Moore found guilty of murder

By Nyssa Kruse nakruse@iu.edu | @NyssaKruse

Johnny T. Moore was found guilty of three charges Friday, which includes murder for the Aug. 28, 2016, death of Bloomington resident and heroin dealer Brittany Sater.

“Yes,” Sater’s mother said loudly enough that she was chastised by the bailiff, as the verdict was announced.

Moore’s head fell back as he heard the word, “guilty,” and he cried after all three convictions were read.

Moore, 32, faces 45 to 65 years for the murder conviction and additional time for his other two convictions for burglary and robbery resulting in serious bodily injury.

His sentencing is scheduled for May 8.

Because Sater was an addict, her mother, Deanna Hawkins,

Archie Miller reportedly has his coaching staff finalized.

The new IU coach will bring former Dayton assistant Tom Ostrom, former Drexel head coach Bruiser Flint and former UCLA assistant Ed Schilling into Bloomington as assistant coaches, according to a report from Jeff Goodman of espn.com.

Goodman also reported that former Dayton director of basketball operations Bill Comar will fill the same role for IU. Ostrom has been an assistant to Miller since 2011 at Dayton and got his first coaching role for Billy Donovan at Florida in 1998.

Ostrom served as the Gators’ administrative assistant and video coordinator for five seasons and spent his final two years with the program as an assistant coach.

Ostrom went on to join John Pelphrey at South Alabama for three seasons and followed him to Arkansas in 2007 for four more years. In his final year with the Razorbacks, Ostrom helped bring in the seventh-rated recruiting class in the country before joining Miller at Dayton.

Flint, a Philadelphia native, will get his first coaching gig in the Midwest. A 1987 graduate of St. Joseph’s, Flint became an assistant at Coppin State following his playing days. Two years later he joined current Kentucky head coach John Calipari’s staff at Massachusetts as an assistant in 1989.

Flint was part of five consecutive Atlantic-10 titles at UMass and made five consecutive NCAA tournaments and one Final Four under the direction of Calipari.

When his head coach left for the NBA in 1996, Flint took over and led the Minutemen to two consecutive NCAA tournament appearances.

Octavia Spencer discusses industry diversity

By Alyson Malinger afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali

Educate, entertain, enlighten, escape.

These are the qualities that award-winning actress Octavia Spencer defined as her template when picking a role within the entertainment industry.

Spencer spoke Sunday in the IU Auditorium as part of Union Board’s lecture series.

As the auditorium filled, many audience members skipped and jumped as they were escorted to their seats.

Her lecture, “Real Honest: An Afternoon with Octavia Spencer,” discussed typecasting in Hollywood.

“I don’t want to constantly be reminded of my race and gender at every turn,” Spencer said.

Attempting to take race out of the mix, Spencer said she thinks if people would allow others to stop labeling them they would find a new peace of mind.

“If the character doesn’t have something about them, if they are too bland on the page, then I’m not going to play it,” Spencer said.

During the lecture Spencer shared some of her own experiences with issues of diversity and gender discrimination while in the acting field. Spencer played the role of a nurse 16 times from 1996 to 2013 and won her 2012 Academy Award for portraying Minny Jackson, a house maid, in the film “The Help.”

“I choose projects rather than

roles,” Spencer said.

She said playing roles that tell her she’s black are unnecessary because she already knows her identity. Also, she said she hopes to inspire feeling comfortable in one’s skin rather than just be an inspiration.

“If I don’t treat people the way I want to be treated then I don’t sleep well,” Spencer said. “And I need as much sleep as I can get because I have insomnia.”

Spencer said her favorite part of her job is that it doesn’t feel like one.

“When it starts feeling like a job then I’ll have to stop,” Spencer said.

The event was structured as a question-and-answer, led by the assistant director of lectures, Alexis Burr. Audience members had the opportunity to tweet questions using #realhonest so their particular voices were being heard as well.

The identities that made her up

as a woman, African-American, orphan and Oscar winner, among others, were all addressed within the questions asked.

“Even at the university level when you are just starting there can be typecasting in all levels of the arts,” said Jake McCutcheon, an audience member and sophomore at IU. SEE SPENCER, PAGE 4

Walk fundraises for HIV prevention, services

By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu @bemcafee24601

More than 150 people walked the B-Line Trail on Friday to raise awareness of HIV and AIDS in Indiana and to raise money for HIV prevention and services.

The South Central Indiana AIDS Walk was a fundraiser for Positive Link, a program of IU Health that provides HIV prevention efforts and social services across south central Indiana.. The program provides free services to people in 23 counties.

The event raised more than $19,000, and Positive Link is still accepting donations through the AIDS Walk website until April 14.

The event began with a family festival at the parking lot on the corner of Third Street and College Avenue.

As participants gathered for the walk, the Jefferson Street Parade Band led the way with music as people walked from the B-Line Trail’s pedestrian bridge on Third Street to City Hall.

Community AIDS Action Group of South Central Indiana member Meredith Short said the walk is an essential fundraiser for Positive Link, which is primarily funded by grants.

“This walk is a really important way to fill in the gaps and make sure Positive Link’s programs stay funded in

“This walk is a really important way to fill in the gaps and make sure Positive Link’s programs stay funded in between grant cycles and that sort of thing” Meredith Short, fundraiser for Positive Link

between grant cycles and that sort of thing,” Short said.

The event used to be called the Bloomington AIDS Walk, but the name changes to reflect how Positive Link’s services extend across the south central area, Short said.

Members of the Indiana Recovery Alliance set up their van at the festival to discuss their resources for HIV treatment and prevention, including their needle exchange program and outreach services.

Indiana Recovery Alliance founder and director Chris Abert said the AIDS Walk allows the community to know the resources available in the area, whether it is Positive Link or Indiana Recovery Alliance.

He said there are many people in the organization working to “get to zero” with HIV and make sure people have the care they need.

