Allison Tucker No Preference Freshman A group of freshmen take their walking tour with guides who take them from their soon to be residence halls back to Case for the rest of their activities. On orientation days the usually quiet college town swarms with tour groups from around 4 to 6pm. During the summer a population of some 40,000 live in the area permanently, while when the school year begins another some 40,000 students swell the population to twice the size'. After a full day of orientation activities; Amanda Krai relaxes by playing some frisbee. The game took place outside of Case Hall, the dorm that houses all of the incoming freshmen- far their orientation over the summer. Krai graduated from Woodhaven High School, and started at Michigan State- University in the fall.

Arriving bac|lto South Complex, the main Orientation Program (AOP) is a two-day program that location of AOP, students were brouglmback together most students have participated in.

At the end of With the earliest dates, ¡rathe begill|g of June and the night, students could play recreational sports, listen the latest in the middle of August, AOP served as a time to music and play games or relax with fellow freshmen for incoming freshmen to schedule their classes and in their dorms or the cafeteria. No preference freshman meet fellow freshmen. At the begin'ngg of the first day, Amanda Krai liked this part of the orientation the best. students checked into th’fraassigned rooms, which they "It was a good social experience after having to go shared with one other student, and attended the "Wha| to all those presentations earlier in the day," she said.

"They made sure we were on the right track." "Talking to the students was more beneficial because After scheduling, students were free to go with their they gave you real answers," said Melissa Parker, a parents and return home, with thoughts of starting the pre-nursing freshman. "I liked the smaller groups as well school year in a new place. because we got to interact with others." Angela Wilson siMM a day in the of Anna Simpson When the quiet days of summer finally gave way to the end of August, campus regained its familiar energetic atmospherb as a new wave of faces moved into ,the residence halls on Aug. 22. For most of the roughly 7,OOOincoming freshmen, moving away from home was a big transition-one that required a lot of preparation from not only the students, but from the university as well. One such freshman, Anna Simpson, an Ann Arbor native, said applying to the university was partly her dad's idea. She said he told her it would be a good, idea to send in an application. Even |p, ‘ Simpson had her own motives for coming to the university. w "I wanted to get out of Ann Arbor," the no-preference freshman said. "Plus, it's a really good school." To help ease thé transition of living with someone she didn't know, Simpson met up with her roommate before move in day. "We sat down and said, 'Alright, this .is what I got, and this is what we need to get,'" Simpson spid. The result, as Simpson described, was "one big mess." "it looks like we just threw everything together, because that's what we did," Simpson said. "I know where everything is; there's just no theme." On move-in day, Simpson and her father made the journey 'rom Ann Arbor in the morning and Simpson said there wasn't- much conversation in the car, they were just "shooting the breeze." When Simpson arrived in East Lansing, she said was a little anxious to be moving into her room in Emmons Hall in the Brody Complex, but was surprised to find that it wasn't that bad. "Everything was really easy, we got a tub to put all my things in," Simpson said. However, there was one thing that did surprise her no matter how prepared she was or how smoothly the move went. "The campus is huge," she said. "All my classes are far away from each other." About 95 percent of freshmen live on campus, said Paul Goldblatt, Director of Residence Life. This year, a new program starred by Fred Kayne, Associate Director of University Housing, gave MSU staff one faculty the opportunity io help freshmen move in. About 1 20 of the faculty and staff helped out, Kayne said. "It added to the experience of‘he freshmen to have faculty and administrators there to greet them and make them feel welcome," Kayne said. "Next year I'm hoping for more people to participate." Even though the rain came down on move-in day, Goldblatt said things still went quickly. "There were very little complications/' Goldblatt said. "Housing has ¡the move-in process) down to a science;" Although the housing department may know exactly how to handle move-in, Simpson had some advice for the freshmen of years to come to make their transition'into college a/little easier. "They should bring a whole lot of power strips and extension cords and lights." i Jennifer Orlando Photo by Brian Laskowski ■»3reek'r^B§ws tfraten^B esegrp^Kp he.pt at the barlebue. -Bditsmm Field gSp lojfof a^Si thr,c^ah tfe week 8|f^^aa^Hhcmed ^Hnt8 Go <^Hek Babeqae.

