Ph.D. student Mark Houlemarde leads an activity about sexual assault with an IU fraternity April 12 in the Indiana Memorial Union. Houlemarde is the only man on campus whose position at IU is solely dedicated to preventing rape by talking to men.

Before it’s too late Instead of teaching students to avoid rape, he’s teaching men to not commit it. BY JESSICA CONTRERA | mjcontre@indiana.edu | @mjcontrera

T

he Don’t Rape Guy wanted them to understand. But first, he had to convince them to care. He looked up into another crowd of fraternity brothers. Most were required to be there. Some were members of a fraternity being punished. This time, they piled into an auditorium in Woodburn Hall. But wherever he met them — in their meeting rooms and lecture halls and basements of their pillared houses — they always asked the same question. He saw it appear on the screen behind his head. “how many sexual assaults were there last year? PLEASE ANSWER THIS” it read. The questions were texted in anonymously, so the guys would feel comfortable asking what they wanted. What they really wanted, the Don’t Rape Guy thought, was a reason to dismiss the issue. “I have the stats,” he said. “I know some of them. But I don’t think that we should have a certain number, or meet a certain threshold for this to be important. Right?” His brow furrowed and his voice grew louder. Everyone SEE RAPE, PAGE 5

What you can do to stop sexual assault Little 500 week is notorious as a time when assaults are more likely to occur. Here, Mark Houlemarde of Sexual Assault Crisis Services discusses what both men and women can do to stop rape from happening. Get consent In an intimate relationship, the absence of a “no” does not mean “yes.” Good communication is a necessity. Do not rely on body language. Be aware of alcohol’s role Alcohol is the most commonly used date rape drug. Using alcohol to coerce a partner to have intimate relations in unacceptable. Keep in mind that alcohol impairs judgment and can make getting clear consent impossible. Be an active bystander If something doesn’t seem right, find a way to confront your peers and intervene in a safe way. Don’t be afraid to call the police and never assume that someone has already alerted the authorities.

Hoosiers continue streak, blast Cardinals BY ANDREW VAILLIENCOURT availlie@indiana.edu @AndrewVCourt

It was a 1-1 game heading into the bottom of the sixth inning Wednesday when Ball State traveled to Bloomington to play IU. By the end of the sixth, junior catcher Brad Hartong had five RBIs, and IU held a 10-1 lead. It was more than enough to seal the 10-1 win as IU improved to 26-11. “I got a lot of good hitters in front of me and behind me,” Hartong said. “Guys were getting on and when I came up I didn’t try to do too much and just hit the ball and it worked out.” Hartong drilled a 3-run home

run to left field, and after the Hoosiers batted around, came up and drove in two more on a single in the big sixth inning. “I don’t want to count on innings like that a lot,” IU Coach Tracy Smith said. “For the most part, I was not pleased with our at-bats all night. I thought we gave a lot of them away.” IU had just two hits before the sixth, both coming off the bat of junior infielder Chad Clark. Sophomore Sullivan Stadler started on the mound for IU and pitched five innings, giving up one run on three hits with six strikeouts and just one walk. BEN MIKESELL | IDS

Wheel of Fortune contestant shares his side of the story

IU’s defense waits to go back out to the field during its game against Ball State on Wednesday at Bart Kaufman Field. IU won, 10-1.

Seated in a dark classroom inside the Student Building, Julian Batts watched himself amplified on a giant projection screen. He watched himself spin the wheel and shout “L!” to Pat Sajak. And he watched Vanna White walk over and tap the four blue “L” screens. To his right, Batts’ friend Sara Zaheer turned to him, “Is it Achilles?” “Just wait,” he said. More than half a million YouTube views later, freshman Batts earned the label “worst Wheel of Fortune contestant ever” on the Internet last week after three flubs on the show’s “College Week.” With $11,700 in winnings, the Hudson and Holland Scholar, Herbert Presidential Scholar and Hutton Honors College member beat out students from the University of Alabama and Texas A&M University. But it was his three mistakes — mispronouncing Achilles and missing the completion of two other nearly-finished puzzles — that earned him a title he wasn’t anticipating when he arrived in the Culver City, Calif. studio at 7:15 that morning. Now, he takes special care to ennunciate “Achilles” very clearly — “uh-keel-eez.” “If I could describe that episode in one word it would be ‘crazy,’” Batts said. It’s hard to say when Batts’ journey to the big wheel began. It might have been when he submitted his online application soon after starting at IU. Or it might have been when he and his mom drove through an ice storm to Terre Haute for his audition in December. Or, maybe it was when he watched his first episode at age 10 or 11. He remembers the colors and lights of the show grabbing his attention. But his longtime love for what he simply calls “Wheel” culminated when he taped the show’s 6000th episode on Valentine’s Day this year. A self-proclaimed game SEE BATTS, PAGE 6

Back home for a day Festival a chance for reminiscing, learning about India BY SUZANNE GROSSMAN spgrossm@indiana.edu @suzannepaige6

For the past two years Nikitha Linga has missed celebrating Holi, one of her favorite festivals, because she’s been miles from home. Linga remembers celebrating Holi back home in India with dancing, color fights and bong, a drink that gets you high, she said The Asian Culture Center staged its own Holi festival Wednesday at Collins LivingLearning Center to give students like Linga the chance to connect back home. Linga said festivals are a part of life in India. It’s a way for family and friends to connect to each other and the culture. “And since we are in the U.S. and don’t have family here, we get to have fun we’d be missing right now and connect back to home,” Linga said. Holi is a Hindu holiday in India that celebrates the coming of spring, ACC Student Coordinator and Holi organizer Vivian Chen said. This year’s Holi festival was originally scheduled April 4 but was rescheduled because of bad weather.

“It would have been nice if the weather let us do it when planned,” Chen said. “We’ve been worried about attendance because it’s in the middle of Little 5.” Chen’s fears were confirmed when only about 200 students showed up. In previous years the event attracted 350 to 400 students, she said. Shesaid she’s still hopeful for the years to come, even though this year’s festival was less attended. “Everyone should come and have fun,” Chen said. “Even if they didn’t come this year they should definitely come next year.” But the event had more to offer to students this year with tissue paper flower crafts, henna workshops, dance demos, food catered from Taste of India and, as always, the color war. “It’s really a lot of fun,” ACC student staff member Laura Baumann said. “We really just want to get a lot of people here and get a lot of color on them.” Other than to just host a fun event, the ACC also hopes to bring multicultural awareness to campus, Chen said. “A lot of Indiana people know there is Indian and Asian culture,

but they don’t know much about it,” Chen said. “Definitely part of it is for us to have fun, but also to get the word out there to show the many facets of the different cultures all around campus.” Chen said she thinks it’s important for people to be aware of how America sometimes adapts foreign cultures to form their own. “Everyone knows the color run, but no one knows about Holi,” Chen said. “But that’s where the color run came form. I mean, we get colored powder from India, and it’s nice to show where it originated from.” Holi is one of the bigger events the ACC plans each year, student staff member Vivian Ge said. “Not only is it a lot of fun, but it allows everyone to participate whether you’re students or not and whether you’re Indian or not,” Ge said. Though the festival is smaller this year and smaller than back in India, Linga said it’s better than nothing. It helps her feel less far from home. “It’s important because I get to meet people, and I miss home a lot,” Linga said. “This helps me feel like I’m not so far away from my culture.”

