Goal of $100 million set for capital campaign Chippewa Champions Alumni Center will be a project that benefits from the campaign

By Sara Kellner Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Central Michigan University leaders launched the second capital campaign in school history — with $83 million raised of its $100 million goal — on April 21 in the John G. Kulhavi Events Center.

More than 300 students, faculty, staff, donors and alumni attended, according to a University Communications press release.

Vice President for Advancement Bob Martin said the “Fire Up for Excellence” campaign has set several records, including this highest number of donors in university history.

The campaign chair is College of Business Ad-

ministration alumnus Michael O’Donnell, who was inducted into the CBA Hall of Fame in 2015.

“Every CMU Chippewa deserves the chance to realize their potential.” O’Donnell said in the release. “Now is our time to share, to give back, and to provide current and future students with the same opportunities we have had for a superior educational experience at CMU,” according to University Communications.

According to University Communications, a priority in the campaign is the Chippewa Champions Alumni Center. While the exact cost is unknown, head coach John Bonamego said on National Signing Day on Feb. 7 that the facility would be in the $30 million range. The building will be constructed on the north end of Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

The release stated other priorities for the campaign include funding recruitment, retention and professional development for faculty. Priorities also include supporting research, funding faculty endowments and updating learning laboratories.

“Our greatest asset is in our classrooms: our professors, researchers, innovators and leaders,” President George Ross said in the release. “Their teaching

and mentorship leaves a lasting impression on our students, helping to ensure their success.”

Martin said private support is critical, as just 17 percent of CMU’s budget comes from state funding. In 2002, state funding covered 32 percent of the budget.

Those in attendance included Board of Trustees Chair William Weideman, Assistant Vice President for University Recreation Stan Shingles and football alumni Antonio Brown and Cooper Rush.

Student representatives for the New Venture Competition, Threads Fashion Show and the CMU Society of Automotive Engineers Baja team were also invited.

It is not known when the campaign started or how long it has taken to raise the $83 million.

Athletic Director Michael Alford wrote in his monthly “Fire Up Chat” on the CMU athletics website that he believed the Chippewa Champions Alumni Center would “be directly linked to the ambitious scope of the project.” Martin also mentioned the launch event in passing at the April 19 board of trustees meeting.

Ross said at his State of the University Address in September that the capital campaign would launch in April.

Trustees approve increase in room, board rates for 2018-19 news@cm-life.com

Room and board rates will increase by 3.5 percent — or $340 — during the 2018-19 school year.

The Central Michigan University Board of Trustees approved the increase during its April 19 meeting.

CMU is currently ranked 12th out of the 14 public universities with residence halls in Michigan when it comes to yearly room and board rates.

The yearly rate is $9,736, said Barrie Wilkes, vice president for Finance and Administrative Services. The rate will be $10,076 after the increase, making CMU ninth in the state.

Wilkes cited the fact that

forward for housing — (the question of ) ‘What is our enrollment going to be?’’’

Graduate housing rates will see a 5 percent increase for the 2018-19 term.

CMU uses a significant amount of student labor in residence halls, particularly in Campus Dining, as a main reason for the increase.

The university has gone through three consecutive minimum wage increases in the past three years, necessitating more funds to pay student employees, Wilkes said.

Wilkes said the statewide decrease in yearly undergraduate enrollment also factors into the rate increase. “(The university) knows the number of graduating high school seniors continues to decline in Michigan and in the Midwest for the foreseeable future,” Wilkes said. “That’s one of the things that’s been making it challenging for us to decide a path

CAMPBELL HALL SHOOTING The university is in the process of deciding “what’s next” following the March 2 double homicide in Campbell Hall that claimed the lives of James Davis Sr. and Diva Davis, said Sherry Knight, associate vice president for University Communications.

gency management counseling work group.”

Among the ways CMU will improve its emergency management protocols is a push for the CMU community to make sure their Central Alert information is up to date, Knight said.

“Hopefully there’s never a next time, but if there is, (we’re looking at) how we give our on-campus folks — our faculty, staff and students — access to better information,” Knight said.

