Schools react to Trump policy

By Lyndsay Jones jonesly@indiana.edu | @lyndsayjonesy

The Trump administration withdrew former President Obama’s Title IX guidance Wednesday, which allowed public school students to use restrooms of their choice.

Andrew Clampitt, a spokesperson for Monroe County Community School Corporation, said the reversal of the guidance changes nothing for MCCSC schools regarding treatment and policy toward transgender students.

“As a school corporation we are forward-thinking in all aspects of diversity,” Clampitt said. “We mean ‘all’ in the truest sense of the word.”

Clampitt said Bloomington High School North and South include four all-gender, also known as “gender neutral,” bathrooms between them — two at each school.

“All of these bathrooms are accessible for any student and specific questions are certainly encouraged,” Clampitt said.

In a letter the Department of Education and the Department of Justice jointly issued Wednesday, the Trump administration said concerns over litigation and “due regard for the primary role of the States and local school districts in establishing educational policy” were among reasons for withdrawing the Obama administration’s guidance.

The Obama administration’s guidance was not an official piece of legislation but an interpretation of existing Title IX law.

When it was issued in the form of a “Dear Colleague” letter in May 2016, it directed every public school to allow transgender students to use the bathroom of their choice. Title IX’s prohibitions of discrimination on the basis of sex were interpreted as also extending to transgender students.

“In recent years, we have received an increasing number of questions from parents, teachers, principals and school superintendents about civil rights protections for transgender students,” the letter read. “Title IX of the SEE TITLE IX, PAGE 8

Sophomore Tyana Hendricks sits at the Herman B Wells Library west tower circulation desk. Hendricks worked from 3 to 8 a.m Wednesday morning and works three other overnight shifts every week.

Wells after dark From 3 to 8 a.m., an IU student works the graveyard shift at the library

By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@iu.edu | @SarahVerschoor

A 4 a.m. stint at Herman B Wells Library is a final resort for some students, a last-ditch effort to finish a presentation or complete a term paper.

But for sophomore Tyana Hendricks, late nights at Wells are part of her job.

Hendricks works at the west tower circulation desk four times a week from 11:45 p.m. to 5 a.m. Mondays and Thursdays, 3 to 8 a.m. Wednesdays and 9 p.m. to 12 a.m. Fridays.

She clocks nearly 28 hours per week and is taking 18 credit hours.

“It’s a lot easier than RPS where you’re on your feet all day,” Hendricks said. “It’s the best on-campus job.”

Hendricks and others who work at the desk are responsible for organizing books for professors and their students, answering questions and managing the lost and found.

Though Hendricks’ tuition is covered through financial aid and scholarship, she works these hours to pay her rent.

She lives at Campus Corner where she pays $629 per month for her space in a two-bedroom apartment she shares with a

roommate.

Unlike some students who prioritize when to do their work, Hendricks said she plans when to sleep.

Mondays she does not have classes, so she said she is in bed all day.

Her Wells shift lasts from 11:45 p.m. to 5 a.m, so after, she heads home, takes a sleeping pill and hopes to get some sleep before her class at 9:30 a.m., Tuesday.

Her Tuesday classes end at 5:15 p.m., and she returns to her apartment and sleeps until 1:30 a.m.

She then takes an IU Safety Escort to Wells, arriving at 2 a.m., an hour before her shift.

The ride service ends at 2.

She waits, sometimes watches Netflix, then begins work at 3 a.m.

Her schedule has affected her mental health, she said.

“My anxiety has skyrocketed,” Hendricks said.

It is hard to juggle work and being away from family in Kansas and her boyfriend, who lives in northern Indiana, Hendricks said.

Hendricks’ drive to work comes from her family. Her mother and step-father both work two jobs and her 15-year-

old sister has a job.

“My mom raised us to be hardworking,” Hendricks said.

Hendricks said she must be cautious working late at night.

She takes a safety escort to work and a taxi back home.

“I need to have some sort of protection,” Hendricks said.

“No one sane is up at 5 a.m., but it’s better safe than sorry.”

Hendricks is responsible for safety procedures in the west tower within Wells.

The doors to the west tower lock at 12 a.m. and only people with a university ID can open them.

She said there is usually no trouble, but sometimes they do get drunk people wandering around.

Last semester, she said a drunk man came in looking for a pen and paper so he could write a letter to his girlfriend.

He approached Hendricks and asked her about her love life.

A night security guard helped her deal with the man and soon after he was put on a library trespassing list preventing him from entering the library again, Hendricks said.

“What’s most usual is frat guys coming in drunk,” Hendricks said. “They’re just

working on K201 and Kelley stuff. They’re harmless.”

Hendricks also manages a lost and found at her desk.

They usually collect IDs, laptop chargers and other assorted supplies but once received an olive green bralette.

Paige Burns, who works at the west circulation desk with Hendricks, said the oddest thing she has seen while working is a girl who walked in wearing a red and black plaid onesie.

Burns is a library science graduate student who is working at Wells while she looks for a full-time job.

Hendricks said that even with the long nights, some very long, she doesn’t consider quitting. The money and her coworkers are too important to her.

Hendricks takes a 15-minute break each shift. To recharge and get some caffeine, she sips on sodas, sometimes Tahitian Treat, a fruit punch soda that she used to drink back home in Kansas.

For those brief moments, Hendricks is reminded of her home.

She is able to relax and continue through her five-hour shift in the middle of the night.

Hoosiers Theater department stages ‘The Tempest’ hope to end losing streak

Despite posting a 2-7 record after two nonconference tournaments, IU Coach Michelle Gardner said there’s no pressure on her team entering this weekend.

The Hoosiers will head south to Alabama to take part in a tournament that Samford University and the University of Alabama at Birmingham are co-hosts to. Losers of their last four games, the Hoosiers have focused on fundamental drills in practice this past week.

“I think we’re trying to focus on executing,” Gardner said. “I don’t want them to worry about the teams on the other side of the field.”

Of IU’s four opponents this weekend, only Samford reached the NCAA Tournament in 2016.

However, the Bulldogs are only 2-8 this season.

IU will also face Iowa State, Murray State and UAB this weekend.

The Hoosiers will play the Blazers, currently 1-7, twice, presenting an opportunity to post a winning record in a tournament for the first time this season.

“If you look at us as a team and not our record, I think we’re SEE SOFTBALL, PAGE 8

The show begins with a bang. A storm is projected onstage, onto a group sailing through the choppy waters. Images of sinister beings appear in the background and the sense of ominous dread is punctuated by the tone of the score.

After the initial scene come the introductions of Miranda and Prospero, a daughter and father stranded on an island full of spirits, a place they were cast to by a vengeful family member.

The story of Prospero and his trials are told in “The Tempest,” which will debut 7:30 p.m. Friday at the Ruth N. Halls Theatre.

The play, penned by William Shakespeare, has been staged many times since its debut in the 1600s, but the IU Department of Theatre and Drama’s version includes a variety of novel elements, including a completely redone audio score.

Anthony Stoeri, sound designer for the show and second-year master of fine arts student, worked with director Henry Woronicz and composer and Jacobs School of Music student Paul Mortilla, to put together the various lighting and sound elements of the show.

“There are a lot of moments where there are technical elements that need to play off and connect with each other in a way that requires a lot of attention to detail,” Stoeri said. “But it’s also been really fun to create an environment that’s as rich as this one is and as free to be whatever we want it to be.”

Part of the sound designer’s job was sitting down with Woronicz and figuring out when to introduce music, which the director hoped to focus on, and when to focus simply on tones or percussive texture, Stoeri said.

Stoeri said he was able to learn not only the technical aspects of sound in a production such as this, but from the perspective of emphasizing parts of the plot and story that should stand out from the technical flourishes.

IU, city talk roles in immigration enforcement

By Jesse Naranjo jlnaranj@indiana.edu @jesselnaranjo

Administrators, faculty and students joined Mayor John Hamilton and others in a forum Thursday afternoon to discuss anxieties regarding the political and legal climate in the country, specifically following the nowenjoined executive order signed last month regarding immigration.

Speakers included Provost Lauren Robel, professor Dawn Johnsen , IU Student Association President Sara Zaheer and various faculty members and student group leaders. After the first seven speakers at “Our Community in Today’s Political Context: Facts, Fears, and Responses,” the microphone was opened to those in attendance, many of whom took the opportunity to express their frustrations, concerns and plans in response to the federal government’s immigration actions.

Many speakers discussed their fear of Immigration & Customs Enforcement conducting raids in Bloomington and questioned whether local law enforcement would participate or aid in executing warrants.

Hamilton, denouncing the federal government’s current immigration policies, explained how the court and jail system in Bloomington is run by the county, not city government.

It is the job of the county, not the Bloomington Police Department, to detain people after they are arrested.

“We have no intention of becoming an arm of ICE,” Hamilton said.

The city’s practices do not currently violate any laws, he said. His priority is protecting every Bloomington resident.

Those residents include students who are part of an institution which Robel said is in a vulnerable state.

“We’re at a point where public universities in particular are facing higher levels of, I would say, vulnerability, to federal policy initiatives than I can remember in my 21 years as a faculty member on this campus,” Robel said.

She repeated remarks she made in the past weeks expressing the negative implications of the executive order, particularly to faculty research, current and potential students whose studies were interrupted by the travel ban. Robel also expressed uncertainty for future legislation, especially in regard to students covered by the Obama administration’s policy on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA. The memos ordering DACA’s enforcement are still in place, she said, but this does not mean they will remain in place, regardless of what the president has said. She gave the example of rollback on federal protections for transgender students which were signed Wednesday, calling the level of activity on the federal level unprecedented.

