Homeless to be more protected By Annie Garau agarau@indiana.edu | @agarau6
In a unanimous decision, Bloomington City Council voted Wednesday to make Bloomington the first Indiana city to recognize homeless people as a somewhat protected class. This decision comes after more than a year of work by Shalom Community Center staff and members of the Bloomington Human Rights Commission. When a client of Shalom Community Center applied for a job in Bloomington, he was hired. When the employers received the results of his background check, however, they immediately let him go. The report hadn’t uncovered some horrible, undisclosed criminal history. Rather, it simply showed that several of the new employee’s recent addresses belonged to homeless shelters. “High risk indicator,” the background check read next to each address. This discrimination based on housing status is not illegal in the United States. Amongst the people sitting in groups on the grass at Seminary Park, it’s hard to find someone who does not feel that their housing status has hindered them when seeking employment or shelter. One woman said her job application was thrown in the trash when she listed Shalom as her address. Many people said that Bloomington motels have begun turning away homeless

MARS program expands Alexis Daily aledaily@umail.iu.edu | @AlexDaily1
Men Against Rape and Sexual Assault’s IU chapter was founded in 2013. Today, the organization has 86 members committed to engaging and educating men about the issues of rape and sexual assault. “We realized there was a need for a comprehensive educational program about these important topics, and MARS not only focuses on the issues, but also on the solutions,” said Jesse Scheinman, vice president of membership development on the Interfraternity Council. In an effort to make the sexual assault discussions more focused this year, Scheinman said he hoped to use thematic speakers at their meetings. “With new members joining fraternities in the coming weeks, we’re hoping to emphasize these important topics in their new member education,” he said. “We plan to target freshmen and show that talking about these issues is an important aspect of joining the IU and greek communities.” Additionally, Scheinman said he hoped to work more with Safe Sisters, a Panhellenic group trained by the IU Health Center’s Sexual Assault Crisis Service, to serve as a resource for sisters on the issue of sexual assault and potentially plan a joint philanthropy event. “We want to create an organization that all Hoosiers can be proud of,” he said. Dan DeBard, president of Pi Lambda Phi fraternity, said 10 members of his fraternity are in MARS. He said these representatives bring information and training from MARS meetings to their chapter, making all members better able to respond in situations involving sexual assault. “It’s not only understanding what happens in the moment, but also learning what to do to prevent these incidents from happening in the first place,” DeBard said. “It’s time for the fraternity community to be part of the solution, and that starts with proper education.” SEE MARS, PAGE 6
Last season, Grant Lillard was a freshman who started every game at center back for IU. His transition into the starting lineup was eased by then-senior Patrick Doody who was starting at left back, next to Lillard. Now, Doody has graduated, and a new freshman has stepped in to replace Doody at left back: Andrew Gutman. What all three have in common beside being left-footed defenders: they all played in the Chicago Fire Academy before attending IU. “I went to IU and that kind of spiraled off into a couple other guys attending IU,” Doody said. The Fire academy, partners with the MLS’ Chicago Fire, has quickly become one of the top youth academies in the country. The U-18 team won the U.S. Soccer Development Academy national championship this summer, with Gutman
starting on the backline. Part of the reason the academy team is so strong, and why its graduates are finding success after leaving the academy is because the Fire doesn’t treat the academy team like an academy team. The Fire treats its academy as an extension of its senior team, giving its youth players opportunities to train with the first team. “Obviously that’s something you can’t get anywhere else,” Lillard said. “It’s always a good opportunity to practice with those guys, and it’s a good experience. That helps, especially physically because the jump from academy to college, that’s one of the biggest things.” Another one of the big things, Gutman said, was that he could no longer take plays off. While training with the academy, Gutman said he could get away with taking a play off every once in a while. Once he arrived at IU, however, he was quickly told this was no longer the case. The
person to tell him this: his backline partner and former academy teammate, Lillard. “We’ve had a lot of conversations on what to do with the left side of the backline,” Gutman said. “I think that we just understand each other so well and our tendencies that we know what each other are going to do.” IU Coach Todd Yeagley said he sees a lot of similarities between Gutman and Lillard, similarities he attributes to their background with the Fire. He said the physical challenges they faced have prepared them for the rigors of college soccer. The training has prepared them mentally for tough situations and for the quick decisions they need to make in games. At the end of last season, Lillard was named the top freshman in the Big Ten. This season, Yeagley said he thinks Gutman is more than capable of following Lillard. “I think right now Andrew has an opportunity to be Freshman of the Year in the confer-
ence,” Yeagley said. “I think he’s that dynamic and good at what he does. It was pretty clear quickly that Grant was in a special category, and I think Andrew is in that same category, which is great.” The connection between the Fire and the Hoosiers is not one that will be disappearing anytime soon, Yeagley said. “I think the dominoes are getting even stronger and that pipeline will continue to grow,” he said. One of the factors is that the Chicago area is one of the top areas the University draws its students from. Yeagley said most everyone from Chicago knows somebody who attended IU and loved their time as a Hoosier. And with the Fire continuing to be one of the top teams in the country, there’s no reason Yeagley would want to turn them away, he said. “They’re producing players, Andrew won’t be the last one that we recruit,” Yeagley said. “It’s not going away.”
The Bishop to celebrate 6 years in business By Jack Evans jackevan@indiana.edu | @JackHEvans
The Bishop Bar is no stranger to touring acts. At the moment, the bar-and-music venue’s schedule promises upcoming performances from far-flung and wide-ranging bands — Long Island neo-disco, Pacific Coast drone metal, Madrid indie rock. But the biggest night of the year at the Bishop doesn’t involve any bands from outside Bloomington. When the venue plays host to its yearly anniversary celebrations, the lineups are strictly locals-only. “The fact we can have our biggest night of the year without a ‘Special Surprise Guest,’ ... with just locals, is really great,” Bishop owner Stephen Westrich said. “It says something about the scene we’re lucky to have.” This year’s celebration marks the bar’s sixth anniversary. The 21-plus show, which begins at 9 p.m. Friday, features three local acts: rock group Mike Adams at His Honest Weight, pop-punk outfit High Dive and power-pop band Full Sun. Admission is free. Westrich said the Bishop has thrown an anniversary event every year since opening, with some of the venue’s favorite bands on stage. “It’s mostly about some of our favorites that we want to celebrate with and we feel like are a summary of what the bar is about — who we cater to, who we want to be here,” he said.

