Awareness through remembrance Vigil recognizes National Overdose Awareness Day By Katelyn Haas haask@umail.iu.edu | @khaas96

Terry Eads speaks outside the Monroe County Courthouse about overdose awareness. After losing a son to an overdose, Eads works to further overdose education.

While science has recognized drug addiction as a disease, society has not, community member Brandon Drake said at a candlelight vigil for drug overdose victims Wednesday night. About 50 Bloomington community members gathered at the Monroe County Courthouse to remember those killed from overdosing, discuss the continuing risk of overdose and work to end the stigma of overdosing. The vigil was a public event and invited all to come with a picture of their loved one and a candle. The event is in concurrence with International

Overdose Awareness Day, a global event on Aug. 31 each year that raises awareness of overdose and reduces the stigma of addiction. Terry Eads, who lost her son to overdose, said this is the second year for the vigil. “It’s to honor and remember those who have passed,” Eads said. “And to honor and support those still fighting the fight.” Drake works to help people with addiction. “August 31 is a day where candlelight vigils are going on everywhere,” Drake said. “It’s a day where, nationally, we work to get rid of the stigma that comes with addiction.” SEE VIGIL, PAGE 6

IU Coach Kevin Wilson’s main concern about the season opener against FIU lies with his own team. During practices this fall, Wilson said the team has gone over each game situation as much as possible. Junior quarterback Richard Lagow has performed well in practice. The defense, under new defensive coordinator Tom Allen, has, as well. But Wilson said he knows there will be some glitches. It’s the first game, and it’s against an experienced FIU squad. He wants to see how Lagow, the defense and the rest respond to adversity. “When the bullets start flying, do you maintain the calm and confidence, make the adjustments you need?” Wilson said. “They’re going to be a really good football team, they got a lot of veterans, and can we walk that two-by-four trust board of ‘now the risks are greater, trust yourself, believe in yourself’.” Wilson brought up the story of Stanford alumna and swimmer Maya DiRado, who won gold in Rio in the 200-meter backstroke. DiRado, who defeated Katinka Hosszu, the “iron lady,” of Hungary, had to convince herself she was capable of winning that race. That’s the mindset the Hoosiers need. “It’s one thing to have confidence,” Wilson said. “Our team (needs to) truly believe and start convincing ourselves, ‘Hey we’ve been playing some good football, we’re a good football team.’ I’m more concerned about that.” Lagow won’t be forced to do too much against the Golden Panthers, as IU’s offense boasts experience and depth elsewhere. Junior Devine Redding leads the running backs and should be able to lead the Hoosier ground game to a similar performance as that of last year when IU defeated FIU, SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE 6 IUFB column, page 5 IU’s defense can’t just talk the talk. They have to walk the walk and play well today against FIU.

IU College Democrats endorse Clinton for president By Lydia Gerike lgerike@umail.iu.edu | @lydi_yeah

Wearing a blue “H” sticker and calling Donald Trump the most “unfit and underqualified candidate to ever run” for president, junior and IU Democrats President Terry Tossman made it clear who the organization would be supporting from the very start of last night’s callout meeting. College Democrats at IU adopts the Democratic party’s platform and endorses its official candidates, Tossman said. This means the organization will support Hillary Clinton in the general election. Despite this official stance, its members have mixed views on the candidate. Tossman, who is voting for Clinton, was a Bernie Sanders supporter

during the primaries. He said the candidates’ similar stances, paired with Clinton’s experience, has now made him an eager voter for the current Democratic nominee. He said he would not be personally endorsing her if he did not truly believe his organization had made the right choice. “Democrats agree on various things, and it’s easy to support a candidate,” Tossman said. Sophomore Sydney Imes had a view similar to Tossman’s. Imes, a transfer student, was drawn to the IU Democrats meeting because of the upcoming election, she said. As another previous Sanders supporter, she said she will be voting for Clinton in November. “I think she’ll do better than Trump, which is all I can ask,”

Imes said. Because of the nearness of the general election, more people have shown interest this year in the organization than in the recent past, Tossman said. Some want to be involved in campaigns, while others show up just to learn more about the issues. For sophomore Konnor Cook, the latter was the case. As transfer student from Ivy Tech, Cook said he has never been involved in a campus political organization before, so he attended the callouts for both IU Republicans and IU Democrats. Although Cook considers himself a moderate, it is unlikely he will vote for Clinton, he said.

IU student dances through Europe to win film contest By Brielle Saggese bsaggese@indiana.edu | @briellesaggese

From the steps of the Roman Pantheon temple, a group of tourists watched the most peculiar street performer, a young man doing the Carlton as the Foals hit “My Number” played from his back pocket. While his performance garnered no applause or tip money, IU senior Jordan Cain was satisfied, having

just shot a short clip for his in-theworks study abroad film. Cain studied in Austria, but during spring break traveled to Italy and Spain as well. After compiling his five-month trip into four minutes of GoPro action, Cain won the Institute for the International Education of Students 2016 Film Festival on Wednesday — standing out from a record number of entries and a growing trend of

student study abroad movies. “You always see people who go abroad put on Facebook like 3,000 or 4,000 pictures, and you know when that happens, people don’t actually go through and look at them,” Cain said. “Instead, I decided to make a video, and so I made this blueprint.” A music education major, Cain first drafted eight-bar segments, each dedicated to either a dance se-

quence, walking shot or short clip of Cain and his friends enjoying their European surroundings. He next formatted each eight-bar count to fit the video’s score, which he calculated to include a precise total of 48 dancing, 25 walking and 31 activity clips. After five months of filming and one long night of iMovie editing, Cain posted the video to various social media accounts and said he was

surprised by the positive reactions it received. “I’m in Kilroy’s suddenly with random people coming up to me, asking, ‘Are you from the video?’ and I’m like, ‘Yeah, you saw it?’” Cain said. “I was really confused because it’s never been like that for me. I’m just a normal person.” Videos as a shareable comSEE STUDY ABROAD, PAGE 6

RPS address dorm restrooms IUPD to wear

body cameras by spring at earliest

By Nyssa Kruse nakruse@iu.edu | @NyssaKruse

When freshman Lauren Ehrmann arrived to Collins Living-Learning Center this semester, a sign hung at the entrance to the coed floor’s community-style restroom. “This bathroom has been liberated from the gender binary,” the sign read. Ehrmann, who lives in the Cravens building of Collins, expected this kind of thing — she chose to live in Collins, after all, the residence hall she said she believes is known for being the most queer-friendly. When her floor decided to make their two bathrooms gender-neutral, it didn’t faze her. But last week, the entirety of Cravens had to reevaluate their bathroom policies, most likely because someone had privately told a staff member they were uncomfortable, Ehrmann said. The building gathered for an educational meeting on gender-neutral bathrooms Sunday and then divided up by floor to rework their community agreements. The residents of Ehrmann’s floor decided in their meeting after the educational session to make one bathroom for males only, while keeping the other gender-neutral — but the sign is now gone. This system of community agreements facilitated by each floor’s resident assistant is the way all IUBloomington sets records for enrollment residence halls on campus address the issue of offering genderneutral bathroom options, said Cedric Harris, associate director with residence life for Residential Programs and Services. RAs are not required to address bathroom neutrality as an option during ini-

tial floor meetings. Anyone is free to mention the topic during Welcome Week when the floor establishes its community agreement concerning things such as communal space use and quiet hours. If no one addresses this possibility, though, the floor’s status quo is kept, which usually means gender-segregated bathrooms. Harris said in an email if no one has a problem with the current bathroom designation, there’s no need to consider changing anything. “On the other hand, we do not want staff members to be perceived as if they are forcing a decision to change the bathroom designation,” he added. George Hatfield lives in a men’s house in Wright Residence Center. He said

there’s only one bathroom on the floor, and it’s designated for men. No one from his floor mentioned the possibility of changing the bathroom to be genderneutral, he said, but their floor did create a policy for female guests. If a female guest needs to use the bathroom, the resident she is visiting will escort her there, he said. Moira Kehoe lives in Forest Quadrangle on a coed floor, and she said no one mentioned the possibility of creating gender neutral bathrooms areas on her floor. Forest has community-style bathrooms. Some recently-renovated residence halls, such as Teter Residence Center, have individual “pod” bathrooms, which eliminate any question surrounding gendered bathrooms, and

all residence halls have a gender-neutral bathroom somewhere in the residence center, usually in common areas, said Barry Magee, associate director with residential life for RPS. Magee said future constructions and renovations will likely have individual bathrooms, including Memorial Hall, which will be converted back into a residence hall as RPS’s next building project. The choice of single-occupancy bathrooms is not just to eliminate the uncertainty that might come with the decision to make a community bathroom gender-neutral, Magee said. A lot of people prefer individual stalls for privacy, too. “We’ve found most students want those,” Magee said. “It’s not just students who are gender-variant.”

