RFRA laws across America and how Indiana is different While 19 other states and the federal government have RFRA laws, Indiana’s has caused a stir for a variety of differences.

First is the public perception of marriage equality today versus when the 20 other laws were passed.

Public approval of same-sex marriage is much higher today than it was in the 1990s when many of these other RFRA laws were passed.

Indiana also has no equal protection status for sexual orientation.

If a court case based on sexual orientation went through the Indiana court system, the people claiming discrimination would not receive protection.

IU released a statement approving of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act changes made by the Indiana General Assembly in a press release Thursday morning.

IU appreciates that nothing in the RFRA bill will provide legal

Since the inception of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, Gov. Mike Pence’s defensive rhetoric has changed drastically.

MARCH 24 “The legislation, SB 101, is about respecting and reassuring Hoosiers that their religious freedoms are intact. I strongly support the legislation and applaud the members of the General Assembly for their work on this important issue.”

Gov. Mike Pence, on the passage of the bill

MARCH 29 “This is not about disputes between individuals. It’s about government overreach. And I’m proud that Indiana stepped forward.”

Pence, on “This Week” with George Stephanopoulos

MARCH 31 “I abhor discrimination. I believe in the Golden Rule that you should ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.’ If I saw a restaurant owner refuse to serve a gay couple, I wouldn’t eat there anymore.”

Pence, in a Wall Street Journal op-ed

“Let me say, on the — the subject of the bill itself, I don’t believe for a minute that it was the intention of the General Assembly to create a license to discriminate or right to deny services to gays, lesbians or anyone else in this state. And it certainly wasn’t my intent. But I can appreciate that that’s become the perception, not just here in Indiana but all across this country, and we need to confront that and confront it boldly in a way that respects the interests of all involved.”

INtouch for IUSA appoints new vice president

By Ashleigh Sherman aesherma@indiana.edu | @aesherma

Jalen Watkins has replaced Ty Nocita as the INtouch for IUSA vice president of congress candidate.

Anne Tinder, INtouch for IUSA’s presidential candidate, said Nocita stepped down for personal reasons.

“INtouch has always been a ticket about our goals and policies more than individuals, and we were able to move forward without hesitation,” she said.

Prior to stepping in as the vice president of congress candidate, Watkins contributed to INtouch for IUSA’s outreach team, coordinating student organization visits and sharing the ticket’s platforms, Tinder said.

Though Watkins said the ticket’s platform — particularly its focus on IU Counseling and Psychological Services — attracted him to the ticket, in the end, the people were what led him to it.

“That’s really what it comes down to when you break down an administration — the people,” he said.

“Do they have, one, the

capacity to do the work and, two, are they willing to do the work? And I found both of those things there when meeting the INtouch team, and I’ve had no complaints.”

Prior to Watkins contributing to the INtouch for IUSA outreach team, Watkins participated in congress’ student relations committee, first as a committee member and recently as the committee chair.

“That’s when I got to become even more involved and meet with the other committee chairs and make further relationships,” he said.

If elected, Watkins said his experience as a member of congress will shape his time as the vice president.

“One, I know how operations work, and two, I know how to execute things,” he said. “I also meet every single person involved with congress.”

Tinder said she thinks Watkins’s experience will particularly shape his approach to collaboration.

“I think Jalen feels especially strongly about communication between the legislative and

executive branches as a result of his time in congress,” she said. “He knows that congress’ resolutions can’t be effective without follow-through from the executives. ” If elected, Watkins said all congress committee chairs will regularly meet with executives.

“Collaboration to INtouch as a whole is crucial, just because when you have a conglomerate of different activities and organizations, it’s very crucial that they are interactive with each other,” he said. “And to have IUSA not interactive within itself is a huge conflict.

“IUSA is supposed to be the student organization,” he added. “And there’s no communication within IUSA. That doesn’t propel and that doesn’t send the right messages to other student organizations on campus.”

Watkins said he thinks his experience will also shape his approach to diversity.

As a member of congress, Watkins said he has access to information regarding the makeup of both congress

Class plans event to honor Sociology professors talks women, My Sister’s Closet Latino studies at symposium

afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali

The tables in Alumni Hall were draped in pink Thursday evening, as the Night of Extraordinary Women celebrated My Sister’s Closet and the store’s successes in the community.

First lady of IU Laurie Burns McRobbie, the keynote speaker at the gala, said the shop provides something beyond clothes.

“There’s a Chinese saying, ‘Women hold up half the sky,’” she said. “Organizations like My Sister’s Closet bring us together and hold us accountable so that we as a collective group are holding up at least our half.”

My Sister’s Closet is a boutique that caters to women from all backgrounds.

According to its website, sisterscloset.org, the nonprofit organization offers free professional attire and Success Institute training to low-income or at-risk women.

The gala began with cocktails and a silent auction in the Solarium. Items auctioned off included gift certificates from Baked! of Bloomington, Taste of Brown County and Yogi’s Grill & Bar. Aveda and Sew Chateau Fashion Sewing School provided some of the gift packages for the auction, as well.

Two sandboxes sat next to the silent auction tables, and attendees were encouraged to make a $10 donation to participate in “Buried Treasure.”

Participants were allowed one shovelful of sand as an attempt to find marbles hidden within it, which they would return to draw a number that corresponded with a prize.

Junior Emily Young said the primary goal of the gala was to raise funds and awareness for My Sister’s Closet.

As a student in the School of Public Health’s T410: Event Planning and Program Development class, she said her

team of six students worked all semester on the event.

Young said her team elected My Sister’s Closet because of the effect it has.

“They’ve done so much to help out women within the Bloomington community,” she said. “We just want to celebrate that and celebrate them.”

Junior Dominic Vernasco, another event planner on the team, said it was important to continue the mission of My Sister’s Closet and especially to promote it on IU’s campus.

“We are usually stuck in our campus bubble,” Vernasco said.

Being involved with the gala presents a new perspective on and awareness of the opportunities to give back to the greater community beyond IU, he said.

Alana Luttrell is a featured advocate at the gala. Now a coach for women entering the workforce, Luttrell said she was once a recipient of My Sister’s Closet’s services.

“There’s a Chinese saying, ‘Women hold up half the sky.’”

Laurie McRobbie, IU First Lady

Luttrell said five years ago she was homeless and addicted to drugs. Part of her recovery process, she said, was to get a job.

She said My Sister’s Closet made that possible.

“My Sister’s Closet gave me the clothes for my first job interview, which I got,” Luttrell said. “There are very, very few places that a person can go to get material support that is quality for an interview.”

In her work as a coach for the women she used to be like, Luttrell said they owe many of their successes to My Sister’s Closet and their voucher program.

“It’s the one place that somebody can buy something that makes you feel beautiful at a great price,” she said.

The third annual Cesar Chavez undergraduate research symposium in Latino Studies began Thursday evening.

The Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, the Department of African American and African Diaspora Studies, the Department of History, the Department of Sociology and the La Casa Latino Cultural Center all joined together to sponsor the symposium.

