COURTNEY STAPLETON | IDS

Vauhxx Booker talks about his past as an activist in People’s Park on Sept. 4, 2020. Booker reflected on the incident at Lake Monroe on the one year anniversary of the encounter.

Pamela S. Whitten took office as IU’s 19th president and as IU’s first female president July 1. Whitten is replacing IU president Michael McRobbie, who announced plans to retire.

Whitten had been the president of Kennesaw State University since 2018 and previously served as the senior vice president for academic affairs and provost for the University of Georgia. She has also worked in the University of Kansas and Michigan State University medical departments.

She has a Ph.D. in communication studies from Kansas, Master of Arts in communication from the University of Kentucky and a Bachelor of Science in management from Tulane.

Whitten was appointed by the IU Board of Trustees after an extensive search.

Vauhxx Booker reflects on Lake Monroe incident Cause for Where is his case now?

By Kaitlyn Radde kradde@iu.edu | @kaityradde

Vauhxx Booker, a human rights advocate who is Black, went to Lake Monroe to watch the lunar eclipse one year ago on July 4, 2020. Booker and the group he was with took a shortcut to get to the destination, and Sean Purdy claimed they were trespassing on private property.

Booker believed he was on public property but decided to apologize and move forward to avoid escalation, and Purdy gave his group a ride to the site. However, the group allegedly blocked off the beach as more people began to arrive, so Booker and a friend decided to go back and talk to them again.

Booker said the group became aggressive, so he and his friend began to leave. But as they began to walk away, two from the group allegedly ambushed him and dragged him back. Ultimately, some of the men in the videos Booker posted on Facebook pinned him against a tree, physically attacked him and yelled racist slurs at him, Booker said. He alleges the group attempted to lynch him and told people around them to “get a noose,” among other slurs and threats.

Once bystanders had intervened to end the encounter, Booker called 911, which transferred him to the

Department of Natural Resources.

No arrests were made. A few days later, the FBI opened a hate crime investigation into the encounter.

Little information about the investigation has been made public, and the FBI could not be reached for comment. Booker said the FBI has deferred to state prosecutors.

“Given the history of Indiana and the racism that’s still present, federal prosecution would be preferable,” Booker said.

Booker said the events at Lake Monroe were the most traumatic events of his life, and he is living with it and working through it every day.

“For everyone else, this happened a year ago,” Booker said. “For me, it’s everyday.”

Two of the alleged attackers, Sean Purdy and Jerry Cox, Jr., are facing felony charges including criminal confinement, battery and intimidation. They called the allegations a “smear campaign” and allege that Booker was the instigator, which Booker and his attorney have denied.

After all four criminal court judges of Monroe Circuit Court and Monroe County Prosecutor Erika Oliphant recused themselves from the case in July 2020 to avoid conflicts of interest and concerns of bias against the defendants, the Indiana Supreme Court appoint-

ed Johnson Superior Court Judge Lance Hamner to preside over the case. He then appointed Hamilton County Prosecutor Sonia Leerkamp in Aug. 2020.

Now, a year later, the case is still pending due to this process and delays related to the coronavirus.

In Nov. 2020, Hamner said a trial would begin in the spring, but no formal trial has yet been scheduled.

Booker said the criminal justice system is punitive, not restorative, and unequipped to deal with the humanity of individuals. Booker said he was victimized not only by his alleged attackers, but also by the criminal justice system’s response, specifically the Department of Natural Resources.

“They seemed to elevate the importance of property rights above the harm that was done to me,” Booker said.

Booker said he has also experienced victim blaming by some members of the community over the past year, such as searching his background for criminality to explain away his alleged attackers’ behavior. Meanwhile, he said, his alleged attackers' backgrounds weren’t scrutinized.

“It all pointed to what Dr. King often referred to as the stigmata of Blackness, where America demonizes Black people and it justifies our oppression through some kind

of innate criminality,” Booker said.

“The reality is that Black people are human, and that we shouldn’t have to be saintly or even innocent to be afforded justice in America.”

Booker said the way he was treated in the aftermath of the incident exemplifies why so many victims never come forward.

At the same time, other members of the community showed up in support of Booker at a protest July 6, 2020, in response to the encounter. Booker said he was moved by the support.

“But it’s always also disappointing that the wheels of justice have to be greased by political unrest,” he added.

