Trustees approve increased housing prices FROM IDS REPORTS
The IU Board of Trustees approved the new on-campus room and board rates Friday for the 2014-15 academic year. The new rates will vary depending on students’ choices of housing and meal plans. The cost of the most common room and board package will increase by 3.76 percent from this year to next. It is currently $9,149 and will become $9,493 next year, an increase of $344. This plan includes a doubleoccupancy, air-conditioned room in the residence halls, as well as a standard meal plan. The meal plan will increase in price by 1.6 percent, from $3,200 to $3,250. Demand for on-campus housing has remained strong, according to an IU press release. There is nearly 95 percent occupancy this year with 12,240 students living in residence halls and SEE TRUSTEES, PAGE 6

MAC memorial honors Jacobs alumna Kidd BY ALISON GRAHAM akgraham@indiana.edu
IU alumna Sarah Kidd was the first woman to be accepted into the conducting program at the New England conservatory in 2012. The 27-year-old Jacobs School of Music graduate grew up in Bloomington and cultivated her passion for music at Bloomington High School North. Heavily involved with the music and band program in high school, she worked with the Musical Arts Center even before she became a student at IU. She graduated from Jacobs with a Music Performance degree in cello in 2009. Her musical career began at the
MAC, her father said. And on Sunday, the conductor’s journey ended there. Friends and family held a memorial at the MAC to honor Kidd on Sunday after she died Jan. 28 from a cancer of unknown origin. She was always working toward her goals, her father Gary Kidd said at the memorial. He gave the introduction at Sunday’s ceremony, thanking everyone for coming and for the support his family had received from Sarah’s friends and loved ones. As he stepped off the podium, wiping tears from his eyes, seven string players picked up their instruments and began to play composer Samuel Barber’s “Adagio for Strings.”
“If you have a dream or an ambition, really test yourself to see how far you can take it. That’s what Sarah did.” Hugh Wolff, head of NEC conducting program
Previous professors, grade school friends and high school band directors filed up to the podium to offer their memories of Sarah. Her dream was to become a great conductor, someone who could make incredible music with orchestras and pursue her passion. She was pursuing a career in a male-dominated field, but that never stopped her, or even fazed her, when she stepped up to the podium before any performance, according to an article she wrote in March 2010 for the Juilliard Journal.
“Thanks to the women who have come before me, I was able to pursue my passion and imagine making music with great orchestras someday,” she wrote. Jacobs only offers a master’s program in conducting. Sarah considered continuing her studies in Bloomington after graduation, but was persuaded otherwise by her conducting professor, David Effron. Effron told her to pursue new experiences instead of staying in the SEE JACOBS, PAGE 6
Hoosiers’ misstep could hurt postseason opportunities BY ALDEN WOODS aldwoods@indiana.edu
On Feb. 7, IU was a short stretch of good basketball away from an NCAA Tournament at-large berth. The Hoosiers sat at 14-8, 4-5 in the Big Ten. They had defeated two top-10 teams — handing then-No. 3 Wisconsin its first loss of the season and beating then-No. 10 Michigan — in their conference schedule, and were riding momentum from the Michigan victory into Minneapolis to take on a depleted Golden Gophers team. At No. 70 in the national Ratings Percentage Index, IU was no shoo-in to the postseason’s most prestigious tournament, but was facing a stretch of three consecutive bottom-half Big Ten teams that could bolster its postseason résumé before returning to
the conference’s elite. The formula was simple — beat Minnesota (then 4-6 in Big Ten play), Penn State (3-8) and Purdue (4-7) and get ready for a finishing stretch of four ranked opponents in six games. IU didn’t follow the script. More than a week later, IU (1411, 4-8) finds itself in ninth place in the Big Ten after three consecutive losses. The Hoosiers have plummeted to No. 99 in the national RPI and now must collect a handful of wins against No. 15 Iowa, No. 21 Wisconsin, No. 20 Ohio State and No. 18 Michigan as well as beating Northwestern and Nebraska, two teams IU has already lost to this season, to slide into the NCAA Tournament field. Despite his team’s poor form, IU Coach Tom Crean said he has yet to
concern himself with IU’s long-term prospects. “I don’t think like that,” Crean said. “That’s not how I’m built, that’s not how I’m going to coach the team. That’s what we have to work through.” Much of IU’s difficulty in its past three games can be attributed to offensive struggles. The Hoosiers have averaged only 63 points during that stretch, well behind their season average of 73.4 points per game. Crean said that “quite a bit” of his team’s performance has been mental, but that he will not look to overanalyze its recent woes and will instead ask his players to rely on each other. “You point it out in film,” he said. “I’m not big on bringing a team

SPH student oversees community HIV tests BY ANNA HYZY akhyzy@indiana.edu
Heydi Correa-Encarnacion sat in the upstairs library of the La Casa Latino Cultural Center just like she does every Monday. She was waiting for someone to come through for an HIV test. The School of Public Health graduate student conducts weekly free HIV testing at La Casa through an IU Health Bloomington program called Postive Link. She is also a health educator. “HIV is seen as
something that people don’t speak of in the community,” she said. “It’s kind of voodoo to talk about.” Correa-Encarnacion seeks to provide resources to the Latino community and the IU community as a whole. It was she who developed the partnership with La Casa two years ago. “Basically, one of the things that the center tries to do is to look at students in a holistic way, and health is one of them,” La Casa Director Lillian Casillas said. When students come for testing at La Casa, CorreaEncarnacion helps them
to fill out forms, including consent forms and questionnaires about their sexual history for the last 12 months. “If for some reason we find that they’re engaging in high-risk sexual behavior, we have a conversation with them about how to lower that risk,” Correa-Encarnacion said. The entire session lasts about 20 minutes, and subjects receive their results during the session. Correa-Encarnacion has never herself handed out a positive result, but all Positive Link staff members go
through training on how to handle that situation. “Most of it is letting the individual kind of have their moment,” she said. She added that they are also legally required to obtain the individual’s information and get them into treatment. “We’re not just gonna leave you alone and say ‘you do this by yourself,’” she said. Correa-Encarnacion hopes to help people understand HIV and feel more comfortable talking about it. She said she feels there’s very limited
understanding in most communities of how the disease manifests itself. “It’s no longer a death sentence,” she said. “It’s no longer something that’s gonna kill you right away.” In the future, Correa-Encarnacion hopes to implement, create and oversee programs with a national Latino health organization She said this isn’t far away from what she’s doing now, which includes community education. “Anybody could become HIV positive if they’re not careful,” she said. She is responsible for
the partnership that La Casa and Postive Link have developed. Aside from her interest in helping the Latino community, Correa-Encarnacion said she thought that bringing programs such as this one to IU’s campus was necessary. “It’s been growing, slowly but surely,” she said. “But I think we’re making pretty good strides, and I’m pretty proud of the work that’s been done.” Follow reporter Anna Hyzy on Twitter @annakhyzy.