Winners of the IUBloomington Energy Challenge were announced this week, ending the monthlong competition. There were 19 residence halls and apartment housing complexes; 15 lab, classroom or administrative buildings; and 10 greek houses that participated in the challenge. It was one of the largest energy challenges in the nation, according to the release. A winner was announced from each category. Out of the academic buildings, Bryan Hall won for the administrative buildings, the Jacobs East Studio won out of the classrooms and Myers Hall won out of the laboratories. Briscoe Quad, Evermann Apartments, Teter Quad and Rose Avenue won out of the residence halls and apartment housing. Theta Chi won the competition for the greek houses, winning $450 that was compiled through house contributions. Delta Delta Delta, who won the greek banner competition, won a prize of $50. Each building participated to decrease the largest percentage of water and electricity usage in comparison to the amount they usually use. The IU-Bloomington Utilities Information Group read the meters, and standings were updated twice a week. The 44 buildings saved 2,295,000 gallons of water, enough to fill 133,023 bathtubs, and saved 38,400 kilowatt hours of electricity based on their normal water and electricity usage, according to the release.

“The Energy Challenge is a great way for our University to step up and instill in both our students and our colleagues the importance of energy conservation,” said Kyle Newnum, assistant residence manager of Teter Residence Hall, in the release. “Year after year we have been able to teach the importance of using our resources appropriately and not being so wasteful on our campus. Keeping the funds we would have used for power and water here at the institution can hopefully impact other areas to make our campus a more comfortable and beautiful place to study and work.” Since its creation in 2008, the Energy Challenge has saved 5.3 million kilowatt hours of electricity and almost 13 million gallons of water to date, according to the release. This is equivalent to taking 5,300 homes offline during the competition, and the water saved could fill almost 13 Olympic swimming pools. This reduction in energy and water consumption has saved more than $2 million in utility costs and has avoided emitting more than 20,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide, according to the release. “It was great to witness the excitement generated by this spring’s Energy Challenge,” sustainability intern Jessica Stavole said in the release. “From the Greek banner competition to the new IU Energy Matters Mobile App, the efforts made to raise awareness showed that focusing on small behavior changes truly do make a difference.”

Hypnotist headlines first Spring Union Fair BY GRACE PALMIERI gpalmier@indiana.edu @grace_palmieri

Eleven IU students sat in chairs on the Whittenberger Auditorium stage with their heads bowed. They were hypnotized. “Try to get a really good mental image of what you look like after the last eight or nine years at the gym,” hypnotist Tom DeLuca said. “Now hold on to that. Yes, that’s you. You look that good. It’s not just your friends and family who’ve noticed. The whole world has noticed how good you look.” The students listen to minutes of reaffirmation about their perfect looking bodies before being asked to show off those muscles. DeLuca counted to three. “Three, up and pose,” he said. “You are looking good. Hold that pose.” Students performed any task DeLuca directed them to while they were hypnotized Wednesday night during the Spring Union Fair, presented by Union Board.

DeLuca had one man singing about apples, another acting as an Indiana cheerleader and one woman was taught to believe the number six didn’t exist. Mara Jacobucci, who had been hypnotized once before, said she felt relaxed and reenergized after the hypnotization. “I mean, hypnotism, I think, is an interesting word because I think it’s almost like meditation more,” she said. “For example, if you do a yoga class and the teacher is telling you to do things and you just do it — it’s kind of like that feeling more for me.” The event was part of Union Board’s first Spring Union Fair. While DeLuca highlighted the festivities, there was also the Gallery Evening Music Series as well as a caricature artist and silicone wristbands to be engraved. The purpose of Union Fair is to provide an alternative to alcohol during Little 500 week, Union Board Director of IU Traditions Jason Gross said.

DeLuca used to perform hypnotism at IU during Welcome Week every year. Because that always drew such a large crowd, Union Board decided he would be perfect for their new event, Gross said. Among other tasks, Jacobucci was told she was the captain of the “fun police.” Upon command by DeLuca, without realizing it, Jacobucci began yelling at anyone in the crowd who laughed. She said it doesn’t take long for all the focus to turn to DeLuca and forget about the audience. All of a sudden you’re in a different world, she said. “I remember all the actions that people were doing, but I was confused a lot of times why people were doing the things they were doing,” Jacobucci said. With the support they had from students at the event this year, Gross said Union Board will continue the Spring Union Fair in the future.

College announces new Themester, unveils new bus BY KATHRINE SCHULZE schulzek@indiana.edu @Kathrine_Schulze

It’s going to be a delicious semester next fall with the new Themester “Eat, Drink, Think: Food from Art to Science.” The College of Arts and Sciences announced the new theme Wednesday with the unveiling of the 2014 Themester bus. Tracy Bee is the director of academic initiatives for the College and organized the Themester. “Each year, the College chooses a theme that connects the undergraduate classroom experience to issues of great and lifelong importance,” Bee said. The theme will include

special courses focused on food from multiple areas of study and a series of events that will go along with the theme, said John Lucaites, associate dean of the College. “Food and the role that food plays — social, cultural, political, economic context — is an important and interesting consideration for many people,” Lucaites said. Larry Singell, the dean of the College, attended the unveiling Wednesday. “Food is one of the great universal unifiers across the whole world, and it’s an important part of our culture,” Singell said. “Sharing a meal has actually been, over time, one of the great human events.” Humans identify with food

in incredible ways, whether it’s ethnically or otherwise, Lucaites said. Though the events list isn’t finalized yet, it will include movies at the IU Cinema, IU Art Museum and Lilly Library exhibits and a lecture series about obesity, Bee said. “We’re partnering with the Office of Sustainability for the first time since 2010, when we focused on the theme of sustainability,” Bee said. “Each year, the Office of Sustainability puts on a food festival, ‘Big Red Eats Green,’ and Themester is proud to be a part of this event this year.” The Themester will also include a panel discussion about the modern meat industry and a food-themed performance by the University

Late professor donates $4.2 million to IU biology BY DANI CASTONZO dcastonz@indiana.edu @Dani_Castonzo

The legacy of one of IU Department of Biology’s most important characters will continue through funding the study of plant life at IU. Late professor of biology Carlos Miller bequeathed almost $4.2 million to the IU Department of Biology, the largest donation ever made to the department. This money will be used to provide scholarships for graduate students pursuing a degree in plant biology. “We’ll be able to recruit more students that are interested in plant biology — and probably more talented students — because we will be able to offer scholarship support,” former colleague and professor of biology Roger Innes said. Miller worked at IU from 1957 to 1987. Even after his retirement, professor and Chair of Biology Clay Fuqua said he saw Miller in the greenhouse and lab every day working on experiments and interacting with students. Fuqua said Miller was known in the biology department for being incredibly generous with his money. He never married, so he donated a large amount of money to the biology department while he was a faculty member as well. After this most recent donation, Miller’s gifts to the faculty chair and the student fellowship now total more than $5.4 million, according to a press release. But his gifts weren’t just monetary. In 1999, Miller endowed and established the Carlos O. Miller Chair in Plant Growth and Development, and in 2007, he endowed and established the Carlos O. Miller Graduate Fellowship in Plant Developmental Biology. Miller is best known in the science community for discovering a new hormone named cytokinin, which has

tWits. The College is also working with Union Board to bring in a speaker, Bee said. Most of the Themester events will be free and open to the public. “Aside from attending events or signing up for Themester courses, undergraduate students are involved in Themester in a number of ways,” Bee said. Students were part of the planning committee. There are 10 Themester interns, and students are training to give the themed tours of the IU Art Museum, she said. Themester began in 2009 with the theme, “Evolution, Diversity and Change,” Bee said. Sustainability, war and peace and networks have also

been past topics. “Every year is different,” Bee said. “The topic drives our partnerships and the events.” This year, however, two minors, including the food anthropology minor, directly relate to the theme. “If you look at the list of Themester courses, you’ll see anthropology is very well-represented, and some of these classes will fulfill minor requirements,” Bee said. Peter Todd is a professor in the College. He is teaching a Hutton Honors College course for the Themester called “Food For Thought: The Cognitive Science of Eating.” Todd said his course will look at the way food is connected to memory, decisionmaking, language and even

philosophy. “That’s a lot of what evolution shaped our minds to do,” Todd said. “To solve problems around finding food, figuring out what is good to eat, figure out what things to avoid, to not eat.” Several other departments are offering classes in the theme’s area, including economics, apparel merchandising and geography. The classes vary in topics from the “Geography of Food” to “Economics of Obesity.” “Food not only is a theme that can be examined and discussed in virtually every academic discipline, but it obviously touches everyone,” Bee said. “Whether you enjoy food or not, food is inescapable. You must eat.”