McKinney's platform was ''Racing for Lives With the Leukemia & Lymphome Society." She became! dedicated to her platform after her own cancer scare about two years, ago. "I. got involved because I want to help give children with Cancer the opportunity to live the life that they deserve," she stated in her pageant form, cn And although McK’nney didn't come away-with: the grand prize at the end of the night, she said .she was still content with how she. performed. “I felt like I did a great job in everything with the exception of talent," she said. "I was thrown, off! from.the sfdrf when my music started before I was ready. About.halfway through I mixed up one of my moves ond was thrown off for the rest of the dance." Despite the-slight mishap, McKinney kept her optimism. - ; "Oh well, it happens sometimes," she said. ■. ; This happy-go-lucky attitude for the girl who began entering pageants when she was 17 is one of the main characteristics that set her apart as a pageant girl, partly because of the difficult childhood she endured, y r "No matter what situation you come from, you can do anything," she said. "Try to relax and be, happy for what you have. Try. not to take things for granted because too many do." Jennifer Orlando; Photo, by Chris Konieczki Day in') the Life ËL. a aI Out for Hoops i.

Hezekiah Griggs III Black Power Rally Speaker Av ziskowst er 'le ss ss ss ■ sk lly id of nt io le of TS , Every weekday the tall man with the.gentle, smile and firm handshake goes to the barn on Col­ lege Drive, where he loads and composts a mixture that will be used as fertilizer for the university and surrounding farms; ; , Tony Boughion has been working at the university for a decade, but .has only held his. current position as compost facility manager for four, years. He said he enjoys the, job he does. “I was already here as an hourly employee. This position was the next step on the ladder," Boughton said. "There are few places to get an agricu.lture^experience like this. MSU is good for agricultural.jobs." Boughton wakes up at 6:30am every morning and makes his way to the southwest corner of campus, where he spends his day loading and unloading his compost heaps. "The first thing that I do every morning is go to the university farms and check my e-mail," he said. "Then the- manur'e is brought into all of the separate bays to be heated and prepared. I work on that until abolit two; then I clean up." . The bays that Boughton works with are about 230 yards long and 10 yards Wide, with two long, slats running the length. They ate filled With a mixture of manure, straw, pavilion shavings and waste feed from the university.. The bpmlBofighton worksfin is located of\ a dirt trail just past the university dairy buildings, which are filled with thehbws that produce much of the manure that is composted.; All of the fertilizer Boughton composts saves the university money. Instead of buying fertilizer from another source, the university uses its own stock and me rest ijs sold to local farmers and gardeners. |l "We compost 10,000 yards a year," Boughton said. "The compost is heated at ,132 degrees Tor three days and then taken out of the bays for storage." Boughton always wears his work boots and work pants, and carriesfhis shovel when working in the barn that holds the composting bay. Once the compost is in the bays,, a huge machine aerates the mixture to create: the right combination of gases. .. To go along: with the extensive amount of fertilizer Boughton composts every year, the facility exports 13,000 pounds of phosphorus annually, The barn is not big enough to contain all of the material, so the university uses it for profit. However, there is a constant struggle to maintain the level of output at which fho compost has been sold and produced. "The facility is funded through central administration," Boughton said. "We lose 20 acres a year to new buildings and parking lots." Boughton wants to stay at the university and become an expert in his field, but he realizes he still has work to do to reach his goal. "I would like to be considered one of the experts at composting for MSU," he Said, "I have a long ways to go. I would like to move higher on the ladder of success and have a warm office in the winter."

In thBpast fheiMub offered tunHups on lawn mowers, but this year decided to sell Michigan grown cherries that several of the members worked with earlier in the year, as they came up a with a safe way to wash the fruit before it was packaged and sold to the public. "The container is made our of polylactic aBd, which is a corn product, and it makes them fully biodegradabISso in commercial composting conditions they will degrade within 40 days;" said biosystems ¡unS and fundraising chair Abby Johfen. Biosystems engineers work to make sure the community has a safe and clean eiSironment to live in with safe life necessifie||lsuch as food and water, by applying their skills to problems presented by living things and the||atural environment. Proceeds from the dried cherry sale was used to fund a trip to the Agrjfultural and Biosystems Engineering Association (ASABE) Midwest Regional Rally at the Univeristy of Wiscbn||i-Madison at the end of February.The group also planned on helping build a hjfuse through Habitat for liiimaBty and hosting a number of events during Engineering Week on campus, ranging from tug-of-war onAce to a date auction and a charity ball ending the week. The Biosystems Student Engineering Club met every other week for about an hour and Bually hosted a speakerRr presenter from the industry or an environmental actioBgroup.

