In fact, it’s exciting, maybe a tadstressful, and even nerve-wracking. Hereis what two new UNK students have to sayabout their first experience on campus.Kleinberg to speakFive Things To Do WhenSept. 8 on his book,You’re A FreshmanHolocaust experienceRACHEL SLOWIKAntelope Staffpurpose because there are similaritieswith Kleinberg’s story college students canidentify with.“While Milton’s story and pastcircumstances are far more severe thanmost people can comprehend, there areseveral similarities that college studentscan relate to. College can be a very stressfuland difficult time for many,” Carstensensaid. “Students undergo so much change insuch a short time. Perseverance, dedicationand hard work are values that all successfulstudents must possess.”“This event will be special, and I don’tknow how many more times we’ll be ableto do this. Most stories of the Holocaustare focused on what happened in Europe atthat time. The experiences on the Russianhalf are few and far between. Also, Milton’slife after the war is quite remarkable. He isPat FraryFreshmanUndecidedAuburna very likable person,” Carstensen said.Senior lecturer Jake Jacobsen hasbeen impressed with Kleinberg sincethey first met through Carstensen, whokept in touch after completing Jacobsen’sUNK Advanced Communications class.He encouraged Jacobsen to read thebook, and Jacobsen became determinedto bring Kleinberg to UNK.Jacobsen said, “What I met was aman with a purpose—a man who waslike anybody’s grandfather except whenhe opens his mouth and tells you abouthis life When you meet him he is justlike your grandfather.”Kleinberg is very special, Jacobsensaid. He has seen the worst, yet throughall of that he didn’t let all it affect hisKLEINBERG, PAGE 7New to campus, Frary decided to goto UNK because of its central location, andso far so good. “Pretty good, I had a classcanceled so that was cool.”Worries? He said he doesn’t enjoypublic speaking, so he’s not quite surehow his speech class is going to go thissemester. However, if there is one thing heis sure about, it’s college football. He’s a bigHusker fan, and we can appreciate that.Photos by Jessica MadronStudying international studies, Hazamacame to UNK because there are a lot ofclasses that count toward her majorComing from a large city, Hazama flewto Nebraska on Sunday, Aug. 23 just intime for classes on Monday.

I knowfirst hand. First thereis the whole sayinggoodbye to mom and dad on Move-InDay. Then there is the first day of classes,and it feels weird going to three classeseach day, instead of the eight classes youhad in high school. Then finally you’resaying goodbye to the best friends youmade in the past nine months. You learn alot about yourself in the first nine monthsof college. You find things you wish youdid or things you wish you didn’t do.When I look back on my freshman year,I realize there are many things I’m so gladI did and many things I wish I did. I havecompiled those things into a list, so hereis some advice for all those who are newto college.1. Go to class. It’s simple, all you haveto do is sit, listen and participate. You canask your friends for notes, but you reallydon’t get the experience you would havegotten if you had gone to class yourself.2. Meet as many people as you can.Meeting people is essentially one of thebest parts of college. The friends youmake in college can last a lifetime. So, sayhi to all those familiar faces!3. Don’t spend your money on thingsyou don’t need. Do you really need thatnew shirt from Old Navy? Probably not.Save that 20 for the textbook you didn’tget at the beginning of the year.4. Go to philanthropy events. Whetheror not you’re in a Greek organization orsome other student group, participating ina philanthropy event is highly beneficial.In the end, working together for a cause is5 THINGS, PAGE 7

