Families join together for Student Remembrance

By Alyson Malinger afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali

Fifteen individual tables were set with pure white tablecloths, a bouquet of bright red flowers displayed in a clear vase and a circular container of tissues aligned evenly next to the flowers.

Families gathered into the room one by one, greeted by a four-string quartet playing calming melodies to set the mood of

the afternoon.

In the past year, 15 IU students have died. On Sunday, the Division of Student Affairs hosted the Annual Student Remembrance Day to mourn the loss and celebrate the lives of the 15 students.

“The daily life of the campus is measurably and permanently altered,” Dean of Students Harold “Pete” Goldsmith said.

David Richard Caulfield, Jill Christine Clay, Christopher Colter, Kelly Ann

Hackendahl, Tyler Kabzinski, Karlijn Keijzer, Richard Lawmaster, Amanda Elaine Ludwig, Danielle Lynn, Brian Robert MacLafferty, Jacob Matthew Meyer, Erik Daniel Noonan, Alexander Enrique Ruesta, Sajaad Syed and Anthony James Wilkerson were all recognized.

The event started with a welcome from Sara Ivey Lucas, assistant dean of students, and then continued with remarks from Goldsmith. Goldsmith talked about how

too brief of a time these students had with the community. The event grew to a crowd of more than 60 people.

Following the opening remarks, Robert Meyer, representative from the Division of Student Affairs, discussed what it meant to be a part of the IU family. Meyer posed the age-old question of what a Hoosier truly is SEE REMEMBRANCE, PAGE 8

Mike Pence’s recent decision to sign the Religious Freedom Reformation Act during the 9:15 a.m. church service at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Bloomington, the Sunday after the bill was signed.

Thousands protested on the steps of the Statehouse, while dozens marched around the Bloomington downtown square.

On the Sunday after, voices rose from the pews — support and protest.

Spring ballet receives praise from audience

By Lauren Saxe lsaxe@indiana.edu | @SaxeLauren

Beginning with the elegance of “Swan Lake,” moving into a contemporary series of unconventional duets and ending with dancers leaping through the air for the finale, the spring ballet debuted this weekend.

Premiering Friday night, the performance also played Saturday: one matinee and one evening.

With three separate acts including “Swan Lake” (Act II), “Duets” and “Rubies,” the show offered a variation in style and atmosphere.

However, the technique and precision remained constant throughout the performance.

IU freshman and musical theater student Caleb Novell, said this was the first ballet he had attended in a while.

“I was really blown away by how beautiful everyone danced and the level at which they were dancing,” Novell said. “I can see

every single one of them with successful professional careers, and I think it’s really kind of an honor to see them as a college student.”

The audience was captivated from the minute the conductor cued the orchestra and the second act of “Swan Lake,” a ballet by the famous Tchaikovsky, started the show. The tale followed the story of Odette, queen of the swans, played during the Saturday matinee by senior Elizabeth Edwards, and Prince Siegfried, played by IU sophomore Colin Ellis also during the Saturday matinee.

One of the highlights of the performance was the precision and effortlessness that came not only from the leads, but from every dancer on stage, as audience member Maryann Iaria said. As Odette and Prince Siegfried performed, the swans stood poised and completely at attention, or moved together in their rows with perfect spacing and their toes tapping in tandem.

“They were very together,” Iaria said of the swans. “They were excellent.”

True to its name, the second act of the show, “Duets,” consisted of several pairs of dancers taking turns stepping forward on stage.

Their routines sometimes overlapped, with one couple chiming in with their dance in the midst of another couple’s routine, or one beginning their performance as another couple finished the last few seconds of theirs. The music was very simplistic, only drums playing throughout its entirety for a less conventional performance.

Each duet had its own style and repetition, but overall they came together to produce a cohesive second act.

“They were very angular, like cubic art,” Iaria said of the dancers in the second portion of the show.

“Rubies” finished the ballet performance as the third act with a dramatic opening and the dancers clothed completely in red. The

leads of this act included Katherine Zimmerman, Aaron Anker and Alexandra Hartnett.

“My favorite part might have been ‘Rubies,’” Novell said. “I just really liked the choreography, and

the outfits were beautiful.”

With music by Igor Stravinsky, “Rubies” was a good a balance SEE BALLET, PAGE 8

McRobbie responds to RFRA From IDS reports

IU president Michael A. McRobbie released a statement Sunday voicing concern about the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. McRobbie said in the statement the Act, which was signed into law Thursday, has brought negative attention to the state of Indiana. He said the law can be viewed as discriminatory and creates a negative at-

mosphere in the state.

“For its part, Indiana University remains steadfast in our longstanding commitment to value and respects the benefits of a diverse society,” McRobbie said in the statement. “It is a fundamental core value of our culture at Indiana University and one that we cherish.”

McRobbie stated that IU plans to continue to hire, educate and provide ser-

vices to people regardless of their race, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, nationality, gender, gender identity or religion. IU will also not allow discrimination based on any of these factors, he said in the statement.

He emphasized the core values of IU and that the University expects students, faculty and visitors to be treated by those core values.

“I want to reassure the

entire Indiana University community, including our students, faculty, staff and alumni, that each and every one of you is welcome and appreciated for the unique qualities that you bring to our community,” he said in the release. “We are all better as a result of our shared experiences, as different as those experiences in life may have been.”

Three tickets: Amplify for IUSA, INtouch for IUSA and UNIFY for IUSA were present as IU prepares for this year's IUSA elections. The debate was moderated by Bloomington Mayor Mark Kruzan.

IUSA tickets discuss sexual assault

By Ashleigh Sherman aesherma@indiana.edu | @aesherma

Thursday brought a debate between three IU Student Association tickets: Amplify for IUSA, INtouch for IUSA and UNIFY for IUSA. Each ticket had three minutes for opening statements, followed by responses to six questions.

What are the three most important issues facing campus?

Candidates from all three tickets agreed sexual assault is the most important issue facing campus.

“Certainly sexual assault is by and far the pressing issue that our campus faces,” said Andrew Ireland, UNIFY for IUSA presidential candidate.

“It is an epidemic, and it must be stopped.”

What sets his ticket apart from the other two, Ireland said, is his ticket’s focus on affordability.

“We face a crisis today in higher generations of students that face so much debt that they are looking at 10, 15 years to pay it off,” he said.

To address affordability, Jack Langston, UNIFY for IUSA vice president of congress candidate, said the ticket hopes to eliminate tuition payments for internship credits and donate executive salaries to a textbook fund.

Nick Laszlo, Amplify for

IUSA presidential candidate, said his ticket emphasizes cross-cultural development.

Laszlo has said the ticket hopes to introduce Skype sessions between incoming international students and current students, allowing incoming international students to ask current students questions, and forming an international student advisory board.

Wes Cuprill, INtouch for IUSA treasurer candidate, said his ticket’s focus on ethics is what sets it apart.

“I was an executive on the (Interfraternity Council), and we heard complaints a lot that the student ethics board was often very slow, not very transparent and often very intimidating,” he said. “So we want to work with the university to completely revamp that process.”

He said the ticket hopes to make the student ethics board more transparent.

How would your ticket increase student involvement?

Ireland of UNIFY for IUSA said increasing student involvement starts with building the campaign, particularly with putting together a diverse and representative ticket.

“If we really want to go and prove to students that it’s worthwhile voting within this election, that it’s worthwhile pursuing this, you have to put up a great slate of candidates and you have to put up

a progressive policy platform,” he said. “And we’ve done just that.”

Ireland added that IUSA must be a transparent and accountable organization.

Laszlo of Amplify for IUSA disagreed. He said that while transparency is important, engagement is more so.

“Simply telling students what you’re doing is not enough,” he said. “You must find ways to make students more interested in IUSA, and that’s how you’re going to get higher voter turnout.”

