BOARD OF TRUSTEES
UI budget sees increase across all 3 campuses since last year University owed $325 million from state, official says BY LAUREN ROHR STAFF WRITER
The University’s board of trustees approved a $5.4 billion budget for the 2013 fiscal year at its meeting Friday. The overall budget for all three campuses has increased 7.6 percent since fiscal year 2012. Despite the $155.6 million, or 3.7 percent, rise in the dayto-day operating budget for the 2013 fiscal year, which began July 1, Walter Knorr, vice president and chief financial officer, said the state still owes the University $325 million. About $187 million of that is unpaid from the 2012 fiscal year. The state’s appropriation is at $667 million, a 6 percent decrease from last year’s appropriation. For background information on the new budget, David Merriman, associate director of the University’s Institute of Government and Public Affairs, presented a fiscal overview of the state’s financial situation at the meeting. He concluded that revenue “will not grow much” in the 2013 fiscal year, and although the state’s economic conditions are slowly improving, it will not be enough to improve unemployment in Illinois. Knorr said the board is working to take action in response to the “significantly delayed” state payments. Trustees approved an increase in undergradu-
ate tuition in January as well as a salary increase of just 2.5 percent. “We’re continuing to deal with the uncertainty of the state situation,” Knorr said. However, the University’s payments for employee pension and health care benefits controlled by the state, or payments-on-behalf, are expected to rise $227.6 million, a 28.7 percent increase from last year. Excluding the payments-onbehalf, the day-to-day operating budget rose to about $4.4 billion. Restricted funds, which include research grants and hospital and medical service plan revenues, increased 5.1 percent. Revenue from unrestricted funds, which are mainly tuition and institutional funds, rose 2 percent since last year. These funds comprise about 46 percent of the operating budget. Knorr said this is the “core academic budget” for the University. In addition, about $813 million in total sponsored research will be available for the 2013 fiscal year. Sponsored projects include the $62.3 million for hospital operations and medical services. Trustees also approved the University’s request for $749 million in state operating funds for the 2014 fiscal year. According to a University release, the request is the first step in the annual budget process. It will be submitted to the state and the Illinois Board of Higher Education for consideration.

Nonprofit wants food labels Food and Water Watch petitions for greater transparency with genetically modified foods BY CLAIRE EVERETT STAFF WRITER
The nonprofit Food and Water Watch has chosen ChampaignUrbana as its main campaign site in Illinois as they push for the labeling of genetically modified food. The campaign launched in Champaign-Urbana three weeks ago led by field organizer Hanna Saltzman. Its goal is to get 1,000 signatures from community mem-
bers in the next two months and deliver them to state Sen. Michael Frerichs, D-52, who chairs the state senate’s agriculture and conservation committee. “I want to live in a world where I can walk down the grocery aisle and know whether my sweet corn was grown naturally or whether its DNA was engineered in a laboratory,” Saltzman said. “I envision a world where my food comes from a farm where the farmer

senior in ACES, do not think it is necessary to label genetically modified foods. VerLee said organic foods are the only ones that need a label. “Pretty much everything that is not organic is genetically modified,” VerLee said. “I don’t think it’s necessary to put a label on every box of food.” One of the main concerns companies have with labeling is that it will deter customers from purchasing a product because of the negative connotations associated with genetically modified foods.

This brings their total to more than 500 signatures within the last three weeks. Linda Qiu, campaign volunteer and sophomore in LAS, said she thinks labeling is important, even when it comes to organic food. “I think labeling will be the first step to moving away from having mass-produced food,” Qiu said.

A statistical analysis of University data showed an unexpected result last week — the number of faculty members is decreasing, but the amount of research has been increasing. Christophe Pierre, vice president for academic affairs , told the Academic and Student Affairs Committee that the number of faculty has decreased significantly while research productivity, student enrollment and student interest in attending the University have all increased significantly. And even though the University had less manpower to lend to technological research and development, the federal research expenditure grew by 44 percent in 2011, meaning more research had been conducted in comparison to 2010.

Trustee Karen Hasara asked Pierre if these numbers were a good sign for the university system. Pierre said he had the same doubt. “This combination of trends is not sustainable; it’s working well right now, but at some point it will collapse,” he said. The committee also discussed the importance of recruitment and retention. University statistics for all three campuses showed that the net faculty number has decreased significantly over the years. In 2011, nearly 100 new faculty members were recruited but almost 200 members either retired or resigned. The student enrollment rate, however, continues to increase. The enrollment rate in 2011 increased by more than 26 percent at the Urbana and the Chicago campus from the rate in 2010. “Quality faculty and quality students are the backbone of the University. Academic excellence is our chief prior-

ity,” Pierre said. “We want to recruit the best and support their needs.” In addition to analyzing university statistics, the Student Affairs Office presented the board of trustees with 2012 diversity programs. The six culture centers at the University have been “giving students a home away from home,” said Renee Romano, vice chancellor of student affairs. Romano said that a few years ago, someone drew stick fi gures of Muhammad on the Quad. Later, many Muslim students expressed great concern about the drawings. The Student Affairs investigation group looked into that incident and created the “Tolerance Program,” which encourages students to respond to acts of intolerance on the campus. The Academic and Student Affairs Committe will meet again Nov. 7 in Springfield .

Everlasting Voices: Yeats, Chaunting, and Music William Brooks
Professor of Music, University of York
Since childhood, Irish poet W. B. Yeats (1865–1939) was preoccupied with questions of declamation. In the 1880s he began to practice “chaunting� his work, assisted by the actress Florence Farr and using a “psaltery� (medieval dulcimer-like instrument). Their performances look back to Irish minstrels and ancient Greece and forward to twentieth-century composers Arnold Schoenberg and Harry Partch. William Brooks traces this history, reconstructing Yeats’ readings in performance and through technology.
Everlasting Voices, by William Brooks written for the Irish duo SoundWeave, will be presented September 20, Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. Find more information at music.illinois.edu.
These presentations are free and open to the public. For more information, contact the Center for Advanced Study at 333-6729 or www.cas.illinois.edu.

