University of Illinois Police Captain Roy Acree said calls regarding suicide on cam- pus seem to go in spurts, as police might not get a call for six months, and then there are three or four calls around the same time. He said the depart- ment picks up calls from people who are threatening suicide to any degree. The department consists of a set of Crisis Intervention Train- ing, or CIT officers, that inter- vene in situations involving the risk of death or danger to a per- son. Officers respond and deter- mine whether a person is in dan- ger of hurting him or herself or threatening to hurt others. Officer Brian Tison, coordi- nator of the CIT program, said that after examination, the CIT team can make the decision to submit an involuntary petition that requires the person to go to the hospital for evaluation. “People have this thought that if they call the police, some- thing bad’s going to happen — somebody is going to go to jail, somebody is going to get in trou- ble,” he said. “And that’s just not the case. Of all the CIT calls that we have, we’ve never taken anyone to jail. We get them the help that they need.” Acree said the CIT officers, in a sense, serve as the first response to the situation. A report is later sent to the Coun- seling Center. “The reason we do that is so that we’re not sitting on an island,” said University Police Sgt. Joan Fiesta. “Let’s say we deal with someone two or three times, we’re not going to sit on an island and hold our respon- sibility to this person who need- ed help.” According to the Suicide Pre- vention Resource Center, homi- cide and suicide are the second and third leading causes of death, respectively, for young adults ages 18 to 24. R.J. McNicholl, co-chair of the Suicide Prevention Team at the University, said late adolescence and early adult- hood can be a time when cer- tain psychiatric disorders first emerge. Some of the disorders are depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. However, he mentioned that the increase in calls to the Counseling Center is not directly correlated with suicide attempt calls. “If we look at the big pic- ture and see that there is an increased need for services, an increased request for coun- seling (and) crisis stabiliza- tion, some of those may include thoughts of suicide or suicide behavior, but that’s not a direct correlation,” said McNicholl, who also serves as a clinical counselor. According to the Counseling Center’s website, statements describing feelings of depres- sion, helplessness, extreme loneliness and hopelessness may suggest suicidal thoughts. Deputy Chief Skip Frost said that there are varying degrees of attempts of suicide. “We get a call from resident advisors, parents or friends of someone. We get there, we find them in psychological distress,” he said. “There are just a myri- ad of ways we come across peo- ple. Sometimes its people call- ing us directly and letting us know.” Fiesta added that the first thing officers do when respond- ing to distressed students is give them medical attention. If the student is threatening to commit suicide or has thoughts, they will be taken to the hospi- tal to get evaluated. “We’ll try to get them to vol- untarily go to the hospital and to seek medical attention on their own,” Fiesta said.

Six for-pro!t institutions being investigated

At end of semester, UI Police sees increase of distress calls

Study shows college graduates overestimate skill-masteryBY STEFFIE DRUCKERWEB EDITOR

The worry that consumes most students’ lives during their senior year is whether they are going to get a job.

Once the job has been locked down and students have a diploma in hand, they must shift their focus to mak-ing the transition between the school world and work world.

A new study released by Chegg, a company which offers academic services, found that students overes-timate their proficiency in regards to basic profession-al skills such as prioritizing work, managing a meeting and communicating with an authority figure.

The University of Illinois Police Department sees an increase in calls from students dealing with mental distress, including suicidal thoughts and attempts, at the end of the semester.

Click It or Ticket campaign beginsDAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT

Starting May 9, the Champaign Police Department will be par-ticipating in a Click It or Ticket campaign.

The department will be work-ing alongside the Illinois State Police, the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) and hun-dreds of other law enforcement agencies across Illinois.

“It’s a campaign where offi -cers are put out on patrol areas to make sure that people are wear-ing their seat belts and to make sure everyone is driving sober as

well,” Champaign Police Sgt. Joe Ketchem.

The Champaign Police Depart-ment will be patrolling the city streets to enforce seat belt laws. If the driver or passenger is not complying, the offender is subject to a ticket with a fi ne.

This campaign comes after the department received a high-way grant to run the program to May 26.

Offi cers will be looking for seat belt violations along with keeping an eye out for intoxicated drivers and children who are improperly

restrained.While offi cers are always look-

ing out for these things, they can not always make stops for seat belt violations because of their work-load, Ketchem said.

“With this grant money [it] allows offi cers to be specifi cally looking for seat belts and DUI and things like that,” Ketchem said.

The time period set in the grant covers Memorial Day weekend, a time of heavy traffi c and more intoxicated drivers.

“Memorial Day is a warm holi-

day in the summer and we tend to have more accidents than the regular weekends and we tend to have a lot more intoxication prob-lems,” Ketchem said.

Provisional numbers show that during Memorial Day weekend in 2013 there were three deaths and almost 600 injuries on Illinois Roadways. Two of those deaths were alcohol-related.

“People need to realize that wearing your seat belt and not driving intoxicated is the best thing to do,” Ketchem said.

published research about diplo-ma mills and for-profi t colleg-es. He became interested in the subject when the University was spammed in 2002 by an unaccred-ited organization, called the Uni-versity Degree Program, with calls about how to earn a cheap medical degree.

Gollin discovered that the company was essentially selling fake medical degrees. Outraged, he began to publish research against diploma mills and for-prof-it universities.

He commented on why so many students are attracted to for-profi t colleges above a community col-lege or another for-profi t higher education option.

“Sometimes it’s because the students have not done enough research and have not found pro-grams at community colleges that will offer, for less money, what the for-profi t schools are offering,” Gollin said.

But he also stated that some-times there are specifi c programs that can be found at for-profi t col-leges that are often diffi cult to fi nd at community colleges. Gollin clarifi ed that this is not an issue with all for-profi t colleges, or even most of them, but there are enough that are being criticized for mis-representing their success that this must be examined.

Many students that come out of for-profi t colleges have much more

debt on average than students that graduate from a traditional college or university.

“For-profi ts are often quite expensive compared to taking sim-ilar courses at a public university,” Gollin said.

In response to inquiries about Durbin’s letter to Illinois prin-cipals, DeVry University, one of the six for-profi t companies under investigation, issued the following in a statement:

“The facts, and our history, dem-onstrate our commitment to Illi-nois students and their success in higher education. We encourage the senator to visit our Chicago campus, and our Advantage Acad-emy, so that he can learn fi rsthand how we serve our students.”

Gollin supports Durbin’s stance against for-profi t colleges.

“This is one of the most impor-tant initiatives Senator Durbin has taken on,” Gollin said. “I’m really glad he is doing this.”

Frost said students that con-template suicide during this time should seek help.

“People think that because you seek help that it’s a sign of weakness,” he said. “Seek out help, there are resources that are available to you.”

McNicholl said that when a student seeks help, the goal is to provide them with the oppor-tunity to understand their feel-

ings and teach them coping skills while also helping them understand the impact of their behavior on the overall campus community.

