Andreas Cangellaris replaces Michael Bragg as dean of College of Engineering DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
Editor’s note: The following article was originally published June 20. The College of Engineering will be under new leadership this fall. The college a nnounced Andreas Cangellaris its new dean Thursday, June 20. Cangellaris was interim dean designate until the University Board of Trustees voted on the hiring at its meeting in late July. He officially took over Aug.
16. Cangellari is replacing Michael Bragg, who had been serving as interim dean since July 2012 but will become dean of the University of Washington College of Engineering in July. “Andreas Cangellaris has shown exemplary leadership as head of his department, in addition to exceptional achievements in education and research,” Provost Ilesanmi Adesida said in a press release. Adesida served as engineering dean from 2005-12. “I am confident that the
vision and drive that he will bring as dean will enhance the interdisciplinary scholarship and innovation that characterize the College of Engineering.” Cangellaris has been the head of the electrical and computer engineering department since 2008 and a part of the Illinois faculty since 1997. Cangellaris earned his doctorate degree in electrical engineering from University of California at Berkeley in 1985 and has been an author or co-author of 250 papers.
Taste of C-U offers food, fun BY AUSTIN BAIRD DESIGN EDITOR
Editor’s note: The following article was originally published June 24. The Champaign Park District held its 43rd annual Taste of Champaign-Urbana this summer from June 21-23. The festival, which brings together local foods, music and arts, was located at West Side Park in Champaign. Tickets were sold at the event and could be spent on various foods and alcohol from local businesses throughout the three-day festival. All proceeds from the event benefited the Champaign Park District’s Youth Program Scholarship Fund. This fund is used to provide local youth who otherwise could not afford to participate in recreational programs due to fi nancial problems. A wide variety of restaurants attended the fundraising festival. From Ko Fusion and Wingin’ Out to Smoothie King and Noodles and Company, festival goers had quite the selection of local foods. Despite the poor weather, the restaurants still saw a sufficient number of customers at each of their tents.
Periodical postage paid at Champaign, IL 61821. The Daily Illini is published Monday through Friday during University of Illinois fall and spring semesters, and Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday in summer. New Student Guide and Welcome Back Edition are published in August. First copy is free; each additional copy is 50 cents. Local, U.S. mail, out-of-town and out-of-state rates available upon request.
Adrienne Wingler, assistant general manager at Manolo’s Pizzas and Empanadas, said that even with the unpleasant weather conditions, she felt the turnout was positive. “Despite the weather, there’s actually been a really good turnout. We’ve done quite well,” Wingler said. “(Friday) was really busy. Friday night is usually the night that everybody comes out. The rest of the weekend (the attendance) is more spread out. (The turnout) is decent for the rain and storm we just had.” Wingler went on to say that the festival does allow them to showcase their limited but diverse menu — consisting of both regular menu items and new additions — to new and returning customers every year. “We do the Taste of Champaign-Urbana every year,” Wingler said. “I believe this is our fi fth year here. It gives people a good opportunity to sample our foods and to try the new products we’ve come up with.” Jen Boyle, a member of the Champaign community, said that she enjoyed her fi rst year attending the Taste of Champaign-Urbana event on
Saturday. “I came to try the different foods. This is actually the fi rst year I’ve been, and I’ve lived here for almost 10 years now,” Boyle said. “It’s good. I think there’s a pretty good crowd, even with the rain. There’s a good selection of different types of food; it’s not just all one thing.” Boyle said that she’d tried a couple of the foods offered and found them “delicious.” “I had a raspberry cheesecake empanada from Manolo’s,” she said. “It was delicious. I also got a Thai Iced Coffee from Siam Terrace.” Boyle went on to say that she will defi nitely be returning next year “even if it’s cold and rainy.” “I really wish I’d come earlier than (this year),” she added. Other than food, the festival hosted a variety of local bands. Ryan Ideus and the Feudin’ Hillbillys, Outbound Drive and Mhondoro were all scheduled to perform at the event. There were also other arts and crafts available for purchase throughout the weekend.

Top Illini sprinters follow coach to Texas Two-time national champion Spencer, Akinosun transfer, leave Garner with hole DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
Editor’s note: This article originally appeared in the August 4 version of The Daily Illini. Top Illini sprinters Ashley Spencer and Morolake Akinosun are following their coach to Texas, the duo announced in late July. This comes more than a month after Illini women’s track and field coach Tonja BufordBailey left Illinois to become the associate head coach for Texas’ newly combined men and women program. Spencer, a junior, won two NCAA titles in the 400-meter dash in her two seasons as an Illini. Sophomore Akinosun, along with Spencer, this past year contributed to a squad that fi nished fifth in the NCAA in the 1600-meter relay, breaking the school mark. The team fi nished 14th overall. The Daily Illini named Spencer, who is a
12-time Big Ten champion, as the athlete of the year this past spring. Spencer also won Big Ten Athlete of the Year honors for both indoor and outdoor competitions. Spencer, in an early May interview, said it’s easier for her to learn from her coach when Buford-Bailey has accomplished what Spencer wants to do. “Before I came to Illinois, I researched (Buford-Bailey). We ran similar events and just considering her four-year stint at Illinois and not considering her professional career was impressive enough. She’s very easy to talk to and she’s like my mom away from my mom, and that helps a lot,� she said. Buford-Bailey left the program in late June after spending 10 years with the Illini, five as the women’s coach. She also coached men’s sprinters, including hurdler Andrew Riley, for three seasons.

New Illini coach announced DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
Athletic director Mike Thomas named Ron Garner the head coach of the Illinois women’s track and field team in June. Garner returns to Illinois after serving as an assistant coach for the women’s track team from 1991-98. During his first tenure at Illinois, Garner was a part of a combined six Big Ten championships in six seasons, as well as two top-four team finishes in the NCAA. This will be Garner’s second tenure as a head coach after leading both the women’s track and women’s cross-country teams at Clemson in 1998-99, when he was named the ACC Outdoor Coach of the Year. Most recently, Garner was an assistant for both the male and female teams at South Carolina, focusing on sprints and relays and coaching 20 All-Americans in just two seasons.
The Daily Illini named her the No. 1 female athlete in the last 40 years to forward athletics at Illinois in honor of the 40 year anniversary of Title IX last year. “It was a tough decision to leave my alma mater,� Buford-Bailey said in a statement. “The University of Illinois allowed me to grow as person, athlete and coach. They have been a family to me and I appreciate all the support I’ve received over the years and even during this process.�

Violence dramatically escalates in Champaign over summer
Champaign plans to increase presence to combat increase of shootings including 12 in June alone DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
The Champaign Police Department is increasing its presence in areas with high calls for service following a number of shooting incidents this summer, including 12 in June. Officers also responded to two calls for shots fired in late July and another call in August. Champaign Police have declined an interview about the shootings, but Chief Anthony Cobb said in a July 1 press release: “We are addressing these crimes by partnering with community agencies that provide services to high risk offenders and by increasing our presence in neighborhoods where the shootings have occurred. It will take both the community and police partnering together to stop this violence. We can’t do it alone.� Police believe the June crimes may have been drug-related or retaliatory. In the course of their investigations, police said they have identified 38 individuals that were allegedly involved with gang members, who worked together to commit these shootings and other crimes. Nine suspects were arrested for their alleged involvement in the incident. The incident nearest to campus happened at the corner of Fourth and Green streets in the IHOP parking lot and prompted University officials to issue an Illini-Alert. One suspect was in custody immediately following the shooting and two at large, according to the Illini-Alert. Three more shootings happened in July and August, including one in broad daylight at Douglass Park on July 23. Police said witnesses reported that a male suspect got out of a dark-colored SUV and shot at three people who were sitting at the picnic table nearby. According to police, the suspect ran back into the car. Both the driver and the suspect left before officers arrived.
Less than a week later, according to the police report following the incident, two males were involved in argument in the 1200 block of Carver Drive that escalated into the suspects pulling guns and shooting at each other. Neither suspect was injured in the July 28 shootings, though two homes were damaged from gunfire. Additionally, a Champaign officer was involved in a traffic stop shooting incident early morning on Aug. 14. Both the driver and the officer were taken to the hospital after a gun discharged during a scuffle near North Sixth Street and Bradley Avenue.
“We are addressing these crimes by partnering with community agencies that provide services to high risk offenders and by increasing our presence...� ANTHONY COBB, Champaign police chief
Champaign Police said a squad car video shows an officer asking a 20-year-old Champaign man to step away from the car. While the driver was getting out of the car, the officer saw the man pull out a gun from his pants and point the muzzle to his head. A scuffle subsequently followed in which the weapon was discharged, striking the driver. Both the officer and the driver were injured but received medical attention.

University Police issued Crime Alerts last weekend The University Police Department is investigating an attempted robbery early Saturday morning and a robbery that night. In the first incident, police said the victim was southbound on Wright Street, south of Springfield Avenue near Talbot Lab, while the four suspects were walking north around 2:45 a.m. When the victim passed them, they knocked the victim to the ground, kicking and punching several times. A suspect attempted to steal personal property from the victim’s pockets, but the victim fought back and shouted for police, which at that point the four suspects ran north on Wright Street. Saturday night, two similar attacks involving three suspects on bicycles occurred, according to University Police. In the attack that occured on campus, police say the victim was held at gunpoint while being searched by a suspect. According to the Crime Alert, a victim was attacked in Parking Lot 21, which is between the Engineering Science Building and the Aero Dynamics Lab in Urbana. At approximately 8:30 p.m., the victim was struck from behind with a black handgun and shortly after searched, while being held at gunpoint. Police say the suspects took an i-card and rode south on Goodwin Avenue. Police said a similar incident happened near the corner of First and Healey streets about an hour later. In that attack, the victim was kicked and punched by a suspect, who was with two others riding bicycles.