Robel admitted the University will inevitably make decisions in the future which many in the community will not agree with, but asked for patience, especially in the face of uncertainty.

“Please don’t think we don’t care,” Robel said.

The discussion mainly focused on legal ramifications for undocumented immigrants, and all speakers expressed support for their undocumented peers and colleagues. Johnsen spoke first, followed by Hamilton and Robel. Johnsen served as Acting Assistant Attorney General and in the

Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel under former President Bill Clinton.

Courts normally take the side of United States presidents who make executive orders regarding national security, but they also understand the extraordinary circumstances of the current administration, she said. Like Trump, cities in Indiana face difficulty from other governmental agencies.

“The problem for us here in Indiana is the state government controls that,” Johnsen said, and referenced Indiana Senate Bill

423, a law which passed through committee Tuesday and would ban universities from declaring sanctuary campus status.

Johnsen said while federal courts can be a good check on executive overreach and wrongdoings of an administration, the real power lies in regular citizens who elect legislators.

Professor Alex Lichtenstein, who said he testified on behalf of the sanctuary campus bill before the Indiana Senate on Wednesday, said there were two important issues to face: the executive order and the overzealous enforcement of

immigration laws.

S.B. 423 is a vague and strange bill because it prohibits “formal” and “informal” policies which would go against federal efforts, Lichtenstein said. He told the legislators this when he testified, which he said made them angry.

Lichtenstein said he did not think it was realistic for IU to take a position which would violate federal law.

Still, he expects ICE to engage in local efforts soon. ”It’s going to happen,” he said. “I think we need to confront that as a possibility.”

Ground rules for

response to any federal request should be established, and there can be difference between complying with federal law and collaborating with it, he said.

Lichtenstein said he wondered whether IUPD would detain students when asked to do so or whether they would tell ICE to execute its own warrant. If the federal government tried to challenge an IU position as “unofficial policy,” he said he expected the University to respond accordingly.

“I hope the University will say what the president said: ‘See you in court,’” Lichtenstein said.

Weather highlights climate change in SustainIU Week

By Lydia Gerike lgerike@umail.iu.edu @lydi_yeah

In the middle of SustainIU Week, students fighting climate change found themselves wearing shorts in February because of the unusually high temperatures they are trying to prevent.

“It’s been a massive internal conflict,” said sophomore Stanley Njuguna, who helped organize the week’s events.

This year, SustainIU

includes awareness efforts such as a series of lectures and a seedling giveaway.

Students had planned to wear beach clothes around campus to remind people that climate change happens all year long, but the weather did that for them.

Temperatures were 20 degrees above average all week, according to intellicast.com.

It was 64 degrees outside when Njuguna, 20, argued Tuesday against IU’s lack of climate change policy in the

Whittenberger Auditorium.

IU’s sustainability numbers are much worse than many Big Ten rivals.

For the 2016 Game Day Recycling Challenge, IU sent about 80 percent of all football stadium waste to a landfill, while challenge winner Ohio State University’s rate was about 4 percent.

The abnormal weather helps make a point, but this week alone doesn’t prove climate change is real, Njuguna said.

He pointed to a

February 2015 speech in which Sen. Jim Inhofe, ROklahoma, tried to dispute climate change by bringing a snowball to the Senate. For Njuguna, neither extreme holds merit.

Instead, Njuguna works to educate the community on the long-term, smaller effects of climate change.

Senior Elli Bock is convinced the current weather can be used to see wider trends.

“How much more proof can you get that climate

Although he has worn shorts and gone longboarding because of the warmth, he kept to long sleeves and jeans Tuesday because he knew those items are what he should be wearing this time of year, he said.

If you have reported or been accused of sexual assault at IU, we want to hear from you.

By Hannah Boufford hbouffor@umail.iu.edu @hannahboufford

Etai Pinkas, an LGBTQ activist in Israel, spoke to a 12-person audience about the history of LGBTQ rights in Israel on Thursday evening in Woodburn Hall.

The Helene G. Simon Hillel Center organized the event, which was co-sponsored by other Jewish and LGBTQ associations in an effort to encourage discussion of gay culture in Israel.

“It’s a diverse country,” said Yotam Elias, 26, a Jewish Agency Israel Fellow at Hillel.

An Israeli flag hung on a blackboard brought a splash of blue color to the white-walled room.

Growing up, Pinkas said he wanted to be a politician, but upon realizing he was not straight he decided his goal was unattainable and abandoned his dream.

He thought it would be too difficult for a gay man to get elected in Israel at the time.

However, he was elected as a city council member in 2003, after serving as chairman of the national LGBTQ association in Israel.

“Only then I realized that my old dream, that I thought was not possible, was fulfilled without even my intention to go back to my dream,” Pinkas said.

Bock said.

During her sophomore year, Bock served as the sustainability chair of Sigma Delta Tau sorority.

In the position, she educated others about sustainable actions as simple as turning off the lights in empty rooms.

He attended Njuguna’s talk and also said he

relationship to be called into military service at the same time, leaving the children home alone.

This is a problem for Israelis, he said.

In a heterosexual relationship, when a man is called to serve, the wife stays home to tend to the children, he said.

However, in a gay relationship, both parents ran the risk of being called upon at the same time.

The Pinkas family was asked to be the poster family for legislation to prevent this from happening.

“We agreed, of course,” Pinkas said.

An image displayed on the screen in Woodburn depicted Pinkas and his partner sitting with their three daughters on a couch as Pinkas discussed the

legislation with the gathered crowd.

In the image, both men were wearing their army uniforms.

Pinkas said the LGBTQ community is not the only group fighting for marriage rights and equality in Israel.

He said there were also issues with cross-religion marriages in Israel.

“I don’t see it getting solved soon, but at least we are getting more rights, that are not being achieved under the marriage headline, but are being resolved one by one,” he said.

Senior Mitch Cooper, an intern at Hillel, said he helps coordinate events to bring different speakers to talk about Israeli culture to students on campus.

Cooper said there is a strong LGBTQ community

on campus, and he thought it would be nice to bring someone from that background to speak.

Edan Gomez, a senior studying political science, attended the discussion to help support a friend who helped plan the event.

The discussion of LGBTQ rights in Israel is important, he said.

“I don’t think it’s a very well known issue,” he said.

“It’s something a lot of people don’t talk about.”

Cooper said having Pinkas on campus allowed students to learn about an aspect of Israeli life they may not have heard about before.

“I hope to see people learn the different side to Israel, which is often in the media in a light that’s not so pleasant,” he said.

Then-junior forward Collin Hartman runs around ound an Ohio State defender in January of 2016 at Assembly Hall. Hartman has yet to play this season, but will be honored Saturday.

he slide has continued for IU. Losers of five consecutive games, the Hoosiers are a junior guard Josh Newkirk layup at the buzzer away from having lost eight straight

games.

IU will look to break that streak Saturday against Northwestern, who comes into Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall in the hopes of solidifying its NCAA Tournament chances and avoiding a second straight damaging loss.

For the Hoosiers, it will also be senior night for senior forward Collin Hartman, who has missed the entire season after having knee surgery. Hartman could potentially return next season, but his future plans remain unclear.

The two teams played earlier this season and Northwestern beat IU, 68-55. Since that game, the Wildcats have been inconsistent, losing four out of their last six games.

Indiana native and Northwestern junior guard Bryant McIntosh looks to have a strong game after struggling in his first appearance at Assembly Hall last season. While McIntosh struggles from 3-point range — shooting 26.4 percent — he has one of the best assist rates in the country.

His assist rate of 33.9 percent is good for 29th in the nation, and he helps pace a Wildcat attack that only turns the ball over on 15.6 percent of its possessions,

loss to Iowa on Tuesday night as IU had 22 turnovers against the Hawkeyes.

The Wildcats force turnovers on only 18 percent of possessions, which is only good enough for 216th in the country. Junior guard Robert Johnson said turnovers have hurt IU at the ends of games.

“I think that is one of the details that hurt us down

the stretch,” Johnson said. “We talked about just being more aware of certain situations that produce turnovers.”

The turnover conundrum is mind-boggling for IU Coach Tom Crean.

“We just get away from the fundamental base in post-feeding or driving it baseline when the post is loaded,” Crean said. “It’s not how we practice.”

It’s not the turnovers that have hurt IU all season, it’s their untimely nature. During the current losing streak, IU has had four losses that have all been within six points or fewer. Late in those games, turnovers come back to bite the Hoosiers.

That was the case in the loss to the Hawkeyes.

“Twelfth game where it is three points or less under a minute to go,” Crean said. “It’s disheartening that we play as hard as we play. We make our mistakes, as do the other teams, to not have it go our way. They’re working their tail off.”

Even with the Hoosiers on a long losing slide and their postseason hopes all but extinguished, the players remain positive.

“At the end of the day, I think everybody is just going to fight, just keep fighting is the bottom line” Johnson said. “It’s frustrating where a lot of these close games end up as losses, but as I said, we’re just going to keep fighting.”

Workshop introduces acutonics

By Christine Fernando ctfernan@indiana.edu | @christinetfern

The event was titled “Introduction to Sound Healing,” but the evening began in silence.

