Annual drive fights hunger

‘IN HIS DNA’ IU junior midfielder raised to love soccer, hate losing

By Laurel Demkovich lfdemkov@indiana.edu

The Indiana Memorial Union began its annual fundraiser, Helping Hands Monday to fight hunger. The fundraiser and food collection will run through Friday, Nov. 6. By donating non-perishable food at the Market in the IMU or donating cash through any food retail shop in the IMU, students, faculty, staff and community members can participate. “We have a lot of focus on stopping hunger,” said Chris Gray, food and beverage director for IMU restaurants and catering. “We take, I guess, to heart that it’s our responsibility — dealing so much with food — to help the organizations in our areas that we do business in when they’re trying to fight hunger.” The IMU works with the Hoosier Hills Food Bank, which receives the money raised by the fundraiser. Hoosier Hills will use all of the money raised to purchase food for different food pantries in the Bloomington community.

Dance company to teach, perform Bridget Murray bridmurr@indiana.edu | @bridget_murray

The Twyla Tharp Dance Company will appear at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday in the IU Auditorium on their 50th Anniversary Tour. Managing Director of IU Auditorium Maria Talbert said the show will feature two new world-premiere works. “Presenting (Tharp’s) work and showcasing her brilliant company of dancers is an honor we are thrilled to share with the IU and Bloomington communities,” Talbert said in an email. Tharp founded her dance company, Twyla Tharp Dance, in 1965, according to her website. She has since choreographed for her own company as well as prominent dance companies all over the world such as American Ballet Theatre and the Paris Opera Ballet. She has received 19 honorary doctorate degrees, a Tony Award and two Emmy Awards among other honors, according to her website. In addition to seeing the premiere of two choreographed works, Talbert said, IU students have the opportunity to interact with the dancers more directly. Two master classes will be taught with Tharp’s company members Tuesday. The first is for contemporary dance majors at 10 a.m. in the Contemporary Dance Studio. The second is for ballet majors at 2:30 p.m. in the Jacobs School of Music’s large ballet studio. With these classes, Talbert said the company’s visit to IU benefits students two-fold. “It is one of our greatest points of pride at the Auditorium that we have the opportunity to connect our visiting artists to IU students through workshops and masterclasses,” Talbert said in an email. “We know that these experiences will not only give the participating students an enhanced perspective on Wednesday’s performance, and will also greatly enrich their dance education to assist them as they move forward into their own careers.” Tickets for the Twyla Tharp Dance Company performance at the IU Auditorium are $22 to $40 for the general public. Student tickets are $12 to $35.

A mob was forming. What was in the center was unseen, but a group of 30 IU soccer players were jumping up and down in celebration in front of the IU bench at Bill Armstrong Stadium. After about 20 seconds, the mob broke. From it emerged a 5-foot-7, 150-pound midfielder. Tanner Thompson had just scored a goal to put the Hoosiers up 2-1 against Louisville in the 48th minute. IU would win by that score. The Hoosiers were celebrating the goal, not just for its importance for their season, but also for their leader in the midfield. The goal was the junior’s first from the run of play and second overall. Both he and his coaches expected more at the beginning of the season. Thompson said he hopes the floodgates are open now, but that was not the main reason for his celebration. He was also celebrating a potential game-winning goal in a crucial non-conference match. Most of all, he was celebrating not losing, because there is nothing Tanner Thompson hates more than losing. * * * Tanner never liked to be told what to do, so he played soccer, both because he wanted to and because the game fit his personality. “I like how it’s not robotic,” Tanner said. “There’s no plays. It’s in the game, you make decisions on your own, and you’re not following a script or anything like that. It’s just spur of the moment decisions.” As a center midfielder, Tanner was in control of the pace of the game and, in many ways, whether his team won or lost. Growing up in Loomis, California, competition was fierce in the Thompson household. The three brothers would

compete in almost anything, especially soccer. There were juggling competitions in the front yard and soccertennis games in an extra room. Those soccer-tennis games got so heated at times Gregg Thompson, Tanner’s father, had to make them stop playing so they wouldn’t fight. He had to lock the door to the extra room. “For the most part, they were verbal confrontations, and depending how verbal they got sometimes they led to physical fights,” Tanner said. “It was all good. It got our competitive spirit up, and that’s part of the reason why we’re so competitive now. We just grew up with that SEE THOMPSON, PAGE 6 IDS FILE PHOTO

Death of daughter causes cop to change duties By Taylor Telford ttelford@umail.iu.edu | @ttelford1883

INDIANAPOLIS — For over 25 years, the officer patrolled for drunken drivers, stopping swerving cars, giving sobriety tests to the whiskey-breathed and glassy-eyed. Daniel Shragal, 48, knew the stakes. After seeing thousands of crashes, he knew the shattered glass and mangled frames were nothing compared to the human wreckage — the lives lost and the loved ones left behind. Every drunken driver he pulled over meant a possible tragedy averted. Despite all the strangers he saved, there was nothing he could do to stop the driver who killed his daughter. Now he lies awake at night. “I wish that my phone would ring, and that it’d be her on the other end,” Shragal said. * * * TAYLOR TELFORD | IDS

Shragal didn’t become a cop to catch drunken drivers. Raised in a small farming town in Illinois, he said he tired of the quiet. At 23, he joined the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department and found himself assigned to the city’s old north side. Every night felt like living in a television show. He got paid to chase people in cars and on foot, to be a hero and catch the bad guys. He joked with his fellow officers that this was the only job where you could legally drive around with a backseat full of hookers and a trunk full of drugs. “They had to force me to take time off,” Shragal said. “Being at

work was just so much more fun than being home.” After a few years, he transitioned into working DUIs. Initially, he was fascinated by the technical elements of the job. He liked the field sobriety tests — the huff of the breathalyzer and the dead giveaway of an eye that can’t stop twitching or track an index finger. Out in the field, his compassion set him apart. He lost count of the number of people he arrested who turned around to shake his hand, while still wearing handcuffs. He said he tried never to treat the people he pulled over like criminals

unless they gave him a reason to. “I try to talk to every person I pull over the way I’d want another officer to talk to my sister if she were the one in the driver’s seat,” Shragal said. If they accused him of treating them like criminals, his first question was always the same. “Did you set out tonight to have too much to drink?” The answer was always no. Some drivers would share their stories with him, their faces lit by his flashlight as they spoke of the forces that pushed them over the edge: break-ups and break-downs, deaths

in the family, lost jobs. “I try to stop them before they murder someone, because it is murder,” Shragal said. “Always has been. Even before Kirstin.” In August, Kirstin, 22, and her 14-month-old son Orion were headed to a family dinner in Dayton, Ohio, when a drunken driver ran a stop sign and careened into her driver’s side door. Orion survived. Kirstin did not. Shragal took every measure he could to protect his home and his SEE , PAGE 4

Folbre to present 2 Patten Lectures From IDS reports

Economist Nancy Folbre will discuss the intersections of political economy and feminist theory. Folbre will present two Patten Lectures in November at IU, according to an IU press release. Her first lecture, “Monsters of the Economic: Inequality, Fear and Loathing in America,” is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 10, and her second lecture, “The Political Economy of Patriarchal Systems,” is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 12. Both lectures are scheduled from 7:30 to 9 p.m. in Presidents Hall in Franklin Hall, according to the release. Both lectures are free and open to the public. In “Monsters of the Economic: Inequality, Fear and Loathing in America,” Folbre will discuss how economic insecurity and downward mobility increase susceptibility to political manipulation, spawn fear and loathing and enforce barriers to solving economic problems,

according to the release. In “The Political Economy of Patriarchal Systems,” Nancy Folbre will Folbre discuss how analytical tools, such as game theory, bargaining models and exploitation concepts, can enhance feminist theory, according to the release. A professor emerita of economics at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst and director of the Political Economy Research Institute’s Program on Gender and Care Work, Folbre studies the intersection of political economy and feminist theory, according to the release. Her work has pressed economists, sociologists and other social scientists to fundamental re-evaluations of the ways they study the intersection of family, labor and the economy. Folbre has published multiple books on topics

ranging from gender in historical economics to labor spheres within families, according to the release. She has also published numerous pieces in journals and wrote a weekly blog for The New York Times from 2009 to 2014. For her work, Folbre has earned multiple awards and grants, including a MacArthur Foundation award, also known as the “genius grant;” a Russell Sage Foundation fellowship; the Leontief Prize of the Global Development and Environment Institute at Tufts University; and a National Science Foundation grant. The William T. Patten Foundation funds week-long visits of scholars or practitioners in the sciences, humanities and arts to IU, according to the release. These scholars and practitioners, chosen by a campus-wide faculty committee, give public lectures, participate in faculty colloquia and meet with students. Since 1937, the foundation has brought more than

