Student reports rape at Wright

Nanette Vonnegut reflects on father, Kurt

A 19-year-old IU student reported Tuesday she was raped and strangled Sept. 20 at Wright Quad by another student.

The woman told police she met the 18-year-old man on a social media app, which IU Police Department Capt. Craig Munroe did not identify.

Munroe said IUPD has interviewed the suspect but has not made an arrest. The investigation is ongoing.

Police don’t have enough information to determine whether the man is a continued threat at this time, Munroe said.

A crime notice from the University said the man invited the woman to his dorm room Thursday evening. The two did not know each other before meeting on the app.

Even though the suspect has been interviewed, Munroe said the crime notice was issued primarily to make students more aware of how to stay safe when meeting up with strangers from social media.

Munroe said students should try to meet in a neutral space or bring a friend along if at all possible.

“Think it through,” he said.

n an annual pilgrimage to Indiana, Nanette Vonnegut, daughter of legendary author Kurt Vonnegut, visited the Lilly Library to see its collection of her father’s original manuscripts.

“They’re precious now; growing up, they weren’t precious,” she said. “They were on the ground, coffee-stained, with ashes from his cigarettes. They were my childhood. I just wanted to see them again.”

Kurt Vonnegut’s manuscripts are sprawling and messy, filled with starts and stops, drafts and redrafts. Nanette Vonnegut says they’re a reminder of his hard work.

“Seeing his collection is a really beautiful thing,” she said. “And I’m really heartened by how it’s being taken care of.”

The Vonnegut manuscript collection at the Lilly Library contains about 6,000 items, including early rejection slips, drafts, doodles, fan letters, and art work,” said IU Libraries

Judge Frances Hill to retire after 12 years

By Sydney Tomlinson sydtomli@iu.edu | @sydpt

In her spare time, Judge Frances Hill writes fantasy stories for her two young granddaughters.

They’re about strong, kind and empowered women, often incorporating the law and superheroes.

Her older granddaughter, 4-year-old Molly, is very into superheroes, Hill said.

To many, Hill embodies the strong women she writes about in her stories.

Hill, 66, is retiring this year after 12 years on the bench in Monroe County and a lifelong career of public service, which includes founding the Monroe County office of the Court Appointed Special Advocates program to advocate for children.

Friends and colleagues describe her as a dedicated, caring and thoughtful person and judge.

“I’ve always just thought of myself as an advocate and usually an advocate for children,” she said.

After graduating from Purdue University in 1974, Hill returned to her hometown of Columbia City, Indiana, and began work as a case manager for the county welfare department, now Department of Child Services.

She fell in love with the work she was doing but also thought there was something missing, she said. She was motivated to go to law school out of a desire to under-

stand the legalities behind the situations she faced with her clients.

She wanted to understand the whole picture.

After graduating from IU Maurer School of Law and being admitted to the bar in 1980, Hill worked as the Monroe County Juvenile Court Referee, deciding delinquency and Children in Need of Services neglect and abuse cases, for six years.

In that time, she and her husband, George, had their daughter, Sally. Hill felt she needed a change of pace as she raised her daughter, she said. She began teaching at the law school, where she worked for 15 years.

In Hill’s life, family has always come first. She felt fortunate to have a loving, supportive family growing up and still remains close with her brothers, she said. They spend summers together at the family cottage in their hometown.

She calls the experience of being a grandparent “liquid gold.”

She has two granddaughters: Molly, 4, and June Francie, 4 months.

“They call her Junebug, because she was born in June, but I call her little Francie,” Hill said.

Hill brought the CASA program to Monroe County in the 1980s before she became a judge. CASA programs around the state and country assign trained volunteers to children in CHINS cases to advocate for them both in and out of the courtroom.

Judge Frances Hill stands in her office at the Charlotte Zietlow Justice Center.

Kristin Bishay, executive director of Monroe County CASA, said the CASA program wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for Hill.

“She’s made the difference for so many children that have been harmed in our community,” Bishay said.

Then, in 1999, the Indiana Supreme Court tapped her to create the Indiana Family Court Project.

The family court projects around the state emphasize mediation and affordability for family court cases,

such as divorce.

Hill, along with attorney Derelle Watson-Duvall, wrote the book on family law: the “Indiana CHINS and Family Law Deskbook,” a resource for attorneys, judges and social workers. Originally published in 1986, it has been updated six times since.

In 2006, a seat opened up on the Monroe County Circuit Court, and Hill was elected. Although she SEE HILL, PAGE 6

After a nearly six-month hiatus, IU basketball will return to Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall this weekend.

Hoosier Hysteria, the annual event signifying the start of the men’s and women’s basketball seasons, will take place at 4 p.m. Saturday in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.

“Really good weekend this weekend with Hoosier Hysteria for our fans and our players, their families, our staff,” IU Coach Archie Miller said. “Generally just kickoff week so to speak. So it’s exciting.”

Arena doors for the event will open to the public at 2 p.m., and the second half of IU’s football game at Rutgers will be shown on the video board inside the arena.

Admission for the event is free, but fans are encouraged to bring canned goods to the arena to donate to the Hoosier Hills Food Bank.

Prior to the event, parking lots around Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall and Memorial Stadium will open at 12:30 p.m. But fans who plan on arriving early in the day to stand in line will have to park in the Fee Lane parking garage.

This year’s Hoosier Hysteria will take place nearly a month ahead of when the 2017 event took place.

This comes as a result of the NCAA Division I Council approving a proposal in January allowing the men’s and women’s seasons to start earlier in November, as well as the NCAA moving the start of fall practice up by two weeks.

As such, preseason practice can now begin 42 days before the first game of the season for men’s and women’s teams, after another proposal was passed allowing women’s teams to start practice two days earlier than in years past.

This means teams will have more off days instead of practicing each possible day.

Frybread brings different cuisines together

By Lexi Haskell ldhaskel@iu.edu | @lexi_haskell

Heather Williams stretched the ball of dough out with her fingers. When it was large enough to her liking, about the size of the palm of her hand, she placed it in the pan of boiling oil. It sizzled in the popping oil, hot enough to burn anyone too close.

After the dough had fried completely, Williams picked it out of the pot with tongs and placed it in an aluminum container to keep warm.

This frybread was soft and would soon become an Indian taco filled with seasoned beef and beans. A condiment table sat not far away, holding cheese, lettuce, onions and sour cream on a redand-white checkered tablecloth.

Williams, the program assistant at First Nations Educational and Culture Center, is making Indian tacos, a Native American dish.

First Nations hosted the Indian taco sale Sept. 21 at its house on Eighth Street, serving traditional cuisine to students, faculty and the Bloomington community. While the tacos were the main dish, customers could get their frybread without any toppings or with cinnamon sugar, to make a “dessert taco.”

“This event brings people

together,” Williams said.

Frybread is one of the most recognizable dishes in Native American culture, and it is often sold at fairs and festivals. While it is considered traditional Native American cuisine, it didn’t come about until after colonization.

In the 1840s, white pioneers moved into Navajo land in the west. After 20 years of failed peace, the U.S. government forced the Navajo people to leave in 1864. Their 300mile trek is called the "Long Walk of the Navajo."

Hundreds of people starved to death on these walks, and the government only supplied the Navajo people with lard, flour, salt, sugar, baking powder and yeast. Over time, the Navajo learned to make these products into frybread, and it has become a tradition, said Jordan Begay, a senior studying biology at IU. Frybread is a staple for many Native American tribes and different tribes often add their own favorite foods to it, Begay said.

“Indian tacos are something I grew up with so it’s really personal for me,” said Begay, who is from the Navajo tribe in the southwest United States.

He eats his frybread with green chili and mutton because they are natural resources from that area.

Briana Albini, a first year master’s student studying Environmental Science, is part of the Miwok tribe, a coastal tribe from what is currently central California. She said she prefers fried seaweed.

Native American tribes come from a range of different places and climates, and because their traditional cuisines come from the natural resources around them, these cuisines vary greatly.

Williams, for instance, is part of the Puyallup tribe, from what is currently Washington.

Because her tribe traditionally lives off the water, smoked salmon is common.

They smoke it by putting the raw salmon in a box with burning cedar because there are many cedar trees in Washington.

Huckleberries are also part of the Puyallup tribe’s diet.

“I have lots of memories of picking huckleberries with my grandpa,” Williams said.

Begay said his family always eats the entirety of animals, including sheep.

He likes sheep eyeballs, which he says are tough but pop in your mouth. His grandma would eat sheep brains.

“We don’t waste anything,” he said.

Aside from meat, Begay said his tribe often eat corn, squash and beans. They grow food in “three sisters,” or in

groups of three that have a symbiotic relationship. For these three, the corn is tall, which provides height for the beans to grow. The squash grows low and forms a foundation at the bottom.

Another recipe Begay likes is corn mush, which includes mixing calcium-rich juniper ash and corn, sometimes also mixed with honey.

Back on the west coast, Alibini’s tribe eats lots of salmon and seaweed. Bay nuts are also common in central Cali-

fornia. Albini enjoys them roasted. The nuts contain as much caffeine as a cup of coffee.

“We sometimes put them in truffles to make caffeinated truffles,” she said.

