The Military Education Council, or MEC, began dis-cussing the idea of adding a military science minor to the campus and has remained in the primary discussion stages for over a year.

Despite the council’s hopes to begin finalizing details this year, George Friedman, MEC member, has stepped down as chair of the sub-committee working on implementing the minor, post-poning further dis-cussion until next semester.

“I believe that the military minor is an excellent idea, and I’m hoping that others can see it to approval over the next year or so,” Friedman said.

Michael Murphy, MEC mem-ber, has been appointed to take Friedman’s place as chair of the Committee on Course and Program Approval, which is in charge of developing the poten-tial minor.

MEC chairman Alexan-der Scheeline said Friedman spoke to him about stepping down from the position over a month ago. Friedman has been a retired professor of computer science since 1999 and will also

be retiring as a member of the MEC at the end of the academic year for personal reasons.

“I’m retired, and I fi nd that I’m not able to devote the time to this project that it really needs,” Friedman said. “Also, I think that someone who is an active faculty member would be better able to lead this subcommittee.”

Scheeline said he immediate-ly began talking to other members and decided to appoint Murphy, professor of animal sciences, as chair. He added that Murphy has a long record of par-ticipating in various committees on the campus and is high-ly qualifi ed to take over the project.

Murphy said he has agreed to con-

tinue with Friedman’s work on the minor proposal but had no further comment.

The next step is fi guring out which courses would be required for students to take in order to receive a military science minor, Scheeline said. Because students can minor in anything, regardless of their college, these courses could be from any department as long as the departments agree to

Leader’s departure delays military minor

The Twin City Derby Girls , or TCDG, Champaign-Urba-na’s fl at-track roller derby league, kicked off its 2012 sea-son Saturday against Evans-ville’s Demolition City Roller Derby.

Each roller derby game, also known as a bout, consists of two 30-minute periods and a halftime. Each period is made up of a series of two-minute jams. In each jam, fi ve skaters from each team — one jam-mer and four blockers — take to the fl oor to compete. All 10 players then begin to skate around the circular track. A team scores when their jam-mer passes members of the opposing team. The role of the blockers is to prevent jam-mers from passing by using any offi cial check.

The TCDG traveling squad, known as the Twin City Trav-elers, plays against competing leagues at the David S. Palmer Arena in Danville. The local games, against three Cham-paign-Urbana teams — The Boneyard Bombshells, The ’Paign, and The Damagin’ Dames — are held at Skate-land Savoy. In its fi rst year, TCDG membership shot up from 7 to more than 80 mem-bers, making it one of the fast-est-growing leagues in the country.

“Being a grown woman, it’s hard to fi nd a way to work out and be competitive. This is kind of the answer for a lot of women,” said Chelsea Norton , TCDG public relations and community outreach chair, also know by her skater name Chiquita Bandita.

Part of the attraction to der-by is that skaters frequent-ly take on fi ctitious “derby names” – such as local skat-ers “Delta Badhand” and “Ter-ror Misu.” Skaters also com-monly don unusual attire like fi shnet stockings and colorful knee socks.

“In just two years, TCDG has exploded onto the C-U sports scene,” said TCDG president Tina Davis in a press release. “We are well on our way to becoming one of the most competitive leagues in the region.”

Tina Davis, president of the league , also known as Terror Misu, said roller derby will be popular for a long time.

“(For our own league,) the trick is fi nding a balance between being competitive nationally and locally,” Davis said. “We are cognizant that the league meets different needs for our members, and I think our success will be in providing the platforms for our league members to meet their own goals in the sport.”

Norton said the league was founded on the belief that roll-er derby is not just about win-ning games.

Southward on Lincoln Avenue, past the cows and through the gate with the clothespins that hang in the shape of a tomato, sits the Sustainable Student Farm. The farm, which was created in 2009, aims to create a more sustainable campus by producing locally grown food and supplying it to the University.

As one of its newest projects, Zachary Grant , farm manager, is currently work-ing with a graduate-level architecture

class to build a new high-tunnel green-house, which will protect crops from harsh weather conditions.

The plants grown in the high tunnels, such as lettuce and carrots, will be dis-tributed to dining halls, University cater-ing and farmers markets, which will be held on Thursdays on the Quad.

In celebration of Earth Day, which is Sunday, the farm will host a mini-high tunnel workshop Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the University Arboretum’s Idea Garden, where students will get the

opportunity to help build a small-scale high tunnel.

“We’re trying to get students involved in any way possible,” Grant said. “Some of the money that we get to do this proj-ect actually comes from student fees anyway, so we’re trying to get students to take ownership regardless if they’re in crop science or not.”

In addition to using the high tun-nels, the farm rents three rooms at the Plant Sciences Laboratory greenhous-es to ensure that the plants germinate before they are put in the ground. Once the ground has thawed, they are trans-ported back to the farm during plant-ing season.

After driving back and forth between

greenhouses and the farm to water the plants, Grant said he would prefer if everything were in one spot, as there is not enough space in the research greenhouses.

Back at the farm, Tim Smith, a Univer-sity alumnus and two-year farm volun-teer, said the farm exemplifi es the posi-tives of sustainable farming.

“There’s some lower-tech ways of doing things out here that apply to how people subsist in less industrialized plac-es,” Smith said. “Working at a place like this, you’re standing at the intersection of effi cient and sustainable food produc-tion with economic forces.”

La Colectiva , a student social justice organization that focus-es primarily on immigra-tion reform, held a fundraiser Wednesday regarding a schol-arship that would be given to undocumented students on campus.

The scholarship initiative is occurring while other legisla-tion that seeks to aid undocu-mented students await approv-

al, including the DREAM Act, which would help undocumented students gain citizenship.

The idea for the scholarship originally arose after a member of La Colectiva, Andrea Rosales , was arrested last year because she protested legislation that would prohibit school registra-tion for undocumented individu-als in Georgia. An online dona-tion program began and quickly raised enough funds within two days to bail her out.

“After the online initiative worked, our focus shifted to an annual scholarship benefi tting this group (undocumented stu-dents),” said Fernando Vazquez , president of La Colectiva and senior in LAS. “These students that we’re aiding came to the United States when they were very young. This is their home and they’re Americans in every sense in the way ... it’s benefi cial

Misconceptions of college in the media

The media inaccurately por-trays the college experience, offering images of raging par-ties — and hardly anything else — to depict higher education.

for this country to have them.”The event also featured story

readings of stories written by peo-ple the scholarship would affect.

“A lot of them just need help, and help isn’t available,” said Jose Sanchez , senior in LAS. “Being an undocumented student is almost an invisible marker for them and can be extremely hard in just attending here. There are stories of students calling the fi nancial aid offi ce trying to get help and actually being recommended to not attend the University at all.”

Sanchez said similar to that of other states, Illinois illegal immi-gration laws can be strict and

deportation is openly used. Yet it seems that Illinois could be tak-ing a more open approach towards immigration as a result of recent discussion about the DREAM Act. Under the act, qualifi cations such as graduating high school and mil-itary service would grant undoc-umented immigrants citizenship. But because the act has yet to pass and more illegal immigrants are still arriving at the University, one concern regarding the schol-arship has been the confi dential-ity of those who receive it.

