Simon speaks out against texting while driving

ISS historian Guo complies 1st codex for public use since 1965 BY CORINNE RUFF STAFF WRITER

CHONG JIANG THE DAILY ILLINI

Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon speaks to students at Parkland College on the dangers of texting while driving, as part of national “No Text on Board” pledge day Wednesday. Simon compared the growing number of fatalities due to distracted driving with that of drunken driving, and emphasized the need for increased public awareness of the problem, encouraging drivers to take the pledge at ItCanWait.com to never text while driving. The Illinois law prohibiting texting while driving was passed in 2009. Gov. Pat Quinn also gave a speech on the subject in Chicago on Wednesday.

Students visit an education station in Lincoln Hall during Inclusive Illinois Day on Wednesday. The stations were set up to inform students about the benefits of diversity.

It was in the Orchard Downs student archives that Shao Guo discovered and dusted off the 1965 student government legislation code. This code was the last complete document to detail the history of an academic year in student government at the University — until now. Upon fi nding this information, Guo, ISS historian and vice president-internal, was inspired to compile a codex. “Sometimes there are complaints against ISS, (which say) that it does nothing,” Guo said. “However, that’s simply not true. They may not have the information off the top of their head, but this codex will help senators tell the student body exactly what they did in the past year.” Guo said fi nding the information wasn’t too difficult because ISS prides itself on efficiently keeping records of meetings. He

collected the information from recorded meeting minutes, meeting packets and articles written by The Daily Illini. “I read about two thousand articles from The Daily Illini because they have always published information on what was happening in the student government,” he said. Guo spent hours researching, writing and editing the document, but he said he didn’t mind the extra work. “I am passionate about student government and history. I love the ISS, and when you love something, you pursue it,” he said. Guo said his document is based slightly off of the format of the 1965 codex. The new document hosts a table of contents, which categorizes the 132 pages of passed motions, resolutions, bylaw amendments and other issues discussed by the senate.

“It’s a great thing he put together. It’s been years since its been done, and now future classes and assemblies will be able to look back and reference what happened in ISS that year.” JENNY BALDWIN, ISS chief of staff and junior in LAS

CODEX FROM PAGE 1A Jim Maskeri, senator and senior in LAS, said he sponsored the resolution to create the historian position, but Guo has taken on additional responsibilities by documenting the evolution of the student government. “This is very important because senators are only here for a limited time,” Maskeri said. “Looking back, we tend to repeat

THEFT FROM PAGE 1A but could not find the smartphone. Already this year, the number of thefts from Campus Recreation facilities matches the number of reports made in all of 2010. From Jan. 1 to Sept. 19, 39 thefts were reported. But reported thefts appear to be increasing. According to University police detective Robert Murphy, 58 thefts were reported in 2011. “It goes up and down — it fluctuates like everything else,” he said. About 7,000 people visit campus recreation facilities every day, said Erik Riha, assistant director of marketing at Campus Recreation. Riha said not everyone who comes in is trustworthy, so even though the ARC and CRCE have hundreds of cameras within the buildings and plan on educating students on how to secure their valuables, people should still have a watchful

things. It’s important that we can look at our past to make sure we don’t make the same mistakes in the future.” In comparison to other schools in the Big Ten, Guo said other student senates normally don’t have a historian position, although he thinks it is important to the senate. There is no cost associated with creating the codex. The document will also be useful for reference after confusing meetings or when senators wish to review voting numbers, said

Jenny Baldwin, ISS chief of staff and junior in LAS. “It’s a great thing he put together,” she said. “It’s been years since it has been done, and now future classes and assemblies will be able to look back and reference what happened in ISS that year.” Guo said the document will be an essential tool for senators to write better resolutions. He said this version of the codex is now available on the ISS website as a reference for the student body. Guo summarizes the impor-

tance of this new document on the cover page of the codex, which quotes John Milton Gregory, the University’s first president: “No question more concerns the future of American colleges than that of the government of students.” “(Gregory) would have loved to see that we still love the student government today, loved to see us grow up and turn into leaders,” Guo said.

ment but is a daily and collective responsibility. She said students should engage in programs and efforts that enable appreciation for the unique cultures on campus. “These interactions will inevitably expand students’ experiences, cultural competencies and self-awareness,” Abdullah-

Span said. “These experiences ultimately shape students’ identity, their perspective and even their future opportunities.” Wise said there are unlimited opportunities for students on campus to engage in the diversity of the University — from curriculum to registered student organizations.

“I encourage all of our students to move outside of their comfort zones to broaden their experiences and exposure to new ideas, new people and new places as part of their Illinois Experience,” she said.

eye. In one theft case at the ARC, Murphy said one student placed his phone on a bench under a security camera while he played basketball. He thought he would be able to watch it, but his phone was stolen anyway. Murphy said people think they will be able to watch their valuables, but that is not always the case. Although it is not the individual’s fault when theft occurs, that person still needs to take some of that responsibility, Murphy said. “We do have a lot of thefts in the ARC, as well as the other campus recreational facilities,” he said. “The main reason behind this is people do not lock their valuables in the lockers, and when they do lock them up, they use combinations such as 1-1-1-1 or 1-2-3-4.” It’s important to report theft right away, Murphy said. “Report it at the very, very, very least to the people who work

at ARC and CRCE,” Murphy said. “A lot of times, they get turned in to the front desk, and they don’t know whose it is.” He said it is especially hard to find the owner of a smartphone because of lock settings. “If your cellphone is locked, we can’t call anybody on it,” Murphy said. “A lot of the time, you can just push redial and call the last number on the cellphone. But now, everyone is getting a smartphone, and they’re password protected.” He said the police department is trying to collaborate with Apple to find owners of stolen and lost iPhones, but Murphy said students should leave their valuables at home. Murphy also said thefts happen fast, so everyone should report suspicious activity right away. “Don’t just walk away. If you are a good witness for something ... call 911 and report it.” he said.

“We do have a lot of thefts in the ARC, as well as the other campus recreational facilities. The main reason behind this is people do not lock their valuables in the lockers, and when they do lock them up, they use combinations such as 1-1-1-1 or 1-2-3-4.”

