UI programs try to bring together all religions, ethnicities Vice chancellor wants students to find success in diverse world BY LAUREN ROHR STAFF WRITER ROCHELLE WILSON THE DAILY ILLINI

Jason Huang, right, a sophomore in AHS, talks to a girl at the Cans Across the Quad food drive at the Union on Tuesday. The food drive aims to support the Eastern Illinois Foodbank and help with food insecurity in Champaign County.

ONE CAN AT A TIME

Food drive hopes to help with hunger, food insecurity in Champaign County BY CLAIRE EVERETT STAFF WRITER

In order to combat hunger in Champaign County, the Office of Volunteer Programs held its fifth annual Cans Across on the Quad event Tuesday. The fundraiser, which was moved to the Courtyard Cafe because of rain, benefitted the Eastern Illinois Foodbank. From there, the donations are distributed to surrounding food pantries, said Vaneitta Goines, pro-

gram advisor for the Office of Volunteer Programs. The group was about 200 cans away from reaching its goal of 2,500 donated cans at about 5 p.m. Tuesday. Although the number of people in Champaign County who earn salaries over $100,000 has increased 90 percent over the last 10 years, the county still has the third highest extreme poverty rate in Illinois, according to the United Way of Cham-

Illinois Student Senate may sponsor basketball team, give out free tickets BY CORINNE RUFF STAFF WRITER

Although many members of the Illinois Student Senate know not all students are into politics or University policy, senator Damani Bolden thinks they should be and wants to help students relate to the Illinois Student Senate in a more personal way — through men’s basketball. The junior in ACES wrote a resolution proposing that the senate would increase its campus visibility by becoming a sponsor of the University’s men’s basketball team. “Some students don’t know who we are or even that our school has a student senate,” he said. “Here’s an opportunity, from students to students, on a level they can fully understand, to let them know we’re here.” Bolden is working with Fighting Illini Sports Property, which oversees all athletics sponsorships, to put this plan into place. “They are eager to work with

ISS and figure out what we can do while staying in the constraints of our budget,” he said. The overall budget for this marketing effort would be $11,400. The proposal includes four 15-second videos promoting ISS that will be aired before every basketball game this season. In addition, when students look up the basketball schedule online, there will be a link to the student senate’s website. The resolution also calls for ISS to purchase and distribute 200 tickets to games. “We’d like to engage the students on the Quad with a quick game or something and give them free tickets to the game,” Bolden said. “One thing we should always do is support our student-athletes.” The initiative is on the senate’s agenda for its regular meeting Wednesday. Also on the agenda for Wednesday is a plan to for ISS

paign County’s 2011 Community Report. Goines said high-paying University and corporate jobs are creating a greater divide between high- and low-income groups. “Those jobs that allow people with a lower educational level to work for a living wage are starting to disappear from our economy and not be replaced in the same level,” she said. “More people at the lower end of the economic spectrum are moving toward extreme poverty, and many of those are families with children.” In Champaign County, an esti-

mated 24.9 percent of the population for whom poverty status is determined is below poverty level, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2011 American Community Survey. Goines said north Champaign is one of the areas that is hit with a “food desert,” which is when people do not have grocery stores within a mile of their homes. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s defi nition of food insecurity is a “limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate and safe foods or limited or

In an effort to bring together students of all races, ethnicities and religions, University units and organizations have been working to implement campuswide programs that celebrate diversity. Renee Romano, vice chancellor for student affairs, said these programs are also a way for students to prepare themselves for working in diverse environments throughout their lives. “I want our students to really be able to be successful in the multicultural, diverse world they’re going to fi nd when they graduate,” Romano said. One of the campus’s newest diversity programs is the Academic Talent Search College Prep program, funded by the U.S. Department of Education. Romano said the University’s Office of Minority Student Affairs implemented this program to encourage middle school and high school students with disadvantaged backgrounds to attend college.

This program is directed especially toward students who are the first in their families to go to college. “If your parents didn’t go to college and you’re a first-generation college student, that means your parents may not know all the ins and outs about applying and getting fi nancial aid and helping you get into college,” Romano said. Readying Illinois Students for Excellence is a new program that allows support to continue after a fi rst-generation, low-income student has been accepted to the University.

Rajmohan Gandhi, center, discusses the 1857 Revolt in India with Sanjeva Reddy, left, and A.T. Saravanan before speaking at Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa, on Friday. Grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, Rajmohan Gandhi is an author and professor at the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign. An active peacekeeper, Rajmohan Gandhi led the Indian delegation to the U.N. Human Rights Commission in Geneva in 1990.

Students may notice an unusual silence on Wednesday while walking across the Quad. The bells of Altgeld Hall, which usually ring 10 minutes to the hour and at the hour to signify passing periods, will not ring all day in support of Silent Day and International Week of the Deaf. Silent Day is sponsored by the department of speech and hearing Science. “When people realize the bells aren’t (ringing), that will be an accomplishment in itself,” said Matthew Dye, assistant professor of speech and hearing science. Dye said the chiming of the bells is something that most people take for granted, and the goal of the silencing of the bells is to catch the attention of students and faculty. As part Wednesday’s event, students will also seek sponsorship to remain silent, using only sign language, gesture and writing from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. The event aims to help students attain a sense of what daily life is like for people in the deaf community. It will also serve as a fundraiser for the Illini Chapter of the Illinois Association of the Deaf and for the Illinois Foundation for

Obama: Time to end Assad’s regime in Syria BY BRADLEY KLAPPER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — The United States and the U.N.’s new Syria mediator grappled for a new strategy Tuesday toward stopping 18 months of brutal government crackdowns and civil war in the Arab country as President Barack Obama again called for the end of President Bashar Assad’s regime. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and Lakhdar Brahimi spoke for an hour on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly, according to a senior U.S. official, charting paths that might help unite Syria’s opposition and engineer a peaceful transition away from the fourdecade Assad regime. Their talks came just hours after Obama told world leaders that Assad must leave “so that the suffering of the Syrian people can stop and a new dawn can begin.” “In Syria, the future must not belong to a dictator who massacres his people,” Obama said. “If there is a cause that cries out for protest in the world today, it is a regime that tortures children and shoots rockets at apartment buildings.” It has been more than a year

since Obama fi rst called for Assad to step down, but the violence has only swelled since. That has put his administration somewhat on the defensive as it seeks ways short of military intervention or arming Syria’s still little-known rebel forces to pressure the Syrian government into a peaceful political transition. U.S. officials say both those options would only worsen the crisis. But all diplomatic efforts so far have failed, and Brahimi’s discussions with Clinton confi rmed that neither the U.S. nor the global body has a clear plan at the moment for how to bring change to Syria. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon also demanded international action to stop Syria’s war, including stopping “flows of arms to both sides.” Brahimi, a veteran Algerian diplomat who previously mediated in Afghanistan and Iraq, entered Syria’s complicated diplomatic landscape earlier this month when he replaced Kofi Annan. Until recently, the United Nations and the Obama administration had stuck to a strategy outlined by Annan in June that would have seen Assad’s govern-

