Illini Success, an annual survey of University graduates, has released its first three-year trend data, which shows trends for employment, higher education and alternative paths for all undergraduate degrees. The survey showed from 2014 to 2017, between 84 and 89 percent of graduates have secured a first destination. Approximately 73 percent of the students participated in the survey, on average. The campus-wide Illini Success initiative collects data by graduation year and from graduates in August, December and May. Julia Panke Makela, associate director for assessment and research at the Career Center, said Illini Success was developed to more thoroughly track what students were doing after graduation. “We find that this data is incredibly important for academic programming on campus, program review and is also important for our campus as we talk about accreditation, government relations and how the University contributes to the state,” Makela said. She was surprised by how quickly the whole university got behind the effort. “I thought it was going to take a long time, but it felt like I was selling chocolate,” she said. “It takes a campus-wide initiative to pull off something this big.” Illini Success has been working to compile a three-year trend to put the data in context. The trends show a strong and steady picture of graduSEE SUCCESS | 3A

Department of Energy funds biofuel research BY SAMANTHA BOYLE STAFF WRITER

The University received a $10.6 million grant from the Department of Energy to form new methods of creating biofuels that might reduce dependence on oil as a source of fuel. “You’re no longer at the mercy of the oil market,” said Stephen Long, director of Renewable Oil Generated with Ultra-productive Energycane project. ROGUE will work to create bioenergy in a more efficient way through Geneti-

cally Modified Organisms in plants. Donald Ort, deputy director for ROGUE, said the project is looking to use sugarcane-related plants instead of soybeans to create a more productive way to make biodiesel. “Most of the biodiesel right now is coming from soybeans or canola oil,” Ort said. Instead of having the plants create sucrose like they normally do, Ort said, SEE BIOENERGY | 3A

ICE to conduct searches in CU BY YASMEEN RAGAB STAFF WRITER

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrived in Champaign-Urbana at the beginning of March and began to conduct searches for undocumented immigrants, Brian Dolinar said. Dolinar, an author and activist at the Independent Media Company in Champaign, has documented more than 100 incidents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement since August of 2015. One undocumented immigrant was found and taken in by ICE at Siam

Terrace, a restaurant in downtown Urbana, and numerous others are often taken in as “collateral,” Dolinar said. Detainees are then taken to the ICE office in St. Louis and then to the Pulaski County Detention Center in Ullin, Illinois. The 2017 Fiscal Year ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Report summarizes the activities of ICE and Enforcement and Removal Operations from the year. “ERO identifies, arrests and removes aliens who present a danger to national security or a threat to

Engineering students develop beekeeping device BY MEGAN XU STAFF WRITER

A team of University electrical and computer engineering students and their adviser found a way to collect data from beehives without opening the hives. Opening a beehive in cooler temperatures can often be fatal for bees, but the team’s wireless monitoring system can help beekeepers collect data safely. WaggleNet is a sensor placed in beehives that can read temperature and humidity, and beekeepers can use it at the Illinois Bee Research Facility to collect data on their computers in real time. “There’s a general curiosity with beekeepers as to what’s going on inside the honey bee colonies, especially during the winter time when we are unable to access the indoor colony because of the weather,” said Alison Sankey, Bee Research Facility manager and beekeeper. Sankey said it is always nice to have more information about what the bees are doing during the winter time. Beekeepers try to avoid opening up the colonies when the temperature is below 50 degrees, so the WaggleNet device gives them more information than just observing from

the outside, she said. Sankey said there is no need to open up the colony to see if they are still alive because honey bees form a cluster during the winter and maintain a certain temperature range in the hive depending on their activities. “If the temperature and humidity are around the certain point, you can assume that the colony bees are still alive in the hive,” she said. WaggleNet was developed by Jimmy He and Xiaolin Wu, sophomores in Engineering, led by lecturer in Engineering

Christopher Schmitz. He said the diversity in their team is the project’s lifeblood. “Professor Schmitz, being a professional beekeeper and an ECE instructor, offered valuable firsthand suggestions on our strategic planning,” He said. “I, being a user experience designer myself, give some ideas on product design as well as feasibility of manufacturing.” He said Wu, as a relatively new member, gave the team a lot of unique ideas and thoughts while she learned the technical

aspects and caught up with the team’s development. WaggleNet does not require direct internet connection. He said it is unique in a way that it works like a children’s telephone game — if the internet-facing router is out of range, WaggleNet can leverage neighbors’ connections to transmit messages until it reaches the internet. In the future, the WaggleNet team plans to improve the device’s solar capabilities so it can last longer without charging. mengjia2@dailyillini.com

Interims call for permanent hires Early voting

locations added

BY JIEJIE WANG STAFF WRITER

One-fifth of the dean positions and a quarter of the vice chancellorships at the University are currently held by interims, according to University Spokeswoman Robin Kaler. “The Universit y is almost always hiring,” Kaler said in an email. According to the Illinois Human Resources website, the University is currently hiring for 185 positions. Andreas Cangellaris, Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and Provost at the University, said in an email that an interim position is held by someone serving between two permanent candidates. If a dean resigns or returns to the faculty, an interim dean occupies the position before a permanent dean can be named. “The interim position has no limit, but we like to fill the permanent positions as soon as we can,” Cangellaris said. “I usually reach out to the faculty and ask for nominations, and I also speak with the college’s executive committee about nominations.” Cangellaris said it is not normally encouraged for someone in an interim role to apply for the permanent position. “An interim position does not require a full search. When we fill a position permanently, we need to ensure we have allowed full consideration of all interested, qualified candidates,” Cangellaris said. Cangellaris said he is responsible for filling all the positions that report to him, which includes deans. Each dean is then responsible for all the positions that report to them, such as department heads. “To fill our high-level administrative interim positions in academic units, we look for tenured faculty members with experience in other administrative roles,” Cangellaris said. Wojtek Chodzko-Zajko, dean of the Graduate College and interim dean of Media, has been in the interim position for 20 months. “Right now, we have a whole bunch of dean searches going on,” Chodzko-Zajko said. “It’s not a bad idea, sometimes, to have an interim dean in that position, but normal-

ly, it should be faculty from the same background.” Chodzko-Zajko said that as interim dean, he works to support the departments in delivering their academic programs “I don’t think an interim would never be considered,” Chodzko-Zajko said. “But in my case, I absolutely would never apply to be the dean of the College of Media because I already have a big job — the dean of the Graduate College. I don’t see myself having the expertise to lead that college long term.” Nancy Benson, interim head of the journal-

ism department, is in her second year in the interim position. “A permanent department head will be named by the end of the semester, a position I did not apply for because I am not interested in the permanent position,” Benson said in an email. John Wilkin, dean of Libraries and University librarian, was interim provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs from last February to January this year. Deans are first appointed for a five-year term, but their terms may be

renewed. Wilkin said interim positions may become permanent, but it generally depends on the result of the search. Wilkin said in some cases, people who are in interim positions may declare they do not intend to be in the permanent positions. “I was in my dean position for four years when I stepped into the interim Provost role,” Wilkin said. “When I accepted the responsibility for the interim Provost role, I made it clear that I intended to go back to the library.” jiejiew2@dailyillini.com

