Sorority prolongs eviction notice

IDS

By Larmie Sanyon lsanyon@indian.edu | @LarmieSanyon

As the eviction deadline for the Delta Omicron chapter of Delta Delta Delta at IU approached Sunday evening, there wasn’t much movement in the house. The 5 p.m. deadline came and went, and the house stayed occupied.

The national organization revoked the chapter’s charter March 4, and the chapter received an eviction notice March 27 from the national chapter requesting members move out of the house by 5 p.m. Sunday. The exact details of the email were only sent to members of the chapter.

The Tri Delt national chapter said the IU chapter’s charter was revoked for “activities that do not represent our high standards or align with Tri Delta’s Purpose – activities that also violated the chapter’s previous probation terms.”

When Sunday came, there were no moving vans or parents in sight.

There was no yelling, beeping trucks or crying sorority members.

Instead, the parking lot was full of cars but not people.

The eviction was postponed after Tri Delt parents hired an Indianapolis attorney and law firm to represent the chapter in court March 29. The Tri Delt chapter sued its national organization and housing corporations.

The chapter went to court in hopes of receiving a restraining order on its nationals, which would overturn the IU chapter’s eviction.

The case was overseen by Judge Frances G. Hill in Bloomington who ruled in favor of the chapter Thursday.

Hill ruled that the Tri Delt national organization had to stand down and refrain from any and all efforts to evict the chapter members from the property at 818 E. 3rd St. for a period of no less than 14 days.

After this period the parties have to return to court for further arguments regarding eviction. The chapter will most likely appear in court April 15 due to a court holiday. The IU chapter’s lawyer, Peter French, could not be reached for comment.

A living legacy Iris Rosa plans retirement, final show with African American Dance Company

ris Rosa has seen the growth of the African American Dance Company.

Rosa graduated from IU with a master of science in dance in 1974, and immediately afterward approached Herman Hudson, founder of the then Department of Afro-American Studies, about the possibility of taking on the director role in the new ensemble.

She has been teaching the class and leading the group from the year it was established.

“We do have all types of students in the ensembles — the dance company is ethnically diverse — but our focus still is the lived experiences of the black diaspora in the U.S. and abroad,” Rosa said. “We’ve been able to exist and be part of that fabric of Indiana University, and I think that’s very commendable.”

Rosa will retire this May from her positions as director of undergraduate studies for the Department of African American & African Diaspora Studies and the African American Dance Company. The company’s final spring show with Rosa as director will take place starting at 8 p.m. Saturday at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.

Rosa said the University has physically changed in a variety of ways during her more than 40 years on campus, including an influx of more students, but the importance of African American and African diaspora studies has been a consistent presence.

“Dr. Herman Hudson was the first chairperson of the department and from then on it’s been existing for practically 50 years now,” Rosa said. “That, I think, is a really big accomplishment, that black studies has been part of

As part of the African American Arts Institute, also championed by Hudson, the African American Dance Company and other ensembles operate as a means to share complex ideas through the medium of dance.

As director of both the undergraduate studies department and the company, Rosa said she works out of two offices and wears two different hats, though there are inter-

sections between responsibilities including a good deal of maneuvering between students and staff.

“When you’re in the artistic space — which is the institute, I teach there and choreograph and rehearse there, prepare everything for concerts and other types of events and activities — you have to put that creative hat on,” she said. “I wear the other hat in the department and it’s another way of maneuvering the academic responsibilities in my office in Ballantine. It’s really a balance I need to keep.”

Hannah Crane, communications director for the institute and former student of Rosa’s, said the company has flourished in no small part because of the director’s drive and dedication, and she and many others working with Rosa still have not come to terms with the idea that she is leaving.

“She’ll be heavily missed for many reasons, for me personally she truly is like a mother,” Crane said. “I consider her part of my family, that’s what’s really so beautiful about African American Dance Company in particular. It is a family and she’s the reason for that.”

In December 2016, the African American Dance Company traveled to Beijing to participate in a dance-driven cultural exchange.

The previous year, the group attended a conference in Jamaica.

“It’s only been in the last couple of years the dance company has been able to expand beyond borders, and professor Rosa is the reason for that,” Crane said. “It’s truly been an honor for me to be a part of that evolution and see her legacy, her dance company, grow beyond what we thought it would be.

She always knew there was that potential.”

Hoosiers win in walk-off fashion against Cardinals

Brittany Sater lost blood faster than doctors and nurses at Bloomington Hospital could put it back in her. Her hands had to be restrained to stop her from pulling out the tube in her throat so she could tell her mother about the man who shot her.

The prosecution presented a timeline leading up to Sater’s death in its opening statement. It was the first day of the trial against Johnny T. Moore, the man the state claims ordered Sater’s murder. Moore, whom the prosecution portrays as a scorned heroin and meth dealer who became resentful after Sater refused to buy from him, is being charged with felony murder, robbery and burglary.

The state told the jury a story about Moore, a woman named Billie Jean Edison, identified only as B.J., and Dennis Webb, who allegely shot Sater with an SKS assault rifle.

The defense tried to discredit Edison’s character by citing her shifting story of the night.

“This case is about blame shifting. The government’s key and critical witness will weave a story to save his own skin,” said Glen Koch, Moore’s defense lawyer.

Four witnesses were called for SEE MURDER, PAGE 4

Sophomore utility player Matt Lloyd had gone five games without driving in a run for the Hoosiers.

He didn’t let it get to six.

Lloyd had an RBI in two separate at-bats tonight, but his second decided the game.

With two balls, two strikes and two outs in the bottom of the 11th inning, Lloyd smacked a walk-off home run to right field and proceeded to flip his bat, trot around the bases and jump into a sea of teammates surrounding home plate to celebrate IU’s 3-2 extra-innings victory against Ball State.

