No smoking policy: A breath of fresh air DAVID JORDAN | @DavidJordan_DE

Students on campus this fall will be able to breathe easier now that the university has a campus-wide no smoking policy. The new policy went into effect on July 1 in accordance to the Illinois Smoke-Free Campus Act, signed by former Gov. Pat Quinn last year. This legislation requires all state public universities to enforce no smoking policies on their campuses. University Spokeswoman Rae Goldsmith said SIU wants students and faculty members to be mindful of the effects of smoking on themselves and the environment. “SIU is focused on the health and wellbeing of its students and staff,” Goldsmith said. Those who use e-cigarettes and vape pens will have no such luck either, as those are also banned under the new policies. Kyle Dye, a sophomore from Hume studying crop and soil sciences, said he has not smoked or chewed tobacco in roughly a year, and the ban of vapor smoke promotes tobacco use since people will find other ways to get nicotine, unless they choose to break the rules. “I thought about it,” he said. Although the ban covers all of campus — including parking lots — students and faculty members can smoke in their personal vehicles while on university grounds. There will be no designated smoking areas on campus. Dye understands the ban, because secondhand smoke and the litter from cigarette butts is a problem, but thinks there should be an area for smokers. “It doesn’t have to be huge,” Dye said. “It can be a park bench. From my personal experience, I had an officer run up to me and he said, ‘I’m not your dad. I’m not going to tell you what to do. Plus I have better things

to worry about than you guys vaping or smoking.’” However, some are in favor of the rule. Alicia Stark, an undecided freshman from Springfield, said she believes the policies will be good for campus. “The university’s new policy will help to clean up the campus’ ground and air.” Even though smoking is now against campus rules, smokers may not see effects of the policy because of a lack of enforcement. There are currently no plans to actively

enforce the ban by university officials. Goldsmith said there could be fines passed down to smokers in the future if they are seen as repeat offenders of the new policy. Goldsmith believes the smoking ban will be a successful one, as there have been no major complaints. Students offended by the smell of smoke should politely ask the person using prohibited products to stop or report the incident to the Department of Public Safety. Students and faculty members trying to

quit smoking and would like help from the university can enroll in smoking cessation programs offered by Student Health Services. Those wishing for more discreet options on quitting can call 1-800-QUIT-NOW, which offers smoking cessation information and a 20 minute counseling session. More information about the new smoking policy can be found at http://www.smokefree. siu.edu/ Aaron Graff contributed to this story.

Fatal shootings of Virginia journalists put horror on TV MATT PEARCE, LEE ROMNEY AND NATALIE SCHACHAR Los Angeles Times

The man gripped a gun as he stood behind members of the news crew, watching them do a live broadcast. The journalists didn’t seem to notice that he had pointed the weapon right at them. On Wednesday morning, as southwestern Virginia television viewers watched on live TV, a WDBJ-TV reporter and her cameraman were shot to death in the middle of their broadcast near Smith Mountain Lake. Police later identified the gunman as Vester Lee Flanagan II, one of the journalists’ former TV station co-workers. The person being interviewed, local Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Vicki Gardner, was wounded but was expected to survive. By the time Flanagan, 41, had shot and killed himself after a police chase several hours later, his face and his actions had been widely broadcast on televisions across the nation and on social media. Flanagan, who was black, cited racism and bullying as a motive, though Franklin County Sheriff Bill Overton said it was “obvious” that Flanagan “was disturbed in some way.”

The shooting was a grotesque moment of television that swiftly appeared on CNN and YouTube. About eight shots were heard as reporter Alison Parker, 24, screamed and cameraman Adam Ward, 27, fell to the ground, and Ward’s camera spun to show a grim-faced man striding forward with a pistol in his hand. When the broadcast feed quickly switched back to a camera at the TV station, it caught a WDBJ-TV anchor gaping in shock, her mouth open, unsure of what she’d just seen. Hours after the 6:45 a.m. shooting, Flanagan — a native of Oakland, Calif., who used to work as a TV reporter at WDBJ-TV under the name Bryce Williams — apparently posted a video on Facebook and Twitter showing the shooting from the gunman’s perspective. The accounts were swiftly taken down, but not before the Twitter account posted messages complaining that Parker and Ward had not treated Flanagan well at the workplace. Station officials said Flanagan had been fired and escorted out of the TV station after a year of clashing with station employees. ABC News reported that someone claiming to be Flanagan had faxed a 23-

page document to the network, which turned it over to authorities, and that Flanagan had called the network almost two hours after the shooting to say that authorities were “after me” and “all over the place.” In the manifesto — titled “A Suicide Note for Friends & Family” — the writer expressed admiration for the Virginia Tech and Columbine High

School mass shooters. He said he had been the target of racial discrimination, sexual harassment and bullying at work. He said his attackers were white females and black men, and disclosed that he was gay. He was motivated, he said, by the Charleston, S.C., church shooting of nine African-Americans by a young white man in an apparent hate crime.

