Anyone in Indiana will now be able to text 911 for emergency assistance, in what the Federal Communications Commission is calling next-generation 911 capabilities. The Indiana Statewide 911 Board has announced a public safety initiative that will enable everyone who lives or travels in Indiana direct access to emergency services via text message. Indiana is the second state to offer this service. For now the service is only available to those with Verizon Wireless service. The nation’s three other preeminent wireless companies, T-Mobile, Sprint and AT&T, are expected to provide this service in the upcoming weeks. The public should only communicate with 911 dispatchers via text messages if they’re unable to speak because of a medical condition or if speaking would be unsafe. Using a phone to call 911 is still the most efficient way to contact emergency services, said Barry Ritter, executive director of the Statewide 911 Board. To emphasize the importance of using the most efficient method during emergencies, the 911 Board introduced the slogan “B 4 U TXT 911 VOICE is best,” to correspond with the introduction of the text-to-911 service. The Statewide 911 Board advises customers using the textto-911 service to provide their location and nature of their emergency in the first text message, since the emergency dispatch centers will only receive an approximate location of the cell phone. Text message abbreviations or slang should never be used so the dialogue is as clear as possible, the Board said. After the emergency dispatch center receives a 911 text, they will attempt to engage in a text conversation to procure as much information as possible, said Jeff Schemmer, Bloomington Police Department communications manager. The text-to-911 service will be beneficial to those who are deaf or speaking-impaired.

Second season begins Done with the regular season, IU looks forward to postseason action BY EVAN HOOPFER ehoopfer@indiana.edu @EvanHoopfer
After IU lost to Indiana State March 26, the Hoosiers’ record fell to 12-10. IU was out of the top 25 polls. It was out of national seed contention. The team, which had been ranked as high as No. 3 in the preseason, was battling injuries and losing close games. Going into that weekend after the Indiana State loss, IU traveled to play Ohio State. “I tell the guys, ‘You’ve seen the light, so it can’t get much worse,’” IU Coach Tracy Smith said at the time. IU went on to sweep Ohio State. Then IU swept Iowa. Then, in the next Big Ten series against Michigan State, the Hoosiers swept the Spartans and were playing some of the best baseball in the country. IU (38-13, 21-3) has continued to play well, and this weekend finished off its regular season hot streak by winning two-of-three against Minnesota (27-22, 13-11). “We knew all along we have something bigger to play for,” first baseman Sam Travis said.

Since the Indiana State loss, IU is 26-3, and all three of those losses have come by just one run. The Hoosiers are back in the top 10 in several rankings, checking in at No. 9 in the Baseball America rankings. During the first two games of the series, where IU and Minnesota split victories, Smith said he felt his team was flat and maybe
SNAAP at IU receives national grants for research FROM IDS REPORTS
The National Endowment for the Arts has awarded two grants to the Strategic National Arts Alumni Project based at IU for the continuation of its work. SNAAP is based at the IU Center for Postsecondary Research, a center of the IU School of Education. According to a press release, SNAAP has surveyed more than 100,000 arts alumni from about 300 American institutions. Surveys include questions on both the educational experiences and career outcomes of each respondent, including relevance of arts training, resource needs, job satisfaction, income and debt. The first grant, worth $20,000, will support a college senior exit survey of both arts and non-arts majors. The exit survey will be administered as part of the National Survey of Student Engagement, the country’s
largest survey of undergraduate experiences. The new study aims to looks at the relationship between undergraduates’ arts or non-arts training and the development of workforce skills, such as creative problem–solving or entrepreneurship. “With this project, we hope to begin to answer the question of how the skills and career aspirations of graduating seniors who major in the arts compare and contrast with their peers in non-arts subjects,” SNAAP director Sally Gaskill said in the release. The second grant, worth $30,000, goes to support the second “3 Million Stories” conference, which will be directed by SNAAP partner Arizona State University. “Ultimately, SNAAP is about telling the stories of the 3 million graduates in the U.S. today,” Gaskill said.

