The General returns Bob Knight comes back to Assembly Hall 20 years after he was fired.

By Matt Cohen mdc1@iu.edu | @Matt_Cohen_

T

here was no true guarantee he'd be there until he came into view.

The former IU players being honored from the 1980s and 1990s came out first, one by one. But the crowd was waiting for one more man, the one they had come to see.

Fans cheered across the sold-out Assembly Hall as each pillar of Indiana basketball took the floor, but there was a sense of anticipation among the clamor.

They had heard the rumors. They had waited outside for hours. And now they were here, arms outstretched and clutching phones, determined to document the improbable.

A tribute video played on the scoreboard before switching to a camera pointed down the empty southeast tunnel.

Soon, the former players began to file in. They had come from the tunnel that connects Assembly Hall to Cook Hall, where a reunion for the 1979-80 IU men’s basketball team took place.

But they weren’t the ones fans were waiting on.

There was still one man to follow.

Nearly two decades ago, he was fired from coaching IU’s men’s basketball team. He vowed to never return.

But Saturday afternoon, Bob Knight emerged from around the corner. * * * Knight, now 79, took each of the steps up to the stage at the Bluebird Nightclub in Bloomington with two feet, one hand holding the hand of a former player and the other gripping the rail. On a November day,

the room filled with the sound of his name.

"We love you Bobby!"

"Thank you, Coach!"

The General looked out at an audience of fans that loved him unconditionally. He had lived in Lubbock, Texas, 1,000 miles away from that kind of love for nearly 20 years.

“This was a great place to coach,” he said to the crowd. “And more importantly than that, we just about beat everybody’s ass.”

He praised the fans, announced raffle winners and made crude jokes. He was asked if he wanted to return to Assembly Hall, where he won three national championships, choked a player, threw a chair, gave an interview naked and became the winningest coach in IU history. Where he swore he’d never return.

“Let’s go tomorrow,” Knight said.

There was a women’s basketball game the next day.

He didn’t go. When rumors spread across social media that he would return for a January game against his alma mater, Ohio State, he didn’t go either. He did attend a college basketball game in Indiana that day, at Marian University, 50 miles from Bloomington.

He’s visited Bloomington High School South for a game — a team led by IU signee Anthony Leal — and he visited Indiana State University for a practice.

It all seemed like some sort of elaborate tease.

He had quietly slipped back into town early in the fall, moving into a house on the east side of Bloomington, not far from where he used to live in his coaching days. A house two miles from the arena where he built his legacy.

His shadow here is so long, his legacy so funda-

Portrait of Camilla Williams unveiled at IMU

By Michelle Lie mlie@iu.edu

A portrait of Camilla Williams was revealed at 3 p.m. Wednesday in the East Lounge of the Indiana Memorial Union. Williams was an IU voice professor and an opera singer.

Professional singer Camilla Williams joined the New York City Opera in 1946 where she was the first African American to perform as the lead role in “Madama Butterfly." In 1954, she was at the Vienna State Opera to perform her signature role as Cio-Cio-San. She traveled through Asia, Europe and Africa.

She joined IU’s faculty in 1977 as the university's first African American voice professor. She retired in 1997 and was later awarded the IU President’s Medal for Excellence, the highest honor an IU president can bestow. She continued living in Bloomington until she died in 2012 at 92 years old.

mental to this town, it’s difficult to imagine him casually sliding into a booth at Chili’s or ordering a milkshake at Culver’s. His departure was so ugly, his exile so bitter, it’s hard to picture he’d ever wear red again.

But he’s never hated IU basketball. Those in his inner circle say he’s never stopped loving Bloomington or its fans. They say he’s as happy as ever back in this community once again.

ESPN broadcaster and longtime friend Dick Vitale knew Knight planned to move back to Bloomington long before the public. He knew what Knight said he missed in Texas, what he was only able to find here.

“To be back around a lot of his friends and people that mean so much to him over the years, brings back a lot of great memories,” Vitale said in a January phone call. “That must be really a thrill.”

Knight still seethes with animosity for the IU administration that fired him. He’s publicly wished them dead.

“As far as the hierarchy at Indiana University at that time, I have absolutely no respect whatsoever for those people,” Knight said in 2017 on the Dan Patrick Show.

“I hope they’re all dead.”

For some, he’s lived to see that wish come true.

The Bloomington City Council approved ordinances requiring a cap on administrative and towing fees for residents and a plan to build a new apartment complex at Wednesday night’s meeting.

The council voted 8-0 for an ordinance rezoning 3.2 acres of land on the east side of the city located at 105 S. Pete Ellis Drive. The area will be rezoned, and Curry Urban Properties will build a new four-story apartment complex building there. The new apartment complex is still in the preliminary planning stage. The initial plan includes 264 units, 344 bedrooms and more than 300 parking spaces.

Tyler Curry, petitioner for Curry Urban Properties, said he hoped Bloomington residents would see a positive effect on the community with the addition of the new com-

plex.

“We’re promoting walking, we’re promoting bus routes and we’re promoting bike routes and I think that increases the quality of life,” Curry said. “This will be the nicest building anywhere close to that area.”

The council did not approve every condition necessary to begin construction, as they were unable to agree upon the parking-to-tenant ratio within the building.

The council also discussed an ordinance that would require a cap on administrative and towing fees for Bloomington residents. The council voted 7-2 to send the ordinance back to a committee to consider changes to it.

The ordinance outlines a requirement for accredited towing companies to apply for or renew their licenses to operate business. It also would require a cap on fees for nonSEE CITY COUNCIL, PAGE 4

Trailhead Pizzeria reopens after car crash

CLAIRE LIVINGSTON | IDS

Above Kitchen manager Jake Garner flips pizza dough Feb. 6 at Trailhead Pizzeria. Trailhead Pizzeria reopened in late January after a car drove through and destroyed part of the restaurant in September.

Bloomington’s Trailhead Pizzeria reopened in late January, nearly five months after a driver veered off a curve on State Road 446 and smashed through the front of the family-owned restaurant.

The picnic tables were run over, the fans bent and the outside wall replaced by a tarp after the 5 a.m. accident on Sept. 1. No one was taken to the hospital.