IU-Bloomington sets enrollment, diversity records From IDS reports

IU set records for credit hours and the number of Hispanic/Latino, AsianAmerican, minority and international students, according to an Aug. 31 press release. As of Aug. 29, total enrollment on IU’s seven campuses was 106,734 students taking a recordbreaking 1,249,546 credit hours. At IU-Bloomington, there are 43,213 students, up 1.5 percent from last

year. IU-Bloomington set records for the number of degree-seeking students as well as the number of Hispanic/Latino, AfricanAmerican, Asian-American and international students, as well as students of two or more races. “Our record international and Hispanic enrollment is testament to our strong recruiting efforts and reflect the increased globalization of higher education and the growing diversity of our state,” IU President Mi-

chael McRobbie said in the release. IU-Bloomington also made campus records for first year students. The average grade-point average was 3.79 and the combined SAT/ACT score was 1223, according to the release. These students come from 41 U.S. states and 36 different countries. These records show the results of IU’s Bicentennial Strategic Plan. The plan, which was approved in Dec. 2014 as a vision to bring IU into its

third century, prioritizes student success by keeping tuition and fees low, providing financial assistance, helping students graduate and enrolling more diverse students, according to the release. “Our enrollment remains strong in large part because of our success in keeping an IU education affordable, accessible, relevant and of high quality,” McRobbie said in the release.

LEARNING A NEW CULTURE Jordan Lynton from Asian American Studies explains her program to a student at the Asian Cultural Center welcome reception, which took place at the President’s room in the IMU Wednesday afternoon.

The IU Police Department released plans Wednesday to implement body-worn cameras. Though students likely won’t see the devices on officer uniforms until the spring semester, the process has reached the beginning of the end. A Body-Worn Camera Evaluation Committee submitted an official recommendation report March 14, after 15 months of investigating the risks and benefits of the tool. Though body-worn cameras had been the topic of informal IUPD discussion for years, the formal committee consisting of students, police officers, attorneys, faculty with expertise in criminal justice and IU’s Chief Privacy Officer and Superintendent of Public Safety was not formed until shortly after the shooting of Michael Brown. The committee, which formed in April 2015, conducted surveys and focus groups, field-tested the cameras and consulted with other departments to determine the best course of action. “Because of the environment we have today in policing across the country, and a desire for communities and police agencies both to be more transparent with each other, I think body-worn cameras will be a valuable tool to help us maintain trust and build positive relationships with our community,” IUPD Deputy Chief Doug Johnson said. The committee found in its research that stakeholders like students and faculty tended to say the relationship between IUPD and the community is healthy, and there was no immediate demand for body-worn cameras. “Not to say something terrible couldn’t happen, but we’ve not really been one of those police agencies that has stirred lots of controversy in the past,” said Bob True, IU interim superintendent of public safety. True said he thinks the campus community will see a positive police force through the lenses of the body-worn cameras. “If we don’t, it’s there to show exactly what did happen,” he said. Instead of documenting from the start of an officer’s shift to the end, as some departments operate, the committee determined IUPD officers should only record during most interactions with members of the public, using their professional judgment to determine when to turn off their cameras. It will depend on whether officers believe the interaction is purely casual or if they need to protect privacy and confidentiality interests. In addition, though notifying people that they are being recorded is not usually required by law, the committee said officers should notify people if reasonably possible. Exceptions include conducting lawful investigations, searches or arrests, responding to emergencies and handling interactions in which the officer discerns notification would likely escalate the situation. “Some people say the officers won’t like it because it’s going to show them doing wrong or it’s going to show what they really do,” True

said. “But what we’ve found with the mobile video is that it actually shows that they try to do a good job, and it’s actually even protected them a few times.” Years ago, he said, there was an incident in Indianapolis in which a person accused an officer of breaking his vehicle’s tail light during a traffic stop. However, incar camera footage revealed both tail lights were intact for the entirety of the interaction. Body-worn cameras would serve a similar purpose, holding both officers and the public accountable to video evidence. “Situations where the police are involved are so fluid that it’ll never be a perfect view,” True said. “But at least it’ll be a document of what happened.” According to Johnson, the video captured on bodyworn cameras would also be an important training tool for IUPD and other departments who could learn from IUPD’s practices. In accordance with Indiana state law, the department will hold video at least 190 days and will edit it so that individuals and the media may legally view it. The department does not yet understand how much work that will be, True said. They may handle the video with current staff, figure out better ways to do it or dedicate a staff member to managing video and storage. Storage is the big-ticket item in the initiative, True said. According to Margie Smith-Simmons, an IU spokesperson, the committee estimated a cost of less than $200,000 to deploy cameras across all campuses. The cost of anticipated maintenance and replacement is currently being determined. She said the funding was a special appropriation from the University and was approved by President Michael McRobbie, as the initiative involves multiple campuses. “We’re willing to accept the financial costs, understanding that what we gain back in capability and in measures of trust and transparency are worth it,” Johnson said. “It shows that the University is dedicated to open, fair, professional and transparent policing.” Before the cameras can roll out, first on the IUBloomington and IU-Purdue University Indianapolis campuses, IUPD must select and purchase the equipment and storage, set up software, determine specific officer guidelines and train officers. Smith-Simmons said the goal is to begin using bodyworn cameras by the spring semester, but the timeline depends on many variables. Looking forward, bodyworn cameras will be assessed annually and face a comprehensive review after five years. Yet they are only one piece of a larger policepublic relationship. “We’re not going to look at this as the only means of transparency for the IU Police Department,” True said. “We try to build friendships and connectivity with lots of groups around the campuses. We try to be as outgoing as we can with information. We’re still going to be looking at other ways to be more transparent, besides the fact that we’ve got cameras hanging on our uniforms.”

Conservatives discuss election issues By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman

Bill Pascoe illustrated a difference between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump through the presidential candidates’ campaign merchandise. “Hillary’s shirts say, ‘Clinton for president,’” said Pascoe, legislative coordinator for the Tea Party Patriots. “Trump’s say, ‘Trump for president. Make America great again.’ He’s the one with the message.” Pascoe spoke about the national election and the state of the Tea Party at a Grassroots Conservatives meeting Wednesday night at the Monroe County Library. Pascoe said America is now divided into a caste system with two groups: those in the Washington beltway and those outside it. A politician’s job is to make sure their boss gets reelected, and their main goal is to be on the appropriations committee in Congress, Pascoe said. “Washington is about one thing and one thing only – spending money,” Pascoe said. “Specifically, spending other people’s money.” Pascoe said he is a conservative before a Republican. He discounted the Republican Party for participating in gerrymandering and not following the system of checks and balances established by the Founding Fathers in the United States Constitution. “What made (the Constitution) magnificent is that it

The key to happiness is love and compassion, a monk at the Gaden KhachoeShing Monastery said. The monk, Arja Rinpoche, led more than 30 people in a Buddhism lesson and meditation session Wednesday night. The Essential Buddhism classes are free and open to people of every faith, and no previous knowledge is required. The session opened with chanting, and those who did not know the prayers by heart could read along. Later, Rinpoche shared and explained Buddhist teachings. He spoke about kindness and said every human being should be viewed as a relative. “We have to think of all sentient beings as our mothers,” he said. Rinpoche said everyone seeks happiness, and treating all of humankind lovingly can help people attain that happiness. People must help those in need, but the help

is premised on the idea that man is flawed,” Pascoe said. Pascoe said these flaws are particularly evident within the current Congress. Forty-six members of the U.S. House of Representatives are not returning to the next Congress, Pascoe said. He added there is a “Zombie Congress” in place through December that “is full of the walking dead.” The Grassroots Conservatives also discussed the campaign to block Syrian refugee placement in Bloomington. Robert Hall, head of the

