Tsering Yangkey stands with demonstrators to recognize the 55th anniversary of the Tibetan National Uprising Day, when tens of thousands of Tibetans took to the streets of Lhasa, the capital of Tibet. The protesters rallied against China’s invasion and occupation of their homeland.
Fifty-five years ago Monday, Thupten Anyetsang watched as his country erupted. On March 10, 1959, 9-year-old Anyetsang sat in a monastery high in the Himalaya Mountains and looked down to Lhasa, capital city of Tibet and his hometown, as it began its rapid descent into chaos. “I was a little distance, maybe a couple miles, in a monastery called Sera monastery,” Anyetsang said. “From there, looking down to Lhasa, the capital, you could see it.” On that day, the Chinese government invited the Dalai Lama to a theatrical performance in Lhasa with the request he bring no bodyguards or security. “When the general public heard that, they got suspicious,” Anyetsang said. “They thought he would be kidnapped ... so they surrounded the Dalai Lama’s palace, not let him go to Chinese theater. Then he snuck out one night with the help of Tibetan freedom fighters. My father was one of them.” Nine days later, the Chinese government began to drop bombs to break up the uprising. From his perch in the surrounding mountains, Anyetsang saw Chinese shells destroy the Tibetan capital. More than 80,000 Tibetans were killed. “We walk around, there’s thousands of bodies lying around, blood everywhere,” he said. “And then, curious, we went down to see it and we see bodies all over. All over.” He fled Lhasa three days later, leaving his family behind. He found refuge in India, living there for more than a decade before coming to the SEE TIBETAN, PAGE 6
Plan seeks interdisciplinary majors BY ANNA HYZY akhyzy@indiana.edu @annakhyzy
New majors and minors are likely in the near future for IU. The provost’s Strategic Plan is seeking to make interdisciplinary education more accessible with the creation of unique academic programs. Interim Vice Provost for Education Dennis Groth said students seek to enhance their undergraduate experience by pursuing second majors, minors and certificates. “I’m looking at ways that we can investigate the paths that our
students have already taken,” he said. In the process of creating interdisciplinary majors and programs, Groth said he has begun to look at data that shows the most popular major and minor combinations. “I would hope that it would identify either the potential for new joint majors, or just the potential for new services and programs to help students be aware,” he said. Jonathan Elmer is a professor of English and chair of the committee for integrated programs in humanities and arts for the Strategic Plan. He said the model upon which the College of Arts and Sciences is
founded is essentially a model of interdisciplinary learning. “The idea behind it is simple,” he said. “Learn a lot about a few things, but some about a lot of things.” The initiative Elmer is part of in the Strategic Plan seeks to incorporated this model to the entire campus, he said. Larry Singell, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, said he sees a demand for it. “Much of interesting and important problems and the skills to solve these problems sit at the border of

White gives PR, life lessons BY ANNIE GARAU agarau@indiana.edu @agarau6
Eddie White likes to describe himself as a lunatic. Demented, crazy, and different are other words the director of corporate communications for the Indianapolis Pacers used to characterize himself to IU students Monday. “I was so demented when I came out of high school, you know what I wanted to do? I wanted to be a lawyer, or I wanted to be a disc jockey, or I wanted to be a writer for Sesame Street,” he said. Instead, White pursued a career in sports public relations that led him to work for the University of Notre Dame, the Miami Dolphins, Logo 7 and a popular Indiana radio station. White emphasized that his success did not come easily. “As God is my witness, I came in second for nine straight jobs before Notre Dame hired me,” White said. “You’re gonna have rejections and it’s the worst thing in the world. You have to believe.” White also encouraged students to separate themselves from the field by being original. “I’m different. I’m not your typical PR guy,” he said. “But, and I say this very humbly, I’m one of the best sports PR guys in the country. I have this weird ability. I see shit nobody else sees.” One of these things was the potential impact women could have in the sports industry, he said. White said he was one of the first people to start hiring women into the industry typically dominated by men. “I realized a long time ago that women are smarter than we are and they’re tougher than we are,” he
To IU students of the early 1970s, 1972 to 1976 were “dead years.” And that’s not a ’70s band reference. Spirited conversations with friends and classmates about how NASA had lost its focus defined the undergraduate experience of Dr. Ron Williams, lifelong space enthusiast and IU School of Medicine neuroscience professor. “Real space exploration was kind of on hold,” Williams said. “I had always dreamed of somehow contributing to the space program.” Williams said he remembers feeling disappointed in the national space program. “Here, we had been to the moon,” he said. “If we had kept on that same track and same pace, we could have been colonizing the moon and making trips to Mars by the 1980s.” At 60 years old, Willams will get a chance to reconcile those feelings of disappointment he once had with

said to a group of women who stayed to chat after the speech. Another unconventional tactic White uses in his job is keeping up to date on celebrity news. “How many PR guys who work with the NFL religiously read People magazine?” he said. “I get People and Star because I want to know which famous actress is chasing which quarterback. I can use that.” Along with originality, White also recommended students be prepared to pay their dues. He gave examples of success stories like Norby Williamson, the ESPN Inc. executive senior vice president of studio and event production who began his career with the company working as a driver. Another man who began working in the ESPN mailroom later became the corporation’s president. White shared his enthusiasm about the Pacers’ successful season and the PR
advantages that have come with it. Winning is the greatest marketing tool there is, he said. “If the people in Indiana think the Pacers are getting better, then the Pacers are getting better,” White explained. White said he believes this philosophy can also be applied to IU. “The problem I have with Indiana is you should be like Stanford,” he said. “You should win in every frickin’ sport. It should be like, ‘We’re Indiana. We’re gonna fucking win.’” But noting the Pacers’ recent losses, White said that winning organizations need to carefully avoid arrogance. “We’ve lost four in a row and I’m like a hockey goalie deflecting,” he said. “You get the dumbest people calling in to sports shows.” MaryClaire Cieply, a senior who organized the event, said she appreciated White’s straightforward approach. “I think he was great,”

