THE BROWN AND WHITE Lehigh University’s Student Newspaper Founded in 1894 SPORTS Women’s golf wins Patriot League Page 16 ONLINE Take our online poll: Did you go to SunDaze? If not, why? Students express registration concerns Page 7 LIFESTYLE Vol. 124 No. 23 Tuesday, April 23, 2013 ‘All the Lehigh News First’ B&W photo by RAE RICCARDI Sugar Ray entertained the student crowd as the headliner at SunDaze Saturday by playing their popular 90s hits as well as covering recent chart toppers, such as Macklemore’s “Thrift Shop.” Sugar Ray puts students in a SunDaze By EMILY LAN University Productions hosted its annual springtime concert, SunDaze, on Saturday, where members of the Lehigh community gathered at Sayre Field to listen to Sol and Sugar Ray. “SunDaze is a great way to provide a relaxing afternoon in the spring for students before the last week of classes,” said Nevin Sackson, ’14, music director of UP. “I like that before the last week of class and cracking down for finals, we were able to take some time out to relax,” said Katelyn Toledo, ’16. Samantha Karpman, ’13, another music director of UP, explained that the concert’s name alludes to having fun in the sun. She also said that this year, the name SunDaze was misleading to students who thought that the concert would be held on a Sunday. In a pre-concert survey, students were invited to vote to determine who would perform at SunDaze. Sackson claimed that there was a lot of student input in poll this year. The survey revealed that the majority vote was for a popular 90s band, Third Eye Blind. Based on these results, a similar 90s band, Sugar Ray, was chosen as the headliner. “We thought that Sugar Ray fit the nostalgic vibe that students were looking for,” Sackson said. “They’re very chill and fit the SunDaze [theme].” Many students agreed with the UP Speaker cites ways for Iran-US tensions to be relieved By CRISTIANO LIMA Emad Kiyaei, executive director of the American Iranian Council, spoke to Lehigh students and faculty Thursday about the pivotal yet tumultuous relationship between the United States and Iran. “I’ll be frank with you[…]it’s been 34 years of failed policies,” said Kiyaei, talking about the American foreign relations approaches towards Iran since the Iranian Revolution of 1979. The lecture, titled “Resolving the Iranian Nuclear File,” began with an overview of the two countries’ recent political history. During the lecture, the Princeton University researcher delved beyond the nuclear issue into the underlying reasons for tension between the two world powers. “Ironically, the country that has been the most worried [about Iran’s nuclear activity] laid the foundation for Iran’s nuclear program,” he said of the U.S. As Kiyaei explained, the relationship between the two countries was a relatively positive one up until the regime change brought on by the Iranian Revolution. Before this geopolitical shift, the U.S. willingly provided Iran with the highly enriched uranium (HEU) necessary to run the Tehran Research Reactor, which was established in 1967 with the help of the Atoms for Peace program. “Overnight, two things happened,” LTA celebrates founder’s day, sorority history By ERIN EAST The Lehigh chapter of Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority hosted events throughout the week to celebrate their founder’s day. Founded 38 years ago by 17 founding mothers at New Jersey’s Kean University, LTA was the first Latina sorority started on the values of unity, love and respect. The founding mothers wanted to make their own voice for minorities so they could be successful in higher education. Since then, throughout the years, many chapters have been installed across the country. Currently there are 108 undergraduate chapters in 20 different states. Five years ago, LTA was established at Lehigh as part of the Delta Upsilon chapter. From April 15 to April 21, LTA celebrated their establishment by holding events during the week. “This week is dedicated to paying homage to those very same five sisters who paved the way at Lehigh for many other culturally-based chapters,” said Dalisbeth Galvez, ’14, the president of LTA at Lehigh. “All sisters in the chapter, including alumni, helped create founder’s week and we’ve been looking forward to honoring our founders for their commitment to this chapter, LTA and their unconditional love for the sisters,” said Brenda Martinez, ’15, another LTA member. To kick off the week’s events, LTA held a meeting last Monday to plan their all night scavenger hunt to raise money for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital that will be held in mid-October next year. This meeting was open to all organizations and students who were interested in getting involved with the event. Their involvement can range from being on the planning committee to being a co-sponsor or forming a team, Galvez said. LTA kept The Goosey Gander open late Thursday in order to raise money to help the organization host the St. Jude’s fundraiser, and some other signature events, like “Walk A Mile in Her Shoes.” LTA hosted its final “Ladies of Tomorrow” mentorship program of the semester Friday, and the group celebrated its five years at Lehigh with a banquet Sunday. “Friday’s event was dedicated to our last mentorship program day of the semester, where we had all of the mentors, mentees, some of our alumni and volunteers all together,” Galvez said. “The week [closed] out with our five year “Lambdaversary” Celebration Reception, in which our chapter’s founding Sisters will be recognized in front of our friends, supporters and closest members of the Lehigh community.” No one event was better than the other, but Martinez said she had been looking forward to Friday’s event the most. “I love all the events, but I most looked forward to Friday when we meet up with our mentees from our Ladies of Tomorrow Mentorship Program to end See LTA Page 3 See SUNDAZE Page 4 See KIYAEI Page 5
