Photo by David Tyler Jones. t By Jennifer Toledo Arts & Entertainment Editor The Afromotive is a quick- ly rising ten-piece band out of Asheville North. Carolina. Their unique Afro-beat mu- sic is funky and energetic, danceable and deeply infused with traditional West African rhythms. The band is cur- rently enjoying the release of their debut album Scare Tac- tics, recorded and produced by WCU music school alumni Jacob Keller. The Afromotive actively tours live around the US and our surrounding area of Western North Carolina. The Afromotive played on the UC lawn on September 12, opening up for Yo Mommas Big Fat Booty Band, attract- ing a large crowd and deliver- ing a sonic dose of pure funky can drum rhythms and with; afrobeat. The Afromotive is a per-. fect example of what happens when those who have perfect- ed an art decide to investigate cestry.

The Catamounts had possession of the ball with less than two minutes to go in the game, but were not able to score. Ben Shipps booted the ball 9-yards to split the uprights or the Flames. ; The lead was short lived hough as the Catamounts stuck before the end of the first quarter. Taking over near midfield at their own 46 yard line, Western moved 54-yards in five plays to take a 7-3 advantage after red-shirt freshman Quan Warley ran in from 15 yards out. Warley sprung by blocks on the left side, including one thrown by red-shirt sophomore Adam Hearns on the edge, to get the FOOTBALL GAME TO LIBERTY DROP CLOSE oto By: Justin Caude Score. Liberty closed the gap to a point with 0:33 left in the first half after a second field goal by Shipps provided for a 7-6 tally. The Flames had a chance to tilt the game in their favor earlier in the second quarter with a few minutes left, but WCU red-shirt fresh- man Chris Everett blocked their fieldgoal attempt. Following the break, Liberty made up for their missed scoring opportunity though after scoring on their. up 13-7 with 8:44 to go in the third quarter and they scored. later in the frame after capi-~ talizing on a Western fumble.

He is an in- tentional and conscientious consumerintentional in consuming only items of bare necessity and being conscien- tious of the effects consumer- ism has on the environment. According to the Environmental _ Protection Agency (EPA), sustainability is meeting the needs of the present without compromis- ing the ability of the future generations to meet their own needs. In the words of Bigelow, sus- tainability is making [our] footsteps on earth as light as possible, while continuing to walk. Fighting to re- duce the amount of waste Bigelow creates everyday is just one small aspect of living a sustainable lifestyle. When asked about the practicality of living sus- tainably, Bigelow said, Prac- tically, I try to adopt the ten- ants of reduce, reuse, recycle. Weve been taught that our whole lives, but most of us when we see those three Rs, or that triangle sym- bol, we think recycle and the problem is that theres three different parts to it, and they are listed in order of im- portance. this philosophy by re- cycling one-time use items after they have been re-used to the (continued on page 3) Bigelow fleshes out | STUDY ABROAD: ITS EASIER THAN YOU THINK . WCU | students . have several opportunities to learn overseas By Jordan Monroe Staff Writer Every se- mester about 30 students from Western Carolina University study abroad in places like Aus- tralia, Japan or Spain. Why? Studying abroad has a lot of benefitsmore than you might think. To me [studying abroad] is the ulti- mate synthetic college experi- ence, said John Schweikart, WCU study abroad advisor. Imagine: Youre a Eu- ropean History major and you have the opportunity to study in Wales, a thirty- minute plane ride from Paris and Rome and only a cou- ple hours drive away from London. Think of learning history in the very halls in which it took place. You can study art in Florence, walk where Shakespeare lived and died, or see original paint- ings in the Louvre. You can experience first-hand what you could only see in a text- book at home. Any major ca benefit from a semester of : international education. Study- ing abroad is also an excel- lent chance to surround yourself with a different culture. This goes beyond learning a new lan- guage. You will learn how to sur- vive in new and cultur- ally diverse situations, and you will walk away with a new level of in- dependence and personal fulfillment. For this reason, Honors students are some- times expected to keep a jour- nal of their overseas experi- ences to record the changes they find in themselves. While you are immers- ing yourself in culture you are doing something equally important: making interna- tional connections.
