Colleges
By Ben Miller
Undergraduate students will
continue to pay a fee that was
scheduled to end next year and
graduate-level medical students
will face increasing tuition during
the next three years as a result of a
recent Board of Regents meeting.
UNDERGRADUATE FEE
Undergraduates will continue
to pay a surcharge of $20.50 per
credit, or $307.50 per semester
for a student taking 15 credits.
Under system policy, 15 percent
of the surcharge will go toward
student nancial aid.
Marc Johnson, president of
the University of Nevada, Reno,
said the temporary undergradu-
ate fee was made permanent
in anticipation of a new state
policy that could allow the
institution to keep more tuition
money instead of sending it to
the state.
The Nevada System of Higher
Education is seeking more bud-
get stability after state revenue
shortfalls during the past three
years led to massive cuts for
UNR including eliminated
programs such as German and
supply chain management, the
ring of tenured professors and
reduced salaries for faculty.
The continued surcharge is
another layer on top of student
tuition and fee increases. This
fall, tuition for full-time, in-state
undergraduates will increase 8
percent from $5,047 per year to
$5,472.
Johnson said the likelihood of
tuition continuing to increase
depends on how much funding
the state legislature decides
to give to higher education
during its next session, which
begins in February.
We dont currently have
plans to (raise tuition), but Im
not telling you we wont, he
said.
MEDICAL SCHOOL
TUITION
The regents voted to raise
medical school tuition and
fees by more than $1,600 in the
2013-14 academic year and
more than $1,700 in 2014-15
for in-state, full-time students.
Thomas Schwenk, dean
of the University of Nevada
School of Medicine, said tu-
ition is being increased to help
the institution create higher-
quality curricula focused more
on clinical and basic science
studies.
That takes more faculty,
more small groups and more
faculty time, Schwenk said.
He said the higher cost is
justied because the price of
tuition will remain lower than
that of other medical schools
in the west.
However, it could mean
more loans and debt for medi-
cal students. Robyn Berent, a
32-year-old doctoral student
in cellular and molecular
pharmacology and physiology,
said the increase might force
her to take out student loans
for the rst time.
And we all know with the
interest rates increasing how
much money thats going to
cost in the long run, Berent
said. Its frustrating, but what
can you do?
However, she feels the cost is
justied because of the medical
schools quality.
Im not happy about it, but
I accept it and I understand it,
she said.
Schwenk said UNSOM students
graduate with less debt than the
national average, but that its still
a concern that they have debt at
all. He feels that most students,
like Berent, understand the need
for the higher cost.
In fact, Schwenk said he wants
to double the number of students
graduating from the school of
medicine from 50 to 100. Students
will be attracted to the quality of
the new curricula, he said.
We have to be careful to
deliver very high value for that
increasing tuition, he said.

This year marks the 100th
year of summer session, an in-
between-semesters offering of
short classes that students and
faculty say have the benet of
a calmer, more focused atmo-
sphere.
I call it the essence of sum-
mer, Executive Director of
Summer Session & Academic
Credit Programs Kerri Garcia
said. Summer shouldnt just be
about taking a class because
fall and spring really isnt either.
I think its just a positive atmo-
sphere, really.
Summer session collaborates
with Parking and Transportation
Services to provide students
with parking deals, especially
pertaining to the three-week
term, Garcia said.
Alumnus Sebastian Quidachay
has taken summer classes at
the University of Nevada, Reno
since before the start of his
freshman year, and agrees there
is a difference in the atmo-
sphere in summer compared to
the regular semesters.
Summer school is a more re-
laxing environment. The library
always has a quiet corner devoid
of people, parking is a breeze,
and you dont have long lines
to get lunch at the (Joe Crowley
Student Union), Quidachay
said.
Summer classes sometimes
cost the university more money
than they gain. The process of
setting up classes involves giv-
ing each department a budget
in October, Garcia said. The
departments send in the classes
highest in demand, and it is her
ofces job to offer those classes
that students need without
losing money. But sometimes
losses are inevitable in order for
students to graduate on time,
Garcia said.
Sometimes a class programs
have been canceled, and so
obviously we run those classes
even if its a loss because thats
the right thing to do for the
university, Garcia said. Theyll
say Hey, these students need to
get through.
Being self-funded means
students pay less, Garcia said.
Normal class fees dont apply
because summer classes arent
state funded. Theres also no out
of state tuition.
So what the self-funded really
means though is that the teach-
ers teaching normally from the
state would normally come out
of the state account, but this
time it doesnt it comes from
the summer session account,
Garcia said. So it doesnt drain
the state, which is good.
Instructor and doctoral
student Maria Isabel Muoz
Blanco prefers to teach summer
sessions for the relaxed and
familiar environment, but she
warns of the workload.
Its very intense, she said.
You have to work really hard
in order to keep up with the
class demand, but it has great
payoffs. Since you see the
students everyday, not only
(are you) able to follow up with
their progress easily but also
they tend to be more condent
in the class, they get to know
their peers better as well as the
instructor.

New residence hall opens doors
Staff report
After about a year and a half,
the Nevada Living Learning
Community residence hall is
open for business.
The ve-story, 320-bed build-
ing is the ninth residence hall
at the University of Nevada,
Reno. It will house students
visiting campus for summer
orientation beginning June 18
and will host its rst batch of
residents beginning with the
fall semester.
The hall took a different ap-
proach from other residential
buildings, Assistant Director of
Residential Life Teresa Galvin
said: It will only house mem-
bers of the universitys living
learning communities and will
contain in-door bike storage,
four classrooms and 12 faculty
ofces.
It also has two libraries and
an open space administrators
are considering turning into
a student art gallery, Galvin
said.
Living learning communities
are groups of students who live
on campus and are all in the
same area of study. All nine of
these communities are being
relocated from other residence
halls to this one.
Because the new building
will be transferring the com-
munities, the overall number
of students living on campus
will remain the same, according
to Director of Residential Life
Jerome Maese. It will, however,
free up some space in other
residence halls many rooms
have been triple-booked in
years past to accommodate a
growing freshman class. This
fall, they will return to housing
two students per room.
The project cost about $32.9
million to the university, which
will be partially paid for with
money from the residents living
in it during the next 30 years,
Maese said.

