Benoit shows proof of successful initiatives at chancellor open forum luke nozicka | @LukeNozicka When Pam Benoit, the third of four finalists hoping to become the campus’ next chancellor, spoke at her open forum Monday, she presented evidence of a strategy implemented at Ohio University that increased enrollment. Benoit, executive vice president and provost at OU, is also the sole finalist for the chancellor position at the University of Colorado Denver after two of the top three finalists withdrew, according to OU’s student-run newspaper, the Post. She visited CU Denver on April 28 and 29 for her open forum interview for the position, the paper reported on Friday. Administrator with a plan for enrollment growth Enrollment at Ohio University has increased from 30,000 to more than 38,000 since Benoit became Ohio University’s provost in July 2009, Meera Komarraju, co-chair of the chancellor search committee, said during her introduction of the finalist. Benoit said OU created a fiveyear enrollment plan for students, including transfers, ones from outof-state, in-state and community college students. To better recruit people attending community college, Benoit said Ohio University places “relationship managers” on the 19 campuses OU has partnerships with. “They’re actually physically present on the community colleges so that they feel like that person is part of their staff,” she said. “And those students at the community college already feel like they are an Ohio University student. We give them the garb. ... They are already ready to come to Ohio University when they are at the community college.” Benoit said Ohio is also recruiting students “earlier than ever before.” “One of the things that we’ve done is we’ve completely restructured our scholarship program, and now we use data analytics to try to figure out, ‘What

will it take to yield a particular student?’” she said to the crowd in the Student Center Auditorium. “You can’t wait for them to come to you anymore.” She said while SIU is on the right track, there is room for improvement when retaining students. Benoit said Ohio University has professional advisers to accomplish this. “How do we make sure that we’re doing an early intervention to try to make sure that we’re getting to that student before they’re thinking about leaving us?” she asked the crowd. “All of those things can be done even more intensively... than you’re doing now.” Asked about strategies she would implement to improve
the university’s connection to the city of Carbondale, Benoit gave examples of how OU does this, noting she meets with the mayor of Athens, Ohio, to discuss projects about cleaning the city. She said Ohio University staffers and city police patrol streets together during Halloween. “I understand you had a Halloween project too,” Benoit said jokingly. “Together our Athens Police Department and our OU Police Department and a lot of our staff are out. ... And I’ve got a walkie talkie and I’m calling in when I see something that should not be happening.” Benoit — who earned a master’s degree in communication from Central Michigan University and a
doctorate degree in communication from Wayne State University — said unfortunately, she has experience regarding budget cuts. While it is not nearly as much as the $44 million that would be slashed from the Carbondale campus if Gov. Bruce Rauner’s budget passes the General Assembly, Benoit said $11 million was cut from OU’s state funding during her first year at Ohio. To deal with the cuts, she said administrators talked about a set of “budget principals.” “One of the budget principals was that the academic core needed to be protected as much as possible,” she said. “All of the units were asked to prepare scenarios. ... They all were asked, ‘What were
the things they thought they could do that would have the least affect on students?’” Benoit said the scenarios were then shared by spreadsheets with the entire campus, and OU held open forums to discuss the changes. “One of the things I said to my president at the time was that I thought we needed to discuss it on campus, and his initial reaction was, ‘Are you crazy?’ ... I said, ‘Yes, I really think it’s important... the campus needs to understand what we’re grappling with,’” she said. “At the end of that process one of the comments that we got back from several people was, ‘I don’t like some of the decisions that ended up being made, but I really liked the process.’” Please see BENOIT | 3
Komarraju named dean of CoLA luke nozicka | @LukeNozicka
Meera Komarraju
p rovided p hoto
Meera Komarraju, chairwoman of the Department of Psychology, will become the College of Liberal Arts’ next dean on July 1 pending approval of the SIU Board of Trustees, according to an SIU press release Monday. Psychology professor Jane Swanson has been serving as interim dean of the college since Kimberly Kempf-Leonard began as the dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of
@dailyegyptian
Louisiana in August. In the release, interim Provost Susan Ford said Komarraju is a respected professional on campus and in her field. “She is an exceptional faculty member known for both teaching and research, and she brings to her new role a commitment to the future of the college as well the university,” Ford said. Komarraju, who co-chairs the chancellor search committee, joined the university as a lecturer in 1986. She holds two doctoral degrees, one
in applied social psychology from the University of Cincinnati and the other in industrial-organizational psychology from Osmania University in India, according to the release. “Her research interests include cognitive, non-cognitive and sociocultural factors related to motivation and performance, teaching self-efficacy, and the influence of ethnicity and gender on perceptions of leadership effectiveness,” the press release says. “In addition, she has earned
SIU’s university-wide Outstanding Teacher of the Year Award and has twice been its nominee for U.S. Professor of the Year.” In the SIU release, Komarraju said she considers serving as the dean of the university’s largest college a privilege. “I am excited about working with our amazing students, talented faculty, dedicated staff, and other stakeholders and am confident we can collectively work toward realizing CoLA’s full potential,” she said.
SIU police will meet and talk with students during “Coffee with a Cop” from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. today at Starbucks in the Student Center.

