Art to be auctioned for HOPE By Stacey Catterson Staff Reporter @DEN_News Artists, a coffee shop owner, poets, bands and others are aiming to spread awareness on domestic violence for the 10th annual Night of HOPE. The non-profit organization HOPE of East Central Illinois will have art pieces from local artists available for auction throughout the month of September at Jackson Avenue Coffee to raise awareness of domestic violence. The art pieces will be up for display and available for bidding on the walls of Jackson Avenue Coffee. The bidding started Monday and will continue
through Sept. 27 until the event Night of HOPE bidding closes at 9 p.m. Along with the auctioning, there will be raffle tickets that cost $5 for purchase until Night of HOPE. Gaye Harrison, a board member of HOPE, said domestic violence is an on-going issue, and the efforts of HOPE continue all year long. “Music and ar t seems like a very good vehicle to spread awareness on domestic violence,” Harrison said. “We have been overwhelmed by the response by local artists.”

Beginning in the fall of 2012, a two-year accreditation process came to full steam Wednesday and will be continuing for most of the school year. An accreditation for Eastern is a quality check for the university. Eastern’s steering committee, which oversees the process, has two chairs: Bob Augustine, the dean of the graduate school and Jeff Stowell, a psychology professor. The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools is accrediting Eastern. Augustine said the process is a two-year workin-progress and is constantly being worked on throughout the year. “The infrastructure of it began last fall,” he said. Augustine said the accreditation looks at the progress Eastern has made since the last time the university was accredited. “We also want to make sure the campus is informed about what we’re doing,” Augustine said. Even though the process has already started, Augustine said Eastern community members could contribute by coming to a First Friday seminar, which are checkpoints for the steering committee. The First Friday seminars are at 7:30 a.m. in the Loft of the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union. At each of the First Friday seminars, members of the steering committee will be presenting their section of the criterion. The criterion is split up into five different sections. The Mission criterion consists of explaining Eastern’s mission and making sure the public knows it. The Integrity criterion deals with the ethics of the university. The Teaching and Learning: Quality, Resources and Support criterion works with the quality of the education offered to students. The criterion Teaching and Learning: Evaluation and Improvement deals with how the institution handles the responsibility of its education quality and how effective the learning process is. Finally, the Resources, Planning and Institutional Effectiveness criterion sums up how Eastern is able to plan for the future with the quality of education it has, along with Eastern’s mission. Augustine said anybody who wants to come to the First Friday seminars are welcome. Augustine also said the criteria are available online on Eastern’s website. “Each First Friday we report out what we’re doing,” he said. He also said each report is a draft of what is happening and how the specific criterion is being handled, and they are looking for input from Eastern members.

Students and faculty will have the chance to bring forth any issues that they may have and address them with President Bill Perry on a personal level while also enjoying pizza on Wednesday. Pizza with the Prez will be from 4 to 5 p.m. Wednesday in the South Quad. Kathryn English, the student vice president of academic affairs, said the event allows students and faculty the opportunity to meet with Perry in an informal setting. English also said students and faculty are urged to attend and enjoy themselves over some pizza, drinks and music. There will also be games such as giant tic-tac-toe and giant checkers, English said. She said the event is hosted by the Academic Affairs Committee and is funded by the student government, making it free to all those who come. “They are able to introduce themselves to Perry and get his opinion on whatever (the students) bring up,” English said. English said the event is an exciting and fun way for students who want to build a personal connection with Perry. Student Body President Kaylia Eskew, a senior journalism major, said she encourages students to attend the Pizza with the Prez.

President Bill Perry talks with students during Pizza with the Prez program Jan. 29 in the basement of Andrews Hall. Pizza with the Prez will be from 4 to 5 p.m. Wednesday in the South Quad.
“(Perry) really wants to engage with the student body and hear what is on our mind,” Eskew said. English said Pizza with the Prez”is a good way to become better associated with Eastern. “It’s a great way for him to build a bond with Eastern as well,” English said. Since starting five years ago, Pizza with the Prez has brought Perry’s attention to a number of different issues around campus, including get-
ting class packets charged to student accounts. Student topics discussed on January 2013 at Pizza with the Prez ranged from the new display boards around campus to financial aid concerns. One topic that might be brought up on Wednesday is raising campus attention to the university’s new Homework Heroes program. The program was started by the University Dining and Housing Ser-