Rental books surpass e-books
U
ndergraduates often encounter
graduate students and faculty
members scurrying down the
halls of Fleischmann Agriculture
or between buildings at the furious pace
of champion speed walkers closing in on
the nish line. Such
urgency, obviously due
to being on the verge of
a brilliant breakthrough,
is unhindered by the
heavy sack of books that
slows down so many new
students. Entry-level
texts, especially for the
sciences, can weigh in
pretty hefty and add
substantial ballast to
the backs of incoming
freshman.
While textbooks and reading are un-
avoidable in higher education, alternatives
to breaking your back and bank account
do exist. Electronic books, which are avail-
able online from publishers or through
open educational resources, are becoming
an increasingly common way to access
literature and texts. The Association of
American Publishers reported that e-book
sales accounted for 8.32 percent of total
book sales in 2010, up from 3.2 percent the
previous year. The immediate advantages of
an electronic text are apparent: lightweight
and easy to transport, multiple books in a
single device and instant downloading.
Another advantage should be a cheaper
price tag than a conventional book because
less paper is needed for digital printing.
Alas, not only are e-books often the same
price as hard copies, they may even have
higher environmental costs. The electronic
device used for online viewing, such as
an iPad or laptop, contains a lot of highly
processed non-renewable materials like
plastic and metals, unlike the plantable
trees that make up the bulk of paper books.
Accessing an e-book requires plugging into
a grid and continually consuming energy,
compared to a one-time investment for ink
printing that provides years of service.
A fair comparison of the materials going
into the production process and waste
coming out is notoriously difcult. One
single unit that can be used as a common
currency of energy efciency is carbon
emissions. Atmospheric carbon dioxide
produced by industry and transportation
contributes to warmer regional tempera-
tures, something you should care about if
you like snow sports, having clean water
to drink, irrigation for agriculture, or want
to reduce the risk of your elderly relatives
expiring from a summer heat wave.
Apples environmental report showed
that an iPad, in its lifetime, will generate
130 kilograms of carbon dioxide mostly
during production. A 2008 report released
by Green Press Initiative and Book Industry
Study Group estimated that the manufac-
ture and printing of a paper book will, on
average, produce four to seven kilograms of
carbon dioxide. Keep in mind that books
generally have a longer lifespan than an
iPad, and the environmental benets start
to weigh in their favor.
Both electronic and paper books take
a lot of energy and money to make and
move around. A much more energy and
cost efcient alternative is to purchase
used books, something budget conscious
students have been doing for decades.
Used books lose none of the information
contained within, yet take no more
energy to produce and much less energy to
transport when purchased locally.
The hitch is that used books can be in short
supply and quickly become outdated as
publishers release new editions every couple
of years, sometimes with no apparent gain for
the reader. Take, for example, Fundamentals
of Anatomy and Physiology, published by
Pearson Education. First printed in 1989
and now in its 11th edition, the book has
been updated every 2.44 years, on average. If
human physiology had upgraded at the same
rate, we could do amazing feats like clear
tall buildings with a single bound or sling
webbing from our wrists.
Fortunately, a simple solution is the
same as that applied by consumers
all over the world to make temporary
use of an expensive product or service
without having to pay full cost: rent it.
The Nevada Wolf Shop on campus has
thoughtfully established a system for
students to decide in the checkout line
whether to become owners or caretakers.
Aaron Ochoa on the Wolf Shop textbook
sales team is quick to acknowledge that
book rentals are up to half the price of a
new or used textbook, save the student
from having to find a used-book broker
and make outdated editions the problem
of the store, not the student. Best of all,
textbook timesharing saves energy that
would have been wasted on superfluous
shipping and printing, lessening the
global burden.
So take one for the team, dear freshmen,
and hump that load all the way up the hill.

