Third bar closes in Village DJ says D Luxe closed due to lack of consistent business TAYLOR WEDDLE STAFF REPORTER | tcweddle@bsu.edu

‘We will only become

BETTER

After a year-and-a-half of being one of the resident DJs at D Luxe Bar, Austin Antoni, a senior business administration major, said he won’t be able to perform there anymore since the bar closed. He said as of now, the Village bar has no plans to try to reopen later on. Antoni said D Luxe closed for reasons similar to Dill Street Bar and The Locker Room – inconsistent business. As a resident DJ, he was in charge of the music, performance and making sure potential new DJs were eligible for the job. Antoni began August of his junior year. The owner, Matt Hurst, has not publicly commented on the matter or returned any phone calls. “It’s tough, … especially in a college that is so groundbreaking and likes to take risks and do incredible things. That is what makes Ball State amazing,” Antoni said. “But while we’re doing these innovative and creative things, we need to hold on to what made us good in the first place.” In December, when Dill Street and The Locker Room had officially closed, Hurst said he was not planning to close along with the other bars. At the time, Hurst also said closing bars in the Village would give students fewer choices when they go out.

hen the 2015 season began, the Ball State softball team was looking to ride the arms of juniors Nicole Steinbach and Kelsey Schifferdecker. Schifferdecker was injured early in the season and forced to miss time, however. But with Steinbach’s 11 wins on the season and the return of Schifferdecker last week, Ball State has won seven of its last eight games and sits alone atop the Mid-American Conference West Division. “We finally got [Schifferdecker] some time, and now we are just going to take it slow and watch how she performs and keep letting her ease back,” head coach Tyra Perry said. “But we aren’t sure when she could start again.”

BALL STATE TO RECEIVE CREDIT REPORT SOON Rating could affect university’s ability to borrow money ALAN HOVORKA CHIEF REPORTER | afhovorka@bsu.edu

Ball State will soon get feedback of how well it is doing financially, which can affect how much money the university can

borrow and pay back. Financial services and credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s is currently conducting a credit rating report for Ball State. The ratings help investors understand how well an institution can pay back debt. The agency conducts credit reports on an annual basis or when a specific event occurs, said Olayinka Fadahunsi, communications manager for S&P.

Indiana released its annual audit report of the university in late March. The report found no flaws with the university even though Ball State announced it was the victim of a $13.1 million loss from fraud in the summer of 2014. In 2013, the university earned an AA- credit rating, the highest of all MAC schools. Indiana and Purdue Universities held a credit rating of AA+. Each credit rating tells how

strong an investment is. AAA to A is the high investment category and represents strong ability to pay back debt. The average credit rating for public universities in 2013 was A+. Ball State’s rating is above this figure. Eastern Michigan University was rated at BBB+ and is the lowest rating in the MAC.

Modern-day knowledge of the Holocaust comes from books or history classes, but Holocaust survivor Martha Raviv’s knowledge comes from experience. Today, Raviv will be in Art and Journalism Building Room 175 to share her story with students. Raviv, originally from Austria, spent three months in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp with her mother. Her father died in Buchenwald concentration camp, almost 185 miles away from the concentration camp that held the rest of his family. Ball State’s Jewish Studies Program and other university organizations, including the Office of the Provost, Honors College and the Center for Peace and Conflict Studies, organized the event as part of the annual Yom Hashoa, or Holocaust Remembrance Day. Martha Raviv Francine Friedman, the director of the Jewish Studies Program, said the program has been responsible for Ball State’s Yom Hashoa commemoration for two decades. Friedman stressed the weight of the commemoration and Ball State’s part in its observance. THE PULSE OF BALL STATE

