Delta Chi accused of hazing

By Christine Stephenson cistephe@iu.edu | @cistephenson23

The IU chapter of Delta Chi has been suspended, IU spokesperson Chuck Carney confirmed.

The chapter was suspended by the university Friday due to violations of the IU student code of conduct and the Greek Agreement regarding hazing, Carney said in an email.

Members of the chapter must stop all organizational activity and disband as a recognized student organization, Carney said.

The chapter’s annual philanthropy, Miss Greek IU, was set for March 31. The event is no longer happening, Theta Phi Alpha contestant Stephanie Curry said.

Delta Chi is not the first suspended chapter at IU this school year.

The entrance doors to the underground system of tunnels are tucked away in plain sight on campus. Though the tunnels are physically unsafe for people to travel, there are numerous videos online of people venturing into them.

IU sweeps Michigan State over weekend

Are there tunnels under IU?

By Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @anabelaguiar

A reader asked: “Are the tunnels under IU real or not?”

The answer is yes, they are.

If you’re walking on campus, there’s a chance you’re walking over a complex underground tunnel system that most people at IU will never see.

The tunnels were created for utility purposes, and there are now 618,000 cubic feet of utility tunnels running underneath campus.

The tunnels are physically unsafe for would-be wanderers, said now-retired IU Physical Plant engineer Jeff Kaden in a 2007 Indiana Daily Student article.

3-0

By Jared Kelly jaakelly@iu.edu

On the heels of a four-game losing skid, IU softball entered this weekend desperately in search of its opportunistic bats and quality pitching. Both of those showed up in a big way.

IU had its conference home opener this weekend by welcoming Michigan State to Andy Mohr Field for a three-game series. At stake was a much needed confidence boost, as well as a chance to gain key wins in the early stages of conference play.

Initially, it looked like IU’s recent struggles had carried over to game one with Michigan State tacking on two early runs and a grand slam to take a 6-0 lead through four innings.

But it was only a matter of time before IU channeled the lion mentality that Head Coach Shonda Stanton has emphasized consistently throughout the season.

Senior infielder Sarah Galovich got the scoring started for IU with a run-scoring single, her first of three runs batted in on the day.

Two batters later, sophomore center fielder Taylor Lambert cleared the bases with a deep triple to right center, one of two triples on the weekend for the leadoff hitter, cutting Michigan State’s lead to just two runs.

“I knew I needed to barrel up the ball. I’ve been struggling lately and my whole focus was just barreling up the ball,” Lambert said.

The Hoosiers would eventually bat around the lineup, scoring eight more runs in an inning that saw 12 runners cross the plate. Altogether, 10 different IU players scored a run in the game and five different players had multi-hit performances, taking game one, 13-8, over Michigan State.

tremely dangerous and are in no ways meant for pedestrian use,” he said. “It’s extremely hot, and the air is full of asbestos. There are sharp corners of piping and support. There are some places where the piping isn’t even covered, and you could easily get burns or other injuries.”

The tunnels carry resources such as electricity and chilled water for air conditioning throughout campus.

Most of the tunnels underground are used for steam to travel from heating plants to on-campus buildings, with 75 percent of IU’s academic buildings heated through the Central Heating Plant on North Walnut Grove Street, according to the IU Energy Management and Utilities

website.

It’s hot in the tunnels, too.

Because of the steam, some areas can reach temperatures of 286 degrees.

“It scares me, and I go down there as little as possible,” Kaden said in the 2007 article.

If you’ve ever seen a manhole billowing smoke on campus, you can thank the tunnels, according to Mark Menefee, assistant director of utility services at IU Facility Operations.

When it rains, water percolates and collects at limestone, which doesn’t let water go through it. The water flows underground until it enters a steam tunnel, and the extreme heat turns it into the steam that billows from man-

Two chairs sit in a small room crowded with audio equipment. A trumpet is set up on a stand on the floor next to a folding table with a MacBook on it. The walls are covered with noise-muffling black foams pads, posters of Thelonious Monk and the Newport Jazz Festival and a signed Mac Miller record.

This is where local rapper Adam Williams, who performs under the stage name nochilliams, records. It’s the home studio of his self-taught producer, Logan Reeves.

Vision wins IU Student Government election

By Jenna Williams jnw9@iu.edu | @jnwilliams18

Months of asking students about their visions for a better IU have seemingly paid off for student government executive ticket Vision.

IU will welcome Vision’s Isabel Mishkin as its next IU Student Government president.

Elections closed Thursday at 10 p.m., and the tickets were informed of the preliminary results shortly after.

The IUSG Election Commission confirmed that Vision received the most votes in a statement posted on its Facebook page Thursday night. They also congratulated the ticket and thanked the students who voted.

Only one complaint was submitted this year, a complaint filed against Bridge IU for the use of the IU trident and the IU letters in the ticket’s name — a stark contrast to past years. Tickets can file complaints against their opposition if they believe the election code has been violated.

Financial statements were due Friday, Election Commission Chair Hannah Eaton said. The statements are now available of the Election Commission website.

The Vision ticket consisted of juniors Isabel Mishkin, current IUSG chief of staff, and Matt Stein, current chief of diversity and inclusion.

“I am so incredibly proud of my team,” Mishkin said.

“None of this is possible without the love and support and passion of the entire Vision team.”

The team laid out 39 policies during the campaign.

The campaign focused on the embodiment of student values and expertise.

“We’re beyond thrilled to start serving the students and dive into our work,” Mishkin said.

Some of Vision’s policies can be implemented within the first month of its term, including monthly IUSG town halls in an effort to make student government more transparent, Mishkin said.

Bridge IU is also grate-

Following the aftermath of the allegations against Barge

By Caroline Anders anders6@iu.edu | @clineands

Following the Indiana Daily Student breaking accusations of sexual harassment against county commissioner Amanda Barge last week, uncertainties about Bloomington’s mayoral election and more have arisen.

A former county contractor, Brandon Drake, came forward with allegations that Barge sexually harassed him for more than a year.

Since the story broke, Barge and her campaign have not responded to multiple requests for comment from the IDS. Here’s what happened next.

Mayoral campaign suspended Less than 24 hours after the story broke, Barge announced she would suspend her mayoral campaign in a

Facebook post.

The Facebook account where the announcement was posted has since been deleted along with the rest of Barge’s campaign social media.

What this means for the election Barge’s name will still appear on ballots, according to the Indiana Election Division.

She could still win the mayoral primary.

Since she suspended her campaign instead of withdrawing from the race, she could choose to start campaigning again at any time.

If Barge wins the primary, she would have until July 15 to withdraw from the November municipal election ballot.

Bloomington responds Local political groups and individuals have responded to the allegations against Barge in various ways.

The Monroe County Legal Department released a statement Thursday evening on behalf of the county commissioners and the health department. The statement detailed Drake’s work with both entities.

The six-page statement did not directly address any allegations that Barge sexually harassed Drake.

Bloomington Mayor John Hamilton released a statement Tuesday that read, “Brandon Drake showed courage in coming forward to report a disturbing pattern of behavior that he suffered.”

The Democratic Women’s Caucus, which endorsed Barge’s campaign about two weeks ago, withdrew its endorsement Thursday.

The Monroe County Democratic Party released a statement saying it was “disheartened and upset” in light of the allegations

against Barge.

The statement said the county party’s leadership is working to organize an event on sexual harassment and abuse of power.

Black Lives Matter Bloomington also posted a statement on its Facebook page in support of Drake.

“This article is a detailed account of a deeply abusive white woman politician who has used her position, political power and white womanhood as a weapon,” the statement read.

What this means for the county commissioners Barge told Indiana Public Media she will not resign from her seat on the Monroe County Board of Commissioners.

Under Indiana law, county officers — including county commissioners — "are liable to impeachment for any misdemeanor in office.”

It is not clear whether she

committed a misdemeanor while in office.

Barge was absent from Wednesday’s meeting of the Monroe County Board of Commissioners. The board did not address the allegations.

Brandon Drake reacts Drake said the response he’s received since the article published has been mostly positive, with a few exceptions.

“I’ll go out on a limb and say 90 percent of the community is speaking out against what happened to me,” Drake said. “Overwhelmingly, I’ve felt loved by this community.”

He said he’s ashamed of the county and Barge’s responses to the story and thinks they would’ve made different statements if he were a woman.

Drake said it also upsets him to see people saying he

came forward with his allegations for political reasons.

He said that’s ridiculous because he’s never supported Hamilton.

He also said he doesn’t want to see anyone hurt in this, even Barge. He said he hopes the people who are attacking him will redirect their energy toward making sure she gets the help she needs.

Out of all of this, Drake said he hopes Bloomington and Monroe County will draft new laws to protect independent contractors from sexual harassment.

“You’re the progressive, shining light city on the hill in Indiana,” Drake said.

