Jump Simulation Center announced Center’s simulations to prepare medical students for technological field BY MARIAH SCHAEFER STAFF WRITER

When the Carle-Illinois College of Medicine opens its doors to students in approximately three years, a new technological facility will help prepare medical professionals for a future in a technology-driven field. The creation of the Jump Simulation Center, which was announced in late June, was made possible by a $10 million gift from University alumnus Bill DiSomma, who owns Jump Trading, a Chicago-based trading fi rm. DiSomma also helped create the Jump Trading Simulation and Education Center in Peoria, which has a partnership with the University of Illinois. “The DiSomma Foundation was instrumental in forming the big simulation center in Peoria, and so they gave us this new, big, generous grant to start our own simulation center for the new College of Medicine here,” said Kesh Kesavadas, director of the Health Care Engineering Systems Center, who will co-direct the Urbana center with the Peoria center’s chief medical officer John Vozenilek. The Peoria center focuses on research in simulation and education, while the Urbana center will focus on teaching medical students through simulation. The Jump Simulation Center will be located in the basement of Everitt Laboratory, and it will be completed by the time

ing-based education that we are going to give our future physicians and doctors,” Kesavadas said. He said the purpose of using simulation is to train medical professionals without having to use human beings all the time. There will be several simulation technologies available to students at the center: standardized patients, mannequin-based simulators and virtual reality simulators. “In a simulation facility, the basic idea is that you have clinical environment that you set up; you set up like a mock ICU or a mock OR or a mock patient interaction room, and you use the simulation environment to train the students that will be future physicians,” said Rashid Bashir, head of the Department of Bioengineering. Bashir was involved in developing the original partnership with the Jump Center in Peoria. “Our goal is to bring in some of those engineering innovations and the research that is taking place, to bring them in to an educational environment in the simulation center to be able to expose the MDs of tomorrow, because we believe many of these technologies will be used in clinical practices in the future,” Bashir said. Kesavadas said that the equipment available to students at the Jump Simulation Center will help prepare them to adapt to new technologies in the field. “Students often have to learn how to use all these new modern devices, which come

the fi rst students of the College of Medicine arrive on campus in 2018. The center is now under architectural design. “When we learned that we are going to have a new engineering-based College of Medicine, we realized very early on that having a world-class simulation facility here will be very beneficial for our college, be very beneficial for the engineer-

in the market,” Kesavadas said. “It’s very hard to train students and professionals using these devices in a hospital environment with patients, so we think that our simulation center will focus on developing new technologies so that we can test devices, and at the same time, use it for training.” Kesavadas said that the Jump Simulation

Virtual reality: Table-sized touchscreens allow students to practice complicated surgeries.

Center will not just be available to College of Medicine students. Students in the College of Engineering will also be able to use the center because it will be located in the new Department of Bioengineering building. He said the fact that the center will be located in the engineering campus is very unique, noting that many engineering students in other universities do not have access to a simulation center because the simulation center is located in the heart of a medical campus. “We can see that engineering students can also contribute to building the next level of simulators, can contribute in terms of working with medical students to come up with new ideas,” Kesavadas said. “We think that all this collaboration fosters much better simulator environments of the future.” With such an emphasis on technology, the human side of medicine suffers the risk of being put aside. However, Bashir assures that that will not be the case with the College of Medicine. He said that the curriculum will have many thematic areas, and doctor-patient interaction will be one of them. “The idea is to make available the latest and greatest technologies to the physicians

but still not lose on the patient-doctor interactions,” Bashir said. “Our goal is to use this technology to enhance the quality of the experience, not diminish it. “At the end of the day, I think our broad goal that we want to accomplish is to provide quality health care to more people at lower costs,” he said. Bashir said that those trained at the center will not be controlled by technology. He said that the physicians will still be the decision-makers, not the technology. He emphasized that the College of Medicine is a partnership between Carle and the University of Illinois. He said Carle has a partnership with Parkland College to help train health care professionals and support staff. Although the Peoria and Urbana centers have different purposes, they will coordinate. The Jump Simulation Center will train medical students and will be able to incorporate the research being done at the Jump Trading Simulation and Educational Center. “In a way, we have a very comprehensive set of partnerships that all have their unique pieces, and they come together very well,” Bashir said.

