New program merger to increase access to healthcare assistance

By Emily Beck @emebeck1

South Central Community Action Program will soon absorb the Cover Monroe Project, creating a new Health Coverage Assistance Program. The merger will expand the work Cover Monroe has been doing: helping area residents navigate the healthcare marketplace.

For the past three years, Cover Monroe has had free public signup help sessions, and this year it will continue at the Monroe County Public Library. For several hours in the afternoon, volunteers from Cover Monroe are available to help anyone find the right healthcare plan and answer questions about signing up for healthcare.

“It cannot possibly get too much newer,” said Laurie Ann Curry, the coordinator for HCAP about the merger. “We’re still in our infancy.”

A proposition for the merger came in August 2015 when David Meyer, the founder of Cover Monroe, approached SCCAP. By the end of November, a contract was signed, and Wednesday, the two entities will meet to discuss

and lay out a strategic plan for the organization.

To those seeking help from HCAP, operations won’t appear too different from what they were when the organization was Cover Monroe. But the absorption will benefit both entities — Cover Monroe, which is run completely by volunteers, will have greater stability under SCCAP, Meyer said.

The latter is a large nonprofit organization with a budget, he said, and a new paid executive director will be in charge. SCCAP will also be able to enter the healthcare arena and offer wider services to those they already help.

“It was perfect timing for us to join forces,” Curry said.

Because SCCAP covers Morgan, Brown and Owen counties in addition to Monroe, Cover Monroe will be able to access a wider base of clients to assist with healthcare signups: about 4,000 families and 9,000 individuals, Curry said.

About 120 volunteers make up Cover Monroe. Many of these are navigators, which means they are licensed to help people sign up for

Freshman Lilly King practices breastroke Monday in the Counsilman-Bilingsley Aquatic Center.

Stroke of success Freshman swimmer wins national championship in Washington

By Hailey Hernandez hmhernan@indiana.edu | @haileyh27

When the season started, IU freshman swimmer Lilly King expected to improve, but she did not know just how far her training would take her.

The Evansville, Indiana native is used to competing at a high level.

She is two-time state runner-up in the 100 breaststroke, and she has a national record in the event for 15-to-16 year-old girls.

She placed third at state in the 200 individual medley and has a Junior World record in the 400 medley

relay.

King, now 18, began swimming year-round when she was 8, after attending a clinic put on by Olympic distance swimmer Janet Evans. But even when she came to IU, Coach Ray Looze said he knew King was just getting started.

What he didn’t know was King would win a 200 breaststroke National Championship on Saturday, just two months into her freshman year.

“I knew she was good, yes,” Looze said. “But she showed at Nationals she is good enough to win.”

King swam for an Olympic Trial qualifying time Friday in the 100 breaststroke with 1:07.13, making her the second-best in IU history. In the finals, she swam even faster and took home a silver medal and another school record with her time of 1:06.43.

King said the 100 breastroke is what she is really known for, so she was hoping to win the 100 and just qualify for the finals of the 200 breaststroke.

But what happened Saturday in the 200 is something she never SEE CHAMPION, PAGE 6

Azalea Quartet member Anna Czerniak performs “String Quartet in C Major, Hob. III: 32” with her quartet during the Pacifica Quartet’s Fall Recital I on Monday evening in Ford-Crawford Hall.

Three different string quartets performed Monday evening at Ford-Crawford Hall.

Each musician was a student of the Grammy-winning Pacifica Quartet, which is the quartet-in-residence at the Jacobs School of Music.

“They are like our quartet parents,” violist Pablo Muñoz Salido said. “We can go to them with any questions, doubts or worries we have.”

The Students of the Pacifica Quartet’s Fall Recital I included Azalea Quartet, Von Quartet and Zorá String Quartet.

The performance was a part of the Dubinsky Chamber Music Series, and was the result of a seminar led by the Pacifica Quartet.

Azalea Quartet features violinists Anna Czerniak and Joy Vucekovich, violist Benjamin Wagner and cellist CJ Collins, and Von Quartet includes violinists Jisun Lee and Guðbjartur Hákonarson, violist Ursula Steele and cellist Joanne Yesol Choi.

Zorá String Quartet is the graduate quartet-in-residence at IU. It includes violinists Dechopol Kowintaweewat and Seula Lee, violist Muñoz Salido and cellist Zizai Ning.

The IU chapter of Sigma Kappa was originally founded in 1918. Almost a century later, and after some time without a chapter at IU, the sorority will be founded again.

Sigma Kappa will recolonize its IU chapter in January 2016.

It will become the 23rd sorority with the Panhellenic Association on IU’s campus.

“It’s more of a unique situation with IU, because we’ve already had a chapter here before,” said Gabriela Rodiles, an extension specialist with Sigma Kappa’s national office. “We’re excited to be able to really hit the ground running with this chapter.”

The IU chapter is one of five new Sigma Kappa chapters being established at campuses throughout the country this year.

The national office of Sigma Kappa worked extensively with IU and the PHA to reestablish the chapter, Rodiles said.

The chapter will be initially led by two leadership consultants from Sigma Kappa, who will move to IU in January.

These leadership consultants will help to circulate information on the sorority throughout campus,

recruit students for the sorority and help the new chapter get involved.

“We don’t foresee any challenges with recruiting,” said Brianna McKay, a Sigma Kappa leadership consultant who will be coming to IU. “But because IU is a large campus, we are going to do everything we can to make sure the campus knows who Sigma Kappa is.”

One interested student is sophomore Ariana Adams, whose mother was a Sigma Kappa at IU. Hearing about the strong relationships her mother formed encouraged Adams to consider joining the chapter when the recolonization was announced, Adams said.

“I thought about maybe going through formal recruitment, but Sigma Kappa just seems right,” Adams said. “After looking at who they are and what they stood for, it just seems like a waste of time to do anything else when I know Sigma Kappa will be a perfect fit.”

The recruitment process for a new sorority chapter begins after formal recruitment for the rest of the PHA’s chapters. While Sigma Kappa is more focused on recruiting students who feel connected to the sorority’s values rather than on the sheer number SEE SIGMA KAPPA, PAGE 6

New scholarships funded by $2 million

By Julie Masterson julmaste@indiana.edu

An alumnus’ contribution will help fund the education of select students for years to come.

The College of Arts and Sciences recently announced the inception of the Knauss Family Scholarship, a $2 million gift that will annually fund more than $150,000 worth of new scholarships for students admitted to the College of Arts and Sciences through its selective direct-admit program.

Funded by IU alumnus and former Clorox CEO, Donald R. Knauss, and his wife, Ellie M. Knauss, these scholarships are meant to increase the enrollment of exceptional students who might lack the necessary financial resources.

“Our goal is to attract more students to pursue the liberal arts,” said Travis Paulin, the executive director of advancement at the College of Arts and Sciences.

After submitting their scholarship applications, students will be matched with the scholarships for which they are eligible.

“The scholarships are for incoming freshmen who have been admitted to IU, meet the criteria for direct admission into the College of Arts and Sciences and have indicated they plan to major in the College of Arts and Sciences,” Paulin said.

Paulin said the amount of money for each scholarship will vary and will be awarded based on the scholarship committee’s assessment of what kind of scholarship would be most helpful to that particular student.

“The great thing about the Knauss scholarships is that the eligibility is pretty wide open,” Paulin said.

Paulin said the scholarships are intended to attract students from diverse backgrounds as well as students who would be unable to attend IU without financial support.

“These are four-year

renewable scholarships, because the last thing you want to do is offer an incoming student a scholarship and then take it away from them after their freshman year,” Paulin said.

Paulin said as long as students maintain consistent, solid academic progress toward a degree and continue to major in any degree area in the college of Arts and Sciences, they will continue to receive funding from the scholarship for eight semesters.