In a private session following the meeting, Knight said lockdown procedures during emergency situations will also be examined and developed following the shooting.

“Each building has a (lockdown) plan, and we’ll be looking at updating those and making sure it’s clear within those plans (what faculty can do),” Knight said. “There’s a lot of good conversation — a lot of groups (are) involved, (including) Environmental Health & Safety and the police department — everyone is involved in looking at what we do with (lockdown).”

President George Ross said this summer will see the completion of a two-year project to put locks on all classroom doors.

MENTAL HEALTH AND COUNSELING SERVICES Mount Pleasant counselor Tarami Sherlock spoke about her experiences with CMU’s Counseling Center, and how it can improve, during the public comment session near the end of the meeting.

Sherlock said about 50-60 percent of her current clientele are CMU students — students who are not able to get into the Counseling Center because of its long waitlist.

“I’m constantly receiving referrals from professors, faculty, counselors and residents, often in desperation, asking me to see their students,” Sherlock said.

Though she has a lot of respect for the staff at the Counseling Center, Sherlock said the center is understaffed and its employees are underpaid considering the amount of students on campus needing therapy services.

“The football team has more coaches for 100 players than the Counseling Center has therapists for more than 20,000 students,” Sherlock said. “The numbers speak for themselves, and unfortunately mental health is on the losing team at CMU.” Sherlock began crying as she recalled messages from patients telling her they feel

they would have died if they hadn’t reached out to her.

Though the board of trustees typically doesn’t respond to public comments, Trustee William Weideman said the university is undergoing a lengthy discussion, spearheaded by Steve Johnson, vice president for Enrollment and Student Services, about how mental health services on campus can be improved.

Ross said the university is looking for more effective ways to examine and deal with mental health.

“We have a challenge in Mount Pleasant that they don’t have in Grand Rapids and Detroit — the ability to go out and easily locate mental health care professionals (is harder) — we’re just such a small, contained community,” Ross said.

CMU breaks ground on $26 million Health Professions extension

By Samantha Shriber Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Plans for an expansion of the College of Health Professions Building moved forward with a special groundbreaking ceremony on April 19.

Central Michigan University leaders hosted a groundbreaking ceremony for the Center for Integrated Health Studies outside the Health Professions Building.

Construction on the site began in March and will soon become an academic facility for students pursuing health related degrees.

The center, which will provide additional lab and classroom space for the Herbert H. & Grace A. Dow College of Health Professions and the College of Medicine, is being built for $26 million.

The construction of the

center will be completed by September 2019. Classes will be offered within the structure in January 2020.

College of Health Professions Dean Thomas Masterson said construction of the college’s Center for Integrated Health Studies comes

from a request made 10 years ago.

In an annual meeting with Steve Lawrence, associate vice president of Facilities Management, and other deans, Masterson said the Health Professions building was lacking in space. “(Lawrence) looked at me

NEWS AND NOTES FROM AROUND CAMPUS

UNIVERSITY PLACES RESTRICTIONS ON APRIL 24 MEDIA LAW CLASS DEBATE Members of the Westboro Baptist Church will go head-to-head with the founder of the Satanic Temple of Detroit in a class discussion April 24 at Central Michigan University.

The discussion will be hosted by Timothy Boudreau, journalism department chair and instructor of JRN 404: Law of Mass Communication. The presentation is designed to demonstrate First Amendment issues and the freedom of speech.

“I think (Westboro Baptist and Satanic Temple) test the limits of the First Amendment on a regular basis,” Boudreau said. “And, by and large, their speech is protected. This is a way for students to see how far the First Amendment goes in terms of protecting speech. It’s a memorable way to bring our textbook concepts to life.”

While the debate is closed to only allow students of the media law class, the debate is also closed off to the media as well.

These restrictions came after Boudreau met with six university officials, including College

of Communication and Fine Arts Dean Janet Hethorn, who provided an emailed summary of restrictions to Boudreau on April 12, as follows: • The discussion will take place during the class’ normally scheduled time and date, from 2-3:15 p.m. April 24 in Moore Hall room 108.