Police caution against job scams BY ATOOSA SAYEH STAFF WRITER

Two reports of job scams were filed last month, causing the Division of Public Safety to issue a reminder to students and others to be cautious when looking for employment on the University’s Virtual Job Board. According to Patrick Wade, communications specialist for the Department of Public Safety, the reports were made back in June from people who applied to jobs with fraudulent employers. “The fraudulent employer asked them to do some weird menial tasks, and then the employer would eventually ask them to wire money overseas,” Wade said. “And fortunately enough, the job applicants recognized that this was a little fishy, and they stopped communication right there and reported it to the police.” Wade said job applicants need to be skeptical and keep a very sharp eye out for people who may be trying to scam them for money. “There are people out there who want to

trick you out of your money,” Wade said. “We’ve been telling people that legitimate employers will not ask you for money before you’ve actually been hired. It’s not a thing that happens in the professional world.” Wade said another common trait between the fraudulent employers was that they asked for their applicants to set up a Yahoo messenger account for communication purposes and asked applicants to buy supplies with the promise of reimbursement, which never came. Wade said the reason why the scams keep happening may be because the website is monitored by people and not by any form of “automatic mechanisms,” which can lead to a delay in a suspicious job posting being taken down Gail Rooney, director of the Career Center, said the initial job posting on the University’s Virtual Job Board is open to the public. “We keep the postings open to every-

body because we find the website to be a very valuable resource to the community,” Rooney said. “It allows students to have means to pay for tuition and books and things like that, while also gaining valued experiences.” Wade said the online job board not only helps students but people in the Champaign-Urbana community as well. “If they need some household work, gardening or babysitting or things like that, this is a really good place to post those jobs,” Wade said. “And they have the chance of getting really smart, really experienced students who are capable of doing those jobs.” Bradley Woodruff, information management specialist for the Career Center, said the online job board is closely monitored because it is a valuable resource to the community. “The board is obviously monitored, and any time there’s a suspicious posting, the people who are running the board do a real-

ly good job of jumping on it quickly and taking it down,” Woodruff said. Woodruff said a delay could sometimes occur in taking down a suspicious post, which could lead to students potentially falling for scammers. Since the fraudulent job postings, the Virtual Job Board has posted a warning at the stop of the page cautioning users to exercise care when using the website. The warning reads: “Do not apply for or accept any job that wants to send you a check in advance of being hired or actually working. This is most likely a fraud.” Wade said to contact the police if a job posting or employer’s demands seem strange. “Any time you suspect that something is wrong, let the police know,” Wade said. “We have a lot of experience with this, and we can provide some guidance on whether or not it’s suspicious.”

Sheriffs now equiped with drug to counter opioids BY BEN LASH STAFF WRITER

Carle Foundation Hospital and the Champaign County Sheriff’s Office are taking steps to handle the misuse of both legal and illegal drugs. About 40 county officials will be equipped with the drug Narcan to counteract the effects of opioids when they are misused. Sheriff’s deputies on all shifts have been trained to administer the drug. “Opioids block the receptors that make you breathe,” said Justin Slater, the Emergency Management System Coordinator for Carle. “Patients can die quickly. Narcan goes in and clears those receptors so that you can breathe.” In the past year, Champaign County has seen nine heroin overdoses, three of which were fatal. These overdoses cause respiratory failure, and many victims are unable to receive treatment in time. “Narcan has been around for about 40 years,” Slater said. “We’ve had Narcan on the ambulances ever since I’ve been around, since 2003. Narcan is not a new drug, but it is new to have it in the hands of law enforcement.” When Narcan is possessed by law enforcement, which often arrives at the scene of overdoses before ambulances, it can be administered much sooner. The hope is that more lives can be saved. In a press release from Carle, Champaign County Sheriff’s Office Captain Shane Cook said it’s important for Narcan to be more readily-available. “It’s important to get Narcan into the hands of those who can make a big difference, those who can save lives,” Cook said.