To start off the two-day event, Ginetta Candelario, a sociology professor from Smith College, presented a keynote address about racial misconceptions in Latino studies. Titled “Verstehen Bricolage: Making Artful Use of Multiple Methods in Researching Latinas,” Candelario focused on the terms “white” versus “black” in relation to demographic location and culture.

“Verstehen” is a German term coined by Max Weber meaning to deeply and empathetically understand the meaning and context of human action for the actor herself. This should be looked at as a corrective to Marxism, Candelario said.

“Religious ideology can be as much of an engine or driver as a byproduct,” Candelario said.

The viewpoints that people have about themselves are dependent on their environment, Candelario said.

The lecture then transitioned to the concept of bricolage. From French descent, “bricolage” literally refers to the tinkering of objects together. Candelario said she saw the idea as a mosaic.

“It is artfully put together, and a lot of work, talent and repurposing goes into it,” Candelario said.

The four main social science methods were then

broken down to display how Candelario’s research was conducted.

Ethnographic research is produced through field work and participant observation.

Candelario conducted this particular research in Washington, D.C., California, Texas, the Dominican Republic and a beauty shop in the “hood” of New York City, Candelario said.

Hermeneutic research is then a byproduct of ethnographic research, which focuses on interviewing and textual analysis.

“Membership in belonging is connected to reading the body,” Candelario said.

The last two forms of research are historical and statistical methods. These both use graphical data to map out what the past was like and compare it to depictions of the future.

Candelario then discussed the difference between black Haiti and black Dominican Republic to show the distinction, even on the same island. The depiction of indigenous people was beyond the stereotype for both black Haiti and black Dominican Republic.

In the Dominican Republic, the dictatorship owned all the media. This included

all telegraphs and radio, telephones and televisions and the public school system.

From this dictatorship, an entirely closed society was established. People could only depict people represented in their own closedoff community.

Looking at the U.S. Census, identifying as “black” had a different depiction depending on the differing demographics in the country. Candelario grew up as a Dominican citizen but received her education from kindergarten to high school and college as an American.

“I assimilated and absorbed U.S. perceptions of race,” Candelario said. “This is from the legacy of slavery.”

The keynote address concluded by defining both whiteness and blackness.

Whiteness is the exclusive control over land. This is why a person from the Dominican Republic depicted as black in America will identify as white. Blackness is not owning property in yourself.

People who are called black who normally would not be in their home environment see this term as demeaning.

“If we pay close attention and we back up, we get a deep connection to the story,” Candelario said.

A new car in the Bloomington Police Department’s fleet sits at the station.

BPD fleet keeps streets safe the vehicles’ shifts don’t.

“They’re literally running all the time,” Pope said.

“Year-round. Literally yearround.”

By Andy Wittry awittry@indiana.edu | @AndyWittry

Bloomington Police Deputy Chief Anthony Pope remembers when he began his career in law enforcement 27 years ago and was assigned a Dodge Diplomat police car.

Equipped with a radio, his vehicle was essentially no different from the rest of the Dodge Diplomats in production at the time, or most cars on the road, for that matter.

“The (police) cars really weren’t that much more superior than what the general public had,” he said before spending three minutes listing off modern technological advances in patrol cars.

Resources inside Bloomington Police Department patrol cars include mobile data terminals, radars, ID scanners that highlight wanted individuals and stolen vehicles, printers, a mapping system that locates every BPD vehicle in the area and 800 MHz radios.

“I never in my wildest dreams thought that we would have all the technology that we have in the cars right now,” Pope said.

In fact, there’s almost too much technology inside the vehicles for their own good.

“Literally there’s so much technology in these cars,” he said as he looked out the window of his office at the patrol cars in the BPD’s parking lot, “that we had to tint our windows.”

The vehicles are equipped with so much computerized technology they were overheating in the summer, and the BPD was having difficulty keeping the cars cool enough to keep the equipment operational. Hence the tinted windows.

Pope has given thought to future in-car enhancements. At the top of his wish list is facial and license plate recognition technology. He’s aware of preliminary recognition technology and said he’s hopeful the next generation of officers will have it at

The new patrol vehicles are fitted with new scanners, mapping systems and other technologies that will help BPD more effectively do their jobs.

their disposal.

“They’ll be driving down the road, and someone’s wanted, and as your car’s driving down the road, it tags a facial recognition and goes, ‘Hey, this guy is wanted for murder,’” he said. “Who knows if that’ll happen, but our technology is increasing at such a rapid pace right now that it’s not out of the question.” * * * In total, the BPD has a fleet of 54 vehicles ranging from marked patrol cars to evidence vans to Critical Incident Response Team vans to a Rhino ATV. A fleet maintenance department at the BPD has a color coding system — ranging from “great condition” to “critical” — to define the status of individual vehicles. The classifications take into account vehicle reliability, miles driven and hours of use. Every vehicle has an hours meter because running idle can be just as hard on a vehicle as driving, Pope said.

“Overall, all of our police vehicles have to be acceptable for a pursuit-rated vehicle, an emergency response type vehicle,” he said.

“Once it degrades to the point where it’s no longer acceptable for a emergency response vehicle, it’s time to replace it.”

The BPD’s fleet maintenance department works in tandem with the City of Bloomington to replace vehicles that reach “critical.” When a vehicle’s career is finished with the BPD, it is phased into becoming a training vehicle.

The city estimates how many vehicles it will have to replace — across all of its departments, not just the BPD — on an annual basis and then allots an appropriate amount of money from its general fund to purchase new vehicles.

The number of police vehicles needing to be replaced varies from year to year. Sometimes it’s 12, sometimes it’s as few as four, but it all depends on the condition of the fleet.

Using a state bid system, the BPD generally buys vehicles at a lower cost than what the general public pays for its cars, Pope said.

By the time the average patrol car is transferred to Bloomington and equipped with the proper technology, the bill runs somewhere in the high $20,000s, “which is actually pretty good when you look at what you get for that,” Pope said.

Lifespans of the BPD’s marked cars are typically three years. A three-year lifespan is dwarfed in comparison to most cars. But most cars aren’t driven 24/7.

Officers’ shifts end, but

There’s a common misconception that police officers drive the fastest cars on the road, Pope said.

Though the BPD’s cars are probably a little faster than the average vehicle because of the makes and models its officers drive, they’re not necessarily the fastest.

“What makes the car more superior in a pursuit setting is that officer driving the car,” Pope said.

BPD officers have years of training, radio communication, game plans and tactics that make them the most effective drivers on the streets of Bloomington.

“That’s the factor that makes them superior is just not the car, it’s the driver,” Pope said.

The training process begins at police academies, where future officers go through extensive in-class and hands-on learning.

On an EVO track, cadets learn how to corner vehicles, control and pull out of a skid and maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of them during pursuit, Pope said.

And that behind-thewheel training doesn’t stop at the academies.

Officers are mandated by the state to retrain in EVO training on an annual basis.

“It’s a continual training process,” Pope said.

Too often, Pope said, people see an object when they see a police car, not the person driving it.

“I’d like them not only to see the authority figure that’s driving but understand there’s a human being in the car,” he said. “’Cause you kind of get looked at like you’re an object, not a human, you know, and that’d be nice to see that change.”

