New students should get involved with homecoming events, festivities

BY SAHER KHAN STAFF WRITER

To many freshmen and new students at the University, the word “homecoming” triggers memories of formal wear, pep rallies and spirit week — traditions they might have assumed would be left behind in high school. But the homecoming tradition carries on at the University.

While the festivities are slightly different, the concept of homecoming is the same.

“Homecoming week here at the University is meant to bring students, alumni, faculty and the community together to celebrate and appreciate our school,” said Tim Rees, member of the Student Alumni Association and former Illini Media employee.

The SAA leads many of the major events of homecoming week, such as organizing a block party, decorating the Quad and pulling in businesses on Green Street to participate in window painting.

Homecoming week also brings back many alumni to campus.

“We try to bridge that gap between former students and current students and invite many of our valued alumni back to campus,” said Rees, junior in Media.

The University has one of the longest-

“My high school had a lot of spirit around this time of week, so I’m excited that U of I does, too,” Darabu said. “I’m looking forward to repping my school as hard as I can for that one week.”

Kelsey Johnson, junior in Engineering, advises new students to go out to whatever homecoming events are brought to students’ attention because they are always serving free food. She also said the one event students should attend is the homecoming football game.

“New students should definitely go to the football game because it will probably have the most school spirit and excitement out of all of the other games for the year,” Johnson said.

Rees, Darabu and Johnson all said the small subtle things done to show support and involvement during the week is what makes homecoming week fun.

“It’s all about taking pride in our school,” Rees said.

Illinois played against Chicago in the first homecoming football game at the Illinois Field on Oct. 15, 1910. Illinois won 3-0 against Chicago.

Homecoming football game longrunning, meaningful tradition

BY JED LACY STAFF WRITER

Over the course of the last century, the University’s homecoming football game has taken on a variety of unique meanings for participating members.

For Walter Ekblaw and Clarence Williams, the creators of the University’s homecoming tradition, a football game could be used to attract the Illinois family back to ChampaignUrbana and hold a celebration for alumni.

Thus in 1910, when Ekblaw and Williams were University seniors, they began what has become the nation’s longest-running homecoming tradition.

Ekblaw was one of The Daily Illini’s chief reporters at the time and was able to use the publication to get the word out about the start of homecoming to the masses.

“Nothing could do more to attract the alumni and alumnae back to their Alma Mater than such a home-coming,” The Daily Illini wrote in a homecoming editorial featured that first year.

For their first homecoming game, the Illini played against their rival, the University of Chicago Maroons. The Illini won 3-0 against Chicago, a team they had not beaten in seven years.

For many alumni returning to their old stomping grounds, the homecoming football game serves as the ultimate reminder of the school spirit still upheld by those who attend and have graduated from the University. Going to the homecoming game has become a ritual for many alumni; it provides the opportunity for alumni to participate in a long-running college tradition and express their love toward the University.

As the All-American guard selection for the Illini in 1991, Tim Simpson makes an effort to return for the homecoming game each year.

“It is especially important to me to come back and experience the nostalgia of the homecoming game first-hand,” Simpson said.

“It puts a smile on my face to look back at all those memories now.”

Simpson played offensive guard for the Illini from 1988 to 1991 and experienced four homecoming games from the perspective of a player. While on the team, Simpson

played against Wisconsin two out of the four homecoming games in which he participated.

In addition to the increased intensity of homecoming’s pageantries, playing against the Badgers was always a game that resonated with Simpson.

“Besides playing them for homecoming twice, playing Wisconsin was always an especially important game to me,” he said.

“They were one of the teams that didn’t recruit me in high school because they thought I was too small to play offensive lineman in the Big Ten. I always used that as motivation in preparation for that game. “ For this year’s homecoming game, the Illini will take on Michigan State on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. Athletes must prepare for a game quite different than the norm; one where the crowds will be louder, the stage will be brighter and the win or loss will collectively mean a little more. It can be no easy task for players to enjoy the festivities of the homecoming week while still remaining focused on the task at hand — bringing in a victory for participating students and alumni.

Kameron Fry, wide receiver for the Illini and sophomore in LAS, described his experience of handling the pressure during a time of celebration.

“With all the festivities going around you, you can’t enjoy them as much as you might want. You have to remember that you still have a game to play and all week make sure to maintain that focus,” Fry said.

While maintaining focus is imperative for those playing in the game, the rest of the student population can experience the homecoming game as nothing short of a joyous celebration. For many students, it is a fun-filled day of tailgating with friends and family and passionately cheering on the Orange and Blue.

