Gov. Gretchen Whitmer appointed alumnus Isaiah Oliver to the Central Michigan University Board of Trustees today. Oliver will serve as the eighth trustee on the board. His term will expire after Dec. 31, 2024. Oliver is the President and CEO of the Community Foundation of Greater Flint. He will be the most recent CMU graduate, having finished his undergraduate degree in Graphic Design in 2007. “It’s an honor for me to serve as a Central Michigan University Trustee. I hope to continue the university’s legacy of growth and excellence for current students and future generations,” Oliver said in a press release. “In this economy, education is the most useful tool our state has for increasing statewide economic competitiveness and citizen level economic self-sufficiency.” The newest trustee helped form the Flint Promise college scholarship program,
which started on March 1, 2018. He received the Alumni Service Recognition Award from CMU in 2018. “In order to ensure Michigan’s success for generations to come, we must provide opportunities for every student in every ISAIAH OLIVER community to succeed in the classroom,” Whitmer said in a press release. “I’m confident that Isaiah shares that dedication for opportunity and will make a strong addition to the Central Michigan University Board of Trustees.” Oliver graduated from Flint Northwestern High School in 1999.

Museum to present ‘groovy’ artistry, turmoil from 1960s By Isaac Ritchey Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com
Mount Pleasant and Central Michigan University community members will be able to participate in traveling back to the 1960s at the Museum of Cultural and Natural History’s “Kozmic Clash: Peace, love and outer space.” The exhibit will open at 4 p.m. April 22. The Museum of Cultural and Natural History is free and open 8 a.m.- 5 p.m. weekdays and 1 p.m.- 5 p.m. Saturday. Collections manager Ron Bloomfield said the museum is focused primarily on 1969 events like Woodstock and Apollo 11, but will allow visitors to experience pivotal developments in innovation, artistry and turmoil from the ‘60s and early 70s. “They’re my little way of getting people ready and generating some ‘vibes,’” Avery said. Bloomfield and a group of students are using Woodstock to present the counter culture, or hippie movement. Bloomfield described the event as the “crowning achievement” of the ‘60s.
Isaac Ritchey | Staff Reporter Collections manager Ron Bloomfield, left, and a group of students look over a print being used for “Kozmic Clash: Peace, love and outer space” April 16 at Rowe Hall.
“(Woodstock) was perhaps the biggest thing to happen in the ‘60s,” Bloomfield said. “The reason, according to sources, is that 500,000
people attended the concert, and they only had two deaths and a handful of arrests.” As visitors enter Rowe from its
southern or eastern entrances, they will relive the three-day event. Bloomfield said the museum is attempting to recreate the stage and crowd at Woodstock. A kiosk will allow visitors to learn about the performers and their significance to the event. Along the walls, Bloomfield’s team will show psychedelic and mainstream album covers, photographs and quotations from the time. Bloomfield said his team has faced challenges being in a hallway and had to get creative with how they managed the space. To solve certain challenges, the museum is also incorporating digital technologies instead of static displays. Jay Martin, director of the Museum of Cultural and Natural History, said the museum is experimenting with transparent cones which will project sound straight down. This allows the implementation of music. Bloomfield contrasts the peace and love of the hippie movement with the turmoil of the Vietnam War. To help visitors understand the artistry within the counter culture, the museum recently acquired a vin-
tage Volkswagen van called “Honey Bear.” One side of the van is painted with chalkboard paint, which Martin said will allow visitors to creatively express themselves while providing a clean slate for the next group. Research Collections Educator Caity Burnell’s hands-on exhibit, “Feel the Music,” is also focused on the artistry of the ‘60s. The exhibit is being created within a room off of the main hallway. A violin, drum set and trumpet will give visitors the opportunity to play an instrument from three of the four major instrument families — strings, percussion and brass. An online music lab will implement a number of apps and games for visitors to play, teaching them about music through trial and error. A hands-on cart will also contain more instruments for individuals. Children with sensory issues can wear headphones provided by the museum. “The ‘Feel the Music’ exhibit is supposed to be a fun, hands-on experience for children and families to make music and be inspired to go learn to play an instrument,” Burnell said.