ment and Syria’s opposition pick members of a to-be-established interim government, with each side able to veto candidates they oppose. The plan was endorsed by the U.S. and Russia, U.N. Security Council rivals who’ve clashed repeatedly on how best to end the confl ict. But it never got off the ground as violence only picked up through the summer and Moscow blocked a U.S.-backed resolution that would have created global consequences for inaction by the Syrian government. A frustrated Annan then announced he’d resign. With diplomacy still at a standstill, the U.S. official described Brahimi outlining how he has inherited Annan’s job but not his plan. He may maintain some elements of it, but at the moment the United Nations has no clear road map for ending the war. Brahimi told Clinton he would take his time in developing a workable strategy, expressing little hope that diplomatic efforts could yield a quick end to fighting, according the official, who wasn’t authorized to speak publicly about the private meeting and requested anonymity. Advocates say almost 30,000 Syrians have died in the con-

fl ict — but the international community still appears paralyzed on a course of action beyond sanctions and isolation that might pressure Assad into a peace arrangement. Assad is being shielded diplomatically by Russia and China, and the West accuses Iran of providing his regime with military support. Najib Ghadban, a senior member of the opposition Syrian National Council credited Obama with saying the right things but said more action was needed. He compared the tepid support of the West with the weapons and political aid Assad’s side is receiving, and said rebels should be provided military assistance and international protection of safe zones in Syria where they can operate freely. “People feel like they are left on their own,” said Ghadban, a political science professor at the University of Arkansas. Obama’s “support for the right of the Syrian people to achieve freedom remains abstract and academic,” added Louay Safi , another U.S.-based council member. The U.S. president stressed, however, that more sectarian violence must not follow Assad.

Family pleads for former Marine’s release from Iran BY DAVID N. GOODMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. — The family of a former Marine imprisoned on espionage charges in Iran is using Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s visit to New York to address U.N. General Assembly to renew their pleas for his release. The family of Amir Hekmati, who was arrested while visiting his grandmothers in Iran in August 2011, held a news conference with the Council for Islamic-American Relations in suburban Detroit in which they

appealed to Iran to release Hekmati on humanitarian grounds. Hekmati’s father was diagnosed last week with an inoperable brain tumor, and the family asked that the 29-year-old be allowed to return home to be with his father. “We ask for mercy. We ask for diplomacy. We ask for humanity,” said Hekmati’s brotherin-law, Ramy Kurdi. He said he hopes Ahmadinejad raises her brother’s case on returning home “so the wise leaders there can make a decision and let him come home.”

Sarah Hekmati, who is married to Kurdi, added: “We hope that the Iranian authorities who are here in the United States will hear our plea.” Amir Hekmati was born in Arizona and raised in Michigan. His parents live in the Flint area, where his father Ali Hekmati teaches at Mott Community College. The elder Hekmati underwent brain surgery Sept. 19 and is asking to see his son before he dies, said Ramy Kurdi’s brother, Bilal Kurdi. Amir Hekmati, whom Iran

accuses of being a CIA spy, was tried, convicted and sentenced to death. His conviction was overturned in January, but he has remained in prison with limited contact with his family. No new trial has been scheduled. The U.S. government has repeatedly denied that Hekmati is a spy. In August, the State Department raised concerns about his health following reports that he had lost a lot of weight. Islamic council Michigan director Dawud Walid said his group has repeatedly reached

out to Iranian officials on Hekmati’s behalf. Walid said he wrote a letter to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, about Hekmati’s detention, making an appeal on religious grounds as one Muslim to another on behalf of a third. “They know our organization very well,” Walid said. “We know them, and they know us.” Hekmati’s mother, Benhaz Hekmati, was able to see her son several times during a visit to Iran last winter. Since then, contact has been limited. “He should be allowed phone

calls, visits on a weekly basis,” said Sarah Hekmati, 31, of Lathrup Village. “He has no contact with us. We have no idea what his condition is.” Lena Masri, a lawyer for the Islamic council, said it and the family are going public now after many efforts behind the scenes. “Every channel that we tried to pursue has hit a dead end,” Masri said. She said Iranian officials may hope to trade Hekmati for U.S. detainees at Guantanamo Bay. “Unfortunately, he’s been caught in the middle,” she said.

DIVERSITY

King Jr. Day. Other activities, including a speaker series, music and film events, and an art exhibit will also be held. “This celebration will raise awareness of not only the legacy of slavery but also ongoing global and national challenges related to freedom,” Clarke said. She said a variety of upcoming Inclusive Illinois events will also celebrate the campus’s diversity, such as an annual diversity breakfast hosted by the Office of Equal Opportunity and Access. “I believe that the more diverse the people are around the table for any discussion, whether you’re talking about gender, race, religion, age, geography, economics, etc., the richer the conversation becomes and, ultimately, the better the outcomes,” said Chancellor Phyllis Wise in a statement. By implementing diversity programs and events on campus, Clarke said the University is providing students with the “opportunity to be exposed to new ideas, new people, new ways of thinking and new knowledge.” “It’s important for (students) to understand that they live in a diverse global society,” Clarke said. “These types of programs give students the chance to interact with people who are different from them racially and ethnically and who have different religious or social cultural backgrounds.”

Spanish marchers, riot police clash during protest against new austerity measures BY ALAN CLENDENNING THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

M A DR I D — S pa i n’s government was hit hard by the country’s fi nancial crisis on multiple fronts Tuesday as protesters enraged with austerity cutbacks and tax hikes clashed with police near Parliament, a separatist-minded region set elections seen as an independence referendum and the nation’s high borrowing costs rose again. More than 1,000 riot police blocked off access to the Parliament building in the heart of Madrid, forcing most protesters to crowd nearby avenues and shutting down traffic at the height of the evening rush hour.

Police used batons to push back some protesters at the front of the march attended by an estimated 6,000 people as tempers fl ared, and some demonstrators broke down barricades and threw rocks and bottles toward authorities. Television images showed officers beating protesters in response, and an Associated Press television producer saw five people dragged away by police and two protesters bloodied. Spanish state TV said at least 28 were injured, including two officers, and that 22 people were detained. Independent Spanish media reported higher numbers that could not immediately be confi rmed. The demonstration, organized

with an “Occupy Congress” slogan, drew protesters from all walks of life weary of nine straight months of painful economic austerity measures imposed by Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy and his solid majority of lawmakers. Smaller demonst rat ions T uesd ay attracted hundreds of protesters in Barcelona and Seville. Angry Madrid marchers who got as close as they could to Parliament, 250 meters (yards) away, yelled, “Get out! Get out! They don’t represent us! Fire them!” “The only solution is that we should put everyone in Parliament out on the street so they know what it’s like,” said Maria Pilar Lopez, a 60-year-old

government secretary. Lopez and others called for fresh elections, claiming the government’s hard-hitting austerity measures are proof that the ruling Popular Party misled voters when it won power last November in a landslide. While Rajoy has said he has no plans to cut pensions for Spaniards, Lopez fears her retirement age could be raised from 65 to as much as 70. Three of her seven nieces and nephews have been laid off since Rajoy ousted Spain’s Socialists, and she said the prospect of them fi nding jobs “is very bleak.” Spain is struggling in its second recession in three years with unemployment near 25 percent.

in our organization to become more aware of.” Illini Fighting Hunger is another student organization dedicated to alleviating food insecurity in the Champaign community and around the world. As National Hunger Awareness Week approaches, the organization is working on packing meals and helping other organizations with independent initatives.

