INDIANAPOLIS— resident Bill Clinton’s enigmatic charm seemed to sedate people in a sweaty room in a strip mall Tuesday as he delivered a campaign speech for his wife, Hillary Clinton. “If you want to make America great again, vote for Hillary,” Bill said. This marked the first major Indiana stop for Hillary’s presidential campaign. The campaign is a family affair: Bill spoke in Hillary’s campaign office in Indianapolis while Hillary toured a steel mill in Hammond, Indiana. This Friday, Hillary’s daughter, Chelsea Clinton, will be in Indianapolis. Hillary’s chances of snagging the Democratic nomination depend heavily on the next few primaries, including Indiana’s, which is next Tuesday. Hillary has 2,141 pledged delegates
P
and superdelegates after five states had their primaries Tuesday night, according to the Associated Press. Bernie Sanders has 1,321. Outside, two protesters held signs, including one that read, “CLINTONS ARE CRIMINALS.” But inside, Bill’s deep southern drawl and touting of Indiana as America’s “poster-child” were met with cheers. He went down the policy laundry list: Healthcare. Immigration. Wall Street. College tuition. Without saying Bernie Sanders’ name, Bill criticized Hillary’s opponent’s proposal for free college tuition. Though free college sounds great, he said, it’s just not practical when states have to pay a third of the cost. “What are the chances a state like Indiana would do that?” Bill said.
Bill explained his wife’s plan to give college graduates who pursue public service jobs a tax-free $20,000. He also shared Hillary’s plan to provide graduates with 20-year mortgages. He said kids battling 9-percent interest rates are “whipsaws” between work and school. As for the job market itself, Bill made an example of an Indiana company. Bill name-dropped Carrier, a former Anderson, Indiana-based company that grossed almost $3 million last year. Carrier employed 1,400 Hoosiers before it announced its move to Mexico. “Too many companies are sending 80 to 90 percent of their profits to executives,” Bill said. In Hillary’s America, companies that fairly distribute profit will receive tax benefits, he said. “So,” Bill said after about 45 minutes of SEE CLINTON, PAGE 10

Hoosiers blanked in Indy by Fighting Irish By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali
It was a game of missed opportunities Tuesday for the Hoosiers, who failed to string together quality atbats in key situations as Notre Dame shut out IU for the second time in three games. Coming off a weekend series full of promise at Michigan State, the Hoosiers fell behind from the start and never recovered. The Fighting Irish, avenging their loss from last year, scored four runs off two long balls to defeat the Hoosiers 5-0 at Victory Field in Indianapolis. “We had so many Hoosier fans come out tonight to support us in the rain and you would like to play better,” IU Coach Chris Lemonis said. “That’s one of the big things — we just would like to put a better game out there for our fans to see.”
0-5 A promising start for the Hoosiers (23-16, 8-4) in the first inning quickly dissolved when junior first baseman Austin Cangelosi popped out to end the inning and stranded two Hoosiers on base. Notre Dame (24-15, 9-10), on the other hand, wasted no time to jump all over IU. Designated hitter Ricky Sanchez scorched a one out double right center. Outfielder Zak Kutsulis followed Sanchez in the order and on the very next at-bat drove him in on a RBI single to take an early 1-0 lead. Junior starting pitcher Luke Stephenson earned his third straight midweek start for the Hoosiers and made just one costly mistake for the SEE BASEBALL, PAGE 10

Two animals, different in size, shape and personality, are best friends in Mo Willems’ children’s book series “Elephant and Piggie.” In Cardinal Stage’s production of “Elephant and Piggie’s ‘We Are in a Play!’,” the characters come to life beneath the flashing lights of a vaudeville stage. The show combines stories from six of the “Elephant and Piggie” books, each of which discusses friendship and feelings. “Friendship is not a child issue, it is a people issue,” Willems
said in the Monroe County Public Library’s study guide for the play. “Since children are, in fact, people, it seemed an appropriate topic for a few funny stories.” Music Director Ryan O’Connell said Cardinal Stage is making sure to treat children as people. They want to meet children at their level. “It’s really easy to put on this helium voice in children’s theater,” said O’Connell, a 2011 IU Jacobs School of Music alumnus. “We don’t want to do that here because we feel like that’s talking down to kids.” Although they avoid a condescending tone, cast member Lola

After more than six hours of investigating the human remains found in southwest Bloomington, forensic anthropologists reported Tuesday the scene did not indicate foul play. A Duke Energy electrical employee found the skeletal remains on the ground on the 1600 block of S. Rogers Street at about 2:30 p.m. Monday, Bloomington Police Department Capt. Steve Kellams said. The remains, which mostly consist of bones, were not concealed, Kellams said. The electrical worker found them on private property while working on lines in the area. Little is known about the race, gender or age of the person, or the cause of death. But, “there’s no indication that this would be Lauren Spierer,” Kellams said in reference to the IU student who’s been missing since 2011. Detectives are continuing to investigate any possible connections to other missing person’s reports in the area, according to a press release. Monroe County Coroner Nicole Meyer requested the assistance of forensic anthropologists from the University of Indianapolis to investigate the remains. The team of anthropologists

Cardinal Stage turns children’s series into play By Maia Rabenold
Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders will visit campus at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the IU Auditorium for a rally before the May 3 Indiana presidential primary. The rally is not ticketed and will be first come, first served. The auditorium’s capacity is about 3,100. Doors open at 5 p.m. “Bernie Sanders is very popular with young people,” said Audrey Todd, a junior who has coordinated with the Sanders campaign. “He wants to come and meet students and make sure we all get out to vote.” This is the first time a presidential candidate will visit Bloomington this election cycle. President Barack Obama visited Bloomington in 2008 during his first campaign. Rally-goers should not bring bags to the event and limit themselves to essential items like cell phones and keys, according to a press release. Caleb Bauer, president of Students for Bernie Sanders at IU, will introduce Sanders at the rally. The Sanders campaign reached out to Bauer on Sunday night about a rally. The event was organized within a day, Bauer said. The rally was supposed to be either in Dunn Meadow or Woodlawn Field but will be inside instead because of the chance of rain, Bauer said. Because Sanders is running a 50-state campaign, Bauer said he feels Indiana’s primary this year is more significant than in previous elections. Indiana’s presidential primary is Tuesday and Sanders trails Hillary Clinton in delegates nationally. IU students can vote in the Indiana primary if they have already registered to vote in Monroe County and possess state-issued identification. IU identification cards meet the statemandated criteria. Registered voters in Monroe County can cast an early ballot 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. until Friday at 401 W. Seventh St. Suite 100 and 401 N. Morton St. Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. May 3.

