DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT

ormer Illinois assistant basketball coach and Champaign Central High School head coach Wayne McClain died Wednesday at the age of 59. He is survived by his wife Robin, son Sergio and daughter Brindeshie. He was hospitalized with pneumonia earlier this week. McClain served as an assistant coach at Illinois for 11 seasons between 2002-12, under former head coaches Bill Self and Bruce Weber. During his last three seasons, he served as the associate head coach under Weber. At Illinois, McClain was a part of three Big Ten Championship-winning teams, including the 2004-05 team that finished as national runner-up. McClain left Illinois to follow Weber to Kansas State after Weber was fired in 2012. Last year, McClain took

over as head coach at Champaign Central and led the Maroons to a regional title in his first season. “This is a tremendous loss for not only our students, staff and families but for the community,” the Champaign Public School District said in a statement. “Coach McClain influenced the lives of many during his time at Central and impacted so many more during his long, successful coaching career.” Prior to his time at Illinois and Champaign Central, McClain was highly successful in his seven-year career as head coach at Peoria Manual High School. Peoria Manual won three consecutive IHSA Class AA state titles in his first three seasons between 1995-97. McClain coached Peoria Manual to a 94-5 record in those three years.

The FDA’s scoring system is out of 100 points and CUPHD’s adjusted score places more emphasis on critical violations or repeat violations. “What is meaningful about the numbers is that obviously someone with quite a few violations is lacking managerial

An adjusted score of 36 or above is satisfactory, and scores below 35 indicate compliance below a satisfactory level. Facilities are given the opportunity to correct as many of the violations as possible during the course of the inspection, Roberts said.

Establishments that fall below compliance can submit a request for reinspection when they are ready, and an inspector will come within 48 hours. This system marks a change from the old policy where an establishment would be reinspected within 30 days. The change in the reinspection period coincides with the implementation of

Green efforts bring CUMTD Gold level BY ABIGALE SVOBODA STAFF WRITER

CUMTD recently received gold-level recognition for its Sustainability Commitment initiative, but the transit district is still pushing to further its green efforts on the roads and in the office. In 2009, CUMTD became a founding signatory of the American Public Transport Association’s Sustainability Commitment initiative. Signatories committed to a few core goals and were able to apply for higher recognition as they progressed. Five years later, in February 2014, CUMTD applied for gold-level recognition, the second-highest level possible. The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority is the only service to hold the highest level, Platinum Level status. The company was awarded gold-level recognition in August 2014, becoming one of only 12 transportation companies with the standing. “MTD works hard to be a

positive member of the community and the University,” said Jane Sullivan, CUMTD grant manager and sustainability planner. “This is another way that we can be socially and environmentally responsible.” This has huge benefits for the University community, as well as the city of Champaign, said Champaign Mayor Don Gerard. He added that Champaign has always had a great partnership with CUMTD and the city strives to work “handin-hand” with the company to maintain that relationship. Gerard noted that the city works hard to maintain infrastructure, particularly roads and bridges, and in turn CUMTD “urbanizes” Champaign, making it a “21st century city.” To maintain sustainability, CUMTD sets action items, stretch goals and reduction targets. This includes reducing the greenhouse gas impact of buses, as well as increasing the number of

Professor May Berenbaum, department head of Entomology, was awarded the National Medal of Science, the nation’s highest honor for achievement and leadership, for her research with insectplant interaction. This award, which is administered by the National Science Foundation, was established in 1959 as a Presidential Award given to recognize individuals who advance the fields of science and technology by contributing outstanding knowledge in the physical, biological, mathematical or engineering fields of science. Berenbaum has been a faculty member for the Department of Entomology since 1980, serving as a department head since 1992 and as Swanlund Chair of Entomology since 1996. Notably, she has taught two graduate classes in entomology, Insect Ecology and Chemical Ecology. Currently, she teaches a general education course called Insects and People. She received her undergraduate degree from

Yale and received her graduate degree from Cornell University. In 1980, Berenbaum came to the University and began her research with plants and insects. She believes that coming to work at the University was one of the best decisions she’s made. “Nothing beats this place in terms of collaboration, collegiality and expertise,” she said. Berenbaum believes her research, which studies the chemical mechanisms underlying interactions between insects and their host plants, has made a great impact not only for the campus, but for many others. “I didn’t set out to study insects of national importance, but as it turns out, insects, especially plant-fed insects, ended up being connected to any environmental crisis you can think of because they’re everywhere,” said Berenbaum. “My interest in insect-plant interactions has led me into work of global climate change, effects of elevated carbon dioxide, stratospheric ozone depletion and genetically modified crops,

Currently, 75 percent of CUMTD busses are hybrids. “Public transportation is inherently beneficial for the environment because it avoids the use of singleoccupancy vehicles,” Sullivan said. “MTD bus service can move more people with less energy, reducing fuel usage, greenhouse gas emissions and other pollution.” As far as in their offices, the company will continue the “green training” that all employees receive upon hiring, which includes reviewing the company’s idling policy and CUMTD’s use of soybean biodiesel. Additionally, the company recycles waste oil, which they use to heat their maintenance facility. They have also installed a geothermal heating and cooling sys-

tem in their administration facility. Since 2009, CUMTD has tracked water usage, air pollutant emissions, greenhouse gas emissions, energy use and its recycling and waste. The company continues to analyze the data each year in an effort to reduce its environmental effects and surpass the goals of its sustainability commitment, Sullivan said. Additionally, the company encourages people to bike to bus stops, rather than drive, by offering bike racks on the front of every bus. Although gold isn’t the highest ranking CUMTD could receive, the company strives to reach platinum level in the future, Sullivan said.

among others.” She has written over six books about insects for the public and founded the Insect Fear Film Festival, which is now in its 32nd year. “I want to help people understand why insects are important; understanding their biology is really the best way to share the planet with them,” said Berenbaum. Her current work focuses on honeybees, specifically regarding how they process pesticides and how the food that honeybees eat regulates every aspect of their life. “Thirty four years ago, I couldn’t have told you, ‘yes I will be studying pesticide metabolism by honeybees at the molecular level’ — and here I am today,” Berenbaum said. Mami Randrianandrasana, graduate student and teacher’s assistant, has worked for Berenbaum since 2008.