IU under investigation for possible Title IX violations BY JAVONTE ANDERSON ja69@umail.iu.edu @JavonteA
Attorney General Eric Holder met with officials from eight universities in the Washington D.C. area to discuss how to address sexual assault on university campuses across the nation. The gathering was organized to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Violence Against Women Act and concluded an eightday tour organized by the Office of Violence Against Women. The meeting, which took place May 14, came in the wake of the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights releasing a list of 55 colleges under investigation for possible sexual violence violations that includes Ivy League universities, public universities and local colleges. IU and Vincennes University are the only two Indiana
institutions on the federal list. Officials at the meeting exchanged ideas on the successes and shortcomings of their respective plans in confronting sexual assault on their campuses. Catholic University of America was among the universities represented at the meeting that is also under investigation by the DOE. While some colleges’ placement on the list was a result of students filing a Title IX complaint, Mark Land, associate vice president of public affairs and government relations, said IU’s placement on the list was not a consequence of such a complaint. “The DOE is in the process of conducting what it calls a compliance review to take a look at how Bloomington campus handles sexual assault cases and to examine the programs and staffing we have in place to help educate students on the issue and create a safe environment,” Land said.
“This is a cultural problem.” Lt. Craig Munroe, IU police department public information officer
But in 2012, the University had the highest number of sexual assaults reported among universities in the state of Indiana. According to the 2013 IU Annual Security report, 27 sexual assaults were reported on campus in 2012. Vincennes University had three sexual assaults reported. Purdue University and Ball State University, Indiana’s other two major public universities, reported two and eight, respectively. In January, President Barack Obama signed a Presidential Memorandum establishing the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault. The White House task force SEE TITLE IX, PAGE 2

Kelley Executive Partners receives high marks in rank BY ANTHONY BRODERICK aebroder@indiana.edu
Kelley Executive Partners was ranked fourth among all public universities and 16th among all business schools in the United States by The Financial Times, a publication specializing in business news. The partnership was also ranked 35th overall in the world for the second consecutive year in a pool of 6,000 other business programs worldwide. Kelley Executive Partners began in 1968 and is an education arm that represents the Kelley School of Business. Idalene Kesner, dean of the Kelley School, said she is proud of the ranking and hopes the school continues to strive in being a firm center for education. “We are proud that some of the most prominent companies in the world turn to us

for the knowledge and skills that will help them compete more effectively in the global marketplace,” Kesner said. “This Financial Times ranking confirms once again that we are among the best in the world at providing customdesigned executive education programs.” The Kelley School is a strong collaborator with companies in the state. It has provided custom executive programs to corporations such as Cummins, Eli Lilly, Cook Medical, Hill-Rom, Zimmer, Bemis Polyethylene Packaging, Elanco and Deaconess Health System, as well as companies based in states outside of Indiana and abroad. Other corporations also rated Kelley highly on its strong focus on teaching methods, course design, overseas programs, follow-up and overall value for money. The business school’s work
was also recognized May 16 on the Nasdaq stock market’s towering video monitor in New York’s Times Square. Kesner said she felt this banner appearing in Times Square was great publicity and exposure for the Kelley School. Despite the heavy attention on the school, John F. Cady, executive director of Kelley Executive Partners, said he feels the placing is justified. “Kelley has been among the leaders in business education precisely because it has focused on helping its corporate clients achieve their business, as well as their learning outcomes, through executive education,” Cady said. “Through our work with our corporate partners, we ensure that our students are exposed to the knowledge and business practices which allow them to make important contributions to their employers and society at large.”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 aims to accentuate and remedy the prevalence of sexual assault crimes at higher education institutions nationwide. Last month, the White House task force released its first report titled “Not Alone.” “As the name of our new website NotAlone.gov indicates, we are here to tell sexual assault survivors that they are not alone,” the White House task force said in the report. The task force recommended four steps for schools to undertake: identify the scope of the problem on college campuses, help prevent campus sexual assault, help schools respond effectively when a student is assaulted, increase transparency and improve enforcement. Since 1999, the Office of Violence Against Women has spent more than $139 million in projects addressing violence and sexual assault on campuses. Debbie Melloan, a counselor at the University’s Sexual Assault Crisis Services, said she believes schools must also play a role in preventing sexual assault. “We have a responsibility under Title IX to respond to and prevent sexual violence,” Melloan said. “I think we have a good network of services and resources to respond to sexual assault on campus.” The Sexual Assault Crisis Services administers programs to raise awareness and provide information about sexual assault, Melloan said. Additionally, it offers in-

