy in Amer-ica, is American individual-ism, which essentially says that

Americans naturally keep tothemselves. Though on the sur-face this may not sound prob-lematic, this individualism candivide societies and crumblenations if it is allowed to spreadtoo far. By focusing too much ona career-centered education, weare focusing on our own per-sonal gains and neglecting therest of society, heightening theissue of individualism.

As stated before, a strictlyvocational form of education lim-its one to the training of the headand possibly the hands (thoughno guarantee). The heart compo-nent is not usually included in

the vocational education, but itis this component that can be so

worthwhile.The heart component of a

Berry education teaches a stu-dent to go beyond themselves, a

concept that is largely neglectedin the rst world. When onetruly goes beyond themselves,they see an entire world that issuffering. They see people beingkilled based on their ethnicityor race. They see disease con-suming people that do not haveaccess to modern medical care.They see oppressive governmentthat strip people of the rightsthat we consider necessary in theWestern world.

We have a chance here at Berryto have an education that equipsus in several ways. Our headswill be lled with knowledge ofall different types, making us be

able to think on our toes and beready to think through any situ-ation that we are faced with. Ourhands will be skilled and readyto perform whatever task nec-essary, and our hearts will careenough to drive us to make realchange.

This heart aspect of our edu-cation can propel us to changethe world, but we rst must go

beyond ourselves to truly care,and a Berry education can behelpful in this process. I encour-age you all to embrace yourBerry education and see thatthere is a bigger world than justyou and I, a world that needs our

head, heart, and hands.

OPINIONSPAGE 4, CAMPUS CARRIER SEPTEMBER 12, 2013

The Carrier editorial reflects a consensus of the The Carriers editorial board.

Can Berry handle this many?

Going to the Dining Hallat 12 p.m. is only a goodidea if you want at leasttwenty people to run intoyou. Its also a good ideaif you dont want to nd aplace to sit and eat. There arehigh chances that you canfeel claustrophobic at somepoint anywhere on campus.Its great that there are somany people attending thiscollege, but is there enoughroom for everyone?

With football at Berrynow, the number of studentshas exponentially grown.There are so many studentsthat any buildings sizeseems limited. Walk intoDana and you will see peo-ple having to live in formerstudy rooms. Those peopledo not even have closets. Itall seems ridiculous. Berrycurrently has 2,223 studentsenrolled. Berry should be

thinking about building newresidence halls, and fast. Itseems that Berrys currentstructure cannot hold all ofthese students.

Some people thought theycould x this issue of over-crowding by making all ofthe residence halls, besidesFord, co-ed. That may givemore options on where tolive for the young men, butthis did not completely xthe problem. Unfortunately,lack of residence rooms isnot the only issue here.

Do not ever count onbeing able to park close toyour residence hall. Counton having to walk half amile. The exercise is great,

do not mistake that. Its justthat with more studentsthan Berry has ever had,more parking spaces seemnecessary. Does Berry havea better idea to make thiswork somehow?

This problem is frustrat-ing for most of the studentshere. We are all looking for-ward to the day when Berrywill make new changes toexpand the campus. But arethey going to make thosechanges? Hopefully soon.

We have surpassed Ber-rys goal of students by 123.But with the goal of alwaysbeing at 2,100 students, itjust seems odd that theyhave delayed providingmore space for students overthe years, even though thereis a possibility of studentstransferring out. We mighthave the largest campus inthe world, but we still have

a problem everywhere withnding places to put the stu-dents. Berry is a great placeto be, but its hard to thinkabout that as youre trying tosqueeze your way throughKrannert or the Dining Hall,running into everyone.

This is not a problem thatonly Berry has. Most collegesand universities strugglewith nding where to putstudents because studentrates keep going up everyyear, leading that school tofeel overcrowded. Berry is a

great place to be. Lets hopethat they can make it evenbetter by expanding resi-dence halls, parking lots andthe academic buildings.

It all started on the rst Wednesday

of classes. I walked into my room andimmediately I could tell something wasnot right. Usually, when I took a stepinto my room, I dove for the covers orany blanket I could get my hands on; myroom was an icebox, but I like it that way.However, Wednesday afternoon, insteadof walking into the inviting cool blast ofair from my room, I walked right intostagnant, uncomfortable heat.

