For a few years, John R. Emens Auditorium has been trying to book The Fray for a student concert at Ball State. This year, everything fell into place. Tickets for the Sept. 10 concert go on sale for students at 7 a.m. Friday. “Every year we have a student concert,” said Kristi Chambers, assistant director of marketing and communications at Emens. “Last year was Jason Mraz, this year is The Fray. We couldn’t put [tickets] on sale until students got back, so it is a really quick turn around.” The Fray’s “Helios” tour is selling tickets between $45 and $150 on their international tour. Ball State students can purchase $15 tickets for the pit and front section, and $10 for any other seats. Chambers said each Ball State student can also purchase a guest ticket for $30 for the pit and $25 for any other seats. If Emens’ 3,300 seats aren’t sold by the Aug. 29, the tickets will go on sale for Ball State faculty and staff. If by Sept. 3 the tickets are still not sold, they will be released to the public on Ticketmaster. To encourage students to line up Thursday night, Emens is giving away prizes every hour. “There are going to be six giveaways, but it’s going to be for multiple people” Chambers said. “We have a bunch of t-shirts and bags from T.I.S., we’re going to have Jimmy John’s, Pita Pit – a lot of things like that. We’re going to go out and get a Fray album. The finale prize is going to be a Fray t-shirt and CD.”

Drinking with minors could mean arrests New law increases penalties to be misdemeanors, felonies BERG CHIEF REPORTER | KARA knberg2@bsu.edu Upperclassmen could be arrested for providing minors with a place to drink due to a new Indiana law. The social host law, which went into effect July 1, makes it illegal for adults to let minors drink in their homes, even if they aren’t providing the alcohol. It’s considered a Class B misdemeanor for the first offense, a Class A misdemeanor if the person has been convicted of something unrelated before and a level 6 felony if the alcohol causes death or serious injury to anyone. Lisa Hutcheson, director of Indiana Coalition to Reduce Underage Drinking, who helped to pass the law, said they have been working on underage drinking issues for more than 18 years. “We know that through our research that social host laws work as a deterrent [for underage drinking] and it was one of the gaps we noticed [in Indiana],” Hutcheson said. “This definitely filled that gap.”

5 THINGS TO KNOW
1.
TEXAS GOV. RICK PERRY PLEADS NOT GUILTY OF LEVERAGING POWER
AUSTIN, Texas — Republican Texas Gov. Rick Perry has formally pleaded not guilty to criminal charges of leveraging his power to try to oust a Democratic district attorney convicted of drunken driving, according to court documents obtained Wednesday. The potential 2016 presidential candidate entered his plea in a Travis County court filing. He also waived an arrangement that had been set for Friday. The waiver was no surprise given that Perry has signaled no intention of the felony charges interrupting a busy travel schedule to court GOP voters elsewhere. Perry was set to discuss immigration at the conservative Heritage Foundation in Washington on Thursday, followed by a two-day stop in New Hampshire. Perry’s plea was filed with the court late Tuesday, shortly after the longest-serving governor in Texas history was fingerprinted and had his mug shot taken. He tweeted a picture of himself stopping for vanilla ice cream on the way back from his booking.
3. JOURNALIST BEHEADED FOLLOWING ATTACK WASHINGTON — Militants with the Islamic State extremist group have beheaded American journalist James Foley in a horrifying act of revenge for U.S. airstrikes in northern Iraq — and are threatening to kill another hostage, U.S. officials say. Even so, the U.S. military pressed ahead, conducting nearly a dozen airstrikes in Iraq since Tuesday. The White House must now balance the risks of adopting an aggressive policy to destroy the Islamic State against resisting any action that could result in the death of
another American. President Barack Obama will also confront the potentially necessary step of pursuing the Islamic State in Syria, where the U.S. has resisted launching airstrikes or deploying significant American firepower. The president was scheduled to make a midday statement Wednesday about Foley’s killing. “He gave his life trying to expose the world to the suffering of the Syrian people,” said the statement, which was attributed to Foley’s mother, Diane Foley.
4. DRONES BANNED ON APPALACHIAN TRAIL MCT PHOTO
Texas Gov. Rick Perry is booked at the BlackwellThurman Criminal Justice Center in Austin, Texas, for two felony indictments of abuse of power on Tuesday.
2. HOLDER SHARE FEELINGS WITH FERGUSON ST. LOUIS — Attorney General Eric Holder sought Wednesday to reassure the people of Ferguson about the investigation of the shooting death of a black 18-year-old by a white police officer and said he understands why many black Americans do not trust police, recalling
TODAY
how he was repeatedly stopped by officers who seemed to target him because of his race. Holder made the remarks during a visit to the suburb that has been wracked by more than a week of unrest since the Aug. 9 shooting of Michael Brown.
PITTSBURGH — The National Park Service has banned drones from flying over the Appalachian Trail. The Park Service said Wednesday the interim rule prohibits launching, landing or operating unmanned aircraft from or on Appalachian
National Scenic Trail lands. The ban takes effect immediately and lasts until the Park Service can develop an appropriate policy. The Park Service says drones could affect resources and visitors in ways it has yet to analyze so more study is needed.
5. APPEALS COURT TO HEAR MARRIAGE CASE INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana is appealing a federal judge’s ruling that the state must recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states. Attorney General’s office spokesman Bryan Corbin says the state filed an appeal Wednesday with the U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals. U.S. District Judge Richard Young, in his ruling Tuesday evening, granted
the state’s request for a stay, delaying it from taking effect until the appeals court rules on an earlier same-sex marriage decision. The appeals court will hear oral arguments in that case next week. Corbin says the state’s latest appeal likely will be litigated on a different timetable than the cases scheduled for arguments next week.