Native Americans often eat traditional food, but sometimes they add a twist, like putting the pine nuts in truffles.

Even people who aren't Native American like Williams, Begay and Albini enjoy the food.

Four academic advisers from the College of Arts and Sciences attended the Indian taco sale. They said they are making an effort to attend diverse events, and this was their first one.

Both Stacy Weida and Serena Ostrander had eaten Indian tacos before, but this was a new experience for Shauna Melvin and Kim Ross. All four women loved the tacos.

“It’s really delicious,” Melvin said after she took a big bite.

Group offers space for sober students $9 million grant to improve mental health in schools

By Ellen Hine

emhine@indiana.edu | @ellenmhine

When drinking and doing drugs is depicted in movies and television as part of the typical American college experience, IU students recovering from addictions said it's difficult to feel like they belong on campus. Students in Recovery at Bloomington gives students a sense of community as they recover.

According to the OASIS website, Students in Recovery started in 2015 to provide a supportive group for students struggling with addiction at IU. While substance abuse tends to be perceived as a problem for older adults, addiction can affect anyone regardless of age.

“I feel like if people saw who was struggling with addiction, especially younger people, they would be kind of blown away,” senior Anna Peabody said.

Peabody said she joined Students in Recovery her sophomore year after hearing former OASIS director Jackie Daniels discuss addiction at

a Residential Programs and Services event and realized she wanted to get sober.

Peabody said at first, she didn’t see herself as struggling with addiction because she was only a college student.

“When I was contemplating getting sober, I was like ‘Well, I’m not an old man under a bridge, drinking out of a paper bag,’” Peabody said.

“But that’s not what it is. It’s anyone.”

Students in Recovery is not only open to students recovering from substance abuse, but also eating disorders or any mental health conditions. The group meets weekly for students to discuss their recovery and support each other, senior Alex Shaffer said.

Shaffer joined Students in Recovery last fall after returning to IU from addiction treatment in Minnesota. He said while working with mental health professionals is an important part of recovery, having a support group made of peers helps students feel like they’re not alone.

“It’s harder to relate when you’re sitting across from

someone that you know hasn’t necessarily dealt with substance abuse issues personally,” Shaffer said.

Shaffer said Students in Recovery allows students just starting to recover to connect with members with years of sobriety under their belt. Outside of meetings, members have a group chat so they can talk and reach out for support at any time.

“The reason a lot of us got to where we were at our worst was because of isolating ourselves and then just continuing to go down that hole,” Shaffer said. “It’s great to have that support.”

While Students in Recovery serves as a support group for students, the organization also needs financial and institutional support.

Students in Recovery at Bloomington founder Jacob Desmond said it has been difficult to get help for the organization from the University.

“A lot of administrators have a tough time swallowing that there’s people that go to school here that shoot

heroin in their veins,” Desmond said.

He said he thinks bureaucracy, IU’s large size and a general lack of interest from administrators are the reasons the group is low on resources and not well recognized.

There are other ways for the group to get money outside of University funding.

Desmond said Students in Recovery has been trying to get a developmental fund, which would let donors give tax-deductible donations directly to the organization.

Both Desmond and Peabody said IU students questioning if they have an addiction can reach out to Students in Recovery for any questions they may have about getting sober.

Peabody said she wants people to know addiction is a disease, not a judgment of character.

“I’ve had some friends tell me this before, but you’re not a bad person trying to get good,” Peabody said. “You’re a sick person trying to get well.”

Community members show solidarity

By Emily Isaacman eisaacma@iu.edu | @emilyisaacman

Clad in black, a group of women and a few men stood under umbrellas and a dreary sky in an open oval near the edge of Third Street Park.

Debra Morrow, executive director of Middle Way House, spoke to the crowd before leading a moment of silence for survivors.

“It’s 2018, folks,” Morrow told the crowd, her voice shaking. “Survivors of sexual assault should not have to defend their actions.”

About 25 people gathered in the pouring rain midday Monday, standing in solidarity with survivors of sexual assault.

Time’s Up, a national advocacy group against sexual harassment, organized the national walkout with the hashtag #BelieveSurvivors as a display of solidarity with Christine Blasey Ford, who came forward with allegations of sexual assault against her high school classmate and Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh last Sunday.

Deborah Ramirez, Kavanaugh’s Yale classmate, shared her own allegations one week later. Kavanaugh has denied the allegations.

The Bloomington event was led by the Middle Way House, a domestic violence and sexual assault support center.

In an echo of the #MeToo

Debra Morrow, Middle Way House executive director, speaks at a walkout Sept. 24 in support of survivors of sexual assault.

movement, #WhyIDidntReport flooded social media Friday afternoon.

Morrow shared the sadness and inspiration she felt upon watching people come forward through their posts.

In a moment of bravery, Morrow created a Twitter account. In another moment of bravery, she wrote her first tweet: “Because I was nine years old,” she wrote. “He was my priest. And I thought I would go to hell.”

Quickly, she found herself reliving the blame and the shame she felt 28 years ago.

She hid the tweet from public view within an hour.

“To this day, I still live with the fear of consequences and disclosure, even though I know it was not my fault,”

Morrow said.

A couple of other women shared their stories after a moment of silence.

Sarah Hunt, outreach communications coordinator for the Middle Way House, was in her 30s. She first told a friend, who asked if she was sure she understood what she was saying, if she was sure she understood what really happened.

“That really affirmed to me, and informed me, how I was going to move forward,” Hunt said.

She didn’t feel the need to report what happened. She didn’t anticipate saying anything at the walkout Monday, either.

“It wasn’t going to change what happened,” Hunt said.

The Middle Way House

provides a safe space for people to reach out for support without being instructed whether or not to report, she said. Many survivors who have gone through the criminal justice process tell Hunt they have found it more painful than the actual experience.

Hunt supports those who choose to share their stories, but said she understands why they might refrain.

“They have nothing to gain from doing so, and everything to lose,” Hunt said.

About two out of every three sexual assaults go unreported, according to the 2015 National Crime Victimization survey.

Morrow said anytime a survivor’s credibility is publicly challenged there is a huge effect on others trying to gather the courage to share their own stories.

“Enough is enough,” Morrow said.

She urged the crowd to contact Sen. Joe Donnelly, D-Indiana, and Sen. Todd Young, R-Indiana.

Let them know what you want from them and tell them you believe survivors, she said.

Bloomington resident Margaret Clements said she has been living the #MeToo movement her whole life. She said she doesn’t think Kavanaugh deserves a gavel or a robe.

“I believe the survivors,” Clements said.

Indiana was given a $9 million grant Sept. 13 to improve mental health programs. The Indiana Department of Education distributed the funds to three different schools so the schools can pair with local community centers to improve mental health and wellness in the area.

Vigo County School Corporation, Perry Central Community School Corporation and Avon Community School Corporation received the grant money. The grant comes from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.

Stephanie Bode, assistant principal of Avon High School, compared students’ health to an imaginary backpack. Students carry problems inside of that backpack, which the teachers can’t see.

“We talked about the things that kids carry that we don’t see,” Bode said.

Bode said there are many factors going on behind the scenes that teachers don’t see, and teachers should meet students where they are.

Adam Baker, the press secretary for the Indiana Department of Education, said it is the responsibility of the school corporations and community centers to create secondary sites. The goal of the grant money is to allow the model training sites to get enough momentum to be able to fund themselves by the time the money runs out.

The grant, called the Project Advancing Wellness and Resilience Education grant, aims to improve mental health around the state as well as set up model centers that can help create more programs. The Department

of Education does not have a part in choosing which schools become secondary sites of the program.

Baker said the school districts were chosen based upon prerequisites such as their existing mental health programs, the presence of a community center and interest in becoming a model site.

Another factor that affected the schools chosen was the desire to have the schools reflect Indiana’s demographic landscape. Rural, suburban and urban districts were all represented.

Avon was chosen as the suburban district, Bode said. Avon stood out as a good option because of its investment in students’ mental health. The school has a mental wellness week, where it educates students about different coping strategies. Avon also received a Lilly Grant to improve their mental health programs in 2017.

“One of the things districts have said for a long, long time is we need socioemotional well-being support in schools,” Baker said.

“We need to be able to reach these children.”

Perry Central was chosen to help study rural districts, and Vigo County is the representative for urban districts. Baker said another perk to this setup was the fact that it would make creating more model sites easier because they could see what problems may arise in different settings and how to combat them.

For the stipulations of the grant itself, much of the information is left up to the individual schools, Bode said.

The grant specifies some of the money is to be used to hire a full-time coordinator for the program.

Monroe County: a blue stronghold in Indiana

Less than two months out from Election Day, Democrats in Bloomington have stepped up their ground game in an effort to achieve victory up and down the ballot.

The endeavor comes amidst a national conversation regarding the identity of the Democratic Party.

The two Democratic candidates for federal office on Bloomington ballots this November are Liz Watson — running to unseat incumbent Rep. Trey Hollingsworth, R9th District — and Joe Donnelly, the incumbent U.S. Senator defending his seat against Republican challenger Mike Braun.

Donnelly has positioned himself as a more moderate Democrat, voting in the Senate to fund President Trump’s border wall and even including Trump in a recent campaign advertisement. Watson is running a more progressive campaign focused on issues of social justice and Medicare for all.