Battleship tournament concludes BY JILL RANEGAR jranegar@indiana.edu
Strategy, strength and Super Soakers came into play as IU Recreational Sports’ second-annual intramural Battleship tournament came to an end this weekend. The four-day event spanned two weekends, beginning Feb. 8 and ending Sunday. The competition consisted of teams of four getting in canoes and battling to survive, outlast and attack opponents by splashing water into the opponents’ boats. Teams were equipped with a set of paddles, two buckets and a mat shield. Super Soakers were permitted, but not provided. At the sound of the whistle, the teams took on a freefor-all approach, with the objective to sink the competition. The winning team from each round was awarded
T-shirts. “This is different from last year,” said Chris Carr, graduate assistant for intramural sports. “We no longer have playoffs because we found teams were too tired to come back for a championship round.” Collegiate intramural battleship has been up-andcoming, gaining popularity around the country, Carr said. “A lot of intramural sports are naturally competitive, like basketball, for instance,” Carr said. “With Battleship, there’s still a winner, but it’s more about having fun.” Some teams had coordinating T-shirts, matching bandanas and sailor or pirate wear. Up to nine teams were allowed in the pool per round. The day was broken into four competitions, beginning consecutively at 11:30 a.m., 1:00 p.m., 2:30 p.m. and 4:00 p.m.
During each hour-and-ahalf segment, teams battled to be the last floating boat, thereby accumulating the lowest number of points. Teams were given a number corresponding to the order they were sunk in each match. In a full round, the first sunken canoe is given nine points, while the last team in the pool receives one point, Carr said. SRSC sport supervisors used discretion in reducing the “battle zone” once teams were eliminated. “We want there to be as much action as possible,” intramural supervisor Meaghan O’Connor said. “If not a lot is happening, we reduce the playing space to make sure there is constant craziness.” Penalties included ramming into or grabbing onto other boats, using opponents’ equipment and removing water from within the team’s boat.
Punishment included added water to the offending teams’ canoes. This year’s competition involved more boats in the pool at the same time to add more splashing and more chaos, Carr said. Seniors Amy Longfellow and Kate Miller, part of team “Burros Love Churros,” were back for their second try at the competition. “We did it last year because it just sounded weird and fun,” Longfellow said. “We do a lot of intramural sports with the same team.” As for battleship, Longfellow and Miller said they find division of labor to be the most effective strategy. Carr said the live-action Battleship is quite different from the board game, and the most important strategy is to not sink. Follow reporter Jill Ranegar on Twitter @JillRanegar.
Ten minority students gathered for a Diversity Roundtable with the IU Student Association last week to talk about problems and isolation they had faced on campus. Leighton Johnson, chief of diversity inclusion and advocacy of IUSA, organized the event to discuss mutual diversity issues and solutions at IU and has been a vocal student advocate of diversity at IU in his four years here. “Is there a diversity problem at IU?” Johnson asked. All of the students, in some form, said yes. “A lot of students don’t wanna come to IU because they don’t think anyone like them attends IU,” said Noelle Gipson, education policy recruiter and member of Alpha Kappa Alpha, a primarily black sorority. Although students were shy at first, as the event continued, they began to open up. “It’s almost a heritage thing,” Victoria Hicks said. “For most of its history, it’s been a very white university. People who are looking for diversity are probably going to head to a school that’s more diverse.” Victoria Hicks attended as a representative of student group DREAM IU, which advocates for the DREAM Act. The DREAM Act would give undocumented students an opportunity to become American citizens. Ali Haynes, a Filipino transfer student from University of Southern Indiana, said she felt isolated as a minority transfer student and had considered leaving IU. “I was expecting more strength and unity amongst the international community, because that’s what I was used to down there,” Haynes said. “Everyone supported each organization and supported each other, so it was just very different when I came here and I felt like I didn’t have anyone to connect to. I felt like I still didn’t fit in.”

One problem many students mentioned was the divide between international students and domestic students on campus. They said both communities were underserved by a lack of collaboration between international students and domestic students. “You’re not getting an American education, you’re getting an education in America,” said Fred Diego, senior and president of the Society for Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science. The group suggested merging international and domestic orientations and including some Welcome Week events to fix this divide. Another problem, the students said, was the struggle undocumented students faced in applying to IU. The undocumented students in the room agreed that the process to apply was unnecessarily complicated, and it was unclear if they could even be accepted at the school. “There are not a lot of us, and the process to apply is difficult and biased,” Hicks said. The solution, members of the round table agreed, would be to form an IU Diversity Coalition Alliance that would bring together the different ethnic, religious and academic groups on campus to foster a culture of diversity. Johnson said IUSA organized an event April 8 to bring together the different cultural centers on campus. “I challenge you all to speak to someone new, discuss the issues we talked about tonight,” Gipson said. “Bring a friend, see if we can get the conversation larger ... I think its 100 percent feasible to do.” Although the meeting focused on diversity problems, students also noted some strengths. “We have wonderful diversity in our staff and faculty,” Hicks said. “Instead of advertising that we want diversity, we have diversity and we want to encourage it.”

UITS app finalist in competition BY KATHRINE SCHULZE schulzek@indiana.edu
One.IU, the new app store for IU’s online services, is a finalist in the Best Internal App category in IDG’s Consumerization of IT in the Enterprise. “It’s a nice recognition of the fact that IU is on the cutting edge of IT,” said Alan Walsh, lifetime engagement functional chief of University Information Technology Services. Other finalists in the Best Internal App category include Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, Equinix, GlobalTranz and True Value Company. IU was the only university whose app was named a finalist in CITE awards program. “Indiana University is honored to be the only university named a CITE finalist, and this affirms the inspiring innovation of IU’s many IT professionals who can be creative in the culture of a great university,” said Brad Wheeler, IU chief information officer and vice president for information
technology. One.IU is planned to replace OneStart by summer 2015. It has a core search function much like Google and a site that works as well on a cell phone as on a desktop, said Brian McGough, IU director of enterprise integration for UITS. “User feedback has overwhelmingly told us that OneStart is just too cluttered,” Walsh said. “It’s hard to find things and difficult to navigate. We wanted a way to make it fast and easy to complete everyday tasks.” One.IU is currently running as a beta website, and Walsh said feedback from students, faculty and staff is encouraged. “By keeping the One.IU interface simple and intuitive, people are able to find what they need quickly, get their business done, and go on with their lives,” McGough said. “It’s search, click, done. That’s what we’re trying to accomplish with One.IU.”

