High number of devices creates connectivity issues
Connect to IllinoisNet_ Devices when using: - Gaming consoles - Televisions Connect to IllinoisNet - Mobile Phones - Laptops - Tablets
With 85,000 devices connected to the Wi-Fi on any given day, the University stands as one of the largest school-provided wireless networks in the nation. Such high usage numbers lead to many challenges, including obtaining a secure connection to the University’s wireless network and staying linked. Brian Mertz, chief communications officer for Technology Services, said that difficulty with wireless connections is not a new problem. “The start of every school year we see a dramatic rise in the number of devices that people are bringing to campus that have Wi-Fi connections,” Mertz said. “We just need to scale up our network to handle that.” This year stands out for an over-saturation of the network and a lack of properly configured devices, he said. Often, si mple config uration changes can change the speed and the strength of a connection. Mertz said many mobile phones stay attached to a wireless connection access point for as long as possible instead of switching to a new access point with a stronger connection. To combat this, a new network, “IllinoisNet_ Dev ic es,” was setup this year solely for students’ gaming consoles, televisions, and other non-laptop devices. Students should connect their computers and mobile devices instead to “IllinoisNet.” Issues occur across campus, but residence halls are uniquely affected since student devices make up most of the connections in the wireless network.

Big Ten schools to issue ‘no confidence’ vote in Iowa hire
ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR
The University of Iowa faculty senate’s vote of no confidence in its Board of Regents is gaining Big Ten support, and the Senate Executive Committee wants to join in. The committee u na ni mously ag reed Monday to send a resolution to the Academic Senate stating the senate should support a vote of no confidence in the University of Iowa’s faculty senate. The University of Iowa’s faculty senate issued a vote of no confidence in Iowa’s Board of Regents on Sept. 8 for hiring President Bruce
Harreld against their faculty search committee’s recommendation. The faculty search

Now, we at the local levels have to do that.” The Champaign-Urbana Public Health District adapted to the change by redirecting their STD specimens to the University of Illinois Reference Lab in Chicago instead of state labs. The health district had used the lab’s resources in the past, and Pryde said it has been a “relatively easy transition.” “We’re used to weathering these storms, and we’re able to,” she said. “It’s frustrating, and I get tired of doing it, but we’re prepared for it.

Technology Services added six support stations in laboratories across campus for students without easy access to their main help desk in the Digital Computer Lab building and set up booths in dining halls to help with immediate concerns. Technology Services reached out to all other Big Ten schools and the University of Chicago to compare networks. The University has more connected devices than many of the schools — Nebraska has roughly 13-18,000 devices —, but wireless connections are an issue across the board. “Each of us configures our network differently in terms of security, so some people have fewer problems than us, some have more problems,” Mertz said. “It is not anything uncommon in the Big Ten.” For many students, d i fficu lt y rema i ni ng connected to the wireless network interferes with

Pitt reconsiders Cosby’s honorary degree TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
The University of Pittsburgh committee that awards honorary degrees will consider whether to rescind one given to Bill Cosby in 2002. Pitt spokesman Ken Service confi rmed that the matter, fi rst reported by The Pitt News, is on the agenda for the group of faculty members that meets once a semester. Cosby, 78 , faces numerous accusations of sexual misconduct by dozens of women who have come forward over the past year. Some of the alleged misconduct dates back to the 1960s. He has never faced criminal charges over the allegations. “There has been a lot of news about his situation, and other universities taking action lately, and that’s prompted our consideration,� Service said. Cosby received the honor during Pitt-Johnstown’s 2002 graduation, where he was commencement speaker. If revoked, it would

Federal Perkins Loan Program not renewed BY SAMANTHA JONES TOAL STAFF WRITER
Carla Stelsel, freshman in LAS, took out a Perkins Loan in late May, but future students may not have the same opportunity. The Federal Perkins Loan Program, a needbased student loan offered by the U.S. Department of Education, expired on Oct. 1 when Congress didn’t renew the program, according to the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers’ website. Stelsel said she chose the loan option because it seemed like the smartest decision. “It has a lower interest rate, and it’s designed in a way where it’s forgiving if something goes wrong,” she said. “It’s better than third party loans or unsubsidized loans.” Stelsel will be able to renew her loan for up to fi ve years, but incoming college students in search of fi nancial aid may now have one less option. “The elimination of this program results in fewer loan funds being available for students and results
in less fl exibility for the Offi ce of Student Financial Aid to assist fi nancially-needy students,” said Dan Mann, director of the Office of Student Financial Aid. The Perkins Loan is the oldest federal student loan program in the country, according to the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers’ website. For the past 57 years, the loan has provided college students with a fi xed five-percent interest rate if the participant is at least a half-time student, according to a Congressional Record from Sept. 29. Through the program, undergraduate students were eligible to receive up to $5,500 per year, and graduate students were eligible to receive up to $8,000 per year in Perkins funds, according to the U.S. Department of Education. Students who received the loan were also given a nine-month grace period following graduation, during which they did not have to pay back the loan, according to the U.S. Department of Education.
Once repayment begins, recipients are given ten years to pay back their loans,according to Student Legal Service, a program of the Office of Dean of Students. “So if we have to have debt, it’s one of the best options for paying it back,” Stelsel said. Mann said there are 762 Perkins Loan recipients at the University who have been awarded a total of $1,562,376 in Federal Perkins Loans for the current school year. For fall 2015, a total of $781,568 was paid to these students. For the 2013-2014 school year, the program lent over $1.2 billion to 539,000 students nationwide, according to a Congressional Record for Sept. 29. “Most students are not awarded a Federal Perkins Loan and will not be impacted by the elimination of this program,” Mann said. Still, some protest its elimination. “I’m somebody that wholeheartedly believes that education is a universal right. If you’re not

