How Logan Justus Helped Teach a High School Student to Kick By Caleb Coffman calcoffm@iu.edu | @CalCoff
As he walked through the doors and stepped onto the turf of the John Mellencamp Pavilion, James Knowlton couldn’t believe what he was stepping into. He spun around looking at the red and white walls and the IU logo planted at the center of the field, faded from countless practices. When James Knowlton messaged senior kicker Logan Justus two months earlier, he never imagined it would lead to him standing on IU football’s practice field getting ready to work out with one of the best kickers in the country. Growing up in Carmel, Indiana, James Knowlton and his family were die-hard IU fans. Even with basketball being the main sport in the state, James always had an affinity for football and grew up watching quarterback Peyton Manning play for the Indianapolis Colts. James Knowlton’s love of football grew even more when his family moved out of basketball country to Salt Lake City, Utah, when he was 10 years old, where football is still king. “James has had a love for football from a very early age,” his father Stewart Knowlton said. “Unfortunately, his body size didn’t grow as fast as his love for the sport, so he was forced to focus on a sport with a little less contact than football – soccer.” James Knowlton found success playing soccer as a standout

athlete and grew to love the game, but there was always a special spot in his heart for football. At the end of his sophomore year of high school, James Knowlton realized many of the best kickers in football are also soccer
players. In that moment, his avenue towards football opened. “I started kicking late, late in my sophomore year,” James Knowlton said. “I kind of just started and worked until the next
season.” James Knowlton caught the eye of Skyline High School’s football coach Zac Erekson and was invited to come play for the team
the Bulldogs 18 times. Last season’s 3-0 win against Butler was one of 12 solo shutouts for IU alumnus Trey Muse. That game also featured goals in
A month ago, civil rights veteran Dolores Huerta was arrested for protesting the wages of home care workers with a labor union in California. On Thursday, Huerta shared her experience as an educator, organizer, feminist and activist to a crowd of about 500 people. The event was one of many in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month. IU professor Sylvia Martinez introduced Huerta. “As the Latino Studies Program celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, it really provides an opportunity to celebrate well-known historical movements, but also on occasion, to unearth untold stories,” Martinez said. Huerta co-founded historical organizations such as the Community Service Organization and the National Farm Workers Association. From 1946-1964, Huerta lobbied to secure legislative protections for Latinas and Latinos, passing at least 15 bills into law. By visiting colleges across the country, Huerta said she empowers young students to continue the fight for race, gender and class equity. Huerta said change starts with grassroots organization, education that recognizes the history of marginalized groups and voting. “Unfortunately, in our educational system, we have never taught the real history of the United States of America,” said Huerta. “We didn’t cross the border. The border crossed us.” The crowd was diverse in race, ethnicity and age. It consisted of students, faculty and community members of Bloomington and surrounding areas. Huerta’s visit was

Coming off their first regulation victory of the season, No. 4 IU men’s soccer will hit the road against Butler University. “We know they’re a quality team, it’s an instate rival so it’s going to be a packed house,” freshman defender Daniel Munie said. “We’ll be ready for sure.” IU’s recent 3-1 victory over the University of Wisconsin was marked by three freshman goals and a defense that is improving as the season progresses. With that, here are some things to know for Tuesday’s match at the Bud and Jackie Sellick Bowl.

Butler’s recent 3-0 loss at the hands of Georgetown University exposed a struggling defense and a low-production offense.

Indiana University announced Thursday morning that starting in the fall of 2020, graduate students in the College of Arts and Sciences will no longer be required to pay unremittable fees. The announcement comes just one week after the Graduate Workers Coalition gathered to discuss protesting mandatory graduate student fees. In response to this announcement, the Graduate Workers Coalition had a press conference Friday outside Owen Hall. More than 75 graduate students gathered to show their support. “We celebrate a half-step out of a system that requires us to pay for our poverty,” member Nathan Schmidt yelled through a megaphone. Unremittable fees are those graduate workers pay as a portion of their tuition, totaling about 5% or $1,200 a year. IU is the only university in the Big Ten that requires students to pay unremittable fees, according to a press release from the graduate workers’ public relations representative Elizabeth Williams. These fees are not the ones the Coalition has been protesting. They are protesting against mandatory fees, which cost over $1,300 each year and an additional $700 a year for international graduate students, according to the press release. This reprieve from unremittable fees will only apply to students enrolled in programs through the College of Arts and Sciences. The Coalition stated it will not rest until no graduate student worker is required to pay mandatory or international student fees. “We will not rest until Indiana University shines, not for keeping up with the norm, but as a beacon of excellence in compensating and recognizing the centrality of graduate labor,” Schmidt said.

Class of 2023 is IU’s largest, most diverse ever By Kyra Miller kymill@iu.edu | @kyra_ky94
IU just welcomed the largest and most diverse class the university has ever seen, according to an IU press release. The official university census places freshman enrollment at IUBloomington at 8,291 for the fall of 2019. All seven of the IU campuses have also set records for enrollment of minority students. Nearly 20% of entering students are from underrepresented minority populations, said John Nieto-Phillips, vice provost for diversity and inclusion. This lends to the total number of minority students on all seven IU campuses, which exceeds 22,000. Over 9,000 of these students are studying at IUBloomington, the most of any Indiana campus, according to an IU press release. “We can never do enough to work on those numbers and we are hoping to set that goal again for a fourth consecutive year," said IU spokesperson Chuck Carney. "We are trying to be more representative of the state as a whole and bring in more students from diverse backgrounds." Although IU-Bloomington and IUPUI are bringing in record-breaking enrollment numbers, total enrollment across all IU campuses

has fallen 0.8% from the fall of 2018 with a total of 90,754 students enrolled across Indiana, according to a press release from the IU News-
room. "At a time of heightened competition for the best students, Indiana University continues to be a highly
sought college option, especially for Indiana residents," IU President Michael A. McRobbie said. "These figures are testament to our
determined efforts to ensure that the quality education we offer is accessible and affordable for qualified students from all backgrounds.
We are especially proud of our record number of minority students, who make up more than a quarter of IU's total enrollment.”