Now, that once-destroyed room can fit almost twice as

many people, the kitchen is more visible to customers and the space between the restaurant’s two rooms is more fluid, among several other alterations.

“We were bent but not broken,” co-owner Mark Bell said.

Trailhead Pizzeria is open Thursday through Saturday 4-9 p.m. and Sunday 4-8 p.m.

The day after the accident, employees transferred to Scenic View, the family’s other restaurant, General Manager Jessica Fitch said. The management team hired an al-

most completely new staff for the reopening.

The team includes head kitchen manager Jake Garner, who has worked with pizza for nearly two decades, most recently at King Dough. A pizza tattoo marks his hand.

“It kind of always came natural to me,” he said.

Garner’s menu changes include a new dough, a revamped marinara sauce and a house-made white-wine Alfredo.

For now the menu focuses on pizza, salads and appetizers. It has three new pizzas

named Leave No Trace, the Ranger and the Compass, a dairy-free option. The kitchen staff will reintroduce sandwiches and calzones over time, Fitch said.

Rebuilding was a family and community effort, Bell said, one that matches the restaurant’s family and community feel.

The pizzeria bought furniture from King Dough, which closed in Bloomington in December, and Scholar’s Keep, which closed in July. Family helped repaint.

“So many people helped

us out,” Bell said. “People say that’s why you’re in Indiana.”

The 2019 crash was the second time someone has driven into the restaurant in seven years. Patchy car tracks from the most recent accident scar part of the floor — a reminder, Bell said.

But Bell said he isn’t nervous about more destruction. He plans to update the landscaping outside the restaurant to create a buffer between the building and the road.

Community regulars are starting to revisit.

The restaurant has familyfriendly karaoke on Thursday nights, live music on Fridays and Saturdays and open mics on the first and third Sundays of each month.

At the pizzeria’s first karaoke night Thursday, kids belted out Taylor Swift as pizza and breadsticks streamed out of the kitchen and waitresses sang along.

Fitch recognized a man who came in to place a carryout order.

“Welcome back!” she said, grinning. “I told you we were finally going to open up.”

Ostrom Workshop SexFest BDSM event canceled appoints new director after controversial videos

Scott Shackelford was named the new executive director of the Ostrom Workshop at IU on Feb. 3, according to an IU press release.

“Going forward, Scott will be an outstanding fit for this important leadership role, and we could not be more pleased to have him at the helm to further elevate the stature of the Ostrom Workshop and foster its growing research agenda,” said Jeff Zaleski, interim vice provost for research at IU-Bloomington, in the press release.

The Ostrom Workshop was founded in 1973 by political scientists Elinor and Vincent Ostrom. The program focuses on how the government works at each level and how it can be changed to positively affect the well-being of citizens, promote democratic principles and improve sustainability, according to the Ostrom Workshop website.

The workshop now has more than 650 affiliates worldwide that collaborate with the workshop to build on the theme of governance to address societal problems.

Shackelford has served as the acting director of the workshop since 2019. He was also the director of the workshop’s program on cybersecurity and internet governance, according to the release.

will return to teaching after leading the workshop for five years.

“We’re deeply grateful to Lee Alston for his past leadership and service,” Zaleski said in the press release.

In the press release, Shackelford said he is honored to serve as the new executive director of the workshop.

“Together with the amazing staff, program directors and many wonderful faculty affiliates, I’m looking forward to this exciting new chapter of the workshop’s storied history in which we will build from our strengths while continuing to push the frontiers of governance research, and in so doing, hopefully help create a more sustainable, and peaceful, future for all,” he said.

After a live BDSM demonstration of a woman being hit at IU’s SexFest was recorded and posted online, the final event planned for Thursday was canceled. Within days, the video was posted to websites such as the Daily Mail, Breitbart and Infowars.

The video, taken by sophomore and IU Student Government Student Body Congress member Matt Ahmann, shows a woman being restrained and spanked by volunteers from Bloomington Kink, a local group. Ahmann said his friend Blair Nelson, who is a reporter for conservative news outlet Campus Reform, asked him to record the demonstration. Nelson posted the first story about the event Thursday afternoon.

This year was the fifth annual SexFest, a series of on-campus sex education events organized by the IU Health Center and various IU organizations. The festival’s bondage, discipline, sadism and masochism safety panel planned for Thursday night was canceled Thursday morning after the uni-

versity learned of a “disruption” that was planned for the event, IU spokesperson Chuck Carney said. He declined to clarify what the disruption was nor who was responsible for it. He said the information came from a credible source.

Provost Lauren Robel issued a statement Friday voicing disapproval of the demonstration of the woman being hit.

“Regardless of what the community members intended to communicate, the demonstration in this setting was inappropriate, disturbing, and offensive,” the statement reads.

According to the statement, the incident is being investigated.

Ahmann took videos and photos of the BDSM products being presented.

The photos and videos included the faces of students and volunteers at the event.

He said he was asked multiple times to put his camera away, and Singe, the leader of Bloomington Kink, followed him around the event and held up a Tshirt in front of the camera.

The video was posted to his Twitter account on Thursday and included in news articles. No students

Safety Escort plans to improve training

By Natalie Gabor natgabor@iu.edu | @natalie_gabor

Safety Escort has been an official IU service since 1994. The staff is working on changes to help make it better for students.

The free service, operated through the TapRide app, is a rideshare service that takes IU students and faculty home late at night in the Bloomington area. Provided by IU Fleet Services, it offers free safe rides to prevent students from walking home alone, according to the service’s website.

Safety Escort employs drivers and navigators to pick up passengers from anywhere in Bloomington and take them home or to another

location, just not commercial locations, Safety Escort Director Hannah Brainard said.

Each van has a driver and a navigator as an added safety precaution. The service runs seven days a week from 8 p.m. to 1:45 a.m. during fall and spring semesters. However, according to their website, the service may stop running a half-hour early or earlier based on a high volume of requests.

Brainard said she feels Safety Escort is an added level of precaution designed to protect students but has drawbacks the service is looking to address, such as the wait time and the number of calls they can take each night.

“We used to have a van

that was just dedicated to taking students from campus locations to campus locations, but we got rid of the campus van and had it take regular Bloomington calls,” Brainard said. “Now we are doing more calls each night.”

