Posing for a senior project Jorden Thomas, a senior from Galesburg studying biology, poses as Alyssa Carter, a senior from Chicago studying phtogography, uses a light meter to check the exposure of her lighting setup. Carter is working on her senior portfolio, which will be a collection of diptychs. A diptych is two images placed sideby-side, which are usually related to one another. Each diptych will be a black and white portrait of a subject with another photograph of a handwritten letter the subject wrote next to it. The portraits will portray the subject as confident, juxtaposed with the handwritten letters describing their insecurities. “My goal is not to exploit the subjects, they are my friends” Carter said. “By writing their own letters they are sharing only the information they want to share.”

Author takes Rep. Aaron Schock resigns amid scandal students on feminist journey Katherine Skiba

Gender inequality was so prevalent in the 1950s, women at certain universities were not allowed to own keys to their own dorms. If they were not back by curfew, the school punished them. The fight for gender equality on college campuses has been a work-in-progress since the early 1940s, and even though the issues have changed, there is still a lack of symmetry. According to Merrian-Webster’s website, feminism is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. But, to Kelly Sartorius, co-chair of the Advanced Development for Deans, feminism historically means women’s rights to citizenship. Sartorius, who is also director of development at Washington University in St. Louis, will present from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Wednesday in room 752 and 754 in the Morris Library. Sartorius’ research in feminism focuses on the college atmosphere of men and women before the late 1960s. “We’ve come a long way in terms of women’s access to graduate school, access to careers, sciences, engineering and business,” Sartorius said. Many schools were separated into men’s colleges and women’s colleges in the early 20th century, especially in the northeast and southern schools, she said. She said women at large public schools in the West and Midwest were much more progressive, and most of them had co-education. “They had separate student lives,” she said. “The women had a women’s building… but the place where [men and women] were always together in the West and Midwest was the classroom.” Although this was more common during the turn of the 20th century, the same concept continued into the early 1960s, but in the form of career planners. She said men had blue sign-up papers and women had pink. The blue papers would advise careers as professors or lab scientists, and the pink papers would be similar, but might suggest careers as lab assistants instead. “It would have been totally normal in the 1950s to enroll students for chemistry 101 and fill up the class with all the men,” she said. “If there’s seven seats left, then you can enroll women.” Please see WOMEN ·3

Rep. Aaron Schock is resigning his seat in Congress, saying in a statement issued Tuesday that “constant questions over the last six weeks have proven a great distraction” and have made it “too difficult for me to serve the people of the 18th district. The 33-year-old Illinois Republican from Peoria had been considered a rising star in Washington, but has been dogged by controversy over spending of campaign and taxpayer money. Schock’s statement read as follows: “Today, I am announcing my resignation as a Member of the United States House of Representatives effective March 31st. “I do this with a heavy heart. Serving the people of the 18th District is the highest and greatest honor I have had in my life. I thank them for their faith in electing me and letting me represent their interests in Washington. I have given them my all over the last six years. I have traveled to all corners of the District to meet with the people I’ve been fortunate to be able to call my friends and neighbors. “But the constant questions over the last six weeks have proven a great distraction that has made it too difficult for me to serve the people of the 18th District with the high standards that they deserve and which I have set for myself. “I have always sought to do what’s best for my constituents and I thank them for

As he came under increasing scrutiny in the last six weeks the lawmaker enlisted two veteran Washington lawyers for an internal review of his office and political operation. Considered an adept practitioner of social media, his many posts of photos of himself in far-flung locales fueled controversy over how he was spending his time and money.

SIUE nursing school makes national listing Elizabeth Donald

Belleville News-Democrat

A focus on developing nurse practitioners, anesthetists and educators has put the graduate nursing school at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville on a national listing for the first time. While the university as a whole has appeared in U.S. News and World Report’s lists of the best colleges in the country for many years, this is the first time the SIUE School of Nursing has appeared in the listing of the nation’s best graduate schools. The SIUE School of Nursing is among the top 25 percent of nursing graduate schools nationwide and is listed at No. 122, according to the 2016 edition. Dr. Laura Bernaix, interim dean of the

nursing school, said it is “an honor” to be included. “As the school continues to mature and expand, we fully expect that our students’ education experience will continuously improve, our research efforts will heighten and the school’s positive impact in our community and throughout the region will be dramatic.” Bernaix said the nurses who pursue graduate-level degrees at SIUE generally are studying to become nurse practitioners, often part of family practices, who take on many of the duties of a medical doctor, including writing prescriptions. Others become nurse anesthetists in cases requiring anesthesia, or nurse educators, prepared to teach in nursing schools. They also can pursue

His penchant for travel has come under intense scrutiny in recent weeks, ever since The Washington Post described his “Downton Abbey” redesign of his congressional office.