BIOENERGY ROGUE wants to find a way to convert it into vegetable oils that can be converted into biodiesel fuel. “What we would be producing from these plants would be exactly what is coming from soybean and exactly what is coming out of canola already . . . so there’re no mysteries there,” Ort said. The $10.6 million grant will be used to fund things, such as equipment, consumable materials, personnel, researchers and publicity, said Li-Qing Chen, who works with transporting sugar from the plants. She said the University will benefit from this DOE grant because ROGUE is bringing money directly to the University. Before this project began, the University was involved in another three-year study where researchers wanted to develop sugarcane to accumulate oil in the stem, to be less susceptible to lower temperatures and increase efficiency in photosynthesis, Ort said. “We were able to do all three of those to some extent, but we did them individually, so we didn’t stack them into one plant,” he said. If they are successful in this project, project director Long said, biodiesel will be

Hulten said the purpose of early voting is to allow voters to choose the location, time and method of voting that is most convenient for them and to encourage them to participate in the elections. Hulten said this expansion of early voting locations is the expansion typically done for countywide elections. “Demand for early voting usually increases as election day approaches,” he said in an email.

ate success. Although the National Association of Colleges and Employers has not yet released its data for the graduating class of 2016-2017, Makela expects the University to exceed the national level. “When you put Illinois against national numbers coming out from NACE, in our first two years, we exceeded national averages in terms of percentages of students securing a first destination,” she said. Makela hopes to turn the data into a career exploration tool, while continuing to ensure that it is private and confidential. “We’re very concerned about data security and limits on who has access.” she said. “What I want is for students to get meaning out of and to be able to use this data.” Gail Rooney, director of career services and associate dean of leadership and career development, said the next step for Illini Success is the development of a student portal. It is already possible for faculty and staff to utilize a portal to view data specific to their departments. “A student portal will allow students to look at all of their different options,” Rooney said. “We want students to be able to go in msf3@dailyillini.com

much more accessible. He also said concerns about carbon dioxide emissions were a big reason for striving to create more bioenergy fuels. Ort said the decrease of atmospheric carbon dioxide levels comes from the burning of fossil fuels. Using bioenergy would keep the process of creating and using biofuels carbon-neutral. The oil in the plants will also be converted into biojet

fuels, which is only slightly more complicated than regular biodiesel, Long said. “As the transportation industry wants to move to low-carbon fuels, it is very difficult to see how aircrafts, in particular, jets used by the military and used by the major commercial airlines could run on anything but jet fuels,” Long said. He said batteries are not an option for planes and jets, so biofuel is the best option.

Long said in order to make the process of creating biofuel more successful, the crops will be grown on marginal land and will work to turn 20 percent of the stem mass into oil. “If we could get this to work, I think it would be great for the University because we would be a part of a revolution in diesel and jet fuel supply,” Long said. sjboyle2@dailyillini.com

and compare programs for decision-making.” Rooney and Makela agree the reports break stereotypes about employment and salaries for majors in different colleges. “The report might help students say, ‘Hey Mom and Dad, look, these people are getting jobs,’” Rooney said. Jessica Hogue, director of Media Career Services, said she hopes to improve the response rate of graduate students from the College of Media to improve the data’s reliability. “We went from an 85 percent response rate last year to 87 percent this year, but my goal is to break that 90 percent response rate, so we can see a full picture of what students are doing,” Hogue said. The College of Media uses data from Illini Success in handouts for new students and enrolled students. The data is also discussed during presentations for the parents of incoming Media students, Hogue said. “It’s great to educate students on what graduates are actually doing when they leave here versus what it seems like or what the rumor-mill has said,” she said. “It’s a great way to show students employers they may not have thought of.”

Kevin Garcia, freshman in LAS and Business and vice president of Illinois Coalition Assisting Undocumented Students’ Education, said in an email there is not much they can do about immigration raids. I-CAUSE helps keep undocumented students educated on their statuses and delivers ally training in conjunction with La Casa, where they educate staff, faculty and other students of what it means to be an undocumented student, Garcia said. “The only thing we would be able to do is share the information (with) the community on when these raids would be taking place,” he said. “As we are not legal attorneys, neither we nor La Casa give legal advice. I-CAUSE’s mission is simply to commit to service and advocacy working in solidarity with the undocumented community.”

They inform the Public Safety Communications Center for Champaign County, or METCAD 9-1-1, before arriving to prevent conf licts with local police searches of undocumented immigrants assumed to be missing. Gioconda Perez, director of La Casa Cultural Latina, said ICE coming to town is not new. “It might distress some of the students, but I think it would distress anybody,” Perez said.

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS OFFICIAL NOTICE

Research Memorandum #312

LIST OF TEACHERS RANKED AS EXCELLENT BY THEIR STUDENTS

FALL 2017 (Based on Data Collected FALL 2017)

The results for the FALL 2017 administration of student ratings of instructors are included in this list. Results are based on Instructor and Course Evaluation (ICES) questionnaire forms maintained by Measurement and Evaluation, Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning. More than one half of the faculty is estimated to have used student rating forms, but a substantial number have not. Therefore, the report is necessarily incomplete. Instructors who did not have students evaluate their classes or chose to use a form other than those reported here have no opportunity to be included. For some instructors who did use these forms, there is also the possibility that they received ratings that were not truly representative of their teaching ability. For these reasons, in the past we adopted the title “An Incomplete List of Teachers Ranked as Excellent by Their Students.” These reasons still hold and the list is still ‘incomplete’ but we have taken “Incomplete” out of the title. The results are presented in department alphabetical order. Criteria for inclusion follows. PREPARATION OF RESULTS This list is based on ICES forms completed by students during the Fall semester of 2017. Only those instructors who gave out ICES forms at least once during this time period and

A continuation of the $2 per semester fee supporting renewable energy and energy conservation projects at the University, which the Student Sustainability Committee manages, passed, 3,117 to 455. A continuation of the $12.06 per semester student fee to support sustainability projects on campus, which the SSC also manages, passed, 2,878 to 648. A continuation of the $12.94 per semester Legacy of Service and Learning Scholarship fee passed, 2,598 to 900. The scholarship assists students who are willing to participate in community service. The only referendum that failed 3,133 to 1,700 reads as follows: Shall the University divest, or withdraw investments, from specified companies in the University’s BlackRock portfolio that actively normalize, engage in, or fund human rights violations as defined by the United Nation’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights? In addition to passing and failing referendums, the new student government for the University was also elected. The results are as follows:

FROM 1A

LILLIAN spends our weeks balancing work and school. The schedule change tipped the scale. The first job of an editor-in-chief is to keep the paper running. Whether that means creating an untested workflow or keeping a staff of different personalities from imploding, day-to-day issues take priority. I’m also a fan of tradition. I love print journalism even as it struggles to keep up with the digital age. I was faced with a clash between trying to stand by what I had been taught to do and what I knew editors before me had done versus adapting to a constantly changing industry. Often, the same issues with news publications that make national news — ideological bubbles, revenue loss and job cuts — trickle down, even to college publications. In a year with a notably relentless news cycle, when disagreement means “fake news,” the stakes and expectations are high for every journalist. So, thank you to our readers who pick up a paper every day or who let us know when we’ve written something you like. Like every editor-inchief I’ve worked with, I will end my tenure on 5 p.m. Friday. Abby Paeth will take over for me, and I look forward to what she and her staff will accomplish. We’ll keep writing, and we’ll keep listening. I hope you’ll keep reading. lbarkle2@dailyillini.com

like a hopeless chore? I propose that the answer lies inside the core of humanity. I realize saving the ocean is not our biggest problem; before we invest in Earth, we should recognize that we are the problem. Although we may be accidentally destructive creatures, we have the agency and resources to act. Change begins with empathy for humanity. Along with respecting nature, we need to feed the impoverished and shelter the homeless. In order to have worldwide success, we need to focus on the bigger picture. Thankfully, many organizations fight to combat ocean pollution, but despite the desire to free the oceans from waste, manufacturing corporations will not stop generating plastic. Understand that there

is no easy solution. Even if everyone is aware of marine pollution, our consumption and production outweighs our stewardship. But that doesn’t mean our efforts are fruitless. Future pollution is preventable through folding up those empty pizza boxes, using your recycling bin and tearing up soda rings. We can reduce the usage of plastic products, fight to keep beaches clean, educate ourselves about pollution and support ocean-protecting organizations. Not only our future is at stake — our children’s is as well. Humanity deserves better than what it has right now. We are the problem, but we can also be the solution.

Marijuana vote attracts young people AUSTIN STADELMAN COLUMNIST

A

growing number of people across the United States are in favor of the legalization of marijuana. As a result, marijuana has been legalized in nine states (and Washington, D.C.) and decriminalized in 13 other states. One of the states in which it is decriminalized in is Illinois, and soon, it may be the next state to legalize it. On March 1, the Illinois Senate passed a measure to ask whether the state of Illinois should legalize marijuana for recreational use. It now sits in the house, in which it is most likely to pass, and then will go to Governor Rauner’s desk. Whether he will sign the measure or not is unclear, considering in the past the governor has made statements against legalization. If the question were to make it onto the ballot, a crucial detail must be understood: this voter

referendum is merely advisory. The Illinois constitution does not allow for laws to be enacted by voter referenda, but it does allow for non-binding referenda. This means the result of the vote is a suggestion to Springfield about what should be done about the issue. Does this make the vote less crucial? Sure. Does it make it irrelevant? Absolutely not. If the results of the vote are heavily in favor of legalization, it would serve as a strong suggestion to Springfield by the people of Illinois that they want to be the next state to legalize marijuana and reap the benefits other states are receiving. However, as aforementioned, Governor Rauner is opposed to legal marijuana, hinting that if he remains in office after this election, the referendum may prove meaningless even if a vast majority of Illinois votes in favor of legalization. This is where political strategy plays a role. For every policy that is

established or rhetorical statement that is made, there’s usually a political reason for it. This is no exception. The idea for placing this question on the ballot is crafted by Democrats in attempt to draw out young voters; nearly 70 percent of millennials believe that marijuana should be legalized. Since youth voter turnout is historically the lowest of the age groups, the strategy is that by placing an issue that is highly advocated for by young people, whether political or apolitical, it will draw them to the polls. Young people tend to be more liberal, and for those who may be singleissue voters, such as with marijuana, the average young person is more likely to vote for whoever has a “D” by their name. It helps that the two front-runners for the Democratic primary for governor, J.B. Pritzker and State Senator Daniel Biss, are both in favor of legalization. That is not to claim that Democrats hav-

ing a strategy behind this referendum makes it nefarious or any less meaningful. Every political action has a strategic reason behind it. The situation should be viewed as a potential for mutual benefit for both Democrats and legal marijuana advocates, 74.4 percent of whom are in Illinois. If Senator Biss or

Pritzker wins the governorship this fall, likely by defeating Governor Rauner, the advisory referendum could have a real chance at catalyzing legislation that could make Illinois the next state to legalize recreational marijuana. Austin is a sophomore in Media. aas3@dailyillini.com

EDITORIAL

Seek truth and spread it

T

ime’s Up. #Metoo. The student reactions to the Parkland shooting. Political unrest within the Trump administration. All of these movements and events were propelled by a call to action. It wasn’t a coincidence that each new initiative occurred within only two months of another. For the Silence Breakers, it was decades of keeping quiet. For the Parkland survivors, it was countless school shootings. There is a common denominator in all of them that we can learn from. Recognize the power of using your voice. All the change you want to see in the world starts with you. Don’t wait for others to speak up. Sometimes, actions and results take a while, and you may not be believed at first, but don’t give up pursuing the truth. After all, it took over 30 years and dozens of allegations — despite almost all of Hollywood knowing — to finally put Harvey Weinstein in his place. It took two decades and 368 allegations for Larry Nassar to spend the rest of his life in prison. As student journalists, this realization of how powerful our voices can truly be — no matter how young, inexperienced or knowledgeable people tell us we are — propels us forward. We strive to tell the truth, even if sometimes that truth isn’t what people want to hear. Our job is not sugar-coating, but instead being a catalyst for change. While journalism is how we choose to use our voices, there are countless ways to speak up, and a degree in journalism or a position at a publication isn’t required. Remember that although the truth is hard to stomach at times, it is ultimately good. Seeking truth isn’t about ruining someone’s career or making lives difficult; it is meant to push for societal change so future generations can have it better. We do it because it’s the right thing to do. It doesn’t matter if you’re a student, government employee or someone who watches the news every night. You have the same ability. And yet too often people turn a blind eye to the truth. When nine accusations of sexual misconduct are made against a politician, there’s a power in numbers. No amount of money, pardons or endorsements should be able to save them. And despite all this, Roy Moore almost won the U.S. Senate special election in Alabama last December. Swallow your pride and set aside the politics. Certain things in life are innately wrong, including sexual assault, mass shootings and oppression. After The Daily Illini turnover at the end of spring break, when a new group of student journalists take over the Editorial Board and the newsroom, the goal will always be to call out those wrongs and to seek all sides of the story. It shouldn’t matter if it concerns your childhood best friend or even politicians or celebrities who are more powerful than you by societal standards. There’s always the risk you won’t be believed, but hold your own and don’t back down if it’s something you feel strongly about. Speak up, and make sure it’s true.

