While Mills is the volunteer working on the podcast, the idea came from Murphy.
Mills is a host, along with Hunter Greenleaf, Jordan Murphy and Skylar Anderson, who are all youth involved with the organization.
“They’re not the kids who are highly confident, but the confident kids don’t need us. They don’t need the support that the other kids do.”
Since the Pride prom was a success, OUTreach is planning a monthly social event to introduce kids who struggle with confidence to each other. Janney said the events so far have had about 40-60 kids, and the youth group is planning an LGBTQ family skate at the end of September and a Halloween dance in October.

Greenleaf said she hopes more kids get involved with the youth group in the future and feel comfortable coming out to their friends and family.
“We usually see kids who are bullied or not accepted at home and have social anxiety,” she said.
It’s been really great to meet all these wonderful people, and honestly, it’s what I look forward to every Saturday we meet.”
The local youth group also has a podcast called the OUTcast, which features local youth, volunteers and guests who discuss topics pertaining to the LGBTQ community and intersectionality.

“That’s something I feel really strongly about,” she said. “I would just like to create a space where it doesn’t matter your age … People can come in, work on their laptop, hang out — whatever.”

On Sept. 3, OUTreach hosted Muncie Pride downtown with live music, drag queens, vendors and kids games. Janney said she hoped this event would also get more youth involved and teach the community more about OUTreach.

Greenleaf also enjoys the social aspect of the organization, even though she felt like she didn’t need it at first.
Laura Janney said her son, Matt, felt isolated amongst his peers growing up because he was gay. She would drive her son to Indianapolis for Indiana Youth Group, where he could find people like him and make friends.
Janney said OUTreach is a volunteer-run organization, and a lot of her job includes seeking donations, organizing volunteers and looking for ways to grow the youth group. This year, she said the organization has two goals: hire a new executive

“In 2016, I was looking for an organization where I could donate my time and be of some use to the community here in Muncie,” Mills said. “My friend introduced me to OUTreach, and I just fell in love with it.”

“I was washing dishes one day at work, and I was bored, so I wanted something to listen to,” Murphy said. “I had the idea of doing a podcast, and this podcast means a lot to me, it’s like my child. …
“I hope it breaks the cycle of trauma for closeted kids,” she said. “Muncie OUTreach feels like a safe space for queer people, which is nice to see.”
“Outside of this group, I’m kind of introverted,” Murphy said. “This is the only time I get to be more myself without being judged.”

For 10 years, Janney has worked as the executive director and founder of Muncie OUTreach — Delaware County’s only LGBTQ youth group. According to its website, “Muncie OUTreach’s mission is to provide an accepting environment to enhance the personal growth of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning youth in the Delaware County area.”
While these are the organization’s goals for 2022, Janney said the youth group still struggles with finances, which she believes is a common problem with every nonprofit. However, she said the COVID-19 pandemic made that problem, along with getting Muncie-area youth involved, more difficult.
Murphy said they wanted to give a platform to Anderson, Greenleaf and Murphy. Although their favorite part of OUTreach is the podcast, they also said they enjoy the social aspect of the group.

According to the Ball State Career Center’s website, some statistics are presented to highlight the importance and results of the Cardinal Job Fair.
As a Ball State employee of seven years, Swift described the Cardinal Job Fair as “an excellent networking opportunity for Ball State students and alumni to come with upwards of 180 employers from a very diverse pool.” Swift said the event is most important to the university and its students
Through planning, Tucker III said the Career Center continuously looks for ways to make events, such as the Cardinal Job Fair, best for those who attend.
Each semester, the Ball State University Career Center hosts the Cardinal Job Fair. With over 180 employers scheduled, current Cardinals and Ball State alumni have the chance to speak with businesses in their search for a job, and potentially find a long-term career.
For the fall 2022 semester, the Cardinal Job Fair is Wednesday, Sept. 21, from 11 a.m.- 3 p.m. at Worthen Arena. Brandi Swift, coordinator of Employer Relations for the Ball State Career Center, said planning for the event starts six months out, whether that be contacting and securing every employer, ensuring the event doesn’t run alongside any athletic events, posting yard signs, printing flyers and anything in between.
Oh my goodness, the return on investment. Students spend four years of their time here at university. The long term goal of that is to snag the right job at the end. I think this is an opportunity to do just that.”

“A big core concept of our Career Center team is making sure we have both the pulse of the students or alumni, but also the employers kind of listening to that feedback just to get a good gauge for what people are looking for,” Tucker III said. “...

