In the same time Ball State has risen its rates 10.6 percent. The meeting also acted as the end to what Board of Trustees president Hollis Hughes called the “opportunity of a lifetime.” Hughes stepped down after three years as president. He has served on the board for 25 years: a member in 1989, secretary in 2006 and president in 2011. Hughes graduated from Ball State in 1965 with a bachelor’s degree and later with a master’s degree in 1972.

Ball State alumnus plans to bring free guns and a safety program to Indianapolis in February, in an attempt to prove an armed and trained community reduces crime. The Armed Citizens Project chooses neighborhoods in cities with average to high crime rates and then offers a free pumpaction shotgun to any willing citizen in the neighborhood who also passes a background check and takes part in a gun safety program. “We’re giving shotguns because they’re perfect

It sends chills up people’s spins.” Training includes education about gun safety and practice at a gun range so participants are comfortable holding their weapons. So far, the project has trained 240 citizens and armed 90, according to Coplen. “We’re not just throwing shotguns into random yards,” he said.

It’s a bit of déjà vu for the Ball State women’s basketball team. The Cardinals have won four of five, and now sit on a .500 record. Though head coach Brady Sallee doesn’t put too much stock into the team’s overall record, he knows players appreciate the mark. “I don’t really care a whole lot about it,” Sallee said. “For them, it’s easier to say ‘yeah, we’re 7-7.’ It rolls off the tongue a little better.” The team’s record isn’t the only thing rolling. Much like last year’s team, Ball State is finding its rhythm as it enters Mid-American Conference play. A 55-31 win over Kent State on Sunday improved Ball State’s MAC record to 2-1. “There’s a little bit of a feel [similar]

to how we got better last season... and here we go again,” Sallee said. “As the season has progressed you see us getting better.” Last season, Ball State entered conference play with a 3-10 record. An immediate turnaround led to a 12-4 record in league play and a spot in the Women’s National Invitational Tournament. Sallee said early January is the time when teams should be learning their roles, hitting shots and playing good team basketball. Now, for a second year in a row, that looks to be the case for the Cardinals. On Saturday, Ball Sate’s defensive efforts led to a physical, scrappy win over Kent State. The Cardinals shot 13-of-46 from the floor, hitting just one more field goal than the Golden Eagles. Though shooting has improved in recent games, a poor performance forced the team to rely on its defensive discipline against Kent State. Sallee was glad to see the team maintain its focus through adversity.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
Free throws play key factor during win Foul shot points provide offense, make large impact ANDI TOLENTINO STAFF REPORTER | altolentino@bsu.edu After not shooting well from the free-throw line and only hitting 18 out of 33 shots when playing against Eastern Michigan last week, the women’s basketball team had a stronger showing from the line in this week’s game against Kent State. Free throws were a large part of the game, having contributed
25 points to the 31-55 win over Kent State. Without those free throws, the Cardinals would have had a tighter game with a score of 30-26. Throughout the game, the Cardinals were sent to the line 16 times with a total of 32 shots, making 25 of them, to give the team a 78 percent on the free-throw line. “When getting to the freethrow line that many times, we got to make those free throws so those aren’t empty possessions,” Head coach Brady Sallee said. “Those are big for us, we play to get to the free-throw line.”
Players that were sent to the line made nearly, all of their shots, only missing a few. Senior guard Brandy Woody and junior Brittany Carter were both sent to the line four times during the game, each capitalizing on their shots.. Woody went 7-8 and Carter went 6-8 on the free-throw line. When asked if free throws were something the girls have been working on more in practice, Sallee said it was not something he was worried about since the girls have been shooting well throughout the season. “I know the team I’ve got. They didn’t like the way they
shot [against Eastern Michigan], so they got in the gym and worked on it,” Sallee said. “They’re a group who wants to make them.” Ball State’s sole loss in its last four games came against Akron where the team attempted 25 free throws. The second-lowest total attempts over that stretch was 28 against IPFW. All throughout the first half, the girls were 8-8 on the line and could have sealed up the game by a larger lead in the second half, but shots were being missed at the line. Despite the late misses, Sallee couldn’t be more pleased
with going to the free-throw line 32 times. “Usually the tougher, more aggressive team is going to be the one who shoots the [most] free throws.” Sallee said. Though Ball State had a
successful day at the free-throw line against Kent State, which helped them secure the victory, Sallee still looks forward to seeing improvement. “I’m the guy who focuses on the seven we miss,” he said.

