SINCE 1916

VOL. 99 ISSUE 55

Non-tenure track faculty face uncertain future tyler DAvis | @TDavis_DE Up to 317 non-tenure track faculty will be notified they may not have positions at the university in Fall 2015 as a result of Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner’s proposed budget cuts. The university, in an attempt to brace for Rauner’s proposed 31.5 percent cut of state appropriations to higher education, will inform these staff members if their contracts will be renewed by Friday.

Jim Wall, the president of the NonTenure Track Faculty Association, said these professors and professional staff are known as on-term appointments, which means each member is hired for either a semester or nine-month term. The association, which has between 500 and 600 members, is comprised of two groups — the other is continuing appointment, which is granted to faculty after five years in the association.

Student loses home to earthquake in Nepal Austin Miller | @AMiller_DE Nikesh Maharjan started his Sunday by showering and browsing the web. Maharjan, a graduate student in physics from Nepal, then used his tablet, went to CNN.com and saw the devastation of the magnitude-7.8 earthquake of his native country, Nepal. He logged into Facebook to make sure his family was OK and was eventually able to call his brother. “I came to know there was a huge earthquake and our family was safe,” Maharjan said. “But my home is gone.” He said their home was located in the capital city of Kathmandu, which was 50 miles from the epicenter of the earthquake. The 5-story house was shared with 12 to 15 family members, seven or eight being small children. At the time of the quake, his aunt was throwing a party, hosting nearly 25 in the house. Thankfully, they were all on his aunt's side of the house. “If they were on my side of the house, they would be gone,” he said. “We are very blessed that no one was on that side. I am fortunate that God saved our family.” He said many of his family members were too afraid to go back in, with some of them only going in to get cooking supplies and clothes. They became some of the thousands of people made homeless after the disaster, and moved into a nearby school. Minendra Rijal, Nepal’s minister of information and communications, told CNN the government was unable to make an exact estimate on the total number

of people displaced, but said 4,700 tents and 22,000 tarpaulins have been made available. Rijal said more tents were being sent from Thailand and India, and an additional 100,000 from Pakistan. Maharjan’s brother told him there is no way to save the house — there is no alternative to demolishing the place he called home. He said until then, his family would have to stay somewhere else. He said he is unsure when that would happen, with aftershocks still occurring nearly every 3 hours. To provide aid from Carbondale, the Nepalese Student Society has been taking donations at tables in the Student Center and Morris Library, and created a page on GoFundMe.com. The online campaign has raised more than $1,300 so far, with a goal of $35,000. The desire to help others has brought together the diverse people of SIU. Noah Leverett, a sophomore from Carbondale studying math, said one the first friends he made at SIU was from Nepal. Leverett said he did not know how to help at first, being a broke college student. But he was asked by a couple of Nepalese students he had become friends with to help at the tables. He said many Americans get so wrapped up in their own struggles, they forget about the rest of the world. The current death toll stands at more than 5,200 people, but that means thousands more must deal with loss of family members and friends.

Per the current collective bargaining agreement between the association and SIU administration, there is no guarantee of re-appointment for any on-term faculty member. The administration either re-appoints, denies re-appointment or tells the member he or she may be brought back, but it is undecided. Wall said those who fall into the “maybe” category are sometimes notified as late as August.

“Most on-term faculty, and even continuing faculty, teach an awful lot of undergraduate classes and are heavily engaged with students in dayto-day instruction and laboratory learning experiences, for instance, the Clinical Center or WSIU,” Wall said. He said the loss of this staff will greatly diminish students’ experiences, which could hurt enrollment. While most of the 317 members will not know their employment

status until the state budget is finalized — which could happen later this summer — some employees will be notified they will not be re-appointed before then. “It is likely that most term [nontenure track employees] will receive “maybe” letters due to the uncertainty of the budget,” according to the Chancellor’s budget webpage on the SIU website.

Lemonade for leases

Discussion shifts to Baltimore riots, injustice evAn Jones | @EvanJones_DE Amid the controversy regarding deaths by police officers across the U.S., the Zeta Phi Beta sorority hosted “Still I Rise,” a discussion on women’s roles in social injustice Monday night. Stories shared by audience members often strayed from the event's original theme of women's roles in social change but Lolita Mack, president of the graduate chapter of Zeta Phi Beta, said that was not a negative thing.