Special Olympics sports director, Jackie Walk, makes it possible Walk fosters a positive space for children, adults with disabilities BY MARISSA PLESCIA STAFF WRITER

Jackie Walk has worked with the Special Olympics since the fifth grade. Her mom always volunteered and would bring Walk along, so she too would often volunteer at different competitions. After graduating from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, she continued her work with the Special Olympics and took a job when her friend told her about an opening. Now 38 years old, Walk is the sports director of Special Olympics Illinois Eastern Prairie/Area Eight. “It’s always been something that I’ve wanted to work with, and I finally got the opportunity,” Walk said. Special Olympics Illinois has 17 sports for children and adults with disabilities to participate in. The events are year-round with Olympic-type sports. “Part of the goal is really to get as many athletes involved in our program as possible,” Walk said. “We don’t charge athletes to participate, and we don’t just focus on sports.” Walk has worked with the organization for eight years. She was the area director,

ZORBAS Montgomery described Zorbas as one of his favorite places to hang out. Colton Morris, Zorbas’ general manager, said they get a lot of University alumni who visit the restaurant, and it’s really cool to hear about their stories from the past. “That’s my favorite part about working here,” Anastasiadis said. “People that come in, and they’re like, ‘I used to come in here 30 years ago,’ or ‘I went to school here 20 years ago, and I’m glad it’s still open.’” Both Morris and Anastasiadis agree that the busiest time of day for Zorbas is at lunchtime year-round. However, the restaurant wants to attract a bigger dinner crowd as well.

but the company did some restructuring this year and she is now the sports director. For her job, Walk oversees all the competitions in the region and helps with coach

training, physicals for athletes and the wellness program. With the restructuring of the organization, Walk went from overseeing 600 athletes to 1,450. Walk said it is an amazing

“Nighttime is ... when we have some of the best deals to try and get people in,” Morris said. “We’re thinking about launching (dinner style) plates,” Anastasiadis said. “We’re gonna do kids eat free after 5 o’clock during weekdays coming up soon.” Morris describes food preparation at Zorbas as “fast-paced.” “Our biggest thing is to try and get everything prepped and out as soon as possible,” Morris said. Zorbas takes care of its more intensive food preparation in the morning, like making the restaurant’s sauces. Anastasiadis said they make all their sauces inhouse. All of their vegetables are cut fresh daily, and their meat is put out daily as well. This happens all in the morning before they open.

Anastasiadis said Zorbas has a unique gyro sauce. It’s not exactly tzatziki sauce; it’s their own special blend, and people love it, she said. “I’ve been to so many gyro shops in Greece, in Chicago, and I’ve never tasted anything like it,” she said. Anastasiadis attributes Zorbas’ success partially to the longevity of the establishment. She said she tries to care about her customers by being at the restaurant every day and trying to build relationships, making sure everyone has a great time. Zorbas also refrains from being wasteful by helping the community. Morris said whenever the kitchen accidentally makes food that was not initially ordered, it gives the extra food to the homeless on

experience to be part of the Special Olympics. “I’ve been here and watched some of these athletes start when they were 8 years old and now they’re all getting their driver’s license

and going to high school,” Walk said. “It’s just really cool to see them grow.” Walk has a personal connection to the organization as well. Her cousin, Grant, did track and field for the Special Olympics, and she volunteered at his events. Her nephew’s friend, Victor, has Down syndrome, and Walk has witnessed their friendship firsthand through the Special Olympics. “Now they’re both 13 years old and they’re still like the best of buds,” Walk said. “My nephew volunteers for the Special Olympics, and Victor is still an athlete.” Walk’s favorite part of the organization is competition day where she gets see the athletes use their training and form friendships with kids from other towns. “It’s really cool to get to see (teams) all come together and rekindle their friendships and seeing them compete,” Walk said. One of Walk’s favorite memories of the organization is the time she was watching a bocce ball game with an older team playing a younger and less experienced team. She said the older team purposely threw the competition so they could help teach the other team how to compete. Joanie Keyes is Walk’s supervisor and has worked for the organization for 27 years. Keyes said Walk is energetic and enthusiastic. “She’s very focused on

doing what’s best for the athletes and their families and providing good quality competition for the athletes,” Keyes said. Kathleen Hjort and her daughter, Emmerson Williams, have witnessed Walk in action. Hjort is a basketball coach for the Special Olympics and Williams is an athlete. “Jackie is a superwoman,” Hjort said. “She’s just on the go all the time, trying to get new programs (and) everything organized. And in the midst of everything she does for the Special Olympics, she actually gets to know the athletes really well.” Hjort and Williams said Walk genuinely cares for all the athletes, and they describe her as a friend to everyone. “She’s amazing,” Williams said. “We love her.” What Walk wants people to know about the Special Olympics is it is not just one competition. Events are always going on with all different types of sports. She also describes the organization as a family affair. “We always say the Special Olympics is like a family,” Walk said. “When we have people emailing me wanting to get their children or grandchildren or whoever wants to get involved, I always end it with, ‘Welcome to the Special Olympics family,’ because it really is one big family.” plescia3@dailyillini.com

Green Street. They also try to provide the homeless in the area with meals on major holidays, like Thanksgiving and Christmas. “We’ll be slow, and we’ll take out samples, and we’ll

take them food as well,” Morris said. “I think it’s a big thing that we kind of pride ourselves on is not being wasteful.” Anastasiadis believes it takes a certain kind of personality to run a restaurant.

“It’s different every day,” she said. “It’s fast-paced. It’s hard work, really hard work, and the hours never end ... Stick with it, and, hopefully, you’ll do well.” parina2@dailyillini.com

Bridges to Prosperity is in the midst of planning its third trip to a community in need of a bridge in a developing country. This year, four of the chapter members from the University will be traveling to Bolivia over the summer. Bridges to Prosperity is a national organization that plans and constructs bridges for communities in need in other countries. There are chapters at universities where students can plan and receive real-world experience while giving back. This will be the organization’s third trip, since its chapter is only 2 years old. There are 30 people involved in the organization, and all of them work toward planning the construction of the bridge together. Many of the members involved in the club are engineering majors because they want to get involved in extracurriculars for their major, but all majors are welcome to join. The money to fund these trips comes from the national organization, but some of the funding is also raised through sponsors, university departments supporting study abroad programs and the students on the trip. Each year, the national organization chooses where the bridges will go based off what site has the biggest need and is technically feasible. Chapters submit applications and then decide which chapter will go where. This summer, students will spend six weeks in Bolivia with University of Colorado Boulder’s Bridges to Prosperity chapter. “The trip this year is special because we’re going with CU Boulder, and we’ll be able to collaborate with them and learn from them because of

Students from Bridges to Prosperity University chapter went to Paztula, a town located in the mountains under the municipality of Joyabaj in Guatemala, in summer 2016 to build a bridge.

all the experience they have,” said Fangxing Liu, junior in Engineering. Liu joined the chapter when it first originated two years ago. Liu is the marketing committee leader, where

she collaborates with her team to design the website, T-shirts and flyers. There are three committees that make up Bridges to Prosperity, which are fundraising, marketing and

external relations. Fundraising often reaches out to local shops to donate a percentage of profits on planned days to their trip. “It was a very interesting and profound experience.

who live in the communities and explained how much of a difference the organization makes in their lives. Last year, Wang traveled to Panama and worked with the people there, which helped her become more motivated while implementing the bridge. They only stayed for four weeks in Panama, and they’ll be staying for over a month this year in Bolivia. Wang said the group gets to know each other extremely well and bonds over the time spent there. Sam Kottoor, sophomore in Engineering, has spent the past year as part of Bridges to Prosperity. Kottoor ran the Instagram page and is the cultural relations manager for the trip this year. Kottoor joined Bridges to Prosperity because he wanted a club that was aligned with his major in civil engineering but was also servicealigned. Kottoor enjoys being in a club that is much smaller than most others, so he can connect and get to know everyone. After traveling to Panama last year, Liu learned to expect the unexpected from the weather. She said they experienced showers of rain each day around 3 p.m. She said this year will be different because they will be staying longer than previous years. “Staying for six weeks will be interesting because of our living conditions and sleeping in sleeping bags, but being with everyone is really fun,” Liu said. Kottoor said the bridges make a huge difference in the communities and gives them easier access to get to school, more job opportunities due to being able to reach other communities and access to food, water and other supplies. “I definitely get something out of it. I’ve learned so much just about relating to people,” Kottoor said. “Taking this cultural course, where I’ve learned about how to approach service opportunities, and I think that’s formed me to be a better person.”