Grassroots Conservatives, said the county needs to hold a public hearing so Bloomington residents can learn what is going on with the Syrian refugee placement program. Amy Jen, Bloomington resident, said the U.S. needs to consider how and if it can assist refugees. “We love to help people, any people, period,” Jen said. “But do we have the capacity?” Bill Scott, Bloomington resident, said that the refugees must be evaluated to

ensure none are Islamic militants. “There are one or more ISIS members in every Syrian group,” Scott said. Syrian refugees go through additional screening on top of typical refugee screenings, which include biometrics and a lengthy overseas in-person interview, according the U.S. Department of State. In March, the Bloomington Common Council unanimously passed a resolution to welcome Syrian refugees into the community and

oppose Gov. Mike Pence’s statements against refugee resettlement in the state. John Warkentin, a member of the Grassroots Conservatives, said he no longer has faith in the Republican Party and supports the Tea Party. Warkentin said with the “refugee problem” and upcoming elections, he is worried about the future of America as he was after Pearl Harbor. “I’m more concerned now than I was on December 8, 1941,” Warkentin said.

should be pure, Rinpoche said. Nothing should be expected in return. “Buddhist teaching is very complicated, very profound,” Rinpoche said. He said he tries to use analogies from daily life to help make the lessons simple. He said his wish is that in December, at the end of the course, students will be able to teach those lessons. He hopes they share their experiences with others. One of the students, Karl Wuthrich, said he has been coming to the monastery for three years. He said he was addicted to drugs and alcohol before he started practicing Buddhism. “Once upon a time, I was a very unhappy person,” Wuthrich said. He was at his lowest point when he thought of the Dalai Lama, he said. He began studying Buddhism, and his life changed. “It was like getting struck by lightning,” he said. He now attends class almost every week. He said he

encourages loved ones to join him in hopes that they find the same kind of joy that saved him. At the end of each course, Rinpoche leads the students in periods of meditation. The original intent of the class was to teach students about different kinds of meditation, he said. The goal of

the practice is to shut off the five senses and to mirror the tranquility that comes with sleep. To achieve this, students must strive for mindfulness and alertness, Rinpoche said. He said people should check in and remind themselves to ignore the outside world and look inward.

“Let the mind stay calm,” he said. Videos of each class are recorded and posted on the Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center’s website. “Once we have compassion and a sense of love, no matter who is our enemy and who is our friend, we will have love,” Rinpoche said.

The art of Zen is encouraged at all stages of life by the Buddhist community, both locally and internationally. The Sanshin Zen Community of Bloomington will offer a oneday retreat Oct. 1 designed to appeal to both beginners in Zen practice and those with some prior experience. “For beginners, it’s a great introduction to Zen practice, and to Sanshin,” Sanshin vice abbot Hoko Karnegis, the leader of the retreat event, said. “If people are new to our sitting practice (zazen), we review the basics of the posture and what to do with body, breath and mind.” The event will last from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. and will include Zen meditation, brief talks, discussion, a vegetarian lunch, indoor and outdoor walking meditation and yoga designed to help with seated meditation practice. Guided instruction during the Zen meditation is available if needed, Karnegis said. “We also go over our style of walking meditation, which I think of as a bridge — a way to practice taking our zazen mind off the cushion and out into the world and into our everyday activities,” Karnegis said. The Sanshin Zen Community is an international Buddhist sangha founded in 1996 by Shohaku Okumura, a Soto Zen priest and respected translator of the thirteenth-century Japanese Zen master, Eihei Dogen Zenji. Based at Sanshin-ji in Bloomington, Sanshin exists to provide practice of zazen in the style of Kosho Uchiyamaroshi, informed by thorough study of Zenji’s teachings and communal work. Zazen in Japanese literally means “seated meditation,” but the meaning varies from community to community. In Bloomington, in particular, it serves as a means of insight into the nature of existence. Seated meditation allows people to focus on themselves as one being in a world full as individuals versus communities. Sanshin offers opportunities for daily practice, weekly Dharma talks, monthly retreats and a three-month ango (intensive practice period). The cost for the retreat is $25. Interested participants can register online or in person at the temple. “I hope participants become comfortable just being at Sanshin, knowing how to move around in the space, what to expect when they come back and feeling that they are welcome whenever they might choose to join us,” Karnegis said.

EDITORIAL BOARD

IN CHEESE WE TRUST 759 million pounds of surplus cheese. It’s time to make America grate again. Prepare for the #CheeseBailout2k17. It will soon become a trending tag on Twitter accompanied by a mixture of reviews. It is no surprise that Americans love their cheese. The surprise, however, stems from the idea that American government loves cheese so much that we are willing to spend $20 million on it. No, the government isn’t buying cheese just because they want to use the American staple to make a giant plate of nachos. The fact of the matter is the demand for cheese has actually decreased, yet the production of cheese has greatly increased. There is simply too much cheese in America that isn’t being bought. America’s oversupply of

cheese is a result of our buyers (domestic and foreign) looking elsewhere because the market is selling it at a cost they aren’t willing to pay. This is weird, though, because according to CNBC, the price of dairy and cheese has dropped over the last two years. The USDA plans on distributing this cheese to homeless shelters that usually do not have enough dairy products. It is refreshing to see excess food being put to good use rather than being tossed. We are glad that this strange situation will have some positive results, but we can’t help but wonder: why are we bailing out an industry that is “failing?”

Shouldn’t we let the market work itself out? The dairy industry may think this can be a reoccurring solution. This subject is almost laughable if you just think about America buying 11 million pounds of cheese. However, when you think about the consequences and benefits of buying said 11 million pounds of cheese, it’s a more serious situation. Despite the government buying quite a hefty amount of cheese, they barely made a dent in the surplus the dairy industry is struggling to deal with. The increase in dairy production wouldn’t be so daunting if dairy livestock could double for other purposes. Because dairy livestock are so specific, though,

this is not the case, and the industry is left with the option to sink or downsize. Or they can hope the government will show up every year to bail them out. The dairy market ultimately needs to downsize to prevent such a surplus from happening again. But . . . they did downsize. Twelve hundred dairy farms shut down after this surplus became a problem. While it was not a great amount of farms closing up shop, an attempt was still made. As revenue has dropped 35 percent in the last few years despite the 3 percent increase in production. On top of which, the market is

trying to figure out what will happen to the cheese already set out for purchase. Some believe the price will go down due to the high supply, but there is also a possibility that it will increase again. Another option the government has for the huge surplus is donating it to other countries, but that almost becomes more complicated than having 55 million pounds of excess cheese. In case you were wondering, (we all know you were) the cheese we have the most surplus of is American cheese. Then cheddar. So if you’re a worldly rare or stinky cheese lover hoping the surplus would bring about many delicious artisan cheese opportunities, you’re stuck with American.

Get some sleep

East Chicago soil is a toxic playground

A typical conversation in one of my classes goes something like this. “Oh man, I didn’t get to bed ‘til three yesterday. I was volunteering and had to work on homework for hours afterwards.” “God, I know. I didn’t sleep last night because I was just so busy with all my extracurriculars and school.” When did it become okay to normalize exhaustion, and why do we all play into the subconscious competition that being busy all the time is the only way to live life? Between racking up extracurriculars and grades to put on resumes and job applications, we don’t have time to notice how horribly our behavior actually affects us. Not only physically, but mentally. Between classes, work and extracurriculars, most college students don’t have time to properly combat exhaustion. Yet, we keep telling ourselves that we’re not doing enough. When the decision to join a club or pick up an extra internship could be the difference between an accepted grad school application or a job after college, we place importance on making sure that we are busy every single hour of the day. I have fallen victim to this many times. If those other kids could handle a crazy social life and five classes and ten clubs, why couldn’t I? Last year, I fell so badly into this trap that I never took the time to stop and ask if anything I was doing made me happy. Exhaustion isn’t fun. It isn’t something that should be romanticized as part of a typical college life, nor is it something that we should accept as part of the norm. Being tired all the time decreases your mental

capacities and prevents you from working as efficiently or as productively as possible. The National Institute of Health found that when pharmaceutical students did not sleep enough, they had lower grades and average test scores. Moreover, a lack of sleep has been correlated with a increased risk of Alzheimer’s and obesity. Correlation doesn’t necessarily mean causation, but we all know how sleep deprivation makes us feel. We’re eternally exhausted, and can’t focus on anything for long periods of time. God forbid we try to function without a minimal amount of caffeine or a nap in public. Why are we willing to do this to ourselves? I’m far from innocent when it comes to this problem. I spent most of last year extolling how much I could do and yet was so deeply unhappy with everything that I was doing. It’s still the start of the semester. We all have the ability to turn around tour bad habits from last year. We can choose to do less — not nothing at all — but less. We can choose to enjoy what we do. We all have the ability to help ourselves, and the best way to do that is by recognizing that we can’t do it all.