Chris Smreczak, junior in LAS, said homecoming is the one game each year he makes sure to attend.

“I usually don’t attend a ton of the football games, but I always make an effort to go to the homecoming game,” Smreczak said. “There’s just something special about that (game) that makes it mean more than all of the others.”

The Illini spirit of service filled campus and the Champaign-Urbana community on Friday through iHelp, a volunteer initiative done in the name of the Alma Mater. University students kicked off homecoming week by volunteering at dozens of local organizations from 2 to 6 p.m.

The Student Alumni Ambassadors organized iHelp to give students, alumni, family and friends an opportunity to work together and give back to the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;iHelp accomplishes the Student Alumni Ambassadorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mission of bringing together students on campus and alumni across the globe for one cause and also advances the Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission of making the world a better place,â&#x20AC;? said Kenny Shaevel, iHelpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vice president of service and outreach and junior in LAS and Engineering.

Service projects ranged from painting schools, assisting children with making crafts, raking leaves and helping at a nursing home. One of the eventâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest projects was Illini Fighting Hunger. Volunteers packaged thousands of meals at the Student Dining and Residential Programs Building for the Eastern Illinois Foodbank.

Ushma Trivedi, senior in LAS, packaged pasta dishes with her registered student organization Illini Medical Screening Society for the Illini Fighting Hunger project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to get students involved and realize that we arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t in a college bubble,â&#x20AC;?

Trivedi said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are other people out there in the community that really need our help, and whatever we can do as students to help them I think is great.â&#x20AC;?

Liliana Arroyo, sophomore in ACES, volunteered with her fraternity Alpha Psi Lambda. They picked up trash on a portion of the South Quad. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was surprised to find so much trash; we filled two bags,â&#x20AC;? Arroyo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was very humbling to clean. I felt better about myself and helping the community and knowing itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my school, so we should take care of it.â&#x20AC;?

SAA began iHelp in 2006 after looking for a program that would involve as much of the campus as possible. They decided that service was the best way to do that, Shaevel said. iHelp is only the start of the Homecoming volunteer initiative; University alumni can volunteer throughout the week. They will help with window painting and other fun events surrounding Homecoming, said Charlie Sterrett, co-director of alumni outreach at the University of Illinois Alumni Association and sophomore in LAS. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bettering where you live is embodied in the Illini, even post-graduation. Wherever they are in the world, they can do community service for the Alma Mater,â&#x20AC;?

Mr. and Ms. University of Illinois Pageant celebrates African-American culture on campus

BY MARA SHAPIRO CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Choosing the members of the Homecoming Court is selective, but the Illini Union Board African American Homecoming Pageant is more so. The event is hosted annually to celebrate well-rounded individuals at the University. Alumna Melanie Matlock is the reigning Miss University of Illinois.

Matlock was a senior in Media when she ran for Ms. University of Illinois during homecoming week during 2012. She said in an email that she originally had no intention of participating in the pageant.

“First, I was just applying to be nice, and I planned on quitting eventually because pageants are just so not me. But I was like, ‘Hey, when am I ever going to have an opportunity to be in a pageant again?’” Matlock wrote. “I knew it was something that would absolutely push me out of my comfort zone, and those experiences are what define you.”

While the Illini Union Board is known for putting on this pageant to celebrate African American culture on campus, Stuti Mehta, IUB president and senior in Media and LAS, said that the pageant is open for all male and female students who wish to run. Mehta and Kelly Uchima, IUB director of traditional programming and junior in ACES, both said they publicized information about pageant applications through emails, flyers on the Quad,

and visits to classrooms, cultural centers and residence halls.

Both Uchima and Mehta said that applicants must be involved on campus through various organizations. Matlock was involved in the Illini Union Board, NAACP and the mentor program Creating Opportunity, Recognizing Excellence. She also was a strategic intern at the State Farm Research and Development Center. “(The pageant) is a great way to recognize campus leaders,” Mehta said. “It gives credit to people who have achieved a lot of different things on campus.”

Uchima agreed with Mehta, adding that the pageant gives credit to individuals who may not have the opportunity to be recognized otherwise.

“It’s a great opportunity to see a group of students who are not usually celebrated. You get to meet other students who are inspiring,” she said.

Components of the pageant include a talent portion, Q-and-A segment, and display of formal attire. According to Mehta, Matlock painted an awe-inspiring picture in the twominute time period to showcase talents during the pageant.

“The talents are mind-boggling,” Mehta said.

Matlock couldn’t believe she was crowned Ms. University of Illinois, and she was proud

of the accomplishment.