Ombudsperson Peters helps students advocate for themselves By Teresa Homsi Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com
Savannah Glasscock | Staff Photographer Ombudsperson Erica Peters speaks at a Student Government Association meeting in the Bovee University Center Auditorium.
Ombudsperson Erica Peters has learned firsthand what it means to be a “third party.” The Ombuds office is an informational resource available on Central Michigan University’s campus that provides impartial, confidential and informal support for student-related matters. Peters works as a neutral third-party to provide an outside perspective when students need clarification on academic-related issues. “It’s tricky for me personally because I have to try really hard to be that neutral presence and give objective feedback,” Peters said. “People come in with really terrible stories and high emotions, and it’s very difficult to not feel that with them. I can emphasize and hear you out, but that’s where I have to draw the line.” Peters has worked as an ombudsperson since the CMU Student Ombuds Office became a full-time office in December 2016. The office is located in Ronan 220. The office is available to online, global and main campus students. It deals in mediation and encouraging equitable treatment across the university community. “Part of me wishes I could operate in a capacity where I could advocate for or on behalf of (visitors), but that would defeat the
LO VE WHERE YOU
LIVE
purpose of the office,” Peters said. Before becoming the official and only ombudsperson at CMU, Peters was an online program administrator. She dealt with similar concerns then, but became a member of the International Ombudsperson Association and helped further establish the office. Peters said that people mainly want to discuss faculty and staff behavior, service quality and university procedures on academic integrity, grade grievances and course drop and withdrawal policy. “I’ll hear anyone out, and I’ll leave it up to the visitor as to how far they want to pursue it,” Peters said. “If you want to come in and tell me how frustrated you are in this class and that’s all you want to do, that’s fine, that’s all we have to do. But if you want someone to know how frustrated you are and prevent other students from having the same experience, I let the student drive as much as possible.” Although Ombuds can notify students of their rights within the university, the office does not provide legal advice and cannot change administrative decisions. Peters spoke during the March 25 Student Government Association meeting to promote the Ombuds office. SGA Senator and Indiana junior Yvon Bergner knew of the office prior to the meeting, but he was happy to see the office being promoted at the meeting. “Some students know about Ombuds, and
if they do, it’s likely because they’ve used it,” Bergner said. “Ombuds is an informational resource - they’re a middle man and they stick with that. They’re a neutral ground. When you go to somebody, you look for (neutrality) so you can get information about what’s what and how to approach a situation.” Although Bergner has not personally used the office, he recommends Ombuds as a resource and wants more students to be aware of the office. Assistant Director of Student Success Jeff Hyames has seen the Ombuds transition from a part-time to full-time position as the backup ombudsperson. He attributes that change to there being a higher need and more student use of the office. “Your job is to be a student, not try to figure out policy and procedures,” Hyames said. “(The office) can help you navigate – not tell you what to do, not make it all better, not give you the answer you’re looking for – but give you clarification and additional resources you may not know about.” The majority of Peters’ visitors are maincampus students, but she hopes to expand the office to staff and faculty beyond policy consultation. In this past academic year, Peters has worked with 200 people. That number varies, but Peters hopes to make the office more known and available to the university community.

