Champaign in process of hiring entry-level policemen BY RAFAEL GUERRERO STAFF WRITER
4
For the fi rst time in two years, the city of Champaign will hire entry-level police officers, city offi cials say. The testing process is now underway as the department looks to select the next officers. The city expects to hire three to six new officers. Along with the appointment of a new chief of police in late January, the city was able to keep the police department’s lobby open to the public 24 hours a day, despite concerns that the city was further trimming the department’s budget. Assistant to the chief for community services Rene Dunn said the hiring of entry-level officers is typically an annual event. But deputy chief Holly Nearing said budget cuts have kept the department in a hiring freeze for the past couple of years. She said the department’s budget has not increased, so the department could not hire new officers recently. According to an October 2010 police activity report, the city gathered 406 total applications, including 115 minorities and 81 female applicants — but no hires. “We haven’t been able to hire,” CHUCK KLOSTERMAN Nearing said. “However, with budgetary problems diminishing, we are now anticipating openings.” Dunn said the hirings are necessary in order to address outgoing officers. “As retirements occur, as transfers occur — this is all part of the hiring process,” Dunn said. Champaign will not be the only one benefitting from these hires. Capt. Skip Frost of University Police said the new hires will learn how to build better relationships with the University community and ensure proper collaboration between the two departments to promote safety. “Our department is in charge of a very unique community,” Frost said. “Students are our top priority but not the only priority. It’s always a good thing for us to have

Artist demonstrates intricate art form passed down for 6,000 years BY KLAUDIA DUKALA STAFF WRITER
Students and community members looking for new ways to dye Easter eggs may want to consider the Ukrainian art form of Pysanky. Vera Samycia, Chicagoan egg artist, gave two presentations Wednesday demonstrating the design process of this ancient folk art at the Illini Union and Champaign Public Library. The eggs are created by making intricate patterns on eggshells using dyes and wax. Each egg is unique and painted by hand without

the use of stencils, distinguishing them from American Easter eggs because of the detailed artwork. The Champaign Public Library partnered with the Russian, East European, and Eurasian Center, or REEEC, to organize the event. “This is a very old folk craft, estimated to have started over 6,000 years ago,” said Katrina Chester, program coordinator of the REEEC. “It’s amazing that the craft is still being handed down from generation to generation.” Samycia, who was named a master instructor in Pysanky by the Illinois Arts Council, said she learned
has been mastering the skill for the past 30 years. “My mother tried teaching me when I was younger, but I didn’t really start doing it until I was 31 years old,” Samycia said. She said her mother brought the tradition to the United States from her home village of Stryj, Ukraine, and cherishes the custom. Samycia said it was important to her mother that she learn the craft. At the presentations, Samycia displayed several eggs at different stages in the dying and design process that varied in shape and size. These included ostrich eggs, which take about 88 hours to complete because of their large size, and chicken eggs, which only take about three hours. The brightly colored eggs are

Depending on the different colors and symbols on the eggs, the customary art form is believed to return lost love, enhance friendships and help with fertility. Kathy Ruda, freshman in DGS, said she loved seeing the intricate patterns on Samycia’s eggs. “I can’t believe [Samycia] paints these all by hand,” she said. “They are all so gorgeous and detailed; it’s hard to believe a human being can paint such small details on an egg by hand.”

Q&A: PLAYBOY PHOTOGRAPHER ZACHARY JOHNSTON
Storied director Sato gives Shakespeare a Japanese spin BY MAGGIE O’CONNOR STAFF WRITER
“I’m sorry, I’m rambling aren’t I?” laughed Katherine Norman as she praised the director she had worked with since December. Norman, senior in FAA and one of the witches in “Lady Macbeth: A Kabuki Play,” has worked with her fair share of directors but insists that professor emeritus Shozo Sato is one of the most extraordinary. “I’ve never had a director so present,” Norman explained. “He’s not only directing the entire show, but he does the makeup, designs and makes costumes, stands backstage with us, and sometimes he even holds the curtain for us going on stage. ... He’s just so giving and humble that we sometimes will forget that he is who he is.” Sato — or Sato-Sensei, as many students call him — is currently directing a kabuki adaptation of Shakespeare’s “Macbeth,” which has its final performance Saturday at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. An ancient form of Japanese drama, kabuki combines music and song (ka), dancing (bu) and acting (ki) and is known for its rich, beautiful costumes. In this production, many of the cos-

tumes are original from the debut of the one-woman show “Lady Macbeth” in 1983. Not only has Sato-Sensei made his mark in kabuki theater, but he has also accomplished mastery of each aspect of Japanese Zen ar t. He has achieved the highest ranking in Zen: ikebana (flower arrangements), chanoyu (tea ceremony), landscape design, and sumi-e (ink painting or caligraphy). He is, as his longtime friend and colleague A. Doyle Moore considers, “the ultimate.” “It’s unusual that a person can exceed in any of those crafts, (and) he doesn’t slight any of them,” said Moore, art professor emeritus. Moore has known Sato since they shared their office space when Sato fi rst arrived at the University. “He works steadfast and hard on all of them. (He’s) multi-skilled, but only toward the excellent.” Despite the overwhelming amount of admiration from friends and colleagues, Moore said Sato-Sensei remains grounded because of his art’s philosophy. “He does not argue about right and wrong or good and bad,” Moore continued. “It just simply is, and he tries to make that