NASA during his college years. Williams has been selected to take part in a NASAfunded study that will place scientists in Earth’s most Mars-like conditions. He and five other scientists will spend four months in a white-walled, domed facility in Hawaii designed to simulate a space mission on the red planet, Mars. Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation, or HI-SEAS, will study the human factors that contribute to astronauts’ functioning and performance during lengthy “space travel,” according to a press release. Williams will research the psychological effects of confinement as the group conducts experiments inside and outside the geodesic dome. Williams spent years fostering a passion for the stars as a child, he said. “I grew up during the space race, that was the golden era for space exploration,” Williams said. “I knew every mission and collected newspaper articles. I still have a lot of newspapers from that time.”
RON WILLIAMS is an adjunct professor at IU School of Medicine
He said this is the closest he’ll ever come to being in space. “It’s truly an honor,” he said. “I never thought that at 60 I’d be able to do this.” The other five researchers are mostly in their upper twenties, with the oldest being 34 years old, Williams said. “I think it’s cool that, despite his age, he still does things like this,” said Williams’ son, an IU sophomore, Nick Williams. “This has been a bucket list item for sure. I’m really happy for him.” Williams said he hopes that, as he learns about life on Mars, interacting with the younger scientists will keep him entertained. “I’m a little nervous about getting cabin fever,” Williams said. “I hope that my love for getting to know other people and my passion for learning about space will make the time pass quicker.”
Cieply said. “He’s not as timid as other speakers. He gives you the cold hard truth.” Junior Margaret Hicks agreed White’s talk was helpful for students pursuing careers in the field. “It was a pretty informative, laid back perspective on the sports industry,” Hicks said. “It helped me know where to go as a college student since we’re all naive and don’t know what the hell we’re doing.” When speaking about the future, White said he envisions having his own sports talk show on satellite radio. “You have to have a dream,” he said. “You gotta know what you wanna do.” Although he said it is important to think about the future, White reminded students to enjoy the present. “College is fun,” he said. “Enjoy it. Because when you get on this side of the fence it sucks.”
One of the two tickets that had declared its intention to run in the IU Student Association election dropped out Monday, leaving PLUS for IUSA’s campaign unopposed. Presidential candidate and freshman Andrew Ireland explained on the ticket’s Facebook page Monday that his ticket Unify IU for IUSA was dropping out because he felt it couldn’t compete with PLUS for IUSA. With a ticket dropping so soon before the deadline to apply, March 14, there’s little chance another ticket will have the time to form a campaign and run, IUSA President Jose Mitjavila said. According to Election Commissioner Jared Thomas, Unify IU for IUSA was the other ticket expected to run. It expressed its intention to join the IUSA election at a callout meeting and created social media pages for its campaign. Unify IU for IUSA did not contact the Election Commissioner or IUSA to formally withdraw, Thomas and Mitjavila said. In the Facebook post, Ireland said PLUS for IUSA’s established support group was “unbeatable,” adding that it consisted of “recycled IUSA members, a handful of select Greek organizations and ‘friends’ of the current administration’s work.” Ireland was recently elected as the president of Forest Quad. Plus for IUSA Congressional campaign director Ty Nocita was not affiliated with Youniversity, the executive ticket led by Student Body President Jose Mitjavila that

The Kelley Direct online MBA program is at the top of the ranks again. Kelley Direct at the Kelley School of Business was ranked fifth worldwide by The Financial Times, a business publication based in the United Kingdom, according to a March 10 IU press release. This is the third Top-five ranking for the online program in the past two months. The Financial Times is one of the world’s leading business news publications. Idalene Kesner, dean of the Kelley School, said the multiple honors for the program are tributes to its innovative curriculum, international experiences and outstanding faculty. The Financial Times also ranked Kelley Direct No. 1 for research, No. 2 in program delivery, No. 3 in online interaction and No. 5 for career services, according to the press release. This year was the first time the Financial Times ranked online MBA programs, according to the press release.
“Our faculty members are engaged with our students online and offline,” Kesner said in the release. “Students can work according to their schedules but also connect with professors in real time. And they work in teams with real companies on real challenges.” “Our online program incorporates these key experiences from our in-residence program, as well as leadership and career training and international trips that provide global experiential learning.” Kelley Direct shares faculty with the business school. The admissions requirements for the online program are the same as for all other Kelley MBA programs. The masters degrees available through the online program are in finance, global supply, chain management, marketing and strategic management. During the past two months, Kelley Direct has also received U.S. News and World Report’s No. 1 overall ranking from more than 200 programs nationwide. Kelley Direct began in

won this year. He worked with the SPARC campaign as a representative in Congress, which consists of multiple campaigns that work together throughout the year. He said Plus for IUSA was making efforts to hear the most voices possible by talking with Residential Programs and Services student governments. They’re also trying to recruit both greek and nongreek members, particularly in Congress, he said. “At the end of the day a lot of the people running for IUSA are already involved in IUSA,” Nocita said. “There’s a reason for that.” Thomas said he found the single-ticket election disappointing, and he wished the ticket had approached him earlier with their concerns. “That is usually what happens every year,” Thomas said. “But I wish he would have stuck with it. He could have tried to give it a shot and see what happens.” If only one ticket runs, as outlined in the Election Code, Thomas said, it still has to run a campaign and try to obtain votes. Thomas said his goal is to find student leaders on campus willing to put together a campaign and run against Plus for IUSA. He said he intends to look over the constitution to see if he can push back the application for deadlines to give interested students more time. “My goal as Election Commissioner is to get as many people involved,” Thomas said. “If there’s any way we can get a second ticket, that’s where I’m looking right now.”