a strong effect on growth and development in plants. Fuqua said Miller identified one of the two most important hormones in plant biology. “He was very methodical and mechanistic,” Fuqua said. “He wanted to know what the underlying molecular mechanisms were that drive the diversity of biology. Why does one plant grow as a weedy, multi-branch plant and another grow as a single trunk?” Miller devoted the rest of his career to understanding the biochemical ways that cytokinin exert its effects on plant growth and development. In addition to his talents in science, Fuqua said he had a great conversational style. “He came across as somewhat of a country boy,” Fuqua said. “He had a very colloquial accent and had a really good sense of humor. He would laugh a lot. He was not the kind of person where you’d meet him and go, ‘Oh, this guy is a master biochemist.’ He was very unassuming.” Innes said Miller was known in the department for leading by example in his

classes. Many of his graduate students are now leading students and professors at other universities studying plant biology, Fuqua said. “He just had an insatiable curiosity about how things work, and for the graduate students, that was something that rubbed off on them,” Innes said. Innes recalled Miller liked to talk about the stock market in addition to science. “He was very talented at investing in the stock market, which is why he was able to give so much to the University,” Innes said. “He did very well, but never spent it on himself.” Miller died in 2012. But with his scholarships and a statue in the biology department, Innes said Miller’s work in the department will not be forgotten. “He just loved doing science, and he appreciated that the institution provided him the resources and the infrastructure and students and colleagues that allowed him to do that,” Fuqua said. “The biology department was his family.”

14-year-old girl reports sex crime by father FROM IDS REPORTS

A 14-year-old girl reported to the Bloomington Police Department that her father touched her inappropriately and threatened to punch her in the face. Bloomington police responded Tuesday to the girl’s report, BPD Sgt. Joe Crider said. She has since been removed from the home and transported to Meadows Hospital, not for injuries but to keep her separated from her father. Child Protective Services and city police are following up with an investigation. A person who is at least 18 years old and has sexual intercourse or deviant sexual conduct with a child of 14 to 16 years old commits sexual misconduct with a minor, a class C felony. If the person committing the criminal offense is at least 21 years old, the offense is considered a class B felony, according to Indiana law. The offense becomes a class A felony if committed by using or threatening to use force. Class A felony convictions can result in up to 50 years of imprisonment with a fine of up to $10,000.

City police prepare Little 500 response FROM IDS REPORTS

Bloomington Police Department has begun preparations for Little 500 weekend. Typically, Little 500 weekend brings a high number of arrests for underage drinking, public intoxication, disorderly conduct and assaults that take place at large parties or in the downtown area near student-oriented bars, according to a BPD press release. Additional officers will work both Friday and Saturday nights. The majority of officers will work overnight hours when the need is greatest for extra personnel, according to the release. In addition to officers in marked and unmarked police cars, police will also patrol on foot downtown near the bars and in areas known for large parties such as near Memorial Stadium. A remote booking site for the Monroe County Jail will be set up at the department, which helps make officers available more quickly than typical booking procedures at the actual jail, according to the release. BPD will also provide a command center that will include personnel from various law enforcement agencies and first responders such as the Indiana State Police, Indiana State Excise Police, Indiana University Police Department, Monroe County Sheriff ’s Office, Bloomington Fire Department and IU Health Bloomington Hospital Ambulance Service. BPD advises people participating in activities related to the Little 500 weekend to use good judgment in their consumption of alcohol, watch out for friends who may have had too much to drink and don’t hesitate to call 911 for help if someone needs medical assistance. Indiana’s Lifeline Law provides protections in many situations for people who call for emergency medical assistance rather than subjecting them to arrest. Rebecca Kimberly

HEROES OF THE ENVIRONMENT

Bloomington Mayor Mark Kruzan recognizes award winners at the annual Eco-Heroes Awards Ceremony at Bloomington City Hall on Wednesday. The Econ-Heroes is an artistic competition for K-12 students, and the prizes were provided by local businesses. The 2014 theme was tied to the Environmental Commission’s Lawns for Life initiative, which seeks to encourage natural ways of caring for lawns in order to create a healthier environment.

City Council overrides Kruzan veto Members vote 7-2 to allow sharpshooting after many weeks of deliberation about ordinance BY KATE STARR kastarr@indiana.edu

Griffy deer had a brief moment of relief when Mayor Mark Kruzan vetoed an ordinance that would allow for limited sharpshooting in the Griffy Nature Preserve, but it didn’t last long. The Bloomington City Council voted to override Kruzan’s veto by a margin of 7-2 with no abstentions. After more than 10 hours of deliberation on the ordinance, the council thought its job was done. It was in the early hours of the morning April 10 when the council passed the ordinance by a margin of 6-2 with one abstention. But the deer debate was not finished yet. Kruzan returned Rollo and Ruff ’s ordinance April 11 without his signature. He refused to support a piece of legislation that involves “the killing of animals,” Kruzan said in a letter to the council. Council members Dave Rollo and Andy Ruff suggested sharpshooting as the most humane and effective way to deal with the adverse effects deer overpopulation is having on the Griffy Lake Nature Preserve. “This can over time result in a permanent alteration of

the woodland, and this state may be irreversible,” Rollo said. Kruzan was not convinced, however. “I fully understand a sufficient number of votes were cast to overturn a veto, but I can’t lend my name to the passage of a pro-hunting law,” Kruzan said in the letter. Ruff pointed out that the venison from the deer killed would go to Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry, a benefit he thinks the city should take into serious consideration. Currently, Bloomington’s municipal code does not allow any use of a firearm within city limits unless it is discharged by a law enforcement officer or used in selfdefense. The ordinance proposed by the council would amend the code to allow professional sharpshooters to cull the deer population at Griffy. As was the case for previous council meetings, public comment was split. However, a majority of the comments came from opponents of the ordinance. “I want to praise the council for passing this last time it came up, and encourage those who voted yes for it last time to vote yes

again, those who voted no to vote yes and even those who abstained to vote yes,” said Cathy Meyer, a naturalist of Monroe County Parks and Recreation Department. Scott Wells, a Bloomington local, agreed and showed a Power Point that labeled deer as not just a Griffy problem, but a county-wide problem. Wells’ biggest concern was deer “munching on trees,” he said. “I’ve actively pursued Bambi. I said, ‘Bambi, no, no, don’t eat my trees,’” Wells said. “We’ve got to get this balance back and, unfortunately, we need to take the emotion out of it.” Bruce Bundy, another Bloomington local, was in favor of the ordinance. Deer overpopulation is a serious problem in Indiana, he said, and the city needs sharpshooting to fix it. Because there are no predators to moderate the deer population at Griffy, humans have a responsibility to protect the environment, Bundi said. “Humans are the only apex predators left,” Bundi said. Costs to the city for the expense of hiring professional sharpshooters was estimated to be about $30,000

Voter turnout higher than usual for primary election FROM IDS REPORTS

With less than two weeks until Election Day, early voter turnout is outpacing previous years, county officials said. As of Wednesday afternoon, 395 votes had been cast for the midterm primary election, Monroe County Election Supervisor Ruth Hickman said. That’s about one-third higher than this time in 2010, the last midterm election year. “I really do not know what is going on out there,” Hickman said. “The walk-in is up a little bit. I’m trying to figure if my request for mail is up. I don’t think that is the case.” Even though turnout seems to be higher than usual this election cycle, turnout isn’t likely to be high. Primary elections are notorious for low voter

turnout, particularly those in midterm years — when ballots have congressional races but not presidential races. In 2010, just 12 percent of registered voters in the county actually voted, compared to 39 percent in the November general election that same year, according to Indiana Election Division data. “We’ll probably stay close to where we are,” Hickman said. “We won’t have a huge turnout.” Hickman said the slight increase from 2010 could be due to a few contested races. Because primary elections pit candidates against one another within political parties to determine the ballot for the General Election later in the year, races can be uncontested. “We have a sheriff ’s race that may be generating some activity,” she said.