For the children living in the federally funded West Calumet Housing Complex, the skies are blue, the grass is green and the soil in which they’re playing on is more lead-infested than ever. I’d have to agree with the Washington Post calling it “the next Flint.” The fact of the matter is that toddlers put just about everything they can get their hands on into their mouths. When playing outside, dirt is perhaps the most accessible thing. In the 1920s, the U.S. Smelter and Lead Refinery, Inc., occupied a 79-acre tract of land in East Chicago, Lake County, Indiana, according to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. Additionally, the site also dealt with copper, silver and a secondary smelter for recovering lead from scrap metal and automobile battery extraction. A large stockpile of leadcontaining flue dust also covered a three-to-five-acre area. None of this sounds

kosher to me. The dust was eventually removed in 1992. Seven years later, the Corrective Action Management Unit was built in order to demolish buildings and bury the lead-infested soil. In 2011, ASTDR estimated that around 11,818 individuals occupied the mile radius of the former worksite, blindly living on top of a graveyard of toxins. It wasn’t until this May that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency decided to inform East Chicago mayor Anthony Copeland that the top six inches of soil in the yards of families living in West Calumet had up to 30 times more lead than the level considered safe for children to play in. This is where shit hit the fan. At the end of July, the Housing Authority announced the impending demolishment of the 346unit housing complex, displacing about 1,000 individuals, a majority of them children. The U.S. Department of

Housing and Urban Development is allocating $1.9 million to relocate the frazzled residents. In an editorial published by the Times of Northwest Indiana, it is clear that they were infuriated by the lack of transparency of the EPA. This should be expected – up until May, the EPA hadn’t informed the mayor of these tests at all. “Was it wise to build a school in an area already known for industrial contamination?” “Even decades ago, was it appropriate to locate a low-income housing complex in a former industrial site where contamination, at least to some degree, was known?” Currently, citizens of East Chicago are being tested for lead. According to AP, out of the 400 preliminary blood tests, 29 came back with high levels, 21 of which were children under the age of six. This is unacceptable and more importantly, avoidable. What causes civic plan-

ners and leaders to completely avoid looking down the rabbit hole of future complications – like building affordable housing on the grounds of a former leadplant? Doing things because they’re cost effective or convenient for the time being isn’t going to fly anymore. State Sen. Lonnie Randolph, a resident of East Chicago told the AP, “someone dropped the ball somewhere.” This cannot be an excuse. Let’s not forget, this problem isn’t going to go away anytime soon. The children will be haunted by the negligence that has occurred, and it’s time that we make those responsible for this tragedy accountable for their deplorable actions. jlkarl@indiana.edu @jkarl26

GETTING IN THE GROOVE

ABC is capitalizing on Lochte Rio scandal One of the lasting headlines of the Rio Olympics was the scandal involving swimming star Ryan Lochte and his teammates James Feigen, Jack Conger and Gunnar Bentz. The four swimmers filed a police report Aug. 14 stating they’d been robbed at gunpoint after attending a party. It later turned out that the incident did not happen at all. Instead, the Brazil police reported that the four Americans had, in actuality, vandalized a gas station and engaged in hostilities with security guards there. So the swimmers issued apologies all-around. As you might expect, their apologies were the typical platitudes of privileged, fallen-from-grace-athletes . You know, confessions that are packed with emotional professions of regret (in Lochte’s case, he was “truly, 110 percent sorry”), confessions of immaturity and, of course, the old standby – the blaming of drunkenness for their behavior. In short, there was hard-

ly anything original in the fallout of this scandal. The athletes did penance for their crime. In the case of Feigen, he had to donate $11,000 to a Brazilian charity to avoid prosecution by the Brazilian government for the scandal. As one might expect, the media soon moved on to the next big story, as did the rest of the public — including Lochte, who is now blissfully waltzing past the scandal. Literally. As it turns out, Lochte will be joining the cast of “Dancing with the Stars” this fall, along with fellow Rio Olympian Laurie Hernandez and several other celebrities. Lochte is not the person to blame in this situation. He’s not doing anything out of the ordinary in profiting from his fame. No, instead we should be censuring ABC, the network that is still allowing Lochte to still be on the show despite his horrendous behavior. They had been negotiating for

Lochte to be a contestant before the Olympics even started, and his wrongdoing, as it seems, is no reason to lose out on TV ratings. One might even argue that he became a more lucrative contestant after his Rio scandal. What did Lochte have to say about this new endeavour? “Hopefully, this show will definitely bring out my personality, you know, laid back, go-with-the-flow, (a) loving and caring person that likes to have fun and just enjoys the moment,” he said. I think that many would agree with me when I say that Lochte’s Rio wives’ tales did not, in fact, bring out the more admirable traits of his personality. It should also go without saying that Lochte is a bit on the, uh, dull side (for further proof, check out any clip of his short-lived reality TV show, “What Would Ryan Lochte Do?”, which only aired for about a month in 2013). But this is reaching new

levels of stupidity, even for him. The upshot is this: The Rio games were monumental for Brazil and the rest of South America. Admittedly, there were complications leading up to the Olympics. In the end, though, the 2016 Rio games serve as a meaningful step toward moving past the narrative of drugs and crime that plagues South American countries. Lochte and the other swimmers, in their drunken stupidity, put the focus back on that narrative. And they should be shamed for it and made to feel the consequence of their actions – not allowed to sashay past them back into fame and fortune. Shame on ABC for allowing this to happen. acgroove@indiana.edu

Coach defeats doubt in Rio Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu @TaylorRLehman

When Ray Looze — current IU swimming and diving coach and 2016 USA Swimming assistant coach — headed to Atlanta with eight of his swimmers and divers, the 49-year-old didn’t know what to expect. They were flying to his first Olympic experience — the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro. It was his athletes’ first experiences as well. With them in Atlanta were past medalists, coaches who’ve gone through before and distractions any first-time coach would need to filter through for his athletes to find success. Still, IU swimmers won six medals — four gold — and finished 32nd on the overall medal count as an individual participant — defeating 46 of the 78 countries that won medals. “I don’t think anybody saw that coming,” Looze said. “The coaches were joking with me because we were all rookies, and they were all like, ‘I wish I got to experience my rookie season like that.’” Looze said the IU swimmers practiced well and did good things while training for the Olympics, but there were times he thought the Hoosiers could be in over their heads. IU’s coaching staff knew last summer a coach needed to be there so its swimmers could succeed. Being there for the ups and downs directly affected performance, Looze said. But a coach that hasn’t been to the Olympics needs an adjustment period too, and Looze said he was constantly making mistakes in Rio de Janerio and began to doubt himself. “We were in the pool after everybody else, time and time again,” Looze said. “Some of the coaches would come over and be like, ‘Well, are you gonna let them out?’ That’s a good example of had you not been there, whoever was there would have let them out of the water and said, ‘You’re doing something that’s not going to work.’” Looze said he went into the Games knowing he and his athletes would have fun, but he knew he had to give everything he had toward enhancing his swimmers’ chances of winning. Other coaches, including rivals, recruited some, but Looze said his swimmers deserved his undivided attention. That’s what he provided, and then they won. IU alumnus Cody Miller won first, a bronze in the 100-meter breaststroke, and his victory lit a fire in his fellow Hoosier swimmers, Looze said. “I’ve never seen an athlete celebrate a bronze medal with more passion,” Looze said about Miller. “I now know why people got attracted to that. We got to hold Cody’s, because that’s the first one we could get our hands on. It was so honest and real what that meant to that young man.” Then IU junior Blake Pieroni won a gold medal in the 400-meter relay. IU sophomore Lilly King did the same in what Looze called a “good versus evil” 100-meter breaststroke against Russian Yulia Efimova. Miller then won a gold in the 400-meter medley relay and King won another gold in the 400-meter medley relay. Junior diver Michael Hixon won silver in the 3-meter synchronized dive, and IU junior Kennedy Goss won bronze for Canada in the 800-meter freestyle relay. Before 2016, no Hoosier swimmer had won a medal for the United States since 1979. Now with an increased attention on his IU program, Looze said nothing will be the same for any of the IU Olympic coaches and athletes, and that the program is in good hands. This all happened despite there being doubt when he made that trip to Atlanta. “I didn’t want to go into that meet not knowing if you were ever going to get back without any regrets,” Looze said. “We feel really, really fortunate that it turned out the way it did because it could have gone the other way really easily.”