veryone knows that Image Comics has become a powerful force in the world of comic books. Some of the strangest and most unique comic ideas are constantly being released by the publisher. One of the most unique to come out as of late is “Wayward,” the perfect combination of Western comic book formatting and manga-based storytelling. It might be difficult to imagine something like that working out, but it definitely does. However, there are definitely a few bumps along the way. “Wayward” follows Rori Lane, a Japanese-Irish teenager with the ability to see paths or threads to people or areas of significance. Following her parents’ divorce, she spent a year dealing with her father before deciding to live in Japan with her mom and find a sense of normalcy. Within hours, any chance of that happening is eliminated, as she is attacked by turtle creatures and encounters Ayane, a nimble girl who can take the form of a cat. After meeting her, the follow-

ing days rush downhill as Rori encounters even more strange teenagers and terrifying monsters from Japanese mythology. When I say rush, I really do mean rush. The escalation of events in the book seems way too sudden for any rea-

sonable story. In every new issue of the book, Rori uses her abilities to find new supernatural beings hiding in the streets of Tokyo. What’s stranger is that no matter what happens, she barely questions anything. She just happens upon a bunch of teenagers with superpowers like hers and acts like it’s something she encounters every day. As far as I can tell, she has no experience with powers but her own, so you’d think she’d have a bit more of a reaction than, “Hey, I met all these kids; now we’re a team or something.” Rori’s powers are a huge frustration as well. There’s really no way to define them. It’s evident that she has the power to see paths or threads to areas of significance, but she also has the ability to write some sort of kanji to make stuff happen. Then there are parts where she has increased strength and speed. Obviously, her role as the protagonist means she’ll have formidable powers. But it gets confusing when it’s hard to tell exactly

what she can do. Despite those flaws, there is a lot to like about “Wayward.” Rori has strong character potential with what seems to be a rough backstory that even involves selfharm. It will be interesting to see how that comes into play in the future. The secondary characters are a lot of fun as well, even though they do fall into manga/anime tropes. Even though it is somewhat rushed, the story of “Wayward” is solid. There’s a lot of intrigue and mystery in Rori’s backstory, especially once it’s established that her mom is more than an ordinary seamstress. However, with the running around and constant addition of new characters and situations, it feels like the story has too many plots going on. Hopefully, the unnamed antagonist introduced at the end of the book will add a little more focus for Rori and her tale. It’s also worth noting that the cover art is superb. Every single cover is beauti-

fully drawn and perfectly captures the essence of the following pages. The absolute best part of the book are the references to Japanese lore. There is a large variety of monsters strewn throughout the book, from kitsune to human spirits, that are all expertly drawn. If you don’t know what any of the monsters you see are, there is an appendix dedicated to them in the back of the book that gives a history of each monster. Reading the appendix isn’t necessary to understand the book, but it’s a nice touch that prevents extra research, making the book more accessible. “Wayward” starts out rocky, but that can be said for the first entry in any series. When there’s a huge story to lay out, it’s easy to want to get the high-level exposition out of the way to get to the meat. But now that the stage is set, the series has a strong opportunity to tell a powerful story in the same league as “Y: The Last Man” or “Locke and Key.”

| CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 The credit review process looks at the demand for the university and its management. In this case, S&P looks for factors such as if the university has a stable management and a strategic plan. The other part of the review process looks at the university’s financial profile and how it handles its finances. When an institution’s credit rating increases or decreases, it affects the interest rate the university pays on bonds bought by investors. The higher the rating, the lower the interest rate, said Bianca GaytanBurrell, director of the higher education group at S&P. It is unknown how large of a role the $13.1 million fraud will have on Ball State’s upcoming report, Gaytan-Burrell said. The financial agency looks at several factors to determine credit ratings. “There is just not one thing that goes into a rating that can make or break a credit rating,” Gaytan-

Burrell said. Ball State was alerted of a fraud in 2011 that occurred in 2008 and 2010 that totaled $13.1 million. The fraud took place when Gale Prizevoits, former director of cash and investments, violated university policy and made several high-risk investments without telling anyone. She tried to alter records to conceal the losses and fraud from university audits. She was fired Oct. 24, 2011. The university recovered $542,295 out of the $13.1 million. The State of Indiana has launched a criminal investigation on the fraud, but a decision has not been made to prosecute Prizevoits. Shortly after the announcement of the fraud last summer, Ball State hired Deborah Daniels of Krieg DeVault to review its internal controls. She worked with Crowe Horwath, an accounting firm, to conduct her investigation. Ball State made several changes in early 2015 to its auditing procedure and increased its au-