Perched next to the opening of the dugout, sophomore starting pitcher Tim Herrin was eager for IU, 15-11-2, to pick up the victory against Ball State, 11-18, and end the Hoosiers’ four-game winless streak.

“I was in the dugout where the opening is so I could run out if something happened and that was awesome,” said Herrin, who gave up one run on three hits in four innings Tuesday night. “That’s just great baseball. Matt Lloyd has been the guy for us the last couple weeks.

It’s just awesome to see. It was a long game that tested us. Baseball’s going to test you, but it’s how you respond, and we did a good job.”

Ball State had five. Neither team recorded a hit after the eighth inning until Lloyd’s home run three innings later.

and served up a two-out RBI single up the middle to plate Miller and give IU an early 2-0 lead.

The Hoosiers wouldn’t push another run across until Lloyd’s home run, his third hit of the ballgame, in the 11th.

“That was an impressive swing,” IU Coach Chris Lemonis said of Lloyd’s homer. “We’ve been struggling a little bit. To come up and get a clutch swing like that is huge.”

With bases loaded in the top of the eighth, Lloyd was called to the mound and delivered with a

Ricker’s fights to continue selling cold beer in store

CODY THOMPSON | IDS

Lexi Heinemann, co-chair of Culture of Care, accepts written responses to sexual education trivia questions Tuesday evening at the Comedy & Trivia Night ft. the University tWits & Awkward Silence event. Culture of Care encourages healthy habits, raises awareness and educates students on wellness topics throughout the week.

Culture of Care leader Q&A

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

Culture of Care Week, is a student-led intitative designed to help students get involved to promote awareness of mental health, sexual well-being and more. Cochair Lexie Heinemann, a senior studying cinema and media arts, spoke to the Indiana Daily Student about what to expect from the week.

Athlete Chris Mosier, the first openly transgender athlete to compete for the a United States team will be speaking at 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Whittenberger Auditorium as part of the week’s events.

IDS: What is the purpose of Culture of Care Week?

Heinemann: Culture of Care Week basically is a response to why our initiative got started in the first place.

Culture of Care is a student-led and staff-supported initiative on campus designed to raise awareness for bystander awareness. Within the Culture of Care, we have four focus areas: mental health, sexual well-being, respect and drug and alcohol awareness. Culture of Care Week was designed to raise awareness over who we are and what we do. We got our start back in 2011 after a lot of events happened on campus where people weren’t really

OK with it. It was a turning point.

Culture of Care Week was founded to convince students to have the courage to care.

Each day of the week is assigned a focus area. Monday is mental health awareness, Tuesday is sexual well-being, Wednesday is respect, and Thursday is drug and alcohol awareness.

It ranges all week?

Heinemann: There is usually something on Friday, but whether it takes a direct or passive form kind of fluctuates from year to year.

Can you tell me a bit about Chris? What is he bringing to Culture of Care Week?

Heinemann: Chris Mosier is the first out trans-man that is on Team USA. He is a triathlete, but he competes in duathlons.

In the sports community there is not a lot of support for LGBT athletes. There are stipulations with trans-athletes competing in their sports because the issue is their physical sex doesn’t match with how they identify.

So we’re bringing Chris in to talk about tailoring to create your own sense of Culture of Care wherever you are. You don’t have to be on a college campus. When you graduate or go somewhere new, you should still have that mindset.

Chris will speak on his experience as an athlete and things that have challenged him through the years.

It’s mainly focused on that, and it kind of falls under on the respect day for that reason because we talk about discrimination and hazing and supporting each others’ sexuality, which kind of ties into sexual well-being. The focus areas all kind of flow back into each other.

Why should students get engaged with Culture of Care Week?

Heinemann: For starters, it shouldn’t just be for the week, it should be something that you want to practice in your everyday life. I think it’s important that Hoosiers demonstrate that this place can be a second home to you, and you can have a family away from your family.

It doesn’t have to be a grand gesture, it’s just something that you should want to do. It shouldn’t be a second thought, it can be a natural reaction.

Why is it important to have an entire week for Culture of Care?

Heinemann: For a few reasons. For starters, it helps raise awareness on who we are, what we do and that we do have a presence throughout the year. While Culture of Care Week is our biggest

CHRIS MOSIER 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Whittenberger Auditorium event, we do a lot of partnerships and internal events.

Two, it also helps wrap the semester up quite nicely.

We always host Culture of Care week about two to three weeks before Little Five because we all know of drinking incidents and other stuff.

It helps kind of remind students of healthy habits before finals.

In terms of the entire week, it gives each focus area their own full day to be present. A lot of our events are scattered throughout the year. To have the entire week is nice for us to celebrate what we put in, but it also feels good to see students stop by the tables and participate in what we have been working on.

The messaging is more consistent when you do it in a burst like this.

I think it is really meaningful to have a week devoted to it because it shows how important it is.

The weather is occasionally clearing up, and rain or shine, I think it’s important for students to see that Culture of Care. Our goal ultimately one day is to have everyone on campus know who we are, what we do and how they can be a part of it.

INDIANAPOLIS — A food truck handing out free burritos with a long line of lunch-goers stretching down the sidewalk formed the backdrop for a Tuesday press conference outside the Statehouse.

People began to trickle up to the truck window, and reporters set up their cameras before the podium where Jay Ricker, chairman of Ricker’s convenience stores, was about to speak. Tunes like “Billie Jean” by Michael Jackson floated from the truck before the press conference began.

The food truck, Ricker said, was the original inspiration for the company’s new food concept — in-store Tex-Mex restaurants. In the past week, Republican lawmakers have been scrambling to close a loophole in state law that allowed Ricker’s to sell cold beer, which it had begun to do at its Columbus, Indiana, and Sheridan, Indiana, locations. The stores, which would otherwise only be able to sell un-chilled alcohol, obtained restaurant alcohol permits so they could legally employ their new business strategy.