“Change the laws.”

He said it’s important to him that if and when those conversations happen, independent contractors and those who have been affected by sexual harassment have a seat at the table.

City divided over Fourth Street garage City council hopeful withdraws

By Lilly St. Angelo

lstangel@iu.edu | @lilly_st_ang

About 20 people made public comments at Bloomington City Council’s Wednesday meeting to reconsider replacing the Fourth Street parking garage. The estimate for the repairs to the garage increased by about $300,000 in a February assessment.

The decision to either fix the garage or replace it has polarized the council and community because of its prominence to Bloomington’s downtown businesses as well its impacts in the eyes of local environmental activists.

On Dec. 19, after over a month of discussion, the city council voted down the city’s $18.5 million plan to demolish and rebuild the garage, choosing instead to support a $1.1 million plan to repair it. The repairs will make the structure last another five years. After five years, the council would reassess the need for the garage.

An evaluation last month determined repairs will now cost $1.4 million because the garage had deteriorated significantly between May 2018 and February. Including all construction and inspection costs, the estimate is actually $1.6 million, according to city documents.

The garage has been closed since the beginning of January.

Local business owners at the meeting Wednesday argued rebuilding the garage was crucial for their customers to participate in the local economy. Residents who live outside of the downtown area expressed concern about finding parking when going downtown if the garage is not replaced.

A sign informs Bloomington residents that the Fourth Street Parking Garage is closed. The garage is closed due to structural issues.

Commerce, said 178 businesses and organizations signed a petition in support of a rebuild. She said two businesses are considering moving out of downtown if the garage is not rebuilt.

“We need to you to build a garage so our visitors feel welcome, our businesses feel welcome,” Predmore said.

Geoff McKim, a Monroe County Council member, argued that if the garage was taken away, consumers may take their cars and their business elsewhere, harming downtown establishments and not limiting carbon emissions.

Others strongly opposed the rebuilding of the the garage. Many were young adults concerned about climate change.

Matt Flaherty and Kate Rosenbarger, both city council candidates, talked about letting the market decide in the next five years whether replacing the garage is necessary.

“If the market demanded it, private businesses would build it,” Rosenbarger said.

Rosenbarger said she also wants the council to look at parking more comprehen-

sively in the future and not one garage at a time.

City council candidate Daniel Bingham pointed out that Bloomington Transit’s 2017 budget was $10.3 million, but it would take $18.5 million to replace the garage.

Bingham has been adamant about the importance of phasing out car usage since the December meetings about the garage.

Ron Walker, chairman of the board of the Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce and local property manager, talked about tenants with mobility problems and business owners who have suffered from the Fourth Street garage being closed.

Council member Allison Chopra said she has always been able to find parking when she goes downtown for entertainment and meetings.

“I really think there is a perception and reality problem,” Chopra said.

Council member Dave Rollo was in favor of the rebuild. He said he is also concerned about the environment, but he thinks downtown businesses will move to the outskirts of the city

and build large parking lots there if the parking garage is not replaced. He said this would create urban sprawl.

Council member Andy Ruff said he was unsure because of the complexity of the issue. He is concerned about car usage, but he said he sees the garage as an important piece of infrastructure for the area.

Council member Chris Sturbaum is in support of the garage being rebuilt and does not see it negatively impacting the environment.

“City greenways — all about them. Climate change — totally against it,” Sturbaum said. “But this is not about that.”

Council member Isabel Piedmont-Smith disagreed.

“I disagree vehemently with my fellow council members that say this isn’t about climate change,” PiedmontSmith said. “This is about climate change.”

She also encouraged business owners to talk to her about other solutions.

“Everyone says, ‘We need parking, we need parking,’” she said. “The human race needs a reduction of greenhouse gases."

Jim Blickensdorf, who was running as a District 3 Bloomington city council candidate, dropped out of the race Wednesday afternoon, according to a statement on his campaign website.

“I’ve chosen to conclude my campaign for city council and will return to private life,” he said in the statement.

“I remain committed to our community and will continue to seek ways to serve the greater good as a private citizen. If selected, I will not

accept the primary nomination for District 3 and will defer to the party leadership to choose a qualified nominee.”

His announcement comes four days after an article in the Herald-Times revealed Blickensdorf’s slippery purchase of a Bedford strip club, his failure to make payments on the business and his hiring of underage dancers. All information was found in court documents.

In Blickensdorf’s statement, he thanked the community for support and for its continued advocacy for Democratic causes.

SAE supports brother who suffered brain injury

By Christine Stephenson cistephe@iu.edu | @cistephenson23

Sophomore Max Shores felt a bad headache coming on.

It was nothing a little Kroger chocolate milk — the best kind of milk— and Ibuprofen couldn’t fix, he thought. But when he tried to get out of bed to get them, he fell. His roommate fetched the glass of milk, but Shores couldn’t grab it with his left hand because it was too shaky.

The next thing he remembers is waking up in a hospital bed with his family staring at him. He would soon learn he had a brain bleed similar to a stroke.

“I was like, ‘Woah, what?’” he recalled.

This was Dec. 7. Since then, Shores has been rehabilitating, attending support groups and doing anything he can to try and feel normal again. And nothing helps him feel more normal than spending time with his brothers in Sigma Alpha Epsilon, he said.

“I freaking love those dudes,” he said. “They’re what gets me through.”

Without the help of his brothers, Shores might have had worse injuries or died that

Sophomore Max Shores had a brain bleed in December 2018. Shores now lives at home and his Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity brothers are raising funds to offset medical bills through GoFundMe and a philanthropy event in April.

night in December.

Earlier in the evening, he had been studying with his girlfriend at the library. He noticed the headache once he got home. Then he fell out of bed.

Brett Wainscott, SAE chapter president and one of Shore’s best friends, said he initially thought Shores was drunk.

Wainscott took him to the hospital anyway. He said he

had a feeling something bad might happen if they didn’t.

“Frats get a bad rap of waiting and seeing,” he said. “I didn’t want to be one of those people.”

After a CT scan showed an anteriovenous malformation — a tangle of abnormal blood vessels in his brain — had ruptured, and he was airlifted to IU Health Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis.

When the rest of the broth-

ers found out in Bloomington the next day, the house fell silent.

“No one was talking,” SAE member Matt Ficalora said.

“The mood is usually the exact opposite.”

Once winter break hit, Shores said brothers visited him just about every day.

Wainscott said he remembers Shores’ parents renting out a hospital room and ordering pizza so they all could

watch the NFL Playoffs together.

Shores went home to Fishers, Indiana, Feb. 5. Now his days include up to eight hours of therapy.

Mornings always start with physical therapy to strengthen his left side. Then he might go into speech therapy, which he calls “brain games.” Then he might move onto occupational therapy, where patients relearn to do practical things like tie their shoes.

Shores also attends a support group with three other patients effected by brain injuries. He said he enjoys spending time with them, but some are in worse shape than he is.

“I wouldn’t say I’m lucky necessarily,” Shores said with a laugh. “But I’m thankful I wasn’t affected as cognitively.”

Although Shores is working to get back to his normal self, he said it takes a long time for the brain to heal. And his family’s insurance company does not understand that, he said.

“They see that I’m walking, so they don’t think I need more physical therapy,” he said. “They think I’m good enough to go to school, but I’m not.”

His family now has to cov-

er expenses out-of-pocket. To help offset his medical bills, his brothers helped get the word out about a GoFundMe, which raised more than $33,000.

Additionally, instead of a traditional philanthropy this spring to raise money for an organization, the chapter decided to raise money for Shores. The event, called “Munchin’ with Max,” will be April 6.

Shores plans to return to IU next semester, where he will continue to study computer science. In the meantime, he is working to get his driver’s license back so he can drive himself down from his home in Fishers, Indiana, to visit campus.

Wainscott said he can’t wait to have his best friend back so he can continue taking videos of him dancing at parties, something that Shores said he misses badly.

“He’s a horrible dancer,” Wainscott said, smirking.

Shores said he is using the goal of going back to school — and being with his brothers every day again — as motivation to continue his therapy.

“They meant a ton to me before this,” he said. “But now every single one of them means the world to me.”

Man arrested for child porn A 19-year-old Bloomington man was arrested Thursday for the alleged possession of pornographic images of children.

Bloomington Police Department detectives received a tip March 6 and started investigating images found on a website, Bloomington Police Department Sgt. Shane Rasche said.

Detectives received information March 8 that allowed them to trace the account back to Johnny Hunt. Detectives also found his home address.

After being issued a search warrant March 28, detectives met with Hunt at his home and found a laptop and flash drive in his bedroom.

Both the flash drive and his phone had pornographic images of children 12 years old or younger on them, Rasche said.

Hunt was arrested on the preliminary charge of child exploitation.