Fifteen attendees sat in a circle Thursday at Inner Light Bloomington, surrounding three metal bowls and a collection of multicolored tuning forks atop a blue cloth.

Each person looked at the other attendees’ faces, breathed in and meditated as the smell of burning sage filled the air.

By looking at one another, sound healing practitioner Carol Cobine said attendees would be able to create a sacred space for one another.

This space would allow them to support and respect one another — a necessity for successful sound healing therapy.

“Each one of us has a connection to the other,” Cobine said as attendees looked around the room.

Cobine said sound healing or acutonics is a form of restorative therapy central in holistic health practices.

Acutonics is also similar to acupuncture, but uses sound and tuning forks rather than needles, she said.

The core of sound healing is the idea that everything in the universe vibrates, Cobine said. These vibrations can be sensed and replicated by using tuning forks that allow practitioners to find balance between themselves and the universe.

“We’re living in an orchestra in this universe,” Cobine

said. “The planets, moons and Sun are all players. We are all players.”

The sound the combined vibrations of this orchestra creates is referred to as the music of the spheres, Cobine said. This idea is rooted in scientific history, beginning with the work of Kepler and Pythagoras.

The music of the spheres is based on ancient calculations, Cobine said. But she said these vibrations have also been confirmed by NASA. In addition to a scientific aspect, Cobine said acutonics also has a spiritual element as well.

“It tunes the body, mind, spirit and soul with nature,” Cobine said.

Inner Light director Stacey Conlin said sound healing can bring about a variety of effects, including relaxation

and stress relief. The practice can also help with pain and reproductive and digestive problems, Conlin said.

Cobine said sound healing also allows people to clear their minds and look within themselves. In doing so, they recognize imbalances and let themselves heal.

“We are our own experts,” Cobine said. “We are the best people to look within and listen to what our bodies are saying to us.”

Conlin said she was excited for an opportunity to expand her knowledge about acutonics and hoped attendees would be able to do so as well. She said she hopes attendees will walk out with more understanding and appreciation of acutonics and holistic health in general.

She said she also wants acutonics to help people

overcome the stress and obstacles in their lives.

“It’s about finding balance and healing,” Cobine said. “It’s easy to get stressed and preoccupied with life, but here you can restore balance.”

Cobine said she hopes attendees will be able to leave equipped to restore more balance into their lives and to help themselves heal.

“Acutonics is centered on vibratory energy,” Cobine said. “It’s about balancing energy within yourself and realizing your connection with everything that surrounds you.”

Realizing this connection is the first step to healing, Cobine said.

“Once you look within and listen to your body, you can heal,” Cobine said. “You can connect with the vibrations of the planets, stars and moons.”

The end of the week marks the final deadline for bills to pass through committee in the Indiana legislature.

That leaves a big question — which ones made it through, and which ones won’t see the light of day?

And what happens next?

Bills that pass through committee have to be read and then passed by the full chamber of either the House or Senate. If that’s already happened, they’ll be sent over to the opposite house of the Indiana General Assembly from where it was introduced. The process then starts over completely — the bill will be considered by a committee in the other house. If anything, even a single semicolon, is changed in the opposing house committee, the bill must be then agreed upon by a conference committee. Finally, the governor has to sign or veto the bill.

The committee report deadline for Senate bills was Thursday. Here’s the progress of bills IDS has been following, plus a few extra: SB 179 - Superintendent Status: Defeated on Senate floor Authors: Sen. James Buck, R-Kokomo; Sen. Eric Bassler, R-Washington; Sen. Greg Walker, R-Columbus.

This bill would have made the Superintendent of Public Instruction an appointed position rather than an elected one. It failed on the Senate floor, but a similar bill — HB 1005, authored by House Speaker Rep. Brian Bosma, passed the full House chambers and was referred to the Senate Committee on Rules and Legislative Procedure.

Opponents of these bills have said they take power away from the people. They’ve also expressed concerns that the bills don’t list enough qualification requirements for the newly appointed school chief.

SB 276 - Pre-K funding Status: Passed committee Authors: Sen. Travis Holdman, R-Markle; Sen. Eric Bassler; Sen. Randall Head, R-Logansport.

Multiple news sources reported Thursday that while a Senate committee passed its version of a Pre-K grant program expansion bill, it did so after severely cutting included fund amounts. Its House

sister bill passed through the full chambers and was referred to committee in the Senate.

The Pre-K grant program expansion was initially heralded as a focus of Gov. Eric Holcomb’s legislative agenda.

Holcomb pushed for a $10 million increase for the On My Way Pre-K grant program.

But the Senate appropriations committee slashed that number to a $3 million increase.

The sister bill, HB 1004, was authored by Rep. Robert Behning, R-Indianapolis. HB 1004 has been assigned to the Senate education and career development committee.

SB 420 - Old forest areas Status: Didn’t pass committee Authors: Sen. Eric Bassler, Sen. Jon Ford, R-Terre Haute Senate Bill 420 would preserve 10 percent of each state forest as a designated “old forest area,” free from logging.

Dozens crowded into a small room to give testimony Feb. 13, but the bill appears to have not ever been voted on, according to the Indiana General Assembly website.

The Indiana Forest Alliance, a forest preservationist group that brought the bill to the legislature’s attention, organized a rally earlier this week in support of the bill and in opposition to the Department of Natural Resources’ forest management style.

The IFA has protested increases in logging in state forests. Since 2001, the number of trees sold at DNR auctions has increased nearly sixfold, and the money loggers have paid for the trees has increased about fivefold.

Senate Bill 309 - Net metering Status: Passed in Senate committee Author: Sen. Brandt Hershman, R-Buck Creek This bill received considerable backlash and was amended heavily as a result.

It would remove net metering in Indiana, a process used to give incentive to renewable energy users.

When an individual’s solar panels produce excess energy, that energy goes back into the energy grid, and the user will be compensated for it at the retail price, as law stands today. This exchange is referred to as net metering. Hershman authored this legislation to slowly wean renewable energy users off net metering.

After amendments, the bill states people with solar panels already installed will

receive the retail rate for 30 years, after which point they’ll be compensated at a much lesser, wholesale rate. Those who install panels within the next five years will receive the retail rate for putting energy back into the grid until 2032. * * * The House deadline for passing bills out of committee was Tuesday. Here’s what made it through.

HB 1002 - Tax and infrastructure Status: passed through House committee, full House; assigned to Senate committee Author: Rep. Edmond Soliday, R-Valparaiso Perhaps the most-discussed fiscal bill on the agenda in 2017, House Bill 1002, would hike up Indiana’s gas tax in order to fund infrastructure improvements.

The gas tax would increase from 18 cents annually to 28, which Soliday said makes up for a lack of adjusting to inflation since 2002. It would also tie the tax to inflation from now until 2024, so it could possibly increase up to 1 cent each year. Democrats oppose the bill, which passed the House 61-36, according to the Indiana General Assembly website. Some Republicans who’ve vowed into the past to not hike up taxes of any sort also rose in opposition to the bill.

According to the IGA website, the bill has been assigned to the Senate tax and fiscal policy committee.

HB 1003 - ISTEP replacement Status: Passed House committee and full floor; referred to Senate committee Author: Rep. Robert Behning.

This bill replaces the controversial ISTEP assessment with a new test: ILEARN.

ISTEP was criticized for not aligning with state standards, being too long and causing scoring delays. The new test, supporters say, would be shorter and distributed during one testing window later in the year instead of two. Indiana teachers could grade the assessments themselves.

The new test likely wouldn’t be implemented for a few years. Rep. Ed DeLaney, D-Indianapolis, from the House education committee voiced concerns about the transition period between tests. Democrats in the House education committee expressed concerns earlier in the hearing process that the new test won’t be much different from ISTEP. HB 1130 - Student journalist protections Status: Passed House committee and full floor; referred to Senate committee Author: Rep. Ed Clere, RNew Albany House Bill 1130 fortifies protections for student journalists in the state. It has received little opposition: in committee, it passed unanimously, and on the full floor, it only received four nays compared with 88 yeas, per the IGA website.

The bill would prevent school administrators from suppressing student-produced media unless it’s slanderous, libelous or extremely profane. Advisers, students and administrators from across Indiana trekked to the Statehouse on Valentine’s Day to support the legislation.

There were concerns during the committee hearing that the bill would give students too much liberty to haphazardly publish whatever they wanted. Apparently these concerns were not enough to bring any “no” votes. The bill will now be heard in the Senate committee on education and career development.

After audio release, number of tips in Delphi murder case doubles From IDS reports

Progress for 2017 Indiana legislation

By Alexa Chryssovergis

Editors Sarah Gardner and Melanie Metzman region@idsnews.com

Authorities investigating the murders of two central Indiana teenagers received nearly 2,000 tips in the day after the release of an audio recording of the possible killer.

The bodies of Abigail Williams, 13, and Liberty German, 14, were found Feb. 14 in woods near Delphi, a town in Carroll County, Indiana. The girls had gone missing the previous day. The joint investigation includes the Carroll County Sheriff ’s Office, Indiana State Police and the FBI. Law enforcement released Wednesday an audio recording containing the voice of an unidentified man considered to be a suspect. The brief snippet contains only three words: “Down the hill.” The audio comes from a cell phone video taken by German, as does a previously re-

leased, grainy image of the suspect.

According to an ISP press release sent to media early Thursday afternoon, the agencies have received a total of 3,900 tips in the case. Of those, 1,900 tips have come since the audio was released.