HOME GROWN

Jeremiah Gutjahr is making a difference on the team he grew up watching.

When you try to show a Bloomington kid the west coast, well, he’s just going to come back to Bloomington in the end. That’s how it worked out for IU soccer sophomore midfielder Jeremiah Gutjahr. The “townie” who grew up in Bloomington and attended Bloomington High School North just couldn’t say no to the school he’s supported his entire life. “It was hard to go away from IU,” Gutjahr said. “Both my parents went to Stanford, so I felt that a little bit. It’s a great school, I visited there, but I just couldn’t leave Indiana. I love Bloomington and I

love the guys, love the coaching staff, love everything, and I ended up here and I’m happy about it.” Gutjahr’s father, Paul, teaches English, American Studies and Religious Studies at IU, and Jeremiah said they came to games throughout his childhood. When asked about being able to wear ‘Crimson and Cream,’ he lit up and said it’s awesome. “I’ve grown up here and my dad works at the University, so him and I came to games as long as I can remember,” Gutjahr said. “When they were winning championships in 2003 and 2004, and for as long as I can remember, I’ve been coming to games ,and to now play, it’s pretty cool.”

Gutjahr didn’t have the largest role as a freshman in 2015, but did play in 17 matches and tallied one assist. During his freshman season, he got experience elswhere too. The midfielder got the opportunity to play for the U.S. Under-20 Men’s National Team and to participate in the Mercedes-Benz Elite Cup in Stuttgart, Germany, last October. He had to miss time with his college team, but said he was able to bring a lot of things back to Bloomington with him. “I think it was just how high of a level it was over there and now bringing it back here — holding guys accountable, making sure they’re holding me account-

able and then just the internal confidence as well,” Gutjahr said. IU Coach Todd Yeagley said they almost have to temper his expectations because they don’t want to overwhelm him this early in his career. Gutjahr played so much soccer with U.S. youth teams and MLS youth teams in prior years and has a well of experience to dip into. In 2016, the midfielder started the first two regular season games of the season, but Yeagley did mention there is room for improvement. “I think Jeremiah is going to play a huge role,” Yeagley said. “I think for Jeremiah, he’d be the first to say he didn’t have the best weekend

overall, but he still was really effective. We have really high expectations for him only still into his sophomore year and not starting last year.” For Gutjahr, the expectations are there for him, but he doesn’t try to think about them. He knows what he needs to do, and, in 2016, his coaches and teammates will continue to push him and believe in him, and that’s exactly what he wants. “I just try to keep working hard and hold myself to high standards,” Gutjahr said. “I’m pretty internally motivated, so I want to give it the best I can for them, but they push me and they hold me accountable, and that’s big. They believe in me which is huge.”

Members of IU’s defense celebrate after forcing Purdue to punt on Nov. 28, 2015, at Ross-Ade Stadium. The Hoosiers won 54-36.

IU football’s defense must prove itself worthy of our trust Tom Allen talks about love. Specifically, the phrase “love each other” — a mantra his players have adopted since he arrived. “It’s all about making it about that guy and not about me,” Allen said. “There’s a brotherhood of genuine love and concern for each other. I think that makes a difference.” It better. The Hoosier defense has held IU back the past few seasons, and that’s why IU Coach Kevin Wilson brought in Allen and his attacking 4-2-5 scheme. We’ve seen this songand-dance before. Brian Knorr arrived in 2014 to bring aggressiveness and change to the IU defense, implementing the 3-4 scheme. In Knorr’s two years, the defense did not get any better. Prior to his arrival, it gave up an average of 38.8 points per game in 2013. Last season, IU gave up an average of just under 38 points per game. No improvement. Allen preaches aggressiveness and takeaways — buzz words that get you excited about what’s he’s bringing to the defense. But scheme can only take you so far. The talent has to make up the rest of the difference. At all three levels of the defense, the Hoosiers potentially have difference makers.

Junior Greg Gooch and sophomore Jacob Robinson can cause havoc on the line, while junior linebackers Tegray Scales and Marcus Oliver should star in the middle. The much-maligned secondary returns boatloads of experience. They all believe the defense will better this year. “People are tired of losing,” Oliver said. “People are tired of dragging that name around with them. People are tired of being looked at like that. The biggest difference from any other year is the belief and the confidence people are gaining through this camp.” They say they are using the past as motivation — a chip on their shoulder — to propel them forward in 2016. All that is window dressing for one simple fact: it has to change starting Thursday night against Florida International. FIU frankly doesn’t have a good offense and IU’s revamped defense should not allow the Golden Panthers get anything going. We will learn more about this defense when it faces tougher opponents, but if things start to go wrong, what will this unit do? “There will be adversity on Thursday night,” Allen said. “When is it going to happen, I don’t know, but it’s going to happen . . . Who

do you lean on, what do you draw to when things go wrong?” Things shouldn’t go that wrong Thursday, but, if they do, that’s not a good sign. This is a bottom-tier Conference USA team IU’s defense should be able to dominate. In the past few seasons, when things have gone wrong for this defense, they tend to spiral downward. That can’t happen if this team wants to be successful. Allen is confident this year’s defense can overcome the here-we-go-again mentality, but it’s going to take more than just talk. “You have to be put in that situation again and have to be able to have success different than in the past to sear that belief,” Allen said. The past looms large for this Hoosier defense, but with a new defensive coordinator and a strong foundation of talent, they should finally take a step forward. “It’s all about us and what we are going to do now,” Oliver said. They’ve all talked about love. Starting Thursday, they begin their quest to show you why you should love the Hoosier defense again. aphussey@indiana.edu

modity especially lend themselves to study abroad programs because plenty of students want to see what the experience is like, said Thomas DeCarlo, communications coordinator at the Office of Overseas Study. “These videos are like being in another culture, and for students who are considering to study abroad, they get that glimpse of experiencing a culture through the eyes of someone who is traveling and studying,” DeCarlo said. “Any unique experience we can share like that is a good thing.”

» VIGIL

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 He said the event is a place for people in recovery as well as people who have lost loved ones to addiction. He said parents of both recently killed and recovering addicts are often at vigils such as these. “Last year, somebody lost their son, she hadn’t talked about it at all in the year since,” Drake said. “But she got up and spoke with all of us about her son not being able to get help when he wanted it.” Chris Albert, a member of the Indiana Recovery Alliance, said his organization offers access to opiate overdose reversal treatments like Narcan in southern Indiana.

Junior Rachel Brown shared her own GoPro rendition of a summer spent biking, camel riding and bungee jumping through Australia. “I was really interested in documenting my entire study abroad experience because you look back on three months and wonder where all the time went, but making a video really concisely puts everything in perspective,” Brown said. As much as he enjoyed sharing the video with others, Cain said he also wanted to create something that would serve as a personal reminder of his travels. “Video is always something you can look back at,”

he said. “Even when I got home, when I started to miss being abroad, I would just look at the video and remember what I did and think about how amazing it all was.” Now focusing on his final year in Bloomington, Cain said he plans to film his future trips because of the positivity surrounding his last video. “I didn’t know how to make or edit a movie or even dance, but that’s the whole point — doing something I’m not necessarily good at, but that’s so much fun,” he said. “It’s expressing myself in a way that made me content and being able to share that with other people.”

