Take this phrase: whiz strolls through puzzles. Rearrange the letters in the first two words and subtract one of the S’s to find the name of an IU alumnus famous for puzzles. The answer is Will Shortz, king of crosswords and whiz of wordgames. He’s the nation’s puzzlemaster: he edits New York Times crosswords and is the host on National Public Radio’s Sunday Puzzle, where he poses word games similar to the one above. He also founded the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament. Or, as third year journalism student David Pecar put it, “Will Shortz is a rockstar.” Shortz gave a talk titled “The Art of the Puzzle” Wednesday night at the Whittenberger Auditorium in the Indiana Memorial Union. “Crosswords are objectively good for you,” Pecar told his friend while they waited for the talk to begin. “It’s solid pabulum.” Pabulum is sustenance for the brain. Shortz sold his first puzzle when he was 14 years old. When he started at IU, he continued to focus on puzzles. He developed his own

major. He said he’s the only person in the world with a degree in enigmatology. “I repopularized the word,” Shortz said. “If you google the word ‘enigmatology,’” I am the first entry.” Shortz said he is thankful he came to IU because it allowed him to create his own major. “I convinced them that puzzles were a serious field of academic inquiry,” Shortz said. “IU had no courses on puzzles when I was here. Still don’t in fact — it’s a big gap.” In college, Shortz took courses on anagrams, math puzzles, logic puzzles, magazines puzzles and the psychology of puzzles. He would make a new crossword every

week, take it in to his professor and sit by him as the professor solved and critiqued it. His thesis was on the history of American word puzzles before 1860. Shortz began editing New York Times crossword puzzles in 1993. He receives 75 submissions a week and spends most of his working time responding to puzzle constructors. He gives them feedback explaining what they can do to make the puzzles better, and he reworks the puzzles. On average, he said, about half the clues are his. Constructors of day puzzles receive $300.

Many Uber drivers upset by low ratings from IU passengers By Emily Beck emebeck@indiana.edu

Host David Crabb opens the show during the Moth StorySLAM on Wednesday evening at the Wells-Metz Theatre. The Moth is a not-for-profit organization that produces a national broadcast program, which allows storytellers a chance to publicly share their stories.

Moth’s StorySLAM showcases students’ live storytelling skills Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu @bemcafee24601

As each student stood at the microphone on the stage of the Wells-Metz Theatre, they told stories about choices they have made. Some of these stories were humorous, such as the account of an aspiring tattoo artist. Others were

more serious, such as the story of a student who had to make tough choices after the death of her mother. Each speaker talked for about five minutes during Wednesday’s StorySLAM, presented by the Moth, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the art of storytelling. The Moth hosts live events and a nationally broadcast program called “The Moth Radio Hour,”

which is a series of podcasts that also feature storytelling. The Moth had two-day workshops with 60 students Nov. 2-3. They worked in groups and oneon-one with the instructors to learn about how to craft their stories. Selected participants told their stories based on the “choices” SEE STORYSLAM, PAGE 6

The community of Indiana Uber drivers is not a fan of Bloomington. The town is infamous for low ratings and bad behavior, said Mike Moriarty, a driver from Indianapolis. While he usually only goes to Bloomington to take students back to school from the airport, he said he’s heard countless stories from fellow Uber drivers — college students stealing rides from other users, giving low ratings for no reason and being altogether drunk and rambunctious. “That’s the kind of shenanigans that seem to happen in Bloomington,” he said. “If this keeps up, drivers just won’t go down there.” The main concern, Moriarty said, is the rating. After each ride, both driver and passenger are prompted to rate each other out of five stars. Moriarty said any driver whose rating slips below 4.7 can be deactivated, essentially losing his or her job. He said he has a 4.85 rating. A trip to Bloomington could potentially drop your ratings drastically, he said, because some will give “a perfectly good driver” a low rating just because. Moriarty said a girl told him she only gives four stars unless the service is “exceptional.” Even that rating can hurt a driver’s average, he said. “We as drivers, unless you’re puking in the car or being rude, you get five stars,” he said.

Consistently low ratings for passengers can also result in them being barred from using the app. Moriarty said he’s read many of these complaints and stories via a closed Uber group on Facebook. He usually checks it while waiting to pick up riders at the airport in Indianapolis. Despite these complaints, there is no reported shortage of drivers in Bloomington. Working for Uber is the “perfect” job for a college student, said IU senior Jacob Barton, who has been driving for about six months. He can choose his own hours, drive his own car and make decent money working part-time. He sits at about a 4.8-star average — emails inform him of his average ratings each week — and he said he’s never dropped low enough to lose his job. “I worry about it,” he said. “I would like it to stay up. It hasn’t become an issue, really.” Sophie Babcock, an IU senior who uses Uber consistently for rides, said she always gives her drivers five stars. The ratings affect them more than passengers, she said. “I don’t think any riders take their own ratings that seriously,” she said. “I think it’s weird for Uber to have such high standards (for drivers) ... An A is an A, a B is a B. If they get a B, who cares? They’re still going to pass.” SEE UBER, PAGE 6

Panel meets to discuss cultural norms, issues By Carley Lanich clanich@indiana.edu | @carleylanich

The Reverend Dr. William Barber speaks during the Labor and Civil Rights: Bold Legacies and New Directions discussion Wednesday evening in Presidents Hall. The discussion was part of the IU College of Arts and Sciences Themester initiative that provides faculty, students and community members an opportunity to converse challenging issues.

Lecture breaks down labor By Nyssa Kruse nakruse@indiana.edu | @nyssakruse

The Reverend Dr. William Barber, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in North Carolina and leader of the Moral Mondays movement, said he believes the United States is in the embryonic stage of a third reconstruction. The first reconstruction was after the abolition of slavery. The second was during the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s. Today, he sees a third reconstruction forming not just from movements that address racial issues, but movements that address labor, LGBTQ, immigration and women’s issues. “No one victory will usher in the end of another community and no single setback can frustrate us, we can build a new world,” Barber said. “That’s why I’m here.” Barber joined American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations President Richard Trumka on Wednesday in a conversation moderated by William Morris, a local attorney who advocates for

homeless people’s rights and is commissioner for Bloomington and Monroe County Civil Rights Commissions as a part of this year’s Themester. Themester is a program by the College of Arts and Sciences that creates courses and organizes co-curricular activities on a specific theme. This Themester is titled “@ Work: the nature of labor on a changing planet.” “We wanted several events during Themester to highlight the lost connection between the civil rights and the labor rights which have often been twin movements in history,” said Alex Lichtenstein, cochair for this Themester and associate professor of history. The talk brought together the two movements, but it also brought in the community by having Morris moderate the event, and it brought in students by having the Black Student Union moderate an audience question-andanswer session. Before the question-andanswer session, both leaders spoke about how they see the movements intersecting and how they see the future of the United States when it comes to labor and racial equality. Barber brought up the ne-

cessity of understanding the civil rights movement, labor movement and other movements historically. “Until we have a 50-state movement of labor and civil rights working together, and until we organize in the South and break the back of the Southern strategy and open up a solid South, America will always be restrained and held back from reaching her greatest potential,” Barber said. Trumka emphasized the necessity of uniting all social movements. This is something he has worked to do as AFL-CIO president by bringing non-labor leaders into leadership positions within his organization. Trumka said this way of thinking, that social movements must unite, goes back to the beginnings of the mine workers’ labor movements in the 1890s, which brought together miners regardless of race. “We knew that if we were allowed to be divided for any reason — because of color of our skin, because of the way we spoke, because of the way worshiped or who we loved, that we were weakened, that we would always be able to be beaten one at a time,” Trumka

said. “So we came together.” Barber said that it is also essential to bring young people into social movements, and Trumka said it is important to reshape their organizations to meet the needs of young people who might join. “What I’ve found is when you change the narrative from democrat versus republican to the soul of the country, there’s something about idealism that attracts young people,” Barber said. “...The goal of any movement is to first transform the imagination. What could be, what’s possible. What must be.” Trumka told a story from his childhood growing up in a mining community, wherein his best friend was black. He said he didn’t understand why people treated his best friend differently, and when his father explained racism to him, he decided to become outspoken against prejudice. “I made up my mind at that moment that I was going to fight racism and phobias and discrimination every where I found it at any time,” Trumka said. “I wouldn’t keep my mouth shut when it happened in front of me, that I would have to speak up and speak out.”