ILEARN is the newest statewide test to measure the achievement and growth of Indiana’s students, though some in the education field oppose the results the test yields.
Educators question new statewide test By Claire Peters clapete@iu.edu | @claire_peterss
ILEARN is the newest statewide test to measure the achievement and growth of Indiana’s students, but it has received mixed results from people in the education field. It began in the 2018-2019 school year. “We don’t believe our students and their performance can be minimized to a single test score,” said Dr. Markay Winston, assistant superintendent ofCurriculum & Instruction at Monroe County Community School Corporation. Educators expressed concerns about using tests to judge students and teachers and putting young students under unneeded stress.
These were addressed in a letter from Dr. Judith A. DeMuth, the superintendent of the Monroe County Community School Corporation. The letter expressed her qualms with the tests, of which there were many. “Unfortunately, the goal to make public school children and schools look bad continues and what is worse, it is on the backs of these families as taxpayers,” the letter said. “The continual pressure of testing for our children and staff is taking a toll.” She said it was time to stop making the ILEARN scores public so the schools and their students are not misrepresented, not assigned a grade and give the money used for the test to teachers and staff instead.
Wilson said teachers want to use their time differently. “This experience of testing was very time consuming, it’s taking a lot of time away from teaching,” Wilson said. “One of the challenges is that the teachers would rather be spending their time focusing on instruction.” These ideas are reflected across educators-in-training as well. “It’s kind of depressing to see a third grader get stressed and worry about the tests,” said Wesley Clifford, a sophomore in the School of Education. “Standardized testing in general is a good idea, but not if you overuse it.” Clifford said using tests to track the growth of stu-
dents and their needs can be beneficial, but the way that it is being carried out is what makes ILEARN so criticized. “If you want a teacher to be judged, you can’t judge the merit of someone on other people,” Clifford said. “There are too many factors going on with students.” He said in their education classes they look at both the upsides and downsides of standardized testing, but a majority of his education peers highly disapprove of standardized testing. “When we take a look at outcomes of ILEARN, there are lots of challenges and concerns being voiced,” Wilson said. “At the end of the day, we want to focus on what we do well for our children.”

Bloomington Police Department social worker Melissa Stone spoke at the Citizens Police Academy Tuesday night about her new job. Melissa Stone became the first police social worker in Indiana and at BPD when she was hired in February. Stone said BPD and Mayor John Hamilton discussed ways to cut down high call volume at the station. The result was the creation of her new job. “I never knew this job could be a thing,” Stone said. She said the types of referrals she usually sees are adults with serious mental illness, the aging population living alone and children with behavioral concerns. Stone said she provides crisis intervention and de-escalation, case management and short-term therapy. “I would love to do longterm therapy, but I can’t,” Stone said. “I don’t have time to do long-term therapy.” Stone said from April to

Trojan Vibrator, Canadian Mist stolen from CVS Pharmacy By Grace Ybarra gnybarra@iu.edu | @gnybarra
The Bloomington Police Department responded to shoplifting reports twice Saturday at the CVS Pharmacy on South Walnut Street.
BPD was first called at 11:50 a.m. Saturday. BPD did not arrest 33-year-old Catherine Rian for misdemeanor theft, but issued her a court date. BPD Sgt. Benjamin Burns said Rian stole a Trojan Vibrations Vibrating Bullet
valued at $35.49, nearly $18 of makeup and a $13 fan. Later that day at 7:19 p.m., BPD returned to the CVS for another shoplifting report. Burns said 37-year-old Richard Elsmore was arrested Saturday for allegedly cutting
a hole in a $10 bottle of Canadian Mist and dumping the contents into his own bottle. Burns said Elsmore also stole pens, markers, a toothbrush, Tylenol and Blistex. The total cost of stolen items is valued at $46.
August, she's had 65 referrals and 251 interactions, totaling in 102 hours devoted to her referrals. In addition to her referrals, Stone said she also participates in weekly outreaches to camps and parks around Bloomington. She said she has spent just over 22 hours speaking to and helping the homeless population. Stone said she has had success connecting people to home health and mental health services in her first six months on the job. But Stone said there are many challenges that come with starting a new job. Stone said getting the word out about her job has been challenging. She said she played a presentation about her job at the officer’s roll call and attends roll call so officers can see who she is. She said one of the hardest aspects is being the only social worker at BPD. “I’m not used to being in a place where I can’t go to anyone,” Stone said. “It’s a lot of times me making a decision in the moment.”