Safety Escort also implemented more training techniques so it is more comprehensive for drivers, allowing them to begin working with more knowledge and efficiency. They are also working on a survey for riders to complete after rides.

Students at IU also see the benefit of using Safety Escort, especially after late-night study sessions.

Sophomore Allie Quinto said she uses Safety Escort as

much as she can.

“When I’m studying late at night at Wells and no one else can give me a ride, I’ll call TapRide to get home,” Quinto said. “Even if it takes 20 minutes, it’s better than walking all the way up the extension.”

Roni Goolsby, a navigator and driver with IU Safety Escort, said Safety Escort is often there when other rideshare services can’t be, even if they can’t take riders to every location in Bloomington.

“We don’t drop off to commercial locations but we can pick you up from there,” Goolsby said. “But when it snows, we’re the ones trying to drive on the road as opposed to other Ubers and Lyfts.”

were involved in the demonstrations at the event, Singe said.

Ahmann defended his right to record in an interview with the Indiana Daily Student. He referenced Indiana’s recording law, which only requires one person in a conversation to consent to being recorded.

He referenced Indiana being a one-party consent state, which means if one party consents to be recorded in any public place, it is legal.

“Even if they say you can’t record, that’s not the law,” Ahmann said. “I don’t know why, if they’re so proud of this, that they would try to cover it up.”

Singe said although recording wasn’t against the law, it was banned from the event to protect the anonymity and safety of the students and volunteers.

She said she didn’t have a problem with people taking pictures, as long as they asked for permission.

“People asked if they could take pictures of our info or any toys we had out,” Singe said. “He knew that we were not allowing it, we did not want it, and he continued to do it anyway.”

She said she wasn’t

worried about her own privacy, since she produces a performance-based show about kinks, burlesque and drag shows.

“My face is out there anyway,” Singe said. “If you have students who want to explore this and their parents see a picture of them in this space, they get freaked out.”

According to the provost’s statement, no university funds were used to pay for the activities featured in the video or any of the events of the evening.

However, SexFest has ties to IU organizations including the Health Center, Sexual Health Advocacy Group, Residential Hall Association, Community Capacity for Prevention and Education and the IU Funding Board. Flyers posted to promote SexFest had the IU logo on it and read, “Browse our educational booths demonstrating the safe use of sex toys.”

“If any of the SexFest people had expressed discomfort or concern during the workshop, we would’ve stopped,” Singe said. “The only reason why we did any demonstrations, was because we were literally asked to.”

CORRECTION In the Feb. 6 issue of the IDS, the article “Behind the scenes of ‘Les Misérables’” incorrectly stated that the story takes place during the French Revolution. The IDS regrets this error.

» KNIGHT

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 * * * While he was still coach at IU, Knight had a seat picked out in Assembly Hall. He wanted to sit just inside the doors of the south lobby, at the top of the wooden bleachers behind the basket.

He wanted to sit there and watch IU basketball long after he retired. He thought he’d be watching one of his former players coaching on a court named in his honor. He wanted the freedom to get up and leave at any point, just as he’d imagined he’d one day walk away from his coaching career here, on his own terms.

That’s not how it turned out. Twenty years later, the winningest coach in IU history has yet to sit in those seats. He didn’t sit there during his return to Assembly Hall.

* * * Knight emerged from the tunnel to the expanse of fans whose decades-long wait had finally ended. Their General was home.

Chants of his name rang out across the arena as Knight— face more sunken, spine more hunched than that day when he left the hall for what was supposed to be forever — shuffled slowly onto the court.

He was accompanied by former players including his son Pat as well as Quinn Buckner, Steve Green and Scott May. Knight waved to the crowd as he stepped onto the floor.

He turned and bowed to the student section behind the south basket as the thunderous standing ovation continued.

“Bobby! Bobby! Bobby!”

“Thank you Coach!”

The arena was filled all the way to the upper corners of the balcony. The cheapest ticket was $300. It was rumored all week that Knight would make his return, and everyone wanted a glimpse of him.

Knight continued walking to midcourt to greet the players who had already been introduced. There was a chair set up for him, but he didn’t touch it. Instead he hugged former point guard Isiah Thomas, who played for Knight from 1979-1981.

The nearly 50 players and coaches on the court circled around their coach. Standing in the center, Knight held Thomas’ hand and raised it in the air.

In flashes, Knight was still intense, or at least a return to Assembly Hall brought some of that back. He led the student section in a “Defense” chant. He didn’t need a microphone. He pumped his fists and yelled to hype up the crowd. He walked over toward the ESPN broadcast table and grabbed Vitale’s arm before giving him a brief shove.

He did it all with tears in his eyes.

Thomas put his arm around his coach, beaming with pride. How much the moment meant to Knight was clearly evident on his face.

In the year since his Bloomington Culver’s opened, no one has ordered a root beer shake. It’s not on the menu, but Laskowski knew he had to make one.

Knight loves root beer milkshakes. After the Sonic that made them near his home in Lubbock, Texas, closed, he wasn’t able to find them anywhere else.

The staff made three milkshakes before bringing one to Knight. They had to make sure it was perfect.

The girl making them didn’t know who Knight was. She was 16.

Laskowski brought the stuck-in-your-straw, almost-too-thick-to-drink treat to Knight’s house in November. His eyes lit up.

“I’ll never turn down a milkshake,” Knight said.

At Culver’s, he’s slowly becoming a regular.

Laskowski had barely seen his head coach since Knight left Indiana. Now, Laskowski had the chance to tell Knight how much of an influence he has had on him all these years later.

They sat in a booth, sensing stares from across the restaurant. An older woman with a walker scooted past their table with a knowing glance.

“Did you know who that was?” Laskowski recalled asking the woman.

“That’s Bobby Knight!” she exclaimed with a smile.

Bob Knight throws a chair, in a move that would later become infamous, across the court at Assembly Hall against Purdue in 1985. He was honored Saturday in his return to Assembly Hall.

» KNIGHT

Former IU guard Randy Wittman called Knight when he moved back to Bloomington. He told Knight that he belonged in Assembly Hall, that there was a reason he moved back to Bloomington.

