Making a home in C-U The Muslim experience in Central Illinois BY ABRAR AL-HEETI SUPPLEMENTS EDITOR

Editor’s note: The author of this story is an active member of the Central Illinois Mosque and Islamic Center, and has professional relationships with the sources contacted. We felt the need to be transparent with the context surrounding this piece. To read the author’s experiences writing this story, visit dailyillini.com. The red metal door subtly squeaks as hundreds of congregants flow in and out. In the foyer, the shelves are packed with shoes. Pink light-up sneakers are stacked next to brown leath-

Backpacks and purses line the entryway past the foyer as students stream in for weekly services between classes, doctors come clad in scrubs during their lunch breaks and local restaurant owners take a break from business to spend an hour in worship. It’s a typical Friday scene at the Central Illinois Mosque and Islamic Center. Every person lining the dark blue rows of carpet in the prayer hall is more than just a member of the Urbana mosque. They are the lawyers, engineers, businessmen, professors,

bus drivers, secretaries, accountants, mothers and teachers of the community. *** It’s easy to overlook the beige, gated mosque sandwiched between apartment complexes and a gas station on Lincoln and Springfield avenues. Across the street, a rising new apartment structure sits on the former site of a few old houses, reflecting a growing city. But the Central Illinois Mosque and Islamic Center, or CIMIC, is growing, too. The Friday congregation, which numbers at around 300 people, can no longer fit inside the prayer hall.

Many people sit in the surrounding multipurpose area to listen to the sermon. A second prayer service was added a few years ago to help solve the problem, and an expansion project involving the construction of an annex across the street is in the works.

IN BETWEEN WORLDS The story of UI’s only deaf student

BY ALICE SMELYANSKY FEATURES EDITOR

Guadalupe Pineda grew up speaking two languages — English and a secret one. Her secret language isn’t exactly a mystery for others to solve. In fact, there are roughly 70 million people who speak it as a first language or mother tongue. But at the University, Guadalupe, a junior in LAS, has far fewer people to speak her secret language with. She is

the only deaf student on a campus of approximately 40,000, and not too many other students are familiar with English sign language. Just how she speaks two first languages, Guadalupe lives on the border of two worlds. In the hearing world, she communicates with her mother and eight-year-old sister, her friends at the University who don’t sign and the majority of people who she encounters on a day-to-day basis. In the deaf world, she speaks in her secret language with friends, works at a deaf church in Chicago and competes in Miss & Mister Deaf International. She knew coming to a hearing school would be difficult, but she didn’t expect it to be this difficult. “I thought I was going to graduate here and not worry about the challenges,” she said. “But now, I’m worried about the challenges and if I’m willing to take the risk, too.” The small battery-operated molds in her ears are her survival kit. Without her hearing aids, Guadalupe couldn’t live in both worlds.

Year driven by breaking news

to take them off as a child so she wouldn’t hear her mother’s voice yelling at her when they argued. At around first grade, Guadalupe learned sign language in school. “She was all over the place,” Guerrero said. “She never went to her home school. … I’m losing track of all the different places.” Guadalupe’s hometowns changed throughout the Chicagoland area. But many didn’t offer a program for deaf students. For high school, Guadalupe took a 45-minute bus ride to Hinsdale South High School, the closest, and best, school that offered a program for deaf students. It was only when Guadalupe was in middle school did she and her mother discover Illinois School for the Deaf, the only school in Illinois to provide residential programming for students who are hard of hearing or deaf. Though she later attended summer camp at the school in Jacksonville, Illinois, her mother didn’t want her at a school where she would only see her on the weekends. “How can parents just come and leave their 5-year-old there?” Guerrero questioned. “And not see her for the whole week or maybe two weeks?” But when Guadalupe attended high school, she was one of 85 deaf students at Hinsdale South. It was the perfect scenario for her — a mainstream education with a deaf program. And she misses it. “I am better in a (study) group,” she said. “But if it’s hearing, I get lost. What am I going to learn from that? With deaf people I can sign. I don’t get lost.”

Adapting in a hearing world When she was 18 months old, Guadalupe received her first pair of hearing aids. “I remember I took her for the first time to Mexico and before we left, I started noticing she would take (the hearing aids) off and throw them on the floor because she was not used to hearing anything loud,” Hortencia Guerrero, Guadalupe’s mother, said. “So I’m like ‘Wow, these hearing aids are going to have to stay here, because the last thing I need is her to lose them there.’” Guadalupe gradually adjusted to the hearing aids, though she admits she used

MEGAN JONES Editor-in-chief

In

my opening column as editor-in-chief, I asked The Daily Illini to expand our online presence. In August, I was sitting on a boat with my family, enjoying a calm relaxing day of fishing in northern Wisconsin. Suddenly, I received a text message with the DI’s worst nightmare regarding being prepared for breaking news: Phyllis Wise resigned as chancellor from the University. My beagle began barking, I began rushing around the boat trying to fi nd cell phone signal rocking all of the poles, as both of my parents stared at me with the blank look of “Who is Phyllis Wise?” Thanks to the University for having one of the most notable years in history for breaking news, we expanded our presence by continually breaking stories online. From coverage of Salaita to a complete overhaul in all top University administrator positions and an athletics department plagued with scandal — boy, did we have fun this year. We have been quoted by The New York Times four times. But none of that would have happened without the hard working journalists who spend each day at the DI. Some of the best work we did was when we were all involved and working together as a team, and I think this is part of the reason why we excelled at covering breaking news this year. While the stories we told will always stay with me, my favorite ones to tell will be the stories of us editors in the newsroom at 11 p.m., striving to create the best product possible. We have met some of their best friends at the DI, and it helps on a campus of 40,000 students to have one place you can go that’ll feel like home. Thank you to all the editors who helped play a part in this year. It wouldn’t have been possible without you, and we learned the most about journalism from each other. By 5 p.m. Friday, I will no longer be the editor-in-chief of The Daily Illini. Masaki Sugimoto is taking over and will continue the charge even further into this ever-so-changing industry. I’m heading back to the trenches as a beat reporter covering UI administration. Hopefully I’ll manage to write a few good stories next year that catch your eye, but what I will miss the most is working side-by-side with all the amazing editors here at the DI. Thank you for reading.

A language barrier There’s one subject that Guadalupe doesn’t have to worry about struggling in. In Susan Minnye Dramin Weiss’ American Sign Language classes, Guadalupe can practice what she once considered her secret language. “Everybody is so enthusiastic about communicating with her and they’re talking, and so I

UIPD investigates infant death DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT

The University of Illinois Police Department is investigating the death of a newborn baby discovered on campus Sunday evening. According to a press release from the department, UIPD officers were dispatched to Bousfield Hall, 1214 First St., around 5 p.m. Sunday to check on a student who had been sick in the bathroom for several hours. The student told officers she had the stomach flu and did not need help. After receiving more information, officers returned to Bousfield Hall around 7:30 p.m. to investigate and found evidence suggesting a child may have been born in the bathroom. Pat Wade, UIPD spokesman, said the department could not reveal what prompted them to return to the hall. Less than an hour later, officers located the student and took her to the University’s Public Safety Building where, in a conversation with police, the student revealed she had given birth earlier Sunday. The male infant was then found deceased in the backpack the student was carrying. The UIPD is working with the Champaign County State’s Attorney as well as the Champaign County Coroner to gather information, investigate the incident and determine how to proceed. The press release stated an autopsy was scheduled for Tuesday morning and a decision on criminal matters will be made when

Board of Trustees approves new deal BY SAMANTHA JONES TOAL STAFF WRITER

The University of Illinois Board of Trustees approved a new contract aimed to attract more minority and femaleowned businesses as vendors Wednesday. Under the approved purchasing initiative, 28 minority- and female-owned companies will receive three-year contracts to provide information technology services on the University’s three campuses. The contracts goes into effect July 1, 2016. “I am proud of our leadership on this important issue and the opportunities we are providing for minority and female-owned companies to grow and prosper through their new relationships with the University and additional contracts that their track record of success will foster,”