“They’re not necessarily strictly need-based, they’re not necessarily strictly meritbased,” Paulin said.

Paulin said the scholarship serves as an opportunity for the College to recruit students who might not otherwise pursue an academic career in liberal arts.

“If you look at corporate CEOs for Fortune 500 companies, the majority of them have liberal arts degrees,” Paulin said. “Some of them also have MBA degrees or law degrees, but the majority of them have a liberal arts degree of some sort.”

Knauss, who has spent decades in high-level leadership positions at several Fortune 500 companies, cites his liberal arts education as a central part of his success, according to an IU press release.

“We’ve got someone who has received a liberal arts degree and education who has not only gone on to be really successful in corporate America, but also feels so strongly about the liberal arts background and training he received,” Paulin said. “He wants to give back and provide that opportunity for more students.”

In addition to helping the College of Arts and Sciences meet its goal of attracting students to study liberal arts at IU, the scholarship also contributes to IU’s current $2.5 billion bicentennial campaign.

“Don and Ellie’s gift is wonderful because not only does it help meet one of our

specific goals to attract students to study liberal arts at IU, but it also counts toward this big, very ambitious fundraising goal that President McRobbie has set at $2.5 billion dollars,” Paulin said.

The Knauss Family Scholarship qualifies for the bicentennial campaign matching program, which provides matching support for all new endowed undergraduate scholarships of $50,000 or more and all new endowed graduate fellowships of $250,000 or more.

“The generosity of Don and Ellie is extraordinary, and their lives exemplify the values and virtues of a liberal arts education,” said Larry Singell, executive dean of the College of Arts and Sciences.

Singell said Knauss’s career is a prime example of the breadth of accomplishments that can be achieved with a degree in arts and sciences.

“This remarkable gift will allow the College to attract the best and the brightest freshmen and support them as they pursue their dreams and goals,” Singell said.

“Through these direct-admit scholarships, the Knauss family is helping to empower the next generation of College alumni with the transformative skills and values of a liberal arts education, creating insightful leaders and informed citizens.”

The quality, rather than the quantity, of the writing assignments is what matters, according to a study co-authored by an IU researcher.

The study links writing to undergraduate learning and development that shows three features of writing assignments are each positively associated with students’ engagement in approaches to learning and with their perceived gains in learning and development, according to an IU press release.

The three features are an interactive writing process, a meaning-making writing task and clear writing expectations.

Published in research in the teaching of English, the flagship journal of the National Council of Teachers of English, “The Contributions of Writing to Learning and Development: Results From a Large-Scale Multiinstitutional Study” is the result of the collaboration between the Council of Writing Program Administrators and the National Survey of Student Engagement, according to the release.

Authors of the study are Paul Anderson of Elon University, Robert M. Gonyea of IU, Chris M. Anson of North Carolina State University and Charles Paine of the University of New Mexico.

Gonyea is currently an associate director of the

Center for Postsecondary Research in the IU School of Education Robert M. and a reGonyea search and reporting coordinator for the student engagement survey.

Norbert Elliot, guest editor for Research in the Teaching of English, said the research demonstrates the importance of both cognitive and noncognitive domains in education in the release.

“For far too long, education has neglected the importance of knowledge transfer,” Elliot said in the release. “This new study demonstrates that shared learning and interactive processes are essential elements of the 21st-century knowledge and skills that students will need in both academic and workplace settings.”

The authors said they hope the study will provide guidance to instructors and institutions because the following features of writing assignments can be incorporated into assignments in any discipline, according to the release.

The study’s authors note that institutions, accreditors and other stakeholders can use the results to analyze the extent to which these enhancements to writing assignments are being used.

Sonneborn lecture to tackle cost of education From IDS reports

IU faculty member Dan Hossler will explore the changing cost of higher education in a lecture led by him.

Hossler’s Sonneborn lecture, “Why Does College Cost So Much? Some Notes on Institutional Agency,” will take place from 4 to 6 p.m. today in the Indiana Memorial Union’s Whittenberger Auditorium, according to an IU press release.

The lecture is free and open to the public.

Hossler, professor emeritus of educational leadership and policy studies in the School of Education, according to the release, will draw on his experience and others’ research to examine how college costs are tied to changes in the higher education workforce and responsibilities.

“If you are a faculty member and you want to have a role in deciding the relative merit of various ways the institution spends money, you’ve got to understand these things,” Hossler said in the release.

Hossler’s research interests, according to a previous IU press release, include student college choice, college persistence, enrollment management and higher education finance from a American perspective, but also from a comparative education

perspective.

“Professor Hossler’s research epitomizes the type of scholarship that has tangible effects on educational practice and that illuminates complex issues for the public,” said Terry Mason, interim dean of the School of Education, in the release.

“I am very pleased that his fine work is receiving the recognition it deserves.”

Hossler serves as the director of the Center for Postsecondary Research at IU-Bloomington, according to the release. He has previously served as the executive director of the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center, the IUBloomington vice chancellor of enrollment services and IU associate vice president of enrollment services.

After the lecture, a reception in the IMU University Club President’s Room will honor Hossler, a recipient of the 2015 Tracy M. Sonneborn Award, according to the release.

The Sonneborn Award honors an IU-Bloomington faculty member for outstanding research and teaching.

The reception, according to the release, will also honor newly appointed provost professors Randall Beer in the Cognitive Science Program, Kari Ellen Gade in the Department of Germanic Studies and Stephanie

Sanders in the Department of Gender Studies.

Faculty members designated Provost Professors have achieved local, national and international distinction in research and teaching.

Because state support for higher education is unlikely to increase in the foreseeable future, Hossler suggests universities focus on spending decisions that reflect institutional priorities, he said in the release.

For example, the number of administrative and professional employees at public research universities has grown while the number of faculty members at public research universities has not, according to the release. However, the reasons for this trend are complex and include changes in research, information technology and student services.

Universities are also spending more on student recruiting, admissions, orientation and financial aid to attract and retain the most desirable students, according to the release.

“There are value judgments that have to be made about how universities spend their money because the external funding environment is not likely to change,” Hossler said in the release.

‘UNDOCUHOOSIERS’

Many undocumented youth spend their childhood here, but do they have a right to an Indiana education?

Annie Garau agarau@indiana.edu | @agarau6

For much of their lives in the United States, young undocumented immigrants are nearly indistinguishable from their American peers.

Many of them speak perfect and unaccented English, they wear the same clothes as their friends and when the National Anthem plays in school, they reflexively place their hands over their hearts.

But as they grow older that similarity wanes. By the time their peers are preparing for college, most undocumented youth are painfully aware of the limitations their illegal status places on them.

In Indiana, for example, undocumented students would pay three times more than citizens to attend IU. Indiana is one of only three states, along with Arizona and Georgia, that explicitly bar undocumented students from receiving in-state tuition, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

Eighteen states, including Illinois and California, have provisions that allow undocumented students to pay instate university tuition rates.

Without this benefit, college becomes impossible for many young Hoosiers. Activists, economists and politicians are divided as to whether or not that’s a good thing. * * * Lupe Pimentel was six when she crossed the border with her mother and siblings.

Though her early memories of home in Vera Cruz, Mexico, are hazy at best, she knows on their way into America, her family was stopped by gang members who held her broth-

er at gunpoint before letting them through.

Growing up in Indianapolis, she said she rarely noticed a difference between her and her classmates. It wasn’t until the eighth grade that she learned she wasn’t a citizen.

She had been filling out a form for the 21st Century Scholars Program, a group meant to help Indiana students graduate college. One of the requirements was a social security number. She asked her mom what hers was.

Her mom explained their situation to her.

Disheartened, Pimentel gave up on her schoolwork.

