Price-Smith leaving SIU Track and Field

Swimming up to the cave
Brent Meske| @brentmeskeDE Southern Illinois University track and field brought home three NCAA National Championships last season but will now be in search of a new head coach. Connie Price-Smith, who has coached 14 seasons at SIU and is one of six Salukis in the Missouri Valley Conference Hall of Fame, accepted a job as director of the track and field program as well as track and field coach at University of Mississippi on Tuesday. “It is a great opportunity to be in the [Southeastern Conference],” she said. “I want to be known as a head coach of a program that is good at everything, not just throws.” University of Mississippi has never had an NCAA Champion in a throwing event. On July 15, Price-Smith was announced as the head coach for the Team USA women for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, making her the only SIU coach of all time in any sport to be an Olympic head coach. John Smith, SIU’s throws coach and Price-Smith’s husband, will also leave SIU for a new position at Ole Miss. Price-Smith said they are a package deal and leaving SIU was not an easy decision. “It was one of the saddest days of my life when I made the decision, and I’m sure John felt the same way,” PriceSmith said. “We love SIU… and leaving and going to Ole Miss is not going to change that. It’s family, it’s home. We’ll be in different colors… but SIU will always be a part of us.” Athletic Director Tommy Bell said the state’s current budget situation will not hinder replacing the coaches. “We know because of the success that [Price-Smith] had here that we’ll have a lot of people interested in our program,” he said. J.C. Lambert, current volunteer assistant coach and former Saluki thrower, said he would apply for Smith’s job as SIU’s throws coach. “Having people like them on your side is a golden ticket because they’re well known and well respected,” he said. “I’ll take the things I’ve learned from them and apply it to my coaching career.” Lambert said he thought Price-Smith and Smith would be there at least a couple more years, if not their entire careers. News of Price-Smith’s departure comes after a 2014-15 season with three NCAA National Champions to boost her coaching total to eight. Freshman Raven Saunders won the shot put both indoors and outdoors while junior DeAnna Price won the hammer throw outdoors. Please see PRICE-SMITH | 8
J ay H olland | @JayHollandDE Trey Saulsgiver, 11 of Laporte Ind., swims in the Ohio River Saturday afternoon after maneuvering the flooded path to Cave-In-Rock. Saulsgiver said, “The cave was awesome. The walk over was dangerous but, well worth the effort.” Please see page 4 for story.
Summer enrollment experiences large decrease CHase Myers | @chasemyers_DE Summer enrollment at SIU has declined by nearly 8 percent from 2014 to 2015, equaling a total decrease of more than 550 students, according to University Communications. While the School of Law had the only total increase, by two students, undergraduate enrollment dropped by more than 200 students and graduate enrollment dropped more than 300 students since last year. These statistics combine online and in-class courses and include continuing students, new students, readmission students and transfer students. Although the different reasons for the decrease are hard to place, the main reason is a shift to a new, experimental funding model established in 2014, Susan Ford, interim provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs, said. The new model allows courses to be offered, as long as they generate enough tuition to cover instructional costs, as well as a 30 percent tax for central administration costs, she said. Instructional costs include faculty costs, graduate assistant costs, instructional travel or travel for offcampus classes, all of which would return to the college. The loophole in tuition costs is that not all students pay tuition. While some students are on scholarship and continuing their education, others decide to discontinue their education and payment all together, she said. “That is tuition that we didn’t get, but a faculty member that had to be paid,” she said. She said the previous summer budget would bolster the enrollment by allowing returning classes, but because of a smaller summer budget, the university has to adapt and drop classes that do not meet the new model’s standards. She said while the previous business model was consistent, large improvements throughout the

school had to be taken into consideration. “You knew year to year you’re going to the same thing the year before,” she said. “But it did mean there was no room for growth, innovation, or chasing students needs through changes in the summer schedule.” While this new business model utilizes a temporary loss to provide long-term upward potential, the town surrounding the university may suffer the same temporary decline. “The university and university enrollment is the economic engine that drives not only Carbondale, but most of our region,” Les O’Dell, executive director of the Carbondale Chamber of Commerce said.
Promoting enrollment is something the Chamber of Commerce and small businesses have been very involved with, creating street-side advertisements to printing paw prints on the streets, which the chamber prints, O’Dell said. “We want a thriving and vibrant university,” he said. Other than bars and food located on the Route 51 strip, retail remains the next prosperous business in Carbondale, which is directly affected by college students, he said. “They buy everything from dishes, to clothes to charcoal. Its everything,” he said. “There is not a segment of our business community that is not effected by the university.”

