Alma Mater will return for Commencement

Take a Chance with The Rapper

BY CLAIRE HETTINGER CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Panelists assured that Alma Mater will be back on campus in time for 2014 Commencement at an event held Friday. Spurlock Museum hosted a discussion panel regarding Alma Mater’s progress and the specific renovations that were necessary. This talk was led by a panel consisting of the main conservator, as well as four University officials who have worked closely with this project. When Alma Mater was lifted in August 2012 to be moved to the conservation studio, Christa Deacy-Quinn, the collections manager of the Spurlock Museum, said she climbed under and looked up into the statue and was surprised at what she saw. “We thought it was just a surface problem, but when we looked inside we saw bolts were failing and we realized it was in a lot worse shape than we thought it was,” she said. She then went on to explain the treatments that Alma has been receiving since it left campus; first, an x-ray was done that revealed that 60-80 percent of the bolts that hold the different parts of Alma together were either gone, missing or in bad shape. Andrzej Dajnowski, director of

the Conservation of Sculpture & Objects Studio and lead conservator, said the failing bolts made him decide to take apart the 48 pieces that make up the statue, even though it is very unusual to take apart a statue when completing its restoration. “At the beginning I didn’t want to take it apart, but then we realized that if we didn’t it would be a nightmare,” he said. Danjonwski said the old bolts are being replaced with bronze bolts specifically created for Alma and they “should last forever.” The internal structure will continue to be sound and should not cause a problem in the future, he added. The second treatment that Alma is undergoing is a laser cleaning of her entire structure, Deacy-Quinn said. The process is reasonably new but it is becoming the most accepted method of cleaning statues and Danjonwski is the leader of this technology, said Jennifer Hain Teper, head of the conservation unit for the university library at the University. Melvyn Skvarla, campus historic preservation officer, said laser cleaning takes off the layers of corrosion that have accumulated on Alma Mater like the white and black mold that was growing on it. He said the blue color that

Alma turned over time comes from a naturally found chloride that is very corrosive and not good for the sculpture. The panelists said they decided to return Alma to a cocoa-brown color after the restoration. “It is returning to the bronze that (Lorado) Taft (the creator) intended,” Skvarla said. Danjonwski said that many parts of the restoration process are rewarding. “If you replace the bolts, you know it is safe, and if you clean the surface then it is esthetical and those are pleasant changes as well,” he said. The panelists said they plan to treat and clean Alma Mater every year so that she never has to be restored to this extent again. The project is expected to cost $360,000, over two times the original estimation of $100,000. Skvarla said all the money that has paid for Alma Mater comes from the Chancellor’s Fund, a pool of money from private donors. Student funds or other university funds have not been used for this, he said. “This is the symbol of the university,” Deacy-Quinn said. “So we must preserve it.”

Champaign City Council passes measures to make Prospect Avenue safer for children BY ANGELICA LAVITO STAFF WRITER

The Champaign City Council passed three measures in hopes of making Prospect Avenue safer for students walking to South Side Elementary School. The council voted to install a school zone with a crossing guard at the intersection of Prospect Avenue and Daniel Street, update the city’s inventory of school zones and develop crossing guard criteria. The city will also consider eva lu at i ng ac c essibi l it y improvements to the Prospect and Green intersection during evaluation of the city’s capital improvement plan. “I feel this will go a long way in making travel to and from school safer,” said Bill Taylor, principal of South Side Elementary School. The measures were passed following an accident in

September when a car struck a 7-year-old student on her way home from school, leaving the student with a broken leg. Although the accident brought safety concerns to light, Taylor said he was concerned about students crossing Prospect even before the accident. “There’s nothing stopping the cars from Green Street to Kirby (Avenue), so they get going really fast, and we have small children and families in the morning to get here and crossing it to go home in the afternoon,” Taylor said. “With the speed of the traffi c and the amount of the traffic, it’s a dangerous situation.” The accident prompted Taylor, the victim’s parents and other community members to urge the Champaign City Council and the Champaign Police Department to make Prospect Avenue safer for

students. Included in the council report was a picture the victim drew of herself in a cast and crutches with a crossing guard holding an American fl ag in one hand and a school zone sign in the other. At the top of the page, she typed “I got hurt on Prospect. Please make it safe!” Mayor Don Gerard knows the dangers presented by Prospect Avenue because he grew up near it. Also, his two children attended South Side Elementary School and crossed Prospect Avenue on their way to and from school. “When I had my kids, oftentimes it felt safer and easier just to drive them a few blocks,” he said. “Granted, I was on my way to work. But when we did walk, it wasn’t just cross the street and go

University looking into possibility of merging Labor, Employment Relations, larger college BY DANIELLE BANKS CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The status of the University’s School of Labor and Employment Relations as an independent school could change, pending a decision by administrative officials. The University has proposed a merger of the school with a larger college, such as the College of Business. Michael Carrigan, co-chair of the Labor Education

Advisory Board and president of the Illinois AFL-CIO union, said in an email that his labor union unanimously opposes the merger. Unions enroll their members in a program at the school, and he believes a merge could result in less participation and deterioration of the program. “In almost every case where a university has merged a Labor Program into a School of Business the program has been

destroyed,” he said. “The Business school is not as interested in maintaining the same areas of interest, strategy or purpose and the labor programs are compromised.” At a House Economic Development Committee hearing held on Oct. 14, Provost Ilesanmi Adesida spoke on behalf of the University. “We are working with the

University acquires former Illinois poet laureate’s literary archives BY JACQUI OGRODNIK STAFF WRITER

The University’s Rare Book & Manuscript Library recently acquired the work of Gwendolyn E. Brooks, who in 1950 became the first African-American to win a Pulitzer Prize. She was also appointed as Illinois’ poet laureate as Carl Sandburg’s successor until her death 32 years later. “We’re very excited about this acquisition because Brooks is one of the most important American poets in the 20th century,” said Anna Chen, curator of the Rare Book & Manuscript Library. With financial assistance from the President’s and Chancellor’s offices, the library purchased Brooks’ literary archive from her daughter, Nora Brooks Blakely. The collection includes 150 boxes of Brooks’ works spanning more than six decades, including poetry and prose she wrote as a teenager, annotated photographs, notes recording her daily life, her thoughts and current events that she had jotted down as well as extensive correspondence with other writers. As a great American poet, Gwendolyn Brooks’ archives allow researchers and scholars to get a sense of how she worked and what she thought, said Valerie Hotchkiss, direc-

tor of the library, in an email. “We’ve already had people contacting us who are interested in the collection to see if it’s ready,” said Marten Stromberg, another curator of the library. “It’s a wealth of information about Gwendolyn Brooks. You don’t know what you’ll be able to get out of this collection until you start working with it.” The library serves the community of scholars from the University and beyond who are interested in researching a writer’s creative process and the historical context of the periods in which these writers were working.

