Alderman talks career, NU-city relations By MANUEL RAPADA
daily senior staffer
On election night in April 2009, Ald. Jane Grover (7th) said one of her friends at a Northwestern polling place reported she had beaten her opponents 2 to 1. “I said, ‘Well that’s really — that’s a great margin, I like the percentage.’” That friend clarified: two votes to one. Three students showed up to Patten Gym to cast votes in the 7th Ward race. Four years after winning the 7th Ward City Council seat with more than 59 percent of the vote, Grover faces no challengers in the upcoming April 9 election. Grover admitted Tuesday that it is difficult to get students excited about Evanston government while they work toward academic and extracurricular success. The key, she said, is to find overlap between the University and the city’s extracurricular offerings. Haven Middle School students, including Grover’s seventh-grade son, worked on “The Snow Queen” with more than a dozen Northwestern students. The 7th Ward alderman said it was a good
opportunity for her son to work with talented NU students. Grover also meets regularly with Associated Student Government officials, including Steven Monacelli, vice president for community relations. In her coming term, Grover said she hopes to hold another joint ward meeting on campus with Ald. Delores Holmes (5th), whose ward represents many NU students living off campus, to discuss city issues with NU students. Aside from working on the same offcampus housing committee, Grover said she has not often worked with Ald. Judy Fiske (1st)when reaching out to Northwestern students. Fiske is being challenged by resident Edward Tivador. “Ald. Fiske and I are working toward the same purpose, but on different tracks,” she said. “But there’s an opportunity to coordinate more.” Fiske and Grover were on opposing sides in October when City Council voted to grant NU a certificate of appropriateness for the proposed visitors’ center. Days earlier, the city’s Preservation Commission denied a request for a certificate of appropriateness. Grover explained Tuesday she looked

Questions remain about Maddula By CAT ZAKRZEWSKI

As Evanston Police close the five-month investigation into the death of McCormick sophomore Harsha Maddula, many questions remain unanswered. Evanston Police Department spokesman Cmdr. Jay Parrott told The Daily on Monday the manner of Maddula’s death has been deemed accidental, with a contributing factor of alcohol consumption. The body of the 18-year-old was recovered in the Wilmette Harbor on Sept. 27. Parrott told The Daily on Tuesday the EPD does not have any leads on why Maddula may have walked north to Wilmette Harbor from the off-campus party in the 2000 block of Ridge Avenue, where he was last seen around midnight Sept. 22. The Daily reported in September that Weinberg sophomore Linzy Wagner called Maddula at approximately 12:35 a.m., at which time Maddula told her he was back in his room in the Public Affairs
Residential College. Video surveillance footage from the dorm, however, revealed Maddula did not return to his room.. According to a statement from Parrott to the media, cell phone tracking records indicate Maddula walked from the 2000 block of Ridge Avenue to Wilmette Harbor between 12:15 a.m. and 1:07 a.m., when his cell phone signal stopped. Parrott said the Evanston Police believe Maddula entered the west side of the harbor, likely between the far boat slips and fencing, based on where his body was found. He told The Daily on Monday that it was possible Maddula fell into the harbor while attempting to urinate, since he was found with his pants unzipped. He also said the police are no longer looking for evidence from video surveillance. Due to lighting, Parrott said cameras from the nearby Baha’i Temple did not reveal viable images of the area where Maddula was believed to have fallen into

HealthCare gives $167 million By JUNNIE KWON
the daily northwestern
Northwestern Memorial HealthCare gave the University the largest grant it has ever given to any institution, according to Crain’s Chicago Business. In an agreement signed Sept. 1, the health network agreed to give Northwestern $167 million and additional ongoing funding toward developing new clinical programs, expanding research at the Feinberg School of Medicine and hiring top scientists. These projects are part of a larger strategic plan, Northwestern Medicine, which includes the construction of new research facilities and improved patient care, according to a University news release. Northwestern Medicine is the result of several years of planning by Feinberg, Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation and Northwestern Memorial HealthCare. The University announced the three institutions pledged a total of $1 billion toward carrying out the plan, which would create “a leading medical research enterprise” on the former site of the

