Newly elected student body president Ron Lewis in front of the Alma Mater on Wednesday.
The Daily Illini sits down with next student body president BY CLAIRE TEXTOR STAFF WRITER
The Daily Illini: What were your goals coming into college? Ron Lewis: Being a business student, I wanted to get some type of job full time to have the security for my family so I could pay them back for every-
thing they’ve done. I came in thinking,‘I want to really make an impact and meet as many people as I need to.’ I knew that I wanted to leave some type of legacy and try to help the people who come after me. I had a lot of mentors and because of that, I was able to get a lot more out of college than most people who might not have as many mentors.” DI: How do you balance everything? RL: When I’m really passionate about different things, I always make
it work, always put in the extra time. Whether I’m at the library until four in the morning or if there are two meetings within 30 minute intervals, I’m willing to run across campus because I’m passionate about what I do. DI: How do you feel about race, ethnicity and tolerance on campus? RL: When we think about what diversity looks like on this campus, we always try to say that we’re where we need to be, and we’re just not. It’s a long process. There’s been some progress but I think there’s so
much that needs to be done before we can say we are actually inclusive, we’re actually diverse. As much as everyone wants to say that we are, I think we have a long way to go. I love connecting people and connecting different communities because until you actually have the opportunity to meet with some people that you might not like or you have some specifi c stigma against, you really won’t be able to understand what it’s like to be in a minority.”

Students undeterred to study abroad by European attacks BY MICHAEL SEMACA STAFF WRITER
Each year, thousands of students from across the country take a semester to study in a foreign country. With the recent terrorist attacks in Europe, some students are concerned about their safety abroad. However, the number of students studying abroad next year is comparable to previous years and shows no serious fluctuation, according to Bo White, the director of Illinois Abroad and Global Exchange. White has not seen a negative response or reaction to the programs themselves from students or families at the University. “I don’t know that it’s affected the program’s perception,” White said. “It’s more the perception of the region and a shift in response to 24/7 media coverage of these events.” No Illinois Study Abroad programs have been canceled in response to the attacks, White said. Staff members in Illinois Abroad and Global Exchange are working to make Illinois students safe. “We take doing the proper research seriously, and we are prepared to have answers because of the media coverage and the manner in which both Paris and Brussels happened,” he said. “But we’ve been taking that seriously since the beginning.” While the terrorist

Tatyana Fazlalizadeh lectures about gender based street harassment as part of Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Anti-Street Harassment week at Allen Hall on Tuesday.
Public art project artist speaks for Anti-Street Harassment Week BY SAMANTHA JONES TOAL ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR
Tatyana Fazlalizadeh, activist, artist and illustrator, is no stranger to sexual harassment. As a 30-yearold woman, she said she can recall numerous incidences of feeling threatened by simply walking down the street. “I’ve been experiencing sexual harassment since I was a kid,” she said. “Since walking home from the bus stop … and having men, teenagers lean out of their cars and drive next to me, saying lewd comments about my body parts.”
Fazlalizadeh said various men have grabbed her arm and catcalled her as they walked by. But one notable interaction stands out for her. A man once stopped her for wearing a skirt during the summer. He proceeded to scold her on her safety, because “there’s a rapist that lives in this neighborhood.” Knowing she is not the only woman to regularly experience street harassment, Fazlaizadeh wanted to do something. So, she turned to her profession. As an artist, Fazlalizadeh launched her “Stop Telling

Women To Smile” street art series in 2012. Speaking to a crowd at Allen Hall Tuesday night, Fazlalizadeh discussed her “Stop Telling Women To Smile” street art series. Her keynote was a part of the University's Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Anti-Street Harassment Week events. Since 2012, her works have become internationally recognized as a way to create dialogue and combat street harassment. “When I talk about street harassment, I’m talking about sexual harassment that happens in public spaces,” she said. “I don’t like

attacks have made some students timid, others remain fixed in their desire to study abroad. For Joel Mathews, freshman in engineering, the unfortunate events in Paris and Brussels have not changed that desire one bit. “The point of terrorist attacks is to scare people, and if I became scared it would make their objective complete. I don’t want to do

that,” he said. Mathews has always dreamed of traveling the globe, experiencing the many different experiences the world has to offer. So, he is not letting fear stop him. “Ever since I was small, I’ve only been to two countries: India and the UAE, and I’ve only seen other countries through TV and media, so I have a desire to see the different parts of the world, the different cultures, the cuisines,” Mathews said.
Sophomore Alexa Ruiz, studying interdisciplinary health science, echoed that sentiment. Ruiz will be studying abroad next year in Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam. “Terrorists are called terrorists for a reason,” she said. “They want and like people to live in fear, and if you don't allow yourself to have a great opportunity like studying overseas out of fear then I think you've given them what they want.” While Ruiz has no concerns for her own personal safety, she said her family is a little worried about her decision to study abroad. Nevertheless, she acknowledges the potential dangers that currently exist in Europe. “I know Amsterdam has been named as a potential target, but I am staying positive about the situation and hoping everything is okay and that no other countries are affected by these threats,” Ruiz said. White believes that studying abroad still has a lot to offer students despite the worry of increased risks in Europe. “I think that study abroad is an important component of their four year experience, and if there’s a way to integrate an international experience with their major I think they should,” he said.

Peoria Charter expands to international travel Free bus ride offered to students who buy plane ticket BY LILY MASHAYEK STAFF WRITER
Peoria Charter is offering a free bus ride with the purchase of a plane ticket through their new travel agency. The travel agency, Peoria Charter Travel, opened earlier last week. The offer is open to anyone who purchases a plane ticket and travel insurance through the agency, but is current-
ly only available for a limited time. “We haven’t set an end date yet, “ said Amanda Schott, travel professional at Peoria Charter Travel. “I would probably say … through the summer.” Jake Winkler, head of marketing for Peoria Charter, said this is the fi rst time the company has offered this promotion. “It’s the fi rst time we’ve ever done it, so we are saying it’s for a limited time,” Winkler said. “But, we’re hoping to be able to make this something we always do.” Schott said bus tickets from Champaign-Urbana to either O’hare or Mid-
way airports are typically around $50, which is more than the cost of the travel insurance. “Typically, the cost of the insurance is less than the cost of the bus ride, depending on the price of the ticket,” she said. “So if the ticket is under $500, and the traveler is … 34 or under in age, the travel insurance is $25.” Winkler said the consolidation of purchasing both a plane and bus ticket at the same time may be valuable to international students who would need to purchase both tickets to go home. “And the nice part about travel insurance is, espe-
cially for a lot of international students who are traveling, it protects you if anything happens that would cause the bus to be missed or miss a connecting fl ight or anything at all or lose your luggage,” he said. “But also with it you get free transportation and prices based off of age.” However, Mojing Shao, freshman in business and international student from China, said she personally wouldn’t fi nd the deal enticing. “I think it could be a good deal,” she said. “But, I don’t buy my plane ticket with anyone but United … because I’m a member.” Shao said it is easier for

