C-U plans Ebola safety measures BY ALI BRABOY STAFF WRITER

University Laboratory High School in Urbana is now over $1 million in debt due to an accounting error.

Audit filed for UI high school BY ABIGALE SVOBODA STAFF WRITER

Due to an accounting error that charged salaries to a closed account for several years, the University Laboratory High School has accumulated nearly $1 million of debt. Jeff Walkington , director of the high school, said they are still not sure how the error happened.

The University fi led a request for an audit in September, which is now underway. School officials hope the audit will tell more than just how the error occurred. “We hope that from this audit we will figure out how the error happened and also how fi nances can be better monitored,” Walkington said.

The audit will eventually reveal the error, but will not be complete for several months. In the meantime, the school created a budget task force, composed of school officials, to find where the school can make cuts and where it can generate new funds, Walkington said. Keith Marshall, associ-

ate provost of the University said the Office of the Provost is working with the high school to create a defi cit reduction plan aimed at fi nding ways to “increase revenue or decrease cost without affecting the quality of students’ education.” The high school was originally funded by the

In many ways, local medical officials believe Champaign County is prepared for the possibility of Ebola cases in the area. Carle Foundation Hospital has had a number of emergency management plans in place for years, which address events such as pandemic occurrences, according to Dr. Daniel Bronson-Lowe, infection preventionist at Carle. The Ebola epidemic, which is a rare and deadly disease caused by infection from an Ebola virus strain, is currently the largest outbreak of the virus in histo-

The Illinois Poison Center will be taking calls to the Ebola hotline, which was activated Thursday, and runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Spokesperson for the Illinois Department of Public Health Sheila Porter said the hotline was created because of the concern surrounding Ebola. The hotline is a customer service for Illinois residents to help them get a better understanding of the infectious disease. As of Oct. 21 the hotline has received around 400 calls, since it launched. Porter said the hotline will continue as long the public has a need for it. The hotline can be reached at 1-800-8893931.

Five Americans have been affected by the Ebola virus. “The current outbreak in West Africa is the result of several concurrent events, including the geographical spread of the virus among fruit bats, the practice of butchering animals which carry the virus, ritual burial practices, urban poverty, poor health care access and inadequate commu-

Symptoms may appear anywhere from two to 21 days after exposure to the Ebola virus; the average is eight to 10 days. Recovery from the virus depends on clinical care and the patient’s immune response. People who recover from an Ebola infection develop antibodies that last at least 10 years.

Republican House candidate details views to students BY TEA LOJANICA STAFF WRITER

SONNY AN THE DAILY ILLINI

Kristin Williamson, Republican candidate for the 103rd representative seat, answers the questions of University students at the Illini Union on Tuesday night.

DAILYILLINI, DAILYILLINISPORTS

INSIDE

Kristin Williamson, Republican candidate for the 103rd representative seat, answered questions from University students in a forum Tuesday night regarding her campaign, state policies and the University. The Illinois Student Senate sponsored the event in the Illini Union to increase student political participation and knowledge of the Nov. 4 midterm elections. Williamson said her main goals as the potential House representative would be to create more jobs and a better state of the economy for Illinois. She said several things she would do include reforming the workers’ compensation system and making it easier for people to start small businesses. Students asked questions pri-

marily concerning student debt and student loans. Williamson said she supports keeping interest rates on student loans down, but also wants to create a healthy, friendly, business environment in the community. She said she does not support raising the minimum wage in Illinois. Williamson said the ongoing pension crisis is the biggest issue related to campus. “This makes the University not as competitive as other Big Ten schools and makes it harder to recruit top tier faculty,” she said. Williamson also took a stance against for-profit MAP grant funding and said she would support a bill that would no longer allow the grants to be used at forprofit universities. She stated her support for various student interest issues in the community, including first-time

homebuyer tax credit, medical amnesty and the decriminalization of marijuana. Garrett Hill, Williamson’s spokesman, said the campaign intended for the event to be an opportunity to engage with student voters. “The University of Illinois is the economic engine of ChampaignUrbana,” he said. “The student body could sway the election.” William J. Lynch, Committee on Community and Governmental Affairs chairman and graduate student, said the committee originally asked Carol Ammons, Democratic candidate for the seat, to participate in a debate with Williamson for the event. However, due to scheduling conflicts, Ammons was unable to attend.

C-U emergency services conduct drills

BY CAMILLE MURRAY STAFF WRITER

The Urbana Fire Department recently began preparing responders to deal with the possibility of earthquake effects in the area. On Oct. 13, the Urbana Fire Department conducted training drills for earthquake-related issues, such as trench and rope rescues. Capt. Dave Wisher of the Urbana Fire Department said the department’s technical rescue team has also been performing scenario-based team training to practice responding to the effects of earthquakes, such as how to deal with confi ned spaces, high angles and collapses. “The chances of an earthquake occurring in Champaign County are not very high,” said Timothy Larson, senior geophysicist at the Illinois State Geological Survey. “But the chance of us feeling the effects of an earthquake from other regions in the area is much higher.” The county’s proximity to the New Madrid and Wabash Valley seismic zones, which stem into southern Illinois, increases the possibility of nearby earthquakes disturbing the area. The

latest significant earthquake incident in the Midwest occurred on April 18, 2008, when a 5.4-magnitude earthquake, with an epicenter in southern Illinois, was felt in central Illinois and nearby states. “The New Madrid earthquakes that we know of in our history have been the largest ones in the central United States, so people are concerned about a repeat of those earthquakes that happened in the New Madrid area,” Larson said. Wisher said infrastructure could cause further problems if an earthquake were to occur because buildings in the area are not built to withstand earthquakes. Still, John Barker, chief of the training and development division at the Champaign Fire Department, said Champaign County is overall well-prepared for earthquakes and other crises. Barker said both the Champaign Fire Department and Urbana Fire and Rescue Services are part of the Mutual Aid Box Alarm System, a response system for emergency situations. “Because we’re a part of the Mutual Aid Box Alarm System, we can call on resources from all around the state,” Barker said.

“They have teams positioned in Decatur, Danville, Charleston, Bloomington, Springfield — all over the place.” Both Champaign and Urbana are part of Mutual Aid Box Alarm System division 28. Champaign is in charge of the hazardous material response team, which deals with problems concerning the handling of dangerous substances. Urbana manages the technical rescue team, which deals with problems such as building collapses and people being trapped in confi ned spaces. “You’ve got the best of both worlds, per say, by having two teams in the local area,” Barker said. “So if an earthquake did happen, and we had a building collapse, or infrastructure failure that would cause a chemical spill or leak, we have teams here that can deal with it.” Barker said that if an earthquake were to occur, the fi re department’s primary concern would be life safety. They would also be faced with other issues, he said, including securing utilities, protecting people from broken electrical and gas lines and checking on the welfare of those in

His department is also working on setting up further team training in November. Even though the chances of an earthquake are slim, Wisher

Ebola treatment centers to open in Texas BY BILL HANNA AND GORDON DICKSON TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

DALLAS — UT Southwestern Medical Center will staff one of two designated biocontainment centers in Texas, providing specially trained workers and equipment to treat Ebola and other infectious diseases, Gov. Rick Perry said on Tuesday. The hospital will provide doctors, Methodist Health System will provide a building in Richardson and Parkland Hospital in Dallas will provide a laboratory, lab and pharmacy technicians as well as nurses for the unit. The second containment hospital will be at University of Texas Medical Branch Galveston. Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, where the first Ebola death in the nation occurred Oct. 8, was not included in the partnership. Perry said Presbyterian “had paid a heavy price” in the battle against the virus — two of its nurses are infected. Nurse Nina Pham’s condition improved from fair to good Tuesday, according to the National Institutes of Health Clinic Center in Bethesda, Maryland, where she is being treated. Nurse Amber Vinson reportedly is doing well. Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said “it would be inhumane and not in their best interests nor in anyone else’s best interests” for Presbyterian to continue treating Ebola

patients. In a press release, Texas Health said officials they would continue to provide input, using their experience. Both Presbyterian and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have been criticized for their handling of Thomas Eric Duncan, the Liberian Ebola patient who died at the hospital. “As the first U.S. hospital to face the challenge of both diagnosing and treating Ebola patients, Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas will continue to share our learnings with health officials at all levels of government, our fellow hospitals and the broader health care community,” a statement from the hospital says. The Methodist Campus for Continuing Care in Richardson has empty beds and space for safely taking protective gear on and off. Up to two new Ebola patients could be admitted by Wednesday if necessary, said Dr. Sam Bagchi, chief medical information officer for Methodist Health System. “This is a fully contained facility, just like Nebraska and Emory,” Bagchi said. The only biocontainment centers for Ebola patients are the biocontainment unit at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, the Nebraska Biocontainment Patient Care Unit in Omaha, the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, and St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula, Montana. Perry said at a news confer-

