How is BHSU doing regarding Title IX? Are we "providing an environment not impaired by sex and gender based misconduct,
including sex discrimination and sexual harassment?" We want to know...you are invited and encouraged to share your
thoughts regarding this topic. A team of outside consultants will hold a discussion session on Tuesday, October 14th at

Geek Speak
Oct. 15 | 4pm | Jonas 110
Join us for Dr. Byron Hollowell's lecture, "Robin Hood Redux: How through Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), CEOs Rob
From the Poor and Pay the Rich." Based on Executive Compensation financial empirical techniques, this lecture will
explore the raw financial data on a modern Robin Hood tale: Executive Compensation. Every year Executive Compensation
is a hotly debated topic in the popular press, and this research data will show why both sides of the popular debate are
WRONG in their conclusions. The truth is obtained when we put ideology aside and "let the data speak.” This lecture is
guaranteed to frustrate, perturb, and disturb in its undermining of commonsense and Neo Classical Economic Theory. The
truth of the financial data just can't be made up‐‐ it is that fantastic and outlandish.

Curiosity Week
Nov. 7‐14
Curiosity Week is a week initiated by ISO where students are encouraged to open themselves to new opportunities and
challenge anything that limits them from going the extra mile. Curiosity Week will run from Nov 7 ‐ starting with
International Festival, and end on the Nov 14 with a Home Game. We believe that BHSU has a great potential, a pool of
amazing students, passionate leaders that will one day help shape the world we live in. So why not organizing a week of
Curiosity to encourage everyone to try new things, start saying “YES!” and equip them with the idea that “Anything is
possible”. All organizations & BH departments are welcome to program under the tagline of "Be curious ..." and help
promote curiosity among all students. Everyone interested in joining the mission do not hesitate contacting

Overcoming the Odds
I am doing a project which I have named "Overcoming the Odds" This project will include the pictures and stories of people
with invisible illnesses such as Depression, Bipolar disorder, Arthritis and others. There is the option of anonymity and
anyone who does not want their names or pictures taken just need to let me know and their stories will be anonymous.
The point of this project is to bring awareness of invisible illness to the community and hopefully bring understanding as
well. Please contact me via email or phone if you would be interested in participating.