The Bishop will celebrate it’s sixth anniversary this Friday where local bands will begin playing at 9 p.m. The three featured artists are rock group Mike Adams at His Honest Weight, pop-punk outfit High Dive and power-pop band Full Sun. The anniversary show will be free to the public who are 21 and older.
Mike Adams at His Honest Weight will headline the show. Frontman Mike Adams has been part of the Bloomington music scene since arriving in 2001, and he called the Bishop “the best-sounding room in town.” “We were really flattered that they asked us to help celebrate this year,” Adams said. “The Bishop feels very much like home base to
me, so I’m always happy to do anything they want.” Though Adams has played music in Bloomington since the turn of the century, Westrich said the most bittersweet changes in the local music scene in the six years since he founded the Bishop have been the departures and dissolutions of other local favorites. Still, he said, the venue is relatively young — young enough, at

Grant received for arts program From IDS reports
Since 2004, the New Frontiers in the Arts and Humanities’ seed-funding program has provided more than 450 arts and humanities scholars with more than $9.4 million. “Over the past decade we at IU, throughout the state of Indiana and quite literally around the world, have been the beneficiaries of the fruits of that commitment — from operas and gallery shows, to award-winning books and internationally recognized art installations,” said Fred Cate, IU vice president for research, in an IU press release. This year, IU’s Office of the Vice President for Research, which manages the New Frontiers in the Arts and Humanities program, and IU Communications in the Office of the Vice President for Engagement have created a multimedia retrospective that recognizes the work of nearly 50 grant winners during the past 10 years, according to the release. This year, the program will award grants through four distinct funding programs, according to IU’s Research Gateway website. New Frontiers of Creativity and Scholarship awards up to $50,000 to assist in the development of innovative works. New Frontiers/New Currents awards up to $20,000 to fund workshops or conferences with distinguished experts on timely topics. New Frontiers Exploratory Travel Fellowships awards up to $3,000 to support national and international travel. Finally, New Frontiers Experimentation Fellowships awards up to $15,000 to fund the preliminary stages of new trajectories in innovative work or creative activity. “New Frontiers both reflects and has contributed significantly to maintaining the vital role of the arts and humanities here at Indiana University,” Cate said in the release.

750 student clubs display activities By Ashleigh Sherman aesherma@indiana.edu | @aesherma
Audra Kriauciunas said she wanted to meet other students interested in the outdoors but didn’t know how and couldn’t find a club to help her — so she started a club to help others. Kriauciunas founded Wilderness Explorers at IU. After starting as an informal group last academic year, Wilderness Explorers has transformed into an official organization this academic year. The Student Involvement Fair brings a mix of old and new student organizations like Wilderness Explorers to Dunn Meadow every fall semester. The fair is an opportunity for students and clubs to interact at the beginning of the school year. “You get to talk to students directly, and it’s really your opportunity to make those face-to-face connections and, hopefully, if they have that face-to-face connection, then they’re going to be more likely to check out your club,” Kriauciunas said. “So I’m really excited we got a spot.” Kriauciunas was talking to her uncle about her desire to meet other students interested in the outdoors or to find a club to help her when he suggested she start her own club. “I just started looking more into the process, and the more I started (looking into) it, the more I was like, ‘We’re going to do it,’” she said.
KATELYN ROWE | IDS
The Student Involvement Fair grew this year to fill most of Dunn Meadow and also shut down parts of Seventh Street. The fair’s purpose is to make students aware of what organizations are at IU.
Kriauciunas said the organization has three key aims: to get students interested in the outdoors, to help students meet other students interested in the outdoors and to explore educational and career opportunities in the outdoors. Kriauciunas said she hoped to plan biweekly hiking and monthly excursions. “I’m really hoping to attract students that are motivated and just bring a positive energy with them, that are open to new experiences and are open to the outdoors,” she said. “It could be the start of a
lifelong passion that they just discovered.” Kriauciunas said reaching students through the Student Involvement Fair is easier than reaching students through other methods. “This is the only time in the first couple of weeks of school that we have an allplay, where we put this out to all registered student organizations, we put this out to all campus departments, we put this out to local community agencies,” said Valerie Nettleton, student organizations coordinator under the Division of Student Affairs. “And it
really represents everyone on a level playing field. And so, whether you’re an organization that has 20 members or you’re an organization that has six members, you have the same presence here at the fair.” Nettleton said the fair is the first opportunity for students to talk with different people and learn about different options for involvement in one location. “Getting involved on campus is important for so many different reasons,” she said. “Number one, it really enhances what you’re learn-
ing in the classroom. You will learn skills outside of the classroom that complement what you’re doing inside the classroom. You also learn lessons outside of the classroom that you never learn inside the classroom.” Nettleton said getting involved on campus allows students to build connections with other students with similar interests. “There are so many different reasons, and there are so many different interests,” she said. “And we’re trying to help cater and help people find their way through all of that.”
Origami workshop offers cultural experience By Julie Masterson julmaste@indiana.edu
The Asian Culture Center introduced a weekly origami workshop as part of the Asian Cultures Around Campus series. Every Wednesday from 4 to 7 p.m., participants can come to the ACC to learn and improve their skills in the art of origami. Origami is the ancient Japanese art of paper folding. Users can fold paper to create animals, flowers and decorative objects without the use of additional materials. Chiaki Arai, an IU student
and volunteer instructor, will guide participants in creating a variety of origami crafts that she has prepared each week. Sarah Stamey, a program associate at the ACC, said the workshop is designed be to as relaxing as it is educational. “People can come once a semester, or they can come every single week,” Stamey said. “If you have time after your class, either at 4, 5, or even if you want to pop in at 6:30 and do something a little different, you can just come and go as you please.” Stamey said the workshop, as well as the ACC as a whole, is open to everyone, in
every sense of the word. “You don’t have to be of Asian descent to come to the Asian Culture Center,” Stamey said. “That’s one of the misconceptions we are fighting against. Actually, I would say that 70 to 80 percent of people who utilize the Asian Cultural Center are of non-Asian decent.” In addition to the origami workshop, the ACC offers two other weekly workshops, including Henna 101 every Monday and calligraphy lessons every Friday, according to the ACC’s website. “We’re always, always trying to find new things to offer
the students,” Stamey said. The origami workshop is part of the ACC’s series, Asian Cultures Around Campus, which aims to bring a variety Asian cultures to Bloomington through an ongoing series of performances and instructional demonstrations, according to the ACC’s website. “We have our cultural component, our language classes, our weekly offerings,” Stamey said. “We also like to partner with academic departments as well.” The ACC also raises awareness about Asian and Asian American issues
through discussions and lectures on a variety of topics. Some presentations are one-time events, but the ACC also runs four regular discussion series, including Over a Cup of Tea and Monday Table Topics, which are both monthly discussion series, according to the ACC website. All workshops and discussions in the series are free and open to the public and do not require registration. Stamey, however, said participants should notify the ACC if they plan to attend the workshop with a group of six or more.