Heroin, however, is not the only opioid that can cause respiratory failure from an overdose. “It’s not all illegal drugs; it’s opiates as well,” said Laura Mabry, public relations specialist for Carle. “Increased availability and increased abuse means that these things are everywhere.” In Champaign County, there have been a number of cases involving abuse of prescribed opioids. Narcan is also capable of combating the respiratory failures that these opiates can cause. “Statistically speaking, more people overdose and die on prescription painkillers than heroin,” Slater said. “We see it in the back of ambulances. It’s not just heroin. It occurs just as often that it’s painkillers.” Slater has been involved with the training of Champaign sheriffs for administering Narcan to overdose victims. He said he feels training has gone well and the cooperation between Carle and the Champaign County Sheriff’s Office has been very fruitful. “A lot of Champaign County officers are former EMS folks as well. It’s kind of a natural starting point for us because a lot of them know about Narcan and have used it in the back of an ambulance before,” he said. There have been efforts throughout the state of Illinois to make quick-effective drugs like Narcan more available and accessible. Slater said many first responder groups, such as volunteer firefighters, have licensing that, in the past, has prevented training and practice with emergency methods involving drugs such as Narcan. “This intervention is out of their scope of

Narcan, also known as Naloxone Hydrochloride, is a drug that can prevent the effects of an opioid or opiate overdose. Now, the drug is in the hands of first responders and local sheriffs to prevent drug overdoses through a partnership between Carle Foundation Hospital and the Champaign County Sheriff’s Office. practice. We want the state to change that scope of practice, but it’s a slow process,” Slater said. “We’re to the point where we want people to have it. You can go into public health facilities right now and tell them

you’re on opiates or you have a family member on opiates, and you can walk out of there with Narcan.”

Enthusiasts view Pluto at planetarium There was considerable excitement and anticipation felt by many astronomers across the country on Tuesday, as NASA awaited confirmation from the New Horizons Spacecraft on its flyby mission of Pluto. Some of that excitement and anticipation was felt locally at Pluto Palooza, an event held at the Staerkel Planetarium at Parkland College. From 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., local families and astronomy enthusiasts were able to watch live feeds of the NASA control room as they awaited confirmation, as well as learn more about the New Horizons mission and Pluto itself. “We’re the second-largest planetarium in the state of Illinois, with seating for up to 128 people,” said Cindy Reynolds, operational assistant at Staerkel Planetarium. “The drone is basically on autopilot,” said David Leake, director of Staerkel Planetarium. “You can’t send in a message saying ‘turn left and take a picture’. It’ would take 4 hours for the message to get there, and then 4 hours for data to come back.” The New Horizons Spacecraft launched back in 2006, when Pluto was still considered a planet. Regardless, NASA engineers and scientists have been waiting excitedly for years for New Horizons to complete its

flyby of the dwarf planet. “Basically we’re running through a dark room taking pictures as fast as we can,” said Leake, regarding the spacecraft’s flyby. “And then it’s going to turn its antenna back to earth and ‘phone home.’ Sending that signal and us picking it up means everything’s connected and it can start sending pictures.” Inside the planetarium, attendees were shown various videos from NASA relating to the New Horizons mission as well as other tasks and operations, such as work done in the International Space Station. “We’re playing the live NASA stream,” said Tania Swigart, an operator of the projection equipment in the planetarium. “I’m going to be here this Friday though, doing the show following up from this event. We’re going to have the new Pluto images, so I think we’re going to have a lot of people come back for that event. I think we’re going to be in for a busy weekend.” Outside in the planetarium’s lobby, families could participate in activities that involved finding Pluto in a telescoping image of the night sky. Other activities involved learning about the weight difference between what is felt on the surface of the Earth and the surface of Pluto. NASA received confirmation that the New Horizons spacecraft survived its fly-

This confirmation arrived approximately 13 hours after the actual flyby took place. Two hours before the confirmation arrived, Leake said humorously, “We’re hoping that it survived and didn’t hit a moon we didn’t know about it or something

like that.” The confirmation was met with celebration by the crowd that had gathered at Staerkel Planetarium throughout the evening.