Students tap into success with fermentation sciences certificate By Benjamin Ackley Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com
Many people know Central Michigan University for nationally-recognized programs in business, STEM and teacher education. But what they may not know is that CMU’s fermentation science program is crafting some of the top college beers in the country, winning competitions annually since the program’s conception four years ago. The fermentation science certificate program was introduced to CMU’s campus in the beginning of the 2015-16 academic year. The fourcourse program is accessible to degree and non-degree seeking students. While the first semester of classes focuses on the scientific aspects of brewing, the second is more hands-on, as the students begin brewing their very own craft beers to be put on tap at Hunter’s Ale House in Mount Pleasant.
This semester also focuses on the business side of brewing, including equipment choices and the day-to-day operations of breweries. The 16-credit program was spearheaded by Cordell Demattei, Director of Fermentation Science and science and engineering faculty. Demattei developed the program in an attempt to get qualified CMU students into the brewing industry, and the program seems to have been successful in doing so. CMU brewers have interned and worked in six states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Missouri and Florida. Fermentation science student and Clinton Township senior Tom Ostrom thinks the class provides a unique realworld application of knowledge for those in science programs. “At least for me, a chemistry major, I have something on display, something to show for what I have done at Central Michigan,” Ostrom said. “Sure,
Megan Doyle | Staff Photographer Clinton Township senior Tom Ostrom mixes as he brews an irish stout at Hunter’s Ale House April 12.
I’ve got research posters and whatnot, but this is definitely a different sense of rewarding.” Demattei teaches all four of the classes for the certificate, and the class sizes are generally small. This year that holds especially true, as the course was only made up of three students. Fermentation science student and Hillsdale senior Marshal Hammel thinks that
the small class size has helped him bond with his peers. “It’s been more of a family experience than anything,” Hammel said. “I think having three (students) in the class is actually great because there’s enough to do where you’re actually always busy, but there’s not so much that it’s overwhelming.” The final requirement for the certificate is a 200-hour intern-
ship in a brewery or brewingrelated industry, usually completed over the summer. Hunter’s Ale House head brewer Steve Swaney was a part of the first fermentation science cohort, and he sees the internship as an adaptable and unique opportunity. “Internships can be pretty fun,” Swaney said. “At Petoskey Brewing, I stayed on Walloon Lake. I brewed during the day, and then I came back to the lake where I met my dog and we went swimming, and then I laid in a chair and drank a beer.” From the start of the fermentation science program, there were concerns about how such a course would be perceived at a school that had a reputation of being party-centric. Demattei is aware of the potential stigma, but he doesn’t see the course as playing into CMU’s party school perception. “We really do focus on the science,” Demattei said. “You do get to taste the beers you make, but it’s in no way a drinking pro-

gram. We’re really promoting the science and the understanding of how beer is made.” Every year the program submits beers to the U.S. Open College Beer Championship, a nationwide competition of college fermentation programs. Beers are judged based on how well they represent the style category and subcategory they are entered into. There has not been a year in which CMU has gone without a medal. Most notably, in 2016 CMU was recognized as the second best brewing school in North America. Fermentation science student and CMU Plant Engineering and Planning Project Engineer Bob Francisco hopes to continue CMU’s streak of recognized brewing excellence. “We don’t want to just be entered,” Francisco said. “We’d like to win.” Applications are still being accepted for the fall semester, but students must be at least 21 and must have completed BIO 101 and CHM 120 or 132.

