tah Gov. Gary Herbert visited

USU Eastern on Friday, Oct. 3,
to talk with student leaders about
his educational goals. He shared
his views of education that not
one size fits all as one of his platforms.
Herbert shared his views

about cutting funds to education
and wants to stop that from happening. He shared with students
his views of hard work by sharing
a quote that has been used in
his family for as long as he can
remember, Work will win when
wishy-washy wishing wont. He
then opened it up to the students
to ask questions.
Students took advantage of
the opportunity and spouted off
questions. Herbert was asked,

ABC 4s news anchor Brian

Carlson arrived on USU Easterns
campus to explore and meet with
students prior to the stations
broadcast from campus on Oct.
15. Carlson took time to sit down
some of The Eagles staff and
discuss his road to becoming an
anchor and how students can get
internships and employment in
the broadcast world.
Carlson grew up in West Valley, Utah, and attended Granger
High School. He said he belongs
to Granger high class of 1997.
Carlson always had a love
for being on television and told
students, In my familys home
videos, you can always see me

trying to get all of the attention.
His love for broadcasting didnt
truly start until Channel 2 began
a high school newscast that was
written and run by students. He
auditioned for the show and was
given the first anchor position.
Carlson attended Brigham
Young University and graduated with a degree in broadcast
news. While attending BYU, he
took part in the various news
programs, but his favorite was
creating a sports program. I love
sports at BYU, and this became
my favorite broadcast job while
a student, he said.
After graduation, he landed
a job in Washington in 2004 to
hone his skills.

set college as a goal? He talked

about how getting parents to
make their children excited for
college was a big way to motivate
them to attend college as young
adults. He was also asked, Are
you focused on just the educational aspect of young adults or
does the concern cover emotional
needs as well? Herbert talked
about the huge concern of childrens emotional needs and said
that having counselors in schools
was important.
Herbert spent time answering
each question. He talked one on

one with the students, making
sure they knew he was listening.
He showed he cared what they
had to say.
He asked students their opinions on things like the Common
Core, Utahs Core Standards
in English, language arts and
mathematics, based on the
Common Core State Standards.
The Common Core establishes
a framework for high quality
instruction. It defines what students should know and be able
to do to as they move on in their
educational goals.
Students were asked their
opinion on concurrent enrollment classes as well as AP
classes. Students thanked Gov.
Herbert for talking time out of
his busy schedule to come talk
to them.

The first snapshot of college enrollments for the 2014-15

school year (fall semester, third
week) shows that the number of
students enrolled at Utahs public
colleges and universities held
steady with a slight net increase
at Utah State University, Snow,
Dixie State University and Utah
Valley University. USU Eastern,
the University of Utah, Weber
State University, Southern Utah
University and Salt Lake Community College each saw a slight
decrease.
USU Eastern dropped 42
students from fall semester
2013. The Price campus is down
22 students from last fall while
the Blanding campus is down
20, making a 2.7 percent overall
decrease in student FTE numbers
at USU Eastern.
The decrease in students
was a disappointment on campus.
We were tracking ahead in all
indicators such as applications
and housing deposits, but really
dropped the last few weeks.
The institution is committed to growing to meet the Four

in Four goal and fulfilling our
mission to educate those who
will create and sustain our region.
We have innovative ideas
and increased collaboration with
the academic side of the institution to ensure that we are doing
everything we can to grow our
student body, said Greg Dart,
vice chancellor of enrollment
management.
Overall, the Utah System
of Higher Education (USHE)
enrollment for the Fall 2014
semester increased by 136 fulltime-equivalent students, for a
net increase of one tenth of one
percent from 2013. Four of the
eight institutions saw increases
between 1.85 and 3.39 percent,
while the other four saw decreases
ranging from 0.93 to 5.31 percent.
Utah is bucking the national
trend of decreasing enrollments,

to hold steady. Several USHE

Graduates of Gear Up
Katrina Wood
assistant editor

Created to broaden horizons and prepare students
for college, GEAR UP offers
further assistance in college
for those who were enrolled
during junior high or high
school.
GEAR UP is a federallyfunded college readiness
program that has supported
lower-income students since
1999. It began assisting students at surrounding schools
in 2006, and offered an excess
of tools to help students aim
and prepare for college. For
those who have actively participated in the program, it has
given students a glimpse into
a future they never thought
possible.
Its main goal is to open
the possibility of attending
college to students who never
considered going, whether
it be from a lack of money
or drive to attend, and to
assist them in enrolling and
graduating from college. It

encourages students to stay
in school, helps them raise
and keep their grades up, and
provides an abundance of
strategies and tools to assist
them in their goal to reach
college.
ACT prep, FAFSA workshops and tutoring are just a
few of the tools GEAR UP
offers.
In addition to support in
classes they struggle with and
assistance in learning how to
take college-entrance exams,
GEAR UP also helps students
search for scholarships and
supports them with college
admission and career searches. It holds family workshops,
and sets up job-shadowing
opportunities at the various
locations in Carbon and Emery counties.
Known primarily for its
advising and tutoring at the
high school, this year GEAR
UP is harboring its second
batch of first-year students at
USU Eastern.