Every time there was a reunion or big game, the city swirled with speculation that the infamous coach would make his return. But each day came and went without any glimpse of that shock of white hair at Assembly Hall.

The invitation was there, but it was up to him to take it.

On Saturday, he did.

When Knight peeked around the corner, he ended his own exile.

After 20 years, there was closure. He was home.

When Knight moved back to Bloomington, his friends tried to convince him to come back to Assembly Hall. For so long, he didn’t listen.

“I would hope one day, as I’ve conveyed to him, that he would go back to a basketball game there and feel the adulation and the unbelievable love that many of those Bloomington Hoosier fans have for what he did when he was there,” Vitale said in a January phone call.

“It was by measures complex, touching, charming, sensitive."

Charles Webb, dean emeritus of the Jacobs School of Music, said he wanted to emphasize the hard work Williams put in her work and the difficulties she faced as a black woman.

“As we think about the contribution that Camilla

“We need an administrative fee to be able to employ people,” Padawan said.

Towing a vehicle would cost parking violators various fees, according to the ordinance. One fee for picking up a vehicle that has been towed is a maximum of $125.

There’s also a $25 fee to be paid by the person whose car is towed if the company has to store the vehicle for more than 24 hours and a $25 administrative fee that covers towing utilities, equipment and or special treatment.

Padawan said he once lost money on a tow that required more than six hours of manual labor, further justifying the need for higher fees.

Sims said although he sympathized with towers, he felt it necessary to address the financial situation of many Bloomington residents.

“Our community can be divided almost into a community of haves and have nots with regard to local income streams,” Sims said.

“This is not intended to — nor will it hinder any commerce of — the tow companies affected by this. Through this discussion, we want to change things and promote balance.”

The meeting to consider changes to the ordinance is scheduled for Wednesday.

MEN’S BASKETBALL

IU loses sixth straight game to Purdue

ALEX DERYN | IDS

IU men’s basketball extended two separate losing streaks.

IU lost its fourth game straight Saturday afternoon when Purdue took the 74-62 victory in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. It was also IU’s sixth straight loss to Purdue.

In his time at IU, men’s basketball head coach Ar-

chie Miller has never won a game against Purdue. The Hoosiers have only defeated Purdue once since 2013, and the Hoosiers’ last victory came on Feb. 20, 2016, in Assembly Hall.

Saturday’s game was overshadowed by former IU coach Bob Knight, who returned to Assembly Hall for the first time since he was fired in 2000.

Fans were excited dur-

ing the halftime show, which featured Knight, but the game as a whole lacked much for them to cheer for.

Freshman forward Trayce Jackson-Davis was aggressive early and used his size to take advantage of the Purdue defenders in the paint but he was the only one who could find much success.

IU couldn’t make shots and Purdue amped up the pressure to force 10 turn-

overs in the first 20 minutes.

It was a close game until Purdue went on a 12-0 run to finish the first half.

The Hoosiers had multiple opportunities in the first half to be in command but kept giving the Boilermakers chances off turnovers.

IU didn’t score a point in the final 3:47 of the first half.

In the second half, IU cut the lead down to as few as six points with 9:03 remain-

ing. The 7-0 run came after Purdue led by 16. But the momentum IU built was halted after multiple empty possessions.

Fans started heading for the exits as Purdue took a 15-point lead in the second half with 4:02 remaining in the game.

Jackson-Davis led IU with 16 points and eight rebounds, and eight different players scored. Sophomore

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Bob Knight’s return is all that matters

IU’s defense comes up short in loss to Purdue

By Phillip Steinmetz psteinme@iu.edu | @PhillipHoosier

ANNA TIPLICK | IDS

Former IU men’s basketball coach Bob Knight walks back Feb. 8 to the south entrance of Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall with former IU players.

Knight’s appearance during halftime of the IU versus Purdue game was his first time back in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall since being fired nearly two decades ago.

Caleb Coffman is a junior in sports media

IU’s matchup against instate rival Purdue was the team’s most important game of the season, but the actual game was an afterthought.

IU’s season is on the brink of disaster. After dropping their fourth-straight game with a 74-62 loss to Purdue, the team is firmly on the outside of the bubble looking in. IU’s senior class is in danger of becoming the first class to not make a NCAA Tournament, but that’s not what anyone is talking about. Instead, the Hoosiers’ lowest point of the season will be remembered fondly for Bob Knight’s return.

For almost a week, rumors swirled that Knight would make his first appearance in Assembly Hall since being fired in September of 2000 for abuse that violated IU’s zero-tolerance policy.

Students camped out

in the snow the night before to get the best possible seats to see Knight’s return.

Three hours before tip-off, the line of students waiting to get into Assembly Hall stretched out of sight.

Students circled the arena and wrapped around Cook Hall all the way to North Fee Lane looking to get the best possible view of a historical moment.

“We were here at 10:30 last night,” sophomore Jason Lock said, motioning to his seven friends next to him in the front row of the student section. “Once we saw that Knight was going to be there, we knew we had to do whatever to get good seats. Just look at this, best worst decision of my life.”

In the first half, the fans brought their usual energy, but it was clear that everyone was just waiting for halftime. As soon as the players left the court and public address announcer Chuck Crabb directed everyone’s

attention to the video board, Assembly Hall erupted.

Many wondered if Knight, who is now 79, would ever return to Assembly Hall. After all, he did tell radio personality Dan Patrick he hoped every university administrator that fired him was dead. But nearly 20 years later, one of the most beloved figures in Indiana returned home.

For a split-second, Knight’s mouth turned into a smile as he walked across the court into the arms of 47 of his former players. He was surrounded by those who were closest with him and reminded of why Assembly Hall was so special to him.

“This is where he belongs,” said Randy Wittman, one of Knight’s former players from 1978-83.

Knight’s return was a monumental celebration, but it was also a heartbreaking one. People feared Knight as he stomped along the sideline in Assembly

forward Race Thompson made his first appearance since sustaining an injury in the first half against thenNo. 11 Michigan State on Jan. 23.

There are only eight games remaining on IU’s schedule and four of them are on the road. Up next, IU will be back at home once again Thursday night as Iowa heads to Bloomington.

Hall from 1971-2000, but when he shuffled across the court Saturday, he was a shell of his former self.