On display at various booths were sample products, from Combos and candy bars to pizza boxes and coffee cans. The [ob seekers, ready to hand out their resumes and make valuable business contacts, were able to speak with representatives from General Mills, Kimberly-Clark and Gerber, among others. Alyssa DeFilippo, a 2007 packaging graduate and former member of loPP, attended the career fair. She said the best part of loPP membership is the opportunity to meet other packaging students. She said it's nice to .have a community of people with .similar interests.. DeFilippo said the group brings in guest speakers for their meetings and getting tlrelr business.cards and hearing them speak about the industry are great methods for networking. Marie Evers, a packaging sophomore and seprgtary df loPP, said there were about 150 companies at the fair and the interest was so high that some firms had to be tyffined away. "There're pharmaceutical, food, cosmetiMs and computer companies here. Just about everything," she said. The president of the group, Rachel Green, a packaging-senior, saidlhe's had two internships and received them both through contacts she made at loPP networking even® This has put fSr in a gogd place, she said, because she has helped the companies get set up at thegareer fair and now knows ab<^«60 percent of the company representatifi® attending the fair. This year, the annual Packaging Student Conference will be hosted on campus. loPP puts on various other events throughout the year, including a haunted house trip, an egg-dropsiontest and factory tours.

Publications were stories, upon stories until;:: the invention;of the camera. The photograph had arrived. Soon photos were printed, but oily to accompany a story. Over time the fledgling medium gained acceptance as an artistic form and a means of story teilingiTThis was the dawn of the photo essay. Mi4;its most infantile form the photo essay was used Jrfg German magazines for the purpose of exposé starting in 1920. Quickly, photo essays were realized as an essential development in communication and the pictures began to tell their own story. Decade after decade the photo essay grew in popularity until it reached, some would say, its maturation in the mid-1900s with the creation of LIFE magazine. Over the next half-century LIFE would cease publication, but would||eave behind an ever-lasting legacy of the power of a photo. Toihonor the tradition of photo essays the Red Cedar Log photography staff decided to put together their own pieces of work to share a story. The choice to feature photo essays was because they allow for greater depth; the photos themselves are not simply a bunch of good pictures thrown into each section, but together they form a complete idea. Each essay captures an aspect of the university and life in general through the eyes of the photographer that allows them to maximize their potential and share their artistic ability .with the world. The theory behind photo essays is that the montage of photos will potentially bring to light a subject matter and a new layer of understanding. Allowing more than one photo to be tied together allows creativity to be maximized to show readers that photographers have a high level of commitment to make the most of a subject's impact. The flexibility of subject matter is not only for photographers, but viewers as well. The photos presented are meant to open the mind for exploration and insight, allowing for new opinions to be formed. The photography staff hopes that viewers can look beyond the image that lies in front of them and find a connection in every story, or at the very least to take pleasure in a single photo. Stephanie Defever Photo by Jeff Proulx, Featured Photographm .11 Wilderness is a problematic term to use when referring to nature. It calls up an image of the mighty mountain, the great roaring river and the mysterious rain forest each devoid of human interference. This sort of thinking often leaves people feeling detached from nature, believing it is separate from us and that it is only "out there." This prevents a true holistic connection to the environment. However, wilderness is all around us. Here on campus there is a diversity of landscapes filled with animals of all kinds. On campus':itself there are several areas that serve as a home for wildlife including the Sanford Natural Area, the Baker Woodlot, the Inland Lakes and Wildlife Research area, to name a few. Running right through our central campus is a biodiverse river, its waters providing the students with a bountiful environment at our fingertips. These environments may not call to mind some of the ideas people may associate with their larger, grander cousins, but they too are just as much a part of the world as we are and we cannot remove ourselves from wilderness. So go and celebrate Brian Laskowski [Featured < Photography Frmfhe Mi/puf/Pc B8 Gt When you live on a college campus it's easy to overlook the remarkable details of your surroundings.Mie exceptional becomes mundane; the outrageous grows to be ordinary and: 'the profound fades into banality.