“Addressing mental health concerns is not just the respon-sibility of the counseling center or the psychiatrists at McKinley Health Center,” McNicoll said. “But indeed, its a campus-wide concern and a campus-wide responsibility.”

student really well; however, most students have not had a full-time, permanent position.”

Because most students do not have actual work experience, it takes them some time to fi gure out how to be an effective profes-sional, Neef said.

Just as each school has its own culture, companies have their own environments and ways of doing things.

“I think the interview is ... a crit-ical time to ask questions about company culture, to observe com-pany culture ... and really think about ‘do I see myself working in this space within this organiza-tion?’” Neef said.

She suggested job applicants ask what the interviewer likes about their job and working for that particular company.

In addition to getting informa-tion from an interview, job appli-cants can use LinkedIn to reach out to other employees from the company or University alumni to fi nd out more about what the job is really like.

Brian Mortell, a 2013 Univer-sity graduate who now works in marketing, agreed that one of his main concerns about starting his fi rst job after graduation was whether he was going to like what he did and whether the job would match his expectations.

“You can only really gain so much from interviewing or doing research or even talking to people that work there,” he said. “People are going to upsell things when you’re interviewing because not only are they interviewing you, but you’re kind of interviewing them.”

Still, he said, it’s important to go into the job with an open mind and fl exible attitude.

Mortell also said the transi-tion from the school world to the work world highlights differences between the life and schedule of a student and of an employee. In the work world, employees are not given a syllabus and the expecta-

tions for assignments can be more nebulous.

“The world of work is not school, and school is not the world of work,” Neef said. “You pretty much know what it’s going to take to get an A in a class. Sometimes (in the world of work) it’s less transparent what it takes to be successful or what exactly you’re being measured against.”

Neef said it’s critical for new hires to establish open and trans-parent communication with their supervisor. Together, they can sort through exactly what is expected of the new employee and how they will be evaluated.

As he wraps up almost a year of being in the workforce, Mortell said he has learned how school-work differs from actual work in terms of impact.

“At work, you are accountable for your work, but that contrib-utes to a much bigger picture,” he said in an email. “The work you do in school impacts your grade. The work you do at your job can impact your reputation and the company.”

Melanie Cohen, a senior in Business, said making a good impression is one of her prima-ry concerns about entering the workforce.

“I know that I’m prepared to do what I need to do,” she said. “Forming (those) fi rst relation-ships ... and establishing myself as a professional is the next step.”

One important relationship Neef and Mortell both suggest establishing is to fi nd a more senior employee who can act as a mentor.

Neef recommends that new

hires fi nd someone who has been in the organization for two or three years who is not their direct supervisor. New employees can then ask their mentor any ques-tions that they feel too awkward or uncomfortable asking the boss.

Cohen said she’s learned a lot through talking to peers who have recently graduated. She also attended a program through the College of Business that allowed her to ask alumni anything about how to navigate her fi rst job.

“That was nice because it was

a more casual setting and I could get real answers,” she said.

Ultimately, though, Cohen feels that learning how to navigate and adjust is something that must be learned on the job.

“As much as I can be prepared — or just try to be prepared — by school and by talking to other people, I know it’s something I’ll just have to fi gure out on my own,” Cohen said.

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

W ith the end of the semester comes the impending doom of

something every student shud-ders at: fi nals.

Yes, it is now the semi-magical time of the year when library attendance hits at an all-time high, coffee sales spike sharply and stu-dents’ lives reach a whole new level of miserable — really miserable.

As I approach the end of my sophomore year, I, too, am experiencing the debili-tating effects of these horri-ble exams. During previous semesters, they have caused me to leave my room a dishev-eled mess because I put off laundry, cleaning and mak-ing my bed for fear of wast-ing potential study time. Heck, even my physical being was a disheveled mess, as I threw on random T-shirts, completely ditched my usual workout rou-tine, ate whatever junk food I had and postponed showers for longer than I should have — all in the name of studying for fi nals. And many people I know have done the same.

However, this semester will be different for me. Despite the fact that fi nals are here, I will make sure to keep up with my daily routines, and others should do the same. Allotting time to maintain a healthy life while still prioritizing fi nals is a more effective way to take on the end of the semester. It will leave us less miserable, too.

Now, don’t take this the wrong way. We should still study and take fi nals seriously, as they are a big factor in our academic success. But what

I am proposing is that fi nals should not completely eat up our time. There are merits in balancing our personal and academic lives well — like keeping our sanity intact, for one.

For example, usually at the end of the semester, I would uphold my semi-annual tra-dition of completely shutting down my social life. Gener-ally, this routine involved me deactivating my social media profi les for two weeks to pre-vent me from being distracted while studying — something that many students do to rid themselves of addictive social media sites . Looking at this method critically, though, I can’t help but feel it is rather silly.

My social media profi les should be able to remain active without affecting how I study for fi nals. I shouldn’t have to cut myself off from the rest of civilization.

As independent college stu-dents, we are solely respon-sible for the things that are required of us in daily life. The key to success during fi nals is not shutting down our lives, but rather prioritiz-ing them. We should recognize that social networking isn’t the fi rst thing we should be doing and make sure it comes after studying. We should exercise our self-control — we are grown ups, we can do it. I mean, if the four-year-old preschoolers I know can sit still in rooms full of Legos and Play-Doh, what is to say that we can’t review our chemistry lectures online without open-ing new tabs?

Additionally, a ten minute shower is not going to single-handedly cause us to fail any one of our fi nals. I think that taking extra minutes to wash my face, make my bed and load the washing machine are

all still worthy uses of my time. Part of the reason why classes stop during fi nals and why we have reading day is so we have that time to study for fi nals. Because of this, we should have time to at least remain hygienic.

I was previously under the impression that sacrifi c-ing all of my routines was in the name of studying, and that a short lapse in person-al hygiene was just part of being studious. But is spend-ing every moment at Grainger poring over notes the end-all-be-all of good students? Prob-ably not. Sitting there study-ing non-stop all day isn’t as effective as studying when our minds and bodies are function-ing at their best. Making sure we sleep well, take breaks to shower, dress nicely and keep our living areas clean are all things we can do to make sure our minds are clear enough to make our studying effective. It is crucial for health, personal hygiene and the happiness of all those who have to stand our stench that we still take care of ourselves while still taking care of our grades.

So this semester, my life will go on during fi nals, as all stu-dents’ lives should. No more eating excessive amounts of junk food, skipping show-ers or hearing comments like “Oh, Stephanie you look tired,” “What happened to the fl oor in your room?” or “God, what’s that smell?” I will make an effort to fi t fi nals into my rou-tine instead of erasing my rou-tines completely. Maybe then I will successfully take control of fi nals instead of the other way around.

A lthough summer vaca-tion is near, getting excited about it dur-

ing this time of year is easier said than done with the loom-ing doom of finals upon us.