Lecture promotes discussion on suicide By Sarah Gardner gardnese@indiana.edu @sarahhhgardner

When School of Public Health academic advisor Cindy Moore lost one of her students to suicide in 2007, she said she could not imagine something like that happening in her family. Then, in 2010, she lost her nephew to suicide. Moore spoke of her experience at a suicide prevention and awareness event organized by Theta Chi on Wednesday night. The event was the fraternity’s main health and safety event for the semester. “I look back at those events and I wish I knew so much more,” Moore said. “After getting through that, I personally decided I could do better work here at IU with helping students.” Moore is now a trainer for safeTALK workshops, which teach groups how to be aware of and help those who may

be suicidal. She is also the chair of the Bloomington Out of Darkness Walk for suicide prevention and awareness, which raises money for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. “This is tough to talk about, and a lot of people don’t think it matters until it happens to someone you’re close to,” said Tyler Kacich, the vice president of health and safety for Theta Chi. “But one of my close friends from high school killed himself this summer, there was a suicide in Zeta Tau Alpha a year or so ago that shook a lot of people, and this is a growing issue on college campuses.” Moore was one of three speakers at the event. Her cousin, Shari Allman, spoke of her own suicide experience. “I’m a success story,” Allman said. “Or a failure story, if you want to look at it that way. I failed to kill myself twice. But if I hadn’t failed, I wouldn’t have ended up with four beautiful children, a

huge family and the friends I surround myself with.” One of the most important things to do was to find someone to talk to, whether that be a friend, a doctor or another trusted source, Allman said. She described suicidal thoughts as being in a dark hole, and it takes a lot of help to get out of the hole. The final speaker at the event talked about how to find that help. Eric Samuels, a doctoral intern at IU Counseling and Psychological Services, spoke about the resources CAPS provides for students as well as strategies for helping students who might be suicidal. It is important to focus on instilling hope instead of being critical, even when asking difficult questions, Samuels said. “You may have to directly ask someone if he’s thinking about killing himself,” Samuels said. “It’s really hard to ask, but it’s essential that you ask that question. Don’t beat around the bush.” Suicide is the second

leading cause of death for college students. This makes it even more important for everyone on campus to look out for each other and keep each other safe, Samuels said. The event also raised money through donations for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. The foundation funds research, educational programs and public policy initiatives for suicide prevention and awareness. “I have no idea what the long-term benefits of having this event will be,” Kacich said. “But if just one person learns from it and knows who to go to and what to do now, then it’s worth it.” All three speakers emphasized the importance of students helping the friends and classmates around them find support and hope. “There is a future,” Allman said. “You might not be able to see it right now. But who knows what kind of impact you can make down the road if you stay here.”

To help ensure safety among all IU students, University administrators and students discussed the cultural differences of international and domestic students. In a small International Student Policy Panel, speakers set out to identify what the ideal student interaction looks like in a discussion Wednesday night in the Indiana Memorial Union’s Georgian Room. The panel brought together four students representing different international organizations on campus, representatives from the IU Police Department and Office of International Services to address the well-being of international students on the IU campus. Qiuyao Wei, a sophomore international student from China, shared her own freshman year experience as part of the panel. Wei was not granted the same ability as domestic students were in the selection process of choosing a roommate while living in the residence halls. “When international students come here from really far away and from their home, they want to feel confident,” Wei said. “They want to feel that they’re noticed, that they’re significant and the fact that the dorms didn’t even do that, it just really makes me feel like they’re not putting much focus on us.” Wei said she felt IU, a university proud of its percentage of international students, had been contradicting itself in such policies, specifically focused on living for freshman students. Malvin Subianto of the Indonesian Student Association, shared a story of a friend who felt grading in one of her writing classes had been biased based on her status as an international student. He also noted the divide between international students and domestic students, expressing a desire to bridge the large gap. “Reality check, the reason why international students are sent is to immerse in the cultural diversity and not to stick with the same people,” Subianto said. Rendy Schrader, director of the Office of International Services, sat on the panel and addressed such concerns. “It’s outrageous that you would experience any kind of discrimination,”

“When international students come here from really far away and from their home, they want to feel conﬁdent. They want to feel that they’re noticed, that they’re signiﬁcant, and the fact that the dorms didn’t even do that, it just really makes me feel like they’re not putting much focus on us.” Qiuyau Wei, sophomore international student

Schrader told the students. She presented two new housing initiatives one setting aside 10 percent of housing across campus for international students, who are often the last to register for housing, and another allowing a new check box option for domestic students to decide if they would like to be placed with an international student as their roommate. Schrader also said one of her pet peeves is international students are given little cross-cultural training. “I think that’s the University’s fault,” Schrader said. “I think that we’re asking international students to come way further in a conversation than we’ve ever either expected or trained Americans to do and we need to be better about that.” IUPD Deputy Chief Doug Johnson also sat on Wednesday evening’s panel to provide information on how the department can work with the international community in the future. “We wanted to introduce the IU police to everybody in the room,” Johnson said. “And let you know that we’re here for all of our students, doesn’t matter if they’re from the United States originally or wherever they come from.” Sophomore John McHugh, who helped organize the event with a new international outreach initiative called Project Pengyou, said the event’s main purpose was to brainstorm ways to build better relationships within the international community. “This project’s goal,” McHugh said. “Is to really bring together Americans who are either interested in learning about others or are interested in traveling abroad with anyone else who is interested in building the bridges necessary to create a better campus.”

CORRECTION In the Wednesday edition of the Indiana Daily Student, a story on the Arts page should have read Joel Washington approached IU President Michael McRobbie to offer to sell him a painting of Rahsaan Roland

Kirk he’d painted five years earlier to hang in the Indiana Memorial Union. It also should have read a painting of Wes Montgomery hangs down the hall. The IDS regrets these errors.

Woman holds home intruder at sword point By Hannah Boone hanboone@indiana.edu @hannah_boone

“Are we both in danger?” she thought. * * *

INDIANAPOLIS — When she held the sword to the intruder and pressed its sharpened point against his gut, she remembered her training. When your opponent shows mercy, you yield. This guy was acting insane. He was wriggling and moaning on the floor. There wasn’t any fight in him. “What the hell is this guy’s deal?” she thought ”Was he yielding? What exactly does yielding mean?” It was a split second decision. He was the one that broke into her house. He whimpered as she pushed the sword just a little bit harder to his skin. * * * Karen Dolley was prepared. At 43, she had trained herself to chase her fears. When she woke on the night of Oct. 8 to the sound of a man’s voice, her preparation would be tested. Karen had been watching season one of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” in her living room on the east side of Indianapolis. Around 11:30 p.m. she slipped under the sheets wearing her softest striped pajamas that her mom bought for her. Moments later, she instinctively rose out of sleep when she heard someone speaking. She tore out of bed, flicked on the light and saw the shadow of a man standing in her dining room. Karen said she knew she had to act first. Bravery didn’t really have anything to do with it. She was trained to think aggressively years ago as a member of the Society for Creative Anachronism, a 17th-century reenactment group centered around medieval combat. She lunged at his head. She hit him over and over in his face, about 10 times. As she recoiled her fists she heard him muffle, “Call the police. Call 911!” Backing up from her opponent, it crossed her mind that someone might be after him.