First responders and some police departments are using the drug on victims, and providing more access will help the anti-stigma movement, Albert said. “We need a collaboration of treatment options, decriminalization funding and overall harm reduction,” Albert said. Albert led the beginning of the vigil with a demonstration of how to treat someone who overdoses, including use of treatment options and rescue breathing. He said loss of breathing in the overdosed person is the main concern. The vigil had multiple speakers, including Collin T., who asked that his last name be omitted. Collin said it was difficult

to speak in public because he lived much of his life in secret, but he is grateful he had the support he needed to recover. “I’m extremely grateful to be here,” Collin said. “For me, gratitude is an action, it’s not just a word. I truly believe I’m only as sick as my secrets.” Eads also spoke after the demonstration about the loss of her son. Eads has had two sons in recovery: Brad, who died two years ago, and Jason, who is currently in recovery. “For all you parents out here, we, too, have traveled this bumpy road of addiction with our kids,” Eads said. “We always love them even in the darkest of times. We don’t always like them, but we always love them.”

36-22. Behind former Hoosier Jordan Howard and current No. 1 back Redding, IU amassed 205 yards on the ground. Senior Ricky Jones and junior Simmie Cobbs were two of now Washington Redskins quarterback Nate Sudfeld’s main targets against the Golden Panthers in 2015, and now with former FIU defensive back Richard Leonard in the NFL, IU could be poised for even better performances. Still, the game will come down to how the defense performs against an FIU offense that returns many key players. Junior quarterback Alex McGough is back after setting FIU single-season records in passing attempts, completions, yards and touchdowns. McGough threw for 249 yards, three touchdowns and one interception against IU in Bloomington last year. Receiver Thomas Owens represents a target in McGough’s arsenal who dominated the Hoosiers with two touchdowns and 166 yards on nine receptions. One pick was the difference in the game though, as then-freshman defensive back Jameel Cook Jr. intercepted a McGough pass

» DEMOCRATS

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “There’s so much scandal involving Hillary Clinton I can’t bring myself to vote for her,” Cook said. Even though he has not completely ruled her out, he said he is split between Donald Trump and Gary Johnson as of now. For others, the choice was much clearer. Senior Morgan Murphy, an off-and-on three-year member of IU Democrats, said she has thought Clinton was the most qualified since the primaries. She said she is involved in IU Democrats because of the importance of this

and ran 96 yards back for a touchdown, which stopped a drive that could have tied the game at 29. Allen has drilled the importance of takeaways into his defense since he arrived at IU, and he wants his players to be on the ball all game long. “They’ve got to make plays. I haven’t tackled anybody in 24 years, okay, not legally, anyways,” Allen said. “They’ve got to make those plays.” IU’s secondary has more experience now than a year ago and should prove less porous and susceptible to big plays. The linebackers do, too. Juniors Marcus Oliver and Tegray Scales, as well as senior T.J. Simmons, will aid a relatively inexperienced defensive line in putting a halt to FIU’s run

game and rushing the quarterback. The Hoosiers will be tasked with tackling familiar players in Miami, Florida, and Allen said he thinks they’re ready to finally tackle someone not wearing a Hoosier jersey. Senior running back Clyde Newton, a former linebacker, is confident in IU’s chances, especially having played the Golden Panthers before. “Playing them over the years, it’s kind of — their offense, I’ve watched it all the time and it doesn’t really change,” Newton said. “When I look at their defense it’s kind of like, I know that defense. So, it’s kind of like alright, they’re going to bring blitzes, they’re going to bring this and that. I know that already.”

year’s races. “I believe there’s a lot of important elections in Indiana right now, and I think college students could be a deciding factor, which is scary because college students don’t vote,” Murphy said. Senior Kegan Ferguson, president of College Democrats of Indiana, said IU students must vote at all levels because November’s ballot includes races for Indiana governor and state and national congressional positions in addition to United States president. Through his position, he has worked with several campaigns in the recent months, including Clinton’s,

Ferguson said. Ferguson has supported her since the primaries. He said he believes she will be able to beat Trump and pass a Democratic agenda through congress better than Sanders could. “I agreed with Bernie’s ideals in the primaries, but I think pragmatism is the most important thing in politics,” Ferguson said. He said he thinks Trump, with his racist and sexist policies, is hurting Democrats across the board, but said he is optimistic about the state’s outcome in November. “I think we’re about to see a blue wave in Indiana this year,” Ferguson said.

W | COMMENTARY

Wilder’s Wonka is unreplicable By Greg Gottfried gigottfr@indiana.edu | @gott31

“The suspense is terrible ... I hope it’ll last.” I’ve never met Gene Wilder. I’m guessing most of us haven’t. Yet somehow we all have. We’ve met him many times: He’s Dr. Frankenstein in “Young Frankenstein,” Jim in “Blazing Saddles,” Leo Bloom in “The Producers.” But for me he will always be Willy Wonka. “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” came out in 1971, but it has subsisted and penetrated our culture in a permanent way. The film, based on Roald Dahl’s book, is able to replicate the nostalgia, fear and euphoria almost solely due to Wilder. There’s no one else with the comedic timing and gravitas that could have pulled off such a role. Wonka is a bit scary — as evidenced by the psychedelic boat ride. But he’s also witty, bitter and outlandish. Seemingly a god and eventually identified as just another human being trying to do his best, Wilder’s Wonka is unreplicable. When I was in seventh grade, I auditioned for the school play of “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.” I watched the film constantly, and I was never bored. Wilder was fascinating on every re-

watch, no matter the number. I ended up making the school production as Lead Oompa Loompa No. 3, which meant I had my own song instead of just dancing along in chorus — a pretty big deal at the time. The play ended up being fine — mid-

dle school productions are never going to be nominated for Tonys. I continued to watch “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” when my homework was done after practices and my socks were put away. But thinking

back now, I don’t think I’ve watched the film since middle school. I have to remedy that immediately. I’m going to watch it and be engrossed by Wilder once again. Odds are that I’ll laugh at his limp into a flip outside of the factory, gasp

while hiding my eyes during the boat ride and cheer when he chooses Charlie to take over his position. I’ll definitely smile again as the elevator bursts through the roof and soars through the sky. Together, we learned that

the snozzberries taste like snozzberries and that anything is possible. Thank you, Gene Wilder. Related Content, page 9 Read more about Gene Wilder’s legacy.

‘IT DOESN’T HAVE TO MAKE SENSE’

Britney Spears

B+ The preservation of youth has been a theme among celebrity culture for centuries. Cleopatra, Elizabeth Taylor and Madonna have all gone to great lengths in order to appear as young as they were in their prime. As Liz Lemon articulated it, there are only two types of female celebrities – those like Madonna who stay in denial about their own age until their deaths and those like Meryl Streep who grow to embrace their own mortality. Somehow, nostalgic pop idol Britney Spears has managed to do the impossible and successfully conquer her age while remaining as relevant and talented, if not more so, than the vast majority of cur-

rent pop sensations. Need proof? Look no further than her recent ninth studio LP “Glory,” a record that manages to simultaneously celebrate Britney nostalgia and cater to a modern audience. Needless to say, there’s something for everyone on this album. It seems pretty clear Britney was going for a more retro sound on this record than her previous LP “Britney Jean.” I was reminded greatly of her first two albums “... Baby One More Time” and “Oops! ... I Did It Again” while listening to “Glory.” A return to sound also brought a return to Britney’s signature sexiness in “Glory.” Songs like “Private Show,” “Slumber Party” and “Love Me Down” are as equally seductive in nature as classics like “Toxic,” “Criminal” and “I’m a Slave 4 U.”