Embracing popular culture with an open mind EMMA GOODWIN Opinions editor

When it comes to the music universe — which, let’s be honest, has basically monopolized my entire being — there are two things I have come to respect and appreciate time and time again. The first is my father and his complete disregard for genre. The man has praised rappers, pop stars and the world’s greatest, abandoning bias for the greater musical good in a way that mimics the second thing I adore. Rolling Stone magazine — a publication widely respected for honest music reviews — also spans every genre. Giving fair, honest, respectful and non-demeaning reviews to all artists, pinning The Jonas Brothers and One Direction on the same page as award winners like Beck. When it comes to those involved in the music world, these are people doing it right – displaying an ability to look at Justin Bieber as a musical artist rather than depreciating him because 99.9 percent of his fan base is made up of adolescent girls. This type of disregard is clearly present in the musical world; seeing who a band’s fans are, and if the fans aren’t deemed musically savvy, well, the band must be awful, too.

But these types of judgements clearly exampled by Carly Rae Jepsen or The Backstreet Boys a few years back have been seeping into other pop-culture arenas as well. I find myself having to bite my tongue before I say I love Cosmopolitan, my favorite television show is The Mindy Project and one of my favorite movies is You’ve Got Mail (the one time I made the “mistake” of admitting this in a Media class, I was met with laughter and slight disregard for my following opinions on cinematic works). But the problem is not that I like these things, the problem represented here is two-fold. First of all, it is unfair to take one aspect of a person’s pop-culture preferences and make judgements about their taste — pigeonholing them into a lower standard of appreciation because of the merits you have assigned a certain piece of work. It is also unfair to do the opposite and see who likes a certain piece of work, and judging that work by who enjoys it rather than experiencing and evaluating it for yourself with a clear mind. And second of all, all of the things people get judged for liking, most of the time, haven’t been evaluated fairly. Or they haven’t been given second chances after periods of evolution. I enjoy Cosmopolitan for their funny, sarcastic reporting, but also for their intense-

ly feminist manifestos and moral preachings about the right and wrong treatment of people. The Mindy Project is one of the only successful shows to display characters in love rather than in limbo and hit its stride while doing so (take that Sydney Pollack!). And “You’ve Got Mail”? Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan paying tribute to Jimmy Stewart in a sweet rendition of “The Shop Around the Corner”? Don’t even try to hate. And not that I — or anybody else — should have to validate taste, but it is possible to enjoy all of these things while still reading The New York Times and The Onion; while liking “Transparent;” while lauding Wes Anderson. I can love One Direction until the world ends — and I probably will. But it makes no sense that that infatuation could ever impede upon my ability to evaluate other musical selections or genres. So yes, this can be perhaps taken as a plea to stop the judgements and assumptions about people and the things they like. And absolutely people need to stop doing those things and stop scoffing when they see certain artists on a person’s iPod. But, like I said, the problem is two-fold, and it also comes with an urgency to reevaluate and do so without bias. We judge based on first impressions: First episodes, first listens, first five minutes. And none of that is fair. The first episode of “Parks and Recreation” – heck, the

first season – was a mess compared to the rest of the series. The first listen of Wilco’s “Star Wars” was rougher than I would like to admit. The first five minutes of “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” bore me to death. And similarly, “What Makes You Beautiful” and “Call Me Maybe” have a tendency to write off artists as pop-trash when they’ve grown and changed. It’s not fair to keep outdated perspectives of things we no longer — or more likely never did — understand. And it’s unfair to judge others because of those false perceptions. So next time someone tells you they like One Direction, make sure you’ve listened to “Four” before you judge the band or the person. In the same way artists like Taylor Swift have evolved, so have others who are still constantly tossed to the side. Artists (as well as their fans) are constantly evolving — and yet, our judgements are staying the same. So until you give works of art their due process – along the same lines of a Rolling Stone review — you have no right to deem it unacceptable or lacking talent, and the same goes for the fans, whose interests are likely multifaceted and complex rather than limited.

