TRIGGER WARNINGS

A trigger warning is used to let people know about something that is possibly triggering in a book, a film and other artwork or writings. Triggering material may bring up memories of a past trauma and can disrupt learning and lead to further harm.

As professors begin updating their course calendars and syllabuses, faculty and students at a few universities are adding trigger warnings to protect victims of violence and abuse from being forced to relive the experience in the classroom. The Associated Student Senate at the University of California Santa Barbara recently issued a resolution to mandate warning students when a class will include topics like rape, sexual assault, suicide and graphic violence. Trigger warnings are given to prevent victims of past trauma from being exposed to material that may bring up memories of the experience. The memories not only disrupt their learning

but can lead to further harm. “These particularly affect students if material is being read in the classroom or a film is being screened, as the student cannot choose to stop being exposed to the material,” the resolution reads. UC Santa Barbara isn’t the only school looking at these warnings. Oberlin College in Ohio published a sexual offense resource guide for its faculty last year that included a section titled “understand trigger, avoid unnecessary triggers and provide trigger warnings.” The guide urged professors to remove trigger material when it does not directly contribute to the class.

That is what a student should do — educate their professors about how to be better.

Ball State pitcher Zach Plesac continues to be honored for his first collegiate season. On Monday, the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association named Plesac to its Freshman All-America First Team. He was one of three relief pitchers nationally to receive the honor. Plesac was recently named the Collegiate Baseball National Freshman Pitcher of the Year and to the Collegiate Baseball Louisville Slugger All-America Third Team. The right-hander finished the season ranked fourth in the nation with a 12-2 record. He also tallied six saves, while boasting a 2.11 ERA and striking out 67 batters in 85.1 innings. Plesac was named as the Mid-American Conference Freshman Pitcher of the Year and received First Team All-MAC after helping guide the Cardinals to the conference regular season title.

A charging station located in the L.A. Pittenger Student Center was added to the first floor Tuesday. It has eight stations for iPhone 4s and 5s and Androids and two stations for tablets.

Forgetting a charger at home is one less thing to worry about. The L.A. Pittenger Student Center installed a new goCharge station near the Tally entrance Tuesday. The station offers 10 individual lockers that allow users to charge devices for free. Eight of the lockers are for Androids and iPhones and two lockers are for tablets. For iPhones, the iPhone 4 chargers are on the left side and the iPhone 5 chargers are on the right side. Each locker is protected with a user-made, fourdigit code, allowing users to plug in their device and leave it without fear of it being stolen. Travis Peters, Student Center assistant director for operations, said the station is already being used. “I went down during orientation and eight of the 10 stations were being used,” he said. “Day one with little publication, it was being utilized quite a bit and I hope that is how it is [in the future].” He said the department decided to purchase the $4,850 machine after seeing them in use at a conference at the University of Cincinnati. However, the idea to put phone charging machines on campus was first popularized when Cardinal United ran for Student Government Association executive slate in 2013. Adding charging stations to Bracken Library and other locations was one of the slate’s platform points, but the slate lost the election. The Student Center chose the goCharge station because it offered a security aspect as opposed to other open stations. “They are a really nice thing to have in a day and age where everyone is connected to their phones,” Peters said. “[It’s] a safe place to charge their phone.”

Study says most university presidents oppose concealed handguns on campus 91 percent of leaders put accidental shooting of students as concern HOVORKA CHIEF REPORTER | ALAN afhovorka@bsu.edu A Ball State study found 95 percent of university presidents oppose concealed handguns on campus with 91 percent citing accidental shootings of students as the primary concern for their opposition. At least 37 school shootings have occurred so far in 2014. The most recent shooting occurred at a high school in Oregon on Tuesday. In the past few weeks alone, there have been multiple ones,

However, the study maintains the college campus is the safest place for college students. “The statement we made might look as an exaggeration, but if you look at the numbers, it’s not,” said study conductor Jagdish Khubchandani, an assistant professor of community health education. The homicide rate for ages 17 to 29 is 200 times greater in the general population than on college campuses, the study shows. The study also shows students already face numerous issues on campus.

WORLD CUP Brazil hosts world’s biggest sports event, 20th international tournament starts today

WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIPS Brazil

Despite the protests and controversy surrounding this year’s World Cup in Brazil, the tournament starts today. The soccer championship can be hard to follow for people who are not familiar with the format. Take a look at the basics of World Cup tournament play and check out the rich history and records of the 19 previous World Cups.

