Carl Ziegler was an enthusiastic teacher, caring mentor By Wei Wang daviwang@iu.edu | @WeiWangDavid23
Carl Ziegler was responsible for hundreds of students at the Collins LivingLearning Center, but former students said he always made time for every one of them. Friends and former students remember Ziegler as a caring and thoughtful mentor who took pleasure in teaching and helping his students succeed. Ziegler died April 19 in Bloomington at the age of

80. He joined IU in 1966 as an assistant professor in Germanic studies and com-
parative literature, according to an obituary he wrote for himself, and served as director of Collins LLC from 1990 to 2004, according to the LLC’s website. He was a recipient of the Mary Burgan Distinguished Service Award and the IU Bicentennial Medal. IU class of 1984 alumna Laurie Ritchie said Ziegler’s enthusiasm for the German language and culture convinced her to take German courses in each of her four undergraduate years. “I don't know that I
would have done that if I hadn't, if not for his enthusiasm,” she said. Director of Residential Life Sara Ivey Lucas said she had lived in Collins when Ziegler was director and then worked there as a manager until 2004, when he retired. She said Collins was the only LLC at IU when Ziegler became its director, but its success showed other IU departments the value of engaging with first-year students and encouraged them to found their own living-learning programs.
Lucas said Ziegler will be missed for his legacy of compassionate and engaged leadership and for his sincere interest in enriching students’ IU experience to the fullest extent. “I think the professional lesson that Carl taught is that the work that you do as university administrators should be about empowering students and helping them find their voice,” she said. Mark Helmsing, assistant professor of education, history and folklore at
George Mason University, is an IU class of 2004 alumnus and lived in Collins for four years. He said Ziegler championed diversity and always wanted to bring in students who might not feel they had a place elsewhere on campus. He said on Sept. 11, 2001, Ziegler stayed at Collins all night consoling students while warning against anti-Muslim violence. “Some people from Indiana were saying that SEE ZIEGLER, PAGE 6
City to rename Jordan Avenue By Hugh Pebworth hpebwort@iu.edu
Mayor John Hamilton is convening a task force with IU to begin the process of renaming Jordan Avenue, according to a City of Bloomington press release Thursday. The task force will comprise seven members, including city residents, IU faculty and administrators, according to the release. The co-chairs of the task force are Elizabeth Mitchell, a journalist, filmmaker and historian of Bloomington’s African-American community, and Alex Tanford, Maurer School of Law professor emeritus of law, according to the release. The task force will review name proposals for Jordan Avenue south of 17th Street as well as the extension north of 17th Street, according to the release. Residents can submit proposals of new names for the street through this form. Jordan Avenue is named after David Starr Jordan, IU’s president from 1885 to 1891 and a professor of zoology from 1875 to 1891. Jordan was an influential member of American SEE JORDAN, PAGE 6
State vaccine effort is ongoing By David Wolfe Bender benderd@iu.edu | @dbenderpt
Community leaders provided an update on Monroe County’s COVID-19 response and the county’s social gathering guidelines at the City of Bloomington’s weekly COVID-19 press conference Friday. Walk-in appointments The Indiana State Department of Health is asking vaccination sites to allow for some walk-in appointments starting as early as next week, Monroe County Health Administrator Penny Caudill said. Walk-in appointments do not require pre-scheduled appointments online or by phone. IU Health South Central Region President Brian Shockney said he thinks this is part of the state’s push to increase vaccination rates. “It's our understanding that this is part of the push to get shots in arms and get as many Hoosiers vaccinated as possible,” he said. The Indiana Motor Speedway in Indianapolis offered a no-appointment drive-thru clinic the weekend of April 16-18. Shockney said notice about the move to walk-in appointments from the ISDH was given to vaccination sites Friday. Each site may operate differently in regard to walkSEE VACCINE, PAGE 6

Sikh students decry hate at vigil By Wei Wang daviwang@iu.edu | @WeiWangDavid23
When IU freshman Mohkm Singh learned eight people were shot and killed in Indianapolis April 15, he immediately thought of gun violence, racism, and most of all, hate in the United States. “Four of them were my Sikh brethren,” he said. “Unfortunately, hate is something that exists far too much in our world.” About 30 people, mostly IU students, held candles up high to mourn the victims of the Indianapolis mass shooting Sunday evening at Sample Gates as a bouquet of orange flowers lay next to the cream and crimson tulips. The Sikh Student Association organized the vigil. A gunman identified by the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department as Brandon Scott Hole killed eight people and injured five at the FedEx Ground Plainfield Operations Center be-
fore dying by suicide. This was the third mass shooting this year in Indianapolis and the deadliest in the city in at least 15 years. Four of the eight people killed were members of the local Sikh community, according to Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett. The eight victims were: Matthew R. Alexander, 32, Samaria Blackwell, 19, Amarjeet Johal, 66, Jasvinder Kaur, 50, Jaswinder Singh, 68, Amarjit Sekhon, 48, Karli Smith, 19, and John Weisert, 74, according to an IMPD press release on April 16. The New York Times reported that three Sikh victims’ family and friends provided different spellings of names and ages for Amarjit Sekhon, 49, and Jaswinder Kaur Singh, 70. Ravleen Ahuja, co-president of the Sikh Student Association at IU, said the shooting brought “confusion, shock, trauma and anger.” “An attack on any mar-
ginalized community is gutwrenching and heartbreaking, and as a Sikh in Indiana, this event particularly hit close to home,” she said. Ahuja said members of the Sikh community must stay strong, speak out against hateful attacks and stay in “chardi kala,” or relentless and eternal optimism. “We hold the power to create a safe and productive space for our friends and family, a place that the victims of the shooting did not have, unfortunately,” she said. Attendees bowed their heads in silence after Ahuja read the eight victims’ names. SSA co-President Taveen Saran said the mass shooting underscores a pattern of violence against the Sikh community in the U.S., referencing the 2012 mass shooting in which a gunman killed six people in a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin.
“I think hate creates a monster, and the accessibility to guns allows for that monster to act upon that hate and those feelings of bigotry and pure hatred towards others for no reason,” she said. SSA Freshman Representative Mohkm Singh said the root cause of gun violence in America is hate, something inherently inhuman. “The way to combat hate is through love, through revolutionary love,” Singh said, referencing the Revolutionary Love Project by Sikh-American activist Valarie Kaur. Indiana State Sen. Shelli Yoder, D-Bloomington, attended the vigil. She said there is much work to do to fight gun violence. “We need to do our jobs to make sure that we’re doing everything that we can to combat gun violence,” she said. SSA Vice President Angad Singh said learning about the Indianapolis
shooting was a tough experience. He said he was confused how Hole could legally obtain the rifles he used in the mass shooting after police had confiscated his shotgun in 2020 and the FBI had interviewed him after discovering he had been browsing white supremacist websites on his computer. “We do need stricter laws,” he said. “A gun, it gives someone who has a lot of hate an easy method to kill a lot of people in a short amount of time.” Singh said he was 10 when the 2012 Sikh temple shooting took place and remembered feeling confused about why Sikhs were subjected to such violence. He said he now understands more about gun violence and hate. “I was confused by it and I couldn’t understand it, and now I fully understand what's going on,” he said.