Physics professor Gollin to run for Congress BY KAT BOEHLE STAFF WRITER
Editor’s note: The following article was originally published July 29. University physics professor George Gollin announced his intent to run for Congress July 23 at the Champaign County Fair. Gollin will seek the Democratic nomination to run for the 13th Congressional District, a seat currently held by Republican Rodney Davis. “Washington has plenty of lawyers, I’m a teacher and a scientist,” Gollin said in his campaign announcement. “Certainly law is an honorable profession, but as a scientist, I was trained to discover the facts, and act on them. Lawyers, on the other hand, are trained to argue about the facts. I think we have enough argument in Washington already, and need more facts.” To broaden on his reasons of running, Gollin said that he
got involved in higher education policy back in 2003 when he learned of “diploma mills,” which are criminal organizations that sell fake degrees. He had started to help with federal legislation on this, and when this bill reached the senate, Sen. Mike Enzi (R-Wyoming) had “tanked” most of the legislation. “This was meant to stop people (from) selling fake medical degrees across state lines, so I was very distressed with that,” Gollin said. “Once the bill got out of a position where I was no longer able to influence it, politics and dirty money got in the way.” Gollin said that there were other energy policies that went in a similar manner when Congress got involved, and he felt it was time to get involved in the legislative process directly. “It’s wanting to do public service to make my horizons a little bit broader,” he said. Gollin said he has lots of poli-
cy interests, and he feels that the most pressing issue to work on right now is job creation, more specifically in encouraging people to complete college degrees to help open up the workforce. Although degree mills is a pressing issue, if elected, Gollin said that he would focus on more important issues. “We know how to kill off the whole diploma mill industry, it’s just a matter of political will,” Gollin said. “In two years, it will be gone.” Starting in the spring, Gollin said that he will be taking a unpaid leave from teaching and research. He said he will continue the unpaid leave until he “either loses an election or retires from Congress.” Gollin said that, with the University being a state institution, the administration emphasizes public service to faculty and are therefore very supportive of his campaign. Gollin said he first got involved
with degree mills when he called up a “degree ad” that he was constantly receiving and got a sales pitch on fake degrees. He then did more research on diploma mills and found out that they would go as far as selling degrees to terrorists, which he said makes it a hazard. “Some very bad people in Spokane saw that I had published a report about them,” Gollin said. “They came after me which led to fight and threats. It was pretty scary, but I got the Department of Justice interested, and the authorities brought me in as an analyst.” He said that this eventually led to the arrest of those who had came after him in Spokane. The publicity had attracted representatives, which led to the writing of the legislation. This led to Gollin writing a book, “Dream of Serpents,” that he recently fi nished and is hoping to get published.
Whether Gollin’s election would be beneficial to the University and students, he said that he believed having an educator as a politician would be benefi cial for all educational institutions. He also plans to address the spike in costs of attending college. “The whole issue on how expensive it is to go to college is something that really needs pressure to be brought to bear on those who set the administrative structure of universities,” Gollin said. Gollin said that as someone who has worked for the University since 1989, he is well aware of any issues that students are having, which includes the trouble of students registering to vote. “I understand that my fi rst obligation is to be a public servant, to understand the needs of people in the district, and try to defend and protect their interest and their well-being,” he said.
Former Miss America, Urbana native Harold running for 13th district BY CORINNE RUFF STAFF WRITER
Editor’s note: The following article was originally published June 10. Dozens gathered around the steps of Urbana High School on June 4 as University alumna and Urbana native Erika Harold announced her intention to run in the 2014 race for the Republican nomination in the 13th congressional district. Harold will challenge incumbent Rodney Davis, who won the seat in 2012, after former Rep. Tim Johnson announced he would not seek re-election. The 2003 Miss America winner said she knows she is entering an arena where people will ask her, “Do you really want world peace?” and question her background in beauty pageants. But Harold said she is
ready to step into the arena because she knows she isn’t doing it alone. “I chose to enter an arena where I could actually make a difference,” Harold said in response to why she chose to run for Congress rather than the Illinois Senate or House. In her speech, Harold highlighted a few priorities for her campaign, including crop insurance for farmers, a growing economy to ensure jobs for college students attending the many universities within the district and the preservation of faithbased groups. “(Universities are) a high priority for me because I think the cost of education is rising in a way that I think isn’t keeping pace with the amount of money students can earn,” she said. Harold said she is looking into concrete proposals to address the rising cost of debt for students.
With the primaries in March, Gollin said that he and his campaign are already planning campaign events that emphasize learning more about District 13 and its residents. “It’s important for someone in office, or running for office, to really learn about the district,” Gollin said. “So what I really want to start soon is to begin a listening tour. I want to go around and have people talk to me about their concerns.” Gollin concluded saying that in politics, it’s best to be optimistic. “In my experience, it’s best to be positive and optimistic, because that is actually the way things work,” he said. “There are real problems in our governance, and it seems like nothing can change, but in my experience, there are surprises in how events unfold.”

UI Foundation raises record funds of $428 million Fundraising foundation reached goal by gifts, grants and pledges DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT

DAILY ILLINI FILE PHOTO
Former Miss America and Urbana native, Erika Harold, announced her intentions to run as the Republican candidate for the 13th congressional district on June 4. Following her speech, Harold said reforms in the criminal justice system are also a priority to her campaign, specifically looking at how to use tax dollars to give inmates an opportunity to rehabilitate themselves. “I am committed to making the case for how conservative principles expand opportunities for the individual, for more entrepreneurship, for more economic growth,” she said.
Harold said she also hopes to garner support from residents in the swing district who may not tend to vote conservatively. Harold said she will also continue to pursue legal work at Meyer Capel attorney’s office in Champaign as she runs her campaign over the next year.

Zeta Tau Alpha denied historic landmark status
Urbana Free Library to separate from director Board’s separation decision fueled by community unrest
Women’s fraternity property owners argue too big of burden
BY KAT BOEHLE
DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
Editor’s note: The following article was originally published Aug. 10. An ordinance to declare a women’s fraternity house near campus historic failed to receive enough votes at the Urbana City Council on Monday. The proposal, which needed a two-third majority, would have designated the Zeta Tau Alpha house, located at 1404 S. Lincoln Ave., as an historic landmark. This comes after the plan received the Historic Preservation Commission’s blessings but was opposed by the property owners, the Zeta Tau Alpha Housing Fraternity Association. A lawyer for the group has

said that the designation would put a burden on the owners, as major changes to the exterior would have to be approved. But applicant Brianna Kraft, who recently graduated the University, said in her application that the house has a significant value to the University and neighboring communities. The city council initially discussed the plan at its June 14 meeting, but it unanimously decided to send it a committee to be more thoroughly vetted. And the measure was scheduled for a vote at the council’s July 15 meeting before being pushed back to Aug. 12. The building has been vacant since 2009.

LED inventor Nick Holonyak, Jr. retires Renowned engineering professor steps down following 50 years at University DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
Editor’s note: The following article was originally published Aug. 7. A well-known engineering professor retired from the University earlier this month. LED inventor Nick Holonyak, Jr., 84, stepped down from his post as the John Bardeen endowed chair in electrical and computer engineering and physics July 31. He’s been a professor at the campus since 1963, a year after he invented the first visible LED while working at General Electric in Syracuse, N.Y. Holonyak, along with his work, was honored last year at the LED symposium on campus. He was awarded the prestigious Lemelson–MIT Prize in 2004. In 1963, he predicted in a Reader’s Digest issue that his invention

would someday replace Thomas Edison’s incandescent light bulbs. “I told (the reporter) at that time, ‘As far as I’m concerned, since we’re just at the beginning of this, there is a lot more to do and there will be further progress to go further from the red, to the orange, to the yellow, to the green, to the blue and the visible spectrum,’” Holonyak told the Technograph last year. “And I thought it would be only about 10 years or so to get the next part and the next part. I didn’t realize it would be 50 years, but I had told (the reporter) that we would get to white light. I just didn’t know it would take 50 years.” He earned a PhD in electrical engineering from the University in 1954.

The Urbana Free Library will now be looking for a new executive director. The board of trustees meeting on July 9 ended with President Chris Scherer announcing that the board came to an early separation agreement with current executive director Debra Lissak. Scherer said Lissak’s end date will be figured out in the next couple weeks as the trustees search for an interim director. This early separation agreement comes after June’s special board meeting when dozens of Urbana residents spoke to the board about their disagreement with the rapid and extensive book weeding that happened in the nonfiction section of the library in early June. Carol Inskeep, an employee of adult services, said 9,600 books were weeded from nonfiction in a matter of four days. After the objection of the Urbana community, the library contacted Better World Books, a retailer where the weeded books were sent, to see if they could return as many books as possible. Scherer said the books that were returned will be weeded with the usual UFL standards. Books that are chosen to be weeded out will be given to Friends of the Library for a book sale. Community members asked for Lissak’s resignation or replacement at the special meeting in June and a “lack of leadership” was discussed during public comment at the July 9 board meeting. As for why the weeding is happening, Lissak said in an question-and-answer page shortly after it become public on the library’s website about the weeding that this is in part to make browsing books easier for library users. It is also to free up floor space for more seating in the library and to allow for more space of newly released books.

CHICAGO — The student trustee from the Urbana campus Not valid with other coupons or offers. Expires will hold the official vote at 11/17/13. Online Code: 1OFFCMBO Board of Trustees meetings. Gov.

one from each campus, generally voice their opinions in unity. Before the July 24 retreat and July 25 regular meeting, Cunningham said he had the chance to speak with the other student board members, making time to go through the items they and the regular board members will be voting on. St udent t r ustees were officially instilled during the morning session. Cunningham will serve on two committees: the Audit, Budget, Finance and Facilities Committee and the Academic and Student Affairs
Committee. Cunningham edged out Brian Siegel, senior in Media and former Illini Media employee, in the student trustee race this past spring by fewer than 200 votes. Daniel Soso in 2010-11 was the last Urbana student who held the official vote. Students have served on the board since 1973, and one has had voting power each year since 1998.

Although still in the offseason, the Illinois football team received some good news June 17 when former Oklahoma State quarterback Wes Lunt announced he would be transferring to Illinois. He will have to sit out one season per NCAA transfer rules, but will have three years of eligibility remaining. The Rochester, Ill., native considered the Illini right out of high school but ultimately chose Oklahoma State. He was the No. 7 prostyle quarterback in his class and the No. 9 player in Illinois, according to Rivals. Lunt was named the starter as a true freshman for the Cowboys before injuries derailed his season. He set a Big 12 freshman record of 436 passing yards in a
BRADLEY LEEB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Illinois quarterbacks Nathan Scheelhaase (2), Wes Lunt (12) and Aaron Bailey (15) look on during the first day of training camp at Memorial Stadium on Aug. 5. Lunt transferred to Illinois in June. 59-36 loss to Arizona on Sept. 8 before missing time after injuring his knee in the first quarter the following week against Louisiana-Lafayette. He returned to the starting lineup in a win against TCU on Oct. 27, but sustained a concussion during the next game against Kansas State. The 6-foot-5 signal caller fi nished the season with 1,108 yards, six touchdowns and seven interceptions.
While Lunt’s arrival is welcome news in Champaign, it creates a potential quarterback controversy in 2014. The Illini have true freshman Aaron Bailey waiting behind Nathan Scheelhaase this season, and he was also extremely highly rated coming out of high school. Bailey was the No. 5 player in Illinois in the 2013 class and was named the No. 9 dual-threat quarterback by Rivals.
Lunt seems to fit in with new offensive coordinator Bill Cubit’s spread passing attack from Western Michigan, while Bailey is more of a runner and is able to create plays running the ball as well. Bailey has said that he will stay at Illinois, but he is not open to changing positions.

Wise offers new strategic plan Plan includes hiring of 500 new faculty members BY JOHNATHAN HETTINGER STAFF WRITER
Over the summer, Chancellor Phyllis Wise and Provost Ilesanmi Adesida announced a new three-year strategic plan for the University. The campus leaders’ 2013-2014 plan calls for many vast changes, in addition to slight improvements in almost every facet of the campus. The plan’s goal is to make the University the “pre-eminent public research university with a landgrant mission and global impact,” according to the plan. One of the staples of the plan is to hire 500 new faculty members over the next five years. The number of faculty members on campus has been declining since 2008.
Wise said the University didn’t hire faculty to replace the departing members due to budget constraints and uncertainty about the future, and because of that decision, the University can afford to hire new faculty members with the money saved. Wise said she isn’t sure where faculty members will be hired. “We want to pay real attention to where is student demand, what majors are the most popular and are we understaffed (in that area)?” she said. In addition to hiring new faculty members, the plan created many new ways for faculty to work together. “So much learning and discovery is done in teams so what we’re trying to do is hire four or five faculty all in one area, so they complement each other,” Wise said. In addition to hiring complementary faculty members, the plan calls for a searchable faculDARYL QUITALIG THE DAILY ILLINI

President Easter’s contract extended through 2014-15 academic year to students and a place where innovative research is done that contributes substantially to the state’s economy,” Easter said. “I feel comfortable that we made a lot of progress in all of those areas.” Although Easter has only been president for one year, he has worked at the University’s Urbana campus for most of his nearly 40-year career. He has served as a senior administrator, a faculty member, dean of the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences and interim chancellor. “Each level of responsibility has involved a greater separation from the delivery of our primary teaching, research and public service missions, and there is some sense of sadness associated with that (because) I enjoy teaching and still give a few lectures,” Easter said. “On the other hand, this position creates the opportunity to engage more broadly in the state and beyond in important conversations about the future of higher education ... that’s been exciting.” Easter said he is now working on forming new goals for the 2013-2014 school year.

