A new addition to the Hamilton South eastern Schools student handbook ad dresses microaggres sions without punishing students who violate it. Instead, the new language is designed to facilitate conversations between students and administrators, teachers or guidance counselors to address why what was said could cause harm. The addition defines microaggressions as indirect intentional, or unintentional, dis crimination against people of marginalized groups. The new handbook language has been mostly accepted by members of the HSE community, but some people disagree with the new wording and have expressed displeasure on social media platforms. The handbook states: “Microaggressions can be defined as every day, subtle, in tentional or unintentional interactions or behaviors that communicate some sort of bias toward stigmatized, or culturally or historically marginalized groups. While Ham ilton Southeastern understands those indi viduals communicating a microaggression might not intend to express bias, the school recognizes the responsibility to educate students on the reality of bias perceptions.
Hamilton Southeastern Schools adds microaggression section to handbook
EDUCATION By Taylor Dixon taylor@youarecurrent.com
One person who does not support the new language is Diane Eaton, who served on the HSE school board from 2006 to 2014. She said the board should make decisions based on facts, and the school had no facts or statistics to justify updating the handbook.“Idonot believe they showed any data, and the school board should be data-driv en,” said Eaton, adding that the school board should focus on raising academic scores and statistics.
Buddenbaum said she is glad the school is addressing microaggressions in the new handbook and noted the backlash from so cial media is unnecessary.
One parent who supports the new ad dition is Bethann Buddenbaum, a mother of two Hamilton Southeastern High School graduates. She said her two daughters, who she and her husband adopted from China, are often “treated as white” when around their white parents. However, when they are on their own, they are “treated as Asian.” Her daughters, Fiona and Emma Reese, graduated from Hamilton Southeastern in 2017 and 2020, respectively. Buddenbaum said both of her daughters experienced microaggressions while attending HSE. She said while some interactions were inten tionally mean spirited, like asking if they enjoyed eating dog or cat, other instances were unintentional, such as being asked about China’s one-child policy because they were the only Asian people in the class.
The updated handbook was approved at a June 8 school board meeting and went into effect Aug. 5 at the start of the school year.
Issues regarding microaggressions may be addressed through restorative conversa tions led by school administration, teachers, and/or guidance counselors rather than pu nitive measures. Habitual occurrences could lead to consequences applicable to inappro priate conduct as defined in Section 28.”
“The manufactured anger over this hand book addition is disappointing, to say the least. It demonstrates a lack of empathy for others, which includes race, gender, sexual orientation and disability,” Buddenbaum said. “And that is exactly what this addi tion to the student handbook is seeking to do — help students understand that words matter.”HSEreleased a statement saying that it strives to prepare its 21,000 students both academically and behaviorally but wouldn’t comment beyond the statement, which reads:“We believe it is important to ensure our students are prepared for the ever-changing real world and how to navigate successfully in this new environment in which we all operate. The recent update to our student handbook provides staff the opportunity to hold restorative conversations about how an intentional or unintentional inter action that communicates some kind of bias between students can be effectively addressed.”
“The reason for adding the wording is so students who may not understand they are showing bias unintentionally, or those who do intentionally, understand that their careless use of words or actions have an impact on others, and affects the learning environment,” the post reads.

When Brian Bondus was a TV reporter for Fox 59 and CBS 4, he did a story on McKen zie awhoLeichtnam,haddiedofheartailment at age 20 in 2011. Leichtnam had giv en life to others as an organ donor. Bondus and Leichtnam graduated from Carmel High School in 2009, and both loved golf. Leichtnam aspired to become a sports broadcaster. “They had so many similarities. It had an amazing impact on Brian,” said Diane Bon dus, Brian’s mother. “He had always talked about it, but never followed through.” But after the story, Bondus immediately signed up to become an organ donor. Bon dus, a Carmel resident who had changed careers to become a commercial real estate agent, died Aug. 20, 2021, at age 31 from anaphylactic shock because of a severe peanut allergy. The inaugural Brian Bondus Memorial Golf Outing is set for Aug. 29 at Prairie View Golf Club in Carmel. The charity event is orga nized by ALO Property Group, where Bondus worked. Diane and her husband, Thom Bon dus, decided Indiana Donor Network would be the perfect fit to benefit for the first golf outing.ALOProperty Group President Ralph Balber figures a golf outing while supporting a charity is a per fect tribute for Brian Bondus. “Brian was a larger-than-life personality who was unbelievably charitable and unbelievably hard working,” Balber said. “In his three or four years, he did more than any other broker I’ve had in terms of setting meetings and meeting people. He was al ways there to lend a helping hand. “I promised his mother that his legacy would live on. We had decided a golf outing would be the best way because he had such a passion for golf.”