I tried turning on the air conditioningunit for 20 minutes, to no avail. Men-tally, I was imagining my roommate andmyself three months down the road stillwithout a functioning air conditioningunit, under the covers for an entirely dif-ferent reason than we had been the day

before.I didnt know whether I should start

crying or if I should begin to scream abouteverything that has gone wrong with myroom(s) in Friendship. (Friendship is oneof the only dorms that have not been ren-ovated in a couple of decades or so Ive

been told).Instead of doing either of the above,

I did what I have been told to do for thepast three years; I went to my RA.

As usual, my RA was as calm as couldbe. She carefully listened to my crazedrant, and after I had nished talkingabout how everything that could gowrong went wrong in Friendship, shetold me that the unit would be xed, butunfortunately not that day. It was alreadyafter 5 p.m. by the time I discovered the

broken unit so we would not be able to

get a hold of anyone from the physicalplant. However, she promised that shewould call rst thing in the morning.

Despite her call to the physical plant,our unit still was not xed the followingday. That afternoon I tried calling as wellto see if I could get an answer as to whenour unit would be xed. No luck.

When my roommate found out aboutthe unfortunate news, even she called.Some how or another she was able to getan answer.

The news was bad: the main compo-nent of our unit was broken.

Apparently there were two options.Either physical plant would have to nda replacement part or they would be put-

ting in a brand new unit.It was a nightmare all over again.

Instead of being a one-day x, the num-ber of days it would take to get a replace-ment part, much less an entire unit, wasunforeseeable.

My roommate and I went to sleepfrustrated and hot, all with the buzz of a

box fan in the background.I woke up, went to class, did all thenormal stuff during my day and triednot to think about the air conditioningsituation.

My roommate was in the room whenI got back the following day. Though ourunit had not been xed, it had obviously

been tampered with, as the cover to theunit was lying on the oor.

About 10 minutes later, two staffmembers from the physical plant arrivedwith, lo and behold, a replacement part.

My roommate and I would haveimmediately started dancing out of pure

joy had we not been in the company oftwo men we didnt know.

The men explained that it had taken solong for us to get an answer back becausethey werent able to determine the causeof the problem until the afternoon of theday before.

Once the men had replaced the mal-functioning part and turned the poweron, cool air lled our room once again.

To be honest, those three days whenour air conditioning unit was broken,I complained a lot. I was mad that yetanother thing had gone wrong in thedorm I was living in. My automaticresponse, as is for most students, was to

blame Berry. After this experience, I havecome to realize how wrong I am in doingthat. What I, and Berry students in gen-eral, dont realize is that, however madwe are at the institution for somethingthat has gone wrong (whether it be a bro-

ken air conditioning unit, faulty furnitureor even problems with our schedules),there are actual people trying to rem-edy those mistakes. Instead of blowing afuse the moment something goes wrongand being short with the staff trying tox that problem, we should give them achance to remedy the situation. I felt badfor complaining about the situation andthe physical plant as a whole.

Before going on our next rant aboutanother issue at Berry, we should con-sider the individuals whose jobs are to xthose issues. They are not evil; they arenot trying to delay a x on purpose. Theyare people who deserve to be treatedwith respect.

The Fault in our StarsBy John Green

This novel is the #1 New York Timesbestseller. The Fault in our Stars is

about two star-crossed lovers, HazelGrace and Augustus Waters, whomeet at Cancer Support Group. Thisis the fourth solo novel that Green haswritten, published in January 2012.They started lming for The Fault inour Stars in August 2013, with Green

present on set, being able to watchthe process. The lm is anticipated tocome out sometime in 2014.

[This book] was my book, in theway my body was my body andmy thoughts were my thoughts. The Fault in our Stars, pg. 34

This novel of life and death isone where you feel like youre

with the characters and are in thestory. That isnt the only captivat-ing aspect of The Fault in ourStars. In all of Greens novels,he creates strong and intellectualcharacters. The main characters,Hazel and Augustus, show what itmeans to really live life and love,even though they both have ter-minal diseases. These two charac-ters have universal themed ques-tions Will I be remembered? WillI leave a mark on this world?