Shots fired on Kirkwood Shots were fired around 2 a.m. Friday morning in an alleyway near Kirkwood Stacks in the 400 block of East Kirkwood Avenue, according to the Bloomington Police Department.

Police found several bullet casings at the scene, which was a few blocks from Sample Gates.

Police were told while investigating that a 23-year-old man checked into the emergency room at IU Health Bloomington Hospital for a leg gunshot wound. The man is reportedly in stable condition.

Detectives are investigating the incident, according

Xbox items, cash stolen An Xbox One, two Xbox One controllers, 20 Xbox games and $30 in cash were reported stolen Friday from a home on East Seventh Street, Bloomington Police Department Sgt. Shane Rasche said.

The value of the stolen items and cash add up to more than $1,600, police said.

The crime likely happened between 11:30 a.m. and 3:45 p.m., police said.

The 65-year-old homeowner called police around 4 p.m.

The glass on a rear door of the house was smashed in. The broken glass was on the floor, and some of the glass left in the frame had blood on it. Police said they collected the glass for evidence.

Rasche said police are currently investigating and looking for suspects.

Burger assault A McDonald’s employee is being charged with assault after allegedly throwing a cheeseburger at another employee.

Bloomington Police Department Lt. John Kovach said the 21-year-old employee who threw the cheeseburger said an 18-year-old employee was arguing with him about working too slowly. The two work at the East Third Street McDonald’s.

The 21-year-old told police he finished making a burger and threw it to the side to the 18-year-old who was bagging food when the yellow-wrapped cheeseburger hit his head.

The employee who was hit in the face by the burger told police she was not hurt from it, but wanted to press charges.

IU graduate student Matt Peisen, 30, is gay and Catholic. His whole life, he has struggled to reconcile his faith and sexuality.

“For a long time, I thought I was defective,” he said. “I have lost friends for being a queer person.”

He only started living openly gay two and a half years ago when he came to IU. “God wants us to welcome and love everybody, and queer people are a part of everyone,” Peisen said.

He said as he began to accept himself, he found it easier to welcome others.

A few months ago, a friend referred him to an LGBTQ fellowship event through the St. Paul Catholic Center. Every fourth Thursday since last August, this group has gotten together for the event, called Food + Fellowship, at a different person’s house to eat and discuss their lives. Peisen has been attending the event since the beginning.

Peisen started going and said he feels welcomed and comfortable.

“It’s humbling that people, complete strangers, would go through the trouble of making this group, serving food, welcoming people into their homes,” Peisen said.

The presence of like-

minded groups at other churches in Bloomington spurred co-founder Cate Racek and her sister’s decision to start the event last August.

“Our intent was really to just be welcoming and safe,” said Racek, a parishioner at St. Paul’s.

She said many people have come up to her and said they’re glad the group exists and that it’s about time.

The event brings people together grows and more people each month come to the meals, Racek, said.

She said many students who have attended the meals have told her how grateful they are for her group and how welcome they feel.

“Just a small little thing went a long way,” Racek said.

She decided to make dinners the focal point of the event because she remembered her college days being lit up by meals outside of a residence hall, Racek said.

“To go to someone’s home, I think, is special,” she said. The church’s pastor, Father John Meany, encouraged the group and often attends the meals, Racek said.

Many people come as allies to the community.

“We’re gonna start here, in our parish and in our community,” Racek said.

Natalia Johnson, junior, is gay and exploring Catholicism. She said she started learning more about the reli-

gion because of her friends in high school and her partner.

The St. Paul group made her feel safe and welcome while she was there, Johnson said.

“I feel more confident about being in this space,” she said. “I feel like I’m supposed to be there.”

Attending St. Paul Catholic Center has taught her not to equate religion with hatred or with fear, she said.

She said she’s learned to be more accepting of other viewpoints and has always felt loved.

Johnson said the group holds a special spot in her heart.

“For me, it’s a second family,” Johnson said.

JONAH’S JUSTIFICATIONS

Socialism and capitalism can both be utilized in our economic system Jonah Hyatt is a sophomore in philosophy and political science.

The dialogue in the country since the rise of more leftleaning politicians has been approaching candidates and their platforms as rigidly socialist versus capitalist when this is the wrong way to be viewing politics.

With more progressive politicians such as Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. and U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, DN.Y. on the rise, many people are asking themselves what things like democratic socialism are and whether socialism is taking over the political left.

Although politicians like Sanders claim they are democratic socialists, it is quite apparent the wave of “further left” voters and politicians are actually more akin to social democrats rather than socialism.

Democratic socialism is postcapitalist and pursues communal ownership of land and capital within a democratic system. Social democracy seeks to work within the capitalist system.

Social democrats are in favor of a mixed economy, meaning a capitalist economy but with some socialized institutions as well. They want equality of opportunity, but not necessarily equality of outcome.

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, a Democratic candidate for president, speaks at a campaign rally March 22 at Waterfront Park in San Diego.

This is the Scandinavian model that democratic socialists like Sanders push for.

Social democracy is not socialism, it is capitalism with socialist elements.

Although now it seems that democratic socialism in the U.S. is synonymous with social democracy in terms of ideology, it is important not

to conflate the progressive left’s platform with flat out socialism. Political definitions change and they can be misleading, so it is important to understand a politician’s platform before jumping to the conclusion that they’re a “socialist.”

The debate should not be limited to distinctly capital-

ism or socialism, but as Kevin Williamson described in the National Review: “The real debate concerns the structure, balance, and integration of the elements that make up our political economy.”

In a mixed economy, it is important to note that socialist and capitalist elements work together to find a bal-

ance of competition and social safety nets.

There are certain areas of the economy that need to be socialized, such as police, but there are also others that should be left to the free market to spur competition and diversity, like designing shoes.

A key part of recognizing what markets should be more

socialist and what should be more capitalist is knowing the incentive structure. For example, markets such as health care have a corrupting profitdriven incentive structure that if left entirely to the free market would make it near impossible to find quality, affordable health care for everyone in society. Therefore, the health care market needs to be more socialized.

So, when progressives call for a “Medicare for All” system to be implemented, that is not to say they are “socialists,” but really it is to say they understand the corrupting nature of the profit motive in that market.

I think it was a mistake on the part of Sanders and other self-proclaimed “democratic socialists” on the left to call themselves democratic socialists at all.

It is not true to their political beliefs and it has left them open to constant smearing by political opponents, giving them the opportunity to unfairly say people like Sanders are true socialists.

Nevertheless, social democracy has a very broad appeal to both the left and the right and regardless of what left progressives call themselves, I think their message will resonate throughout the country. hyattj@iu.edu

Jaclyn Ferguson is a sophomore in journalism.

Stuyvesant High School is a prestigious school in New York City that is known to be highly selective.

Last week, the public was made aware that this elite school selected only seven black students out of 895 spots. That equates to .8 percent.

Although we should not base a whole issue off of a school, this instance brings up one glaring question: How far have we come in combating segregated school systems?

In 1954, Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka ruled segregated educational facilities unconstitutional because it violates the protections of the Equal Protection Clause in the Fourteenth Amendment. This Supreme Court ruling was quintessential in the ongoing fight for civil rights.

But as American history has unfortunately proven, laws put into place do not always reflect actions of the government.

Although the ruling was more than 60 years ago, Americans still deal with segregated school systems and

a lack of equality of opportunity in education.

Having unequal access to an adequate education has detrimental impacts on lowincome and high-minority socioeconomic regions. This phenomenon is a starting point to many of the inequalities minorities experience which begin at childhood.

After World War II, suburban lifestyle boomed, but black Americans experienced a great deal of housing and residential inequalities. These blatant inequalities transcended into educational disparities.

Highways were built to separate high income, suburban neighborhoods and minority neighborhoods. Roads and highways were slapped in the middle of black communities and were often considered “white roads through black bedrooms.”

Nowadays people are thankful for the ability of highways to cut down transportation time drastically.

But in reality, they were just another way to create racial segregation.

Additionally, the housing segregation led to stark educational differences based on socioeconomic locations.

Segregation of school dis-

tricts creates isolation and a lack in diversity of social interaction during crucial developmental periods. Students in predominantly lowincome areas are not able to have access to as many opportunities due to this isolation from other demographic groups.

According to a study done by the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University, 40 percent of black and 32 percent of Hispanic children are likely to live in a low-opportunity neighborhood. In contrast, three percent of black and four percent of Hispanic students are likely to live in a very high-opportunity area.

This highlights the obvious differences we see in the equality of opportunity today.

Students often become constrained in their thinking and are unable to tap into their true potential. They are also exposed to less resources whether it be textbooks, technology or other factors that people take for granted every day.

Additionally, college recruiters are less likely to go to low-income schools. In turn, students receive less exposure to the benefits of higher education.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, those with a four-year college degree on average make a median weekly salary of $1,137 while those with a high school diploma make an average of $678.