BPD uses new recruiting tool By Annie Garau agarau@indiana.edu | @agarau6
Young people interested in law enforcement no longer have to wait for their 21st birthday to begin their work with the police force. The Bloomington Police Department is now accepting applications for its new Police Explorer Group which will allow men and women ages 14 to 20 to learn what it takes to be a police officer. “We had tremendous success with the recent Teen Police Academy,” Chief Michael Diekhoff said in a press release. “The Explorer program will be a great way to build on that success and continue with BPD’s outreach to the youth of our community by exposing them to what a career in law enforcement might look like.” In order to be eligible for the group, applicants must have completed eighth grade, have and maintain at least a 2.0 GPA and have no major criminal record, among other criteria. “We’re looking for kids who are really interested in pursuing this type of career,” Lt. Steve Kellams said. “It’s going to be a commitment.” Group members will be expected to attend regular meetings and participate in

Local police campaign cracks down on drunken driving on Labor Day From IDS reports

events. They will be taught about first aid, CPR, evidence gathering and physical fitness along with other leadership skills. Kellam said group members will also have the opportunity to go on “ridealongs” with uniformed officers. Kellam said the department hopes to provide the group with uniforms and special explorers badges so they can help police at local events, festivals or patrol-

ling on the B-Line trail. He emphasized that the group members will never be working without the help and supervision of a certified officer. “It’s a great opportunity for these kids to interact with the community, learn how to be good stewards and good citizens and for them to learn about us,” Kellams said. With the public’s growing distrust of America’s law enforcement, Kellams said it is important
that youth trust police and understand how they do their job. He also noted that explorer groups like this one are good ways to recruit future officers and promote diversity in the department. “I think if IU students are interested in law enforcement they should definitely get involved,” Kellams said. “The IU Police Academy is a tremendous program, but you have to be 21 for that one.”
The annual “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign by the U.S. Department of Transportation to crack down on drunken driving will come to a close at the end of Labor Day weekend. The campaign began Aug. 21 and involves 10,000 law enforcement agencies across the country, including some in Indiana, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration press release. The campaign enforces a zero-tolerance policy for drivers with a blood alcohol content of 0.08 or higher, according to the release. The NHTSA supports the campaign with $13.5 million in advertising funds to make the public aware of the dangers of drunken driving. “Drunk driving is deadly, it’s against the law and despite years of progress, it’s still a problem,” U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said in the release. “With the help of law enforcement around the country, we’re getting the word out — if you’ve been drinking, don’t drive, because if you do, you will be stopped, you will be arrested and you will be prosecuted.” According to the release,
the number of drunken drivers on the road has decreased in recent years. The risk, however, still remains and increases, especially between 6 p.m. and 5:59 a.m., according to the release. During the 2013 Labor Day period, half the fatalities at night involved drunken drivers whereas only 14 percent of daytime fatalities involved drunken drivers, according to the release. In 2013, 31 percent of all motor vehicle traffic fatalities in the U.S. were alcohol related. Additionally, of the 10,076 people who died in drunken driving accidents in 2013, 68 percent were in crashes where at least one driver had a blood alcohol content at or above 0.15, according to the release. “Targeted enforcement campaigns are an essential element in our strategy to save lives and reduce crashes, and they have helped sharply reduce the number of drunk drivers on our roads,” NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind said in the release. “But too many drivers continue to risk their lives and the lives of others by getting behind the wheel drunk. Our message is clear: drive sober, or get pulled over.” Suzanne Grossman

In 2014, Indiana was ranked 46th out of 50 states in women’s equality by WalletHub, a personal finanace website. In a 2009 study from the Kaufmann Foundation, Indiana was ranked 44th nationally for entrepreneurship. Faculty members at the Northeast Indiana Innovation Center said they thought these two lessthan-favorable standings could be connected. “Many women have great ideas, but, for whatever reason, they just don’t follow through with them,” said Mike Fritsch, NIIC entrepreneur in residence. “We want to make it more likely that women will succeed.” In order to do this, the nonprofit resource center based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, recently announced the creation of the Women’s Economic Opportunity
Center for Indiana. “We want to be able to provide women with the training and the coaching and the resources to get them up to the place that men are,” Fritsch said. Last week, the NIIC was awarded a $150,000 grant from the U.S. Small Business Administration to create a statewide resource for female and immigrant entrepreneurs. “We know what we’re doing as far as helping people start businesses,” Fritsch said about the 15-yearold organization. “What we really want to do now is focus on those groups that aren’t getting the attention.” Fritsch explained the new center, which will officially launch Oct. 1, will be a resource for women and immigrants living in 83 Indiana counties, including Monroe. “There’s a fairly large immigrant population in Indiana, and they kind of tend to stick to their own
groups and just try to do everything themselves,” he said. “We don’t really see many immigrants come in, so we’re trying to change that.” The center will work to answer the clients’ questions on matters such as the grant application process and generating more business. The staff will also work to provide clients with mentors, training, connections and other tools for starting a new business. For the most part, these services will be provided free of charge, Fritsch said. He noted, however, that some things will cost more as the clients’ needs grow. Fritsch said NIIC will strive to reach and actively work with 1,000 clients within the center’s first year. “We are here to help you focus on starting your business,” he said. “We want you to be more likely to say, ‘Okay, I’ll take a chance.’”

EDITORIAL BOARD
ILLUSTRATION BY NHAN NGUYEN | IDS
Science on a sacred summit WE SAY: Respecting natives’ wishes is a priority and science can wait Imagine a plan to build a nuclear reactor in Bethlehem or a particle accelerator around Mecca. Does this sound offensive and sacrilegious? That’s how the plan to build yet another observatory on Mauna Kea, the tallest summit on Earth, possibly the darkest spot in the world and a mountain that is sacred to many native Hawaiians, sounds to the self-styled “protectors” of the site. The protectors are a group of native Hawaiians outraged at the planned construction of a huge telescope, the Thirty Meter Telescope,
on top of a mountain where they believe their ancestors originated. The TMT would allow astronomers to see up to 13 billion light-years away, a distance Professor Paul Coleman of the University of Hawaii said represents “a jump of a factor of 10” in how far scientists will be able to see clearly. It might look like a battle between science and religion, but the Editorial Board thinks it’s important to keep in mind the history of native peoples in the United States and the history of Hawaii. This isn’t so much about
religion as it is about respecting cultural rights and cultural autonomy. In the 1790s, King Kamehameha I first united all the Hawaiian islands under a single kingdom. A century later, in 1893, a group of American businessmen and sugar planters overthrew Queen Liliuokalani, who supported greater rights for native Hawaiians. In other words, native Hawaiians have a long history of being pushed around by non-natives with their own special interests. We recognize the im-
mense scientific value of a telescope that would enable new discoveries about the universe. But we wonder, can’t it be built somewhere else? Mauna Kea is currently home to 13 huge telescopes, around a quarter of which are slated to be decommissioned by the time the TMT is up and running under the order of Hawaii Gov. David Ige. But the TMT will be built on a new site, disturbing even more of the fragile ecosystem, rather than on the site of an existing observatory.
The Editorial Board believes that other options could be explored that might balance scientific advancement with the rights of native Hawaiians to have a say in how their own land is used. Making the adequate funding of NASA a federal budget priority would allow for more space telescopes such as the Hubble Space Telescope. There is no land in space to fight over, and what better vantage point is there than space itself? The Editorial Board is concerned that some of the
arguments for the construction of the TMT might be little more than a form of colonialism cloaked in the prestige of science, which supposedly benefits all of humanity. We should have all learned our lessons by now. If native peoples say no to a project that non-natives want, we should listen to them. The way we see it, space will be around for a long time to come. Respecting native rights is a more immediate priority than building yet another telescope.