The reward for information leading to an arrest in the case has increased to $50,000 after a $9,000 donation from the office of Rep. Todd Rokita, RBrownsburg.

The FBI has expanded its request for information in the case, with about 6,000 electronic billboards across 46 states now being used for that purpose.

The case has also become a national media story since the audio was released Wednesday, with outlets including ABC News and the Washington Post picking up the story.

BLOOMINGTON BLOTTER

Hot mopeds, extreme wings, unwanted gym memberships and more From IDS reports

From a missing moped to a bar fight that allegedly involved an unusual weapon, a few odd and unexpected crimes were reported to the Bloomington Police Department this week. All of the following accounts were collected from BPD. Stool or no stool?

Police responded at about 2 a.m. Feb. 17 to Kilroy’s Sports Bar, where the complainant told police he’d been hit with a bar stool during a fight. The victim was bleeding from his lower lip but otherwise uninjured, and he and his friend, who were both intoxicated, frequently interrupted each other while talking to police.

A security guard who saw the fight told police the victim and his friend had been pushing the suspect and that no bar stool was involved in the fight.

Not “freaky fast” enough A man reported Sunday his moped was stolen after he locked it to a tree

in the middle of Peoples Park while he went into the Jimmy John’s across the street. When he returned, the moped was gone. He told police he doesn’t want to press charges, he just wants his moped back.

The wrong kind of warm-up Police arrested a Bloomington man Monday after he allegedly threatened to burn down a Planet Fitness. Jeffrey Riley, 45, was charged with intimidation after he reportedly got in an argument with gym employees, whom he wanted to cancel his membership.

During the argument, he became heated and threatened to burn down the gym with everyone inside. He later told police he didn’t plan to follow through on the threats.

Unearned wings An employee of Wings Xtreme reported to police Wednesday a man at the restaurant had stolen $10 from the tip jar and then bought a meal.

Matthew Murry, a third year acting MFA playing the role of Prospero, said he wanted to take part in this because he came to graduate school with the goal of working on his dramatic acting.

“When it comes to Shakespeare, I didn’t get a lot of experience in my undergrad,” Murry said. “To play one of the leading characters in a Shakespeare show is one of the ultimate challenges.”

In addition to the technical differences, which Murry said come together onstage with the advanced lighting, sound and character set-up, there is also a distinct character difference in the way Prospero interacts with the Ariels, who cause him the most challenge and pain on the island as he fights to protect his daughter.

“There’s the idea that Henry has that the Ariels are not seen by Prospero, he never hones in on their location, and that’s very different,” Murry said. “Usually Ariel is one character and Prospero

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) and its implementing regulations prohibit sex discrimination in educational programs and activities operated by recipients of Federal financial assistance.

This prohibition encompasses discrimination based on a student’s gender identity, including discrimination based on a student’s transgender status.”

The letter, referred to as a guidance document, informed schools that compliance to Title IX included accommodations for and equal treatment of transgender students. A school’s failure to comply with the guidelines may have resulted in law suits or a loss of federal funding.

In the letter the DOE and DOJ issued, the Trump administration suggested the guidance document was questionable.

“These guidance documents do not contain extensive legal analysis or explain how the position is consistent with the express language of Title IX,” the letter said.

A statement from Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos said the federal government should not be the source of solutions for transgender students.

“This is an issue best solved at the state and local level,” DeVos said in the statement. “Schools, communities

sees him or her, whereas this time he does not see the Ariels, and there are three of them.”

One of Prospero’s main focuses is on power, Murry said.

“He has a lot of power

and families can find — and in many cases have found — solutions that protect all students.”

In a Wednesday press briefing, Press Secretary Sean Spicer said interpreting Title IX, which was enacted in 1972, as including protection for transgender students could be “preposterous.”

“And so it’s incumbent upon us to actually follow the law and to recognize that Title IX never talked about this,” Spicer said. “There was no discussion of this back then.

And to assume certain elements of the law were thought of back then with respect to this would be completely preposterous.”

Mara Keisling, Executive Director of the National Center for Transgender Equality, issued a statement Wednesday condemning the reversal.

“This Administration’s action sends a harmful message to transgender young people — that their government does not support them, and that it is fine to single out those who are different,” Keisling said in the statement. “But it does not change the legal and moral duty of schools to support all students. That’s why the nation’s education leaders and more and more schools in every part of the country are supporting transgender students, and that won’t change.”

The Trump administration has not offered a new view or interpretation of Title IX and

sex discrimination. Spicer said the reason the Obamaera guidance was revoked so quickly was due to an impending Supreme Court case regarding Title IX and transgender student Gavin Grimm.

Grimm is a transgender 17-year-old high school student from Virginia whose suit against his high school is scheduled to be heard by the Supreme Court on March 28. Grimm identifies as male and used male-identified bathrooms at his high school.

When the school received complaints, it changed its policy to mandate that students only use bathrooms that match their biological sex.

Grimm’s Supreme Court case may determine if the Supreme Court stands behind the Obama administration’s interpretation of Title IX’s protections extending to transgender students.

“I realize now this is a lot bigger than myself,” Grimm said in a video made by the American Civil Liberties Union. “And my greater goal now is to try to make things better for the people that come after me. I can’t speak for everybody, but there are things that need to be spoken about.”

that he has compiled on the island over these years,” Murry said. “There comes this huge decision when he

has to let go of that power in order to forgive the anger he’s held onto, the injustice that’s been done to him and his

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 growing faster than in years before,” junior infielder Rachel O’Malley said. “It’s about working hard in practice and trying to make it more game-like.”

IU has struggled hitting as a team, but O’Malley is off to the best start of her career. She leads the team in batting average and RBIs, and she is tied for the team lead in hits and doubles.

After starting slow last weekend, IU’s bats came alive, plating 12 runs in the tournament’s final two games. O’Malley played a big part in IU’s offensive revival, recording three hits and three RBI in the tournament.

“There have been plenty of games these past two tournaments where I’ve had great hitting games, but we didn’t win,” O’Malley said. ”That was more upsetting to me.”

Sophomore pitcher Emily Kirk will be unable to pitch for the second straight weekend after suffering a broken nose in the season’s first tournament. This means Gardner will again have a limited, three-pitcher rotation at her disposal.

IU allowed more than 1.5 runs per inning last weekend using the same rotation.

Sophomore pitcher Emily Kirk throws a pitch during a game against Ball State at Andy Mohr Field on April 20,2016. The Hoosiers beat the Cardinals 7-1.

The tournament schedule for this weekend has IU playing twice Friday and Sunday, but just once Saturday. This differs from last weekend, when IU played at night Friday and then twice Saturday.

Gardner said she feels this will help when it comes to managing innings thrown.

“We will try to go one, two and then have the third pitcher throw on Saturday,” Gardner said. “If we can get whole games out of them, then perfect.”

Even if IU’s pitching improves, its hitting will need to continue to be on the upswing. Most of the damage done by the Hoosiers this season has come with two outs.

IU hits at a .237 average

overall, but .298 with two outs. Additionally, 17 of the team’s 22 RBI have come in this situation.

“We have this idea that we don’t talk about average and we focus on if we got our job done,” O’Malley said. “If I get a hit when nobody’s on, then it’s just a hit.”

With noticeable improvements at the plate and a favorable tournament schedule to look forward to, Gardner cited last weekend as evidence of her team’s resiliency.

“Last week’s game against Texas showed our maturity,” Gardner said.

“We were tired and we came out and scored seven runs. They’re going to come out and play, I’m not worried about them.”

MEN’S TRACK AND FIELD

CHASING HIS DREAMS Junior Daniel Kuhn is setting records at IU after giving up the chance to play college baseball

By Austin Ghirardelli aghirard@imail.iu.edu | @a_ghirardelli

IU junior runner Daniel Kuhn has sacrificed plenty in his three years as a Hoosier.

Like many student athletes, Kuhn has had to give up his time and energy in order to excel the way he has at the college level.

But before he even arrived in Bloomington, Kuhn gave up a lifetime’s worth of work.

While growing up, Kuhn dedicated his entire life to playing baseball and committed to play at Trine University, but that all changed in his final year of high school.

During his senior year at Shelbyville High School in Shelbyville, Indiana, Kuhn was on the track team despite a lack of interest in the sport. The team convinced him to join by allowing him to only compete in the meets and skip practices. His natural talent led him to capturing the state championship in the 800-meter run, and he received a scholarship offer from IU. Kuhn was then faced with a life-changing decision to make, to stick with his lifelong dream of playing baseball or abruptly toss it to the side for an opportunity to run track.

“It was hard for me at the time,” Kuhn said. “I have always been so emotionally connected to baseball because it’s literally all I did since I was 4 years old.”

Kuhn made the decision to sacrifice it all the night he won his high school track state championship. He said he was lying in bed that night and couldn’t sleep because his emotions were all hitting him at once.

“I think I was more scared of taking the chance, and that’s why I said no to track for so long because my initial passion was baseball,” Kuhn said. “Then I realized my passion can change, and I realized I would regret it 10 years

down the road if I didn’t take this chance.”

His parents left the decision making all up to him and decided to let him choose his future alone. Kuhn said his parents were willing to stand behind him regardless of what he picked.

Kuhn called his parents outstanding role models and said he developed his work ethic and competitive nature from them.