These are questions we allhave, yet we rarely see them beingquestioned by young adults in ayoung adult novel. We usually seeparanormal romance with weak

characters. This is a book whereyou will nd yourself questioningwhat life is really about, laughing,crying and falling in love with allof the characters.

You know that one book thatno matter how many times youread it, youre lled with this cer-tain zeal that it feels like its yours?Thats how The Fault of ourStars is for me, and many otherreaders. There are very few bookswhere it completely breaks yourheart. After I read this, all I wantedto do was to contact John Greenand quote him: It was a privilegeto have my heart broken by you.

Want to laugh and cry for 313pages? Buy The Fault in our Stars.

Good Old War delivers indie-folk soundEVERETT REIFF

Producer, Electric Feel

MADI MCEVER

Entertainment Editor

Good Old War, a Philadelphia-based

indie-folk band, performed on the sidelawn of The Cage Athletic Center forKCABs rst concert of the year.

The trio, inspired by the likes of TheBeatles and The Rolling Stones, enter-tained approximately 300 Berry studentswith their diverse collection of songs.

Senior Christian Turner and juniorEverett Reiff, co-producers of Internetradio show Electric Feel, had the oppor-tunity to sit down with guitarist andvocalist Dan Schwartz and ask him a fewquestions about their music and experi-ences as a band.

Electric Feel: You guys are in the middleof writing, right? What is some inspira-tion for this new album coming up?Dan

: It changes all the time. For us, itsalways been anywhere from the pop andsinger-songwriter type things that wecome from, and the more old-fashionedkind of vocal bands like The Beatles andThe Stones and Simon & Garfunkel, andthats a good basis for us. But then, itcan go anywhere from that of the AphexTwin. It really depends on what every-one is listening to. Im more on the clas-sic rock side. Keith is more into Nilssonand more classical music. It comes fromso many different places; its alwayshard to narrow it down.

Electric Feel: Has there ever been a spe-cic song that you guys have recordedthat youre like, Thats the sound weare going for?Dan: Yeah, but its song by song, youknow? One song we want to do it withthis kind of beat, this kind of feel. But it

never goes on for more than one song.

Electric Feel: What are you going to dodifferently with this album?Dan: More production is happening. Wearent limiting ourselves to what we canand cant do live. On the other records,a lot of the attention has been on if wecould do it live, and there is not muchthat is playable. This time around, we areletting our minds wander a little bit andwe are letting each other try differentthings. We are adding more instruments,

but all stuff is still played by us.

Electric Feel: How do you go about writ-ing new material?Dan: One person brings in a pretty com-plete song idea, and then usually fromthere, Keith and I work on it and learnhow to play it with the vocal and guitarand just kind of get the feel from it. Bythe time we bring it to Tim, it just comestogether.

Electric Feel: How did you come up withyour name, Good Old War?Dan: That is a little bit of all of our names.Keiths last name is Goodwin, theresthe good. Tims last name is Arnold,theres the old, and mine is Schwartz,theres the war.

Electric Feel: Who are some of your bestfriends that you have toured with?Dan: Well, denitely Circa Survive aregood friends of ours. We have playedwith Anthony Green and those guys havehelped us get started in a lot of ways. We

just did an album with Anthony Greenfor his new solo record. We just did anew one with him called Young Legsthat will be released soon.

Apple releases vibrant new iPhone designJUSTIN DAVIS

Asst. Photojournalism Editor

The world of the iPhone became muchmore colorful on Tuesday as Apple intro-duced an entirely new member to its phonefamily.

The iPhone 5C marks the rst time thatApple Inc. will sell a cheaper version of itstrademark iPhone. The plastic-backed cellphone will be available in ve colors: white,pink, yellow, blue and green.

Alongside the brand new 5C, Apple Inc.also unveiled the update to the premiumversion of their phone, dubbed the iPhone5S, which also got a new option: a goldencolor, which joins the white and blackoptions that have dened the iPhone linefor several years now.

The 5C mostly has the same specs asthe current iPhone 5, including the A6 pro-cessor, high-speed LTE cell service and an8-megapixel camera.