The lawmaker still faces allegations that he did not properly account for his trips and did not conform to requirements on the use of private aircraft.

a nursing administrator degree, which helps nurses take leadership roles in health care systems, she said. Allyson Anderson has just completed her first year of graduate study to become a nurse anesthetist. She received her bachelor’s degree from SIUE as well but had to work two and a half years in an intensive-care unit before she could even apply for the graduate school. As the spring semester draws to a close, she is planning her clinical practicum. “What I like most about the program is that there are 25 or so clinical sites for anesthesia, from Quincy to Carbondale,” she said. “We get a wide array of experience, which is what drew to me to SIUE in the first place.” Please see NURSING · 2

Anderson said. “The instructors challenge us -- it’s a very challenging field -- but they’re very supportive and advocate for us on many levels.” Bernaix said the SIUE School of Nursing is trying to respond to national assessments indicating a shortage of nurses, especially in southern Illinois. “We need to be intricately involved in the design and delivery of health care,” she said. “We’re always looking to develop and offer more programs that meet the needs of our nursing workforce population, assess the critical needs of the population and find what is the best fit for us and the nurses out there.” Part of that focus has been

putting the programs available partly or entirely online, Bernaix said, allowing more flexibility and accessibility to graduate students. “Graduate programs often involve people who are employed and going back to school after hours, so a flexible program that meets their personal life needs is a plus,” she said. The SIUE program also places its students throughout the region and southern Illinois during their practicum hours, which Bernaix said gives them exposure to a variety of populations with different health care needs. “They’re much better prepared to go out after graduation to secure a job,” she said.

‘Unfinished Business’ is bankrupt of joy Jacob Pierce

@JacobPierce1_DE | Daily Egyptian

Vince Vaughn is almost at an Adam Sandler level of career stagnation. The actor has not made a critically successful film since “Into the Wild” in 2007. Vaughn has never been known for an extensive acting ability, but since then he has played the same character and done the same movie repeatedly. Anytime Vaughn is in a new film, it is a hopeless opportunity at his former glory. Those who found him funny before hope his next film is the one to rejuvenate his career. “Unfinished Business” (Rated R; 90 mins) directed by Ken Scott, is not a jumpstart to his career—it is just another joyless endeavor. Dan Trunkman, played by Vaughn, quits his salesman job after being told a pay cut was on its way. He decides to start his own company with two other unemployed workers, played by Dave Franco and Tom Wilkinson. Three years later, the company is on its last leg. Their last chance comes in the form of a business deal in Amsterdam. The gang realizes the deal is not as concrete as they thought when

Trunkman’s former boss, Chuck Portnoy, shows up. Portnoy, played by Sienna Miller, starts a business war the group cannot afford to lose. The two businesses compete to get a coveted contract and prove which is superior. This becomes difficult when Trunkman’s group starts to get caught up in the nightlife of Amsterdam. They see their lives may not be what they want. Then they start on a path to make their company the type of organization they want, instead of what the business world wants. Previews for the film looked like it may be Vaughn’s first good one in a while. Each trailer for his next film misleads people into thinking this will be the one to bring his empire back up, this one will be like “Wedding Crashers.” This trailer shows the actor in we all fell in love with, but performances are not always as great as they seem. The film’s first problem and the cause of Vaughn’s slump lies in his inability to play anyone different. He has not played a new role in seven years. Each film he does could be looked at as a continuation of the last one, if not for different character names. He is the king of the slobs. The kind

of guy who is not exactly ugly, but also not in the best shape. He is relatable and charismatic all at the same time. This shtick has gotten a little old—especially his version. Some actors can play the same role for their entire career, Vaughn unfortunately is not one of those actors. One can only hope he pulls a Matthew McConaughey and shows everyone his true acting prowess at some point. You notice how the plot description above makes it seem like nothing happened in this movie? This is not because I decided to purposely omit important events. Nothing happens in “Unfinished Business.” To even say it has a plot, is an insult to the entire idea of a plot and a moving story. The movie just throws a bunch of crazy ideas out there and calls it a story. Nothing really happens that furthers the plot, or even adds relevant humor to the movie. It brings up situations because of logic such as, “You know what would be funny? If this old guy smoked a bong.” The filmmakers try to justify it with convoluted character motivations, but nothing feels genuine. For the rest of the story, please see www.dailyegyptian.com

