New K-State Men's Basketball Coach, Bruce Weber
At 3p.m. in the Legend's Room inside Bramlage Coliseum today, Bruce Weber, was introduced as the new men's basketball coach at Kansas State University. I was checking twitter on my phone around 10 a.m. when I saw Weber had been selected as the new coach. Then, I saw the press conference to introduce him was today. I had plans of attending a speech by National Geographic photographer, Joel Sartore, at the Beach Museum on campus at 2 p.m., but I knew I had to be at the press conference. After a quick 30-minutes listening to Mr. Sartore (which was very interesting and something I did not want to leave, but did reluctantly) and rode (yes, rode, as in bicycle) to Bramlage Coliseum. Below are six images from the event.

Trayvon Martin Rally - Wichita, KS
If you have listened to any sort of news within the last two weeks chances are you are familiar with the Trayvon Martin situation taking place in Florida currently. If you have not heard or would like more information, click here.
A rally was held at 21st and Hillside, near the Wichita State University campus, this afternoon and was embodied by hundreds of protesters. The protest was peaceful, yet strong and united. Passers-by honked in support and some stopped to join the demonstration.
Below are photos from the protest:

Oklahoma City
I just got back from a 24-hour visit to Oklahoma City. My last Spring Break for my academic career is currently taking place, and I thought Oklahoma City would be a fun destination. Kansas City was another option, but I have been there more than I have been to OKC so the choice was made based on that.
Finding the best local coffee shops is usually at the top of my list of things to do when traveling. OKC had several that I liked, and some that I didn't. Spending time at the Oklahoma City Memorial was also an experience (I visited OKC Memorial shortly after it opened after the bombing, but it is always something to see again).
Leaving my camera and lenses behind in favor of using my iPhone to document the trip was a decision I made because I thought it would be a refreshing, fun experience. And it was. Below are several photos straight out of my iPhone.

Fake Patty's Day 2012
I walked down to Aggieville to photograph some of today's Fake Patty's Day celebration. This is a fake holiday that, in a nutshell, is a time to consume copious amounts of alcohol. I would describe it as a very, very condensed Mardi Gras-like atmosphere. The actual St. Patrick's Day falls during Spring Break, when a lack of students are around campus, so an annual event was created to take place the week before. People (mostly college students) come from around the state (a lot of KU people) and from out of state. As someone who does not drink alcohol, I found most of the festival goers to be fairly pleasant (at least the ones I encountered). However, some people didn't make it out without an encounter with the local police force (see below). Check out a small selection of photos below and thanks for looking at my blog!

KSU vs. Oklahoma State - Men's Basketball
Oklahoma State came to Bramlage Coliseum yesterday to take on the Wildcats in the regular season finale. It was also senior day for two players, Jamar Samuels and Victor Ojeleye. As far as the game, it was close in the first half but K-State pulled away in the second half and won fairly easily, 77-58. Next up is the Big 12 Tournament in Kansas City this week, and then wait to see what happens on selection Sunday.

The ink quill on Jakki's right forearm is in memory of her tattoo artist that committed suicide. |
Jakki and Maria are in the same sorority so they requested we end the session with a photo of the two of them together. |