Islamist militants seize key military base in Iraq’s Anbar province IRBIL, Iraq — With the U.S. seemingly focused on helping Kurdish militias fight off an Islamic State advance at Kobani on the Turkey-Syria border, Islamist militants this week have seized one key military base in Iraq’s Anbar province and have laid siege to another, with

no major increase in U.S. air support for the beleaguered Iraqi security forces. Reports from Kobani indicate that intense U.S. airstrikes there have driven back Islamic State fighters, while in Anbar the militants’ advance has been unrelenting.

A video apparently showing six plainclothes Hong Kong police officers dragging a handcuffed prodemocracy protester into a dark corner then kicking and beating him captivated and enraged many in the semiautonomous Chinese territory on Wednesday. The incident threatened to ratchet up tensions anew just as the protests that have paralyzed parts of the city for more than two weeks looked to be running out of steam.

The man was later identified as Ken Tsang, a member of the pro-democracy Civic Party and a volunteer social worker who works with street children. Photos released by the pro-democracy Occupy Central movement after Tsang was taken to a nearby hospital showed his face, neck and back covered with dark red bruises. His attorney, Dennis Kwok, said that he was struck repeatedly with an object, and feared he may have internal injuries.

NAI grant fuels research on origins of life BY JOSH WINTERS STAFF WRITER

How did life begin on Earth? University scientists may come closer to finding an answer to this mystery with the help of a five-year $8 million dollar grant from NASA. The University has teamed together with 14 other universities, research laboratories and NASA centers participating in the NASA Astrobiology Institute, to study the diversity and evolution of life on Earth. The NAI is an institute dedicated to searching for environments hospitable to life in our solar system and on other planets. The University NAI team is based in the Institute for Genomic Biology. Gene Robinson, director of the IGB, is thrilled to see the project unfold on campus. “This bold research program fits perfectly at the IGB, which was established to help faculty compete for the large grants that are necessary to address grand challenges with a teambased multidisciplinary approach,” Robinson said in a press release. “The NASA award reflects the creativity and vision of the faculty in the Biocomplexity research theme, the IGB and the campus as a whole.” The University’s research team has established four research themes for their work on the project: to develop a mathematical under-

standing of the physical principles of the emergence and its evolution, “constrain the nature of life before the Last Common Universal Ancestor,” study how life evolved on Earth and determine what factors determine the rate of evolution for life. Nigel Goldenfeld, director of the Institute for Universal Biology and physics professor, is the principal researcher on the University’s team. “The main goal of our research is to understand the universal principles that govern the emergence of life, wherever it may arise,” said Goldenfeld. “NASA likes to call this ‘universal biology.’” Goldenfeld explained that the concept of universal biology is similar to how computers work today. All computers operate on the universal mathematical principles of logic and algorithms, he said, whether the computer is a Mac or a PC. He alluded that even though they may appear to be very different, all computers share certain characteristics. “Modern computers are designed to apply the fundamental mathematical principles of Turing and Von Neumann. Could you go the other way round: take an iPhone and figure out these fundamental mathematical principles if you did not know them?” asked Goldenfeld. “In a sense that is what we want to do with biology, take life on Earth and reverse-engi-

neer to figure out what are the basic principles behind living organisms.” One theory of the origin of life, serpentinization, has interested Elbert Branscomb, faculty member for the department of physics and the IGB and member of the University NAI team. Serpentinization, Branscomb said, is not a new theory; in fact, it has been around for roughly 30 years. However, it has only recently been picking up steam in the scientific community. Branscomb’s further research into the serpentinization theory was funded through the NAI grant the University received. Branscomb said what makes the theory so compelling is its explanation for how ATP, a chemical fuel essential to cells, could have been created by thermal vents at the bottom of the early Earth’s oceans. “One of the things about life is that its not just chemistry; it is not just if you stuck all the molecules together in the right size bag, nothing happens. You need the engine that drives (it),” said Branscomb. “It’s a Rube Goldberg machine of immense complexity.” When the Earth was still young, it was largely covered with a weak acidic ocean. Far below the primeval ocean’s surface, the Earth’s tectonic activity was continuously producing new crust on the

notification was conducted for the first six months per health district board request, hence, no separate reinspection report,” Roberts said. The frequency of inspections for a food provider is based on its level of risk for causing foodborne illnesses. The number of food handling operations and the type

of population served are factors that determine risk. Category I facilities undergo two inspections per year along with one educational opportunity. Category II facilities undergo one inspection per year and category III facilities receive at least one inspection per every two years, according to Roberts.

As new crust began to cool and crack, the acidic seawater was pushed into these cracks and produced a chemical reaction with minerals beneath the surface to create a highly alkaline solution that was pushed back into the ocean by chimney-like thermal vents, Branscomb said. Inside these vents, microscopic compartment formed a proton gradient that separated the acidic ocean from the alkaline solution coming from the vents. Branscomb said the gradient that was created in these vents billions of years ago is almost identical to the proton gradient that exists in all living cells today. By studying theories like serpentinization, Goldenfeld said, scientists could one day develop a universal origin of life theory. “We do not currently have a theory of living systems that convinces us that life is a general phenomenon,” said Goldenfeld. “So, because we have not detected life elsewhere, we do not know if it is there or not.”

Health and food safety inspections now publicized

C

hampaign-Urbana residents can finally know exactly how up-to-code their favorite local restaurants are, thanks to a recent change from the Champaign Urbana Public Health District. In September, the department launched an online database where you can read the health inspection report of any restaurant of your choosing. With the amount of meals many of us students eat outside of our apartments — houses or dorms, due to time constraints, lack of groceries or cooking skills — we are glad to be able to check up on the safety standards of some of our favorite CU go-to food venues. This is especially true since restaurant complaints in the area have been on the rise. This change in health inspection availability came after five years of discussion from the department, and the work of news organization CU-Citizen Access, who advocated for the information to be published. Since 2011, CUCitizen Access has been posting full inspection reports of restaurant failures on its website. However, now the Health District is making this information available online as well, and in great detail. This allows for more transparency and thus more accountability. Some of the various violations indicated have to do with potentially hazardous food due to unsafe temperatures, contamination, unhygienic practices and more. They say ignorance is bliss and what you don’t know won’t hurt you, but in this case, we think otherwise. When it comes to the restaurants we frequently visit, the food we ingest, the utensils we use and the tables we eat on, we would most certainly like to know. Another benefit is that not all of this content is onlineonly — every food establishment in Champaign-Urbana must display a sign that gives patrons information about its last inspection report. These signs also have Quick Response codes that can link smartphone users to the full inspection report. So if you forget to go online and check whether there are any health risks associated with your dinner plans for the night, you can still get that information when you arrive. What it comes down to is that dining out is a big part of campus culture. We frequently eat at many different restaurants in the ChampaignUrbana area, and many of us assume that most of the places we eat at meet health and safety standards. But it is important for us to know when these standards are not met, so that we don’t have to walk into a food establishment with our fingers crossed hoping that our meal was prepared in appropriate conditions. We appreciate that the Health District made health inspection information more available to us, and we sure hope our favorite venues passed the test.