When Rabbi Brian Besser thinks about the environment, a rowboat comes to mind.

It’s a story from the Talmud, the Jewish sacred text.

In it, there’s a lot of people sitting in a rowboat, and one man at the end of the boat starts to drill a hole under his seat. All of the other passengers are horrified and ask him why he would do such a thing. “Why do you care?” he replies. “It’s my seat.”

It’s stories such as this one that draw people from many different faith traditions across Indiana to work together to care for the environment through programs like Earth Care Hoosier, an environmental nonprofit for religious organizations, and the Southern Indiana Renewable Energy Network.

“We’re all in this together,” said Besser, the rabbi for Congregation Beth Shalom.

“We all live on this Earth, and we Jews believe that God entrusted man with the responsibility to conserve it.”

It’s for this reason Besser’s congregation, along with five other congregations in Indiana, installed solar panels at their places of worship in 2013. They were able to do so with money received through the Indiana Office of Energy Development’s Community Conservation Challenge grant program. Now other Indiana groups are following in their footsteps.

The Office of Energy Development announced Tuesday the Center for Sustainable Living, a Bloomington-based nonprofit, will receive a $99,989 grant to fund more solar projects for congregations across the state.

The Center for Sustainable Living is a group dedicated to promoting environmentally friendly practices throughout the Bloomington community. It serves as an umbrella organization for other eco-conscious groups.

“It’s about mutual support,” Rhonda Baird, the board president for CSL, said. “When we work together, we’re really able to add momentum to the solar movement in Indiana, plus the first round of panels was received so well that the board immediately approved the idea to apply again.”

The first six congregations from 2013 have reduced energy use in their places of worship by an average of 34 percent, Madi

“When we work together, we’re really able to add momentum to the solar movement in Indiana, plus the first round of panels was received so well that the board immediately approved the idea to apply again.”

Rhonda Baird, board president for the Center for Sustainable Living

Hirschland, Earth Care Bloomington’s founder, said.

“As part of the grant, the congregations commit to reducing their electricity and natural gas use by 25 percent or more and engaging at least a third of their members to take actions that would reduce the household energy use of a typical Hoosier household by at least a seventh,” Hirschland said.

Trinity Episcopal Church, another 2013 recipient in Bloomington, now saves around $2,500 a year from the 72 solar panels on its roof.

“About one-fourth of our energy costs are now covered by the panels,” said Ben Bradson, an IU professor of physics and member of the church. “I think the impact on the church is very positive. The congregation is beginning to really take an interest in sustainable living and how they can reduce their energy use at home.”

Bradson said other congregations with panels have been able to cut their energy costs in half. He estimates their panels will continue working for about 25 to 30 years.

Twenty congregations across Indiana are now committed to the energy objectives Hirschland described.

They include Jewish, Muslim, Protestant and evangelical groups, among others.

This year solar panels will be purchased for five congregations of different faith traditions. Only one of those is in Bloomington, a Quaker church called Bloomington Friends Meeting.

“One of the greatest possibilities from this is being able to bring these different groups together and realize that we all have the same goals,” Bradson said. “This environmental work has the potential to bring people out of conflict to share resources and ideas in a way that’s very powerful.”

Softball to play series against Maryland IU (10-26, 1-6) looks to improve upon its conference record this season when it plays Maryland (21-15, 3-3) this weekend at Andy Mohr Field.

The Hoosiers have lost their last five games

entering this weekend and are set to face a Maryland team that has lost its last two games.

IU and Maryland have only played once before, a 2-1 Maryland victory in 2003.

Throwers grow under Coach

By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu | @trlehman_IU

Sophomore thrower Nakel McClinton sat in third place when she picked up the hammer for her second throw.

After her first throw collided with her leg just before the launching point, she stepped into the circle again with the scorching Arizona heat bearing down on her.

Her teammate, freshman Andrew Miller, and coach, Cory Martin, looked on as McClinton torqued through three smooth turns.

On her fourth turn, she released the hammer.

Scaling down the left sector line, the hammer dropped near the boundary.

Fair.

The final result was 59.66 meters, an IU women’s hammer throw record. But McClinton wasn’t satisfied.

Her goal was 60 meters, a mark that would surely cement her name into national contention at the end of the season.

She failed to reach the length on her four ensuing throws.

“It’s really cool, setting a school record, and I’ve had to keep telling myself that because I really wanted 60 meters,” said McClinton, who broke two-time Big Ten Champion Faith Sherrill’s record of 58.46 meters.

“Never settle” is the creed of IU track and field coaches and players. Even after breaking records, athletes continue to strive for better results.

McClinton joins junior pole vaulter Sophie Gutermuth and sophomore Tre’tez Kinnaird as the three athletes to break school records this season.

They all continue to set personal records.

“You’re going to be talking to her a lot in the future,” Miller said of McClinton.

“I’ve seen her throw so much farther in practice, and she’s only getting better.”

Miller and McClinton train and compete in a throwing group that is young to say the least.

The oldest member, redshirt senior M.J. Doan, is the lone upperclassman. Martin is in his first tenured year as the throws coach for the program.

But youth does not keep IU from throwing long distances.

McClinton, the leading women’s thrower, took home her third victory of the season with her record hammer throw at the Pac-12 vs. Big Ten Invitational and ended her indoor season with a fifth-place finish in the Big Ten women’s weight throw.

Miller began his collegiate career with four second-place finishes, 10 top-10

finishes, and, most recently, a 30-foot personal record in the hammer throw at Arizona State.

His throw of 64.31 meters stands as the third-best throw in IU history.

“It’s a blessing and a curse,” Martin said of the group’s youth. “It’s great that I have the time to mold them into what I want them to look like, but there are growing pains along the way.”

Growing pains have shown up at times on the result sheet, especially in the shot put, where Miller has not placed in an invitational top 10.

McClinton failed to finish in the top 10 of the shot put twice, her only sub-10 throws of the season.

Both athletes continue to improve, however, as both set new personal records at Hoosier Hills, their final home meet in mid-February.

Martin owns the No. 16 shot put throw on the alltime world performance list with his throw of 22.10 meters at the 2010 Tucson Elite Throwers Classic, and Miller said that experience has helped.

“I was at a standstill from my marks in high school last year,” said Miller, who trained with the program as a redshirt athlete in 2014. “Now I’ve improved my throw by about 30 feet. Coach Martin is an essential part of my

“You’re going to be talking to her (McClinton) a lot in the future.”

improvement and hopefully will be in the future as well.”

Martin, a Bloomington native, spent his collegiate track and field career at Auburn University, where he was named an All-American nine times and captured National Championships in the shot put (20.35 meters) and hammer throw (74.13 meters) in 2008.

“Coach Martin has us on the lifting schedule that he had when he threw,” said McClinton, who lifted for three hours with the throwers Tuesday. “It’s nice because he knows how we feel, so we can really connect with him and trust him.”

The decorated throwing coach finished as the runner-up in the 2013 USA Indoor Championships. He qualified for the 2013 World Championships in Moscow but did not place.