IU funds new home for chimney swifts From IDS reports

IU is funding a new home for nearly 250 chimney swifts. Construction recently began on a 12-foot-tall bird house, according to an IU press release. Though chimney swifts typically nest in hollow trees and chimneys, the species’ habitat has been threatened as hollow trees have become scarcer and chimneys have been covered. The bird house, found at WonderLab’s Lester P. Bushnell WonderGarden, is one of five to be constructed across Bloomington next year, according to the release. Other locations include Harmony School and Sherwood Oaks Park. The bird house is part of a project titled “Swifts in the City.” The project is led by Jessica Hite, a doctoral student in the College of Arts and Sciences’ Department of Biology and a board member at Bloomington’s Sassafras Audubon Society. “By combining art, science and technology, this project will take an innovative approach to making public landscapes work for both people and conservation,” Hite said in the release. “We’re fusing public art and science to not only provide an essential breeding habitat for chimney swifts but also engage multiple groups in environmental outreach and education and to contribute to long-term local and national monitoring programs of these birds.” Chimney swifts are considered “near threatened” in the United States by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and “federally

threatened” in Canada by the Committee on the Status of Endangered, according to the release. Though people are building swift towers across the U.S., many towers are needed, according to the release. Though hundreds of birds can share each swift tower to rest during the night, only one pair of birds can share each swift tower to breed during the day. “It’s quite deceiving when you see these large colonies of swifts because you assume that their populations are healthy,” Hite said in the release. “It’s a common misperception that has affected other species since gone extinct, such as the passenger pigeon. The bird house will include two “swift-cams,” closedcircuit cameras connected to

a monitor at a kiosk within a museum. “This tower will provide a wonderful opportunity for community outreach and education,” said Ellen Ketterson, the faculty sponsor of the project, in the release. “As a researcher and bird-lover, I was happy to lend my support to Jessica’s work to protect these charismatic birds.” Bloomington-based craftsman Rusty Peterson is constructing the bird house at WonderLab’s Lester P. Bushnell WonderGarden, while Bloomington-based artist Joe LaMantia will decorate the bird house in collaboration with artists from Stone Belt, which supports individuals with developmental disabilities. Sassafras Audubon Society

volunteers will assist with the long-term maintenance of the bird house. “This project is really all about involving the community,” Hite said in the release. “We want everyone involved to experience the sense of belonging, pride and accomplishment that accompanies collaborative artwork. Stone Belt’s mission to empower their members through art and hands-on community projects is the cornerstone of our project.” Final construction of the IU-funded tower will be completed in the coming days, according to the release. Decoration of the IU-funded tower will be completed in the early spring. Ashleigh Sherman

Attorney at law Marc Abplanalp said when it comes down to a landlord’s word versus a tenant’s, most of the time, the landlord has the edge. For this reason and many others, Student Legal Services is a unit on campus that exists to offer legal advice and counsel to most students free of charge, including when it comes to signing leases and other housing issues. “Just signing the contract and putting faith in the landlord to take care of you is not a good idea,” Stacee Williams, staff attorney and interim director at Student Legal Services, said. “They’re in business to make money, so now is the time for the students to start taking responsibility for watching out for themselves.” Funded by the student activity fee, SLS employs lawyers and law student interns to advise students on any legal matters. During the mid and late fall, much of the work the office does centers around helping students sign leases on houses and apartments for the next school year. “With lease analysis, students can bring their leases in before they sign and we’ll go over those lease contracts with them, as well as give advice and information on landlord and tenant law in Bloomington and in Indiana as well,” Williams said. One resource Williams said she often points out for students is the housing and neighborhood development department for the City of Bloomington. Files are kept on all rental properties, and students can go into City Hall to request past records on any property they might lease. The records are for individual units, not entire complexes, so students can see records for their specific house or apartment unit before signing a lease. “Leases are just a big contract, and for most of our student clients, this is the first major contract they will have entered into,” Williams said. “It’s good to get legal advice, to have a lawyer review that contract with you, regardless of what kind of contract it is, before you commit yourself to it.” When a student comes in for a lease analysis meeting, Williams said it is good for a student to read their contract beforehand and come in with questions. Abplanalp said it is helpful for students to submit relevant documents online for a meeting with SLS before coming to the office. This allows a lawyer to look over the agreement or other aspects of the case, such as emails and photographs, to see if there is anything unusual.

Some cases Abplanalp sees deal with leases that require a guarantor, which is someone who signs a contract saying they will pay rent/expenses if the student fails to do so. Guarantors are usually parents of students in most situations. Sometimes a student signs a lease that requires a guarantor, but a student’s parents might refuse to be that person. If this happens, under some contracts, the landlord can refuse to let tenants move in but still charge rent. Abplanalp said SLS has won cases on this issue in the past, although one is currently in the court system without a decision yet. Once a tenant signs a lease, there are some things Williams said she frequently advises students to do or things of which she attempts to make them aware. For starters, she and Abplanalp both said tenants should attend with their landlord the initial joint inspection of the unit required by code within ten days of move-in to document the apartment or house’s current condition. “That move-in is really important to establish a baseline, a record of the condition of the place in the beginning of the tenancy,” Williams said. “If a landlord isn’t willing to participate in that process, it comes back to professionalism and doing business according to the law, and I would just be wary of that.” Williams said if a landlord does not attend the initial inspection, tenants should make a record themselves of the property’s condition. She said it is important for students to take photographs and video of the space at the time of movein to create a concrete record of the conditions, so a landlord does not claim the tenant damaged the space. By law, landlords cannot use a tenant’s security deposit for normal wear and tear on a unit, but rather only on what exceeds damage from average use of the property, Williams said. Although SLS provides help and representation, Williams said much of what the office does is directing students to resources and educating them on their rights. “Mostly what we want tenants to get is that they need to watch out for themselves, and there are ways to do that,” Williams said. “If they have problems with landlords, they need to communicate those problems with the landlord, and see if they can get it fixed directly. If not, if they’ve communicated the complaints in writing, they have a record. Then they can come to see us and hopefully we can help resolve the situation.”

IU debate team makes advances By Patrick Wisdom pwisdom@indiana.edu | @wiskhalifa17

When Brian DeLong, the director of the IU debate program, restored the program in 2010, it found itself facing some initial struggles. Now, five years later, the program is making improvements, with two of its top teams finishing within the top 45 teams at its last competition at the University of Kentucky. In 1994, the official debate program at IU ceased to exist. But IU officials took notice after a motivated group of undergraduate students began a movement to bring back the debate program in 2009, DeLong said. In 2010, after a 17-year lull, an official debate program at IU was reestablished, with DeLong appointed as its director. Today, DeLong continues to serve as the director of the program, as well as the head coach of IU’s debate team. He said he believes the program has made tremendous strides since it was reestablished five years ago, but there is still room for improvement.

“Right now, IU is toward the middle of the pack amongst Big Ten debate programs,” DeLong said. “Four or five years ago, we were dead last.” Thus far, the varsity core of IU’s debate team, eight debaters who comprise four twoperson teams, has fared well in its first two competitions: one in Atlanta and one in Kentucky. Their next competition will take place this upcoming weekend, Oct. 30 to Nov. 1, at Harvard University. The type of debate in which the teams participate is called policy debate, which focuses on governmental action. This year’s resolution is “The United States should significantly reduce its military presence in one or more of the following: the Arab states of the Persian Gulf, the Greater Horn of Africa or Northeast Asia.” DeLong said he likes the style of policy debate because of its emphasis on research. “Essentially, policy debaters can do as much research as somebody in a master’s degree,” DeLong said “They

can attempt to navigate very dense information that typically is relegated to graduatelevel education. They also learn how to deal with extremely complex arguments and topics.” Although being on the debate team is a serious time commitment, anywhere between 20 to 40 hours per week, DeLong said it yields substantial benefits. Junior Bee Smale said being on the team has greatly improved his research, argumentation and public speaking skills, among others. Freshman Harry Aaronson said his involvement with the team has helped him in the classroom. “Being on the debate team has hugely opened and facilitated my reading comprehension abilities in terms of processing information quickly and drawing out the main points of articles,” Aaronson said. “It has also improved my ability to construct arguments for papers and has improved my research skills.” But the benefits don’t stop at school, Aaronson said.

“(The debate team) has provided me with a huge network of people: both friends, from here and across the country, and mentors,” Aaronson said. “It’s a great way to establish long-term relationships with people throughout the whole country.” As the team continues to improve, it has its eyes set on one main goal: qualifying for the National Debate Tournament, DeLong said. The National Debate Tournament is the largest, most prestigious intercollegiate debate tournament, DeLong said. It features 78 of the nation’s top teams and has a bracket-style format. “The National Debate Tournament is essentially the debate equivalent of March Madness,” Aaronson said. A team from IU has only qualified for the tournament once, in 1992. This year, DeLong said, he is hoping that number will change. “I feel very confident,” DeLong said. “The raw intelligence of the students on our team this year is through the roof.”