She corralled him into her guest bedroom and reached into the bedside table for her gun. Wrong drawer. The whole time the man, who she said looked a little like Jesse Pinkman from “Breaking Bad,” wailed to call the police. “That’s in the cards, bro!” she said, striding to the front room to grab the phone. When she came back into the guest bedroom, the man had curled up against the corner behind the bed. “Shh, shut the light off,” he said. Scanning the room, Karen struggled to find anything she could use to protect herself. She spotted the sword. He had knocked it from its resting place on the wall. She unsheathed it, took her stance and squared her shoulders. A million thoughts could have flooded her mind, but Karen was locked in this moment. She could have thought about how the sword had belonged to her former boyfriend, a stalker and an abuser. She could have remembered the time he had used the sword on a person, how it had convinced Karen to end their relationship for good. She could have remembered when she dropped off his stuff at his mother’s house and how she had kept the sword around so he couldn’t hurt someone else with it. The irony of that. Swords like this are used mostly for ninja movies in Hollywood. It’s about two feet long, heavy and black. It has a straight blade with a square guard. Weapon in hand, she dialed with the other. “911, what’s your emergency?” “My name is Karen Dolley ... believe it or not, I have him at sword point.” * * * “Take your hand out of your pocket and put it in

Karen Dolley, 43, defended herself with a sword when an intruder broke into her home Oct. 8 in Indianapolis. Dolley is trained as a member of the Society for Creative Anachronism, which is a 17th-century reenactment group centered around medieval combat.

front of you, or I will run you through,” she told him. She would have done it, too, she said. She put about five pounds of pressure on the sword, enough to make someone feel as though their skin might puncture, as she pressed its tip just above his right kidney. The cops arrived two minutes later. As soon as Karen let them in, she hid in the kitchen. The man, 30-year-old Jacob Wessel of Greenwood, Indiana, was arrested and charged with residential entry, a Level 6 felony. He had forced his way through the back door, high on an unknown substance, under the impression that he was being chased. Wessel had been booked in Marion County Jail in 2006 for possession and dealing of controlled substances. The police eased him into the back of the patrol car. It was 12:17 p.m. The whole encounter had taken less than 30 minutes. Karen took a seat on her couch and stretched out her arms.

Her hands were bruised, but they did not shake. * * * She hadn’t heard him enter that night, which she found strange with her creaky wooden floors. It’s an old house; the French doors Wessel broke through are delicate and antique. A wooden dining room table is now pressed up against those doors, blocking access from the inside and out. The rest of Karen’s home looks lived in. She has played host to more than 20 news crews and reporters since the invasion. They call her the “Naptown Ninja.” Most cover the story like an episode of a sitcom. That’s how Karen would describe it, too. What she doesn’t tell them is that she is still a little shaken. She is still working on turning off the light in the living room. Though she doesn’t expect a crime like this to happen again, she still can’t sleep with her back to the

bedroom door. As she walks around her home, picking cat toys and lint off the floor, Karen grabs several sheets of paper from the top of her cat’s crate. The “kind of creepy” letter in her hand is from a stranger. There are many letters, emails and Facebook messages, most of them from men and all of them criticizing her for how she handled the situation. Maybe little girls aren’t taught to, or even “supposed” to, roughhouse. Karen said that’s why female fights seem wilder, savage even. Her time spent with the society taught her instead how to attack with control. “I don’t want to hear ‘You should have ...,’ or, ‘I would have ...’” she said and added she has been trained to protect and do it a certain way. “Do you want to live in a house where you’ve killed someone?” It doesn’t shock Karen that something like this would happen to her. Cousins and friends have written on her Facebook wall, “Je-

sus, this would happen to you.” Today, Karen shows off her combat skills with the Naptown Roller Girls, a roller derby group of women with names like “Flannery O’Clobber” and “Caca Fuego.” It’s a dangerous sport and one Karen had plenty of reservations about getting involved with, but her experiences have taught her to keep chasing her fears. “A lot of the time women tear each other down,” she said. That’s what she was expecting of the derby, too. But the man-hating, tattooed, edgy “ne’er-do-wells” that Karen had predicted turned out to be most accepting of who she is. “There’s no one type of derby girl,” Karen said. At a Halloween derby event, Karen dresses as the Bride from “Kill Bill.” Complete with yellow jumpsuit, pointed black kitten heels and the sword in tow, Karen takes photos with derby fans, all unaware of the irony in her costume.

Man arrested after breaking into Delta Zeta at Purdue By Taylor Telford ttelford@umail.iu.edu | @ttelford1883

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Less than three weeks after being released from jail, Neil Albee, 44, was arrested for breaking into a Purdue University sorority. It happened on Halloween night, when a Delta Zeta sorority member opened her shower door to find a man staring at her. Purdue University Police Department Capt. Eric Chin said the student described a dark figure, 6’1”, with wavy hair. She told police the man was wearing a navy sweater and had been lurking behind her shower door. The man fled the Delta Zeta premises after she yelled at him and alerted other members to an intruder’s presence. Albee, 44, was arrested an hour and a half later around 11 p.m. Police had found him hiding in the shadows of Zeta Beta Tau fraternity. “Police were on the scene at Delta Zeta in under a minute,” Chin said. “I assume he was hiding somewhere in the vicinity until students called to report him.” Albee had been banned from Purdue property after being reported for indecent exposure in a woman’s residence hall and a campus library in 2012. He pleaded guilty to a felony trespass charge and served 183 days in Tippeca-

noe County Jail — where he has been kept 10 times since 2007. On October 12, Albee was released. On Oct. 31, Albee ignored his ban and snuck into Delta Zeta. It is unclear how he gained entry to the house or how long he was inside before he fled. Albee is currently incarcerated in Tippecanoe County Jail again and is charged with voyeurism and residential entry, with a total bond of $65,000. Delta Zeta sorority members declined to comment on Albee’s intrusion, but a freshman member of the school’s Alpha Gamma Delta sorority, Lauren Hoover, said she thought the incident was baffling. “I’m so surprised that he would have even been able to get in,” Hoover said. “It’s hard to feel safe when someone can just break into a sorority house, especially with the security codes and other measures.” Hoover said there is little awareness of the break-in on campus, besides the text and email alerts sent out by the Purdue police immediately after Albee was reported at Delta Zeta. “I feel like this should be a bigger deal than it’s being treated as,” Hoover said. Considering Albee’s ban from Purdue campus and his history of public indecency there, Hoover said she wished there was a better awareness of his criminal background and the threat he presented.

“I’m so surprised that he would have even been able to get in. It’s hard to feel safe when someone can just break into a sorority house, especially with the security codes and other measures.” Lauren Hoover, Purdue University student

“I feel like there should have been pictures and warnings about him already,” Hoover said. “I’d want to know about this guy and not pass him on the street here and think he’s just another person on campus.” Albee’s break-in is not symptomatic of a large scale safety problem at Purdue, but it demonstrates the threat of a determined individual, Chin said. “Purdue campus, like most college campuses, is like its own city,” Chin said. “We maintain a safe atmosphere, but we are not immune to the threats of crime and danger like any other city.” Safety on campus requires awareness and participation from students and law enforcement alike, Chin explained. “Calling in suspicious activity is important, even if it might appear minor to you,” Chin said. “Technology and alertness can help us look out for each other.”

Start blazing and feel the Bern, Congress It’s about to get lit in the Senate. Democratic candidate and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has submitted a bill in the Senate that would give states the right to choose to legalize marijuana and decriminalize it on a federal level.

This is big move for Sanders to oppose Hillary Clinton’s opposite stance on the issue to possibly win more of the young vote. We here on the Opinion board have to give it to Bernie, it’s a good issue to hash out. Let’s hope he picks Mary Jane as his VP.