“Why did I do it? I put down a deposit for a gun on 6/19/15. The Church shooting in Charleston happened on 6/17/15,” he wrote. “What sent me over the top was the church shooting. And my hollow point bullets have the victims’ initials on them.” Flanagan had bounced in and out of the TV news business for years, compiling a record of tense clashes with his co-workers and allegations of racism. His rage finally took over, according to his social media profiles and former coworkers. “Vester was an unhappy man,” WDBJ-TV station manager Jeffrey A. Marks said on the air Wednesday. “We employed him as a reporter and he had some talent in that respect.” However, Marks said, Flanagan quickly “gathered a reputation as somebody who was difficult to work with. ... He was sort of looking out for people to say things that he could take offense to. And eventually, after many incidents of his anger coming to the fore, we dismissed him, and he did not take that well and we had to call police to escort him from the building.” For more on this story, please visit www.dailyegyptian.com

Obama library architect to be selected by worldwide search Blair Kamin and dahleen Glanton | ChiCaGo triBune The foundation tasked with building the Barack Obama Presidential Center will cast a global net in its search for an architect, asking designers from the United States and overseas to compete for the prized Chicago commission, officials said Wednesday. The officials on Wednesday issued a request for qualifications to architects who may vie for the project. It asked them to submit credentials, references and examples of work by Sept. 16. The number of firms receiving the request was not immediately known. If a foreign architect wins the job of shaping the 44th president’s library and museum, it would mark the first time a non-American has designed an American presidential library, historians said. While such a move could draw criticism from those who think such a prestigious project should go to Americans, it also would open the door to wider range of design ideas. “It’s a great publicity move,” said Benjamin Hufbauer, a presidential library scholar and associate professor at the University of Louisville. “What normally happens

is the president hand selects the architect. There has never been this kind of broad invitation for an architect, and it gets people’s imagination going about what might be possible.” The foundation said President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama would select finalists later this year, and that it would issue a request for proposals to those firms. A winner is expected to be announced early next year. On the foundation’s web site, officials released new details about the scope of the presidential center, saying it would include “community gardens and quiet spots for reflection,” “convenings of activists, thinkers, and leaders,” “healthy dining for visitors” and “labs” for “talents of all types to innovate and share their work.” The core features of the center will be a presidential archives, a museum and office space for the foundation. Details about the architect selection process come as the foundation moves forward with plans to build the presidential center on Chicago’s South Side, either in Jackson Park or Washington Park.

‘Rare Replay’ ranked from worst to best: part three grant Meyer | @GrantMeyerDe

The wait is over. The best games on “Rare Replay” are ranked below. This list contains some of the greatest games of the past 30 years. 10. “R.C. Pro-Am” (1987) “R.C. Pro-Am” is one of the best racing games of the ‘80s. This game innovated the genre by introducing vehicle upgrades and hazards to avoid on the race track. 9. “Blast Corps” (1997) Despite having a ridiculous premise of destroying buildings to clear a path for a runaway nuclear weapon carrier, “Blast Corps” is stunningly fun. Using an assortment of different vehicles, players destroy buildings to earn points and unlock new levels. 8. “Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise” (2008) An example of Rare Ltd flexing its creative muscles is the Viva Piñata games. This game is the second entry in the series and continued the goal of raising pinata-themed animals in a garden in an effort to find rarer animals. To expand upon the original, “Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise” adds two new environments, new mini-games and new species to breed and collect. 7. “Banjo-Tooie” (2000) The great sequel to “BanjoKazooie,” puts players back into

the shoes of Banjo and Kazooie on a quest to save the Isle O’ Hags from their nemesis Gruntilda and her sisters. The duo jump and climb their way through various environments and collect puzzle pieces called Jiggies. This sequel was a worthy addition to this franchise. 6. “Battletoads” (1991) Regarded as one of the hardest games of all time, “Battletoads” is a side scrolling, beat’em up game. Ironically, this difficulty made it a legend in the gaming industry. The player would fight enemies as one of the three Battletoads on a mission to save their friends from the Dark Queen. 5. “Jet Force Gemini” (1999) “Jet Force Gemini” is the most underrated game in “Rare Replay.” This fantastic third-person shooter featuring Juno, Vela and Lupus on their journey across planets to defeat the evil, insect-like Mizar and save Earth. 4. “Conker’s Bad Fur Day” (2001) Staring a foul-mouthed and hungover squirrel named Conker, the game was a different take on the platformer genre. This genre generally was applicable to all ages, but it notched up the maturity level and was full of adult language and sexual references. Despite the change, it surprised everyone with how good of

a game it was. 3. “Viva Piñata” (2006) An underrated game, the original “Viva Piñata” is one of the most unique games Rare Ltd ever made. Like what was mentioned for “Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise,” this is a simulation game where you breed pinata animals in an effort to collect as many as you can. When this game released no one had seen anything like it and many today say it was ahead of its time. 2. “Perfect Dark” (2000) “Perfect Dark” is the legendary game introducing secret agent Joanna Dark and was Rare Ltd’s second crack at the first-person shooter genre after the innovative “GoldenEye 007.” This game came with new content and features such as every weapon having two different firing options, a fresh world and storyline to explore, voice acting and a robust AI system for enemies in multiplayer. 1. “Banjo-Kazooie” (1998) The mascot platformer that Rare Ltd is known for, and the best game in the genre of its time. The player takes control of Banjo and Kazooie on a quest to save Banjo’s sister from the evil witch Gruntilda. Not only was the jumping, exploring and puzzle solving great, but it also plays well to this day.