When he came up with the idea for his new movie “Car 86” three years ago while on a ride-along with police officers in his hometown of Indianapolis, Gregory Alan Ballard said he knew right away he wanted to shoot the film in the city where he grew up. Now, after several years of planning, writing and securing funding for his film, Ballard will begin production Thursday on “Car 86” in downtown Indianapolis. The movie, which Ballard defines as a sci-fi thriller, features three post-collegiate kids on a ride-along through Indianapolis that goes awry. Ballard said the movie drew its inspiration from a ride-along he took with the Indianapolis Metro Police in 2012. “While we were out that night, I saw so many different interesting characters,” Ballard said. “I knew immediately I had to get them on screen. I had to write about them.” A 2008 graduate of IU, Ballard is credited as the writer and producer of “Car 86,” his first feature film. Shortly after the ridealong in 2012, Ballard moved to Los Angeles where he began to work as a production assistant on television and movie sets before moving to work for Warner Brothers as an editor for feature movie scripts. Ballard credited his time working for Warner Brothers with greatly increasing his own writing ability. “In my opinion, there are two good ways to get better at writing: write, or read a lot of really good writing.”

Ballard said. Once Ballard had a completed and polished a copy of his script, his production partner shared the script with Jeffrey Reddick, who is known for creating the “Final Destination” movies. Reddick liked the script enough that he wanted to help make the movie, Ballard said. With Reddick’s name attached as an executive producer, they were able to find sufficient funding and a strong cast. The film stars Reese Mishler, Sarah Davenport and Paul Woolfolk, all of whom Ballard called talented up-and-comers in the movie industry. With plans for the movie firmly in place, Ballard turned to his hometown of Indianapolis as the location for filming. Ballard, whose father happens to be Indianapolis mayor Gregory Ballard, went on to say he was pleased with how supportive city officials have been in planning his filming for the movie. On Thursday, Ballard will begin what he called a “very quick, rigorous two weeks of filming” in Indianapolis, followed by up to six weeks of post-production in Los Angeles. Once they have a polished cut, Ballard said he and his team plan to submit the film to large festivals such as Cannes and Sundance. For now, Ballard said he is focused on fulfilling his dream of filming in the city he said he knows so well. “To have my first film be shot in my hometown, it’s exciting,” Ballard said. “I’ve always thought that if you can shoot on a low budget, Indianapolis would be an awesome place to shoot.”

Alarm systems and motion-sensor lights were the first line of defense at home, along with a German Shepherd named Archie, the family’s fiercest protector. The older his children grew, the more they came to understand the perils of their father’s job. They knew him coming home the next morning was not necessarily a guarantee. Shragal never worried about his kids putting themselves in dangerous situations. Mostly, he worried about them being casualties of someone else’s poor decisions. “Of course that’s exactly what happened,” he said. * * * In 2011, Shragal switched from DUI to the financial crimes unit in the organized crime branch. He was too old for the rush now. He’d had his fill of car chases, fatal wrecks and coming home at 5 a.m. Sometimes on the weekends, he’d volunteer for a shift manning DUI checkpoints. He felt called to save people from themselves. Shragal was working checkpoints on Aug. 22. He’d been on break, stopped at a roll-call center to use the bathroom.

As Kirstin looked after her younger siblings, Shragal came to realize what a natural caregiver she was. She never wanted to be anything specific when she grew up, except a mother. She was 20 when she called late one night. He thought something was wrong. At first his daughter made nervous small talk, but he could hear in her voice something was coming. She told him she was pregnant. For a few moments, he was silent. Kirstin thought her father was angry. Instead, he

was beaming and stifling his tears. “You’re too young to be a mom,” he told her. “But I know you’ll be a great one.” * * * An hour before she was killed, Kirstin made a video to share with her friends and family on Periscope. In it, she grins and jokes about her unruly dark hair. “I have no idea what is going on with my hair,” she says, midsentence. She reaches back to fiddle with her bun, raising her eyebrows comically. “It is so gross. Anyway, that has nothing to do with what I was talking about.” She speaks of the significance of fleeting moments of interaction, how even strangers can affect each other’s

lives for the better. “Try to impact people’s lives, because you never know when and if someone might need it,” she said. “They might not need it then, but if it’s powerful enough, they’re going to remember it.” The video ends with Kirstin’s toothy smile and goodbye, as she signs off for an evening with her family. “We’re about to go to dinner,” she says. “My father-inlaw is coming into town, and we’re going to go eat some food.” After she turned the camera off, Kirstin strapped Orion into his car seat for the last time.

Kirstin drove on with Orion. There was nothing wrong with the car, Andrew discovered after a few minutes. He and his father resumed their trip, only to slow and then stop at signs of a wreck a little down the road. Andrew saw a throng of people, yelling and running through the street. He could see the cars ahead: Kirstin’s Hyundai Elantra, crunched around a tree, and the Ford F-150 that hit her. Andrew got out and ran toward his wife and son, but it was too late. Before her car had even stopped skidding, Kirstin was gone. Moments after the wreck, the driver of the F-150 tried to flee. Bystanders held him down until the police arrived. Later at the hospital, he consented to having his blood drawn. His blood alcohol content was over the legal limit. Others who witnessed the accident got Orion out of his car seat, tearing off their T-shirts to try to stanch the bleeding from his head. In the wreck, Orion’s arm was broken in two places. His skull was fractured, the left side of his brain bruised. Afterwards, investigators came to Dayton Children’s Hospital, where doctors were helping Orion. They asked Shragal if he wanted to see the scene of the accident, but he declined. He’d already been on-site at thousands of drunken-driving crashes. He couldn’t bear to see the one that killed his daughter. * * * It’s been a little over two months. “I’m still having some rough nights,” Shragal said. He can’t sleep, and if he does, it’s fitful. He remembers watching her grow up — applauding at her ballet recitals, taking her to see “The Wizard of Oz” and

hearing her sing and tease her brother. Some nights, he is trapped in the moment he got the call, when he dropped to his knees on the pavement and wept. His heart thumps too fast when he thinks of her injuries, what she might have endured, even in a split-second. He thinks of her funeral, with Ring Pops tucked into the flower arrangements and a police escort to the cemetery. He knows she would have loved that. Shragal hasn’t worked a DUI checkpoint since the night she was killed, but he wants to go back. He’s scared he won’t be able to keep Kirstin out of it. That the drunks will gripe at him, saying his flashlight in their window or his cuffs on their wrists are ruining their night. “Really, you son of a bitch,” Shragal fears he might say. “I’m ruining your night? Someone just like you killed my daughter.” “I never want to be that person,” Shragal said. His supervisor suggested he always have another officer with him if he ever has to do an investigation. That way he’ll have someone to lean on to keep him balanced if he needs it. Meanwhile, his son Cooper wants to follow him into the force. Shragal is encouraging his son to be a firefighter instead. He doesn’t want his son to see the things he’s seen. He thinks the current attitude toward law enforcement is too hostile; if he was faced with starting a career as an officer now, he thinks he’d choose a different path. But this is the job he chose, and he knows he has to go back. He’s taking this week off work to give himself a chance to breathe, to prepare. There’s a checkpoint after he comes back. Maybe then. He knows he’ll see her face at every fatal crash site, but he doesn’t want anyone else to bury their child.

Aaron Van Ruler didn’t begin his career with any interest in computer coding. In fact, he went to college to study psychology. He said he hoped one day to be a sports psychologist working with professional golfers. But on Monday, Van Ruler spoke to a class of coding students at the Monroe County Public Library about his career in front-end web development for IU and how he had stumbled upon an interest in coding when he wanted to design his own blog in 2006.

“I watched a lot of videos on Lynda — I watched all I could,” Van Ruler said. “Eventually I got an interview and got a job in it.” Van Ruler had been invited to the class by Brandon Pfeiffer, who teaches JavaScript and jQuery coding. “For the remainder of the semester we’re going to have someone come in from the tech community,” Pfeiffer said. “The goal is kind of for you to see from other people’s perspectives what the path to learning code looks like, but also to connect you to mentors outside the code school program.”

AJ O’Reilly teaches web design. He said he’s been with the program since it started in June 2014. “Someone reached out to me when the program began, and I’ve been doing it ever since,” O’Reilly said. The classes are free, designed to foster a more technically-savvy workforce in Monroe County, according to the course’s website. The courses available include Java Script and jQuery courses, web design, PHP coding and front-end web development — one of the processes by which a user interacts with a website.

