SCHOOL NEWS >> JOLIET CATHOLIC ACADEMY

JCA starting chapter for Habitat for Humanity Work of the Will County chapter is driven by Habitat for Humanity’s international mission

BY MEGANN HORSTEAD For the Bugle @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

Joliet Catholic Academy student Michael Murray said finding a way to giveback to the community in a way that brings great meaning is very important to him.

So when the idea arose to recruit classmates to start a campus chapter to help support Will County Habitat for Humanity, he took action to make it a reality.

“I actually thought of it as a perfect opportunity,” he said. “Years before, I went on a trip to Africa.

[JCA teacher] Mark [Clarke] had been there. My mom being the executive director [of WCHFH], it struck me as a great way to serve.”

The work of the Will County chapter is driven by Habitat for Humanity’s international mission: “… safe, decent and affordable shelter plays an absolutely critical role in helping families to create a new cycle, one filled with possibilities and progress.”

“Our whole is idea with these, is that it is bringing the community together just with the volunteer

experience,” WCHFH Executive Director Nicole Murray said. “It’s our job—as Mr. Clarke knows we’ve talked about—just making sure that when there is a project that they get the full experience.”

A WCHFH campus chapter is already established for students at Providence Catholic High School in New Lenox and another is forming at Plainfield East High School.

Clarke said the idea behind starting a group at JCA surfaced a little more than a year ago when Michael approached him about serving as a sponsor, and he thought it was a wonderful idea.

“It’s just a good opportunity for our kids to get out of school and volunteer, but not just volunteer piecemeal like many high schools have their students, you know have 20 hours,” he said. “This is with an international organization, and it’s more of an educational approach as [Nicole] was saying: students learn different steps, processes that Habitat has set up in their constitution for us to abide by.”

Clarke added, “Habitat for our chapter, like I said gives them a

little more direction as to what they can do. There [are] a lot of different avenues they can go.”

When classes resume this fall, JCA’s campus chapter will typically begin meeting monthly.

Between Will County Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore, neighborhood revitalization programs, home repair services, new construction and rehabs, there are many ways for students to get involved.

“There’s always opportunities, and we just find what’s the best fit for the students at the time,” Nicole said.

Michael said he is excited for the group to start meeting.

“I personally became intrigued because [WCHFH] gives handups, not handouts,” he said. “[Houses] are given in aid to people in need, and they work for it.

I don’t think they should be just given a house. Everyone needs a home. If you’re focused on finding shelter, that’s a key part in anyone’s life. That’s part of why I support Habitat for Humanity.”

To date, the JCA campus chapter has 52 students interested in volunteering.

“The kids are looking forward it,” Clarke said. “It’s gotten a lot of interest.”

Nicole agreed and said the early excitement generated for the campus chapter is easy to pinpoint.

“I think the biggest difference with volunteering or being part of a Habitat—there’s so many charities that you can support—but the one difference that Habitat brings is the whole experience and it’s so tangible,” she said. “If we talk specifically a home, you can see the

shovel go in the ground, and the house is starting to be built, it’s framed, then you see the house completed, then you see a family move in.”

Over its 29 years, WCHFH has put 75 families into homes in Joliet, Crest Hill, Bolingbrook, Lockport and Plainfield “Habitat, it’s a great brand,” Nicole said. “When you say Habitat, there’s not many people that don’t know what Habitat is… I think really because Habitat is such a great brand and knowing what we do.”

Michael said he is looking forward to serving WCHFW. “We have a couple houses to break ground on,” he said.

To start a new Habitat for Humanity campus chapter, contact Ron Novak, assistant executive director, rnovak@habitatwill.org.

College is a good thing ... to a college student 58 percent of Republicans feel college has a negative effect on the country

BY GREG SCHWEM Tribune Content Agency I entered my daughter’s room to find her knee-deep in a pile of cardboard boxes, plastic containers and garbage bags, all stuffed to the gills. The scene resembled someone preparing for, or returning from, the mother of all yard sales.

“What’s with the purge?” I asked.

“Check the calendar, Dad. I head back to college in two weeks. Just getting an early start on packing.”

“So, you’re actually going back?” I said. “To experience what will be known as your junior year?”