going to pay for free education, you need to meet students half way,” said Brian Wilens, freshman in Engineering. “Taking away the program is a direct attack on students, especially people that don’t make ends meet in the fi rst place,” he said. While universities will no longer be able to authorize new loans through the
Perkins Loan program, students who received the loan before June 30 can renew it for up to five years, according to the U.S. Department of Education. Mann said there are continual changes to fi nancial aid programs. “In recent years, we’ve seen the introduction of the Federal SMART Grant, Federal Academ-
ic Competitiveness Grant and the Federal TEACH Grant and the elimination of the Federal SMART Grant, Federal Academic Competitiveness Grant and now the Federal Perkins Loan,” he said. “So, it is not uncommon for programs to be introduced and eliminated.”

both for people’s academic lives and personal lives here on campus,” he said. “We want to remove that
frustration as quickly as possible.”
“In retrospect, it is clear that the assurances of fairness and transparency in the hiring process given to us by the Regents, the chair of the search committee, the search fi rm, and the Faculty Senate leadership were untrue,” Tachau said. In a statement in response to the vote of no confidence, Board of Regents President Bruce Rastetter said that, despite his lack of administrative experience, Harreld’s background in business gives him the leadership
experience needed to improve the University. “We are disappointed that some of those stakeholders have decided to embrace the status quo of the past over opportunities for the future and focus their efforts on resistance to change instead of working together to make the University of Iowa even greater,” Rastetter said. If the Academic Senate agrees to sign onto the vote of no confidence in Iowa’s Board of Regents, it will become one of the last universities in the Big Ten
to support the vote. “We’re the last one, I believe, of those who attended (the Committee on Institutional Cooperation),” said Gay Miller, SEC chair. She emphasized the importance of signing onto the vote in a timely manner. “It ignores the weight of (the vote) to call it a minor manner,” said Nicholas Burbules, general university policy chair and professor in educational policy.
research lab is more timeeffective than state labs. With their help, the health district can get their results on chlamydia, HIV, gonorrhea and herpes quicker than before the change. Additionally, Carle Foundation Hospital will still provide STD testing. Laura Mabry, public relations specialist at Carle, said Carle does all of its own STD testing and does not send any specimens out for testing by the state. However, Pryde is concerned about other poorer,
nearby counties that might struggle without state support. She expects more people to travel from DeWitt, Piatt, Ford and Iroquois counties to the ChampaignUrbana district to receive STD tests. “I think we’ve seen that over the past years, that because other health depa r t ments a rou nd us don’t do the testing, undoubtedly we’ll see more people,” she said. Some students involved in healthcare disagree with the disadvantages
this change has put on other county health clinics. Samantha George, senior in LAS, works for Special Populations in McKinley’s Health Education Department. She said she feels poorer counties will be hindered by this change. “That’s probably the places that need the funding the most because they’re catering to people who probably don’t have the resources by themselves to get access to that,” George said.

He has since returned to his practice.
The wife of President Robert Mugabe said in August that she doesn’t hold Palmer responsible. A marksman and accomplished big-game hunter, Palmer reportedly paid $50,000 or so for the guided safari hunt outside of Hwange National Park. Authorities in Zimbabwe allege that the 13-yearold lion with the distinctive black mane was lured from the national park onto a neighboring farm.

If
An annoyance students can agree on
Yik Yak posts, angry tweets and gripes shared amongst students are any indication, University students are not satisfied with the University’s wireless Internet service. How many times have students panicked, turning their Wi-Fi on and off as the clock slowly ticks toward their deadline? How many times have students dumbfoundedly stared at their computer in horror after their quiz refreshes because the WiFi turned off? Most importantly, how many times have students had to watch, frustrated as Netflix refuses to load? While providing Internet service to around 85,000 devices each day is admit-
tedly no easy task, students shouldn’t be forced to live in constant fear that the slightest movement will interrupt their connection. UIUCnet Wireless and IllinoisNet are both wireless services we’re familiar with. They’re supposed to be accessible everywhere on campus. Technology Services has added six support stations in labs and booths in dining halls across campus for students without easy access to main help desks in the Digital Computer Lab. Technology Services also reached out to all other Big Ten schools to compare networks that have to provide for thousands of devices. This is sadly not an issue we are struggling with alone. Brian Mertz, chief communications officer for Technolo-
gy Services, said the issue is across the board for schools with large populations. The connections throughout campus continue to impact not just students, but visitors, faculty and staff at the University also face issues of connectivity, causing the concern to reach beyond just the campus community. Internet connection shouldn’t be a privilege on campus. Instead, with the University’s focus on online platforms such as Moodle and Compass, it should be treated as a necessity, a requirement for not only a student’s personal lives, but for their education as well. Compass plays a significant role in many classes as lectures, homework and even quizzes have moved online. The University has indi-
cated that it plans to continue its use of online teaching by offering more online classes during the traditional academic school year in addition with the summer and winter terms. But students can never truly benefit from the opportunities that this new style of learning offers if they can’t even access the course information effectively. The town hall that the Office of the Chief Information Officer held on Sept. 29 is a step in the right direction, along with the additional booths. But if the University plans to continue its expansion of its online presence, it therefore holds true that the University has a duty to ensure that all students are able to access these required resources.