Distinguishing between cultural appropriation, appreciation KATRICE PERKINS Opinions columnist

When Hunger Games star Amandla Stenberg insulted Kylie Jenner for wearing cornrows, it became very clear just how difficult it is to distinguish between cultural appropriation and cultural appreciation. Many people will say that Jenner may be appropriating because of past appearance issues. She’s had dreads and likes to have bigger lips. Now, she’s into cornrows. These styles are commonly associated with black people. I feel that if people were more accepting of the features from black people, it wouldn’t be a problem. The problem is that

when Zendaya wore dreads on the red carpet, she was criticized for it. Jenner, however, gets praise. It seems like people who are not black get to do whatever they want with their looks, but blacks have to try to fit in. Black women don’t think that they can wear braids to a job interview, and in the past, blacks were talked down upon because of their big lips. This makes it seem like Jenner’s style changes are an appropriation; there is not an acknowledgement of the past and the biases that blacks face. However, I do think that people should not be so quick to call everything cultural appropriation. They should be flattered when people take things from their culture. Culture is shared. Everyone takes something from someone. And it’s like that time-transcending idiom: Imitation is the

sincerest form of flattery. It’s great that Stenberg spoke up about the way she felt. Cultural appropriation doesn’t get addressed that often because people like to pretend it doesn’t exist. It does. I didn’t even know what it was until my freshman year of college, so I’m glad that younger generations will now know. It’s crazy that Andy Cohen called Stenberg’s feud with Jenner a “jack-hole move.” It’s hard to know someone’s intentions. Matters like these are always touchy because people take others’ comments differently. Although Cohen didn’t mean any harm, people were offended. It led to people tweeting to fire him and/or boycott Bravo. Some people also compare cultural appropriation to cultural exchange. The difference is that cultural exchange occurs

between two equals. People appropriate when they don’t understand a culture and try to take from that minority’s culture. So many things can be seen as cultural appropriation. Some examples can be people wearing dots or jewelry on their foreheads and not knowing what it means. It’s a part of Indian tradition, but people do it for fashion. That’s when it becomes appropriation. Doing something because it looks cool or seems cute and fashionable is not appreciation or exchanging. It can be highly offensive. People should just be aware of what they’re doing and think about how they may effect others.

Sola Gratia aids local hunger in organic farm BY SARAH FOSTER

S

ASSIGNMENT EDITOR

ue Swartz picks at the soil between her fingernails. It’s 11:15 p.m. on a Thursday morning. Clouds stretch in every direction on the horizon; mud collects along the base of her shoes. Outside, a farmer soaked in mud washes off her overalls. “I love playing in the dirt,” said Swartz, standing inside a greenhouse and using a three-liter pale to dump soil into a seed tray. “It’s very relaxing, getting dirty.” This is just another day at Sola Gratia Farm, according to Swartz, who is a volunteer. Sola Gratia, a four-acre vegetable farm hidden behind a line of trees and St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Urbana, provides the Champaign-Urbana area with locallygrown, fresh produce. The farm follows organic practices, abstaining from the use of fertilizers or pesticides. From summer squash and broccoli, to kale and carrots, the farm also carries 150 varieties of 50 different vegetables. “There are names of vegetables I never even knew existed.” Swartz said. “Every week, I come, and I learn something new.” The farm sells its produce at local farmer’s markets and at Urbana’s Common Ground Food Co-op. Its produce can also be found in menu items at local restaurants, including Big Grove Tavern and Red Herring. The farm hosts kids camps to encourage children to implement healthy-eating lifestyles, and utilizes a system called community-supported agriculture, or CSA, which allows the public to purchase and eat half or full shares. But the 60 farmers, comprised of volunteers and staff, don’t just gather daily to plant, dirty their hands and make a profit. They long to make a difference by growing and donating foods to the Eastern Illinois Foodbank. “We sell just enough produce to make budget and cover our costs,” said Clay Yapp, farm manager. “Everything else, we’ve donated.” This is what Gay Holman, one of the farm’s volunteers, loves about Sola Gratia. Holman has always had a passion for gardening, but when she discovered the farm’s mission through her daughter, she wanted to use that passion to make a difference. “Hunger is a big issue, not just overseas, but here — especially in central Illinois,” Holman said. “If you can do your little thing in your little area to help solve a problem, that’s important. You’re helping your section of the world be a better place.” Holman has seen all sides of the farm. She’s been out in the fields in the snow, the

