Illinois Wesleyan University, founded in 1850, enrolls about 2,100 undergraduates in the College of Liberal Arts, with 17 academic departments, and in the Schools of Art, Music, Nursing and Theatre

Arts. The 2004 edition of The Fiske Guide to Colleges lists the University as one of its 22 “best buys” among the nation’s private colleges, describing Illinois Wesleyan as “at once cozy and diverse, loaded with opportunities for ambitious students.” Emphasizing a distinctive liberal arts curriculum as the central feature of every student’s education, IWU also provides opportunities for professional and pre-professional preparation. The student-faculty ratio of 12-to-1 means that the University’s students are active participants in their education, often working individually with faculty members on research. As a residential university, Illinois Wesleyan provides a vibrant campus environment in which rich co-curricular offerings complement the primary academic mission. About 30 percent of each graduating class goes on to graduate school, with recent alumni accepted into law schools, medical schools, and in other advanced degree programs.New Facilities. The $25 million Ames Library (at right), a place where books, journals and other materials of intellect and culture are complemented by exciting computer and information technology, opened in 2002 and the recent $6 million renovation of the Memorial Gym has resulted in the Hansen Student Center, a facility designed to meet the social, recreational, and educational needs of IWU students. IWU’s attractive and well-maintained 73-acre campus saw approximately $51 million in new construction in the 1990s, including the Shirk Center for Athletics and Recreation (1994), the Center for Natural Science Learning and Research (1995), the Center for Liberal Arts (1997) as well as a residence hall, accommodating 118 students in suite-like apartments (1997). The Shirk Center was funded in part by a $5 million gift from the Russell and Betty Shirk Foundation of Bloomington. The Shirk family owns Beer Nuts, Inc.®, the Bloomington-based snack food company. The two-level, 135,344-square foot complex seats 2,680 in its performance arena, and contains four multi-use courts for tennis, volleyball, basketball, as well as racquetball courts, a 200-meter track, a training room and wellness center, classrooms, and other facilities. In 1999 the Jack Horenberger Baseball Field was opened, which paved the way in 2000 for new softball and soccer fields. The science center has 15 technologically-equipped classrooms, lecture halls, and seminar rooms; 18 teaching labs; 27 research labs; and facilities for computers. The Center for Liberal Arts houses 60 faculty offices, classrooms, and facilities for social science, humanities, business and economics.

Distinguished Speakers. In the past few years, IWU has hosted a number of outstanding speakers, including former U.S. Defense Secretary William

Cohen, authors Maya Angelou and Kurt Vonnegut, and film directors Kevin Smith and Spike Lee.Accomplished Alums. Illinois Wesleyan alumni of distinction include Edward B. Rust, Jr., ’72, president and chief executive officer of Bloomington-based State Farm Insurance; Jack Sikma ‘77, seven-time NBA All-Star and current assistant coach for the Houston Rockets; Dawn Upshaw ’82, a two-time Grammy-award winning singer with the New York Metropolitan Opera; Frankie Faison ’71, who has appeared in the films “Silence of the Lambs”, “The Thomas Crown Affair” and “Coming to America”; Akito Mizuno ’74, senior managing director of Mizuno, the world’s largest sporting goods company; Steve Vogel ’68, author of the best-selling true crime book “Reasonable Doubt”; and Richard Jenkins ’69, who was nominated for an Academy Award for his starring role in the 2008 movie “The Visitor.”

RICHARD F. WILSON, PRESIDENTRichard F. Wilson became the 18th president at Illinois Wesleyan in July 2004.

Since 1978 Wilson has served in a number of roles at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, most recently (since 1996) as Vice President of the U. of Illinois Foundation. He was responsible for all private fundraising on the Urbana campus, including leading campus efforts to achieve its $1 billion goal as part of the university’s comprehensive campaign.

From 1986 to 1994, Wilson was Associate Chancellor, leading efforts to incorporate computing technologies into instruction and providing oversight of intercollegiate athletics. In 1994,

he became Associate Chancellor for Development and Deputy Director of the University of Illinois Foundation.

Since 1981 Wilson held an adjunct teaching position in the College of Education, most recently as Adjunct Professor of Higher Education.

Wilson earned a bachelor’s degree in mathematics from Alderson-Broaddus College (W.Va.), where he earned honors in both academics and athletics.