Tourists climb the “Stairway to Heaven” in Montserrat, Spain. Landmarks and views such as this are of the few infinite benefits that come with studying abroad.
Just do it: Study abroad experiences worth cost, risk JASON SCHWARTZ Opinions columnist
“
To study abroad, or not study abroad?” For thousands of students on campus every year, this is the question they must ask themselves. Can they bear to leave Champaign-Urbana for a semester and miss out 12.5 percent of their college career? Well, I am here to make your decision easier and tell you the answer: Do it. Go abroad and don’t think twice about it; what you lose in time on campus you more than make up for in personal growth and adventure. I studied abroad in Barcelona in the spring of my junior year, and it could not have been a better experience. If you want an example of personal growth abroad, look no further than the writer of this article. I would not be writing for The Daily Illini if not for my time abroad. It was in Barcelona where I wrote a blog that allowed my friends and family to follow my travels in Europe. As a result of this, I found a passion for creative writing, and just like that, a new opinions columnist was born. That is what happens abroad; you discover new things about yourself by being in a new setting with new people. Our University offers more than 400 study abroad programs in over 60 countries, an impressive number more students should
take advantage of. After all, studying abroad has such an immense effect on personal growth; it truly puts an individual in an uncomfortable position for the first time in his or her life. It is at this point of uneasiness where you begin to adapt more to your surroundings by trying new things and going on new adventures. Sure, going to college can be unsettling, but most people at this university come from the Midwest area and previously knew a bunch of people before stepping foot on campus. At the very least, you are able speak the same language as most people on campus. Contrast this to going to a new country in a new continent that speaks a new language where you know few to no people. While the culture shock may be a scary feeling, this feeling can help prepare us later in life when we may have to take risks. Heather Besler, senior in LAS, also indicated she learned a lot while abroad. Besler studied in Barcelona last year and felt upon her return that she had become more confident and independent. “When you are able to travel across Europe without any guidance, you realize your capabilities have no limits, “ Besler stated. She also realized new hobbies while abroad such as trying new cuisines and learning Spanish, both activities that she is sure to take with her post-graduation. Peter Hancock, president and CEO of American
International Group, similarly illustrated post-graduation benefits, specifically in the job market. “Having the trust to reveal more about yourself to other people in a foreign culture is a big leap of faith,” Hancock said in a panel at the IIE Summit on Generation Study Abroad. “When you realize you can do that and feel safe and more connected, it gives people confidence to do it in a work setting.” The studying abroad experience teaches you how to work well in teams and discover what you’re truly passionate about, both qualities many hiring managers are looking for. While studying abroad may look good when applying to jobs, it is only one benefit. Instead, do it for the life-changing experience that comes with it. Putting a study abroad program on your resume is impressive, but it is the knowledge that you gain while abroad that truly makes an impact later in life. When you’re abroad, you are immersed in so many different types of experiences that you would almost never do in America. It is incredibly easy to fall in love with hiking up various mountains, photographing the finest art and landscape in the world or searching out new cuisines to dine on in each location visited. Whatever you think you know about yourself, throw it out while you are abroad and be open to new experiences.

ollege is not just fun and games; classes are hard and there is always homework to be done. Especially with ongoing midterms, there is often some serious studying that has to be done in order to achieve our desired grades. College students are usually so busy and involved in so many activities outside of schoolwork, that it can be hard to manage time effectively, leading many students — admittedly including myself — to cram for exams and pull all-nighters just to reach a feeling of preparedness. However, this is not actually the most effective way of studying, and can actually lead to a poorer performance on an exam, considering we forgo adequate amounts of sleep in the process. I’ve stayed up all night to study in the past. The next day I think I’m fine, because as a college student, I obviously believe I’m invincible, but in actuality, I do not feel my best or perform my best, and I can’t seem to focus on anything. Frequently, pulling an all-nighter to study is caused by procrastinating studying beforehand, leaving us with a need to make up for it all in one night. But studying a little
bit each day leading up to the test and hitting the material hard for a couple hours the night before (followed by a good night’s sleep) would lead to overall increased performance on exams. I’ve seen people come straight from the library to the exam room the next morning and they look like they are just about ready to pass out. These levels of exhaustion are clearly not helpful to our optimal test taking performance. Grades are important for all University students, and it would be far more beneficial if we got the recommended amount of sleep before exams, rather than abandoning it completely to cram in last minute information. Staying up all night is pretty terrible for your health. Losing even just one night of sleep a week reduces your cognitive function. This makes it way harder to focus on things and makes you more likely to zone out and daydream, or even spontaneously fall asleep. A study published in the Journal of Sleep Research titled “The Effect of Sleep Loss on Next Day Effort” found that students who lost a night of sleep before an exam had slower reaction times and “reduced effort,” meaning they did not try as hard as they normally would and were more likely to give up after a first try. Not to mention the lack of sleep in general causes a weaker immune system, weight gain and can even
alter hormone production in young adults, such as college students. On the whole, college students are not hoping to gain weight and be unhealthy, however a lot of times it just seems to “happen” to students. Lack of sleep can be a serious contributor to these negative side effects of the college lifestyle. If all students were getting enough sleep, they would be healthier and more prepared educationally as well as more happy and productive people — which would help everyone enjoy the more fun parts of college, as well. Students consistently trading sleep for studying should be concerned about the risks to their health, as well as their grade point average. It is crucial to remember that pulling an all-nighter does not always lead to a great exam score. Every student on this campus should desire to do well in his or her field, but staying up all night to study is just not the way to do it. College is already hard, so there is no reason to make it harder. Pulling all-nighters cannot only be bad for your GPA, but it is also bad for your health. While I know people are busy, this is actually a relatively simple fix. By procrastinating a little less and by sleeping a little more, we can maximize our college experiences.