University President Robert Easter received a contract extension and a performance-based salary bonus in July, as he was completing his first year as president. He will now oversee the University of Illinois campuses until mid-2015. “I was humbled that the Board of Trustees asked me to continue for another year beyond my current contract,” Easter said in an email. “I have found the job to be intellectually challenging and rewarding, and I look forward to working with a very committed Board of Trustees for the next two years.” The trustees approached Easter about extending his contract this summer. The board’s Executive Committee will evaluate the progress of established goals and will determine any additional compensation in September 2013. Though Easter’s base salary is $450,000 per year, it is expected to increase when employees receive salary bonuses in September. “We ... as a Board of Trustees (were) out speaking with important constituents. ... Through those conversations and more broadly in the entire Illinois community, it became clear that there was enormous support to extend President Easter’s lead-
ership,” board chairman Christopher Kennedy said after the July meeting. Kennedy said there will be a comprehensive, national search for a new president about a year before Easter’s eventual retirement. “A critical issue with the University is personnel attracting and retaining great leadership — and that great leadership needs to be led by a great leader,” Kennedy said. He said Easter has gained support with both the Board of Trustees and other University executives with his actions this past year. “A lot of people think of (Easter) as providing stable leadership — I would describe him as being a dynamic leader,” Kennedy said. “I think he’s been an extraordinary leader for the University of Illinois.” Easter said his first goal as president this past year was to gain a more complete understanding of the campuses in Chicago and Springfield and to develop relationships with state leaders in both the public and private sectors of the University. “(I wanted to) build the University of Illinois’ reputation as a top institution that provides transformative education

Bicycle safety. smoking among policies to be strongly enforced on campus
Smoking ban to take effect Jan. 1 2014, may become Illinois law BY SARI LESK STAFF WRITER
JOHN BAZEMORE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Parents cheer as busses arrive with students after an incident at Ronald McNair Discovery Learning Academy on Tuesday in Decatur, Ga. Superintendent Michael Thurmond said on Tuesday all students at Ronald E. McNair Discovery Learning Academy in Decatur east of Atlanta are accounted for and safe and that he is not aware of any injuries.
With the new school year approaching, local police are reminding students about safety measures and local policies that will be enforced. Over the past few years, bicycle safety has become a major focus for local police departments. Officers began issuing more citations to bicyclists in the fall 2012 semester. Deputy Chief Skip Frost, of the University of Illinois Police Department, said his department will be more active in enforcing bicycle safety ordinances when students return to campus. “We will be elevating our focus on bicycles basically because we have seen over the past couple years that there have been some pretty significant injuries due to bicyclist behavior,” Frost said. “With the increase in bicycles, sometimes the behavior of motorists and pedestrians have caused bicyclist issues as well.” The bicycle safety rules come from city ordinances and the Illinois vehicle code. In addition, students can expect enforcement of a new University policy: a smoking ban will officially take effect on campus January 1, 2014. Because the smoking ban is a matter of University policy and

University Police ready for new concealed carry law BY SARI LESK STAFF WRITER
Following Illinois’ passing of the Firearm Concealed Carry Act on July 9, the state’s institutions are preparing to handle the lawful carrying of concealed handguns while Illinois citizens await the opportunity to obtain licenses. The act grants the Illinois State Police 180 days to make necessary arrangements for the state to properly carry out the
new law, which includes establishing a process to provide applications to the public. Monique Bond, spokeswoman for the ISP, said the enactment of this act places responsibility on the department for many administrative processes, including the creation of a new unit to deal with issues pertaining to concealed carry. Bond said the undertaking will cost about $25 million dollars. Bond also said the ISP hopes
everyone behaves in a law-abiding manner when applications become available. “What we believe is that people will obtain their licenses and follow the law and understand what the laws and the rules are regarding the license,” she said. The new law will affect officer training for local police departments more than the ISP, as most of the ISP’s patrol is on the road. For the University’s police department, however, passage of
the law has not posed any need for drastic changes. The law enumerates restrictions regarding where people cannot carry concealed weapons, which include all buildings owned or leased by a college or university, as well as parking areas and sidewalks under a college or university’s control. University Police Deputy Chief Skip Frost said individuals can legally carry concealed weapons in the campus district
once permits are issued. Concealed carry is legal in privately owned businesses unless a sign is posted saying otherwise, and not every street and sidewalk in the campus district is controlled by the University. “There is no good cookie-cutter approach,” Frost said. He also said the carrying of concealed firearms will not be a major concern for the department because of the restriction on university property, but the
UIPD is preparing as needed. “We’ve been in very close contact with the state’s attorney’s office and with the ISP and everybody about this,” he said. “We’re on it. We know it’s coming, and we’ll deal with it when it comes about.” Part of the UIPD’s preparations has included reaching out to peer institutions, such as the University of Wisconsin-Madi-

‘No More’ domestic violence intiative expanding to raise awareness BY JACQUI OGRODNIK STAFF WRITER
The Central Illinois Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Task Force is working to expand its “No More” initiative, launched last May. The task force calls for a reduction in domestic violence and sexual assault rates. “It is an initiative to bring
together all people, organizations and communities that support anti-domestic violence and sexual assault in our society,” said Jean Algee, the domestic violence program manager for the Center for Women in Transition, which organizes the task force. The task force is comprised of judges, sheriffs, attorneys,
religious leaders, doctors and mayors from the Champaign, Ford, Douglas and Piatt counties, Algee said. “The basic initiative is to bring awareness to communities (of) the existence of the issues and also to involve not just social workers but all people, especially men,” said Lisa Little, co-chair of the task force
and court advocate for the Center for Women in Transition. Little said the purpose of the task force is to increase awareness in the community, increase accountability for offenders, give justice for the victims of domestic violence and increase involvement within communities and institutions. “The idea is to take the respon-
,OOLR
sibility of victims’ safety out of their hands and into the community’s hands and the agency’s hands,” said Stephanie Thurman, also co-chair of the task force and court advocate for the Center for Women in Transition. The task force is comprised of five groups: community education, victim justice, institution advocacy and resources, abuser
accountability and legislative. Each group has 5-15 members. Little said each group will identify their goals and move forward with the tasks that are needed to reach those goals. Those will be the goals that the task force as a whole will approach in the next few months.

Campus transformations
Champaign shootings
Urbana Free Library
Our campus is no longer representative of the flat lands that engulf central Illinois, it’s growing outward and up, replacing parking lots with skyscrapers and dorms with, well, better ones. Fall 2010 marked the beginning of the Ikenberry Commons, or “Six-Pack,” construction project with the completion of the newly-renovated Ikenberry Dining Hall and first new residence hall in nearly 40 years, Nugent Hall. Forbes Hall was recently demolished, making way for a third new residence hall to be completed Spring 2016. Campustown transformations will make Green Street the skyline for miles around. Near the southwest corner of Sixth and Green streets, Bankier Apartments has a 14-story apartment building in the works. JSM has proposed a 12-story hotel in Parking Lot J near Legends, while HERE Champaign, LLC has plans for a 27-story building with 143 residential units and retail stores where IHOP and Campus Liquors are currently located. Not urban enough for you? Check out Ragstock in the basement of what used to be Follet’s Bookstore, Wendy’s on Sixth and Green streets (and soon in the Union too) or the Urbana KoFusion set to open on Gregory and Oregon streets. Campus will continue to grow, change and expand — perhaps to the benefit of students, businesses and the University.
The biggest story here happened while most of you were gone. In June, 12 shootings occurred in Champaign, followed by two in July and another in August, which is unusually high for the Champaign– Urbana metropolitan area, especially during the summer. Although only one shooting was reported near the heart of campus — a June 23 incident in the IHOP parking lot near Fourth and Green streets — it’s critical for Champaign and University Police to have a presence near and on campus, taking time to reassure the safety of students and even parents who are helping their sons and daughters move in this week. These series of shootings were some of our most read, retweeted and clicked on stories all summer. Chief Anthony Cobb told us when he accepted the job that he planned to work with all citizens in Champaign. A group of that population is us: the student body. So we’d like to see him work with us — answering our questions — more than his predecessor did.
The Champaign-Urbana community was in an uproar in June when Smile Politely reported the Urbana Free Library weeded out vast amounts of books under fairly broad criteria: nonfiction books that were 10 years or older. That left major holes in the shelves of the library, which alarmed patrons. Those who pulled the books simply followed what they understood to be the instructions of library director Debra Lissak, but she says the arbitrary weeding happened because of miscommunications. While weeding may be necessary for a library, the way in which it was done at the Urbana Free Library was careless, and the anger of the community was well-deserved — community members from all over tend to take great ownership in their library. Lissak will be dismissed, but her end date has not been set. We hope the break is swift and clean.

Snow day
Suburban Express
If you are a returning student, you will probably remember the snow day fiasco we had in March, as most students were returning to campus from spring break. If you are a new student, here is the long story short: There was a huge snowstorm the day before classes started up again and University administration sent a mass email emphasizing that classes would resume as planned, but to postpone return trips to campus if students hadn’t already left. Nearly 4 hours later, and well into the night, classes were finally cancelled at 1:25 a.m. Keep in mind, there were already reports of numerous accidents and hazardous conditions along Interstate 57, a route many students travel on. Knowing how dangerous conditions were, classes should have been canceled much earlier that day. Not only did University administrators risk the safety of the students who were already on the road battling icy conditions so they wouldn’t miss class, it also left students noticing a lack of communication between University administrators. If another big snowstorm hits this year, let’s hope the University has a better plan for handling it.
This past spring, a student-driven social media outcry brought local, and national, attention and change to some of the questionable practices carried out by campus-based transporter Suburban Express. Suburban first drew the ire of campus on Facebook following allegations of discriminatory treatment toward an international student. Further revelations regarding the 126 lawsuits the company filed, many against University of Illinois students, did not sit well with people on or off campus. Suburban’s initially dismal handling of the matter only spurred more outrage. Students, and others, took their concerns online — notably to UIUC’s subreddit, where two threads went viral making the front page of Reddit — lobbying for better treatment and respect from the company. On April 29, facing mounting pressure from students, Suburban filed for a withdrawal of all 126 suits and revamped its terms and conditions, only to later request that 21 of the suits be reinstated without prejudice so they can be reopened in the future. The emergence of the story among local and national news outlets, as well as Suburban’s changes following the outcry, vindicated the ability of concerned students to bring about change and the growing power of digital protest.
The Supreme Court ruled on two momentous cases this summer: one regarding the Defense of Marriage Act and the other a provision of the Voting Rights Act. The DOMA case’s ruling removed the provision of the act that a marriage be between only one man and one woman, allowing thousands of couples legally married in states that permit same-sex marriage to receive federal benefits. While it didn’t legalize same-sex marriage nationally, it lit the path to full marriage equality. Illinois, which permits civil unions of same-sex couples, has not legalized marriage for them, and it must do so as soon as possible. *** The Voting Rights Act struck down one of its most essential provisions, allowing several states in the South to change their election laws without federal approval. Most states do not need to consult the federal government to change their laws, but because of justified fears of racism and discrimination in the South, the federal government maintained oversight. Now, it will only be a matter of time before the discrimination cases at the polls pick up speed.

