NU apologizes after official mocks parents, counselors
The University apologized Wednesday morning for a fake internal database that mocked parents and guidance counselors of Northwestern applicants. Screenshots of the phony classification system and email correspondence about it were posted earlier this week on admissions message board College Confidential. The images show Michael Mills, associate provost for university enrollment, sharing with more than two dozen colleagues a made-up program in which NU applicants are sorted by their parents’ and guidance counselors’ apparent gripes about admissions decisions. The categorizations include “Go to $%%!”, “I’ll call my %$^&ing Senator,” “Who’s your boss?” and “I know Pat Ryan!” — the NU trustee (Weinberg ‘59) after which Ryan Field and Welsh-Ryan Arena are named. “It was an ill-advised attempt at
humor by a member of our staff,” University spokesman Al Cubbage said in a statement. “It was an internal email that misguidedly made fun of the abrasive and threatening calls and emails our admission office occasionally gets from irate parents and counselors about our admissions decisions. Northwestern strives to treat all our admission applicants respectfully and appropriately. This was an error and we apologize for it.” In an April 26 email shown in the screenshots, Mills promoted the database to his coworkers, including Christopher Watson, dean of undergraduate admission. “I’m taking suggestions for a new field I’ve created, called ‘Angry Calls from Counselors and Parents,’” Mills wrote. “Be sure to check out the Custom Values already there…” As of 11 a.m. Wednesday, the screenshots were no longer on College Confidential. Cubbage declined to comment further. — Patrick Svitek

After repeated calls for improved mental health services on campus, Student Affairs has approved the funding of three additional therapists for Counseling and Psychological Services next academic year. The Undergraduate Budget Priorities Committee announced the additional funding in an email to all students Tuesday. CAPS received as many new positions
this year as Student Affairs funded in the last three years combined. John Dunkle, executive director of CAPS, said he has been asking for additional staff since 2010. Student pressure for more staff at CAPS elevated this year after the deaths of three students, including the suicides of Weinberg junior Alyssa Weaver and McCormick sophomore Dmitri Teplov. The changes to CAPS come as a record number of Northwestern students are seeking out its mental health services. For the first time ever, more than 2,000 students have used CAPS this academic year, and Spring Quarter isn’t over yet.
The annual number of students accessing CAPS increased this year by about 7 percent compared to last year and has steadily risen since 2010, Dunkle said. “I’m really pleased, to be honest,” said Patricia Telles-Irvin, vice president of student affairs, about the number of students using mental health services. “It’s an incredibly important resource on campus that students should use.” Dunkle said he thinks the increasing number of students accessing mental health services is in line with national trends and rising figures at schools » See BUDGET, page 6