“We have several township trustee races this time.” Four candidates are running for sheriff as Democrats. For the U.S. House of Representatives 9th District, four Democrats and three Republicans are running. Judge, county clerk and several township board races are contested this year throughout the county. Ultimately, though, Hickman said turnout will depend on how well candidates are able to mobilize voters between now and the May 6 Election Day. “Who’s to know?” Hickman said. “If people really, really want to win, the old fashioned way is to be out there knocking on doors. That still works.” Michael Auslen

annually. Timothy Baer, also a Bloomington local, said he was disappointed and saddened by the council’s vote. He also pointed out that the sharpshooters will target pregnant does and fawns. “Problem solving by killing is flatly wrong,” Baer said. “There is nothing ‘humane’ about killing healthy, innocent, sentient deer.” Laramie Wilson, who lives in the Southern portion of the Griffy neighborhood, asked the council to override the ordinance. She argued vital information, including the number of deer in Griffy as well as the number of deer that will be killed, must be verified before sharpshooting can begin. “The council should not amend the fire arms code until these questions are answered,” Wilson said. Council member Darryl Neher said he appreciates everyone who participated in the public comment but he intended to still vote to override the ordinance. Council member Marty Spechler also said he would vote for the override because Kruzan didn’t address the potential environmental effects of allowing the deer to live peacefully at Griffy.

“I don’t want to put deer against flowers, but I view the birds and I value the birds and I value the flowers every day and we will continue to value the deer when they’re reduced to a number that are healthy,” Spechler said. Sandra Shapshay, assistant professor in the IU Department of Philosophy, and Anne Sterling, Midwest regional director of the Humane Society of the United States, agreed and also argued that no legitimate evidence has been provided that suggests there is an “ecological catastrophe demanding immediate legal action,” Shapshay said. Maria Heslin, former Bloomington deputy mayor, provided a slightly different perspective, suggesting that the ordinance goes against the city’s mission to “promote, preserve and enhance Bloomington, Indiana’s distinct identity and vibrant quality of life.” “I have total faith in our community ... to develop an innovative plan that would prevent us, at least right now, from needing to sharp shoot deer,” Heslin said. Heslin added she hoped the community would arrive at a solution “that is truly Bloomington.”

State releases IREAD-3 reading test results FROM IDS REPORTS

The Indiana Department of Education recently released the results of the Indiana Reading Evaluation and Determination test for 2014. The IREAD-3 test measures students’ reading abilities through third grade. Since 2011, the number of Indiana third graders passing the IREAD-3 test has increased 5 percent. In 2011, 80 percent of Indiana students passed the test, compared to 85 percent in 2014. In 2013, 94.9 percent of students in the Monroe County Community School Corporation passed the IREAD-3 test. A total of 766 students took the test, with 727 passing. Childs Elementary performed best in 2013, with 100 percent of the 66 students who took the test passing. Fairview Elementary performed the worst, with

83.7 percent of the 49 students who took the test passing. All other elementary schools had at least 91.2 percent of participating students pass the test. Information for school and corporation passing rates for 2014 will be available later this month. “Today’s numbers are another sign of the great work that is happening in our schools every day,” Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Glenda Ritz said in a press release. “These numbers show that year by year, we have continued to see modest increases in our passage rate. More importantly, they show that we are promoting a culture of literacy throughout our state. “Moving forward, I will continue to promote literacy and reading throughout all of Indiana.” Sydney Murray

Mark Houlemarde watches as a group of fraternity men participate in an activity about consent. Rape on college campuses often results from a lack of clear consent between partners.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 knows the statistic, he said. One in five women who graduate from college have been sexually assaulted. He knows the guys don’t believe it, because they just don’t know many women who have been raped. Should he tell them that just because they don’t know it happened, doesn’t mean it never did? “I’m tired of talking about the statistics,” he said, even louder now. “I’ve never heard anyone say that it’s one in seven. It’s always one in four, one in five. “But if it were one in seven, wouldn’t that still be a problem? If it was one in 10? One in 100?” He took a breath, and another text appeared on the screen. “okay fine there is a problem. Tell us how to fix it.” *

Sexual assault is a crime IU has tried to curb for decades. During Little 500, the rise in alcohol use only makes the problem worse. So they try crisis lines and counseling sessions. Blue lights and police. Student groups and intervention workshops. Musicals about consent and bookmarks that say, “Passivity is often seen as permission.” But this year, a student came to campus with a new idea.

while intoxicated. Always, about half go to each side. Cross the line if you believe it’s a woman’s responsibility to determine how far a hookup or an intimate relationship should go. More move to “no,” but many cluster in the middle. Cross the line if you believe sexual assault is an issue on this campus. All but a few move to yes. Mark works primarily with fraternities. He doesn’t believe fraternities are the problem. Men are the problem, he says, and through fraternities, he can talk to large groups of them. But according to the Office of Student Ethics, 46 percent of all reported rapes last school year were committed by a fraternity brother. That’s 10 percent of the population causing almost half of all sexual assaults, Mark tells the guys. Some brothers listen attentively. Some play on their phones. Some answer his questions with enthusiasm. Some toss their McDonald’s wrappers like basketballs into the trash. Many of them are hearing about men’s roles in the issue of sexual assault for the first time. “Women are told not to get raped,” Mark says. “But I don’t know if any men have actually been told, ‘Don’t rape somebody.’” And if they are, he says, the

What if we could stop rape from happening in the first place, by talking to the people who might rape? *

The Don’t Rape Guy’s name is Mark Houlemarde. He’s a 26-year-old Ph.D. student studying higher education and student affairs. He dresses simply and speaks thoughtfully. He says “partner” instead of girlfriend, “fraternity men” instead of frat bros. He punctuates every few sentences with, “Right?” In front of crowds as big as 80 guys, it’s his way of asking them to think. “Because no one in this room considers themselves to be a rapist, right?” he says. Since October, Mark’s job has been to seek out groups of men at IU to talk about not assaulting women. Almost every minute of his presentations are interactive. He makes them move around, act out scenarios in role-playing games and most importantly, talk out loud about rape. Sometimes he draws an invisible line down the middle of the room and tells them to walk to the side that represents their opinion. Over here for yes, over there for no. Cross the line, he’ll say, if you think someone can give consent

message is easily undermined by the idea of what men are expected to do in college — meet a lot of girls, get drunk, have sex. “So then it’s easy to avoid thinking about all the things that go into having sex,” he says. “The communication. The relationship with the other person.” Most men believe rape is wrong, he says, but it happens anyway. If he can help them understand how and why, he might be able to stop it before it’s too late. The key is to teach consent. Mark offers them prompts and gets them to say out loud what he knows they need to hear. Your partner stops or is unresponsive. “If in any way the girl stops communicating with you, then that’s absolutely a stop,” a brother says. You feel like you are getting mixed signals. “There needs to be better communication before you just go ahead.” You intend to have sex by any means necessary. “Well, uh, that sounds a little outrageous.” But what about the spirit of it? Mark asks the group. “What about, ‘We’re gonna go out tonight, and we’re gonna get some pussy?’” They hesitate. Then they start

laughing. Out of Mark’s earshot, one guy says, “Aye!” “I mean, if it happens, it happens,” someone replies. *

