Butch Jones

Second year brings high expectations

By Daniel Monson Sports Editor

Last August, Butch Jones was heading into his first season as head coach with a defending conference championship team and a load of expectations.

One year later, the expectations have elevated even higher, and Jones’ team is still the defending Mid-American Conference champions.

If only it was that simple, Jones often says. In the last year, Jones was on the defense (the week after a 44-14 loss to North Dakota State), flirted with other jobs (he was interviewed twice for West Virginia’s coaching vacancy) and was given a lucrative extension (five years, total of $1.45 million plus more than $150,000 in possible bonuses).

“We have about 175 individuals that I’m directly responsible for in our football family,” he said. “We’re in a people business — I think every day there’s something new.”

He took the Indoor Athletic Complex and turned it into a virtual museum of Central Michigan football — complete with trophies, plaques, awards and a plethora of photos of Chippewas from past and present.

“If you walk through our facilities right now, you see a vision of our football program,” Jones said. “You come in and you’re entrenched with the tradition that exists here. You’re also entrenched with where we want to take the program.

That stuff doesn’t appear overnight.”

He, along with Athletics Director Dave Heeke and staff, he has worked donors up and down to contribute back to their alma mater.

“I respect the guy immensely, and I love going to work with him every day,” Heeke said. “It is a joy and it inspires me to work every day to help our program improve.”

While other coaches may just focus on Xs and Os, Jones delves deeper into the mindset of his

players. He frequently holds individual meetings in his office, and organizes events outside of football to get to know the student-athletes that put on a uniform for him every day.

“We do all kinds of group activities as a team. We have chapel — it’s more faith-oriented,” said senior running back Justin Hoskins. “It’s more like a family atmosphere instead of just a business. It makes football fun; it doesn’t make it such like a job.

It’s working hard as a family to accomplish one goal — to win — and that’s what makes it much better.”

An example of the family Jones has created came over the summer, when several of his assistants had the opportunity to leave for other positions around the country. But a year later, his entire 11-person coaching staff remains intact.

And he hopes the word gets out. The more wins and success the program experiences, the more recruits hear about what he’s building.

“Like anybody, you want to be a part of a winning program,” said freshman running back Jahleel Addae. “Here, all I see is this program going up to another level each and every year, including this year ... Being around a winning program attracted me.”

Spread offense evolves at CMU

By Tim Ottusch News Editor

file photo by patrick siller

Head coach Butch Jones enters his second season with a higher comfort level from players and coaches after defending CMU’s Mid-American Conference championship.

With his second year about to begin, Jones said he can’t take a day off from continually making progress.

“I think my past experiences prepared me for this,” he said.

“The definition of building a

program is that it’s very solid in everything you do. Those expectations are in place now and our players understand that. But you have to continue to build that.” sports@cm-life.com

It’s no wonder the system the CMU football team used to win back-to-back Mid-American Championships is taking over the college game.

The spread offense is no longer a new concept for football programs across the nation.

The idea is to put the defense on its toes so it never knows what to expect. Using the entire field and maximizing available players is crucial to thin the defense, said CMU offensive coordinator Mike Bajakian.

“The goal is to make the defense defend the entire field,” he said.

Sophomore running back Carl Volny likes the opportunities that the system provides.

“When I came here, when I thought about spread offense (I thought) it was just passing,” Volny said. “But when Jones came, he just wanted more running than passing.”

CMU’s version of the spread offense is a mix of variations Jones, Bajakian, assistant head coach Zach Azzanni and offensive line coach Don Mahoney used in

their coaching experiences.

“The big thing is getting your athletes into space and get them quick touches where they can get their hands on the ball,” said head coach Butch Jones.

The team adds a no-huddle offense, which can leave the defense rattled, Bajakian said.

“It causes the defense problems in terms of matching personnel and getting the right guys on the field,” Bajakian said.

“And obviously conditioning becomes a factor if you can play a little faster.”

However, it can work the other way when the defense is forced on the field after three quick plays and out for the offense.