President Timothy Killeen said in a University news release. The “sheltered market” initiative allows certain state contracts to be set aside specifically for businesses owned by minorities, females and people with disabilities. It was established after an Illinois Business Enterprise Program Council disparity study found that sectors of the IT and telecommunications industry were being unfairly excluded from state business. According to the release, the companies will collectively be paid up to $30 million per year over the course of the threeyear contracts. The board also approved the construction of the first-ever student union on the Springfield campus. The new building will cost $21.7 million and is scheduled for completion by

Campaign finance sparks debate BY CLAIRE TEXTOR STAFF WRITER

Though campaign funding is usually a bigger issue in national elections, it can come into play in campus elections too. Campaign spending was a hot button topic in this year’s student senate elections because of suspicious outside partisan funding. Turning Point USA is a partisan organization that is backed by Gov. Bruce Rauner and aimed at supporting student candidates running in collegiate student elections who identify as republicans. Student senators said the organization offered students running for the senate $250 each for campaign funds. None of the candidates who made it to the University’s referendum ballot were offered endorsements from Turning Point USA. “The student senate has taken some pretty anti-Rauner stances, especially on MAP grants and higher education funding,” said Tara Chattoraj, sophomore in LAS. The Campus Student Election Commission, CSEC, bylaws are unclear as to whether outside organizations are allowed to contribute to students’ campaign funds. “Some areas say that nonpersons are not allowed to give money and in other places it says that non-persons are allowed to give money,” Chattoraj said. “It would be hard for them to do anything about it if there was money coming from organizations.” Using partisan money raises concerns given the non-partisan position of the ISS. “A lot of students feel that

COMMUNITY er, moved here in 1974, around 27 people attended the Friday prayers. “We knew (early on) the community would grow, but we never knew it would be this big,” Jassim said. The Muslim community’s expansion is happening amidst national battles on issues of race, religion and acceptance in a post-9/11 world. Political rhetoric in the age of Donald Trump, who called on banning Muslims from entering the U.S., has been hostile and has frequently pinned Muslims as the enemy. The FBI reported 154 anti-Muslim hate crime incidents in 2014, up from 135 incidents in 2013. And in October, groups with anti-Muslim views led a nationwide day of protests against members of the religion. Even in cities where there wasn’t any scheduled activity, such as in Champaign-Urbana, Muslims felt uneasy and worried about what might happen. But local law enforcement stepped in to protect the community. University of Illinois Police Department Sergeant Barb Robbins and another officer donated their time to guard each of the mosque’s entrances that day as congregants attended the Friday prayers. “The mosque was uneasy about current events, (and) you don’t want people going to the mosque and feeling something bad can happen,” Robbins said. “Technically, the mosque is in Urbana, but I called (the Urbana Police Department) and they were fine with us doing it. They also stopped by to check in on us.” Robbins considered it “good community policy” to protect CIMIC and its mem-

we shouldn’t be able to accept partisan donations and we know that some students were offered donations from Turning Point USA whose main goal is to help conservative students win student elections,” said Trisha Rodriguez, sophomore in LAS. Accepting money from an organization with clear partisan agendas could have an effect on decision making in the student senate. “Usually funding comes with a little bit of influence so anything that could potentially change someone’s vote on a resolution — besides reaching out to actual constituents — should be prohibited,” Rodriguez said. “You can make anything partisan if you want it to be partisan.” Currently, students are allowed to be endorsed and sponsored by Registered Student Organizations which raises concerns for less direct influence. “I would like to see no RSOs sponsoring candidates. To me, it kind of turns into an interest group. It creates an advantage that I don’t think is fair,” said Madi Scanlan, senior in ACES. Rodriguez agreed that RSOs should not be donating to student campaigns. Endorsements from outside groups and RSOs lead to questions concerning the role of money in student elections. In the most recent trustee elections, Collin Schumock, junior in LAS, spent upward of $500 while Spencer Haydary, junior in LAS, spent around $200. Schumock won by 129 votes, a margin of 3.8 percent. Though

bers. She said throughout the day they were thanked, and no incidents took place. Jassim feels the local Muslim community has grown and feels at home in Champaign-Urbana because of an overall welcoming and accepting environment — by and large due to the University’s influence. “I think it’s because the community is educated, which implies the students being educated, too,” Jassim said. “We’re also close to bigger cities, like Chicago, St. Louis and Indianapolis. We’re like a magnet from all those places.” Urbana Mayor Laurel Prussing said local attitudes of acceptance stem from the fact that this is an international community that sees people as individuals and respects different viewpoints. “We welcome people. We respect different religions, different political views, different races,” she said. She commended the Muslim community’s engagement with the larger local community, namely after 9/11 when it held a reception to condemn the attacks. Prussing said attendees understood the tragic events of that day were not an act of Islam, but rather the terrible actions of individuals. *** From the Muslim community’s earliest days, numerous groups in Champaign-Urbana welcomed and supported its endeavor to establish a safe space to worship. Before there was a mosque, Muslims prayed in various locations, including the Illini Union and a “Muslim house” on Goodwin and Green, which featured apartment units upstairs and a small prayer area on the lower level. Services later took place at the University YMCA and the McKinley Foundation.

Schumock spent more than double what Haydary spent, Jaylin McClinton, current student trustee and junior in LAS, said a large amount of funding is not necessary to win the election. McClinton, though grateful for his endorsement from the Illini Democrats, prides himself on spending a minimal amount of money on his campaign and engaging with students one-on-one. “My goal was to interact with students, so I went to the cultural centers, fraternities, sororities and had them introduce me to people,” McClinton said. “I would walk up to people and ask them if they had a quick second to talk and I would walk with them to their destination so they didn’t have to stop.” He said his focus as a candidate was less on financial tactics and more on personal connections. “Students should definitely be trying to engage with their respective peers and not relying on finances to get them their position because then it becomes a ‘haves versus havenots,’” McClinton said. Scanlan, along many other senators, was able to win her seat without monetary aid, simply by being an active member of the campus community and reaching out to students. “Stopping all campaign financing would level the playing field and would actually force campaigners to talk and meet with their constituents rather than relying on advertising,” Scanlan said.

Steve Shoemaker is a former pastor and executive director at McKinley Church and Foundation and former executive director at the University YMCA. He immediately forged a connection with area Muslims when he returned to C-U in 1981 to begin working at McKinley after having served as a campus pastor in North Carolina. “I was delighted to find out the local Muslim community was having their Friday prayers (at McKinley),” he said. “I got to know some of the leaders of the group.” The early ’80s were a difficult time for Muslims in the U.S. because of the Iran hostage crisis. A group of Iranian students held more than 60 Americans hostage for over a year. Spiteful sentiments arising from the crisis were often extended to AmericanMuslims as a whole. But that only led Shoemaker to be even more welcoming. Presby Hall and the McKinley Foundation became places where Muslims could regularly meet, pray and eat on campus. But Shoemaker’s outreach didn’t come without skepticism. He once got called by the FBI and was questioned about his involvement with the Muslim community. “They said, ‘What are you doing having all these Muslims here?’ I said, ‘We’re welcoming them and giving students a chance to talk to one another about important issues.’” Shoemaker said the motivation behind his support of the Muslim community is simple: It’s a religious duty. “I have always believed, as a Christian, that we are to be hospitable and welcoming to strangers. And like I told the FBI, we’re even supposed to love our enemies — I didn’t consider local Muslim students enemies, but the FBI clearly did,” Shoemaker

have to get everybody to stop when I’m starting to teach, but everybody wants to sit with her,” Dramin Weiss said. “They’re very enthusiastic about learning more and … she is actually very popular right now and thrilled and people want to practice with her.” Guadalupe wishes more people could sign with her at the University. Amber Davis, a graduate student clinician and a teacher’s assistant for Language and Culture of Deaf Communities, or SHS 222, believes Guadalupe’s involvement in the deaf and hearing world is one that many students with hearing loss face. “I don’t want to put any words in her mouth or speak for her and her situation, but just generally for kids with hearing loss, especially at this transitional identity age, it really is a point where they recognize there’s a line,” she said. Though she can understand hearing people in a one-on-one setting, it’s especially difficult for Guadalupe to communicate in a group. The most frustrating instance for her is when she observes a group of people laughing, and she’s not sure why. “I would ask my friend why they’re laughing and they’ll tell me or sometimes they’ll tell me ‘I’ll tell you later,’ which I don’t like because sometimes I would ask them later and they’ll be like ‘Oh I forgot.’ It’s not fun,” she said. Despite her frustrations, Guadalupe never asks those around her to repeat themselves. “I guess I’m afraid to ask. I don’t want them to think I’m annoying. And I don’t want to waste their time, too.”

