SINCE 1916

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev convicted in Boston Marathon bombing richard a. serrano |tribune Washington bureau For a city still traumatized by the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11, the 30 guilty verdicts announced Wednesday against Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev offered a moment of closure and unity. d zhokhar t sarnaev The next phase of the trial, when a seven-woman, five-man federal jury decides how to punish the young Russian immigrant, could prove more painful and divisive given the stark differences in the community between those who want Tsarnaev put to death and those opposed to capital punishment. But for survivors of that chaotic, bloody day in April 2013 — when twin explosions killed three people and wounded more than 260 others — the government’s victory in winning convictions on all counts against Tsarnaev provided a chance to come together in shared grief and resolve. At the race finish line on Boylston Street on Wednesday, someone left four yellow roses — one for each victim of the blast and another for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer killed during the search for Tsarnaev and his older brother, Tamerlan. “Justice has been served today,” said Dic Donohue, a Boston transit officer who was wounded in the shootout between the Tsarnaevs and police. “We have again shown as a society that terrorism will not prevail.” Tsarnaev, 21, thin, tousle-haired and lightly bearded, stood in the federal courtroom in Boston for a half-hour as the clerk read all 31 pages of the jury’s verdict form in a steady, droning voice, reciting the word “guilty” over and over. The counts against Tsarnaev included conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction and murdering four people, including rookie MIT Police Officer Sean Collier. The two pressure-cooker bombs were filled with nails, metal shards and BBs, shrapnel that shredded victims’ flesh. Krystle Campbell, 28, Lingzi Lu, 23, and Martin Richard, 8, were killed in the blast. Seventeen others lost one or both legs. “I may be standing on one fake leg, but I’m standing stronger than ever,” said Rebekah Gregory DiMartino, who lost her left leg in the blasts and testified during the trial. She spoke on television to reporters outside her Texas home. In Boston, U.S. Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz appeared optimistic that the trial would result in the government’s first death sentence in a terrorism case since the 9/11 attack.

l uke n ozicka | @LukeNozicka Gov.-elect Bruce Rauner speaks to media Nov. 7 outside The Vault Café in Marion during the first stop of his statewide “Thank You Tour.”

Gov. Bruce Rauner to speak at SIU graduation luke nozicka | @LukeNozicka Gov. Bruce Rauner, who is proposing a 32 percent cut to higher education, will be one of the keynote speakers at this year’s graduation. He will speak at the 1:30 p.m. ceremony — for students in the College of Business and the College of Education and Human Services — on May 16. “His greatest passion is education,” according to SIU’s keynote speaker web page. “The governor and first lady have devoted a tremendous amount of their personal time and resources to improving education throughout the state.” Rae Goldsmith, SIU’s spokeswoman, said the university is not paying Rauner to speak at commencement. She said last year’s speaker, Ali Wentworth — the actress and producer who is married to George Stephanopoulos, a Good Morning America anchor — was paid $40,000 to speak at all three ceremonies.

Jim Edgar, the 38th governor of Illinois, will speak at the 9 a.m. ceremony, and Bill Norwood, SIU’s first black quarterback who graduated in 1959, will speak at the 5:30 p.m. one. The two will receive honorary degrees from the university this year. Goldsmith said President Randy Dunn invited Rauner to talk at graduation in January, before his budget address in February. In his letter, Dunn said more than 800 students will earn their degrees from the two colleges, and he anticipates more than 5,000 family members and friends will be in attendance. “Your speech could underscore, among other things, the vital linkage between providing a quality education to our young people and the ability for business to succeed,” Dunn wrote in the letter, saying Rauner’s remarks do not need to be longer than 15 minutes. “The combination of the commencement ceremonies for these two

colleges seems to provide a solid background for crafting your message.” Rauner’s proposed budget, which needs to pass the General Assembly, will cut $62 million from SIU’s system, including $44 million from the Carbondale campus. During a Senate budget committee hearing in March, Dunn said as many as 1,000 SIU courses will be cut if Rauner’s budget passes. Since then, Dunn has said he will recommend a 6 percent tuition increase to the SIU Board of Trustees at its April 16 meeting. Because of his proposed cuts to the university, some students are irritated with the decision to have him speak. One of those students is Daniel Valle, sports director at WSIU Public Radio — one of the nonacademic units asked to submit ramifications of a 50 percent cut in state funding. Please see RAUNER | 3