Essentially, it is a ripple effect. These students who are less likely to go to college are less likely to have financial stability. Increasing access to quality school systems can help break the wealth gap seen too often.

It is unfair that the system has placed students in a debilitating cycle that makes it difficult to escape poverty and financial struggles. It is clear that change is necessary when the youth today is still being harmed by racist policies and ideas from decades, and even centuries ago.

Education is a key to escape poverty, but how can that be a useful tool when many don’t have access to education and are not properly prepared for higher education?

To quote Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, “Until we reach equality in education, we can’t reach equality in the larger society.” jaraferg@iu.edu

THE SKILES FILES

Should we have a meltdown about nuclear energy?

Michael Skiles is a sophomore in cinema and media arts.

The world is incredibly demanding when it comes to energy. Many continue pushing for clean energy that is effective, and nuclear energy is a great option since it’s highly efficient and produces little pollution.

This conversation is no longer as black and white as it once was. Scientific developments have made nuclear energy a viable option. Still, many people fear the effects of nuclear energy, especially after nuclear tragedies.

One positive aspect of nuclear energy is its cost efficiency. It does take a sizable amount of money to build and maintain nuclear power plants, but it’s still a cheaper option when compared to energy from coal, oil and gas. In particular, it’s much cheaper than green energy gained from renewable resources. Solar energy, for example, is one of the most expensive sources out there.

Surprisingly enough, nuclear energy creates much less pollution than most energy sources in use today. In fact, the environment would

benefit greatly if many of our energy sources were replaced by nuclear power plants. Coal releases much more pollution into the air.

The more nuclear plants we build, the less coal plants we need. This results in less pollution being released into the air.

Now, this doesn’t mean nuclear energy creates absolutely no pollution. It still produces nuclear waste, but it’s just not as polluting as other sources.

Another aspect that is extremely important is whether nuclear energy is considered renewable. In short, it’s not. There is a finite amount of fuel for nuclear reactors in the world.

It would take a decently long time to deplete these nuclear resources. At the current rate of consumption, the world’s supply of economically accessible uranium will run dry in about 230 years.

However, if scientists uncover the secrets of nuclear fusion, the very atomic interactions that power our sun, the energy we receive will be practically how likely it is.

Naturally, nuclear en-

ergy poses a great threat to national security. The more we develop nuclear energy, the more it becomes available to the world. This can lead to nuclear assets being possessed by corrupt leaders who would potentially turn them into weapons.

Then, there are terrorists who would aim to target these power plants in order to inflict massive damage to the area and its inhabitants.

They can cause this damage at numerous points in the nuclear energy process — from the uranium mines all the way to the nuclear reactors themselves.

It’s true, tragedies can happen. The effects of these tragedies can still be seen in Fukushima and Chernobyl to this day. Earthquakes, tsunamis and human error are all part of this world, and they’re bound to occur at one point or another.

Personally, I believe nuclear energy is a viable and effective option. The world demands energy now more than ever, and we’re only going to demand more and more. The world needs energy, and, when done right, nuclear energy can equally provide without as much

pollution as other energy sources.

Admittedly, nuclear waste isn’t the best byproduct of this method, but it is certainly less threatening than the waste that other energy sources render.

When it comes to potential terrorist attacks, all we can do is tighten security and maintain a close eye on our power plants. If we refuse to progress to greater technological advancements because we’re afraid of terrorists, then they win.

Technological advancement naturally comes at a cost. When people began using electricity, buildings would sometimes become engulfed in flames due to electrical fires. If we would’ve stopped using electricity because a few places were destroyed, then we’d still be living in the Dark Ages. All throughout history, mankind has always taken leaps of faith in order to achieve greater heights.

Sure, nuclear energy seems daunting, but we would be wrong to stifle ourselves out of fear. msskiles@iu.edu

Rachel Noll is a sophomore in journalism, Spanish and nonprofit management.

If you’re in an unconventional major, which could be anything from theater and drama to history, you’ve probably gotten those disapproving looks from your family members when you tell them what you’re studying at Thanksgiving dinner each year.

You’ve gotten the “What kind of job can you get with that?” and the “Do they make good money?” questions.

What’s worse than getting these questions from family members? Receiving those same types of comments from fellow students. Maybe they usually aren’t as direct as that, but with IU having many options to study a wide variety of topics from chemistry all the way to gender studies, I see it happen time after time.

It could be anywhere from someone always trying to one-up you with their problems, saying how much more difficult their assignment is than yours or how much more time-consuming the assignment they’re working on is.

It often could also be generalizing a whole school at IU, saying that the students in those schools take blowoff classes and are just trying to get a diploma. In reality, a majority of the people in those classes are passionate about their life plans and the classes they sit in everyday.

One thing you will learn while being at IU is that everywhere you look there are passionate kids. However, something I’ve noticed is that the students who don’t receive the kind of support and enthusiasm at home from their family members need it from the people on this campus. There is no right or wrong area of study, and the uniqueness of our options here is what makes going to IU such a rewarding experience. You can be sitting on the bus in between two people with completely different interests, but they’re

both able to pursue them at the same university.

While I most definitely won’t discredit students who are in very challenging courses in the Kelley School of Business or are going down a premed track, I most definitely don’t feel bad for the amount of work they have to do or the difficult classes they must take. They chose that path, just like liberal arts majors chose theirs.

However, I will listen to them complain about their lab assignment all the same.

People just want their worries and annoyances to be heard, and every student deserves to have that with his or her peers. Complaining about it won’t change anything, but you can’t deny that sometimes, if even for a moment, it makes you feel better.We all know K201: The Computer in Business is hard and so is organic chemistry, hence why many people decide not to go down those paths.

People who choose to study media deal with issues far different than those in a premed track, and while a biology class may be difficult in a way that a media class isn’t, a media class is difficult in a way that a biology class isn’t.

The way I see it is not everyone can be a STEM or business major. That’s just not how it works. On the opposite end of the spectrum, not everyone can be an education or an English major.

Each major, area of study and occupation will contribute to society in different ways, and there is money in anything if you look hard enough.

Something that may be difficult for someone else may not be difficult for you and vice versa. This is important to keep in mind when you throw around phrases like “That’s so easy.” We should be building each other up, not tearing each other down.

It’s true what they say: Your peers of today could very well end up being your colleagues of tomorrow. racnoll@iu.edu

Independent announces mayoral candidacy

By Lilly St. Angelo lstangel@iu.edu | @lilly_st_ang

In Nile Arena’s opinion, an election isn’t an election without a little competition.

After Amanda Barge suspended her campaign for the Bloomington mayoral race, Arena, 30, announced his run as an independent against unopposed incumbent John Hamilton. Arena had planned to run as an independent even before Barge dropped out of the race.

To be on the ballot in November, Arena will need at least 522 signatures on a petition by July 1, according to Monroe County Election Supervisor Karen Wheeler.

Arena has no political experience but has seen his fair share of government meetings as a master controller at Community Access Television, which streams and records city and county government meetings among other content. He said what he knows about local politics has inspired him to do more.

“Participatory democracy is for everyone,” Arena said.

“If you’re able to do more, why not try? And maybe I can inspire someone to do this that is better and smarter than me.”

Laura Stockwell, a friend of Arena’s and member of the improv comedy group he’s in, “Fabuloso,” said Arena is one of the smartest and self-driven people she knows.

“Nile is a Bloomington guy,” Stockwell said. “He truly knows what’s going on.”

Arena said he was inspired by the story of Philadelphia District Attorney

TY VINSON | IDS

Nile Arena is running for mayor of Bloomington as an independent candidate. Arena decided to announce he was running after Amanda Barge suspended her campaign, but he had been planning to run well before then.

Larry Krasner, who ran for district attorney as a defense lawyer with no prosecuting experience and won. Krasner ran on a progressive platform including eliminating mass incarceration and police misconduct.

The story made Arena question if pedigrees really matter. Arena decided to run for mayor to address the “lopsided” growth he sees in Bloomington, concerns about the rising cost of living and the urgency of climate change in a collaborative way.

“Over the past four years, some of the things that make Bloomington so special have

been disappearing,” he said.

Arena recalled Player’s Pub, Yogi’s Grill and Bar, Rhino’s All Ages Music Club, and the Void are all recently shut down local restaurants, bars and music venues that represent some of the losses in local businesses and charm, especially in the arts community.

“Growth is good,” Arena said. “But only if it’s balanced and if we don’t give up some virtues of Bloomington all in the name of growth.”

He said lopsided growth is seen as housing costs rise, incomes stay well below the national average and small businesses struggle to sur-

vive.