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Prosecutors charged a white reserve sheriff’s deputy with manslaughter Monday in the death of a black man who was fatally shot as he lay on the ground at the officer’s feet. The sheriff’s office has said that Robert Bates, a 73-yearold insurance executive who was volunteering on an undercover operation in Tulsa, mistakenly pulled out his handgun instead of his stun gun and shot the suspect as he struggled with deputies. Bates was charged with second-degree manslaughter involving “culpable negligence” for the April 2 death of Eric Harris, 44. A video of the incident, shot by deputies with sunglass cameras and released Friday at the request of the victim’s family, shows a deputy chase and tackle Harris, who they said tried to sell an illegal gun to an undercover officer.

As the deputy subdues Harris on the ground, a gunshot rings out and a man says: “Oh, I shot him. I’m sorry.” Harris screams: “He shot me. Oh, my God,” and a deputy replies: “You f---ing ran. Shut the f--- up.” Harris was treated by medics at the scene and died in a Tulsa hospital. The family said in a statement that it was “saddened, shocked, confused and disturbed.” “Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of all of this is the inhumane and malicious treatment of [Harris] after he was shot,” the family wrote. “These deputies treated [Harris] as less than human. They treated [Harris] as if his life had no value.” At a news conference on Monday, Andre Harris, the victim’s brother, said he does not believe the shooting was racially motivated.

Team loses 1st series to Kent State 3-0 Cardinals scoreless in weekend games after 16 straight wins |

ERIC KUZNAR STAFF REPORTER @EKunzar

After winning 16 consecutive series, the Ball State baseball team fell twice in three games at Kent State over the weekend. Despite seeing his team’s streak end, Ball State head coach Rich Maloney continues to look at the bigger picture. “We have the whole season ahead of us,” Maloney “We still have big series coming up with Central Michigan and Toledo.” In its first game against Kent State—a 3-0 loss—Ball State was held scoreless for just the second time this season. The only other team that had managed it prior was Big Ten opponent Illinois. Zach Plesac threw a complete game in the first contest, allowing three earned runs in eight innings of work. Ball State managed doubledigit hits once in the series, totaling 10 in the third matchup on Sunday. A late-game comeback fell just short as well, as the Cardinals scored five runs on three hits in the ninth after entering the inning down 11-2. “We got to see [Kent State’s closer Zach Willeman] for the first time today,” Maloney said. “We were able to get five runs off of him, which was good to see.” Ball State was outhit 23-28 in the series, allowing 15 hits

Junior pitcher Nicole Steinbach stepped up to the mound after fellow junior pitcher Kelsey Schifferdecker was out with an injury early in the season. Steinbach leads the team with 136.1 innings pitched this season and two complete-game shutouts.

SOFTBALL:

| CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Last season, Schifferdecker finished the season with a 15-6 record and team-best 3.36 earned run average. She trailed only Steinbach with 139.2 innings pitched. Schifferdecker’s first appearance back from injury came in an inning of relief behind Steinbach against Eastern Illinois last Tuesday, striking out the first batter she saw. Steinbach leads the staff with 136.1 innings pitched this season. She has thrown two complete-game shutouts in her last two starts, and has won her last five starts overall. “I’ve been working a lot with our pitching coach Kassie Stanfill, toolboxing and working on different pitches,” Steinbach said. Ball State also shut out Bowling Green on Sunday in a 9-0 victory. Freshman Carolyn Wilmes started the game, pitching 4.2 innings in the win. Wilmes has a 6-5 record this season with a 4.91 earned run average in 11 starts.