A statue will be built in Ernie Pyle’s honor, Provost Lauren Robel announced Thursday at the Board of Trustees meeting. Ernie Pyle’s statue will be the third “iconic statue” on campus, Robel said. It will join former IU president Herman B Wells and jazz composer and songwriter Hoagy Carmichael. Wells’ statue was dedicated in 2000, months after he passed away. Likewise, the statue of Carmichael found its home on IU’s campus in 2008. The statue of Ernie Pyle will be built in bronze and will be modeled after a photo of Pyle taken during World War II,
Robel said. The photo shows Pyle sitting on a crate, working with his typewriter. Robel said the crate may be expanded to include room for students to sit next to Pyle. Harold “Tuck” Langland will sculpt the statue, the same artist who was commissioned to make the Wells statue, the Herald-Times reported. The statue will be placed outside Franklin Hall, the location of the new Media School. Pyle’s statue is part of an effort on behalf of a legacy committee to preserve the School of Journalism’s history heading into the merger, the Herald-Times reported. — Kathrine Schulze

John D. Graham, dean of the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, will testify Tuesday in support of the Secret Science Reform Act bill, introduced by Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives. The bill, sponsored by subcommittee chairman David Schweikert, R-Ariz., would prohibit the Environmental Protection Agency from proposing regulations based on “secret science.” Secret science is science that is not transparent or reproducible, according to a press release. Graham outlined the bill in testimony prepared for the hearing. The EPA is not permitted
to issue regulations unless all scientific and technical information relied upon is specifically identified, the information is publicly available and research results could be replicated, Graham said. Graham was asked to testify by the Environment Subcommittee of the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology because of the experience he has both inside and outside government. He was the former senior official in President George W. Bush’s Office of Management and Budget. Graham said he supports the first point because it encourages transparency. “A third party — or even another federal agency or
OMB — cannot possibly evaluate the merits of a covered action if they do not know what specific scientific and technical information was relied upon by EPA,” Graham said in his prepared testimony. He said he supports the second point because it allows public access to information, therefore making independent experiments to reproduce results possible. Graham will testify that the legislation wouldn’t be an undue burden on government agencies, according to a press release. The hearing is set for 10 a.m. Tuesday. What I envision is simply a link on EPA’s website — one for each covered action — that contains one or more
files of original scientific and technical information ... a third party could process the information and thereby substantially reproduce the results that the agency is relying upon, Graham said in a press release. Schweikert said in a statement released by the subcommittee they want to put a stop to from EPA rulemaking out of the public eye. “The Secret Science Reform Act ends costly EPA rulemaking from happening behind closed doors and out of public view,” Schweikert said. “Public policy should come from public data, not based on the whims of farleft environmental groups.” — Kathrine Schulze

Deriding gender at Goldman
A fumbled attempt at NSA reform
CAROLINE ELLERT is a sophomore majoring in English.
Goldman Sachs is surprisingly not leading the fight against gender stereotypes in the workplace. The bank promoted itself to Harvard’s Women of Computer Science club with swag items chosen to appeal to women — nail files and makeup mirrors. Because, you know, chicks dig that stuff. Not surprisingly, this company has a whopping two women on its 12 person board and three female executives out of 30 on its management committee. So while handing girly favors — or gender stereotypes — is clearly a commendable attempt to recruit more women, Goldman missed the mark. The fact that there are no “Men in Computer Science” clubs is not reversesexism. The reason such a club cannot exist is because men have never been thought less capable because of their gender. There has never been a reason to create an exclusive club for a group who are traditionally the excluders. The boys club of Goldman Sachs, which has been called “a frat on steroids,” is no different. One of the reasons women are excluded is precisely because the gender stereotypes a nail file and makeup mirror represent are both impossible to live up to and distracting from what women can really achieve. A former female Goldman employee claimed that a memo once replaced corporate headshots of women with pictures of half-naked Playboy playmates. Amusing. The problem with handing out nail files and mirrors as a way to promote your company to women is it’s a reminder of the way many men view their female coworkers. It’s not quite as bad today as the Playboy incident, which happened in the ‘90s. Now things are slightly different, but sexual objectification of women still has its grip on society. Women obviously face much more physical scrutiny than men. The problem here, though, is not necessarily the crushing standards of beauty for women, but how degrading it is to have your appearance constantly referenced over your abilities. It’s an insult to the effect women actually have on the world — an effect that is not just aesthetic. Goldman has surely done worse things to discriminate against women, and their attempt to appeal to women is commendable, even if the execution was poor. Kudos to Goldman for trying to improve their male to female ratio, but they would have sent a better message with a more gender-neutral item for these smart, high-achieving women. A pen, for example, which is just as functional for a woman as it is for a man. Harvard’s Women of Computer Science can achieve much more than looking pretty, a fairly useless talent. It was a nice attempt, Goldman Sachs. Just remember there’s more to being a woman than filing our nails and wearing mascara. — cjellert@indiana.edu

