State sets policies to combat sex trade By Daniel Metz dsmetz@indiana.edu | @DanielSMetz
With the NCAA Final Four being played in Indianapolis this weekend, state officials implemented a number of measures last week to curb the growing sex trafficking problem in Indiana. Thursday, Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller announced the launch of the “Indiana’s Not Buying It” campaign, which aims to spread awareness and information about sex and human trafficking. “The violent, exploitive sex trade that victimizes far too many children will not end unless we stand up as a society and refuse to tolerate commercial sex,” Zoeller said in a press release. “This campaign is a message to men who purchase sex that we are no longer buying any excuses.” According to the campaign, human trafficking occurs when people are recruited into the sex or labor trade through force, fraud or coercion or when a child is used for commercial sex. Indiana was the third state to implement a “Not Buying It” campaign, after Arizona and Georgia. The campaigns are sponsored by the Georgiabased human trafficking prevention group called StreetGrace. The campaign featured a series of public service announcements by Indianapolis professional athletes. The ads were publicized on a series of 35 billboards throughout the state and on various public transit systems. Additionally, fliers detailing resources for victims of human trafficking were distributed at truck stops, rest areas and taxi cab services. Last year, the United States State
IU is now 2-6 in the Big Ten and sits in 10th place, not good enough to make the Big Ten Tournament By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu | @MichaelHughes94
It was the culmination of a frustrating weekend. Senior outfielder Will Nolden had just taken a fastball on the outside corner for strike three and was bent over at the waist with his hands and bat on his knees. He would eventually rise and walk slowly back to the dugout, muttering to himself under his breath as he sulked. Three batters later, sophomore Craig Dedelow swung at a ball in the dirt to finalize IU’s 4-3 loss Sunday against Michigan. Michigan (18-13, 4-5) won two out of three games this weekend against IU (18-10, 2-6), who lost a series for the first time at Bart Kaufman Field since its construction in 2013. IU lost the first game of a Saturday doubleheader against the Wolverines 7-3 before taking the nightcap 13-11. “We just couldn’t get the last hit,” IU Coach Chris Lemonis said Sunday. “We’d get some guys out there and the strikeout killed us.” IU struck out 11 times Sunday, three of them with a runner in scoring position. It wasn’t as if IU didn’t see good pitches to hit. In the bottom of the third, freshman outfielder Logan Sowers was at the plate with runners on first and second and two outs. He worked the count to two balls and one strike, meaning Michigan starting pitcher Brett Adcock was likely to throw a fastball. He threw a fastball over the middle of the plate, but Sowers could only foul it back to the backstop. The next pitch, Sowers watched a fastball cruise by on the inner half of the strike zone for strike three to end the inning. Lemonis said he felt like his guys were a hair off at the plate the entire game.

Chris Lemonis, IU Coach More on the loss, page 8 Sophomore outfielder Craig Dedelow tallied four extra-base hits for the Hoosiers this weekend. He’s improved in his second college season. “He was hiding the ball well and he had kind of a hop in his motion that throws off the hitter a little bit,” Dedelow said. IU saw Adcock’s hop a lot — 106 times. But for the most part, IU was offkilter the entire game. Then, in the seventh inning, Carmen Benedetti replaced Adcock. IU managed a run against the new pitcher, but only after Michigan second baseman Eric Jacobson let a ball get by him into the outfield. IU forced Benedetti to throw 26 pitches in the seventh inning, working the count full three times, but could only manage the one run. Frustration grew for everyone Sunday in Bart Kaufman Field. After seemingly any call that didn’t go the Hoosiers’ way, fans would rise from their seats and start barking at the umpire. If a questionable strike was called against an IU batter, he would turn back in disgust or take a few steps away from the plate to calm down. After one such occasion in the SEE BASEBALL, PAGE 6

Calligraphy club celebrates spring, Chinese culture By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu
The Chinese Calligraphy Club introduced Chinese culture to a crowded room of people at Friday’s Huazhao Festival. The event, which was held at the Mathers Museum, was an exhibition of an ancient Chinese flower festival that celebrates the spring. The event featured a variety of interactive activities. As people went from table to table, they participated in various forms of Chinese art, such as calligraphy, painting and paper crafts. Attendees could sample cakes and flower teas, play games and listen to performances of traditional Chinese music. Sarah Hatcher, head of education and programs at the Mathers Museum, said the Huazhao Festival has been held in the past at IU, but this was the first year it was held at the Mathers Museum. The museum serves as a “gateway between the campus and the community,” she
said, and as a result, a large group of all ages attended the event. Qindan Nie, member of the Chinese Calligraphy Club, said she was pleased with the outcome of the event. “It’s been the most successful event we’ve ever had,” Nie said. “We’ve never had so many people.” Zeying Yang, a Chinese Calligraphy Club member, taught participants how to write some of the basic brush strokes of calligraphy. She said the opportunity to perform Chinese calligraphy has been a beneficial experience as an international student on campus because it has allowed her to interact with other people of the Chinese culture and teach others about the art form. “Calligraphy is a really beautiful art,” Yang said. “We want more people to know it.” Sophomore Mary Van Spankeren had to experience an event from a different culture for a class assignment, and she chose the

In the last assembly meeting of the semester, the IU Graduate and Professional Student Organization broke a record. Representatives passed three resolutions, putting this year’s total at 13 pieces of legislation, the most pieces of resolution passed in a single year. The GPSO passed a resolution in support of IU President Michael McRobbie’s reaffirmation of IU’s commitment to serve persons “without regard to their age, race, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, marital status, national origin, religion, sexual orientation or veteran status” that came after the passage of Senate Bill 101. “It essentially just says that we agree with the president, we support him in his message about RFRA and we want to restate our commitment to nondiscrimination on behalf of GPSO,” GPSO President Brady Harman said. The group also passed a resolution calling for changes in the rape alert emails sent by the IU Police Department. The resolution calls for the removal of the phrase “rape by force.” “The use of ‘rape by force’ suggests that there are different kinds of rape, and what we probably should be focusing on instead is that there are different kinds of force,” said Shadia Siliman, a graduate research assistant at the Kinsey Institute. “This suggests that there is rape that happens without force being involved.” The resolution also calls for the replacement of the current safety tips with gender-neutral bystander intervention tips. “We think that bystander tips would be more effective because you hear something happening and you SEE GPSO, PAGE 6

