Richard Posner, who was appointed by President Ronald Reagan in 1981, hit the backers of the ban the hardest. He balked when Wisconsin Assistant Attorney General Timothy Samuelson repeatedly pointed to “tradition” as the underlying justification for barring gay marriage. “It was tradition to not allow blacks and whites to marry — a tradition that got swept away,” the 75-year-old judge said. Prohibition of same sex marriage, Posner said, derives from “a tradition of hate ... and savage discrimination” of homosexuals.

Run defense to be tested in season opener vs. Colgate Motion offense will keep pressure on new defensive linemen, coaching staff DAVID POLASKI CHIEF REPORTER | @DavidPolaski
Ball State’s new look defensive line won’t be eased into the season by any means. Saturday’s opponent, Colgate, is a runheavy team that will test Ball State’s Michael Ayers, Darnell Smith, Keenan Noel and Nick Miles for all four quarters. Miles is the only returning starter from last season’s defensive line. “We’ll have to play fast and be relentless,” Miles said. “If you get caught up looking at motion and staring into Colgate’s backfield, that’s when you can really get gassed and we’re trying to prevent that.” Last season, Colgate was ranked first in the Patriot League with 191.4 rushing

yards per game, but lost dual-threat quarterback Gavin McCarney, who rushed for over 600 yards himself. The Raider offense is predicated around using motion to distract and confuse defenders, and to form unbalanced lines to create mismatches. Once the ball is snapped, it can be handed off to a multitude of weapons, or the quarterback can keep it and look for space to run. Passing the football is less common. In 2013, Colgate attempted just 23 passes per game, the fewest in the Patriot League and significantly less than every team except Bucknell. “They’ll get your eyes messed up real quick,” linebacker Ben Ingle said. “It’ll get you out of position. You have to play smart and stick to your assignment, and not let the possibility of the quarterback taking off distract you.” Colgate’s new quarterback, Jake Melville, showed the ability to run last season. He played in five games, making one start,

while compiling 148 rushing yards. It’ll be up to Ayers and Miles to keep Melville in the pocket, and to not let him get into open space.

Hamas agrees to Gaza cease-fire
Interim settlement concludes fighting, but puts off issues
tary arsenal intact. Israel and Egypt will continue to control access to blockaded Gaza, despite Hamas’ long-running demand that the border closures imposed in 2007 be lifted.
THE DEAL
| THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Under the Egyptian-brokered deal, Israel is to ease imports to Gaza, including aid and material for reconstruction. It also agreed to a largely symbolic gesture, expanding a fishing zone for Gaza fishermen from three to six nautical miles into the Mediterranean. Next month, talks are to begin on more complex issues, including Hamas’ demand to start building a seaport and airport in Gaza. Israel has said it would only agree if Hamas disarms, a demand the militant group has rejected.
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Israel and Gaza’s ruling Hamas agreed Tuesday to an openended cease-fire after seven weeks of fighting — an uneasy deal that halts the deadliest war the sides have fought in years, with more than 2,200 killed, but puts off the most difficult issues. In the end, both sides settled for an ambiguous interim agreement in exchange for a period of calm. Hamas, though badly battered, remains in control of Gaza, with part of its mili-

The cease-fire went into effect at 7 p.m. Tuesday, and violence persisted until the last minute. Between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m., Gaza militants fired 83 rockets, of which 13 were intercepted. Throughout the war, Israel launched some 5,000 air strikes against Gaza, About three-fourths of those killed in the strikes have been civilians, according to the U.N. and Palestinian officials. The military said Gaza militants have fired at least 1,400 mortars on the border communities since the fighting began. Hamas declared victory, even though it had little to show for a war that killed 2,143 Palestinians, wounded more than 11,000 and left some 100,000 homeless. On the Israeli side, 64 soldiers and five civilians were killed, the last being a man killed by Palestinian mortar fire shortly before the cease-fire was announced. Hundreds of Israelis left their homes along the border with the Gaza Strip on Monday, reflecting growing frustration over the war with Hamas and the Palestinian mortar fire raining down on their communities. Tens of thousands of Israelis have fled the area in nearly two months of fighting. With the school year fast approaching, the government began offering assistance to residents Monday in the first large-scale voluntary evacuation in nearly eight weeks of fighting. Officials estimate that 70 percent of the 40,000 inhabitants of the farming communities along the Gaza border have left over the course of the