US Rep. Tim Johnson to retire after serving 6 terms BY DAVID MERCER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
U.S. Rep. Tim Johnson, R-15, has decided to retire and not run for a seventh term, a Republican Party official said Wednesday. Johnson, a University alumnus, is expected to officially announce his withdrawal from the race this Thursday. The congressman’s reason behind the decision was not clear, but the official said he wanted to spend more time with his family. Johnson is just two weeks removed from a primary victory over two candidates in the new 13th Congressional District, and he was considered a strong candidate for re-election in November. Despite a new congressional district map drawn by Illinois Democrats, national Republicans had largely considered Johnson’s seat safe in the November election, citing his efforts to personally call every resident of his district. Johnson even stayed in Washington during Illinois’ primary election last month where he easily won the GOP nomination. He would have run against Democrat David Gill for the seat. A replacement candidate would be chosen by county officials from the congressional district.
The 65-year-old Johnson, longtime friend of U.S. Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), introduced the presidential candidate at Paul’s speech at the University in March. Johnson said he supported Paul and voted for him in Illinois’ primary. Johnson also has taken a controversial stance on concealed weapons. He introduced the National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity in Congress. Johnson said crime on the University campus may decrease if students could carry guns for protection. When he began campaigning in December, Johnson said the biggest issue that his district faces is the availability of jobs and unemployment. He said he wanted to improve this issue by creating a more lucrative business climate, enhancing infrastructure, strengthening the education system at the University and supporting the agricultural industry in the area. Johnson was first elected to Congress in 2000 after serving in the state General Assembly since 1976. Before that he was a member of the Urbana City Council. If he leaves now, Johnson will have never lost an election.

After the TV show “Girls Next Door” came out, you’d be surprised at how many viewers come to the casting and stuff like that. “Girls Next Door,” I think, personalized it for a lot of girls, and it’s really cool to see them come out. A lot of times they’re bigger fans than the guys we meet.
DI: Do you prefer working with amateurs or professionals? Playboy: Depending on what the assignments are, there are pluses and minuses. A lot of these girls coming out haven’t done modeling before. We’re all professionals at what we do, so we’re really good at making people as comfortable as possible. When you’re working with
what he called “nightmare-like human activities” — hearing air raids, stepping over dead bodies and witnessing other harrowing acts of violence. But instead of tucking these memories away to be forgotten, he learned the importance of peace. “We have to have a better understanding of people to people. ... Peace cannot be dependent on government or industries who promote war,” he said. “So the best way to introduce Japanese culture, how Japanese feel, how Japanese think, how they express themselves (is through) art forms, and that way (is) the best way to improve international relationships.” It was this desire to cross cul-

Mohammed had said at the start of his fi rst trial that he intended to plead guilty and his four co-defendants indicated they would abandon their defense as well. But after a
professionals, that side isn’t as hard. But sometimes, when you’re working with celebrities, you have a publicist who’s breathing down your neck, so it’s not as personal at times. But any time the subject is as excited about what we’re doing as we are, then it makes our job easier and it makes it fun for everybody. Sometimes we take these college girls out to farms with 150 beautiful horses and makeup and everything. They get so wrapped up in it, it’s almost like they’re professional already.
DI: What’s the casting call like? Playboy: So we do a casting process

tural boundaries that motivated Sato to exclaim, “Yes, now is the time!” when, at the age of 30, he received an invitation to be artist-in-residence at the University, where he would eventually become a professor. Now, after nearly 50 years in the United States, Sato has made America his home and considers his students to be part of his family. “My students from the University of Illinois (are) my kids,” Sato said, smiling proudly,.“Because during 1970, ’80, ’90, when I was teaching kabuki, I produced 14 married couples out of my classes, and they have kids. So they’re my grandchildren, in a sense.” Another legacy born of Sato’s
series of pretrial hearings the case was put on hold when the administration decided it wanted to try them in civilian court in the United States. “The Obama Administration is making a terrible mistake by prosecuting the most important terrorism trials of our time in a second-tier system of justice,” said Anthony Romero, the executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union. “The military commissions were set up to achieve easy convictions and hide the reality of torture, not to provide a fair trial.” The other four prisoners are Waleed bin Attash, who allegedly ran an al-Qaida training camp in Afghanistan and researched fl ight simulators and timetables; Ramzi Binalshibh, who allegedly helped fi nd fl ight schools for the hijackers; Ali Abd al-Aziz
lot to do with it, actually. Some girls breeze over it thinking it’s a formality. As a part of Playboy, the biography is a real big part of it. You know, the whole girl next door, what your interests are, hobbies... You never know where those hobbies can fall for other stuff we’re doing. So even if you didn’t get picked for Big Ten, maybe you’re a competitive skier and we’re doing a project about that. Then we snap some photos to go with the biographical information. At the end of casting, we talk to our editors and we kind of go through and make our selections. We try and shoot the day after. While we’re casting, my assistant is scouting locations around town. So Friday, we’ll pick between one or three or four girls and take them to the locations we choose.
design is the Japan House, built under his supervision after the Japanese culture programs outgrew his apartment. The most powerful part of this “family” legacy, however, is that these students have absorbed exactly what Sato had hoped: an understanding of a language and a culture entirely different from their own. “Though this is such a foreign style to us, it has really big ramifications for our work in American plays,” Norman said. “Learning the basics of kabuki has increased our strength and range of performance. ... Everyone in the cast is saying (their) Shakespeare has never been so good.” The high regard for Sato and
Ali, who is accused of helping nine of the hijackers travel to the United States and sending them $120,000 for expenses and fl ight training; and Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi, who is accused of helping the hijackers get money, Western clothing, traveler’s checks and credit cards. James Connell, a lawyer for Aziz Ali, said he believed that his client and al-Hawsawi should be tried separately on non-capital charges because they helped with the logistics of the attacks but had no direct role in planning or carrying them out. “This attempt to expand the reach of the death penalty to people who neither killed nor planned to kill is another example of the second class justice of the military commissions,” Connell said.
POLICE FROM PAGE 1A more patrols around.” The department and the Champaign human resources department oversee the entire process, said human resources director Chris Bezruki . Bezruki said his department administers tests required of all possible candidates. The testing is similar to that of a high school aptitude test, in that candidates are evaluated in certain subjects, including math, reading and writing. He said the applicants will now be evaluated to see who is the best fit. “We rank all the candidates every year, and see how they fit into the areas we (the police and human resources departments) need to address,” Bezruki said. At this point, the application process is closed, and only testing remains to be completed.
his work extends far beyond Japan and the University; Sato has written several books on ikebana and calligraphy that, according to art and graphic design professor emeritus Tom Kovacs, have been the defi ning books on those subjects. He has taken his kabuki plays on international tours and was the first to bring American students to perform kabuki plays in Japan. For his success in bridging cultural gaps and sharing Japanese culture into the Western world, Sato has received countless awards, including one from the emperor of Japan. Now a founder and instructor of an art school in California, where Sato lives along with his
wife, visit to the University will culminate in the Japan House Spring Open House on Saturday. In addition to tea ceremonies, the open house will feature professor Sato’s presentation on kabuki at 11 a.m. “He is very well known in California, (in) all the places that he’s been to where he started programs and changed people’s lives, including mine,” Kovacs said. Faculty, staff, students and national and international audiences have all come to admire and deeply respect Sato for his mastery of such a wide range of art and his groundbreaking work in the exchange between Japanese and American culture.

