1 | DERON WILLIAMS Point guard of the Brooklyn Nets , men’s basketball

1 | FOR THE RECORDWomen’s basketball positively crushed Alcorn State 112-28 on Nov. 17, breaking the school record for largest margin of victory.

7 | COMEBACK KIDSIllinois women’s basketball came from 20 points down to beat Seton Hall on Dec. 9, for one of the biggest comebacks in pro-gram history.

2 | COMEBACK PLAYER OF THE YEAR Jannelle Flaws was named Big Ten Forward of the Year after a knee injury sidelined her for the entire 2012 season. The Illinois soccer team made it to the Sweet 16.

8 | SETTING THE PACECross-country runner Jannis Toepfer qualifi ed for the NCAA Championships after fi nishing third at NCAA Regionals, the highest fi nish for an Illini since 2007.

3 | LATE SURGE INTO THE TOURNEYVolleyball won six matches in a row to climb back into the rankings when it mattered at the end of the season, beating No. 17 Michigan, No. 13 Michigan State and No. 18 Purdue along the way.

9 | THE SWEET LIFEBy beating Morehead State and No. 22 Marquette handily, volleyball returned to the Sweet 16 after being shut out of the NCAA tournament in 2012.

6 | The Illini crowd against Northwestern on Nov. 30

Only 37,058 fans came out to watch two of the worst teams in the Big Ten in the season fi nale. The half-empty Memorial Stadium watched the Illini lose for the eighth time in 2013. Block I gave its best shot at halftime card stunts, despite having only about 150 members present.

5 | Interception — nope! Michigan State touchdown on Oct. 26

Illinois was down 7-3 with seconds remaining before halftime. Spar-tans quarterback Connor Cook threw the ball up for grabs and two Illini, Jaylen Dunlap and Eaton Spence, both had a chance to inter-cept the ball. It bounced off both of their hands and landed in the lap of Spartans receiver Bennie Fowler, who was waiting in the end zone, for a touchdown.

4 | Ryan Lankford dislocates shoulder against Michigan State

The play was a reverse gone horribly wrong. Not only was Lankford lost for the season after being hit by a Michigan State defensive lineman, which ended his Illini career, but the Spartans also recovered the fumble and went on to score its fi rst points in a 42-3 blowout of the Illini.

1 | Punter Justin DuVernois’ pass attempt on a fake punt against Indiana on Nov. 9

Illinois trailed Indiana by seven and had been trading punches with the Hoosiers all day long when head coach Tim Beckman called a fake punt with 11 minutes to play. DuVernois threw the ball, for all intents and purposes, directly into the ground. The Hoosiers scored two plays later and never looked back. The Illini watched their bowl hopes go from meager to microscopic.

2 | Scheelhaase’s interception in overtime against Penn State on Nov. 2

Illinois had battled so hard to try to end its long conference losing streak with a win over the Nittany Lions. When Penn State scored fi rst in overtime, Scheelhaase promptly threw an interception on Illinois’ fi rst play of the extra period, losing the game.

3 | Reilly O’Toole’s fumble in the end zone vs. Ohio State on Nov. 16

The Illini had rallied from a 28-point defi cit to pull within 12 of the Buck-eyes. When Nathan Scheelhaase’s helmet came off, forcing him to sit out a play, backup quarterback Reil-ly O’Toole came in and fumbled in the end zone for a safety — his only appearance of the game. Beckman and offensive coordinator Bill Cubit followed it up with a verbal argument on the sideline.

4 | DEFENDING CHAMPION’S STRONG STARTWhen wrestling traveled to New York for the Journeyman Duals in late November, reigning national champion Jesse Delgado defeated No. 2 Nahshon Garrett and was named Outstanding Wrestler of the Meet.

10 | ILLINI ATHLETE OF THE YEAR? Paralympian Tatyana McFadden became the fi rst person to win four major marathons in one year, making her one of Illi-nois’ biggest success stories in recent years.

5 | THE FLU MATCH Even with the fl u, Melissa Kopinski and the team went 5-1 at the fi rst home tennis tournament of the year, leading the Illini to the best overall record at the tournament.

6 | UP-AND-COMING STARFreshman golfer Stephanie Miller was named Big Ten Golfer of the Week in mid-October after becoming the fi rst University freshman to win a tournament outright since 1992.