Space exploration worth the price LUKE VEST Opinions columnist

T

he desire to understand some of the universe’s greatest mysteries has waned in recent years. In 2011, President Obama’s budget plan cut the funds for NASA’s Constellation program that would take men back to the moon. In addition, NASA ended its Space Shuttle program. Another frequent victim of lack of funding is the organization called the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, or SETI. Oftentimes, organizations like these that set out to answer fundamental questions about the universe suffer because money is typically allocated to larger government institutions, such as health care and defense. Traveling to the moon and searching for aliens may seem like a big waste of money to some people, but the truth is that these activities can effectively increase the economic growth of the country by creating jobs and producing commercial byproducts. The end of the Space Shuttle program caused 7,000 people in Florida to lose their jobs. Many of these employees performed tasks highly specific to the maintenance

and functioning of the shuttles, such as operating launch pad cranes and other machinery built exclusively for the shuttle. In addition to manual laborers, NASA also employs people with degrees that are otherwise fruitless, like those in astrobiology. The discontinuation of the shuttle program makes these degrees less valuable because of the scarcity of careers and the disproportionate number of people qualified for them. NASA’s economic effect on the nation is largely unknown, but profound. Research done by NASA scientists has led to hundreds of “spinoffs� since the 1960s. Spinoffs are commercial products invented by the agency, which include shoe insoles, ear thermometers, memory foam, cordless tools and water filters. With the intent of safely sending humans into space, NASA frequently creates devices that positively impact society. The other organization SETI is often viewed in the same light as astrology: a

pseudoscience. A pseudoscience is described as “a system of theories, assumptions, and methods erroneously regarded as scientific.� Many question the usefulness of funding programs such as SETI. While SETI may not produce as many byproducts as NASA does, it aims to answer questions about the presence of life in the universe. While this satisfies the human desire to explore, some people might say it doesn’t make much sense financially. Few economic arguments can be made to fund SETI, but the price differences between funding of health care, which was $2.8 trillion in 2012, and SETI, $2.5 million, show that the fundamental research uses up a minuscule amount of the government’s budget. Clearly, the funding for SETI is pocket change when compared with larger government institutions. While it seems that investing more in the program would adversely affect the economy by a microscopic amount, the benefits of

Studying the origins of life could lead to significant improvements in industry.

investing in SETI very much outweigh the losses because it could lead to the potential of new, revolutionizing discoveries. The University, along with 14 other universities, has recently received a five-year, $8 million grant from NASA “to study the diversity and evolution of life on Earth,� according to an article in The Daily Illini. The funding of such a project brings to mind the possible futility in pursuing research similar to other space programs, such as SETI. Just as NASA research brings about important commercialized products, studying the origins of life could lead to significant improvements in industry. It is still unknown how molecules initially combined to form life, but perhaps the process creates a large amount of energy which could potentially fuel our cities. Perhaps studying the origins of life requires a new type of instrument that could provide for better medical treatment. There is a large degree of uncertainty in attempting to study the universe’s fundamental questions, but the benefits could be extraordinary.

Anonymity no longer guaranteed REBECCA KAPOLNEK Opinions columnist

On

a typical morning last week, I pulled up CNN on my laptop to check out the news. It was then that I saw it, a story plastered across the web page that does not bode well for the average college student. The article talked about a recent hack to photos posted on Snapchat. That’s right, ladies and gentleman. The main purpose of the Snapchat app is to allow users to send friends photos and videos that will disappear within one to 10 seconds. Users trusted that their photos would vanish within a set time. However, millions of Snapchat users’ photos have been saved to a third party database. To many people’s dismay, the photos they shared could still exist. When I read the article, I immediately worried that all of the strange selfies I take and send to my best friends, and the video from the previous Wednesday night my friend snapped of me singing Spice Girls at karaoke night, could be surfacing on some web

page. However, this leak should do more than just instill fear about pictures from the past; it should be a glaring reminder about the importance of our digital presence. This past year, the words “anonymous� and “disappear� have seemed to become prevalently used by many new social media apps. In addition to Snapchat, a new app, Yik Yak, allows users to publicly share anonymous messages that supposedly cannot be traced back to the writer. Anonymity has made people more bold when posting on social media. But there are so many problems with this logic. First off, thinking that there is absolutely no way to trace something you put online back to you is extremely naive. I, too, am sometimes guilty of having a that-won’t-happen-to-me attitude, thinking that I can entirely control who can see my snaps or snap story. At least, I hope the world

will never see some of the selfies I take. But regardless of whether an application claims that it is anonymous, or that an image will disappear after a certain amount of time, there is still a way for it to be traced or found if someone wants it to be. Everything we do virtually is stored somewhere and could be retrieved by someone. Even if people haven’t figured out how to hack certain databases yet, technology is always advancing, and we never know what could happen in the future. A few weeks ago in my Business Communication class, we did an activity where we Googled our names in front of the class. At first, this activity did not make me nervous because I thought I had all of my privacy settings under control. However, I was surprised with the results. So many images, ranging from old Instagram pictures to photos of my sorority sisters, showed up. Also,

There are more ways than ever to find things once they are posted in an app or online.

every article I have ever written, old gymnastics scores and even scholarship competition results from high school were easy to find. This was the wake-up call I needed. What if the next time someone searches my name, a Snapchat selfie pops up? I would be mortified, and it would probably hurt my professional image. Students at the University need to be more aware of what they are doing online and via applications. I am not saying that we need to stop using apps like Snapchat and Yik Yak, but I am saying that we need to take just as much care with these apps as we do with other ones on which we know our posts are more permanent, like Facebook or Twitter. In this digital age, nothing is temporary. With time, technology is advancing, and there are more ways than ever to find things once they are posted in an app or online. We need to be more self-aware of our digital presence and think about how it could affect our reputations.