Lehrman talks political speechwriting style BY GRACE PALMIERI gpalmier@indiana.edu @grace_palmieri
It was 2009 and the Obamas had just moved into the White House. Several families were visiting, including an African-American family with a young boy, age five. Looking up at the president, the boy asked Obama if he could feel his hair. The president bent over. Stroking his head, the boy said, “It’s just like mine.” At that moment, a photo was snapped, a photo that would be hung in the west wing of the White House. “People can see the symbolism of that story,” said Robert Lehrman, a political speechwriter, in a talk Monday in the Ernie Pyle Auditorium. “You can move people with a story like that in a way that nothing else can.” He explained the essentials of political speechwriting to IU students in his lecture called, “What’s So Hard About Writing a Great Speech?” Lehrman spoke about speech writing style and being able to write in a way that is accessible to many different audiences. Recounting his personal experiences writing speeches for politicians, he discussed the limits and opportunities of political communication. “What people like to appreciate is that speakers have a number of limitations,” Lehrman said. “We’re limited by what people understand, by what they know and what they believe.” Lehrman was the first Chief Speechwriter in the White House for Vice President Al Gore, and he wrote

Political speechwriter Robert Lehrman shares some of his favorite anecdotes about the speeches he has written for politicians on Monday in the Ernie Pyle Auditorium. Lehrman’s new book, The Political Speechwriter’s Companion, discusses what makes speeches effective and how politics affect the process of speechwriting.
more than 250 speeches for him. He said he has spent the majority of his career writing speeches for politicians, as well as CEOs and celebrities. A public speaking professor at American University since 1998, Lehrman created the school’s first speechwriting course in 2005. Lehrman, a graduate of Tufts University, now teaches classes at four different universities in Washington, D.C. He also writes political articles in his own name, which have been published in the Washington Post and New York Times, among other publications. His most recent book is
“The Political Speechwriter’s Companion: A Guide for Speakers and Writers.” Among a plethora of speechwriting tips Lehrman gave students, he said using simple language while speaking publicly is most effective. “The average American reads at a seventh-grade level,” he said. “That means, to me, accessible words. I don’t say ‘currently,’ I say ‘now.’ I don’t say ‘utilize,’ I say ‘use.’” Lehrman scheduled time to sit in on a journalism class, dine with students at the Hutton Honors College and have breakfast with students who are part of the Political and Civic Engagement program during his visit.
That extra time spent at IU was much more beneficial to students than simply the lecture itself, said Paul Zuradski, former director of speakers and lecturers for Union Board. “Lehrman is being extremely generous with offering to come for the full two days,” Zuradski said. “A lot of times we’ll bring in a speaker for a one-time lecture, but we do want to get them involved in additional activities so they can interact with students in relevant classes and also more informal settings like lunches.” Planning for Lehrman’s visit began at the end of last semester. Ryan Myers, who
attended a class with Lehrman in Washington, D.C., pitched the idea to Union Board. Since then, Union Board has collaborated with the Hutton Honors College to organize the event. “I think the general goal of these lectures is to be both entertaining and educational in some way,” Zuradski said. “With this lecture specifically, I think as long as students walk away having learned something new and also maybe feel like they can critically analyze political communication a little bit better, that would be a good outcome.”
necessary skills by taking a more interdisciplinary approach. Currently, Groth is working to aggregate data he can send on to individual academic units. “Some programs already build a type of interdisciplin-
ary thinking,” he said. He pointed out that units such as the School of Journalism require students to gain at least a concentration in something outside their major. Groth said he is hopeful that once the data is collected, the initiative can work to cre-
ate intellectual diversity and make students more aware of interdisciplinary options. One way of doing this would be providing students in each major a list of the top five ranked second majors or minors, he said. Still, Groth said the initia-
tive to create these new majors and programs is very much in the conversation stage. “Everybody would love it today,” he said. “I would too, but we know the reality on these is that we have to take and approach that helps up to be successful in the long-run.”

Still no post-racial society With Black History Month recently coming to a close, analysis of our society’s current state of racism comes with a dismal conclusion. Although pop culture may allude to a vast change from racial acceptance of the past, beneath the surface we’re really a very similar society to the one in which many of Black History Month’s honorees lived and pushed to change. It’s been more than 50 years since Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I Have A Dream” speech before thousands of people at the Lincoln Memorial. It’s not a hard concept to grasp, yet more than five decades later it’s apparently still challenging to implement. One day a school cafeteria staff will have enough common sense to understand that creating a school lunch menu of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, collard greens and apples claiming to be a tribute to Black History Month is offensive. One day a student section at a high school basketball game will have enough respect for the opposing team, composed primarily of African American players, to ILLUSTRATION BY WILL ROYAL
Barbie’s better version The world’s most popular doll, Mattel’s Barbie, turned 55 this week, though you would never know it by looking at her. Considering how long she has been around, it’s no surprise the doll has caused a bit of trouble — mostly surrounding her figure. Fortunately, an independent toy maker has offered a more realistic alternative. If Barbie were a real girl, the constant attention to her unhealthy proportions would be annoying and insulting. However, she isn’t flesh and blood. The unhealthy lifestyle isn’t something she is doing to herself — it’s something her influence is doing to her child consumers. Everybody that has ever heard of Barbie knows about the doll’s crazy unrealistic proportions. If she were real, she wouldn’t be able to support her own weight and would have to crawl on her hands and knees. Not that her hands would be any big support, seeing as her wrists would only be 3.5 inches around. It’s not hard to make the connection that the millions of young girls who see Barbie as a role model see her literally unattainable body type as the ideal. It’s equally easy to make the connection to the growing rates of eating disorders occurring in children younger than 12. The doll’s latest occupation as the cover girl on the annual swimsuit addition of Sports Illustrated has caused quite the scandal. The cover is notoriously reserved for the world’s sexiest women to be scantily clad and ogled. Choosing to have a children’s toy fill this roll sends the wrong message both the consumers of the magazine and to the consumers of Barbie dolls. The magazine has oversexualized a doll. Barbie’s main function is as a stand in for children’s imaginative versions of themselves. That’s creepy. Fortunately, there is another side to Barbie’s perpetual controversy.
JORDAN RILEY is a sophomore majoring in comp lit.
Last year, a digital rendering of a “realistic Barbie” went viral. The image shows the typical Mattel Barbie standing next to a shorter, wider doll, whose proportions are congruent with the average measurements of a 19-year-old woman in the United States. Since then, creator Nickolay Lamm launched a successful Kickstarter campaign to create his line of dolls with the same average measurements. Lamm will create a line of what he calls “Lammily” dolls. The dolls will also have bendable arms, wrists, knees and feet, so the doll has a wider range of mobility, allowing for a wider range of sports and activities. His idea is if the toy companies won’t change to accommodate concerns as to negative effects of their toys, then people should create toys that send better messages. The project has already tripled the goal amount of the crowdfunding campaign — the public seems almost desperate for this doll. Barbie’s 55th birthday has proved to be a polarizing one. One side of the reaction shows how far society still has to come against over sexualization of young girls, and acceptance of realistic body standards. The other side of society proves to be more progressive and empowering to young girls, accepting that “average is beautiful,” as Lamm’s campaign tells us. After 55 years, it’s time for Barbie’s toy queen successor. Between being a doctor and an astronaut, you know Barbie must have worked up quite a retirement fund. jordrile@indiana.edu @RiledUpIDS