her to purchase her ticket from the airline because she receives more benefits and she has more options to choose from. Winkler said Peoria Charter Travel will be offering competitive prices on their plane tickets so that students get the best possible deal. “We’re able to get great deals because we have the buses that people need to use to get there anyways,” he said. He also said so far they have received over 100 inquiries about the free bus ride offer. “We’ve already had over 100 students at the University email us or call us or
do the quote form that’s on our Facebook page to get a quote for their trips home for break,” Winkler said. “So we’re really hoping this could be a great service to the University students, especially the ones traveling internationally.” The buses currently go from Champaign to O’hare eight times a day and Midway twice a day. “Many of our travelers, of course they’re going to take fl ights," Winkler said. “We’ve been doing trips, like bus trips … for many years but we really wanted to expand into international trips.”

which is students fi rst, representatives second,” Moseley said. “His experiences in the senate have not only helped him learn more, but have also humbled him.” His colleagues said they are excited for the year ahead and the work Lewis will do for the campus. “Ron’s going to be a good president because his heart is in the right place,” Villanueva said. “He really cares about the campus community and building a better college experience for every single Illini on campus.”
ELECTION “When I was new, I felt like an outsider and he really helped welcome me into the student senate. He reached out to me,” Villanueva said. “He also looked to me for guidance in a lot of his projects which shows his character of valuing teamwork and others’ input.” "Lewis is always open to the learning process," Moseley said.

HARASSMENT being told to smile. I find that can be a form of street harassment and it’s absolutely sexist in my opinion.” Fazlalizadeh launched her first work of art in this series based on this message. Using a wheatpaste method of art, which involves using a liquid adhesive made from wheat flour, she plastered a portrait of herself in Brooklyn, New York featuring the words, “Don’t tell women to smile.” “I wanted to talk about something that was seemingly insidious. Telling a woman to smile doesn’t seem to be this huge, aggressive form of sexual harassment, but it is in a way,” she said. Her series became an immediate success, resonating with women globally through social media, specifically through Tumblr and Instagram. While Fazlalizadeh not-
ed the project spurred from her own experiences, she wanted to reach out to women from different backgrounds across the country and internationally to hear their stories, too. So, she visited different cities and talked to many different women about

street harassment. Fazlalizadeh makes sure the conversations are comfortable and casual. “We talk and then I ask them very pointedly, ‘What do you want to say to men who harass you on the street in your neighborhood?

Asian Fetish.” Still, other quips include “My name is not Baby” and “Women are not seeking your validation.” Fazlalizadeh said that she’s received positive responses to the artwork. However, since her art pieces are located in public spaces, they’re often ripped up or written on. However, she said it also creates a public space for dialogue. On one piece, an anonymous passerby wrote in marker, “Man hater.” However, another passerby then responded, “We don’t hate men, we hate feeling unsafe.” Fazlalizadeh has brought the project to cities around the nation and internationally, including Mexico City, Berlin, Oakland, New York City and Atlanta. “I think this project is so successful because women are looking at a way to do something, as a way to respond to harassment on the street,” she said.

I want to provide a space where people can talk and engage in dialogue. I want to make sure we’re providing an outlet for students to voice their opinions, even if it’s something that might not be as seen as a main priority. DI: What are your main priorities as president? RL: I have two main priorities: connecting student senate back to campus and connecting student senate with each other. As student senate, we’re supposed to represent the student body. There’s no way we can do that if we’re only focused on our own initiatives and not on the students. My main focus is on being student body president, being there for students when they’re struggling. It’s more important to be there for the people you represent than doing it for yourself. Once we reconnect the students, I want to start working upward with administration, working with legislators so we can do things as far as pass a budget. We are going through a crisis right now, having no budget. None of my long-term goals for connecting administration will be possible without reconnecting the campus. DI: What has been the most rewarding, regarding your time at the University?
imasha3@dailyillini.com
textor2@dailyillini.com RL: The thing that’s been most rewarding has been training the next people to do more than I could ever imagine. I try to invest a lot in the people under me, like freshmen and sophomores, and make sure they have an opportunity to learn more and learn from my experiences. The most gratifying part has been seeing how people that I’ve been able to invest in since freshman year have become successful. DI: How have your mentors impacted you? RL: There have been so many people who have helped me to get where I am now. They helped me when I was at my lowest point, and they were there for me when no one cared about who I was or what I was doing. If it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t be here. DI: Any fi nal thoughts? RL: It defi nitely wasn’t a straight path to getting where I am. It’s very easy to see the end result, but there have been so many struggles, so many low points, and it’s so much more than all the great things that I have been doing. I think that me being able to fail and struggle through student senate, and me not being able to get positions that I wanted, has been beneficial. I think those experiences helped me to be a better leader and a better president moving forward, and trying to help others get to where they want to be.