“Folks have to make certain decisions, like paying for medical care as opposed to paying for food,” said Greg Damhorst, director of Illini Fighting Hunger and graduate student. “These are decisions that typically we don’t think about having to choose between ... on a daily basis.”

halls on campus early to participate in events and activities that will help them get acclimated to a large community. Also new to the campus this year is a series of mandatory diversity workshops for all new students on campus. Romano said these will give new students a chance to “explore and learn about cultural diversity and cross-cultural communication.” These workshops will be held during the spring semester, so students will be able to share their own diversity-related experiences after having been on campus for a semester, she said. According to the 2012 Impact Report for Inclusive Illinois, over 150 registered student organizations focus on diversity and inclusion. Many of these organizations hold their own programs specific to their groups. Associate Chancellor Menah Pratt-Clarke said some student associations may partner with a larger office or unit to plan and organize an event if they are interested in holding a diversity program. Clarke said one of the campus’s biggest programming efforts this year is the two-month-long celebration of the sesquicentennial of the Emancipation Proclamation.

This year, they will be using dryerase boards and taking photos of students with their notes to political leaders. “It’s more personal to see the people who are sending the notes,” he said. “If you can put a face to a request, it holds more weight.” Students will be able to register to vote at the event.

College experience allows students the freedom to ‘blaze our own path’

JOHNIVAN DARBY THE DAILY ILLINI

University police officials should send an Illini-Alert to students, parents if there is an extreme threat to campus

L

ast Monday, police found an unattended suitcase near the Harding Band Building, prompting an evacuation of the area. The University bomb squad was called to the scene, and the surrounding area was blocked off. But unless you were among the group of people being evacuated, you probably didn’t hear much about this until now. That is likely because the University did not issue an Illini-Alert message. And while the suitcase was removed within a couple of hours without any damage or harm, the police department went to extensive measures to do it. To that extent, the Champaign police surely didn’t handle this situation like some typical ho-hum protocol, such as investigating a car accident or responding to a noise complaint. No, this was more serious, yet there was still no alert to the campus community. As is apparent from our past history of excessively using crime alerts, bombarding the University community is not the best approach to safety outreach. The high volume of alerts at that time did not make the majority of people feel well-informed and confident; rather, it incited somewhat of a panic among students — and parents especially. Thus, there has to be some kind of standard, some kind of line that we draw for the appropriate amount of information dispersal. It seems University police officials have yet to learn to strike that balance. Students trust police and other public safety figures to use their own discretion and determine what will unnecessarily bring about fear. But when a suspicious, unattended suitcase spurs an investigation by police and an evacuation of the area, that is something of which everyone on campus, all of whom may be in danger’s way, should be aware. And the likelihood of an actual bomb threat appearing on campus is not so far off. Bomb threats at college campuses have pervaded top headlines in the past few weeks. Targeted schools included Louisiana State University, the University of Texas at Austin, North Dakota State University, Hiram College in Ohio and, most recently, Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. We don’t expect to be notified every time police find reason to be concerned. We don’t expect to hear about every fire alarm that goes off or every attempted burglary. But if police are going to go to extremes such as evacuating and then quarantining a University building and taping off an entire campus block, that seems to be within our right to know, especially given the recent history of threats on college campuses.

no way to foolproof the practice of medicine. Moreover, the system held in place for checking for these kinds of errors isn’t officiated by any means. I’d liken it to how a newsroom works: A physician’s prescription will go through the hands of nurses, pharmacists and even other doctors before it’s administered, much like how an article will go through checks by the editors and copy editors before going to print. But all it takes is for a small enough error to go through the checks unnoticed because the task of checking becomes so mundane. An even greater issue in the medical world is how little the doctor’s word is double-checked. “There are a great many system problems that crop up, like a lack of dialogue between physicians or lab test results that don’t make it to the provider,” said Dr. Mark Graber to the Journal of the American Medical Association. “Physicians get some feedback on diagnosis errors, but they don’t get enough.” The slew of possible circumstances that brew preventable medical errors are many, and identifying these causes is paramount. The advance of technologies, such as computerized medical records that hold a person’s whole history in one file, can be a starting point for medical professionals to systematize accountability for medical errors. But the human reasons behind these errors cannot be ignored in the process of solving them.

verwhelming. That would probably be the best word to describe my first five weeks here at the University as a freshman. Fun, most definitely, but overwhelming all the same. Stress levels went into overdrive as classes, the social scene and the tight confines of my dorm room all hit at the same time. But what I found most overwhelming on the streets of Champaign-Urbana was freedom. It’s now up to me whether I go out or stay in. Whether I choose to continue going to church (I do), or whether I choose to eat healthy (sometimes) is all up to me. Class is optional, and the direction of my future is entirely my choice. I still get great advice and support from friends, family and the fantastic staff in the College of Business, but the responsibility from where I go from here is all mine. This freedom is a scary concept. It brings with it the likelihood of failure and the possibility that I won’t make the right choice in every situation. I certainly don’t like the chance of screwing up. But that’s how it is, and it’s been hard to adjust. Of course, there’s always the ability to mess up, and there always has been. Before college, and certainly in high school, we all did things we regretted. But now the margin for error has shrunk, and the stakes are much greater. That’s what stressed me out. Now, five weeks in, I’m feeling much better about this new experience. And I’ve learned that it does get better. The college life doesn’t have anywhere else to go but up from the sweltering confusion that struck on movein day. What made it get better was a realization that these newfound freedoms at my disposal allowed me to be me. The liberty that comes with the college experience on the best campus in the state is the means to an end: whatever end is best for me. If that’s a triple major in international business, biology and political science, while still being involved in organizations on campus and supporting the Fighting Illini, then I can do it. The freedom here allows us to explore and push past the boundaries that held us back in the past. If there is anything that I have learned in professor Bob Murphy’s calculus class, it’s that some limits do exist. But that doesn’t mean they’re defined. If the limit of where you’re coming from doesn’t come close to where I’m headed, then there is nothing holding both of us back. You can be successful your way, and I can try out my own path. I would love to go into the societal math, but that’s for another time. Everyone’s limits and abilities, now and in the future, are going to be different. And it is not for me or anybody else to tell you what yours are. This collegiate experience is for you to discover for yourself what yours are and who you are. You do that through your free choices. Freedom is the collegiate ideal for this reason. The decisions that define us are much broader in scope than solely major ones. These choices impact the rest of our lives. We are the collegial collegiate youth. We don’t have to rely on the judgment calls of others, and why should we? All of us are at a time in our lives where we have the most personal liberty that we may have ever experienced. At this University, we are embarking upon our future of newfound rights and responsibilities; free to blaze our own path, free to fail and succeed. And through that, we are free to become who we are meant to be. The choices are our own and not anybody else’s to make. That’s how it should be.