Morton Schapiro called developing a top research base “imperative” to improving patients’ lives. “We are committed to ensuring that Northwestern University and the Feinberg School continue to be leaders in biomedical research and education,” he said in the release. Although the health network and the University are separate organizations, they have maintained a collaborative relationship. The health network is the parent corporation of Northwestern Memorial Hospital, which is the primary teaching hospital for Feinberg. Many of the hospital’s physicians are also professors at the school. “By expanding the scale and type of research space available on our Chicago campus, the University, the medical school and our affiliated physicians and hospitals will be able to retain and attract world-class scientists, clinicians and trainees for the benefit of patients everywhere,” Dean Harrison, president and CEO of Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, said in the release. junniekwon2015@u.northwestern.edu
City releases report on assisting low-income residents By JIA YOU
the daily northwestern
Evanston released a draft report Friday looking into the city’s use of federal grants to meet community development needs. The consolidated annual performance and evaluation report also proposes key changes to the city’s Consolidated Action Plan, a five-year plan outlining the city’s priorities in using funds from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development. Evanston spent a total of $2,509,025 in HUD funds to assist low- and moderateincome residents during the past year, according to the report. The funding consists of the Community Development Block Grant, Emergency Solutions Grant and HOME Investment Partnerships Program grants for fiscal year 2012, as well as a second allocation of 2011 ESG funds. The city received more HUD grants
Serving the University and Evanston since 1881
than it had planned for, city grant administrator Sarah Flax said. The city used the grants to achieve three goals: providing decent housing for residents, supplying a suitable living environment and expanding economic opportunities. Decent housing took up 61 percent of spending, 20 percent went toward providing a suitable living environment for residents, and 4 percent was used for economic opportunities. The remaining
14 percent went toward administration and planning expenses. The entitlement funded senior services, 25 affordable housing units and public improvement projects such as graffiti removal. Though the city is meeting the quantitative goals outlined in the consolidated plan, Flax said challenges abound given the economy. “We’ve been general doing well in terms of numbers,” she said. “The challenge is:
Are you really making progress everywhere? ...We can make our numerical goals, but have we solved all the problems? Not necessarily.” Affordable housing and unemployment remain “ongoing” challenges facing low- and moderate-income residents, Flax said. Ald.

Around Town Q&A: ‘Parenthood’ actress Tina Lifford Former Evanston resident Tina Lifford, who plays Renee Trussell on NBC’s “Parenthood,” recently returned to the city to showcase “The Circle,” a play she wrote. When Lifford was 12, she moved from Evanston to California in order to begin her acting career. She would go on to star in films alongside actors such as Clint Eastwood. Lifford talked to The Daily about how her upbringing in Evanston influenced her acting career, as well as her take on spiritual wellness.
THE DAILY: The play you authored, “The Circle,” ... involves seven diverse women who share their life’s troubles ranging from dealing with Alzheimer’s disease to coming to grips with sexual orientation. At one point, one of the actors shouts, “I am enough!” What point are you trying to get across? LIFFORD: That in our society, we all have been left to manage our hurts, dramas, traumas, upsets and disappointments. And most often because our society does not talk about these things, most people don’t know how to navigate what I call the choppy waters of life and a lot of times when you can’t see yourself in another person you feel alone or isolated.
THE DAILY NORTHWESTERN: As a Hollywood actress starring in shows with famous actors such as Clint Eastwood and most recently in NBC’s television series “Parenthood,” how would you describe your progression in life since you were raised in Evanston? TINA LIFFORD: Evanston gave me a foundation that I refer to as community. My parents were attentive, loving parents. In our neighborhood and community, there really was a sense of community. All the children were being reared by all of our adults. It gave us a sense of security and belonging, and it was okay for us to dream and we were encouraged to do so.
THE DAILY: What were your most memorable childhood experiences being raised in the first black family on Greenleaf Street and Fowler Avenue in Evanston? LIFFORD: We oftentimes slept with doors unlocked. We would forget to lock doors, and we would forget to close the door particularly on a hot night. That spoke to a community that felt safe within itself. And the (neighbors) next door, they were a white family. I never experienced them as being “other,” they were just white. They were kind. They liked us, we liked them. And then I remember how free we’d be, the way in which we kids would entertain ourselves endlessly by playing softball in fields or by playing