ence in Dallas Tuesday that the goal in Texas is “to rival the most advanced facilities in the world.” Combined with Dallas County’s ability to test for Ebola, having two dedicated units to treat for Ebola is significant for Texas, said County Judge Clay Jenkins. Brett Giroir, director of the Texas Task Force on Infectious Disease Preparedness and Response, said the “novel, collaborative partnership” between the three health care groups fills a pressing need. “Only four days ago, we delivered our initial recommendations — the most critical and immediately necessary is the establishment of at least two Ebola, or more appropriately, two bio-containment treatment centers, trained and equipped to provide the highest levels of specialized clinical care and healthcare worker protection for Ebola patients and potentially other patients in the future with similar high consequence infectious diseases,” Giroir said. The task force also made recommendations about an Ebola triage protocol in hospitals. The protocol is under review at the Texas Department of State Health Services. “Our capabilities encompass experts in biocontainment and are reinforced by a history of solving scientific and public health issues through fundamental and applied research as well as the clinical care we provide patients,” UT South-

tion,” Palinkas said. Carle wants to expand the amount of screening it is doing by identifying people with Ebola symptoms who have had recent travel history to the affected regions or anyone who may have had contact with an individual that might have contracted the Ebola virus, Bronson-Lowe said. Bronson-Lowe said Carle is also working on developing groups who would care specifically for patients with the Ebola virus. The hospital is aiming to create a dedicated team, which would limit the amount of people exposed to the patient. They are also identifying which isolation rooms they would use if there was a potential case, he said. The rooms Carle has set

up are based on the CDC standards, and Carle is prepared to use any number of the rooms if necessary, Bronson-Lowe said. Palinkas said in the case of a major outbreak on campus, an Infectious Disease Work Group at the University would recommend Ebola initiatives to the Chancellor. “It’s been almost 40 years we’ve known about (Ebola).” Bronson-Lowe said. “There have been roughly 30 outbreaks in that time that have involved humans; most of them have been relatively small.” The difference this time, he said, is that the disease got into a major urban center and was not immediately contained, which made it extremely difficult to stop the virus from spreading.

DEFERMENT being deferred. With the new policy in place, all applicants will be considered together, which will remove the need for deferrals. Walsh said she thought the University was not sending the best message to students who were deferred. Since the number of early applicants was rising, she said, the University was forced to defer qualified students. “It seems to us that it would be more fair that we’re telling everybody, ‘You’re not going to hear until February,’ ” Walsh said. Lisa R. Micele, director of college counseling at the University of Illinois Laboratory High School, said it is much better for students to hear back in February with the rest of the applicants, rather than be deferred in December and have to wait until the February date. “The deferral was confusing and often turned students off as they were feeling unwanted or confused as to what the deferral meant. Students often believe that deferrals are glorified denials,” Micele said in an email.

The Champaign Fire Department began training the force to cover Ebola virus responses Tuesday, and will continue throughout the week, according to a press release. The Champaign Fire Department is collaborating with the Champaign Urbana Public Health District, Urbana Fire Department, Pro Ambulance and Arrow Ambulance to prepare for a possible Ebola case in the area. “If something does occur, and a case does arrive in our community, I think that the processes that we have However, some students feel the early application period was a useful way to let applicants get a head start on the process. Elliot Lee, freshman in LAS, said he thought the early application period was beneficial in separating the students who really want to attend the University from those who think of it as a safety school. “I think the early admission process was a good way to find out who really cared,” he said. Micele added that the later acceptance date could have negative effects for students who would have been accepted early. Since the later date would delay their possible acceptance by a couple of months, she said students would have to apply to more universities in case they were not accepted to the University of Illinois. Other students, like Amy Narotsky, senior in ACES, believe the new system will benefit the admissions process. “If there’s one deadline, then everyone finds out at the same time and then people can stop freaking out in October whether they’re hearing back from the early admissions deadlines,” she said.

The University hopes the new policy will reduce anxiety and confusion over deferrals, and will increase the number of students who ultimately choose to attend the University. “If they’re admitted, hopefully there won’t be that sour taste of ‘well, I was sort of second-mind in that pool,’ which really wasn’t the case,” Walsh said. She also said the Feb. 13 deadline still leaves plenty of time for accepted students to decide whether to enroll, since many students wait until late April to make a final decision on where to attend college. Walsh said there is some nervousness among the admissions faculty over the changes, but overall there is agreement that this seems to be what is best for the University and for the students. Lisa R.

EDITORIAL Admission changes make Illinois less competitive

W

hen the students who applied to attend the University for the 2015-2016 academic year receive their admissions decision letters, each of them will know immediately whether they were accepted. Unlike in previous years, no prospective students will be deferred to a wait list. Additionally, prospective students no longer have the option to be notified of their admission early. This year, there is only one application deadline (Dec. 1) and all prospective students will receive word of their status on the same date (Feb. 13). While these changes to the admissions process were made with good intentions — to prevent students from feeling less valued than others and therefore deciding to attend another school — we think they will do more harm than good for the University and the students interested in attending it. The biggest problem we see with the aforementioned changes is that they hinder prospective students’ ability to plan for their futures. Senior year of high school can be a stressful time for many students, and many students who intend to go to college put in a lot of time and planning in terms of their applications. Many submit their applications early and therefore should be able to reap the benefits of receiving decisions earlier. Before, students had the option to receive notification of their admittance to the University by mid-December at the earliest, giving them nearly five full months to weigh their choices and look at other institutions before the May 1 decision deadline. The December notification option also informed prospective students of their admissions status early enough that they could still apply to many other institutions if they were deferred or denied by the University. On the flip side, the early notification could also save students the hassle of needlessly wasting time and money on applications to institutions they were less interested in attending. Unfortunately, because of the changes to the admissions process, prospective students can no longer enjoy those benefits. Our University is competitive, and it’s unlikely that students would apply to it without having a back-up plan if they didn’t get in. As such, they should have the option to know ahead of time if they should pursue that back-up plan. Additionally, many other reputable Big Ten schools, such as Northwestern and the University of Michigan, still offer December decisions, which could potentially harm our University. For example, if a student didn’t want to spend his or her last semester of high school applying to universities and ironing out details, said student might choose to apply to institutions that notify of admittance status in December, regardless of interest in our University. Overall, we feel that making these changes to the admissions process creates more challenges than benefits. While one admission date and one pile of applications might be easier for administrators to sift through, it has the potential to hinder students’ decisions to attend or apply to the University.

We hope that campus is swimming in orange and blue today for Wear Orange Wednesday and Spirit Day — and, ideally, we’d love to see these colors across campus for the rest of the week. Among the other fun that is to come this week is the Illini Block Party and the Homecoming Parade, both on Friday evening, and we can’t forget the football game bright and early on Saturday. Sure, we may be at the bottom of the Big Ten rankings, but in our insanely biased opinion, we are still number one. Per yesterday’s editorial, let’s show some Illini spirit!

Nothing makes us happier than a feel-good story — and that is exactly the case with the story of a newlywed couple in New York.

Ekso, a battery-powered robotic exoskeleton, was used to assist Ficarra in the walk toward his beautiful bride. While technological innovations can often scare us with their immense capabilities, they can also allow for amazing, life-changing things to happen. Happy honeymooning!

Homecoming: The original social network CAMRON OWENS Opinions columnist

U

niversity of Illinois Homecoming celebrations began in 1910 to attract past alumni back to the school for a football game against a rival team. This created a long-standing tradition at the University, giving alumni an excuse to visit their former home, reconnect with old friends and celebrate the memories they made on campus. But, today, one might ask, why should Homecoming matter to us in the age of social networking? In today’s world, Homecoming could easily be seen as a thing of the past. With social media and the Internet, Homecoming could seem unnecessary. People are easily able to stay connected with one another and the University through websites like Facebook and Twitter long after they graduate. But in the pre-Internet world, it made sense for Homecoming to be a large event that many looked forward to and attended. Obviously, there were no social

network sites to keep people connected. But despite our relatively new ability to maintain connections, Homecoming remains important, as it always will. The connections one has with their school and returning to it run deeper than social networking sites ever could. Homecoming has become a tradition that unites us more deeply and in a different way than most social networks. It lets us share a face-to-face experience and celebrate our school with classmates and former students. Another bonus: I don’t have to sift through countless selfies that get posted “just because.� Homecoming brings people of all ages together to celebrate the University. While we may all come from different places around the world and work in different industries, we can all unite as one to celebrate the campus that made each of us who we are. Gatherings like these are a rarity in today’s world. Once it has brought us together, Homecoming allows us to share stories and memories with one another, face-toface. I have always associated the Homecoming atmosphere with school spirit, nostalgia

and pride, which creates a welcoming and fun environment unrivaled by a website that we often check on a glowing computer screen when we’re bored. I’ve been coming to the University of Illinois Homecoming events with my father, an Illinois alumnus, since I was young. He would always show me around the University and tell me about his time here as a student. We would watch the parade, and I would marvel at all of the different clubs and groups the University had to offer, dreaming that I would one day be a part of this institution. Now, as a University student, I’ve made my own memories in these places. As I look forward to celebrating Homecoming yearly as a current student, I am also excited to be able to return for the event after I graduate. While I can scroll though posts and pictures from my campus experience, Homecoming will give me an opportunity to fully reflect on my time at the University. About a month ago I went to my hometown’s Homecoming event. There was a parade, a football game and gatherings for former classes around town. Being an alumnus, rather than a student, reminded

me how different my life was before college. Sure, there are plenty of statuses and pictures posted from high school classmates, especially for the social media trend #ThrowbackThursday, but being there and retracing the steps I once walked as a high school student gave me an experience that social media cannot provide. By returning to my old school, football field and friends, I saw a different perspective of my high school. Being older and having experienced more academically and socially, I realized just how small and simple things are in high school and how many of the things that I thought of as important then do not matter to me now. Reflecting on this part of my past made me realize how someday I will probably look back on college in a similar way. Homecoming is an event that is still relevant and rewarding even in today’s digital world. It is a time when everyone is in the same place, connecting and reconnecting in ways that cannot be done with a computer.

