Digging up Wells Street’s storied past Bars, storefronts part of campus history By Jeff Engel and Christopher Placek jeffrey.engel@marquette.edu christopher.placek@marquette.edu

When construction crews were pounding on the concrete of Wells Street last week to clear way for a new pedestrian median, they were digging up relics of Milwaukee’s past. Uncovered in the rubble were the old metal tracks of the city’s streetcar line, which was still running through World War II. The discovery shows how much Wells Street has changed not only in appearance, but in culture.

The block’s stretch of mom-and-pops — barbershops and salons, self-service laundries and cleaners, lunch counters and restaurants, meat and fruit markets, and of course bars — is largely gone from Marquette’s campus today. But just like the old streetcar lines, reminders of the Wells Street of Old Milwaukee subsist. Take Angelo’s Pizza, for instance. In 1954, Mike Albano’s grandparents opened the ﬁrst Angelo’s at 1600 W. Wells St. The restaurant and bar moved to its current location across the street in 1972. Having grown up in the family business, Albano has seen the changing of the campus bar scene ﬁrsthand. Students didn’t go to off-campus watering holes as often, and when they stayed See Wells, page 2

Budget would clear the slate for some criminals Nonviolent offenses by persons under 25 could be erased from records By Jack Kelly jack.kelly@marquette.edu

Nonviolent crimes committed by those younger than 25 could now be expunged under a proposal in Gov. Jim Doyle’s budget. As the law stands now, cases can only be cleared from an offender’s record if he or she is under 21 at the time of the crime. Potential cases are also limited to misdemeanor offenses, meaning the sentences carry a year or less in jail. A week ago, the Wisconsin Legislature’s Joint Committee on Finance voted 9-6 in favor of the measure. Employment discrimination is part of the measure’s goal, said Lee Sensenbrenner, a spokesman for Doyle. “The intent is to give people a chance to move past a mistake and not have something like that on their record holding them back from a constructive life,” Sensenbrenner said. “We want to give them an opportunity to move forward with a clean slate.”

Sensenbrenner said the governor believes youthful offenders should have some opportunity to get a clean start. “A lot of crimes you see committed by people that age are different than what you see from others and they should be able to move on and get that off their records,” Sensenbrenner said. Under the proposal, the age limit would be changed from 21 to 25, and the eligible crimes would include those that carry a penalty of up to six years in jail, according to the legislation. Violent crimes — like child abuse or domestic assault — are excluded and not eligible for expungement. There were 1,487 cases expunged in 2007 and 1,672 cases expunged in 2008, according to a memo issued by the Legislative Fiscal Bureau. State Representative Robin Vos (R-Racine) opposes the policy change. He said it is difﬁcult to imagine the public supporting such a drastic change. “It’s going to affect a whole lot of people the ﬁrst time somebody doesn’t know that their neighbor committed some of these crimes that we’re going to allow them to cover up,” Vos said. “Multiple offenses — multiple serious See Age, page 9

The winners of this year’s Marquette University Kohler Center for Entrepreneurship Business Plan Competition presented a coffee mug that could speed up your time at a coffee shop. The winning product, known as “Smug: The Intelligent Coffee Mug,” can swipe coffee orders like a debit card, detracting the cost from a prepaid balance. Timothy Kirberg, a senior in the College of Communication and a member of the winning group, said Smug “acts as a gift card” at coffee shops, and uses the same technology as the I-Pass, a digital prepaid toll collection system in Illinois. Kirberg said the coffee mug uses radio frequency identiﬁcation technology to measure a balance on the mug. He said the coffee mug will be available for use in coffee shops once the systems have been installed. As of now, the only partner the group has is the Wisconsin brand Stone Creek Coffee, Kirberg said, See Smug, page 3

DPS Reports April 22 At 5:55 p.m. it was reported that a 19-year-old male student was battered by an unidentified suspect on the basketball court adjacent to O’Donnell Hall. The victim stated that he was playing basketball with several friends and three unknown individuals not affiliated with the university, when one of the unknown individuals started throwing punches. The subject knocked the victim to the ground and kicked him in the face before fleeing the scene in an unknown vehicle. DPS officers transported the victim to Aurora Sinai Medical Center, where he was treated for minor injuries and later released. Milwaukee Police Department assistance was declined.

The Avalanche Bar, as pictured in 1978, was a popular hangout for Marquette students, instructors and neighborhood locals. It closed its doors in 1997 after nearly a half-century on Wells Street.

here, they weren’t “sheltered” to only certain bars, he said. “The seniors used to embrace freshmen. Partying was a lot more fun than being a big drunk-fest,” Albano said. “Now people go to their own bar. Before everyone went everywhere. It was like a pub crawl every night.” Of course there was a lot more selection than Caffrey’s and Murphy’s. Wells Street bar hoppers went to places like O’Donoghue’s Pub, J.V. Grunts, Thoma’s and the Midget Bar. By the 1990s, these establishments had closed their doors. But those places catering to college students were largely an exception to a larger neighborhood tavern culture that had disappeared by the 1960s and ’70s, according to history professor Thomas Jablonsky, who authored “Milwaukee’s Jesuit University: Marquette, 1881-1981.” At one point, there were as many as 23 bars and grocery stores on State Street, 16 on Wells Street and 14 on Wisconsin Avenue, according to statistics in the book. Male students after World War II would frequent these establishments, but more students tended to stay closer to campus as the neighborhood and times changed. Commercial businesses in storefronts along the south side of Wells Street were consumed in the federal urban renewal plan of the late 1960s and ’70s, Jablonsky said. In the 1950s, local sports fans watched Marquette football games — yes, football — and those who brought transistor radios to the game could tune in to WISN Radio and listen to former Green Bay Packer Bob Forte’s play-by-play (so said a billboard on campus as depicted in university archives photographs). Afterward, fans mingled at a Wells Street bar named in honor of the team, so called the “Golden Avalanche.” One remnant of that era on Wells Street that stayed until the late 1990s was the Avalanche Bar, originally located at 1419 W.