“What’s the point? she figured” At the end of her sophomore year of high school, she found some hope. in the Latino Youth Collective, an organization that helps youth get involved with grassroots advocacy efforts and spread awareness on Latino issues.

She found it was possible to change things so that undocumented youth can go to college. She began working harder in school and devoted herself to advocacy efforts. * * * On May 9, 2011, then-governor Mitch Daniels signed House Bill 1402 and Senate Bill 590, both of which banned undocumented immigrants from receiving in-state tuition.

In response, Pimentel, who was 17 at the time, joined five other undocumented immigrants in protest outside Daniels’ office.

“I’ve been here since I was 6,” Pimentel wanted to tell him. “I am a Hoosier, and for you to cheat me out of state tuition isn’t fair. An education is a right.”

Daniels would never hear her story.

The students were arrested for their peaceful protest, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was called and Pimentel spent a night in jail.

Eventually, a guard came to get her from her cell.

“You’re going home,” the woman said.

Pimentel’s eyes widened.

“Wait, what home?” she asked, fearing she was being deported to the country she hadn’t seen since she was six.

The policewoman burst out laughing.

“I’m sorry,” she said to the relieved Pimentel. “I mean you’re staying here.”

Since that day, Pimentel has become a leader in Indiana’s young Latino community.

Now 23, she is a president and co-founder of the Indiana Undocumented Youth Alliance, a group devoted to helping immigrants to achieve higher education.

She regularly works with Indiana officials and residents to change the way undocumented immigrants are treated in the state.

One of her main partners has been Sen. Earline Rogers, D-Gary.

In the most recent legislative session, Rogers wrote Senate Bill 345, which would have allowed certain undocumented students to be eligible for resident tuition rates.

Eligible students would have to have attended high school in Indiana for at least three years. They would have had to register and enroll at an in-state institution after fall 2015. They would have either to graduate from an Indiana high school or receive the equivalent to an Indiana high school diploma.

Shalom Center awarded $350,000 for new shelter From IDS reports

The Shalom Community Center was recently awarded up to $350,000 for the operation of a new homeless shelter.

The shelter, currently named the Community Sheltering Project, will replace what was formerly the Martha’s House shelter, according to a city press release.

The transitional funds, which will be received throughout 2016, were awarded to Shalom by the Bloomington Urban Enterprise Association.

BUEA is an organization dedicated to sustaining Bloomington’s economic vitality.

“I am gratified the BUEA was able to stabilize this valuable Bloomington re-

source and give it potential for future growth,” Jack Baker, the president of the BUEA, is quoted saying in the release. “With continued support from the community its future can be bright.”

Last Wednesday, the Bloomington City Council requested BUEA provide $150,000 in transitional funding, which BUEA agreed to do.

“For the first time in my memory, this transitional shelter has the financial resources necessary to build a sustainable future,” city council district five representative Darryl Neher was quoted as saying.

In addition to providing that, BUEA went a step further by offering to match any contributions up to $200,000 made to the center after Jan. 1.

“For the first time in my memory, this transitional shelter has the financial resources necessary to build a sustainable future.”

Darryl Neher, City Council district five representative

“I’m in awe,” Rev. Forrest Gilmore, Shalom’s executive director, is quoted saying in the release. “This is an extraordinary gift. Not only will this save 40 yearround emergency shelter beds in our community, but perhaps even more importantly, give us the necessary time to grow our budget to make this sustainable for the long haul.”

Annie Garau

The federal bill, based off of the federal legislation the DREAM act, which stands for Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors, was first proposed in 2001.

Though it hasn’t ever been passed, it has prompted state legislators to write their own versions of the bill to help undocumented minors.

Twelve states and Washington, D.C., have passed laws that allow unauthorized migrants to get drivers licenses.

Those 12 plus another six states have legislation allowing undocumented students to receive in-state tuition.

For Rogers, SB 345 would provide both social and economic benefits to the state of Indiana. Other legislators, like Sen. Brent Waltz, R-Greenwood, do not see it that way.

“I don’t really think it’s appropriate or fair for Indiana taxpayers, many of whom couldn’t afford to send their own children to college, to have to spend millions of dollars a year for illegal immigrants to have their children put into the same universities,” Waltz said.

Though Rogers’s Dream Act made it past the Appropriations Committee, she did not call it for a second reading in front of the full Senate in March.

She said she didn’t have the votes needed and wanted to wait until a time when she knew the bill could pass.

She said she hopes that time will be the coming legislative session, which begins Jan. 6.

Waltz also has plans for 2016. Among other things, he said he hopes to promote legislation that would enact harsher penalties for companies using unauthorized migrant labor.

Rogers takes the opposite economic view. She said she feels immigrants are an asset to the Indiana’s economy and need to be treated as such. * * * Chad Sparber, an international economics professor from Colgate University who specializes in how immigrants affect the economy, said states allowing in-state tuition subsidies have accomplished their goal of increasing enrollment rates for undocumented students. However, he said there are some unintended consequences as well.

Sparber has found an inverse relationship between the number of enrolled undocumented students and the number of enrolled foreignborn Latinos who are in the country legally. As the former increases in a school, the latter actually decreases.

“Most people who are against this type of legislation are more concerned about native-born citizens though,” he said. “And we don’t find any evidence that those enrollment rates are declining.”

Another problem with this type of legislation, Sparber noted, was an ethical one.

Most jobs meant for college-educated people are stricter about legality than the average labor job, he said.

So, even if an undocumented person attains a degree, they might not have access to higher level jobs until they become citizens. * * * After graduating from Pike High School in 2010, Pimentel started as a part-time student at Ivy Tech Community College. She spent half her time

working in Mexican restaurants to pay the out-of-state tuition. One year she had to take a semester off to work full-time.

Eventually, due to good grades and leadership, she was awarded a full-ride scholarship.

She said she doesn’t party and she doesn’t drink.

“My parents sacrificed everything for me to get an education,” she said. “I’m very aware of that.”

Still, she said she is angry at the difficult and lengthy process it took her to get to this point. She is angry for all of the other students who haven’t been so lucky.

After qualifying for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, Pimentel was able to visit Mexico for the first time since she was six.

On that visit, she learned she had an American accent.

She said she found Mexico to be crime-ridden and frightening. She was told that “real” Mexicans don’t say lemonade, they say lemon water.

She said she didn’t really feel like a Mexican.

Her whole life she had felt like an American.

But Americans are allowed to drive, and they are given instate tuition.

“It’s a question that a lot of us battle with; are we American?” she said of her and her friends on the Undocumented Youth Alliance. “So we came up with a new word for who we are.”

It’s a word they use when fundraising for their program that raises money for undocumented youth college scholarships. It’s a word they use to meld their two identities together.

They call themselves Undocuhoosiers.

IU alumna releases 1st video as solo artist

By Cassie Heeke cnheeke@indiana.edu | @cnheeke

Jacobs School of Music alumna Lisa Dondlinger played violin on Michael Bublé’s most recent record, but now she’s trying to make a name for herself as a solo artist.

Dondlinger has just released her first music video, “Braveheart,” on Nov. 30, according to a press release.

“It’s great to be a person that works for other people, but I just wanted to push myself and see what I could do as a solo artist,” Dondlinger said.

Dondlinger received a Masters of Music degree in violin performance from IU. While in Bloomington, she played in the Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra and the Owensboro Symphony, according to a press release.

Before coming to IU, Dondlinger graduated with

a Bachelor of Music from the University of Iowa. She won the Miss Iowa pageant in 1998 and went on to receive a Bert Parks Talent Scholarship in the 1999 Miss America Pageant for performing “Hoedown” from “Copeland’s Rodeo,” according to the release.