“I was brought up in a really hard-working and competitive family,” Kuhn said. “I was always competitive. It didn’t matter if it was being first to the dinner table or playing a game of Monopoly, it was life or death when it came to

stopped worrying about how fast he was running and started focusing on having fun and racing as hard as he could. The results spoke for themselves as he set a new career time in the 800-meter run that was good for second-best in school history.

“Once I got that confidence going, it’s been an uphill climb ever since then,” Kuhn.

But it was more like an uphill sprint through the school record books.

Kuhn’s sophomore indoor season alone consisted of winning the 800-meter three times and winning three 600-meter races as well, including the Big

“I think I was more scared of taking the chance, and that’s why I said no to track for so long because my initial passion was baseball. Then I realized my passion can change, and I realized I would regret it 10 years down the road if I didn’t take this chance.”

Daniel Kuhn, IU junior runner

doing anything.”

IU Coach Ron Helmer said those qualities are what makes Kuhn one of the easiest high-level athletes he’s ever coached.

“He’s driven and he’s extremely competitive,” Helmer said. “He was also fortunate that he is very talented, but talent alone doesn’t always get you to where you want to go.”

Kuhn had the talent and right mindset, but he also still had his fair share of hurdles to overcome.

In his freshman year, Kuhn experienced legitimate track training for the first time in his life, and said he struggled.

During indoor season in the winter, Kuhn said he struggled most. When the spring rolled around and practices and meets moved outdoors, however, things changed.

Kuhn said during outdoors he

Ten Championships. He broke the school record in both events that season.

After his blistering sophomore season, Helmer told Kuhn the hardest part of his collegiate career was out of his way. Kuhn said that fired him up and made him hungry to do more as a junior.

Somehow Kuhn has been able to out-pace his historic season last year with an even better season in 2017. He has proven himself as one of the nation’s best by breaking his owns school records multiple times while also putting up some of the fastest times in the NCAA this season.

“What he does is just go out and race hard every single time,” Helmer said. “He doesn’t ever waste an opportunity to race. Every time it’s his turn to race, all of a sudden everyone is out of the stands and against the rails be-

cause they can’t wait to o watch him perform. m.”

Kuhn hn said he owes a lot of his successs to Helmer, though. h. He said Helmerr always knows the right thing to sayy to someone when they need it.

Kuhn said he considers Helmer lmer to be like a wise grandfather randfather to him, and knows nows that Helmer is always right.

Helmer mer said he fully expects Kuhn to perform well this weekend eekend as the Hoosiers travel avel to Geneva, Ohio, for the Big Ten Championships. Kuhn said he is ready to compete mpete and has the utmost confi onfidence in his team.

“I think hink we have a really good chance, hance,” Kuhn said. “I think we are all going into it thinking king that we are going to try and beat everyone ne who is not in an IU uniform and if you aree wearing one, I’m still ll going to try and beat you.”

Freshman Kyle Mau, freshly crowned Big Ten athlete of the week, shared Kuhn’s confidence in the team and added that they were fortunate to have someone like Kuhn to lead them.

“He’s a leader on and off the track,” Mau said. “He leads by example and is always doing the right things you are supposed to do. When you see him train at 100 percent in every workout, it makes you feel like you can replicate that and do it yourself.”

Mau and Kuhn will most likely run the distance medley relay together for the second straight week, but Helmer said things could still change based off the

races prior to it.

Coach Helmer said the team is at a good place right now and that it’s important they are because Big Ten Championships are difficult to win. The men last won the indoor championships in 2012, but Helmer is confident in IU’s ability to win the title again in 2017.

“It’s a really difficult thing to do,” Helmer said. “Winning it shows a very high level of excellence and that’s what we aspire to be about. We don’t just want to be as good as we can be. We want to be as good as we can be and win.

If we are as good as we can be and not winning, then we need to get better.”

IU women headed east for Big Ten Championship

By Julia Briano jbriano@iu.edu | @julia_bri

The IU women’s track and field team waited all season for the Big Ten Championships, and with the conference title meet set for this weekend, IU Coach Ron Helmer said his team will not shy away from competition.

The team will head to Geneva, Ohio, to compete at the SPIRE Institute on Friday and Saturday. It is IU’s fifth consecutive year competing at the Big Ten Championships. IU has already faced a handful of Big Ten opponents this season, like Michigan and Purdue, but this weekend the Hoosiers will see several other Big Ten teams for the first time.

Helmer said he is not worried about how any of his squad’s opponents are going to perform.

“We aren’t going to worry about the other teams, we have to take care of ourselves,” Helmer said. “We have to make sure that the people we have there are getting the most out of themselves and contributing the most points they can.”

Helmer went on to say the Big

The women’s track and field team competes in the mile in IU’s dual meet against Purdue on Jan. 14, 2017, in the Harry Gladstein Fieldhouse. The women’s track and field team will compete in the Big Ten Championships in Ohio this weekend.

Ten Championship is extremely important to the team, but he isn’t too concerned about placing in a top spot. Simply making it to the conference meet and

improving on past performances is an achievement in and of itself, Helmer said.

“It’s not all or nothing when you are trying to develop and

grow your team, Helmer said.

“Winning is not the only thing that matters.”

IU sent four athletes to the Alex Wilson Invitational in South

Bend, Indiana, last weekend to compete in the distance medley relay in an effort to boost the team’s best time of the season.

Other than that, however, the rest of the Hoosiers had the week off. Helmer said the rest means there should be no excuse not to perform well.

“They are full of energy and in a really good place to compete, everyone should be competing at their best this weekend,” Helmer said. “Everybody we have will be at a place where they have a chance to do something that they have never done before.”

The team must prepare for new challenges after the conference title meet is finished, such as the NCAA Championships and the beginning of the outdoor season in the coming weeks.

“The national meet is what we are looking forward to for some, such as for Katherine Receveur, and for the distance medley team,” Helmer said. “Other than that most of the athletes are already in training mode for the outdoor season so that’s what they are looking forward to for now.”

BASEBALL

Stievert has big shoes to fill to see him pitch and use his whole arsenal against them.”

Stiever’s first start lasted longer than any IU starting pitcher’s day through opening weekend, but it ended with an RBI double in the sixth inning — the deciding run.

After 5.2 innings, Stiever was replaced by sophomore pitcher Pauly Milto, who closed out the remaining 2.1 innings.

Though Stiever got the loss, the Hoosiers stranded nine runners on base, and the sophomore limited the Beavers to one run for the first time since they scored one run against UCLA on May 27, 2016.

The success he saw Friday was thanks in large part to his fastball, Stiever said. He said his main goal was attacking the strikezone with heat and using his other pitches to work around that.

“That’s something as a pitching staff we do pretty well,” Stiever said. “Being able to pitch off the fastball was something that was really effective in that game and will be effective throughout the year.”

One component to the success of the young starter that goes partially unnoticed was sophomore catcher Ryan Fineman. He caught nearly

By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu @TaylorRLehman

People surrounding the IU baseball program had one major concern entering the 2017 season, and it was an issue with the potential to cause some chaos atop the starting pitching rotation.

Someone needed to step up and replace Kyle Hart.

As one of the final remaining pieces of the legacy that was the 2013 College World Series team, Hart brought high-level pitching to the field and charisma off of it as the ace of the pitching staff.

IU Coach Chris Lemonis said it was going to take a lot to replace a player and person like that, but the new ace didn’t need to be just like Hart.

Lemonis ultimately settled on sophomore Jonathan Stiever, a tall, quiet pitcher who had never before started a game for the Hoosiers. The new Friday starter faced No. 5 Oregon State in the first game of the season Feb. 17.

Stiever took the defeat in a 1-0 loss, but he surrendered just one earned run and three hits.

“He was really good, sharp,” Lemonis said. “He pitched like a veteran out there, just really hit a lot of spots. Their offense can do a lot of things, so it was nice

Then-freshman right-handed pitcher Jonathan Stiever throws to a Ball State hitter in April 2016 at Bart Kaufman field. Stiever has replaced Kyle Hart as IU’s ace in 2017.

IU follows up its seasonopening 2-2 performance in Arizona with a trip to the Sunshine State, as it will play three games in as many days against Florida Atlantic in Boca Raton, Florida.

Sophomore pitcher Jonathan Stiever allowed just one run on three hits over 5.2 innings pitched in his 2017 debut against the No. 7 Oregon State Beavers. The righty is the Hoosiers’ Friday starter and will be on the mound for the first matchup against Florida Atlantic.

IU Coach Chris Lemonis said he was impressed by the way Stiever pitched like a veteran against Oregon State’s talented offense.

Lemonis said Stiever was able to use his entire arsenal of pitches in an effective manner against the Beavers.

Stiever lauded sophomore catcher Ryan Fineman for playing an extremely important role for the inexperienced starting pitching rotation, which is led by three underclassmen.

“We’re pretty confident,

IU (2-2) at Florida Atlantic (3-0) Friday-Sunday, Florida we are young, but I don’t think talent is really lacking as a staff,” Stiever said, referring to IU’s starters. “Ryan helps a lot — probably more than anybody is able to notice from the stands. Getting different pitches and understanding where you are mechanically.

You can’t really put into perspective how valuable he is back there.”

Lemonis said he hopes to get similar production out of his catcher position against Florida Atlantic as he got last weekend. In Arizona, Fineman, who the Hoosier coach believes is one of the best catchers in the country, displayed his hitting and fielding talent, and freshman Jake Matheny embraced the spotlight by hitting two home runs in his first game. Matheny went on to be named Big Ten Freshman of the Week.