Improving Israeli-Palestinian relations HAYLEY NAGELBERG Opinions columnist
In
March, Joe Biden spoke to a room of 18,000 people at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C., and said, “the future belongs to the bridge builders.” He is not the first person to use this expression. Martin Luther King Jr., Isaac Newton and Pope Francis are all known to have used this metaphor in their speeches. The metaphor is simple: Those who build relationships with others and work toward inclusion of more groups will have success. Those who stand alone and tear others down will not. This week, students across campus intend to promote a message of hateful lies about Israel as truth. This was not a shock for me to see; I have heard of these weeks of programming all around different campuses. But being a freshman at this University, and seeing it for the first time, I could not brush it off. Every week, different student organizations stand on the quad promoting their individual messages. This week, the same is true. Groups are selling cookies, handing out flyers and explaining the causes they represent. But this week, there is a new table as well, where I will spend my week trying to not just speak for one group, but for all. Specifically, this table is asking students to stand up and build bridges with us. Not just metaphorically, but literally. We are building a bridge. The concept of apartheid has been discussed a lot on campus over the last few weeks — from the discussion of divesting from coal like we divested from South Africa, to now this week of programming. The word apartheid means separation. It was the word assigned to explain South Africa’s legislative system of racial separation. These laws regulated every faction of daily life, from where people could go to the bathroom, to where they could go to school and even whom they could marry. None of these regulations exist in Israel today. Israel is a democracy — home to people of all religions, all races, all ethnicities and all sexual identities. There are people who infer that there is an apartheid in the Middle East between Israel and the Palestinian people, but there is no basis to these claims. In the West Bank, as well as in the Gaza Strip, Palestinians are self-governed In 1994, after the signing of the Oslo Accords, the Palestinian Authority was established to govern the Palestinian

This government is elected and has its own legal counsel. It is in charge of education, judicial proceedings, health policies and medical care. There have been grave acts against the Palestinian people. The Palestinians are excluded from the Arab League states who do not stand to support their nationality. They have been kicked out of Kuwait, Libya, Iraq and more. They are denied the right to own their own homes in Lebanon. They have been denied citizenship in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Syria and other countries. And yet, the events taking place on our campus choose to focus on condemning Israel. Seeing this upsets me. I want to sit down and explain the facts, but that is not a feasi-
ble plan. There is too much distrust amongst different groups on campus for us to have a conversation. In Israel, Palestinians and Israelis live side by side. In Israel, they attend school together, they play sports together, they learn to play music together and they learn to see each other as partners for peace. In Israel, an Arab woman was unanimously approved by Israel’s cabinet to be national commissioner for equal employment opportunities. Israel’s ambassador to Norway was a Druze man. On Israel’s supreme court, one of the justices is an Israeli Arab. The list goes on. These people know how to live side by side, yet on campuses across the country it seems this lesson is not yet understood. I
believe this campus can change that. I believe we can be the future Biden described — a future full of bridge builders where engaging with people who disagree with us is possible, and where we see each other as neighbors, not enemies, despite unstable histories between us. This week, and moving forward, you have a choice to make as a student here: you can join the demonstrations on the quad; you can join the events that are furthering the divide and animosity on campus, or you can join the movement to unite our campus. The choice is yours. I hope you choose to build bridges with me.

Worry about your own emotions
o you want to know what every woman loves? Being told to smile by random men on the street definitely tops the list. Contrary to this view, which a surprising number of people seem to have, most women don’t love when men trivialize them by asking for extra emotion. When was the last time you heard anyone say, “Gee, that guy telling me to smile really made my day”? The number of times this continues to happen to all women, particularly on our college campus, is ridiculous. Women are more than their teeth, and male students on campus must recognize that. There’s no better time to start than during Anti-Street Harassment Week. People do all sorts of stupid things when they are drunk, but the insistent pestering of women on college campuses doesn’t have to be one of them. Go punch a wall or crush a beer can alone if you need to work out some testosterone — neither of those things makes female students feel threatened or unsafe. This problem isn’t just exclusive to our campus or other college campuses. Women around the world have their emotions questioned by men, no matter how successful or popular they are.
Look at Serena Williams. She’s a world-class athlete who is still asked why she isn’t smiling after a win. “To be perfectly honest with you, I don’t want to be here,” she said after eliminating her sister Venus Williams from the U.S. Open. “I just want to be in bed right now and I have to wake up early to practice. And I don’t want to answer any of these questions, and you guys keep asking me the same questions. It’s not really — you’re not making it super enjoyable. Just being honest.” There isn’t inherently an issue with asking somebody why he or she isn’t feeling happy — the issue exists because only women are ever pestered with those questions. Roger Federer would never be asked such a question, and it’s fairly obvious why somebody who just knocked her sister out of a tournament wouldn’t be all that pleased. No one should ever have to justify his or her emotions, whether positive or negative. At least the reporter who questioned Williams had the excuse of trying to do his job. Women walking home, whether from class or the bars, never signed contracts requiring them to field questions from men on balconies. The real answer to what most women want is fairly simple: respect.
ave you heard about the baby?” Many who heard or read the news about the incident that occurred on campus March 13 were asking that question. A student at the University secretly gave birth to a child in a bathroom of Bousfield Hall and hid the baby in a backpack to conceal the act. The baby was later found dead inside the backpack. A police investigation began, and the school sent out a massmail to residents of the dorm to warn them about what had taken place. Nearly a month later, Lindsay Johnson, 20, was charged on Tuesday with alleged first-degree murder of her newborn son, child endangerment and concealment of a homicidal death. The news not only brought out sadness and outrage within the students and faculty members, but it also presented the question of how such a tragic event could take place at a prestigious academic institution. The school provides support for female students on campus through the Women’s Resource Center and counseling sessions with various advisors. However, this incident suggests that maybe there is insufficient attention given to individual students due to our campus’ enormity. I can’t help but wonder how weeks of pregnancy went unnoticed by others who knew Johnson until after birth and ensuing police investigation. Commonly, it’s expected that a student having issues at school should realize their problems and seek help to improve their situations. But the rest of the community is at fault for not paying attention to the struggles of a member of the school, to the point where birth was given in a dormitory setting without any medical care. Sergio A Dorado, a sophomore in LAS, was present at Bousfield Hall when the police investigation was taking place. After learning the full account of what happened, he said: “I hope the University realizes from this that women do need help with more than just preventing rape and unprotected sex. In a University of this ranking, we should open a door to help those who (have unexpected pregnancies).” Although the University provides
rape prevention and sex education sessions, what should students do if they do get pregnant? While preventing pregnancy would be ideal for those who aren’t ready for the responsibility, there is no universally acceptable protocol that female students can take if they do become pregnant. Modern methods of contraceptives such as Plan B come with chances of failure. Our society should provide an environment where another plan is readily available for women who are not ready to be mothers yet. Maybe if Johnson didn’t panic at the consequences of accidental pregnancy, and knew that there are other options available, the child wouldn’t have been tragically lost. Another concerning issue is the number of jokes about the death of the newborn baby posted on online discussion forums such as Yik Yak or Reddit. While it is true that humor can uplift spirits, and anyone can exercise freedom of speech, the timing seems too soon and to be insensitive. When a devastating ordeal happens on campus, members of the school must remain respectful of one another, even with the anonymity granted in virtual settings. Some of the jokes included: “Stuffing a baby in a backpack to avoid paying extra for Peoria Charter,” “Sierra backpacks are perfect for carrying around an eight-ounce baby” and “When you can’t afford a babysitter, so you have to bring it to class with you in a backpack.” Johnson likely committed the disturbing act in a frenzy of frustration and panic, and a child with every potential for living a fulfilling life was lost in its process. No matter how many upvotes or likes a joke may receive, it is not worth lowering the dignity of a human being. The University will need to make necessary adjustments to accommodate the impact of the incident. There should be more caution on the outcome of sex and pregnancy for all students to practice on campus. Also, comments on incidents similar to this should be kept considerate; while we now know most of the story, there are still more legal proceedings to take place. Despite the appalling nature of this situation, our University community can mend itself if its members extend their hospitality to every member of the school.