Preparing for the worst WE SAY: It may be irritating, but safety drills are important There have been 994 mass shootings in 1,004 days in America as of Oct. 2, and many businesses and schools — including IU — are starting to take action. Though “in recent years IU has conducted full-scale active shooter drills” on campus, students were not usually involved and the drills served mostly to prepare emergency personnel, according to the Indiana Daily Student. That could change, according to IU Emergency Management and Continuity Bloomington Director Debbi Fletcher. IUEMC is currently looking into the possibility of conducting active shooter drills on a building or classroom level and “is placing emphasis on three words: run, hide and fight.” Although the Editorial Board believes it is disturbing that the school is in a situation where these drills are necessary, we also

realize how important it is that these drills are conducted. Though the school shootings that have occurred this year are slightly under the number of school shootings in 2014 around this time of the year, there are higher death counts in 2015, according to ABC News. These drills could truly help save lives. What else are colleges and universities supposed to do if federal, state and local governments do nothing in terms of gun control? These drills are no more morbid than a fire or tornado drill, which people experience fairly frequently. What if a fire broke out in one of the buildings on campus and no one involved had ever learned proper protocol and procedure to evacuate? When it comes down to it, active shooter drills are a simple matter of safety. Performing these drills might help protect people

now, but it is important to remember that a societal change needs to occur in order for these mass shootings to stop, or at least occur with less frequency. Along with preparing students on how to act in this kind of situation, we need to reemphasize the value of human life and get to the root of why these tragedies are happening in the first place. The Editorial Board only hopes these responses to actively counter school shootings do not romanticize the attacks as some sort of dramatic, movie-like battle between the “good” and “bad” guys. In no way should anyone feel obligated to try to play the hero in a shooter situation. We also are not advocating for students to carry concealed weapons, as this could cause safety issues of its own. Not to mention IU is a no-carry campus, meaning

it is prohibited to carry any type of firearm on campus. The Editorial Board recognizes the school is in no way trying to normalize shootings and is only motivated to conduct these drills to keep people safe. If someone was to open fire on campus, it would not be beneficial for everyone to be scrambling around because they had never prepared for the situation. Yes, it is highly uncomfortable to think about the possibility of something so horrific happening on campus. Yes, many people would prefer to believe that it is impossible that it could happen at IU. But the truth of the matter is none of the schools these shootings have occurred at in the past had any idea that a tragedy so sinister could occur right at home. A few minutes of discomfort are miniscule if it could possibly save your life.

RILED UP

Schumer shows how celebs should handle tragedy Celebrities are often in the position to take a stand on social issues, despite often having no qualifications. It is an unfortunate side effect of choosing to live in the public eye, and it possibly sends a negative message about our society when we look to actors for policy ideas. So many celebrities aren’t up to the challenge, and almost no one can be perfect in public all the time. That is why it is so refreshing when a celebrity does get it right. Amy Schumer has come out in support of gun control following a shooting that took place July 23 at a showing of her movie “Trainwreck” in Lafayette, Louisiana. Three people were killed in the shooting, including the shooter. Since August, she and her cousin, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-NY., have teamed up to speak against gun violence. Amy Schumer has spoken on multiple occasions about how the shooting felt very personal to her, which

motivated her to work with her cousin toward a solution that would lessen the possibility of another tragedy. She and Sen. Schumer first had a press conference Aug. 3, where they urged lawmakers for better background checks and mental health screenings when purchasing guns. “The critics scoff and say, ‘Well, there’s no way to stop crazy people from doing crazy things,’ but they’re wrong,” she said, according to time.com. “There is a way to stop them. Preventing dangerous people from getting guns is very possible.” Both Schumers came out again Oct. 25 at New York City Hall to bring specific attention to legislation that would close loopholes that don’t require background checks at gun shows and online. Not only is the cause a worthy one — especially when we, as a country, have faced so many gun-related massacres this year alone — but even though her hand was forced on this is-

sue, other celebrities should take note of the elegance and determination with which Amy Schumer has handled it. Many actors and actresses abuse their space in the public eye. As in the recent case of Matt Damon, they can often forget to think before they speak — a detrimental thing when their words carry more weight than those of the average person. But it is precisely their unparalleled place in the public eye that makes us expect them to take stands on social issues, even when it isn’t their place. Unfortunately, the tragedy that occurred at the showing of “Trainwreck” put Amy Schumer in exactly that place. She was suddenly expected to take a stance on a hot-button issue that I’m sure she never thought she would have to formally address. She has risen to the task better than most. She responded promptly and, better yet, she was able to divert attention to her cousin,

Sen. Schumer, who is in the political sphere with a real ability to make changes. Others who find themselves in this situation might use the opportunity to express their opinions and leave it at that. Amy Schumer not only took a stance on this issue, but she also seems to be really attempting to enact change. Amy Schumer is not a perfect example of social justice, and the pressure we put on professional actors to represent the country’s moral compass is wrong. However, in a situation that so many have failed to navigate well, Schumer has managed to handle a delicate and tragic situation with poise, sincerity and, most importantly, real action. jordrile@indiana.edu @riledupIDS

Loyalty, warmth and genuineness are invaluable traits in a friend. Through the complexity of human interaction, these feelings of security can seem distant at times. The animals we welcome into our lives as pets not only provide us with these traits consistently but offer a healing presence. The health benefits of living with a pet have long been assumed, but more recent studies have shed light on just how powerful the unconditional love of a pet can be. The National Institutes of Health funded a recent study that followed adults that had suffered a heart attack. After a year, those that lived with a dog were significantly more likely to be alive than their pet-less peers. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention believes pet ownership can contribute to reduced blood pressure, cholesterol, triglycerides and feelings of loneliness. Depending upon the animal, pets can also offer us increased opportunities for cardiovascular exercise and social interaction. Athletic dogs can encourage us to get outside and walk, run, hike and play, while dogs of any size can connect us with new friendships formed at parks and a variety of other public areas. Caring for a pet during a time of depression or anxiety can also supply us with a sense of purpose, according to WebMD. As our pets depend upon us for their basic and emotional needs, we in turn can come to feel needed and wanted by our furry friends. During these darker periods in our lives, our pets reach us in our most intimate and isolated

spaces. One organization has realized the potential benefits of the human/animal relationship in a powerful way. Pets of the Homeless, a Nevada-based nonprofit, is acutely conscious of the sacrifices those experiencing homelessness make to care for their pets. Because of the complex variety of issues that often contribute to the end-result of either brief, intermittent or long-term homelessness, pets present the nonjudgmental bond and healing these individuals are in need of. This bond is an essential contributing factor to the individual’s quality of life. Therefore, by assisting those experiencing homelessness in caring for their beloved pets, Pets of the Homeless is providing indirect yet remarkable healing. Pets can be a truly incredible presence in our lives. They love us in good times and in bad, and at our lowest moments they are overjoyed to see us. Animals judge us not by our appearances, our substance use issues, our depression or our current poverty, but by the character within us our culture seems so apt to bury. One could argue that pets are blind in the most fortunate ways, unaffected by prejudice or politics. From this vein, our pets can teach us a thing or two about compassion and the human condition. sjdickma@indiana.edu @Samuel_Dickman

NATALIE KNOWS

Put down the phone and take some notes Texting in class has become so common, most professors seem to have given up telling students to put away their phones. And we’ve stopped trying to hide the fact that we are partially paying attention. But a new app might change all of this distracted, obsessive behavior. Pocket Points was designed in 2014 by two students at California State University at Chico to encourage students to put away their phones and pay attention to professors instead. Though I’ve been wary of other apps like the Companion app designed to help get students home safely that I wrote about two weeks ago, Pocket Points might have a positive effect in the classroom. The app works like this: students open the app in class and receive points when they do not use their phone during lecture. These points, once added up, can lead to discounts and food deals, like free chips and guacamole at nearby restaurants. Pocket Points is brilliant. It aims to eliminate distractions in the classroom by exploiting a college student’s love — or sheer desperation — for cheap food. Though this app seems to create positive results, like full attention from students, it’s a pitiful reflection of how much technology has invaded the classroom, and not always in a positive way. I watch fellow classmates on their laptops in lecture, scrolling through Facebook and Twitter, writing essays for other classes, messaging friends and checking emails — all at the same time. Any information they might hope to retain is minimal. Admittedly, I am sometimes one of these people. I read the New York Times,

Natalie Rowthorn is a senior in journalism.