During my past three years here at the University, I have experienced my share of demanding finals weeks, characterized by sleepless nights, coffee guzzling and, worst of all, feelings of anx-iety that have sometimes made me question my own sanity.

Sounds like a nightmare, doesn’t it? I’m sure all stu-dents have been there, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be that way.

After receiving some sage advice from an unlikely source, I now realize that I don’t have to be consumed by the finals hysteria like I have been in the past.

And neither does the rest of the student body.

Ironically, the guidance I received came from someone who never attended college. In fact, this person hasn’t taken a final exam since she graduated from high school in 1980, but please don’t let this disqualify her immense wisdom. This insight came from the same individual who has been there to astute-ly counsel me so many times before — my mom.

“Honey, make sure not to kill yourself over finals. I don’t care how much they are worth, at the end of the day, it’s just another test,” my mother told me this past weekend.

This advice, while sim-

ple on the surface, has com-pletely redefined how I look at final examinations all together.

Instead of viewing finals as the mother lode of all exams, which demands sacri-ficing our mental health over, we should approach them the same way we would any other test.

Think about it, besides their increased weight on your final grades, what makes them so different from taking any other test?

The answer is simple: abso-lutely nothing.

Similar to lesser weight-ed exams that we frequently take during the course of a semester, many instructors often tell us what content will be on our finals, the date that we have to take the exam and how much time we will have to complete the test.

Therefore, we should for-get the fact that these exams could potentially be worth up to 40 percent of our grades and remember that a final exam is really just another test.

For those of you skep-tics out there who claim it is impossible to treat a test that is worth nearly half of your grade the same way as you would a quiz that is only worth five percent, for exam-ple, take a moment and think about how athletes approach the biggest games of their careers.

In sports, it is common for athletes confronted with career-defining contests to approach these match-ups with the mind-set that they are just playing another game, like they have count-less times before. Whether this means preparing for a preseason exhibition game or a championship game, many competitors make it a prior-

ity to maintain the perspec-tive that no matter how big of a stage they are performing on, the game is sill the same.

By upholding this mind-set, athletes are able to main-tain their sanity by retain-ing their normal preparation routines, which has proven to be an effective means for achieving success when con-fronted with what seem like astronomical challenges.

Take, for example, three-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady. While discuss-ing how he was handling his preparation for the 2012 Super Bowl at a press confer-ence, he was adamant that while the game was the Super Bowl to everyone else, to him and his teammates, it was just another football game.

For me, personally, I have a hard time picturing Brady pulling all-nighters at the Patriots’ facilities or exces-sively indulging in poor “study habits” to prepare for the Super Bowl. Instead, it is much more feasible to imag-ine that Brady made it a top priority not to get caught up in the chaos of such a hyped event and, instead, stuck to his normal preparation routine.

Brady’s composed attitude when facing such a daunting challenge such as the Super Bowl can teach students a thing or two about how to prepare for finals.

So, this finals season, heed the warning of my mother’s advice and remember that ultimately, finals are just like any other exam. Don’t kill yourself in preparation for these tests but, instead, pre-pare for them as you would any other.

Maintain regular routines, practices while preparing for ! nal exams week

Final exams hype unwarranted, shouldn’t be perceived di" erently from other tests

Say ‘no’ to the stress: You’ve conquered worse than ! nals week before

If y ou’re reading this, you’re most likely doing so in between nervous breakdowns and study sessions. Yes, unfortunately fi nals season is upon us, and with it comes copious amounts of stress.

We’ve all felt it — the psychological torment and seemingly physical pain associated with studying for tests worth 50 percent of our grades or taking multiple exams during a 48-hour time span.

To put it gently, fi nals can be overwhelming. They can make you feel like you’re drowning in stress, tears and energy drinks. They can trick you into thinking scores will single-handedly determine your entire future. They can shake your self-confi dence and inspire self-doubt.

But fear not, our fellow students! We believe in you, and we know you can do it.

You’ve conquered much worse than these few measly little tests.

Remember middle school? You survived those hellish years, and you’ve got the brace-faced pictures to prove it. Bouts of acne, baby fat that stayed with you 13 years too long and an overall ambiance of awkwardness were much worse than this.

What about the SATs and ACTs? You took those during a time of your life fi lled with tremendous teen angst and did well enough on them to get to a university of this caliber — not an easy feat.

And don’t forget that family reunion you attended last summer where your parents made you spend time with your weird cousin who doesn’t shower — that one who clearly disregards the fact that you two are related and probably asked you to prom at some point. You endured it like a champ.

Compared to these atrocities, fi nal exams are child’s play. Additionally, you’re not alone in your suffering. Everyone

else on campus is right there with you, just as stressed and sleep deprived as you are. And let’s face it, there are plenty of students who probably have it worse than you do. Take comfort in this.

In fact, take a trip to one of the campus libraries and make a wholehearted effort to search for the student who is in a deeper state of fi nals week misery than you — the one who has clearly been sitting at her desk for 15-plus hours in a zombifi ed state, surrounded by seven empty Espresso Royale cups. This is sure to make you feel better.

But the main reason we know you can persevere through your fi nals is because you’ve done it before, be it during one previous semester or seven.

In the end, everything will probably be okay, regardless of how well you do on your fi nals. The week will pass, and we’ll again know happiness and relaxation. Keep this in mind as you cram and remember that we believe in you.

Take care of them BEFORE you leave campus!

10 tips to quickly de-stress1. Take time to stop, breathe and reflect on what’s important.

2. Exercise time management skills by considering your priorities (be sure to include time for yourself) and delegate or discard unnecessary tasks.

3. Break up your studying into blocks that are spread out through several days leading up to the exam.

4. Don’t try to do it alone. Turn to roommates, classmates and friends for support.

5. Keep your study space clean and uncluttered.

6. Slowing down to pay attention to just one task at hand is an excellent method of stress relief.

7. Try a massage, a hot bath, mini-relaxations or a mindful walk. Practically any exercise — a brisk walk, a quick run, a sprint up and down the stairs — will help, too.

8. Remind yourself of the value of staying positive and taking one step at a time.

9. Get enough sleep every night.

10. Focus on self-nurturing. Care for your body by eating good, healthy food.

on a test if I don’t sleep enough the night before.”

Study groups with friendsStudying alone can seem bor-

ing, lonely or just plain inef-fective to some students. This is where, many believe, study groups come in handy. Unfor-tunately, while studying with friends may seem like an effec-tive way to study, that may not actually be the case. Study groups can turn into talking marathons and waste the time each student devoted to study-ing if the group is not organized well. For groups to be effec-tive, try to study with people who will commit themselves to studying and in places with few distractions.

Stressed peopleThere is a common saying that

goes, “You become who you sur-round yourself with.” In the case of stressed people, this could not be more than true. According to a recent study by the Max Planck Institute for Cognitive and Brain Sciences and the Technische Universitat Dresden, stress can be very contagious and just being around stressed peo-ple can cause a student stress. Even if one can’t go a day with-out running into stressed stu-dents, try to limit time around finals-stressed friends to keep stress levels down.