Jared Leto and Mark Ruffalo made appearances this past weekend at New York Comic Con, both donning costumes to “hide out and enjoy,” as Ruffalo captioned his Facebook post. This, following singer St. Vincent’s stint as a waitress at her sister’s resaturant this past weekend, has made us reevaluate how plausible Hannah Montana situations really are. Maybe there are famous people attending our university right now and the disguises are more ubiquitous than we would think.
DI DENIED WHY YOU GOTTA BE SO MEAN? Rumors about Taylor Swift’s relationship status have been swirling around the past two days as Calvin Harris was reportedly photographed exiting a “Thai massage parlor” in September (whatever that means). Naturally, conversations about the potential break-up have made a mockery of Swift’s potential new album material. Why chastise Harris for potential infidelities when you can make Taylor Swift the butt of a joke? While Harris denied the rumors, we’re still pretty upset over the unfair coverage. We’ll always support you, T-Swift. Just shake off the haters.

Q&A: Spielberg, Hanks discuss geopolitics, ‘Bridge of Spies’ BY REBECCA KEEGAN TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
NEW YORK — Steven Spielberg’s latest film, the Cold War drama “Bridge of Spies,” which opens Oct. 16, unites him with his “Saving Private Ryan” star, Tom Hanks, and introduces a new actor to his stable. Englishman Mark Rylance, who is best known for his stage work and performance as Thomas Cromwell in the BBC miniseries “Wolf Hall,” will also star in Spielberg’s next film, “The BFG.” In the true story, from a script by Matt Charman and Joel and Ethan Coen, Hanks plays Brooklyn insurance lawyer James Donovan, who was assigned the thankless task of defending Soviet spy Rudolf Abel (Rylance) in the 1950s and became ensnared in a larger geopolitical plot. In some ways, this focus on lawyering and the art of deal-making feels like a companion piece to the director’s study of messy democracy in “Lincoln.” During the New York Film Festival earlier this month, Spielberg, Hanks and Rylance spoke with The Times about the parallels between Cold War paranoia and contemporary fears, the shifting notions of heroism on screen and the impact of seismic changes to their
business. Q: What was your experience of the Cold War as a child? Tom Hanks: Every day we studied it. Every day it was in the papers. There was this concept that World War III was inevitable and it was going to be us versus them. It was in “Twilight Zone” episodes, “Star Trek.” There was always this dark cloud that was slowly coming toward us. Q: There was an earlier attempt to tell this story. Steven Spielberg: In 1964 or ‘65, when it was better known and closer to the incident. Gregory Peck knew about this story and had approached MGM and asked them to finance a screenplay about the spy swap, and then Peck sent the script to Alec Guinness and got him to agree to play Abel. MGM decided not to go ahead and make the picture because of the tension. Q: Mark, you’re playing a Soviet spy. Did you think of him as a good guy or a bad guy? Mark Rylance: I try to avoid judging the characters I play, even an out-and-out bad guy like Richard III. I just try to figure out what they need and play that. I don’t know exactly what he was doing. I didn’t set out
to make him charming. I think being charming was the last thing he’d be concerned about. I was struck that when he was a painter he didn’t just put up a front of being a painter, he tried to make himself a better painter. He had an interest in the craft and the art. He had a culture to him. Q: You could have made a version of this film focused on the spy craft, but instead you chose to focus on an attorney. How come? Spielberg: The core relationship between James Donovan and Rudolf Abel was for me the way into the story, not the events of the Cold War, not the spy craft of opening quarters and finding the parchment inside. That was fun to do in the one scene we actually shot. But for me it was a man standing on his principles to defend an enemy of everything we deemed sacred. He was being given a chance to demonstrate the American justice system at a time when anything associated with communism and the red menace was despicable to everyday Americans ... Donovan wanted to show that everybody, even an alien caught breaking the law in this country, deserves the same defense an American would get.