Knight was — and sometimes still is — considered to be the king of Indiana, but his vacant stare as he looked at the crowd almost brought me to tears. There were moments during the celebration that the fire burning inside of Knight came through as he yelled “defense,” but they were fleeting.

While he walked off the court with his arm around former No. 2 overall pick Isaiah Thomas, the great Bobby Knight did something he rarely did, even in his prime.

He took a moment to thank the crowd, slightly bowing, before disappearing back into the tunnel.

IU’s season may be in ruin, but nobody cares.

“That was the greatest thing I’ve seen in my life,” IU junior Jack Persiger said. calcoffm@iu.edu

Former IU men’s basketball coach Bob Knight yelled two words as he stood on the hardwood court of Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall at halftime.

“Play defense!”

It was Knight’s first appearance within the walls of Assembly Hall, where he coached for 29 years, since he was fired in 2000. Despite his infamy, the Hoosiers ignored Knight’s advice. They did not play defense.

The Hoosiers’ defense broke down in the final minutes of the first half and allowed multiple runs in the second. IU dropped its fourth straight game Saturday afternoon and sixth in a row to Purdue in the 74-62 defeat.

“Really just little things that hurt us,” freshman forward Trayce Jackson-Davis said. “We would string a few stops together, and maybe we didn’t make a shot on one end and then they got it on the other. It’s really hard to play catch up in the second half. They did a really good job holding the lead.”

IU gave up a 12-0 run heading into halftime.

It was a run that sucked all the energy out of the crowd. Jackson-Davis took advantage of the matchups he was given but IU’s defense didn’t match his effort. The Hoosiers had 10 turnovers, which resulted in 12 points for the Boilermakers.

Purdue guard Aaron Wheeler was 3-3 from be-

yond the arc in the first half as IU failed to get back and defend the 3-point line on multiple occasions.

“We got off to a decent start,” IU men’s basketball coach Archie Miller said.

“But our turnovers in the first half really killed momentum. And their run at the end of the half was really a deflating deal.”

The Hoosiers found some success offensively in the second half, but their efforts on the defensive end wouldn’t help them regain the lead.

Every time IU found some type of spark and cut the lead, Purdue answered with a made shot or strung together multiple defensive stops to regain momentum.

The Hoosiers made it a 6-point game with 9:03 remaining, but that’s the closest they would get. The Boilermakers went on a 9-0 run to stretch the lead to 15 points with 4:02 left. At that point, fans started heading for the exits. The game was all but over.

It was another Big Ten loss that came as a result of bad defensive play.

Knight’s teams were known for their strong defense, and Saturday afternoon, he witnessed a game where the Hoosiers couldn’t rely on theirs to come through.

“I’m disappointed for our players,” Miller said.

“I’m disappointed for our fans. I’m disappointed for everyone that came back for the reunion. And I’ll take full responsibility for the loss today.”

Art exhibition uses nostalgic items as art

COURTESY PHOTO

The “...maybe our wasted past� exhibition is located at 605 N. Fairview St. The series will be at the I FELL community gallery in Bloomington through the end of February.

By Lizzie Kaboski lkaboski@iu.edu

Bloomington-based art gallery NOISE exhibits a collection of art inspired by discarded objects and nostalgia.

The series will be up at the I FELL community gallery in

Bloomington through the end of February.

The exhibition, titled “... maybe our wasted past,� uses a variety of artwork to create a collection that reflects on the way artists and audiences perceive their relationship with the past, said Raphael

Cornford, co-founder and curator of the NOISE gallery.

Artistic mediums used in the exhibit include printmaking, drawing, painting, jewelry, fiber arts, video, sculpture, compost, digital art, fire and reclaimed plastic. Cornford said he and fel-

low curator Natasha Heines were inspired by their mutual collection of nostalgic items from the 1980s and ‘90s. “I think it’s really easy, when you’re looking at nostalgic objects, to only think about them in the context of the past,� Cornford said. “This

show was a challenge to ourselves and to our interests to use the past to think about possibility.� After each receiving an MFA degree, Cornford, a trained printmaker, and cofounder Bill Bass, a photographer, began the NOISE project in their garage in 2016. The duo has now moved out of its original space and curates shows not only at I FELL, but also at other universities in and in its own spaces around Bloomington. “We’re both really invested in contemporary art as a whole,� Cornford said. “As we’ve gained experience we’ve learned more about stuff outside of what we were taught to curate more diverse shows.�

The gallery features a variety of artists from across the continent, including local artist Andrew Polk. A few of Polk’s pieces include his work that was burned in a fire at his art studio in 1996.

“The other work is gone,�

Polk said. “I wouldn’t say I like them more than earlier work, but there is something really nice about these. They’re like artifacts.�

Polk, who graduated from IU in the 1970s, worked at the University of Arizona before recently moving back to Bloomington. Two of his new lithographic pieces were inspired by Bloomington’s landscape and history. “I meet my neighbors, and I learn that many of these people have lived here for generations,� Polk said. “There is so much history here.�

Co-curator Rose Hardin said much of the artwork focused on the concept of storytelling. “We look at what is actually happening within the objects,� Harding said. The gallery will run through the end of February at the I FELL building at 415 W. Fourth St. in Bloomington.

MEN’S TENNIS

IU loses 4-2 to Middle Tennessee on the road

By Joshua Manes jamanes@iu.edu | @TheManesEvent

IU men’s tennis dropped four of five finished singles matches Friday in a 4-2 loss to Middle Tennessee State University.

Any momentum IU had from winning the doubles point to start the night was quickly lost in singles play.

The Hoosiers dropped all six first sets, putting themselves in a hole they couldn’t get out of.

“When we dropped six first sets we were just trying to find a way to really just hold serve in the second set,” IU head coach Jeremy Wurtzman said. “Then all of a sudden we got a couple of holds under our belt and we got some breaks. And then one break led to another and we really set off each other.”

Despite the rough start, IU stayed in the match, winning the second set on three of six courts.

“In the second sets I thought [Middle Tennessee] tired out a little bit, but we kind of stayed competitive, stayed in there and really dug ourselves out of some holes,” Wurtzman said.

It was the Hoosiers’ top three singles players Bennett

Crane, Zac Brodney and Carson Haskins that came back and won in the second set.