Stop bumbling around with online dating
Clerk in Kentucky impedes on LGBT rights
Tinder co-founder Whitney Wolfe launched Bumble last year and, in doing so, transformed online dating as we know it. In essence, Bumble is just like Tinder, but women are the only ones who can start conversations with their matches, and the connection disappears after 24 hours of silence. In the case of samesex matches, either person can start, but the 24-hour rule still applies. Wolfe claims she created the “ladies first” rule to empower more young women to make the first move not only online but also in person. Each message they send should be a veritable confidence boost. Like many women on Tinder, I have had the distinct pleasure of receiving cheesy or sometimes offensive pickup lines, boring “hey” openers or just a line of water droplet emojis on a good day. So I was intrigued when I found out these could all be avoided. Bumble, however, does more than promote female first moves. Wolfe has said Bumble is truly trying to facilitate connections more than trying to be a go-to hook up app. Thus, a user’s bio shows their age, location, educational background and their current occupation if that information exists on their Facebook profile. Bumble even has a way of distinguishing matches with good behavior on the app. The algorithm is apparently based on how judicious

people are in their swipes and how often they respond to messages. This is all super in-depth for a simple thumb exercising app, but it’s creating a certain level of safety for the users, as well as creating an environment for actual connection. The app has a host of other guidelines and terms of service that basically protect people from sketchy characters. No dick pics, no pictures of kids and no spamming. I downloaded it. For research purposes, of course. There are still some things we have come to expect from straight guys on dating apps. Men holding fish, bios that say things like, “Let’s get rowdy,” and the classic, “Which one are you?” game. However, in general, the app felt safe. I had the ability just to let my matches expire when I realized an unfortunate amount of them had neck beards. Bumble is the perfect place for those of us who are tired of spooky messages and borderline-pornographic Tinder moments. It cuts down on those matches that sit around and collect dust in your app and, in theory, only shows you the people you want to see. meickhof@indiana.edu
Everyone in the United States has a right to practice whatever religion they choose to, and I absolutely defend someone’s right to do so. When government and religion cross, however, things get much more complicated. Same-sex marriage was officially legalized on June 26 — or rather, it became illegal for states to ban same-sex couples from marrying. Kim Davis, a clerk in Rowan County, Kentucky, disagrees with the ruling. She has begun to refuse marriage licenses to samesex couples who come into her office and, in doing so, has come to national attention, with some defending her and others condemning her. Davis gained national attention after David Moore and David Ermold, a gay couple filmed their first attempt to receive a marriage license in their country in July. We can all easily point
fingers and scream “homophobe” until our throats hurt. But Davis has her reasons for refusing licenses, the big one being that samesex marriage is against her religion and Christian views. Arguing this from a totally rights-based standpoint and based upon her right to practice her religion freely, it is perfectly fine, and legal, for Davis to hold these views about same-sex marriage. But based on that same argument, she is not within her rights to refuse marriage licenses to people in a government building, which is supposed to be neutral territory when beliefs conflict. If she is against same-sex marriage, she should have stepped down from her position as a government clerk when the Supreme Court ruling was announced and worked in a private chapel or institution, which do have the right to refuse couples based on religious belief. A chapel in Idaho was
making national headlines in 2014 for refusing same-sex couples based on the same Christian principles under which Davis is evidently operating. The same-sex marriage ruling is highly controversial and for good reason. It is an acceptance of same-sex couples in the U.S., but many see it as an affront, an insult to their beliefs. I don’t want this column to be a debate about same-sex marriage. Instead, I want to focus on this confusion occurring between church and state. As long as the same-sex marriage ruling is considered constitutional, Davis cannot legally refuse samesex couples marriage licenses while she works in a government position in a government building. It is law, and nothing else. Davis has asked to be excused from issuing same-sex marriage licenses and she faces misconduct

charges and a hearing to determine whether or not she is in contempt of the court. She is not the only clerk that is attempting to refuse same-sex marriage licenses either. But she is the one in the spotlight. And I would like to use the opportunity she has presented us to define, very clearly, the lines that divide religion and government. I would call on other officials to do the same. Practicing religion is a protected right in this country. But when the practice of religion determines that other humans are somehow less than yourself and do not deserve the same rights as you, it cannot cross into law. ewenning@indiana.edu

How the steroid era changed the game Michael Hernandez is a junior in journalism
Baseball has long been considered the quintessential American pastime. The tradition and reverence of the game are a couple of examples as to why people are so upset over the use of performance-enhancing drugs. But, to all the traditionalists who defy he integrity of the sport, I say, “What’s the big deal?” The steroids era was considered to be between the late 1980s and the late 2000s, when there was an increase in offensive output throughout the game of baseball. The most notable example of performance-enhancing drugs was the 1997 home run race between St. Louis Cardinals’ first baseman Mark McGwire and Chicago Cubs’ outfielder Sammy Sosa, who were both chasing the singleseason home run record of Roger Maris, who hit 61 in 1961. In a league that had only seen three players reach the 50-home run mark between 1961 and 1994, it seemed almost inevitable that both Sosa and McGwire would break Maris’ record. McGwire ended the season with 70 home runs, while Sosa followed with 66. The record, however, only stood for three years, before Barry Bonds of the San Francisco Giants notched 73 home runs in 2001, despite failing to reach the 50-home run mark in any previous season. In the following years, these three players were questioned after being linked to the use of PEDs, which has kept three of the greatest players ever out of the Hall of Fame. When you think of the Hall of Fame, you think about a place where the greatest baseball players in history are enshrined so they can live on forever as players who changed the game. McGwire is not in the Hall of Fame, yet, his bat, with which he hit his 70th home run of the 1997 season, is. Sosa is not in the Hall of Fame, yet his name is enshrined as one of only five players to hit 600 or more home runs. Whether he takes steroids or not, a player still has read a curveball and make contact. Steroids don’t make his hand-eye coordination better. . Despite what baseball writers and experts think, these players deserve to be inducted into Cooperstown because, at the end of the day, it’s still a museum. The same goes for players such as McGwire, Sosa and Bonds. How do you keep Sosa and McGwire, two players who helped put baseball back on the map after the 1994 lockout, and Bonds, the all-time home run king, out of the Hall of Fame? They changed the game forever. The only solution is if Cooperstown added a “Steroids Era” section to their museum. The players would be categorized as being part of that era, which they should, and also have a spot in the Hall, which they should. As of 2003, the MLB adopted PED drug-testing, by which baseball players will be randomly tested. It will further progress baseball as a sport, as it says goodbye to the steroids era, an era where home run battles and home run kings lived and an era that Cooperstown should acknowledge changed the game of baseball forever. micbhern@indiana.edu