Mount Pleasant’s preferred plans presented at final event By Isaac Ritchey Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com
As of last Thursday, the once orderly commission chamber at City Hall had been transformed into an untidy studio space for McKenna Associates’ team of designers, consultants and analysts. McKenna Associates provides development, planning and building services to cities while engaging with the community. The business is working to complete “Mount Pleasant 2050,” which will chart the city’s development for the next 30 years. President John Jackson said, under state law, Mount Pleasant is obligated to create a master plan and is using the opportunity to line up its future goals with more immediate changes and ordinances. After four days of gathering input from city staff and Mount Pleasant residents, MA presented its findings at a final charrette event April 11 at City
Hall. Jackson said the team will continue refining proposed plans into winter 2019 and hopes the city will be able to adopt plans in spring 2020. In addition to planning events, Mount Pleasant used online surveys to gather responses. The team received 89 responses from four surveys, which will remain open until April 21. Director of Urban Design and Mobility Paul Lippens, who played a leadership role in the project, said some of the more overwhelming responses received from residents and staff was the need for mobility and sustainable land use.
IMPROVEMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Improving transportation would include the implementation of four roundabouts on North Mission Street at Bellows Street, East Preston Road, West Broomfield Road and East Bluegrass Road. The purpose of the roundabouts is to decrease traffic on one of
Mount Pleasant to have a good block system and would like to see it improved upon. A more prominent improvement of land use would be adding fivestory, high-density mixed-use buildings to the downtown area. At the event, Lippens reiterated from Monday’s event the high regard residents have for Mount Pleasant’s park system, calling it the city’s “backbone.”
Isaac Ritchey | Staff Reporter Mount Pleasant city employees and residents express their ideas for the future at a “Mount PLeasANt 2050” event April 8 at City Hall.
Mount Pleasant’s more active roads, Lippens said. Changes to road systems and intersections will increase safety and aesthetics, and gateway features will be made more effective and visually appealing, Lippens said. The city is also looking into re-routing M-20, diverting traffic around downtown. Jackson said the change is supported
by Mount Pleasant business owners and will require participation and partnerships from multiple districts and agencies to complete.
IMPROVEMENT OF LAND USE CMU’s campus and industrial zones will remain similar in the proposed land use map. Jackson said he found
IMPROVEMENTS TO DOWNTOWN AREA The team’s attention was also on downtown to promote it as the “vital center of the city,” Lippens said. The team focused on three areas — South Mission Street, Town Center and Pickard Road. Improvements to South Mission Street would include: • Roundabouts utilized for traffic management • Landscape medians for visual enhancement and traffic control • Retrofitted street grids • Re-use of underutilized
parking lots for infill development • New parking located behind buildings • Making Mission Street the residential “front door” to Central Michigan University Improvements to the Town Center would include: • Expanded public gathering space at Main Street and Broadway Street • Flexible event programming availability • New direct connections to Island Park via trails and pedestrian bridge • Integrated river view apartments Improvements to Pickard would include: • Aesthetics and safety with landscaping and reconfigured 3-lane cross-section • Gateway feature to downtown at Main Street • The ability to recognize the effectiveness of existing industrial district • Support of entrepreneurship and creation of job opportunities

Y
ou believe your professor treats you unfairly. You work incredibly hard on a project and get knocked down on points for things you believe you did correctly. Your professor won’t hear you out. What do you do? Lucky for Central Michigan University students, we have a resource on campus to help you be heard. The Student Ombuds Office an informational resource available to online, global and main campus members of CMU to provide impartial and confidential support for student-related matters. Ombuds by definition is “someone who helps people to informally resolve conflict by facilitating communication to help all parties reach mutually satisfactory solutions.” The office at CMU serves as a third-party, neutral resource for students’ concerns to be heard. Many students don’t know about the Ombuds Office. It’s something we should be using, but most probably don’t even know it’s been a full-time resource since December 2016. Ombudsperson Erica Peters said that visitors mainly want to discuss faculty and staff behavior, service quality and university procedures on academic integrity, grade grievances and course drop and withdrawal policy. The office helps students understand policies and procedures. It’s a helping hand when things get tricky with our classes or track to graduation. Ombuds is here to help and students should understand what it’s there for. The office is located in Ronan Hall, Room 220. Ombuds is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. To make an appointment students need to call or email the office at (989) 774-3010, or ombuds@cmich.edu. More information can be found on its website at cmich.edu/ess/ombuds.