For this brief period in our lives we're allowed to suspend the many rigors of the real world’and live in the insulated bubble that is the University. I ‘nink that's why our parents always say that some of their best years were at, ''¡nseif:ic<§|ege name nere." When else is it not only acceptable, but expected to live off Ramen nooc es so you might support your drinking habits? Or. kayak into the sewer that is the Red Cedar River? Or paint a massive bouSer just because you can? I have a theory that one day I will wake up, be 40 and look back on my youth to realize that some of my fondest memories were of when I was young, broke, stupid and without a clue - and I'm ok with t®t. Just as long as I can say thalijtopk the time to watchjiny drops of water collect fiside a pitcher plant and that I recall justllow large and clumsy I felt examifpg a miniscule statue at the art museum. I want to remember the hot wax that dripped onto my frozen fingers at a candlelight vigil and the lessons learned not on y from my professors, but from my peers as well. From the minute to the grandiose, these details and expeSfjjfences are all around us. The only catch is that you have to notice them in order to remember them.

Some of the major moments in a college student's.life include getting accepted, thejfjfirst lecture with more than 200 students or their 21st birthday bar crawl. All of which lead up to an individual's most defining moment as a college student: graduation. However, for my photo essay, I focused on the more indecisive moments that occur everyday. I think that these moments can just as easily define our lives as college students. All of the photos in my essay were taken within a 24-hour period starting at sunset on January 14 and ending at sunset on January 15. I decided to go on a 24-hour shoot because I thought that it would be interesting to work with all of the different lighting condi­ tions that occur throughout the day. I also wanted to challenge myself as a photographer to capture the essence of a common day on campus. I chose each of these photos because I think each one is able to capture the beauty of ordinary life, but each in a unique way. For the design: of my photo essay,Htried to portray the idea of 24-hour photo shoot. I decided to have the pictures placed in the order that they were taken. It is a timeline of a single day. Missy Sainz ■-s'S’! % ’/vj ■ 4 When asked to capture mySiterpretation of the university ffldecided to focus on the most important pan of the school... the students. Drawing on my love for informal portraits I created this collage of students on campus. WHe each picture shows a story of an ■dividual student!; when the images come together we begin to see the campus as a living entity. |hough the buildings change little from year to year, the university expands as new students come in and other students graduate and spread across the world as a||mni. I could^fill this enBe yearbook with portraits and stillinot capture the students, teachers, faculty and alumiM that are this university, butfflhave done my best.

And what may be cool on the island, is not necessarily what is cool on the mafland. When it comes to fenders and baskets, the bigger the better. For mas$ Mackinac, their bike is their pride and joy and says a lot about their personality, and I found myself showing my pride by taking more than I Isgew what to do with. This particular photo was taken near the highest point on the island in October when I had realized that H gone all summer without getting a picture of Sugarloaf Rock. While walking back to my bike after capturing the image, I looked at where! and how I had parked my bike, snapped a photo and was pleasantly surprised with how it had turned out. While my picture that I took Sugarloaf is fairly unmemorable, this photo was unplanned and turned out to be my best shot from the day.

The space seemed to come to life, breathing in the group projects and chitchat of the people inside. But some days, the library exhaled slowly and waited. For instance, on a typical' weekend, like, one particularly bright morning ini April, the only sounds in the library were the hiss of the heating and cooling system and the buzz of the overhead florescent lights.

At 9 p,m| there was a line several people deep at the reference desk. Most of the computers in the main lounge were filled, and even the designated "study floors" in the west wing filled,slowly. Backpacks, filled with, books, papers and laptops, began to appear frequently. With coats slung: over backs of chairs and fingers poised over Keyboards, the studying.could commence.