At that protest, Christi Bennett hit two protesters with her car. One of them, Chaz Mottinger, suffered a head injury and was unresponsive at the scene but has since recovered. Bennett, 66, was charged with two counts of criminal recklessness committed with a deadly weapon and two charges of leaving the scene of an accident. As of publication, no trial has been scheduled.

Booker said violence is always shocking, but that to say he was surprised would be to say that he hadn’t been paying attention to reality and history.

“Healing comes from accountability, and accountability is not the same as punishment,” Booker said.

illness of songbirds unknown

By Laura Gerber laurgerb@iu.edu | @lauragerberr

An undetermined bird illness is in 53 Indiana counties, including Monroe County. The Indiana Department of Natural Resources documented that 285 birds have died from the disease since late May, Allisyn Gillet, Indiana state ornithologist, said at DNR media call. Gillet said The actual number of affected birds could be in the thousands, Gillet said.

The Indiana DNR began getting reports of sick and dead songbirds in Monroe County in late May, Gillet said. There are now reports of songbirds dying from unknown causes in Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland and Washington D.C. “I have not seen songbirds die by such large numbers before,” Gillet said.

The sick songbirds have eye discharge, crustiness and swelling.

McRobbie reflects on his 14-year presidency

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @ByLCNorton

Former IU President Michael McRobbie took office July 1, 2007.

Before he was named IU’s 18th president, McRobbie served in multiple roles at IU including Vice President for Research, Vice President for Academic Affairs and interim Provost prior to his selection by IU’s Board of Trustees.

Upon his selection, members of IU’s faculty such as Bart Ng, then-president of the IUPUI Faculty Council, and Rosalie Vermette, then-vice president of the IUPUI Faculty Council, expressed optimism after McRobbie said he looked forward to working with IUPUI in his first news conference as IU’s President-elect.

At the time, IUPUI and IUBloomington had a tense relationship. IU-Bloomington had been named the university’s flagship campus in 2005, and Vermette believed this deflated any notion that the university’s campuses were equal.

Ng and Vermette believed McRobbie had an understanding of IUPUI’s situation, but Ng stressed that he would be judged by his actions rather than his promises.

Others, such as Betsy Henke, then-president of the IU Student Association, expressed disappointment in McRobbie’s selection, citing a lack of response to her requests for a meeting.

“It’s not just a view, it’s the truth.

Then-IU President Michael McRobbie at IU Bloomington's undergraduate commencement ceremony May 8, 2021. McRobbie served as IU's president for 14 years.

He is not involved enough,” Henke told the Indiana Daily Student in 2007.

McRobbie toured IU’s regional campuses and medical centers in the months after being named president-elect. He was surprised at the amount of statewide support IU receives, he told the IDS in 2007.

“I was just really struck by the enormous influence and importance this institution has in the state,” McRobbie said.

While McRobbie’s presidency began July 1, 2007, he was not officially inaugurated until October.

Joined by friends, family, faculty, past presidents and more, McRobbie laid out his vision for the university.

In his inaugural address, McRob-

bie spoke of goals such as upgrading residence halls at IU-Bloomington, increasing cooperation between IU’s campuses, bringing greater educational opportunity to Indiana and increasing graduation rates.

“I accept these challenges with enthusiasm, though I harbor no illusions that they will be easy. I ask every faculty member, staff member, and student, every alumnus and friend of IU, indeed every citizen of Indiana to join me in this pursuit of excellence,” McRobbie said. *** McRobbie served as IU’s president for 14 years, announcing his intention to retire after the conclusion of the 2020-21 school year in August 2020.

His presidency saw the global

financial crisis of 2007-08, the establishment of new schools and academic programs, construction and renovation of university facilities, rising tuition, mold outbreaks in residential halls, the renaming of campus sites, graduate workers calling for an end to IU’s mandatory fees, IU’s bicentennial and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Multiple individuals, such as Gov. Eric Holcomb, Sen. Todd Young R-Ind, IU Distinguished Professor Ellen Ketterson and Mary Sue Coleman, former Association of American Universities president, released statements praising McRobbie upon the announcement of his retirement.

“During President Michael McRobbie's tenure, the state of Indiana has benefited in incalculable ways. From Indiana University's ever-increasing engagement in transformational economic development projects to improving our international standing abroad, Michael's leadership has enhanced the Hoosier state's reputation globally,” Holcomb said.

Others, such as Cole Nelson, a Graduate Workers Coalition activist, were critical of McRobbie’s presidency.