GMO FROM PAGE 1A Mahomet resident Dave Morgan signed the group’s petition Saturday and said consumers have a right to know what is in their food. “If you’re proud of your genetically modified ingredients, put it on the label,” Morgan said. “What are you trying to hide?” Urbana resident Yelena Forrester also signed the petition and said she thought it was “horrible” that large food companies are spending millions of dollars to fight labeling genetically modified foods. “I think it’s easier for companies if consumers don’t think too hard about what they’re buying,” Forrester said. Saltzman said for her, this campaign is not just about the issue of genetically modified foods but about “giving people the power to take back democracy.”
Monday, September 17, 2012
“There’s a lot of organized money thrown into the situation by wealthy companies who want one world vision,” Saltzman said. “But, if we get enough people’s support, we can make a different world vision come through.” Saltzman said the campaign is a chance to bring together community members and students. She said she will train any volunteers in petitioning media outreach and making phone calls. The kickoff meeting will be held at the Urbana Free Library on Sept. 19 at 7 p.m. “I believe that most people are not apathetic but rather ... do not realize that they actually can change overwhelming issues,” Saltzman said. “When many people each take a seemingly small action, when people come together like that — tremendous change can occur.”

Krannert clears out costumes Biennial costume sale allows room for new supplies BY PULU WANG STAFF WRITER
Vintage ballroom dresses, hats with peacock feathers and a furry black chair were among the items that fi lled the Krannert Center Studio Theatre on Saturday for the biennial costume and prop sale. The costumes and props on sale were used in past productions but must now be sold in order to make room for new supplies for upcoming
shows. More than 100 students and community members trickled through the event between 9 a.m. and noon, rummaging through about 50 bins of used costumes and props. Prices ranged from $1 for a T-shirt to $100 for full-sized, six-piece animal costumes. K r a n ner t ’s pr o p er t ie s director Binky Donley is in charge of all the props for theater and dance. Donley helped at the sale by making sure it remained organized and helping customers check out. She said the theater has limited space for storing costumes and props, so every two years, the theater department goes
through their inventory and put items up for sale that are either duplicates or they simply have no space for anymore. This year, Donley said they expanded the event by moving the prop sale to a room on the lower-level of the building. “We are just recycling everything,” Donley said. Ysaye McKeever, senior in FAA, attended the sale with some of her friends. McKeever said it was her fi rst time attending the event. She walked away with a tank top and leotard. “It’s nice,” she said. “It’s more crowded than I would expect it to be but less crowded than everyone said it was going to be.”
Heather McLaughlin, junior in FAA, and specifically, costume design, said she decided to come to the sale in search of more costumes as she collects them. McLaughlin said her shopping trip was successful. Among her two piles, she took home a blue dress, wool coat, hoodie and pair of shoes. “I love costumes, but that’s just because it’s my career,” she said. “It’s a great sale, so I came out early. I think it’s great that the theater came up with this idea to make extra money while getting extra room in their stock.”

Obama: Their lives, sacrifices will never be forgotten BY JIM KUHNHENN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A NDR EWS AIR FORCE BASE, Md. — Four Americans killed in an attack on a U.S. consulate in Libya returned home Friday, their remains each carried in a slow procession by six Marines as a military band fi lled a vast air base hangar with the mournful hymn “Nearer My God to Thee.” President Barack Obama led the ceremony, recalling their lives in deeply personal terms and declaring the United States will never pull back on its principles or “retreat from the world.” “Their sacrifice will never be forgotten,” Obama said as four fl ag-draped cases rested near him. He had come to witness the return of those slain in the assault on the American diplomatic mission, including the U.S. ambassador, Chris Stevens. In the heat of a presidential election year, the scene was a gripping reminder of the danger facing Americans in diplomatic and military service every day, and of the turmoil in an incendiary region of the world that continues to test Obama’s leadership. Always in the background, campaign politics gave way to
a sense of sheer loss. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s voice broke as she spoke before the president, and she appeared to be fighting tears as she listened to him. In addition to Stevens, the ceremony also honored three other Americans killed in Benghazi — Sean Smith, an Air Force veteran who worked as an information management specialist for the State Department; Glen A. Doherty, a former Navy SEAL who worked for a private security fi rm and was protecting the consulate in Benghazi; and Tyrone S. Woods, also a former Navy SEAL who had served protective duty in various U.S. posts. “They knew the danger, and they accepted it,” Obama said. “They didn’t simply embrace the American ideal. They lived it.” The ceremony recalled one 14 years ago, when President Bill Clinton led a ceremony at Andrews for the return of remains of 10 Americans killed in a bombing in Nairobi. The presidential election, however, did not recede for the day. Less than two hours after the ceremony, Obama took his motorcade on an unscheduled trip to the Democratic Par-
ty headquarters to hold political meetings. In the evening, he planned to attend a previously arranged fundraiser in Washington. The transfer of remains came three days after an attack on the consulate, one of a series of assaults on U.S. outposts in Muslim countries that U.S. officials blame on an anti-Muslim video made in the United States. Clinton said the rage and violence aimed at American missions was prompted by “an awful Internet video that we had nothing to do with.” The president met privately with family members of the fallen before stepping into a cavernous hangar at this base he knows well, home to Air Force One. Emerging from a C-17 cargo plane, six Marines each carried the cases on top of stands before four waiting hearses, as a color guard led the somber procession. When the funeral hymn stopped, a deep silence took over, interrupted only by the quiet steps of the Marines. Clinton and Obama both spoke of how the four men lived their lives — and how their mission would go on. “This work, and the men and women who risk their lives to do it, are at the heart of what makes