rain and the blistering heat. She has been soaked in mud and covered in sweat. But, while weighing bags of baby kale for wholesale, she said she wouldn’t have it any other way. “Working with the farm has been really good therapy,” Holman said. “This saves me a lot. It really helps my spirit. I’m inside; outside. I’m doing something for people. This stuff provides food for not only our shareholders but the Foodbank. I feel like I have the best.” This is the fourth planting season for Sola Gratia Farm, but the grounds behind St. Matthew Lutheran Church have grown produce long before its existence. The church originally grew beans and corn for the Eastern Illinois Foodbank, but when a nonprofit organization called Faith in Place approached the church about making it a community farm, Sola Gratia was born. “The mission of the church was to help the hungry with that money,” Barkley said. “They hired their first farmer (for Sola Gratia) in 2012.” So far, the farm has donated almost 20,000 pounds of fresh produce to the Eastern Illinois Foodbank since 2012. Recently, that’s about 30 percent of their total crops each year — and three times more than their intended goal. Kristin Bosch, president of development and community partnerships at the Eastern Illinois Foodbank, said the foodbank has been helped tremendously by Sola Gratia’s efforts. “A lot of these families don’t know where their next meal is coming from. Anytime we can get local, fresh produce, it’s a great asset. It goes directly to families in need,” Bosch said. “A lot of times, produce is one of the most expensive items at the grocery store. Being able to provide that to families in need is wonderful.” But exceeding those goals and providing for the foodbank can be difficult. With uncontrollable factors, such as weather and rain, a lot of the crops are destroyed; thus, they cannot be sold, donated or distributed. Sometimes, the farm doesn’t know if it’ll make budget. “It’s an uphill battle every single year because there are so many moving parts. We never know until November if we’re actually going to make budget,” Barkley said. “We want to be able to make our donation, fundraising and community goals.” Yapp said about five percent of their carrots were destroyed in the recent rainfall. “With all the rain we’ve been having, the field is flooded, so we did a carrot rescue. We pulled out almost 300 pounds of carrots, got them washed, and got them in the cooler,” Yapp said. “If carrots sit in the water for a long time, there’s so much sugar in them

Carrots were one of the many varieties of produce available for pick-up from Sola Gratia, an Urbana community-based farm enterprise, on Thursday, June 25. that they just rot.” But in these extreme conditions, Barkley said she feels closer than ever to her farmers and volunteers. “You just end up finding humor and supporting each other,” she said. “There are times when you’re just dying after a 12-hour day in extreme heat or up to your nose in mud from pulling carrots out. Often, it’s that camaraderie or team work. Working in extreme conditions and seeing staff members and volunteers rise to that occasion is really satisfying.” Barkley said she’s glad she can get her hands dirty with a purpose. “I like being part of a mission-driven farm and knowing that this is helping others,” Barkley said “I like working with people and bringing them into healthy eating and being part of a community model that is serving others. I was working in a field for 20 years where some of the projects took five to seven years before I saw any results. This way, you can see very clearly what your impact is.” Back inside the greenhouse, Swartz and Holman prepare to dirty their hands once

more. They crouch down to a container filled with soil and stick their hands inside the dirt. Small circles of ivory skin poke through the rubble, as they wipe the dirt off their hands. Barkley sneaks up behind them, grabbing the seed trays that Swartz just finished filling. She wants the volunteers to start planting more seeds in them. “We’re going to do green first,” Barkley said. “Green is red romaine lettuce. Two seeds per cell.” “More planting?” Holman asks in astonishment. She wipes the sweat off her face with her clean wrist. “How do you expect to get the food if we don’t plant?” Swartz says back with a laugh. Holman and Swartz have learned a lot from their dirty hands. “We’ve got so many different personalities, but we come together for one purpose: to grow food for people who are hungry. It’s definitely a faith in place,” Holman said. “We’ve got faith in Sola Gratia.”

