said.
Watson, which is sometimes called the main library,
mostly has humanities and
social science collections, as
well as the international collections, Becker said. Anschutz is very popular with
undergraduate
students.
The learning studio is located there, which is a collaborative learning space. The
writing center is there also,
as well as tutoring services,
group study spaces and research assistance. Anschutz
also houses the sciences, education, business and political document collections.
Sydney Wickliffe, a junior and University library
intern, said she prefers Watson when it comes to studying, and Anschutz for finals.
I think Anschutz is a
great place, but it feels a little more social, which makes
it hard for me to study,
Wickliffe said. The learning
studio in Anschutz is one of
my favorite services that the
libraries offer. I used it a lot
during finals to study with
friends. Its really nice to
have your own space with a
whiteboard to work.
Wickliffe said Watson
will also have its own, smaller area similar to the learning studio this semester. It
will also have new furniture
and power outlets to make
group studying easier, according to Becker.
New furniture is being

floors of Watson to better

genuinely, because it transformed my life, my familys

the audience.
Now that Bendapudi has
officially been approved as
provost and executive vice
chancellor, a role which
she assumed on July 1, she
wants to use the office to
give back to the University.
Bendapudi, who previously served as dean of
business, is the oldest of
three children and grew up
in a small town in south
India. She said her father
decided to obtain his doctorate around the time she
was five.
We knew that he was

and honestly did not know
where it was or what it was.
But he came to KU, she
said. He had choices, interestingly. It couldve been
Iowa, Wisconsin, or [the
University of Texas], but he
picked KU and he made the
best choice possible, in my
mind.
Later, Bendapudi and

Hamer said she thinks

Raines said.
Raines said one thing
she always tells her students is that they should
know their rights.
If you dont know what
is available to you, you cant
get the most out of your experience and your time,
Raines said.
Some of the the services
student might not realize
are available to them are
the options to take a class
as Credit/No Credit or the
repeat option.
Taking a class Credit/No
Credit means a student will
receive credit for a class
as long as they receive a C
or higher. This prevents a
low grade from damaging a
students GPA. The repeat
option allows students to
retake a class in which they
received a D or F and replace that score with a better grade in their GPA.
Raines said these options are a great resource
for students.
I know its more money, but in the long haul, this
is the time to correct that.
And theyre not thinking
about grad school, theyre
not thinking about the next
step, but it could really affect it, Raines said.

Larzalere said one of the
bigger services the office
advises students on is filing
taxes. He said the issue is

international students.

Landlord-Tenant Issues
The top everyday issue
the office advises students
on, Larzalere said, is disputes between students and
their landlords. He said the
office sees hundreds of cases every year, which mainly
focus on the return of security deposits.
Any time you move
into an apartment, if they
dont ask for a deposit, I
walk away from the place,
he said. That would be my
advice. Theyre very likely
going to, at the end of your
lease, still charge you for
something. But you dont
have a deposit down at that
point, so you really dont
have a lot of leverage, so
they send a bill to you, your
cosigners or your guarantors.
He said at that point,
Advising Services
Legal Services for Students can advise and provide representation students on nearly any legal
issue, Larzalere said, except for issues involving
two University students or
issues involving a student
and University officials.
When its a KU problem, we can give advice, but
we cant represent them,
Alcohol related
incidents
Larzalere said issues
of minors being charged
with possession of alcohol
often coincide with fake
IDs. However, the process
for students is different,
depending on whether the
violation occurred on or off
campus.
If you get charged with
a criminal charge on campus, you will also face a
conduct hearing. Even a
minor in possession charge,
if thats on campus or in the
dorm, you will also have a
conduct hearing that will be
held with conduct officers

Stranger Things
Netflix enthusiasts had
something to talk about
when this show came out
mid-July. Why? Because it
is the rare sci-fi thriller series that works. It proved
capable of not only detailing what happens when
the comfort of suburbia is
threatened, but also the
eternal struggle of parent/
child communication.
Set in the 80s, Stranger
Things is a story of a town
in Indiana where a select
group of families are shaken by the disappearance of
a boy the son of Joyce
(Winona Ryder).
The cause of the boys
disappearance is the root of
the drama: aliens who harness forms of electricity to
communicate and tend to
attack humans in their most
vulnerable state of mind.
There are many other
aspects of the show, but
what sticks out is that its
perfectly saturated with
nostalgia and that nostalgia
resonates with any generation. Call it the Twinkie of
television.
Divorce
In the last year or two,
there has been a trend
dominating TV series with
strong female characters:
severely dysfunctional relationships that win us over.
Take Amazon Primes Catastrophe, Netflixs Love
and even in a more visceral
extent, Starzs The Girlfriend Experience.
An HBO deep cut is soon
to make it on that list, ushering in the return of Sarah
Jessica Parker to the small
screen and creepy patches