April 25 At noon a 20-year-old male student reported that an unknown person had removed his secured, unattended bicycle from outside his apartment in the 800 block of West Wisconsin Avenue. The victim stated that when he arrived at his apartment at 2:30 a.m., he secured his Trek bicycle with a cable-style lock. When the victim went outside later that day, he discovered the bicycle and lock missing. The estimated loss is $810.

April 26 At 12:10 a.m. DPS officers were dispatched to McCormick Hall when the Student Safety Officer stationed at the front desk noticed a 19-year-old male student walking with a plastic bag sticking out of his front pocket. The officer asked the student what was in the plastic bag, and the student replied, “nothing,” before attempting to continue on his way. A second DPS officer then approached the student and forced him to empty his pockets. The officer discovered that the bag contained a green leafy substance. At first the student claimed that he was holding the bag for an unknown friend. After more questioning, the student admitted that the bag and its contents were his and that he had purchased it from an unknown individual not affiliated with the university. The officers then discovered that the student had been cited by MPD for possession of marijuana early in the first semester. MPD was contacted and, as a result of the previous offense, the student was charged with state possession of marijuana — a felony offense. As of Monday morning, the student was still in MPD custody.

bring to Wells.” Mike Whittow, assistant to the vice president in the Ofﬁce of Administration, acknowledged that the decreased number of bars in the area might have inspired negative feelings among some people. Nevertheless, the bars that remain have good tenants, he said. Debbie Thatcher, the owner of Conway’s Smokin’ Bar & Grill, 2127 W. Wells St., said the university “got the ball rolling” with Campus Circle in helping to revitalize the neighborhood. But today, Thatcher’s bar on the outskirts of campus is one of a few remaining storefront businesses in the

area. She said she doesn’t think the university or city has helped bring businesses to her part of the community. Rana Altenburg, the current vice president for public affairs and a 1988 graduate, said Wells Street has always had character and been an active place. Although many bars have left the block, student housing and other amenities have kept it a central spot for students to hang out, she said. “I have very fond memories of Wells Street then, but it’s got much more of a community feel now. It has a much broader appeal,” Altenburg said.

University to acquire property housing Hegarty’s Legal dispute may be settled soon By Jeff Engel jeffrey.engel@marquette.edu

A legal dispute between Marquette and St. James Estates LLC over property that includes Jim Hegarty’s Pub may be settled within the next two weeks. Once an amount is determined, the university will purchase the property at 1120 W. Wells St., said Tim Olsen, communication man-

ager in the Ofﬁce of Marketing and Communication, in an e-mail. St. James and Marquette have a joint condominium agreement for the structure. Last September, St. James ﬁled suit against the university for allegedly interfering with a property transaction when the school learned that a medical clinic was proposed for the site. St. James has withdrawn two of the three counts of its complaint related to “intentional interference with contract and punitive damages,” said Mary Pat Pfeil, senior director of university communication, in an e-mail

last week. Marquette, in turn, will withdraw its motion to dismiss the case by Thursday, Olsen said. Last August, St. James received a $2 million offer from a third party wanting to open a medical clinic on the property, according to the lawsuit. Marquette valued the property at $525,000. The lawsuit contended that Marquette amended the condominium agreement in September to prohibit any “medical or hazardous waste” on the property. The suite also claimed that St. James “suffered damages” as a result of the

university’s actions. According to the lawsuit, the university said the proposed transaction did not “constitute an offer from a bona ﬁde third party.” The university contended that the condominium agreement gave it right of ﬁrst refusal on sales of the property, no matter the proposed buyer, allowing the university the right to a property purchase transaction before St. James sold to a third party. Appraisals requested by the university have been completed, Olsen said. The “fair market values” determined by the appraisals will

be addressed in the university’s response it will ﬁle by Thursday. The purchasing amount will be decided by the court or by the two parties outside of court. Olsen said the university has no objection to a “properly managed” pub on the site. “While the university has no immediate plans for the property, its strategic location as part of larger property on the northeast corner of 12th and Wells is signiﬁcant as we consider the long-term needs of the university,” Pfeil said. St. James had not responded to interview requests at deadline.

the technology to other locations,” Kirberg said. He said he has been working more on the Web site the technology will use. Christopher Hallberg, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences, created and designed the product. Hallberg, who was an engineering student his freshman year, said the experience helped in developing Smug. Hallberg said group members had partnered with Stone Creek

after their competition adviser had made the connection for them. It also helped that the design of the mugs used at Stone Creek ﬁt perfectly with the technology, he said. The group has already talked to the mug manufacturer to place the technology for testing next month. Hallberg said they have not completely settled on the pricing for Smug. Consumers will either pay $10 for the mug, then

pay to start a balance, or pay $30 and have a balance already set. He said the technology is patent pending, but the group hopes to pitch the technology to others if testing goes well. “We would like to have a partner with 30 locations,” Hallberg said. “The more locations use the technology, the faster it will serve the public.” The group competed against 15 others and won a $1,500 cash

prize, Kirberg said. Timothy Keane, director of the Kohler Center for Entrepreneurship, said the purpose of the competition is to get students to try out their ideas. He said 75 percent of businesses use entrepreneurial methods, and students should be skilled in this area. “Many students end up owning their own business,” Keane said. “Small companies and businesses are essential to our economy.”