Members of the public will be able to get a look inside the Historic Ambassador House and Heritage Gardens in Fishers during an event planned for next month. The venue, which hosts community events, weddings and other gatherings, will offer public tours from 2 to 4 p.m. Sept. 18, said Robert Bowling, vice president of the Ambassador House board of directors.

He was kind of a class clown,” Dalton said. “We definitely got in lots of trouble together,” Dalton said.

Friends and acquaintances, such as former FHS classmate Sammie Marcotte, have fond memories of the fallen officer. Marcotte, who participated in marching band and drumline with Shahnavaz, remem bers his smile, contagious laugh and kind personality.“Wegotinto our fair share of shenani gans back then,” Marcotte said. “There were a handful of times where he would start (a) baseball (game) in the back percussion room, and we would be late to band class because we had to finish up the game and we would all be cracking up laughing be cause his laugh was so funny. And it was moments like that that we remember him by.”Marcotte also attended prom with Shahnavaz.“It’show every person wants their prom to go,” she said. “It was the limo and the dinner and dancing with good friends and good company, and his laugh and the way that he carried himself made that night unforgettable.”Marcottealso said Shahnavaz was a huge Purdue University and Pittsburgh Penguins
Law Enforcement Academy Capt. Mark Bridge said Shahnavaz excelled aca demically and was well-respected by peers. “Noah was an exemplary young man and recruit while he was here, and the law en forcement field is going to miss him,” Bridge said.Another friend from the law enforcement academy who graduated with Shahnavaz, Abigail Leath, who is now an officer with the Anderson Police Dept., said Shahnavaz did well at the academy. She recalled times he would be unsure how he would perform during a test and then score in the high 90s.Leath said Shahnavaz made an indelible impact on her life. “He taught me so much about life and then also police work,” Leath said. “He would want people to live their life to the fullest and laugh as much as he did. I would say no time with Noah would have ever been enough, but if you have somebody in your life that you love, I would say, hold him close, that’s what I would want you to do.”

Hours before Elwood Police Dept. Officer Noah Shahnavaz was fatally shot during a traffic stop in Madison County, he pulled up to the side of Joyner’s Hamburgers in Elwood and talked to muralist Theodore Winters. Throughout the day, Winters had been getting honks and waves from law enforcement officers who drove by a mural he was painting of a giant American flag on theThatbuilding.iswhy Shahnavaz, a 2016 Fishers High School graduate, stopped in front of the mural — to tell Winters how much he liked his “Thankartwork.youfor your service,” Winters, 29, said he told Shahnavaz. “I said, ‘Every time you drive by this, I want you to know that people my age still care about your service. Thank you for being a police officer.’ He looked at me and he said, ‘I love my job. I love what I do. And I love being a cop.’ And he smiled and he drove away.” Shahnavaz, 24, was killed a few hours later after making a traffic stop July 31 in Madison County. He was laid to rest Aug.6 at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis.
At approximately 2 a.m. July 31, Elwood Police Dept. Officer Noah Shahnavaz made a traffic stop on a 2012 Buick LaCrosse near the inter section of Ind. 37 and County Road 1100 N. in Madison County.

