NEWS
(Bloomington, Ind.) Police say
they suspect foul play in the disap-
pearance of a 20-year-old Indiana
University student fve days ago,
but have little information about
what happened to her. Dozens of
volunteers headed back out Tuesday
looking for signs of Lauren Spierer
in the area where she was last seen
walking alone about 4:30 a.m. Friday
toward her apartment in downtown
Bloomington. City police Lt. Bill Parker
said investigators have Spierers cell
phone, purse and some keys but that
they arent sure whether she left them
behind before she went missing follow-
ing a night of partying with friends.
(Buenos Aires, Argentina) Stiff winds blew ash from
a Chilean volcano Tuesday in a widening arc across
Argentina to the capital, grounding most air travel to
and from the country. Since airborne ash can severely
damage jet engines, Aerolineas Argentinas and Austral,
the countrys state-owned international and domestic
airlines, canceled all fights within Argentina as well
as to and from other countries until further notice. At
least six international carriers also suspended fights
through Wednesday between Buenos Aires and cities in
the United States, Europe and South America.
(Warsaw, Poland) NATO and Russia teamed up Tuesday to test their
ability to fght terrorism, using a military transport plane to simulate a
hijacking over Poland and sending in fghter planes to save it, an off-
cial said. It was the frst time NATO and Russia, which doesnt belong to
the alliance, had conducted such an anti-terrorism exercise together.
(Shanghi, China) A toxic chemical spilled into a river that supplies drink-
ing water to the scenic city of Hangzhou in eastern China, knocking out
supplies to more than half a million people and creating a run on bottled
water. A tanker truck carrying 20 tons of carbolic acid overturned late Sat-
urday night. The chemical, also known as phenol, was washed by rain into
the Xinan River about 90 miles southwest of Hangzhou, the city said in a
report on its website.
(Tripoli, Libya ) Moammar Gadhaf stood defant Tuesday in the face of the heaviest and most
punishing NATO airstrikes yet at least 40 thunderous daylight attacks that sent plumes of
smoke billowing above the Libyan leaders central Tripoli compound. In late afternoon and as
the strikes continued, Libyan state television broadcast an audio address from Gadhaf, who
denounced NATO and the rebels challenging his rule. He vowed never to surrender.We will not
kneel! he shouted.

Tis past spring, about 1.65 mil-
lion young men and women gradu-
ated from colleges and universities in
the United States. With the nations
unemployment rate soaring, these
masses of young people are about to
compete in the toughest job market
in decades. Soon, if they havent al-
ready, graduates will be on their own
and forced to contemplate which
graduate school to attend or which
city to live in for the foreseeable fu-
ture.
Paul Jury, author of States of Con-
fusion, decided to take a seven-week
road trip to all 48 states afer he grad-
uated from Northwestern University,
chosing an unconvential post-gradu-
ation experience of joblessness. His
car broke down every two states, he
was stung by a jellyfsh in Florida and
he dropped his only set of car keys in
a snake infested river in southern
Missouri.
If you know what you love, go do
it, Jury said. If you dont know, go
try something new because no mat-
ter what, youll get a cool story out
of it.
Chances are that many of the 2011
graduates are feeling the same way
Jury did confused about their
direction in life afer completing
roughly four years of academic work
as an undergradu-
ate. What gradu-
ates need to know
though is that itll
be fne in the end
because now they
can proudly say
that theyre in that
small percentage
of Americans who
have earned a col-
lege degree, Jury
said.
College graduates have many op-
tions, and one that many people tend
to ignore is to take any job that is of-
fered to them in the beginning.
Its OK to have multiple jobs in
the frst couple of years afer college.
Graduates who go right into success-
ful jobs dont usually keep them any-
ways. So I say go ahead and choose
bizarre or interesting jobs because
they always give great life stories,
Jury said.
For graduates who have already
chosen a path to travel down, theres
always helpful advice when it comes
to a profession. Megan Hill, associ-
ate director at the
University Ca-
reer Center, said
that being able
to pay attention
and listen is very
important in any
workforce.
Observe your
s ur r oundi ng s
itll give you
a better under-
standing of the culture youve been
placed into, Hill said. Also, its im-
portant to dress appropriately and
to avoid getting sucked into ofce
drama.

