Proposed bill to aid undocumented students in Illinois
Nine Illinois universities propose new bill BY ADAM KAZ STAFF WRITER
For 1,500 undocumented students attending public universities in Illinois, one clause often limits their opportunity to receive financial aid: legal residency in the U.S. “I know a few (undocumented) students who excelled at their academics in high school, who had really great scores, achieved extremely high educational attainment, but were unable to go to college because they were unable to gather the money in conjunction with scholarships, merit, outside sources to go to college,” said Amorita Antoine, junior in Urban Planning and La Casa Cultural House employee. A coalition of students, administrators and faculty
members from universities across the state have decided to combine efforts to combat this situation. Nine Illinois Universities, including the University’s Chicago and Urbana campuses, have contributed to the creation of the Student Access to College and Career Education for Statewide Success Bill, ACCESS. According to the bill’s factsheet, the bill would provide legal authority to four-year public universities to give aid to undocumented students who enroll there. Mark Chiang, a professor of English and Asian American studies at the University’s Chicago campus, serves as a co-chair for the task force behind the bill. “I feel that undocumented students that come to this country, who come here with their parents, and have lived here, in most cases, for nearly all their lives... deserve to have a chance to fulfi ll their educational goals that they’ve worked so hard to achieve,” Chiang
said. He added that undocumented students who don’t have access to fi nancial aid face bigger obstacles when trying to achieve higher education goals. Since he joined the task force this fall, Chiang has pushed for new ways to encourage state legislators to support the bill. In order to support the bill, undocumented students contributed testimonials about their struggle to pay their way through college. “The strategy is fairly straightforward. When people go to visit (legislators), generally it’s a group of students with a faculty person or a community organizer,” he said. “And very often some of the students themselves are undocumented, and they’re simply telling their story about the hurdles that they face and the difficulties that they’ve gone through in trying to simply graduate from college.”

Trudie Jackson (Navajo), a Graduate Student in American Indian Studies-Tribal Leadership & Governance of Arizona State University, speaks about her experiences of a transgender Native American to a group of students at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign on Nov. 3, 2015.
Graduate student speaks on healthcare for LGBT minorities BY VIVIENNE HENNING STAFF WRITER
When Trudie Jackson returned to school in 2009 to earn her degree in social work, she realized the need to address LGBT health. As a case manager in the human service field, she was supposed to serve 15 clients but ended up with a caseload of over 24 clients. Jackson, graduate student in American Indian Studies and Tribal Leadership and Governance at Arizona State University, is an advocate for proper health care rights for LGBT identifying Native Americans and spoke about the challenges they face at the Medical Services Building on Tuesday. Native American and Alaskan Native health care has long been carried out by the Indian Health Services, IHS. But those who identify as LGBT have not received the same level of health care services as those who don’t identify as LGBT. Jackson represented the LGBT-identifying Native American community at the American Indian Physician Conference where she gave a presentation to the IHS director. “I asked: When is the IHS going to take strong, critical matters into addressing the increasing number of HIV/AIDS patients in Native Americans within

the country?” Jackson said. “If it impacts your family, your immediate family, will it finally be addressed? Because we are losing American Indians who are asking for help with HIV/AIDS.” Another barrier to the Native American LGBT community is the concept of having access to proper healthcare and outlets to speak and raise awareness in urban versus rural environments, as many of these sessions are in Washington or IHS headquarters in Maryland. “LGBT Native Americans or Alaskan Natives may not have the money or the resources to travel to the East Coast to have their voices heard,” Jackson said. “I’m hoping that with these sessions that the IHS will seriously look at developing and implementing LGBT clinics at all IHS sites across the country, so LGBT care can be provided to all American Indians and Alaskan Native.” Jackson also voiced how at times she is the only Native American LGBT representative working with community partners in Phoenix on raising awareness. “If you’re sincere about your community, raise your voice so your population is heard because you may be the only voice in the room for your community,” she
said. “But that voice is powerful because when you get that funding for your population, you’re doing a service to your community to help get outreach and prevention education for the population that you’re advocating for.” She also spoke about the importance of frontline workers being sensitive and open-minded when reaching out to Native American communities with LGBT individuals. “The frontline workers, the people that do community outreach, are the ones that really hold the key to the community because they interact with the community,” Jackson said. “When they build that trust with the LGBT community individuals will share that name within their circle.” Similarly, Jackson stressed the importance of proper training for health care providers in interacting with LGBT patients. “When you walk into a patient’s room and they may appear different compared to what’s on the chart, always ask how they would like to be addressed,” Jackson said. “That is the key because that will make the patient aware that you are open-minded and that you are non-judgmental in the LGBT community.”

Moody’s Credit Service negative outlook raises concerns BY STEPHEN NYE STAFF WRITER
Six Illinois public universities credit ratings were recently lowered by Moody’s Investor Service, although the University and Illinois State University managed to avoid credit rating downgrades. Moody’s Investor Service rates organizations such as countries, states and universities on a scale from Aaa to C. Baa3 is the lowest prime rating an organization can receive. The University and ISU avoided credit downgrades but Moody’s still reported that the outlook is negative. According to Moody’s, the relatively high amount of available or liquid assets the University has access to was one of the reasons its Aa3 credit rating was maintained. However, the lack of a state budget caused Moody’s to rate the University’s future outlook as negative.
Dr. Dorothee Schneider, a lecturer in history and communications chair for the Non-Tenured Faculty Coalition, pointed to the University’s ample endowments, “fantastic research” and rising applicant rate as reasons Moody’s did not downgrade the school’s ratings. “The University has squirreled away enough money to keep its operations running for one year without help from the state,” Schneider said. “The U. of I. has a rising number of applicants ready to pay full tuition. For example, the number of international students has doubled in the last ten years.” Schneider also said the University only derives 15 percent of its operating budget from the state, compared to Eastern Illinois University’s 45 percent. Sch neider said the effects of the state budget standoff can already be seen in the freezing
of across-the-board pay raises. Dana Rabin, associate professor of history, said she is concerned with the state of the University’s fiscal outlook and its effect on employees. “It’s got me very worried,” Rabin said. “There’s a great deal of uncertainty at the moment.” Students have also expressed concern about the state of the University’s fi nances. Kevin Riordan, a sophomore in LAS, said he is surprised that the topic has not been made a bigger issue among students on campus. Riordan said he hopes the budget issues can be resolved, ideally without increased privatization of the University or an increase in tution. Wyatt Beaty, a junior in LAS, said he looks forward to seeing the budget issues resolved quickly. He said