I’m not a doctor, but I play one on TV. And by TV, I mean the imaginary life I lead in my head, which in my defense, is based on both my extensive field experience while raising four children and my amazing internet-search skills. Usually, this confidence serves me well. I’ve avoided pointless trips to the pedi atrician, where they’ll just tell me it’s an untreatable virus, and at the other extreme, I know an emergency when I seeButone.for some reason, I completely missed the medical boat when self-di agnosing my injured right arm. You may recall I was 95 percent positive I had broken it, even though I hadn’t fallen or been in an accident. The orthopedic gently proved me wrong with an X-ray, and I begrudgingly accepted a diagnosis of over-use and old age. I could not, however, get on board with what the physical therapist told me, as it made no common sense that a rotary cuff issue would manifest as intense deltoid pain. And she refused to even examine me since I was only two weeks postCOVID-19. How could she possibly know what was going on with me? So, I didn’t do the prescribed exercises and allowed life to get in the way of follow-up visits. TakeUnfortunately,that! she was right about everything, and because I foolishly ignored sound, professional advice, I’m now facing something called a frozen shoulder, with an eight- to 10-month recovery period.

It is the time from July through Au gust when Sirius sets and rises with our sun. At least, it did about 700 B.C., when Greek poets spread lore wrought from the constellation Canis Major that the brightest star in the Northern Hemisphere was imagined dragging the sun into the early morning sky, bringing with it all the heat, humidity and accom panying discomfort of the hottest days of the summer season. With time, we have come to understand that the shift ing rotation of our planet in proximity to its sun is the culprit. Yet, despite our advancing scientific understanding, we assign the “dog days of summer” to the influence of the Dog Star. For most of us, these long, hot days urge us to remain indoors and keep the air conditioning adjusted to near shiv ering levels. For others, it signals the impending end of summer vacation and the return to a new year of school. Gone are the days when we imagined this an evil time with boiling oceans, diseased zombies, bad wine and mad dogs. Now, we mostly work to make sure that all remain hydrated and that those at risk can get shelter away from the heat of theFarmersday. prepare for the coming harvest. Summer resort towns plan for the final weeks of fun. Drivers are reminded to slow down for youngsters at intersections and school zones. And college students across America return to campus. They bring with them hope for a new year, expectation of con necting with old and new friends, and desire to advance in life. Sure, they will have a little fun — perhaps the concerns about cheap drink and zombies are not entirely misplaced — but they will return months from now as better versions of themselves. These “dog days” could be their “best friend.”

Fond recollections
Dick Wolfsie is an author, columnist and speaker. Contact him at wolfsie@aol.com. Former Indianapolis Colts sportscaster Bob Lamey revered the broadcaster as well. He agreed with Carl’s sentiment that you always felt you knew Scully, that he was part of your family … even more so than the players were. According to Lamey, one of Scully’s greatest skills was to adjust his style to the broadcasting situation. Scully had a different presentation for day versus night games. During summer afternoon con tests, when there were a lot of fami lies in attendance, he might give a little extra explanation for something like a squeeze play. But at night, he was talking to true fans, not just folks look ing for a pleasant afternoon’s entertainment. “They knew what a squeeze bunt was,” Lamey mused. “No explanation needed.”
$350 OFF New Water Softener Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Want to know who the G.O.A.T. is (The Greatest of All Time) for any particular en deavor? If you google G.O.A.T. for baseball announcers, Vin Scully is almost always No. 1. Scully passed away recently at the age of 94. He called Dodgers games for 67 years, both in Brooklyn and LA. Scully was also a poet and a painter. On the radio, he created vivid pic tures of what was happening on the field, but in the TV booth, he helped the viewer understand the game, and when great ball,happenedmomentsinbaselikeHenryAaron’s homerun to break Babe Ruth’s record — he let the cheers of the crowd tell the story. After Aaron hit that historic blast, Scully retreated to the restroom to heed nature’s call. He knew the next two minutes of the game did not require “his” call. When he returned to the mic, that’s when you heard his poetry. Carl Erskine, Hoosier native and former Major League Baseball pitcher, is the only living Dodgers link to the Jackie Robinson age of baseball, covering the late ’40s and ’50s (with one exception: Robinson’s widow, Rachel, just celebrated her 100th birthday). I spoke to Carl the other day in Anderson, where he and his wife, Betty, will celebrate their 75th anniversary in October. Carl explained to me what made Scully great.“You always felt he was talking directly to you,” Carl said. “You don’t get that feeling today with many broadcasters. The voice of the announcer is part of people’s lives. “
“It was always about the game and the fans and the players, and even if you were not a Dodgers fan, he made the game fun. There will never be another one like him.”
“I never once heard Vince Scully talk about himself,” Lamey said. “It was always about the game and the fans and the play ers, and even if you were not a Dodgers fan, he made the game fun. There will never be another one like him.”
As a kid, I kept a transistor radio under my pillow, falling asleep to Vin’s voice, while he described a Jackie Robinson steal or a Carl Erskine overhand curveball. Now, you may not agree that Vin Scully was the G.O.A.T., but this week it has been my honor to go to bat for him.