Senate OKs 2 exec spots; diversity post still empty By SOPHIA BOLLAG

Hillary Back/The Daily Northwestern
CHIEF CONFIRMED SESP junior David Harris is sworn in as chief of staff at an Associated Student Government meeting Wednesday. Julia Watson was also confirmed for a cabinet position as the public relations vice president.
Serving the University and Evanston since 1881
Associated Student Government’s top diversity post will remain vacant through the summer after the latest nominee withdrew early Wednesday ahead of the weekly Senate meeting. Senate filled two other vacancies in the cabinet at the meeting. The position of diversity and inclusion associate vice president was the subject of controversy three weeks ago when Senate rejected Medill sophomore Stephen Piotrkowski due to concerns about his qualifications and ability to connect with multicultural groups on campus. After Piotrkowski was blocked, ASG began the search for a new nominee, up for confirmation Wednesday. An ASG committee chose Weinberg junior Aanchal Narang, but she told top ASG officials early Wednesday that she couldn’t take on the position, citing its time commitment. “She called me ... and she was kind of distraught,” executive vice president Alex Van Atta said. “She realized she wasn’t going to be able to dedicate the amount of time she knew the position required.” Van Atta, a McCormick junior, said Narang may have been worried about facing the same aggressive
questioning Piotrkowski did, but Van Atta did not think it influenced her decision. “I think it would be hard not to take it into consideration,” he said. With the post empty, student life vice president Anna Kottenstette and academic vice president Sofia Sami will oversee the diversity and inclusion committee for the rest of the academic year and summer. Sami said although she understands why someone may pass on the position, she was disappointed Narang withdrew from consideration. “It was an unfortunate circumstance,” said Sami, a Weinberg junior. “That’s how we all felt.” Kottenstette said although the empty position will be challenging for everyone in ASG, she and Sami will work to ensure the committee functions without a leader. “Moving through the summer, it will be interesting,” said Kottenstette, a Communication junior. “It will be keeping in contact with people over the summer and making sure that projects are being maintained. Obviously it is not an ideal situation for anyone.” Senate quickly confirmed SESP junior David Harris as chief of staff and and Weinberg sophomore Julia Watson as public relations vice president. At the same meeting where Senate
“
It was an unfortunate circumstance. That’s how we all felt. Sofia Sami, academic vice president
rejected Piotrkowski for the diversity post, it also denied Watson for public relations vice president. Members of ASG attributed the failed confirmation to lasting tension from a close presidential election in which Weinberg junior Ani Ajith beat Harris. Watson was Ajith’s campaign manager, and some senators thought she was chosen over Harris for the public relations position for political reasons. Another nominee, Weinberg junior Stephanie Hong, was rejected for chief of staff in what some senators also called a political move. When Watson was renominated for public relations vice president Wednesday, senators asked her only five questions and did not question Harris. At the first nominations meeting, debate and questioning over the two positions lasted about an hour. Senators also confirmed SESP freshman Chris Harlow as the director of residential life, who will work under Kottenstette. sophiabollag2016@u.northwestern.edu

Project organizers and sponsors gathered Wednesday evening at the Evanston History Center, 225 Greenwood St., to celebrate the progress of Evanston150 and learn about the different projects. Andy’s spokesman Gary Silbar announced “the Evanston150� frozen custard will be available for purchase in Andy’s downtown Evanston location starting June 1. The frozen treat will consist of Andy’s vanilla custard, strawberries, pretzels and peanut butter, Silbar said. An undetermined portion of the proceeds from the custard’s sale will go to Evanston150. “What better way for Andy’s to salute Evanston’s sesquicentennial than creating a treat for this vibrant community,� Andy’s president Andy Kuntz said in a news release.

Police Blotter Chicago woman punches coworker, flees from scene of crime
A Chicago woman attacked her coworker Tuesday at a south Evanston business, police said. The woman, 55, got in an argument with her 55-year-old male coworker regarding a piece of equipment, Evanston Police Cmdr. Jay Parrott said. The argument escalated, and the woman struck the right side of the man’s face with a closed fist, Parrott said. Parrott said the man had no sign of visible injury and did not need medical attention. Police did not find the woman upon arrival at the business in the 300 block of Howard Street, which Parrott declined to identify.

On Campus New ASG study abroad, student guides delayed
Battle of the Chefs
Sollers told host Bob Costas the suit seeks declarations that the consent decree was unlawful and that the NCAA acted unlawfully. It also seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.
Associated Student Government will delay the release of “unofficial� online guides for Northwestern students and for study abroad. The two services were slated to launch at the end of this quarter. The student guide links users to underutilized services and provides littleknown NU tips based on interviews with students and campus leaders, while the study abroad guide is a compilation of write-ups and quotes about students’ experiences abroad. Weinberg sophomore Noah Kane said a shortage in services committee members caused the delay after he was confirmed May 8 as ASG services vice president. “That ended up really setting back the timeline for this project,� Kane said, adding that the services committee has nevertheless made “significant progress� on the guides. He said the unofficial student guide has already been written and designed. “The progress that we still have to make is mostly technical stuff,� he said. ASG hopes to launch the student guide and study abroad guide by Fall Quarter, in time for new students to access them. Kane said he believes no matter when the projects are launched, there will always be students looking for advice. Incoming freshman Bethany Ao said she would use the online student guide. “It’s always more helpful to read stuff that’s written by other students because that gives more of an honest mindset,� she said. Kane said he has recently recruited committee members back to the original number and looked for students with computer science experience to “reshape� the group. Earlier this year, ASG launched CabCorner, a cab-sharing service, and BookSwap, a bookselling service. Kane said he hopes to promote these sites more to gain users. “There’s sort of a chicken-and-egg dilemma,� he said. “Book buyers want book sellers, book sellers want book buyers. You need to build a user base.�

Defending beliefs is always beneficial JONATHAN KAMEL
DAILY COLUMNIST @jonathankamel
I came to Northwestern this fall wanting to make my mark on campus and define myself in something I like to do. I began reading The Daily in Fall Quarter and found the opinion section to be the most engaging part of the publication. In October, I submitted a response to Sydney Zink’s op-ed piece on affirmative action, and luckily it was published. After seeing my name in print, I felt an expected sense of pride but also an appreciation that my voice was being heard on campus. I decided to apply to be a columnist over Winter Break to provide a voice for myself and for my fellow members of the class of 2016. Of all the applications I filled out this past year, deciding to become a columnist for the past two quarters was the best decision I made all year. While researching and then composing a 700-word piece each week on top of regular course work has provided a challenge, I will end my freshman year as a different person because of it. From writing on topics that I am passionate about, namely Israel and the environment, I found an inner voice that will guide me in my future years at Northwestern.
I found it especially important to write about current events that were being discussed at length in the news or propose ideas, like a carbon tax, that I feel are necessary to advance our society. In many of my columns I stood up for what I believed was right on a certain issue, whether it was involvement in Syria or standing strong against a Holocaust denier on campus. It didn’t matter if I was speaking for the minority of students or the majority, just that I was staying true to myself and where I come from. Some of my columns attracted responses from individual students, groups on campuses, and fellow columnists that disagreed with my opinions or the evidence I used. I applaud these students for taking the initiative to speak their minds and engage in a discussion through reading my own writing. College campuses are meant to be places of intense debate, conversations and overall educated interactions. This is essentially what the Opinion page is: a place for all students to feel like part of a community and a page where all voices are equal. I commend my fellow columnists who have contributed their own insights on controversial issues on campus or in American society. It takes courage to take a stand that will be analyzed, criticized and argued against by classmates, faculty and even friends. Some of the most heated conversations I’ve had concerning
my own beliefs have been with those who I am closest with. As this may be my last column, I want to emphasize how important it is to remember that at the end of the day we are all One Northwestern. Our differences in perspective and opinOur differences ion make this campus in perspective the diverse intellectual space that we want it and opinion to be. I hope The Daily’s make this Opinion page concampus tinues to be an open the diverse and lively arena for students to voice their intellectual dreams, comment on space that we campus issues, and engage in discussions want it to be. that reach beyond the Northwestern bubble. For me, it has provided all these opportunities and more. Free speech and thought remain the cornerstone of this great nation and university. Without a medium to express our active minds, controversial beliefs and general discontent, we are left up a creek without a paddle.