“This scholarship is going to be open for undocumented stu-dents but not just for undocument-ed students,” Vazquez said. “We won’t be asking for any Social Security numbers or other proof of citizenship, so hopefully that

will create a safe space for stu-dents to be willing to apply for the scholarship.”

With the announcement of the initiative, members of La Colec-tiva feel that it could be a large step forward for undocumented students on campus. Even non-members of La Colectiva are help-ing out.

“I stayed up until 2 a.m. just try-ing to help them with this event, and I’m not even a member,” said Gabriela Pedroza , senior in LAS. “This is very close to my fami-ly. Both my parents and siblings were undocumented. I was the only natural-born citizen. I know that this is a cause that could help people like them ... and people are going out of their way to bring attention to it.”

DETROIT — The U.S. auto industry, already stretching to meet rising demand for cars and trucks, is facing shortag-es of parts and materials that could limit the number of new vehicles in showrooms later this year and crimp a historic turnaround.

The most immediate problem — a shortage of a crucial plas-tic resin, caused by an explosion March 31 at a plant in Germany — could surface in a few weeks. And later this year or beyond, automakers could be confront-ed with an even bigger crisis,

running short of parts simply because there aren’t enough fac-tories and people to make them.

No one is entirely sure how many plants or models will be affected by either prob-lem. Automakers say they are working to avoid shortages in both cases. But it may be tough to manage the intricate chain of companies that make most of the 3,000 parts that go into every car, from tiny valves and computer chips to heavy metal castings for transmissions.

“A lot of them are under pres-sure because they reduced their staff and temporarily moth-balled some of their factories,”

said Jim Gillette, an analyst with IHS Automotive.

Automakers and suppliers are working together to try to avert plant shutdowns because of the resin shortage. They are trying to fi gure out how many fi nished parts are available, how much resin is in stock, how best to use it, and what could serve as a substitute, said Sharland, who led an industrywide meeting Tuesday to deal with the crisis.

Crises like this aren’t new for the industry. The earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan last year knocked out parts plants and forced the industry to scramble for alternatives.

NEW DELHI — India is plan-ning to test launch a new nuclear-capable missile that for the fi rst time would give it the capabil-ity of hitting the major Chinese cities of Beijing and Shanghai.

The government has hailed the Agni-V missile, with a range of 5,000 kilometers, or 3,100 miles, as a major boost to its efforts to counter China’s regional domi-nance and become an Asian pow-er in its own right.

The test launch was slated to come as early as Wednesday evening, but Indian media said a delay was likely because of poor weather conditions.

“It will be a quantum leap in India’s strategic capability,” said Ravi Gupta , spokesman for India’s Defense Research and Development Organization, which built the missile.

China is far ahead of India in

the missile race, with interconti-nental ballistic missiles capable of reaching anywhere in India. Currently, the longest-range Indian missile, the Agni-III, has a range of only 3,500 kilometers, or 2,100 miles, and falls short of many major Chinese cities.

India and China fought a war in 1962 and continue to nurse a bor-der dispute. India has also been suspicious of Beijing’s efforts to increase its infl uence in the Indi-an Ocean in recent years.

“While China doesn’t real-ly consider India any kind of a threat or any kind of a rival, India defi nitely doesn’t think in the same way,” said Rahul Bedi, a defense analyst in New Delhi.

India already has the capabil-ity of hitting anywhere inside archrival Pakistan but has engaged in a splurge of defense spending in recent years to coun-ter the perceived Chinese threat.

The Indian navy took com-

mand of a Russian nuclear sub-marine earlier this year, and India is expected to take deliv-ery of a retrofi tted Soviet-built aircraft carrier soon.

The new Agni, named for the Hindi word for fi re, is part of this military buildup and was designed to hit deep inside Chi-na, Bedi said.

Government offi cials said the missile should not be seen as a threat.

“We have a declared no-fi rst-use policy, and all our missile systems, they are not country specifi c. There is no threat to anybody,” Gupta said. “Our mis-sile systems are purely for deter-rence and to meet our security needs.”

The launch window for the missile test, which is being conducted on Wheeler Island off India’s east coast, opened Wednesday evening and closes Friday, Gupta said.

India to test long-range missile that could hit major Chinese cities

However, Grant said he believes it is possible for the industrial-farm industry and small-scale farms to coexist.

“There are 27 million acres of the best farmland in the entire world in Illinois,” he said. “What I’m lobbying for is a tenth of that, which is 20,000 to 40,000 student farms, which could cre-

ate a small-scale farm industry in the state, which would hard-ly impede on the ag-industrial farmland.”

Danielle Schaffrath , senior in ACES, came to volunteer with two of her friends, whom are all planning on attending the Earth Day event Saturday as well.

“I like the local interaction because you get to know your farmer and where your food comes,” she said. “You get to know the processes of growing

your food and all the hard work that goes into it.”

Grant said any student is wel-come to volunteer at the farm.

“If you have an interest in learning about real food, wheth-er it’s in the growing part of it or anything you want to bring to the table, we encourage people to come out and get experience,” Grant said.

Interested students can visit the farm’s website at thefarm.illinois.edu.

make our community — and our world — a better place for every-one,” she said in a press release.

In February, the league was accepted as a full member of the Women’s Flat Track Derby Asso-ciation, or WFTDA, after a com-prehensive application process. The traveling squad will now compete for rankings within the WFTDA, an international associa-tion of more than 200 roller derby leagues.

“It means we can now play

against other full WFTDA leagues to qualify for regional, and even-tually, national tournaments,” said Cari Rich , vice-president of the league. “In baseball terms, we’ve graduated from the minors to the majors.”

The league has also made a commitment to giving back to the community by teaming up with local non-profi ts. TCDG donates a portion of the money it raises from events to local charities.

This year, the league partnered with Rape Advocacy, Counsel-ing, and Education Services, or R.A.C.E.S, a group of rape crisis centers.

“The work they do is extreme-ly important to our mission of empowering women and girls locally,” Rich said. “Proceeds from our home bouts will help them provide services in the community.”

As the size of the league contin-ues to grow in Champaign-Urba-na, so does the support. Fans now come in support of their favorite teams and players — even asking for the occasional autograph.

“From the hardcore athleticism and strategy of the game to the crazy ‘boutfi ts’ and derby names, there’s something for everyone at a derby bout,” Rich said.

expand class capacities for addi-tional students.

With that in mind, Scheeline said Murphy will have to talk to “a bunch of people in a bunch of different departments” to get their approval.

“When we present a proposal

for this minor, we’ll need to have covered very detailed questions,” Scheeline said. “When you have something, like this minor, that is going to be affecting students across colleges, you want to make sure there won’t be any depart-ments that feel blindsided.”