• Only students enrolled in the JRN 404 will be allowed to enter the classroom.

CCFA Interim Associate Dean Andrew Spencer will check students in by their student ID to ensure no uninvited guests are allowed in.

• There will be no video or audio recordings during the discussion.

• No media will attend or be present at the classroom discussion.

• CMU police will have the final say regarding all the safety issues surrounding the classroom event.

like I was speaking some foreign language and laughed,” Masterson said. “He thought I was joking and I wasn’t.”

Construction is being aided by a $19.5 million grant issued by the state.

The building will feature a

256-person auditorium with rearranging seating, a new human physiology teaching lab and additional labs for physical therapy and physician assistant programs.

The building will also feature eight stateless patient exam rooms and two stimulation screens. The stateless patient exam rooms are doctor-patient interaction models, where students can practice medical protocol, behavior and procedure without actual patients.

Senior physician assistant student Fredrick Clifford said the expansion will be beneficial to the future of the university’s PA program.

He said the inter-professional labs will advance the education quality for current students, faculty and future members of CMU’s PA community. “(Students) will have the op-

portunity to apply the medicine they learned in the classroom in a low risk, highly real environment,” Clifford said.

President George Ross said the building will be a platform for students to grow together and to improve teamwork skills.

“They will learn and practice together, using the latest methods and latest technology. That is one reason that ‘integrated’ is part of the name,” Ross said.

The structure will add to the “vibrant” presence generated by the Health Professions Building, Ross said, and will better nurture the variety of programs offered

by CMU. “In today’s real world, physicians and health care professionals don’t work in the backroom,” Ross said. “Delivering care is a team effort and care teams share responsibility for a patient’s health.”

SlutWalk will remain relevant as long as there is mistreatment of women

n April 22, nearly 200 people took to the streets to march in the annual

SlutWalk.

The event is not unique to Central Michigan University. SlutWalk is a transnational movement that protests rape culture, street harassment and victim blaming. The marches are meant to highlight the culture that surrounds sexual assault and rape — namely, the culture of explaining away the event, or framing the traumatic incident solely as the fault of the victim.

When we initially reported that our SlutWalk was postponed due to weather, there were some people questioning the need for this event.

SlutWalk is more important now than it ever has been before.

In an era of movements like #MeToo and #TimesUp (and, while not a movement, a hard emphasis on the Larry Nassar case), America is in the throes of a revolution. We are calling out the harassers and sexual assaulters of the world. A spotlight has been aimed on rape culture, showing everyone that this will no longer be tolerated or kept quiet.

At CMU, our SlutWalk hits a little closer to home.

Our students, faculty and staff are marching not just for those who have come forward about being raped or sexually assaulted at CMU, but for those we don't even know about.

As we've hammered home the last couple of weeks, we don't even know how many people that encompasses. CMU will not even release the numbers of the amount of people who have filed sexual harassment or assault complaints.

We know because we've tried.

We know because the CMU chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists have been told the information is none of our business due to it containing "embarrassing" material. If

Lorielle Walker holds a sign during the Organization of Women Leaders’ Slutwalk 2018 on Aprill 22 on Preston Street.

EDITORIAL you haven't been reading our coverage, CMU was the only school in the Mid-American Conference to outright deny a request for sexual assault and harassment complaints filed for via a Freedom of Information Act request.

At CMU, our SlutWalk takes on a whole new meaning.

Our SlutWalk, while still largely being put on to raise awareness about rape culture and harassment, is also for a university that refuses to bring attention to a very real problem of college sexual assault. Our SlutWalk is to call attention to the fact that instead of being transparent about this issue, CMU would rather sweep it under the rug and pretend like it has the best interests of students at heart.

If they really did, they would release the number of complaints filed. If they really did care for students, they would be open about the locations of sexual assaults that occur on campus. Because at

the end of the day, telling the community about these numbers wouldn't just serve to be in our best interest — it would be in the best interest of CMU as well.