She stopped trying to cram a toaster into a container that looked as if it were made for holding little more than toast.

“Why wouldn’t I go back?”

“You’re a Republican, right? You voted for Trump?”

“Yes, and yes,” she confirmed. “But what does that have to do with my decision to complete my college education?”

BY GREG SCHWEM Tribune Content Agency

“You obviously haven’t read the recent Pew Research Center poll,” I said.

“Nobody has polled me about anything,” she replied, and then added, “Wait, some dude at the basketball game last January was asking questions about our Spring Break plans. Was he from Pew?” I enlightened her on the recent poll from the non-partisan fact tank concluding that 58 percent of Republicans feel college has a negative effect on the country, a 13 percent increase over last year. Colleges are still viewed in a favorable light overall, as Democrats overwhelmingly support their existence, according to the poll. And young Republicans such as my 20-year-old daughter still, on average, view college favorably.

But I wanted her views on higher education before dropping her next tuition check in the mail.

“Dad, I can’t think of one negative thing about college,” she said, a sense of panic creeping into her voice that implied I might march her down to a local employment office in the next five minutes and say, “She’s ready to work. Just give her whatever’s available.”

“Does that opinion have anything to do with the fact that you’ll be celebrating your 21st birthday at school this year?” I asked.

“Yes, I mean no, of course not. It’s all about the education, Dad. You want me to have a diploma, right?”

“That was always the goal,” I said.

“But now I wonder what might happen if your first job interview finds you sitting across the desk from some crusty, longtime Republican donor who looks at your college experience on your resume the same way you looked at broccoli when you were 5.”

“That’s another great thing about college,” she said. “I don’t have to eat vegetables.”

“That’s worth the price of tuition,” I said. “But what about the stodgy Republican who may not hire you because of your academic history?”

“I’ll wear a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat to my interview,” she said.

“That should help.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR DEAR EDITOR, Over the past two years, social service agencies and the individuals diagnosed with mental illnesses have been severely impacted by the lack of a state budget. One in five of us, 20 percent of the population, you, your friends, coworkers, parents, children, siblings, peers will struggle in any given year with the challenge of a mental illness.

After the recent passage of a bipartisan budget, it’s important to look at the positive aspects of this development.

As president of the Will-Grundy Affiliate of the National Alliance of Mental Illness, and former caseworker at Cornerstone Services, I have seen firsthand the devastation that the budget crisis has had on members of our community. Local agencies that provide mental health services did everything possible to continue to provide services during the stalemate, including taking out

loans, cutting programs and laying off employees. They did all this to provide minimum services to people in our communities that need it the most.

Services for individuals diagnosed with a mental illness are woefully inadequate at best and without access to affordable mental health services, our clients will not have anywhere to turn for support. Individuals diagnosed with a mental illness will tell you that that meeting the challenges of recovery is like walking up a down escalator. If you do not work hard and make forward progress each and every single day the illness will take you down. When treatment is not available, recovery becomes unlikely; homelessness, substance abuse and crime are the inevitable AND costly result. In the long run, providing mental health services and preventative care is not only the right thing to do, it has a profound cost-savings for the state.

I know there has been a lot of criti-

cism of legislators because they voted for the budget, but continuing down the path we were on would have been catastrophic. The stigma of mental illness persists. Stigma is a mark of disgrace that sets a person apart. When a person is labeled by their illness they are seen as part of a stereotyped group.

Individuals diagnosed with a mental illness are not inherently lazy, violent and unpredictable, do not have a personality flaw, are not “psycho” and certainly are not beyond help. I would personally like to thank State Representative Natalie Manley for making the tough decisions, recognizing the social and economic value of support and recovery and continuing to put the needs of our community first.

SINCERELY, TEENA MACKEY PRESIDENT, NAMI WILL-GRUNDY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT, CORNERSTONE SERVICES

CALLING ALL

CLASSICS Joliet Raceway to host revamped Route 66 Classic, which features affordable fun for the whole famliy

BY MARK GREGORY Sports Editor @Hear_The_Beard mark@buglenewspapers.com

Route 66 Raceway in Joliet features many different events all year for those who love to watch cars go fast – very fast.

On Saturday, Aug. 19, Route 66 will hold another one of those events, however there is a twist.