Sharing personal stories and opinions gave the event another purpose aside from its original intent, she said. The open discussion began with online videos depicting scenes of police officers firing on unarmed AfricanAmerican males, including some who were already detained. The two facilitators of the event, Chasity Jones, vice president of the undergraduate chapter of Zeta Phi Beta, and Aseedaw Deal, a lecturer in the Rehabilitation Institute at

SIU, asked audience members to describe their gut reactions in two words. Words like, “surprised” and “disbelief” were contradicted by others who described the scenes in the videos as, “same old, same old.” The event was scheduled several weeks before the death of Freddie Gray, a Baltimore man who died while in police custody on April 19.

University: anonymous threat against Faner not credible luke Nozicka | @LukeNozicka Following an ambiguous threat made on Yik Yak against Faner Hall early Wednesday, the Department of Public Safety increased its presence near the building. SIU spokeswoman Rae Goldsmith said university police received multiple reports about the post on the social media app, which shows anonymous messages within a 10-mile radius.

"They're not sure there's any credibility to the report and they're investigating," she said. "Our understanding is that it was a fairly vague unspecific threat related to Faner that we've had several people report." Goldsmith said Yik Yak is a problem many college campuses deal with. "This is an ongoing issue with Yik Yak on colleges everywhere that people can post anonymous things," she said.

University spokeswoman Rae Goldsmith said although there are 317 on-term staff members, some will not be subjected to layoffs because departments such as aviation or education are mainly comprised of on-term professors. Wall, who has taught at the university for 15 years, said many on-term appointment faculty are in their third or fourth year, meaning they are nearly continuing appointments. “There is a method for deciding whether a continuing faculty member will be subject to layoff,” he said. “With a continued appointment, there’s more involved to it so it provides an extra set of questions that have to be answered before they’re implemented.” A continued appointment makes slightly more than the average nine-month salary of an on-term appointment, which is about $35,000, Wall said. If all on-term appointments were cut, which is highly improbable, the university would save more than $11 million. The result could be a loss of programs, and could force employees to look for work in the private sector or other universities. “The whole idea seems a little counterproductive, to target in my mind, the most productive, effective and cost efficient workforce the university has,” he said. “There’s a likelihood of fewer course offerings, larger class sizes and delayed graduation — if you have fewer professors, there’s fewer classes.” He also said these cuts would make it hard for the university to attract new professors. “Who is going to come here when they know they will be considered a temp?” Wall said. “I wouldn’t.” He said some on-term appointments are made specifically to serve for one or two semesters but the majority of these staff members have houses in the area and want to maintain a long relationship

"They're very hard to track down.They can post things that scare people and we hope people understand that it is not necessarily a valuable communications tool." While the original post is no longer on the app, someone posted saying: "Hey if you have class in faner tomorrow do not go. Someone just posted in here not to go. Sounds like they are going to shoot up faner. And NO THIS IS NOT A JOKE."

with the university. Dennis Galloway, an on-term appointment in the college of Mass Communication and Media Arts, said he understands why the university presents this potential layoffs, but the uncertainty weighs on him. “It is up in the air so it is kind of hard to plan for the future — not knowing what is going to happen,” said Galloway who is also the faculty adviser for the SIU chapter of National Association of Black Journalists. “No matter what decision will be made, I am a professional and I will do my job through the end of the semester.” While the proposition is detrimental, Wall sympathized with the administration. He said President Randy Dunn and his staff are considering these cuts because of the uncertainty of Illinois’ budget. “They have to put out these letters, and I hope the faculty understands this is largely procedural,” he said. “But it is conceivable that these [layoffs] will happen and could even migrate further.” Wall said the on-term group was one of the first to get layoff warnings because of Friday’s deadline. He said continuing appointments and other faculty could face cuts in the future. There are no immediate plans for continuing appointments, but the university ordered a hiring freeze on all non-tenure track faculty, according the chancellor’s webpage. Although Wall values the on-term appointments and has compassion for the worries they have, he said he does not feel animosity toward Dunn or SIU administration. “They’re affecting a whole lot of people... but we both understand the severity of the situation coming into play,” Wall said. “It’s mostly on the back of a screwed-up state budget. We would stand arm and arm in Springfield with the [administrators] given the opportunity.”