Survey insufficient for gauging student opinions S
tudents may have recently noticed another survey in their inbox — but, more likely, they haven’t. Last Wednesday, the vice president and chancellor Phyllis Wise, sent a survey to faculty, staff and students as a way to learn more about what the community perceives as “critical issues facing society and Illinois’ role in addressing those challenges.” The survey was only supposed to take about 15 to 30 minutes, but many students probably regarded it as “just another survey” and sent it to the trash. For a University that claims to be mending broken relationships, more interaction would be preferable over an on-
line survey. A more successful form of outreach would have been faceto-face discussion, such as a public forum, showing students, faculty and staff that their opinions are genuinely appreciated. Despite the ease of the online format, students would be more inclined to participate had there been a more personal way to gauge what is important to them. Another missed opportunity with the survey is the apparent disconnect between students and their administration. Students have strong beliefs about “critical issues facing society,” and they aren’t afraid to be vocal about it. On any given day, students can be seen on the Quad and across
campus passionately advocating for issues dear to them. Every year, more and more Registered Student Organizations are added. Students voluntarily attend debates on social and political issues frequently. Knowingly or not, students broadcast their views in a very conspicuous way — all Wise has to do is open her eyes. At the same time, her actions are commendable. The survey is part of a new initiative from the Office of the Chancellor, which she has entitled “Visioning Illinois Excellence into the Future.” As students who have felt left in the dust before, it is great to see a member of the adminis-

his past spring break, after an exhausting experience of trying to fit into clothing that was clearly designed to look good on men only (a suit), I was ready for a snack. Before I could even suggest McDonald’s, my mom gave me an explosive speech about pink slime, “And oh my god, do you know what kind of chemicals they’re putting in that stuff? Just awful! I’m going to stop eating meat altogether.” And so my McDonald’s trips have come to an end. In the same way that the Affordable Care Act has been dubbed ObamaCare or that Social Security is called entitlement spending, the name pink slime has destroyed any reputation “lean, finely textured beef” (LFTB) had. Some history: LFTB has been on the market for the last decade or so but was described as pink slime by Department of Agriculture microbiologist in a 2002 email. More recently, celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has advocated for the product to be removed from school lunches. And so the media uproar began. There are a few things about the process that’s outraging American consumers everywhere. Maybe it’s the thought that ammonium hydroxide is an ingredient, that it’s a filler and not real meat or that scientists and consumer advocates have all deemed it unsafe. None of those things are true, however. The process that creates the

tration looking to renew our trust. Although the results of the climate survey have not yet been finalized and, therefore, the effectiveness of a campus-wide survey is still unknown, we’d like to be sure that the latest survey serves a purpose and prompts positive change.
‘Rise of the Rape Joke’ turns serious problem into punch line
Ammonium hydroxide in food sounds dangerous, but distracts from real problems so-called pink slime was developed by Beef Products Inc. (BPI) in an effort to remove E. coli and salmonella from ground beef. The ammonium hydroxide that is used in the process of creating LFTB does not make it unsafe; in fact, it’s widely used in baked goods, cheeses, chocolate and other confectionery products. Moreover, ammonium hydroxide has been used in food products since 1974, when it was formally approved by the FDA. So why are people so worried about it? We associate ammonium hydroxide with household cleaning agents and that awful smell. However, the amount that is used in food processing is nowhere near a toxic amount. The other point of contention is if it’s real beef. Yes, LFTB is made from a de-boning process that uses every last scrap leftover from the beef carcass. I’m with you, that may not sound entirely appetizing, but that yuck factor is confusing some people into thinking we’re not even eating real meat. Beefisbeef, the website launched by BPI, reminds us that there has yet to be a process that makes inedible meat edible. The Consumer Federation of America affirmed that the levels of ammonia used in LFTB don’t pose a health risk to consumers and even expressed concern that “manufacturers of hamburger patties may replace LFTB with something that has not been processed to assure the same level of safety.” Tyson is saying that beef consumption is on the decline and Chik-fil-A’s everywhere are rejoicing. I say, watch out because rumors about chickens and the “all white meat” are next.