dividual, couples and group counseling for sexual assault victims. Sexual Assault Services also provides a free 24/7 service line for assault victims or victims’ acquaintances. “We’re here to address sexual assault on campus and advocate for not only women, but also men who have also been affected by this,” Melloan said. After becoming aware of the Department of Education’s compliance review in mid-March, the University provided the information requested, Land said. “The campus has not yet received any feedback from the DOE and probably won’t for a few months,” he said Nevertheless, IU administration will continue to address sexual assault on cam-
pus. “This is a vitally important area, and campus takes nothing more seriously than the safety of its students,” Land said. The administration also works closely with IUPD on sexual assault prevention strategies, Land said. Lt. Craig Munroe, the IU Police Department public information officer, said IUPD has a meeting every quarter with all the agencies that might have a sexual assault reported to them. “It’s a collaborative effort, and we try to get a reflection on what’s happening at IU,” Munroe said. IUPD participates in any committees or programs associated with sexual assault, Munroe said. “This is a cultural prob-
lem,” he said. Land said law enforcement offices outside of campus are a big help to IUPD in fixing that problem. “IUPD has a very close relationship with the Bloomington Police Department as well as the Monroe County prosecutor’s office to ensure that sexual assault complaints in and around campus are investigated promptly and thoroughly and, when appropriate, prosecuted vigorously,” Land said. IU appreciates the focus being placed on this issue by President Obama’s administration, Land said. “We are hopeful that this increased emphasis on sexual assault on college campus will help all universities address this issue more effectively,” he said.
McRobbie travels to China, Vietnam FROM IDS REPORTS
IU President Michael McRobbie visited Beijing, China, to open a new IU office Saturday and will return May 30. The new office will establish and renew agreements with higher education institutions of the areas, according to a press release. The trip will also extend to Japan, Singapore, Vietnam and Hong Kong. IU vice president for international affairs David Zaret, IU first lady Laurie Burns McRobbie and IU Foundation president and CEO Dan Smith accompanied him. McRobbie and U.S. Ambassador Caroline Kennedy will meet with leaders of Waseda and Osaka Universities in Japan and will honor the Japan chapter of the IU Alumni Association. They will also present the Thomas Hart Benton Medallion to Tsuyosi Tsutsumi, a former professor of the Jacobs School of Music, according to the press release. McRobbie will manage the launching of the new office, creating another bridge with the universities. He will also present the Hart Benton Medallion to alumnus Vincent Mo, chairman and CEO of SouFun Holdings, according to the release. McRobbie will then travel to Vietnam with David Reingold, executive associate dean of School of Public and Envi-
ronmental Affairs, and SPEA professor Anh Tran. The study of Asia includes more than 20 departments and schools at IU. The teaching of Asian studies is part of the core curriculum for the new School of Global and International Studies. Overall, there are about 5,150 Asian students who make up more than half of the international student enrolled at IU, with 3,500 students from China, 80 students from Hong Kong, 155 from Japan and about 75 students from Vietnam and Singapore, according to a press release. The number of IU students studying in these countries increases each year. On international studies trips, nearly 300 students traveled to China and the other countries McRobbie will visit, according to the press release. These trips are significant for IU, McRobbie said in the release. “Previous trips like this have led to our forging new alliances, and we are confident that our efforts to build bridges with leading institutions in Japan and Vietnam will prove successful,” he said in the release. The trip will be McRobbie’s fifth to China during his presidency, and he will become the first standing IU president to travel to Vietnam. Jessica Campbell

‘Godzilla’ opens to monster success The new “Godzilla” movie opened to massive audiences, netting $93.2 million in the U.S. and $103 million internationally. Despite the huge success, the behemoth was not the biggest summer blockbuster of the year.
It fell just short of “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” which grossed $95 million in its opening week. Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. are already developing a “Godzilla” sequel following the film’s success.