Snapchat my friends, make to-do lists and frequently wonder what the professor just said was important for the exam. I panic when the Wi-Fi isn’t working and obsessively charge my phone so we will never have to be apart. Yes, I admit I have a problem. If an app has to bribe students to fully pay attention in class so they can get 30 percent off a burrito later, then so be it. But professors should become stricter with their technology policies in the classroom — if they’ve implemented one at all. Most of my professors allow laptops and cell phones in the classroom, both of which I always keep within reach. I can recall only one professor I had with a strict “No Screen Policy.” I didn’t mind since it was my favorite class, so I would’ve kept my phone in my bag regardless. But it made me realize how truly engaged I was versus other classes in which I’d sit with Facebook and the latest memes to fight for my attention. We can argue all day whether laptops are necessary in the classroom, but cell phones offer only a lovely distraction. Whether students at IU download Pocket Points solely to be rewarded with food discounts, at least they are paying more attention in the classroom. Maybe it will slowly condition us to put our phones away in class or when studying with no bribery necessary. nrowthor@indiana.edu @nrowthornIU

Tanner’s competitiveness and desire to be better got him to IU, Gregg said. If you lost in the Thompson household, your brother wouldn’t let you forget. You were made fun of until you were furious enough to do everything you could to get better — everything you could to avoid losing again. “That feeling when you lose just eats away at you,” Tanner said. “Winning is obviously nice, but the losing aspect is just the worst. It ruins your week.” * * * Ty, the oldest brother, was playing in a game. It was nothing serious — he was only six or seven. Tommy, the youngest, was busy playing on the playground — the monkey bars were his favorite. Tanner was sitting, watching, learning everything he could. He was in his father’s lap, watching his brother play, already starting to understand soccer’s intricacies at a young age. Tanner wasn’t even old enough to play on a team, but he knew he wanted to be around soccer as much as he could. Whenever he could watch soccer, he did. Once he was old enough to play, he knew more than most kids his age and didn’t hide it when he was on the field for his father’s team. “I remember when he

Junior midfielder Tanner Thompson moves to get a loose ball during the first half of the game against Ohio state on Oct. 10 at Bill Armstrong Stadium. The Hoosiers lost 1-0 in overtime.

To the casual fan, Tanner’s junior season has not been great. He only has two goals, one from a penalty kick. He’s had some hard luck around the goal. He’s hit the post a few times and had some near misses. The goals aren’t coming for the attacking player. But he said he doesn’t care, because he’s not too concerned with scoring goals. “I’ve always been more of an assist kind of guy,” Tanner said. “I’ll score goals

occasionally, but for the most part it’s more assists, and I don’t mind that at all. I like setting up plays.” Tanner has seven assists, the most of any Big Ten player. The number only increases if you include the number of goals he’s created for which he isn’t credited the assist. But he said he doesn’t care about the statistic; rather, he cares about how many times his team wins — or loses, for that matter. “It’s why the other guys love him so much,” Yeagley said. “He’s obviously as talented as they come in the country at his position, but he’s all about the team.” He’s always been this way — the assister and not the scorer. He has the Granite Bay High School record for assists in a season with 21. For Tanner, standing out from his brother Tommy was difficult. He never was a flashy player and doesn’t like being viewed as one, he said. While playing midfield suits his personality, it also suits his skillset. He wasn’t fast enough to play forward or big enough to play defense, Gregg said. So he became a midfielder. “He had good ball skills and an ability to find passes and those other things, and that’s something that takes a while for somebody to watch and figure that stuff out,” Gregg said. Tanner never had a lot of interest in the ball tricks Tommy would spend hours in the garage practicing, Gregg said. Even his cleats, the cleats all three brothers wore, are non-descript. When the three were younger, they

$7,000 and $9,000. However, this year the IMU has raised its goal to $10,000. Along with this new goal, the IMU is accepting more non-perishable food items than in previous years because more people said they wanted to donate canned goods. “Whatever it is, we have to make it easy for people to donate,” Gray said. “You know, if we make it a really difficult

thing that they have to come out and do, it’s not going to work, so it’s got to be something easy and spontaneous they can do.” Like most communities in the United States, Gray said, there is a big need locally for those who are food insecure. He said it’s necessary to promote and help the Hoosier Hills Food Bank as much as possible. “Even though the Hoo-

sier Hills does great things for the community — you know, sending more than 4 million pounds last year — it’s still not enough,” Gray said. Although the fundraiser happens every fall, the IMU works with the Hoosier Hills Food Bank and its mealshare program year round, as it donates leftover food from the Tudor Room, the Market and catering.

was younger, he was like a little coach on the field for me,” Gregg, said. “He would mimic everything I say and make demands of players like I would in practice.” As he got older, Tanner’s soccer obsession only increased. Sometimes after games, the brothers and their father would be riding home and Gregg would say something about the game. Tommy and Ty would nod their heads and silently agree. Tanner, on the other hand, would let his father know if he disagreed. “We would always get into — I wouldn’t say heated — discussions, but definitely discussions,” Gregg said. Now at IU, Tanner is a little different from other college players. He understands the game at a different level, IU Coach Todd Yeagley said. He sees things other players don’t. “He’s been around the game a long time. He’s watched a lot of soccer. It’s in his DNA,” Yeagley said. “It’s the way he understands the game.” * * *

wanted brightly colored cleats, like most other kids their age. Gregg said he couldn’t believe it. These were 10-year old kids who wanted $200 cleats. He told them they all had to wear Adidas Copas, the cleats he wore in the Olympics. Tanner still wears the Copas, which might be the least flashy cleats in all of soccer. Now he has a blacked-out version, mixed among the bright blue, green and yellow cleats his teammates wear. “I don’t like being viewed as flashy,” Tanner said. “I don’t like all the flashy cleats and everything like that. I have blacked out Copas — old school.” * * *

Sometimes, watching Tanner play, it’s hard to tell he’s the creative playmaker in the IU midfield. Not because of any lack of playmaking ability — he has plenty of that — but because he does things no one else at his position does. He’ll challenge for headers with players a half-foot taller, make 30-yard runs tracking back to break up a play or go in hard for a tackle and pick up a yellow card. That last one is a problem, actually. With four yellow cards this season, one more means a suspension. “He’s not afraid to get a little bit ugly and do some of the things we call role-player work as a creative player,” Yeagley said. “That’s why he’s really well-rounded.” Understanding where

Tanner came from, it’s not hard to figure out why he never quits on a play and does the kind of work not required of him. Not wanting to be in the limelight makes sense. He said he’s used to opponents focusing on him. Instead of trying something flashy to beat the entire team, he’ll just play a pass to a wide-open teammate so he can score or get the assist. As long as the ball ends up in the back of the opponents net more than his own, Tanner said he doesn’t care. He doesn’t want to lose. “It’s not even the fact winning’s so great, it’s just losing is the worst,” Tanner said. “To avoid that bad feeling you have to win, that’s kind of my mindset.”

The leftover food is then distributed to different meal shares to be given to the community. “That way we’re not just throwing our waste in the garbage,” Gray added. Along with these two initiatives, the IMU will also take part in a roundup campaign in the spring through which consumers can round up their purchase to the nearest dollar

to donate to Hoosier Hills Food Bank. The IMU will also ask for donations from anyone who dines at the Tudor Room on Thanksgiving. Gray said it is a responsibility of the IMU to give back to the community. “You know, we exist in this community because of the community,” Gray said. “So it’s important for us to give back to that.”

Yan Li, Yaolin Wang’s cousin, holds Jielin Wang, Yaolin’s sister, in front of her casket before it went underground during the burial service on Oct. 11. Jielin was the last one to leave after the casket was in the ground.

OVERLOOKED Timeline of events Spring 2015 The pair start to know each other. Sometime during the spring semester, Daniel Xiao moves into Yaolin Wang's living room in Seattle. Two weeks later he moves into her bedroom. April 25 Yaolin flies to London to visit her sister. Her sister said it seemed sudden. She stays with her until May 5th. July 19 Yaolin flies back to China. Xiao tries to stop her. He threatens her and tries to stop her from going. She called her friends for help. Her father picks her up from the Beijing airport. When he hugs her, he realizes how thin she had become. She was crying, but told him everything would be fine because she was going to IU. August 6 Yaolin and her friend Xu Gao arrive in Bloomington and check into a hotel. They look for apartments. Yaolin has been video chatting with Xiao. August 18 Yaolin moves into the Stratum apartments in Bloomington. August 22 According to her roommate in Bloomington, Yaolin picks Xiao up from the airport on this day. Sept. 10 Yaolin is locked out of her apartment. Stratum disables the deadbolt for her. When they open the door, Xiao is inside. Sept. 16 Yaolin's father and cousins arrive to visit her in Bloomington. She lies to them about Xiao living in the apartment. Her father buys Yaolin a car during this visit. It is last time he sees her. Sept. 19 Xiao leaves. He says he's going back to Seattle. Her family is still in town at this point. Her father gives Yaolin $1,000 in cash, but the money was never deposited or found. Sept. 30 Xiao reappears in Bloomington. Yaolin sees him and texts her roommate, "my worst nightmare is here." Someone calls 911 at about 9:20 p.m. after having found Xiao dead in the stairwell.