Sikh students comment on Indy mass shooting By Swarna Gowtham sgowtham@iu.edu
On April 15, eight people were shot and killed at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis. Four of the individuals were Sikh people. According to the Gun Violence Archive, more than 150 mass shootings have already occurred in 2021. Officials at the Indianapolis shooting speculate the incident to have been racially motivated. The shooting occurred during the week when Sikhs celebrate Vaisakhi, a holiday marking the birth of Sikhism as a faith. IU junior Ravleen Ahuja, who is co-president of
the Sikh Student Association, said she was shocked and confused when she first learned about the shooting. “My initial reaction was before I was upset or before I was angry, just shocked and confused as to what triggered this person to want to do that, why would they inflict such violence,” Ahuja said. According to its Instagram page, The Sikh Student Association was founded in 2019 as a space where Sikh students can feel welcome and safe. Ravleen was one of the founders of the association along with sophomore Taveen Saran, co-president of the
Sikh Student Association. “Some members of our community were just doing their daily routine,” Saran said. “It's just scary to know that they were just going into work or they're leaving work and then they were targeted and killed at their workplace.” This isn’t the first time there has been a violent attack against Sikhs in the U.S. In 2012, six people were shot and killed at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin. “My sister and I were talking about how we didn't understand the whole concept of why someone would do this, but now that we're older we do understand and it's just truly
heartbreaking,” Saran said. The Sikh Coalition, a Sikh-American advocacy group, has received hundreds of reports of violence and discrimination against Sikh-Americans since 9/11, according to a factsheet written by the coalition. The FBI reported that from 2017 to 2018, hate crimes against Sikhs rose from 20 to 60 in the U.S. “Right now I'm really upset and it's a really horrible thing, especially because nothing is particularly being done about it,” Ahuja said. “There's nothing being done in terms of gun reform.” The Sikh Student Association and the Sikh stu-
dent community as a whole took some time to process and mourn, Ahuja said. The Sikh Student Association offered a vigil Sunday for the victims of the shooting. Saran said that the vigil wasn’t just for the Sikh victims but for the other victims who were injured or who had lost their lives. “This vigil is for everyone, so this is also for the entire state of Indiana that felt the same pain that we have felt because their fellow Hoosiers were brutally shot for no reason,” Saran said.

Safe Sisters IU creates flag display By Christy Avery averycm@iu.edu | @christym_avery
Safe Sisters IU, an organization under the Panhellenic Association, organized a display Monday to raise awareness of sexual assault on IU’s campus. The display could be seen in Dunn Meadow from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. According to an Instagram post on the Safe Sisters Instagram account, blue flags were placed in Dunn Meadow to represent the thousands of undergraduate and graduate students who have experienced nonconsensual touching or complete sexual penetration. The display occurs during Sexual Assault Awareness Month in April. There were 204 flags in total to represent sexual assault survivors at IU: 110 flags represent nearly 11,000 women who have experienced nonconsensual touching, 39 flags represent 3,826 women who have experienced non-consensual attempted or complete sexual penetration and 55 flags represent 555 men
who have experienced nonconsensual attempted or complete sexual penetration. Junior Sarah Smith, culture chair of Safe Sisters, came up with the idea for the display. She said she’d seen a similar event earlier in the year in Dunn Meadow, which she remembered when Safe Sisters began discussing Sexual Assault Awareness Month. “I thought that made a stark visual impact,” Smith said. “I noticed it, I saw it and I learned more.” Members of Safe Sisters met at Dunn Meadow at 9 a.m. to set up the flags, she said. “It was somber,” Smith said. She said while Safe Sisters IU knew it was doing work that served a good purpose, the members did so with heavy hearts. Smith said the Safe Sisters ultimately knew the display would bring more awareness about sexual assault to campus. According to its website, Safe Sisters aids sororities in supporting survivors of
sexual assault and spreading education about consent, rape culture, hookup culture and bystander culture in the greek community. Safe Sisters is made up of women from IU’s 22 sororities and is trained by IU’s Office of Sexual Assault Prevention and Victim Advocacy. Junior Courtney Kocal, vice president of personal development for the Panhellenic Association said there are 240 Safe Sisters between the 22 sororities. Kocal said Safe Sisters do not report cases of sexual assault, but rather provide support and information about options and resources to survivors. Kocal said the goal of the display is to help people visualize the number of people sexually assaulted on IU’s campus. “Going and seeing these flags and seeing how much space it takes up in Dunn Meadow and knowing the statistics behind all of them really makes people think,” Kocal said. She said while the flags represent data provided to