Next stage for human evolution longer lifespan, less reproduction BY SARAH NOLAN CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Evolutionary anthropologist Cadell Last believes humans are undergoing an evolutionary change as drastic as mankind’s transition from primates, which occurred some 5 to 8 million years ago. His theory, published earlier in 2014 in “Current Aging Science,” suggests that as early as 2050, humans will reproduce much later in life — if at all — and have an average life expectancy of 120. “I feel like the future of human life history could look a lot like an extended childhood where individuals will be able to freely engage in cultural activities without the stress of ensuring that their activities have market value,” Last wrote in an email. Last, a Ph.D. student at the Global Brain Institute in Brussels, emphasized this trend has existed since the beginning of time. “Throughout the evolutionary history of primates there have been three major life history transitions towards later sexual maturation and longer lifespan,” Last wrote in “Current Aging Science.” The first three transitions took place from animals like lemurs to monkeys, then to apes and eventually humans. However, Last believes there will soon be a fourth transition. While the three initial transitions to species that have delayed reproduction and longer life expectancies can be attributed to changes in brain size in mammalian species, Last believes that the fourth transition will be primarily cultural, not biological. He argues that before the Industrial Revolution, both fertility and mortality rates were high. The post-industrial world saw a decrease in both, a result of increased econom-

SURVIVOR Kaler’s surprise, the doctor didn’t tell her to put the recorder away and thought it was a great way to allow her husband to hear the appointment later. At that moment, Kaler decided she could trust her life with this doctor. In December, Kaler had a lumpectomy, a surgery removing only the tumor and some other tissue, at Northwestern. She then underwent radiation treatment from late February to early April at Carle Foundation Hospital. Every morning, Kaler woke up, went on a run, got her two daughters, Emily and Zoe, ready for school, ran to her radiation treatment around 7 a.m. and then went to work. She wasn’t late once and only took two days off when she had the surgery. “When she was undergoing the cancer treatments, we knew it was happening, but she was still doing everything she had to to get her job done,” said Jeff Unger, former director of the Illinois News Bureau at the University. “She wasn’t about to shirk her responsibilities.” At her radiation treatment, Kaler would see a lot of people who had already given up or let the illness dictate their lives. “To me, the more you think, ‘Oh, this is the end’ or ‘I’m going to die,’ then yeah, you probably are,” she said.

ic development and industrialization after the discovery of fossil fuels. Last refers to this as “parents choosing to invest time and energy in the ‘quality’ of offspring as opposed to the ‘quantity’ of offspring” in his theory. “As far as the developed world is concerned, these two trends associated with the demographic transition are expected to continue accelerating (i.e. reduction of fertility and mortality) as improvements in socioeconomic conditions only serve to intensify these processes,” he wrote in his theory. Last emphasizes that the size of our brain is no longer growing, but the amount of information we take in every day is. That factor, paired with today’s advanced technology, will push individuals to explore cultural vocations such as music, art, science and engineering, he said. “Robotics and artificial intelligence should completely eliminate routine, low-skill, low-education jobs within the next 20 years. They will probably eliminate many not-so-routine jobs as well. This should allow for a dramatic shift from human cultural abilities focused on mundane problem-solving tasks to human cultural abilities focused on more exciting and creative endeavors,” he claimed. Rachel Anderson, senior in LAS, said she does not believe that Last’s theory is realistic, especially the idea that technology will eliminate so many jobs. “I don’t think that people are going to have more time to spend on things they enjoy,” she said. “Even for college-educated students, jobs in many fields are getting more sparse and competition is fierce and becoming even more horrible.” “The human spirit is really strong in a positive way and really strong in a negative way.” Kaler chose the former spirit, and she trained and qualified for the Boston Marathon during her treatment. Just a few months after treatment, she ran a 3-hour-and-51-minute marathon. “I feel like when you’re young, things that are a little bit scary can seem a lot scarier, and I never felt scared or anything like that at all,” said Zoe Kaler, Robin’s oldest daughter and junior in Media. “I didn’t even realize that she had it until I was older. I guess I didn’t really realize what it meant, and I’m sure part of that was because of how strong she was.” In 2004, Kaler ran the Boston Marathon. It wasn’t anywhere near her fastest time, but it was her way of knowing she made it. All through the race, Kaler heard people cheering for someone named, “Smiley,” and she couldn’t figure out who they were yelling at. It wasn’t until she was in a spot completely by herself and she heard someone shout, “Go Smiley,” when she realized they were looking at her. “The whole time ... it was just nice to say, ‘I’m alive. I’m really alive.’ ” After the radiation, Kaler traveled to Chicago on a monthly basis so her doctor could administer a shot to her ovaries. Because Kaler was estrogen receptor positive, reducing the amount of

Second transition: Introduction of apes

Third transition:

Introduction of humans

Fourth transition (estimated 2050):

Introduction of human species with 120-year life expectancy Charles Roseman, a professor in evolutionary genetics in Anthropology, is not quick to stand by Last either. He said he believes that Last’s ideas of higher complexity, older age and a better life do not hold true for many people in the world. Roseman said he believes Last’s theory is only applicable to the economic elite. “I think that what you’re looking at is a very old argument that’s being rehashed with the latest window dressing,” he said. “This is evolutionary in the sense that we wouldn’t recognize it today; there’s a lot different ways we talk about evolution historically. This is one of them. Everything is getting better, everything is for the better and progressing, ignoring the fact that there’s a lot of variation and extinction.” Roseman said Last’s theory is no different than evolutionary theories from the 1940s and 1950s. He said that by looking at cultural publications, the future was portrayed as “a leisurely lifestyle,” where “robots clean your house and there are flying cars.”

estrogen in her body helped block the cancer cells from growing again. Eventually, Kaler grew tired of the shots, so she asked her doctor to remove her ovaries. She also wanted to rid herself of anything that could be a potential cancer-causer in the future, so she had a complete hysterectomy. For about five years, Kaler took Tamoxifen, a drug commonly used to prevent breast cancer in both women and men. Since the surgery, her cancer hasn’t come back. Yet, Kaler isn’t the only survivor in her family. Her sister had lymphoma a couple of years ago, her mom has had breast cancer twice, and her dad had a stroke a couple of months ago. Through it all, the family just figures out what they have to do to keep moving, Kaler said. So much so that both Zoe and Unger, her co-worker of 20 years, tend to forget she was ever diagnosed with the disease. “It’s not a death sentence. It’s a new path. It’s just a new path that you need to take,” Kaler said. “You thought you were going down this path, but you can get where you’re wanting to go down another path. Or maybe you’ll get somewhere better, somewhere different, and that’s okay. Just don’t fight it. Just do it.”