Wildman statue returns
The Wildman statue returned to pit.
Josie Sue Slade

viewpoints editor
On the night of Oct. 2, a tan

truck drove onto campus and its
occupants returned the Wildman
statue to the north side of the old
SAC. Although not in its rightful
position, the Wildman was once
again safe and back on campus.
While investigating the disappearance of the Wildman, it
became apparent that it was a
group of students who had taken
the statue as a prank. They wished
SPORTS

SPORTS
to increase awareness and begin

a new tradition on the campus.
No ill intent was involved but
because the school officials had
not been informed prior to its
disappearance, legal action had to
be taken and a police report was
filed. The Wildman statue was
valued at $1,000 and because the
replacement cost was so high, the
case was classified under felony.
On Oct. 3, a forklift moved
the Wildman back to its rightful
position behind the library. Once
more campus is complete.

Subtle bullies Non-traditionals
Christopher Palo
are bullies too
staff writer
jollygreen377@yahoo.com
Morgan Verdi
editor-in-chief
mlverdi95@hotmail.com
You are with a group of friends, talking, laughing and having a great time when all of a sudden
one of your friends says something to you. It hurts
your feelings and even humiliates you. You try to
brush it off as no big deal, but you cant help but
wonder why. Why would a friend do that to you?
Unfortunately, situations like that above happen more than one would think. Subtle bullies
are everywhere. According to MBNBD, one in
seven students in grades K-12 are either bullies
or victims of bullying. The bad part is most of
the time they exist in our close group of friends.
Girls are most often the culprits, as well as the
victims to subtle bullying.
You know the saying, sticks and stones may
break my bones but words will never hurt me?
That saying has never been, nor will it ever be,
true. Ive always said sticks and stones may break
my bones, but words will be the death of me.
Hurting others with words seems to be so
common that we dont even realize what we do.
We dont see the damage it does. We may even
be victims of subtle bullying yet find ourselves
doing it to others. Why, when we know how
hard subtle bullying makes life, would we do it
to someone else?
Ive been bullied by other girls my whole life,
but also know Ive found myself doing the same
thing. This vicious cycle of hurting each other
has to stop somewhere. Subtle bullying is just as
damaging to a person as actual physical bullying.
The emotional effects subtle bullying has on a
person can be deadly. Thats why it has to stop.
None of us want to wake up one day and
find that our friend, the one we bullied for stupid meager reasons, took their life because we
couldnt wake up and see their hurt. Whether
we are bullying because of jealousy or just so
we feel better about ourselves, its never okay to
bully another person even in subtle ways. Subtle
attacks can be the most deadly.
The criticizing has to stop. The rude comments
have to stop. We need to show kindness toward
one another, we have to break the cycle because
if we do not, what will the next generation be like
if we dont change? We can make a difference.
We can stop the catty fighting.
We can stand up for each other and make sure
that we are never caught trying
to justify why we treated someone poorly. There is never a
just reason, no matter what
the person is like, to treat
them poorly. Lets rise above
and stop the subtle bullying. Who knows, we
might just save a life.
Weve lived lives, weve gained experiences, weve had heart break and felt love
that others dream of. At some point, we
decided that what we had wasnt good
enough, that we were capable of more. We
pulled ourselves out of the dreary lives we
lead and shouted in the loudest voice we
could muster, I am not done yet. So we
rearrange our lives, make sacrifices and
trudge forth, for we are fearless and will
not be left behind in a life of mediocrity,
we are the non-traditional students and
this is our story.
Some of us did not graduate high
school, some of us did. We entered the
work force as soon as possible. Some of
us took jobs at local restaurants or at local
department stores, some joined the military and some tried their hands at being
business owners, but we find ourselves in
the same place.
We hold jobs, support families, keep
households and fight to earn the coveted
college degree, in hopes that it will im-
prove our station in life.

When we look out across the classroom
and see those young adults with their hip
clothes and devil may care attitude, remember this, we have done more than they.
We ascended the mountains of life and still
claw for that ever-elusive American dream.
When they are partying and we are at
home studying and taking care of the new
baby we remember that many students
dont have the slightest clue what they
are doing. They think that this is just
something they are supposed to do. We
know better. We amassed the knowledge
to understand why we are here. Night after
night, reading chapter after chapter, we
strive for more, because we have seen the
other side of the fence and dont like it.
We have so much knowledge and
experience that it makes us a force of
nature. We have learned the secrets to
life, the handy little short-cuts and tricks
we use to get by. We are unstoppable. Our
greatness is only hindered by our fear of
success, because that is all we have left.
There is no other option, but to succeed.
We need to take this ability we have
to survive and apply it to school. We need
not look at tests like some scary project we
Automotive Department
have to deal with on a Tuesday afternoon,

but as a small hurdle that we completely
destroy with our life experience.
Whenever we get down and ask ourselves if it is worth it. We must remember
what we have been through, the late nights
at the store, the horrible customers, or the
far off battlefield where we lost too much.
We must remember that this time it is us
who will become great. It is us who will
not falter in our endeavor to reach our
goals. We will drive on. We will succeed
because we are strong and we are worth it.
Take that knowledge and experience you
gained and use it well. Help the person next
to you. Take that young freshman by the
hand and lead them to the path to success.
You are the philosophers and wise
sages of campus. Your
stories and advice are
worth more than you
know, share them,
lend some insight to
life to others. Be the
role model that you
never had, take that
experience and
wisdom and use
it for good.

The LDS Institute of Religion is a great place to
hang out. Its where I spend most of my time outside
of classes and where I do a lot of my socializing.
Its a safe environment among the wacky and wild
ways of college, and provides a chance every day to
get away from the world and relax. Though Im a bit
quiet at times and struggle reaching out to others,
I find myself at home and at peace when entering
the institute.