Once it becomes apparent the scope of the problem at CMU, both our Mount Pleasant and university community can work together to address the problem. Whether that's the addition of streetlights in a dimly lit corridor of campus or letting students know at orientation how they can file a complaint within the Title IX office, we can work together — as a community — to help stymie the problem.

This is why we still host SlutWalk: For those who have been sexually harassed, for the people who have been raped and for the students who have been the victims of rape or sexual harassment that the university will not be forthcoming about.

If CMU won't shine a spotlight on it, its students will.

We support them in their efforts, because we know — on a different level — we're fighting that same fight, too.

Thank you to those who marched on Sunday.

You're fighting the good fight.

Jack White forced me to unplug and enjoy the moment Last Thursday, I checked off another thing from my bucket list — I saw Jack White of The White Stripes perform at Little Caesars Arena.

I grew up listening to The White Stripes.

I burned a hole through their “White Blood Cells” album in my Hello Kitty CD player and once I graduated to an MP3 player, “Get Behind Me Satan” and “Elephant” were one of the first albums I threw on there. Living only 20 or so minutes outside the Detroit area, I’ve driven past the actual Hotel Yorba and made a point to visit Third Man Records as soon as I got my first turntable in middle school.

When my boyfriend (a fellow White Stripes aficionado) saw Jack was coming to Detroit on his “Boarding House Reach” tour, he didn’t even ask if I was free that night — he just bought the tickets.

The point is, I love The White Stripes.

When I found out Jack’s concert was a “no phones” venue, I was a bit disheartened. What if something cool happened and I wanted to save it to show people later? If he played one of my favorite songs,

Jordyn Hermani Editor-in-Chief

how was I supposed to get video of it to watch later?

In a more adult mindset — what if someone needed me and they couldn’t get a hold of me, for work or otherwise?

Working in news, you train yourself to think of being on the clock at all times.

Like we learned with the March 2 shooting, anything can happen at any time and you have to be ready.

Without a phone, how could I be ready?

My boyfriend convinced me to leave our phones in the car, rather than have to bring it in and lock them up. Staff in the venue were handing out these clunky Velcro sealed, lime green and grey pouches that latched with a plastic lock at the top. The only way they would open would be if, at the end of the show, security waved a wand

over the plastic and the latch popped.

He said it would be hell to keep those in our pockets for the show, and he was probably right, so we left our stuff.

I was away from my phone for a solid four hours and a handful of minutes.

At the risk of sounding like some cantankerous Baby Boomer, hellbent on proving technology is the true evil of the world...it was actually pretty awesome.

Rather than play around and take videos on our phones, like we usually do prior to shows, my boyfriend and I people-watched.

We made fun of the opening bands, who seemed both overly enthusiastic and completely dead on stage at the same time. We talked with other concert-goers and made friends for the night.

Instead of being insular, we expanded our concert experience to the people and things around us.

When the show started, I was more in tune with what was going on onstage. I noticed more of the background sets being broadcast on the enormous screens behind White and what musicians behind him

were doing. (My only regret was not getting video of White bringing his mother, a woman who might have been literally half of his 6-feet-2-inch height, up onstage to dance with him during a polka rendition of “Hotel Yorba.”)

But more than that, I wasn’t constantly checking my phone for notifications on things. I was untethered. I didn’t care in that moment about group projects, family drama or work updates.

I didn’t care — and it was nice not to.

When I got back to the car, the world hadn’t ended. There were a few missed calls, but no fires I couldn’t put out. There were unanswered texts and unseen notifications, but it wasn’t anything world-ending.

And that was OK. In the grand scheme of things, your presence isn’t so important that you can’t go AWOL for a few hours and be you.

Try it. Unplug yourself. Go outside. Do nothing. Do something. The weather’s getting nicer, go lay in the sun and read a book or take a nap.

You, and your mind, deserve it.

32-year-old’s NBA debut should inspire students to persevere On April 11, 32-year-old Andre Ingram made his Los Angeles Lakers debut after 10 seasons in the NBA G League. His story of perseverance should inspire college students.

With 11 minutes left in the second quarter, Ingram caught a pass from Lakers’ power forward Travis Wear, quickly putting a shot up and drilling his first 3-pointer.