Even though Americans are more cynical, you shouldn’t lose faith in little things JOHN BUYSSE Opinions columnist

F

aith can be a very strange subject. When people talk about faith, it often centers around religion. If you think about it, though, religion is just one of many things that a person can have faith in. Whether it’s trusting a significant other to be faithful or being confident that government is on your side, people believe in something or someone. For me, this all came to light last weekend after I (briefly) experienced my biggest fear: having my MacBook Pro stolen. While talking on my cellphone in the food court inside the Illini Union, I became distracted and walked away from my backpack. It contained my laptop and a few other belongings that I rely on every day. After pacing back to the spot I left it, I gasped in horror, realizing that my backpack was gone. Like most people, my first thought was that someone had stolen it. It seemed like the only possibility. I was wrong. About a minute into my panic attack, the woman working the counter at Chick-filA tapped me on the shoulder and pointed to my backpack sitting next to the cash register. Safe and sound. I wanted to hug the woman. Although her actions scared me

more than anything in recent memory, she saved me from experiencing the actual panic a stolen backpack would cause. After thanking the woman for her kindness, I walked away and began to wonder why my first and only assumption was that someone stole my bag. In that moment, I realized I had lost faith in basic human decency and replaced it with suspicion and fear. As I began to wonder why this happened, it became clear that in the current state of things, it can be pretty easy to stop believing. Young Americans are losing faith in formerly reliable institutions with constant conflict abroad and a struggling economy at home. In fact, 33 percent of Americans do not trust the federal government, the lowest in 15 years. On top of that, 68 percent of American millennials never question the existence of God, according to a June 2012 Pew Research Survey. This is a large number, but it is down sharply from 76 percent in 2009 and 83 percent in 2007. Tragic displays of human evil like the shootings in Aurora, Colo. and the uptick of murders in Chicago have started to chip away at society’s ability to trust its own. Since these were dark thoughts, I started to think about things I still believe in to make myself feel a little bit better. First and foremost, I will always have faith in my family’s ability to love and support me in any situa-

tion. They have been there from the beginning of my life and have never given me a reason to lose this faith. My friends receive the same trust, and I value their spots in my life just as much as family. I have faith in the comfort that home brings. No matter what is happening in my life, I can count on returning to my childhood house and getting that inexplicable feeling that makes a house a home. Although less important, I will always believe in the Chicago White Sox. No matter how many games they lose, how many players they trade or how much they raise their ticket prices, I will stand behind them. Even if we don’t realize it, the list of things we unconditionally believe in is long. You may think that having faith in the fact that your mom’s homemade lasagna will taste just as good as the way you remember it seems inconsequential, but it is so much more. It’s something to believe in. The brief period of self-reflection, brought on by a fake robbery opened my eyes to just how blessed I am. As we continue to enjoy these crisp fall days, sit down somewhere quiet and make a list of everything you believe in. The things you list will surprise you. Even if the only thing you can list is the fact that the sun will come up tomorrow, well, that’s something to believe in.

Medical deaths from human error can be prevented by double-checking NORA IBRAHIM Opinions columnist

A

physician embodies all that is intimidating about authority figures: the white coat, their duration of schooling, the slew of letters following his or her name. It’s easy to forget that, ultimately, they are human. And like humans, they’re prone to mistakes. But unlike other industries subject to human error (administration, government, business), the medical community has not always been held accountable for being transparent with its errors. Last Thursday, The Wall Street Journal published a piece by Dr. Marty Makary, author of “Unaccountable: What Hospitals Won’t Tell You and How Transparency Can Revolutionize Health Care.” In it, Makary tells the story no one wants to hear: Preventable medical errors kill enough people to fill four jumbo jets each week. If you choose to look into it even further, the facts get even uglier. According to the American Association for Justice, preventable medical errors would be the sixth leading cause of death if it were counted by the Center for Disease Control. HealthGrades, a U.S. health care rating organization, determined that 1 in 5 Medicare patients die as a result of negligence in care. In a piece by the Journal of the American Medical Association, it was

shown that inaccurate and delayed diagnoses occurred 20 percent of the time, causing an estimated 40,000 to 80,000 deaths per year. This onslaught of information was more than disconcerting — it sat at the pit of my stomach for much of the last week. Individuals in the medical profession have earned the respect they receive rightfully. They fought for it after jumping the hurdles of being a pre-med student. They fought for it during the admissions process. They fought for it after night after endless night staying up studying for the five exams coming up in one week, then applying their acquired knowledge for the board exams and then staying up night after night again during their residency period. In the end, this fight is for a privilege: a rewarding career that cares for amazing individuals under a fascinating field of science. It’s what I’m fighting for every day. But if the fight’s out of you when you get through to the other side, it affects your patients. Growing up, I remember my mother frequently being away from home, pulling 40-hour shifts during her residency training. Working long hours induces fatigue; it makes simple, day-today tasks more susceptible to basic errors that you’re not likely to catch, even if you’ve gone through it a thousand times. One of her colleagues, an anesthesiologist who’d been with the hospital for over two decades, had miscalculated the dose he was administering to a patient because of a decimal error. Being a seasoned physician is

College students are no strangers to putting off an assignment until the last minute, then pulling an all-nighter to get it done. Sometimes it seems like college comes with an unwanted helping of sleep-deprivation. However, even with this prevalent college culture, some students have trained their bodies to always wake up early in the morning. Nathan Liang, sophomore in Engineering and ROTC member, said he tries not to pull allnighters to finish assignments. When he has ROTC training, he needs to be awake by 4:30 a.m., and he has 8 a.m. classes on regular school days. “Since my schedule goes till 4 p.m. along with ROTC (training), time management is definitely a must,” Liang said. “I try not to pull all-nighters to finish assignments by starting early and managing my time.” Gregory Lambeth, psychologist at the Counseling Center, advises against staying up late to finish school work. According to Lambeth, research has concluded that staying up late affects memory and, therefore, learning. Because of that, he said there is some benefit to going to bed early so the information you did learn stays engraved in your mind. However, sometimes because of students’ hectic schedules and heavy workload, staying up late to finish an assignment

Mark Hohn, a novice beekeeper in Kent, holds up a plastic bag with a dead zombie bee and pupae, two at each end of the bag. Hohn found that his bees are infected with a parasite that causes them to fly at night and lurch around erratically until they die.