Renewable energy surges as drilling, mining falters in US BY SEAN COCKERHAM TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
WASHINGTON — While the production of fossil fuels drops in the United States, solar and wind power is skyrocketing as technology and cheaper financing drive down the costs. “In the U.S., we’ve known that wind energy can be cheaper than (natural) gas in some states, but solar is now inching toward that same milestone,” said Jacqueline Lilinshtein, U.S. analyst for Bloomberg New Energy Finance, a firm that advises industry clients on energy issues. Texas leads the U.S. in wind power, with about 10 percent of its power from wind. California, Nevada and North Carolina are the nation’s top solar states and dominate the market. The federal government expects a surge in renewable energy in the coming year, especially as solar expands from its traditional base of home rooftop panels to major utility-scale production. “U.S. solar and wind power generating capacity is expected to see double digit growth in 2016,” said Adam Sieminski, the head of the U.S. Energy Information Administration. This comes as America’s fracking boom is starting to falter. The crash in oil prices is shrinking the profits for drillers. Estimated U.S.
crude oil production dropped by 120,000 barrels a day last month and is forecast to keep going down for most of the coming year at least. Coal continues its downward spiral. Even coal areas that weathered past hard times, such as Indiana and Western Kentucky, are having a tough year, and major coal companies are going bankrupt. “Production is expected to decrease in all coal-producing regions in 2015, with the largest decline on a percentage basis occurring in the Appalachian region,” according to the Department of Energy. Costs of generating electricity from coal and natural gas are rising as renewables penetrate the market and fossil fuel plants run less, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance. In the meantime, the cost of wind and solar continued to go down this year, signaling “a significant shift in the generating cost comparison between renewable energy and fossil fuels.” “Onshore wind and solar are both now much more competitive against the established generation technologies than would have seemed possible only five or 10 years ago,” said Luke Mills, an energy economics analyst for Bloomberg New Energy Finance. The average U.S. price of
coal and natural gas power is still cheaper than renewables at $65 a megawatthour, compared with wind at $80 and photovoltaic solar — generating electricity from sunlight — at $107. But that gap is shrinking, and renewable costs can be even lower with federal subsidies. Ethan Zindler, head of policy analysis for Bloomberg New Energy Finance, said he saw a solar power purchase agreement in Texas for $50 per megawatt-hour. “There are definitely markets where solar is competitive,” Zindler said. Renewables could run into problems, though, as lawmakers push back against helping the industry. The federal solar tax credit is set to expire in 2016 unless Congress renews it. In North Carolina, which has emerged as a national leader in solar power, the legislature is ending its state renewable energy tax credit at the end of the year. There’s also debate in Congress over the wind tax credit, which allows a reduction in tax payments for the first 10 years of a project. Some lawmakers are targeting the incentive for extinction, but American Wind Energy Association CEO Tom Kiernan said he’s optimistic. “The support we have on Capitol Hill is significant and enduring,” Kiernan said.

In Illinois, there’s usually nothing special about a cornfield. But in Rantoul, 10 acres of corn draw crowds every year. Hardy’s Reindeer Ranch boasts one of the best, largest corn mazes in the area. The busiest time of the season is September through November when the maze is open, though the ranch is open from August until the end of December. “This is kind of our claim to fame here,” said owner Mark Hardy about the corn maze. “It hasn’t lost its popularity.” The corn maze has had 14 different designs over the past 17 years. This year it’s a flying eagle with exploding fireworks, which was chosen to honor the military, Mark said. There are eight checkpoints throughout the maze, each one themed like different aspects of the World War II-era military effort, including the four branches, Rosie the Riveter and the Tuskegee “Red Tails.” Mark said the Octave Chanute Air Museum donated the photos that decorate the entrance of the maze. “This year’s design was big with lots of dead ends to get lost in! At least it felt that way,” said Carly Simonaitis, vice president of October Lovers and junior in AHS, in an email. When he is in the maze, Mark takes time to clear the paths of fallen corn and picks up discarded trash. Even though he created the maze, he still gets lost when trying to navigate the 6-foot-tall stalks. He also tries to direct visitors to the checkpoints and exit. “Most of the time, people don’t want help,” he said. It typically takes about a few hours to finish the maze, he said, though some can finish it in about 30 minutes. The maze is the main draw for students, Mark said. “It’s always been an October Lovers tradition to go to Hardy’s,” Simonaitis said. Last Thursday, the club brought 300 people to the ranch, Mark said. “The groups we have out here are very nice. They’re respectful and they don’t tear up my place,” he said. Many of the students get another surprise when they get to the ranch. “Most of them don’t realize we have actual reindeer here,” Hardy said. “They think it’s just a gimmick.” Simonaitis said she never expects the reindeer, even though it’s implicit in the name. “People are always surprised about the reindeer. Perhaps even more so because it’s tucked behind
the little gift shop there,” she said. “Everyone gets a rise out of touching the antlers. They really do feel strange — sturdy but almost hollow.” Mark said many of the visitors have never seen a real reindeer before they encounter the herd of 12. “We put them on an airline and flew them out here,” said Julie Hardy, Mark’s wife. They keep the shipping container as a decoration in the reindeer pasture. The reindeer originally came from Alaska, Wisconsin or Michigan, but “the deer you see here have been born on my farm,” Julie said. Visitors can go on reindeer tours where they can pet the reindeer, feed them graham crackers and do the “reindeer kiss” — they hold a graham cracker in their mouth and the reindeer eats up to their lips so it looks like a kiss. Without Julie, the ranch as it is now would not exist. “She wanted the shop and the reindeer,” Mark said. “She got the shop and the reindeer.” The ranch started as a Christmas tree farm before Mark and Julie met 22 years ago. They added fall-themed attractions, including the corn maze, a few years later. The fall attractions also include peddle cars and a paintball range decorated like a gas station. “I wanted a filling station, so I had to find a way to make it pay,” Mark said. All of the buildings on the ranch, including the Hardys’ home, were built by Mark and his family. Mark also does all of the landscaping on the property. “That’s my favorite thing to do here,” he said. “Anywhere I can find to put flowers, I put flowers.” Mark and Julie run everything around the ranch and like to keep the business close to the community. “We’ve had people who met in the maze and come back here and get married,” Mark said. The business is in a niche market, but the foundation of the ranch is classic. “What we are is small farmers and we have to make a living off a small piece of land,” Mark said. “We’re not getting rich at it, but we make a living.” The ranch draws busloads of people during the season, with 10,000 people coming for the maze alone, Mark said. “I love Hardy’s Reindeer Ranch,” Simonaitis said. “Maybe it’s the maze or maybe it’s the warm apple cider, but it’s my favorite part of the autumnal season.”