A counterintuitive culture Separate from the hearing world, there’s another culture that’s thriving specifically because all of the individuals who belong to it have a hearing loss. “You have a whole hearing society that’s labeling it as a disability, that’s referring to it as a hearing impairment, a hearing loss, kind of these more negative terms, but then you go to the deaf culture, and they have no loss, they have no impairment,” said Kristen Anderson, a master’s student in speech language pathology and a T.A. for SHS 222. “They have a language that they can use. It would just be like if people spoke Spanish. I would never go to Mexico and say you’re disabled because I don’t speak the same language.” In SHS 222, students learn that those with a hearing loss can identify with a lowercase “d” or a capital “D.” A lowercase “d” simply refers to an individual who is deaf, but an uppercase “D” identifies that person as a member of the deaf community. For a capital “D” deaf person, being deaf is a source of pride. The capital “D” indicates the person will engage in community and social events. However, in order to receive an interpreter and a note taker in the classroom, a person must accept deafness as a disability. Under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, there are 13 disabilities that qualify a student for accommodations. “It’s counterintuitive with the culture,” Anderson said.

laughed. The early ’80s certainly wouldn’t be the last time Muslim-Americans were the targets of suspicion. When local community members expressed that they felt uneasy about attending prayers at the mosque after 9/11, Shoemaker opened up the YMCA to them. “It turned out not to be necessary because there was no local violence,” He said. “There were other Christian groups and Jewish groups who came out publicly in support of the fact that (9/11) was a small minority, a radical group — that it wasn’t an action by international Islam for sure. I know that was appreciated by the mosque.” *** Sameha Martini, junior in LAS, is from Orland Park, a southwest suburb of Chicago. She went to school in the nearby suburb of Bridgeview, which has a large Arab-Muslim presence. Martini said although people there are more exposed to Muslims than they are in C-U, she doesn’t necessarily notice a difference in attitude between the two communities. She hasn’t felt threatened on the University’s campus because of her religion or the headscarf she wears to represent it. “But at the same time, I feel like that is also just my naiveté, because the reality of it is Muslim college-age youth have been targeted; it’s not that far-fetched for something like that to potentially happen to me,” Martini said. Nationwide Islamophobia and negative media portrayals of Muslims have contributed to her unease. Muhammad Abdullah, a Champaign resident who converted to Islam from Christianity in 1972, believes challenges of acceptance can be overcome if Muslim communities increase their political

And for Dramin Weiss, deafness is not a disability. “A long time ago, people didn’t know anything about deaf culture and they would look down on me,” she said. “I’ve had to insist, look at me, look at me straight in the eye and insist on that respect. And to teach them that we are all the same in every single way except our ears.” Though Dramin Weiss doesn’t see it as often anymore, lack of awareness often results in people asking her how she drives, restaurant waiters bringing her menus in braille and even individuals throwing things at her to get her attention. “They all of a sudden think, ‘How am I going to communicate.’ I don’t know, maybe they think I’m an idiot because I’m deaf … they feel dumb because they don’t know sign language.”

Finding the balance Guadalupe’s sister, Melanie, is learning sign language at St. Francis Borgia Catholic Church, a deaf church in Chicago. It’s the same church were Guadalupe has worked since she was 15 years old, serving coffee and doughnuts to church dwellers. “Everyone signs when they are there, sometimes they’ll have an interpreter for voicing,” Guadalupe said. “Hearing people go, too — those that know sign language. Some students come to observe, sometimes they try to sign with deaf people.” In the summer of 2014, Guadalupe participated in Miss & Mister Deaf International, a competition that honors both deaf women and men. She traveled to Reading, England, performed a dance to “Party in the U.S.A” by Miley Cyrus and become friends with deaf individuals from all around the world. Though Guadalupe engages in the deaf culture community, she still feels like she doesn’t have the same pride that a capital “D” person would have. “I think she was already in high school, but she came home crying and saying she didn’t want to go to school, and I was like ‘No, no, no, you don’t just let anybody push you down like that,’” Guerrero said. “I go, ‘You have a hearing problem. ... You are not to let anybody just bring you down like that.” Jessica Bustamante, Guadalupe’s friend and a senior in LAS, didn’t even realize she was hard of hearing at first. “I think some people might not want to make the effort to get to know her, because they might see it like they won’t be able to communicate with her, but that shouldn’t stop them,” Bustamante said. “Because that’s never really been an issue with me or other people I see her around.” One day, Guadalupe hopes to work in the hearing world. She could see herself working for an adoption agency in a ministry. “I want her to go all the way. I want her to get her career,” Guerrero said. But Guadalupe is still figuring her future out. “I like this school. It has good education, good reputation. And I have some friends here too. That’s the only part I don’t regret about being here,” she said. “I thought maybe because it’s my first year I’m not used to it. So, I’m giving myself more time to see what I can do.”

and social involvement. “We see some rhetoric that is kind of hostile and intimidating. America’s changing, and some people are upset about that. They don’t feel they’re in control anymore; they feel like they’re losing the America that they know. The anxiety has caused them to speak in hostile tones,” Abdullah said. But he feels these voices make up only a small percentage of the national dialogue. And he certainly hasn’t felt their negative effects here. “I think the ChampaignUrbana community has reached out to us, but I don’t think we have in turn helped to build those relationships,” Abdullah said. “The more we build stronger bonds, those (hostile) voices, they almost have no effect because oth-

er organizations will speak up for us. Every local Muslim community has to do its part.” There have been a few isolated incidents of aggression toward CIMIC, but no significant harm has ever been done. “We get threats once in a while by mail or email,” Jassim said. “People have thrown eggs at the wall.” But Jassim said the FBI and local law enforcement have always helped to protect the mosque. Shoemaker believes the cure to discrimination is increasing understanding by talking and listening to one another. “There’s so much fear and prejudice that has to be overcome,” he said.

How social should college be?