Arena grew up in Bloomington and left to go to Columbia College in Chicago where he got his bachelor’s in theatre. He has returned to Bloomington a few times, most recently in 2016. Arena has held a variety of jobs including working at a theater in Philadelphia, teaching kids acting and improv, working at university libraries, including IU Libraries and working in bookstores in Chicago and New York.

“I think a lot of people my age, we graduated during the Great Recession and held a lot of different jobs,” Arena said.

The constant challenge of holding and changing jobs is a theme Arena has seen affecting his generation.

He said he wants to make Bloomington a place of stability for people his age by addressing overall quality of life and affordability for young adults.

Sam Torneo, 29, is a coworker of Arena’s at Community Access Television.

He said he sees a lack of representation of his age group in local government. He said Arena would be a good representative and an inspiration for others to engage in government to make change.

“Even him participating in

the election is an attentiongetter,” Torneo said.

Since he has returned to Bloomington, Arena has moved multiple times farther out from the center of town to find housing he can afford.

The cost of food, childcare and leisure also concern him.

“If we’re working hard and gosh, we’re not in Los Angeles or Manhattan, we should live with some dignity in Bloomington, Indiana,” Arena said.

Besides working at CATS and doing improv with Fabuloso, Arena helps run Cicada Cinema, a pop-up cinema in Bloomington that shows independent and underseen films.

Another issue Arena said he would prioritize as mayor is climate change. He compared his vision of creating a more self-sustaining community as moving into the fast lane.

“We’re trying to pass that really slow Dodge Caravan on the road to progress,” he said.

Arena said he wants a moratorium placed on development that do not meet certain environmental standards, city-wide compost pickup and more grants for businesses and groups to increase their sustainable practices.

He said the community and creative spirit of Bloomington is what made him come back in 2016. Preserving the feeling of community and creativity in Bloomington is one of the driving forces of his run for mayor.

“If you like something and you have the time and energy, it’s kind of your job to keep it alive,” Arena said.

IU educators respond to active shooter training incident

By Julia Locanto jlocanto@iu.edu | @julialocanto

During active-shooter training at Meadowlawn Elementary School in Monticello, Indiana, teachers were shot with plastic pellets and bruised, according to a press release. Now, the incident has been brought to the Statehouse by the Indiana State Teachers Association.

Testimony given to the state last week confirmed teachers were told to kneel on the ground and were then shot with plastic pellets from an airsoft gun. Teachers vol-

unteered to participate but were not aware they would be shot at. It occurred in January with the White County Sheriff ’s Department.

The Indiana State Teachers Association is attempting to adjust a school safety bill in the Statehouse to prevent ammunition from being used in shooting training.

The White County Sheriff ’s Department stated that airsoft guns will no longer be used in training, according to a press release.

ISTA Official Barbara Deardorff said in a press release the training was not

conducted as it should have been.

An Indiana House Bill requires schools to have active shooter drills once a year, but does not require any specific training. Gail Zeheralis, director of government relations for ISTA, testified to Indiana lawmakers March 20, stating that the ISTA suggests amendments to the bill.

At the IU School of Education, faculty work to prepare future educators to handle school safety issues.

However, Dan Melnick, associate director of professional

community programs, said the school does not have any explicit training for school shooting incidents.

“We have offered hostile intruder training workshops and had an all-day event focused on school safety last October,” Melnick said. “But we don’t have any specific programming.”

Each elementary school has its own safety protocol, so the IU School of Education maintains a more general safety training. Melnick said active shooter training is part of a broader issue.

“Training teachers to use

or avoid weapons is putting a Band-Aid on a much larger situation,” he said.

The training conducted at Meadowlawn Elementary School is called ALICE, for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate. The training is meant to show teachers how to be proactive in dangerous incidents, according to the ALICE website.

IU senior Emi Milukas, an education major who has participated in student teaching and field experience through the School of Education, said school safety is a constant concern in edu-

cation classes.

“We have talked a lot about procedures and how to talk about safety in our schools,” Milukas said. “This is definitely a concern of mine for my future career.”

Although IU does not offer detailed safety training for education majors, Melnick said it is not overlooked.

“It’s a very serious issue,” Melnick said. “Our goal is to train educators. It comes down to communication, and we are very open with our students. But there needs to be a much larger, in-depth approach to this.”

IU club Black and Bold explores intersection of communities

By Kaitlin Edquist kedquist@iu.edu | @kaitlinedquist

Black and Bold, one of IU’s newest student organizations, finds its home at the intersection of the black and LGBTQ communities at IU. The group became official in February, but it started in fall 2018 as a small weekly discussion group led by Jenifer Berry in the LGBTQ+ Culture Center.

Berry, who uses they/ them pronouns, is the lead academic adviser to IU’s 21st Century Scholars program. They said they noticed a need for the discussion group when students kept returning to them, a black member of the LGBTQ com-

munity, to talk about their experience as black LGBTQ students.

“I realized there may not be other places they’re going to talk,” they said.

Berry said black LGBTQ students may not always feel welcome to the LGBTQ+ Culture Center or the NealMarshall Black Culture Center. IU needed a space for the students who identify with both groups, Berry said.

“We’re wanting to bring those two spaces together so that everybody’s involved, everybody’s being educated and learning about each other,” they said.

When senior Deja McKenzie showed up to the discussion group that paved

the way for the Black and Bold club, dripping sweat from running across campus, Berry was the first person to greet her. McKenzie said she planned to leave after an hour, but she stayed for four.

“It was just nice having a place where you could come together and people understand where you’re coming from,” she said.

The small group continued to meet weekly and discuss issues affecting its participants as both black and LGBTQ students, including the stigma of being part of the intersectional community, Berry said.

Eventually the group realized it could become something bigger than weekly

small discussions, McKenzie said.

“There are so many of us on campus,” she said. “But we don’t know who each other is. And a lot of us don’t feel like we have a support system.”

Berry acts as faculty adviser for the group. McKenzie and graduate student Phillisha Wathen are the club’s student leaders.

The group is planning events and programs for the upcoming academic year, Berry said. It hopes to partner with other organizations on campus that are LGBTQbased or minority-based to discuss and bring awareness to issues such as relationships and dating, sexually

transmitted infections and domestic violence.

Some events are only for official members of the group who are black and LGBTQ, Berry said. But public fundraising events and some discussions are also open to students and faculty who identify as allies or partners in solidarity.

“A lot of our friends may not be black and LGBTQ+,” Wathen said. “But they’re still part of our existence, and they still make us being here at IU an enjoyable experience.”

Wathen pointed to her sticker that read “Black & Bold” in block lettering, the word “bold” designed with colors of the rainbow.

She said some AfricanAmerican students might not have had the space to explore the LGBTQ community growing up because of their religion or culture, and some students might not be out yet.

The group named itself “Black and Bold” rather than a title with LGBTQ because it hopes to be a space for those still exploring their identities, too, Wathen said.

“The whole bold aspect is an aspirational goal,” she said. “So when you wear the sticker, you want to get to the point where you can say, ‘I’m black LGBTQ+.’ But at the moment you’re just working on being bold and coming out.”

nels. “IU Tunnels Found Footage” on YouTube is a fictional docu-style parody about two students who allegedly go missing in the tunnels and document their journey through Snapchat stories.

The entrance doors to the tunnels are tucked away in

plain sight on campus. For ones in more wooded areas, dead leaves pile in front of the door.

“DANGER,” the sign on the door warns. “HIGH VOLTAGE.” Vivek Rao contributed reporting to this story.

Reeves and Williams say they formed a symbiotic relationship after working together since last summer.

“I write the rap, he makes the beats,” Williams said.

Reeves has been playing trumpet since sixth grade band class and started making beats in high school.

He was given a laptop with Ableton 8 already downloaded on it, a music production program popular with many DIY rap and hip hop artists.

“Nowadays kids are making music on the laptop, not just recording music on the laptop,” Reeves said.

But being prolific in the studio doesn’t mean Williams is very active in the live show scene.

Bloomington really champions the live band, Reeves said, and not many people will go out to see one guy rapping in a basement.

Reeves and Williams also said house shows seem to be more about the

alcohol than the music.

Reeves recounted a time when he hosted a show at his apartment, a night fueled by $1 shots that resulted in trashed and stolen property.

Williams said he feels his time is better spent making music in the studio or making meaningful connections with other musicians and fans.

When asked where he wants to take his music, Williams said he wants to gain respect for his art and make a living off it.

Williams also said he knows there must be hundreds of thousands of other rappers, but he just has to be better than the rest.

Some people don’t want to listen to local music or anything that isn’t on Spotify, he said.

Rapper Mac Miller is Williams’ hero. Williams says that when he listens to his music, it feels like he’s speaking to him. He wants to do that for other people and maybe gain some respect too.

“I made a promise to myself, like I gotta make this happen,” Williams said.

“This shit is all I got.”