Carry teams move flag draped transfer cases of the remains of the four Americans killed this week in Benghazi, Libya, from a transport plane during the Transfer of Remains Ceremony on Friday at Andrews Air Force Base. America great and good,” Clinton said. “So we will wipe away our tears, stiffen our spines, and face the future undaunted.” Said Obama: “The United
States of America will never retreat from the world. We will never stop working for the dignity and freedom that every person deserves.”
“The people Egypt, Libya, Yemen and Tunisia did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of the mob,” Secretary Clinton said.
California considers driver’s license privileges for illegal immigrants BY GOSIA WOZNIACKA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FRESNO, Calif. — When 17-year-old Alondra Esquivel needs to get from her rural central California home to classes at Fresno State University 20 miles away, she must rely on rides from her relatives or her boyfriend. Most Californians her age can drive. But Esquivel, a college freshman, was brought illegally to the United States from Mexico when she was 7. And California has denied driving privileges to immigrants lacking legal status since 1993.
“Without a license ... I have to depend on others to do the basic things,” said Esquivel, who lives in rural Parlier, Calif., has classes at the college four times a week in Fresno. “It’s a big inconvenience.” But Esquivel soon could get driving privileges: She is one of an estimated million eligible for a new federal program that temporarily defers deportation and grants work permits to people who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children. California has the largest number of potential applicants. The new immigration policy has brought to the forefront the
long-running and bitter debate over whether illegal immigrants should have access to driver’s licenses. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said that each state could determine whether to issue licenses or extend other benefits to young immigrants who qualify for the deferred status. Some states, such as Oregon and Georgia, have announced that they will grant driving privileges to those eligible for the new program. Others, such as Arizona and Mississippi, have vowed to deny them. California legislators this month approved a bill that would
allow an estimated 450,000 eligible young immigrants in the state to use the federal work permits at the Department of Motor Vehicles as proof of lawful presence in the country. The bill is now headed to the governor. For young people like Esquivel, foreign-born but steeped in America’s language and lifestyles, the single administrative policy at the federal level, coupled with a state decision, could spell a life-changing moment — transforming school and work opportunities, daily nuisances and even social lives.
In California, where the automobile is king and car-culture dominates, the change could be most profound. Nearly inaccessible without a car, the state is famous for its freeways, streets lacking sidewalks and spotty or nonexistent public transportation. Driving is more than a practical necessity for Californians: it’s a birthright. Illegal immigrants in California who can’t drive face a long series of daily inconveniences and calculated risks. Some drive without a license, unable to fi nd another way to get to work or school. Others depend on family,

friends and co-workers for rides. It’s especially hard on young people like Esquivel, who was raised in the U.S., but has had to miss out on the quintessential American rite of passage. She got top grades at Parlier High School, earning a merit scholarship to attend college, and plans to become an elementary school teacher. But at an age when getting behind the wheel seems pivotal, Esquivel can’t drive to the mall or to see her friends, not to mention to school or work. “Sometimes I feel like going out, but I can’t really do that,” she said.

Students, residents should have better access to Champaign, Urbana legal codes
C
an you still get a DUI if you’re under the 0.08 limit? What happens if you get caught with a small amount of marijuana on campus? What if you’re underage and not drinking at a bar, but within arm’s reach of a drink? Is it legal to sell cups at a house party? Except for the 90-minute ACE IT program students take as freshmen, little information is readily available about drinking and drugs in Champaign-Urbana — or what an arrest or conviction could mean for your future. University Student Legal Services may provide some information, but it’s usually not enough. Ignorance is no excuse for breaking the law, but it should be easier for residents to get information about what exactly is illegal. Differences between Urbana and Champaign legal codes should also be more readily available. The best way to spread this information would be to clearly display it on the Champaign, Urbana and University police departments websites. Perhaps a 20-year-old wants to go to a bar and make sure he doesn’t break the law. Or maybe, someone wants to throw a party and needs to look up local noise ordinances. It can take almost an hour trying to dig through the proper city codes, forum posts about local laws, and old Daily Illini articles to figure out the exact law. Because the information can be difficult to find, students may be more prone to looking up and understanding laws they might break after they have done it. Rather, more readily available information would lead students to follow laws and procedures if they and their consequences were expressly enumerated in an easy-to-search-and-use information base. The University could also explain more clearly what a conviction could mean to your future enrollment. For example, according to the University Office of Student Financial Aid, a drug-related conviction could result in the loss of federal financial aid. The Division of Public Safety states: “Students who illegally possess, use, distribute, sell, or manufacture drugs are subject to University disciplinary action and may be dismissed from the University. The standard disciplinary response to students who are found to be distributing illegal drugs is dismissal for not less than two years.” But the University and local police departments have not been alone in this failure to make the information available to students. The Daily Illini could help to inform readers about the consequences of legal violations, important to them and their future choices. For the record: You can get a DUI under the 0.08 limit if your driving is impaired. Possession of a small amount of marijuana will result in a fine in Urbana, and it could affect your financial aid. If you’re underage and within arm’s reach of a drink, you could get a citation. And selling cups at a house party is illegal.

