Splashy, the mascot for Carbondale’s planned Super Splash Park, welcomes attendees to a fundraiser concert Saturday at the Varsity Center for the Arts. Carter and Connelley, an area bluegrass band, performed to raise money for the water park that is set for construction at the Carbondale Super Block Sports Multi-Complex. The park is slated to open in May 2014, and its total building cost is $3.5 million. However, $625,000 must be raised before the city can receive a $2.5 million grant from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

Chancellor Rita Cheng and Provost John Nicklow cited administrative involvement as a key enrollment factor during an Administrative Professional Sta! Council meeting Wednesday.

"e council presented the Chancellor and Provost various administrative questions, and Cheng chose to address enrollment initiatives—

such as the scholarship day, which Cheng said was a success— and sta! involvement #rst.

“How can the council and the sta! further these initiatives? Stay positive,” Cheng said. “It’s hard work. It isn’t something that has positive outcomes right away. All the research shows it takes a while, and once you start that momentum it builds.”

University initiatives should seek to foster student improvement, Cheng said.

“I think there’s just a huge number of initiatives underway to increase enrollment,” Cheng said. “I would characterize that as we make sure that we recruit students who can be successful here, and then we do everything that we can to ensure their success.”

Nicklow said sta! members should consider participation in prospective student events such as the Jan. 12 Chancellor’s Scholarship visit day. Other initiatives include a high school junior,

sophomore, and freshman search to reach potential students earlier, he said.

“Enough of the freshmen (parents) in the high schools are saying, ‘Well, so-and-so university contacted my son or daughter as a freshman, and you’re not,’” he said. “"at’s (going to) stop. "e chancellor knows that I believe our future depends on enrollment. It’s the lifeblood of what we do.”

Mario Moccia announced Monday that Missy Tiber has resigned from her position as the women’s basketball coach.

Tiber, who has led the Salukis to a 4-12 record so far this season, #nished her four-year SIU run with an overall 19-86 record.

Adrianne Harlow will act as the team’s interim head coach for the rest of the season, according to a Saluki Athletics press release. Harlow has served as Tiber’s assistant for the past 12 seasons as she followed the coach from Belmont Abbey University to Tusculum College and finally SIU. Harlow will start immediately, Moccia said in the release, and expectations are at a new high.

“Missy inherited a struggling

program, and unfortunately, was unable to turn the tide,” he said. “I am confident that we can and will reverse the course of our women’s basketball program.”

Tiber has seen previous success at Belmont Abbey and Tusculum as she holds a 167-70 combined record from the two schools. However, she failed to lead the Salukis to a successful season or NCAA tournament in her four years, and the team hasn’t won more than 10 games in any season. Since 2011, Tiber has won #ve conference games and left SIU with an overall 9-50 Missouri Valley Conference record.

The team averages about 18 turnovers this year, which is something Tiber-led teams have labored with in the past. Offensive production has also been an issue this year, as the Salukis have been outscored 1205-990.

The Salukis just returned from a 89-41 loss to Illinois State during the weekend, but the team will tip off against Wichita State at 7 p.m. Friday at SIU Arena.

!e nation was honoring civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday — the same day it celebrated the inauguration of the *rst black president to his second term.

A quirk in the calendar pushed President Barack Obama’s public swearing-in in Washington onto the national holiday honoring the slain civil rights leader.

In Atlanta, an annual commemorative service was held at Ebenezer Baptist Church, where King preached. !e Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference was the keynote speaker, marking the *rst time a Latino leader served in the role.

Bernice King, the youngest daughter of the slain civil rights leader, also addressed the crowd. She stressed her father’s legacy of peace and nonviolence, describing how he calmed an armed, angry crowd when their home in Montgomery, Ala., was bombed. Her father stood on the porch and urged the crowd to *ght not with

guns but with Christian love, an act his daughter called “one of the bravest experiences of gun control that we’ve ever heard of in the history of our nation.”

In Washington, several dozen people took turns Monday morning taking pictures with the statue of King before heading to the National Mall, about a 15-minute walk away.

Nicole Hailey, 34, had driven with her family from Monroe, N.C., a six-hour trip that they started at midnight. Hailey attended Obama’s first inauguration four years ago and was carrying her Metro ticket from that day, a commemorative one with the president’s face printed on it. She said her family made a point of coming to the memorial before staking out a spot for the ceremony.