Activists posted sanitary napkins across campus as part of the global #PadsAgainstSexism initiative. Each pad was emblazoned with a feminist message or statistic about sexual assault from Rape, Abuse or Incest National Network or the Human Rights Campaign.
Sanitary napkins line campus By Erica Gibson ecgibson@indiana.edu erica_clare05
As discreetly as possible, five women blanketed the Bloomington campus in sanitary napkins. They posted in bathrooms. They covered trees and walls. They marked signs and bike racks and staircases. Upon completing her mission, recent graduate Katelynn Dockerty’s purse smelled like Kotex Sport panty liners. Between 6:30 and 9 a.m., women plastered campus with nearly 400 feminine hygiene products as part of the #PadsAgainstSexism movement. Each one bore a message condemning patriarchy and rape culture. Dockerty, 23, created the notes on the pads. “I used the original message from the German feminist who started the #PadsAgainstFeminism campaign,” Dockerty said. The German campaign posted in public spaces pads that read, “Imagine if men were as disgusted by rape as they were by periods.”
Dockerty changed the message to replace “men” with “society” because she saw rape culture as a larger problem. She also printed several additional messages to address period stigma and the prevalence of campus rape. “I’ve had several friends who have been assaulted,” Dockerty said. “The administration doesn’t do enough.” Last spring, Dockerty said she had to rearrange her schedule because she shared several classes with a friend’s rapist. She said although her department heads were mostly accommodating, one administrator told her to drop her classes, despite several being required. “It should be hard to go through your day when women are being stigmatized, raped and assaulted,” Dockerty said. Peter Johnson, a graduate student, paused on the steps of the Indiana Memorial Union to look at a panty liner attached to the handrail. In 12-point Courier font, it read, “Imagine if society was as disgusted by rape as it is by periods.”
“I thought it was wonderfully eye-opening,” Johnson said. “It’s awful that some people are disgusted by materials but not concerned about actual bodies.” Everett said the group also posted pads the Thursday night of Little 500 week, but campus maintenance swiftly removed all the group’s work. “They followed us as we posted them,” said Emily Buis, a 2015 IU graduate. “It was bizarre. They didn’t even approach us.” This week, they chose to work in the morning to create the largest window of time before staff removed the pads. “We wanted to do it in April because Little 5 is notorious for creating a culture where sexual assault is more common than other times of year,” Everett said. In Dunn Meadow, a maxi pad attached to a tree read, “4 women reported being raped between April 15th and April 17th and the Bloomington Police Department considered it ‘an abnormally mild Little 500 Weekend.’ This is unacceptable.” “We’re hoping people feel
as infuriated as we are,” Everett said. “We hope it sparks a conversation about rape culture on campus. Buis said she hopes #PadsAgainstSexism will begin a discussion on combatting sexism and sexual assault. She and Everett said they welcome criticism and encourage others to suggest methods of spreading the message. “We would rather hear criticism than nothing at all,” Everett said. “ If they think this project is wasteful or rude, how should we go about it? If not this, then what?” Everett said the Bloomington Pads Against Sexism group will donate twice the amount of pads used for the initiative to local homeless shelters. They are accepting donations at Rainbow Bakery. By mid-afternoon, many pads were missing. Wispy tendrils of cotton lingered on the lampposts after people tore the pads down. Dockerty said she didn’t expect the remaining pads to last very long. “It’s supposed to rain tonight, and they’re really absorbent,” she said.
Many BFC members voice concerns By Eman Mozaffar emozaffa@indiana.edu @emanmozaffar
At her last Bloomington Faculty Council meeting, Frances Trix said she had enough with the system. Trix, the Diversity and Affirmative Action Committee chair, will not be returning to serve on the council next year. During her time with the council, Trix said she had several problems with the way meetings are run. She said she had been at universities where shared governance and unity are practiced. IU failed to establish a similar environment, Trix said. “I have never been treated so disrespectfully as my standing committee has been this year,” Trix said. “It was demoralizing.” The committee met biweekly to put an inclusion report together, Trix said. However, they were never given time at faculty council meetings to speak about their goals and findings. The committee was constantly ignored, Trix said. Instead, she said IU paid California-based consulting firm Halualani & Associates a large sum of money to conduct their own diversity assessment report. “The report was nothing but expensive PR,” Trix said. “Administrators were afraid of our project.”
As Trix delved into her series of complaints during the last BFC meeting of the semester, IU Provost Lauren Robel’s hand rested on her microphone. She let out several audible sighs that echoed throughout the room in Franklin Hall. “I don’t want what happened to my committee in the past two years to happen to any other committee,” Trix said. Council members primarily discussed the campus’s faculty scholarly activity systems policy, which was proposed by outgoing council president Cassidy Sugimoto. The system measures and evaluates faculty performance data and was passed after a long debate. Pete Kollbaum and Richard Van Kooten, members of the Research Affairs Committee, proposed several motions to amend the policy, as well as a delay so committees could spend more time revising its guidelines. Although Sugimoto’s policy passed almost unanimously, several council members voiced their concerns about the lack of time given to look over the policy with greater detail. “If we have standing committees relevant to the resolution and policy, it’s odd to bypass them,” Robel said. “This resonates with the complaint they got last week.” At the prior BFC meeting,

Trix interrupted the presenters to express her dissatisfaction with the year’s proceedings. She said the council had discussions on diversity, her topic of interest, without notifying her committee. During the meeting, Long Range Planning Committee Chair Alex Tanford updated the status of his group’s report, which addressed several of Trix’s concerns. The report will outline a five-year plan for what the council aims to accomplish, including a complete restructuring and making meetings more action-oriented. Tanford said the current organization of committees dates back to 1974, when the campus was last reorganized. “There wasn’t a Provost’s office, or core schools, and
many things have changed since then,” Tanford said. “Do we have the right committee structure to take the campus going forward?” Bloomington Faculty Council president-elect Rebecca Spang said she agreed with the council’s motions to update their policies. She said the next year will be one where the council becomes more productive, continuing the work Sugimoto started. “May I move that we pass a resolution of gratitude to our outgoing president?” Spang asked near the end of the meeting, which uncharacteristically came to a halt fifteen minutes early. Laughter erupted in the crowd, followed by a series of cheers. For the last time this year, the meeting was adjourned.
IU Student Association executive tickets RISE and REAL and the election commission will argue their cases Wednesday in front of the IUSA Supreme Court. Beginning at 6 p.m. in the Maurer School of Law Moot Court Room, the supreme court will hear all sides of RISE for IUSA’s appeal of the election commission’s decision regarding vote deductions for REAL for IUSA. While the supreme court and the election commission work separately throughout the election process, if a ticket disagrees with a commission decision, they can appeal it to the supreme court. “We accept an appeal if we think the election commission either committed a clear error or if they’ve been biased throughout the process,” Chief Justice Owen Hoepfner said. The hearing will have four main parts. RISE, REAL and the election commission will each get 40 minutes of oral argument. Throughout the oral argument, the supreme court has a chance to interrupt and ask questions. Once oral arguments are finished, each party has five minutes for a concluding statement. All sides will submit evidence as well as petitioner’s briefs, reply briefs or thirdparty briefs to the supreme court prior to the hearing Wednesday evening. “Most people would be shocked with how much evidence each side has,” Hoepfner said. “Both sides are very meticulous in case of situations such as an appeal.” RISE filed a complaint with the commission during the elections stating REAL had committed voter fraud. While the election commission agreed REAL had committed voter fraud, they deducted only 21.4 percent of REAL’s votes. RISE is appealing this decision and requesting the disqualification of REAL. Two complaints filed by RISE against REAL stated REAL committed voter fraud. One complaint stated the IU College Democrats sent out an email endorsing REAL and included a link used for
student voting. Sending out the voting link is considered voting fraud, according to the election code. The commission’s decision stated the IU College Democrats executive board committed voter fraud, and because REAL members were on this executive board, REAL committed voter fraud. Another complaint stated a member of REAL’s ticket made a Facebook post supporting the ticket and distributing the voting link. REAL claims the student was never a part of their ticket and was therefore a third party who was allowed to make posts such as this. RISE claims both of these infractions were voter fraud, and REAL should be disqualified instead of simply having votes deducted. REAL President Sara Zaheer, however, said REAL did not commit voter fraud. Both the College Democrats and the student who sent out the link did so without being told to do so by anyone on REAL. Because of this, REAL filed an appeal with the supreme court regarding the commission’s decision to deduct 21.4 percent of their votes. The supreme court denied this appeal. However, REAL will get a chance to argue its side at Wednesday’s hearing. Normally, the hearing has two arguing sides, but since this appeal has multiple parties involved, three sides will get the chance to argue. “Although they’re arguing from vastly different perspectives, they are pretty much appealing the same decision from the election commission,” Hoepfner said. After the hearing, the supreme court has 48 hours to release a decision, which will most likely include one or two sentences stating their verdict. Hoepfner said about a week later the court will hopefully release the official opinion, which will be used to set precedent for future elections. Hoepfner said it’s important the process is as fair as possible. Whoever takes office should be who the students really want. “I’m proud that IU has this expansive system of checks and balance even for student government,” Hoepfner said.
IUSA Court Proceedings Prior to hearing The election commission gave all records regarding the case to the supreme court. RISE for IUSA filed a petitioner’s brief. The election commission filed a reply brief. REAL for IUSA filed an amicus curiae brief; a brief from an outside party. Any other interested party, excluding RISE, REAL or the commission, could file an amicus curiae brief. At the hearing RISE will give a 40 minute
oral argument. The election commission will give a 40 minute oral argument. REAL will give a 40 minute oral argument. (During these arguments, the supreme court can interrupt and ask questions.) Each party will then have five minutes for closing remarks. The supreme court will then deliberate and release a decision within 48 hours of the hearing. The supreme court will release its official opinion about a week later.

