While many SIU students go home for sum-mer, a group of anthropology students prepare for a hands-on class that features the digging of land where a large group of Native Americans once lived.

! e class, titled “Field Methods in Archaeol-ogy,” will teach students the ins and outs of exca-vation, a process of carefully digging up artifacts in the ground and determining their relevance in accordance to the Native Americans that once lived there. ! e class, which starts Monday, will station students at the Kincaid Mounds in Brookport, a location owned by the Illinois Pres-ervation Society.

! is stretch of land was once home to a large group of Native Americans and many homes and other objects have been discovered in past # eld schools. ! e site has been researched by SIUC students since 2005 and was also excavated by the University of Chicago in the 1930’s.

! e goal is also to prepare students for life as an archaeologist and give them the skills and # eld experience needed to land a job in archae-ology. Both sessions consist of a four week time period where the students live near the site and

dig everyday.Paul Welch, # eld school director and associate

professor of anthropology, said the course is de-signed to train future archaeologists on how to properly dig and recognize characteristics in the ground that would determine if and how a spot should be excavated.

After winning two of three games against Illinois State March 31-April 1, Saturday’s championship game seemed to whiplash the Salukis as the Redbirds gained an early lead. The Redbirds hit three three-run homeruns in the fi rst three innings while the Salukis managed one run in the second, giving Illinois State a 9-1 lead by the top of the fourth.

The Salukis cycled through all three pitchers by the bottom of the third in an effort to break through the Redbirds’ offense. Blaylock said she felt some regret for taking Lang out so early instead of allow-ing her to settle in for a few innings.

Lang earned the loss, ending the season with an 11-7 record.

"I think you have to give a lot of credit to Illinois State and the way they came out today,” Blaylock said.

“They were swinging right off the bat and they outplayed us in that aspect.”

The Salukis had 10 hits in the game including two hits each from VadeBoncouer, freshman outfi elder Meredith Wilson and sophomore infi elder Jayna Spivey.

While fi nishing second was not the goal, VadeBoncouer said it was still something to be proud of.

"The thing I'm most proud of is that our kids fought until the very

end and did not quit," Blaylock said. "Every inning we tried to put people on and do something so I was proud of them for that."

Blaylock said as the fourth seed, they had to fi ght their way through the fi rst two games against quality opponents and she was proud they made it to the championship.

The 13 runs scored by the Red-birds is the record for the most runs ever in a championship game and put

a cap on the Salukis’ 2012 season.Missouri Valley Conference

Player of the Year Mallory Duran-Sellers went 1-for-3 with a walk in her fi nal game for the Salukis, bringing her total drawn walks to 45, which ties Katie Jordan for SIU's single season record.

VadeBoncouer, Spivey, and ju-nior outfi elder Michelle Bradley were also named to the All-Tourna-ment team for their performances.

SOFTBALLCONTINUED FROM 8

“After going out of fi eld school I was like ‘yes, I want to be an archaeologist, this is what I want to do, I’m going to buy a whip and a hat just like Indiana Jones,’” Hall said.

Welch, whose fi rst excavation was in 1972 when he was a high school stu-dent, said the course has trained aspiring archaeologists on the specifi cs of modern fi eld work for more than 30 years.

At the site, there will be a graduate student and two teaching assistants to aid Welch in retaining a higher level of work from the 16 students that may never have taken part in an excavation before.

Welch said most of his students leave the class with a broader understanding of how excavation works and gain some modern methods of excavating that are less destructive to the ground.

He said using less destructive methods of excavation is important because it aids in preservation of the land, as well as items that may be buried in it.

Geophysical survey is one of the newer, safer techniques the class will use. This method of excavating employs the use of remote machines that survey the land from the surface and display readings of what’s below the ground.

“These instruments record physical characteristics of the near surface deposits.

What these instruments can tell you is that something in the ground here is different from what’s in the ground around it without actually disturbing the ground surface, so it’s non-destructive,” Welch said.

While the fi eld school is optional, the sessions go towards a total of four excavations that are required of ar-chaeology students before they enter a professional career after graduation.

There are eight archaeology courses offered as a part of the Anthropology major, only two of which are below 400 level classes.

Both four week sessions offer two separate classes within them, the fi rst being a 400 level course that teaches stu-dents how to excavate, and the second is of-fered to only graduate students and teaches students how to manage and be in administrative roles on an excavation site.

However, as popularity for these cours-es have grown, the classes have fi lled up quicker during the last four years.

Welch said the course has gained popularity among students and enrollment is the highest it’s been in the past 10 years.

Andrew Lambert, a senior from St. Louis studying anthropology, said he is excited to get out onto the fi eld and start excavating this summer because he’s never had the chance to before.

“Field work is basically a lot different from anything in the classroom,” Lambert said.

DIGCONTINUED FROM 1

“We all have the same goal, and that is to reduce the amount of trash the university sends to the landfi ll,” she said.

Pulliam said during the 2011 fall semester, student workers went to every build-ing on campus to take inventory and inspect the recycling and garbage can situation. She said they found that in the absence of either, people disposed their trash into whatever type of bin was available, but when the two bins were side by side the recyclables and non-recyclables were mostly separated correctly.

“Coincidentally after we inspected the buildings The Alcoa Foundation granted us 150 new recycling bins,” she said.

Those bins are now being distributed to the Mass Communications Building, Law-son Hall, Rehn Hall, Pulliam Hall, Altgeld Hall, Wham, Quigley and the Agriculture Building. The bins will collect both plastic and glass bottles and aluminum cans. In addition to that there will now be recycling bins desig-nated just to paper products.