Professors weigh in on nuclear deal By Suzanne Grossman spgrossm@indiana.edu @suzannepaige6
Relations between IU and Iran may soon be changing because of recent negotiations on nuclear technology between the United States, the European Union and Iran last week. Last Thursday, negotiators met in Switzerland to discuss nuclear adChoksy vancements and came to a detailed agreement looking to be finalized by the end of June. The Istrabadi document outlines a reduction in sanctions against Iran in return for a decrease of nuclear weapon development in Iran. IU distinguished professor in history, Central Eurasian studies, and Middle Eastern and Islamic studies Jamsheed Choksy said he believes this agreement will benefit the U.S. in the long run if it’s eventually signed and implemented. “It will progress
normalizing relations with Iran,” Choksy said. “For one, international tensions would deescalate and tensions between the U.S. and Iran will deescalate. For two, people will be able to work together more closely.” One thing Choksy expects to happen if the agreement is finalized is more partnerships through academia. Previously, IU-Purdue University Indianapolis and Iran had an engineering partnership. Iran sent undergraduates in engineering to IUPUI to study for two years, and they then studied for two more years in Iran to complete school with a joint degree from IUPUI and their school in Iran. With the new agreement, more programs like this will likely exist at IU, Choksy said. “If this works out, what this means is Iranian students, undergraduate and graduate, could come to IU, and IU students could end up going to Iran,” Choksy said. He also said there is benefit for those who might not plan to go to Iran. “For those that never go, nonetheless, they would have contact with people from that country,” Choksy
said. “The intellectual, personal and cultural horizons of IU students would increase. Also, one never knows where one’s future is going to take them.” Though it’s hard to say exactly what caused international forces to make an agreement with Iran, Choksy proposes it was all parties being willing to work together and not wanting further tension. He also said both American and Iranian public opinion polls show the public no longer wants to go to war over this issue and the majorities in both countries want there to be good relations between both countries again. This public pressure has caused politicians to move, Choksy said. The agreement is not set in stone at this moment, but the outline is extensively detailed and both Iranian President Ali Khamenei and President Obama have publicly stated they will fulfill their end of the deal, Choksy said. “The situation is more hopeful than it has ever been before,” Choksy said. Professor of international law and diplomacy at the IU Maurer School of Law and in the School of Global and
International Studies Feisal Istrabadi said he agrees this move is positive, but caution should still be used. “A deal that substantially impairs Iran’s ability to build nuclear weapons is in the interests of the entire international community,” Istrabadi said in an IU press release. “It appears that the negotiators are headed in that direction. As a matter of U.S.-Iran relations, any improvement and deescalation of tensions between the U.S. and Iran is positive. Still, we have yet to see the details of a final agreement, so caution is appropriate.” Choksy said he encourages IU students and staff to become more informed on the issue by staying on top of the news, but also by studying Iranian politics and culture. He said with Iran being an important political country in terms of resources and location, it will be to IU’s best interests to extend relations. “IU has contacts all over the world and has been branching out,” Choksy said. “I certainly see IU taking advantage of this to the maximum and best impact for faculty and students to establish intellectual and educational relationships with Iran.”
Student created app wins competition By Alison Graham akgraham@indiana.edu @AlisonGraham218
An IU-based startup was announced as one of the winners of the Clapp Idea Competition on Friday at the Kelley School of Business. GreekRide, an app that helps greek organizations coordinate sober rides, was awarded $5,000 and space in the Hoosier Hatchery at the business school. The app was created and developed by IU students Liam Bolling, Martin Aguinis and Ben Gavette last year. For the past year, they have been developing and improving their system. They launched the first version of the app last semester and the final product a few weeks ago. Bolling, Aguinis and Gavette have experienced the difficulty of getting safe rides
to and from greek events in the past, which served as the inspiration for their app. Greek drivers usually have their numbers texted to people, which are often forwarded all over campus in a matter of hours, Aguinis said. In addition to taking texts and calls all night from people they don’t know, many times these drivers have no idea who they are picking up or how long it will take for them to get there. Riders have no confirmation that the person they talked to on the phone is the person who is picking them up. These factors made the system unsafe for both riders and drivers, so the three IU students decided to build an app around the system that already exists, streamlining it and creating a safer way to get sober rides for greek students.

Alok Vaid-Menon walked on stage wearing a bright blue dress and platform shoes with his colleague Janani Balasubramanian, who wore tight brown skinny jeans and a patterned button-up. Both had matching bright blue lipstick and immediately started performing. Saturday night, the poetry duo Darkmatter, comprised of Balasubramanian and Vaid-Menon, spoke at the Indiana Memorial Union as part of the duo’s “#ItGetsBitter” 2015 tour. They presented poems about transgender youth, American politics and sexual identity. “Once a white woman asked me where I was from, no, where I was really from,” Balasubramanian said. “Then she told me she was going to India for her nonprofit that year. Oh, tell me more. Take me with you.” The duo is based in New York City and plays soldout venues like the Asian American Writer’s Workshop and La MaMa Experimental Theater, IU Student Association spokesperson Aghilah Nadaraj said. The show started with an introductory act of poetry written and performed by Chris Redding. Redding is a 22-year-old senior at IU studying telecommunications. Redding also raps and acts. Redding recited poetry about social, college and relationship issues.
“You don’t know where you’re going unless you know where you came from.” Chris Redding, IU senior and poet
He reflected on time with his grandfather, who inspired some of his poetry. His grandfather is always talking, Redding said. “He’s talking and you miss the highlight play of the night,” Redding said. “One thing he always said that sticks out to me is, ‘When I was born, I wasn’t a full human being. I was half a man. I was born as half a man when all this stuff (civil rights) was going on. So, I was Mr. Black Nationalism.’ So that got me thinking. You don’t know where you’re going unless you know where you came from.” The poem that followed spoke about black social issues and black pride. Darkmatter took to the stage next, starting with a poem about coming out to traditional South Asian families. “When I pierced my nose and told my grandmother that I am no longer a boy, no longer marriage, no longer patriarchy, she tells me that I am a disgrace to our family,” Vaid-Menon said in his poem. “That I let the white man inside of me when he bit my tongue. And I am sorry, sorry, sorry, broken phone call.” Darkmatter’s other SEE POETS, PAGE 3
Chemistry professor wins Waterman professorship From IDS reports
IU announced Friday chemist Amar Flood will host the second Luther Dana Waterman Professorship. Flood is currently an associate professor of chemistry at IU. The Waterman Professorship was first started in 1915 when Dana Waterman donated a large gift from his estate to support scientific research, according to a University press release. The first Waterman Professorship was awarded to Arthur L. Foley, a physics professor at IU, in 1917. Richard Shiffrin, a professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, currently holds the Waterman Professorship, a new professorship based on the Waterman endowment that was established specifically for scientists early in their career. The Waterman endowment is connected to various disciplines including mathematics, zoology, geology and botany. “Professor Flood has an outstanding research record as well as international
recognition for his work,” Interim Vice Provost for Research Rick Van Kooten said in the release. “I have no doubt that he will put his time as a Luther Dana Waterman Professor to excellent use as he builds collaborations to explore new areas of research.” Flood’s research focuses on supramolecular chemistry and has studied cyclic and symmetrical molecules. His research team’s molecules are able to bind with negatively charged anions, which could have environmental and medical applications. “I am deeply honored to receive the Waterman Professorship because it recognizes the activities of my entire group,” Flood said. “The research we conduct is the result of collaboration between graduate students, postdoctoral co-workers and myself. I am also appreciative because it allows me to actively explore new research directions concerning the role of chloride in human biology with partners here on the Bloomington campus.” Alison Graham