ILLUSTRATION BY ALDEA SULLIVAN | IDS
WE SAY: Equality makes moves in ‘14 There has been a perceived turn in the gay rights tide lately, and the editorial board couldn’t be more for it. Several legal occurrences in the past few weeks reflect growing acceptance and equality. Kentucky, a southern conservative state that is usually about 10 years behind anything trendy — especially legislation — has begun to chip away at its marriage law. A federal judge declared Kentucky must recognize gay marriages that were legally performed in other states. This is not exactly legalization of gay marriage, but it is closer than Kentucky has ever been, and honestly, it’s surprising for the red state. A pleasant surprise. Overturning anti-gay legislation in conservative states has been a trend for the judicial branch lately. A federal judge in Virginia ruled the state’s same-sex marriage ban was unconstitutional, and relevant rulings have been made in Oklahoma and Utah recently as well.
Another big step for equality was made with California’s Republican congressman Carl DeMaio releasing a campaign ad featuring his partner. This is a big step not only for Republicans, who need to once and for all abandon their losing anti-gay tirade, but also for equality in politics in general. Campaigns often feature a politician’s home life as a sign of family values and stability. Through their marriages and families, politicians try to show the voters they have the same morals and social values as them. This ad shows the public that having a gay partner is just as stable as having a straight one. A core family and morals aren’t at risk in a gay family. Though sexuality and home life probably should not be the reason someone gets elected, the truth about politics is that personal lives become public. This campaign opens the way for a party to begin seeing gay Americans as equal.
The sports and entertainment industries have also made leaps for gay equality with NFL Player Michael Sam’s announcement that he is gay. While some sportscasters claimed this would severely affect his draft chances, the response from his fellow NFL players was pretty widely supportive. Most tweets from fellow players contained messages of pride and respect, with declarations of nonchalance about any players’ sexuality — all that matters is how you play. This is a leap forward in the same vein as DeMaio’s campaign commercial. It’s past time for America to stop treating same-sex couples like abnormalities. Sexuality does not affect a person’s ability to succeed in their chosen profession, and both of these examples show this to the public. Even the forces of intolerance are on the retreat. A proposed and thinly-veiled Jim Crow-esque bill that would have allowed Kansas businesses and government
employees to refuse services to gay couples on the basis of religious freedom looks bound to fail in the Kansas senate. Kansas Senate President Susan Wagle stated, “A strong majority of my members support laws that define traditional marriage ... However my members also don’t condone discrimination.” Time and time again, equality for same-sex couples gets closer and closer, and though we still have a long way to go, it’s pretty obvious by now the American public is tired of moving backwards. Marriage equality is gaining speed all over the country, and more and more public figures are coming out and making stands for equality. Someday, the discrimination against gay people will be an embarrassing phase of our past, and those who continue siding with it today will prove to be on the wrong side of history tomorrow. — opinion@idsnews.com Follow the Editorial Board on Twitter @ids_opinion.

Democrats need to play dirtier In November 2012, the citizens of the United States elected 234 Republicans to the United States House of Representatives. What many people forget is that they also elected 201 Democrats to the same chamber. Speaker of the House John Boehner, the conservative presiding officer and leader the lower chamber of Congress, is charged with a variety of powers, from having control over committees to deciding what legislation comes to the floor of the House. Unfortunately, Speaker Boehner has been using his power to harm the American people, rather than help them as his job entails. The 113th Congress has been widely criticized to be one of, if not the single, most dysfunctional and inflammatory Congress in U.S. history. To have a piece of legislation pass through both the House and the Senate
is a miraculous feat for this Congress. Bipartisanship and civility have been thrown out the window in exchange for a hopeful reelection and to appease Tea Party fundraisers and super political action committees. Comprehensive immigration reform, for example, has long been a controversial topic for the U.S. That’s why, when the Senate passed a sweeping immigration reform bill in 2013, it was historic. The bill passed 68-32, with all Democrats and 14 Republicans voting in favor , including big names such as John McCain, R-Ariz., and Marco Rubio, R-Fla. I’m not saying immigration reform would or would not pass through the House of Representatives in its current form. What I am saying, however, is that the people of the U.S. deserve a vote — just a simple up-or-down, yes or no vote. Not every Congressional district elected Speaker
Boehner. Two hundred and one districts elected Democrats and 233 elected Republicans who aren’t Boehner. Boehner is one out of 435 members of the House of Representatives, but he’s put his own political agenda ahead of the political progress of the country. You can argue the immigration bill won’t pass the House regardless and that’s a possibility. It’s also possible, however, that it could pass. And it isn’t like the House is busy passing important legislation every day. With the exception of the odd law here and there, the House is more inactive than my love life this past Friday. It’s time the Democrats demand votes be brought to the floor of the House. Again and again, bills from the Senate have died upon arrival, with the speaker refusing to allow them to pass into Committee. Democrats have an opportunity to use a parliamen-

tary procedure — a discharge petition — that, with the signatures of 218 Representatives, would force the bill to go directly to the floor of the House. Members of the House, such as House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (DMary.) have suggested this tactic already. And if the Democrats and the Republicans really care about the American people, they will sign that petition. This country was founded on the principles of deliberation and compromise. Speaker Boehner is promoting the opposite. — ajguenth@indiana.edu Follow columnist Andrew Guenther on Twitter @GuentherAndrew.

For the sake of transparency, I’ll admit I’m not a huge fan of Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ken. I disagree with his policies, ranging from health care to gun control to women’s health issues. However, I admire his recently-filed lawsuit against the Obama administration regarding the Naional Security Agency surveillance program, with one large exception: he should have made it a bipartisan affair. Paul filed the suit with Ken Cuccinelli, the former Republican attorney general of Virginia who came under fire after receiving thousands of dollars worth of improper gifts while in office, and Matt Kibbe, president of the conservative group FreedomWorks. Originally, earlier drafts of the suit included Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., as a plaintiff with Paul. However, the final draft of the suit removed Sen. Udall and replaced him with the president of FreedomWorks. The motives behind that move were undoubtedly political. In fact, the politics behind the filing of this lawsuit don’t stop there. Well-known constitutional lawyer Bruce Fein accused Paul of plagiarizing the lawsuit. Paul had hired Fein, at a discounted rate, to write the suit. However, in the final draft of the lawsuit, Fein’s name was removed completely and replaced with Cuccinelli’s. Of course, the plagiarism accusation would be less serious if the final “Cuccinelli” draft of the suit wasn’t virtually identical to Fein’s original work. With little contrast, Cuccinelli’s version says, “Since the MATP was publicly disclosed, public opinion polls showed widespread opposition to the dragnet collection, storage, retention and search of telephone metadata collected on every domestic or international phone call made or received by citizens or permanent resident aliens in the United States.” while Fein’s is identical with the exception of the word “when,” while Fein’s version has “since” instead. In order to make a more powerful, lasting and meaningful statement with this lawsuit, Paul should have refrained from playing politics. He should have worked with Democrats as well as Republicans to make this lawsuit happen. There is opposition to the NSA surveillance program on both sides of the aisle, and the lawsuit calls for a simple and logical reform of the program. It seeks to require warrants to obtain peoples’ metadata, thereby falling within the Fourth Amendment’s scope. The convincing plagiarism accusation does not help Paul’s case here, and it thoroughly cripples a seemingly valiant attempt to fix a serious problem in our nation’s approach to national security. If Rand Paul were truly the libertarian champion of freedom he claims to be, he would not have played politics with this opportunity to reform the NSA’s surveillance program. Then again, maybe Paul isn’t as interested in reform as he his in politics — he is a politician himself, after all. — sydhoffe@indiana.edu

Last week, the Senate removed the second sentence of the amendment, which also
banned legal statuses similar to marriage for same-sex couples, such as civil unions. Because the amendment was altered, it will not appear on the ballot for the general election in November. Voters will have their say in November 2016 at the earliest.

