For the full history of the CMU vs. WMU football rivalry, see page 2.
Aside from CMU (7-4, 5-2 MAC) playing its biggest rival, senior wide receiver Titus Davis and senior linebacker Justin Cherocci have Broncos for brothers.
In addition, both WMU soph-omore Corey Davis and redshirt sophomore Lucas Cherocci have the same numbers and positions as their older brothers.
“(We’ve) been talking a little bit (this week),” Justin Cherocci said. “But then we had to stop talking. It was just getting intense.”
For Cherocci, the rivalry goes beyond sibling competition.
“This is the game I’ve had circled,” Cherocci said. “I’ve got a little personal vendetta with them, so we’re going to be ready. It’s going to be a dogfight. We are not losing.”
Titus Davis is having another record-breaking year as a Chip-pewa, his younger brother has more receptions and yards and has the same number of touchdowns as his maroon and gold-clad older brother.
“It has been an emotional time for me,” Davis said. “To be able to end my final game at Kelly/Shorts (Stadium) with a win over (WMU) would mean everything.”
The team that wins Saturday is guaranteed to finish above the other in the Mid-American Con-ference West Division standings and would likely be invited to a more prestigious bowl game.
CMU and WMU come into the game with 14 combined wins. This will be the third time the two teams have 14 or more wins between them heading into a game against each other. The last time that happened was in
1980.“We
want to keep the lion in the cage and play with controlled rage,” said Head Coach Dan Enos.
The Broncos come to Mount Pleasant on a five-game winning streak with an average margin of victory of 22.4 points per game.
“It doesn’t really matter in these types of games,” Enos said. “You can throw it out the win-dow when 1:04 (p.m.) hits and that ball gets teed off. It’s going to be
very intense.”With Toledo’s win over
Bowling Green University on Wednesday, the Chippewas are mathematically out of the MAC West race.
A loss for WMU Saturday would also eliminate the Bron-cos from the MAC West title
game. “Anytime you play
Western Michigan it’s going to be a
dogfight,” said senior of-
fensive
tackle Andy Phillips. “There just happens to be a little bit more on the line than usual.”
Adding fuel to the game, both teams feature a hard-nosed run-
ning back looking to bounce back from injury.
WMU freshman Jarvion Frank-
lin, who is second in the nation with 22 rushing scores and seventh in yardage with 1,356 yards, suffered an ankle injury last week against Eastern Michi-gan University but is expected to play Saturday.
CMU senior rusher Thomas Rawls has not played an entire game since the Nov. 18 loss against Ball State.
Enos went to Rawls three times for 16 yards last week
against Miami (Ohio) before being taken out
as a “precautionary” measure.
“I played a few plays and it was
great to be out there and get the feel of game action,” Rawls
said.Rawls
averages 171.17 rushing yards
per game in his six full games
this year.

No moment of the 2014 Central Michigan University football season has been more anticipated than the one that has now finally arrived. The Central Michigan University vs.
Western Michigan University football game is a passionate battle for the Victory Cannon Trophy and a year’s worth of bragging rights.

INSIDE LIFELIFE IN brIEF
MEtro
Showing Western Michigan University up on and off the field—that is the prize. Sportsmanship, community, spirit and blood are a few time-honored ways the Mount Pleasant community and Central Michigan University can stand on top this weekend.
“As much as we say we hate Western, people really love a good, old-fashioned feud,” said Wyandotte senior Sarah Haggerty. “It’s like Michigan and Michigan State.”
That rivalry has been known to leave one team bitter, but Haggerty believes that unlike
Michigan State University vs. University of Michigan, CMU is still a spirited bunch of fans at the end of the day.
“Win or lose, we are still a community,” Haggerty said.
Spirit, pride and Western Weekend brings it together in a boil. Traditions for football games are given their own CMU twist, and people can participate in the tradition of feuding with WMU with these classic examples:

ways students unite to show
By Jacob KahnStaff Reporter
When Western Michigan Univer-sity last squared off at Kelly/Shorts Stadium in 2012, all eyes were glued to the scoreboard, except for the police on guard.
They have their own scoreboard for Western Weekend, racking up arrests and citations instead of touchdowns and field goals.
Jeff Browne, Mount Pleasant Police Department public informa-tion officer, said officers only want to maintain a safe environment this year. He encourages both students, alumni and visiting Broncos to “drink responsibly, and if you see somebody in need, call us.”
Historically, Western Weekend has been one of the most active weekends in Mount Pleasant. Central Michigan
University Police Lt. Cameron Was-sman said although the last two times CMU has hosted WMU, the weekend was quieter.
“2012 and 2010 have been much more tame than years passed,” Was-sman said. “It’s nothing like what it was 25 years ago.”
Wassman attributes this to the es-calation of police enforcement during the weekend.
“We started bringing in more of-ficers,” Wassman explains, “and now you’ve got an officer on about every street corner.”
Browne said there will be officers from all local departments operating under MPPD’s authority this week-
end. State Troopers will be present in the student section, as well as depart-ments from Midland, Alma, St. Louis, Shepherd and Big Rapids.
The Department of Public Safety is reminding residents of laws and ordinances to maintain a safe environ-ment for those who live in and visit our community.
Both Wassman and Browne agree that having Western Weekend during the end of November helps to curb crowds and criminal activity because of the cold.
The change in the severity of West-ern Weekend is due to a multitude of factors including the number of of-ficers, the cold, and what Browne de-
scribes as a cultural change. Browne has observed people beginning to realize that crime during Western Weekend is “a black eye” for CMU.
“It tarnishes CMU’s reputation,” Browne said. “That hurts me, it hurts you. It even hurts somebody with a degree from CMU already, because people just remember bad press about the school.”
Visiting students have been a problem in the past, especially during Welcome Weekend, where other universities emigrate people who aren’t always respectful of CMU’s reputation. However, Browne said alcohol violations are not unique to one school, and most of the WMU students are usually respectful.
“Of all weekends, this is not the time to try something,” Wassman said. “Your chances of getting caught are much higher”.
By Grant LefaiveStaff Reporter
Western Weekend will bring several temporary changes to Central Michi-gan University’s Office of Residence Life as resident assistants and the CMU Police Department take steps to maintain order on campus.
“First and foremost, we want people to be safe,” said Michelle Veith associ-ate director of residence life.
Depending on the weather Friday and Saturday, upwards of 4,000 guests are expected to stay in CMU residence halls. Many will come from Western Michigan University and beyond to enjoy the highly anticipated CMU vs. WMU football game at 1 p.m. on Saturday From 8 p.m. Friday to 7 a.m. Sunday, the only way to enter any
residence hall will be via the main entrance. All side doors will be locked to control foot traffic, each of which is manned by a resident assistant, multicultural advisor or student volunteer. Should students attempt to enter through a side door, they will be redirected to the main entrance.
All guests during Western Weekend will be required to wear wristbands, which will be given out when the guest first arrives. Photo ID must be presented to the desk attendant in order to receive a wristband.
Students must keep Student IDs and keys on their persons as they enter or exit residence halls. With the exception of Barnes and Robinson, ev-ery room will be limited to six guests. Robinson and Barnes, due to spacial constraints, will be limited to three.
Guests can arrive and depart at any point during the weekend, but check-ins will begin 8 p.m., Friday.
Thorpe Hall in south campus received 348 guests during the most recent Western game in 2012, the most of any residence hall.
Amy DiNovo, the resident assistant on the third floor of Thorpe, will be on duty during Western Weekend.
“That’s why I took the job, to make sure that everyone stays safe,” DiNovo said.
She said she doesn’t want any residents feeling pressured to go out just because of the reputation of the weekend, and other safety officials agreed.
“Our primary concern is always the safety of students, staff, and fac-ulty,” said CMUPD Cpt. Fred Harris
of the Central Michigan University Police Department.
On Friday and Saturday, the police presence will increase to maintain order before, during, and after the football game. Mount Pleasant Police, Saginaw Chippewa Tribal Police, and State troopers will be present during the football game and tailgate.
The number of MIP and other related charges issued that day will be determined by the size and energy of the tailgate crowd, Harris said. Good weather will bring more students, and guests and possibly more incidents.
During the last game against WMU in 2012, nasty weather kept students indoors and mostly out of harms way. Only 16 MIPs and six disorderly cita-tions were handed out by CMU Police throughout the weekend.

The Isabella County Sheriff’s Department responded to a two-car traffic crash Thursday on E. Deerfield Road at S. Lincoln Road.
A vehicle driven by Joshua Betts, of Mount Pleasant, was traveling east on Deerfield Road and did not stop at a stop sign on Lincoln Road.
Betts hit a vehicle driven by Joseph Recker, also of Mount Pleasant.
Both vehicles ran off the road and hit a tree.
Betts was trapped in his car and had to be extricated by the Mount Pleasant Fire Department. He sustained leg injuries and other possible injuries as a result of the accident.
He was flown by LifeNet to Covenant Hospital. None of his injuries are expected to be life-threatening.
Recker, and two children riding in the vehicle with him, received minor injuries. They were transported to McLaren-Central Michigan by MMR.

Grand Rapids senior Mariah Prowoznik has been named Editor-In-chief of Central Michigan Life for the spring 2015 semester.
Prowoznik previously held several leadership positions at CM Life including lead designer and visual director, as well as working as a campaign designer for CM Life’s Advertising Department.
She will graduate in May with a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts degree with a concentration in graphic design and a minor in advertising and art history.
“I am very honored to carry on the traditions before me and to work in collaboration with many student groups on campus,” Prowoznik said.
Prowoznik began her 2011 as a Page Designer and quickly rose to a Lead Design position the following semester. For her work from 2012-13 she was awarded three Michigan Press Association awards, including first and second place for front page design and 1st place for non-front page design in Division I.
In the spring 2014 semester, Prowoznik created a new position to establish lines of communication throughout the various departments in the CM Life newsroom. As visual director, she was awarded three more MPA awards, including first and second place for Inside page design and second place for front page design.
Before returning to Central Michigan University to work this fall for the CM Life advertising department, Prowoznik took a summer internship at MLive Media Group in Grand Rapids.