“I just really try to bring my experience as a thrower to coaching,” Martin said.

“It’s like being a mad scientist. I can just move things around and adjust to the athletes for what’s best for them.

I love seeing the kids get better.”

IU travels to Stanford Invitational

By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu | @trlehman_IU

A week after setting a school record and recording six top-10 performances for the first time in IU history in their first outdoor meet, the Hoosiers will look to build on their outdoor success this weekend at the Stanford Invitational.

The distance events will be Friday while Saturday will consist of the shorter track and field events.

The meet in Palo Alto, Calif., features several collegiate and professional athletes from across the country, and IU plans to send the majority of its roster, despite traditionally sending only distance runners.

“We aren’t sending quite as many as we did to Arizona State,” IU Coach Ron Helmer said. “Stanford offers highquality competition, though, so we are trying to get the best marks and times on the board as possible.”

Putting quality marks and times on the board early in the season helps more ath-

letes qualify for the NCAA Outdoor Championships later in the season. IU sent just four athletes to the NCAA Indoor Championships in March, a number it hopes to improve.

“It takes a couple of outdoor meets to get adjusted,” Helmer said of the transition between indoor and outdoor seasons. “There’s a comfort level with competing, and this meet will be a step toward that comfort level.”

One athlete who has found that comfort level is junior distance runner Brianna Johnson, who won the women’s 3K steeplechase last weekend.

The steeplechase is only featured in the outdoor season, but Johnson didn’t miss a beat as she ran to a 10:34.98 victory, just the third of her career.

“We’ve been working really hard on steeplechase in the last few months,” said Johnson, who trained in the event during the indoor season while competing in distance races. “It’s paying off because I felt pretty comfort-

able jumping, so I’m really excited to see what the future is.”

During the indoor season, Johnson ran the mile and the distance medley relay in the Big Ten Championships, where she placed 12th in the mile and 11th in the DMR, while setting personal records in the mile and the 3,000-meter run.

Johnson finished 21st in the women’s 5,000-meter run at the Stanford Invitational last season, but she will be competing in the women’s 3K steeplechase this time around.

“It was nice winning my first steeplechase of the season,” Johnson said. “It helps going into the next race, just having a little confidence.”

Confidence did not stop at the steeplechase, though, as senior sprinter Derrick Morgan ran a personal record of 46.96 seconds in the men’s 400-meter dash. His time was almost an entire second faster than his previous record of 47.68.

“I’m not the biggest fan of indoors,” said Morgan, who finished 13th in the Big Ten

STANFORD INVITATIONAL Friday 9 a.m. - 10:38 p.m.

Saturday 9 a.m. - 5:40 p.m.

400-meter dash in March. “All of the tracks are 400 meters in outdoors, so you know what you’re getting yourself into.

There aren’t any 200-meter or 300-meter tracks.”

Morgan heads a sprinting team that struggled throughout the indoor season, but with several top-five finishes last weekend, the sprinters are looking to improve.

“We’re a pretty young sprinting team, and better times come with more experience,” Morgan said. “I think we’ll be fine. We’re just finding our place, especially the younger guys.”

The Hoosiers enter the invitational looking for improvement, a more intense, yet similar approach to how they entered the indoor season.

“This is just a regular stop for us, but we want to leave with better times and show improvement as a team,” Helmer said.

After being on the road for the past five matches, the IU women’s tennis team returns home to play two matches this weekend. This past weekend the Hoosiers were defeated 6-1 by Ohio State and 4-3 by Penn State.

No. 43 IU will play against No. 37 Michigan State and No. 12 Michigan Saturday and Sunday at the IU Tennis Center.

IU will play Michigan State at 11 a.m. Saturday and Michigan at 10:30 a.m.

Sunday.

Having prepared on the outdoor courts for the first time in a while, IU has been anticipating outdoor matches this weekend.

“We haven’t been preparing any differently than we usually do,” IU Coach Lin Loring said. “We’ve been practicing outside because with the nice weather, we think we’ll be playing outside this weekend. We haven’t played outside in a while because of traveling and the weather, so we’ve been making sure to practice outdoors these past few days.”

IU has not played against either Michigan State or Michigan in a match this year, but the Hoosiers have played the teams in the past and are very familiar with their strategies.

“We know what lineup both teams are going to play, and we’ve played those girls

IU (11-6) vs. Michigan State (16-3) 11 a.m. Saturday, IU Tennis Center vs. Michigan (15-3) 10:30 a.m. Sunday, IU Tennis Center before,” Loring said. “We know we can win both if we play really well, but we’re definitely going in as the underdog, so we need to prepare for that.”

IU has beaten Michigan State the past three seasons: 6-1 in 2014, 7-0 in 2013 and 6-1 in 2012.

“I think the match with Michigan State will be a good one,” Loring said. “We’ll be pretty evenly matched, but they’ll hit the ball harder than we would, so that will be a challenge.”

Although the Hoosiers have a winning streak against the Spartans, both teams are coming into this match with recent losses. Michigan State lost this past weekend 5-2 to No. 27 Northwestern.

IU does not have the same historical advantage against the Wolverines with only one win in the past three years against Michigan. The Wolverines are currently on a nine-match win streak.

With a challenging weekend coming up, Loring said the team is happy to finally be playing in Bloomington.

“We’re just really excited to be playing at home,” she said.

Hoosiers set to host Hawkeyes, Huskers

By Danny White danswhit@indiana.edu

IU will host two Big Ten opponents this weekend in No. 73 Nebraska and No. 68 Iowa.

After beating Wisconsin 5-2 and getting trampled by Minnesota 4-0 last weekend, the Hoosiers (12-8) will return home to face two more Big Ten opponents.

“I think it’s always nice to be at the court that you practice on most days and hopefully have a good crowd out there that can help us during our matches against Nebraska and Iowa,” IU Coach Jeremy Wurtzman said. “Teams are getting better and better and get a lot of time on the courts that we are playing at, so I wouldn’t say it makes a huge difference.”

The Hoosiers will play their matches outside this weekend, barring weather concerns.

“There are no factors,” Wurtzman said. “We might play in, we might play out, whatever the weather does, we’ll do what it says.”

If the weather does not comply, the Hoosiers will move to their usual home, the IU Tennis Center.

The Hoosiers are more concerned with factors they can control, like preparing for Nebraska and Iowa.

“I think we are very similar teams, both with Nebraska and Iowa,” Wurtzman said. “They are going to be very equal matches and probably won’t be much difference between us and Nebraska or Iowa. I think it’s great for our team to get

IU (12-8) vs. Nebraska (9-7) 2 p.m. Friday, IU Men’s Tennis Center vs. Iowa (10-5) 2 p.m. Sunday, IU Men’s Tennis Center these opportunities to get out there and play good tennis.”

The No. 44 Hoosiers are 5-2 at home this season and will play six of their eight remaining matches in Bloomington.

“It definitely helps when you’re playing at home,” Wurtzman said. “But I don’t think it plays as huge of a role as it might be in other sports because there are so many matches going on at once.”