A sweater, skirt, tights and a pair of black velvet gloves concealed the stab wounds. Yaolin Wang’s family and friends lined up to see her for the last time. In a sudden outburst, her mother threw herself on the casket and tried to lift her daughter’s high collar, wanting to see the injuries. Her other daughter, Jielin recalls this story and said she pulled her mom back. “Mom, don’t,” she said. “Just let me comb through her hair one more time,” Yaolin’s mother said through tears. When friends first heard the news that Yaolin, a 21-year-old transfer student from China, was dead, they assumed Daniel Xiao was her killer, even before police confirmed. A close friend heard her crying when Daniel locked her out of her apartment. A roommate in Seattle saw the welts he left on her body. A friend in Bloomington let her stay in her apartment when she needed shelter. When her friends put the bits of information they each had together, the image of an abuser came into focus. Now they helplessly relive the moments that could have kept Yaolin alive. * * * Police first responded to a 911 call from the Stratum apartments near College Mall. Daniel’s body had been found in a stairwell. When police arrived, they discovered Yaolin Yaolin’s body on a nearby patio. From the beginning, officers worked under the assumption the case was a murder-suicide. Police were initially led to believe the two were in a “mutually romantic relationship,” said Capt. Joe Qualters of the Bloomington Police Department during press time. As the investigation continued, police began to uncover evidence that led them to believe Daniel was forcing the relationship. “This other side emerged about how controlling he was,” Qualters said. Yaolin and Daniel met earlier this year during their spring semester, according to a police statement. Both were students at North Seattle College. Soon after they met, Daniel became Yaolin’s second roommate. Accounts from close friends detail a pattern of abuse in the months following. Yaolin never told her family or the police. Daniel arrived in Bloomington on Aug. 22, according to a police statement, where he stayed in Yaolin’s apartment. He left again on Sept. 19, saying he intended to go back to school. Daniel reappeared in Bloomington unannounced on Sept. 30. Later that evening, she was dead, allegedly stabbed to death by Daniel. “I pray to God that she didn’t suffer,” said Eric Powell, co-owner of The Funeral Chapel of Powell and Deckard. Powell was responsible for dressing Yaolin’s body for the funeral. He said it was apparent her body had been through a lot of trauma. But the details of her wounds are

unknown — the Monroe County coroner failed to respond to multiple requests for comment. After seeing Yaolin’s body, Powell went home and hugged his own daughter. He thanked God he still could, knowing Yaolin’s father no longer could do the same. A pattern of abuse Gloria, Yaolin’s roommate in Seattle, saw Daniel harass Yaolin and force himself into her room against her will. She heard the fighting in Yaolin’s room. When the noise died down, Daniel would come out and act like nothing happened. Gloria, who would not give her last name, never suspected Daniel was abusive until the night he pushed and threatened her. That night, the yelling started again. Except this time, Gloria could hear someone being pushed on to a dresser and Yaolin’s screaming. She said the fight no longer seemed normal. Gloria walked up to Yaolin’s door and knocked. When Yaolin opened the door, Gloria could see a raised red mark on Yaolin’s forehead and finger marks on her waist. “It’s OK,” Yaolin said to her. “Everything is fine.” Daniel appeared and seemed irritated. His expression was unfamiliar and scared Gloria. Still, she told him she couldn’t tolerate such loud, physical violence. Daniel shoved Gloria with both hands. She was shocked, scared and then cried out loud. Yaolin jumped in front of her, protecting her from Daniel. When she said she wanted to call the police, Daniel threatened “Don’t you dare call police, my family is powerful back in China.” The police were never called.

China. But Daniel wouldn’t let her leave. She messaged Meghan on the chatting app WeChat, “Help me, he won’t let me leave for China.” So Daniel took away her phone. After a couple of hours, Yaolin took her phone back, stole away to the bathroom and messaged her friends for help. When Meghan got home and finally saw Yaolin’s messages, it was around midnight. She called a cab and dragged a friend along with her to get Yaolin. When they arrived, Yaolin moved her suitcases out of her room one by one. After Yaolin got in the cab, Daniel started calling her. She picked up. “If I don’t leave, are you going to kill me?” Meghan remembers her saying into the phone. By the time they got back to Meghan’s place, it was 4 a.m. No one said much. Yaolin hung up another call from Daniel. “I have to go back,” she said to Meghan. Yaolin told Meghan she had left a suitcase at the apartment. Daniel said she would never see it again. No one seems to know what happened after Yaolin went back to the apartment, except that she was able to get on a plane to the Beijing airport. He hadn’t seen his daughter in a while. He was shocked when he first saw how bony Yaolin was when she walked up to him, her father said. Yaolin rushed into his chest. “How did you become so thin?” he asked. She began to cry. “Did you miss home?” She nodded. “Did you have a fight with your classmates?” She looked up, hesitated a moment. “Nothing, now. I’m going to the new university. Everything will be fine now.”

* * * * * * Yaolin tried everything she could think of to get rid of Daniel. Knowing little about the American police system, Yaolin had told her friends she would rather tolerate the abuse, knowing the day would soon come when she could leave Seattle and Daniel behind. That day came on July 18. At around 7 p.m., she was packing for a trip back to

SEÑORITA IN SEVILLE

Shukrán, Morocco (Thank you, Morocco): A weekend of exploring As my weeks abroad tick by faster and faster, this weekend I killed two birds with one stone as I crossed both a new country and continent off my travel checklist. My study-abroad group explored a total of three Moroccan cities. We began with Tangier and ended in Tétouan, but our main stay was in the city of Chefchaouen in the mountains. Our guide, Abdeslam, who had enough energy for our entire group, provided us with all the details and history of each city. Upon our arrival in Chefchaouen, we were matched with Moroccan host students in groups of two or three. I always prefer this to staying in a hotel or hostel, partly for a more authentic experience, but mostly

because it as an opportunity to make international friends and get to know people of a different culture. My friend and I were paired with the youngest of the host students, a 16-yearold high school girl named Yousra, who studies economics. As soon as I entered her room, which we stayed in, I noticed inspirational quotes on her wall, much like I might find in mine — granted, hers were written in three languages, while all of mine are merely in English. That was one of the things I found most impressive — the number of languages many people in Morocco could speak. The students we spent time with could all speak Arabic, French and English, and several were learning a fourth language.

In the morning of our full day in Chefchaouen, we took a short hike through the mountains to see one of the mosques at the top and to experience a view of the entire city. Chefchaouen primarily consists of blue buildings, and therefore is often referred to as “The Blue City.” Halfway through Saturday, we visited the foundation the mother of our main host student, Akram, started: The Alawite Organization for the Care of Blind People. It is a foundation that offers work for blind citizens, where they are able to use their other senses to create garments and home goods to sell in its shop and support their families in the process.

remember forever was the lunch we enjoyed. Our meal consisted of several courses, ranging from a beautiful veggie platter to a full chicken doused in rich sauce to endless pomegranates. As we finished our meal, there was a quartet from the music conservatory in Chefchaouen that played in the living room of our host, Akram’s aunt, and the merriment that filled the room was immeasurable. Amidst the music and cheer we enjoyed mint tea, henna tattooing and overall good company. I think a lot of times, when people travel, they

focus too much on cultural differences and not enough on the things that bring people together. Perhaps the most rewarding part of traveling is that, although at

first things might seem extremely foreign, and many certainly are, you can always find a common ground or something that connects two cultures or two people.

Music Summit to gather local musicians, students By Cassie Heeke cnheeke@indiana.edu | @cnheeke

The Music Industry Networking Club at IU is accepting sponsorship donations for its annual Bloomington Music Summit from 3 to 8 p.m. Nov. 14 in the Frangipani room of the Indiana Memorial Union, according to a press release. The summit gathers together local musicians, venue and club owners, and music fans, according to the release. It is a collaborative effort by the Music Industry Networking Club and IU Union Board’s Live From Bloomington Committee. According to the event’s mission statement, it brings “relevant industry contacts to the young future music executives of Indiana University.” The target audience for the event comprises IU students interested in music industry careers in performance, management, artists and repertoire and production. The goals for the summit include sparking interest in the

School of Public and Environmental Affairs’ arts administration program, connecting local artists with Bloomington music industry contacts, showcasing local talent, and promoting networking between students and professionals, according to the release. MINC Vice President Melissa Sommer said she has been actively involved in the planning of this and last year’s summits. The club has been working to put together the event since the beginning of the semester, she said, and the large amount of work is accomplished by several different committees. The first part of the event is made up of three panels. Dinner and networking is scheduled between the last two panels, and keynote speaker Katherine Coplen, Nuvo News’ music editor, will end this first phase. The second part will have both a local music showcase and a networking conference. The showcase is new this year and will fea-

ture several different live performances by bands, Sommer said. There are three levels of sponsorship, according to the release. Participating sponsors, who donate $50, will get their company logo incorporated in the official event poster and two free admission badges. Major sponsors, who donate $100, will also have their company logo on the event posters along with five free admission badges and company advertisement in the conference program. Finally, presenting sponsors, who donate $500, will receive their logo on the poster, five admission badges, company advertisement in the program, the opportunity to set up a table or booth at the conference and exclusive sponsorship of a panel discussion. Sommer said about 100 people attended last year, and MINC is looking forward to a good turnout again this year. “We’re all really excited,” Sommer said. “I think it’s going to be an awesome event.”