Sophomore
development
As an unfortunate result
of injuries and depth issues,
Kansas featured quite a few
freshmen last year who will
have significant roles in 2016.
First, theres obvious names
like quarterback Ryan Willis, who started eight games
last season, or wide receiver
Steven Sims Jr., whose 349
receiving yards were second
on the team.
However, key contributors like guard Jacob Bragg
(five starts last year) and
defensive tackle Daniel Wise
(seven starts and 3.5 sacks
last year) could contribute
to an improved Kansas team
this year.
Thats not even mentioning defensive end Dorance
Armstrong Jr., who finished
with five tackles for loss in
addition to 3.5 sacks as a
freshman. He has all but certainly earned a starting spot
on the defensive line this
year.
It makes me feel different because last year I wasnt
the guy to talk, to be vocal or
anything, Armstrong said
about the sophomore jump.
But now, as a team, the
team has pushed the leadership thing on me so now Im
more vocal and get the team
going a lot.
Speed
Its not exactly a secret
that speed is an important
Offensive line
Its hard to run a successful offense when you give up
40 sacks in a season. Luckily,
the 2016 Jayhawks are more
experienced and healthier than they were a season
ago. Last year, freshmen offensive linemen like Jacob
Bragg, Clyde McCauley and
Larry Hughes were forced
into starting roles, which
had mixed results, but often
resulted in constant pressure
on the quarterback.
Fall camp will be a crucial
test to see if these sopho-

New Coaches
A lot of interesting things
to watch for this fall will concern progression made by
players and questions surrounding who will start at
what position. Despite that,
potentially the most important thing to watch at camp
is the new Kansas coaching
staff.
Beaty returns for his his
second season but with a few
new faces on his staff, some
of which college football fans
may already recognize.

Quarterback battle
Cozart was enjoying the
best year of his college career before getting injured
last October. Through just
four games, he had already
passed for a career-high 752
yards and completed 63 percent of his throws.
At that point, freshman
Ryan Willis stepped in and
broke the Kansas freshman
record for passing yards in a
season. During Willis more
successful outings, it seemed
that he would be the simple
choice to start the 2016 season.
Beaty will have to choose
between the more mobile,
experienced and, most importantly, healthy Cozart

After a phenomenal
season with the Kansas
volleyball team in 2015, junior right side hitter Kelsie
Payne received numerous
honors; she was named to
the All-Big 12 First Team
and was an AVCA FirstTeam All-American. These
honors showcased Paynes
talent and potential.
However, possibly her
highest honor was her selection in June as a representative for the United
States at the Pan-American
Cup on the 12-woman volleyball roster. Now shes a
bronze medalist.
It was an awesome feeling to be selected, Payne
said after returning from
the Pan-American Cup.
Her Kansas teammate,
Cassie Wait, was invited to
compete for a roster spot
and trained with the team
until they traveled to the
Dominican Republic on
July 2. Although Payne and
Wait were not able to experience the adventure together, they shared an extra
week of practice together.
The team practiced for
just a week before traveling for the Cup, one which
Payne used to not only better herself as an athlete, but

I had never been to an

resorts, Payne said. Some
houses were only one room,
but housed 10 people.
Seeing how people live
in a much different part of
the world made Payne reflect on where shes been
and what she may change
in the future.
I am definitely going
to be more appreciative
of what I have in my life,
Payne said. I dont want to
lose sight on whats really
important.
Being able to represent
her country is one experience Payne will remember
for the rest of her life, but
what she brought home
with her may be better than
the entire trip itself.
My mentality has gotten tougher and my ability to be coached became
stronger, Payne said.
Payne will be able to
take her newfound abilities and bring her Jayhawks to heights theyve
never reached before. First
though, they will take it one
step at a time, just as they
did last season.

Chicago Cubs
With MLB regular-season play winding down
and the postseason right
around the corner, the Boston Red Sox, Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs, and San
Francisco Giants have begun to establish themselves
as elite teams this season.
The tight matchups and
standout talent this year
has helped raise the question: Who will win the
2016 World Series?
For the Chicago Cubs,
their path begins with
manager Joe Maddon, a
man who has helped bring
back the winning tradition
to the Chicago Cubs organization. In 2015, he was able
to lead the Cubs to the NL
championship game and
was named the NL manager of the year.
The Chicago Cubs, who
have suffered a 108-year
championship
drought,
namic duo.
Bryant currently holds
the second spot in the NL
for home runs hit with 28
while Rizzo is also fourth in
the NL runs batted in, with
85 this year.
Although the Chicago
Cubs are considered by
many as the team to beat
this postseason, American
League teams such as the
Texas Rangers and Boston Red Sox have shown
they are ready to put up
a fight. With the Rangers
currently sitting on top of
the AL West and David Ortiz having one of the best
seasons of his career on his
retirement tour, there is no
shortage of competition.
Although these teams
may have some of the qualifications necessary to win it
all, the Chicago Cubs deep
bullpen, strategic manager
and pure talent at the plate
will allow them to prevail
among the rest and put an
end to their organizations
championship drought.

moves made at the deadline, the Rangers now
boast one of the most
well-rounded and complete
lineups in all of baseball.
