SIU Salukis eye NCAA tourney rewards over NIT pay
SIU athletic director Paul Kowalczyk says the NCAA tournament brings prestige and larger revenue than the NIT. With an expected $188,000 share plus $33,557 per win, SIU could gain around $255,000, easing a big departmental deficit while NCAA exposure boosts campus spirit and national attention.

Trail plan for Jackson County greenways faces homeowner pushback
Harrisburg to Karnak radar includes Rend Lake Trail in Jefferson and Franklin counties. Jackson County Greenways and Trails Task Force, backed by the county board and SIU Carbondale, hosts two public open houses on March 18 to discuss routes and ownership, with possible land condemnation only as a last resort. Community consensus is urged as planners outline off road links using the old rail bed south of Illinois 13, with five corridors identified and costs ranging from 50 000 to 150 000 per mile plus bridges and culverts.