4 SAO PAULO — American fans decked out in red, white and blue watched their team’s lone public training session in Brazil, cheering and seeking autographs. Jurgen Klinsmann maintains they shouldn’t expect the U.S. to lift soccer’s top trophy for the first time July 13, even if that stance upsets some. “I think for us now, talking about winning a World Cup is just not realistic,” the American coach said Wednesday during his first news conference in Brazil before the tournament. “First, we’ve got to make it through the group. So let’s stay with our feet on the ground and say let’s get that group first done, and then the sky is the limit.” The Americans open Monday

against Ghana, the team that eliminated them from the last two World Cups, then play No. 4 Portugal and FIFA Player of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo. They close group play against threetime champion Germany, the world’s second-ranked team. Oddsmakers peg the U.S. chances of winning the title at 250-1, up from 60-1 before December’s draw. “I’ll be at the Natal game,” Liliana Ayalde, the U.S. ambassador to Brazil, said. “I’ll be in Manaus. And I’ll also be in Recife 3— and, hopefully, the next stage.” Klinsmann, who has lived in Orange Country, Calif., for most of the last 16 years, was accused by some commentators of having an un-American mentality. “If it’s now American or not American, 3I don’t know,” he said. “You can correct me however you want.” Mix Diskerud, the 23-yearold midfielder with a Norwegian father and Arizonan mother, took Klinsmann’s re-

marks as a challenge. “That’s an opportunity for us to prove him wrong,” he said. Midfielder Alejandro Bedoya thought it was a meaningless debate. “The media, when they get a chance to get a hold of anything, they’ll get it going,” he said. “He’s been optimistic with us since Day One, and there’s nothing short of confidence in him and his belief in us.” Only eight nations have won the World Cup, all from Europe and South America. Brazil has a record five titles, followed by Italy with four, Germany with three, Argentina and Uruguay with two each and England, France and Spain with one apiece. The Americans enter ranked 13th, nine below their record high in April 2006. Their best World Cup finish was at the first tournament, when they reached the semifinals in 1930. This is the seventh straight World Cup appearance for the Americans, who failed to qualify from 1950-1990.

Cantor’s loss means change for GOP House leadership

Tea party candidate beats majority leader in Virginia primary | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — Repudiated at the polls, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor announced Wednesday that he will resign his leadership post at the end of next month, clearing the way for a potentially disruptive Republican shake-up just before midterm elections with control of Congress at stake. Cantor informed fellow Republicans of his intentions at an emotional closed-door meeting, then made his public announcement at a news conference where he appeared upbeat, all less than 24 hours after losing Virginia’s GOP primary election to David Brat, a little-known and underfunded rival backed by tea party groups. Lawmakers in both parties said Cantor’s defeat and the prospect of a change within the Republican high command probably signal the demise of immigration legislation along the lines President Barack Obama is seeking and will also have a negative impact on the balance of his second-term agenda. Even so, Obama disputed the notion that Cantor’s surprise loss crushed the prospects of House Republican leaders bringing an immigration bill to the floor this year. Addressing Democratic donors in Massachusetts, Obama rejected what he called “conventional wisdom” proffered by Washington pundits. “I fundamentally reject that

Rep. Eric Cantor, who will retire, arrives at the U.S. Capitol for a meeting between President Barack Obama and House Republicans on March 13, 2013, in Washington, D.C. Cantor will resign his leadership post at the end of next month after losing to David Brat from the tea party.

and I will tell the speaker of the House he needs to reject it,” Obama said. Cantor also has been deeply involved in GOP attempts to develop an alternative to the health care law that Republicans want to repeal. Fellow Republicans set leadership elections for June 19, assuring that any campaigning would be brief. Even before Cantor’s announcement, jockeying had broken out among fellow Republicans eager to move up the House leadership ladder — or establish a foothold on it. Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California, the party whip and third-ranking leader, informed fellow Republicans he intend-

ed to run to succeed Cantor. Rep. Pete Sessions of Texas also made clear his interest, but fellow Texan Jeb Hensarling eyed a candidacy, as well, and the state’s delegation was working to prevent any intramural competition. Rep. Peter Roskam of Illinois, the chief deputy whip, and Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana quickly jumped into the expected race to succeed McCarthy. Cantor, 51, sounded like anything but a man ready to retire from politics, saying he will serve out his term and be active this fall for Republican candidates. “What divides Republicans pales in comparison to what