One user responded saying: "I saw that too! Idk how or who to report it to!" Another said: "I called the police." On Twitter, user @BrookeBukovsky tweeted: "There's a cop in faner carrying a big rifle... Okay den. He went straight to the bathroom by the museum. #weird." "Somebody threatening to shoot up faner toma? Yup won't catch me on campus," user @Born_SelfMade tweeted.

This is just one of many times threats have been made on the anonymous app. According to the Washington Post, two University of Southern Mississippi students were charged with felonies because of Yik Yak posts in September. In October, a Towson University student was arrested after threatening to carry out an attack he said would be "Virginia Tech part 2" on the anonymous application, according to the Baltimore Sun.

“If you’re aware of what happens to their family and their friends, then you can realize it’s more than 5,000 people that are affected,” Leverett said. “The people that died are dead, but the people that are living are tremendously affected by those that died.” He said he met Maharjan for the first time Wednesday, but meeting him and learning what happened has made him feel more integrated with the worldwide community. With the end of the semester a few weeks away, Maharjan said he does not plan on going back to Nepal. He said it would cost nearly $5,000 to fly, so he would rather just send them any money he has. “There is no work I can do, I cannot help them P rovided P hoto anymore,” he said. “If I spare some money and send Above are the remains of Maharjan’s home in it to them, that is worth more.” Kahtmandu, Nepal.

DISCUSSION CONTINUED FROM

“The frequency of the killings really highlights the need for this kind of discussion,” said Katrina James, adviser for Zeta Phi Beta. “Just how television exposed injustice in the south, social media is exposing the injustices happening to our African-American males.” Comparing the Baltimore and Ferguson, Mo., riots to the peaceful protests that occurred during the Civil Rights Movement led by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. caused participants to raise the question: Is violence necessary? Even though events in Baltimore and Ferguson started peacefully, looting and fires transpired after days of unrest. “I never condone violence, however I understand how it got to this point,” said James, chief academic adviser for the College of Education. “I can speak from a position of privilege, but people who can’t express themselves through these types of discussions would be more probable to act through violence.”

During the discussion, many in the audience sided with the members of the Baltimore riots, saying if there were no riots, there would not be the same amount of media coverage. Others were not so quick to defend the rioters. “We need to stand with the peaceful protestors,” Deal said. “I believe the riots are counter-productive. It gives people a reason to say ‘you are who we thought you were.’” While most of the 40 audience members were students, one faculty member made his voice heard. “The people who say violence doesn’t solve anything don’t know American history,” the Rev. Joseph A. Brown said. Brown, who teaches Africana studies at the university, said conflicts such as the American Revolution and Civil War are examples of U.S. citizens violence for what they believed in. “Any time you get people talking about issues that matter to them, it’s successful,” Brown said. “All change has to begin somewhere, and I think any conversation of significance is very important.”

Tawl Paul talks starting out, scene changes and The Club Chase Myers | @chasemyers_DE A few Carbondale musicians who have been around long enough to be considered “legends” have their own designated day at a venue, and “Tawl” Paul Fredrick is one of them. Fredrick will perform his signature “Tawl Blues” with his band Slappin’ Henry Blue at 10 p.m. Friday at Tres Hombres. Slappin’ Henry Blue is comprised of Bill Carter on lead guitar, Bill Stillwell on guitar and T Thomas on bass guitar, with Brian Camden on drums and ‘Tawl’ Paul Fredricks on vocals as the band’s remaining two founding members. The Daily Egyptian talked with Fredrick about his experiences with the Carbondale music community. How did you get started with blues and music in general? Well, I’ve always been in to music. Growing up in Chicago, I

got to hear a lot of different kinds of music, but I always drifted toward the blues. I started actually singing down here in Carbondale when I graduated from SIU and would sing in different bands. What blues artists influenced you as you developed your sound? Howlin’ Wolf mainly, and that Chicago-style blues. What is, or was, your favorite Carbondale venue, past or present? “Was” was The Club … It was like seven nights a week. You hated to miss a night. You had to be there. There was always something going on. After it burned down, there was a big void in the downtown scene, but PK’s, now, has kind of taken that over. PK’s is a more local bar and it’s just the people too, you know? Tres Hombres is fun too; I like playing up there. Another thing too is that the wineries help out local bands a lot.