The LGBT community deserves our respect

Josie Sue Slade
viewpoints editor
Being different has always been something that people are judged for. In history,
people were judged for having a different
religion, skin color or gender. These judgments led to wars and violence that plague
our history books. Yet, humanity always finds
new ways to judge a population.
Today people are judged based on their
sexual orientation and sexual identity. The
people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual
Monday
or transsexual face daily prosecution and

prejudiced people who are seeking to take
away their rights. Every day is a battle to
gain rights to marry for love and to merely
exist as who they are.
Although I identify as heterosexual, the
LGBT community has my respect and support. Even I suffer from judgment merely for
voicing my unwavering support. I grew up
in Orem, Utah, and faced bullying for my
ideals. I was called immoral and a sinner by
my peers. I once had a teacher tell me, Youre
a dyke who will never amount to anything.
Why is that in our world being different

The judgments on the LGBT community
swept across our world and barred rights
from people just like you and me. The FDA
still has a ban on men who have
had sexual contact with other
men (even once) from giving
blood. Despite the proof that
HIV can be contracted
by many means, the
homophobia in our
society has stopped
good blood donors from
being able to give.

Easterns student leaders said, I thought

it was awesome that he took the time out

I also liked how he interacted with us and

Andi Vuksinick, one of USU Easterns
student leaders said, I think it was cool that

he came to USU Eastern because we arent

a very known school so the fact he did that
really shows he cares.
After the meeting was over, students
lined up to meet Herbert. Even then he spent
individual time with each student talking to
them and answering questions. The experience was one students wont soon forget.
As the days move on, there is no sign that

the Wildman will once more be taken from
its position.
Soon after its return, a student came
forward about the incident. Greg Dart, vice
chancellor over student enrollment, decided
that the issue will be treated through student
conduct rather than through legal measures.
The school does not wish to tarnish students
records over a simple misjudgment.

This pranks outcome could have been
avoided if the students involved had gone
through the right outlets to get it approved.
Dart said, Students need to know that
myself and the institution are in favor of
a vibrant student life and adding to traditions. If students wish to do a prank, plan
it out better.
GEAR UP
Students of GEAR UP who participated

during their junior high or high school
years have the opportunity to participate
in this new part of the GEAR UP program
and receive further assistance in their
education goals. In addition, they also
have the chance to join the new GEAR
UP Club, which meets twice a month so
students can ask questions, find tutors,
receive assistance and enjoy refreshments.
The first-year USU Eastern students
make up 20 of the approximate 350 students enrolled in the region. For their first
year of college, they continue to be a part
of the GEAR UP Program, and continue
to be overseen by Brenda Rawson, who
enjoys working with the students, despite

The hardest stories to report on were,
Honestly, the hardest stories are the ones
where I have to interview an official that has
gone home for the day. When heartbreaking stories come along you have to distance
yourself or you cant do your job.
Carlson had a lot to say to the aspiring
journalists at The Eagle. Carlson offered
advice on how to land a job in broadcasting,
Find an internship. Channel 4 is always
LGBT
hiring new interns. If a student is registered

through a school, they can find an internship
and get a first-hand look at what broadcasting
life is like.
Before Carlson left to see more of Easterns
campus, he offered some advice that can apply to everyone. First, make sure you have
determination. You have to know that this is
what you want to do. Second, if you have that
determination, the answer is always yes, if
someone says no, then theyre lying. If someone says no, someone else out there will say
yes. Last, learn time management. That may
be the most important thing you ever learn.
We sling insults around like poof, dyke,

fag, gay and lezzo without any thought to
how disrespectful we are being.
Misconceptions about the LGBT community
plague everything. From the belief that homosexuality is contagious, that all homosexuals
have AIDS or that people who have same sex
partners are loose or always have open relationships. Many people will say, Oh well
I dont live that lifestyle, when their lifestyle
is no different than everyone elses. The only
difference is the fact that they are attracted to
people of the same sex.
In the heterosexual community, we find men
and women who live loose lives and indulge in
open relationships with others. Your sexuality
does not determine the lifestyle you live, you do.

Our brothers and sisters, cousins, aunts,
uncles and friends are terrified to be who they
are. These wonderful and exceptional people
are afraid to wake up in the morning because
of the judgment they will be met with. Life is a
beautiful thing and this obvious crime is making
people unable to experience life as it is meant
to be experienced.
A change needs to be made in how the LGBT
community is viewed and treated. The real sign
of a good person is in how they treat people
who are different than them. A person does not
deserve any less of your respect because of their
sexuality. Its time that we step up and strive to
be people worth knowing.
Cosmetology students can bake
activities, they started the card

swipe application where they
scan student cards for count
of attendance. This also contributes to tracking the demographics to see what types of
people are coming so they can

Another goal they have been
working to bring to life, is enhancing leadership programs to
give students who are interested
the opportunity to build their
leadership experience to the
ultimate level.
The first year is always
about learning, Allen states.
With this being her first year
working for USU Eastern, Allen

year as an assessment to get an
idea about the schools needs and
then go from there to enhance
its potential.

For the fourth straight year, USU Eastern cosmetology students hosted their annual bake sale and will donate

instructor Debbie Prichard, all her students worked hard in raising the money for this worthy cause.