He said those discussions haven’t been brought to the table yet. And now with the new chair, the conversation regarding the

minor will not resume until fall 2012. Scheeline said he is okay with taking extra time to create the minor.

“It’s later than I had wanted, but I think I’ve stressed this many times: we want it done right, not quickly,” Scheeline said. “Yes, we want to reach clo-sure, but we want to do it care-fully, making sure we don’t over-look anything.”

Vigil held for students killed in USC shooting

MELANIE CHALLBERG THE DAILY ILLINI

Summers Guo, freshman in Business, participates in a vigil dedicated to two international students who were killed last week at the University of Southern California. The memorial was held at the Asian American Cultural Center in Urbana on Wednesday. Last week, a gunman opened fi re near the campus, killing two students in a robbery attempt.

HBO’s ‘Girls’ honestly depicts modern women

Be careful when signing your leaseOur hearts go out to Alicia

Smith.Smith was profi led in a

front-page story in yesterday’s paper. We read about her struggles with a campus landlord, which ultimately led to her eviction.

Could you imagine?She’s a college student here

at the University, just like us, trying to get a degree and better her and her son’s lives. Although fi nding a place to live is admittedly an important decision, most students don’t spend much time on their

search. Often a group project or that pressing 9 a.m. exam takes more precedence. This carelessness is what leads to so many of the horror stories we hear about from our friends.

However, reading Smith’s story should be a wake-up call to all of us; signing a lease is not something to be taken lightly. But we forget that we have the Tenant Union, funded by our student fees, to help us through this housing process. To not take advantage of all their services just isn’t smart.

Not only does the Tenant

Union have an immense database of every landlords’ properties, it also has a comprehensive list of every complaint fi led against each of them. As you can imagine, that list is rather long, but the Tenant Union will sit down with you and explain everything you may need to know.

Moreover, there are simple tips that every single student looking for an apartment needs to keep in mind: First, when signing an apartment lease, ask to see the exact unit where you will live. Second, take pictures

of everything for proof should you dispute a claim. Third, and most importantly, ensure that every agreement you make with your landlord is in writing.

Smith’s ultimate struggle came down to a he said, she said verbal debate. In the court of law, and as we unfortunately saw in Smith’s case, those verbal contracts hold nearly no value.

If you’re signing a sublease

for the summer or still haven’t signed for next fall, be smart. Use your resources and your intuition and the Tenant Union.

Wall shows students just want to lay blame

I consider myself pro-Peace in the Middle East. I am pro-Israel, pro-Palestine and pro-Negotia-tions. Seeing the Israeli Apart-heid Wall on campus put up by Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), shows me that the group is not actually interested in the advancement of the peace pro-cess or advocating for the rights of Palestinians. They seem to be more interested in simply blam-ing Israel for any and every prob-lem in Palestinian society rath-er than taking on initiatives that promote Palestinian welfare.

I understand SJP’s hope for Palestinians to live normal lives. I myself hope this will be a real-ity in the near future. But so far this year, the agenda of this “pro-Palestinian” group has been a

simply anti-Israel one.Even if Israel pulled out all

settlements from the West Bank tomorrow, the confl ict would not be solved in the snap of the fi n-gers. The confl ict is rooted in a place much deeper than Isra-el’s right to protect its citizens. It lies in the fact that, for an autonomous Palestinian state to succeed, a strong and sustain-able Palestinian civil society is needed.

So what do we do? If we real-ly want to work toward a peace-ful solution, we must look at both narratives. We must support negotiations and discussion. Con-fl icts are not solved by pointing fi ngers. They are solved by sup-porting grassroots organizations, by negotiating and by looking at the bigger picture.

Downsizing cultural housesAs a member of the Black Stu-

dent Association, I, and other members of the student body and community stakeholders, oppose downsizing cultural centers and other units by combining them.

We also take issue with this generation of leaders who attempt to erase history and exclude the local Urbana-Champaign commu-nity from its deliberation.

We shall respond to this organi-zational nonsense in the fall prior to the Black alumni reunion.

Fair sentencing should apply to unsentenced drug cases

In Barcelona, people sell cans of coke on the street. It seems innocent enough

until you realize, it ain’t cola, my friends.

Yes, apparently cocaine is so prevalent in this infa-mously “independent” Spanish region that if you breathe you get a whiff of the “crunch and munch” (really trying to make use of the new street terms I learned).

We may not have the same problem here in the states, but we do have our own age-old issues with crack and cocaine.

There are some important dif-ferences though: One is more refi ned than the other, one you snort, one you smoke, one you can make with baking soda, and a little bit of one can get you in a lot more trouble than a little bit of the other.

It used to be that 5 grams of crack would get you fi ve years in jail, and 500 grams of cocaine would get you an equivalent sentence .

It’s well known that this 100-1 ratio has had an unfair effect on racial minorities, specifi cally the African American communi-ty, and as Justice Sonia Sotomay-or stated Tuesday, “I’ve been a judge for nearly 20 years, and I don’t know that there’s one law that has created more controver-sy or more discussion about its racial impact than this one.”

This old law was remedied on Aug. 3, 2010, when President Barack Obama signed the Fair Sentencing Act, reducing the overall punishments for crack offenses, effectively making the ratio 18-1 (28 grams of crack to 5 years in prison).

Now that the new law has been enacted, what’s at issue is whether it applies to crimes committed before Aug. 3, 2010.

Traditionally, laws do not apply retroactively unless Con-gress specifi es that they should. In this case, Congress didn’t specify anything.

So now we’re left with a num-ber of people who committed crack or cocaine offenses before August 2010, but weren’t sen-tenced until after the Fair Sen-tencing Act went into effect.

The Supreme Court justices

seem convinced that if Congress wanted to have the law apply retroactively, they would have said so.

Well, the thing is, they sort of have.

They may not have stated explicitly that in the law, but two congressional members, including our own Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, submitted a let-ter to Attorney General Eric Holder, which said the goal of the act was to make federal cocaine sentencing fair as soon as possible.

“The Fair Sentencing Act’s reduced crack penalties should apply to defendants whose con-duct predates enactment of the legislation but who have not yet been sentenced,” said Durbin in the letter. ”Otherwise, defen-dants will continue to be sen-

tenced under a law that Con-gress has determined is unfair for the next fi ve years ... This absurd result is obviously incon-sistent with the purpose of the Fair Sentencing Act.”

Aside from the letter, it should be clear that the point of the new law was to remedy a racial disparity, and it doesn’t really make sense for this disparity to be preserved for those who were unfortunate enough to commit crimes before the law went into effect.

Suddenly if you sold crack on Aug. 2nd, 2010 you’re so much luckier than someone who sold crack on Aug. 4th, 2010. Some-thing about that just doesn’t seem right.

Take for example, the case of Corey Hill who wasn’t convicted until 2009 after he sold 53 grams

of crack to a government infor-mant in 2007. In December 2010, just 3 months after the Fair Sen-tencing Act was enacted, a Chi-cago judge sentenced him to 10 years in prison. If the new law had applied, Hill would have only gone to jail for four years, said The Los Angeles Times.