Mobile educational tour HungerU comes to University for event Tour to educate college students on world hunger DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
HungerU, a mobile tour that aims to educate college students on world hunger, will host an event at the University Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the Main Quad. The HungerU tour visits universities around the country to help
spread awareness about hunger in America and across the world. The event will feature a trailer with tents and iPads where participants can take a quiz on global food security. For each quiz, a meal will be donated. There will also be a cornhole game and a prize wheel. The organization is strictly mobile but HungerU works through the Farm Journal Foundation, which is based in Philadelphia. The trailer has traveled to over 60 campuses around the country and is comprised of four people.
Mallory Weber, HungerU’s program manager, said a major goal of the tour is to simply inform students about the nature of hunger in the modern world. “We can’t fi ght something if we don’t know it exists,” said Weber. “We’re trying to get the conversation started, get people talking about it, get people involved through donating, helping out at food kitchen, spreading awareness.”

hold,” Chiang said. “We’re gearing up, we have a number of supporters already, a number of representatives and senators in the Illinois State Legislature who have said they will support the bill, but they will vote for the bill when it comes up for a vote.” Although Chiang does not think the bill will be brought to the senate until budget issues are resolved, he plans
to continue his effort for the bill. The difficulties undocumented students face in independently paying for their education is seen across the University, Antoine said. Chiang will talk about his hopes for the bill at a Nov. 11 conference at the University’s Chicago campus. “It’s one thing to get students into the college,
into school, but it’s another thing to keep the retentions up,” she said. “These students that I’ve spoken to are worrying about the next semester when they should be focusing on this semester. They’re worrying about next semester and how they’re going to get those funds to continue with their education.”
tive because of “the potential of continued reduced or delayed state funding.” Western Illinois University, Eastern Illinois University and Governor’s State University have dropped to a Baa3 rating , Northeastern University dropped to Baa2 and both Northern Illinois University and Southern Illinois University dropped to
Baa1. The futures of all six universities have “negative outlooks,” according to a report by Moody’s. The drops in ratings for these universities have varying causes, but the most common and prominent reason is the lack of a state budget and projected cuts to state spending on Illinois universities.
According to a report about Northeastern University, Moody’s research service said that, “Given expected state funding cuts and the lack of appropriations thus far through fiscal 2016, the university’s reliance on the state will place a strain on operations and liquidity.”

Seven passengers kicked off Spirit Airlines flight, some claim racial discrimination LOS ANGELES — Seven passengers were booted from a Spirit Airlines flight at Los Angeles International Airport on Monday night, and one of them said they were discriminated against because they were black. The onboard commotion began about 7:15 p.m. when an African-American couple raised concerns about an overbooked seat on Flight 868 to Dallas, said Officer Rob Pedregon, an airport police spokesman. A woman was sitting in one of their seats, so the flight crew moved the couple three to four rows forward to another pair of seats, he said. But the male passenger was still upset and became loud and boisterous despite
the crew’s request to stop, Pedregon said. Police were called when he became angry, he said. The couple got off the flight and were rescheduled on a later one that same night, Pedregon said. But five passengers inside the plane became upset about the doublebooking incident and began complaining, he said. The chatter among the group of passengers, he said, escalated and caused a disturbance. The flight crew asked them stop but they continued, Pedregon said. That’s when the captain told the passengers that they had to leave. The airline booked the passengers on another flight.