“Given enough awareness

and enough funding, we can see the end of HIV within our lifetimes,” Abert said.

Indiana Recovery Alliance member Alex Mann said the organization wants to erase the large stigma attached to drug users and offer assistance to people affected by HIV, hepatitis C or drug addiction without any religious or

political dogma attached. ”Part of our mission is to just re-humanize people in the eyes of other people,” Mann said.

Bloomington Pride chair Janae Cummings provided information about the organization at a table at the festival. She said she came to the walk to show Bloom-

ington Pride’s support for Positive Link.

“This event is really important because HIV seriously impacts the LGBTQ community, and we will always be here to support any program or any group that is doing work to support individuals in our community,” Cummings said.

She said she wants people to know that HIV is still a serious problem.

“We hear a lot less about HIV these days, and because of that, it’s not at the top of the line, and it needs to be,” Cummings said. “HIV awareness is always important. It can’t be something that we forget about.”

Food Truck Friday returns with two new vendors

By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu @bemcafee24601

Gyros, tacos, grilled cheese and barbeque are just a few of the options offered at Food Truck Friday, which began its season last week.

Ice cream store the Chocolate Moose is the host of the weekly event, a gathering of local food trucks and vendors that takes place every Friday until the end of October.

New vendors this year are 812 BBQ and Kebab on Wheels. Other food trucks include the Chocolate Moose, the Big Cheeze, La Poblana Taco Truck, Red Frazier Bison Cuisine, the Gyro Truck and more.

The food trucks set up in the in the parking lot of the First United Methodist Church in Bloomington from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Every month, Food Truck Friday raises money for a different cause. This month, it is fundraising

for First United Methodist Church’s Wednesday food pantry.

Food Truck Friday used to be located at the original Chocolate Moose at 401 S. Walnut St., but the building was demolished to make room for a four-story building. The Chocolate Moose plans to open on the first floor of the new building, which is now under construction.

In fall 2016, it moved Food Truck Friday to the current location.

Food Truck Friday started with three trucks and one food cart, Chocolate Moose general manager Jordan Davis said. Now, the event features 12 vendors.

“It was super small, and since then we’ve just grown exponentially,” Davis said.

“It’s been crazy.”

The new location makes the event more visible to the public, he said. There are still many students who do not know about the event, and he hopes more people will attend.

“Moving a block and a half north has made a world of difference just from the visibility standpoint of people knowing what is going on,” Davis said.

Lucy Wortham, 28, said she has been going to Food Truck Friday for about three years.

She said her favorite food truck at the event is Juancho’s Munchies, which serves Venezuelan cuisine.

She tried an arepa, which is a flatbread pocket with savory fillings like meat, cheese and avocado.

“The arepas are so good,” she said. “They’re like a combination between a pita sandwich and a tamale.”

Wortham said she likes the new location, since the space is bigger and allows for more vendors in one location.

There are still plenty of vendors she has not tried yet, she said.

“It’s always a struggle: Do I go with the place that I know that I like, or try something new?” Wortham said.

Customers wait in line for gyros and kebabs at the first Food Truck Friday of the year. Food trucks and booths crowded the back of the First United Methodist Church parking lot for lunch and dinner.

Margaret Easches, 27, said it was her first time at Food Truck Friday. She is from St. Louis, and she spent the weekend visiting friends in Bloomington.

She said food truck events in St. Louis are busier and less frequent than Bloomington’s Food Truck Friday.

She said she prefers the

atmosphere at the Bloomington event.

“This is, like, really good food and really relaxed,” she said.

Craig Duke, who is a Ph.D. student in music theory at IU, said he has been to Food Truck Friday before, but the recent opening was his first time trying Döner Kebab, which sells

European-style gyros.

He said the truck’s chicken gyro was the best gyro he had ever had.

Davis said Food Truck Friday brings the community together with a large variety of good food.

“It’s just like a giant outdoor food court, except the food is all just a step up,” he said.

Experts, panelists address media coverage of refugees

By Rachel Leffers rleffers@indiana.edu | @rachelleffers

During the Syrian civil war, people have been forced to flee their homeland to seek refuge. This situation, known as the Syrian refugee crisis, has been documented by the media, but the process by which this documentation occurs is seldom discussed.

Panelists at the Spotlight on the Refugee Crisis — Roundtable Discussion on Friday addressed how to create media about refugees in times of distress. The panel was part of the third annual In Light Human Rights Documentary Film Festival, which showcased documentaries that focus on human rights from an ethnographic perspective.

Matthias Kossmehl, the director of one of the documentaries, Café Waldluft, shown at the festival, which is about a hotel in Germany that is home to refugees from around the world, said one of the reasons he created the film was to demonstrate the realities of the crisis to the world, specifically in the case of the Holocaust.

“Germany has made so many mistakes,” he said.

“They have learned, but the rest of the world should have learned as well. Society forgets really fast what happened.”

Panelist Jülide Esque, an IU graduate student studying the documentation of the refugee crisis, said through analyzing media about these crises, she worries the refugees are not being repre-

sented accurately. Esque said although documentaries about people in times of crises are often thought to raise the population’s awareness of the current human condition, if they’re not done well, they could perpetuate stereotypical representations about those who are suffering.

“There’s this transformation of the war on terror into a war on race when these refugees are represented in media by those who are not Syrian refugees,” she said.

Esque said there can also be discrepancy between written documentation and produced media of the Syrian refugees. In many of the videos of refugee children fleeing Syria, they are shown holding stuffed animals or blankets. However, in the written

documents, there are stories of young teenagers who are forced into marriage to avoid rape.

Panelist Suncem Kocer earned her Ph.D. from IU in 2012 and is currently a host of Medya Atlası, a weekly media analysis program in Istanbul.

Kocer said she is interested in the process media creators use when documenting refugees.