Flynn’s position on guns dead on Milwaukee Police Department Chief Edward Flynn suffered heavy criticism last week for his response to an advisory released last Monday by state Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen that reaffirmed the right of citizens to openly carry guns in Wisconsin. Flynn replied that he will continue to instruct his officers to stop and question any person walking the streets of Milwaukee openly carrying a gun. We agree wholeheartedly with Flynn’s stance. Crime and illegal guns are indisputably a serious problem for Milwaukee. Promoting public safety is inextricably intertwined Percent of arrestees in with all of the other needs in the a nationwide study who city, and other efforts will flountold researchers it was der without a tough-on-crime easy to get firearms stance. A safe city is essential for illegally encouraging investors to put their dollars into Milwaukee, attracting business and the jobs it brings, Percent of arrestees in the keeping kids in school — the list same study that said they goes on. Public safety should be could get a gun in a week the city’s number one priority. We would never speak against the Second Amendment right of law-abiding citizens to carry a firearm. But realistically, in this less-than-perfect-world, not all citizens follow the law. The MPD reports that 43,849 crimes were committed last year alone, a number is lower than many of the previous years. In a 1997 National Institute of Justice survey conducted in several major American cities, 55 percent of arrestees told researchers that it was easy to get firearms illegally and 34 percent said they could obtain a gun in less than a week. With such high incidence of crime and the self-professed ability of criminals to bypass gun laws, it would be irresponsible of the police to not question someone strolling through the city openly armed. “Unless you’re going to have your permit tattooed to your head,” as Flynn put it, we believe the police should question gun owners when they see them carrying weapons or when they perceive a threat of any kind. Context is everything. Clearly, an outdoorsman in rural Wisconsin has good reason to carry a rifle during hunting season. But a person in Milwaukee with a handgun on his hip merits further scrutiny and should absolutely be stopped and questioned. For those carrying a weapon for their protection only, this should be seen as a good thing — if truly interested in protecting their personal safety, legal gun carriers should be happy to know that armed Milwaukeeans will be questioned if seen by police. Clearly, Flynn is doing something right. His efforts last year to build partnerships with the community and deploy officers based on data contributed to a 10 percent decrease in violent crime from the previous year. Homicides dropped 32.4 percent to the lowest Milwaukee has seen since 1985. Keep up the good work, Chief Flynn. Continue questioning those openly carrying weapons on city streets. Milwaukee needs more of what we have seen this past year.

Dear Marquette University: This relationship is over “Here’s to you...”

Lindsay Fiori Dear Marquette University, It’s over. I just cannot be a part of this relationship anymore. It is with a heavy heart that I write these words to you, but please understand it is for the best. I know we’ve been through a lot together, but I have to move on. I have to walk across that stage and get my diploma. It’s time for me to start a new chapter in my life, and I’m sorry but you cannot be a part of it. We had a good run — I won’t deny it — but we just aren’t right for each other anymore. Since we met four years ago, we’ve both changed. I’m a different person than I was when I moved into your beer-canshaped residence hall. I’ve grown up and figured out a lot about who I am along the way. I’ve learned about the Vietnam War, different types of press releases and the books of the Bible. I’ve met my best friends. I’ve built houses, raised money for cancer and traveled abroad.

The Final Countdown

RENEE ROW LIVE WHERE YOU CAN WALK TO CLASSES

“We’re leaving together/but still it’s farewell/and maybe we’ll come back,/to earth, who can tell?

The 1980s trademark synthesizer echoes in my head as we near the final day… But over that musical sound, a question occurs to me that I never truly asked myself during my college career: What else could I have been doing these past four years had I foregone my Marquette education for a different life experience? A degree is not necessary for success or happiness. Bill Gates didn’t have one when he founded Microsoft. Neither did President Lincoln, Walt Disney or Thomas Edison. Peter Jennings, Elvis Presley, Larry King: All famously successful folks without a college degree. In many news articles and blogs, I’ve heard the argument that the necessity of a college degree is a myth. Though we graduate with a degree, many also graduate with loans they incurred while missing out on four years of earnings. So I looked into it and tried to see what could have been if I hadn’t troubled myself with this education. I found a few appealing jobs I could have adopted after high school. I could have auditioned to be one of those women who hold the cases on “Deal or No Deal” and worked hard at merely looking good and saying, “Hi Howie.” I could have begun preparing to become president of the United States in 2024 when I will finally meet the constitutional age requirement. I could have worked as a construction worker or tried out for “American Idol.” Any of us could have made more than $50,000 a year as a funeral director, elevator repairer, fashion designer, cosmetologist, commercial pilot, or manager of fire fighting and prevention — all jobs that do not require a college degree, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and CBSalary.com. But we didn’t do those things. Though it is definitely possible to thrive without the diplomas we’ve worked for, our degrees are not trivial. Our Marquette education adds unique experiences to our lives that I’m guessing most of us wouldn’t trade for anything. We’ve grown in an environment that both nurtures and challenges us to become “men and women for others.” The invaluable contributions of instructors, mentors and peers have guided this journey. Yes, this is the final countdown. But it’s also the acknowledgment that our time in this community provides the beginning of a new chapter of our lives filled with happiness, success and wonder. Just like the last four years. megan.hren@marquette.edu

OBITUARY

Math teacher remembered as dedicated and caring Lawrence Hancock, a mathematics specialist in Marquette’s Educational Opportunity Program, died Thursday of natural causes. Hancock, 48, died at approximately 6 p.m. near Canal Street and Emmber Lane of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, according to the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office. Hancock had worked at Marquette for 20 years teaching math courses to first-generation college students through EOP, said program director Sande Robinson. “He was absolutely committed to it and enjoyed all of the teaching,” Robinson said. “He was always the first one here in the morning.” Robinson said Hancock’s colleagues and students will greatly miss his kind and personable character. “He had one of those personalities that you just don’t meet that often,” she said. “People gravitated toward him.” Raquel Roque, a freshman in the College of Arts & Sciences, was one of Hancock’s students. She said he was a helpful and patient educator who showed great dedication to his profession. “He was always there for his students,” Roque said. “He really cared.”