Designing the bridges, starting from scratch, doing it by our self and actually traveling there just changes everything,” said Yanbing Wang, senior in Engineering. Wang described the people features@dailyillini.com

Local restaurant Zorbas continues strong 45 years later BY PARI APOSTOLAKOS STAFF WRITER

Zorbas is one of the longest reigning restaurants on Green Street. At Illinois, Zorbas has been around since 1973 and has become almost synonymous with the University among alumni and students alike. Zorbas has undergone many changes since it first came to Champaign and has had three owners during its 45-year run. One of the current owners is Eleni Anastasiadis, who runs the

restaurant with her brother. Both University alumni, the pair will have owned Zorbas for a year in April. Anastasiadis said the hardest part of transitioning ownership was pleasing the restaurant’s regular customers, who were sad to see the previous owner leave. “They all had ... a special bond with him, and he was here every day,” Anastasiadis said. She believes the biggest misconception about her is she is an “absentee own-

er,” meaning that she does not manage the restaurant herself though she is the owner. “My brother and I, we’re Greek — we both own this place together. My dad comes in regularly ... so I’m here all the time,” she said. Anastasiadis said her family has always been selfemployed, and it was always a dream of her father’s to enter the restaurant business. She hopes he can become even more involved in the restaurant once he retires.

A nother misconception Anastasiadis hopes to change is that people believe Zorbas has changed for the worse under the new ownership. All the recipes are still the same, Anastasiadis said. However, she has made some additions to the Zorbas menu, adding Chicago- style hot dogs and Italian beef. Some bigger changes have happened at Zorbas years before Anastasiadis took over the establishment. A fire occurred in 2011

on the upper level of Zorbas, and the restaurant was closed for a year to repair and remodel. Anastasiadis said it was mostly due to water damage. Zorbas also used to have a liquor license and a smoke lounge in the back of the restaurant in days-gone-by. Anastasiadis has also been told by many alumni that they recall Zorbas hosting a Jazz Night, which was popular among its patrons. Many of the Illini Athletics memorabilia, which adorns the walls of Zor-

bas, was donated by Jerry Montgomery, who has been a faithful Zorbas customer since its conception in 1973. Montgomery accumulated many of the Illini posters he donated to the restaurant because he is a big fan of the University’s sports teams. “I decided that I needed to find a place for them so that when I was dead and gone, somebody would be able to enjoy them,” Montgomery said.

A giant “MAYBE INTERVIEW” across the top of my application really struck a chord. Not because I was insulted I knew I wasn’t the most obvious hire in the world. I was a freshman whose only newspaper experience was writing a competitive eating column for my monthly high school newspaper. No, this struck a chord because it caused me to reflect on my first two and a half years of college in a way that I had never done before. It made me realize my life was so close to being completely different. After literally days of thinking about it, the only conclusion I came to was, "Thank god they hired me." But who is "they"? My first thank you goes out to my first editor, Sean Hammond. If you would have swayed the other way and not hired me, I can’t even begin to imagine how different my life would have been. Long story short, I would have never become a journalist. I would not have made it my major. I would never have thought about reporting, and at the time, it wouldn’t have bummed me out that much because I didn’t know this was what I wanted to do. If anyone told me I would eventually become

Illini fall short in championship BY BRIAN BINZ STAFF WRITER

For a moment, it seemed like the roller coaster season of the Illinois men’s hockey team had one last thrill in it against Adrian College. Instead, the ride was over, and the Illini returned home with a second place finish in the ACHA national tournament after falling 8-1. David Kellner scored a goal early in the second

period to pull the Illini to within one goal after falling behind 2-0 in the opening frame; however, that rally was squashed by a threegoal run that gave Adrian a decisive 5-1 advantage. It was an anticlimactic end to a postseason run that was the longest in nine years, marked by close wins along the way. Illinois won three dramatic games in three days, including an overtime win

The Illini defeated the Beavers 4-2 behind a second-period Thomas Kolaz goal and a full-ice, emptynet goal from senior James McGing, the last of his col-

legiate career. McGing and the Illinois offense were held mostly in check in the title game, only mustering 29 shots to Adrian’s 41. “From the drop of the puck, we didn’t execute any part of the game plan,” Illinois head coach Nick Fabbrini said. “Bad night to have a bad night.” It wasn’t just Illinois’ regular offense that struggled, as the special teams play

Oestreich is Hartleb, Illini on the right track finding her place within the team BY GAVIN GOOD

ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR

From California, Oestreich makes CU her home BY MEGHAN REST STAFF WRITER

Being “the new girl” can be scary. But for junior pitcher Emily Oestreich, it wasn’t so bad. Oestreich’s journey to Illinois began at Vintage High School in Napa, California. By her senior year, she had collected two All-State honors, an MEL Pitcher of the Year title and a spot in FloSoftball’s top-100 recruiting rankings. But instead of making the jump to a Division I program like some of her teammates, Oestreich opted to attend Lake Land College in Mattoon, a junior college that competes at the NJCAA Division I level. According to Oestreich, she had committed to a Division I program during high school. However, due to undisclosed reasons, she decided to play for a junior college for the first two years.

“I was originally committed to a D1 and then some stuff happened. (Lake Land) was my second option,” Oestreich said. “I did that because I knew I wanted to continue to play softball, and that (community college) has a really good record of moving people on to D1 programs.” It wasn’t a bad second choice, either. At Lake Land, Oestreich received secondteam NJCAA All-American honors in 2017, and she was a third-team All-American in 2016. She also finished her career as a Laker with the school records for wins, strikeouts, starts, innings pitched and shutouts. After her outstanding performances in high school and community college, Oestreich attracted the attention of Illinois head coach Tyra Perry. According to Perry, the pitcher stood out as a product of her competition — someone the Illini needed on their pitching staff. “She’s from California and it’s a state that has a history of a lot of strong pitchers coming out of that area,” Perry said. “We knew she had played tough competition throughout her high school and travel season, and had a good transition to ju-co SEE IOTW | 2B