S, however, clearly stands for speed,and the new A7 chip in the 5S has plenty of

it. It is over twice as fast as its predecessorin terms of both processing and graphicspower, making for super-fast app usage andunprecedented 3D graphics for a phone.

In a video released on Tuesday by AppleInc., Every single component, every pro-

cess has been considered and measured tomake sure that its truly useful and that itactually enhances the users experience,

Jonathan Ive, Senior Vice President of

Design, said.The 5S, which is built with an aluminum

enclosure just like its predecessor, also gota brand new feature: a ngerprint scanner.

The new sensor, located in the Home but-ton, allows users to unlock the phone andenter passwords using their ngerprintrather than a less secure passcode.

Your ngerprint is one of the bestpasswords in the world, said Dan Riccio,Apples Senior Vice President of Hardware

Engineering. It made perfect sense to cre-ate a simple, seamless way to use it as apassword.

The premium iPhones camera also gotan upgrade, gaining a dual-LED TrueTone ash and a much improved sen-sor. The camera also includes a new slowmotion video mode, sure to make for aplethora of new videos on YouTube of dogsshaking off water in slow, moisture-lledrolls.

Fitness enthusiasts may want to takenote of the nal new feature in the 5S: a

brand new chip dedicated to detectingmotion, which brands such as Nike arealready planning to use in tness basedapps that track physical activity.

Both phones will be available in the U.S.

beginning on Sept. 20. The 5C will be avail-able in 16GB and 32GB capacities for $99and $199, respectively. The 5S will also beavailable in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB optionsfor $199, $299 and $399, all of which requirea two-year contract.

RIFF showcases unique flms, draws sizeable audienceCOMMENTARY BY

MICAH BHACHECHCopy Editor

Last Thursday at 11 p.m. the RomeInternational Film Festival (RIFF) kickedoff its tenth festival. The festival, span-ning three days, showed dozens of inde-pendent movies at the DeSoto Theater and

Rome Area History Museum.Volunteering for a two hour blockmeant that I could attend whatever lm

blocks I wanted with the mere ourish ofmy volunteer badge.

I made a special point to see as much asI could of the student lm block on Satur -day. All of the movies played were prod-ucts of Berry students except for one froma group of students from New Orleans.

Unfortunately, I missed a lot of the stu-dent lm block. However I saw MissedConnections by alumna Rachael Wheelerand seniors Brian Russell and EmilyFaulkner as well as Routes and Rou-tines by Alumni James Clark and CarinaBroomet and senior Josy Roman.

Though I didnt get to see all of thelms, the atmosphere in the venue felt

like exactly what I wanted from an inde-pendent lm festival. I climbed up a nar-row staircase behind a dismissible door in

a museum to get to a dimly lit room fullof mismatched chairs pointing to a bigscreen. For whatever its worth, it felt asartsy as I could have hoped.

Both lms themselves were impres-sive and earned a lot of praise and interestfrom the crowd during the question andanswer session. Both lms had recogniz-ably Berry locations and props, but I was

impressed by the amount creativity dem-onstrated to generate multiple unique sto-ries within The Bubble.

From that showing I went to theDeSoto Theater for the Georgia lm block.The movies there were striking in theexcellence of their production as well asthe originality of their material. Within anhour I saw a gruesome retelling of LittleRed riding Hood (Red), a story of adesperate man and the robot son he cre-ated (Sol) and an adorable documentaryabout an old lady that made cakes for peo-ple (The Cake Lady).

These movies did not struggle with thesame limitations that their student-madecounterparts did. They had the budgetand the means to use more varied settingsand techniques (lighting, sound, etc.).

However, they were not so high prolethat they suffered from the depressing lackof originality of big budget blockbusters.

They were, in short, what I wanted from alm festival. A lot of them were strikinglyweird, but in the most human, captivatingkind of ways.

One of my personal favorite lms,Buried Treasure, won Best NarrativeShort. The lighting in that one was fantas-tic, and the lead actor was fantastic. TheCake Lady, possibly the most adorable

thing Ive ever seen, won Best Documen-tary Short. Best Narrative Feature wentto Against the Grain, and Best Docu-

mentary Feature to The 25,000 Mile LoveStory.