Ingram holds the record for most 3-pointers made in the G League. He did not disappoint in his first NBA game, scoring 19 points on 4-of-5 shooting from 3-point range.

Early in the second quarter, “M-V-P” chants filled the Staples Center as Ingram stepped away from the foul line — hitting both free throws. Lakers fans recognized the effort and determination it took for Ingram to work his way into the NBA. It was the moment he had worked for after 10 years, and he seized it. The improbable performance proved dreams do become reality — with perseverance.

In high school, Ingram found himself overshadowed by the rest of the 2003 draft class —

Isaac Ritchey Staff Reporter

star-studded with recruits like LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. Ingram left big questions to be answered about defense and athleticism.

Four years later after going to college, Ingram went undrafted out of American Uni-

versity in Washington, D.C. He signed with NBA G League teams in Oshkosh and Fort Wayne, earning a measly $19,500 salary.

Ingram then moved to the Utah Flash and later, after the team folded, found himself a spot on the Los Angeles D-Fenders — the Lakers’ G League affiliate, which was later renamed to the South Bay Lakers. He was on the road to being part of the 2018 Los Angeles Lakers locker room.

Ingram had his bags packed April 9 to travel back to his home in Virginia and

headed to what he thought was an exit interview to discuss the season. Suddenly, Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka and Lakers owner Magic Johnson walked in.

“I thought, ‘this could be it,’” Ingram said.

Ingram was called up to the Lakers and signed for the rest of the season.

Before signing the contract for the final two games of the season, Ingram called his wife to tell her the news. Ingram’s wife and two children flew to watch him make his NBA debut.

“I was just sitting back watching the game as a fan,” said Lakers center Brook Lopez. “I’m like, ‘Wow, this is the stuff dreams are made of.’”

Ingram’s story is one that should inspire college students to persevere in their academic career, especially as the Spring 2018 semester concludes.

Every student has a dream. Central Michigan University provides opportunity, but it is up to the student to work, believe and persist through difficulty to make that dream come true.

Alumnus part of Pulitzer Prize finalist team at Houston Chronicle

By Kersten Kruse Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Former Central Michigan Life reporter Will Axford, a journalist with Houston Chronicle, is part of a reporting team nominated as a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize for its involvement in the coverage of Hurricane Harvey.

The Pulitzer website states the nomination was due to Houston Chronicle’s “comprehensive and dynamic coverage of real-time developments” during the storm. The staff is also recognized for providing crucial information to the community before and after the storm occurred.

The Pulitzer Prize is an award given for outstanding achievements in journalism,

literature and music. Thirteen awards are distributed every year. Houston Chronicle was

nominated in the “breaking news reporting” category.

Axford said he specifically

helped to watch breaking news alerts from police and those on social media during the storm.

He was also responsible for keeping the Houston Chronicle’s Twitter and Facebook feeds up to date.

Hurricane Harvey inflicted $125 billion in damages due to flooding in Houston last year.

Harvey was also the wettest tropical cyclone on record in U.S. history.

Axford said he didn’t know what to expect at first, but his journalistic skills kicked in rather than fearing for his safety. Communicating with those closest to him was key in reducing worries about safety, he said.

“It was surreal to see our work mentioned with the New York Times, Washington Post and other hardworking newspapers across the county,” Axford said. “I’m immensely

proud of the work we did during Hurricane Harvey and the work we continue to do.”

Axford has lived in Texas since 2016. He graduated from Central Michigan University in 2010. During his time at CMU, Axford worked for CM Life as a columnist and opinion editor.

Although Axford loves working at the Houston Chronicle, he said he feels immense gratitude toward his professors and for his time spent at CM Life during his college years.

“A lot of what I learned at CM Life still applies to my job today,” Axford said. “Asking dogged questions, being fair and accurate, balancing ethical quandaries — these are all things I learned on the fourth floor of Moore Hall that I still use every day in my current role.”

By Hunter McLaren Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

University officials largely believe emergency procedures worked after a double homicide took place on campus March 2.