“You’ve got to keep that in mind and sometimes you can put your defense in adverse situations,” Jones said.

Running the spread also helps the team from a recruiting aspect.

“A lot of times you can usually find athletes that fit the system more so than a pro-style offense where you might need bigger bodies,” Bajakian said. sports@cm-life.com

Team prepares for the

long stretch

BY KYLE ABRELL skabrell@indiana.edu

Under the guidance of coach Ron Helmer, the IU cross country team looks use 2008 to build upon their strong finishes last season to become a top contender in the Big Ten. The runners kicked off their season Sept. 13 opening with an unscored meet at home. They didn’t have to go far for their first meet, either, running on familiar soil at the IU Cross Country Course in the Indiana Open on Friday. “(We) want a good, low-key opening opportunity where our training volume is high,” Helmer said.

“It’s different, because our athletes go all the way to June. (It provides) a good chance to put things into place. The primary reason for September is to train and prepare for championships.”

The men’s team is anchored by seniors Timothy McLeod and Brennan Plotner, and sophomore Cole Hardacre. All three competed in the NCAA Tournament last year.

Hardacre looks to build upon his All-Big Ten second-team performance at last year’s Big Ten Championships to help his team succeed.

“Last year, we made it to Nationals,” Hardacre said. “But if everyone is healthy, we can strive to be a top-20 team in the nation and more. I want to help the seniors do the best we can. I don’t care if I’m the first or fifth runner, I’ll be happy if the team does well.”

The Hoosiers will be up against stiff Big Ten com-

OHIO » CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4 over the phone during the next few months and went on their official visits together in January of 2006.

During the summer leading up to their freshman year, they talked extensively over the phone about moving in and things to do in Bloomington. Once at IU the two became great friends, which developed into their current relationship.

With different class schedules, they do not have much time to play golf together. Martin said when they do play, he doesn’t let Nochta win but added she has come very close.

Over the summer both return to the Buckeye state to play in tournaments. During the summer after their

petition, including perennial powerhouse Wisconsin, a team that has won the last nine Big Ten championships.

On the women’s squad, senior Lauren Keefe, sophomore Sarah Pease and junior Wendi Robinson are expected to lead the pack.

The team stressed that early meets are about getting a good workout, running as a team and preparing for the long upcoming season.

The Hoosiers enjoy the hospitality of their home course for the first two weekends before they have to prepare to head west to Stillwater, Okla., for the Oklahoma State Cowboy Jamboree race on Oct. 4.

Oklahoma State will be host to the event. The Cowboys finished third at nationals last season.

“It gives the athletes a chance to get to see a different part of the country, a different collegiate experience,” Helmer said.

After the Cowboy Jamboree, the team will need to immediately divert its focus to the meat of its schedule, starting with Pre-Nationals in Terre Haute on Oct. 18. From there, the Hoosiers will endure a long stretch including the Big Ten Championships, Great Lakes Regional and NCAA Championships, all in the month of November.

For now, however, both teams are focused on beginning their season in a positive manner.

“We are very determined,” Robinson said. “We want to build from last year and create an atmosphere of success.”

freshman year Nochta caddied for Martin during the Ohio Open, where he finished as the top amateur.

“She helped me out a lot,” Martin said.

This past summer Martin returned the favor; he served as Nochta’s caddie during this summer’s Ohio Open, where she finished second overall and was also the top amateur.

“I take no credit for that,” he said. “I just helped her out as much as I could.”

The two also try to attend each other’s tournaments when possible. Nochta traveled to Purdue in May for the NCAA Golf Championship.

Martin said he appreciated having Nochta there and supports her whenever he can.

“Whenever we get the chance, we try to cheer each other on,” he said.

Center aids disabled students

MSU RESEARCH FOCUSES ON LIFE AFTER CHILD FOSTER CARE SYSTEM

By Stephanie Goldberg THE STATE NEWS ■■

SAM RUIZ/THE STATE NEWS

Austin Rudd, 18, center, has been diagnosed with moderate to severe autism. He puts together a puzzle with the help of MSU Sturdent Michigan Education Association students, elementary education juniors Michelle Smith, left, and Ashley Rettell, right, Wednesday at Lansing Area Parents’ Respite Center’s after-school program, 2901 Wabash Road, in Lansing.