for anyone. “Hopefully one day we can get to a time where there are no flags and you don’t have to do visual representations to see when a prob-
lem is going on so that the problem does go away,” Kocal said. “I don’t know what that process will look like, but hopefully that is something that we can get to one day.”
IU experts reflect on Chauvin trial $1.9 billion allocated Haley Ryan haryan@iu.edu | @haley__ryan
A jury convicted former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin of seconddegree murder, manslaughter and third-degree murder April 20 for the death of George Floyd on May 25, 2020. Chauvin could be sentenced up to 40 years in prison, according to the Tribune News Service. The jury debated for 12 hours before delivering the verdict. Three IU experts reflected on the role of video evidence, police testimony and jury diversity in the trial and the trial’s future effects. Jakobi Williams, African American and African diaspora studies and history associate professor, said he felt relief after hearing Chauvin was found guilty of all three counts because there was a sense of accountability. “Police officers usually aren’t held accountable,” Williams said. “I was happy to see that that was the case this time around.” A research effort conducted by Bowling Green State University’s Philip Stinson and Chloe Wentzlof found that since the beginning of 2005 through June 24, 2019, there were 104 nonfederal law enforcement officers — defined by possessing the general powers of arrest — who have been arrested for murder or manslaughter following an onduty shooting in which an officer shot and killed someone in the United States.
Of those 104 officers, 35 have been convicted of a crime resulting from the onduty shooting, according to the same study. In the past, Williams said, the prosecution has typically underperformed in their role when prosecuting police. “The job is to prosecute the officer for the crime that was committed, not play defense attorney and tell the public why you can’t get an indictment,” he said. Williams said there is still more work to be done. “We still have a lot of work to do,” he said. Another important part of the trial was the prosecution’s ability to use fellow officers to testify against Chauvin, he said. “That’s unprecedented,” Williams said. “That doesn’t happen in many of these cases.” According to a 2000 study done by the National Institute for Justice, 24.9 percent of surveyed officers believed that whistleblowing, revealing private information about an organization often related to wrongdoing according to Britannica, was not worth it. In the same study, 52.4 percent of surveyed officers agreed or strongly agreed that it was not unusual for police officers to “turn a blind eye” to other officers’ misconduct. Williams said the police union usually comes to the officer’s defense. Due to the international outcry over Floyd’s murder, Williams said police distanced them-
selves from Chauvin to show the officer was the problem, not policing. “But his actions was just so brazen and so arrogant, and just so egregious that it makes sense for officers to take a step back and acknowledge that his actions were way over the pale of what officers are supposed to do,” Williams said. David Kim, IU-East lecturer in criminal justice, said the blue wall of silence, or the brotherhood of police officers that does not bring unlawful actions into the public sphere, was broken during the trial when Minneapolis chief of police said Chauvin didn’t follow protocol. “There was occasions during the trial that police officers were outright against Chauvin’s actions,” Kim said. Kim said Chauvin’s case was different from previous cases due to the amount of video evidence provided by witnesses. “Because of the rise in body-worn cameras and the rise in individuals with cell phones, I think that increased the amount of evidence and proof,” he said. Kim said the evidence was a crucial factor in the outcome of the trial and the case will change how witnesses and police officers provide evidence in the future. “It’s going to increase the amount of video evidence that’s going to be provided in most cases that’s going against police officers in the
future,” Kim said. Stephanie Whitehead, IU-East associate professor of criminal justice, said this is a rare moment because police aren’t often generally held accountable for their behavior. She said people are happy to see officers held accountable for their actions. According to Reuters Investigates, in excessive force cases, the courts favored police 44% of the time between 2005-2007 and 57% of the time from 2015-2019. She said she believes the case would add to the movement against qualified immunity. Qualified immunity protects government officials from lawsuits alleging the official violated another party’s rights, according to Cornell Law. “Police officers do need to be questioned and held accountable,” Whitehead said. Whitehead said the realization of the necessity of a diverse jury would have an effect on future cases. “The jury is definitely going to play a role and diversity does matter in terms of just having, you know, different perspectives from different life experiences in that room,” Whitehead said. The outcome of the case, Whitehead said, is going to give people a little breathing room to see that things can change but there’s recognition that one case isn’t justice itself. “There’s a lot more work that needs to be done,” Whitehead said.
Oliver Winery acquired by NY firm Nicolas Napier npnapier@iu.edu | @nicnapier1
Oliver Winery, a Bloomington-based wine company, has been purchased by New York private equity firm NexPhase Capital. The winery, which is located on 200 E. Winery Road, opened in 1972 and distributes wine in 40 states and ships across the country. The winery closed on the deal in March. Former company president Julie Adams and co-founder Bill Oliver said in an April 24 blog post they have been working with NexPhase for four months. “Oliver is still deeply rooted in Bloomington and in our state and local community,” the post read. “We’re also proud that our Indiana-based company can compete as a national player in a really competitive industry.” The headquarters will remain in Bloomington as will the employees, WTHR reported. In a January 25 blog post, the winery wrote that Adams will become the CEO and founding family member Bill Oliver will continue serving on the board of directors.
“The commitment of Oliver Winery’s existing employees will now be supported by NexPhase’s financial backing and industry expertise,” the post read. Jamie Kaufman, a partner at NexPhase, and operating partner Doug Corbett
will both join the winery’s board of directors, according to the post. “Kaufman leads the Firm’s consumer investing practice and Corbett brings nearly 30 years of consumer operating experience growing and optimizing branded
businesses in the U.S., Western Europe and Canada,” the post read. The NexPhase consumer team has focused its investments on other companies, including Zing Zang, a non-alcoholic cocktail mix brand, according to the post.
to K-12 schools
Sophie Suter srsuter@iu.edu | @sophiersuter
Indiana lawmakers announced Tuesday recordbreaking investments will go toward education in the state over the next two years. These investments passed both the Indiana State House and Senate Friday. Indiana House Bill 1001 says $1.9 billion will be dedicated toward K-12 schools, which are primarily public schools, but voucher programs and charter schools will also benefit. This new funding is possible because of the COVID-19 relief money Indiana received from the American Rescue Plan. Of this funding, $600 million will go toward raising teacher salaries in the state, according to HB 1001. Lawmakers recommended a starting salary of $40,000 for state educators, which is $5,000 more than the current average starting salary of the 2019-20 school year. The current average starting salary is lower than all of Indiana’s surrounding states. School districts with an average starting salary below $40,000 will be highly encouraged to use some of the funding they receive towards raising teacher pay, but it is not required. Schools that already have an average starting salary of $40,000 or above can direct the funding how they choose. John Kenny, director of business operations for the Monroe County Community School Corporation, said starting teacher pay in Monroe County already meets $40,000, but the school system still plans on increasing teacher salaries with the funding this bill will provide. “We’re very appreciative of the state government,” Kenny said. “When they got that higher revenue estimate, they passed it on to school districts and teachers. We’re certainly a district that’s committed to turning all the extra money into teacher pay that we’re able to.” Kenny said this new funding will not go to teacher salaries right away because the school district must enter a two year bargaining agreement with the teachers and teachers unions, but after
that he hopes agreements will be reached for increased salaries. Jeffrey Anderson, associate dean for undergraduate education at the IU School of Education, said he is hopeful state and local leaders will use these funds wisely by increasing teacher pay and prioritizing public education. “Increasing salary can be expected to positively impede potential teacher shortages,” Anderson said. “I encourage state and local leaders to actively advocate for recruiting society’s best and brightest into teaching and also to fully commit to increasing the diversity of the teaching force by supporting the expansion of effective pipelines into the classroom.” Anderson said those pipelines could include policymakers funding scholarships for people who want to become teachers so potential teachers don’t accumulate large amounts of debt. He also said he would like to see local governments pursue high-quality teaching methods and resources for all schools so this funding will benefit learners, their families and their communities. While much of the money will go toward public schools, some funding will also go toward charter schools and expanding voucher programs. Public school advocates in the state said this is disappointing because they believe public school systems should be the priority. Cathy Fuentes-Rohwer, president of the Indiana Coalition for Public Education, said she and the organization are glad more funding will be going toward schools, but they continue to be disappointed because public schools don’t appear to be lawmakers’ biggest priority. “Public schools are a common good — it’s what serves all children, and they don’t turn away any children at the door,” Fuentes-Rohwer said. “Private schools and charter schools are allowed to discriminate against families. They don’t have to open their doors to everybody. Our tax dollars are for all of us.”

CAA offers Q&A session for students By Agness Lungu
slungu@iu.edu | @ @adeshewa_lungu
IU’s chapter of the American Marketing Association offered a Q&A session with Mark Cheatham, the Creative Artist Agency’s cohead of Hip-Hop/R&B touring group, on April 21. The event started with a video about Cheatham and his career. In the video, he discussed artists he signed including Usher, Lady Gaga, Pink, 98°, Jessicca Simpson, Justin Bieber and Cardi B. One student asked about his early career goals and if Cheatham ever wanted to go into the music industry. Cheatham said he had no plans of going into the music industry when he was young. “When I was growing up, there was no Instagram or YouTube, and I did not know I was into music,” Cheatham said. “My other careers were
not working out really well, and my mother’s friend came to me and said I’d be a good agent.” The first question asked was about how he and the CAA have handled the pandemic. “We have been affected because sometimes most artists just make money from tours and there’s barely any these days,” Cheatham said. “We had to get creative, and it’s easier if the artist has a personality like Cardi because she can do TV and the people love her.” Cheatham talked about how he finds new artists and signs them onto labels. “I have been in the business for a long time so people know who I am by now and I do not judge who is gonna be big,” Cheatham said. Cheatham also talked about his biggest success
stories as a music agent. “My biggest success stories were Usher and Justin Bieber, and that is because we have done great tours,” Cheatham said. “Cardi B is another success story. Cardi is huge now, and that is because she expresses herself.” Cheatham also discussed internship opportunities at CAA for sophomore and junior students interested in the music industry. “It’s pretty competitive,” Cheatham said. “If you become an intern, we fly you to LA and provide you with housing for two months. It’s really a valuable experience if you have good eyes and ears, you could learn a lot from the different agents.” He advised new and upcoming artists to find an effective manager and be willing to learn. “What I always advise people is don’t get stuck,” he

changed a nation forever. *
Guilty. Culpable of or responsible for a specified wrongdoing. A word not often used to describe when a police officer kills a Black person. A word millions of people all over the world have been waiting to hear for almost a year. On April 20, Derek Chauvin was found guilty of murdering George Floyd. He was charged with second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. While the Black community is releasing a collective sigh of relief, this still does not feel like justice. If there was justice, Floyd would still be alive today. The country would not have been anxiously awaiting the verdict of a graphic murder caught on camera — a murder that
Chauvin is being held accountable for his actions, but Floyd cannot be brought back to life. I published a column for the Indiana Daily Student on May 13, 2020, titled “Black men should not be forced to be martyrs.” I was completely unaware of what was about to take place less than two weeks later. In the column, I mentioned a quote from poet Jasmine Manns: “My son will not be a martyr for a war he never asked for.” George Floyd likely unwillingly became a martyr on May 25, 2020. The devastating murder of George Floyd changed the course of my life. It brought me closer to my calling and proved to me even more of what I care about. But at what cost?
*
*
The protests, petitions and donations were positive developments. Peoples’ eyes were opened to the deeply embedded racism in society. I am not sure how it took so long. While the world needed this rude awakening, I struggle to believe it was worth it, because someone had to die. Floyd was murdered five days before my 21st birthday. As I watched the minutes get closer to midnight on the night of May 29, I cried. I felt guilty for celebrating anything. I spent that day at a protest in downtown Indianapolis. I dedicated my senior year to making sure his death was not in vain. I hope I did him justice. After ten months of anticipation, the verdict finally
came yesterday. I was scrolling through my social media feed when I saw a post saying the verdict would be released within the hour. I immediately got a sick feeling in my stomach. My heart started racing and my hands were sweating. A rush of anxiety washed over my body — almost a year of anticipation led to this moment. When I read the verdict would be out soon, I thought back to that humid summer day in July 2013 when George Zimmerman was found not guilty for the murder of Trayvon Martin. That day I was only 13. I did not understand too much about the world. But I knew I was angry. During the hour awaiting the Chauvin verdict I thought about a lot. I thought about George Floyd, his life, his family and
his friends. I thought about my family and friends who look like Floyd and my future son who could as well. At times the world we live in makes me fear bringing a precious Black child into the world. It all feels so unfair. I thought about Floyd calling for his mother. I thought about crying for my own mother as a child and how I would still cry for her now as an adult. It was announced that the verdict would be in between 4:30 and 5 p.m. Once the clock hit 4:30, I felt a rush of panic. The thirty minutes felt like an hour. I paced the same small path in my bedroom, then the judge appeared on the live YouTube stream I was watching. The pacing became stillness, my eyes glued to the small computer scream. As I was waiting for the
judge to announce the verdict, I kept repeating “Please God.” Guilty. On all three counts. I felt instant relief. My heart beat slowed down and the sweat on my hands dissipated. The “Please God” became “Thank you God.” I had a class that started at 5 p.m., and the lesson was policing in America. I joined 15 minutes late because I was watching the news for the verdict. “I am glad you were able to come,” my professor privately messaged me. “We just heard the verdict!!” I messaged back that I was relieved, and she responded with “Yes!!” While I struggle to feel excited, I feel hopeful. I am thankful. But still — none of this seems worth it. jaraferg@iu.edu

