This is the popcorn you’re looking for

Morgan Timms | @Morgan_Timms Tiffany DeShazor, a graduate student in social work from Gurnee, fills bags of popcorn Wednesday during the Student Programming Council’s Star Wars movie night at Saluki Stadium. DeShazor, who works for Saluki Athletics, said this was the first “Star Wars” movie she had ever watched. “People might be shocked about that,” DeShazor said. “The movies were always so long. But I like it so far. It seems interesting. … It’s a pretty good opportunity that I get to work and get money and watch the movie.”

Student hospitalized after falling off cliff in Giant City BILL LUKITSCH | @Bill_LukitschDE

An SIUC student was airlifted to a St. Louis hospital Monday after she fell off a cliff in Giant City State Park. The woman fell about 40 to 50 feet while she and two other students were climbing an off-trail bluff near the Giant City Nature Trail, according to a press release from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. The two other students who were climbing ahead called for emergency services after

they heard the victim scream, said Chris Young, a spokesman for the department. Cobden firefighters and Union County Ambulance Service responded to the call about 11 a.m. Monday, Young said, and site personnel transported the victim to the rescue helicopter, which brought her to the trauma center in St. Louis. The victim, whose identity and condition had not been released as of Wednesday evening, is a member of the Delta Phi Epsilon sorority

chapter at SIU. Kendra Wiegand, who belongs to the same sorority, said the accident came as a shock to the other chapter members. “We’re definitely a little bit shaken up,” said Wiegand, a junior from Highland studying animal science. “But we’re all rallying behind her and we’re happy to see all the support from the other Greek organizations at SIU.” Bill Lukitsch can be reached at blukitsch@dailyegyptian.com or 618-536-3329.

Students silently protest executive BOT meeting REBEKAH SANDERS | @RSanders_DE

Four students silently protested the SIU Board of Trustees executive meeting Wednesday to express discontent with interim Chancellor Brad Colwell’s efforts to create a diversity committee. The silent protest’s aim was to force the university administration to better define diversity and inclusiveness at SIUC. Colwell announced Tuesday a plan to increase diversity and improve race relations on campus that included a diversity committee and surveys to

gauge the racial climate on campus. Donald Chamberlain III, a graduate student and the designated speaker representing the students, demanded the board define inclusive excellence and diversity and called for the campus’ affirmative action committee to immediately convene. Other demands to the administrators included equal representation of students on the diversity plan committee and an admission that there is institutional racism on SIUC’s campus. Please see BOT | 2

Playing to sing

Jacob Wiegand | @JacobWiegand_DE Kathleen Shaffner, of Carbondale, plays guitar at the Carbondale Farmers Market on Wednesday near the town square. Shaffner said she comes from a big family where everyone sings. Her family used to have get-togethers with the neighbors where they would all sing. “Every time we all just started eating and drinking and everybody would just come right over to the piano and sing all night at the top of their lungs,” she said. Shaffner, who has been playing guitar since she was in the eighth grade, said she came to Carbondale in the ‘70s and has been here ever since.

Southern Illinois coal plants could idle after electricity price drop JACOB BARKER St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Blaming a recent electricity auction that it says failed to cover its costs, the largest power plant owner in downstate Illinois is threatening to shutter approximately 30 percent of the power plant capacity in the region. Houston-based Dynegy Inc. said Tuesday it planned to shut down at least 1,800 megawatts of coal-fired power at two of its downstate Illinois power plants. On top of that, it says it is considering shutting down another 500 megawatts of coal-fired capacity. The decision follows Dynegy’s announcement last year that it planned to shut down its 465-megawatt Wood River coal plant in Alton. That plant’s retirement will occur June 1. While aging coal plants across the country are retiring, Dynegy says the dynamic in Illinois has more to do with electricity markets than pollution controls or natural gas prices. And it says Illinois lawmakers can act to save the plants, joining big nuke operator Exelon in putting pressure on lawmakers to help power plants struggling with low electricity prices.

“The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem,” Chamberlain said. The diversity plan presented by the chancellor did not include the students, Chamberlain said, which is not ideal as he advocates for student involvement in the decisions concerning them. “The problems we are facing on campus cannot be fixed by a one-stopshop, one-email-deal solution,” he said.