Seattle gum wall to be cleaned
BY EVAN BUSH TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
Once named the world’s second-germiest tourist attraction, Pike Place Market’s gum wall in Seattle will soon be scrubbed of 20 years’ buildup of sugary stickum. Emily Crawford, a spokeswoman for the Pike Place Market Preservation & Development Authority, PDA, said the gum wall is cleaned “every other month” by the PDA with a steamer, but this will be the first time all the gum is removed from the original wall. The PDA has hired a contractor, Cascadian Building Maintenance, “because it’s going to be a very large
job,” Crawford said. Kelly Foster, of Cascadian Building Maintenance, said the gum will be removed with an “industrial steam machine that works like a pressure washer.” The machine will melt the gum with 280-degree steam; it will fall the ground and a two- to threeman crew will collect the gum in five-gallon buckets. “This is probably the weirdest job we’ve done,” Foster said. Crawford said the PDA estimates about one million pieces of gum are adhered to the walls of Post Alley, in some places six inches thick. The job is expected to cost $4,000. More accurate figures on the amount of gum could be forthcoming. “We want to
weigh it,” she said. Crawford said the gum needs to be cleaned off the walls to preserve the historic buildings in the Market district. “It was never part of charter or the history of the Market to have the walls covered with gum,” she said. “Gum is made of chemicals, sugar, additives. Things that aren’t good for us. I can’t imagine it’s good for brick.” Crawford said cleaning will begin Nov. 10. The job will likely take three or four days. Colorful globs of salivated chew will no doubt return shortly, the PDA expects. “We’re not saying it can’t come back,” Crawford said.
“We need to wipe the canvas clean and keep fresh.” The PDA hopes that fresh start hinders gum-wall sprawl. In recent years, Crawford said gum has advanced to new turf “far beyond the original wall.” Her theory: “It’s so gross,” she said. “People don’t actually want to touch or get near the gum wall. They’re looking for empty surfaces.” The PDA plans to place more public art in the alleyway and hopes having 20 years of gum removed will keep future visitors more targeted in placing their gum. Meantime, the Market is holding a photo contest on its Facebook page, where people can vote on favorite gum-wall pictures.
Williams was ill before death BY CHRISTIE D’ZURILLA TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
Robin Williams was suffering from Lewy body dementia and was aware of what was happening to him at the time he committed suicide, his wife Susan Williams explained in an emotional interview that aired Tuesday on “Good Morning America.” She also said she forgave him for taking his own life. “Lewy body dementia killed Robin. It’s what took his life,” she said. “And that’s what I’ve spent the last year trying to get to the bottom of: what took my husband’s life.” The Oscar-winning actor committed suicide on Aug. 11, 2014, at age 63, and talk at the time focused on the depression, anxiety and paranoia he was said to have been suffering. But
Susan Williams told “GMA” that in the last week of her husband’s life, doctors were planning to check him into a facility for neuro-cognitive testing. Asked by ABC News’ Amy Robach whether her husband was “losing his mind” and whether he knew that, Susan Williams replied, “He was aware of it. He was keeping it together as best he could, but the last month he could not. It was like the dam broke.” The comedian’s symptoms had been popping up for a while before his death. At one point, she found him at the bathroom sink with blood all over a towel and a cut on his head. He told her he’d “miscalculated,” she said. “In November 2013, he had a little gut pain. Next month it was another symptom. It was like this end-
less parade of symptoms,” Susan Williams said. “And not all of them would raise their head at once. It was like playing whack-a-mole. Which symptom is it this month?, I thought. Is my husband a hypochondriac? We’re chasing it and there’s no answers … We tried everything.” And then he was diagnosed. Lewy body dementia, a form of Parkinson’s, is the same disease that afflicted radio icon Casey Kasem, who died in June 2014 after a drawn-out drama that saw his second wife and his three eldest children fighting over his care. It’s the third-most common form of dementia behind Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia, according to the Alzheimer’s Association. Susan Williams, the comic’s third wife, went public with Robin’s diagnosis sev-
eral days after his death. “Robin’s sobriety was intact and he was brave as he struggled with his own battles of depression, anxiety as well as early stages of Parkinson’s disease, which he was not yet ready to share publicly,” she said in a statement at the time. Robin Williams’ assistant was the one who found her boss’ body; Susan Williams said on “GMA” that she screamed the whole 20-minute drive home after getting the news by phone. She got to see her husband’s body before authorities arrived, she said. “I got to tell him, I forgive you, with all my heart. You’re the greatest man I’ve ever known,” she said. “You know, we were living a nightmare.” “GMA” will have more from the interview on Wednesday’s show.
WA S H I NGT ON — Donald Trump slammed his top rivals for the Republican presidential nomi nation T uesday, saying surging candidate Ben Carson “doesn’t have the temperament” to be president. Trump, speaking on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” said, “I think Ben just doesn’t have the experience,” of the retired neurosurgeon as president.
Trump talks about his negotiating skills. “You’re born with it. It’s not his thing,” Trump said of Carson. “He hasn’t got the temperament for it.” T rump’s comments came as another national poll showed the real estate mogul slipping to second, while Carson was in first. The Oct. 25-29 NBC News/ Wall Street Journal poll found Carson with 29 percent support to Trump’s 23 percent.
South Carolina law enforcement has pictures from murder suspect’s camera COLUMBIA, S.C. — Law enforcement agents have downloaded images and photographs from a digital camera owned by Dylann Storm Roof and that data is now in evidence in the case against Roof. Roof, 21, is facing nine counts of murder in state court in the June killings of nine African-Americans at the historic Mother Emanuel AME Church in downtown Charleston. W hat is called a “return” on a search warrant for Roof’s camera was released Tuesday morning in response to a Freedom of Information request by The State newspaper. It confirms that the South Carolina Law Enforcement
Division agents seized a 14-megapixel Kodak Easyshare camera, Model C1530, that authorities believe belonged to Roof. The camera is a standard point-and-shoot that sells for about $100. The search warrant was issued June 18, one day after the Charleston shootings, by Circuit Judge Robert Hood. He redacted, or censored, most details in the warrant. The warrant said that the camera “is needed to continue the criminal investigation of murder and to compare the property sought to the video images taken from the Mother Emanuel Church and any other pertinent related images.”
Guantanamo parole board clears Yemeni ‘forever prisoner’ MIAMI — The Guantanamo parole board has cleared another “forever prisoner,” a Yemeni who took part in the prison’s so-called “Milk & Honey project” designed to show ambition to settle into a peaceful life after more than a decade of detention. Mansoor Abdul Rahman al Dayfi, in his mid-30s, got to the prison in southeast Cuba on Feb. 9, 2002, when captives were still kept at Camp X-Ray. In September, according to a Pentagon transcript, he told the national security Periodic Review Board that he had become
a fan of American popular culture. A brief statement from the six-member board, dated Oct. 28, said a consensus concluded Dayfi’s “law of war detention … is no longer necessary to protect against a continuing significant threat to the security of the United States.” It recommended he be sent to any other country but his turbulent homeland. Yemen, wracked by civil war, has a potent offshoot of Osama bin Laden’s terror group, al-Qaida of the Arabian Peninsula, or AQAP.

MUMBAI, India — An Uber driver in New Delhi was sentenced Tuesday to life in prison for raping a passenger in the Indian capital last December. Shiv Kumar Yadav was convicted last month of the rape, kidnapping and criminal intimidation of a 25-year-old woman who used the taxi-hailing app to get a ride home from a dinner with friends. Yadav was given the maximum punishment under the law by a special fast-track court established to deal with rape cases, one of the reforms India instituted in recent years in response to a national outcry over a series of high-profile sex-
ual-assault incidents. Yadav had been driving with U ber, the San F rancisco -based taxi service, for about six months when he picked the victim up from a restaurant and drove her to a secluded area near her home after she dozed off in the car, according to accounts in Indian news media. He then sex ua l ly assaulted her and threatened to insert an iron rod into her body if she told police, prosecutors said. The woman took a photo of the car’s license plate with her cellphone and shared it with police, who arrested Yadav two days later.