How to relieve stress and study effectively:

Create a plan of attackHaving a game plan set up

ahead of time can help lessen the stress of studying by eliminat-ing surprises and cram sessions. Before studying, set up a sched-ule with times devoted to study-ing and what should be accom-plished that day. Setting small goals every day can be beneficial by allowing a student to achieve some accomplishment every day. This can lessen stress, knowing

that with each day, a student is getting more accomplished. Students can also try separat-ing work into chunks, so that the pressure of learning a whole chapter in a single night is elimi-nated. Additionally, try to priori-tize what needs to be done first, and avoid wasting time studying something of little importance.

“We recommend that you use the coping mechanism you’ve learned when you perceive an event to be stressful,” Carey said. “It can stop you from wor-rying, procrastinating and that snowball effect from building up.”

Keep distractions awayOne of the most crucial aspects

to studying is the time actually spent studying. Becoming too wrapped up in a texting conver-sation on the phone can cause a student to miss out on valuable time dedicated to studying. This lost time can lead to even more stress. In order to utilize study time, keep distractions away by clearing schedules and giving full concentration to studying with-out having to stress about fulfill-ing other obligations or feeling guilty about what’s not getting done. Also, turn off the phone and study alone. It is important to find an environment that will mini-mize distractions. Fortunately, there are several places to study on campus that can do just that.

Eat well, sleep well and work out regularly

As obvious as it may sound, good health can both help min-imize stress and encourage healthy study habits. Because stress is a physical reaction, learn to relieve it better by build-ing up health. This can be done by eating regularly, sticking to nutritious and wholesome foods and cutting out junk food. Try exercising regularly and sleep-ing the required amount for stu-dents (anywhere between eight to nine hours) every night to keep energy levels up and to relieve exam-related stress.

STUDY TIPSFROM 6A

BY CHRISTINE OLIVOSTAFF WRITER

Finding the perfect study spot can make all the differ-ence while preparing for finals. Fortunately for University stu-dents, there are many places to camp out for the last week of the semester.

With final exams set to begin Friday and end on May 16, stu-dents are starting to get on their study grind. But before reviewing class materials, stu-dents must find a proper study-ing place on campus to focus.

Lisa Romero, communica-tions librarian, said the Com-munications Library located on the first floor of Gregory Hall is the best place for students majoring in media and commu-nications to study on campus.

“We are one of the smaller libraries on campus, but we are housed within the build-ing where the faculty and stu-dents interested in media are,” Romero said. “This is an advan-tage because we are close to all the people that use this library more often.”

Romero also said the Com-munications Library is a conve-nient and comfortable place for students to prepare for finals.

“We are conveniently located on the Quad, near the bus stops and inside a building where there is a lot of traffic, making it a safe environment,” Rome-ro said. “We also have a really cozy, comfortable space accord-ing to our users. We don’t shush anyone, but we let people mon-itor themselves. This way, the library doesn’t get too crazy, and people are really respectful of the other students studying.”

The Communications Library offers a variety of seating options such as comfortable chairs, couches, big tables and small tables for students to work at. The library also con-tains nine computer terminals, and multiple outlets for laptops

and TVs for students to use.“The Communications

Library is unlike any other library on campus because we provide access to international news from nine different areas worldwide via eight flat-screen TVs,” Romero said. “We also have a lot of non-media majors use this library during finals to watch the international news, as well.”

Although the Communica-tions Library is open to anyone, Romero said the staff is trained to be experts in the communi-cations and media fields.

“We hire a lot of people from the media college,” Rome-ro said. “We want them to be available to talk about projects and answer questions these stu-dents may have.”

The Communications Library has begun hosting extended hours for finals, lasting until May 16. This library will be open from 8 a.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Fridays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and 1 p.m. to midnight Sunday.

Although students may study in the many libraries on campus for finals, Arthur Ding, soph-omore in Engineering, enjoys studying elsewhere.

“My favorite place to study is the Aerospace Computer Lab on the third floor of Talbot Lab,” Ding said. “It’s our department computer lab, and it’s just filled with other aero majors working on the same assignments. So if I get stuck on something, it’s easy to find someone who can help me.”

Ding also said he does not like to study in crowded, noisy or dim places, which makes the Aerospace Computer Lab the perfect studying spot for him.

“I like studying in bright places, because I’d fall asleep too easily otherwise,” Ding said. “Usually, an average com-puter lab environment is great

for me. The lab is also really convenient because it’s so close to food places around the Green Street area. I can run out to grab something to eat and be back at work in no time.”

In the past, Ding studied in Grainger Engineering Library, but made the switch to the com-puter lab for a better studying environment.

“I switched because the Aer-olab provides a much more pri-vate, quiet environment where my department peers also study,” Ding said. “The good thing about the Aerospace Lab is that only Aerospace majors can get in. There aren’t too many of us, so the environ-ment stays relatively quiet and focused even during times of heightened activity.”

Cater Minnis, sophomore in Engineering, said his favor-ite place to study on campus is his own dorm room at Illinois Street Residence Halls.

“I study in my room because it’s the place most familiar to me,” Minnis said. “That helps me relax and focus on my studies.”

Minnis said that he works best at his desk while listen-ing to music when studying for finals.

“The background noise helps me to remember things in exams,” Minnis said. “If I for-get what I need to know, I can remember what I was listening to and that usually helps.”

Although Minnis said he believes studying at the library can also be helpful while study-ing with small groups, he has always preferred his own room.

“Studying in your room is nice because everything you need is right there next to you,” Minnis said. “You don’t have to pack up and move out, you can just get to work right away.”

Students wake up to a slight, cool breeze rolling through the dorm room win-dow, and a bright ray of sun-light peaks through the cur-tains. They groggily roll out of bed, (after snoozing the alarm three times) and look at their phones to check the time, only to discover that the day is Reading Day. This means two things: Classes are over and final exam sea-son is just a day away.

If one spends reading day studying like intended, then the extra reviewing should allow for an edge when final exams come around. But for students who use Read-ing Day as a head start to day drink or an excuse to lay out at the ARC’s outside pool all day, studying for a final may seem like a distant concern. But the reality may hit hard the next day when time starts running out.

Mandi Carey, a stress management peer in McKin-ley Health Center’s health education department and senior in LAS, recommend-ed learning healthy coping mechanisms to use during high-stress periods such as finals week. She said McKin-ley’s website provides free downloads of relaxation exercises — including deep breathing, muscle relaxation and music — students can use to de-stress.

Learn how to avoid stress-ful situations when studying and study more effectively by following this advice:

What to avoid:

All-nightersMost college students are

no strangers to all-nighters. With schedules jam-packed with class, work, homework and exams, sacrificing a night of sleep to devote more time to studying may seem worth the next-day exhaus-tion. But research suggests otherwise. According to a study by St. Lawrence Uni-versity, students who reg-ularly pulled all-nighters averaged a 2.9 GPA, while those who did not had a high-er average GPA of 3.1. While studying for a long period of time may feel productive, the effects of sleep deprivation can actually cause grades to plummet.