Dondlinger is a Grammy-nominated artist and has credits for performances and recordings with musicians such as Adele, Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, Lady GaGa, Imagine Dragons, Kanye West and more, according to the release.

She has also appeared on shows such as “American Idol,” “The Voice,” “The Tonight Show” and “Ellen,” and she played on the soundtracks to films including “Life of Pi” and “Argo.”

Most recently, Dondlinger performed violin for Celine Dion during her tour “Celine.”

The song in her music video is a combination of three songs from the James Horner-composed soundtrack of the film “Braveheart,” but classical song “Jupiter,” by Gustav Holst, has been woven throughout.

Dondlinger said she feels much of her work is bringing classical music to new audiences — audiences who may not attend a classical concert but enjoy the genre as an aspect of other shows.

To further her solo career, which began early this year, Dondlinger said she hopes to begin touring with singers in equal, twopart shows, then eventually evolve her own solo tour with the violin as the lead role.

She has also launched a new website this week, lisadondlinger.com, where her tour information can be found along with a

“Our goal is to make a career out of it,” Ning said.

The quartet works at least four hours per day, Ning said.

Ning said the musicians in Pacifica Quartet have been great mentors.

Pacifica Quartet includes Simin Ganatra and Sibbi Bernhardsson on violin, Masumi Per Rostad on viola and Brandon Vamos on cello.

Each member works in different styles, Ning said.

For example, Bernhardsson is encouraging and like a dad to the group, while Per Rostad offers an imaginative teaching style, she said.

Muñoz Salido said one of his goals as a musician is to have a professional quartet, and being a member of Zorá String Quartet has been like a dream coming to life. He was lucky to find these musicians, Salido said.

Kowintaweewat said performing violin in Zorá String Quartet involves a high level of commitment and responsibility.

The well-being and the future of the quartet depends upon the actions of each member, Kowintaweewat said, so it is important for the musicians to perform well.

Kowintaweewat said the responsibility of performing in the quartet can be scary, but all of the musicians have common goals. Although it is stressful, he said, he is also grateful to be a part of the group.

The long hours of practice have caused the musicians to

become close, Kowintaweewat said.

“It’s a cliché to say that being in a quartet is like being married to three people, but it’s true,” Kowintaweewat said.

The concert is a showcase of what the quartets have accomplished this semester, Kowintaweewat said, and he is excited for the musicians to offer comments and help each other after the performance.

“It will be great to see how far we have come and how we have improved as a class,” Kowintaweewat said.

KINSEY CONFIDENTIAL

Uncertainty and science: Wondering what to do next Kinsey Confidential is a service of the Kinsey Institute and the IU School of Public Health. For more good sex information, podcasts or to submit a question, visit us online at kinseyconfidential.org.

I am a 24-year-old attractive female. I have never had sex or even come close. I would like to. I am nervous that when I do have sex I will not know what I’m doing. Should I “practice” with someone or even pay someone to “practice”?

Although it may seem like pretty much everyone has had sex or is having lots of sex, it’s not the case.

Most people have engaged in sexual activities by their mid-20s but not all have.

Our U.S. national survey data clearly show that some people wait to have sex until they are in love, until they marry or else they may have simply not felt particularly turned on or into someone.

Some people want to engage in sexual activities but feel like their shyness gets in the way.

You seem to be pretty concerned about your “performance” — essentially, whether when you do try to have sex, you will look skilled or silly.

Guess what? That’s a common concern!

And it’s not just common for the very first time someone has sex, but can be something people think about when having sex with a new partner for the first or second (or 10th) time.

Even people with longterm partners don’t always feel confident in their sexual skills.

Paying for sex is not legal most places in the U.S. but is legal in some particular places and is one option, if that is really what you want to do.

Another option is to meet with a sex therapist (find one throughaasect. org or sstarnet.org) who can talk with you about your worries and your concerns as well as about the kinds of experiences you’ve had and how you might put some of your nerves aside and create the kind of romantic, intimate and/or sexual connection with another person that maybe

you want.

Books like “Sex Made Easy,” “Come As You Are” and “Becoming Orgasmic” might also help you explore your own sexuality and develop greater confidence.

Which sperm cell fertilizes the egg when you have sex a few days before ovulation and which one fertilizes it during ovulation?

If you are referring to sperm with X or Y chromosomes, either one can fertilize an egg at any time there is an egg available to fertilize.

That’s why no one knows whether they will be creating a female or a male fetus — it’s up to chance!

Donald Trumps everyone in contest of idiocy Somehow still the Republican frontrunner, Trump has made perhaps his most extreme pledge to date.

The thumb with a wig has called for a “total and complete shutdown” of the nation’s borders to Muslims.

To back up this claim, Trump used polling data from the Center for Security Policy, which focused on Muslim’s violent hatred towards American’s faith. This organization, obviously, has been branded extremist by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Mass shootings WE SAY: Conversations about mass shootings should not focus on mental illness Following the recent school shootings in America, politicians and the news media have named mental illness as the reason for these incidents.

It’s not just these sources that think mental illness is a significant cause of mass shootings. A Washington Post and ABC News poll, for example, found that 63 percent of Americans believe mental illness is the main reason behind mass shootings.

The Editorial Board cautions that using mental health as a reason for the

terrible wave of gun violence in America could unfairly stigmatize those living with mental health disorders.

Many researchers have found that people who have mental health issues are actually far more likely to be the victims of violence than to be the causes of it.

The American Journal of Public Health found earlier this year that less than 5 percent of the country’s 120,000 deaths related to gun violence between 2001 and 2010 were perpetrated by mentally ill people.

Also, according to the

Journal, people diagnosed with schizophrenia, a severe psychiatric disorder, are 65 to 130 percent more likely to be victims of a crime than to commit one themselves.

So the evidence supporting a strong link between mental illness and gun violence is flimsy at best and outright dangerous at its worst.

The Journal also claimed the “availability of guns is also considered a more predictive factor than is psychiatric diagnosis in many of the 19,000 U.S. completed gun suicides each year,” accord-

ing to its report.

If the U.S. is serious about stopping gun violence, addressing this statistic should be the top priority for lawmakers.

Though mental health resources in America are also in need of drastic investment in availability and services, blaming mental health as the sole reason why gun violence exists dismisses other reasons mass shootings occur.

Part of the reason our society uses poor mental health as a justification for mass shootings is because the use of the term is extremely

broad.

According to the New Yorker, mental illness can be classified as any disorder listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.

Several other sources besides the manual can also change the category of mental illness.

“Diagnostic criteria, too, may vary from state to state, hospital to hospital and doctor to doctor,” Maria Konnikova of the New Yorker wrote.

Under this logic, people could point to virtually every

mental health disorder that is listed either in the manual as reason for the recent spike in mass shootings in America.

Such rhetoric not only is prejudiced against those living with mental health disorders, it also fails to let lawmakers, legislators and advocates explore additional reasons for gun violence.

The conversation about mass shootings can include some mention of mental illness, but it should not be classified as the be-all, endall for the reason our country has faced so much tragedy recently.

Taking it easy and finding yourself before graduation

Beware of phony feminism from celebrities

After final exams, I will be halfway through my senior year of college.

As I plan the next two weeks filled with 10-page papers, exams and the like, I realize I have no idea what life after graduation will entail.

I have no plan, no job waiting for me at the finish line at the moment.

While this is all good and terrifying, there is something liberating about not knowing what comes next.

That means the possibilities are limitless.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m pretty terrified of postgraduation life.

The bubble that I live in will pop and going out for $2 Tuesday will no longer be an acceptable pastime in the real world.

Instead of living in a constant state of anxiety about it

all, I have decided to make the rest of my time at IU as spectacular and as worry-free as possible.

I’m not saying I plan to abandon my studies and just go out partying all the time.