Students boast diverse forms of intelligence KAANAN RAJA Opinions columnist

I

n my LAS 101 Freshman Seminar class, you can find an assortment of students fit for “The Breakfast Club:� There’s the boy who sits three seats behind me who can solve Calculus II derivatives in his head, but can’t seem to draw a simple stick figure, the girl who always forgets her pencil and even sometimes where class is located, but can start a riveting conversation with anyone she meets; and me — with my knack for tripping over anything solid and my odd ability to quote any sitcom television show for hours on end. Despite our different abilities, I know one thing: Every single one of us is intelligent in our own way. People usually associate high grade point averages and honor rolls with intelligence. However, intelligence can be seen differently by each individual. When looking up the word “intelligent,� one can find a definition that reads, “having or showing the ability to easily learn or understand things or to deal with new or difficult situations.� Surely, this definition can’t be limited only to the number of cities you memorize for

your Western civilization class or whether you can solve the daily crossword puzzle in the newspaper. I believe everyone is intelligent in their own unique way. The wonderful thing about intelligence is that it knows no bounds; it goes much further than “street smarts� vs. “school smarts.� What makes someone intelligent can be what they’re passionate about, what they understand or simply what they’re good at. And some researchers agree with me. Notable American psychologist Howard Gardner first formulated this with his theory of multiple intelligences in his book “Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences.� This theory states that there are actually nine different types of intelligence that can manifest in an individual. Since then, this theory has gained incredible attention and accreditation within the field of education and in psychology books. While this can include intelligence forms in such things as math and reading, it also includes unconventional types of intelligence. Intelligence forms such as intrapersonal, having self-awareness, and kinesthetic, having strong body control, are often overlooked types of intelligences that exist among people like you and me. This is not to say that we are all on the same level of intel-

ligence, but rather, we each have a strong suit in a specific type of intelligence. Your ability to speak a foreign language well after simply living in a country for a couple of months shows incredible linguistic intelligence, while another’s ability to recall and sing any song or melody shows strong musical intelligence. Bruce McCandliss, psychology professor at Vanderbilt University, who has published multiple studies on the subject, describes this well. “A lot of people have this intuition that if you’re bad at one thing, then you’re going to be bad at other things,� he said. “We should think of all children as a mosaic of things that they’re exceptional at and things they might struggle with.� The idea that there are multiple types of intelligences could upset “book smart� individuals with A’s scrawled across their math tests and awards lined up against their mantel. Even more, this idea could anger those who believe that actual intelligence is only for people who know how to live in the “real world� — “street smart� people. Those who disagree with this idea should realize that this does not discount the idea that “book smarts� or “street smarts� aren’t important. If anything, both are incorporated into Gardner’s theory. It’s simply stating that the idea of

being intelligent doesn’t have to be reserved for the few. When we reserve the word “smart� for people that meet our conventional standards of intelligence, we discount those who simply express their intelligence in other ways — often making them feel inferior. Students on campus might experience this feeling of rejection if they didn’t meet the specific types of intelligence standards that some classes call for. For instance, an art major needing to take a statistics class to fulfill a general education requirement, or a computer science major needing to take Rhet 101: College Writing I — both can feel inferior about themselves if they don’t reach the caliber that students in that major reach. That is why it is so important to stress the idea that there are multiple types of intelligence — each student has so much to offer at our university. To discount one of them would be to throw away their abilities. Instead, let’s incorporate the notion that intelligence is not exclusive, but expansive. Like most things, the beauty of intelligence lies in its diversity. Just like you, me and my LAS 101 class, intelligence is as unique as we all are.

Krannert Center hosts China’s National Acrobats BY BRITTNEY NADLER STAFF WRITER

Juggling drums with their feet, kicking bowls while riding unicycles, diving through hoops and contorting are only a few of the acts the National Acrobats of the People’s Republic of China will be performing Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. “This group is traveling to the U.S. right now, so we’re glad to welcome them on tour,� said Bridget Lee-Calfas, advertising and publicity director for Krannert. “There is something so enchanting about circus art. It’s such an old tradition and one that we all can feel familiar with at some level.� Columbia Artists Management Inc. is managing the troupe and has worked with the University before, Lee-Calfas said. The performances they sent here in the past were “incredibly popular,� which led Krannert to book the National Acrobats. To become a National Acrobat, talent scouts choose young acrobats to train at the Institute for Acrobatic Schooling, Training, and Repertoire in Beijing at age six. They work six days a week and spend half of the school day training. They begin by

learning how to do a handstand and then advance in areas of tumbling, flexibility and dance. More than 50 teachers work with 500 students, and after 10 years of practice, only a select few are chosen to actually perform for the company. “Having a company come internationally ... they’re able to share not only what they do, but something about Chinese culture as well. This company is really going to blow people away with incredible acrobatics,� LeeCalfas said. Although the art has been around for thousands of years, the company was established in 1951 and has performed in Germany, Turkey, Taiwan, Singapore, Brazil, Mexico, Israel and Chile, among others. Cirque Peking is a cultural event for LAS Honors students to attend for free. This is the first event of its kind that more than 50 honors students will attend, said Dr. Kirsten Bartels, director of LAS Honors. “We really want to broaden the horizons and experience different cultures that will impact our students, and we thought this was a great idea,� Bartels said. “We decided rather than

For ten bucks, you can go see some world class performances and productions.�

Increased risk of sexual assault in fall semester in party culture BY BRITTNEY NADLER STAFF WRITER

It’s called the Red Zone — the period of time at the start of the school year when most college sexual assaults occur. Although the time period is debated, ranging from the first six weeks of school to any time between Labor Day and Thanksgiving, more than half of all campus sexual assaults occur between August and November. During a time when thousands of students are living on their own for the first time and are exposed to a new party culture, students are more vulnerable than ever for an attack, according to Molly McLay, assistant director of the Women’s Resources Center. “The issue isn’t with the behavior of the first year students — the issue is with these people in power who create the party scene, who create the bar culture,� she said. “that is created to prey on the vulnerability and lack of information that students coming in may have.� According to The Campus Sexual Assault Study by the U.S. Department of Justice in 2007, freshmen and sophomore women are more likely than upperclassmen to be assaulted. McLay expressed that this does not equate to responsibility. Just because someone does not have the knowledge of assault does not mean they should be more likely to be attacked. “A lot of the focus is on how do we teach women how to not be vulnerable in those situations,� McLay said. “The real change is going to occur when we shut down this party culture that’s set

Blind Summit’s puppeteers use dry, sarcastic and sometimes very adult humor as well as snappy improvisation to bring the character of Moses to life, Down said. Both Moses and the puppeteers break the third wall by interacting and joking with each other during the performance, making Moses seem more like an actor than a man-operated puppet. This is, in Down’s opinion, what makes “The Table� so unique. “Our work is very char-

up to get people in the door.� First-year students are also still signing up for FYCARE and may not have any knowledge about sexual assault, said Alex Nelson, graduate assistant at the Women’s Resources Center and a graduate student in Social Work. “I think that’s usually the first instance where people

get to learn about sexual assault in a formal setting, in a space designed purely to talk about sexual assault,� Nelson said. According to the report, fraternity men are more likely to be perpetrators while sorority women are more likely to be assaulted than non-Greek members. Those in Greek life tend to drink more, which puts them at a higher risk for assault. On campus bars, alcohol plays a large role in assaults. According to McLay, when someone is buying drinks for another person, there can be an expectation that the receiver is obligated to hook up with that person. “You feel like you can’t say no,� she said. “I’ve certainly had people try to buy me drinks at bars, and I felt

weirded out and didn’t have an out.� At least 50 percent of assaults involve the use of alcohol or drugs by the perpetrator, survivor or both, according to the study. While she was at a campus bar, McLay said she was groped by a collegeaged man. She informed the bouncer, who immediately knew the man she was talking about. “The guy asked, ‘Is it this guy? He’s been a problem,’� she said. Anthony Cortese, chief marketing officer at Fortney Companies, which is the corporate office for Brother’s, said that all sexual assault cases would immediately be turned over to authorities. “Any normal bar or any restaurant open late at night should have their own security personnel, which we do, and they’ll try to head something off as quickly as they can,� Cortese said. “The training that we give to our security personnel is to try to cease the incident as soon as possible in a non-violent way.� Women who experience sexual assault before entering college are almost seven times as likely to experience assault in college, according to the study. Nearly 58 percent of attacks occur at a party. “You can’t change the culture in a night, but every individual bit does have an impact,� Nelson said. “Even if you only intervene once or in one way, it changes the culture one day at a time.�

Having the ability to harvest year-round also allows students to have continuous options for volunteering. The farm welcomes all volunteers Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tess O’Leary, sophomore in DGS, heard about the farm from her art professor, Steve Kostell, who makes paper out of prairie grasses, corn and soy. “I volunteered on the farm because I love plants and

We’re very interested in telling puppetdriven stories, and my ambition is for a puppet to perform as well as a great actor does, for a puppet to really be a star of the show,� Down said. “Our work is very known for being quite funny, and we tend to try and explore the relationship between the puppet and the puppeteer.� Scott Salvatierra, sophomore in DGS, expressed enthusiasm for the unique delivery that the combination of puppetry and British humor will bring to the stage. “I’m a huge fan of British

comedy and the dry humor that comes with it,� he said. “I’m excited to see how the puppet plays in delivering that kind of comedic style, especially since it doesn’t have other puppets to interact with and feed off of.� Down said he simply hopes audiences appreciate the puppetry and enjoy the performance. “I hope first of all they have a really good time, and they laugh, and they think and they’re moved,� he said. “I hope people are touched by it. I hope that they open their eyes to the possibility of puppetry.�

From Tunnels to Tables

BY FRANCES WELCH STAFF WRITER

At its intersection with South Windsor Road, Lincoln Avenue turns into a gravel driveway that leads to barns, sheds and a fenced-in seven-acre area of plots full of rows of plants. With only a few greenhouse frames and various crops outside, the Sustainable Student Farm is so much more than what it appears. “The main purpose of the SSF is to be a seasonal produce farm that sells produce strictly to the dining halls,� said Zack Grant, manager and farm director of the SSF. Grant, along with Bruce Branham and Wes Gerald, played a key role in the birth of the farm back in 2009. The established relationship between the SSF and University Dining formed when Bruce Branham, professor of Crop Sciences, and Dawn Aubrey, associate director of Housing for Dining, had a conversation about sustainable food production. “It only seemed logical to have produce that was produced locally, which also

achieved our academic mission,� Aubrey said. “I think it’s just another form of education. It gives us an opportunity to support the academic mission and also educate our students about sustainability. By 2050, it is estimated that we will not have enough protein to supply the growing population, so we have something called Be-Flexitarian; having one meal a week that is vegetarian and vegan.� Grant said from a consumer standpoint, this farm is a great way to show individuals that it is possible to grow different types of produce year-round if one uses the techniques and systems demonstrated by SSF. One technique that is new to SSF during the colder months is high tunnel production, which they are transitioning into this month. “When you look at it, the fi rst thing most people say is, ‘Oh that’s a greenhouse.’ It can be, but it is a passively solar-heated greenhouse. This means that there is no heat input or cooling involved in it,� Grant said. “It’s a steel

structure with plastic covering, and you’re creating microclimates.� The high tunnels are connected to a moveable track so it can be rolled from one plot to another. This gives shelter to the crops that can no longer survive outside and can then thrive during whichever microclimate the high tunnels create. For the winter, as the normal outdoor production is coming to an end, the SSF begins to plant winter-sustainable crops, such as salad greens and root crops. As it continues to get colder, the high tunnels protect these crops from exposure through winter, which allows SSF to continue supplying produce to University Dining. During the winter months, most farms are unable to produce any type of crop, but the high tunnel protection allows the farm to harvest all the way through Christmas break and February. “After Christmas break, we’re really into the winter months, and at that point, most farmers are doing nothing.

Above: A tractor trailer is loaded with produce from the farm. For us, if crops like spinach and kale grow nicely, we can then harvest what is still harvestable in the middle of winter,� Grant said. “Even in January, we can bring produce to dining, replant the same set again and have a second set ready for March.� The ability to supply

fresh produce 12 months out of the year allows the SSF to supply one to five percent of produce to all of University Dining. Carrie Anderson, executive chef for Residential Dining, feels that SSF has

Blind Summit Theatre arrives at Krannert BY ELIZABETH DYE STAFF WRITER

Blind Summit Theatre, whose colossal 60-foot tall Voldemort puppet performed at the 2012 London Olympics, has returned to the United States from England with a tour that includes one 2-foot tall, three-man-operated puppet and a table as the prop. Inspired by both British playwrights and world religion, “The Table� stars a cantankerous puppet that intends to tell the story of Moses through his own performance. But as he performs his version of the story, he becomes distracted with his life questions and drifts off into his own humorous, existential crisis, while the puppeteers who control him improvise and interact with

both him and the audience. As part of its U.S. tour and its fi rst-ever performance at the University, the British group, Blind Summit Theatre, will perform “The Table� on Wednesday through Friday at 7:30 p.m. as well as Saturday at both 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets for the shows range from $10 to $38, and can be purchased over the phone or at Krannert’s ticket office. “One of the inspirations for the show was to do a full show with just one puppet, where one puppet does the whole show like a stand up comedian would,� said Mark Down, cofounder of Blind Summit and artistic director for “The Table.�

Moses, the cardboardheaded star puppet of the production, is a cranky, argumentative old man puppet, who spends the entire hourand-10-minute runtime of the show, performing on one single table. Down said he believes that much of the show’s ability to be relatable and improvisational stems from the scenery of the show — the single table. This allows the puppet to talk and joke with the audience as if there is no stage separating them. While Down voices the puppet, he is joined by Sean Garratt and Laura Caldow in operating the puppet’s movements. These three puppeteers are the only cast members on stage for the entire duration of the show. The

Krannert Center hosts China’s National Acrobats BY BRITTNEY NADLER STAFF WRITER

Juggling drums with their feet, kicking bowls while riding unicycles, diving through hoops and contorting are only a few of the acts the National Acrobats of the People’s Republic of China will be performing Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. “This group is traveling to the U.S. right now, so we’re glad to welcome them on tour,� said Bridget Lee-Calfas, advertising and publicity director for Krannert. “There is something so enchanting about circus art. It’s such an old tradition and one that we all can feel familiar with at some level.� Columbia Artists Management Inc. is managing the troupe and has worked with the University before, Lee-Calfas said. The performances they sent here in the past were “incredibly popular,� which led Krannert to book the National Acrobats. To become a National Acrobat, talent scouts choose young acrobats to train at the Institute for Acrobatic Schooling, Training, and Repertoire in Beijing at age six. They work six days a week and spend half of the school day training. They begin by

learning how to do a handstand and then advance in areas of tumbling, flexibility and dance. More than 50 teachers work with 500 students, and after 10 years of practice, only a select few are chosen to actually perform for the company. “Having a company come internationally ... they’re able to share not only what they do, but something about Chinese culture as well. This company is really going to blow people away with incredible acrobatics,� LeeCalfas said. Although the art has been around for thousands of years, the company was established in 1951 and has performed in Germany, Turkey, Taiwan, Singapore, Brazil, Mexico, Israel and Chile, among others. Cirque Peking is a cultural event for LAS Honors students to attend for free. This is the first event of its kind that more than 50 honors students will attend, said Dr. Kirsten Bartels, director of LAS Honors. “We really want to broaden the horizons and experience different cultures that will impact our students, and we thought this was a great idea,� Bartels said. “We decided rather than

go to a traditional play like we normally go to, that we were going to try something different.� LAS Honors has gone on trips to the Japan House for tea ceremonies and other performances at Krannert, but this event can expose students to something they have never seen before, Bartels said. “We know how we traditionally view theater, and I like the idea of going to something that’s a little non-traditional,� she said. “(Students) have such incredible opportunities to go and experience different enrichment and cultural activities that you’ve got to try it. For ten bucks, you can go see some world class performances and productions.�

Increased risk of sexual assault in fall semester in party culture BY BRITTNEY NADLER STAFF WRITER

It’s called the Red Zone — the period of time at the start of the school year when most college sexual assaults occur. Although the time period is debated, ranging from the first six weeks of school to any time between Labor Day and Thanksgiving, more than half of all campus sexual assaults occur between August and November. During a time when thousands of students are living on their own for the first time and are exposed to a new party culture, students are more vulnerable than ever for an attack, according to Molly McLay, assistant director of the Women’s Resources Center. “The issue isn’t with the behavior of the first year students — the issue is with these people in power who create the party scene, who create the bar culture,� she said. “that is created to prey on the vulnerability and lack of information that students coming in may have.� According to The Campus Sexual Assault Study by the U.S. Department of Justice in 2007, freshmen and sophomore women are more likely than upperclassmen to be assaulted. McLay expressed that this does not equate to responsibility. Just because someone does not have the knowledge of assault does not mean they should be more likely to be attacked. “A lot of the focus is on how do we teach women how to not be vulnerable in those situations,� McLay said. “The real change is going to occur when we shut down this party culture that’s set