Students, faculty divided over COAS speech class

By Christine Fernando ctfernan@iu.edu

Every day, senior D’Amani Hillman logs into Canvas and finds her class page for public oral communication. She begins to wade through a series of readings, mini lectures and quizzes.

Hillman then scrolls through lists of vocabulary words, memorizing rhetoric terms derived from Greek.

She makes her way through the terms “polis,” “dissensus” and “sophistry” before calling it a day with the five canons of rhetoric — invention, arrangement, style, delivery and memory.

The process takes her two to three hours each day.

“It’s basically the worst part of my day,” Hillman, an environmental and sustainability major, said.

P155: Public Oral Communication has become a punching bag among College of Arts and Sciences students who see the required course as a waste of time and credit hours. But professors argue the course offers necessary job skills and promotes civic engagement.

Student frustrations with the course often boil down to one key point of contention — a difference in what professors and students see as the purpose of a public speaking course. While professors use vocabulary terms and readings to create a theory-based course, many students are looking for practical public speaking skills, wanting to focus on posture, stance and tone of voice.

“I want to learn a skill,” Hillman said. “Not memorize words.”

IU’s College of Arts and Sciences is not alone in having a public speaking requirement. By 2006, over half of U.S. universities already required a public speaking course, according to a study published by Rouledge.

And the number has been climbing ever since, said John Arthos, an associate professor in English who teaches public oral communication.

Arthos said the course’s emphasis on civic engagement sets it apart from other universities that focus solely on delivery skills.

For Arthos, public speaking and theory go hand-in-hand. He said he sees his classroom not only as a place to learn the practical skill of public speaking but also a lab for democracy, where students learn to argue their political points, consider other perspectives and understand ethics.

While he recognizes students often complain the class spends too much time on theory, for Arthos, teaching students how to engage in political discussion in public spaces comes first.

“It’s not just the nuts and bolts of giving a speech,” Arthos said.

“Speech delivery and civic engagement and ethics are cogs and wheels that depend on one another and should be taught together.”

Robert Terrill, director of writing and rhetoric studies, developed the first version of public oral communication in fall 2013. In a class of 200 students crowded into the

lecture hall on the main floor of the Fine Arts building, Terrill began the course’s legacy with a similar emphasis on theory.

The decision to require a public speaking course was partially in response to state curricular changes emphasizing oral communication. But Terrill said the curriculum change just provided a window of opportunity for the college and Dean’s Office that were already considering the new requirement to teach writing, research and speaking skills.

The Dean’s Office under executive dean Larry Singell presented the proposed requirement to college faculty members, who voted in its favor. Then Terrill began his work, editing existing public speaking classes in the Department of Communication and Culture that were then only required for a select few majors.

But the decision wasn’t without pushback. Many professors were worried adding a new requirement would squeeze out other courses students would have taken otherwise.

Today, a red “We Made Communication Great Again” hat sits on Terrill’s desk, beside shelves stacked with books on rhetoric and its Greek roots. Terrill said the tradition of combining speech delivery skills with civic engagement and ethics dates back to ancient Athens.

Rhetoric began as a form of civic art among a group of philosophers called the Sophists in Ancient Greece circa 600 B.C. and was especially used in legal disputes. Teachers of the era developed the five canons of rhetoric — invention, arrangement, style, delivery and memory — which still appear on public oral communication vocabulary lists today.

Terrill said continuing that legacy requires balancing professional and civic goals.

“This is the most valuable way to learn both sides of that coin — the delivery and the theory,” Terrill said.

“They belong together.”

Wanting to learn how to give a good presentation sophomore biochemistry major Piyush Sharma took C104: Business Presentations, the Kelley School of Business’s public speaking requirement. Sharma had already taken public oral communication his freshman year.

He said business presentations didn’t have the same emphasis on civic engagement goals Terrill derived from Greek tradition.

“It just helps tailor toward professionals,” he said.

But Hillman said she hasn’t learned anything about civic engagement in public oral communication.

Instead, Hillman said she’s saddled with busy work, including heavy note-taking, outlining, lessons on writing citations and quizzes twice a week. While the work isn’t difficult, Hillman said it eats up a lot of time.

“I haven’t really learned anything,” she said. “I feel like it’s a waste of time.”

Before Hillman switched to environmental and sustainability studies, she was in the School of Edu-

cation. During her freshman year, she took G203: Communications for Youth Serving Professionals, the equivalent of public oral communication for School of Education students.

The course emphasized speaking in front of students and parents, requiring IU students to make and present lesson plans, perform mock parent-teacher conferences, give mini lectures and lead mock classes.

In G203, Hillman said she learned more professional skills through the scenario and practicebased lessons.

“I did become a better public speaker because of my class freshman year,” she said. “But P155 did nothing.”

Sharma said, like communications for youth, business presentations emphasized practical skills over theory so students could apply what they learn in class to their work beyond the classroom.

“I feel like this class should be required for everyone,” he said. “No matter what you’re doing, being able to sell someone your idea is so important, and it shouldn’t just be for business students.”

Hillman said the College of Arts and Sciences should take a page from the business school or the School of Education’s books by creating different courses tailored to each major, rather than just one required for all majors.

She said doing so will help students learn practical public speaking skills directly related to their fields of study.

“A biologist won’t be giving the same kind of speeches as a political science major,” she said. “Each major requires some kind of communication, but putting them in the same category doesn’t do anything for anyone.”

But one common public speaking requirement for all majors serves a logistical purpose, said senior English lecturer Cindy Smith. Smith said having common requirements for basic skills such as public speaking makes it easier to transfer credits between universities.

Having one common public speaking course across majors in the college also helps students communicate information to people outside of their own fields.

“We didn’t want students to just learn how to communicate with fellow scientists, fellow doctors, fellow journalists,” Smith said. “Offering one course for everyone allows us to move beyond that bubble.”

More than tailoring courses to each major, Hillman said the best choice for public oral communication is to axe the requirement altogether.

“I think it should be an option,” Hillman said. “It’s a good class for some people but not everyone.”

TRACK AND FIELD

IU breaks records in Florida, California trips

By Brady Extin bextin@iu.edu | @BigB_1

IU track and field saw successful performances in many areas this weekend. The Hoosiers set personal records, created NCAA leading times and broke long-standing school records.

Many of the dominant performances came from the select group of Hoosiers that traveled out west to take part in the Stanford Invitational.

The most notable came from senior Maggie Allen.

Her time of 32:54.80 in the 10,000-meter race broke a 30-year-old school record previously held by Michelle Dekkers.

Allen’s performance was followed up by two NCAAleading times on the men’s side, in the steeplechase and 5,000-meter.

Senior Daniel Michalski was responsible for the leading mark in the steeplechase, posting a time of 8:35.52 to grab first place. The time also puts him in third place in the IU record books. The other mark was set by junior Kyle Mau in the 5,000-meter. Along with being the NCAA-leading time, his time of 13:44.43

earned him first place and a new personal record.

Other notable finishes at Stanford came from sophomore Ben Veatch and junior Bryce Millar. Veatch followed up Mau in the 5,000-meter by finishing third with a time

of 13:45.92, and after posting a time of 29:28.57 in the 10,000-meter, Millar set a personal record.

Down in Florida, the rest of the IU squad saw similar results.

The 1,500-meter proved to

be a dominant race for both the men and women. On the women’s side, junior Kelsey Harris notched a first place finish and personal record, crossing the line in a time of 4:18.23. The men took home third and fourth place. Joe

Murphy grabbed third with his time of 3:44.47 and was followed up shortly by sophomore Cooper Williams’ time of 3:45.83.

Similar to last season’s Florida Relays, the Hoosiers once again saw top-notch

performances in the relay portion of the meet.

The men’s sprint medley relay team got things going by setting the Hoosiers’ second school record of the weekend.

The team consisting of sophomore Cooper Williams, freshman Rikkoi Brathwaite, senior Derek Grimmer and junior Dushawn Tunstall clocked in at a time of 3:19.92 for first place.

Following that performance were a pair of secondplace finishes in the 4x800meter relay races. The women’s team finished in a time of 8:32.39 while the men crossed the line in 7:21.68.

Closing out the relay races were the distance medley relays. Both the men and women got back to the top spot on the podium with first-place finishes.

The men’s team ran a time of 9:54.46 while the women ran a 11:39.17.

The remaining notable results came on the field, with two personal records being broken. Junior Adam Coulon vaulted to a height of 5.25 meters in the pole vault to earn first-place. Senior Eric Bethea jumped 16.19 meters in the triple jump to nab third.

LITTLE 500

Miss N Out canceled after first round due to weather

By DJ Fezler djfezler@iu.edu | @DJFezler

With thunderstorms forecasted during Miss N Out on Saturday, the IU Student Foundation canceled the race following the first round due to rain.

The event will not be rescheduled, but with the first 32 heats being completed, every registered rider got an opportunity to compete.