China investigates protests around US diplomat’s car BY ALEXA OLESEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIJING — China said Wednesday that it was investigating an incident where about 50 protesters surrounded the car of the U.S. ambassador, tried to block him from entering the embassy compound and ripped the car’s fl ag. Chinese police cleared roadblocks and some Japanese businesses reopened after days of large, sometimes violent protests in many cities over Japan’s recent purchase of islands also claimed by Beijing. In Beijing, the bitterness spilled over from the Japanese Embassy to the nearby U.S. Embassy. U.S. Ambassador Gary Locke told reporters Wednesday that Chinese authorities were “very quick” to move the demonstrators away. Video posted on YouTube showed a small number of protesters throwing small objects at the car before Chinese security forces moved in to break up the crowd. “It was all over in a matter of minutes, and I never felt in any danger,” Locke said. The U.S., a close ally of Japan, has said it is staying out of the dispute over the islands. The incident came amid heightened vigilance for American diplomats following violent attacks on U.S. embassies in Libya, Yemen and Egypt. The

embassy said it has asked China’s government to do everything possible to protect American facilities and personnel. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said the U.S. has registered its concern with China both in Washington and Beijing, and Chinese authorities have expressed regret over the incident. Nuland said the preliminary U.S. assessment was that the car was “a target of opportunity” for protesters who had gathered outside the nearby Japanese Embassy. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei told a regular news briefi ng Wednesday that the incident was “an individual case” but that China was investigating it. The protests over the weekend were triggered by the Japanese government’s decision last week to purchase some disputed East China Sea islands from their private Japanese owners. More demonstrations followed Tuesday, the 81st anniversary of Japan’s invasion of China, an emotional remembrance that further stoked the outrage. Though the anti-Japan demonstrations have wound down, there has been no progress in resolving the territorial dispute bedeviling relations between the two Asian economic powerhouses.

LSU police arrest suspect after bomb threat on campus BY SHEILA V KUMAR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BATON ROUGE, La. — Police have arrested a suspect in the bomb threat that led to the evacuation of the LSU campus earlier this week but don’t believe he is connected to threats made against three other universities recently. LSU Police Capt. Corey Lalonde said officers arrested William Bouvay Jr., 42, of Baton Rouge late Tuesday night after an investigation by multiple law enforcement agencies. Lalonde said Bouvay was not an LSU student and appeared to have no connection to the campus. He did not know what the suspect’s motive might have been. Investigators don’t think Bouvay is connected to threats made last week at college campuses in Texas, North Dakota and Ohio. “We don’t believe at this point that there is any connection to the bomb threats at other universities,” Lalonde said. Lalonde said police tracked Bouvay down after determining the 911 call received Monday

at 10:32 a.m. CDT came from a deactivated cellphone that could only make emergency calls. Lalonde said investigators were able to pinpoint the location of the cell phone on Tuesday and searched homes in the Baton Rouge neighborhood before identifying Bouvay as a suspect. “Upon questioning, he admitted to making the phone call,” Lalonde said, adding that Bouvay has been cooperative. Authorities said he will be charged with communicating false information of a planned bombing. The threat set into motion a massive evacuation of the sprawling campus that sparked traffic jams as thousands left. The caller didn’t specify where on campus bombs might be planted, so bomb-squad offi cers with explosives-sniffi ng dogs were called in to search all buildings. As with the threats made last week at the University of Texas, North Dakota State University and Hiram College, the search failed to turn up explosives. Lalonde said authorities

believe Bouvay is the person who called the East Baton Rouge Parish 911 Center, claiming multiple bombs would detonate on campus within two hours. The university was upbeat before Monday’s threat after LSU rose to No. 2 in The Associated Press college football poll with a win over Idaho on Saturday. Officials believe a majority of the university’s 30,000 students, professors and employees were on campus when the threat was made. Students were allowed to return to dormitories late Monday night and classes resumed on Tuesday. An estimated 6,000 students live on campus. Interim LSU President William Jenkins said he’s pleased at how swiftly a suspect was identified and apprehended, but doesn’t know why Bouvay targeted LSU. “I’m very proud of our resilience, as disruptive and as harmful as this episode was. We’re back at work and once again we’re a productive, thriving university,” he said.

Editorial Despite increasing sexual abuse scandals, Air Force commanders should not be chosen based on gender

C

ol. Deborah Liddick took over as commander of San Antonio’s Lackland Air Force Base in Texas on Friday. Her appointment was in response to recent allegations of a pattern of sexual assault at Lackland, where the Air Force hopes a woman in authority will make female recruits feel safe and more comfortable reporting cases of sexual abuse. Because the majority of rape and sexual assault cases involve women as victims, it is understandable that placing a woman in charge would make people feel at ease. The complex hierarchy of the military is built on centuries of male-dominated command structures. It is naive to think that this history could be affected overnight, but integrating women into command seems like a move in the right direction. It is also important to recognize that it is not only women who suffer from these challenges; several men each year are entangled in military sexual abuse. Lackland and the Air Force are not alone in battling this issue; the most recent data on sexual assault show an increase to 3,192 cases involving military personnel as either victims or perpetrators last year. This does not account for the estimated 86 percent of unreported cases. Given the scope of the problem, appointing one female to a position of authority does little to provide

ADAM HUSKA

a long-term, comprehensive solution. In fact, a woman was in a position of authority during the 2003 sex scandal at the Air Force Academy, when leadership allegedly ignored reported incidents. Even when President Barack Obama in January 2012 signed the National Defense Authorization Act, which provided reforms such as expedited transfer if requested by the victim, mandatory training for military leaders and promising confidentiality and legal assistance to victims, it was but a small step in what is sure to be a long journey toward a permanent solution. Indeed, changing a culture takes time, and the military cannot take lightly its responsibility to respond and reform. That is why appointing a new commanding officer when the previous one allegedly did not fully address sexual assault concerns was an appropriate response — but not solely because she is female. Regardless of gender, race or religious background, the people who command and train our armed forces need to be the very best, which does not mean just being the best in physical training or military intelligence. The military needs leaders who can be trusted to defend not only American citizens and soldiers from foreign enemies, but also its own members from the domestic enemies that hide behind their uniforms.