Innovation expert talks economic growth Jacob Wiegand | @JacobWiegand_DE
More than four years ago, Google Fiber announced it would be coming to Kansas City, Kan. offering very high speed, gigabit Internet to the community. The issue of faster Internet access is one of great concern to those in Carbondale and the surrounding region, and there could be a solution in the near future. Mike Brown, founder of The Brainzooming Group, was a key player in finding new and creative uses for the Google Fiber system in Kansas City as well as ways to help the community utilize their new system as a means of economic growth. Brown spoke at a luncheon speech at the Carbondale Civic Center Tuesday. He said bringing a program like Google Fiber into an area is only the first step in utilizing its full potential, while a community vision involving the wider public is also necessary for success. “Economically, so often it has been about what’s right here and we’ve got to use that or what can we attract,” he said. “I think the connectivity and the faster Internet
allows us to start to reach out and pull in some of those other pieces that may not be physically here, but can help drive the economy in new ways.” Brown said this presents an opportunity to branch out and create new economic possibilities with the rest of the globe. “There is an equivalent to Google Fiber already available within the city of Carbondale.” said Cory Draper, a technical supervisor with Frontier Communications. Draper said this service is on a limited availability, and the company is building out the service as they go along, but there is access up to a gigabit on both the residential and business sides of Carbondale. Draper said the process is ongoing and was not able to offer a projected time as to its completion. “I think what we can do as telecommunications companies to be a part of the local community is to embrace this new incentive and just support it all the way,” Carol Snuffer, a local account executive for Mediacom, said. “I really think this would be very beneficial to Carbondale and other cities as it

continues to grow.” Brown said having access to this high speed Internet is an incentive for people to stay in the area and to attract people from other places as well. He said Kansas City has seen people move in from the coast, and this access attracts people who are interested in starting up new businesses. He said there is a window where the southern Illinois region could be greatly attractive to others by adding this high speed Internet now. But, if it takes too long to update and other cities get this service earlier, those benefits will be less significant when finally updated because the access would be more commonplace in other areas. David Yepsen, director of the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute, helps coordinate the Building a Creative Economy in Southern Illinois series, which brought Brown to speak on Tuesday. Yepsen said the series is made up of speakers and workshops that focus on bringing people together to help find ways to make the community and region more attractive to people who work in the creative economy such as artists and writers.

Creole Stomp talks Cajun music, SIU and park shows Chase Myers | @chasemyers_DE Cajun powerhouse Creole Stomp, with their Louisiana influenced rock and southern Illinois roots, will be performing at 7 p.m. on Thursday at Turley Park for this week’s installment of the Sunset Concert Series. The group consists of Dennis Stroughmatt on vocals and fiddle, Robert Russell on vocals and lead guitar, Greg Bigler on vocals and bass, Jimmy Willis on vocals and drums and occasionally CW Riley on scrub board. Composed of alumni, some with master’s degrees, Creole Stomp is informally known as “The Grateful Dead of Creole Music,” and utilizes their knowledge of music culture into their sound. The Daily Egyptian had the opportunity to speak with founding member Dennis Stroughmatt about what makes the band tick. How did you guys get started? We actually started in Carbondale back in 2002. I had worked with other groups, but the band was all SIU graduates actually. Basically, we were showing you what you could do with a master’s degree or a Ph.D. from SIU: you can go form a band. Most people don’t know that we were based out of Carbondale, but we were. I had been doing a lot of French music actually. I had worked and lived in Louisiana. I was kind of back and forth between Carbondale and
P rovided P hoto
Lafayette, La., I lived in Louisiana and am French speaking … but essentially, there was a lot of demand because I had been working in different groups with Cajun music and really wanted to put a group together that could really do it well. I was fortunate that a good friend of mine who had left Carbondale, SIU grad John Watson, put the band together with Robert Russell. Is your band’s dynamic smooth because most of you have master’s degrees? Everybody in the group is very knowledgeable and we all approach what we do from a professional perspective. We’ve all worked with other groups. Music is not just about getting up there and partying all night
long. For us, the music we do is representative of a certain culture in Louisiana. Knowing about that culture, understanding it and being able to exhibit that in our music for the crowd is a big deal for us. Being able to play traditionally is a big deal. The fact that we are all fairly educated helps out, but there are different people in the band now too. Actually, Robert and I are the only original members left, so there have been a lot of different people that have gone through the band through the years. It’s weird, somehow, there always ends up being an SIU connection with new people who come through the band. Does that SIU connection allow the band to mesh well?
That experience really helps make the band cohesive. No matter who comes into the band, having had some kind of relationship with SIU means that any of us have sort of walked the same ground. What makes Louisiana music so unique? If you were to go see a rock band … [almost] everything you are going to hear is going to be in English. Most of what we do is in French. There are still over half a million people who speak French in Louisiana in the Cajun country and the music prevalent from that area is done in French. Not only that, something that’s kind of cultural about the music in Louisiana is the fact that it has so many different infusions of
African Creole music. You have a lot of Caribbean style music and also a lot of blues coming into the music. The instrumentation doesn’t necessarily suggest the same thing as a blues band or a Caribbean band, I mean, we use an accordion, but at the same time we use a lead guitar, bass and drums. You performed at a Sunset Concert in 2011. Do you feel like it is a good environment for live music? Absolutely. We really like that. The Carbondale Sunset concerts are very similar, in some ways, to a lot of other park shows … we like to do concerts like that, because people are relaxed. They’re there to hear a band play, but they are not so much just sitting and watching the band every minute. They are also there to hang out, just have a good time and relax and we’re a part of that experience. We are somewhat the focal point, but not necessarily. We do all kinds of different park concerts like that. We just got back from a 10-day run in Colorado on tour and we played several park concerts out there. Just this past weekend we were out in Ohio playing a festival, doing an outdoor, evening concert kind of thing. We get to play for different groups of people and coming back and playing Carbondale, especially like the Turley Park concert, is really fun. We get to see some old friends, and you know, just have a good time.
WoW patch 6.2 improves but fails to fix grant Meyer | @GrantMeyerDe The genre of massive multiplayer online role playing games has seen drastic changes during the past decade. Originally, most of them had a subscription fee where customers would pay a monthly fee for regular content updates. In the past five or so years, the genre has seen a massive shift towards a free-to-play model. Game companies are supported through a variety of other income methods other than subscriptions. Only one game has survived this trend: “World of Warcaft.” Created by Blizzard Entertainment, “World of Warcraft,” more commonly known as WoW, is the largest massive multiplayer online role playing game on the planet. The genre has a player create a character with a specific class, each class having its own set of abilities. The goal of the game is to level up a character and his or
her equipment through exploring, questing and competing with or against other players. The game was originally released in November 2004, and since has had five expansion packs, each releasing every couple years. The most recent expansion, “World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor,” was released on Nov. 13 with good reviews. It saw a massive increase in WoW subscribers, or consumers who pay the monthly fee to play the game. This was short lived and followed by a drop of nearly 3 million users, the largest decrease in WoW subscribers in the game’s history. After spending a little time with the game, players soon realized many flaws in this addition to the Warcraft series. Currency systems were poorly implemented, the need to venture to a large social space was removed and content for the highest level users was repetitive and boring. “Fury of Hellfire: Patch 6.2” was released on June 23 and attempted to mend some of those issues. It succeeds in some ways but fails in others.
The best addition to this patch is the new area to explore, Tanaan Jungle. This area provides new activities such as daily questing, earning reputation with factions and hunting rare enemies. New mounts, equipment and cosmetic items can all be earned by doing these activities. Exploring Tanaan Jungle and its events will be the bulk of what players will be doing in this patch. Tanaan Jungle also continues the storyline started at the beginning of the expansion. Not much story content is given, but often times these patches have little to no story at all. “Fury of Hellfire: Patch 6.2” has a small series of quests expanding the narrative and setting up the context for other portions of the game. The biggest disappointment is the addition of shipyards and naval missions. At the start of this expansion, the player is given their own garrison to control. This is a big fort which can be customized with different buildings, providing benefits to the player. Included with the garrison is a random assortment of followers,
which can be sent on missions and reward the player. Each follower has a few abilities making them better at certain missions and increasing their chances of a successful mission. If the followers fail a mission, they return to the player’s command but without the rewards. The shipyard is the same concept but with ships. Ten ships can be owned and they act the same way as followers. There are five ships in all: transport, destroyer, battleship, submarine and carrier. The big issue the ships have, unlike companions, is if they fail their mission they have a chance to be destroyed, making them lost permanently. Having some consequence in game design usually is not a bad thing. In this instance, however, it is tedious and makes it unenjoyable. Furthermore, the shipyard is required if the player wants to complete other aspects of the game, forcing the player to do something not fun. If a player was to be very serious about maximizing their chances of success with naval missions, they would be spending a very large portion of their in game
resources depleting them very quickly and hurting other aspects of the game. This patch also adds a new raid to the game. Raids, which are activities that groups of players work on together to take down extremely challenging foes called bosses, are the most rewarding and often most difficult challenges in the game. It requires a minimum of 10 to a maximum of 30 players to complete the content. The raid, Hellfire Citadel, meets the standard of what is expected of a typical WoW raid. It contains 13 new bosses to defeat for the best items in the game. It adds some fun new gameplay mechanics but nothing too innovative. Overall it is a solid raid. Finally, the patch tweaks and balances multiple different aspects of the pre-existing game such as player classes, professions and events. Overall, “Fury of Hellfire: Patch 6.2” has some fun new additions but does not succeed to fix the problems of this expansion. Tanaan Jungle and Hellfire Citadel help keep fans entertained, but the shipyard feature does nothing but frustrate and hurt the enjoyment of the game.

Trekking across southeastern Illinois Off the beaten path Photos by Written by Sarah Jay Holland Niebrugge Saturday was a day of exciting and exhausting adventure for Jay Holland and me from midday to sunset. We started with an hour and a half drive to Cave-In-Rock, a small town about 74 miles southwest of Carbondale. The town, with a population of about 300, was quaint and adorable. On every street corner there was a vintage bicycle painted in different pastel colors with a flower basket on the front. The main stop in this little town was the cave at Cave-In-Rock State Park on the north side of the Ohio River. The cave was discovered in 1729 by the European explorer M. De Lery of France, according to the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. He named it caverne danse Le Roc, which translates to Cave-In-Rock. Both of us were looking forward to easily walking straight into the expansive cave. The Ohio River had other plans for us. After walking down the stairs leading to the pathway, we found the river to be so high that the trail was entirely flooded over. A few younger boys were swimming close to the edge of the water and told us the path was flooded but the cave was still accessible. Holland and I had our mission, and we were not about to let a bit of river water stop us, though we probably should have. We waded through the water and followed more steps taking us lower until the water was about chest deep and followed the concrete walkway to the cavern entrance. The entrance to the cave was enormous and towered above us. The walls were etched and spray-painted with names from previous visitors. Even the highest points on the cave had names from times when the water was flooded even higher.
The three boys, Ashton Lamprecht, 15-years-old, of Marion, Ky., Trent Saulsgiver, 10-years-old, of Laport, Ind., and Trey Saulsigiver, 11-years-old, of Laport, Ind., were the only ones we met that had also ventured out to see the cave. “The cave was like a mansion but was oozing from the ceiling,” said Trey. Trent, Trey’s brother, said the cave was fantastic and loved the adventure. The three boys were accompanied by Danni Cox, mother of Trent and Trey and aunt to Ashton, and Rhonda McConnel, Cox’s sister also from Laporte, Ind. Although the sisters decided to avoid the water, both agreed it was worth the trip. “We took the ferry over from Marion, Kentucky to enjoy the day with our nephew,” Cox said. After drying off and loading back into the car, we headed to our next destination, Pounds Hollow Recreation Area which spans 230 acres. The area offers camping, picnicking, fishing, boating and hiking. We first thought we would take a dip in the public swimming area, which is free and open from dawn to dusk daily from May to September. We quickly changed our mind after seeing the crowded beach and traveled on to the next hike. We arrived at the trailhead for Rim Rock National Recreation Trail and were surprised by how quiet it was. The Rim Rock trail was created in 1962, but was replaced in the 1980s by the Young Adult Conservation Corps. The crew took out the gravel pathway and laid down a flagstone walkway, according to United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The entire path was gorgeous and very calming. Trees, brush and rocks surrounded us, and if you could ignore the intense heat and humidity, there would be plenty more to explore. During the hike we came across
The National Weather Service Ohio River Forecast Center reports the water level of the river reached 36.8 feet as of July 18. Flood stage is considered at 33 feet for the area and a flood warning has been issued.
our second cave of the day known as Ox-Lot Cave signified by a trail marker. The sign, created by the Forest Service, noted that the cave received its name when loggers started using the wooded area and created a corral around the cave to keep in oxen. The overhang created a shelter and a watering hole for the animals. We explored more of the rocky area until we were worn out and then headed on to our final spot for the sunset, Garden of the Gods.
The Pounds Hollow Recreation area was completed in the early 1940s by the Civilian Conservation Corps. One of the key attractions is the free public swimming area adjacent to the picnic shelters.
This is one of the most popular places to explore, I have heard from fellow students. Garden of the Gods, like every other place we had explored on Saturday, is located in Shawnee National Forest. Within the nearly 6 miles of hiking trails, the Observation Trail, a quarter-mile loop walk featuring sandstone rock formations, is the most popular. We spent very little time exploring because of the long day we had just had. Instead, we found a spot on a rock ledge with a view overlooking the Shawnee National Forest and ended up running into the family we had met earlier at Cave-In-Rock.
Cox said they were told Garden of the Gods was pretty close to the cave. “We thought we were lost,” Cox said. “We are used to close meaning one or two blocks not 10 to 15 miles.” McConnel and Cox however both agreed the drive was well worth the trek. The two adults sat with us watching the sunset as the boys climbed around on the rocky terrain. After a day out and about, we were exhausted and ready to get home. We found some incredible places on our journey, and are ready to head back soon to find more.
Cave-In-Rock was featured in L.A. Meyers novel, Mississippi Jack. The main character Jacky Faber encounters outlaws at the cave and defeats them in a battle on the river.