On a national level, they’d appear to represent two wings of the party working to control the message. But their strategies aren’t mutually exclusive, some Monroe County Democrats say.

Watson are much more similar than Joe Donnelly and Mike Braun, for example, or Joe Donnelly and President Trump,” said Mark Fraley, chair of the Monroe County Democratic Party.

Fraley said Democrats in Monroe County have a clear choice when it comes to their Senate candidate and recognize that Donnelly would be a more consistent ally than his opponent. He noted that Watson and Donnelly agree on many issues, like taxes, and that the different campaign messages may also be a matter of constituency — the 9th District versus the whole state.

Raegan Davis, president of

College Democrats at IU, said if Donnelly and Watson were running against each other, tension between different Democratic identities would be more at play. Since voters don’t have to choose between the two, it gives the candidates more room to coexist, regardless of whether the campaigns work closely with one another.

But that doesn’t mean Bloomington Democrats feel a need to sacrifice their principles, regardless of how they’ll vote in the Senate race.

“I do think that we certainly have a much more progressive base here, and they’re not going to be in lockstep with Donnelly on a lot of different

issues, and they’re not going to love all of his ads,” Fraley said.

Both campaigns have hit the ground running in Monroe County. The area is one of the few Democratic strongholds in a state Trump won by 19 points in 2016. The 9th District, which Watson is running to represent, includes Monroe County but also extends all the way down to the state’s southern border.

Watson’s campaign has registered about 2,600 voters on campus since the start of the semester. It has almost 100 IU student volunteers and an additional 350 non-student volunteers and employees in

Monroe County, said campaign manager Brian Peters.

“We have a real opportunity here,” Peters said in an interview. “This is the most exciting congressional race in Indiana. Liz is a Red to Blue candidate. We have a really interesting race going on.”

Red to Blue candidates are those identified by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee as integral part of its strategy to flip the House. The goal of the DCCC is equipping those candidates with enough resources to make that happen.

The Donnelly campaign has about 60 IU students volunteering and another 150

volunteers and employees in Monroe County alone. Donnelly has made six stops in Bloomington this year, including two since the beginning of August, according to the campaign.

“Joe is running to be the hired help in the Senate for all Hoosiers, and we’re campaigning hard in all 92 counties, including Monroe,” said Conner Klotz, Donnelly for Indiana spokesman. “Joe’s message of hard work and common sense is resonating with Hoosiers all over the state, including students at IU and residents of Bloomington, and they’re chipping in to make sure Joe is re-elected in November.”

Donnelly is at the head of a coordinated down-ballot campaign — meaning candidates for local, state and federal offices organizing closely with one another in their strategy and messaging.

Watson’s campaign exists outside of the coordinated structure, though their efforts can benefit each other.

“Everything Liz Watson does to turn out Democratic voters helps the coordinated campaign and vice-versa,” Fraley said. “We need Joe Donnelly, we need Liz Watson, and we need to do everything that we can to campaign vigorously to make sure those two are elected.”

IU Bass Fishing club a little fish in a big pond

By Ellen Hine emhine@indiana.edu | @ellenmhine

Almost everyone who steps foot in Bloomington knows basketball is an important part of IU’s legacy.

But the University also has a rich history in an unlikely sport: competitive bass fishing.

The IU Bass Fishing Club was founded in 1987, making it the oldest college fishing team in the country, according to the group’s website. For 31 years, club members have competed around the country against other collegiate teams for championship titles and cash prizes.

“We do things of all different levels, whether it just be going out and going to a pond after classes one day or, you know, we do club tournaments, which is more just a fun event,” club president Joe Long said. “It doesn’t really matter your skill level.”

Long, a senior, said he has fished with his father and grandfather from a young age. He contacted the IU Bass Fishing Club as a freshman after seeing a video of club members fishing.

“I actually had never been in a competitive bass fishing tournament before, and I really didn’t even know it existed,” Long said.

Bass fisherman — or anglers, as they are also called, because they use an angled fish hook — need to know where the most fish will be located based on the season and the layout of each lake, Long said.

During competitions,

teams use these skills to catch their five biggest fish and place them in livewell, a tank with water continuously pumped into it so that the fish can be released after weighing.

He said healthy fisheries mean more bass for anglers to catch later.

“We’re all about fish care and making sure the fish are healthy,” Long said.

“We’re all about fish care and making sure the fish are healthy.”

Joe Long, club president

Long said after seven or eight hours of fishing, the teams present their final five catches for judging. The team with the heaviest overall weight wins.

Two IU club members, Chris Walter and Jacob Gress, qualified for the 2018 Carhartt Bassmaster College Series National Championship where they came in 69th place, according to the competition’s website.

Sophomore Zach McMillan said he never fished competitively until he joined the club freshman year. His first competition was a club tournament last year against other IU members.

“I didn’t do very well on the first one, but it was a lot of fun nonetheless,” McMillan said.

McMillan said his fishing has gotten better through the tournaments.

This summer he reno-

vated his grandfather’s old 16-and-a-half-foot boat, which he said is short for a bass fishing boat. He is storing the boat at a friend’s place during the school year so he can easily go fish on Lake Monroe.

“Hopefully I’ll be able to bring the boat to some of the bigger college tournaments,” McMillan said.

“We’ll just have to see.”

McMillan is beginning to become more involved in running the club. Elected treasurer this year, McMillan said he wanted to help the club grow.

“It’s a lot of fun for me,” McMillan said. “I like being around like-minded fishermen who enjoy the outdoors and enjoy fishing.

It’s just good to have a nice group of people to go to.”

Being in the club has allowed Long to travel around the country and fish in some of the lakes he saw growing up when he would watch professional fishing, he said. His favorite place he has visited is Kentucky Lake.

Long said he plans to compete in local tournaments after he graduates, but he doesn’t plan to compete at a national level. He said entry fees for national tournaments can be several thousand dollars. The IU team has sponsors who pay the fees so students can go for free.

“I’m trying to take advantage of being able to go to all of these awesome lakes and compete against other colleges while I still can,” Long said. “I’ll definitely miss it.”

A sign that says “Keep Calm and Practice Reiki” sits in Becky Holtzman’s healing studio Sept. 26 in Orange Flower Healing. Reiki, an alternative therapy focused on healing energy, usually translates as “universal life energy.”

Reiki healing practice moves to new Third Street location

By Alex Hardgrave ahardgra@iu.edu | @a_hardgrave

Becky Holtzman discovered Reiki in 2013 when someone recommended she take a class on it. After taking this class, Holtzman said she found something she loved.

She moved back to Bloomington from Portland, Oregon in 2015 and opened her own local Reiki practice, Orange Flower Healing, out of her home.

In spring 2016, she started looking for places for the practice outside of her home.

Orange Flower Healing moved to a new location Sept.

4 in the Landmark Offices off West Third Street. The practice had an open house Sept.

22.

Reiki is a Japanese form of alternative medicine. According to the Orange Flower website, the benefits, which include stress reduction and

body system balance, are given through light touches.

At Orange Flower, a Reiki treatment is 90 minutes. Sixty minutes is the Reiki process itself, which involves the practitioner placing his or her hands on spots on the client’s head, stomach and back for three to five minutes each.

The remaining 30 minutes are for conversation before and after the session.

Holtzman said she is not the only person in Bloomington to offer Reiki. In fact, there is an active Reiki community and there are many different types. The type Holtzman practices is Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki.

Holtzman said she feels she was trained in the very traditional way, which is a slow process, and is still apprenticing with a Reiki master.

She hopes to finish next year.

“You’re always learning,” she said. “It’s an ongoing pro-

cess.”

About 50 percent of her clients are cancer survivors, Holtzman said. Many others come in for stress relief.

Some clients come in often while others come in just when they feel they need “a tune up,” as Holtzman describes it.

Client Bill Weber said Reiki transfers health energy.

“It’s not Becky’s energy, but it’s the universe’s energy,” Weber said.

Weber said Reiki makes him feel more relaxed, more at peace, more in charge and more ready to face whatever is coming next in life. Weber said Holtzman is very professional and he would recommend her for anyone seeking a Reiki provider.

“The thing people most often say is, ‘I just feel better,’” Holtzman said. “Feeling a little bit better can make all the difference in the world.”

SWIMMING

Mackenzie Looze to swim for Coach Looze, again

By Matt Cohen mdc1@iu.edu | @Matt_Cohen_

Freshman Mackenzie Looze first jumped into the outdoor pool on the campus of IU at two years old.

Her dad, IU swimming and diving Coach Ray Looze, said when their family moved to Bloomington, they stayed at the Hampton Inn. The outdoor pool was used to get the kids out of the room.

“She started swimming under the water across one of those pools and she was two,” Ray Looze said. “It was just weird to see somebody so small swim under water, and she would swim with her eyes open. I’ll never forget it. People were going ‘What?

Is she going to drown?’ The life guards were ready right there.”

She didn’t drown, and she’s barely left the pool since.

Mackenzie Looze has grown up around swimming, though her journey to IU is different than most of her other teammates. Looze grew up around her swimming coaches — they are her parents.