Illini sports begins fall semester with uncertainty

DAILY ILLINI FILE PHOTO

Illinois’ head coach John Groce watches the game against Michigan at United Center in Chicago, Illinois during the Big Ten Tournament on Thursday, March 12, 2015.

ALEX ROUX Sports columnist

When you’ve been out of school since mid-May, it feels like summer is winding down by the time late July rolls around. Classes start in about a month. The first football game is a little over six weeks away, which will kick off another year of Illini sports. I’ve been trying to envision how the revenue sports teams will do this year, trying to put together a horoscope for Illini fans. You are about to enter a period of great joy in your fandom. Everything you have been waiting for will soon come to pass, and will have made it worth the wait. Exciting times are ahead. Something like that. But I’ve realized that it’s a useless exercise. There are so many unknowns going into 2015-16 revenue sports year at Illinois, and I’m as uncertain as I’ve ever been about Illini sports.

I’m going to be a senior, so my freshman year at Illinois was definitely uncharted territory for Illini fans. Going into 2012-13, Tim Beckman and John Groce were entering their first seasons. Mike Thomas was still new on the job as Athletic Director. We didn’t know what to expect, but at least we knew it would be new. Now, we don’t really have a great idea if the football and basketball teams will see improvement, if they’ll regress or if Beckman, Groce and Thomas will even have jobs this time next year. If I’m looking at my orange glass of kool-aid as half-full, I’m thinking that this could be the year that Beckman finally wins over the fan base. The Illini go 7-5 or even 8-4, and an exhilarating home win over Nebraska or Wisconsin gets fans believing in Illinois football again. I’m thinking that Groce scrubs the skid mark of back-to-back NITs and gets his group back to the NCAA tournament, regaining that positive momentum he’s always been able to conjure but not necessarily continue.

If those things happen, it will have been a fantastic year for Illinois sports. A solid foundation will have been laid for the two major teams to transition into the top tier of the Big Ten, and Groce and Beckman won’t be coaching and recruiting with their jobs on the line going forward. But if my orange glass of kool-aid looks half-empty, things could get pretty ugly. Injuries have already hit the football team hard. If Beckman wins less than six games next season, he better hope his teams put up a hell of a fight in the losses. If the Illini don’t reach a bowl game, Beckman is probably gone, and whatever recruiting momentum he’s built up is gone with him. Illinois football would then be starting over, again. If Groce misses the NCAA tournament for a third consecutive year, it will be something Illinois basketball hasn’t seen since the 1970s. Who knows if he could survive that situation? In the nightmare scenario that Groce is shown the door, then the new guy would step in with a graduating and still-unproven group

of players for one year, and a very thin roster after that with a steep recruiting mountain to climb. Worst-case scenario, this all leads to the teens being a lost decade for Illinois basketball. On top of all that, Thomas is under a cloud of scrutiny amidst the ongoing mistreatment investigations, so there’s a chance he might not be here a year from now, either. I don’t think my doomsday scenarios will play out, and if they do, maybe they won’t in the same year. But that’s the thing; we just don’t know what to expect. It’s a fork in the road. Turn left for sustained success, turn right for the reset button. There are reasons to be optimistic about the upcoming year of Illini sports. But with so much uncertainty and so much on the line, I’ll be watching with my hands over my eyes, peeking out through closed fingers.