2 | ASHLEY SPENCER Sprinter at University of Texas at Austin , women’s track

3 | STEVE STRICKER PGA golfer (No. 8 in the world), men’s golf

9 | COLLEEN WARD Volleyball

4 | COREY LIUGET

Defensive end of the San Diego Chargers , football

5 | JUSTIN SPRING Men’s gymnastics head coach , men’s gymnastics

6 | KEVIN ANDERSON Professional tennis player , men’s tennis

7 | ANDREW RILEY Sprinter of Jamaica , men’s track

8 | KARISMA PENN Forward of Cavigal Nice Basket 06 in Ligue Féminine de Basketball, women’s basketball

Everyone knows the ins and outs of football and men’s bas-ketball, but Illinois is home to scores of talented athletes that deserve a little more credit.

1 | The cafeteria food isn’t always the best.

University dining charges about twice as much Chipotle and tastes about twice as worse.

2 | Some new friendships will grow, while others will fade.

Chances are the friends you met on the first week of school are not the friends you’ll carry throughout college. Still, good friendships here are as important as grades and way more impor-tant than finding your future wife or husband.

3 | Eighty-!ve percent of the time, you won’t touch your textbook.

4 | Odds are internships won’t happen for you this summer, but be a master of your own destiny.

Strive for it, but chances are freshmen won’t get a callback for a summer internship. It’s just the way it is. Be relieved — you’ve got a lot of things at your disposal to make it a memorable summer. Don’t waste a summer working your old Target job that paid $8.25 an hour. Travel and see the world now because as you get older, you’ll have burdens and responsibilities anchor-ing you down.

5 | Keep in touch with the ’rents.Call your parents every once in a while. They

want to know you haven’t fallen off the face of the earth while at college. Cherish them, and be happy that you have people in your life that care about you while you’re at a place where sincer-ity can be scarce.

6 | The real learning happens one-on-one.

Office hours with your professors is where col-lege really happens. Plus, you never know what doors they can open for you in the future.

7 | Don’t let college turn into high school.Friends from home are great, but don’t keep

them glued to your side just to talk about the same old little town blues. Talk about ideas, not people. Who you were in high school means noth-ing. You’re free to be whoever you want to be. Let bygones be bygones and don’t revel in the past.

8 | Become a likeable human being. Cultivate a personality. Invest in becoming

a great human being. Internalize some of your experiences just for yourself and till a rich gar-den of quirks, innovation and compassion. Four years from now when it’s all said and done, peo-ple won’t care nearly as much about your hon-ors and accomplishments as they do about your character and interpersonal skills.

9 | Practice your passion. Learn what you love and, as Mark Twain once

said, “Don’t let school get in the way of your

education.” Have a fire in your belly and dream big; you’re at one of the best places in the world to make “big” happen. If you don’t know what you’re passionate about, there are thousands of classes and clubs that will help you figure that out. And it’s more than OK to sometimes put aside homework to try to master what you love. If you already know what your passion is, don’t let anyone stop you.

10 | To some professors, you’ll only be just another face they won’t remember.

Appreciate the ones who actually care about you and the subject that they’re teaching.

11 | Camaraderie in the classroom hardly exists.

As much as you want to have those buddies you had in high school that you could tell jokes to and outwit the teacher with, it’s likely that you won’t get that in an auditorium of 200 students.

12 | Opportunities are not going to jump out at you to let you know they exist.

Be proactive. Collect business cards, send emails, attend career fairs and try not to burn any bridges.

13 | Pack those ugly Christmas sweaters, Hawaiian shirts, neon bracelets and Eskimo hats.

They’re hot commodities here. And so is two-ply toilet paper.

14 | Don’t do things just to !ll up the empty space on your resume.

We’re not in high school anymore, where we would try to exaggerate our way through the door. Join clubs because you’re passionate about them.

15 | Proofread.

16 | You will learn a lot outside the classroom through the people you meet.

Surround yourself with quirky, ambitious kids with sharp tongues and a hunger to see the world. Chances are, you won’t be the smartest, most charismatic or creative kid in most rooms. Over the next four years, you’re going to be challenged in ways you can’t imagine, across all fronts. Have an open mind. Question, observe and learn from them. And remember, if you’re the smartest per-son in the room, you’re in the wrong room.

17 | Take lots of pictures, but let the moments sink in.

Don’t just remember life through a camera. Make it so that 10 years from now, these things will be engraved in your memory, not just a mem-ory stick. Let songs attach themselves to memo-ries as well.

18 | Invest in shower shoes.

19 | Have fun, but remember to hit the books.