Campus-wide smoking ban to take effect on January 1, 2014 BY SOPHIA SOPUCH CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Beginning January 1, 2014, smokers will have to refrain from lighting up on campus. The smoki ng ba n was included on a referendum in 2011 where about 70 percent of students voted to eliminate smoking on campus. Following the vote, the plan to implement the ban was left up to the University’s administration. Director of the University’s wellness center Michele Guerra said the wellness program has plans to launch a fall communication campaign to help inform students where they can and cannot smoke. There are plans for an online campus map that indicates the areas where smoking will and will not be permitted along with signs that will be put up around campus at the start of the school year. The website was implemented to help inform students about the smoking ban. The website contains a recommendation report, which thoroughly explains the different options that the University considered before ultimately deciding to become smoke-free. There is also a form allowing students to submit questions and feedback regarding the University becoming smoke free. T he c u r r e nt Urba n a -

Courtney Lai, a junior in LAS helps Donny Kwandindo, a recent graduate in ACES during "Blooms, not Butts", an event held at the Courtyard Cafe on April 23 in order to raise awareness of the benefits of a smoke-free campus. Champaign smoking policy states that students are not allowed to smoke inside or within 25 feet of University buildings. The new policy will entirely ban smoking on campus. If a student who smokes chooses to quit as a result of the new campus policy, there will be a resource made available to them, Guerra said. The Illinois Department of Public Health funds a program called Illinois tobacco Quitline, which offers a tobacco counseling hotline along with Nicotine Replacement Therapy.

not the law, Frost said the police will not be citing people who do not comply. Rather, the behavior will be dealt with through staff resources if the offender is a faculty member, and through the student code if the offender is a student. The smoking ban does have the potential to become a matter of the law, though, as Illinois lawmakers are considering legislation that would prohibit smoking on all state-supported institutions of higher education. The bill calls for a ban beginning on July 1, 2014. Frost wants to remind students that the UIPD is a resource for them, and that student safety is the departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s priority. He said students should know that the campus is safe, but it is not crime-free. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Crime can and does occur,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need the support of the community if weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to address those issues in a timely and effective manner.â&#x20AC;?
son. A concealed carry law took effect in Wisconsin on Nov. 1, 2011. The concealed carry laws are not identical from state to state, but Sgt. Aaron Chapin, of the University of Wisconsin-Madison Police Department, said his campus has not seen any significant change as a result of the law. The Wisconsin law allows concealed carry on a college or university campus, but the University of Wisconsin-Madison prohibits weapons in its buildings. Chapin said the law required procedural changes for how officers react to people carrying a weapon, which can now be done in a legal fashion. The law also created concern that people may be carrying illegal weapons in a manner that looks consistent with the law, for the purpose of doing harm later. While Chapin said he could not comment specifically on what the University can expect with concealed carry, he said a good safety practice is to alert authorities if a situation doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem right. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If somebody is acting suspiciously and then you see a weapon, or you know somebody who has got a weapon and then starts talking about doing harm to somebody else, those are things that need to be brought to the attention of authorities,â&#x20AC;? Chapin said. He said this practice could potentially save lives, recalling shootings on college campuses such as those at Virginia Tech in 2007 and at Northern Illinois University in 2008. With up to 136 more days for the ISP to make a concealed carry permit application available, University students interested in a license continue their wait. Aleksander Dapkus, president of the Illini on Target registered student organization and a senior in LAS, recently purchased a Glock 19 and said he looks forward to applying for a license. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been wanting to do,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been able to do it in this state.â&#x20AC;? Dapkus said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to be able to obtain a license without an application, but that he understands the practical reasons behind background checks. Because the state is completing these background checks, though, Dapkus said he opposes

in tuition, from $552 million dollars in 2013 to $600 million in 2016, though Wise said she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect tuition to rise significantly. Under the new plan, the number of budget deficits would fall from 113 to 75, and the total deficit would decrease from $93.5 million to $50 million. Students can also expect to see a focus on the online experience of education, and Wise said the strategic plan calls for online learning to become incorporated in a â&#x20AC;&#x153;bigger and better way.â&#x20AC;? A small increase in graduation rate, a larger percentage of undergraduate students having research experiences, higher freshman yield and higher ACT scores for
admission are all among many other vast areas where the University expects to see slight improvement, making all aspects of the University better for students, Wise said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The strategic plan is based on what we can do better for students,â&#x20AC;? she said. Wise said she and Adesida will be involved in the implementation of the strategic plan, but she will also spend time working on expanding the Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s global impact, developing the Champaign-Urbana economy and helping to create a more friendly campus climate.
in late September, Little said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As far as the No More initiative, it is basically a toolkit and logo for local organizations to use as a unifying symbol to increase awareness of domestic violence and sexual assault,â&#x20AC;? Little said. She said the idea is to educate everyone about domestic violence: what it is, what causes it, what hinders it, what helps it and how to prevent it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our ultimate goal is that everyone knows where victims can go to get assistance and that the victim isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to be held responsible for what had
happened to her,â&#x20AC;? Algee said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why we compiled a task force with all these people in our community, to be aware of the resources and to work on the issues that we have identified.â&#x20AC;? No More is a national initiative created in 2009. According to its website, major domestic violence and sexual assault organizations ranging from Men Can Stop Rape to the U.S. Department of Justiceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office on Violence Against Women are behind No More.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;The University of Illinois is a major player in health education nationally,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The rapidly changing nature of health-care delivery in the United States has caused us to reexamine the structure of our operation and the underlying mechanisms for fi nancial sustainability.â&#x20AC;? Healthcare discussions arose during a board retreat in July, and Easter said it will continue to be a topic of conversation among University leaders and faculty members, particularly on the Chicago campus. Easter said he has spent a significant amount of time working with the two major research campuses, Urbana and Chicago, spending at least two days a week on each of the campuses. He said he has also been able to work with the leadership of the Springfield campus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have discovered that we have three unique cultures, each very appropriate to the missions that those campuses have embraced,â&#x20AC;? he said.

the lawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restrictions. He said a person who is legally carrying a concealed weapon will not change as a person after stepping onto a college campus, yet the action is a crime under Illinois law. Maikel Fresco, junior in LAS, also owns a fi rearm and has concealed carry licenses in Utah and Florida. Fresco will be applying for a license when the application is available, and he said the restrictions are offensive. He said the background check process is rigorous, and he has already legally obtained a Firearm Owner Identification card. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the federal government is trusting me to carry a fi rearm around anywhere in the country, why am I not allowed to carry on campus?â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That just doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make any sense whatsoever.â&#x20AC;? Fresco added that he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe everyone should be allowed to own a fi rearm, and that those who are interested should educate themselves on the issue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a powerful defense tool, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only meant for those who are willing to be responsible and practice their right safely,â&#x20AC;? he said. The restrictions are not being disputed legally, but other components of the law are. Mary Shepard and the Illinois State Rifle Association brought legal action against the state of Illinois regarding the constitutionality of the 180-day waiting period for an application to be made available and the 90-day allowance for the ISP to complete a background check. On July 26, a US district court denied the request for immediate injunctive relief, and the plaintiffs fi led a notice of appeal with the 7th US Circuit Court of Appeals on July 29. Unless the court rules in the plaintiffsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; favor, Illinois citizens will have to wait to take advantage of their state-granted right. For Dapkus, this means continuing the wait for self-defense by means of carrying a concealed weapon. He said he hopes that the eventual issuing of permits will yield better results for campus crime. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Instead of (someone) getting an arm broken and a wallet taken, hopefully weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see someone held at gunpoint until the police come and arrest them,â&#x20AC;? he said.

UI provides Welcome Days experience and events for freshman, new students BY NYAJAI ELLISON STAFF WRITER
More than 7,000 students will begin their college careers Wednesday morning at the University. The office of New Student Programs has been working on creating a comprehensive Welcome Days experience for all of the first-year Illini students. Welcome events includes events like Convocation, Sights and Sounds, the Taste of Nevada and Quad Day among many others. Assistant Dean and Director of New Student Programs Abbey Wolfman said the week’s events will act as a guide for incoming students. “The events are designed to help students as they transition to campus and introduce them to the many academic and social opportunities that exist at the University of Illinois,” Wolfman said.
Incoming freshmen are encouraged to pick and choose events based on their interests. After contributing long hours to help create the events, New Student Programs graduate assistant Jordan Glaser, said she is excited to see the new students’ reactions. “Sights and Sounds is a great way to kick off the fall semester with fellow new students while learning about University of Illinois traditions,” Glaser said. This event has been going on for several years and Glaser said this isn’t something the students would want to miss out on. Chris Ragland, an incoming freshman in LAS, said he appreciates how the University welcomes the students. “I feel so energized with the fact that the University welcomes freshmen in this manner,” Ragland said.
Macey Coppinger, an incoming freshman in LAS, said she cannot wait to begin her time at the University. “I’ve always wanted to be a part of a bigger, more diverse and interesting family, and I know that U of I is the perfect place for me to begin that journey,” Coppinger said. She said Welcome Days will help her break the ice with her peers. “I am pretty shy so having plans already made will help me so much,” Coppinger said. “I think it’ll help all of us little freshmen feel more at home.” Northern Illinois University transfer student Tyler Ellis, a junior in AHS, compared the University’s Welcome Days with NIU’s and said they do not have much in common. “As far as U of I, the activities offered during Welcome Days are
great,” Ellis said. “NIU on the other hand, had more parties as their Welcome Days and I feel that they could’ve offered more of a variety of activities that involved the whole campus so everyone would have a chance to meet more people than they are used to.” Ellis said she transferred because she knew it would lead her to a brighter future. Student Coordinator of New Student Programs Rachel Chlebanowski said this is the perfect way to start the year off. “It is the perfect way to start the year here at Illinois — students can really get a grasp as to how diverse and open this campus is and it’s great because it helps students see that no matter who they are, they will fit in here at Illinois,” Chlebanowski said.

Computing power added to supercomputer Blue Waters upgraded with more hardware BY ELEANOR BLACK STAFF WRITER
Blue Waters, the supercomputer housed within the University’s National Center for Supercomputing Applications, is being upgraded with additional hardware that will increase the power and performance of the system. According to a press release, the upgrade adds 12 additional Cray XK racks, each with 96 nodes. This will increase the system’s peak performance to over 13 petaflops, or 13 quadrillion calculations per second, from its previous peak of 11.6 petaflops. Bill Gropp, computer science professor and principal investigator at Blue Waters, said the extra 12 racks lead to an immense amount of power. “Each node is over a teraflop in performance. A teraflop is 1,012 operations per second,” he said. “Those additional 12 racks by themselves represent more computing power than you see in most computing installations.” In computing, the term “FLOPS” (FLoating Operations Per Second) refers to a measure of computing performance. “Your laptop can probably do billions of those calculations per second — maybe 40 billion, may-

be 50 billion, but tens of billions,” said Trish Barker, NCSA spokeswoman. “When you compare that to Blue Waters, we’re not talking about billions anymore, we’re talking about quadrillions ... It’s hugely more powerful than your laptop.” The upgrade came as part of a demand from researchers for more computing power. “One of the things we have seen just in the few short months that Blue Waters was operating prior to the upgrade is that people are really taking a lot of advan-
tage of a particular type of processor called a GPU, or graphics processing unit,” Barker said. “So the new hardware we’ve added brings additional GPUs into the supercomputer, and we think that will really be an asset for the research teams.” Gropp said the upgrade increases the part of the machine that has the GPUs by over 30 percent, thus increasing the total power of the machine by 10 percent. “That means that more people or projects will be able to get their work done in the same amount of
time,” he said. “We’ve also got the ability to do some things that are even larger than what we were looking at before.” The upgrade, which was started in late July, is currently in “friendly user” mode. For the next week, science projects are running on the system to find and address any problems or glitches, Barker said. After this testing period, Blue Waters will be back in full production.