Multiple departments deploy officers, prepare for Western weekend activity
TailgaTingFood, friends, family—and yes, beer—draw a lot of people
to the parking lots on game day. The influx of people on campus is overwhelming, said Grand Rapids senior Kate
Tessier, but tailgating is a tradition that spans not only this game, but all others in college football. Above all else, it’s most
valued for the chance it gives the community to gather together.
Cmu PRide1
The Blood driveCMU is losing to WMU by 17 donors in the ongoing blood
drive on campus this week. Only one more chance remains for students to donate—today, between noon and 6 p.m. in the lobbies of Emmons and Woldt Halls. Donors not only
get the satisfaction of saving lives, but also of beating WMU at anything and everything they set out to do.
2derogaTory T-shirTs
T-shirts are often used to slam WMU with funny catch phrases, and the idea is to make them as derogatory as possible, said Tessier. One example of these clever phrases
is this year’s slogan, “Let’s beat a dead horse,” which was being sold in the Bovee University Center earlier this week.

Wearing Maroon and gold
Hats, coats, scarves and sweaters. Many people go all out and wear as much CMU gear as possible, especially on
Western Weekend. Students have taken it one step further in years past by decorating halls and campus too.
“Just to take pride in Central and show our spirit,” said Grand Blanc senior Laura Walsh. “(We want to) show that we’re the best and that we are going to win.”
4going To The gaMe
People brave the elements every year, determined to show the same grit and CMU pride that they expect to see on the field, recognizing that going to the game is the whole point
of Western Weekend, after all.5

turn down for safety
Central Michigan Life knows a fair share of students will be rooting for CMU the way too many have in the past. By getting drunk at tailgate and flooding the student section to cheer on the team.
Never mind being preachy. This editorial serves as a gentle reminder to take care of each other this weekend. CMU is our community and our home. Our peers are our friends. Some might consider them family.
This community vibe at CMU means looking out for each other. At CMU, we have the Take Care ini-tiative, something to keep in mind
while firing up. It involves taking care of yourself, but also making sure friends and fellow students are safe. If they’re not, speak up and do something about it.
Through the Take Care initiative, students are encouraged to notice what is going on around them with intent. If you see a potentially dangerous situation, do not be a bystander. It’s not a “party pooper” move to get a police officer when you see someone too inebriated to function. Making sure that person is safe is most important; that’s what police are there for.
All students who have started off
at CMU since freshmen year know about the harms of the bystander mentality. Sexual Aggression Peer Advocates dedicates a large portion of their programming to “No Ze-bras, No Excuses.” Seeing that per-formance is required for students new to CMU, and rightly so.
Don’t stand by while bad things happen. Don’t be a zebra.
College students face some un-fortunate realities on a daily basis. Drinking-related injuries, sexual assault and suicide are some of these issues. Take Care encourages students to be active, not passive, in fighting these issues. As a member
of the CMU family, it is your place to get involved.
We’re not telling you not to party. What we are doing is en-couraging you to party safely and to keep in mind the safety of oth-ers this weekend.
CMU students must watch out for each other, no matter what.
While we may not all be friends, we do have one thing in common: We want to see CMU beat the Broncos tomorrow.
In the end, that’s the strongest basis for friendship we can think of.
So please, fire up and have fun responsibly.
If you attend Central Michigan University, you know full well the party atmosphere Western
Weekend. It’s a historic rivalry and a chance for Chippewas to turn up a little louder than usual.
That’s OK - after all, it is college football.
Growing up, school rivalry was always something that hap-pened in my family.
My mom went to the Univer-sity of Michigan and my dad went to Michigan State Uni-versity. Those schools are two of the most well-known rivals across the midwest.
My dad is much more of a football fan than my mom is, but he’s not afraid to poke fun at my mom when MSU beats U-M.
Rivalry has always bothered me. It never really hit me just how far people take it until my freshmen year at Central Michigan University.
It was my first experience with Western Weekend. I remember reading the disturbing comments made toward our school on a friend’s Facebook status.
I see nothing wrong with cheering for your own team and trying to say why one’s team is better than the others, but once you start bashing our school and how WMU has more suc-cessful graduates than CMU, and that people that go to CMU are not smart, that’s when I have a problem.
Taking the rivalry beyond the football games makes it person-al, and there really should not be anything invigorating about making someone feel bad. It becomes bullying at that point, and people don’t realize it.
Football games are just that—games. I see that Western Weekend tears people apart and creates ugly fights that should not happen because of a foot-ball game. With social media, people know just what to say to hurt the other person.
I wouldn’t care so much about Western Weekend if my sister didn’t attend Western. She is two years younger than me, so the rivalry between us and our schools didn’t happen until two years ago. I see her tagged in pictures on Facebook with her friends who all take the rivalry too far.
Over the past couple of years, it has been made clear that my sister doesn’t want to talk to me about our schools and the rivalry that comes with them. I call out her friends when they post something egregious about CMU.
People should not take rivalry beyond the games, and this goes for both parties.
It’s hard not taking Western Weekend personally. My sister is my best friend, but the fact that we can’t talk about this particular weekend because we want to avoid hurting each other’s feelings is really messed up.
What happened to rivalry being part of just the football games?
Stop making the rivalry between our schools personal. Start making it fun.