Make your time here worthwhile, but if at the

end of the day all you’ve got to show for your thou-sands of dollars of debt is the ability to shotgun a beer in five seconds, the future won’t be a fun place for you.

20 | All-nighters suck. They’re not fun, and you don’t want to be put

in the position to have to pull one. You need sleep, so manage your time and motivate yourself to do work to get some. As busy as you think you may be during the day, lying around watching re-runs of “The Office” for three consecutive hours and scrolling through Facebook’s Best Vines page for another hour isn’t helping you out.

21 | Don’t take failures lying down.You can study all day and night and still fail a

test. Life will throw you curveballs. You have to be ready to hit them. Refusing to get out of bed because of that test you bombed or that assign-ment you missed is one of the worst things you can do. The world is happening outside, whether you’re playing or not.

Try following the words of Samuel Beckett: “Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better.”

22 | You have state-of-the-art resources at your disposal.

You might never have access to these resourc-es again, but right now you have them at your fingertips, so take advantage of the opportuni-ty. This is likely the only time in your life when all you have to do is learn. You’re lucky to be at such a great institution and have access to more free stuff than you will ever have again. You have more opportunities to get involved than you could ever give your time to and more incred-ible people to meet than you could ever get to know. Milk it for all it’s worth. Don’t blow your time playing “Grand Theft Auto V” or lying on your bed scrolling through your phone for hours.

23 | Chambana can sometimes feel like a bubble.

It’s easy to get caught up on what’s happening on campus that you’ll forget that there is a big-ger world out there.

24 | Watch cartoons sometimes.

25 | Learn to be alone. Sometimes, college can be a lonely game, and

you’ll realize that this time alone will be some of the most character-building moments of your life. It’s OK to be alone. You’ll learn a lot about your-self and who you are. Embrace these moments.

26 | You know yourself better than anyone else.

If you do your best work the night before some-thing is due, don’t let people tell you that “you’re doing it wrong.” You know yourself well enough to know what study methods work best for you and which ones don’t. You got here for a reason. If that’s what works for you, then by all means, keep on keepin’ on.

The state legislature passed the same-sex mar-riage bill on Nov. 5. Gov. Pat Quin then signed the bill, making Illinois the 16th state to allow a man to marry a man and a woman to marry a woman.

On Dec. 3, the state passed legislation to reform the pension crisis. The state’s budget crisis is no secret, which is why the legislature’s pas-sage of a pension reform bill made headlines statewide. The changes will directly affect University employees by capping the amount of salary on which a pension benefit is based. University administration was not pleased with the bill’s passing.

On Oct. 9, one student, Mimi Liu, was killed and another injured when Willie Craft Sr.’s vehicle struck them as they were walking down Lincoln Avenue.

After a significant drop in the number of faculty in recent years, administrators announced their plans for future hiring. At a university the size of this one, it can be hard to conceptualize the hiring processes and objectives.

Yongfei Ci was charged with one count of first-degree murder, one count of home invasion and one count of aggravated kidnapping in the Sept. 27 murder of his ex-girlfriend.

Ten-day enrollment numbers showed that the University was hosting its second-largest freshman class and had its largest enrollment ever. By examining these numbers one can put the size of the University in perspective.

The University Board of Trustees voted to dismiss tenured Engineering professor Louis Wozniak on Nov. 14. Wozniak had been teaching at the University since 1966 and was suspended twice. The decision to dismiss a tenured professor is

unprecedented and was done for concern over “student safety.”

The government shutdown from Oct. 1-16 effectively stalled much of the federal functions across the country. Many state employees and other citizens were frustrated with lawmakers’ inability to come to an agreement sooner.

University senior Tatyana McFadden won the New York Marathon women’s wheelchair division on Nov. 3, earning her the grand slam of the Boston, London, Chicago and New York marathons in the same year.

Most citizens won’t ever know what it is like to be in the Army, but a Daily Illini two-part series took us inside one weekend at a ROTC training site in Indiana.

After storms ripped through Washington and Gifford, Ill., on Nov. 17, the community has seen an outpouring of support. Many are still without homes in Washington, yet they are preparing for the holidays — trying to be as normal as they can without their home or part of their community.

Before the Illinois Student Senate, students petitioned to add a female statue next to “Grainger Bob” to better represent women engineers at one of the top Engineering schools in the country. Women have always been less common in science, technology, engineering and math, so the statue would serve as a reminder that we’ve got plenty to go before we achieve equality.