On top of that, Britney appears to be going for a nightclub vibe on this record too, almost like Lady Gaga’s “Born this Way” or Nicki Minaj’s “The Pinkprint.” I find it interesting that one of the last songs of the record is called “Hard to Forget Ya.” Of course, the lyrics are talking about a sexy encounter with a man, but it’s a song that seems to resonate only too strongly with her fans. It has been almost ten years since Britney’s unfortunate meltdown, and while that may always be a dark and infamous point in her career, it by no means defines who she is to any of us. She will always be one of America’s greatest pop icons. It’s hard to forget you too, Britney. But why would we want to do a crazy thing like that? Austin Faulds

Ingrid Michaelseon

AListening to this album will help anyone get out of a self-loathing funk and spark some sort of empowerment. “It Doesn’t Have to Make Sense” by Ingrid Michaelson provides a genuine artistic interpretation of the typical stages in a 20 to 30 year old’s life. As each song plays, the build up to the ultimate profeminist dance party grows to an ultimate ode to the quiet girl in the corner. From the topics of love and loss to how to say no when someone has just had enough, Michaelson uses her raspy, yet reserved voice to express these messages in the best

way possible. Starting off the album is “Light Me Up,” a strong beginning to the album discussing the push needed to keep trying in life. This builds as the album continues, empowering listeners as it progresses. “Whole Lot of Heart” and “Miss America” can sometimes mix together if the listener is not used to the hushed tones of Michaelson’s voice, but for devoted fans, each song brings something different to the empowerment sequence. The key component of the album is without a doubt “Hell No.” Released as a single prior to the official launch of the album, the song is the ultimate fight anthem for those not wanting to take the shorter end of the stick in a relationship. Screaming “hell no” at the top of your lungs can

always help a situation, but it is clearly better done in song, especially to the upbeat tone of the entire compilation. My personal favorite, with its witty beat and sly wordage, is “Drink You Gone.” With lyrics saying “I can’t drink you gone / I can’t smoke you out / I can’t eat away the way that you ate my heart out,” listeners, unless they have no soul, cannot help but shed a smile and appreciate the cleverness of the words along with the beat behind them. Michaelson somehow has a fresh take rather than belaboring the everlasting trials of love. Go put on some fuzzy socks, put your hair in a bun and go rock out to this mellow and cheery ode to women’s empowerment. Aly Malinger

But bringing interior Mexican dishes that simply aren’t on any other menus in town was the entire family’s dream, and we came together to make it a reality. Every little detail – from the bright yellow paint outside, to the fresh salsa verde, to the soda imported from Mexico and the homemade horchata – was carefully chosen to show Bloomington a real reflection of our Mexican heritage.

1-woman show to open tonight

CULTURE CORNER

By Mallory Haag mjhaag@umail.iu.edu @MalloryHaag

Thinking back on a legend MOVIE STILLS DATABASE DATABA

Gene Wilder, who died Monday, as Dr. Frederick Frankenstein in “Young Frankenstein.” Wilder’s role in the 1974 film started his ascent to stardom.

A world of his creation: remembering legendary actor Gene Wilder I remember the day Robin Williams died. It was the day before my first day of junior year of high school. I was sitting in my room when my parents called me over to look at a Yahoo! News article with the headline, “Robin Williams Dead of Apparent Suicide at 63.” The thought of him being gone was simply surreal. How could Williams, the man whom so much of the world considered to be the embodiment of happiness and youth, suddenly die? To all of us, he was immortal. We all thought the same thing about David Bowie, Prince and Alan Rickman, too, and look how that’s working out for us. 2016 seems to be one massive open season against nostalgic celebrities — everyone is fair game. The death of Gene Wilder on Monday added to the list of losses. He joined comedians George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Rodney Dangerfield, Johnny Carson and, of course, Williams. If there is a heaven, it must be roaring with laughter right now. Few comedy actors have a repertoire quite as impressive as Wilder’s. “Bonnie and Clyde,” “The Producers,” “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,” “Blazing Saddles” and “Young Frankenstein” are only some of his greatest achievements. How can you argue with a resumé like that? Comedians are a strange bunch of people, and, as we have slowly come to know over the last few years, they are also some of the saddest in the world.

They try to make others happy because it’s sometimes the only way they can be happy themselves. Wilder’s reason for entering the comedy world was not out of a desire for fame, wealth or personal enjoyment — it was for love. When he was eight 8 years old, his mother was diagnosed with rheumatic fever. He was told by his mother’s doctor that upsetting his mother could be fatal to her health. Instead, he was asked to try and make her laugh. So he did. He would perform various comedic acts and tell jokes to his mother, much to her delight. His comedic ability continued to grow stronger and stronger right up until his mother’s death when he was 14. The loss of his mother tore him apart, and it only got worse from there. His marriage with actress Gilda Radner, a romance as cinematic as the industry for which they worked, was suddenly cut off by Radner’s ovarian cancer almost five years after they made their marriage vows. Suddenly, he was torn with grief. The very moment he thought he was free, he was dragged right back in. Wilder suffered much in his life. Perhaps this is why he eventually retreated into retirement in the late 1990’s and became a writer. He was a defeated man. There were no laughs given or heard. The comedy was over. Of course, this doesn’t mean it has to be over for the rest of the world. As destroyed as this man was internally,

Interactive film to screen tonight at Fine Arts Plaza By Mallory Haag mjhaag@umail.iu.edu | @MalloryHaag

A collection of home movies filmed across a variety of times and locations during 20th century America will come together for public viewing tonight at the Fine Arts Plaza. “No More Road Trips?” is an interactive film because it was created without a soundtrack to encourage audience interaction. The film’s creator Rick Prelinger’s work with archived film compelled him to make the film silent because rearranging archived film gives him the ability to present history in a different way. “After a while spent making films, I really began to get tired of this idea that people had to be quiet and that movies were one way,” Prelinger said. The screening will be a part of the First Thursdays festival tonight, the kickoff to the First Thursdays program created by the council of Arts and Humanities at IU. As its name suggests, the program is a recurring event that will take place on the first Thursday of every month. “If you look at this footage of the roadscape, you end up seeing the history of the 20th century,” Prelinger said. “You can build a history that doesn’t have any actual historical events in it. It’s all everyday experience,” The idea of the First Thursday program is to start

he was profoundly joyous externally. No other artifact on this earth better emphasizes this than the song “Pure Imagination” from “Willy Wonka.” While not a song he wrote himself, it beautifully articulated allowing dreams to become as concrete as Wonka’s wondrous chocolate factory. It’s the musical equivalent to Dr. Seuss’s “Oh! the Places You’ll Go,” and the song had a significant impact not only on myself, but a countless number of fans as well. There comes a time in all of our lives when we simply stop hearing the music. Until then, we just have to keep dancing and loving and remembering. So in times of doubt or mourning, remember the wise words Wilder left us in “Pure Imagination.” “If you want to view paradise / Simply look around and view it / Anything you want to, do it / Want to change the world? / There’s nothing to it.” Rest in peace, Mr. Wilder. Thank you for bringing us into your world of pure imagination. afaulds@umail.iu.edu Wilder remembered in iconic role, page 8 Read more about Gene Wilder’s legacy as the role of Willy Wonka.

Cardinal Stage Company will bring the story of Texas’s second female governor to the stage tonight at the Ivy Tech Waldron Auditorium with its production of “Ann.” However, the story isn’t told by a cast of colleagues and citizens but by the main character alone. The actress playing Ann Richards in this one-woman show is Diane Kondrat, a Bloomington native who has been in productions from Seattle to Indianapolis. “The play is a biographical piece about a really powerful woman who forged a new path for women in politics in this country,” director Mary Beth Fisher said. The story follows Richards through her political career, providing the viewer with insight into her character, personality and how she performed her duties as governor. “I think a solo format for this play is really great because it puts a spotlight on a woman who (many people) won’t know much about,” Fisher said. The simpler casting changes the role of the stage and lighting crew, but not necessarily for the busier. “My job is to create the physical world for the actors to be able to exist in, whether there is one or 20,” lighting designer Heather Gilbert said. “When there’s one person, I never have to worry if the focus is on the wrong person.” For Alexander Allen, IU junior and assistant stage manager, his job is to assemble sets before each scene. The two sets are a university stage with a podium and her office with a stately desk as the focal point. The limited sets and casting lends itself to a more intimate production for the cast, crew and audience, Fisher said. “With a one-person show, the scene partner for the actor on stage is really the audience,” Fisher said. “It’s really about helping the solo performer find that relationship with the audience in front of her.”