But I am saying I want to make every moment count and to relish fully those moments.

This is the beginning of the end. But I’m not done living in this chapter of my life yet.

I want to jump off the quarry rooftop with my friends, and I want to Instagram afterward.

Pics or it didn’t happen, right?

I want to go to the Media School Speaker Series and soak up as much as I can from these talented journalists.

And I never want to stop learning.

I want to challenge myself,

but I also want to make time for myself.

Practicing self-care is something I don’t ever want to put on the backburner.

I want to stake out every campus event that involves free pizza.

I mean, let’s be honest, the chances of getting free pizza become pretty slim post-graduation.

That’s not something I’m not ready to give up just yet.

College is the time for us to learn, and I love every moment of it.

But we spend so much of our time stressed out, sleepdeprived and caffeine-filled.

While this is our time to discover our abilities, it’s also about having fun and not worrying too much about what is out of our control.

Truthfully, I don’t exactly know what I want to do with

my life because I could see myself doing so many different things and being perfectly happy.

I don’t even know if I want to continue writing columns for the Indiana Daily Student next semester.

But who knows? Maybe I want to try something new.

All I know for certain is that I haven’t finished learning about myself yet.

SAM SAYS

Make sure to include others in your holiday fun The holiday season is typically assumed to be filled with joy — and for good reason.

Families travel thousands of miles to embrace one another, shares stories and celebrate life.

However, we must be aware that this season can be especially torturous for many of our neighbors, particularly those experiencing mental health issues. Misunderstanding can add insult to injury when we jump to conclusions during the holidays.

Suicide rates are often misleadingly touted as painting complete pictures of a population’s mental health status, but suicide’s presence during the winter season is not as prevalent as many are led to believe. National suicide rates

are actually the lowest during the month of December, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Unfortunately, many of us overlook or minimize the presence of other cries for help from our friends and relatives. Depression and anxiety can become magnified during the holiday season for a variety of reasons, according to mayoclinic.org. Social anxiety and a negative self-image can cause many individuals to isolate themselves for fear of being seen.

On the other hand, depression can result in isolation of a different, yet equally painful, breed.

Seniors and frail elders can experience additional isolation as the holidays come

around. Those in residential and long-term care might have limited access to transportation, requiring them to rely on their family members to come for visits. If loved ones and friends fail to show up, the loneliness can be devastating.

Another group that can experience issues and sadness during the holidays are LGBTQ individuals. Not all who come out are welcomed by their families, and the addition of extended family during the holidays can be especially challenging. For many closeted individuals, their queerness is an unbearable elephant in the room that is only made worse by negative social commentary relatives might make. As a result, some LGBTQ individuals are

left with few people to turn to during the holidays. If you are fortunate to be a part of this small circle, be sure to express your love.

This holiday season, let’s make inclusion a top priority. Let’s make the effort to be there for a friend that might be experiencing mental health issues. Instead of highlighting negatives or forces that divide, let us remember the familial love that is at the core of this season. sjdickma@indiana.edu @Samuel_Dickman

Feminism has become a trend among young female celebrities, including Emma Watson, Taylor Swift and everyone with whom Swift has ever taken an Instagram photo. High visibility and celebrity endorsement for a social movement always has an upside, but in this case it has a bit of a downside as well. At a certain point, feminism stops benefiting from the celebrity when the celebrity starts profiting from feminism.

With any movement, it’s important to spread the word. Honestly, celebrities that don’t use their platforms to discuss issues that are important to them are wasting valuable access to the public.

So the more female stars call attention to feminism, the easier it is to erase the irrationally negative stigma. However, sometimes it becomes clear why celebrities aren’t always the best choice.

Cara Delevingne, model and member of the Swift squad, has come under fire for plagiarizing and ignoring the feminist community.

Delevingne posted photos of herself wearing a sweatshirt with the words “The Future is Female.”

Her girlfriend, St. Vincent musician Annie Clark, has also been seen wearing a similar sweatshirt, which was made by Rachel Berks, the owner of a small business in L.A., Otherwild.

Otherwild is donating 25 percent of the proceeds from the shirts to Planned Parenthood.

Based on the popularity of the shirt on Delevingne’s Instagram, she decided to start her own charity campaign selling sweatshirts of the same design on her own. The proceeds from her shirt will go to the United Nations initiative, Girl Up. The phrase itself originates from a T-shirt worn

by Alix Dobkin in 1975 for the opening of the first ever women’s bookstore in New York City, according to the New York Times.

Since the phrase isn’t original to Otherwild, using it wouldn’t be so bad if De-

Jordan Riley is a senior in comparative literature.

levingne hadn’t also copied the design. It’s literally exactly the same.

Both shirts are being sold for charity and both sport a feminist ideology so ideally everyone wants the same thing. The problem is Delevingne ripped off someone whose ideologies she claims to support. Taking the design and marketing it as her own charitable contribution makes it look like she made a bid for niche marketing of her own image.

Feminism is the “it” mantra of the teen idol set, and now Delevingne just seems to be pandering.

She could have redirected her curious fans to the site where she got her shirt, giving credit to the designers and their own agenda.

It would have been a more altruistic move, and it would have kept the focus on the message and off Delevingne’s reputation as a style maker. It’s the redirection that makes this move seem disingenuous.

Celebrities spread information and inspire goodwill for movements, but now that gender equality has become the favorite catchphrase of so many in Hollywood, it’s hard not to feel like it hasn’t been a little bit hijacked.

I don’t mean to doubt that celebrities believe the ideas they endorse, but I worry that the focus has shifted.

Feminism isn’t important because Delevingne, Swift or Watson think it’s cool. It should be represented by its own considerable merit and not used to provide a third dimension to starlets.

Otherwise, a movement that stands for the gains and continued struggles of women, and society as a whole, is reduced to a brief trend. These women don’t own feminism and should take more care not to derail it. jordrile@indiana.edu @riledupIDS

The goal for the IU chapter of Sigma Kappa is to experience enough growth to have a house within five years of being chartered, and the current level of interest from students is encouraging, Rodiles said.

Adams was drawn to the community experience of a sorority as well as

the philanthropy aspect of sorority life, like many other students who join greek organizations, she said. But the different recruitment process and the chance to be a part of her mother’s sorority convinced her to wait until the Sigma Kappa recolonization, Adams said.

“Since it’s a new chapter, the recruitment process seems that it will be even more focused on forming friendships with the new members,” Adams said. “That makes me really excited to be part of a new organization.”

King finished with a time of 2:24.47, a new record for her age and a lifetime best with an improvement of five seconds.

After breaking the 15-year record, she was a national champion.

“Winning and getting the record was awesome,” King said. “Especially for the 200 because I had no idea what the record was, which isn’t like me. I was happy and relieved to win after getting second so many times in Nationals this summer and in the World University Games.”

King is a freshman, but Looze doesn’t look at her as one.

He said he considers her an experienced swimmer and a seasoned veteran who has had her fair share of international trips.

“She loves to swim and

she loves competition,” Looze said. “(King) is someone who has the ability to win whenever she’s in the water. She’s learning how to work hard, and I think she has a lot left in the tank.”

King attributes her success to a stable training environment, a good mix of coaches and weight training.

With all of her experience, King admits she doesn’t get nervous anymore.

“The meet was laid back for me because most of the fans were interested in the other events with swimmers like Michael Phelps,” King said. “I got a good indicator of where I rank right now (in the world) as an individual.”

Before competition begins, Looze said King likes to keep things light and free.

The only thing that changes after her performance at Nationals is the level of, expectation for King. She knows what she is capable of and she’s going to begin raising her self-expectations, Looze said.

Looking ahead, King admits it’s hard not to think about making the Olympic team at the Trials in June.