Hillel Executive Director Rabbi Sue Laikin Silberberg speaks on the acceptance of female rabbis in Judaism on Tuesday afternoon at the Helene G. Simon Hillel Center. Silberberg said she believes female leadership is less of an issue in Judaism because of how it continuously grows and adapts to the world, unlike many other religions.
Local women discuss their role in Judaism Cody Thompson Comthomp@indiana.edu @CodyMichael3
Sue Silberberg was driving down the road with her two children more than 20 years ago when they saw a man walking alongside the asphalt. Silberberg told her children he was her friend and a rabbi. “But Mommy, he can’t be a rabbi,” her daughter, Talia, said. “He’s a boy.” Silberberg has been the head rabbi at the Helene G. Simon Hillel Center in Bloomington since 1989. She said her children had become so used to female rabbis that they didn’t realize men could have the position as well. “When something becomes what you grow up with, it’s normal,” she said. Silberberg earned her undergraduate degree in social work from IU and went on to Reconstructionist Rabbinical College in Philadelphia to become a rabbi. All through history, Jews were on the forefront of integrating women and treating them equally, if not better, than the surrounding societies, she said. “Our community could not function without the presence of women,” said Sue Swartz, president of Congregation Beth Shalom in Bloomington. Swartz said she never saw a female rabbi while she was growing up, but when she was in her 20s, the norm shifted. At Beth Shalom, the rabbi is a man, but the president is a woman, and they have women serving in every other aspect of the congregation, Swartz said. “Now young girls have role models who are both male and female,” she said. “It makes a big difference in how you relate to your leaders.” Not every congregation
and denomination is as liberal as theirs, Swartz said. In traditional orthodoxy, women have very limited ritual assignments, but that is changing too, she said. Sexism isn’t a Jewish issue, Swartz said. The issue is societal in nature, she said. She admitted that looking at who runs the major Jewish institutions would uncover some gender imbalances, but that is no different than any other institution. “Women are pretty much fully integrated into society,” Silberberg said. “For religion to be a place where that’s different, it doesn’t make sense.” Even though Jews maintain certain basic beliefs, Silberberg said the core of their beliefs is about struggling with the text and interpreting the teachings. She said a major teaching encourages Jews to be involved in change and to make the community what it is. They should struggle with the traditions and think about how to interpret them, she said. Swartz said leading a faithbased life and being an unabashed leftist aren’t conflicting lifestyles for her. She said she has found open-minded people in religious institutions and closed-minded ones in supposed progressive circles. “When you open to women, gays and lesbians, and non-European Jews, your commentary becomes richer and you see the story through different lenses,” Swartz said. “It’s not watering down, it’s creating a richer and more inclusive space.” Swartz said it’s easy to blame a major social issue on one group of people. Gale Nichols occupied the position of president of congregation for Beth Shalom 20 years ago. Nichols is now the director
of student services and global services at the Kelley School of Business. She said she hasn’t seen any changes in Judaism in the past 20 years because women have always been represented well. While their first president may not have been a woman, Nichols said it didn’t take long for women to lead the congregation. She has seen female equality in many other communities, even modern orthodoxy, Nichols said. However, she said she wouldn’t dare tell other communities how to operate. “Each of us brings our own special gift and perspective we can share with the community and worship,” she said. Nichols said she is happy to belong to this community because she has had the freedom to worship how she wishes and to be involved in many different ways. In some communities, such as very traditional orthodox communities, she said she would be restricted from some opportunities such as singing or leading sermons in front of men. Female equality in Judaism comes from the religion’s respect for women and its acknowledgement of the knowledge women can share with the community, Nichols said. “For many decades, there has been a lot of progress towards egalitarianism, and that’s a good thing for all of us,” she said. While not being able to speak for the whole world, Silberberg said she feels her congregation doesn’t have a gender issue at all. Individuals may be sexist and have those beliefs with them, Silberberg said, but now there are generations that have grown up with women rabbis and are used to it. “I struggle but not because I’m a woman,” Silberberg said.
Only 622 delegates are still available for the Republican race after polls closed for five East Coast primaries Tuesday night. Presidential candidate Donald Trump’s lead continued, claiming 950 delegates. In response, John Kasich opted to undercut Trump’s efforts by halting his Indiana campaign. Kasich’s reallocation of resources was simultaneous with Ted Cruz’s Sunday announcement to focus his attention on Indiana and “clear the path for Governor Kasich to compete in Oregon and New Mexico.” But then, in a diner in Philadelphia, Kasich told reporters if Hoosiers want to vote for him, “they ought to.” Although it’s not unprecedented for candidates to skip over certain states, the agreement between Kasich and Cruz created a media storm. “I don’t see this as any big deal other than the fact that I’m not going to spend resources in Indiana, (Ted Cruz) is not going to spend resources in other places,” Kasich said to the media Monday. “So what? What’s the big deal?” Kasich cited funds as the motivator for the change. “I don’t have, like, Daddy Warbucks behind me giving all this money,” he said Monday. “I have to be careful about my resources.” Kasich did not cancel his private fundraiser in Indianapolis on Tuesday evening. In fact, Sunday’s announcement generated more fundraising interest from voters, said Pete Seat, senior project manager for Hathaway Strategies, the company handling Kasich’s Indiana campaign. The real win comes from the delegates, though, Seat said. “It’s a delegate game, right,” Seat said. “In order to make sure Donald Trump doesn’t get the nomination on the first ballot, it’s about picking up delegates where you can.” Indiana will send 57 delegates to the national convention this summer. Of those, 27 delegates represent congressional districts and therefore must vote for the candidate who wins in the district. A separate 27 delegates