Event benefits crisis center BY EMILY ERNSBERGER emelerns@indiana.edu
The St. Charles Catholic Church organized its second-annual fundraiser event Sunday for the Crisis Pregnancy Center of Bloomington and Hannah House Maternity Home. Money raised will pay for supplies given to mothers and families by the center, child birth educator Brandy Krebbs said. The center provides various types of parenting classes, counseling and tests for mothers and fathers, as well as services for children while parents receive assistance. St. Charles member Rose Thomas came up with the idea for last year’s fundraiser, which raised approximately $1,300, said Ann
Collins, director of development of the Crisis Pregnancy Center and Hannah House. “St. Charles is one of our biggest contributors,” Collins said. At the fundraiser, attendees donated money and gifts for children and parents assisted by the pregnancy center. Students of St. Charles school and accordion-piano duo Lou and Lenny Newman performed musical pieces for guests. Food and flowers for the event were donated by Kroger, and church members made desserts. Krebbs said some supplies are free to parents, but others must be purchased or earned by attending classes. For example, parents who attend the center’s
class on safe sleeping, which teaches parents how to have their child rest to avoid sudden infant death syndrome, earn a free pack-and-play pin and bassinet. After taking other classes, parents can earn baby bucks to purchase other supplies from the center, Krebbs said. “It means more to people when they work for it,” Krebbs said. The Crisis Pregnancy Center and the Hannah House plan fundraisers throughout the year, Collins said. These include a radio telethon in April, walks, runs and a gala. Some of the supplies the center gives out include bottles, high chairs, formula and diapers. Thomas, a member of St. Charles Catholic Church for
15 years, said she came up with the idea after she visited the church her daughter attends in Maryland, which had a similar event. She said she expected about 50 people to attend last year. Instead, about 100 people turned out. “It’s a terrific thing,” Thomas said. “We have the best location in town.” Thomas said she was glad to help save lives by helping the organization. Collins expressed her thanks during an address to attendees. “We appreciate you coming out and celebrating life with you today,” Collins said.

Indianapolis breaks snow records Record-breaking snowfall
FROM IDS REPORTS
This year’s snowfall in Indianapolis has broken National Weather Services’ records. The previous record of 51 inches, recorded during the 1981-1982 season, was broken after snowfall Friday and Saturday. Snowfall Friday accumulated to 5.5 inches. The 0.8 inches of accumulation Saturday made this year’s winter the record holder for snowfall at 51.3 inches. NWS accumulation records are collected at the Indianapolis International Airport. Season records are determined by the amount of snowfall documented between the months of December and February. Data on snow accumulation has been collected in Indianapolis since 1871. A separate report from the NWS said the average annual snowfall for the Indianapolis area is 25.9 inches total.

Proponents of Seven Oaks Classical School spoke to members of the Bloomington community Saturday at the Monroe County Public Library about the charter school they hope to open in fall 2015. Seven Oaks would teach their students using a classical education curriculum, which emphasizes things like cultural literacy, Socratic discussion, character education and music and the arts. The school will be overseen by the Hillsdale College Barney Charter School Initiative. Lindsey Weaver, a parent who hopes to send her children to Seven Oaks, said an understanding of music, history, literature and philosophy are intrinsic parts of a classical education. Phil Kilgore, director of the Barney Initiative, said he supports classical education in the classroom. “We have deep convictions about the need for restoration of classical education,” Kilgore said. Kilgore said four charter schools are now open in the United States under the leadership of the Barney Initiative in Texas, New Mexico, Georgia and Arkansas. The Barney Initiative is currently helping the founding board of Seven Oaks get the school up and running and will help the school find a leader once the school is implemented. Kilgore said once the school is in operation, they will visit again and spend time in the classrooms. Terrence Moore, a history professor at Hillsdale, outlined the curriculum that Seven Oaks would implement. “Indiana needs a classical charter school like this one,” he said. Moore said Seven Oaks would help put more beauty in students’ lives through the instruction of art and music. Students would also be required to read and write poetry. Students would study Latin as well as French or Spanish and learn history, social studies and about

Bills to watch: Education standards and firearms FROM IDS REPORTS
SB 91: Education standards This bill would add a definition of “college and career readiness” to the state’s education standards. It requires that the educational standards adopted before July 1, 2014, will “prepare Indiana students for college and career success, including the proper preparation for nationally recognized college entrance exams such as the ACT and SAT.” The definition of college and career readiness is
the Renaissance in middle school. “These are going to be the things that feed their minds and souls,” Moore said. Moore said teachers at Seven Oaks will be ones who put learning first. He said he believes in charter schools because they give families choices. “Not to have that choice in a town like Bloomington is odd,” he said. He compared the classical education to the education his grandparents had, when he said students knew how to do math without a calculator. Moore spoke about an experience he had when a cashier was not able to give him proper change because the cashier could not do the math without a calculator. For the initial enrollment at the school, every student who wants to be enrolled would get in until all spots were filled. When a child leaves the school, new families could get their child enrolled through a lottery system. “A lot of parents are looking for this kind of choice,” Moore said. The Green School is a second charter school hoping to serve Monroe and surrounding counties. The Green School’s curriculum would be focused on environmental sustainability and social justice. As of Jan. 27, the Green School founders are still working on the charter application. The Indiana Charter School Board oversees Indiana’s charter schools and reviews applications for new charter schools. The application process for a charter school to be opened consists of six steps — a letter of intent, full application, application evaluation, interview, a public hearing and an ICSB board meeting. “The ICSB’s mission is to authorize and hold accountable a portfolio of high-performing charter schools in which students achieve high levels of growth and graduate prepared for college and careers,” according to the ICSB mission statement.

town where she grew up. “I thought that since she lived all her life in Bloomington, she should go and get a new viewpoint,” Effron said. “She already had an IU and Bloomington experience.” After graduation, she moved to New York and was accepted to Juilliard to participate in the school’s conducting program. “She made a big splash at Juilliard,” Effron said. “They really believed in her.” At Juilliard, Effron said Kidd met many contacts in the conducting programs, which helped her make a name for herself. Kidd received a Master of Music in 2011 from Juilliard and went on to become the first woman accepted into the conducting program at the New England Conservatory in 2012. Of about 50 people who applied for the program, she was the only one admitted. The application process is a difficult one, said Hugh Wolff, the head of the conducting program at NEC.

