UPGRADES IN MIDDLE OF PROCESS Attorney to review FIELD Summer renovations to improve university’s fraud underway Ball Diamond project BALL DIAMOND
Former prosecutor to look at protocols after $13M scams DYE NEWS EDITOR | ASHLEY news@bsudailynews.com
A former federal prosecutor will look at Ball State’s fraud cases from 2008 and 2010 that totaled $13 million. The Board of Trustees voted Thursday to allow its chair to hire outside resources without calling a board meeting on these decisions. This gives the chair, currently Rick Hall, the broad power to quickly hire outside help, allowing the board to avoid a cumbersome number of meetings, said Tom Taylor, vice president for enrollment, marketing and communications.
« What happened was
really awful. Everyone involved — the university and the board — is sick that it happened. » TOM TAYLOR, vice president for enrollment, marketing and communications Hall is using this new power to hire Deborah Daniels to “bring in someone with fresh eyes” to look at the two fraud cases the university was a victim in, Taylor said. Daniels — a former U.S. attorney and U.S. assistant attorney general and former Gov. Mitch Daniels’ sister — is currently at the Indianapolis office of Krieg DeVault.

After more than 40 years, the Cardinals’ home field is undergoing renovations that include: • Dugouts • Modernized press boxes • Grandstands • Concession stands
FOX STAFF REPORTER | JAKE @fakejox3
The Ball State baseball program has used Ball Diamond for more than 40 years, and while it is still a serviceable field, history has taken its toll on the diamond’s condition. But thanks to a $20 million fundraising effort, the university is currently in the midst of renovating the Cardinals’ home field. Baseball head coach Rich Maloney, who began his second stint with Ball State prior to the 2013 season, has led the way for the Ball Diamond renovations, and understands its importance based on the shift in college baseball. “Really, if we want to count baseball as a true sport here in Muncie, Ind., then we’ve got to be able to commit resources,”

OBAMA SEEKS HELP FROM GOVENORS FOR IMMIGRANTS
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell met privately with dozens of governors Sunday as the Obama administration tried to get support from the leaders of states that will host thousands of the Central American children who have crossed the Mexican border. Governors of both parties expressed concerns about the cost to states, including providing public education for the children. “We deal with the humanitarian aspects of this, we’ve got to do it in the most costeffective way possible,” said Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, a Democrat. Under current law, immigrant children from countries that don’t border the U.S. and who cross into this country by themselves are turned over to HHS within 72 hours. From there, they often are reunited with parents or placed with other relatives already living in the country, while they wait for an immigration court to decide their future. The court process can take years.

BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraq’s deadlocked parliament failed Sunday to overcome the deep divisions hampering the formation of a new government, making no progress on choosing new leaders who could help hold the nation together and confront the Sunni militant blitz that has overrun much of the country. The legislature is under pressure to quickly choose a new speaker of parliament, president and prime minister — the first steps toward a new govern-
ment. The international community has pressed lawmakers to put their differences aside, while the United Nations has warned of chaos if the political impasse drags on for too long. But just 30 minutes into Sunday’s parliament session, acting speaker Mahdi al-Hafidh announced he was breaking off the proceedings until Tuesday “due to the absence of any agreement on the names of the nominees for the three posts.”

JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) — A gunman who killed a rookie officer responding to a report of an armed robbery at a drugstore early Sunday never tried to rob the store and instead lay in wait for police, telling a witness to watch the news because he was “going to be famous,” authorities said. Lawrence Campbell shot Officer Melvin Santiago in the head shortly after he and his partner arrived at the 24-hour Walgreens at around 4 a.m., Jersey City
Mayor Steven Fulop said. Other officers returned fire at Campbell, killing him. Campbell, 27, of Jersey City, was one of three suspects wanted by police for a prior homicide, Fulop said. Fulop said Campbell was carrying a knife when he walked into Walgreens and asked for directions to the greeting card aisle. He assaulted an armed security guard at the store and snatched his gun, Fulop said. He waited for police to arrive, then shot Santiago.

The typical day in the life of a NFL rookie is mainly spent watching film, in team meetings or memorizing the playbook. For an hour and a half Friday, however, former Ball State quarterback and current Baltimore Ravens’ first-year quarterback Keith Wenning spent some of his time at the Stoops Automotive showroom in Muncie to sign autographs and take pictures with fans of all ages. “[People coming here] means a lot,” Wenning said. “It means I did something right.” The starting quarterback for all four of his collegiate years, Wenning left Ball State as the program’s all-time leader in touchdown passes, passing yards, pass completions and pass attempts. In addition to his personal achievements, Wenning led the Cardinals to back-to-back bowl appearances his junior and senior seasons before