Saluki to compete in NCAA Championship Matt Wells

@mattwells_DE | Daily Egyptian

SIU Diver Kaixuan “Sherry” Zhang is competing for the second year in a row in the NCAA Diving Championships starting Thursday. Zhang qualified in both the 3-meter and 1-meter dives with scores of 682.45 and 634.05 respectively at the NCAA Zone C regional championship from March 10 to 13 at Ohio State University. In last year’s championship, Zhang finished third in the 3-meter dive where she scored 385.20 and 11th in the 1-meter dive where she scored 296.75. She said her teammates’ and coaches’ support has aided her. “This season, my coach Joy [Zhao] and my teammates, they help me

and correct me,” Zhang said. “We always tell each other, you should do this, or you shouldn’t do this.” Zhang said attention to detail in the sport is paramount. “Your toes, your hands, like especially when you’re really close to someone, the judge will look at your dive really detailed,” she said. “They could deduct your point for even a little mistake you make, so we train a lot.” Zhang, a nine-time Missouri Valley Conference Diver of the Week honoree, is obsessed with her craft. “When I have nothing to do, I just think about my dive,” Zhang said. “I imagine I’m diving and standing on a board and just pretend I’m diving.” It is not all roses for the MVC Diver of the Year. Zhang said even

really good divers have trouble under pressure. SIU swim coach Rick Walker said Zhang’s preparation for the NCAA Championship is the same as it has been all season. “It takes a lot of work,” Walker said. “It takes a lot of practice, just repetition.” Walker said Zhang has an advantage because she has competed in the meet before. “Now she knows how to prepare once she gets up there and gets nervous, she knows what’s making her nervous,” Walker said. “She’s now mentally had time to practice overcoming that.” Zhang first dives Thursday at the Greenboro Aquatic Center in Greensboro, N.C.

Utility is key to freshman’s success Brent Meske

@brentmeskeDE | Daily Egyptian

Versatility is important for a softball team and the Salukis have a freshman who is resourceful both offensively and defensively. Savannah Fisher leads the team with a .600 slugging percentage, 2 triples and 2 home runs. As of March 15, Fisher ranked No. 8 in the Missouri Valley Conference for slugging percentage and is one of two players in the conference with multiple triples. Through 19 games, Fisher has started 13 and played in 15 of them. She has been used as both a second baseman and left fielder and has batted in five of the nine spots in the lineup. Fisher said it was hard to tell how her hitting would transition from high school, but she said her travel team helped. “I go out there and try to hit the ball hard,” she said. “I’ve been playing my whole life so I’m just building on everything I’ve learned.” Coach Kerri Blaylock said she has no doubt Fisher is capable of hitting at the collegiate level and would like to see Fisher be an offensive leader all season. Blaylock said Fisher never played second base before college and her utility ability is crucial for the team. “She’s learning the nuances of [second base],” Blaylock said. “She wants to absorb information; she wants to know.” Fisher said competitiveness is the biggest change from high school softball. In addition to the categories she leads, Fisher is tied for second on the team in total bases, runs scored and doubles with 22, 10 and two, respectively. She said she looks up to leaders like junior infielder Kelsey Gonzalez and sophomore first

baseman Shaye Harre—the top returning hitters from last season— for batting advice. “I have learned a lot from them,” Fisher said. “Everyone is a leader on the team to me, and they’ve all been really helpful.” Fisher is also skilled defensively. Blaylock said she could use her in all three outfield positions as well as the middle infield. Gonzalez said she is impressed with Fisher’s defensive play so far this year. “It’s really nice to see a freshman come out and perform like that,” she said. “It’s a team effort, we need everyone.”

Although Fisher’s .275 batting average is sixth on the team, she hopes to continue helping the team and improve all aspects of her game. Fisher said she needs to focus on whichever aspect of her game is struggling, whether it be offensive or defensive. Blaylock said she would continue to use Fisher as a utility player for this season, but she would most likely settle into one position in the upcoming years. “[Fisher] has a lot of natural talent, but she’s also working really hard,” she said. “She’s a kid that will be the first one here and the last one to leave, she wants to get better.”