Kaler uses passion for running to take strides against cancer BY ALICE SMELYANSKY ASSISTANT FEATURES EDITOR

Since her undergraduate days at the University, Robin Kaler has been a runner. What started with a tiny track at the Intramural Physical Education Building has led to 5Ks, 10Ks, halfmarathons and even multiple marathons. Kaler said training for a race is a project. Some days are devoted to speed work, some days are focused on distance and some days are for rest.

So this would be no different. It was a project. In November 2002, Kaler’s mom fi nished her radiation treatment for breast cancer. That same day, at 41, Kaler, associate chancellor at the University, was diagnosed with breast cancer. “You think, ‘I’m gonna die,’ because somebody says you have cancer, that’s kind of what you think,� Kaler said. “They talk about how now it’s so treatable and everything and it’s not necessarily the worst thing

in the world to happen, but when it happens to you, it’s pretty overwhelming.� Kaler came home that evening and discussed the situation further with her husband, who was undergoing chemotherapy at the time for his own health challenges. “He had such a really good attitude himself, that the next day I thought, ‘Oh, for gosh sakes, if this is the worst thing that happens to me, I need to tough it out,’ � she said.

From then on, breast cancer became Kaler’s project. She scheduled an appointment to see a good surgeon at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago, and since her husband wasn’t feeling well from the chemo, she brought several friends with her. There were a total of seven of them when the doctor walked into the patient room, and one of her friends even carried a recorder with her. But to

McKinley works to educate students on alcohol abuse BY RACHEL BASS CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The Illini Union side of the Quad became littered with shards of glass and metal on Monday. A “junked� four-door black car made an appearance to promote the issue of irresponsible drinking on college campuses. Today, the McKinley Health Center will host its ninth annual event “Alcohol Awareness: Think Before You Drink.� The seminar will take place in the SDRP Multipurpose rooms ABC from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday’s event will have a panel discussion to educate students on alcohol and its effects. When asked what she

wants students to walk away with, said Lyssa Barth, event coordinator and graduate student in Social Work: “The education factor. We want students to ask themselves, ‘How do I drink in a way that will ensure I’m safe and my friends are safe?’ � McKinley Health Center has hosted this event since 2006. Last year, there were almost 400 students in attendance, according to Barth. The Think Before You Drink event will consist of an expert panel informing students of what happens physically, mentally and socially when alcohol is consumed.

Student volunteers will also be there to support the panel and to assist students in experiments such as pouring shots of water, myth versus fact trivia and a body versus alcohol activity. “Students are surprised when they realize they don’t actually know how big a shot is and that they’ve been pouring way more than they had to,� Barth said. Through the Alcohol Awareness event, Barth said she hopes they can keep students educated and continue

to have a fun and safe college experience. The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism suggests that the trend of college drinking is due to the circumstances of living situations — from residence halls and Greek housing occupied by different aged students to being around the corner from an 19-andover bar, the temptation is fed through resources. Based on 2012 statistics, approximately 40 percent of college students engage in binge drinking within the average month. The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism defines binge drinking as having five or more drinks per occasion.

Quick facts Binge drinking:

Volleyball tops Iowa in sloppy win BY NICHOLAS EDWARD DAVID FORTIN STAFF WRITER

Illinois’ Jocelynn Birks serves the ball during the game against Iowa at the Carver-Hawkeye Arena on Wednesday. The Illini tallied 37 hitting errors and nine service errors, which were both season highs for the team.

Neither team played pretty, but the Illinois volleyball team got the job done. No. 15 Illinois beat Iowa in five sets on Wednesday night in Iowa City, Iowa, by scores of 27-29, 25-12, 25 -23, 19-25 and 15 -11 despite playing sloppy volleyball throughout the match. The Illini tallied 37 hitting errors and nine service errors, which were both season highs for the team. The errors, in addition to an effective block from both teams, made scoring more difficult than usual throughout the match. Both teams played sloppy in the first set. Three

of the first four points of the match were on either attack errors or service errors. Illinois (13-5, 5-2 Big Ten) jumped out to an 8-5 lead before allowing Iowa (8-10, 0-7) to rally back and tie the set at nine. Iowa remained in control until a late run by the Illini brought the set even again at 24 points apiece. After ties at 25 and 26 points, the Hawkeyes took control of the set and put it away for their first set win in conference play this year. Illinois bounced back in the second set as senior outside hitter Morganne Criswell found her offensive rhythm. After playing in only one set and finishing with two attempts in a big win

Groce up against big names for Bragg ALEX ROUX Basketball columnist

It’s no secret Illinois head coach John Groce swings for the fences when he recruits. As the Illini continue to be in the conversation for some of the nation’s best hoops talent, they find themselves on recruits’ lists of schools alongside some of the most storied programs in the country. Kentucky. Kansas. UCLA. Those three basketball powerhouses are the schools the Illini are up against in the recruitment of Carlton Bragg, a skilled 6-foot-8 forward out of Villa Angela-St. Joseph High School in Cleveland. Though Bragg’s current list of options might be intimidating to Illini fans, they’ll have to get used to battling these blueblood programs for recruits as long as Groce is in charge. Kentucky, Kansas and UCLA can sell themselves pretty well. They’re on ESPN constantly. They have midnight madness and legendary arenas and dozens of lottery picks drafted into the NBA. They have banners. While Illinois is historically a good program, it doesn’t stack up with these types of programs. When Groce swings for the fences against them, he’s swinging with a stick, and the blue bloods have aluminum bats. So to have a chance with a guy like Bragg, Groce and his

staff have to go above and beyond. According to Bragg’s mentor, Michael Graves, Groce and his staff have kept up constant communication since they began recruiting him as a high school freshman. Groce’s relentless pursuit of Bragg has built up a trust and familiarity between both parties that has kept Illinois in the hunt. “Groce hangs his hat on the trust factor,� Graves said. “You know, they’ve been there from the beginning, you can trust him and they haven’t missed an AAU game in two years.� Two years. Considering many AAU teams play at least fifty games a season, you can imagine the amount of time Groce and his staff have dedicated to ensuring that Bragg