‘Zombie bees’ spotted in Wash.; infection affecting nation’s bees SEATTLE — The infection is as grim as it sounds: “Zombie bees” have a parasite that causes them to fly at night and lurch around erratically until they die. And experts say the condition has crept into Washington state. “I joke with my kids that the zombie apocalypse is starting at my house,” said Mark Hohn, a novice beekeeper who spotted the infected insects at his suburban Seattle home. Hohn returned from vacation a few weeks ago to find many of his bees either dead or flying in jerky patterns and then flopping on the floor. He remembered hearing about

CAREERS

zombie bees, so he collected several of the corpses and popped them into a plastic bag. About a week later, the Kent man had evidence his bees were infected: the pupae of parasitic flies. “Curiosity got the better of me,” Hohn said. The zombie bees were the first to be confirmed in Washington state, The Seattle Times reported. San Francisco State University biologist John Hafernik first discovered zombie bees in California in 2008. Hafernik now uses a website to recruit citizen scientists like Hohn to track the infection across the country. Observers

also have found zombie bees in Oregon and South Dakota. The infection is another threat to bees that are needed to pollinate crops. Hives have been failing in recent years because of a mysterious ailment called colony collapse disorder, in which all the adult honey bees in a colony suddenly die. The life cycle of the fly that infects zombie bees is reminiscent of the movie “Alien,” the newspaper reported. A small adult female lands on the back of a honeybee and injects eggs into the bee’s abdomen. The eggs hatch into maggots. “They basically eat the insides out of the bee,” Hafernik said.

She encourages people to follow a career path that they are passionate about, but recommends for people to put their health before their career. “Since I am coming from a health profession, I would say your health (is important),” Nadhimi said. “If it risks your living stability, I would say don’t go for it. But if it’s doable, like you can manage somehow a nice life with it, then go for it.” While all colleges come with their share of financial pros and cons, most share the common theme of being full of students who are passionate about what they’re learning.

UNDER WRAPS Off the record (and off the menu) many restaurants offer secret dishes MORGAN QUILICI STAFF WRITER

W

hen customers walk into an eatery, the first thing they might do is stare at the menu. It may take seconds or minutes to read through the whole thing, and sometimes they still can’t pinpoint what they want. Little do many know, there is a whole other list of items, kept hidden from customers and distributed only at the mercy of trusted employees. It’s the secret menu. The origin of these underground items, which are available upon request but not listed on restaurants’ menus, remains a mystery. Most locations don’t know where they came from — either past items that were discontinued or customer favorites passed along to friends. One thing is for sure: The secret’s out now. Below is a list of just a few of the locations, and secret menu items they hold. Morgan can be reached at quilici1@dailyillini.com.

Students aim for balance between stability, fulfillment BY TANYA TRIVEDI STAFF WRITER

As many students decide what major to pursue during their college years, they must decide what should be their top priority: a fi nancially stable career, or a career motivated by their love for the subject. “I would rather come home to a microwave dinner than a lobster, if I am returning after spending a day doing work that I love,” said Chase Dimock, graduate student in LAS who teaches queer literature at the University, as he sat in a crammed office shared by few other TAs. “Yeah, we all hang out here,” he said.

Amelia Sacco, junior in Media, said she is passionate about her media and cinema studies major, yet understands that fi nancial security is not guaranteed right out of college. “It’s a hard industry to break into,” she said. “Now that I’m a junior and I have an apartment, I realize that there are going to be bills to pay.” Sacco said she is willing to do other jobs to support her dream of producing her own movies. “I’ve always known what I’ve wanted to do,” she said. “I can’t imagine myself doing anything else.” Akshita Siddula, junior in LAS,

is double-majoring in comparative world literature and public health. She plans to work for nonprofit health organizations later in her life. “I know I will not be making a lot of money in my life, but I will be doing something I love,” Siddula said. Although her parents would be happier if her career plan promised more fi nancial stability, she said she plans to keep progressing in the same direction. Both Siddula and Dimock said they’ve experienced times when people from the seemingly more practical majors have made them feel that their majors held more

importance. Because companies today are looking for potential employees who have degrees in specific concentrations, it is becoming a harder task to successfully have a career in the field of liberal arts and sciences, Dimock said. The lack of societal demand for such jobs is decreasing the amount of funding allotted to LAS. The broader development of critical thinking, writing and analyzing used to be given more importance back in the day, but engineers and business majors still benefit from a background in LAS, Dimock said.

While he enjoys teaching a liberal arts and sciences class, he respects students who enter other colleges. “You can’t demonize (students) for wanting a career that gives them the support they need to do what they love,” Dimock said. It works out well for Nikhil Kapur, sophomore in Engineering, as his interest in this particular field is genuine. His interests lie in figuring out “how things work” and being a problem solver. “It just so happens that I really enjoy the work that is involved with Engineering, so the balance was quite easy for me,” Kapur

said, referring to the love for his major and the fi nancial comfort that it holds. Jasmine Nadhimi , junior in ACES with a concentration in human genetics and animal science, also has entered a field that often comes with fi nancial security. She went to community college for two years and pursued a degree in animal science. At the University, she chose genetics because it is a broader field than animal sciences and is a practical major. She said she would like to eventually pursue the physician’s assistance program at the

O-line looks to overcome injuries vs. Penn State

OF THE WEEK

Pocic expected to start; Thornton likely out against Nittany Lions BY SEAN HAMMOND STAFF WRITER

The last time Illinois offensive line coach Luke Butkus faced Penn State, he was blocking for quarterback Kurt Kittner as the Illini drove 80 yards to score the game-winning touchdown en route to a 33-28 victory. The date was Nov. 10, 2001, when Illinois scored 19 fourth quarter points in a game under the lights at Memorial Stadium. Butkus said he didn’t remember much of the game, except that his team won. “You might want to talk to Kurt Kittner. He usually remembers all that stuff,” he said, joking that he may have taken a few too many blows to the head. “I was too busy working in the trenches.” Butkus helped the Illini to their last outright Big Ten championship in what would be his fi nal season as a player for Illinois. He will meet Penn State again Saturday, this time from the sidelines in his fi rst year with the Illinois coaching staff. Butkus’ offensive line will have its hands full trying to stop the Nittany Lions front seven, led by senior linebacker Michael Maunti. With recent injuries to center Graham Pocic and left tackle Hugh Thornton, the offensive line’s job will be all the more difficult. “Are we banged up a little bit? Yeah,” Butkus said. “But everybody is. That’s the way it is. It’s a physical, aggressive, rough game. You’re going to have nicks and bruises, and you’re going to get hurt. We’ve got to fight through it.” Thornton sustained an undisclosed injury shortly before halftime Saturday against Louisiana Tech and never returned to the field. He wore a purple jersey at practice Tuesday, which signifies an injured player, and Butkus said he did not participate much.