The shutdowns announced Tuesday would reduce capacity at Dynegy’s Baldwin coal plant an hour southeast of St. Louis and its Newton, coal plant two hours east of St. Louis. Dynegy acquired the Newton plant in 2013 from Ameren Illinois when the St. Louis-based utility sold its five Illinois coal plants to Dynegy and exited the Illinois power generation business. The Midcontinent Independent System Operator, known as MISO, must determine the shutdowns don’t hurt the transmission system’s reliability before giving Dynegy the green light. Dynegy’s decision follows a drop in the price for a component of electricity in Downstate Illinois. MISO holds an annual auction to set so-called capacity prices, fees paid to power plant owners to ensure they’re ready to meet electricity demand at peak times. Last year, the southern Illinois price set by the auction jumped ninefold. The Illinois Attorney General and public interest groups eventually lodged a complaint with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, accusing Dynegy of owning enough

power in the region to manipulate electricity prices. In response, FERC ordered MISO to redesign parts of the auction so more power from beyond the region could bid into the market. Following that, prices dropped by half in the most recent auction, held last month. Unlike most of MISO, where utilities like Ameren Missouri are regulated by state commissions, downstate Illinois is deregulated, and customers can shop for electricity. Dynegy argues that because regulated utilities are not dependent on the auctions to recover their costs, letting them bid too much of their power into southern Illinois depresses prices. Dynegy says allowing it to join PJM Interconnection, the grid operator for Chicago and Mid Atlantic states, would put it on equal footing with other power plant owners. Many of the states in PJM are deregulated. Another solution would be to make downstate Illinois a regulated electricity market again, Dynegy CEO Bob Flexon said in prepared remarks on the company’s website.

“This is going to be something that we are working on on a daily basis.” SIU spokesperson Rae Goldsmith said the administration is trying to come up with answers to students’ concerns. “It’s an example of what we have been hearing, what they’re saying and responding in ways that we can respond,” she said. Newly elected SIUC Student Trustee Naomi Tolbert said Wednesday that she in favor of the diversity plan. Tolbert, a junior from Carbondale studying political science and international affairs, said she believes

his diversity committee will be helpful in combating racial tensions on campus, not just for students today, but for future students. Working with both students and administration is key for creating and continuing this committee, she said. Various board committees will come together starting at 9 a.m. Thursday in Student Center Ballroom B before the trustees’ regular meeting.

Drawing into summer

Autumn Suyko | @AutumnSuyko_DE Thomas Rensing, a freshman from Albers studying computer science, works on a still-life charcoal drawing for his final project Wednesday in the Studio Arts Building. “This is an amazing class because you learn a lot of drawing foundations,” Rensing said. “I was so bad when I first started this class, but now I’m not, it’s cool.” Rensing said he has always had a calling to art. “I like to express myself,” Rensing said. “I do a bunch of weird stuff all the time and it ends up being cool.”

Rec center yoga classes can help save stressed students BREY MONG-DELANE @BREYMONG_DE

As finals are approaching, sometimes it can be hard to relax or find a way to manage stress, but yoga just might be what students need in this final stretch. For SIU students curious about the activity, the Recreation Center offers free yoga for students four times a week. "Having done yoga for a while, I can tell the changes and improvements that it made to my everyday life," said Erin Cotter, a yoga group fitness instructor. "I could do things more comfortably, noticing that my posture was better. I just felt better all the time." Yoga has been practiced for more than 5,000 years, according to Samuel Geoffrey's 2008 book "The Origins of Yoga and Tantra," and is known for its many health benefits. Yoga can reduce stress and weight, while improving relaxation, focus, flexibility and posture. Cardiovascular and circulatory health can also benefit from the exercise, according to osteopathic.org. Cotter, a sophomore from Murphysboro studying English education, said many people may slouch, and yoga helps with correcting posture as well as toning and strengthening muscles. "Not only does yoga help physically, but it helps cardiovascular symptoms and helps lower metabolism," Cotter said. "Yoga helps your breathing slow down, helps relax you and gives you a chance to stop stressing out about school. Take an hour for yourself, enjoy your own body and clear your mind." The yoga class offers three different levels made for everyone, said Tori Gusewelle, a fitness program assistant at the Recreation Center. Instructors teach a basic level, an advanced level and a beginners level, meeting the needs of every participant that comes

in. The higher level encompasses more intense stretches and exercises while the lower level gets people acclimated to the activity.