Champaign-Urbana area prepares for biggest Pygmalion festival yet Festival expands by adding lit fest and craft fair BY JULIA MARBACH STAFF WRITER
For the past eight years, Pygmalion Music Festival has brought the Champaign-Urbana and campus community the sound of both national and local musicians of the indie rock variety. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival, to be held on Sept. 26 to 28, will be no different. With 60 artists set to play over the course of three days, the estimated 7,500 to 10,000 festival goers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the most in the festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history â&#x20AC;&#x201D; can expect to encounter many notable names, including The Head & The Heart, The Breeders and Dawes. However, another sound may be wafting from downtown Champaign this year â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and no, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;s not an earthquake. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a beat dropping. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not afraid to experiment with other genres of music,â&#x20AC;? said Seth Fein, Pygmalionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s founder. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Certainly by having emcees (like Rockie Fresh or Dessa) and DJs (like Diplo and Major Lazer) come perform, we feel like thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good crowd appeal there.
But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty adamant that we want to maintain that rock music is pretty front and center.â&#x20AC;&#x153; Stephen Joh nson, local recording artist who has worked with An Evening With Your Mother, Mille Nomi and The Fights, is excited to return to the festival for his third year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to see The Breeders,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think that was a phenomenal addition to the lineup. I love to see these well-seasoned bands that have put in the mileage and have been around for quite some time and know how to play. ... Although, for the most part, this festival has to me become more about seeing the local C-U bands at their peak.â&#x20AC;? Another addition to the festival this year will be a lit fest and craft fair. Pygmalion Lit Fest, to be held on Friday and Saturday, will feature four readings with over a dozen authors that the University department of English is helping to bring in, Fein said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a similar motif (as the Pygmalion Music Festival), itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just authors instead of bands,â&#x20AC;?
Fein said. The craft fair, called â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Made Fest,â&#x20AC;? will be on Saturday and will feature both handmade and vintage sellers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both are 100 percent free, open to the public, for everyone to enjoy,â&#x20AC;? Fein said. Shows will take place at various venues in Champaign-Urbana, including Canopy Club, Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, the Highdive, Exile on Main St. and Cowboy Monkey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like Potty Mouth because of how original they are,â&#x20AC;? said Greg Clow, former student and local promoter/musician. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a cool combination of pop punk and post-punk that can be very accessible.â&#x20AC;? For the first time, there will be two outdoor shows instead of one: a Friday night show in downtown Urbana and the traditional all-day Saturday event in downtown Champaign. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is a great event for the cities of Champaign and Urbana because the festival â&#x20AC;&#x201D; especially with this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impressive lineup â&#x20AC;&#x201D; draws fans from St. Louis, Chicago and

Indianapolis, and surely benefits local tourism,â&#x20AC;? said Joey Gross, junior in Business. Although the festival itself will not provide food, attendees have the chance to try out the various local restaurants, Fein said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got an amazing restaurant scene in Champaign and Urbana, and the idea is that people come into town and maybe go to Black Dog or Farrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s or Big Grove or wher-
ever they wanted. ... Part of that is to inspire business for the local restaurants that exist here,â&#x20AC;? Fein said. While the local restaurants may be taking the reigns when it comes to food, Pygmalionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sponsors, including Goose Island, Budweiser and Jameson, have the alcohol covered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think that our primary directive when I founded the festival in 2005 was to bring as many great, national touring
acts that I could get together to come play a particular weekend in Champaign,â&#x20AC;? Fein said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And then also book as many awesome Champaign-Urbana bands as well, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always been central to the idea of the festival and that is maintained to the day.â&#x20AC;?

ELLNORA to showcase premier international guitar talents Krannert Center for the Performing Arts to host diverse musical talents in 3-day festival BY SAHER KHAN STAFF WRITER
Electric riffs, acoustic melodies and the strumming of a sitar are just some of the diverse sounds that can be heard at the ELLNORA Guitar Festival. Taking place at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts from Sept. 5 to 7, ELLNORA brings together some of the leading and most talented guitar artisans from around the world for a weekend filled with concerts featuring diverse musical talent. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s featured artistin-residence will be the Austin-
X\PJR
based Dobro/steel master and three-time festival alumna Cindy Cashdollar. Her creative virtuosity will be showcased in collaborations with Dan Zanes and Friends, Kevin Breitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sisters Euclid, The Lee Boys and many others throughout the three-day festival. Other notable musicians include Buddy Guy, Luther Dickinson, The Wandering, Andreas Aase â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the list goes on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to provide a global perspective of music,â&#x20AC;? said Bridget Lee-Calfas, advertising and publicity director for Krannert.
LHZ`
Keeping up with the festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s international theme, many of the festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 20-plus performers will be traveling from South Africa, India, Canada, England, Australia, Spain, Croatia and Norway, as well as the United States. Krannert Center Director Mike Ross and his collaborator David Spelman, the founder of the New York Guitar Festival and artistic director of ELLNORA, started the biennial festival in 2005. According to a letter from Spelman on the ELLNORA website, the festival â&#x20AC;&#x153;is a celebra-

tion of music and musicians from around the globe, diverse in technique and sensibility, united in their exploration of a single instrument.â&#x20AC;? Ross said he hopes ELLNORA sends a message across campus and throughout the performing arts communities that Krannert is committed to full cultural and creative diversity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are keeping our doors wide open to people of all walks of life, and ELLNORA is adding uniquely to the vibrancy of the Illinois student experience and of our micro-urban Champaign-
Urbana scene,â&#x20AC;? Ross said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Very few, if any, population centers our size can claim the quality and scope of arts, culture and nightlife we have in this community.â&#x20AC;? Lee-Calfas said that Ross and Spelman both ultimately wanted the festival to serve as a center for people to learn and discover new possibilities with the guitar. The festival will have a mix of formal ticketed performances in theater spaces and free performances located in the amphitheater and lobby of the Krannert Center. There will be a total of 11 free performances at this
yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival. The center has discounted tickets for University students, a standard for all Krannert performances, according to Lee-Calfas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Big names like Buddy Guy and Lucinda Williams are all only for $10, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really a rare opportunity to see artists of that caliber at such an affordable rate,â&#x20AC;? Lee-Calfas said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The opening night party (on Thursday), which has a quadruple lineup including Jonny Lang, is only $5.â&#x20AC;? In addition to the weekend

Urbana to hold 38th annual Sweetcorn fest This weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event features band Kansas, agricultural-related activities BY ADLAI STEVENSON STAFF WRITER
It may be unusual for college students to end their summer with a husk, but not in Urbana. The 38th Annual Urbana Sweetcorn Festival returns Friday and Saturday to showcase live music, local businesses and plenty of sweetcorn. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival begins Friday night from 5 to 11 p.m. and continues 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. throughout Saturday on downtown Urbanaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Main Street. Cynthia Johnson, executive director of the Urbana Business Association sponsoring the festival, said this year will feature Sweetcornâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first-ever â&#x20AC;&#x153;Agzoneâ&#x20AC;? on Friday evening to share agricultural facts and fun. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In addition to a hay bale maze, kids and parents will be able to participate in a large number of agricultural-related activities,â&#x20AC;? she said. According to Johnson, other activities were added to attract visitors of all ages, including childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inflatable areas and the Motor Muster car show for vin-
tage automobile aficionados. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In addition to corn, visitors can also treat themselves to all different types of locally grown food from 30 unique local vendors,â&#x20AC;? Johnson said. Several bands will perform both days, including headliner Kansas, famous for the song â&#x20AC;&#x153;Carry on Wayward Son,â&#x20AC;? at 9:15 p.m. on Saturday evening at the Miller Main Stage. The festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two stages return for 2013, and Johnson said the Miller Main Stage will feature most of the festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s headliners while the One Community Together stage will showcase regional performances. Johnson said the festival always aims for a â&#x20AC;&#x153;culturally diverse line-upâ&#x20AC;? of music performances. In response to Kansasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s act, she stated she is exciting to see them. Admission to the festival is free, and tickets for food and activities will be sold for $1.

Campus tech centers address student needs Illini Union Tech Zone, CITES, Illini Tech Services among Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best technology resources BY SARAH SOENKE ASSISTANT FEATURES EDITOR
Laptops and smartphones can be technological lifesavers, until they stop working. But dealing with hardware or software issues shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worst nightmare. Even though the Illini Tech Center made a quick departure over the summer, several options are still available to meet studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; technology needs on campus. Knowing who to visit, call or email can turn a panic-inducing tech hiccup into an easy fix.

and ask, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;What are you going to require?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? said Dave Zuranski, Illini Union Tech Zone consultant and customer service representative. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our role is to basically understand what the different departments require for the students so we can point them in the right direction.â&#x20AC;? The Tech Zoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s focus encompasses non-schoolwork use as well. As a special feature, the Tech Zone houses a demo room (nicknamed the â&#x20AC;&#x153;360 Roomâ&#x20AC;?) that allows customers to test out tablets, laptops, Apple TV, headphones and other products as if they were in their dorm room or apartment. For repair or software issues, the Tech Zone welcomes walkins and appointments scheduled by phone. Christine Dietrich, assistant director of technology for the Tech Zone, said two of their most important service features are their hardware return time and their extended hours held seven days a week. The Tech Zone tries to work with all student needs, so if a part needs to be ordered, the student can keep the computer until the part arrives. Plus, the Tech Zone uses flat service and repair rates. With a central location, the Tech Zoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s student focus comes full circle as the business benefits the Illini Union. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything we do in there is for the students; if they use their retail dollars in the Tech Zone it will support all student programs,â&#x20AC;? Dietrich said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why go anywhere else?â&#x20AC;?
CITES Help Desk
Room 1211 Digital Computer Lab Another option for students is the CITES Help Desk. The service offers 30-minute consultation periods, either by appointment or walk-in, to address any software concerns or problems free of charge. Popular services include NetID password resets and problems with viruses, email, Internet and software installation and performance. Especially for the fi rst few weeks of the semester, the Help Desk assists students in figuring out programs such as NetLab and Compass. If problems are hardware-related or go beyond the consultationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capabilities, the CITES Help Desk offers on-site consulting that is charged by an hourly $40 fee. CITES can address some hardware issues, but otherwise can reference students to the right service once the problem is determined. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We always want more people to know that the CITES Help Desk is there,â&#x20AC;? said Brian Mertz, chief communications officer for CITES. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not our service, we always make a good effort to try to help people with any problem theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re having. If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s within our capability to solve it, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to solve it for you.â&#x20AC;?

Much Ado About Nothing If you want to impress your English professor this fall, this indie flick might do the trick. As a modern twist on Shakespeareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classic, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Much Ado About Nothingâ&#x20AC;? tracks two couples and their views on love. Whether love will prevail is not always clear, but this timeless classic will have you guessing within the fi rst 10 minutes.
The Bling Ring It might not be Emma Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best role, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly hard to pass up the luxurious lifestyle Oscar-winning fi lmmaker Sofia Coppola

With a stellar cast including James Franco, Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill and Danny McBride, this horror-comedy is exactly what you would expect from directors Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crass, narcissistic and outright outrageous throughout, but you still canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help but laugh as the main characters struggle to make it out alive in Francoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home during an apocalypse. It also features cameos by Michael Cera, Emma Watson and Channing Tatum, to name a few, which adds to the ridiculous nature of the fi lm.

This Is The End

By far, this animated fi lm was my top pick of the summer. Pixar took audiences back in time to revisit how our favorite monsters, Mike and Sully, met at Monsterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University. With Greek system drama, intimidating professors and a bustling campus nightlife, you might catch yourself comparing scenes of the movie to your life at college. If you used to watch and rewatch â&#x20AC;&#x153;Monsterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Inc.â&#x20AC;? 12 years ago, this prequel wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t disappoint.

Monsterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University
Based on the 2006 novel by Max Brooks, Marc Forsterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adaption to the big screen delivers a strong performance by Brad Pitt who plays a former UN employee battling an impending end to all of humanity. For those that enjoy a thriller jam-packed with action, Forsterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fi lm brings in the terrifying moments toward the end. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not typical of a zombie apocalypse fi lm, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good place to start for those that wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t normally sit through one.