Unlike many analysts and experts who provide laundry lists of reasons why certain groups feel more entitled than others or why exactly racism is still so prevalent in our culture, my problems and irritation with the subject matter come quite plainly. A lot of it is just a blatant lack of common sense. I don’t believe the cafeteria staff meant to offend their student population by tying fried chicken to black culture. However, common sense would have predicted it. It’s a possibility those high school students actually selected the jungle theme to dig at a widely used racial slur. The scum bags of the world will continue to harp on irrelevant, untruthful and unnecessary racial topics until they turn blue in the face. Unfortunately, that will probably never change. However, common sense would have told those students that if they were purposefully dressing in a way to insult and offend the opposing team and fans, their

school would have to take action. Racism is an ever-present issue. We all know that. There are millions of reasons people give for the actions that come out as racism, and though I don’t believe any of them are credible, they’re constantly reoccurring. However, its reoccurrence can be considerably consolidated if people would just apply a little bit of intelligence to possible actions and decisions beforehand. I’m tired of reading stories like the ones previously mentioned because of how dimwitted they really are. There’s truly no excuse for it. If common sense really is the genius of humanity, then let’s start applying it to prevent events like this from happening and stick to themeless chicken nuggets and soggy fries in the lunch line. cnmcelwa@indiana.edu @clairemc_IDS
MICHAEL’S MUSINGS
Obama’s idealistic geopolitics As this column goes to press, rapid developments in both Ukraine and Venezuela have made an unfortunate shamble of the Obama Administration’s foreign policy, which has a hopelessly idealistic tint. That is not to say it is wrong to have ideals and to cherish them above the murky abyss of geopolitical wheeling and dealing. But the president and his advisers, unfortunately, look increasingly feckless against the likes of Vladimir Putin, Nicolas Maduro, Kim Jong Un, Bashar al-Assad and Ayatollah Khamenei. As much as we might like to pretend otherwise, these men find words much less persuasive than this administration believes. Obama has been scared of the repercussions of his political base should he move to confront these strongmen. Obama has scored a couple of wins, such as the 2011 raid that killed Osama Bin Laden and the drone campaign in Pakistan. But dealing with the machinations of nations still stuck in the mentality of Cold
War politics has been far less successful. A gradual weakening of American power and prestige abroad has sent our global allies scrambling for cover and encouraged the tin-pot tyrants of the world like never before. Nowhere was this drift towards isolationism more apparent than when the pipe dream of George W. Bush’s “freedom agenda” came true in 2009 and in 2011. The Arab Spring provided an opportunity for the United States to lead and be at the forefront of promoting concepts like rule of law and free and fair elections in one of the least free regions of the world, but devolved into bitter cynicism and a political stalemate. The Obama Administration saw the collapse of the old regimes, yet failed to lead with the new. Egypt remains smoldering after the collapse of a Muslim Brotherhood government. Syria has developed into a crucible for the region’s most dangerous powers and for our supposed allies acting to create a sectarian war. Iraq is seemingly splitting once again, and the less said about

Libya, the better. While these situations seem grim, it is not too late in other parts of the world. Protestors in Ukraine and Venezuela are defying oppressive governments and invasive military action. But they cannot do so alone. Thankfully, sanctions have finally begun, but my belief is these sanctions might come too late. Even more potent economic restrictions against Russian oligarchs, along with a firm show of support diplomatically and militarily for the people of Ukraine, would go a long way toward convincing Putin to back off. Keep up the pressure on Maduro, lest we see a repeat of the antics of Hugo Chavez for the next decade. The time for words is long passed. It is time for action. mjsu@indiana.edu
EDDIE’S INDIANA
When frats stop running from bad press As a member of a fraternity, I have drunk the KoolAid, but I also know when to spit it out. Which is why I find media coverage of the greek system fascinating. One of the most interesting bits I’ve heard on campus before is the idea that the press has it out for greeks — allegedly because the press inadequately covers all the greek system’s commendable efforts while underscoring its shortcomings. The coverage many in the greek system decry might actually help save it. Last week the national headquarters of Sigma Alpha Epsilon announced the fraternity would officially ban pledging, the process used to initiate new members into fraternities. As reason for the change, the fraternity cited the high number of hazing-related deaths that have occurred under its pledgeship in chapters across the country, which led Bloomberg News to label SAE “The Deadliest Frat In America” this past December. In January, Bloomberg’s Editorial Board called for a ban on fraternities on college campuses because of the state of the greek system nationwide.
It now seems SAE got the message. And it’s only a matter of time before other fraternity chapters follow SAE’s cue. What has otherwise been dismissed as vitriol-laced press for fraternities is now being recognized as legitimate criticism. In the age of smartphones and social media, the national offices of fraternities can no longer sustain the cognitive dissonance they’ve employed to respond to criticism. In the past, national offices have beautifully articulated what their organizations should stand for while what is really going on at their chapters — many times shared via Instagram and other social media — ends up on the Huffington Post, to the dismay of alumni, university administrators and fraternities’ legal counsel. Too often, national headquarters choose to distance themselves from the individual chapters. They blame chapters instead of the national office taking responsibility for their chapters’ behavior. This is why SAE’s move to end pledging should be commended. The national organization is finally holding itself