NOTEBOOK
Rest, recovery necessary for Illini during bye week BY CHARLOTTE CARROLL STAFF WRITER
When Geronimo Allison went down during the Illini’s fi nal drive Saturday after attempting to catch a Wes Lunt pass, the Illinois football team’s injury issues reared their ugly head once more. The team had so many players unavailable that head coach Bill Cubit had some defensive players playing offense. At certain points, Lunt was surprised that so many were in the game. “I didn’t realize all those guys (played) until you (media) mentioned it,” Lunt said. “(V’Angelo) Bentley, we worked with in camp and Caleb Day we kind of threw him in the mix this week just for an emergency.” That emergency preparation proved to be necessary, and going into the bye week, Cubit said the team’s greatest focus will be to get healthy and rest after its 29-20 loss to Iowa at Kinnick Stadium. Illinois needs that rest more than ever with much of its offense on the injury list. The Illini have had to resort to using younger players as of late, but they’re starting to take a beating, too. Freshman running back
Ke’Shawn Vaughn was temporarily knocked out of Saturday’s game in the fourth quarter and fumbled on his fi rst play back on the field. But Cubit considered the fumble the least of his worries. “If you get down on the kid at that point there, you end up losing them,” Cubit said. “You can’t afford to lose them. We don’t have that many playmakers right now because of injuries.” When Vaughn and Allison were sidelined, the Illini’s depth issue was evident. Wide receivers Mike Dudek and Justin Hardee are still out with injuries: Dudek tore his ACL in practice in the spring, while Hardee broke his foot during the offseason. The running game is also short and was down to one running back — Henry Enyenihi — when Vaughn went down. Starter Josh Ferguson is sidelined with a shoulder injury he suffered in Week Five against Nebraska. Running backs Dre Brown and Reggie Corbin are both out for the season due to injuries. Short-handed at both running back and in the receiving corps, the bye week will give Illinois a chance to refresh.
The coaches and players have said the team would like to have players back in action against Wisconsin, especially Allison. “He’s a really good guy to have lead this receiving group that’s young,” Lunt said. “We just need him here.”
Upping the tempo
Illinois picked up its pace after struggling offensively in the fi rst quarter. “When our offense is stalling out, we go to that fast tempo,” Lunt said. “Their d-line is really good and we were trying to tire them out a little bit.” The tempo forced the Hawkeyes to set faster, giving the Illini an edge at fi rst. In the end, however, it was the Illini who tired out. Iowa fi nished with 478 total yards — 200 passing and 278 rushing — and held possession 10 minutes longer than Illinois. The Illini fi nished with 368 yards. But Cubit was proud of his team’s performance. “When the opposing coach comes in and tells you how hard your kids played, I’ll take that,” Cubit said.

A conversation with an Illini: Charlie Naso KEVIN MCCARTHY Illini columnist
I
llini relief pitcher Charlie “Chuck” Naso is a savage. This week I sat down with the right-hander to talk about the team’s magical 2015 season, meeting David Price and my chances at touching his heater. Kevin McCarthy: I heard you guys were pretty good last season. How fun was that? Charlie Naso: Last year was pretty surreal. When we were going through the streak, we didn’t relish the moment because we were just living in that moment at that time. KM: During the 28-game winning streak, what were conversations like between teammates? Did you talk about it or is there some unwritten baseball rule that doesn’t allow you to? CN: We were definitely talking about the streak. It got to the point where we were so cocky about it that we just knew we were going to win the game. There were some superstitions, too — everyone had long hair. Usually (Manager) Dan (Hartleb) doesn’t let guys have facial hair, so he let some stuff slide during it. As soon as we lost, he’s like, “Get haircuts and shave your faces.” Then, the dream was over. KM: No facial hair — are you guys the New York Yankees? CN: We just want to look cleancut and presentable. It’s not as much about on the field, we just want to represent the team in a good (way). KM: I guess I won’t be able to make the team any time soon then with my hair. Hartleb and I will have to talk. Anyway, you guys lost in the super regional to the defending national champions. How did it feel knowing that you could compete with the best? CN: We played them tough. In the end, they just had more experience on that big of a stage. In the beginning of the year, our team went on a trip to the Dominican Republic and Vanderbilt was on our flight. We played them in sand volleyball down there — they beat us in that, too. KM: How’s your sand volleyball game? CN: I’m pretty brutal — got the credit card hops. KM: Vanderbilt Alum and Toronto Blue Jays ace David Price was in attendance for last year’s series against Vanderbilt. What was it like
to see him out there? CN: He was a really genuine and nice dude. He told us he wanted to go play for the Cubs when he hit freeagency, which was tough to hear as a die-hard Chicago White Sox fan. KM: What was it like to play with Tyler Jay? CN: Ty’s real cool. It was just amazing to watch him pitch last year. I just lose words when I talk about his pitching — it’s just gross. Guys had no chance against him. As far as Ty as a person, he’s just super humble. KM: How did it hit you when he got drafted sixth overall? CN: We were in the bullpen during the Vanderbilt game. His dad kept taking calls, and then comes up to me and says, “You’re going to be really happy,” because he thought Jay was going be taken by the White Sox with the eighth pick. So we went into the clubhouse to watch it on