Brandon Hudspeth, a senior in LAS, leads a group of Bernie Sanders supporters in a variety of chants in front of the Alma Mater as part of the March for Bernie on Jan. 23. wrote. “If someone wants to get involved in campaigning, they should reach out to the club representative of the political party they want to get involved with, so either the Illini Republicans or Illini Democrats. They could also reach out to the local county party. It is best to reach out to someone local that you can speak with than to just send an email to a large organization or campaign.” Although McClinton and Piper easily identify with one candidate or one party, Corbin Kakac, freshman in LAS, said he fi nds it more difficult. Kakac identifies as an independent and
does not support any of the remaining candidates. “I don’t really have an ardent loyalty to either party, but I probably lean more towards the right on some of the bigger issues,” Kakac said. “I strongly dislike Trump and Cruz, at least from the Republicans that are left in the field. I was a pretty big supporter of Rand Paul back when he was running, but I think he was a little bit too moderate for what the plurality of what the Republican Party is built upon, the pluralities that Ted Cruz and Donald Trump have. Unfortunately, I don’t think his ideas stuck.”
Despite not having his favorite candidate remaining, Kakac still closely follows the elections and encourages others to do the same by fi nding what matters to them the most. “You need to understand what you believe and what issues are most relevant to you in your area, state and country before you get involved, because blindly hopping on Senator X’s campaign is not the most educated way you want to become involved in politics,” Kakac said. When it comes to voting, McClinton agreed that being educated before making a decision that impacts
the whole nation is very important, no matter which party students support. “I’m not infringing my political party on other people, but I’m educating them about how I feel about things,” McClinton said. “When I think about where we are in society, I just want to make sure that people are exercising their right to vote because I think it’s so important. Many of my ancestors did not have a right to vote, and so I think for me it’s important to make sure that I’m involved and educating other people.”
FROM 6A
Hertzman, assistant professor of history specializing in Latin American and the Caribbean. “The importance of musicians being on the front line at the student movement, being right there putting their bodies on the line along with the students. I think that has an immeasurable impact. They’re not just singing it.” Hertzman said Vandré changed the way music was perceived during this time through his confrontational expression. Vandré also showed the world that music can be employed for political change. “There is a larger utopian movement in the 1960s where there are people mobilizing globally. This is clearly a moment where there are things happening all over the world,” Hertzman said. “This music and movement were linked up with a larger global process and desire for new ways of doing things.” Both the student protesters and songwriters embodied the idea of utopias,
which Steinberg’s program examines. “Something is happening now which is part of the same atmosphere we live in where people feel like it’s not enough to just say this is the best we’re going to ever have,” Steinberg said. “And this is Utopian, not in the sense of wild-eyed idealism, but rather a bold statement that says the world is not enough as it is and proposes new ways of thinking about possibility.” He said some people put the broad ideas of Utopian thought into what he calls an “everyday Utopia,” an approach that focuses on building alternative communities and havens locally rather than remaking politics and institutions. “And in some ways music does that,” Hertzman said. “It’s a place, it’s a time, it’s a moment and space to really feel the emotional liberation of being in a space that’s removed from the rest of the world in hopes of rebuilding it from the bottom up.”

these types of events is important for centering music within its cultural and historical context. Boccato also said he believes this historical background enriches the listener’s understanding and connection to the performance. The music played at the event was written by many influential political activists such as Geraldo Vandré, Chico Buarque and Milton Nascimento. Geraldo Vandré wrote an influential song called “Pra não dizer que não falei das flores,” which eventually became the anthem for student protests and demonstrations for democracy in Brazil. “A lot of times, folks were not nearly as explicit or confrontational with music, but in that song itself and in the larger student movement, you can see a distaste for the military government which is oppressing people that they don’t agree with,” said