opinionComing to AmericaKATEE DALYJMC 406, Spring 2015The bells at UNK are chiming,everyone is rushing to their next class. Textbooks are being carried, and the buildingsare standing tall. However, one thing standsout to Juanita Guadalupe Alonso: thefreshness of the land. Everyone takes forgranted the things they have, but Juanitathanks God every day to be here, workingfor what she wants her life to be like.Juanita was born in Mexico, andcoming here was a challenge for herfamily. She recalls Mexico with dustyair, dry land and rain being rare. Juanitasays, “Sometimes I remember hearing thedrums of the Indian reservation, and doingrain dances with my siblings. We did thisjust to add hope of maybe a little rain. Plusthe dance was fun for me and my siblings.It was a relief to have fun once and while.”Making a living was hard especiallywith the environment the way it was.Juanita recalls living in her grandparents'shed not knowing if things would ever getbetter.She woke up every morning, milkedgoats and did whatever needed to be doneto help support the family. Her dad wasgone a lot to come to America and earnmoney for her family. Sometimes he wouldbe gone for months at a time sendingmoney back as soon as he got paid.“Mexico wasn’t all bad, I knew I hadPhoto by StaffJuanita Alonso was born in Mexico andmoved to America when she was nineyears-old. After becoming involved inhigh school and applying for scholarships,Alonso earned the opportunity to better herfuture even more.family and friends there.” In fact Juanitarecalls one girl in particular who was prettymuch a sister to her, and her name wasLupita. “I don’t know if I ever knew her fullname, because we both went by the samenickname. She and I used to do everything'I was only nine at the time, but I knew thingswere about to change for my whole family.'together, from working to playing, it didn’tmatter, we always found a way to have fun,but when we left for America I didn’t evenget to say goodbye.”Juanita recalls being awakened in themiddle of the night and walking across theRio Grande bridge, with a book bag andpaperwork in hand. “I was only nine atthe time, but I knew things were about tochange for my whole family.”“Growing up we lived mostly inNebraska, but we started out in Texas. Mydad worked there for a man, and he loanedus a van so that my dad could get fromwork to home.”She remembers living in a small threeroom trailer house with two other families.Each of these families got one room. “Myfamily consisted of: my father, my mother,my little sister, my older brother and mytwin brother all in a tiny bedroom. Wedidn’t have much, but it was already a stepup from living in Mexico. We were finallyable to make a living and have our ownplace.”The hardest part of coming here forher was learning how to speak English.“When we moved to Nebraska we movedto Fairbury, and I was a seventh-grader. Iwas a lot better at speaking English, butsome things were still not grammaticallycorrect. I remember one boy making funof me and the whole class laughing. It feelslike yesterday, that we were in this scienceclass, and I said ‘How much’ instead of‘How many’; the boy then said, ‘SpeakEnglish!’ After that I swore I would try tonever screw up on my grammar again, andI worked really hard and eventually, I didget better.”Juanita says her family moved arounda lot, until they finally settled in the smalltown of Diller, Nebraska her sophomoreyear. “I wasn’t sure how well this schoolwould work out for me, but I ended uploving it. I made some lifelong friendsthere.For the first time my life was prettynormal. I joined clubs and went out forsports. Then graduation rolled around,and I didn’t think I was going to be ableto go into anything. I figured I wouldjust start working right out of highschool like the rest of my family, until myguidance counselor got me to apply fora scholarship known as Susan ThomsonBuffet Foundation Scholarship. I didn’treally think I had a chance of getting it, butwhen I did everything was looking up forme. Not only was I living my life here inAmerica, but I also now had a chance at aneven better future. A future no one couldhave dreamed of, and it was within mygrasp now.”Some people didn’t believe she couldmake it, but this only made Juanita workharder. “I worked at a local job duringmy senior year of high school, and afterannouncing I was leaving, most of myALONSO, PAGE 7the antelope 2015 fall staffEditor in ChiefDesign EditorAlison BuchliAssistant EditorNews EditorMichaela McConnellCopy EditorLaurie VenteicherAd ManagerRachel SlowikNews StaffKeyli AldanaKate Bakerby Austin GabehartAbigail CarrollKirsty DunbarKeisha FoulkJessica MadronRu MengJessica NicholsMaria PickeringYracema RivasRachel SlowikPhoto StaffDavid MuellerNathaniel AbegglenAsst.