So how would you say the crowds at the bars differ from the wineries? A lot of people who used to come to Carbondale that live just outside of Carbondale don’t come to town anymore, so I see people at the wineries that I haven’t seen in years. They just don’t come to the bars and it’s an older crowd. It’s a more laid back thing, you know, wine drinkers. In what ways has the music scene changed here and how has it stayed the same? It’s never the same. It’s always different, I mean, in the ‘70s country-rock took over, but there’s always been bluegrass, country and blues. Blues was always main stage. It’s always changing and Curtis Connelly and the coalition are really trying to revive the music scene. I think it’s a good idea. What do you want people to take away from one of your shows? Just to have a good time and forget their troubles for a couple hours.

2015 Donley’s NFL Mock Draft thoMas Donley | @tdonleyDE

n athan h oefert | @NathanHoefertDE Tight end MyCole Pruitt catches the ball for a first down Sept. 20, 2014 during the first half of the Salukis’ 35-13 loss against Purdue in West Lafayette, Ind. Pruitt was named best tight end in Missouri Valley Football Conference history as part of the MVFC’s 30-year anniversary celebration while leading the league with 6.8 receptions per game. He is also the MVFC record holder with 211 receptions and 2,601 receiving yards.

Saluki alumnus ready to catch NFL opportunity Brent Meske | @brentmeskeDE When the NFL Draft begins Thursday in Chicago, former Saluki MyCole Pruitt will be in St. Louis waiting on a call. Pruitt — statistically one of SIU’s best receivers all-time — has been predicted to be drafted in any of the seven rounds or not at all by different sources. Pruitt said he has talked with most teams in the league and has no idea when he will be drafted. “I’m going to take it one day at a time,” he said. “I’m ready to take whatever opportunity presents itself.”

SIU football coach Dale Lennon said he will be paying attention and hopes Pruitt is drafted on Friday — rounds two and three — and would be shocked if he went in the first. “If you go Friday, you’re in that bigger salary range,” he said. “The first round would exceed my expectations, but stranger things have happened.” Lennon said he does not think Pruitt’s size will hurt his draft stock because if a team wants a big, blocking tight end — which Pruitt is not — they will get one. “If they want a hybrid... then [Pruitt] is a perfect fit,” Lennon said. “Then size factor is

not a big issue. A high-tempo type offense will want to use his skill set.” Pruitt previously said blocking was one of the aspects of his game he needed to work on. Pruitt is listed as 6 feet 2 inches and 251 pounds. Of the 150 tight ends currently in the NFL, there are six the same height or shorter. There are four tight ends weighing 251 pounds. Although he is shorter than most, Pruitt’s weight is in the majority of tight ends. 49 of 150 tight ends weigh 251 to 260 pounds. For more on this story, please visit www.dailyegyptian.com

Lesser-known Dawgs attempting to live the dream aaron Graff | @Aarongraff_DE Other former Saluki football players hoping to take their talents to the next level do not have the media attention tight end MyCole Pruitt has. At least seven other players have expressed interest in becoming members of the NFL, but at this point it is not up to them. Running back Malcom Agnew is the most notable of the bunch not making many experts’ mock drafts. Agnew rushed for 1,708 yards in his Saluki career for 16 touchdowns. He also received for 329 yards and 3 touchdowns. He suffered a season-ending ankle injury on Oct. 18 against Youngstown State. Agnew played in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl on Jan. 17. He rushed for 53 yards on 8 attempts. He said his agents have been doing a great job getting his name out there. He said he