Election season brings out the blunders in Romney’s words

Even though University officials fluctuate attitude toward college rankings, they still make a difference to admissions

A

round this time of year, high school seniors are beginning to narrow down their choices for higher education and begin the lengthy application process. It is also this time of year that the U.S. News and World Report’s college rankings are published. Last week’s release of the 2013 edition reported that the University had remained nearly stagnant in the ranking game — down one spot from 45 to 46 this year in national rankings and an unchanging No. 13 ranking among public universities. Many of these spots are populated by ties. Nevertheless, the administration’s attitude toward the ranking system seems to be dependent on the ranking: When the University sees a boost in ranking, however small, the attitude seems warm toward the system. Conversely, when the University’s ranking falls, the system is regarded as arbitrary. Campus spokeswoman Robin Kaler told The Daily Illini last week that the ranking among public schools is the focus, while one year ago, Kaler commented on the financial standing of the University as having a role in the No. 45 ranking. In the 2011 edition, the University was ranked at 47, having taken an eight-place tumble from 39 in the 2010 edition. The drop may have been caused by the Category I admissions scandal. After all, the College of Law dropped 12 places in graduate school rankings in April after last fall’s investigation into number manipulation. The University has become complacent with its place among national institutions in the three years since the mid40s have become its home.

Though the administration’s memory seems to be short. The University’s top-10 ranking among public schools was a bragging right for years until it fell from that list in 2010. Coincidentally, this was also when the administration used the harshest language against the ranking system. “The campus doesn’t depend on U.S. News or any other rankings to tell us whether we are serving our students well,” Kaler said in an email in 2010. Compare that with her warm statement about the rankings last week: “(University officials) are happy to see that (U.S. News) recognized the excellence of the University.” We concede that the overall ranking of the University may be meaningless in terms of excellence of specific programs or in terms of diversity, as shown in this year’s international enrollment numbers. Those individual programs and initiatives deserve to be recognized because they add to the richness of the University. However, especially in light of the University’s almost endless stream of rhetoric about upping the excellence of Illinois, we can’t remain comfortable with this stagnation. Regardless of the University’s alternating views on the U.S. News rankings, they are important for high school students’ decision to apply. Any drop in rankings will deter qualified students from applying and attending. The University has been riding on its highly ranked departments — Engineering, Library Science, and Business, to name a few — for a long time. While they do a great job of attracting the best talent, they alone are not enough to accept our current place.

We don’t see what the children see

JOANNA ROTHENBERG Opinions columnist

I

love election season. I love everything from volunteering on campaigns, to the debates, to the various jargon used by the politicians. And yes, I even love the great quotes that can come from them, such as Sarah Palin’s “I can see Russia from my house” or Rick Perry’s “Newt isn’t perfect, but who among us is?” Beyond these quips, what is their plan to help Americans like me? With 47 days left until Nov. 6, election coverage will amp up to an even higher degree. Networks will focus more on the election, canvassing and phone calls will seem like daily events, and attacks amongst politicians will become commonplace. Why? Because in just 48 days, candidates can no longer change the mind of a voter. And even though only a month and a half is left, there are still circumstances in which it is appropriate to suspend campaigning for a day. For this to happen, there needs to be a major event — something horrific, like the death of a diplomat or explosions at an embassy. But no one would be crazy enough to use a situation like that to try to gain an advantage over his or her opponent. What was that? Gov. Romney did? The same man who thinks the middle class makes somewhere between $200,000 and $250,000? Oh Mitt, you and your foolish, out of touch ways have struck again. As many of you are aware, four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, were killed in a bombing at the U.S. Embassy in Benghazi, Libya this past Sept. 11. To many of us, Sept. 11 is a day of remembrance — a day to stand together as Americans and remember the lives that were lost 11 years ago. To the Romney campaign, it was just another day to attack the opponent. I will be the first to admit I know very little about foreign policy. Like many Americans, I forget to branch out of the American politics bubble. Too often, I rely on my former roommate, a State Department intern, to tell me what is happening outside the United States.

However, I would like to think I know some of the basic guidelines to a good campaign, none of which include a statement like “It’s disgraceful that the Obama Administration’s first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks.” Sorry Mitt, but I think you are the disgraceful one here. Four Americans died and your response is to attach Obama to terrorists on the same day. Way to show the American public what it means to stand together. I know I was shocked when it backfired on him. But that must be the worst of it. There is no way the Romney campaign could make it any worse. Oh, but don’t worry, they did. According to CNN’s political ticker, one of Romney’s foreign policy advisers, Richard Williamson, stated the attacks on the embassy “could have been averted if Romney were president.” Continuing the attack, Mr. Williamson reminded the American people that this was the first death of an ambassador since the Jimmy Carter Administration — a Democratic one, no less — in the 1980s. Clearly the whole situation was the president’s fault. How dare he not give every foreign post the strictest of security on the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. I did not realize everyone should assume there is going to be an attack on the same day every 11 years. It is not surprising the Obama administration came back with a statement claiming their shock over Romney’s political attack. A more appropriate response would have been to leave well enough alone; releasing a statement to retaliate is just as bad as Romney’s attack. It reminds me of two children tattling to the teacher or parent — no one wins and everyone around them is just annoyed. I would have thought a winning plan would have been to work together to release a joint statement on a day when everyone else in this country stood together. But with 47 days left until the election, I guess it is too naive to believe the two politicians could work together, even for just that one day.

