Celebrating the artistry, stories and timeless characters of comics, National Comic Book Day exists for fans and collectors to bond over a shared love for one of the most unique storytelling mediums. The term “comic book” origi- nates from the  rst modern comic book printed in 1933, a compilation of humorous comic strips titled “Famous Funnies.” Now comic books are best known as the homes of beloved pop culture icons such as Superman, Batman, Iron Man and Spider-Man, and these char- acters have gained even more pop- ularity from their portrayals on the

COLLUMN Times spreads misinformation Blunder in Brett Kavanaugh article should not go unpunished

BY CONNOR.BAHR @iowastatedaily.com

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. By now, most of you know who he is. Kavanaugh was rst accused of sexual misconduct in late 2018 when Christine Ford testied against him before a judiciary committee, but he was eventually sworn into the Supreme Court when her accusations fell apart. Almost exactly a year later, €e New York Times released an article accusing Kavanaugh of more sexual misconduct. €e only problem with this new accusation is that almost all of the “evidence” the Times claims to have can not be corroborated. €e article apparently got its information from a book that was written by two Times reporters. €e book claims that a former classmate of Kavanaugh’s, Max Stier, went to the FBI when Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing was in progress to report another incident. However, Max Stier reportedly will not talk about the incident or the accusation. €e only way the authors of the book know about this accusation is through Stier’s friends’ accounts of what happened. On top of this, other witnesses have come forward and claimed to have been at the same party and say it never happened. As soon as the article ran, many candidates at the forefront of the Democratic Party called for Kavanaugh’s impeachment, such as Beto O’ Rourke, Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren. Julian Castro even called for an investigation into the Department of Justice and Kamala Harris called his election process a sham. All of the uncorroborated evidence may look bad for the Times, but when it came out it was just an opinion piece that wasn’t supported too well. €e real scandal of this story is what came next. COURTESY OF WIKIMEDIA COMMONS Soon after the article broke, it was revealed Columnist Connor Bahr argues that a recent New York Times’ article released misinformation regarding a new sexual misconduct accusation that the Times had left out crucial information made against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Bahr thinks the Times should be punished for this. — that the victim said she never remembered had been in the article, it would have been I believe this event says a lot about the CNN and USA Today have written scathing it happening. €is information was supposedly worthless. These authors cared more about Times. I can not say for certain whether this articles about the blunder. part of the book but for some reason was left plugging a book and smearing Kavanaugh malpractice was done simply to gain easy €is blunder should not be allowed to go out of the article published by the Times. than they did about reporting truthfully. €ere advertising for the book or if it was another unpunished. What kind of world are we living This is blatant propagation of is no way that throughout the number of attempt to bring down Kavanaugh, but either in if we can’t expect news outlets to present misinformation. It is clear to me that people who needed to read the article before one is a misuse of the platform the Times a full, factual view on the story or to provide the authors of the article left out crucial release, there wasn’t a single one who noticed provides for their writers, and the world has evidence for accusations of sexual misconduct information because if that information the missing piece. noticed. Even other left-leaning outlets like against a Supreme Court justice?

Wednesday, September 25, 2019 Iowa State Daily VOICES 07 Forging new futures First generation students share their college experiences BY VICTORIA.REYNA-RODRIGUEZ @iowastatedaily.com

According to Iowa State’s latest statistics, nearly one-fourth of the incoming freshman class of fall 2018 were first generation students. But what is it like to be one of these students on Iowa State’s campus? Freshman in geology Branden Bettes was not even expected to go to college by his parents. “My mom didn’t go to college, she didn’t even go to high school, technically,” Bettes said. “But my dad tried a few classes in college and said, ‘No, this isn’t for me.’” With no examples or expectations set ahead of him, Bettes moved 4,000 miles away from his hometown in Alaska and set o‡ to Iowa State on his journey as the ‰ rst in his family to attend college. Bette’s journey to college was not an easy one, especially because his parents had no experience with college that could bene‰ t him. “I had to find ways to make being here cheaper, and my mom didn’t know how to help me because she didn’t go to college,” Bettes said. After managing the application process himself, a variety of clubs and organizations at Iowa State helped Bettes become more integrated on campus. “‹ ey had a lot of di‡ erent things that I could go to to make new friends and make a family here,” Bettes said. “I know Salt Company isn’t a part of Iowa State, but they helped a lot too. ‹ e crew that I got stuck with, they’re amazing and they’re honestly like brothers to me at this point.” While Bettes is grateful for all the help he has received along the way at Iowa State, he says there is more the university itself could do to bene‰ t ‰ rst generation students. SARAH ESTES/ IOWA STATE DAILY “I think they’re tackling it decently, but Despite the statistics being stacked against low income students and students whose parents didn’t attend or complete college, many Iowa State students continue to forge their college paths their own way. there are a few areas that they could improve in,” Bettes said. “‹ ere’s certain programs great for freshman students that just need STEM major program,” Contreras said. to be more advertised.” “After I was o‡ ered that opportunity it was Bettes found comfort and help in making de‰ nitely an expectation to make it through connections on campus, which is the same the program until high school graduation advice he gives to other ‰ rst generation students. and to make it to Iowa State University.” “One thing I think that is extraordinarily Although Contreras had the tough for ‰ rst generation students is that encouragement to go to college as a first your parents don’t know how to help, so it generation student, it did not make the task makes it two times more di‘ cult,” Bettes any easier for her. said. “So, I think it’s more important for ‰ rst “My main struggle was my mom not being generation students to make connections able to understand where I am coming from and friends.” when I struggled my ‰ rst couple of years,” First generation student and senior in Contreras said. “I wanted to use the excuse sociology Tiffany Contreras also found that she doesn’t know what it is like being companionship though making connections a ‰ rst generation college student at a four on campus. year institution, but then that just led to “I was very luckily involved with many comparing me with other people and peers programs as a ‰ rst-year student […] I became who did better than me and also had the a Multicultural Vision Program scholar and same demographic experience.” I was involved with the Academic Program Even though Contreras struggled, she had of Excellence,” Contreras said. “With these her outlets on campus. experiences, I got to know many other “I was able to navigate my first couple students who are similar and di‡ erent from of years because of the mentors and me and I had the opportunity to build relationships that I built and navigating a PIERCE COOPER / IOWA STATE DAILY COURTESY OF TIFFANY CONTRERAS mentorship with faculty and sta‡ from these better experience for myself throughout the First generation student and freshman in First generation student and senior in sociology geology, Branden Bettes.