Win prizes, hang by the pool,
and meet your new neighbors!
Life is wonderfully delicate.
A meteorite could crash
through your roof at any
moment. You could get hit by a
car, or choke on a salami sand-
wich tomorrow. There are so
many variable factors that noth-
ing is ever completely in our
control. In the end, the world is a
terrifying place.
The recent devastation of the
Joplin tornado and the tragic
shooting death in Costa Rica
of Justin Johnston, a student at
McLouth High School, have been
sad reminders of the briefness of
our lives; a frightening realiza-
tion that our own destruction is
as unpredictable as it is immi-
nent.
But in spite of the dangers
and sadness in the world, people
still get up every day and live
their lives. We do not cower
in windowless rooms, count-
ing the possible ways we could
perish. Instead we have hopes
and dreams and goals. We live
for something and that is what
makes life so special.
This summer, try something
new, and be unafraid to experi-
ence life. These are the days
when we have all the time in the
world to make mistakes, to learn,
to make some more mistakes and
grow from them. Time to cut
loose and play. Learn the balance
of responsibility to others and
your responsibility to yourself to
live your life.
Make this your summer of
love. Your summer of friend-
ship. Your summer of adventure.
This summer can be whatever
you want it to be. Just be sure to
make it yours. Take your future
into your own hands. Dont wait
for someone to tell you what to
do or where to go. Seize all the
clichs and days you can!
The human spirit is a won-
drous thing, I marvel at the cour-
age we all use each day without
even realizing it. We are fearless
and courageous and optimistic.
These are what fuels me to try
everything I can, while I still can.
Settling leads to missed opportu-
nities. Even though it gets hard
to constantly keep putting myself
out there and taking chances, I
dont ever want to forget that life
requires living.

international business and jour-
nalism from Baltimore.

Once upon a time, we lived
in a world in which it was more
difcult to cheat. You had to, you
know, actually see someone face-
to-face, or at least hear the sound
of his or her voice to engage in
some sort of sexual activity.
But thanks to the internet,
men like Rep. Anthony Weiner
(D-N.Y.) can cheat from anywhere
they damn well please, with their
poor wives a few feet away assum-
ing they are just simply checking
Facebook and work e-mail.
And yes, in my book, send-
ing sexually suggestive photo-
graphs and engaging in sexually
inappropriate conversations is
cheating. Call me old-fashioned,
but deceptively going behind your
wifes back to send and receive
sexually arousing photographs and
take part in sexually inappropriate
conversations qualifes as cheating.
Its actually kind of worse than
cheating; its lazy, spineless cheat-
ing. It requires a few clicks and
some erotic electronic communi-
cation.
On May 27, Weiners Twitter
account posted a link to a sexually
suggestive photo of what appeared
to be his groin area in gray boxers,
directed at Gennette Cordova, a
21-year-old college student.
Afer a week of denying and
claiming his account was hacked,
the representative fnally admitted
to more than just dirty tweeting in
a press conference on Monday.
He admitted to engaging in sev-
eral inappropriate conversation
conducted over Twitter, Facebook,
e-mail and occasionally over the
phone with women he had met
online over the past few years.
But heres the kicker, he claims
he never actually had sex with
them.
So let me get this straight. An
elected member of Congress ac-
cidently tweeted a picture of his
penis, which was supposed to be
just for one college student, but
instead was momentarily shown to
the world. Ten he lied, claiming
that hackers got into his account,
labeling it as a cyber security is-
sue. Ten, he fnally admitted to
not only being a complete social
media moron by accidently
tweeting, but that he also spent the
last few years online engaging in
similar sexually explicit conversa-
tions, and never actually had sex?
Do these not sound like the ac-
tions of an insecure 16-year-old?
It looks like Weiners run for
mayor is ofcially over and his
political career is starting a down-
ward spiral towards the drain. It
doesnt even matter if he had sex
with these women or not (not that
I believe him that he didnt).
First of, his confession was a
week too late. Anyone with half a
brain knows that something this
scandalous wasnt going to fade
easily. Te clean-up work would
have been much easier if he was
honest from the beginning.
Most importantly, his patheti-
cally promiscuous actions online
also show Weiner is not ft for
Congress.
Anyone in charge of any sort of
serious decisions for the well being
of the United States should know
how dim-witted online dating,
sexting and other inappropriate
cyber engagements are. Te Tiger
Woods scandal should have shown
cheating men of celebrity status
that women arent afraid to come
forward with proof, pictures and
a full confession (especially when
there is media money involved).
Tis is the Information Age,
people. Everything is documented.
Especially when youre wise
enough to do a majority of your
cheating on social media websites.
Its pretty ridiculous to see a
talented politician willing to risk
his reputation and career for some
sexual attention online.
Yes, cheating is easier these
days, but its also easier to get
caught. And if Weiner is impudent
enough to tweet a picture of his
private area for the world to see, I
dont really know what other dam-
age hes capable of.
He hasnt resigned and contin-
ues to say hell remain in ofce.
But, just like my mom used to
always warn me as a teenager, a
damaged reputation never goes
away. Especially with a name like
Weiner.