Freshman forwards help team unity By Teddy Bailey teddybailey2@gmail.com @TheTeddyBailey
IU Coach Amy Berbary knew what she wanted from her latest recruiting class — goals. That’s why Berbary, in her third year at the helm of the women’s soccer program, brought in four freshman forwards. After a pair of season-ending injuries to sophomore attacking midfielder Nickie Zuckerman and sophomore forward Mykayla Brown in recent weeks, IU will be counting on the forwards, and their motto of “Un1ted”, more than ever. Berbary said the team adopted the motto in February after the conclusion of a season that entailed nine shutouts. Berbary said the catchphrase represents the excitement and encouragement the entire team has, from the upperclassmen to the true freshmen. “It’s been unbelievable,” Berbary said of the team’s leadership. “I think our older group of players have done a tremendous job at allowing them (the freshmen) and inviting them in. They know that we need those younger players in order to be successful. It couldn’t have been a better catchphrase with what we’ve been through so far.” In last weekend’s sweep of Baylor University and University of Missouri, freshman forward duo Maya Piper and Cassidy Blacha showed glimpses of what is to come with not only this recruiting class, but the offense as a whole. “I think they’re doing a really good job,” Berbary said. “They came into preseason prepared, fitness wise. Cassidy we look at as an attacking player, whether

it’s up top or in the midfield. We’re looking at Maya as a forward, she’s very good with her back to the goal, can strike a ball and is pretty quick side-to-side.” Piper has started up top in each of the team’s four games, while Blacha scored the game-winning overtime goal Sunday against Missouri. “Cassidy scored a great goal. She’s been knocking on the door,” Berbary said. ”Are they doing everything that we’ve wanted? They’re freshmen, they’re improving every day, which is encouraging. We’re still lacking in the final third and with goals. We got away with two wins this weekend, but we still need to create better chances for ourselves.” The theme of playing
“united” has been evident in how the team has practiced and played thus far. Both Piper and Blacha, among others, have expressed how smooth the transition has been to playing Big Ten soccer thanks to their teammates. “I think the upperclassmen have been so welcoming to the freshmen,” Piper said. “There really is a family feeling with the group — everyone is willing to help each other on and off the field. It really has been united.” Blacha, meanwhile, graduated from Avon High School in Avon, Indiana, a semester early in order to become familiar with her new home. The early move to Bloomington helped her adjust both academically
and athletically. “I think coming in early really helped me out,” Blacha said. “It’s a great group of people, and we have a lot of older players that help the younger players out. I just wanted to get acquainted to the school, and I thought being here early would only help.” Both Piper and Blacha are well aware of the offensive struggles the team encountered last season but, according to the attackers, they’re up to the challenge. “Last season, I think the team struggled a little bit offensively,” Piper said. “She’s (Berbary) asked us to contribute as much as we can. It’s a lot of pressure, but I have my team behind me and they’ll make sure that I know what I’m
doing. It can definitely be nerve-wracking at times, but it’s really exciting that I have the opportunity to get playing time.” With their first two wins out of the way, the Hoosiers will turn to this weekend’s LSU Tournament with a sense of renewed confidence. IU will look to build off two shutout wins at the Purdue Tournament a week ago. “I think it’s good knowing that we have the potential to win,” Blacha said. “We just have to keep our focus throughout the week and take things one game at a time. It was really exciting to know that all of our hard work in practice has paid off. It’s just good being surrounded by people that want you to do well.”

Then-junior quarterback Nate Sudfeld pitches the ball during an option play to then-junior running back Tevin Coleman during IU’s game against Maryland on Saturday, Sep. 27, 2014 at Memorial Stadium.
Sudfeld has potential for greatness There is a theme when coaches and teammates talk about Nate Sudfeld. At the threshold of his senior year, they say, the quarterback’s sense of urgency is heightened. Sudfeld lost his junior season — and now, he only has one left. And although he hasn’t played an official down in 326 days, he has cultivated the qualities to lead this team that he lacked a season ago. We heard the stories this summer: Sudfeld goes to the Manning Passing Academy, Sudfeld gets named to sundry award watch lists, Sudfeld speaks at the Big Ten Kickoff Luncheon. “So what?” I thought. That doesn’t prove anything. But the more you watch him, the more you understand: Sudfeld has the intangibles to be transcendent. It’s in the way he carries himself: humble, but confident, in the same vein as his role model, Andrew Luck. It’s in the things he says: mostly, everything right. And it was evident when the quarterback addressed the media Monday, his final time at the podium before the Hoosiers take the field against
Southern Illinois University on Saturday. A new beginning, but also, the beginning of the end. Before Sudfeld went down in 2014, the offense was inconsistent. We saw it in a collapse against MAC opponent Bowling Green and again in a shutdown against Maryland, a sorry loss on the heels of IU’s biggest upset in 27 years. “We were a little bit complacent,” Sudfeld said. “We kind of just believed it would happen because we were the Indiana offense.” This season, Sudfeld is dialed in with his receiving corps, a rapport and focus sophomore Ricky Jones said is better than any he’s seen his quarterback play with before. If Sudfeld is worried about putting his last ride in the hands of a young perimeter — on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball — he doesn’t show it. The quarterback even went as far as to call the secondary, seen by many as the team’s Achilles heel, a strength. In fact, Sudfeld had plenty of praise for his freshman teammates, echoing IU Coach Kevin Wilson’s state-
Tori Ziege is a junior in journalism
ments that they are some of the most skilled athletes on roster. In a lot of ways, Sudfeld was ill-prepared to be IU’s torchbearer in 2014. Always part of a tandem, he had to switch gears in two months to become not only the starter — but the guy. The injury to his nonthrowing shoulder, his spring break trip to Uganda, the hours he spent in facilities, around his teammates, studying and rehabbing, these were instrumental to his development as a leader. Now, he is not only ready to be face of the Hoosiers, he is the best person to bring IU football back to respectability, and — dare I say — repute. We can’t yet assess the abilities of Nate Sudfeld, the football player. But there is visible evidence to suggest greatness in Nate Sudfeld, the person — and at the quarterback position, the two are inextricable. Those who surround him closely believe. You can count me as one of the believers. vziege@indiana.edu