CENTRAL MICHIGAN LIFE I CM
hen Barnes Hall is torn down this summer, north campus won’t just be losing a building. It will be losing the history of a close-knit community. At its Dec. 6 meeting, the Central Michigan University Board of Trustees approved the first year of a three-year residence life plan which includes the decommissioning and demolition of Barnes Hall. The demolition will begin in Summer 2019, and will leave behind a long legacy on campus. Barnes is the oldest residence hall on campus, dating back to 1939, according to CMU’s website. Barnes’ north wing was in the Keeler Union building, known today as Powers Hall, said Bryan Whitledge, CMU’s archivist for University Digital Records. Barnes was the first all-male dorm on campus and housed about 90 residents. Keeler dorms had a different role to play on campus. With the outbreak of World War II, people needed to be trained quickly for war. The Navy V-12 training program was training young people on CMU’s campus to do just that, Whitledge said. The building housed 125 cadets from 1942 until July 1944, which was 35 people over capacity, according to CMU’s website. “They were doing 12-week courses and trying to ready people for overseas service,” Whitledge said.
After the war ended, enrollment on campus increased. As did the need for residence halls. In 1951, a new wing was added to Keeler and renamed Charles C. Barnes Hall in 1952, Whitledge said. By the 1970s, Barnes became the first dormitory on campus that allowed coed floors. Changes were also being made in the front lobby of Barnes and Powers Hall during this period. Before the music building existed, the Department of Music occupied Powers. The department outgrew its space in the early 1970s and moved into the space currently occupied by the Barnes lobby. Part of the lobby was given back to Barnes in 1977, but the rest wasn’t given back until about two decades later when the Music Building was built, said Luanne Goffnett, current residence hall director of Barnes and Robinson.
Barnes Hall sits at its location on South Washington Street April 16, 2019.
RESIDENT LIF E
To the people who live in Barnes, it’s more than just a building. Many residents of Barnes view their community as an inclusive and welcoming environment. Plymouth junior Casey Boyle lived in Barnes for two years and said Robinson and Barnes are the most welcoming places on cam-
pus. Boyle is currently the Hall Council president for Robinson and Barnes. “I think (Barnes) is a very welcoming community as a whole,” Boyle said. “A lot of people know you by name. (In the) Towers where there’s so many people, you don’t really get that.” This is the environment Goffnett has been building for almost three decades, since she became Barnes RHD in 1991.
It was her first job o she said it’s been he home since. She valu nity Barnes has buil where people of all r sexual orientations “The entire time I and even before I go always kind of a catc nett said. “We end u

mix of people and I’ve really embraced and enjoyed that. “It’s a place where you can be you.” While she loves the community, one of her most cherished Barnes memories is much more personal. In November 1999, she unexpectedly discovered she was having triplets. Goffnett’s supervisors at the time responded with a mass of support and
accommodations. In Summer 2000, her supervisor had the RHD apartment in Barnes remodeled by combining her room and the student dorm above hers. The room was smaller than other RHD suites on campus — she could have easily moved to a different residence hall. Instead, they chose to honor the work Goffnett was doing. “(It made me feel) incredibly valued and as a result, I’ve been a loyal employee,” Goffnett said. “I felt honored for my passions, skills and talents that I have.” Goffnett raised her children in Barnes Hall. Her kids got to meet kids from all around the world and bring a positive experience to the residents who stayed at Barnes. It was never just a job for her. “It’s not a job — it’s a lifestyle choice for me,” Goffnett said. Goffnett learned in Summer 2018 that the Office of Residence Life will not be using Barnes as a residence hall beginning May 2019. Eventually, she found out that the building itself wouldn’t be around for much longer. Barrie Wilkes, the vice president of Finance and Administrative Services, said the decision was made because Barnes is outdated, not handicap accessible and still has community bathrooms. Short-term renovations to Barnes would exceed $3 million and would cost more if it were to be made handicap accessible, he said. It is cheaper to demolish than to refurbish. The land will be reverted back to being a green space, Wilkes said. Both Boyle and Goffnett felt grief after the vote was made. Boyne City freshman Ethan Hewitt said the decision might be a good step forward for campus, but he will still miss Barnes when it’s gone. “It will be a little bittersweet,” Hewitt said. “Part of me is happy that I get to be one of the last people to live in this building. At the same time, it will be a little disappointing if I ever want to bring my kids back and the building I lived in isn’t here anymore.” Ubly freshman Nicholas Swanson opposed the decision because the history it leaves behind. Rockford junior Rachel Border’s
mother lived in Barnes when she went to CMU. When her mom came to visit on Labor Day, Border said the first thing she wanted to do was visit Barnes. Because of the history, Border thinks they should use the hall for something else instead of tearing it down. The feeling in Robinson and Barnes is not of despair, but rather celebration. Goffnett said they are celebrating what they call the “final season” of the community. They will be holding community events and selling t-shirts to celebrate the legacy of Barnes. “We want to celebrate the positive impact that Barnes had on students,” Goffnett said. “What can we do to enjoy this final season, remember it positively, and continue the positives of the community.”