“President McRobbie has made no recognizable effort to promise and secure a living wage for graduate workers or, for that matter, even consider us a priority worth acSEE MCROBBIE, PAGE 5

IU's NIL policy went into effect last week

By Evan Gerike egerike@iu.edu | @EvanGerike

IU released its Name, Image and Likeness policy in a press release June 30, to guide athletes in NIL opportunities following an interim policy being adopted by the NCAA that allows athletes to make money based on their NIL. The policy went into effect July 1.

“Dating back to the creation of the IU Athletics NIL Task Force last August, our department has been laser-focused on being at the forefront when it comes to preparing for and supporting our students' NIL opportunities when this day arrived,” IU athletic director Scott Dolson said in the release.

“Now that it is here, this comprehensive policy is our latest step and provides a roadmap for our students to maximize their opportunities while also protecting their eligibility to compete in intercollegiate athletics.”

Masks optional for vaccinated individuals

ANNA TIPLICK

Freshmen students walk through IU to order Starbucks on Aug. 24. The friend group wore their masks together. IU announced Tuesday that mask wearing will be optional for fully vaccinated individuals on all IU campuses effective immediately.

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @ByLCNorton

IU announced that, effective immediately, mask wearing will be optional on all IU campuses for individuals fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in a press release

Tuesday.

The release stated that the decision came as a result of high vaccination rates and of the reduced incidence of COVID-19, and the rule applies for all IU campuses including IU Bloomington, IUPUI and regional campuses.

“The available COVID-19 vaccines continue to prove their high level of effectiveness in protecting fully vaccinated individuals from contracting the virus, especially protecting them from becoming ill if they do,” Dr. Aaron Carroll, IU’s chief

health officer, said in the release. “Those fully vaccinated are also at lower risk of passing it to others. This, along with the amazing response from our students, faculty and staff in getting vaccinated, makes the time right to change the univer-

sity’s mask policy.”

In the statement, IU asks that individuals who aren’t yet fully vaccinated continue wearing masks on campus.

Masks will continue to be required on public transportation, including campuses buses, regardless of vaccina-

tion status.

According to the CDC’s website, an individual is fully vaccinated two weeks after having received the second dose of a two-dose vaccine, or two weeks after receiving a single-dose vaccine.

Flooding had little impact on Brood X population

By Laura Gerber laurgerb@iu.edu | @lauragerberr

Experts believe that the flooding on June 18 did not significantly impact the Brood X cicada population.

Brood X cicadas spend 17 years underground and about six weeks above ground in the final phase of their life cycle. The cicadas that were going to emerge would have already done so, Keith Clay, Distinguished Professor of Biology Emeritus at IU, said.

Clay said that female cicadas were mostly done mating and laying eggs by the time the flood came. The cicada holes may have even contributed to some flood damage because they allow water to absorb into the soil quickly, Clay said.

“There can be hundreds of holes per square meter,” Clay said. “The ground looks like swiss cheese.”

Clay said he doesn’t think the flooding will affect the next generation of Brood X cicadas either. Female cicadas usually lay their eggs in tree branches, which are high enough to avoid floodwater.

The next generation of cicadas won’t hatch for about another month, but it makes it easier for the young cicadas, or nymphs, to penetrate if the ground is moist. Nymphs must feed

on underground tree roots to survive, Megan Abraham, Indiana state entomologist, said. If the ground is too saturated when the eggs hatch, it may negatively affect the next cicada population size, Abraham said. Some cicadas could still be heard the day after the storm, so there likely won’t be an effect on future generations, Roger Hangarter, IU professor of biology, said in an email.

Hangarter said some branches containing cicada eggs might have been knocked off, but there are plenty of eggs in branches closer to the trees that survived the storm.

“The bottom line is that disturbance of ecosystems due to human activities such as development for buildings, parking lots, along with overuse of pesticides are by far the biggest threat to their

population,” Hangarter said.

Richard Phillips, IU professor of biology, studies the effects of the Brood X cicadas on soil. When cicadas emerge from the ground, they secrete a chemical that acts like glue and keeps the holes in place. The holes that cicadas emerge from allow greenhouse gases to escape, which helps provide the soil with oxygen, according to The Scientist. Phillips said that soil in Bloomington holds water well because it has a lot of clay, making the soil quickly saturated. Some of the water from the flood has covered up the holes from the cicadas.

Phillips said the cicada holes might have contributed to flooding in basements, but they could have helped mitigate the flooding by absorbing water so it doesn’t flood the streets.