IU faces Nebraska (9-7) at 2 p.m. Friday at the IU Men’s Tennis Center. The Cornhuskers are 2-2 in the Big Ten this year and are coming off of a 4-0 defeat of Michigan at home.

“Nebraska is talented in a lot of spots,” Wurtzman said.

“They play really good tennis so we’re going to be able to have our best effort out there and compete very hard because I think their skills — all throughout — the lineup is very tough.”

The Hoosiers shift their attention to Iowa (10-5), who they will play at 2 p.m. Sunday. Iowa is 3-3 on the road this year, 2-2 in the Big Ten and is coming off a 4-3 home loss against Michigan State on Sunday.

“They have had a great year,” Wurtzman said. “They have beaten some good teams and they play very good tennis as well.”

EDITORIAL BOARD

The poor gay werewolf of Netflix It’s been less than a month since “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” took to Netflix and dazzled audiences.

If you haven’t yet watched this quick, kaleidoscopic 13-episode journey, then you better have a good excuse, and that excuse better be that you’re going to watch it the moment this semester ends.

Whether or not you’ve seen it yet or if you’ve read anything about the show, you’ve probably heard that the role of representation on the show has been a site of discussion, especially the treatment of Asians and Native Americans.

However, many have agreed creators Tina Fey and Robert Carlock hit the glossy nail on the head when conceiving Titus Andromedon played by Tituss Burgess.

We don’t get to see a lot of good representations of black men in television, and we see even fewer queer men. The fact that Titus is both black and queer is as common as seeing a werewolf on TV. For me, the representational success of Titus goes beyond the intersection of race and sexual orientation.

A poor queer character in a comedy is far more rare than any television lycanthrope.

Titus is broke. He lives in a perpetual struggle to pay rent by working odd and often undignified jobs. You could say his bank account has six digits but only if those digits are 0002.00.

The reason why Titus adopts Kimmy (Ellie Kemper) as his new apartment mate in the first place is because he needed help with rent or else risk being kicked to the streets by their sympathetic landlady, Lillian (Carol Kane).

As you speed through the show, you are truly bingewatching exposure to the all to real world of queer impoverishment.

The spunky comedy doesn’t hit you with statistics, but I will. Twenty percent

of LGBT people living alone make less than $12,000 annually. Transgender people have higher rates of education than the average person but are still four times more likely to make less than $10,000 annually.

Most television shows resist featuring queer characters who aren’t financially comfortable.

But then let’s compare that to all of the financially comfortable queer characters seen in “Will and Grace,” “Modern Family,” “The L Word,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Scandal,” “The Good Wife,” “How to Get Away with Murder,” “Empire,” “Penny Dreadful,” “Looking,” “House of Cards,” “Queer as Folk,” “The Fosters,” “Girls,” “American Horror Story,” and the list goes on.

But I have a word count to obey. Even in the world of “Game of Thrones,” queerness as an identity seems exclusive to the well-to-do of Westeros.

“Orange is the New Black” is among the mighty few in which LGBT characters and financial straights overlap.

What this tells me is Netflix is aware that its young, binge-watching viewers are thirsting for more comprehensive representations of queer characters, including bringing awareness to the fact that not all queer people in the world are the doctor, lawyer, executive, politician yuppies we see on TV. These Netflix characters also defy tokenism, which makes the representation more significant. Titus is fiscally poor but also ambitious because of the hunger for international attention he is agonizingly denied. gmleeds@indiana.edu

KARL’S KORNER

Swiping right Last weekend a few of my friends and I were fooling around on Tinder because that’s what people do these days when they’re bored.

We were using my friend Allie’s phone and swiped right on every single profile just for kicks and giggles.

She got a ton of matches, more than 200 in the span of a day. I happen to have a knack for witty conversation, so I took to chatting with a few of her matches. My favorite pickup line is “I want to paint you green and spank you like a disobedient avocado.”

We asked a guy named Frank, “Do you like wieners? Because I’d sure like to use some CONDOMents on yours.”

It’s all fun and games — guys seemed as though they weren’t looking to actually meet up or anything. But then you get that one guy who openly gives you his cellphone number and home address.

He might as well throw in his Social Security number — because why the hell not?

The biggest mistake one can make on Tinder is actually meeting the complete stranger they’re messaging. What if he’s a knife-collecting psychopath living with his mother?

Once we messed around with all our matches, it was time to go back to the drawing board. We kept swiping right in approval, even if the guy was wearing an eye patch while holding two cats.

But then the unexpected happened. The screen flashed with “You’re out of likes. Get more likes in: 23:59:55.” It felt like playing those free games on your iPhone from the App Store that don’t allow you to get past level five.

The Tinder game could be played no more. It might be surprising a girl is writing this column. But there’s extreme stigmatization of guys who

Battle over Bergdahl WE SAY: Up to life in prison feels like overkill Though Middle Eastern involvement is a frequent topic of debate in today’s mainstream culture, it is somewhat seldom we see the faces of the men and women who have taken up arms.

This past year, Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl became a household name overnight as he was traded out of five years of Taliban captivity in exchange for five members of said group.

Bergdahl’s name has resurfaced in the media once more, as he has finally been charged with desertion and misbehaving before the enemy after almost 10 months of behind-the-scenes debate. The Editorial Board believes this decision warrants a closer look, as the political forces surrounding it have made Bergdahl a statement for public viewing.

Though most Americans seemed to agree Bergdahl should be returned to the United States, significant controversy surrounded both the White House’s chosen method of operation and Bergdahl’s original motives behind leaving base.

Following Bergdahl’s initial release from Taliban custody, House Speaker John Boehner said “we all wanted to

bring” Bergdahl home, but that President Obama should be criticized for not securing guarantees that the released Taliban members would not resume militant activity.

Questions surrounding Bergdahl’s actions still remain, and Army officials are still tight-lipped as to how and why the decision to bring Bergdahl to face a preliminary Article 32 hearing was reached.

Many of Bergdahl’s comrades have expressed surprise upon learning of his being charged; after such a long period of silent limbo, they seem shocked to have heard a conclusion.

Bergdahl’s attorneys are preparing for a highly emotional and political battle should the initial hearing convict Bergdahl of either charge.

A serious portion of the sergeant’s life is at stake; in addition to the five years he spent as a prisoner of war, Bergdahl could be charged with up to life in prison following a conviction for misbehaving before the enemy.

Therefore, his attorneys had begun to fight this battle before it even started by releasing a letter this past March requesting leniency for Bergdahl due to his time as a Taliban cap-

tive. This letter was accompanied by a statement from Bergdahl describing his experiences as a prisoner of war, when chained to a bed, spread eagle, blindfolded.

The lengthy period of silence between Bergdahl’s rescue and the announcement of his charges has piqued the Board’s interest, as it appears to hint at the ongoing political battleground that exists within the military itself.

Undoubtedly, public perception is key, and Bergdahl’s actions could be used as a model for unacceptable behavior.

In this regard, those involved in the argument for Bergdahl’s being charged likely take no experience he could’ve gone through as an excuse for leniency.