The press conference came the day after a House committee voted to allow Ricker’s to continue to sell the cold beer — that is, until its two current licenses expire next January, at which time the stores will likely not meet new renewal requirements, Ricker said.

The House Public Policy Committee rapidly addressed the loophole after Columbus and Sheridan Ricker’s locations opened up their restaurants by adding an amendment to an already-existing bill. Last week, a Senate committee passed a similar measure.

Ricker said he was disappointed and frustrated with the outcome of Tuesday’s committee hearing.

“We had complied with the law,” Ricker said. “The liquor lobby just has such a hold on some legislators.”

Ricker said the measure would require that 30 percent

Seattle sues over executive order to ban sanctuary cities

By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman

Here’s a rundown of what President Donald Trump and the U.S. government have done this week and why it matters.

Seattle sues President Trump Seattle has filed a lawsuit against Trump’s executive order on “sanctuary cities.” Seattle called the order “fatally ambiguous” and unconstitutional, according to NPR. The term sanctuary city refers to states or cities with policies in place that limit involvement in federal immigrant enforcement. The Trump administration has argued that these states and cities should collect the citizenship status

of sales come from in-store alcohol consumption if Ricker’s stores wish to continue to sell cold carryout alcohol.

Not only will this likely prevent Ricker’s from renewing its license, he said, but it may also cause problems for other restaurants across the state not able to meet that 30-percent mark.

“I think it was a rush to judgement,” Ricker said at the press conference. “They really need to take a pause.”

Ricker said he’d agree to keep the spirits off the stores’ shelves if the legislature agreed to a very public and open summer study committee to address the issue thoroughly.

He said he doesn’t want to see this issue end up in court, and he hopes legislators will listen to their constituents, whom he claimed have overwhelmingly told him they’re frustrated with action taken in the Statehouse this past week.

Sen. Phil Boots, R-Crawfordsville, also spoke at the conference Tuesday. He said he hopes this incident will lead to a rewriting of what many refer to as Indiana’s byzantine alcohol laws.

“I just would note that the state of Indiana is the only state in the nation that regulates the temperature of beer at any of their facilities when they’re selling it,” Boots said.

Indiana is also known for its other strict alcohol regulations, such as one that prohibits its sale on Sundays.

The legislature has been in session for three months now and much of the legislation being considered today has been thoroughly vetted, Boots said. But this fix, he said, seems rushed.

“This has not been thought through at all,” Boots said.

While the two spoke at the podium, the clock ticked closer to lunchtime and the line of customers waiting for their free burritos lengthened.

“We want people to know this is a great food,” said Ricker, gesturing at the truck.

He said the burrito truck took a year and a half to launch.

“Do take advantage of the burritos,” he said smiling.

of all residents and report this information to the federal government.

“The order is premised on a misreading of federal statutory law and departs dramatically from settled constitutional principles,” said the lawsuit, filed by Seattle Mayor Ed Murray and City Attorney Pete Holmes.

The suit challenges the constitutionality of the executive order, which threatens to withhold federal grants from sanctuary cities. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said in a news briefing the order, which Trump signed in January, will “strip federal grant money from the sanctuary states and cities that harbor illegal immigrants.”

EDITORIAL BOARD

Comparison is no excuse for discrimination Majoring in supply chain management and business analytics, sophomore Simone Siew says it sometimes feels like she never leaves the Kelley School of Business.

Despite this, she is also pursuing minors in English and the history of the arts, which combines art and music history, and is very passionate about her humanities background.

Siew feels pressured to prove her individuality when people try to define her as merely a business student.

As a Chinese-American woman whose parents immigrated to the United States from Malaysia, she is familiar with the sting of carelessly reductive stereotypes.

In what “Bad Feminist” author Roxane Gay refers to as the “oppression Olympics,” there is the notion that disenfranchised groups compete with one another to compare the magnitude of their negative social experiences, and Siew says she feels Asian-Americans are often pushed to the bottom of the ridiculous hierarchy such comparisons create.

These oppression Olympics make it hard for people to remember that we can just treat everyone well to begin with.

“It’s a really weird perspective to have as a person of color, but since Asian people are considered a model minority, people don’t see the implications and problematic path their stereotypes could take us down,” Siew said. “People will say ‘you guys aren’t really oppressed because you’re all doctors and you make a lot of money,’ but they’re still automatically assuming something based on my race.”

Life as a model minority, a group of people perceived to achieve more than the average population, means having your achievements turned into reasons to mock you and receiving praise for blending in and distancing yourself from your heritage, all while being told that your experiences are insignificant or even that you should be grateful to be treated this way.

“I never really wanted to learn about my culture when I was younger because I wanted to feel normal and I

didn’t want to be connected to all the stereotypes,” Siew said. “So many times in high school, even my closest friends would ask me if I could see out of my eyes or say that I was good at math, so those stereotypes had to be true.”

It’s hard to feel like you belong when others are constantly emphasizing your differences in a negative light, and the representation of those differences in the media only creates offensive caricatures that reinforce discriminatory expectations.

“One thing I always notice especially when I’m hanging out with friends is that they don’t notice the lack of representation in pop culture, or when they do see representation they don’t notice how racist it usually is,” Siew said.

Because minimal or unfair representation does stand out to her, she doesn’t get to experience the feeling of compelling connection to television, film and literature that makes such art forms so valuable. Because she’s a model minority, she’s told she doesn’t have the right to be upset about this issue.

Comparison of discriminatory experiences implies that human beings have a finite supply of empathy and must therefore ration it according to whom we feel has suffered the most, which could not be more counterproductive to progress toward acceptance of diversity and racial equality. We say that these goals are impossible ideals, but we limit ourselves when we focus on the oppression Olympics and forget it is possible to treat everyone well regardless of which groups we feel deserve the most attention.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Reflecting on methods for improvement, Siew emphasized commitment to awareness and active efforts.