IU’s Michael McRobbie presides over final event

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @ByLCNorton

IU President Michael McRobbie presided over his final public event as IU’s president Wednesday, a dedication ceremony for the Teaching, Research and Exhibition Center and the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology.

McRobbie opened the event by thanking those in the audience before mentioning that the improvements for both the TREC and museum are part of the Bicentennial Repair and Rehabilitation Plan, with $62 million of the funding for the entirety of the plan coming from the state of Indiana.

Another source of funding was from billionaire Gayle Cook, McRobbie said.

“The two facilities that we

dedicate today are longtime landmarks that, for some time, have been in need of renovation and restoration, and that is probably a massive understatement,” McRobbie said.

A principal focus of the Museum of Anthropology and Archaeology will be proColombian Native American civilizations of the Midwest, McRobbie said, with multiple artifacts coming from the Angel Mounds State Historical Site in Evansville, Indiana.

Following his opening remarks, McRobbie introduced IU Vice President for Research Fred H. Cate, who took time during his own remarks to praise McRobbie.

“It is so important to remember that while you can have a beautiful orchestra, you need somebody to blow the certain trumpet, to know the direction you’re heading,and

we are all here today to express our gratitude to a man who for 14 years has blown that trumpet,” Cate said.

Other speakers at the event included President and Chief Executive Officer of the Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites Cathryn Ferree, IU Executive Director of University Collections Heather Calloway and IU Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology Executive Director Edward Herrmann.

Prior to the official dedication, McRobbie awarded Cate with the President’s Medal for Excellence. Afterward, Cate presented McRobbie with symbolic keys to both the TREC and the museum.

“These facilities open up a world of possibilities for everyone in the Indiana University community and far beyond,” Cate said.

Sha’Carri Richardson’s suspension brings policies to light

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Sha’Carri Richardson runs and celebrates in the Women’s 100-meter semifinal on day 2 of the 2020 U.S. Olympic Track & Field Team Trials at Hayward Field on June 19, 2021 in Eugene, Oregon. Richardson will not compete in the 100-meter dash at the Olympics due to a suspension from a positive marijuana test last week.

By Garrett Simms gasimms@iu.edu | @Garrett_simms22

Sha’Carri Richardson, a sprinter for Team USA, will miss the Tokyo Olympics after testing positive for marijuana earlier last week.

Richardson became an immediate star and gold medal favorite after winning the women’s 100-meter dash at the U.S track and field trials in Portland Oregon in stunning fashion. Her posi-

tive test now immediately invalidates her time, and takes her out of the Olympic 100-meter women’s race.

Soon after, Richardson spoke about the situation herself, explaining her story, and what prompted her positive test. She had recently found out about the death of her mother from a reporter during an interview and the effect it had on her was to be expected of any person.

“I know what I did, I

know what I’m supposed to do and I still made that decision,” Richardson said. “I’m not making an excuse or looking for empathy in my case. However, being in that position in my life, finding out something like that ... Dealing with the relationship I have with my mother, that definitely was a very heavy topic on me,” Richardson said on the Today show.

Her 30-day suspension was followed by a wave of support and criti-

cism. President Joe Biden even spoke out, saying he’s “proud” of the way she has taken responsibility for her actions, but also pointing out the rules are the rules, but maybe those rules should change.

Biden’s comments on Richardson’s 30-day suspension from the Olympic games shed light on one of the biggest takeaways from this situation. The World Anti-Doping Agency, and the Olympics strict and questionable anti-doping

rules need to be changed immediately.

Their in-competition rules on drugs do not allow the use of any banned substance unless an athlete has an approved therapeutic use exemption.

The use of any listed drug can result in an immediate suspension, including the use of Marijuana which is considered a performance-enhancing drug.

It has long been questioned whether or not weed truly is a perfor-

mance-enhancing drug.

As more research is done, many other professional leagues are concluding that marijuana is not considered one.

The MLB completely removed marijuana from its list of banned substances in 2019, according to NBC sports. The NBA followed this suit by removing marijuana from their list of drugs in random testing, with the NFL no longer suspending players for positive tests.

The restriction as a whole is harsh and misplaced, but it has also been questioned how it is enforced. A lot of comparisons have been made between Sha’Carri and Michael Phelps’ punishments for marijuana use.

In 2009, a picture of Phelps smoking a bong surfaced online, and he even confirmed the picture’s authenticity at the time. The major difference between Richardson and Phelps is the picture surfaced 9 months after the Olympics, and 5 months before the world championships. Because of this, Phelps never actually tested positive.