Sophomore outside hitter Mackenzie Kitchel hits the ball over the net against Bowling Green on Oct. 25 in Scheumann Stadium. Kitchel suffered a torn ACL in the game against Bowling Green and returned this season.
Hitter hopes to regain strength after rehab Work ethic in return provides confidence to improve skill set FOX ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR | JAKE @fakejox3 Mackenzie Kitchel had her setback. Now she’s ready for her comeback. An outside hitter on the Ball State women’s volleyball team, Kitchel played in 24 matches last season, earning five starts. Then, in the first set of an Oct. 25 match against Bowling Green, Kitchel suffered a torn ACL. “I guess my initial reaction was, ‘Oh, crap. I’m done,’” Kitchel said. The team tried to stay optimistic that Kitchel could return at some point during the year, but she said deep down she knew her season was likely over. Her instinct was correct. A transfer from Cincinnati, Kitchel significantly contributed to her first year at Ball State. As a redshirt sophomore, she registered 155 kills, had a 2.35 kills per set average and totaled 26 blocks. While the reserves performed well in Kitchel’s absence, head coach Steve Shondell understood how big of an impact her loss would be. “She was really coming into her own as the season progressed and had moved into
our lineup as our [number one] outside hitter,” he said. “She was really becoming an impact player for us.” Instead of dwelling on her injury, Kitchel quickly went to work. She had surgery to repair her torn ligament, soon leaving Ball State to enter rehab and begin training. “She rehabbed with [Ball State assistant athletic director] Sindra Schueler all last spring, and left campus in April touching 9’7” with her vertical,” Shondell said. “She reported first day of practice touching 9’11”.” Recovering from an ACL tear takes a great deal of rehab if an athlete will return to his or her former physical strength. Kitchel admits the rehab process was long and frustrating, but that she was motivated by a large support group, including family and teammates. Throughout the spring and summer, she trained for this season. Kitchel knew she had reached the final stages of her rehab process in time for this season. “We got more into lifting and cardio and agility kind of stuff,” she said. “And that’s the main stuff that really helps me do what [head coach Shondell] said I’ve done.” While preparing for this season, Shondell said that Kitchel has looked good for the most part. They are still trying to
It wasn’t until she traveled 438 miles that she got her shot. Katherine Mowat, head coach of the Ball State women’s golf team, recruited Hague during a U.S. junior golf tournament in West Lafayette, Ind. “I was really impressed by her swing,” Mowat said. “Even though she didn’t make the cut, she had a very athletic swing and she was a sweet girl.” It was actually Hague who approached her future coach after noticing Mowat was watching her play. Hague knew Mowat was also from Burlington, and used that to break the ice. “I said ‘Hi, my name is Jenna, I know a friend of yours. I’m from Burlington as well,’” Hague said. “And it went from there.” Once the recruitment was complete, Hague had an immediate impact at Ball State. In her freshman year she won three titles, including the Mid-

Mowat tried to take some pressure off. “A little bit after she medaled at the MAC Championships, I saw a bit of a change in her swing,” Mowat said. “I helped