How different it was!’” he said. But even if Westrich hasn’t seen big sonic shifts since opening the Bishop, Adams credited him, along with promoter Dan Coleman, with maintaining the scene’s vitality. “They do a great job of keeping the shows current and consistently great,” he said. “That’s the best way they’ve contributed to the music scene here, by being active participants.” Since anniversary shows in years past have yielded high turnouts for the Bishop, Westrich said he expects no different this year. As the event’s Facebook page says, “It will probably be fun. If not, there are like, five other bars within two blocks. Relax.” And after all, Westrich said, admission is free. Part of the point, he said, is to return the favor to local show-goers who have kept the venue in business. “It’s sort of a ‘thank you’ to the people who built this place with their patronage,” he said.
Recently, a new chapter of MARS started at Purdue University. Scheinman said he helped the president of Purdue’s Phi Kappa Psi fraternity set up the organizational structure of MARS at Purdue. “I have been in really early talks about partnering for service and philanthropy, but right now we are primarily focused on MARS at IU,” he said. “With that being said, we are certainly in contact with them, as well as MARS at Northwestern.” Scheinman said all those wanting to join MARS must fill out an application on their website, www. marsprogram.org. They are also required to participate in at least 75 percent of programming and to attend one four-hour training session taught by SACS professionals that covers in-depth greek and alcohol-related issues. “We expect skepticism at the beginning, but members will quickly realize this is completely different than

what they learned in other sexual assault programming,” Scheinman said. “We use real-life scenarios during training and don’t sugar coat the material.” Scheinman said new members have the opportunity to take on numerous leadership roles in MARS once they complete training. “From marketing to web design to philanthropy planning to discussion leaders, we’re always looking for more people to help spread our message around campus,” Scheinman said. Sophomore exercise science student and Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity member Caeb Onken said he joined MARS last semester after Bill Phan, director of MARS and former president of Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, spoke about the organization and its mission to the new members. “As an orientation leader this summer, I always made sure to mention MARS and all the work we are doing for the IU community,” Onken said. “I feel distinguished to be part of such an incredible organization.”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 people, even when they can afford a room. Erica Kraemer, who moved out of homelessness last week, said when she worked at McDonald’s, she felt she was treated differently than the other employees. She said they asked if she was dirty every morning. In an effort to lessen this type of unfair treatment, activists from Shalom and the human rights commission proposed the newly passed amendment to the city’s Human Rights Ordinance. This change will add housing status and veteran status to the list of groups protected against discrimination with regards to employment, housing and public accommodation. “People experience discrimination all the time, so it will give the opportunity to people who are homeless or have been homeless to put forth challenges before the Human Rights Commission,” Gilmore said. Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people, who are also left unprotected
under national law, have already been added to Bloomington’s ordinance. “It’s a bit of a symbolic thing,” said Barbara McKinney, the director of the Human Rights Commission who drafted the amendment. “We will attempt to investigate any claim that is brought before us, but we won’t be able to compel investigation.” Last year Indiana state law changed to fully prohibit discrimination against veterans. Because Indiana has not prohibited discrimination based on housing status, the most Bloomington can do is “discourage” it, making homeless people a “quasi-protected” class. For businesses or individuals who discriminate against the city’s homeless, the government can’t do anything stronger than what Gilmore referred to as a “public shaming,” or a scolding from members of the human rights council. “It will largely depend on voluntary support,” Gilmore said. “Challenges can be brought and the human rights group can encourage
the violator to change their practices.” On Wednesday, city council heard the second reading of the amendment and took a final vote. The amendment passed with a unanimous round of yes’s and positive statements from council members. “It’s unfortunate that we cannot vote to fully protect the class of people currently experiencing homelessness because of state law, but I look forward to that day,” council member Steve Volan said. “I thought it was important that the city of Bloomington take the lead on this issue and we have,” council member Tim Mayer said, noting that Columbus, Indiana, is working toward a similar amendment, but is one meeting behind Bloomington’s council. After the amendment was passed, Gilmore said he was stunned. He called it a historical moment. “It’s extraordinary to be part of such an amazing city that takes so seriously the protection of the most vulnerable among us,” he said.

Now wait one second ... what just happened at the VMAs? MTV Video Music Awards Miley Cyrus, Kanye West, Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj C+ You didn’t miss much, but you missed quite a bit. Let me explain. The expectation of this year’s MTV Video Music Awards was pretty high, as they tried to do it big and actually have a host. The past two years the VMAs opted out of a one-man show and just had special guests and appearances run the program. This year, MTV thought it would be an awesome idea to bring in good-girl-turned-bad, Miley Cyrus. Great idea, huge mistake. I’m not sure if it was her dry comedy or tedious enthusiasm that just made the award show feel dragged out, but it was not a good hosting gig for her. Nevertheless, the show did have some major moments and performances. Taylor Swift won Video of the Year for her song “Bad Blood,” Tori Kelly absolutely shut it down with her performance of “Should’ve Been Us,” and oh yeah —
‘Beauty Behind the Madness’ The Weeknd AThe Weeknd might be going more mainstream, but his heart is still in the shadows. In his second studio album, “Beauty Behind the Madness,” the singer let’s go of some of the moodier tones to bring listeners a more mainstream vibe while keeping up with his promiscuous lyricism. The opening line of the album, “Tell ‘em this boy wasn’t meant for lovin’” sets a precedent for the rest of the
Kanye West is running for president in 2020. West was presented with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, which is to highlight his career as an entertainer, and boy, was it interesting. He got on stage, admitted he smoked a bit prior to his appearance and incoherently rambled for a while. Underneath the facade, if you caught the gist of what West was getting at, you would actually be impressed. Of course, his delivery was a bit off, but it was inspiring to say the least. His message to others basically was to follow your heart and not to let others define your success or hold you back from reaching your dreams. And of course, this wouldn’t be an MTV award show without drama. Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift seemed to patch things up after their Twitter beef a few weeks ago about the nominees for Video of the Year. The two actually took the stage together as part of one of the opening act for the night. It was a Kodak moment. On the other hand, Cyrus found herself on Minaj’s bad side after calling her out. Upon receiving Best Hip-Hop Video award, Minaj said, “And now ... back to this bitch that had
a lot to say about me the other day in the press. Miley, what’s good?” And cue ratings. Regardless of the
drama that unfolded, the VMAs were pretty mediocre. There were some good performances by The Weeknd and Demi
Lovato, yet, I didn’t feel that excitement of the typical award show. It’ll be interesting to see if they will return to the absentee host next year.
That may have been a better option for them. Stay tuned.
album’s theme of seduction in a party setting and an all-around disregard for emotions. Whether the Canada native is jaded by heartbreak or just infatuated with the fast lane, nearly every song has one reference to a refusal to find deeper meaning in a relationship or slow down as a party boy. In “The Hills,” a song that hit radio stations in the summer with a bang due to its hardhitting chorus, The Weeknd highlights what is possibly the message of the entire album: “When I’m fucked up, that’s the real me.” There seems to be a direct correlation between
substance and seduction in The Weeknd’s songs, as seen in songs like the chart-topping “Can’t Feel My Face” and “Tell Your Friends,” a song notable solely for the fact that it was produced by Kanye West. In the latter song, the R&B singer refers to himself as “that nigga with the hair / Singin’ ‘bout poppin’ pills, fucking bitches, livin’ life so trill”. Later in the song, he also makes a jab at love with the lyric “they told me not to fall in love, that shit is so pointless”. These continuous references to drugs, alcohol and promiscuity paint the picture that The Weeknd is comfortable with disregarding responsibility in his love life,
something reflective of both his age and the age of his main audience. The Weeknd’s music plays on pop and hip-hop radio stations alike all around the world. But the artist’s target listeners seem to stem from college-aged, Lollapaloozabound youth, a demographic which is often considered tied to abusing substances and hook-up culture. In many songs on the album, listeners see the pull toward appealing to a young, reckless crowd. Though older albums and mixtapes of The Weeknd’s gave off the ambiance of a dark bedroom, this album showcases the artist’s ability to fit into the
mainstream sound of dance clubs and social gatherings. Some of the mashups featured on “Beauty Behind the Madness” also point toward this shift in style. With collaborations later in the album with pop stars Ed Sheeran and Lana Del Rey, The Weeknd shows fans his voice can work well beside those of mainstream pop icons, and that he is not limited to the R&B corner of music. The song with Del Rey, “Prisoner,” sticks out in particular as a wise collaboration choice. The lyric from Del Rey, “love will always be a lesson, let’s get out of its way” illustrates the theme of being unable to grasp the true
concept of relationships. Del Rey’s sulky voice paired with the seductive notes sung by The Weeknd mold together to successfully showcase both genders’ inability to hold onto sobriety and monogamy. Perhaps in a few years listeners will turn their radios on and hear The Weeknd singing about settling down, getting married and being happy. But for now, the artist’s goals seem to be to appeal to the culture of low-lit parties and conversations whispered between sheets. And it’s working.