Laszlo said the current administration, of which he is a part, has already taken steps toward increasing engagement through the introduction of moving speaking tours and student voice surveys.

Anne Tinder of INtouch for IUSA said her ticket would take further steps toward increasing student engagement by introducing an opt-in email.

“Our vision for this is a weekly email from IUSA that fills students in with what we’re doing, the progress we’re making, what we’re spending their money on,” she said.

Should a student government speak out on federal, state and local issues?

Laszlo of Amplify for IUSA said a student government should speak out on federal, state and local issues.

IUSA coverage online Read more about the IUSA debate and tickets online at idsnews.com.

“Everyone on the executive team, or everyone in IUSA in general, should be mindful that, as a student in IUBloomington, you’re not only being affected by the policies that President McRobbie says or the policies that Provost Robel says,” he said.

Tinder agreed.

“It is definitely the student government’s responsibility to advocate on behalf of these issues as well,” she said. “I think we’ve seen this on IU’s campus recently with Freedom Indiana really taking hold on campus. That was very much a student-run initiative on this campus.”

Ireland of UNIFY for IUSA, however, disagreed.

“We are a representative body,” he said.

“We ought not to be taking sides in political issues.

We ought to be working with the state house and the federal government when we can push policy that concerns student advocacy, but at the same time, we shouldn’t be meddling in divisive issues of the day.”

Additional debate questions were addressed in a previous story which can be read on idsnews.com.

IU Muslim Student Union, in conjunction with IU Hillel, sponsored a day of activities and conversation between both groups Friday, a day that is special for both religions.

Titled “TGIF: The ways we coexist,” participants were given the opportunity to attend both Muslim and Jewish services, visiting both places of worship, playing games and bonding over food and shared customs.

The day started with a Jumuah service, the traditional Muslim service on a Friday afternoon. Walking into the room, participants were greeted by a sign that said “Salaam” and “Shalom.”

Both words mean peace in Arabic and Hebrew, setting up the day for an open discussion of peace.

“We are allowing a forum between two groups that would normally never allow a conversation to start in the first place,” Hillel President Carrie Seleman said.

The service exposed the Jewish participants to the traditions of the Muslim religious culture. Each week in the Muslim religion, a different philosophical topic is discussed. The topic discussed Friday was smiling.

The teaching was that if you make a conscious effort to smile more in your everyday life, you will be a happier person and inspire others to do the same.

Following the service, the group transitioned into a number of ice breakers to have the opportunity for the two groups to interact as one. Led by Seleman, participants played games like where the wind blows, blow the deck and rearranging teams of people into age order without speaking. Each game brought out a lot of smiles and laughter, a direct lesson learned from the service earlier.

Once the last ice breaker was finished, Fariha

Hossain, religious chair of Muslim Student Union, had the group circle up to start an open forum and allow the conversation to be guided by the participants. Hossain started the conversation by posing the question, “What is the favorite part of your religion?” A variety of answers came from this simple question.

Being held accountable for your actions, encompassing everything in your life, providing an all-inclusive community and always having an answer for everything were some responses from Muslim participants.

Similar answers were given by the Jewish participants. Being based on all interpretations, having the ability to always ask questions and having a community aspect were the most common responses.

The conversation continued with the shared traditions on Fridays, coming to college and having your religion remain part of your life, celebrating holidays and customs away from families, the question of God in religion and the goals of each religion.

“Our discussion allows us to go past our cultural barriers,” IU sophomore and participant Salah Alhamda said.

Following the discussion, participants walked to the local mosque in town and were given a tour and had time to ask any questions that may have arisen. After the tour, the event moved to Hillel for Shabbat services, followed by a free Shabbat dinner open to the public.

“Both the mosque and Hillel are built to grow community and bring people together,” Hossain said.

Both organizations presented a traditional service to portray the customs of the respective religions. After the exposure of the two religions’ customs, both leaders of the organizations said they hoped to see a common ground being built for a relationship.

Education LLC promotes reading in schools

By Courtney Veneri cveneri@indiana.edu

IU’s INSPIRE LivingLearning Center is challenging elementary students to read more.

The group started Grand Slam for Literacy, a reading challenge for elementary school students where they can win tickets to an IU baseball game April 11 or 12.

Sophomore Rachel Green brought the program to her LLC’s leadership council, which she is a part of, and was put in charge. She then contacted the athletic department to ask if they would get involved.

“They ended up being really supportive,” Green said.

“The baseball players actually went with me to one of the schools to introduce the program, and they’re providing all the tickets, too.”

The program challenges students to read a certain amount based on their age group. There are three age groups: kindergarten to second grade, third and fourth grade, and fifth and sixth grade.

“Once they finish that challenge, we’ve been getting their forms, and then they earn a free ticket to an IU baseball game,” Green said.

“So far, the kids are really

enjoying it.”

The challenge began Feb. 1, and all the kids have six weeks to read the required amount or more. Afterward, they fill out their forms to get free tickets for themselves and a parent chaperone.

“Six weeks is generally a good amount of time to set up a habit, so we’re hoping that by the end of it we can motivate them to want to read more on their own,” Green said.

Besides the baseball tickets, there are also prizes for the top 10 kids in each age group who read the most.

The top reader from each age group gets to throw out

a first pitch at the game, the top two to five readers get to stand on the field with the baseball players during the national anthem and the top six to 10 readers get to sing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” over the PA system.

At the game, there will also be activities for the all the kids to take part in.

“We’ll have field day-type games,” Green said. “We have the patio and some of the grass area reserved. Also, after the game, all the kids get to run the bases and talk to some of the players.”

Right now, there are about 230 kids signed up, though it’s estimated that up

to 300 kids will participate in the first Grand Slam for Literacy.

“As long as it goes well this year, we’re hoping that this will be the first annual Grand Slam for Literacy,” Green said. “The athletic department agreed that if it goes well, they’d like to do it again.”

Grand Slam for Literacy is a program Green designed in order to give back to the community and help promote literacy to the elementary school kids participating. Other IU students wanting to get involved can participate in the LLC’s book drive, which will take place

“ The baseball players actually went with me to one of the schools to introduce the program, and they’re providing all the tickets, too.”

on the baseball field from April 10 to 12 during the baseball games.

“We want to help kids get excited about reading and especially help some of the younger kids set up early reading habits and read more often,” Green said.

Gamers gather for 24-hour LAN video game competition

By Annie Mose aemose@indiana.edu | @anniemose19

Adam Sweeny laid 28 name tags reading his screen name, “Maddog,” on a table.

As one of the founders of the IU Gaming Club in 1998 and the current staff sponsor, Sweeny has been to every one of the club’s local area network (LAN) Wars.

The room was filled with tables covered with cords, computers and snacks. Gamers gathered behind monitors to cheer on friends and teammates, their yells punctuating the soft buzz of voices and clicking.

A large cooler of free Monster Energy drinks sat in the middle of the room.

“A lot of people think that gaming is not a very social thing, and this is proof that’s not the case,” Sweeny said.

LAN War 28 began at noon March 28 and brought gamers together in Briscoe Quad for 24 hours to play, socialize and win prizes. About 180 people signed up for the biannual event, which had tournaments for the games “Counter-Strike: Global Offensive,” “League of Legends” and “Defense of the Ancients 2.”

“We’re all plugging into the same wired network,” said Mitchell Golden, a sophomore and officer in IU Gaming. “Everyone can connect to each other, it’s like a more personal version of Xbox Live.”

Golden attended his first LAN event his freshman year, he said, and he was blown away by the hundreds of gamers and positive environment.

Golden said he liked being in a room with around 300 people who all like to do what he likes to do.

“This is a community for people who see their social life through a screen,” Golden said.