merica is in a crisis paralleling that of John Hughes’ “Home Alone”: we are forgetting our children. Overshadowed by recent events such as the death of U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and the Chicago Teachers Union strike, we fail to acknowledge how these affect our youth. Perhaps not the events in particular that influence our youth, but the raw and often uncensored nature in which these events are portrayed by the media. How do I reassure a terrified 12-year-old that she will be OK after seeing pictures of the destroyed U.S. Embassy in Libya? How can we tell our youth that despite schools being closed, these teachers are actually rioting for students? As a society, we are uncomfortable with confronting these answers, particularly the messages and insight the youth gain while interacting with media. The Libya crisis may cause children to perceive Islam as a religion of extremism and intolerance, whereas the teachers strike may be seen as neglecting the welfare and priorities of students. These are the messages that shape the development of our youth. But at such a young age, our youth may not see the underlying message of these events and only see the angry and horrifying facade presented by the media. The culture of hate and disregard for “the other side” of an issue is a rising concern for upcoming generations. For those of you unfamiliar with the Libyan counter-protest to the attack on the U.S. Embassy, Libyan protesters made signs emphasizing their sorrow for the American people and clarified that this incident should not be generalized to all Libyans. Unfortunately, these are not the kind of stories that are publicized, at least not to the extent the more “gripping” front-page stories are. In fact, this is a perfect example of the kind of media follow-up and clarification that I believe will counteract the negative messages the youth receives. Just imagine your reaction when a child raises his or her hand in class, curious as to why Libyans and Muslims hate Americans, who are also clearly unaware of the instigating antiMuslim film “Innocence over Muslims.” You know, that one thing that set everyone off in the first place. The disheartening thing is that you don’t have to imagine any of this — it’s actually happening. The teachers strike may be especially confusing in its representation, considering that it encompasses a concept any child over the age of 5 is all too familiar with — education. We have half of the focus on the strike being inessential and exaggerated and half focusing on the bias in standardized testing and unfair teacher-evaluation procedures, essentially a dichotomous path of reform. If a child sees teachers armed with picket signs and speakerphones, can he or she really differentiate between who stands for what? Again, what happens when students ask their teacher why there is so much fighting and why they had to start school late? And sometimes that’s how it works — students assume their teachers were fighting so much that they couldn’t start school on time. We need to start realizing that students, regardless of age and grade, are the most affected by educational reform. Then, it is these students and youth that are the most worthy of unbiased reporting. This is why the implications of sending negative messages are so harmful; they often go unnoticed and unattended. We cannot keep weakening and marginalizing the truth just because we are unacquainted and scared of action, or lack thereof. We don’t need to hide the truth — we just need to make sense of it and put it in a context where our youth can be informed but not intimidated. We don’t have to succumb to the media’s portrayal of the Libyan bombing and teachers strike. We can use this as an opportunity to involve our youth in the process of constructing what the media misconstrues.

campus that are affected by the DREAM Act. They can’t get federal funding because they aren’t citizens yet.” The DREAM Act, an acronym for Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors, is a legislative proposal that would provide conditional residency to undocumented residents who graduated from U.S. high schools, as long as certain conditions are met. Eventually, these residents can acquire permanent residency. What’s Black in the News will feature two other speakers as well: Professor Richard Price, the founder of Journal-isms, and Sunny Hostin, a CNN legal analyst who has covered top stories such as the Trayvon Martin case and the Casey Anthony trial. As an RSO, NABJ plans two major events each school year: What’s Black in the News in the fall semester, and a writer’s workshop in the spring semester. “The writer’s workshops doesn’t just cover one (field) of journalism,” said Rachel Loyd, NABJ president and junior in Media. “(Last year) we had people come in and talk about written journalism, photojournalism ... sports journalism, and it was just a lot of different kinds.” NABJ opens up their workshop to all the other NABJ chapters in the state of Illinois. When the club isn’t planning these events, it works on planning fundraisers. The meetings are laid-back and casual, with all of the group’s members bouncing ideas off of each other. The organization hopes to attract a diverse audience for WBITN. “We geared it toward all students,” Flowers said. “Our voice, our vote, our future ... What I want (students) to get out of this is just to understand and be more receptive and proactive in politics ... If you can vote, it’s a privilege, not a right. I think it’s a shame that (some students) are not living to (their) full potential.” The National Association of Black Journalists meets on Tuesdays at 5:30 p.m. in the RSO complex located on the second floor of the Illini Union. What’s Black in the News will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 26 from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the SDRP Multipurpose Rooms A & B. A post reception will follow the event.

CONDOMS

It can be hard to have a conversation surrounding contraception with sexual partners, especially when it’s after a night on Green Street and the clock reads 2 a.m. If students are educated about safe sex and carry contraception with them, they are much less likely to contract diseases or have an unwanted pregnancy. “We do everything possible to make sure students are informed, but people can get carried away sometimes, especially when they are drinking,” said Jerry Ogbudimkpa, the director of Health Education at the McKinley Health Center. Ogbudimkpa believes that all students should be educated on the topic of sexual health and should not be afraid to protect themselves, as a lack of contraception is a health risk. It is often forgotten that carrying contraception is a health necessity.

Haas pointed out that condoms should be as necessary as carrying a bottle of Tylenol in your backpack. If students are not comfortable taking advantage of the resources that the University offers, the Dollar Rubber Club can easily serve as a safety net. With the click of a button, condoms are shipped in an envelope containing a sexy, silk bag to be hidden in a night stand. “We’d rather (students) use the Dollar Rubber Club than nothing at all,” Swanson said. Whether students are getting free condoms from the Union or ‘Dollar Rubbers’ online, they should remember that protecting themselves is not only safe, but cool. “If I had it my way, there would be a jar of condoms everywhere you look,” Haas said.

“I like having the Twitter feed up during class because it gives me an opportunity to comment or ask about things that I normally wouldn’t,” said Linda Dunne, junior in Media. When asked how he makes himself stand out to students, Wolters gave a very simple reply: “I say hi.” For many students, the transition from high school teachers to college professors can be a difficult one. It’s much harder to create a personal connection with a teacher in college considering there is less time in class and larger class sizes. However, Wolters makes a point of walking through hallways before class starts, asking students how they’re doing, and writing personal emails to students about things they’ve accomplished. Wolters prides himself in knowing that he tries to prepare students as much as possible. “My main point is that I want to prepare them for the moment they walk out to go get a job,” Wolters said. “I don’t want to teach them definitions because that will never help them in the real world. Practical experience is what they need.” It’s obvious that Wolters has true concern for his students because even though he’s a man with an excellent education in business, he knows that students have to do what’s right for them. “Some students get on a path and say ‘my dad really wants me to do this’ or ‘my mom really wants me to do this,’” Wolters said. “I’m like, that’s great

but you’re looking yourself in the mirror, so do what makes you happy.” In fact, Wolters has followed his own advice throughout his life, even though he also felt pressure from his dad to become something he didn’t want to be. By following and accomplishing his own dream, Wolters is able to work every day with the people who mean the world to him — his students. “I don’t go to class for the paycheck and I don’t go to class to sit in my office with no windows,” Wolters said. “I go to work because I love seeing the students. I think that goes in with the humor and enthusiasm because I love being here.” After settling back into living in the United States, Dr. Wolters admits that even though living in a European capital is a bit more interesting than living in Champaign, his ultimate love of teaching lies at the University. “I’ve loved teaching here the most. The students have been the most challenging in terms of the stuff they ask, what they do and how much they want to learn,” Wolters said. Ultimately, Wolters is a person who has followed his two passions, travel and teaching, to the highest level. Happiness is Wolters’ specialty, which is shown through the simple advice he gives. “Just do what makes you happy,” he said. “That’s all that matters.”