Big Red Eats Green celebrates sustainability in local food By Ally Melnik amelnik@iu.edu
Peering through the trees surrounding Conrad Prebys Amphitheater were three large tents in IU colors: two red and one white. Those walking past couldn’t miss the cacophony of volunteers hustling to set up tables and prepare food for the day. IU’s annual food sustainability festival, Big Red Eats Green, took place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sept. 19. BREG has been an annual event for at least the past five years. The festival included five local vendors including Fisher Farms, which supplies most of the meat for campus, and Heartland Family Farm, which provides produce for IU. The vendors supplied their food for Chef David Tallent, the executive chef of IU’s Dining and Catering services, to prepare three different dishes that passers-
by could purchase using IBucks, credit or debit cards. The large, white tent was the focal point of the festival, housing nine black tables for each vendor or organization. One table had bananas stretched across its top and a banana costume hanging from the tent. This table was Fair Trade at IU’s way of showing off their donated and fair-trade bananas from Bloomingfoods. Another table was set aside for the IU Food Project, an organization geared toward educating undergraduates about food, IU junior Celeste Coughlin said. “We teach you how to cook for yourself,” Coughlin said. Participants were also given a Passport to Real Food, for which if they visited all five stations defining real food — locally and community-based, fair, ecologically sound, humane
and disqualifier — they were given a free dessert. Real food is food that is mostly unprocessed and free of chemicals such as genetic modifiers, red dye and highfructose corn syrup. It also needs to nourish everything throughout all food systems. IU junior Emma Schuster is an intern for Sustain IU and has been planning this year’s BREG since June. This year’s festival was the second of its kind in showcasing the benefits of sustainability and real food. “Before (last year), it was more like a farmers market on campus,” Schuster said. The shift from farmers market to featuring sustainability came when faculty members realized that students might benefit from seeing the behind-thescenes of the campus’ food preparation and distribution, assistant director of Sustain IU Makayla Bonney said.

IU Bloomington to participate in Bicentennial celebration By Lyndsay Valadez lvaladez@iu.edu | @lynds_val
The celebration of IU's 200 years is a 10-day long celebration, which began Sept. 18 at IUPUI’s campus. Bloomington’s festivities will end the 10 days with events from Sept. 26-28. "What does being a part of a university that's been around for so long mean to you?" asks Angel Nathan, assistant project manager for IU Bicentennial. She hopes students reflect upon it with the upcoming Bicentennial festivities. To Nathan, this celebration is a cohesive moment for all campuses in IU's history, and it gives the opportunity to reflect on the past 200 years and start thinking about the next. "Before you can provoke change you have to provoke thought," Nathan said. To IU spokesperson Chuck Carney, IU has al-
ways existed to provoke thought. From making toothpaste to a more recent technology that searches out stories made by bots, IU has always been thinking ahead. "I would say the 200th anniversary is not a pat on the shoulder, but it’s really a push forward on the back," Carney said. Having this kind of thought around for so long can make it easily taken for granted, he said. That's why he encourages students to come to the events starting Sept. 26 to experience the community, the alumni, the history and the research that has come out of IU. The fiscal Bicentennial year started July 1 this year. The official anniversary is January 20, 2020. The main events of the celebration’s last daywill start at 10 a.m. with performances in the IU auditorium, which people can RSVP for online.
The first 200 people to arrive will get a replica of IU’s bicentennial medal, an award given to people who have “enlarged the footprint of IU,” as stated on the IU’s honors and awards web page. Following this, outdoor festivities and food will be from 3 to 7 p.m. at the IU Athletics Complex. This will include the world’s largest bounce house, which is 10,000 square feet. During those hours, for people with their crimson card, the bounce house is free. People who have proof of partaking in the Hoosiers Outrun Cancer, which starts at 7:30 a.m. that day, can purchase tickets for $5. For the public, tickets are $10. To use the bounce house on other days and outside those hours on Saturday, the cost is $5 for everyone. A more detailed list of events can be found on the

Biden says he can beat Trump 'like a drum' From Tribune News Service Joe Biden lashed out at President Donald Trump on Saturday, saying he could "beat him like a drum" and demanding a probe into allegations that the president tried to bully Ukraine into joining a "smear" aimed at him. "Trump's doing this because he knows I'll beat him like a drum," Biden told reporters on the campaign trail in Iowa. "He's using the abuse of power and every element of the presidency to try to do something to smear me." The Democratic front-runner also wagged his finger at a reporter who asked whether he intervened with Ukraine on behalf of his son, Hunter, while serving as vice president. Biden lectured the reporter to focus on Trump's reported abuse of power, which is the subject of a controversial whistleblower complaint that the White House is trying to squelch. "You should be looking at Trump," Biden scolded. "Everybody looked at this and everybody who's looked at it said there's nothing there. Ask the right question." Shaking hands with supporters at the Iowa Steak Fry in Des Moines, Biden boasted he would not hesitate to punch back in a general election dog fight with Trump. "I know what I'm up against, a serial abuser. That's
what this guy is. He abuses power any way he can," Biden said. "This crosses the line." The comments from Biden came as Trump continued to defend himself against claims that he has abused his power. Published reports say Trump repeatedly pressured Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky to open a probe into Biden and his son, even though they have already been cleared of any impropriety. Although the substance of the whistleblower complaint has not been officially revealed, Trump insisted that the July 25 call was a "perfectly fine and routine conversation." "Nothing was said that was in any way wrong," Trump said. Biden and other Democrats are demanding that the White House release a transcript of the call, in which The Wall Street Journal says Trump asked Zelensky eight times about the Bidens. It would be a serious abuse of power if Trump were found to have used his position to push a foreign leader to tarnish a political opponent. Trump put a hold on $250 million of security assistance to Ukraine around the same time, but reports say he did not specifically threaten to withhold the money in the call with Zelensky. The money has since been released. Ukrainian officials appear to be caught in a tough spot by