More than just that, how can we ask judges to award a sen-tence based on a law that Con-gress has already deemed as unfair?

Most importantly, we’re cre-ating a huge divide between defendants who committed the exact same crimes but at differ-ent times.

That wasn’t the intention of the law, and the Supreme Court should recognize that.

In a rare moment of TV show unanimity — all of our other shows having

at least one holdout, partially due to the fact that I refuse to watch vampire dramas — my three roommates and I eager-ly clicked on HBO’s new series, “Girls,” on Sunday night.

The unglamorous plot line, “Girl in the big city with the unpaid internship getting cut off by her parents so they can buy a lake house,” has had the media buzzing for months. And for good reason: We loved it.

The show, which CNN pinned as “Awkward, but honest,” had a few off-kilter moments, like an out-of-nowhere opium trip and a sex scene so painfully awk-ward that I covered my eyes. But all in all, it struck some of the realities of being a Gen-eration Y girl, which makes sense, because it’s written by a 25-year-old woman.

The composite picture of us girls in the media these days, though it’s kind of funny there in the indie rock-soundtracked HBO glow of it all, is kind of sad and pathetic. Hannah, the main character in the show, exempli-fi es many of the parts of lady-dom that aren’t particularly fl attering. She and the quint-essential girls on TV cling to boys that don’t like them back, depend on their parents for money, blow off their friends for loser dudes, can’t break up with said loser dudes because they’re afraid of being single, and can’t hold a conversation without the requisite “likes,” “ohmygod’s,” and “seriously’s.” Not all of us are really like that, even though that breed of girl overruns pop culture.

This leaves me to wonder : Is the patheticness of “Girls” a comment on the intrinsic dif-fi culty in being a young woman in this day and age, or is it con-demning us for not transcend-ing that diffi culty? Emily Nuss-baum’s NY Daily News piece put it best when she called the show “A bold defense (and a

searing critique) of the so-called Millennial Generation by a person still in her twenties.”

On one hand, girls these days don’t have it easy. Political groups are waging war against female reproductive rights. There still isn’t any sign of wage equality. Sexism, in many ways, is still alive and well.

Economically, the show is right on point. For girls (and boys), the workforce has never been more foreboding. In one scene, Hannah admits to her weasely on-again-off-again hookup that she’s been fi nan-cially supported by her parents. He admits that he’s still in the same boat, “My grandma gives me $800 a month ... I supple-ment.” A recent Pew Research Center study reported that 49 percent of 18- to 34-year-olds say they’ve taken a job they didn’t want to pay the bills, and nearly a quarter have worked an unpaid job to get experience. The “getting fi red from the unpaid internship” plot line may have been outright hilarity ten years ago, but for us Millenials, it was a reminder of a dismal reality.

The show also touches on the female friendship of a bygone era. The female friendship we’ve grown up with has been rife with cattiness and passive-aggressiveness; the kind where we gossip about each other then digitally gush over each other’s profi le pictures. We’ve been sub-jected to the annoying frenemy TV relationships of Gen Y, but “Girls” represents the modern female friendship — the kind that is utterly fulfi lling and unconditional. When was the last time you saw two twenty-something girls actually being nice to each other on TV?

And on the other OPI-pol-ished hand, the show is indeed a critique, pointing out the traits of the media’s “modern girl” — the needy, superfi cial, boy-obsessed one — that we all hate but all act like every now and then. To that end, I think young women need to take “Girls” in stride and accept it as a chal-lenge — to prove that we really are better than our gum-pop-pin,’ gold-digging, gossiping TV counterparts.

Heading home: Students weigh in on bus choices

W e’ve all been there. Your parents are expect-ing you home for the

weekend, it’s already Thurs-day afternoon, and you’ve yet to purchase your ticket back to your hometown. Of all the dif-ferent bus services on campus, which one do you choose? I surveyed a handful of students to fi nd out.

Suburban ExpressPrice range: $19.95-$29.95 for

a one-way ticket Prices tend to be higher as you

buy your ticket closer to the day you are leaving, and are more expensive on the weekends.

Pros:Reliable and convenient service

Some students choose Sub-urban Express because of how close it drops them off to home, or for the fact that if you live in PAR/FAR or ISR, the bus picks you up right in front. Some bus services have been known to arrive at their destination far beyond the expected arrival time, or to arrive at the pick-up location at least 15 minutes early. Suburban Express keeps it pret-ty consistent.

“(It’s) the most popular,” said Michelle Kelley , sophomore in LAS. “There is a reason behind it. It’s convenient and has a lot of available times. It’s my bus of choice.”

Cons:Expensive

Although students have spo-ken highly of the Suburban Express’s great service, they have also commented on the high prices.

Suburban Express has a high-er price range and rarely offers tickets far in advance, so an average one-way trip to Chicago or the Chicagoland areas range from about $20 to $30.

Marco Velarde , freshman in Engineering, said he doesn’t like the high ticket price, not just because there were cheap-er options, but because not all of the promised services, such as Wi-Fi, were included.

Does not always have all the amenities promised

Sometimes bus services are so busy, especially on holiday week-ends, that they don’t drive their

main buses. Therefore, some buses don’t have Wi-Fi, making it an inconvenience for students who planned to get work done, or just wanted to listen to music online during their trip.

Inappropriate Advertising“SEXpress,” “Get some,” and

“We’re not LEX,” are only a few of the advertisements Suburban Express puts out on their bright yellow fl yers.

“They have a very negative advertising campaign,” said Hollis Johanson , a freshman in LAS. “I don’t think any of that is really necessary to get kids to choose (Suburban Express).”

Lincolnland Express (LEX)Price range: Using coupons

and promo codes can cut down the price, but tickets can range anywhere from $10 to $30.

Pros: Lenient on the no-ticket rule

Whether it’s a random student from your chemistry class, one of your travel buddies, or even you, chances are that almost everyone has witnessed the tick-et collector deny someone access to the bus because they left their ticket at home or forgot to print it out.

“I had just printed my tick-et for Suburban (Express) 20 minutes prior to departure and somehow along the way to the bus pick up site, I lost the ticket and I wasn’t allowed on the bus.” said Genesis Galva , freshman in DGS. “I was extremely upset because it was fi ve minutes until departure and there was no way that I was going to have time to print the ticket out again.”

Because sometimes students honestly forget their ticket on their desk or it slipped out of their bag when they were reach-ing for their sweater, it’s good to have a bus service that is lenient on the rule.

Cons:Rumors about not being safe or reliable

In April of last year , a vehicle sideswiped a LEX on Interstate 57. Rumors about thefts on LEX buses have also been talked about.

“LEX is simply a bus service that is just shady and unreli-able,” Velarde said. “I’ve heard too many stories regarding the malfunctions of this bus service.”

After a bad experience with LEX, Warren Thomas , freshman in Media, never wants to use the service again.

“I spent an hour on the side of I-57 because our bus driver didn’t know how to work our bus, and had to fl ag down a Suburban Express bus driver to show him how to fi x the problem,” Thom-as said. “I will never ride (with) them again.”