Although the seriousness of military court’s structuring is a mystery to many, Bergdahl’s situation will most certainly make the decision of his initial hearing a widely debated public spectacle.

We just hope that America is still able to consider the seriousness of what Bergdahl has already experienced, whatever the outcome might be.

THOMPSON’S TWO CENTS always swipe right just to get it in at 2 a.m. every weekend.

That’s not always the case.

For our generation, Tinder is a game, as is every other dating site in existence.

For example, one of my friends received emails on April Fools’ Day from Christian Mingle, Amish Dating and FarmersOnly. These websites, albeit serious to adults, are nothing but mere jokes to millennials.

The reality is we are never going to meet our soul mates on a creepy website with the username cowgirl38943.

Even though we’re not the best at holding conversations face-to-face, we can’t seriously hold a conversation virtually with someone on SinglesWithFoodAllergies.com.

“You’re allergic to gluten? So am I! Let’s get married!”

Life doesn’t work that way.

Also, we’re a stingy generation. We like free food, specifically Chipotle, and are always down for $2 Tuesday at KOK. We’re not about to start paying to swipe right on Tinder.

Ironically, adults have to pay twice as much to use Tinder Plus than people younger than 30. This is prejudiced against adults and their willingness to pay to find a partner.

It’s sad really. People think they’ll find a companion in a sea full of “We can’t tell our kids we met on Tinder” pickup lines.

Love has been put on the back burner for many individuals in their 20s. This is the time to be free and swipe right for fun, not for the future. jlkarl@indiana.edu

What the GOP doesn’t get about foreign policy Just hours before the Cuban embargo was to be put in place, President John F. Kennedy asked his press secretary to go out and buy him as many Upman Cuban Cigars as he could.

When he returned, he had 1,200, and Kennedy levied the sanction shortly after.

It took us more than 50 years to realize policies of isolation and manipulation aren’t all that effective, and even today, half of our elected officials seem to be stubbornly attached to the old way of doing things.

It’s the reason we are having the same conversation again today. The Iran nuclear talks had set an arbitrary deadline for a preliminary deal to be put in place, but the United States and Iran have now extended the talks two additional days to try to reach an agreement.

Though the extension of

the deadline was criticized

by Republicans — many of whom were critics of the deadline itself — it’s important to note this deadline was never intended to be set in stone. Rather, it was simply a tool to appease skittish Republicans threatening additional sanctions and give negotiators time to fine-tune details before the real June 30 deadline.

If progress has really been made and there really is a chance for a deal, the U.S. has a responsibility to ourselves and the rest of the world to stay there — regardless of what political pressure it might bring.

But unfortunately, Republicans — and some Democrats — don’t seem to get this message.

Since the beginning, they have been calling the talks dead on arrival and criticizing the Obama

administration’s every move by threatening additional sanctions and even sending a letter to Iran. They also invited a foreign leader to criticize the administration about the ordeal.

Then, ignoring the fact that domestic political turmoil about these talks only weakens the bargaining power of the U.S., they call President Obama a bad negotiator.

The likes of Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., who led the charge to send a letter to Iran signed by 46 other Republicans, are the ones undermining these negotiations — not Iran and not the Obama administration.

Not only does freshman Cotton appear to be out of his league working on the national stage, he and his party have consistently failed to see the danger in infusing domestic politics in foreign affairs.

Jared Thompson is a junior in public management.

I must stress to these lawmakers that these talks are not happening in a vacuum.

Iran is putting a lot of political capital on the line to even come to the table, and if the talks fail, Iran’s leaders will need to save face — likely by blaming the U.S. and taking a shift toward further extremism.

If we are going to have a chance at making real progress with Iran, it’s now. Republicans have to stop meddling in the affair to score some cheap political points and realize they have a responsibility to govern, not just to win elections. thompjak@indiana.edu

A new show, “Ugly Lies The Bone”, is playing at Bloomington Playwrights Project from April 3 to April 18.

Local play takes on New York

By Kelly Obbie kobbie@indiana.edu

Before “Ugly Lies the Bone” heads to New York City this fall, it will first pass through Bloomington audiences.

“Ugly Lies the Bone,” written by New York-based playwright Lindsey Ferrentino, focuses on coping with the mental wounds of war through virtual reality, according to a Bloomington Playwrights Project press release.

The show was developed at the O’Neill National Playwrights Conference, Florida Studio Theater, GPTC and Premiere Stages.

In the story, war veterans “can walk through the snow and have snowball fights with penguins” using a device similar to the Oculus Rift glasses, said Chad Rabinovitz, BPP’s producing artistic director.

“It’s designed to distract their senses so that they forget about the pain,” Rabinovitz said.

“Ugly Lies the Bone” centers on Jess, played by Christianna Nelson. Nelson has also performed offBroadway and in classic and modern plays, according to a BPP press release. “(It’s) beautifully written,” she said. “One of the most beautiful plays I’ve ever read.”

In the play, Jess has just returned from war burned and broken. Finding her old world in turmoil, she must, as Rabinovitz said, “readapt to the life that she left behind.”

Although the play

In “Ugly Lies The Bone” actress Christianna Nelson plays Jess, a wounded war veteran.

incorporates new technology and virtual reality, Rabinovitz said he wouldn’t consider it to be science fiction.

“The play is based on that research and that new method of helping to cure severely wounded war vets ... It’s very much not science fiction. It’s very much a reality,” Rabinovitz said. “By the time she’s come back, her whole world is changed, and she’s physically changed, and as a war veteran that’s not uncommon.”

Despite the play’s depiction of Jess’ struggles, Nelson said Jess still retains her humor.

“She is independent and strong, she’s struggling a lot and is trying to make the best of a bad situation,”

she said.

Nelson also said Jess’ struggles are not unlike real situations, such as interacting with her boyfriend and her sister.

The play is directed by David Anspaugh, an Emmy Award-winning producer and IU grad. He is also the director of the film “Hoosiers,” according to the release.

“David is one of the loveliest people in Bloomington,” Rabinovitz said. “He’s clearly a very gifted director, and it’s been a treat to be able to watch him adapt those film skills to stage.”

Nelson said her experience working with Anspaugh has been positive.

“In our 35-year history, I

UGLY LIES THE BONE Tickets $10-20 7:30 p.m. April 3-4, 9-11, BPP think this will be the mostproduced BPP show across the country,” Rabinovitz said. “Everyone’s gonna do this show soon, but it will have started here.”

The play will be shown at 7:30 p.m. April 3-4, 9-11 and 16-18 in Bloomington Playwrights Project theater at 107 W. Ninth St., according to the release.

To purchase tickets, call 812-323-3020 or go to the Buskirk-Chumley Theater at 114 E. Kirkwood Ave. Tickets can also be purchased at the door and online.

Senior David-Gordon Johnson knew he wanted to put on “The Last Five Years” for his Theatre Department Honors Thesis after hearing the music for the first time his sophomore year.

He said the experience would allow him the opportunity to challenge himself as an actor.

“It’s a really, really wonderful show,” Gordon-Johnson said. “A large part of it was that I know with the background I have, no one in their right mind would cast me as Jamie.”