“I was elated after winning. I thought it was the coolest thing ever to be able to say, ‘I’m Ms. U of I!’ I wasn’t selected to be in the homecoming court, so it was very much one of those ‘when one door closes, a better one opens’ moments,” Matlock wrote.

Professionals from various Student Affairs departments judge the pageant, and all students and community members are welcome to attend, Uchima said.

Mehta said the pageant is an important asset to homecoming week.

“Homecoming is a time that all Illini students can come together and celebrate our school. It’s about being an Illini,” Mehta said.

Matlock also had some words of advice for current candidates. This year, five students will be competing in the pageant.

“My advice to current candidates is to view the pageant like a campaign for yourself,” Matlock wrote. “What is the one thing you want the judges to believe and feel about you? How can you tailor each section of the pageant (and) deliver that key message in a different way? ... It’s not so much what you do or say, but how you make the audience feel when you do or say it.”

The Mr. and Ms. University of Illinois Pageant will take place Tuesday at 7 p.m. in the Illini Union’s I-Rooms.

The IUB will also host two related events

for the pageant. A free lunch will be served on the Quad on Monday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., while supplies last. Sbarro will be served as well as orange and blue drinks to celebrate. Vice Chancellor Phyllis Wise is scheduled to attend.

The Illini Union Board will also hold a dance party at CRCE on Saturday. While the event is similar to the pageant in that it celebrates African-American culture, it is open for everyone to attend. The event will also feature DJ Matrix, who has performed at previous Illini Union Board events, including last year’s CRCE dance party and Illinois Union Board Late Nighter event during Welcome Week. Tickets are $10 for students and $15 for non-students.

Some take Illini pride to a new level with their outfits. Fronczak said, “I have a couple of friends who have Illini-themed Spiderman costumes. That would get my vote as the most ridiculous.” Tarleton, however, thinks the vote for the best outfit should go to “a guy who was wearing orange boxers and painted his whole body orange.”

Students on campus express their Illi-

Window decorating contest displays spirit Green Street, Greek houses and dining halls painted orange and blue

BY DECLAN HARTY STAFF WRITER

Wearing orange and blue is a theme and trademark for Illinois game days throughout the year. However, for one week in the fall, campus businessesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; storefronts join in on the tradition.

On Sunday, the seventh annual House and Window decorating contest took place across various locations on campus, in preparation for a week of homecoming activities and the large return of alumni to the University. Twenty-six business storefronts were painted with orange and blue to get ready for the week, including the windows of Subway, Apricot Lane Boutique, Campus Florist, Coldstone Creamery and Jersey Mikeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Subs, among others.

Additionally, several Greek houses and residence halls across the campus were decorated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It sets the mood for students,â&#x20AC;? said Steven Farag, Student Alumni Ambassadors president and senior in Engineering. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do it a week in advance, and it is great because everyone walks down Green Street every day and you can see different vendors, but to see it decked out in orange and blue is a really cool, fun thing to do that builds the energy and spirit. Alumni come back and see it, and they love to see the restaurants they went to still engaging with the student community.â&#x20AC;?

The event was co-hosted by SAA and

Greeks Support Homecoming and included 15 registered student organizations, along with 20 Greek chapters. Nine of the 20 chapters decorated their houses and the remaining 11 painted the windows of businesses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The event really kicks off the homecoming week,â&#x20AC;? said Tricia Maxwell, SAAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vice president of Homecoming and senior in Business. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seeing the windows painted is definitely something people look forward to.â&#x20AC;?

Lauren Gay, director of Greeks Support Homecoming and junior in LAS, said this year both SAA and Greeks Support Homecoming wanted to focus on getting the nonSAA and non-Greek student body involved in homecoming events. The organizations that participated in the event included professional groups such as the American Advertising Federation and leadership organizations, such as the Illinois Student Senate.

Each organization had a different take on homecoming. Designs included paintings of the Block I, references to beating Michigan State and drawings of the Chief Illiniwek, the Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former mascot, all now lining Green Street.

Lauren Feingold, vice president of community outreach for the American Advertising Federation and senior in Media, said this year was the first time AAF had participated in the contest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was coordinated well, and we got to use Illini colors. Our station is at Apricot Lane ... and it was an awesome experience,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Pep rally provides support Students, alumni continue tradition

BY ELISEO ELIZARRARAZ CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Illini football coach Tim Beckman and crew will be looking to stump Big Ten rivals Michigan State on homecoming weekend, and they are looking to the students to bring the necessary support and motivation to get the job done.