The event is open to gamers outside of IU. Sweeny said gamers have brought teammates from as far as California and Canada. People attend the event to compete against people they have been playing online for years, Sweeny said.

IU Gaming Officer of Communications Vivian Ge said she enjoys the atmosphere and watching the bonds that grow between players.

“Apart from these, there’s not a space that gamers can

come together and play on a larger scale,” Ge said.

Ball State University senior Zach Town has been coming to IU LAN Wars since he was in high school. This is his third time coming to the event.

“There’s not really many in Indiana,” Town said. “We have our own LAN wars at our houses, but this is pretty cool.”

The event required about a month of planning, a few hours of setup and cost about $8,000. The cost is covered by IUSA funding, sponsors and the cost of admission. Gifts from sponsors worth thousands of dollars are raffled every few hours.

Connections at these events can make lasting friendships, Sweeny said.

“People will meet people here that they’ll play with for years,” Sweeny said.

Sweeny now brings his children to the event, and he said he loves watching the next generation of gamers mix with people who have been there from the beginning.

“I’ve been here all along and I love it,” he said. “It’s a great opportunity for everyone.”

Hoosiers gather to protest at Statehouse during weekend, businesses drop deals with Indiana

By Daniel Metz dsmetz@indiana.edu | @DanielSMetz

More than two dozen protesters against the Religious Freedom Restoration Act circled the Monroe County Courthouse on Saturday afternoon.

“Stop the legalization of discrimination,” they chanted.

Emily Jones, an IU sophomore, was one of two people responsible for organizing the protest.

“In an overnight period, I sent out a mass email to businesses, raising awareness,” Jones said. “This really showed me that Facebook is such a powerful tool — we saw a snowball effect with how many people RSVP’d.”

Jones said she had seen the number of RSVPs jump from 30 to 150 within a day.

Jones said the protest was short notice because she wanted it to take place the same day as the Indianapolis protest.

Doug Bauder, the office coordinator from the IU GLBT Student Services office, was also present at the protest.

Bauder said the RFRA was causing some parents concern over sending their children to IU. “They’re ridiculous questions because it’s a

ridiculous law,” Bauder said. “People are going to get hurt. Pence said people should read the law, not the paper, but I read the law, and it’s a confusing piece of legislation.”

Cathrine Johnson-Roehr stood with her friend and waited for the protest to begin. She said she received an email from someone she knew in California about a travel ban prohibiting people from taking publicly funded trips from San Francisco to Indiana.

“I don’t really want people to not come to Indiana,” Johnson-Roehr said.

The line of people snaked through downtown.

Some drivers who saw the protest rolled down their windows and cheered. Others honked their horns and waved.

When the marchers hit the courthouse, Jones stood in front of everyone.

She and two others read off a poster a list of grievances attributable to the RFRA, including the theft of human rights of specific individuals. “(The RFRA) is the protection of radical conservatives,” Jones said.

When she was finished, the crowd began chanting again: “Civil rights are everyone’s rights.”

Like Bauder and Johnson-Roehr, Seiffers said she wanted to march in the protest so other people could see that Indiana is not defined by legislation such as the RFRA and that not all Hoosiers support it.

“This is a way to show that the governor doesn’t speak for us,” Seiffers said.

About 3,000 people gathered in front of the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis on Saturday to protest the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, a new law making it legal for businesses to refuse service to individuals based on personally held religious beliefs. Gov. Mike Pence signed the bill into law Thursday.

Opponents to the law claim it’s a form of legalized discrimination and will allow for people to discriminate, particularly against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in Indiana. Supporters claim it protects people’s religious freedoms.

Protesters held signs with slogans such as “Homophobia hurts everyone,” “Protecting the LGBTQ community is a compelling interest” and “Liberty for all.”

In a letter to the editor of NUVO Magazine, Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry raised concerns about the RFRA’s implications in court and the possibility of the law being used as a defense in criminal proceedings.

“To date, there has been no modification to the proposed bill to exempt criminal offenses from the RFRA,”

Curry said in his letter. “Under the plain language of the bill, the RFRA could be asserted as a defense to a criminal prosecution. Unless one would think that such scenario is unlikely, it has been reported from other jurisdictions with a comparable ‘religious freedom’ law that criminal defendants have done so.”

Another letter from the Columbia University School of Law that was signed by 30 legal experts Feb. 27 addressed legal concerns about the legislation.

“The state RFRA bills do not, in fact, mirror the language of the federal RFRA,” the letter said. “This difference in language, creating a much higher burden for the state in defending the application of otherwise generally applicable laws in cases where there is an alleged burden on religious liberty rights, is extremely important.”

The letter continued, saying, “It is our expert opinion that the proposals, if adopted, would amount to an over-correction in protecting important religious liberty rights, thereby destroying a wellestablished harmony struck in Indiana between these important rights and other rights secured under the Indiana Constitution and statutes.”

Gen Con, Indianapolis’

largest annual convention, threatened to move its event out of Indiana once its contract with the city ends in 2020 if Pence signed the bill.

Last year, 56,000 people attended the convention, estimating an economic impact on Indianapolis of more than $50 million.

Salesforce.com, a software company with investments totaling $40 billion, canceled a company event in Indianapolis after hearing about the law.

San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee released a statement Thursday announcing that San Francisco city employees are no longer able to travel to Indiana using funds from the city.

“San Francisco taxpayers will not subsidize legallysanctioned discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people by the state of Indiana,” Lee said in a statement.

State Rep. Ed Delaney, D-Indianapolis, spoke at the protest, alleging the bill was in response to recent progress made with the legalization of same-sex marriage.

“Our debate is about the belief of our state and about the image of our state,” Delaney said in his speech. “This bill creates a road map, a path to discrimination.”

Pence was a guest on ABC’s “This Week” with George Stephanopoulos answering whether or not he made “a mistake” signing the law Thursday.

“Absolutely not,” Pence said.

“The RFRA was signed into federal law by President Bill Clinton more than 20 years ago.”

Indiana is now one of 20 states with a similar law. Clinton signed a federal version of the law in 1993 that aimed to prevent laws that “substantially burden” a person’s free exercise

of religion.

The difference? Indiana does not mark sexual orientation as a protected class in civil law cases, meaning that the state could potentially not have legal ground to intervene with businesses that choose not to serve LGBT citizens.

When pressed multiple times by Stephanopoulos to answer whether the law could be used to discriminate against LGBT Hoosiers, Pence said that “tolerance is a two-way street” and that backlash has been “baseless.”

Indiana’s enacting of the RFRA has sparked a national debate SUPPORT OF INDIANA’S RFRA “We are determined to make it clear that what Indiana has done here is strengthen the foundation and the constitutional First Amendment rights of religious liberty of our people.”

“Opponents of the legislation may make unsupported claims about the extreme results that it would produce, but they have no examples of judicial decisions actually reaching such results.”

IU Campus Bus Service Proposed Service Adjustments–2015-16

The IU Student Transportation Board is soliciting feedback from IU students on proposed IU Campus Bus Service adjustments for 2015-16. Detailed information on the proposed service adjustments can be found at http://go.iu.edu/tqw. IU Students can provide feedback by emailing directly to the Student Transportation Board at the following address: iustb@indiana.edu.

COME

MEET

Based on the evaluation of the feedback obtained from IU students, final recommendations will be made at the STB public meeting at 8:30 PM on April 20, 2015 in the Charter Room of the IMU. The STB will take a final vote to approve, disapprove, or modify the 2015-16 proposed service adjustments at the public meeting.

1. A Route No changes to the route pattern or service level.

2. B Route B Route to provide service to Indiana Avenue, Seventh Street, Woodlawn, and Tenth Street.

Stops to be added at Sample Gates, IMU, Collins, Psychology and the Wells Library.