A local student who never considered going to college because of lack

wanna stress that GEAR UP is the place
to be if youre worried about attending

give you all that information needed to
succeed in college. GEAR UP offers

happenings, a regular part of the institute

groove, but something I look forward to with
eagerness. Who does not love a free muffin
or want free cookies? On more than one occasion, they have been the little pick-me-ups
that have turned my day around.
The Institute also holds activities every
month. Though I dont get to go to them
often, Ive enjoyed the few Ive attended.
When I go, I get to chat with people I never
had the chance to know in high school, and
I get to meet new people I may not have met
otherwise. Its a fun aspect of Institute, one
that many others enjoy and thrive in, but its
not my favorite.
Ive always had a hard time reaching out
to others and working beyond my comfort
zone. I love talking to people and being
around others, but Im the definition of shy.
I dont know what to say to people when I
first meet them, and when I try thinking of
something, I get so nervous about making
the wrong first impression that I dont say
anything at all. More often than not, they
take my silence as an invitation to leave me
be and Im left with only my thoughts as
my companion.
Its exasperating. I get nervous when I
try to be outgoing, but when Im actually
talkative, Im shunned or ignored. Im excluded from big group hang outs, and only
informed of their happening after they happened. Though the Institute is supposed to be
a place of welcome and friendship, it at times
feels more like a gathering of cliques. Yet in
spite of this, I still love going to the Institute.
True, Im not always included; I often
feel forgotten, unneeded and unwanted. At
times, I question why I go to the Institute
when most of my friends either arent there
or will be leaving soon. But then, when Im
in my D&C or relationships class, or when
attending Friday Forum, I feel that peace I
yearn for every day.
I remember that even if no one talks to
me, I am loved. My contribution matters and
no matter what anyone says, I am wanted.
Im needed. Im important. I go to Institute
for a reason. I go to grow, to learn and become closer with my Savior. I go because
I know it is right, because it is what I need
and what I love.
When I think about it, the institute and
its students are like a family. Its a warm
and safe place despite its imperfections and
flaws. Its a place to rest and seek refuge, to
stress and freak out and to cry and break
down. Its a home away from home, a place
where we can be broken down and built up
again stronger. Its one of the places I feel
most welcome on campus, and its a place I
look forward to visiting every day.
institutions are seeing a slight growth, while some, such as Salt

Lake Community College, are seeing a decline. As a large part of
their student body is enrolled part-time, we believe this decline
is due to more people returning to full-time employment as
the economy improves,
said Dave Buhler, Utah
Commissioner of Higher
Education.
We anticipate that
the overall growth in the
USHE system will continue to outpace nationwide trends, partly due to
Utahs young, large and

he said.

The program, though no longer in its

as the similar program, Upward Bound,
but is making progress. The program is
expanding rapidly in larger cities across
the nation, and is likewise growing larger

it continues to develop at USU Eastern

fall of 2014, compared to 106,680 in the fall of 2013. Headcount
includes all students enrolled at an institution.
Although WSU declined in FTE, it experienced the largest percentage in student headcount (total number of students
enrolled in classes) with a 3.81 percent growth, followed by
Snow at 3.78 percent, DSU 2.63 percent and UVU 2.51 percent.
SLCC lost the highest percentage of student headcount with
a 5.14 percent decrease followed by USU Eastern 3.9 percent,
U of U 1.76 percent, SUU 1.15 percent and USU .54 percent.
Additionally, particularly at institutions with a community
college mission, USHE serves several thousand students in
non-traditional programs, which are not budget-related, do
not receive any taxpayer support, and are not included in the
third week totals. These include short-term training programs,
distance education, and non-credit technical training.
USHE institutions also serve over 27,000 high school
students in concurrent enrollment. It is also important to
note that some students enroll in programs that begin after
the third-week enrollment census is taken. To provide a more
complete picture of fall enrollments, final semester numbers
will be released when available. Some institutions have a large
number of part-time students, which accounts for the difference
between their FTE and headcount.

The life of an auto man

Priscilla A. Sharp
staff writer
sharppriscilla752@yahoo.com
Todd Richardson started as an auto parts

person in 1979 when he was 10. His dad started
an auto shop in Price and the young Richardson
worked part time, coming home from school and
working from 3 to 5 p.m. and on Saturdays. He
stayed in the automotive business until 2003. In
between those time periods, he graduated from
the College of Eastern Utah with his associate
degree in science as well as an applied science
degree in welding, and transferred to Utah State
University where he lived in Logan for 10 years.
While Richardson was there, he started in
the engineering program, moved to the business
program then to the accounting program, trying
to find where he wanted to be in life. Through all
of these different decisions, he finally came to a
conclusion. He stated I found out that I loved
automotive. So thats where he decided to stay.
Richarsons full time employment in parts
started in 1987, which he continued for 16 years.
After that he started servicing vehicles and was
a service manager for nine years. His long list of
achievements as a parts person includes: inside
sales, outside sales, store manager, parts department manager for a General Motors dealership
and service manager for a GM dealership.
He was a district sales manager for Checkers
which is now OReilly Auto Parts. He was in
charge of multiple stores throughout the state:
Logan, Brigham City, Ogden, North Ogden,
West Valley and after a while he lost Brigham
City and gained Tooele. This seemed like only
a blip in his life though because it was only for
three months.
For two years, Richardson worked for
Auto Leave Inc. building controlled pipe
bombs to inflate air bags, and he also worked
for a parts store. His schedule meant waking
up at 6 a.m. on Monday morning, driving
to work at the parts store and working the
8 to 5 shift on weekdays, then through the
weekend he would go to work at
6 a.m., come home at 6 p.m. and
repeat for the rest of the weekend