are considered “at-large,” meaning they must vote for the candidate who wins the state. The three remaining delegates are bound to the Republican National Convention. After the April 26 Super Tuesday, Kasich is trailing behind nationally at 153 delegate votes, compared to Cruz’s 560, according to the Associated Press at the time of press. However, Kasich’s campaign felt comfortable with its position with Indiana delegates, said John Weaver, Kasich for America chief strategist, in a statement. “Ultimately people need to make the choice that they think is best,” Seat said. “If they want a second ballot especially, they need to make a smart decision when they go to the polls.” Mathmetically, only Trump can win the GOP nomination on the first ballot. The alliance between Kasich and Cruz was designed to stop Trump from passing the 1,237-delegate threshold, therefore giving him the Republican nomination outright, according to both their websites. If no candidate reaches this threshold, the nomination goes to a second ballot and delegates can vote for any candidate they choose. However, this process can be a bit confusing to the average voter. “I understand that the average voter doesn’t understand that and that this has been a very different election cycle,” Seat said. “It’s exposed the process to more people. There is an important distinction between something that materialized out of nowhere versus something that has been the process in which we nominate people for decades.”
Focusing on delegates rather than voters can be off-putting, Ohio Democratic Party Chair David A. Pepper said during a media conference call with Indiana Democratic Party Chair John Zody. “The more voters view politics as a game that’s not about them, the more they disengage and the more upset they get,” Pepper said. “They are seeing what seems, right now, as a political game in Indiana.” Pepper criticized Kasich for not focusing or winning in his border states. “I think it leaves voters who are clearly already frustrated, already frustrated with the Republican party, thinking, ‘Hey, these guys, this is just a game to them,’” Pepper said. “This isn’t a vision about how to help make Indiana a better state or the country a better country.” Even from an opposing view, Pepper said he thought the joint attack against Trump actually hurt the other Republican candidates. “Again, I’m a Democrat watching from the outside, but it does seem to play to Donald Trump’s hand,” Pepper said. “For some of these folks, it is a game and it’s not really about the issues that Indiana families care about or Ohio families care about.” From the Republican standpoint, the shared goal is to beat Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, Seat said. To achieve this, Republican voters need to buy into the Kasich-Cruz alliance. “If they’re okay with Donald Trump being the nominee and being defeated by Hillary Clinton in a spectacular fashion, then that’s what they should do,” Seat said. “If that’s not what they want to see, then they need to make the smart choice.”
Event bolsters discussion for parents and LGBT kids Cody Thompson Comthomp@indiana.edu @CodyMichael3
Children looked up at their parents and waited for their reactions to the presentations facilitated by Prism Youth Community at Bloomington about family support. The event, “Importance of Familial Support for Queer Youth”, was a mixture of presentations and discussion between children from the LGBT community and their parents. The event consisted of topics like respecting identities and using the correct terminology. Phoenix Young, 18, and his mother, Tracy, 46, both attended the event at Unitarian Universalist Church of Bloomington on Tuesday night. Phoenix has been a member of Prism since it began, he said. “I just feel like this is the safest place I can be in Bloomington,” Phoenix said. The event was a collaboration between White River Valley Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays, the Unitarian Universalist Rainbow Rights Task Force
and Prism. “It’s good for the parents because it makes your children feel better,” Tracy Young said. “It’s good to learn that you’re not the only one who feels this way. It’s such an important thing the community has — to make these kids feel worthy, important and n ormal.” Ninety-nine percent of families want to be supportive of their children, Prism Youth Program Director Laura Ingram said. “It’s an incredibly important discussion to facilitate,” Ingram said. “How can we create an impact and a safe environment?” It’s important to give members of the LGBT community a platform to address subjects that are hard for them to discuss alone with their parents, she said. Opal Hall, 18, and her mother, Susie Gleyze-Thomas, 52, both attended the event as well. Hall is also a member of Prism. “I’m kind of quiet normally, but I have a lot of friends here, and I feel comfortable,” Hall said.
Several members of Prism spoke during a slide show educating the audience on acceptance and politeness to members of the LGBT community. “It’s not that we didn’t know our identities when we were younger, it’s that we didn’t know the language,” one speaker said. The discussion was loud, and parents and their children spoke about the presentations they had just heard. Papers with fictional anecdotes were given out and discussed. Some of the discussions caused the participants to have somber faces and others had people exploding in laughter. After the discussion finished, members of multiple organizations gathered at a table at the front of the room to answer questions from parents, children or any other attendees. Hall’s mother said she came to support Prism. Not a lot of communities have an organization like it, she said. “I think it’s a lifesaver,” Gleyze-Thomas said. “Bloomington is blessed to have it.”

Tubman takes the twenty WE SAY: No need to worry - it’s only money Last week, Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew announced Harriet Tubman, a former slave and renowned abolitionist, will replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill. In response, our nation’s most racist, misogynistic and uneducated citizens climbed out of their snake holes to throw a fit over a black woman replacing a white, male president on their currency. To those of you whose weeks were apparently ruined by the thought of Harriet Tubman appearing on the $20 bill, we, the Editorial Board, would like to politely instruct you to calm down. If you cared enough to do the research, you’d know that Secretary Lew also announced that the changes to the currency wouldn’t take effect until about the year 2030.
Some of you will be dead by then. By that time, all of you will have had so many more problems to worry about than who’s face is on the bills in your wallet. Certainly, none of you will remain upset about this for the next fourteen years. In fact, by next month, you’ll have forgotten about it completely. So calm down now. Stop wasting your breath. It’s only money. Instead, let’s have a discussion about bigger issues. Let’s talk about the fact that if Harriet Tubman was alive and working in the United States today, for every $20 bill a white man received, the woman whose face is on that bill would only get $12.60 of it. That’s a conversation worth having. Focus less on whose face
the Federal Reserve is printing on our bills and more on how the Fed loaned out $16 trillion worth of those bills to domestic and international financial institutions at zero to one percent interest rates as part of the bailout in 2008. Everyone gets all bent out of shape when the Federal Reserve decides to put an American hero on the front of the $20 bill, but no one seems to care when they loan out enough taxpayer money to fund the United States government for four years. Let’s talk about how you would have to work 2.75 hours at minimum wage to earn one of those $20 bills, while the average American CEO has to work only 12 seconds to make the same. Yes, you read that correctly. American CEOs make $5,859/hour.
It’s simply not worth wasting our energy debating who should be on the face of our currency. We can a name a thousand things that qualify Harriet Tubman to be on the $20 bill. You probably can’t name one thing that disqualifies her from it. So let it go. Let’s get back to the real issues. Let’s stop directing our attention toward issues that don’t affect us, and let’s work together to solve the ones that do. And, by the way, for anyone who’s offended by the new $20 bills, please feel free to send every one you get to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People or the National Organization for Women in protest.
A SLICE OF SOMETHING REAL
Challenge the privilege of the wealth In this society, wealth privilege means you get to enjoy spending your wealth in the company of other equally rich people, while you ignore the millions struggling to survive. Businesses are creating more exclusive and luxury goods and services that allow their rich patrons to experience their vacations and theme parks without having to be around lower classes. In response to the growing spending and expanding of the top five percent in the United States, businesses have decided to further class divisions and are purposefully redesigning their business to cater to the rich only. Basically, businesses are doing what they can to make sure the people who have money to pay for more luxury and exclusive goods and services can enjoy them away from the people who can’t afford them. If this isn’t indicative of class warfare, I don’t know
what is. Businesses are reacting to the growth of wealth, but only the growth of wealth by the one percent. Professor of economics at the University of California Berkeley Emmanuel Saez said the top one percent of U.S. households controls 42 percent of the wealth in the country and that the top .1 percent of that group controls 22 percent of wealth. And this is just a ballpark estimate of the one percent’s control of wealth. While the one percent amasses wealth at an alarming rate, the top five percent is growing. From 2010 to 2014, the number of American households with at least $1 million in assets rose by one third. The number of American households with more than $1 million in assets had their wealth grow by 7.2 percent, which is eight times faster than wealth growth for American households with less
than $1 million in assets. Yes, the rich are just getting richer and at a rate that other people can barely even hope to achieve. Michael Bayley, president of Royal Carribbean, a company which is currently designing luxury cruise ships exclusively for rich customers, told The New York Times, “I think society is prepared to accept that if you pay more for certain elements, then you deserve them.” I’m sure it’s easy for the president of a large corporation to say money determines what people do or do not deserve, but for most people to know this philosophy is driving businesses is sickening. Instead of having business spend millions to build new luxury cruise ships with personal servants available to be at your beck and call (yes, this is real and is available through the Norwegian cruise line), why don’t we have businesses feed hungry people. The philosophy of money