Thousands of University students, alumni and fans will flock to the Quad on Friday before the homecoming game to attend the pep rally, hosted by the University of Illinois Alumni Association.

The rally, which will be held at 7 p.m. after the homecoming parade, will feature the Marching Illini, this year’s homecoming court and an appearance by Coach Beckman and the football team.

There will also be comeback guests and recipients of the University of Illinois Alumni Association’s Lou Liay Spirit Award. These guests include industrial design pioneer Jeff D. Brewslow; highly decorated military man Colonel Michael S. McBride; and successful businesswoman and president and CEO of advertising fi rm Energy BBDO, Tonise Paul.

“It’s just important in general to stay connected with alumni in every opportunity we have to be able to invite them back to campus,” said Lynn Chaney,

The Marching Illini does the wave with its instruments before the start of the homecoming pep rally on the steps of Follinger Auditorium on Oct. 27, 2012.

associate director of alumni relations at the alumni association “The (pep rally) has been such a significant part of the homecoming celebration.”

The pep rally has been a staple of homecoming festivities since the University’s storied homecoming inception in 1910.

“The pep rally is probably, along with the parade, the oldest tradition of Homecoming, and Illinois has one of the longest histories of homecoming. It’s kind of a foundation of homecoming,” Chaney said.

Chaney sees Illini fans as the encouragement and motivational support for the Illini to excel. This makes them a critical component to the players’ performance, she said.

“I think that when someone likes what you’re doing and someone supports something that you do, the players work harder,” Chaney said.

Member of 2012 Homecoming Court Esteban Gast recounts duties, experiences and perks

BY REEMA ABI-AKAR STAFF WRITER

Each fall, 10 men and 10 women are handpicked to represent the University in the homecoming court. It takes a rigorous interview process to whittle down the large pool of nominees and applicants, leaving the final 20 with a lot resting on their shoulders.

After being accepted, what exactly are the roles and perks of serving on the court? The Daily Illini spoke to Esteban Gast, graduate student in LAS, about being on the homecoming court in 2012, his senior year.

DAILY ILLINI: Why did you want to be on homecoming court?

ESTEBAN GAST: Well, I was nominated, and I thought it was really cool, and it was a good opportunity. I loved Illinois, and I was really proud and happy to get a chance to represent the University. â&#x20AC;Ś It means a lot that someone has recognized all the hard work youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve put in the last four years and things like that, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of nice to have recognition, especially your senior year.â&#x20AC;?

DI: What was the application process like?

EG: I got an email that said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re nominated, and you have to go into an interview.â&#x20AC;? And the interview is pretty intense. They ask you things like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;How

are you a leader on campus?â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;What does the University of Illinois mean to you?â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; these really big, general, kind of tough questions. â&#x20AC;Ś So you stop and go, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Man, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a big campus, and it feels small, and I love that I know my professors by name, and I love that I have this opportunity.â&#x20AC;? You kind of start realizing, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Man, this is this great place.â&#x20AC;?

DI: What did you do as a member of the homecoming court?

EG: The duties were quite fun and quite fancy. We were in the parade, we got to ride on the back of Corvettes, I got to wave and throw candy at children â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which is just a lifelong dream. â&#x20AC;Ś The University calls back these incredible alumni that have done the coolest things ever. So here I am, shaking hands with this guy who started a nonprofit and this woman who ran a marathon in every continent, all these ridiculous people, and here I am shaking hands with them. â&#x20AC;Ś It was just kind of this surreal thing; we got to go on the field at halftime at the homecoming football game. I got tickets for my family and things like that, so really, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a really exciting, surreal thing.

DI: What was the most memorable part of being on court?

EG: I think going on the field at halftime was pretty cool. (The dinners)

were really fun because the food was delicious. After four years of ramen noodles in my dorms, (it was) kind of nice to have luxurious and delicious food.

DI: What did you get out of the experience overall?

EG: It was kind of cool to meet really inspiring, incredible individuals that accomplished so much. I really felt out of place; everyone there was talking about all their cool accomplishments, you know. So everyone was just very accomplished, and then Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sitting there shaking their hands saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh my goodness, you guys do so much, and you did so much and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so smart.â&#x20AC;?

And so I think just the people that you meet through the other homecoming court members, as well as the alumni, were just so inspiring and so incredible. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a cool feeling talking to, you know, the CEO of this huge multimillion-dollar company, and talking about how he was in Forbes.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something crazy about that and saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh my gosh, that past is itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 75$16/$7,21 &2856(6

so tangible,â&#x20AC;? so that something that â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not easily â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but something that can get accomplished.