The issues facing college
students today are numerous and
tough. The pressures of studies
and other factors (work, social
life and extra-curricular) can leave
someone feeling as if they cant do
it. There is still a stigma attached
to getting help and it leaves people
who desperately need help scared
to get it.
Its time we start realizing that
these issues we face (depression,
anxiety and other disorders) are
physical diseases that need to be
treated like any other disease a
person can face in their life.
Darrin Brandt, director of
student services, said, It is easy
for people to accept that they
have imperfect bodies, but when
it comes to our brains, for some
reason it doesnt translate that
because we live in this imperfect
world with imperfect bodies that
we also have these brains that are
absolutely imperfect.
Having a mental disease is like
being sick. When you are sick your
body lets you know by giving you
signs. If you have a cold, a runny
nose and perhaps a fever clue you
into this. You know you are sick
and you take medicine or get help
from a doctor in order to get better.

Why do we think having a
mental disorder is any different
from being sick? Popular lore tells
us that we feel with our heart. The
truth is that our emotions and actions come from our brain. Certain
areas of our brain help us to regulate
mood. When we get sick with depression or other mental disorders,
our brains get sick and we should
seek help through medication and
doctors.
Feelings of hopelessness, unease and fatigue are symptoms to
tell you that you are sick. Often
mental disorders can manifest in
physical symptoms that appear to
have no explanation. This is your
body trying to tell you something
and we often dont listen. Just
like any other disease, untreated
mental disorders can lead to injury
or death.
Get help. These disorders are
nothing to be ashamed of. Our
bodies are imperfect and so are
our brains. USU Eastern offers
an array of counseling to help out
people who need it. Found on the
second floor of the Jennifer Leavitt
Student Center is the Resource
Center. Students can talk one on
one with someone and get the help
they need.
Dont be ashamed of being sick.
you deserve better than that.

Editor-in-Chief
Copper Hills High students visit USU Eastern
Since humans began to write

their thoughts several thousands
of years ago, an important question
continues to trouble us. Where did
I come from? This is indeed an
important question to ask. I aim
to present this subject disregarding
personal biases and the inevitable
backlash it has always produced
and to simply bare my scientific
soul you. All philosophy aside, I ask
my readers to examine this question, if only for a moment, from the
eyes of science and evidence, then
make the decision for themselves
whether its proofs hold up.
In the beginning of Earths existence some 4.5 billion years ago,
the planet was a lonely rock dotted
with vast open spaces and containing an atmosphere made of almost
entirely of hydrogen and helium.
Elements began condensing such
as ammonia, water vapor, carbon
dioxide and nitrogen, giving birth
to clouds, rain and oceans. Within
these oceans and various bodies of
water, hot vents from the Earths
molten core provided the energy
which in turn caused a mixture of
hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, sulfur,
phosphate and calcium well call
the Primordial Soup to form.
All around these ancient hot tubs
something inevitable happened;
the first amino acids began to
condense. Amino acids are the
building blocks of proteins, which
when combined just right, in turn
provide the building blocks for cells
and eventually life.
Ive come across an analogy
which described this event as a,
tornado hitting a pile of garbage
and a 747 jet popping out or
other similar nonsensical quips.
Know that that understanding is
categorically and methodically
flawed. Experiments originally
designed in 1953 by Stan Miller,
which we can perform today,
replicating those early conditions
show amino acids condensing
on their own within a week or
.000000000029% of Earths total
existence to date and if given time,
will logically produce the same
results as all those years ago.
So life not only was possible
to form in these conditions, it was
overwhelmingly probable which
makes the probability of life on
other planets entirely likely. I can

only provide you with so many
examples in my short column, so
I implore all of you to seek more
examples of these evidences in
writings, research, whatever reliable source you may come upon
and make the decision yourself.
With amino acids and proteins
forming, the first membranes that
surround the cells, followed by specialized organelles which copied
RNA, then DNA, the building code
for all life. DNA is the common
link between all living things. In
a sense, its a detailed family tree
of all our origins. I understand it
is difficult to stomach human relationships with other organisms,
how we descended from ancestral great apes, small mammals,
reptiles, amphibians, fish, worms,
single-celled organisms and bacteria, but the proof lies within each
of your 80 trillion cells.
In my experience, as I hike
through our local mountain ranges
and brush against trees with whom
I share a common ancestor, I find
my ancient relationship with these
cousins an incredibly spiritual
experience.
These are our best theories
supported by the evidence we collected. I remind you that science
works on the frontier between
knowledge and ignorance. Were
not afraid to admit what we dont
know, theres nothing wrong with
that. The only fallacy is to pretend
we have all the answers. Perhaps
someone reading this will be the
one to discover the answers to all
those unanswered questions.
As I stare into the skies at night
holding my little girl on my lap, she
points upwards and names the stars
with her own imagination, pointing to ones she finds particularly
fascinating, that imagination is
what drives me to understand the
cosmos around me and of the origins of life. I cant help but wonder
in amazement if near one of her
special stars is another father holding his little girl asking the same
questions. Nothing
is too wonderful
to be true if it be
consistent with the
laws of nature.Michael