PUPPETEERS peteers completely visible to the audience. Blind Summit’s puppeteers use dry, sarcastic and sometimes very adult humor as well as snappy improvisation to bring the character of Moses to life, Down said. Both Moses and the puppeteers break the third wall by interacting and joking with each other during the performance, making Moses seem more like an actor than a man-operated puppet. This is, in Down’s opinion, what makes “The Table� so unique. “Our work is very char-

up to get people in the door.� First-year students are also still signing up for FYCARE and may not have any knowledge about sexual assault, said Alex Nelson, graduate assistant at the Women’s Resources Center and a graduate student in Social Work. “I think that’s usually the first instance where people

get to learn about sexual assault in a formal setting, in a space designed purely to talk about sexual assault,� Nelson said. According to the report, fraternity men are more likely to be perpetrators while sorority women are more likely to be assaulted than non-Greek members. Those in Greek life tend to drink more, which puts them at a higher risk for assault. On campus bars, alcohol plays a large role in assaults. According to McLay, when someone is buying drinks for another person, there can be an expectation that the receiver is obligated to hook up with that person. “You feel like you can’t say no,� she said. “I’ve certainly had people try to buy me drinks at bars, and I felt

weirded out and didn’t have an out.� At least 50 percent of assaults involve the use of alcohol or drugs by the perpetrator, survivor or both, according to the study. While she was at a campus bar, McLay said she was groped by a collegeaged man. She informed the bouncer, who immediately knew the man she was talking about. “The guy asked, ‘Is it this guy? He’s been a problem,’� she said. Anthony Cortese, chief marketing officer at Fortney Companies, which is the corporate office for Brother’s, said that all sexual assault cases would immediately be turned over to authorities. “Any normal bar or any restaurant open late at night should have their own security personnel, which we do, and they’ll try to head something off as quickly as they can,� Cortese said. “The training that we give to our security personnel is to try to cease the incident as soon as possible in a non-violent way.� Women who experience sexual assault before entering college are almost seven times as likely to experience assault in college, according to the study. Nearly 58 percent of attacks occur at a party. “You can’t change the culture in a night, but every individual bit does have an impact,� Nelson said. “Even if you only intervene once or in one way, it changes the culture one day at a time.�

different seasons. The Farm also sells extra produce on the Main Quad every Thursday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., May through November. Having the ability to harvest year-round also allows students to have continuous options for volunteering. The farm welcomes all volunteers Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tess O’Leary, sophomore in DGS, heard about the farm from her art professor, Steve Kostell, who makes paper out of prairie grasses, corn and soy. “I volunteered on the farm because I love plants and

have always been very into the environmental movement,� O’Leary said. After volunteering on the farm, O’Leary felt she gained a better idea about what it takes to grow her own food and the methods used to promote sustainable food growth. “Not enough people recognize the perpetuated habits that degrade our very planet and take action to change our unhealthy behaviors,� she said. “The education is prevalent, but the action is limited.�

acter driven and characterimprovisation based. It’s aimed at adult audiences whereas a lot of puppetry is aimed at children. We’re very interested in telling puppetdriven stories, and my ambition is for a puppet to perform as well as a great actor does, for a puppet to really be a star of the show,� Down said. “Our work is very known for being quite funny, and we tend to try and explore the relationship between the puppet and the puppeteer.� Scott Salvatierra, sophomore in DGS, expressed enthusiasm for the unique delivery that the combination of puppetry and British humor will bring to the stage. “I’m a huge fan of British

comedy and the dry humor that comes with it,� he said. “I’m excited to see how the puppet plays in delivering that kind of comedic style, especially since it doesn’t have other puppets to interact with and feed off of.� Down said he simply hopes audiences appreciate the puppetry and enjoy the performance. “I hope first of all they have a really good time, and they laugh, and they think and they’re moved,� he said. “I hope people are touched by it. I hope that they open their eyes to the possibility of puppetry.�

Recruit Thomas commits to Texas A&M over Illinois BY ALEX ROUX STAFF WRITER

Elijah Thomas, the No. 29 player in the Class of 2015 according to ESPN.com, has committed to Texas A&M over Illinois and three other schools. The 6-foot-9 forward picked the Aggies over the Illini, LSU, SMU and Oklahoma State. Thomas’ recruitment had many Illini fans hopeful that he would end up committing to Illinois and head coach John Groce following a successful official visit to the Champaign campus last month. Following the visit, Thomas named Illinois the leader in his recruitment, and reaffirmed that sentiment two weeks before his announcement. However, the Illini couldn’t sustain their momentum, as Thomas became the latest high-profi le target to spurn Groce and go elsewhere. Illinois was the geographic outlier for Thomas, as Texas A&M is much closer to his Dallas home, as were the other three schools on his fi nal list. As the recruiting of the

Class of 2015 begins to shrink and basketball season approaches, the Illini will be sure to put a full-court press on Carlton Bragg out of Cleveland. Bragg is one of the best players still remaining in the class and is considering the Illini along with Kansas, Kentucky and UCLA. Expect Groce and his staff to monitor guards Marcus LoVett of Chicago and Jamal Murray of Canada into the spring as well. A return of 6-foot-8 forward Darius Paul to the Illini roster in 2015-16 is not out of the question either. Paul is currently serving out a one-year suspension while playing at a junior college in Texas, but will be available to return to the Illini if he takes care of business off the court, according to Groce. Aaron Jordan, D.J. Williams and Jalen Coleman-Lands currently make up Groce’s 2015 class.

Fans should get excited for this basketball team ALEX ROUX Basketball columnist

Is

anyone else ready for basketball season to start? I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to watch actual Illinois basketball, featuring actual Illini players. You can only do so many fantasy projections of lineups two years down the road, happily plugging in every five-star recruit on John Groce’s radar into the Illini’s 2016 National Championship roster. I don’t blame you. I do the same thing every fall while averting my eyes from the disaster that is Illinois football. No, Illinois didn’t get Elijah Thomas on Tuesday. The Illini didn’t get Jalen Brunson or Jawun Evans, either. Illinois hasn’t had much luck with public press conference-style announcements since Austin Colbert donned an orange and blue cap back in 2012. Recruiting is an interesting thing to follow, and it’s easy to see why fans track it closely. It’s fun to speculate about who might be suiting up for the beloved team down the road, and it can be entertaining to watch how recruiting classes shake out. Fans also tend to put recruits on a pedestal, overestimating their shiny new toys and valuing them above the old, reliable ones they’ve had for years. I’ve said before that Groce has already landed a solid recruiting class in the form of Aaron Jordan, D.J. Williams and Jalen Coleman-Lands. It’s true. All three will likely be very good college basketball players. But they still won’t play for the Illini this season. This season starts in 23 days, and the window to land players in the recruiting class of 2015 is closing fast. Sure, Groce will keep an eye on potential spring targets, but his focus will be on the 201415 version of Illinois basketball. At this point, our focus should be too. So, since no one is expecting any major recruiting developments for a while, all of this pent-up Orange Energy has to go somewhere, right? What are the people who tweeted “#Illijah� non-stop for the past month going to do now? Let’s pour that attention into the current Illini squad. Remember, these guys were all recruits too at one point, and they actually chose to play for Illinois. Show some love for senior Nnanna Egwu, who seems to

be on a mission to leave a lasting legacy at Illinois in his senior year. Groce has been heaping praise on the guy, and fans should too. He will be a huge key to the success of this team. How about a shout-out for the shooters? Ahmad Starks, Aaron Cosby and Kendrick Nunn, who will stretch opposing defenses this year. Last year’s Illini sorely lacked an outside threat, which likely was the difference between an NCAA berth and an NIT bid. The bruisers deserve a bump too. Rayvonte Rice, Malcolm Hill and Leron Black will fill up stat sheets this year, thanks to their individual talent combined with the aforementioned three-point marksmen opening up driving lanes. If Illini Nation can show support for some guys that might someday play for Illinois, they should be able to show it for our current roster, too. That includes Colbert, point guard Jaylon Tate, backup centers Maverick Morgan and Michael Finke, and walkons Mike LaTulip, Alex Austin and Cam Liss. Don’t forget injured point guard Tracy Abrams either, who will be an off-the-court leader for the Illini this season. Illinois fans who are down about last season’s NIT appearance need to realize the Illini were playing NCAA tournament-level basketball down the stretch last season, and that was without anyone who could consistently shoot the ball. This is an NCAA tournament team this year, period. I believe Groce will have the Illini in the Top 25 for the majority of the season, as well. Don’t get too down about this latest recruiting setback. Actual basketball season is just around the corner, and it’s going to be a good one. Let the national media, who have picked the Illini to finish anywhere from sixth to tenth in the Big Ten this year, sleep on this team. I bet they’ll be voting the Illini into the polls before you know it. Groce deserves praise for his recruiting efforts this fall. But his current team deserves your attention going forward, and it will deserve credit soon enough. Illini fans didn’t get to drive the flashy, brandnew car off the lot on Tuesday. Good thing the current one runs just fine, and just might go farther than anyone expects.