He said the planning never stops. The day after the spring job fair is held, the Career Center starts planning for the fall job fair. That said, Tucker III said the resulting opportunity to host over 180 employers at the Cardinal Job Fair is huge for those hoping to find a job.
She said the Career Center does everything possible to make things easy for students while planning the job fair.

Elissa Maudlin Editor-in-Chief
While getting ready for the Sept. 15 edition of the Ball State Daily News, my team and I couldn’t help but notice a big national and statewide event taking up space in our everyday lives. On June 24, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, and the same day of publishing this paper, a new abortion law would take effect in our own state.
This letter serves as context to the stories and reporting you are about to delve into, as well as a reminder of The Daily News’ editorial responsibility. In this section, you will find information on what SB 1 is, details for Indiana and other states, as well as how different people on campus feel about the new bill. This doesn’t reflect the staff’s own personal feelings on SB 1 or abortion as a whole – we are just observers, investigating important facts and giving perspectives from people in the Ball State community.
By ignoring this change, The Daily News would be ignoring our responsibility to tell the stories of our world and convey history as it is happening. Despite any personal views, my team and I felt students at Ball State University and residents of Delaware County deserved information on what was going on around them. Thus, this special section for Senate Bill 1 was born.

The next tier of contraceptives is birth control pills, the patch and the vaginal ring. According to Planned Parenthood, the patch has estrogen and progestin and stops ovulation, which means the egg isn’t there for the sperm to fertilize. The vaginal ring releases hormones and also stops ovulation and fertilization.
injection, which lasts for three months. A patient will get four shots a year, and it has a six percent failure rate, according to the Women’s Center.
Once an IUD or an implant is removed, the fertility of the patient returns. Both of these contraceptives are able to be removed early.
Pills are used daily, the patch is used once a week and the ring, such as the NuvaRing, is used once a month, Graybeal said.
Hannah Amos Associate News Editor
HPA, on the second floor of the Health Center, offers a variety of condoms. When it comes to the “higher tier,” or what Graybeal said meant more effective birth control, she said to “go schedule an appointment, go see a provider who can talk to you about contraceptive options and find what works for you.”
- MOLLY GRAYBEAL, Women’s health nurse practitioner
“I find that lately … in their explanation of why they want to talk about birth control, they’ll say ‘Well, because [of] how things are now in Indiana, I really want to make sure that I don’t get pregnant when I’m not ready,’” Graybeal said.
“If anything, there’s more reason to put funding into preventing unwanted pregnancies,” Graybeal said, “and that would be helping to provide contraceptive services to everyone.”
With the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade and Indiana’s new abortion bill (SB 1) put into effect Sept. 15, there’s been an increase of attention on reproductive health and contraceptives.
The Women’s Center is no longer able to provide a diaphragm. Additionally, HPA and the Health Center do not provide emergency contraceptives, such as Plan B One-Step, Weston said. Open Door provides emergency contraceptives but appointments are necessary.
Going down the list, there are IUDs— 99 percent effective, Graybeal said—and an implant that goes in the arm. The two methods are “long-acting, reversible contraceptives,” Graybeal said. They are “meant to stay in for a long period of time,” she said, and the lowest is three years while the highest is 10 years, depending on the type.
Afterperiods.”thosemethods is the “Depo-shot,” or the
I find that lately … in their explanation of why they want to talk about birth control, they’ll say ‘Well, because [of] how things are now in Indiana, I really want to make sure that I don’t get pregnant when I’m not ready,’”
Open Door is a “contraceptive clinic,” meaning they don’t perform abortions and focus on prevention.
JOSIE SANTIAGO, DN ILLUSTRATION
Graybeal had patients call and ask for their annual birth control pills early or to have their devices switched out early to prolong their use.
Despite concerns of birth control being taken away, Graybeal isn’t in “panic mode.”
“HPA provides safer-sex resources, instructions on how to use said resources and information about consent,” Weston said. “We also provide presentations, events, individual and group consultations based on many sexual health topics (including but not limited to: communication, reproductive health, STI’s [sexually transmitted infections], STI testing, contraception and other resources on campus in the community.)”
Another combattent Graybeal deals with is unequal levels of sex education. She finds herself often dispelling myths on sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and the thought that “someone with the uterus is the only one that’s responsible forOncontraception.”BallState
Due to these concerns, patients are looking into longer-acting birth control methods, such as intrauterine devices (IUDs) and implants, like Nexplanon, that go in the arm, Graybeal said. Patients are also thinking about the effectiveness of the different methods, due to their concerns of birth control being taken away.
DNSB1 09.15.22 10
“All those methods tend to work the same. They have estrogen and progestin, and the idea is that you get three weeks of hormones and then one week that’s hormone free,” Graybeal said. “So you get menstrual regulation with that and sometimes lighter
Like Open Door, Ball State’s Health Center, through the Women’s Center, also provides contraceptives, according to its website. When it comes to contraceptive use, Graybeal recommends starting with condoms because they’re over-thecounter and other methods require a prescription.
The “higher tier” of birth control starts at sterilization, which is a form of permanent birth control. Neither Open Door or the Women’s Center perform this kind of birth control. Sterilization gets rid of the ability for the pregnant person to be pregnant.
As a clinic that follows Title X – a regulation that requires accessible, affordable and equitable reproductive and sexual health care – Open Door is required to show all of the options to patients who are pregnant and unsure of their plans, including information on abortion.
Contact Hannah Amos with comments at hannah.amos@bsu.edu or on Twitter @Hannah_ Amos_394.
The Women’s Center can refer a patient to an OBGYN if they seek to use either of these birth control
options. The Open Door clinic does offer these contraceptives, and they perform the procedure.
Molly Graybeal, women’s health nurse practitioner at Open Door Family Planning, has noticed this increase of interest since the end of June.
University’s campus, Health Promotion and Advocacy (HPA) focuses on “inclusive health and wellness education,” said HPA Director Re’Nesha Weston via email.
The Women’s Center discusses the effectiveness of male and female condoms.
Title X, which Open Door uses, helps patients obtain these methods with little to no cost. It also allows them, including minors, to keep their reproductive health private from anyone but theirFordoctor.moreinformation on these services, contact Open Door Family Planning and HPA through their websites.
After SB 1, contraceptives still exist in Indiana to prevent pregnancy FUTURE PLANNING
“We have a list, like a handout, of the closest locations where [the patients] can get resources on abortion information [and] schedule [an] appointment,” Graybeal said. “We had like three clinics in the Indiana-area that were on that list. And so now, we still will be giving out the information because that’s part of our Title X requirement, but that list has completely changed, and all the clinics that we have that we feel are the closest to the Muncie-area are in Illinois.”
In the last tier are condoms, spermicides and diaphragms, which all have around a 70 percent effective rate. Diaphragms have to be fitted to the patient’s vagina by a professional, and spermicides need to be used with it as well, Graybeal said.
The Women’s Center and Open Door offer all of these options. According to the CDC, the “typical use failure rate” for all of these is 7 percent.