Maybe it’s the way the world stops when your sirens turn on that makes the power go to your head. Or maybe it’s the way you know those spinning lights turn all eyes toward you that gets you thinking you’re the best thing since bread got sliced. Or maybe it’s that we lauded you when we were young, that you were smiling on our classroom posters,
in our dated textbooks. A hero on the page. Maybe the power goes to your head cause you imagine yourself a legend, cause you know we tell our children of your great brutality, warn them against you. It makes you big in the chest and you get to thinking you’re the best thing since chocolate and peanut butter. Maybe it’s because you get to thinking we could not survive you.
I mean, survive without you. You are there in our darkest moments, when we call on you in our desperation or when you come find us and bring cracked bones with you. In these moments, you believe you are saving someone. You believe any peaceful neighborhood is quiet because of you and you start thinking you’re the best thing since somebody stumbled over honey.
Officer, sheriff, deputy, whatever title you wear as your great crown, You been tryna eat up our communities, consume our bodies, be nourished by our submission. Well, I hope you’re starting to see there’s a reason you don’t eat bright-colored things in the wild. And there’s a reason you don’t see lambs eating lions. We don’t make good food. I hope you’re starting to see you are not our apex.

Glenn Close costume exhibit to open at Eskenazi Museum By Ellie Albin ealbin@iu.edu | @elliealbin1
The journey of actress Glenn Close’s costume collection coming to the Eskenazi Museum of Art has been eight years in the making. But on May 6, the exhibit will finally open, highlighting pieces from the collection of more than 800 costumes Close gave to IU. “The Art of the Character: Highlights from the Glenn Close Costume Collection” opens May 6 at the Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Museum of Art and will run through Nov. 15. The museum recommends visitors make reservations to avoid long wait times at the door. Kelly Richardson, curator of the Sage Collection at IU, helped put the exhibit together. She said the idea of Close donating her costume collection to IU began in 2013 when Bernice Pescosolido, an IU sociology professor, joined the Science Advisory Board of Close’s mental health nonprofit Bring Change to Mind. “That led to a conversation with Laurie McRobbie about Glenn’s costume collection and the Elizabeth Sage Historic Costume Collection as a possible home for it,” Richardson said. Richardson and Kate Rowold, former Sage Collection director and former associate dean of the Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture and Design, then went to tour the storage facility in
New York where Close’s costumes were being kept.

A costume designed by Glenn Close from the film “Dangerous Liasons” appears. “Art of the Character,” an exhibition displaying Close’s costume work, will begin May 6 at the Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Museum of Art.
After Richardson and Rowold wrote a proposal for the costume collection to be brought to IU, Close took a tour of the Auxiliary Library Facility at IU in 2017 and discussed how students could learn from and work with her costumes with the leaders of the project. “She liked what she saw, and the costumes arrived on campus in late 2017,” Richardson said. The process of putting the exhibit together has taken time. As soon as the collection arrived on campus, talks of a public exhibit were in the works, but work began in earnest in 2018,
Richardson said. “When IU sent out a press release about our acquisition of the collection and its arrival on campus, my inbox and voicemail blew up,” Richardson said. “It was clear that the public wanted to see these iconic costumes in person.” As the exhibit was being put together, Close became invested in it and has been a positive influence throughout the years, Richardson said. “She’s great,” Richardson said. “Glenn’s been quite involved in the exhibition planning process and has been a pleasure to talk to and worth with. She’s totally invested in making sure that the work of costume designers is recognized and is very supportive of the exhibition.” On a project like this, Richardson said students and volunteers normally help. But because of the coronavirus pandemic, most of the preparation work was completed by Richardson, her assistant and Galina Olmsted, assistant curator of American and European Art at the Eskenazi Museum. “Limited access to the building and to costume storage due to COVID-19 precautions was one of the most challenging aspects of the project,” Olmsted said. “But thanks to campuswide collaboration and constant Zoom meetings, we were able to pull it together.”

Jacobs e-concerts celebrate music from African diaspora By Saab Sahi sssahi@iu.edu
The Jacobs School of Music at IU offers an econcert series focused on spotlighting music of the African diaspora in the field of classical music with different guests every Wednesday. The performances are available at the series site. This week’s guest will be Fernando Garcia on piano, and they will play African
American composer Margaret Bonds’ “Spiritual Suite.” Margaret Bonds was well-known for her collaboration with the Harlem Renaissance poet Langston Hughes, as well as her piece “Troubled Water” that features as the final movement of the “Spiritual Suite.” Last week’s guest was Yoshino Toi, who played Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson’s Baroque style “Toc-
cata.” This e-concert series hopes to honor and bring attention to the many musicians of the African diaspora that might have been forgotten otherwise, according to its website. The series is sponsored by the Jacobs School of Music piano department, the IU Arts and Humanities Council, the Jacobs Diversity and Equity Committee and the MTNA Collegiate Chapter at IU.
Black Bloomington artists to install Black Lives Matter mural By Nadia Scharf njscharf@iu.edu | @nadiaascharf
Another Black Lives Matter street mural was approved April 13 by Bloomington’s Board of Public Works. It will be installed on West Sixth Street on the north side of the downtown square, and the installation date is tentatively set for June 5. The mural was scheduled to be installed Saturday but was canceled due to rain. Designed by local black artists Christina Elem and Raheem Elmore, the mural will depict the words “Black Lives Matter” in yellow and pan-African colors: black, green and red. While Elem said she couldn’t give away the full design, she described it as simple but impactful. This is the second of two murals the city planned and budgeted for last year as part of a response to police violence, according to a press release about the event. Both projects were funded with municipal dollars originally budgeted for the Black y Brown Arts Festival, a multi-day arts festival that was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The first, which also shows the words “Black Lives Matter” in a panAfrican color scheme, was installed Oct. 24, 2020, on North Elm Street and was dedicated on Nov. 13 the same year. It was also painted by Elem and Elmore with volunteer help. “Having volunteers come out and it not just being Black people or people of color come out but literally all different types of people with different backgrounds coming out to say ‘Black lives matter’ was very unifying and very special,”