She has thrown the second-most innings on the team due to Schifferdecker’s missed time. “[Wilmes] has been pitching really well and growing fast, and handling the workload very well for a freshman,” Perry said. Sophomore Jocelyn Rivera pitched 0.1 innings in relief in Wilmes’ last start, throwing only one pitch to get the out. Rivera has already exceeded her 2014 innings total with 34.2 this season. Adding Schifferdecker to a rotation with Steinbach, Wilmes and Rivera could help improve the staff heading into the last part of the season. Although there is experience, the rotation for the Cardinals is young. Junior Sammi Cowger and sophomore Amanda Arnett have also pitched for the Cardinals this season. Steinbach looks for the group to make an impact not only this season, but in the future as well. “The future looks good for Ball State’s pitching,” Steinbach said. “With [Schifferdecker] coming back, and our constant practice and work on our pitching, we will only become better and stronger.”

five, with two RBIs and a run scored in the series finale. “The chance we will play [Kent State] in the postseason is pretty good,” Maloney said. “Last year we beat them all three times we played them in the regular season, and then they beat us in the postseason.” Ball State hosts Butler at 3 p.m. Wednesday at Ball Diamond, returning home the same day.

After a 1-1 weekend, the Ball State men’s volleyball team finished the regular season with a 13-15 overall record and a 6-10 record in the Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association. Despite the losing record, head coach Joel Walton is looking for improvement in his team as the MIVA Tournament approaches. “We knew this year was going to be a challenge, and we knew that we had to get our team better in a lot of different areas,” Walton said. “We’ve seen good improvement, and we’ve seen our guys struggle to play consistently. And that’s what’s going to be crucial in these last few weeks of the season.” Ball State began the season on a high note, starting out 7-1. The Cardinals concluded the first half of the season with a 9-5 record. This included wins over nationally-ranked Penn State and Ohio State. Consistency issues and injuries plagued Ball State in the second half of its season, however. The team finished with a 4-10 record in the final 14 matches of the season, which included a six-match losing streak. Several starters suffered injuries for the Cardinals down the stretch. Junior Marcin Niemczewski, seniors Matt Sutherland and Shane Witmer and freshman Matt Walsh were all forced to miss time at some point due to various injuries. Walton said the time leading up to the MIVA Tournament is a valuable time to rest players. “I think it is an opportunity for us to train and intermingle some opportunities to take some days off,” Walton said. “It’s going to be important for our guys to rest their bodies and help out the soreness and tiredness that they’ve been feeling throughout the end of this season.” The Cardinals are the lone MIVA team to finish their regular season, according to the league’s schedule. While it is uncertain what seed it will get in the tournament, Ball State is currently sixth in the league standings. There is a possibility of a three-way tie if Quincy defeats Lindenwood on Friday. – STAFF REPORTS

Hack part of trend targeting universities Attorney General official addresses concerns about Anthem information heist |

ALAN HOVORKA CHIEF REPORTER afhovorka@bsu.edu

Ball State employees affected by the recent rash of identify thefts and income tax fraud—at least 140 in number—are part of a larger national trend, a government official with the Indiana Attorney General’s Office said. During his April 8 visit to Ball State, Rich Bramer, director of the Indiana Attorney General’s consumer protection division, addressed concerns about the recent accounts of income tax fraud facing Ball State employees with a presentation on how to protect against it and what to do if affected. Bramer said Ball State employees are part of a growing trend among colleges and universities. “[There is a] widespread tendency to steal university employee personal information across the nation,” Bramer said. Bramer said after observing the national trend he plans to meet with his colleagues in other states and take it to the federal level. “I am supposed to meet with a representative of FBI’s cybercrime task force some time next week,” he said. “I am going to mention it to them and make sure it is on their radar.” Bramer rattled off several examples of other universities experiencing smaller or greater instances of income tax fraud, including the University of Iowa and Western Kentucky University. Both universities reported employees experiencing fraudulent tax returns. University of Iowa has had more than 200 employees affected, whereas Western Kentucky has had more than 50. He also mentioned examples at Seminole State College, James Madison University and Auburn University. Of all the institutions Bramer and his office found in their research, most of the instances occurred within the past two years. Last year, the University of Northern Iowa had about 240 employees affected by income tax fraud. “I think any reasonable person would say that when over 30 colleges and universities over the last two years have had data breaches occur, that’s a trend,” he said. Bramer said universities are being targeted because of the ease of access to personal information of a large number of people. “Universities and colleges are a very popular place to have a breach ... because there are very few places where you can get good addresses and social security

ANTHEM BREACH

FRAUD TIMELINE

•A nthem announced it was the victim of a personal information breach on Feb. 5. About 78.8 million people were affected, which includes about 4.5 million Hoosiers.