In front of the crowd in Woodburn Hall, Mark had just finished ranting about statistics. He leaned back in his seat and let the other panelists keep talking as the audience’s eyes shifted to the screen. Questions were still appearing. “Why are women not held accountable,” one read. In the small groups of women in the crowd, arms crossed. Men started whispering to each other. “women should not be held accountable for rape. is a victim of murder accountable for provoking their attacker? nope. violence is violence.” a message read. “No accountability on women? Did u know that every accident in cars you are held minimally 10% at fault no matter wat” A brown-haired woman in the middle aisle stood up and raised her hand for the microphone. She was a sophomore named Sara Hutson, but now was not the time for introductions. “So, someone sent in stuff about accountability for women,” she said, turning to face the crowd. “So, hi, guys. I’m one of your victims. And the perpetrator is, was, a pledge class leader for one of your fraternities.” She tried to get out the words to make them understand — what it was like, when he grabbed her from behind in the McNutt hallway — how she was scared of his temper, the time he bit her breast as she pushed him away — why she screamed, when she found him hiding behind her bed, eating pistachios and watching her undress. “People don’t report sexual assault because we’re afraid,” she said. “Because we know you. Mine was my next-door neighbor. So if I report it and nothing happens, what happens to me?” Mark and Sara had never met, but he has heard too many stories like hers. People ask him

why he doesn’t bring women like her into his presentations. He knows her experiences might help men understand sexual assault is real. It might help them learn not to blame the victim. He also knows most men wouldn’t see themselves in her story. Sexual assault on college campuses rarely plays out like rapes on TV, a stranger attacking an unsuspecting woman in a dark alley at night. Rape in college is acquaintances at parties and friends of friends at the bar. It’s alcohol and feeling comfortable in the college town you call home. It’s not understanding how far a hookup is supposed to go. It’s not asking. He looked at Sara. He looked at the guys. He wondered what it would take. *

Mark has known many women who have confided in him about being sexually assaulted. One of them happens to be his girlfriend. “When I met Mark, this was already something he cared deeply about,” she says now. “Even without me, Mark would still be doing this kind of work.” He started working in sexual assault prevention as an undergraduate in California, years before he met her. It wasn’t a certain person or story or experience that got him going. It was learning rape was an issue and realizing that, as a man, he could do something about it. “This isn’t rocket science,” he likes to say. If he believed he was special to think this way, he wouldn’t try so hard to get other men to realize that they can think this way, too. He doesn’t want to be the Don’t Rape Guy. He wants to be one of many. But for now, his Sexual Assault Crisis Services job — which has no real title and technically is an internship — makes Mark the only man at IU whose position is solely dedicated to rape prevention. There’s no clear line between his work life and his personal life. Mark can’t ignore the

warning signs everywhere on a college campus — parties with themes like CEO Bros and Office Hoes, guys discussing a girl’s ass on their way to the gym outof-towners who visit IU just to party. He can’t relax at most bars, so he just doesn’t go. The friend he hangs out with most is a former coworker who Mark guesses is in his 50s. He has never thought to ask. Sometimes they go bird watching. Mark’s girlfriend worries about the sacrifices he’s made for this job. All of this, for $12 an hour? “Well,” he told her, “If I don’t, who will?” *

Being the Don’t Rape Guy during the “World’s Greatest College Weekend” is about letting go. This semester, Mark has spoken at two movie screenings, a conference in Indianapolis, a training for sorority sisters, eight planning meetings and 10 fraternity events. But during Little 500, that all stops. All around campus, there are few educational events and no campus tours. Some professors even cancel class. Academic life pauses, and the party starts. Fraternities will day drink and throw late-night ragers. Kilroy’s will add extra cover charges and still pack the patio to the brim. Porches across town will be cleared for beer pong tables and Solo cups. By Wednesday, the emergency room at Bloomington Hospital will begin one of its busiest times of year. And Mark will be at home. He really needs to catch up on classwork, he says. He won’t be at Dunnkirk, the ScHoolboy Q concert or the “Risky Business”themed party on Third Street. It’s not that he hasn’t thought about it — but what would he do? Talk to drunk 20-year-olds? Look for the guys he’s seen in his presentations? He’s told them not to rape. He just hopes they listened.

I was very, very pleased with him today.” IU kicked off the scoring in the first inning on an odd turn of events.

came around to score after the throw to third went into left field. Ball State senior Kyle Raleigh hit a rocket of a home run in the second inning to tie the game, but the IU offense came alive in the sixth. IU junior Kyle Schwarber, senior third baseman Dustin DeMuth, sophomore infielder Brian Wilhite and junior outfielder Ricky Alfonso each had an RBI in the inning to complement Hartong. “If you put together good at-bats and consistent atbats, your hits are going to fall,” Smith said. Senior Clay Manering started and threw three innings for the Cardinals, allowing one run on one hit and three strikeouts. The Cardinals’ bullpen gave up the damage. The Hoosiers are atop the Big Ten standings and will face the second place team in the conference, Illinois, this weekend. “Where we are sitting with the RPI nationally, every game is important.” Smith said.

$1 million, he clarified. According to official “Wheel of Fortune” rules, Batts said, when a player lands on a million-dollar wedge, they then have to answer the puzzle correctly and not hit any “bankrupt” wedges for the rest of the game, win the game and also spin the wheel again in the bonus round and land on a million dollar envelope and solve that puzzle correctly. He said it’s only ever been done on the show twice. Despite his fumbles during the taping, Batts said he never expected what happened to go viral the way it did. “I’m not online scrolling through to see, ‘What’s the worst comment someone could say about me?’” he said. “That just gets negative energy in your brain and makes everything worse.” Right after the episode aired April 11, the double major in business and Spanish major said he definitely noticed some double takes walking around campus. Despite some of the negative comments online, he said he’s experienced an outpouring of support from the University in person. “I have a strong support system, and these people are behind me 100 percent,” Batts said. Back in the Student Building, Batts listened to the buzzer and watched his competitor from A&M complete the puzzle. Throughout the room he heard murmurs of laughter and people saying, “That’s OK!” Later, he watched himself take the wheel, and spin again. “People can say what they’re going to say — haters gonna hate — but at the end of the day, I won.”

DANE IN REAL LIFE

EDITORIAL BOARD

Greeks and non-greeks deserve to know

EMMA WENNINGER is a sophomore majoring in English.

Darren Aronofsky’s newest movie, “Noah,” is generating some unexpected controversy because it is more about saving the environment than it is about religion. I heard somewhere Aronofsky said he was proud of the movie’s nearcomplete lack of religion. But in researching the movie’s production story I could find nothing that would back up that claim. Still, I think it’s an interesting question. If a movie is going to be about a biblical figure or if a movie is going to discuss metaphysical concepts, it does not necessarily have to name God. In an era where we’re so deepely divided, religious movies across the board have been highly polarizing. People either find them completely ludicrous or spiritually inspiring. While many are up-inarms about “Noah,” I don’t think the movie’s lack of religion is necessarily a bad thing. I do think Aronofsky himself may have been a bit abrasive when he decided to leave God out of the movie’s primary themes. Much like Roland Emmerich’s glee at destroying the Vatican in 2009’s “2012,” Aronofsky seemed a little too pleased with his decision. I don’t think making choices to spite a group of people is the best way to go about doing things. However, I think he might inadvertently introduce many to what he wanted to avoid. Leaving God out of the movies allows people who would rather avoid religious subjects the chance to experience it without feeling like they are making a huge spiritual commitment. In fact, it opens up interesting channels of debate and conversation. Instead of ostracizing certain groups, it could potentially present a biblical story from an objective angle and allow many who feel like they couldn’t say anything to discuss the story from both a religious and secular perspective. While “Noah” might not have been a box-office hit, I have high hopes for the trends this movie could potentially ignite. I’d be interested to see religious movies become secular again, like they were when Charlton Heston was around. You rarely find someone watching “Passion of the Christ” on a relaxing night in. But they might just watch “Noah.”