ILLINI OF THE

WEEK

BY DANIEL DEXTER STAFF WRITER

Editor’s note: The Daily Illini sports desk sits down on Sunday nights and decides which Illinois athlete or coach is our Illini of the Week. Athletes and coaches are evaluated by individual performance and contribution to team success.

G

oalie Joe Olen needed his teammates to bail him out. Midway through the third period, the Illinois hockey team found itself down by two goals against Michigan-Dearborn at the Illinois Ice Arena. Then with less than four minutes to go in the game, the Illini clawed their way back. Defenseman Austin Zima found the back of the net to bring the team within one. With just over a minute left, center Josh Belmont tied the game up at 4-4 to send it into overtime.

T

he atmosphere at the “Big Pond� is unlike any other in college hockey. Students and locals alike file up the stairs to sit in the upper deck of the Illinois Ice Arena. Those lucky enough to get to the rink early are rewarded with front-row seats that allow fans to lean right over the ice. Others are rewarded with a good view of the rink and the team’s banners — reminders of past championships on the walls. Being an opponent at the rink is what some might consider a nightmare. Outside of the bigger rink, the home fans are relentless. At player introductions, visitors are met with chants that are not suitable to publish. An opposing goalie dare not make a mistake or he risks hearing chants of “it’s all your fault.� And if an opponent does something that upsets fans, the student section, conveniently placed right above the opposing bench, will let him have it. With an atmosphere like this, you might think that Illinois hockey is a Division I program. It’s not, however.

Homecoming marks 1-year anniversary of last time Hardee saw his mother healthy BY CHARLOTTE CARROLL STAFF WRITER

This year Homecoming will be different for wide receiver Justin Hardee. His mom, Estella Perryman, won’t be sitting behind the 35-yard line. They won’t go to his apartment after the game to eat. And he won’t hear her say ‘I love you.’ It was at last year’s game where he saw his mom as herself for a final time. She wasn’t lying in a hospital bed; rather she was alive and well, cheering on her son and his fellow Illinois football team members. “When I went back home, it was when she was really sick,� Hardee said. “She wasn’t herself. So it was just real special to know that the last time I did see her was at an Illini football

game.� Perryman died later that year in December at the age of 55 after battling lung disease for close to 15 years. The disease had been a constant theme in Hardee’s life, as he grew up watching his mother go to doctors’ offices, take medication and use a breathing machine on a regular basis. And while Hardee made it home to Cleveland in time for her passing, it wasn’t the same. He got to be with her and the rest of his family, but ultimately it’s the memory of Homecoming that is the moment he last considers her “alive.� While Perryman didn’t know much about football, she did know how to push her son when it came to academics. And this drove him back to school to take fi nal exams in the weeks

just after her death. “It was tough, but my mom was a strong person and that was one thing I wanted to remain,� Hardee said. “Just strong, because I could hear her in my ear telling me now what to do in certain situations and to always be positive. I wanted to come back to school just because I wanted to show people that is possible to go through tough things and still do the right thing.� He took those exams and is set to graduate with his bachelor’s in communication this December after just two and a half years of classes because he came into college with so many credits. He will finish his football eligibility by starting a master’s program and continue on the academic path his mom set him on. As Hardee has focused

on his school work, football has given him another outlet to center his attentions on. And his mother’s death made him realize how close of a family Illinois is for its players and coaches. “Ever since then, the team has really had my back,� Hardee said. “That’s why I love this team and I wouldn’t trade them for anything.� Defensive back V’Angelo Bentley is one teammate whose brotherhood with Hardee extends well beyond college. The pair met when they were kids playing for the East Cleveland Chiefs, a Pop Warner team. That friendship carried on as the two went to The Ginn Academy together and then on to college.

OLEN Olen got his opportunity to repay his teammates. Illinois scored the first goal of the shootout, and that was all it needed. In front of a packed house at the Big Pond, Olen stepped up his game and made all three shootout saves to complete the comeback. The pressure didn’t get to him. He had been there before and knew what it took to pull through. “Shootouts are almost a different game,” Olen said. “You are kind of focusing on little details. It’s all about timing.” Timing wasn’t in Olen’s favor in the second period as Michigan-Dearborn found the back of the net twice in a span of six seconds. Head coach Nick Fabbrini stayed the course with Olen. The score wasn’t telling the whole story of how his goalie was playing. The first of the two quick goals came as a result of a defensive breakdown, which allowed Michigan-Dearborn’s Eric Rosteck to get past the defenders. Six seconds later, a shot hit off a teammate’s stick to knock in a goal for the Wolverines to give them a 3-2 lead. “The puck changed direction on him,” Fabbrini said. “It’s tough, especially given the timing of it. He bailed us out with some huge saves early in the game, and then again later in the game.

THE DAILY ILLINI | WWW.DAILYILLINI.COM

Our guys know he is going to give us a chance to win every game.” For Olen, a short memory and the support of his defense was the key for him to recover and help the team in overtime. As much as Olen relies on his defense for support in tough situations, the defensemen find comfort in having a leader to back them up in the goal when they are facing a deficit. “In that kind of situation, it’s great to have Joey O between the pipes because you can turn around and know you are going to have somebody there that’s going to work for you just as hard as you are going to work for him,” Zima said. “The defenseman and their goaltender need to be on the same page. Not just communication wise but also comfort wise.” Despite the strong finish, Olen wasn’t satisfied with his play. He believed that the game shouldn’t have been as close as it was, and he proved it the following night. Illinois’ scoring came alive in the game Saturday, and the defense was a big part of it. With the Illini leading 3-0, Michigan-Dearborn scored its first goal midway through the second period. Olen dropped his head as the horn signaled a goal. He knew he shouldn’t have let the goal through. He didn’t make that mistake again, and that one goal became the only blemish in an otherwise perfect game, which he finished with 26 saves.

Honorable Mentions Morganne Criswell (volleyball) — The senior outside hitter had 21 kills against Nebraska and 17 against Iowa.

Thomas Detry (men’s golf) — The junior won the Sagamore Fall Preview by three strokes and was named Big Ten Golfer of the Week. “It was pretty much the same game as the night before,” Olen said. “I just thought I had a little bit more confidence. I was more comfortable in the net than the game before.” Olen has recorded a victory in all of his outings in goal thus far, and the Illini are cruising toward conference play with an 8-1-0 record. Fabbrini attributes Olen’s success to his size, athleticism and anticipation in the goal. He poses a challenge for any opponent with his play on the ice and leadership off it. “He is quietly one of the most competitive guys on the team,” Fabbrini said. “He hates giving up goals, whether it’s in a game or in practice. That’s what we expect out of him. We expect him to keep battling out there. These guys feed off that.”

HARDEE Bentley called Perryman a very loving person who would often give the two rides to school and always check in that they were doing their school work. He remembers the last time he saw Perryman as well, giving her a hug and talking with her in her car after that Homecoming game. And he remembers Perryman teasing the two on what they should have done and that they missed certain tackles in the game. Because, he said “that’s what (their) moms do.” And he’s seen the change in attitude in Hardee through-

out the year. “I’ve seen him mature and become more focused,” Bentley said. “He’s just become more focused on his goals. I would definitely say now he has a ‘why’ as to why he plays the game. (I’m) not saying he didn’t before but having your mom pass can be detrimental to anyone, so I think his focus tightened up and he worked his butt off to become the player he is.” In the year since his mother’s death, Hardee has worked hard to become a more consistent player. In six of the team’s seven games he’s played in, he has already had 16 receptions for 201 yards. His total yardage has more than doubled from the 2013 season, when he record-

ed only 95 receiving yards on 11 grabs. And while Homecoming may be different this year, it doesn’t change how often he thinks of his mom. “It’s been something that he thinks about every day,” head coach Tim Beckman said. “He still has pictures up of his mom even in lockers and stuff of that nature. That’s what a relationship is all about. And when he lost his mother, he took it extremely hard. I think he’s really matured through it and he knows now what he plays for every week.”

Men’s golf ends winning streak with 4th place finish BY LAUREN MROZ

SONNY AN THE DAILY ILLINI

Illinois does not have a Divison I hockey program but offers a unique environment for fans and players. In 2010, the five hockey schools in the Big Ten reported $19 million in profit, before the Big Ten Network.