Wilson pursued advanced degrees at the University of Michigan, earning both the master’s and doctoral degrees in higher education.

Wilson and his wife, Pat, have two children-—-Adam, who lives in San Francisco, and Rachel, who lives in Springfield, Ill.

ILLINOIS WESLEYAN STADIUM AT WILDER FIELDThe fifth oldest NCAA football stadium in the country

Illinois Wesleyan Stadium (pictured in 1941), built on the site of Wilder Field, has been used for University athletic contests for over 114 years. Since the spring of 1893, Wilder Field has been available for use by stu-dents (who had contributed $500 toward its purchase price). The field was named for Rev. William Henry Wilder, IWU president from 1888-97 and the first alum to serve as University president. According to research done in 2000 by sports information director B.B. Branton of the University of the South, the IWU football field is the fifth oldest in the nation, behind Wesleyan (1881), Williams (1883), Sewanee and Amherst (both 1891). In 1937 ground was broken for a community stadium on Wilder Field under the sponsorship of IWU, the Bloomington Association of Commerce, and several city athletic associations. Funds for the project were obtained through the Works Progress Administration, a New Deal agency, and, given

the depressed economic times in America, construction of the stadium was considered unprecedented. It took four years for com-pletion of the $200,000 project, which seats 3,500 spectators. Renovation completed in 2000 made improvements to the field and stadium, providing the field with new sod, drainage tiles, and watering system, and moved the field 10 yards east to aid the curve of the new track. A visitors locker room was built below the stadium bleachers, where IWU uses the original locker room space for its pre-game meetings, and there is a "Titan Wall", signed by former IWU football players. The 2000 renovation also returned lights to the venue and a night game was played in 2002 for the first time since 1973. The renovation has also made the stadium handicap accessible for fans and doubled the size of the press box.

SCHOOL COLORS, NICKNAME HISTORIES

COLORS: According to the book, Our College Colors by Henry L. Snyder, the college colors at Illinois Wesleyan in 1887 were navy blue and light gray, then changed in 1892 to purple and a steel color. It was in 1896 that IWU adopted the color scheme of green and white.

NICKNAME: The 1929-30 basketball season was the first time the nickname "Titans" was pinned on the Illinois Wesleyan athletic teams. At one time or another, such names as "Gaws," "Green Dragons," and "Boy Beauties" were used, but none of those endured.

HEAD COACH NORM EASHIn 22 seasons as Illinois Wesleyan University head football coach, Norm Eash has built the Titans into one of the country's highly-regarded and respected NCAA Division III programs. In the more than two decades he has coached eight first team Division III All-Americans, eight Academic All-Americans, and one winner of the Gagliardi Trophy honoring the nation's top Division III player (Lon Erickson in 1996).

Eash's career record at his alma mater is 132-77-1 (.631), making him second among IWU coaches in victories (Eash's college coach, Don Larson, had 168 wins from 1954-86). Prior to 2008, Eash ranked 53rd among all-time Division III coaches in both winning percentage and in victories (20th among active coaches in wins). The "dean" of league coaches, Eash has been

College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin "Coach of the Year" in 2007, 2001, 1996 and 1992. His career CCIW mark is 98-60-1 (.619), making him fourth all-time in victories in the league.

In the decade of the 1990s, Eash's teams were 72-21-1 (.771) and were consistently rated in national publicationsamong the top Division III teams. Eash's 1996 and 1992 teams were both 10-1, captured CCIW outright championships, and both advanced to the quarterfinal round of the Division III playoffs. Eash's 1994, 2000, 2001 and 2007 teams shared the CCIW title. Prior to 1992, only three other IWU teams (1965, 1951, and 1888) had gone through the regular season with a perfect record and the 1992 team was the first Titan team to claim an outright, undefeated CCIW championship since 1965.

A native of Chenoa, Ill., Eash captained his high school football and basketball teams and was a Little All-State football selection in 1970. A 1975 IWU graduate, Eash was a starting defensive lineman as a sophomore and a starting offensive tackle his last two seasons, playing on an 8-1 team in 1974 that tied for the CCIW title. Eash taught physical education and was an assistant coach in football, basketball, and track at Streator High School from 1975 to 1982, then was head football coach and athletic director at Dwight High School. His Dwight teams were 34-15, qualified for the Illinois High School playoffs three times, and reached the Class 2A quarterfinals in 1983, when Eash was Kankakee Area Coach of the Year.Eash and his wife, Cheryl, have one son (Kyle) and four daughters (Kendra, Kelsey, Kaylyn and Karley).