“I pull all-nighters too often, and it usually affects me the rest of the day,” said Pharaoh Watson, freshman in LAS. “I never do as well

As No. 12 seed Illinois nears the long-awaited start to the NCAA tournament, they’ll be look-ing to make a deeper run than last year.

The Illini bowed out early from the 2013 tournament, easily beaten by Vanderbilt in the round of 32.

This year, the Illini will be in an entirely dif-ferent situation to begin the tournament and will look to use that to their advantage.

The first thing working in the Illini’s favor this year is the fact that they are hosting their regional. Last year’s tournament put Illinois on the road to start, with Vanderbilt being the regional host.

Playing at home is always a nice advantage, but it should mean more to Illinois than most teams. The Illini ran the table at home this sea-son, finishing with a perfect 11-0 record and were never short on fan support.

“The whole team is really excited for hav-ing these upcoming matches this weekend. We’re looking to get a big crowd out with lots of great support behind us and hopefully that’ll be enough to get us through these first two rounds and into Georgia,” Farris Gosea said.

Not only should playing the first two rounds

at home give Illinois an advantage, but the Illi-ni lineup has gotten more national recognition than it has in years. Juniors Ross Guignon and Tim Kopinski were selected as an All-American doubles pairing, and sophomore Jared Hiltzik was named All-American as a singles play-er. Guignon, Kopinski and Hiltzik became the well-decorated program’s 25th, 26th and 27th All-Americans.

“It’s pretty amazing, I’m going to be up on those banners with some of those guys up there, with Kevin (Anderson), Rajeev (Ram), (Amer) Delic, all those guys. It’s pretty special, so I’m just kind of hoping to continue that success into the tournament,” Hiltzik said.

Although the singles lineup has been solid for Illinois all year, doubles is expected to be an area of worry for Brad Dancer’s team. The Illini went 15-12 in doubles over the regular season, and were very inconsistent.

“Doubles has been dicey; there’s no question about it, and we need to improve our doubles dramatically. I think we’re still not entirely convinced on what’s going to work best for us,” Dancer said.

The Illini dropped the doubles point against Ohio State in the Big Ten Tournament champi-onship match, which has weighed on the Illini’s

minds the last two weeks.The Illini have come to expect an appear-

ance in the conference tournament champi-onship match under Dancer, but this year the second place finish wasn’t enough. Illinois has also come to expect an appearance in the NCAA Tournament’s Sweet 16, as Dancer has advanced from the regional matches in six out of his eight tournament appearances. But again, that wouldn’t be enough for this year’s Illini.

This year’s Illinois team has already gar-nered more individual accolades than it had expected coming into the season, but the team has its sights set on a deep run in the tourna-ment. As expected, the team’s leader, Dancer, is urging his players to simply worry about one thing at a time.

“Focus. I think that’s what it ultimately comes down to, is the ability to play one point at a time and stay locked in, dialed in, really on the task at hand,” Dancer said. “So much of the time you get overwhelmed with score, you get overwhelmed with all these outside factors and really it’s just focusing in on what’s my plan on this point.”

Illini men’s tennis competes in NCAA regionals this weekend

BY CHRISTOPHER KENNEDYSTAFF WRITER

Last May, Vanier Joseph arrived in Austin, Texas, for the NCAA West Regional poised for success. He was fresh off of a Big Ten Championship in the 110-meter hurdles, and he had come to Austin with the No. 6 seed in the event. Joseph was expected to be one of the 12 athletes to move onto the NCAA National Championship meet.

The Illini had just arrived and were in the middle of a routine shake-out when head coach Mike Turk interrupted to bring Vanier a simple, yet foreboding message.

“I remember Coach Turk coming up to me and telling me I just needed to call home. There was something going on at home. There was something going on with my dad,” Joseph said. “My uncle told me that … they found my dad unre-sponsive, and they had to resuscitate him, and they put him on bypass.”

“He had an aneurysm. It was a heart attack. He had complications from over-night surgery and had a stroke,” said Car-ol Joseph, Vanier’s mother.

The news of his father’s critical condi-tion left Joseph with a devastating deci-sion: run in the biggest meet of the season for the opportunity to advance to Nation-als or try to return home to Detroit as his dad lay in critical condition?

Joseph decided to run. He ran for his dad.

His dad, Jean Joseph, passed away Thursday, May 23. Vanier competed on Friday.

“I don’t think he’s really, actually mourned him yet,” Carol said. “I think after everything calms down, maybe after this season is over, everything calms down and he comes back to real-ity, then it’s going to hit him. Once every-thing settles down … he’s got to open up a new chapter. But before he opens up

this new chapter, he’s got to mourn this old chapter.”

This chapter is still being written as Joseph steams towards this year’s cham-pionship season. He started writing it a long time ago, when he first started track in junior high. He has never stopped running.

“Even from then, I remember having a conversation with my dad: If I wanted to go to college … I was going to have to help him help me. I was going to have to do something in order to get a scholar-ship,” Joseph said.

Joseph grew up in Redford, Michigan, just outside of Detroit. The lasting memo-ries of his childhood involve family. Vani-er is the youngest of Carol and Jean’s four children and is the only boy, which is part of the reason he had a close rela-tionship with his father.

“When you see his dad, you see Vanier. They were close,” Carol said. “If there’s a car show out, they’d stop and look at it. Any sports, all sports, any kind of sports, they will stop. Kids playing a sport, they will stop.”

“It was just my way to make sure my dad knew I cared about him a lot, by spending as much time as I could with him,” Vanier said

Carol recalled how the Joseph family operated as a unit. They did everything together. And as Vanier got into sports, one of the Joseph family’s favorite pas-times was cheering him on.

“We made it our business … We sup-ported our kids whatever any of them wanted to do. We supported them. We got to be there, we’re there,” Carol said. “Uncles and aunties, if they were avail-able, they were there.”

Joseph recalled how his parents would come to every sport he participated in: Every basketball game, every football game, and especially every track meet.

The total support of his family was

integral to Joseph growing up. When-ever he was feeling down, he could go to his parents and his sisters to pick him up and keep him moving forward. As Joesph developed as an athlete, his dad always continued to push him to be his best.

Joseph’s success was just as exciting for his family as it was for him. Carol said that when he won, it was like the whole family had won. Joseph receiv-ing a track scholarship was a victory for the whole family.

The chapter took a new turn, but the support would remain constant.

Carol said their support of Vanier nev-er changed as he went off to college. The family still tried to make it to as many meets as it could.

Away from his family, Joseph became a part of a new family in Champaign.