Paper books might be more environmentally friendly than e-books because they have a longer
lifespan and produce less carbon dioxide emissions.
I
f you have nunchuck skills its safe to say youll be wildly
successful in life. But for those who dont heres a compilation of
skills you cant avoid acquiring during your freshman year.
PROFESSIONAL NAP-TAKING
As a college student, you will learn to become sufciently skillful
in the art of nap taking. It wont take long before
youll start being able to recognize professional
nap takers around campus. Watch for the guy in
the library, balancing himself on two chairs, face
squashed against the wall, with a Cheeto stuck to
his face. Individuals like this have reached their
peak of professionalism.
There are also always several professionals in
the back of every classroom whose capability of
drowning out the noise surrounding them is so
impressive that it will have you re-examining
whether Muscles Glasses eating a 216,960 calorie
bacon tree is really an impressive feat (it still is).
However, after a couple months youll be
able to fall asleep anywhere, anytime, with anyone around. Youll
learn to take advantage of the in-betweens, or periods when
you arent in class or studying in which everything else pales in
comparison to sleeping. For example, you could try dozing off
during trivial events such as phone calls from parents, conversa-
tions with signicant others, cousins birthday parties, or even
your parents vow renewals. These are all great times to catch up
on some extra zzzs, which youll soon be learning you need.
MAKING DC FOOD INTERESTING
Although my freshman year was down at Arizona State Univer-
sity, the dining situation is pretty similar to the Downunder Caf.
One bright side of living in the dorms, and therefore purchasing a
meal plan, is that it allowed me to constantly come up with new
ways for the same old foods to amuse me. About halfway through
my freshman year I was so tired with the food at the dining hall
I started inventing new ways to spice things up. Fries on a salad,
fruit in stir fries and ketchup on anything were just a few methods
I used to keep my taste buds guessing.
Another way my roommate and I kept food interesting was by
taking turns to see just how many squirts of sriracha sauce we
could handle, and by take turns I mean I would egg her on as she
loaded her plate with more and more sriracha.
BEING OPEN MINDED
One day during my freshman year I was badgered by a Christian
surveyor outside my residence hall. As I walked by, she asked me,
How do you see God? Before letting her list the options, I replied
with non-existent. We got into a religious debate, which ended in
her inviting me to attend church with her the following Sunday. For
some reason unbeknownst to me, I agreed to go.
After that Sunday, a friendship emerged that was fueled by
intense debates over long lunches wherein I was assured she
was trying to save me, whilst I was just amused with the
intellectual debate.
This girl is still a very good friend. She opened me up to a
plethora of new experiences, including teaching me how to play
guitar. She taught me that regardless of my own beliefs, I can
always learn something from someone elses. So even if you arent
as lucky as I was in being harassed by a surveyor, your freshman
year will still probably open your mind.

Freshman year
brings new skills
Both electronic and
paper books take
a lot of energy and
money to make and
move around. A much
more energy and cost
efcient alternative
is to purchase used
books, something
budget conscious
students have been
doing for decades.
I
ts dark, but I prefer it that
way. Its much more difcult
to be seen when youre hid-
ing in the shadows. I peek
my head out of hiding, making
sure that no one is near. I still
have a long
way to go
before I
reach my
target. I care-
fully sneak
out of hiding,
only to turn
a corner and
walk directly
in front of a
zombie. He
looks at me,
and without
hesitation
he runs at me with what seems
like inhuman speed. I tighten
my hand over the trigger and
pull it. Instead of hearing the
familiar sound of the projectile
leaving the barrel, all I get is
a gut-wrenching click. Its
jammed. I know if I want to
survive, I have only one option:
run.
No, Im not talking about
some post-apocalyptic zombie
story; this really happened. I
should probably clarify though.
Im the quartermaster (which
essentially means I help manage
players and funds) of Humans
Versus Zombies, one of many
clubs at UNR. The zombie
chasing me was also just a
student playing as a zombie,
and the weapon in my hand was
a Nerf gun.
The idea behind the game
is that all players start out
as humans, except for one
player who is a zombie. We
have a very specific set of rules
in order to avoid complete
chaos. For example, being
tagged by a zombie turns you
into one for the remainder of
the game. If youre a zombie
and youre shot by a human,
you are incapacitated for ten
minutes. Humans get to either
shoot at zombies with their
Nerf guns or chuck balled up
socks (grenades) at them to
incapacitate them.
We feature missions every
night, and there are small
miniature games inside
each main game. The game
continues until time has run
out or all humans have been
eliminated.
HVZ started just last year,
and has already blossomed
into a full-fledged club with
hundreds of participants each
event. It started as two smaller
games, but led to a very large
campus-wide event.
The club was also recently
awarded the ASUN Best New
Club of the Year Award at the
undergraduate student govern-
ments annual banquet. We have
a lot of aspirations for the game
next year, including renting out
Mackay Stadium to host games.
Were also always looking for
new players and fresh ideas.
So even if running around
shooting a Nerf gun whilst
throwing socks at fellow
students doesnt sound like an
amazing way to procrastinate
on homework to you, clubs
are still a great way to meet
people, and HVZ is proof that
UNR probably has a club for
whatever your interests are.

S
o youre nally done
with high school!
Gone are the days of
easy classes and over-
night essays. Youve transitioned
from an awkward teenager to
a new and
improved
college adult.
You cant wait
to meet new
people, show
up to classes
whenever
you want and
drink all the
beer you
could possibly
imagine.
But theres
a darker side.
Your parents are kicking you out
of the house and it wont be long
before they turn your room into
a nice storage space or in my
parents case, a new room to
explore their marriage. Classes
are tough and girls are less
likely to talk to you, but your
experience will be something
to remember forever. Heres
your chance to start anew and
meet great people whom youll
cherish forever.
In order to do that, youre
going to need a survival guide.
With these tips, youll be able to
face college a little easier.
TIP #1: RECOGNIZE YOUR
DORM MATE AS BOTH
FRIEND AND ENEMY
Now, I know living with
your parents is at the point
of excruciating torture for
most freshmen. They like to
announce every chance they get
how lazy you are, and never buy
the excuse But their parents
are going to be there! when you
want to go to a party at 1 a.m.
But let me give you a tip: Your
dorm mate isnt any better. Start
practicing the mantra, keep
your friends close and your
enemies closer. They arent
your parents. They wont be
okay with you bringing random
people into your room, and you
certainly never, ever get alone
time unless you time their vaca-
tion with your extracurricular
activities to a T.
Appreciate that you are shar-
ing a living space with another
person and apply the golden
rule to everything you do and I
promise your dorm mate wont
go all American Psycho and
slash your sheets while youre at
class.
TIP #2: ALWAYS HAVE A
DSF, OR A DESIGNATED
SOBER FRIEND
College is full of booze.
Anyone who tells you differently
either goes to Brigham Young
University, or was so drunk
during their college years they
actually forgot they went to
college.
Because of this, you always
need a DSF. A DSF is someone
who, for some unknown
terrible reason, has sworn off
drinking and will just go out
with you to hang out and not
drink.
There are people you will
meet who will seem like they
are your future spouse, when in
fact its just a homeless person
trying to score a meal.
A DSF will make sure you avoid
these very questionable and most
likely dangerous human beings.
They will also ensure that you
make it home with at least 90
percent of your clothing.
TIP #3: PUT YOURSELF OUT
THERE AND MEET PEOPLE!
The best thing about college
is the people you get to meet.
UNR may not be in New York
City or Los Angeles, but we
denitely have a diverse range
of students.
Its a great way to get to know
people youd never have the
chance to meet in high school
and create some long-lasting
relationships. Ive met a lot of
people through class, work and
living situations who are now
some of my closest friends.
Freshman orientation is a
great way to meet new people
too. Its easy to gather in groups,
introduce yourself, and go from
there.
Now, if youre the kid in the
back who is obsessed with
mastering World of Warcraft
and you cant seem to make
any friends in general, I
cant really help you. But
for everyone else, college is
definitely a good starting point
for friendships.
TIP #4: EAT
Remember to eat.
Ill be honest college really
isnt as hard as your high school
teachers made you prepare for,
but it also isnt as easy as your
parents think.
If you drink enough, sleep
enough, eat relatively well and
have some decent pals along
the way, you can make your
college experience go from
lame to awesome unless
youre that weird World of
Warcraft kid. Ive really got
nothing for you.