In addition to his duties as football coach, Eash is an associate athletic director at IWU and he has led Titan teams to victories in international exhibition games in Germany (1996), Italy (2001), France (2005) and Austria (2009).

WINNING STREAK MARK SET IN 1996The 1996 Titans set a school record with 15 consecutive wins (10 in 1996 and the final five games of 1995). That eclipsed the previous mark of 12 set by the 1992 team (10 in 1992 and the final two of 1991). The next highest win streak is nine, set by winning the final six of the 1974 season and the first three in 1975. The previous school record for games without a loss was 13, from 1933 to 1934. That string included four ties.

TITAN FOOTBALL STATISTICAL RECORDS

The Illinois Wesleyan football team exploded for 28 first quarter points en route to a 64-14 win over the Vienna Vikings in the Pfizer Charity Bowl XI in Vienna on Monday, June 1. The Titans amassed 438 total yards (223 rushing and 215 passing) in the win and were stingy on defense, on the field for only 19 defensive plays and allowing just two first downs in the first half. The Titans forced four first half turnovers and one more in the second half while committing only one on an interception. "It was a good game for us," said head coach Norm Eash. "We came out and made some big plays and were dominating defensively. We had balanced scoring and production on offense and it is a great thing to find out a lot about our program, having veterans respond and being able to see how some of the young players react

in a game situation." Kraig Ladd completed 12 of 13 passes for 145 yards and two touchdowns and Brien Rooney connected on 4 of 11 passes for 70 yards and two TDs while also running for 71 yards on eight carries with a score. Jack Scalcucci proved to be a popular target, making five catches for 62 yards and two TDs while Joseph Driver had four grabs for 95 yards and also had two touchdowns. Travis Brubaker led IWU with 72 rushing yards on 10 carries with a touchdown and Matt Berg added 60 yards on four carries with a TD. The game, which was seen by 4,500 fans and raised approximately $15,000 for charity, was the fourth inter-national win for an Eash-coached team. IWU previously won in Germany (1997), Italy (2001) and France (2005).

Illinois Wesleyan's appearance

in the 1992 NCAA Division III

playoffs was the school's first

postseason action since Nov. 25,

1948, when IWU met Eastern

Illinois on Thanksgiving Day in

the second annual Corn Bowl.

Before a crowd estimated at

8,500 at Wesleyan Stadium, the

Titans and Panthers were score-

less heading into the final quar-

ter, or as Pantagraph sports edi-

tor and 1915 IWU alumnus Fred

Young wrote, "Touchdowns were as scarce as diamonds in a junk heap."

Eight plays and 40 yards after team captain Curt Brown intercepted an

Eastern pass, sophomore quarterback Gib Baechler dove in from a yard

out with 1:06 left to give IWU a lead they did not relinquish as the Titans

won, 6-0. Coached by Bob "Big Bustem" Morrow (a 1941 IWU grad who

played professional football with the Chicago Cardinals), the Titans fin-

ished with a 7-3 record in 1948 and were led by Don Larson (IWU coach

from 1954-86), Gerry Bradley, Bill Gross, Lou Polovich, Don Eddy and

Pete Kearney. The victorious trophy is shown at left.

The Titans were 1-1 in 1992 NCAA playoff action, topping Aurora,

21-12, at IWU before falling to Mount Union, 49-27. Quarterback Tom

Monken was brilliant in the two games, completing 38 of 57 passes for

474 yards, but Mount Union quarterback Jim Ballard set an NCAA

record with 17 consecutive completions in the first half en route to a 26

of 33 day with 454 yards and five touchdowns. That yardage total was a

record for an IWU opponent.

IWU was also 1-1 in the 1996 playoffs, downing Albion on the road

(23-20) before falling again to Mount Union (49-14), who went on to

become Division III national champions. Titan end Steve Peterson’s

block of a potential game-tying 19-yard field goal with 1:22 left saved

IWU’s win at Albion. Mount Union stormed to 35 second quarter points

behind quarterback Bill Borchert., who threw for 228 yards and rushed

for 97 more.