Students protest police violence Groups plan to walk for raising awareness of recent shootings ARIC CHOKEY NEWS EDITOR | news@bsudailynews.com
After weeks of civil unrest in Missouri and the manslaughter of Michael Brown, some Ball State students are preparing to voice their opinions on past shootings by police officers. Nathaniel Thomas, junior directing major and president of the Ball State Ethnic Theater Alliance, is organizing a peaceful rally to protest on Sunday. “It’s an issue that needs to be talked about,” Thomas said. “It’s an issue that needs awareness and the attention.” Thomas said motivation to
organize came as he heard students asking if the Ball State community was going to do anything in light of the recent events. Instead of just protesting what happened in Ferguson, Thomas said the ETA rally will take on a wider issue. “Some people think that they’re just protesting because Mike Brown was shot and killed; some people think they’re protesting because police are using heavy arms against people who are unarmed,” he said. “We are focusing on the biggest issue of all: We don’t want our police officers, you know, shooting to kill.” After taking the initiative to organize the protest and getting permission from the Student Services Offices, Thomas said Sunday’s event isn’t
CITY GETS INSTRUCTIONS ON BLIGHT
After receiving $2.88 million form the state to deal with abandoned homes, Muncie city officials met with the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority on Monday via a webinar, where the agency detailed the next steps for the city. “It wasn’t anything of interest to the community yet, [just] telling us how to fill out paperwork and file a public notice and how to do claims with [the program],” said Terry Whitt Bailey, director of community development in Muncie. “[We discussed] how to present the properties and go through the process.” Bailey added they will putting public notices around town about a formal meeting to discuss the process with which the city will use the money and what people can do on Oct. 7. “It was mainly a logistics webinar,” she said. In late July, the Indiana Blight Elimination Program, which receives $75 million out of the total $221.7 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Hardest Hit Fund, awarded Muncie $2.88 million for the removal and replacement of dilapidated structures. The money will also be invested in redeveloping the Gilbert Historical District. The city applied for $4 million and was awarded $2.88 million. Muncie will apply for more during the next round of selection in the program. “We are really excited we received the most money out of the other districts around here,” Bailey said.

just reactionary. “In the Ethnic Theater Alliance, it’s more than [reactionary] whenever situations
take place to use our rights as students — as Americans — to protest peacefully, appropriately and to get a positive
outcome so that our student body can exercise their rights and know there is a student organization that lets them do just that,” he said. Exercising rights is a responsibility for college students, Thomas said. “I believe that many of our students live in the bubble of Ball State University. ... Sometimes we forget that once you’re in college, you become an adult and there are a lot of things that come with being an adult,” he said. “It’s in our best interest that we pop our bubble of Ball State and look at what’s going
on in the world and we stay active and we stay present.” The protest is set to begin at 3 p.m. and will start at the Quad. From there, participants will march to LaFollette Field where a moment of silence will commence. Then, balloons will be released to honor those killed. Organizations involved include Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority, Call to Action, and the Ethnic Theater Alliance. The local NAACP will also be speaking at the protest and will feature words from the regional chapter, Thomas said.

Law intended to reduce alcohol use by minors

STATE BEGINS SOBRIETY CHECKPOINTS

Mark Castleberry and Trooper J.C. Ramirez arrest Bryce Valin, 19, for DUI on April 3 across from the University of Central Florida. A new campaign in Delaware County called the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign, could see many more arrests like these on and around campus.
Ball State police are working with the Delaware County Traffic Safety Partnership to crack down on impaired drivers as part of the annual Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign. Police agencies across the state will be working to spot and arrest impaired drivers through the use of sobriety checkpoints. August and September are the two deadliest months respectively for drunk driving related fatalities, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Alcohol related crashes lead to 10,000 deaths on the nation’s roadways each year, equaling out to an average of about one fatality every 51 minutes, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. College students are especially likely to engage in drunk driving. Over 3 million students between the ages of 18 and 24 drove under the influence in 2009, according to collegedrinkingprevention.gov. According to the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute, there were 14,655 citations issued, 669 misdemeanor DUIs, and 106 felony DUIs during last year’s campaign. “The purpose of the enforcement campaign is to remove impaired drivers from Indiana roadways before they cause needless pain, suffering or death of innocent victims,” a press release said at the time. – STAFF REPORTS

| CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Although the law applies to all adults, State Senator Pete Miller (R-Avon) said it would be difficult to implement on college campuses. The University Police Department was not available for comment. “I don’t condone underage drinking at any age, but [the law] would be a game-changer on a college campus because things are pretty different there [from high school],” Miller said. “It would make more of an impact, I would envision, for those still in high school. The dynamics on a college campus aren’t going to be changing just from this law.” Miller said the change
will mainly impact high school students. “If a parent of a high school drinker is trying to do the right thing, they think, ‘I don’t want my son or daughter somewhere out there drinking, so I’ll just have them drink here’ and while that’s a well intention thought, the kids are still underage,” Miller said. Miller said in the past when law enforcements have tried to enforce underage drinking, they have had cases that could not be prosecuted because there wasn’t proof that the adult provided the alcohol. While they may not be able to prosecute adults for providing drinks, they can for providing minors a place to
drink, he said. Hutcheson said while this isn’t a solution to underage drinking, it is a way to educate parents and other adults about their roles and responsibilities when it comes to alcohol. “We hear, somewhere every fall, of parents and adults who host parties and provide alcohol and take everyone’s keys, but someone still manages to get injured or unfortunately killed,” she said. “Hopefully this will deter underage drinking because there won’t be as many adults hosting parties.” Lieutenant Al Williams of the Muncie Police Department said while he wasn’t familiar with the social host law, if anyone caught

Volunteering could help millennials pay for college loans Company connects students, sponsors to pay student debt |
ALAN HOVORKA CHIEF REPORTER afhovorka@bsu.edu
Student debt maintains its status as a national talking piece as to what can be done for those finishing or beginning their college education. As a result, alternative methods have arose to allow students a chance to alleviate their debt. The most recent of which is a company called Sponsor Change which began a pilot operation in 2009. “Sponsor Change is a pro-
gram that wants to get millennials volunteering again and increasing our volunteer rate while also helping pay off student loan debt,” said Shawn Agyeman, marketing director for Sponsor Change. Sponsor Change works as a staffing agency for non-profits, serving as a medium by which donors, non-profits and students communicate and arrange working together, and eventually doing so online. Seventy-one percent of college seniors last year graduated with an average debt of $29,400, from 2008 to 2012 debt at graduation has increased an average of 6% each year according to Project on Student Debt. Total student debt is estimated
between $902 billion and $1 trillion, according to American Student Assistance. Between 2010 and 2012, the average millennial volunteer rate ranged from 15 to 38.2 percent from state to state, including the District of Columbia. Sponsor Change’s business model and idea comes from the notion that since student debt has risen to extremely high levels, the amount of volunteering students has decreased because they have to find ways to alleviate the burden of student loans. Earning money takes up most of their time. Agyeman said his company believes non-profits, individuals and government entities can come together because they have mutual interests:
One is looking to get rid of debt and the other is needing specific skill sets. “What we want to do is we want to marry the prospect of volunteering and student debt payment for skill based labor,” he said. “Because we believe a lot of people got to college to get skills, computer engineering or architecture.” The company acts as an intermediary, connecting volunteers and organizations. “Individuals, corporations, government entities go, ‘Hey we have this project that we need completed and we would like someone with certain skills to do it. I want someone to build my website,’” he said. The two parties communicate with the help of Sponsor
Change as to what they want and in the end the sponsor, nonprofit or other organization, pays the Change Agent, volunteer, directly to their loan agency to get rid of their debt by whatever agreed amount. It could be $1,000 or $2,000, but it depends on the contract, Agyeman said. Currently, Sponsor Change is in the process of moving its services online and only operates in Chicago, Pittsburgh and Washington D.C. The new online platform will work as an online exchange between volunteers and causes. “You wouldn’t need me to do the busy work of matching,” he said. “[Also, we are] putting together a crowd-

funding platform, so if you wanted to raise money for a project that you were doing that went toward your student debt while trying to help homeless people or children in Africa.” He described the company’s mission as a two-way street. “It’s kind of like give back and pay back, if I could sum up our motto,” he said.

UPD takes the plunge for kids Officers to help with fundraiser for Special Olympics |
RAYMOND GARCIA STAFF REPORTER ragarcia@bsu.edu
The University Police Department is set to make a splash Friday for the second annual Dunk-A-Cop event at the Scramble Light. Officers Travis Stephens and Michael Lucas are two cops who will participate in the event, which raises money for the Special Olympics of Indiana. Stephens, who has been with UPD for almost five years, is returning to the event for the second time. “It’s a good way to connect with the student body and let them see a different side of us besides all the negative stuff,”
Stephens said. Lucas, who has been with UPD for two years, said this is his first time taking part in the event. “A lot of the contacts we have with students are mostly negative and we just want to shake hands, meet people and have a good time,” Lucas said. Lucas said there are some misconceptions about the relationship between UPD and students. “There will always be disrespectful people and people who are not fully aware of our jurisdiction,” he said, “We are there to help and most people do understand that.” Both Stephens and Lucas said they always knew they wanted to become police officers. “Some people were just born with it,” Stephens said. “They have the desire to help people and protect them; it’s a calling.” Lucas said he knew since