“It’s Martin Luther King’s special day,” she said. “We’re just celebrating freedom.”

Jon Barton, 61, and his wife Brooke Stephens, 59, of Roanoke, Va., had knocked on doors to get out

the vote for Obama. On Monday they, too, were at the memorial before heading to the mall.

“When you grew up in the ’60s, this means a lot,” Stephens said.

In Memphis, Tenn., some marked the day with a visit to the National Civil Rights Museum, built on the site of the old Lorraine Motel, where Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated April 4, 1968.

Wilbur Cole, a 52-year-old postman from Germantown, said the inauguration adds to the recognition of the King holiday, especially in Memphis. King and Obama, he said, “are the great men of this era.”

Joyce Oliver said she came to the museum Monday to enjoy a slice of history and that the inauguration sheds more light on the King holiday and his legacy.

“!is is the dream that Dr. King talked about in his speech,” Oliver said. “We see history in the making. !is is the second term for a black president. !is is something he spoke about, that all races come together as one.”

Nicklow recommended that sta! volunteer to teach University College classes, and Cheng asked council members to update their webpages.

“We’ve got dead links, (and) we’ve got wrong information,” Cheng said. “We’ve got con"icting information, (and) we’ve got three or four di!erent versions of the logo.”

Council members should also use SIU as the institution name rather than SIUC as university programs such as the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute and athletics programs do, she said.

“If we use SIUC in our emails or in our presentations to families, they don’t know what we’re talking about,” Cheng said. “#at’s like in-house speak.”

Don Castle, Student Center associate director, said administration professional sta! may desire

consultation on solutions and ideas.“I think our AP sta! would love

to be able to provide input, because there a lot of exciting changes going on,” Castle said.

Cheng said she hoped her strategic planning process would have provided the sta! that opportunity.

“We had so many AP sta! involved (in strategic planning), but it was the volunteers,” she said. “Maybe it was just the same old group.”

Kathy Jones, council chair, asked the chancellor whether the university Board of Trustees could pass student fees earlier to make the $nancial aid process more clear for prospective students.

Cheng said the BOT does not want to pass new student fees until it has a sense of the budget. #e university also doesn’t expect new state funding for years to come, if ever, she said.

“#e new normal that people talk about across the country is that the days of a lot of state appropriations for higher

education, and the ability of the federal government to step up the way they did in the past, is probably not going to happen,” she said.

#e university saw smaller 2009 and 2010 incoming classes, and major enrollment is down even with freshman enrollment uptick because the smaller classes have reached junior and senior status, Cheng said.

Total fall 2012 enrollment totaled 18,847 students, a dip from 19,817 in fall 2011. However, the university saw a 58-student — or 2.6 percent — $rst-time undergraduate student increase.

Cheng said enrollment is a complicated $gure, and factors include on- and o!-campus enrollment, undergraduate and graduate enrollment, and new student and transfer student enrollment. Growth is long-term, she said.

“We’re in this for the long haul,” Cheng said. “It’s not a sprint. It’s a marathon.”

Ryan McKennedy, second from right, an army veteran and a senior from Springfield studying psychology, plays a pick-up basketball game with Dontay Lawless, 12, second from left, and other club members Monday during Lunch with a Veteran at the Boys and Girls Club in Carbondale. Veterans, volunteers and club members spent time making cards and crafts to pack into two care packages for active military personnel overseas. Club member Malikia Tucker, 10, said the care packages were the most important part of the day. “It shows everyone serving for us overseas that people care for them,” she said. “We have to show our love and support.” Program director Tina Carpenter said she hoped the Martin Luther King Jr. Day event would help the young club members learn more about the people in their community. “They hear about themselves while they’re here, but we want them to be able to think outside of themselves, too,” she said. The SIU National Association of Black Journalists, SIU Center for Service-Learning and Volunteerism and Land of Lincoln AmeriCorps co-sponsored the event and joined the day’s activities.

NEW YORK — By today’s politically polarized standards, the Supreme Court’s momentous Roe v. Wade ruling was a landslide. By a 7-2 vote on Jan. 22, 1973, the justices established a nationwide right to abortion.