she includes trigger warnings in her classroom after she watched other professors doing it and after watching a student become affected by a movie she showed in class. Rosser was showing “Finding Angela Shelton,” a documentary that has a scene where the subject confronts her father about sexually abusing her when she was young. “One of my students came up to me later and said, ‘You should have given me a trigger warning,’” she said. The student told her that the incest in the movie triggered her, and had the student received a trigger warning, she wouldn’t have watched it. Rosser said the student did exactly what she should have done: confronted her. “That is what a student should do — educate their professors about how to be better,” she said. “I am better at giving

trigger warnings because of that student.” Patrick Collier, a professor of English, said the discussion is tricky. On one hand, a professor should protect students that may experience severe psychological distress as a reaction to class material. However, he doesn’t want to see a system that is constantly protecting everyone from anything unpleasant. “It’s important for students to have their views of the world — and their views of what art does — shaken up periodically,” he said. “Some of the most important and lasting kinds of learning experiences are not entirely pleasurable experiences.” Collier, who teaches a film studies course and several literature studies courses, said a lot of works rely on disturbing images for their meaning and furthermore, they often rely on surprise for aesthetic effect. While he doesn’t include for-

divides us as conservatives from the left and their Democratic allies,” he said. Accused by tea party critics of being too accommodating on immigration and other issues, and criticized by Democrats for being inflexible, Cantor said he had struck the right balance. “I think that this town should be about trying to strike common ground,” he said. But one Republican said he feared the effects of Cantor’s defeat could be debilitating for the party and the government. Interviewed on MSNBC, Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., said he was worried that Cantor’s stunning loss may lead to even more congressional gridlock. Asked if he thought immigration legislation was dead, he replied, “I’m concerned that Ted Cruz supporters, Rand Paul supporters, are going to use this as an excuse to shut down the government. “This is not conservatism to me,” King said. “Shutting down the government is not being conservative.” The resignation would mark a swift end to a quick rise to power for Cantor, 51, who was elected to Congress in 2000, was appointed to the leadership two years later, and then rose steadily to become the second-most powerful Republican in the House. Brat campaigned as a foe of immigration legislation, and said Cantor was likely to help immigrants living in the United States illegally gain amnesty if given a new term in the House. Brat begins the fall campaign as a decided favorite in the race against Democratic rival Jack Trammell in a solidly Republican district.

WARNINGS: Professor says students need protection from severe distress, challenge | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 This request to remove material is what led several faculty to push back against trigger warnings and eventually, the guide was removed. Some professors opposed the policy because it goes against the very essence of a college education — challenging students, according to the Oberlin Review. “There’s a sort of irritated professorial response and an impatient one that would say something like, ‘My job is your discomfort,’” DeSales Harrison, associate professor of English at Oberlin College, told the Oberlin Review. “But that’s what I’m here for, and in some ways, that’s what you’re here for, for me; we’re all supposed to be on edge.” At Ball State, professors are left free to determine whether they will include trigger warnings in their courses. Julee Rosser, a women’s and gender studies instructor, said

AT OTHER UNIVERSITIES UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SANTA BARBARA:

The student government created a proposal to require trigger warnings in classes that contain potentially disturbing content. OBERLIN COLLEGE:

The university published a guide for professors that asked them to consider removing disturbing classroom materials like books and films and to issue trigger warnings. mal trigger warnings when prepping students for disturbing material, he said he does warn students in a way that doesn’t overly skew the work. It’s just common sense, he said. For students who cannot experience a film or a novel because of violent content, Collier works around that student’s need, finding other ways to make up the credit. But he said outright cutting

disturbing content from a class would have robbed at least one student of a critical learning experience. A student of Collier’s was reading The Crisis, the NAACP’s magazine, which had an article discussing the lynching of black people. The student had never heard of lynching and was upset by the information. The student was driven to tears when discussing the subject in Collier’s office. The student then chose to do a research assignment on The Crisis to learn more. “This is an example, to me, of the kind of really deep, emotionally based learning that can happen when students are exposed to upsetting things that they don’t expect,” Collier said. It’s important to note, he said, that the student didn’t appear to have been a victim of trauma and was able to handle the emotions the expe-

« It’s important for

students to have their views of the world — and their views of what art does — shaken up periodically. Some of the most important and lasting kinds of learning experiences are not entirely pleasurable experiences. » PATRICK COLLIER, a Ball State professor of English rience brought up. “At universities, it seems to me that we want to find a way to prevent [a victim sent into distress],” he said. “Without making it impossible for [learning from unpleasant material] to happen.”

