WOMEN
MEN
RED LIPS, PIXIE HAIR AND ANIMAL PRINT were just a few of the fashions trending in 2010. The trends challenged the “bigger is better” mantra by incorporating animal prints and bright colors, even mixing the two.
For men in 2010, the trends focused on RESTOCKING THE BASICS, adding more color and dressing up when they felt like dressing down.
UGGS originated in Australia and were meant to be for surfers who just finished a gnarly ride. They somehow made their way to Ball State onto the feet of nearly every woman on campus. As the boots are made with soft sheepskin, they’re popular in the winter despite their horrible traction, expensive price tag and notso-stylish look. YOGA PANTS are designed for yoga. But in 2012, yoga pants busted out of the studio and onto the streets. Women claim to wear the pants because of the comfort they provide, and they are now seen as an everyday outfit choice.
In 2013, it was all about the HIGH-WAISTED SHORTS. Girls and women from all over went to thrift shops and Goodwill to find them. Or, in some cases, jeans they cut into shorts. No word on a response from the nation’s moms. Now that the spring is upon us, so are the dresses. If you look out along the sidewalks, it’s an almost guarantee you’ll see long, colorful MAXI DRESSES floating through the warm breeze.
SADDLE SHOES and blazers were in as to dress up the men for the 2011 season. Men were wanting to look leaner and slimmer and have a cleaner look with their wardrobe. BOWTIES started gaining popularity to add dapper flair to men’s and women’s outfits. The Doctor from “Doctor Who” helped kickstart this trend as Matt Smith donned his signature burgundy bow tie and stated “bow ties are cool.”
POLKA DOT TIES AND FAUX FUR made a trend on men’s fashion for 2012. The bomber squad jackets also returned to give every guy that “Top Gun” look. Long BEARDS. Short beards. Clean beards. Beards are the thing. This growing trend is all the talk.
NEON AND FLORAL might seem like an odd combination, but the trainers and patterns are once again striking men’s fashion across the world. Chic is meeting classy, giving men a causal, but comfortable look for all seasons.

‘Toy Story 3’ No one will ever forget the ending of Pixar’s final movie of the heartwarming trilogy. For those that had grown up with “Toy Story,” Andy heading off to college really hit home — after all, Andy was the Class of 2014’s age. The film boasted a $415 million gross. ‘Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows: Part 2’ This was the last movie in the epic journey that consumed most of our childhoods. As Harry Potter grew, we grew. It was in 2011 when we witnessed the end of this beautiful era. The conclusion of the film franchise pulled a $1.34 billion worldwide gross.

‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2’ “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2” was the last movie in the “Twilight” saga. Though the movie received three stars on IMDb and 48 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, it didn’t lack in popularity, grossing $141.3 million its opening weekend. It seemed as though all the gossip was about vampires or werewolves, and the Team Edward vs. Team Jacob debate still lives on today. ‘The Hunger Games: Catching Fire’ “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” is the second movie in the series. This movie, based on the book, opened in the box office in November 2013 and became an instant success, bringing in more than $161.1 million domestically its opening weekend. Along with the movie, Jennifer Lawrence, who plays Katniss Everdeen, continued to be a hit with fans. The movie ended up winning numerous awards. ‘Divergent’ Based off the best-selling novel dystopian young-adult by Veronica Roth, the film is the first of three in the “Divergent” series, continuing the trend of books into movies. The night the film was released, it made $4.9 million.

Stan Parrish left the Ball State football program following the 2010-11 season, where he led the team to a 4-8 overall record. Then Athletic Director Tom Collins hired Pete Lembo in December 2010. In his first season with the team, Lembo coached Ball State to a 6-6 record with a 4-4 mark in MidAmerican Conference play. The team increased its win total in each of the next two seasons under Lembo. The 2012 team finished with a 9-4 record, while the 2013 team finished with a 10-3 record. The 10-win season was just the third in Ball State history. Senior quarterback Keith Wenning led a record-breaking offense. The Cardinals completed the most passes in school history with 299 and accrued a school-record 501 total points. With appearances in the Beef ‘O’ Brady’s Bowl and the GoDaddy Bowl, Ball State competed in back-to-back bowl games for the second time in school history. Lembo received a five-year contract extension and a pay raise in March 2014, following approval from the Ball State Board of Trustees. –