Ben Troike broke new ground last weekend. The sophomore stepped up to the plate, waited for the right pitch and then belted one over the left field fence. It was his first collegiate home run. When he was making his way around the bases, his eyes met third base and hitting coach Adam Christ, had a bright smile that stretched across his face. “Off the bat, I took off out of the box, I was just running hard and I heard the dugout yell,” Troike said. “I looked up and it was over the fence. I was kind of shocked. I looked down to third base and coach Christ had a big smile on his face and he was laughing.” Troike’s blast was indicative of the weekend for Illinois, as the team scored 29 runs in its first two games against Michigan State (a 15-4 win) and Furman (a 14-5 victory). Though the Illini dropped the back end of a doubleheader on Saturday, falling to the Spartans 4-2, head coach Dan Hartleb was happy with his team’s performance and hopes it can carry the team into the home opener against Milwaukee on Wednesday. Originally, the game was scheduled for Tuesday, but freezing temperatures with an occasional flurry and bitter winds pushed the game back. Though Wednesday’s forecast doesn’t call for

much warmer temperatures, the game will be played around the peak of the day’s warmth at 3 p.m. It’s supposed to be around 43 degrees at that time. Temperature is of no concern to Hartleb, however. The Illini baseball team has seen cold home openers in

his 13-year coaching tenure at Illinois, and this one will be no different. “(Milwaukee has) to deal with the same elements we do,” Hartleb said. “I expect our guys to go out and perform at a high level. We’re out here practicing today because we want to play in

this type of weather; we just have to be prepared.” Compared to some of the opponents the Illini have taken on so far in the young season, the Panthers (4-10) have struggled. The team has lost five of its last sevSEE BASEBALL | 2B

IOTW and played tough teams there as well.” Oestreich joined the Illinois softball program alongside six other pitchers on staff. That staff is packed with talented pitchers, Perry said. Oestreich’s transfer was a seamless addition to the ladies already on the mound for Illinois. “The pitcher is involved in every single play on defense, so they set the tone for your game in some cases, but they’re definitely a big, important part of your game in all cases,” Perry said. “She’s very calm in the circle and very confident in what she’s doing.” The game of softball is a language Oestreich is fluent in, but adjusting to an entirely new group of teammates and coaches made her nervous. “I was definitely nervous about (being a junior), because everyone had their cliques,” Oestreich said. “But the team did a really good job of reaching out to me before I even got here, like by following me on social media and texting me.” After breaking the ice with her fellow players, Oestreich said she was quick to pick up friends off the field. The team lives on the same street, making it easy to make the most of their time off, she said. Some of her teammates have pets as well, which Oestreich said adds to the fun she has with her newfound friends. On the field, her team-

HOCKEY brini said. “We’re making one pass and forcing shots into traffic instead of moving around and taking what they gave us.” The offense wasn’t the only problem Tuesday night. Goalie David Heflin allowed eight goals on 41 shots. While he did make some highlight reel stops, he and the Illini defense allowed the most goals of the season. It was again anticlimactic for the senior netminder who racked up 132 saves in the three games prior, including 56 in the win over Ohio, and finished with 165 for the tournament. “Some guys didn’t play up to the level they have all year for us,” Fabbrini said. “Some of the guys who were the most instrumental in getting us in the championship game.” Fabbrini added that the fatigue of three close games in three days may have led to the Illini’s struggles. Tuesday was the final career game for seven Illinois seniors, who helped lead the team to a 26-100-2 record, and a second place finish in both the CSCHL and the ACHA tournaments. However, it wasn’t just the old guard, as younger players stepped up and filled important roles. Sophomore Bobby Ernsting and freshman Drew Richter tied for the team’s lead in scoring this year, with 13 goals each.

mates have also been a guiding force in her 8-3 record on the season so far. “I’m obviously still new and there’s a lot of stuff I’m Backup sophomore goalie Jake Barnhart also gave the Illini a solid contribution when Heflin was injured late in the year, winning nine of his first 10 starts. Barnhart was in net for Illinois’ run in the CSCHL playoffs, helping them make the title game for the first time in almost a decade. “When you lose in a championship game, it’s hard to put things into perspective,” Fabbrini said. “(It’s hard) to understand everything you’ve accomplished as a group.” Two years removed from first round exits in both the CSCHL and ACHA tournaments, the Illini built on the improvements made last year, helping Fabbrini earn CSCHL Coach of the Year honors. The Illini also had the CSCHL Rookie of the Year in defenseman Joe Nolan, who was fifth on the team in points and tied senior captain Joey Ritondale for the lead on the team among defensemen in goals. Nolan and Richter both made the All-Rookie team as well. Ritondale was the Illini’s lone representative on the CSCHL first team as well as the All-Defensive team. Fellow senior James McGing was awarded second-team honors. Under all this improvement, the looming possibility of becoming an NCAA program hovers over the Illini. “We felt this was a really important year for us, just because of everything that’s happening with hockey around the University,”

“This was a really important year for us... With the exception of tonight, I think our guys really delivered for us.” NICK FABBRINI ILLINOIS HOCKEY HEAD COACH

Fabbrini said. “With the exception of tonight, I think our guys really delivered for us.” A recent study done by Collegiate Consulting found that “the strong consensus of everyone involved in college hockey is that NCAA men’s hockey will flourish at the University of Illinois.” There is also support from the Chicago Blackhawks of the NHL regarding getting Illinois hockey into the NCAA. “It’s always been a desirable place to play,” Fabbrini said. “Over the last two days alone, I’ve probably gotten 30 emails from players interested in the program, both as a club and as an NCAA program.” The future may be bright, but Fabbrini and the Illini won’t forget this year. “We came from behind pretty much all season long, and we battled,” Fabbrini said. “It really speaks to the character this group had.” @binzy_20 brianb2@dailyillini.com

Hartleb said he expects to keep the same lineup from the weekend and that righthanded Cyrillic Watson (0-1) will take the mound for the Illini. The sophomore has given up an average of 4.05 earned runs in six and 2/3 innings pitched so far in his two appearances against Austin Peay and VCU. The Panthers are expected to start lefty Alex Fischer, who is 1-1 on the year with an ERA of 5.40. Illinois, which has won seven of its last eight games, is looking forward to getting out in front of its home fans — though the early start may impact what could otherwise be a high-attendance affair. “We can’t wait; every year it’s the first four weeks on the road,” Troike said. “Finally, we get to play at home in front of the home fans; we’re just excited to get rolling here.” Hartleb is glad the team has time to settle down a bit in Champaign after weeks of traveling. “It’s nice being able to sleep in our own beds, come out here, get in our routine and have some home fans,” Hartleb said. Despite the midweek contest, not having to travel outside Champaign leaves the players with more time to focus on academics and organize themselves

mentally. After taking on the Panthers, the Illini will make the three-hour trip south to Carbondale for their first true series of the year against in-state foe Southern Illinois. The Salukis started slow, but broke off on a five-game win streak to get back to .500. On Tuesday, they lost 9-8 at Arkansas State in 11 innings, dipping to 8-9 on the season. Hartleb is expecting a tough series, though, especially now, with Illinois ranked in multiple polls — the team moved into Baseball America’s top 25, currently sitting at No. 24, and maintains its No. 25 position in the Collegiate Baseball Newspaper’s rankings. “We’ve got a target on us right now, so we’re going to have to go out and be better than we were a week ago,” Hartleb said. “I look for very competitive games; we have to handle each pitch and each inning as if it’s our last.” The approach to the weekend will be much the same as it has been for each road trip so far this season. The team will focus on picking the right pitches to go after when at the plate and staying poised defensively. Hartleb also stressed that though the starting pitching has been generally good lately, he is always looking for guys to prove to him that they can be consistent. “There’s a few things, looking back at different games, that you’d like to change a little bit, but if you would have told me going into the season that we’d