EDITORIAL Increasing disability awareness on campus
T
he University’s Division of Disability Resources and Educational Services is hosting its fifth annual Disability Awareness Program tonight. The program will consist of a question-and-answer session with a panel that seeks to educate students and community members about disabilities. We strongly recommend that students attend the program to ensure they have a full understanding of the challenges and realities associated with disability in all forms. The University is renowned for the accommodations it provides for students with disability. DRES provided over 1,500 students with support in 2014. Ninety-one percent of DRES students graduate from the University — which is higher than the graduation rates of the University as a whole — and 87 percent of 2010 DRES graduates told the University that all of their disability-related needs were met by the school. As successful as the DRES program has been since it was created to serve veterans in the late 1940s, there is always more that can be done to ensure that there is full integration between students who have disabilities and those who do not. And while the University is mostly doing its part in ensuring that students with disabilities are treated well by the school, other students at the University could still be lagging behind in disability awareness. There frequently still seems to be a rather significant social barrier between students who are non-disabled and students who are disabled on campus. The first step to erasing that obstruction is for students to learn about the intricacies and issues students with disabilities face and how they overcome them. It’s important to learn about the needs and desires of students with disabilities and then respond to them accordingly, especially when it comes to how they want to be treated and approached. For the most part, that merely entails a strong wish to be treated normally. Panel members said that often, people who are non-disabled are nervous to ask potentially invasive questions of students with disabilities, even if those questions could improve the connection between the two groups. The panel will be open and willing to answer those questions in detail, making it even more prudent for students to attend. Students with disabilities make up a significant portion of our student population at this esteemed school. As one campus community, it is important to foster a sense of togetherness amongst all students, and this is more than feasible, desired and within reach. The first step to overcoming any unnecessary barriers between students communities is becoming educated about disabilities, but more than anything, treating students with disabilities as who they are: students and people.
Value in emotional intelligence STEPHANIE YOUSSEF Opinions columnist

et’s ponder on the makings of an intelligent student. Critical thinking and analytical skills come to mind. Quantitative reasoning, logic and maybe even creativity. As students, these are important ideals most of us strive to perfect. However, when analyzing intelligence, some people fail to acknowledge expanded defi nitions like emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence includes self-awareness, empathy, trustworthiness, initiative and teamwork and collaboration skills. In a recent “Last Week Tonight” segment concerning the Canadian election, John Oliver made a comment about emotional intelligence, calling it a “made-up quality” and humorously insinuating that it is unimportant. Though the comment itself was witty and in jest, his unfamiliarity with the defi nition and merits of emotional intelligence reflects a misconception that many people carry. Emotional intelligence, as defi ned by renowned psychologist and Harvard graduate Daniel Goldman, is the ability to recognize one’s own feelings and the feelings of others, for motivating oneself and for managing emotions well in oneself and in one’s relationships. Though traditionally defi ned forms of intelligence are defi nitely necessary for success, they alone are not sufficient. According to Forbes, some of the top ten skills employers most want in 20-something employees have to do with competency in emotional intelligence — the most important skill being the ability to work in a team. In fact, emotional competency has been recognized as a fundamental component of successful

alloween’s over and everyone has retired their costumes, but this past Sunday, terror struck my heart in the form of a tweet. I knew the entertainment industry was sleazy, but I never imagined that they would stoop this low. On Sunday, CBS announced development of a new “Star Trek” series. A real, living, breathing human being legitimately believed that taking the masterpiece that was the “Star Trek” series and stretching it into 2017 would actually be a good idea. It seems as if the human race has learned nothing from the horrible “Star Wars” prequels and how badly those fi lms scarred the overall franchise. As if this weren’t bad enough, I recently found out that Matthew Tolmach, the man responsible for the two recent “Spider Man” rehashes — which existed for copyright’s sake — has announced his role in producing a remake of “Jumanji.” Twenty years after the movie that we all love has settled down into the happy recesses of our minds, there are people who really want to bring that out and mess with it — not cool. If the entertainment industry is trying to make quality material that audiences will love, there’s
education programs. The state of Illinois specifically outlines standards in social and emotional learning abilities that are implemented in teaching plans for every grade from kindergarten through the last year of high school. To gain insight on how emotional intelligence is implemented in programs at the University, I spoke with Amanda Purnell, assistant director of LAS honors. “We focus several weeks of discussion on emotional intelligence in LAS 122 which is our orientation class for incoming LAS James Scholars,” Purnell said. “We discuss how to apply emotional intelligence to leadership and to their life in real ways that are applicable to their strengths and to help them think about why not only biology, chemistry and history are important to them, but why these concepts of emotional intelligence are going to help them get to where they want to be.” College students in
particular are at a critical point in their lives where they are exploring their strengths, weaknesses, interests and their talents. Much like how a student who enjoys and is good at quantitative reasoning would pursue a degree in mathematics, an awareness of one’s strengths in emotional intelligence can help a student fi nd a major or career path that aligns with his or her capabilities. Despite the emphasis put on emotional competence in educational and work settings, recent comments presidential candidate Jeb Bush made belittling psychology and liberal arts further highlight some common misconceptions about emotional intelligence. Though people are well aware of the tangible benefits of engineering and other technical majors, many are still unfamiliar with the benefits of learning and building skills in human behavior. In reality, studying sociology and psychology can

help teach students about the classifications of emotional intelligence, its merits and different research studies that have focused on the role it plays in group settings. Purnell highlighted the importance of educating students about emotional intelligence during our talk. “The more you are exposed to the ideas of emotional intelligence and the more of a chance you have to explore psychology to understand and reflect on different aspects of human behavior, that’s really critical in helping you interact with other people well and be part of an effective team,” Purnell said. Additional resources available to students are provided through the Leadership Center, such as the Emotional Competence Inventory, I-Programs and Leadershape, all of which emphasize helping students build skills in emotional intelligence. The off-the-cuff remarks made by Oliver and Bush reflect false notions many have of what constitutes intelligence. Emotional competency is still valued by employers and educators and should be seen as an asset by students of all majors.