GYMNASTICS
WOMEN’S TENNIS Max Norris was named the fifth women’s tennis head coach in Ball State history Dec. 8, 2013. He had previously served as an assistant coach at Alabama. Norris studied at Ball State and worked as a student assistant for the men’s tennis team in 2009-10. He volunteered for the team in 2008. Athletic Director Bill Scholl said in a press release that he was glad to hire someone with a Ball State history. “He has a background in tennis throughout the Midwest and was a part of our tradition rich men’s tennis program for a few years,” Scholl said. “He is a former collegiate student-athlete and has experience with some of the top tennis programs in the country. We are looking forward to his joining the Ball State family.” Norris led Ball State to a 16-8 record in his regular season with the team. Ball State’s 6-2 record in MAC play was the best in school history.
Former head gymnastics coach Nadalie Walsh left Ball State on June 29, 2013, after six seasons with the team. She was hired by Utah State following a 6-11 season with Ball State. An athletics media relations major confirmed to The Daily News on Aug. 21, 2013, that Ball State hired Joanna Saleem. She had previously worked as a volunteer with the team. Brooklyn Schumacher, then a junior on the team, said Saleem was a great candidate. “She’s got a super light spirit in the gym,” Schumacher said at the time. “That’s really nice to work with. I know last year we all really appreciated it because [balance beam] had been a hard event for us.” Saleem coached Ball State to a 3-11 overall record in her first season with the team. –

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL Following the resignation of Kelly Packard after back-to-back 9-21 seasons Athletic Director Bill Scholl hired Brady Sallee in May 2012. Sallee quickly found success with the team. In his first season, Ball State earned the No. 5 seed in the MidAmerican Conference Tournament, and made it to the Sweet 16 of the WNIT in 2013. When his team was 3-10 and on the cusp of yet another disappointing season, Sallee didn’t ever feel pressured by Scholl. “He was there in the good and the bad,” Sallee said. “And the first one to pat me on the back and say ‘Brady, we see what you’re doing. We see how it’s coming together, and it’s not showing up in wins yet, but keep believing. We’re believing.’ He was a great ambassador for me and the program.” In his second year with the program, Sallee led Ball State to a 18-17 overall record and an appearance in the MAC Championship game and WNIT first round. –

BASEBALL Before Athletic Director Bill Scholl was hired, the Ball State baseball team was in the middle of a season that would end at 14-36, its third straight finish with a record of .500 or below. Scholl introduced Rich Maloney as Ball State’s head baseball coach on June 22, 2012. Maloney previously coached at Ball State from 1996 until 2002. For him, the hire was a chance to reunite with old acquaintances. “When you look at all the friends, and I mean, I have so many friends,” Maloney said. “How many guys get to leave a place to chase a dream — because I always had a dream of going to Michigan — [and] be successful for 10 years and through an uncanny series of events be able to have the opportunity to come back to a place that you love and where you’re very well received.” In his first season back with Ball State, Maloney led the team to a 31-24 overall record.

Athletic Director Bill Scholl announced March 14, 2013, that Billy Taylor wouldn’t return for his seventh season as men’s basketball coach. In a phone interview, Scholl said there wasn’t one measurement making or breaking the season, but things weren’t progressing fast enough to let Taylor finish out his contract. “What we were looking for was had the program developed to the point where we could legitimately say we were consistently competing for [Mid-American Conference] Championships,” Scholl said at the time. “I think we were looking for an indication as the season played out whether we were gaining on that goal, and in the end the sense was we hadn’t.” On April 10, 2013, Scholl and university President Jo Ann Gora introduced James Whitford as the 19th head coach in Ball State history in front of a sizable crowd in the Alumni Lounge. There was a buzz in the room as Gora opened with statements about returning the program to an era of greatness and Whitford echoed that excitement. “When the Ball State job opened up, my mouth was watering and I was itching in my seat to get the job,” Whitford said. In his first season with Ball State, Whitford led the team to a 5-25 overall record, and a 2-16 mark in MAC play.