be 8-4 at this point against the teams we’re playing, I would’ve taken it,” Hartleb said. “We’ve done a really good job; I’m really pleased with our progress.” A priority for Hartleb has been making sure his team is able to handle its success well. He doesn’t want his players getting swollen heads or expecting to win because of the team’s ranked status. Hartleb believes there are always areas of the game to work on, regardless of the new attention coming Illinois’ way. “We’ve done a lot of things well; we’re getting national recognition,” Hartleb said. “A lot of those things are nice, but we still have to play well. We have to handle all the media attention and we have a lot of the season left. There is a lot ahead of us and we need to continue to improve.” However, playing with a sense of self-assurance isn’t a bad thing, and Illinois is well aware of that. Troike wants his teammates to come out with the same attitude and mindset they’ve had all season long. It’s worked fairly well so far, as the Illini have beaten the national champions from 2012 (Arizona), 2013 (No. 11 UCLA) and 2016 (Coastal Carolina). “We’re hot right now,” Troike said. “We’ve just got to stick to what we believe in, play with that same confidence and swagger that we’ve had for the first twelve games of the season.”

Illinois’ Isaiah Martinez wrestles with Maryland’s Brendan Burnham in the 165-pound weight class during the meet at Huff Hall on Jan. 28. The Illini won 25-18.

Five Illini to wrestle in the 2018 NCAA Championships Martinez looking for third national title

third national championship of his career after becoming the 16th wrestler to ever win four Big Ten Championship titles. After going undefeated last season, Martinez lost the NCAA title to Penn State’s Vincenzo Joseph after being pinned just over halfway through the third period. The two had a rematch in this year'’ Big Ten title, where Martinez scored on a last-second takedown to defeat Joseph. Martinez will start the opening round with a match against Eastern Michigan’s Zachary Carson, who is 21-11 on the season. Parker, who led the Illini in wins this season with a 21-3 record, will wrestle North Carolina’s Chip Ness (16-10) in the opening round. Last year, he made his NCAA Championship debut as a sophomore and upset Ohio State’s No. 6 Myles Martin in the second round. Parker earned the No. 10 seed for his 15-match win streak and a fifth-place finish at the Big Ten Championships. After losing in his first Big Ten Championship title match to Ohio State’s Joey McKenna, Carr will make

his NCA A debut against South Dakota State’s Henry Pohlmeyer (23-9). Carr, who is 17-5 overall on the season, won his last 11 matches before the second place finish. Along with Carr, Duncan will also be making his NCAA Championship debut. Duncan went 5-1 at the Big Ten Championships and beat two higher seeds, despite losing in the semifinals. Duncan then went on to defeat Minnesota’s Mitch McKee after the semifinal loss for the third place spot. Duncan is second in wins throughout the season for the Illini, going 20-7, and will wrestle against the No. 4 seeded Kaid Brock of Ohio State in the opening round. T r av i s P iet r ow s k i rounds out the five Illini competing at the national tournament. Pietrowski qualified after finishing ninth at the Big Ten Championships with a 17-8 record this season.

MEN’S GOLF

‘Mamba Mentality’ taken to the course Illini freshman golfer looks to better her game everyday

everything more tactically than emotionally to figure out the best solution for herself and her teammates is what the phrase is all about. And, like Bryant, Morallos found that she could use ‘Mamba Mentality’ in her everyday life. According to Morallos, regardless of where you are in life, it isn’t about winning or losing. “There is no winning or losing. The only time failure like that can exist is when you don’t give yourself the chance to improve,” Morallos said. “So every day, whether it be trying to watch what I eat, or putting 100 percent into workouts or managing my time so I have enough time to study for my midterm, it’s definitely about putting 100 percent into everything I do to try and better myself.” Putting 100 percent into what she does has paid off for Morallos so far in the spring season. She led the Illini, alongside senior Dana Gattone and junior Bing Singhsumalee in the spring season opener in Arizona, building on her contributions to the team in the fall. For Morallos, embodying a ‘Mamba Mentality’ on the course simply means staying in the moment and recognizing that she’s earned her spot at the tournaments she plays in. “It’s definitely more about quality at the moment and trying to hone in on what specific parts of my game I want to work on,” Morallos said. “Just accepting what I have, what game I brought and reminding myself that before I got to that tournament, I put in all the extra work.”

BY RACHEL SPENCER CONTRIBUTING WRITER

It all started with a TEDtalk. Ali Morallos is no stranger to competition, having seven top-10 American Junior Golf Association finishes under her belt, in addition to qualifying for the 2014 U.S. Women’s Public Links, all before step ping foot in Champaign. Once a member of the Illini women's golf team, the California native had a strong start during her first fall season, racking up three rounds under par — including a career-low 67 at the Coeur d’Alene Collegiate back in September. The idea of taking Kobe Bryant’s iconic ‘Mamba Mentality’ off the basketball court and teeing up with it on the golf course came to Morallos on a training trip, after watching a TEDtalk that featured Bryant himself. In it, he discussed how the mentality has helped him shape his goals, not only for his basketball career but in his daily life. Morallos said the messages and goals of the TED talk really spoke to her. The freshman saw the potential ‘Mamba Mentality’ had, not just for her game, but for how she works with her teammates too. “Overall, it’s just about doing everything with a purpose and trying to better yourself every day,” Morallos said. Morallos understands the ‘Mamba Mentality’ as going the extra mile. She says that approaching rachels4@dailyillini.com

fellow Illini Steve Striker. Meyer finished out the Valspar Championship tied for 74 overall, with a total score of 7-over par. Along with Meyer, several Illinois alumni were at the event. Among them were Scott Langley, Luke Guthrie and Steve Stricker, who each finished among the top 15 in the tour. Coming off of a win at the Cologuard Classic, Stricker closed the event with a score of 4-under par to tie for 12 overall. On the Web.com Tour, Langley and Guthrie finished among the top 15 at the El Bosque Mexico Championship by Innova. Langley shot 9-under par to tie for sixth, while Guthrie closed play 8-under par and tied for 13.

Over the weekend, Illini golf’s own Dylan Meyer took on some of the best golfers at the PGA Tour. Meyer competed in the 2018 Valspar Championship, making his second appearance in a PGA Tour event. The senior is the owner of many accolades throughout his career, three of which came in 2017, including PING First Team All-American, Big Ten Player of the Year, and the All-Nicklaus Team. Meyer made his first PGA Tour appearance at the 2017 John Deere Classic and went on to play at the Web.com Tour’s Lincoln Land Charity Championship. The Indiana native opened the Valspar Championship strong at 1-under par 70 performance, which tied him for eighth with Tiger Woods and sports@dailyillini.com

Independent coffee shop Brewlab opened on campus about two months ago on South Fifth Street in Champaign. The coffee shop hosts open mic nights where authors can share their stories.