Seven Up in our basement, constantly entertaining ourselves through play. THE DAILY: In your book “The Little Book of BIG LIES and TRUTHS That Set You Free,” you describe your own experiences concerning inner wellness, including your relationships and sudden endings to them. You describe many of these past pains as “vampires.” Can you explain that concept? LIFFORD: A vampire is an entity that’s not human that sucks the lifeblood from us, right? ... So the whole point of “The Little Book of BIG LIES” is being able to recognize how the things that have happened in our lives, when we don’t process them they can take on their own life their own energy... THE DAILY: And lastly, how have you felt starring as the mean grandmother on NBC’s television series, “Parenthood”? LIFFORD: Well, I love it because it’s so different from who I really am. Here I am doing all of this heart work helping people to connect with themselves. Playing a hard-hearted … woman, grandmother and mother-in-law, I love that because it just means I’m acting, and I love acting.

Police Blotter Chicago resident punches police officer at Buffalo Wild Wings
A 27-year-old Chicago resident was arrested Saturday around 10:15 p.m. at Buffalo Wild Wings, 1741 Maple Ave. for bothering patrons and assaulting a police officer. Restaurant management reported to Evanston Police that a man was disturbing customers and flipping open and closing a pocket knife, EPD Cmdr. Jay Parrott said. Police officers arrived on the scene, and began to escort the man off the location. Officers searched for the pocket knife, but the man pulled
away and shouted, “Don’t touch me.” The man later punched the officer in the head and spat on his face. That officer was sent to Evanston Hospital, while the man was placed into custody. The man was charged with two felony counts of aggravated battery, two misdemeanor counts of trespassing and resisting a police officer. The man is scheduled to appear in court March 7, Parrott said.
Shots fired, vehicles hit in Evanston
EPD officers responded to a call around 9:41 p.m. Monday in the 1300 block of Fowler Avenue, where
bullet holes were discovered in two vehicles. Officers located the two vehicles after arriving on scene and discovered one bullet hole in each of the cars, a 2010 and a 2006 Chevrolet. After speaking with witnesses, police officers gathered details. Two men were reportedly arguing when one man took out a gun and fired three shots in the direction of the cars. The man then fled the area northbound on foot. Vehicles were seen speeding away but not verified to be related to the incident, Parrott said. — Ina Yang