TV, and then the Twins we’re on the clock. Then, I saw his phone go off. I was pretty disappointed that he went to a division rival. But for real, it gave me goose bumps. When he was a freshman he used to sleep on my couch. Now, he’s a first round draft pick. KM: How many years will we be watching him play in the bigs? CN: You’ll be watching him for a while. He’s special. KM: What’s your favorite memory from your time here at Illinois? CN: The whole 28-game-win streak was nuts. We’d get on the bus and be singing and dancing to “Peanut Butter and Jelly” by Galantis. KM: Did Hartleb get in on those dance parties? CN: No. He had some choice words every time he’d see us dancing. KM: What makes him such a good manager? CN: At first, you think he’s against you, but then you realize he’s tough on you because he wants to see you
do better. I think every guy that comes into this program leaves a much better man than when they came in because of him. KM: Tell me a couple of bullpen stories. CN: There was a video of us last year at Penn State where we wouldn’t use our hands to get into the bullpen. So guys were falling over into the bullpen live on Big Ten Network. We usually send a kid in the bathroom for a full inning if we need some offense. Just lock him in there and make him sweat it out until the inning is over. You get bored out there sometimes. KM: I was told by former Daily Illini employee, Sam Sherman, to ask you about “savages.” CN: In the beginning of the season we had “savage Sunday.” We weren’t allowing ourselves to say the word savage until Sunday. When the clock hit midnight, everyone would start texting and snap chatting about savage Sunday. We would just go nuts. You couldn’t say the s-word until Sunday or you’d get screamed at. KM: You’re about to head into a fight. You can bring two teammates, armed with baseball bats, who do you take? CN: Pat (McInerney) and Cody Sedlock. Actually no, I’ll take Quentin Sefcik over Pat Mac. I want you to quote this on there, “Quentin Sefcik is a savage.” He is a savage with everything he does. He’s crazy. He’s a guy I want on my side. KM: So you three vs. three Pat McInerneys — who wins? CN: Three Pat McInerneys? That’s a girthy fight. The Pat Macs might prevail in that situation. I’m gonna get beat up pretty quickly by one of him, so then it’s three on two and that’s tough. Quentin Sefcik is a dark horse though — he might just shock the world. KM: Can I try to hit a fastball of yours at some point? CN: Yeah, we can make that happen. You’ll probably just smoke it out of the park the way I’m pitching right now. Do you have any experience? KM: I mean I stopped playing in eighth grade so I think you might be alright. CN: I guess I might scoot a few by you then. But with this old arm, I need like seven layers of Icy-Hot and 20 Aleve before it gets going.

NOTEBOOK
Return home doesn’t stop Illini losing streak BY ELI SCHWADRON STAFF WRITER
Illinois volleyball head coach Kevin Hambly was confident his team would rebound from back-to-back losses to Wisconsin and Minnesota over the final weekend of September. He felt the return to Huff Hall after over a month on the road would re-energize the Illini. But No. 16 Illinois (11-6) continued its losing streak, which now stands at four, in home matches over the weekend versus No. 5 Penn State (15-2) and No. 7 Ohio State (16-2). Against the Nittany Lions in Friday night’s annual “IlliNOISE” match, the Illini fell in four sets to the defending national champions, who were led by middle blocker Haleigh Washington (11 kills, seven blocks) and outside hitters Megan Courtney (18 kills, 19 digs, .304 hitting percentage) and Aiyana Whitney (16 kills, .419 hitting percentage). Though the Illini were overmatched, Hambly thought they showed heart and grit in the final two sets. “It was good to see them invested emotionally,” Hambly said. “You can invest your body, but if you’re not invested emotionally, you’re not scrapping, you’re not fighting … you’re not making those plays.” Illinois had won 12 of its last 15 matchups with Ohio State prior to Satur-
day, when Hambly’s team dropped another match in four sets. Compared to the fight they showed against the Nittany Lions the previous night, the Illini played less inspired against the Buckeyes. “We had a lot less heart and will (against Ohio State). That was really the big thing that we were lacking, and that shows up in our play,” Jocelynn Birks said. “(The losing streak) is affecting us … Being at home, we wanted to gain some confidence back and

get the win. (Friday against Penn State), we were able to figure some things out. It’s just about learning how to get that back again and maintain.”
Illini look to get defense back on track
Hambly has stressed the importance of team defense
throughout the first half of the season. As of late, his team has struggled to stop opposing Big Ten offenses “Our team is priding itself on being great defensively,” Hambly said. “I have always said and I believe it: you reveal your soul in your defense. I say that in football and basketball. It’s definitely that way in volleyball. We’ve lost that, and we have to get that back.” In an attempt to do just that, Hambly shook up his starting lineup prior to Saturday’s tilt with the Buckeyes. After a solid match against Penn State, defensive specialist Julia Conard got the nod against Ohio State in place of Danielle Davis. Conard finished with 16 digs against the Buckeyes. The Illini have lost four straight matches to Top-15 opponents, but their schedule gets easier in the coming weeks. “It was a tough stretch. We will get some more home matches, and play some teams that aren’t ranked in the top 15, then we can ride it out a little bit,” Hambly said. “I still believe that we have the talent and ability to be a top 15 team, but we’re not playing like one right now.”

Nov. 23, 2002. Sophomore setter Taylor Tashima tallied a matchhigh 52 assists in the win. She also finished with 10 digs. Penn State’s other loss came against Nebraska at
home on Oct. 2. The Nittany Lions are ranked No. 5 in the country, but they seem to have lost a step in the always-competitive Big Ten.