Hundreds compete in games By Julie Masterson julmaste@indiana.edu
One IU gaming club attracted more than 100 attendants to its Super Smash Bros. tournament this weekend. Not only was it the University’s first Smash tournament, it was also one of the largest Indiana has seen in a while. The student gaming club, IUB Smash, put on its first Midwest regional Super Smash Bros. Melee and Project M conference, “Full Bloom I,” on Saturday. Between 10 a.m. and 10 p.m., contestants from around the region gathered in the Frangipani Room at the Indiana Memorial Union to compete for cash prizes. The event lineup included
singles and doubles matches, which could be entered in for a small fee. The club also livestreamed the matches through their Twitch page, providing fans and followers with access to tournament highlights, as well as a live chat forum for discussion. Second-year doctoral student Louie Limas co-founded IUB Smash as a means of escape from the grind of working on his Ph.D. “Social media has been very helpful,” Limas said. “Additionally, we have networked with the neighboring scenes such as Purdue and Indianapolis.” Beginning with less than 20 members in fall 2013, the club has increased its membership to 273, outnumbering many of the other IU-
associated gaming groups. “Our Facebook group has grown so much over the past year that it seemed like the logical next step to get our scene more attention,” Limas said. “Also, IU-Bloomington has never held a big (Smash) tournament.” Limas said one of the most rewarding aspects of hosting an event like “Full Bloom I” is getting to meet players from neighboring communities and states that otherwise wouldn’t be possible. Focusing exclusively on Super Smash Bros. Melee and Project Melee, IUB Smash hosts biweekly meetings consisting of gameplay, discussion and free tournaments.

BIWEEKLIES Noon - 9 p.m. Wilkie Formal Lounge events, IUB Smash’s biweeklies attract gamers from all corners of Indiana. “It is very competitive and the community is very welcoming,” Limas said. “There is a lot of room to grow and get better.” Meetings include practice sessions, also known as “friendlies,” which serve as educational opportunities to encourage new players to develop their skills. “IUB Smash is the most welcoming, fun group of gamers you will ever find,” Limas said. The schedule can be found on the club’s Facebook and Smashboards pages.
points of discussion included reproductive rights. Reproductive rights have traditionally been about women’s bodies, but Balasubramanian said that actually isn’t true — they’re about everyone’s bodies. “It’s particularly about different racialized people’s bodies because our bodies have always been seen as a threat if we’re having too many children, and we’re always seen as having too many children,” Balasubramanian said. Darian Tanner is a senior at IU and is an active member in the Sigma Lambda Gamma sorority. Tanner said she went just to see her friend, Redding, perform, but Darkmatter pulled her in and made her stay. She said she wanted to support Redding at the show. “I am familiar with the LGBTQ community on campus, but I had never seen any poetry from them,”
he said. After those initial pitches, the panel narrowed the finalists down to six teams. Those teams were then asked to give a five-minute presentation and answer questions from the panel judges and audience members. In the end, GreekRide and Sprouts Products from Babson College were selected as winners, splitting the $10,000 prize money. With their share of the money, GreekRide plans to expand their services to other colleges. Other greek systems have reached out to the company and asked to be signed up for the program. Aguinis said they could support about 20 other universities with their current system, but with the prize money, they can expand their servers and increase their user base. To learn more about GreekRide and their services, follow them on Twitter @ GreekRide or visit GreekRide. com. she said. “I am a poet, so to hear their issues with that frame was informative and refreshing.” Toward the end of the performance, Darkmatter’s Vaid-Menon began reciting a poem about becoming politicized after 9/11 and the stigma that followed. “That day you woke up and found that you were afraid of yourself, too,” VaidMenon said. “At lunch, your white classmate asks you why your people did this to us. And you point to your shirt, and you point to your flag and you point to your god, but these are things that no longer belong to you and for the first time in your life you feel ‘We are not them,’ we are feel ‘We are not Muslim, ‘We are feel ‘brown.’” The Darkmatter “#ItGetsBitter” tour stop at IU was put on by IUSA, the IU Feminist Student Association, the Indian Student Association IU and the CommUNITY Education Program. The event also hosted a clothing drive for transgender youth in Bloomington.

Unnecessary leverage Imagine if you could locate the names and addresses of anyone who disagrees with a belief you hold, then used that personal information against them. Imagine no more. Late last week, an app called Gunfree Geo Marker made its debut in the Google Play Store. It created such a stir that it’s already been removed twice. When it was available, the app opened a map of your local area that pinpoints the homes of anyone with a vocal history of speaking out against gun violence. When the app was active, there was an important address prominently listed: Brett Stalbaum’s home and work address. This app is definitely odd, but it was actually created in response to another app that hit the Google Play Store in 2013, Gun Geo Marker. Brett Stalbaum launched Gun Geo Marker with community safety in mind, allowing people to geolocate sites that may be associated with unsafe and/or irresponsible gun use, according to the app’s website. Stalbaum goes on to emphasize that only the “(minimal) extra information for others to make their own contextual determinations about safety” is necessary to effectively utilize the app. Defending the opposing app, the creator of Gunfree Geo Marker (who seemingly isn’t comfortable with disclosing his name, for whatever reason) said all the info in his app is public information, and “(the targets) have made themselves well-known in this debate. (The nutjobs) would have already had this data.” While it is true vocal opponents and proponents alike, of any social issue, may bring public attention to themselves through their expressions, claiming the “nutjobs” would already have this data is insulting. By culling the data and providing a format, not only

is accessibility way less of an issue, but it may, intentionally or not, endorse intimidation. It’s obvious that both sides of the debate consider it wrong to use personal information as a weapon, unless they’re the ones doing it. The only reason it’s easy for me to take sides in this app war is because of intended uses for each. Gun Geo Marker was designed with community safety in mind to identify those who may not have the cleanest record when it comes to gun violence because in most cases, there’s no national mandate on registering firearms. Gunfree Geo Marker was designed, explicitly, as a response to Gun Geo Marker. Naturally, it only takes a few “nutjobs” from either side of the debate to escalate this data warfare into a dire, life-or-death situation. These kinds of apps endorse doxing, a coined phrase for posting people’s personal information, which is a very dangerous precedent to set. There are plenty of people who are simply afraid of guns and what they’re capable of — all they seek is distance from those who embrace them, not to badger them. It’s my hope that this pissing contest goes away sans incident. But that won’t happen unless two things occur first: gun rights advocates have to understand that there really are gun owners out there who probably shouldn’t own a gun, and gun control advocates who don’t own guns have to accept that responsible gun owners certainly exist. michoman@indiana.edu
WUNDERFUL
Right to refuse dishonest sperm donor A couple from Port Hope, Canada is suing their sperm donor after finding out he had schizophrenia and a criminal record. Though no one should be discriminated based on their biological makeup, the couple has every reason to be upset. Angela Collins and Margaret Elizabeth Hanson were originally told by their sperm bank, Xytex Corporation, that their chosen sperm donor was a healthy student in neuroscience engineering working toward a Ph.D. with an IQ of 160. In 2007, the couple happily welcomed the birth of their son. Through the years, they remained in contact with the staff at Xytex. But in 2014, Collins and Hanson received emails revealing the identity of their sperm donor. They soon got in touch with other families that used the same sperm donor. Together, they discovered through Facebook and YouTube that the donor, James Christian Aggeles, was not the high-IQ, Ph.D. student that Xytex had described. Instead, Aggeles was a college dropout, diagnosed with schizophrenia and had been arrested for burglary. This discovery led Collins and Hanson to file a lawsuit against Xytex on multiple counts. They also wanted further compensation for their son’s future medical care. I think this is a brave and reasonable request, given the unfortunate circumstances. The realization of a lie about the sperm donor would put any parent in an awkward position — although a person loves his or her child, the child also isn’t particularly what this person bargained for. While on one hand it