Society, media should stop making light of sexual abuse I’m not saying we shouldn’t take rumors about the food we eat seriously, but we should tune into the facts. We also should be worrying about things out there which are more gross. Does anyone even know what’s in a hot dog? Bologna? Chicken nuggets? The meat in all of these items are often recovered from a more highly mechanized process that may procure things from the carcass we really don’t want to eat. Also, a lot of the processed meats are doused with preservatives that are more powerful than ammonium hydroxide and potentially could have worse health effects. Mark Bittman of the New York Times points out that if pink slime was created as a solution for something, maybe we should spend more of our time worrying about the problem. E. coli is typically found in the digestive track of cows who eat grain, but their stomachs are actually designed to digest grass. “The incomprehensible quantity of manure produced by these cattle — also often containing E. coli — is deposited on the land, sometimes seeping into the water supply; that’s how you wind up with E. coli in vegetables,“ he said. Still think pink slime is the problem? There are more serious issues to worry about, and rumors about pink slime being beef tips soaked in ammonia is not one of them.

irst came the bad: Rainn Wilson’s tasteless tweet about date rape in February — “If I were ever date raped I would want it to be to ‘Whole Lotta Love’ by Led Zeppelin.” Then came the ugly: A recent Belvedere Vodka advertisement that disturbingly showed a picture of a wild-eyed woman trying to escape from the leering grasp of a man, with the caption, “Unlike some people, Belvedere always goes down smoothly.” And now the ugliest of all: Campuses across the country hosting the controversial Barstool Sports’ “Barstool Blackout Tour,” which is essentially a traveling circus of booze and misogynistic T-shirt wearing “dolts,”. Barstool Sports blog president David Portnoy won international disgust in 2010 when he discussed an Australian court’s acquittal of rape charges by a man who said the victim’s jeans were so skinny he needed her help to remove them. Portnoy wrote, “Even though I never condone rape if you’re a size 6 and you’re wearing skinny jeans you kind of deserve to be raped right?” Perhaps in attempts to redeem himself, Portnoy blogged on the Belvedere misstep last week, say-
ing that “as one of the most outspoken advocates against rape and rape culture in the United States” he believed the ad was entirely unacceptable. “Therefore from now on I’m proud to announce that Belvedere will not be served at any Blackout parties,” he wrote. “If people want to get chicks loaded and take advantage of them while drunk they’ll have to choose another vodka to do it.” All of which are leading me to an alarming conclusion: Our country is experiencing, in the words of the Daily Beast, a “Rise of the Rape Joke.” Plenty of Americans, men and women alike, fi nd Portnoy’s antics funny. But plenty of others aren’t laughing. I spoke with Alexandra Bellis, senior in Psychology, who is a FYCARE (First Year Campus Acquaintance Rape Education) facilitator and works for Rape Advocacy Counseling and Education Services in Urbana. She said that when alcohol is involved in sexual assault, blame is more typically shunted onto the victim. Acquaintances of a victim can say, according to Bellis, “She walked home alone, she drank too much, she wore this provocative skirt” and figure “if I never do those things, then this won’t happen to me.” This is entirely untrue. Assault can occur at any time of day, with any person, with or without alcohol and no matter what you’re wearing. But the conception that an assault victim was somehow “asking for it” is entirely too common. So it’s beyond me why this has become acceptable comedy fodder. Even in tamer examples of
“rape humor” in the media, it’s hard not to wince when you think about what is really being said. Bellis cited a “40-Year-Old-Virgin” scene in which one of the men is trying to pick up a drunk woman, and someone says, “In every man there’s a code written that says, “Tackle drunk (women).” The statistics about campus rape are often refuted for being too high. But even on the lower end of estimates — one in five undergraduate women will experience sexual assault — there are inevitably a few of them in your social circles. When you’re saying you “raped” that fi nance test you just took, Bellis says, more likely than not, someone listening isn’t laughing for a very serious reason. Tricia Romano’s piece in The Daily Beast on the subject of the “rape joke” quoted rape survivor Marnie Goodfriend, who said many rapes go unreported “because of pop culture, our society, and myths about rape that if you report a crime, no one is going to believe you — victim blaming,” she said. “And if you are watching a TV show, or you see a tweet about rape, it just morphs into some type of slang.” It’s time to stop giving the rape joke an audience. You don’t have to start fights with everyone you hear that makes a sexist or ignorant comment. You don’t even have to digitally shun those in your friends list who are more on Portnoy’s side of things. But try to think: “Is what I’m saying or tweeting or posting going to hurt someone? Is it really that funny?” Chances are, it’s not.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Eliminate General Assembly Scholarships, legislators have no boundaries The General Assembly Scholarships have long been an issue for the University as well as the taxpayers of Illinois. Most of our student colleagues are likely unaware that they are currently paying a portion of their tuition dollars to support General Assembly Scholarship recipients: The state does not compensate the University for the tuition waivers, creating an unfunded mandate which is passed along to the student body in the form of increased tuition. Legislators are not bound by any particular set of rules when giving out the scholarships, which leaves the system
open for abuse. I support scholarships, and I am more than willing for a portion of my tax dollars to be used to support higher education and help my fellow students afford a degree. Indeed, I am certain that the vast majority of General Assembly Scholarship recipients are deserving of the award. However, I cannot support a general system which is open to political abuse and creates unfunded mandates for public schools which, in the end, force other students to pick up the tab. I would prefer to see the elimination of the General Assembly Scholarships. The University’s Office of Student Financial Aid is much more suited to distribute scholarships to deserving students than our state legislators are. If General Assembly Scholarships were to continue, the state should be required to
compensate the University for lost tuition revenue based on the number of scholarship recipients who choose to attend, as well as place strict guidelines for legislators to follow when determining who should be given the award. It’s question about who should be determining the recipients — legislators or the University itself.