FROM 1B

HOCKEY Students pay to watch the club team play. More importantly, the players pay to play a sport that they’ve played for most of their lives. It was possible that the team wouldn’t have had a place to play this season when the Ice Arena was forced to close for repairs. Despite the obstacles, there is hope. If a plan were put into place now, it would be possible for there to be a Division I hockey team at Illinois in five years. There are two major hurdles schools have to face when considering adding a new athletic team on campus: finances and Title IX. The main financial concern for a potential Division I hockey program would be its home. The 1,200 seat Ice Arena is too small to house a Big Ten hockey team. Penn State’s Pegula Ice Arena has the lowest capacity in the Big Ten, 6,014 but is also something that provides a glimmer of hope for a potential Illinois program. Pegula Ice Arena was built after alumni Terry and Kim Pegula made a $100 million donation to help build the stadium and the program. Illinois has alumni around the country that might be able to help fund a new stadium or a major renovation of the Ice Arena. Alumnus Shahid Khan, the owner of the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars, is a potential donor the University could approach about a donation to help build a new arena for the team to play in. Another potential home for the hockey program could be State Farm Center. Both Wisconsin and Ohio State use their basketball homes as their hockey homes, too. It’s convenient that State Farm Center is undergoing renovations. As of right now, the renderings for the bowl of the stadium do not appear to be big enough to hold a hockey rink. The good news is that there’s been no work on the bowl area yet, as that is set to start in March 2015. If the plan were developed soon, changes could be made to host a hockey team in the arena too. There are other expenses that a varsity team will incur, including equipment costs, ice maintenance and travel. The first few

years of a varsity program might not show big gains, but eventually, Illinois hockey could turn a profit. In 2010, the five hockey schools in the Big Ten — Penn State was a club team then — reported $19 million in profit, according to the U.S. Department of Education. After the Big Ten started sponsoring hockey in the 2013-14 season, the Big Ten Network announced that each school would receive $2 million dollars from the network. The schools in the Big Ten used to play in the CCHA and the WCHA conferences. An Illinois varsity program would most likely garner large student crowds. With the recent success of the Chicago Blackhawks, hockey is popular on campus. A Division I program would encourage students to come out and watch the team play. The locals might be skeptical at first, but a winning program will be well supported by the community. The program will also have great potential for success. A recent Chicago Tribune article mentioned that Illinois’ hockey talent has no in-state program to attend. Illinois has hockey talent that can compete with states like Minnesota and Massachusetts. A new program would draw prospects from in-state and maybe even from other states. The second roadblock to a varsity hockey team is Title IX. Title IX was created in 1972 “to prohibit sex discrimination in educational programs that receive Federal financial assistance.” For Illinois, that means that it would have to add another women’s varsity team. If the University was to build a new stadium or use State Farm Canter, it would be logical to have a women’s hockey team. There is a club women’s team that would surely benefit from the promotion. Although it’s not realistic to expect this to happen in two or three years, there is a potential for there to be a Division I program in the near future. If things are treated with a sense of urgency, Illinois hockey fans will be able to provide a varsity team with home-ice advantage as early as 2020.

The Illinois men’s golf team’s No. 1 ranking was put to the test Oct. 19-21 at the Tavistock Collegiate Invitational at the Lake Nona Golf and Country Club — a course well-known for its difficulty. Competing with a talented group of fifteen teams that included ten of Golfweek’s top 50 teams, the Illini needed to be at the top of their games this week in order to continue their undefeated fall season. The Illini opened the tournament with a strong first round, posting a 12-under-par 276. That was only enough to land them a fourth-place finish, which is where they would stay for the remainder of the tournament. After a poor second round on the forest-lined, lake-surrounded course in Orlando, Florida, the Illini sat 15 strokes behind firstplace Vanderbilt. Freshman Dylan Meyer showed the only sign of consistency for the Illini in the second round. He stood at 2-under-par through 16 holes before making his first bogey of the round on the par-3 17th hole. His round landed him in 12th place, tied with teammate junior Charlie Danielson. Meyer’s steady stride did not continue into the final round as he found himself in 29th to tie with teammate senior Brian Campbell. Freshman Nick Hardy led the

team in the final round, shooting a season-best 5-under-par 67. Danielson added a 3-under-par 69. The Illini bounced back to finish with the second-best round of the day (-12) at 276 but had too wide a margin to overcome, contributing to their first loss of the season. Coming off a tournament win at the Sagamore Fall Preview Oct. 13-14 and Big Ten Golfer of the Week honors, junior Thomas Detry struggled in Orlando. A 78 in the second round dropped him from 16th place to 50th. He made up some strokes in the final round, however, and finished at 217, tied for 40th. This week’s loss concludes fall play for the Illini, along with ending their undefeated season. It was Illinois’ best start since Steve Stricker led the 1988-89 team to a 4-0 fall season. “I thought it was some solid golf,” head coach Mike Small said. “As a coach, you have to take the good with the bad at times. This wasn’t bad by any means, but it wasn’t our best. I’m proud of the guys for finishing up the way they did. With a fourth place finish in an event like that, a lot of teams would take that.” The loss also puts the team’s No. 1 ranking in jeopardy. Illinois’ spot at No. 1 marks the first time since 2001, when the coaches’ poll started, that a northern school has claimed the top spot in a nationally recognized poll.

Summary: Florida State Tavistock Collegiate Invitational; Illinois finishes in 4th Key Performer: Nick Hardy shot a season-best 5-under par 67 Hidden Stat: Nick Hardy finished tied for 20th. He finished in the top 20 in all four fall tournaments Up next: vs. Illinois State, Jan. 24, Coral Creek Golf Club, Placida, Florida “I’m proud of the guys.” Small said. “They’ve earned the rights to be selected out. They’ve worked hard for this. They deserve to get some of the fruits of their labor. That being said, a lot of these teams will get better over the winter, so we need to continue to get better ourselves.” The Illini head back to Florida January 24 for the Tinervin Cup in Placida where they will compete against the Illinois State Redbirds for the competitors’ 11th annual face off. Illinois has won all ten of the previous matchups.

Viliunas thrives in old Illini system BY NICHOLAS FORTIN STAFF WRITER

For junior setter Alexis Viliunas, the awards don’t mean much. While it’s nice for Viliunas to be recognized among some of the best setters in the Big Ten, it’s better that the Illinois volleyball team has found a rhythm. “I’m pretty happy with it for the most part,” Viliunas said of her play. “I think I’m getting back into it, sort of. Getting used to running the 5-1. “It’s nice to be in rhythm. Sometimes, running the 6-2, when you get in rhythm you’re subbed out. It takes a little bit to get back into it. I like the rhythm that we’ve been in with the 5-1.” The No. 10 Illini (14-5, 6-2 Big Ten), started the season with a new 6-2 rotation system, but switched back to the 5-1 system they played last year. With the change came the wins and the accolades for players like Viliunas, who was named Big Ten Setter of the Week for her performance over the week. Viliunas set and reset her season-high in assists during the week as she started it with a 54-assist performance against Iowa on Wednesday and finished it up with a 56-assist showing

her impact on defense is more impressive. While in the front row, Viliunas helped hold Nebraska sophomore outside hitter Kadie Rolfzen to a .046 hitting percentage. “More importantly, Lex did a good job of defending,” Hambly said. “She was matched up on one of the better outsides in the league in Kadie Rolfzen and did a really nice job against her.” While Hambly praised her defense, senior outside hitter Morganne Criswell praised Viliunas’ sets as of late. Criswell, after being shut out against Penn State, bounced back with 17 and 21 kills against Iowa and Nebraska, respective ly, and said that Viliunas’ play contributed to her own recent success. “Her sets have been really great and she’s been working really hard on it so that helps a lot when the sets are on point,” Criswell said. So while the weekly awards and the recognition is nice, Viliunas hopes the Illini keep their level of play up no matter what system they are in.

Illinois’ Deron Williams raises his arms to celebrate points scored by teammate Dee Brown during the second half of the game at the University of Iowa on Feb. 11th, 2005. Williams now plays for the Brooklyn Nets, while Brown plays overseas.

ith this year being the 10th anniversary of the 200405 Illini men’s basketball team that finished 37-2 and lost to North Carolina in the national championship, I thought that there was no better time to reflect on that season and where that team’s leaders are today. Despite not winning the title, this Illini team is regarded as one of the best teams of all time and was recently named “The Greatest Team to Not Win the National Championship” by a Sports Illustrated fan vote. The team’s “Big Three” consisted of guards Deron Williams, Dee Brown and Luther Head. These three combined for more than half of the team’s points during the season, and made over 80 percent of the team’s three-pointers. After the season, Brown was named Big Ten Player of the Year and was a consensus first-team AllAmerican. Head and Williams were both selected as consensus second-team All-American and were both also selected to the NCAA Final Four All-Tournament Team. We all know how great of a team it was, how talented

the three guards were and how disappointing it was that they couldn’t pull off the finishing touches to an almost “perfect” season in the eyes of Illini fans. But what’s happened to that team’s stars since? After the loss against UNC, both Head and Williams declared for the NBA draft, leaving Brown to finish his senior year at Illinois. Williams, who had the worst shooting statistics of the three, but led the team with 264 assists, was selected third overall in the draft by the Utah Jazz. Williams has had by far the best career of the Illinois prodigies, having been selected to three NBA All-Star teams and winning three gold medals with Team USA. In his career with the Jazz and the Brooklyn Nets, he has averaged 17.4 points and 8.7 assists and he is the only one of the Illinois trio still playing in the NBA. In the same year that Williams was drafted, Head was selected No. 24 by the Houston Rockets. Head was in the NBA from 2005-2011. He started his career with reasonable success, averaging 8.8 points and 2.7 assists per game in his rookie season. His performance was strong enough to help him make the NBA All-Rookie Second Team. He followed his rookie season with the best year of his career in 2006-07, averaging 10.8

points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game. Despite his strong sophomore campaign, the rest of Head’s NBA career was derailed by devastating injuries. Last year, CB Valladolid, of the Spanish league, signed Head to a contract after he had played a season in China. Brown had a strong performance during his senior year at Illinois and took most of the point guard minutes left by the absence of Williams. The Utah Jazz also drafted Brown, a year later with the 46th pick. The biggest impact that Brown ever made in the NBA was as a fill-in-starter for the Wizards when Gilbert Arenas was hurt. In his brief stint, he averaged 2.4 points and 1.9 assists. Since, Brown has played for many different teams overseas including teams in Turkey, Israel, Italy, China, Puerto Rico, Latvia and Romania. Despite barely being in the United States, Brown has kept close ties with the University. Maybe the careers of the three Illini stars didn’t end exactly where they had envisioned, but they all made memories in 2005 that will never be forgotten by Illini fans.