Forty years and roughly 55 million abortions later, however, the ruling’s legacy is the opposite of consensus. Abortion ranks as one of the most intractably divisive issues in America and is likely to remain so as rival camps of true believers see little space for common ground.

Unfolding events in two states illustrate the divide’s depth. In New York, already a bastion of liberal abortion laws, Gov. Andrew Cuomo pledged in his Jan. 9 State of the State speech to entrench those rights even more $rmly. In Mississippi, where many anti-abortion laws have been enacted in recent years, the lone remaining abortion clinic is on the verge of closure because nearby hospitals won’t grant obligatory admitting privileges to its doctors.

“Unlike a lot of other issues in the culture wars, this is the one in which both sides really regard themselves as civil rights activists, trying to expand the frontiers of human freedom,” said Jon Shields, a professor of government at Claremont McKenna College. “#at’s a recipe for permanent con"ict.”

On another hot-button social issue — same-sex marriage — there’s been a strong trend of increasing support in recent years, encompassing nearly all major demographic categories.

#ere’s been no such dramatic shift, in either direction, on abortion.

For example, a new Pew Research Center poll $nds 63 percent of U.S. adults opposed to overturning Roe, compared to 60 percent in 1992. #e latest Gallup poll on the topic shows 52 percent of Americans saying abortion should be legal under certain circumstances, 25 percent wanting it

legal in all cases and 20 percent wanting it outlawed in all cases — roughly the same breakdown as in the 1970s.

“#ere’s a large share of Americans for whom this is not a black-and-white issue,” said Michael Dimock, the Pew center’s director. “#e circumstances matter to them.”

Indeed, many con"icted respondents tell pollsters they support the right to legal abortion while considering it morally wrong. And a 2011 survey of 3,000 adults by the Public Religion Research Institute found many who classi$ed themselves as both “pro-life” and “pro-choice.”

Shields, like many scholars of the abortion debate, doubts a victor will emerge anytime soon.

“#ere are reasonable arguments on both sides, making rationally defensible moral claims,” he said.

Nonetheless , the rival legions of activists and advocacy groups on the front lines of the con"ict each claim momentum is on their side as they convene symposiums and organize rallies to commemorate the Roe anniversary.

Supporters of legal access to abortion were relieved by the victory of their ally, President Barack Obama, over anti-abortion Republican Mitt Romney in November.

A key reason for the relief related to the Supreme Court, whose nine justices are believed to divide 5-4 in favor of a broad right to abortion. Romney, if elected, might have been able to appoint conservative justices who could help overturn Roe v. Wade, but Obama’s victory makes that unlikely at least for the next four years.

Abortion-rights groups also were heartened by a backlash to certain anti-abortion initiatives and rhetoric that they viewed as extreme.

“Until politicians feel there’s a price to pay for voting against women, they will continue to do it,” said Cecile Richards, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, a lightning rod for conservative attacks because it’s the leading abortion provider in the U.S.

McKenna College

Mark Wahlberg has come a long way since the world associated him with the Funky Bunch. He starred in “!e Departed” and “!e Fighter,” but he has also led some stinkers such as “Planet of the Apes” and “Max Payne.”

“Broken City,” Wahlberg’s new "lm, features Marky Mark as an ex-police o#cer turned private investigator. !e story revolves around an upcoming New York mayoral election in which his character Billy Taggart plays a devious role. !e story is a politically driven commentary on our democratic society, but does the movie spend too much time on statements rather than quality?

Austin Flynn: Director Allen Hughes wanted to say something about what happens with backhanded politicians, and the message is loud and clear. However, it didn’t make for an interesting or even coherent storyline. I understand Russell Crowe was a corrupt politician who used unconventional get-out-the-vote strategies, but I didn’t really care. I never rooted for Wahlberg or against Crowe because the plot and characters didn’t grab my attention, which is a shame because I really enjoy the cast.

Karsten Burgstahler: Wahlberg never grabbed my attention, but I

have to disagree about Crowe. His performance is over-the-top and frankly not that great, but he clearly relishes the evil role. Crowe’s and Catherine Zeta-Jones’ back-and-forth dialogue is snappy, but viewers sadly don’t get enough. We have Barry Pepper as Crowe’s mayoral opponent, Jack Valliant (ha ha, get it?), which is a somewhat awkward performance. Je$rey Wright seems to have fun as well, but he certainly has too little screen time. !en there’s the dialogue. Valliant takes a higher taxes speech directly out of President Obama’s mouth. If you’re going to quote the president, at least give him some credit. No matter your political a#liations, the thinly-veiled allegories don’t exactly create a fun Friday night at the movies. As the plot attempts political statements, it delivers plot twists so convoluted viewers will feel the movie is intentionally punching them in the face.