“Brooks was very devoted to nurturing young poets,” Chen said. “We are also very interested in involving not just University students but also primary and secondary students who are exploring her poetry and her creative process.” Chen said the curators of the library are currently involved as archivists to account for all of Brooks’ materials. “We will rehouse and inventory the entire collection so that scholars and students can easily identify items they would like to study

Campus Liquor closed until next fall STAFF WRITER

Campus Liquor officially closed its doors at midnight Saturday, ending a 27-month run at their location on the northwest corner of Fourth and Green street. Co-owners Sital Patel and Major Singh opened the store in fall 2011, replacing what had previously been Colonial Pantry Food Store. Campus Liquor will be completely moved out of the space by the end of Tuesday, Patel said. Its owners plan to take a “much-needed” vacation until the fall of next year, when they will reopen the store underneath the new apartment building that is under construction on the northwest corner of Second and Green street. The store will be renamed Campus Pantry and will carry grocery items, such as milk and eggs, in addition to liquor, Patel said. Their move from Fourth and Green street makes room for a high-rise apartment complex currently in its design phase, which will be erected where IHOP and Campus Liquor currently stand. As a joint venture between two Chicago-based development fi rms, HERE and Campus Acquisitions, the project will break ground in November and is scheduled to open for the

2015-2016 school year. According to HERE developer James Letchinger, the complex aims to be “the fi nest student living option on campus in terms of design, location and amenities.” The tower will be sixteen stories and feature retail space on the first floor. On Saturday, however, Campus Liquor was open for business for its last day until next fall. Students decked out in Homecoming gear came and went. According to Patel, the owners saw a good turnout for the last day of business, selling most of what was left in stock. Madeline Lloyd, senior in LAS, said she wanted to frequent the store one last time to say thank you to Patel and Singh. Most seniors will not be here next year when the store reopens. “It’s always a little sad when any place on campus closes down, especially when it’s a part of your college years,” she said. Lloyd said she was a sophomore when the store opened and believes the store’s success can be attributed to its convenient location for students and the friendliness of Patel and Singh. “Whenever you go in there they are so nice; they always make conversation with you,” she said.

Patel said that his favorite memories from owning Campus Liquor for the past two years have come from meeting and talking to customers and many expressed concern when they heard the store was closing. Smiling, he remembered some of their comments, such as, “We’re going

to miss you guys, now we have to walk far to another liquor store.” Patel also credits the store’s popularity among students to their deals and location in campustown. Deals are advertised by the store on the business’ Facebook page, where they disseminate most of their information.

Students should also look to the page next year for more information about Campus Liquor’s new location. Until then, the store’s “regulars” will have to fi nd another liquor store to frequent.

through a long process. The merger will need to be approved by an Urbana-Champaign Senate subcommittee, various University offices and the University’s Board of Trustees. “Being part of a larger unit could have a number of immediate benefits such as increased interdisciplinary research collaboration opportunities for faculty and students, increased flexibility in educational curricula that would enhance opportunities for students, increased possibilities for faculty hiring and joint appointments, (and) increased

competitiveness in the job market for students when they graduate,” he said. Campus spokeswoman Robin Kaler said the University is evaluating all its schools and looking for opportunities to help them grow. “We are asking all of our departments, schools and colleges to take a hard look at how they are organized, and to assess whether a different organizational structure could enhance excellence,” she said in an email. “We know that the School of Labor and Employment Relations wants to increase its master’s degree enrollments,

for example, and it needs campus support and a larger infrastructure to do that.” Regardless of the University’s intent to foster growth, Carrigan said the best way for the school to grow is to remain an independent unit. “The University of Illinois’ School of Labor and Employment Relations is known nationwide for being in the top three for its program of excellence,” he said. “We believe that left in its current form, the school will continue to grow and prosper.” There is both history and

thoughtful decision making behind the school’s independence, Carrigan said. From Carrigan’s perspective, a merger would not do the school justice. “This school was a win-win for both business and workers. The success of the program is a testament to the vision of organized labor all those years ago,” he said. “It has far exceeded our expectations and it would be a shame to see it fail in another unit of study.”

to school, it was go all the way up to the light and down back around.” Students are advised to cross Prospect Avenue at the Green Street intersection because there is a stoplight. The changes will allow students to cross Prospect Avenue in the school zone at Daniel Street with a crossing guard, which leads directly to South Side Elementary School. “We’ll start to change the culture, get people’s attention and get them slowing down,” Gerard said. “If most of the traffic is slowing down, all of the traffic will be slowing down.” At the meeting, Deputy Mayor Tom Bruno suggested that students who cross Prospect Avenue while walking to school could attend another elementary school that does not require them to cross the busy road. Parents in Unit 4 School District can apply for admission to a variety of elementary and middle schools, according to Unit 4’s registration website. Because of this, students may attend a school that may not necessarily be closest to their house. Bruno questioned whether students living west of Prospect Avenue could attend Westview Elementary School, which would prevent students from crossing Prospect Avenue, but the council does not have authority over where students attend school. “Anything is better than nothing, and these are pretty substantial acts we’re going to be taking,” Gerard said. Of the four issues presented at the meeting, three were passed. Council members rejected a fourth plan to direct staff to evaluate the feasibility of applying “Complete Street” standards to Prospect Avenue, which recognizes the need to accommodate all modes of transportation, including vehicles, transit, bicycles and pedestrians and would possibly reduce Prospect to three lanes of travel.

archivist is to bring history to people through the objects that have been preserved. “We have the primary resources,” he said. “Without these, you’re just trusting the description in the textbooks about what happened in the past.” Because patrons and researchers have access to historical lit-

erary works and archives online, Stromberg believes this actually increases the awareness of the material so more people visit and study collections they’ve never seen before. He said there are some things a person can learn from the object itself that can’t be learned from a digital image.

“Something about being in the presence of the object itself, knowing that this thing was held and read by someone 400 years ago, I don’t think is a worthless experience,” Stromberg said. “Inspiration has its own value.”

Lou Reed passes away, leaves behind profound musical legacy in his artistic writing BY GREG KOT MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE

Lou Reed never had the prominence or commercial sales of 1960s peers such as the Beatles or Bob Dylan. Though having only one major commercial hit, “Walk on the Wild Side”, his influence was just as vast, if not more so. Punk, post-punk and most strains of underground music of the past 40 years would not exist without the oneof-a-kind merger of music and words pioneered by Reed and his groundbreaking band, the Velvet Underground. Reed died Sunday at 71 in Southampton, N.Y., of an ailment related to a liver transplant he

underwent in May, his literary agent said. He leaves behind one of the most profound musical legacies of any 20th century artist. His lyrics suggested a new kind of street poetry, at once raw and literary. His music — conceived with John Cale, Sterling Morrison and Maureen Tucker in the Velvet Underground, merged primitivism with sophisticated avant garde ideas. The Velvets made four landmark studio albums before crumbling in 1970, each a template for the underground music to follow. The artists in their debut include R.E.M., David Bowie, the Sex Pistols, the Talking Heads, Roxy

Music, U2 and Patti Smith, and stretched from Iceland (Bjork) to South America (Os Mutantes). In a 1992 interview with the Chicago Tribune, Reed explained his daring mix of high and low art. He only wanted nothing to do with the middle-brow territory occupied by most rock music in the ‘60s and beyond. “I was an English major in college (Syracuse University), for chrissakes,” Reed said. “I ought to be able to put together a good lyric at the very least. It would be embarrassing if I couldn’t. And I really like rock. It’s party stuff, dance stuff and R&B stuff that we all grew up on and loved. But

I wanted something that would engage you mentally, that you could listen to on another level. I just thought that would be the perfect thing in rock ‘n’ roll. That 10 years from now you could still listen to one of my albums because it wasn’t just a party record, but something that would engage you emotionally, intellectually, if not spiritually, on the level that a novel can. And because you also have music going on, you could do something that no other form could do, especially if someone is listening on headphones. You could really get their attention and really take them someplace. You’re joining the voice in their head with your voice-there’s no one else there.”