KELSIE TRAVERS THE DAILY ILLINI
no way that making copious amounts of remakes is the way to go; people should love and respect their classics enough to not welcome the new versions with open arms. “Star Trek,” “Jumanji,” the new “Fantastic Four;” it seems like everywhere you look, you’re seeing remakes, rehashes and extensions of old works of art. Everyone I talk to seems to think that this is the cause of the entertainment industry running out of ideas, but the way I see it, our own culture is causing this. Because of how great we view our original forms of entertainment, people feeding us polished new 21st century versions of them will almost never end well. Our culture has adopted an obsession with the past, and the fact that we express this almost religious adoration for classics screams to the Hollywood and the media that we have a desire for past, acclaimed works to be remade and redone — feeding into a lack of originality. Everyone’s probably seen those Facebook posts with a Power Ranger or Johnny Bravo, with the caption, “Only ’90s kids will remember this.” Tumblr and Reddit are loaded with pages dedicated to classics like “Star Wars” and “Star Trek.”
Everybody experiences nostalgia, but with the age of the Internet, those fond memories you have of your childhood classics are thrown into the dirt and beaten down into the ground until you can’t watch an episode of “Ed, Edd ‘n’ Eddy” without cringing at the reflex visions of meme captions. Enough is enough, people — we all get it, Justin Timberlake’s hair looked like ramen — but get over it. All these blogs, subreddits and, dare I say, fanfictions of long-standing, original works considered to be masterpieces have made Hollywood and TV networks look at this constant praise of old works online. They see what looks like a demand for more of these works or reiterations of them. It’s easy money, so they create things like the new “Star Wars” movie and a newly announced remake of “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure,” still starring Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter — are they making a midlife crisis movie? These old memories embody some of the best parts of people’s childhoods, and unless the new versions of these works are overwhelmingly spectacular, people are never going to like them as much as the

originals. The standard they’re being held to is just too great. Just google “Fantastic Four movie review,” and prepare yourself for the onslaught of rants. Some of the rants are valid fi lm criticism, but a lot of what the critics have to say involve petty, minor jabs, because people want to make sure that original works reign supreme and will grab for any justification of that belief. We have to let our fond memories remain memories. Don’t beat these dead horses, respect franchises when they end and ease up on the ’90s kids memes. The entertainment industry only puts out material they believe will be received well — it’s how they make profits. Let your inner creativity shine through your timelines and blogs. Try to wade out of the nostalgia pool and think of cool stuff you want to see in movies. If enough people stop treating the past three decades as a deity, we’ll start to see a return of original works to create new admirations off of. And if you’re a student who plans on making movies as a career, I’m begging you: Be original. I want my TV and movie theaters fi lled with new and exciting work, not more of the Starship Enterprise. These new works could exist; Hollywood hasn’t run out of ideas, but we need to express our desire for them.

Folk and Roots Festival returns to C-U BY CHRISTINA COMO CONTRIBUTING WRITER
The sounds of mandolins, banjos and ukeleles will be in abundance this weekend in Urbana-Champaign. The C-U Folk and Roots Festival runs for its seventh year this weekend. It will be open to the public for five days, commencing with a free show by the Cornstalkers Cajun Band and Cedric Watson and his band on Thursday at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. “We have over 30 workshops, dances and sing-alongs, so that’s kind of my favorite part of the festival,” said Brenda Koenig, festival founder and director of seven years. “Young people are introduced to a whole new instrument. People who are originally involved in folk music coming together, being inspired by new approaches, visiting artists, using the festival as a catalyst for their artistic journey.” Koenig said she created the festival out of her interest to use the arts as a way to form a sense of community. Initially trained as a classical violinist, Koenig said she was inspired by her encounter with folk music at the Old Time Jam from Chicago’s Old School of Music during her time in college in the 1990s. “There was no music, no music stand (at Old Jam). It was all about creating a community and creating a kind of a communal groove,” she said. “Something about that really struck a chord with me. I love the idea that music was an opportunity to come together to strengthen relationships, to come together as a community and make a cool thing happen.” Before Koenig founded Folk and Roots in 2009, she was a board member of the Urbana Country Dances and helped organize events. But she said it was clear to her that she really wanted to run festivals. “There’s not really many opportunities to see this wide of a variety of performers in one place,” Koenig said. Matthew Winters is also on the booking committee for the festival. He said he attended the first two fes-

I actually earned over half of the money I spent on my cars through day trading stocks and doing startups.”

The Pickin’ Illini, a folk string band and Registered Student Organization, will perform at the C-U Folk and Roots Festival on Saturday night. The Festival was founded in 2009. tivals as a spectator and then got involved during its third year. Winters said he has been a fan of all different types of folk music his entire life. “I grew up going to concerts, folk festivals,” he said. “In college, in NYC, I ran a coffee house at Columbia University. I also had a radio show, an old-time string band program.” Winters discussed how the festival provides an opportunity to show off music venues in downtown Urbana. “The fact that we have a festival gives us the opportunity to bring in big outof-town acts,” he said. “But it’s also a great opportunity to put our local talents on display. There’s a whole slew of wonderful talents here in Champaign-Urbana, here in central Illinois ... (It’s) all very community driven; everybody who’s involved with the festival is a volunteer.” Although Winters is excited about all of the performers, he said he is especially looking forward to the performance by John Gorka, a singer and songwriter from Minnesota. “He’s one of the big names in the singer/songwriter world since the early 1990s,” Winters said. “I’m really excited to have the
opportunity to bring him here.” The Pickin’ Illini is a folk string band and Registered Student Organization that will perform at the festival on Saturday night. Tom Allen, a graduate student in LAS, has been president of the Pickin’ Illini for two years. He said he volunteered at the festival last year, and it helps them get the word out about their band. “It’s a really good chance to get off campus and broaden our horizons a little bit,” Allen said. “To get people from different age groups and backgrounds that you might not normally meet around campus. It’s a cool opportunity to get involved with musicians around town. That’s one thing that I really like about it, and I try to get our club to be a part of it for.” Koenig said folk music is for everyone, and with all of the participatory activities like workshops at the festival, students and community members should check it out. “We have everything from early jazz to bluegrass to. It’s the amazing diversity of artists, people from all different walks of life and different kinds of music.”
While it may seem that most of the students who own these luxury cars are international students, not all of them fall under that category. Kim said there is a perpetuated stereotype that all international students are really well off, and this stigma should end. “There are a lot of international kids (who) aren’t allowed to have part time jobs due to their visa status, but I know so many hard working international students that worked very hard to get them where they are today,” she said. “It’s pretty
unfair to generalize over a stereotype.” Being an international student herself, Kim said she could relate to these stereotypes. “International kids have to pay a higher tuition and pay for visas that are really expensive, so not a lot of people can afford all of that,” she said. “However, I know for a fact that there are a huge number of international kids that definitely have a more average financial status — like me.”