Miss N Out was scheduled to begin at 12 p.m. and end at 6 p.m. After the noon start, rain began pouring on and off throughout the remainder of the first round.

IUSF and the Little 500 Riders Council announced the cancellation decision on social media after three hours of riding.

“We decided that the forecast was such that we didn’t want to continue racing,”

said IUSF Assistant Director of Little 500 Races Andrea Balzano. “It was looking bad enough that we wanted to find a good place that we could break, and that was after the first round. Weather is really unpredictable so I do my best to make decisions in a timely manner.”

Before the Little 500 season, Balzano said safety is the top priority for the race. They want to make the race as safe

Q&A: ‘Réversible’ showcases family history

By Grace Ybarra gnybarra@iu.edu | @gnybarra

The Montreal-based circus company The 7 Fingers will return to Bloomington for the performance of its newest production “Réversible” at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday at the IU Auditorium. The show is dedicated to the generation that paved the way for the modern world, so the eight performers dug through their family history to uncover stories that were used to create the performance.

The Indiana Daily Student spoke with circus artist and “Réversible” performer Jérémi Lévesque.

IDS: How did you get into acrobatics?

JL: I started out with acrobatics when I was about 13.

There was a small acrobatic

gym next to my high school to which I was going with my friends every night after school. I started training there just for fun, doing mostly parkour and trampoline and all of that.

I did that for a few years, and then I got into cheerleading for about three or four years. A friend of mine who did circus school in Montreal told me that I should do the auditions for this circus school in Montreal. I tried out, and I got in, and that’s how I started doing circus and more stage performance like theater and dance.

How long have you been with The 7 Fingers?

It’s been almost three years. We started the creation of this show “Réversible” in the summer of 2016. Right when I was finishing the cir-

cus school in Montreal, they hired me and four other people from my year at the circus school to do this show.

“Réversible” is about the stories of the past generations, so what stories from your family did you contribute to the performance?

We all talked about that with our individual families.

With me, I did go more into the story of my grandmother on my mother’s side, who I didn’t know was struggling with depression for most of her life due to religion. She was always very religious and very scared of the consequences that the Catholic church was imposing to certain behaviors.

I learned that she was struggling with that for most of her life and even had to go to a psychiatric hospital and

got shock therapy to try and fight depression. I never knew because most of my life my grandmother was a very happy, caring woman, and that’s a side of her that I never knew about.

How does it feel to be able to incorporate your family history into this performance?

I think it’s a beautiful opportunity that we’re given.

Every night when we’re about to do the show, even if it’s a night where it’s a little harder to get in the mood to do the show, just thinking about the fact that the show represents something so much bigger than ourselves is always very inspiring and always a good motivation to keep performing and keep presenting that to other people. In any case, it’s important for the audi-

ence to see themselves in those performances and think about their family histories.

What is the biggest challenge you face as an acrobat?

Some could say injury is always something that we have to be careful with, just taking care of our own bodies and making sure that we can keep performing in a safe way.

But more than that, I guess the biggest difficulty as a circus artist in a contemporary circus context is just finding the right ways to use acrobatics to serve a story and serve a purpose and not only to do it for the sake of doing a trick but using it as vocabulary to tell the story.

What impact does “Réversible” seek to make on an audience?

One of the priorities of the company, The 7 Fingers, was always to hold up a mirror in front of the audience for them to see themselves through the performance. It’s to show that we’re not only acrobats, but we’re also humans with stories.

What is your favorite place you’ve performed on this tour so far?

That’s hard to say, we’ve been to a lot of places. For me, we went to Bergen in Norway and it was a big highlight because it was a beautiful place to perform at. Also, performing in my hometown Montreal was a big deal for all of my family to see the show and see what my work actually is.

We’ve been to a lot of places now so it’s hard to put a finger on which one was really better.

Can birth charts show how politicians will lead? France is teaching me to be OK with tardiness Anna Groover is a junior studying English, geography and religious studies.

ILLUSTRATION BY KATHRYN DE LA ROSA

Kathryn de la Rosa is a senior studying theater and journalism.

Rep. Alexandria OcasioCortez’s birth chart has pinged around the astrological corners of the internet since January.

A professional astrologer tweeted a screenshot of his email exchange with a member of Ocasio-Cortez’s staff, who confirmed she was born at 11:50 a.m. Oct. 13, 1989 in the Bronx.

With the internet shifting our relationship to celebrity, people boldly ask public figures for their birth information. I still haven’t recovered from when Lana Del Rey answered someone demanding her birth time in an Instagram comment.

The New York Times’ own Amanda Hess quote-tweeted the email from Ocasio-Cortez with “@BetoORourke release your birth time you coward.”

Astrologers of varying expertise have warred with their interpretations of Ocasio-Cortez’s chart. I’m most drawn to the concentration of planets in her upper left quadrant — specifically the

11th house.

Remember the three prongs of planetary placements: a planet is what you do, the sign it’s in is how you do it and its house is where you do it.

Ocasio-Cortez's 10th through 12th houses are focused on public life: career, community and service. If this sounds familiar, Herman B Wells’ birth chart is similar.

However her career shakes out, it’s likely to be a long one. Her spiritual work must live in the public eye.

With all these planets in the free-thinking 11th house, she’ll be guided by her belief in what is good for society as a whole.

For comparison, I needed a politician whose career we can examine in retrospect.

Astrology is lovely for sussing out potential, but much of its certainty comes from reviewing history. Robert Hand’s staple “Planets in Transit,” published in 1976, uses former President Richard Nixon and the Watergate scandal as a case study for interchanges between birth charts and events.

I don’t want anyone midcareer or midterm like Presi-

dent Trump. Any 2020 hopefuls or even former President Barack Obama are too fresh in their public lives for me to comfortably cast their charts.

I could look at Nixon or former Presidents Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush.

A politician whose life I can speak on with authority?

Richard II of England. Another Tricky Dick, if you will.

He’s the subject of my favorite Shakespearean history, and he was famously a terrible ruler who was deposed and assassinated decades before the Wars of Roses.

Flighty, given to flattery and delusional in his belief in the divine right of kings, Shakespeare’s “Richard II” has recently become en vogue due to its echoes of impeachment in the U.S. and its nationalist relevance to Brexit Britain.

The wonderful thing about medieval monarchies is they often recorded their heirs’ birth times specifically for astrology. Richard II was born at 10:10 a.m. Jan. 6, 1367 in Bordeaux, France.

Like Ocasio-Cortez, Richard’s upper left quadrant

is busy, especially his 10th house. The 10th house covers reputation, someone’s rank in society. Richard ruled England from childhood and met infamy and violent death due to his public wrongs. Sagittarius is on the cusp of his 10th house, and his narcissism is Sagittarian energy at its worst.

His Sun and Mercury in stubborn, self-righteous Capricorn spell his doom. His god complex, from being a preteen king and believing the throne was his because God said so, was incompatible with the more progressive, 14th-century English society willing to challenge tyranny.

While Ocasio-Cortez and Richard II’s charts are similar in focus, their identities’ expression in the signs and planetary aspects make a world of difference. Astrology can tell us about a political leader’s potential to rule, not how their rule will affect society or their personal health.

I’ll look at Beto’s chart if he divulges his birth information, but only time will tell. krdelaro@iu.edu

Singers perform at the Bishop Bar

By Madison Smalstig msmalsti@iu.edu | @madi_smals

A sore throat and a weak back didn’t stop Faye Webster and Stella Donnelly from singing and dancing at their Thursday night performance at the Bishop Bar. Webster, a singer-songwriter from Atlanta opened the show at 9:39 p.m. to around 140 audience members. The crowd had been inching closer to the stage since 9:30, the scheduled start time.

When she struck her first chords, the audience kept talking, but when she began to sing they all stopped.

“The right side of my neck still smells like you,” Webster sang.

After the song she yelled to the back of the room.

“Yo, is Ben still here?”

Webster said. “Can you grab my red tote? I forgot my yoyo.”

Webster later said her favorite character in Super Mario Smash Bros. is Ness, who wields a powerful yoyo. Now, Webster brings one to every performance and sometimes even ships them directly to venues to ensure

she has one for every onstage appearance.

For this performance, since she was struggling with a sore throat, she decided to cut a few songs in favor of performing a few yo-yo tricks. She successfully completed the one-handed star with her Duncan Pro Z Yo-Yo and tried but never completed the classic cradle trick.

“My favorite part is the yoyo tricks, and I would change my yo-yo tricks," Webster said. "I would make them better."

Webster sang four other songs, ending with “Room Temperature,” which was released March 6 as a part of her upcoming album. The album, “Atlanta Millionaires Club,” is set to release May 24.

Donnelly, a Welsh-Australian artist, followed Webster’s performance with a disclaimer that her back was not cooperating and she might have to perform sitting down.