the Ravens selected him in the sixth round of the 2014 NFL Draft. These accolades are what led Randy Stoops, co-owner of Stoops Automotive, to invite Wenning to his dealership Friday evening. Stoops said he receives frequent suggestions of people to host at his dealership, but when the opportunity with Wenning arose, the pairing was mutually beneficial. “I have watched [Wenning] grow for four years,” said Stoops, a Cardinal Varsity
Club board member. “Keith is the ideal guy. ... This is the kind of kid you want.” Many of those in attendance appeared to hold the same respect of Wenning as Stoops, as several went out of their way to tell the 6-foot3 quarterback how much they appreciate the way he carries himself. “[The Wennings] are really great people,” Jean Siefring, a friend of the family, said. “They have good heads on their shoulders, and they will take the time for anybody.”
Though it was his first signing appearance as a professional athlete, Wenning said being involved in the community is something he intends to continue. “Hopefully, I am able [to help] financially and with my time,” he said. “Whatever it may be, give back as often as possible. Who knows what it may be, but just something.” Even though Wenning has moved on to the next chapter of his life and is no longer the Cardinals’ quarterback, what he did for the program has not been forgotten. “We’re in the middle of July and we’re talking Ball State football,” Stoops said. “Keith did a lot for the university. ... It’s just great to see him move forward.”

The deal provides flexibility for the NBA’s biggest star with the league’s maximum salary expected to rise in the future.

Freedom Bus to teach about civil rights Ball State students to create, build ideas in immersive course
FREEDOM BUS
|
CHRISTOPHER STEPHENS CHIEF REPORTER castephens@bsu.edu
Almost 60 years after Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a public bus, a group of students are using that same tool, a decommissioned public bus, to tell the story of Muncie’s contributions to end racial inequality. The Freedom Bus, created from a donated MITS bus, will bring together students from several majors, including theatre, telecommunications, architecture and education, to create exhibits for a mobile museum. Beth Messner, an associate professor working to recruit students, said the goal is to teach central Indiana residents about the local heroes who shaped the movement for racial equality in Indiana. Most people, she said, believe the fight only happened in the south where Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks fought for equality. “It is kind of [a misconception] to think that simply because we live in a place that is north of [the] Mason-Dixon [line] there wasn’t segregation,” she said.

The Freedom Bus project began in 2005 when MITS donated a retired bus to the MLK Dream Team for the mobile museum to teach about the civil rights movement. Students will create designs for the exhibit through Ball State immersive learning courses, highlighting civil rights leaders and the local heroes in Muncie.
She said the Freedom Bus will teach children in area schools about central Indiana’s heroes like Ray Armstrong, the first black man elected to public office in Muncie in 1951, and Robert Foster, who in 1956 became the first black principal in of a desegregated school in Muncie. “[Children should] know there were people that were like King and Parks who lived in their own community, whose stories are equally important and whose work made possible the lives they currently live,” she said. The project began in 2005 when MITS donated a retired bus to the MLK Dream Team. The team worked with Minnetrista to garner a $10,000 grant from the Community
Foundation of Muncie. The project is supported by other donations from local residents, churches and school children, according to the project’s website. Ball State students who work on the project will spend a semester creating designs and exhibits that will eventually be placed on the bus. Messner said these types of projects, ones that provide 15 credits, are the largest in terms of scope for immersive learning projects at Ball State. The hardest part, she said, is finding 15 credits worth of classes for students coming from many different areas of study and levels of completion toward their degree. She said the worst part of her job is find-

ACLU ASKS HOLDER ABOUT MARRIAGES
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Attorneys on Friday asked U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to step in on behalf of hundreds of same-sex couples who were wed before a federal appeals court stay. The letter by the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana asks Holder to issue a statement that the federal government will recognize the marriages as he did in Utah and Michigan, which would make Indiana’s couples eligible for federal benefits for married couples. The ACLU’s move comes the same week that Gov. Mike Pence’s office said the state wouldn’t recognize the same marriages. Separately Friday, the 7th U.S Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago combined Indiana and Wisconsin’s gay marriage cases and set them on an expedited schedule. –

brings a special knowledge and a special skill set,” Messner said. “So it is about everyone stepping forward when it is their time to shine and following along when they need to. It’s magic when it works.” What is most important to her, she said, is teaching students to learn for themselves, something that immersive learning does best. “[Immersive learning] is not just about learning real world experience — that is a part of it — but learning how to do the kind of self-reflection that is a part of that process,” she said. She jokingly said her idea behind immersive learning may even be considered heresy by fellow professors — allowing students to teach themselves.