ILLUSTRATION BY STEPHEN KROLL
After college: perceptions vs. reality For college graduates, once the parties are done, family members have flown home and the glow of the festivities has faded, only the sobering realization of adulthood is left. The harsh reality that you actually have to be independen, act responsibly and go to bed at a reasonable hour comes all too fast. But this is nothing new. Eventually every animal grows up and has to battle the elements on its own, carving a new path through history. Some do it after a number of hours, some after years. We’re on the long end of the spectrum, but human brains have a lot of developing to do to flush out our individual strengths and
character. Eventually, we all leave the nest. Still, it seems a lot of people are worried about this fresh batch of young adults. With the economy still recovering, technology increasing and the job market shifting, people are questioning what the future will look like for the new generation of American employees. Eighty-two percent of Americans say they believe this generation is having a tougher time getting jobs than the previous one. Seventy-five percent say saving for the future is tougher, and 71 percent believe paying for college is more difficult. It also appears that young adults are growing up in new
ways. Forty-nine percent of 18 to 34-year-olds have taken a job just to get by. Twenty-four percent have started unpaid internships to broaden their horizons. Young adults are starting life later. More kids are going to college than ever before, which slows entering the workforce, but other shifts are happening as well. Thirty-one percent of young adults have postponed getting married or having a baby. The median age of marriage has increased. Home ownership rates have fallen in the past decade from 43 to 36 percent among young adults. The overall message is pointed in one direction: young adults believe they are
facing an uncertain future, and they are shifting attitudes based on this assumption. Are we truly having a tougher time? The economic boom of the ’90s is gone, but are we that much worse off? The economy is not as strong, but it is recovering. We have new opportunities that the older generations could never have imagined. Is it all in our heads? It also seems this generation sees the future as malleable but is not afraid. Only 9 percent said they believe they won’t make enough money to live their lives fully. Their optimism remains high, even in the face of these changes. What is the relationship between our perceptions and

were placed on the Terrorist Exclusion List far back in 2001, very few, if any, of Kony’s atrocities were committed beyond the Ugandan borders. In this sense, it is a terrorist group or a group that might provide assistance to terrorists, but it has largely left American interests alone. Further, Kony 2012 began as a grassroots movement dedicated to drawing attention to Kony, and it was not the result of a sudden action such as the kidnapping of more than 200 schoolgirls. That’s much more interesting to the American public than a general awareness of a vague child army an ocean away. So, at the very least, the American public will remain interested until the schoolgirls are found. But Boko Haram, whose name literally translates
as “Western education is a sin,” harbors distinctly antiWestern and anti-American views, and it’s more than willing to act upon them. Even once the schoolgirls are found, American interests will still be in danger of terrorist attacks by Boko Haram, so the American government will have to respond to their movements for national security. American intervention with the LRA would be primarily a global peacekeeping action. And let’s be honest — with a possible new al-Qaida springing into existence, I doubt much of the American public would care to focus on global peacekeeping efforts with another terrorist organization on its doorstep, especially one with such a pointed and obvious purpose. So no, I do not believe Boko Haram will become the next Joseph Kony. Their

actions are too bombastic and too extravagant to fade away, and, unlike Kony, their influence is not limited by borders. Further, I believe America is far too cautious to become involved militarily in an unstable country like Uganda, with tenuous connections to America’s wellbeing at the moment. Unlike Kony, should Boko Haram continue spouting antiWestern views and acting violently upon them, I suspect it will become another almost permanent front in America’s war against terrorism. allenjo@indiana.edu @IAmJoshAllen

AN EMMA DILEMMA
Haram 2014: The next Kony 2012? Regarding Boko Haram’s kidnapping of more than 200 schoolgirls a month ago, many people have voiced concerns that this incident will just be a rehash of Kony 2012. Though it is horrible and the girls should clearly be rescued, it will fade from the public mind just like the dictator and his child army. While I do think this is a particularly pessimistic view of the public’s attention span, I admit it isn’t too far from the truth. We like stories that have a proportional beginning, middle and end. So when the middle stretches into years and the end takes place maybe a decade into the future, we lose interest. However, I do not believe this incident will become Haram 2014 and fade away, primarily because it affects America. Though Joseph Kony and his Lord’s Resistance Army
our future? How much of an influence do we have on our own destinies? Chances are what we believe seeps into our actions and partially determines our fate. If we believe we will be crushed by the future, we prepare for the worst and let it happen. If we remain optimistic, we take opportunities and prosper from them. But how much of the future is in our control? We can’t be sure, and if we are too optimistic, it could hurt us. This generation is facing different problems. We are growing up more slowly, taking our time getting ready for the cruel world that lies ahead.