AF: !ere is also a cheap attempt to give Wahlberg a complicated past as the stereotypical alcoholic who quit the sauce for a girl, but it spirals when his girlfriend calls it quits. !e movie then takes a bizarre turn with a

montage scene that depicts Wahlberg drinking and stumbling around New York and "ghting strangers. !is scene halts the movie and left me wondering what I was watching. !e "lm’s remainder tries to build suspense and mystery but only convolutes itself even more. “Broken City” had potential with a fairly strong cast, but it is too politically focused and fails to create a clear story. !is de"nitely isn’t Wahlberg’s "nest "lm, but who knows? Maybe the new Transformers movie will redeem him. I won’t hold my breath, though.

KB: Wahlberg’s career is a roller coaster, but I’ll give him a pass here because the "lm had potential. Maybe a di$erent writer could have created a more concise thriller. Plot holes plague the "lm. How does no one recognize Wahlberg after his character’s major police scandal? Why is Wahlberg left to wallow in his alcoholism? “Broken City” is proof that no matter how many stars are casted to deliver a subpar dialogue, they can’t save a crummy script and complex plot twists. No matter how many repairmen are brought in, “Broken City” can’t be "xed.

Molly Gabel, a junior from De Soto studying recreation, climbs a route Sunday in Jackson Falls. Jackson Falls is a recreation area in Shawnee National Forest known for its hiking trails and rock climbing routes. Gabel and other SIU climbing club members are preparing for their spring break trip in March, so even in the brisk winter weather club members can be found at Jackson Falls. “It felt good to get on some rock that had soaked up some sunshine,” Gabel said. “The previous routes of the day were hidden in shadows which made it more difficult because your fingers go numb from the cold rock.”

!e men’s "eld team also executed a dominant performance during the weekend. Freshman standout Josh Freeman proved he could keep pace with upperclassmen teammates as he notched a winning 18.19-meter shot put throw.

Sophomore thrower Bradley Sauer claimed the "rst-place "nish for the men’s weight toss. Sauer, who has previously competed for the Salukis in the NCAA outdoor track regionals, posted a

“I try to do my part and give us a spark,” he said. “We can come out like that anytime we want, but somehow we didn’t do that tonight.”

Brown-Surles didn’t dish any assists in Sunday’s game and has averaged 2.4 assists per contest this season. He said the o#ense has been sluggish lately, and it was a challenge to score early in the game without the team’s two leading scorers.

“Our two key players got into foul trouble, and it was hard to replace them,” he said. “We have to "nd a way to change things up.”

Hinson said his players played poorly for most of the game because they were hesitant.

“!ere was a lack of con"dence to pass or to move or to cut,” he said. “You hold onto it because you’re indecisive.”

!e Salukis regained their composure

after halftime, raced to a 23-6 scoring run and smothered ISU with a zone press as they forced eight turnovers in the second half.

Hinson said he gave a simplistic speech to his team during halftime.

“I told our guys about the time when I was down 26 and came back to win the game,” he said. “I told them that if we could get the score down to 14 with 10 minutes remaining that we could win the game.”

SIU lessened the gap to 55-44 on freshman guard Anthony Beane Jr.’s layup with 10 minutes left, but the Redbird’s Kaza Keane hit a 3-point bomb to end the Saluki charge.

“I’m not beating these kids up. !e kids in the second half played their hearts out,” Hinson said.

!e team will compete Wednesday against Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, IA.

Post trouble and poor shooting caused the Salukis to fall 89-41 during Saturday’s game against Illinois State.

!e 89 points marked a season-high in points for the Redbirds (12-6, 4-2 Missouri Valley Conference), and the margin was SIU’s worst loss against a conference opponent since the ‘03-‘04 season. It is also the team’s worst loss in an away game this season.

SIU (4-12, 1-4 MVC) scored the game’s "rst two baskets but found little

success after the Redbirds went on a 34-6 run and outscored the Salukis 45-18 in the "rst half.