EDITORIAL BOARD

ILLUSTRATION BY MORGAN ANDERSON | IDS

Saturating Academic Testing WE SAY: SAT changes don’t change the problem with standardized tests The New York Times reported College Board, the organization in charge of a lot standardized testing for higher education, is revamping the SAT. The biggest changes made are the essay will now be optional. We’re a little iffy about this. Should standardized testing be reviewed here in the United States? Absolutely. Should there even be standardized testing at all? Well, probably not.

In 2012, the Brown Center on Education Policy at Brookings found states now spend as much as $1.7 billion on standardized tests. In a 2014 harvardpolitics. com interview, fifth grade teacher Dawn Neely-Randall said her students now take what amounts to eight hours of tests in a single week and students have started to have break-downs. Neely-Randall said the standardized tests used to determine what middle

school classes students will be sent to takes time away from actual, valuable learning, such as class projects, interactive activities, etc. The problem the Editorial Board sees with most standardized testing is it doesn’t really relate at all to what we learn in school. As much as College Board touts its testing’s relevancy in higher education, it doesn’t even relate to what we learn in college. Education, across the

board, is changing. Students no longer need manual skills that require they get a guildlike education. Students need a holistic approach to education early so they aren’t floored by the amount of work needed at the college level. Something needs to be done about the humanities. Removing the essay from the SAT would be disastrous. In an editorial essay, slate. com reported students are more likely to “buy, borrow

or steal” their essays in college than they are to actually write them. We recognize that standardized tests have their place in the education system. They are valuable in early education, when teachers and schools need to figure out what a student’s strengths and weaknesses are. However, standardized testing at the high school level takes valuable time out of class for teachers to teach

students information they will only use and see once and never use or see again. This isn’t a call to end the SAT or ACT immediately, but we do want it to be more thoroughly reviewed and its place in our educational system to be judged more harshly. Students shouldn’t experience mental breakdowns from standardized tests. If anything, it could at least relate, even a little, to things we’ve actually learned.

AN EMMA DILEMMA

KKK or not, Sen. Coats is still discriminatory

Schools need to be educated in trans rights

He might not be a member of the Ku Klux Klan, but Sen. Dan Coats, R-Ind., is still troubling. The Anonymous “hacktivist” network has promised that its offshoot Operation KKK will release the names and email addresses of known Klan members in a data dump Nov. 5, according to the Inquisitr. In the days preceding the Nov. 5 leak of KKK affiliate email addresses, a Twitter user not affiliated with Anonymous, Amped Attacks, has posted a supposed list of KKK members on pastebin.com. The list includes a number of political figures, including Sen. Coats. There is currently no concrete evidence pointing to his involvement in the KKK. Of course, Sen. Coats has already dismissed the allegation on his personal Twitter account, where he said the idea is just “baseless Internet garbage” and he “deplore(s) all forms of racial discrimination.” However, it’s no secret that racism and other forms of social injustice still exist, whether or not they are violently perpetuated by tall

figures in white robes and pointed hats. Sometimes they take the shape of House of Representative and Senate bills targeted at minorities and marginalized groups. According to govtrack. us, Sen. Coats has voted to pass a number of bills that limit the rights and civil liberties of minorities or restricted the services that helped level the economic playing field. In May 1994, Sen. Coats assented to Senate Bill 1935, which in Sec. 13. read “conferees to the upcoming Senate-House conference ... should totally reject the so-called Racial Justice Act provisions,” a bill passed by the House of Representatives that prevented “racially discriminatory capital sentencing.” Apparently, Sen. Coats accepts the notion that although minorities have been continuously statistically proven to be more likely to be incarcerated and race has a large sway in capital punishment decisions, racial discrimination is not at play in the criminal justice system. He also voted against the Employment Nondis-

crimination Act in 1996. The act would have prohibited “employment discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.” However, the bill was not passed with a vote of 50 nays and 49 yeas, with one abstention. Sexual orientation is still not a protected class in the United States, according to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Coats continued his streak of opposing LGBTQ rights by voting to define marriage as one man and one woman in the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996. He even went so far as to cosponsor a senate bill in the wake of the RFRA riots earlier this year to support discrimination against LGBTQ individuals. The bill actually states that it stands to prohibit the federal government from taking “discriminatory action” against those people who refuse to serve gay people on the basis of their moral or religious beliefs — this is also known as a discriminatory action, senator. So in regards to his views on discrimination, it seems he does support

it, just as long as it’s not against those who are religious. While the allegations that Coats and the other politicians named on that Pastebin list are actual Ku Klux Klan members remain merely allegations, it does prompt us to take a closer look into his views on the issues. Those views can remind us that oppression and discrimination do not always have to be overt hate crimes, they can be present in the policy actions of our representative body. Whatever the intentions of hacker Amped Attacks, it’s imperative we take a look at the real threat and occurrences of discrimination by our politicians. You clearly don’t have to be a member of the KKK or another hate organization to be oppressive, you could just be a member of Congress. meickhof@indiana.edu @maggie_eickhoff

Transgender students have started speaking up at schools across the country, but, as reported by the New York Times, a line seems to be drawn at the bathroom and locker room. Before people get all heated, I think we need to take a big step back and look at the situation more objectively. Even though transgender people are gaining more political and social ground, the idea that biological sex is separate from gender is a concept that many find hard to grasp for a few simple reasons. The first — there’s not a lot of trans education out there right now. Before you point out Caitlyn Jenner or the fact that everyone has access to Google, it really takes people a while to grasp that biological sex and gender do not always correlate. That concept needs more in-depth explaining than a simple Google search can yield. I didn’t fully understand trans bodies until I was a sophomore in college in a gender studies course where the professor first had to tell me what a social construct was and then how to break it down. The second — there’s still a lot of stigma around genitalia. Now, I recognize that people need to feel physically and sexually safe, which is why whipping your clothes off and running down the street is a crime and why it’s polite to turn around in a locker room. You might think your junk is great, but that doesn’t mean the person next to you feels comfortable seeing it. However, we have stigmas around genitalia that

are formed by our understanding of how sex and gender work, which is why the parents of kids push so heavily against allowing transgender people into their proper bathrooms. We don’t seem to understand that if we removed certain cultural thoughts and ideas around sex and the body from our heads, we could very easily allow transgender people into the right bathroom. It wouldn’t just be transgender men and women that benefit. It would help us redefine our parameters of gender and allow spaces to open up that aren’t automatically heteronormative. However, we can’t just place the responsibility for pro-activity and education on the trans community. We need to go back and look at the basic root of the problem — a misunderstanding of what the issue is and a lack of serious education about it. We need to take some action and try to educate ourselves if we are confused. We are at IU; relevant information is not hard to find. Until that happens, I can’t blame school systems for being confused. However, I do hope this limbo state won’t last for long because there are a lot of kids out there who need the help we are still learning to provide. ewenning@indiana.edu @emmawenninger

Hoosiers to begin Big Ten Tournament play today By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@indiana.edu | @ZP_IDS

The Hoosiers won the most conference games in program history this season with first-year IU Coach Amanda Janney. The five conference wins earned them the No. 3 seed in the Big Ten tournament, which they will play host to for the first time since 2008 on Thursday. “Having the home field advantage is so great for our players, and our players’ families,” Janney said. “To be able to play on a comfortable surface that they’re so used to and we’ve obviously done very well at home, so we’re excited about that.” IU (9-9, 5-3) will match up against No. 6 seed Penn State (8-9, 4-4), which it shutout at home 1-0 in mid-October. The win came after IU went on the road and shutout Ohio State, giving freshman goalkeeper Noelle Rother two consecutive shutouts earning the Big Ten Freshman of the Week award. The streaky Hoosiers, who carry four losing streaks of two or more games this season, hope to heat up at the right time this postseason as a Big Ten tournament championship would give them an automatic invitation to the NCAA Tournament. “We’ve talked about it since day one with me that I want to make sure they understand our goals to not only make the Big Ten tournament and do well there, but to also make the NCAA’s,” Janney said. “It’s something we talk about, but we don’t focus on too much because we’re so focused on tomorrow’s game.” Rother has anchored the Hoosiers down the stretch as she was named Second Team Big Ten All-American on Thursday. Along with solid defensive play by fellow Big Ten second-teamer senior defender Sydney Supica,