LOOSE ENDS
Despite its victory celebrations Tuesday, Hamas failed to force an end to the Gaza blockade, imposed by Israel and Egypt after the Islamic militants seized the seaside strip in 2007. Under the restrictions, virtually all of Gaza’s 1.8 million people cannot trade or travel. Only a few thousand are able to leave the coastal territory every month. The cease-fire deal makes no mention of ending the ban on exports from Gaza or significantly easing travel.

Coach anticipates start of season Team to host tryouts for walk-on spot, deadline this Friday |
JAKE FOX ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR @fakejox3
Ball State men’s volleyball head coach Joel Walton is anxious to get the season started. “We’ve got some good pieces that return,” Walton said. “But we’ve got to look to new players in the setting positions and middle positions to have to fill roles.” He will be looking to new players when the team hosts open tryouts on Sept. 8. Students will have the opportunity to compete for a walk-on spot on the team’s 2015 roster. To be eligible to tryout, students must first speak with an assistant coach, either Kevin Furnish or Jim Palilonis. Students should expect to give personal information, such as student eligibility and identification number, as well as a physical. The deadline to sign up for the tryout is 3 p.m. Friday. With the season beginning in January, any student who
makes the team will have ample time to get comfortable. “We’ve got this fall semester to train,” Walton said. “We’ve also got some time to plug in our offensive and defensive schemes, and give the guys a good understanding of how we want to play Ball State volleyball.” In addition to 13 returning players from last year’s team that finished 22-8, the Cardinals have already added several newcomers to the roster, and they are expected to contribute right away. Walton said he is excited to see how his combination of veterans and young players mesh.

| CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 He said Colgate doesn’t run complex passing routes, but it’s not necessary if there aren’t defensive backs in the backfield to disrupt them. With the threat of play action, defenders have to be careful not to get caught committing before they’re sure where the ball is going. “At the end of the day, you’ve got to be very technically sound,” Lembo said. “Everybody’s got to be on the same
page in terms of their responsibilities.” Despite a number of new starters on the defensive line, Lembo doesn’t see it being an issue, as most of those players received situational playing time through last season. He said no defensive lineman can play every snap of every game, so new starters like Ayers and Smith were still seeing 20 to 25 snaps each game.

Students may have received an unexpected email in their inbox this semester – an invitation to join the new education site, StudyRoom. StudyRoom is a site and application, similar to Blackboard, designed for students to communicate without teachers present. They can share documents like study guides, send messages and create posts. Students can also create groups for specific classes. At this time, 75,000 students are signed up across the country, said Emerson Malca, co-founder and CEO of StudyRoom. At Ball State, 3,366 students were using the site as of press time. Unlike Blackboard, it is not endorsed by Ball State. Malca said he wanted to have a service like this when he was in college. “There was never a way for

Schools plan to launch the site by the end of the year me to be connected,” Malca said. “I had a friend who needed help with physics, and I [asked] if she knew any classmates. She only knew two and it was a class of 150.” He said, in today’s age of social media, the lack of educational communication was unusual. “It was shocking because this the most social and connected generation ever,” Malca said. “There was nothing for them to connect in an educational setting.” He decided to create StudyRoom in 2012. In January, the service launched at six beta schools. San Francisco State had 7,000 students involved
out of 25,000 people at the university, Malca said. Ball State, one of the first schools to launch, started signing people up this fall. The service connects students using social media or email. It starts with a campus founder who invites others to join and spreads the word. Hannah Jackson, a senior photojournalism major, said she got an email to StudyRoom for her Sociology 100 class. “I thought it was a scam at first,” Jackson said. “I thought it was just some advertisement thing so that someone could get your money for something else. I was surprised when I saw that it was actually a thing.” She has only received two notifications on her account, but likes the idea. “Overall I think it’s pretty nice,” Jackson said. “It’s easier to see than something like Blackboard, where you just get an email. This is kind of in between Facebook and Blackboard. It’s more user friendly [than Blackboard].” So far, Malca thinks the website has been successful. “Everything went so great,” he said. “One of the things we