“You have to pay attention to race and how people portray each other,” Siew said. “I’ve had to make adjustments myself, but the most important thing is to just try.” mareklei@umail.iu.edu

Cops don’t need lethal drones When it comes to law enforcement, non-lethal drones are superior We’re living in the age of information and automation, and many technological advancements have created ethical questions for which the answers are not easy. Costbenefit analyses are tricky when dealing with changes for which comparable historical examples are not available.

Drones are an ethically questionable invention, and even more so in the hands of cops. Connecticut is currently trying to sort out those challenges as a bill that would authorize police usage of lethally armed drones passes through a round of initial consideration. The Editorial Board doesn’t believe that police need these deadly drones.

The Judiciary Committee of the state senate in Connecticut approved the bill with a 34-7 vote March 29, and the bill now awaits the scheduling of a debate and a vote in the House. The portion of the bill relating to law enforcement is actually an amendment to a

law involving a ban on citizen use of weaponized drones, which the state government has been considering without resolution for two years.

The idea of police drones armed with lethal weapons make us think of Orwellian government oversight, and the Editorial Board certainly has issues with the significant potential for misuse of these drones.

In light of that potential, our perspective on the proper incorporation of drones into law enforcement involves a few specifications that we feel prioritize citizens’ safety.

We think it’s important that officers would be required to obtain a warrant before using a drone, but we were concerned about the exception the bill allowed for emergency circumstances.

While it might seem like an obvious benefit that drones could be used to keep officers safe when handling situations such as a shooter on

campus, the Editorial Board is not convinced that drones would necessarily eliminate mistakes that could harm innocent people.

Such mistakes would make operator accountability an essential component of drone use. Storing the video collected while using drones would ensure that officers are kept responsible for the decisions they make with such deadly equipment, and this provision should be a cornerstone of any drone programs.

Furthermore, the Editorial Board does not see the necessity of drone weapons being lethal. North Dakota, for example, passed a bill in 2015 allowing drones to be equipped with rubber bullets, stun guns and tear gas, and we feel that these measures ought to be sufficient for subduing criminals if used effectively.

The Farmington, Connecticut, Police Department

Chief Paul Melanson told CNN that “no one is looking for law enforcement to arm drones for offensive purposes,” and that their primary purpose will be to defuse bombs or disarm drones used by terrorists or other criminals.

If that is indeed the extent of armed drone usage, we find this to be a reasonable strategy to avoid unnecessary harm to officers.

Ethical use of weaponized drones should value an increase in citizens’ safety over a decrease in risks taken by officers, which leads the Editorial Board to favor nonlethal weapons and to support the non-offensive approach promoted by supporters of the bill.

The specifics of this bill, if it succeeds, could set a precedent for other states to follow in the future, and it’s important that we have our priorities straight.

Cut down on food waste

Millennials don’t need to rush to get married

About one third of all the food produced in the world every year is lost or wasted. In the United States and other wealthy countries this number is even larger according to the US Department of Agriculture.

To put this into a different perspective, for every two meals eaten, one entire serving ends up in the trash.

This rate of food waste creates numerous inefficiencies within our society, and more needs to be done to combat this issue.

First and foremost, these high levels of food waste should never be able to occur while food insecurity exists. No one should have to starve when nearly 40 percent of the U.S.’s annual food production is wasted.

Secondly, food loss leads to excessive resource waste.

Everything from water, land, energy, capital and labor work toward creating food that ultimately will serve no purpose.

When food is wasted, so are resources – about $680 billion is lost across industrialized countries from food waste yearly according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN. As one of the wealthiest countries and home to the most billionaires, the U.S. needs to take a more active stance in opposition to wasting food. If made a priority, actual progress toward food security for all can be made.

American families will no longer go hungry while their neighbors feast.

It is important to remain realistic. A 100 percent reduction of food waste will never happen. Spoilage will

always occur, food will always go half-eaten at restaurants, and the problem will always somewhat persist.

This does not mean that we cannot be better.

To begin to cut back on our food waste, we need to change the way the average grocery store, and its customers, operates.

A large part of food waste comes directly from grocery stores’ excessive quality standards and customers’ proclivity to purchase “pretty” foods. At the end of a week millions of dollars of food across the country are sent to a landfill because it has reached a best-by date, or because the produce appeared ugly. This food can still be eaten.

Instead of going from shelf to landfill, grocery stores need to follow in the steps of supermarkets like Trader Joe’s. Trader Joe’s takes this food not fit to sell but fit to consume and donates it all to local food banks.

Whole Foods does something similar and has pledged a goal to become a zero waste store.

Consumers need realize how big of a problem food waste really is. Americans with the choice should vote with their dollar and shop at stores like Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods when available. Changing supermarket waste practices is the first step needed to combat the growing problem of food waste. sareynol@umail.iu.edu

Millennials: the generation of controversy. Some see us as the generation of innovation and change while others see us as a generation of self-righteous, tech-obsessed narcissists.

One thing I think both sides might agree on is that we are the generation of breaking away from tradition, and there’s no exception when it comes to the idea of marriage.

This is not a bad thing by any means.

According to the publication “Love and Marriage” by D’Vera Cohn at the Pew Research Center, the median age for getting married was 25 for men and 22 for women in the early 1980s. In contrast to that, in 2011 the median age rose to a record high of 29 for men and 27 for women.

Men and women are getting married later and later, and what older generations don’t seem to understand is it

is not necessarily a bad thing.

Maybe a reason why younger people are hesititant about marriage is because roughly 40-50 percent of all marriages ending in divorce according to the American Psychological Association. It’s daunting to play those odds.

Millennials should not be persecuted for choosing not to participate in a union that fails nearly half of the time.

Aside from divorce, millennials also want to be more financially stable before taking the leap into a marriage.

A 2014 article by the New York Times says that 27 percent of unmarried millennials said they weren’t married because they didn’t feel that they were financially stable enough to support another person.