“American Ultra” hits most of the targets Jacob Pierce | @JacobPierce1_de

“American Ultra,” starring Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart, Connie Britton and Topher Grace, is a high-octane thrill ride, only stopped by its misguided director. Nima Nourizadeh’s only other film directed is the dreadful “Project X.” He blocks any chance this movie has to become a beautifully presented B-action movie. The director failed to find a balance between the gory action and stonerbrand comedy. At times the film plays as accidental satire, causing various action scenes to fall flat because an out of place piece of score or a tame act of violence. The talents of Stewart, Eisenberg and screenwriter Max Landis are what makes this movie flow. The coupling of Stewart and Eisenberg is not only the linchpin to the film’s success, but also might be one of the most realistic romantic duos in cinema history. As compelling action segments go, the ending grocery store scene is the highlight of the film. It reaches the highest levels of thrilling brutality and serves as a major emotional grab. The ending interaction between Eisenberg’s Howell and Walton Goggins’ Laugher speaks volumes about the horrific experiments placed on both characters.

TJ Price Senior safety Anthony Thompson poses on the sidelines after Saturday’s scrimmage at Saluki Stadium. He is one of two players in the Missouri Valley Football Conference from Canada.

Canadian-born safety to help lead Saluki secondary sean Carley | @sCarleyde

Canada is a recruiting bed for hockey, not American football. Saluki senior safety Anthony Thompson is one of two Canadian-born players in the Missouri Valley Football Conference. After playing high school and collegiate football in Canada, Thompson decided it was time for a change. Thompson, a Montreal native, left Vanier College in 2011 after four years to play at UCLA.

“UCLA finally just gave me a random call,” he said. “I was shocked when they called me.” Thompson said the main difference American football had from what he was used to was the speed of the athletes. After redshirting for his freshman year, Thompson left when coach Rick Neuheisel departed. SIU coach Dale Lennon said he knew coaches in Canada, leading him to Thompson.

“My staff back then had some connections up in Canada,” Lennon said. “There was some common ground we had...so it seemed like a very comfortable fit getting him here.” During a one-on-one meeting with defensive coordinator David Elson after last season, Thompson said he needed a complete change. Elson said Thompson spent the 2015 spring semester improving his focus, attitude and body.

The change propelled Thompson into a leadership role among the secondary as players ask him and senior safety D.J. Cameron for advice. Thompson said he hopes his changes in the offseason allow him to play a key role in the defense this year. “There’s a bunch of packages with [Cameron] and I both out there on the field,” he said. “The coaches want us all out there at the same time and that’ll be a better chance to defend the offense.”

Three things to know about Saluki volleyball before season opener sean Carley | @sCarleyde

“Make history” is the SIU volleyball team’s motto this year as the team hopes to capture the Missouri Valley Conference title. With 14 players returning from last year’s roster, there are only two new faces on the 2015 team. Pippen and Estrada Middle hitter Taylor Pippen is starting her senior season and holds SIU’s all-time record for hitting efficiency. She was picked to the Preseason All-MVC team and hopes to end the year on the first team All-MVC. “I’m looking to keep hitting my spots,” Pippen said. “I want to help lead my team to a championship.” Sophomore outside hitter Andrea Estrada led the team in kills last season. Estrada has the ability

to play in all six rotations. It will be rare to see her on the sidelines this season. Estrada and Pippen played in all 113 sets last season. Libero Position Last year’s starting libero Alex Rivera graduated, meaning the position is open and three players are battling for the starting spot. Coach Justin Ingram said there is an emphasis on keeping rallies alive on the defensive side of the ball. At 5-foot-4, sophomore Ashley Edelen is the shortest member of the team, which could help her get key digs. Digs will be a spot the Salukis need to improve, said Ingram. Evansville was the only team that had less digs in the MVC last season. This season is the first with the Salukis for freshman Tara Routliffe

and junior Mariana Pilon, a transfer from Brazil. “I’m not trying to hit anymore, but if the team needs it I will be more than happy to help them out,” Pilon said. While Routliffe and Edelen are both defensive specialists, Pilon is the only libero with a background as a hitter. Her ability to step up to the front line sets her apart from her competition. Ingram said all three are ready to start for the Salukis this season. Setters return for junior year The setter position is one that will not see much change. Juniors Hannah Kaminsky and Meg Viggars will split time at setter. Ranking third on the team in kills last year, Viggars will attempt to continue her success at the net with drop sets — catching her