Hate us ‘cause they ain’t us WE SAY: Let us millennials live our lives, Gen X “We did what we did so that you can have a better life,” says every parent to his or her child today. If we categorize staring at our phones 75 percent of the time and eating and sleeping the other 25 percent as a “better life,” then boy, we have it made. Baby Boomers and Generation X hold some resentment when it comes to the millennial generation. Our gadgets and machines are too much to handle, and we’re incompetent and languid. So what? This is why our elders hate our guts: Snapchat. The most important millennial question has become, “to selfie, or not to selfie?” If we want to know the weather, we don’t look at the Weather app like a normal person. Instead, we find out what the temperature is by taking a selfie on Snapchat. This might be why we can never dress for the weather properly. Also, it’s devastating when you go through a tough breakup and your ex decides to post all the nudes he screen-shotted of you. “Pics or it didn’t happen!” We like to get FUBAR and we’re in love with the coco. ‘Nuff said. Stemming off from that, we also love
to create acronyms. It’s almost like the millennial generation has a code language which is kind of awesome in our eyes, but irritating to the teacher we’re calling a “dilf.” But when our phones autocorrect “girl” to “GUUURL,” we might need to re-evaluate our lives. We don’t know how to use maps. Our reliance on our phones is obscene. We also don’t know how to change tires, sew or clean the gobs of hair out of the drain. Sooner or later we’re not going to know how to listen because our hearing won’t work because of our ever-present headphones that live in our ears. We’re lazy couch potatoes who can’t sit up straight and we live vicariously through other people’s Instagram photos. We are the visual generation of scrolling, clicking and screen-shotting our lives. We don’t read the newspaper or paperback books. Why read “The Great Gatsby” when you can simply illegally stream it online for free? According to our doctors and our prescriptions, we all have ADD. We are the ultimate multitaskers because we can’t focus or concentrate on a single thing. During Hulu commercial breaks
we decide to binge-watch Netflix just for the hell of it. Brunch is the most important meal of the day. The name of the game is mimosas and bloody mary’s. Whether you call it a buddy or a sandwich, the bacon, egg and cheese is what helps us thrive on a day-to-day basis. The BEC comes along with copious amounts of caffeine — Coke or coffee, whichever you prefer. We don’t get “old people things,” like dial-up Internet access. When teachers make references to Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch it goes right over our heads. We can’t hold a good conversation. This might be why we never go on dates, make phone calls or speak with our classmates. At restaurants, families sit at a table and don’t say a single thing. One kid’s on Facebook, the other’s got his Nintendo on hand and the parents are answering work emails. The most words spoken are to the waiter when they ask for more bread. All in all, we’re a pretty diverse generation with a few redeeming qualities. The truth is, we literally cannot even. And we’re OK with that.
QUE SARAH, SARAH seems justified to be upset for being lied to and deceived, on the other, it shouldn’t make one love his or her child any less. This awkward contradiction between love for one’s child and one’s own biological expectations for a child makes the deception from the sperm bank an easy thing to sweep under the rug. After all, once the child’s been born, the parents are committed to loving their child. If so, then it shouldn’t matter whether the sperm donor was a high-IQ Ph.D. student or not. People love their children for who they are, which includes their biological composition. Our conception of parental love would easily make the background of the sperm donor a dismissible question. However, this is obviously something that should not be dismissed. In choosing sperm donors and choosing to raise a child, parents should have a right to make an informed decision. Not only would their choice drastically affect their own lives, it would also affect the life of their child-to-be. If their child is genetically predisposed to conditions that would require additional medical attention, they should have a right to know. They should not let the ideals of unconditional love and support undermine their right to choose for themselves and the family they want. nywu@indiana.edu
RFRA legislation is not a reflection of Hoosiers It’s no secret that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act has created an uproar of opposition and gained national attention. In the days between the bill’s passing the legislature and crossing Gov. Mike Pence’s desk, my news feed was awash in opinions, shared articles declaring embarrassment to be a Hoosier when such backwardness was possible. Then, the boycotts started rolling in: first San Francisco announced its abstinence of travel to Indiana, then the whole state of Connecticut. Celebrities and interest groups tweeted at Pence to notify him of their refusal to participate in events in a state that is so eager to openly discriminate. What’s most frustrating about the situation is that we so clearly aren’t.
I do not believe Indiana residents are hateful or backward. Sure, there are pockets of extreme conservatism that can be characterized that way in the typical pattern of a heartland Midwestern region. The extreme outrage is certainly evidence that Hoosiers resent Pence deeply for invoking this ugly, false stereotype upon us. In fact, Indiana citizens have opposed RFRA so passionately and vocally that Pence was forced to clarify its intention on several major news sources and eventually demand a fix to the bill that will limit the scope of its oppression. Hoosiers aren’t archaic or intolerant. We’re not chomping at the bit to throw LGBTQ+ individuals out of our establishments and marginalize them in the name of religious freedom. We do, however, deserve the na-
tion’s scorn. America is accusing Indiana of the wrong crime; rather than punishing us for being discriminatory, condemn us for being uninformed and lazy. A popular link to circulate was a petition to recall Pence. Thankfully, my high school history teacher gave Facebook a quick civics lesson and reminded all the embarrassed Hoosiers that we do not recall governors in Indiana. What we do have, he pointed out, are elections — processes that are theoretically designed to engage the public in the selection process for state leaders and allow us the opportunity to be represented correctly by our officials. Theoretically. In 2014, only 13 percent of eligible voters in Indiana made it to the polls during the primary elections, where many would assert the deci-

sions are truly made. 13 percent isn’t even close to half, let alone a majority, which means that the bulk of Indiana — the compassionate, tolerant, hospitable people I know — aren’t the ones choosing leaders that are anything but. Now, the entire voter registration process is entirely online and so painfully simple there’s absolutely no excuse to shirk one’s civic duty by failing to submit an opinion. If we do not vote, we do not earn the right to complain when legislation we despise becomes law. sbkissel@indiana.edu