Chancellor’s office seeks input on potential cuts saM Beard | @SamBeard_DE Students, faculty and other community members have a series of opportunities to offer their input on budgetary issues to President Randy Dunn and other SIU administrators. The first of three town hall meetings will be from 9 to 10 a.m. on Wednesday, the second and third will be from 2 to 3 p.m. and 5 to 6 p.m. on Thursday. All three will take place in the Student Center Auditorium. The town hall meetings will allow for open-forum discussion about the Illinois budget, its potential effects on SIU and the
current preparatory measures the university is taking to mitigate prospective cuts, University Spokeswoman Rae Goldsmith said. This comes in the wake of Gov. Bruce Rauner’s proposed budgetary cuts to social services, including higher education. If passed, Illinois universities would lose $387 million of state appropriations, which amounts to a $62 million reduction from the university system, of which $44 million would be cut from the Carbondale campus. As a result, the university sent notices asking various units on campus to envision scenarios

Audience members can offer comments and ideas to Dunn and various members of the 25 person budget committee. All three meetings will follow the same format.

Carbondale police investigate fight at Aspen Courts
Studying tobacco’s affect on brainwaves
austin Miller | @AMiller_DE Carbondale Police responded to a fight in progress Sunday evening at Aspen Court Apartments, according to a CPD press release. Officers found black females and a black male wearing a LeBron James jersey attacked the victim after the suspects were asked to leave the property. The investigation is ongoing and no serious injuries were reported. Anyone with additional information is encouraged to call Carbondale Police at 618-4573200 or Crime Stoppers at 618-549-2677.
February pizza delivery robber convicted Marissa novel | @MarissaNovelDE A man responsible for robbing several pizza delivery drivers in February has been convicted of armed robbery and attempted armed robbery. The Carbondale Police Department was notified on Feb. 22 by a local restaurant delivery driver that a man had threatened the driver with a knife and demanded of all of the driver’s money and pizza. Less than one week later, police had Joshua Lewis, 20, of Carbondale, in custody being caught in the act of another attempted robbery. CPD notified local restaurants on Feb. 26 to be on the lookout for a specific phone number which had been used to place orders that resulted in robberies, according to the Jackson County State’s Attorney press released issued May 4. The same day, a local restaurant received a call from the number and the police department set up a surveillance perimeter around the delivery destination and an officer rode along with the delivery driver. “Upon arrival at the delivery location, the defendant began to approach the delivery vehicle and the Carbondale Police officer got out, identified himself as a policeman, and told the defendant to stop,” the release states. Lewis attempted to flee and was tazed and arrested; his knife was found on the ground beside him. He later admitted to committing the other robberies. Lewis received two sentences of six years at the Illinois Department of corrections, which will be served concurrently. The sentences are day-to-day, which means one day will be taken off his sentence for every day he goes without an incident while in prison. Upon his release, Lewis will have a mandatory supervision period of three years.