Unless a couple decided to elope, weddings can be extremely expensive. Depending on the number of

guests, the average cost of a wedding in the Bloomington area is $10,338.50, which is actually much lower than the national average of $26,645.

Even with a lower average, the cost of a wedding is outrageous. While older generations might have been willing to spend their savings on a fancy wedding, many millennials don’t want to throw down that type of money without being financially secure first.

Another factor that seems to play a large role in delaying marriage is the desire to have the career and job placement that you want before settling down with another person. Whether this is waiting until after graduate school or waiting until you get that promotion you want, my generation seems to be rightfully more concerned with feeling fulfilled in our academic and work lives outside

Katie Meier is a senior in journalsim.

of what our partner may be doing.

Not finding the right person, income and being married and then divorced previously are all factors that millennials are taking into consideration when deciding not to tie the knot or at least holding off for a little while.

Older generations seem to be pushing millennials to get married now because it was the way that their generation did it and the generation before them, but this is a generation of breaking tradition.

Âť RETIRE

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Rosa said the highlight of teaching for her has been when she receives word from alumni about the ways their lives have changed during their time in the company.

Just recently, she received an email from a former student who is now a practicing lawyer and still thinks about her time in the company. “Whatever they were going through in their college years, the dance company was a space where they could express themselves — through movement, through conversation — that really warms my heart,� Rosa said. “You never know how you’re affecting students until they articulate it to you so to see that growth is incredible.�

is one thing Rosa said she hopes her successor in the dance company role takes into consideration.

Though she will not be working through the University after this semester, Rosa said she will continue to dance throughout the community and spread her passion for celebrating arts in African American and African diaspora communities. “I’ve always worked in the community, so this will give me more time to work with alumni who have created youth dance companies,� Rosa said. “I’ll be able to work with some of the theaters I’ve always worked with, I’ll just have more time to spend in their spaces and continue my travel and research in dance.�

Crane said the legacy Rosa leaves at IU exists not just in the dance com-

pany and all of the accolades Rosa has received as a dancer, but in the impression she has been able to leave with students.

Joining the African American Dance Company during her junior year changed Crane’s life and influenced her choice in career. She said she looks forward to seeing the group grow and flourish and for people to grow more aware of all that the dance company and the institute have to offer. “I met professor Rosa halfway through my college career, but that transformed the course of my future and my worldview and how I interact with people,� she said. “When we say legacy, yes there’s the tangible dance company, but the legacy is what she’s instilled in her students that continues all throughout the country and COURTESY PHOTO around the world.�

of last year, the night of the murder. The video showed Sater collapsed on her neighbors’ porch, blood smeared on the door and pooling on the porch, as she moaned in pain and begged Burns to take care of her dog, Harley.

Burns said he followed Sater’s ambulance to the hospital but she was unconscious by the time they ar-

rived, so he could not question her further.

Sater’s neighbor Elke Pessl, an academic adviser at IU, said she saw a dark SUV and a silhouetted woman out her kitchen window before Sater began screaming.

Pessl’s husband called Sater’s home landline and reached her grandmother, who alerted Sater’s mother and father.

Sater’s mother, Deanna Hawkins, cried as she recounted standing at her daughter’s head during the surgery to save her life. “I asked her, ‘Did Nephew shoot you? Did Money shoot you? Did Memphis shoot you? Did B.J. shoot you?’�

Hawkins said. Sater shook her head no to all but hesitated at the mention of B.J.,

who came to her house with the then-unknown shooter. “Nephew� is known otherwise as Johnny Moore.

Elliott Jordan, the second BPD officer called by the prosecution, testified that he and two other officers cleared Sater’s house after arriving on the scene.

Her purse and phone were missing, two rings had been

taken, and her safe was open with a few bills stuck in the door. He also found crack cocaine in the house.

Sater died at 9:46 a.m. the same day, almost exactly nine hours after she was shot. “I went in and just held her,� Hawkins said.

Moore’s trial continues through this week.

IU leans on Herrin in mid-week win

By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu @TaylorRLehman

In three of IU’s last four mid-week games, there’s been one starting pitcher the Hoosiers have been able to lean on the most — sophomore Tim Herrin.

It was much of the same from IU Coach Chris Lemonis, who trotted out his latest mid-week arm Tuesday evening against in-state foe Ball State. Herrin pitched four strong innings and allowed three hits and one earned run and struck out four batters.

Freshman Cal Krueger surrendered a 1-run lead in the eighth inning, but sophomore designated hitter Matt Lloyd picked up the Hoosier staff and knocked an 11th-inning walk-off home run over the right field wall to notch IU’s first win in five games, 3-2.

“I thought he was good,” Lemonis said about Herrin.

“It wasn’t as clean as I’d like, but we’ve been talking all year — he’s a work in progress. He’s going to be really, really good.”

Considering his start against Cincinnati was after relieving sophomore ace Jonathan Stiever on a scheduled one-inning outing for the ace, Herrin has started three mid-week games in the last three weeks and averages 4.1 innings pitched, three hits allowed and just more than one run scored per game.

Not only did he stay true to those numbers in his start Tuesday night, but the sophomore struck out his second-most batters

Sophomore pitcher Tim Herrin starts the Hoosiers off Tuesday evening in their game against Ball State. IU beat Ball State, 3-2.

in a start this season with four. He didn’t make many batters miss on swings.

They just didn’t make solid contact.

He didn’t allow a home run, nor has he since Feb. 25 against Florida Atlantic.

However, the sophomore’s walks are what Lemonis said he’d like to see Herrin reduce.

The starter walked three Cardinals on Tuesday. Two of those walks were leadoff batters that eventually made their way into scoring position, and the third advanced a runner into

scoring position. None of them scored, but the jams increased Herrin’s pitch count, which has commonly forced Lemonis to turn to his bullpen earlier than he’d like when Herrin starts.

