MORRIS A FINALIST FOR SCHOLAR- ATHLETE AWARD Iowa captain and senior Hawks turn into sack city linebacker James Morris has been named a finalist among 170 other candidates for the 2013 National Football Foundation Scholar-Athlete Awards. Each school is limited to one nominee apiece, but one must be a senior, and have at least a GPA of 3.2 to be eligible to receive the award. Morris, a political-science major, has been awarded Academic All-Big Ten honors two years running now and was named to the Capital One District VI Academic All-America team in 2012. Sixteen recipients will be selected by the Foundation, and the results will be announced through a press release on Thurs- day, Oct. 31. Each recipient will receive an $18,000 postgraduate scholarship. “The National Football Foun- dation would like to personally congratulate each of the nominees as well as their schools on this tremendous honor,” National Football Foundation President & CEO Steven J. Hatchell said in a release. “We are extremely proud to highlight each semifinalist’s achievements, which show that football players can balance between academics and athletics at the highest level. There is no question that the National Football Foundation Awards Committee will have an incredibly difficult task in selecting the finalists from among Iowa defensive lineman Dominic Alvis (on the ground) sacks Minnesota quarterback Philip Nelson in TCF Bank Stadium on Sept. 28in Minneapolis.

From competitive parade floats 201 to ’90s music reminiscences with 3 Third Eye Blind, Homecoming 2013 works to reflect the UI’s ‘one spirit.’

By Emma McClatchey [email protected]

Nationwide, Homecoming celebrations are all about welcoming alumni back while embodying the “spirit” of a school or community. If this is true for the Uni- versity of Iowa, the Hawkeye spirit must be a high-energy blend of competition, creativity, and nostalgia. “I think that the atmosphere of the week is really the center of the cele- brations,” said UI Homecoming Council Executive Director Ayat Mujais. “There isn’t one event that is the main focus. Everything is tied together, and all of the Iowa spirit that we see during the week is really the center.” The UI’s Homecoming Week began on Sunday with the first-ever Celebrating Cultural Diversity Festival, and contin- ues through Oct. 6 with the Iowa Shout spirit event, Campus Activities Board comedy and film shows, Homecom- ing parade and court coronation, free SCOPE concert, and the Iowa football team’s contest against Michigan State in between.