The university released a statement about Hancock’s death, stating, “We express our sympathy and heartfelt condolences to the Hancock family and all those whose lives were touched by him. Lawrence, who was fondly called ‘Unk’ by those who knew him best at Marquette, was an important member of the university family... The Hancock family and those who knew Lawrence are in our thoughts and prayers.” In addition to tutoring at Marquette, Hancock was also a jazz aﬁcionado and musician, Robinson said. Under the on-air name “Uncle Larry,” Hancock hosted a radio program in Madison for about 20 years. “Larry brought a lot of things to the program,” said Norman Stockwell, operations coordinator for WORT community radio. “He had a wonderful personality, a sense of humor, a dedication to the music and a vast knowledge of jazz. He will be greatly missed.” Hancock is survived by his wife Mari and sons Randy and Isaiah. A memorial service for Hancock will be held Thursday from 4 to 5 p.m. in the Chapel of the Holy Family. - Marie Gentile

Increases funding for Program Board By Tori Dykes victoria.dykes@marquette.edu

Marquette Student Government passed its budget for the 2010 ﬁscal year with seven senators absent at the April 23 Senate meeting. Legislative Vice President Adam Tandez, a junior in the College of Nursing, originally wanted to table the budget until next week’s meeting because so many senators were absent. Tandez said he was worried the absences would limit the amount of debate about the budget and hurt the budget’s chances of passing. It needed the votes for 20 of the 22 present senators to pass. However, after conversing with the other MUSG executive

board members, he decided to go forth with trying to pass the budget, because if it was not passed this week, the Student Organization Allocations Committee would not be able to approve the club sports funding requests for the fall. The deadline for club sports funding requests was April 24. The vote was 21-1 in favor of the budget. Tandez said the absences were excused. Senators did not make any changes to the budget and passed it after a half hour of explanations, questions and debate. The only senator to vote against the budget was Abe Matthew, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences. Matthew said the process of crafting the budget needs to be re-evaluated and that more money needs to go to student organizations rather than to the Program Board. The Program Board received 54 percent of the revenue from

the budget. Financial Vice President Jon Giel, a junior in the College of Business Administration, justified giving more money to the Program Board by citing a 2007 survey that found less than 50 percent of students supported funding off-campus student organizations and club sports events, while 95 percent supported funding on-campus events. But nearly 70 percent of money given to organizations and club sports through SOA is spent offcampus, Giel said. Most senators said they were satisfied with the budget, particularly the additional money designated for bringing speakers to campus. That line saw a $20,000 increase from the last fiscal year to $60,000. “It’s a budget that clearly reflects the voices of the students,” said Senator Emil Ovbiagele, a freshman in the College of Arts & Sciences.

Anonymous gifts donated to schools $50 million given to 13 universities across the country By Matthew Reddin matthew.reddin@marquette.edu

The Summerfest grounds will see a slight renovation for this year’s festival. The M&I Classic Rock Stage will expand to allow bigger audiences. The new space will give an extra 2,300 people room to dance and party.

‘Big Gig’ stage expands More room for dancing crowds at Summerfest By Tony DiZinno anthony.dizinno@marquette.edu

Summerfest is revamping one of its main stages to accommodate enough people to rock out at this year’s “Big Gig.” On Thursday, both the Summerfest board of directors and Milwaukee World Festival President and CEO Don Smiley

conﬁrmed that the M&I Classic Rock Stage will be expanded to allow room for more dancing and partying. Kristin Chuckel, marketing and public relations manager for World Festival Productions, a division of Milwaukee World Festival said the stage’s previous capacity accommodated roughly 7,000 people in a 35,700-square-foot area. The expansion will allow about 9,300 people with more than 10,000 square feet added. The new area is roughly 46,500 square feet, Chuckel said. John Boler, vice president of

sales and marketing for Milwaukee World Festival, explained the reasons behind the change. “As the M&I Classic Rock Stage has grown in popularity year after year, it was time to reassess how to best utilize the available real estate to accommodate the larger number of attendees in the area while providing a highquality experience for everyone,” Boler said via e-mail. According to the Summerfest Web site, the stage is not permanent and can therefore be moved easily. See Fest, page 10

Thirteen universities have received mysterious multi-million dollar donations since March 1, with instructions not to seek out the identity of the donor or donors. The total amount of money donated thus far is more than $50 million. The only similarity among the universities is they are all led by women. Among the schools that have received donations are Montclair State University in New Jersey, which received $5 million, the University of North Carolina-Greensboro, which received $6 million, and Michigan State University, which received $10 million—the largest of the donations thus far—and the University of North Carolina-Ashville, which received $1.5 million. Bob Groves, Vice-President for University Advancement at Michi-

gan State, said he had no idea the donation would be so substantial until the university received it on April 2. He said the donation consisted of two checks, one for $7 million and the other for $3 million. The $7 million check was allocated for ﬁnancial aid and scholarships for women and minorities, while the remaining $3 million was allocated for unrestricted use by MSU. Groves said he wasn’t sure why MSU received the most from the anonymous donor or donors. “I would hope that our values align with the donor’s,” said Groves, who also cited the university’s size of more than 40,000 undergraduates, as a possible reason. “I’m only speculating on that point though.” Groves said the university had not yet decided what to use the unrestricted $3 million for, although it would probably be lumped in with other unrestricted funds for larger projects. “They’ll be used on something that’s going to make a difference for a long time,” Groves said. Steve Gilliam, a spokesman for See Donor, page 10