POINT: Learn to be alone during college LEAH PEARLMAN Opinions columnist

D

espite what we all looked forward to for 18 years, college is not always an endless parade of fun scored by a montage of pop singles. It is, of course, a chance at living with complete freedom that lots of us only dreamed about during high school. We may stay up as late as we want, go out whenever we choose and be whoever we want to be. With this freedom comes a high price, one that a lot of college freshman are not prepared to have to pay: loneliness. When I arrived on campus, I felt prepared for everything, from homesickness to bad dining food. But the part about college that really took me by surprise was how lonely it feels once your schedule starts to become more regular. After the exciting beginning phase of college, when everyone is out all the time, college begins to feel stagnant. So, even after making an effort to go out, meeting people in your dorm, joining clubs or even a Greek organization, some students may start to feel

alone. And, unlike the classic college conundrums that we all prepared for, many students feel powerless against isolation. Sitting in your bed at the end of the day with no one to talk to just plain sucks, and what’s worse, is there are only seven seasons of “Parks and Recreation” on Netflix. Sadly, what many students fail to realize is that they are not the only ones feeling this way. This may be hard to believe because of the highlight reels that people post to their Facebook and Instagram feeds, but these feeds aren’t direct passageways into a person’s real life. While you may be in your room scrolling through your friends’ Facebook pictures, there are days where they are the ones in their rooms alone too. We all feel alone sometimes. Many college students feel the need to constantly surround ourselves with friends, as a way of seeking approval. We may jump into relationships, seek attention in unhealthy ways or hold onto toxic people just because somehow being alone seems so much worse. But, feeling lonely is natural and shouldn’t be looked at as a negative thing. Some people may

realize they feel alone and see it as a problem that needs to be solved right away; however, feeling alone is actually an important emotion that college students should learn to handle now. For the post-college future, students should learn to live a life where they do not need constant interaction. Finding happiness while being alone gives people the opportunity to discover themselves. It takes space and time to grow confident and become independent. It isn’t good to let your happiness rely on the contact of other people. This doesn’t mean we should avoid people who make us happy; however, finding happiness on your own makes relationships with others more positive and meaningful. As “Sex and the City” character Carrie Bradshaw once said, “Don’t forget to fall in love with yourself first.” Those are wise words to live by and take to heart here at the University. Looking forward to the rest of our lives as people who will not always have the company of others, we should learn to be happy on our own.

takes and that you can in fact never play too much Elton John. There are few places where students can have the same experiences and receive the same opportunities as we do at The Daily Illini. Working for an independent newspaper at such an excellent school is rarer than it might seem. It has been quite the year for the members of this editorial board. We covered Vice President Joe Biden’s visit to campus, the resignations of the University’s chancellor and provost, the firings of two football coaches and the athletic director, the hiring of an athletic director and football coach, and a visit from presidential candidate Bernie Sanders — just to name a few. We have complete control over what we write and publish, which has allowed us to report freely on a slew of University scandals and issues. Ironically, we’re thankful to the University for that. And though it may have seemed small to you — maybe you didn’t even realize you clicked “yes” — winning the student recommendation to renew the Media Fee meant a lot to the Illini Media Company. With the Media Fee, we will continue producing content and learning more about the careers we hope to pursue once we leave here. Thank you for reading and supporting our work through thick and thin. We have no doubt that the students filling our shoes will serve you well.

veryone has varying degrees of free time in college, but students will likely never have more time to hang out with friends than right now. Not only do you have so much free time, but most of your friends on campus are no more than a mile away. Taking time to yourself isn’t altogether bad, and you shouldn’t be embarrassed to spend a moment alone. But students must take advantage of being able to spend so much time with their friends. As a senior, I savor every free moment I have by watching a game with the guys in my house or even playing FIFA if I’m feeling competitive. Whatever the activity, hanging with friends is not something to be taken for granted. Earlier this semester, I wrote a column about my last year on campus, and the regrets some seniors have looking back on their college careers. If I interviewed every senior on this campus, I would be hard-pressed to find one that would say they

regretted not spending more time alone. It can be stressful to make plans all the time, but it is worth it because that is what you will remember from your college days. Not season three, episode two of “Breaking Bad,” or looking at YouTube videos all night, but going out to eat in downtown Champaign with all of your friends and winning an intramural championship with the guys in your pledge class. Hanging out in your room by yourself is relaxing, and even necessary at times to unwind, but I can’t recall the last time something memorable happened while I was doing so. College is a time to make memories that will last a lifetime, and it’s hard to do that when you’re binge watching “Entourage” for eight straight hours. So hang out with your friends as much as possible. That doesn’t have to mean going to the bars all the time either; it is possible to unwind while with friends. And just because you want to hang out with friends all the time doesn’t mean you’re incapable of being independent. It’s many students’ first time living on their own, which forces them

to be independent. Having friends along for the ride just adds to that experience. My counterpart here argues that relationships and self-esteem grow when spending time secluded from the world. I would have to disagree and actually believe the opposite to be true. Being introverted allows you to hide from the world and be in your safe space. College is about getting out of your safe zone and learning more about yourself by putting yourself out there. I’ve never become better friends with someone while not hanging out with them. It is better for our relationships, as well as personal growth, to put ourselves in as many diverse social situations as possible. When you graduate, your friends from school will scatter throughout the country in pursuit of their career goals, and there is no telling when you will all be together again. So take advantage of the time you have here with your friends, because chances are they will never again be so close.

Millennials influence results

Thanks to our readers

he week before spring break — typically halfway through second semester — is usually a much-needed relief for students feeling a little burnt out. But for students at The Daily Illini, the week before spring break signifies the bittersweet end of a year’s hard work, successes and challenges. On Friday, our editorial staff “turns over,” meaning all of our executive editors and most of our desk editors will be replaced with fresh faces. As such, our editorial board will be losing the majority of its members from the past year. And so, as we come to the end of our time here, we want to say thank you. Thank you to our readers and fellow students for sticking with us when times were tough, celebrating with us when we did well and voting for the Media Fee to ensure students like us have the same opportunities for years to come. Though we hope The Daily Illini serves as the campus community’s go-to news source, the 145-year-old newspaper means a lot more than that to its staff. In a newsroom full of (mostly) journalism majors, it’s no surprise that we love the College of Media. But there are some things that can’t be learned in a classroom. At The Daily Illini, we’ve learned how to work with other people, try new things and lead by example. We’ve spent the year learning how to exercise good news judgement, fix our mis-

he incomparable Kate McKinnon reprised her performance as Hillary Clinton for last week’s “Saturday Night Live” in a sketch that perfectly illustrates the importance of millennial voters in the 2016 presidential race. Throughout the hilarious sketch, we watch as Clinton slowly morphs into Senator Bernie Sanders, all while making an effort to appeal to millennial voters. The overall absurdity of the situation allows for some truly fantastic satire, such as when Clinton suggests that Sanders’ habit of railing against banks that are “too big to fail” is a “famous mobilizing sentence that works on you guys that I’ve been saying this whole time.” Not only does McKinnon nail Sanders’ anti-Wall Street rhetoric and Brooklyn accent, the overall writing of the sketch successfully captures the influence that millennial voters hold in the upcoming election, including the group’s ability to shape the way the Democratic and Republican party align themselves in the future. According to the Center for American Progress, there are currently 95 million millennials in the United States that will make up just shy of 40 percent of eligible voters. Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump emerged victorious Tuesday night in the Democratic and Republican presidential primaries, respectively. Concrete numbers have yet to be released as to the specific breakdown of how many millennials cast their vote for each candidate; however, early voter tallies are suggesting that this Illinois primary is still historic. Illinois early voter tallies from as late as Sunday night were 60 percent higher than early voter tallies in 2008, a historically active election season. Bernie Sanders dominated in Champaign county, home of the University, where he received 65.9 percent of the vote compared to 33.8 percent for Hillary Clinton. Demographics have not yet been released for the votes, but it’s likely that college voters were a significant part of Sanders’ dominance in the county. If this presidential election is encouraging more young people to vote, it would mark a positive

Millennials are less likely than previous generations to identify with one party and then consistently remain loyal to it, which has been more common with previous generations. In fact, a Pew Research Center survey found that about 51 percent of white millennials and 47 percent of non-white millennials consider them-

Such an unpredictable voting pool has caused significant challenges for members of both political parties. Clinton frequently receives flak for feeble attempts to make herself more relatable to the country’s youngest voters. As inauthentic as her effort may seem at times, Clinton has a vested interest in gaining millennial support. According to a

March poll from Rock the Vote and USA Today, 18-to 35-yearolds prefer Sanders to Clinton in the Democratic primary 54 percent to 37 percent. Republican candidates are at an equally daunting disadvantage. Overall, 55 percent of millennial voters would like to see a Democrat in the White House, while only 40 percent would like to see a Republican. Still, even with their clear political influence, millennials are notorious for their poor attendance at the polls. Sanders alluded to that during his campaign stop at the University on Saturday, suggesting that his campaign is most successful when millennials show up to vote in large numbers. With such influence, and at such a critical time in our nation’s history, apathy from millennials when it comes to physically voting is disappointing. The results from Champaign county only further illustrate the power of political involvement among millennials; Millennials are often labeled as being fond of “social media activism,” which entails sharing one’s political beliefs on Facebook or Twitter but then failing to actually go out and try and make a difference. As we begin to inherit a world that has become increasingly dangerous and volatile, due to the shortcomings of those currently in charge, it is crucial now more than ever for us to make ourselves heard by voting in the elections.