Ray Looze has been the head swimming coach at IU since 2002, when he moved to Bloomington with his daughter Mackenzie, and wife, Kandis Looze. Ray Looze isn’t the only swimming coach in the family. While he coaches the Hoosiers, Kandis Looze is the head coach at Bloomington High School South.

Mackenzie Looze got her first taste of the pool early on in her life, but she had other interests in her childhood as well.

“When she was younger, she did gymnastics and swimming,” Kandis Looze said. “When she was about 10, the demands with both sports was really high. She chose herself swimming at the age of 10.”

The choice to stick with swimming panned out well for Mackenzie Looze, as

she swam for Bloomington Swim Club growing up, and eventually, entered her high school career at Bloomington South.

“It’s weird to have the dynamic of a coach, and the dynamic of that’s your mom,” Mackenzie Looze said.

Mackenzie Looze primarily swims the 400 individual medley, an event that isn’t raced in high school. She swam that event with Bloomington Swim Club, but with Bloomington South, Mackenzie Looze swam the 200 IM, 200 freestyle, 500 freestyle and in her senior year, she swam the 100 breast stroke.

Mackenzie Looze was a successful high school and club swimmer. Though when it came to the recruitment process, she had to go through a different process than most high school athletes.

“Actually, my dad had zero to do with my recruitment process,” Mackenzie Looze said. “I told him that if he did, I would not commit.”

Ray Looze said that his daughter wanted to be recruited by IU, and he had associate head coaches Coley Stickels and Mike Westphal recruit her to IU. For years, though, Mackenzie Looze didn’t want to go to IU. At first, Mackenzie wanted to be somewhere else in the country, and not at the program she knew so well growing up. But in the end, Looze trimmed her list down to two schools: IU and the University of Kentucky.

“The Kentucky coach is literally my best friend, and I trust him,” Ray Looze said.

“I would have been totally comfortable with her going there.”

Mackenzie Looze went down to Lexington, Kentucky, for Junior Day, and said she came away impressed. The difference between the Hoosiers and Wildcats came down to not just the team, but the people

on that team.

Mackenzie Looze had already known so much about IU from the years she had spent living in Bloomington.

However, she was convinced by how good of a team and a program the Hoosiers offered, pushing IU ahead of Kentucky on her list of schools.

Kandis Looze said that during the summer, the college team turns into a club team. Mackenzie Looze got the chance to compete with this group, thus having the opportunity to bond with the other IU swimmers, another factor that came into her ultimately picking IU. “I think the summer I committed, I was committing to how great of a team they were,” Mackenzie said of IU. “They were really supportive, and really welcoming, and not that Kentucky wasn’t, but I just felt at home

here. I think that’s what I was committing to.”

After one more summer competition as part of the IU club team, and coming off a strong performance at the Phillips 66 National Championships in California during the summer of 2018, Mackenzie Looze’s head coach changed from Coach Looze to Coach Looze.

“The first summer was rough, and then after that she embraced it and matured with the kids,” Kandis Looze said. “I think she felt comfortable. The last summer that she trained for them, she bonded with the kids and she realized that the culture was exactly what she wanted.”

They share the bond of daughter and father, but they’ve also gotten accustomed to their swimmer and coach relationship.

“We’ve worked together

FOOTBALL

for a couple summers now, and it’s been fine,” Ray Looze said. “She’s really, really coachable. She likes to get better. She races hard. She’s a knucklehead at times.”

Just like any family relationship, there are ups and downs.

“I’ve never had a problem with you,” Mackenzie Looze turned to her dad and said.

She then turned toward her mom, and added, “Yet.” Mackenzie Looze said that she won’t be able to call her father by his first name on the pool deck, which Kandis Looze noted that every other swimmer on the team is able to. According to Ray, it will be either “dad” or “coach.”

“I think I’m going to cut her, maybe suspend her,” Ray Looze joked if Mackenzie Looze calls him by his first name.

Since Mackenzie Looze

has such a familiarity with IU and Bloomington as a whole, she’s emerged as a leader among the strong freshman class.

“I’ve already been labeled the mom because I give everybody rides, make sure they all do their homework,” Mackenzie Looze said.

Though he’s certainly not complaining about having her wearing the cream and crimson striped IU uniforms, Ray Looze joked about other passions his daughter could have pursued.

“I was hoping she’d get into skydiving, but that just didn’t fly,” Ray Looze said.

When Mackenzie Looze asked her father if he’d miss her when she goes to college, he said he might see her now more than ever.

“For all three of us it’s special,” Ray Looze said. “It’s a real, real blessing that we have this opportunity.”

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky (10) hands off the ball to Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard (24) during the second half against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, Sept. 23, 2018 at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

Hoosiers in the NFL: Week 3 recap

By Cameron Drummond cpdrummo@iu.edu | @cdrummond97

Another week of NFL action featured seven former IU football players among those who made in-game appearances this weekend.

Headlining the Hoosier performers were two former IU running backs, Tevin Coleman and Jordan Howard.

Coleman rushed for 33 yards on 15 attempts for the Atlanta Falcons, but he also recorded a five-yard touchdown reception during Atlanta’s home game against New Orleans.

Coleman made the short catch, shed a would-be Saints tackler and stayed in bounds before diving and successfully reaching the football around the pylon for the touchdown.

Coleman’s effort wasn’t able to spark an Atlanta win, as New Orleans won the game 43-37 in overtime.

While Coleman scored his first rushing touchdown of the season in Atlanta’s opening game, it took Howard until Sunday to run his way into the end zone.

The Chicago Bears running back totaled 61 rushing yards on 24 carries against the Arizona Cardinals, including a season-long rush of 17 yards.

In addition to his rushing score, Howard had two catches for 20 yards as the Bears won 16-14.

A pair of former Hoosier offensive guards faced each other on the West Coast as Rodger Saffold and the Los Angeles Rams played against crosstown rivals Dan Feeney and the Los Angeles Chargers at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

Feeney started once again for the Chargers, as he has for all three games this season, giving him 12 career NFL starts.

Saffold has also started all three games for the Rams, but now has 98 career starts in the NFL. Bragging rights from the matchup went to Saffold as the Rams beat the Chargers 35-23.

Jason Spriggs, another former IU offensive lineman, also saw game action for the Green Bay Packers in their game at the Washing-

ton Redskins.

Spriggs didn’t start, which has become normal for the offensive tackle this season as he’s played in all three games, but none in a starting role.

He made the 26th game appearance of his career as Green Bay lost 31-17.

Wide receiver Cody Latimer posted one catch Sunday for the New York Giants in its 27-22 road win against the Houston Texans.

Latimer’s lone reception from Giants quarterback Eli Manning went for 15 yards.

He now has three receptions this season.

Lastly, tight end Ian Thomas made his secondstraight start for the Carolina Panthers following an injury to starting tight end Greg Olsen. Thomas, a rookie, had a season and therefore career high in both catches with three and receiving yards with 20 as the Panthers won their home game 31-21 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Thomas has played in all three of Carolina’s games this season, totaling seven catches for 34 yards.

This weekend served as the perfect reminder as to why the NFL is the best professional sports league in America.

The Buffalo Bills emerged from having a player retire at halftime last Sunday and early talk of going 0-16 to nearly shutting out the heavyweight Minnesota Vikings.

En route to a 3-0 start, Patrick Mahomes broke Peyton Manning’s record for most touchdown passes to start a season, while inserting himself into MVP candidacy and the Kansas City Chiefs into Super Bowl contention.

Following an embarrassing offensive performance in Detroit for the AFC juggernaut New England Patriots, the undefeated Miami Dolphins now lead the AFC East by two games.

Oh, and the Cleveland Browns won for the first time in 635 days.

Recently, it’s become accepted as fact by so many in the sports world — or at least in the Twittersphere — that the NBA is No. 1. While the NBA is better at supporting its players and communities, what ultimately sets the NFL apart is that it offers a large group of fans hope for a championship.

As former New York Jets Head Coach Herm Edwards said, “You play to win the game. You don’t play to just play it.”

Considering the recent dominance of the Golden State Warriors, most NBA teams are playing to just play.

Before the season begins next month, 24 NBA teams can be reasonably counted out at having a legitimate shot at a championship, barring major injury to stars on the Warriors, Boston Celtics, Toronto Raptors, Philadelphia 76ers, Houston Rockets or

Los Angeles Lakers.

Even with that generous list, most fans would be surprised if it’s not the Warriors defeating the Celtics in the NBA Finals next summer.

For the past four years, it’s been the same two teams, Cavaliers and Warriors, in the NBA Finals. That’s not to diminish the excellence of their rivalry in the Finals.

Each year’s Finals have been objectively compelling, except last summer’s sweep

by Golden State.

But, in the leadups to those series, neither team usually faced a serious threat to its championship appearances.

The better team wins a higher percentage of the time in the NBA, but it lacks the excitement of the NFL. Every NFL game majorly sways where a team finishes in the standings.

The stars of NBA players shine brighter than the stars

of the NFL, but these are both team games. Fans don’t buy tickets to see 33-10-10 stat lines from a star basketball player in a loss, they go to the games to see their team win.

Because of the increasing focus on fantasy sports, it’s become commonplace to focus on the gaudy stats of elite players.