Because documentary filmmakers are typically independent workers, the stories they tell tend to be more emotional with a social and political agenda, Kocer said.

However, this non-objectivity can lead to a more accurate representation of the refugee crisis because it counters the dominant narrative news outlets tend to tell, she said.

Alexandra Cotofana, a graduate student who started the festival in 2015, asked the panelists and filmmakers how a filmmaker or photographer determines when she or he should put the camera down to help a person who is suffering. The panelists agreed this issue has not been resolved because morality can be blurry in either decision.

Kossmehl said it can be emotionally difficult for filmmakers to decide whether to put the camera down.

He said there are moments during filming when filmmakers have to decide whether the footage they are capturing could be influential enough to make a difference in the world or if simply setting the camera down and helping the person is influential enough.

New IU architecture program to focus on Columbus

By Jesse Naranjo jlnaranj@indiana.edu | @jesselnaranjo

IU will offer a master’s of architecture degree through its recently established School of Art and Design beginning in fall 2018.

Provost Lauren Robel presented the program in her March 2017 State of the Campus, and it was accredited the same week. The master’s degree will have a focus in Columbus, Indiana. The city is a hub of architecture and features at least seven

national historic landmarks and buildings designed by the likes of Harry Weese and I.M. Pei. Weese was instrumental in formulation of the metro system in Washington, D.C., and Pei is best known on the Bloomington campus as the architect who designed the Eskenazi Museum of Art. Columbus’ prestige in the architecture world was kickstarted in the mid-twentieth century by J. Irwin Miller, CEO of diesel engine producer Cummins Incorporated, who offered to pay architect fees

for any new public buildings, given the architects were chosen from a list his company provided.

Eventually, the offer was extended to other nonprofits. The program fits into the Bicentennial Strategic Plan, which calls for creation of programs that meet students’ aspirations, and will also aid in meeting Indiana’s workforce need.

Architecture jobs are expected to increase more than 20 percent in the next five years, according to a press release announcing

the program’s accreditation, which referenced the Indiana Department of Workforce Development.

“The addition of the new Master of Architecture degree program, together with the new program in intelligent systems engineering, will contribute enormously to IU’s efforts to create and sustain a culture of ‘building and making’ on our Bloomington campus,” IU President Michael McRobbie said in the release.

“There’s this transformation of the war on terror into a war on race when these refugees are represented in media by those who are not Syrian refugees.”

Jülide Esque, IU graduate student

“You have two responsibilities that you can claim as a photojournalist,” Cotofana said. “You can either claim that you never drop the camera because your responsibility is to show, or you can claim that you drop the camera because this child was dying and there’s nothing more important than saving a human life.”

EDITORIAL BOARD

Broadway becomes a political stage Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently took Ivanka Trump and United States Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley to Broadway to learn some lessons about how to perform on international political stages.

As Trudeau seems to recognize, musicals represent an ideal form of cultural diplomacy. Live theater brings scenes and social realities to life in ways that other artistic productions cannot.

The musical they attended, titled “Come From Away,” is a Canadian show that features a moment of Canadian hospitality in a time of need. It tells the story of the small community of Gander, Newfoundland, which took in travelers from stranded flights on Sept. 11, 2001.

At the performance, Trudeau took the stage to say a few words beforehand but made no overt political statement because scripted speech simply wasn’t necessary. The musical speaks for itself. Its tale of displacement and international acceptance resonates in a moment of U.S. uncertainty about immigration bans and border walls.

The use of musical theater as a tool of cultural diplomacy is not unprecedented but rather continues a tradition of artistic political strategy. In 2016, for instance, U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Samantha Power took 17 U.N. ambassadors to see the Broadway production “Fun Home.”

“Fun Home” is a stage adaptation of Alison Bechdel’s graphic memoir of the same name. It depicts Bechdel’s comingof-age as a young lesbian artist and writer. As Power stated in an interview with the Guardian, the show brings to life “the challenges that LGBT people face every day around the world.”

The musical represented

a creative and emotionally relatable way to promote the agenda for LGBT rights internationally and allowed ambassadors to witness the implications of public policy in an up-close and personal way.

Yet even if musicals and their political potential have entered the public spotlight in the age of “Hamilton,” musicals also played an international diplomatic role in the mid-20th century.

Theater productions became a means of advancing the State Department’s diplomatic agenda and easing Cold War tensions abroad.

In 1955, George Gershwin’s folk opera “Porgy and Bess” departed for an international tour sponsored by the State Department. The cast, including poet-to-be Maya Angelou, performed in 22 countries as part of an effort to recast the U.S. in a more positive global light.

“Porgy and Bess” has been – and continues to be – a controversial production for its perpetuation of racial stereotypes, but as a musical with an all-black cast, it was also a response to the U.S.’s bad reputation abroad in an age of Jim Crow laws and lynch mobs.

Amid Soviet propaganda critiquing racial inequality in the U.S., the touring show was as much a performance of racial attitudes as it was a show of U.S. artistic production.

Musicals represent a source of behind-thescenes influence in the history of politics and diplomacy, whether in the Cold War or in present-day Canada. The U.S. may not be actively pursuing agendas of cultural diplomacy under the Trump administration, but Trudeau certainly recognizes the power of musical theater in artfully attaining political aims. kmilvert@umail.iu.edu

Robocalling ban should stay A barrage of automated political messages shouldn’t be protected A political organization has filed a case with the United States Supreme Court to overturn the state of Indiana’s ban on the use of robocalls, automated and prerecorded messages sent to thousands of phones at once, for political campaigns.

While it is still unclear whether the Supreme Court will take the case, the group, Patriotic Veterans Inc., claims that the ban violates their First Amendment right to freedom of speech. The Editorial Board believes that these calls should not be legalized.

The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the group in January and claimed “preventing automated messages to persons who don’t want their peace

NO HOT TAKES

and quiet disturbed is a valid time, place, and manner restriction.”