Player loyalty depends on more than play ASHLEY WIJANGCO Sports columnist

T

here was something about that move that triggered a sense of familiarity within

me. Pau Gasol threw a lob up to Jimmy Butler in the right post. Butler was calling for the ball, but by the time he got it, Gary Neal closed out on him. That’s when Butler saw Kirk Hinrich open in the right corner. Kemba Walker quickly closed out on Hinrich in the right corner, but it didn’t make a difference. Hinrich beat Walker off the dribble, taking two dribbles to the right. He stopped before putting up a 21-foot, right-wing jumper while slightly fading to the right. It went in. I had seen that shot both made and missed before, mostly during Hinrich’s early years as a Bull. Once the shot fell through the net, though, I knew it was one of those nights: Hinrich was going to score big. Hinrich ended Sunday night’s 101-96 win over the Charlotte Hornets with 26 points, two assists and a steal in 32 minutes. He went 11-for-14 from the field, 2-for-4 on threes and 1-for-3 from the charity stripe. It really shouldn’t be that

big of a deal since it was only preseason, but it was still the highlight of my weekend. If there’s one thing that makes me happier than watching the Chicago Bulls play basketball, it’s watching Kirk Hinrich play for the Bulls, because I can’t imagine anything better than watching my favorite player compete for my favorite team, but for someone who’s also a huge fan of superstars like Derrick Rose and LeBron James, saying Kirk Hinrich is my favorite seems ridiculous. Sometimes it feels like I’m the only basketball fan left who still likes Hinrich. If it were 2006, I’d seem reasonable for saying Hinrich is my favorite. He was at the top of his game, made the NBA All-Defensive second team and was the leader of the “Baby Bulls.” Even if it were 2010, I’d seem more sane. He averaged double figures in points, and that was also the year that he became the Bulls’ all-time leader and made three-point field goals, but now it’s 2014. Hinrich’s almost 34 and in his 12th NBA season. He’s definitely not the player he once was. “He can’t shoot. He can’t even score. He’s too old. He’s too slow to be the good defender he was before. He’s always hurt.” I’ve heard all of that too many times. Regardless of whether any of that is true, absolutely none of that has changed and will never

change the fact that Hinrich is my favorite. My appreciation of Hinrich is about much more than the numbers I see next to his name in the box scores. Tom Thibadeau has said it several times before: You can’t measure his value through statistics, and I completely agree with him, but even all the charges he takes and hustle plays he makes don’t define why he’s my favorite. It’s

Not even Derrick Rose’s speed and flashy plays could dethrone Hinrich as my favorite. about love and loyalty. I first heard about Hinrich after the Bulls drafted him with the seventh overall pick in the 2003 draft. My older brother told me about him, and he was the first Bull I actually knew about whose name wasn’t Michael Jordan or Scottie Pippen. I eventually came to remember him as someone who shot threes and

hustled, which I loved. With more time and knowledge, I was able to acknowledge other aspects of his game, like his play-making ability, leadership and defense. I ended up liking Hinrich so much that not even Derrick Rose’s speed and flashy plays could dethrone Hinrich as my favorite; Hinrich had made too much of an impact on me as a basketball fan. His trade to the Wizards and eventually the Hawks couldn’t change that either. It simply meant I didn’t get to watch him play as often, and that’s where the loyalty really kicked in. Finding out Hinrich was traded to the Wizards for essentially nothing in June 2010 was one of the most upsetting moments of my life. I never wanted to see him play for any team besides the Bulls, but I toughed it out. Getting to see him play at all, even on a horrific Washington team, was worth the pain. Seeing Hinrich in Atlanta was easier, though, since the Hawks were a playoff team. Hinrich’s time away from Chicago was worth it, because it made his homecoming so much better. Nothing was ever certain, but I always knew Hinrich was going to come back to the Bulls. When I found out he verbally committed to sign with Chicago as a free agent on July 8, 2012, I was ecstatic. I didn’t know quite what to expect once Hinrich returned to the hardwood sporting a Bulls jer-

sey again, but I never expected him to suffer so many injuries. I, like him, thought he was past the injury-plagued seasons he suffered in Atlanta. Unfortunately, I was wrong, and with those Hinrich’s injuries came shooting struggles I didn’t want to happen, but going through tough times comes with being a fan. Most people associate loyalty with being a fan of a particular sports team, but it’s something that should be applied to liking particular athletes too. The two differ, because teams eventually get better with time while athletes peak and go downhill, so I understand why there are people who don’t support Hinrich anymore. I just don’t agree with them. I’m not going to stop supporting a player after having done so for years just because he got worse. He’s human, so it’s inevitable. The good, productive days have pretty much passed. They’ll occasionally reappear, but loyalty isn’t about just appreciating the good times. It’s about going through everything. I wouldn’t have truly appreciated Kirk’s 26-point performance without that loyalty, and I certainly wouldn’t be the basketball fan I am today without him.

El Clasico marks return of Suarez DAN ESCALONA Sports columnist

D

on’t look now, but the most fascinating, enigmatic and controversial player in soccer is primed to return later this week. Luis Suarez, the serial biter, will return from his fourmonth suspension Saturday for Barcelona following his infamous biting incident at the World Cup. Not only is his return good news for Barca, and bad news for the rest of Europe, but the timing of his return cannot possibly be better him and the team. Suarez will make his debut for Barcelona against rival Real Madrid in the latest edition of El Clasico. For the uninitiated, El Clasico is easily one of the most heated rivalries in soccer — and possibly all of sports. The rivalry developed during the Spanish Civil War and the stakes are always high in one of Europe’s fiercest derbies. Injecting the energy brought by Suarez adds an irresistible layer of zest into an always intense El Clasico affair. For all we know, Suarez might just be brought out onto the pitch with a muzzle strapped to his mouth — a la Hannibal Lecter. One can never know. The implications of his return from suspension, though, are much bigger

then simply one game for Barcelona. Adding Suarez into the mix to an already star-studded lineup, which includes Leo Messi and Neymar, makes Barcelona the team to beat in Europe. Thus far into the La Liga season, even without Suarez, Barca is undefeated in eight matches. It has outscored opponents by 22 goals, and most remarkably, has yet to concede. It’s clear the team’s been on fi re out of the gate. With Messi up to his usual tricks and the emergence of Neymar following an uneventful 2013 season, bringing Suarez into the fold gives Barcelona a lethal trio of strikers. Perhaps the most infuriating aspect of the Suarez fiasco in June is the fact that the incident caused many to neglect the value he brings on the field. His clearly illadvised actions turned him into essentially a caricature. Getting back on the pitch and being able to contribute right away, and of course stay away from controversy, will do a great deal in fi xing up his reputation as a player. This was the leading scorer in the Premier league last season after all. By simply comparing the play of Liverpool with and without Suarez, one can easily see how much of an impact he has on any team. Thus far in the season, Liverpool has had a diffi cult time replicating the pace and attacking ability Suarez brought. He nearly led his former club to its fi rst EPL title a season ago, so his

value cannot be overstated. Suarez’s greatest asset is the energy and constant movement he brings for 90 minutes. His high-octane, never say die attitude on the field wreaks havoc for every opposing defense he encounters. His energetic style of play is incredibly contagious and he has the ability to change the momentum of any match on a dime. Of course, Suarez wears his heart on his sleeve and is an emotional player on the pitch (maybe sometimes too emotional). If he can keep his behavior in check, that energy and emotion that come with the Suarez package can only benefit Barcelona. Barca is already loaded and well-balanced with two world-class strikers, a stingy defense and a knack for controlling the possession. By throwing another elite score into the fold, Barcelona could potentially win a treble (La Liga, Copa del Rey and Champions League) this season. While Suarez will not be the focal point of the Barcelona attack, playing a complementary roll up front to Messi and Neymar may be the ideal role for him. As for Suarez, his suspension may have been the antidote he needed to fi x his behavior. Previous incidents of biting other players already ended his playing days at Ajax and Liverpool. The most recent incident during the World Cup cost him the most in terms of reputation, so it should be obvious at this point that