Reed, born in Brooklyn in 1942, grew up in a middle-class family and went on to study at Syracuse University, where he was mentored by the famed poet Delmore Schwartz. His staunch interest in Beat literature and classic soul and doowop was perhaps underutilized in his job as staff songwriter for Pickwick Records in New York, but the for-hire tunesmithing sharpened his affinity for writing simple twoor three-chord melodies. “I wanted to be a writer, always did,” he once said. “Ever since elementary school I was writing songs, and I’ve essentially been able to survive by writing. I consider myself really, really lucky.”

That gift fl ourished in the Velvets, where he wrote such future classics as “Rock ‘n’ Roll,” “Sweet Jane” and “Pale Blue Eyes.” In the mid-’60s, he befriended Cale, a classically trained musician from Wales, who brought a cutting-edge sense of harmonics and texture to Reed’s melodies. Cale in turn was astounded by Reed’s skill with lyrics. “I’d never met anyone like Lou who could put words together like that. He would create these dangerous scenarios in the songs, in part because we were fi nding ourselves in these strange, dangerous scenarios all the time in New York.”

A

s obtaining four-year bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degrees become a more ubiquitous precursor to entering todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s workforce, many employers are looking for new ways to distinguish among prospective employees: internships. All internships typically contribute to an internâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knowledge in his or her field of study and provide valuable â&#x20AC;&#x153;real-wordâ&#x20AC;? working experience, but not all pay. Not only has the issue of paying (or not paying) interns been the fulcrum of the intersection between higher education and the workforce, but it essentially sets one group of interns ahead of the other. In June, a U.S. court declared that two unpaid interns working on the production of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Black Swanâ&#x20AC;? must be financially compensated by 20th Century Fox for their work, which paralleled that of paid employees. In retrospect, the ruling was the first to blur the line between the entitlements of interns versus employees. And earlier this month, a New York federal district court ruled that an unpaid intern suing her employer for sexual harassment could not bring a lawsuit forth since she was not an employee and therefore not protected under the law. The problem isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so much whether these interns are getting paid, but rather the legal ramifications of what being paid means for interns. The first example highlights that although unpaid interns may do the same work as paid employees, they are not legally employees and will not be compensated accordingly as employees. The second highlights that although unpaid interns may be working in the same environment as other paid employees, they are not treated as equals in the work environment under the law. This is often the picturesque version of the exploited unpaid intern narrative: Do the same work as employees with littleto-no pay and none of the legal benefits. And while many employers see unpaid internships as the internâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voluntary choice to learn the ins and outs of entry-level positions, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s questionable whether losing the legal status as an employee is even worth the experience. How can the phenomenon of unpaid internships persist when U.S. courts are telling interns that they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bring a case of sexual assault to court because they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t technically employees, despite breathing and working in the same environment as them? And how can it persist when interns are exploited for their work and stripped of their compensation by world-renowned, powerhouse companies such as 20th Century Fox? It canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t continue allowing an internship system once set on putting prospective employees ahead with the experience they need into a system that makes it so incredibly easy for employers to take advantage of their interns. Instead, prospective unpaid interns should be aware of what separates them from paid employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily entitled to a job at the end of the internship or entitled to wages. But employers considering bringing on unpaid interns should also be aware of the conditions of an unpaid internship â&#x20AC;&#x201D; such as an intern taking the place of regular paid employees or the internship as a benefit for the intern and not necessarily the employer. Some companies have decided to terminate their internship programs. Conde Nast, a magazine publisher, did so when allegations arose that the company was paying below minimum wage. However, other companies are keeping their doors wide open. Research Park, for example, prides itself on and depends on the student workforce at the University. According to its website, more than one-third of employees and research assistants are undergraduate students, many of whom are paid. And the Park explicitly states on its website that wages for interns are â&#x20AC;&#x153;substantially lower than full-time hiresâ&#x20AC;? and that â&#x20AC;&#x153;interns are prepared for full-time employment through training.â&#x20AC;? They lay the expectations out, define the rules and set the standards. If only all internship programs could steer away from the selfish intentions of the company and toward whom they really are meant to benefit â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the interns.

Diverse doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily mean integrated BOSWELL HUTSON Opinions columnist

J

ust a month ago, a university-sponsored student newspaper, The Crimson White, at the University of Alabama exposed the fact that many sororities on their campus have explicitly denied admission to prospective pledges based purely upon their race. This story, which was ultimately picked up by The Guardian, prompted an outrage of response both from the University of Alabama and universities across the country. President Judy Bonner came out and tried to further distance the university from these racist accusations via a series of speeches and statements. No speech or statement, however, can cover up the fact that this type of racism, intentional or not, persists in our society. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not saying that our entire society is racist, but rather that what happened at Alabama is happening all over the country, albeit much more subtly. At first I wanted to cast blame on the University of Alabama. I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe how they would exact such primitive and intolerant behaviors. As Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve thought about it, however, I came to realize that this

discreet divide isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a problem that is exclusive to Alabama, but applies to universities as a whole. Please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get me mistaken; Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not saying that our Greek system here at the University is forcibly segregated or even that admission to any given fraternity or sorority has been denied based upon race, but rather that there is a type of segregation here that is more subtle and less well-defined. When you think about it, how many fraternities and sororities on campus are truly mixed? Illinois prides itself on being one of the most diverse universities in the Big Ten, let alone in the entire country. This is a fantastic selling point to tell prospective students, especially ones like me who came from a very rural, non-diverse town. But what I have come to learn on campus is that while this diversity is great and offers vast opportunities, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily mean that our campus is also well-integrated. As much as a student at the University of Illinois may not like to admit it, signs of a racial divide, though mostly unintentional, exist on our own campus. Though some entities here on campus are diverse and contain members of many races, many communities and clubs I have encountered feature little to no integration. Though some,

especially those involved in these communities, are afraid to admit it, many fraternities and sororities and even clubs are identified by certain demographics such as race, socioeconomic status and religion. We stereotype certain sororities with only taking in wealthy suburban girls. And we stereotype certain fraternities as being â&#x20AC;&#x153;blackâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jewish.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s essentially self-segregation. As long as no one is being denied admission based upon racial characteristics, I am not saying that this separation is an evil thing. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure that there is a type of camaraderie and familiarity that comes with being in a frat with people of a similar background as you, and that should definitely be taken into account. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just interesting to note that, as a University, integration seems to be the harder goal to fulfill than diversity. But what good is diversity if it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t integrated? My freshman year, in fact, a shooting happened at a fraternity house on Lincoln Avenue. While most of us in my dorm were frightened that something like that could happen so close to us, some people in my dorm said it was understandable because the shooting happened at a â&#x20AC;&#x153;black frat.â&#x20AC;? That some of our students think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more likely for a

shooting to happen at a â&#x20AC;&#x153;blackâ&#x20AC;? house is both sad and obscene. Though this may have been an isolated incident, it is indicative of the way that many students on campus think, and may be a sign of a larger problem. I understand the focus placed on those houses in Alabama was because their instances of segregation were passed down, unwritten policies and rules to be abided by, but people must also use the University of Alabamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s problems to show themselves that perhaps this lack of integration is also problematic. It is not only apparent, but also appalling to see this racial divide come to life in 2013, especially in an area as freethinking and high-minded as a university. Someday, I want my friends, children and peers to be able to go to a university where they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to worry about pledging into a fraternity that is labeled as black, white, Hispanic or Asian. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not saying that we shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t criticize those people at the University of Alabama; we absolutely should. But what we should also do is use these horrific events as a reason to examine our own environment.