accountable for its chapters while also being proactive in maintaining the safety of its members. More pointed commentary has underlined another less-publicized reason for the pledging ban. As TV analyst Joe Concha pointed out, “Why the change? ... More scrutiny from the two types of people greek members fear most: cops and lawyers.” Regardless, the increased scrutiny facilitated by technology wouldn’t be possible without the bad press that results from it, which many greeks and national offices can’t stand. While Twitter hashtags and philanthropy events will not change the dangerous culture that exists in some chapters, it seems public scrutiny facilitated by one of the greatest institutions — the free press — can. If our community can’t be accountable, the media will. edsalas@indiana.edu

Increase in federal budget aids education FROM IDS REPORTS
The Obama Administration included $69 billion in discretionary appropriations for the U.S. Department of Education in its budget for the 2015 Fiscal Year, a 2-percent increase from the 2014 budget. About 90 percent of the appropriations are earmarked to provide resources to disadvantaged, poor and
minority students, students with disabilities and students learning English. “President Obama’s budget request reflects his strong belief that education is a vital investment in the nation’s economic competitiveness, in its people and in its communities,” U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan said in a U.S. DOE press release. “Despite the encouraging
progress we’ve seen, wide opportunity and achievement gaps continue to hurt many families, which puts our nation’s economy and future at risk.” Obama has also proposed a new “Race to the Top — Equity and Opportunity” initiative. This plan would create incentives for states and school districts to take steps to close achievement gaps,
including the opportunity to apply for grants. Additionally, Obama proposed the ConnectEDucators initiative, which would provide schools with funding to help them give their students access to the best technology to make them college- and careerready, according to the press release. The administration is requesting $1.3 billion to

Mitch Daniels in 2007 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It also would repeal certain provisions related to addiction treatment and remove some other more detailed regulations related to how insurance is filed by foreign insurers. As a result of the reductions, there would be minimal decreases in spending for the relevant state agencies,
said this is important because most people do not communicate primarily by U.S. Mail anymore, but the regulations surrounding the insurance industry in Indiana have not adapted to modern communication technology.

Bill would kill energy efficiency program FROM IDS REPORTS
A bill passed in the Indiana House of Representatives Feb. 26 would bring Energize Indiana, an energysaving organization, to an end. The House accepted the bill by a margin of 69-26. The bill would make it impossible to “extend, renew or require the establishment of an energy efficiency program” after Dec. 31, 2014. Electricity customers would be allowed to opt out of participating in energy efficiency programs, according to the bill. In other words, electricity companies would not be allowed to charge consumers for energy efficiency program costs. Among other services, Energizing Indiana offers home energy assessments for residences. The organization boasts being able to reduce energy bills, improve home performance, increase the residence’s value and improve air quality. Energizing Indiana
sends an energy auditor who installs energy-efficient shower heads, highly efficient light bulbs and implements other energy saving measures. The bill also stipulates that the Utility Regulatory Commission, a fact-finding body part of the Indiana state government, ought to produce a status report on energy efficiency programs including Energize Indiana. Energize Indiana is funded by small additions to electricity bills. Senate Bill 340 cites “lost revenues” and program costs as reasons for the organization’s inefficiency. The Senate agreed Monday to accept amendments to the bill by a vote of 36-8. Six energy companies are currently participants of the Energizing Indiana Program, including Duke Energy and other major suppliers, according to the organization’s website. M.K Wildeman

United States, where he settled in Bloomington. After 40 frustrating years of inactivity from world leaders about Tibet, he opened Fourth Street’s Little Tibet restaurant, which he uses as a tool for his message of Tibetan freedom. “I wanted the general public to know. I thought the best way to educate was to have a humble restaurant,� he said. “So since we opened, lots of customers come and say, ‘Oh, what is Tibetan food?’ Then they ask about me ... So I do my best. Everything I know, our history, and let them ask questions.� Food with a message. To remember. That’s how he finds himself here, on the steps of the Monroe County Courthouse in Bloomington, 55 years after Tibet was torn away from him. He and 11 others stand, candles lit and Tibetan flags raised high, singing the Tibetan national anthem in unison. Some, like Anyetsang, are native Tibetans. He estimates there are more than a dozen in Bloomington. Others, like Lisa Hilgeman, simply stand in support. “I have been connected with Buddhism since 1999, and actually am connected to China through my father, who was born there,� she said. “I’ve had the opportunity to travel to Tibet on three different occasions after making friends with a number of Tibetans in exile.� The group gathered at IU’s Sample Gates and marched to the courthouse, stopping to speak with curious passersby or to pass out flyers. “I think we’re just trying to raise the message to everyone, both within the government as well as average Americans, so that they’re aware of what happened inside Tibet starting in the 1940s,� she said. At the courthouse, against a blood-red sky that slowly faded to black, Anyetsang walked up the steps to the foot of the Alexander Memorial — dedicated “to the soldiers of all wars� — and spoke. “Today is a very sad day,� he said, his low voice barely