“This is his extended family,” said assistant coach Adrian Wheatley, Joseph’s hurdles coach. “These are the guys who are his best friends, the guys who are going to be in his wedding, these are the guys that 10 years from now they’re calling up.”

His Illinois family traveled with Joseph to Austin last May when he got the news about his father’s health. The situation left Joseph with a gut-wrench-ing decision to make. It was a brutal contrast for the Josephs. Vanier’s pre-vious meet had fallen on both Mother’s Day and Jean’s birthday, and Vanier had marked the occasion by winning the Big Ten Championship in the 110 hurdles. A week and a half afterthat success, Joseph had to make a tough call.

Though he talked to his mom, his sis-ters and his coaches, the decision ulti-mately rested with him.

“He said he talked to his dad and his dad told him: ‘This is what you want. This is what I want. Do what you have to do,’” Carol said. “‘We talked about

this. You know what we want. You know what you said you want to do. Go for what you want to do. Don’t let me stop. I know I have to go one day … don’t let me stop you from getting to what you want to do.”

The decision to compete in the meet was Vanier’s alone. After much prayer and discussion, he knew that running was the right decision. His father had always pushed him to be the best he could be. From his first strides on the track, they had talked about him com-peting as a scholarship collegiate track

athlete. Competing in the season’s most important meet fulfilled those shared dreams on the highest level of the sport.

“Ultimately I decided my dad would love me to stay, compete and try my hardest,” Joseph said.

Joseph ran the day after his father passed away. He won his heat and qualified for the next days national quarterfinals.

“At that time, sometimes being around friends that care about you kind of

Will Krug slows down his life after 2 injuries

BY J.J. WILSONSTAFF WRITER

Will Krug sinks back into the couch cushions in his apartment late Monday night and thinks about the most chal-lenging part of his life.

He pauses for a moment before answering, considering everything he faces on a typical day. The questions people ask him about his life usually come with simple answers.

As the leadoff hitter and starting center fielder on the Illinois baseball team, he gets ambushed with the same set of questions from a flock of report-ers before and after every game.

He doesn’t mind, though, especial-ly considering he wasn’t medically cleared to play a year ago. All year he has answered each question with a cool, collected response:

How’s the offense? Strong. How’s the defense? Stronger. What can you guys do to prepare for the next game? Keep working hard and playing our game.

And when they learn he studies civil engineering with a minor in bioengi-neering, the questions change to anoth-er predictable set, which he answers no differently:

Wow, how tough is it to balance base-ball and your course load? Very. How do you do it? I don’t know, but I find a way. Why do you do it? Because I love it.

Today is the team’s off day, which doesn’t mean he can take it easy. Most of his day consists of busy work to pre-pare for his upcoming final exams. And on these days, the questions are light to

nonexistent — except for that today. And so he thinks about how to best answer.

“I ... don’t know,” he says, still think-ing about the most challenging part of his life.

Then, it hits him.“Time,” he says with a sigh. “There’s

just not enough to do everything you want to do.”

“You need help from people.”

Showing up

Associate head coach Eric Snider still remembers the first time he saw Krug, entering through the front gates of Illi-nois Field for walk-on tryouts in 2011.

Snider stood just beyond a fence some-where deep down the left field line. He was setting up the 60-yard dash to test newcomers on their speed. From that vantage, he and the other coaches can always tell which guys arrive unfocused or hungover from the night before by the way they amble about.

Krug didn’t amble. Instead, he brought enough energy for Snider to notice the 5-foot-8 freshman before he finished fill-ing out the paperwork.

The tryouts consisted of the 60-yard dash, throws from the outfield and a live scrimmage that pitted batters against pitchers to simulate a normal, in-game scenario. One of the pitchers Krug faced was Anthony Milazzo, now one of his current teammates.

“Everything that he did, he sprinted up where everybody else walked up,” Snider said. “And at the end of the day,

he picked up all the helmets.”At the time, Snider couldn’t have

known what Krug had done leading up to the tryouts.

His choice to come to Illinois was sole-ly based on education. Several Division II and Division III schools had recruit-ed him out of high school, and even one Division I school in upstate New York. But none were Illinois.

“And I knew I wanted the civil engi-neering education from the U of I,” Krug said.

The plan then became to walk on to the team, with club baseball as a less preferred alternative.

When Krug arrived on campus, two weeks stood between him and the tryout date, a time he felt he couldn’t let go to waste by doing nothing.

For liability issues, he wasn’t allowed to practice at any of the team’s facili-ties, which led to The Cage in downtown Champaign just off I-57 — about four miles from his dorm room. He traveled there almost every day leading up to the tryouts. Sometimes, the bus took him most of the way. Other times, he walked.

“Walked!” said his mother, Lori, still in disbelief two years later.

If walking to The Cage gave him the best chance, Krug didn’t mind. And his parents didn’t mind helping him afford it if it meant maintaining the corner-stone of his passion.

Slowing downOther coaches didn’t believe the Illi-

nois staff when it said it took a walk-on outfielder. Usually, teams let pitchers and catchers walk on. Not every tryout brought players who could run the 60 in 6.8 seconds. Or who could throw balls from the outfield at around 90 mph.

Krug knew how to use his speed as a small player, which was part of the draw for head coach Dan Hartleb.

Ask either Krug or his father where he gets it, and both will point directly to his mother. To this day, Dewi — as she prefers to be called — holds a spot in the hall of fame at Ripon College in Wisconsin. Her fifth-place national fin-ish in the 1,500 meter run in 1981 helped make her Ripon College’s first female

All-American. That inherited speed earned him 15

starts his freshman year, 11 as desig-nated hitter and four in right field. It also gave him enough confidence to steal bases against unfamiliar speeds of col-legiate pitchers.

Two years later, Krug leads the Illini in stolen bases and steal attempts with 18-for-25 as a junior this season.

But through his freshman year and into his sophomore season, Krug began relying on his speed almost as much off the field — more specifically, on the way to it.

While careful class scheduling alle-viated some of the stress, Krug found that his classes often ran right up until practice. The narrow window gave him just enough time to grab a peanut but-ter and jelly before he had to rush to batting practice — and sometimes not enough when professors held their class-es behind to discuss material.

“I know he gets frustrated not being able to put in all the time needed for his

diverts the burden of things and gives you some time to kind of refl ect on what had just happened and things of that nature,” Wheatley said. “Being here with the guys is the best thing for him.”

That Saturday, Joseph’s fi nished 13th, one spot short of qualifying for Nationals.

“I knew that I had to leave it all out on the track for my dad and keep in mind that he’s watching me still,” Joseph said.

Wheatley said Joseph ran as well as he could in the situation.

He ran a 13.88 while weighed down by a heavy heart. He missed the 12th and fi nal national qualifying spot by 0.01 seconds.

After the meet, Joseph returned home for his father’s funeral. Friends and family mourned Jean’s passing but as Carol said, Vanier has yet to truly mourn. He’s too focused, too locked in

on running and all the good it repre-sents for him.