Whether you were globe-trotting, fetching a tall nonfat Frappuccino for your employer, or snuggling in bed while battling a Netflix addiction this summer, you may have missed out on some precious time in front of a theater screen with a bag of popcorn at your side. While the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flicks may have left theaters, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no excuse to neglect watching your furry childhood friends and Emma Watson in some of the summerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s featured films. Here are a few movies you might want to consider getting a hold of before schoolwork starts piling up:

In this coming-of-age story featuring Liam James, Toni Collette and Steve Carell, Duncan (James) is an introverted 14-year-old who characterizes every adolescentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s awkward phase. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen this character before, but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make him any less endearing to watch as he endures a summer vacation with his divorced mom (Collette), her new boyfriend (Carell) and annoying sister played by Zoe Levin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Way, Way Backâ&#x20AC;? will make you greatly appreciate surpassing that time in your life when spontaneous human combustion seemed like a great alternative to being 14 years old.
One word: Oprah. Even if you have no interest in American history at all, a movie with Oprah in it is a must-see. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lee Danielsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; The Butlerâ&#x20AC;? is based on the real-life White House butler, Eugene Allen, who serves eight American presidents over the course of 34 years. The fi lm chronicles how the world around him changes during his time at the White House, and it features solid performances from Forest Whitaker, Robin Williams, John Cusack and many more. Poignant and compelling, this fi lm brings an important message to the forefront, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all you could ask for.

Songs of the summer that are still stuck in your head DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
Whether they are from widely anticipated releases or the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blockbuster soundtracks, summer tunes can easily become addictive. Popular artists from Daft Punk to Miley Cyrus quickly dominated our radios and streaming services. Love â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;em or hate â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;em (you probably hate them by now), these songs came to defi ne summer 2013. While it may be too early to be nostalgic, give them another listen as you enjoy the remaining weeks of summer weather and kick off the school year.

performances, there are pre-festival events on Sept. 3 and 4. On Tuesday, Krannert will host “Local Heroes Night” to feature local musicians. The following night, the Art Theater will show a documentary about the Champaign-Urbana music scene called “Out of Nowhere.” Because of the affordability of the festival and the diversity of musical talents, ELLNORA has drawn in several visiting enthusiasts as well as curious students and local residents. Andres Garcia, junior in FAA, has played guitar for seven years and plans on attending the festival. “My style is garage rock, but I am also into Mexican folk guitar playing, like Rodrigo y Gabriela,” Garcia said. “So the idea of a global and diverse take on the guitar sounds like something that makes the festival unique and worth checking out.” Lee-Calfas said that she hopes students will come to discover something special at the festival and take pride in ELLNORA. “It is really a rare opportunity to see so much artistry and such a diverse set under one roof,” Lee-Calfas said. “To see a festival of this caliber without having to drive to another city and to just be able to come and partake in it either for free or very low cost is really something special that sets this festival apart from others.

New coaches, transfer QB reshaping offense BY STEPHEN BOURBON STAFF WRITER
In Tim Beckmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s maiden voyage as head coach of the Illinois football team, the Illini struggled in all three phases en route to a 2-10 finish on the year. After convincing victories early over Western Michigan (24-7) and Charleston Southern (44-0), the Illini had trouble even keeping games close, with nine of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10 defeats coming by 14 or more points. Whether Nathan Scheelhaase or Reilly Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole was under center, the team couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t produce points with any consistency. The Illini ranked 119th out of 120 in both total yards and scoring offense, leading to the dismissal of co-offensive coordinators Chris Beatty as well as the departure of Billy Gonzales, who left the team for a job at Mississippi State. Without taking into account the 44 points the team posted against FCS foe Charleston Southern, the Illini averaged 14.2 points per game in the other 11 contests.
While you were out After the season, a wave of changes swept through the program. In addition to Gonzales
and Beattyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s departures, Illinois lost offensive line coach Luke Butkus to Florida International as well as his intended replacement Jim Bridges, who left for Big Ten foe Purdue in March. Illinois brought in former Western Michigan coach Bill Cubit to become offensive coordinator as well as quarterbacks coach. In addition, the Illini hired A.J. Ricker to coach the offensive line and promoted Mike Bellamy to receivers coach. The biggest splash of the summer for the Illini was a player who wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even see the field in 2013 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the commitment of transfer quarterback Wes Lunt. The 6-foot-5 signal caller was in and out of the starting lineup at pass-happy Oklahoma State with injuries as a true freshman in 2012, but must sit out a year per NCAA transfer rules. Shortly after Luntâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment, Beckman continued his trend of signing players from the junior college ranks when wide receivers Tyrin StoneDavis and Geronimo Allison committed two days apart in late July. Both are considered top-15 junior college receivers by the recruiting website 247sports.
What to watch for The biggest variable heading into the 2013 season is how the Illini will respond under Cubitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offensive system. While at Western Michigan, Cubitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense was 28th in the country in passing yards and 38th in the nation in total offense in 2012 despite a 4-8 record. Cubit is known for spreading the field with receivers and pushing the tempo at times with a quick passing attack. The Illini have five senior wide receivers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the most tenured position group on the team â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and it will be up to them to step up and make plays on the outside. While Scheelhaase has three years of experience and Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole was given multiple opportunities last season, freshman Aaron Bailey stands out as a quarterback who could bring a change of pace to the Illinois offense. Cubit said he has never run a two-quarterback system, but if Scheelhaase struggles, the contingency plan could revolve around the fourstar quarterback from Bolingbrook, Ill.

Illini football still offers meaning, enjoyment even in losing seasons ELIOT SILL Sports editor
A
college football team this devoid of hope is an awkward thing to have. Here on campus you have this giant edifice intended to hold more than 50,000 patrons during a given Saturday, though it often sits half full with many people leaving before the entertainment is fi nished. You have dozens of highly paid professionals (including the highest paid state employee in Illinois) training and orchestrating a group of the Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most athletic individuals with the sole goal of outmatching their opponent.
There are many people employed to operate the various facilities at these events, many people whose job it is to generate publicity and inspire people to come. Some whose job it is to report on what takes place in this curiously large arena. In short, it takes a lot of resources to run a Big Ten football program. When the combined forces of all those resources muster two victories in a 12-game season, well, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s awkward. Say what you want about entering difficult situations, or works in progress, or investing in the future of the program, there is little doubt among popular opinion that this year will be a down year for the Illinois football team. Next year may be better. Five
years down the line we may look back at this season and laugh at how it was thought that the football team was illequipped for success. But now, for the next four months, things are bleak for the Orange and Blue. Last year was a bad year, too. The team had the wind taken out of its sails quite early. Suffering from vamped up expectations and The Dawn of a New Era, the steady plummet to a 2-10 record was made even worse because Illini nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collective morale had much further to fall. So this season will be different, even if the Illini churn out a 2-10 record once more, simply because of the context. And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good thing. Regardless of the general feeling of hopelessness sur-
rounding the upcoming season, the Illini are still going to trot out 12 times â&#x20AC;&#x201D; seven times at Memorial Stadium â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and play as hard as they can to try and win. They will still sweat during their games, especially the hot ones at the beginning of the season, and freeze while on the bench in the later games. Their opponents will still hit them really hard, and they will still try and reciprocate the gestures when appropriate. They will still need ice baths after games, risk injury during them and spend time practicing that could be spent studying. They will still play football in the Big Ten, and experience everything that comes with that, whether glory is attainable or not.
It will still be Nathan Scheelhaaseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior season, his last chance to shine on the Big Ten stage. It will still be perhaps Reilly Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Tooleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last chance to prove himself as a viable option to play quarterback anywhere should he decide to transfer, let alone at Illinois. Many players will be looking to establish themselves on the team â&#x20AC;&#x201D; at running back and in the secondary especially. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still much to prove, much to gain and much to lose â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even more than games. Whether you fi nd Illinois football to be worth your while, it will forge on. The University will continue to compile its resources into creating the best experience possible. The players will continue to fight, and fi nd joy in
success and agony in failure. They will not have time to waste feeling awkward about the program they represent, because the season will still be there, even if the wins are not. The old saying goes: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why they play the games.â&#x20AC;? This year, even should winning not be the reason why, there will be something. There will be meaning to be taken from this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Illinois football campaign. The fantastically interesting task will be for those involved â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the players, the coaches, the stadium security workers, the reporters, the fans â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to fi nd it.

Fresh start for Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball Groce heads into his 2nd year with promising roster BY JOHNATHAN HETTINGER STAFF WRITER
The menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball rebuild is in full swing this season. Since taking over in March 2012, head coach John Groce has added 11 new players to the Illinois menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball team, which returns just three scholarship players from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s squad. A flurry of new faces, including four transfers and five freshmen, may require some time to mesh in Groceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second season. After exceeding expectations in his first year as head coach, it would make sense for the newlook team to take a step back, but Groce may have put Illinois in a place to compete with two returning starters, the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sixth man, and three transfer players ready to contribute. Last year, the Illini started off hot, beginning the season 12-0 and winning the Maui Invitational behind the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best 3-point shooting. Once the long balls stopped dropping, Illinois hit a rough spot, starting Big Ten play 2-7, including a loss to a mediocre Purdue team and a home blowout loss to a hobbled Northwestern squad. The Illiniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s season turned around in 0.7 seconds, when Tyler Griffeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last-second layup to beat No. 1 Indiana jumpstarted the Illini, who finished conference play 6-3, and earned a No. 7 seed in the NCAA Tournament, defeating Colorado before falling to No. 2-seed Miami in a tight game. The senior-heavy team relied greatly on Brandon Paul, D.J. Richardson, Tyler Griffey and Sam McLaurin, and three-point shooting, two large differences in this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s squad.
While you were out In addition to losing the seniors, four Illini transferred to different schools, meaning that the only returning scholarship players are senior Joseph Bertrand and juniors Tracy Abrams and Nnanna Egwu. With the huge turnover, the Illini added five new freshmen (Malcolm Hill, Kendrick Nunn, Maverick Morgan, Austin Colbert and Jaylon Tate) and four new transfers (John Ekey,
Ahmad Starks, Aaron Cosby and Darius Paul), in addition to Rayvonte Rice, who transferred in 2012 and sat out last season. Of the transfers, Ekey, a fifthyear senior and graduate student, will be eligible to play immediately. Senior Ahmad Starks has a pending waiver, so he would not have to sit out a year. Starks, who played at Oregon State for the past three seasons, transferred closer to his hometown of Chicago because of an ailing grandmother. Paul and Cosby will not be eligible until 2014-2015.
What to watch for If Ahmad Starks gets his waiver, he could improve Illinois hopes heading into the season. Starks averaged 10.4 points per game behind 40 percent 3-point shooting at Oregon State, and the 5-foot-9 point guard could be relied on for a team with a lack of long-range shooters. Champaign native Rayvonte Rice transferred to Illinois after playing two seasons at Drake University. The big-bodied guard averaged 16.8 points per game for the Bulldogs during his sophomore season, and he had an entire season to become familiar with Groceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s system and trim down his weight. Riceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to score may come in handy for an Illini team with no proven scorers. Keep an eye out for the future of the program. John Groce has added 11 players since taking over in March 2012, and he seems to have the Illini competing for commitments from some of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top seniors. Illinois has plans to have three top recruits, five-star center Cliff Alexander, four-star power forward Leron Black and four-star point guard Quentin Snider, on campus this fall.