equating what people deserve is not limited to the cruise ship industry. It permeates every aspect of our society. If I want better health care, education, transportation, food or clothing, I have to be willing to pay more or make due with what I can afford. In this society, money dictates your quality of life and in the most extreme cases, dictates how and when you die. Businesses and pro-capitalist people may think that paying more for better quality services is fine but when those services such as health care and education determine your quality of life it is no longer fine. It’s disgusting. rcm2@indiana.edu @RachelCMiller1
THE FITZ FILES
Women’s rights and overpopulation Four years ago, the global population exceeded seven billion for the first time. The global population is definitely not expected to stop there. According to the United Nations, there will be nine billion people on the planet in 2043, and a further 10 billion in the year 2083. Rapid population growth is an issue that will affect all of us in the coming decades. It’s important, then, for researchers to work on trying to find as many solutions as possible to stemming our population growth for the future of our planet. Some possible answers include increasing access to contraceptive services, especially in developing countries. According to the United States National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health, less than five percent of people in most
countries in Africa even use contraceptive services. Another potential answer lies in increasing women’s access to educational services around the globe. According to Alan Weisman, a former professor for the University of Arizona who was quoted in U.S. News and World Report, allowing women to have more access to education can “give women the opportunity to choose how many children they want.” Women who have lower education rates in often have higher fertility rates than women with increased levels of education around the world. According to U.S. News and World Report, 40 percent of adult women in Africa have no education, compared to a lower 20 percent in Asia and 10 percent in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Countries like Mali in Africa, for example, have high fertility rates due to this lower access to education for women. The U.S. can increase its commitment to women’s rights globally as a way to counter overpopulation. However, previous U.S. foreign policy has not been very effective in addressing this goal. According to the Richmond Times-Dispatch, former President George W. Bush’s plan to address AIDS globally (titled the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, or PEPFAR), led to huge amounts of money going into Africa, but also prohibited organizations from using any of the funds on family planning services. Under current President Barack Obama, PEPFAR actually lost funding. According to the Washington Post,
TRISTAN FITZPATRICK is a junior in journalism and history.
funding for the program has fallen twelve percent since the year 2010. So not only was PEPFAR not funding family planning services, its funding to combat diseases like AIDS has steadily decreased to begin with. The U.S. must renew its commitment to supporting women’s rights across the planet if it wants to address overpopulation. If the United States does not do this, it’s difficult to imagine many other countries stepping up to promote a reasonable answer to overpopulation. ttfitzpa@indiana.edu @tfitzwrites
Recent events have led me to write something not often heard in Bloomington: Donald Trump makes a good point. Republican presidential candidates Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. John Kasich have supposedly created a pact not to compete in certain states, including Indiana. Trump responded to the news by noting how, if this sort of collusion were not to compete, it would be illegal in business or investing. This is the maneuvering seen by many Trump supporters as evidence the primary system is rigged against them and their votes. It is further evidence politicians get to play by a different set of rules, one more reason for Trump’s supporters to vote for him. Trump’s supporters would be right. Cruz and Kasich have now explicitly shifted their focus from amassing their own delegates to denying Trump as many as possible. There is a reason collusion is illegal in business. It makes the market a zero-sum game in which, instead of creating value and drawing customers in with better offerings, businesses restrict consumer choice. Instead of adding value, colluding businesses force consumers to choose subpar options by arbitrarily restricting their choices. This sort of move may not be illegal in politics, but it is distasteful. It’s also a bad idea, for many of the same reasons. Cruz and Kasich must both know the Republican party needs to bring in new voters going forward to stay competitive. Instead of trying to appeal to as many potential voters as possible with their distinct brands and ideologies, the two men are divvying up a

shrinking pie. If this is the GOP’s strategy going forward, it won’t stay competitive for long. If anytime a non-traditional candidate decides to run and brings non-traditional voters to the table, they are shunned and locked out, the Republican party is then refusing to grow. To Trump voters, it will appear the insiders are teaming up against the outsider, and this is not an unreasonable viewpoint. It is not difficult to imagine how that will look to those that identify themselves as political outsiders. I cannot think of an establishment candidate in recent history that has expanded the Republican base. When extolling the virtues of the free market, conservatives often highlight the importance of removing barriers to entry and regulations so startups can shake up stale established markets. Now is the time to practice what they preach, allowing the market of ideas to flourish and be disrupted by outsiders. Only then will the Republican party be able to grow their tent. The old order is stale. Arguably the last time the GOP expanded its appeal was with Reagan during the 80s, and he was considered an outsider candidate then. Though I hate the term, “establishment” seems more appropriate everyday. Cruz and Kasich would be wise to remember an anyone-but-Trump strategy does not guarantee one of them the nomination either. zaochamb@indiana.edu
FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH
Be careful to condemn the act of negotiating with terrorists The final seven months of John Ridsdel’s life were sporadically documented via video camera, but the spine-chilling home videos were not of the sort that we’re accustomed to. In Sept. 2015, Ridsdel, two of his Canadian compatriots and a Filipino woman were kidnapped by Islamic terror group Abu Sayyaf, an affiliate of Al-Qaida. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau confirmed reports Monday that Ridsdel had been executed by his captors after ransom demands were not met and an alternative solution had not been reached. With Ridsdel’s tragic execution, we are forced to address an issue that has resurfaced time and time again. When, if ever, is it an acceptable practice for governments to offer concessions to terrorists? At face value, the answer is never. Yielding to terrorists’ demands sets a dangerous precedent that kidnapping can successfully be used to attain one’s will. The Ridsdel tragedy could be evidence of this very fact. In 2002, the Bush administration arranged a $300,000 ransom payment to a purported Abu Sayyaf affiliate in exchange for two American hostages. Bush wasn’t the only offender. According to the New York Times, Al-Qaida has raked in over $125 million from European governments, and ransom demands are on the rise as a direct result. Still, we shouldn’t recognize the idea of communicating with captors as taboo, as is becoming the norm. As Slate pointed out, “Not making concessions to terrorists has become not negotiating with terrorists, which has become not