Sarah Kidd’s memorial was held in the MAC on Sunday. Kidd was a 2009 Jacobs School of Music graduate.
Loebel said she had a talent for conducting. “I remember her audition very well, and you get this gut feeling within 30 seconds that she had what it takes,” Loebel said. “You can’t learn to have that. You are born with it.” Kidd received her graduate diploma from NEC after one semester and went on to look for the next step in her career. She married Richard Berg in May 2013 in San Antonio, where she saw many of her oldest friends for the last time. “My last memory of her is perfect,” Kidd’s high school friend Caitlin White said. “Her and Richard floated away on the San Antonio canal. It was so beautiful then
that I almost cried. I know that this is what I will be thinking about throughout the next few months.” Six months after her wedding, everything stopped when she was diagnosed with stage four “cancer of unknown causes” last November, Wolff said. Because the cancer was so far along, doctors could not tell where it had started. Two and a half months later, Kidd died. “The nature of her illness was so sudden and so drastic that people weren’t really able to comprehend it,” Wolff said. “It’s a huge loss to imagine that all of this potential is gone.” Loebel said he believed
Kidd was going to have a very bright future and that it was sad she would never receive the chance. Despite her loss, friends and family celebrated her many accomplishments. “What she did in her 27 years shows that if you want something badly enough, and you’re willing to put everything into it, you have a chance,” Effron said. “She was making a name for herself.” Wolff said she was a wonderful example of talent, character, poise and someone who really went for it. “If you have a dream or an ambition, really test yourself to see how far you can take it,” he said. “That’s what Sarah did.”

Hoosier baseball opens season 1-3 against Texas Tech BY EVAN HOOPFER ehoopfer@indiana.edu
On the first pitch of the season, leadoff hitter Will Nolden hit a double that took one hop before hitting the right field wall. Kyle Schwarber then grounded out to the shortstop but advanced Nolden to third. The next batter, Sam Travis, hit a high fly ball to center field. It allowed Nolden to tag up and when he crossed home on the sac fly to give IU the 1-0 lead in the first inning. It was the only scoring that took place. IU won the season opener 1-0 against Texas Tech. The next 27 innings were very different. IU was outscored 23-7 in the
final three games. The Red Raiders took three of four from the Hoosiers to open up the year. “I kind of thought this team needed a little bit of a reality check,” IU Coach Tracy Smith said. “We’ve had a long offseason of everybody telling us of how good we are.” Last year IU never dipped below .500. This year the Hoosiers will have to dig themselves out of an early hole as they start the year 1-3. “There’s no excuses,” Smith said. “We got beat. We got beat in every facet of the game ... I hope this serves as a wakeup call for all of us that it’s not going to be easy.” Both the offense and the pitching struggled in Lubbock, Texas. Senior ace Joey DeNato was the
lone Hoosier starting pitcher to slow down the Red Raider attack. DeNato went six innings Friday, giving up three hits and no runs. The rest of the starting pitchers struggled. Junior Kyle Hart, along with sophomores Christian Morris and Will Coursen-Carr, recorded the three losses. They combined to give up 16 hits, 12 earned runs and nine walks in 12 innings pitched. Hart, who went 8-2 last year with a 3.01 ERA, gave up a grand slam in game two of the series. Because of his poor first start, Hart’s ERA stands at 15.0 on the year. “That was an unusual outing for him,” Smith said. Because it’s still early in the season, Smith said the starting rotation will be revisited and evaluated often.
The Hoosier offense wasn’t much better. The much-ballyhooed unit scored just eight runs in 36 innings, averaging only two a game. Smith said since it was one of the first times playing outside, players tend to get out in front of the ball and never make adjustments. “Guys are a little jumpy,” he added. Next weekend IU will participate in the PAC-12 challenge, which includes playing No. 2 Oregon State. The Beavers ended the Hoosiers season last year in the College World Series. “Next week it’s not going to get any easier,” Smith said. Follow reporter Evan Hoopfer on Twitter @EvanHoopfer.

Hoosier losing streak extended by Purdue BY JOHN BAUERNFEIND jogbauer@indiana.edu
WEST LAFAYETTE — One of the most tumultuous weeks in recent IU men’s basketball memory was put to rest Saturday, as the Purdue Boilermakers (15-10, 5-7) pummeled the Hoosiers (14-11, 4-8) 82-64 in front of an impassioned Mackey Arena crowd. The disastrous week began Wednesday, when the Hoosiers saw a 13-point second half lead squandered in the final moments against Penn State. Then, on Friday morning, sophomore forward Hanner Mosquera-Perea was arrested for drunken driving. Friday night, less than 24 hours until IU was to play its biggest rival, IU Coach Tom Crean announced via Twitter that Mosquera-Perea wouldn’t travel with the team and would be suspended indefinitely. This was all a precursor to what was about to play out in West Lafayette. Purdue, which had lost four straight games to IU, went on a 22-4 run that spanned the final minutes of the first half and continued into the second. After the game, sophomore forward Austin Etherington said he felt his team didn’t return Purdue’s punch coming out of halftime. “The first half we fought pretty hard and we thought we were right there,” Etherington said. “Then they went on the run to start the second half and we didn’t take the hit, we didn’t fight back like we should have and it got to where it was.” The Hoosiers were careless with the ball early on, committing seven turnovers in the game’s first seven minutes. For the game, Purdue
committed more turnovers (15) than IU (14), yet the Hoosiers made only 19 field goals. And, to pile on to its stack of self-inflicted miscues, IU Coach Tom Crean said he and his staff counted Hoosier players missed 12 layups. Sophomore guard Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell said afterwards his team’s missed layups were maddening. “It was very frustrating,” Ferrell said. “We just weren’t focusing on those layups, layups that we would normally make. At the end of the day we should have made those easy layups at the rim.” Purdue shot well above its season averages, going 25-of52 from the field and 10-of-18 from beyond the arc. In the second half, which saw the Boilermakers score 44 points, Purdue shot 57.1 percent from the floor. Crean acknowledged Purdue’s hot shooting in his press conference, but time and time again the Boilermakers found one another for open shots. Senior guard Sterling Carter scored a team-high 19 points, going 5-of-6 from 3-point range. Freshman forward Noah Vonleh scored the game’s first points, a 3-pointer in the face of Purdue’s A.J. Hammons. Vonleh outscored Hammons 14 points to five, yet both big men were forced to sit out periods of time due to foul trouble. On IU’s next possession, senior wing Will Sheehey connected on a corner 3-pointer, which vaulted him into IU’s 1,000 point club. Sheehey finished with 10 points on 3-of-8 shooting, and now has 1,009 career points. Besides Sheehey’s accomplishment of beating former IU player Jared Jeffries record, who had 1,008 points
to his name, not much else went right for the Hoosiers. From the 2:33 mark in the first half until the 13:04 mark in the second half, IU was held without a field goal. When IU finally scored a basket, the team found itself down by 15 points. In Mosquera-Perea’s absence, freshman forward Devin Davis played 12 minutes, scoring two points and pulling in four rebounds. Ferrell, who had a gamehigh 27 points on 6-of-17 shooting, said after the game he felt most of IU’s problems were mental mistakes. “I feel like it’s mostly mental,” he said. “Especially when teams make that run, guys kinda get quiet on the court. “You know those are times when you’ve got to come together at our greatest moment ... when team’s make runs like that, we’ve just got to have that more of an edge to come back.” While Purdue coasted to an easy victory — it led by double-digits the game’s final 17 minutes and 10 seconds — its fans continued on with their vitriol towards IU. The crowd stayed for the game’s entirety, soaking in Purdue’s first win against the Hoosiers since the 2010-11 season. In his postgame press conference, Crean said his team needs to gain confidence from one another in the midst of its three-game conference losing streak, its longest since 2011-12. “The bottom line is, you get your strength from your teammates,” Crean said. “You gotta shut out the negativities and the doubts as much as you can, and then you can’t let them creep in when the game’s going on. “We’ve gotta get more strength and confidence from our teammates on the floor.”