Dried flowers from Hart Farm are on sale at the first Bloomington Community Farmers’ Market of the spring.
Back in season Bloomington Farmers’ Market opened for first day of the season Saturday By Annie Garau agarau@indiana.edu | @agarau6
It was a sunny day. People munched on crêpes and kettle corn. Many sported nose rings, dreadlocks, straw hats and woven bags. Old friends greeted each other warmly and groups gathered throughout the space discussing things like mushroom hunting and the declining bee population. Last Saturday was the first of the season’s Farmer’s Market. Local farmers, restaurants and other vendors sell items in Showers Common each Saturday in April through November. “It definitely feels good to be back out here and have the community support,” said Rosie Sill, Earth Song Farm owner, from behind her rows of green and leafy vegetables. “I think it’s really important for people to have a connection with their foods and a relationship with the people who
grow their food.” It does seem many locals have gotten to know the farmers. They greet each other by name and ask about family members. But the strong community isn’t the only thing shoppers get out of the experience. “Eating in season is better for you and it’s better for the environment,” Sill said. “You can’t get fresher or healthier food anywhere else but a farmers’ market.” The environmental effects of eating local are numerous. The average meal eaten in America has to travel 1,500 miles before it makes its way onto a plate, according to the Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture. Most vendors at the farmers’ market, however, come from within Bloomington or neighboring towns. It is required that all vendors are Indiana residents. The foods at the market also come from small farms, which
aren’t nearly as bad for soil health. Most large farms do not give the soil enough time and nutrients to remain healthy. It ends up eroding and being unsuitable for plants to grow without the help of steroids. According to a 2006 study from Cornell University, the loss of soil and water from United States cropland costs the farming industry around $37.6 billion every year. Organic and locally grown foods typically cost a little bit more than the items one can find at a chain grocery store, but customers say it’s well worth it. “I think we hide the real prices from ourselves,” said Kathy Rountree, a resident of Nashville, Ind. “We hide the labor prices in the foods produced from slave labor and the environmental prices. It’s a lot more honest to just come here and pay the real cost.” Aside from the consumer benefits, the vendors also benefit from a more personal market

experience. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the average American farmer receives 15.8 cents of every dollar people spend on food at the grocery store. At farmers’ markets, there are no marketing, processing or retailing costs, and the entire dollar goes back to the farmers and back into the local economy. “Nursing Mother Nature can also come right back and nurse you,” said Mecie Delffs, an apprentice at Living Roots Ecovillage. “It’s so satisfying to have your hands in the dirt one month and then sit down at the table a month later with food. It actually blows my mind sometimes.” The vendors are happy to
discuss the process of creating their products, and most welcome shoppers to come visit the actual farms. Aaron Pollitt, owner of Lost Woods Farm, brought the logs he was growing shitake mushrooms on. A cluster of people gathered as he explained how he drills holes in the logs and inserts the spores into the holes. Mushrooms don’t grow from seeds, he said. “You prepare your food in a different way when you know where and who it’s coming from,” IU senior Anna Hashizume said. “When you know that it was created with love, it just tastes better than when you have to unwrap your food from a bunch of packaging.”

Senior pitcher Luke Harrison faces down a Michigan batter in the top of the ninth inning Sunday at Bart Kaufman Field. The Hoosiers lost game three, and finished their weekend series against Michigan with one win in three games.
» BASEBALL
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 seventh inning, IU Pitching Coach Kyle Bunn said one word too many and was thrown out of the game. Dedelow let his frustrations show in the fifth inning. He took a fastball inside that was called for strike one and immediately turned and said something to the umpire while shaking his head. The next pitch he swung at a changeup in the dirt and slammed his bat against his foot.
“Being the center fielder, I could see where their strike zone was and then being at the plate, I could see what he was calling against me and there was a little inconsistency,” Dedelow said. What might be most frustrating for the Hoosiers is they can’t point to one thing that went wrong this weekend. In its first loss IU’s pitchers struggled as they gave up seven runs, with five in the second inning. The pitching struggles continued in the second game when the staff
surrendered 11 runs, including nine in the eighth inning. But IU was saved by its offense, which scored 13 runs. But Sunday, the IU offense couldn’t correct a slow start from junior starting pitcher Scott Effross, who is now 2-4 this season. After Benedetti’s two-run home run in the third inning made the score 3-0, IU’s bats couldn’t respond like they have in the past. “I don’t think we can put our finger on one area but maybe we’re just pressing a little bit,” Lemonis said. Whatever needs correct-
think, ‘If I can hear it, someone else can hear it and someone else will do something about it,’” said Meagan Allen, vice chair of the GPSO diversity committee. “Well, everyone thinks this and then no one does something about it.” The GPSO also passed an omnibus sustainability resolution. The Bicentennial Strategic Plan approved in December calls for researchers to identify grand challenges throughout the next few years. The plan defines a grand challenge, a term referenced in IU-Bloomington’s strategic plan as a major and widespread problem that is best identified and tackled by multidisciplinary teams of researchers. The GPSO resolution calls for researchers to emphasize sustainability when identifying grand challenges. The Residence Hall Association recently passed a bill calling for McRobbie to sign the American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment before the end of the next academic year. More than 650 college and university presidents have already signed the American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment, according to its website. These college and
university presidents have promised their college or university will complete an emissions inventory; take immediate steps to reduce emissions; set a target date for becoming climate neutral; integrate sustainability into the education experience; and make the inventory, steps and plans available to the public. The GPSO resolution supports the RHA bill. The resolution also calls for IU to expand solar energy production at IU-Bloomington to one megawatt within the next two years. “Yes, it’s great to do smallscale solar and to put a couple of panels here and a couple of panels there, but to make a meaningful impact and reduce emissions and save us money in a really significant way, we need to do it at a large scale,” GPSO sustainability officer Andrew Bredeson said. Finally, representatives approved the nominees for four officer positions. Though the executive committee nominates the applicants for the appointed officer positions, the general assembly must approve the nominees. Earning a $1,000 fellowship, the appointed officers include the awards officer, a position now held by Adrian Paneto; the benefits officer, a position held by Ben Draper; the diversity officer, a position held by Brittany Witherspoon and the sustainability officer, a position held by Kyle Norweg.
ing needs to be corrected soon, as IU sits in 10th place in the Big Ten, which would leave them out of the Big Ten Tournament if the season ended today. Lemonis said if this team gets back to playing their best, there shouldn’t be a problem the rest of the season. But first IU needs to get back to playing its best. “I think we’ve played some good teams and we haven’t played our best,” Lemonis said. “When you play good teams you have to play good.”