Eastern Utah Womens Health

Eastern Utah Womens Heath is USU Easterns doctors office
and despite the name, it is for men and women. The office is located
at 77 South 600 East in Price. They are open Monday through
Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and
closed on weekends.
USU Eastern students without insurance get two free visits per
semester. Those with insurance will have their co-pays paid for.
Danielle Howa-Pendergrass said, The staff is understanding and
friendly. No question too big or small.
Their services include birth control options, STI screening and
treatment, pregnancy testing, urinary tract infections and, of course,
common sicknesses. The staff asks if you need to come in, please
call and make an appointment with them at 435-637-0313 and they
will get you in as soon as possible.
Checking out Eastern
lmost 100 students from Copper Hills High School in West

Jordan were on campus Sept. 24, checking out USU Eastern
and its community.
Agustin Tino Diaz, admissions adviser for enrollment services,
invited specific organizations such as the Black Student Union, Latinos
in Action, People of the Pacific and others who demonstrated interest
in attending USU Eastern to campus for a day.
Diaz said the purpose was to begin recruiting for the institution
at a targeted level. Universal outreach is great, but its stronger and
more personal when its builtspecifically to a certain niche.
Our goal is to develop and strengthen our outreach to first generation and low-income students, as well as students of color from
various communities. These students in our opinion would be best
served at our institution as we continue creating and sustaining the
resources needed to host them.
USU Eastern is going after a certain niche of student because, Diaz
said, As we closely look at Utahs rising demographic of students, we
find that there is a rising tide of low income and first generation students.
On top of that, a more diverse population in terms of communities
of color is also arriving to Utah. We ought to be ready to work with
these populations and this trip or form of outreach was just the first
step in many to come.
photos courtesy of Tino Diaz
He chose to bring students from Copper Hills because its demographics make up one of the biggest high schools and one of the biggest
sites to low income and first generation diverse populations in Utah.
It took an army of vehicles to pick all the students from West Jordan and bring them to Price and back. A 50-passenger bus, two mini
busses and even some smaller vans were used to transport students.
Diaz is excited over the new recruiting concept. He said, Surveys
were distributed to each student who took part in the experience and
we received an overwhelming positive response. Counselors said we
set the bar and so far, no college has met that bar. What they enjoyed
most apparently was the interaction with our student leaders.
He hopes to continue to bring more students to campus with Hunter
and Granger high schools already planning to attend. Plus the list
could go on as he hopes Mountain View, Pleasant Grove and many
other high schools will follow.

David Osborne Jr.

There may be nothing sweeter than watching an athlete

that has worked and given their dedication to a goal receive
recognition for their achievements. I had the opportunity
to watch a former Golden Eagle inducted into the USU
Eastern Athletic Hall of Fame, via technology.
The honoree was Kris Hill, who during his two seasons
at the College of Eastern Utah, rewrote the record books.
His career spanned from 1990-1992 as a Golden Eagle
during which time he scored 1,026 points (fifth all-timeleading scorer), 601 of those points coming during his
sophomore year (10th all time for single-season scoring
totals). He also set the record for most rebounds by an
individual in a career with 842 and in 1992 he became the
fourth All-American basketball player at CEU.
At the induction ceremony on Oct. 10, Hill was introduced by athletic director Dave Paur and the introduction
and the acceptance speech by Hill may be two of the finest
speeches I have ever heard. Both were filled with funny
anecdotes and stories, but there were also thoughts I was
able to take away from them that I hope to relay in this
column since the point of this entire column is to take
lessons from sports and apply them to life. There were
three philosophies that I was able to take away from
these speeches.
Paur relayed a story about why Hill was so successful.
He said that the thing he remembered about Hill was that
he was always having fun. Paur went a step farther, You
gotta have fun, if you arent having fun, why are you playing? I think oftentimes we forget that we are supposed to
enjoy the things that we are doing instead of just trudging
through life day by day with a bleak and meager existence.
This was a great thing to take away from the speech
because Hill has been successful at many different levels
of basketball, from junior college at CEU to the D1 level
at DePaul and even the professional level in Europe. It
was because he enjoyed what he was doing.
Hill didnt leave his love of basketball when he was
done playing, instead he continued doing what he loved
and became a coach at the high school and collegiate level,
coaching at Brighton and Jordan high schools and at Utah
Valley University and Weber State University.
The second thing that I learned came from Hill. He
relayed the story of how a kid from Chicago, Ill., ended
up in Price, Utah. He said that when he came out of high
school he had two scholarship offers, one to a school in
Chicago and one to CEU. After his weekend visit to CEU,
he wasnt sure if he wanted to live in a small town where
he knew nobody while all of his friends from high school
had offers to play at schools in the area he grew up. Hill
said his high school coach gave him some advice and it
was, Dare to be different.
It is so easy for all of us to try and to fit into the molds
placed in front of us and this advice, that was meant for
an 18-year old Hill, could be universally applied. We are
all individuals, why dont we act like it. There are many
times in sports where individuals dared to be different
and it worked out in their favor.
One person who dared to be different was Michael Jordan and I think we can be thankful that he was willing to
be different because if he didnt help make a difference in
the length of basketball shorts, we would all still be seeing
NBA players in the short shorts that were made famous
by Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and the shortest shorts in
NBA history, John Stockton. It is time that we learn like
Hill did that it is okay to break the mold and be different
because in all likelihood, it should work out for the best.
The final thought that I took away from Hills acceptance
speech was the value of hard work. I think we know that
to be successful it takes effort and time, but being able
to buckle down and do some hard manual labor makes
all of that seem easier. Hill told several different stories
about learning how to do hard work like baling hay with
the Gary Arrington family from Huntington and working
in Richard Lees yard.
It seems that the value of hard work has gone by the
wayside and while Hill made jokes about never being a
farmer because he learned early during his time in Price
that being dirty and doing hard work wasnt for him, you
could tell that those experiences shaped him and taught
him the value of hard work. We all need these experiences so we know what we are capable of, if we were to
always stop when the road got rough or things get a little
too difficult, we would never succeed in sports or in life.
In the end I watched as Hill received the
recognition that was well deserved.
What was even more enjoyable was
to walk away with ideas, stories and
experiences that could make us
all better. Remember to enjoy the
things that you do, learn the value
of hard work and dare to be
different because all three
will help you succeed
whether in an athletic
sense or just life in
general.