She would need a secondplace finish in both events to compete in the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Brazil.

She is trying to finish off the semester strong academically, before beginning to focus short-term with a Big Ten team title. For NCAA com-

After winning the 200 breaststroke, King returned to her hotel and celebrated with a Slurpee from 7/11. Looze joked about her nutrition after she brought McDonald’s to a team meeting one Tuesday afternoon.

“I needed to get lunch somewhere, so I ran to McDonald’s,” King said. “When I came to the meeting everyone looked at me like I was crazy.

So it’s kind of become a thing, and I always swim fine on Tuesdays.”

King said as long as she keeps swimming well, the McDonald’s will stay in her diet.

Meyer said because it was the first day, only about a half-dozen people came for assistance. The demographic leaned toward an older crowd, he said. Younger people more often know how to use complex websites, Meyer said, and can breeze through the federal marketplace site.

But the process is complicated, Meyer said. One has to consider family income and taxes, and from there glean which type of

coverage to opt for and which website to use.

“Buying a CD or DVD off Amazon is a lot easier than buying a years’ worth of medical coverage for you and your family,” Meyer said.

Curry called it intimidating. After first signing up for coverage herself, she discovered no one in the Bloomington area — no one closer than Indianapolis — accepted her dental or vision package, even though it was on an IU health plan. She said she wants to make sure no one has to deal with the frustrations she dealt with.

The Batman family fled war-torn Syria in 2012 and eventually settled in Indianapolis about a year ago. Marwan, the father, works in a Middle Eastern store and restaurant, earning $8.30 an hour to provide for his wife and four children (wife and oldest daughter not pictured). Last month, after the attacks in Paris, Gov. Mike Pence suspended the resettlement of Syrian refugees in the state.

INDIANAPOLIS — The kids felt it first. That day, when the governor declared refugees like them unwelcome, fear pulsed through their schools.

Rama, the 15-year-old, heard it in her classmates’ voices when they blamed Muslims, saw it when they pointed at her headscarf. Rakan, her 13-year-old brother, was caught off guard when a group of boys approached him in the hallway.

“Are you from ISIS?” they asked him. He shook his head and shuffled away.

Like the rest of their family, the two teenagers knew about the terror in Paris the previous Friday — the bombings and gunfire that had left more than 100 people dead. They knew the ISIS had claimed responsibility for the attacks and that a fake Syrian passport had been found among the destruction.

The following Monday evening, when the Batman family heard that Gov. Mike Pence was blocking Syrian refugees from entering Indiana, their small apartment fell silent.

Ten seconds passed. Fifteen, then twenty. Marwan, the father, was the first to speak.

“Call?” he asked in his broken English, holding up a cell phone.

“Call?”

Marwan didn’t know the governor’s name and didn’t understand that getting him on the phone would be almost impossible. Over the rims of his glasses, he looked at his wife Lona, at Rama and Rakan, at his two youngest daughters chasing each other up and down the staircase.

If he could just talk to the governor, maybe Marwan could tell his

family’s story. Maybe Marwan could help him understand. * * * The Batmans are among a handful of Syrian families who have fled civil war and settled in Indiana, joining about 2,000 Syrian refugees living across the United States. Since the terrorist attacks in Paris, they have been swept up in a national wave of paranoia and hatred.

In Chicago, two men were asked not to board a plane after they were overheard speaking Arabic. Human feces and pages ripped from a Quran were thrown at the door of a Texas mosque. A few hours’ drive from that mosque, protesters outside an Islamic center carried picket signs and 12-gauge shotguns.

As outrage grew, an Indianapolis refugee volunteer told the city’s small community of Syrians to stay in their homes. “People are angry,” she warned them. “I don’t know what’s going to happen.”

Citing concerns of terrorism, more than half the country’s governors announced plans to oppose or block Syrian refugees from settling in their states. Pence was one of the first.

“Indiana has a long tradition of opening our arms and homes to refugees from around the world,” Pence said in a statement. “But, as governor, my first responsibility is to ensure the safety and security of all Hoosiers.”

When Pence made his announcement, a new family of Syrian refugees was scheduled to fly into Indianapolis the next day. They never made it. The couple and their small child

were rerouted to Connecticut, where the governor publicly welcomed them and bashed Pence’s decision.

“This is the same guy who signed a homophobic bill in the spring, surrounded by homophobes,” Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy said.

“So I’m not surprised by anything the governor does.”

As masses of Syrians huddled outside European borders and in cramped refugee camps, they became the central figures in a debate over the soul of America. Would a nation founded by refugees now turn them away?

Politicians labeled them terrorists-in-wait, saying the United States’ intensive screening process couldn’t catch everything.

“Highly concerning,” Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker said.

“It is clear that the influx of Syrian refugees poses a threat,” Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said.

“I will do everything humanly possible to stop any plans ... to put Syrian refugees in Mississippi,” Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant said.

Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump suggested the refugees could be a “Trojan horse” for terrorism and proposed barring all Muslims from entering the country. Fellow candidates Jeb Bush and Ted Cruz offered plans to accept only Christian refugees.

President Obama condemned the blockade, calling it “shameful” and “not American.” He declared the U.S. would continue to accept refugees.

As America argued, the flood of people trying to escape Syria continued. Ten million Syrians have been forced out of their homes as casualties of an ever-escalating civil war.

Of those, more than 4 million have fled the country and registered as refugees.

Glass pulled two red New York Yankees hats out of his coat and put one on. “‘I just talked to a partner,’” Glass said, according to Sudfeld. “’We’re going to New York.’”

The team jumped up, clapped their hands and cheered for the director, for the team and for the program that hasn’t reached a bowl

game since the 2007 season, when the Hoosiers lost to the Oklahoma State Cowboys, 49-33.

The Hoosiers were going to the New Era Pinstripe Bowl in New York City to play the Duke Blue Devils the day after Christmas.

The senior class — the 2012 class and others — had achieved what it had come to IU to prove: they could turn around the IU football program that had seen its fair share of dismal years — a program that had only been to 10 bowl games in its existence.

“When I came here, that was the goal for most of us,” senior offensive lineman Jason Spriggs said. “We wanted to turn the program around.

We wanted to go to a bowl.

We saw ourselves getting to

that bowl game, and it’s great to finally accomplish that.”

The 2012 class came into the program with players like Spriggs, Sudfeld, defensive end Nick Mangieri, offensive lineman Dan Feeney and former Hoosier running back Tevin Coleman.

It was the class that lit a fire in the hearts of the IU football fan base, and the players felt it from what Wilson told them during the recruiting process, Spriggs said.

“Coach Wilson really sold me on that this is a family, the family I belong to,” Spriggs said. “That’s why I ended up coming here because I felt like this was a home. Coach Wilson only ever promised that we would have good guys in the locker room, we were gonna play hard and we were

guys in the classes below us to take what we’ve done and run with it.”

Mangieri said while the anticipation of the bowl game will continue to build throughout the month of December, he’s trying to prepare the same way he’s always prepared this season.

“I’m definitely planning on having one of the best games of my career,” Mangieri said.

These performances are what allowed the most heralded class of Wilson’s tenure at IU is taking him to his first bowl game of his coaching career.

“You have no idea. We are proud, very proud,” Spriggs said.

With the team traveling 760 miles to New York City

gonna win.”

Spriggs said it was the leadership of Wilson that helped him and the others in the class mature into the players that they are now.

He said that Wilson instilled ideas and morals within the lineman that Spriggs didn’t even understand until later in his career, and now Spriggs is teaching those same things to the younger players.

Now that senior class is the anchor that is taking IU football to New York City and the seniors’ only bowl game of their careers.