The first half was low scoring. Ball State went into the locker room holding a 21-10 lead, a point where Sallee said it could have been easy to lose focus. “It would have been easy to go in and pout because you only have 21 points,” Sallee said. “When you look at the scoreboard and you lead by double digits because of your defensive effort, I think these kids understand how hard we work at that end of it.” Sophomore guard Nathalie Fontaine, though not the team’s best defender, said playing physical basketball is important. She said players don’t want to see themselves make mistakes on film the next day. But apart from dreading the mistakes that might come up during film sessions, looking ahead isn’t an issue. “Like [Sallee] says, we’re 1-0 today. It’s always winning the next game that matters,” she said. Sallee is pleased with the team’s current level of play.

The Falcons, another team Sallee expects to be very physical, are 13-2 on the season, with a 3-0 mark in MAC play. Tonight’s game will serve as good preparation for the Falcons, who Sallee said won’t give up an easy possession. But if the team’s early MAC play is of any indicator, the Cardinals will be ready. “We’re starting to look like the team I thought we could,” Sallee said. “The ball is rolling.”

Tyler Varnau doesn’t buy beer, he brews it. The senior journalism graphics major, is the president of the fledgling student organization Ball State Homebrew Club. The club achieved official approval last spring, but has not been active until this year, said Varnau. He chills, ferments and bottles a new batch every two weeks in his kitchen and has brewed a total of 25 gallons of beer in his lifetime. So far, the club consists solely of Varnau and vice president Josh Bertsch who share a passion for the art of home-brewing. Varnau dove headfirst into the hobby as soon as home-brewing was legally permitted in May 2013: the month he turned 21. His club is a part of a national trend; the number of craft breweries in the nation has increased from eight in 1980 to 1,500 planned or established breweries as of June 2013, according to the Brewers Association.

Tyler Varnau, a senior journalism graphics major, and his friend Kyle Little pour 5.5 gallons of water into a pot to heat. This is the first step for their home-brewing process.
Upon inheriting the club, Varnau contacted Bertsch, a senior biology major to help bring it to life. “Since I love brewing so much, it was easy to see the need for a club like this at Ball State,” Bertsch said. “There had to be others out there with the same interest as we do.” Gaither, who has brewed his own alcoholic concoctions since 2007, also shared his excitement of
being involved with the club. “I have faculty advised other clubs before, but this is the first one that is really strongly related to a personal interest of my own, “ he said. As an unseasoned organization, Varnau only has a rudimentary blueprint for the club. He plans to host two meetings a month and hopes to fit in discussions about home-brewing.

general steps: extreme sanitization of the brew area; boiling water, adding in extracts and hops; cooling the mix; adding wort—a mixture of yeast; fermentation; bottling and finally letting the product mature and carbonate. It can take weeks to months from the start to when the brewer can actually enjoy their product. Varnau’s hobby expands past just being an idle past time. He hopes to obtain a degree in brewing and one day own his own brewery. The Ball State Homebrew Club would be a healthy addition to a resume if Varnau attempts to further his goals, but he sees the organization as more than that. “I just wanted to have people who I could actually talk to about brewing and annoy them with my beer snobbishness,” he said.

Amy Poehler, Tina Fey hosted Golden Globes success Historical drama, con-artist comedy dominate in awards | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES- Amy Poehler made out with Bono, Tina Fey mocked George Clooney’s taste in women and Matt Damon emerged, bizarrely, as the night’s theme. But at the end of a madcap Golden Globes (Fey toasted it as “the beautiful mess we hoped it would be”), the major honors soberly ended up with the favorites. David O. Russell’s conartist caper “American Hustle” led with three awards, including best film comedy. And despite missing out in the other six categories it was nominated in, the unflinching historical drama “12 Years a Slave” concluded the
night as best film drama. “A little bit in shock,” said director Steve McQueen, before shrugging the lyrics to the old gospel song sung in the slavery epic: “Roll, Jordan, roll.” Russell’s 1970s Abscam fictionalization “American Hustle” won acting awards for Amy Adams (best actress drama) and Jennifer Lawrence (best supporting actress). Best picture was the only award for “12 Years a Slave,” which came in with seven nominations, tied for the most with “American Hustle.” Leonardo DiCaprio, a ninetime Golden Globe nominee, won his second Globe for best actor in a comedy for his work in “The Wolf of Wall Street.” Alfonso Cuaron won best director for the space odyssey “Gravity,” a worldwide hit and critical favorite.