Alumni will have one last chance to say goodbye to their old residence hall during the Barnes Final Season Open House before it’s torn down. The open house will take place from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on April 20 in the Barnes Hall lobby. Goffnett said former residents will be able to walk through Barnes, reminisce about old times, eat food and be with former roommates. Residents will be provided with Sharpie markers to write their favorite memories on the dorm’s walls, and Clarke Historical Library will set up a mini exhibit in the lobby about Barnes Hall. The event is free to attend. Organized by the Barnes and Robinson Hall Council, Goffnett said the event is meant to celebrate the legacy of Barnes Hall. Barnes will be open to alumni throughout the week between April 20 and April 27 if they are not able to make the Saturday event. They just need to get an alumni button at Barnes’ front desk.

weet goodbye
summer. Take a look back into the hall’s history and what people said they will miss most.
CHARLES BARNES Charles C. Barnes was born in Leslie, Michigan on Aug. 7, 1886. He graduated from the local school system and spent four years teaching before going to the Ferris Institute in Big Rapids. In 1911, he received a finance and commerce degree. That same year, on June 10, he married Josephine Clickner. In 1912, he became a faculty member of Ferris and served as principal of the school of business until 1920, when he resigned to become the assistant treasurer of a Detroit life insurance company. Unenthused with this decision, he soon reentered the education field when the president of Central, E. C. Warriner, offered him a post as head of the Commerce Department in September of 1920. The following year, Barnes was promoted to Registrar and made the first Dean of Men. In addition to these responsibilities, the new dean sought to continue his own education as well. He earned an AB degree from Central in 1925 and an AM degree from the University of Michigan in 1932. A heart condition forced him to retire in July of 1946 and caused his death on Dec. 17, 1950. He was survived by his wife Josephine and their two daughters. – University Communications

THROWBACK THURSDAY NOV. 19, 1979
A
s the semester was nearing a close, the Barnes Hall Council had a less traditional way of letting students take out their stress. During the afternoon of Nov. 19, 1979, the council rented a $20 car from a junk yard, and allowed kids to donate money to swing hits onto to the car with sledge hammers. If students paid 25 cents, they got a single swing onto the 1968 Ford Galaxie. If they donated 50 cents, they got three swings. The hammer broke during the day. Organizers had to switch to giving students bricks. Students broke the windshield, headlights and overturned the car. The photo above was taken by Central Michigan Life in the Barnes Hall parking lot, where the destruction took place. In total, the council raised $29 dollars.

Central Michigan lands Iowa State graduate transfer Udeogu By Evan Petzold Assistant Sports Editor sports@cm-life.com

When Oge Udeogu opened up his recruitment as a graduate transfer on Feb. 7, he planned to make a decision near the end of April. But his choice came much earlier than expected after the Iowa State offensive lineman took an official visit at Central Michigan. He even canceled trips to Colorado State and FIU due to what coach Jim McElwain was able to offer. Udeogu officially transferred to the Chippewas on April 15, and he’s penciled in to aid the offensive line room which has struggled in recent seasons. “It was a great coaching staff and the best fit for me,” Udeogu said. “It was a great situation all around for me.” The Nigerian offensive lineman, who has an interesting college football journey, checked out CMU from April 8-9. He was highly impressed – leading to a quick commit and sign process. Udeogu is immediately eligible, which ensures the sixth-year player
will get on the field in the 2019 season. He will arrive to the program this summer to get acclimated with teammates and coaches, workout and learn the playbook in preparation for the Aug. 29 season opener against Albany. “I’m excited to finally be on the field,” Udeogu said. “I love football and haven’t been able to really be out there since junior college. This season will be special to me because I’ll finally be able to go out there after all the adversity I’ve had to face so far in my career.” As a 6-foot-3, 310-pound lineman, Udeogu spent the 2014 and 2015 seasons at City College of San Francisco (JUCO). He was a two-year starter, winning back-to-back conference and Northern California championships. The team finished 12-1 in Udeogu’s final campaign, and the prospect went on to pick Iowa State over Houston, Louisville, Illinois and others. His journey was far from over. When Udeogu arrived in Ames to play for the Cyclones under coach Matt Campbell, he took a redshirt for his first year to adapt to the Division I lifestyle. In 2017, Udeogu was slated as a starter at guard – until he sustained an injury to his triceps at the
elbow just two weeks before the season opener against Northern Iowa. Udeogu was unable to get on the field in 2017, and he missed the 2018 season due to never being able to fully recover. Without any on-field playing time in college other than a two-year stint at an NJCAA school, he opened up his recruitment as a graduate transfer. Now, Udeogu is headed to Mount Pleasant to play in the Mid-American Conference. “It’s awesome that they are giving me another shot at this. A lot of people don’t get this opportunity,” he added. “Coach Mac has been to the NFL and everywhere, so it’s something else when these coaches acknowledge my skill and want to bring me in.” While McElwain, defensive end Sean Adesanya and quarterback Quinten Dormady all played pivotal roles in landing the prized piece of the puzzle, it was offensive line coach Mike Cummings that made the choice a no-brainer for Udeogu. “(Cummings) is a great coach and great person. It’s all about the people and he is someone I’m excited to get coached up by and play for.”