Climate concerns Catholics Coalition says caring for Earth a moral obligation By Kaellen Hessel kaellen.hessel@marquette.edu

Photo illustration by Lauren Stoxen/lauren.stoxen@marquette.edu

A group of Catholic organizations are banning together to combat global issues surrounding earth’s climate change.

A coalition of Catholic organizations announced the creation of the Catholic Climate Covenant as a way of responding to the impacts of climate change. The initiative’s Web site said Catholics have a moral obligation to care for the Earth and the poor, who are hit hardest by climate change. This is an opportunity to embrace part of the tradition of being good stewards towards creation, said Dan Misleh, executive director of the Catholic Coalition on Climate Change which launched the initiative. It is part of who Catholics are at the core, he said.

The heart of the covenant, which includes both lobbying and education, is the St. Francis Pledge, Misleh said. The pledge encourages people to pray about climate change, learn about it, assess their carbon footprint, act on the results of their assessment and advocate for the poor who are hurt by climate change, Misleh said. “It’s not multiple choice,” he said. “We want people to do all parts.” St. Francis, the patron saint of ecology, was deeply passionate about poverty and creation, Misleh said. “His model is a good example to follow when we deal with climate change,” he said. Shaun Ferris — senior technical advisor for agriculture and environment at Catholic Relief Services, a member of the coalition — said the people suffering the most are the poor who contributed the least to the problem.

Rich countries can invest in solutions to climate change, but poor countries do not have the income or assets to adjust to it, he said. They have to live with what is going on instead of just turning up their air conditioners, Ferris said. Variable and extreme weather, increased frequency and longer duration of droughts are effects of climate change, he said. As droughts become more frequent, people lack more food and income, Ferris said. Changes in human and crop diseases are also a result of climate change, he said. Malaria is becoming more common in areas where it usually is not found and is also mutating more quickly, Ferris said. The ice caps are melting and raising water levels, said Jame Schaefer, associate theology professor. Due to coastal ﬂooding, the poor will have difﬁculty living See Climate, page 10

offenses — I just can’t see how the public will ever support that.” Vos said giving ﬁrst-time offenders a second chance is ﬁne, but cautioned against going too far. “If the idea is to say that we’re willing to wipe away dozens of offenses, I’d rather err on the side of letting the public know,” he said. Bill Lueders, president of the Wisconsin Freedom of Information Council, said a better way to combat employment discrimina-

tion would be to enforce existing laws, rather than hiding information from prospective employers. “The whole premise that there’s nothing the state of Wisconsin can do to prevent employment discrimination except prevent the information from being out there — that’s obnoxious,” he said. “Why not try enforcing that law rather than removing information?” Lueders also said he would have rather seen this issue played out in a public forum, rather than buried in the state budget. Tom Sheehan, a spokesman for the state courts ofﬁce, said the change did not come at their request. “It’s a decision best left to the legislature,” he said.

announced March 20. Vice-Chancellor of Alumni and Development William Massey said the gift’s nature of true anonymity required the university to investigate the gift’s intent before accepting it. “We did our due diligence,” said Massey, who said UNCA checked with the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Homeland Security after receiving the gift. Massey said that, similar to UNCG and most of the other gifts, the donation was divided into two parts. The first $1 million of the gift was allocated to create scholarships for women and minorities, and the remaining $500,000 will be used to purchase science equipment and help create professorships, Massey said. Despite the similarities among the gifts, Massey said it was impossible to say for sure that all of these donations came from the same donor or donors. “There is no reason to believe, or not believe, they are from the same source,” Massey said. However, Massey did commend the donor for the gift, saying that the complete anonymity of the gift deserved “profound appreciation.” “This is the most selfless type of giving,” Massey said. “It’s entirely to benefit someone else, without expecting any recognition for it.”

there but have no place to move, said Schaefer, who directs the interdisciplinary program in environmental ethics. Certain crops will not be able to grow in areas they previously did’ which will cause people who grow them to migrate, she said. “We think two of the biggest threats are climate change and global poverty,” Ferris said. The Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities, a coalition member, is concerned about how climate change will affect the poor, said Joshua McElwee, peace and justice intern at the ACCU. Catholic colleges that are members of the association, including Marquette, have shown interest in the issue by creating new courses and service opportunities to deal with it, McElwee said. It is up to individual institutions to determine how they will respond to the covenant, he said. Marquette’s sustainability ofﬁcer is looking at the covenant and will make a recommendation to senior leaders, Tim Olsen, communication manager at Marquette, said in an e-mail.

the University of North CarolinaGreensboro, said he was stunned to hear about the donation. “The weight of it was amazing,” Gilliam said. “It was like manna from heaven.” Gilliam said the university received the donation in early March, but it waited two or three weeks until March 19 to announce that the school had received the $6 million. While $5 million of the donation was earmarked for scholarships, Gilliam said UNCG administrators plan to use the remaining $1 million to create two distinguished professorships, along with contributions from the North Carolina Distinguished Professorship Endowment Fund and the C.D. Spangler Foundation. Gilliam said creating professorships was one of the goals of a recent fundraising campaign, which is coming to a close this year. “It was a nice way to get into the ﬁnal three or four months of the campaign,” said Gilliam. The University of North Carolina-Asheville received an anonymous donation of $1.5 million,