Brewlab’s open mic nights show the art of short stories BY BEN TSCHETTER BUZZ WRITER

Following the recent trend of holding open mic events, BrewLab Coffee hosted a reading of short stories by local writers. The event lasted for over an hour and featured a packed room of literature-hungry students ready to hear stories from the community. The event featured four local writers, both students and graduates, men and women, each with backgrounds and life experiences that lead to completely different stories. Each writer’s material differed drastically, from very short inspirational passages designed to make the audience think, to a long and engaging story that captivated all in attendance.

A common theme in each story was the use of metaphors, symbolism and iconography. The writers explained that much in their stories was based off their own lives. University graduate Grant Garland said his rationale for writing and the basis of his stories was coping mechanisms. “I write a lot about ritual. It’s a coping thing, a way to compare every moment of your day with how it should be. I look for a moment that strikes me for my writing. My piece came to me when my grandma told me her wedding ring didn’t fit anymore. I write a lot of stories about older people, and that’s because I am scared to death of getting old,” Garland said. Aumaine Gruich, anoth-

er open mic speaker, uses short stories as a way of preserving memories. “Not wanting things to slip away from your head, whether you remember them or not,” Gruich said. Champaign-Urbana has a great artistic community, well known for its musical outputs, but it does not have the same level of recognition for writing. The prominence of open mic nights, especially in regards to storytelling, will hopefully change that. BrewLab plans to host more open mic nights and specific nights dedicated to storytelling, both of which accept submissions from interested musicians and storytellers in the community.

Last one, fast one: My farewell to JESS PETERSON BUZZ EDITOR

W

hen the year is 2015 and you officially commit to a college, if you don’t post it on social media, it’s almost as if you aren’t actually going. Sure, there’s the validation from a tangible acceptance letter your mom saved on the kitchen counter until you got home, but isn’t over a hundred likes on a filtered picture of you repping the colors you apparently bleed now far more valuable? Though I can see the faults in this mentality, I was not immune to it. To 18-year-old Jess, it would have been worse to post about what my safety school was than to post nothing at all. Even if I wasn’t entirely sure of my decision, I had to at least convince the internet I was. In the spirit of originality, I coined the hashtag #uiusea in an effort to already distinguish myself before arriving to school. The last thing I wanted was to have a cookie-cutter college experience, one I’d be unable to call my own.

Getting to campus and watching the “honeymoon phase” of freshman year fade away invited in qualms that came like waves, sometimes settling and at other points roaring in my face. This led me to fantasize about dropping out. At one point, I purchased a Greyhound ticket to my aunt’s house in Colorado as a means to escape. It wasn’t the fact there was nothing good about my experience at that point, I just continued to believe something elsewhere, anything but here, had to be better. The 42 hours of being tucked next to strangers who were also trying to get

anywhere was divided by gas station stops with me trying to get some fresh air adjacent to others’ cigarette breaks in the middle of nowhere. Safety and comfort are not words I would use to describe the trip. The best part of the decision, though, was the element of, “This is probably not your best idea,” because it reminded me of my own power, even if it was to do something I’d eventually regret. My gut had told me to go to the mountains, but the moment I stepped off the bus I realized everything

I’d been trying to avoid had also been along for the ride. During the first semester of my freshman year I joined buzz because my older brother told me to. His advice brought me to all of my journalistic firsts, from podcasts to band interviews; sticking with buzz proved to be one of the most impactful choices I could have made within these four years. When I stepped into the shoes of buzz editor a year ago, floods of insecurity and self-doubt came quickly. It was different than the panic I had felt before because this time I didn’t have to swim alone.

Bumping elbows and being critiqued by some of my closest friends could be painful at points. Living in an Urbana ‘Editor House’ with four other people and one bathroom was a blessing and a curse, because the line between home and work blurred far too easily. Despite this and quarrels between the brains who craft The Daily Illini, our common goal of taking pride in the tangible result of our work twice a week kept us together. The finished product wouldn’t just affect readers, but also the people who were there from the birth of the story idea to when it became something anyone

could access. We were competing with ourselves for ourselves. I’ve attended less than 10 sporting events in my time here, and I only own Illini apparel my mom insists on purchasing. So what if I never found school spirit in the traditional sense? The newsroom right above Legends on Green Street became my arena where I found community, a purpose to serve on this campus and a little bit more of who I am and aspire to be. Because I intend to stand by The Beach Boys and the surf revival for most of the rest of forever, now seems like the appropriate time to name drop “Be True to Your School,” the same song my best friend and I sang on our way to high school graduation — not out of sheer love for the place we’d attended for the last four years, but for what we brought to it and for what we intended to take away from it. My time as buzz editor went by way too quickly, and although I have to turn in my jersey, I would never imagine rooting for any other team. jtpeter3@readbuzz.com

REVIEW

A ‘vibrant’ new album from local artist Etumu Elmari BY JEREMY PETERSON BUZZ WRITER

Local artist Etumu Elmari’s “Vibrancy” is a musical evolution. Elmari's second EP takes her style in an entirely new direction from her first, “Lagoon,” which solely featured Elmari and her ukulele. “ Vibr a nc y ” d i f fer s from its predecessor with the addition of Jackson Vaughan on guitar and Corbin Phillips on bass, which creates more sonic depth. The EP may only have three songs on it, but it stands its ground and deserves the local scene’s attention. The way these tracks come together to create a musical journey is extremely rare and powerful, distinguishing Elmari as an artist to watch. “Release,” the EP's first track, sets the tone for what to expect from “Vibrancy.” It’s very slow and pulls the listener into a sense of other-worldliness; the sparse instrumentals do a great job of creating a dreamlike feeling of falling. When Elmari sings, “diving deeper down, you keep diving deeper down,” it feels as though she’s inviting the listener to participate and be pulled into a landscape in a very cold, chaotic yet

it and evokes the feeling of natural progression from “Aubergine.” The guitar is the rhythmic focus of the song, as it becomes much tighter and rigid than the branching tones of the track before. The prominence of the guitar carries over from the last two songs as well, continuing the feeling of existing in a dreamy state initially created by “Release.” Elmari's voice on “Similarity” is vastly different from her voice on “Release,” however. The low register and lethargic feeling are gone and replaced by a more uplifted tone, as if Elmari is now leading the listener to the light at the end of the tunnel they originally fell down into. “Vibrancy” seems like it would feel very pretentious yet unimportant, but Elmari’s voice holds a very honest quality throughout, making the feelings the EP conjures come even more quickly. Each of these songs would hold so much less value on their own, but when listened to in order, they allow for an incredible experience held together by the sound of Etumu Elmari’s voice.

bass line on this song adds a hard-to-discern but delicate, heartbeat-like rhythm which grounds “Aubergine” more than “Release” and helps to calm the chaotic feel of the latter. buzz factor: “Similarity ” has an apparent beat and sway to jeremyp3@readbuzz.com