Nevertheless, she was up following the first song and performed the remaining 11 on her feet, incorporating a few small dance moves into one of her final songs.

The second song Donnelly performed, “You Owe Me,”

was met by dozens of audience members singing along.

Donnelly said she was shocked.

“No one’s ever sung along to that before,” she said.

Donnelly also sang “Boys Will Be Boys,” a tale of one of her friends who experienced sexual assault.

“Why was she all alone, wearing her shirt that low?” she sang. “They said, ‘Boys will be boys,’ deaf to the word 'no'.”

She prefaced the song with a disclaimer regarding the nature of the song and a few personal beliefs about sexual abuse.

“When this thing happened to my friend and she opened up to the people around her about what hap-

pened, they kind of questioned her,” Donnelly said.

“That’s just not good enough.

We need to stop questioning women and everyone on how they dress and how they act because no one’s really asking for it.”

Following her more serious songs, Donnelly invited her four other band members to join her on stage for more of her upbeat songs. These songs included “Lunch” and “Seasons Greetings,” a Christmas song she performs year-round.

Following one of her songs, Donnelly commented on the audience’s acceptance of her different artistic approach in certain songs.

“Bloomington gets it,” she said.

During a field trip to Marseille, France for a class, my professor promised us an hour for lunch. He shaved off 10 minutes when he realized we were 10 minutes behind schedule.

Too bad, he said. The meeting time was still 1:30 p.m., as originally planned. He dismissed any ensuing grumbling. Reconvening at 1:30 p.m. was of the utmost importance.

At 1:30 p.m., not even all the students had returned, much less the professor. The minutes ticked by until he strolled up to us at 1:45 p.m., apparently having forgotten to follow the strict directions he’d given us himself. I was both flabbergasted and thoroughly entertained.

I’ve never thought I cared too much about punctuality.

But ever since arriving in Aixen-Provence, France, to study here for the semester, I’ve had to question whether I am, in fact, overly concerned with timeliness.

When I recounted this story to my French host mom, she laughed and told me my professor was clearly running on “le quart d’heure aixois,” or “the Aixois 15 minutes," with "aixois" being an adjective meaning “of Aix-enProvence." It’s the idea that you can arrive 15 minutes late to any standing engagement without your tardiness being a big deal. This philosophy, she said, reflects the general attitudes people hold here in the south of France about living a relaxed, stress-free life.

After discovering “le quart d’heure aixois,” I’ve been both its benefactor and the victim with my hearty American “If you’re not early, you’re late” mentality.

For example, one of my professors seems to be incapable of arriving to class less than ten minutes after the official start time. I’ve embraced this habitual tardiness of his, especially because it means I can take a slightly later bus to get to class. Often, students will roll into class 10 or 15 minutes

late, too, and this tardiness isn’t seen as disrespectful as it so often is in the United States.

Instead, the professor simply waves the person to a seat and meets his or her apologies with a “C’est pas grave” — “It’s not a big deal”— and a smile.

Once, several friends and I were running late to a class.

We were still more than five minutes away when the clock hit the start time of the class.

As we rushed through the streets to get there, our professor passed us on his bike, late himself but carefree as ever.

I’ve discovered, though, this region’s flexibility toward time means I can’t ever expect a business to open its doors on the dot. One time, stressed with school and other obligations, I walked to a café and arrived five minutes before its opening time, just so I could stake out the best possible study spot. Big mistake: the proprietor himself didn’t appear at the establishment until 15 minutes after it was supposed to open, rendering my strategy both silly and useless.

It’d be easy to get thoroughly incensed by everyone’s constant lateness here. But I think to do so would be to grow frustrated with the nature of Aix-en-Provence itself, which is something I can’t bring myself to do.

It’s a city made for lingering, for taking your time. Its main thoroughfares are filled with open-air markets three days a week, and in some plazas, vendors peddle their wares seven days a week. By midafternoon, those same spaces have been hosed off by city sanitary workers and replaced with a sea of chairs and tables, where people idle over coffee, beer or wine into the late hours of the night. The next day, this dance starts all over again.

So who can blame someone for dawdling in an alcove, entranced by the soothing rhythm of one of the city’s many fountains, or for taking his or her time at the markets, sampling jams in all flavors from apricot lavender to rhubarb? I, for one, cannot. acgroove@iu.edu

Documentary to screen in GISB

By Chris Forrester chforres@iu.edu | @_chrisforrester

A screening of the documentary film “We Have Not Come Here to Die” will take place at 6 p.m. Friday in the Global and International Studies Building 0011.

The screening will be followed by a discussion by two IU Ph.D. candidates.

The documentary explores the issue of caste discrimination in Indian university spaces after Dalit activist and research scholar Rohith Vemula’s death by suicide. In his suicide note, Vemula wrote against the “value of a man being reduced to his immediate identity.” The film follows the political movement galva-

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Moore, Blackmon set to transfer from IU Moore averaged 1.3 points and 1.7 rebounds per game this past season, and never developed a consistent role in the rotation of players used by Miller.

This came despite Miller often stating his intention to give bench players like Moore a bigger role in IU’s games.

His most notable appearance during the 2018-19 season came in a win at Penn State, as he recorded four rebounds, a block and a steal.

Moore was recruited to IU by the previous coaching staff, led by former Head Coach Tom Crean.

Moore was rated by 247Sports as a three-star player and the 151st best player nationally following his career at Hatboro-Horsham Senior High School in Horsham,

Neither Clifton Moore nor Vijay Blackmon will be part of Head Coach Archie Miller’s third season at IU. Moore announced his decision to transfer from IU on Friday afternoon through a statement on his Twitter account, and Blackmon announced Saturday.

During the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons, Moore played a combined 24 games for the Hoosiers, but all of his appearances were off the bench, and his longest time played in a game was only eight minutes.

His highest scoring game for IU came in January, when he scored five points in a home loss to Nebraska.

Pennsylvania.

With Moore leaving, the Hoosiers now have a third scholarship to use next season, after the team used its two other scholarships on incoming forward Trayce Jackson-Davis and guard Armaan Franklin.

Should freshman guard Romeo Langford opt to leave the program and turn professional, it would give IU another scholarship to use.

Blackmon, the younger brother of former IU player James Blackmon Jr., started his college career at the University of Saint Francis, a National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics school in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

He spent the 2016-17 season as a freshman with the Cougars, averaging more than

nine points per game in 22 games. He then transferred to IU, but sat out the 2017-18 season to fulfill NCAA transfer requirements.

In the 2018-19 season, his only one with the Hoosiers, Blackmon was named an Academic All-Big Ten selection.

He played in seven games

Offense scores 39 runs in series win over Maryland IU’s 19-4 win over Maryland on Sunday capped off an incredible two days of hitting and gave IU its second consecutive conference series win.

Maryland pitcher Hunter Parsons went eight innings on the mound Friday, allowing just two hits while striking out five. He didn’t allow a run.

IU senior ace Pauly Milto did his best to counter Parsons’ effort, going six and one-third innings and striking out eight. However, the

By Jared Rigdon jmrigdon@iu.edu | @RigdonJared

After an offensive explosion over the nine games leading into the weekend, IU was shut out in the opener of a three-game set against Maryland in College Park, Maryland.

Whatever IU Coach Jeff Mercer said to his team after Friday night’s game night must have worked because the offense responded by scoring 39 runs in the final two games of the series.

Horoscope

IU offense gave Milto zero help Friday night.

Runs batted in from Maryland’s infielder Taylor Wright and outfielder Caleb Walls were enough to push Maryland to a 2-0 win over IU. The tide turned Saturday afternoon.

IU’s bats came out firing, putting up 18 runs in the first five innings en route to a 20-5 blowout of Maryland.

IU hit nine home runs on the day including a hat trick from freshman outfielder

Grant Richardson to give IU a comfortable lead.

Richardson, junior outfielder Matt Gorski, sophomore infielder Cole Barr, junior utility player Scotty Bradley and senior utility player Matt Lloyd all hit home runs Saturday. Bradley, Richardson and Lloyd all had more than one.

The 20 runs from IU were the most since the team put up 22 runs against Northwestern last spring.

Junior pitcher Tanner Gordon continued his hot

streak with a seven-inning, three-hit performance. He allowed just one run while striking out five.

Sunday was more of the same for IU. After the 20-run explosion Saturday, IU put up 19 runs Sunday.

Lloyd stole the show with a three-hit performance.

His day included hitting two home run and driving in seven total runs. His performance sparked IU to a 19-4 win over Maryland and the series victory. Bradley had

four hits and sophomore infielder Drew Ashley had five runs batted in.

The offense allowed junior pitcher Andrew Saalfrank to settle in and deal an 11-strikeout performance over the course of six innings.