Although hormonal birth control is
widely used, more than half of women
who use it say they arent satisfed.
Last year, a study published by the
Journal of Family Practice found that
57 percent of women using the pill
werent happy with it. Reasons for re-
ported dissatisfaction included depres-
sion, decreased libido and health con-
cerns such as blood clots or stroke.
Despite the disadvantages, the Food
and Drug Administration lists the pill
as the most used form of contracep-
tion by women in their 20s, even more
popular than condoms.
Women use the pill because it al-
lows them to control their own fertil-
ity, said Sue McDonald, a registered
nurse in charge of the Lawrence-
Douglas County Health Departments
Family Planning and Sexually Trans-
mitted Disease Program. Its the most
popular method, especially for young-
er women who have not had children
yet.
Te pill works by combining es-
trogen and progesterone that allows
women to control their fertility.
Te Lawrence-Douglas County
Health Department provides contra-
ception to more than 4,000 women a
year.
Te pill is our most popular con-
traception, Lisa Horn, communica-
tions coordinator for the Health De-
partment. We ofer other services,
such as measuring for diaphragms,
but those really arent common any-
more.
Although the pill is the most com-
mon contraception, it is not always the
safest or the most efective, according
to some health ofcials.
Many women experience mood
changes or nausea, McDonald said.
More serious, but rare, risks include
blood clots and stroke.
Since its approval in the 1960s, the
science behind the pill has remained
relatively unchanged. Additionally,
according to the FDA, with typical us-
age, the pill has an 8.7 percent failure
rate.
In contrast, a relatively new con-
traceptive, the intrauterine device, or
IUD, has a more promising outlook.
Te failure rate for the IUD is less
than one percent, McDonald said.
Despite its efectiveness, less than
two percent of women who use con-
traception use the IUD. Only 58 per-
cent of health care providers ofer it to
patients.
Mai Hester, a spokesperson for
Watkins Memorial Health Center, said
that Student Health Services ofers the
IUD and its insertion.
No matter the kind, there is one
huge advantage to female contracep-
tion, McDonald said. And that is
controlling fertility, with or without a
partners participation.

Birth control pill top choice, but needs improvements

The pill is the most popular contraceptive choice with students, said Miranda Myrick, communications director for the Kansas Department of Health
and Environment, but more than half of women who use it are unsatisfed with its hormones and their effects.