Students have also experi-enced their LEX bus arriv-ing late on multiple occasions, either to pick them up or to their expected destination.

“According to my roommate, the one time she took LEX, it came an hour and a half late,” said Joe Martinez, sophomore in Engineering.

Although many of the accusa-tions made about LEX haven’t exactly been proven, some stu-dents will refuse to use a service simply because of their friends’ reviews.

GreyhoundPrice Range: Tickets can be as

cheap as $2 if bought months in advance and if purchased online the day before, can be about $15 one-way to Chicago.

Pros: Cheap and has more options

With some planning, stu-dents can purchase Greyhound Express tickets for as low as $2. All it takes is buying your tickets far in advance and purchasing them online.

“I think it is very reasonably priced,” said Angela Jose , fresh-man in ACES. “It is not unsafe in my opinion. The only inconve-nience is that I have to take a bus from the Illinois Terminal.”

Another reason students opt for the Greyhound is because the Greyhound offers many time options, from early hours of the morning to late at night.

“(Greyhound is) easily accessi-ble. Plus, they are highly conve-nient and pose great service all around,” Velarde said.

Cons:Unsafe or “shady”

Because the Greyhound doesn’t pick up students direct-ly in front of their dorm and is located at the Illinois Terminal, and because the drop-off loca-tions in Chicago are sometimes known to be unsafe, some stu-dents avoid using the Greyhound service.

“I don’t feel unsafe just because I know the bus driv-er will help out, but there are always some ‘shady’ people,” said Melody Cruz , sophomore in LAS.

Melissa is a freshman in Media.

Mandell said. “Right now, we’ve purchased our truck, we’ve trade-marked our name and we’re incor-porated. We’ve also put a deposit down for the fi tting of the truck so we’re getting aluminum ceilings, diamond plated fl oors, an air con-ditioner unit, a sliding door, win-dow and WiFi.”

With their business plan down and a truck on its way, it’s only a matter of time before the busi-ness will be up and running on campus. Cracked plans on open-ing the week before classes, August 15 precisely, in order to get their name heard around cam-pus before school starts. Students will be able to fi nd the Cracked truck on the North Engineering

Quad and on Green Street.“Right now, the plan is to be at

a certain spot from 8 to 3 and then be in a different spot from 10 at night to 3 in the morning,” Krause said. “Then hopefully in a year or so, we could get a truck that’s doing more of a route and going to different places every time.”

Mandell and Krause are also looking into making food stops at various Champaign business-es and at the Illinois football games this upcoming fall. Plus, there’s also been talk about try-ing to reach out and cater for fra-ternity and sorority philanthro-py events. If the business does do well, expansion will defi nite-ly be something that Mandell and Krause will look into. They explained that their expansion role model is Chipotle.

“In terms of expanding, we

would like to be at every Big Ten campus,” Mandell said.

However, even if Cracked doesn’t end up being all it’s “cracked” up to be, both Mandell and Krause aren’t worried about what the future will hold for them.

“This is a make or break. If it works out, that’s great and it’s what we were aiming for and plan-ning on,” Mandell said. “And if it doesn’t, we’re still going to be 22 and have a place to sleep.”

Despite the obstacles they’ve already had and will continue to face, both believe that they can make the company work if they set their minds to it.

“There’s going to be a million things where you want to say this isn’t worth it but in all honesty, there’s always a solution,” Man-dell said. “If you want to make it work, you can.”

HALEY JONESSTAFF WRITER

To be a member of the Fighting Illini Tri-athlon team, you have to have guts. It is practically

required to be able to complete the feats of athleticism they do in a race.

This weekend the triathlon team is heading to Tuscaloosa, Ala., to com-pete in nationals and has high hopes to do well.

“We have a very big team com-pared to a lot of schools. It’s harder for us because of the weather. We can’t train outside all winter like some other schools,” said Brian O’Neill , president of the triathlon team.

Sophomore Jennifer Alter , captain of the team, is coordinating the travel

to nationals. “We are cramming into two 14-peo-

ple vans, and we are bringing a truck that has a trailer that has all of our bikes mounted on and heading down to Alabama,” she said.

Members of the team put in enough work to really shine at nationals. Coor-dinators for running, biking and swim-ming lead different workouts at their daily meetings, which aren’t mandato-ry. The schedule is fl exible, so members try to come whenever they can make it, and some even practice twice a day if they are very serious.

“We don’t have a coach, so no one holds it to you to attend practices. We will make fun of people and harass them, jokingly of course,” Alter said.

There are many different types of triathlons, such as sprint, super sprint,

Olympic, half Ironman and Ironman. Every type of triathlon begins with swimming, then biking, and running fi nishes up the race.

“We train all year for triathlons, but there are different levels like the Iron-man, which is a 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride and a 26.2-mile run. That takes about a year to train for. Then there are sprint triathlons, which take a month or two to train for,” O’Neill said.

At nationals, the team will be com-peting in an Olympic triathlon.

The club also holds their own triath-lon at the University called the Tri-the-Illini, which usually takes place in October.

For those who are new to the sport, the Fighting Illini Triathlon team is open to all different skill levels.

“We have a lot of people on the team

that haven’t done triathlons before and are going to be doing their fi rst one. These people begin working on basic swimming skills and they come to easy, social Friday runs,” said Bryan Conger , member of the club and sophomore in LAS. “On the other end of the spec-trum, we have some people who are really competitive that are going down to Nationals.”

O’Neill said that the biggest miscon-ception about triathlons is that they are impossible to do, which they tru-ly are not.

“It sounds a lot harder than it actu-ally is,” he said. “When people hear triathlon, they think of the Ironman, like the really hard ones, but there are really short ones which can be just a few miles for every discipline and are very easy to do.”

Get crackin’: Seniors aim to feed campus with food-truck businessBY TAYLOR ELLISSTAFF WRITER

There’s nothing worse than the morning rush to class when you wake up late. Between grab-bing books and rushing out the door, it’s easy to forget picking up something for breakfast on the way out. Thankfully, Jeremy Man-dell and Daniel Krause have come up with a solution to this problem with their food truck business, Cracked.

Mandell and Krause, both seniors in ACES, are friends from high school and have recently decided to become business part-

ners. With Mandell handling the business aspect and Krause with the restaurant experience, they will open the truck for business this August.

Krause came up with the con-cept of Cracked during a summer internship with Lettuce Entertain You, and after mentioning the idea to Mandell, they decided to take it to the next level.

“In the past six or seven months, I’ve been racking my brain as to how to turn this idea into some-thing more feasible that I could do after school,” Krause said. “So instead of creating a restaurant,

that I don’t have a half million dol-lars for, I decided that I wanted to do a food truck because it was something that was in my means, something that I could do now.”

Food trucks, which have become popular in cities such as Portland, are fortunately legal in Champaign. Because of a threat to restaurants, there are currently laws preventing the spread of food trucks in Chicago. However, on a college campus, there’s a demand for what food trucks can provide — quick, tasty and cheap food.