Spend summer doing what you love MEERA PATEL
DAILY COLUMNIST @soshaloni
Spring Quarter is almost over, leaving a lot of students thinking of what’s next. It’s a common topic to talk about these days: What are you doing this summer? That question leads to further questions, as well as a chance to make judgments based on the answer. Many people have this notion that college kids need to be doing something “to build their resume� every summer. That’s just not true. Of the many students I’ve talked to, only a few of them have said they don’t know what they’re doing or that they’re going home and taking advantage of one of the last years they can do whatever they want. So why do we feel this pressure to squander our last few years of enjoying summer on internships, jobs and classes?
Don’t get me wrong; I know that many of us need to work over the break in order to make some money. I’m not saying that it’s acceptable to validate bumming around at home for a few months because it’s your last chance to do so. But there’s a problem when you feel pressure to do something just because you think everyone else is doing it. It’s important to recognize that we need to do what we want to do, not what we think we should do. For instance, I knew I didn’t want to work at an engineering firm over the summer. I wanted to do something that would help me to explore job opportunities outside my field of study. But this didn’t stop me from thinking that I had to go to Tech Expo and other career fairs just because my friends were. Sure, an engineering firm would look great on my resume. But once I realized I didn’t want or need one, I found a job over the summer doing something that I am genuinely excited about. If you’re doing something that will make you happy, even if it is sitting at home and seeing
Online Buzz What commenters are saying I have empathy for the admissions officers and think this was a hilarious way to blow off steam. Keep the faith, Mr. Mills. — Law 81 In response to: “Northwestern apologizes after leaked emails show admissions official mocking counselors, parents,� submitted 5/29/13
Just because you don’t agree with a national party, does not mean that none of its individual members have any ideas worth thinking about. I’m not specifically talking about D’Souza here, I just mean give people at NU a little credit for having their own thoughts before you go refusing to listen to a word they say. — perspective In response to: “Stier: Ani Ajith’s comments on Dinesh D’Souza event inappropriate,� submitted 5/29/13
Mrs Goldberg, I applaud you, you seem a strong articulate lady who has a very good case against Trump. From the whole of Scotland we wish you the very best of luck! — Lara Brown In response to: “Not your ‘average housewife’: The Evanston grandmother who took on Donald Trump,� submitted 5/28/13
your family, that will help you in the long run. As driven NU students, we lose sight of what’s really important at the end of the day — whatever it is that makes you happy, not what makes other people happy for you. The reality of college is you’re supposed to figure out who you are and what you want to do. If you’re so focused on what you should do or how you should feel, then you’re never going to figure out what you want. Sometimes it takes throwing everything you “should� do out the window and trying something completely new and random for you to work it all out. But if you do go ahead and do an internship, remember that the point is to explore your options and make sure that you’re enjoying yourself. After all, in the long run, what you did with your summer probably won’t change the world. The important thing is if you get something real out of it. Meera Patel is a McCormick sophomore.

similar to NU. The ratio of CAPS staff to students is 1 to 1,245; the average at peer schools is 1 to about 945. The new addition of counselors to CAPS makes NU’s ratio 1 to about 1,000, just above the average. The three new therapists will target different areas of mental health services. One new addition will lead the Question-Persuade-Refer Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Training Program. Dunkle said in the past year, 1,200 members of the NU community have been trained in QPR, including students in Associated Student Government, all first-year Feinberg students and, most recently, all peer advisers. Dunkle said he hopes the clinician will be able to train at least 750 students in the program in the next academic year. More than 60 students using CAPS, many exhibiting suicidal intentions, received hospital attention for mental health issues this academic year, Dunkle said. In addition to the new QPR position, the staff expansion will allow CAPS to hire a new full-time psychiatrist who will reach out to Hispanic and Latino students. Dunkle said the office already has staff members who act as liaisons with African American Student Affairs, Asian/Asian American Student Affairs and the LGBT Resource Center. This expansion follows calls from students for better mental health resources for minority students during discussions about campus diversity and inclusion. CAPS will get a third therapist who specializes in
working with student-athletes, following a request from the athletic department for this service. Dunkle said he is very excited for this new position, although it was not one of the four he initially requested. The original CAPS request to Student Affairs additionally called for a full-time position to lead a peer listening program, something students have advocated for as part of the NU Listens group. Dunkle said although the initiative was not funded this year, he hopes to start a pilot version of the program. The other plan also called for a new position that would allow CAPS to accommodate more students and potentially explore offering long-term therapy options. Currently, students are limited to 12 free sessions. Dunkle said he still hopes to look into potential ways CAPS could do this after hiring the three new staffers. Alex Van Atta, ASG executive vice president and a member of the campus coalition on mental health, called the staff increases “a step in the right direction.” The McCormick junior said he will continue to push for more mental health services, including a peer listening program, as he promised during his ASG campaign. A new Essential NU about mental health services should increase awareness on campus, Van Atta said,. “This is huge news for campus,” Van Atta said. “Looking forward to next year, I’m really optimistic about where campus can go.”

But the Cats saved their best tennis for last, coming within a few sets of upsetting Illinois in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten Tournament. After earning a berth in the NCAA Tournament, NU defeated Wake Forest in spectacular fashion in the first round, punctuated by a tense three-set win by senior Chris Jackman in the deciding match.