LIFE CULTURE 6A | THURSDAY, APRIL 14, 2016 | WWW.DAILYILLINI.COM
BY MARA SHAPIRO STAFF WRITER
Quinty, a narcotics-sniffi ng dog who worked with the University Police Department for eight years, passed away Saturday after finding MDMA during his last drug bust with the police force. The dog started feeling ill recently and was taken to the University's veterinary hospital for some tests, University Police Chief Jeff Christensen said. UIPD officer Doug Beckman, Quinty's handler, was told Quinty was fine after the tests, so the dog went back on the job, sniffing out drugs. After making a drug bust Friday night, Quinty started to get sick again. That was when Beckman took his dog to the emergency room, where it was discovered that Quinty was suffering from hemangiosarcoma, or spleen cancer. The 10-year-old Belgian malinois died the following morning. The loss of Quinty has been hard on the whole police department, especially on Beckman and his family. He was unable to be reached for comment due to his grieving. Lt. Joseph McCullough, who worked with Beckman and Quinty, explained how Quinty's loss is impacting the police department and the campus. "It hurts. It's emotional right now," McCullough said. "In the near term, until we can get another narcotics dog trained up, it's going to be a little bit of a void in our shifts, but we will rely on our counterparts from the Champaign and Urbana police departments." McCullough said that even though Quinty was a narcotics dog, he was a big help for many crimes that occurred throughout campus. "He was such a good dog. He responded to all the priority calls," McCullough said. "If a student was robbed or if somebody went missing or if a felon was fleeing, causing a safety issue for our community, Quinty would be out looking for him actively." Christensen agreed that having Quinty on the police team was very important for campus safety. "(Police dogs) help with narcotics investigations, and we've dealt with enough cases where people's lives have been ruined by drugs," Christensen said. "We try to do our best to keep them off campus."
He explained that police dogs are "very valuable,” and that in addition to having Quinty, the UIPD has an explosives-sniffing dog in case of bomb threats. "These dogs love to work," Christensen said. “That is their whole life.” Beckman started training heavily with Quinty when he first became Quinty's handler eight years ago. McCullough praised the dog's abilities to find contraband. "Officer Beckman trained him to find articles," McCullough said. "He found over a dozen guns, whether discarded or in bushes. He located shell casings from bullets in areas that had shootings. Just a plethora of drugs." Quinty and Beckman became very close, both on the job and at home, Christensen said, stating that Quinty became a part of the Beckman family. "The bond between canine handler and the police dog, it's very, very special,” Christensen said. Dr. Timothy Fan, associate professor of veterinary clinical medicine, explained that because Quinty was a dog older than 7 years, he was a lot more susceptible to developing hemangiosarcoma. He also offered some insight into how the particular cancer acts inside a dog's body. "The way that this cancer grows, it grows inside the body; often you don't know that it's there until it gets to the point that it bleeds in the abdomen and leads to a collapse," Fan said. "The dog gets really, really weak, and they're in shock. You typically cannot find it until the dog becomes clinical. You can visit your veterinarian twice a year and have an ultrasound for the abdomen. The most common clinical sign is that a dog becomes weak and lethargic. Their abdomen becomes really extended.” McCullough said that when Quinty was in the emergency room, officers from the UIPD and the Champaign and Urbana police departments came to show support. The Urbana Police Department handled the UIPD's night calls so that officers could pay their respects. According to McCullough, Quinty was a dog who earned the level of respect given to him
during his final hours. "He was one of the best police canines I've ever seen at work in my career,” he said. “He had the same temperament as his handler, both hyper and strong work ethic." Fan advised dog owners to look for changes in their pets' behaviors and get them checked out right away. Signs to look for are a higher frequency of vomiting or a lower energy level. "The pet owner should meet with a veterinary oncologist," Fan said. "Be educated on them and up-to-date. Many of these dogs are recommended systemic chemotherapy.” Hemangiosarcoma has a very high death rate because of the nature of the disease. Fan said
90 to 95 percent of dogs die from the cancer, but if the disease is caught earlier where the tumor hasn't broken up and bled yet, the canine has a higher chance of living longer. Since Quinty just recently passed away, McCullough said the department hasn't yet planned an event to honor the dog, but the police department has plans to commemorate Quinty's legacy. Christensen said Quinty's death was a testament of his dedication to the UIPD. "He went to work, he did his job and he found the drugs," Christensen said. “He went out happy.”

Jazz performance shows impact of music during military dictatorship BY SARAH KATS CONTRIBUTING WRITER

As the humming of people fi lled the Iron Post on Friday, their spirits seemed to already be permeated by the energy of the music that followed. They gathered to revisit the songwriting of jazz musicians from Brazil’s military dictatorship. The event, called “Utopian Songwriting,” included notes given by University professors Marc Hertzman, Mark Steinberg and Michael Silvers. Each used his own expertise to examine the impact of Utopian songwriters and political activ-
ism during Brazil’s military dictatorship in the 1960s. “There was something happening in the 1960s worldwide, which has its own particular quality. That includes student movement here, in France, and even what was going on in the Soviet Union,” said Steinberg, professor in the department of History and coordinator of the Global Utopias program. “It was a sudden revival of sense of possibility, not just recovering the old world, but really a chance to think boldly.” In the 1960s and 1970s, Brazilian songs and song-
writers played a pivotal role in mobilizing student movements and activism against the oppressive military dictatorship. “Jazz was very popular all the way up to the ‘60s, and that’s when we see a larger connection between social movements,” said Marcelo Boccato, who is pursuing a doctorate in jazz studies. “We had a really strong connection in the ‘60s with the civil rights movements and jazz.” Boccato played the piano at the event.

Hardee ready to step up in Dudek’s absence BY COLE HENKE STAFF WRITER
Illinois football wide receiver Justin Hardee didn’t just lose one of his teammates when he heard fellow wideout Mike Dudek would miss next season, he lost his biggest rival. After a monster freshman campaign, Dudek was expected to be the Illini’s No. 1 pass option this season. But now that he is out, Hardee believes he can be the guy for Illinois. Both players entered spring practices coming off injuries that forced them to sit out the entire 2015 season – Dudek with a torn ACL and Hardee with a broken foot. Being on the comeback trail with Dudek last season kept Hardee motivated. “I c ompeted w it h (Dudek) every day for that number one spot,” Hardee said. “Both for competition and to just make each other better. I am always going for that number one spot but also to compete and be a winning team.” Hardee said the competition between the teammates “is all fun and
games, but at the end of the day it was time to buckle down and get better.” Now the veteran of a young Illinois wide receiver core, Hardee said he was expecting a much bigger role this season, so he is ready to step up in Dudek’s absence. In 2014, Hardee played in every game for the Illini and started in eight. He had 240 receiving yards on that season. The senior is ready to show that he isn’t all talk and is ready to prove himself as a top wide receiver for the Illini. “I want to show people the hard work I put in last season,” Hardee said. “Being out a whole season, not being able to play and compete, I just want to show people that it wasn’t a waste of time.” New Illinois wide receiver coach Andrew HayesStoker said that the Illini are obviously weaker without Dudek, but he has dealt with losing marquee guys previousy in his career. He said the only solution is to have a next man up mentality. Hayes-Stoker believes that Hardee can fit into that role and can’t
wait until Hardee gets the opportunity to establish himself. “Justin is a guy who has a lot of heart,” HayesStoker said. “He wants to do everything the right way all the time. I spend a lot of time with Justin, and I’m looking forward to getting to see him in battle and forge that relationship that comes from game situations.” Dudek’s injury will give more opportunities to the other wide receivers on the roster. Hayes-Stoker is hoping his players step up and flourish. Meanwhile, Hardee will need to rely on his teammates to give him new rivals to compete against. But he doesn’t think his teammates are going to have a problem filling the void. “All of our receivers compete,” Hardee said. “We have some good receivers ready to go to work. Having Dudek would have been excellent, but I feel like we are still going to have a great offense and a great scheme. Having Dudek would have just been a bonus.”