"You can come without any background," said Gusewelle, a senior from Edwardsville studying human

nutrition and dietetics. "You see people of all different shapes and sizes, experiences and ages." Gusewelle described the class as "a whole hour of spiritual, mind and body activity." The instructors talk participants through relaxation and breathing cues, telling students when and how to breathe, trying to motivate by reminding them why they came to yoga. The yoga instructors encourage all campus and community members to try it. "Everyone is intimidated, but no one will know it's your first time — there are people of all different levels," Guswelle said. More information about the fitness schedule, visit reccenter.siu.edu.

How to avoid being struck by a bike in 7 steps, according to this bicyclist TIERRA CARPENTER | @TierraMC_

As someone who has ridden a bike on campus for the past two years, I have noticed a lot of hostility toward bike riders from pedestrians and motorists. Some students have even gone as far as saying people shouldn’t be allowed to ride bikes on campus. Bikes are a widely used way to minimize travel time on campus even though they can sometimes be dangerous for myself and others. There are approximately 3,100 active bike registrations on campus, said Eli Epplin, assistant coordinator of SIU’s Parking Division. I dream of a campus where bike riders and pedestrians can safely coexist, love and respect each other. I think that starts with us figuring out how we can avoid butting heads, and I mean that literally because that may actually happen if we don’t get a handle on reducing the likeliness of collisions. Starting with pedestrians, here is a list of six things you can do to avoid getting hit by a bike. Look up, and not at your phone I can’t even count how many times I have almost run into someone because they were looking at their cell phone instead of their surroundings. I know it’s the 21st century, and humans may have shorter attention spans than goldfish, but at least try to look up every once in awhile to see if a person on a bike is peddling toward you. You may think it’s easy for them to swerve around you, but it’s not so easy when there are others near who also aren’t paying attention. Don’t stand in the middle of walkways when having conversations I shouldn’t have to wait for people to move just to get through an area that would be open if they weren’t using it as their personal meeting place. At least one thing

Reagan Gavin | Daily Egyptian

bike riders and pedestrians should be able to agree on is that this is rude to literally everyone around, and no one likes the people that do this. If you’re walking on the bridge try to follow the writing on the pathway that designates the sides you should walk on There is at least one place on campus that has specific sides for those who are walking and those who are riding, and that is the bridge between East Campus and the main campus. You may not have noticed because they should probably be repainted (in a color other than white), but on the right side of the bridge you will see walk and on the left side you’ll see bike. Follow these and you may be able to make everyone’s least favorite part of the day, crossing the bridge a little less painful. When walking toward or away from the bridge, always be extra cautious One of the best, most rewarding feelings for bike riders after making it over the bridge is the 20 mph victory cruise we get to take at the end of it. Now wouldn’t that feeling be a lot worse if we ran

into a person at the end instead of smoothly gliding into a spot on a bike rack? That’s why it is crucial that no one ever stands on either end of the bridge unaware of their surroundings. I promise you, you are not safe there. Of course the person on the bike should also be paying attention and aware of any upcoming pedestrians, but they also shouldn’t be traveling at such a fast speed in the first place. Since we all know they aren’t going to slow down, take your safety in your own hands and look out. Don’t walk with headphones so loud you can’t hear your surroundings The Illinois Bicycle Rules of the road book suggests that when approaching a pedestrian from behind cyclists slow down and give an audible signal to make them aware of their presence before passing, but most people can’t hear the warning due to headphone usage. I am one cyclist who tries to give us a good name by being as polite as possible when it comes to passing pedestrians, but it gets

a little hard when they can’t even hear your kind gestures. Way too many people walk around with headphones on, oblivious to the world around them and this is an overall threat to your safety, not only because of bikes, but also emergency vehicles and anything else that may come your way when you can’t hear. It’s smart to listen to only one headphone in public just so you can avoid any mishaps because of hearing obstruction. Besides, you never know when one of us riders might actually want to be polite, and say excuse me, instead of almost running into you when passing by. Try not to walk in the middle of the sidewalk You never know when a bike rider might cruise on to the sidewalk so you want to always be aware. If you insist on having in headphones or being on your phone while walking, the least you could do is stick to one side of the sidewalk. This makes it so if you and a cyclist are on the sidewalk alone, they won’t have to call out to you to move over or swerve on and off