The Hoosiers dropped their third match in a row to allow the Hawkeyes to take their second conference win of the regular season. “I’m so shocked we played like that,” IU Coach Sherry Dunbar-Kruzan said. “I felt like we’ve made some good improvements, the attitude was great and we’ve talked about doing our job. I thought we were prepared and had a great game plan and knew what Iowa was going to do but it was like a different team showed up when the whistle blowed.” IU started the first set of the night by earning a point, but Iowa quickly took a 9-5 lead. The Hoosiers ended up dropping the first set 25-19. Throughout the beginning of the second set the two teams were back and forth tying up points when finally the Hoosiers took the

lead against the Hawkeyes 10-9. IU fought hard to earn points but Iowa came back to steal the lead away from IU and secure another match point, 25-21. “We can look at the match and learn from it,” senior outside hitter Amelia Anderson said. “We just need to go back to simple volleyball and play the game the way we know how to play it. I think our preparation was good but I don’t know if we executed the game plan. Iowa definitely played with a lot more heart than we did.” The third set was crucial for the Hoosiers. They were given two options: they could either drop the set and secure another loss or fight their way to a crucial win. During that set the Hoosiers fell three points behind Iowa, but points scored by senior middle blocker Awele Nwaeze, junior setter Megan Tallman and Anderson

IU 0, IOWA 3 Match 1 25-19 Match 2 25-21 Match 3 25-20 caught the Hoosiers back up. A service error by IU increased its deficit to four points, 16-12, forcing IU into a timeout during the middle of the set. Although IU scored the next few points, Iowa continued to increase its lead and take the set 2520. “I thought it looked chaotic at times and we don’t see that in practice,” Dunbar-Kruzan said. “It looks stressful and it shouldn’t be stressful it should be their party day. This should be the least stress they have.” The Hoosiers will return to practice Friday to prepare for their next match at 7 p.m. Saturday against Nebraska.

The Nittany Lions pride themselves on solid defensive play but have a bleak offensive attack. Leading scorer junior forward Brook Birosik recorded a hat trick in the season finale against Northwestern, earning her offensive player of the week award in the Big Ten. The Nittany Lions have won six conference tournaments — more than any other team in the Big Ten — since joining in 1992. All of those championships have come under Charlene Morett-Curtiss who has been at the helm for the last 29 years. If IU can get past Penn State and into the semifinals, it will face either No. 2 Michigan or No. 7 Iowa. IU’s top goal scorer

IU (9-9) vs. Penn State (8-9) 5:30 p.m. Thursday IU Field Hockey Complex sophomore Maddie Latino returned to the field against Rutgers after sitting out during the final road stint of the season with a foot injury. Latino showed no signs of rust against the Scarlet Knights as she tallied two assists in the 2-0 win. “Taking those two games off were really smart for me, especially because I think the Big Ten games and tournament are a lot more important,” Latino said. “At the end of the season you have to do what’s best. I would’ve loved to have played, of course, but doing what’s best for my body and best for the team I had to just wait and let it heal.” The first round matchup will take place under the lights at the IU Field Hockey Complex for the first time all season. The Hoosiers have the distinct advantage of watching three games take place before they step on the pitch at 5:30 p.m Thursday.

THE SPORTS S’TORI

IU riding a rollercoaster into its matchup with No. 10 Iowa One week. One week away from the roller coaster ride that has been the IU football season — or more accurately, the lift hill that reached its peak against then-No. 1 Ohio State and has been plummeting ever since. The Big Ten season has left us with the same pitfall in our stomach as a theme park ride without any of the thrill. But there’s something to be said about the grounding effect of a week’s reprieve as we buckle in for the final third of the 2015 schedule. It’s time to come back to IU football with fresh eyes and a clear head, and — as senior quarterback Nate Sudfeld would say — reset expectations to 0-0.

The Hoosiers came off an energizing practice Sunday, in which Sudfeld said he and his teammates were “smokin’ down the field” and which IU Coach Kevin Wilson referred to as one of the best of the year. This seems to attest to the healing properties of the bye week. Though IU entered the bye having just returned its most important injured player, junior running back Jordan Howard, against Michigan State, the time off still offered value to several Hoosiers who have been playing banged up. Wilson also pointed out the value to his young starters, such as freshman cornerback Andre Brown Jr., who are still adjusting to the grueling de-

opportunities to pick up wins of this caliber in a single season. Not only that, but Wilson and his staff had a full two weeks to go back over the close losses to Ohio State and Michigan State and try to correct those shortcomings in preparation for the Hawkeyes, who IU will face at home. What will be interesting is to see which one of these teams’ credos wins out. Say what you will about IU, but it doesn’t get blown out. Its only lopsided totals this season resulted from being forced to play a third-string quarterback against Penn State and went on a garbagetime skid in the last five minutes of the fourth quarter against Michigan State.

mands of college play. Brown Jr. celebrated his 18th birthday two days before the Michigan State game. Nonetheless, he already has seven Big Ten starts under his belt. Saturday, he will make his third start against a top-10 Big Ten football team, No. 10 Iowa, a ranking many would argue — and reasonably so — is too low for the undefeated Hawkeyes. Really, IU is quite fortunate. It has plenty of practice now in this scenario, having faced the defending national champs and No. 7 Spartans, contests which came down to the fourth quarter. Not many teams get three

Conversely, the Hoosiers also don’t blow out opponents, playing up and down to their competition this season as Wilson’s teams have an odd reputation of doing, mostly as the consequence of having a bend-and-don’t-break defense coupled with a prolific offense. Iowa, on the other hand, is accustomed to winning handily by an average of 17.4 points. It is especially honed at putting away “bad” teams, such as Iowa State and Maryland, which as — let’s face it — IU can now be considered. Heck, the Hawkeyes even beat No. 20 Northwestern by 30 points. Does Iowa pick up its ninth win in Memorial Stadium?

put the ball into the back of the net.” Hollinger-Janzen would triple IU’s lead in the 38th minute when he latched onto a pass from freshman midfielder Jeremiah Gutjahr to score IU’s third, and his seventh, goal of the season. The senior forward, who was part of IU’s 2012-championship winning team, is currently the Hoosiers’ leading scorer. The Hoosiers were able to restrict the Spartans’ attempts on goal and headed into the half time break with a 3-0 lead. However, the Spartans started the second half the brighter of the two. Michigan State senior midfielder Kyle Rutz reduced the deficit with his first goal of the season. First half goal scorer Hollinger-Janzen would then assist Ballard in the 69th minute. Ballard scored his first IU goal in some style as he half volleyed the ball into the topright corner of the goal from just outside the box. “Richard’s goal was one of the nicest goals of the season,” IU Coach Todd Yeagley said. “It’s nice to see Richard getting his first career goal.” Michigan State tried to reduce the deficit but IU’s defense, which has been resolute all game, was able to restrict the Spartans’ chances. “I thought we were good defensively,” Yeagley said. “Colin (Webb) didn’t manage to get a shutout but our team was very good defensively.” The Hoosiers were sitting at rock bottom three Big Ten games ago, but with this win they have now taken the maximum nine points and have put themselves in a commanding position to host the quarterfinal game of the tournament. “I felt great even when we were in the eighth or ninth position because the team has been playing really well,” Yeagley said. “Our sport can be cruel, but I thought the team stayed on track and in the moment and took care of what’s in front of them.”