SAWBO around the world with the intention of teaching locals about health. The language options for the animations vary because they are done by volunteers. “Our approach is to create the content and make it easily accessible to other groups that just download our materials on their own and use them,” Pittendrigh said. SAWBO’s videos are often based on topics that the creators want to cover. However, Bello-Bravo said they have also been created in reaction to world events. Their second video was about how to treat water for cholera prevention, in response to an earthquake in Haiti. This is because after an earthquake, countries tend to see the largest outbreaks of cholera. Bello-Bravo said SAWBO often
gets video requests as well. Although the organization’s phone app is fairly new, Pittendrigh said SAWBO has already seen some positive responses to their videos in some countries. “There is a television station in Nigeria that now runs our videos between television programs,” Pittendrigh said. Benjamin Blalock, production and IT manager at SAWBO and 2014 University alumnus, found the organization while looking for an animation job, and was impressed by their impact. “At first I didn’t know what SAWBO was at all,” he said. “I started this job just because I was interested in doing animation work, then I realized how important these animations can be for the rest of the world.” Blalock stated that the production of a SAWBO video could take anywhere
from a few weeks to six months. While this may seem like a long time to create a single video, Blalock said the animation team is usually working on multiple videos at once. “We have a team of three to four animators at any given time and they all have their own assignment that they are working on,” he said. Currently, SAWBO is working on an animation about hip dysplasia in children. Blalock said this animation is the result of working with an NGO in Ethiopia who works with children with clubfoot. He explained that hip dysplasia is something easy to diagnose and treat, but people don’t know how to handle the problem. But with SAWBO, Blalock said he hopes that their animations will be able to fix a majority of these cases around the world.

CHASING CAMPUS CARS TYLER COURTNEY THE DAILY ILLINI

University students find haven in luxury car culture BY JANET KIM
W
CONTRIBUTING WRITER
alking through the streets on campus, Erin Kim, sophomore in Engineering and international student from South Korea, finds herself surprised by the number of luxury cars there are in an area mostly inhabited by college students. “At least a couple times a day I see luxury cars like Audis and BMWs, but once in a while I see top-end sports cars like Ferraris and that infamous Galaxy Maserati,” Kim said. Typically, a Maserati can be valued at $100,000 and up, and with a custom paint job the price can raise by $15,000 or more.
Michael Kwan, senior in Engineering, can be seen cruising along the streets on campus in his dark blue Maserati, with a license plate reading, “TWERK.” He said he initially chose to purchase this car simply because it is faster and more convenient than other luxury cars, such as a Ferrari or a Lamborghini, and there are four seats instead of two. Kwan said he enjoys the extra space because he likes to drive his friends around with him. Kwan is not alone in his passion for fast and trendy cars on campus. He said he has a group of 12 friends who all have a love for luxury cars and often go driving together. “We have a group on an app called WeChat,” Kwan said. “Basically we use WeChat to meet up and go around
places and sometimes racing at a range in Savoy.” Kwan said there are not any specifications to join the group, but it mostly consists of close friends and friends of friends who enjoy driving and racing cars. “It’s nice to be a part of it because it gives you people who enjoy the same thing,” he said. “Some students were already driving these kinds of cars before I joined. It keeps on adding on, so even once we graduate there are already new people to continue with what we are leaving behind.” Kwan explained the parents of these students typically give them a budget and from there, it is their decision of what car they purchase. Kwan said he and his friends purchased their cars from bigger cit-
ies, like Chicago and Boston, because they have more options to choose from. Lee said that many of the people who are a part of this group tend to sell their cars after they graduate because many of them travel or go back to their home countries, so they no longer have the need for the car. Johannes Lee, junior in Engineering, is not a part of this group or any like it, but he still has an impressive collection of cars in his arsenal. He currently owns four cars on campus, which include a 2014 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4, a 2015 Range Rover Evoque, a 2014 Porsche 911 Carrera S and a 2014 Aston Martin Vanquish. The combined base price for these cars comes up to $600,000.

Scientific Animations creates tutorial videos BY SHAUN KURIAKOSE CONTRIBUTING WRITER
On Youtube, there are a variety of tutorial videos, ranging from makeup to home improvement. Now, a University-based organization is creating tutorial videos that can be translated into a variety of different languages and accessed around the world, even in developing countries. Founded in 2011, Scientific Animations Without Borders, or SAWBO, creates animated videos meant to educate the world on three different topics: agriculture, health and women’s empowerment. Earlier this year, SAWBO released their mobile application, Deployer, to the Google Play store and Apple’s App store. The app allows people to download SAWBO’s videos directly to their phones. According to Julia Bello-Bravo, co-director of SAWBO, they currently have about 30 videos for agriculture and health, and around 10 videos for women’s empowerment. One example of a video is a tutorial on
how to wash your hands that can be translated into different languages. Barry Pittendrigh, co-founder of SAWBO and professor of entomology at the University, said the main purpose behind the organization is to make educational material for others to use in their programs. “It’s everything from government organizations that use our videos to NGOs (non-governmental organizations),” he said. Pittendrigh said the application was made with ease-of-use in mind. A user can search by topic, language or country. Someone who has the app installed on his or her phone can download any of the videos that SAWBO has released and have it stored for access even without an Internet connection. The videos can also be transferred, along with the app itself, to another phone via Bluetooth. Pittendrigh explained that this is beneficial for NGOs or groups who go to rural areas