Dawgs reconvene at Saluki Stadium for Pro Day Brent Meske

@brentmeskeDE | Daily Egyptian

Pro Day on Tuesday marked the last opportunity for former Saluki football players to play on the turf of Saluki Stadium. NFL hopefuls swarmed the field to perform for scouts from the Houston Texans, New York Jets, Chicago Bears and Cincinnati Bengals as teammates gathered to watch. Outside linebacker Tyler Williamson said being on the field again was surreal. “I haven’t been gone long, so it’s not far back in my memory,” he said. “But it’s home, it’s comfortable. It was great to see all my old teammates again.” Tight end MyCole Pruitt and running back Malcolm Agnew gathered the most scout attention, which was pivotal for other players to take advantage of. Agnew said Pruitt brought more attention to the Pro Day, but he was happy to help teammates be recognized. “It was good for other teammates to get exposure,” he said. “I hope everyone gets a chance, because it’s not easy to make it.” Pruitt came to SIU’s Pro Day to do route running and blocking drills, but did not participate in drills he had completed during the NFL Scouting Combine.

Pruitt, who was happy with his Pro Day performance, said not competing in those drills decreased pressure on him. “I could come out here and focus on running my routes and catching the ball,” he said. Pruitt said he improved on his

blocking, which he previously admitted needed work. Agnew focused on versatility out of the backfield and said he wanted to show off his athleticism. “I wanted to catch the ball cleanly and crisply and prove that I hustle every day,” he said. “I feel like I did that today.”

Agnew said he has talked with scouts from the Texans, Jets and Dallas Cowboys but is hoping to get individual workouts with teams before the Draft on April 30. Without official results, Agnew was told he ran either a high 4.40 or low 4.50 in the 40-yard dash. “It puts me in the running,” he said. “Not many backs ran 4.40, and a lot were in the 4.60s. If I was in the 4.50s, I’ll be happy.” After suffering an ankle injury on Oct. 18 against Youngstown State, Agnew missed the final four games of a season where he had five 100-plus yard rushing performances in seven games. Agnew said it is a blessing to be healthy again and he was happy to avoid surgery for the injury. Long snapper Thor Hadfield

said Pro Day was an opportunity for him to perform in front of scouts after attending the College Senior Specialist’s Combine on Feb. 27 in Arizona. “I put a lot into this day and performing in front of NFL scouts,” he said. Hadfield signed with agent Jason Emert of LeConte Sports on Monday—a goal he wanted to accomplish before Pro Day—and said now the process turns into a waiting game. Hadfield has been in contact with both Canadian Football League and NFL teams, but his first choice is still the NFL. “I can compete at that level,” he said. “I’ve got the size and ability, I just need to get in front of the right people.” Hadfield is considering attending CFL tryouts—depending on dates and feedback from Pro Day—for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Montreal Allouettes in April, and has heard from NFL teams asking for his measurements and snap times. He has yet to practice with a NFL team. Hadfield said Emert, a former punter at SIU in 2005 and 2006, stood out because he appreciates and understands what it takes to be a specialist. Emert said Hadfield is a complete package as a player and a person. He does not doubt Hadfield will have a chance to compete for a roster spot. “You have to be able to sell someone,” he said. “Thor is a locker room guy… first and foremost he’s a good guy and then a good athlete and good player.”

Salukis get verbal commitment in wake of transfers Aaron Graff

@Aarongraff_DE | Daily Egyptian

Point guard Mike Rodriguez, from Marshalltown Community College, verbally committed to SIU on Tuesday. Rodriguez is a 2-Star recruit, according to VerbalCommits.com. In two seasons with the Tigers, he averaged 19.9 points per game in 58 games. Rodriguez, who stated on Twitter that he plans to visit the university March 26, committed just a day after two SIU guard

said they will transfer at year’s end. SIU men’s basketball freshman guards Chaz Glotta and K.C Goodwin will transfer at the end of the school year, coach Barry Hinson announced Monday. Glotta played in 18 games and averaged 2.3 points per game. Goodwin redshirted the 2013-2014 season. This season he played in 21 games, starting six of them. He averaged 2.7 points per game. Goodwin said he is transferring because

of a lack of playing time. He said Glotta’s reasoning was the same. “When coach Hinson has his mind set on something, he stays with it,” Goodwin said. “You can’t argue with the boss man.” He said he is not upset with Hinson and will miss the team. “We’re like a family,” Goodwin said. “I don’t want to leave, they don’t want me to leave, but I’ve got to do what’s best for me.” He said he wants to continue playing, but does not know where he is transferring.

Goodwin said he does not feel he really had a chance to prove himself at the Division I level. Hinson said at the end of the season the staff would try to recruit at least one point guard this offseason. In the Saluki Athletics press release, Hinson would not comment about the players transferring, but wished them the best of luck. This story will be updated as more information becomes available.