Stops to be dropped Jordan Avenue Parking Garage and Wright Quad. Add a bus for most of the day on a Monday through Friday basis, because buses will take more time to operate the expanded route pattern. This returns the B Route to the route pattern it had prior to FY 2012.

3. E Route No changes to route or service level on weekdays. Drop College Mall service on weekends which will allow 30 minute service to campus, compared to 60 minute service currently. Do not operate E Route during class breaks: Semester Break, Spring Break, Summer Break, and Thanksgiving Break. None of the other IU Campus Bus Service routes operate during class breaks.

4. X Route No changes to the existing four bus stops; however, utilize the new Woodlawn Corridor when the project is completed. No changes to service level.

An avalanche of intolerance WE SAY: Religious law protects discrimination In a recent broadcast of “This Week” with George Stephanopoulos, Gov. Mike Pence said there has been “an avalanche of intolerance” poured on our state.

No, he wasn’t referencing the potentially discriminating nature of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act that passed last week.

He was referencing the reaction to the law’s passage from its opponents.

Gov. Pence was asked two separate yes-or-no questions on the program that he failed to answer definitively.

The first was whether it was now legal for businesses to discriminate against the LGBT community, and the second was whether he believed it should be legal to discriminate against the LGBT community.

For a man so determined to convince people the RFRA is not about discrimination, failing to provide the clarity its opponents are calling for is deeply concerning to the Editorial Board.

The RFRA is a law that has sparked outrage since its passage through the state legislature last week. Opponents point to the lack of a statewide anti-discrimination law on the basis of

sexual orientation and believe the RFRA will allow businesses to use religion as an excuse to discriminate and refuse service to LGBT customers.

“RFRA says to people, ‘You are not welcome here,’” said Hannah Miller, president of College Democrats at IU. “Any business can decide that they don’t want to serve you. This could be for your sexuality, gender, self-expression, religious beliefs and so much more.”

IU President Michael A. McRobbie released a statement Sunday condoning the law and its discriminatory implications. “For its part, Indiana University remains steadfast in our longstanding commitment to value and respects the benefits of a diverse society,” he said in the statement.

These fears, coupled with intensely negative publicity nationwide that has included a backlash from the business community, leads the Editorial Board to demand Pence and the Indiana Legislature to address this serious issue.

But when asked whether he would even consider putting in place any kind of legal remedy to quell the wor-

ries of those against the law, Pence responded by saying, “No. That is not in my agenda.”

So Pence acknowledges he is aware of the concerns, refuses to definitively say discrimination is not legal as a result of the bill, and refuses to do anything about it.

That is not the sign of a responsible and engaged leader; it is the sign of a politician so caught up in his own ambition, he has lost touch with his constituents.

Even if the law doesn’t lead to increased discrimination, Gov. Pence’s and Indiana Republicans’ refusal to ensure the law won’t lead to discrimination not only detracts from the reasonable protections it puts in place, but also shows their true intentions.

This law is about protecting against an attack on religion that isn’t happening and giving Christian conservatives a way of voicing their displeasure with the LGBT community.

Pence can say this is about religious liberty all he wants, but in the eyes of the Editorial Board, the avalanche of intolerance is coming straight from his office.

MICHAEL’S MARGINS

Don’t blame depression for Flight 9525 French prosecutors claim 27-year-old German citizen and co-pilot of Germanwings Flight 9525 Andreas Lubitz was conscious inside the cockpit just before crashing into the French Alps last week.

This means the crash was likely deliberate.

After no technical fault could be determined and terrorist motives were deemed unlikely, prosecutors began looking into Lubitz’s mental health records.

The New York Times wrote last Friday, “prosecutors said that among the items found at Mr. Lubitz’s home was a doctor’s note excusing him from work on the day of the crash and another note that had been torn up.

These documents “‘support the preliminary assessment that the deceased hid his illness from his employer and colleagues.’”

If this is true, there may be an explanation — don’t confuse this with an excuse.

If you have depression, no amount of joy, money or support will make depression comfortable; the stigma and discrimination against depression is too pervasive worldwide to risk being forward about such a condition.

Could it be that Mr. Lubitz had torn up the note for fear of losing his job and being labeled? Or had he already decided to ram that plane into the French Alps?

More instrumental to this discussion: why hadn’t Germanwings and other European airlines instituted the ‘rule of two,’ which keeps two pilots in the cockpit at all times, before something like this transpired?

Carsten Spohris is the CEO of Lufthansa, which owns Germanwings. He said he was stunned to learn of the crash.

“Mr. Lubitz was 100 percent flightworthy, without any limitations,” Spohr said last week. Lubitz had passed his annual medical health

test, which is clearly not a psychological evaluation.

Do not misconstrue, the deliberate crashing of Flight 9525 is inexcusable.

There is no excuse for a lapse in judgment that takes 150 lives.

But dismissing the incident as another crazyperson episode would be a mistake.

The real issue with this case, as with many other tragedies motivated by depression or anxiety, is that the truth is not likely to surface.

We may never know exactly why or exactly when Lubitz decided to crash the A320 Airbus.

But I’m willing to bet the reason we’ll never know the truth is the same reason Lubitz “hid his medical condition from employer,” as the headlines read.

Anxiety and depression don’t just affect those who make headlines; it affects our nurses and lawyers, our baristas and clergymen —

Michael Homan is a senior in journalism.

everyone is susceptible to feelings of hopelessness.

Vilifying Lubitz’s condition vilifies the millions of others who share his diagnosis.

If people are afraid of being ostracized just for being honest about how they feel, what can we reasonably expect to continue happening?

Denying that people get sad and make mistakes, regardless of how tragic or costly those mistakes might be, forces the issue under the rug.

As if we can afford not to confront it.

The only healthy way to come to terms with these trying issues is by adopting an attitude of rehabilitation, not exclusionism. michoman@indiana.edu

University of Waterloo photography student Rupi Kaur received a notification that her art was being censored by Instagram for “violating community guidelines” last Sunday.

For Instagram to remove a photo, it must depict nudity, attack a certain group, be stolen or contain spam. The girl in Kaur’s shot is fully clothed, the photo was hers, she was attacking no one and was not distributing spam.

She is, however, menstruating, as evidenced by the small spot of blood on her sweatpants and sheets. It was this frank representation of a natural, commonplace life cycle Instagram chose to forbid.

Kaur’s photo is part of a short series entitled “Period.” that covers the nearly universal experience of menstruation. Other pieces feature her laying on the couch with a hot water bottle, presumably suffering from cramps, and a pair of pants with a red stain hanging out of the washing machine. Some are more direct: Kaur’s feet in the shower with spots of blood on the tiles between them, or her hand poised over a trash can disposing of a sanitary product.

The hypocrisy to track here is twofold: that of Instagram, and that of society as a whole, whose problematic standards of “acceptability,” at least implicitly, motivated the company’s decisions.

Instagram’s double standard is rooted in its tolerance of photos with far more questionable circumstances, even if their intent is harmful.

In a letter to the company, Kaur cites a provocatively posed underage girl shared for sake of sexual exploitation. Such images clearly offend and threaten far more than the documentation of an organic biological event — or, at least, they should.

Intent is tricky to gauge, but Kaur’s project was clearly an academic pursuit, and her decision to share her work was obviously for art’s sake.

The other side of this

Sarah Kissel is a sophomore in English literature.

harmful coin is the social attitude toward menstruation that motivated Instagram’s decision. Widely mandated criterion of what’s suitable for public acknowledgment have fostered bad blood — pardon the pun — between women and their bodies since the beginning of time.

