The University is setting new sustainability goals in Allen Fieldhouse for future years. The Center for Sustainability has implemented recycling and compost bins in the building and has seen a reduction in trash sent to landfills.
WASTE FROM PAGE
At the end of the game, there's a Bowl Pick where a community group is hired pick up all the trash.
"It's a fundraising opportunity for them," Nelson said. "They spend like four to five hours cleaning Allen Fieldhouse after a game."
"I try my best to sort correctly. We only have so many resources and waste only adds up."
SOPHIE WANG Sophomore from Manhattan
"That's kind of across the board in all athletics across the campus. People come there to do what they want to do and buy drinks and eat food." Nelson said.
"We're moving to a single stream system across campus, which athletics will be a part of as well," Nelson siad. "So that [waste] will go to a material recovery facility, then they'll sort it by machine there."
At this point, Nelson says they aren't looking at actual waste reduction yet.
Nelson said there are plans in the works to make sorting waste easier.
The one thing that is
being done is producing only the amount of food that is necessary to reduce leftovers.
"You don't want to make two tons of hot dogs if you're only going to sell one ton." Nelson said.
Nelson said another main goal of the Center for Sustainability is to educate fans about recycling and composting correctly.
"I try my best to sort correctly," Wang said. "We only have so many resources and waste only adds up. With the specific venue of sporting events, the amount of people that attend concentrates individual pockets of waste into one large amount. If all the trash was properly sorted, it would spare a lot of trash from landfills."
For now, Nelson said one focus is making sure the waste is being sorted properly and sent to the right locations.
"We're not looking at producing less things," Nelson said. "We're putting those things into where they should go, like recycling or compost."
"We basically have our infrastructure in place," Nelson said. "So really now it's refining our educational outreach to fans."
Sophie Wang, a sophomore from Manhattan, said she looks for the recycling and compost bins at games.
"It's really an outreach to the larger community," Nelson said. "People can go there and see us recycling and composting and want to do it themselves."
Nelson said now that KU Athletics has hopped on board, the process is a lot smoother.
"It's just getting those fans to put it in the right bin," Nelson said. "So half the battle is already won."
"It has been good to see them taking ownership of it and being a stakeholder in it." Nelson said.
One such option they're looking at is a small display showing what goes into each bin, Nelson said.
Nelson said that what has been accomplished so far is something to be proud of.
He said that the big picture goal is to educate people beyond the fieldhouse.
"Being in the Midwest, we're really proud of our program and what we do," Nelson said. "I think it's top notch, so not only do we win basketball championships in the Big 12, we also have some of the best recycling."

combat this and to reduce the false alarms going off on campus.
ALARM FROM PAGE 1
"Never take it as just being a drill, take it as being an actual fire."
JAMES ANGUIANO KU police department captain
KU Police Department Captain James Anguiano said the KU Public Safety Office treats every fire alarm the same.
"There's public education and awareness training each fall for dorm residents , and KU penalizes students caught initiating malicious false alarms." King said.
they're not 'false alarms' because the system is doing what it's supposed to," Anguiano said. "Whether it's
"Practice safe cooking — do not leave [food] unattended while tired or impaired. Be aware of detector locations to bathrooms and showers or when using aerosol products, and do not use e-cigarettes in confined areas or areas without good ventilation," King said.
from steam or burnt foods, they are doing their job, and they are real alarms coming into the department."
"Never take it as just being a drill, take it as being an actual fire." Anguiano said.
Anguiano said in the case a fire alarm is activated, students should remain calm and leave the building without returning until the building staff gives the allclear.
King said students can help immensely to reduce the risk of fires on campus.

women based on the color of their skin.
Lastly, Green talked about the tolerance of rape culture. She gave many examples of universities that try to demean the issue, politicians
who blame the victims and news broadcasters who trivialize the issue.
Green ended her presentation by telling the audience eight ways we can help solve the problem.

1. Replace rape culture with consent culture.
2. Teach respect from a young age.
3. Make sure everyone knows what consent is. Consent is: a verbal yes, enthusiastic agreement, no pressure, sober (Too drunk to drive = too drunk to consent) and ongoing.
4. Challenge gender stereotypes.
5. If something seems wrong in a situation, say something. If you're afraid to say something because you don't know the context of the situation, remember: It's always better to be wrong.
6. Use your voice.Social media is a great platform to use to speak up.
7. Campuses must provide ongoing consent education and treat rape cases more seriously.
8. The legal system needs to enact survivor-friendly legal protocol, follow through on investigations and rape kits and enact "yes means yes" consent policy.

Lane works to help school systems design, implement and evaluate what's called a Comprehensive, Integrated, Three-tiered Models of Prevention (CI3T). The CI3T is a plan that evaluates students as they progress through school to identify and support academic,
behavior and social skills.
Lane taught in public schools for five years before getting her doctorate. She didn't always want to be a teacher, however.
"I had a grandfather who was a professor of medicine, so when I was little, we would talk about what I wanted to do career-wise," Lane said.
She had planned on becoming a marriage and family counselor until her friend. a principal of a
middle school, asked her to cover a special needs class for two days.
"Those two days turned into two weeks," Lane said. "When I was about to leave, a 14-year-old girl named Timika said to me, 'I think you're doing a great job and I think you should stay and be our teacher.' So I did."
Today, when she's not conducting research or teaching, Lane enjoys spending time with her husband, Craig; her 15-year-