Jobs: realistic, not optimistic Recent studies have shown that we’re all a little more optimistic than we should be. About jobs, I mean. The Pew Research Center conducted a survey to find out how young adults entering the workforce feel about their prospects and the lack of offers in the job market. Eighty-eight percent said they feel great. I hesitate to join them. There are huge economic problems right now, not to mention all the issues we’re beginning to face with Social Security and the Baby Boomers. It doesn’t feel like my generation, nor the few coming before or after mine, really understand what it is we’re getting ourselves into. The way the market is right now, there’s simply not enough room for all of us. The other issue is that Millennials, and I’m using the term extremely broadly, have become used to the idea that they will find a job in their field immediately. I see many of my friends struggling to come to terms with the idea that they might have to accept a receptionist position here or there to make ends meet. However, I don’t necessarily think that this shift in the market is a bad thing. I’ve said before that Millennials and Baby Boomers live in two very different worlds. I think in the job market this is truer than ever. With fast-paced

technology, the change in the value of the dollar and new and emerging fields, Millennials are changing the landscape of the job market and the economy. However, they must be careful. With the recession still fresh in our minds, many of us know first-hand the consequences of credit and inflation. I believe instead of optimistic, the term should be realistic. We must be realistic about our expectations. We must start learning to work our way up a job ladder, not be handed the perfect job on our first try. And we must not be afraid to fail. So many times Millennials feel the mounting pressure of needing to be successful. With a college degree and the opportunities out there, most of us have room to experiment and start from the beginning a time or two before we really figure it out. The global landscape is changing, and we can change with it, but only if we are smart enough to figure it out. ewenning@indiana.edu

Pence proposes Ivy Tech ACA alternative expands in size FROM IDS REPORTS
Governor Mike Pence proposed an expansion of the Healthy Indiana Plan, which would provide health care to thousands of uninsured Indiana citizens. Healthy Indiana Plan 2.0 is the governor’s alternative to the Affordable Care Act, which was introduced by the Obama administration and became effective this past year. The proposal is required to be available for public comment for 30 days before it’s submitted to the federal government for approval. While expanding Medicaid under the ACA is optional for states, 26 states and the District of Columbia have chosen to expand. Critics of the proposed plan say it’s too similar to the ACA, saying it’s technically still accessing billions of federal dollars through Medicaid. However, Pence has made it clear that, unlike the Obama administration, he wishes to change Medicaid, not expand it.
“Nobly created 50 years ago to help the poor and those with disabilities access quality health care, Medicaid has morphed into a bureaucratic and fiscal monstrosity that does less to help low-income people than its advocates claim,” Pence said in his remarks. He said HIP 2.0 would be more consumer-driven, private-market based and cost conscious than the ACA. It would include incentives for people to pull themselves out of poverty, he said, including job training programs. “It is a safety net program that aligns incentives with human aspirations,” he said. “The plan also includes high co-pays for inappropriate ER usage to encourage enrollees to use primary care rather than ER care to manage non-emergent health needs,” he said. The three-pronged program is for those earning up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level.
Workers at Ivy Tech Bloomington began construction of a $24-million expansion project that will add about 85,000 square feet to the campus. The project began Thursday, and it will make changes to the Connie and Steve Ferguson Academic Building on Liberty Drive. A new student commons area will be devoted to students only. The current space is sometimes used for events. It will also annex a former MCL Cafeteria to house Ivy Tech’s culinary program. Ivy Tech Bloomington serves about 6,500 students from six counties in Indiana. Campus representatives said the students have outgrown the space. They began planning the expansion in 2006. The state invested $20 million for the expansion.