In her book “Witch Craze,” scholar Lyndal Roper cites a distrust of women’s cyclical, “leaky” natures in 14th-century Germany as motivation for condemning them as supernatural, susceptible to the devil’s influence and carrying out massive witch hunts that ended in torture and death.

Women are not witches. Our reproductive cycles do not warrant fear, condescension, disgust, skepticism or shame.

The natural rhythms that govern almost every single one of our bodies are, as Kaur says, as natural as breathing, the bridge between this universe and the next. Instagram is just a small case study in a worldwide witch hunt that photographers and truth-tellers like Kaur are trying to end; their work restores legitimacy to the female experience by documenting it.

“Witchcraft accusations were a hall of mirrors where neighbors saw their own fear and greed in the shape of the witch,” Roper writes.

We have projected our communal insecurities about the “leaky” nature of our physiological selves onto menstruation and made repugnant the very process by which nearly all of us enter the world.

We sweat, we bleed, we cry, our noses run, we breastfeed, and it’s all deemed gross.

Imagine how much happier we’d be if we embraced our bodies, ourselves and each other — in life and in art. sbkissel@indiana.edu

WUNDERFUL

Who is responsible for cheating?

Stanford University has had an abnormally high number of academic dishonesty during its winter quarter.

Surprise! Yes, even the best students cheat. In fact, the best students are more likely to cheat. I learned this the hard way. See, back in high school, my social studies teacher taught both the honors class and the regular class.

As an experiment, he would give both classes the same quiz and allow the students to mark their own quizzes. Except there was a trick: after completing the quiz, we were asked to turn them in.

Our teacher would then excuse himself to leave the class and make photocopies of our original, unmarked quizzes.

We were then given back our own quizzes to grade and submit back to him.

With both the unmarked and marked versions of our quizzes in hand, he compared the two to see if we’d cheated by changing our answers.

Those who cheated received an automatic zero. The people who were honest received the grade they gave themselves.

I was in the honors section.

While I didn’t receive the automatic zero, I saw it happen to many of my peers. More people in our class cheated than the nonhonors students.

My teacher later revealed he had conducted this same experiment for nearly a decade, and the trend has remained consistent: a significantly higher number of honors students cheated — or, as he put it, “Honors students are more likely to cheat.”

Knowing this, it seems unsurprising that one faculty member at Stanford reported cheating allegations involving as much as 20 percent of the students in an introductory course.

Nancy Wu is a senior in English literature.

While the school is still in the midst of contacting the suspected students, Provost John Etchemendy has taken a firm stance against academic dishonesty.

“In violating academic integrity, (students) are cheating themselves of the very core of our mission — the process of learning and discovery — as well as risking severe consequences,” he wrote.

He further stated that “with the ease of technology and widespread sharing that is now a part of a collaborative culture, students need to recognize and be reminded that it is dishonest to appropriate the work of others.”

I agree with Etchemendy’s view that in violating academic integrity, students are only cheating themselves.

College is meant for education. People pay tuition to learn. If, instead of learning, some students are choosing to take shortcuts and cheat, they are wasting chances to grow.

But at the same time, keep in mind it’s the best students who are often tempted to cheat. This probably speaks to how the college curricula’s emphasis on grades and grade-based merit is a source of the temptation to cheat.

Thus, while students themselves are responsible for their own academic conduct, it should also be an educational institution’s priority to endorse curricula and intellectual environments that do not raise incentives for academic misconduct. nywu@indiana.edu

side, not into each other,” says Alex Lamb, director of the children’s ministries.

A curly-haired 9-year-old scoffs at the children using the miniature slide.

Holding their palm branches, the girl and her mother walk into the sanctuary together. The girl’s other mother is not at the service. “‘Hosanna, loud hosanna,’ the little children sing.”

The curly-haired girl plays with her palm branch during the hymns. She braids the smaller leaves, and her mom helps her fold the larger ones into crosses.

The Rev. Mark Fenstermacher welcomes the congregation by briefly addressing the RFRA. “Open hearts, open minds, open doors,” Fenstermacher says. “We are an open, welcoming community.” The congregation members nod.

Back in Bloomington, the Universalist Rev. Mary Ann Macklin begins with a metaphor about how jazz, in its improvisation and inclusiveness, is similar to church and life.

“Right now, the state of Indiana is struggling a little bit about what it means to be inclusive rather than exclusive,” Macklin says.

The audience chuckles knowingly and nods sadly.

Macklin mentions the RFRA by name and calls on the congregation to be, as Hoosiers, strong in their cores — to know what they can do to make a difference. As she calls upon guest Phil Cooper to explain the bill in further detail, she holds up a sign for everyone to see.

On one side, in bright white letters against a blue background, it says, “Liberty for all Hoosiers.” On the other, “Freedom Indiana.” She keeps it raised, a smile across her face, her arms strong. * * *

* * * Brent Steele sits at the head of a table, arms crossed, staring off into space. He’s teaching Sunday School today. He is 68, and his legislative session ends Friday.

After that, it’s back to practicing law in Bedford and performing his duties as an elder at Dive Christian Church.

Behind him, a white board says in bright green ink: “RFRA — Senate Bill 101: If you’re going to object, you owe yourself the intellectual honesty to be logical and consistent.”

Brent is tired. He forgets a name while discussing Palm Sunday with the adults around the table.

“I’m brain-dead. ... Someone help me out here.”

One of the men offers a name.

“Ah, yes,” Brent says with a nod. “Pontius Pilate.”

Here, the senator is with family. He need not explain his politics, but he does anyway.

He believes in SB 101. So does his family. * * *

Across town, Pastor Tom Ellsworth preaches at Sherwood Oaks Christian Church about Jesus and the disciples in the garden of Gethsemane.

Peter sliced off the ear of a Roman soldier and Jesus healed him. The last miracle he performed before crucifixion was for an enemy.

“It doesn’t matter who the person is, what they believe, or what they’ve done,” Ellsworth says. “Compassion, mercy and kindness is always appropriate. Isn’t that what Jesus wants?” * * * The Bethel African Methodist Episcopal church in Bloomington is no place for politics on Palm Sunday. It’s too soon, the Rev. Dennis Laffoon says.

Many members of the congregation are still trying to make sense of it. He is concerned the bill will turn businesses away from Indiana. He wants the state to be a place where everyone who comes feels welcome.

“Where the rubber meets the road is what people

actually do with it,” Laffoon says of the bill.

is set a standard.” * * *

* * * Back in Bedford, Brent leads a Bible study of 14 men and women.

Two of Brent’s sons join him at the table.

Opening the class, Brent calls for prayer requests, adding one of his own.

“I am praying for our governor and legislators, who are under pressure right now,” Brent says. “There is a lot of misinformation out there and intellectual inconsistencies.”

Here, in Brent’s world, church and state coexist.

“Head of NCAA concerned? Really?” the board behind him reads. “Did he mention the other 19 states, some of whom are hosting NCAA games? NO — The truth didn’t fit his agenda.” * * * At Sherwood Oaks, U.S. Rep. Todd Young, R-Bloomington, takes the stage.

Not as a politician, but as a churchgoer.

“Every day beautiful, miraculous things happen across this country, really across the world,” Young says regarding the church’s recent lifting of its debt. “They don’t happen on account of directives or dictates coming from men and women. Instead they come from godly people.”

Nine elders, one fireman and one pastor take the stage to burn the church’s mortgage papers. The smell of smoke and scorched paper follows Young out after the doxology and the final amen.

The sanctuary is mostly emptied. Someone asks Young about SB 101.

He is kind but clear. This isn’t the place to talk about it.

“Courage, courage, courage,” hum the Universalists in a harmonizing chorus. Voices add the words “freedom” and “respect.”

“Courage, freedom, respect,” Macklin says. “I hope this song will sing in your hearts as you go forward this week.”