No offense, but popular lingo use needs to stop SEHAR SIDDIQUI Opinions columnist

R

eally, just stop. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to say bye to some of the popular lingo and find more eloquent ways to get our feelings across, or just stop using them altogether. I have compiled a list of irritating sayings and slang terms that we really need to stop turning to. No offense, but... This one really grinds my gears. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so obvious that whatever youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to say in the rest of this sentence is going to be offensive, so why even bother with this mini disclaimer? Is it really going to make things better? Is that really going to soften the blow of a sentiment like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, hey Billy. No offense, but I think your girlfriend is really fat and ugly, just thought you should know.â&#x20AC;? Yeah, I highly doubt it. Apart from the little plug being ineffective, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also annoying because if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be offensive, just own up to

it! If you want to insult Billyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s girlfriend that badly, just go for it. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t add your little, â&#x20AC;&#x153;No offense, but...â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fooling anybody (especially not Billy or his girlfriend). Or hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bright idea, maybe stop saying inherently offensive things. I cannot even count how many times Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve randomly had someone come up to me and say something like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;No offense, but (insert random racially offensive thought here),â&#x20AC;? and had the person pat my back and walk away nonchalantly like it was all OK. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t delude yourself into thinking this phrase works on anyone. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basic, yo. I am not even sure how this one cropped up. Urban Dictionary claims the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;basicâ&#x20AC;? refers to someone, usually the girl in question, who is â&#x20AC;&#x153;unsophisticated.â&#x20AC;? OK, kind of makes sense, but come on, what does this really mean? A girl is simple? Is she elementary? Are you referring to the acidity (or lack thereof) of her stomach? If she really is basic, then you might want to consider rushing her to the hospital because a basic stomach environment is not

healthy. But seriously, â&#x20AC;&#x153;basicâ&#x20AC;? is grossly overused and shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be the ideal word choice when there are options like â&#x20AC;&#x153;unculturedâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;unsophisticatedâ&#x20AC;? in our lexicon. English is a rich and generative language; donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t substitute its terms for random crap like â&#x20AC;&#x153;basic.â&#x20AC;? Sorry Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sorry. Um hello, are you still a preteen in middle school? Unless you are an angst ridden prepubescent child going through various identity changes, you have no reason to seriously use this term. This is probably one of the most pretentious phrases out there. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re about to be apologetic, but then youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re saying the complete opposite â&#x20AC;&#x201D; youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re apologetic about not being apologetic which basically renders the apology as useless, and the worst part is that thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the point. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s already obvious that you are not remorseful about whatever atrocity you committed â&#x20AC;&#x201D; apologizing about not caring just emphasizes that fact. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be childish, either say sorry or donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say anything. â&#x20AC;&#x153;YOLO.â&#x20AC;? You only live once. Thank

you, Drake, for introducing this delightfully insightful acronym into all of our lives. People definitely donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overuse this one. I have never heard anyone declare â&#x20AC;&#x153;YOLOâ&#x20AC;? right before gorging on dessert before dinner. And I have most definitely never heard of people utilizing â&#x20AC;&#x153;YOLOâ&#x20AC;? to justify risky behavior before either. Either way you use it, as someone has aptly pointed out before, â&#x20AC;&#x153;YOLOâ&#x20AC;? is actually pretty inaccurate. You live every day, but you only die once. So even if you are OK with using â&#x20AC;&#x153;YOLOâ&#x20AC;? as a precursor to petty occurrences, or as an excuse to make a fool out of yourself, remember that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being grossly inaccurate and maybe that will convince you out of using it! No offense, but if you use any of the above phrases or terms on a regular basis, then Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m probably rolling my eyes at you. But, you know, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just a basic chick so that would be expected. Sorry Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sorry for ruining your day because â&#x20AC;&#x153;YOLO.â&#x20AC;?

Chance The Rapper performs at Fluid Events Center in Champaign on Friday. Chance’s performance kicked off his Social Experiment Tour.

Chance the Rapper debuts tour, takes command of performance AMANDA TUGADE Staff writer

hicago-born Chance The Rapper kicked off his Social Experiment tour at Champaign’s Fluid Event Center, sponsored by the University’s chapter of Alpha Epsilon Pi. All proceeds from the concert were donated to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. The 20-year-old rapper delivered a venerated, hour-long performance to around 1,500 audience members who filled more than half of the recently renovated warehouse. Audience members seemed jaded while listening to DJ Spinn who, along with DJ Rashad, opened for Chance. DJ Spinn played bass-heavy, choruspleasing hip-hop mash ups as the rambunctious, overeager crowd loosely chanted, “We want Chance! We want Chance!” DJ Spinn’s reverberating sounds of mainstream hip-hop muffled the crowd’s voices, and he held his ground and continued to encourage the itching audience to be patient. After his set, the lights dimmed as Chance’s “Good Ass Intro” blasted from the speakers. The crowd cheered. Chance jumped on stage, grabbed the microphone from the stand and hyped up the crowd to join him. Soon, a glowing field of cellphone lights lit up the venue, trying to get the best picture of the rapper. The wait was finally over. Manically pacing from one

corner of the stage to the other, Chance transitioned to “Brain Cells,” a mellow, scatter-brained anthem that recants images of a psychedelic trip laced with a heavy dose of childhood memories. As the song ended, Chance disappeared from the stage, and a confused group of fans wondered if that was the end of the performance. Chance came back on the stage, having traded in his white marijuana-designed hoodie for a Chicago Black Hawks baseball T-shirt. With a three-piece instrumental band surrounding the outer stage, the rapper stood behind his microphone stand and dedicated “Everybody’s Something” to the ladies. With his eyes closed and hand clasped tightly around the microphone, Chance slowly gyrated his hips and sang, “Everybody’s somebody’s everything/I know you’re right/Nobody’s nothing/That’s right.” It marked the beginning of a captivating, souldriven performance that exemplified the rapper’s talent and artistry. Chance continued to paint masterpieces of illusion and reality, injecting pieces of a chaotic yet endearing Chicago with “Pusha Man,” while standing at the edge of the stage. He frequently made direct eye contact with the front-row audience members and stood still so that his fans could get the perfect photo. Returning behind his microphone stand, Chance asked, “Sounds so beautiful, don’t you agree?” Unexpectedly, the recogniz-

able Coldplay track, “Fix You,” began to play, and Chance began to sing. His distant, glossy-eyed stare into the spotlight was chilling as he continued to sing, “I will try to fix you.” Chance left the stage once more, leaving a starry-eyed crowd breathless. He then reappeared, now shirtless, and started to perform “Juice.” The rapper and the crowd’s excitement came back in full swing, and audience members rhythmically bobbed up and down, putting their hands in the air and singing the chorus. Two members of his crew joined Chance and leaped off the stage into the zealous crowd. The two were thrown back onto the stage as Chance began to perform “Interlude (That’s Love),” a song during which his live band grabbed hold of the audience’s attention and took the spotlight. “Chain Smoker” was the closing song of the performance, which energized the crowd and left them wanting more, chanting, “One more song! One more song!” With sweat dripping from his face, the gracious rapper came back to the stage, but he wasn’t alone. Chance and Vic Mensa closed out the show with “Cocoa Butter Kisses,” illustrating their dynamic, magnetic talents and clairvoyant support for one another — a sincere ending to the rapper’s fi rst performance of his Social Experiment tour.