Admittedly I should be studying right now instead of writing this opinion, however, after reading Tuesday’s letter to the editor about the “clear discrimination against white males,” I couldn’t in good conscience stay quiet any longer. As I wrap up the final days of my third year here at SIUC, I found myself looking at the miniaturized photo of my graduating class. I am one of over 70-plus white males in my graduating law school class. As I look at the photo, I recognize that it takes a lot less time to count the black males in my class photo — one. Now my math isn’t what it used to be, but it looks like the substandard policies of SIUC

have yet to make an impact from where I am standing. We, as students are a lot of things — poor, tired, stressed, and slightly neurotic this time of year — but if it’s one thing we are not, it is divided. While I think the administration has been ignorant at times, and even deaf to the issues of diversity and inclusivity, I at no time have seen intentional acts suppressing any of our rights. If anything, I’ve seen the university support our rights by allowing the May 2 march and the peace rally and the sit-in, as well as other protests on campus this year. As a religiously conservative white male I have never felt anything but

welcomed at SIU. This is pretty much because SIUC was built for people like me: I don’t have to explain my success to any of the 70 other members of my graduating class; I don’t have to worry if those same members think that I got here because of affirmative action or some hand out; I don’t even have to worry if my professors use any of my mistakes to judge everyone else like me. I’m welcomed here without even trying. What I don’t understand is how anyone could think that our campus’ issue of racism and inequality are recent. The unspeakable video that was posted on YouTube last week, didn’t come from nowhere — it was but one of

the grass to get around you. I would like to direct my last tip to cyclists. The most important rule is … DON’T HIT THE PEDESTRIANS! The pedestrians have the rightof-way to all vehicles, including bikes. Please show the same amount of politeness, respect and awareness that we expect of them, and we should all be able to exist on a collision-free campus. Here are a few rules you may not know for riding a bike on campus, according to the 2015/2016 SIU Parking Division Regulations. “Persons riding bicycles on campus shall practice courteous, defensive riding, giving due consideration both for pedestrians and for conditions that require traveling at safe speeds and having their bicycles under control at all times,” according to section 11-101 B. “The operator of a bicycle shall yield to pedestrians in all situations of conflicting bicycle/ pedestrian traffic. Pedestrians are prohibited from walking in a designated bicycle-only lane,” according to section 11-102. “No person shall operate on campus a bicycle that is in such unsafe condition as to endanger any person or property or that is not equipped as required by the Illinois Vehicle Code,” according to section 11-103. Any person who receives a citation for failure to yield to pedestrians will be charged a $4 fine, according to section 11-104 and section 12-101. Lastly, if a cyclist and pedestrian collide, “the responding officer takes a statement from both parties involved and evaluates the circumstances around the incident to determine if one or both parties involved are at fault in some way,” Epplin said. Tierra Carpenter can be reached at tcarpenter@dailyegyptian.com or 618-536-3325.

Dear fellow white people BRADNON WOUDENBERG | SIU student

Dear fellow white people: “In plain English, to “discriminate” means to distinguish, single out, or make a distinction. In everyday life, when faced with more than one option, we discriminate in arriving at almost every decision we make. But in the context of civil rights law, unlawful discrimination refers to unfair or unequal treatment of an individual (or group) based on certain characteristics, including: Age; Disability; Ethnicity; Gender; Marital status; National origin; Race; Religion, and Sexual orientation,” according to the Civil Rights section of the Find Law website.

a long line of issues that speak to the atmosphere of inequality that seemingly exists at SIUC. I sincerely hope that my fellow students hold on to what was accomplished at the peace rally on May 2: a unified example of how students can peaceably assemble with respect, while still maintaining their voice to call for change. If our university was really suppressing our right to free speech, we wouldn’t have heard their voice at all. Brandon Woudenberg, a third-year law student from Carbondale, is also president of Graduate and Professional Student Council.