communicating with terrorists.” As policy becomes narrower in its interpretation, the families of hostages are left between a rock and a hard place. The Obama administration’s actions regarding terrorist negotiations have been mostly pragmatic, if inconsistent. The parents of the executed journalist James Foley claimed they were threatened with prosecution if they attempted to pay their son’s ransom in 2014, but journalist Peter Theo Curtis’ family was allowed to do so. In June 2015, the administration announced families would be allowed to explore negotiation with the captors of loved ones. If the White House wishes to preserve a policy prohibiting negotiation between the government and terrorists, so be it. Doing so is probably in the best interest of national security. But, as Obama pointed out, we “must do better” for families who are left with no other option. Unlike large scale payments from European nations, isolated payments from hostages’s families won’t create a market for kidnappings. Families don’t have access to the wealth of resources that nations do. There’s no easy course of action in a hostage situation. We should be careful to condemn any and all interaction with terrorists and realize that, at times, guarded negotiation can be a good thing. dkilcull@indiana.edu @daniel_kilc

GUEST COLUMN
A call for daily resistance to rape and a response with education Rape is a universallyknown parasite that is afflicting our campus and must be squelched. We must acknowledge that beyond the most recently reported rapes that occurred during Little 500 weekend — each committed by multiple men on a single female victim — men have also been victims. Last October, a video circulated around the world that showed a male student at the Alpha Tau Omega house who seemed to have been forced to perform oral sex on a woman while ATO members
cheered. As a PhD student, a teacher, a lawyer and a proud feminist, I am beyond tired of these acts of sexual injustice. Yet these incidents are just the tip of iceberg. Not only is IU under investigation by the Department of Education for alleged federal law violations pertaining to managing sexual violence complaints, a recent campus survey found 29 percent of undergraduate female participants and 8 percent of their male counterparts had “experience[d] some form of nonconsensual sexual touching while at IU.”
Moreover, 52 percent of the female undergraduate participants “fe[lt] that IU officials should do more to protect students from harm.” Sexual terrorism: the term for the constant fear, especially felt by women, of being raped. As my students learn in my introduction to gender studies course, sexual terrorism exists in a rape culture — our culture — that normalizes rape. How are we, as students, supposed to learn in this culture? As teachers, how are we supposed to teach? I entered my class on the
Monday following Little 500 weekend knowing I had to discuss the rapes with my students. I entered knowing I had to take drastic action. Instead of welcoming them and beginning the discussion of the reading, I began by reading feminist Andrea Dworkin’s 1983 speech, “I Want a Twenty-Hour Truce During Which There Is No Rape.” In this work, Dworkin makes a simple request: a day without rape. I read them this speech because, on our campus, I honestly felt I had to. After, I asked my students
what we could do as a campus community to end rape. Many said we should use education. They’re right. Each day, we must educate each other. We must teach our friends they are legally required to get consent before trying to engage in a sexual act with another person, and that sex without consent is rape. We must remind each other we don’t need to assert our power by hurting others. We must show our friends we can use our power to help each other. Another finding from the survey was 50 percent

of student respondents “felt they could play a role in curbing sexual violence on campus.” So what are we, an inspiring body of 44,546 potential social justice warriors, waiting for, especially considering the administration isn’t doing enough to protect us? Our health, education and IU’s reputation are at stake. Amanda Stephens
LETTER TO THE EDITOR The late Elizabeth FoxGenovese, a feminist and accomplished American historian wrote in her article, “Abortion: A War on Women” that the legalization of abortion begins as a war on women because not only does it break the “binding tie between women and the children they conceive,” but also “it tells them that in order to be worthy, they must become like men ... which effectively means securing freedoms from their bodies and, especially, from children.” In her article, “The Feminist Case Against Abortion,” Serrin M. Foster, president of Feminists for Life writes, “The anti-abortion laws that early feminists worked so hard to establish in order to protect women and children were the very laws destroyed by the Roe v. Wade decision a hundred years later.” The prevailing narrative in academia paints the abortion issue as solely being a women’s rights issue, and anything else is misogynistic, anti-choice, utter sexism and oppressive. But this is false. Being pro-life is recognizing all human lives matter and are worthy of the protections of our laws. The confusion I see all too often is many students do not view human rights as having limits. Human rights understood as claims or privileges to specific things do in fact have limits — a clear example is this: We have a
natural right to be born free and not be subjected to slavery, and because of this we can’t own slaves. We have no right to own others even though we have all sorts of rights. A common objection against the pro-life position is that women have the right to do whatever they want with their bodies — it is theirs and they are the sole decision-makers. My question here is: Is abortion still choice-worthy when we know that the unborn is actually a human being? The unborn, whether a human zygote or at five months, is a human being and we should do everything we can to defend their rights to be alive. Abortion is a 21st century human injustice and we should not call it anything else that is short of this reality. How can we, on one hand claim and believe that all human beings have inalienable rights, yet on the other hand want abortion on demand? Students making these sorts of decisions need to know they are not alone, even though it might seem to them like they are sometimes. Parenthood is nothing to run from. The pro-life movement is pro-women because it recognizes and respects this gift only women have, which is to bring other humans into the world.
tion alone. The burden will always fall on perpetrators to recognize what constitutes rape and sexual assault, and categorically end it. Additionally, we must commend the survivors for their bravery in reporting. It is the only way the community can understand the depth of the problem and work to solve it. April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Campus-wide events for Sexual Assault Awareness Month can be found at https://studentaffairs.indiana.edu/dean-students/ sexual-violence/its-on-us/ sexualassault-awarenessmonth.shtml. Understanding informational and reporting resources is critical. Specific reporting links for IU Bloomington are at http://stopsexualviolence.iu.edu/report/bloomington.html.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR POLICY The IDS encourages and accepts letters to be printed daily from IU students, faculty and staff and the public. Letters should not exceed 500 words and may be edited for length and style. Submissions must include the person’s name, address and telephone number for verification.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Sensitive issues always evoke strong reactions from community members. For human sex trafficking, an issue largely thought to be a problem in developing nations, the concern is especially high as these cases involve children. The article that created questions about the vetting and planning process of speakers who come to IU spoke exclusively about the human sex trafficking event Unslaved, sponsored by Net Impact, the Union Board and the Kelley Student Government. Unslaved focused on
increasing student awareness of this inhumane industry, which continues to plague the United States and victimize individuals and communities. The article was written in response to an unverified claim made by Tracy McDaniel, the founder of Restored, a nonprofit that also focuses on vicitm support, that Rhonda Patterson, the founder of Unslaved, needed a written release to use a victim’s first name in her speech. Patterson refuted this claim as she had verbal permission granted from the victim and her guardians. The
law in question was never presented in the article to clarify facts nor was Ms. McDaniel’s association with the Indiana Attorney General’s Office apparent until the IDS posted a clarification several days after the article was published. She is neither a staff member of nor spokesperson for the office, although she speaks on its behalf in the article. Whether they bring speakers to campus or publish news articles, vetting sources should be a concern of all IU organizations. Net Impact, a student organization that educates
and empowers its members to be sustainability conscientious leaders, brings professional and inspirational speakers to campus to engage students in higher learning. While we have never directly received a complaint from Ms. McDaniel, we hope she will contact us or reach out to Rhonda directly if she needs any clarification on or has any questions regarding the presentation. As to what questions the article creates, we can only interpret individually. Megan Yoder