PRINTING: University plans to regulate departmental usage with company contract | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “We’ll look at how many print output devices they have, how many printers they have ... and then going through and suggesting an optimized print solution,” Stephenson said. “That generally means getting rid of the smaller, more inefficient devices, the ones that are very expensive to operate and replacing those with more efficient devices, better technology, usually a lot more scanning.” The goal is to remove the small personal printers because they usually aren’t as efficient as larger printers and tend to cost more per page. “A lot of the small printers and desktop devices probably will go away with the print assessment,” he said. The university plans to regulate the remaining printers in a way that will not make it difficult for faculty to do their jobs, Stephenson said. “That’s why we’re taking so much time to go in and make sure we have an understanding of what the departmental processes are, what their work flows are, what they need to be able to do the jobs that they have,” Stephenson said. “We want to make sure that when we put equipment into the departments, that the right type of equipment is there for people to be able to do their jobs.” The university did a study three years ago and found that it has about three times the amount of print equipment than what there should be according to industry standards. “The reason for that is be-

cause there hasn’t been a lot of regulation over who can have printers, who can buy printers,” Stephenson said. Stephenson said since there are multiple brands of machines, it makes printer use more expensive. “All of those machines take ink and toner and supplies and maintenance, so part of the efficiency of the print management program is to standardize on one brand of equipment; in this case it’s Ricoh,” he said. Departments will still have
to pay for their printing, as they always have, but the new model for printing will be on a per-impression basis, Stephenson said. There hasn’t been a campuswide announcement of the program yet, but some departments have heard about the potential changes. Olon Dotson, an associate professor of architecture, heard about the program from a colleague in the business college last spring, but didn’t think it applied to him.

Other universities have used the Managed Print Services program, like University of Miami, University of Pennsylvania and Clemson University. University of Pennsylvania reduced printing costs during a four-month pilot program from $54,741 to $35,985 in one school, which is about a 34 percent reduction, according to upenn.edu. They did the pilot program in two other schools, and they reduced 15 percent in one and 23 percent in the other.