“In other words, we wanted to compare and contrast the difference between mainstream journalists covering black stories versus black journalists covering black stories.”

FROM PAGE 6A “(Contraception) isn’t seen as cool, and I think the taboos are a pretty big deal,” said James Haas, senior in LAS, with experience at McKinley and Planned Parenthood. Haas has worked with various sexual education programs and has dealt with handing out free condoms on campus through McKinley. He recognized that often times students blush and turn away at the offer of free contraception. Students can grab a month’s worth of condoms with a swipe of the hand, but many turn down the offer. “I think (the Dollar Rubber Club) is awesome because when we hand out condoms, I think a lot of people are embarrassed about having them in public,” Haas said.

WOLTERS FROM PAGE 6A dents a sense of the world in a bigger way,” said Kaitlin Fanning, junior in Business. Wolters started making videos because, as a former student himself, he knew that studying doesn’t always happen when it should. “I started making the videos actually to help my students study for exams in case the TA’s weren’t there,” Wolters said. “You know, students don’t always study at 4 in the afternoon — it could be at 3 in the morning.” Creating videos is just one of the many ways Wolters ensures that his students will have an enjoyable learning experience. Between cracking jokes and incorporating social media into lectures, Wolters’ class is not one students choose to nap in. “I always found that if you believe in your course work, you believe in what you’re doing, and you’re very passionate about it, then it’s easy to put humor into it,” Wolters said. “You remember jokes, you remember funny things.” Wolters does his best to accommodate students, especially in classes that have a few hundred people in them. By putting a Twitter feed up in front of the class, students can tweet at Wolters’ account during class about any answers or questions they may have — a perfect solution for the student who is too shy to speak in front of a 300-person lecture.

SHIPMENTS FOR THE SHY Dollar Rubber Club offers discreet, cheap condoms BY BECKY ZILIS STAFF WRITER

P

urchasing condoms on a college campus can be a dreaded trip to the store for many students, sometimes resulting in a cart full of random items meant to cover up the trip’s intent. Whether students are afraid of running into their cute TA with a box of lubricated condoms or dropping the product in the middle of the check-out line, buying contraception can be an nerveinducing process. Dollar Rubber Club (www.dollarrubberclub.com) is looking to make that uncomfortable purchase a regular and easy experience. Bill Swanson , head of Media Relations for the Dollar Rubber Club, found that people buying condoms often left the grocery store feeling uncomfortable with their purchases. When walking up to the cashier with a box of condoms and a random pack of gum to hide the box won’t do the trick, the Dollar Rubber Club can be there to help. “The Dollar Rubber Club is about providing a better, more cost effective and less awkward way for people to buy condoms,” Swanson said. The company consists of an online membership program where a small credit card payment can ensure that a discreetly packaged box of condoms will be delivered to their customers’ doorsteps each month. “We wanted to use a membership model where we could save our customers the embarrassment of going to the store (to buy condoms) and also make it easy for them to receive their condoms on a monthly basis,” Swanson said. The website provides an easy ordering system where members can choose between Trojan, Durex and Lifestyles condoms, with four varieties offered for each brand. Orders can start as low as $3. The cheapest package, called The Traveling Salesman, includes three condoms of choice. The Weekend Warrior, the most expensive package, is a 12 condom variety

pack for $10, sizes and textures varying. Swanson said their company is not only looking to make their customers more comfortable, but more informed about sexual education as well. “We are all about promoting safe sex and making responsible decisions about your body and health,” Swanson said. The company partners with various sexual education organizations across the country, and while their business is for profit, it looks to educate various universities and groups on what it means to be protected. While the Dollar Rubber Club can bring condom purchasing to your web browser, the McKinley Health Center hosts various programs that include free c o nt r a c e p t i o n . C ont raception is handed out to students for free in the Union and in various cultural houses on campus. Pajion Montgomery, senior in LAS, is the chairman of the Special Populations Committee, a student-run program that caters to educating minorities on various health topics. Montgomery explained that McKinley not only offers free condoms in various brands and sizes, but also provides other forms of sexual safety such as dental dams, pregnancy tests and lube. “Everything is included in your student health fee, and you can get them every two weeks,” Montgomery said. McKinley looks to hand out the kinds of products that students are already purchasing on their own. They include an array of sizes, fl avors and textures to ensure all students are accommodated. While all information remains confidential and parents of students are never involved in the process, carrying condoms can still feel embarrassing for some students.

PEOPLE TO KNOW

Mark Wolters changing teaching game with media BY TAYLOR ELLIS STAFF WRITER

If students are lucky enough, they’ll look back on their education and remember at least one teacher who stands out in their memory — the teacher who took the time to get to know them, went beyond their job description and made minutes spent in class fly by. For students taking Dr. Mark Wolters’ class, there’s a chance that “Wolters” will be a name stuck in their memories for years to come. Wolters, visiting assistant professor in the Col-

lege of Business, is single-handedly changing the teaching game at the University, and his students are willingly along for the ride. Between Twitter feeds during class to uploading 700 videos to his teaching-related YouTube account, it seems as though Wolters will stop at nothing to accomplish his goal of getting students to get the most out of learning. After receiving his undergraduate degree from the University, Wolters didn’t waste any time when it came to discovering the world. Wolters has teaching experience in both Lithuania and

Sports Illini Paralympian wins 4 gold medals in 1st games Also wins U. S. Olympic Committee Sportsman of the Year BY MICHAEL WONSOVER STAFF WRITER

Don’t let Raymond Martin’s age fool you: He’s been working for this moment the past 13 years. Martin, 18, a four-time gold medalist at the 2012 Paralympic Games, has been racing since he was 5 despite the fact that he was born with Arthrogryposis, or Freeman Sheldon Syndrome. Both conditions left Martin as a quadriplegic, meaning all of his limbs are disabled in some form. All the joints in his body are hooked, his legs can’t straighten, his wrists are locked and his fingers can’t open all the way. Given his disabilities, Martin’s childhood growing up in New Jersey was far from easy. “From an early age, we trained Raymond to do everything for himself,” said Daniel Martin, Raymond’s father. “He had a difficult early childhood. He’s had 17 surgeries to get him where he is. It made him a better person adapting to his disability.” Even with the physical difficulties that Martin faced, nothing stopped him from racing. “When I was at my first school, basically the school was for children with disabilities,” Martin said. “They had a track team going there. The coach saw me in gym class, and she picked me out and was like, ‘Oh, do you wan-

Previewing Big Ten volleyball BY DANIEL MILLER-MCLEMORE STAFF WRITER

With Big Ten volleyball right around the corner, it’s time to check in on one of the elite conferences in the country. The Big Ten is home to more top-25 teams than any other conference in the country. Only the top-heavy Pac-12, with five teams in the top 10, can compete with the talent and depth the Big Ten offers. Conference play kicked off Wednesday night when No. 3 Nebraska and No. 4 Penn State battled for conference supremacy in State College, but the other 10 teams will take the court Friday night. Let’s take a look at the lay of the land as another conference season begins.