According to the report, approximately 27 million people were the victims of human trafficking, which is the fastest-growing and second largest criminal industry, generating more than $150 billion worldwide. The average age at which children in the U.S. first become victims of sex trafficking is 13, and the average age of death of a person involved in prostitution is 34, most commonly from homicide. State Sen. James Arnold, D-La Porte, one of the lawmakers who wrote legislation this past year to curb the human trafficking problem, notes the prevalence of prostitution and human trafficking increases when large sporting events are hosted in Indiana. “We had a real dose of that, we really passed a quick law to address human trafficking for the Super Bowl,” Arnold said. “People would

bring in young girls for prostitution purposes.” Data shows similar trends in other cities as well, such as last year in Louisville, Ky., during the March Madness tournament when advertisements for commercial sex skyrocketed. Zoeller has been pushing and supporting measures to
reduce human trafficking in Indiana, and in this legislative session there were three major pieces of legislation that did just that. There was Senate Bill 296, which introduced a number of regulations on adult entertainment businesses so underage girls couldn’t dance or be forced
to dance; Senate Bill 532, which allows for prosecutors to seek civil forfeiture of the assets of a person accused of human trafficking; and House Bill 1216, which would ensure that children are not held criminally liable under Indiana’s prostitution laws if they are victims of human trafficking.
“This is absolutely lovely,” Shaffer said. “The level of energy and interaction is amazing. There are so many things you can do.” Shaffer said he appreciated the calligraphy and the music of the traditional Chinese string instrument called the guzheng. “The beauty of the calligraphy and the otherworldly sounds of the guzheng are lovely,” he said. Xianxia Michelson attended the event with her daughter after learning about it on Facebook. She said
she liked all of the activities because there were games for her child to play and an introduction to the art of calligraphy, which she encourages her children to learn. She was also happy to see an event that allows “children to know their roots,” although they live outside of China, Michelson said. Kerui Chen, director of marketing for Chinese Calligraphy Club, said the festival is an opportunity for people to learn about the Chinese culture. “People from different places can know the Chinese tradition,” Chen said. “That is the main idea of why we set up the event.”

The path to
1,000 wins
Since its creation in 1974, the IU softball program has won 1,002 games By Michael Hernandez micbhern@indiana.edu @AceOfSpades1213
1974 was the year Hall of Famer Hank Aaron passed Babe Ruth on the all-time home run list. It was the year future Hall of Famer Derek Jeter was welcomed into the world and the year late night said goodbye to “The Brady Bunch.” It was the year the original Rubik’s Cube was invented and a gallon of gas cost only 55 cents. As for IU in 1974, it established a softball program. Fast-forward 41 years later, and, in a 9-2 IU victory against IPFW on March 15, the Hoosiers secured their 1,000th win in program history. “It’s really special,” senior Shannon Cawley said. “I am so grateful to all the players before me who helped pave the way to reaching this milestone.” Many great players and coaches have come through Bloomington and have taken pride in wearing the cream and crimson uniform, where knowing the name on the front of the jersey is more important than the name on the back, senior Lora Olson said. “I never really understood it as a
freshman,” Olson said. “But now I really understand what it means to put on that jersey and see Indiana written across your chest.” IU has placed 17 All-Americans on the field, two of whom would go on to compete in the Olympics. The Hoosiers have combined for 24 no-hitters, three of which were perfect games, cementing pitching as the foundation of IU softball. One of the most decorated pitchers in IU history did it in just one year of competing in Bloomington. After wanting to move closer to home after her junior season, former IU pitcher Morgan Melloh transferred from Fresno State put together a season for the ages in 2011. Melloh made 47 starts for IU in her senior season, 40 of them resulting in complete games with 13 shutouts. Not only did she go on to break the IU strikeout record, but the Big Ten strikeout record as well with 494. “It’s a great feeling to be holding the strikeout record for IU, but records are meant to be broken,” Melloh said. “It just encourages the next IU pitcher to have a goal and to succeed in their future.”
Melloh also posted a 1.37 season ERA on her way to recording 32 wins, which is good for third most in school history for a single-season. “Just incredible,” IU Coach Michelle Gardner said. “I don’t know how else to explain Morgan other than that she is just an all-around great and talented softball player.” Melloh is ninth on the NCAA career strikeout list with 1,532 strikeouts. IU would have liked to have had her all four years, but her senior season will never be forgotten, as she led the Hoosiers to their last NCAA Regional appearance. Melloh still supports and represents her Hoosier family as she plays professional softball in Japan. A pitcher on the mound is just as good as the runs her offense puts up for her. Former player Sara Olson was one of the best hitters to ever step foot in the batter’s box for IU. Sara was the definition of an everyday player. She appeared in all but one game in her last three seasons. She finished her career at IU tied for fifth in home runs with 25 and sixth on IU’s all-time RBI list with 95 for her career. “I have numerous memories of
coming here and watching my sister play and now I’m grateful to be a part of it as well,” said Sara’s younger sister Lora. Sara Olson continues to be a part of the program, as she is currently a student assistant manager for the team. Regardless of whether you’re a great pitcher or hitter, you need the right coaches and mentors, and IU has had an abundance of great coaches that have made IU softball a winning program. “I was recruited to play here back in the ’80s,” Gardner said. “And I’m so grateful to now be part of such an amazing bunch of women who have been credited with so many wins, and it’s truly an honor.” A total of seven coaches have coached throughout the history of IU softball, with the first being Jenny Johnson. It was a rough start, as it took Johnson six tries to earn the first win in program history. She went on to post a 6-7 record in her first and only season at IU. Shortly after, Gayle Blevins became SEE WINS, PAGE 11

McDonald’s All-American commits to IU From IDS reports
His team had been knocked out of the Dick’s Sporting Goods high school national championship, but Thomas Bryant had one more splash to make in New York City. Saturday afternoon, the top-25 recruit announced his commitment to play next season at IU. Bryant, a 6-foot-10 forward from Huntington (W.Va.) Prep, narrowed his college choices to IU and Syracuse in November. Before that, he was also considering Missouri and Kentucky. “I just wanted to come here and be on TV and say that I’m committing to Indiana to play college basketball next year,” Bryant said on ESPN. “I’m very excited. I’ve been thinking about this long and hard. I’ve been talking it over with my mom and coaches. We just felt like being at Indiana was the best decision for me.” He is the No. 27 recruit in the country, according to 247Sports’ composite rankings. The 2015 McDonald’s All-American averaged 17.3 points, 11.6 rebounds, 4.5 blocks and 2.5 steals per game last season. He visited IU in March and said he enjoyed his time in Bloomington.
He could provide an instant solution to IU’s size problem, but projects as more of a finesse post player than an under-the-basket bruiser. “Thomas is a very skilled four man with great length and athleticism,” his ESPN. com scouting report reads. “He can put it on the floor and shoot it with range to 17 feet ... he plays mostly in the paint but the skills are definitely there to be able to step out.” But the start of Bryant’s IU career signals the end of another Hoosier’s. Per NCAA rules, a Division I men’s basketball program is allowed 13 scholarships per season. The transfers of Stanford Robinson and Max Hoetzel trimmed IU’s committed scholarships down to 13 for next season, but now the Hoosiers are over the limit again. To fit Bryant into the roster, at least one scholarship member of the squad will have to leave the program. Bryant becomes the third member of IU’s 2015 recruiting class, joining forwards Juwan Morgan and O.G. Anunoby. Each of IU’s last five recruiting classes has included a McDonald’s AllAmerican.