On Campus Medill remembers alum, Board of Advisers member Award-winning broadcaster and Medill Board of Advisers member Dillon Smith (BSJ ’63, MSJ ’64) was a well-known editorial director at NBC Chicago, but according to a long time friend Robert Feder (BSJ ’78), there was much more to Smith than his job. “Even after he retired, he remained so active and so interested in what was going on here,” said Feder, a media critic at Time Out Chicago. “He really was a pillar of the journalism community.” Smith, 71, passed away Friday at his home in Naples, Fla. A memorial mass will be held 10 a.m. Thursday at Old St. Patrick’s Church, 700 W. Adams St., in Chicago, according to a Medill news release. Smith’s 15 years of work at NBC Chicago earned him the Chicago Emmy Award for outstanding achievement in editorials for five consecutive years, Feder wrote in his media blog Tuesday on Time Out Chicago. His presentations on issues on behalf of NBC Chicago in the 1970s, resulted in changes in various laws, including one prohibiting supermarkets from selling meat after 6 p.m. or on Sundays and another banning right turns on red lights, Feder’s post said. Feder said Smith’s success in editorials stemmed from the combination of his education in law and the research he put into his pieces.
“He built the case the way a lawyer would, piece by piece and step by step,” Feder said. “By the time he reached his conclusion, he made a very persuasive argument.” During his 15 years at NBC Chicago, Smith also served as program director. According to the Medill news release, he was instrumental in I think he’ll be the development of the remembered station’s “On Stage on 5,” a series of theatribest through his cal productions, and the “You” magazine involvement program, which won with Medill Emmy awards three and his great years in a row. Smith generosity in so also established Dillon Smith Communications many ways. in 1984, which produced television programming, Roger Boye, the release said. Medill professor In addition to his work in Chicago, Smith gave time to the Medill School of Journalism, Media, Integrated Marketing Communications after his graduation from its undergraduate and graduate programs. He served as the second president of the Medill Alumni Association and was the first editor of Medill Magazine, then known as The Medillian, said Medill Prof. Roger Boye. Smith also helped start the Ben Baldwin Scholarship Fund,
which gives students going on Journalism Residency the option to apply for a grant to aid in their finances. He was also a member of the Medill Hall of Achievement. “I think he’ll be remembered best through his involvement with Medill and his great generosity in so many ways,” Boye said. “There’s a lot of things we still have going here at Medill that he got started.” Medill Dean Brad Hamm praised Smith’s dedication to Medill and Northwestern in an email. “I just met with Dillon a month ago in Naples, and we spent much of the day together,” Hamm wrote. “His devotion to Medill and Northwestern was incredible. Those of us who are part of the Medill family will miss spending time with Dillon on his many visits back to campus and witnessing his great love for the school and the University.” Smith’s fellow board member and Medill classmate Bob Eaton (BSJ ’63) said Smith was very influential during the board’s meetings. “He was very secure in who he was and what he had done and not afraid to speak up or to challenge things, and I think that that’s sometimes too rare in meetings,” Eaton said. Feder said Smith had a lifelong passion for journalism, which drew him to do so much work on behalf of Medill. “He remained plugged into everything,” Feder said. “He really loved it. He lived it and breathed it and it was a part of his life right up to the end.”
Fluke to campus as its Winter Quarter speaker, the organization announced Monday. Fluke, a Georgetown Law graduate, first gained national attention when, in response to her Congressional testimony on the importance of affordable access to birth control last February, Rush Limbaugh called her a “slut” and a “prostitute” on the Feb. 29 edition of his radio show. She parlayed the ensuing
controversy into a nine-month tour as a surrogate for President Barack Obama, including a speaking gig at the 2012 Democratic National Convention. “Some of you may remember that earlier this year, Republicans shut me out of a hearing on contraception,” Fluke said Sept. 5 at the DNC. “In fact, on that panel, they didn’t hear from a single woman, even though they
were debating an issue that affects nearly every woman. Because it happened in Congress, people noticed. But it happens all the time. Too many women are shut out and silenced.” Fluke will speak March 11 at 7 p.m. in Annenberg Hall. Tickets for the speech will be free at the door.