Booker campaign says he’s in danger of leaving 2020 race WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. Cory Booker is on the verge of leaving the presidential race, unless the New Jersey Democrat can raise an additional $1.7 million by Sept. 30, his campaign told reporters Saturday morning. Campaign manager Addisu Demissie said that the late push is not a gimmick. Without enough money to build and sustain a campaign able to compete over the long term, he said, "Cory's not going to continue running and consuming resources that are better focused on beating Donald Trump." The plea for donations came as the Democratic National Committee plans to increase the polling and fundraising thresholds to qualify for televised debates beginning in November. Candidates who miss those contests are starved of attention, and several dropped out after missing the cut-off for the party's debate earlier this month. "Without a fundraising surge to close out the quarter, we do not see a legiti-
mate path going forward to win the nomination," Demissie said in a conference call with reporters, echoing a memo the campaign released early Saturday to supporters and the media. He said the campaign has focused on building a strong staff in Newark and key early-voting states, but needs more funding to realistically compete for the Democratic nomination. As the call went on, Booker's campaign blasted out fundraising appeals by text and email. Coming just days before the deadline for the next fundraising reports, often interpreted as a proxy for a campaign's strength, the appeal drew skepticism from some reporters, who questioned whether it was just another appeal for money. Booker's campaign for months has argued that he is planning for the long haul and that it was too early to react to polls or consider Booker in any sort of political danger. Saturday, they said he essentially has nine days to keep his campaign alive.
TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) speaks at the New Hampshire Democratic Party Convention at the SNHU Arena on Sept. 7, in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Demissie said Booker has received a positive reception from Democratic voters, but that many people have not donated because they think it's early or that he has enough resourc-
es to remain in the race. He argued that the choices will become far narrower than voters realize unless Booker and others garner more support. "The final field that is
going to be offered to the Democratic Party come February, March, April and beyond is being determined here in September," Demissie said. "If you think Cory Booker should at the very
least be a voice in this race and on this stage, then you should frankly lean in right now." Booker's soaring speeches have been well-received in major campaign events, and he has won praise for his performances in the early presidential debates, but his message of unity and love has not translated into concrete gains. He has struggled to break beyond 1 or 2% support in national polls or in early states, and his fundraising has lagged behind the top-tier candidates. Booker also has other political considerations. His Senate term is up next year, meaning that eventually he will have to choose which campaign to prioritize. New Jersey law was recently changed to allow him to run for reelection and president at the same time, but it might be difficult to pitch himself as the Democratic nominee while also seeking a fall-back job.

in the upcoming season. James Knowlton, however, was still committed to playing soccer and before he could take the coach up on his offer, wanted to be assured that he could play on both teams. He was told it wouldn’t be a problem. After practicing all summer and teaching himself how to kick, James Knowlton was ready to compete. Or so he thought. “I ended up getting kicked off the team in the third week,” James Knowlton said. “I had hurt my foot and told the coaches that I couldn’t do the conditioning and all the sprints. I guess there was some kind of miscommunication, and they weren’t too happy about that, and I ended up having to leave.” Just as fast as James Knowlton had found a path towards football, it vanished. After being kicked off the team, James Knowlton refocused on soccer as he tried to put football behind him. Unlike his younger self, who couldn’t get enough football
and dreamed of strapping on a helmet, his love for the sport faded. James Knowlton went almost his entire junior year of high school without kicking a football. But like all things people love, football crept back into his heart, and the urge to play started up again. “At the very start of the summer, I started to get into it again,” James Knowlton said. “It was kind of just something to have some fun with, and I really enjoyed it and decided to reach out to our school’s new head coach.” James Knowlton knew he would be walking into a kicking competition in the fall and desperately wanted to improve to give himself the best chance to win the job. James Knowlton and his family couldn’t afford to send him to a kicking camp or hire a kicking coach, so James Knowlton turned to the internet for help. “You can find a lot of good stuff on the internet,” James Knowlton said, “but I couldn’t find anything I was looking for when it came to kicking and proper technique.”
In a last-ditch effort for help, James Knowlton reached out to Justus on Instagram. “Hey do you have any workouts or drills that I can do to increase my field goal distance?” James Knowlton wrote. “I’m in high school, and I just can’t find anything online. It would really help man. You’re pretty much an idol of mine.” Ten days later at 8:49 a.m. as James Knowlton sat in his 2005 Mitsubishi Galant before starting his workout, an unexpected response popped up on his phone. “Yes, a bunch of single leg movements such as lunges and also hip workouts,” Justus responded. “Focus on technique. The distance will come.” James Knowlton couldn’t believe it as he stared at his phone in shock that his idol had responded. As his eyes glued to the screen rereading Justus’ response over and over, James Knowlton couldn’t pull himself out of his car to start his morning workout.

the first half from alumni Timmy Mehl and Justin Rennicks with IU junior midfielder Spencer Glass sending home another the other goal in the second. For the last five years, the scoring between these instate rivals has been even. In games against the Bulldogs since their 2013 loss, the Hoosiers have outscored them by a margin of just three goals. They outshot Butler by three and had one less corner kick taken. 3. IU’s Offense is becoming more aggressive IU coach Todd Yeagley’s offense has launched 40
shots in their last two games against Wisconsin and No. 16 Notre Dame. That tally is larger than IU’s previous three games combined. Yeagley, however, doesn’t get too interested in statistics and said Butler’s defense will present difficulties for the younger Hoosiers. “They have some new attacking pieces that are dangerous, it’ll be a tough challenge for us,” he said. Freshman forward Herbert Endeley found his way into the starting 11 for Friday’s Big Ten win and terrorized the Badger defense with his speed. His presence on the right side of the field along with senior defender Simon Waever will give Butler’s attackers
Freedom, the highest American civilian honor. She also holds nine honorary doctorates from academic institutions across the country. The event ended with Huerta leading a chant used in her own protests: “Who’s got the power? We’ve got the power! What kind of power? People power!” plenty to keep an eye on. The Hoosiers are having longer possession times with the ball, setting up their defenders around midfield and their midfielders arked around the goal box. Endeley and the forwards are positioning themselves for right and left cross headers from junior midfielder Spencer Glass’ corner kicks. Although IU don’t always convert on the corner kick opportunities, its play setups and offensive positioning are setting them up for more shots on goal. “We’re going to need the Hoosier army to be strong and hopefully get a great group to make their way to the Butler Bowl,” Yeagley said.