Wescoe Hall to get new technology, dining space in summer renovations
By Kylie Nutt
knutt@kansan.com
A vital locale for many students,
the Underground food court in Wes-
coe Hall is getting a makeover this
summer.
Crews have begun an expansion
project, but most of the retail food
options will remain open. Te convi-
ence store will temporarily close, but
Te Pulse cofeshop and food court
will remain open.
Ofcals estimate that the project
will cost $475,000, which is funded
by student fees and will add 140
seats, reduce lines, improve trafc
and increase service efciency.
Temporarily, there will be less
seating in the space, but it shouldnt
be an issue because there are fewer
people using it in the summer, said
Wayne Pearse, director of facilities at
KU Memorial Unions.
Next door to the Underground,
renovations are taking place this sum-
mer in two lecture rooms in Wescoe
Hall that will improve technological
capabilities by replacing the original
walls and seating built in 1974.
Tis is a $500,000 project paid for
by tuition funds, Jill Jess, associate
director for News and Media Rela-
tions at University Relations, said in
an email.
Te top priority was to improve
the classroom environment and ca-
pabilities, Jess wrote.
Design and Construction Manage-
ment started construction afer com-
mencement on May 23. Work will be
completed by the fall semester.
Lecture rooms 3139 and 3140 are
closed for the summer to upgrade
the seating to include a fexible back
along with a larger tablet and seat.
Both rooms will be provided with
three large screens at the front for su-
perior viewing at every seat. Camer-
as will be positioned around the room
to capture video of students and lec-
turers, which can be displayed on the
screens. A large podium will be fxed
in each room and will be compatible
with the latest technology, such as
iPod and Blu-ray players.
Across campus, continued con-
struction on the west side of Eaton
Hall will disrupt trafc at 15th Street
and Naismith Drive.
Te new Measurement, Materi-
als and Sustainable Environment
Center at this location will undergo
utility tunnel work, which will con-
tinue throughout the summer and is
expected to be complete by Aug. 12.

Construction in the Underground, in Wescoe Hall, is in full swing. The food courts in the Under-
ground will remain open as crews remodel parts of Wescoe Hall and the expansion will open by the
fall semester. Construction will take place in various parts of campus during the summer.

Instead of trying to survive the heat, consider using the summer months to improve your help.
A person can completely transform their body in 12 weeks, said Chris Medlen, co-founder of Under-
ground Lab Contemporary Fitness, 919 E. 29th St.
Medlen suggested setting a tangible goal to work toward, such as running a race or ftting into a pair of
skinny jeans.
There are several gyms offering summer memberships, summertime classes and bootcamps. Recreation
Services offers a pass for the summer semester, allowing students to take part in an unlimited amount of
KU Fit Classes, which include yoga, weightlifting and dance aerobics. Lawrence Athletic Club offers one
and three-month memberships.
Students can lose weight and improve health through simple ac-
tivities such as running outdoors, biking and walking to class.

The food of students leaving for the summer term
means one wonderful thing for those of us whove
stayed no longer needing to elbow your way
through a thick crowd to get to the bar. Take ad-
vantage of the smaller crowd and fnd a new bar
to check out, especially if you can fnd one with a
nice patio so you can enjoy some sun with that
beer. Or, better yet, instead of going with the
usual PBR or Bud Light, try a new summer
drink like a Mojito or a Tequila Sunrise. The
Sandbar, 17 E. 8th St., has a bunch of sum-
mer drinks to try such as a Hurricane, Bahama
Mama or a Shark Attack.

Even if youre stuck on campus, summer doesnt have to only conist of studying and going to class. Consider
joining the Lawrence Ultimate Frisbee Summer League. It begins this week and ends Aug. 2. Theres still time to
join one of the eight ultimate Frisbee teams. Games take place every Tuesday evening at the Youth Sports Complex
located at 27th and Wakarusa streets. The games usually start around 6:45 p.m. Steve Mock, commissioner of
the league, said it costs $30 to join and players receive a T-shirt and disk. Anybody who is interested can contact

Combat summer boredom by taking the opprotunity to try out some new restaurants and new global tastes
from the comfort of downtown Lawrence. Aladdin Caf, 1021 Massachusetts St., offers up Mediterranean food.
The fare at Global Cafe, 820 Massachusetts St., is even more broad it serves breakfast food from all over the
globe. It also serves sandwiches, appetizers and drinks from differ-
ent parts of the world.

With a whole semester of classes crammed into eight weeks,
summer school can get stressful. One freedom day a week can
help prevent the negative side effects schoolwork has on your san-
ity. Want to work on your tan? Try the Lawrence Outdoor Aquatic
Center. If youre looking for a summer treat, snow cones are also in
season for a limited time at Tads Tropical Sno, 939 Iowa St. Try the
Jayhawk to show your loyalties. And if you prefer to spend your
freedom day in a less social, air-conditioned fashion, pull down your
blinds and tune into some TV. Hey, its your free day. If you want to
spend it on the couch, were not judging you.

ing. Given the ever-rising cost of gasoline, summer students should begin
planning and saving for that vacation now. You will have nothing but free
time in early August when students who took the summer off are busy
moving back in.
If you are looking to stay in the Lawrence area, consider camping. They
might not be the most exotic options for Jayhawk fshermen, but both have
nearby state parks that are perfect for the cooped-up outdoors type.