COMMUTING?
The Ball State football team saw an increase in attendance in three seasons prior to the 2013-14 season. In 2010, the team averaged 8,947 people at each home game. By 2012, that number had increased to 12,930. The team averaged 13,816 at each game in 2013-14. Here’s a look at the attendance numbers from each contest.
Illinois State: 16,327 | Aug. 29, 2013
The crowd at Ball State’s season opener was the largest for a home opener in the last six seasons, surpassing the 2009 opener’s attendance of 16,054. At the time, Athletic Director Bill Scholl was hesitant to call the numbers more than “an opening day phenomenon.” Scholl, head coach Pete Lembo and the rest of the athletic department had made strides to increase attendance and improve the atmosphere at football games. The student rewards program, Countdown 2 Kickoff and a video board were used to get more students and the Muncie community to come watch Ball State. The incentives helped, but Scholl continued to put more weight on creating a winning culture with the football program. “You start to put good years back to back to back, and that’s what creates a fan base,” Scholl said. “But if you want to sustain that fan base, you have to be good for a long period of time. That’s what we’re striving for.”
Army: 15,106 | Sept. 7, 2013 Toledo: 18,329 | Sept. 28, 2013
Two home games later, it became clear that the numbers were no fluke. The highest attendance of the season came during Family Weekend against Toledo. It was the highest since Ball State went undefeated in MAC play in 2008. While attendance against Army dipped to 15,106 earlier in the month, 18,329 people poured into Scheumann Stadium to see Ball State defeat Toledo.
Scholl said attendance is gradually improving. “I’ve been using the word momentum,” Scholl said. “I think there’s a lot of momentum gathering, and I think our fans are realizing how much fun it is to come out and watch the football team.”
Kent State: 16,861 | Oct. 12, 2013 Central Michigan: 9,494 | Nov. 6, 2013
Attendance suffered against Central Michigan despite efforts from the Ball State Dance Marathon to boost attendance. The student group partnered with Ball State Athletics for Project 10,000, in an attempt to get 10,000 students to attend the home game. If they had succeeded, athletics would have paid the group $10,000 for Riley Hospital for Children. Even if 5,000 students or more attended, athletics promised to pay a dollar for each student, under $10,000. Only 2,500 students attended the game, meeting about one quarter of the Project 10,000 goal. In total, 9,494 people total showed up to the game. Although they didn’t reach either benchmark, deputy athletic director Brian Hardin said an anonymous donor offered BSUDM $2,500 for the hard work. That helped start the group’s annual fundraiser for the hospital. “We’re thrilled with the work they did on the front end, and we’re happy they were able to find an anonymous donor to come forward and say, for all of the hard work and effort they put in, that they wanted to give $2,500,” Hardin said.
Miami: 6,784 | Nov. 29, 2013
Ball State’s lowest attendance of the season by far came, unsurprisingly, at a game during Thanksgiving Break, a time when most students leave Muncie. - STAFF REPORTS

Citing federal regulations, Provost Terry King said professors would be held accountable to make up the missed class time. “The university will develop a contingency plan for future semesters so that students and faculty will immediately know what to expect when classes are canceled,” the email said.
BACKLASH
After the announcement, some students took to Twitter asking if it was a joke. “You must be a special kind of stupid if you think that anyone is going to Saturday classes, Ball State,” @alyssaleanne11 tweeted.
SPRING SNOW
Students woke up to a light snow covering cars and sidewalks, 26 days into spring. Nearly one inch of snow fell April 15 in Muncie, after five days of temperatures in the 60s and 70s. “My first reaction when it was snowing was something along the lines of like, ‘Please no,’” freshman English education major Joel Summer said.

SATURDAY CLASSES
In March, months ahead of traditional road repair weather, Muncie road crews had already spent $16,000 more than last year. Although the crews can fill around 100 potholes each day, students were still worried about keeping their cars out of the ditch when weaving between potholes. Mindy Wesley, a freshman vocal performance major, said she worried about her vehicle. “Basically, I’m afraid my car is going to explode,” she said at the time. “I honestly forgot about [potholes] because the ice filled [them] up and now, I’ll probably have to get new tires.” Junior computer technology major Ryan Zwilling said he preferred driving on the snow because it smoothed out the roads. After the snow melted, he said potholes became a problem near his apartment in University Estates. “[The road near my apartment] gets a lot of traffic, and you have to try and dodge the potholes,” he said. “But I don’t think it will kill my car.”
COST OF STORM CLEANUP
Ball State crews worked overtime to clear campus after extreme weather dropped more than a foot of snow. Here is a breakdown of cost, resources and time. In January

As temperatures plunged to a 20-year record low, President Jo Ann Gora canceled classes for the first time in many years Jan. 6 and Jan. 7. However, this caused making up class time on two Fridays and two Saturdays. The National Weather Service said wind chills fell as far as negative 28 degrees, which could cause frostbite in 30 minutes. Muncie declared a snow emergency and warned people to stay off streets.