“He’s just figuring out how to put away hitters and how not to mess around sometimes,” Lemonis said.

“I thought we pitched well all the way through tonight.”

Tuesday the Hoosiers were able to turn to their bullpen, an aspect of the team that has provided mixed results. Senior Luke Stephenson came in after

“He’s just figuring out how to put away hitters and how not to mess around sometimes. I thought we pitched well all the way through tonight.”

Chris Lemonis, IU head coach

Herrin to pitch three innings of one-hit ball, and the rest of the bullpen combined for four innings and allowed one hit and one earned run.

A week ago, IU was relying on its bats to keep up with offenses. Now, Lemonis said the key for the Hoosiers to keep the game

close against the Cardinals was their pitching.

“We just pounded the strike zone for the most part,” Lemonis said. “We haven’t been swinging very well but we’ve been pitching it well lately. It’s been tough on us the last week, so it was nice to see the guys celebrate a little.”

Transfer Aimilia McDonough finding groove cpdrummo@iu.edu | @cdrummond97

When IU junior utility player Aimilia McDonough isn’t catching fly balls in the outfield, she’s likely playing catch with a bag of gummy worms.

For the second consecutive year, McDonough lives with junior infielder Taylor Uden, and the pair is known for its candy-throwing habit.

This habit developed last season when McDonough shared a basement bedroom with Uden.

McDonough’s candyfueled bouts appear to have elevated her play this season.

She leads the team with a .348 batting average and is one of three players with a perfect fielding percentage.

However, her path to IU was anything but s traightforward.

An all-state softball selection at Notre Dame High School in St. Louis, McDonough was recruited to Mississippi by then-associate

head coach and St. Louis native Mike Perniciaro.

“We know the same people in the St. Louis area, so when I was at Ole Miss, we recruited her heavily,” Perniciaro said. “She can hit with power, she can run, and she plays good defense.”

Perniciaro left Ole Miss in July 2014 to become an assistant to IU Coach Michelle Gardner, whom Perniciaro has known for 18 years.

After spending one season with the new Ole Miss coaching staff in 2015, McDonough requested her release and followed Perniciaro to IU. “I love Pooch and always wanted to play for him,” McDonough said. “He was the main reason I came here.”

Perniciaro didn’t expect McDonough to come to IU. However, Perniciaro said it was a pleasant surprise for the stars to align and lead her to the IU program.

“I told Michelle, ‘We got a player who could be a gamechanger for us,’” Perniciaro

said. “We went after her, and it’s worked out great.”

Once McDonough transferred to IU in June 2015, she needed a place to stay.

“Taylor was nice enough to share her room last year so I wouldn’t have to live with random people, which helped so much,” McDonough said. “It just helped me acclimate a lot better.”

Part of McDonough’s transition to IU was learning how to play with her new teammates, who have welcomed her into the team.

Away from the field, McDonough’s bond with Uden grew stronger. With Uden originally from Arizona, both players know what it’s like to be away from family for an extended time.

“The junior class in general is from all over the country,” Uden said. “We’ve built this really tight bond, and it’s been a lot easier to make adjustments because of that.”

Uden said she and McDonough lean on each other regarding academic and ath-

letic issues. This means taking time to jump around on their beds, McDonough said.

“She is a firecracker,” Uden said. “I’m always surprised by the things she does.”

As McDonough has adjusted to life in Bloomington, she has begun to use her experiences at Ole Miss as a way to teach IU’s underclassmen.

“The upperclassmen were what got me through my freshman year,” McDonough said. “I find myself able to kind of mentor the freshmen here.”

Consistency has been the key to McDonough’s offensive performance this season. By not having to adjust to both a new program and a new social environment this past offseason, McDonough said she felt better when it came to her on-field preparation.

Since recording eight hits during the five-game Samford/UAB Tournament in February, McDonough has become an everyday player for the Hoosiers.

Both McDonough and Gardner credit this consistency with helping McDonough stay comfortable when hitting.

“I think she’s just gotten into her comfort zone,” Gardner said. “Sometimes it just takes an adjustment.”

One thing that remains unchanged for McDonough this season, though, is her walk-up music.

While she has retained the song “Milkshake” by Kelis for some of her at-bats, McDonough is also using a remix of the theme song from the TV series “The Office” for other trips to the plate at Andy Mohr Field.

“I can’t take myself serious anymore to have a serious walk-up song,” McDonough said. “It’s pretty funny.”

This carefree approach is one of the qualities that endears McDonough to her teammates, including Uden.

“I love her to death,” Uden said. “That’s why we’re still rooming together two years later.”

GOTT TAKES

NCAA Championship was a let down, but the players weren’t The final score was 7165. The North Carolina Tar Heels’ six point win against the Gonzaga Bulldogs in Monday’s NCAA title game should’ve been an all-time contest. If not the two best teams in the nation, the pair were definitely in the top five.

A North Carolina team that lost in excruciating fashion last season on a buzzer-beater had a chance to right its wrongs. A Gonzaga squad that has painstakingly built itself into a mid-major juggernaut finally shooed the monkey off its back to make the national championship game.

This matchup had a few of the most talented big men in college basketball,

NBA players out the wazoo and fewer than 10 losses between the two teams.

There were 11 ties and 12 lead changes throughout the 40 minutes. It should’ve been fun watching this game.

It wasn’t.

All of the pieces were there, yet the men in blackand-white stripes upstaged the actual competitors.

Usually, we go overboard in our admonishing of the refereeing, but the backlash to Monday’s “game” and the tournament as a whole is merited.

Thanks to 44 total fouls and 52 free throws combined, we watched a glorified free-throw contest that had little to no excitement

despite the high stakes.

Gonzaga big men Przemek Karnowski and Zach Collins found themselves riding the pine due to foul trouble, and so did North Carolina’s Kennedy Meeks and Isaiah Hicks. The one time the officials should’ve blown their whistles, when Meeks’ hand was obviously out of bounds on a crucial call, the refs stayed silent.