THE FAVORITES NEBRASKA

Record — 8-1 National rank — 3 Quality wins — UCLA, Kentucky Bad losses — none The Cornhuskers held the No. 1 ranking in the country for two weeks before losing to No. 19 Iowa State last Saturday and falling to No. 3. Still, the reigning conference champions are the league’s highest-ranked team and must be considered a strong favorite until proven otherwise.

THE CONTENDERS

PENN STATE

Record — 10-1 National rank — 4 Quality wins — Louisville, Stanford, Texas Bad losses — none There was something unnatural about the Big Ten standings at the end of the 2011 season: The Nittany Lions weren’t on top. For the first time in eight years, a team besides Penn State claimed the conference title. With an attack led by outside hitters Deja McClendon and Ariel Scott, this year’s Nittany Lions are looking to climb back to the top of the mountain.

WISCONSIN

NORTHWESTERN

MICHIGAN STATE

Record — 12-2 Unranked Quality wins — none Bad losses — none Michigan was ranked as recently as last week before a loss to No. 24 Western Kentucky knocked the Wolverines out of the top 25. Sophomore Lexi Dannemiller is fifth in the Big Ten in assists per set (11.02). Record — 11-0 Unranked Quality wins — none Bad losses — none Like Michigan State, the Wildcats have compiled an impressive record without being tested by a ranked opponent. Now lying on the fringe of the top 25, Northwestern will have to prove it can win against ranked teams to move up any further.

Preseason All-Big Ten team

Deja McClendon, Penn State Ariel Turner, Purdue Tori Dixon, Minnesota Ashley Wittman, Minnesota Lauren Cook, Nebraska Hannah Werth, Nebraska Stephanie Holthus, Northwestern Katie Slay, Penn State

Record — 12-1 Unranked Quality wins — none Bad losses — none The Badgers only loss came in the first weekend of the season. Since then, Wisconsin has reeled off 11 straight victories and dropped only four sets along the way, albeit against no notable opponents. Record — 12-0 National rank — 25 Quality wins — none Bad losses — none The Spartans have been untested during a relatively easy nonconference schedule. The competition will stiffen significantly in conference play, but their string of 12 wins, nine of which came in straight sets, should not be overlooked.

2012 Big Ten Volleyball Players of the Week Aug. 27 Co-Players of the Week — Lexi Erwin (junior, Michigan). Erwin was named Tiger Invitational MVP after hitting .443 over the weekend to lead the Wolverines to four wins in Columbia, Mo. Lauren Cook (senior, Nebraska). Cook posted double-doubles in assists and digs in three Cornhusker victories, including a

Record — 9-2 National rank — 17 Quality wins — none Bad losses — Washington, Louisville Penn State and Illinois made bigger splashes nationwide, but the Boilermakers tied with both teams for a second-place finish in the Big Ten last season. Purdue performed well in nonconference play this year, but dropped its only two matches to ranked teams in straight sets. The going doesn’t get much easier in the Big Ten, so the Boilermakers will have to find their groove against tough competition. ILLINOIS

THE UNKNOWNS MICHIGAN

PURDUE

Record — 6-4 National rank — 20 Quality wins — Texas, Iowa State Bad losses — none Illinois played a rigorous nonconference schedule, with six out of its 10 games coming against ranked opponents. The Illini finally put it together last weekend at the Texas Invitational, winning all three games, including a win over No. 9 Texas on the Longhorns’ home court so Illinois enters conference play flying a bit under the radar.

MINNESOTA

Record — 9-2 National rank — 12 Quality wins — Texas, Dayton Bad losses — none The Golden Gophers took off under new head coach Hugh McCutcheon, who coached the U.S. women’s national team during the London Olympics. Minnesota won its first six games of the season and raced into the top 25 after starting the season unranked. With its only losses coming at the hands of No. 9 Texas and No. 11 Kansas State, Minnesota figures to play a central role in the Big Ten race. OHIO STATE

Record — 9-3 National rank — 23 Quality win — Dayton Bad losses — none Like Illinois, Ohio State played a tough nonconference slate, with all three losses coming against teams ranked in the top 15. The Buckeyes will be looking to improve on a 2011 season that saw them fall to the bottom half of the Big Ten with a losing record in conference play.

THE REST IOWA

INDIANA

Record — 8-4 Unranked Quality wins — none Bad losses — Stephen F. Austin, Butler, Valparaiso Indiana won just a single game in Big Ten play last year, and with the strength of the conference this season, the Hoosiers will be fortunate to do much better.

five-set win against No. 1 UCLA. Freshman of the Week — Katie Gallagher (Indiana). The freshman setter tallied two double-doubles in assists and digs during the Hoosiers’ 3-0 start to the season. Sept. 4 P — Micha Hancock (sophomore, Penn State). Hancock keyed two Penn State wins against top-10 opponents Stanford and Texas with steady production and distribution.

Record — 8-5 Unranked Quality wins — none Bad losses — Southeast Missouri Iowa tied for last in the Big Ten with Indiana last year. The Hawkeyes showed promise in a five-set loss against in-state rival No. 19 Iowa State but don’t figure to contend in a stacked conference.