Still from “No More Road Trips?” The silent, interactive film will show tonight at the Fine Arts Plaza.

the night off with artistic activities before patrons continue on to other IU arts performances, said Jon Vickers, the founding director of the IU Cinema. The film is compiled of archived film shot by regular people on their trips across the country. The product provides a road trip narrative starting at the dawn of automobile transportation and ending well into its use in the late twentieth century. The idea of showing “No More Road Trips?” came about at the suggestion of the IU Library’s Moving Images Archive. The film will be a great introduction to the archives, Vickers said. The IU Library’s Moving Images Archive and its impressive collection of over 120,000 reels of film have recently moved from the Ruth Lilly Auxiliary Library Facil-

ity. Vickers said they are looking for new ways to introduce this resource to the students at IU. “We have a new space in Wells Library,” said Andy Uhrich, film archivist at the archive. “We are starting to promote this particular archive in the library’s clutch by bringing in experts in the field of moving image archiving and film preservation.” One such expert is director Prelinger. After the film is shown, he will take part in a Q&A with audiences members where he will explain the motives behind how he created “No More Road Trips?” “When the audience takes ownership of the event, it gives them a very different kind of relationship to history,” Prelinger said. “It’s redefined as what they would like it to mean.”

Eskenazi stays open late for First Thursdays By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

The Eskenazi Museum of Art’s First Thursdays offer students an opportunity to explore the museum even if they may not be able to during regular museum hours. The museum is normally only open until 5 p.m., but on the first Thursday of each month, programming will begin at 5 p.m. and continue through 8 p.m. One highlight of the semester was the successful installation of the largest known rainwork in the world on the sidewalk in front of the museum by the Light Totem. The purpose of a rainwork, according to the official website, is to provide a positive message that appears on a rainy day. Peregrine Church and Xack Fischer, the artists and founders of Rainworks, created the image now on display in front of the Art Museum. “It was wonderful working with Peregrine and Xack from Rainworks,” Morris said. “They are hard-working individuals full of brilliant fresh ideas.” The Eskenazi Museum’s rainwork is a large mandala created by the artists using a large stencil and their superhydrophobic spray, which gives the image the ability to appear only when wet. Students who did not have a chance to see the rainwork at the unveiling during Welcome Week will have another opportunity to see the work

Jenny McComas, curator of European and American art at the museum, will be showing students and attend-

McComas said she hopes the events make a lasting impression on students, even if

they only wish to see part of the museum. “We hope that the First Thursday events provide a welcoming and fun introduction to the museum and that students will want to make return visits,” McComas said. “We have a lot of art on view, but because we are free, students can visit as often as they like and stay as long as they like.”

W | UNCOVERING BLOOMINGTON

W | JOURNALMANIA

Finding the best ice cream in town VMAs This semester, I welcome you to follow me every week as I tour spots in Bloomington. Highlighting some of the best this town has to offer, we will keep it local and find as many hidden gems as possible. With Labor Day weekend on the horizon, we are reminded that summer is coming to a close. Therefore, our first stop in our tour Bloomington adventure is local ice cream parlors. Bloomington is home to many local ice cream shops that can help you venture away from your chain stores, such as Dairy Queen and Cold Stone Creamery. Since this time of year involves many new students gaining their footing and exploring our fantastic Bloomington, I narrowed down two places for you to explore. And if you’re not new to Bloomington but still looking for the best creamy treat around, don’t stop reading, this is perfect for you too. So come along on a journey with me in the local land of chocolate, vanilla and exotic flavors and toppings alike. Here’s where you should go before the temperatures drop. The Chocolate Moose The subject of local controversy last year due to its relocation, the Chocolate Moose has been a staple in

Located on Dunn Street, Hartzell's offers a variety of homemade flavors.

Bloomington for years. Originally a part of May’s Café which opened in 1933, the Chocolate Moose is simply a continuation of the original café, according to its website. This ice cream parlor on South Walnut Street is home to Food Truck Fridays and many delicious cones, floats, sundaes and more. As you stand outside waiting for your ice cream, take time to notice the 1950s feel of the building. The nostalgia is sure to make you think

Brown County Coffee for a tasty experience.

of bobby socks and saddle shoes while you hear Justin Timberlake’s smooth voice in the background for a modern twist. The quaintness of the building has always appealed to me, almost as much as its blue moon ice cream, a flavor I swear I can’t find as good anywhere else. Prices are reasonable, with soft serve starting at about $2 and homemade ice cream starting at about $3. Try any of the homemade flavors like Grasshopper or

Hartzell’s Another great choice for homemade ice cream is Hartzell’s on Dunn Street. The closer choice for those living on or close to campus, Hartzell’s offers a variety of flavors and soft serve ice cream treats, all reasonably priced as well. With a constantly rotating menu, it has been hard for me to narrow down a favorite

flavor. I love their traditional strawberry, but the best thing to do here is try one of the more interesting flavors. I recommend the green tea or any seasonal flavor. These local shops won’t break your budget or make you feel guilty for neglecting those meal points. If you’re staying in town this weekend, stop by one or both — I won’t judge — of these shops. You won’t be disappointed. Allison Wagner

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS? NO PROBLEM!

iubus.indiana.edu

The MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday left many viewers with one question — are we being Punk’D? I was also curious as to when the show will be officially changed to the MTV Beyoncé Music Awards because that’s honestly what I thought I was watching this year. That’s not an exaggeration. Beyoncé won all but two of the 10 awards for which she was nominated. On top of that, she did an entire 15-minute stage version of her recent visual album, “Lemonade.” This is really no surprise considering the success and visual brilliance of the album. However, the irony is Rihanna received the Lifetime Achievement Award, not Beyoncé. Don’t get me wrong, Rihanna got her time in the spotlight as well. She performed a variety of her recent hits and was well-received by multiple artists at the event. But considering most of the headlines after the event read something along the lines of “Beyoncé steals the show at VMAs,” we can safely assume no one seemed to care about Rihanna’s award. Also, any article that had the decency to mention Rihanna primarily focused on Drake’s introductory speech, which totally diminishes the value of the award and what it means to Rihanna. Needless to say, Beyoncé’s fandom is getting out of hand — to the point that she will pretty much win any award for which she’s nominated just because of her popularity. This is what happens when awards ceremonies like the VMAs allow viewers to vote for winners. The whole thing becomes a massive popularity contest that uses concert performances as a crutch. Bey-demic aside, there were some pretty weird moments at the VMAs this year. Let’s get the obvious out of the way — the reveal of Kanye West’s new music video “Fade.” Teyana Taylor is a talented dancer, and obviously attractive, but what was up with that video? One moment Taylor is doing some sort of 21st-century “Flashdance” homage, then she’s randomly in the shower with some other dude, and finally at the end, she turns into a cat and is sitting among a large flock of sheep. Art, I guess? Speaking of Yeezy, what was up with him? He was so tame. I mean, yeah, there was that moment when he declared himself to be his own role model, but that’s a basic Kanye conversation starter. The only reason we know he’s okay is because he gave hilarious shout-outs to Taylor Swift and Amber Rose. There’s the Kanye we love. But the weirdest moment of them all was when Michael Phelps randomly showed up at the show and declared hiphop artist Future to be one of the most inspiring rappers ever. I guess now we all know there isn’t a lot of hip-hop in whatever aquatic wonderland Phelps is from. It’s hard to tell at this point what parts of the VMAs were real and which were just weird Saturday Night Live-esque parodies of it. Despite all these oddities, this was an incredible show from a concert perspective. Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj had tons of on-stage chemistry on “Side to Side,” Halsey was graceful as always and “Lemonade” live was stunning, to say the least. It was also wonderful to see Britney Spears return to the VMA stage after a nine-year absence. It was spiteful of MTV to schedule her right after the “Lemonade” performance, but you really have to appreciate Spears’ effort to lip-sync her way through “Make Me.” With all that said, the VMAs will perhaps always be seen as the lesser-version of the Grammy’s. Maybe someday MTV and its viewers will realize that democracy only works exclusively with politics, not awards shows. Austin Faulds