Prone masturbation a threat? Probably not. Kinsey Confidential is a service of the Kinsey Institute and the IU School of Public Health. For more good sex information, podcasts or to submit a question, visit us online at kinseyconfidential.org.

SAXOPHONE SOLO Jazz Ensemble Director Brent Wallarab listens from the side of the stage as tenor saxophone soloist Sam Motter performs his piece during Ken Schaphorst’s “Bats” Monday evening at the Musical Arts Center. The ensemble’s show was the 206th program of the 2015-16 season for the Jacobs School of Music.

Somewhere I read that prone masturbation (facing downward and rubbing the penis with bedding, etc.) results in sexual health related issues like erectile dysfunction. How true is it? Are there any real threats of prone masturbation? Probably not. Some males and females of all ages — from childhood through adulthood — engage in prone masturbation, lying down on a bed or floor and rubbing their genitals, whether to orgasm or not. Some sex therapists and educators have noticed that men with delayed ejaculation often describe having engaged in prone masturbation or other less common forms of masturbation, often since childhood. (Delayed ejaculation, DE, refers to taking a very long time to ejaculate, such as 45 to 60 minutes, even when one wants to come sooner.) In my professional experience, this has been something I’ve noticed, too — that many men who wish they could ejaculate sooner seem to more often say that they’ve long masturbated in a prone position or with a very particular and often unusual hand position. So what does that mean?

Does that mean that prone masturbation or the hand position “caused” them to develop DE? It could be, though we need far more research to see if that’s true or not. Another possibility is that, even at early ages, some people just need greater pressure or stimulation on their genitals than other people in order to feel excitable or orgasmic and that this need for more pressure is what both drives them to use a prone masturbation position AND also what explains the fact that it takes longer for them to come. For example, one college-aged guy who came to me for help said that he had always needed more pressure for masturbation; regular hand masturbation did little for him. But he didn’t use prone masturbation either; rather, he had discovered his mom’s very intense Hitachi magic wand vibrator when he was a teenager (the Hitachi is one of the most intense vibrators around) and found he could ejaculate when he used that on his penis. Since his genitals had always been relatively insensitive (not responding to hand stimulation) he had no reason to believe he “caused” his DE by using a vibrator; rather, using a vibrator was just what he needed. But let’s say you want to learn to ejaculate in other ways. Some men find that varying their masturbation technique can, over time, help them learn to respond to other forms of stimulation. It can take weeks or months but here’s

what some men do: they limit their masturbation so that, if they currently masturbate every day, they reduce their masturbation frequency to two to three times a week or less often. That way they build sexual tension. Then, when they do masturbate, they try masturbating some other way such as using their hands or a vibrator, using lubricant sometimes and not other, rubbing against a soft blanket rather than a mattress, and so on. You get the point. Over time, many men find that this variation helps them. Other men find it helpful to meet with a sex therapist and work out a treatment plan which can also involve talk therapy. This can be especially helpful if you feel any guilt, anxiety, shame or embarrassment related to masturbation or other sexual or relationship issues. You can find a sex therapist through sstarnet.org. And if you simply enjoy prone masturbation and don’t have any sexual concerns or problems related to it, simply enjoy it! Many men and women do.

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Hoosiers land guard, first 2017 season commit By Andy Wittry awittry@indiana.edu | @AndyWittry

A weekend campus visit centered on Hoosier Hysteria secured IU’s first commitment for the Hoosiers’ 2017 recruiting class. Aljami “Al” Durham, a 6-foot-4 guard from Georgia, verbally committed to IU on Monday morning. “After discussing my options with my family, we have decided that Indiana University will be the best place for me to attend college and further my basketball career,” Durham said in a statement posted on his Twitter account, which included an edited picture of him in an IU uniform. This weekend was Durham’s second visit to Bloomington. He also visited in June, but this time his entire family was able to see the school and its basketball program. Durham’s father, also named Al, said his son was ready to commit after his latest trip to IU. “We got a lot of offers, and we’ve seen a lot of schools, and why wait?” he asked rhetorically. “Indiana is Indiana basketball.” The Lilburn, Georgia, native also received offers from Georgia, Florida and Virginia Tech, among other schools. The elder Durham said IU’s level of commitment and dedication displayed during the weekend impressed him the most about the program. “The way they operated was like a well-oiled machine,” Durham’s father said. “They were on point, from here to there, the practice, and I’ve seen the commitment from the ball boys to the head coach.” The coaches stopped practice to introduce themselves to Durham’s family, and IU Coach Tom Crean later spent an hour and a half talking with them. “Throughout the day they made us feel like we were the only ones there,” Durham’s father said. By committing to IU a year

and a half before he will arrive on campus, Durham has time to improve his game with the goal of contributing as a freshman. When Durham suits up in a cream and crimson uniform, the Hoosiers’ backcourt will look completely different than it does today. Senior point guard Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell, senior shooting guard Nick Zeisloft and junior wing Troy Williams will have exhausted their eligibility, and sophomore guard James Blackmon Jr. could choose to make the jump to the NBA after either of the next two seasons. Sophomore guard Robert Johnson and junior transfer guard Josh Newkirk will be seniors when Durham is a freshman. The Hoosiers also have a pair of 2016 guards — Grant Gelon and Curtis Jones — who have verbally committed to IU. “He’s their first recruit, first commit for 2017, so with Yogi, Blackmon and all those guys possibly going to be gone to the NBA, the situation’s perfect for him to come in as long as he continues to improve,” Durham’s father said. A left-handed shooter who can also handle the ball, Durham will provide versatility for IU. His father projects him to be able to play the one, two or three spots in college. “He’s going to have to get stronger, but he’ll be a great asset because he’s so versatile and athletic,” Durham’s father said. “He can play all those positions.” The high school junior held his own this summer on the Nike Elite Youth Basketball League AAU circuit, where he played up a year with the Southern Stampede. “Now the work begins,” Durham said. “It’s going to come quick, but he has some time so he doesn’t come in green as a freshman where he’ll start from ground one. He can at least come in midlevel and be ready when he gets there.”

WOMEN’S GOLF

IU senior ties school record first day of tournament By Jake Thomer jjthomer@indiana.edu | @jake_the_thomer

Led by a record-tying performance from senior Camille Chevalier, the IU women’s golf team posted a score of 285 on the first day of the Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown on Sunday. The combined score was good enough for one under par as a team and landed the Hoosiers in 14th place out of 19 teams in Boulder Creek, Nevada. Chevalier led the Hoosiers with a score of 67, five under par, in the first round, a career-best score and tied three former Hoosiers for the lowest round in team history. The most recent IU 67 score was Jacqueline Yanch in the final round of the Challenge at Onion Creek in November 2009. After a shaky first five holes that alternated between birdie and bogey, Chevalier said she knew she was at a crucial point in her round. “At the beginning I knew it was going to be a day with a lot of birdie opportunities, so I was kind of stressed out,” Chevalier said. “I realized I had to be patient and just calm down, and I’m very happy because I managed myself pretty well.” Chevalier finished strong, posting three birdies and six pars on the back nine and placing herself squarely in the mix on the individual leaderboard in a tie for third place. Chevalier’s day for the

record books, in conjunction with another career-best score, a 71 from junior Pear Siriko, paced the Hoosiers. Freshmen Erin Harper and Eva Domingo, in addition to junior Ana Sanjuan, rounded out the first round scores with 73, 74 and 75, respectively. The 285 posted by the Hoosiers was the lowest team score since the team notched a 285 in the second round at the IU Fall Invitational in October 2012. “Boulder Creek kind of plays into our strengths I think, in terms of length and having pretty good greens, so I’m very excited about heading out there,” Wallman said. Wallman also noted the strength of the other teams in the tournament, including three fellow Big Ten teams — Michigan, Nebraska, and Minnesota. Following the first round of action Sunday, Michigan and San Jose State were tied atop the leaderboard with scores of 275, 13 under par. The second round of the tournament took place Monday, with the final round coming Tuesday before the Hoosiers return from Las Vegas. For Chevalier and the rest of the team, the key will be continuing their strong start to the tournament with consistent play the next two rounds. “Tomorrow I’m just going to try to stay patient, hit my targets, hit one shot at a time,” Chevalier said.