When severe weather hits, its im-
portant to stay informed and have a
plan and disaster kit.
Diferent student living situations,
whether in an apartment, dorm or
house, call for diferent plans.
Teri Smith, director of the emer-
gency management department of
Douglas County, said students should
seek the lowest level when a tornado
warning is issued. Te lowest level,
preferably an area without windows,
provides students the most protection
from the storm.
Students need to fnd a place to go
it they dont have place like this, Smith
said.
If students live in an apartment
without a basement, they should get to
know their neighbors on the bottom
levels and make a plan to take shelter
in their apartment, Smith said.
Students in some of the dorms
must think of alternatives, too.
Pat Phillips, resident director of
Naismith Hall, said his dorm doesnt
have a basement. Te plan there is to
take cover in the stairwells and hall-
ways on the lower foors, he said.
Students without a basement
should take cover in the center core
areas of their home, like a closet or
bathroom, said Mark Bradford, chief
of the Lawrence Fire Department.
Tis will ofer protection from fying
debris. Blankets and mattresses can
also be used to add extra protection.
Practicing a plan and preparing a
disaster kit should be done before se-
vere weather strikes, Smith said.
When the sirens sound, students
need to take cover immediately. Te
Douglas County Emergency Man-
agement staf sounds the sirens if the
National Weather Service issues a tor-
nado warning or if trained weather
spotters determine a threat.
On the hill, select buildings have
voice-emergency warning systems.
Te system sounds take-cover mes-
sage when the Lawrence sirens are
activated.
I dont think people understand
how quick tornados can form, or how
quick the damage can be done. It only
takes seconds, Bradford said.
Te sirens are designed to alarm
people who are outside. People in-
doors or in their car might not hear
the alarms. Tis is why it is neces-
sary to stay alert to changing weather
conditions and plan on how to get
information when a tornado watch
is issued.
Smith said it is important to have
multiple ways to get weather infor-
mation instead of being dependent
on just one.
A National Oceanic and Atmo-
spheric Administraion all-hazard
weather radio is one source for severe
weather information. Students can
also receive a KU Alert text message
in the event of severe weather.
Its also important to understand
that severe weather is not done afer a
major tornado passes through, Brad-
ford said. Damaging winds, lightning
or even the formation of another
tornado ofen occur afer a tornado
touchdown.
Te buildings with emergency
warning systems give an all-clear
message when an ofcial all-clear is
announced for Lawrence.
Afer a destructive tornado, people
fnd themselves in a state of shock,
and there are precautions to take to
prevent post injuries. Debris, electric-
ity from down power lines and leak-
ing natural gas can become dangerous
afer a severe storm, Bradford said.
Te more prepared we can be
through education and training the
better we are if the event happens,
Smith said.

David Huber thought he was
prepared for the devastation that
ravaged Tuscaloosa, Ala., when he
and ten classmates arrived in the
college town on May 23. But the
far-reaching destruction caused
by an EF4 tornado on April 27 lef
the meteorology student in awe.
It kind of looked like a post-
apocalyptic scene, Huber said.
You would drive from one edge
of the town to the other, and parts
of it looked fne. But once you got
to the devastated areas, there was
nothing lef at all. It was really ee-
rie.
Huber, a graduate student from
Lees Summit, Mo., was in Tusca-
loosa to volunteer and deliver aid
to the tornado-ravaged commu-
nity. He and ten fellow meteorol-
ogy students helped clean up two
leveled homes before returning to
Lawrence on May 27.
I was hoping to clean up a
little more, but once I got down
there, I realized how big of a job
it was going to be, Huber said.
It seemed like two houses was a
pretty good deal.
In total, the atmospheric sci-
ence students raised $2,400 with
the help of local businesses such
as Hy-Vee and Orange Leaf. Tat
does not include the drinking wa-
ter and other supplies the group
hand-delivered upon arrival.
Mike Robinson, a senior from
Emporia, said many on the trip
were inspired to volunteer by
their years of studying weather
patterns.
We all study meteorology,
and weve all seen tornadoes, but
I dont think weve seen what they
can really do, Robinson said. It
was scary to see a tornado of that
magnitude rip through a major
metropolitan area. Just as meteo-
rology students, we felt compelled
to help out in some way.
Garrett Black, a senior from
Hutchinson, said he volunteered
because he has always had an in-
terest in storm chasing. He said
the pictures and videos did not
prepare him for the quiet and sur-
real scene in Tuscaloosa when the
group arrived that Monday night.
Seeing the kind of devastation
that these tornadoes can cause
kind of put us in our place, Black
said. A lot of time we forget these
tornadoes are afecting real peo-
ple, so to see that really meant a
lot to us.
Seeing the tornados destruc-
tion frst-hand was a crucial ex-
perience for the students, Huber
said, adding that interacting with