Crane, a senior, was the only Hoosier to find singles success dominating in the second and third sets.

Crane’s 4-6 6-1 6-1 brings him to 2-2 in singles play this season.

Crane’s win cut the match deficit to 3-2, with Brodney and Haskins still playing.

After winning the tiebreak in the second set, senior Brodney couldn’t get a foothold in the third, losing 6-1 to Chris Edge. “[Edge] just swung for everything and everything was going in tonight for that young man,” Wurtzman said.

Edge was ranked No. 76 in the preseason rankings, but fell out of the top-125 in this week’s rankings despite being 7-1 this season coming into Friday night’s match.

Middle Tennessee’s only ranked singles player is No. 121 Max Rauch, who played in the four spot Friday. In fact, of the 17 matches played between Edge and Rauch, only one has been on court one.

“Those top four guys I think could be intermixed,” Wurtzman said. “I don’t re-

ally put too much into it. You know, this early in the season, the rankings, you have one or two good wins or one or two solid wins — it can get you ranked.”

While they came home

without a win, the Hoosiers had another strong showing in doubles play. Crane and Brodney took down a ranked team for the second time this season, defeating No. 20 Pavel Motl and Stijn Slump.

Three weeks ago, Crane and Brodney defeated then-No. 21 David Stevenson and Oscar Cutting from the University of Memphis.

“They just know each other so well,” Wurtzman

said. “It helps that they’re so comfortable with each other and so when they go into their matches they kind of know what to expect of each guy. They’ve really become a good team.”

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @lcnorton31

The Hoosiers found success across the board from both the team’s developing young talent and veteran standouts in Loftus Sports Center at Notre Dame in the Meyo Invitational over the weekend.

The team’s youth were able to show their ability and potential this weekend with performances from sophomore Alexis Hill and freshmen Elizabeth Stanhope, Janii Jenkins and Lauren Thomas.

Hill threw a new personal best mark of 21.25 meters Friday, placing third, which also stands just 0.28 meters shy of the school record.

Stanhope recorded a breakout performance in the 600-meter with a time of 1:30.61, a new personal best, and placed fourth.

Stanhope, who has competed in every meet for the Hoosiers this season, came to IU holding the Indiana state record in the 800-meter.

Jenkins and Thomas, both competing in the 400-meter, were able to set new personal best times of 55.18 and 56.30,

respectively.

“Anytime we’re going forward is a good thing,” IU head coach Ron Helmer said after the meet. “Not every-

body is capable of being an All-American or a Big Ten Champion, but everybody is capable of getting better.”

Along with success from

developing underclassmen, the team’s veteran members contributed to the overall success of the weekend.

Senior Megan Grabowski

finished in fifth place in her sole event, the women’s 200-meter, with a time of 24.28.

Senior Joely Pinkston

finished first among all collegiate competition in the 800-meter championship with a time of 2:07.40.

Pinkston finished third only to unattached athlete Jaimie Phelan and IU’s Kelsey Harris.

Senior Khayla Dawson and junior Maddy Pollard, who have both held the No. 1 mark nationally in the shot put this season, finished third and fifth respectively with marks of 16.93 and 16.70 meters.

The final event of the day, the women’s 4x400-meter relay, featured Pinkston, Jenkins, Stanhope and senior Mallory Mulzer.

Uniting both developing athletes alongside upperclassmen, the relay team ultimately finished in fifth place with a time of 3:47.70.

The Hoosiers will compete at three separate meets this upcoming weekend as they send athletes to the Iowa State Classic, the Tyson Invitational at the University of Arkansas and Hoosier Hills in Bloomington.

“We intend to go in this weekend and come out with positive performances.”

Helmer said.

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

President Donald Trump delivers the State of the Union Address to a joint session of the U.S. Congress on Feb. 4 on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.

Trump wants to talk about the economy.

So let’s talk about it.

Kyle Linder (he/him) is a junior in journalism and international relations.

President Donald Trump delivered his third State of the Union address Tuesday night, touting the United States’ strong economy and asserting his crucial role in its recovery. The unemployment rate is at a 50-year low, wages have increased and the stock market has reached record highs.

“I am thrilled to report to you tonight that our economy is the best it has ever been,” Trump said.

But that’s not the whole story.

Perceptions of the economy depend on who you ask.

According to a Pew Research Center report in December, 75% of Republicans but just 41% of Democrats thought the country’s economic conditions were excellent or good. The numbers were different for poorer Americans: Just over half of low-income Republicans and only onethird of low-income Democrats rated the economy positively.

Democrats must rebuke Trump’s claims on the economy in this light. Regardless of party, poorer Americans do not feel the economy — despite low unemployment

and a booming stock market — works for them.

Behind all of this is the belief, shared by a majority of both parties and nearly 70% of Americans, that current economic conditions are helping the wealthy, while over half of Americans say they hurt the poor and middle class.

Americans are right to feel this way. More than threequarters of full-time workers say they live paycheck to paycheck, according to a 2017 poll. Further, 71% of all U.S. workers are in debt and most believe they always will be. At the same time, Federal Reserve data shows that the top 1% of Americans have more wealth than the bottom 90%.

A strong majority of voters recognize the economy works for the wealthy and against the poor and middle class. According to the Institute for Policy Studies, 1 in 5 U.S. households have zero or negative net worth, which includes 30% of black households and 27% of Latino households.

Democrats must offer a bold alternative to Trump in November, not someone who promises a return to normalcy. Just as unemployment began trending downward years before Trump’s election, the challenges facing the American working

class began years ago.

“We know too that the entrenched disparities and inequities impacting our communities didn’t begin when that man descended an escalator in Trump Tower,” Rep. Ayanna Pressley, an endorser of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, said in the Working Families Party’s State of the Union response. “They are the results of decades of short-sighted, exclusionary policies.”

As union membership rates in the U.S. began to decrease in the 1980s, so did the middle class’s share of total income. As membership rates declined 20%, the richest Americans took a much larger share of total income.

The richest 5% of Americans now earn nearly a quarter of all income, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

If anything, Trump has made the economy worse.

In Indiana, Trump’s trade war with China has taken its toll. Indiana exports to China fell from $3.1 billion in 2017 to $2.2 billion one year later.