Rethinking military policy after Afghanistan War JONATHAN KAMEL
DAILY COLUMNIST
After more than a decade at war, American troops are finally coming home from Afghanistan with combat missions expected to be complete by 2014. Similarly, the last American troops left Iraq in December of 2011 with great sighs of relief from military families and those who supported the war in Washington. The ending of these two Middle East wars will bring closure and a period of reflection for the American military. It is important that we as a nation learn from the mistakes that propelled these wars into action and for our leaders to rethink what circumstances merit the full price of war. The invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq were popularwith the American people in 2001 and 2003 respectively, yet as they wore on they became increasingly problematic and revealed many weaknesses in American foreign policy. It is easy to blame the former President George W. Bush and his advisers for quick and irrational decisions made to go to war with both of these countries. Yet 10 years ago, the culture in America was different. Americans were still hurting from
the traumatic events of 9/11, and our sense of national security was gone. Bush began a universal “War on Terror� to restore a sense of national confidence and to avenge the deaths of Americans on native soil. Cloaked in this campaign of revenge was a policy Bush yearned to achieve: ridding the world of totalitarian governments and spreading the superior American virtues of democracy to fight terrorism and Islamic fundamentalism. This idea of American exceptionalism had existed for centuries. We had entered many wars before to “make the world safe for democracy,� yet in Afghanistan and Iraq these motives did not click. We entered Iraq to destroy the weapons of mass destruction that Saddam Hussein was supposedly hiding, yet none were to be found. In both Iraq and Afghanistan, American military forces swiftly overwhelmed the opposition and took control of the country. Yet, they were then charged with occupying foreign soil and rebuilding broken governments. While we overthrew Saddam in Baghdad and restructured the government in Kabul, the region became no safer for democracy, and American soldiers were constantly at risk from terrorist attacks or sectarian violence. It was as if Bush and his counterparts planned everything up until the invasion and then had no clue what to do from there. It proved difficult to change the culture and overcome ethnic conflicts in both
Afghanistan and Iraq. Looking back on the Bush wars, it is obvious these conflicts were not all about spreading democracy or fighting terrorism. If so, American troops would have found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and killed Osama Bin Laden years before This idea of his eventual murder. Another motive for American going to war was to exceptionalism ensure stability in an had existed for oil-rich region that is important to American centuries. We energy needs, but it is had entered the complex of American exceptionalism many wars that warrants much of before to “make the blame. the world safe for Republicans and Bush during the democracy,� ... early-to-mid-2000s believed the only way the United States could maintain its hegemony in the world was through military conflict. In their eyes, war was often the solution to domestic problems and provided unity in an era of uncertainty. Yet this strategy backfired under Bush, as the two wars caused a ballooning deficit, vast American casualties, and less faith in the government. In the age of Obama, the mistakes made
“
by Bush’s administration have largely been avoided. Obama has formed a new American foreign policy which combines negotiations, direct monetary aid, drone attacks and cyber manipulation in place of the heavy handed military policies of the past. Maintaining American exceptionalism is no longer the principal target of the nation’s foreign policy. Obama and his aides realize in a modern global dynamic, the image of the United States as a police captain is no longer beneficial or productive. War is no longer the primary option of the current administration, but the last resort in a series of processes that aim to prevent deploying American troops. Obama has taken a hands-off approach in supporting the rebellion in Syria or the many revolts during the Arab Spring, opting to use American aid or the support of allies to achieve the desired result. While some may cry that America is forfeiting its position as world superpower by not wielding “overwhelming force� as it had in the past, the deficit will shrink and lives will be saved under this refined foreign policy. I don’t know about you, but I prefer the latter over a meaningless title that has worn down this nation for decades. Jonathan Kamel is a Weinberg freshman.

American political parties don’t offer enough choice DAN RYAN
DAILY COLUMNIST
The other day, I was filling out a psychological survey when I arrived at question I couldn’t answer: “Are you a Democrat or are you a Republican?� Unfortunately for whomever needed my response to meet their quota, the site wouldn’t accept incomplete forms, and so I breathed a wordless apology to no one in particular and closed my laptop. But I was left wondering a question of my own: “How many other people out there are, like me, disgusted with the antics of both our parties to the point of rejecting either label?� I can only hope the answer is many because I fear the two-party system we have in place is broken beyond repair. The problem should be obvious from the start: With the dynamic nature of today’s world, and the evolving opinions of a new generation, two parties are not enough to encompass the many complex views the
The Drawing Board
average person may have. I support gay marriage and lower taxes. Who’s representing me? It goes far beyond a simple lack of representation, however. With outlets like Fox News and MSNBC skewing facts and spitting hate on both sides of the aisle, it seems to many people that Washington is entertainment rather than substance. And this distracts from the many serious problems we face in the world. But it’s becoming increasingly obvious that our system is unprepared to meet the simplest of challenges. Even when this Congress manages to pass legislation to get something done, and that is a rather big “if,� the solutions are pathetically underwhelming. The fiscal cliff fiasco, for example, went to the eleventh hour before our governing body decided to simply kick the can down the road. No lasting changes were implemented, and no problems were solved. And in 2009, when the nation was debating the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare for short), the bill went back and forth for so long, suffering a horrifying number of changes made in the name of compromise, that the final product might actually do more harm than good. I talked to someone
in the Treasury Department, tasked with the nitty-gritty implementation of the PPACA, who said that the bill is an “unrecognizable Frankenstein-monster and a nightmare of bureaucracy.� What about any of this is acceptable behavior for the U.S. government? At some point, we are also going to have to come to grips with global warming, a decaying infrastructure, a flawed education system and whatever other challenges the next 20 years will present. So, with that in mind, let me ask you this: Do you believe that Democrats and Republicans, as constructed, are capable of leading us toward meaningful resolutions to these issues by working together? This relentless belief in a party’s ideology has trickled down to constituents, as well. How many people do you know who march in lockstep with their party? People who take to Facebook to warn of the evils of the other side? Who have a fit if their candidate loses and makes comments about moving to Canada because of how the other party is going to ruin the country? I truly believe there are people I know who support their political party over the United States. Or at least carry on as though they do.
by Susan Du
All of this is ridiculous, and a change would be welcome for many. But how to approach the issue? Now, I understand that the birth of one or more parties is not necessarily the answer — there are plenty of governments that use the coalition style that have issues of their own. However, the two dominant parties in the U.S. cannot continue to operate as they do. Their platforms seem more radical every election cycle, and they have shown no willingness to compromise on any key issue. The introduction of a moderate party might provide the shake up the system needs by forcing the left and right to lean more towards the middle — and compromise — rather than cater to their radical voter base. Perhaps it destroys the two parties we know and gives rise to a center-left and center-right parties. Either outcome is preferable to listening to Mitch McConnell and Barack Obama give lip service to compromise while harboring no intention of following through. Dan Ryan is a Weinberg junior.