STEM degrees obtainable
I
t was only 90 years ago that
a decent amount of people
thought women were too
dumb to vote just because of
our lady parts. And, like it or not,
gender inequality still exists.
We live in a
culture where
both males
and females
place a lot
of value on a
girls physical
appearance. I
only recently
got over car-
ing whether
or not
strangers nd
me attractive.
Why should I care about their
opinions when I have so much
more going for me?
A lot of my condence comes
from knowing that Im succeed-
ing in a challenging eld, and it
pains me to see countless other
girls without this condence.
So many intelligent young
women arent living up to
their potential. This might be
because they dont think theyre
smart enough, or because they
dont want to be challenged.
Although the amount of
women getting degrees in STEM
(science, technology, engineer-
ing and math) elds has been
slowly increasing, we still have a
long way to go toward improv-
ing the gender ratio.
An intelligent friend of mine
once claimed that math just
wasnt his thing. Well I hate to
break it to you, but no one bursts
from the womb understanding
differential equations and quan-
tum mechanics. And that one
super smart kid that everyone
had in their high school class? I
guarantee that at some point a
new concept confused them.
A lot of intelligent people
get scared off from entering
a science or engineering eld
because they hear horror
stories about the complexity of
the classes. They assume that if
its difcult for smart people,
theyll be totally lost. What
they dont understand is that
everyone entering that eld is
on the same page. Just because
you werent good at math in
high school doesnt mean you
cant succeed in engineering.
This doesnt mean that a
degree in a STEM eld isnt a
challenging degree to obtain,
because it honestly is. However,
you shouldnt let that keep you
from striving to obtain a degree
that will open up so many
amazing career paths.
Theres a reason why employ-
ers want people with STEM
degrees. You have to be a
tenacious pitbull to get through
it. But its 100 percent doable.
Male or female, getting a
degree in a STEM eld is one of
the best life decisions you can
make. Youll be miles ahead of
other job applicants, even for
non-STEM work.
I have seen too many intel-
ligent people opt out of STEM
programs because theyre too
hard. Well, life should be hard.
If it isnt, youre doing it wrong.
Even if science and engineer-
ing truly isnt your thing, Id
encourage you to try something
academically challenging.
So ladies, regardless of what
you choose to do in life, please
remember that you are more
than a pretty face, and that
nothing worth having should
ever come easily.

Lacrosse club
preps for playoffs
The Nevada mens lacrosse club nished second in thh

will compete in the WCLL playoffs Saturday vs. the U U

By Chris Boline
A snapped stick, a smashed
racket and broken PlayStation
controllers all are casualties of
losing your cool. It happens to
all of us and can severely affect
your performance in all areas of
life. But for the Wolf Pack mens
lacrosse club, nding a way to

channel this negative energy

into something positive will ulti-
mately determine how its season
will turn out.
The team started the season
with a new head coach its
fourth in the last four years
and with 19 of the teams 28
members being underclassmen
(freshmen and sophomores),
the transition has been rocky at
times. But rst-year head coach

Chris Tatro has kept the teams

ship steady and has the Wolf
Pack second in its league with
a divisional record of 4-2. And
with a rematch vs. the University
of California, Santa Cruz to start
the playoffs in the West Coast
Lacrosse League set for Saturday,
Nevada is hoping to continue its
unexpected ascent.
Starting the season in Febru-
ary, the team went 3-1 with wins
over Paci c, the University of

California, Merced and San Jose

State. Nevada then lost two of its
next three games, including a
heartbreaking double overtime
loss to Utah State on March 17.
But the teams season-low
came in a 22-2 thumping at
Chico State on April 8. Normally,
a brutal defeat like this would
cause a team to unravel. But the
players kept it together.
(The loss) to me was the
most important game on the
season for us, because it showed
our true character and that our
team is moree
years, Tatro o

BASEBALL
By Art Miner
With only two conference
series left in the season before
the Western Athletic Confer-
ence Tournament, this week-
ends series against Fresno
State was a must-win for the
Wolf Pack baseball team.
Thanks to some clutch hitting
and a strong starting pitching
rotation, Nevada took two
games out of three from the
Bulldogs and moved to second
place in the WAC standings.
Coming into this weekend,
the Wolf Pack knew how im-
portant this series would be.
This was a huge win for this
team, head coach Gary Pow-
ers said. This helped put us in
a spot where we are contend-
ers for the championship.
After winning these last
two games, the Wolf Pack (7-5
WAC) is now tied with Sacra-
mento State for second place
behind New Mexico State (7-2
WAC)
ves the pair a combined
record of 13-4 for the season.