Guidebook works through Council rescheduling with devices to vote on By Jarad Jarmon Student Governance Editor @JJarmonReporter New Student Programs members worked to make the first part of the year easier for students with Guidebook, a smartphone application, which informs people of talks and meetings that will take place at conferences and conventions. Members of NSP used Guidebook as a tool for new students to find their way around the multitude of events for Prowl and the five weeks following. Kimberlie Moock, the director of NSP, said the reason they started using the application was because it seemed like a good way to be able to reach returning students as well as incoming students in an affordable way. After participating in a conference that used Guidebook, she said they were able to see how effective this type of tool is. “It is flexible and works on a variety of devices,” Moock said. The app works on Windows, Android and iPhone smartphones, and there are currently 1,658 users with the application. Moock said it cost $3,500 to be a

Fast Chat program postponed By Alex Seidler Staff Reporter @DEN_News Fast Chat, a networking opportunity for designers and artists, has been postponed until an undecided date. Robert Petersen, an art professor, and one of the organizers of Fast Chat, said the postponement was because of personal circumstances surrounding a few of the presenters. “Personal emergencies prevented several of key participants from being able to attend,” Petersen said. “We are working on rescheduling so that we can accommodate
changes in their availability.” Fast Chat is intended for artists, designers, artisans and creators to meet, network and talk about their work in front of many different people. During Fast Chat, a number of ar tists and speakers will be in the Tarble Arts Center Atrium with their work on display. Presenters will give a seven-minute presentation discussing their work. The presentation will be given through PechaKucha 20x20, a program that displays 20 images in 20

Beat the heat in Charleston Thirty is the new 20, orange is the new black, and apparently September is the new July. It’s hot out there, folks, very hot. This is the kind of heat that “Do the Right Thing” was filmed in. The forecast for the rest of the week again has us in the 90s, so it’s important to stay cool in these warm weather weeks. Obviously, you’re going to want to drink plenty of water. Keystone Light, despite what you may believe, does not hydrate you the same way that good old water does. Take a water bottle to class or keep one in your backpack when you need to make that drudged trek from Lawson to Old Main during the sun’s peak hours. If you’ve already blown through your refund check and forgot to invest in an air conditioner, there’s still hope for you not melting. Buy a cheap fan for your room. Wal-Mart is sure to have a wide variety of selections in sizes and prices. If you’d like to get real adventurous, you could hang up all of your bedding in the coolest part of your house as soon as you wake up so that it can be exposed to the cool air. Then when you’re ready to hit the hay, they’ll be nice and cool, and you won’t be as miserable. Dress for the occasion. Wear a hat and be sure to keep your neck covered. If you’re trying to work on your tan by sitting on the Doudna steps, make sure you wear sunscreen, so you don’t burn. If you workout, try to aim for working out indoors unless you know you can bear the heat. If you haven’t been on a run all summer, now probably isn’t the best time to hit the Panther Trail. Take to the Student Recreation Center where you can find yourself a treadmill or hit the track. Who knows how long this heat will last. Maybe August-September-October is going to become the new June-July-August or maybe not and the sun gods just hate us. Whatever the reason, we’re just going to have to deal with it until we can hope for another snow day (fingers crossed!). So, after class today, get yourself some ice cream or a frozen yogurt.

Accept personal responsibility, help people As I walked home Friday afternoon, I crossed Lincoln Ave. as soon as my light turned green, giving me the go-ahead. Fortunately, it was the afternoon, so I was fairly awake – awake enough to see a car flying down Lincoln, giving a sharp right turn and almost hit me. In the driver’s hand was a cell phone. I could rally about texting and driving and the dangers that particular area brings, but this incident got me thinking about personal responsibility. Personal responsibility, in this self-centered time, has taken a severe nose-dive recently. It can crop up at any time in any situation, from anything as small as not cleaning up individual messes, to neglecting this responsibility when getting behind the wheel of a car. When people are asking for more likes on Facebook rather than actually going out to help somebody, that is indicitave of a bigger problem. As somebody who also can be neglectful and forgetful of personal duties and what needs to be done, I know how hard it can be to stand up and do my part.
Bob Galuski As college students, especially, this needs to be something that is remembered more and more. Daunting and exciting as entering the real world after our tour at Eastern may be, it also comes with a whole slew of responsibilities. Jobs, bills, homecare and everything in between may seem like a distant trouble, especially to freshmen, but it is something that should be in the back of your head. It starts here and now. Take responsibility for your actions, and what consequences may come of them now and you will settle into a routine. If people remembered how their activities could affect somebody – either positively or negatively – they may be tempted to continue or halt.
Looking at the bigger picture, it is necessary to know in the years following college; you will have so many opportunities. These are opportunities for greatness – but can be squandered by not doing your specific duty. It is easy to get lost in the hustle of individual lives – worrying about the latest status getting liked on Facebook or finally reaching your 10,000th tweet on Twitter, but in the grand scheme of things, it is not all that important. It really isn’t. But instead of focusing that energy on actually bettering the world, we have squandered it. Do not let these opportunities rush by because of a lack of personal responsibility. With unnecessary violence, unnecessary malicious acts against fellow humans plaguing the world, maybe the world would be better off if people instead thought of others rather then themselves – even if it was something as small as putting away their cell phone when they went for a drive.

