The University began its annual participation in an international recycling competition Monday, but this year the stakes are higher than they’ve ever been. RecycleMania, a contest that began more than 10 years ago in Ohio, challenges over 600 univer- sities across the nation and even a few in Canada to reduce campus- wide waste and increase their percentage of recycling over an eight Nick week period.

OLIVIA SMITH COLUMNIST

The human mind has an inherent urge to obtain new information. We are constantly seeking new things to learn and read about. Is this why we are so dependent on technology and social networks? It is so easy for college students to get wrapped up in the latest technology trend and to be hooked on what is happening on social sites like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Our generation will sit on Twitter, constantly refreshing their feeds for hours.

Now, members of the administration have the petition in front of them and can contem- plate the whirlwind of bad publicity they unleashed SUPERBOWL OUTCOME with their relentless, anti-education policies. That was what got me to wondering about BGSU. The administration could not possibly have anticipated this response to the decimation of the faculty. The BGSU-Faculty Association’s initial response to the firing upset the administration’s bargaining team so much that they cancelled the next week’s negotiating session, in my opinion, in panic or in pique. Thousands of formerly friendly eyes are now looking at BGSU with disapproval. No one goes out of their way to earn that kind of attention. So the administration couldn’t really have anticipated it. But why not? Did they really expect to kill 11 percent of faculty positions (those faculty among the hardest working at BGSU) without drawing attention? They may have actually expected the attention to be positive. It’s the kind of thing a big corporation does sometimes: slash payrolls to gain a reputation for profitability. And that seems to be the current administration’s notion about BGSU: that it’s a corporation with a football team. Last week’s Mazey@BG message was full of happy talk about the cheerleading team and the Florida Falcon getaway, but void of information about a financial crisis so severe that 11 percent of the faculty positions have to be cut. I’m delighted that BGSU’s cheerleading team did so well, that the hockey team is having such a good season and I even hope people have a good time at the Florida Falcon getaway. But none of those things are central to BGSU’s real mission: education. While the administration seeks to balance its budget on the back of the faculty and the faculty alone, the ranks of administrators at this university are not being cut and millions of dollars of SHELBY SWEINHAGAN | THE BG NEWS student fees are dumped every year into programs that are perpetually in the red. If BGSU is a corporation, in short, it’s not one with a really well-thought-out business plan. Leading a healthy life is an individual choice There are many problems with the corporate model of the University, not least of which is this: it’s an authoritarian model.

BRYCE WILLIAMSON FORWARD Falcons set to play Spartans in home-and-home series 4-2

By Ryan Satkowiak BGSenior Reporter The BG hockey team takes on Michigan State in a home- 3-2 and-home series this weekend in what could be the teams’ final meeting as conference opponents. Central Collegiate Hockey Association foes since 1981, Michigan State is moving to the Big Ten next season and BG is heading to the Western Collegiate Hockey Association. 1-2 There is, however, a chance the teams will meet in the CCHA playoffs this season. Friday’s game will be played at the BGSU Ice Arena, while Saturday’s game is in East Lansing. The rivalry between the two teams runs back 1-2 to Michigan State’s earliest days in the CCHA, when the team was coached by Ron Mason.