Sophomore outfielder Craig Dedelow slides into third base during IU’s game against Michigan on Saturday. Dedelow’s four extra-base hits weren’t enough to keep IU from losing two of three games in the series.
IU sophomore shines against Michigan By Andrew Vailliencourt availlie@indiana.edu | @AndrewVCourt
Sophomore outfielder Craig Dedelow had three extra-base hits last season. He had four in three games this weekend against Michigan. Dedelow was a bright spot for IU this weekend, despite the Hoosiers losing the first home series at Bart Kaufman Field in program history. He finished the weekend 6-for-14, spreading out two singles, a double, two triples and a home run across the three-game series. He also scored six runs and had three RBIs. “He’s been pretty steady all year,” IU Coach Chris Lemonis said. “He’s really
evolving into a great college player. I like some of those big swings.” IU (18-10, 2-6) lost game one 7-3, won game two 1311 and lost game three 4-3. Dedelow has been IU’s most consistent hitter all season and has recently moved into the leadoff spot to try to spark the offense. “It’s definitely different, even though it’s a jump from two to one,” Dedelow said. “Just a whole other approach that I need to lock in on and try to help my team.” Dedelow said his approach at the plate didn’t change much throughout the series, noting he doesn’t like pitches lower in the strike zone. “I was trying to see a good pitch early,” Dedelow
said. “Something preferably up in the zone. I usually hit higher pitches opposed to lower pitches.” His home run came in game three to right field. It finally put the Hoosiers on the scoreboard in the fifth inning. “He was throwing me some offspeed, so I was expecting a fastball since that was the only pitch he hadn’t thrown to me in that at-bat,” Dedelow said. “He threw it up, and I put a good swing on it. Luckily, it got out.” With the outburst, Dedelow is batting .342 this season — the highest on the team. He has 13 extra-base hits, three of them home runs, and 18 RBIs. After being more of a role player last season, he has started all 28
IU TOP PERFORMER Craig Dedelow, sophomore outfielder 6-for-14, 1 HR, 2 triples, 1 double, 6 runs, 3 RBIs games for IU. He has taken over in center field after spending time at first base and in right field early on in the season. An area Lemonis would like to see him improve in is strikeouts. Five of Dedelow’s eight outs during the weekend were strikeouts, with three of them coming Sunday — including the last out of the series. “I keep thinking about the last swing of the game, though,” Lemonis said. “He’s really turning into a great player.”

Hoosiers tally 11 top-10 finishes in Stanford Invitational By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu | @trlehman_IU
As the Hoosiers continue to nail down qualifying marks for the NCAA East Regional meet in May, the Stanford Invitational was a strong showing of the team’s strength in distance events. “There were some good performances there and even some weaker ones but, as a whole, we did pretty well,” IU Coach Ron Helmer said.

rate heats of the same event where no ultimate winner is crowned. Junior Tre’tez Kinnaird and freshman Daniel Kuhn both competed in what was considered the fastest section. Kinnaird was the Big Ten champion in the indoor 800-meter run this season, and Kuhn made history in Arizona last weekend with the third-best 800 in school history at 1:47.80. But Saturday, Kinnaird finished third with a time of 1:48.45, and Kuhn finished sixth with 1:49.57. Junior distance runner Josh Roche finished second in the men’s 3K steeplechase at 8:48.01, less than a
second shy of his personal record. “I felt really good,” Roche said. “I knew that last week, a few of the steeplechasers didn’t run as well as we all knew that they could, so I felt that I had to come out and have a good performance.” In his freshman year in 2013, Roche qualified for the NCAA Championships in the men’s 3K steeplechase with a personal-best time of 8:47.44. After a disappointing sophomore season, he failed to qualify for nationals in 2014. “It all came down to me not trusting in my training and not listening to
the coaches the way that I should have,” Roche said. “Yeah, I had a couple minor injuries, but it was mostly a focus issue.” His personal record sits at 10th in IU history, and it appears he may be poised to set another personal record soon with a similar performance this weekend. “When you make the National Championship, there’s no better feeling,” Roche said. “But when you miss it the next year, there’s no worse feeling. I’m just trying to keep from feeling that way again.” One athlete who did set a personal record was sophomore distance runner Amanda Behnke, who
finished 10th in the second section of the women’s 10K with a time of 33:59.60. Not only was her performance a personal record by 34 seconds, but it also stands as the sixth-best women’s 10K in IU history. “I had only ran the 10K two other times, so I never really knew what to expect before with such a long race,” Behnke said. “This offseason, I just got more miles and just tried to improve on my stamina.” With her strong performance in the Stanford Invitational, Behnke will not need to run another 10K until the Big Ten Championships because she has already cemented her

Museums fear they will lose art to fix debt

Museums around the world fear part of their collections will be sold to help settle budget gaps, make repairs or finance expansions, according to the New York Times. Last year, the Delaware Art Museum sold
a painting to help pay off $19.8 million of debt. However, this sale led to an urging from the Association of Art Museum Directors to its members not to lend works to the institution, according to the New York Times.

The By Hand Gallery hosts an opening reception for their new show “Rudy Pozzatti” on Friday. The show highlights new work from fine-art printmaker Rudy Pozzatti. By Hand Gallery is one of nine downtown galleries participating in this year’s Bloomington Gallery Walk.
Gallery Walk mixes art genres By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13
The Gallery Walk is a Bloomington tradition, a chance for community members and students alike to experience the variety of art Bloomington has to offer. Despite the storms earlier in the day, the walk went on Friday as scheduled. Patrons had the option to visit many of the downtown galleries, including The Venue Fine Art & Gifts, Pictura Gallery and By Hand Gallery, among others. The Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center Galleries hosted two artists on their main floor, while the lower floor was reserved for Ivy Tech fine arts students’ work. Claire Swallow, one of the main floor artists, displayed what she said is basically all the pieces she has made. “I actually did it with this exhibition in mind, but also I’ve had this idea about doing these bird flocks,” Swallow said. The exhibit, titled “Murmurations,” revolves around a singular image: a flock of birds in an open space. The collection, Swallow said, was inspired both by the image itself and the word used to describe it.
“I like the word, it’s a metaphor of sorts,” Swallow said. “I was pretty keen on the idea of the metaphor and I thought, ‘I’m going to produce some work.’ I’ve just done a small writing course so that was what kicked off this idea and it just took off from there, so to speak.” Swallow said her work in the writing course mainly concentrated on biographical writing, and though she appreciated the focus on metaphor the class allowed, writing itself is not her forte. “I’m not very good at writing, it has to be said,” Swallow said. “It was useful for generating creative ideas for artwork in the end, especially metaphorical stuff. I’m quite good at the images in words, but not punctuation.” This collection, Swallow said, is more commercialized and user-friendly than her next project, which will be more abstract. Swallow said in her next series, she intends to deconstruct her writing and move around the punctuation in an artful way. “I’m taking out the punctuation, putting it in one space and doing the images around that,” Swallow said. “It’s quite different, very conceptual, which is much more sort of creative.”
The Blueline Gallery hosted IU computational neuroscience student and photographer Eduardo Torres. Torres said this is his first show in a gallery, though this collection of portraits is one he has been working on for almost five years. “I’m very drawn to visual aesthetics and patterns to making things,” Torres said. “When I arrived here in Bloomington, maybe I was looking for a hobby a little bit. I think I’m just drawn to trying to make things that look clean to me. So I like drawing and I like spending time on the computer and this allows me to do a little bit of that.” Torres said his inspiration is natural feminine beauty, which he thinks today’s modeling and fashion industries abandon in favor of highly made-up photographs. The portraits in this collection, Torres said, are all natural, no makeup, because that is the type of woman he finds most beautiful. “I find it surprising that all these models and things are showing that kind of stuff to show beauty when, to me, the most natural things are the things that are