Sam's work day starts after he eats a balanced breakfast of Purina Pro Plan dog food and jumps in Heckman's car for the ride to the university's police station to work as he was trained, alongside Heckman as an explosives and palro! K-9 Unit dog whose duties include tracking, - .building searches and aggression. Sam and HècKÎjfan-hcr^ feSen WfirktngdagetKer for-more than seven years. Sam, now nine and a half years old, is ready to retire from the force and permanently move in with Heckman and hisHxfmiiWrfg '’ fipspite Heckman and Sam's obvious physical differences, the two really are a team, as their dispositions are very similar. Officer Heckman considers himself a pretfy simple and laidback guy**! andjijs partneSKsfctaken on those same qualities. i "Héfs goofy; he just has a goofy disposition about him.Fte's happy-go,ducky," Heckman said. "They always say your dogwvill adopt your disposition and he has." % When Sam was first shipped to the U.S. from Hiallanaj he-wasn't supposée) to be matched up with Heckmah; It was purely an accident. The dogralckman wa^originally supposed to work with was a female Belgian Malinois who was so .whiny and easily scared that she failed what the officers calkthe “courage test". "I'm so glad she didn't work oui. It was meant to happen. I'm a simple person and most of the dogs had weird names like Xena, Jackopnd Yaffl He James in and he's Sam. Perfect fit," Heckman said. ^ One wouldn't think a German shepherd police dog would be very loving or gentle, but when he's not tracking criminals' trails or sniffing out explosives Sam's soft brown eyes and long pink .tongue tell a different story. "I have a 2-year-old son and out of the three dogs Sam is. his favorite. The big bad police dog and him are best friends..Go figure," Heckman said. "You would never believe he likes doing the bite Work " It's obvious am loves his job and Heckman said that, if Sam' could, he would work seven days a week,tall year long. He adds that Sam's dedication and consistency have remained unchanged ever since their first shift together, which Heckman still remembers, on Aug. 1 8, 2000. i . Even when he was out of commission for six weeks due tp a leg inju/y, Sam came back to work and it was like he never stopped working and picked up right where-he left off. From helping to find a local Autistic child who ran away from some, to clearing every single room in the Capital City Airport just after 9/] 1, Sam has paid his dues to the university's polibei'J force and been by Heckman'.s^ide every step of the way. "I've been fortunate he's oeen a very good dog,"me said. "I love this guy to death."

From people who might be slightly intoxicated, to those who might be just a little bit strange, a night receptionist in the dorms sees.it all. Adriana Reaves, a computational mathematics freshman, -is one of those lucky few. She works as a night receptionist in the: Brody Complex Like many of the other residence halls on campus, Emmons Hall, one of the six dorm buildings I in the Brody Complex, only allows access after hours to students living in the'hall with a vd||| night receptionists start their shifts, they lock all of the doors to the residence hall in order to ensure that no one can enter the building without coming through main entrance and ; ;isM|Bg;their pli|d0.'t "We sign in at 1 1:30 [p.m,] - it depends on what dorm. - then we go ground and lock all of 1 the doors, in this dorm [Emmons Hall], a resident has to swipe their ID at all times to get into the 1 building,'' said Reaves. . The big difference between the job of a day receptionist and that of a night receptionist is that the day.receptionist sits behind the main desk of the residence hall, while the night receptionist brings out a make-shift desk right next to the main. door. This allows the night receptionist to better : monitor the door and to easily accommodate students entering the building. "They [the day receptionists] don't encouhter as many:interesting people. If is more personal at the night receptionist desk - some people are buzzed,"’said Reaves. If they don't have an ID, many students will fry to cut deals with the night receptionists in order to gain access to the hall. "Some people will try and barter to get in. Everyone must have a valid ID. If someone has Ibst \ their ID they can get into the building; however, they must first be looked up," said Reaves;1 The typical night receptionist shift runs from 1 1:30 p.m. to 7 a.m. Normally, a supervisor is clso on duty during that time, in case things get a little out of hand. Their responsibilities include chasing down anyone who .is attempting to gain access to the hall without first swiping their ID or someone who is frying to sneak in the back door and dealing with any unruly individuals who just i won't calm down.. If a resident does something in the dorms that is against the rules, their punishment will often be to sit with the night receptionist during their .shift in order to learn to appreciate how hard it is to stay up and deal with impertinent students all-night long.

Uiileann piper and Ireland native Paddy Keenan was in East Lansing to help celebrate St. Patrick's Day with the city's Residents and those from surrounding communities. Accompanied by fellow Irish guitarist and singer John Walsh, Keenan performed a variety of Irish music, including some reels and jigs. While Keenan was able to play multiple instruments, he mostly played the uiileann pipes - a small set of traditional Irish bagpipes powered by the use of bellows that are worn around the waist. Keenan has been playing the instrument since he was nine years old. The event was put together by Ten Pound Fiddle. This group is a collaboration of Ihexsarnpus Folk Song Society, as well as the Lansing Area Folk Music Society. Ten Pound Fiddle produced several shows over the course of the year.