CANCELING CLASSES
@oliviaromero echoed several people’s sentiments that students can’t cancel plans to make up class time. “Nobody has time to make up syllabus week on Friday and Saturday. Ball State you’re so confused. #isthisajoke,” she posted. A petition on Change.org was created looking to get Ball State to “cancel Saturday makeup days.” The petition eventually reached more than 500 signatures, but the makeup classes were not canceled.
Jan
The early months of 2014 were some of the coldest in state history. University snow removal faculty worked overtime throughout January and February to clear campus so students could get to class safely. Jean Wheat, a landscape worker, said in February that the extreme snow and ice wasn’t anything new, but overworking was difficult. “We’ve been working a lot of hours, and we’re seeing more of our fellow workers than our family members,” she said. “So it’s been really tough.” After the snow in mid-April, Indiana’s snowfall for the year reached 55.7 inches, making the season the state’s third highest snowfall recorded.

THREE SHOUTS OF GUN
A three-hour search for a gunman began Nov. 18, 2013, after a student heard someone shouting “gun” three times in the Student Recreation and Wellness Center. At least six different police departments came to campus for the partial lockdown. Police tape closed off the intersection of McKinley and Neely avenues as police secured the Lewellen Aquatic Center, the Health and Physical Activity Building, Worthen Arena and the rec center. The search didn’t stop several students from standing around the buildings, mostly along McKinley Avenue.
A REAL THREAT
People who police sent to the Architec-
ture Building were startled when an officer’s gun went off by accident around 5:48 p.m., alarming police and others when it fired into the ground. The gun belonged to an Eaton, Ind., officer. After the discharge, police told nearby students to put their hands up, briefly pointing a gun at one student near the front of the group.
@BALLSTATE_ALERT
The 9-day-old university Twitter account went from roughly 10 followers to more than 4,700 followers when it was used for the first time during the emergency. Tony Proudfoot, a university spokesman, said the university created the account because it had received complains from

YEAR IN REVIEW students that they weren’t updated after a similar incident in March 2013 when there was a report of a potential gunman.
ALL-CLEAR
An all-clear was issued after police didn’t find a suspect by 7:53 p.m. Students who were inside the searched structures were moved to the Architecture Building, and after a light search, they were released.
PAST THREATS ON CAMPUS
2012 BOMB THREAT
On Feb. 20, 2012, the Student Recreation and Wellness Center’s Gym 2 and locker rooms were evacuated after an employee reported a bomb threat written in something similar to chapstick in the women’s locker room. The University Police Department officers blocked people from leaving the lobby of the rec center. Students were sent another emergency notification minutes later that told students not in Gym 2 or locker rooms to stay where they were. The campus wasn’t shut down and classes continued.

2013 POTENTIAL GUNMAN
At 8 a.m. March 11, 2013, an emergency alert was sent to Ball State students warning them to remain in a secure place. The alert said a white man with a medium build was seen walking near Bracken Library with what appeared to be a gun. UPD gave the all-clear after 90 minutes spent searching the area, and they found no suspects. The university didn’t shut down campus officially, and some classes remained in session.

The search in 2004 for President Jo Ann Gora was closed, which means names of finalists were not released, angering some students and faculty. Jayson Manship, Student Government Association president at the time, criticized student representation on the search committee in a statement during the search. “Students have always been underrepresented when it comes to governance-related issues,” he said in a 2004 statement. “Apparently, the students have once again been overlooked.” Ball State also was involved in a multimillion dollar lawsuit after a University Police Officer shot and killed student Michael McKinney while responding to a burglary call.
Ball State President Jo Ann Gora waves to the crowd at the Homecoming Parade on the morning of Oct. 12. Muncie Mayor Dennis Tyler also was in the parade.
Nation’s largest geothermal project
In May 2009, the university started a twophase geothermal project. Phase one was completed in March 2012, and Ball State was able to shut down two coal-fired boilers. When complete, the system will provide heating and cooling to more than 45 buildings on campus. The university estimated the system will save the university $2 million each year
and reduce Ball State’s carbon footprint in half. It is the largest geothermal district energy system in the United States.
Academic freedom controversy
Gora spoke out against the teaching of intelligent design in science courses, following accusations that astronomy assistant professor Eric Hedin taught intelligent design in his honors colloquium. The Freedom From Religion Foundation sent a letter to say that Hedin was teaching intelligent design in the class. “The question is not one of academic freedom, but one of academic integrity,” she said. “Said simply, to allow intelligent design to be presented to science students as a valid scientific theory would violate the academic integrity of the course, as it would fail to accurately represent the con-
STUDENTS SEE LOWEST TUITION INCREASE SINCE 1976 After sweeping budget cuts and annual tuition increases of around 4.5 percent, students received a break starting this year. Ball State’s Board of Trustees approved a 2 percent increase for 2013-14 and 2014-15, the lowest increase since 1976. The increase, though unusual, was still more than Indiana University-Bloomington’s 1.75 percent increase and Purdue University’s freeze on tuition. Indiana gave Ball State an increase in appropriations, which allowed the university to keep prices lower. Randy Howard, vice president for business affairs and treasurer, said June 2013 that the small increase was a result of several factors
Q: Do you like the nickname “JoGo”? A: Somebody told me that a few years ago that that was my nickname. I actually think that is a great nickname, I do. When I think of all the terrible nicknames I could have, I am happy with that. I’ll take that. ... I don’t know how that got started and I don’t know when somebody told me that, but only in the last year or two have I known that that’s my nickname. Q: I think it’s like a celebrity name. A: J Lo and me, that’s great, now I’m even more flattered. What do they call Angelina and Brad? Brangelina. I hadn’t even thought of it that way. Well that’s very flattering, I’m very flattered now.
ON BEING A FEMALE PRESIDENT
The birth of Education Redefined
In 2007, Gora launched the strategic plan Education Redefined. It lasted until 2012 and focused on immersive learning. The initiative became the “hallmark” of a Ball State education. During that time period, about 16,400 students from all seven colleges in the university partnered with community members for immersive learning projects.