The Rim Rock National Recreation Trail, designated in 1980, was nicknamed “The Pounds” by early settlers. The old English term meant “some sort of enclosure” and is how the valley to the east of the trail got the name of Pounds Hollow, according to the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service.
Cave-In-Rock holds many local legends of river piracy and attacks on people traveling along the Ohio River, however no historical evidence proves the cave ever hid any criminals, according to the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service.
The Bizarre Bands are dark reddish-brown marks on the rocks called liesegang bands. When the sandstone was still underground, it was saturated with groundwater mixed with iron. The chemical reaction coupled with weathering created the bizarre markings found today, according to the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service.
The sandstone bluffs in the Garden of the Gods Recreation Area are about 320 million years old. The sediment layers left from rivers millions of years ago, weighed down on each other to create the rock formations and have been worn down from years of windblown sand, rain, and freezing and thawing actions, according to the Forest Service.
Cave-In-Rock is located along the limestone bluffs on the Ohio River. The cave was created by flooding due to the Wisconsin Ice Age.

PRICE-SMITH CONTINUED FROM

Saunders said PriceSmith was a mother figure away from home and Smith kept her focused. After the success she’s had this past year, Saunders said she will follow PriceSmith and Smith to Ole Miss. “Trying to go someplace else would make no sense,” Saunders said. Freshman pole vaulter Lindsey Murray said she is unsure if she will leave SIU after hearing about the departure of Price-Smith. “Coach Connie has brought so much into the program,” Murray said. “Her being there was a big part of my decision of going to SIU.” Senior runner Juan Carrera said he will stay at SIU because of his teammates. “I can’t bear the thought of leaving and knowing [teammates] may not follow,” he said. “I wouldn’t be able to do it. You think about your teammates.”