“Sometimes, the things that they discover are even more powerful when they learn them on their own,” she said. “I think that also sets a person up to be a self-directed learner in the future and that is the ticket to life success, right there.”

ing a perfect candidate, only to learn there is no way to fit the project into their degree. Matt Bailey, project manager for the Building Better Communities Fellows Programs, works with Ball State professors and community members to create immersive learning projects. He said projects that are 15 credit hours are rare because they magnify the hurdles faced by creating small projects. However, the scope of what can be accomplished by a semester-long class is often worth the struggle, he said. Another hurdle faced by the Freedom Bus project is getting students from many different backgrounds to work together. “That is the magic of it, though, because everyone

She will review the case and look for changes that can be made to better strengthen internal controls and prevent any kinds of fraud in the future. “There are no absolute safeguards, but there are best practices,” Taylor said. “The external folks the board will bring in will really [see if] those are the best approaches.” After uncovering the fraud cases, the university put in place new checks and balances, said Randy Howard, vice president for business affairs and treasurer, in an interview with The Daily News in June. An example is that the investment office cannot purchase a security from brokers unless they are on a university preapproved list. Taylor said the new review will look through the university’s past investments, to double check what he is confident was a thorough first internal review.
The U.S. Attorneys’ Office contacted Ball State in September 2011 about the university being a potential fraud victim, prompting an internal review. Ball State’s review uncovered two cases from 2008 and 2010 that involved investments made by Gale Prizevoits, former director of cash and investments. “She signed contracts that the university didn’t even know existed,” Howard told The Daily News in June. In addition to hiding these contracts from the university, he said Prizevoits had misrepresented what was in the contracts, going in and changing “the nature of some of the investments in the investment records.” After the review, Ball State handed the information over to the U.S. Attorneys’ Office to investigate the potential fraud cases. These ongoing investigations lead to the arrests and sen-
tencing of what Taylor called “two of the major players.” George Montolio, 48, of New York was sentenced March 7, 2013, to three years in prison for defrauding the university after receiving some of the money from Prizevoits’ $5 million investment with a company called Blackhawk. Recently on June 5, 38-yearold Seth Beoku Betts of Florida received a sentence of four years and three months in prison for separate fraudulent investment contracts he made with Prizevoits, totaling $8.165 million. Montolio and Betts were ordered to repay the university for $3 million and $8.165 million, respectively. “What happened was really awful,” Taylor said. “Everyone involved — the university and the board — is sick that it happened. Unfortunately, these things do happen. ... There are unscrupulous people who commit criminal activity.”
FRAUD CASES 2008
$8.165 million Gale Prizevoits, representing the university as director of cash and investments, entered into three putative contracts with Seth Beoku Betts of Betts and Gambles. The contracts, dated July 3, July 24 and Dec. 9, totaled $8.165 million for buying collateralized mortgage obligations and selling them to make a profit. Betts received a sentence of four years and three months for defrauding the university. APRIL 27, 2010
$5 million Once again, Prizevoits created a putative contract — this time with Blackhawk Wealth Solutions Inc. for $5 million. The contract states the company would get federal Treasury STRIPS, with Ball State receiving 25 percent of the net profits. However, $3 million of this money found its way to George Montolio of New York. He received three years in prison for defrauding Ball State.
SIBLINGS: Astronaut brings piece of Ball State to International Space Station | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Space Station, flying up in a Soyuz spacecraft from Kazakhstan, where he got to talk with a man who indirectly set him on a course 200 miles above the Earth. That man himself had traveled 238,855 miles from Earth in 1969. “I did make a request to have a phone call with Mike Collins because he wrote that book,” he said. “So I was able to get his phone number and call him in his home, and we just chatted.” Kevin said getting to be miles over his planet made him ask himself daily, “How did I get here?” “You can see the city lights, the lightning and the clouds down below and the sea of stars above you,” he said. “You can see it change so fast, just the way the sky is moving around you. It really makes the Earth look small. It looks and feels like a quarter-mile track.”
DIVERGING PATHS
As Nancy and Kevin grew up, they ended up pursuing different interests, drawing inspiration for their lives from their family. Nancy, who went back to school after raising five children, received her degree in English education at Ball State, while Kevin pursued a career in aviation. “I was really drawn to aviation from a pretty young age and that was because my older brothers were both interested in it,” Kevin said. However, a book he took from David’s room changed his life forever. To this day, Kevin can still remember the opening paragraph of “Carrying the Fire” by Michael Collins, a story about the Apollo 11 moon landing. “It was the first book I read to the end and turned right back to the first page,” he said. “There are [not] too many books I have read twice in my whole life.” It wasn’t the fact Collins was part of Apollo 11 that attracted Kevin, but rather his career as a fighter pilot and a test pilot. When David took Kevin on his first flight when he was 13, it solidified Kevin’s desire to fly. Less than four years later, Kevin earned his pilot’s license. He graduated from Blackford High School in Hartford City, Ind., earned an engineering degree at Notre Dame, enlisted in the Air Force and eventually became a test pilot, which led to applying for the astronaut program. He was turned down three times before he was accepted. “I was 40 years old already by the time I became an astronaut,” Kevin said. “It’s not one of those things that you can race towards after college.” In 2000, he got accepted for candidacy. “I lucked out,” he said.
ROCKET MAN
In 2002, Nancy went to Florida to visit Kevin at his new job as an official astronaut. She had the chance to meet John Young, the ninth person to walk on the moon, and Rick Husband. Husband would later command the Space Shuttle Columbia when the shuttle’s heat resistant tiles failed and the shuttle disintegrated, killing the crew in 2003.