For example, Russell Westbrook won an MVP award for breaking the record for most triple-doubles in a season, but his team finished sixth in the Western conference and was bounced from the playoffs in five games.

“Any Given Sunday” could not be a better way to describe the unpredictability and urgency that NFL fans love. And in the NFL, this week continued to prove that every game matters. tjsorg@indiana.edu

PORTNOY’S COMPLAINTS

Mark Cuban is no outlier.

He’s part of the trend.

Ben Portnoy is a senior in journalism.

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Mark Cuban at OZY Fest in 2017 in New York City. Cuban recently announced he was donating $10 million to women’s groups after investigations into the Dallas Mavericks, the NBA team he owns.

Mark Cuban donates $10 million to women’s groups after investigation

By Matt Cohen mdc1@iu.edu | @Matt_Cohen_

Mark Cuban, the owner of the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks and a 1981 Kelley School of Business graduate, donated $10 million Sept. 19 to groups helping those affected by domestic violence.

The donation came after the Mavericks organization was investigated for such claims.

The NBA completed an investigation into the Mavericks organization and uncovered “serious workplace misconduct,” according to a USA TODAY report.

“In hindsight, it was staring me right in the face, and I missed it,” Cuban told “The Jump,” an ESPN show hosted by Rachel Nichols. “You know, I wasn’t as focused on the business as I should’ve been.”

NBA commissioner Adam Silver decided to not suspend Cuban because he wasn’t directly involved in the harassment of female employees in the organization, according to ESPN. “That was an important factor for me in making that decision,” Silver told ESPN. “Should he have known in many cases? Absolutely. But again, from the 215 witness interviews, the over a million pages [of documents in the report], the clear picture that was presented was Mark was absentee from the business side of the organization. So that was a critically important factor.”

Cuban will not face any additional punishment from the NBA. “It was a real life ‘Animal House,’” a former Mavericks employee told Sports Illustrated. “And I only say ‘was’ because I’m not there any-

more. I’m sure it’s still going on.”

Comments like the one above in a Sports Illustrated article in February prompted the NBA’s investigation into the Mavericks organization.

Numerous allegations in the report were made against former CEO and president Terdema Ussery.

Ussery left the team in 2015.

The report found improper work conduct by Ussery toward 15 female employees, which included inappropriate comments, touching and forcible kissing, according to ESPN. “First, just an apology to the women involved,” Cuban told ESPN. “This is not something that just is an incident and then it’s over.

It stays with people. It stays with families. And I’m just sorry I didn’t see it. I’m just sorry I didn’t recognize it.”

As Rachel Nichols opened her Sept. 19 interview with Mark Cuban on ESPN’s NBA program “The Jump,” the mercurial Mavericks owner literally sat on the edge of his seat.

Nervously sipping from a mug, Cuban appeared tense — almost cowering in his chair. His torso leaned over the glass table where he and Nichols sat.

Never one to mince words, this was a Mark Cuban I had not seen before.

The bashful billionaire was visibly in a bind.

“You run an NBA franchise where you’ve talked a lot publicly about how you know everything that goes on there,” Nichols began.

“You did know of a few of these isolated incidents.

But even the best-case scenario of you not knowing, the best version of it is that women in your office felt unsafe coming to work. That they made official complaints to human resources, that they were threatened, they were not promoted. If you just didn’t know any of this, how do you explain that?”

For context, Nichols was referring to whether Cuban knew of former marketing and game operations employee Melissa Weishaupt’s claims of rampant sexual abuse and harassment by ex-Mavs CEO Terdema Ussery released by Sports Illustrated in a first-person essay March 20.

Over the course of the nearly seven minute segment, Cuban pled ignorance — seemingly a given for anyone involved in sexual harassment or assault claims these days.

Perhaps most jarring

was when Nichols revealed one of Ussery’s perceived victims came into the office with visible bruising.

“Young African American man, it’s 2014, and I had a decision to make,” Cuban said. “The decision was do I just fire him? My fear in that if I just say ‘Hey you’re fired,’ what’s he going to do next? And what happens to the next person?”

To recap, Cuban justified his decision to not fire Ussery after what — based on Sports Illustrated’s reporting — appeared to be blatant acts of domestic abuse because he was worried Ussery’s life would be ruined because he was a “young African American man.”

I’ll admit the race concern here is valid, but that’s beside the point.

Nichols later arrived at the accusations Ussery was watching pornography on his computer at work.

Through the investigation it was documented Cuban knew of these allegations and threatened to fire him.

However, there was ultimately no follow up from the Mavericks’ owner.

“Well, I got reports back saying he was on probation and that he was being dealt with,” Cuban remarked. “So I just assumed it was being dealt with. I didn’t have any reason to think otherwise.”

Thus, we’ve arrived at the crux of the issue — taking people’s word at what it is.

I read Bowen McCoy’s 1997 story in the Harvard Business Review entitled “The Parable of the Sadhu.”

McCoy’s piece chronicled his months long trek through the Nepalese Himalayas. Midway through their expedition, the former president and chairman

of Morgan Stanley and his hiking party came across an Indian holy man, or Sadhu.

Shivering in the cold with little-to-no clothing, the Sadhu man hinged between life and death. In response, each of the various parties offered little things, yet no one was willing to take the ultimate plight and help the man down the mountain.

McCoy posited this as an existential question as to why humans are unwilling to take full responsibility.

Over the past decade, countless examples of sexual violence and harassment have been exacerbated by a lack of accountability.

Just a few weeks ago, Ohio State head football coach Urban Meyer was suspended for the first three games of the 2018 season because he turned a blind eye to domestic assault allegations against former wide receivers coach Zach Smith.

After his initial remarks to the media, Meyer stated in an interview with ESPN his fault was taking the word of others and not asking more questions.

Case. In. Point.

As evidenced, the dilemma of the Sadhu is an almost identical moral controversy to those of the recently surfaced sexual misconduct claims in the sports world.

Of course, the other issue at hand is when one is put in this situation, how would you act?

The easy answer is that you would help the woman making her claims.

But as recent history shows, morality doesn’t reign supreme when it comes to sports. bmportno@iu.edu

FOOTBALL

Three things to know about Rutgers University

By Sean Mintert smintert@iu.edu | @sean_mintert20

After last week’s disappointing 35-21 loss to thenNo. 24 Michigan State, IU travels to Piscataway, New Jersey, for the second game of its Big Ten Conference season.

IU will take on Rutgers, which has lost three straight games after a season-opening victory against Texas State.

Here are three things you need to know about IU’s week five opponent.

Rutgers has been blown out for three consecutive weeks.

A week-two trip to Ohio State put a damper on expectations after the Scarlet Knights won their season opener for the first time since 2015.

Rutgers gained just 169 yards on offense in the 52-3 drubbing at the hands of the Buckeyes.

The Rutgers defense was just as bad, allowing Ohio State to score touchdowns on five of its first six drives.

A visit to Kansas provided no respite, as the Jayhawks tallied 405 rushing yards in a 55-14 shellacking.

Buffalo then became the third team to beat up on Rutgers when the Bulls

came to New Jersey and controlled the game from start to finish, ending with a 42-13 victory.

In those three games, Rutgers was outscored 14930, and the Scarlet Knights will be hoping to just stay within striking distance this week against the Hoosiers.

Now in his third season, Rutgers Coach Chris Ash has won just three total conference games.

In Rutgers’ first Big Ten season in 2014 under thenCoach Kyle Flood, the Scarlet Knights were more than respectable, finishing 8-5 after winning the Quick

Lane Bowl against North Carolina.

But soon after, the wheels began to fall off the Rutgers program, and the 2015 season was a big step backward.

With off-field troubles plaguing the team before the season began, the Scarlet Knights went 4-8 and Flood was fired.

Current Coach Chris Ash took over just a week later, and has yet to put a real mark on the program.

After posting a record of 2-10 in his first season, Ash showed improvement in his second year, finishing 4-8 with three wins in the Big

Ten. Despite making some progress last season, the back-to-back defeats to Kansas and Buffalo have shown there is plenty of work still to be done.

The Rutgers defense provides an opportunity for IU’s offense to bounce back.

After a strong performance against Texas State, the Rutgers defense has been nothing short of abysmal.

During the three-game losing streak, the Scarlet Knights have allowed an average of 49.7 points and

over 500 yards of offense per game.

After facing a defense as tough as Michigan State’s, a matchup with Rutgers could be just what the IU offense needs to get back on track.

Expect to see a healthy dose of freshman Stevie Scott and the running game, as Rutgers has struggled to stop the run during its three-game slide.

After a stagnant performance last week, the Hoosier offense will be looking to put up some serious points against one of the worst defenses in all of college football.

COURTESY PHOTO

Nannette Vonnegut, daughter of author Kurt Vonnegut, spoke Sept. 24 at the Vonnegut Library about her maternal grandmother’s mental health.

» VONNEGUT

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 assistant librarian Isabel Planton.

“The multiple drafts of some works in the collection, such as ‘Slaughterhouse-Five,’ demonstrate how hard Vonnegut had to work to achieve his desired effect with his writing,” Planton said.

A resident of Northampton, Massachusetts, and an artist herself, Nanette Vonnegut comes to Indianapolis on invitation from the Vonnegut Library nearly every year. On Monday evening, she spoke at the library about her maternal grandmother’s mental health.