Study may link depression, technology BY VIVIENNE HENNING STAFF WRITER

Tayana Panova, a University alumna, looked around her environment and her eyes wre met with screens instead of faces. She perceived the use of cell phone technology across the campus to be ‘widespread, constant, and excessive.’ “It seemed that people in all places and at all times – on the street, in class, at bus stops, during parties – had a device in hand and a screen in front of their faces,” Panova said. “Intuitively, I felt that this intense attachment to devices had to have some kind of negative psychological consequence, and I wanted to conduct a study that would uncover whether that was the case.” Panova worked alongside psychology professor Alejandro Lleras and compared their hypotheses of how cell phone use has an effect

on people’s state of mental health. Lleras cited that he feels that this influx of technology isn’t necessarily a bad thing. “Whenever new technology has been introduced in people’s lives, (such as) TV and video games, there’s been a knee-jerk reaction where people say it’s horrible, (that) technology is going to be bad just because people engage with it so much,” he said. “Now we have generations of people who have grown up with TV and video games and it’s not necessarily true that just engaging with technology is going to necessarily make you bad or create problems in your life.” The increase in cell phone usage and other technology has correlated with a rise in mental health disorders. The American College of Health Association releases reports each year of college students’ mental health across

the country. In the reports released, during spring of 2011, 10.7 percent of college students reported being diagnosed with depression, and that percentage jumped to 13.1 percentage of spring 2015. “I feel as though the increase in tech usage leads to less focus in the moment,” said Brett Cohen, freshman in LAS. “Thus, there is information overload, that can lead to raised anxiety.” To see if there is a relationship between technology use and mental health, Lleras and Panova gave questionnaires to around 300 undergraduate students, asking them questions about their cell phone use and the students’ state of mental health. They found that high engagement with mobile phones and the Internet was correlated with higher anxiety and depression, as well as using devices for emotional

coping and escape from negative emotions. But using devices to alleviate boredom was not associated with bad mental health. “(It’s) difficult to pinpoint why exactly the relationship between excessive device use and mental health problems exists,” Panova said. “In our study we identified a potential reason for this relationship (was) escapism. Participants showed a higher tendency to use their devices when in a stressed state, and using the device for emotional escapism was found to be correlated with anxiety and depression.” This practice can also be identified as ‘avoidance coping,’ which is a method of dealing with problems by ignoring them or distracting oneself to avoid actively dealing with the problem. This is generally viewed as unhealthy for people’s psychological well-being in the

long run. Part of the duo’s experiment was to see how students interacted with their phones when introduced to stressors. The results suggested that phones provide an initial ‘security blanket effect’ in anxiety-inducing situations. “This shows that students are indeed turning to their devices when they are distressed or uncomfortable. However, our research also shows that higher escapist use of devices is related to higher psychological problems,” Panova said. “Therefore, students who engage with their devices in order to escape stressful, awkward or uncomfortable situations and emotions are likely doing themselves a disservice. (They’re) seeking relief in something that can’t effectively provide it and simultaneously forfeiting opportunities to develop healthy internal coping

Support for IlliniThon event grows BY MICHAEL SEMACA CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Each year, national organization Dance Marathon manages to get thousands of college students dancing for a cause. Founded in 1991 at Indiana University, the organization has raised millions of dollars for the Children’s Miracle Network across the country. The University is no exception; since 2007, students have been able to participate in IlliniThon, a 12-hour event occurring every April. This year, the event will be held on April 23. IlliniThon is still comparatively small due to its age, but the event has expanded signifcantly in the nine years since its inception. “We’ve grown quite in size since then,” IlliniThon president Bailey Burns said. “Last year, we raised $130,000, and our first year was just under $10,000.” Burns said over 2,000 volunteers will participate this year — three times as many dancers as last year — and registration doesn’t close until March 23. Participants, including sophomore Shayaan Naseer, are impressed with the event’s rapid expansion. “I am most excited about how much and how quickly the event has grown and is growing,” Naseer said. “I think we’re one of the younger Dance Marathons around the U.S. and our growth is honestly amazing.” Because of the event’s continuous rapid growth, it will move from the Illini Union to the ARC. Additionally, the event’s timing has changed, now being held overnight from 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. “It’s going to be really exciting,” Burns said. “It’s truly a kind of different expe-

rience when you’re staying up all night and really making that that sacrifice for the kids.” Nick Havens, director of public relations for IlliniThon, echoed that sentiment. “It has been (at the ARC) in previous years, but this year we’re filling it up and everything, so it’ll be a totally different atmosphere,” Havens said. Due to the large increase in participants, IlliniThon’s executive board anticipates to break last year’s record fundraiser. “We keep growing,” Havens said. “Hopefully this year we’re gonna make a big leap from (last year); our goal is over $200,000, so we’re definitely trying to grow. We’ve had record breaking amounts of dancers sign up this year as well, so it’s really exciting.” Havens has promoted the event throughout the year, including hosting a “Meet the Miracles Day,” where some of the families IlliniThon benefited came to campus and met with volunteers. The event alone raised over $12,000 for children. According to Havens, the expansion to multiple events is one of the organization’s goals. “We’re trying to get away from the mentality that it’s just a one day event and that’s it,” he said. “It is a year long effort to fundraise; you can’t raise hundreds of thousands of dollars in one day. We want to make it a year-long effort.” IlliniThon has benefitted countless families throughout the years. For example, the fundraiser helped fund a new NICU at St. John’s Children’s Hospital in Springfield, where all of IlliniThon’s funds are sent. They’ve also helped many individual “Mir-

CULTURE up, his parents didn’t want to push the culture of their home country on him and his siblings. “When my parents came here, it wasn’t like they left their roots, but it’s just more like they didn’t want it to be like they were living in Algeria 2.0 type of feel,” he said. “They wanted us to grow up as Americans, not just Algerians living in an American country, so they gave us a good combination of both.” For Osazomon Imarenezor, senior in LAS, her upbringing was very different from Mokraoui’s upbringing when it came to how her parents taught her about her Nigerian roots. “My parents would always tell me when I was younger, ‘When you enter the household, you are in Nigeria, but when you leave, you are back in America,’” she said. Cultural pride was already a big part of home life growing up, so coming to college only increased her pride in heritage. That pride was helped by campus ethnic organizations like the African Cultural Association, which she is now the president of. “The African community is very close knit, so it’s even brought me closer to my culture because I’m around a lot more people like me who have gone through similar experiences growing up either here or in Nigeria or going through the school system. It’s that cultural difference between what you learn at school and what you learn at home,” she said. “Coming here