has a realistic chance of being drafted, and would be willing to sign as an undrafted free agent if he does not get selected. “I’ve actually been really relaxed,” Agnew said. “I haven’t been losing any sleep.” SIU coach Dale Lennon said Agnew has the skill set of an NFL running back. A far less likely draft candidate than Pruitt or Agnew is long snapper Thor Hadfield. Last season, no long snappers were drafted. Only four long snappers have ever been drafted, three of which were listed at different positions. “Anything can happen in the NFL Draft,” Hadfield said. “I think there are only 256 picks, but I think I can potentially be one of them.” For more on this story, please visit www.dailyegyptian.com

n athan h oefert | @NathanHoefertDE Running back Malcolm Agnew runs the ball for a touchdown Aug. 28, 2014 during the Salukis’ 45-0 win against Taylor University at Saluki Stadium. Agnew rushed for 145 yards and 2 touchdowns on 7 carries during the game. He led the team with 820 rushing yards and averaged 102 yards per game during the 2014 season.

Here are my predictions for the way the first 32 picks will shake out. If you think I’m wrong, I’m open to discuss the picks on Twitter or through email. 1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – QB Jameis Winston, Florida State Bucs coach Lovie Smith has said several times his team is not set on taking Winston No. 1 overall. This is just an attempt to drum up enough trade interest to get an offer too big to pass up. Tampa Bay will not get such an offer and will end up taking Winston, its man from the start. 2. TRADE San Diego Chargers – QB Marcus Mariota, Oregon The most highly-speculated draft day trade will go down with Philip Rivers heading to the Tennessee Titans along with San Diego’s first round pick for the No. 2 and No. 33 picks. With the Chargers possibly headed to Los Angeles, General Manager Tom Telesco will decide four years of Mariota is a better option than the one year he will get out of Rivers. 3. Jacksonville Jaguars – WR Amari Cooper, Alabama Jacksonville will add another offensive weapon for second-year signal caller Blake Bortles to pair with free-agent acquisition tight end Julius Thomas. 4. Oakland Raiders – WR Kevin White, West Virginia Just like the Jags want a receiving threat for their young quarterback, the Raiders need a target for Derek Carr. Cooper may be the better football player of the two, but White, who ran the 40-yard dash in 4.35 seconds at the NFL Scouting Combine, better fits the mold of a Raiders’ draft pick. 5. Washington Redskins – DT Leonard Williams, USC The two defensive tackles on Washington’s roster have combined for 8 tackles in five seasons. Williams will bring a much-needed physical presence to the Redskins’ interior line. 6. New York Jets – OLB/DE Vic Beasley, Clemson 7. Chicago Bears – OT Brandon Scherff, Iowa 8. Atlanta Falcons – DE/OLB Dante Fowler, Florida 9. New York Giants – DT Danny Shelton, Washington 10. St. Louis Rams – WR DeVante Parker, Louisville 11. Minnesota Vikings – CB Trae Waynes, Michigan State 12. Cleveland Browns – LB Shaq Thompson, Washington 13. New Orleans Saints – DE/OLB Bud Dupree, Kentucky 14. Miami Dophins – S Landon Collins, Alabama 15. San Francisco 49ers – LB Eric Kendricks, UCLA 16. Houston Texans – WR Dorial Green-Beckham, Missouri 17. TRADE Tennessee Titans – OT La’el Collins, LSU 18. Kansas City Chiefs – DE/OLB Randy Gregory, Nebraska 19. Cleveland Browns – DT Malcom Brown, Texas 20. Philadelphia Eagles – DE Arik Armstead, Oregon 21. Cincinnati Bengals – WR Breshad Perriman, Central Florida 22. Pittsburgh Steelers – CB Kevin Johnson, Wake Forest 23. Detroit Lions – OT T.J. Clemmings, Pittsburgh 24. Arizona Cardinals – RB Melvin Gordon, Wisconsin 25. Carolina Panthers – OT D.J. Humphries, Florida 26. Baltimore Ravens – RB Todd Gurley, Georgia 27. Dallas Cowboys – DT Jordan Phillips, Oklahoma 28. Denver Broncos – TE Maxx Williams, Minnesota 29. Indianapolis Colts – CB/S Jalen Collins, LSU 30. Green Bay Packers – LB Bernardrick McKinney, Mississippi State 31. New Orleans Saints – G A.J. Cann, South Carolina 32. New England Patriots – DE Shane Ray, Missouri 127.