She said two weeks ago staff members removed garbage cans from every room in Lawson Hall.

Pulliam said students were using them to throw away mostly papers and plastic bottles. She said she had heard of other universities

having the same problem and fi nding success with the removal method.

Since the trash cans were removed, Pulliam said she has seen a decrease in the amount of mixed waste.

The university measures the amount of waste recycled by weight. Pulliam compares the weight of recycled materials to the weight of waste materials to determine the percentage of recycled products.

Pulliam said she hopes to see the amount of non-recyclable waste decrease by fi ve to 10 percent.

According to the Plant and Service Opera-tions website, recyclables are collected by cus-todial staff and grounds crew throughout the week and then they are taken to a collection point once a week.

Pulliam said the next step of the recycling initiative is consistency. She said she thinks the different signs on the bins confuses people be-cause they are not sure what some bins accept and others do not.

“The recycling bins have come in several phases and my goal now is to make them all identical,” she said.

Pulliam said if the Lawson experiment is successful she will continue to remove single trash bins from classrooms in other building.

Despite fi nishing second place in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament, the Salukis house the most highly regarded player in the league.

Senior outfi elder Mallory Duran-Sellers received the MVC Player of the Year honors May 9 at the annual league banquet at the SIU Arena. Duran-Sellers was one of the six Salukis to garner all-conference honors, tied with Creighton for the most selections this season.

SIU hasn’t had a softball player distinguished as MVC Player of the Year since 2008.

“It’s a huge honor, but I was defi nitely surprised when I got it,” Duran-Sellers said. “There are a lot of well deserving girls with a lot of talent in our conference. It’s a huge honor that really topped the years I’ve spent here at SIU.”

In addition to her honors, Duran-Sellers also earned the MVC’s Elite 18 award for having the highest GPA in any conference championship.

The senior was also a 2011 Academic All-American.

“She’s just a good kid,” said coach Kerri Blaylock. “She deserved this award, and I think its great that the league coaches thought she

deserved it too because I get to see how hard she works everyday and they only get to see it three times a year.”

Duran-Sellers’ teammates and coaches are not the only ones impressed by her play.

“I don’t know Mallory personally but I feel like I do,” said Jaye Hutcheson, a senior pitcher and fi rst baseman from North-ern Iowa. “I’ve defi nitely heard her name used by our coach more than any other op-posing player in the conference. She’s a smart girl and you can defi nitely tell by the way she plays softball.”

In a loss Saturday to Illinois State in the MVC Championship game at Charlotte West Stadium, Duran-Sellers went 1-for-3 with a walk in her fi nal game for the Salukis. Despite the end to her fi nal season, Duran-Sellers will stay at SIU as a student until De-cember when she is expected to graduate with a bachelor’s degree in English education.

During the 2011 season, Duran-Sellers hit .398, the fi fth-highest single season batting average in SIU history. This season, Duran-Sellers hit .382 with four home runs, 22 RBIs and a team-high 41 walks, all while main-taining a 4.0 GPA.

Southern Illinois University Carbondale has joined 32 other universities around the nation in ex-panding its recycling program by dis-tributing new recycling bins around campus.

Plant and Service Operations, ! e Center for Environmental Health and Safety, and the Sustainability Council have all joined e" orts to im-prove the university’s recycling pro-gram. ! roughout the week workers from grounds and the physical plant will place new recycling bins awarded to the university by ! e Alcoa Foundation in eight buildings on campus.

! e Alcoa Foundation is part of a national recycling program designed to improve and expand recycling e" orts on college campuses nation wide.

New outdoor garbage and recycling can duos are also being distributed throughout campus by Physical Plant Workers and should be # nished by the end of the week.

Brad Dillard and David Tippy of Physical Plant were not available for comment as of press time on Tuesday.

Megan Pulliam, university-recycling coordinator and graduate student from Pekin in public administration, said the collaboration of departments is what has

While many SIU students go home for sum-mer, a group of anthropology students prepare for a hands-on class that features the digging of land where a large group of Native Americans once lived.

! e class, titled “Field Methods in Archaeol-ogy,” will teach students the ins and outs of exca-vation, a process of carefully digging up artifacts in the ground and determining their relevance in accordance to the Native Americans that once lived there. ! e class, which starts Monday, will station students at the Kincaid Mounds in Brookport, a location owned by the Illinois Pres-ervation Society.

! is stretch of land was once home to a large group of Native Americans and many homes and other objects have been discovered in past # eld schools. ! e site has been researched by SIUC students since 2005 and was also excavated by the University of Chicago in the 1930’s.

! e goal is also to prepare students for life as an archaeologist and give them the skills and # eld experience needed to land a job in archae-ology. Both sessions consist of a four week time period where the students live near the site and

dig everyday.Paul Welch, # eld school director and associate

professor of anthropology, said the course is de-signed to train future archaeologists on how to properly dig and recognize characteristics in the ground that would determine if and how a spot should be excavated.

“A lot of people as a result of looking at Hollywood movies or TV shows think ‘Oh, I can be an archaeologist, all I need is a shovel and I’ll go out and dig something up’, but it turns out that in order to do excavation well, you have to be able to recognize things in the ground that ordi-narily people wouldn’t even notice,” Welch said.

Maddie Hall, a senior from Champaign studying anthropology, said when she went to # eld school last summer she le$ with more knowledge of archaeology and the kind of work goes into excavation.

“It was the excitement, the connection that we were making towards the # rst inhabitants, the people that were here so long ago,” Hall said.

Hall said while she does have her reservations about her major, # eld school put everything into per-spective for her and made her hopeful for the future.