What does the Western rivalry mean to you as a Chippewa?
Interviews collected by Adriana Cotero | Staff Reporter
Mount Pleasant freshman
Dara Brown
“If you go to CMU then it’s given to be against
Western. This will be my first Western Weekend, and I am looking forward to the football game. You get to be part
of the giant student body and actually see the rivalry game, that I’ve heard of, happen.
Every school has a rivalry. U of M and MSU are rivals, so I
guess Western is our equivalent.”
Novi sophomoreMichael Haugen
“The rivalry could be because of
something from the past, but schools do always match up against other
schools. I don’t hate Western because I have a bunch of
friends from there, but I do always
make fun of friends for going there. Beat the horse.”
Detroit seniorKenisha Shields
“I think the rivalry is stupid. I think that
everyone at Central right now doesn’t
know why they are rivals. I don’t partake
in the rivalry all that much, but I do
participate in events, like going to the
game and tailgating, and I wear the
clothes that do say F Western. I really do not even know why the rivalry exists.”
Wyoming sophomoreDennis Branson II
“The rivalry doesn’t mean too much to me. I don’t know
too much about it other than, that we
are rivals. I go to the games and root for Central. I don’t really look forward to the weekend and think that the rival might be because
we have similar school colors.”
Sparta juniorCourtney Marble
“I think this rivalry only deals with
sport competitions and football. I don’t
think it should be about hating the
school or anything like that. We have
this rivalry because of how close we are geographically; we are both Michigan teams in the same
conference. I will be at the football game cheering on Central,
of course.”

The possibility of an-other war in Iraq and other international issues were discussed at the Speak Up Speak Out “Back to Iraq?” event held Wednesday at the Charles V. Park Library Auditorium.
Hosted by the Central Michigan University Stu-dent Forum, the town hall style discussion served to educate those in atten-dance about the situation in Iraq and Syria, as well as discuss topics ranging from the Islamic State ter-rorist organization known as ISIS to what the U.S. involvement in Iraq should be.
After watching short videos sharing the history of ISIS and putting the current conflict in some historical context, a panel made up of three profes-sors of history and political science, along with four CMU students, voiced their opinions on these hot-button issues.
“What we’re seeing in the rise of ISIS is in many ways the playing out of a script that was being concocted in 2003,” said John Robertson, a history faculty member.
The roots of ISIS can be traced back to an al-Qaeda
offshoot that rose to power in Iraq following the U.S. invasion of the country. The militant group that was a major part of the Iraqi in-surgency went on to become the backbone of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.
“I like to think this conflict began in 1914 while Europeans were dismantling the Ottoman Empire,” said Sterling Johnson, a political science and public adminis-tration faculty member. “If we put it in that type of his-torical context, we can see from their perspective the desire to restore something.”
The problems associated with ISIS are not limited to just Iraq and Syria and have larger implications for the whole region.
Sean Martinez, a gradu-ate student in political science, emphasized the impact of refugees fleeing the areas directly effected by the fighting.
“Jordan and Turkey and surrounding Middle East-ern countries are all feeling the weight of ISIS and the civil war in Syria, and that cannot be forgotten,” Mar-tinez said.
Martinez also spoke of how ISIS has gained cred-ibility in the region by pro-viding impoverished people with basic necessities.
Graduate student Chris-topher Willis highlighted
the role of poverty in the growth of ISIS. High unemployment levels in Iraq have influenced some young Iraqis to be more open to ISIS leadership.
ISIS has become effec-tive at recruiting youth from around the world through propaganda and a well developed social media presence.
“They’re not allowing people to have opposing views,” Willis said. “Re-cruitment is bolstered by the fact that you don’t re-ally have a second option.”
Much of the discussion focused on trying to under-stand the mindset of those supporting ISIS. Political science faculty member Malek Abdul Jaber chal-lenged those in attendance to put themselves in the shoes of a Muslim living in an area occupied by the United States, asking the audience to envision ISIS tanks driving through Mount Pleasant hoisting the black ISIS flag.
“As Americans, we are not treating the cause of the disease. We are treat-ing the symptoms,” Abdul Jaber said. “ISIS calls itself the Islamic State, but to be recognized internation-ally, other states have to recognize it. This not going to happen because nobody wants it to happen.”