PARENTING Breastfeeding
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recently updated their guidelines around breastfeeding, now sup porting continued breast feeding until two years or beyond, as mutually desired by the mother and child. Breast milk is and always has been the most optimal source of nutrition for a growing baby, and if breastfeeding is an option for the mother, that is the top recommended practice for giving babies the nutrients they need.
The World Health Organization (WHO) actively promotes breastfeeding as the best source of nourishment for infants and young children. Breast milk is specifically formulated for optimal nutrition for a new born. The composition of breast milk chang es to match a baby’s needs as it grows and its nutritional requirements change. Babies also receive immune support from the an tibodies provided in breast milk, as breast milk offers immunity in the early stages of life before a baby can receive vaccinations.
Get
In fact, studies found that breast milk of mothers vaccinated for COVID-19 carry anti bodies against the virus. In addition to the ample amount of health benefits, breast milk is economical ly favorable. Due to an infant’s changing routine, many find breastfeeding to be the most convenient feeding option due to the ability to breastfeed anytime, anywhere. Breastfeeding can help lift financial burdens associated with feeding as it offers a free, nutritional food source for babies.

In the opening concert Aug. 25-26, excerpts or entire pieces represent six distinctly different pieces from the GHDT repertoire.Hancock said numerous factors are in volved in the selection of pieces to include in repertoire programs, such as length and style, how the program can be structured, how the costumes complement each other and what pieces showcase the current dancers well. “All of this can make for a challenging selection process,” Hancock said. “With such a large repertoire it is impossible to tell the complete history of the company in one season, but the 2022-23 season will offer some insight on how the com pany has survived and flourished over the years. Programming is set a minimum of one to two years in advance. For all the productions planned this season, we have the pieces and/or excerpts that will be in each production determined. “However, with repertoire productions, there can be some freedom to make changes, if needed. The beauty of reper toire concerts is that audiences are en tertained with a variety of shorter works and can experience the varied textures of dance and storytelling.”

The Indianapolis resident is quite familiar with Buffett’s repertoire because her uncle, Tom “T.C.” Mitchell, was a saxophonist for Buffett’s Coral Reefer Band from 1994 to 2005. Mitchell performed on 15 of Buffett’s albums.“Seeing and hearing my uncle follow his passion and succeeding in an industry that can be tough has been an inspiration to me all my life,” Scharbrough said. Mitchell finds it fitting that his niece is now in a musical featuring Buffett’s songs. “Life is chock-full of coincidences,” he said. “Of course, I can only chuckle at the idea of my dear niece also coming into contact with Mr. Buffett’s world. I enjoyed my time as a Coral Reefer and wish her, and (Beef & Boards) audiences, a ‘Lovely Cruise’ as well. Speaking of wheels within wheels, I remember Beef & Boards well from seeing shows there as a kid. “In fact, I attended a concert there that did a lot to put me on the path toward be coming a musician. This is all happy stuff to ponder.”Scharbrough, naturally, has many favorite tunes.“I’ve been jamming out to the soundtrack for months,” she said. “Each time the next MUSICAL Tom “T.C.” Mitchell played the saxophone for Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Reefer Band from 1994 to 2005.

The production has not been without challenges, though. “It’s a challenge in memorization, that’s for sure,” said Scharbrough, whose maiden name is Mitchell. “There’s lots of music and choreography, all to be learned in a very short amount of time.”