families who lost everything put
their jobs as meteorologists into
perspective.
It kinds of brings to life what we
forecast, Huber said. Sometimes
when youre looking at a weather
map you dont realize how devastat-
ing something can be just by look-
ing at the red and greens.
Te students worked with Samar-
itans Purse, a religious non-proft
organization that has been aiding
Tuscaloosa since the disaster.
Te frst victim they aided had
no basement and was taking shelter
in a hallway when a large tree fell
on his house.

cation skills, Jury said.
Ashley Miller, a senior from
Overland Park, will have more than
a college degree by the end of the
summer. By then, Miller will also
be taking a one-way plane ticket
to Nantes, France, where shell
be alongside another teacher in a
classroom.
Ill be working with the teach-
ing assistance program for seven
to nine months teaching English to
middle school or high school stu-
dents, Miller said.
Miller became interested in the
job afer learning about it while
studying abroad in Angers, France,
two years ago.
Tey havent placed me in an
academy yet, so at the moment I
dont even know where Ill be living
or how long Ill be staying, Miller
said. Its frightening and exciting
all at the same time.
For Alex Jorawsky, a senior
from Overland Park, fnding a
job afer graduation was also not
a problem. Majoring in engineer-
ing and environmental science, Jo-
rawsky landed a job as a manufac-
turing manager at Plastikon Heath
care.
I was the ffh employee to be
hired out of 200. I run eight-hour
shifs fve days a week and so far I
have no complaints, which makes
me feel pretty lucky, Jorawsky
said.
A survey by the National As-
sociation of Colleges and Employ-
ers reveals that for the frst time
since 2007, employers are report-
ing a double-digit increase in their
spring hiring projections.
Te future is looking not all that
bad for the 2011 college graduates.
Whether a graduate is taking his
or her parents couch, entering the
world of work in a less-than-ideal
position or on a cross-country road
trip, many who have been through
the process already say, in the end,
things work out.

Success requires hard work
from the individual, but one also
needs love and support from
friends and family, Tyshawn
Taylor said when he acknowl-
edged the help and impact of the
people who surround him. Tis
summer Taylor and other bas-
ketball players are ready to give
back.
My coaches have helped steer
me in the right directions both
personally and athletically my
entire life. I look up to that, and
Ive always wanted to go into
coaching. Tis week has been
a crash course in coaching and
motivation, Taylor said.
Taylor is working as a coach
and mentor for boys ages eight
to 18 at Bill Self s fourth an-
nual Summer Basketball Camp.
Taylor works with the youngest
athletes, a demographic with no-
toriously short attention spans.
Ive got the eight and nine-
year-olds, Taylor said. Ive got
to tap back into my eight-year-
old self. Tats the best way to get
through to them.
Te campers greeted Taylor
like a celebrity.
When coach Self introduced
me to the campers, they all start-
ed screaming and asking for au-
tographs. It reminds you of what
impact basketball can have on
young people. I remember being
that kid, Taylor said.
Taylor wasnt the only bas-
ketball idol the campers worked
with.
Seven-hundred adolescent
boys shufed into the Hore-
jsi Family Athletic Center this
past Monday afernoon to hear
from a NBA basketball player
and member of the 2008 na-
tional championship team, Cole
Aldrich. Aldrich, a former all-
academic and all-American, an-
swered questions from the young
hopefuls and urged the boys to
focus on academics.
Only a handful of this 700 is
going to go on to play collegiate
ball, Aldrich said. Tat is why
it is so important to do well in
school. Tat accomplishment
will help you for the rest of your
life.
Aldrich answered ten ques-
tions, including, What hap-
pened to your tooth? and How
much do you get paid?
Jeric McCoy drove his son
from their home in Burlington
to Lawrence for the camp this
summer for the fourth year.
Its all worth the smile on
his face, he said. It is some-
thing he looks forward to all
year, and hes a better boy for
it.
McCoys son, J.J., along with
the other boys, work on skills
on and of the court. Camp-
ers are expected to make
their beds, clean their rooms
and be in bed by lights out,
and failure to do so results in
loss of free time. Coach Steve
Henson addressed practi-
cal issues before introducing
Cole Aldrich to the adoles-
cent boys.
Fellas, weve had some
complaints about your smell.
I walked into Naismith today
and it smelled like an ammo-
nia factory. Lets take show-