Drinkable acne-gone and a wristband that monitors dehydration may seem like something out of a science fiction film, but such ideas were just two of the 23 pitched to a panel of judges at the Make-A-Pitch event Wednesday night.
Six judges, all with backgrounds in entrepre-neurship and business in Michigan, reviewed “eleva-tor pitches” from students. Pitch sessions gave students two minutes to sell their product. After two minutes, the pitchers would be sig-naled to stop, and the judges would give their feedback.
Ragnar Avery, a Mentor-in-Residence for the New Venture Competition, stressed how important Make-A-Pitch was—not only to the Entrepreneurship De-partment—but to the College of Business Administration as a whole.
“Make-A-Pitch is a great
example where students really begin an opportunity to take the learnings that they have and the concepts that they develop in the classroom and make it real,” Avery said. “Especially when you couple this with the New Venture Compe-tition, it really gives the students an opportunity to test their idea, get valuable feedback and be able to fill those gaps so that as they take their idea further.”
Charles Crespy, dean of the College of Business Administration, and newly appointed chair of the Entrepreneurship Depart-ment, Ken Sanney, were also in attendance.
“CMU is all about providing students with opportunities,” Crespy said. “The volunteer staff and faculty who partici-pate in this competition really create an avenue for students to do something that they otherwise might not be able to do when they entered as freshmen.”
Brian Stark, a first-year graduate student in the Department of Geography, came before the panel with little more than his Army training and a love for environmentalism. In an at-tempt to live up to his name sake, Stark pitched his busi-ness: Ironman Aviation.
Growing up in Erie, Stark spent of his youth bailing hay on a farm. Though he considers himself an envi-ronmentalist, Stark pitched the idea of drone farming.
“(Ironman Aviation is) using UAVs – unmanned aerial vehicles – to fly over farms which will be able to tell plant stress, the yield of a field, pesticide and herbicide use and whether or not (farmers) actually need to use (pesticides),” Stark said. “If you can tell (farmers) where they actu-ally have to put herbicides and pesticides, then they don’t have to spray certain areas. If an area isn’t get-ting enough yield, they can just cut out that area.”

Amidst the snow, wind and smoke coming from a shell of burning sage, several ances-tors of the Saginaw Chippe-wa Indian Tribe were finally laid to rest on Wednesday after a decade-long attempt to release them from the University of Michigan’s Museum of Anthropological Archaeology.
Since the Native Ameri-can Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) was passed in 1990, universi-ties and museums have been required to identify all the Native American remains and artifacts they hold as a result of centuries of archaeological excavation and return them to their rightful tribes.
Frank Cloutier, the direc-tor of public relations for the Tribe, said some people have trouble understanding why ancestral remains need to be returned when they’re being cared for in a museum.
“A lot of people have asked me that. They say, ‘They’re there, they’re being cared for.’ No they’re not. They’re
being decimated,” Cloutier said. “They’re being carbon dated, they’re using DNA grindings of human remains to date them. There’s no respect. There’s no reverence for these creatures who were once human beings and walk-ing the face of this earth.”
On Wednesday, dozens of Tribe and community mem-bers gathered at the Nibo-kaan Ancestral Cemetery on the Isabella Indian Reserva-tion to participate in the ceremony that would return the remains of 94 individuals
and 812 burial object artifacts to the earth from which they were dug up. Several bundles of remains, including bones, teeth, skull fragments and pottery pieces were prepared at the Ziibiwing Cultural Center in Mount Pleasant earlier that morning.

About 100 students braved the November chill in mod-est cardboard homes in the hopes of understanding what it’s like to be homeless.
Harrison junior Sean VanEvery already knew from life experience.
“I was kicked out of my home for identifying as a gay individual,” VanEvery said. “My family is very strong in their religious be-liefs, and when I came out to my mother, we had a lot of issues and fights. Finally, a couple weeks after high school graduation, it was the final boot.”
He spoke as part of Card-board City, an annual event put on the by the Mary Ellen Brandell Volunteer Center as part of Hunger and Homelessness Aware-ness Week. Students made cardboard shelters as a way to raise awareness about homelessness.
Normally, students would have the option to sleep in cardboard boxes, but due to weather conditions, the event went from 7-9 p.m. on Wednesday at the Charles V. Park Library Courtyard.
According to the National Alliance to End Homeless-ness, 610,042 people in the United States are homeless on any given night.
As part of the event, there was a candlelight vigil where VanEvery spoke about his experience of being homeless for three months in the summer of 2011, right before he became a student at Central Michigan University.
Right before his mother kicked him out, VanEvery said they were in the process of moving out of their home, which was in the process of
being foreclosed. At the time he was paying all of his bills.
“My mom and I got into a fight and told me that gay people were lazy and that I just didn’t want to do anything,” VanEvery said. “I stood my ground very hard. By me stand-ing my ground, she told me she was tired of my disrespect and to get out of the house.”
Couch hopping became a way of life for him, VanEv-ery said. He said his friends’ parents didn’t suspect his situation because it was the summer and thought they just wanted to spend some time to-gether before going to college.
“Some nights, when I couldn’t find a place to crash, I slept behind the middle school I worked at,” VanEvery said. “I would have to be at work at 7:30 in the morning, so I would wake up early, sneak into the back door that I had a key for and shower in the boy’s locker room.”
VanEvery said that his light at the end of the tun-nel was coming to CMU.
“I took time to self reflect and learn more about who I was as a person,” VanEv-ery said. “Being homeless just lurked over my head. I would always wonder if this situation was ever going to happen again.”
VanEvery’s talk impacted the students at the event.
“I think it was very coura-geous of him to share his story. Hearing his story and thinking what he went through was an eye-opening experience,” said Midland sophomore Kallie Schloemann.
Okemos sophomore Lau-ren Lynn, on-site student coordinator for the volun-teer center, said that it was a powerful experience to hear his story.
“That was very heart wrenching for me to hear
because you never know,” Lynn said.
In addition to VanEvery’s speech, students made makeshift shelters out of cardboard boxes.
Some students choose to duct tape several boxes together to make a bigger shelter while others choose to flatten their box so they could sit on it.
Fraser sophomore Mack-enzie Eddy said she came to the event to try to get a better understanding of homelessness.
“I have always had mon-ey,” Eddy said. “My family is middle class and from the suburbs, so I haven’t encountered many home-less people.”
Howell freshman Brittany Schepak said she came to challenge herself.
“(This experience) has made me grateful for what I have and my living situa-tion,” Schepak said.
Charnae Sanders, South-field junior and special events coordinator for the volunteer center, said she thinks the event went well, despite the weather.
“A lot of students came to support an issue that is prominent in our communi-ty,” Sanders said. “We can’t determine the weather, but based on the number of stu-dents who stayed, it shows this event should go on.”
VanEvery asked other par-ticipants to envision what it’s like to be homeless while taking part of the event.
“Like myself, some people are embarrassed to share this bit of themselves,” VanEvery said. “This is my fifth time sharing my story to the CMU community, and even now, there is a little lump in my throat of what everyone is thinking when I am speaking.”