Dudek’s tough-minded attitude despite second injury inspiring KEVIN MCCARTHY Illini Columnist
My
stomach turned when I heard the news that Mike Dudek tore his ACL and would miss the entire 2016 season. Dudek dazzled during his freshman year — breaking Illinois freshman records for receiving yards and receptions. He was worth the price of admission every Saturday afternoon. The 5-foot-11 receiver is tough across the middle, shifty in the secondary and can catch just about anything thrown his way. For the second season in a row, No. 18 will have to watch his teammates from the sidelines. This came as devastating news for Illini football fans. The thought of seeing him crutching around Memorial Stadium for a second straight year is disheartening. After the news, he tweeted the following: “Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” This tweet, which comes from the Old Testament, Joshua 1:9, stopped me in my tracks when I read it. His attitude is admirable to me. I can’t imagine how discouraging this injury news was to him. All
of the rehab he put in to return to full strength was for naught. Nearly a year, to the date, after his first ACL tear, he has to do it all again. His tough-mindedness demands recognition and respect. This isn’t just about saying the right thing on social media; there is a wise lesson to be learned here. Not a football lesson, a life lesson. I don’t say these things to be a suck-up to Mike — anyone who knows me well can tell you that I’m quite the opposite. I like to tell it how it is. I’m writing this because his actions and attitude ought to be commended. In an age where everyone gets a trophy just for participating, hard work and dedication aren’t always rewarded and noticed the way they should be. Here’s a guy who has worked his tail off his entire life to get to where he is. Nothing was handed to him. He’s not a giant, and he can’t run like a gazelle. He doesn’t fit the typical Big Ten wide receiver mold. Despite receiving this crushing news for a second straight year, Dudek’s mindset appears unchanged. I don’t know the guy personally. I’ve asked him a couple of questions during press conferences,
and that’s about it. From the outside looking in, this is an impressive person whose attitude is inspiring. He could have easily whined and moaned. He could have asked the questions on everyone’s mind: Why? And, how did this happen again? Most people wouldn’t have fought through the first ACL injury. The thought of doing all of that rehab and training a second time — that seems crazy. But not to Mike Dudek. He has a long road ahead of him. But, as he said on Twitter, he has no reason to be afraid. It’s stories like these that make sports so
awe-inspiring. This is more than a story about sports. This is a story about the strength of the mind and of the heart. Whether you’re an athlete or not, there is much to be learned about the importance of perseverance from Mr. Dudek. Sure, it’s cliche, but it’s also an invaluable life lesson. I look forward to seeing him take the field again — whenever that may be. Until then, I’m taking notes. Persistence pays.

another season, the title is up for grabs. But Hardee isn’t concerned with it. He thinks he’s ready to be the receiving staff’s elder statesmen. He’s had the experiences, on the field and in the rehab room, to justify a leadership position.

Four years of collegiate athletics is all you get, and if you’re senior Logan
Bradley, time spent with the Illinois men’s gymnastics team is almost up. “I still remember the day when my parents dropped me off and they left,” Bradley said. “I was crying because you just realize you’re reaching a whole different part of your life. It’s weird to think that I can think of that day so distinctly, and now I’m one month away from graduating.”

Baseball’s Michael Hurwitz shows leadership as fifth-year senior BY ETHAN SWANSON STAFF WRITER
The collegiate career of Michael Hurwitz as a member of the Illinois baseball team has been one of patience and progress. As a freshman, he started the first five games of the 2012 season as Illinois’ leadoff hitter and second baseman. However, Hurwitz hit only 3-for-21 over that span, and 3-for-40 on the season. He played in 23 more games that season, but was only used for his offense – being a regular position player would become a three year process. “I came in and wanted to be an everyday defensive and offensive player,” Hurwitz said. “But I ended up just being the designated hitter for three years.” Nonetheless, Hurwitz fully embraced his role in his sophomore season, posting single-game career-highs in RBIs, runs, hits and home runs while also posting a career-high hitting streak of nine games. As a junior, it all seemed to be coming together for Hurwitz. He made five more starts at second base and posted team-highs with 36 walks and a .399 on-base percentage, both of which
were top-12 in the Big Ten. Hurwitz looked primed to come back his senior year and become the consistent two-way player he expected to be entering the program. In 2015, Hurwitz didn’t start a single game at second base or as the designated hitter. Last spring, the senior tore his left hip labrum, forcing him to redshirt the entire 2015 season – the best season in Illinois baseball history. Instead of contributing to history with his bat and glove, Hurwitz had to watch his fellow class of recruits lead the Illini to a 50-101 record, an unprecedented 27-game win streak and an appearance in an NCAA super regional. “It’s a very frequent question I’ve been asked: how hard it was to have to watch,” Hurwitz said. “It was very difficult, because you’re really happy for the team and you grew up with all those guys in the program. It was an unbelievable season. To not be able to go out and battle and play with my guys every day was probably one of the tougher experiences I’ve had to go through.” Now fully recovered from the injury, Hurwitz is a red-
shirt senior on a roster with 15 freshmen and has been thrust into a leadership role as the team veteran. After four years of waiting, Hurwitz is finally the everyday position player he thought he could be, and he’s making the most of his opportunity. The senior has started at second base in 29 of the Illini’s 30 games this season, posting a .971 fielding percentage that ranks fourth on the team among players who have more than 20 starts in the field. On top of solid defensive play, Hurwitz’s bat has been hotter than ever. In last weekend’s threegame series at Iowa, Hurwitz went a combined 8-for-12 at the plate with three runs, two RBIs and a double. The senior has put up gaudy numbers in April so far. He has batted .577 and accumulated 16 hits, ten runs and five RBIs in the eight April games. “Michael’s battled through some adversity,” head coach Dan Hartleb said. “He didn’t pout, he just kept working and now he’s really progressed. He’s done a nice job for us so far.” Hurwitz credits his recent
success at the plate to his time on the field. “It’s definitely different being an everyday guy, but it’s actually helped me out a lot this year,” Hurwitz said. “I struggled early in the year [at the plate], but defensively I knew I could still help my team win. That kind of kept my mind off the hitting. If I were a [designated hitter], hitting would have been all I worried about.” On the season, Hurwitz’s
.290 batting average ranks third on the team, and his 21 runs scored and 30 hits are both second on the Illini roster. Though the Illini’s 14-16 record is not comparable to what should have been his senior year, Hurwitz is more than happy just being able to take the field and step into the batter’s box every game. As a five-year member of the team, Hurwitz uses his experiences to try and help
the team’s plethora of young talent realize that with a bit of patience and a lot progress, they can also find the success in the program. “You just try to teach them as you go,” Hurwitz said. “Let them know that even though we might not be doing well right now, there’s a lot of season left to turn things around.”