LETTER TO THE EDITOR April 20, 2016, Culture of Care and IUSA join Union Board in the following: As student organizations directly involved with programming and promoting Little 500 weekend, student events and campus culture, we are deeply saddened to learn of the series of rapes reported this weekend. Unfortunately, these reports represent a pattern of violence extending beyond one week. We refuse to accept this as the status quo. Our collective mission is to bring about greater unity and cooperation among all students. This can only happen if students need not fear one another in their own community. We believe it is possible to have celebration without exploitation. As arts, governance and cultural organizations, we work yearround to make that a reality. But it can only be done with the cooperation of all students. America’s Greatest College Weekend can only live up to its name when we no longer expect reports of death, rape and violence to share the front page with the races’ winners. We will continue to create programs and resources to combat sexual assault, but we need your help to work beyond awareness and bystander interven-

The opinions expressed by the editorial board do not necessarily represent the opinions of the IDS news staff, student body, faculty or staff members or the Board of Trustees. The editorial board comprises columnists contributing to the Opinion page and the Opinion editors.
While I commend IDS staff for a provocatively impactful front page layout for the April 22 issue of the print edition of the Indiana Daily Student, I have observed the problematic juxtaposition of James Benedict’s photograph with its accompanying caption for Erica Gibson’s story “Feminism Matters: Slut Walk protests rape culture and promotes changing the perception of consent.” Specifically, the caption beginning, “Students gather in Dunn Meadow to listen to Lisa Kwong before marching
on Kirkwood Avenue during the Slut Walk on Thursday,” would normally call for a photograph featuring Lisa Kwong, an adjunct professor at the IUBloomington Department of English. Contrary to reader expectation, however, the image of Professor Kwong in the Benedict photograph is out-offocus and barely perceptible behind the large all-caps lettering that reads ‘Feminism Matters.’ At the same time, the major in-focus image is that of an unidentified white woman whose back recalls a white-
board on which is inscribed “Consent is Sexy Mandatory.” While a semantic equivalence based on identify politics can be constructed between the two women in the photograph, both the photograph and the caption are nevertheless problematic due to their inherent threat of reinscribing stereotypes concerning Asian-American invisibility and marginality. Furthermore, the photograph and caption jointly devalue the discursive authority of Asian-American faculty while giving feminism a white
face. Thus while it is commendable to say “No” to rape by giving it powerfully provocative front page coverage, it is also urgent to reconsider the ways in which journalistic photography and caption writing can be inadvertently complicit with the prevailing cultural practices that limit the visibility of Asian Americans in mainstream media, and that interrogate the actual extent of their discursive power within our society at large.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR The recent death of Dave Baker brought up a lot of feelings in me besides the sadness of his passing. It also brought up feelings of anger and bewilderment. Besides being president of Briscoe dormitory, I was also in the IU jazz ensemble from 1973-75. However, I can’t listen to music I helped make because I’ve been told it costs $75 per concert we played. I’d
love to hear my music. I really treasure those times and that music. We were damn good, too. But almost anything from the IU music department is good. I’m now 63 years old and I’m on SSI for a disability. I cannot afford to listen to music I helped make, and it’s very frustrating. Maybe some of you can put pressure on the music department to change
their policy. Besides, I’m part of the Wiggins family who has been part of the IU family for quite some time. I know nobody gets out alive, so I’d like to hear that music before I leave here. It’s kind of on my bucket list (cue violins). Actually it’s pretty much the only thing on my bucket list. It just makes no sense to me to charge that much, especially with the
technology of today. I’d appreciate any help. Thanks. And the world is less fun and isn’t quite as nice without David Baker. RIP brotherman, thank you so very much for a hell of a musical ride. It has always been a part of me. Simba Kenyatta a.k.a. Michael Slaughter
LETTER TO THE EDITOR During the past campaign season, I had a chance to meet all of the candidates currently running to be Indiana’s ninth district’s Congressman. Each one has a different perspective that would make them a good fit for the district. However, of those candidates, I believe Brent Waltz is
the best choice for the district. He has a long history in Indiana politics while maintaining his dedication to his constituents and principles. All of this makes him the best choice. Brent has a history of supporting important legislation for Indiana. As a state senator, he has gotten
legislation passed to promote financial literacy in schools. Having siblings in school, I am happy to know they are being taught to deal with credit cards, debt, etc. Also, in 2014 Brent launched a successful campaign to make sure that we had funding in the state budget for veterans courts.
He also has a 100 percent rating from Indiana Right to Life and an A+ from the NRA, showing his dedication to life and the Second Amendment. All of this shows a history of service shows he is a perfect candidate for Congress. Brett Heinisch
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Indiana Daily Student opinion columnist Therin Showalter has no brain — or at least, that’s what one might write of his scorching hot takes on Hillary Clinton using the same argumentative finesse employed in his two 500-word Reddit comments mysteriously published in the IDS. I understand there are people who have legitimate policy differences with Clinton. I think debating those
differences is entirely a good a thing. Unfortunately, Mr. Showalter’s vapid platitudes/ Sanders campaign talking points entirely miss a legitimate discussion among Democrats about constructivism vs. incrementalism, which each candidate respectively represents. Instead, what Mr. Showalter’s opinion on Clinton really seems to be is cherrypicked and predictably sexist hot air labeling one of the
most accomplished women in history a “soulless, power-hungry politician” who, according to the columnist, is the moral equivalent of Donald Trump. If the columnist is astonished why such a sinister figure like the former Secretary of State is winning, it’s perhaps because she has exactly what he claims she lacks. In fact, she has so much of it that it’s the reason she’s helped many of the
communities now powering her campaign, which have also incidentally rejected Sanders because of the simple fact he hasn’t. Maybe Sanders doesn’t lack soul, but he must surely be lacking something else when the biggest accomplishment of his political career has been in fact been running against Clinton.