Shuffling of players in and out of menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball WHOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S OUT MYKE HENRY
D.J. RICHARDSON
TYLER GRIFFEY
SAM MCLAURIN
Henry transferred to DePaul following the season. Henry had a knack for rebounding and shooting 3-pointers and likely would have started at power forward this season.
Richardson was a staple in Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; backcourt for four seasons and was used primarily as a long-range shooter and lockdown defender.
Griffeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s layup to topple No. 1 Indiana will go down in Illini history. His departure to play in Austria leaves a hole for the Illini at power forward.
McLaurinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presence in the post helped Illinois keep up with larger Big Ten teams, and he taught Egwu how to play post. Illinois will miss his size and strength down low.
BRANDON PAUL
IBBY DJIMDE
MIKE SHAW
DEVIN LANGFORD
Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; leading scorer in 2012-13 played on the Minnesota Timberwolves summer league and will be playing professionally in Russia this season.
Djimde transferred to Southern Illinois University. He struggled to find a place and was the last man on the bench for the Illini the past two seasons.
Shaw transferred to Bradley University after recording just 50 minutes last season.
Langford, an extremely athletic forward, had trouble developing his basketball skills and transferred to Division II Kentucky Wesleyan.
WHOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S IN RAYVONTE RICE
JON EKEY
AARON COSBY
KENDRICK NUNN
Rice sat out for the Illini last season, but appears to be ready to contribute this season. Rice averaged 16.8 points per game for Drake as a sophomore.
Ekey, a 6-foot-7 forward, may start at the four this season. He averaged 6.4 points per game on 35 percent 3-point shooting for Illinois State last season in a reserve role.
Cosby averaged 12.6 points per game and hit 40 percent of his 3-pointers for Seton Hall last season. The 6-foot2 guard will provide a proven outside presence for Groceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s squad in 2014-15.
Nunn continued the Chicago Simeon pipeline to Illinois and will wear the No. 25 jersey of Benji Wilson, the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top high school player who was murdered in 1984. Nunn was one of Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; top recruits last season.
AHMAD STARKS
MALCOLM HILL
MAVERICK MORGAN
The 5-foot-9 point guard may fill two of Groceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest needs: 3-point shooting and scoring. Starks, who averaged 10.4 ppg on 39.5 percent 3-point shooting for Oregon State last season, has a waiver pending that would allow him to play for the Illini this season.
Hill is an athletic 6-foot6 shooting guard from Bellevile, Ill., who was ranked as one of Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; top recruits last season.
Morgan was the center for the freshman class and, at 6-foot-10, will likely be Egwuâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backup this season.
AUSTIN COLBERT
JAYLON TATE
Groce loves point guards, and Tate may be the next in line. Tate was a high school teammate of Nunn and Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jabari Parker and was a late addition to the class.
As a power forward, Colbert provides depth at a weak position. He is an athletic 6-foot-9 forward with a decent midrange shot.
DARIUS PAUL Illinois wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be without a Paul for long. Brandonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother is a different player, a 6-foot-8 forward, who was the MAC Freshman of the Year for Western Michigan last season averaging 10.4 points and 5.7 rebounds per game.

Hockey starts with high expectations in 2013-14 Fabbrini disappointed with last year’s early end BY SEAN NEUMANN STAFF WRITER
Travel the world without leaving your table. CHAMPAIGN 6th & Green
Nick Fabbrini wants more. Last season, the Illini head coach led the hockey team to a 26-12-2 record in his fi rst season behind the bench and captured the CSCHL conference championship, while Illinois found itself just a few wins away from an ACHA National Championship appearance. But it was how the season ended that left a bitter taste in the coach’s mouth. Despite the success of his inaugural season, Fabbrini said he was frustrated with the Illini’s quarterfi nal exit from the ACHA National Tournament. “I’m expecting us to build on last year,” Fabbrini said. “The end of the year was a little bit disappointing, but I think we’re going to be a lot deeper this year and our guys that are coming back are going to be hungry.”

Over the summer, Fabbrini continued to change things up by adding assistant coach Blake Sorensen to his staff and in July, the team revealed new jerseys for the 2013-14 season, featuring a classic look modeled off the Boston Bruins’ logo. The Illini last switched their sweaters in 2010. But senior Matt Welch’s jersey will look different in another way. The forward was appointed the third captain slot this offseason, after netting 11 goals and 12 assists last year, and will have the honor of wearing an “A” on his sweater this season.
What to watch for Sophomore John Olen is coming off a breakout freshman year in which he led the team in goals (25) and points (48). The 2013-14 season should see the forward’s hot streak continue, while teams across the ACHA try and figure out how to stop the sophomore’s offensive production, especially on the power play, where he scored 11 of his 25 goals. While Olen injects a youthful punch to the Illinois lineup, the Illini are very much a veteran team with eight returning seniors. Captain Austin Bostock will look to leave a lasting mark on the Illinois hockey program entering his senior year after scoring 18 goals and 21 assists in the 2012-13 season, sitting second in points (39) only behind Olen. Illinois’ 2013-14 schedule is packed with memorable matchups, including a two-game series in Chicago at Johnny’s IceHouse — the practice facility for the 2013 Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks. It’s fitting
that Illinois’ most anticipated series of the year will come with the opportunity for revenge against Arizona State, the team who sent the Illini home early in last year’s ACHA quarterfi nals. Fabbrini said he is most looking forward to the Arizona State series and Alumni Weekend, when the Illini host reigning national champion, Minot State. “It will be exciting,” Fabbrini said. “Getting to play them on home ice is a great opportunity for us.” Just two weeks later, conference rival Lindenwood will visit Champaign to take on the Illini and there is sure to be a lot of fight in both teams when they take the ice. With a brutal history between the two, physical play will be expected. In a single game last season, eight players were ejected for fi ghting and four Illini were suspended for a total of fi ve games. As defend i ng CSCHL conference champions, the Illini face high expectations heading into 2013-14. With a veteran roster, led by eight returning seniors including Bostock, second team All-American goaltender Nick Clarke, and fi rst team All-CSCHL defenseman Mike Evans, Illinois is not only poised to retain the conference title, but is considered to be a serious contender for the ACHA National Championship. But winning back-to-back championships in arguably the toughest conference in the ACHA will be harder than it sounds. Having fi ve CSCHL teams in the top-ten of the national rankings last year provides a tough road for the Illini, but Fabbrini said it also makes for some entertaining regular season match-ups. “All the CSCHL teams are always great games,” Fabbrini said. “They’re exciting and generally really physical.” Fabbrini said the tough competition plays into the high-level of intensity that each conference game brings. “ T here’s long- st a nd i ng rivalries between us and the other CSCHL schools,” Fabbrini said. “Obviously, all the schools in our league respect each other, because they’ve all had a lot of success in our level, but I don’t think that any of the schools really like each other very much, so that makes it a lot of fun.” Last year, two CSCHL teams advanced to the ACHA Final Four (Lindenwood and Ohio), but this season it’s Fabbrini’s goal to not only be one of them, but to win it all.

Beltran key to volleyballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return to NCAA tourney What to watch for
BY NICHOLAS FORTIN STAFF WRITER
Two years ago the Illinois volleyball team came within a game of winning an NCAA title. Last year the Illini had what senior libero Jennifer Beltran called a â&#x20AC;&#x153;toughâ&#x20AC;? season, falling short of an NCAA tournament berth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a really emotional rollercoaster,â&#x20AC;? Beltran said. The Illini, tasked with following the most successful season in program history, played well throughout the season, but eventually youth and one of the toughest schedules in the nation proved to be too much for the team to overcome. Illinois finished the year 14-16 overall (8-12 conference) and missed the NCAA tournament.
While you were out
BRENTON TSE THE DAILY ILLINI
Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; libero Jennifer Beltran attempts to dig the ball during the Illiniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 3-1 win over Indiana at Huff Hall, on Oct. 3.
While most of the Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s student population was enjoying summer, the Illini were playing world-class competition in a 10-day trip to Italy. Illinois was able to play challenging competition, including the Italian National Team, and bond in its time out of the country. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to come together as a team,â&#x20AC;? head coach Kevin Hambly said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to play great competition and test the things we were working on. I think we got all of that out of it.â&#x20AC;? The Illini finished their time in Italy 3-2 before coming home where the team wrapped up the summer with two preseason all Big Ten selections in sophomore outside hitter Jocelynn Birks and junior outside hitter Liz McMahon.
Three major components to the Illiniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success this year will be the play of Beltran and how the team fares in both the nonconference and conference portions of its schedule. Beltran, who is currently second in school history and 13th in Big Ten history in digs, says she has been working on expanding her range on the court and her role as a leader on the team, and both will come in handy this season. In order to succeed, Illinois will have to be on its A-game from the get-go, as it faces five ranked teams, including No. 1 Texas and No. 5 Washington in the first three weeks of the year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to play great competition, so I schedule tough every single year,â&#x20AC;? Hambly said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really have an off match, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing a ton of ranked teams, whatever that means, and a ton of really good teams.â&#x20AC;? Once the Illini get into their conference schedule, the season wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get any easier, as the team will play seven more top-25 schools in conference including No. 2 Penn State on Oct. 18 at Huff hall and No. 6 Minnesota to end the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The (Big Ten) is the best league as far as top to bottom,â&#x20AC;? Hambly said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Night in night out, you have to bring it because anyone could beat anybody. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably nine teams, maybe 10, that could make the tournament this year.â&#x20AC;?

DiBernardo, Breece lead experienced Illini soccer team BY ALEX ORTIZ STAFF WRITER
Last year, the Illinois soccer team continued to prove itself as a perennial Big Ten contender. The team finished the 2012 season with a record of 10-9-4, appeared in the Big Ten championship game and lost in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited to test this team,â&#x20AC;? 12th-year head coach Janet Rayfield said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good team that we have high expectations for.â&#x20AC;? With Illinois ranking third in the Big Ten Preseason Coachesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Poll, players like standout senior Vanessa DiBernardo wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be sneaking up on anyone this year. DiBernardo, a 2012 NSCAA Third Team All-American midfielder, led the team with eight goals and was second in assists with five. Senior forward Megan Pawloski tallied a team-high six assists. Sophomore forward Nicole Breece was a pleasant surprise with four goals and three assists. Senior defender Kassidy Brown, DiBernardo and Breece were also named Big Ten Players to Watch. Goalkeeper Steph Panozzoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2,164 minutes in goal carried the team last year as she saved nearly three quarters of shots against her. With Panozzo graduating last spring, Rayfield has yet to name a starting goalkeeper. There has been a solid competition brew-
ing for the position, though. With three keepers on the roster, Rayfield said that junior Lizzie Sanscrainte and freshman Claire Wheatley have been the most consistent and are the frontrunners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it may be a couple games into the season before we know (the starter) for sure,â&#x20AC;? Rayfield said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be keeper by committee but ... it could be a possibility that we split time these first couple games.â&#x20AC;?
While you were out During the offseason, the team added seven players including Wheatley and defender Casey Conine, who enrolled early. Rayfield also secured her job until at least 2017 with a new deal signed in July. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What it meant to me was that (athletic director) Mike (Thomas) and this administration and myself are making a consensual commitment to this program,â&#x20AC;? Rayfield said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To build a great program takes consistency.â&#x20AC;? When the squad returned to practice earlier this month, they were at full strength, unlike the previous offseason when both Rayfield and DiBernardo were on international duty. DiBernardo did help the U.S. Under-23 Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Team win the Four Nations Tournament over the spring.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to be here with the team in the beginning of preseason,â&#x20AC;? DiBernardo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot different when you have to go (play abroad) and come back.â&#x20AC;? During that time, Illinois went 2-1-1 in its spring season exhibition games. Illinois also lost 3-0 against eighth-ranked Virginia in a preseason friendly on Aug. 16.
What to watch for Illinois will be playing a competitive 2013 schedule, which includes four opponents that finished in the NCAA Top 25. Just its Big Ten schedule alone will pose a challenge, with Penn State and Michigan ranking first and second in the Big Ten Preseason Coachesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Poll. It will also be a tough first stretch with four games in 10 days to start the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to test our endurance, our fitness and everything,â&#x20AC;? Breece said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get us ready for the season because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to go.â&#x20AC;? Rayfield doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like to pay too much attention to polls but would rather focus on one game at a time with definite long-term goals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Certainly I think this team is motivated,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This team is motivated to be in a good position when they host this Big Ten Tournament. This team is moti-

Pietersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; departure leaves hole in menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golf roster BY JOHNATHAN HETTINGER STAFF WRITER
Northern golf teams arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t supposed to be able to compete with southern and western teams. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the common logic in collegiate golf. In colder places, like Champaign, Ill., you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play golf year-round like you can in Southern California or Florida. Because of this, northern teams are limited to playing inside for months of the year and must travel to unfamiliar places in order to participate in competitions. But, under head coach Mike Small, Illinois is dissolving that
theory. The Illini have not only won five straight Big Ten Championships, but are one of six schools (UCLA, Florida, Texas, Texas A&M, and USC) to make it to six straight NCAA Championships. The NCAA Individual Champions in 2010 and 2012, Scott Langley and Thomas Pieters respectively, were both Illini. Last season, the Illinois menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golf team went farther than ever before. On the way to a NCAA Championship match appearance with Alabama, the Illini defeated defending national champion Texas in the NCAA quarterfinals and No. 1 California, who many called â&#x20AC;&#x153;the best col-
lege golf team ever,â&#x20AC;? in the semifinals. The national runner-up finish was the best for the Illini in school history, and two individuals, junior Thomas Pieters and freshman Charlie Danielson, earned PING All-American honors. The Illini also won their fifth straight Big Ten Championship and had the top two finishers in the conference in Big Ten Champion Pieters and runnerup Brian Campbell. Illinois followed that with its first-ever NCAA Regional title on its way to its sixth straight NCAA Championship appearance.
While you were out
What to watch for
2011 National Champion and 2012 Big Ten Champion Pieters left the Illini a year early to play professional golf. Despite declaring his intention to go pro in January, Small was unable to find a replacement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We thought Thomas would be back. When he told us, it was too late to recruit any quality players,â&#x20AC;? Small said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not going to recruit just anyone.â&#x20AC;? Small also had some success of his own this summer, playing in three golf tournaments, including the PGA Championship.
Illinois returns four of its five contributors from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national runner-up squad, so someone will have to step up and fill Pietersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; shoes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to replace guy like Thomas, a national champion and two-time All-American, and you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have one guy replace a guy like Thomas,â&#x20AC;? Small said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to do it by committee, and get stronger as a team. Everyone has to get a little better.â&#x20AC;? Look for sophomore David Kim, who was in the top five for much of last season, or senior Jonathan Hauter, who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t played much in his first three
years, to step up. Illinois has had an individual win the Big Ten Championship in each of the past three seasons. If that trend continues, it would likely be because of junior Brian Campbell, who finished second in the conference last season, or sophomore Charlie Danielson, a returning All-American. When he started playing golf professionally, Pieters joined four former Illini in the professional ranks. Steve Stricker, Luke Guthrie, Scott Langley and D.A. Points all play on the PGA Tour, and Pieters will likely join them soon.

Dancer has high expectations for menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tennis despite youth BY DAN ESCALONA STAFF WRITER
The Illinois menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tennis team remains one of the youngest in the Big Ten and the nation as a whole. After the graduation of senior standouts Stephen Hoh and Bruno Abdelnour, the squad is comprised entirely of sophomores and juniors. But despite the lack of senior leadership, the team expects to win the Big Ten title and a return to the top 10 of the national rankings this season.
While you were out â&#x20AC;&#x153;The key for us will be to see how our guys mature throughout the season,â&#x20AC;? head coach Brad Dancer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We still have a very young team, and the maturation process that they all go through will go a long way in measuring how well we match our expectations.â&#x20AC;? The Illini ended last season with a second-round exit in the NCAA tournament after losing to Vanderbilt. Though the team qualified for its 18th consecutive NCAA berth, the Illini were unable to participate in the national championships held on campus. The team was unable to repeat as Big Ten champions . â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were obviously disappointed with how we ended last season, given that we expected to advance deeper in the NCAAs,â&#x20AC;? Dancer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a team, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re extremely moti-
vated to achieve our lofty goals to be one of the top teams in the country again.â&#x20AC;?
What to watch for The top returning individual for the Illini is sophomore Jared Hiltzik â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the 2012-13 Big Ten Newcomer of the Year. He defeated four top-25 players last season and made it to the round of 32 of the NCAA tournament. Hiltzik, a top national recruit in 2012, will be expected to shoulder a bigger load of the leadership on a team lacking experienced seniors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jared is a unique individual in that he is very driven, very focused,â&#x20AC;? Dancer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He still needs to grow and become more of a leader for us. Once he is comfortable in that role, he will be a great leader for our team over the next three years and hopefully that will begin this season.â&#x20AC;? In doubles, the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top duo of juniors Ross Guignon and Tim Kopinski is back. The duo had a 12-3 record together, including a win over No. 2-ranked duo of Jarmere Jenkins and Mac Styslinger from Virginia â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to whom they would lose in the NCAA Doubles Championships. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Achillesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; heel for Ross and Tim in doubles has always been their serving, and if they can develop a more consistent serve they will be very successful for us,â&#x20AC;? Dancer said. Ohio State remains the toughest conference rival for the Illini. The team had some triumphs
over the Buckeyes, as evidenced by Hiltzikâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s victory over eventual NCAA individual champion Blaz Rola. Though the Illini lost 4-3 to Ohio State in the regular season, the doubles tandem of Guignon and Kopinski managed to defeat the Buckeye tandem of Peter Kobelt and Connor Smith. The Illini would again face the Buckeyes in a rematch in the Big Ten Tournament semifinals only to be denied a chance to defend their conference crown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been Illinois and Ohio State for 20 years,â&#x20AC;? Dancer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had our number over the last five to seven years, and we have to change that.â&#x20AC;? One of the most important factors that Dancer and the Illini are looking to focus on is the consistency of the entire team, not just Hiltzik and Kopinski. Given that the team has no incoming freshmen this season, there will be increased pressure on the full roster. Dancer expects to see continued growth and progress from individuals such as sophomores Alex Jesse and Brian Page. Dancer also hopes to see the health of Guignon improve and have him out on the court more consistently. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The physical nature of the season, especially during the Big Ten season, will be a huge test for us,â&#x20AC;? Dancer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to be able to deal with that better if we are going to match the high expectations we have set for us as a team.â&#x20AC;?

Fall play key to spring success for women’s tennis BY ALEX ROUX STAFF WRITER
The Illinois women’s tennis team finished the 2012-13 with a 14-11 overall record, including a 6-5 Big Ten mark. Despite missing the NCAA tournament, the Illini’s season still certainly had bright spots. Senior Rachael White and sophomore Melissa Kopinski qualified for the NCAA tournament with an at-large bid as a doubles tandem. The Kopinski and White duo racked up 12 doubles wins in the 2012 fall season and qualified for the USTA/ ITA Indoor Intercollegiate Championships. They carried their momentum into the spring, where White and Kopinski reached the quarterfinals of the NCAA tournament before falling to the Southern California tandem of Kaitlyn Christian and Sabrina Santamaria. The tournament run earned White and Kopinski a No. 15 national ranking to finish the season with an overall doubles record of 28-13. “I think their tournament run was the highlight of our year,” head coach Michelle Dasso said. The Illini earned some major individual honors as well. For their doubles efforts, White and Kopinski were named NCAA All-Americans. Junior Allison Falkin earned first-team All-Big Ten honors.
While you were out After failing to qualify as a team for the NCAA tournament hosted at Illinois, the team focused on preparing for the upcoming individual tournaments in the fall. “They played in a couple of tournaments, took care of their bodies, and con-
tinued to train,” Dasso said of the team’s summer activities. With the departure of White and fellow senior Breanne Smutko, Dasso brought in a recruiting class of three freshmen to help compensate for the loss. Louise Kwong, Jerricka Boone and Alexis Casati will join the Illini in the fall. “We’ll see how the freshmen adjust,” Dasso said. “I think we have very good leadership on our team across the board.” The team will also look for leadership from upcoming senior class of Falkin and Misia Kedzierski.
What to watch for The fall season will feature several individual tournaments that will help the players gear up for team play in the spring. The Illini will open the fall season on Sept. 27 in West Point, N.Y., at the West Point Invitational, where Kopinski and Falkin will look to stay atop the team’s lineup. Dasso said she is eager to get off to a strong start in the nonconference and Big Ten in order to be in good standings when the spring season rolls around. “We kick off hard,” Dasso said. “Once it starts in January, it doesn’t stop.” For the spring season, Dasso is hopeful that lessons learned from last season will help guide her team toward a berth in the NCAA Championships. “(Missing the tournament) was definitely a motivating factor for us,” Dasso said. ‘We’re not going to take anyone lightly and we don’t want to be in that situation again.”

Ron Garner takes over depleted women’s track and field team BY J.J. WILSON ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
The Illinois women’s track and field team looks nothing like it did last year. After taking 14th overall in the NCAA Championships and earning nine All-American honors, the Illini were looking set for the 2013-14 season. Ashley Spencer had just turned out a tremendous season, recording her best time in the 400-meter dash at 50.28 seconds at nationals — a time good for a new school record, fourth best in NCAA history and fifth-best in the world this year. Spencer was then joined by teammates Marissa Golliday, Ahlivia Spencer and Morolake Akinosun to break the school
record in the 1600-meter relay at 3 minutes, 29.28 seconds, a record they had already broken three times earlier in the season.
While you were out Over the summer, the Illini lost their head coach and two of their top sprinters — all to Texas athletics. A little more than a month after head coach Tonja BufordBailey left Illinois, she was joined by the star duo of junior Ashley Spencer and sophomore Morolake Akinosun. Not only had Illinois lost 10 years of experience in BufordBailey’s departure, but it would no longer have two of its stron-
gest weapons on the track. In addition to their performances at nationals, the duo also competed in the USA Track and Field Senior and Junior Championships, where Spencer went on to represent Team USA at the world championships and Akinsosun at the Pan American Junior Championships in Medellin. The summer wasn’t entirely filled with loss, though. On Aug. 2, Ron Garner was announced as the new women’s head track and field coach, joining with over 25 years of coaching experience. Garner has six years of history with the Illinois program, contributing to six Big Ten Conference titles and two consecutive
fourth-place finishes in the NCAA championships in 1995 and 1996. Garner has assisted in the development of several standout athletes, such as Olympic Gold Medalist Kim Graham-Miller and Olympic Bronze Medalist and former Illini coach Tonja Buford-Bailey. On Aug. 5, Garner added some familiarity to his staff by hiring Graham-Miller as the women’s assistant track and field coach. “She and I go back many years,” Garner said of Graham-Miller in a press release. “Kim was an outstanding Olympian and has carried that level of success over to her coaching. She is a rising star in this business.”
Distance runners won’t be left out in the cold, either, with former Illini assistant Scott Jones returning as head cross country coach after 17 years at Akron. Jones aided Garner in accomplishing three of the Big Ten titles from 1994-96 as well as the consecutive fourth-place finishes in the NCAAs.
What to watch for Last season, Stephanie Richartz claimed the conference title for pole vaulting with a vault of 4.30 meters, which was also good for the school record. With Richartz returning for her senior year, it can only be expected that she will lead the fielding squad by
example once more. On the distance end of the things, Alyssa Schneider will return as well after finishing up with all-region honors last season as a redshirt freshman. Collectively, the Illini broke 15 school records, claimed a Big Ten indoor title and delivered all-around best performances in both the indoor and outdoor NCAA Championships. While it’s a fact that the Illini have lost some pieces and undergone reconstruction, the past may serve as a good indicator that the lost trio wasn’t the only thing keeping the team strong.