It was originally situated on the south side of the facility, adjacent to the Marcus Ampitheater, but will be moved to the east, closer to the walk along Lake Michigan. “This re-positioning will occur by relocating and erecting the temporary stage structure further east and changing the angle it is positioned at in order to create a larger space for the audience,” Boler said. Milwaukee World Festival organizes Summerfest and other summer festivals that take place on the Summerfest grounds, located at 200 N. Harbor Dr., just off the lakefront and adjacent to Interstate-794. Boler said despite concerns over ticket sales with the economic effects of increased unemployment and reductions in consumer spending, numbers have been tracking similar to 2008. “We are pleasantly surprised at the solid ticket sales for the acts in the Marcus Amphitheater thus far,” Boler said. “Summer-

fest’s general admission ticket pricing represents an amazing value for music fans at only $15 or $8 per ticket.” At last year’s Earth, Wind & Fire concert, there were more people than available capacity at the stage. “The expansion should allow for more room and more people,” Chuckel said. “We hope these changes will allow for the necessary demand for some of our events.” M&I Bank is in its fourth year as title sponsor of the Classic Rock Stage, having taken over prior to the 2006 music festival, said Sara Schmitz, a spokeswoman for M&I Bank. “Although M&I had no role in either decision or expense, it’s good to have our presence increased at the event,” Schmitz said. “This was a Summerfest decision and a Summerfest expense.” The Summerfest Web site said the grounds are spread over 75 acres parallel to Lake Michigan. The expansion was available to the east along Lake Michigan since the previous setup had a lot of unused land while concert-goers went elsewhere on the premises. According to the 2009 Summerfest schedule, Earth, Wind & Fire will repeat their performance at this year’s event, playing with Chicago on June 30. The entire event runs June 25 through July 9. Ron Hutcheson, a spokesman for Live Nation, a business that produces, markets and sells live concerts, said although Live Nation is not afﬁliated with Summerfest, it was still positive to hear of an increase in awareness for these shows. “The summer is the time to be out and enjoying all these shows, and that’s why we do what we do,” Hutcheson said. “Although we’re not afﬁliated with Summerfest, it’s still good to hear there is renewed interest both in Milwaukee and the rest of the Midwest.”

Sport as life’s best constant John Borneman

Tim Grogan after the Palisades tournament. Maybe he’s greedy. Maybe he’s just a perfectionist. But with all the success he’s had this year, Van Sickle still sounded disappointed about the tournaments (there weren’t many) he couldn’t take home. “I was extremely pleased with the fall season and winning four out of six events,” he said. “But at times I played really well and at times I let some good rounds slip away. That’s something that’s kind of aggravating.” Schwab had a solid, yet not spectacular senior campaign, highlighted by his 1-under par finish at the Palisades Collegiate Classic and his tie for 11th

Writing a farewell column is hard. I mean, seriously. I still don’t fully believe I’m about to graduate in May, and I’m supposed to wrap up three and a half years of covering Marquette sports with a meaningful twist? It doesn’t seem possible. I haven’t been writing columns long, but I’ve thought for weeks about what I would say during my last stint on the soapbox. Then I got lucky. See almost two weeks ago, Marquette student Ian Parker bowled the first-ever 300 game at the Union Sports Annex during his Wednesday-night bowling league. That’s a perfect game. Twelve consecutive strikes. Impressive. Parker’s performance got me thinking. For the majority of Marquette’s student-athletes (and Division I athletes in general) graduation is celebrated as the “end” of their athletic careers. But isn’t the beauty of sport the fact that its influence never really leaves us? Think about Parker. Aside from his ability to throw a bowling ball, there isn’t anything particularly “athletic” about his appearance (and let’s grant, for the sake of this column, that bowling is a sport). He’s not a 6-foot-5, 250-pound beast; he’s about 5-foot-9 or so and rail thin. But no bowler will ever bowl a higher score than the one Parker turned in, and lest you think this was a fluke, it was his third perfect game. (“I was the most drunk for this one,” Parker said. O.K. so it’s a different kind of athleticism, but you get the point.) Parker, a 24-year old fifthyear senior, has been bowling in leagues since he was six-years old. His first 300 game came when he was 16-years old, and he said he’s still the youngest person in the state of Vermont to bowl a perfect game. Parker will graduate in May with no illusions of being a sunglasses-wearing, crotchXing Pete Weber clone. But that doesn’t mean he has to stop bowling. The same goes for the rest of us graduating seniors. Even if you don’t have an athletic bone in your body, sport will always be there for you. Sport is a release from everyday life, entertainment in the most hands-on sense of the word. We place so much emphasis on these games because they allow us to escape and sometimes shape who we are. You can play fantasy football, but

Marquette junior Katlin Millin took home the 400-meters title for the Golden Eagles last weekend during the Marquette Twilight meet at Valley Fields.