TJ Wukitsch, senior vice president of KantWait, delivers an order from Far East Grocery while operating the grocery route. KantWait has five routes customers can choose from, which include one grocery, one lunch and three evening routes.

Delivery start-up brings groceries and restaurant orders to students BY KARYNA RODRIGUEZ SOCIAL MEDIA DIRECTOR

University graduate student Lei Jin had two reliable options for grocery shopping: County Market and Walmart. However, both were a hassle in different ways. “County is expensive but close,” Jin said. “Walmart is the other way around.” Traveling to and from Walmart could take up to two hours for Jin. He would have to take the 22 Illini bus to the Illini Union, and then connect to the 100 S Yellow bus, which would take him to the store. However, Jin has found a way to help eliminate this time-consuming hassle for his fellow students. He officially launched KantWait, a start-up restaurant and grocery delivery company, on Aug. 26. Since its creation, the service has partnered with Far East Grocery, Dunkin Donuts, Dairy Queen and Golden Harbor, and also delivers from Walmart and McDonald’s. KantWait also plans to add fresh produce and meats to its selection within the next week. According to TJ Wukitsch, senior vice president of KantWait, the company also hopes to partner with Taco Bell and Sitara Indian Restaurant and Lounge. Orders must be placed online through KantWait’s website, mei-

ris.com. Prices are the same or similar to the restaurants’ or stores prices, with a small delivery fee added. All charges must be paid when placing the order, and for orders of more than $50, there are no delivery charges. According to Jin, what sets KantWait apart from other delivery companies is its route-delivery shuttle, which works like a bus for restaurant and grocery orders. When a customer orders from the KantWait website, order selections are limited to what is listed. Customers then choose one of five routes of varying times and services. Between these five routes, there are twenty-two KantWait points in high-density populations. The customers then meet the driver at the nearest KantWait point along the route they selected to pick up their orders. Recently, the service added two new evening routes. “It’s like you are letting your food take the bus instead of taking a taxi,” Jin said. “So it’s very efficient and cheap.” Wukitsch drives the grocery route and said if he had to walk up to everyone’s door, each delivery would take him about five minutes per person. But with everyone coming to one spot along the route, it takes him 20 seconds or less to deliver each order.

“The reason we can charge people so little is because they do a little portion of the work for us, but it adds up to a lot,” Wukitsch said. Neha Nigam, senior in LAS, said she has used the service twice because she does not have a car on campus. “I think their prices are definitely better than if I had a car and had to drive to these places.” Nigam said. Once, Nigam mixed up the time she was supposed to pick up her order. Although it is KantWait policy to continue on to the next delivery if someone does not show up, they made a point to store the order and deliver it at a time she would be there. “I love that their customer service is really, really great. They make a point of, if anything ever goes wrong, making sure they reimburse you in some way,” Nigam said. According to Wukitsch, this kind of customer service is a priority for KantWait. “Everything is so impersonal now that there isn’t a whole lot of human aspect left ... and even though we’re a website, we still want to have that,” Wukitsch said.

The Illinois football team let another one slip through its hands. The Illini had nobody to blame but themselves for a 42-3 loss to Michigan State on Saturday at Memorial Stadium. Trailing the Spartans 7-3 just before halftime, Michigan State quarterback Connor Cook scrambled on a 3rd-and-25 and tossed the ball toward the end zone. Illini defenders Jaylen Dunlap and Eaton Spence both had a chance to pull in an interception, but the ball bounced off both their hands and fell right into the arms of Michigan State wide receiver Bennie Fowler in

a 31-yard field goal on the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fi rst possession â&#x20AC;&#x201D; after an Illinois touchdown was called back on a holding penalty. Michigan State appeared to be on the verge of taking the lead late in the first quarter when Cook fumbled at the goal line and Illinois recovered in the end zone. But the Illini gave the ball right back, fumbling it on a reverse play. The Spartans took advantage of a short field and were able to punch it in for the go-ahead touchdown. The touchdown was the onset of 42 unanswered points for Michigan State. Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best chance at the end zone came in the second quarter with the ball at the Michi-

gan State 1-yard line. The Illini failed to convert on third down and then gambled on fourth, going for the touchdown and failing to convert on a Jon Davis carry. The Spartans took the ball at their own 1 and drove the length of the field, capping off the drive with the touchdown that went through Dunlapâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fi ngers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The things that are continually hurting us is ourselves,â&#x20AC;? head coach Tim Beckman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had penalties on third down in that drive, but we end up beating ourselves.â&#x20AC;?

Offensive trick plays backfire for Illinois Michigan State on Saturday. For the second consecutive week, the Illini fumbled a double reverse which immediately led to a short field and quick touchdown for the opponent. Last Saturday against Wisconsin, quarterbacks Nathan Scheelhaase and Aaron Bailey couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hook up on the lateral, but this week wide receivers Ryan Lankford and Martize Barr were the culprits.

Trick plays have been a staple of Bill Cubitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense. The offensive coordinator implements gadget and trick plays to open up a defense. Early in the 2013 season, such plays elicited audible â&#x20AC;&#x153;oohsâ&#x20AC;? from the crowd as yards piled up behind the flash and misdirection.

The Spartans gained 477 yards to the Illiniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 128. Number of carries for running back Donovonn Young. Young had rushed 66 times in the previous six games. Yards Michigan State drove on its final possession of the first half before scoring a touchdown to extend its lead to 14-3.

GAME TO FORGET Ryan Lankford

Lankford might have played his final game in orange and blue. The senior wide receiver had one catch for 22 yards but a fumble on a double reverse set up Michigan Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first touchdown. On the play, he tried to lateral to wide receiver Martize Barr but was hit and the pitch went astray. Lankford injured his shoulder on the play and head coach Tim Beckman said the senior was â&#x20AC;&#x153;probably out for the season.â&#x20AC;?

