I live and breathe school. We fight, but I always end up coming back. This thought struck me the other day as I debated whether or not to take off this coming Fall Semester. I've had this goal for a while now of working in Grand Teton National Park for a summer. They offer service industry positions and provide employees with room and board, as well as access to recreation opportunities for the summer season. I would be working in Signal Mountain Lodge on the banks of Jackson Lake, in the shadow of the Grand Tetons. I would be working full time, clocking in 4o hour weeks. On my days off, I'd go traipsing up mountains, floating down rivers and lurking around the employee volleyball 10 Ultra Bide 8 p.m. $7 Burt's Tiki Lounge Pusha T 6:30 p.m. 28 4 STS9 8 p.m. $25 The Depot (21+) Steven Stradley: Peripheries 12 p.m. Free Central Utah Arts Center 11:11 U Symphony 7:30 p.m. $6 - $10 Libby Gardner Hall $20 The Complex 29 Jazz Jam Session Ea Changing Sex/ Changing Sexuality 9 a.m. Free S.J.

However, "summer" in the lodge's eyes extends through mid-October. The U's Fall Semester starts on Aug. 26. This is a bit of a collision. My initial feeling was of panic. How could I possibly drop everything I've built my life around and spend six months working in a restaurant in the mountains near Moran, Wyoming? I would come back a semester behind, faced with the prospect of a job hunt. Despite all this, I extended my dates of availability and sub- mitted my application. I haven't officially been offered the job yet, but if I do, I'll have to make a quick decision. I think I'm starting to understand what the seniors must be feeling right now School is a structured safe place — a place where you can peek out of classroom windows and dream of an outside world without having to open it up and face the reality. Once it's no longer a part of your life, you have to figure out what all that time in a classroom has actually meant to you and whether those dreams have a tangible future. As important as a structured education is, I believe you can only do it for so long before you begin to burn out. For me, that burnout point is hitting right about now And when you're feeling burned out, it can be hard to focus the right amount of energy on school. You end up spending more time on the Internet searching for pictures of where you want to go than writing essays and reading textbooks. It is necessary to leave the familiar for a while and let yourself stretch to discover what your strengths are out there in the real world. It is important to have those experiences outside your comfort zone to turn to for guidance when you're questioning who you are. They are the moments that will define you and lead you through the toughest choices. So, when the time to make the decision comes, I will probably follow my dreams to Wyoming. Often the only way to know if you're making the right choice is to jump in and make it. frhinehart@chronicle.utah.edu Check out our newly designed website Follow us on Twitter: a sophomore in architecture, said he found exactly what he needed in Phi Delta Theta. He is looking for something special in the fraternity's new members as recruitment comes to an end. "As soon as we meet a kid, we get a vibe of whether he's the kind of guy we're looking for," he said. "We make sure we're the right fit for them and that they're right for the house. We're looking for guys that are not only good on paper, but have great personalities." Roberts said he considers everyone in his house his best friend, and he looks for that in recruitments as well. The Beta Theta Pi fraternity has a more specific set of principles they use to look for their new members, principles they said contradict with what the media often portrays fraternities to be. "Back in the '9os, fraternities were kinda going downhill," said member Ryan Snow, a junior in business Free The Urban I and Continued from page 1 8 p.m. El 8 p.m. $25 The Depot (2 1+) 24 Tribal Seeds, The Autumn Defense 8 p.m. $12-$24 Kilby Court Leave the safety net, find freedom Juchau, Audree Steed RECRUIT Silver Antlers STS9 SATURDAY BLOG: WALK FORREST WALK Devin Wakefield COPY EDITORS: Kaitlin Baxter, Emily Clarifications 23 11 a.m. Free Gallivan Center EDITOR IN CHIEF: Emily Andrews e.andrews@chronicle.utah.edu MANAGING EDITOR: Niki Harris n.harris@chronicle.utah.edu PRODUCTION MANAGER: Grey Leman g.leman@chronicle.utah.edu ASST.

"Beta decided to change that downward trajectory, and they decided to go back to the roots, kind of what the founders based it upon." Current Beta president Mitchell Cox, a junior in psychology, believes their values set them apart from other fraternities. "Beta Theta Phi is a fraternity that really grounds ourself in our five core values of mutual assistance, trust, responsible conduct, intellectual growth and integrity," he said. "Really, overall, we just strive to live those out in our daily lives and to hold our brothers accountable to those same things." The Betas look for what they call "men of principle" who exhibit their core values. They aim to let people know their standards by offering a $500 scholarship every year to incoming freshmen. The scholarship's recipient does not need to be interested in rushing to qualify. Those interested in fraternities have a variety of reasons why they are interested in joining. Ryan Wadge, a sophomore in mechanical engineering, is hoping to branch out socially with his potential membership of Beta Theta Phi. "I've always been really interested in greek life, and I love getting to know more people," Wadge said. "I've had lots of friends in Beta, and I know that it's a really solid frat." Parker Finlinson, a junior in marketing, is interested in Beta because of what the fraternity stands for. "My roommate rushed last semester and said a lot of good things about what a fraternity should be, and I'm really interested in that," he said. Johnson believes the frat stereotype should not keep anyone from trying it out, and encourages people to have an open mind. "Check out an event, talk to some of the guys, and if it's not for you, that's great. Give it a shot," Johnson said. "Who knows? It might be the best decision you'll ever make." ivy.smith@chronicle.utah.edu c Follow us on Twitter! Police Report Furry situation found in dorms Resident advisors discovered a chinchilla in a Sage Point 812 dorm hallway Wednesday, Jan. 15. The RAs caught the chinchilla and reported the incident to U Police. The chinchilla was taken door to door in the resident hall in an attempt to locate the owner. No one claimed the chinchilla, and it was turned over to Animal Control, said U. Police Sgt. Mike Richards. Dorm dispute leads to drug discovery A male dorm resident of Chapel Glen 804 allegedly slapped his roommate on the morning of Jan. 15. Tensions resulted when the suspect refused to turn his alarm off. U Police were called to the scene at 4:33 p.m. and discovered marijuana and paraphernalia in the room, Richards said. The owner confessed and was cited. TRAX suicide attempt halted A female was threatening suicide on the Stadium TRAX platform as witnessed by a UTA Police Officer. The incident occurred on Monday, Jan. 13 and U Police responded near 8 p.m. The female was sent home after being evaluated by hospital staff, Richards said. She was not a U student or faculty member. Fraudulent order on U account The director of Mega Lab Technology alerted U Police of an alleged fraud scheme that charged a U account. The company discovered the discrepancy on an invoice for a large shipment of medical supplies to be transported from Florida to New York. The order was not filled, and neither the U nor the seller suffered a financial loss, Richards said. U Police alerted all universities in the state to be on the lookout for future related scams. There are currently no leads.