“We want to provide people with something they enjoy and some-

thing that’s heartfelt,” Krause said. “We don’t want people to feel like they got ripped off after buying it.”

For Mandell and Krause, the main goal of the business is to keep customers as happy as pos-sible. To do this, tax will be includ-ed in the price of each item and credit cards are an acceptable form of payment without having a minimum.

“I don’t want people to feel like we’re taking advantage of them and I don’t want students to think we’re trying to draw every cent that they have for a cup of coffee,”

Krause said. “I want people to feel like they’re at home, like they’re in their own kitchen.”

In terms of a menu, Mandell and Krause wanted to revolve it around breakfast sandwiches that can be acceptably eaten at any time of day. Also, they want-ed to keep the menu pretty sim-ple in order to reduce both food cost and food waste. Each sand-wich will consist of a baguette, fried egg, a type of meat such as bacon, chorizo, pastrami, or sala-mi, and some type of spread. The breakfast sandwiches will also come with a side such as tater

tots, sweet potato tots or maize. Plus, drinks such as coffee and tea will also be served and the menu is completed with home-made pastries.

When it comes to support for their new business, Mandell and Krause both have their parents standing behind them — which may come as a surprise to some. Mandell and Krause both have faith in themselves and are invest-ing everything they have into the company.

Illinois starting pitcher Josh Ferry knows maintain-ing confidence is most impor-tant for him on the mound.

Confidence is something Illinois head coach Dan Harlteb said nearly every young pitcher struggles with; even though Ferry has the pitches in his arsenal to compete, he’d pitched him-self into trouble this year. He came into the game with an ERA north of seven, with more walks (15) than strike-outs (14).

When Ferry took the mound Wednesday against Eastern Illinois, he knew his most important pitch was strike one. He stayed ahead of Pan-thers hitters all night long, leading Illinois to a 5-2 victo-ry over Eastern Illinois.

Ferry threw 70 pitches over seven innings, striking out six (both career-highs) improv-ing his personal record to 3-1 while only allowing two hits and walking none. He had 41 pitches in his last outing against Indiana, which lasted just two innings.

“He’s very competitive, so it really bothers him when he does not perform well,” Hart-leb said. “He works extreme-ly hard and it’s not easy to go out and perform as a fresh-man. There is a maturing pro-cess and this is big step in that process.”

Illinois was up 5-0 when Ferry came out of the game, but Hartleb made the decision to pull him in hopes of having an extra arm in the bullpen for the weekend. But Ferry kept the Panthers off balance all game, retiring the last 11 hitters he saw — he didn’t allow a hit after the second inning.

A long outing from a start-ing pitcher was exactly what the Illini bullpen needed after Tuesday night’s starter Reid Roper lasted just 1 1/3 innings.

Ferry primarily used his fastball to send hitters into a 0-1 hole right off the bat. From then on, freshman catcher Kelly Norris-Jones said he

In the floor exercise, gymnasts must not only showcase their tumbling abilities, but also design a routine that incorporates dance elements reflecting their unique personalities.

A lthough the main components of the routine are based off of the tumbling

passes, involving the judges in a routine can benefit a gymnast’s overall score.

“I think that all aspects of the routine are scored,” Illinois women’s gymnastics all-around Alina Weinstein said. “If you have really nice and engaging choreography, I think that the judges remember that and appreciate that because after all, this is an artistic sport.

“You really try and make your routine as aesthetically pleasing as possible and if you can accomplish that, then I think you’ll be rewarded for

Editor’s note: This is the last of a four-part series previewing the men’s gymnastics NCAA Champi-onships in Norman, Okla., on April 19 to 21.

It’s usually in the afternoon before daily practice, but it could also be in the morning before conditioning exercises. Or on the weekend when a gym-nast gets a sudden urge to prac-tice skills, or late at night when someone dash-es in to pick up a forgotten item. It doesn’t matter when or what the cir-cumstances are, but anytime members of the No. 4 Illinois men’s gymnas-tics team enter Kenney Gym, they bow their heads to the orange banner hanging in the middle of the gym that reads “1989 national champions.”

“It’s time for everyone to bow at a different banner,” senior Paul Ruggeri said. “One that reads: ‘2012 national champions.’”

The Illini have a shot to win their first NCAA title in 23 years this weekend at the Lloyd

Noble Center in Norman, Okla. Illinois boasts a deep roster

with the top ranking on high bar, the highest start values in the country and two U.S. Senior National Team members in Ruggeri and freshman C.J. Maestas — the Big Ten Fresh-man of the Year, Gymnast of the Year and all-around champion. Illinois defeated No. 1 Oklaho-ma and No. 2 Penn State earlier this season.

It also has the leadership of head coach Justin Spring,

Olympic bronze medalist and three-time Big Ten Coach of the Year.

The Illini have had their share of hardships, entering NCAAs fourth when at the beginning of the season they expected a No. 1 ranking. There were many mild injuries as the team was never

at a full strength, and stand-out senior Tyler Mizoguchi was released due to a team agree-ment midway through the season.

“I’ve been on teams ranked No. 1 all season and then we’ve choked at nationals,” Ruggeri

Thomas Pieters holds up a golf ball, on which he has drawn the Belgian flag using colored Sharpies. Pieters and his teammates were practicing at the Stone Creek Golf Club in Urbana on Wednesday.

Pitching leads Illini to 5-2 win over Panthers

4,252 miles — that’s the distance between Nijlen, Belgium, and Champaign.

That’s the distance that sophomore Thomas Pieters moved to play golf at Illinois.

Traveling one-sixth of the way around the world wasn’t the only obstacle for Piet-ers. He also had to adapt to a new culture, new food and a new language.

“When he first got here, he didn’t under-stand a lot of everyday language,” junior Mason Jacobs said of Pieters. “But now he understands it and uses it and talks just like all of us.

“We helped him adapt and tried to make it feel like a family,” Jacobs added.

It took Pieters’ golf game little time to adapt. He shot an even-par in his first col-legiate golf round, and placed second in this third collegiate tournament.

In October, Pieters won his first career tournament, the Jack Nicklaus Invitation-al. Pieters beat current No. 1 and No. 2 golfers in the nation — Dylan Fritelli and Jordan Spieth, both of Texas — for the title.

But Pieters hasn’t only added to the team through his low rounds.

“He’s played a lot of big tournaments overseas,” Jacobs said. “It helps that he has a variety of experiences and that he shares them with the team.”

Those experiences are becoming more common in the college golf world. An increasing number of international stu-dent-athletes are playing collegiate golf in the United States.

There were seven international golfers

representing three countries in the Big Ten when Illinois head coach Mike Small took over the program in 2000. Twelve seasons later, the conference currently has 20 international golfers represent-ing 17 countries.

Small said that the trend of recruiting international students started to pick up 10 or so years ago. Small has only recruit-ed three international players during his tenure at Illinois: Pieters and Canadians Matt Hoffman and James Lepp. Hoffman played at Illinois from 2006–10, while Lepp played for two seasons before trans-ferring to Washington and winning the individual NCAA championship in 2005. Pieters was Small’s first overseas recruit.