Monsanto claim has several problems, organic farming can be as productive Monsanto insists they are
not against organic farming, but their “scientific” biotech farming will feed the ballooning world population. The claim has several problems. First, many scientists dispute Monsanto’s “science,” including the safety of genetically modified food. Second, organic farming can be as productive as agro-chemical farming. Bio-engineered crops are not as productive as claimed, and more pesticides have to be applied as weeds and pests become more resistant to Monsanto’s technologies. Third, the world food shortage would better be tackled partly by improving food access. Simultaneously, hunger and the lack of access to quality food mar the nation because people lack income or transportation means. Yet, Monsanto’s lobbying and
political fi nancial contributions ensure the agricultural “rule of the game” favors their interests. Monsanto also sued farmers whose crops were contaminated by Monsanto’s genetically modifi ed seeds planted nearby because these farmers essentially “stole” their patented genes by saving seeds that cross-pollinated with the bioengineered pollens carried by winds. Monsanto owns most corn and soybean genes planted in this country. Other farmers feel powerless to produce more with expensive inputs purchased from companies, like Monsanto, to mitigate declining crop prices, which are created by a global food production hierarchy where agribusinesses effectively call the shots.

RSO OF THE WEEK
Alternative Weekend provides students with ways to have fun without alcohol BY ZEFAN AYARA STAFF WRITER
Tired of partying? The RSO Alternative Weekend provides a different experience from a typical Saturday night. Shannon Calus, junior in LAS, and Emma Trapp, junior in Business, started Alternative Weekend in Spring 2010, when they were both freshmen. “We wanted to hang out with people on the weekends, but we noticed there wasn’t much to do besides go out and party,” Calus said, who is now vice president of Alternative Weekend. Calus and Trapp sought to create an organization where they could meet people without having to drink or go to parties. “We are not necessarily an anti-drinking club,” Trapp urged, who is Alternative Weekend’s president. “We just wanted to provide social outlets other than drinking.” Two years after its creation, Calus and Trapp boast 180 members on their organization’s Listserv, and try to host events for the RSO every other weekend. The two founders and the rest of their executive board plan events such as tie-dying, rock climbing
and laser tag. “Anything (our members) would like to do, we try to make it happen,” Calus said. This year, Alternative Weekend’s most popular event was a trip to Curtis Orchard in the fall. The group then came back for a cookout in Illini Grove. “I’ve learned that a lot of people like it when we have events off campus, just so they get a chance to get out,” Trapp said. The club aims to have events every other weekend, but they try to avoid weekends like Dad’s Weekend or the weekend before fi nals. Most of the events are planned by the executive board, which consists of both founders as well as three friends who started the club with them. “I will be graduating next year, so I hope someone will want to take up (a leadership role), but we’ll see how that plays out,” Trapp said. Participants for the events vary from about five to 25 people. The club tries to stay very flexible. Members come to events as they can, and there are no initial dues that have to be paid. “Sometimes (the executive board) will bring stuff. Like for
tie-dying, we’re bringing the dye,” Trapp said. “But it’s just come whenever you’d like to; it’s very open.” Vishal Piryani, freshman in Engineering, is a loyal member of Alternative Weekend, and tries to attend as many of the social events as he can. Like Calus and Trapp, he wanted to make friends at the University without having to go to parties. “Despite the fact that not the same people go (to the events) every time, I still meet people and can hang out with them outside of club events, so it’s a different way to meet lots of different types of people,” he said. Piryani enjoys participating in the organization because its main goal is to meet people and make friends. Alternative Weekend does not have regular meetings, but it communicates with its members through a Listserv and a Facebook group. Calus manages the Facebook group and adds all the events that the club plans. “We’re open to new members at all times,” Calus said, “and we’re always open to input from members about events or how the club can grow.”