By Julie Baker THE STATE NEWS ■■

Lansing — Tapping her index finger on the table, 13-year-old Lexie Edwards followed along as two MSU students read from Dr. Seuss’ “Horton Hears a Who!” Across the room, two students flipped through a car magazine, asking a boy with autism to pick out his favorite.

Members of MSU’s Student Michigan Education Association, or SMEA, came prepared to read and interact with students with disabilities Wednesday at the Lansing Area Parents’ Respite Center’s after-school program.

Michelle Smith, community service chair for SMEA, said volunteering at the respite center was a unique opportunity for the group of future teachers.

“Even though special educa-

“These are children that need a lot of help, but they need to have fun, and they need to be regular children too.”

Judy Wagner, executive director of the Lansing Area Parents’ Respite Center

tion students have separate classrooms, they still come into the regular classroom for a lot of the day,” Smith said. “As teachers, we should know how to work with them.”

Lakeka Pruitt, the center’s after-school program director, said students of all ages participate in the program, but many are in their teens and early 20s.

Special-needs students do activities similar to those of other after-school programs, she said.

“We play every day,” she said.

“It just requires more hands-on attention.”

Judy Wagner, executive director of the respite center, said the after-school program provides relief services for families of children with severe disabilities, such as autism and cerebral palsy, as well as those who are deaf, have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and mental impairments.

The time gives parents the opportunity to do things they might not normally have time for, including trips to the grocery store or doctor’s visits, she said.

Many of the children see the time as a break from their par-

ents as well, Wagner said.

“These are children that need a lot of help, but they need to have fun, and they need to be regular children too,” she said.

The private, nonprofit center was founded in 1989 and has offered the after-school program since 1996.

Working at the center was one of the many community service projects SMEA members have done throughout the year to complete their community service requirement.

Jenn Woodberg, an education senior and SMEA member, said volunteering at the center was the first opportunity she’s had to interact with students with severe disabilities.

“I haven’t had much experience, so I wanted to see what it’s like,” she said. “You can’t learn that in a classroom.”

UNIVERSITY

MSU assistant professor wins prestigious award

By Julie Baker THE STATE NEWS ■■

Alexandra Gade, an assistant professor at MSU, was drawn to the university because of its rare premier isotope laboratory, the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory.

Now she ha s joi ned the ranks of it s awa rdwinning physicists.

Gade, who Gade came to MSU from Germany six years ago as a postdoctoral researcher, was named a 2008 Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellow for her research on the structure of atomic nuclei at the Cyclotron.

As a scientist, the benefit of winning the fellowship is connected to research money that will open up freedom to pursue her own research ideas,

Gade said.

“I was surprised — nobody can anticipate to win,” she said.

The fellowship recognizes 118 early-career researchers from the U.S. and Canada for their studies in seven fields: chemistry, computational and evolutionary molecular biology, computer science, economics, mathematics, neuroscience and physics.

Gade is among 22 researchers who received the award in the physics field this year.

“The Sloan award reflects the fact that (the Cyclotron) is continuing to attract some of the top scholars in the world to teach and do research here in East Lansing,” said Geoff Koch, communication manager for the Cyclotron.

“It opens up the possibility to make modest investments to enhance research capabilities.”

Konrad Gelbke, director of the Cyclotron

MSU has had four Sloan winners in physics since 1976, along with others in fields like chemistry and mathematics.

Konrad Gelbke, director of the Cyclotron and a 1979 winner of the Sloan fellowship, said the award recognizes outstanding young scientists like Gade.

“It just validates our search process,” Gelbke said.

Winners of the Sloan fellowship receive $45,000, which is to be used for research over a twoyear period. Candidates may be no more than six years from the completion of their most recent Ph.D. Gelbke said the funds that come along with winning the fellowship come with minimal strings attached, and Gade will be able to perform the research she wants without seeking consultation.