NU retains Big Ten dominance
Women’s Tennis
Northwestern finished its season with 20 wins and nine losses, winning the Big Ten Tournament for the 14th time in 15 seasons. The champs overcame Indiana, Nebraska and Michigan in the conference playoffs to earn the crown. In the regular conference season, the Cats lost only to the Cornhuskers and Wolverines, so they sought — and found — redemption in the tournament. When the NCAA Tournament
came around, the team hosted one of 16 regionals across the nation. The Cats reached the round of 16 but lost on a controversial line call against the University of Miami. After the end of the team tournament, senior Linda Abu Mushrefova and junior Nida Hamilton went on to play in the doubles championship tournament, and senior Kate Turvy represented NU in the singles

Northwestern had its shortest season since 2005 this year after failing to advance past its quarterfinal matchup against North Carolina in the NCAA Tournament. The regular season also tested the Wildcats more than the seven-time national champions are used to. The Cats spent a good deal of the season learning how to work well with each other on the field and suffered an early loss to North Carolina, as well as a crushing 18-point defeat at the hands of Florida toward the end of the season. Nonetheless, NU ended its regular season 15-2 and went on to win its sixth ALC title in seven years — a championship made even sweeter because NU got its revenge and defeated Florida in the final game. The Cats received the second seed in the NCAA Tournament
in May. NU’s first two games were dominant wins over Stanford and Penn State that saw commanding performances from junior draw specialist Alyssa Leonard and senior midfielder Taylor Thornton. Leonard and her junior classmates noticeably stepped up in the postseason and proved themselves worthy to fill the shoes of the seven seniors the team graduates this year. Leonard won 125 draws for NU this season to set the program’s single-season record as well as career record, with 306 draws. Junior defender Kerri Harrington led the team’s defense and worked with new sophomore goalkeeper Bridget Bianco to form the Cats’ tight defense, one of the team’s most consistent elements all season. On attack, senior Erin Fitzgerald led the team with 59 goals this season and was NU’s most dependable goal scorer all year. Both Fitzgerald and Thornton were named to the first-team AllAmerican squad. Other seniors including midfielder Gabriella Flibotte, who led the team with 60 ground balls, Ali Cassera and Amanda Macaluso — who had 24 and 25 goals, respectively — rounded out the team’s greatest contributors this season.
Cats uphold expectations
Coming into the 2012-13 season as a team with expectations, the Wildcats walked away with a season that, while marked by a few frustrating losses, proved last year’s resurgence was no fluke. Northwestern began its season with six straight wins, including victories over Louisville and Notre Dame, two teams that had flummoxed the Cats in the past. After a blistering start, NU was slowed

Landmark season promising for Cats
by Vanderbilt and Harvard, who handed the Cats two back-to-back losses in early February. Later, five straight wins leading up to the start of its conference schedule helped get NU back on track and break into the top 20 in the rankings. Through the majority of their Big Ten season, the Cats played to their ranking, handling their lower-
Two things are important when it comes to team sports: having talent and getting every ounce of ability out of players on a squad. While one of these attributes can be helpful in moving a team along, only the combination of the two leads to a truly successful season. Such is the best way to understand the Wildcats’ performance on the links this past season. By far, the program had its best season to date, closing out a maiden victory at the Big Ten Championships in April and advancing through the NCAA Regionals for only the second time ever, ending with a 15th place finish at the NCAA Championships. This season, the team possessed its most talented squad in its nearly quartercentury. Clearly, the recent funnel of top recruits to NU lent credibility to the program and is now producing results. Yet, as much game as the NU ladies had, they still had to outperform expectations in order to qualify for the NCAA Championships. While Lauren Weaver and Devon Brown, last season’s two best scorers, suffered slumps, every other significant team member got the absolute most she could out of games this season. Hana Lee and Kaitlin Park, both underclassmen, garnered first-team All-Big Ten selections. Suchaya Tangkamolprasert, a freshman, produced the team’s best score in three of its last four events. Elizabeth Szokol, another freshman, while inconsistent, had some inexplicably low rounds that made her contribution noteworthy. The team maxed out its golfing ability in 2013, and it could be even better next season. Weaver is the only key player leaving, and if Brown’s swing-change blues recede, she has the game to return as the team’s No. 1. She’ll have a lot of competition for that spot, but that’s a good thing for a team that looks poised to further its presence on the national level.