Jonathan Webb, associate vice president of Facilities Management, said keeping campus safe on March 2 was made easier by the cooperation of students, faculty and staff.

“I think it’s a lot about the attitude of people here at Central (Michigan University) — a lot of Midwest values of people taking care of each other,” Webb said.

Both Webb and Lt. Cameron Wassman of the CMU Police Department mentioned the phrase “shelter in place” played a key role in communications with students, faculty and staff. The phrase refers

to seeking shelter within the building one is already occupying rather than evacuating or seeking a designated emergency shelter.

While there are policies and procedures in place for emergency situations on campus, Wassman said there is no protocol in place for a “lockdown” situation.

The size and scope of campus, as well as the fact that every emergency management scenario is unique, can make it challenging to create an effective campus-wide policy, Webb said.

“The goal is ensuring people are safe — that means keeping people who are inside a facility in and making sure people outside those facilities can find a place to go and be safe,” Webb said.

Ensuring safety can be different depending on what areas of campus students, faculty and staff are located.

Margaret Desormes, assistant director for the Child Development and Learning Laboratory, said the laboratory staff have many procedures already in place because of the shooting that took place at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012.

The lab consults with both CMUPD and the Mount Pleasant Police Department to ensure they are following the best practices laid out by the departments, Desormes said.

The lab is not open to children on Fridays, so there were none present on March 2. Regardless, she said staff locked down the lab in less than three minutes.

The lab will continue to make changes as needed to its procedures but many of the policies in place worked well on March 2, Desormes said.

For many students, March 2 in-

volved seeking shelter in residence and academic halls for up to six hours before being escorted out by police.

“It was very inconvenient for people being sheltered for an extended period of time, but everyone else got to go home to their loved ones or call mom and dad,” Webb said. “Is there room for improvement? Sure, there always is.”

Webb said the university is trying to gather as much data as it can to see what went right and wrong.

“For a lot of people on campus, it’s been every day,” he said. “Some sort of meeting or analysis that’s taking place that is leading to changes and improvements.”

Wassman said a large reason that campus was told to “shelter in place” for such a long period of time was simply because the suspect’s location was unknown

during that time.

The CMUPD has reached out to the FBI as well as the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for advice following the incident, Wassman said. One of the goals moving forward is trying to ensure the university’s communication with students during emergency events is clear and precise.

“These expectations and definitions and processes will not be a surprise to people,” Wassman said.

“We will be training (students, faculty, and staff) and have been.”

Wassman said that currently all incoming freshman and employees of the university take part in fire safety training, and that training could be expanded to include other safety issues.

The CMUPD also does training with groups on campus upon request and can cover fire, torna-

do, and hazardous material safety procedures. CMUPD also does “stay safe” training, which covers what to do in an active shooter scenario: get out of the area, hide out, or take out the threat.

The CMUPD also offers many of its training materials online, Wassman said.

The university is encouraging a discussion about the event and hopes those who would like to say something speak up, Webb said.

Students can voice their feedback through the Student Government Association or their residence hall directors. Webb said faculty and staff are being encouraged to talk with their supervisors.

“That dialogue is good because it helps people heal and share their feelings,” Webb said.

“It’s also very good for other people to realize others have those feelings, too.”

You think you might know everything about your professors — until you step into their office. Whether it be a sticker collection, souvenirs from other countries or an obsession with mythology, these offices seem to have personalities of their own. Some have stories behind their vibrant work spaces — others correlate directly with what the professor teaches.

Central Michigan Life staff photographers are taking you on a tour of some of the most interesting offices belonging to professors.

Former football players return for 2018 spring game

By Dylan Goetz Sports Editor sports@cm-life.com

Antonio Brown, Cooper Rush, Shane Morris and Tyler Conklin — all former Central Michigan football standouts — were in attendance for the 2018 spring game April 21 at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

Brown, a Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver, made a return to the 2018 CMU spring game accompanied by Athletic Director Michael Alford. The six-time NFL pro bowler had a chance to reflect on three years at CMU. “This is where it all began,” Brown said. “Nobody believed when I was here, and nobody thought I’d be where I’m at.