Son of Trueblood’s namesake dies Daily egyPtian staff

OU’s administration took more cuts during this process, as opposed to injuring academic units, Benoit said. The university froze positions instead of eliminating faculty or taking furloughs — like SIU did in 2011— although some staffers were cut, she said. Asked about student engagement, Benoit said she participates in open discussions with students called “pizza with the provost,”
from SIU-Carbondale including a BS in Speech Communications in 1979, an Associates in Computer Information in 1983 and a Master’s in Higher Education in 1996.” Trueblood became the Residence Hall Director at Arkansas State University from 1996 to 2003 and Director of Residency at Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kan., from 2004 to 2012. He was
working for the Department of Veterans Affairs in Tulsa, Okla., as a claims examiner and enjoyed his work, according to the obituary. “Everyone knew Lee as very conscious and caring and one of the kindest and gentlest of God’s souls,” it reads. “His life was celebrated at the Full Counsel Ministries Church, 723 South 3rd Street, Muskogee, Oklahoma on April 11, 2015.”
where people openly ask questions and talk about campus issues. First generation student and mediator While she did not speak about her personal life as much as the first two candidates, Benoit — who described herself as an optimistic realist — is a first generation college student. She said her parents saved money so she could attend school. “They did not understand what it meant to go to college other than to say that they knew that it was extremely important to have a college education,” she said.
Asked about what gives her a unique advantage above the other candidates, Benoit — who was appointed vice provost for advanced studies and dean of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri in 2006 — responded: “I’m a mediator.” While at Mizzou, she completed training to become a certified mediator at the university’s Center for Dispute Resolution, she said. “I don’t go ahead and do it officially anymore,” she said while answering the last question asked at the open forum. “I do it informally pretty regularly.”

Domhnall Gleeson in Ex Machina
Pulse
Provided Photo | Universal Pictures International
‘Ex Machina’ is a modern classic Jacob Pierce | @JacobPierce1_DE Hard science fiction is a genre known for questioning technology and the advancement of the world. The genre tends to contrast the more futuristic, extraordinary feeling of science fantasy, making a more grounded, realistic think piece. In a world of ever advancing technology, this medium has become commonplace. “Ex Machina” (Rated R; 107 min) directed by Alex Garland, is more Stanley Kubrick than George Lucas. It is smart, witty and thrilling all at the same time. Caleb, played by Domhnall Gleeson, is a computer programmer working for an eccentric billionaire, played by Oscar Isaac. The programmer wins a contest through the billionaire’s company, allowing him to spend a week with his boss, seeing how the genius lives. Once Caleb arrives at his boss’ estate, the billionaire shows him his new invention: an artificial intelligence device named Ava, played by Alicia Vikander. As Caleb starts to test the validity of Ava’s existence, questions of the billionaire’s intentions arise. The programmer soon realizes the situation may not be
what it seems. This film is amazing and will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. As the plot twists and the end begins to unfold, it is hard to measure how captivated you feel. It practically gives you a panic attack with each event unfolding, only calming down as the credits roll. The comparison between “Ex Machina” and a Kubrick film does not stop at its intelligence. Alex Garland, the writer of “28 Days Later,” has always brought a cold quality to his work similar to the late director’s style. Garland’s directorial debut does not disappoint in this area. The movie is frigid, both in tone and in set design. It may as well have been set on the ice planet Hoth with the way it flows and the bleak situation of its characters. Because of its tone, doom is obvious for the main protagonists. This connects the audience to Caleb, the billionaire Nathan and Ava despite their flaws. It extenuates what makes each character so likeable. Each individual is dynamic, imperfect and human. A film in which even the robotic character inhabits relatable traits, showcases a writer/director
who understands how to create compelling roles. Caleb is played empathically by Gleeson. He is a 26-yearold fighting loneliness and awkwardness; these characteristics describe most young adults today. You love and hate him at the same time, wishing you could be there in his worst moments. Isaac plays Nathan, the eccentric billionaire, who gained his wealth through a Facebooklike social media invention. The actor inhabits the role we assume these billionaires would be like; a mixture of Tony Stark and Howard Hughes, all in a Mark Zuckerberg skin. And with any extraordinary type, comes all the flaws which build them. Nathan is an alcoholic, who regularly keeps information from Caleb and Ava. When the artificial intelligence warns Caleb of Nathan’s “intentions,” it is all one can do to give him the benefit of the doubt. Yet, the character continually pulls viewers in. He is funny, smart and down to earth. Nathan could have a conversation with anyone, while also creating an android out of nothing. Even when he becomes the villain of the film, in dynamic antagonist fashion, it is hard to hate him fully.