Academically dismissed defensive end Irving-Bey to return this fall By Evan Petzold Assistant Sports Editor sports@cm-life.com
Deron Irving-Bey is making a comeback. Following the fall semester, the defensive end was academically dismissed from Central Michigan’s football team. But now, a return to the Chippewas for the 2019 season is expected. Irving-Bey, a Flint native, is currently at a community college. Jim McElwain, gearing up for his first year as CMU’s coach, shed light on Irving-Bey’s situation, blaming both the university and the defensive lineman. “He was instructed on some things and got some misinformation,” McElwain said. “Obviously it’s two sides to everything. He could’ve done some things better and he could’ve been informed better.” When reached for comment, Irving-Bey didn’t discuss the specifics. However, he told Central Michigan Life, “(I’m going to) see ya’ll in the fall.” It’s also unclear what the academically related misinformation was about. Even though his current school is unknown, one institution near CMU is Mid Michigan Community College, while another close to his hometown is Mott Community College. “We’ve gotten the miscommunication put away, and right now, he’s doing everything he can to get back on this football team,” McElwain said. Irving-Bey transferred to CMU from the University of Michigan on Aug. 21, 2018. He was forced to sit out all of

last season due to NCAA transfer rules. Three days before former coach John Bonamego was fired, he gave high praise to Irving-Bey’s ability to be a game-changer in Mount Pleasant. “Deron Irving-Bey is going to add to the depth of the defensive line,” Bonamego said. “He’s a highly touted player.” The expected return of Irving-Bey should help fill the void of All-Mid-American Conference First Team defensive end Mike Danna, who departed for Michigan as a graduate transfer in February. Danna registered 65 tackles, 14 tackles for a loss, 8.5 sacks, one pass defended, three fumble recoveries, two forced fumbles and two defensive touchdowns. Irving-Bey was a four-star prospect in the 2017 class, graduating from Southwestern Academy High School in Flint. He held the No. 249 overall ranking in the country, was No. 9 at strong-side defensive end and No. 4 in Michigan, per the 247Sports Composite. As a high school senior, Irving-Bey registered 79 tackles, 17 tackles for a loss, 15 sacks, four forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries. His scholarship offers included multiple Power Five programs – Michigan, Michigan State, Maryland, Iowa State, Pittsburgh, Purdue and Tennessee. While McElwain waits for Irving-Bey to clear up the situation at community college, he can only hope for the best. “He’s a great person and a good kid,” McElwain said. “Comes from, obviously, some tough circumstances, so we just embrace him and hope to get him back.”