from the University of Nevada,
Reno Police Department.
For many victims, a combina-
tion of factors creates the im-
pression that reporting the crime
is a waste of time, Daigle said.
College sexual assaults usually
dont involve violence, so many
feel the crime would be difcult
to provide evidence for. Others
were underage and intoxicated
during the crime, and are afraid
to risk being cited for minor in
possession and consumption,
she said.
But while the crimes are not
known to the general public, the
information usually gets out in
smaller doses.
Women on college campuses
dont routinely tell police, Daigle
said. But they do tell somebody.
So they are disclosing their expe-
riences, usually to their friends.
UNRPD Chief Adam Garcia
said often crimes are dif cult
for them to prove because of
con icting statements or a lack

Exploring the hidden
treasures of campus
ARTISTIC STAIRWELL
ANTHROPOLOGY MUSEUM
RECORDING STUDIO
Matt Lush/Nevada Sagebrush
Painted, written and sculpted artwork adorns the walls of this unique stairway in the Church Fine Arts building.
Tucked away on the northern
end of the Church Fine Arts
building is a colorful landscape
of artistic freedom, a living can-
vas of student work and passion
inside a stairwell.
Since at least 2004, students
have painted, spraypainted,
drawn and tacked art projects
on the stairwell, often creating
art on top of other pieces. Amid
the work is a giant sh-man
beast, several homages to secre-
tive campus personality IX
and messages reminiscent of
those one might nd scratched
into the door of a bathroom stall
on the interstate.
Erik Burke, a former art stu-
dent at the University of Nevada,
Reno, believes hes the one who
started the movement to cover
the stairwell in art. When he and
a friend visiting from Seattle
decided to spraypaint and paint
15-foot-high, grafti-style let-
ters on the walls in 2004, it was
blank.
Burke, a street artist, felt that
it was tting for a school of the
arts.
It was art school and (I was)
paying tuition, he said.
Soon afterward, Burke started
to notice other pieces spring-
ing up in the stairwell. Despite
receiving no authorization from
administrators, the often giant
pieces of student artwork stood
proud and unwashed.
Though he was happy to see
more art in the stairwell, he feels
that its become crowded now. It
covers almost every inch of wall,
splatters onto the stairs and
creeps onto the ceiling.
Its very democratic in the
sense that everyone can par-
ticipate and everyone should
participate and theres really no
right or wrong answer, he said.
Among many treasures in the
Mathewson-IGT Knowledge
center, one remains largely
out of sight in the @one center
on the rst oor: a recording
studio with high-quality equip-
ment.
The room houses two pro-
fessional-grade microphones,
a MIDI keyboard and a com-
puter loaded with software
such as Pro Tools and Logic,
according to Dynamic Media
Lab Manager Daniel Fergus.
The studio is open to any-
body with a NetID and has
been home to people ranging
from musicians to students
doing video projects. Any not-
for-prot project is welcome.
Matt Lush/Nevada Sagebrush
Students edit a video project in the recording room June 7.
The universitys anthropol-
ogy museum contains several
Nevada history exhibits and
about 1,800 boxes of artifacts
from the Great Basin but
with its cramped location
in a back corner on the fth
oor of Ansari Business, its no
wonder the museum doesnt
get much foot trafc.
The museum mainly holds
artifacts related to regional
Native American tribes from
as far back as 1850 and is
available for research as well
as student visits, said museum
technician Sarah Heffner.

The guide to Reno
By Zoe Wentzel
Reno is much more than casinos and gambling. Hidden throughout the city you can nd exciting
places and things to do. Even if you think you know everywhere you want to go, consider these places
that you might have otherwise passed over.
Rancho San Rafael Park: Sure its hard to miss, but dont leave this park unexplored. Many people
take the hike up to the N, but few fully explore the giant park that is Rancho. Here you can do just
about anything. One of the best places to visit is the gazebo on top the hill nearest North McCarran
Avenue. This spot gives you an amazing view of downtown Reno and the rest of the park.
Cargo at CommRow: Cargo is a fairly new addition to Renos concert venue scene. With shows and
18+ parties nearly every weekend, this is the place to go if you want to go out in downtown Reno but
arent 21 yet. Be sure to check out Cali Swag District on July 28, and maybe youll learn how to Dougie.
Reno Tattoo Company: Looking to express your newfound college freedom? Stop by Reno Tattoo.
They have a great deal on piercings $25, and on the last Friday of each month all piercings are $10.
It may seem like a less-than-stellar location, but the people inside are nice, friendly and have your
safety in mind.
Golden Flower: Depending on where youre from, you might or might not have tried pho (pro-
nounced fuh, not foe). Its a Vietnamese noodle soup that comes in a giant bowl for a small price.
There are several pho places in Reno, but Golden Flower is one of the best. Not only is it delicious, but
its open until 3 a.m., its cheap and its incredibly lling.
Blind Onion: Blind Onion is some of the best pizza you can nd in Reno. If you want to take a break
from Dominos delivery at the dorms, stop by one of the Blind Onion locations. It might not be as cheap
as other pizza locations, but they make up for it in taste. Their crust is delicious and its even better
dipped in the honey they put out at every table.
Top Deck: Although you might be one of the youngest customers there, the Top Deck restaurant in
Cal Neva is a great deal if youre on a tight budget. They have a value menu that can get you a decent
steak and fries for $4.99. If youre not afraid to sacrice atmosphere for a good deal, Top Deck is the
place to go. They also happen to be open 24 hours.
MUST-DO ACTIVITIES
Bowling at the Grand Sierra Resort: Although its a semi-lengthy drive from campus, bowling at
the Grand Sierra can be a lot of fun. Unlike the other activities at the GSR, the bowling alley is open 24
hours a day. The usual midnight bowling black lights and loud music make it even more fun. Plus, if
you wear white and a lot of bright colors youll glow.
Reno Aces: While Nevada doesnt have any professional teams, you can still support the local minor
league baseball team, the Reno Aces. The stadium is downtown near Harrahs. Attending an Aces game
is a great, affordable way to spend a few hours with your friends. General admission is $7 and up, and
they usually have special promo nights.
The Great Reno Balloon Race: The Reno Balloon Race, which is Sept. 7-9, is one of the most spec-
tacular things you can do in this city. Plus, its completely free and conveniently located in Rancho San
Rafael park. Its also the largest free balloon race in the country. If youre willing to wake up before the
sun rises, dawn patrol is not to be missed. All the balloons lighting up in the dark are beautiful sights
to see.

Didnt get that sports scholarship? No problem
G
ameday at a Division I University is
an unrivaled experience in the life of
a college student. Whether youre an
undergraduate or graduate student,
faculty, alumni, or just a sports fan, you can
nd whatever might tickle your fancy at the
stadium or arena. While we are not all cut from
the same genetic cloth as
Division I athletes, enhancing
your interest in the university
through athletics is much
easier than you might think.
By joining a student-based
group such as the Blue Crew
or getting your drink on at
a tailgate, you can support
the Wolf Pack in a variety of
ways. But if merely spectating
is not your cup of tea, and your
competitive re still burns,
the well has not run dry for a
student to accomplish his or her athletic goals
through a club or intramural opportunity.
The Blue Crew began during the 2003-2004 Wolf
Pack mens basketball season where the team made
a miraculous run to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA
tournament. The group is a raucous bunch of
students who support the Wolf Pack decked out in
silver and navy blue with their trademark Blue Crew
t-shirts (these are free if you decide to join the group
and meet the clubs requirements). Theyve formed
a formidable cheering section in the campus
athletic facilities.
Dylan Mooney is the man behind the mask of
Alphie, one of the schools mascots whose other
half Wole is the reigning mascot of the
year in a national competition. Mooney said his
decision in becoming the man behind the Alphie
mask was based on history.
The tradition (is why I do it), Mooney said. Its
exciting to do more things that enrich your experi-
ence here. I want people to be excited on campus
for what were trying to accomplish. It offers a huge
sense of community and pride for everyone.
If you are a new student that is of legal drinking
age, tailgating is another good outlet to meet
new people and enjoy the festivities of gameday.
However, ghting is discouraged before, during
and after the game. The ass-kicking will most
likely happen on the eld.
The life of a college student can be stressful, so
if you need to blow off steam there are outlets on
campus that can keep oneself from throwing a
Macbook through your dorm window.
The Lombardi Recreation Center is the chief
place for students to get their pump on and
meet new people through a drop-in class of
Crosst or simply running on the treadmills.
Many incoming freshman are skilled athletes
in their own right and even though they arent
part of a school-sanctioned sport, they can still
join an intramural or club team.
Jim Fitzsimmons is the Director at Lombardi
Recreation Center he is also the most interesting
man on campus; ask him about working out if you
ever get a chance and has a very positive take on
what the center can do for a students experience
through intramural sports or just working out.
Student recreation centers are typically the
primary social hub on campus, Fitzsimmons said.
Were open the longest and have the most people
going in and out throughout the day. A big part of
(Lombardi) is the social networking through the
different kinds of activities we offer here.
He echoed some other positive points about
intramural and club sports. The intramural
sports are run through Lombardi.
Intramurals (and clubs) offer a sense of
community that is bigger than yourself, he
said. Club sports have been rising since the
1970s, so they offer some accomplished athletes
an opportunity to continue what they love or
try something new. The biggest thing, though, is
that (it) offers a sense of belonging and group of
friends that they can always hang out with.
Colby Fountain, co-captain of Wolf Pack
Lacrosse Club, said his team has added another
dimension to his collegiate career.
Ive always played sports throughout my life
and Ive met a lot of good friends (that way),
Fountain said. So to continue to do something
that I love and I am passionate about is just plain
fun when you get right down to it. You meet new
people that you normally wouldnt meet through
a class or just walking around on campus. Then
you start to develop close bonds with these guys
that hopefully end up lasting a lifetime.
There are many other different clubs on
campus that offer whatever your primary interest
might be, but something you never knew you
liked before might just be waiting for you on the
intramural elds.

The guide to being a fantastic fan
Want to be the second coming of the guy in the
photo? It wont happen overnight. It takes work.
Commitment. Dedication. It takes leaving your
one-man wolf pack and joining the true Wolf Pack.
FIGHT SONG
One of the most important
parts of becoming a well-versed
fan is knowing the school ght
song like the back of your hand.
This song is usually blasted
through the Mackay Stadium
speakers after a Nevada touch-
down or at halftime of a basket-
ball game. Memorize it. Here
it is:
HAIL to our sturdy team, loyal
and true,
MARCH, march on down the
eld oh Silver and Blue!
Well give a long cheer for NE-
VADAs team,
See them break through again,
Fighting for our own U of N to
victory.
N - E - V - A - D - A
NEVADA!
THE LAW OF THE
JUNGLE
The name says it all this
chant is law round these parts.
Led by the student section, it is
usually chanted before home
football and basketball games.
The chant goes a little some-
thing like this:
Now this is the Law of the Jungle
as old and as true as the sky;
And the wolf that shall keep it
may prosper, but the wolf that
shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the
tree-trunk the Law runneth for-
ward and back
For the strength of the pack is
the wolf, and the strength of the
wolf is the pack.
*This is followed by a wolfs
howl played over the stadium
sound system and echoed
throughout the venue by the
fans in attendance.

KNOW WHERE TO
PARK
There are few things worse
than trying to nd a parking
spot for a big sporting event on
campus. But more than 2,000
free parking spots are available
to Wolf Pack fans on game day!
Spots can be found on levels 4-6
of West Stadium Parking Com-
plex directly west of Mackay
Stadium, Brian Whalen Parking
Garage and lots surrounding
Peccole Park.
FACTS ONLY, PLEASE
We can all agree that the
most annoying person at a
sporting event is the one shout-
ing out wrong, inaccurate sta-
tistics or facts about the oppos-
ing team. We all have a person
like that in our entourage and if
you say you dont, its probably
you.
But lets avoid that problem
by getting educated. Here are
some must-know facts for all
Wolf Pack fans:
From rie to golf to swim-
ming and diving, Nevada has
16 NCAA-sanctioned sports
programs 6 mens and 10
womens teams.
Across all sports, Nevada ath-
letics is no stranger to greatness.
The Wolf Pack has hoisted 115
national and conference cham-
pionships in 16 different sports.
Moreover, 213 different athletes
have earned all-American hon-
ors wearing silver and blue.
The rivalry between Nevada
and the University of Nevada,
Las Vegas is second to none, as
is the trophy the two foes com-
pete for in the annual Battle for
Nevada football game. Built in
1970, the cannon is awarded to
the winning team and painted
the school color of the winner.
The cannon has been painted
blue for the past seven years.
Nevadas athletic teams were
originally known as the Sage-
brushers, after the state ower.
Lawlor Events Center is
named after legendary Nevada
coach Glenn Jake Lawlor.
Probably the most important
point is: Its Nevada, not Nev-
ah-duh!

BASEBALL
NEVADA WINS FIRST EVER
WAC CHAMPIONSHIP
For the first time in the Wolf
Packs 12-year run in the Western
Athletic Conference, Nevada
baseball was crowned regular
season WAC Champions. With
a 31-23, 11-7 WAC record, the
silver and blue earned a share
of the title with New Mexico
State and Sacramento State.
Nevada earned the No. 3 seed
in the WAC Tournament.
Junior Carlos Escobar Jr.
scorched a walk-off solo home
run in the opening round of the
tournament against Louisiana
Tech to lift the Wolf Pack to a
4-3 victory. Nevada would lose
the next two games 15-5 and
18-8 to Sacramento State and
Louisiana Tech, to end their bid
for a WAC championship.
SOFTBALL
WOLF PACKS SEASON
COMES TO CLOSE IN WAC
TOURNAMENT
The University of Nevadas rst
WAC Tournament appearance
in three years was cut short by
two heartbreaking defeats. In
the tournament opener, the
Wolf Pack blew a 6-2 lead to San
Jose State before losing 9-6. With
their backs against the wall in
the losers bracket, the Wolf Pack
squandered another lead, this
time 5-2, against Louisiana Tech,
dropping the elimination game
6-5 to put a halt to its season.
The defeat put Nevadas record
at 21-36 for the year.
The group was led by
sophomore outfielder Sara
Parsons, who was chosen to
First Team All-WAC. During
WAC play, Parsons batted a
team-high .368 and notched
a league-leading eight
doubles. Parsons was joined
by outfielder Chelsea Barilli,
shortstop Karley Hopkins and
pitcher Karlyn Jones, who were
selected to Second Team All-
WAC.
MENS GOLF
LUCAS TIES FOR 48TH AT
NCAA REGIONALS
Senior Kevin Lucas earned
a trip to the University of
Oklahoma, competing for
the National Collegiate
Athletic Association Regional
Championship. Lucas became
the fourth consecutive Wolf
Pack golfer to earn an at-large
bid to the championship. The
event featured 14 five-player
teams and five individuals,
Lucas being one of them.
Lucas failed to qualify for
the NCAA Championship,
finishing the 54-hole event
12-over 228, which put him
in a tie for 45th. The event
was Lucas last in a Nevada
uniform. A two-time All-WAC
selection, Lucas finished his
collegiate career with a stroke
average of 72.1 during his
senior year.
BASEBALL
WOLF PACK PLAYERS
RECEIVE ACCOLADES
A slew of Nevada baseball
student-athletes were on the
receiving end of awards this
summer. Perhaps none bigger
than catcher Carlos Escobar Jr.,
who was selected by the Chicago
Cubs in the 15th round of the
2012 Major League Baseball
draft. The junior batted .283 with
28 runs scored, 14 doubles, a
triple, ve home runs and 38 RBI
last season. He started 51 games
behind the plate.
On the mound, sophomore
hurler Bradey Shipley earned
WAC Pitcher of the Year honors.
The Medford, Ore. native started
six games for Nevada during
conference play, registering a
1.64 ERA. Shipley recorded a
4-2 record against WAC foes,
and fanned 37 hitters. The right-
hander was named First Team
All-WAC. Teammates Escobar,
outelder Brooks Klein and
pitcher Tom Jameson also earned
rst team honors.
On top of a Second Team
All-WAC nod, freshman slugger
Kewby Meyer was named to the
Louisville Slugger Freshman All-
America team. The rst baseman
is the seventh Wolf Pack player to
receive the honor. Meyer started
52 games, hitting .324 with 23
runs scored, nine doubles, two
triples, home run and 34 RBI in
his rst season.