IU professor to speak at symposium An IU professor will be part of Ashland University College of Arts and Science’s biennial “Symposium Against Indifference” in Ashland, Ohio. This year’s theme for the symposium is environmental sustainability, according to a
Bennett to give performance From IDS reports
IU Auditorium announced Tony Bennett will perform as the official start to its 75th anniversary season. Bennett will appear Sept. 20 at IU Auditorium. “We are thrilled to welcome Mr. Bennett back to the Auditorium stage,” managing director of IU Auditorium Maria Talbert said in an email. “We are presenting Tony Bennett not only because he is a living legend, but also because he is as shining example of the qualities we hold dear as an organization: excellence, longevity and relevance to audiences of all ages and backgrounds — something that is of particular poignancy in this, our 75th anniversary year.” “This performance is a rare opportunity for our audiences to witness this musical legend live on stage,” IU Auditorium Director Doug Booher said in a press release. Talbert said Bennett’s last performance at IU Auditorium was in 1993. Bennett’s musical career has progressed during the past six decades, as he’s collaborated with famed artists such as Michael Bublé, John Mayer and Lady Gaga. He has sold more than 10 million records within the last 10 years, according to the release, and he has received a total of 17 Grammy Awards throughout his career. “Mr. Bennett is a one-ofa-kind performer, and is the last great song-stylist from the golden era of jazz-inspired crooners that defined the genre,” Talbert said in an email. “Not only is he an original in the company of the other performances on our schedule this season, he

is unique amongst all artists everywhere. Mr. Bennett may have inspired many new generations of great singers, but there’s nothing like seeing the man that started it all!” Bennett will perform a
blend of new pieces and classic jazz standards with a group of specially chosen musicians for his show at IU Auditorium, according to the release. Tickets are currently on sale online or at the IU
Auditorium Box Office. For students, tickets start at $30 with a valid student ID. Tickets start at $58 for the general public. Bridget Murray
Jacobs lecture series begins Friday By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@umail.iu.edu @bemcafee24601
The Musicology Colloquium Series, a series in the musicology department of the Jacobs School of Music, begins with Ayana Smith’s lecture “Specularity, or, What a Comet, the Telescope, and Mirrors Have to Do with SeventeenthCentury Italian Opera. ” Smith, associate professor of music, said musicology is a humanities discipline that focuses on the historical study of music. It includes topics like the study of composers and how their work was influenced, gender studies, manuscript studies, interpretation of texts and historical performance studies, she said. Her lecture begins at 12:30
p.m. Friday, Sept. 4. The Musicology Colloquium Series started in 2000. Lectures in the series occur on Fridays throughout the semester. Professor of music Daniel Melamed said the series is a scholarly forum where faculty and students in the musicology department present their research. Smith said it allows people to voice new ideas before an audience or practice for upcoming conferences. Smith said her lecture is a work in progress, and the research she is presenting has multiple layers. She said she looked at the art, music, literature and science of the late 17th century and studied how they intersect. She examined the connections between the sci-
entific activities of observing objects, such as comets, and experimenting with ocular devices, such as telescopes and mirrors, and looking at how they influence the literature, art and operas of the time. Smith enjoys both the social and intellectual aspect of the Musicology Colloquium Series, she said, because faculty and students can come together and give feedback on each other’s work. “For me, it’s a way of connecting with other colleagues and also with students,” Smith said. “It’s a way of discussing the most recent research that other people are coming up with.” The Musicology Colloquium Series is also an opportunity for students to learn how to develop and present their
ideas with a space open to free discussion, Smith said. “I think — for graduate students — that’s especially helpful to have a platform that’s noncritical for getting feedback, for having the opportunity of speaking and presenting about your new research in front of a crowd of people,” Smith said. The discussion after the lecture allows the presenters to sharpen and improve their research, Melamed said. “The most important part of it is the discussions we have afterward,” he said. Melamed said he is looking forward to seeing the wide variety of presentations in the Musicology Colloquium Series. “The range of topics is as broad as the field,” Melamed said.