He explained the basic rules of crossword puzzles: they must be symmetrical and visually appealing, no words can repeat, two letter words are not allowed, all the words must interlock and the puzzle should contain interesting and fresh words. There must be a minimum of obscurity and crosswordese, and every answer must be a real word or phrase.

The audience also had the opportunity to participate by filling out slips that stated “Tell us about the last choice you made — good or bad.” The host, David Crabb, read the slips in between stories.

An answer at the bottom of the puzzle was “10,” and its clue was the number of clues in this puzzle that contain factual errors. One of the incorrect clues was “FE” (the symbol for iron) but the answer was neon, and another clue was “typical office closing time,” with the answer 9 a.m. He told another story of a marriage proposal via crossword. He managed to work the couple’s names into the puzzle. One of the answers was “A Modest Proposal.” “Crosswords, like movies and life and everything else, should reflect life,” Shortz said.

pleased with the coffee in Bloomington. “You can throw a rock and hit a coffee shop,” Crabb said. Kirsty Bennett is a producer at the Moth and the manager of its college program. She said the Moth teaches the students about narrative arch, story structure and ways to shape their story. The students also learned about the Seven Principles of Moth Storytelling, Bennett said, which is a way for students to look at their stories, condense them into five minutes and turn them into art. Bennett said working with the students had been absolutely wonderful. “They came in with a lot of enthusiasm,” Bennett said. Bennett said it is amazing how many of the students did not know each other before coming to the workshops but received the opportunity to share

intimate details about their lives and get to know each other at these events. Bennett said they wanted to create an authentic Moth experience, rather than something edited for a college setting. She said there is a lot of high tension and high energy because students do not know if they will be selected, but it is a fun event for both participants and the audience. “The audience gets really passionate about the stories,” Bennett said. Senior Mary Fata said she had heard about the Moth before participating in the workshops but had never listened to their podcasts before. She was not sure what to expect before she started the process, she said, but she thought the experience was great. There was also a level of uncertainty because she did not know whether she would be performing. “I’m kind of nervous,” Fata said before the show.

“If I knew I was going I think I would be less nervous.” Fata said she was looking forward to listening to stories she had not heard yet. Freshman Yassmin Fashir said she was nervous about the performance, but she enjoyed participating in the workshops. “I thought it was really fun,” Fashir said. “I met amazing people.” The workshops and StorySLAM build many important skills, including public speaking, story construction and editing, Bennett said. It is also valuable on a social and personal level, she said. “It helps them build connections with peers,” Bennett said. “It’s also reflective upon experiences and how these experiences made you who you are today. That’s a healthy thing for everyone to do.”

Babcock said she doubted any riders would give four-star ratings maliciously — maybe they thought their driver was awkward or not friendly enough, or there was confusion during a pickup. Maybe, the rider was just too drunk to realize they gave their driver a low rating. Most students don’t seem to know the ratings can negatively affect drivers, Babcock said. She certainly didn’t until a driver struck up a conversation about it during a ride. Now, she’s extra conscious about giving the best rating she can, she said. “You shouldn’t be rating someone lower than a five if you didn’t have any trouble,” she said.

Bloody, bland and bad ‘Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse’ Tye Sheridan, Logan Miller, Sarah Dumont F Let’s not beat around the bush. “Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse” is garbage. The question is was it good garbage or bad garbage? The film centers around three high school-aged boy scouts who have been friends since they were children. There’s Ben, the sensible and spineless leader of the group. How this works, I don’t know, but the movie was written by the same people who wrote “College Road Trip,” so I wouldn’t waste my breath asking questions.

Carter is the obnoxious second-in-command. He represents every stereotype about high school boys. Finally, we have Augie, the gentle giant. He’s more invested in scouts than his friends and cast as the loser of the trio through the totally not cliché and offensive character devices of his weight and emotional expressiveness. The scouts program has dwindled to just the three of them and their overly enthusiastic mentor, Scout Leader Rogers. After holding on to the past for so long, Ben and Carter are ready to call it quits. They agree to one more camping trip before they take off the uniform for good. Plans change when Ben and Carter are invited to “the secret party” — an infamous blowout all the cool kids go to — because it’s 2015 and we’re still upholding the idea that the amount of Abercrombie and Fitch in your closet determines your social value and gives

you the ability to find abandoned buildings to throw massive raves in. Carter is so thirsty he convinces Ben to sneak away from camp in the middle of the night to attend the party and make their social debut. But when the boys return to town they get more than they bargained for as zombies begin attacking them. They team up with Denise, a girl they briefly went to high school with, to defeat the zombies and find the party before the entire town is bombed. The film gives a pretty accurate depiction of high school students in terms of looks and attitude of the three main characters. The dialogue is realistic and at its best when the three are bickering. There are just a few scenes that make absolutely no sense. In one scene, the boys go to an abandoned strip club and a woman who is clearly a zombie starts dancing and manages to get her top off

before her throat explodes and drenches the boys in blood — because plot be damned if you can get a titty shot. Then there’s the scene where the boys are running away from the zombies and a female zombie’s shirt is caught in fence and torn off. Not only is there an uncomfortable close up of boobs, but Carter takes a moment from running for his life to give them a squeeze. But, you know, who cares about sexual assault when you get another titty shot? Not director Christopher Landon. “Scouts Guide” could have been just another trash comedy, a subpar “Zombieland” you would rather forget, but it went too far. I’m not in the business of ignoring social issues for the sake of entertainment. The answer is bad garbage. Save your time and money. Lexia Banks

Def Leppard began touring with bands like AC/DC and Sammy Hagar when the oldest member of the band, lead vocalist Joe Elliott, was 19 years old. Now, 37 years later, the group released its 12th album, the eponymous “Def Leppard.” For the first half of the new album, “Def Leppard” featured Def Leppard songs that sounded exactly like Def Leppard, as most of its fans were hoping. There are several songs — such as “Let’s Go,”“Dangerous” and “All Time High” — where Elliott stretched his trademark British vocals, Phil Collen strummed radiating chords on the electric guitar, and the rest of the band nailed sharp percussion that makes listeners with the longest of hair bang their heads. The first track, “Let’s Go,” made me yell “Def Leppard is back!” as it had similarities with other Def Leppard hits “Pour Some Sugar on Me” and “Photograph.” However, with seven years of incessantly changing music between “Def Leppard” and the band’s last album “Songs from the Sparkle Lounge,” some of the songs were bound to feature changes in style. They did, with some success, but mostly with mediocrity. The band’s first attempt to modernize its style came on the seventh track, “Energized.” I never thought I’d hear electronic snare drums in a Def Leppard song, but it happened in this track. Combine the drums with the group’s trademark collective background singing, and it just works. The same cannot be said for the rest of the album, though, as Def Leppard attempted modern alternative rock techniques in songs like “Forever Young,” which made the band sound forever old. The in-studio sound in “Man Enough” — on top

of the lyrics “Are you man enough to be my girl?” — made me cautiously skip to the next track in hopes that it would be the only blemish on the album. It wasn’t. The last song of the album, “Blind Faith,” took the cake. The track started with slow guitar and Elliott vocals, then there were flutes and then a hard rockout with falsettos near the end. The choppy rhythm was five-and-a-half minutes of splatter painting in musical form, nothing like the Def Leppard of the 1980s. Aside from the handful of tracks that didn’t portray the original style of the group, the album featured lyrical poetry, love songs that show the band’s soft side and examples of every age of music the band has played through. For example, “Last Dance” is the quintessential ‘80s rock love song, with lyrics like “Do you remember when we used to sing / A shooting star across the sky / A fire that would never die.” On top of the lyrics, the band plays a ‘90s style acoustic with 2000s style studio editing, the result of which is the wrapping of all three decades into one three-minute romantic lullaby. “Last Dance” is the song on every musical album that sits near the end of the list, buried in the songs no one likes, and fails to get the number of plays that it would get closer to the top. Including “We Belong,” the typical smooth-rhythm love song that appears on every Def Leppard album, the band doesn’t venture too far away from its original style — at least far enough to drive away its fans. Unlike most aging rock bands, Def Leppard showed — for half the album — that its style can thrive in a modern world where auto-tune, bubble-gum pop and monotony rule the radiowaves. “Just like the movies when the hero never dies / I am immortal when you look into my eyes.” Taylor Lehman