es promote stoning to death in the cases of adultery, not being a virgin when married and disobeying one’s parents. Take Deuteronomy 22:13-21: “If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her ... and found her not a maid ... then the men of the city shall stone her with stones that she die.” Also, the Leviticus 11:10 forbids the consumption of shellfish, yet that is largely ignored today. Red Lobster, anyone? If verses like these can be ignored, why can’t those ancient ones about homosexuality be laid to rest as well? Why can’t people simply deal with the fact that some dudes love dudes, and some chicks love chicks and all that fall in between? And maybe most importantly, why can’t we all try to understand that LGBT people struggle with themselves, and they need our support? And no, they do not need someone taking the “love the sinner, hate the sin” approach — what they do need is our full-on approval. Every member of the LGBT community comes to terms with religion and their sexual identity differently. Some will leave religion, others will stick with it but still think what they are doing is wrong. And others will find, in their own way, a way to make peace with themselves and religion. We need to be as supportive as we can to make this latter realization more common, so that more LGBT people can live their lives in inner-peace.
hy does the topic of race make us so uncomfortable sometimes? Don’t lie: You’ve had an awkward race conversation before in your life. Maybe it’s when you realized you were the only minority (or majority) in your class. Maybe it’s when you had to explain to your friends why “Oreo” is not the correct term to describe you. Race is a beautiful thing, but sometimes, we can get all weird about it. For example, there’s a campaign going around in 25 U.S. cities called the Un-Fair Campaign. Sponsored by the University of Minnesota in Duluth, the campaign wants to get people thinking about white privilege and facilitate social justice dialogue. Phrases such as “we’re lucky that people see US, not a color” and “I can come to my meeting late and not have my lateness attributed to race” cover the Un-Fair Campaign posters. Looking at the campaign’s marketing strategy, I stand by this: Making one group of people feel ultimately guilty should never be the way to get them to talk about minority or majority status. I’d like to think the appropriate attitude should be “stop feeling guilty; start dealing with issues.” Also, it’s generalizing — not all white people are racism-blind. “When I looked at the website, it made me nervous,” said Robyn Deterding, instructor of the “Intergroup Dialogue: Being White in a Multiracial Society” class and director of Campus Recreation, “because we have to guide people into dialogue.” Agreed: You can’t cure racism with white guilt marketing. However, just because the marketing premise may be flawed, does not mean Un-Fair is wrong. It’s gusty. It’s controversial. And Deterding and I are both glad the discussion is happening. “People don’t want to step out of their comfort zone,” she said. “They see it as a negative. But we need to get out of the ‘I don’t want to offend’ mode.” We need to “just do it.” “It” being engaging in uncomfortable dialogue. What does this campaign have to do with C-U? After all, our campus has about 47 percent students who self-report as part of an ethnicity or race other than Caucasian, according to the most recent Division of Management Information Student Enrollment Reports, a far cry away from the 10 percent in Duluth, Minn. These posters aren’t going up around our town, because, well, clearly we don’t need it. We’re already educated in race and minority status, right? Erm, no. Not really. We still can do better. Case in point: I’ve had several people tell me that they “don’t see race.” No. No, no, no. The thought is very sweet, but the premise is all wrong. We need to see race. We need to recognize the differences between us, because not recognizing the differences devalues who we are. One of the ways we can dive right in is take classes that teach us about race and racism, like an Intergroup Dialogue class. In fact, I’m surprised that the University is just now inviting diversity classes for freshmen in I-Connect Diversity and Inclusion courses, which encourage students to engage in the diversity around them. It’s a topic everyone, regardless of race, needs to learn. Still, I want to challenge the University classes to dig even deeper. Don’t just give us a class for eight weeks and send us on our way. Deterding pointed out that it may take up to six weeks “for a breakthrough.” So why not offer another eight week course to figure out how to apply what we’ve learned to our day-today lives? Or just make it a full semester? Our classes ask us to confront issues we aren’t comfortable with, but that’s what it takes to get people thinking about social issues like racism. Sure, the UnFair Campaign does it in an inappropriate way, but they get people talking — wrestling with the issues. It’s offensive, and they push agenda fueled by guilt. But, at the very least, they are brave enough to start the conversation.

Democrats’ education platform is superior JOSEPH VANDEHEY Opinions columnist
W
ith so many political advertisements snatching at each spare bit of attention we have, many smaller, but still important topics, can be lost in the fray. So this week, I sat down to read the party platforms of the Republicans and the Democrats to see how both talk about one topic close to our own lives: education. First impressions were not good. Party platforms are fluff pieces, little more than exercises in rhetoric, so I found, to no surprise, the Democrats defending Mr. Obama’s record at every — and I do mean every — turn and the Republicans mentioning consumer rights and school choice with the fervency of a free-market spiritualist. Once past the partisan red meat, both platforms contained many of the same ideas, although neither party is likely to admit that. Both parties, for instance, voiced support for community colleges. That earned a little cheer from me, actually. Traditional four-year universities will continue to provide the bedrock of higher education, but a variety of options need to exist for a variety of students — especially adults looking for a change in their lives and those without the finances or time to pursue a standard four-year degree. However, as we have seen with for-profit colleges preying on veterans, maintaining quality in educational options, not just having options, remains one of the biggest problems, and neither platform offered any ideas of how to do that. This pattern, of voicing support
for a general concept without providing any amount of details, occurred again and again. Both platforms gave a parade of educational reform buzzwords, such as “charter schools” or “merit pay,” without providing even the most basic factual support for the concepts. Take charter schools: they outperform public schools in low-income inner city areas but are equal or worse than public schools on average. Or take merit pay (“rewarding good teachers” in the Democrats’ parlance): Since paying based on performance is not the model most schools use, there is little data on its effectiveness, and what data there is suggests that it has little to no effect on student performance. This lack of subtlety gave me the impression that both parties want to show the public that they recognize the problem and that they have some ideas on how to solve it. But since neither platform dealt with the realities of these issues, I came away feeling that neither party would be successful in solving these problems in the short term. This is not to say that Democrats and Republicans agreed on all things; both devoted time to discussing the problem of student debt, and while both recognized it as an important issue, they were on polar opposites of how to deal with it. Democrats want to “[remove] the banks acting as middlemen,” while Republicans want to get the government out of the loan business altogether and focus on private investment. This particular difference, however, is superficial. To many students, where their loans come from is not nearly as important as being able to pay back the loans without being
crushed under interest rates. (Here, I do have to give some credit to Democrats for discussing efforts to keep interest rates low, which the Republican platform did not.) Some more curious differences attracted my attention: Democrats frequently discussed teaching itself as a job — “a good middle-class job” — and insulating teachers from layoffs due to the slow economy. Republican discussion on the job of teaching, on the other hand, was restricted to protecting teachers from “frivolous lawsuits” and using merit pay to attract new teachers to the profession. Democrats touted their efforts to support institutions that serve minorities. Republicans, on the other hand, focused more on students who are disabled. Then there were things that were absent form both platforms: While both focused on the importance of parents in their children’s education — Republicans moreso — neither proposed any ideas for increasing parental involvement or assisting students who lack said involvement. The recent lightning-rod of the teaching of creationism also went missing from both. The ultimate question, of course, is which platform convinced me as a reader that their party knows best how to deal with education. In platforms high on fluff and unsubstantiated rhetoric, I focused on which party convinced me that they would (eventually) find the right solution. Democrats said they would “listen to (teachers)” to find solutions. Republicans did not and even came off as vaguely antagonistic to teachers. Point — one small, but important point — to the Democrats.