Another speech. Another song. Macklin holds her “Freedom Indiana” sign aloft.

“And for all who seek the right path — may the songs sing well in your heart and may the improvisations be full of respect, courage and freedom,” Macklin says.

Nearby, 24-year-old Becca Piquard says the new divisive law has not been openly discussed in their church community, but she had thought about it herself. She was mulling the logistics in her head.

Shockney provided spiritual remarks explaining how a house of mourning is better than a house of feast.

Moments like these make us take a step back on the world and think about our faith, Shockney said.

“Even in the midst of your loss, your heart will be made glad,” Shockney said.

The event concluded with the reading of each name by Darrell Ann Stone, a representative from the Division of Student Affairs, and closing remarks from Ivey Lucas. Then families and friends were encouraged to stay and gather to remember their loved ones.

As part of Ivey’s closing remarks, she added Lauren Spierer to the list of students.

A member of all three acts, IU sophomore Colin Ellis said preparation begins during the first couple of weeks in February, sometimes even directly after winter break, depending on when the repertoire arrives.

“We are here today to come together as a community,” Ivey Lucas said.

There was an overall appreciation and gratitude to IU from friends and families.

“IU was definitely a big part of both of our lives,” said Melissa Horn, IU freshman and friend of Anthony Wilkerson, who died Nov. 20, 2014. “We were both figuring out the college life together.”

Elizabeth Haviland, IU senior and sister of Wilkerson, expressed how the event was a little strange. She wished the University did more to include more of the IU family but was very grateful of all the support IU did give to her and her family.

“Anthony didn’t want to go anywhere else,” Haviland said. “IU was his home before he even got here.”

Residents from one residence hall floor, including a resident assistant showed up to support the friends and family of Alex Ruesta. Ruesta was a freshman, and IU would have been a big part of his life, Ruesta’s cousin Erinn Gallagher said.

“As terrible as a process as this was, IU was so helpful and kind in every way,” Gallagher said.

“I had to learn to be a sort of sultry, sassy character in ‘Rubies,’” he said. “And then in ‘Duets,’ it’s a little bit more free form. So the biggest difference is now I’m learning more and more things, and I have to be adaptable.”

Melanzana Cycling riders exchange bikes at Bill Armstrong Stadium during the Little 500 qualifications on Saturday. Melanzana took the pole with a time of 2:41.47.

NEW LEADERS IN TOWN Melanzana Cycling takes women’s pole in its fourth year

Wright Cycling claims first Little 500 pole in team history

After one delay, a possible cancellation and another delay at Saturday’s qualifications, the field for the women’s Little 500 is set. Melanzana Cycling took the pole with a qualifying time of 2:41.47.

This is Melanzana’s fourth year as a team. With all four riders the same as last year’s qualifying team, senior Katie Reynolds said experience was a major advantage.

“Our exchanges have been really good all spring,” said Reynolds, who will be racing in her third Little 500.

“It felt really good during practice, so we were pretty excited that we were able to do it during quals as well.”

The first 24 teams of the day — 14 men’s and 10 women’s — posted times before qualifications were delayed due to poor track conditions. A frozen surface early in the day turned to a slick track, causing several faults and wrecks.

Once the standing water was gone and track was repaired, qualifications resumed.

All 24 teams who qualified before the break were given the option to attempt a faster time at the end of the day.

Melanzana became polesitter for the first time in its history. And for the first time in Little 500 history, with Wright Cycling taking the men’s pole, both polesitters were independents.

“For two independent teams to be on the pole together, that’s a big deal,” Reynolds said. “It shows kind of the diversity of the race that I think some of the time is not represented as well.”

Collins Cycling and Northern Indiana Cycling both scratched out of the women’s race Saturday. This made it so that all 33 teams attempting to qualify made the 33-team field.

Knowing all they needed to do to qualify was have a clean run, some teams slowed down their exchanges and were more cautious on turns to lessen the risk.

Melanzana went in just wanting to qualify — taking the pole was an added benefit.

“We were just going to kind of do our own thing, make sure we had good exchanges and we were riding hot last,” senior Liz Murzyn said.

Gamma Phi Beta posted a second-place time of 2:44.63 on the women’s side, while the 2014 Little 500 Champion Kappa Alpha Theta took third (2:45.16), Ski placed fourth (2:45.36) and Alpha Gamma Delta fifth (2:47.002).

Alpha Chi Omega, last year’s

Wright Cycling’s Evan Zehr felt like his team was flying under the radar.

Was — as in past tense, because now they’ll have a target on their backs in the form of a green jersey.

Wright claimed the pole Saturday for the 65th running of the men’s Little 500 with a time of 2:23.10. The residence hall team edged out Sigma Phi Epsilon by .77 seconds. Evans Scholars rounded out the front row.

“It’s definitely an honor,” Zehr said. “To see all of the work we put into this team pay off is rewarding. All of the guys worked hard for this and I’m just thrilled we’re in this position.”

Wright’s pole is the first in the team’s history, which dates back to teams as early as 1970. The previous best starting spot for a Wright team was when Wright-Rollins rolled out 4th in 1984.

It’s just the second time in the last 15 years that Wright has qualified in the top 10, but Zehr said he wasn’t completely surprised by his team’s speed.

In practice earlier in the week, Wright ran an unofficial mock qualifying run around 2:21, which would have easily taken the pole last year.

Zehr said new coach Chris Wojtowich, a former Cutters rider, was key in helping the team prepare for its run.

He said Wojtowich has changed the team’s culture. They’re riding as quick as they have in years and expect to be more aggressive on race day.

Starting up front will no doubt make that easier.

“He’s definitely changed our mindset and strategy,” Zehr said.

“We’ve put in a lot of work and it’s starting to pay off. There’s still a lot of work to do, and we’re still very hungry.”

Almost 16 seconds behind Wright, Alpha Tau Omega was celebrating like they’d won the pole.

After faulting on their first two attempts, Alpha Tau Omega snuck into the 33rd and final starting spot on the second-to-last run of the night. They bumped Sigma Chi out of the field by just .4 seconds.

Alpha Tau Omega’s Matt Repplinger said he and his teammates spent the final hour before their run practicing exchanges in nearby Bryan Park after poor exchanges caused their earlier faults. He said his team is inexperienced, and it showed in their mistakes during the rider exchanges.

The practice paid off.

IU swept by Iowa, starts Big Ten season 1-4

By Andrew Vailliencourt availlie@indiana.edu | @AndrewVcourt

It wasn’t the weekend the Hoosiers were hoping for after beating Louisville last Tuesday.

IU was swept in its threegame series at Iowa, falling 2-0, 5-1 and 10-6. The losses dropped the team’s record to 16-8 and 1-4 in Big Ten play.

The Hoosiers had dominated the Hawkeyes in recent years, winning 17 of their last 19 meetings.

Iowa Coach Rick Heller was pleased to see a strong series to start the conference

season 3-0.

“When you have the opportunity to win three against one of the league favorites and you take advantage of it, it is a big deal,” Heller said in a press release.

Games one and two saw IU junior Caleb Baragar and sophomore Jake Kelzer pitch quality starts, allowing just one run in seven and six innings, respectively.

“They both have really good fastballs and really good curveballs,” senior catcher Brad Hartong said. “When you have two pitchers that go out and pitch seven innings

and only give up one run, we usually feel like we have a pretty good chance to win. We are a confident group when they’re pitching.”

With junior Scott Effross battling injuries, their performances have pleased IU Coach Chris Lemonis.

“They compete and have given us quality starts,” Lemonis said. “When you get a quality start you always have a chance to win.”

However, their starts weren’t enough, as the Hoosier offense could never get going.

“The pitching from Iowa

the first two games was tremendous,” Lemonis said.

“But we still didn’t compete enough offensively.”