The Editorial Board agrees that robocalls should not be protected by First Amendment rights because it could be considered harassment if a barrage of automated calls assaults citizens’ phones.

If the ban were removed it would allow political movements outside of the mainstream, on both the left and the right, with just a little bit of money to obtain voter lists and call hundreds of voters at a time to spread their message.

This could lead to individual citizens receiving an unreasonable number of political calls, with no way of blocking them because

“do not call” lists often don’t matter to political activists.

The Editorial Board has members who have made political phone calls in the past and believes that making person-to-person contacts during political campaigns is a vital part of democracy. However, that is something that takes more time and resources to reach a large number of people.

Also, Indiana’s robocall ban is content neutral, which courts have generally upheld with more leniency than other bans that apply only to political speech. Corporations cannot use robocalls to advertise their businesses through this mechanism either.

A town ordinance in Arizona that regulated

political speech on yard signs was struck down in the courts as an example of a content-specific statute.

The Indiana law does allow for robocalling if the individual on the robocall list has given consent to a liveperson caller to be placed on that list.

The Editorial Board believes it is reasonable for private citizens to be protected from a constant barrage of phone calls from every political organization, charity and corporation that wishes to market something to us, without first consenting to be placed on the list.

We sincerely believe that this law does not violate the First Amendment and is in the public interest for it to be upheld by our courts.

LUCAS LETS LOOSE

Ivanka Trump is no Humanitarian bombings are not realistic or helpful different from her family This week Ivanka Trump was given the title of assistant to the president. She will serve as an unpaid adviser to her father, maintaining all the benefits she was previously given such as security clearance and participation in diplomacy. But now, she will have to meet federal ethics regulations.

Her position is another example of President Trump’s nepotism and the fraudulence of his administration. But even though many resisters are quick to confirm her inappropriate employment, liberals still hope Ivanka will be a quasisavior and act for the good of the resistance, despite all evidence of her values and previous actions.

Ivanka is not a champion for women or any progressive ideal. Ivanka taps into a misconstrued form of feminism that isn’t interested at all about helping other women. Instead, this faux feminism prizes personal ambition instead of the progress of women’s rights.

She climbs the career ladder only available to a select privileged group and leaves behind other women in need without remorse. Her feminist façade is entirely about empowerment for herself, not lasting empowerment for others through policy.

Just look at her proposed parental leave policy. The family plan that she collaborated on with House and Senate members would only provide maternity care, with no assistance to stayat-home fathers. The new welfare policy would only apply to traditional newborns and exclude children of adopted parents, LGBT parents or other guardians.

Most importantly, almost half of American families wouldn’t qualify for the plan

at all. The plan proposed that single mothers earning less than $250,000 a year or couples making together less than $500,000 would be able to deduct their children’s expenses from their income taxes.

If only claiming income tax were a reality for more Americans. According to an updated report from the Tax Policy Center, 45 percent of American families don’t make enough annually to pay income taxes. It’s hard to determine whether the income tax credit these nonliable families would receive would even help at all.

These are her stances and her choices. Ivanka is out to help one kind of woman: the career woman.

The kind of woman successful enough that she can start her own business ventures but still be an adoring wife to her husband and his more meaningful work. The kind of woman to be praised for her achievements, but only if she is a “mom first.”

Ivanka, Melania and the rest of the women in Trump’s circle are not being held hostage. They are autonomous, complicit individuals who will be siding with the president no matter how radical his wishes are.

“I think that, for me, this isn’t about promoting my viewpoints,” Ivanka said in a CBS interview with Gayle King. “I think my father is going to do a tremendous job, and I want to help him do that.”

Ivanka has a singular value, and it’s devotion to her family. Don’t believe she’s interested in helping yours. jsbourkl@umail.iu.edu

As the entire United States ruling class, now firmly behind President Trump, brings the war in Syria to a point of unthinkable escalation, I propose a toast to the death rattle of common sense and the lessons of recent history.

As millions shared the video of last week’s chemical attack with hysterical pleading for the U.S. military to “do something,” no one appeared to think for a minute that the images would be taken advantage of to manufacture public support for the use of force against the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

Few found it suspicious that the foreign policy of top-ranking Democrats aligned perfectly with that of Trump’s, the president they claim to detest. Hours before Trump lobbed 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles at a Syrian air force base and the surrounding towns, former Sec. of State Hillary Clinton, who has been silent on the rest of Trump’s destructive agenda, managed to slither out into the public light to demand a strike against Assad’s government.

I found it touching that Democrats and Republicans can still put aside their differences to cheer on the bombing of yet another Middle Eastern country. The fact that the purpose of the strike was to protect “beautiful babies,” to use Trump’s words, too was quickly forgotten when ground reports indicated that several civilians, including children, were killed in the strike.

The criticism and apologies that followed the strike were beyond disgusting.

Some complained that Trump should have received Congressional approval or that the bombing was military ineffective.

What about that fact the U.S. reserves itself the right to act unilaterally and breach any international law imaginable, and usually under the laughable pretext of protecting “human rights?”

Former president Barack Obama commenced his destruction of Libya in 2011 with the firing of Tomahawk missiles with the excuse of “human rights.” Throughout the 1990s former president Bill Clinton shot Tomahawk

missiles at Saddam Hussein’s Iraq to protect “human rights,” and only ended up bolstering Hussein’s regime.

Even if the strike was militarily insignificant, it’s triggered new possibilities for escalation in the future because the three human rights champions of Saudi Arabia, Israel and Turkey have applauded Trump’s actions and are demanding further action against Assad.

As for the ridiculous calls for the U.S. to “do something” about Syria, I assume these people are momentarily forgetting the extensive role the U.S. had in creating this war. Leaked State Department documents show that Washington, D.C., has been attempting to overthrow Assad since at least 2006, years before the war even started.

