Habits: Leaving the toilet seat up is from upbringing, not gender CI continuedfrom page 8 was in a cast for a year and a half, so I just lack the manual dexterity to have good penmanship." Dahle said she hates that guys seem to be able to just roll out of bed and go to class when girls spend a lot more time on their appearance. Baker said, in defense of his gender, that his prep time is just shorter. Zeller: "Guys don't care what they look like. One of the guys in my fraternity (Sigma Chi) takes longer to get ready than most girls do.' Another bad habit that bothers Dahle, she said, is boys not cleaning up after themselves. She said she sometimes will do her boyfriend's dishes when she goes over to his apartment because he usually doesn't. Baker said he has his untidy habits but said it depends more on upbringing than gender. As Zeller folded clean clothes in his room, he said, "I am a pretty neat and organized guy. This is about as messy as my room ever gets." Hartley said she doesn't like guys who can't admit when they are wrong, such as not asking for directions. Baker said he blames it on social requirements of the Fans: Students entertain with video games Di continuedfrompage 8 know we'll be here a while," Alvey said. Another popular pastime is reading a student-produced basketball newsletter called the Refraction. Started by Sonnenberg and Kraig Williams for the first game of this season, the Refraction gives basic stats of the opposing team with a tongue-in-cheek commentary of the circumstances of the game and the proposed outcome, Sonnenberg said. "The first time we made this, we went around to give them out and were like, 'Please, take this,'" Sonnenberg said. "By the fourth game, people were flagging us down, demanding it." There is also a section in the newsletter called "The Petri Dish," which examines some opposing team members more closely, giving readers an unofficial look at points of their personal lives. Written by Williams, the information in this section is gathered from multiple sources. In the edition for the Jan. 12 game against New Mexico, for example, it cited Paris Carter's earlier arrest for indecent exposure, which resulted in the chant "Keep Your Pants On" during the game. To collect the information for "The Petri Dish," Williams said he first looks at the official team Web site and reads all of the bios. If anything seems funny on the bios - odd hobbies or majors, etc. - he said he runs a Google search on that. He said he also looks at their MySpace pages. The Refraction is a satirical publication and may not be entirely factual, as is stated in the disclaimer at the bottom of each issue. Sonnenberg said he's had two people express their disapproval to him, but he said he and Williams are just trying to have fun. "You can't please everybody," Sonnenberg said. Sonnenberg said they try to get the finished newsletter online the night before the game. All issues can be found at www.usustats.com/refraction. Despite students sneaking into the Spectrum and camping out all day between its doors, they don't usually cause a lot of problems, saidjaredjorgensen, Spectrum facilities coordinator. "The majority of them don't cause any problems at all," Jorgensen said. "A couple of times we have to remind them to stay (in the doors)," he said. "It's a courtesy that they let them into the building." Vickie Fonnesbeck, an usher for the games, said she doesn't usually have much trouble with the early students either. "They're actually pretty nice kids," Fonnesbeck said. Ushers are in charge of making sure students stay between the doors until an hour before the game. The ushers were supposed to come at 5:30 p.m. on game nights but were recently asked to come earlier because some students were lined up in the Spectrum too early, Fonnesbeck said. The students are usually nice and listen to her, she said. However, when they are allowed to enter the building, it sexes. "That is what makes us guys is trying to figure things out and working through problems," Baker said. "We try not to show weakness because we'd rather handle it ourselves. If we don't, we never develop into men." Bosen said, "I'm never wrong so I have nothing to admit to, and even if I did, I wouldn't ask a girl for help." - renae. cowley@aggiemail. usu. edu Male: No talk about sensitivity [1 continuedfrompage 7 'That's the stupidest idea I've sustained eye contact, she said, ever heard,' when she's thinking which can be perceived as a can be a different story. relationally instead of informathreat or a challenge.
