IU Coach Todd Yeagley earns 100th career victory as head coach By Michael Ramirez michrami@umail.iu.edu | @michrami
IU men's soccer Coach Todd Yeagley recorded his 100th career win on Tuesday night in a 4-0 victory against Evansville. “It’s special," Yeagley said. "Growing up in a household where a winning culture is very strong, I’ve known a lot of people who have known how to win. I’m just the fortunate one to be the head coach of this team. The staff and the players are the true reason of why I’ve reached this milestone.” Yeagley, who has been a collegiate head coach for more than eight seasons, was named IU head coach in December 2009
after a brief stint as the head coach of Wisconsin. IU has made an appearance in the NCAA Tournament every season since he’s been at the helm. IU has won one Big Ten Regular Season Championship and one Big Ten Tournament Championship under Yeagley’s guidance. In his time at IU, Yeagley has produced 11 Major League Soccer draft picks, 29 All-Big Ten honorees and three Big Ten Player of the Year selections. He is also a member of the Indiana Soccer Hall of Fame, the Monroe County Hall of Fame and the IU SEE YEAGLEY, PAGE 5
Yeagley’s time at IU by the numbers
An orange sign with the words “Abortion victim photos ahead” in bold black lettering was displayed Wednesday at the corner of 10th Street and Fee Lane, in front of the entrance to the Arboretum. Beside the sign were six posters of bloody fetuses. One showed a fetus in its first trimester. Another had one lying on a metal plate beside a pair of surgical scissors. Members of Students for Life, a pro-life organization at IU, stood beside the signs with handouts that read “Abortion is ageism.” Two IU police officers watched to ensure the protest stayed civil. About five feet behind the signs were two women in pink Planned Parenthood T-shirts. “Would you like to support Planned Parenthood?” they asked passerbys while holding clipboards for people to sign in support. Students for Life worked with the Created Equal campaign to protest abortion at IU as part of 40 Days for Life, a national annual campaign against abortion that runs from Sept. 27 to Nov. 5. Planned Parenthood representatives responded to the Wednesday protest by showing up to advocate for the organization. On her way to class, IU junior SEE ABORTION, PAGE 5

October brings art studios tour By Adele Poudrier apoudrie@umail.iu.edu | @adelepoudrier
Homemade brooms, stone carvings and much more art can be found along the Back Roads of Brown County Studio Tour. The tour is free and allows any person to follow a map through Brown County, Indiana, that marks 17 working art studios displaying the work of 27 artists. It opened Oct. 1 and will run until the end of the month. The map can be found online or at the Bloomington visitor center. The tour is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., with any exceptions noted on the map. The tour has taken place every October for nearly 20 years, according to a press release from the Back Roads of Brown County Studio Tour. Media chair and artist participant Michele Pollack said that beyond the many active studios on the tour, one of the stops includes the historic studio and home of T.C. Steele, one of the first artists to move to Brown County for its scenery. However, the tour is more than informational; it's interactive, Pollack said. "They can look, they can shop and all of us do demonstrations," Pollack said. "So I invite people into the studio, and I show them how I create the work I create. You get a lot of one-on-one time with the artist. So if you're interested in that, you could talk to them about their work, where they live and how they built their studios." Artist Monique Cagl has been on the tour for more than five years with various types of artwork from crochet to paintings. She said that the tour gives customers an opportunity to have a more intimate

experience. "I think people really like that experience of coming out to a studio and seeing where the artist lives and works," Cagle said. "So it's partly about sharing my artwork, and it's partly about involving people in the process of making art. So it's more of an experience for them rather than just going to a gallery and observing it there." Besides customers getting the opportunity to see the artists' studios, the engagement artists take away from the tour is extremely valuable, Pollack said. "I can say, as an artist, I think it's
crucial for me to get that interaction with customers," Pollack said. "I learn what they're interested in. I learn how to explain what I do to people." The type of artwork that can be seen on the tour as well as the price point varies greatly, Pollack said. Jewelry, weaving, calligraphy, mosaics and limestone carvings are just a few of the art forms in the tour. Pollack referenced her own work of stitched paper art and hand-bound books as an example of how widely prices vary. Pollack said she has pieces for sale that start
at $6.50 and go as high as $1,000. While the tour gives residents of Brown County and neighboring areas the chance to shop locally, Cagle said the perks of this annual tour applies beyond the individual and to the Brown County art community as a whole. "There's a whole collection of artists here in Brown County, and we've kind of built up friendships and relationships with each other so that we work together to help promote the arts as a whole in Brown County, rather than just promoting our own individual arts," Cagle said.
IU faculty and staff employees received an email Sept. 20 announcing a change to the payroll, a change some find concerning. The switch will cause some employees to have additional taxes and could cause them to receive a smaller tax refund in 2019, said Howard Swyers, Fiscal Officer at the Department of Economics at IU. Pay for December 2018 will be distributed on the last business day of the year rather than on the first business day in 2019, meaning employees will receive 13 paychecks for the 2018 calendar year rather than 12. This paycheck format will only happen in 2018. In 2019 and afterward, faculty and staff employees will receive 12 paychecks a year. "Multiply these numbers by the thousands of IU employees affected, and the number reaches in the millions of dollars,” Swyers said. Employees' salaries won't change; only the the timing of the payment will change, according to the IU payroll website. For example, employees who normally earn a salary of $50,000 a year would earn $55,000 in 2018 because of this change, Swyers said. The change would force them to pay 22 percent more in taxes. This could be equivalent to an additional house payment and car payment for employees, Swyers said. He said he was concerned for those who have large families or live from paycheck to paycheck. “Suddenly, they’re taking money out that you don’t have, and that hurts,” Swyers said. The email also said the payroll group wants a smooth transition. “While we are confident this change serves the best interest of our employees and the university, we realize that it will raise questions and will require adjustments to payroll, taxes, and benefit deductions,” director of payroll Stephen Miller wrote in the email. This change will affect only SEE PAYROLL, PAGE 5