LGBT community needs support to feel more at peace with sexuality, religion KIRSTEN KELLER Opinions columnist
R
eligion is seen as incongruent and incompatible with the sexual preferences of the LGBT community by much of the population of the United States and the world. In this year’s election cycle, LGBT rights are at the forefront of discussion. Many are quick to point out that the Bible sanctions marriage between a man and a woman, and this is how it should be. Many believe that anything but heterosexuality is a choice and that LGBT people need to realign their beliefs in God and his ways. Yet little attention is given to the fact that many LGBT people are very religious, and they struggle to find a way that they can feel right with themselves religiously in a very Christian society, and right in the eyes of God. I recently sat down to speak with Harrison Hakes, president of the registered student organization, Building Bridges, and senior in FAA. Building Bridges is an organization that brings together people of the LGBT community, including those who identify as queer or an ally, to talk about issues that appear both in the Christian world and the LGBT community. They also aim to build a bridge of understanding between groups that have opposing viewpoints. We discussed the concerns that LGBT people deal with,
and how they justify themselves with religion. “A big issue is growing up and hearing from various sources that you’re going to Hell because of who you are and then coming to terms with if you believe that or not, and whether what you’re doing is a sin or not,” Hakes said. But if an LGBT person believes that they are not committing a sin, then the question arises: Is the Bible void? Many LGBT people have grown up in a spiritual community and do not want to let a few verses of the Bible negate their beliefs. Yet many people have trouble understanding that LGBT people can be religious too. I have a good friend that is gay and also very Catholic. He loves his church, yet he struggles with the ideas it preaches. Every day he scours the Bible, looking to gain a greater understanding of what it says is, and is not, right. He reads blogs of other LGBT people, learning how they are living their lives. He has a true love for God and is one of the best people I know. Yet, he is not living at peace with himself. The majority of his struggle is caused by those verses of the Bible that forbid homosexuality, such as Leviticus 20:13: “If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable.” While we could argue about the meanings of these verses for ages, I would like to point out that other verses in the Bible that condemn certain behaviors have since been “nullified.” For example, many vers-

Chicago teachers ‘feel rushed’ by contract offer, remain on strike BY TAMMY WEBBER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Chicago teachers uncomfortable with a tentative contract offer decided Sunday to remain on strike, insisting they needed more time to consider whether to end an acrimonious standoff with Mayor Rahm Emanuel that will keep 350,000 students out of class for at least a few more days. Emanuel fired back Sunday night by instructing city attorneys to seek a court order forcing Chicago Teachers Union members back into the classroom. “This was a strike of choice
and is now a delay of choice that is wrong for our children,” he said in a statement. Meeting a week after beginning the city’s first teachers strike in 25 years, the union’s 800-member House of Delegates didn’t hold a planned formal vote on whether to suspend the strike. They had received a summary of a proposed settlement worked out over the weekend with officials from the nation’s third largest school district. Presented with a choice on whether to end talks that union president Karen Lewis had at one point called “a fight for the
very soul of public education,” the union’s members told their leaders they “feel rushed.” She said they wanted more time to talk about a contract that would base teacher evaluations in part on how well students succeed and whether laid-off teachers would have first chance at open jobs in the district. The union will meet again Tuesday, after the end of the Rosh Hashana, the Jewish new year. “I don’t like being on strike. Nobody in my school likes being on strike, but we understand the reason. It’s not an easy process,” said Michael Bochner, a teacher at Cesar Chavez Elementary.

HANEGEV JUNCTION, Israel — The Israeli military has begun construction of its largest training base ever. It has started by moving operations from some of the country’s priciest real estate to the barren sands of southern Israel in attempt to realize the longtime dream of making the desert bloom. The $650 million construction project is the military’s biggest in three decades: Beginning in late 2014, 10,000 soldiers will be moved into the new base 30 kilometers (20 miles) south of the city of Beersheba from their current quarters in the country’s Tel Aviv-area heartland.
The program is designed to streamline combat support training, now carried out at multiple facilities, by funneling it into a single site. But critics question whether it will jumpstart the economy of the Negev region as officials promise. They also note the project doesn’t even discuss benefits for Arab Bedouin who account for a third of the 500,000 Israelis living in the area. Not since Israel pulled up its bases from Egypt’s Sinai desert in the early 1980s under the two countries’ landmark peace treaty has the military carried out a project of this scope, in terms of cost, number of soldiers involved and sheer physi-
cal size, said project director Lt. Col. Shalom Alfassy. Today, only a few spare buildings stand on the 625 acres (250 hectares) earmarked for the site. But within two years, 2.7 million square feet (250,800 square meters) of construction is supposed to go up, including barracks, hundreds of computerized classrooms, simulation sites and fi ring ranges. The base will not train combat soldiers, but drivers, paramedics and other troops who would support them at the front. It will not draw operations from the main military headquarters and Defense Ministry in the heart of Tel Aviv.

Illinois’ Reilly O’Toole (4) looks for a pass during the game against Charleston Southern at Memorial Stadium on Saturday. O’Toole’s completion percentage of .839 from the 44-0 victory set a school record.
O’Toole sets school record as Illini secure easy victory over Buccaneers BY JAMAL COLLIER STAFF WRITER
When Illinois quarterback Reilly O’Toole learned that his completion percentage of .839 from Saturday’s 44-0 victory over Charleston Southern set a school record, he simply shrugged it off and replied nonchalantly, “That’s cool.” He deflected the credit anywhere but himself: his receivers for get-
ting open, his line for blocking well, his coaches for their game plan. But his second career start was completely different from a disastrous first attempt against Arizona State. O’Toole had a career day in front of 45,369 fans at Memorial Stadium. He went 26-for-31 for the programbest completion percentage, throwing for 333 yards and five touchdowns to become the first Illinois quarterback
since Juice Williams in 2008 with five touchdowns. Head coach Tim Beckman correctly predicted that O’Toole would give the credit to everyone else, but the sophomore looked much more comfortable in the pocket as he filled in for injured quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase, who missed his second straight game with an ankle injury. And Illinois struggled rushing the ball, with

arrival, but the quarterback could barely get in the door before the entire media ransacked him. The instant flashes of the multiple video cameras seemed to overwhelm O’Toole as he grimaced through what seemed to be a period of temporary blindness. As he has with all the questions he’s taken, mostly about subjects that aren’t the most enlightening, he squinted with a smile on his face to fi nally assess a positive performance in his young career. “When you have guys running great routes and they’re open, it