IU collected just eight hits in the first two games combined.

“They had two pretty good arms,” Hartong said. “But we were getting out of our approach and didn’t really put together good at-bats like we should be and are capable of.”

Game three was higher scoring. It saw a combined 29 hits between the two teams.

Effross struggled mightily, getting pulled with just one out in the first inning after

allowing six earned runs.

“Two of those balls, (Iowa) didn’t hit them very well, they just kind of dropped in,” Hartong said. “After that I think he was just trying to do too much. He was trying to make things happen. He just has to keep pounding the strike zone and let his defense make plays behind him. But he’ll figure it out.”

IU trailed by five entering the eighth inning and scored three runs to bring the score to 8-6.

With two on base and two outs, IU was unable to add more.

IU LOSES SERIES TO IOWA Game 1 2-0 Game 2 5-1 Game 3 10-6 “There aren’t many positives when you go on the road and get swept,” Lemonis said.

Iowa added two more in the bottom of the eighth and then held IU with runners on base again in the ninth to seal the win.

“The effort was there, just not the focus,” Lemonis said.

“We need more focus. We need to be more disciplined in what we do.”

polesitter, dropped to sixth.

Teter, which took the pole in four of the past eight years and finished runner-up in the 2014 race, fell into the 18th spot.

But a team’s qualification spot isn’t always an indication of where they’ll place come race day.

Teter is one example, qualifying 10th in 2014 but

finishing as the Little 500 runner-up.

Melanzana is another.

They qualified second but dropped to eighth on race day. Reynolds said it’s difficult to compare qualifications to the actual race because they’re such different formats.

“Just the type of pressure that quals has — four laps, just you and your team out there,” she said.

“The race is obviously a lot

INDIVIDUAL TIME TRIALS 4-10:30 p.m. Wednesday, Bill Armstrong Stadium longer, there’s a whole different strategy and mindset to it.”

It does, however, put them at the front of the pack to start the race.

“It’s a huge honor to win the green jersey, and it’s also huge being in that first spot,” Reynolds said.

As if the Hoosiers hadn’t made enough history this season, several individuals wrote their names into the record books again at the Big Ten-Pac 12 Challenge on Saturday in Tempe, Ariz.

UCLA, Arizona State, Arizona, Nebraska, Michigan and IU competed between the two power conferences at Arizona State, as they split the series between a Big Ten men’s victory and a Pac 12 women’s victory.

Even though IU underwhelmed as a whole, finishing fifth overall in men’s and last in women’s, the team still claimed three victories.

Three other individuals broke into the top-five in IU history in their events.

“It all has to do with the climate that we’re trying to create,” IU Coach Ron Helmer said about the team’s constant improvement. “Each individual is responsible for their own job, and it’s dangerous to rest on any performance this early in the season.”

Freshman middle distance runner Daniel Kuhn set the third-fastest 800-meter run time in IU history with 1:47.80, while freshman thrower Andrew Miller tied down the third-best hammer throw mark with a personal record of 64.31 meters. Both athletes finished second in their events.

Sophomore Nakel McClinton dismantled the school record in the women’s hammer throw with her launch of 59.66 meters and finished first in the field.

“My goal was actually 60 meters, but I fell short of that a little bit,” said McClinton, who finished fifth in the weight throw at the Big Ten Indoor Championships in February. “I was kind of disappointed with my performance in indoors, so it feels good to start outdoors by setting this record.”

The week of the Big Ten Indoor Championships, McClinton began to master the footwork necessary for long weight-throw tosses, similar to the hammer throw in outdoor season.

She has not only reached her goal of breaking the school record, but she has done it with the entire outdoor season in front of her.

“There are a lot of important meets between now and outdoor Big Tens, but a Big Ten Championship is always in the back of my mind,” McClinton said.

On the track, Kuhn looks eerily similar to sophomore 800-meter record holder Tre’tez Kinnaird. Then-freshman Kinnaird ran the second-fastest time in IU history with 1:47.13.

Now that the two athletes train together, it would not be surprising to see head-tohead competition before the end of the outdoor season.

“Without Tre, I wouldn’t have anyone pushing me as much as he does,” Kuhn said.

“We make each other better, and, without a doubt, we could be one of the best duos in the nation by the end of our time.”

Apart from McClinton in the hammer throw, senior Evan Esselink took first place

IU TOP PERFORMER Sophomore Nakel McClinton broke the IU record in the women’s hammer throw. in the IU top-four sweep of the men’s 1500-meter run, while junior Brianna Johnson triumphed in the women’s 3K steeplechase.

Arizona was not the only place IU track and field competed, though, as the fourday nationwide Texas Relays meet at the University of Texas came to a close Saturday.

Junior decathletes Stephen Keller and Dylan Anderson took home third- and fifthplace finishes Wednesday and Thursday respectively with overall personal records for each athlete.

Junior women’s pole vaulter Sophie Gutermuth also made IU history as she set her outdoor personal record of 4.35 meters, third-highest in school history, but finished in just fifth place in a tough field of competition.

“I’m not too worried about this group settling on early performances,” Helmer said.

“They’ll keep pressing hard and trust in their work. It’s the group that still produces mediocre performances that I’m more concerned with. They need to break out a bit.”

IU will travel to Palo Alto, Calif., next weekend to participate in the Stanford Invitational.

“These meets are good for the athletes who train all year for outdoors,” Helmer said. “Everyone needs that positive reinforcement and to see that there is a pay off for their work.”

Cousin of dead artist denied art collection

EDITORS: AUDREY PERKINS & KATHRINE SCHULZE | ARTS@IDSNEWS.COM

The cousin of Cornelius Gurlitt, an artist who died this past May, was denied rights by a Munich court to Gurlitt’s collection of more than 1,000 artworks, according to artnews.com.

Gurlitt’s collection included works by Monet and Renior and was originally collected for an art museum Hitler was planning to establish.

The collection is willed to the Kunstmuseum Bern in Switzerland.

Mitski plays at the Blockhouse, captivates crowd

By Adam Smith adbsmith@indiana.edu | @adbsmithIU

About 15 people sat around the edges of the Blockhouse’s performance space while local band Yoko No No’s set up.

More people trickled in while the band played, and close to 50 people stood around the stage when local band The Tourniquets started their set.

The room was nearly full by the time Brooklyn, New York, singer-songwriter Mitski and her two bandmates began. The blue light that washed the stage while Mitski ran through a vocal warmup transformed the bright pink bass guitar hanging from her shoulder into a fluorescent pink beacon.

Mitski stopped at the Blockhouse on Friday to play the second-to-last show of her solo tour before heading out on the road again with the Screaming Females.

After opening her set with the fast-paced song “Townie” from her latest album, “Bury Me at Make Out Creek,” Mitski transitioned into the more subdued song “First Love / Late Spring” from the album.

IU student Hannah Hadley said she loved that Mitski’s songs “definitely have a punk side, but they also stretch and are ethereal.”

Mitski mostly stuck to playing songs from her last album, but she did include two songs from her 2013 album, “Retired from Sad, New Career in Business,” as well

as an unreleased, punk rockinfluenced song in which she sang that her “body’s made up of crushed little stars.”

The singer-songwriter dedicated her song “I Don’t Smoke” to all of the girls at the show “who don’t love themselves yet.”

As her guitarist and drummer left the stage for the last song, “Class of 2013,” Mitski reminded the crowd who she was.

“So yes, my name’s Mitski,” she said.

With her bass guitar set aside and just the microphone in her hand, Mitski walked to where her guitarist had set her guitar on its stand. She seemed to haphazardly strum the guitar occasionally as she sang, and when her voice rose to a climax, she lifted the guitar to her face with the microphone stuck between.