WE SAY: End the net of suspicion over our greek system. Today, the Indiana Daily Student published a story regarding the work of Mark Houlemarde, a Ph.D. student whose work involves speaking to men on campus about preventing sexual assault. The story brings attention to alarming statistic — 46 percent of rapes on campus last year were committed by members of a fraternity, according to the Office of Student Ethics. There were at least 35 sexual assaults reported in 2012 that occurred on IU property. The problem is that any sexual assaults that don’t happen on IU property do not have to be publicly disclosed. This means we’re getting only a fraction of the entire picture. And though not all of these crimes are exclusive to the greek system, we cannot ignore its part in this problem. Each year, the Student Organization Ethics Board provides a list of campus organizations on probation, suspended or expelled. Every organization on the current list is a fraternity. Yet on that list, an important

piece of information is missing — the reason for the disciplinary action. Leaving people unaware of what offenses certain fraternities have committed in order to find themselves on judicial watch not only does a disservice to our greek system, but also to our campus at large. It’s important to note that when something as atrocious as a rape is committed, it is committed by individuals, not an organization. But we cannot ignore the existing culture in some chapters on our campus and the role it ultimately has on the actual perpetrating of sexual violence. This is why the Editorial Board — composed of both greek and independent students — believes the Student Organization Ethics Board should make this knowledge public. If a fraternity is on probation because its members were found responsible for a sexual assault, students should be able to access this information so they can make an informed decision whether to attend events where they are at risk

of predators. Perhaps the Ethics Board thinks by not releasing the cause of the disciplinary actions, they are protecting victims. But the organizations, which would have the most motivation to antagonize victims that get them into trouble, already know why they have been chastised. They know what and who got them in trouble, so further secrecy in the name of the victim is moot. We aren’t asking for names or dates. We aren’t asking for descriptions. A simple box labeled “sexual assault” with a check beside it would serve our campus well. Adding some public accountability would work as a preventative method. Fraternities and individuals don’t want to be labeled as sexual predators. So if the simple moral obligation doesn’t prevent attacks, perhaps the public shame and threat to their image will. Many students are already aware of the different reputations different greek organizations have in regard to sexual assault and other

illegal activities. But incoming freshmen, who some might argue are already the most vulnerable because of their unfamiliarity with the college lifestyle, aren’t in the loop. They are sometimes left to learn where not to go the hard way. In order to prevent these situations, everyone should be aware of the infractions made by fraternities that are severe enough to result in probation. The Editorial Board absolutely acknowledges not all fraternities, and certainly not all fraternity brothers, are guilty of sexual assault. But it would be naïve to think it isn’t a problem on this campus. If the Student Organization Ethics Board were to be more transparent in regards to the specific infractions of fraternities on probation, the student body would be better able to know which chapters to avoid, instead of casting a wide net of suspicion over our entire greek system. opinion@idsnews.com @IDS_opinion

Put your phones away DANE MCDONALD is a senior majoring in journalism.

My friends and I did a peculiar thing during brunch the other weekend. There were eight of us and, after ordering our food, we realized every single one of us were buried in our iPhones. It was embarrassing, and we all decided to stack our phones in the middle of the table so nobody was allowed to check them. I’ve written columns on how liberating it was to delete my Facebook and the dangers of 21st century and millennial habits. We are a culture more electronically connected than ever, and, like any trend, there are distinct positives and negatives. But seeing as I graduate from IU in exactly 16 days, it’s become more important than ever that I put away my phone whenever possible and look my friends in the eye. I want to actually spend time together without checking Instagram or playing Candy Crush. I want to actually have a conversation and a real human-to-human connection with all of these people with whom I only have a short time left. All my iPhone apps aren’t going anywhere. They’re going to be right there every time I open my phone. My friends — the people who have become my closest allies and confidants during these past four years — won’t be there every time I open my phone. Well, at least not in person. It’s alarming to think these devices that build a barrier between people in the same room may soon be the only way I have to contact those same people. I have friends headed all across the country. Some are staying here in Bloomington, others returning home and some even heading overseas. I would kick myself if I wasted even one more minute glued to my iPhone when my time left with my fellow Hoosiers is so finite. All things come to their ends, and without these endings we would never have to opportunity to look back on all the memories we’ve made with the people we love. I can’t wait to move on from IU and start new adventures that I’m sure will be at times both terrifying and exhilarating. But while I’m still here, I’m going to spend my time with people instead of electronics as much as I can. Tweets, Facebook posts and Snapchats aren’t going anywhere. But we are, so don’t waste any more time than you already have.

Johnson takes Louisville job, leaves IU Kenny Johnson has left the IU basketball program and taken the top assistant job at Louisville. Johnson spent two seasons under IU Coach Tom Crean as an assistant coach and the

Hoosiers’ recruiting coordinator. “We appreciate all that Kenny Johnson added to the Indiana basketball program over the last two years, and we value his friendship,” Crean said.

Hoosier softball bounces back with victory BY DAN MATNEY cdmatney@indiana.edu

The IU softball team (1433-1, 4-13) was ready for a turnaround Wednesday. IU women’s soccer Coach Amy Berbary threw the game’s first pitch, and a member of a youth softball team, Avon Elite, sang the national anthem. And if the day wasn’t already emotionally charged, IU had an opportunity to defeat Louisville (28-18, 9-6) for the first time in a decade. The Hoosiers did just that, downing the Cardinals 8-3. IU Coach Michelle Gardner made it a point in practice this week for the offense to execute with runners on base. “It felt really good to win today,” she said. “We got some timely hitting out of the offense. It was a key to the win today.” After a pair of singles from junior centerfielder Brianna Meyer and senior shortstop

Breanna Saucedo, sophomore second baseman Kassi Farmer hit a ground ball to left field, scoring the first run of the day. Another IU walk loaded the bases. Louisville made a pitching change from freshman pitcher Maryssa Becker to senior Rachel LeCoq. LeCoq was unable to stop the Hoosier scoring run, walking two batters with the bases loaded to give IU an early 3-0 lead. In the bottom of the third inning, IU continued to solidify its lead. Facing a full count with two outs and the bases loaded, sophomore catcher Kelsey Dotson drew a walk, which brought in freshman right fielder Natalie Lalich. Following the walk, Louisville made the second pitching change of the game, this time bringing in senior Caralisa Connell. On the following at-bat, Meyer drew a walk, bringing in freshman outfielder Kayla

Mathewson. With two outs, Saucedo hit a high-bouncing ball just over shortstop Hannah Kiyohara’s head, driving in senior third baseman Shelby Gogreve to give IU a six-run lead. Following a Farmer triple in the fourth, freshman first baseman CaraMia Tsirigos hit a two-run home run over the right field wall, giving IU an 8-0 lead. The homerun was Tsirigos’ fourth of the season and her second since returning to the lineup following a hand injury. “I felt really confident out there today,” Tsirigos said. “I’ve been seeing the ball really well lately. It’s nice to connect on one.” Gardner decided to make a move to the bullpen, bringing in senior Meaghan Murphy after four scoreless innings from junior Lora Olson. Gardner said she made the move because she wanted all three of the team’s pitchers to

see action. “I wanted all of them to get innings tonight,” Gardner said. “Despite the homerun, Meaghan did a very good job.” Murphy struggled, pitching 0.2 innings while allowing three runs. Louisville got on the board for the first time in the top of the fifth when senior catcher Maggie Ruckenbrod hit a homerun over the center field wall. They scored again when junior first baseman Brittany Duncan drove in two runs off of a double off the center field wall. Olson was credited with the win, giving her a record of 6-14 on the season. “I felt good out there tonight,” Olson said. “Our defense made some awesome plays. Their performance gave me some momentum. Whenever the defense is playing well, it really allows me to attack hitters.”