A lot of our money goes toward getting his family places to stay while they’re treating him, and making sure all children have as fantastic an experience they can while they’re in the hospital.” Many of the families that benefit will be at the ARC to see the fundraiser. This is part of what makes IlliniThon a unique fundraiser, Naseer said. “For a lot of fundraisers, the actual people that are affected by the funds can seem so far away,” he said. “With all the families that come in, especially the

mechanisms.” Technology now has a more active role than ever in our everyday lives, but the possibility of linking phone use to mental health shouldn’t stop people from using technology. The findings of their research shows that if individuals used their phones when they were bored and to pass the time, there was no correlation to people’s mental health. “We cannot conclude that the device is what makes people depressed or anxious. We don’t know, because this is a correlational study,” Lleras said. “The important thing to know is that if you notice people using cell phones in this way, then that is indicative that perhaps that person is having mental health issues because there’s this positive correlation. We can use one as an indicator for the other.”

amazing kids of the Children’s Miracle Network, IlliniThon can really make a special impact on an individual donor and fundraising student that other fundraisers can’t quite match.” Despite the growth, Havens said Illinithon has ways to go. “I want everyone to know what IlliniThon is,” Havens said. “At Iowa, the way that it works is everyone knows what dance marathon is, and if you’re not participating, then you go home that weekend, because there’s nothing else on campus. Ultimately, I would like to see that here one day, where the culture is everyone wants to get involved, everyone wants to get fundraising, because it’s just such a wonderful cause.”

and joining ACA really helped transform my experience.” Daniel Savio Paiva de Medeiros, an exchange student from Brazil majoring in Engineering, said having a community of people from his home country helped him maintain his cultural identity while in the States. “I’m not alone here ... I have a ton of friends from Brazil too, so whenever we get together, our parties usually have Brazilian music,” Medeiros said. “I know some of my Brazilian friends that are far more ‘Americanized’ because they live alone, they don’t hang out with us, so they became far more included in the American culture.” Much like Imarenezor’s experience, getting involved with the LusoBrazillian Cultural Association helped Medeiros stay connected with his culture through their programs. “The association sets up a Brazilian carnival party that reminds me of how our parties are back home in my home country,” Medeiros said. For Medeiros, cultural difference has served as a point of connection with American students and their culture. “We feel like rockstars,” Medeiros said. “Since we’re from far (away), everybody wants to know what it’s like to live in that place,” he said. “We like fit in because we are different. If we were the same, it would be harder for us to fit in because everybody wants to know what is it like in Brazil. If you’re somewhere from Chicago or something like that ... you’re just another kid.”

COLLEEN DEMPSEY THE DAILY ILLINI

Addy Timmins works on the computer at Business Instructional Facility on Sept. 14, as part of the MakerGirl program.

Eight weeks. Twelve cities. One mobile unit. What started off as a project for a business course has evolved into an organization ready to impact the nation by empowering young girls to pursue a passion in STEM fields. This summer, MakerGirl has decided to take its 3-D printers on wheels and travel to various rural communities in order to expose the STEM fields to girls who lacked the opportunity otherwise. The group will start in New York and end in Washington. “We hope to bring these 3-D printers, these resources, these things we have been blessed with on the U of I campus to so many communities around the U.S. and use them to empower more women,” said Annie Guo, senior in Business and member of the MakerGirl team. MakerGirl is a nonprofit organization that was founded at the University in 2014 with the purpose of promoting gender equality within the STEM fields. Through 3-D printing sessions, they hope to fuel the passion of young girls and inspire them to be the catalyst for change. “I think that us encouraging these girls to be tomorrow’s change makers is really important because instilling that within them at this age can really make an impact,” said Lauren Wenig, junior in Media and marketing director of MakerGirl. “It lets them believe that they really can do these great things.” Since their pilot session in December 2014, MakerGirl has become a 501(c)(3) accredited nonprofit organization that has hosted more than 55 sessions with over 470 participants, some of which have been held in southern Illinois and Chicago. “(MakerGirl) has definitely grown in size. We have held a lot more sessions and have even gotten a lot more involved with the Uni-

versity and other big companies,” Wenig said. “Every member is really devoted to MakerGirl and that has made it into what it is today.” In addition to this success, MakerGirl has also gotten the opportunity to collaborate with other organizations such as Girl Scouts, Camp Kesem and Big Brothers Big Sisters, in order to show how applicable the STEM fields can be. With these additions, they aim to make each session engaging and highly interactive in order to cultivate the eagerness and ambition of those that attend. “I think a good thing about MakerGirl is that we don’t just introduce them to STEM, but we encourage them and give them the mentality that they can do it,” said Kendall Furbee, freshman in Engineering and internal marketing manager of MakerGirl. “I think a lot of girls don’t have that kind of support in their households or the environments that they are in, which is something really important to have.” With the new mobile program they are implementing this summer, the organization is hoping to continue to enlarge their success. “I think that if people see how easy it is for the truck to go across the United States, they will start to understand that (institutionalized gender norms within STEM) is something that can be changed,” Guo said. “Hopefully after people see our legitimacy, they will be more willing to invest in 3-D printers and hold sessions of their own.” As a campus-originated organization, MakerGirl prides itself in being a regional sensation that fights against the homogeneity of the STEM fields in order to provide more opportunities for women. “We are doing something that not a lot of students have had the opportunity to do,” Wenig said. “MakerGirl makes me feel like I’m actually making a difference.”

Students maintain cultural identity BY NATALIE STEWART STAFF WRITER

When Yanis Ali Mokraoui moved into his freshmanyear residence hall, he discovered other students who were in tune with their cultures. This inspired him to learn more about his own. “They say college is a learning experience and you expand your horizons, so culture is defi nitely a thing for me coming to college,” said Mokraoui, senior in LAS. Social, academic and per-

sonal growth are all things students naturally expect to experience when they come to college. But with this expectation comes a certain level of pressure to fit into the mold that the university environment indirectly places on students. For individuals coming from a broad range of backgrounds, maintaining cultural identity can be a challenge when adaption is expected.

Now an All-American, Wells to redshirt BY WILL MOST STAFF WRITER

Editor’s note: The Daily Illini sports desk sits down each week and decides which Illinois athlete or coach is our Illini of the Week. Athletes and coaches are evaluated by individual performance and contribution to team success.

J

onathan Wells had already topped the first two heights in the high jump. With his final jump remaining, he ran forward, leapt up and just grazed the third and final bar. Had he cleared the 2.23 meter-tall bar, Wells might have stood even higher on the NCAA Indoor Championships’ podium, at either first or second. As close as he was to taking home the top prize, Wells was just as close to missing the podium all together. In fact, eight contestants had the same height as Wells, and it was only through a series of tiebreakers that the honors were determined. Had Wells not cleared the first height on his first jump, he would not have beat Bradley Adkins, a fivetime All-American who had taken second at last year’s indoor championship. “We went out there and competed,” Wells said. “We knew we had to hit 2.18 to get on the podium, and that is what we did.” Wells placed 13th at the event in the previous year, and jumped a full three centimeters higher this year. And while the jump certainly led to one of the best moments of his career, it was not his highest jump in the season — he placed his best mark at the Husker Invite in February when he cleared a bar placed at 2.19 meters. The Illini finished second in the Big Ten Indoors a year ago, but needed the young Wells to contribute to their highly competitive team, and that outdoor season Illinois would go on to

The reigning Big Ten outdoor champs are struggling to field a competitive team. Wells will likely find himself as a redshirt sophomore, using the spring sea-

son to focus on what Turk views as his future. Turk, who thinks Wells has the work ethic and talent to someday be a national champion at a multi-event, wants to use the season to fine tune some of his weaker events. To reach the level that Turk thinks he can, Wells will have to work on his throwing events — discus and javelin — and events that he has limited success in, like pole vault. And while Turk has the vision of Wells mostly in multi-events, he’s not ruling out the possibility

that Wells could participate in individual events later on. To Turk, Wells’ redshirt season was nearly inevitable, and if he didn’t use this season he might have to spend his entire junior year redshirted. With the team currently bogged down by injuries and unlikely to be as nearly competitive in the outdoor season as they were last year, it seems like an apt time for the head coach to remove Wells from the mix. “It’s not necessarily a bad thing,” Wells said. “Making that move might be the most