“On the in-home visit they did a very good job on their presentation.� MICHAEL GRAVES CARLTON BRAGG’S MENTOR

knows he’s a top priority. Bragg has stood out at events such as the NBPA Top 100 camp, which lets the best players in the country square off against each other. Bragg is currently ranked as the No. 18 player in ESPN’s top 100 and has drawn comparisons to Carmelo Anthony. So, where does Groce stand in the process of luring the next Melo to Champaign? He paid a visit to Bragg’s home in Ohio on

Sept. 30, a setting where Groce seems to excel. Graves said Groce carried a “much stronger tone� than some of the other coaches that had been in to visit Bragg previously. “On the in-home visit they did a very good job on their presentation,� Graves added. “Like I said, the trust factor, the familiarity with the coaches. They’ve recruited Carlton like Carlton is their top priority.� It’s in those settings that Groce must differentiate Illinois from the likes of Bill Self and John Calipari. Bragg took an unofficial visit to Kansas’ midnight madness last weekend and will take an unofficial to Kentucky’s this weekend. Illinois can’t currently compete with the spectacle of those events, so Groce must sell a vision for the future. In Bragg’s case, that vision can be aided by present results. With Bragg making his decision in the spring, this upcoming Illini basketball season has the potential to boost Illinois’ national relevancy, perhaps enough to entice Bragg. “That can help, yeah,� Graves responded when asked if on-court success for the Illini this season could potentially sway Bragg. “Everybody wants to go to a winner.� With the recent misses on elite guards Jawun Evans and Jalen Brunson, landing Bragg might seem like a long shot. But Graves insisted Bragg is seriously considering the

Illinois is 3-4 (0-2 Big Ten) at the midway point of the season. The Illini offense has been one of the lone bright spots early in the season, but the offensive line has allowed 22 sacks in the team’s first seven games. The Daily Illini sat down with offensive lineman Simon Cvijanovic to take stock of the team during the bye-week. The Daily Illini: What do you do during a bye-week? Simon Cvijanovic: Coach gave us a lot of time off just to get our feet back under us. Right now practices are a little bit shorter which will be easier on guys who have been getting a lot of reps in a lot of games. The guys who haven’t played as much are staying out there and doing extra and more realistic-look stuff that

DI: Do you feel like you have more of a drive to get back to a bowl game after having a taste of it your first two years? SC: I feel like there definitely is. Most of the team has experienced a lot of losing in the past three years, so we’re really hungry and the younger guys are too. Most college football players come from high schools that are winning programs. They know to win, they want to win, the guys who have seen a lot of losing want to win – we all want to win. DI: What are some of those cultural differences between high school and college football? SC: My high school was considered a “football high school� or a football power-

house in Ohio, although I guess every high school in Ohio thinks they’re powerhouses (laughs). But it was more of school first, football second. Here, it’s definitely football first. You put a lot more time into football and a lot more time into football than anything else in your life, so that’s definitely different. DI: Does your role change very much with a Reilly O’Toole and Aaron Bailey playing quarterback instead of Wes Lunt or is your job strictly just “protect the quarterback� regardless of who’s playing? SC: You saw what he (Aaron) did against Wisconsin. It definitely changes how we protect and how we block, because the guy can move around a little more. When he can move a little

Women’s tennis gains home advantage BY COLE HENKE CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Home court advantage will strongly favor the Illinois women’s team at this year’s USTA/ITA Midwest Regional. It will be held at the Atkins Tennis Center starting Thursday. Victory at the regional for any Illini means advancing to the USTA/ITA Indoor National Championships in Flushing Meadows, New York, the site of the US Open. The last regional champion Illinois produced was in 2012, and was the doubles pair of current senior Melissa Kopinski and Illinois alum Rachel White, a senior at the time. Kopinski is partnered with sophomore Louise Kwong this year. Kwong feels like they can have a similar result to what Kopinski had her sophomore year. “Our playing styles mesh really well. She moves a lot at the net, while I attack well from the baseline,” Kwong said. Since she is a sophomore and has played in this tournament once before, Kwong says she feels much more

relaxed because she knows what to expect. Kopinski and Kwong, along with the rest of the team and head coach Michelle Dasso, said they are also excited to have the opportunity to play such a big tournament on their home court. The team will need the advantages that home court gives as the tournament field features two Big Ten opponents and top-25 teams in No. 17 Michigan and No. 15 Northwestern. Dasso believes the biggest advantage of having the tournament at home is not having to travel. “Not having to drive five and a half hours like we did last year is going to help a lot,” Dasso said. The team’s other senior, Julia Jamieson, feels that just being able to sleep in her own bed will benefit her greatly. Jamieson is looking to take an aggressive approach as she tries to make a run in the singles bracket. “I am an aggressive tennis player, so my forehand transition game has been really solid. It helps me take that step into the court,”

Jamieson said. “My serve has also been really big this year, so I am looking to keep that up.” Another advantage to playing at home is the ability to film the team’s matches. Each indoor court at Atkins has a camera. From there, videos are put online where the players can download them. This allows for the players and coaches to study film between matches. The cameras can also live-stream the matches so family members or fans can watch the tennis game from home. This helps the families of Kwong and freshman Jade Hilton, who are both from Canada. Dasso is confident about the regional, and is really looking to just get as many matches for her players as possible. There is one other advantage that home court presents, one that Dasso feels is the most important, “The players won’t be missing class.”