“I’m going to bat for my grandmother,” she said, chuckling. “But always, I’m going to bat for my father.”

Being the daughter of a writer isn’t as romantic as it sounds, Nanette Vonnegut said.

“What I saw was a moody guy,” she said. “Now I get why he was moody.”

He toiled away all day long in his study in the family’s Cape Cod home, entering in the mornings and often not emerging until the evenings when it was time for dinner or cocktails. Nanette Vonnegut and her siblings knew not to bother him while he was at work, she said.

“My mother was sort of the gatekeeper,” Nanette Vonnegut said. “She believed in him, was invested in him, because

she knew he was different from anything she had ever read.”

Her mother was a literature major, an academic and a caretaker. She took care of the children while her husband wrote, wrote, wrote.

Many people think of Kurt Vonnegut as a solitary or antisocial person, but that wasn’t the case, Nanette Vonnegut said. She recalls a time even before his fame when Jack Kerouac came to visit the family’s home.

“He wasn’t cool with Jack Kerouac’s drunken behavior and swearing,” she said. “So, he said, ‘he’s gotta go.’ He had his standards.”

Later, when he moved to New York after gaining traction as a writer, he enjoyed the business, she said. He was always doing something.

“The guy was never idle,” Nanette Vonnegut said. “If he wasn’t writing, he was doing paintings. It was an exciting house to be in. He was a creative force, and my mother was also very sparkly and very positive.”

Despite her father’s need for privacy when he wrote, he was a tender and loving figure in Nanette’s life.

He was surprisingly funny, out of nowhere, she said.

She remembers him chasing her and her siblings around the house, bread crusts jammed in his mouth to imitate fangs.

But that didn’t last forever.

“It was sort of the end of this, the family unit,” she said of her father’s move to New York when his writing career finally began to garner recognition.

Kurt Vonnegut moved to New York in 1971, and soon after divorced his wife. They remained friends, but to Nanette Vonnegut, it was the end of an era both for her father’s personal life and for what she considered the best portion of his writing career.

“That’s where his formative writing time was: on the Cape,” she said.

Nanette Vonnegut said her favorite of her father’s works was “Slaughterhouse Five.”

“It’s a magic trick to me that he condensed something so traumatic in such short order,” she said. “It’s brilliant. It’s a masterpiece of condensing trauma into how he wrote around what happened to him.”

After a moment’s consideration, though, she said her favorite was probably just whichever novel he’d written the most recently.

But most of all, she said reflecting on seeing his manuscripts at the Lilly Libraryshows her that his talent was genuine, and his fame was born of hard work.

“He’s a good thing,” she said. “He’s a good thing in the world and a good force. He has staying power. I am very proud of him.”

hadn’t previously considered a judicial career, she was excited by the opportunity to influence how the judicial system works for families, she said.

She has always done civil cases, and for the past two years she has shared all the CHINS cases with Judge Stephen Galvin.

Even with her years of experience in family law, Hill said she is always learning in her judgeship.

“I don’t think anybody would ever want a judge who thought, ‘I know everything,’ because then you wouldn’t listen to the facts,” Hill said.

Throughout Hill’s life and career, these words from her mother, “You do what you have to do, and you do the best that you can,” have stuck with her and carried her through dif-

ficult times.

“There have been times in this job when I’ve thought, ‘This is too much’ — too busy, too many cases, cases sometimes feel too hard,” Hill said. “I always remember what my mother said.”

While family law, especially cases of neglect and abuse, can be complex and taxing, they can also be extremely rewarding, Hill said.

People often think kids don’t know what’s going on around them, she said, but she disagrees.

“When you’re in foster care, you know you’re in foster care,” Hill said.

“You either want to belong to them or you want to go home. Adoption for those kids is belonging.”

Adoptions are always joyful moments, and although Hill does not handle adoptions herself, she tries to attend adoptions for families she worked with in her

court to see the happy ending come to fruition.

Other times, the happy endings happen in her courtroom, when parents have received treatment and families are able to reunite.

Often, she said, these parents will thank her and the Department of Child Services for stepping in and helping their family.

“I think that’s been very positive to me to see that cycles can be broken,” Hill said.

In retirement, Hill plans to spend more time with her family, garden and volunteer around the community with her husband.

She also hopes to come back as a senior judge and have opportunities to do legal trainings, she said.

In 2019, Hill’s seat will be filled by Catherine Stafford, who is running unopposed in the general election this November.

25th annual Lotus Festival to occur this weekend

By Hannah Reed hanreed@iu.edu | @hannahreed13

The 25th annual Lotus World Music and Arts Festival will take place this weekend from Sept.

27 through Sept. 30.

The festival is one of the oldest world music festivals in the United States. Run by the Lotus Education and Arts Foundation, it brings more than 12,000 people into Bloomington, according to its website.

This year, the festival will kick-off with a performance by Uncle Earl, an American oldtime music group, along with opener Mamadou Kelly, a Malian musician, at 7 p.m. Sept. 27 at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.

Tickets for the show, and other weekend events are available

for purchase online.

There are 18 venues for Lotus activities, ranging from outdoor tents, family-friendly parks, churches and other spaces suited for "listening and contemplation," according to the website. There are 31 artists from all around the world set to play at the festival.

“There’s a salsa band from Puerto Rico that’s going to be performing at not only our evening stages but also at Lotus in the Park,” Sunni Fass, executive director, said. “With everything that’s happening with Puerto Rico right now, we’re really happy to be able to support some artists that are doing work there.”

There will be more than 40 hours of free events on festi-

val weekend, Fass said. This includes the Lotus in the Park event, which will begin at noon and last until 5 p.m. Saturday.

Lotus in the Park will include hands-on art making, familyfriendly activities, live music and artist workshops. In workshops, attendees are able to see the artist’s instruments up close, as well as talk to them.

Lotus selects “world-class performers who represent the highest standards of musicianship and professionalism,” according to its website. It presents a mix of performers, prioritizing the discovery of new music to attendees.

“Even if people aren’t getting into some of the deeper messages about cross-cultural relationships or anything like

that, it’s just amazing music,” Fass said. “It’s music that they may not encounter in any other context.”

Fass said for the festival, they begin planning as soon as the previous years' festival ends.

However, in terms of the 25th annual festival, it’s been in the back of Lotus organizers’ minds for a while.

“As far as the 25th anniversary, there have been some ideas that we’ve been putting in the hopper over the last couple of years,” Fass said. “There are a couple things that have been in the works for longer for this particular special event.”

Over the last 24 years, nearly 575 artists and ensembles have made their way to Bloomington to participate in the festival.

“It’s a chance to see something that would be in your brain ‘not normal’ for a small college town,” said Geoffrey Bradley, a member of the board of directors and a Lotus volunteer of over a decade. “You’d expect to see this in Chicago, Indy, Louisville, Cincinnati, St. Louis — but it’s here in Bloomington.”

Lotus will create a 10-block, pedestrian friendly perimeter near Kirkwood in downtown Bloomington, creating a space for musicians from places such as Ireland, Sweden, Somalia, India and more to perform.

“You love it,” Fass said about the music. “You just don’t know it yet.”

IU musician to release album next month

By Sarah Lloyd sadlloyd@iu.edu | @sxrxh99

Musician Noah Kankanala, a junior in game design, said songwriting is his way of communicating with others.

As a singer and songwriter, indie folk songs are his method of speaking his emotions.

Kankanala’s new album is set to be released mid-October and he said it’s full of Americana. His inspirations include “Heartbreaker” by Ryan Adams and “The Nashville Sound” by Jason Isbell.

“It’s the type of music where you have the instrumentation and the passion of rock ‘n’ roll and indie rock, and then you have the candid storytelling of folk,” Kankanala said.

His latest single, “Fleet,” expresses that indie folk vibe.

Released Aug. 31, the new single is available on Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play and more. Kankanala said for this album, he wanted to step away from SoundCloud and move toward more legitimate music platforms.

Kankanala will be releasing a new single with a softer tone, “Quiet Thoughts,” tentatively Friday. He said compared to “Fleet,” this song is more acoustic, with a peace-

ful feel to it. Jared O’Brien, a junior in audio engineering who works with Kankanala as an audio engineer and producer, helped add depth

to the single.

“For some reason, I really latched onto this song, and I had a big vision for it,” O’Brien said. “It’s very low-fi

and it feels raw, but it’s not just acoustic and vocals. It’s weird because it’s very overproduced, but I wanted it to still feel intimate.”

CULTURAL COMMENTS

‘Sierra Burgess is a Loser’ is the actual loser here Christine Fernando is a junior in journalism.

This is no “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before,” I promise.

As my friends and I settled in to watch the new Netflix flick “Sierra Burgess is a Loser,” we were excited. The movie had the perfect teen rom-com blueprint.

With a smart underdog female lead and Jamey, the jock with a sensitive side — played by the archetype of mathematical hotness and the internet’s newest obsession, Noah Centineo — the film had the makings of solid rom-com mediocrity.

It didn’t reinvent the wheel, but what’s not to love?

Apparently, a lot. And not just because of the cringeworthy text message exchanges.