“I think there’s still a lot of work to be done,” senior defensive end Nick Mangieri said about rebuilding the program. “I think winning a bowl game would be the next step. It’s gonna be up to the

IU (6-6) vs. Duke (7-5) 3:30 p.m. Dec. 26 Yankee Stadium during the holidays, Wilson said he asked the players to raise their hands if they had been to New York.

Around 20 players raised their hands.

But the big city isn’t intimidating anyone, Mangieri and Shaw both said. In fact, Sudfeld said he’s excited to play in the same venue as former Yankees star shortstop Derek Jeter. And Shaw said that he is ready to get to the city to see what it has to offer.

“I heard it’s a really nice place to be around Christmas,” Shaw said. “So I’m really excited to be in New York.”

All-american defender inspires IU teammates

By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZP_IDS

Junior defender Kate Barber was an integral part to the IU field hockey team’s program-high five conference wins in 2015. Her tenacious play on both ends of the pitch lifted her above the competition in every aspect this season, which led to Barber’s being named to First Team All-West Region by the National Field Hockey Coaches Association.

“There’s been multiple changes that have occurred within our program from the coaching change and just the mentality of everyone on the team,” Barber said. “Whatever the coaches have implemented, we’ve responded really well to it, and that’s

a big reason why so many other people, not just including me, have gotten so many amazing awards.”

The 5-foot-1 Barber registered eight goals and seven assists while tallying two defensive saves in her junior campaign that led to her First Team All-Region selection.

Her versatility on the field was a key component for the Hoosiers’ success, as IU relied on her stick work and aggressiveness all season long.

Barber’s teammates, senior defender Sydney Supica and freshman goalkeeper Noëlle Rother, were also indispensable to IU as their play landed them to Second Team All-Region selections.

Barber credited Supica as one of the players that took her under her wing as a fresh-

man, which led her to be the player that she is today.

“Seeing the struggle she’s gone through and how she’s bounced back and been so successful in her career, not just in field hockey, but in life too,” Barber said about Supica. “I think it’s really inspirational how far she’s come and what she’s contributed to everyone, not just me.”

The junior captain earned Third Team All-American honors and the Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week award after her essential performance in wins against two conference foes, Ohio State and Penn State, when she racked up two goals and one assist during the two game stretch.

Hoosiers prepare to play in-state rival Sycamores

By Teddy Bailey @eebailey@indiana.edu @TheTeddyBailey

IU Coach Teri Moren lost to Indiana State last season in her first game against the Sycamores since being the head coach in Terre Haute, Indiana. Moren held the reigns as Indiana State’s head coach from 2010-14 before being named the head coach in Bloomington.

Last year’s game was played in the friendly confines of Assembly Hall, but the Hoosiers still fell, 65-61

in overtime. This season, Moren will make her first trip back to Indiana State as the Hoosiers and Sycamores will battle at 7:05 p.m. Tuesday night.

“They came in here and did a nice job,” Moren said of last season’s loss. “I’m pretty familiar with that group. They graduated seven of those seniors, but there’s players left over from when I was there. Anytime they have an opportunity to play an in-state game, Indiana is the biggest game on their schedule.”

Top Marwan looks through his bag of documents — dozens of papers overflow onto his lap that document his pathway to creating a new life for his family.

Bottom left Lona, 34, sits in her Saturday morning English tutoring session on Oct. 24. The theme of the session was food and preparing dishes. Nina Gondola, a volunteer, keeps the lesson conversational to help Lona with her English. Lona knows very little English, and Gondola doesn’t speak Arabic.

Bottom right Marwan and his friend struggle together at the post office to send a package to Illinois on Dec. 3. They accidentally wrote the “to” address in the “from” box so the postal worker had to give them a label to re-do it.

» REFUGEES

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 what to do with them.

When they arrived, everything was new. Rakan knew his last name — Batman, like the superhero — was famous in America, but not much else.

The family had mapped out their future: apply for green cards, send Rama and Rakan to college, become American citizens, get the rest of their family out of Syria. Go back only after the war.

After American leaders turned their backs on refugees like them, that future felt uncertain. * * * Marwan worked in the back of Al-Rayan Restaurant, a Middle Eastern diner on the west side of Indianapolis. Slicing another piece of fat off a chicken kebab, he wiped away a line of sweat from his forehead. His thoughts traveled 6,000 miles away to his own restaurant in Syria, where he stood at the front, never hidden in a corner.

He was 47, a short man with gray hair and fingers scarred from an accident with a meat grinder. He smiled more often than not. He knew just a few words of English, but laughed at almost everything he heard anyway.

For now, he was making just enough to keep his family going. But he swore he would be friends with President Obama before the year was out.

In Syria, he was owner, operator, host and head chef. In America, he was an $8.30-anhour laborer, an inglorious step down that gnawed at him.

As he sliced off another piece of fat, Marwan sighed and started to sing, filling the empty restaurant with the off-key warbles of “Ebatly Gawab,” an old Syrian love song.

I have a God, who knows me...

From the pain he shields me...

I will be patient all the time, and endure my pain.

Marwan’s songs were his connection home. As he sang, the chaos around him faded away. He was back in Homs, the ancient city where life was “like a dream,” he said. He saw the small arenas where he once played soccer, his mother’s house, his own restaurant.

“Syria, Arabic restaurant, chef,” he said. His eyes flitted back and forth as he tried to find the words in English. He wanted to join Lona at her weekly English classes but couldn’t afford the time away from work. For now, the restaurant would have to be his classroom.

“Work good, money good,” he said, smiling at the memory. “And then...” He made a fist, lifted it high above his head and brought it crashing down on the cold metal table.

The table wobbled.

An explosion. His restaurant destroyed, blown to rubble with the rest of the city. A comfortable life ripped off its foundations.

“And then...”

Then, he started over. * * * When the Syrian army arrived in Homs, the protesters welcomed them with flowers.

Peace, peace, they chanted.

Army and people are one.

The soldiers answered with bullets. In 2011, Homs became the “cradle of the revolution,” and the ancient city transformed into a center of Syrian violence.

When summer came, Marwan and his brothers huddled in their mother’s home. They followed the news on a cell phone and played cards as bullets flew over their heads.

Outside, a dozen snipers sat on top of an ancient Syrian castle, rifles pointed at the street below. They shot immediately and indiscriminately, killing whoever set foot outside at night.

“It was illegal for a human to move,” Marwan said.

As the sun fell one evening, Marwan slept in a front room.

He awakened to the sound of sniper fire and bolted to the door, where he found Borhan, his older brother, about to step outside to find bread for the family.

Marwan grabbed his hand.

“Stop, don’t go!” he pleaded. “It’s not safe.”

Riding past on his bicycle, a neighbor noticed the door open and stopped to say hello. A sniper fired. The young man, a newlywed, fell to the street as Marwan pulled his brother inside.

Airstrikes from the Syrian regime became routine. Parents opened the door to find their children dead on the front stoop.

Marwan let winter come and go and decided to flee in June 2012. Choosing the risk of daylight over the nighttime snipers, the family piled into a minivan and handed the driver $500 to take them into Lebanon.

In Lebanon, they floated through life for two years.

Marwan couldn’t find work, so Lona sold her jewelry to pay for rent and food.

After three interviews with United Nations screeners, they were granted refugee status and assigned to the U.S.,

where they would face what’s been called the world’s most thorough vetting process.

Marwan and Lona sat through three interviews with American officers, answering the same questions each time. No, they repeated, they weren’t planning a terrorist attack. They didn’t carry weapons. They weren’t planning to commit suicide.

“They asked how many breaths I took a day,” Marwan said, opening his eyes wide in exaggeration. “It’s harder for Syrians.”

In Lebanon, they were fingerprinted and photographed, given a full medical checkup, tested for infectious diseases and sent to a class on American culture. Their files were delivered to Homeland Security officials in the U.S., and they waited.