Saluki baseball built for future, not present ThoMas donley | @tdonleyDE With seven upperclassmen and nobody with two full seasons of Division I experience on the roster, the 2015 season has been full of growing pains for SIU baseball. The six Salukis with the highest number of games played this year are all freshmen or sophomores, including freshman shortstop Chase Slone and sophomore second baseman Will Farmer, who have started every game. Of the 10 Salukis with enough at-bats to qualify for conference leaderboards, seven are freshmen or sophomores, giving SIU the highest percentage in the Missouri Valley Conference. The second highest belongs to Missouri State, which has three underclassmen its regular lineup. Of the four Salukis who have hit multiple home runs this season, three are freshmen. Freshman catcher Nick Hutchins is the team leader with three. Freshman infielder Greg Lambert leads SIU with 23 RBIs and is second on the team in batting average at .303. He has been the Salukis’ regular No. 3 hitter since March 17. Lambert said despite this, he is not satisfied with his performance. “There are some goals that I set for myself that I haven’t reached yet,” Lambert said. “I’m not quite there, but I’ve definitely learned a lot. It’s been a great experience.” Lambert’s goals include higher RBI totals in relation to his number of games played. Lambert said adjusting to the speed of the college game was the biggest change he had to make this year. “I thought my high school team played quick,” Lambert said. “Everything’s super fast, and you have to develop quickly.” The large number of inexperienced players has contributed to the Salukis’ 11-38 record. Senior pitcher Aaron Hauge said the team’s record is frustrating at times, but not a surprise. “Going into this year, we knew what it was going to be with how many young guys we had,” Hauge said. “I think the main thing for these guys is I hope they grow over the length of the season, and I think it’s showing.”
C arringTon s Pires | @CSpiresDE This season, SIU’s freshman and sophomore players see the most field time on the team. First base freshman Greg Lambert has seen the results of this, as he leads the team with 57 hits and 23 RBI’s in 188 plate appearances.
SIU coach Ken Henderson said his team’s youth has not kept it from being talented, but it has presented disadvantages. “I think you’ll see a natural physical maturation,” Henderson said. Guys will continue to grow and get bigger. We do things right right now, but we’re just physically overmatched.” While the young offense is showing promise, Henderson said the team’s performance on the mound is another story. “We have to pitch better,” Henderson said. “And I think we will. We’ll learn from what
we’ve done this year.” The Salukis’ team ERA is an MVC-worst of 6.24. Among pitchers with multiple appearances, Hauge and fellow senior Bryce Sablotny have two of SIU’s best three ERAs. Freshman pitcher Colin Holderman said this year has been a learning experience. “There’s been a lot of ups and downs, with the youth we have,” Holderman said. “In my first outing I left the ball up, and so the most important lesson I’ve learned is to keep the ball down.” Along with the incoming freshmen, SIU baseball will see several players return in 2016.
Sophomore pitcher Kyle Pauly, freshman pitcher Austin Covers and sophomore second baseman Connor Kopach will return after sitting out most of the 2015 season with injuries. Covers pitched one perfect inning Feb. 15 at Texas Christian University before being shut down for the season with an elbow injury. Pauly went 2-3 with 2 saves and a 1.55 ERA his freshman year. He started three games in 2015 before undergoing Tommy John surgery. For more on this story, please see www.dailyegyptian.com.
Three of five transfers find new homes aaron graff | @AaronGraff_DE
Jalen Pendleton to Minnesota State Chaz Glotta to Northern Colorado K.C. Goodwin to Union University
SIU men’s basketball had five players announce they would transfer in March, and three of them have found new schools. Freshman guard Chaz Glotta signed his Letter of Intent to play for Northern Colorado but will sit out next season because of the NCAA rule that requires players to sit out a year if they transfer to a different school within their division. Glotta averaged 2.9 points a game and hit 8 3-pointers in 18 games. Junior guard Jalen Pendleton signed to play at Minnesota State. He does not have to sit out since
he is moving down a division. He expects to graduate next year. Pendleton averaged 6.6 points and 2.9 rebounds a game in 32 games. “I’m definitely going there to make an impact,” Pendleton said. “A major impact.” Pendleton said after he graduates he plans on going overseas to further his basketball career. Freshman guard K.C. Goodwin signed his Letter of Intent to play at Union University in Jackson, a Division II school. “I fit their program,” Goodwin said. “They told me what they wanted. They saw what I could do.” Pendleton and Goodwin made
their decisions based on playing time. Both said they will play more at their new schools. Freshman forward Jordan Caroline is looking at Nevada, Cincinnati, Xavier and Minnesota. He will have to sit out a year if he picks any of those schools, according to Chris Murray with the Reno Gazette Journal. Caroline averaged 9.2 points and 6.2 rebounds a game his freshman season in 33 games. Freshman guard Deion Lavender could not be reached for an interview. Lavender averaged 6.6 points a game and recorded 26 assists in 32 games.