FOOTBALL

Wilson calls for more effort By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu | @trlehman_IDS

IU Coach Kevin Wilson referred back to his days at Miami University when he said there were three reasons why a player does not play well in a football game. The player isn’t good enough physically, he doesn’t trust himself or he doesn’t trust the scheme in which the team is run. “To me, if you’re playing toe-to-toe with some good teams for a long time, then you’re close to being good enough,” Wilson said. “Then you have to trust yourself and whether you’re good enough. That’s a part of some young guys, but sometimes I don’t know if it’s a mistake mentally as much as it is a lack of trust, whether it be in himself, the scheme, and he tries freelancing.” Wilson mentioned this philosophy in his weekly press conference Monday, after IU lost 52-26 to No. 7 Michigan State on Saturday. The loss was IU’s fourth consecutive loss after starting the season 4-0, a streak which included a close loss to No. 1 Ohio State, a botched 25-point lead to Rutgers and a two-point deficit in the fourth quarter against Michigan State. Wilson compared the several missed opportunities to professional golfer Dustin Johnson’s collapse in the 2015 U.S. Open. Heading to the final green ahead by two strokes, Johnson missed a 12-foot putt and then a seven-foot putt to lose his first major title. “You have to be good enough to get into those positions,” Wilson said. “Now, where do you go from there? You have to get to that position, but that doesn’t justify losing because we don’t like that. Is that all you wanted, to get close? Or do you want to go further?” Griffin Oakes Sophomore kicker Griffin Oakes missed three kicks Saturday against Michigan State — two extra points and a field goal — leaving five points off the scoreboard for IU. Wilson said Oakes will still kick field goals for the Hoosiers, as he leads the Big Ten in field goal

percentage with 83.3 percent, making 10 of his 12 attempted field goals this season. His body language is what Wilson said he is keeping an eye on in games where Oakes misses field goals because it affects his teammates in a negative way, mentally, when the kicker wears his emotions on his sleeve. “The field goal he missed was a really solid kick,” Wilson said. “I reminded him today that (former Hoosier) Mitch Ewald is one of the best kickers I’ve been around, and he hit the crossbar a couple times at Ohio State. He hit 100 PATs in a row and then missed 101 at Penn State.” Jordan Howard Junior running

Jordan Howard played his first game Saturday after missing 2 1/2 games dating back to the Ohio State loss. He ran the ball 11 times for 78 yards and a touchdown, including a season-long carry of 37 yards. “What you need to do to play good is you need to get — not just healthy — but when you get back to consistently practicing kind of good,” Wilson said. “The problem was that yeah, he’s got another week to get better, but does that get him into a loophole, where he’s not improving.” Wilson said playing him against Michigan State provided the opportunity for the junior to get the reps he needs to get back to the shape he was in before his ankle injury.

Camion Patrick running wildcat Sophomore receiver Camion Patrick, who transferred to IU after playing for East Mississippi Community College, has not seen the field this season after an issue in credit transfers prevented him from being eligible in 2015. Wilson hinted at the receiver playing in a wildcat formation next season for the Hoosiers. “He’s actually a pretty good runner,” Wilson said about the 6-foot-2 receiver. “He’s been playing at tailback, so he’s a pretty skilled kid. We would have loved to have had him this year, but it’s good to see him — this is about the fourth week in a row we’ve called him our player — playing well when he has to sit out.”

called the office anyway, and someone came to disable the deadbolt on her door, Susan said. Daniel was sitting in the living room, acting like nothing happened. She messaged her roommate again. “I will call police after I get back from school tonight,” Yaolin told Susan in a message. “Even if the result is bad, even if I have to go back to China, even if I have to leave I will call police.” Susan tried persuade Yaolin not to call. “Listen to me, you are both students who have to go to school, no need to put police in this situation, right?” Susan said in a message to Yaolin. “But you don’t know the situation I’m in,” Yaolin said. “I have no other way anymore.” Again, she didn’t call the

Knowing Yaolin wanted to get rid of Daniel, Xu asked why she agreed to allow him to come to Bloomington. Yaolin didn’t expect things to be different. Yaolin told Xu she hoped when Daniel broke his promises, she would have a valid excuse to get rid of him. Two weeks after Daniel’s arrival the abuse came back. On Sept. 10, Daniel locked Yaolin out of her apartment. She messaged Susan saying, “I’m going crazy.” Yaolin wanted to ask for the leasing office’s help.

police. Four days later, Xu received a message from Yaolin at 1:23 a.m. “Are you awake? I got beaten.” Xu asked Yaolin to come over. She said she couldn’t. Daniel was beating her and wouldn’t let her out of his sight. Yaolin snuck out around 7 a.m. that morning and stayed in Xu’s apartment. Soon after, her father came to visit from China to celebrate Yaolin’s 21st birthday. On the last day of her father’s visit, Daniel packed his suitcases and left the apartment. He told Susan he was going back to Seattle. Yaolin thought it was over, until she walked out of her apartment the afternoon of Sept. 30 and saw Daniel standing outside. At 2:01 p.m.

Cultural divide Yaolin thought about calling the police after Daniel came to Bloomington, when the abuse, detailed by her friends, began again. Her roommate discouraged her repeatedly whenever she expressed a desire to call the police. With the little information everyone knew, they never saw the relationship as abusive. “I just thought this was another normal case of a girl not being able to get rid of a guy,” Xu said. Xu said she felt guilty, remembering many opportunities she could have saved Yaolin’s life. She thought about talking to someone at Counseling and Psychological Services at first. But now, after she got over the initial pain, Xu said she doesn’t want to let go of her guilt. “I have to have a scar to remind me not to make the same mistake again,” Xu said. Nancy Stockton, director of CAPS, said victims of abuse not reaching out for help is an almost universal pattern across cultures. “The abuser’s control over the woman is nearly absolute,” Stockton said. As is often the case when students die, several people came to CAPS seeking counseling for Yaolin’s death. There is no Mandarin-speaking counselor at CAPS, though Stockton is actively seeking one. An after-hours contact number offers counseling in Mandarin. Kai Lin, a researcher at the University of Delaware who has attended colleges both in

China and the U.S., said there should be a system in place to offer support to international students from the moment they arrive on campus. “Having that kind of social support is very, very important,” Lin said. Lin was part of a team that published a study comparing American and Chinese students’ perceptions of intimate partner violence. One of the primary findings of the team’s research was that Chinese students perceive fewer actions as abuse. Because fewer Chinese students see abuse as a crime, Lin said, they are also less likely to call the police. The study Lin worked on stated police in mainland China were less likely to intervene in cases of violence between couples. “... Many police officers regard (intimate partner violence) as private matters beyond police responsibilities and often refuse to accept or process victims’ complaints,” according to the study. Back to living At the funeral home, Meghan imagined the place where they kept Yaolin’s body would be dark and cold. But the room was filled with yellow light. There was a floral scent in the air. Meghan saw Yaolin lying on the dressing table, covered by a cream-colored blanket. Yaolin’s eyelashes were curled neatly. Meghan was almost convinced Yaolin was just sleeping. “She’s not dead,” she remembers thinking. If Meghan was alone, she said she would have called Yaolin’s name over and over until she woke up.

hardly believe her sister would never get up again. During Jielin’s visit to Bloomington for the funeral, she picked up Yaolin’s belongings at the police station. She froze when she saw the bag Yaolin was carrying the day of her death. The leather tote bag, once deep blue, was covered with dried blood — her sister’s blood. Scrubbing the blood off, she began to cry. Jielin remembered how much Yaolin hated vaccine shots when she was a little girl. She’d cry out, ‘It hurts.’ “I couldn’t imagine how much pain she must have been in when it happened.” When she learned the details of her sister’s murder, Jielin couldn’t sleep. Every time she closed her eyes she saw her little sister, alone and frightened, crying “Sister, help me, sister help me.” She would give up anything — her own life, even — to have Yaolin back. “I’d rather I took those stabs,” Jielin said. Jielin floated through the days when she found out about her sister’s death as if she was dreaming. Sitting in the airplane seat for the plane bound back to London from Indiana, forcing herself to accept her sister was gone forever, Jielin posted on her WeChat: “If I fly a little bit higher, even higher, does that mean I could be closer to you?”

Karen Knight, M.S., LMHC Counseling Services While in school, it is important to be able to focus on your studies. Your first year away from home can be a challenge. Thinking about future anxieties, past errors, or current stressors can limit the amount of energy you have to be successful. When you come in, we can identify what is blocking your energy and get you headed in the right direction again. Major insurances accepted at my downtown office.