Men’s tennis starts Big Ten Tourney versus Minnesota BY MICHAEL HUGHES michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94

Last fall, the IU men’s soccer team did not perform up to preseason expectations but qualified for the NCAA Tournament by winning the Big Ten Tournament. The IU men’s tennis team is trying to do the same this spring. No. 67 IU begins this quest against No. 55 Minnesota on Thursday. IU lost 4-3 against Minnesota earlier this season in Bloomington. IU Coach Randy

Bloemendaal said prior experience against Minnesota will prove beneficial to his young team. “I think it helps a lot,” Bloemendaal said. “I think in tennis visualization is important, and when you’ve seen the guy across the net and you know how he’s going to play, it makes a difference.” There will be two main changes between this match and when the two teams last met in March. This match will be played in East Lansing, Mich., rather than Bloomington. IU is 1-9 away from home, and was

defeated by Michigan State in East Lansing last weekend. “We learned a really hard lesson over the weekend,” Bloemendaal said. “I think it’s going to help us, no doubt about it. I think we’re going to be ready to go.” In addition to the change of venue, IU will have sophomore Samuel Monette healthy and in the lineup. An elbow injury prevented Monette from helping IU try and stave off defeat against the Spartans in March. Monette has split time at No. 1 and No. 2 singles this season, as well as No. 1 and

No. 2 doubles. Bloemendaal said the doubles point could be a critical part of the match, especially because of what Bloemendaal calls question marks in his singles lineup. “We need to win the doubles point to set the tone,” Bloemendaal said. “Then we need to find three singles matches to win. The bottom of our lineup has been a huge question mark, then you throw (Sven) Lalic in there and you have three question marks before you start the match.” Lalic, a junior, has lost all 10 of his Big Ten singles

matches this season. Though his competition has been stiff — he plays at No. 1 and No. 2 singles — Bloemendaal said it is time for Lalic to step up. “Lalic is more than good enough,” Bloemendaal said. “He should be All-Big Ten material. It’s not the physical third holding him back — the skill set is good enough.” Bloemendaal said this weekend could be a fresh beginning not only for Lalic, but for the entire team. “I look at this tournament as a reset,” Bloemendaal said. “Start from the postseason and try to write the story we

wanted to write all along.” All season Bloemendaal has said that story’s final chapter will be the NCAA Tournament. In addition to the IU men’s soccer team, Bloemedaal said he has regaled his team with the tale of the 1983 North Carolina State basketball team. The Hoosiers have seen the “30 for 30” documentary on the Wolfpack. Now, they will try to survive and advance in the Big Ten tournament. “We’re going to hit reset, forget everything that’s happened and try to win this tournament,” Bloemendaal said.

Amazon and HBO recently reached a deal that will allow Amazon Prime members to view the cable network’s shows. Available programming will include all past seasons of finished HBO shows as well as

ScHoolboy Q to headline Little 500 Concert FROM IDS REPORTS

Rapper ScHoolboy Q will headline this year’s Little 500 Concert at 7:30 p.m. today in IU Auditorium. He will be joined by artists Isaiah Rashad, Vince Staples and Audio Push.

Tickets start at $35 for students and $45 for the general public. They can be purchased at iuauditorium.com and the auditorium’s box office. ScHoolboy Q, a 27-yearold from south-central Los Angeles, stems from a rap

group called Black Hippy, which also includes rappers Ab-Soul, Jay Rock and Kendrick Lamar. “Their group is the hottest group in hip-hop right now,” Union Board Director of Music Mike Zak said. ScHoolboy Q has released

three studio albums — 2011’s “Setbacks,” 2012’s “Habits & Contradictions” and “Oxymoron,” released in February. Zak said when presented with the opportunity for an artist like ScHoolboy Q to perform for the Little 500 Concert, he made his

decision because students were asking for a hip-hop show. “I felt the students would enjoy this concert the most,” he said. He said the show was intended for all ages and that a very diverse group is

expected among the audience. Zak also said students could anticipate a high-energy performance from all the acts. “Expect a good time in a safe environment,” he said. Madison Hogan

POSTCARD FROM PARIS

The Tourist Culture of Marrakech, Morocco Looking for an escape from the clouds as Paris slowly tiptoed into spring, I recently headed south to Marrakech, Morocco, for spring break. I was curious to visit a nonEuropean French-speaking country, which also had overcome the rule of the French Protectorate. Landing in Marrakech, I was greeted by a gust of hot air, quickly followed by the brightly burning sun. I was no longer in mainland Europe. The orderly roads of Paris were quickly replaced by drivers with little regard for traffic laws and were simply content in using their horn in order to weave in and out of lanes. After being dropped off on the side of the road and overcoming a moment of panic, a guide from my hostel led me and a Canadian couple through winding alleyways to our sign-less hostel. I was quickly greeted by a cup of warm tea and thrown into a cluster of worn out young travelers. As the dark of the night settled in, I ventured through the winding alleys to make my way to Jamaa el Fna. This square is full of vendors, restaurants, performers and motorcyclists trying to make their

way through the crowds. It doesn’t take too long to realize the city of Marrakech is geared toward tourists. From the number of hostels, spas, non-Moroccan restaurants and massive tour groups that can easily be spotted throughout the city, it’s evident that tourism is pivotal to this Moroccan city’s economy. As I wandered around the square, I saw many Moroccans dressed in traditional Berber clothing offering photo opportunities to tourists. Many servers, cab drivers and others in the service industry constantly apologized for their inability to speak English, which was striking after having lived in Paris where most will scoff at your inability to speak French. It became clear the city did what it could to present its culture in a comprehensible bite-sized package for its Western visitors. Though Morocco is predominantly Muslim, tourists are able to get away with wearing shorter, skimpier clothing due to the sheer number of foreigners that visit the city. Vendors were skilled at identifying where tourists

are from and can tweak their heckling technique to attract customers. While I loved visiting palaces, bargaining with vendors at the souks and riding camels at the Palmeraie, I left Marrakech not fully understanding the

culture. In some senses, it seemed as though Marrakech served Western travelers the way Florida serves American travelers. It was a vacation city, full of luxury hotels and families with young children. Marrakech is certainly worth the visit, especially be-

cause of how safe it can be for travelers. The city is even equipped with its own tourist police force to help keep visitors safe. Especially as a young female wanting to travel to North Africa, Marrakech was my safest option. Enjoy the touristic oppor-

tunities Marrakech offers, but if you have the chance, venture out to other cities in Morocco to better understand the country’s culture, because Marrakech will leave you longing for more. anukumar@indiana.edu

Children eye an open-air candy store at an Easter food market in Budapest, Hungary.

While some people look forward to spring break so they can take in different sights the world has to offer, this week I took a slightly different approach. I basically ate everything I ran into. This isn’t usually a problem in Paris because there really isn’t any street food. And aside from the smell of bread baking late at night, French food doesn’t really have any strong smells. So there normally isn’t anything that will tempt me on the street. That situation changed these last couple weeks. Needing to take a break from Paris, I pulled away from France and wandered my way through Italy and Budapest, Hungary. If I sum up what I found, I would say both countries have mastered the intricate task of making something that tastes complex, yet you can tell they only use a handful of ingredients. In Hungary, I gave halászlé — a Hungarian fish stew heaping with paprika — a shot. I was not disappointed. With only a spoonful, I

could tell that the soup probably only had five ingredients in total. The pound of paprika loaded into my bowl just made everything taste heartier than it was. In Italy, I was told to try one of Rome’s special pasta dishes — cacio e pepe. Translated, that means “cheese and pepper.” Normally, when I walk into an authentic Italian restaurant, I look for the most complicated looking dish. Usually it is overflowing with some form of seafood. I don’t want to pay for someone to make something I could make. So, I pick something that I know I will never be able to do successfully. But I was pleasantly surprised by the power of pure simplicity. I feel as if the salt and pepper shakers on the average dinner table get overlooked. Yet I sometimes forget how useful pepper can be. It cut through the fattiness of my cheese sauce nicely by zipping heat through my mouth. But it wasn’t overwhelming. It also helped that I was in Hungary for Easter weekend. There were Easter markets

everywhere, and it was not hard to find myself surrounded by food. Again, simplicity was key. Nothing was overdone. In fact, street food is better that way. Of all I did during spring break, food or not, those markets were my favorite. It was there where I could find other paprika-loaded dishes and other traditional Hungarian foods. Walking down the concrete sidewalk, I passed by countless wooden cottagelike food stands all selling fried cheese breads, roasting sausages and Kürtoskalács — a chimney-shaped cake sometimes coated in coconut or cinnamon sugar. I found myself breathing in the smells of unfamiliar foods, and I felt myself seeping in the unfamiliar yet comfortable atmosphere. That is one thing I love about living in Europe. You are never far away from a handful of different cultures’ foods.