At 8 p.m. Friday in the Studio Theatre located on the second floor of the Lee Norvelle Theatre and Drama Center, Gordon-Johnson will join senior Claire Drews for the premier of “The Last Five Years,” an independent project Gordon-Johnson put together in pursuit of his honors notation for the Department of Theatre and Drama.

The musical tells the story of one couple’s five-year relationship. Jamie, the husband played by Gordon-Johnson, tells the story in sequential order from the day they met until the day they break up while Cathy, the wife played

by Drews, tells the story backward.

Gordon-Johnson said he wanted the opportunity to showcase what he has learned from his degree from the Jacobs School of Music and from the Department of Theatre and Drama.

“I’m doing a theatre degree and voice degree, but unless you’re a musical theatre major, there are not a lot of opportunities to do the musicals here,” GordonJohnson said. “I wanted to do a project that would be a capstone for both degrees.”

Though Gordon-Johnson looks forward to singing in the show, he said he found it especially challenging because of his training in classical voice. He said the show is very pop, rock and funk influenced.

“It’s all belting and very contemporary musical theater style,” Gordon-Johnson said. “For me, that’s a 180 for most of the training I’ve gotten.”

Almost a year ago, Gordon-Johnson asked current

senior Megan Gray to direct the musical and Drews to be his acting partner. GordonJohnson said it wasn’t hard to select who he wanted to work with, but he understood it would be a challenging play to put together because of the size and talent needed for the roles.

“It’s one of those shows where you have to have two people who you know can do it,” Gordon-Johnson said.

“You can’t just put it on your season and hope that the right people will show up.

You have to know that you got somebody to do it and do it right.”

Gordon-Johnson said their musical director was able to pull some really great instrumentalists from the Jacobs School of Music to accompany the musical.

“It’s six people, but it sounds like so much more,” Gordon-Johnson said.

Although this is an independent project, Gray said she is grateful for all the help the Department of Theatre and Drama advisers.

“We’re definitely pulling a lot of the weight with the project, but we’re still students,” Gray said. “We’re still learning, so we’ve taken every piece of help that we can get along the way.”

Drews said she is both excited and nervous for opening night.

“We’ve run it so many times,” Drews said. “Even thought it’s been such a short process, you can only do something so many times before you’re ready to share it with people.”

Gordon-Johnson said his adviser for the project will come to the show and afterward meet with him to discuss how the overall process went. He said he hopes it will get approved, but to him this project is so much more than an additional thing to put on his résumé.

“The whole point of these honors college thesis projects as far as I see it, is not that this is the be all and end-all of what you’re doing,” Gordon-Johnson said. “It’s a chance to work on something in-depth, and you might not get the chance to otherwise.”

Another Round takes the stage at BCT

By Rachel Goodman @rachela_goodman rachgood@umail.iu.edu

On the quaint and intimate stage at BuskirkChumley Theater, IU’s only male a cappella group, Another Round, performed Thursday night.

Another Round was originally named Straight No Chaser. After a YouTube video went viral in 2008, the original members of Straight No Chaser signed with Atlantic Records. To keep the professional and collegiate groups separate, the oncampus group changed its name, according to anotherroundiu.com.

The group rehearses four to five times a week and they have two major performances a year — one in the winter and one in the spring.

“Another Round was a big reason why I came to IU,” said Jake Forrestal, the current music director of the group.

Growing from a timid freshman to a sophomore arranger of music for the group, Forrestal holds many jobs such as promoting con-

certs, managing the music and running the group.

“It’s a crazy job sometimes, but it’s very rewarding,” Forrestal said. “My favorite part has always been singing for people. It’s something that I never take for granted. I love putting smiles on people’s faces.”

After starting with the national anthem, the group sang a classic by the Backstreet Boys called “As Long As You Love Me.” Following this song, they each gave their own introduction.

One member of the group shared that he was wearing a woman’s shirt that he picked up from the dry cleaners that day, and the crowd laughed.

Along with the music director, the seniors of the group are natural leaders, including Jonny Trubshaw, a former music director himself, Forrestal said.

“One of my favorite parts is seeing how the group changes every year,” Trubshaw said.

With new guys coming in every year and older ones graduating, there is a different dynamic each year, but the same overall feel that

Another Round embodies, Trubshaw said.

He said he likes to see how the new members affect the group and how the group changes them as well.

He said he enjoys the close comradery with the guys from year to year.

“It’s been a great source of a lot of great friendships,” Trubshaw said.

The guys in the group go out together, play video games and even throw parties.

“It’s almost like a mini fraternity that just happens to sing and travel around,” Trubshaw said.

Trubshaw said one of his favorite memories was when the group flew to Colorado for a weekend to sing at a casino. It was the first performance for the freshmen in the group, and Trubshaw enjoyed this show the most.

Trubshaw will be going to Nashville, Tenn., next year to pursue singing and songwriting, according to the performance program.

Trubshaw said he’ll miss the guys, the rehearsals and the performances the most.

The rehearsals were a good

time in the day to decompress and be with friends, Trubshaw said.

“It’s a very unique performance experience doing a cappella,” Trubshaw said.

He has performed in bands with instruments before, but he said that a cappella is a different challenge using just the voice.

Thursday’s show included hits such as “Follow Me”

by Uncle Kracker and “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” from “The Lion King.” Before the song, they made animal noises into their mics and danced with hand motions that made the audience laugh.

Sophomore Clara Whetstine attended the show.

“They came to promote (the show) at my sorority. I heard about it through there but I’ve always loved a cappella,” Whetstine said.

As for Forrestal, he will be back with the group again next year, and they will also be traveling to Colorado once again.

“I’m really looking forward to continuing to learn and progress with the group,” Forrestal said.

IU looks to improve in Big Ten

By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94

The Hoosiers have gotten off to a good start this season. With a record of 17-8, including four wins against NCAA Super Regional teams from last season, IU has garnered an RPI ranking of 28 and has been in and out of Baseball America’s top-25 all season.

But this season has been far from perfect for IU. While its 16-4 nonconference record is impressive, IU is just 1-4 in the Big Ten this

season. It is the slowest start to a conference season for IU since 2007, when it also started 1-4.

IU looks to improve upon its 12th-place Big Ten standing this weekend when it plays a three-game series against Michigan (16-12, 2-4), who is tied for ninth in the Big Ten. IU may have to do so without sophomore infielder Austin Cangelosi, who exited in the third inning of IU’s 11-7 win Tuesday at Kentucky with a sprained left ankle. Cangelosi leads the Hoosiers with a .545

IU will start junior Caleb Baragar, sophomore Jake Kelzer and junior Scott Effross in that order against the Wolverines.

Baragar has the lowest ERA of all IU starting pitchers with 0.79 but has yet to acquire a win in his four starts this season. Kelzer is 1-1 this season with a 2.89 ERA but has not won a game since pitching seven scoreless innings March 8 in IU’s 16-1 win against Ball State.

Effross, IU’s Friday night starter at the beginning of the season, has a 4.12 ERA this season, accruing a 2-3 record in seven starts.