A notebook of sheet music lays in front of pianist Dan Pierson. Pierson and the rest of the Jazz Trombone Ensemble practiced at Smith Hall on Tuesday. The ensemble was invited to Paris because of their success in domestic competitions.
Ensemble prepares for trip to Paris Professor Pugh’s Jazz Trombone Ensemble wins Kai Winding International Trombone competition While some students spent their spring break playing on the beaches of South Padre Island or visiting relatives, one group had a vastly different experience. The University of Illinois Jazz Trombone Ensemble, led by Professor Jim Pugh, traveled to Washington, D.C., to participate in the Eastern Trombone Workshop National Jazz Trombone Ensemble Competition. The young program has already accomplished a lot at the University. “(The ensemble has) only been around for the past four to five years,” Pugh said. “But the group is constantly getting better every year, compared to other schools with more well-known programs.” In addition to their success with the domestic competition, the ensemble was named the winner of the prestigious Kai Winding
International Trombone Association competition. This earned the ensemble the right to play at the International Trombone Festival on July 4 through July 7 at the Paris Conservatoire, a first for a University-led ensemble. Pugh said the University group is different from other groups in the style and quality of music it plays. “There have been more students who want to get involved over the years,” he said. “The students write and perform their own music, rather than doing music that everyone else usually plays.” Although they entered a few minor contests last year, this year was the first time the group participated in the two biggest competitions at the same time. The group recorded 15 minutes of music to submit to the competition during their winter concert at the end of last semester. Pugh got the phone call from the Eastern

also learn ensemble skills and how to work in a group setting, Pugh said. It classifies as one of the ensemble requirements for jazz studies majors. “The ensemble is like a traveling road band,” Pugh said. “Since they are playing together all of the time, they sound so much better after each concert.” Jazz ensembles gained notoriety during the 1950s and 1960s, and typically have a group of four trombone sections. Pugh was interested in forming his group based on the sections created by musicians J.J. Winters and Kai Winding. “Winding formed a group of four trombone sections, but I decided to do a five-member model, which I’ve found is more flexible,” he said. “You have an extra voice to move around and do different things.” During spring break, the group performed old and new pieces at
two universities and one high school before arriving in Washington, D.C. “The two concerts we played at were like practice for the major concert,” Pugh said. “By the third concert, it started sounding like a real band that was working together.” Now that the group is back on campus, they are focused on writing new music in addition to building on the songs they already have. “I think we’ve only played one (well-known) arrangement,” said Chapman, graduate student in jazz studies. “Everything else has been personally written by other players.

BIG TEN GYMNASTICS A HANDS-ON GUIDE TO THE UPCOMING MEN’S CHAMPIONSHIPS
BY EMILY BAYCI STAFF WRITER
The men’s gymnastics Big Ten Championships begin Friday at the Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, Iowa. No. 4 Illinois is looking to win its fourth straight title, though the Illini will have to overtake No. 1 Penn State, which they lost to earlier this season. There’s been a battle within the conference all season. In the season opener at the Windy City Invitational, No. 6 Ohio State beat Illinois, No. 5 Minnesota and No. 8 Michigan. Later in the season, Illinois and Minnesota defeated Ohio State, and Michigan beat Penn State. “I think this is going to be a dogfight,” Michigan head coach Kurt Golder said.“I still think and have thought all along that Illinois is the best team. I don’t think that anybody is going to run away with it.”

Football playing catch-up at practice Coaches concerned with offensive depth BY CHAD THORNBURG STAFF WRITER
The spring football season is typically a time for fine-tuning and improvement, but the Illinois team has been playing catch up. With almost an entirely new coaching staff, the Illini have had to learn a new playbook on both sides of the ball. “It’s coming along,” junior quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase said. “I think we’ve installed everything that we wanted to this spring. Now it’s just about getting better, getting the tempo going, getting more crisp at what we’re doing, playing faster as a unit.” Head coach Tim Beckman said the Illini won’t move much beyond the basics with just over a week until the Orange and Blue Spring Game. “It’s, to me, another opportunity to get better at blocking and tackling and catching the football — the fundamentals,” Beckman said. “The reasons why teams are winning championships is because they’re fundamentally sound. They tackle well on defense, and then on offense they secure the football. Those are the important things I think that we must achieve.” Beckman acknowledged that there is more change on the offensive side because of the defense’s success last season. The Illini finished seventh in the nation in total defense in 2011-12. “As a football coach I believe it’s about putting your players in successful situations,” he said. Co-offensive coordinators Billy Gonzales and Chris Beatty’s offense will most closely resemble a spread, but both said they will tailor it to the players on the roster. “You’ve got to adjust to what they can do,” Gonzales said. “You’re a bad coach if you’re gonna try and do something that your players can’t get done, so we want to install our base offense plain and simple. Then what we’ll do is we’ll narrow in.” Regardless of what offense or defense the Illini employ, depth is a concern at multiple positions. “That’s the question on this football team,” Beckman said. “It’s an issue. We’ve challenged some of the younger players, but that’s the concern on this coaching staff. I’ve always been involved in programs that try to play 30 guys on offense, 30 guys on defense so that we can keep them fresh as the season goes on and matures. Makes your special teams better. Right now, that’s not the case.” Beckman pointed to running back, offensive line, wide receiver and defense back as areas where depth is lacking. He said the issue can be remedied by recruiting over time. The 2012 recruiting class of 19 should help fill out some positions, but 17 of them won’t arrive until the summer — TaJarvis Fuller and Daniel Rhodes enrolled early. “We got to play with the guys who we got,” said sophomore defensive back Earnest Thomas. “The younger guys, they’re gonna come in and help where they can, but we gotta, as older guys ... we got to learn how to lead and be vocal, leading on the field and off the field.” Among the 19 incoming freshman, 12 play positions that Beckman identified as areas of need: six defensive backs, three running backs, one wide receiver and two offensive linemen. “Wish it was the NFL where we