Conners dives into coaching Illini volleyball BY DANIEL MILLER-MCLEMORE STAFF WRITER

Packing for road games is a breeze for Dan Conners. Living out of suitcases isn’t foreign for the Illinois volleyball team’s fi rst-year assistant coach. He’s been doing so since August, when he came to Champaign. Conners is the freshest face to augment the Illini coaching staff. Head coach Kevin Hambly announced the hire in a July 30 press release. And just 20 days before the Illini played their fi rst game of the season, Conners arrived on campus, leaving hardly any time for the new coach to settle into his new hometown. A month and a half later, Conners is still scrambling to keep his head above water, dealing with the move. When asked if he ever felt overwhelmed, Conners laughed wryly. “I’m always overwhelmed right now,” he said. “I’ll probably be overwhelmed through the rest of the season just because it’s all happening really fast.” “It’s a whirlwind right now for him, for sure,” Hambly said. Conners’ world will continue spinning for at least the next two weeks. His wife, Becky, is arriving Wednesday, with the couple having fi nally closed on their house in Nebraska. And with movers arriving next week, the two will fi nally be able to move into their new house in Champaign. “A lot of it’s happening this week, so it’s overwhelming,” Conners said. “Once I can get everything together so I can just focus

Luke Guthrie

Former Illini golfer putts his way to guaranteed spot on PGA Tour with recent wins at WBN Classic and Albertsons Boise Open Presented by Kraft Golf brings Guthrie across the United States

BY JOHNATHAN HETTINGER ASSISTANT COPY CHIEF

Since finishing his career at Illinois, Luke Guthrie has competed in 10 professional golf tournaments in 10 states, three on the PGA Tour and seven on the Web.com Tour. Guthrie has earned $667,135 in the events.

Editor’s note: The Daily Illini sports desk sits down Sunday nights and decides which Illinois athlete or coach is our Illini of the Week. Student-athletes and coaches are evaluated by individual performance and contribution to team success. Former Illini golfer Luke Guthrie has won twothirds of $1 million since becoming a professional in June. But despite his success, he hasn’t been living it up. “I am driving a Hyundai Sonata, my mom’s car,” the 22-year-old said. “She loans it to me once in a while when I have long road trips.” “I had a Camry in college, but it’s getting older, so my parents didn’t really trust it on the road with me on some of these longer trips. They didn’t want to see it break down on me.” Guthrie hasn’t had to worry about his golf game breaking down on him. In seven Web.com events, he has had six top-10 finishes and two victories. He won his second Web.com Tour title in two weeks Sunday at the WBN Classic in Midland, Texas. He was able to complete the five-stroke come-from-behind victory by shooting a 66, 6-under-par, in Sunday’s final round. He was helped out when leader Cameron Percy shot consecutive bogeys on holes 16 and 17, giving Guthrie the edge he needed to win. “I’ve been executing my shots,” said Guthrie, who also won the Albertsons Boise Open presented by Kraft on Sept. 16. “The putter has been cooperating. In golf, when the putts are going in, you’ve got to take advantage of it.” The victories vaulted him to the top of the Web. com Tour money list with $382,463. Add that to the $284,672 he made in three PGA Tour top-20 finishes this summer, and he has made $667,135 in the three months since ending his collegiate career. With his brother and Illinois assistant coach Zach Guthrie serving as his part-time caddy, Luke was able to top the list despite only competing in seven of the tour’s 22 events so far. He leads No. 2 Luke List, who has competed in 20 events, by $51,384. At the end of the season, the top 25 earners on the Web.com Tour will receive their PGA Tour cards; Guthrie has already guaranteed his spot in the top 25. Yet another example of how everything has been clicking for Guthrie since winning his second-consecutive individual Big Ten Championship and fourth team championship in April, as well as helping the Illini to the NCAA Championships in June, Guthrie hit his fourth hole-in-one at the WBN Classic on Friday. “(I’ve had success by) just applying everything I learned under Coach Small and my brother, Zach Guthrie, at Illinois,” he said. “There’s a certain way that those coaches teach you how to play the game. They teach you how to prepare mentally and get your skills better.” Guthrie may be out of eligibility, but the fifth-year senior in Business isn’t finished with his education at the University. He is currently enrolled in 13 credit hours to finish up his bachelor’s degree. “A degree is important, especially from the University of Illinois,” he said. “It’s a big thing and a backup plan. Plus, I put four years of hard work into my school and the academic side of things and those would all be worth nothing if I don’t finish this out and see this through. I need to finish this up.” The Quincy, Ill., native’s classes meet on Monday and Wednesday, but, due to his tour schedule, he hasn’t been able to attend many classes.

Guthrie said he has been too busy with golf to make any significant purchases, but he does plan on celebrating his back-to-back victories by attending the Ryder Cup this week in Medinah, Ill., with his girlfriend, Illini golfer Kaitlyn Wampler, and friends. He competed for the United States in the Junior Ryder Cup in 2004 in Westfield Center, Ohio. He and another former Illini Chris DeForest halved their match against current world No. 1 and Team Europe member Rory Mcllroy and Marius Thorp. He plans on finishing the season with one PGA and three Web.com events before graduating in December. In January, Guthrie will begin a new stage of his life as a member of the PGA Tour. “Ever since I was a kid growing up, (playing on the PGA Tour) has been my dream,” he said. “Ever since I was little, people asked me what I wanted to do, and

Soccer looks for rhythm, strong connecting passes after tough loss BY GINA MUELLER STAFF WRITER

MICHAEL BOJDA THE DAILY ILLINI

Illinois’ Nicole Denenberg (16) passes the ball with an Iowa defender on her heels during the second half of the Sept. 16 match. The Illini held on to win 2-1.

Rhythm applies to more than just music. It also plays a huge part in a soccer team’s success. This weekend, the Illinois women’s soccer team couldn’t find the right rhythm, which cost the Illini their first home loss of the season against Penn State. Sunday’s game was the battle against the two best bands in the Big Ten, but while Illinois was trying to find its rhythm, Penn State seemed to hit every note perfectly. Within the first minute of Sunday’s game, the Nittany Lions had already tallied their first goal. They were connecting strong passes, which allowed them many dangerous attempts on goal. The Nittany Lions produced 25 shots, 10 on goal, compared to the Illini’s 19

shots, only four of which were on target. Unfortunately, Illinois wasn’t able to create rhythm until the second half. “Once we settled down and started to play and find a rhythm, we did some good things,” head coach Janet Rayfield said. “We created, at least, shots. I think the thing right now is the shots we are creating, we need to get on frame from an attacking standpoint.” One of the major attributes to creating rhythm in soccer is connecting passes. The predominant way to get from the defensive backline to a dangerous attack near the opponent’s goal is through a strong connection of passes. The Illini had success against Big Ten opponent Iowa by using quick one-touch passes, but weren’t able to perform those against a faster Nitta-

ny Lions team. A lot of Illinois’ passes were quickly intercepted by the more agile Penn State players. Illinois was able to move the ball up the field into Penn State’s half but never in a comfortable position to confidently strike the ball on target. Senior Nicole Denenberg said it’s due to the team’s preparation, rather than the actions of its opponents. “It’s more of us just coming out and being ready to play,” she said. “Really moving off the ball and getting into those spaces where we can connect passes.” The Big Ten is well known as a physical conference. Though there were only nine fouls in the game against Penn State, there was still a strong sense of

The big 10 of the

Conference play begins as Big Ten enters 117th season BY JAMAL COLLIER STAFF WRITER

Editor’s note: Big 10 of the Big Ten is a collection of tidbits from around the conference. This weekly feature provides a recap from the previous slate of games and also serves as a preview to the upcoming football weekend.