The cables include a detailed analysis of the “vulnerabilities” of the Assad regime, and the tactics the U.S. should employ to delegitimize Assad, which included stoking sectarian tensions, economic interference and the spreading of rumors about “external plotting”

against the government. In 2011 it was reported that the U.S. was spending millions of dollars on Syrian political opposition groups and antigovernment TV channels.

Extensive CIA funding of rebels once the war started turned vast swaths of Syria into an Islamic militant theme park. Militias indistinguishable from ISIS and Al-Qaeda lauded Trump’s bombing and made the U.S. the de-facto air force of such groups.

A lone voice of sanity amidst all of this was Sacha Lorenti, the Bolivian ambassador to the United Nations.

Holding up a photo of Colin Powell’s infamous “Weapons of Mass Destruction” speech, he stated “Do we remember these images? … That invasion caused a million deaths … The U.S. believes that they are investigators, that they are attorneys, judges, and they are the executioners.

That’s not what international law is about.” luwrobin@umail.iu.edu

Police and prosecutors presented a case that agreed with Moore’s statement to police saying he was never inside Sater’s home when she was robbed and killed. He said he was outside in a car.

Moore told police after his arrest he only went to Sater’s house to sell her 40 grams of heroin and did not plan or participate in the burglary, robbery or murder.

However, after testimony from Billie Jean “BJ” Edison, the police believed Moore planned the burglary and robbery that lead to Sater’s death.

Edison faces the same charges as Moore, and she said she participated in

Saturday wore anklets with bells that rattled whenever they stepped to the beat of the drum. Only the singers’ voices and beat of the drums were audible above the jangling of the bells.

Throughout the day, the powwow had a steady flow of student and community members stopping by. For some dances, observers were invited into the arena to join various intertribal and social dances. The powwow was composed of two main dance sections at 1 and 7 p.m. that lasted for hours. During these dance sessions, four different singing groups rotated playing intertribal and exhibition songs. Different host drums played while they danced.

Host drum groups are primarily responsible for providing music for native dancing The host northern drum Tha Tribe came from Lawrence, Kansas, while the host southern drum Yung Bux traveled from Lawton, Oklahoma. Ho-Chunk station, the invited northern drum, was from Lyndon Station, Wisconsin, and Iron Bear, the invited the robbery under Moore’s direction. She said she believes she will get a plea deal for testifying against Moore.

Dennis Webb also faces the same three charges as Moore and Edison, and Edison told police Webb was the one who shot Sater.

Sater told police before she died of an AK-47 shot to the stomach that the man with Edison at her house had shot her.

Edison and Webb will both face trial unless either receives a plea deal.

Five members of Sater’s family attended the reading of the verdict and expressed gratitude for the convictions.

“I was just so happy they found him guilty of all three,” Hawkins said. “It gives me hope for the other two.”

Sater was Hawkins’ second child who died young and unexpectedly. Odessa Hoggat, another of her three daughters, was killed in a car accident in 2005 at

southern drum, came from Eau Claire, Michigan.

Belle said the songs that were played determined the dance steps and covered a variety of topics. He said a lot of the songs were about historical events or in honor of someone. Intertribal dances could include every dancer, while exhibition dances focused on specific styles of dance, like hoop dancing or smoke dancing in particular.

Between the two dance sessions, Paso a Paso and the Indiana School of Polynesian Arts performed routines to draw on the connections between other indigenous cultures, Belle said.

“I want to help highlight those additional connections,” he said.

This was the first year the event has taken place outside.

Last year at the same time it was snowing, Belle said. Vendors’ tents on the outer ring of the circle provided dancers and observers the ability to cool off. Shirts, jewelry, DVDs, CDs, food and other accessories were available to purchase, though the event was

Hawkins said that Sater was a loving, outgoing person, who dreamed of getting sober and having a steady job.

When she was sober for a 9-month period recently, Hawkins said that her daughter called her often to ask if she needed anything and once gave her $700 without provocation to pay off a month of her mother’s rent.

“She’s missed everyday,” Hawkins said. “I go to work.

I go to the graveyard. I go home. That’s all I do.”

As Sater’s family cried, Moore walked toward the door.

Before exiting, he tossed his tissue in the trash, and after a moment of hesitation, chucked his notepad, too.

free to everyone.

Belle said many people learn about Native American culture in a historical sense.

Most people know what tribes did but few know what these tribes do today.

“The general public frequently doesn’t know that native people still exist, that this is a vibrant, active culture, that there are vibrant, active cultures,” Belle said. “These tribal groups are still around. This culture is still practiced.”

Keisha Lipscomb, a junior studying elementary education who was part of the powwow committee, said many native students grew up with powwows. She said this event was more for academic and cultural outreach, but powwows are typically a time of refreshing energy and being around good people.

Lipscomb said she believed the powwow showed how IU was making the commitment to increase diversity on campus.

“We’re still around here, and we’re just like every perFUAD PONJEVIC | IDS son,” Lipscomb said. “We’re A woman at the First Nations Traditional Powwow poses at her booth Saturday afternoon in Dunn Meadow. not people of the past.”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Flint struggled in his final three seasons as the UMass head coach, however, and finished with a record above .500 just once while failing to make the NCAA Tournament.

He resigned and took over as head coach at Drexel but won just one conference championship in 15 years and never made the NCAA Tournament. His career head coaching record is 331-289.

Schilling brings strong Indiana ties to the staff.

He was the head coach at Park Tudor School in Indianapolis from 2009 to 2012. He was 87-18 in four years and won two IHSAA Class 2A state titles before joining Steve Alford’s staff at UCLA. Schilling was also the high school head coach of former IU guard Yogi Ferrell.

He was also a

member of the Massachusetts coaching staff with Flint in the 1995-96 season when the Minutemen reached the Final Four and followed Calipari to the NBA for one year.