For the first time in more than a year, Central Michigan Universi-ty women’s basketball’s senior point guard Jessica Green is 100 percent healthy.
A season-ending knee injury during her sopho-more season might have hindered her performance, but Green is using a clean bill of health as a competi-tive edge.
“I will be able to do a better job than I did last year,” Green said. “I can finally say my knee is at 100 percent. If I can score 20 points every game, it would be pretty good. I definitely feel like I will have a bigger role this year.”
The Belleville-native started 2013-14 slowly but fought through the pain to finish with the third most points for the Chippewas last season.
Green scored 20-plus points four times last season and shot 41 percent from the floor.
In what was a breakout year for fellow senior guard Crystal Bradford, Green was an effective passer, contributing 115 assists during the duo’s junior campaign.
“She attracts a lot of attention,” said forward Jas’Mine Bracey, another member of the Chippewas outstanding senior class. “When (Green) drives, players seem to for-get about the other four players.”
Green’s teammates said they appreciate her selflessness offen-sively but believe 2014-15 will be the time for her to make her mark as CMU’s primary scoring option.
“Sometimes she thinks she has to play this role of getting a healthy 10 points and dish the ball out to people,” Bradford said. “I want her to be a scoring point guard, too. I don’t want her to think she is a role
player. She has to produce points every game.”
Green’s ability to shoot from behind the 3-point line might be most key in following through on the expectations her teammates and coaches have placed on her performance this winter.
“We are going to find new people who can hit threes,” said Head Coach Sue Guevara. “Before she went down with her knee in-jury, she was shooting around 40 percent (from 3-point range).”
Green has hit 54 long balls dur-ing her CMU career. She nearly doubled her career 3-point at-tempts last season, attempting 83.
Whatever her role ends up be-ing this winter, Green said she is ready to help her team reclaim a Mid-American Conference title.
“I’m going to play every game like it’s my last game,” she said. “I have to play all out. It’s all or nothing this year.”
As for her self-worth, Bradford said Green should think of herself in one way and one way only.
“Sophomore year, people called us Batman and Robin,” Bradford said. “I know we are going to play great together in a Bonnie and Clyde type of way.
“I want her to know she is a star.”

Following a sluggish perfor-mance in the season opener, Central Michigan University’s women’s basketball team puts its home winning streak on the line against one of the nation’s most prestigious pro-grams Saturday.
The Chippewas will host the University of Kentucky, which enters the highly-an-ticipated matchup ranked No. 10 in the country.
“They’re a good team,” said senior guard Crystal Bradford. “They are athletic. But we’re prepared to give our best no matter who we’re playing.”
The women come into the contest with a 12-game regular season home winning streak, and expect fans to have a huge impact on the flow of the game.
“Playing at home is an advantage,” said sophomore forward Jewel Cotton. “We need that sixth player, and that’s definitely the fans. They keep us dialed in when we get discouraged. When we make a mistake, the fans always keep us uplifted.”
Given UK’s status as one of the elite teams in the nation, Bradford said the Chippewas are embracing the role of the “Cinderella” team.
“I think we’re always un-derdogs,” Bradford said. “Even in the MAC we’re underdogs. Even though we were picked to finish number one (in the MAC), I still feel like we’re the underdog. We’re just going to go out there and have fun. There’s no pressure on us.”
UK is 3-0 this season includ-ing a 74-64 win over No. 8 Baylor University on Monday.