Stevie Scott III, IU rush attack find their footings ALEX DERYN | IDS

IU dominates Connecticut 38-3 By Caleb Coffman calcoffm@iu.edu | @CalCoff
On IU’s second drive of the game, junior quarterback Peyton Ramsey rushed down the University of Connecticut’s sideline before being tackled to the ground. As Ramsey popped back up after the pass, senior left tackle Coy Cronk stayed on the ground writhing in pain. As trainers rushed to Cronk while he lay on the field grabbing his right leg, they immediately waved for the medical cart and put his leg in an air-cast. While sitting on the cart, all the Hoosiers on the bench jogged out onto the field to give their captain words of encouragement as he was driven off to the locker room. “This season now goes out to him,” fifth-year senior Nick Westbrook said. “When we came into the locker room, he was right there cast up in the boot dapping everybody up.” As it would turn out — while being a major loss to IU that will have a lasting effect on its season — Cronk’s injury would be one of the very few low points in the game as the Hoosiers cruised to a 38-3 victory over the Huskies. After stalling on its first drive due to a fumble which led to UConn’s only points of the afternoon, IU scored on five of its next six drives on offense and took complete control of the game. The Hoosiers run game, which has been the biggest head-scratcher for both the coaching staff and fans, looked more similar to last season’s consistent produc-

tion that many expected than what IU has been able to muster in the first three weeks of the season. Sophomore running back Stevie Scott III,rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown against UConn, almost doubling his season total coming into the game. IU head coach Tom Allen came into the game wanting to establish the run and consistently pound the ball on first and second down. “To me, it was just a commitment to keep running the football,” Allen said. “If you run the ball on first and second down and you go for two yards and two yards, then you’re looking at third-andsix. That’s way easier to convert than third-and-ten.”
As a result of committing to the run early and consistently finding themselves in manageable yardage situations, IU didn’t have to force Ramsey to throw the ball deep and allowed him to work comfortably with short and intermediate passes.After a blowout performance a week ago against then-No. 6 Ohio State in which Ramsey completed only 57.6% of his passes and didn’t throw a touchdown, he was able to rebound well against UConn. Ramsey completed 23 of 27 passes for 247 yards, three touchdowns and one interception against the Huskies as he continues to lead the offense in freshman quarterback Michael Penix’s absence. “Peyton was extremely

accurate,” Allen said. “That’s what he does really, really well, so you’ve got to play to his strengths. You want to create those big plays that makes it easier for sure to score in chunks, but at the same time you’ve got to do what your team does well.” The Hoosiers finished their out of conference schedule with a 3-1 record and now are looking to get three more wins during Big Ten play to become bowl eligible for the first time in the Tom Allen era. “Coach DeBoer and Coach Allen both told us to think about who you’re playing for,” Westbrook said. “You play way harder and have a lot more passions, you fight a lot harder when it’s not just about you.”

On sophomore running back Stevie Scott III’s 15th carry in a 38-3 win over the University of Connecticut, he immediately leapt over a tackler at the line of scrimmage before diving past the first down marker. Scott kept the drive alive, took another carry for five more yards and watched fifth-year receiver Nick Westbrook score from 16 yards out to extend the Hoosiers’ lead in the third quarter. Without dual-threat freshman quarterback Michael Penix Jr. for the second straight game, IU used the run game to its advantage like it did last season. “Coming off last week and going into practice, that was something we keyed on the most,” Scott said. “Just getting two-to-three yards each run play and not being tempted for the explosive plays. Take the game slow and everything will come. That’s something we’ve been working on.” In the team’s first two wins of the season, IU had its struggles in the run game, but it was almost nonexistent when then-No. 6 Ohio State beat up on IU, 51-10, last week. In the loss, Scott had just six carries for nine yards. Against Connecticut, Scott and his blockers were relentless after a solid week of practice. “You’ve got to be able to run the ball at this level,” Scott said. The Hoosiers rushed for over 100 yards in both week one and two but couldn’t manage to total 50 yards against the Buckeyes. IU responded and put on its best run display of the season in Saturday’s win. The team ran the ball 40 times for a combined 178 rushing yards, both season highs. “The more carries as the game goes on is just building a rhythm for any running back,” Scott said. “Wearing
down the defense and opening up the passing game, that’s something we like to do.” Scott is coming off a breakout campaign, going for over 1,000 yards as a true freshman as he helped make rushing a staple of the Hoosier offense. This season Scott draws a lot of attention from opposing defenses, which can force IU to throw the ball more. Penix impressed with his arm in his first two collegiate starts, but the Hoosiers have been with junior Peyton Ramsey at quarterback ever since. Though Ramsey couldn’t get much going against Ohio State’s stingy defense, he looked better out of the pocket against Connecticut. Ramsey strolled to his left and right to make a few throws Saturday and evaded pressure in the pocket at times before picking up yardage with his legs. With Ramsey and Scott complimenting each other nicely, IU’s run-pass balance was a matchup nightmare for the Connecticut defense. “To me, it was more of a commitment to make sure we’re just going to keep running that football,” IU head coach Tom Allen said. “That’s just kind of life in the Big Ten, so we’ve got to be able to balance that out and keep people off balance.” IU’s offense had a busy day on the ground with no rushing scores to show for, until Scott got into the end zone late in the game. He found a lane on his left from six yards out and took it in untouched for a touchdown, putting a cap on scoring for the day. A week removed from a crushing home loss, Scott and the Hoosiers are back in the win column. “We just challenged our guys and stuck to the process of what we believe in,” Allen said. “We just have to keep getting better. All we have to do is put all our energy into that one game each week.”