EDITORIAL BOARD
One battle is more than enough WE SAY: Real patriotism protects everyone. On Thursday, the United States Senate debated a bill that would take sexual assault cases and other major civilian crimes out of the military chain of command by allowing military trial lawyers to decide whether or not to bring those cases to the courts-martial. The bill, sponsored by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., was fiercely debated in the Senate before it was defeated in a 5545 vote, falling short of the 60 votes required to overcome a filibuster. Indiana’s Senators were split on the issue at hand. Sen. Joe Donnelly, D-Ind., voted in favor of the bill. Sen. Dan Coats, R-Ind., voted against it. In 2011, 26,000 men and women in the military were sexually assaulted. “The Invisible War,” a documentary about military sexual assault, explains how many of these sexual assaults are perpetrated by ranking officers in the military. The current system places these same ranking officers in charge of deciding whether or not to bring a sexual assault case to trial. Gillibrand argued the bill was designed to protect men and women in the military from sexual assault. Many female senators, most of who voted for the bill, questioned whether or not the male-dominated military leadership understands how to deal with sexual assault effectively. On the other side of the debate, senators argued removing commanding officers from the chain of command would damage morale and military effectiveness and cohesiveness. The Editorial Board categorically condemnns the defeat of this bill. In particular, the fact that one of our own senators voted against it should bring shame to our state. This defeat underscores the underlying issues surrounding our male-dominated military and government. And while the armed forces ought to be respected, the safety of our women and men in uniform shouldn’t come second to the cult of worship of our military. Sexual assault is a major problem in the military. Our elected officials, on both sides of the aisle, seem too willing to turn a blind eye in favor of pretending our citizens in uniform are infallible. The argument that the bill by Gillibrand would damage the morale of the military is absurd. We don’t buy into
ILLUSTRATIONS BY ALDEA SULLIVAN
the argument that allowing military lawyers to control military conduct cases is damaging to morale. What damages military morale is fearing that your commanding officer could rape you and never face trial. Our lawmakers need to shed this “boys will be boys” attitude when it comes to sexual assault. It isn’t a male
tendency to rape people. That’s a savage, destructive, inhumane tendency. Lawmakers across the country, such as Coats, are perpetuating and advancing the existing rape culture in the U.S. Lawmakers like Coats are more than willing to forego the safety of women in exchange for pandering under the guise of being patriotic.
Patriotism is not turning a blind eye to the problems that we face as a nation. Patriotism is standing up and working to fix those problems. Coats and his 44 friends in the Senate are not patriots. They bring shame upon the Senate, military and U.S. as a whole. When women and men are sexually assaulted by
commanding officers and infantrymen alike, we need a change. We applaud Gillibrand’s truly patriotic efforts to try and make the military safer. God knows they shouldn’t fear their fellow soldiers. opinion@idsnews.com @ids_opinion.

IU Jacobs School Of Music student chamber ensembles studying under the Pacifica Quaret perform at the Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center’s Miller Gallery on Monday.
Though the walls were covered with paintings and the shelves filled with ceramics, audio art was featured in the Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center Monday. As part of the “Chamber Music Mondays” series, three different groups performed at 7 p.m. in the Miller Gallery. The event was free to attend. All performers were students studying with the Pacifica Quartet, the quartetin-residence at the Jacobs School of Music. One year ago, the Pacifica Quartet initiated a series of off-campus chamber music concerts to offer more performance opportunities for the student chamber
ensembles they coach. Later in the semester, the students will play at Rachael’s Café as a part of Classical Revolution, a Bloomington organization that presents classical chamber music performances and readings in informal settings. They will also perform at the Wylie House Museum and perform privately for residents of Bloomington’s Meadowood Retirement Community. Different ensembles will play at each event. The first group to take the stage was the Zorá String Quartet, comprised of Dechopol Kowintaweewat on the violin, Pablo Salido Munoz on the violin, Yang SEE STRING, PAGE 12

Musical trio to play tonight at Bluebird BY ANTHONY BRODERICK aebroder@indiana.edu
Folk-pop trio Pearl and the Beard will perform tonight at 8 p.m. at the Bluebird Nightclub. Emily Hope Price, vocalist and cellist for the band, said the trio went from being a normal folk group to having a more intensified sound in order to appeal to music fans of many genres. “Our group has grown through the years, going from acoustic instruments to a more amplified sound in every genre by incorporating electric instruments and drums,” Price said. Pearl and the Beard has released four albums since 2009. Along with Price, the group consists of Jocelyn Mackenzie and Jeremy Styles. All three members are vocalists and play instruments such as cello, guitar, glockenspiel, accordion and drums. Price, Mackenzie and Styles met and formed Pearl and the Beard while performing at open mic nights in New York City. “It was a transformative experience for all of us,” Price said. “This was the first time I ever performed with my cello, and we all came together, exploring our love for folk song craft.” Since then, the three individuals have produced records with a variety of instrumentals. All three members cowrite the group’s songs by

alternating from person to person who puts their own introspective and cinematic focus on the lyrics while the rest of the group offers input. “It is truly a great opportunity for us to come to Bloomington, because this performance will be more attuned to the listening experience,” Price said. “This will be a different kind of concert set from going to a normal concert where visuals are everything.” Pearl and the Beard are coming to the Bluebird as part of the venue’s monthly Communion tour, which takes place on the second Tuesday of every month. The band is
the only one playing in all nine cities of the tour. Tickets to tonight’s show are $11-15 and attendees must be at least 21 years of age. “Pearl and the Beard have always been firm supporters of Communion Records,” said Molly Moltzen, a member of the band’s management team. “They have always had a great connection with the company, and we’re honored to join the tour with them. What makes Pearl and the Beard so great is how they play the type of music that tackles what music is all about, and that’s bringing people together as a community through sound.”
For history buffs, this is the town where Joan of Arc was burned at the stake. It was one of the most prosperous cities of medieval Europe. Walking through Rouen, it’s easy to notice a distinct style of architecture among the buildings.