Improving on defense is going to be a top priority for the Central Michigan University women’s basket-ball team as they head into Saturday’s game against the Kentucky Wildcats.
The Chippewas allowed 80 points in their first and only game of the season.
“It’s the biggest thing for us,” said senior Crystal Bradford. “If we are able to win, it will be because of our defense.”
Last season, the Chip-pewas gave up an average of 77.3 points per game, while running head coach Sue Guevara’s traditional 2-3 zone. UK was able to ex-ploit that zone last season when the two teams met, scoring 96 points.
With the newly imple-mented pack line defensive scheme still fresh in the minds of her players, Guevara said the plan has been applied in full this week in practice.
“The tape doesn’t lie,” Guevara said. “Our kids are starting to understand the footwork and positioning they did not have against UMass. We have gotten bet-ter with it, but I don’t know how much of it you are going to see of it Saturday.”
Guevara also said she and the Chippewas will attempt to turn the Wildcats into a jump shooting team. Ken-tucky is averaging 23 3-point shots per game this season and is shooting 30 percent from beyond the arc. UK is shooting just 43 percent from all other areas of the floor.
Sophomore guard Jewel Cotton is looking to make the
most of the minutes she is getting this season.
Playing a total of 361 minutes during the 2013-14 season, Cotton averaged 3.2 points per game. This season against UMass, Cotton played 31 minutes and scored 12.
“With more minutes comes more responsibility,” Cotton said. “I’m just taking that re-sponsibility and running with it. Coach tells me all the time to not be afraid of shooting it. If I miss it, I just have to get the ball back on defense.”
Hard work in the offsea-son has made a substantial difference for Cotton, her coaches say.
“We call her Bam or Bambi because when she came in, she was skinny and gangly,” Guevara said. “All summer she was in the weight room and in the gym working on her game. Jewel is really easy to coach. The best part is that she is only a sophomore.”
Cotton scored a season-high 12 points and recorded seven rebounds against the Wildcats in last year’s game.
“They don’t expect us to out rebound them,” Cotton said. “It will be a test for myself to go to the glass and not allow them to own the boards.”

ing SouthEastern Confer-ence 6th Player of the Year, redshirt junior Jennifer O’Neill, who is averaging a team-high 18.7 points and 5.7 rebounds per game.
As a team, the Wildcats av-erage 92 points per game this season. CMU head coach Sue Guevara said help defense will be imperative to winning on Saturday.
“There’s a reason they’re in the Top 25,” Guevara said. “They are fast and aggressive. They just get after you.”
The Chippewas were dismantled 96-74 in last year’s matchup against the Wildcats.
In that game, CMU shot 40 percent from the field and had 28 turnovers.
Bradford said she knows ball control will be crucial in order to stay with the Wild-cats, who are forcing 26.3 turnovers per game.
“It’s imperative,” Bradford said. “It’s in our guard play. We are going to help our guards, but we just have to take better care of the basketball.”
Kentucky has owned the glass against its opponents thus far, outrebounding the opposi-tion by 12 boards per game.
Cotton said controlling the boards against the Wildcats
could help avoid some of those pesky turnovers.
“We need everyone crashing the boards so that they don’t get easy put backs or second chance points,” Cotton said. “Just because they are big bod-ies doesn’t mean they get to own the boards.”
Though the Chippewas say a win against a SEC school would be nice, they also understand the value of progression early in the season.
“It depends on how the win is,” Bradford said. “If we can execute and everything, and play a good basketball game, it’s going to do a lot for us.”

While thousands of fans will walk into Kelly/Shorts Stadium on Saturday, 19 seniors will walk out of the building hav-ing played their last game in Mount Pleasant.
“I’m going to miss it for sure,” said senior linebacker Justin Cherocci. “Coach Nystrom be-fore (practice said) ‘This is our last Wednesday practice with Cody (Lopez) and Cherocci.’ That’s actually when it hit me. I just realized I’m not going to have it anymore.”
This year’s seniors might have one more chance after Saturday’s game, since CMU is eligible for one of the Mid-American Conference’s five primary bowl games or one of the secondary bowl tie-ins.
Senior offensive guard Andy Phillips has started 41 consecutive games on CMU’s offensive line, dating back to October 2011.
“I’m trying not to think about it,” Phillips said. “You prepare every week as if it’s
your last, because you really don’t know when it’s going to be. It’s going to be an emotional time for seniors, but once you get out there playing, you play every play as if it’s your last just like you always do.”
Phillips said he is not looking forward to the final whistle he hears while on the field of play.
“Whenever they blow the whistle and drag you off the field, it’s over,” he said.
Chippewas eliminated from MAC West after Toledo victory
Sitting at 5-2 in the MAC, the Chippewas chances of leapfrog-ging Toledo, Western Michigan University and Northern Illinois University to the top of the MAC West standings were slim as the week began.
With Toledo’s 27-20 win over BGSU Wednesday, CMU was eliminated from the MAC West race.
Toledo (6-1 MAC), NIU (6-1 MAC) and WMU (5-1 MAC) are all still in contention.
If CMU beats Western Michigan on Saturday, the Broncos will be eliminated.
Rawls healthy, seniors prep for final home game
Rawls talks rivalrySenior running back Thom-
as Rawls is new to CMU this year, but the University of Michigan transfer is not new to intense college football rivalries.
“Everyone knows about the Michigan-Michigan State ri-
valry,” Rawls said. “Everyone outside of that also knows about Central-Western. I didn’t know too much of the details, and the stuff I’m learning now with speakers coming in and other coaches. Overall, I’m looking forward to learning more about it and
going out and playing with the same tenacity.”
Rawls has not had more than three carries in a game since the 32-29 loss to Ball State on Oct. 18. The Flint-native said he will be at 100 percent Saturday.
Rawls played with WMU
senior defensive tackle Richard Ash when the two were teammates at Michigan. Saturday, the two will be on opposing ends of the line of scrimmage.
“I talked to him and we’re ready to battle,” Rawls said. “I’m just excited to be back.”

Hibbitts, Simons share bond
By Joe JuddAssistant Sports Editor
Central Michigan Universi-ty’s men’s basketball team will see action twice this weekend.
The men host the Central Michigan Tournament at 7 p.m. Friday and 12:30 p.m. Sunday.
The Chippewas take on the University of Maine at 7 p.m. Friday and the Univer-sity of Arkansas at Pine Bluff on Sunday.
The two teams have both had recent struggles, compa-rable to the ones the Chip-pewas have faced during the last several seasons.
“I think it’s important for us in our scheduling to try and bring in a lot of different types of teams, different styles,” Head Coach Keno Davis said. “You might have in your mind what a Mid-American Confer-ence team is. That’s quickly changing here with different coaches coming in.”
Davis said he is looking for-ward to studying his counter-part on the opposing bench.
“The more that you can prepare yourself by bringing in a lot of types of coaching philosophies, I think it can really help a team this early
Basketball to host weekend invite

in the season,” Davis said. CMU is undefeated in the
two games it has played this winter. This is the first time since the 2002-03 season that a CMU men’s basketball has started the season with two consecutive wins.
A major component to the early success has been the team’s ability to crash the boards and come down with the ensuing rebound. This has been missing from CMU’s game in recent years.
“That was something in the last couple of years that we knew we were against it,” Davis said. “Now that we’ve had an unbelievable effort on the defensive rebounding side, we can actually increase our chances to win the game.”
Davis said he hopes students will warm up for the CMU football team’s big game on Sat-urday afternoon with a trip to McGuirk Arena on Friday night.
“I think you’re just see-ing the beginning of (student attendance),” Davis said. “I would hope that in the next few weeks is that you only see a better and better student section, and we don’t want it to drop off after a year. We want it to always be there.”
Freshman forward Luke Meyer, who had 13 points with nine rebounds during 23 minutes of playing time in CMU’s 75-63 victory over Youngstown State, said he can feel the team’s chemistry starting to come together.
“We all work our butts off in practice,” Meyer said. “We can definitely feel (our chemistry) at practice, in the locker room and at team dinners. It’s everywhere.”
The Addison-native stands an inch short of seven feet and is a part of a revamped post game for the Chippewas, which has contributed to their rebounding success.
Along with Meyer in this group is freshman forward DaRohn Scott and redshirt freshman Milos Cabarkapa. The average height between the three freshmen: Six feet-eight inches.
“We’re a completely different team now because of the added height,” Meyer said. “Now we can guard big and we have three completely different big men.”
CMU enters play on Friday with 50.5 rebounds per game, which is good enough for a plus 19.5 rebounding margin on opponents.
By Taylor DesOrmeau Senior reporter
Junior forwards Blake Hibbitts and John Simons have been playing basketball together for years.
The two played Amateur Athletic Unions basketball together in Grand Rapids before coming to the Cen-tral Michigan University basketball team.
The addition of three new CMU freshmen in the center spot will allow Hibbitts or Simons to play the power for-ward position, a job that is still very much up for grabs.
“It’s nice to have players with a comfort level with their teammates already coming in,” said Head Coach Keno Davis. “It shows to their character how good of friends they are even though they’re competing for playing time.”
The current roommates both like to shoot from beyond the arc.
Only 20 teams in the country shot more 3-point-ers than CMU’s 777 attempts last season, led primarily by Hibbitts and Simons.
“We both like to shoot it a lot,” Hibbitts said. “But I feel like we’re both more capable than just shooting to help our team on offense and defensive.”
Davis said the team will not have to rely on the 3-point shot as much this year.
“If we were shooting poorly from the outside, we’d be going in a whole lot
more than shooting from the perimeter,” Davis said. “Not only do I think we can shoot a high percentage, but I think we’ve got some guys that can chase down some of those rebounds.”
With bigger bodies near the rim, Hibbitts and Simons should find more space shoot-ing from long range.
“A lot of times the tall players on other teams don’t like to guard people out there,” Hibbitts said. “I just try to take advantage of that whenever I can.”