ry as it might, Illinois football just couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help itself from being Illinois football. Neither defense nor offense could be commended for what was an all-around atrocious performance as the Illini descended from mediocrity to helplessness in a 42-3 loss to Michigan State. It was a few plays here and there that slowly peeled the lid off this game and let all the ugliness out. The most memorable of these was a touchdown pass thrown by Michigan Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Connor Cook with just seconds left in the first half. But the trouble didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start there. It started for Illinois when its first drive was gutted by a holding penalty against center Alex Hill. The hold enabled and subsequently cost a touchdown pass to tight end Jon Davis. A Taylor Zalewski field goal gave Illinois an advantage â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and hope, as the team whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scored first has one each of Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; first six games â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but left four points off the board that mattered at the time. Tims Banks and Beckman, speaking of their defense, praised the effort in the first half. Banks said his team had a good week of practice and had made strides. He thought his players showed some of that progress early. In the first half, perhaps for the first time this year, it was Bill Cubitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense that left more to be desired. A timely Michigan State fumble on the goal-line gave Illinois a chance to avoid going down and expand its lead. The first quarter came to an end and allowed Illinois to flip sides of the field and play with the wind at its back. Cubit called for a double reverse, and like they have more and more lately, the trick plays worked against the Illini and not for them. Ryan Lankford took the handoff from Scheelhaase and, despite Michigan State busting through the line and effectively blowing up the play, pitched it back to Martize Barr, who couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

handle it. Michigan State recovered. Later in the second quarter, Illinois drove on Michigan State again, getting the ball eventually to the 1-yard line. Aaron Bailey, goal-line bruiser extraordinaire, was not inserted. Donovonn Young, who has recently been relegated to second string and short-yardage situations, was not inserted (he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play all game). Two runs later, Illinois has given the ball back to Michigan State. Enter the 99-yard drive and the soul-crushing, doubletipped, third-and-25 touchdown pass. Fade to black for both the first half and Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sense of optimism. Lankfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mistake would be his last of the day, as he was chewed out by Cubit before heading to the locker room with an injury that Beckman later said was likely the end of his season. He is a senior. Beckman emphasized positivity in the postgame press conference. He insisted that there were positives to draw from the game. He broke the news on Lankford and said Lank would continue to lead the team â&#x20AC;&#x153;by not playing.â&#x20AC;? Banks was similar. He emphasized the good and acknowledged without dwelling on the bad. The players have to temper their expectations and accept their fate. They are not part of a top Big Ten program. They are the team thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fighting to prove it belongs after losing its last 17 conference games. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to put away the notion that this team is a fringe competitor in the conference. Losing to Nebraska and Wisconsin happens. Losing to Michigan State happens, too, but not in the capacity with which it just did Saturday in front of 45,000-plus fans. Not unless your team has deepseeded problems it needs to overcome. Effort, competitiveness, tackling, covering receivers, shedding blocks in the trenches â&#x20AC;&#x201D; these are elementary defensive problems to have. On offense, Cubit relies upon trick plays because he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

Illinois solidified itself as an underdog from here on out.

GAME TO REMEMBER Justin DuVernois

The punter boomed a 61-yard punt, his longest of the season, and averaged 40.6 yards per attempt on the day. DuVernois had to deal with sizable wind gusts blowing to the south and countered by adopting a rugby-style kick while going into the breeze. His net average of 39.0 yards per punt was thanks to the low hang time of his punts and had only one of his five punts actually returned.

Illini come back strong after slow start BY SEAN HAMMOND SENIOR WRITER

It wasn’t pretty early and didn’t matter in anyone’s standings, but the Illinois basketball team beat McKendree 101-66 in an exhibition game at State Farm Center on Thursday night. The Illini overcame a slow start, trailing the Division-II Bearcats by as many as 11 in the first half. But an 11-3 run late in the first half pulled the Illini even at 35-35. They took the lead half a minute later at 39-37 and never looked back. Point guard Tracy Abrams led Illinois with 16 points and freshman guard Jaylon Tate added 13. “Nobody wants to get down 11,” head coach John Groce said. “But I really was curious to see — and I didn’t call a timeout on purpose — I wanted to see if they could fight their way through it and they did. I thought they showed great poise. We didn’t panic, we didn’t flinch, we hung in there and stayed the course.” Abrams gave Illini fans a scare on the team’s first defensive possession when he crumpled to the floor after a McKendree basket. He came up limping, favoring his left ankle, and was taken to the locker room to get checked out by the medical staff. But he returned not long after and checked right back into the game. The injury didn’t appear to faze him the rest of the game. “I just tweaked my ankle a little bit,” Abrams said. “I retaped and was just thinking: ‘I’ve got to find a way to help my team out.’ We pulled it together as a group, and we looked pretty good.” Illinois went into halftime with a 47-39 lead. The game wasn’t much of a contest in the second half. It gave Illini nation its first glimpse of the new-look Illini. Groce’s starting lineup consisted of veterans Abrams, Joseph Bertrand and Nnanna Egwu, along with transfers Rayvonte Rice and Jon Ekey. Rice also scored 13 points, 10 of them in the first half, and Ekey added another 12. All five Illinois freshmen saw playing time. Tate saw the most of any of them, backing up Abrams at point guard. He led the team with 25 minutes played and scored six of his 13 points from the free throw line.

Illinois’ Tracy Abrams drives to the basket during the exhibition game against McKendree at State Farm Center on Thursday. The Illini won 101-66. “He’s got an ability to lead and communicate,” Groce said of Tate. “I noticed that watching him prior to him coming. He loves to learn, (he’s a) student of the game, he has accepted his role. Sometimes it’s difficult for a freshman to do that.” McKendree shooting guard Clinton

Happe led the Bearcats with 15 points on 3-for-6 shooting from 3-point range. Guard Jeremy Price put in another 12, but it wasn’t enough. Illinois outscored McKendree 54-27 in the second half and outrebounded the Bearcats 46-29 overall. Groce said his squad was better than

it was a week ago during the Orange and Blue scrimmage and, despite the slow start, the improvement showed on the court. Illinois will play its second exhibition game on Nov. 3 against Northwood University. “Now we’ve got work to do between now and a week from Sunday,” Groce

said. “We’ve got time to practice, put some new things in and brush up on the things that we need to improve upon from tonight’s game.”

Newcomers show promise in exhibition victory MICHAEL WONSOVER Basketball columnist

S

even players debuted for the Illinois men’s basketball team against Division-II McKendree on Thursday. From the get-go, their impact to the team was apparent. Transfers Jon Ekey and Rayvonte Rice started the game for the Illini and helped Illinois get out of an early funk (Illinois was down by as many as 11 in

the first half). Ekey draws comparisons to Tyler Griffey, but the ISU transfer has more athleticism and physicality than the departed senior forward. Ekey crashed the boards, finishing with six rebounds and a team-high four offensive rebounds. He also effectively set numerous high screens while leaking out to the perimeter, where he shot 1-for3 from behind the arc. Ekey has graded out as the best player on Illinois during practice so far and he showed why on Thursday, finishing with 12 points while shooting 5-for-7 from the field. When Illinois wasn’t clicking, Rice helped stabilize the offense. Rice excels

at creating his own shot near the rim, using his strength to fend off players at the basket. His crossovers received plenty of oohs and ahs from the State Farm Center crowd on Thursday. Rice uses those moves to draw fouls as he led the team with eight free throw attempts. There wasn’t a player on McKendree that could keep Rice in front of him. The freshmen also put on a show Thursday. At one point Groce put out a lineup including freshmen Jaylon Tate, Kendrick Nunn, Malcolm Hill and Maverick Morgan, and it actually turned out to be effective. The ball was moving quicker than any other rotation the Illini

used against McKendree. The adrenaline of playing in their first games could’ve been a factor, but Groce’s fastpaced lineup felt even quicker with the freshmen on the floor. Tate’s Simeon teammate, Nunn, had the play of the game when he threw down a left-handed dunk on a fast break. Morgan, Colbert and Hill also had impressive debuts, as the trio combined to shoot 10-of-17 from the floor. Dealing with the influx of new players is going to be Groce’s biggest challenge during the early going of this season. There isn’t a Brandon Paul or D.J. Richardson on this year’s team to rely on to

make Groce’s job any easier. It’s going to be a process before the team builds chemistry, as displayed by an 8-19 deficit out of the gate against McKendree. Joseph Bertrand, Tracy Abrams and Nnanna Egwu bring experience to this young Illini squad, but they aren’t going to be able to carry the team. The newcomers are going to have to step up if Illinois’ going to succeed this season, and on Thursday they showed they may just have what it takes.