At the end of each lm block the audi -ence was given the opportunity to rankthe lm that they enjoyed the most, andHollywood to Dollywood won theAudience Award.

My actual volunteer work was mini-mal. Basically, I had to do almost no workand was able to hang around downtownenjoying some of the most original cinemathat Ive seen in a long time.

In front of a roaring crowd of about6,700 fans, the Vikings football team madehistory last Saturday as they played therst ofcial intercollegiate football gamein school history. Despite the support fromthe enormous crowd, the Vikings fell intheir rst game to the Maryville CollegeScots by a score of 37-0.

Despite the loss, we had a great feel-ing for Berrys rst game, Vikings headfootball coach Tony Kunczewski said. Theatmosphere here is tremendous. Hopefullythe guys took it all in. I cant say enoughabout all the people at Berry and the folksin Rome.

The contest opened up with the Vikingskicking the ball off to the Scots to beginthe game on defense. The Vikings defenseproved strong for the Scots rst drive,causing the Scots to turn the ball over ondowns after the Scots drove nine plays to

the Vikings 31 yard line.The offense did not start out as hot, as

the Vikings were forced to punt the ballaway on their rst possession.

Although the Vikings had a solid defen-sive start, they were unable to stop theScots veteran offense a second time as itonly took the Scots 10 plays, 79 yards andthree minutes and 50 seconds to score theirrst touchdown. They then led the Vikings7-0.

The Vikings began their second drivewith a 16 yard pass to their own 38 yard-line, however that pass was the only rstdown the Vikings were able to get beforethey had to punt it away again.

The Scots were unable to score again inthe rst quarter, but they scored their sec-

ond touchdown only 47 seconds into thesecond quarter on a drive that took them10 plays and 65 yards.

For the next 10 minutes of the game, theVikings and Scots battled back and forth,forcing each other to punt and turn the

ball over on downs until Maryville scoredagain with 4:20 left in the second quarter,now leading the Vikings 21-0.

After the halftime break, the Vikingstook the kick to begin the second half withpossession, but were unable to capitalizeon good eld position and were forced topunt. Nine plays and 78 yards later, theScots found their way into the end zoneonce again to increase their lead to 27-0,however, the Scots missed the extra point.

Two possessions later, the Vikings began

to sustain their longest drive of the game,going 37 yards over 12 plays before beingstopped on fourth and one at the Scots 35yard line.

The Scots held the ball to end the thirdquarter, gaining signicant ground offof big plays and a Vikings penalty due toan illegal block below the waist. Only 24seconds into the fourth quarter, Maryvillescored again to put the game out of reach

with a score of 34-0.After another Vikings possession and

another punt by Vikings punter, freshmanMitchell Blanchard, Maryville kicked therst eld goal of the game to further theirlead 37-0.

Following the eld goal, the Vikingsstarting quarterback, freshman Adam San-din was replaced by fellow freshman quar-terback Sandon Mims. To this point, Sandinhad thrown 13 completions on 24 attemptsfor 123 yards and no interceptions.

Mims debut seemed promising as hethe Vikings drive 52 yards to the Maryvillethree yard line on their nal drive of thegame. The Vikings were unable to capital-ize on their most successful drive of thegame as freshman running back KevinChristmas was stuffed on fourth and one.Christmas lead the Vikings with 10 rushedfor 36 yards.

Once the Scots got the ball back, theymanaged to hold on to the ball to run therest of the game clock out, nalizing theirwin.

The score was very deceiving, Mimssaid. I think the game was a lot closer thanthe score made it seem. The defense heldtheir ground for the most part. Maryvillesoffense did not have many big plays. I also

think the offense did pretty well for ourrst game together as a team.

Vikings freshman linebacker AnthonyBatey had a game-high 10 tackles, and fel-low freshman linebacker Preston Stewartadded seven.

I think we took the challenge great,overall, freshman linebacker Matt Fari-nella said. We fought hard on both sidesof the ball, despite what the score said.We also have a lot of work to be done toimprove our game. On the defensive sideof the ball, we need to execute better andplay faster. Coming into the game with anessentially all freshman team we didntknow how fast the game would be. Thespeed is not something we can simulate atpractice as well as seeing it in the game.