UI poised for success at wrestling championships BY ALEX WALLNER STAFF WRITER

Six Illini will represent the wrestling team at the NCAA Championships Thursday in New York City, with four of the six wrestlers earning seeds. Of all the storylines going into this weekend, two that emerge are from the 133-pound and 157-pound weight classes. Illinois’ Zane Richards is the No. 3 seed in his weight class. Cornell’s Nahshon Garrett is the No. 1 seed with a 32-0 record and was the topranked wrestler in his class all season. On the lower half of the 133-pound bracket are Richards and No. 2-seeded Cory Clark, who beat Richards in the finals of the 2016 Big Ten Championships. Richards opens up competition against Joey Palmer of Oregon State. Palmer enters with a 24-10 record. Richards is 11-1 over his last 12 matches, Palmer is 9-3 record during that stretch. A win over Palmer in the first round could force a third matchup for Richards against Maryland’s Geoff Alexander in the Sweet 16. At 157 pounds, No. 1-ranked Isaiah Martinez begins his NCAA title

defense as the top seed with a 27-1 record. Martinez squares off against Robert Henderson of North Carolina, who is 11-12. For Martinez, a thirdstraight face-off against Jason Nolf would come in the championship final on Saturday night if both grapplers go the distance. Nolf is the No. 3 seed in the bracket, with Thomas Gnatt of North Carolina State earning the second seed. The NCAA Championships will be a homecoming for senior Steven Rodrigues in the final tournament of his collegiate career. At 165 pounds, the Mount Kisco, New York native enters with a 25-3 record and a No. 6 seed in the tournament. All three losses for Rodrigues have come against an opponent with the last name Jordan and both are on the lower half of the bracket with Rodrigues. Wisconsin’s Isaac Jordan (25-0) enters the tournament as the second seed in his weight class. The reigning Big Ten Champion at 165 pounds defeated Rodrigues by a 5-2 decision in the regular season. Bo Jordan of Ohio State is the third seed at the

NCAA Championships with a 16-2 record. He has beat Rodrigues twice. Rodrigues has mentally prepared himself for what he hopes is a tough “five wars.” Five matches — “wars” — separate him from the national title. “It’s extremely exciting,” Rodrigues said of competing in his hometown. “It’s something that, you know, I’ve dreamed about since I was little and it’s time to go get what I deserve.” This tournament will be the final run for Jeff Koepke at 184 pounds. He will face No. 4 seed Domenic Abounader of Michigan, whom he’s faced twice this season. Koepke (20-8) enters unseeded, but has battled Abounader well in their previous two bouts. Koepke lost by six and seven points, respectively, both by decision. “The last two times I’ve wrestled him, I’ve wrestled his style,” Koepke said. “He slowed me down a little bit, but I think I can go out there and get more attacks and tire him out a little bit, and I think that will lead to me winning the match.”

Teeing up a fastball or occasional curveball came easy to Jalin McMillan during his high school days. Things are a little different for him now, though, as he transitions into collegiate baseball with the Illini. “You get yourself out in high school,” said McMillan, who split his high school days at De La Salle Institute and Simeon Career Academy, two South Side Chicago schools. “The pitchers make more mistakes. They think they can get you out with a 84-85 mile per hour fastball down the middle, or with a curve, so there’s not many adjustments to make.” McMillan has had to make more adjustments early on in his freshman campaign, but has fared well. He is 3-for-9 at the plate (.333) and hit his first collegiate home run in Sunday’s 12-4 loss to Coastal Carolina during a pitch-hit appearance in the seventh inning. The Chicago native knew he’d gotten ahold of a hanging curveball but was cautious as he rounded first base. “I hit it well, but I didn’t want to look foolish and trot and have it not go out,” McMillan said. “Being a freshman, I didn’t want to look silly, so I ran hard until I saw it go over the fence.” Upon his arrival to the dugout, McMillan was greeted with congratulatory hugs and back pats. His roommate, sophomore Dan Rowbottom, was one of the most excited teammates in the clubhouse. As McMillan put it, “the two really root for one another.”

against UNC Greensboro. The right-handed hurler notified his father immediately after receiving word from head coach Dan Hartleb that he would be starting for the Illini. Bellair made five appearances out of the pen prior to his first collegiate start.

I earned myself a few more starts.” Bellair said his goal is to be a starting pitcher, although he is comfortable coming out of the pen for Illinois if that’s what Hartleb wants. The right-hander went seven innings and struck out three batters while

allowing four hits and one unearned one. Relief pitcher Nick Blackburn was credited with the loss.

Sedlock struggles in first loss Not much seem to go right for Illinois in its last weekend series. The team gave up 13 unearned runs, lost a game in extra innings and was outscored 47-21 over the fourgame span. The struggles began in Friday’s 20-9 loss to UNC Greensboro. Ace Cody Sedlock, who came in with a 2-0 record, surrendered 12 runs, six of them earned, in five and 2/3 innings. “He didn’t have the same location he had during the first three weekends,” Hartleb said. “He got himself in a lot of jams and left a lot of pitches in the zone. We also didn’t help him defensively.” In his three previous starts, Sedlock didn’t allowed more than two runs. His next opportunity to bounce back will be this weekend when the Illini face Northern Illinois and Southern Illinois in Carbondale.

Illinois prepares to face Oklahoma BY JAMES BOYD STAFF WRITER

When classes end this Friday, the University will officially be on spring break. But before members of the men’s gymnastics team can join their peers on vacation, they must first square off against the No. 1 team in the country. Oklahoma has finished in the top two at the NCAA National Championships in each of the past five seasons, and after being the runner-up for four consecutive years, the Sooners finally earned the NCAA crown last year. Looking to continue their undefeated season, the reigning NCAA champs will enter Huff Hall this Saturday, fresh off of a first place finish against Ohio State and Air Force in a threeway meet. The Sooners are averaging 449.05 points per competition, higher than Illinois’ season-high and school record of 442.300. “(Oklahoma) is going to have great energy. They’re going to be hitting routines, they’re going to be doing what they’ve done all year long,” head coach Justin Spring said. “We need to be able to fire back within those momentum swings and be doing our job.” An upset of the Sooners would solidify the Illini as one of the best teams in the country, but for some gymnasts on Spring’s squad, it could mean a lot more. Saturday marks the final home competition of the 2015-16 season and for three Illini seniors, an underdog victory would be a sweet end to their collegiate careers. Spring reflected back on his time as a student-athlete at Illinois and said that he expects Saturday’s Senior night will mean a little bit extra to his seniors. As much as Spring wants to approach it as “just another meet,” he wants to acknowledge this moment for the men he’s coached over the last four years. Spring expects they’ll give it all they have one last time. “My brother was on the

The Big Five Meet last weekend in Columbus, Ohio, prepped the Illinois women’s gymnastics team to take on the real deal — the Big Ten Championships. Last weekend, Illinois went up against Nebraska, Michigan State, Maryland and Ohio State at the Big Five Meet. The Illini were in the running to place within the top-three at the meet, until senior Giana O’Connor sustained an injury on floor. O’Connor’s injury on the last run of her floor routine forced the team to make some last minute additions in the lineup, which slowed down the team’s momentum and led to a fourth place (195.950) finish. With a finish outside the top three, the Illini were placed in the first session of the Big Ten Championships this weekend in Lincoln, Nebraska. The morning session of the championships will put No. 25 Illinois up against No. 18 Iowa, Maryland and Rutgers. The Illini have seen each of these programs in competition this year, losing only to Iowa (195.125-196.275) at the beginning of February. For the Illini to make a run for the championship title, they will need to shine above the teams in their session and have the best performance of their season. A major factor of the meet will be whether or not the team can properly account for O’Connor being out of competition.