Lack of consistency killed Cats
Throughout the spring season, coach Pat Goss beseeched his players for consistency in their performance, but they never came through. Poor play from too many Northwestern golfers ultimately sunk the squad’s effort to make it back to the NCAA Championships for the first time since 2010. The slide started at the Big Ten
NU ends season on disappointing note After a promising start to the year, the Wildcats ended the season in disappointment, getting knocked out of the Big Ten Tournament in the second round and missing the NCAA Tournament after making it year. Northwestern finished fifth in the Big Ten, highlighted by three-game sweeps of Illinois, Penn State and Purdue. The Cats also had big wins over Notre Dame and Minnesota. NU looked great heading into the homestretch of the regular season, stringing together five consecutive victories with just one series left against Big Ten leader Michigan. NU battled hard in the tough road series but failed to get a victory in Ann Arbor, Mich. The losses put the Cats in the fifth seed for the Big Ten Tournament, forcing them to the play in the first round. The defending champions won the first game against Indiana 6-3. NU then drew the fourth seed and
Championships, where NU finished sixth, despite being the highest-ranked squad going into the event. The sour golf then carried over to the NCAA Regionals, where the Cats faded to an eighth-place finish when they needed a top-five spot to move on. Though Jack Perry rose to the occasion in his junior season, avoiding any
Softball eventual champion Wisconsin, and the Cats’ defense failed sophomore ace Amy Letourneau, who committed three errors, allowing the Badgers to score three unearned runs and knock NU out of the tournament. Letourneau was the most valuable player for the Cats all season both in the circle and at the plate. The sophomore won a Big Ten batting title finishing with a .475 average and led the league in strikeouts while in the circle. The Cats’ offense was potent throughout the season and gave them a chance in every matchup, but oftentimes their defense had trouble keeping up. Although the lack of a NCAA berth was disappointing for NU, the team graduates only three seniors, and the young talent brings promise for next season. — Rebecca Friedman
score above 74 until the penultimate event of the season and using his trustworthy golf to snag the Les Bolstad Award for lowest season scoring average among all Big Ten golfers, one player does not a team make. Nicholas Losole provided NU with a solid No. 2, and, at times, the underclassmen trio of Matthew Negri, Andrew
Whalen and Josh Jamieson stepped up. Yet Losole could be hampered by one poor round, and the trio never worked in sync. The Cats have hope in avenging this year’s poor finish. Perry returns next year, as do all other participating players save Losole. NU also adds the world’s 11th-ranked amateur to the fray.
Cats’ season a missed opportunity After a 14-10 start that included an exhilarating evening at Wrigley Field, Northwestern (22-26, 9-15) lost 16 of its final 24 games to finish below .500 for the 10th straight season. The team was five games from qualifying for the Big Ten Tournament. The Cats, however, were a few close losses from a winning record and with a few breaks could have contended for the playoffs. Their overall record was the best it’s been since 2005. NU was buoyed by a largely veteran core. Senior starting pitcher Luke Farrell’s 2.13 ERA was the best for any NU starter since 1996, and redshirt senior Zach Morton had a strong season at the plate, in the field and on the mound. Redshirt senior Trevor Stevens and seniors Jack Havey and Colby Everett contributed in various ways as
well. Junior utility man Kyle Ruchim, sophomore catcher Scott Heelan and sophomore pitcher Brandon Magallones also enjoyed productive seasons. A variety of factors, both in and out of the Cats’ control, derailed the team’s postseason hopes. As coach Paul Stevens said after the season, “It was a very, very unusual year.” The Cats were rained or snowed out of 10 games, canceling seven and postponing three. Temperatures were often sub-optimal, keeping practice indoors and making gameplay difficult. Meanwhile, the Cats were 11-17 in games decided by three
“We should have a very strong team next year,” Goss said. “We’re bringing the best recruit we’ve brought in 15 years or more, a player who can make an immediate impact ... hopefully we will see some improvement and growth from the rest of the team as well.” — Kevin Casey
Baseball runs or fewer, a trend statistical analysts would attribute mostly to plain bad luck. “You always want to find a way to accomplish all the things that you wanted to do, “ Stevens said. “But in a lot of the cases, I cannot sit there and say we did not run into some tough scenarios.”