FROM 1B
BRADLEY For Bradley, everything happened much faster than he could have imagined. Seven years ago, he was watching his older brother, Ross, compete for the Illini, and now he is less than a week away from the last competition of his career – a career that began with a mushroom. The mushroom that Steve and Peggy Bradley, Logan’s parents, gave their son was not a literal vegetable. Instead, the mushroom they are referring to was a pommel horse for kids, and from the time they purchased it for their son, Peggy said Logan wouldn’t leave it alone. “He had that mushroom in front of the television, and he just did that from the time he was three,” she said. “He really took to that for some reason.” Her oldest son Ross was already enrolled in a park district gymnastics class, and seeing how fun it could be for all of her children, Peggy soon put Logan and her only daughter, Kelly, into the class. Soon, the Bradley household featured three young gymnasts – two of whom would go on to become All-Americans. “Their schedule became my schedule,” Peggy said. “We did school and then homework and then dinner and then practice and then some more homework. They were full days.” Peggy doesn’t feel like it’s been that long, but in reality, two decades have passed since she made the spur-of-the-moment decision to register her kids for a local gymnastics class. Logan is in the final stretch of a combined nine years that the Bradley brothers have spent in Champaign. For Logan, there are two former coaches who he credits the most when it comes to his development – Mark Diab and Chris McKee. From ages four to 18, Logan spent time honing his skills with the two former standout gymnasts. Diab was the back-to-back NCAA still rings champion for Iowa State in 1985 and 1986. McKee was a part of the Illinois men’s gymnastics team that won the NCAA title in 1989.
THE DAILY ILLINI | WWW.DAILYILLINI.COM
McKee a nd Diab’s collegiate success and clear knowledge for the sport has motivated a new generation of athletes: Both their gyms – Premiere Gymnastics Ac ademy and Bartlett Gymnastics – have become two of the top gymnastics programs in Illinois. Diab owns Premiere Gymnastics Ac ademy which is where Logan trained until he was 13. Then, he started training with McKee at Bartlett Gymnastics until he came to college. Logan looks back on those memories with Bartlett Gymnastics very fondly, and after winning the Ju n ior Oly mpic Gymnastics Championship in 2009 with McKee at

the helm, he finally got to experience what it was like to be a part of a great team. “That was the closest Junior Olympics team you could have ever found,” Logan said. This was the first time he got to experience his own win, instead of trying to live those moments vicariously through his older brother.But Logan won’t ever forget traveling down to Champaign to see Ross compete for the Illini. He still has a poster of the 2005-2006 Illinois squad – which featured his brother and current head coach Justin Spring – hanging on his wall. Yet, deep down, Logan knew he would never be a part of those squads, and no matter how much he wanted to be just like his big brother, he couldn’t. Ross eventually became an All-American on high bar, while Logan would earn the honor performing on pommel horse. The eldest Bradley brother said that he never wanted Logan to feel like he had to live up to what he had accomplished, and he never felt any pressure knowing his little brother
Illinois’ Logan Bradley pauses in his routine at the meet against Michigan on March 12. was watching. Ross said that his relationship with Logan meant a lot more than any comparison ever could, and the only thing he wanted Logan to mimic or take away from his career was the intangibles. “One of the things I wanted to try and instill in him is when you have a bad day, you look at that bad day and try to find some kind of positive in there,” Ross said. “It’s all about how you react to adversity and how
you come back from that. That’s how you turn it around, and that’s how you become a champion.” Logan has used his brother’s advice during his entire career, and now just days are left of it. There are still two awards he would like to add to his trophy case – neither of which he or his brother has been able to accomplish so far. Nominated for the Nissen Emery Award, given to the nation’s top male gymnast, and getting his last shot at
an NCAA Championship this weekend in Columbus, Ohio, Logan is ready to represent the Bradley family and their 10 years of dedication to the Illini one last time. Logan said that it would mean everything for him to end his career with such prestigious gymnastics honors, but the family memories together matter more. When Logan dismounts off the pommel horse at the NCAA Championships, he predicts that will be the

moment when the finality of the journey hits him. Regardless of if he helps his team bring an 11th NCAA trophy back to Champaign or if he is crowned the nation’s top male gymnast – Logan’s biggest fan, his older brother, believes he should walk off the mat with his head held high. ”He turned out to be a damn good gymnast,” Ross said.

Danielson and Detry to compete together at Purdue Seniors battle of breaking records to come to an end BY RYAN WILSON STAFF WRITER
Illinois men’s golf’s fans are about to end an era of watching two of the best golfers in the program’s history compete together. Seniors Charlie Danielson and Thomas Detry — two names that we should expect to hear often after their graduations — have been battling each other to see who can break more
this summer…
school records throughout their Illini career. On one end of the ring, there is the lanky, threetime All-American. and Osceola, Wisconsin grad, Danielson. His 2013-2014 season average of 71.25 was the fifth-best in school history, and for his career, he has the second-best average in Illini history. At the other corner, there is the two-time AllAmerican from Brussels, Detry. His 2014-2015 70.76 stroke average was a single-season best for Illinois. Detry’s average the year before was the 3rd best, and to top it off, he leads Danielson — among all other alums-turned profession-
als — with his 71.75 career stroke average. It is the best in program history, and .12 ahead of Danielson. The pair will tee up for one last regular season tour-
by 32 strokes thanks to a final score of a 35-underpar. The Illini’s 268 second-round score was the second-lowest 54-hole total in program history.