out camps begins June 12.

Jayhawk Motorsports place in two competitions
clubs
By Weston Pletcher
wpletcher@kansan.com
Te Jayhawk Motorsports club
looks ahead afer capturing con-
secutive ninth-place fnishes in
two national events, the Formula
Hybrid and the Formula SAE
Michigan competitions.
Robert Sorem, the team adviser,
was ecstatic with his teams per-
formance and fnish in the Hybrid
competition. Tis is the frst time
the University of Kansas has de-
signed and built a car for the For-
mula Hybrid competition, which
was held from May 1-4 in Loudon,
N.H.
For it being our frst time run-
ning in the Hybrid competition
and not knowing what competi-
tion would be like, it was very ex-
citing. We learned a lot and had we
known what we
know now afer
the competition,
we would have
changed a couple
things, Sorem
said.
Ultimately, the
team would have
liked to fnish in
frst place, but a
top 10 fnish is
something the
school of engi-
neering can use to its advantage.
Taking the step forward to
compete in both the SAE and Hy-
brid competitions this year was a
very big step for the Jayhawk Mo-
torsports organization. It took a
large commitment and immense
efort from a number of dedicated
students, said Abby Rimel, a 2011
graduate. Placing in the top 10 in-
ternationally at both competitions
was very exciting.
Rimel was the teams leader,
overseeing 20 seniors and 25 vol-
unteers.
In the Formula SAE Michigan
competition, which was held May
11-14 in Brooklyn, Mich., the
Jayhawk team fnished ninth out
of 121 registered teams and ffh
among qualifers from the U.S.
Te competitions were broken
up into static and dynamic events,
and the scores from each event de-
termine the fnal standings.
In the SAE competition, the
University received frst place in
the autocross division, which is a
60-second race around obstacles
with speeds reaching 70 mph. Teir
time was 15 seconds faster than the
best time from last years competi-
tion. Te team also fnished fourth
in presentation and eighth in en-
durance.
It is a great refection of the
University and the KU School of
Engineering, Rimel said. Tis
level of performance will keep the
bar high for future years of Jay-
hawk Motorsports teams.
Finishing in the top 10 wasnt
a shock for Rimel. Te team had
high expectations for the event.
We were confdent that the
team would build competitive ve-
hicles for competition, Rimel said.
At competitions, a lot of things
have to go very right to do well.
It is a mixture of preparation, a
competitive vehicle, good drivers,
a cohesive team and a little luck
for competition
to go well.
Te Jayhawk
team now has its
sights set on the
Formula SAE
California com-
petition held in
Fontana from
June 15-18.
Testing is
back in full
swing during the
coming weeks to
tweak and prepare the SAE vehicle
for the competition, Rimel said.
We are very much looking for-
ward for a chance to take the top
spot in California.
Sorem said the competition will
be stif in California, as all of the
tops schools will be at the compe-
tition on June 15.
We know the best schools will
be there, both internationally and
from the United States. Most of
the teams from the U.S. are under-
graduate level, whereas the inter-
national teams are mostly gradu-
ate students, Sorem said.
For Rimel, as a graduate, the
competitions exercise a number
of skills needed for her fast-ap-
proaching career.
Te project has taught our
team so much about teamwork,
deadlines, the design process,
manufacturing and enduring a
high stress environment with very
high expectations in place. Tis
project has been an incredible ex-
perience and an absolute honor to
be a part of, she said.