A Black Lives Matter mural appears on North Elm Street. A second BLM mural is tentatively set for installation June 1 on the square in Bloomington.
Elem said. This project does not include the People’s Park mural, which was painted over with the words Black Lives Matter last summer. Erik Pearson is a program and facility coordinator for the Banneker Community Center, which is led by the Department of Parks and Recreation. He said that the message this mural is meant to send isn’t complicated: that Black lives matter in Bloomington. “We wanted to recognize that our process of
becoming more inclusive and equitable is ongoing,” Pearson said, “We’re constantly learning from the other community members and hoping to bring people to the table so that we continue to grow and progress in support of BIPOC residents.” Mayor John Hamilton made a statement promoting the installation of the mural. He said the mural represented the community values of equality, inclusion and justice, according to a press release from the city.
While Pearson said he hadn’t seen opposition to the murals, comments on the Facebook post announcing the first mural’s completion included accusations of racism against white people and terrorism. Beverly Calender-Anderson, director of the Community and Family Resources Department, acknowledged that people may not understand why the mural’s message is needed, but that it’s important nonetheless. She said those who dismiss the phrase “Black lives matter’’
in favor of “all lives matter” don’t understand why the distinction is important. “People don’t understand that diversity is more than numbers,” CalenderAnderson said. “It’s if you feel welcome, if you feel like you’re a part of the community and you have an equal voice in the community. It has to do with us all coexisting in a peaceful way and feeling that we belong.” Others on Facebook, though, agreed with the mural, and some even en-

couraged policy changes to better support people of color in the community. Elem agreed more change has to be made but said the murals are a place to start. “Of course a mural by itself isn’t going to do anything, of course there has to be policy change and conversations and real change within the community,” Elem said. “But I think art is powerful, and I think one of the main things it does is it starts conversations, it captures people’s attention. It brings people together.”

NOTHIN’ BUT NAT
Vaccines help prevent COVID-19, but they can’t prevent anxiety Natalie Gabor (she/her) is a junior in journalism.
If I thought I was anxious before, the COVID-19 pandemic said “You want to see some real speed?” Catastrophizing is part of my typical routine anyway, so a deadly pandemic only compounded my daily stream of (anxious) consciousness. Though I’ve seen a handful of friends here and there at safe distances or after negative testing, I’ve long dreamed of going to restaurants and large indoor gatherings once again. I understand some people have been engaging in those activities throughout the pandemic — and that’s their right, as long as they are following local and state guidelines. Personally, however, large gatherings continuously give me shortness of breath and heart palpitations. The vaccine was supposed to change that. But I’m still skeptical. I’m not skeptical about whether the vaccine actually works — I trust the science. But I’ve been living in this state of fear since last March. My anxiety has even led to quiet disapproval of others, even though previously dangerous activities are slowly becoming safer. Am I being paranoid? Truthfully, no. I’m not
being paranoid. Many people are nervous about post-pandemic gatherings because the world has endured a collective sustained trauma for more than a year now, inducing looming threats of anxiety and nervousness about becoming infected or infecting others. Post-traumatic stress disorder can arise because a traumatic event — like the COVID-19 pandemic — often triggers a heightened emotional response in humans. This likely developed as an evolutionary advantage to avoid danger, but it can extend beyond what is actually necessary for survival. Symptoms of PTSD, anxiety and depression are exacerbated among people with preexisting psychiatric disorders: A survey of 2,000 hospitalized outpatients in China found 20.9% saw intensified symptoms throughout the pandemic. So then where does that leave me, a moderately anxious person who has been fully vaccinated? I’ve received mixed reactions from friends and family when I describe my anxiety about places reopening and events resuming. Some are understanding, but others are somewhat confused. If I’m protected against COVID-19, what do I have to be afraid of? Regardless, I’ve just been

taking life at my own pace. I’ve assessed each situation and its level of risk as it arises. For example, I’ve eaten at two restaurants indoors — something I never would’ve considered only a few months ago. I even attended my cousin’s outdoor wedding after most attendees and I got vaccinated. Though I was extremely nervous and suffered a mild panic attack, I came out unscathed and without the
novel coronavirus. But at the end of the day, it’s really nobody else’s business how I, or how others, decide to reenter the world. Because it will take time for vaccinated people to emerge from the trauma, starting slow and getting your feet wet may be the key, according to Monica Gandhi, professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. I don’t recommend vaccinated people act reckless-
OLIVIA’S OPINION
ly and defy local mandates, as vaccination is a privilege not everyone has been afforded. However, I do recommend forgiving yourself for engaging in small — but safe — acts of normalcy even though feelings of reservation are still valid. If the pandemic has taught me anything, it’s how truly varied societal perceptions may be. Personally, I’ve found it hard to separate my anxieties from my judgment of
others. But I’m working on it. Something that makes me anxious may not incite the same feeling in others. And because I’m an imperfect college student, I have also engaged in various risky behaviors. I don’t have any room to judge someone else for doing something I’d likely forego. All I ask is that others do the same and refrain from judging me. natgabor@iu.edu
SPEAKING OF SEX
Transitioning to in-person classes will be harder than we think Olivia Franklin (she/her) is a sophomore in journalism.
Many students were excited when they heard that classes in fall 2021 were going to be in person. No more Zoom lectures and breakout rooms, just lecture halls and classrooms. We’ve had a year of just having to roll out of bed and get on Zoom, but now we’re going to be expected to get up early, get ready and go to class. In-person classes require more effort — physically and mentally — than online classes do, so we need to be prepared. Take the time to figure out how you’re going to be ready in every way possible, and don’t feel bad if it takes a while to adjust to everything. Students that experienced in-person classes before the COVID-19 pandemic will need some time to transition back to their old routines. With prior experience of how in-person classes are in college, upperclassmen have an advantage over the current freshmen. “Even if we did have normal in-person classes this year, it’s always difficult for the freshmen because they have to figure out how long it takes to walk from one building to another but now they’re going to have to be doing that their sophomore year,” junior Hannah Drilling said. The freshmen this year have not experienced fully inperson classes yet in college, so they won’t know how to prepare. Many of them don’t even know their way around
campus because they haven’t had to walk around to find out where their classes are. Next year, there will be two classes that are going to be lost while trying to navigate the campus. “I’m going at it blind because no one has really prepared me for in-person classes in college,” freshman Ivy Clarke said. “I’ll probably just look at the syllabus for every class and a map to see where all of my classes will be.” Students who had classes in person before the pandemic have the advantage of generally knowing what to expect. But even they won’t know what to expect from professors when classes resume in the fall. “Some professors haven’t been as forgiving with this process, and I feel like they’ll be like ‘you’ve had a year off,’ so they’re not going to ease us back into it,” Drilling said. Many professors changed the format of their exams this year to fit with online classes. Some gave students a few days to take an exam so they could take it when it was most convenient for them, and others made their exams open-note. Next year, exams will go back to being in person as well. “I’m concerned about exams and homework because I have no experience with inperson exams,” Clarke said. “All of my exams have been open-note and I can take them whenever I want during a specific time frame.” Students should start thinking now about adjustments they’re going to have to make next semester. Simple
things like figuring out which buses will take you to where you need to go, how early you need to get up to make it to class on time and even how to have a better attitude. “Personally I’m trying to take every day with a more positive attitude than I did before COVID because I feel like time is very precious and we’ve lost so much of it during COVID,” Drilling said. “You’ll have sad days sometimes, but I’m trying really hard to get over trivial things that upset me because time here at IU is short and you don’t want to waste it being negative.” Even though next semester will be challenging, there are also other things to look forward to. Classes going back in person means that students can meet new people and make new friends, something that was not easy to do in a pandemic. Everyone missed out on a year of fun, in-person events around campus and opportunities to get involved. “I’m honestly really excited to see new people and meet new people,” Clarke said. “I haven’t been able to see people and go to events yet so I’m excited to do that next year.” When next semester starts, don’t feel badly if you’re struggling to adjust because all of us are going to be in the same boat. Don’t be scared to ask someone where a building is, and if you see someone struggling ask them if they need help. We’re all in this together. orfrankl@iu.edu