“I thought it was a business college policy, but apparently it’s campus wide,” Dotson said. “They said it was going to be enforced soon and the business college was going to abide by it.” Criminal justice and criminology professor Bryan Byers said he hadn’t heard anything about the program. Angela Hampton, an assistant elementary education professor, said she had heard about it, but she doesn’t mind since she doesn’t use her own printer.
Attorney generals in both states asked the appellate court to permanently restore the bans, which were ruled unconstitutional in June. Its ruling could affect hundreds of couples who married after lower courts tossed the bans and before those rulings were stayed pending the Chicago appeal. Gay marriage is legal in 19 states as well as the District of Columbia, and advocates have won more than 20 court victories around the country since the U.S. Supreme Court ordered the federal government to recognize statesanctioned gay marriages last year. The Supreme Court has yet to take up a case, but Utah and Oklahoma’s cases were appealed to the high court and Virginia’s attorney general has also asked the justices to weigh in. Appeals court rulings are pending for Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee, while appellate court hearings are scheduled next month for Hawaii, Oregon, Idaho, Nevada and is expected soon in Texas. Posner, who has a reputa-
tion for making lawyers before him squirm, cut off Indiana Solicitor General Thomas Fisher, just moments into his presentation and frequently chided him to answer his questions. At one point, Posner ran through a list of psychological strains the children of unmarried same-sex couples suffered, including having to struggle to grasp why their schoolmates’ parents were married and theirs weren’t. “What horrible stuff,” Posner said. What benefit to society in barring gay marriage, he asked, outweighs that kind of harm to children? “All this is a reflection of biology,” Fisher answered. “Men and women make babies, same-sex couples do not... we have to have a mechanism to regulate that, and marriage is that mechanism.” Samuelson echoed that, telling the hearing that regulating marriage — including by encouraging men and women to marry — was part of a concerted Wisconsin policy to reduce numbers of children born out of wedlock. “I assume you know how that has been working out
in practice?” Judge David Hamilton responded, citing figures that births to single women from 1990 to 2009 rose 53 percent in Wisconsin and 68 percent in Indiana. While the judges seemed to push defenders of the bans the hardest, they also pressed the pro-gay marriage side to say where they themselves would draw the line about who could and couldn’t marry. Would they argue in favor of polygamy on similar grounds, by pointing to the emotional toll on children in families with multiple mothers or fathers, asked Judge David Hamilton, a President Barack Obama appointee. “If you have two people, it’s going to look like a marriage,” said Kenneth Falk of the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana. “If you have three or four, it doesn’t. ... There’s no slippery slope.” Among those following the arguments in court was plaintiff Ruth Morrison, a retired Indianapolis Fire Department battalion chief. She said because Indiana won’t recognize the woman she married in another state as her wife, she wouldn’t be
able to pass on pension and other benefits if she dies. “Now Indiana tells us our promises are only good if our spouses are of the opposite sex,” Morrison, wearing a fire department uniform, said during a rally ahead of the hearing Monday night. A voter-approved constitutional amendment bans gay marriage in Wisconsin. State law prohibits it in Indiana. Neither state recognizes same-sex marriages performed elsewhere. The lawsuits that led to Tuesday’s hearing in Chicago contend that the bans violate the U.S. Constitution’s equal protection guarantee. Despite the seriousness of the hearing, there was some levity. At one point, a visibly uncomfortable Samuelson struggled to offer a specific reason for how gay marriage bans benefit society. He then noted a yellow courtroom light was on signaling his allotted time was nearly up. “It won’t save you,” Judge Ann Claire Williams, a Bill Clinton appointee, told him, prompting laughter in court. Samuelson smiled, and said, “It was worth a try.”

Senior hopes for championship run Coach says team will use initial games to ‘learn, improve’ MALLORY WEIL STAFF REPORTER | @mal_weil
As she enters her final season on the Ball State field hockey team, Tarel Teach longs for a Mid-American Conference title. “[Winning the MAC] is what we really want,” Teach said. “A [championship is the] major thing we all want.” As a junior last season, Teach led the Cardinals with 35 shot attempts, while tied for second on the team with four goals. The Cardinals finished 2013 with a record of 6-12, losing several games late in the season because of a lack of offense. Levi Kavanaugh, a sophomore forward, said starting this season with a win against David-
son on Saturday is imperative to the team’s success. “[Beating Davidson] will get all of our confidences up and leave us all in a good, happy mood going into the next couple of games,” she said. Last season, Kavanaugh led the Cardinals with seven goals and 14 points. Head coach Beth Maddox said she is looking for consistency more than anything in the game against Davidson. “We need to do the simple things right,” Maddox said. “Some days are harder than others, but they’re working together and trying to figure each other out. It’s a process to learn each other.” Maddox will enter the 2014 season with her most experienced roster while at Ball State, with only three freshmen on the roster. Freshman Carley Shannon said her transition from high
school to college has been difficult, but so far she has learned a lot. “We’re learning our strengths and weaknesses,” Shannon said. “Having a short time period before our first game is a little bit of a challenge, but nothing we can’t work through.” A four-year letter winner for Bruton High School in Williamsburg, Va., Shannon netted 49 goals and tallied 115 assists in her high school career. With Saturday’s match against the Wildcats scheduled for 2 p.m., Teach said she’s hopeful and excited for the season to begin. “Getting off to a good start is important, but it’s also important to know we are learning and growing,” she said. “Our first games are for us to learn and improve. Our Mid-American Conference games are later on ... that’s when we’ve grown into our full potential.”
The field hockey team meets in a circle after running during practice Tuesday at the Briner Sports Complex. The team plays at 2 p.m. Sunday against Davidson at Boone, N.C.