BY GINA MUELLER STAFF WRITER
After an unofficial visit to the University in the summer of 2008, there was no doubt that the Illinois women’s gymnastics team was where Kelsey Joannides would spend the next four years. “My initial reason for coming here had everything to do with the girls,” Joannides said. “I met the team over the summer when I visited; it was an unofficial visit, and they were all here training when they could have been at home going to the pool and doing stuff, like normal summer stuff. ...They were in the gym with each other choosing to stay on campus, which said a lot about the environment in the school and just how the team worked.” As the Illini host their first ever regional competition Saturday,
Joannides’ leadership and experience will be essential to the team’s success. Welker and Joannides are the only two current Illini who have been members of two teams that advanced to the NCAA Championships. Joannides’ leadership has helped raise the energy level in the gym while keeping focus on their main goal: back-to-back appearances at the NCAA Championships. “Kelsey is such a leader by example; she comes in here every day and she knows how to get her work done and she gets it done,” Landrus said. “She’s been at NCAA nationals twice with the team, so she is very aware of what it takes to get to that level and she tries to push everyday in order to get maximum results come the weekend.”

Illinois’ senior Kelsey Joannides has become a de facto leader on the women’s gymnastics team this season, earning her second Big Ten Championship honor by scoring a 9.9 on the balance beam, crowning her Big Ten Beam Champion. Joannides has been to NCAA nationals twice, and coach, Kim Landrus, has high hopes for this year too.

Softball falls to Redbirds by 1 run BY SEAN HAMMOND STAFF WRITER
After getting swept in three games against Iowa over the weekend, the Illinois softball team was looking to rebound against in-state rival Illinois State on Wednesday night at Eichelberger Field. However, the Illini fell to the Redbirds in a 1-0 pitching duel in which both pitchers surrendered a combined seven hits. Illinois’ Pepper Gay and Illinois State’s Jordan Birch both pitched complete games. Gay struck out nine hitters and walked just two, while Birch allowed only two hits against the Illinois offense. “Pepper’s been throwing outstanding,” head coach Terri Sullivan said. “And you’ve got to give your hats off to Birch, she did the same thing.” Gay has thrown 16 1/3 innings and surrendered just two runs in the past two games but picked up losses in both. The Illini lost 1-0 to Iowa on Sunday in 10 innings. Illinois’ two hits Wednesday were both singles from center fielder Alex Booker and shortstop Jessica Davis. No Illini would cross the plate in the

game, but Davis managed to reach third base in the second inning. Illinois (16-15, 2-4 Big Ten) has scored just two runs in its last four games. “Offense is a tricky thing,” Sullivan said. “Sometimes you just need to get that early run or a couple early hits, and it gets contagious.” “We’re just not stringing together hits,” Booker said. “We’ll get a couple hits here and there, but as a team, collectively, we won’t get those strung-together hits throughout an entire inning.” Wednesday’s game was the last of a five-game road stretch in which the Redbirds (21-15, 6-3 Missouri Valley) didn’t leave Illinois. Gay and Birch yielded just three hits through the fi rst five frames. “I can’t worry about what the offense is doing,” Gay said. “I have to get back there and get the outs that we can get because we know we’re not getting that many runs in.” The Redbirds scored the game’s only run in the top of the sixth inning on a sacrifice fly. To lead off the inning, left fielder Lauren Kellar doubled down the right fi eld line. She then