Can women really have multiple orgasms? Taylor Harmon (she/her) is a sophomore in sexuality, gender and reproductive health.
“Can women really have multiple orgasms? Really? How? Seems fake.” The female orgasm has historically been an elusive part of female sexuality. It has gone from having its existence denied completely to being prescribed as a treatment by doctors for an excess of female sexual desire — also known as hysteria — to being stigmatized in today’s society. One effect of societal attitudes toward the female orgasm is a phenomenon known as the “orgasm gap,” which refers to the fact that in heterosexual encounters, cisgender men tend to have more orgasms than cisgender women. In fact, according to a study conducted by the American Sociological Review in 2012, only 8% of cisgender women report having an orgasm in a heterosexual encounter. Psychology Today suggests the orgasm gap exists for a myriad of reasons, including a double standard when it comes to attitudes toward sex with regard to men versus women, as well as a lack of knowledge about women’s orgasms and a lack of pleasure-based sex education. Dr. Debby Herbenick, a human sexuality professor in the School of Public Health, is one of the many sexuality professionals working to dispel sexuality myths and close the orgasm gap through education. “I think sexuality is rarely talked about in genuine, authentic ways,” Herbenick said. “Taking a human sexuality
class can help people learn fact-based information about sex — including orgasm — and, very importantly, can help grow students’ comfort talking about sexuality topics.” Although a penile orgasm has taken priority over a vaginal orgasm for centuries, Herbenick said the two are remarkably similar. “Everyone actually starts out with the same kinds of ‘parts’ in terms of genital tissue, they just become differently organized as fetuses develop,” Herbenick said. “And, of course, we all have nerves and brains. That said, everyone’s body is a little different which is pretty fascinating.” It is much more common for people with vaginas to have multiple orgasms than for people with penises to have multiple orgasms. Contrary to how it sounds, multiple orgasms do not mean there is more than one orgasm happening at the same time. “Multiple orgasms refers to more than one orgasm, generally with continued stimulation — though it doesn’t necessarily mean one right after the other, people can and do sometimes take ‘breaks’ between orgasms,” Herbenick said. “People with penises rarely have multiple orgasms, but for some it is possible.” This is because people with penises have a refractory period, which is the time between one ejaculation and the ability to ejaculate again, Herbenick said. This time period is often shorter at a young age. Due to a lack of pleasurebased sex education, many people with vaginas worry that they are unable to reach
orgasm. While it is typical for vaginal orgasms to take more time to reach than penile orgasms, most people are able to achieve orgasm, Herbenick said. When it comes to cisgender women, Herbenick said it is common to take time to learn how to experience orgasm, and it is not unusual for them to still be learning well into their 20s. “I encourage people to explore their bodies on their own and to focus on pleasure rather than orgasm,” Herbenick said. “Orgasm will be easiest when a person feels sexually turned on or aroused, open to pleasure, and with the time, space and relaxation to explore those pleasures.” Whether it be through solo, group or partnered stimulation, orgasms and sexual pleasure — especially for people with vaginas — is normal, valid and good for you. By continuing to educate, we can hopefully close the orgasm gap and change the narrative that vaginal orgasms are less important than penile orgasms.

stairs in my pajamas for that class — and that being OK,” she said. “I remember just wanting to listen to him and hear his perspective.” Barrows said Ziegler was always around for students. She said when she told Ziegler she had been failing remedial math in her freshman year, he told her he knew she was a hard worker and made her an appointment to see if she had a learning disability. “He didn't even say anything to me, but the next time I went in, I found out he'd made me an appointment,”
she said. “And he actually took me. We walked there together.” Barrows was diagnosed with dyscalculia, a learning difficulty affecting the ability to do basic arithmetic, according to the National Center for Learning Disabilities. She said the diagnosis was life changing because math had been a major source of embarrassment for her. “He believed in me so much, and took his time to do that for me,” she said. “I think he would have just done it for anyone.” Rahsaan Bartet, Ziegler’s
godson and class of 2005 alumnus, said Ziegler always took the time to care for his students. He said Ziegler hand wrote letters to every incoming Collins student and would invite students to his home for his famous brownies. Bartet said during a road trip, a man experiencing homelessness in St. Louis asked Ziegler for a cup of coffee for him and his wife, and Ziegler invited them for dinner at a local restaurant. “He just wanted to help people figure out their space and time in life,” he said.
“And whatever he could do to help, he would do that, no matter who you were.” Class of 2002 alumnus Jeramy Foltz lived at Collins for four years. He said in his freshman year, Foltz bought a Santa Claus outfit to wear at the LLC’s annual Dickens Dinner, an homage to former President Herman B Wells’ tradition of donning a Santa suit around Christmas. Foltz said he told Ziegler about his idea and explained he didn’t want to spoil the surprise by asking the Collins arts council for money for candy canes, and
Ziegler immediately appreciated the idea. “He goes, ‘You’re right,’ and he pulled out $20 and said, ‘Don’t spend your money on candy canes,’” Foltz said. Foltz said Ziegler was caring and thoughtful, personalities that make Ziegler a man who influences many people’s lives. “Nothing makes him happier than being the conduit by which others succeed,” he said. “He’s probably the closest person I’ve ever met to an in-person Mr. Rogers, or a Bob Ross.”
more than supply issues, she said. “We are seeing that across the state, and you can listen even to the national news,” Caudill said. “So while there is still demand for the vaccine, there are some folks who have not yet taken advantage of that.” Shockey said he is seeing reluctance to receive the vaccine in Indiana and Monroe County. The vaccination rates are higher in some areas than others. “We also have a ruralurban separation as well for vaccines,” he said. “In the urban areas, it [the vaccination rate] is much higher than it is in the rural areas.” Shockney said he is seeing this trend of reluctance in
the IU Health South Central Region, in which Bloomington is included. Violations Gathering Restrictions This past week, police broke up a serious violation of the county’s gathering restrictions, Mayor John Hamilton said. “We had to break up a party of hundreds of people,” he said. “Police were called. It was broken up.” The party was held at an apartment complex on Walnut Street, Hamilton said. Hamilton expressed concern that parties will lead to further rise in cases and hospitalizations throughout the Bloomington community. “The fact that our fellow residents chose to do that is
alarming,” Hamilton said. “I hate to be so serious, but I am very concerned that we are going the wrong direction now. IU-B COVID Response Unit Lead Kirk White said IU will deal with violations of city and university guidelines on a case-by-case basis, but students can and will face consequences from the university. “When we learn we have members of the university community that violate guidelines, they're reported to the Bloomington police or to the IU Police Department,” he said. “Those reports are then sent on to our dean of students.” White said the dean of students has scheduled dis-
ciplinary hearings for students as early as Friday afternoon for students who have recently violated COVID-19 guidelines.
ing to be able to get back to normal operations,” he said. “Without that, it's going to be questionable. So that's why this vaccine effort is so important now and throughout the summer.” The university will give enough notice to students should vaccinations be required, White said. The University of Maryland joined Rutgers University Friday morning in mandating COVID-19 vaccinations for the fall. “Our university community should take advantage of this easy opportunity to go to Assembly Hall and get your shot now,” White said. “That'll protect you for the fall.”

