Alliance updates plans for semester

MEN’S SOCCER

The road to

By Sarah Verschoor mmetzman@umail.iu.edu | @melanie_metzman

While students danced to Latin beats at a weekly paso a paso dance workshop upstairs at the La Casa Latino Cultural Center, Willy Palomo, leader of the UndocuHoosier Alliance, was preparing for another meeting downstairs. The group met Monday to update the alliance’s missions for the coming months and semester, Palomo said. This meeting, along with the alliance’s recent work, comes in the wake of Donald Trump’s election and his promises during his campaign to remove President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood program. DACA allows the children of undocumented immigrants work permits. The removal of DACA prevents DACAmented students from working and makes the threat of deportation really eminent, Palomo said. “Undocumented students are not so much in the shadows but in the spotlight for the government,” Palomo said. UndocuHoosier Alliance member Gionni Ponce said, without these jobs, students and other DACAmented people will no longer have money to pay rent, buy food and potentially pay for immigration lawyers. Palomo said past estimates have said there are anywhere from 20 to 35 DACAmented students at IU and more at Ivy Tech schools and elsewhere in the state. However, he said it is hard to come up with a precise number. Palomo and the UndocuHoosier Alliance have begun working on SEE HOOSIERS, PAGE 6

“A

modern dynasty in men’s soccer” was how IU was described when the Hoosiers heard their name called Monday afternoon while gathered at Yogi’s Grill and Bar.

The Hoosiers were given the No. 7 overall seed and will face either the Akron Zips or the Villanova Wildcats in the second

Hoosiers ranked No. 6 in AP Top 25 From IDS reports

IU men’s basketball moved up five spots in the AP Top 25 Poll on Monday to No. 6 in the nation. After defeating then-No. 3 Kansas, 103-99, in overtime last week in Honolulu, IU received one first place vote in the poll while Kansas moved back to No. 7. The Hoosiers are now the topranked team in the Big Ten. Wisconsin stayed put at No. 9 in the polls, and Michigan State moved back one spot to No. 13 after losing to No. 10 Arizona in Hawaii. Purdue also stayed at No. 15 after starting the season 1-0 and Maryland was the lone Big Ten school to drop out of the polls after being ranked No. 25 last week and playing a close game against American University. IU will face off against a couple of nonconference opponents this week when they open up the home schedule at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall against University of Massachusetts Lowell on Wednesday and Liberty University on Saturday.

As one of the top 16 overall seeds, the Hoosiers avoid playing in the first round and are afforded the opportunity to play a home game in the second round. “You love to be seeded,” IU Coach Todd Yeagley said. “It gets you the guarantee of a home game, and you get a little more rest coming off of the tournament.

Pence, Holcomb talk in Indy By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@umail.iu.edu | @melanie_metzman

INDIANAPOLIS — Vice-president elect Mike Pence sat in the governor’s office Monday morning surrounded by his cabinet, including governor-elect Eric Holcomb. “It’s good to be home,” Pence said. Pence scheduled the cabinet meeting to discuss future plans for Indiana and to work on the transition from the Pence administration to the Holcomb administration. Pence said first and foremost he wanted to welcome Holcomb to the office formally. He pledged to Hoosiers that he would roll up his sleeves and finish his term as governor with full effort. Pence said he wanted to assure Hoosiers that teams were collaborating to make the transition as seamless as possible. “I’m confident Holcomb is going to take Indiana to the next level,” Pence said. On his move to the White House, Pence said he will renew the American dream by revitalizing the economy and rebuilding the military. Holcomb said he was excited Pence’s proven approach will be taken to the nation’s capital and the White House. “We have an enormous opportunity before us for this country to make America great again,” Pence said. Pence said President-elect Donald Trump is grateful for the support of Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, R-Wisconsin, and he will not be serving as a peacemaker between Ryan and Trump. “He is focused on the future of the American people and making American great again,” Pence said. The press was told to leave after Pence and Holcomb made their opening statements because the remainder of the meeting was closed. Holcomb’s cabinet appointments are forthcoming. On choosing cabinet members, Pence said the administration is looking for competent men and women who match Trump’s vision to make America great again. On the national level, Trump SEE PENCE, PAGE 6

IU alumna to lead workshop at Community Arts Awards By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

Last year the Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center introduced the Community Arts Awards, an opportunity to recognize members of the community who contribute to the arts in Bloomington. This year’s Community Arts Awards will take place at 5:30 p.m. Friday in the Waldron Arts Center and will include workshops in various non-traditional artistic skills, one of which will be a theatrical makeup workshop led by IU alumna Lily Walls. Walls said she began practicing theatrical makeup — specifically wound, gore and specialty makeup — when she was studying theater at IU. Walls graduated in 2015 and has since been working on shows at the Ivy Tech Waldron. “It’ll be really fun for people,” Walls said. “It’ll be like adult face SEE MAKEUP, PAGE 6