With that said, the game was never called unfairly or subjectively — just poorly.

Along with the fact that the best players were forced to sit due to foul trouble and watch along with the rest of us, the game never hit a groove due to the disjointed feel. The Bulldogs’ Karnowski, in particular,

missed around the rim often. This is partly due to just a bad showing, but I believe the choppiness of the game screwed with his play as it did with everyone on the court.

After North Carolina’s victory against Kentucky in the Elite Eight, hundreds of Wildcat fanatics took to Facebook to trash one of the referees, John Higgins. Higgins, along with many other referees, is only part-time.

Higgins’ construction company, Weatherguard Inc., found itself being trolled online constantly after the close game. The attacking of someone’s business due to qualms with his refereeing is

certainly a problem. But so is the fact that the NCAA’s officials are part-time employees making calls that will sway a game and possibly the entire tournament.

It was a shame what happened Monday. Instead of discussing the legacy of Roy Williams or the enjoyment of a back-and-forth contest or Gonzaga’s rise to where it is as a program or just anything about basketball, we’re talking about the refereeing. Again.

The IU women’s golf team had the momentum to jump in the standings going into the Hawkeye ‘El Tigre’ Invitational, but the Hoosiers couldn’t hold on in the final round.

The Hoosiers finished tied for 12th out of 14 teams with an overall score of 911(+47) for the tournament in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, on Tuesday.

IU finished 38 strokes behind tournament champion Washington.

IU was the fourth best finisher of the five Big Ten teams to compete in the tournament and finished within two strokes of ninth-place Nebraska and tournament host Iowa, which tied for 10th.

The Hoosiers finished the first day in a tie for ninth place with a team score of 307(+19) and moved up to be tied for seventh after shooting a 298(+10) in round two. However, the Hoosiers couldn’t keep up the pace from the second round and finished the tournament with a 306(+18) in Tuesday’s final round.

IU Coach Clint Wallman said the Hoosiers did a lot of good things but also said the difficult nature of the course made it tough on his team.

“If you hit it sideways on any of the water holes you’re in for a big number,” Wallman said. “There’s a lot of birdies out there and there’s a lot of big numbers out there, and if you can keep it in play, you’re doing pretty good.”

Sophomore Erin Harper led the way for IU with a three-round score of 221(+5) to finish tied for 20th in the individual standings. Harper had the best individual round of the tournament for IU when she shot a 71(-1) in round two. She closed out the tourney strong with a 73(+1).

Wallman said Harper put in a lot of work on her swing as well as her mental game and that it showed in her performance. Harper said she felt like she was returning to form after missing significant time in the fall due to illness.

“My ball striking was pretty good the whole tournament,” Harper said. “I kind of struggled today, but overall I just kept my game the way it should be, swung normally and everything turned out good.”

Senior Ana Sanjuan struggled for the second tournament in a row and shot a three-round score of 232(+16). Junior Alix Kong shot a 229(+13) in her first tournament competing for the team this spring, with her best round coming in round two when she shot a 75(+3).

Both Sanjuan and Kong were dealing with shoulder tendinitis before the tournament, but Wallman said that didn’t affect their play in Mexico.

Freshman Emma Fisher competed as an individual and finished tied for 35th with a 227(+11). Fisher closed out the tournament with a 72(E), which was good for the second-best round of the tournament for IU. Wallman said there were a lot of positives to take away from the tournament for his team, especially on such a difficult course.

“They hit a lot of good shots,” Wallman said. “I think they made a lot of good decisions. There was a lot of good taken away from this, we just need to sustain it for 54 holes instead of 45.”

The Hoosiers return to play this weekend as they kick off their first and only home tournament of the season. The IU Spring Invitational will begin play Saturday and wrap up Sunday.

More appeals were filed in the IUSA Supreme Court

By Jesse Naranjo jlnaranj@indiana.edu @jesselnaranjo

President Trump speaks during a CEO town hall on Tuesday in the White House in Washington, D.C. Seattle recently filed a lawsuit against Trump’s executive order to ban sanctuary cities.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2 Bill would stop warrantless border device searches A new bipartisan bill to prevent the search of devices at the border with a warrant was introduced to Congress on Tuesday. The bill is in response to a rise in the search of Americans’ electronics at the border. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Sen. Rand Pal, R-Ky., introduced the bill in the Senate and Rep. Jared Polis, D-Colo., and Rep. Blake Farenthold, R-Texas, sponsored it in the House.

Currently, authorities have broad power to search electronic devices at the border. Travelers, including Americans, have little privacy protection. This new bill would require a warrant before officials could search Americans’ phones, laptops, tablets and other devices when entering the United States, including border crossings and airports.

“Americans’ constitutional rights shouldn’t disappear at the border,” Wyden said in a statement, according to CNN. “By requiring a warrant to search Americans’ devices and prohibiting unreasonable delay, this bill makes sure that border agents are focused on criminals and terrorists instead of wasting their time thumbing through innocent Americans’ personal photos and other data.”

CNN reported Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly has previously indicated the Trump administration plans to aggressively investigate potential entrants to the country. This could include demanding social media accounts and passwords for applicants to enter the U.S. However, U.S. citizens have been reportedly caught up in this enhanced vetting process. CNN reported that the numbers of such searches have already increased. Customs and Border Protection said that in fiscal year 2016 it

conducted 23,877 electronic media searches, up from only 4,764 the year before, out of nearly 400 million arrivals.

House of Representative Russian investigators plan next steps Members of the House intelligence committee have agreed on a list of witnesses the plan to interview, House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes said. CNN reported Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., said the committee will also bring in top figures who were involved with the Trump campaign and communicated with Russian officials.

