Verizon Wireless, AT&T and IU are among those recently subpoenaed by attorneys for the parents of missing student Lauren Spierer.

The Jets, a group of Polish-Americans, appear onstage first and begin to dance. In the middle of the dance, a member of the Sharks, a group of immigrants from Puerto Rico, enters. The Jets stop and rebuff the Sharks member. A dance battle ensues, highlighting the rivalry between the two gangs on New York City’s west side. The musical “West Side Story” made its first-ever appearance in the IU Auditorium Tuesday. Another performance will take place at 8 p.m. today. The show is famous for its choreography. Another dance battle between the groups occurs later at a dance in a neighborhood gym. During this dance, Tony, a member of the Jets, and Maria, a young Puerto Rican immigrant, meet and fall in love. They sneak away to Maria’s balcony and express their love with the well-known song “Tonight,” while Bernardo, leader of the Sharks, listening right inside the balcony door. Freshman Kaitlyn Hockerman said Tuesday was the first time she had seen the musical live. “This has always been one of my favorite movies,” she said, “so I just decided to take advantage of the

All campus bus routes will get a makeover by the time students return to campus in August. The Student Transportation Board presented five major concept changes during a public meeting Monday, IU Campus Bus Service operations manager Perry Maull said. Four were approved unanimously by the STB. All buses are adding stops to their routes. The X Bus will add stops at Woodlawn Avenue and Seventh Street; the B route will add stops at the Maurer School of Law and Jordan Hall; and the A route will return to an earlier route system, for which bus stops will be restored at the Sample Gates, the Indiana Memorial Union, Collins Living-Learning Center, Woodlawn Field and the Kelley School of Business, in that order.