IU’s early conference troubles IU has gotten off to its worst start in conference play since 2007 this season, when the Hoosiers finished 8-23 in Big Ten play.

The last time IU started its conference season under .500 through its first five games was in 2010, when the Hoosiers finished 12-12 in Big Ten play.

But since the breakout of IU baseball in 2013 the Hoosiers haven’t started conference play this poorly.

In 2013, IU won its first five conference games as part of its undefeated start to the 2013 season. In 2014, IU started its conference season 4-1 on its way to its second straight Big Ten title.

The Hoosiers received an automatic berth because they won the Big Ten Tournament and even then IU started 3-2 in its first five conference games.

With Indiana Sen. Dan Coats’ announcement last week that he will not be seeking re-election in 2016, the search for a new candidate to fill his seat has begun.

“I am announcing that I will not seek re-election to the United States Senate,” Coats said in a press release March 24. “This was not an easy decision. While I believe I am well-positioned to run a successful campaign for another six-year term, I have concluded that the time has come to pass this demanding job to the next generation of leaders.”

Coats served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1981 until 1989 when he assumed Dan Quayle’s seat in the Senate until 1999. From 2001 until 2005 he served as the U.S. Ambassador to Germany and then returned to the Senate in 2011, the seat from which he will be leaving in 2017.

Already there have been a number of politicians who have expressed interest in campaigning to fill Coats’ soon-to-be-empty seat and still others Hoosiers have been hoping will entertain a bid.

Eric Holcomb, former chairman of the Indiana Republican Party, gathered a group of his supporters March 26 to announce the start of his campaign for the seat.

“The reason why I’m jumping in is because I think we can make a difference in Washington using the same approach that was proven to work here in the state of Indiana,” Holcomb said. “And that’s what I’m going to set sail doing, starting today.”

Holcomb is the only person to officially announce candidacy, while others have released statements of interest. Others still have made no announcements but are possible contenders.

Todd Young, the U.S. Representative for Indiana’s ninth district, has also said he has considered jumping in the ring but will not make an official announcement about his candidacy until he has

time to think about his decision.

“Since (Coats) made his announcement, I’ve received countless emails, voicemails, and text messages from Hoosiers like you, encouraging me to run for that Senate seat,” Young said in a message to his supporters. “Your support has been overwhelming, and I can’t thank you enough for the kind words over the past few days. Running for the U.S. Senate is a big decision, but it is something that Jenny and I are prayerfully considering and working through as a family.”

Other potential Republican candidates who have not yet released statements about their decisions to run include Reps. Jackie Walorski, R-South Bend, Marlin Stutzman, R-Fort Wayne, Todd Rokita, R-Indianapolis, and Susan Brooks, R-Carmel, and Indiana Speaker of the House Brian Bosma.

Marjorie Hershey, a professor of political science at IU and expert in American political parties, elections and campaigns, noted how challenging it can be to move from a seat as a representative to a Senate seat.

“The difficulty of moving from a House to a Senate seat is that House members tend to be known only — at best — to many of the people in their own district,” Hershey said.

“But to be elected statewide, they need to expand their reach to the other 8/9 of the population of Indiana. That’s not easy. It usually requires a lot of money and advertising.”

Many political experts are predicting Indiana’s 2016 senatorial race to be one of the most competitive in the nation.

One of the reasons for this prediction is the hope of many Democratic Hoosiers that former U.S. Senator Evan Bayh, a Democrat, will run for re-election.

Bayh held Coats’ seat until his retirement from Congress in 2010, but he still has significant support throughout Indiana. It is being said that as of now, he is the best chance the Democratic Party has to win Coats’ seat.

Comedian Davis headlines Comedy Attic through weekend

By Carley Lanich clanich@gmail.com | @carleylanich

A siren blares.

“Oh my god, the whole police force is here.”

Building off of his deep Southern drawl and fast thinking, comedian Billy Wayne Davis headlined the Comedy Attic on Thursday night. Without reservation, Davis poked fun at Bloomington’s small, college-town atmosphere.

“Someone tried to rob the bank,” he said.

Straying from his usual routine, Davis readily dove into improvisation.

“You have one firefighter,” Davis said. “Just a guy named Steve. He’s got the longest hose in town.”

Davis has appeared on NBC’s Last Comic Standing, truTV and NFL on Fox. He has also been a guest on comedian Marc Maron’s podcast, “WTF,” and his self-titled debut album was ranked within Paste Magazine’s Top 10 comedy albums of 2012.

Thursday’s show was Davis’ first performance at the Comedy Attic, but that didn’t stop the

comedian from taking on Bloomington.

“You guys are really using all that limestone, aren’t you?” Davis asked. “Can we make the basketball court out of limestone? I tried that and it doesn’t bounce.”

Davis was drawn to Bloomington by the Comedy Attic’s strong reputation among fellow comedians.

“This is cool. Do y’all know you have one of the best comedy clubs in the country?” Davis said. “To make this more accurate, if you could just smell the faintest scent of mothballs. This would be the perfect attic.”

Davis was largely unknown by the audience of about 50 people. 17-yearold Caleb Zogorski researched Davis’ stand-up before the show.

“I think he was largely misjudged at first,” Zogorski said, referencing Davis’ similar background to comedians like Larry the Cable Guy. Davis, who is often typecast as a comedian based solely on his Southern roots, embraces using personal experiences in his set. trips and elderly citizens on Statehouse tours almost didn’t flinch as they walked through the sea of reporters and cameras and lobbyists.

“The whole political controversy has been worth having,” Sanders said. “It has really crystallized where

The audience gets in a laugh as Billy Wayne Davis performs at the Comedy Attic on Thursday. This was his first appearance in Bloomington.

Davis also used his show as a platform to make light of the recent Religious Freedom Restoration Act

controversy. Davis’ criticism of Gov. Mike Pence was met with applause from the audience.

“Everyone knows a gay person, and if you don’t, you do, OK?”

the mainstream is right now for gay and lesbian rights.”

The great service that controversies like this provide, he added, is the opportunity to begin a conversation.

“Indiana has this odd way of backing into doing the right thing,” Sanders said. “It ends up doing the right thing even when it didn’t set out to do that.”

Indiana Senate President

Pro Tempore David Long called the week’s events a calamity, but said the takeaway is that “Religious and individual rights can coexist in harmony.”

Religious leaders — a very visible part of last week’s private bill signing last week — were nowhere to be seen in the Statehouse on Thursday as the clarifications to the new law were discussed. Neither was

Pence.

“We can unequivocally say RFRA cannot be used to discriminate against anyone,” Brian Bosma, Republican House Speaker, said.

“RFRA will not be used for that purpose. It was misinterpreted. We are sorry the misinterpretation hurt so many people.”

Olympic diving legend Greg Louganis, who is gay, spent an hour with

lawmakers before the language was rolled out.

I’m sorry, Bosma recalled telling Louganis, that you perceived this to be something it wasn’t.

At a press conference announcing the new language, Bosma begged the question the nation is asking: Can the damage to Indiana’s reputation be undone?

“That’s yet to be seen,” he said.