Then, in January 2014, Marwan’s phone rang. A U.N. worker told him his family had been accepted into the U.S. and would move by the end of the year.

In Syria, they knew almost nothing of America. “America bad, Syria good,” is all any-

Accused of preying on fear for political gain.

“Pence seems determined to solidify our state’s reputation as unwelcoming bigots,” one editorial wrote.

After Pence’s announcement, the governor became a national target. In defense of his decision, Pence sent a letter to the state’s Representatives and Senators. Indiana would continue to accept refugees, he said — just not Syrians.

Critics questioned whether a governor has the power to block refugees from a state in the first place. The Refugee Act of 1980 gives no specific authority to states, and the Obama administration has called refugee resettlement a federal issue.

The ACLU filed a lawsuit against the Governor on behalf of Exodus Refugee Immigration — the agency that helped the Batmans settle in Indiana. The group called Pence’s decision an “unconstitutional bluff ” and told him Exodus would continue to bring Syrian refugees to Indiana.

In Syria, they knew almost nothing of America. “America bad, Syria good,” is all anybody ever told them, Marwan remembered. body ever told them, Marwan remembered. Their knowledge was limited: Marwan liked cowboy movies, NBA basketball and reruns of “The Love Boat.”

They had never heard of Indiana.

Ten months later, they boarded a plane in Lebanon, carrying eight suitcases stuffed with clothes. They left everything else behind.

“Our pictures,” Lona said.

“Everything.”

After 17 hours of flights, the Batmans landed at Indianapolis International Airport in a chilling November rain. A volunteer worker met them at the airport with winter coats for the kids, who were dressed for the warmth of Lebanon.

As they pulled on coats and collected their bags, Marwan slipped through a door and stepped outside.

He pulled a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and lit one, shivering in the cold as their new life began. * * * “The governor of intolerance,” the newspapers called him. “Small-minded.”

“He does not have the power to pick and choose between which lawfully admitted refugees he is willing to accept,” the ACLU’s Judy Rabinovitz said in a statement.

“Singling out Syrian refugees for exclusion from Indiana is not only ethically wrong, it is unconstitutional. Period.” * * * Marwan pulled the drawstrings on a bulging plastic bag and dumped half of it onto the couch. Three years of paperwork came spilling out.

Unopened envelopes from official-looking addresses.

Forms — some filled out, others left blank. A scan of four stents in Marwan’s heart.

Medical records. Immigration paperwork. Bills. Almost everything in English.

“Paper, paper, paper, paper,” Marwan said, eyes bulging as he filed through. He held a housing brochure at an arm’s length, then realized it was upside-down. He flipped it over.

He needed their doctor’s name. All six of the Batmans needed vaccinations, and time was running out to get them. Their final green-card

interview was less than three weeks away.

If Marwan didn’t get his family’s paperwork filed by then, they would become unauthorized aliens in the U.S. Refugees couldn’t be deported, but they would lose their rights in the country, including Marwan’s right to work.

Everything would unravel in a moment.

He found a prescription he thought might have the doctor’s name on it. “Dr. Waller,” he read aloud. “Family doctor? I don’t know.” His wife didn’t remember either.

He put the prescription on the table and turned back to the pile. Eventually, he found Dr. Waller’s name again, on a diagram of Marwan’s heart.

“Heart doctor,” Marwan said, pointing at the surgical scar on his chest. “Very nice.”

Very nice, but not the right doctor. Marwan shuffled the prescription back into the pile and kept looking. * * * Marwan, Lona and Rama crowded around a small desk at Exodus Refugee Immigration, shifting in their cold wooden chairs. Behind the desk, Megan Hochbein flicked on her computer and pulled out a thick file.

“So,” she said through an interpreter, “We are filing for green cards today.”

Lona pulled out a notebook. Marwan fiddled with a pack of cigarettes in his pocket.

Hochbein ran through a list of questions, reading each one in English before an interpreter relayed them in Arabic.

She asked if they’ve ever prostituted themselves; if they’ve trafficked drugs into the U.S.; if they’ve participated in a genocide; if they intend on practicing polygamy, which made Marwan giggle.

“Have you ever engaged in, conspired to engage in, or do you intend to engage in, or have you ever solicited membership or funds for, or have you through any means ever assisted or provided any type of material support to any person or organization that has ever engaged, or conspired to engage in, sabotage, kidnapping, political assassination, hijacking or any other form of terrorist activity?”

All three shook their heads.

Marwan only answered yes three times. His family is on food stamps. Yes, he served in the military, he said. Yes, he received military training. Two years of required service in the Syrian air force, well before the war.

“I was a bus driver,” he

said. “I was trained how to assemble and clean the weapons, but I never used it.” He explained that he spent most of his service time playing on and coaching the soccer team.

As the pile of finished forms stacked up, the meeting stretched into its third hour.

“I’m sorry; it takes forever,” Hochbein said. “All of these papers.”

While the government processed their applications, they would be called in for fingerprinting, additional interviews and, possibly, more paperwork.

Hochbein explained it could be as long as seven months before a decision was made on the Batmans’ applications, and approval wasn’t a certainty — even with clean records and a smooth application process.

“It’s not a guarantee,” she said.

When she heard they might be rejected, even after all they’d been through, Lona’s eyes went wide. *** That day, as the Batmans signed more papers and answered more questions, the national debate over the fate of Syrian refugees showed no signs of settling.

Every Republican presidential candidate opposed accepting Muslim Syrians into the U.S. — all but two were against accepting Syrians entirely. Islamophobia was the strongest it had been since 9/11.

Another family of Syrians was scheduled to fly into Indianapolis on Monday. Catholic Charities of Indianapolis had considered defying Pence’s wishes and bringing them to Indiana anyway, so Pence met privately with the Archbishop. No exceptions, the governor said. The Archbishop said he’d consider it.

Tensions swirled around them, and the Batmans tried not to notice. They preferred to stay on the path. They were building an American life bit-by-bit.

Outside Exodus, they headed for the family’s donated Chrysler and strapped in. Marwan turned the key, and the CD player started up automatically. He tapped their home address into the car’s navigation system.

Above them, an almost-full moon floated in an empty sky.

Marwan lit another cigarette and pointed the car toward home. Before they left the parking lot, he was singing again.

that run en route to a gamehigh 22 points.

Prior to the win over the Yellow Jackets, the Hoosiers came up short in the Vanderbilt Thanksgiving Tournament, falling to Ohio before beating Austin Peay in the consolation game.

Wednesday’s game against Indiana State will be the fifth time in the last six games in which IU has played on the road.

“A lot of good things have been happening as of late,” Moren said. “It was certainly a gritty win against Georgia Tech in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge. We enjoyed that one, and now we’ve been getting back to the grind.

We still have a lot of work to do as we head over to Terre Haute.”

Indiana State (3-6) enters the in-state clash coming off a road win against Tulsa, 67-63, a game in which freshman guard Jennifer Mackowiak poured in a career-high 18 points in the winning effort.

Indiana State graduated a plethora of its players from last year’s 17-13 team, however the Sycamores are still led by a duo of dynamic guards that have experience in Terre Haute.

Freshman guard Jennifer Mackowiak, at 5-foot-8, has had a hot hand as of late. This will be the second straight game Moren plays a familiar opponent, as she faced former teammate and fellow coach MaChelle Joseph when Georgia Tech traveled to Bloomington. Wednesday, it will be Moren’s homecoming to Terre Haute, where she’ll face multiple players who she recruited to Indiana State.

“This is the ending of our agreement to play them,” Moren said of Indiana State.

“It’s never fun to play your friends or the kids that you recruited. It’s always been about our players and all bets are off once the ball goes up.”