Even so, it must be asked why Phelps was never tested before the world championships just five months after the incident, and Olympic greats like Flo Jo-Florence Joyner frequently received random drug tests.

The questions that come from this suspension are all valid, and these rules must be made to tailor the life we live today, where 18 states allow recreational marijuana use, including the state Richardson was in.

Richardson was left off of the 4x100 relay team when the rosters for Team USA were announced Tuesday, meaning she will miss the Tokyo Olympics.

IU softball seniors thankful for one final season

By Griffin Healy healygr@iu.edu | @TheGriffinHeal

With two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning on May 16 in College Park, Maryland, Terrapins senior third baseman Sammie Stefan hit a ground ball to IU softball’s senior third baseman Grayson Radcliffe.

As soon as the ball hit senior first baseman Annika Baez’s glove, and IU won the final game of the 2021 season 3-2, the senior class finished their careers wearing the Indiana script.

It took a long time to get there.

On March 12, 2020, IU softball was in Madeira Beach, Florida, playing against the University of

Toledo. During the sixth inning, the Big Ten announced that all spring sports would be canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Everything was up in the air.

“If the seniors were granted an extra year of eligibility and had the opportunity to get back, what would you do,” head coach Shonda Stanton asked the seniors in a meeting with the team after the sudden news broke.

Players across the nation were suddenly unsure if their athletic careers had just ended. Some of the league’s players took to Twitter to ask the NCAA for another year of eligibil-

ity, including IU’s senior left fielder Gabbi Jenkins.

“All of us were in very different spots,” senior catcher Bella Norton said.

“I was the only one that was going to leave Bloomington. I had a job lined up, so I had a lot to think about before making a decision.”

On March 30, 2020, the extra year was officially granted by the NCAA. Jenkins, Norton, pitcher Emily Goodin and second baseman Katie Lacefield were given an option to come back for a fifth year.

With Baez, Radcliffe and center fielder Taylor Lambert, the new senior class was up to seven.

“I know personally for me, it’s been a constant

mindset of not taking anything for granted,” Goodin said.

But it wasn’t easy to get everyone back for another year.

Goodin said she’d be back, joining Lacefield and Jenkins. Norton had to decide whether to take the job or return to IU — if they were asked back at all.

Other Big Ten players were not offered a fifth year from their schools.

“We were very fortunate for the coaches who allowed us to take our fifth year, but also the staff that welcomed us,” Jenkins said.

In that fifth year, Jenkins was able to break the program’s career stolen bases record with 96. Good-

in finished her career with 583 strikeouts, ranking her fourth overall in program history.

As the two senior classes merged, they welcomed one more member to the team — Micah Schroeder, a graduate transfer utility player from Dartmouth College.

As she was getting recruited by other Big Ten schools, Schroeder started looking at the academic side of what each school offered. Once she found the Kelley School of Business and saw the program, she knew it was the perfect fit for her.

IU athlete sponsorships we’re dying to see

By Bradley Hohulin bhohulin@iu.edu | @BradleyHohulin

In a unanimous decision, the United States Supreme Court ruled that the NCAA’s cherished tradition of generating millions of dollars in revenue off unpaid studentathletes wasn’t super cool.

Now that they’re eligible to profit from their name, image and likeness, which IU athletes are going to land sponsorships, and from which companies?

It’s time to channel our inner Kelley School of Business undergraduate, spout a bunch of inane corporate jargon and facilitate authentic, synergistic branding, whatever the hell that means.

Women’s basketball senior Grace Berger and football senior Ty Fryfogle: duh This one is low-hanging fruit, but it needs to be said.

While it’s a shame we never got the dream Burger King dual sponsorship with Fryfogle and fellow wide receiver Whop Philyor, adding Berger to the mix opens up even more opportunities for burger restaurant promotions.

Contrary to what a legion of insecure dudes might tell you, not only do plenty of people care about women’s basketball, but several female sharpshooters could make serious bank because of it.

The only thing more deeply golden than the med-

als Berger earned at the 2021 FIBA AmeriCup would be a basket of hot, crispy Ty Fries.

Quarterback Michael Penix Jr.: the Indiana Daily Student This one is totally a joke. I mean, that would be crazy... right?

All the goalies: cyber security Maybe it’s men’s soccer senior Roman Celentano smirking with his arms crossed.

Perhaps it’s water polo senior Mary Askew shaking her head and wagging her finger. Either way, some IU goalkeeper is bound to end up crudely photoshopped in front of a stock image of a laptop.