Flaws breaks dry spell in Michigan weekend BY MATT GERTSMEIER STAFF WRITER
In the Illinois soccer team’s 1-1 tie with Michigan State on Friday, Jannelle Flaws, Illinois’ career goalscoring leader, did something she hadn’t done in over a month – score a goal. The senior drilled a lastsecond penalty kick after Kara Marbury was fouled in the penalty box. Flaws’ goal took the Illini (8-3-3) into overtime with the Spartans. Before Friday’s game, Flaws’ had not found the back of the net since Illinois’ 1-0 win over Portland on Sept. 6. Flaws has been battling chronic plantar fasciitis this season, which has noticeably affected her play. Illini head coach Janet Rayfield believes Flaws’ health is starting to improve, which resulted in her scoring Friday. “Any great athlete can be streaky,” Rayfield said. “I think certainly with her foot feeling better her mobility is getting a little bit better day to day.” Despite breaking the dry spell, Flaws still said she feels she still missed a lot of scoring chances this weekend and has yet to get back in a groove. “It felt good, it was nice to get a goal,” Flaws said. “There were plenty of opportunities this weekend I probably should have put
more away so I wouldn’t say I’m quite out of my rut yet, but it was nice to get one.”
More overtime for Illinois
Six members of the Illinois soccer team have eclipsed 1,000 minutes over the team’s 14 games thus far. The extra minutes have been adding up after Illinois played its third straight double overtime game against Michigan State on Friday. Friday’s 1-1 tie with the Spartans was the team’s fourth double overtime game of the season. The Illini’s overall overtime record is 1-0-3. Every overtime match has been against a Big Ten opponent. Ties result in one point for each team, wins result in three points to the winner. Thus, if Illinois had won its three tie games, it would have been awarded nine points instead of three. The six extra points would put the Illini in fifth place in the Big Ten standings, rather than eighth. “(Tying) is certainly better than coming out of a game with zero points, but it’s a difference between three points and one point,” Rayfield said. “A result where you get a point is certainly better than a result where you get zero and they get three.” Rayfield said in order for Illinois to start finishing overtime periods with wins,
the team needs to play with more composure and not get caught up in the physical components of matches.
Wheatley hits season high Goalkeeper Claire Wheatley had her work cut out for her in Friday’s match versus Michigan State. The junior goalkeeper recorded a season-high nine saves in the Saturday’s game with the Spartans. Five of her nine saves came in the first half of play, where the Spartans had three corner-kick attempts. Michigan State rattled off 17 total shots on the night. Sunday’s 3-1 loss to Michigan was a much different scenario. The Wolverines controlled possession for the majority of the game, taking 22 shots compared to the Illini’s seven. Wheatley managed to record six saves against Michigan, but allowed three goals. Rayfield said allowing Michigan to control the ball for most of the game put a lot of pressure on the defense and Wheatley. “We just never really got a hold of the game in order to get the ball out of our end,” Rayfield said. “We were defending a lot and I think that wears you down.”

Last week marked the beginning of the National Hockey League’s regular season: firing the starting gun for this year’s 30-team race to hoist Lord Stanley’s Cup. Thursday’s overtime matchup between the Philadelphia Flyers and the Tampa Bay Lightning, however, showed fans how this season’s race will follow a slightly different course. After a 2-2 score in regulation, only three men — not the usual four — took the ice for each team in the five-minute overtime period. “I watched highlights of the game the other night, and it was just exciting hockey,” Illini left wing Eric Cruickshank said. “The 3-on-3 idea is sweet. There was breakaway after breakaway, back- a ndforth, constant scoring chances – it was fun to watch.” Tampa Bay won the game 3-2 after defenseman Jason Garrison scored a breakaway goal 2:17 into extra time, but the implications of the game’s new 3-on-3 regular season overtime format span much more than just the teams’ records. If this new variation of play is well received, fans could expect to see these rule changes enacted in collegiate hockey sometime in the near future. “Not everything is the
same for the NHL and NCAA,” said head coach Nick Fabbrini. “It’s a very similar rulebook, but obviously there’s going to be some differences. However, I believe they try to keep the two leagues as close as possible.” The ACHA — Illinois’ league — follows the NCAA rule book. Adopted last season by the lower-level American Hockey League, these rule
decided in overtime, a 76.3 percent rate. In the 2013-14 season, with a 4-on-4 overtime, 35.3 percent of the overtime games in the AHL were decided before the shootout. In the 2013-14 NHL regular season, 307 games extended past regulation with 128 decided in overtime and 179 in the shootout. The new NHL format involves 3-on-3 play for five sudden-death minutes, and if no goal is scored in overtime, the game goes into a three-round shootout as in years prior. Although, if a penalty occurs during overtime or is carried over from regulation, instead of taking a player away from the panelized team, a player is added to the opposing team. Collegiate hockey has not lagged far behind the NHL in rule changes, but currently, collegiate hockey features a 5-on-5 overtime with an optional shootout. However, in 2012, the NCAA created an option to allow for four-on-four overtime for conferences or coaches of nonconferences matchups to decide on a game-by-game basis, although no conference has officially adopted this format. “It’s weird — usually they try things like this at lower levels like the NCAA then bring it to the NHL,” Cruickshank said. “But I think now that they’ve seen the excitement it brings to the fans, I definitely think its something that could be initiated into the NCAA sometime soon.”

changes have already proven effective in reduced the occurrence of one of hockey’s signature events: the shootout. “It’s fun for fans to get to see a one-on-one situation with a player and goalie,” Cruickshank said. “Some teams may be better geared toward shootouts, but I think 3-on-3 hockey creates a similar amount of breakaway, oneon-one goals. In the AHL last season, with the 3-on-3 overtime format, 224 games were extended to overtime. Of those 224 games, 171 were