Talk traces identity across borders austin Miller | @AMiller_DE Race has been a touchy subject in America and a presentation hopes to turn the topic into more of an embrace. The two-staff, one-student panel will discuss immigration, citizenship and identity from Asian and Latino perspectives at 5 p.m. Thursday in the Faner Museum Auditorium. Two of the panelists are sharing personal examples and research of how immigration affects people. Nilanjana Bardhan, director of graduate studies, came to the U.S. from India in 1992. With

the help of Bin Zhang, a doctoral student in communications from China, she studied how identities transitioned as people moved across borders. “When we both got here, we struggled with finding where we fit in,” Bardhan said. “Now we live here, we have to understand where we fit in the system. We are not used to seeing ourselves as people of color because where we come from, everyone looks like us.” Zhang, who came to SIU in 2011, said he and other Asian international students did not understand what was going on in Ferguson last summer. They did

not know about America’s history and why a white cop killing a black man would be a major story. Bardhan said race is a tense issue in America because of the country’s past with slavery, whereas other countries have tension with religion or social class. “We both struggle with the concept of race in the United States,” Bardhan said. “The way race is understood in the United States is very specific to the history of this country and is not understood in the same way around the world.” Other countries, less culturally diverse than the U.S., view the

concept of race as a lesser issue. Zhang said it was tough for him to go from being in the majority in China to being a minority here. He said China has a very homogenous population so he had to learn how to act like a minority. “People will tell me, ‘You are not so Chinese,’ and I didn’t understand that for a long time,” he said. “I would say, ‘That’s me, I didn’t change much.’ But because I grew up with Chinese concepts, and America is very diverse, it took me a long time to adjust. I’m Asian, so I’m supposed to be quiet, polite or a nerd.” He said he has felt forced to fit

the positive stereotypes for Asian people. He said there is an issue with Americans lumping AsianAmericans, students with Asian heritage born in America, and people born in Asia under one umbrella. He said the two groups share a lot of the same heritage—being family-oriented and striving for success—but differ in cultural aspects and in identity. He said he identifies more with his ethnicity than citizenship, as compared to an Asian-American student, which could be vice-versa. Please see IMMIGRATION | 3

RAUNER CONTINUED FROM

“Graduates should boo him, LOUDLY, as soon as he comes out,” Valle, a senior from Chicago studying radio, television and digital media, posted to Facebook on Wednesday. “Outrageous how he’s going to waltz into a university that he agreed to cut funds from.” The irony of the governor addressing a graduating class amid the threat of state budget cuts is not lost on the students of SIU, and some reacted on Twitter in light of the news. While some people are frustrated by the decision, others — like Tyler Chance, who graduated in spring 2013 — think it may not be such a bad

thing for SIU. “I’m sure they asked him to be the speaker as a political move to try to get more attention for SIU and its need for funds,” Chance wrote on Facebook. Goldsmith said it is important to bring the governor to campus to show the impact SIU has on young people. “We knew the invitation would raise concerns among some and be welcomed by others,” she said. “We really believe it’s an important way for the governor to come to southern Illinois to get to see what goes on here and it has the potential to help us build a positive relationship. He’s the governor of the state. ... It’s an honor for us to be able to have him.”

IMMIGRATION CONTINUED FROM

Each person has his or her own sense of self, so it is important to maintain that before molding someone into a generic category. “We can negotiate the nuances between the two and build up a stronger alliance within us, then we can present our differences to

the outside,” Zhang said. Bardhan said this happens because people like to place each other into a social group when they meet. She hopes talks like this will continue to make race less of a touchy subject in America. She said it is important to keep the dialogue going outside of just one month and break out of

molds we put each other in, because eventually the basic ethnicities of white, black, Hispanic and Asian will become mixed. “If we are always shouting at each other and not really engaging and understanding each other’s viewpoints, then it’s pointless,” she said. “We’re still in our boxes.”

Rauner at graduation a slap in the face leTTer To The ediTor Cody dees Senior studying marketing Daily Egyptian Editor, A collegiate graduation ceremony symbolizes so many different things to so many different people. To me, it symbolizes achievement, perseverance, dedication, and a future. With such a strong association of success, this ceremony encapsulates a plethora of different emotions. It only seems right to have a wholeheartedly, uplifting, dedicated, and wise speaker to send us

graduates into our future pursuits. With disappointment, I inform you that SIU has chosen this person to be Gov. Rauner. His propositions to splice educational funding statewide to “trim-the-fat”, has landed him on the stage of yours and mine, the graduation ceremony for the class of 2015. I don’t know about you, but I find this to be a slap in the face to the students, staff, faculty, and even the residents of the City of Carbondale. Actions speak louder than words and for that Governor Rauner’s words will

mean virtually nothing to me on that day, if I choose to even walk across that stage. If this decision is merely an affect of budget cuts, I say shame on you SIU. I can think of numerous students, faculty, and staff on this campus that would gladly commence the Class of 2015’s achievements, with an actionable passion for higher education. Do you feel SIU provided their due diligence to its students when choosing Governor Rauner to step in to do the honors?

a Ja g arMon | Daily Egyptian St. Louis native Vincent Rhomberg, co-director of the Varsity Theater’s upcoming production of “Becky’s New Car,” speaks to the audience during rehearsal with actress Becky Shaffer, of Murphysboro. The comedy, which will run the next two weekends, details the midlife crisis of wife and mother Becky Foster as she attempts to leave her old life behind for a new one.