Bonus points if there’s meaningless binary code scrolling in the background.

Then again, given IU’s often casual relationship with protecting its students’ personal information — 2021’s cap and gown ordeal was almost as spicy as 2020’s GPA leak — maybe this isn’t a match made in Hoosier heaven.

Men’s basketball junior Trayce Jackson-Davis: also the IDS Then again, is there really anything so crazy about promoting independent, awardwinning college journalism?

The canceled season had its benefits — the seniors got even closer with each other.

They were constantly on zoom calls, be it having TED Talk Tuesdays, where each member presented on something they were passionate about outside of softball, or doing workouts on Zoom.

“It definitely did make us closer as a class,” Lacefield said. “To go through something that emotional as a class and to get something ripped away that you love, it brings you together.

Football senior linebackers Marcelino Ball and Bryant Fitzgerald: Plus size men’s clothing IU football has no shortage of ridiculously jacked gentlemen who could easily represent a clothing brand for large individuals, but Ball and Fitzgerald hold the distinction of playing a position dubbed the “Husky.”

Of all the dog breeds IU could have picked to describe its half-safety, half-linebacker hybrids, it chose the one that shares a name with big and tall dress shirts.

Whether you’re a particularly broad-shouldered man going to the mall or an opposing running back trying to squeeze through an opening in IU’s defense, one thing’s for sure — you’ll always find guys like Ball and Fitzgerald waiting in the Gap.

The NCAA Division I Council approved the ability for athletes to profit off of their name, image and likeness on July 1, ushering in a new era of monetization and player rights in collegiate athletics.

IU athletes were quick to strike endorsement deals with their new rights.

Just a few hours into July 1, IU men’s basketball redshirt senior guard Parker Stewart and football redshirt junior wide receiver Miles Marshall posted advertisements for consumer goods and food delivery service GoPuff on their Twitter accounts.

All athletes on Opendorse, a platform that specializes in marketing and endorsements for athletes, are eligible for a GoPuff sponsorship.

IU athletics partnered with Opendorse Ready last August to help athletes prepare for future NIL legalization.

Through Opendorse, athletes can be contacted and paid for anything from sponsored Instagram and TikTok posts to podcast appearances. On the website, athletes can set a minimum price for a deal or which types of deals they would like to make.

For example, redshirt junior quarterback Michael Penix Jr. charges a minimum of $200 per deal on Opendorse, while deals with men’s basketball senior point guard Rob Phinisee start at $5.

As of July 5, 31 IU athletes joined the Barstool Athletics program, run by popular online media company Barstool Sports.

Among the IU players to sign with the company are football junior long snap-

per Sean Wracher, men’s soccer redshirt junior forward Ryan Wittenbrink and women’s basketball junior guard Grace Waggoner.

Other IU athletes to make NIL related moves include men’s basketball sophomore point guard Khristian Lander partnering with Yoke, a company that allows fans to play video games with athletes and sophomore guard Anthony Leal hosting a basketball camp for kids later this summer.

While the ability for collegiate athletes to capitalize on the NIL did not go into effect until July 1, the decision was seen as a long time coming.

The State of California passed SB 206, also known as the Fair Pay to Play Act, in September 2019, which paved the way for NIL legislation across the nation and its new legality at the NCAA level.

IU athletics has been preparing for NIL since last year, and is ready to face the new world of collegiate athletics with NIL now a reality.

“I think the young men and women who represent Indiana will have the opportunity to be at the forefront of this legislation and will benefit greatly. Our administration deserves a lot of credit for being forward thinking and positioning themselves with companies like Opendorse and Altius Sports Partners as our industry has changed forever,” IU men’s basketball head coach Mike Woodson said in a statement posted to his Twitter account.

“With the strength of our fans, our social media following and the unquestioned loyalty of our alumni base this is an exciting time to be a part of something this special,” Woodson said.

The Indiana Animal Disease Diagnostics Laboratory received samples from sick songbirds, but it is unknown when the illness will be identified, Gillet said. So far, the samples tested negative for West Nile virus and avian influenza.

Gillet said the Indiana DNR coordinates with federal, state and nonprofit agencies to manage the songbird illness. This includes the Smithsonian, National Wildlife Health Center and the US Geological Survey.