“We schedule these events to build momentum as a team going into the championships,” head coach Mike
Small said after last year’s tournament. “I think we accomplished that.” Illinois had four players finish in the top four of the tournament. Then-senior Brian Campbell carded a 6-under to finish 4th. Sophomore Dylan Meyer shot a 9-under for 3rd. And the co-leaders were — almost coincidentally — Danielson and Detry. They both shot a 10-under — the 18th lowest 54-hole individual score in Illinois history. Still, Detry’s name may be mentioned more in the record book than his senior counterpart. But there’s one thing Danielson has this season that Detry does not yet have: an
individual title. The senior from Wisconsin took the Crooked Stick Intercollegiate individual title on Oct. 13, and it is Illinois’ only such win this season. If the season ended now, it would be the first time since the 2005-06 season in which the Illini win just one individual title. “My game is good; Thomas is playing solid,” Danielson said. “Both sophomores (Nick Hardy and Meyer) are starting to get in the groove, and Edoardo (Lipparelli) and (Alex) Burge are battling it out.”

Hield to prove he is this draft’s best bet class. Hield, unless something dramatic changes in the next few months, will likely not be the first or secondoverall draft pick. That honor will probably go to Ben Simmons or Brandon Ingram, which makes perfect sense, as dominant post players are still valuable. It is undeniable, though, that the NBA has become more of a shooter’s league now than in any other previous era. This is simply a byproduct of the natural evolution of the game. Based on the revolution Curry has spearheaded, Hield comes along at the perfect time to be the next great shooter to light up the league. The great shooting season the Bahamian had as a senior should do nothing more than reinforce the idea that he will have no problem adjusting to NBA defenses. Hield shot 45.7 percent from three, over 50 percent from the field and 88 percent from the line, helping lead his team to the Final Four. His effective field goal percentage stood at 62.3 percent, while his true shooting percentage stood at 66.5 percent. Watch any highlight package of his, and one thing that immediately stands out is his deep, Curry-like range. Opponents will have to respect his shooting ability from 26 to 30 feet away.

T
he outside shooting revolution has taken the NBA by storm. It has produced a generation-defining, record-breaking superstar and perhaps the best team in its history, and is now bound to trickle down to the next generation of NBA stars. Given the exploits of Stephen Curry and the Warriors, elite scorers with a penchant to thrive beyond the arc are in demand and a certain graduating senior is bound to draw attention from every lottery team. Of course, I am speaking of Oklahoma guard Buddy Hield. I do not mean to directly compare Hield to Curry, but the similarities are tough not to notice. Both had some of the best individual performances in the NCAA tournament, and both have an ability to knock down impossible shots late in the game. What Curry has done over the last two seasons, and combined with Hield’s shooting ability, is what makes this comparison so much more palatable. The door Curry has opened to prolific jump shooters is what ultimately gives the former Sooner the highest ceiling of any prospect in this year’s draft

His impressive senior season indicates how genial his decision to stay in college one more year turned out to be. As great as Simmons and Ingram could easily be, the fact that Hield spent four full seasons in college means that he is more NBA-ready than any one-and-done. Hield’s strengths go beyond just his abilities as a shooter. His skills as a ballhandler not only make it nearly impossible to defend him as he dances and jives to free himself for a jumper, these skills will allow him to excel in attacking the rim. As a senior, Hield shot about 63 percent within five feet of the basket and averaged 1.7 more free throws per game than he did in his junior season, revealing him to be more than just a shooter. Unlike point guards of the past, Hield’s game is not predicated on driving to the hoop with jump shooting as a nice complement. Instead, he can both shoot and drive, a skill few college point guards possess. This makes him similar to some of the guards excelling in the NBA like Damian Lillard, James Harden and, of course, Stephen Curry. If anything, Hield resembles a combination of the three with his ball-handling, shooting and driving. 5 of That is not the kind player anyone will want to defend in a matter of a few

MEN’S TENNIS
For seniors, final weekend is bittersweet BY ALEX WALLNER STAFF WRITER
This weekend, seniors Jared Hiltzik and Brian Page will play their fi nal two regular season home matches, hoping to end their Illini tennis careers on a high note. First up for the duo is Michigan State. The Spartans come into Atkins Tennis Center unranked and have yet to win a conference match this season. They’ve also been swept in five out of their last six matches and are 0-11 this season against ranked teams. Regardless of the Spartans’ struggles against the Illini in recent years, Hiltzik said he doesn’t play any differently, regardless of the opponent’s record. “I take every match seriously and never look into previous history to determine our results,� Hiltzik said. “Every match is the same.� Hiltzik is ranked No. 12 in the ITA singles rankings and the Spartans do not have a ranked singles player.
In three previous matchups against Michigan State, the Wilmette native won all three of his matchups against Spartan opponents, but has been tested. Michigan State has struggled on the road, posting an 0-8 record. Last season, Illinois defeated Michigan State in East Lansing, but overall the Spartans have not done well against the Illini, dropping their last 16 regular season meetings. After facing the Spartans, the Illini will face Michigan, which will prove more of a challenge. The team will bring one ranked doubles team and one ranked singles player. In five matches against ranked teams this season, Michigan has won three. The Wolverines are 2-0 on their four-match road trip, with Northwestern and Illinois concluding the trip. Michigan has not defeated the Illini since the 20122013 season, Hiltzik’s freshman campaign, where the Wolverines won in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Both teams are compet-
ing for the top seed at the Big Ten championships, which is just two weeks away, and the Illini are looking to successfully defend their Big Ten title. “I am so excited for Big Tens,� Hiltzik said. “It’s going to take a consistent effort from everyone on the team to win the title. Every spot in our lineup is going to have to perform.� Currently, both teams sit with one conference loss. Illinois’ lone loss came to Northwestern in the fi rst Big Ten match of the conference slate. With the end of his career fast approaching, Hiltzik knows this weekend will be tough. “It will defi nitely be an emotional day for me,� Hiltzik said. “I bleed ‘Orange and Blue.’ I have put my heart and soul into this school, and I am incredibly thankful for everything I have learned from being here. It was a privilege to attend this university.�
