The Undergraduate Student Government had their last meeting on July 15 for the summer. The meeting consisted of briefing the organization on the summer initiatives and plans for the upcoming academic year. Some of the most important topics discussed were the current statuses of the Rec Center renovation, the construction of the new Health Center and the addition of the new Honors College. President Alex Solis said the Wood County Hospital has officially taken over the oversight of the new Health Center. In addition, Wood County Hospital’s Dr. Nicholas G. Espinoza, has been named the medical director of the new facility May 30 and officially took on the position July 1. “The Health Center is a couple weeks [behind] because of the weather, but they are still planning on making that [first day of fall semester] deadline,” Solis said. “Everything is set for transition.” Solis also said while the Rec Center will be up and running by September 2014, the official floor plans are not out yet. Lastly, the new addition of the Honors College will be in effect sometime this upcoming academic year.

However, Assistant Director in the Office of Multicultural Affairs, Tobias Spears, and assistant director at the Counseling Center, Denise Litterer, have been hosting a sexual iden- tity support group known as Intersections at the University. The group deals with LGBT students coming together and speaking about topics such as homophobia, racism, online dating, lib- eralism and the cultural cli- mate at the University. Spears said it’s a space for people to come and speak about topics that aren’t always discussed on campus regardless of where they are in terms of their sexuality. “It’s for people to come together and talk about how their identities intersect and work to create their experi- ences here at the University,” Spears said. “We needed to create a space where people could come and not feel like they had to be out of the closet or in a closet.” Litterer said because of Intersections taking place at the Resource Center, it gives a sense of safety to the stu- dents who attend and makes them feel like they can speak about whatever they want, even to complete strangers if it’s their first time attending. The leaders will usually ask what to speak about and it depends on who attends that meeting on what is going to be discussed. “The LGBT groups are welcoming,” Litterer said. “You’re automatically a part of the group, even if you don’t share your sexual iden- tity.

Spears said one of the main reasons why the support group exists is because the Resource Center hosts pro-grams that privilege sexual identity as most salient, but he feels groups are also necessary for those stu-dents who don’t understand their sexuality as the number one facet of their identity, which is why the group is hosted in a safe environment and why people are able to speak about whatever is on their mind besides LGBT issues.

“It’s for anyone to come in and have a conversation about anything,” Spears said. “It’s for all students in the LGBT community, as well as students who don’t identify as a sexual minority.”

Intersections is held every Thursday at 5:30 p.m. at the Resource Center in the Math and Science building during the school year. There aren’t any sessions dur-ing the summer break. The support group will have its first meeting on September 12 for the next school year.

afford older cars,” Greer said. “[My favorite part is] the relaxation part of being involved in finding the parts and getting away from the day-to-day hassle of other things.”

Freshman David Nabinger said going to the annual car show is a tradition for him as a local.

“It’s here, it’s free and I’ve been going to this for years,” Nabinger said. “I just think they’re cool.”

Another eye-catcher during the event was William E. Harris’ Thunderbird Jr. The electric car was made in 1954 for children and was a popular stop for the crowd during the show. The car is made on a quarter scale, meaning it is a quarter size of a real Thunderbird and a quarter of the price.

“The [Ford] company was using the car in the dealerships [for customers] to try out,” Harris said. “You’d put your name in a drawing to win one of these. It does about eight mph.”

Ruland said the committee is plan-ning on having a debriefing of next year’s event soon where the topic of having unusual cars as a separate category.

“In general, this is the first year we changed the entry points for the show,” she said. “We’re going to just keep refining our process to make things go smoother for the visitors.”

The show itself is a huge undertak-ing, but is thankful for the commu-nity because without their support the show couldn’t go on, Ruland said. This year was also the first year the car show held a car hop delivery service, which she said is worth doing again next year.

“I look forward to coming here every year,” Greer said. “I want to thank the town of Bowling Green for putting this event on, it’s been a won-derful experience.”

With the fa l l semester starting in a couple of weeks, it’s time for those l iv ing of f campus to pack again.

The process includes going through belongings, sorting out what to take to school or just cleaning in general. Or if you live off campus, you have your belongings with you, or they’re at your parents.

What have you kept over the years? Toys and keep-sakes from childhood? How about from middle school or high school? Some people tend to take college as a new way to invent themselves, but some memories you just

don’t want to let go.Small collections of

items from different times in your life either kept out so you can see them, or all boxed away for later are great ways of remembering the past. Scrapbooks, high school memoirs and photo albums are all great ways to remember the memories from before.

For those who need more than items or photos for mem-ories, writing what you would like to remember helps, where memoirs and scrapbooks work. Another way includes dated letters that touches on many different aspects of your life, such as your dreams, your plans, friends, favorite movies or music; these memories are irreplaceable at times.

Letters, easy to lose and find again, can be put into anything that you might not open again for a long time.

When writing, think about what a future self might be interested in reading. Would it be about what you’re up to then? Or what music and lyr-ics matter to you the most at the time? Right now, it’s hard

to think about what would be important in the future, but try. Most likely, your future self might laugh at what you put down.

What are your burning desires for the future? Do you want more piercings or tat-toos? How about a better diet? Dreaming about going some-

where you’ve never gone to before, to study or just for pleasure?

Write these down in a letter to yourself. It doesn’t take much to forget what you thought about yester-day or the day before. Take some time out of your day once a year or so and write down things about yourself you would like to remember. It’s rewarding when you find these little letters or even journals from the past. If in college you like to read about what you did in high school, grown-up you would love to read what you were like in college

Think about it the next time you have to sort through your belongings. Consider just sticking a simple letter somewhere for later.

Summer time for many of us is a time for beach-es, vacations and the pursuit of tranquil it y. Every spring semester I remind myself of the joys of summer, the weekend visits to the quarry fol-lowed by the hot, humid 90 degree weather.

And yet the more I look back at my summer vacations I f ind myself ref lect ing on what I have done. Often times, it’s less elaborate than I would have thought it was going to be. But even though my percep-tions aren’t aligned with

my expectations, it stil l always manages to end great.

Unlike other parts of the year, summer has the potential to stir up emotions. We experi-ence drama, heartbreak, compassion, boredom and stress. It’s the fall and spring sessions all

packed and condensed into three months. Most of us travel, go on vaca-tions, meet new people

and explore new chal-lenges. It’s in the heart of all this that summer becomes my favorite time of the year.

Unfortunately, not all of my summers have been the perfect expe-rience. Many times I’ve discovered that summer t ime has the potentia l to be draw n out and depressing when crowd-ed with a busy summer class schedule. Ot her t imes, I’ve found that summer vacat ion can make you realize your f laws, making you wish for the fall to resume.

With all this in hind-sight, I can’t say that my three month break from crowded BG is ever taken for granted. I’ve had the opportunity to build great fr iendships

during my summers at Bowling Green and it’s a l l become a journey that may not be repli-cated again. I don’t have much time left on this campus and I’m start-ing to think that maybe there’s more to life than drow ning yourself in college life drama.

W hether you’re upset or happy, take some time to appreciate your time off. Many of us will work 40 hour work weeks with a two week vacation per year. Ever y t ime I feel bored I remind myself of this litt le fact and I get back to doing what I do best in the summer—studying.

Anyone who follows hock-ey and the NHL knows the name Mike “Doc” Emrick, or better yet, know his voice.

Emrick, age 66, has to most American hockey fans become the equal to the voice of the NHL. Though many don’t know that the man everyone calls Doc is an alum of the University or how he picked up his signature nickname.

Emrick grew up not too far from the city, in La Fontaine, Indiana, about 60 miles north of Indianapolis. As a boy, he grew to love sports, especially baseball and hockey. Emrick attend-ed Manchester College in 1968 where he gained his bachelors of science in speech. A year later he earned his masters of arts in radio and television from Miami University, accord-ing to Sports Illustrated. However, he received his final degree from right here at the University. Emrick earned his doctor-ate in Communications in 1976. During his time at the University, Sports Illustrated also said Emrick spent part of his time exploring the his-tory of baseball broadcast-ing. During that time, he

reached out to the Detroit Tigers where he struck up a quick friendship with Tiger’s Hall of Fame play-by-play broadcaster Ernie Harwell, according to Sports Illustrated. Through his time with Harwell, Emrick developed his con-nections with broadcast-ers and writers developing his play-by-play abilities.

In 1973, after starting his dissertation, Emrick got his first professional hockey job with the Port Huron Flags, a minor league affiliate for the Detroit Red Wings. Three years later, he finished his thesis and got a job with the Maine Mariners, which is where his nickname got its start. Emrick said it was first started by Mariners president Ed Anderson.

“He knew I had a doctor-ate from [the University] so he started calling me Doc,” Emrick said in an inter-view with Sports Illustrated. “It’s not a terribly creative nickname, but it stuck.”

Shortly after his time in Maine, Emrick struck his first NHL job with the newly-founded New Jersey Devils

in 1982, according to the Hockey Writers website. He spent six years in New Jersey until he was hired by the Philadelphia Flyers in 1988, where he spent another five years. In 1993, Emrick returned to New Jersey where he stayed until 2011.

During his span of 18 years with the Devils, Emrick held other notable positions as well. Emrick broadcast games for ESPN, ABC, Fox and TNT. In 2005, he was named the head play-by-play announcer for the NHL on Versus and holds it to this day after it was taken over NBC. Outside of hockey, Emrick has broadcasted games for the NFL, NCAA mens’ basketball and even the National Lacrosse League. Over his illustrious career, Emrick has broadcasted 24 consecutive Stanley Cup Playoffs, 13 Stanley Cup Finals and six Olympic Games, according to NBC.

The success and impor-tance of Doc Emrick to not only hockey, but the University as well, cannot be understated. He regularly returns to the Falcon hockey arena where he once called Falcon hockey games, the first time hockey games he was ever paid to do. Kevin Meyers, a senior at the University, holds the same position once filled by Emrick and knows what that means.

“As an aspiring hockey broadcaster, I’ve drawn inspiration from a lot of dif-ferent broadcasters and Doc is certainly no exception,” Meyers said. “The fact that I can look to someone like him who was once in my posi-tion, and is now the voice of the NHL in the United States, says a lot about what the position means and what type of broadcaster this job is capable of producing.”

Alan Marrs, the executive director of the University’s Radio Sports Organization, which provides students the same play-by-play opportunities on campus, also recognizes what the legacy of Emrick means.

“He’s an example,” Marrs said. “[He’s] someone just like us that went to the same uni-versity. He has attained one of the most featured posi-tions in broadcasting for his

sport and is highly respected by colleagues and fans alike.”

In 2011, he was nominated and won his first Emmy for best play-by-play personality. In that same year, Mike “Doc” Emrick was inducted into the United States Hockey Hall of

Fame, the first ever broad-caster to be given the honor. Today, he continues to call the most important hockey games for NBC and lives with his longtime wife Joyce just north of Detroit in the small town of St. Claire, Michigan.

The album that changed my life is “Songs About Jane” by Maroon 5.

When this album actually changed my life was nearly a decade after it came out and it was just by chance that this album happened to be in my car.

In February of 2012 I moved myself to Orlando, Fla. for an internship with Disney. This was the album that played on repeat for the majority of the drive.

When I hear this album

now all I can remember is how petrified I was to be moving alone to live with five people I had never met before and how excited I was to really be on my own for the first time.

To me this album really signifies me growing up; coming to college paled in comparison to moving myself half-way across the country.

Of course, after six and a half months in Orlando, what better way to have made my drive back home than to listen to the very same album.

That album changed my life...

For the Belleville family, keep-ing their meat shop in the family is important.

Belleville Market opened in 1912 and the fourth gen-eration of the Belleville family is currently working at the shop.

Mike Belleville, a partner of the business, said when they opened the shop some of the family moved into the city while some stayed on the farm.

“Originally our family were farmers and the meat busi-ness was just part of that type of operation,” Mike said.

The shop has been family-run from the beginning.

Currently at the shop they have four full time fam-ily members working, and one family member work-ing part time, said Ivan

Belleville, Mike’s son and the manager of the North Baltimore Wing.

The meat sold in the shop is either raised by the Belleville family or raised locally, Mike said.

“The beef we raise our-selves, the pork we have a grower who grows pork for us in Hancock County,” he said.

As well as selling meats in the store, they also carry canned goods, popcorn, eggs and milk.

Mike said they try to keep everything in the shop local, or what he likes to call “low mileage products.”

Graduate student Amber Garrabrant likes that Belleville Market produces their own meats, and buys locally grown food.

“I personally like locally grown things,” Garrabrant said. “It’s usually less pro-cessed.”

Graduate student Sarah Sano said supporting the community is something that should be done.

“Supporting the people around you is really impor-tant, so buying locally grown [food] is important,” Sano said.

Belleville Market has a location in Bowling Green and they have a harvesting facility in North Baltimore.

“We’ve been based out of Bowling Green since open-ing and we purchased the North Baltimore location 13 or 14 years ago,” Ivan said.

At the harvesting location they receive the cattle,and then process them to be sold in the shops.

Belleville Market has quite a few professors who come in and buy meats as well as quite a few stu-dents who live off campus, Mike said.

Mike said his favorite part about working is seeing cus-tomer’s reactions to their products.

“I love dealing with peo-ple and giving them good wholesome products,” Mike said. “I like to see the smile on people’s faces when they come back and tell me how good it was.”

Ivan said it isn’t so much the business that he loves as it is facing the problems that happen.

“I like doing the employ-ee relations, customer rela-tions; the regulatory side of things,” Ivan said. “It isn’t necessarily something I enjoy, but I look at it as a challenge.”

There are currently no set plans for the future, except for continuing what they currently do.

“We take it day-by-day,” Ivan said.

When I was in the seventh grade, every day after school I would immediately run upstairs, call my best friend at the time Hannah and surf the web for new music. Each week it would be a different song. We would learn every lyric too and obsessively watch the music video. One day, I decided to watch MTV instead and the first music video that was playing was “U Remind Me” by Usher. Needless

to say, that was the song choice of the week, except this week‘s obsession soon turned into a lifetime one. Everyone who knows me understands I will not shut up about Usher. I don’t know why I am so in love with the man, but his music always puts a smile across my face. When I went to his “OMG Tour” in 2010, he pointed me out in the crowd. I cried. No matter the reason I fell in love with his music, I did and I am so blessed I did because his music will with-out a doubt put that needed smile on my face.

Chip iced coffee has the taste of mint

swirled with chocolate and sweet cream flavors. The Old Fashioned Butter Pecan iced coffee features

the flavors of butter roasted pecans and sweet cream.

Employee Julie Williams said the new additions have been selling well with the cus-tomers.

“Our Butter Pecan iced coffee has gone fast as well as the frozen hot chocolate,” Williams said.

The National Ice Cream month is taking place at Dairy Queen. The

ice cream shop recently debuted the new Lemon Meringue Pie Blizzard of

the month and continues to offer the S’mores Blizzard as well. The Lemon Meringue Pie Blizzard is a blend of lemon meringue pie filling, pie pieces

and vanilla soft-serve with a meringue-flavored whipped topping.

Junior Katherine Koerig said Myles Dairy Queen always has unique and satisfying new

ice cream flavors for the season.“I look forward to Dairy Queen’s blizzards,”

Koerig said. “I haven’t been to any other [Dairy Queen] that hooks them up like [this location] does, they’re delicious.”

Dairy Queen is whipping up fruit smoothies available in orange, strawberry, strawberry banana, triple berry and many more.

McDonald’s introduced two new items this summer such as the Blueberry Pomegranate smoothie and the Dulce de Leche shake.

Sophomore Kaleigh Gray said it’s the summer additions that keep her going to the restaurant.

When I look at music I see an influence on my life and no artist has influ-enced me more than Ringo Starr. His album “Vertical Man” gave me a new way to look at the world. I went from worrying about what life threw at me to being understanding towards life’s complications. Starr’s lyrics, from the title song, “When the world is coming down

on you and your back’s against the wall, change the glass that you’ve been look-ing through, it’s really half full after all,” is a reminder that even when things are bothering me I have the power to change the way I see the world around me. We all go through strug-gles in our lives and need something to turn to in these times, so a Ringo Starr album is my way of getting focused on the positive aspects of life.

“I love the new blueberry pomegranate smoothie at McDonald’s,” Gray said. “It’s super fruity and refreshing and I come in and order it all the time.”

The summer lineup included returning favorites such as the Cherry Berry Chiller and Frozen Strawberry Lemonade.

“It’s cool that restaurants switch up their menus in the summer,” Gray said. “It’s something to look forward to and helps mark the official start of summer.”

The sunny weather in Bowling Green marks the arrival of new summer flavors at restau-rants such as Starbucks, Dunkin’ Donuts, McDonald’s and Myles Dairy Queen.

Starbucks on campus introduced Valencia Orange Refreshers this year. These fruit drinks are made with real fruit and green tea extract, topped off with a real orange slice.

Jeremiah Crespo, assistant manager at Starbucks, said the Valencia Orange Refreshers is a best-seller.

“It’s got an energy kick and is low calo-rie, which has made it really popular,” Crespo said.

In addition to the new Valencia Orange fla-vor, Starbucks refreshers are also available in Cool Lime and Berry Hibiscus flavors.

Starbucks has the Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino, which is a blend of caramel syrup and frappuccino roast coffee, milk and ice, topped off with a layer of dark caramel sauce, whipped cream, caramel drizzle and crunchy caramel sugar toppings.

Senior Betsy Martin said she likes how Starbucks creates new types of coffee for the season.

“The summer flavors at Starbucks are something to look forward to each year and it’s exciting that they’re always changing,” Martin said.

Starbucks is offering summer salads such as the Chicken & Greens Caesar, the Zesty Chicken & Black Bean salad and the Hearty Veggie & Brown Rice salad.

Dunkin’ Donuts has introduced two new flavors of iced coffee. It’s Mint Chocolate