NEWS AND NOTES FROM AROUND CAMPUS
BASEBALL SITS IN THIRD PLACE OF MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE STANDINGS Central Michigan baseball defeated NAIA Cornerstone University, 10-5, on April 16 in Grand Rapids. The Chippewas improved to 26-10 overall and still remain at 8-4 in Mid-American Conference play. Cornerstone slips to 14-21 on the campaign while keeping a 7-7 record in the Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference. Freshman pitcher Garret Navarra started on the mound for CMU. Navarra did not have his best stuff and was taken after 2 1/3 innings allowing five runs on eight hits. Cornerstone led CMU 5-1 after two innings. After six innings, CMU still trailed 5-2. Then, something clicked for the Chippewas. After a two-run seventh inning CMU was only behind by one run. The Chippewas added another run to tie the game at 5-5 heading into the ninth inning. Once Navarra was pulled off the mound, CMU head coach Jordan Bischel used him as the designated hitter.
“(Navarra) has prepared and improved as a hitter all year and I felt he deserved an opportunity with some guys out today,” Bischel said. “He did a great job taking advantage of his opportunity and trusting his preparation.” Navarra delivered going 2-for-3 with two RBIs. Those two RBIs came on a ninth-inning double that gave CMU a 7-5 lead. The Chippewas scored five runs in the ninth to take a 10-5 lead, and Cornerstone was unable to score. “Cornerstone’s pitching did a great job of commanding the bottom of the strike zone most of the game,” Bischel said. “I was happy to see we continued to compete for all nine innings.” The Chippewas next contest is a threegame series at Toledo from April 19-21. -Andrew Loveland, Staff Reporter

Pimpleton shows playmaking ability, speed at spring practice By Evan Petzold Assistant Sports Editor Sports@cm-life.com
Kalil Pimpleton walked around Kelly/Shorts Stadium on the morning of April 13 with a grin that seemed unbreakable. He wore gray sweatpants and a hoodie with his No. 88 maroon jersey with gold trim pulled over the top. Backpack fastened up tightly to his back over his shoulders. Speaker clipped to the back playing music. It looked like the redshirt sophomore had a swagger and confidence in his step of a player who had been in Mount Pleasant for all of his years of college football. Going into his freshman season in 2017, it was the exact opposite for the Muskegon native. Pimpleton was a three-star recruit coming out of Muskegon High School. He was only offered by Eastern Michigan and Virginia Tech. He became a Hokie.
It was the first time Pimpleton had tried to play football away from home, much less 662 miles away. He planned on being a starter come the fall of 2017 in Blacksburg. Instead, he had just one carry for four yards in five games. Pimpleton decided to look into transferring. Of the eight schools he was allowed to contact, four of them were MidAmerican Conference institutions — Western Michigan, Northern Illinois, EMU and the Chippewas. Not even a year after heading to Virginia Tech, Pimpleton left for the place he now calls home — CMU. “It’s not about the size of the school,” Pimpleton said. “I experienced a lot of different things being away from home. The atmosphere at (Virginia) Tech was good, but (CMU) is better. There’s a lot more to explore.” After being forced to sit out the 2018 season due to the NCAA transfer rules, Pimpleton is finally in the position where can go through
spring and summer ball with all the intentions to play this upcoming fall. In the open spring practice, Pimpleton put the pads on for the first time in front of Chippewa fans and media. It was clear right away that the wide receiver had a different gear in the speed department. “I’ve always used speed to my advantage,” Pimpleton said. “Being little, I have to use my speed. I have to use my quickness to get away from those big guys. I just want to win.” The 5-foot-9, 160-pound wideout ran through drills and scrimmages with a noticeable difference in quickness and agility. He could make a button-hook route look effortless. He hid behind the line when in motion and before you knew it would be blazing toward the sideline. The open turf was a clear advantage. CMU’s newest Swiss Army knife of speed, agility and pass-catching ability was on full display. It was beyond noticeable.
Evan Petzold | Assistant Sports Editor Central Michigan receiver Kalil Pimpleton spends times with children at the Kids Clinic on April 13 at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.
“He’s an electric player but not only that, he’s an unbelievable teammate,” said head coach Jim McElwain. “He’s a guy that invests
in it and really does a great job. He’s the first guy in all of the time. “If you could have 110 of him, you’d have a great football team.”