Schilling spent six years as head coach of Wright State before joining Calipari again, this time at Memphis in 2003.

Schilling spent two seasons with Calipari with the Tigers while compiling a 44-24 record. In 2007, Schilling trained and coached the Adidas High School All-American team.

He also spent the summer months preparing players such as Greg Oden, Mike Conley, Mario Chalmers and Gordon Hayward prior to the NBA draft before taking the head-coaching role at Park Tudor.

An IU spokesperson said the program hopes to have the coaching staff finalized sometime this week.

Every answer to the questions ended in either laughter or applause, including from Burr. As the discussion continued, Spencer discussed how every role she has played had taught her something different about both herself and the world around her.

Playing the role of Jackson in “The Help” allowed her to have an altered view of life. She said she was always taught to look at life as if it were a glass half empty or half full.

“For Minny, it wasn’t looking at if the glass was half empty or half full,” Spencer said. “If you are a woman that doesn’t have agency, it’s whether if you have a glass.”

WOMEN’S GOLF W

MASTERS W Women’s golf team dominates in first match o on home course since the 2012-13 season

By Ryan Lucas lucasry@indiana.edu | @RyanLucasIU luc

JOSH EASTERN | IDS

Senior Ana Sanjuan tees off during the first round of the IU Invitational at IU Golf Course. The Hoosiers won the tournament on their home course.

Fans of the women’s golf team only had one chance to see the team play at home this season, and the Hoosiers made sure not to disappoint.

The Hoosiers dominated the t IU Invitational, and won the tournament with a team score of t 884 (+20) at the IU Golf Course on Sunday.

IU finished 15 strokes ahead of o second-place finisher Toledo ffor the team’s first tournament vvictory of the season.

IU Coach Clint Wallman said the tournament went well, not only on because the team finished first rs in the standings but also because of the team’s mindset bec throughout the weekend. thro “To “ me it was much more about the process and the way they went about abo their business,” Wallman said.

“The golf course played really tough with the green speeds and especially the wind so it looked to me like they w had a much different focus in terms of how ho they played and how they played playe the golf course, and they did just a really good job.”

Junior Alix Kong won her first Jun tournament as a Hoosier with a threetourn round roun score of 214 (-2). Kong shot the best individual round of the tournament men with a 70 (-2) in the first round.

Kong said it felt great to win K the tournament in Bloomington with the support of her teammates.

She also said she feels good about her game heading into the final tournament of the season before the Big Ten. “I think it’s really important for me to

just try my best to finish strong,” Kong said.

“I was really patient out there, and I kept myself really happy, so I think that played a key role, and I’m just going to take that into the next two tournaments and just enjoy the time with my team.”

Kong was one of four Hoosiers to finish in the top 10, and all five IU golfers finished in the top 20.

Sophomore Erin Harper finished fourth with a 5-over-par 221, including a 72 (E) in the second round.

Senior Theresa-Ann Jedra and freshman Emma Fisher joined Harper in the top ten and finished tied for eighth place with a three-round score of 225 (+9).

Senior Ana Sanjuan finished tied for 17th with a score of 229 (+13) to round out the team for the Hoosiers.

Wallman said Fisher is a big-time athlete and also said he has enjoyed watching her improve and mature as the season has progressed.

“She’s making better decisions, she’s hitting better quality shots and she’s blossoming into a really good player,” Wallman said.

“I think she has a great future ahead of her.

That’s a strong, strong contribution from a freshman.”

Wallman said the team did a good job avoiding compounding errors and also had a lot of birdies to balance out its mistakes.

He also said the team was very targetfocused and that focus was important on the course this weekend.

“I think that showed up in the final score,” Wallman said. “I think that was probably the main thing we did better than the rest of the field was just playing to good targets and when we had good opportunities, taking advantage of them.”

The Hoosiers will look to carry the momentum from their win into their next tournament, at the Lady Buckeye Invitational on Saturday and Sunday in Columbus, Ohio.

FOOTBALL

Tom Allen gives update ahead of IU spring game

By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu @TaylorRLehman

Just days before IU takes the field in front of a crowd for the first time since losing the Foster Farms Bowl against Utah in December, IU Coach Tom Allen addressed the media regarding the state of his program as spring camp nears its end.

Spring game format Allen said he learned the process of choosing players for the Cream and Crimson teams when he was the defensive coordinator under former South Florida head coach Willie Taggart.

IU started by naming the two head coaches for the spring game — offensive coordinator Mike DeBord for the Cream Team and defensive line coach Mark Hagen for the Crimson Team. The entire IU Athletic Department is split up between the two coaches so that they each have full staffs, Allen said.

DeBord and Hagen had four days to pick two free agents each, one on offense and one on defense, from the IU football team. From there, a draft was held Sunday to select more players for each team.

Allen said Saturday he would be the commissioner and run the draft. Whoever is not drafted after four rounds is considered an undrafted free agent, and

“It’s a way for us to have a lot of fun with it. We will have two full teams. It should be a whole lot of fun to see our guys compete and try to win.

Tom Allen, IU Coach, on the format of the 2017 spring game

the drafted teams make phone calls to specific free agents they would like to acquire. The free agents will need to respond via text message to prove they are signing with the Cream or Crimson teams.

The winning team gets a steak dinner, while the losing team gets hot dogs and has to serve the winning team its steaks, Allen said.

“It’s a way for us to have a lot of fun with it,” Allen said. “We will have two full teams. It should be a whole lot of fun to see our guys compete and try to win.”

There will be no kickoffs, but there will be punts and PAT attempts, and each team’s kicker will have the opportunity to kick field goals to earn points for their teams.

Haydon Whitehead When asked which newcomers have impressed him the most, Allen mentioned redshirt sophomore punter Haydon Whitehead first.

The Australian transferred to IU after spending

time at Swinburne University of Technology and participating in the ProKick Australia program that assists college punters in Australia to get into American colleges.