The Illinois Student Senate may have been in violation of the Open Meetings Act, an Illinois state law that requires meetings among public officials to be in the public domain. Some ISS members took part in an closed Facebook group, drawing criticism from members of the student senate.

The conflict in Syria attracted international attention as refugees fled and political powers clashed. International issues, despite them taking place far from the U.S. sometimes, affect people on campus. Some students are from Syria or have family that were affected by the bloody conflict.

1 | Write your paper’s title page and bibliography fi rst, then feel accomplished that at least one page is done. Reward yourself with a false sense of hope and at least 30 minutes of Netfl ix.

2 | Stare blankly out the window at the library, and eavesdrop on other people’s conversations. Silently begin to root on Michelle and her boyfriend troubles with Jim instead of starting your English paper.

3 | Log on to Compass to check your math grade, then let your fi ngers type in the web address for Facebook. Oops.

4 | Once on Facebook, proceed to creep your cousin’s best friend’s sister’s boyfriend. Feel bad about your life as you browse through his “Vacation to Hawaii” photo album. He looks beautiful and tan. You are ugly and pale in the library studying chemistry.

5 | Calculate the lowest grade you need to receive on your fi nal to get the grade you want in the class, neglecting to actually study for said fi nal.

6 | Go through all the “related videos” on YouTube. End up crying on the fl oor watching wedding proposal videos.

7 | EAT. Eat even though you aren’t in the slightest bit hungry. Tell yourself that you will workout later. It probably won’t happen.

8 | Decide to write a book, and begin the fi rst chapter. “I’ve always wanted to do this,” you say to your friends.

9 | Clean your room from top to bottom because at least now it appears that you have your life together.

10 | Build yourself up with motivational quotes on Pinterest that do not in any way apply to your life.

11 | Spend more time scheduling your study time than actually studying.

12 | Memorize the entire “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” theme song, and rap it to your friends.

13 | In the midst of writing a paper, randomly think about life decisions and doubt your major for the billionth time. Get caught up in this important thinking and put off the paper until tomorrow.

14 | Do impromptu cartwheels down the hall because you feel like it. Pretend you don’t see them staring.

15 | Delete every social media app from your phone in an effort to focus.

Experience withdrawals, and promptly re-download everything, wasting more time than you saved.

16 | Snapchat an ugly close-up of you, quote: “struggling through fi nals” to your friends. Continue to struggle even harder because you are now even more distracted by incoming Snapchats from commiserating friends.

17 | Share this list with everyone you know. Homework can wait.

Every student is familiar with the trade-mark buildings of our campus, the very same ones we were amazed by as high school seniors on a University tour.

But here are buildings on campus that you’ve probably never stepped foot into and will reignite your passion for this campus, even in the dead of fi nals.

1 | SMITH MEMORIAL HALL THEATER

The former home of the School of Music in the 1920s, Smith Memorial Hall and its 830-seat theater are now masked by the infamous University construction curse on the exteri-or. But the rich woodwork still resembles the renowned theaters of its time.

2 | MATHEMATICS LIBRARY AT ALTGELD HALL

Sitting inside the entrance of Altgeld, near the podium of where the Alma Mater used to stand, the Mathematics Library is known for the striking murals that line the walls of the inside.

3 | TEMPLE HOYNE BUELL HALLBy far one of the most interesting buildings on campus, and rightly so as it plays host to the Architecture School, TempleHoyne Buell Hall has some “Inception”-style staircases.

4 | STOCK PAVILIONThe Stock Pavilion, which borders the quad to the South, was once home to the stock judg-ing competitions. But now, rich with its aro-ma of livestock, it plays host to a variety of events and groups including Belegarth, the University’s registered student organization for Medieval combat.

5 | BUSINESS INSTRUCTIONAL FACILITY

Well-known by business majors across cam-pus, the Business Instructional Facility’s inte-rior is rich with woodwork as well as students. Resembling a new age offi ce building, BIF has plenty to prepare its students, including an Espresso Royale.

6 | NATURAL RESOURCES BUILDING

The Natural Resources Building, which plays host the Illinois State Geological Survey and the Illinois Natural History Survey, is by far one of the creepier buildings on campus. Through the Natural History Survey wing, the Museum of Natural History Amphibian and Reptile Collection can be found. With over 100,000 dead animals in jars, it resembles Pro-fessor Snape’s offi ce.

7 | HARKER HALLOnce the home the Chemistry and Law pro-grams, the quaint building that is located next to the Illini Union is Harker Hall, not an old haunted mansion. The building now plays host to the University of Illinois Foundation.