Keep your ‘parents,’ friends close Once you get home from a night of partying, you really should give your parents a hug, and I’m not talking about mommy and daddy for the moment. Take a look at your group of friends who you go out with for a moment and think. There is always that one person in the group who has the job of getting your drunk face home. I like to call them the “parents.” This person would be me for my group of friends. For the most part, we “parents” are the most level-headed of the group. We know that walking away from a moron at a party is much more sensible than scissor kicking him in the face because your bed is comfier than a jail cell. We do not take this job voluntarily. It is typically bestowed on us, but we take it anyway. Even if we throw a few back, we still have to be the ones to make sure everyone gets home safely. I’m not complaining. I just feel that one friend in your group deserves a little bit of recognition. They are probably burning twice as many brain cells with the alco-
Kyle Daubs hol, and processing possible escape routes if things go bad. Most nights are not like that anyway. It’s usually not your friend that starts anything. If it’s not a moron ruining the night for everyone else, maybe it’s a night holding the hair back. Maybe, it’s a night of fireman style carrying you to your bed. There’s even a slight chance of running down the dude who stole your Taco Bell. I believe my worst experience as a “parent” was in Panama City Beach this past spring break. My friend had drunk threefourths of a handle of Admiral Nelson. It’s quite impressive really. I fell asleep at 1 a.m. He and a group of
people came back to our hotel and woke me up. When they arrived, I wrote on a piece of paper what the heck is happening but not exactly in those words. Eventually, my friend found it. He was mad that I wrote something about him, threatened to beat me up, yelled in my face, made me promise never to write about him again and made me apologize to the group. I apologized and slept outside that night. The next morning, he heard what happened, apologized and offered to be the designated driver that night. Moments when your friends realize they were a total jerk that night make being a “parent” awesome. We do it because you are our closest friends, and you would jump through hoops for us if we needed you to. Keep your “parents” close. They are your best friends for a reason.

Rob Hopkins, class of 1984, serves the ball during the Alumni Tennis Match Saturday. During Hopkins’ time on Eastern’s tennis team, he won five singles his freshman year, two his sophomore year and won the second singles conference. Hopkins attributes much of his team’s success to Carl Sexton, his coach at the time, who died of brain cancer in 1986. Hopkins, along with his six teammates present at the alumni match, agreed that they were thrilled to be back on the tennis courts and paying homage to Sexton.

Panthers surrender four straight losses to open 2013 season By Dominic Renzetti Managing Editor @domrenzetti The Eastern women’s soccer team was handed a pair of 2-0 shutouts in this weekend’s Green Bay Phoenix Tournament, falling to both Northern Iowa and host Green Bay. The Panthers are now 0-4-0 on the season under interim head coach Jason Cherry. The Panthers took the field Friday against Northern Iowa, allowing two second half goals after holding the game scoreless for the first 71 minutes. Freshman defender Mary Brandt headed the ball off an assist from sophomore midfielder Maggie Riley to give Northern Iowa its first goal of the game. Northern Iowa would increase its lead just a few minutes later when senior Morgan Gallagher would score in the 81st minute off an assist from freshman Amber Nieland. After saying the starting goalkeeper would be a game-time decision, Cherry opted to go with sophomore Cortney Jerzy. The start was Jerzy’s first for the Panthers after transferring to Eastern from St. Xavier last spring. The Homer Glen native made four saves on the day. Jerzy becomes the third different goalkeeper to start a game for the Panthers this season. Sophomore Emily Hinton started in the 5-1 loss against Oakland, while red-shirt freshman Kylie Morgan started in the 3-0 loss against Northern Illinois. Nicole Postel recorded the win for Northern Iowa. Eastern freshman Madison Kloster had the team’s only shot on goal, as Northern Iowa outshot the Panthers 11-4. Northern Iowa also had 10 corner kicks in the contest compared to just one by Eastern. The second match of the weekend also saw the Panthers hold their opponent scoreless through the first half. The Phoenix would score their first goal of the game in the 63rd minute when junior midfielder Abby Juzwik shot from the top of the box. Juzwik was assisted by senior forward Helka Palmadottir and sophomore forward Heidi Hartmann. Green Bay would add another goal just five minutes later when junior defender Jenna Harrington would score on a header off a free kick. Jerzy would again get the start for the Panthers, making her the first Eastern goalkeeper this season to start consecutive matches. She made seven saves in the match. Green Bay goalkeeper Katy Pilarzyk started the first 62 minutes, but was later relieved by Nastacia Behle. Eastern was outshot 19-3, with red-shirt freshman defender Paige DeThorne taking the only shot on goal for the Panthers. Senior defender Caitlin Greene was named to the All-Tournament team. Green Bay’s Hannah Kernen was named tournament MVP. Eastern will be on the road again this Friday, taking on Ball State at 6 p.m. in Muncie, Ind.