Chic in the heat — how to stay cool when the temperature won’t Keeping it cool in unbearable heat is not always an easy task. Dressing head-to-toe in these endof-the-season must-haves won’t make you sacrifice style for functionality. Senior Elizabeth Baert was spotted wearing a patterned romper from Zara on her way to an interview at Urban Outfitters. “It’s super flow-y and not clingy, which is a must in this absurd, sauna-like heat,” she said. She paired the romper with strappy sandals — great for long walks to class, yet breathable and bearable in rising temperatures. “It’s loose and fun,” she said. “It’s one article, so I don’t have to mess with a bunch of pieces.” Easy, breezy, fabulous. Baert followed rule No. 1 when under the sun: keep your clothes free and loose. Printed dresses and everything pastel for these last few weeks of summer are great choices to prep for the heat. With Labor Day just around the corner, it’s time to squeeze in the white jeans and soft hues before packing them away for the long months ahead. And girls are not the only ones concerned with staying cool. Senior Kyle Swanson was seen wearing a Vineyard Vines tee and khaki’s to class Tuesday. “It’s really vibrant and colorful,” he said. “It was the coolest thing in my wardrobe.” Dark colors absorb heat, so opting for light and

bright colors is the smartest way to feel breezy and protected. When it seems too easy to throw on a tank and athletic shorts, stylish students fight the urge in crocheted tunics and floral runner shorts. Senior Sabrina Alvarez opted for a white cotton V-neck from H&M — simple yet stylish with her statement necklace. Avoiding synthetic fibers like rayon and polyester will encourage breathability. Cotton absorbs sweat and dries faster; sticking to simple colors and accenting with light-weight jewelry is a great way to decorate any look. “It’s 90 degrees out, so I needed something that was comfy and flowy,” Alvarez said. She paired her top with high-waisted lounge shorts, a fabulous option for a practical, minimalist look. “The hotter it is, the less makeup I want to wear because I’m just going to sweat it off anyway,” Alvarez said. She makes a good case for shortening the morning ritual. With summer weather coming to an end, the forecast for fall looks stylish and sophisticated in new neutrals and long coats. Stay tuned for more of September’s a la mode. goldmann@indiana.edu

Well House appears in romance novel By Cassie Heeke cnheeke@indiana.edu | @cnheeke
In 1966, Mark Van Voorhis enrolled in IU’s ROTC program, and Ed Kugler was shipped off to Vietnam as a Marine. Forty years later, the two friends brought to life an idea for a novel. It would be a book about the war, life in Indiana and a tragic romance. Van Voorhis, a self-described romantic, said the first version, self-published more than a decade ago, wasn’t ideal. It was much too long, making it a difficult read. So, in the last two years, he and Kugler rewrote their book, “The Well House,” which he said he’s wholly proud of. “I believe this fictional novel is the first romance/war novel of its kind that includes the rich tradition of Indiana University, Bloomington, events and places in Indiana and Chicago and the small farming community of Hope, Indiana during the 1960’s Vietnam era,” he said. The book begins inside the mind of a soldier, Clayton, about to die in Vietnam. His final thought is of Maggie,
a very close friend he made during his time as a student at IU before he enlisted in the Marines and was sent to war. The reader sees Maggie’s written letters to Clayton throughout the book. Van Voorhis said these were written in collaboration with archivist, historian, writer and artist Kathleen Connors. The segments about Vietnam, on the other hand, were written largely by Kugler, who was a sniper during his 2 1/2 years in the Marines. In the novel, the reader learns Clayton and Maggie met at the Well House — a gift to IU from Theodore F. Rose and listed on the National Register for Historical Landmarks — forming an anchor throughout story. Along with being a student at IU, Maggie works for what is now the Indiana Daily Student. Van Voorhis said he experienced the turmoil during the Vietnam war first-hand while on campus, in the midst of passionate, though nonviolent, opposition. “It is our desire and belief that the book captures the hope, values, customs and

heart of the Hoosier spirit,” Van Voorhis said. Van Voorhis said he and Kugler hope everyone who reads the novel remembers it when they visit the Well House, and that they recall the structure as where Clayton and Maggie met. “The Well House” is meant to appeal to IU students and alumni, residents of Chicago and Hope, Vietnam war veterans and the baby boomers of that era, Van Voorhis said.
It is available at the IU and TIS bookstores and may be purchased through Amazon. Van Voorhis now lives in Spanish Fort, Utah, but he said he hopes to return to Bloomington to promote the novel. Though the release of “The Well House” was a major accomplishment, he has one more goal in mind. He’d like to turn it into a movie if the possibility arises. “I think it’s a great story,” he said.

PAGE 10 | SEPT. 3, 2015
Modern take on dystopian thriller from top to bottom, is able to accomplish so many different moods in just one episode. There are times where it feels like a spy thriller, romance, horror and comedy, even though the most hilarious moments are tied to distressing matters. Along with the camerawork, the score of “Mr. Robot” is crucial to the overall vibe. The background music pulses in a way that is mildly traumatizing. It complements the show’s frantic tone to a tee. One scene in particular, outside of a jail, combines the vivacious beat to cop sirens, which is not only perfect for the scene but haunting in a way that sticks with you. All of the shooting and music is fantastic, but it wouldn’t work without a solid plot. Taking ideas and leitmotifs from movies such as “American Psycho,”“Fight Club” and “The Dark Knight,” “Mr. Robot” makes plenty of jabs at the society we live in and attempts to paint a darker, Gotham-like world. Alongside hacking, the show also focuses on Elliot’s inner thoughts and anxieties. As the main character becomes more and more unhinged, the storyline becomes more chaotic around him. When discussing the plot, it seems necessary to reference Martin Wallström’s portrayal
‘Mr. Robot’ Rami Malek, Christian Slater A Making a show about hackers often ends in failure. It seems that every time a new portrayal of this profession is shown, the dialogue is cheesy and the plot is contrived. However, creator Sam Esmail and the USA Network, all the way out of left field, have created a gem in the drama-thriller “Mr. Robot.” Starring Rami Malek as Elliot Alderson and Christian Slater as Mr. Robot, this new show has managed to blend drama, tension and dark comedy in a perfect swirl. In the vein of “Breaking Bad” and “Fargo,” “Mr. Robot’s” best feature is its cinematography, which perfectly sets the mood. Characters are never centered and are usually placed in awkward positions, such as in the corners of the screen, which provides a haunting sense of loneliness that is prevalent throughout the show. The scenes also cut quickly from one to another, not allowing anything to drag or take away from the action. It is rare that a show,

of Tyrell Wellick, who has become the most polarizing character on all of television. The show immediately depicts him as your run-ofthe-mill businessman but as the episodes progress, his shadowy past and way of life comes to light. Most
shows would jump right into such an interesting character, but “Mr. Robot” has the patience that most shows don’t have in building a character before showing what is hidden inside of him or her. Overall, “Mr. Robot” is
such a bold and tremendous show that it’s kind of shocking that a show of this caliber would be found on basic cable television and not HBO or Showtime. Even with everything working against this unknown, “Mr. Robot” has
proven that a great show can be anywhere. Sam Esmail has created something stunning and with the first season now over, it should be at the top of everyone’s TV binge list.