The many injuries of the Illinois offense BY MICHAL DWOJAK STAFF WRITER
Illinois football head coach Bill Cubit managed to remain humorous during his weekly press conference Monday after the Illini lost 39-0 to Penn State on Saturday. His offense has been depleted of players for much of the season, and Saturday’s shutout was yet another reminder of the void those injured stars have created. Cubit joked that he might look to the waiver wire to see if he could pick up some players for his roster. After he listed the names of his injured players, he quipped, “Somebody up there doesn’t like me.” Injuries to key offensive players like Mike Dudek, Justin Hardee, Josh Ferguson and Tyler White have diminished what Cubit can do with his offense. Wide receiver Geronimo Allison has been quarterback Wes Lunt’s main target — Allison leads the Big Ten in receptions — but defenses have caught on and limited his impact. The wide receivers who have played haven’t made the impact Cubit wants from the group. The unit has dropped 46 passes according to the head coach, a number that exceeded last season’s total after a few weeks. Cubit has tried to adjust to his young receivers’ abilities, but there is only so much the head coach can do besides using the JUGS machine in practice and limiting the playbook. “We’ve simplifi ed it as much as it can be simplified,” Lunt said. “I think we have to the young guys and receivers can’t rely on G-Mo (Allison) every play, so we just have to get those guys going and keep fighting.” Despite the negatives surrounding the offense, Cubit wants to remain positive and knows he and his coaching staff must do so if they want the players to respond. Players like Dudek and Hardee aren’t coming back this season to save the day, so the head coach knows it’s time for the rest of the players to step up. “We’ll just keep on trying to fi nd ways,” Cubit said. “It’s all you can do. For me to be negative makes no sense at all.”

Illini hoops season coming faster than you think ALEX ROUX Illini hoops columnist
S
tate Farm Center is coming along. One month away from its almost-but-nottotally-finished grand opening for the Big Ten/ACC Challenge between Illinois and Notre Dame, shiny new facades and a retreat of construction equipment has the home of Illini hoops looking like an actual arena again. At least for me, the ongoing renovation has given these last two preseasons a strange feel. I’m used to the Orange and Blue Scrimmage preceding two home exhibition games before we get to the real stuff, but that hasn’t been possible this year and last. Without that excessive amount of preseason hoops, I haven’t been able to completely shift gears into basketball mode. Instead, the last two season schedules have featured a limited-access scrimmage at Ubben Practice Facility, a “secret scrimmage” closed to the public, then one home exhibition game before the season gets underway. These low-stakes affairs have sort of masked the
fact that the Illini have an actual road game against Providence — a pretty good team — in two weeks. Two weeks. And no one has much of an idea what this Illinois team is capable of at this point. The first regular season game is Nov. 13 against North Florida in Springfield, and North Dakota State — who will be no pushover — will visit the state capital two days later. Two tune-ups against real competition is all that’s standing in the way between Illinois and Providence’s Kris Dunn, who is widely regarded as one of the best players in the country. Scrimmages and exhibitions usually aren’t very good indicators of what’s to come, especially for a team battling injuries like Illinois. But there are a couple takeaways from last weekend’s secret scrimmage and things to look for in this Sunday’s lone exhibition game against IllinoisSpringfield that can give us some indicators of how the Illini might fare as a shorthanded squad. Illinois’ second secret scrimmage in as many years was played in Indianapolis this past Sunday, as the Illini took on a Xavier team that made the Sweet
Sixteen last year. Illinois lost by seven to the Musketeers, and the only rational response to that outcome from fans should be a shrug. Coaches treat these scrimmages more like practice, regularly manipulating lineups, scenarios, plays and even the clock in ways we’ll never see during the actual season. It’s more meaningful to look at which players performed. According to multiple reports, Malcolm Hill led the way for Illinois with 20 points. It’s good to see that he can put up a dub against a solid opponent with less scoring help around him, since he’ll have to do that a lot if the Illini want to avoid any early-season embarrassments. Senior transfer Mike Thorne Jr. showed his sturdy performance in the paint at the ILLINI ALLIN scrimmage was no fluke. He reached double digits in points, and junior point guard Jaylon Tate had double-digit assists with 11. All three freshmen in the lineup — Aaron Jordan, D.J. Williams and redshirt Michael Finke — cracked the scoring column as well. Jalen Coleman-Lands, Illinois’ injured and highest-rated freshman, did not play against Xavier as he continues to recover from

Illinois head coach John Groce said last month that Coleman-Lands might not miss any games, but he still hasn’t returned to full participation in practice. I’d be very surprised to see him in Sunday’s exhibition game. With Coleman-Lands, Kendrick Nunn and Leron
Black all sidelined, Finke and the other freshmen will have to help Hill and Thorne fill the scoring column again against IllinoisSpringfield while Groce evaluates who is truly ready to contribute. IllinoisSpringfield is a Division II team, which means Illinois, depleted roster or not,
should crush them. Sunday will be our first real chance to watch the 2015-16 Illini compete, and their last chance to tune up before the games count for real.