Individuals who see a sick or dead songbird should submit a sick or dead animal report. The most affected species include the blue jay, American robin, common grackle, starling, northern cardinal and brown-headed cowbird, according to the Indiana DNR. Indiana residents should stop feeding wild birds until the outbreak has ended or more information is available. Feeders, birdbaths or other sources that cause wild birds to congregate should be discontinued, according to the Indiana DNR. The bird illness somewhat resembles microplasma conjunctivitis, a bacterial disease spread from chickens to house finches, Daniel Becker, an IU post-doctorate disease ecologist, said.

Birds with microplasma conjunctivitis have eye lesions, which is similar to the symptoms the songbirds are showing. The disease is associated with large amounts of birds

According to the release, IU’s policy will also restrict athletes from endorsing gambling, alcohol, tobacco, adult entertainment, banned substances or illegal products and services.

All NIL activities must be reported to IU within 10 days of the event.

IU athletes can be contacted by their social media accounts or through Opendorse. crowding around a feeder, leading to the buildup of bacteria on the feeder.

It is also possible that there is a connection between the songbird deaths and Brood X cicadas. When birds consume large amounts of cicadas, they could be exposed to fungus, pesticides or other toxins found in the cicadas, according to the Smithsonian.

“Some of the geographical hotspots for cicada emergence events have also been areas with high concentrations of songbird deaths,” Becker said.

Becker said it is important to note that the disease can not be confirmed until the test results return.

The illness hasn’t been identified as either viral, bacterial or fungal. It is difficult to understand the severity of the disease until the source is known, Brad Bumgardner, Executive Director of the Indiana Audubon Society, said.

Bumgardner said he is most concerned about bird species with low bird rates, like hawks, owls, blackbirds and crows. These species usually have one or two babies per year, so it takes longer for their population to rebound if they are affected by an illness.

The most important way to prevent the spread is taking down bird feeders and other things that cause birds to congregate. Bird food isn’t causing the illness, but birds can more easily spread disease when they are close to each other, Bumgardner said.

“A year ago, we all had to shut down and social distance because of COVID-19,” Bumgardner said. “Now, the birds need to do the same thing.”

of these new schools, academic programs and the construction or renovation of facilities at IU’s campuses.

“All of those represent new opportunities for students who come to IU,” McRobbie said in a May. 25 interview.

“Now, the second thing was providing all those new programs with new or renovated space so they have the facilities to be successful.” *** On March 10, 2020, McRobbie released a statement regarding COVID-19. All in-person classes in the two weeks following spring break were to take place online, with in-person instruction set to resume April 6, 2020. The statement also encouraged students to travel to permanent, off-campus homes if possible.

“It is now necessary to take further urgent, proactive steps to help keep the IU community safe,” the statement read. “These measures will undoubtedly cause inconvenience and disruption, yet the risks of not acting now far outweigh the foreseeable inconvenience and challenges of these actions.”

The pandemic worsened, and McRobbie sent out a second statement March 15, 2020.

Spring break was extended by a week, IU’s campus would close, the Little 500 races were canceled and all classes would move online for the remainder of the spring 2020 semester.

The 2020-21 academic year was described by McRobbie as “like no other at Indiana University” in a December 2020 statement.

Masks were required on campus, mitigation testing was required for students, traditional breaks were replaced with "wellness days" and fans weren’t allowed to attend IU Athletics events.

Classes took place through in-person, online and hybrid formats.

When COVID-19 vaccinations were given emergency use authorizations, IU announced a plan to open a vaccination site on campus. IU's vaccination site, located in Assembly Hall, would become

Michael J. Mirro and Patrick Shoulders of IU’s Board of Trustees defended McRobbie’s legacy in a letter soon after publication of the opinion article.

“IU has been incredibly fortunate to have a gifted president for the past 13 years who has made student success a top IU priority,” Mirro and Shoulders wrote. *** Ten new schools were established during McRobbie’s presidency, including The Media School, the Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture + Design, The Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies and two Schools of Education, one in Bloomington and one at IUPUI. Other projects included renovations at the Indiana Memorial Union, a new residence hall, renovations to Franklin Hall and construction yet to be completed around campus.

On June 30, McRobbie presided over his final public event as IU’s president, where he was joined by Fred H. Cate, IU’s Vice President for Research.

“It is so important to remember that while you can have a beautiful orchestra, you need somebody to blow the certain trumpet, to know the direction you're heading, and we are all here today to express our gratitude to a man who for 14 years has blown that trumpet,” Cate said.

Toward the end of his presidency, a box full of symbolic keys from past dedication ceremonies sat in McRobbie’s office.