IU looking to ride momentum from double-overtime win

By Jake Thomer jjthomer@indiana.edu @jake_the_thomer

After a double-overtime victory inside Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall on Senior Day, IU women’s basketball will hit the road and look to avoid a letdown in its final regular-season game.

When IU visits Illinois for a 1 p.m. tipoff Saturday, the Hoosiers hope to avoid the result they suffered in their last road game.

A loss to last-place Nebraska last Sunday temporarily put a damper on IU’s NCAA Tournament hopes, but the thrilling victory against Iowa on Wednesday has the Hoosiers at 9-6 in the Big Ten and fully confident in their abilities to finish the season strong.

“We know what we’re fighting for,” senior guard Karlee McBride said after Wednesday’s win. “It is

mental, but then again we just have to go out there and do what we know, play how we play and play for each other.”

McBride has led an uptick in IU’s production from the 3-point line recently by making 11 of 25 from deep in her past four games. Against Iowa, IU made 11 shots from beyond the arc as a team. Illinois has just a 30.3 percent mark from 3 as a team, so winning the shooting battle could be key to IU winning the game.

IU forced 19 turnovers Wednesday. That effort was good enough to push the Hoosiers into first place in the Big Ten in turnover margin with an average of plus 3.8 turnovers per game. IU ran a mix of zone and man defense against Iowa, which was not a departure from Moren’s season-long trend of being willing to switch defensive looks within each game.

“I thought our zone to-

night was good to us for a time,” Moren said after beating Iowa. “But then down the stretch we felt like we had to go back to man.”

Senior forward Jenn Anderson made a season-high 10 field goals Wednesday and raised her season scoring average to 9.3 points per game. Defensively, she will be tasked with Illinois sophomore forward and leading scorer Alex Witting, who does the bulk of her damage down low.

Witting averages 14.9 points and 8.8 rebounds per game, but her 6-foot-1 frame could provide the 6-foot-3 Anderson with an advantageous matchup when IU has the ball. Illinois has no one listed taller than 6-foot-2 on its roster, so expect Moren to emphasize feeding the ball to the post.

Purdue and Michigan State, along with IU, have six Big Ten losses and are battling

IU (19-9) at Illinois (8-20) 1 p.m. Saturday, Illinois for the coveted fourth spot in the conference standings that would ensure a double bye through the first two rounds of next week’s Big Ten Tournament that will be played in Indianapolis.

A win for IU against Illinois would guarantee at least a fifth-place finish in the conference, and Moren isn’t worried about needing other teams to lose.

Moren said her squad’s resilience, both throughout the season and in the marathon victory over Iowa, shows what the Hoosiers are capable of.

“Although we’ve had some peaks and valleys, we’re one win away from having a 20win season,” Moren said. “I BOBBY GODDIN | IDS don’t know that there are Senior guard Alexis Gassion attempts a shot against Iowa on many coaches out there that Wednesday in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.

Theater students Art Alliance meets discuss jobs, careers in annual event

By Rachel Leffers rleffers@indiana.edu | @rachelleffers

Though some students may pursue a degree because of its economic potential, others say their passions outweigh the lack of job security in their particular field.

When a student’s love for their career choice outweighs their fear of failure, they may be willing to take whatever risk is necessary to pursue that career, said Dominic Pagliaro, a freshman pursuing a BFA in musical theater.

In order to pursue their passion for acting and their dreams of Broadway, theater majors in IU’s Department of Theatre and Drama must endure potential lack of job security upon graduation.

“Ideally, I would still like to make it on Broadway,” Pagliaro said. “I’m sure that’s the goal of everyone in the musical theater department.”

Although most of his family found interests in sports and engineering, Pagliaro said he found himself leaning toward the arts when he was in high school.

When he had to make the decision between sports and theater, Pagliaro said he chose theater because it was something he always looked forward to.

“I was that one kid who kinda always found myself through the arts,” he said.

Although Pagliaro said he still aspires to make it on Broadway, it’s no longer the goal he prioritizes.

He said his love for acting is what really matters to him, so, regardless of where he is and how much he is making, Pagliaro just wants to act.

“I would really be satisfied with doing any kind of on-stage, film, TV work,” Pagliaro said. “As long as I get to act and make a living from it, even though that’s basically all you make.”

Sophia Garofoli, a senior working toward her BFA in theater, said she can’t stress the importance of arts both in education and within the community enough.

Garofoli said she has been acting for 15 years and can’t imagine her life without it.

“It gets me through the bad days and makes the good days better,” she said.

One benefit of being a theater major is the students have formed a close community within their department, Garofoli said.

In most classes, students sit in chairs while listening to lectures, but theater students get to interact with one another when they perform scene work.

“We’re so close,” Garofoli said, “I think it’s because we see each other in emotionally vulnerable states, when we’re doing scene work and in rehearsals.”

Pagliaro said theater is

different than other careers because each actor comes from a different background with different experiences, which they use to perform.

Actors tend to have outgoing personalities, which helps the students unite despite their differences, he said.

Although theater students are constantly in competition with one another because they audition for many of the same roles, the close-knit community ensures the competitive nature of the major does not create animosity between students, Garofoli said.

After her graduation this spring Garofoli said she is moving to New York City to pursue her acting career. Although there’s no certainty theater students will be hired right after graduation, Garofoli said that is a risk they must be willing to take.

Although Garofoli and Pagliaro said they realize their major is not as typical as a science-, math- or English-related major, they do it because it’s what they love.

They both said they believe the arts are an important sector in every community because of the positive effect they have on society.

“You need to have people who have all different abilities in order to create a comprehensive, well-rounded society,” Pagliaro said. “I think the arts are something that all people need in some way, shape or form.”

Life inspires art in new Grunwald exhibition

By Kaleigh Howland kbhowlan@umail.iu.edu @kaleighbleu

Feminism, queer culture and being a twin inspired different student artists to create self-reflective art for the latest exhibit at the Grunwald Gallery.

Contemporary art by students from the BFA Studio Art program will be featured in the Grunwald Gallery through March 9. The exhibition is open from noon to 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays. There will be an opening reception 6 to 8 p.m.

Friday in the gallery.

The free exhibition features work from all disciplines in the BFA program, a four-semester degree through the College of Arts and Sciences offering graphic design, textiles, photography, sculpture focuses and more.

Nick Little, a senior BFA in photography, presented a portrait series mapping the progression of twins moving toward separation. Little said this series is a way to explore the intangible connection between himself and his twin, Quinn Little.

The portraits help him

deal with his fear of growing up and being away from somebody he’s always been connected to, he said.

The portraits feature fraternal twins impacting the other’s physical form, until in the last photo the contact is merely a shadow, a “reference to touch.”

“I want people to understand how important this connection is to a twin,” Little said. “It is almost the defining factor to how you’ve grown up.”

BFA textiles senior Hannah Hadley’s artwork celebrates her own form of connection. Queer culture and aesthetic inspire her work.

She has three pieces on display, her favorite of which is entitled “Aye, and Gomorrah.” Each is made of fabrics that invoke, somewhat unintentionally, a pizza.

“It’s such a common thing, but it bonds people together,” she said.

The allusion to pizza was not her original intent, but it coincides with the queer culture of celebrating identity in her piece “Eat like a Queen.”

Isabelle Conrad, a junior BFA graphic design student, drew from her desire to empower women for her print

entitled “Don’t Touch Me." The print features a prickly cactus with a banner reading “Don’t touch me,” surrounded by feminine objects.

To Conrad, the bows, rolling pins and irons represent the expectations of womanhood.

“I tried to make a commentary on what is on the outside and who we actually are,” she said.

The piece can be interpreted based on the viewer’s experiences, she said.

She reflected herself in the print: she doesn’t like to be touched, and she is owning that.

This piece, one of three Conrad has displayed, focuses on a message of empowerment, whereas the other two focused on aesthetic.

Conrad also displayed a cookbook and packaging for a fictitious restaurant created for a graphic design course.

“There’s art behind things we don’t necessarily always think there is,” Conrad said.

The artists’ work is laborintensive and takes time to fine tune. These BFA students encourage non-art students to attend this free exhibition.

“I think it’s important to see what students are making,” Conrad said.

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Halima Aden wears a burkini while competing in the preliminary bathing suit round of the Miss Minnesota USA pageant on Nov. 26, 2016, in Burnsville, Minnesota.

Milan fashion week debuts collections from Gucci, Fendi, Max Mara Italian designers kicked off fashion week Thursday in Milan, with Max Mara, Fendi and Gucci being the first to showcase their designs.

Gucci’s fall 2017 readyto-wear collection was sure to surprise the audience.

In an interview with Vogue magazine, Gucci designer Alessandro Michele said, “I’m trying to follow my rules, not fashion rules.”

That is exactly what Michele did with his extensive collection, which had 120 different looks. He also mixed in men’s looks with women’s and noted it makes it easier for him to focus when both sexes are considered together.

“This is always my world,” he told Vogue. “I want to swim in my ocean.”

Some standout points were the butterflies, loads of glitter and a curved bar nose ring that most women models wore.

So what could have Michele been inspired by when creating this collection? According to Women’s Wear Daily, a fashion-trend journal, he is creating his own signature — all eccentricity, gentleness and highly decorated clothes and accessories.

Vogue also cites the formal gardens of Italian and English country houses,

Renaissance paintings and Michele’s friend Jared Leto as inspirations and obsessions for the designer.