beautiful,” Torres said. “Like when people wake up, that’s what I find beautiful.” The process has also been an educational experience for Torres, he said, as he had no photographic experience or knowledge of cameras before attending IU. “In some ways, it has been about trying to learn about photography, trying to learn about natural lighting, trying to meet new people,” Torres said. “Just experimenting, experimenting with light.” This show, Torres said, is one step in a larger project he hopes to continue working on into the foreseeable future. This show is a fourto five-year stepping-stone, he said. “For me, this would be a 20-year project where, at the end of 20 years, I would look over at what I have and see if I’ve tried to grow in terms of trying to portray feminine beauty in some way,” Torres said.
Musicology professor talks Gypsy music as labor struggle By Lanie Maresh emaresh@indiana.edu
Friendly chatter filled the conference room located on the second floor of the William and Gayle Cook Music Library in anticipation to hear Lynn Hooker, a professor in the Musicology Department at the Jacobs School of Music, talk about Hungarian Gypsy musicians. At 12:30 p.m. Friday in the Simon Music Center, Hooker presented her studies in the challenges Hungarian gypsy musicians faced as laborers throughout the course of the 19th century as part of the Musicology Colloquium Series event titled “Gypsy Music as Labor in TwentiethCentury Hungary.” Prior to the lecture, every seat was filled as Alison Mero, Ph.D. and current adjunct lecturer in the Musicology Department, explained these musicology lectures are something the entire department faculty attends to hear about different topics in music. “Because we all do so very different things, it’s a great audience to get your work out outside of the specialties,” Mero said. “We often get to hear research
before it comes out in conferences and publication, which is very exciting.” When the lecture commenced, Hooker explained that at the beginning of the 1900s, these musicians often performed at restaurants, cafes and private events and were seen in the public eye as not being serious musicians. “These performers were frequently dismissed as merely tradition bearers, valued for their faithful transmission of the tradition even if it means suppressing their individual creativity,” Hooker said. With the popularization of Hungarian Gypsy music on the radio in 1925, Hooker said the musicians were not treated well. This led to the Gypsy War of 1934, when Gypsy bands were required to have their music screened before being aired on the radio. The musicians went on strike, wanting radio stations to not critique their music and be seen as musicians instead of merely performers. “They did not appreciate being denied the respect they felt they deserved,” Hooker said. “There was also this crucial financial aspect to the dispute of often not
being paid except through tips from the restaurant.” Hooker said the strike was settled when there was a shift toward more studio broadcasts, but things changed in the 1950s as cafes closed. Hooker said in January 1950, the Socialist party aimed to optimize the organization of this work force by requesting cultural managers to admit a list of the all the choirs and instrumental ensembles in Hungary. Three years later, the Budapest Office Program was created as a sort of union for musicians and to help them get jobs in a more organized fashion. They also provided performance licenses based on their rankings from auditions. “Only category ‘A’ musicians could lead a band in top establishments or abroad, but everyone could get a job, so to speak,” Hooker said. Although, since 1989, it has become clear that their music has rapidly declined, Hooker said. While in 1912 an ensemble comprised 14 members, in 2012 the average number fell to six. “I don’t think there’s any SEE GYPSY, PAGE 11

Local singer-songwriter Marshall Lewis has a full plate in front of him with a new EP nearing completion and several shows around Bloomington scheduled for the next couple of weeks. The first of Lewis’ shows is set for tonight at the Bishop Bar. Lewis has also recruited local band ALAR WAVE to play their second show since 2012. Lewis said people should expect a lot of new material, reworked songs and high energy. “For the show, the intention is to be much different than the way we have been,” he said. Things have been taking shape for Lewis over the past year, he said, and he has made a lot of changes to his music since the release of his debut EP “Higher Nature” in August 2014. “Originally it was rooted in folk music, but it’s kind of moved past that,” he said. “It’s kind of taken its own shape. It’s a little more wired, almost literally, because we’ve stretched into an electric sound.” When Lewis released “Higher Nature,” he immediately began work on a still-untitled second EP due to be released later this year, he said. The new EP is a little more solidified and cohesive than “Higher Nature,” he said. They have taken their time recording it in order to make a more particular and expansive record than the debut EP. “We’ve been tracking all over the place, including a couple of homemade studios, and we’ve really been taking it on the road,” Lewis said. He also said he’s excited to play another show with ALAR WAVE. Lewis played with the group about two and a half weeks ago at the Root Cellar for their first show since 2012. ALAR WAVE originally formed in 2011 in Chicago, lead vocalist and bass guitarist Gerard Pannekoek
said. After a year and a half of playing together, the group disbanded, Pannekoek said, and he started to travel around. A little over a year ago he settled in Bloomington and began trying to revive the project. At the end of January, the band’s current lineup finally got together for the first time. “It’s like a phase two,” Pannekoek said. “The songs sort of have changed a little bit, and it has a slightly different dynamic and a different feel even though there are the same core songs.” He also said their current live set is all songs from the band’s original group, but they have been experimenting with some new ideas. Randall Sciba, one of ALAR WAVE’s guitarists, said it has been a really cool experience to be able to bring Pannekoek’s project to life. One additional thing Sciba said he found interesting was the ability to add something of their own to the group’s final product. “I was just really happy to have two guys that wanted to play my music,” Pannekoek said. “Also to not just play my music, but to very much contribute.” Sciba said the band has a rock energy to their music. Yet, he said he is hesitant to just call the band’s sound rock because they do a lot of other things that are different. “We also pull a lot of influences from other places into the rock genre,” guitarist Danny Lukovic said. Pannekoek, Sciba and Lukovic all said they’re excited to bring ALAR WAVE to the Bishop for the first time. “I’ve only been here since the start of the year, and it was the first place I went and saw shows at in Bloomington,” Sciba said. “I don’t know if we’d even started the group yet, but I said, ‘Yeah, I think I want to play here.’”

COOKING MADE EASY
How to make Italian wafer cookies at home Allison Wagner is a sophomore in journalism.
With the Easter holiday over, I chose to resort to a traditional Italian dish for this week’s food column. Pizzelle are traditional Italian waffle-like cookies. They tend to be crisp and lightly sweet, the perfect compliment with espresso to follow a rich dinner. Traditionally, pizzelle received their distinct flavor from a strong anise seed flavoring. Today, vanilla extract is often and easily used as a substitute. There are many different variations of pizzelle, such as substituting anise seed for vanilla, almond or

If you would like vanilla-flavored pizzelle, add the vanilla extract. If you would like chocolate-flavored pizzelle, add the cocoa powder. Mix until well-blended. 4 Add in the baking powder and stir. 5 Add in the flour, little by

You can substitute your waffle iron, but the look will not be that of a traditional pizzelle. However, it will still taste wonderful. 7 If using a pizzelle maker, I would advise to follow the directions it set.