On June 24, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision. Before June, access to abortion was considered a federal constitutional right. There’s been a history regarding abortion before and after the overturning Roe v. Wade, with dueling groups of people that are anti-abortion or believe in abortion rights. After it was overturned, it gave the states the right to regulate — or ban abortion entirely. Indiana is one of states with new laws regarding abortion. Here is a list of events that lead to the eventual overturning.

Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization was brought to the Supreme Court, a case dealing with a Mississippi law that bans abortion after 15 weeks.
Now that Roe v. Wade has been overturned, we need to step up our game in sex education, providing help and understanding needs

The Daily News reached out to the Muncie community to hear their thoughts on Indiana’s SB 1. Emme Woodward is a third-year criminal justice major and a contributor to The Daily News. Her views do not necessarily reflect those of the newspaper.
There are some parts of [SB 1] we like, like only medically-needed abortions. We would like to see more help in other ways, like finding private financial help, medical help and other things. We would love to see more action in helping people for the reasons they want an abortion, like lack of time, finances, stability, etc. We do want to see more resolution and actual helpfulness.
I would first like to mention common trends I have seen within [Students for Life] that I think are important to mention in regards to our beliefs. We do believe abortion violates our 14th Amendment right to life and liberties. There are certain procedures that are done for a woman in danger from the pregnancy (I am attempting to avoid triggering wording.) In extreme situations like treatment for an ectopic pregnancy, we do not think of that as an abortion but as life-saving treatment that is medically necessary. We believe that life-saving treatment should still be present. A lot of us also believe contraceptives, like birth control, condoms, birth control implants, the morning after pill, are perfectly fine. These things do not impact what we stand for, especially for immediate and other medical use. We are advocating for more sex education and finding economical or free resources because we do not believe that these things are covered enough. We hope that through the people’s effort and the state’s effort, we can manage to do this because this runs much deeper than Roe v. Wade. I bring this up because it isn’t
“We are anti-abortion, yes, but we are ready to up our game and start making attempts to help mothers who are pregnant in these times of uncertainty.”
The Next ForwardStep
When people hear we are pro-life, all most people hear is anti-abortion and anti-women. We are anti-abortion, yes, but we are ready to up our game and start making attempts to help mothers who are pregnant in these times of uncertainty. We perceived Roe v. Wade as a part of the problem we are trying to avoid, and we are excited to take more steps as things progress in this area to keep moving towards health, safety and awareness. We are making efforts to better these things, and we are hoping to see more change come soon.
enough to leave abortion to the states, but we have to (and should have been for a long time) providing information to our youth, so they can better know what to do. The overturning of Roe v. Wade goes much deeper than this one thing, like I mentioned. We believe it is time for the U.S. to really step up its game in adequately teaching our kids about these things. I think that is something a lot of people can agree on, legal abortion or not. We need to take broader steps to start dealing with these issues because they do not just go away because the government says so.