Volleyball Winning streak on line in matches with Northwestern BY ELI SCHWADRON STAFF WRITER
Illinois volleyball hasn’t won on the road against Northwestern since 2012. No. 18 Illinois is looking to change that Wednesday night in Evanston. The Illini (15-8) face the Wildcats (13-10) at 7 p.m. on Wednesday. Illinois has won on the road against every other Big Ten school in the past four years, with the exception of Northwestern and Minnesota. Head coach Kevin Hambly is well aware. “For this week I (told the team), ‘Hey look, we haven’t won up there in a long time. And this is why — because we haven’t been emotionally invested,” he said. “We’ve gone up there, won a couple
sets and then relaxed … We can yell at you or give you some kind of speech and we can give you quotes — we can do all kinds of things — but really it comes down to if you guys want to be in this.” A lot will depend on the team’s energy and attitude levels. Hambly said senior leader Jocelynn Birks will have to take charge and get her team invested emotionally. “Jocelynn is a person we look to. She’s starting to understand how to influence others and push others to have that investment, which is exciting,” Hambly said. “This will be a good test to see if she actually has it, because it’s a lot easier at home than it is on the road.” Northwestern is not one of the eight nationally ranked
Big Ten teams, but the Wildcats should not and will not be taken lightly. Led by setter Taylor Tashima and outside hitter Symone Abbott, Northwestern took down No. 3 Penn State on Oct. 10 in a five-set, grind-it-out win. Most recently, the ‘Cats beat Michigan State 3-1 on Halloween. Hambly pinpointed Northwestern’s abilities to defend, prolong rallies and use the middle effectively. He said Abbott will be the decisive factor in Wednesday’s match. “That was the difference in the (previous) matches at their place,” Hambly said. “We didn’t handle Abbott. If we can handle her, we’ll be okay. But if we can’t we’re in for a long night.” Illinois has the weapons to potentially counteract
Abbott’s fierce attack. Junior Naya Crittenden and freshman Ali Bastianelli have formed a solid connection as of late, and they’ll look to block Northwestern at every opportunity. Offensively, the Illini have been using their middle blockers more and more. According to Hambly, setter Alexis Viliunas is still adjusting to a new style of play in which points come from the middle of the floor. “It has not been Lex’s comfort level, and she has not been used to having middles who can score like this,” Hambly said. “She’s gotta get out of her old habits and start to figure this out a little more.” Following Wednesday’s match, Illinois is set to return to Champaign and
face Northwestern again Saturday — this time at Huff Hall. After a bit of a mid-season slump, the Illini have won three of their past four matches. Illinois beat Michigan State and Michigan back-toback over the weekend. Hambly said the team doesn’t get too low during the lows or too high during the highs over the course of a season. “They have perspective. They’re not making any of it bigger than it was than when we lost. This is what it is,” Hambly said. “We understand what’s ahead of us. And it doesn’t mean that much, unless we keep winning.

Don’t sleep on under-the-radar Iowa DAN ESCALONA College football columnist
I
t’s sometimes easy to forget that there is an entire dimension of Big Ten football outside the states of Ohio and Michigan. But now, arriving as a reprieve of sorts to the same old-same old Big Ten contenders are the Iowa Hawkeyes. Undefeated and on the verge of running away with the Big Ten West, Iowa is in the midst of its best campaign since 2009. Though the Hawkeyes are still on the outside looking in the College Football Playoff race — sitting at No.10 — it is time to consider them a viable CFP contender. Iowa, provided it emerges victorious in its remaining four games, will enter the Big Ten championship game against presumably either Michigan State or Ohio State with a legitimate chance to shock the conference — and force the selection committee to consider its case. In making use of the classic Big Ten combination of a stingy defense and productive ground attack, the Hawkeyes’ surprising run to the playoff has become a distinct possibility. They may not have the star power, the fl ashy offensive stats or the spread formations of other playoff contenders, but they do have a defense capable of potentially upsetting the more talented Spartan and Buckeye squads down the line. Iowa’s return to Big Ten relevance has been cemented by the play of stifl ing defense that has allowed an average of 15.3 points per game — good for sixth in the country. The solid performance thus far by the defensive unit has been highlighted by the contributions of cornerback Desmond King, who leads the nation with seven interceptions. King has announced himself as one of the conference’s elite defensive standouts, as evidenced by a two-interception performance against Wisconsin and an 88-yard interception return last week against Maryland. The running game, Iowa’s other crucial key to success, has

THE DAILY ILLINI | WWW.DAILYILLINI.COM
Illini winger is an assist machine BY COLE HENKE STAFF WRITER
A wingman at a bar always looks to set up his friends. James McGing, one of Illinois hockey’s wingers, always looks to set up his teammates. McGing leads the Illini with 16 points this season, 14 of which are assists. He and Eric Cruickshank (13 points) are the only two players on the Illini with 10 or more points. His 14 assists are good for second in the CSCHL. He trails only Aaron Azevedo from Iowa State, who has 16. Last season, as a freshman, McGing led the team with 21 assists, and finished third on the team in points with 30. Forwards John Olen (34) and Cruickshank (32) were the only two players ahead of him, points-wise. If the left wing plays in 37 games like he did last year, then he is on pace to finish this season with 47 assists. McGing is a pass-first player, and he always has been. “It’s almost a problem in some ways,” McGing said. “I just always choose to pass, even if it is the wrong play. If I have the shot, I will always pass. But it’s easy when I play with a guy like Cruickshank. I’d rather have him shoot every time because he is just better at it.” McGing doesn’t know exactly why he always decides to pass first, but he thinks it may have to do with a position change back
in his youth hockey days. He did not start playing forward until he was 15. Before then, he played as a defender. He thinks the reason he doesn’t focus on scoring goals is because he never had to during his developmental years. Head coach Nick Fabbrini is more than pleased with how McGing has been playing, but due to recent injuries, he is expecting more production from his left wing. “He is a great passer and playmaker,” Fabbrini said. “But he can also score goals. He has a great shot. We as a coaching staff are always on him about taking opportunities to shoot the puck when he gets them. Especially with (John Olen) out, we need him to score goals for us, too.” McGing likes to slow the game down. If he is ahead of his teammates, instead of pressing the issue and taking a shot, he will slam on the brakes and wait for his teammates to catch up. Then he will make his move. Fabbrini said that a lot of McGing’s success is a product of strong powerplay offense. “He is in a good spot on our power play where he is handling the puck a lot,” Fabbrini said. “It also comes from the guys he is playing with. You need somebody on the other end scoring the goal in order to get an assist.” McGing has recorded eight of his 14 assists during Illini power plays. Nobody else has more
TYLER COURTNEY THE DAILY ILLINI
James McGing takes a shot during the game against Ohio University at the Ice Arena on Saturday, Oct. 24. Illinois lost 3-2 in a shootout. than two. His spot on the power play has definitely helped his numbers, according to McGing, but he feels more comfortable in all offensive aspects this season. It did not take him long to adjust to playing at
Illinois last year, and he credits Olen and Cruickshank for that. “Cruickshank and Olen made it so easy,” McGing said. “I played pretty high-level junior hockey, and I still have never played with guys that are able to get a shot off
like they can. No matter what position they are in, or where their feet are at, they will get that shot off. 75004 It makes my job so much easier.”