IU professors Katy Borner and Norbert Herber worked in close collaboration with Ying-Fang Shen, a visual storyteller, on a film about human communication that has now gained international attention. The film will be shown until May 25 at the Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France. “Humanexus: Knowledge and Communication through the Ages” depicts the ever-accelerating spread of information and communication in the course of human history. The film aims to show changes in the quantity and quality of humans’ collective knowledge and the impact of different media and distribution systems on knowledge exchange, according to the film’s website. The filmmakers said they are expecting this film to start conversations at Cannes. “I am very curious to see how it affects the broad audience I hope to find at Cannes,” sound artist Nor-

bert Herber said in a press release. “‘Humanexus’ was intended to start conversations. That’s what I’m looking forward to most of all.” The film goes through the stone age, agricultural age, machine age, industrial age and continues into the information age of today, producer Katy Borner said in a YouTube video. After a discussion on what to name an animated film about human communication, Shen made the decision to call it “Humanexus.” “My idea was to pick a title that matches but doesn’t reveal too much of the content,” Shen said in an email. Production of the film occurred between 2007 and 2009 after it received funding from the National Science Foundation, Borner said in an email. The storyboard was completed by producer Borner. She started by focusing on cave paintings. “Cave paintings are among the oldest recorded means of human communication,” Borner said. The film was put together by Shen, who handpainted the storyboards

with watercolors before using Flash to create the animation, as seen in the YouTube video. “The animation is all made by me,” Shen said. “For such a one-person animated work, Flash is more doable than many other methods.” The visual storytelling with animation was important for this film, Shen said. “I believe that storytelling is important for all film works, and visual storytelling should be the spirit of animation,” Shen said. After viewing the film, audience members should be able to choose from one of the three futures discussed. Students from both IU and other universities like the films, Herber said. “I have attended screenings in Bloomington and at other universities, and the film is always received well,” Herber said. “Colleagues here at IU tell me that ‘Humanexus’ has made a tremendous impact on their students.” The film will return to Bloomington Sept. 8 for a screening at the IU Cinema.

Carpenter bumps Hinchcliffe to win second straight Indy pole

SPEEDWAY, Ind. — Perfect weekends in Indianapolis are virtually nonexistent, but Ed Carpenter came pretty close. Every time the Indianapolis native took the track during the qualifying stages, he set the quickest time. His Fast Nine four-lap average of 231.067 mph earned him the pole for the 98th running of the Indianapolis 500. “The team did a phenomenal job, just really blessed to have a lot of great people behind me on the team and partners of the team,” Carpenter said. “All their hard work and dedication is what makes a weekend like this worthwhile.” Carpenter was the final driver to qualify, and each time Carpenter passed the start–finish line, his team would relay his lap times. He knew exactly where he stood after each lap in relation to the provisional pole set by James Hinchcliffe. As Carpenter turned laps, his times naturally slowed. He said he knew he would need a consistent fourth lap to edge Hinchcliffe’s time and capture the pole. He credited a change in his gear strategy during his fourth lap for helping his car maintain speed and not scrub off as much time. But at the end of the day, the numbers he had going through his head meant nothing. The only number

that mattered was 231.067 mph, his final average speed — the pole-winning average speed. “It’s hard to do math at 230,” Carpenter joked. Carpenter’s speed bumped Hinchcliffe’s 230.839 mph average to second, and Will Power rounded out the front row with 230.697 mph. Hinchcliffe’s secondplace run came only a week after he suffered a concussion in the Grand Prix of Indianapolis. The Andretti Autosport driver blamed small mistakes during his final lap for costing him the speed he

needed to beat Carpenter for the pole. As he went through Turn 3 on his final lap, Hinchcliffe said the rear end slipped out. The time it took for him to correct the resulting oversteer made the difference on the stopwatch. “At that downforce level, you don’t really have time for correction, and I had to crack the throttle,” Hinchcliffe said. “I knew that was it. I was screaming into my helmet through Turn 4 down the front straight. I just knew.” Helio Castroneves will start in fourth, Simon Pa-
genaud in fifth and Marco Andretti in sixth. Carlos Munoz, Josef Newgarden and J.R. Hildebrand rounded out the first three rows. But it was Carpenter who owned the weekend. As he navigated through the final corners, he knew the pole would be his, and celebration kicked in. “Going into three was when I started just making sure I nailed those last two corners,” Carpenter said. “And then coming down the front stretch, you really just kind of enjoy it, knowing you’re going to be on the pole.”