“It opens up the possibility to make modest investments to enhance research capabilities,” Gelbke said. “I just went with my gut feeling, and now Dr. Gade has that opportunity.”

Angelique Day said she never imagined that the 18 months she spent in foster care would make her an asset to the child welfare system.

But they have.

Day, a social work researcher, said she was embarrassed of her foster care history when she began her journey as an MSU student. Thanks to caring faculty, she was able to use her past to shape her future.

“I realized it shouldn’t be something I hide from,” she said.

“I decided to use it to my advantage to develop my career.”

After graduating, Day was hired by social work associate professor John Seita to contribute to foster care research.

The W.K. Kellogg Foundation issued Seita a two-year, $400,000 grant to facilitate research. The grant expires Dec. 31.

Seita said he began his research after finding the majority of people once involved in the foster care system went on to lead difficult and unsuccessful adult lives.

“I didn’t realize I was an anomaly,” said Seita, who lived in 15 different homes while in the foster care system and spent a portion of his early adult life on the streets of East Lansing.

Seita said he is pleased with the ground his research is covering.

“I thought I would never be successful at all, so it’s nice that people are finally starting to pay attention,” he said.

While the majority of research on the topic is centered around children currently involved in the foster care system, the MSU research is unique because of the focus on peoples’ lives after foster care, Day said.

Day said the research is

important to her as she found it difficult transitioning into school and adulthood until she met her mentor, Suzanne Cross.

Cross, an associate professor in the School of Social Work, was an important figure in her life and helped her to succeed.

“Having Seita access to one caring adult who is irrationally crazy about you makes such a difference,” Day said. “We need someone to fill that void in our lives.”

Day currently mentors Wesley Patton, among other students, who grew up in the foster care system.

Patton said before coming to MSU, he didn’t have an adult in his life he could talk to or look to for advice.

“I’m in a position I thought I would never get after all the situations I have been through,” said Patton, a finance sophomore. “I’m glad I have met people who have been in the same situation to give advice and listen.”

Seita and Day met four years ago when Day was a student in Seita’s child welfare class at MSU. “Seita’s class was just too intense for me,” Day said. “I had never dropped a class in my life, and I dropped this class.”

Seita chose Day to be a part of the research project because of her authentic experience in the foster care system, he said.

In spring 2005b she re-enrolled in Seita’s class.

“It’s remarkable how it impacts our work,” he said.

“People are more likely to be honest and authentic because of backgrounds.”

The Dukes of Stratosphear Chips from the Chocolate Fireball 1987

Horrrsing is an album that essentially fulfills that function — it’s aurally pleasing, technically proficient and most importantly, able to blend into the background as you hit the books.

A lush mixture of sonic textures and loops, the album is a series of slow crescendos that travel from ethereal ambiance to droning noise and back again.

This ebb and flow, though perhaps a bit intimidating for casual listening,

tion span while attempting to tackle a particularly dense passage of Heidegger or Derrida — it disappears into the background immediately after you press play, but just as your mind begins to wander from the page, the music jars you back into consciousness. Until they figure out how to get caffeine and nicotine into mp3s, that’s about as good as study albums are going to get.

34TH STREET Magazine April 3, 2008

As a break from their somewhat more somber projects, the British new-wave group XTC traveled back in time to pay homage to their musical influences under the pseudonym The Dukes of Stratosphear and produced Chips from the Chocolate Fireball. The album is a self-conscious, self-indulgent experiment in lighthearted fun — a tribute without the sappiness, a collection of imitations without the phoniness.

Including counter-intuitively original impersonations of the best of 1960s psychedelic music, Chips summons the dreamy pop of the Hollies, the harmonies of Pet Sounds, the upbeat lyricism of the Kinks, the deranged echoes of a The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and so much more. The best part is guessing the songs being imitated and picturing the uninhibited fun the Dukes had making weird whirring noises while emulating their musical heroes — and with the technology to do what their heroes could have only imagined, the album shines in its own right.

—Liza St. James