Panthers suffer worst loss in team history By Bob Reynolds Staff Reporter @DEN_Sports The Eastern rugby team lost its first match of the season 65-7 to Quinnipiac Saturday at Lakeside Field. The 58-point loss by the Panthers marks the largest margin of defeat in school history. It was the fifth time that Eastern played Quinnipiac with both schools being Division I programs. Though this particular game lacked the usual competitive edge on the scoreboard, Quinnipiac coach Becky Carlson said the victory did not come easy. “The QU vs. EIU rivalry is always expected to bring some good rugby,” she said. “We played several combinations of offense against the Panthers and not once did EIU let up on us which is always a factor in NCAA Rugby.” After a scoreless 10 minutes of play, Bobcats scored 38 unanswered points as they defeated the Eastern Illinois Panthers 65-7 Saturday at Lakeside Field.
Graziano said everything that they hoped for had started to fall into place for the first five minutes. Twenty-five yards away from scoring, the Panthers had a turnover that Quinnipiac would take advantage of for the rest of the game, Graziano said. “We were completely out of position,” he said. “We had to go from offense to defense immediately. That was too much for our newcomers to understand. They just started running down the field and made us more out of position.” The Bobcats, now 1-0 on the season, were led by sophomore Natalie Kosko who recorded four tries which matched her career high. Quinnipiac got off to an early 10-0 lead as Kosko and Elisa Cuellar brought the ball down the field, recording back-to-back tries for the Bobcats. The Panthers’ red-shirt freshman Miranda Hankins broke the shutout mid-way through the first half and sophomore Hannah Vieth added the two-point conversion, for the lone Panthers scoring play on the afternoon.
The Bobcats continued their offensive dominance by adding three more scores in the second half. Graziano said Quinnipiac did not do anything different than they expected. “They ran the ball when they had the opportunity to run the ball and they recognized when we were defensively deficient somewhere,” Graziano said. “They got some talented players.” Despite the Panthers loss, they edged the Bobcats 13-4 in scrums and 14-13 in lineouts. This was only the second time since 2007 that Eastern found itself on the losing end of a 30-plus deficit. The Panthers return home Saturday Sept. 7 to play a group of Wisconsin All-Stars at 1 p.m. at Lakeside Field. Eastern lost to the Wisconsin All-Stars in a three-match set last season (5-17, 24-17, 0-32). Bob Reynolds can be reached at 581-2812 or rjreynolds@eiu.edu.