It’s common to see tourists and natives alike stroll the boardwalk with an ice cream cone in hand or collecting seashells along the water. Coco Chanel’s first boutique opened in Deauville, and has set a trend for luxury shopping in the area. The town is also home to the Deauville American Film Festival, which was established in 1975.

million visitors each year, Mont Saint-Michel is one of France’s most well known landmarks. The island, along with its bay, is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The abbey from which the island draws its name is the most identifying landmark. The town was constructed reflecting the feudal society of the time, with the abbey and monastery situated at the top, followed by the great halls, then stores and housing. Lastly, the homes of fisherman and farmers were situated outside the base walls. Currently, the site functions as a tourist spot with restaurants and souvenir shops crammed next to one another on the winding, narrow streets leading up to the abbey. anukumar@indiana.edu

Hoosier State likely out of Big Dance As NCAA Tournament Selection Sunday nears, it is becoming more likely that in-state teams will be shut out of the Big Dance. No Indiana team boasts an RPI higher than Indiana State’s No. 74. The Sycamores were
defeated in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament finals by Wichita State. IU is No. 87 in the RPI, with Notre Dame at No. 118, Purdue at No. 122, IPFW at No. 130 and Butler at No. 132.

CAITLIN O’HARA | IDS
Forward Noah Vonleh handles the ball during the game against Penn State at Assembly Hall on Feb. 12.
HOOPS WITH HOOP
Column: Vonleh should stay I don’t know if Noah Vonleh’s coming back. Your guess is as good as mine as to whether Vonleh will leave IU or go to the NBA. The question I can attempt to answer, though — should Vonleh go pro? No. I know this sounds crazy. I know it sounds crazy to leave millions of dollars on the table. I know it sounds crazy to gamble on the future and come back to college for another year when the threat of injury is always looming. I know all the reasons why I’m crazy. But hear me out — I think Vonleh would be better served if he came back to IU for his sophomore year. I’m not saying this for selfish reasons of wanting to watch him play or wanting IU to be better. I genuinely think it’s what is best for Vonleh. Whenever I think of Vonleh, the name Blake Griffin comes to mind. Griffin had a spectacular freshman year at Oklahoma. He averaged 15 points and nine rebounds in 28 minutes per game. He was named first team All-Big 12. He was slated to be a top lottery pick in the NBA draft. So he went pro, right? No. Griffin came back for his sophomore season and lit the world on fire. He averaged 23 points, 14 rebounds
in 33 minutes. He was the No. 1 pick in the draft the next year. Griffin had the chance to be a top 10 lottery pick, but he opted to come back for his sophomore season. He improved, and he was ultimately better served for coming back to school. Vonleh will make a lot of money someday in the NBA. But the IU program has proven it can develop players — just Google the name Oladipo. So if Vonleh has the work ethic — and it sure seems like it — he will get better. He’ll improve his footwork in the post and develop that dangerous David West/ Lamarcus Aldridge/Chris Bosh 18-footer. Vonleh will get better. And all the top players ahead of him will leave. Joel Embiid, Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker, Julius Randle, Dante Exum, Marcus Smart — these guys will probably go pro. With all those guys gone, suddenly the race for the No. 1 pick in 2015 becomes wide open. Sure, the freshman crop coming in next year will be in contention for the No. 1 pick, but Vonleh, as long he continues to get better, will be the frontrunner. And here’s the kicker — Vonleh turns 19 in August. That’s right, he’s been tearing up the Big Ten as an

18-year-old. So even if he decides to come back and enter the draft next year, he would still be a teenager. If Vonleh comes back, the development of these young freshmen plus the addition of 5-star guard James Blackmon Jr. will give IU a legit shot of making a deep run come March. Being on a good team and getting national exposure is also a plus for Vonleh’s future draft stock. If Vonleh decides to leave IU, I can’t blame him. If I were in his situation — don’t worry, IU fans, I’m coming back for my senior season, it turns out there’s not a big demand for 5-foot-9 slow guys in the NBA — I might even leave and take the millions. Whatever he chooses, I wish him the best. It was a pleasure to watch him this year. But Vonleh should come back. Not for Crean. Not for his teammates. Not for Hoosier Nation. But for himself.
The two schools didn’t play in basketball this year, but IU rival Kentucky will come to Bloomington today to take on the Hoosiers baseball team at 4 p.m. The Hoosiers enter the week as the No. 16 team in the country, while the Wildcats are slotted at No. 20. This past weekend, IU took 2-of-3 in a series against Jacksonville. Senior pitcher Joey DeNato took his first loss of the year in game one, as IU fell 4-3. The Hoosiers offense came to life in the last two games when they totaled 16 runs en route to victories. “Hopefully, we’ll get a little more consistency (with the offense),” IU Coach Tracy Smith said. “I’m hoping that we’ll see more improvements there.” IU (7-6) has its first winning record of the season and will have to calm the Kentucky offense, which scored 58 runs in just three games against Ball State during the weekend. The Wildcats are 13-3 on the season and have a win over now-No. 3 Virginia. “They’re an SEC team, they’re always solid,” junior first baseman Sam Travis said. “They’re going to play to win and bring their A game. We just have to go in ready to play, treat it like another game, come in with a lot of energy and keep the bats going.”
Kentucky is led by Indiana native A.J. Reed, a junior who has eight home runs and 28 RBIs to go along with a .436 batting average this season. He is helped by junior Austin Cousino who is batting .443 with one homerun and 10 RBIs. Kentucky has six starters batting .343 or above. “They’ve always been good,” Smith said. “We’ve struggled to get the win against them. It’s certainly going to be a challenge and we look forward to the challenge. “If we have good approaches and throw strikes, we’ll have a chance to win the game.” It will be junior lefthander Kyle Hart on the mound for IU. He is 1-1 with a 3.38 ERA this year, and he got the win in IU’s home opener against Xavier last week. He also pitched the ninth inning in the last game against Jacksonville for the second time this season. “I don’t care if I throw mop-up innings, I don’t care if I’m throwing Friday, Saturday, Sunday or midweeks,” Hart said. “I’m happy to do anything to get more wins on the board for us.” Hart said he prepares as if the Hoosiers aren’t going to score each game, and he has to go out and give up no runs. “That’s kind of how you want to go about it,” Hart said.
IU’s past 6 games No. 20 Kentucky last 6 games (5-1) WIN vs. Ball State 26-3 WIN vs. Ball State 24-1 LOSS vs. Ball State 10-8 (10) WIN vs. Cincinnati 11-4 WIN vs. Cincinnati 7-0 WIN vs. Eastern Michigan 13-2 No. 16 IU last 6 games (5-1) WIN vs. Jacksonville 7-6 WIN vs. Jacksonville 9-2 LOSS vs. Jacksonville 4-3 WIN vs. Xavier 2-1 WIN vs. Louisville 6-2 WIN vs. Toledo 8-3 “If we score 10 runs, that’s great, and if you score one, that should be fine, too.” He will be opposed by left-hander Dylan Dwyer, who is 1-0 with a 3.00 ERA . The sophomore threw a complete game shutout against Cincinnati earlier this year. IU is led by junior catcher Kyle Schwarber, who is batting .333 with two home-runs and seven RBIs. Junior second baseman Casey Rodrigue is batting .321 with four RBIs, and Travis is batting .320 with 11 RBIs. “We have to be ready to play,” Smith said.