The film’s first mistake is inherent in its premise.

When sensitive jock Jamey accidentally texts Sierra, who he thinks is mean girl Veronica, they forge a connection.

As the relationship expands to hours-long phone calls and teenage pining, Sierra doesn’t reveal who she really is, cat-fishing Jamey by pretending to be the beautiful, though less intelligent, Veronica. She even enlists the help of enemy-turned-friend Veronica to dupe Jamey in person.

Sierra’s manipulation, intended to be cute, robs Jamey of his right to the truth and tramples on his agency over his own choices. And while filmmakers could have offered discussion about the deception and its implications, there was nothing. The breach of trust hung in the air, treated like a flippant, endearing ruse rather than total disregard for consent and human decency.

But of course, manipulation is OK because of Sierra’s “nice girl” brand. If the roles were switched, and a popular mean girl or the male lead did the same actions, such behavior would be seen as despicable. Yet for the shy, awkward Sierra, it’s fine be-

For the other instruments featured in the new album, such as cello and drums, Jacobs School of Music students provided their skills.

O’Brien said he just let the students listen to the unfinished product and compose their own pieces of music to go along with it.

“For every one of the songs that we recorded for this album, I had demos that Noah had recorded himself, which really gave me a foundation to build upon,” O’Brien said. “I knew what sounds he was going for and what was in his head. I interpreted that into what I could see being a more cohesive, full album.”

Kankanala said the new album is full of his candid experiences growing up and becoming an adult.

“I wrote a lot of these songs in the past year, year and a half,” Kankanala said. “I wrote some of them during a breakup, so there’s a lot of themes of heartbreak, love, nostalgia and holding onto things. I try to be as honest and candid with the songs as possible.”

Kankanala’s new album featuring “Fleet” and “Quiet Thoughts” will drop in midOctober and will be available on streaming sites such as Spotify and Apple Music. He hasn’t come up with a title for it, though, because he said he wants it to come to him spontaneously.

Students learn stop-motion at Wells Library

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Shannon Purser arrives at the 69th Primetime Emmy Awards at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Sept.

17, 2017. Purser stars in the Netflix original movie, “Sierra Burgess is a Loser.”

cause she’s “nice.”

The situation is reminiscent of the “nice guys finish last” mantra that men use as reason to feel entitled to women, just because they don’t fit the philandering player trope and are convinced they are “nice.” Like these “nice guys,” Sierra, a “nice girl,” feels entitled to manipulating Jamey because she’s not the popular mean girl. And she feels no remorse.

When her deceit blows up in her face, she retreats to her bedroom and wallows in self-pity, using her insecurities about her appearance and place on the high school social ladder to justify her manipulation. Steeped in her selfish gloom, Sierra doesn’t begin to consider the effects of her actions on others.

The moment I stopped rooting for Sierra was the first kiss. In this scene, as Jamey and Veronica, pretending to be Sierra, lean in for a kiss, Sierra covers Jamey’s eyes and kisses him in Veronica’s place. It’s supposed to be a cute moment laced with humor, but it isn’t funny. It isn’t just high school shenanigans.

The moment is disturbing and completely disregards Jamey’s autonomy, framing

him as an object in Sierra’s personal journey rather than a person deserving of the basic decency of consent.

Even more jarring than her trickery with Jamey, Sierra betrays the one person who has been by her side throughout the movie — former mean girl Veronica.

While the sweet relationship between Sierra and Veronica is the one and only triumph of the film, Sierra taints it and justifies her actions with her insecurities. But insecurity and social standing doesn’t give anyone — whether they be a woman, a nerd or another brand of underdog — the permission to manipulate others.

Sierra’s happy ending is catalyzed by a song she writes, meant to be profound but is really a cheesy, woe-isme saga in which Sierra once again pities herself, even after all she does to harm the people around her. The ending doesn’t involve an ounce of accountability or remorse.

Another one of the film’s downfalls is the countless insults mocking transgender, gay and disabled people.

Sure, the playground taunts could be chalked up to behavior of immature high schoolers, or they could

be examples of the hurtful words people in these groups may have heard in high school hallways, thereby acknowledging their pain.

But the filmmakers don’t approach discussion about the insults and instead allow them to linger without commentary or context. As a result, the film unwittingly legitimizes gibes against minorities.

Shannon Purser, the actress who plays Sierra, argued the problematic components of the film make Sierra a flawed, interesting character. But, “that doesn’t mean that she is absolved of her actions,” Purser said in an interview with Elle magazine.

But the film does, in effect, absolve Sierra of her actions as characters forgive her without requiring apologies or remorse. The film seems to condone her behavior by not taking the time to comment on it or offer consequences for Sierra’s actions.

Sierra Burgess may not be a loser, but she’s mean, manipulative and cruel. That’s not the type of character I’ll be rooting for anytime soon. ctfernan@ius.edu

Saturday, Oct. 27 Located at Showers Common, just outside City Hall at 401 N. Morton

On Monday afternoon, people on campus were invited to create their own movies frame by frame.

When looking at an old film strip, the multiple frames that are visible cause the film to look animated when it’s projected.

The workshop is part of the Maker Mondays series at Wells Library that explores different crafts and activities for people of all skill levels.

Leanne Nay, a Digital Engagement Librarian, ran the workshop and helped people with their animations.

“I absolutely adore Maker Mondays, Leanne does an awesome job putting these together,” said Laura Hohman, IU Press production manager and School of Public and Environmental Affairs graduate student.

“There’s a really good variety of really cool maker stuff with a variety of technologies. They’re always fun and always really well done.”

The instructors at the workshop used a free stopmotion animation app called Stop Motion Studio to create short animated videos and GIFs. There were a plethora of materials for people to use in their videos, including Legos, coloring pages, feathers, magnets and pins.

Stop-motion animation is still used in movies today, including “Fantastic Mr. Fox,” “The Nightmare Before Christmas” and “Kubo and the Two Strings.” These 2 hour-long clips take a tremendous amount of time to create, but this workshop showed the basics to stopmotion that could create something amazing.

Nay created a short ex-

ample video for reference involving a coloring page of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. A sequence parts of the page being colored in was shown in the video, and then a speech bubble appeared with the words “I dissent!” written inside.

“I think it’s fun to show people how it works because it seems like this complicated process but it’s really simple,” Nay said. “I think once people actually make one for themselves then they can discover how it works and then go forth and make more.”

The app made creating the videos very simple. The user took captured frames using their phone’s camera, and then edited the frames after they were finished.

They could delete frames, and copy and paste frames to make a specific frame last longer in the final animation.

“I loved how the barrier to entry was so low. We came in knowing nothing and I’m walking away with a cute little video,” said Andrea Alumbaugh, an IU alumna who works as senior writer for the IU Foundation. “The app is free, bonus, and I could totally see myself actually doing this. Not only for fun but for work, since I work in marketing.”

Alumbaugh created a similar video to Nay’s example but used a coloring page of Dolly Parton instead. She used a tripod that was provided to keep her phone camera still as she changed the frames, and had blue construction paper on the table to act as a colorful backdrop.

Red flags raised by IU’s suspension of Ellison

L

ast month, IU released a statement that sophomore running back Morgan Ellison has been indefinitely suspended from all football activities.

However, the University refuses to say anything else about the matter.

IU is not exactly known for its great communication and student body safety, so while this doesn’t come as a surprise, the editorial board feels that IU needs to be completely transparent about disciplinary measures taken.

U has suspended athletes in the past, and press releases often included the reasoning, be it alcohol, drugs or misconduct. So when IU indefinitely suspends a player and refuses to say why, red flags are raised.

If IU had no issue releasing names and facts related to other players’ suspensions in the past, they cannot suddenly pass it off as a respect of privacy for Morgan Ellison. More so, the University ought to care about public safety of its student body more than it does about its reputation.

Last year when IU indefinitely

suspended Jordan Fuchs, they disclosed that he tested positive for anabolic steroids. If IU is open about its prime athletes being booted for drugs, there should be no reason to suddenly clam up about this instance.

When news like this breaks, people usually assume the worst.

Since IU will not release if this suspension was academic, drugs or drinking, it gives the uneasy feeling that it might be something more criminal.

In any case, IU is doing no favors to its reputation, its student body or its athletes.

If Ellison truly was not involved in anything more illicit than drinking or doing drugs, IU is dragging his name through the mud by not disclosing the reason for his dismissal. And if the suspension was punishment for some other behavior, not disclosing that information creates a hazard to public safety.

Without assuming anything about Ellison, we separately know that IU’s policies for sexual assault and Title IX are less than optimal.

The Indiana Daily Student conducted a yearlong investiga-

tion into IU’s sexual assault policies entitled The System, where more of this information can be found.

Separate from this issue of suspension, we have seen that students have felt unsafe at the school due to the University’s lack of transparency and cooperation with its students, specifically regarding sexual assault allegations and compliance with Title IX. Although IU has issued several formal statements condemning the acts of sexual assault, its actions leave much to be desired.

Just this past summer, IU student Ellie Johnson took to social media leading a campaign against the University after she felt it violated her Title IX rights.

Johnson’s story is among many others at IU, even for those who have not filed formal complaints. She organized the Shatter the Silence march, where about 100 students gathered in hopes of changing the way IU handles cases of sexual violence.