‘Becky’s New Car’ represents life, midlife crises and starting over JaCob pierCe | @JacobPierce1_DE While midlife crises are often illustrated by men buying motorcycles or other cliche male issues, a new play at the Varsity Center for Arts shows the other side of the equation. The Varsity Center for Arts and The Stage Company, a nonprofit theater organization created in 1982, are cohosting “Becky’s New Car,” a play written by Steven Dietz. The show, directed by Vincent Rhomberg and Jacquie Betz, plays the next two weekends. “Becky’s New Car," the company's fourth play of the year, is a comedy about a middle-aged wife and mother in her 28th year of marriage. A secretary at a car dealership, Becky finds herself juggling a double life when a she is alone and a millionaire comes looking for a vehicle. Becky starts with a little white lie and the situation keeps getting worse, Betz said. At one point, she even fakes her own death. Becky has to decide whether she wants to return to her old life.

Rhomberg — the director of marketing in the theater department at SIU — said the play comically looks at a modern midlife crisis. Comedy does not play a huge role in contemporary writing. A depressing voice is commonplace for the creative mind nowadays, he said. “We usually don’t look at running away from life as a funny thing.” “Rhomberg said. “What is so interesting about the play is how Steven Dietz approaches it as a funny situation.” Midlife crises are usually portrayed as a male concept, Betz said. In fiction, it tends to be an event only men go through. No one looks at how reaching middle age affects women, she said. Rhomberg said some women of a certain age feel invisible and many want to find a way to become visible again, he said. “The love and excitement in Becky’s life has gone away,” Rhomberg said. “Her journey is to find that passion again.” Becky Shaffer, a middle school teacher from Murphysboro, plays the title role

of Becky. The character is satisfied, but stagnant. She sees a life out of her reach, Shaffer said. “Becky tries a different life and learns it was not a good choice,” she said. The plot revolves around being happy with what one has or to seek out for something “better.” Becky sees a greener pasture she could take, Shaffer said. Eric Billingsley, an insurance agent for Blue Cross Shield from Goreville, plays Walter, the millionaire who inadvertently causes Becky's plight in the play. The drama is about conventions, Billingsley said. Not only does Becky try and break out of traditions, but the play itself escapes theater normalcy. Betz said “Becky’s New Car” constantly breaks the fourth wall. There are points where Becky will stop the play and speak directly to the audience. She will implore the playgoers to grab items or ask the audience a question. “Becky’s New Car” runs 7:30 p.m. on Friday performances and 2 p.m on Saturday performances. Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for students.

The Hooten Hallers howl through Hangar Chase Myers | @chasemyers_DE Missouri has been a key player in preserving the authenticity of blues, especially with its "St. Louis shuffle" style of heavy, on-beat sound. The Hooten Hallers, a blues/ country trio from Columbia, Mo., is known for their roots in blues rock and their country influence. They will be playing at 10 p.m. Saturday at Hangar 9. County Graves is also on the bill and admission will be $5 at the door. The Hooten Hallers began as a duo in 2007, consisting of John Randal on guitar and vocals and Andy Rehm on drums and vocals. The band remained local until about four years ago when it started touring full time. Recently, the band has added Kellie Everett, a bass and baritone saxophone to the line up to add another layer of sound, Rehm said. “There’s just some stuff you can’t do with just guitar and drums, so its kind of nice to have extra instrumentation here and there,” he

p rovided p hoTo

said. “As long as we can bring the sound we create on the record on the road, I don’t see anything wrong with that.” The band is inspired by music that has stood the test of time, whether it be blues or country, he said. “We usually just tell people we are a rock 'n’ roll band because I think that is the most true,” he said. “There’s elements of blues

and country music in there too, but typically we just say we’re a rowdy rock 'n’ roll band.” Some cities have their own distinct influence on bands, but the Hooten Hallers capture the essence of the entire state of Missouri in aspects of their music, he said.

Hockey next in line for women’s sports in America BrenT Meske | @brentmeskeDE

n aThan h oeferT | @NathanHoefertDE Junior quarterback Ryan West, left, and freshman quarterback Sam Straub signal plays during practice at Saluki Stadium Aug. 12. West plans to transfer where he can get more playing time.