To enforce SB 1, new committees will examine the claims of women about rape and study maternal mortality. State Representative Sue Errington (D-IN 34) reports that “SB 1 proponents are preemptively writing legislation to examine potential future false allegations of rape and/or incest to qualify for abortion
We tried, we failed and we will continue.
Looking to Indianapolis, Ryan Mears (D), Prosecutor for Indianapolis, indicated his refusal to prosecute women and doctors in abortion cases.
Errington, who has dedicated her political career to reproductive rights, underscores, “The only way to change these policies is to change the conservative supermajority composition of Indiana’s state legislature, transfixed currently by extremism.” Errington is advocating for a statewide, Kansas-like referendum on SB 1.

Indiana’s state legislature is 82 percent male, and they overwhelmingly voted in favor of removing ALL exceptions and against expanding access to sexual education, contraception, which prevents unplanned pregnancies and the abortions they purport to want to stop, did not listen to most Hoosiers.
More babies will be born, some into poverty, domestic violence and addiction. More mothers will die.
Indianapolis’ Chamber of Commerce, joining numerous large scale Indiana employers, asked the State Legislature to not move forward with SB 1.
Accordinghealthcare.”totheRape, Abuse and Incest National Network, fewer than 2.5 percent of rape allegations are found to be false. Indiana has arrived at a frightening and dark place: a juxtaposition of virtually non-existent false allegations of rape against legal abortion access.
The Effects ofRoe’s Fall
JOSIE SANTIAGO, DN ILLUSTRATION Read the full story online. ON BALLSTATEDAILY.COM
As a Muncie native, human rights activist and nonprofit executive, I understand the limits of coastal activism in Indiana and have organized events with human rights leaders, politicians and local and national organizations, engaging hundreds of Hoosiers, Ball State University and high school students, keeping in mind that it’s not okay to say we care about people, but not care about the policies failing them. When we “don’t get political,” we ignore the harm exacted through bad policies and the lack of knowledge about them.
Enforcement
Delaware County Prosecutor Eric Hoffman (D), shares, “As Prosecuting Attorney, I was not elected to make or repeal laws. I was elected to enforce them.” Hoffman emphasized, “with regard to the new criminal statutes concerning abortion, I will use the same case-by-case prosecutorial discretion I do in all other cases in deciding whether to prosecute.”
In stark contrast, Rep. Elizabeth Rowray (R-IN 35), President/CEO of the Muncie/Delaware County Chamber of Commerce, voted in favor of Indiana’s zero-week abortion ban.
DNSB109.15.2215
Roe v. Wade has been struck down, and Indiana’s zero-week abortion ban, SB 1, the most restrictive abortion ban in the United States, is law. What does this mean for girls, women and pregnant people in (Middletown) Muncie, Indiana?
Her message to Hoosier voters, “Register to vote by Indiana’s deadline of Oct. 11, and vote for candidates who support gender equality and reproductive rights.”
“When we ‘don’t get political,’ we ignore the harm exacted through bad policies and the lack of knowledge about them.”