JAN. 29 Anthem, the United States’ second-largest health care employer and Ball State’s insurer, was the victim of a cyber attack in which hackers accessed the Blue Cross Blue Shield insurer’s health insurance database, which contains the personal information for as many as 80 million people.

•T he investigation has concluded that the breach occurred due to a compromised login and password, not a hack of Anthem’s cyber security system. Anthem told Ball State the login information was probably compromised because of a phishing scam, said Bernard Hannon, Ball State’s vice president for business affairs and treasurer. •A nthem has the personal information for about 8,000 Ball State employees and their dependents. •A nthem does not know what information was compromised and said to assume that it all had been stolen. •T he suspect of the investigation is not in the U.S. •B all State has requested that Anthem come to the university to visit and answer questions. A date has not been set up. Since Feb. 5, the university has sent out six emails regarding the breach. •A nthem is providing free identity and credit monitoring through AllClear ID for two years. However, faculty senators were concerned with what happens if they experience an identity theft after the two-year period because the breach leaked their information and those of their dependents. Hannon said the university shares their concerns and has spoken with Anthem about possibly extending the two-year coverage. numbers for large masses of people,” Bramer said. “Universities and colleges have large bodies of [students], as well having large bodies of employees — they are prime targets to fraudsters.” Since 2014, more than 30 higher education institutions have been targets of data breaches, which can lead to identity theft and tax fraud. Indiana University was the target of a data breach in 2014 that exposed 146,000 students and recent graduates. There were five data breaches at universities in 2014 that were larger than the Sony breach in December 2014, according to The Associated Press.

2016 PRESIDENTAL ELECTIONS

FEB. 6 In a press release from the university, Bernard Hannon, vice president for business affairs and treasurer, said Anthem informed the university that the health insurer’s member information was accessed and that Ball State employees could be included. FEB. 9 Ball State sent out an email notifying faculty and staff that any email regarding their Anthem accounts is not from the company. These emails have been fishing for personal information, such as credit card or banking information, or asking employees to sign up for free credit monitoring. FEB. 13 Anthem Inc. announced suspicious activity on the company’s network beginning in December 2014, which resulted in the attack that potentially compromised Ball State employees’ private, personal information. APRIL 6 Ball State announced it would host three forums in April on the income tax fraud, identity theft and the data breach. APRIL 8 A representative from the Indiana Attorney General’s Office came to the university to answer questions about the income tax fraud and Anthem Medical breach. SOURCE: Staff reports

Health insurance company Anthem, Inc. announced Feb. 4 it was the victim of a security breach that affected about 80 million people. Anthem holds the personal information of 8,000 Ball State employees and their dependents. The income tax frauds and identity thefts have not been linked to the Anthem breach, Bernard Hannon, vice president for business affairs, said.

RUBIO ANNOUNCES PRESIDENTIAL RUN MIAMI (AP) — Sen. Marco Rubio said the White House is not reserved for the rich and powerful, and he, the son of a bartender and a maid, has the same chance to serve as those who come from power and privilege. Rubio is launching his Republican presidential campaign in Miami, Fla. He’s telling supporters that someone with this background can still have a fair shake in America. His parents are Cuban immigrants. Rubio’s comments are a contrast to two members of political dynasties who are likely rivals: Hillary Rodham Clinton, a Democrat and former secretary of state; and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, a Republican. Rubio is launching his campaign at Freedom Tower, where those fleeing Cuba in the 1960s and 1970s met U.S. officials. –