The 2017 D’Arcy Buick GMC Route 66 Classic, which promises an ‘unprecedented level of content that pays homage to the early days of drag racing and hot rod culture,’ will provide entertainment to gear heads, but there are also events for everyone else.

“The heart and soul of this event is the drag racing and the nostalgia with the 1979 cars and older that will be on the track,” said Sara Palya, Route 66 Communications Director. “But, we have revamped it so now it is not

only about the cars on the track, it is about the cars in the car corral. It is about that hot rod culture, so we incorporated a group called the Chicago Brush Masters who are known for being at the World of Wheels and they do the almost dying art of pin striping, lettering and air brushing.

We have a vintage faire that has anything from vintage records to clothing to furniture. There is a pin up contest, we have two live bands playing vintage music, there is a Mystery Machine bounce house and temporary tattoos for the kids. There really are things for kids to do, for females to do and for gear heads to do. There is something for everybody.”

The price is also something that suits families well.

Tickets for the event are $20 per person, however, for every SEE CLASSICS PAGE 10

COLUMN >> DAVE SAYS

Taking on partners not a good investment DEAR DAVE, I want to build an 18-unit apartment complex, but I don’t have enough cash to do it on my own.

My net worth is around $400,000, and I have $100,000 I can put toward this project. It is estimated to cost $1.2 million. Would lining up investors, who will take a percentage of the profits, be the same thing as acquiring debt?

JAY DEAR JAY, It wouldn’t be the same as taking on debt because if there are no profits, the investors get nothing.

It’s more like taking on partners and what you would call an equity position — meaning they’re owners in the business. They may have only limited rights as owners, but essentially you’re taking on partners.

There’s a method that was used in the old days that’s still available today called syndicating a piece of real estate. You would set yourself up as the general partner and set the investors up as limited partners. They would be limited in their input, because the general partner runs the show. They can be given the lion’s share of the tax write-off, and the depreciation schedule. Traditionally in those models, the gen-

COLLEGE FROM PAGE 6 Not totally satisfied with her answer, I shifted the conversation to other findings from the Pew study.

“What is your view of banks?” I asked. “Positive or negative?”

She didn’t hesitate. “Definitely negative. The ATM across from the student union is, like, always busted.”

“Good to know. My point is, do you think banks and financial organizations are affecting this country negatively? What about churches?

Labor unions? The media?” The Pew study also found markedly different opinions of these institutions, based on political party preference.

“Dad, I’m about to pack my bras.

Can you turn around please?”

I did as I was told but didn’t stop the conversation. “Honey, I’m just curious about whether your political views are impacting your opinions on other organizations. You’re 20 and...”

“Almost 21,” she interrupted gleefully.

“Whatever. I guess I just want to

eral partner takes less of the depreciation schedule but gets a fee for running things and has a position of ownership.

There’s a restriction under Blue Sky Laws on the number of limited partnership units allowed before it becomes a situation where you’re selling stock. Check with your state and current securities laws to be sure of the exact number to avoid any impropriety. You can do a limited partnership or syndicate a piece of real estate, but they can both be very messy and time consuming for the money you get out of it.

Honestly, I don’t think it’s a good method for you to buy an apartment complex at this stage of your investing life. It’s more like a way for you to get into the business of running a bunch of limited partners with a ton of paperwork and bookkeeping thrown in. It doesn’t sound like a lot of fun to me.

If I were in your shoes, I’d use the $100,000 in cash to buy a moneymaking property — maybe a nice rental house. Then, save your money, invest and buy another one.

And again, save the money, invest and buy another one, over and over again. It’s a gradual process, but I don’t teach or advise people to go into partnerships or borrow

be ready for a world where I may have trouble finding a place to worship. Or deposit my social security check, provided there’s enough money for me to actually receive a check. Or turn on the local news at 11 p.m.”

“You’re never awake at 11,” she said. I sensed the conversation was ending. “Have fun at school, honey,” I said. “Just promise me that you’ll find a Democrat, have some serious conversations and try to find common ground on issues. That’s what this country needs right now.”

“Not a problem,” she said. “I do know two of my roommates voted for Hillary. Yet we’re ALL in agreement that we should go to Cancun for Spring Break.” Pew researchers, are you listening?