Amber also carries plus-size clothing. She said she often decides which products and brands to carry in her store based on the range of sizes the clothing comes in.
According to the Delaware County website, Muncie’s economic backbone used to be industry and manufacturing, owed in great part to the large reservoir of natural gas in eastern Indiana that once powered them.
She is also the sole operator of the business, handling everything from managing finances to checking clients out at the cash register, Chris Greene, her husband, said.
Taking Fate Into Her Own Hands
She said she chose to open a boutique in particular because it was an example of a missing business that wasn’t giving Delaware County residents a chance to shop locally.
“I hung the shelves in her store, and that’s it,” heThesaid.Greenes both said that opening a store in response to Amber’s job search troubles was a risky move, but Chris had faith in his wife and her ambitions.“She’sa very driven person and works hard,” he said. “It’s likely worth the risk because she’s going to do everything she can do to make it work.”
In the 1970s, however, after the wells of natural gas ran dry, the factories couldn’t operate anymore and began shutting down en masse. In the decades succeeding, Delaware County lost thousands of job opportunities, marking the end of Muncie’s economic prosperity.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, Amber Greene was a field sales executive for a company that advertised beauty products in salons in Indiana, northeast Ohio and Illinois. However, when the first wave of the pandemic hit the U.S. in March 2020, Greene was out of work when the salons she worked for started shutting down.
“Especially … older women will kind of back off and be like, ‘Oh, I’m too old for that [outfit].’ I think that’s garbage,” Amber said. “Wear what you want to wear.”
Amber weighs many different factors in her business decisions, including the location of her store, the state of the economy at large and how she can advertise her business, she said. Although her position is difficult, she has every intention of growing the Fate Style Studio brand.

She applied for a position in multiple companies, but none responded favorably. In fact, some companies rejected her application and résumé so quickly that it was impossible to have reviewed it first, Greene said.
“By not providing that option to buy … an outfit or a pair of shoes or whatever here locally, we’re literally forcing that money outside of the community,” Amber said. “You can’t grow that way.”
During this time, Greene noticed construction on 8919 W. Adaline Street, tearing down walls and renovating a unit for sale. Frustrated with the job search and the digital filters, she made a steadfast resolution on New Year’s Day of 2021.
“Delaware County is in a rebuilding phase,” Amber said. “We’re still trying to figure out how to thrive without the factories that this community was built on.”
When she was still in school, Amber said that there were plenty of stores for her to shop at, from big chains like JCPenney’s to small, local clothing stores. That variety doesn’t exist anymore, she said.
New Venture Gear (an automotive company) and Westinghouse Electric Corporation were examples of other companies that brought wealth to Delaware County.
“When you own a business, you have to have an open mind and you have to be willing to look at all avenues,” Amber said. “I’m between a rock and a hard place, but I’m not a quitter either.”

Andry had success at Taylor, where he was named Crossroads Coach of the Year five times, and the Golf Coaches Association of America named him National Assocation of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) north region coach of the year twice – he also has multiple men’s and women’s tournament wins over the years.
“He is super motivated, extremely competitive and just a great person to be around and creates a great environment for the team.”
While Andry was at Taylor working in sports communications, the men’s golf coach position opened up. Then in time, he started the women’s golfUnderprogram.Andry, the women’s program at Taylor won multiple Crossroads League Championships, ranked inside the top 10 nationally in NAIA and placed within the top five at the NAIA National Championship.
The Cardinals played in their first competition Sept. 11-12 at the Redbird Invitational, hosted at Weibring Golf Club in Normal, Illinois. The Cardinals placed 10th out of 15 teams, with junior Kiah Parrott tying for eighth individually.

“I always thought coaching was something that I would enjoy,” Andry said. “Not even necessarily golf, I just loved sports … I decided I was going to go into the media side of things.”
“We got a few good players in, and we started the women’s program. Starting a program from scratch is not for the faint of heart,” Andry said. “There is some work that goes into it, but you can also really see some things pay off. I really got to grow and learn.”
Andry is amazing. I don’t think it could have worked out better truthfully,” Gallagher said.
Ball State finished fifth in the MAC in 2022 without winning an event all season. The Cardinals’ best tournament performance last season was a fourth place finish at the Courtney Cole Invitational hosted by Indiana University.

After spending the last 11 seasons coaching at Taylor University, Cameron Andry was named the new head coach of women’s golf at Ball State University in July.
The women’s team has three freshmen, two sophomores, one junior and one graduate student. Five of those seven players are new to Ball State.

We will have some growing pains like any young team will. Overall, we have a lot of skill and help them day by day, showing and doing the work. We have great leaders in Kiah (Parrott) and Payton (Bennett). Every day, if we put in the work to get better, I think we will like where we end up.”
Our goal is to get better every day. For our team to care about one another as well and be great teammates and to compete in everything that we do.”
Andry said winning “is not out of the question at all,” but there are things they can’t control.
Andry said his time at Taylor and with the men’s golf program was a “great time” in his life. When starting the program, he felt it was well established but not as successful as he wanted.

“If you do that, that will set the stage for results and put our focus on what we can control. There is a lot of stuff you don’t control in golf. You can control the mentality you bring and the preparation that you put into it. After that, you just have to tee it up and see what you have that day.”