SPEEDWAY, Ind. — It’s no secret that in racing, money goes a long way. It’s a good portion of the reason why powerhouse teams owned by Roger Penske, Chip Ganassi and Michael Andretti win as often as they do in IndyCar. Money buys developmental resources, better facilities, better equipped crews, and it simply makes cars go faster. Breaking it down further, more money equals more wins. But in IndyCar, the gap between the richer, large multicar teams and the smaller teams with less money is closing. And the quality of racing is benefiting. IndyCar has seen four different teams win in the first four races this year alone. One third of the “Fast Nine” in Indianapolis 500 qualifying was made up of teams that predominantly operate as singlecar operations. This type of parody is fantastic for the state of IndyCar when a series that has fallen victim to being dominated by Penske and Ganassi teams in recent past is now full of potential winners. It means you don’t need to break the bank to win an IndyCar race. It rewards the best drivers and hardest-working teams with wins. It’s gotten to a point where one slip can cost a podium finish. One bad race can make the difference between a championship and falling out of contention. I thought Josef Newgarden infrastructure to support your latest passion. Prepare for a party. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is an 8 — A solution to a problem is becoming obvious. Ask a person who owes you a favor to help. Your powers of concentration seem extra keen today and tomorrow. You retain information exceptionally well. Study and explore. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is an 8 — These next days may be profitable. You could be tempted to a spending spree. Beauty need not be the most expensive choice. Use imagination to find simple substitutes. Budget, and pour on the steam at work.

described the current state of IndyCar best. “It’s getting pretty silly now, at certain points,” Newgarden said Saturday. “If you literally miss something by, I mean, a 10th of a second, you can be out of the whole mix.” It’s true. It’s silly to think that the single-car program run by Ed Carpenter could compete with a four-car powerhouse like Chip Ganassi Racing. But Carpenter beat Ganassi. Twice. Newgarden in his singlecar operation joined Carpenter as well as the likes of Andretti Auto Sport and Team Penske, beating all four of the Ganassi entries. This type of thing is uncommon. The richer teams are always going to rise to the top. The teams spent many years building their programs, and those are the teams the fans look up to. But parody in IndyCar is never a bad thing. It’s the unpredictable nature that keeps people coming back to IndyCar. And as the Indianapolis 500 draws increasingly near, it becomes harder and harder to determine a favorite to win. My early consensus says one of the Penske boys will kiss the bricks on Sunday. Indianapolis Motor Speedway practically owes the Captain a win after some of the luck his teams have had the past few years, and I feel like Will Power is due for his big win. Because Josef Newgarden will tell you, IndyCar is downright “silly.” And based on the racing in IndyCar as of late, “silly” is absolutely fantastic.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 this week when the Big Ten tournament begins Wednesday. IU earned the No. 1 seed in the tournament, which will be played in Omaha, Neb., during a five-day stretch. In round one, the Hoosiers will play No. 8 seed Iowa (29-21, 10-14) at 6 p.m. Wednesday. When IU and Iowa played earlier this season, IU swept Iowa in three games with a combined score of 25-9. If the Hoosiers win, they’ll go on to play the winner of the Minnesota–Michigan game. The potential round two game will start at 10 p.m. Thursday. Both games will be aired on the Big Ten Network. Smith will have to decide who will start which game for his pitching staff. If the Hoosiers win all their games in the Big Ten tournament, they will end
up playing four games in five days. However, the tournament has a double elimination format, which means IU could potentially play more than four games if they lose in round one, two, three or four. The Hoosier pitching staff has been the best staff in the Big Ten despite losing two of its original three starters. No. 2 starter Kyle Hart is out for the season after undergoing Tommy John surgery, and No. 3 starter Will Coursen-Carr has struggled this season with 25 walks given up in just 36.2 innings pitched. He was pulled from the rotation earlier this season. Christian Morris and Brian Korte have stepped up and boast a 1.99 and a 2.11 ERA, respectively. Their performances, coupled with senior ace Joey DeNato’s 11-1 record with a 1.83 ERA, has made IU the best pitching team in the conference.