Saluki women’s basketball team packing a punch in the offseason THOMAS DONLEY | @TDONLEYDE

SIU women’s basketball players are floating like butterflies and stinging like bees this spring. The Salukis have incorporated a boxing regimen into their offseason cardio workouts as a new way to stay in shape. "We were trying to find something different to do in the offseason," senior forward Carlie Corrigan said. "Our coaches don’t really like to run us really hard at this point in the season, so we wanted something fun that would be a good workout." The Dawgs have been working with Recreation Center instructor Tim Crouse to improve their upper body strength. "I’d say they’re doing fantastic, because they’re all great athletes," Crouse said. "All good athletes I’ve had before have always done well because they naturally come along very well with it." The workout mainly consists of players alternating between punching bags and small pads held by a partner. Crouse said he does not focus on footwork as much with the team because of the footwork drills they do in their basketball drills, instead focusing on upper body strength and endurance through right hooks, left

crosses and the like. "It definitely will get your heart rate going, but nothing really compares to the running we do," Corrigan said. "But it’s a good workout. We work up

a good sweat." If Rishonda Napier does not pack the hardest punch on the team, she certainly packs the loudest. The 5-foot 5-inch senior point guard attacked video

coordinator Adesuwa Ebomwonyi's pads with a flurry of punches and finishes, gloves stretched skyward, with shouts of "I'm the champ!" When Corrigan suggested she should

"I really like it because I get to hit Kylie [Giebelhausen,]" said sophomore center Ashley Hummel, half-matterof-factly, half jokingly. "She’s really good, but I’m better. I have a quicker jab, quicker footsteps and I’m more athletic." The Dawgs pair up roughly by size, the 6-foot-1 Hummel with the 6-foot1 junior guard/forward Giebelhausen, 6-foot junior center Celina VanHyfte with 6-foot-1 senior forward Kim Nebo and 5-foot-9 sophomore guard Olivia Bowling with the 5-foot-11 Corrigan. Assistant coach Kat Martin said the SIU coaching staff does not worry about players being injured while boxing because of the quality of instruction Crouse and his assistants provide. In addition to boxing, the team participates in a Zumba workout on Tuesdays. All returning players from the 2015-16 season participate in both activities, with the exception of redshirt freshman forward Tiajaney Hawkins, who is still recovering from a shoulder injury.

Saluki lineman receives NFL mini camp invite

JACOB GAERTNER | @JGAERTNERDE

The Chicago Bears have invited SIU football's Garrett Clark to their 2016 mini camp. Clark, a 6-foot-3, 285-pound offensive lineman, started nine

games at center for SIU in 2015. He orchestrated an offensive line that led the Missouri Valley Football Conference with only 12 sacks allowed despite 427 passing attempts, second most in the MVFC. The o-line contributed to an

offensive unit that led the MVFC in total, scoring, and passing offense in 2015. Clark was named the most valuable offensive lineman by his teammates at SIU. In the 2015 season, the Bears

ranked 21st and 23rd of 32 teams in total offense and passing offense, respectively. Chicago ranked 18th in sacks allowed while throwing the ball less frequently than 24 other teams. Just 14 other teams had a

higher sack rate than the Bears. The Bears drafted one lineman during last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft. Jacob Gaertner can be reached at jgaertner@dailyegyptian.com or at 618-536-3303.

SIU softball take extra-innings contest at Evansville

EVAN JONES | @EvanJones_DE

SIU softball got its revenge on Evansville pitcher Morgan Florey on Wednesday. It took nine innings, but the Salukis avoided a season sweep from the Purple Aces with a 3-2 victory in Evansville. SIU's starter Brianna Jones (22-10, 1.79 ERA) and Evansville starter Morgan Florey (15-10, 1.99 ERA) entered the contest as the only Missouri Valley Conference pitchers with sub-2.00 ERAs and, outside of one tough inning each, both performed as such. Jones and Florey had batters guessing all day, combining for 18 strikeouts. Florey got the loss, allowing eight hits and the three runs after shutting out the Dawgs (31-17, 14-9 Missouri Valley Conference) on April 19. Jones' 22nd win and drop in ERA to 1.79 extended her MVC leads in those categories. The game was tied for all but 10 at-bats of the contest. Evansville (22-24, 10-13 MVC) took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the third after RBI singles from Florey and junior outfielder Chandra Parr. The next half-inning, junior first baseman Shaye Harre erased the lead with a two-run home run. Harre has pushed her career-high home run total to 12 and has 38 RBIs on the season, creeping closer to her career high of 43. Later, junior center fielder Merri Anne Patterson led off the seventh with a double, but was unable to score. SIU also had the bases loaded with no one out in the top of the eighth, but freshman outfielder Hanna Porter and sophomore outfielder Jessica Heese strikeouts coupled with a Patterson flyout ended the inning with no harm done. After two innings of coming close, the Salukis broke through in the ninth with a RBI single from freshman left fielder Eyrika Brandenburg, her 14th RBI on the season. Jones got three quick outs in the ninth to close out the game. She finished allowing six hits across nine innings with 10 strikeouts. SIU is now tied for third place in the conference with Northern Iowa, but holds the head-to-head tiebreaker. The Salukis will close out the regular season with a three-game set against Wichita State on Saturday and Sunday in Wichita, Kan. Morgan Timms | @Morgan_Timms

Hill adds another assistant football coach to Salukis JACOB GAERTNER | @JGAERTNERDE

SIU football head coach Nick Hill has added another assistant to fill out his coaching staff for the 2016 season.

SIU athletics

Carl Franks, who has 19 years of assistant coaching experience, has been hired as the cornerbacks coach. "He's played and coached under [defensive coordinator Kraig] Paulson before," Hill said. "He knows the defense well." Franks was an all-conference safety at the University of Montana from 1992 to 1993 under Paulson, who was the defensive backs coach at the time. Franks followed Paulson to Utah State University to become a coach in 2000, where he served as defensive backs coach and special teams coordinator until 2002. Hill said Franks stood out from the other candidates because he's played the position at a high level and has a lot of coaching experience. After his stint at Utah State with

Paulson, Franks moved to Northern Arizona University, where he served as defensive backs coach for five seasons. In 2009, he was hired to Western Illinois University as defensive backs coach and contributed to a firstand second-ranked pass defense in 2010 and 2012, respectively. Franks was hired in 2013 to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, of the Canadian Football League, and served as defensive backs coach there for one season. During his time at Northern Arizona and Utah State, Franks coached nine players to 15 All-Big Sky selections and two Big Sky Defensive Player of the Year awards.

Eighth-inning mistakes bite Dawgs at Illinois

THOMAS DONLEY | @TDONLEYDE

A sloppy eighth inning broke a 2-2 tie and gave Illinois a 6-3 win against Southern Illinois on Wednesday. The Illini (23-19, 7-8 Big Ten) picked up four runs on one play when sophomore left fielder Dan Rowbottom doubled to left with the bases loaded and came around to score on an error. The Salukis (25-19-1, 6-6 Missouri Valley Conference) scored a run on a double by sophomore second baseman Connor Kopach with nobody out in the ninth inning, but senior lefty J.D. Nielsen slammed the door on the Dawgs for his fifth save of the season. Freshman right-hander Brendan Meissner (1-0, 3,86 ERA) earned

his first career win with an inning of one-run relief. Junior right-hander Jacob Williams (1-3, 3.54 ERA) took the loss for SIU. He allowed all three batters he faced to reach before giving way to freshman lefty Austin Covers, who allowed the double to Rowbottom. Rowbottom tied for a game high with two hits and led all players with four RBIs. It was the Dawgs first loss to the Illini in three games this season. The Salukis travel to Missouri State for a three-game series starting at 6:30 p.m. Friday at Hammons Field in Springfield, Mo. Junior pitcher Chad Whitmer will take the mound.