Mathers unites fun, learning By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

From religious traditions like Day of the Dead to the nature of labor in our world, every event at the Mathers Museum of World Cultures this semester has furthered the global view of the museum. Two upcoming events, both Thursday evening, cover different subjects but share an objective of uniting fun, interactive activities with the educational experience. The first of these events, “Baskauta :: Bachao :: Basket: An Interactive Basket Experience,” begins at 4:30 p.m. Thursday at the museum. Carissa Carman, visiting assistant professor of textiles, said she will introduce patrons to a variety of unusual baskets. “The underground collections are endless, so I’ll be going down there and finding some more nontraditional approaches — certain techniques, ceremonial objects, less utilitarian components for basketry forms,” Carman said. Following an introduc-

tion to these novel forms, Carman said she will explain the origins of each example basket and how materials tell viewers a lot about where those materials come from. Attendees will also try their hand at making sample baskets. Carman said she’s excited to see the diverse range of people who will attend from across the academic and artistic spectrum. She said the objective of the event is to connect communities — artists and scholars, classic and modern and others. “My goal in presenting this type of event is trying to build a bridge between historic and contemporary processes and explore the range of conceptual and utilitarian use,” Carman said. “It’s so great to bring anthropologists and fine artists together.” Jason Jackson, director of the Mathers Museum, said the broader goal of the event is creating a more handson learning experience for anyone interested in the Themester topic “@ Work: The Nature of Labor on a Changing Planet,” which the

museum celebrates in its larger basketry exhibition. “Our museum is committed to supporting our campus’ emphasis on art, design and hands-on learning — what we call a ‘culture of building and making,’” Jackson said. “This event — and our larger Themester basketry project — fits in well with this campus goal.” The second event of the evening is the “Mathers After Hours: Asian Game Night.” The event begins at 6 p.m. Thursday and is a collaboration between Mathers and the Asian Culture Center. Sarah Hatcher, head of programs and education at Mathers, said the event stemmed from a need to reach a larger community of students who may not come to the museum during traditional events. “These special, afterhours events were created to encourage students and members of the community to visit us in new ways,” Hatcher said. “We hope events with evening hours allow students who are too busy during the day to come and spend some time with us doing something fun.”

Jackson said one goal of museums in general is to be a safe space to celebrate different cultures. “They are also supposed to be fun and places where people can get involved as doers, not just passive recipients of programming,” Jackson said. “This is the spirit of our game nights and much else that we are doing.” Sarah Stamey, program associate with the Asian Culture Center, said she hopes to explore further the diversity in the city and at IU. “I hope people will come away with the idea that Bloomington is a great place to live and learn about other cultures,” Stamey said. Jackson said both events call for a more engaged approach than the traditional museum experience. “While long thought of as quiet places to go for inspiration, hence the ‘muse’ in museum, increasingly, museums are important places for young adults to socialize — to go with friends and to go and meet new people,” Jackson said. “We see this in most major cities, and hopefully we can join this trend at IU.”

The Pacifica Quartet will perform Sunday in collaboration with Atar Arad, Jacobs School of Music faculty member, violinist and composer. The concert will include “String Quartet No. 2 ‘Intimate Letters,’” “Whims” for solo viola, “Whims” for string quartet and “String Quartet No. 4 in E Minor, Op. 44 No. 2,” according to a press release. The performance will begin at 4 p.m. in Auer Hall inside the Simon Music Center. Admission is free. The Pacifica Quartet is in its fourth year as the quartetin-residence at the music school, where its members are also full-time faculty. Prior to its appointment at the music school, the Pacifica Quartet was the quartet-in-residence at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City from 2009 to 2012. The quartet is also the resident performing artist at the University of Chicago,

and its members served on the faculty of the University of Illinois at ChampagneUrbana from 2003 to 2012. The Pacifica Quartet’s 2015-16 season includes performances across the United States as well as in Europe and Japan. Atar Arad is a professor of music in the music school’s strings department. Born in Tel Aviv, Israel, Arad studied in Belgium and Israel before serving on faculty at universities in Europe and America. Arad has toured worldwide, recorded for a variety of record labels and published essays on concertos by Béla Bartók and William Walton. Arad began composing music in 1992. Since then, he has completed several compositions and arrangements, including a set of 12 caprices for viola in 2013, according to his website. His pieces also include “Whims” for solo viola and “Whims” for string quartet, both of which will be performed Sunday. Jack Evans

Student musician inspired by the weird By Jordan Morgan jordmorg@indiana.edu | @Jo_Mo14jm

Mayu Mi Veda’s music is inspired by weirdness, she said. Everything about her music from the lyrics of her songs to the way the music is arranged aims at being different. “Never in my life have I fit in with anyone,” Mayu Mi Veda said. “I have always been the outcast but now that I am okay with that. I love weird things.” She said there are no boundaries when no one expects you to be normal, because you can always just do the unexpected. Singer and songwriter Mayu Mi Veda is a junior at IU pursuing a major in Human Development and Family Studies with minors in criminal justice and psychology. However, she said, she has more drive for music than for school. Mayu Mi Veda has had a love for singing and music for as long as she can remember, and said she recently decided to pursue her dream of being a solo artist. The singer/songwriter had never had any musical training until she came to IU and joined Soul Revue, an audition-only performance class in the African American Arts Institute. However, she said she thought of it as a pastime and didn’t take it seriously enough. In August, Mayu Mi Veda was not re-admitted into Soul Revue, which she said was a huge wake-up call about her musical career. Following a breakup this

summer, Mayu Mi Veda said she had time to focus on herself and figure out what she wanted. She then realized she wanted to pursue her music and career as a solo artist. Since then, she has released two covers on SoundCloud and said she will be releasing her first ever single called “D!ss” this December. Mayu Mi Veda writes all of her own lyrics and works with her producer Luan to find the right beats to match her songs, she said. Starting in January, she said she will be learning the producing side of things and will have a studio built in her house. “If I am going to be my own artist, I should know every aspect of artistry and put in the work to make my own music,” she said. All of her songs are related

in some way to her life, and inspired by everyday life. She said even her covers are dedicated to the people in her life. Mayu Mi Veda said one of her covers of Jhene Aiko’s “Promises” is dedicated to her two brothers, and to her best friend, who died from suicide in the 10th grade. “I hope to make people feel better about anything and everything going on in life,” Mayu Mi Veda said. “I just want them to learn to embrace my music and learn to be happy regardless of their situation.” Mayu Mi Veda described her style of music as PB rhythm and blues, which she said is like hippie R&B. It’s a mix of neo-soul, modern R&B and with an electric spin to it, she said. “You can really hear the emotion in her voice,” said

Astrid Mejia, IU junior and manager of Mayu Mi Veda. In addition to the release of her single in December of 2015, Mayu Mi Veda will also release an original mix tape titled “... Just Vibin’” with all of her own music April 20, 2016. She said her goal is to be on tour before the end of 2016. Mejia said she appreciates Mayu Mi Veda’s drive, and believes she can accomplish her goals. Mayu Mi Veda’s mix tape will be available on SoundCloud for free and iTunes for purchase on April 20, 2016. “I honestly don’t want to be as big as Beyoncé or anything,” Mayu Mi Veda said. “I just want to have a cool group of people who enjoy my music enough so that I can travel and sing to them.”