Illini women’s basketball center plays for US team BY MASAKI SUIGMOTO ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR FOR VIDEO

Illinois sophomore center Chatrice White has been competing overseas for women’s basketball. White is playing as a member of the U19 Women’s World Championship Team, representing the United States. She was selected for the team back in May after going through trials at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The team features the best young college and high school players from the U.S. Dawn Staley, head coach for South Carolina’s women’s basketball team, is serving as the team’s coach. Team U.S.A. is currently competing in Chekov, Russia, for the FIBA U19 World Championships. The U.S. has won the last five U19 World Championships. “When you’re with U.S.A Basketball, you buy into the culture of what we’re all about,” Staley said in a press conference. “For us, it’s helping each other and having one like mind of doing what we need to do to help us win a gold medal.” The team started off training for the championships at the Olympic Training Center. The U19 team also competed against the team that will be traveling to Canada to play in the Pan American games. The Pan American team features some of the best players in women’s basketball at the college level, such

as first-team All-American Breanna Stewart from the University of Connecticut. The United States then traveled to Spain to take part in an exhibition tournament, going up against several other teams that they would see at the World Championships. The U.S. won 75-51 and cruised to the top spot in the tournament. White scored eight points against Spain, six of which came near the end of the half. “It is so much more physical,” White said of international play. “The refs see the games a little differently than in the U.S., which you don’t complain about, you just adapt to. You play how they expect the game to be played.” The team later traveled to Russia, where the World Championships would begin. Its first opponent of the championships was Spain once again. They dished out another impressive performance, defeating the Spaniards again, 72-57. White went scoreless, but recorded two steals in her 12 minutes of action. The World Championships will continue in Russia until the championship game on July 25. White has been blogging about her experience at the World Championships via the Illini Athletics official website. Another Illini incoming freshman, Jaelyne Kirkpatrick, is competing for Team Canada at the World Championships.

Who Owns the “West Bank”? The ancient lands of Judea and Samaria, east of Jerusalem, have been part of the Jewish homeland for 3,000 years. Today Arabs demand all of it. Judea and Samaria, the land where Jewish ancestors Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Rachel, David and Solomon created Biblical history, was renamed the “West Bank” during Jordan’s brief, illegal 19-year occupation. Today, some 380,000 Jews own land and live in the territory, yet their rights are denied by Palestinian Arabs.

TAURUS: APRIL 20 - MAY 20

Don’t let overly emotional people get you down. Mercury is stirring up some intense situations with people, and friends, lovers or family members could be freaking out. Take a deep breath, and don’t take their actions personally.

GEMINI: MAY 21 - JUNE 21

You might need to rebuild something from the ground up. Maybe you and a new lover have started a relationship on shaky terms, with one or both of you being dishonest. Saturn says do your personal homework and admit your mistakes.

The sun is moving into your sign for a few weeks, and this marks your personal new year. Take some time to reflect, to remember and to re-evaluate. Maybe there is something you’ve been neglecting in your personal life that needs to be fixed.

VIRGO: AUG. 23 - SEPT. 22

You could feel like you’re playing a parent role with your sweetheart. The moon is showing you that, in many ways, you are an old soul compared to your partner. But you can’t be the only adult in your relationship. True love takes two grown-ups.

LIBRA: SEPT. 23 - OCT. 23

As an Air sign, you worry too much about what other people think. Who cares if your parents hate your boyfriend? Why should you mind if your teacher, coach or best friend doesn’t appreciate your current lady friend? You have free will. The moon says act on it.

SCORPIO: OCT. 24 - NOV. 2

You could be thinking about people you dated in the past, wondering what they are up to now. Maybe you’ll sneak a peek at their

SAGITTARIUS: NOV. 22 - DEC. 21

22 23

The sun is finally starting to make things easier on you. You’ll find it easier to stay focused, to remain grounded and to look out for your best interests instead of letting people take advantage of you. This is a good time to make a fresh start.

A bouncy sun is making you super lusty. You’ll want to spend quality time with your honey. Turn off the phones, the TV and the Internet and just focus on celebrating physical forms of affection with that special person in your life.

CAPRICORN: DEC. 22 - JAN.19

Things are in flux for you on both a personal and a professional level. You might not be able to get a clear sense of your long-term future. This is OK. The sun is advising you to be very open-minded and to go with the flow.

PISCES: FEB. 19 - MARCH 20

Mars is making you super emotional. You could find yourself making a romantic confession to someone. Or you might stage a seduction scene for a sexy new friend. You’ll want to let your true emotions surface in creative, sensual ways.