The four key targets of the federal probe, former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, former Trump foreign policy adviser Carter Page, former Trump adviser Roger Stone and former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, have offered to speak before House of Representatives and Senate investigators.

IMPS

The Engage with IUSA and Focus for IUSA tickets filed four appeals to IU Student Association Election Commission rulings over the weekend, though Engage’s three petitions were the only appeals which the Student Body Supreme Court ruled were properly formatted.

Members of Engage filed the ticket’s three appeals on Saturday and Focus filed its appeal on Sunday.

Engage’s first petition appealed the commission’s ruling on complaints one and two, filed by Focus against Empower IU. The original complaints alleged Empower violated campaign finance rules by not reporting an order for customized lighters on its final financial statement.

The order was reported on the intermediary financial statement but Empower said it canceled the order before the election because it would arrive too late. Engage’s appeal claims Empower did not provide sufficient evidence before the election.

The other two appeals pertain to decisions on complaints 21 and 24, filed by Engage, also against the Empower ticket. Complaint 21 pertained to IU trademark regulations. While the commission determined that a March 23 Student Life and Learning ruling about IUSA’s designation as a University Student Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 9 — Strategize with teammates.

Organization absolved the ticket from violating SLL’s policy, Engage maintains in its appeal that this did not grant them an exemption from trademark policy handled by a different office.

Complaint 24 involved Empower’s use of Thunderclap, a service used to boost social media impact. The Election Commission ruled in an eight-to-zero vote that Empower did not violate voter fraud rules based off an advisory opinion it issued Feb. 13 which permitted distribution of the voting link as long as it did not fit the commission definition of voter intimidation, outlined in Title VI of the procedural election code.

Engage claims in its appeal that the commission misunderstood how the technology was used.

Focus’ petition appeals the commission’s rulings on all five complaints filed against the ticket. In the appeal, the ticket’s presidential candidate Brandon Sakbun, a junior, said he commended the commission for its intent, however, he took issue with the fact that forgetting the address and phone number of some vendors, along with submitting receipts for their timely filed financial statements a few days after the fact resulted in three 10 percent vote deductions because they did not influence the opinion of voters.

Additionally, Sakbun appealed decisions on complaints 19 and 23, which dealt with an outside organization’s and fun are favored. Remain open to shifting circumstances.

COLLINS SPEAKS Left Yara Cluver, assistant director of Collins Living-Learning Center and the instructor for L200: Collins Colloquium, introduces the first speaker. L200: Collins Colloquium is a one-credit-hour class offered through the Collins LLC. Above David Benton, a sophomore studying English, tells a story about how he used to watch cats for his neighbors.

Benton participated in the event last year and said he is excited to see how the program will continue through this semester.

Middle Mickey Moroney, a sports journalism student originally from Boston, describes a Red Sox game he attended. A slight Bostonian accent peeks through in his voice as he concludes his story of the game with, “That’s home.”

Bottom Freshman Anntolia Hopper said that in L200: Collins Colloquium there is no judgement. Her story, which recalls a time when she was caught shoplifting, begins with the line, “So, I’m sitting in the back of a cop car.”

MAN IN MAASTRICHT

Transcontinental trip exposes beauty of Morocco through nature, cuisine I purchased my ticket to Marrakech, Morocco, early in the semester, and I had been counting the weekends until my departure ever since.

During the last two-plus months, I’ve had the privilege to visit some of Europe’s most beautiful sites, but northern Africa was an entirely new experience for me.

On the morning of my flight, I rushed through my exam and walked with a friend to meet up with our Bla-Bla Car driver. We opted for a rideshare instead of a train because of time constraints, but confusion at Charleroi, Belgium still ended with us missing our flight. It seems these trips are never quite stress-free.

We considered our options and decided to purchase one-way tickets to Casablanca, Morocco’s economic lifeblood and largest city with a

population of more than four million people. Casablanca is seated on the Atlantic Ocean southwest of Rabat, the Moroccan capital.

Between 1912 and 1955, Morocco was a French colony, and this influence is still apparent. Along with Arabic, French is a widely spoken language across many of Morocco’s more urban areas.

Once we had finally arrived, hours later than originally planned, our AirBnB host recommended a traditional Moroccan restaurant blocks away from his home.

The streets were unsettlingly quiet for a Friday night, and the restaurant was empty.

The grumbling in my stomach overpowered my apprehensions about eating at a deserted restaurant. I ordered tajine aux pruneaux, a staple in Moroccan cuisine which is cooked in the same ceramic

platter in which it’s served, and I was not disappointed.

Few items on the menu were more expensive than 70 dirhams, which converts to $7. Overall, between the $2 cab rides and cheap eats, I found Morocco to be extremely affordable.

The next day, we purchased train tickets to Marrakech, a popular tourist destination a few hours south of Casablanca.

One area in which Morocco lacks is its infrastructure.

The train to Marrakech was more than 90 minutes late, and none of the employees were able to provide any additional information regarding its arrival.

When it finally did arrive, it was standing room only for the entirety of the four-hour trip.

In the compartment next to me sat a family with a few

small children. The children would periodically walk outside the compartment and complete strangers would pick them up and cradle them. People were generally very genial and friendly, but this would be a bit strange to most Americans or Europeans.

The hostel in Marrakech was located in the medina, which translates to city or town in Arabic. Many north African cities have medina quarters, which are typically characterized by their narrow streets and religious sites. As opposed to Marrakech’s touristic new town, the medina is home to more authentic Moroccan culture.

Before my return flight Sunday, I went on a guided

tour of Ouzoud Falls in the Atlas Mountains a few hours northeast of Marrakech. The cool waters of the falls offered a respite from the blistering heat, and the indescribable vistas were among the highlights of the weekend.

nearly enough time to properly experience a culture as rich as Morocco’s. I regret not having more time to enjoy the cuisine, culture and people, but the trip, missed flight and all, was well worth it. dkilcull@indiana.edu