Men’s tennis focused on championship foes

BY CHRISTOPHER KENNEDY STAFF WRITER

The Illinois men’s tennis team is back in action this week at the ITA Midwest Regional Championships in Ann Arbor, Mich. The winners of the tournament receive an automatic berth at November’s ITA Indoor Championships at the Billie Jean King Tennis Center, the home of the U.S. Open. After a weekend off, the Illini are rested and ready to go up against some familiar foes from around the Midwest. Four of the main draw’s top 16 seeds are Illini, and they’ll face players from Notre Dame, Big Ten heavyweight Ohio State and in-state rival Northwestern. There will be players from several other Big Ten teams too. Both Jared Hiltzik and Tim Kopinski will be playing in their first matches after the ITA All-American Championships two weeks ago. Last year, Hiltzik didn’t play in this tournament, as he automatically qualified for the ITA Indoor Championships with a quarterfinal appearance at All-Americans. Kopinski made it to the quarterfinals last year before falling to teammate Farris Gosea. Both will look to build on their performances two weeks ago, but their goals are clear. “For Jared and Tim, their

Vukic lost a hardfought match in the final round of qualifying to No. 62 Ralf Steinbach of Ohio State, who will also be at the Regional Championships. “You’re playing with guys that are in our region that we’re going to see throughout the rest of the year,” Dancer said. “It’s one of the early chances we get to see some of the new players on the other teams.” The familiar opponents will certainly be interested to see Vukic on court. The Australian freshman has put together an impressive early season, with strong showings in the Southern Intercollegiate Championships and the All-American qualifying draw. Vukic will be joined by two other Illinois freshmen in Ann Arbor. Aron Hiltzik is entered in the main draw while Toshiki Matsuya will have to go through qualifying. In his last outing at Alabama’s Four-in-the-Fall, Matsuya had a rough first match, but bounced back and played well in his final three matches. “From Alabama, I think

20 kills and 14 digs. The third set was hotly contested. The Illini and the Hawkeyes went back and forth, finishing the set with six ties. Iowa closed the gap to a single point, but the Illini were able to put the set away. The fourth set was more of the same for Illinois. The team recorded 11 errors in the set. After falling behind increase his familiarity with the program when he takes his official visit to the Illinois campus, which has yet to be scheduled. Graves said that between the recent unofficial visits and Bragg’s high school season coming up, they haven’t had a chance to schedule an Illini official just yet, but that they will make it to campus at some point. Groce’s dedication has gotten him far with Bragg,

I’ve improved a lot, just executing my patterns better and redefining my purpose for every shot,” Matsuya said. “Executing a little better, a little bit deeper shot, a little bit more to the corner kind of thing, changing the direction of the ball better, things like that.” Matsuya said that the break from competition allowed the team to train harder because they didn’t have to worry about resting for tournaments. After a couple weeks of tournament-free practice, Brian Page is ready to get back on the court and continue his recovery from a broken wrist and a stress reaction in his foot, injuries he suffered last season. In the interim between tournaments, Page said he is getting more of his game back and focusing on getting back into a competitive mindset. “I’m hitting two-handers now and I can use my backhand, so that’s a big part of my game that’s starting to come back more and more every day,” Page said. “The main thing I’m going to be focusing on is the mental side of the game. Being aware and making good decisions in points and staying in the right mindset to compete.”

Her accomplishments last year included leading the team in event victories and total points. “ I wou ld consider myself a leader. Being a senior, I’ve been here for four years, I feel me and the other seniors are on the same level as far as leadership,” Meng said. “(Staying) focused and in the moment is the most important thing. If we do that as a team, we can be successful.” Sophomore Gabbie Stecker is looking to continue where she left off last season. Continued success could mean more school records for the sophomore. Currently, Stecker holds the ARC pool record for fastest individual times in the 500 and 1000 freestyle and 200 butterfly. “Freshman year was really fun, and I learned the ropes,” Stecker said. “Every year is different, so it’ll be interesting to see what we can do this year.”

The match came down a decisive fifth set. As was the case throughout the match, it was back and forth throughout. There were seven ties and three lead changes

on the way to a win for the Illini. Illinois ended the set on a 5-1 run and — after starting the season 0-3 in five-set matches — picked up its first five set win of the season.

State of football program leads to poor gameday experience ERIK PRADO Sports columnist

It

was the morning of gameday and we were trying to find the parking lot in Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin, we being myself and fellow Daily Illini football reporters. We had left our hotel nearly an hour before, under the assumption we’d be all right and arrive to the stadium with time to spare. Nope. As the car got closer to the stadium, nearly every street was blocked by police. It was difficult enough trying to drive; throngs of Badgers fans were darting in the street and disobeying signals to walk. The scene on gameday in Madison puts Champaign and “Block� to shame. Mind you, this was for a game against Big Ten bottom feeder Illinois and in what is considered a down year for the Badgers. If

Madison was this rowdy given those circumstances, how crazy would it get facing Michigan State or Ohio State? The excitement continued well into the night. I even saw a group on a trolley-like vehicle, only they were peddling to make it move. I, of course, added it to my weekend-long Snapchat story. Now imagine the gameday scenes at Mississippi State, Florida State and Ole Miss, the top-three teams in the AP Top 25. Those would put Wisconsin to shame. Yet I am not surprised. It never feels like there’s a home football game when I make the walk from my Urbana residence to Memorial Stadium on gamedays, especially for 11 a.m. kickoffs. Everyone is still sleeping off those hangovers. I don’t pass rows of fans lining the sidewalks. I don’t pass store lots turned tailgate lots filled to the teeth, with police officers standing guard. Bars are not overflowing with patrons. There is no loud music or loud school pride chants. I don’t feel the

excitement. Look, Illinois football is in a bad place. I am not the first, nor the last, who will talk brash about them. But a continually bad football program runs the risk of further alienating students and fans from the football team. That fan attention has shifted toward basketball, and rightfully so. John Groce is as entertaining to listen to as it is to watch his up-and-coming team. Nationally ranked recruits are starting to commit. Renovations to State Farm Center will further enhance the experience of watching a winning team. As for the fan experience at Memorial Stadium? Deadspin put it best on Nov. 30, 2013, “The Illinois Student Section is the Saddest-est.� Block I should be given a parade for its efforts, but not everyone is in Block I. They’ll only show if a winning team is on the field. By no means am I suggesting there is some easy fix. I am well aware that this is all a cycle and depends if the football team

Excitement over athletics should not have to wait until November to start and then have to wait until March to peak. Even Duke,

long the king of “basketball only schools� has built a football program that generates excitement. It will take years to build a winning program, and I won’t be here when that happens. But when it does, I’ll just open up Snapchat to see the many 10 second snaps of students finally having fun during Illinois

football games. Until then, I’ll continue my mile-and-a-half walk to Memorial Stadium through an empty Campus Town, most likely listening to CHVRCHES.