Finding fire amidst the cold Millin, James win events at Twilight By Eric Grover eric.grover@marquette.edu

Picture this — a bunch of restless spectators huddled idly by a storage shed just to partially stay out of the rain, athletes huddled in packs trying to deflect the chilling winds and very few content faces. The Marquette Twilight track meet happened last weekend, but with the weather conditions on Saturday,

it certainly wasn’t easy and was anything but ideal. The day started in the 70’s but quickly dropped to the 40’s by 1 p.m., the time the meet was scheduled to start. It felt much colder than that. Lightning storms delayed competition for a while, but things eventually got under way. And despite the dreary conditions, the Marquette track team put together a solid performance. “Definitely the weather had a big impact on the meet itself,” coach Bert Rogers said. “For most of the meet, the issue became more the cold and wind

rather than the rain. But nobody was complaining about anything; we still had the fire in our eyes. We buckled down and got after it and competed pretty well.” Senior Scott Mueller put in a hard day’s work with a second place finish in the 1,500-meters and a victory in the 5,000-meters. While the weather seemed to bother just about everyone, Mueller made the best of his situation and excelled. “As long as you accept that you’re not going to get a fast time per se, and just move and race hard, then that’s fine,” he said. “So for me, it didn’t have

that much of an effect at all. I think a lot of people let it get in their head and kind of mess up their race, so you need to take it as it comes and go out there and compete no matter what.” Another highlight of the day for the Golden Eagles was the stand-out performances of the throwers on both men’s and women’s sides. The team got off to a good start with the first event of the day, the men’s javelin, which was won by sophomore Jonathan Kusowski with a throw of 50.97 meters. The women’s See Fire, page 13

A season of ‘missed opportunities’ Golden Eagles end year without a win By Pete Worth peter.worth@marquette.edu

For the members of the Marquette golf team, the 2008-’09 season didn’t disappoint. The thing is, it didn’t thrill them either. With three members returning from a 2007-’08 Big East Championship team, the Golden Eagles seemed poised to match, if not improve, on their three team victories last season. Yet, despite the consistently stellar play of senior Mike Van Sickle, Marquette could never fit all its pieces together simultane-

His total of ﬁve victories this year leads the nation, as does his scoring average (69.67), total birdies (160) and eagles (8). Bud Cauley (Alabama), Morgan Hoffman (Oklahoma State), Trent Leon (Oklahoma State), Jaime Lovemark (USC), Adam Mitchell (Georgia), Cameron Tringale (Georgia Tech) and Steve Ziegler (Stanford) will join Van Sickle on the American squad. Men’s tennis The Big East tennis awards were handed out last week and two Marquette players were honored for their seasons. Senior Trent Hagan and junior Du-

san Medan were both named to the All-Big East Men’s Tennis Team. The accolade is no surprise as Hagan and Medan were big time contributors in leading the Golden Eagles to a 17-6 record and sixth-place ﬁnish at the Big East Championships. Medan was perhaps the team’s most consistent player. He posted a 31-9 record in singles, playing at mostly No. 2. He went 3-0 in singles play at the Championships and was the lone Marquette player to record a win in the Golden Eagles’ third-round loss to St. John’s. Hagan served as the team’s vocal leader and routinely played the opposing team’s best player this season. He went 21-14 in singles play, including a solid 2-1 at the championships. The pair also went 1-0 in their lone match together at doubles.

To no one’s surprise, junior Erynn James once again won the high jump with a leap of 1.62-meters, a full tenth higher than her nearest competitor. Plagued by a series of injuries over her Marquette career, she was quick to admit her hesitation competing in the weather. “Last time I jumped in the rain I slipped, so I get really scared about jumping in rainy weather,” James said. “It made me really nervous. I was just happy to get a warm-up in before next week.” Also turning in victories for the Golden Eagles were Katlin Millin in the 400-meters, Nick Byom in the high jump, and Shawn McLarney in the long jump. Freshman Jenny Zahn won the 400-meter hurdles, but finished just shy of a Big East mark. Competing unattached, former Marquette athlete Eric Matuszewski won the shot put. It’s now crunch time for the Golden Eagles, who face the pressure of next weekend’s Big East Championships along with the stresses of final exams. The week will serve as a tune-up for Marquette, getting ready for the big stage on Villanova’s campus. “Our expectations are what they always are: We want to perform to our capabilities,” Rogers said. “If we do that, team scoring will take care of itself.”

MEN’S SOCCER

A weak ending to a solid spring Rainfall washes out MU’s ﬁnal game By Nick Bullock nickolas.bullock@marquette.edu

Just two minutes after the Marquette men’s soccer team trudged back out onto the pitch Saturday morning, sophomore midfielder Hector Navarro crossed the ball to Nick Kay who knocked it in for the goahead goal. Five minutes after that the Wisconsin D-I Cup was cancelled due to weather. Matches were scheduled to start at 10 a.m. Saturday at Valley Fields, with Marquette to take on Wisconsin and Wisconsin-Milwaukee to take on Wisconsin-Green Bay. The two matches lasted about 15 minutes before lightning first forced play to be delayed. The teams are not planning to schedule any make-up games, spelling the end of the spring exhibition season for the Golden Eagles. Although the team found mixed results in the win and loss columns this spring, players said they felt they were taking definite steps in the right direction. Junior goalkeeper Matt Pyzdrowski said the team’s additional time spent in the weight room has translated to greater physicality but a reduction in fouls. “We’re gaining muscle, we’re gaining weight and we’re not getting knocked off the ball as easy,” Pyzdrowski said. “That definitely helps the frustration level, because in the fall we were getting knocked off the ball, and we’d get frustrated and then get stupid fouls. And that’s not happening anymore.” “No one’s beating us up anymore,” coach Louis Bennett said. This was evidenced by the team’s defeat of Illinois-Chicago April 18, which came just two weeks after a loss in penalty kicks to Wis.-Milwaukee