IU has received four separate complaints since 2014 about its Title IX practices which resulted in the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights investigat-

ing it. Although the university was cleared of all four complaints, that doesn’t erase the University’s past, or the fact that some students still think that these cases were mishandled.

There is also the question of IU Athletics in general. IU made the decision in 2017 to ban any athletes with a history of sexual or domestic violence, but this refers to students who have been convicted of these crimes, as opposed to those who have been accused.

In 2017, IU basketball alone made a revenue of almost $24 million. The total revenue for IU athletics was $106,139,192. Naturally, athletics are important here. It is easy to assume the school wants to protect the reputation of its athletic program, even if it comes at the cost of the reputations of the athletes.

IU athletes have been suspended for sexual violence and misconduct in the past. In 2016, football player Kiante Ellis was arrested for child molestation and immediately dropped from the team. In this case, since he was arrested, the information was released immediately by

the sheriff ’s department and many outside news sources.

If the student athlete in question is not arrested, perhaps it is impossible to find these details of what really happened.

We know that IU seldom chooses to divulge details that could tarnish its name and reputation, but this institution should consider making its student body a priority rather than the University’s appearance. There is a big difference between a student being suspended for a harmless infraction and endangering other students.

In the event that Ellison’s suspension was related to something more serious than run of the mill misconduct, not only is IU protecting its reputation, it appears that it is also treating its athletes with special privilege due to their pseudopublic figure status.

If the suspension is the result of common misconduct that does not endanger anyone else, then the University has a duty to put its student body at ease.

MATT-ER OF FACT

Bolton’s threats against the International Criminal Court are ridiculous Matthew Waterman is a senior in jazz studies, theater and history.

The selection of John Bolton for the position of National Security Advisor on April 9, 2018, was, to those familiar with his record of warmongering and extremism, one of the scariest moments of Trump’s presidency so far.

Earlier this month, he confirmed that notion in a fiery speech to the Federalist Society, a right-wing think tank in Washington, D.C. In the Sept. 10 speech, Bolton railed against the International Criminal Court, also known as the Hague.

The ICC is an international

tribunal that has been working to prosecute perpetrators of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity since 2003.

In his speech, Bolton made his stance on the ICC more than clear.

“We will not cooperate with the ICC.,” he said. “We will provide no assistance to the ICC. We will not join the ICC.” Bolton was responding to recent efforts by the ICC to investigate the United States for alleged war crimes in Afghanistan. The ICC prosecutor has applied to investigate allegations against U.S. forces, the CIA and the Afghan military, in addition to the Taliban and

its affiliated forces.

The U.S. has been unwilling to fully cooperate with the ICC from the start. The U.S. was one of only seven countries to vote against the Rome Statute, the statute that mandated the creation of the court, in 1998. Legislation passed and signed under the Bush administration explicitly prohibited the U.S. government from cooperating with the court.

Bolton is merely making the U.S.’s obstruction of the ICC more overt.

“We will let the ICC die on its own,” he said. “After all, for all intents and purposes, the ICC is already dead to us.”

It’s no surprise that a war-

mongering, right-wing, nationalist like Bolton doesn’t accept the principle that the U.S. should be held accountable for international law. But Bolton also apparently believes Israel, and presumably other U.S. allies, need to be protected from prosecution.

Bolton used the speech to announce that in response to Palestinian attempts to get the ICC to investigate Israel for alleged war crimes, the Trump administration will close down the Washington office of the Palestine Liberation Organization. The PLO, recognized by virtually the entire world as the legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, will now have no

diplomatic base in the U.S. “There has also been a suggestion that the ICC will investigate Israeli construction of housing projects on the West Bank,” Bolton said.

As if there is anything remotely surprising or controversial about that.

Israel’s colonies in the West Bank, an occupied Palestinian territory, are unambiguously seen by almost the whole world as violations of the Fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits transferring civilian populations to occupied territory. The scandal is not that the ICC might theoretically investigate Israel for them; the scandal is that it hasn’t already.

John Bolton threatened to sanction ICC judges and prosecutors simply for doing their jobs. He vowed to ban them from the country and even prosecute them in U.S. criminal court if they dare investigate the actions of the U.S. military or CIA. The ICC does have its flaws, most notably that only one of its past investigations has been into crimes outside Africa. But that’s why a possible investigation into the U.S. and the Afghan government is promising. The ICC should proceed to do its job, unhindered by John Bolton’s threats. matwater@iu.edu

HENLEY’S HOT TAKE

People working service-industry jobs deserve customers’ respect Carson Henley is a sophomore in media.

I’m 17 years old and in Steak ‘n Shake, just before midnight. I look over at the long table that’s just been left by a large group of sophomores. The aftermath of their outing is a wreck, and I feel a pang of sympathy as I think of how little they probably tipped.

I’m 18 years old and behind an adult woman in line.

She’s being difficult, which is inevitable at times. She’s also being rude, which is the easiest fix of all time. She’s talking to the girl working

like her minimum wage job makes her responsible for the franchise. I get restless, but I don’t know what to do.

So I stand there, wait my turn and smile a lot. I try to seem incredibly satisfied with my customer service when it’s my turn.

I’m 19 and receive exceptional customer service and have every intention of filling out the online survey to make it known — and get a free entree with my next purchase — until the receipt is lost in the shuffle of my purse and fades to a dot in my hectic life.

Service people are people.

Even on the clock, they’re human beings. They deserve respect, even while they’re earning minimum wage — especially while they’re earning minimum wage.

When you’re rude to a service person, you’re being rude to someone who cannot fight back. You’re being rude to someone who cannot defend themself, who has to keep their mouth shut and a smile on their face in the hopes of receiving $7.25 an hour, a low wage for a high price.

Tone is important. Tips are important. Taking responsibility is important.

Sometimes it’s not what you say, but how you say it.

Keeping a smile on your face for the singular time you pay is a lot easier than it is for the waiter who has to keep their smile on all night. Service jobs require immense emotional labor in exchange for little capital.

Tipping is not optional.

If you cannot afford to tip decently, you cannot afford to eat out. Pay it forward. A good tip can turn a bad night around.

Don’t leave your table looking like a war zone.

Don’t leave food on the booth. Don’t hide items on

the wrong side of the store because you’re too lazy to walk them back to where they belong. Be responsible for yourself.

You will see people ruin other people’s days. It’s a fact of life. Try to turn it around.

Compliment service people.

Ask them how they’re doing.

Leave a generous tip. Report good service on online surveys or to the manager. Don’t be purposelessly difficult.

Split the check via Venmo if you can. Organize the dishes and trash at your table before you go. Say thank you.

Take care of your mess, tip well and converse with any

service person with the same conscientiousness you’d have visiting a friend at work.

If you wouldn’t be conscientious, reevaluate.

I’m nearly 20 years old, and I stack the plates at the table before I stand up to leave. I tip well, and I smile and thank my waiter. I tell them I hope they have a good night.

I cannot save them from the chaos of food service, of every angry adult, of every dropped plate and lowball tip. But I have made an effort, and that is something. cehenley@iu.edu

Bradley blooms with Lotus for over a decade with them is what managed to keep him there. He said he enjoys working the artist shuttle, which allows him to pick up and talk to U.S. and international artists.

Bradley gets a standard, three-row style van and a walkie-talkie to shuttle around the artists. A majority of the job is picking people up at their hotels and bringing them to their venues.

“I like driving with the artists and I like the people I work with,” Bradley said.

“I’ve done a couple of other jobs and I’ve liked all my jobs, but this is the one I always gravitate toward.”

Often, the artists are on the road for the better half of weeks of months, Bradley said, so they always have something interesting to say about their lives. They will sometimes ask him what he thinks of Bloomington or what he thinks of the festival.

“The artists always have different ranges of personalities, but they’re always entertaining and engaging to talk to, many of which never have been to Bloomington” Bradley said. “It’s kind of fun to be in the vehicle talking to them.”

Lotus offers volunteers of the Lotus Festival a ticket in exchange for their work.

Bradley said because he volunteers for the festival, he hasn’t paid for a ticket to get in for over a decade.

By Hannah Reed hanreed@iu.edu | @hannahreed13

As the Lotus World Music and Arts Festival enters its 25th year, Geoffrey Bradley, IU alumnus and felony deputy prosecutor at Monroe County Prosecutor’s Office, enters his first year on the Lotus board of directors after over a decade of volunteer service.

The Lotus Festival is run by the Lotus Education and Arts Foundation, a nonprofit organization based in Bloomington, and attracts more than 12,000 people each fall, according to its website. Lotus Festival consists of four to five days of music and arts from around the globe and has had artists participate from over 120 countries.

“I’ve been volunteering roughly since 2004-ish, with some time out, but you know, at least over a decade working with it,” Bradley said. “It’s a great chance to hear international music, U.S. and international artists, that you probably wouldn’t even have come across.”

After repeatedly volunteering, Bradley made his way onto the board of directors. The foundation has a staff and a board that does general oversight and works with part-time and full-time staff, while also dealing with things such as reviewing financials and general guidance, Bradley said.

The music was what originally drew Bradley in, but the people and volunteering