IU basketball guard Troy Williams named Big Ten Freshman of the Week FROM IDS REPORTS
IU freshman guard Troy Williams was named Big Ten Freshman of the Week Monday. Williams averaged 17 points and four rebounds in the Hoosiers’ last two games.
It was his first Freshman of the Week honor and the eighth time an IU player has earned the title this season. Williams scored 18 points on 7-for-12 shooting against Nebraska and was 2-for-2 from 3-point range. He also grabbed six rebounds.
The Hampton, Va., native followed up that performance by scoring 16 points on 8-for-9 shooting at Michigan Saturday. He is averaging 7.2 points and 4.4 rebounds this season.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8 Guo on the viola and Zizai Ning on the cello. The group began with the second movement of Ludwig van Beethoven’s “String Quartet No. 16.” “Beethoven’s pieces are usually dark,” Munoz said. “But this one is very bright and playful.” The quartet then proceeded to play all three movements of Bela Bartok’s “String Quartet No. 2.” During spring break, the Zorá Quartet will travel to the Beethoven Haus in Beethoven’s birthplace of Bonn, Germany, as part of IU’s Advanced Quartet Studies Fellowship. The group won the week-long residence in a competition through the music school. The second group to perform consisted of sophomore Kuan-yi Lee and freshman Katherine Kobylarz, the only duet of the evening. The two students played the first two movements of Sergei Prokofiev’s “Sonata for Two Violins.” According to Kobylarz, the composer’s inspiration was unorthodox. “Prokofiev wrote in his autobiography that he heard an absolutely horrible two-violin sonata by an unnamed composer,” she said. “After that, he made it his goal to redeem the genre.” After the violin duet came the final group, consisting of Jenna Barghouti and Joy Vucekovich playing the violin, Ben Wagner on the viola and Graham Cullen on the cello. They began with the second movement of Mozart’s “String Quartet No. 19,” also known as “Dissonance.” “A lot of the dissonance is in the first movement,” Barghouti said. “But there are small patches in the second movement as well.” They proceeded to play the first two movements of Bartok’s “String Quartet No. 4.” Pacifica Quartet students will begin performing regularly starting March 30 at Rachael’s Café and continue until May 5 when they return to perform at Ivy Tech.

Hoosiers receive conference honors FROM IDS REPORTS
Three players from the IU men’s basketball team were honored Monday by Big Ten coaches and media voters. Freshman forward Noah Vonleh was named Freshman of the Year by both coaches and the media. He was also named to the third team AllBig Ten. The other Hoosiers to be honored were sophomore guard Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell and senior forward Will Sheehey. Ferrell was named to the second team All-Big Ten by both the coaches and media. Sheehey was listed as an honorable mention for AllBig Ten by the media. On the season, Vonleh averaged 11.4 points per game and a Big Ten-leading 9.1 rebounds. He was also named to the Big Ten’s All-Freshman Team
and third team All-Big Ten. Vonleh won the Big Ten Freshman of the Week Award seven times this season. He is the 10th IU player to win the award, the first since Cody Zeller in 2012. Ferrell was among the conference leaders in points and assists, averaging 17.4 points and 3.9 assists per game. Ferrell led the Big Ten in made 3-pointers with 86, the second-most made in one season in IU history. Sheehey, who won the Sixth Man of the Year award last season, averaged 11.4 points and 4.1 rebounds per game this season. He was also named IU’s recipient of the Big Ten Sportsmanship Award. One Sportsmanship Award is awarded per team in the conference. The accolades given to Ferrell, Sheehey and Vonleh
give IU Coach Tom Crean seven All-Big Ten honorees during his six seasons in Bloomington. Other 2014 Big Tennotables included Michigan sophomore guard Nik Stauskas winning the Conference Player of the Year. Stauskas led the Wolverines to a 15-3 conference record and the Big Ten Title. Stauskas, Michigan State’s Gary Harris, Iowa’s Roy Devyn Marble, Nebraska’s Terran Petteway and Wisconsin’s Frank Kaminsky were named first team All-Big Ten. The coaches voted Nebraska’s Tim Miles for Coach of the Year, while the media selected Michigan’s John Beilein as its choice. IU will play Illinois at noon Thursday in the first round matchup between the No. 8 and No. 9 seeds. John Bauernfeind