Women’s basketball drops second consecutive game BY STUART JACKSON stuajack@indiana.edu
Much like last Thursday’s game against Penn State, the IU women’s basketball team kept pace with Nebraska. And, much like last Thursday’s game, it only took a lead to let it slip away. The Hoosiers led by as many as eight during the first half, but could not hold on as No. 21 Nebraska overcame an early deficit to defeat IU 76-61 at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Neb. IU Coach Curt Miller said Nebraska exploited every mistake. “They took advantage of a lot more of our mistakes than we could take advantage of their mistakes,” Miller said. Two major contributors to the Huskers’ victory were senior forward Jordan Hooper and sophomore guard Rachel Theriot. The duo combined for 54 of the team’s 76 points. Hooper had 31 points on 55 percent shooting from the field, while Theriot finished with 23 points on 52.6 percent shooting from the field. “When you make a defensive assignment mistakes they have great players like Hooper and Theriot to step up and hurt you,” Miller said. After Hooper muscled in a shot from the right block in the post and drew a foul, Nebraska Coach Connie Yori briefly collapsed on the sideline after experiencing dizziness and did not return. Omaha, Neb., ABC News affiliate KETV confirmed Yori went to a local hospital to be examined. Associate Head Coach Sunny Smallwood took

over, and the Huskers never looked back, going on a 17-6 run during the following six minutes. Nebraska outscored IU 30-11 during the final 12 minutes and 47 seconds. Initially, the Hoosiers struggled from the field and especially the 3-point line, missing their first six attempts from beyond the arc. This drought did not last very long, though. IU cut an early eightpoint deficit to two with 13 minutes 17 seconds remaining in the first half on backto-back 3-pointers from freshmen guards Larryn Brooks and Karlee McBride. A 3-pointer by freshman guard Taylor Agler extended the Hoosiers’ run to 11-0 to give them a 17-14 lead, its first of the half. Agler’s 3-pointer was part of a three minute and 10 second stretch in which IU shot 4-of-4 from 3-point range. The run eventually grew to 16-2, which gave the Hoosiers its largest lead of the game at 22-16 at the nine minutes 39 second mark. The Hoosiers did not relinquish their lead until Hooper made a pair of free throws with 16 minutes and
three seconds remaining in the second half. Emily Cady’s layup accounted for two of Nebraska’s 15 second-chance points. “I thought the big difference in the second half was their effort to the glass with second-chance points, second-chance opportunities,” Miller said. “They were inspired.” Miller said he thought his team played a great first half. “We came in and really executed with a very young team,” he said. “Not only mentally with the game plan but physically and did a lot of really good things.” Sunday was the secondconsecutive game the Hoosiers played against an opponent ranked in the Top 25. Miller said these were back-to-back games during which he thought his team competed well. “Overall, with a very young team, with four freshman on the floor most of the night, I’m proud of our growth — and I look forward to continuing to get better,” Miller said.

Freshmen to graduating Seniors — We want all students in the book.
idsnews.com/arbutus
Jordan Hooper etched her name in the Nebraska record books Sunday, leading the No. 21 Cornhuskers to a 76-61 victory against IU. The senior forward shot 56 percent from the field and finished with a gamehigh 31 points — two shy of her season best. She set the Nebraska women’s basketball program record with her 271st career-made 3-pointer and controlled the Cornhuskers’ (19-5, 9-3) offense in the second half. The Hoosier (17-8, 4-8) defense simply had no answer for Hooper. “The thing that’s so tough about Nebraska is they exploit every mistake,” IU Coach Curt Miller said. “And when you make a defensive assignment mistake they have great players like Hooper and (Rachel) Theriot to step up and hurt you.” Whenever IU made a run, Hooper answered. Just before halftime, freshman guard Alexis Gassion got to the lane and converted on a layup to put the Hoosiers up by four points. Hooper responded to Gassion’s layup by stepping
into a 3-pointer on the ensuing Nebraska possession, tying the Nebraska 3-point record and bringing the Cornhuskers back to within one possession. IU started the second half with a four-point lead, but Hooper caught fire and brought the Cornhuskers storming back. Hooper began taking and converting shots from wherever she had the ball. With IU ahead by two during the opening minutes of the second half, Hooper got the ball under the basket and converted on a short jumper while getting fouled to tie the game at 50. Although most of her scoring was done from beyond the arc, Hooper finished an efficient 4-of-6 from within the 3-point line. Two possessions later, Hooper began to catch fire from long-range once again to extend the Nebraska lead. She created space off a dribble step-back combination and nailed a jumper from just within the 3-point line to increase Nebraska’s lead to four. Hooper scored another long jumper two possessions later. Timeout was called with 7:43 remaining and Ne-
braska up by eight points. There was still enough time left for the Hoosiers to climb back into the game, but as IU struggled to make shots, Hooper continued hitting them. Miller said there wasn’t much else he could do to slow down Hooper. “It’s tough to watch as a coach because you can see it happen,” Miller said. Hooper converted on another 3-pointer from three feet beyond the arc with 7:25 remaining in the game, pulling Nebraska to a 65-54 lead. Her 3-pointer put an end to the Hoosiers’ hopes to come back. With IU’s offense sputtering down the stretch, the double-digit lead was too much for IU to overcome during the closing minutes of the game. Nebraska outscored IU 44-25 during the second half. “They took advantage of a lot more of our mistakes than we could take advantage of their mistakes,” Miller said. “They were terrific in that last eight to 10 minutes against us.” Follow reporter Sam Beishuizen on Twitter @ Sam_Beishuizen.