Illini soccer beats Spartans, keeps tournament hopes alive BY LANRE ALABI STAFF WRITER

After losing to No. 7 Michigan, the Illinois soccer team rebounded with a win over Michigan State to maintain its Big Ten tournament hopes. Heading into the weekend, The Illini (9-7-2, 4-5-1 Big Ten) needed three wins in its final three games to guarantee a spot in the Big Ten Tournament. Head coach Janet Rayfield emphasized the importance of the team’s control of its destiny. The windy Friday night contest saw close competition from Michigan and Illinois as the teams exchanged chances throughout the game. The Wolverines’ trio of Meghan Toohey, Madisson Lewis and Tori McCombs was a constant thorn in Illinois defense’s side as Michigan’s offense used its speed often. Lewis broke the deadlock in the 24th minute and a professional foul of the speedy Toohey was the template for Michigan’s second, 12 minutes later. The difference was the Wolverines’ top-ranked defense as the nation’s best backline held the Illini scoreless. Michigan’s high defensive line congested the center of the field and many of Illinois’ shots came from long range.

“We played great everywhere else on the field (except in front of the goal),” forward Janelle Flaws said. “Our movement off the ball and the chances we created were great but just didn’t get the finishing part.” The 2-0 loss left Illinois with 10 points in ninth position, one outside the final qualification spot. Sunday was the final regular season home game for six Illinois seniors. After seven games on the sideline, captain Vanessa DiBernardo joined fellow seniors Kassidy Brown, Megan Pawloski, Christina Farrell, Kristen Giermann and Lauren Parkin in the starting lineup. “It was an emotional day and everyone said: ‘Play for the seniors, play for each other.’ And I think everyone definitely did that (Sunday),” said junior midfielder Allie Osoba, a member of the 2010 matriculation class. The Illini began the game with the large share of possession, as the Spartans were content to play conservatively. Michigan State’s counterattacking game plan almost paid dividends as the best chance of the half fell to its forward Paige Wester. As a cross from the right flank sailed over Illinois

goalie Claire Wheatley’s head, Wester ran on to head the ball at an empty net, but pressure from Illinois’ Farrell sent the header wide of the left upright post. Both sides created better chances after the half, but neither team was able to put the ball in the net until the 79th minute. Pawloski lined up for one of her numerous flip throws of the game, which the Spartans had trouble clearing as they had all afternoon. Two defenders misjudged the throw and as the ball bounced over their heads, Osoba stole in behind them to slam home her fifth goal of the season. The tally by the team’s second top scorer was followed by an effort from the NCAA’s scorers chart leader, Flaws, striking a 22-yard free kick into the top right corner of the MSU goal to seal the win. The goal was Flaws’ 19th of the season, breaking the Illinois record Emily Brown set in 1999. The defensive fortitude of both sides was the story of the day with both sides held scoreless for nearly 80 minutes, but one team’s backline was able to hold out longer than the other’s and Rayfield knows the reason why. “We talk about defense being

After losing their last two games with a combined 7-0, Illinois’ high-powered offense and improving defense appeared to

have hit a wall. With the last game of the regular season at Minnesota coming up and a playoff berth looming, the team is hoping that it has found its footing at the right time. “This defense is maturing,” Rayfield said. “It’s a good time

for that because we certainly need to go into Minnesota with some confidence in our defense and in our attack.”

Volleyball bounces back from midweek loss with 3-1 win at Wisconsin BY BLAKE PON STAFF WRITER

For the second game in a row, the Illinois volleyball took the first two sets of the match. This time, though, the Illini didn’t let their opponent back into the game, rolling to a 3-1 road victory against No. 16 Wisconsin. Execution has been a word that has summed up the Illini’s season, more or less, and Illinois did just that in Madison, Wis., on Sunday, winning by scores of 25-22, 28-26, 10-25, 25-22. The win evens the Illini’s record in conference play at 5-5, but the team still sits at 9-11

overall. The Badgers fall to 6-4 in the Big Ten and 17-5 overall. “It was a good win against a very good team in a tough environment to play,” head coach Kevin Hambly said. “I thought we were tough. ... It was an important victory for us.” The victory comes just four days after from a collapse at Northwestern in which Illinois took the first two sets of the match only to give away the next three. After taking the first two sets against Wisconsin, the Illini came out of the break struggling to score. “We’re not afraid to men-

tion what happened against Northwestern,” sophomore setter Alexis Viliunas said of the team’s mindset going into the fourth set at Wisconsin. “We talked about protecting each other, protecting our school and just protecting Illinois volleyball. We went into the fourth set with a fighting mentality, and I think it really helped us.” Viliunas and junior outside hitter Liz McMahon stood out for the Illini. McMahon led the match with 20 kills on 40 attempts to hit .375 on the day. She has had back-to-back games with at least 20 kills, as she

reached 21 against Northwestern. Viliunas turned in a complete performance, registering 44 assists and a career-high 20 digs to go along with three kills. “(Viliunas) had one of her better matches for sure,” Hambly said. “She did a nice job of executing the game plan, attacking people the way we wanted to. I thought she played physical at the net, often blocking and attacking. She had 20 digs, and I thought she made some nice plays.” Despite besting the Illini in kills (59-57), attempts (174-162) and hitting percentage (.218-

.204), the Badgers could not crack the Illinois defense in key moments. Viliunas and Hambly also said the team’s serve-pass performance also contributed to the win. “We served really aggressively, we were able to get them out of system,” Viliunas said. “Our passing was good, I was able to set the ball around and get it to whoever I wanted to, so I was happy with it, and I think everyone else was, too.” The midway point of conference play also marks a change in the schedule for Illinois. After beginning the season with

games strictly on the weekends, the Illini finished their first of four weeks with a midweek match. While Hambly and Viliunas said the team was indifferent to the change, the gap in between matches allows Illinois to prepare one match at a time. With more time to prepare, the Illini may finally be able to win consecutive matches and get back to .500 for the first time since early September in the team’s bid for a NCAA tournament berth.

FOOTBALL down on the first possession of the second half, the Spartans would never look back. Cook finished 15-for-16 passing with 208 yards and three touchdowns. Running back Jeremy Langford rushed for 104 yards and two touchdowns. The Spartans offense finished 14-for-16 on third-down conversions. One of the two failed conversions was the quarterback kneel to end the game. “We had chances to get off the field on third down,” said linebacker Mason Monheim, who finished with a team-leading 14 tackles. “We just didn’t make that play. I’m not going to pinpoint it on one thing or another, we just didn’t make that play.”

Lankford ‘probably out for the season’ Illini head coach Tim Beckman said wide receiver Ryan Lankford is likely lost for the season after injuring his shoulder on a failed reverse play in the second quarter against Michigan State at Memorial Stadium on Saturday.