The front row at the Gucci show was packed with A-listers such as Leto, Selma Hayek, Tom Hiddleston, Alexa Chung and A$AP Rocky.

Next up, Fendi wowed its audience with its starpacked model lineup. The lineup included it girls and Victoria’s Secret Angels Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Stella Maxwell and Romee Strijd.

Karl Lagerfeld, designer of not only Chanel but also Fendi, and accessories designer Silvia Venturini Fendi incorporated a statement hot-sauce red boot with every look. Vogue is calling this the ‘color of the season.’ According to Popsugar, a popular women’s publication, Lagerfeld and Fendi traced their inspiration roots back to 1925 — the birth of the fashion house.

These red-hot boots come in all lengths and finishes, from thigh-high to ankle, to shiny to muted velvet, we will for sure be seeing many of these boots on red carpets around the world soon.

The collection was adorned with Fendi’s very recognizable brand logo, two harshly interlocking Fs. The

logo appeared in the center of hoop earrings and on the titled flaps of structured satchels, Popsugar notes.

Lastly, Max Mara’s fall 2017 ready-to-wear collection stayed true to the women who depend on heavy tailoring to get them through their days, Vogue said.

The show featured a model who has transmitted some political conversation with her appearance in the designer’s show.

Halima Aden is a 19-yearold Somali-American from Minnesota who shocked the country when she donned a hijab in her state’s selection round for the Miss USA competition.

Besides the political statement Mara made surrounding the importance of inclusiveness and a cultural religious level at the forefront of the current fashion world, the collection included pieces ranging in color from blood-red to its classic camel-colored garments.

Milan Fashion Week continues until Feb. 28 before Paris designers take to the streets to show the fashion world what they have created this season. sbunes@indiana.edu

EDITORIAL BOARD

Hear the other side for a change “Birds of a feather flock together.” Although this classic proverb dates back to the 16th century, the concept of homophily — like attracts like — is more relevant today than ever.

It’s well known in social sciences that people tend to interact with individuals who share similar characteristics. This pull acts as a filter, creating homogeneous social networks with little to no differing opinions.

On the other end of the spectrum, cognitive dissonance causes the uncomfortable feeling that people experience when one or more individuals disagree with their belief structure.

The solution to feeling challenged is intuitive — seek out like-minded sources of information in order to avoid discrepancy.

We do this every day without blinking an eye, whether it be unfollowing someone on Twitter whose sentiments clash with your own or ignoring your professor’s nonsensical ramblings about the latest Donald Trump fiasco.

Surprise, it’s not just those in your social network that are reinforcing your own ideology. Yes, I am talking about the media.

In the Media School, we are taught buzzwords like “objectivity” and “autonomy,” both of which are competing professional norms of journalism, yet the amount of news stories that remain objective in the purest sense seems slim.

Every time a journalist sits down in front of a computer to write an article, they’re faced with an important task: framing. There’s a lexicon of meanings devoted to this word, but in layman’s terms, it simply means the different angles in which the media can report a certain story.

Sometimes framing happens in a journalist’s subconscious. They follow a natural arc by focusing on the most important aspects of a storyline. Even then, defining what’s most important can get tricky.

There’s an endless array of frames in which stories can take hold —conflict frames, human interest

frames, economic frames, morality frames, responsibility frames, etc.

Each one of these frames can change or reinforce people’s underlying thoughts about a particular subject.

Sadly, because we’re seeing a broadening media landscape, money-driven coverage is becoming more and more prevalent due to market pressures.

Not only are journalists tempted to report on things that people want to hear about instead of what’s actually happening, they’re framing content in a way that is outwardly appealing to their target audience. Just look at all the clickbait on Facebook.

IU political scientists Lars Willnat and David H. Weaver conducted a 2014 study called “The American Journalist in the Digital Age.” Although they found that most journalists identify themselves as independents, liberals outnumber conservatives four to one.

While many claim that this overwhelming liberal lean is synonymous with toxic waste, I believe the problem exists deeper than our exterior labels.

We consume news that is relevant to us — a cookiecutter conglomeration of articles that conform to our interests and beliefs.

Our ability to craft a carefully curated list of sites and authors we deem credible has increased in recent years not only because the media has expanded but also because of the introduction of social sites that permutate our news for our own self interests.

Breaking this cozy filter bubble, as Quartz’s Elisabeth Ponsot puts it, is easier said than done. Unfortunately, the key to popping it might not be what you want to hear.

It’s time to exit the echo chamber by introducing new perspectives and voices into our overly personalized news networks. Looking across the aisle shouldn’t be limited to suit-clad Congressmen who drink overpriced coffee. jlkarl@umail.iu.edu

Charity app shakes things up The Peace Corps is not a fan of new application DonorSee A new app could revolutionize the future of humanitarian funding.

DonorSee is a crowdfunding platform start-up looking to provide a direct donation service where individuals can give to global aid workers. The platform would disregard the traditional practice of fundraising money funneling through well-established international aid organizations with plenty of oversight. Instead, people would directly donate money to people without organizational supervision. Though the Editorial Board admires the spirit of this app, we believe it is risky to give away money without knowing where it’s going.

The Peace Corps, an international aid organization, has banned its volunteers from raising money via DonorSee. The decision excluded about 7,000 potential fundraising volunteers.

Before any potential project could get off the ground, Peace Corps headquarters was quick to cut itself off from DonorSee. A partnership would be incompatible with traditional funding policies, according to a Peace Corps statement.

Peace Corps volunteers are only allowed to fund projects via the Peace Corps Partnership Program. External sources of funding such as those through online websites or platforms may not be solicited or accepted.

DonorSee immediately retaliated against the ban, arguing that components of the platform would serve as accountability benefits to the Peace Corps’ slow bureaucratic system.

There are reasons for the Peace Corps to be exceedingly cautious even when taking into account the ingenuity of DonorSee. The Peace Corps is a 55-year-old tried-andtrue organization that has

earned its reputation for accountable funding. Earned accountability isn’t anything an organization, governmental or non-governmental, will be quick to sacrifice partnerships. The required management for overseeing volunteer funding each year is frankly unrealistic.

However, in the natural evolution of previous collective efforts in humanitarianlike projects on general platforms to an exclusively international-aid funding platform such as DonorSee, the Peace Corps didn’t necessarily make the optimal decision to ensure the most amount of funding to the most amount of projects. Heartwarming stories of GoFundMe and Kickstarter projects motivated by humanitarian efforts show that a crowdfunding platform would bring copious financial resources for international projects. A lot of people are ready to lend just a few dollars.

This seems to be the primary reason Gret Glyer, founder of DonorSee, had to create the platform, especially after seeing the inefficacy of big international aid organizations while teaching math in Malawi.

“I saw the potential of what can happen if people circumvent the traditional way of getting funding to people,” he told Technically, a technology news outlet based in Washington, D.C. Time may tell whether Peace Corps was right. A consensus between the organization and the platform may only be reached once all concerns of funding accountability have passed through the bureaucratic system or may come naturally once government programs further integrate new technology for effective work.

This technology shows promise, but people ultimately need to know where their charity money is going.

COFFEE CHRONICLES

IU should discontinue required meal plans I haven’t had a meal plan since freshman year. That’s for two reasons: the exorbitant price and the lack of options for people with alternate diets. As a vegetarian with fairly serious food allergies, when I ate in the dining halls it was a system of daily repetition. I would eat the same thing every day. My choices were a veggie burger, one sandwich, one of the pizzas, etc.

The options were seriously limited, and I could not justify paying so much for a standard plan if I could barely eat at any of the locations. IU needs to allow students to opt out of having a meal plan or increase their options for students with allergies or alternate diets.

The cost of a standard meal plan is $3,300 per year.

While this is not much compared to the cost of living in a residence hall, it is a huge amount of money for most students. And while the meal plans have diversified recently to include more healthy eating options, there still are not a lot of options for students who had alternate diets.

Being vegetarian was a choice for me, and that means that I choose to have more difficulties in funding food. This is not the case for people with food allergies.

One of my friends had celiac disease and could buy almost nothing in the dining hall for fear of gluten crosscontamination. While you can make appointments with the campus nutritionists, they will tell you what you can eat, and the options

are not going to be vast.

There are two ways to resolve this situation. Students with specific diet plans or food allergies should be allowed to opt out of the University meal plans, even as freshmen, or IU needs to work in order to make more alternate dietfriendly foods available.

While this would decrease the money that Residential Programs and Services gains, it would also prevent students from paying for a resource they do not need.

For me, it was a waste to have a meal plan because the food that I could buy barely affected my number of meal points. I would have preferred having a smaller meal plan just so all this money that I paid was used for something else.

The dining halls are convenient and for the majority of freshmen, they offer a large number of options.

However, for a growing segment of IU students, meal plans are costly and ineffective.

By not having more options for these students and also not allowing them to opt out of the required meal plan, the school is just costing these students money that will never be used. This is a burden for them, and will end up costing these students more as they have to not only pay for the meal plan but their own food on top of it. npatwari@umail.iu.edu

MOORE TO SAY

Black Guns Matter movement empowers civilians If there’s one thing that can polarize a room full of people, it’s gun ownership.

Currently voting habits show that white, middle America is in more favor of an armed population, while people who live in cities generally don’t want more guns in civilian hands, according to a Pew Research Center study.

Maj Toure, a 29-yearold black artist and activist from Philadelphia, wants to change this. He started the Black Guns Matter movement, and it’s a stroke of genius.