Saluki quarterback to transfer MaTT Wells | @mattwells_DE Junior quarterback Ryan West intends to transfer from SIU and wants to pursue his sport at the Division II level. “We anticipated it to a degree,” Saluki head coach Dale Lennon said. He said West is transferring to get more playing time and senior quarterback Mark Iannotti is the team’s No. 1 quarterback at this point. West said the decision to transfer took about a week and a half. He communicated the idea of transferring to Lennon.

“I thought I would stick it out through the first scrimmage and see if things would change,” West said. But, the circumstances did not change and they finalized his decision. He said Lennon understood. “I have the utmost respect for coach Lennon,” West said. West said Lennon would make calls and provide him references whenever they are needed. Lennon said he is not qualified to say where West will transfer. He said having West was a luxury and the transfer was on good terms.

West said with the nature of the quarterback position, only one can play, and it is competitive. “I go out to practice every day and give 100 percent effort,” he said. “It’s just how circumstances ended up. They ended up not favoring me and it turned out that maybe it was a time for me to leave.” In 2014, West started two games and played in six, throwing for 7 touchdowns, 6 interceptions and 599 passing yards.

A new women’s hockey league was announced on March 26 and will place four teams in the northeast United States. The National Women’s Hockey League will consist of the Boston Pride, Buffalo Beauts, Connecticut Whale and New York Riveters. With all four teams in the northeast, travel costs will be low and regional rivalries will develop. The league was started by Dani Rylan and Angela Ruggiero—a fourtime Olympic medalist—after they could not bring a New York expansion team to the Canadian Women’s Hockey League. The NWHL will use sponsorships and donations to the NWHL Foundation to support each team’s salary cap of $270,000. On an 18-woman roster, each player would receive an average of $15,000 and players will have the option to negotiate contracts with their general managers. While the CWHL does not pay players, it does cover hockeyrelated expenses. Meghan Duggan—a two-time American Olympic silver medalist— worked as an assistant coach with Clarkson University’s women’s hockey team while training to stay on Team USA. In an interview with Helene Elliott of the Los Angeles Times, Duggan said working a full-time job

is something all female hockey players have to do. “We’ve had girls that are juggling full-time jobs while they’re training,” she said. “It’s the reality of our situation. It’s certainly something I would like to see improve in the future, but at this point it’s what we know.” Duggan plays for the Boston Blades in the CWHL, which is the only American-based team in the league. The team has won the last three league championships and has mirrored the National Hockey League in the recent success of American teams. In the NHL, American-based teams have won every Stanley Cup since the Montreal Canadiens in 1993. The NWHL has a better chance of garnering a fan base than the Women’s National Basketball Association. Since the WNBA’s inception in 1996, it has failed miserably at putting fans in the seats. The fan base grew by an average of 327 fans from 2013 to 2014 but is only at a league average of 7,348 as of 2014. Last season marked the highest average viewership for the WNBA Finals— according to sportsmediawatch.com— with an average of 659,000 viewers. The NWHL is developing as the WCHL is at its prime. Last season the WCHL—founded in 2007— featured its first all-star game and struck a television deal with SportsNet, a Canadian media outlet.

Sophomore making progress in new role for Dawgs ThoMas donley | @TdonleyDE SIU sophomore Jake Hand is seeing baseball from a new angle, trading the tools of ignorance for the open range of the outfield. Hand found out about a week before the start of baseball season that he would primarily be an outfielder. Hand had been a catcher since he was in fourth grade, but the arrivals of junior catcher Taylor Martin, a transfer from Walters State Community College and freshman catcher Nick Hutchins allowed the Salukis to move Hand away from the dish defensively. While he was not necessarily excited about the news, Hand has

embraced the move, taking extra fly balls before and after practice as often as possible. “Pretty much anything that gets me onto the field, I don’t mind,” Hand said. “To be as good an outfielder as I can be, I know I have to work really hard at it, and I like to work hard. That’s something that I really want to do.” Hand’s .885 fielding percentage is the worst on the team. He works with assistant coach Ryan Strain on his defense every day in practice. Strain said Hand’s natural athleticism has helped him make the transition. “It’s a work in progress, but he’s improving,” Strain said. “It’s not easy,

being behind the plate his whole career and going out there trying to judge fly balls, but he’s been working hard at it. He’s getting better each day.” Hand has started 26 games this season, fourth most on the team. Eleven of those starts have come in left field, seven in right and eight at designated hitter. He is currently batting .247 and is second on the team with 13 RBIs, primarily batting cleanup. Coach Ken Henderson said Hand does not let his defensive struggles affect his offensive output. For the rest of this story, please see www.dailyegyptian.com

C arringTon s pires | @CSpires77 Former catcher Jake Hand is leaving home plate this season to focus on improving his skills as an outfielder. The staff is pleased with his offense, and says his defense improves daily.