IU senior Brian Korte pitches against Minnesota Saturday at Bart Kaufman Field. The Hoosiers beat the Gophers, 8-0, winning the series and remaining undefeated in its final eight Big Ten series.
Their team ERA of 2.22 is the lowest in the Big Ten by almost a run. But Smith will have to decide who gets the nod as the fourth and possibly fifth starter for not only the Big Ten tournament, but regionals, super regionals and possibly the College World Series. Smith said he doesn’t want to use his pitchers
on short rest in the Big Ten tournament, because they’re not in a position where they need to win every game to get into the NCAA tournament — the Hoosiers already have an at-large berth locked. “I’ve already started thinking about that,� Smith said. “We gotta make sure our pitchers are fresh when it comes time for regional play.�

“The main concern, as the deaf and speaking-impaired population has transitioned to wireless devices, is their availability to emergency services has been nonexistent,� Ritter said. “It was our focus that the sooner we could begin offering text-to-911 services,we would be providing equal access to the deaf and speaking-impaired.� Indiana was estimated to have more than 240,000 residents with a hearing disability in 2012, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. That number has steadily increased since 2009. “This project enables direct access to emergency service for an underserved segment of our population,� Ritter said. In October, INdigital telecom of Fort Wayne activated the 911 connection capable of supporting this pioneer service. INdigital telecom designed, built and operates the IN911 network, the textto-911 service, for the State 911 Board, which provides the service to 911 agencies throughout the state. The Monroe County Dispatch Center in Bloomington recently installed the text-to-911 software on its computers, and it is currently in the process of training staff to use it. The text-to-911 service is currently unavailable for Indiana residents living in Monroe County. “We need to familiarize

The Indiana DOE claimed federal grant money in order to fund the efforts. The program divides the state into six regions. Region 5 includes Columbus and Bloomington, as well as 24 other counties in southeast Indiana. Migrant families who qualify for the program receive special services like tutoring, health care checkups and individual meetings with program coordinators. Families who have traveled from warmer climates are often supplied with warm clothing. “We provide everything necessary for the kids to excel,� said Judith Grant, an identification and recruitment field specialist for region 5. Grant said she hasn’t found any kids in Bloomington that qualify for the program, but the Columbus center has about 15 students who are bused to Columbus from as far north as Shelbyville, Ind., and as far

Schemmer said he anticipates Monroe County residents being able to utilize the service within the next month. Until then, if someone dials 911 by text message, he or she will receive a kickback message informing them that the feature isn’t available in their area. “Ideally, we want to talk to somebody when there is an emergency going on,� he said. “There is a lot of information we need to obtain, and it’s quicker and a little bit more efficient by voice.� The Monroe County Dispatch Center answers 911 calls for everyone in the county except the IU campus, which has its own dispatch center. IU students will not have access to the text-to-911 service until the Monroe County Dispatch text-to-911 service is operational. All wireless 911 calls and text messages go directly to Monroe County Central Dispatch. If a call or text message originates from campus, central dispatch will forward the information directly to the IU Police Department, Lt. Craig Munroe said. IUPD currently doesn’t have the software capabilities to operate the textto-911 service, Munroe said. “We figure we’ll be operational by the 2014 fall semester,� he said. “That’s what we’re shooting for.�
south as Seymour, Ind. Even though it covers a larger area, region 5 has fewer people than other regions, she said. The Columbus center was added to an English as a Second Language education program in the Bartholomew Consolidated School Corporation. Debbie Thomas, director of English language learners for BCSC, is regional director of the program. Thomas said each student in the program will receive an iPad that will be theirs to keep, even if they move away from the area. The iPads will be loaded with books selected for each student’s reading level. Thomas said the iPads will be useful since migrants travel so often. “We can track them as they go from one location to another,� she said. School districts in each county send out work surveys to determine whether or not migrant families qualify for the services. Thomas said they had no children in the program at the beginning of the year, but now 15 kids are involved. She said she expects to find more in August when school districts send out work surveys.