The Vikings team is predominantlyfreshmen. When team practices started, 95of the 108 players on the active roster werelisted as freshmen, and Kunczewski saidthere would be no roster cuts.

We knew it was going to be tough,Kunczewski said. We were a team ofpractically all freshmen in a new programagainst a veteran team. We purposelyrecruited young players, though, so that wecould develop the guys across four years.

Kunczewski not only takes pride in the

fact that the team is full of young talent,but also that the players all play to their

potential.I love the effort in these guys, Kuncze-wski said. Theres no quitting with them.You could tell there were 18-year -lds goingagainst 21- and 22-year-olds, but theyplayed tremendously. I would have liked toat least score a touchdown. Just three and ahalf weeks ago, this team didnt ofciallyexist yet. Put that into perspective.

Despite the loss, Kunczewski is lookingforward to the rest of the season and hashigh hopes for the season.

You have to understand its always aprocess, Kunczewski said. Hopefullynot the same process as when I was atLaGrange, though. We started out at 0-10my rst season there, but by year three wewent 9-1 and won the conference champi-onship. Its always a process.

The Vikings will take the eld again thisSunday at 2 p.m. against the LaGrange Col-lege Panthers Junior Varsity at DarlingtonHigh School Stadium.

This upcoming week against LaGrangeshould be much more of an even playingeld, Mims said. Hopefully we will beable to make it a good game and nish withthe rst win in Berry College history.

Lady Vikings win two more, now stand at 4-1DANIEL HAWES

Asst. Sports Editor

Opening this season with a record of 3-1, the LadyVikings are off to a solid start for the season.

The Lady Vikings took the eld this past weekend inthe Fort Rapids Tournament in Columbus, Ohio, againstthe Capital University Crusaders and the Denison Univer-sity Big Red. The Lady Vikings lost the rst match 3-1, butwon the second match 2-1.

In the last 15 minutes of the rst match, the Lady Cru-saders added two more goals to their total to pull ahead ofthe Lady Vikings and win the match. Sophomore forwardSara Dillon scored off an assist from senior forward Molly

Johnson in the 53rd minute of the match. Freshman goal-keeper Melissa Sanchez recorded ve saves in the game to

bring her season total to nine.The match against the Big Red ended in a 2-1 victory

with goals being scored by junior forward Rachel LeRoyand freshman midelder Maggie Midkiff. In addition tothe goals scored by LeRoy and Midkiff, Sanchez recordedve more saves to bring her season total up to 14.

We denitely picked it up from the game on Friday,said Anna McNulty, a sophomore center midelder. Werelaxed a bit more and played with more focus.

McNulty also noted that the team began to play witha greater sense of composure after the loss to the LadyCrusaders.

Sophomore outside back Jillian McDonnell said that thehighlight of the game for her was that the Lady Vikings

were able to score some difcult goals.Both of the goals were scored from pretty far out,

McDonnell said. Rachel [LeRoy] slammed hers into the

net from about 35 yards out. It was just one of those goalswhere everyone jumped up from the bench and startedcheering.

Following LeRoys goal, Midkiff scored a game-win-ning goal late to give the Lady Vikings their third win ofthe season.

I am so excited for the rest of the season, Midkiff said.It is looking very promising. We have already tied thenumber of wins that we had last season, and we are onlyfour games into the season.

Practice is also a huge part of the Lady Vikings success.Practice certainly does pay off, McNulty said. The

second goal was one of the plays we have been practicingfor several weeks.

When the Lady Vikings played Agnes Scott Collegeon Wednesday, they won 3-1, bringing their record to 4-1.Goals came from Midff, Dillon, and senior midelderLindsey Williams. With these goals, both Midkiff and Dil-lon are tied for the lead in goals scored with three each.

On two of the goals scored, the Lady Vikings were ableto record assists from senior midelder Kim Fischer andsophomore midelder Tessa Piety. Senior forward Molly

Johnson leads the team with three assists.The Lady Vikings will be back in action against the East

Texas Baptist University Tigers tomorrow at 2 p.m. in the