Junior punter Joseph Gedeon struggled in the 2016 season. He finished 86th in the nation in yards per punt with 40.4.

Allen, who stressed the need to get better on special teams earlier in the offseason, said Whitehead is adjusting well to American football.

Special teams coaching When former running

backs coach Deland McCullough left Bloomington for USC in February, he didn’t just leave the running backs coaching position vacant. He also left the special teams coordinator position open.

Allen said he doesn’t expect to fill the position but rather split the responsibilities between coaches already on the roster. He said Jeff McInerney, father of IU quality control assistant Ryan McInerney and former head coach at Central Connecticut State, has been advising the coaching staff off the field while the coaches do the special

teams coaching on the field.

Allen said he met Jeff McInerney through studying special teams at a camp the New Orleans Saints were host to and that McInerney offers “a vast amount” of knowledge to the coaching staff.

In 2016, IU placed 94th in the nation in average kickoff return yardage, 110th in average yards per punt and 112th in field goal percentage.

“It’s shown up already in our spring drill work,” Allen said about improvements in special teams. “I’m excited about that.”

WOMEN’S TENNIS

IU suffers losses in final two home matches of the season

By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1

The Hoosiers have played 13 of their 18 home matches indoors this season, but the weather this weekend was nice enough to allow IU women’s tennis to play its fourth and fifth outdoor matches of the year against Illinois and Northwestern this past

weekend.

The Fighting Illini came into the matchup with a 9-10 overall record and a 3-2 conference record.

Senior Kim Schmider and sophomore Madison Appel, the nationallyranked No. 60 doubles pair won their match.

But IU’s Nos. 2 and 3 doubles teams lost, and Illinois was able to gain a

1-0 advantage in the match.

From there the Illini dominated and cruised to a 6-1 victory against the Hoosiers.

Appel was the only player to win her singles match at the No. 1 position, 6-1, 7-5.

IU then got a day off before playing its final home match of the season Sunday against the

5

Northwestern Wildcats.

Like Illinois, Northwestern was able to get the doubles point.

Four out of the six singles matches went into a third set, but unfortunately for the Hoosiers, the Wildcats capitalized on their opportunities to gain a 7-0 victory.

Narrow losses at positions 1, 2, 5 and 6 handed

the Hoosiers the defeat.

“It’s a handful of points here and there that are costing us these matches,” IU Coach Ramiro Azcui said. “I think we need to stay more mentally tough.

When things get a little tough we tend to not execute the way we need to.”

IU earns victory Sunday but loses series

By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu @TaylorRLehman

After struggling to find much offense throughout the three-game weekend series against Purdue in West Lafayette, Indiana, IU had already lost the series going into Sunday afternoon’s series finale.

The finale, however, was the most complete game the Hoosiers were able to put together during the weekend.

IU collected 13 hits and held the Boilermakers to nine hits of their own to win 14-9.

In his second start of the season, sophomore pitcher Pauly Milto pitched seven strong innings before surrendering four runs in the eighth and exiting. In his first seven innings, Milto gave up one run on three hits and no walks.

The sophomore’s eighth inning, in which he surrendered four runs on four hits, is what pushed his game totals to seven total hits and five earned runs through 7.1 innings.

Backing up good starting pitching has been a recent struggle for the Hoosiers, but by the sixth inning, IU had already scored as many runs in Sunday’s game as the Hoosiers had in games one and two. When Milto exited, IU had a 13-5 lead.

Sophomore Matt Lloyd hit his seventh home run of the season in the first inning to get an early lead on Purdue.

Purdue sophomore infielder Jacson McGowan hit a home run to tie, and the score remained tied at 1-1 until the IU bats exploded for seven runs in the fifth inning.

Senior outfielder Alex Krupa singled to score a run and take the lead. Then sophomore infielder Luke Miller hit a 3-run home run — his second consecutive game with a home run — and senior outfielder Craig Dedelow responded with a 3-run home run of his own.

Dedelow’s eighth home run of the season pushed IU’s lead to 8-1.

After the fifth inning, junior outfielder Logan Sowers hit an RBI single and an RBI double, Lloyd walked to bring in a run, Dedelow hit a sacrifice fly, and senior catcher Ryan Fineman knocked his second home run of the season for two RBI. There wasn’t a player or two for the Hoosiers that led the way in the offensive onslaught; rather, the team as a whole contributed.

Dedelow racked up the most RBIs with four, Krupa had the most runs scored with three, and Lloyd and Krupa combined for four of IU’s nine walks.

It was the best way for the Hoosiers to finish what was otherwise a lackluster series against the Boilermakers.

A four-run rally in the eighth inning of game one got the win for Purdue, and the six runs scored in the third and fourth innings made the difference in Purdue’s victory in the second game of the series.

At one point in the series, IU saw its starting pitchers, bullpen and bats struggle to produce, but the series finale finished the series on a high note for the Hoosiers, whose record now stands at 16-13-2 overall and 4-4-1 in Big Ten play.

IU will travel to Terre Haute, Indiana, to take on Indiana State on Tuesday at 6 p.m.

The Sycamores defeated the Hoosiers in their first mid-week matchup this season, 7-3.

SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE SONG FESTIVAL Left The Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center was host to the seventh annual Spanish and Portuguese Song Festival on Friday evening. Special guests Steven Wagschal on the violin and Alain Barker on piano perform during the competition for the students. Wagschal is a professor in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese, and Barker teaches in the Jacobs School of Music.

Right IU sophomore Lynette Krick and junior Peter Pendowski perform for the seventh annual Spanish and Portuguese Song Festival on Friday evening. During the competition, the two performed “Andar Conmigo” by Julieta Venegas and a Spanish rendition of “Falling in Love” by Elvis Presley.