Although the baseball team fnished
their season on May 23 with a 10-6 loss
to Kansas State, right-handed pitchers
junior Colton Murray and senior T.J.
Walz will continue their baseball ca-
reers in the Major Leagues.
Both were drafed Tuesday, June 7
in the second day of the MLB draf.
Murray was selected by the Philadel-
phia Phillies as the last pick in 13th
round and was the 142nd pick overall.
Te Oakland Athletics picked up Walz
as the 15th pick of the 15th round and
466th overall.
Murray made 20 appearances play-
ing for the Jayhawks, eighteen of which
were from the bullpen.
He concludes his career at Kansas
with a 3.89 ERA over the course of 80
games. He tallied 11 saves, the fourth
most career saves in the school record
books.
Walz led the Jayhawk pitching staf
with 85 strikeouts in 90 and 2/3 innings
in the 2011 season. He went 6-5 in 14
starts and fnshed with a 3.97 ERA.
On his career, Walz holds the school
records for innings pitched (328 1/3),
games started (50), strikeouts (307).
He also tied the record for career
wins at 26.
Walz was also drafed in the 50th
round afer his junior season but de-
clined to continue playing with the
Jayhawks.
Te baseball team will wait to hear
from KU signees Cody Kukuk and
Connor McKay afer they were draf-
ed in the seventh and 24th rounds
respectively. Kukuk was selected by
the Boston Red Sox and McKay by
the Colorado Rockies.

Defensive coordinator coach
retires afer 35 years in game
football
By Matthew Galloway
mgalloway@kansan.com
Defensive coordinator Carl Tor-
bush retired from the Kansas football
coaching staf June 1 afer announc-
ing that he had been diagnosed with
low-grade prostate cancer.
Torbush said he expects to make
a full recovery and will stay in Law-
rence to receive his treatment.
I dont know exactly how long it
will take to get cleared up, but Ive got
a strong faith, Torbush said in a press
conference Tuesday afernoon.
Cornerback coach Vic Shealy will
replace Torbush as defensive coor-
dinator, with defensive line coach
Buddy Wyatt being promoted to co-
defensive coordinator.
Its tough under these circum-
stances to be sitting up here with
Carl going through what hes going
through, but hes a good man and a
good football coach, Wyatt said.
Upon learning of the diagnosis,
Torbush decided retirement was in
his familys best interest, he said. He
informed head coach Turner Gill of
his diagnosis and his decision three
weeks ago.
Te toughest thing was going in
and talking to him, Torbush said.
It was kind of like getting ready to
go into the principals ofce. I really
didnt want to go in there, but I had
to breathe deep and go in there to do
what I needed to do. And that was a
tough, tough meeting.
Gill said he was initially shocked
at the news and worried about the
health of a man he considers a men-
tor and a friend.
When youre talking about health,
you have to put all the other selfsh
things away, Gill said. Im more
concerned about his health and mak-
ing sure hes going to be OK. Tat was
a more important thing to me.
Torbush joined the coaching staf
prior to last season when Gill was an-
nounced as the new head coach.
Even though its been a short term
here, its been a very, very important
term, Gill said. I appreciate what
hes all about and I know that he is a
person that will continue to have KU
in his heart and in his mind.
Torbush also vacated his addi-
tional position as linebackers coach,
a void Gill said he hopes to have flled
by the end of the week.
Torbush has coached for more than
35 years, including head coaching
positions at Louisiana Tech (1987)
and North Carolina (1998-2000), ac-
cording to the Athletics Department.
With Shealy, the defense is being
lef in good hands, Torbush said. He
feels the team is more athletic than
last season as a whole and expects the
program to rebound soon.
I know the word patience is not
really in the English vocabulary any-
more, but thats what I think needs
to happen, Torbush said. A couple
more years of recruiting here and you
are going to see some great things
happen.