“I have an absolutely enormous box of these in my office, which is extremely heavy and very hard to lift, actually,” McRobbie said while holding up the final key at his final ceremony.

IU saw more than 100 new or renovated facilities during McRobbie’s tenure, and the construction is valued at about $2.5 billion, according to the university.

Of his efforts at IU, he said he is most proud of the establishment

Monroe County's primary site in April. McRobbie announced that he had received the first dose of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine in a Jan.17 statement.

"We at IU will continue to do all we can to help ensure the vaccine gets into the arms of members of the IU community, as well as all Hoosiers,” McRobbie said in a press release.

At the end of McRobbie’s presidency, IU is set to return to mostlynormal operations for the fall 2021 semester, which will also serve as the first semester for new IU President Pamela Whitten.

“Our response to the pandemic is a very robust one,” McRobbie said. “I expect she’ll be able to take that over seamlessly and see that through to hopefully a completely normal school semester.” *** IU’s Bicentennial was celebrated in multiple ways, including events on Jan. 20, 2020, a Bicentennial medal program, lectures, the unveiling of Bicentennialthemed artwork and the Bicentennial fundraising campaign.

The Bicentennial Medal program was meant to award individuals who "broadened the reach of Indiana University", according to IU's Bicentennial website, and recipients included Holcomb, Shaun Harper, Don Fischer and the members of Straight No Chaser.

Events on Jan. 20, 2020, included the dedication of the Big Red 200 supercomputer, the first ringing of the Metz Carillon, and the unveiling of Bicentennial-themed artwork at luncheons and dinners hosted on campus by McRobbie.

The Bicentennial Campaign surpassed its fundraising goal of $3 billion, with over 317,000 donors contributing, according to the university.

While the Bicentennial celebrations that took place Jan. 20, 2020, stick out as some of McRobbie’s fondest memories of his presidency, he can’t pick out just one memory from his 14 years that stands out above the rest.

“Frankly, there have been hundreds of memorable moments,” McRobbie said.

Retired IU Professor celebrates legacy of Bob Dylan

By Julianna Wigsmoen juwigsmo@iu.edu

Former IU rock history professor Glenn Gass celebrated Bob Dylan’s 80th birthday with a presentation about his career Tuesday night.

IU Auditorium marketing manager Ryan Sheets said Gass developed a specialized course on Dylan, a famous singer-songwriter, for the Jacobs School of Music. Gass developed the first rock history classes ever offered by a school of music and created a certification program in rock history, according to a press release from the IU Auditorium.

Gass wanted to commemorate Dylan’s recent 80th birthday with a presentation.

Throughout his 60-year

career, Dylan won the Nobel Prize, the Pulitzer Prize, various Grammys and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Gass said.

When Bruce Springsteen inducted Dylan into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1968, he called him a revolutionary.

“The way Elvis freed your body, Bob freed your mind,” Springsteen said.

Gass said people made sense of the world through Dylan’s lyrics, which captured people’s dreams of peace and equality in a post-war and racially divided era.

“Blowin’ in the Wind” was released as a single from Dylan’s second album in 1962. In it, he posed a series of questions such as, “How many roads must a man walk down before he is considered

a man?” and “How many ears must one man have before he can hear people cry?”

It addresses ugly topics in a beautiful way, Gass said.

“In the most soft way, he asks the questions about civil rights, about war,” Gass said.

“He doesn’t give you the answer, he says it’s blowing in

Gass played an excerpt of Dylan’s 2020 hit 17-minute single “Murder Most Foul” and said he thinks everybody should listen to the whole thing because of its importance.

It is a requiem for a generation, Gass said. He finally addresses the JFK assassination and how the tragedy brought the nation together, but then he evokes a sense of nostalgia for what he loved about the 60s, when radios used dials and the Beatles sang about holding your hand and people dreamed of a better world.

Gass said he hopes to hold a second presentation on Dylan because he didn’t want to condense everything into the two-hour presentation.

“You can’t rush Dylan,” Gass said.

the wind, there for us all to take.”

Dylan’s music and lyrics inspired famous artists such as the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix and the Byrds to write songs that provoke deep thought and call for peace and unity, Gass said.

Throughout the presentation, Gass played several Dylan songs from his early career and described how they brought out a sense of idealism in his generation and addressed events such as the Cuban Missile Crisis and riots in Oxford Town.

Dylan stopped writing topical songs when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, Gass said. He said he believes Dylan feared for his own life following the assassination, afterward removing political language from his lyrics.