“I think they got shell-shocked once (ISU) went on that 20-0 run,” Harlow said. “!ey knocked us down with that blow, and we didn’t get back up and do anything about it. !at part was disappointing.”

!e second half played about the same as the "rst as ISU outscored the Salukis 44-23, and the Salukis were held to just over 25 percent shooting on the night.

Sophomore guard Cartaesha Macklin, SIU’s leading scorer on the season, was

held to just 1-13 shooting during the game and ended the night with just 2 points. !is stopped her six-game double-digit scoring streak. Redshirt freshman forward Azia Washington was the Salukis’ leading scorer of the night with 9 points, and no SIU player scored above double-digit "gures during the game.

“We just couldn’t "nd the basket,” Harlow said. “Even wide open layups, we had them and they rolled out. It was just one of those nights where nothing went our way.”

Five Redbird players ended the night with at least 10 points, including senior

guard Candace Sykes, who led all scorers with 19 points. Redbird forward Janae Smith added 13 points, nine rebounds and three steals on the night.

Post defense has proven to be an SIU di$culty this season. Opponents have outrebounded the Salukis 140-85 over their three-road-game losing streak. !e Salukis have also given up an average 30.6 points in the paint over the same stretch.

SIU has lost every game that has seen more than 1,000 attendees, according to the Saluki Athletics website, including their 110-47 loss Dec. 16 to Mizzou

when 1,280 fans attended.!e loss makes SIU 4-12 on the

season and 1-4 in conference play. !e only team ranked worse against MVC opponents is Drake (5-11, 0-5).

!e road will not get easier for the Salukis, as they face conference-leading Wichita State (10-6, 4-0) Friday at SIU Arena. !is will be the Salukis’ "rst home game since their Jan. 5 77-70 win against Drake.

Junior guard Diamond Taylor attempts a layup Sunday as the Salukis face Illinois State University at SIU Arena. Sunday’s game was the first time Taylor has played since coach Barry Hinson reinstated him to the team after an indefinite suspension before the season. The Salukis trailed by 26 points as they headed into the second half. After a 23-6 leading run, the Salukis’ second-half surge lost momentum as the Redbirds held on for a 70-56 win. SIU will travel to Northern Iowa University Wednesday to take on the Panthers at the McLeod Center.

With four top !nishes and several notable performances, the Saluki !eld team took second place during the weekend’s Illini Classic in Champaign.

"e Southern Illinois men’s basketball team lost to Illinois State 70-56 Sunday night and gave the Redbirds their !rst Missouri Valley Conference season win in the SIU Arena.

"e Salukis (8-10, 1-6) faced early foul trouble from junior guard Desmar Jackson and sophomore forward Dantiel Daniels. Illinois State (10-9, 1-6) took advantage of SIU’s struggled start as the team connected seven 3-pointers and outrebounded SIU by 12 boards at halftime.

“I’ve been saying this for the last three weeks — "ese guys are at any moment going to come out of their slump and cause people some issues,” SIU coach Barry Hinson said. “Dan (Muller) was smart, he kept pounding it (inside). “We kept sinking in (defensively), and when we’d sink, Tyler would hit the shot. Choose your poison.”

Senior guard Je# Early paced the Salukis with 16 points and was one rebound away from a team-high seventh double-double of the season. Early also added two steals, a block and four o#ensive rebounds against 6-foot-9 senior forwards John Wilkins and Jackie Carmichael.

ISU head coach Dan Muller said his team needed a conference win, but Early proved to be as good as advertised.

“Je# Early is about as competitive as you get in this league,” Muller said. “At his size, the production he’s getting is awfully impressive. "e truth is, they’re not very big. Barry’s working with a short hand a little bit with size.

Early said despite the tough loss, the team will continue to play hard midway through conference schedule.

“We got in a big hole early, and we battled back. We cost ourselves the game in the !rst half,” he said. “"is game won’t a#ect us too much because we’re already trying to !gure out how to beat Northern Iowa.”

Fellow senior guard Kendall Brown-Surles shot more than 50 percent from the !eld and connected on three of his !ve 3-point !eld goals. "e Saluki senior scored 13 points and accounted for three steals, but he turned the ball over four times. Brown-Surles hit two clutch 3-pointers on back-to-back possessions to give the Salukis a much-needed o#ensive lift.