Harms’ 24-kill, 13dig performance led the Golden Gophers to a 3-1 victory against No. 9 Texas. F — Meghan Haggerty (Nebraska). Haggerty reeled in her second straight Freshman

of the Week award by hitting .600 in wins against Oklahoma and Kentucky, including an .818 hitting percentage against the Sooners. Sept. 17 P and F — Jocelynn Birks (Illinois). Birks tallied doubledoubles in three Illinois victories at the Texas Invitational, leading the team in kills over the weekend with 60 on her way to being named tournament MVP and Illini of the Week.

Illinois defense prepares for another challenge Louisiana Tech has scored at least 50 points, hasn’t kicked FG in 1st 2 games BY JAMAL COLLIER STAFF WRITER

The Illinois football team has already faced prolific offenses this season, including the rocket arm of Western Michigan’s Alex Carder and Arizona State’s fastpaced attack. But the Illini defense said its next opponent, Louisiana Tech, will be the toughest challenge thus far. During the Bulldogs’ 56-49 victory over Houston on Sept. 8, the two teams combined for 209 plays — a NCAA record for most combined plays run in a regulation game. The game also set a record with 79 first downs. Illinois has 51 first downs in the three games its played this year. “We know we’re going to have our hands fi lled,” defensive coordinator Tim Banks said. “We have to do a great job of tackling, wrapping these guys up because they’re really fast and have great balance.” Tempo is once again the key for Illinois’ defense, and Louisiana Tech figures to be even faster than Arizona State. After the debacle against the Sun Devils, which was filled with miscommunication and missed assignments, defensive tackle Akeem Spence said the team has been working to make adjustments in practice. The Illini have simplified the play calling, using color cards to help get plays in faster. Some of these cards will give the defense the ability to call audibles. The Illini also have brought in the scout team quarterback, who has been running what Spence called “fastballs” —

DiBernardo’s return jump-starts offense in Big Ten opener BY CHARLIE MANIATES STAFF WRITER

The Illinois soccer offense did more than just play better Sunday. The team combined for a total of 28 shots, 10 on goal, against previously undefeated Iowa . This was a vast improvement from the previous weekend in which the Illini could only muster a combined 11 shots, three on goal, in two matches. The return of junior midfielder Vanessa DiBernardo was a catalyst in the offensive explosion. She made her presence known right away, scoring a goal in only the fourth minute of the game.

It was not just DiBernardo, though. Everything was clicking for the offense, providing relief after fi nding the back of the net only six times in its fi rst seven games. Still, the team feels there is room for improvement. “Offensively, we created a lot (of opportunities),” head coach Janet Rayfi eld said. “Now, I think we need to be a little more selective in what we do with those offensive chances, and it will make us even more dangerous.” Rayfield added that the team did a better job of possessing the ball than in previous matches, which allowed the Illini to garner more opportunities. Ray-

field also felt that her team’s ball movement was one of the biggest reasons that it was able to have a strong offensive attack. “A lot of it was our movement of the ball — we moved the ball around and we really fought to get behind their defense,” Rayfield said. “We fought hard to get behind them, but we had players who could possess the ball in front of them, and that’s what created opportunities against Iowa.” Junior forward Megan Pawloski played a vital role in the win, tallying assists on both goals Sunday. “There was only one game over the weekend, so everyone had a lot of energy. We came

out and moved the ball really well, and we fi nished opportunities,” Pawloski said. “We’ve been getting opportunities all season, and it was nice to start putting some away.” Despite the vast improvement from the previous weekend, the Illini said they did not change their game plan. “We did a lot of the same things,” senior forward Niki Read said. “When we work hard and run for each other, we get the points that we need, and that’s what happened.” T he I l l i n i’s for mation remained the same, and both

MARTIN FROM PAGE 1B start. The youngest competitors after Martin were 30 or older, but Martin managed to fi nish with a time of 17.02 seconds. The second-place fi nisher, Salvador Hernandez Mondragon of Mexico, was 48 years old. Mondragon fi nished with a time of 17.64 seconds. That .62 time difference might sound close, but not in the realm of Paralympic track. “I was actually crying,” Daniel Martin said of his son’s performance. “I was crying in joy cause Raymond actually got gold in the Paralympics. The 100 meter isn’t really a fair race for him since he’s a longer distance person. I was really excited when he took the 100 meter.” Because the Paralympics were not televised in the U.S., Daniel Martin had to watch his son via the Internet. Like many other Paralympic fans, his father found NBC Sports’ lack of coverage frustrating. “We were furious and disappointed with the United States that it was not televised in this country,” Martin said. “We had to watch it on the Internet in order to see it.” Despite having some pressure lifted off his shoulders by winning gold in the 100 meters, Martin knew he was going to be the underdog once again in the 400. “(The 100) defi nitely took off a little bit of pressure,” Martin said. “Not too much because Paul Nitz was the favorite in the 100, and my next one was the 400, which (Tomoyo Ito) from Japan was (a) favorite. He held the world record, and he won world champs last year, so it took off a little bit of pressure just because I gained some momentum. But I knew I had to refocus because I was racing a totally different person in that race.” Martin easily won again in the 400, fi nishing with a time of 58.54 seconds. Ito came in second place with his season-best time of 1:00.40, but it wasn’t good enough to stop Martin. Martin would beat out the 49-year-old Ito once again in the 200, fi nishing with a Paralympic record time of 30.25. Ito fi nished over a full second later with a time of 31.60. Martin would knock off Ito for the third time in the 800, fi nishing the race in a time of 2:00.34. Ito would give Martin his best competition, fi nishing only .28 seconds behind the 18-year-old. Nonetheless, Martin solidified himself as the T52 classification’s newest star. Although Martin had high expectations for himself heading into the games, he never expected to take home four golds and to win the U.S. Olympic Committee

SOCCER FROM PAGE 1B Pawloski and Read said having DiBernardo in the mix provided a spark for the offense. Read added that strong defensive play was also a factor in the offensive game. “What is great about our team is that we had a really good defensive base, and we just keep plugging away, plugging away,” Read said, “And we’re just going to keep getting better offensively throughout the year.”