weekend EDITOR GREG GOTTFRIED

‘Our Brand is Crisis’ Sandra Bullock, Billy Bob Thornton, Anthony Mackie A If international politics piques your interest or you just love seeing Sandra Bullock play women in positions of power, then I highly recommend going to see “Our Brand is Crisis.” Opening Oct. 30, this movie is a dramatization of a 2005 documentary of the same name that covers the 2002 campaign of Bolivian presidential candidate Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada and his hiring of Greenberg Carville Shrum, an American political consulting firm, in order to help him improve his chances of winning the election for a second time — he was president from 1993 to 1997 prior to this election. Bullock plays Jane Bodine, a former political consultant hired by Pedro Castillo, played by Joaquim de Almeida, an unpopular candidate in the 2002 Bolivian presidential election, in order to help him defeat his rival Victor Rivera, played by Louis Arcella. Joining Bullock on the team are Anthony Mackie as Ben, Scoot McNairy as Rich, Ann Dowd as Nell, and Zoe Kazan as researcher LeBlanc. The team must work to outwit her arch rival Pat Candy, portrayed by Billy Bob

PAGE 10 | NOV. 5, 2015 Thornton. The film does an excellent job of reminding us that political corruption is an issue, not only here in the United States, but all over the world. Bolivia is facing corruption of its own with massive income inequality due to the privatization of various industries. That gives Bullock’s character the idea to have Castillo’s campaign be focused on discussing what is wrong with the country rather than simply focusing on the things that would qualify. It also gives an interesting look into the toll campaigning can take on a person psychologically when Bodine admits she was dealing with depression. I wanted Bodine’s candidate to win initially and kept cheering Castillo on during the movie. However, that quickly changed when he refused to listen to people asking for adequate representation in government. “Our Brand is Crisis” provides fantastic character development for Bodine, who throughout the film debates whether or not getting back into the ring was a good idea after all. In a time where people are tired of corruption being the order of the day in political circles, it is refreshing to see someone realize the errors of her actions and that she can’t make any real change by being part of a system that furthers the problem.

Amy Winehouse, Island Records DJust as the world is saying “Hello” to Adele after her four-year hiatus, we are finally saying goodbye to the late Amy Winehouse. After the documentary “Amy” was released for mass audiences in the summer, the soundtrack of the film has finally hit the market. Though the documentary received mixed reviews about immortalizing the singer and her personal life — Adele, an avid Amy fan, critiqued the film in an i-D interview in which she said she “felt like (she) was intruding” — the true fans were holding out for the album. Whatever rendition of “Amy” director Asif Kapadia could throw together was insignificant if the songs — the right songs — were there. To be honest, this is a sobering wakeup call for the audience that this isn’t a Winehouse record. The pseudo-album contains a few of Amy’s greatest hits and some live performances from the film to chronicle her sudden uprising and equally sudden downfall. Wedged between them are songs by Antonio Pinto, a literal film score — and let’s be honest, the only film scores anyone

enjoys listening to are those created by Hans Zimmer. It’s almost as if the producers threw on a couple mainstream Winehouse favorites and slapped the documentary poster of the notorious beehive and winged eye-liner on the cover and called it a day. Where is the rare track of her version of “Moon River”? How could anyone leave out “Me & Mr. Jones,”“I Heard Love Is Blind” or even “Take the Box”? One of her best songs, “Love Is a Losing Game,” was on the soundtrack, but it certainly wasn’t the best version. We hear a live performance at the Mercury Awards in 2007 during one of the peaks of Winehouse’s addiction problems. Why

didn’t we hear the in-studio piece set to only a keyboard? Of course, there are the brilliant placements on the album, like her duet with Tony Bennett in “Body and Soul” and the live version of “What Is It About Men” where Winehouse confirmed the song was written about her flawed relationship with her father. In reality, the soundtrack is just a reminder that she’s gone. You can’t have what could have been, you can’t raise the dead, and you can’t have any more of Winehouse. Paul MacInnes from the Guardian couldn’t have said it any better: “It’s a collection for those that want to remember the film, not the artist.” We don’t get the b-sides, the “lost” demos we’ve heard

on YouTube or even all of her hits you didn’t hear on American radio. We get a feeble attempt at memorializing one of the greatest British voices in history for those willing to be ripped-off. It isn’t what fans wanted and — though the statement might be bold to make — Winehouse probably wouldn’t have wanted it this way either. Yes, listening to the final track, the live version of her infamous “Valerie” at the BBC Radio Lounge, will yield misty eyes and a strong ache in your heart. But that ache you feel is nostalgia and the vain wish that a stolen voice could sing differently one last time.

weekend EDITOR GREG GOTTFRIED

PAGE 12 | NOV. 5, 2015

The Oscars have a Supporting Actress problem Though last year’s lack of decent female roles made for a boring Best Actress race, this year’s Oscars are overflowing with incredible female performances. It’s a battle of Old vs. New, with veterans like Kate Winslet, Cate Blanchett and Jennifer Lawrence squaring off against newbies Alicia Vikander, Rooney Mara and Brie Larson. Doesn’t that sound exciting? If only that were actually how this year’s race would play out. Unfortunately, Hollywood has proven once again its inability to give actresses their due, and has pushed Winslet, Vikander and Mara into the Supporting Actress category. At face value, it seems like the studios are trying to secure their leading ladies a better chance of winning. It’s true; current frontrunners Mara and Vikander would have had a hard time competing with

the powerhouses of Blanchett and Lawrence. Even Larson, who is making waves with her emotional performance in A24’s “Room,” might have caused one or both to miss a nomination, let alone a win. However, that’s not the point. This is a pattern of category fraud that we’ve seen repeated again and again, always with women. In 2001, Marcia Gay Harden took home the supporting actress statue for her role in “Pollack.” Despite sharing equal screentime and plot value with her costar, Ed Harris, she was dropped to the supporting category due to lack of name recognition. The same thing had happened decades earlier in 1983, when Jessica Lange won for her role in “Tootsie.” We see it again and again — Eva Marie Saint in 1955, Goldie Hawn in 1969, Meryl Streep in 1979, Tatum O’Neal in 1974, Jennifer Connelly in

2002 and countless others, all clearly had leading roles, all were pushed to the supporting category. Even Jennifer Hudson for “Dreamgirls” — in what world is hers anything but the lead role? In Hollywood, that’s where. In this year’s “The Danish Girl,” Vikander shares equal screentime and narrative importance with co-lead Eddie Redmayne. Even the title, “The Danish girl” refers to her character, Gerda Wegener, as many seem to assume. It’s the role of the doting wife that always seems to be denied a lead actress spot. This pattern of category fraud wouldn’t bother me so much if it happened as much in the lead actor race as it does with the actresses. Can you imagine Redmayne campaigning as a supporting actor for “The Danish Girl,” just because they thought he’d have a better

chance of winning? Of course not. Therefore, he’ll likely lose to current frontrunner Michael Fassbender for Steve Jobs, but at least he’ll lose in the proper category. Now that I think about it, maybe if Leonardo DiCaprio ran as a Supporting Actor for “The Revenant,” he’d finally win for once. But no, they wouldn’t dare belittle his hard work by denying him a lead actor nomination. It certainly has happened: Actors like Benicio Del Toro and Javier Bardem arguably had leading roles and ended up winning in the Supporting Actor category. But it doesn’t happen nearly as often as it does with the women. You could argue that this is a good problem to have — this year, we have so many actresses in great roles that there aren’t enough spots for them all. In an industry that historically has lacked decent roles for women, I should

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

be happy that we’ve at least gotten this far. I’m not. In my mind, there’s a simple solution: expand the number of nominations. We did it for the Best Picture race — anywhere from five to 10 eligible films can be nominated. So why not the acting categories? Studios would still probably place their actresses in the categories

in which they have the best chance of winning, but more nomination spots would be a good start. I know, I know: the vast majority of these movies have only been seen by critics and premiere audiences. However, awards season is my favorite time of year, so we can never start too early.