The IU Board of Trustees voted to rename Jordan Hall, the Jordan River, the Jordan parking garage and a section of North Jordan Avenue in October 2020. They are now named Biology Building, Campus River and East Parking Garage, respectively. IU did not select a new name for the section of North Jordan Avenue. IU has
the authority to rename the extension north of 17th Street, but the city has the authority to rename the section south of 17th Street, the release said. “Together with IU, the city is committed to promoting inclusion and equity in our community, and can not continue to honor a historical figure who so clearly opposed those values,” Hamilton said in the release. “We recognize that this change may be a temporary inconvenience, but the action is necessary to stand clearly together in
denouncing racial discrimination and its legacies, and ensuring everyone feels welcome on our streets.” After the task force proposes new street names, the Bloomington Plan Commission will hold a public hearing and will notify residents of the proposed names at least 30 days prior to the hearing. The Bloomington Plan Commission will vote to adopt the new names which will take effect, if passed, no sooner than 90 days after the vote.
Will IU require vaccinations? White could not answer whether or not IU would require a COVID-19 vaccination for the fall semester, though he did say IU is looking into whether that is the proper path. IU is planning to return to normal operations in the fall, with most courses being in person. White said the key element of returning to normal operations is a high vaccination rate in the community. “With high percentage of vaccination, we're go-

Black history must be more valued in education ILLUSTRATION BY DONYÁ COLLINS | IDS
By Jaclyn Ferguson jaraferg@iu.edu
I sat in AP U.S. history class my junior year of high school during the lesson on the civil rights movement and the years following it. I had cautious optimism the history teacher might get it right this time, despite being a white man. The last and only time I had a Black social studies teacher was in eighth grade. His name was Mr. McDaniel. He was tall and skinny, and he always wore khakis with a bright-colored collared shirt. Except for Fridays, when he wore a running T-shirt — he was also the track coach. Mr. McDaniel always taught history in a way that felt real, not watered down. He was funny, yet always seemed to teach history the right way. The correct way. I sat in the front right corner of that class in 2015, reading the “McGraw Hill American History” textbook that made it seem like after Martin Luther King, Jr., all of the systemic racism in the world was suddenly fixed. That is not possible. The history book had a picture of former President Barack Obama after he won the election in 2008. The context made it seem like racial inequalities in America were fixed in the blink of an eye. The election of Obama was viewed as the end of racism and the beginning of a colorblind society. This narrative is incorrect and harmful. That civil rights unit in high school was not the only case where I had had an off-setting feeling in my stomach about how history was being taught. When we talked about slavery in elementary through high school, we really only touched on the fact that enslaved people were taken from Africa, brought to America for their free labor and were whipped. While all of those facts are true, what about the rape of Black women by their slave masters? What about the countless Black men and boys who were lynched by white mobs? A 2018 study by the Southern Poverty Law Center, titled “Teaching Hard History,” found only 8% of high school students could identify slavery as the central cause of the Civil War. Only 46% knew what the Middle Passage was, and 32% knew which amendment formally ended slavery. Textbooks do not do an adequate job of teaching history. According to a rubric created by the Southern Poverty Law Center, the average score calculating the number of textbooks properly covering slavery was 46%. The rubric included 10 categories, such as causes of the Civil War and the effect slavery has on contemporary racism. For each category, the textbooks analyzed were given a score from 0 to 3 — 0 being no coverage and 3 being in-depth coverage. The highest score was 70%. The United States was built on the backs of slaves, but history books rarely reflect this reality. My grandmother had al-
ways been an avid historyteller. She would often sit around the living room with my sisters and me, informing us of the hardships she went through as a Black woman growing up in the 1960s. She marched in Washington, D.C. to fight to have Martin Luther King, Jr. Day recognized as a national holiday. This always reminded me that I’m not so far removed from the history many perceive as long ago. *

funding. In the past decade, the number of AAADS majors has averaged 13 students in the undergraduate program, according to data from College of Arts and Sciences Executive Dean Rick Van Kooten. This year, there are 13 undergrad students pursuing the minor. AAADS department Chair Carolyn Calloway-Thomas said she would

I was 12 years old when I first realized that supposedly long-ago history was still going on today. Trayvon Martin was killed on Feb. 5, 2012. That day, I felt sick to my stomach. That was my first time seeing and understanding how inhumane someone could be treated because of the color of their skin. My eyes were glued to the news in the following weeks. I read articles and educated myself on the killing, and on what it meant for America. One hot humid day during the summer of 2013, I was sitting in my neighbor’s house waiting for the verdict for George Zimmerman, Martin’s killer. I sat anxiously on the edge of a worn brown leather couch. The house was full of the smell of cigarettes, and my eyes were glued to the television. In my 21 years of life, that was one of the few times where I remember what all five of my senses felt in a particular moment. The memory still feels eerily vivid. Not guilty. My stomach turned. My heart started racing. My hands were sweaty. I could not fathom the hate — but as a preteen, I truly realized just how devastating racism is in America. And I knew I wanted to do all I could to make a real difference. *
department. They were either unavailable or full. Toward the beginning of college, I was able to sign up for courses without difficulties, but that changed around the end of my sophomore year. For the minor, 15 credit hours are required, with nine in a specific concentration. That doesn’t sound too hard, right? To complete the minor,

While African American and African Diaspora studies courses have provided me with a formal education, they also provided a real-world look into a lack of attention paid by education systems to Black history. Coming to college, I wanted to be intentional about educating myself more on Black history. I always knew I wanted to make an effect in diversity, equity and inclusion — and immersing myself in Black history would aid in doing that by increasing my knowledge on the history of race. If I was not intentional, it would not happen, because the education system is set up to ignore Black History. When I started my freshman year at IU, I declared a minor in AAADS. The department focuses on exploring facets of African-American and African people through a variety of lenses including politics, sociology, history and literature. The courses combine historical and current events to create meaningful lessons on Black people and those of African descent. But I ran into a problem. I typically had difficulties signing up for courses in the

a specific literature course, AAAD-A 379, Early Black American Writing, is required. But it was not offered every semester I tried to sign up, and the class quickly filled up. I panicked because I was not sure when I was going to be able to take it but knew I needed to. Each semester I tried to sign up to take the class, it was full, and I often attempted to get on the waitlist. I was never taken off the waitlist, so I knew I had to take matters into my own hands to figure out how I could complete my minor with the least amount of stress possible. There is clear value in the class, and I wanted other students and myself to be able to have it. *

In an interview with the Indiana Daily Student in March, Valerie Grim, director of AAADS undergraduate studies and professor of AAADS, explained struggles and successes in the department. In March, Grim told the IDS the department needs more funding to build strong programs and attract and support more students and faculty. Grim also said the department needs more faculty listed only in the AAADS department. If this happens, there would be less division of faculty and improvements in the number of credit hours taken in the department, which would support increased
like to see more than 100 students majoring or minoring in the department in the next year, according to the article. I was nervous as I went to the eighth floor of Ballantine Hall, about to speak to Grim about the situation with my minor. I knew I had to be assertive but did not want to come across as complaining because I really do enjoy what I am able to learn through the program. Grim, the program director, welcomed me into her small, office lined with bookshelves filled with history books. She was incredibly welcoming, and made me feel like I could be open. When I took my backpack off and sat in a chair next to her computer in the office, Grim asked how I was doing and how she could help. After discussion, she informed me it is not uncommon for students to have to make changes to their course work to fulfill the major or minor. Although I was slightly relieved I was not being a total inconvenience, I was concerned that so many other students struggle with the same situation as I did. Grim said I was able to use a different course I had already taken, AAAD-A 249: African American Autobiographies, to fulfill the requirement instead. While I, too, would like to see 100 people with the major and minor, I struggle to understand how that could be possible, informed by my
own difficulties signing up for classes. *