STEM jobs up 39 percent in Indianapolis City above average state lags behind, Muncie lost jobs | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Indianapolis Business Journal analyzed U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and found Indianapolis had 39 percent more jobs in the STEM fields — science, technology, engineering and math — in 2012 than in 2001. That’s more than double the national growth rate of 17 percent.
But the rest of the state saw an increase of just 10 percent, and at least four areas — Muncie, Terre Haute, Fort Wayne and South Bend-Mishawaka — had fewer STEM jobs in 2012 than in 2001. “Indianapolis is somewhat of a sponge city for the whole region,� said Mark Schill, vice president of research at Praxis Strategy Group, an economic development consultant in North Dakota. Schill said it’s common for high-tech workers to flock to urban areas from smaller communities or move to college
towns, such as Bloomington and Lafayette. In Indiana, Columbus also is a hub because of engine-maker Cummins Inc. But other areas aren’t faring as well. Indiana is still recovering from hits that major manufacturers suffered and put thousands of engineers out of work. The state as a whole also saw the number of computerrelated jobs stagnate in recent years, while it has grown rapidly in Indianapolis. Even with the shortage outside the Indianapolis area, STEM jobs helped offset losses during the recession. STEM
employment increased 4 percent from mid-2009 through 2012, while all other careers were still down 0.1 percent, the IBJ reported. Derek Redelman, vice president for education and workforce policy at the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, said it’s hard to develop government policies that promote STEM fields, because researchers disagree on what jobs qualify. He said government programs, such as an Indiana initiative which gives incentives to four-year state universities
nization will focus on three neighborhoods, seeking to train 40 to 50 citizens per neighborhood with classes starting in February. “People need safety for their mental health,� Coplen said. To further deter criminals, ACP offers participants signs to place in front of homes to advertise that the homeowners possess guns. Jordan Meyer, a senior Sociology major, said he disagreed with the program initially. “At first I thought it was terrifying,� Meyer said. But after he read that the program requires background checks he changed his mind. “If they’re going through the proper channels, it’s fine,� he said. Dylan Vinson, a freshman Spanish education major, said he disagrees with the program. “It’s not exactly the best way to go about things. His inten-
tions are good, but I am not sure giving out guns, even with the training and background checks, will have the effect he wants.� Coplen, though, said people who oppose the program probably don’t understand what the Armed Citizen’s Project does. Despite Coplen’s firm belief, he admits adding guns to neighborhoods isn’t the endall solution to crime. “Armed Citizen’s Project is not the full solution,� Coplen said. “Crime is an accumulation of things. Armed Citizens Project is just one of the solutions.� Brady Hertel, a freshman social studies education and history double major, said he thinks the program could work so long as people are aware of it “If I was a robber and I knew they had a gun, I’d be hesitant to break in,� Hertel said. “As

| CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Coplen grew up in Rochester, Ind. and graduated from Ball State in 2008. He then moved to Houston for graduate school. Coplen said he started the Armed Citizens Project after witnessing the physical and emotional aftermath for a veteran whose house in Houston was burglarized. “It was then I decided I would help him and others in the neighborhood feel safer,� he said. The Armed Citizens Project primarily targets single mothers, people who live alone and others who may experience difficulty defending themselves. The project is offering guns to as many as 400 residences in a community near Houston that had a total of 107 home invasions in 2012. In Indianapolis, the orga-

long as they stay true to the background checks and don’t give guns to criminals, I can see it preventing some crime.� In the future, Coplen would like to bring the Armed Citizens Project to universities through student outreach, including Ball State. “I loved my time at Ball State,� said Coplen. “Starting maybe a student group there would be great.� Coplen said after the program’s third year, he will gather information about crime in the participating neighborhoods and publish the results.

The state also needs more rank-and-file factory workers with technical certifications, even though they often don’t count as STEM, he said. Many manufacturers say they can’t find enough qualified candidates to fill openings for skilled workers. “That is the area that Indiana particularly struggles in,� Redelman said. “Not only are we not at the national average, we’re below the Midwest