KEVIN FORD, a Hoosier astronaut “That was really personal ... [because] Kevin had spent a lot of time with all them,” Nancy said. “He had to do the flyovers and take the families to the funerals. It was just really difficult for us.” It wasn’t until 2009 that Kevin was finally able to pilot a space shuttle and go into space for the first time. The liftoff gathered all of his friends and family but for one — “Kevin’s biggest fan,” David. A year earlier, David died from pancreatic cancer. Nancy said David, the man who inspired Kevin and was the first person to place him in a cockpit, shared many similarities with Kevin. “They were so much alike,” she said. “On the phone, I couldn’t tell them apart and their
writing was almost identical.” In his first wakeup call in space, Kevin honored his brother and his state by playing the IU fight song.
UP ABOVE
Kevin has been up in orbit one more time since the 2009 mission, his family always nearby for his launches and returns. “They really like to know the details,” Kevin said. “If I mention something like, ‘Hey we are going to have a really high beta angle with the space station,’ my sister, Nancy, can tell you what that means. I think it kind of rubs off on them.” His most recent mission was from late October 2012 until March 2013 on the International
Sitting in her office, Nancy thumbed a pendant around her neck and pointed to a framed Ball State T-shirt with four patches pinned to the bottom of it. “That’s the Ball State shirt Kevin took with him into space,” she said. Kevin said before a mission, he had visited Nancy and their father, who died recently in June, at the university for lunch when he mentioned that he needed a Ball State T-shirt. He had a specific type in mind, a 100-percent cotton red T-shirt with a Cardinal head on it. “We were having a hard time finding it, and so we finally ask the guy at the store and explain it to him and he goes, ‘Well how picky are you, man?’” Kevin said. When the Fords were checking out, Kevin told the employee why he had been so specific about the shirt. “I said, ‘Maybe, you’ll see it in the magazines someday,’” he said. “I’m not sure he believed it.” Upon his return after the space trip, he gave the shirt to his sister. Nancy then pinned all the patches from his missions to it. The last one is seen dangling, about to fall. “He designed the last patch,” she said. “I say I help him, but I was just there with him. Since he was commander, he got to design it.” Kevin took the design to a jeweler to craft a pendant based off it, Nancy said. After it went up with him on his mission miles above the Earth, he returned to hand it to her. “He’ll always be my little brother,” Nancy said, thumbing the pendant.

CONDUCTOR LORIN MAAZEL DIES AT 84
| AFROMAN AT BE HERE NOW
CASTLETON, Va. (AP) — Conductor Lorin Maazel, whose prodigious career included seven years at the helm of the New York Philharmonic, died Sunday at his home in northern Virginia. He was 84. Maazel died at Castleton Farms from complications following pneumonia, according to a statement by The Castleton Festival, an annual festival that Maazel founded with his wife in 2009. Maazel was rehearsing and preparing for the festival at the time of his death. Known for his relentless energy and passion for precision, Maazel led nearly 200 orchestras in at least 7,000 opera and concert performances during 72 years at the podium. Maazel, an American born in Paris in 1930, took his first violin lesson at age 5. He was 7 when he was invited by Arturo Toscanini to conduct the NBC Symphony. His New York Philharmonic debut came five years later, in 1942. By age 15, he had conducted most of the major American orchestras. At 16, he entered the University of Pittsburgh to study language, mathematics and philosophy and played the violin with the Pittsburgh Symphony to help pay tuition. He was music director of the Cleveland Orchestra from 1972 to 1982. He then served briefly as general manager and artistic director of the Vienna State Opera, the first American to do so. In 2002, he was chosen as music director of the New York Philharmonic — America’s oldest orchestra. Maazel served there for seven years. In addition to Dietlinde Turban Maazel, his wife, Maazel is survived by four daughters, three sons and four grandchildren. –

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — NBC said it’s weighing bringing back Maya Rudolph’s variety show. In May, the actress-comedian starred in “The Maya Rudolph Show,” a special that combined comedy and music. NBC executives told a TV critics’ meeting Sunday that they’re in discussions with the actress-comedian about what the program would look like if it returned. Rudolph has a very loyal following from her “Saturday Night Live” days and the network was MAYA RUDOLPH, encouraged by audience response to the special, an actress said NBC Entertainment Robert Greenblatt. NBC is searching for a format that would put Rudolph on the air on a regular or occasional basis. Rudolph, whose film credits include “Bridesmaids,” has said she would love to do a weekly series.