Illinois’ Pepper Gay pitches against Illinois State at Eichelberger Field. Gay threw nine strikeouts and walked two batters, but it wasn’t enough to defeat the Redbirds on Wednesday. advanced to third on a wild pitch from Gay, and scored one batter later on a sacrifice fly from third baseman Elizabeth Kay. “It’s tough to talk about one run,” Sullivan said. “They got a fair and legitimate double, and wild pitches happen in a game;
you just don’t want to make it be the deciding factor. That run ended up being the difference in the game, but it shouldn’t have been.” The game ended on a long fly ball from Illinois third baseman Jess Perkins that was caught
by Kellar with her back against the outfield fence. Strong winds blew in from center fi eld all game long, providing an obstacle for any potential home run. The Illini battled offensive struggles early in the season, eventually breaking out of the
slump and winning nine of 11 games at one point. “It took us a while to snap out of that,” Sullivan said. “It’s been an up-and-down year offensively for us. We just have to put more pressure on our opponents and play in the moment.”
his staff are exploring is shifting players to different positions. “You gotta move some people around,” Beatty said. “To compete in this league, you better have second and third string guys because everybody else does. We’re not at that point right now but we’re gonna develop it. And that’s kind of one of the things that spring is all for is to develop
it and bring some players along.” Beatty pointed to Brandon Hogan, a player he coached at West Virginia, as someone who benefited from a position change. Hogan originally played receiver for the Mountaineers, but moved to cornerback and was a thirdround draft pick by the Carolina Panthers at the position. Beckman said cornerback Ter-
ry Hawthorne will see some time on the other side of the ball at wide receiver during the next few spring practices. Hawthorne led the defense in interceptions and pass deflections last season with three and 11, respectively, and was sixth on the team in tackles with 60. “I just think that that’s something he’s capable of doing,”
Beckman said. “He’s played cornerback here. He’s been showing that he can do that, so we’re gonna give him the opportunity.” Quarterback Miles Osei and defensive back Jack Ramsey also could have a change in store. Beckman said Ramsey may see snaps at wide receiver and Osei, the third-string quarterback, has been at running back with
the fi rst and second strings in practice. “You want to find the best spot for them,” Beatty said. “It might not be where they are right now, but by the end of spring you want to be able to say, ‘Hey these guys are gonna help us at these spots’ and move those guys around. We’ll do some experimenting here as we go along.”
accolades mean a lot on a personal level because I know it’s something that I can look back and say I really worked hard to earn that,” Joannides said. “It’s not something that I like to show off. It’s not about the awards; it’s the fact that I made it to this level and really accomplished those things. ... I am really proud to have contributed those awards to the Illinois gymnastics name.” At the end of the 2010-11 season, the Illini graduated seniors Allison Buckley and Melissa Fernandez, who were both vital team
leaders. In preparation for this season, Joannides knew that she needed to step up into the leadership role with fellow senior Hannah Welker. “It was something that I was nervous about initially because you can be a vocal leader, you can lead by example and I really wanted to grasp the lead by example concept and go more along that route because I am not the most vocal person,” Joannides said. “I wanted to be able to go out and compete just like Al (Buckley) and Mel (Fer-
nandez) did because they were huge inspirations for me and taught me to be mentally tough in competitions.” Not only does Joannides help her teammates in competition situations, but everyday practices and with schoolwork as well. “When I’m having a bad day in the gym, you can go to her and she’ll calm you down and help you out,” sophomore Sarah Fiedler said. “Even outside of the gym, because we are both business majors, she helps me in academics as well. I defi nitely go to
her for a lot of things.” Head coach Kim Landrus said Joannides has matured not only as a gymnast but also a person. “I think that coming in as a freshman, gymnastically she was good and she just continued to get better and better every year. ... It’s so rewarding to see them go on and get job offers.” After ending her career at Illinois, Joannides plans to enter the working world and doesn’t see gymnastics as a main part of her future. “This whole semester I have
been trying to job search in Chicago since I’m a business major and I wanted to try and fi nd a job there, and I got an offer today (Monday), right before I came here,” she said. “Hopefully, I will be working for a staffi ng firm in the city.” Even with her new job, she plans to stay involved with the program. “I see the girls in my future and I will absolutely be back here to watch meets and support them and keep in touch because these girls are my best friends.”

More online: Check out a video of these

Best class taken at the University Theater 101
Ashley Kelly, senior, women’s track and field Nora Lucas, senior, women’s golf
Best April Fools’ prank you’ve seen
Who do you text the most?
What’s your strangest talent?
My friend told me she was engaged.
A car
Either my mom or my boyfriend
I can do a cartwheel real good.

Saran-wrapping a toilet
Theater 101
My teammate Sunny Kato saran-wrapped everything in her roommate Nikki McGarel’s room, including her bed, pillows, blankets and desk.

Mom
I can pop my shoulder in and out of its socket.
A theme park, I really like roller coasters
Some of the girls on the team
I don’t have one.
I would spend all of it on lottery tickets.
My girlfriend
I can unicycle and juggle at the same time.

than ever before.” Luke Donald returned to No. 1 in the world three weeks ago by winning at Innisbrook. He is one of eight players among the top 20 in the world who have won this year, a list that includes Woods and McIlroy, along with Hunter Mahan (twice), Steve Stricker, Justin Rose and Phil Mickelson, a threat at Augusta even when he’s not playing well. “And you’ve got a guy like Keegan Bradley,” Ogilvy said, referring to the PGA champion who won the first major he ever played. “Nobody ever talked about a Masters rookie with a chance. There’s more people in the conversation, isn’t there?” One conversation that was kept short Wednesday was Masters chairman Billy Payne refusing to discuss the all-male membership at Augusta National. The topic returned this year because IBM appointed Virginia Rometty its CEO. The last four chief executives of Big Blue were invited to be members.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Tiger Woods couldn’t see the green through the trees, though that was only a minor obstacle. He choked up on a five-wood and played a sweeping draw around the pines, over the water and onto the back of the green. As he approached the Sarazen Bridge to the 15th green Wednesday, the grandstand rumbled when fans suddenly rose in unison to see him walk by. Some of them held cameras as high as they could, clicked and hoped for the best. Woods is worth watching at the Masters for all the right reasons. All it took was one win at Bay Hill two weeks ago for Woods to even remotely resemble the guy who once dominated golf. He won by five shots, and, just like that, was elevated to the favorite at Augusta National. “Everything is headed in the right direction at the right time,” Woods said.
But he’s not the only star of this Masters. Rory McIlroy has all the traits of the heir apparent — an easy swing that produces enormous power, a U.S. Open title at age 22, a tennis star for a girlfriend, and an engaging personality - something that Woods is not. In his last 12 tournaments, McIlroy finished third or better eight times, including two wins and a brief stay at No. 1 in the world. “I’m in a great place,” McIlroy said. “I feel like my golf game is in great shape.” There is so much anticipation about this clash of generations it’s as if they were the only two players competing for a green jacket, much like the days of Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer. Far from it. “There probably hasn’t been a Masters with more legitimate chances,” Geoff Ogilvy said before heading out for a fi nal practice round. “I can understand people seeing this as a twoman race, but it’s never been further from the truth. There are more horses in this race