African American Autobiographies, the class that replaced Early Black American Writing for me, changed my perspective on history and how real the brutalities on slavery are in America. I knew slaves were treated horribly, but the grave inhumanity of the captors struck me in a deeper way than ever before. I was sitting in my African American Autobiographies course at 9 a.m. in 2018 and I was tired, especially after the 20-minute walk from my dorm. But I was ready to learn. In the class, we usually read novels about historical figures from the Black community such as Frederick Douglass and Maya Angelou. The day’s reading assignment — direct accounts of enslaved peoples experiences on the trans-Atlantic slave trading routes — is one of few very specific moments sitting in a classroom I will never forget. One account was about a woman who gave birth on a ship floor. The floor was covered in fecal matter, vomit and decomposing bodies. She was alone, yet bonded with the others on the ship, who were feeling the same pain and suffering as she was. After she had the baby, it was thrown into the sea by a captor. The baby could not provide physical labor, so it meant nothing to the captors, who I struggle to call people. The rest of class, I felt sick to my stomach. My mind could not fathom the pain, nor how someone could do something so inhumane. I was usually one to participate in class, but I was silent for the remaining 30 minutes. I could not articulate anything. I could only feel pain for my ancestors. “Black Panther” came out my freshman year of college, during the same semester I took the class. At the end of the movie, there was a scene
“People are so used to thinking this watereddown version of history is the truth, they do not even realize it is wrong. This is still a form of racism.” - Jaclyn Ferguson
where Killmonger, the movie’s antagonist and cousin of the Black Panther, said, “Bury me in the ocean, with my ancestors that jumped from the ships, because they knew death was better than bondage.” Sitting in the movie theater, I thought back to that class and wondered if I would be strong enough to choose
life if I were on a ship, knowing I was going to be sold and tortured. It made me feel for my ancestors. Do I have a relative who chose the sea? That class proved to be the power in the AAADS department. I felt more connected to my ancestors — like I had a glimpse into their pain, and ultimately their sacrifice that allowed me to even be sitting in that class, at a university. While most of me felt lucky to have all of these opportunities they did not, another part of me felt unworthy. I likely had ancestors who were slaves. They could have been on these ships, watching their family members be sold away to other plantations. Yet here I was, taking a class at a prestigious university. They gave the ultimate sacrifice, and I will never really be able to put into words what that means to me. There is power in knowing the often undermined truth. While this issue may seem subtle, the lack of accessibility to classes like this AAADS course comes down to systemic problems within society. People are so used to thinking this watered-down version of history is the truth, they do not even realize it is wrong. This is still a form of racism. *

Summer 2020 served as a great awakening for many people who had not recognized the racial injustice that plagued the United States before. While the racial awakening is a positive development, one question keeps circulating in my mind: What took so many people so long to understand? On May 13, 2020, I published a column for the IDS titled “Black men should not be forced to be martyrs.” I was completely unaware of what was about to take place less than two weeks later. In the column, I mentioned a powerful quote from a poet, Jasmine Mans: “My son will not be a martyr for a war he never asked for.” George Floyd unwillingly became a martyr May 25, 2020. His death in itself proves the cyclical nature of the war against Black Americans. It should not take people dying for people to understand the racism that is deeply ingrained in America and the devastating effects it has on the Black community. It should not take a man being murdered on camera for someone to realize racism exists in America. A way to allow people to recognize the atrocities sooner is through proper education. In order for people to receive proper education and know the truth, classes must be offered and available for students to take. Programs such as AAADS are critical in educating the community on the realities of life for Black Americans since the slaves were first brought to America from Africa in 1619. But these great programs aren’t enough if you can’t enroll in them, and it’s even worse in places where these don’t exist.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
IU’s Berger named finalists USA FIBA AmeriCup Team By William Coleman wicolema@iu.edu | @WColeman08
After leading the Hoosiers on an improbable run to the Elite Eight for the first time to punctuate the continued success of the IU women’s basketball program, junior guard Grace Berger made some history of her own. Berger was one of 20 college players to have accepted an invitation last week to compete for a spot on the 2021 USA Women’s Basketball AmeriCup Team roster from March 18-21 at University of South Carolina. Wednesday night, she was named one of 13 finalists to make the team coached by Hall of Fame player and coach Dawn Staley. The finalists return for a training camp June 1 to solid-
ify the 12-player team that will represent the United States this summer in the 2021 FIBA Women’s AmeriCup in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The tournament runs June 11-19, and the top four teams clinch spots in a qualifying tournament for the 2022 FIBA World Cup in Australia. Berger is familiar with some of her potential teammates, including Maryland guards Ashley Owusu and Diamond Miller, Northwestern guard Veronica Burton and Michigan forward Naz Hillmon. At the 2019 Paradise Jam, Berger faced both South Carolina guard Destanni Hednerson and Baylor University forward NaLyssa Smith. University of Kentucky guard Rhyne Howard helped drop IU to 2-1 on December 6 and
North Carolina State University center Elissa Cunane lost to Berger and the Hoosiers 73-70 in the Sweet 16. She first gained attention after recording three tripledoubles to lead the country this regular season and received even more national recognition when she averaged 16 points, 7.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game across IU’s tournament run. “When you watch Grace, there are a few things that you figure out quickly,” head coach Teri Moren said March 24 after IU’s second-round win over Belmont University. “One, she is an exceptional ball handler. Two, that she is exceptional at midrange. The thing that I love the most about Grace Berger is how competitive she is.”

SOFTBALL
Jenkins reflects on setting stolen bases record 45th or the 86th, or even the one stealing home.” After the COVID-19 pandemic canceled the 2020 NCAA softball season, the team had time to reflect on what each individual could accomplish this season. It was then that Jenkins realized how close she was to the record of 90 stolen bases set by former third baseman Aimee Lonigro from 1994-97. “It wasn’t a goal of mine at the start of my career as it wasn’t in sight,” Jenkins continued. “But this summer, we did a study of our record book during our downtime due to COVID-19. It then caught my eye that I only needed 19 more bases.” Since the Purdue series, Jenkins has stolen two more bases to make the program record 93 and taken the lead in the Big Ten for doubles with 13 this season. Jenkins said that head

It was the second game of a doubleheader on April 9 at Bittinger Stadium in West Lafayette, Indiana. IU softball was taking on Purdue for another edition of the Crimson and Gold series. Senior left fielder Gabbi Jenkins was on second base after hitting a double during the top of the seventh inning. A pass ball let up by Purdue junior catcher Kaeley Hallada gave Jenkins the opportunity to steal third base. At that moment, she slid into third and set the program’s stolen bases record with the 91st of her career. “Well the 91st one was kind of anticlimactic,” Jenkins said. “More of what goes through my mind are the hard fought ones or the ones from first to second. It was so much less about the moment of the 91st than it was the 37th or
coach Shonda Stanton knew the number relatively, but was going to make sure that she would break the record by end of the season. “She’s a very detail-oriented person,” Jenkins said. “Once we both knew the exact number, I knew the steal sign was coming a lot and that was the weekend I stole six bases against Rutgers.” Stanton, who was named the ninth head coach in program history after the 2017 season, said Jenkins is one of the most unique human beings she’s ever been around “You won’t find a more unique and special 18-22 year old that is so passionate about building relationships.” Stanton said. “She’s a Hoosier through and through” Jenkins said she was humble about the new record she set, but her teammates were ready to celebrate and congratulate her on breaking the
25-season-old record. “Gabbi perfectly encapsulates what it means to work hard and have a goal,” senior infielder Grayson Radcliffe said. “She’s a very humble person. Even on Sunday when the Golden Shoe award was presented, she made an analogy saying ‘there’s no me without you guys’ and she made the moment about the team more so than herself.” Originally from Floyds Knobs, Indiana, Jenkins grew up an IU fan. Her family have been men’s basketball season ticket holders since they graduated from IU. She said being at IU and getting to wear the jersey each day means more to her than anything else. “Being from Indiana makes this special, but it doesn’t just have to be breaking a record or anything like that, but repping the Indiana script is something I value highly and love,” Jenkins said.

IU rounds into form at right time, has won 7 of last 8 games By Luke Lusson
starting to play their best baseball of the season at the right time. Since suffering a five-game losing streak from March 29 to April 4, IU has won seven of its last eight and is currently riding a fourgame winning streak. The latest example of IU’s dominance came this weekend in a series sweep at home against Minnesota. The Hoosiers put on both a hitting and pitching display all weekend, scoring a whop-

Heading into the season, the IU baseball team was considered one of the favorites to win the Big Ten. Now, more than half way through the season, the Hoosiers find themselves in contention for the conference title. IU is in second place at 18-8, behind only Nebraska at 20-7.

ping 39 runs in three games and only allowing five. The series sweep included a 23-1 thumping from IU in the series finale on Sunday. “We played good baseball this weekend,” Mercer said after Sunday’s blowout win. “You could see some of those things coming.