Nicki Minaj uses Malcom X image as cover art
EDITORS: RACHEL OSMAN & SARAH ZINN | ARTS@IDSNEWS.COM
As cover art for her new single, rapper Nicki Minaj used a famous photo of Malcolm X holding a rifle with a racial slur next to it. She was criticized heavily on social media
for using an image of the civil rights leader, and apologized on Instagram, saying the cover art was not meant to undermine Malcolm X’s efforts and legacy.
Q&A: Lady Thi Kinh actress Jensen reflects BY SARAH ZINN sjzinn@indiana.edu
Veronica Jensen was one of two women who played Lady Thi Kinh in the original opera “The Tale of Lady Thi Kihn.” The show made its world premiere February 7. IDS: What was it like to be a part of a world premiere? Veronica Jensen: It was really exciting, because it was very liberating being able to create my own idea of the character. But there was also a lot of pressure about creating a new opera. There was a lot of pressure to create something new as opposed to looking at other masters of the opera and using that as a model. It was really fun to take something I’d never done before and make it my own. IDS: Did you identify with Thi Kinh at all? Jensen: Yeah, I did. At first it was hard because she was supposed to be a very ethereal character — very intellectual, very pious. And over time I realized from talking with the director, the composer and the conductor that she was also a very emotional and
compassionate person, and I think that the combination of herself, the passionate side and the intellectual side, that helped her get through her hardship, and I connected to both sides of her. IDS: Was it difficult to say goodbye to your character? Jensen: I don’t think it is for me. I really gave the character and the music everything I had, and I really feel that by the end, by the performances, I really had something special to give to the audience, and I feel like I did that. I feel that it is a really wonderful opera and that it will have a really good chance of succeeding in the professional world. So yeah, I feel very good about where I left it. It will be with me always, but I can say goodbye for now. IDS: How did you prepare to portray Thi Kinh? Jensen: It was really hard developing her character because the director, and also the composer, wanted this to have a little bit of a western concept to it. I had to appeal to a western audience, and what that meant for me was allowing her emotions and her passions to come out more than, per se, her character
in Vietnamese theater. She had an incredible amount of strength, and it’s kind of a different strength than American women would have in this day and age. It had to come from a place of compassion and love — being very forgiving but never weak. I would think that some American women could see her story and think that maybe she was weak, but she was incredibly strong. IDS: What was your favorite part about performing the opera itself? Jensen: My favorite part of the actual performances was when I really started to be able to feel her grief and feel what she was going through in a really hard situation, and because of that, being able to feel like I was really rising above some of the hardest things I’m sure a person has ever gone through. In those times, I really started to experience what her emotions really could’ve been. It was very important for me from the very beginning to create a character that people could really relate to through acting and moving on stage — just as important as the music.

The alternative band Potty Mouth performed at Players Pub on Friday. They opened their Valentine’s Day set at Players Pub with the song, “Granny was a Tranny.”
Punk band Potty Mouth plays Valentines day set BY CHRISTIAN KEMP cjkemp@indiana.edu
Alternative band Potty Mouth opened their Valentine’s Day set at Players Pub Friday evening with their song, “Granny Was a Tranny.” Lead guitarist Levi “Salad Fork” Hovis-Tedrow said the first time they were booked at the pub, the woman in charge of booking said they would only be allowed to play if they didn’t play any “potty mouth kind of stuff.” The band responded by telling her their band name. The show began shortly after midnight and went on for about an hour and a half. Between songs, lead vocalist Austin “Butter Knife” Clayton riled up the crowd with lewd jokes and witty humor. The band combines fastpace punk rock songs with a variety of acoustic country songs to form their sound, but they experiment with all genres. Their first song was basically reggae, Clayton said. Audience member Jackie Morris has been a fan of Potty Mouth since they formed more than three years ago. “I have never seen them play a show here before,” Morris said. “But every time they play at a different place they kind
of draw in new people.” Potty Mouth formed when Hovis-Tedrow and Zach “Steak Knife” Frasier — also members of the band Fire Engine Red — teamed up with Clayton Tyler “Tablespoon” Reeves. Hovis-Tedrow said Potty Mouth came together after Clayton played with them in Fire Engine Red for the first time. “Then afterward we were hanging out and Austin said, ‘We should start a punk band,’” Hovis-Tedrow said. “I was kind of on the edge, but Zach said, ‘Yeah, we have to.’” The band soon decided the name for their band. “Shit Lips was one of the ideas, and then we decided that Shit Lips may be a good album idea for a band named Potty Mouth,” HovisTedrow said. “I remember Sister Hazel Anus really stuck out, but then we finally decided on Potty Mouth.” He said he thinks they live up to the name Potty Mouth. Many of the lyrics written by Clayton have crude connotations. Nathan Little, a fan, described the band’s music as being a forthright expression. “If you can listen to it and have a good laugh about it,
and also at the same time recognize the musicianship behind it, more power to you,” Little said. “But I think in a sense it is supposed to be offensive to certain people. Sensitive people.” The vulgarity of some lyrics and stage banter occasionally limits the venues the band can play. “We got banned from the Comedy Attic,” Clayton said. “They told us we were too vulgar to play there again.” Potty Mouth has performed at Rhino’s Youth Center, Amused and various house parties. Unlike some punk rock groups, Potty Mouth focuses little on political messages and more upon musicianship, band camaraderie and having a good time, Clayton said. “We are pretty particular about our sound,” HovisTedrow said. “We see things kind of differently.” Clayton said he agreed the band takes an unconventional approach to music. “Punk rockers are very proud people,” Clayton said. “The thing is, anyone can be in a punk rock band and anyone can play she-leftme-on-our-anniversar ytype country music, but we are something different.”
