Tickets for the Oct. 4 event go on sale at 9 a.m. Monday. Students can see Hart for $25, and the public can attend for $65. Tickets can be purchased on Ticketmaster and the ISU Athletics ticket office. Students can use their student ID num- ber to grab one of the 4,000 available general admission student tickets. Winston Stalvey, senior in marketing and fi- nance and national events director at Student Union Board, explained how Hart’s act is different. “We have great connections and relationships with Emily Blobaum/Iowa State Daily a bunch of different Beardshear Hall, the Campanile and the Marston water tower provide a backdrop for Wednesday’s sunset. Thousands of new students would storm Iowa agencies,” Stalvey State’s campus the following day for the beginning of Destination Iowa State activities. said. “One of them Kevin Hart came up and said that they were talking about different ideas for Kevin Hart.” SUB emphasizes the importance of utilizing relationships with agencies. Years of forming connections with professionals BEFORE THE STORM has allowed SUB to bring in large acts based on the cost to host and ability to sell tickets. “We expect [sales] to go well,” said George Micalone, director of Student Ac- tivities. “There are only 4,000 student tickets available, which is substantial since you can’t buy a Kevin Hart ticket for less than $80 anyway, so to have any at $25 is unheard of.” Based on the capacity, SUB and the agency communicates on what the gross revenue potential is. Using that number, the two correlate on a student ticket amount. The general admission price has evolved to $65, while the student amount has stayed consistent. “Traditionally, artists have price points Charlie Coffey/Iowa State Daily that they need to look at and offer,” Mi- The ISU Police Department allows students to take photos calone said. “In this case, because of the inside the back of a police car to send to the student’s parents nature of his act he knows he sells tickets. during Destination Iowa State on Thursday.

Most planning cannot be done until funding is secured. “There’s value in us having secured funding for long term, so we can work [in] advance on getting better deals,” Micalone said. Both Micalone and Stalvey stressed how inclusive SUB is and its influential role on campus. “We love people coming in and vol- unteering,” Stalvey said. “It’s a great time, especially for some of these national event shows to see what goes on in the back- ground of these major concerts.” Last year, SUB put on more than 350 events for more than 55,000 participants and expects many more acts in the future. “I work at KURE and there are several [bands] that chart on the college radio lists that never come here,” said Ayla Hendrick- son, sophomore in architecture. “It would be great if we could get the people who chart there to come here.” For students like David Daft, junior in elementary education, the cost of tickets is a concern when deciding whether to attend. “[The pricing] is pretty reasonable,” Madison Kuhfus/Iowa State Daily Charlie Coffey/Iowa State Daily Daft said. “I’m kind of a cheap person and A new pledge runs to greet the members of her sorority on A student extinguishes a controlled fire at a Destination Iowa State booth Thursday.

The H5N2 strain of avian influenza GOLDEN currently has not been found to transfer to humans in any way, Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey said Monday during a conference call. He said the two Io- wa farms that have confirmed cases of the highly pathogenic ver- TWIRL sion of the avian flu could present problems for a variety of people. “There is other finan- Northey cial impact here as well,” Ag secretary he said. “Each [egg] lay- er will eat around one bushel per year of corn, so once these birds are euthanized, they won’t be us- ing corn for a while.” Northey also referenced veterinari- ans, soybean producers, and the poultry farmers with the infected population. The infected population includes 27,000 turkeys in Buena Vista Coun- ty and 3.8 million egg-laying hens in Osceola County. Northey said no other farms are cur- rently under investigation and samples tested from farmers in those areas have all been negative. “We believe this is not going from SEE FLU, 8 2016 IOWA CAUCUSES Budget still a 2016 issue By REBECCA MORIN [email protected] Even with the three I’s — ISIS, Iran, and immigration — at the forefront of discussions for 2016 contenders, they aren’t ignoring one of America’s largest Iowa Golden Girl Whittney Seckar-Anderson practices one of her routines in the Field House on Tuesday.

  • Chapter of Excellence Nomination 2016-2017
    Chapter of Excellence Nomination 2016-2017 Iowa State University Material Advantage Chapter Elena Ewaldz ISU Material Advantage President Chapter Overview The Iowa State University Material Advantage Chapter (ISU MA) had yet another excellent year in many aspects. Career Development was chosen as the main focus for the year and that was well achieved. Seven professionals spoke at general meetings; workshops were held to advance career fair skills. Social events were held with professionals in order to facilitate networking opportunities. A main focus was put on attending conferences and allowing as many students as possible to attend, twelve attended MS&T and five attended CVD. Outreach also remained important to ISU MA, and the chapter’s Outreach Chairs worked extra hard to grow and strengthen the outreach program, through which many Iowa students, of all ages, were introduced to materials science and engineering. This year, ISU MA hosted or participated in 30 outreach events, many of them for students ranging in the k-12 age group. This increased from last year by nine events! Through the efforts of the Fundraising Chairs, we were able to increase funds by selling more pizza each week. With the work of the Fundraising Chairs and generous funding from Iowa State’s Engineering Student Council, and the Department of Material Science and Engineering, 12 students were able to attend the Material Science and Technology 2016 conference, and 5 students were able to attend Congressional Visit Day in Washington D.C. at little cost to them. This was an amazing opportunity for our students, and one we were proud to be able to provide.