Sportsman of the Year. “It’s one of those pie in the sky things,” Martin said. “I knew it was a slim possibility just because I came in ranked fi rst in three out of four of my races. I defi nitely didn’t think I was gonna win the 100, I’m gonna reiterate that. Going in, no, I didn’t think I was gonna win four gold medals.” Martin’s coach, Adam Bleakney, was not surprised by his success at his fi rst Paralympic Games. “To be honest with you, I expected he would win,” Bleakney said. “Physically, he has such an advantage over his competitors. He’s demonstrated that in his competitions throughout the spring and the summer and where his development has taken him. And just looking at the times he was running, it was not really a surprise that he won the gold.” Martin attributed his gold medals to his training regimen. “It’s all about getting the training done,” Martin said. “All my training was done by the time we hit London. It was all a mental game after that. You’re already at your fitness level, you already have the speed. All you have to do is be mentally fit for each race whether it’s the 100 meter or the 800 meter.” “He trains like the rest of my Paralympic medalists and world champions and national team-level athletes and frankly the entire team,” Bleakney said. “He’s got a very solid work ethic and not only observing him in training but in conversations with his former coach, Ray’s a diligent worker and does everything you ask of him.” If Martin had been able to, he might have won seven gold medals at the 2012 Games. Unfortunately, the 1,500, 5,000 and the marathon were !"#$%&'"&()! in the T52 classification. “The only reason I did the 100 to 800 was because that’s the only events that my class is eligible for at the games,” Martin said. “(The International Olympic Committee) cut the marathon out of our class, they cut the 1,500 and the 5,000. Hopefully, they change their mind about that. By cutting out the marathon this year, they didn’t even save time, they were just cutting classes. Hopefully for Rio (in 2016), they do add more longer stuff, and I’ll definitely get into that.” Bleakney thinks the future of the T52 classification is in Martin’s hands. “He’ll continue to dominate the quadriplegic class for as long as he wants to.” And his next competition is at the Chicago Marathon in October.

Michael can be reached at wonsovr2@ dailyillini.com and @The_MDubb. The rest of the team also thinks this is only the start of what the offense can become for the remaining schedule. Rayfield said the match against Iowa showed fl ashes of how well the team can play together at full strength, something the players are looking forward to. “It’s obviously more fun when you’re the team that’s getting all the shots instead of defending it all the time,” Pawloski said. “It’ll just get better with time.”

Tigers top A’s, gain game on Sox Cabrera’s solo home run, Verlander’s six scoreless innings lead Detroit to victory BY LARRY LAGE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT — Miguel Cabrera homered, Omar Infante drove in three runs and Justin Verlander pitched six scoreless innings to help the Detroit Tigers beat the Oakland Athletics 6-2 on Wednesday night. Verlander (15-8) allowed five hits and three walks while striking out five. The Tigers have won two straight over the A’s — and 28 of their last 36 games at home — in their chase to catch the AL Central-leading Chicago White Sox. Oakland, clinging to an AL wild-card spot, has dropped three straight and might have had a costly loss on the mound because Brett Anderson (4-2) left the game after two-plus innings with a strained right oblique. The A’s forced Verlander to throw 122 pitches and that ended his night. Octavio Dotel struck out two in a perfect seventh. Joaquin Benoit had two strikeouts in the eighth. Jose Valverde closed

the game in a non-save situation, entering with a six-run lead, and was booed after giving up twoout RBI singles to Cliff Pennington and Stephen Drew. Detroit played some small ball to take a 3-0 lead in the third. Andy Dirks and Gerald Laird started the inning with bunt singles and advanced on Austin Jackson’s groundout. Infante followed with a double down the leftfield line to put the Tigers up 2-0. After walking Cabrera intentionally and giving Prince Fielder a free pass on four pitches to load the bases, Anderson was injured while pitching to Delmon Young. Anderson fell forward and landed awkwardly after throwing his 48th pitch. Oakland trainer Nick Paparesta and manager Bob Melvin talked with Anderson briefly on the field before deciding to take him out of the game. Right-hander Pat Neshek replaced Anderson and Young promptly hit a sacrifice fly to give the Tigers a 3-0 lead.

Conference heads meet to discuss BCS Top officials convene to consider adding new semifinal game BY RICK GANO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ROSEMONT, Ill. — Conference commissioners are considering the possibility of adding another game to be part of the semifi nal rotation for the new college football playoff. The postseason plan approved by university presidents in June called for the national semifinals to rotate among six bowl sites. The years those sites do not host semifi nals, they would be marquee bowl games, involving other highly ranked teams. There are numerous details still to be worked before the format is implemented in 2014, including the composition of the selection committee that will

It has yet to kick a field goal, and its spread offense doesn’t rely only on throwing the ball either. The Bulldogs are ninth in the NCAA in rushing with 289 yards per game, so Illinois has made its first priority stopping the run. They feature two freshmen running backs — Tevin King and

And now it seems like the plan might be tweaked to give teams that don’t make the playoff more chances to play in high-revenue games. Although requests for proposals won’t go out until November, BCS executive director Bill Hancock said numerous cities have informally expressed interest. He said the process will likely be similar to the one used to pick the site of the NCAA’s Final Four. Two of the sites are set. The Rose Bowl, long the destination for the Big Ten and Pac-12 champions, is in. The Orange Bowl, which recently agreed to a longterm deal with the Atlantic Coast Conference is in. The site of the new bowl between the Big 12 and Southeastern Conference will also be in the semifi nal rotation. Kenneth Dixon — who carry the ball equally. There’s also quarterback Colby Cameron, who Spence said has made some throws on tape that he’s never seen a quarterback make. “Getting off to a good start is critical,” Banks said. “Tackle, make sure that we limit their big plays and taking (the running backs) away. They’ve got (to get) on top of people extremely fast, and they’ve got that thing rolling, and the rest has been history.”

The good news for Illinois is that it can likely expect to have starting quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase back for Saturday’s game, as Beckman said “he’s almost 100 percent.” Starting center Graham Pocic and linebacker Houston Bates did have purple jerseys on during practice, which indicates an injured player, and their status for Saturday’s game is unknown. However, running back Josh Ferguson has participated fully in practice despite missing last week’s game with a concussion. Defensive back Steve Hull seems to still be “a way’s away” from returning, while Supo Sanni has practiced, though his status is still being evaluated.

Recruiting season begins Beckman didn’t have an opportunity to watch Toledo’s first game of the season Sept. 1 because it was the start of the recruiting season, and Beckman wanted to hit the ground running. He’s already begun to make phone calls, and Illinois coaches made it out to high schools last week. Illinois will also take advantage of the night football game as it will host some recruits. “We’re full speed,” Beckman said. “In recruiting, you never have a break. It’s go, go, go all the time.”