makes the game a lot more fun because you’re just pitching and catching,” he said. Pitching and catching may be the best way to put it, as he completed 26-of-31 throws for an Illinois single-game completion record of 83.9 percent, something he didn’t even know he did but calmly said was “cool.” He didn’t mention it much, but he had to think it was similarly as cool to have wide receivers Ryan Lankford and Justin Hardee grab 196 yards receiving. When Nathan Scheelhaase went
Throughout the first three weeks of the season, the struggling Illinois volleyball team preached patience and confidence in turning things around. That patience finally paid off in a big way last weekend, as the Illini (6-4) broke through with three victories at the Texas Invitational, including a five-set win against No. 6 Texas (8-3) on Friday that kicked off the weekend festivities. Illinois followed that win by demolishing Central Florida (3-9) in three sets Saturday morning before closing out the tournament with a tight four-set win over a feisty Cincinnati (3-10) squad. “We really came together for the first time and just kinda figured out how to work as a team rather than just individuals on the court, which was really cool,” sophomore Anna Dorn said. “We played as a cohesive unit for the first time all year,” head coach Hambly added. “It was kind of fun to see essentially what we wanted ... (to look) like at the beginning of the year start coming to fruition.” Leading up to the tournament, the Illini spoke repeatedly about the importance of communication to having success on the court, tabbing it as the most important factor they were working on. Illinois’ efforts on that front were immediately put to the test when it walked into a hostile environment at Gregory Gym on Friday night in its first match against a top-10 opponent this season. The adversity was further ratcheted up when Illinois dropped the first set 25-18. But the Illini’s week-long work finally paid off as they pulled together to take the second and third sets, 25-21. Texas battled back to win the fourth set 25-19 and forced a decisive fifth set, in which Illinois was 0-2 on the season. The final set was hotly contested, with the lead changing hands four times and nine ties. With Illinois leading 13-12, middle blocker Erin Johnson came up with a solo block to claim a two-point advantage, and the Illini held on to win 15-13. “That block, she made a great move,” Hambly said. “She got her left hand over and reached into the angle, took a shot away from the kid. It was a big time block in a big moment.” Johnson added eight block assists to that key block. Sophomore right side hitter Liz McMahon tied a career high with 11 block assists, and Dorn chipped in seven of her own as Illinois outblocked the Longhorns 16.5-12.5. Dorn also contributed a fantastic performance on offense with 12 kills, no errors and an incredible .706 hitting percentage. Outside hitter Jocelynn Birks led Illinois’ attack with 21 kills while also picking up 12 digs in the first double-double of her career. But both Birks and Dorn shrugged the credit for their success onto another Illini. “All of my success is contributed to (redshirt senior) Annie Luhrsen because she was putting really good sets up, and I was able to hit down and putting me in really good positions to get points,” Dorn said. “Me and Annie just had a really good connection,” Birks added. “I think we finally found the set that we want, or the set that I want from her.” Luhrsen deflected that praise right back to her teammates, crediting her success to “spot on” passing that put her in good situations and hitters that were “pounding away at the ball.” “Anna is playing phenomenal volleyball,” Luhrsen said. “Texas has great athletes on their team, and she was hitting over them and through them

Simeon’s No. 2 Nunn commits to Illinois after weekend visit
Illinois beats Iowa in 2nd multigoal victory of 2012 BY GINA MUELLER STAFF WRITER
It was deja vu for Illinois, heading into its first conference match against an undefeated Iowa team again this year. Last season, the Illini traveled to Iowa City to rally from a two-goal deficit and give Iowa its first tie of the season. This year, the Hawkeyes traveled to the Illinois Soccer Stadium with another undefeated nonconference record of 9-0-0. This time, the Illini came away with a 2-1 victory. “I know we went to Iowa last year and got a tie out of it,” Illinois head coach Janet Rayfield said. “It sort of left a sour taste in our mouth to start off that way. We’re excited to started off with a win.” Everything seemed to come together for the Illini, with Rayfield and junior midfielder Vanessa DiBernardo’s partaking in their first game of the season since returning from the U.S. Under-20 Women’s World Cup in Japan. DiBernardo wasted no time getting adjusted to her collegiate team, scoring a goal in the first three minutes of the game. Recognizing a gap in Iowa’s defense, she struck the ball into the back of the net to tally the first goal for Illinois and DiBernardo’s first of the 2012 season. Illinois recorded its most shots in a single match so far this season, tallying 28. Of those 28 shots, DiBernardo was responsible for 11.
“They were giving me a lot of time at the top of the box,” DiBernardo said. “I was looking for shots, and I need to get those shots more on frame, but there were some good opportunities, and I think I should put more away than I did.” Freshman Nicole Breece tallied the game-winning goal toward the end of the first half. The Illini were awarded the ball on the sideline, allowing junior Megan Pawloski to use her flip-throwin to aid the attack. Her throw launched the ball high into the air in the middle of the 18-yard box, where Breece flicked the ball with her head into the back of the net. Breece is also capable of a flipthrow-in and isn’t used to being the one on the receiving end. “It’s different to be on the other side of it,” Breece said. “I’m usually the one throwing it, but I know what I am usually trying to get them to do, so I knew myself that I needed to get my head on the ball and try and put it away.” In the second half, the Illini maintained possession over the Hawkeyes and held the score 2-1. Most of the action occurred on Iowa’s defensive half, with Illinois creating chances but having no luck on a third goal. This was the second multigoal win of the season for Illinois, its first a 3-1 victory against UW-Milwaukee on Labor Day. Illinois will continue Big Ten competition with two home games