Indiana farmers were hit the hardest: The state’s exports of oilseeds crops, such as soybeans, fell from $1.1 billion to $238 million over the same period. In a period of high unpredictability, Indiana farmers took the hit even while wealth continued

to increase for the country’s richest.

For the first time in this country’s history, Trump’s tax cuts have allowed billionaires to pay a lower effective tax rate than the average working person.

After greenlighting the continued proliferation of wealth inequality, the Trump administration has made clear that it’s on the side of the wealthy. Trump showed most clearly that he stands against the poor by bragging about barring 7 million Americans from food stamps in his State of the Union speech.

“This is what Trump really means when he talks about a booming economy,” Sen. Bernie Sanders said in his response to the State of the Union. “Since he has been in office, billionaires have seen their wealth increase by $854 billion, a 37% increase.”

Democrats can and should nominate a candidate dedicated to structural change, one who can convince working-class Americans that Trump is beholden to the wealthy and one who understands the pain being caused by the so-called strongest economy in U.S. history. kylinder@iu.ed @kylinder

SHARP REMARKS

Giving a Medal of Freedom to Limbaugh is an affront Ashley Sharpley (she/her) is a sophomore in public policy analysis and business law.

Just minutes after recognizing Charles McGee, one of the last surviving Tuskegee Airmen, President Donald Trump awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the country’s highest civilian honor, to one of America’s most well-known bigots, Rush Limbaugh.

Trump said he gave the award at his Tuesday State of the Union address in recognition of the people who are inspired by him as well as his work for charity.

What Trump is really doing is legitimizing a platform that systematically attacks the most vulnerable members of our society and does so with incredible nationalistic zeal. Awarding Limbaugh with the Medal of Freedom validates his hateful rhetoric as soundly as Trump saying the words himself.

John F. Kennedy established the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1963 to honor Americans who have significantly and positively contributed to the security, peacefulness and culture of America. Past recipients have ranged from Toni Morrison to Bob Dylan to Madeleine Albright to Ellen DeGeneres.

Limbaugh is the antithesis of those stated values. He has dedicated his decadeslong tenure as a radio host to being hell-bent on spreading vitriolic xenophobia and patently racist rhetoric — something that’s right up our president’s alley.

Limbaugh argued in 2013

Eric Langowski’s grandmother was incarcerated in an internment camp for Japanese Americans during World War II. Today, a petition written by Langowski, Class of 2018, and IU associate history professor Ellen Wu presses IU to recognize its role in Japanese American exclusion.

They will present the petition to IU’s Board of Trustees, President Michael McRobbie and Provost Lauren Robel before the Japanese American Day of Remembrance on Feb. 19. It demands IU admit to its racist exclusionary past, issue retroactive diplomas to about a dozen Japanese American students who were denied admission between 1942 and 1945 and provide funding for research and education on Japanese American incarceration.

There is no way to fully rectify the exclusion of Japanese American students during Japanese internment, but the least IU and McRobbie can do is fulfill the petition’s demands.

The university should recognize the injustice it committed against not just the denied applicants, but Japanese Americans as a whole — IU set the precedent for other surrounding colleges to reject Japanese American applicants, Langowski said.

Langowski said the demands listed in the petition are a way of getting reparations from IU for those who were denied an education, including some who were particularly in danger of being incarcerated in internment camps in the west. This petition is also crucial to raising awareness of IU’s ugly past.

According to a paper written by Langowski and published in the Indiana Magazine of History, IU’s Board of Trustees ruled in May 1942 that “no Jap. be admitted to Indiana University.”

Ora L. Wildermuth, president of the Board of Trustees at the time, said Japanese people were fundamentally different from America’s European wartime enemies.

“As I see it, there is a difference in Japanese and Germans or Italians — they are Aryans and can be assimilated but the Japanese can’t — they are different racially,” Wildermuth said.

“I can’t believe that any Japanese, no matter where he was born, is anything but a Japanese.”

Wildermuth’s name was removed from the Intramural Center last year due to his opposition to racial integration.

Herman B Wells, who was president of IU at the

time, approved scholarships for refugee students from European countries, including Germany.

However, for students of Japanese descent, Wells only approved a letter to be sent to rejected applicants, signed HBW. This revelation about the exclusion of Japanese Americans during an era of internment certainly complicates Wells’ legacy.

“You see that there’s Wells the person and Wells the administrator, and Wells the administrator was beholden to Wildermuth, the president of the trustees,” Langowski said. “Everything we know about Wells suggests he would have been against this, but he wasn’t.”

Not correcting this mistake would tarnish McRobbie’s legacy as president as well. Wildermuth’s antiJapanese comments were cited by McRobbie as a reason to remove his name from the Intramural Center, Langowski said, but no more has been done to remove Wildermuth’s legacy from IU since.

The kind of racist vitriol expressed by Wildermuth may seem like a mere product of its era, but this is too generous. At the time, dissenters at IU spoke out against the ban of Japanese American students .

An Indiana Daily Student article published Oct. 14, 1942, addressed a town hall meeting in which IU students voiced their negative opinions of Japanese Americans.

“It seems that these students have overlooked a bulwark to democracy: logical thinking,” according to the article. “We don’t profess to be the judge of the Japanese students question, but we do know this: We are learning to hate all Japanese people.”

Wu said this part of IU’s history is still relevant today because the consequences of such monumental mistakes are still felt generations later, especially considering Bloomington’s recent controversy over white supremacy.

“I think this is a really powerful opportunity for our university to have a useful conversation about how racism gets almost normalized, or how people make essentially racist decisions and people go about their business,” Wu said.

What could IU possibly do to create a safe and inclusive learning space without recognizing its denial of prospective Japanese students in the past?

There is no way to turn back time and reverse this legacy. However, IU must do what it can to rectify it, starting with answering the demands of this petition. abbridge@iu.edu @abbymalala

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh introduces President Donald Trump at Turning Point USA Student Action Summit Dec. 21, 2019, at the Palm Beach County Convention Center in West Palm Beach, Florida.

that white people shouldn’t be held responsible for the institution of slavery.