“I didn’t recruit an international player for a while,” Small said. “I wanted to be sure who I was getting. I wanted the right person with the right academic desires and goals, along with being good at golf.”

Small will add another international golfer next year. In November, Thomas Detry signed a National Letter of Intent to play at Illinois. The Nijlen, Belgium, native goes to the same high school, Sportschool Hasselt, that Pieters went to. Detry was the 2011 Belgium National Match Play Champion.

The 4,252 miles between his home and campus presented recruiting challenges. Pieters said that he and college coaches would email and talk on the phone, but Small went the extra mile.

“He made me feel at home,” Pieters

Back-to-back victories boost bullpen morale

said. “He made a lot of effort to make me comfortable. Coach would actually come and see me play whenever I was (in the U.S.).”

Unlike some coaches, Small has not yet travelled overseas to visit with recruits, but plans to do so in the future.

“The players come over here and play in tournaments and I go watch them,” Small said. “I use the Internet to research the players and emails to communicate (with them), and I also have contacts and friends who help make me aware of these international players.”

Illinois is not the only program to benefit from international recruits.

“A lot of the mid-majors and schools that couldn’t compete are playing better than they were fi ve to 10 years ago,” Small said.

“Kids follow rankings, so they

know the names, but they don’t know the schools,” he added.

Two-time defending NCAA champions Augusta State has benefi ted from the help of inter-national players. The program had two international golfers in its fi ve-man lineup in 2010, and three international golfers in 2011.

“International recruits don’t know the difference between an Augusta State and an Illinois or an Augusta State and a Texas,” Small said, referring to the top-ranked team in the nation.

International student-athletes have not only helped teams like Augusta State win national cham-pionships; they have also had suc-cess in the individual national championships as well.

Every individual national cham-pion from 1897 to 1997 was a native of the U.S. Since 1998, how-ever, there have been fi ve interna-tional NCAA champions, includ-ing the No. 1 golfer in the world, Luke Donald .

it.”The Illini ended the NCAA

regional competition on the fl oor. Weinstein’s performance followed Kelsey Joannides’ , Weinstein’s mentor, who suffered a fall to earn her second-lowest score this season (9.625). Before performing, Weinstein had no idea that a solid score would lead her to an all-around title and a trip to nationals.

“I wasn’t focused on that at all,” she said. “I was really just trying to do the best I could for my team so that we could have high scores in our lineups and so we could go to nationals as a team. I really had no idea that I did anything for myself at all. That’s the honest truth.”

Scoring a 9.875 on the fl oor placed Weinstein on top of the all-around podium. She also was placed in a four-way tie for fourth place on the event with Illinois sophomore Amber See , Oklahoma’s Sara Stone and Stanford’s Pauline Hanset . The scores on all four events totaled Weinstein’s career-high mark of 39.450 in the all-around competition.

“I was overwhelmed because I had made my team so happy

and I had accomplished that and that I had done something right,” Weinstein said. “It was obviously an honorable feeling to represent my team and my school in the best way that I could, but it was really bittersweet because my goal and my dream was to go with my team.

“I think that I am very inspired because I know what it takes to be able to get us there, so I really can’t wait to come back from nationals and start working for next year so we can all be there together.”

The fl oor exercise is not only an expression of the gymnast’s character but can incorporate the crowd into the routines. The chants and cheers from the Illinois gymnasts motivate Weinstein during her routine.

“To know that they are watching me and to know that they are cheering for me, that’s probably the best feeling ever,” Weinstein said. “I think I attribute my best memories to doing a good routine and then just screaming, clapping and running back and watching my teammates be proud of me.”

The environment will be different for Weinstein when she performs her fl oor routine at nationals without her teammates on the sidelines. Illinois head coach Kim Landrus is confi dent

that her performance will not change, even with the absence.

“It’s the same gymnastics .... She’s a competitor, and it’s such an honor for her to be able to go and represent the University of Illinois at NCAA nationals,” Landrus said. “I’m confi dent that she will go in there and do her gymnastics the way she always does and she’ll do a great job.”

At the NCAA Championships last year, Weinstein competed in the all-around competition. She posted a 9.850 on the fl oor exercise, tying her for eighth place and earning her second-team All-American honors. Landrus believes Weinstein’s previous success will help her compete at nationals alone this year.

“She was there last year, so she knows what to expect,” Landrus said. “She is very familiar with the gymnastics of the other teams across the country that will be represented. I think just knowing what she’s walking into will defi nitely help her.”

Weinstein’s career- and season-high on the fl oor exercise matches her beam career- and season-high scores at 9.9.

As she does with the vault, Weinstein sees her strengths developing from her power rather than precision. The height she gets while performing

diffi cult tumbling passes allows her to earn higher scores.

“I think that my height on my tumbling skills is defi nitely appreciated also,” the 5-foot-2 junior said. “So when you come down to looking at similar routines that did similarly, how are you going to distinguish them? I think that the height, maybe, is something that could work in my advantage.”

This season, Weinstein earned her fi rst-ever fl oor title against Arizona State, which is also where she set her new career-high score. Aside from all the accolades Weinstein has earned, she will always strive to improve her routines.

“I think that’s the challenge with gymnastics. There is always something that can be improved, there is always something that you can work on and it’s never perfect” she said.

“I think that that’s a feeling that I’m always searching for. I’m always looking for a way to make it perfect. It’s so precise that you can put your hand placement in one way and then you can throw yourself totally off.

“In a way, it is kind of like the back of my hand, just because I have been doing this for so long, but I think there are always little things that I can make better.”

was able to call whatever pitch in Ferry’s arsenal he wanted.

“When you get behind (in the count) you can’t do your game plan and it messes everything up,” Ferry said. “He got a lot of confi dence and he was just throw-

ing strikes.“In the past he’s just kind of

been a little wild. When he trusts his stuff and he has great stuff and can get anyone out with any pitch.”

Illinois’ pitching staff domi-nated Eastern Illinois in the two-game season series sweep, allow-ing fi ve runs in the two games combined. The Panthers have

struggled to plate runs this sea-son, and came into Wednesday’s game hitting .249 and averaging 4.9 runs a game.

The Illini have now won back-to-back games following their four-game losing streak, both of which came during the week. Mid-week games had been a problem for the Illini in the past, mainly because of pitching depth. Hart-

leb is hoping these wins can pro-duce another solid starter for the Illini, who have struggled behind starters Kevin Johnson and John Kravetz.

“Our guys came out with some fi re this week,” Hartleb said. “We made some adjustments and we were better in a lot of areas, so it’s good just getting back on our winning ways.”

said. “If anything, this humbles us and pushes us to do better.”

Illinois won its fourth-straight Big Ten title on April 6, but the happiness was short lived. The gymnasts wanted more.

“Our goal has been to win the NCAA title from the beginning of the season,” sophomore Jor-dan Valdez said.