Two paws down ‘Bears’

John C. Reilly CDisney has been producing some amazing work through its independent film label, Disneynature. Since 2008, Disneynature has been adding an artistic flair to the way we view our planet through documentaries such as “Earth,” “Oceans” and “Chimpanzee.” Disneynature’s newest installment, “Bears,” follows Sky, an Alaskan brown bear who has just become a mother to two cubs, Scout and Amber. The audience tags along as the family leaves the safety of hibernation to face a year of tough survival in the Alaskan wilderness. John C. Reilly provides the narration for “Bears.” It’s easy to blow off Reilly in the face of his infamous roles in so-stupid-they’refunny comedies like “Step Brothers” and “Talladega Nights.” But Reilly has also proven himself a true artist in films such as “Criminal” and his Oscar-nominated film “Chicago.”

‘Fargo’

Joey King, Billy Bob Thornton, Martin Freeman AWhile the temperature might drop into the negatives during Minnesota winters, the new TV series “Fargo” blazes hot. A spinoff of the 1996 movie of the same name, “Fargo” tells a tale of small town living where the people aren’t all they appear to be. However, no prior knowledge is necessary to enjoy the show. “Fargo” begins in the middle of a Minnesota highway. A man drives slowly through a storm in a beat-up Sedan. A deer darts across the road, startling the driver. He swerves, but another leaps in front of him, throttling the car to the snowy banks. As the driver cradles his injured head, another man emerges from the trunk wearing nothing but a pair of boxers and darts into the woods.

Lester Nygaard (Martin Freeman), a failing insurance salesman, represents the hallmark of mediocre living. Passing day to day in the shadow of his younger brother, Lester struggles with his wife, family and even an old high school bully reminding him of his miniscule existence. After an intimidating spat with his teenage nemesis Sam Less, Lester lands in the hospital, where he meets a peculiar stranger. This nomad is the driver from the earlier scene, Lorne Malvo (Billy Bob Thornton), who takes interest in Lester’s pitiful life and suggests he get even with Sam. Seeing Lester’s timidity at the thought of murder, Lorne asks if his own abilities would be of service. When Sam shows up dead, Lester must scramble to make sense of the crime while local police hunt for the offender. Though small town murder may be easy enough to understand, the characters remain a little more complex. Thornton provides an eerie intelligence to Lorne to the point that the character seems

like a prophet of violence and chaos. Lorne’s intimidating demeanor does not stem from a hulking figure or someone with firepower, but from the image he projects of a man who follows only the code of his own natural law. Abiding no other rules but his own, Lorne becomes the sinister image of wanderers after dark. Freeman keeps the worminess to Lester’s character while maintaining a level of rage under the radar. Even Allison Tolman provides warmth to the show by playing upbeat deputy Molly Solverson, a woman eager to solve crime and abide by her chief. Her character shadows the lead in the movie “Fargo,” Chief Marge Gunderson. Whatever it is that you think you know about the life of intricate small towns and friendly Midwesterners, “Fargo” will make you think twice. Let’s hope the series will strike an interest with young viewers and bring them to watch the 1996 classic — or at least give people a few pointers on their Minnesotan imitations. BY MADISON HOGAN

Reilly brings a balance of humor and sophistication as he speaks about the bears, to the bears and sometimes as the bears. In a film with main characters who have two facial expressions — mouth open and mouth close — and the dialogue consists of grunts and angry growls, music is essential. George Fenton provides a number of orchestrated pieces to adjust the mood in each scene. He uses a range of instruments to portray different moods — saxophones when the bears are feeling romantic, slow banjo riffs when the bears are lazing around a field, loud drums and quick string instrument progressions when the bears are fighting. From a production standpoint, the film is a gold mine. The cinematography is nothing short of brilliant. “Bears” is full of beautiful wide and long shots glorifying Alaskan landscapes. There are equally amazing closeups of the bears as they eat, play and fight. The clarity and intimacy of the shots are so astounding they’re almost distracting. I found myself wondering how the cameramen were getting their shots rather than caring about what the bears were

‘Heaven Is For Real’ Greg Kinnear, Kelly Reilly, Thomas Haden Church B“Heaven Is For Real” is not a film about God but about belief. Based on the New York Times best-selling book of the same name, the film tells the story of Colton Burpo (Conner Corum), who claims to have visited heaven during a near-death experience. While this trip to heaven raises many questions, Conner’s account of precise details and facts before his birth causes even more controversy. Conner’s experience challenges his father, Todd (Greg Kinnear), and submerges many people into contemplative thinking about the meaning behind his story. Nothing can be a better eye-opener than a protagonist who saw Jesus. Somehow,

doing. My answer came during the ending credits of the documentary, which had shots of the camera crew filming. There were times when they were literally just feet from these 600-pound animals, which added extra elements of danger and inspiration to the film overall. What should be further admired is the editing. The documentary took place during the course of a year, from the time the bears wake from hibernation to the time they begin their trek into the mountains to sleep again. All that time is condensed into 77 minutes. If you’re not a fan of documentaries, “Bears” isn’t for you. The storyline is somewhat compelling, but its association with Disney kills any worries that everything won’t work out OK. And no matter how adorable the bears are, they aren’t exactly interesting characters. After 30 minutes there’s nothing to hold your attention. You’ll leave with a head of useless bear facts and an urge to pet something fuzzy. BY LEXIA BANKS

Director Randall Wallace failed to transfer this “eye-mazing” story to an amazing silver-screen experience. The foreshadowing is so verbose it makes the climax reclusive. So, while Todd is praying for his son, I’m praying for plot twists. Apparently the only person God answers is Todd, otherwise the narrative wouldn’t be this dull by the time Colton wakes up. It seems Wallace just composed a vanilla narrative about visiting heaven with neither punctuation nor interest. We can tell Wallace is trying to gild the plot with poignant and sentimental details, but trying counts only for so much. Truth is, his effort to make the story inflammatory metamorphoses what should be a touching film into a religious pamphlet. The script may be devoid of thought, but the acting definitely strikes a chord. Oscar-nominee Kinnear is able to communicate real humanity through his electrifying performance.

Strikingly capturing Todd’s contradictions in struggle, Kinnear showcases his ability to ooze warmth and wisdom as a preacher and father, but his hesitation and hovering in dilemma is even more resonating and compelling. Much of Todd’s turmoil comes from people’s fear of believing. As the core character, 4-yearold Colton is adorable enough to melt every audience’s heart. Given his age, we believe Corum is acting with sincerity. But we can still predict the blossom of his future career through his successful characterization in this film. Wallace’s thematic vagueness and grandiose reach are sophomoric. He pinpoints a sore spot. We all think we should have a better life if heaven is for real. So if it really exists, why can a boy see it while most of us can’t? The answer, Todd Burpo says, is that “Only faith opens our eyes.” BY WENWEN TANG