It’s all about doing things people wouldn’t expect you to do while coming from a place they wouldn’t expect you to come from.”

Morris, the 2017 season starting quarterback, used the spring game as an opportunity to learn from Brown. At the game, he set up a time to throw with Brown to learn his professional skills.

“I met (Brown) down in Miami when I was training because he also trains at the same place as me,” Morris said. “It’ll be good to throw with him.”

(Top) Junior wide receiver Cameron Cole defends against redshirt freshman Devonni Reed during the spring game on April 21 at Kelly/ Shorts Stadium.

Team White 29-22 in the annual spring game. Team Maroon was the offense and Team White was the defense.

Unlike years past, this game was a scrimmage between the offense and defense instead of a real game.

Before the game, CMU hosted a Kid’s Day event where children could get players’ signatures and run drills with the football team.

Some activities included field goal kicking, running routes, tackling and celebrations.

According to CMU athletics, there were 4,251 fans in attendance.

“I want to thank everyone who made it out today.

Shoot — it’s probably more than some of our mid-week crowds,” head coach John Bonamego said. ”Hopefully it is a sign of things to come, it was just a great day overall.”

The Chippewas will play each game at Kelly/Shorts Stadium next season on a Saturday. The 2018 season starts on Sept. 1 at Kentucky.

Sue Guevara will earn $340,000 in base salary and media and promotional appearances, but still isn’t the highest paid women’s basketball coach in the Mid-American Conference.

The head coach remains the third highest-paid head coach at Central Michigan, behind football head coach John Bonamego and men’s basketball head coach Keno Davis.

In a new contract announced April 16, the head coach received a $25,000 increase in base salary for the 2018-19 season.

Her base salary will increase from $265,000 to $290,000 in the 2018-19 season. In her current contract, Guevara earns a $265,000 base salary, with $40,000 in media and promotional appearances.

While her base salary will stay at $290,000 from 2018-2023, Guevara’s TV, radio and promotional appearance compensation will rise to $60,000 in 2020-21, $70,000 in 2021-22 and $80,000

NEWS AND NOTES FROM AROUND CAMPUS

GRADUATE TRANSFER GUARD AUSTIN FINDS ‘PERFECT FIT’ WITH CMU BASKETBALL When Larry Austin Jr. decided to transfer from Xavier following the 2015-16 season, Central Michigan made an attempt to bring him to Mount Pleasant.

Instead, Austin picked Vanderbilt.

Deciding to transfer again after two seasons with the Commodores, the CMU coaching staff made it a priority to get Austin.

This time, head coach Keno Davis and company were successful.

“They need a guy like me for (the team) and the style of play fits me,” Austin said.

“CMU is a great opportunity for me. It’s what we were both looking for.”

Assistant coach Kevin Gamble shares a unique bond with Austin. Along with being his main recruiter, Gamble was a 1983 graduate of Lanphier High School in Springfield, Illinois.

Also attending at Lanphier High School,

Austin averaged 22.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 4.2 steals as a senior in 2014. He shot 38 percent from the 3-point line and 73 percent from the free throw line that season.

“I have a good relationship with the staff,” Austin said. “They tried getting me after I transferred from Xavier, but I went to Vanderbilt. Coach Gamble and I are close because he was my main recruiter and we went to the same high school.”

The guard was a 2014 Class 3A unanimous First Team All-State selection by the Associated Press, Chicago Tribune and Chicago Sun-Times. He led his team to a 27-2 overall record and a 25-0 start, which set a record for the school and city of Springfield.

She will now have the second-highest base salary in the MAC — just behind Toledo’s Tricia Cullop, who inked a contract in May 2017 with a base salary of $300,000.

Guevara’s buyout increased to $1.5 million in the 2018-19 season. In her current contract, the buyout is set at only $500,000.

This means if Guevara wants to accept another job, she must pay the university $1.5 million for terminating the contract.

The university set a $5,000 incentive at the end of each season, which she will receive if McGuirk Arena averages 2,000 people in attendance after the