The Illini’s main focus the last two weeks of practice has been to perfect every detail, so that they can hit 26-for-26 routines. Spring said he is con-fi dent the Illini will walk out with a fi rst-place fi nish if they do just that.

He said this team is different than anybody he’s seen before, including the Illini team his senior season, who narrowly took second place six years ago at the same venue.

He said the Illini want it more than anybody else and the cap-tains have been focused on ensuring no gymnast’s mental-ity falter.

“When I look at my team-mates, I know they have that fi re burning in their eyes the same way that I do,” Maestas said.

It will be a tough battle for the Illini, as they will see if they can live up to the high expectations.

“At this point, we are just itching to get to Norman,” Val-dez said. “We are ready to go and prove ourselves.”

Osei brings versatility to UI football’s offense

BY CHAD THORNBURGSTAFF WRITER

Throughout the spring, head football coach Tim Beckman has said depth is the biggest concern for the Illinois foot-ball team. The issue was even more apparent with the team split up dur-ing the annual Orange and Blue Spring Game.

“If you’re gonna be successful, you’ve got to have depth,” Beckman said. “You’ve got to have people that can step in if somebody gets injured.”

While the Illini are shallow at several positions, quarterback Miles Osei has proved to be a remedy for at least a few of them. In addition to quarterback, the junior has lined up at wide receiver and running back as well as returned kicks and punts this spring.

“It’s huge for us,” Beckman said of Osei’s versatility. “Those are the things that we’re gonna have to do. We’re gon-na put our players in the best positions where they can be successful. That’s the name of the game of football. I think Miles has taken that as a challenge.”

Osei, who played mostly quarterback

during his fi rst two years, said he’s will-ing to step up at any position.

“If quarterback is where they need me, that’s where I’ll play,” Osei said. “If it’s running back, that’s where I’ll play. If it’s wide receiver, that’s where I’ll play. ... I defi nitely feel comfortable. I feel comfortable on the fi eld, just going out there running plays, getting the ball in my hand, just having fun out there.”

Osei has seen limited action in his previous two seasons at Illinois and sophomore quarterback Reilly O’Toole said Osei is motivated to get on the fi eld, regardless of the position.

“He just wants to play; he’ll do what-ever it takes,” O’Toole said. “He’s been doing really well at running back and at quarterback. I’m sure if they told him to go somewhere else, he would do a great job. Right now, he’s just doing whatever coach is telling him and he’s doing a really good job at it.”

Junior quarterback Nathan Scheel-haase said Osei is one of his closest friends on the team, and having him on the fi eld is a welcome addition to the offense.

“It’s kind of like having two eyes back there,” Scheelhaase said. “He’s back there looking at a different part of the fi eld than I am. ‘Hey, watch the corner fi re,’ thinking corner blitz because he’s looking and the safety is off the hash,

and it’s nice to have somebody back there to help you out.”

Osei displayed his versatility during the Saturday’s spring game , lining up at running back and wide receiver as

well as completing 8-of-12 passes for 115 yards. He also fi elded kicks, though special teams were not live during the scrimmage.

“It was fun just jumping around play-

ing different position,” Osei said. “It helps out the offense a lot, it helps me out running the offense. I felt good about it. I felt real good about playing different positions.”

Illinois’ Miles Osei (16) carries the ball during the game against South Dakota State at Memorial Stadium. During the Sept. 10 game, Osei played quarterback and continued with that in his fi rst two years, but he said he’s willing to step up at any position.

ILLINI ATHLETES SOUND OFF

Can you do any fake accents?

What is something you’re bad at?

I do my teammate Elise’s (Gills) hair

every meet, so that’s been working so far.

Basketball. I don’t even know how to play

basketball.

I can’t think of anything.

Editor’s note: Every Thursday, the Daily Illini sports department will ask four Illinois student-athletes questions pertaining to life off the fi eld.Compiled by Johnathan Hettinger

I can try British sometimes.

I don’t know.

Being a team leader

My laugh

I was known for being fast. I was the fastest person in my school.

Do you have any pregame rituals?

“The Help”

No, I don’t.

I have to wear a bow in my hair. That’s about it.

I say a prayer before I run. I warm up and

stretch and make sure I get some good sprints,

but that’s pretty much it.

Tennis. It’s the only thing I’ve ever been

known for.

Well, I can do a Southern accent.

Parking and driving No

What were you known for in high school?

I’m really bad at being serious in situations where I’m actually

supposed to be.

“The Hunger Games.” It was really good. I still want to read the second one, but I haven’t gotten

around to it yet.

“The Hunger Games”

The last book I read was for one of my

classes. I don’t really have time to read.

What was the last book

you read?

Coyotes’ forward suspended for injuring Blackhawks’ Hossa BY RICK GANOTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO — The NHL suspend-ed Phoenix Coyotes forward Raffi Torres indefi nitely on Wednesday for knocking Chicago’s Marian Hossa out of the game — and may-be the playoffs — with a shoulder blow to the head.

Hossa won’t play in Game 4 on Thursday with the Coyotes lead-ing the series 2-1. He was at home resting, exchanging texts with his Blackhawks teammates less than 24 hours after he was carried off the ice on a stretcher and taken to a hospital.

The hard knock by Torres was the latest in a fi rst round that has been dominated by brawls and violent hits. The NHL scheduled a Friday hearing in New York for a player who has a reputation for big — and some say dirty — hits.

Depending on the locker room, the severity of the blow — one year after Torres did the same thing to Chicago’s Brent Seabrook while playing for Vancouver — differed and took the spotlight from a com-petitive fi rst-round matchup that has seen all three games go to overtime.

“I don’t think there was any malicious intent on Raffi ’s part,” he added. “He’s a hard hitter. That’s the way he plays the game. He turned, coming full speed, caught a guy right in the chest. Unfortu-nately, the player was injured.”

Torres’ skates were off the ice as he hit Hossa and sent Chica-go’s regular-season points leader crashing to the ice in the fi rst peri-od. Hossa had just passed the puck when he was hit.

“There’s only been one dirty hit in our series and you saw the same

thing from that guy last year in the same series,” Chicago’s Patrick Sharp said. “You know it’s coming. You try to warn your linemates and be aware when he’s on the ice. He’s got a history of target-ing guys’ heads and having ques-tionable hits. It makes it that much more frustrating to see it happen, but we got to rally behind Hoss.”

Chicago coach Joel Quenneville reiterated that the hit on Hossa was “brutal.” He said there was little change in Hossa’s condition with-out being specifi c, but said he was defi nitely out for Thursday’s game.

Asked if Hossa’s injury was long-term, Quenneville said: “We’ll see.”

Hossa went to a hospital for tests Tuesday night before he was tak-en home. A team doctor said a full recovery is expected but there is no timetable.

NAM Y. HUH THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Marian Hossa, of Slovakia, leaves the game after a hit from Raffi Torres during the fi rst period of Game 3 in Chicago. The Stanley Cup fi rst-round playoff game was held Tuesday.
