Amber Alert remains in effect From IDS reports

An Amber Alert continues across the state for a missing Indianapolis child. Aaron and Emma Blackwell were abducted around 3 a.m. Monday from 1215 Lasalle St. in Indianapolis. Michigan State Police Lt. Michael Shaw said 16-year-old Aaron was found in Michigan, but the search for Emma is ongoing. Because the siblings crossed state lines, the case is now being led by the FBI, Lt. Shaw said. Emma is 13 years old, 5-foot5, 150 pounds, has black hair and brown eyes and was last known to be wearing pink and white pajamas. The children were reported to have been forcibly abducted at gun-point by armed suspects and were believed to be in extreme danger, according to a release from the State. Police ask that anyone with information call 1-888-58AMBER. Ike Hajinazarian Continued coverage IDS reporter Ike Hajinazarian is in Indianapolis today.

Iowa might have the strangest NCAA Tournament résumé in the Big Ten. The Hawkeyes have a road win against North Carolina, blew out Maryland at home and swept the season series against Ohio State. They’ve won their last four Big Ten games in a row by an average margin of 18.5 points per game, but those immediately followed losses to Minnesota and Northwestern.

The Hoosiers and Hawkeyes will meet 7 p.m. today at Assembly Hall with postseason implications firmly on the line. “They’re outstanding everywhere,” IU Coach Tom Crean said of Iowa. “I think Fran (McCaffery) has done an outstanding job with that team because they just keep getting better.” One of the challenges that stood out the most to Crean when dissecting Iowa was its speed, despite its height. McCaffery typically starts three frontcourt players who stand 6-foot-9 or taller and a shooting guard that is at least 6-foot-5.

A line of students stretched toward the Charleston Market in the Indiana Memorial Union Food Court at lunchtime Monday. For the day, the Market was transformed into a station for traditional Spanish cuisine. The man behind the grill, Chef Jose Miguel Exposito, committed his gaze to the dish in front of him. He prepared each student’s order one by one with precision. Chris Gray, director of IMU Dining Services, said the chef handled the majority of the preparation himself with his incomparable diligence and organization. Chef Exposito is featured at the IMU on Monday and Tuesday as part of Sodexo’s Global Chef

Program. Gray said IMU dining is fortunate to be a part of a global company, Sodexo, with chefs from across the world to share their talents and culture. “It’ll be really fun to see the culture of his food and get to share it with students,” he said. “I think it’s a great opportunity for people to see something and taste something that’s authentically prepared.” Three dishes were featured on the menu: Pollo en Pepitoria, Magro con Tomate and Tortilla de Patatas. Pollo en Pepitoria is a roasted chicken drizzled with almond sauce and served with potatoes. Magro con Tomate is a Catalan pork with tomato and served with rice. Tortilla is a common Span-

ish dish similar to an omelet, served as a wedge of fried egg and potatoes. Gray said tortilla is as traditional in Spanish culture as a hamburger is in American culture. He said all of the options provided a sampling of traditional flavors without many surprising spices or flavors. “It’s pretty approachable food,” Gray said. Exposito said he has been surrounded by food and food preparation all of his life through his family upbringing. “It comes naturally for him,” Pablo Martín Domínguez, Exposito’s translator, said. Exposito said he was excited to share the flavors of Spain with IU students. He said he likes to have the

capacity to be able to deliver the experience to the average student, whether they are from the United States or international. Martín Domínguez is originally from Spain and spoke to the true talent of Exposito. He said the ingredients might differ here from those used in Spain, but the dishes were replicated to perfection. “When you can cook traditional food from basically the other side of the planet, that speaks volumes,” he said. “I have tried everything and it tastes the way it SEE CHEF, PAGE 6

Queer-allied fraternity embraces growth By Brett Dworski bdworski@indiana.edu | @BrettD93

IU junior Daniel Trent remembers watching the only other gay person from his hometown become ostracized for being gay. Trent grew up in Lynn, Ind., a town of about 1,000 people, where his high school graduating class was just 27 students. He said watching this discrimination kept him from living his life to the fullest. “Being an out and proud individual since I was 14, I know what it feels like to not have a support system that accepts you for who you are,” he said in an email. “But here at Indiana University, I found a group of people that knew the struggle.” Trent is a brother of IU’s first and only queer-allied fraternity, Sigma Phi Beta, which he said has brought him closer to others who have felt the same pain from being treated differently. Chapter President Bryant Hayes said in an email that Sigma Phi Beta began at IU in 2012 when a group of queer men wanted a fraternity where they felt they could be themselves while still being part of the greek community on campus.