When John Groce was named the new men’s basketball coach at Illinois in March, a vocal opposition decried the hire, claiming that he lacked recruiting ties in the talent hotbed of Chicago. Fast forward five months, and Groce has taken a step toward proving the naysayers wrong. Simeon Career Academy shooting guard Kendrick Nunn made a verbal commitment to Illinois on Saturday during his official visit to the school, becoming Groce’s fi rst recruit from Chicago. Rivals.com ranks Nunn as the No. 42 prospect in the nation from the 2013 recruiting class. The four-star recruit joins guard Malcolm Hill and center Maverick Morgan in Illinois’ 2013 recruiting class. Nunn’s commitment provides a necessary facelift for Illinois’ image in Chicago recruiting. Former head coach Bruce Weber came under heavy criticism for missing on top prospects like Derrick Rose and Anthony Davis, and the program took another hit this summer when phenom Jabari Parker — Nunn’s teammate at Simeon — did not list Illinois in his top 10 potential schools. Beyond the recruiting ramifications, Nunn also fits into Groce’s highBRENTON TSE THE DAILY ILLINI

ILLINI LEAVE BUCS IN DUST
BY SEAN HAMMOND STAFF WRITER
For Charleston Southern, the outcome of Saturday’s football game with Illinois didn’t matter. The Bucs wanted to win the game, of course, but in the grand scheme of things, the 44-0 loss did them more good than harm. According to ESPN business analyst Darren Rovell, Illinois paid Charleston Southern $400,000 to play at Memorial Stadium, and that price tag is modest compared with what other FCS schools are paid to play college football powerhouses. The game was what is considered in the college sports world as a “guarantee game.” Guaranteed money for the little school, guaranteed win for the big school. While the second part of that agreement isn’t always certain, it’s usually the case. The Buccaneers were essentially paid to play in front of 45,000 people and get pounded by a team that is bigger, faster and stronger. These “guarantee games” are common practice in college sports, and despite Illinois’ beatdown of the Bucs, Charleston Southern head coach Jay Mills believes they are absolutely necessary. “I heard Lou Holtz and Mark Mays debate about FCS and FBS schools competing last week on College Football Final, and I couldn’t agree with Coach Holtz more,” he said. “The financial resources that are so important and sometimes so abounding at the FBS level are not at the levels below. There’s not only a trickledown when FBS schools give FCS schools an opportunity such as Illinois gave us today, but we give opportunities for smaller schools to play us, which gives them money that trickles down.” Charleston Southern has played at Florida State, Florida and Miami. It has never beaten an FBS opponent. The CSU athletic department used money from these games to build a new athletic facility it otherwise couldn’t have afforded. For the first time in school history, every team — male and female — has its own locker room. Guarantee games happen every year, usually early in the season. Arkansas paid Louisiana-Monroe $950,000 in a game that proved not to be such a guaranteed outcome.
Louisiana-Monroe won 34-31 in overtime Sept. 8, and one week later, it was paid over $1 million to play at Auburn, which the Warhawks almost won in overtime as well. Oklahoma State paid Savannah State $860,000 to play in Stillwater, Okla., which is about 17 percent of Savannah State’s athletic budget, according The New York Times. The most famous example was Appalachian State’s upset of No. 5-ranked Michigan in 2006, when the Mountaineers were paid $400,000 for their victory in The Big House. In addition to money, Charleston Southern players got an experience they otherwise wouldn’t have against FCS opponents. One week ago, the Bucs were hosting Jacksonville in front of 2,136 fans. Saturday they found themselves surrounded by 45,369 orangeclad fans. “For me, I’ve gotten used to it because I’ve played in big games when we played Florida in front of 95,000 and Florida State last year and UCF (Central Florida),” Charleston Southern cornerback Charles James said. “But it is something you have to get used to, jumping from 3,000 to 50,000 is a big jump.” James is one of few Charleston Southern players with a legitimate chance of playing in the NFL. For him, playing against FBS schools gives him a chance to show what he can do against the highest level of competition. Mills is concerned that when the FBS adopts its new playoff system in 2014, the number of games scheduled against FCS schools will decrease. Once the playoff is implemented and strength of schedule begins to play a roll in the playoff selection process, FBS teams will be less inclined to schedule FCS opponents. He fears that the trickle down of money will disappear, hurting smaller schools. “When Illinois and FBS schools play these games, it helps every single college football program in the country at every level,” Mills said. “That’s the basics of it that few people understand.”

Injuries stacking up for Illinois football
Buccaneers: FBS games help pay bills, get experience
BY CHAD THORNBURG STAFF WRITER
When asked to assess his team after Saturday’s victory, Tim Beckman’s response was simple. “Not healthy,” the Illinois football coach said. Six starters were held out of Saturday’s game against Charleston Southern with injury: quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase, center Graham Pocic, running back Josh Ferguson , linebacker Houston Bates and safeties Steve Hull and Supo Sanni . Sophomore kicker Nick Immekus left the game with a muscle pull, and wide receiver Darius Millines, who injured his ankle last week, played sparingly and was wearing a sling on his left shoulder on the sideline. “Guys are getting hurt right and left,” junior defensive tackle Akeem Spence said. “It’s football, so guys are going to get nicked here and there. They’ve just got to get in the training room, get treatment and bounce back.” While it’s likely several players held out would have played had the opponent been different — Charleston Southern hasn’t won a game since November 2010 — the Illini injuries are still stacking up. “I haven’t slept at all,” Beckman said. “You look out there, and you see that you’ve got young men that are injured. They don’t want to be injured; I mean nobody wants to be injured. It’s just one of those things that you have to adapt to, and you have to push your young players to perform.” Despite the crowded training room, the Illini cruised to a 44-0 victory over the FCS opponent , and several young backups had an opportunity to stand out. Ten Illini played the fi rst game of their collegiate careers, and several freshmen had breakout games, including wide receiver Justin Hardee, who caught five passes for 98 yards; running back Dami Ayoola, who rushed for 55 yards and his fi rst touchdown; and linebacker Mason Monheim, who recorded his fi rst career

interception. Freshmen players are not available to the media until the start of the Big Ten season. “Obviously you can depend on the seniors, but only for so long,” defensive coordinator Tim Banks said. “We have to make sure we have guys that can help us in the future and that future might be this year.” Depth has been a concern of the coaching staff’s since the spring, and the Illini have been looking for younger players to step up and alleviate those concerns. The Illini two-deep depth chart is littered with youth with 23 freshmen and sophomores. “We’re gonna recruit players who are gonna come in and play and not sit and watch,” Beckman said. “That’s just what we do, we’re gonna play a lot of players.” It remains to be seen how much the fresh faces will be seen down the stretch, particularly against tougher competition, but co-offensive coordinator Chris Beatty said they would have still been in the mix had this weekend’s game been a Big Ten matchup. “They need to,” Beatty said. “That’s part of developing a program. I talk to our guys about being a program and not just a team. Teams are good every third or fourth year when they have an older group. We want to be that team that reloads every year. And a way to develop depth is to be able to play those guys.” Scheelhaase said he expected to play against Charleston Southern, so he should be ready to go next weekend, and it’s likely that a few others return from injury against a highercaliber opponent in Louisiana Tech. “We get treatment every day, guys coming in doing what they need to do to get better and getting their bodies back in order,” junior wide receiver Ryan Lankford said. “By game time, we should be up and rolling again.”