Scharbrough plays the role of Jennifer and is part of the ensemble of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre’s production of “Escape to Margaritaville” Aug. 18 to Oct. 2 at the Indianapolis venue. The musical come dy, written by Greg Garcia and actor Mike O’Malley, features Jimmy Buffett’s songs.“I’m excited to share this show with the audiences. They’re really going to love the high energy and fast-paced songs and dances as well as the funny and poignant script,” Scharbrough said. “The cast is ex ceptional, and I’m just amazed with their talent.

Commentary by Don Knebel Today, in our ongoing road trip, we come to the Gettysburg National Cemetery, the site of Abraham Lincoln’s fa mousWhenaddress.theBattle of Gettys burg ended July 4, 1863, after three days of ferocious fighting, hundreds of soldiers from both sides lay dead or dying in the streets and fields in and around Gettysburg, Penn. Thousands more lay in shallow graves where they had fallen. It soon became clear that Gettysburg, with a population of 2,400, could not provide proper burials for all the fallen Union soldiers. As a result, the Com monwealth of Pennsylvania purchased 17 acres atop Cemetery Hill, near where Union soldiers had beaten back “Pickett’s Charge,” for a cemetery. Over several months, 3,512 Union dead were buried in concentric semicircles. Eighteen semicircles included bodies from the 18 states that had provided volunteers. Another semicircle contained bodies of United States Regulars. Another 979 bodies, never identified even as to their state, were buried in three other sections. On Nov. 18, 1863, President Lincoln came to Gettysburg by train and spent the night at the home of David Wills, a Gettysburg attorney instrumental in the cemetery’s creation. The next day, following a two–hour speech by Edward Everett of Massachu setts, Lincoln delivered the 272 words of the Gettysburg Address that he believed the world would not “long remember.” In 1865, Massachusetts commissioned the Soldiers’ National Memorial, to be placed in the center of the semicircles, near where Everett and Lincoln spoke. The 60-foottall monument, dedicated on July 1, 1869, includes a statue at the top signifying liberty. Four smaller statues represent War, History, Peace, and Plenty. In January 1912, the Lincoln Address Memorial was erected about 300 yards from where Lincoln made his famous speech. Today, the train station where Lincoln arrived in Gettysburg and the home of David Wills are popular museums. Soldiers’ National Monument at Gettysburg National Cemetery. (Photos by Don Knebel).

I’m more interested in funky demonyms (and, boy, there are plenty of them). For instance, people in Mexico City are called “Capitalinos,” as Mexico City is the capital of Mexico. Those living in Tangier, Moroc co, are proud “Tangerines.”

GRAMMAR GUY Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
I love being at home. It’s where I sleep. It’s where I write. Home is where I watch Netflix. It’s an amazing place. I would be content to stay at home all the time if it weren’t for the fact that my house isn’t also a coffee shop.We have some interesting names for people where I live. In the state of Indi ana, we’re referred to as “Hoosiers.” My home state, Oklahoma, calls its inhab itants “Okies” or “Oklahomans.” While I understand “Okie,” the “Hoosier” moniker is an ongoing mystery. This got me wondering: Is there a name for the nickname we apply to people from certain places? Of course, there is! Demonyms are the words we use for groups of people from different places. We get the word “demonym” from the Greek words “demos” (people, citizens, tribes people) and “nym” (name). I grew up in Norman, Okla., where its residents are called “Normanites.” Now, I live in Noblesville, Ind., where I hope we are called “Noblesvillains,” but that can’t be right. People in New York are New Yorkers. Folks in Nebraska are Nebraskans. Yawn.

I can’t pronounce the word for people from Utah without yawning; I can’t even type it. They’re called “Utahns,” which just reminds me of a yawn. Sorry for making you yawn — blame the Utahns. Crossing the U.S., residents of Arkansas are called “Arkensawyers,” although many will contend they are called “Arkansans.” For some reason, all I imagine when I hear “Arkensawyer” is Tom Sawyer floating down the Mississippi in a boat big enough to fit two of every animal.