Ratherthan handing it to undoubtedly one ofthe best running backs in the league,Marshawn Lynch, they opted to pursuethe air.New England’s Malcolm Butlerintercepted the pass on the goal lineto seal the victory and left the heartsof Seattle’s fans broken. With such anincredible finish to last season’s SuperBowl, it only makes this season thatmuch more valuable to follow.After the 2015 NFL draft, expertscame together to rank all 32 teams in theleague based on a number of differentfactors.At the No. 5 seed sits theIndianapolis Colts. Since quarterbackAndrew Luck was drafted byIndianapolis as the first pick in 2012,the Colts have been rejuvenated. Luckhas given the franchise a reason to behopeful again since the departure ofveteran quarterback, Peyton Manning.Also, the Colts managed to acquire widereceiver, Andre Johnson – who happensto be a top-tier receiver in the NFL. Asfar as defense is concerned, the Coltsfinished 11th overall in the category– allowing 23.1 points per game lastyear. It’s safe to say that Indianapolis isa serious threat.The Denver Broncos captured thefourth slot in the NFL power rankings.Any team that Peyton Manning playsfor will always be a legitimate superbowl contender. Although Manningis aging, he still remains one of thebest quarterbacks in the league –throwing a total 4,727 yards, including39 touchdowns in 2014. Otheroffensive threats include wide receiversDemaryius Thomas and EmmanuelSanders, who combined for over 200catches and just over 3,000 yards inthe antelope2014. On the opposite side of the ball, theBroncos have a stout defense – finishingthird overall in the regular season.Next, the Green Bay Packers capturedthe third position for 2015. Behind the armof quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the Packersaveraged 273 passing yards per game, and357 total yards in the 2014 season – placingthem in the top five for each category.The Packers’ secondary was also knownfor causing issues for their opponents’quarterbacks – securing 18 interceptionslast season. Although Green Bay’s primaryreceiver Jordy Nelson will miss the entireseason due to a knee injury, don’t doubtRodgers’ and Green Bay’s capabilities.The Super Bowl XLIX championNew England Patriots were chosen forthe second spot. The Bill Belichick andTom Brady combination has been deadlyover the last 11 years in the league –winning three out of five championships.Statistically as a team, the Patriots don’tnecessarily put up impressive numbers, butthey know how to win games. With targetslike Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman– Brady has reliable receivers to get the ballto. Although Brady will miss four gamesdue to the “deflate gate” controversy fromlast year’s super bowl, don’t sleep on thePatriots. New England has proven its worthfor some time now, and may have a shot atrepeating championships for the secondtime in its franchise.And last but not least, the SeattleSeahawks are given the best chance towin Super Bowl 50. The Seahawks havea plethora of threats on both sides of theball – making them an easy No. 1 selection.Quarterback Russell Wilson can put it onthe ground and attack in the air. Wilsoncompleted 63.1 percent of his passes andthrew 20 touchdowns in 2014. Runningback Marshawn Lynch rushed for over1,300 yards, while averaging 4.7 yards perattempt. Finally, Seattle’s defense is a forceto be reckoned with. The defense finishedfirst in for the least amount of yards pergame with 267. All in all, Seattle has avery good position to make a run for thechampionship.by Austin Gabehart & David Mueller

Idebated if I should even go back to college.I knew my mom couldn’t speak Englishvery well, and she didn’t have a job. Mydad was her support, and with him out ofthe picture I felt like I should take on moreresponsibility at home. However in the endI knew I had to do what was right for me,and my mom still had my brothers, and mysister to help her out.”She continued her education at CCC inHastings for almost two years, and debatedabout whether or not she wanted to go intoRadio Broadcasting. She decided to finishat CCC with her generals and transfer toUNK in the Spring of 2014. When shelooked into what UNK had to offer, sheknew immediately she wanted to be aninterpreter for the Spanish language. Sheknew how hard it had been for her to learnand wanted to help others with what shestruggled with. “I just feel like if I can makeanything easier for people going throughwhat I went through, I want to do that forthem.” Margaret Spencer met Juanita thisyear, “I never would have known Juan wentthrough any of this, had she not told me.She always seems so positive and definitelyworks hard at everything she does. She isan inspiration to us all.” Juanita is finishingup her last year here, and plans to graduatein Fall 2015. “With everything my familyhas went through, I know I will be proudwhen I wear that cap and gown.