Black Guns Matter has events in cities all across the country to educate people in urban areas about carry laws and how to deal with law enforcement as a legally carrying citizen. Toure believes legally arming good people in the city will deter crime, empower the black community and reduce the

public’s fear of gun ownership. In an interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer, Toure said, “The stigma, especially in an urban environment like Philly, is if you have a gun, you’re either law enforcement or the bad guy.”

He goes on to explain his desire to teach people that they can be a good guy, someone who owns a gun for the purpose of personal protection, if they are wellinformed and responsible with their firearm.

In an NPR interview, Toure talks about being a 15-year-old on the streets of Philadelphia and carrying a gun he didn’t know how to use and didn’t respect. Looking back, he realizes how dangerous and potentially fatal it was to carry around a weapon with no training or legal rights to own it.

According to the Brookings Institution, the

leading cause of gun deaths nationwide is suicide, but gun deaths in the black community are homicides 82 percent of the time. On top of this, only 19 percent of black households own guns, while 41 percent of white households do so.

Disarming the good people in cities who just want to protect themselves and their families won’t solve any problems. In fact, it will only let people who obtain guns illegally further terrorize their neighborhoods, as the average civilian won’t be able to defend himself. It has to stop.

In 2001, there were 84 guns legally owned in America for every 100 people. Now it’s increased to 88 guns per 100 people, yet we have the lowest rate of gun murders since at least 1981.

It’s time for us to rethink how we deal with gun

Dylan Moore is a sophomore in business and English.

violence in inner cities. Let’s look at Chicago. Compared to Indiana, Illinois makes it much more difficult for people to legally obtain weapons. For this reason, criminals are incentivized to travel elsewhere, buy a gun and come back to Chicago without registering it. This is illegal, so law-abiding people won’t do it and therefore can’t arm themselves nearly as easily as criminals.

We can’t solve problems with inner city gun violence if we only arm the people who intend to do harm. The Black Guns Matter movement is spreading an important message to black Americans: you have Second Amendment rights too. Fight for them. dylmoore@umail.iu.edu

WOMEN’S TENNIS

IU looks to end slide with two weekend matches at home singles player,” Gutierrez said. “It’s nothing new to us. We are just going to play through the elements and adversity like we have been.”

IU will welcome DePaul and IUPUI to the Varsity Tennis Center this Saturday in hopes of ending their three-match losing streak.

IU Coach Ramiro Azcui said DePaul will be the tougher of the two. The Blue Demons have played two Big Ten teams so far this season and are 1-1 through a loss to Minnesota and win to Purdue.

“It’s a very dangerous team,” Azcui said. “I think we are actually the underdog going into this match, but we are looking forward to the challenge.”

The Hoosiers are 5-5 on the season and lately have been working on trying to handle big hitting teams in practice.

After beating two ranked teams this past weekend and getting ranked the No. 19 team in the country, senior Kim Schmider and sophomore Madison Appel will not play together this Saturday.

The night of their big win against No. 1-ranked Kentucky, Schmider became ill and has not been able to practice since, which has set the Hoosiers up for their 11th consecutive match without a full lineup.

Illnesses and injuries have plagued IU all season, and senior Paula Gutierrez said at this point the team is just used to playing shorthanded.

“Not having Kim is going to be hard because she’s such a great doubles and

Gutierrez said she thinks the team is more consistent than DePaul, and the Blue Demons are very aggressive, so the team will have to be patient.

IU has two weeks remaining until Big Ten season begins. Azcui said he plans to use these next two weeks as a miniature season to get his team prepared for conference play.

MEN’S TENNIS

IU seeks to get back on track

By Juan Alvarado jdalvara@umail.iu.edu @jdsports14

IU Coach Jeremy Wurtzman said his team is not concerned about the toll that travel may take on its upcoming trip to Seattle. In fact, he said IU is excited about the opportunity.

IU defeated Dartmouth 6-1 in New Hampshire in its last match that involved heavy travel, and this weekend it will seek to repeat a positive result.

No. 45 IU will face No. 32 Washington on Sunday in the Hoosiers’ first matchup while ranked among the top50 this season. The Hoosiers will also seek to get their first win against a higher-ranked team.

“I think it is a whole new experience in college tennis,”

Wurtzman said of the road game in the Pacific Northwest. “We really have had success, two years ago when we went to Washington, and we look to hopefully do that again.”

Although the 7-4 Hoosiers have not been able to win a match since Feb. 8, the Intercollegiate Tennis Association still ranked them among the best teams in the country Tuesday when it released the latest top 50 rankings.

Sophomore and 125thranked singles player Antonio Cembellin said in order to win Sunday, IU will need to keep the intensity and consistency that have been key for the Hoosiers this season.

“It is a trip we are totally looking forward to,” Wurtzman said. “We get to go to a totally different part of the country.”

Women’s golfers set to start season lucasry@indiana.edu | @RyanLucasIU

The IU women’s golf team hasn’t played a competitive round since October, but that doesn’t mean the Hoosiers will be rusty this weekend when they return to action.

The team’s two training trips to Arizona in the past month have it ready to go for the Westbrook Spring Invitational at Westbrook Village Golf Club in Peoria, Arizona.

The first two rounds will be played Sunday, and the final round is Monday.

The tournament will have a field of 13 teams, including Big Ten foes Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Ohio State and tournament host Wisconsin. The Hoosiers finished 12th of 15 teams at the same tournament last season.

With both the training trips and unusually warm weather allowing the

Hoosiers to play plenty of golf before their first tournament, IU Coach Clint Wallman said he thinks the team is in a good position to go out and compete.

“We are developmentally much further along at this point of the year than we have been in years past,” Wallman said. “Overall I feel very good. We’ve got easily triple the amount of rounds that we’ve ever had entering our first event of the year.”

Wallman said the team is closer to being in game shape before the first tournament than it has been in years past and the players have been tweaking smaller parts of their games instead of trying to knock the rust off from a long break.

Senior Ana Sanjuan said the extra practice has her feeling relaxed and prepared for the tournament ahead.

“I worked a lot on my

swing this past month so now I’m very confident with it,” Sanjuan said. “With my putting too, I made so many putts in practice so it gives me a lot of confidence for the tournaments.”

Illnesses plagued the team during the fall, with sophomore Erin Harper missing multiple tournaments.

The Hoosiers will have to play another tournament without one of their top players because junior Alix Kong will not travel with the team due to health issues. Kong was second on the team with a fall average score of 73.45 per round.

Wallman said the Hoosiers are familiar with the Westbrook course from past years and said he thinks the Hoosiers have the opportunity to shoot low scores this weekend.

“It’s a course definitely

that you can score on but you have to be converting when you get down to the red zone, you just have to make the putts,” Wallman said. “It’s definitely going to reward good iron play. If you get the ball in good proximity, you can shoot some numbers out here.”

Harper finished tied for third place among individuals at the Westbrook Spring Invitational last season as she led the Hoosiers with a 4-under-par 212 over three rounds.

In order to shoot those low scores, Wallman said the team focused on putting and iron play in the week before the tournament.

The Hoosiers are leaving for the tournament a day early to play a practice round Friday at Longbow Golf Club, the site of their second tournament of the season, the Clover Cup.

with its good arms.

“John McCormack is a really good head coach and they’ve got it going on down there,” Lemonis said. “We purposely put together a schedule that would test us with all regional teams and some of the better teams in the country.”

Lemonis said sophomore utility player Luke Miller, who will spend more permanent time at third base this year, will see more action this weekend.

Miller only appeared once, as a pinch hitter, in the Hoosiers’ first four games of the season due to a day-to-day injury.

The third-year head coach has placed an emphasis on base stealing this season and includes a training exercise every practice.

The work paid off in the team’s opening slate of games as the Hoosiers stole five bags on six attempts, with junior outfielder Laren Eustace providing four of

those swipes.

Contrarily, Fineman and Matheny have thrown out three of four opposing runners attempting to steal.

“I think it really plays well with my style of play, and I think this year we are going to try and run a lot more and be a little more aggressive the past few years,” Eustace said.

“We’ve been working on it a lot in practice and have gotten a lot better in that aspect too.”

Despite traveling to temperate climates like Arizona and Florida, Lemonis said he would prefer to be playing in Bloomington, which has been uncharacteristically warm as of late.

“It’s bad scheduling, today I wish we were playing here,” Lemonis said. “We talk about it all the time and it’s part of being an Indiana athlete. We got home late Monday night and they were in class at 8 a.m. on Tuesday and we practiced a little bit yesterday. It makes it a little tougher, but also makes our guys a little bit tougher and we try to embrace that.”

“We have seven juniors and a lot of leaders that have experience,” Castle said.

Fineman led Stiever through all 5.2 innings and gunned down one of the five baserunners the sophomore allowed.

“Ryan helps a lot, probably more than anyone is able to notice from the stands,” Stiever said. “Just getting a pitcher to understand where you are mechanically. You can’t really put into perspective how valuable he is back there.”

In Oregon State’s other two games against Duke, they combined for 17 runs.

Lemonis said he liked the way the pitching staff worked against a volatile Oregon State offense.

The coach scheduled difficult opponents at the beginning of the season to see how his team would handle tough offenses and strong pitching, he said. Stiever and the rotation passed the first test.

At the end of the weekend, Lemonis called his starters a bright spot.

“We talked about a young pitching staff but we knew they were young and talented,” Lemonis said. “They got out there and they showed that.”