Despite leaks, teases, E3 still surprises many Video game makers use annual event for major releases | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES — The jaws aren’t dropping at E3. Traditionally, the Electronic Entertainment Expo is the place where video game publishers reveal their biggest and boldest creations. That’s changed in recent years as game release dates have moved beyond the holiday season and leaks about upcoming titles have spread across the Internet. “It’s true that the Internet and social media are allowing ideas to fly quickly,” said Yves Guillemot, CEO of “Assassin’s Creed” and “Far Cry” publisher Ubisoft. “This year, we were able to keep ‘Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Siege’ a secret, so we were very happy with that.” In the months leading up to this year’s trade show at the Los Angeles Convention Center, an unprecedented amount of both deliberate publicity campaigns announcing new games and seemingly unintentional breeches about upcoming titles meant that much of the typical E3 hype landed with a thud.

Can game makers still astonish? “I still think it’s possible to surprise people,” said Matt Nava, the former “Journey” art director who wowed the crowd at Sony’s press conference Tuesday with footage of “Abzu,” his undersea fantasy coming in 2016. “There’s still so many places you can take people where they never imagined they could go before.” Here’s a sampling of some big surprises at this year’s E3: “Cuphead”: Despite receiving only a few seconds of screen time during Microsoft’s briefing Monday, the old-school 1930s animated art style of this run-and-gun game from indie developer Studio MDHR captured attendees’ imaginations. It’s coming to the Xbox One as part of Microsoft’s ID@ Xbox indie initiative. “Powers”: Since the Xbox One’s debut, Microsoft has touted the console’s entertainment prowess and invested heavily in a slate of original programming. However, it was rival Sony who used its E3 press conference to tout a show set for its online service: a live-action adaptation of the graphic novel by Brian Michael Bendis. “LittleBigPlanet 3”: It was assumed ahead of E3 that sequels to franchises like “Tomb Raider,”

“Crackdown” and “Uncharted” would be teased, while the prospect of a new “LittleBigPlanet” was a long shot. That made the revelation of “LBP 3” coming to PlayStation 4 later this year with playable sidekicks a bombshell. “Splatoon”: Nintendo unveiling “Skylanders”-like figures or a “Legend of Zelda” installment for the Wii U on Tuesday didn’t catch gamers off-guard, but no one guessed that the “Mario Bros.” maker was working on a zany online multiplayer shooter featuring an original crew of shape-shifting squids battling each other with paint guns. “Alien: Isolation”: Buried in a press release announcing that former THQ president Jason Rubin had joined Oculus VR as the head of worldwide studios Tuesday was the shocker that “Alien: Isolation,” the upcoming survival game based on the original “Alien” film, would also be playable with the Oculus Rift virtual reality headset. Other jolts this week included the procedurally generated indie game “No Man’s Sky” bringing some gamers to tears at Sony’s briefing, Ubisoft announcing plans to resurrect “Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six” and Electronic Arts launching the multiplayer beta test for the cops-and-robbers game “Battlefield Hardline.”

More than in recent history, Microsoft focused on showing off new games for the Xbox One, for nearly the entirety of the two-hour event. One new item is “Halo: The Master Chief Collection,” a collection of the four games remastered on one disc. Microsoft also showed off its support for indie games with a montage of more than 15 games coming to the new system. The conference ended with an announcement of a next-gen “Crackdown.”

CHLOE ANAGNOS

Opening up similarly to Microsoft, Sony began its press conference by boasting its upcoming games for the Playstation 4. One exclusive shown early in the conference is “The Order: 1886,” an action game. Sony also showed a new and now available downloadable game, “Entwined.” Toward the end of the conference, Sony announced YouTube compatibility coming to Playstation Network, opening up the possibility of uploading game videos directly to the videosharing site. Sony finished up with a trailer for a new “Uncharted” for PS4.

Nintendo began its press conference by discussing a new “Smash Bros.” for Wii U. With the new version, players can use their Miis to fight in the game. It is scheduled to be released late 2014. Nintendo then announced a new “Zelda” game for the Wii U. The map will be one large landmass for the player to roam as they see fit. It ended the presentation with the announcement of the rumored “Mario Maker,“ which allows users to create their own Mario worlds. They can switch between art that is old school or a 3-D one. – STAFF REPORTS