Men’s cross country focus on invitational BY MATT GERTSMEIER CONTRIBUTING WRITER

With a two-week break from competition, the Illinois men’s cross-country team is set to race in the Wisconsin Adidas Invitational on Friday. This will be the Illini’s toughest meet so far, going up against 19 nationally ranked opponents in the 38-team field, including conference opponents No. 9 Wisconsin, No. 11 Michigan and No. 23 Indiana. Facing an extremely competitive field, the Illini remain confident in their abilities to perform at a high level on Friday. “We know we’re strong, we know we’re good, so now it’s a matter of showing it,” senior Jannis Toepfer said. “That doesn’t mean going out doing anything crazy; it means being consistent and doing what we’ve done all season.” The group running for Illinois this Friday at Wisconsin will consist of juniors Ian Barnett, Paul Zeman and Liam Markham, and seniors Brendan McDonnell, Bryce Basting and Toepfer. The Illini have had some recent success on the course, having competed there for the past two years. Last season, the team finished 19th in the Wisconsin Adidas Invitation-

al. The team looks to build on that and improve its finish this year. “I think we will perform better than last year,” Basting said. “We’ve been training like mad men. We’re walking into Wisconsin with a lot of confidence and a chip on our shoulder.” Illinois has utilized its long break from race action and has concentrated solely on Friday’s meet. At practice, the team has worked on race-specific drills and cut down on the volume, while increasing the intensity. The runners have felt that intensity and look to carry that into Friday’s meet. “Intensity is pretty high,” Toepfer said. “We’ve been preparing ourselves to run hard to compete with these teams; it’s been the focus all along.” On Friday, Illinois will also be sending a group to the Bradley ‘Pink’ Classic. Sophomores Will Brewster and Ryan Burgoon, and freshmen Garrett Lee, Alex Gold and Alex Notton will race for the Illini at Bradley.

Women’s golf aims high for weekend invitational BY LUCAS WRIGHT CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The Illinois women’s golf team will be back in action this weekend as the team heads to Noblesville, Indiana, for the Hoosier Fall Invitational. Illinois is coming off a big win at Iowa City, Iowa, helped by the team’s 2-over-par fi nal round, which was the best round posted by any team all tournament. This weekend’s tournament will feature a different format for the Illini, as the fi rst round will consist of stroke play, and

the fi nal two rounds will be match play. This format should work well for the Illini, as they have been in the top two in birdies in each of their previous three tournaments. Match play breaks the round down hole-by-hole, meaning individual birdies are all the more important. The Illini have spent the week adjusting to the different tournament format and according to sophomore Stephanie Miller, they’re feeling very confident heading in to the weekend.

“I think, as a whole, all of us have been very competitive this week, and it shows that we’re going to have that competitive edge against whoever we play,” Miller said. “It doesn’t really matter who we play. It just comes down to each hole and how we play that hole.” The team has been playing well recently, especially freshman Chayanid Prapassarangkul, who put up 3-under par in her fi nal round at Iowa City, the best individual round of any player at the tournament. Prapassarang-

kul rebounded from her rough fi rst two rounds to jump 30 spots on the leaderboard. Coach Renee Slone is looking to see more of the same out of Prapassarangkul heading into this weekend. “(At Iowa City), she did a great job of mentally not letting that fi rst day distract her,” Slone said. “She was able to look at Sunday as a new opportunity. Moving forward, it is a great opportunity to build off of.” The Illini will be led by Dana Gattone and Miller, who fi nished fi rst and fi fth, respective-

ly, at Iowa City. Gattone looks to lower her team, leading 74.88 stroke average, and Miller looks to bring her scoring average back down below 75. Illinois will face off against conference rival Indiana, along with Illinois State, Fresno State and Ball State. The Illini will look to climb up the Golfweek rankings, as they currently sit at 41st in the nation.

Illini hockey returns to face off against Michigan-Dearborn BY DANIEL DEXTER STAFF WRITER

After a weekend off, The Illinois hockey returns to the ice to face off against Michigan-Dearborn at the Big Pond. With several members missing time with injuries, the Illini used the week off to get back to full strength. “A lot of guys with bumps and bruises are still kind of wrapped up,” goalie John Olen said. “I think people are trying to get back in for this weekend, and that’s good. It’s going to be nice getting some of those guys back.” Head coach Nick Fabbrini expects Michigan-Dearborn to be the team’s toughest challenge of the year. The Wolverines typically have talented offensive players from semi-professional teams. Despite the challenge the Wolverines pose, defenseman William Nunez believes the Illini have an advantage because the Wolverines have never played at the Big

Pond, which is bigger than a typical ice rink. “This is their fi rst time ever playing in Champaign,” Nunez said. “It’s going to be different for them because of our rink, so it will probably take a period for them to adjust. Nunez believes the defense has played well this season, but it needs to maintain its consistency throughout the two-game series. The team focused on playing in the defensive zone this past week in preparation for Michigan-Dearborn. Fabbrini said the key to the game will be if his team can create turnovers on the defensive side and maintain control of the puck. “When we are skating and creating turnovers, that’s when we are at our best. We want to have the puck,” Fabbrini said. “So on the big ice, if we can’t maintain possession through the zone, we want to get into good areas to create turnovers and get

the puck that way.” The team is hoping to get more fans out to the games this weekend by hosting Greek Appreciation for the fans. Olen, a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, said the Greek system is a good way to get the word out about Illinois hockey and having more fans at games elevates the play of the team. The Illini hope to get as many fans to attend as possible for their last home series before they start taking on conference competition. “Our focus is just playing solid in and out every weekend,” Olen said. “We are hitting our grind now. We have Michigan-Dearborn, and then a bunch of our league games coming up. This is our last kind of tune-up weekend before we start playing the real big teams in our conference.”