Conference play begins Saturday marks the start of conference play for the nation’s oldest athletic conference. It’s the 117th season in the Big Ten and the second year of the two divisions and championship game.

Michigan vs. Notre Dame could end? Michigan is off this week and still reeling from its loss to Notre Dame, but now the Fighting Irish have notified the Wolverines that they plan to opt out of the schools’ contract from 2015 to 2017. After 2014, it will be at least five years before they match up again, as the two schools were already scheduled to take a hiatus in 2018 and 2019. The Michigan football Twitter account tweeted that the decision “was Notre Dame’s and not ours.”

Michigan State's Le'Veon Bell, left, is brought down by Eastern Michigan's Kirkland Bryant Saturday in East Lansing, Mich. Bell rushed for a career-high 253 yards and a touchdown to help Michigan State win 23-7.

Michigan State’s 23-7 victory over Eastern Michigan.

Top defensive performance Wisconsin linebacker Chris Borland recorded 12 tackles, 3.5 for loss, and a career-high two sacks as Wisconsin defeated UTEP on Saturday. It is his fourth career Big Ten Defensive player of the Week honor, tied for the secondmost in conference history.

Where they rank The highest-ranked Big Ten team in the AP poll is No. 14 Ohio State, while Michigan is the latest Big Ten team to fall out of the rankings. Eight Big Ten teams received votes, including Northwestern — just three votes shy of the top 25.

Game to watch ESPN’s “College Gameday” will be in East Lansing this week, when No. 14 Ohio State visits No. 20 Michigan State in a battle between the Big Ten’s topranked teams. Michigan State has the No. 6 defense in the country, and the Buckeyes have looked like the Big Ten’s best team thus far.

Game to keep an eye on Wisconsin, the preseason favorite to win the Leaders division, has struggled to a 3-1 start and fallen out of the rankings.

give our players opportunities to win.” Penn State has held opponents to just 15.3 points per game through nonconference play. A struggling offense will need its offensive line to step up. Co-offensive coordinator Billy Gonzales said making sure the quarterback is protected is a top priority.

The Badgers go on the road to face No. 22 Nebraska; the Cornhuskers will have revenge on their mind after losing their Big Ten debut in Madison last season.

Remaining unbeaten Northwestern, Minnesota and Ohio State all enter the weekend 4-0, but only the Buckeyes are ranked. The three teams will put their perfect records on the line on the road against Indiana, Iowa and Michigan State, respectively.

Odd men out The start of the Big Ten season will have to wait for Purdue and Michigan. The Boilermakers are at home against Marshall, which leads the nation in passing yards and is averaging 41 points per game. But it is also allowing almost 43 points per game. The Wolverines, on a bye this week, open conference play next week in West Lafayette.

ESPN coming to C-U This Saturday’s Illinois vs. Penn State game will broadcast on ESPN at 11 a.m. Dave Pasch, Brian Griese and Jenn Brown will have the call for the broadcast team for a pair of 2-2 teams that appear to be trending in different directions.

“Like I said from Day One with these guys, the minute we walk into training camp, after the fi rst time we put pads on and the fi rst time we walk onto that field, your body’s never going to feel the same,” Butkus said. Like the 2001 Illinois squad, this year’s offensive line will have to battle through adversity if it wants to avenge last

season’s 10-7 loss highlighted by a missed last-second field goal attempt by former Illini kicker Derek Dimke. Butkus said the 2001 Illini were confident they could score on anybody, and like he tells his linemen everyday, they played “Illinois football.”

Illini hockey strategizes for high-intensity shootout scenarios BY STEPHEN BOURBON STAFF WRITER

Editor’s note: This is the first of a two-part series about how Illinois hockey players approach the shootout, one of the most pressure-packed situations in sports. The stadium goes dead silent. The ice has been cleared to just two players, an attacker and a goalie. The mental lead-up is excruciating, as both players rack their memories for tendencies from the past 65 minutes of action. One referee blows his whistle, and it begins. The shootout in hockey throws out all team concepts and strategy and puts the fate of the game in a one-on-one joust between players. “Absolutely, it’s kind of nervewracking,” junior forward Eddie

Quagliata said. “Especially when they score first and you have to answer back. Or when they miss, and the game is on your stick.” The Illinois hockey team had its first taste of a shootout in the first regular-season game of the season Friday against Michigan State. Despite netting four goals in regulation, the Illini could muster just one goal in five rounds of the shootout, dropping the game 5-4. Head coach Nick Fabbrini said he is confident when a game reaches a shootout because he likes his combination of attacking forwards and stout goalie Nick Clarke. “Confidencewise, I feel pretty good about shootouts,” Fabbrini said. “We’re definitely going to have a chance to win in every shootout, which is all you can ask

VOLLEYBALL FROM PAGE 1B on volleyball, I’ll be feeling a little less overwhelmed.” As if his life hasn’t been busy enough, Conners found himself trying to fit in with an Illinois team coming off a national title game appearance. Further compounding the pressure, Illinois opened the season with a rigorous nonconference schedule that included six games against ranked opponents. That stretch has only led into a Big Ten slate peppered with heavyweights, featuring 11 matches against top-25 opponents. Throw in the fact that the Illini are rolling out a lineup that prominently features two redshirt freshmen in Jocelynn Birks and Ali Stark, and it’s easy to see just how difficult a situation Conners walked into. His jam-packed schedule has left him short on sleep multiple nights. “I just wish there were more hours in the day,” he said. That’s not to say Conners wasn’t prepared for this type of grind. In fact, there may have been no better man for the job. Conners’ volleyball life was weaned on tough competition, and his lifeblood has been success. Out of high school, Conners walked on to national power UCLA and played for five years, during which the Bruins won two NCAA titles and fi nished runner-up twice. For most of his college career, Conners rode the bench, starting only seven games. But it gave him enough experience to play professionally for two years in Spain. Seeking a more permanent career, Conners returned to the U.S. to pursue a teaching job. But after coaching a summer camp at UCLA, Conners’ old coach, Al Scates, encouraged him to apply for an open assistant position at California State in Northridge. From that point, Conners has been on the coaching fast track.

SOCCER FROM PAGE 1B physicality shown. In the previous match Friday against Ohio State, a total of 25 fouls were assessed. The rough play made it hard for the Illini to win 50-50 balls resulting from flip throw-ins, corner kicks and goal kicks. “Penn State is extremely athletic,” senior Niki Read said. “They were extremely fast and extremely physical. Every time the ball

for. We’ve got three or four guys that should be able to put home goals on breakaways.” From the attacker’s perspective, the mindset is a little different compared with a breakaway during regulation. Although nothing changes with the players, the environment becomes a hindrance for shooters preparing to have their chance at the win. Unlike between periods, the ice is not cleaned before or after overtime. Twenty-five minutes of wear on the ice limits the options given to a shooter. “It is a factor, but I’m not going to make excuses,” said junior forward Austin Bostock, who missed his opportunity against the Spartans. “There was a lot of snow out there, and coach made it a point to let us know there would be a lot out there.”