The city would also allocate $100,000 uncommitted funds to an economic development fund to assist projects that further the city’s economic development goals, such as loans to for-profit businesses, facade improvement grants and technical assistance to micro-enterprises. The proposal stemmed from the city’s positive experiences with loans for the bar Ward Eight and Chicago’s Home of Chicken and Waffles, Flax said.

In a 2009 blog post on Evanston Now, Grover said, “This is the time to change the tone of the discourse in Evanston.� She said Tuesday that it has indeed changed since she first wrote that. Out with thinking about a “town-gown� relationship, in with thinking of a University-city partnership, she said. Grover cited her work with NU athletics to coordinate sporting events, as well as Mayor Elizabeth Tisdahl and University President Morton Schapiro’s ability to resolve issues before they become much more serious. “It’s like there’s this mayor-presidential hotline,� she said. “And it’s well used.� One of the highlights of Grover’s first term include the passing of a ban on using handheld devices while driving, which she said brought

He said there was no sign of Maddula on the Coast Guard’s security cameras in the area either. “We’re done,� Parrott said. “No cameras cover that area of the harbor.� The media statement also said police have explored the option of recovering data from Maddula’s iPhone, which was recovered on his body. The statement said they are continuing to explore this option, but it is not a likely lead due to the water damage the phone sustained.

The email expressed the University’s condolences to Maddula’s family and friends and reminded students of available resources on campus to help with concerns surrounding substance abuse. “This should be a time for all of us to learn from the most difficult of losses, to reflect on what each of us can do to reduce harmful behavior and to take care of each other,� Telles-Irvin wrote in the email. czak15@u.northwestern.edu

heightened awareness to distracted driving. In her next term, Grover hopes to pass a ban on handsfree devices. The 7th Ward alderman also noted the selection of city manager Wally Bobkiewicz, who she said brings forward-looking solutions to addressing city finances and developing an innovative city. In her next four years as aldermen, Grover said she wants to change the tone of the discourse at City Council meetings. This year, Grover said she has resolved to calling out bullying that takes place during meetings. “There are polite and kind ways to take up issues and to be a passionate advocate that are entirely consistent with civil discourse and respect for everyone,� Grover said. Among other issues, Grover said she also wants the city and the University to work together to ease the burden on businesses affected by the recently announced Chicago Cubs-NU partnership. “I gotta tell you, there’s no better place to do this kind of work than in Evanston,� Grover said.

Rimkus, Cats heading to Indiana By JOHN PASCHALL
the daily northwestern
“Fight as a fist, not five fingers.” That’s the mentality Northwestern will take with them when they compete in the Big Ten Championships this week in Bloomington, Ind. While the odds are stacked against them for winning a Big Ten title as a team because of their smaller roster size, the Wildcats are out to prove that last year’s ninth place finish at the Big Ten Championships was a fluke to the conference, as well as themselves. “We weren’t happy with how last year ended,” junior co-captain Tim Smith said. “It showed in our motivation this year. We wanted to prove to ourselves that we could finish strong and that we could be a factor in the Big Ten.” One of the main reasons for NU’s disappointing performance last year was the team’s morning swims during preliminaries. The Cats were unable to put up fast times, which resulted in few opportunities to score points in Championship or B Finals. Coach Jarod Schroeder made some adjustments this year to their practice regimen and has his team working off the blocks every three days to keep them in a racing mode. “The guys are certainly aware that they have to get it done in the morning,” Schroeder said. “Last year we did some wake-up swims that were optional. I’m going to mandate that they do that the first couple days of the meet so they are used to waking their body up at 7 instead of 9.” NU must also work on its ability to bounce back from poor swims. The team pointed to a bad first relay in last year’s meet as to why they struggled during the four-day meet. That performance ended up snowballing amongst the squad and affecting everyone’s racing. Senior co-captain Charlie Rimkus said the team frequently talks about last