MEN’S SOCCER
No. 4 Hoosiers finally srike first in home win By Sam Bodnar Sbodnar@iu.edu | @sgbod13
As the red smoke spread through the air, fans pounded the crimson and cream wall on the north side of Jerry Yeagley Field. It had to happen at some point. Being a second-half team that wins in overtime would not be the only story for No. 4 IU men’s soccer this season. IU entered Friday’s match against the University of Wisconsin on a string of five consecutive games with no first-half scoring. That all changed in the 10th minute against Wisconsin on Friday. “We wanted to get on the front foot and be the dominant team in the game,” freshman forward Victor Bezerra said. “That was the idea, to go straight in, work harder than them, want it more and get a goal off as soon as we could.” Freshman forward Herbert Endeley, who made his first start of the season, penetrated through the Badger defense and drew a foul in the penalty box. With the opportunity to go up 1-0, IU head coach Todd Yeagley chose Bezerra to take the penalty kick. “Victor has been preparing for the penalties and in this particular game we thought he was the right guy for that, and he went up with confidence,” Yeagley said. Bezerra blasted the ball past Wisconsin’s senior goalkeeper Dean Cowdroy to

set up plays in that first half. A late second-half Wisconsin goal by sophomore forward Matthew Comiskey did anything but deter IU’s offense from propelling forward. “To our guys’ credit, they didn’t get rattled after giving up the lead,” Yeagley said. “I was very pleased with our guys in their response, that was a tough one.” Yeagley’s offense produced nine additional shots in the second half that led to two goals within 12 minutes. Freshman midfielder Aidan Morris set up solid shot opportunities with his short-range corner kicks and serviced fellow freshman defender Daniel Munie for the go-ahead goal in the 79th minute. Following a big time clear out by sophomore defender Jack Maher, freshman forward Maouloune Goumballe took the ball unassisted for a right cross goal into the bottom left corner of the net. The Hoosiers took down the Badgers 3-1 and have now won nine straight regular season games against Big Ten opponents. IU stands 4-0-2 on the season and is 1-0 in Big Ten play. With this being the first game that ended in regulation and the first with three goals, Yeagley said the team treated him well on his 47th birthday. “It was nice to get a regulation win, and I told the guys it was a great birthday present today,” Yeagley said.