Utah State University Easterns
baseball team wrapped up their fall
season on Oct. 11, against Colorado
Northwestern Community College
adding a final victory for the Golden
Eagles. The team competed well this
fall and both coaches and players are
satisfied with the results of the team
thus far and are looking forward to
kicking it into gear as they work into
the spring season.
I thought we played well this fall
and improvement was shown from the
beginning to the end. Were working
hard and it has shown. We create
a very competitive environment at
practice and it helps the team improve
everyday, and were all excited for this
upcoming season, said freshman
Jason Maughan.
Last week, the USU Eastern
baseball team put on their annual
100-inning-fundraiser game. Every
year the team raises money from
sponsorships and plays a day-long
scrimmage. However, this year there
was a twist to the 100-inning game. In
recent years, the team has broken into
two teams among themselves to play
a two-strike game against a pitching
machine. Just two days before the
game, the field flooded and was in no
condition to be played on. The solution

was to move the 100-inning game to
the softball fields at the Carbon County
Fairgrounds where the team played
a 100-inning, inner-squad-slowpitch
softball game for the fundraiser.
Coach Scott Madsen split the
players into three teams and each
player was required to bat opposite
handed, with only one strike or foul
ball allowed before it was called as an
out. The new set up for the fundraiser
sped up the game, as well as created a
competitive and fun alternative.
None of the players were expecting to play a slow pitch game as a
fundraiser, even as we were coming
into the game. Most players werent
sure if they were excited about it, but as
the day went on, everybody seemed to
have fun competing against ourselves
in a much different aspect of the game.
Every player got to play positions that
they usually dont and it was easy to
have fun messing around as a team and
it made the 100 innings go by fast,
said freshman Scotty Lyman
The baseball team will start their
inner-squad World Series the week of
Oct. 20-24, as a chance to compete
and battle it out on the field and show
whos the best. Every year the team
looks forward to playing competitive
baseball among themselves to finish
off the fall season. These inner-squad
games will be played at 1 p.m. on their
home field.

lose to Trinidad

Devon Lynch goes for the shot against Salt Lake Community College.
Learning from their mistakes was

the greatest lesson the mens soccer
team achieved after an unexpected
loss on Oct. 11.
To some, the game might have not
seemed fair. The referees were making questionable calls during most of
the second half of the game. Dylan
Tapia stated, They werent very
precise, they could have done a better job at refereeing. During the last
half of the game the referees didnt
seem to be on the same page when
the opposing team scored. One said
that it didnt count while the other
said that it did; leaving the score 0-1.
Luis Rico stated, We played our
hearts out and I feel like we almost
had it but luck wasnt on our side and
thats how soccer is.
Not only were the players upset,
but the Golden Eagles in the stands
didnt seem too happy either, as they
were chanting and yelling. Mauricio
Santana stated, The refs made a lot
of mistakes with fouls, penalty kicks,
and poor choice of cards.

One of USU Easterns players
got a red card pulled on him for foul
language towards one of the referees,
but many say that it wasnt going
towards the referee. Berndbe Cortes
stated, A guy from the opposing
team stepped on one of our players
and he dropped to the ground, but
the ref didnt call anything, so he got
mad and swore and the ref thought
it was going towards him.
So far the mens record is 6-6-2
and they will have their last home
game on Thursday, Oct. 16, against
a club team from Spanish Fork, the
Utah Storm 98, at 5 p.m.
If they come out with a win then
they could possibly qualify to go on
to regional play. The men have been
practicing hard recently to become
better as a team and fix mistakes
from past games in order to try to
beat their opponents.
Jose Cisneros stated, We have
another chance, and like a 75 percent
chance that well be able to play in
regionals, but it all depends on how
the other teams do and how we do
on Thursday, so we definitely want
to get the win.
Volleyball, life, laughter and fun for Gardner

Michaella Crooks

The six, foot one-inch freshman

comes from a family of three and
played volleyball for nine years. Being
a football freak with attending the super
bowl on her bucket list is USU Easterns
Kyndall Gardners dream. She is a
middle/right side hitter on the volleyball
team and comes from Hurricane, Utah.
After college Gardner, probably
will travel the world. If you are thinking
of playing volleyball, Gardners advise
is to, Never stop practicing because
volleyball is a repetitive sport. The more
you practice it the better you get. Always
keep practicing and stay mentally sharp
and never let the mental game get the
better of you.
She is good at, being a dork and
being silly and goofy. Never take me
too seriously. The closest Gardner has
ever come to being arrested was, One
night all of my friends went out to the
desert in my friends Jeep for a bonfire.
We found pallets to make a fire with and
we had 20 of them stacked high. We set
them all on fire and then the next thing
we know, a bunch of kids from my rival
school came and said that those where
their pallets.
Everyone started to fight each other
and I didnt know what to do, so I just
grabbed some girl and started to fight
her because it looked fun. When I got
up her pants were on fire, so the boys
helped her put the fire out. Then they all
got in the car and drove off. As we were
pulling into town, the cops stopped us
and asked us why we were so dirty. We
told them that we got into a brawl. They
asked us was if we won, we laughed and yell at him to never try to kiss me again