“It’s preposterous that Caucasians are blamed for slavery when they’ve done more to end it than any other race,” he said. “If any race of people should not have guilt about slavery, it’s Caucasians.”

Limbaugh lauded the president’s “brilliant stratagem to flood sanctuary cities with these immigrants” in April 2019. He referred to the number of immigrants attempting to cross the U.S.Mexico border as an “invasion,” comparing it to D-Day in June 2019. He was — and presumably still is — of the belief that Democrats support sanctuary cities in an effort to expand their voting power in historically red states.

Trump told two stories in

his Tuesday address painting “illegal immigrants” as violent criminals propped up by the Democratic Party.

The first story involved the case of a man in New York who was charged with raping and murdering a 92-year-old woman after being released by the New York Police Department following an arrest for assault. Trump claimed that “If the city had honored ICE’s detainer request, his victim would be alive today.”

Later in his speech, the president introduced his guest Jody Jones, whose brother Rocky was killed by an undocumented immigrant in California in 2018.

While racist threads run through Trump’s entire presidency, it is acts like honoring Limbaugh that really solidify his bigoted intent. The presi-

dent gets major backlash over referring to nations as “shithole countries” or comments such as “They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

But Limbaugh has been saying these things for almost 50 years, and awarding Limbaugh for it says it all without Trump having to make any of the statements himself. It’s not sneaky, but it is effective in getting his point across.

In awarding Limbaugh the Medal of Freedom, Trump sent a powerful message. He placed his, and by extension the nation’s, stamp of approval on Limbaugh’s entire platform. assharpl@iu.edu @apsharpie

IU impresses at Big Ten Willie Morrison sets Match Play Championship program and national record

By Evan Gerike

“He’s got some skills — perhaps even more skills than we thought he had,” IU head coach Mike Mayer said of Giacchetto. “If he keeps up with this pace, he’s gonna be hard to get out of the lineup.”

Giacchetto was glad to see some of his work start to pay off.

“I definitely felt some pressure,” Giacchetto said. “I was excited to compete in the lineup for the first time, and it was nice being with all my teammates.”

Giacchetto was the only Hoosier to win against the Nittany Lions, defeating junior James McHugh by three holes. Senior Brock Ochsenreiter tied his match. IU lost 4-1-1.

Against Michigan, Giacchetto won again, this time by four holes. But he had more help. IU won three

It was far from a perfect weekend for the IU men’s golf team, but someone always seemed ready to step up when big moments came.

Freshman Drew Giacchetto, playing with IU for the first time, elevated his play against Penn State.

Giacchetto and graduate student Jack Sparrow found success against Michigan on Friday. After sophomore Mitch Davis beat one of the best players in the Big Ten on Saturday, Sparrow secured a victory over Rutgers for a strong finish to his match.

Giacchetto hadn’t played his way into the lineup for IU before the Big Ten Match Play in Palm Beach, Florida, but led the Hoosiers in their first two matchups.

matches and lost three against Michigan. Sparrow’s fourhole victory and junior Ethan Shepard’s three-hole victory provided enough cushion for the Hoosiers to win.

IU came into the weekend as the No. 10 team in the Big Ten, but Mayer said the conference might be as open as he has seen in his 31 years coaching. IU is only ranked 13 spots lower than No. 6 Rutgers.

“I just think every team has a chance to win the Big Ten Championship in May,” Mayer said. “It’s that even.”

Some of that parity showed as IU took down Rutgers in their final match Saturday. Davis faced junior Christopher Gotterup, who Golfstat ranked as the 28th best player in the country.

Davis had his best performance of the weekend, beating Gotterup by five holes.

The Hoosiers played their best round against the Scarlet Knights. Shepard and senior Evan Gaesser won by one hole and four holes respectively, and Ochsenreiter tied his, helping the Hoosiers win 3.5-2.5.

The Big Ten might be open, but Giacchetto said he wants to take it one day at a time.

“Golf is different than basketball,” Giacchetto said.

“You really don’t match up with size and all that. You play 18 holes, and whoever plays better that particular day is going to win.”

To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.

Focus on practical physical priorities. Nurture your health, wellness and energy. Your past performance speaks well for you. Practice for strength.

Junior distance runner Cooper Williams runs the second lap of the 600-meter race during the Gladstein Invitational on Jan. 25 in Gladstein Fieldhouse. Williams took second in the 600-meter during the Meyo Invitational on Feb. 7-8 in South Bend, Indiana.

By Matt Smith mrs30@iu.edu | @mattsmith1401

The IU men’s track and field team earned many different personal records Saturday at the Meyo Invitational in South Bend, Indiana.

Senior Willie Morrison broke the school record in the shot put with a mark of 20.21 meters.

“It felt really good when I saw the distance, because I have never thrown that far before,” Morrison said.

In addition to the school record, Morrison broke the Philippines national record with his throw.

“The mark was never that far for being a national record,” Morrison said. “I knew Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is an 8 — Listen to what others want. You're learning quickly.

Work out the budget for best value.

Avoid distractions and silly arguments. Provide leadership.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is a 9 — You can take extra ground on a personal project. Don't spin your wheels on empty talk.

Actions speak louder than words.

Take charge.

I could throw that far, and once I saw the distance, I got a huge sense of pride.”

Junior Cooper Williams took second in the 600-meter with a time of 1:17.33, only 0.13 seconds behind first place finisher Brian Faust from Purdue. Williams also placed fifth in the 800-meter.

IU’s distance team had an impressive day, taking the top two spots in the 5,000-meter and the mile. Sophomore Jake Gebhardt took first in the 5000-meter with a time of 14:27.21 while fellow sophomore Skylar Stidam finished second. In the mile junior Ben Veatch placed first with a time of 4:04.21. Junior Teddy Browning finished second.

Sophomore Rikkoi BrathLibra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is a 7 — An answer may seem elusive. Peace and quiet soothes your spirit. Meditate on the desired results. Go for substance over symbolism. Imagine them accomplished.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is an 8 — You can advance your career. Listen closely to avoid a communication breakdown.

Words can be deceptive. Make a practical move for long-lasting benefits.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is an 8 — Teamwork can earn lasting results. Don't indulge in gossip or idle chatter. Take action on practical priorities for a shared vision or possibility.