The sun sets in front of green leaves Sept. 16 near Sample Gates. The climate strike took place Friday on campus. IU professors, research fellows, faculty and students will gather Friday at the Geology building to discuss climate change.
Capitalism is feeding the climate crisis Bryce Greene is a senior in informatics.
This Friday, students and community activists are organizing a strike in order to protest global inaction on change. The protest will be one of over 2,500 such events across 150 countries with millions of participants. Climate activist Greta Thunberg is the leading voice of Fridays for the Future, a global movement of student activists striking from school every Friday in support of climate action. This Friday’s major actions come three days before the United Nations global summit on climate change. At the conference, nations will discuss their plans for aggressive action to address the emergency. When we demonstrate in favor of climate action, what are we asking for? What are the forces keeping climate action from happening? Look around you. It’s capitalism. When economic power is concentrated in the hands of out-of-touch elites, the public good takes a back seat to profits. Multinational corporations and the politicians in their pockets run a system built to keep the rich satisfied. Rather than advocating for much-needed systemic change, elites have opted for small-minded half measures
to limit structural change to our economy. Republicans are so devoted to climate destruction that observers such as Noam Chomsky describe them as “the most dangerous organization in human history.” The Democratic establishment is led by spineless moderates and self-titled pragmatists who propose small tweaks like a carbon tax; as if a business model designed exclusively around extracting fossil fuels deserves to be preserved a little longer. The entire industry needs to be shut down. Period. That means the global economy will need a complete reorientation. All of this means drastically changing the economic order away from concentrated power and toward greater democracy. None of it is possible without some sort of grassroots political revolution aimed at forcing politicians and corporations to answer to the public. After all, why should we accept when Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi scoffs at the green new deal while she and her associates have taken hundreds of thousands of dollars from fossil fuel companies? Why should we accept a world where Google is investing millions in a new division designed to court the fossil fuel industry? Why should we accept when Amazon’s
board refuses to even consider the company’s effect on climate change? Why should we accept the fact that Chase Bank, one of the largest banks in the world, proudly invests tens of millions into Canadian tar sands? These barriers to addressing the climate crisis are clearly systemic and bigger than just the fossil fuel industry. However, we accept them because it is business as usual. Capital is invested where it can make money — the social consequences be damned. We worship a system that puts decision making in the hands of a wealthy few in order to enrich themselves. The rest of us are either marginalized into participating in political spectacles or disheartened into nihilistic apathy. The climate scientists understand that this state of affairs is untenable. Our politics can no longer be horse races driven by arcane and privileged notions of electability. The public can no longer leave this fight to a technocratic elite who is devoted to private power. A political revolution must give the public agency over the world it lives in. There is only one thing capable of forcing giant multinational corporations to answer to the public good: the federal government. We must take our government
back from those who would condemn the world to death so they can have a few decades of high shareholder value. Candidates who are not in favor of bold new policies to combat climate change should not be taken at all seriously. Bernie Sanders’ Green New Deal is a necessary step in the right direction. Americans need to take control over energy production rather than allowing the criminals in the extraction industry to continue. Anything less than that is a joke. There is no moderate, market-based or centrist solution to this crisis. The world will be full of millions of climate refugees, droughts and resource wars as the global “have-nots” sink into oblivion followed shortly by the “haves” who sat in complicit silence. The Pelosis and the fossil fuel executives of the world hear this and ignore it in favor of business as usual. So when we demonstrate, we are rejecting the legitimacy of the reign of elites and corporations. We are dismissing the doubts of the pundits who cower within the Washington establishment consensus. The fight for a new green world is a radical fight, and if we choose to deny that fact, we choose catastrophe. greenebj@iu.edu
Curly, straight, long or short. However you wear it, it is likely these threadlike strands on your head do much more than protect your scalp or regulate the temperature of your head. It is often deeper than a ponytail or a cute curly cut. Hair creates a cultural identity for many. Yet, some are shamed for expressing themselves with their hairstyles. Hair discrimination is not a new phenomenon. It typically targets black people, with thick, afro textured hair. This dates back to the Atlantic slave trade when Africans were forcefully brought over to America. Once they arrived, owners shaved slaves heads as a way to strip them from any sense of social and cultural identity. Once their hair grew back, many women were forced to wear a headwrap. According to The Perception Institute, “good hair” is a term used to describe wavy, straight and soft hair. Typically, those are Eurocentric characteristics. This stereotype creates the idea that any different hair type is “bad.” Every hair type should be celebrated. Everyone has a beautiful blend of different textures, patterns and colors that make them unique. In 2016, The Perception Institute researched bias and discrimination towards natural hair of black women. The organization measured the bias of both black and white women. The survey found that white women rate black textures hair as less beautiful and professional. Additionally black women have a social stigma against textured hair, because of the white women’s devaluation of textured hair. While the survey specifically assessed white women, it is likely white men contribute to the stigma. The survey also addressed social implications with hair. For example, twice as many black women feel pressure to straighten their hair than white women. These social implica-
tions have affected women and girls in professional places time and time again, even to the point of punishment. In 2018, an 11-year-old Louisiana student was sent home from school because her hair extensions broke a rule. The schools had a policy preventing extensions, clip ins and weaves. In a Facebook post, the girl’s brother said the extensions make her natural hair easier to maintain. Schools are not the only places where this social discrimination is occurring. Earlier this year, journalist Brittany Noble was reportedly fired as a result of workplace discrimination. According to a post to her Instagram, Noble was told her natural hair was unprofessional. In a personal anecdote Noble said coworkers asked questions such as: “Why doesn’t your hair lay flat?” In 2010, Chasity Jones went to a job interview for a call center. She arrived at the interview with short, natural dreadlocks. Shortly after, an HR manager said she couldn’t wear her in dreads to work because they “tend to get messy.” Some states have made progressive steps in addressing the issue of hair discrimination. This summer, California governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill banning racial discrimination based on hairstyle. The law works to protect hairstyle laws that disproportionately affect people of color. The CROWN Act has a meaning that reflects the name: creating a respectful and open workplace for natural hair. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed a similar bill into law. The bill amends sections of the Human Rights Law and Dignity for All Students Act to include protection of “traits historically associated with race, including but not limited to hair texture and protective hairstyles.” These bills are positive steps towards creating change, but more states need to follow suit. We must ensure people are not discriminated against for embodying their culture or natural self through hair. jaraferg@iu.edu
JONAH’S JUSTIFICATIONS
To combat climate change, we must nationalize the energy sector Jonah Hyatt is a junior in political science and philosophy.
The corporate democracy, which is the United States, has been under the control of a very small group of private corporations for far too long. Oil, gas, coal, electricity and water are all controlled by a small oligopoly of privately-owned companies, many of whom have such a firm grasp on regional markets where they near a monopoly, especially when it comes to water and electricity. Public necessities such as electricity and water should not be for-profit. Neither should be the corrupt fossil fuel industry which consistently puts public safety at risk through resisting climate change reform by sowing doubt in the public discourse. The incentive structure of the privately owned fossil fuel industry encourages promoting phony “research” which denies climate change. They also incessantly
lobby congress and donate campaign contributions to politicians to block climate change reform or halt the debate on the issue by giving off the perception that climate change evidence is inconclusive. Americans need to tackle the climate crisis immediately and the most effective way is to democratically restructure the energy sector of the economy as public utilities, so Americans are no longer at the behest of corporate oligarchs. There are several ways the U.S. government could go about gaining control over these industries, but one of the most effective would be through quantitative easing. This includes compulsorily buying the majority stake in America’s top energy companies. Writers at The Democracy Collaborative estimated a $1.15 trillion price tag of buying the majority stake in the 25 largest US-based publicly traded oil and gas companies, along with most of the remaining publicly traded coal companies.
Control over the shares could go to a social energy fund which fights for compliance with decarbonization goals and promotes publicly owned renewable energy firms. Full energy nationalization is the goal but due to the Fifth Amendment’s takings clause, private property cannot be taken for public use without just compensation. H o w e v e r,
economists by and large agree the nationalization of energy companies does not have any direct effect on the government’s balance sheet due to the acquisition of public assets. The energy transition would provide a stopgap until the public energy sector begins to pay dividends, no longer forcing the government to use subsidies
and tax incentives for large fossil fuel companies. The most important aspect of nationalizing the energy sector is going to be democratically restructuring the system so it is under the control of workers and not simply top-down through authoritative government mandates — a government which is also largely bought and owned by large energy and fossil fuel companies. Nationalization of energy companies would entail workers democratically electing supervisors and determining safety and working conditions. A national oversight board comprised of representatives of regional energy committees as well as workers in other industries affected by energy policy would oversee directing and enforcing regulation of environmentally safe policies that promote a new green energy sector. There would certainly be job loss in the fossil fuel industry as the country begins
decarbonizing, but unionrun retraining for green energy jobs coupled with support from the welfare state for those whose jobs have been displaced will provide the most support for a smooth transition to renewable energy. Democratic control over the entire energy sector may have a hefty price tag, but it would certainly be worth doing so, because the cost of ignoring climate change could be far more devastating and costly. Privatization of natural resources and energy production has only proven to be a direct obstacle to climate change reform and is fundamentally anticonsumer through the near monopolization of the marketplace. Without immediate action on taking down the private energy behemoths, our country may make little to no effort on climate change reform, which will have deadly consequences. hyattj@iu.edu