OFFENSE an offside penalty. There’s always something.” The Illini had a chance on to go up 7-0 on their opening drive of the game, but a holding penalty on center Alex Hill negated a touchdown. Illinois eventually settled for a 31-yard field goal. Despite the lack of success over the past few weeks with trick plays, Cubit was not backing off his philosophy of creative play-calling. “We’re not going to be able to move the ball just playing base offense,” Cubit said. “We’re just not at that point.” A second trick play came in the second quarter with first and goal from the 5-yard line, and the Illini looking to take the lead. A jetting wide receiver took a handoff and quickly gave it back to Ferguson hoping to misdirect the defense, but the running back was hit in the backfield for a four-yard loss. The Illini would eventually be stopped from the 1-yard line on

FROM 1B

SILL believe the team can move the ball in its base offense. Illinois solidified itself as an underdog from here on out. It came clean as a conference bottom-feeder. It can compete with better teams in the conference, but only in the right circumstances, and even then, for how long? In the worst of ways, Illinois football came home Saturday.

“Honestly, I think he’s probably out for the season,” Beckman said in his postgame news conference. “We’re not for sure right now. But to be honest with you, after seeing it, he’s probably gone for the year.” Official word likely won’t come until Beckman’s weekly news conference on Monday. Lankford is second on the team with 308 receiving yards on 15 catches. He has one receiving touchdown and another one rushing. Quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase hadn’t heard the news about his best deep-ball threat until the media asked him about it. “Yeah, that’s news to me. I didn’t know that,” Scheelhaase said. “So, um, next man up. I think our receiver group is as deep as it gets. It’s definitely a next-man-up mentality. We’ve got to get guys healthy, got to get Steve Hull back in there.” Hull did not play against Michigan State after suffering a head injury against Wisconsin a week ago. The Illini will need his presence if Lankford is ruled out for the season.

When it looked like the Illini were about to be out of a rut, they fell right back into it. The Illini hockey team (7-6-1) won in dramatic fashion Friday night, scoring two late third period goals to defeat Lindenwood (4-5-1) 3-2 in overtime, but familiar penalty-killing troubles led Illinois to a 6-3 loss on Saturday. It looked as if the team’s season was about to take a dramatic shift in the right direction when Illini captain Austin Bostock netted a game-tying goal late in the third and then scored just 31 seconds into overtime Friday night to snap the team’s six-game losing streak. The Big Pond quickly took on a playoff-like atmosphere after Bostock banked a shot in off of Lindenwood goaltender Linus Ahgren’s stick from behind the net and the euphoric

dog pile which ensued after the senior’s overtime game-winner was everything the Illini’s season was poised to be just two months ago. But while the come-frombehind victory erased a six-game losing streak, it didn’t erase the problems that have plagued Illinois throughout the season. The Illini allowed three power play goals Saturday night, while even giving up a shorthanded goal to Lindenwood sophomore Stephen Bopp on a five-minute major power play. Trailing by three goals, the power play provided the Illini an opportunity to get back in the game, since it was a major penalty and if they scored, the Lindenwood player would not have been let out of the penalty box. “We had decent traffic tonight on the power play and got a lot of good looks, but we just need to produce,” head coach Nick Fab-

brini said after Saturday night’s game, nearly at a loss for words. “Getting good looks is great, but it only takes you so far. It doesn’t win you games.” Fabbrini said the team needs to improve on finishing and putting the puck in the net, a problem exacerbated by Lindenwood defenders’ shot blocking throughout the weekend. The Illini scored six goals this weekend, one more than they had throughout their six-game losing streak. They also had 82 shots between both games against Lindenwood, after averaging just 21.16 shots per game during the losing streak. Illinois has talked about putting pucks in the net in order to allow shots to go in through traffic or cause rebound opportunities, much like Bostock’s gametying goal that deflected in from behind the net on Friday night. Despite Illinois’ continued

trouble on the penalty kill, the team looked refreshed with an offense that finally started producing goals this weekend. Junior Jon Langan, who scored the first Illini goal Friday night, said the team can be a national contender if it continues to play like it did during its 3-2 overtime victory, while Fabbrini said he could feel a collective weight lift off the team’s shoulders after scoring three goals in just over eight minutes. The Illini’s 3-2 overtime victory Friday night flashed a glimpse of what the team can do when in full-stride, a potential Bostock recognizes. “That’s the team we want to be,” Bostock said. “That’s the team we knew we were going to be coming into this season.”

Cross-country dominates at Illini Open BY THOMAS DONLEY

The goals from here on out have to change, and the focus has to be improvement. No room to worry about a bowl game. Penn State looms in a week, and Illinois will have to go to a place where a winning culture serves as a foundation for a successful program, which for Illinois is about as far from home as it gets.

Illinois’ Jon Langan controls the puck during the game against Lindenwood on Saturday. The Illini lost 6-3.

consecutive plays, and when the Spartans went 99 yards back the other way right before halftime, the momentum was firmly on the their side. After two drives deep into Michigan State territory, the Illinois offense couldn’t move the ball or stay on the field. The unit finished with 128 total yards and only 12:56 of possession time in the final 45 minutes of the game. The Illini set season-lows in passing yards, rushing yards, total offense and points against versus the Spartans. The Illini travel next week to Penn State, which had the 16thbest defense in the country entering Saturday’s games. “Ultimately, we have to stop feeling sorry for ourselves,” Scheelhaase said. “No one else is going to feel sorry for us. We’re no longer a young or inexperienced team, we’ve played seven games. Honestly, no one really cares. Penn State doesn’t really care how young or inexperienced we are.”

The Illinois men’s cross-country team rounded out the regular season by hosting the Illini Open on Friday. Illini sophomore Sam Telfer finished second overall with a time of 25 minutes, 19 seconds. Jordan Hebert of Illinois, running unattached, won the race with a time of 24:57. Hebert paced a field of 35, including teams from Eastern Illinois, Loyola and Bradley as well as 10 unattached runners, at the UI Arboretum. The Illinois team consisted of only Telfer, sophomore Jereme Atchison and freshman Ryan Burgoon. Atchison finished fifth overall with a time of 25:37, while Burgoon took eighth with

a time of 25:57. “I was really excited with how we ran today,” head coach Jake Stewart said. “The first five finishers are guys that are affiliated with the team. We had a really good day.” Unattached runners Joe Cowlin (25:24) and Alex Gold (25:31) finished third and fourth, respectively, giving Illinois runners a sweep of the top five. Alex Notton took 13th with a time of 26:16. Trevor Kuehr finished 18th with a time of 26:33, nearly placing every Illinois runner in the top half of the field. Both Notton and Kuehr ran unattached. “Today I was trying to take some guys through at a certain pace,” said Hebert, a junior on

the track team who is redshirting for cross-country this fall. “My main focus was to try to get them through the race, but you’ve always got to compete, whether it’s against the person ahead of you or the time.” Hebert has been running unattached in races for Illinois this season in preparation for track and field season. “For me, it’s different,” Hebert said. “This is the last time I’m running before track season, and that’s when it’s really going to count.” Since Friday marked the end of the regular season, most of the Illinois cross-country team will not run competitively again until this spring. Twelve members of the cross-country team

are also on the track and field roster. “I think the younger guys probably ran with a little more urgency today, knowing that now we go back into training for a few months before the indoor track season starts,” Stewart said. “I think they want to use the momentum of running well here going into indoors and outdoors.” For the members of the postseason team, the real competition will start this weekend at the Big Ten Championships in West Lafayette, Ind., on Nov. 3. The NCAA Midwest regional will be run on Nov. 15.