year’s experience in order to improve for this year. “We’ve let one or two bad swims dictate the mood and the attitude for the rest of the meet,” Rimkus said. “People realize now that we can’t do that. We have to be there for people after their races. You don’t always have to tell them it was a great swim if it wasn’t. It’s better to tell them ‘Hey, keep your head up,’ or, ‘On to the next one.’” One advantage NU does have is its experienced group of freshmen. Distance freestyler Jordan Wilimovsky won the 1,500-meter freestyle at the USA Swimming Junior National Championships in record-
setting fashion. Backstroker Grant Halsall won three medals at the Commonwealth Youth Games as his team’s captain and is the fastest 18-and-under backstroker in his home country of the United Kingdom. Breaststroker Van Donkersgoed finished fifth in the 200yard breaststroke at the 2010 Junior Nationals. Smith said the experience these young swimmers bring into this meet will be valuable. “It’ll definitely keep them calm,” Smith said. “I remember I was pretty intimidated at my first Big Tens. Hopefully they can just realize that it’s just another meet we do and just swim and
feel good. It’ll allow them to keep their heads straight and not worry about all the big names there.” Schroeder and Rimkus believe that previous NU teams might have been a little intimidated by the magnitude of the meet, but the senior said he won’t allow his team to lose its swagger. “We have to think, ‘I have every right to be here as much as the guy from Indiana with the robe and the big crowd,’” Rimkus said. “Taking on that underdog role and being a fighter in the pool has really helped us in the past and will help us at this meet.” johnpaschall2014@u.northwestern.edu
Dumas spills on Schiller, Olympics By ABBBEY CHASE
the daily northwestern
Though she is only a sophomore, Courtney Dumas has already made her mark on Northwestern fencing, finishing 15th in the epee competition at last year’s NCAA Championships, earning her first top-eight finish at a Division I event earlier this season and winning 80 percent of her bouts this season. The Daily caught up with Dumas to talk about how she got her start in fencing, her Olympic aspirations and coach Laurie Schiller’s habits on the road.
DAILY: Is there any reason you chose epee? DUMAS: I started out in foil actually and wasn’t very good at it. My style of fencing just suited epee better. I was tall and I liked to counterattack, and it was hard for people to get around that a lot when I was younger, so I just went with it. DAILY: Did you play any other sports
NU will send one to NCAAs By ANNA KOTTENSTETTE
Fencing
THE DAILY: How did you first get into fencing? COURTNEY DUMAS: My uncle fenced in college, and he, years back, took me to a Junior Olympic tournament when it was held in Cleveland. I remember sitting there watching Courtney Hurley fence and saying that I wanted to be able to do that. My brother and sister were off in the corner looking at the different swords, but I was really in awe of the sport. It was just so different from anything I’d ever done, and I just knew I wanted to do that.