“Sometimes when things are hap-pening really good and then somebody throws a wrench in it … you just focus on the good,” Carol said.

Joseph will fi nd his time to mourn after this season, his college career, this chapter of his life comes to a close. His mother knows the family will sup-port him then, just as it has through everything he has been through. They are there to celebrate his successes with him and mourn his losses with him. For now though, they won’t let him mourn. The Joseph family has been keeping Vanier focused on mov-ing forward, on looking forward rather than behind.

“We’re not letting him sit there and think about it, we’re not letting him sit there and ponder,” Carol said.

Joseph hasn’t had much time to sit and ponder. He is in the middle of fi n-ishing the best season of his career. He is ranked third in the country in the 110 hurdles and held the nation’s

fastest time for a period of time this year. Every time he has run the event this season, he has won.

Joseph is on a tear, and his dad is still playing a role in it all. This season has been special, and Joseph knows he has unfi nished business when he returns to the NCAA regional in a few weeks.

“It’s just really important for me to not come out here and not do it to the best of my abilities,” Joseph said. “I know if my dad was still here that’s what I’d be doing, competing to the highest of my abilities. He’d be ecstat-ic to the season I’m having. I’m happy about it, I know he’s happy about it, that’s what makes me happy about it, makes me able to focus on what I’m doing.”

Joseph knows he was supposed to fi n-ish much higher in the national ranks last year. He knows he will be ready to run with the country’s top hurdlers.

“I know he’s got a lot of things to prove, he’s got a big chip on his shoul-der,” Wheatley said. “He wants to prove to himself and prove to people

around the country that he’s one of the top hurdlers.”

Wheatley knows that when Joseph has a goal he fully commits and focuses all of his energy on it. Right now it’s being focused on the end of the Illini’s season: Big Tens and the return to the NCAA regional. In the future he has aspirations to continue running and compete in the Olympics, something else he had talked to his dad about all those years ago when he was starting out in the sport.

But that is a for another chapter in his story. Right now, Joseph is locked in on the exciting conclusion to this one. He is eager to return to the regional and perform the way that he knows he can, but he also knows he needs to stay focused.

“I can’t let myself get too hyped up, too caught into the moment,” Joseph said. “I really need to dial in, be able to clear my mind and be able to just focus on my race and not focus on all the other emotions that will be going on.”

With his family and his family of

teammates behind him, Joseph is ready to prove himself on the national level. He knows his dad would be proud of the way he’s fi nishing his chapter.

“The last meet that his dad went to … my husband knew he was sick,” Carol said. “My husband’s like, ‘Wow, my son’s going to make it … you know what, I think my son is going to do real good, I have high hopes for my son.’”

The NCAA West Regional comes at the end of May and is the beginning of the end of Joseph’s collegiate career. It is the end of this chapter for Joseph, and it gives him a vehicle for fulfi ll-ing his father’s hopes. Joseph will toe the line at the meet as a culmination of everything he and his dad dreamed of when they hoped he could earn a scholarship. His father’s words will echo in his head.

“Don’t stop doing what you’re doing. This is what you want. This is what I want. Do what you have to do.”

major,” his mom said. “You can’t hurry engineering.”

Krug confessed to breaking into a run sometimes on his way to practice, with Snider always there to joke about his commit-ment. Jokes, and nothing more, because once Krug arrives at the fi eld, everything switches over to baseball.

“Mentally, he gets too fast,” said his father, Arthur. “That’s when you see Coach Snider slow him down.”

Krug’s work ethic wound up an issue in the most untraditional of ways. The same effort he brought on the fi rst day didn’t seem to have much of an off switch, at least not one he could regular-ly fl ip.

Whenever he gets too wound up or harps on a bad at-bat, Snid-er steps in to unwind him and keep him from carrying one bad moment with him.

“For Will, it’s about not think-ing that he’s going to go 20-for-20,” Snider said. “When I see him speeding everything up, I have to remind him to slow it down.”

Getting back up

At the beginning of his soph-

omore year, other forces inter-vened to help Krug step on the brakes.

Athletic trainer Jim Halpin noticed he was showing symp-toms of an athletic pubalgia — or a sports hernia, as it’s com-monly called. Fortunately for Krug, the injury was something that could be worked through without missing playing time. A few anti-infl ammatories and steady rehab exercises should have been all it took.

And it might have been, too, had a full-count fastball not smashed against his left arm at Indiana on April 5, 2013.

Krug didn’t think the pitch would hit him up until the moment it did. And even once it had, he couldn’t have guessed it had broken his arm.

If he’d known, there’s a chance he wouldn’t have stolen second base on the next few pitches — but probably not a big chance. The Illini were down two runs in the eighth inning.

“I ended up scoring and stayed in the game,” Krug said. “I was about to go on deck at the end of the game, but I don’t think I’d have been able to swing the bat if I tried.”

Both of his parents were up in the bleachers that night and could immediately tell some-thing was wrong by the way

their son held his arm, tender-ly and displaced.

The next morning, when Krug couldn’t even turn his arm over, Indiana opened up its x-ray facilities to examine the inju-ry. The verdict was a cracked ulna bone in his arm, which left the rest of his season unclear.

“With a broken bone, you’re never quite sure how fast it’s going to heal,” Halpin said.

The original hope was he’d be out four to six weeks, with an x-ray every other week to moni-tor the healing process. Because of the broken bone, he was tak-en off the anti-infl ammatories, which meant he would need sur-gery to correct his sports her-nia. And when the bone showed no immediate signs of healing, the Illini coaches were forced to make a decision.

“Just let the bone heal, go do the surgery, and then we’ll regroup and start over again in the fall,” Halpin said.

Krug spent two months on the sidelines, watching his team succeed without him in the lead-off spot. He was around for the three remaining home series, but the NCAA travel rules didn’t allow him to travel.

When the team played in the NCAA regional in Nashville on May 31, Krug watched from a TV screen, his attitude positive

the entire time. And why not? His thoughts and efforts on the baseball fi eld are always toward the betterment of his team.

But no amount of effort or energy changed the fact that there was nothing he could to help his team. In Illinois base-ball’s most important moment since he arrived, he was com-pletely helpless.

“To get injured like that, I’m sure it was crushing,” Snid-er said.

If anything, though, Krug’s h e l p l e s s n e s s added more per-spective to his situation. He never appreci-ated the words “slow down” more than when he was at a dead halt.

He thought about how fast he had been mov-ing before his injury, and how much faster an injury can take it all away. Every game, every at-bat, every moment had been taken for granted before, and he would never let that happen again.

“It could end tomorrow,” Krug said. “School work, or any-thing now, I give it 100 percent

of my effort now.”Holding it together

When Krug came back in the fall, he still worked as hard as he had on his fi rst day.

“He was still trying to make up six to seven months all in one day,” Snider said. “And it’s not going to come back in one day.”