The early morning match didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t faze the Illini, however, as they polished off the Knights (3-9) 25-17, 25-15, 25-12 in a match that lasted just over an hour.

quarterbacks struggled to keep the offense running with their starter out, Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole shuffled into the playerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lounge in his usual nonchalant manner and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t command much attention from the media. What a difference two weeks make. The Illini are without a No. 1 wide receiver, but Lankford and Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole had good chemistry in Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s victory. The way things are going with this banged up Illinois team, that could be the connection to keep an eye on as the season progresses. As is his policy, head coach Tim Beckman didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reveal any information regarding next weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starter. Once Camp Rantoul was over, the coaches only spoke of Scheelhaase as a starter, but Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole is making the most of his opportunity to keep the quarterback conversation alive. More importantly, the offense will have another opportunity to step up to keep pace with Louisiana Techâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high-flying offense, which is coming off consecutive 56-point showings.

FOOTBALL
they returned home. Birks, Dorn and Johnson were named to the all-tournament team, and Birks earned the tournamentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s MVP award after recording three double-doubles and blasting 60 kills on the weekend. Dorn hit .622 over the weekend with 29 kills and one error. She assisted on 17 blocks and recorded one solo block. The improved play proved something Hambly has said since the beginning of the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a confidence booster for us,â&#x20AC;? Luhrsen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know we have it in us to beat anyone in the country this year.â&#x20AC;?
FROM PAGE 1B the potential to have a game like he did today,â&#x20AC;? defensive end Michael Buchanan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was great to see him go out there and kind of get our passing game going.â&#x20AC;? Co-offensive coordinator Chris Beatty repeatedly tells his team to prepare every week like it is playing the Super Bowl champion New York Giants, and all week long Beckman claimed he would treat winless FCS opponent Charleston Southern like any other team on the schedule. However, Beckman elected to sit many of his regulars: Illinois played without Scheelhaase (leg), offensive lineman Graham Pocic (leg), running back Josh Ferguson (concussion), linebacker Houston Bates and defensive backs Supo Sanni and Steve Hull. Wide receiver Darius Millines did start the game despite an ankle injury but finished with only one reception for 3 yards. He injured his left arm during the game and stood on the sideline in a sling during the second half. The coaches reiterated that the opponent had nothing to do with the decision to sit players or not due to injury, though Beckman did say he thinks Pocic will be back next week. But the Illini didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need those players for this game, especially with the defense pitching its first shutout since 2007 and its largest margin of victory in a shutout since 1965. Buchanan said the defense had been talking about that shutout all week after a near miss against Western Michigan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which Illinois allowed seven points to â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the miscommunication issues at Arizona State. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was huge,â&#x20AC;? Beckman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a lot of pride that was hurt (after last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 45-14 loss at Arizona State), there was no question about it, from the coaching

SOCCER FROM PAGE 1B next weekend against Ohio State and Penn State. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think if you look at the Big Ten over the last 10 years even that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been here, every win in the Big Ten really matters,â&#x20AC;? Rayfield said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was an Iowa team that came in extremely confident, 9-0, who hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t given up a lot of goals and were scoring a lot of goals. I think this is a really huge win for us. It was a great win for our confidence and certainly just to start the season. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited to start off with a win and now we need to focus on Ohio State coming in on Friday, trying to get a second win.â&#x20AC;?

NUNN FROM PAGE 1B octane system that stresses transition offense and tenacious defense. Nunn chose Illinois over marquee Midwest programs like Memphis, Marquette and Ohio State. Previously, Nunn verbally committed to Texas A&M but decided to reopen his recruitment last September. He spent the weekend at Illinois and attended the football game against Charleston Southern on Saturday. Before leaving Champaign-Urbana, Nunn confirmed his commitment, tweeting: â&#x20AC;&#x153;@JohnGroce I Need That ScholarShip..My State. My School #KendricksKingdom.â&#x20AC;?

staff down to the players.â&#x20AC;? It was clear Charleston Southern was overmatched from the start of the game. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole completed his first 10 passes, and, on Charleston Southernâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first drive, Buccaneers quarterback Derek Hatcher threw an interception to freshman linebacker Marcus Monheim, the first of Monheimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career. The Illini defense held Charleston Southern to just 125 yards on the day. Illinois led the game 20-0 at the half. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A winâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a win,â&#x20AC;? Beckman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You only have 12 opportunities. ... Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to cherish every opportunity. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to cherish every win.â&#x20AC;? It remains to be seen if Illinois can complete the same showing against an FBS opponent, but the Illini were able to get younger, less experienced players valuable playing time during the game. Ten Illini received in-game action for the first time in their college careers, and two, Monheim and offensive lineman Jake Feldmeyer, made their first career starts. Freshman wide receiver Justin Hardee posted a career high of five catches for 99 yards, freshman running back Dami Ayoola rushed for his first career touchdown in the second quarter and led the Illini in rushing, sophomore Ralph Cooper tied for the team lead in tackles on the day and kicker Taylor Zalewski scored for the first time in his career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what this programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gonna need and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always gonna be,â&#x20AC;? Beckman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about a bunch of young players coming in and playing. We do not have a bunch of depth. If you look at our two-deep, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 23 freshmen and sophomores on the twodeep. We are not a very veteran-laden team other than a couple senior starters.â&#x20AC;?