Chicago storm postpones match with UIC By Michael Spencer @tmskeeper Staff Reporter The Eastern men’s soccer team will have to wait another week before it begins the 2013 season. The first match of the year, scheduled for Friday against the University of Illinois-Chicago, was postponed because of thunderstorms in the area. No makeup date has been set. The inclement weather will force the Panthers to wait nearly two weeks between taking the field in an official match. Their last outing was against Dayton in the final match of the preseason on Aug. 24, resulting in a 2-1 loss. The stalled start to their season means that the Panthers are the only team in the Summit League that has yet to get their regular season campaign underway. League favorite Denver has played twice
(1-1) along with Western Illinois (1-1), Fort Wayne (0-1-1) and Nebraska Omaha (0-2). Oral Roberts (0-1) and IUPUI (0-0-1) have also played a match apiece. Eastern assistant coach Mark Hansen was excited to get the regular season started against UIC because of what he described as a matchup between two very similar teams. However, the 13 days between matches will now give Eastern a chance to rehabilitate a few injuries to players that head coach Adam Howarth said would likely appear in his first eleven. “We are still missing some strong players in terms of injuries,” Howarth said. Having two weeks off will offer the team a chance to get healthy ahead of a busy weekend. The squad will travel to Dayton, Ohio Friday for a tournament hosted by Dayton. The tournament will force Eastern team to play two matches over the course of three days against Liscomb University and North-
ern Kentucky University. Howarth said before the preseason that the upcoming competition is meant to serve as a simulation of the Summit League postseason tournament that also requires teams to play matches in quick succession. Additionally, the competition will highlight the Panthers’ depth — an aspect of the team that players and coaches alike have emphasized in the early stages of the season. Eastern is scheduled to play Lipscomb in the first matchup of the Dayton tournament at 4:30 p.m. Sept. 6, followed by a match 11 p.m. Sept. 8 with Northern Kentucky. The team will return home for the 50th anniversary tournament hosted Aug. 13-15 at Lakeside Field.

Panthers sweep weekly awards By Aldo Soto Assistant Sports Editor @DEN_Sports The Eastern football team scored five touchdowns on offense in its fifth win ever over an FBS opponent in San Diego State. Its defense both intercepted and sacked San Diego State quarterback Adam Dingwell four times. And Eastern running back Shepard Little trotted into the end zone for the Panthers’ first punt return touchdown since 2010. The final 20 seconds ticked off the clock with the Eastern offense on the field, which rushed for 172 yards and threw for 361 more. The clock struck zero; Eastern picked up the Ohio Valley Conference’s second largest win against an FBS opponent, beating the Aztecs 40-19 Saturday night in Qualcomm Stadium. The Panther defense surrendered three consecutive scoring drives to the Aztecs in the first quarter, but in the remaining three, San Diego State could only manage two field goals. Eastern recovered one of San Diego State’s four fumbles to go along with the four interceptions, two of which came from OVC Defensive Player of the Week Alex McNulty. McNulty was also named the National co-Defensive Player of the Week by the Sports Network, sharing the honor with Charleston Southern linebacker Calvin Bryant. The red-shirt senior’s first inter-
ception came with under a minute remaining in the first quarter. McNulty stepped in front of a Dingwell pass and gave Eastern the ball on the Aztecs’ side of the field with a 21-yard return. Even after a Panther holding penalty on the return, the Panthers started their drive at the San Diego State 45-yard line. E a s t e r n q u a r t e r b a c k Ji m m y Garoppolo connected with fellow senior Erik Lora for a fouryard touchdown. The duo’s second touchdown of the evening gave the Panthers a 13-7 lead. Lora finished with a game-high 10 catches for 87 yards. Garoppolo threw his third touchdown pass to sophomore Keiondre Gober in the second quarter, which gave Eastern the halftime lead. The 62-yard touchdown was Eastern’s longest play of the game. Gober hauled in six catches for a gamehigh 140 yards. Eastern’s offensive line made up of Nick Borre (center), Jimmy Lowery and Dominic Pagliara (tackles), Alex Pierce and Collin Seibert (guards) combined to win the OVC Offensive Player of the Week. The award was given to a unit of players for the first time in the history of the award. Eastern ran the ball 19 times in the second half for 96 yards (5.1 average). Panther running back Taylor Duncan took two of those 19 carries into the Aztec end zone. His 45-yard burst through the San Diego State defense in the
fourth quarter capped off Eastern’s 21-point output in the final 30 minutes. The offensive line aided the Panther running backs to rush for 154 yards on 30 carries as Duncan finished with 92 yards and Little with 62. Garoppolo passed the ball 46 times but was not sacked by the Aztecs. He was knocked down once in the game and finished with 20 yards rushing on four carries. The quarterback’s 361 passing yards ascended him to second in Eastern’s all-time passing yards leaders. Garoppolo passed Tony Romo and is now 2,188 yards from tying Sean Payton for the school record. Little swept the OVC weekly awards for Eastern, winning the OVC Special Teams Player of the Week. His 60-yard punt return touchdown was the Panthers’ fifth punt return touchdown of at least 50 yards in the school’s history. The 21-point win against San Diego State raised the Panthers in the FCS rankings, moving up seven spots to No. 14 in the Sports Network Poll and also moved up to No. 16 in the FCS Coaches Poll. The Panthers remain as the only OVC team ranked in the Sports Network Poll. Aldo Soto can be reached at 581-2812 or asoto2@eiu.edu.