Musical Beginnings presents Sunday afternoon show Moore, who have been playing together under the name Salaam since 1996, shared musical selections from across seven Middle Eastern countries. The band itself travels with rotating membership around the country and the world performing some original and Middle Eastern traditional songs.

“This is our education show, which is really geared toward students and families,” El Saffar said. “It’s really informational about the Middle East because one of the things for me, growing up in the United States, I always felt a huge misunderstanding of the Middle East, and it continues.

Children, families and members of the community gathered at the Monroe County Public Library on Sunday afternoon to hear the music of Salaam and learn more about the art and culture of the Middle East.

The event was arranged by the Jacobs School of Music’s Musical Beginnings program and in conjunction with BloomingSongs, a collaborative recording project between local musicians and composers launching May 6 with the goal of enriching musical education with a global lean.

El Saffar said she was interested in exploring that musical style further and share the attractiveness of the culture in contrast to some of the violent imagery shared in the media.

El Saffar graduated from Jacobs School of Music and has been playing the violin since age six. She also plays two other string instruments, the oud and joza.

During each portion of the program, El Saffar and Moore took turns talking to attendees, who ranged in age from around a year old to high school and up through adult members of the community, about each of the seven Middle Eastern countries in focus, starting with Morocco.

From there the musicians moved through Egypt, Israel and Palestine, Syria, Iraq, Iran and Turkey. Each mini lesson was followed by Salaam playing a musical selection from that area of the world. During

discussion of Syria, El Saffar paused to give a disclaimer about their chosen imagery for the country.

“All the photos we’ll be showing come from times of peace,” El Saffar said. “We hope peace will resume in Syria soon.”

Immersing himself in this new style of music gave Moore a greater understanding of the region, he said.

“It was like a real discovery of unearthing a whole treasure, a whole genre of music I’d never really heard before,” Moore said. “Such a rich tradition of music that goes back so many hundreds of years has been such a pleasure to discover and to try and learn. It’s been a real journey for me.”

SOFTBALL

Softball drops three games at Minnesota

By Cameron Drummond cpdrummo@iu.edu | @cdrummond97

Issues in the circle plagued IU softball this weekend on the road against No. 7 Minnesota.

The Golden Gophers blasted two grand slams and five home runs overall in a three-game sweep of the Hoosiers.

IU, 17-21 overall and 3-6 in the Big Ten, was outscored 29-8 during the weekend series.

“We just didn’t have a good weekend in the circle,” IU Coach Michelle Gardner said. “Every once in a while that will happen.”

Sophomore pitchers Emily Kirk and Tara Trainer, IU’s two starting pitchers in the series, walked 14 batters and allowed 24 of the 28 runs scored by Minnesota, which is now 35-3 overall and 8-1 in conference.

Conversely, all three of Minnesota’s starting pitchers threw complete-game victories. Twice, it was senior pitcher and two-time All-American Sara Groenewegen who flummoxed IU. Groenewegen, who pitches internationally for Canada, struck out seven IU batters in seven innings during Friday night’s 11-6 Minnesota victory. In the first game of a Saturday doubleheader, Groenewegen pitched only five innings in a shortened 10-2 win for the Golden Gophers by mercy rule.

“Sara is one of the best in the country and internationally,” IU senior infielder CaraMia Tsirigos said. “She does a really good job of moving pitches in the zone

and getting you to bite on changeups.”

Tsirigos was the lone Hoosier to have consistent success at the plate this weekend.

Tsirigos recorded a hit in every game of the series and was responsible for four of the eight IU RBI against Minnesota. She launched two home runs off Groenewegen Friday night, which included a three-run homer to give IU a 3-0 lead in the third. It was the only point of the series in which

IU held a lead.

“I saw the ball well,” Tsirigos said. “She’s one heck of a pitcher, so I tried really hard to hone in on her pitches.”

The offensive performance from Tsirigos was the outlier among IU batters during the weekend.

This sparked a change in the batting order from Gardner for Saturday’s doubleheader.

Freshman utility player Gabbi Jenkins, who had assumed the leadoff spot

from junior outfielder Rebecca Blitz on March 3, was switched from hitting leadoff to hitting ninth. This allowed Blitz to move back into the leadoff spot, while freshman utility player Katie Lacefield was moved to the second spot.

The move still allows Jenkins to hit in front of Blitz, which Gardner looked to preserve.

“Gabbi needs to get into the comfort zone again,” Gardner said. “Friday night I didn’t think she was seeing

the ball well, so I switched it up.”

The move brought an immediate payoff at the top of IU’s batting order. IU’s first four hitters — Blitz, Lacefield, junior infielder Taylor Uden and Tsirigos — all recorded hits in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader.

IU got just two hits in Saturday’s second game, an 8-0 win in five innings by Minnesota.

With the sweep, IU has now lost five consecutive games and seven of its last

eight.

Badly needing to correct this slide, IU will have a midweek opportunity to bounce back against a struggling rival.

IU will be host to Purdue for a Tuesday doubleheader, with the Boilermakers currently on a five-game losing streak after being swept this weekend at Illinois.

“It’s a great opportunity for some good, quality wins,” Gardner said. “I think all of us want to forget about Minnesota.”

weekend, the Hoosiers were ninth in the Big Ten standings.

Only the top 10 teams in the conference make the Big Ten Tournament.

Three of IU’s four

remaining matches are against teams — Wisconsin, Minnesota and Penn State — that are currently slotted below the Hoosiers in the standings.

The Hoosiers are now

11-11 on the season, and their conference record dropped to 2-4.

In order to secure a spot in the tournament Azcui said his team needs to focus on just one match at a time.

“If we don’t take care of the next match ahead of us I think we can get into trouble,” Azcui said. “We know how important every match is and we are going to treat it as is.”

The next match up for the Hoosiers will be against the 4-12 Wisconsin Badgers, who are 0-7 in the conference. The match will be played at the Badgers’ facility in Madison, Wisconsin.