By Eric Uribe
Despite reaching seven con-
secutive bowl games and nish-
ing 7-6 last year, the Wolf Pack
football team enters the 2012
season with more questions
than answers.
Key playmakers from last
season were either drafted into
the NFL linebacker James-
Michael Johnson (Cleveland
Browns), linebacker Brandon M.
Marshall (Jacksonville Jaguars),
cornerback Isaiah Frey (Chicago
Bears) and wide receiver Rishard
Mathews (Miami Dolphins)
or graduated.
Moreover, Nevadas days in the
Western Athletic Conference are
done, while its time in the more
highly-contested Mountain
West Conference lay ahead.
No doubt about it, the upcom-
ing year promises to be an uphill
battle for Nevada.
With that said, 2012 is far from
a rebuilding year. The pieces
are still in place for the Wolf
Pack to compete for its eighth
bowl game in a row.
OFFENSE
At the helm of Nevadas offense
is sophomore quarterback Cody
Fajardo. The Brea, Calif. native is
coming off an impressive rookie
campaign where he accumulated
more than 2,400 yards in the air
and on the ground, racked up
17 touchdowns and was named
WAC Freshman of the Year.
Fajardo will be at the trigger
of Nevadas renowned Pistol
Offense, created by Nevadas
own head coach Chris Ault. The
blueprint for the offense puts
the quarterback in a shotgun
formation standing three yards
behind the offensive line not
the usual ve yards. The running
back stands directly behind
the eld general, opening the
oodgates for a potent running
attack. Behind the pistol offense,
the Wolf Pack chewed up 3,218
rushing yards last season, 10th
best in the nation. The offense
is tailored for dual-threat signal
callers. With blazing speed and
respectable throwing mechan-
ics, Fajardo was made for the
scheme.
However, the big question is:
Can Fajardo stay healthy during
the course of a 12-game season?
The six-foot-two, 205-pound
Fajardo was hampered by
injuries last season and missed
three games. The quarterback
position is thin after Fajardo,
with inexperienced sophomore
Devin Combs and redshirt
freshman Tanner Roderick vy-
ing for the backup spot. If (and
its a big if ) Fajardo can endure
the grueling season, the skys
the limit for the signal caller.
Another question mark on
offense is at the running back.
The starting job is wide-open
with the top candidates being
junior Stefphon Jefferson, senior
Nick Hale and redshirt fresh-
man Tony Knight. Either way,
Nevadas proven to be a running
back factory through the years.
Tack on a punishing offensive
lineman and any of the three
rushers can thrive.
Like the running back job, the
wide receiver position is there
for the taking with four of Fa-
jardos top targets in 2011 gone.
One of the favorites has to be
senior Brandon Wimberly, who
missed the entire 2011 season
after being shot in the abdomen.
Wimberly caught 41 passes for
482 yards two seasons ago. Re-
covering from the wounds is still
a long haul for the senior, but he
is showing signicant progress.
DEFENSE
Nevadas front seven is perhaps
its biggest hole. Five of last years
starters are out the door. The
most notable departure is defen-
sive end Brett Roy, who recorded
10 sacks and 18.5 tackles for loss
in 2011. To make up for Roys pro-
duction, the Wolf Pack will rely on
returning starter Jack Reynoso to
anchor the defensive line, along
with a slew of newcomers. A pair
of names to look out for up front
are junior college transfer Cortez
Woods and redshirt freshman
Rykeem Yates.
With the defects of lineback-
ers Johnson and Marshall to the
NFL, the Wolf Pack is losing a
combined 202 tackles from last
year. However, the unit will be
aided by the return of DeAndre
Boughton, who missed the
entire 2011 campaign with a
broken leg. Boughton will be
completed by pass-swatting
linebacker Jeremiah Green and
Albert Rosette, who started on
the defensive line last season.
Unlike nearly every other posi-
tion, Nevada is solid in the sec-
ondary with seven of last seasons
eight players returning. Atop the
unit are a pair of seniors safety
Duke Williams and cornerback
Khalid Wooten. Williams was
third on the squad with 83 tackles,
while Wooten intercepted four
passes in 2011. If the front seven
can apply pressure to opposing
quarterbacks, Nevadas second-
ary has all the tools to become a
shutdown unit.
COACHING
The Wolf Pack has a lot of holes
to plug up and down the roster,
but with Ault, returning for his
28th season at the helm theres
no counting out the squad.
Joining the Hall of Fame coach
will be former Hawaii offensive
coordinator Nick Rolovich, who
will call plays for Nevadas of-
fense.
Rolovich spent the last four
years constructing one of the
nations most pass-happy of-
fenses at Hawaii. It should be
interesting to see how Rolovichs
style blends with Aults run-it-
down-your-throat attack.
At the defensive coordina-
tor position, Mike Bradeson
will replace Andy Buh, who is
now coaching at Wisconsin.
Bradeson commanded Ne-
vadas secondary the two years
prior. The defense will look to
keep up to par with the Wolf
Packs high-octane offense.
With the jump in conference
and inux of new players and
coaches, one things for sure this
upcoming season: Nevada has
essentially a clean slate. What
mark it stamps into the MWC
and the universitys history is in
its hands.

DT Cortez Woods: Woods recorded 6.5 sacks and 18.5
tackles for loss at American River last year. The defensive tackle
is lightning-quick off the ball, and is primed to give opposing
quarterbacks nightmares.
LB Albert Rosette: At six-foot-two and 245-pounds, Rosette
could be a force to be reckoned up front. Besides his eye-catching
size, Rosette has the athleticism to be a run-stufng force . He
made 32 tackles with two sacks last season.