sensus of science scholars.” The university reviewed the course and is implementing annual reviews for each honors course.
Planning for the future
Gora worked with university officials and architecture firm SmithGroupJJR to plan the next 20 years of change to Ball State’s campus. Topping the list of major changes is a potential Academic East Quad that would include lab space and immersive learning space. Accompanying the quad would be an East Mall, a walkway to connect the space to campus. It would cover the area between Pruis Hall and the Emens Parking Garage. However, not all of the land is currently owned by the university.
Q: What did it mean to you to be the first female president to lead a public university in Indiana, and how has that perception changed? A: I think a lot has changed in the last 10 years and I think in 2004, it was the headline in the local newspaper. So, it was big news in 2004. I found Indiana to be a very welcoming state, I really didn’t feel that there were any issues about being a woman president of a public research university and sometimes, I thought it was an advantage in the sense that I had a lot of name recognition early on because of that. There was a lot of attention that was paid to the appointment and I thought, in the long run, that that was adventitious to the university. Q: Do you think it would be equally as big of a deal now? A: No, I don’t think so because, you know, Purdue has had a woman president, the president of USI is a woman, so no, I think it would be less of a headline, shall we say now than 10 years ago. ... I think that’s very positive.

BREAKING DOWN,

afhovorka@bsu.edu
JOHNSON A COMPLEX
Ball State recruited Indianapolis contractor Shiel Sexton Company Inc. to renovate Johnson A Complex. The project cost the university $30,422,000. The residence hall will have larger rooms, semi-private bathrooms, air conditioning and 591 beds. The building was built in 1969, and students will move in Fall 2015.
GEOTHERMAL
In May 2009, Ball State began a $70 million, two-phase project of replacing its World War I heating system with a environmentally friendly geothermal plant. Phase one was completed in 2012 and dedicated March 20, 2012. Phase two’s projected completion is the winter of 2015-16. The plant aims to save Ball State $1 million to $2 million annually.
TEACHERS COLLEGE
Ball State revealed the $17 million renovated Teachers College on March 19. Renovations took two years, and the building was last renovated in 1968. Changes made to the building mainly concerned updating the structure to conform with the rest of the university’s look. Renovations covered most of the building’s 126,000 square feet.
Studebaker Hall East was rededicated Jan. 10, 2013, after renovations starting in 2011. It experienced numerous delays, pushing back the completion date of March 31, 2012. It was the first time a construction project on campus wasn’t completed as scheduled. Students moved in October 2012.
NORTH QUAD
ART MUSEUM
The David Owsley Museum of Art completed its 10-month, $3.6 million renovations in 2013. Four new galleries were added, which was a 50 percent increase in gallery space. The new galleries displayed works from China, India and Japan.
MCKINLEY AVENUE
In the summer of 2011, the university dug up McKinley Avenue near the Scramble Light at McKinley and Riverside avenues for three months. This made the intersection and roads larger and added medians. It also made way for the burying of geothermal pipes. Changes to the road cost $549,279. The construction made the scramble feature run at all hours of the day and required people to activate the scramble. Upgrades also changed the chirping to a verbal countdown.

The North Quad’s dedication of its renovation took place Feb. 8, 2012. Construction took place from May 2010 to December 2011 and included 20,300 square feet of new classroom and office space. The building was built in 1926.