Comedic opera ‘Le Nozze di Figaro’ takes Jacobs stage By Helen Rummel hrummel@iu.edu
"Le Nozze di Figaro," a comedic opera composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1786, is based upon the second of three plays written by French playwright Pierre Beaumarchais. While the musical compositions are works from Mozart, the libretto, or lyrics, are written by Italian librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte. The opera is conducted by Antony Walker and directed by Michael Shell. Beaumarchais’ trilogy of plays focuses on Figaro, a servant and groom-to-be. "Le Nozze di Figaro," translated in English to The Marriage of Figaro, recounts the events leading up to Figaro’s marriage to Susanna. While the opera originates from the 18th century, Shell explained how he feels that it maintains a sense of timeliness hundreds of years later. “I think what’s interesting is that no matter how old the piece is, there are unfortunate parallels to what we still have today,” Shell said. “Love is universal, and the various relationships that are shown sort of exemplify the things that we see every day.” "Le Nozze di Figaro" delves into themes of fidelity and infatuation. Susanna’s character, Figaro’s fiance, is played by graduate students Tiffany Choe and Kate Johnson due to the show’s double casting. Choe shared how Mozart’s depiction of Susanna’s strength was noteworthy within the context of the time period. “You don’t see it much in operas, but Mozart has a way of doing that,” Choe said. “It’s very ahead of its time.” Director Shell additionally noted how "Figaro"
handles the topic of class structure, sharing the influences that historical context had on the opera following its inception. The French Revolution, which began in 1789, emphasized a new ideology regarding class and wealth that Shell believes applies to both the opera and popular culture. “We still have that issue today,” Shell said. “When we look celebrities or people with money we assume that they’re on a higher level than us, but in fact, the only difference between us and them is money and privilege.” Shell explained that the art of opera can at times be seen as an elevated art form, but stressed how his goal as a director is to be as transparent as possible for the audience. “I really like delving into the relationships and seeing how truthful you can make them, so that when people come they can recognize that and not distance themselves even if it is in a foreign language,” Shell said. The opera is performed in Italian, as written by Mozart, however the IU opera and ballet theater production includes English subtitles to accommodate to the audience members. However, Shell underscores the effect of the acting in and of itself. This is why he often avoids the use of director’s notes. “If someone comes and wishes that they had read something before then I feel like I haven’t done my job,” Shell said. “You should be able to come and see any of my shows and enjoy it based on what you see.” In addition to the direction of the opera, the orchestra performing will consist of a variety of graduate and undergraduate students and have prepared compositions
that Shell explained are vital for the comedic aspect of the opera. “The music is consistently very lighthearted,” cellist and undergraduate student Michael Tines said. “It’s not very heavy and usually very dance-like.” In comparison to other university opera schedules of six to eight weeks, IU runs on a more brief schedule. Rehearsals began at the start of the semester, giving the cast about a month to prepare. Doctoral student Aaron Murphy, who plays Count Almaviva, finds the task of mastering the libretto most time-consuming in that time period. “The hardest thing to get done is recitative, what would be considered the dialogue in a play, because it is in a language that most of us do not speak,” Murphy said.

The opera opened at 7:30 p.m. last Friday at the Musical Arts Center. Left Graduate student Kate Johnson, playing the role of Susanna, and graduate student Grace Skinner, playing the role of Cherubino, perform in “Le Nozze di Figaro” on Sept. 17 during a dress rehearsal at the Musical Arts Center.
“It’s very hard to (practice) that on your own without having the other person’s voice to respond.” Murphy’s counterpart, who plays the Count on alternating nights, master’s student Ian Rucker shared that the shorter schedule gives students a more realistic sense of the schedule of a professional actor. “In the professional
world, you just need to know what you’re doing and do your work because it doesn’t matter if you’re the best singer in the world,” Rucker said. “What really matters is if you are prepared.” "Le Nozze di Figaro" premiered on Sept. 20 followed by shows on Sept. 21, 27 and 28, all beginning at 7:30 p.m in the Musical Arts Center. Ticket prices range from
$10 to $28 for students and $16 to $43 for adults. Shells and the cast lastly shared their hopes that this opera can be accessible to all who wish to attend. “It’s a lot like a play,” Choe said. “It’s very fastpaced and that’s what makes it so entertaining. I think it would be a good first opera for a lot of people.”