Time off in the summer gave him a chance to understand just

what it took to make a life like his work.

Doing things fast didn’t mean con-stantly worry-ing about let-ting things slip by. It meant accepting he could only do so many things with his time.

“There are only a limit-

ed number of hours in the day,” Krug said.

It also meant he had to accept those things could only be done with the help from others, wheth-er its getting reads from pitchers or having a teammate quiz him for tomorrow’s biology quiz.

When he and teammate Andrew Mamlic pull books out from their carry-on bags, they

don’t mind other players tease them about it. Even if the plane ride is only about 45 minutes long, it’s time free to get one extra homework problem done.

“He’s woken me up to ask me questions,” Mamlic laughed. “But you’ve got to manage your time somehow.”

If running into practice from his parking spot in the dirt lot gives him an extra minute to practice baseball, Krug will take it.

“I’ll work as hard as I can and play as long as I can,” Krug said. “That’s kind of a dream right now, and I’m just going to keep chasing it.”

In games, he still uses his speed to steal a base whenever he gets the chance, but he’s not as anxious about getting there as he once was. He knows he can count on help from his teammates to put their team in a position to win games.

And when the games are over and the media crowd fi nally fans out, he always makes sure to carve some time to visit his family down on the fi eld.

Because when there’s enough time for the things in life you love, it takes a while for the chal-lenges hit you.

Another year of Illini sports is drawing to a close.

The past calendar year has been an eventful one for Illi-nois athletics. Campus has seen renovations begin at mul-tiple iconic venues. The “Illi-nois brand” received a new identity, courtesy of Nike. Star athletes in several sports emerged on the national scene.

Ultimately though, noth-ing stands out to me as proof that this year was a definitive success. To be honest, I won’t remember the 2013-14 year of Illini sports as overly positive. My Illini fan ego took a bruis-ing on more than one occasion.

Most notably, it took a hit on what may be the three consec-utive most depressing days in recent Illini history.

The pain started last Nov. 14, when Quentin Snider, the Illinois men’s basketball team’s highly-touted recruit, de-committed from the Illini and committed to Louisville. The very next day, Cliff Alex-ander happened.

In case you missed it, as one of the best high school play-ers in the country, Alexan-der’s decision on where he would play college basketball was aired on national tele-vision. With several “inside sources” indicating that Alex-ander would choose the Illini, the day was much-anticipated. Alexander faced the camera, fake-donned an orange Illinois hat and picked up a Kansas one instead.

The incident made many Illi-

ni fans angry, myself included. Illinois became the punch-line of jokes on the Internet and even on Jimmy Kimmel Live. And since bad things happen in threes, Nov. 16 wasn’t kind to Illini Nation, either.

Pictures of a woefully empty student section at Memorial Stadium for the Illinois-Ohio State football game made the rounds on the Internet, further twisting the knife embedded in an Illini fan’s psyche.

Things looked bleak in early winter as well, when volleyball was bounced from the NCAA tournament at home and the men’s basketball team endured an eight-game losing skid.

Up to that point, the state of Illini athletics wasn’t great. But don’t worry, things got better, and an eventful spring ensured Illinois athletics was able to save face.

The men’s basketball team finished its season in decent fashion. Jesse Delgado won an individual NCAA title in wres-tling and Jordan Valdez won one in men’s gymnastics. The men’s tennis, men’s golf and baseball teams enjoyed very strong regular seasons, and they all have yet to play in the NCAA postseason.

While the spring has been relatively kind to the Illini, the main reason I refuse to declare this year an unsuc-cessful one overall is because of the signs I saw this year that Illinois athletics is headed in the right direction. Across most of our sports, rosters are young and talented. I’m hard-pressed to come up with an Illini team that isn’t expected to improve in 2014-15.

My optimism also comes from the spring’s off-the-field efforts to make sure Illinois sports are relevant for years

to come. The State Farm Cen-ter renovation and the Nike re-brand shows that we are a school that is striving to move forward athletically.

When you have a large num-ber of teams at a Division I

program like Illinois, there will inevitably be good teams and bad ones every year. There will be memorable per-formances and days you’d like to forget as a fan. And even though the past year brought

plenty of unfortunate losses and some bad PR, I’m going to ultimately remember 2013-14 as a year of transition.

Illini fans have suffered for a while now. But I think they’ll look back at 2013-14 as the

year Illinois sports began to turn the corner.

BY ASHLEY WIJANGCOSTAFF WRITER

Freshman Stephanie Miller was in her dorm room with her roommate, freshman gymnast Sarah Lyons, when the NCAA announced the team and individ-ual qualifiers for golf Regionals. The two student-athletes were watching the Golf Channel await-ing results for the Illinois wom-en’s golf team. The team itself wasn’t selected, but when it was announced Miller and senior Ember Schuldt qualified to play at the Central Regional, the two freshmen began jumping around, yelling in excitement.

Both Miller and Schuldt would have preferred that the

team qualified, but they’re hap-py to accompany one another from May 8 to 10 to Stillwater, Okla., and the par-72, 6,200-yard Karsten Creek Golf Club.

“I’m excited to see how she does this week, and I get to wit-ness it first-hand for once,” Miller said of Schuldt. “I’m so grateful to be able to spend this time with her. She’s a wonderful role model both on and off the course, and I’m so lucky to go on this trip with her. Her final season is slowly closing on a very positive note.”

They will be two of six indi-vidual golfers playing a total of 54 holes over the course of three rounds. Neither of the golfers nor head coach Renee Slone has seen

the course at Karsten Creek. Assistant coach Jenny Coluc-cio and her husband, on the oth-er hand, have played the course before. She mentioned the course has generous fairways, but the greens are tricky and play fast.

“The keys for their success on this course are to stay patient and trust their instincts on and around the greens,” Coluccio said. “Our two previous tourna-ments (the Lady Buckeye Invi-tational and Big Ten Cham-pionships), have been great preparation for what they will see this week.”

Schuldt, an All-Big Ten sec-ond-team selection, is the first three-time Regional qualifier

in Illinois history. The first two times she qualified, Schuldt com-peted with the team.

When asked what it’s like for Schuldt to go to Regionals, Coluc-cio said, “She is a great player, but more than that, she is the student-athlete and teammate every coach wishes and wants to have on their team. I was so hap-py to see her hard work pay off, and her collegiate career con-tinued for a little while longer.”

Miller has also made history by becoming the first freshman Regional qualifier in Illinois his-tory. Schuldt said she’s deserv-ing of this after having “a great freshman season.” Coluccio add-ed it’s “a great achievement”

and gives her another opportu-nity to compete after a less than ideal spring season. Slone con-curred saying it’s “a great start to her college career” and that it’s “only the beginning of many more great things to come.” For Miller, though, competing at Regionals just feels like any other tournament.

“We all go out and post a num-ber and see how it compares to everyone else,” Miller said. “It doesn’t matter how old or how young you are. We’re all there to play some golf.”