home and it had only been 45 minutes
since I left for the date so I just walked
upstairs and went to bed.
If Gardner could be a cartoon character she would be, SpongeBob because
he lives under the ocean and that would
be freaking sick.
Gardners team took state in volleyball when she was a senior in 2014.
Garnder stated, We played Desert Hills
and we beat them in three. We were not
favored to win so it was nice.
Gardner lives with, her best friend
Shania Hurst who has been her best
friend since birth. We decided to sign
together and play volleyball here.
When Gardner was a sophomore
in high school she had a stroke. She is
supposed to be paralyzed on the left side
of her face, but was lucky to recover.
Gardner is reckless when it comes
to four-wheelers and other automobiles.

times, a snowmobile easily 20 times
and rolled a rhino once and have never
broken a bone.

Ebola, I plan on majoring in the medical field, and training under my dads
best friend who just became a doctor in
dermatology and becoming his medical
assistant. I also want to travel the world
and do humanitarian projects in places
like Africa and Peru.
Gardner has never been on a plane
before and that is what spikes her interest
to travel the world.

Flying above the competition, the
Lady Eagles soared to a perfect 3-0 over
the last two weeks. The ladies showed
quite a bit of skill playing at Salt Lake
Community College and on their home
field.
Playing in Salt Lake against Colorado
Northwestern on Oct. 3, they won by the
score of 3-1. Western Wyoming was next
to fall to the ladies with a score of 2-0.
Heading in strong for the first game
played at home this season, the Lady
Eagles were ready for whatever Trinidad
Community College had to throw at them.
It was a fast paced game with the Lady
Eagles coming out on top, 1-0. Ashlyn

Matthews assisted Lindsey Bray in scoring the only goal of the entire game in
the first half of the game.
Both teams had opportunities to
score. We had a few more but neither
team could finish as strongly as we had
hoped, but we got the job done. Trinidad
will be one of the biggest competitors in
the region, Mashaela Farris said. The
Lady Eagles now have an impressive
record of 11-1-2 and hope to continue
winning when they travel to Kansas to
play Maplewood Community College
on Thursday, Oct. 16, Johnson County
Community College on Friday, Oct. 17,
and Iowa Lakes Community College on
Saturday, Oct. 18. The girls are currently
ranked 18th in the NJCAA.
The Black
Mamba is
ready to
strike again
Josh Van Weezep
sports writer
joshvanweezep@comcast.net
Kobe Bryant, one of the 50 greatest players of all time, is back at full strength. One
of the most lethal scorers and all-around
players to ever play the game is back and
ready to go to work.
Bryant missed 59 games in the 2014
NBA season due to an injury to his tibia,
just after recovering from a torn Achilles
suffered in the 2012-2013 season. Bryant is
a warrior on the court and considered one
of, if not the most, competitive player in the
NBA. He trails Michael Jordan for career
points by 592. This season could be the last
for the Black Mamba but he wont go down
without a fight.
There was a story told by one of Kobe
Bryants trainers. The trainer told Kobe during practice that if Bryant needed anything
or wanted to work out, he should call him.
So that night at about 3:30 a.m., the trainers
phone rang. Bryant wanted to get a workout in.
When the trainer arrived at the gym, Bryant
was already dripping with sweat from doing
dribbling drills. This was at 4:30 a.m. After
a couple hours of extensive conditioning
drills and some weight lifting, the trainer
left. Before leaving, the trainer asked Bryant
how much longer he would be in the gym.
Bryant responded by telling him he wanted
to get some shots up, then he would leave.
The trainer went back home and crashed
on the couch, tired from the early morning
workout. When team practice time came at
1 p.m., the trainer went back to the gym. He
walked in and saw Bryant shooting on one
of the hoops. He went over and told Bryant
good job in the workout that morning and
asked him what time he ended up finishing
his shooting workout. Bryant responded that
he was just about to finish. He wanted to get
800 makes and he was just finishing.
Bryant is one of the hardest working
athletes on the planet. Some count him out
this season because of his age, 36, and past
injuries. If anyone can come back from a
serious injury, its Bryant. The man is an
animal. As a kid, I never liked Bryant, but
over the years I have come to respect him as
a player. His game is freakishly similar to
Jordans, the best player of all time, and his
work ethic is legendary. Writers and reporters from Sports Illustrated and SLAM
magazine said that before the USA mens
team practices, it wasnt uncommon to see
Lebron James joking around on one end
of the court, meanwhile Bryant was on the
other end already sweaty and putting up his
1000th shot for the day.
Bryants Los Angeles Lakers are in the
process of rebuilding this year and many
wonder if Bryant will be able to bear the
load that he no doubt will be put on his
shoulders. The Lakers are not considered
to be even close to contenders for the title
this season, but knowing Bryant he will do
all in his power to win basketball games and
make a play off push.
Bryant studies the
game, he watches
hours and hours of
game film to fine tune
his actions on the
court. Bryant may
be old, but he will still
be effective.