When Mitski’s voice trailed off and the guitar was back in its place on the floor, her bandmates rejoined her onstage. They began to pack up their instruments.

Mitski realized after a few minutes that the crowd had hardly moved from its place after the last song ended.

She flashed a smile, quickly waved goodbye and turned back to finish packing up.

Finally, the crowd moved.

IU student Mike Higgins said he thought the show was great, and he was surprised by the way Mitski sounded.

“She played a really different style than I’ve ever heard before,” he said.

Gealt speaks at ‘Art and a Movie’

painting, these big dappled stallions rearing up and people trying to manage these giant percherons,” Gealt said.

“Oh my God, this is the best horse painting I’ve ever seen.

My sister and I are looking at this piece by Rosa Bonheur, one of the great animal painters of the 19th century.”

This was not the last time Gealt saw the Bonheur work.

Gealt said Henry Hope, the first IU Art Museum director, managed to bring the piece to the museum before the historic building was constructed.

Gealt said the massive piece sat alongside the works of other high-profile artists in the IU Auditorium building as part of Hope’s mission during his time as director.

“He brought a blockbuster,” Gealt said. “It’d be a blockbuster today. It was certainly a blockbuster by those standards, right here to Indiana University.”

Gealt then took patrons through her journey to the directorship. She said she began by walking into the office of her predecessor, Thomas Solley, looking like “a hippie” with Daisy Mae shorts, long hair and no makeup.

Solley took a chance on Gealt, making her first assistant registrar then eventually curator of drawings. Gealt said the first major project Solley assigned was an examination of the work of Domenico Tiepolo, an artist Gealt has now published 10 works about.

Gealt said she became director in 1979, when Solley handed her a printout from an adding machine and wished her luck.

“When you get my age, you start looking back and thinking your life really does unfold like a novel,” Gealt said. “It’s really weird.”

MFA play opens at IU Theatre

By Lanie Maresh emaresh@indiana.edu

Although junior Ian Martin had no previous knowledge of sound because he usually auditions for acting roles in IU Theatre productions, he still found himself volunteering to be the soundboard operator for IU Theatre production “Sing To Me Now.” “I thought I had an opportunity to learn something new,” Martin said. “I’m already learning about lighting in class, so why not just sort of throw yourself into this new sort of world?”

At 7:30 p.m. Friday night at the Wells-Metz Theatre, soundboard operator Martin, along with his fellow cast and crew members, premiered the master of fine arts original play “Sing To Me Now.” The performance was presented as part of the collaboration between IU Theatre and the IU Playwriting program.

The play follows Calliope, or Callie, the muse of epic poetry, who decides to hire a human intern named Yankee to help her with her overflowing workload. Callie, a serious and hard-working muse, finds

Yankee to have a spunky but still intriguing personality.

The two develop a complex working relationship in which Callie has to find a way to let someone not only into her office but also her life.

As people waited in the lobby for the theater doors to open, sophomore and IU theater student Adam Decker said he was excited to see something that was written by an IU student come to life on stage.

“I think that’s a really cool opportunity they get, because getting your show produced is something that you would really not get a chance to do otherwise at such a high level,” Decker said.

Iris Dauterman, the MFA playwright who wrote the show, said she only added a few lighting and sound cues while in the process of writing.

She said it was really the collaboration of her and the rest of the crew that was able to create a show with so many more.

There are nearly 500 cues in the show — Dauterman said most shows have around 200. The cues contribute to setting the tone

and telling the story in a different way.

Lighting cues tell people specifically where they are in a literal way, but they also set a more emotional tone, Dauterman said.

She added that there are things about Callie’s mother’s room that feel confined or institutionalized, and that’s very separate from the meadow, which feels open and free.

Through this storytelling, Martin became the soundboard operator just two weeks before the show. With no prior training, Martin said he worked very closely with the sound designer of the show.

“You sort of get thrown into it, which is crazy but fun,” Martin said.

Throughout the show, Martin stood at his soundboard, located on the third balcony of the theater.

It was the stage manager’s job to give Martin a standby cue for each cue so when the time came, the cue popped up on his screen and Martin was sure he pressed it exactly when the stage manager said “Go.” Martin said he was able

SING TO ME NOW Tickets $15-25 7:30 p.m. Thursday and Saturday IU Theatre to learn how to use the soundboard quickly, and it’s less about the mechanics of the board and more about the mechanics of the show.

“Anyone can press a space bar, or anyone can load up a cue,” Martin said.

“That’s pretty simple, but doing it in time with the lighting with the stage manager’s “Go” and with the action on stage is the trouble.”

Martin said the pressure to get all the cues correctly during the show is high. But, he said he was glad he took the opportunity to be the soundboard operator because now he feels he has more awareness and patience as an actor onstage.

“Now having done sound and this lighting classes, I have a newfound respect, patience and understanding that they’re doing their darnedest to make the people on stage look the best,” Martin said.

“That’s cool, and that should be valued.”

IU Art Museum Director Heidi Gealt’s term as director will end this summer, but she is fully engaged with museum happenings for her final few months.

The last “Art and a Movie” event of this academic year took place Sunday. Gealt gave the preceding talk, taking attendees through her life experience within the art world, some of her best memories and her career at the museum.

Nan Brewer, one of the museum’s curators and coordinator for the “Art and a Movie” series, gave Gealt’s introduction. She discussed Gealt’s rise from assistant to registrar to curator to director and took a moment to show how much Gealt has touched her.

“I am kind of delighted to say that I have been able to spend my museum career working under Heidi,” Brewer said.

Gealt said she is always humbled to speak to the IU Art Museum community.

SWIM AND DIVE

Duo performs well in NCAAs

By Frank Bonner

“At IU, we just always aim for high goals.”

frbonner@indiana.edu @Frank_Bonner2

Ray Looze, IU Coach

IU freshman James Conner and sophomore Michael Hixon were the ultimate duo for the Hoosiers as at least one placed in the top four of all of the diving events during the NCAA Championships in Iowa City, Iowa. These performances helped IU place 12th overall with 126 total points.

“Our goal was to be top 10,” IU Coach Ray Looze said. “But 12 was the best we could do with what we had as far as lack of experience and a young squad. At IU, we just always aim for high goals.”

Conner placed second overall in the platform dive, making his 514.80 points the second highest score in school history. He also jumped a career best in the 1-meter dive to place fourth with a score of 437.85, and Hixon scored 430.90 to finish right behind him in fifth.

Hixon also placed second in the 3-meter dive. His prelims score of 494.90 was two points higher than his finals score and is second overall in IU history.

Conner placed fourth overall, but his prelims score was significantly higher than his finals dive. Conner scored 496.80 in the prelims to grab the school record from Hixon’s prelims dive but only scored 471.70 in finals.

“There were a lot of great guys and I’m just happy to be a part of it,” Conner said. “Michael and I are really happy with how we did. It just speaks volumes of the hard work we put in and the direction the program is going.”

Looze said he is proud of his team and how they competed. Other great performances came from the Hoosiers’ 800 freestyle relay team that placed fifth overall with the second-best time in school history at 1:34.41.

Freshman Blake Pieroni recorded the third-fastest time in school history in the 200 freestyle at 1:33.29 to place fourth overall.

“Once the meet starts we have to maximize our strengths, and I feel like we did that to the best of our ability,” Looze said.

This is the first time in the past four years the Hoosiers have not placed in the top 10 at the NCAA Championships.

They have a total of 26 top10 finishes in school history and placed 10th in last year’s championships.

“I believe our future is really bright,” Looze said.

“And I would like to thank the seniors for their years of contributions.”

“Coming off of turn four, I saw 2:31 on the clock and I thought for sure we had it,” Nardi said. “I looked up again and it was at 2:38. I knew it was going to come down to it.”