After three years at Cal State Northridge, Conners was offered a position as an assistant coach for the women’s team at his alma mater, which he promptly took. His tenure at UCLA again proved successful, as the Bruins reached a Final Four and a Elite Eight during Conners’ five years there. His positive experiences made it even tougher to leave when he received an offer from Nebraska head coach John Cook prior to the 2011 season. “I didn’t want to leave UCLA,” Conners said. “I was super stoked to be there and happy. But I think it was a better move for my family to come to the Midwest as far as being able to provide for my family.” In his only season with the Cornhuskers, Conners helped lead them to a Big Ten championship and the No. 2 overall seed in the NCAA tournament before a shocking second-round loss to Kansas State ended their season. For Conners, the experience gained in his only season in Lincoln put him one step closer to his ultimate goal of running his own successful program. He initially thought Nebraska would be his last assistant coaching stop on that path, but when the opportunity opened to join Hambly, Conners couldn’t resist. “I wanted to be in a place where the head coach kind of matched or aligned with the culture that I wanted to run in my program,” Conners said. “So I wanted that fresh in my mind going into my next step. I felt like I could really learn here.” Conners describes Hambly’s program as one which encourages players to create their own culture in comparison to Nebraska’s, which he said asks players to “toe the line,” and UCLA’s, which he said allows players more freedom in decision-making. For an up-and-coming young coach, a better combination of situations to learn the ropes would be tough to fi nd. Despite the differences between the three schools, Conners has taken away one thing from all of them.

would be a 50-50, you know that you’re going to have a battle with them.” The Nittany Lions didn’t produce any flip throw-ins, while the Illini had multiple players use the flip throw such as junior Megan Pawloski and freshman Nicole Breece. This throw-in, along with other set plays, gave Illinois great 50-50 balls inside the 18-yard box, but Penn State’s defensive third won and cleared out the opportunities. The rhythm for an attack-

The “snow” creates an uneven ice surface, making it very diffi cult to keep the puck fl at, which is paramount in dekes and fakes. The inability to bust fancy moves like the NHL’s Patrick Kane or Evgeni Malkin, however, may not be such a bad thing. Back in his playing days, Fabbrini said he would just pick a spot and shoot to it, rather than tempt fate with the environment. “It never really bothered me,” the fi rst-year head coach said. “I was always more of a shooter in those situations anyway, rather than trying to make a move.” And it shows, as Fabbrini was 2-for-2 in shootout opportunities during the undefeated 2007-08 season for Illinois. Just one shooter gets his chance at a time, but the rest of the team is picking up valuable

“I think the biggest thing I’ve learned is that to be successful, you have to be yourself,” he said. “You have to own your personality and not try to be anybody else. ... You can have a lot of success doing it different ways, but you have to be true to yourself.” There may be no better breeding ground for those skills than with Hambly, whose style as the head coach is to delegate responsibilities and allow members of his staff total autonomy over their respective areas. “I really want them to take ownership of whatever their responsibilities are,” Hambly said. For Conners, that responsibility is scouting opponents. Hambly has been impressed by Conners’ ability to not only perceive other teams’ tendencies, but to “get inside the minds of that team” and understand its intentions. And having total ownership of that area — something he did not have at UCLA or Nebraska — has given Conners a new perspective on coaching. “It makes me more responsible for the product,” he said. “I think I shoulder a little more weight when we’re not performing the game plan or the game plan isn’t working.” For an Illinois team already accommodating multiple fresh faces, incorporating Conners at the last minute has simply added another wrinkle. “We’re getting used to his style, and he’s getting used to our culture,” senior setter Annie Luhrsen said. Conners’ style is markedly different from the man he replaced, David Kniffi n, who left to take the head coaching job of the UC Irvine men’s team. Luhrsen described Kniffi n as “kind of quirky,” while Conners is more low-key. “Dan’s just, he’s a little quieter, but when he has something to say, it’s always really important,” Luhrsen said. Conners’ calm exterior masks a burning work ethic that Hambly tabbed as his biggest strength. “It’s hard to fi nd this day and age,”

ing play doesn’t only involve the midfielders and forward positions. Every offensive play starts from the backline. However, this is another place the Illini struggled, allowing the Nittany Lions to score three first half goals. Illinois’ hesitation interrupted not only the offensive flow, but the defensive one as well. Holding onto the ball for one more second or taking one more touch can give the opposing team a dangerous opportunity in the defensive third. “We just have to be confident

information about the goaltender, in addition to seeing how he reacted during the four periods of play. Quagliata said factors such as the netminder’s size and his style of play affects which move he will use. “I’ve got two or three different moves I’m thinking about,” he said. “If it’s a bigger goalie, I’m probably going to deke him, but if it’s a smaller guy, I’ll probably just shoot on him. ... You have to pick your move depending on the goalie’s style.” “I’ve got a couple moves in my arsenal,” Bostock said. “You kind of have something in mind, but if you need to make a lastminute adjustment, you can, before you get to the net.” Though a shootout is not common, the Illini put in a healthy

amount of practice in such situations. Every practice on Thursdays ends with a shootout scenario, as well as other drills and scrimmages that can provide experience for breakaways. But no practice can fully simulate the magnitude of staring down the goaltender at the most important moment of the game. “Pressure is what you make of it,” Fabbrini said. “Some guys shrink away from it, other guys embrace it.” Though their coach believes in them, based on Friday’s performance, the Illini need to embrace the moment in order to pull out close wins.

DARYL QUITALIG THE DAILY ILLINI

Illinois assistant coach Dan Conners yells instructions during the match against Minnesota at Huff Hall on Friday. Hambly said. “Most people have this ridiculous sense of entitlement and they think that they should just get this and they should just get that.” It’s that work ethic that Conners is counting on to carry him through the next few months of the season and further down the road to his dream of running his own program. “It’s about wanting to be the best, and

in our defensive decisions,” Rayfield said. “Defense in this game, hesitation can be a difficult thing to deal with. I think we hesitated a little bit in those first 20 minutes, and Penn State certainly punished us and made us pay for those.” Beginning a rhythm and setting a tone for the match starts before the team steps out on the field. High energy and good camaraderie before warmups is essential for a successful game. “The energy level coming into the locker room at the beginning

in order to do that, you gotta put in the time and grind it out,” he said. For an Illinois team entering a difficult and key portion of its schedule, Conners’ willingness to grind through the tough times may be exactly what’s needed.

of the warmup is a huge difference, including the mentality,” Read said. “We always play good soccer throughout the game, but I think against Ohio State we played from the first minute to the last minute. We had no mental breaks, we played our butts off. And in this game, it was more lapses and a lot more breaks, especially from the beginning.” Illinois will look to find a strong rhythm throughout the season, especially this weekend on its first conference road trip to face Indi-

ana and Purdue. The Illini hope to learn from the weekend’s mistakes and develop a rhythm from the start. “Hopefully, we will take from this a good lesson,” Read said. “Going to two away games with a lot of energy. I know this week at practice we are going to work hard. This will be in the back of our head at practice, so I know we will be ready for them.”