in the Bob Summy Memorial game. Despite Pyzdrowski’s best efforts against the Panthers, missed shots by his teammates were what eventually sank the Golden Eagles. Against Illinois-Chicago, however, Pyzdrowski recorded two impressive saves — including a mid-air deflection with his foot — that allowed Marquette to avenge a hard-fought 1-0 loss to the Flames in October. Marquette’s spring-season play is all the more impressive when considering the rash of injuries the team dealt with. Freshman defender Paul Monsen (ankle), sophomore midfielder Scott Miller (ankle), junior goalkeeper Keenan Flynn (ankle), junior defender Tim Jallow (mono) and senior midfielder Dan Addis (knee) all missed the entire spring season. Sophomore midfielder Anthony Colaizzi also broke his hand against Illinois-Chicago, but was not expected to miss any time. “Our trainer needs MVP for this spring,” Bennett said. The injury bug which struck the team has forced Bennett to move players into unfamiliar positions on the field, but he has been pleased with the results. “Some guys playing out of position had some of their best games,” Bennett said. “Matt Stummer was playing central defender. Tommy Lynn, who’s a center forward, was playing right-back.” The Golden Eagles feel the adversity they have dealt with this spring, along with the talented incoming recruiting class, will allow them to finally live up to the expectations Bennett brought with him from Wis.Milwaukee. “How mature we are, the team growth, how hard we’ve worked this spring — we’re trying to show it,” freshman midfielder Calum Mallace said. “We realize as a team how much we have grown, and it’s starting to show.”

WOMEN’S SOCCER

Finally ﬁnding the net Golden Eagles score seven spring goals By Tim Kraft timothy.r.kraft@marquette.edu

Scoring goals was never the women’s soccer team’s forte in the 2008 fall season. The Golden Eagles were shut out seven times and only once scored more than two goals in a match. This spring has featured a different Marquette squad — one coach Markus Roeders is very pleased with. “We’re happy, it’s the spring, and it’s always good to play soccer,” Roeders said. “We are using the spring as a learning tool because spring is all about learning.” In ﬁve spring meetings, the Golden Eagles have netted seven goals — a majority of which came against Stephen F. Austin and most recently WisconsinMilwaukee. Although it took a little extra time, the Golden Eagles found the back of the net with great success against Wis.-Milwaukee Thursday at Valley Fields, notching a 3-2 victory. “Positives from the game were

that we scored goals which has been our goal since last fall and also that we fought until the very end,” sophomore midfielder Julia Victor said. The Panthers were first to get on the board when sophomore midfielder Heather Roadhouse volleyed the ball in off of a corner kick. About 10 minutes later, Marquette sophomore Lauren Acree answered back with a nifty run of her own. She beat three defenders before lofting the ball over Wis.-Milwaukee’s keeper and into the net. The second half was a stalemate as neither team could break through, and the game was deadlocked 1-1 going into extra time. In traditional spring exhibition play, the teams played two 15 minute halves, but did not apply the golden goal rule where the first team to score first wins. Just six minutes into the first extra frame, Marquette junior midfielder Brittany Bares placed a cross directly on the right foot of Victor who buried her shot, putting the Golden Eagles up 2-1. However, Wis.-Milwaukee’s leading goal scorer from the fall, Sarah Hagen, tied the game at two apiece with a brilliant strike

from 25 yards out. It wasn’t until the 119th minute that Danielle Martens headed in a rebound off the crossbar to tally the game-winner for the host Golden Eagles. “For us to come back it speaks to the character of where our team is right now,” Roeders said. “We’re trying to develop an attitude that says until the ﬁnal whistle blows, we are in the game and have an opportunity to win.” Acree was pleased with the team’s ability to pull out a win at home against a good Wis.-Milwaukee squad. “I think our team is more ﬁt and we haven’t beat UWM in a while so it’s nice to get a win,” she said. “It’s always a good feeling to beat UWM, and you also never want to lose at home.” Marquette completed its spring season at Soldier Field in Chicago Sunday and Victor thought highly of the team’s overall spring performance. “It feels like we’re very optimistic for the fall, because we have another nine players coming in, and they could bring a lot more,” she said. “But overall there was just something different about the spring … something extra I can’t explain.”

the world of sport is made completely of fantasy â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for now a place where the word â&#x20AC;&#x153;bailoutâ&#x20AC;? only refers to a safe shot on a golf course. Sport gives us memories, and ties us together. Seniors, remember the way you felt when Steve Novak hit a 21-foot jumper to beat Notre Dame 67-65 in January 2006? I thought so. Four years later, remember how you felt when the final seconds ticked during Marquetteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NCAA Tournament loss to Missouri? An unreasonable attachment, maybe, but a powerful unifying force, nonetheless. For me, graduation means the end of press row seating at Marquette games. It means the end of listening to menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball coach Buzz Williams listing off ridiculous percentages and thinking, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Did he just say that?â&#x20AC;? It means no more excuses to see future Marquette greats like golfer Mike Van Sickle up close and in their natural habitat. And it means the end of my girlfriend asking me to mention her dog, Josie, in a column (fetch is a sport, after all). Like a great many graduating seniors Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not exactly sure whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next. But wherever I go, sport will be there too. And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enough for me.

Kretzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 67 at the first round of the Ron Smith/USF Invite was the low round of any Marquette golfer at that tournament, while Siegâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 68 on the final day of the Big East Championship helped the Golden Eagles finish runner-up after a huge early deficit. Haaseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 64 on that same day set a Big East Championship record. Overall, however, Schwab labeled the season as one of â&#x20AC;&#x153;missed opportunities.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played a good schedule against a lot of good teams, but if we had just beaten a couple of them, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a different position than we are now,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were starting to play better. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too bad it had to end.â&#x20AC;?