O’Connor’s absence leaves an open spot in each of the four events for head coach Kim Landrus to fill. “We have people to fill those roles,” Landrus said. “It will be a total team effort for people to step up.” Last meet, Landrus put in freshman Julia Hutcherson on vault and sophomore Bridget Hodan on the uneven bars and plans to stick to those choices this weekend. As for the remaining events, Landrus has freshman Brielle Nguyen and senior Heather Foley in mind as possible substitutions to compete beam and floor this Saturday.

“I want to see them go out and be confident, making sure that they put everything in it.” KIM LANDRUS HEAD COACH

Even with the event spots filled, the team will be without one of the major team leaders in competition. O’Connor ranks No. 24 nationally in the allaround, No. 6 in the Big Ten and leads the team with 21 individual event titles this season. “I think (Giana’s injury) is difficult for us because these last competitions are the most important and she was a big part of the team,” freshman Lizzy LeDuc said. “But it’s nice to have

her cheering for us on the sidelines.” The team’s performance this weekend will also depend on whether the gymnasts can put together a successful bars rotation. In the combined past three meets, the Illini have averaged 48.442 on bars. The team has been struggling to hit six routines in the event, leading to lower scores and a lack confidence on the rotation. “I think one of the biggest things is bars; the confidence isn’t there,” LeDuc said. “I feel like if we just get that (confidence) up, it’ll help the team.” On other events, the Illini have been performing consistently well. Senior Sunny Kato, who leads the Big Ten on beam and nationally ranks No. 4, has led the beam rotation through five straight meets of event totals 49.150 or higher. The Illini have also been producing points on floor and vault, setting season high totals in each of the events in recent meets. If the gymnasts can manage to come together on bars and if they keep the consistent performances on beam, floor and vault, they will be a competitor against teams in the second session of the championships. “I want to see them go out and be confident, making sure that they put everything in it,” Landrus said. “I want them to have fun and really go back to their training and the ‘why’ and everything that we’ve worked on all year.”

Illinois’ Logan Bradley performs his routine on the pommel horse at the meet against Michigan on Saturday. team. He graduated back in 2009, so I remember coming to Huff Hall, watching meets when I was 10 or 11 years old,” senior Logan Bradley said. “It’s sad, like I never actually thought I would be sad. But at the same time, it’s exciting to move on to the next part of my life.” In its last competition before the Big Ten Championships, Illinois will look to bounce back from a sloppy victory over Michigan, in which the team had 10 falls. Not feeling 100 percent when his team faced its Big Ten foe, sophomore standout Bobby Baker was responsible for three of those falls. “The routines were great. He’s got dismount issues. We’ve got to fix his dismount,” Spring said. “So we’re going to hit tons of numbers of those (in practice), and make sure he walks into next weekend ...

feeling comfortable finishing a set start to finish.” In his quest for redemption, Baker will be joined by sophomore Brandon Ngai, who also had a rough meet against the Wolverines. The 17-year-old recorded his lowest pommel horse score of the season after falling off of the apparatus in the middle of his routine. Neither Spring nor associate head coach Daniel Ribeiro are concerned about how the sophomore will respond. Ribeiro equated Ngai’s mistake to “missing a three-point shot,” and Spring simply said that Ngai’s mistake was due to him being human. Both expect the event specialist to return to his national title-contending form this Saturday.

Illinois, Baylor to feature new lineups in California BY MIKE GASICK STAFF WRITER

The Intercollegiate Tennis Association acknowledges how much competition Illinois men’s tennis has gone up against this season, and it has reflected in the team’s ranking. After being defeated by their fifth top-10 opponent of the season, the Illini have fallen three spots in the national rankings and will enter their competition this week as No. 11. The team has been ranked between Nos. 6 and 12 for the whole season. The Illini will look to continue that trend this weekend with a win against Baylor. The No. 21 Bears fell three spots after winning all three of their matches against the Prairie View A&M Panthers. The ITA did not grant Baylor a higher ranking because of the level of competition Prairie View A&M (1-16) presented. Baylor has gathered 11 wins this year, three of which have come against top-40 opponents (No. 26 Memphis, No. 30 Oregon and No. 39 Columbia). The Bears have dropped only four matches, most notably against No. 9 Texas A&M and No. 4 Ohio State. Illinois traveled to Baylor last year, coming out on top 4-3 behind singles match victories from graduated

The team was down 3-1, but rallied its way back to top the Bears, who were ranked No. 6 at the time (Illinois was No. 11). The lineups will be different this time around, because both teams have lost a few important players from last year’s teams. Hiltzik and Vukic have traded Illinois’ No. 1 singles spot this year, and one will take on Julian Lenz. Lenz is ranked No. 17 in the ITA National Players Rankings and has strung together a 15-1 record this year. Lenz was an All-American in both singles and doubles in last year’s spring season. The German native was ranked No. 1 during two separate weeks last year. Illinois players have continued to move up in the

Jared’s brother, Aron, also jumped three spots, putting him at No. 63 heading into the weekend’s competition. Head coach Brad Dancer has implemented differ-

ent lineups throughout the season, but has maintained a similar doubles lineup. Freshman Pengxuan Jiang and junior Julian Childers have paired together to compete in the No. 3 doubles position for most of the season.

In singles, Dancer has shuffled around the bottom of his lineup. Senior Brian Page and freshman Pablo Landa have split time at the No. 6 position, and both have battled to keep that spot in the lineup. The match will take place

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS OFFICIAL NOTICE

Research Memorandum #306

LIST OF TEACHERS RANKED AS EXCELLENT BY THEIR STUDENTS

FALL 2015 (Based on Data Collected FALL 2015)

The results for the FALL 2015 administration of student ratings of instructors are included in this list. Results are based on Instructor and Course Evaluation (ICES) questionnaire forms maintained by Measurement and Evaluation, Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning. More than one half of the faculty is estimated to have used student rating forms, but a substantial number have not. Therefore, the report is necessarily incomplete. Instructors who did not have students evaluate their classes or chose to use a form other than those reported here have no opportunity to be included. For some instructors who did use these forms, there is also the possibility that they received ratings that were not truly representative of their teaching ability. For these reasons, in the past we adopted the title “An Incomplete List of Teachers Ranked as Excellent by Their Students.” These reasons still hold and the list is still ‘incomplete’ but we have taken “Incomplete” out of the title. The results are presented in department alphabetical order. Criteria for inclusion follows. PREPARATION OF RESULTS This list is based on ICES forms filled in by students during the Fall semester of 2015. Only those instructors who gave out ICES forms ACCOUNTANCY AUTREY,R BAUER,A * BROWN,T CANTIERI,K TA CHATTERTON,A * CHORVAT,E DAVIS,G * DIECKMAN,C TA * DITMAN,S TA * DONOHOE,M FAN,Q GREMBOWSKI,T TA * HARRIS,M TA HART,M HECHT,G HOBSON,J IBRAHIM,A KOO,S KUSTANOVICH,M NAGLE,A TA NEKRASZ,F * SCHWARTZ,R * SHANAHAN,M TA SHANNON,R TA SNYDER,R TA STERNBURG,T * WHITLOCK,B WOJNAROWSKI,M TA

Only numerical data from the ICES questionnaire results were used, and at least five students must have responded in each class. Special Notice: In the past, to be included on the list instructors needed to be rated among the top 30% across campus in their respective Elective-Mixed-Required course group. Beginning with the Fall 2000 semester ICES results, our office has shifted to a set of criterion cutoffs for the List. Below are the ICES average (mean) results needed to make the List of Teachers Ranked as Excellent by Their Students. Faculty must meet the