ROAD TO RIO? Sophomore Courtney Dumas competes during a dual. Dumas finished 15th during last year’s NCAA Championships, and could potentially represent the United States at the 2016 Olympics.
growing up? DUMAS: I was 12, almost 13, when I started fencing, and believe it or not, there’s youth 10 events so people start a lot earlier, sometimes as early as 4. I was behind the game when I started so I had to make up a little bit of ground with that. I also played volleyball, basketball and softball at the time. DAILY: What is your favorite memory on the strip at this point in your career? DUMAS: There are a couple. One definitely was against Courtney Hurley this year when I beat her. I was down 4-2 with 13 seconds left and came back and tied it up and then won in overtime. This year when I made my first final-eight in Division I when I had to go through Anna
Van Brummen, who’s at Princeton, and I beat (current U.S. No. 5) Lindsay Campbell right after that. That moment when I made the top eight was so exhilarating because I hadn’t expected it at all. DAILY: So will we be seeing you in Rio in 2016? DUMAS: I’m hoping. We’ll see how it goes. The April before the Olympics, the team is chosen, and it’s a combination of your four best domestic results and I believe two international results. It’s a process to go out there and do that, but that’s the goal. Right now I’m 12th on the list, so we’ll see. I was 40-something before London. Going into this year, I was 42nd on the list and with my finishes, I’ve jumped all the way to 12th.
DAILY: Who are some of your favorite athletes? DUMAS: I’ve looked at what (Olympic gold-medalist) Mariel Zagunis does for determination. She just goes out there and works so hard and competes at every international event she can get out there for. Her going out there and fencing has just brought so much life to the sport. So many more people are seeing the sport just from her results. She didn’t mean to bring viewers to the sport. She just went out there. She’s someone that I really look up to. As far as other athletes, Michael Phelps is one of my favorite athletes to watch how he competes, how hard he works. It’s so much fun to watch the guy swim. DAILY: Finally, what’s something we don’t know about coach Laurie Schiller? DUMAS: He’s just a funny guy. He has these stacks of newspapers that he hasn’t gotten the chance to read throughout the week and he reads them all on our trips. He has these stacks everywhere of 10 different newspapers. He’s funny; he’ll be doing notes on the bus and he’s trying to figure out everything, and even if he’s lost his voice, he’s still trying to scream at the top of his lungs trying to coach us. He goes above and beyond to make sure that we’re enjoying ourselves and doing the best that we can. DAILY: Is it true that he is a Civil War re-enactor? DUMAS: Oh, he is. abigailchase2015@u.northwestern.edu
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — As All-Big Ten Honoree Taylor Reynolds sprinted the final stretch of the 100-yard freestyle race, the sight of her coaches and teammates gave her all the “oomph” she needed. After finishing fifth in the 50-yard freestyle and breaking the Northwestern record with a time of 22.44 seconds, Reynolds was determined to stand higher on the Big Ten placing podium. Reynolds narrowly made the cut into the ‘A’ final heat with a time of 49.29 seconds, 0.02 seconds ahead of the first ‘B’ heat swimmer. As she mounted the blocks for her final individual Wildcat swim, NU was in 9th place overall and in desperate need of a morale boost. “I was disappointed in myself after the 50 for not scoring as much as I should have for the team so coming back and getting the job done in the 100 was really satisfying,” Reynolds said. Reynolds finished second overall in the 100-yard freestyle with a career-best time of 48.81 seconds, only .07 seconds behind the first place finisher. The close race had NU fans on their feet and allowed the team to earn much needed points that helped propel them to an eighth place overall finish. Reynolds will be the only team member representing NU at the NCAA Championships meet in late March, swimming in both the 50- and 100-yard freestyle races. Though the team’s overall finish lacks luster, the Cats are eager to begin preparing for next year. Seconds after the final relay, coach Jimmy Tierney was already looking ahead to Big Ten Championships of 2014. “I want to get back next year and get better,” Tierney said. “That’s a point we made to the team.” Sophomore Valerie Nubbe swam in three events at the championships and achieved career-best times in each. Freshman Chelsea Soderholm also had three personal best times. “A lot of people had personal records, so each of those races got the team fired up and really excited,” Tierney said. “We’re young, but we’re going to be good.” Next year, the Cats will welcome a recruiting class of at least nine or 10 swimmers. Though the seniors will no longer be with their underclassmen teammates for 20-plus hours a week, their legacy will undoubtedly linger. “I’m awfully proud of all the seniors,” Tierney said. “We’ll certainly miss their leadership, but the younger group has a good vision thanks to them.” Though the season has not yet ended for Reynolds, she too is anxiously anticipating her younger teammates’ future accomplishments. “I’m excited for them,” Reynolds said. “They’ve set themselves up really well, and I think they’ll be a lot of fun to watch next year. It’s been a good run.” annakottenstette2014@u.northwestern.edu