All I really need is 2 know that U believe Hoosiers remember Prince’s legacy, share thoughts on his artistry ILLUSTRATION BY MIA TORRES | IDS
By Jack Evans jackevan@indiana.edu | @JackHEvans
H
is name was Prince, and he did it all — or maybe as close to “all” as one can get in a lifetime, especially one of 57 years. He was a pop icon, a sex symbol, an obsessive producer, a guitar shredder and a film star. He fought for artists’ rights — partially by changing his name to an unpronounceable symbol — decades before the days of Tidal and surprise releases. He melded sex, God, funk and rock and roll into a musical celebration of life that yielded nearly 40 studio albums, more than 100 million record sales and an unquantifiable, diverse and devoted fanbase. Prince Rogers Nelson died Thursday at his Paisley Park estate in Minnesota, and in the days since, the world has paid tribute. The City of Minneapolis lit the I-35W Bridge in purple. Writers wrote. Fans tweeted. Musicians — Bruce Springsteen, LCD Soundsystem, Sufjan Stevens — covered him in concert. Among those remembering Prince were people with ties to IU. Four of them told the Indiana Daily Student how the man and his music touched their lives.
ANTHONY DECURTIS is an IU alumnus and a contributing editor for Rolling Stone. He interviewed Prince three times, including for a 2004 Rolling Stone cover story. On interviewing Prince “There was a very interesting combination of bravado and vulnerability. When I think about talking to Prince — on the one hand, he had all these terms. You couldn’t record the interview — he wouldn’t let you. He seemed very concerned about how he’d be represented — almost like how a child might worry about not looking the right way.” On how Prince spoke through music “When I was at Paisley Park, he wanted to jam. He wanted to play... His relationship with music was the way kids relate to music or anything they totally believe in: It was absolutely unambivalent. He’d be inside the sounds in a way that was totally unadulterated.” On Prince’s spirituality “There was a very spiritual quality of him ... When you take seriously the idea there’s another realm, you also take seriously the idea you might go there ... He was somebody who genuinely believed if you did the right things, behaved the right way, believed the right things, you were not on the same plane of dealing with mortality other people might be.” Favorite Prince song “When Doves Cry”
GLENN GASS is provost professor for music in general studies at IU. His classes on the history of rock and popular music are the longestrunning of their kind in the world, according to the Jacobs School of Music website. On Prince’s stardom “In his time, he was as big as anybody. He came of age in the early MTV days, and he and Michael Jackson broke down the color barrier on MTV ... It seemed like a return to the ‘60s, when the superstars were most exciting, and Prince was the most exciting of all.” On Prince’s live prowess “To this day, maybe the best concert I’ve ever seen was Prince and the Revolution on the ‘Purple Rain’ tour at Market Square Arena in Indianapolis. I’ve never seen a blend of showmanship and musicianship and sensory overload come together so completely. I was already a Prince fan, but I left there a total convert.” Favorite Prince song ”‘1999,’‘ Let’s Go Crazy,’ ‘Raspberry Beret’ — Prince is kind of like the Beatles. His most famous songs are his greatest.”
BRITTANY FRIESNER is the associate director of the IU Cinema, which will marathon screen Prince’s 1984 film “Purple Rain” on Monday. She spoke to the IDS via email. On screening “Purple Rain” “We wanted to pay tribute to such a legendary and talented artist, but also give his fans at IU and in Bloomington a place to celebrate his life and legacy. There happened to be a rare open spot in our calendar, and it seemed to be kismet. We chose to screen the films more than once and not to charge admission as a means to make the tribute as accessible as possible to all interested in participating.” On growing up in the Prince era “As a child of the ’80s, I grew up watching MTV, and Prince was everything. I distinctly remember the world premiere of the video for ‘When Doves Cry.’ I was captivated. Spellbound. This man turned everything about music, art, gender, sexuality, and style on its head. At the time, I didn’t understand exactly what I was witnessing, but I knew he was different, daring, unique. And I knew I should be paying attention.” Favorite Prince song “It would be impossible to say I have only one favorite Prince song, but right now, ‘Erotic City’ seems to be the one I click on first when shuffling all of the Prince songs in my iTunes.”
BRETT HOFFMAN is a musician and a sophomore at IU. He writes and records music under the name Brownies in Cinema and plays percussion in Wheel of the Year. On how Prince inspired him musically “My dad was always super into Prince. He also plays guitar and was really interested in getting me to play guitar. When Prince played the Super Bowl, he said, ‘This guitarist I really like is playing the Super Bowl, and I want you to watch it with me.’ That was the first time I thought playing guitar was really cool. It fucking rained when Prince played ‘Purple Rain,’ and who can be so cool as to command nature during a performance?” On Prince’s artistic autonomy “He’s primarily remembered as a solo artist, as far as handling all the aspects of the songs ... and he definitely played a hand in the recording. He’s an inspiration as a modern pop artist who had a big hand in recording his music.” Favorite Prince song ”‘Purple Rain’ — that’s the performance I first saw. It’s one of his most popular songs for a reason.”

IU basketball legend recounts college days Lionel Lim lalimwei@indiana.edu
Pictures of his family sit on his desk, next to his computer. An album cover of Eric Clapton hangs on the wall behind him, and his desk is occupied with papers and books. This is Dr. Steven Green’s office at Team Green Dentistry, his dental practice, in Fishers, Indiana. To many who are old enough in Indiana, he is more than Dr. Green in the white coat — he is one of IU’s best basketball players. He is part of the 1,000-point club at IU, was legendary former IU Coach Bob Knight’s first recruit, was part of the 1975 team that went 18-0 in the Big Ten and had a 31-game win streak. Basketball memorabilia litter the top of his cupboards. There is a signed ball and pictures from his time at IU decorated neatly atop the cupboards. The 6-foot-7 forward had offers from multiple schools, including Kentucky and Vanderbilt, before Knight paid him a visit at Silver Creek High School in April 1971. “He had just signed, and my father, who was the coach and teacher (at my high school), came and got me out of class and said he wanted me to meet the new coach of Indiana,” Green said. “I remember til this day my dad saying, ‘And I want you to go in and listen to him.’” Knight had already won Green’s father’s favor with his vision and plans for IU’s program, and after that conversation, Green said he believed in Knight’s plans as well, even though Green admitted that at the time he didn’t know who Knight was. “He was talking and said, ‘By the time you’re a senior, we should be able to win a national championship and be one of the top teams,” he said. During his junior year — which was in 1974 — under Knight, Green was the leading scorer. He averaged 16.7 points per game, shot 54.5 percent from the field and was a first team, All-Big Ten selection. For Green, arriving at those stats was a culmination of meticulous and constant improvement from his freshman to sophomore to junior year. John Kamstra, one of Green’s teammates on the 1975 team, also saw Green as someone who knew how to play to his strengths and was
aware of his weaknesses. “He was a very good team player, a great shooter, defensively wasn’t the quickest guy in the world, but knew that so he played well within the team’s defensive concept,” Kamstra said. “He played within himself. He didn’t try to go outside what his abilities were, I think.” More importantly, Kamstra said he believed Green was able to bring balance to the 1975 team that went unbeaten in the Big Ten that year. It was Green’s personality and character as a captain that kept his team on track, Kamstra said. “He had a great sense of humor,” Kamstra said. “There were many times when we were playing for Coach Knight that things can get pretty tense during the course of practice or game, and Steve just had a really good way of dealing with that.” In his fourth year with the Hoosiers, Green was seeing Knight’s plan unfold before him. Green, as one of the captains, had gathered everyone, and the message was clear. The team needed to win every game because it was the only way Knight would be less harsh with them. The Hoosiers started that year with a 113-60 win over Tennessee Tech at Assembly Hall. The victory was followed by a 74-70 win over No. 7 Kansas in overtime and a 98-74 win over No. 15 Kentucky. The Hoosiers headed into the Big Ten season 11-0 and opened their Big Ten campaign with a 107-55 victory against Michigan State. IU kept winning and beat fierce rivals No. 20 Purdue, 104-71, at Assembly Hall, which allowed IU to go 8-0. The Hoosiers won their next seven games before facing Purdue again at Mackey Arena. It was the first half of the game when forward Scott May broke his left arm. “The worst thing that could happen to such a team is to pluck one important player out of it,” Green said. Green said the partnership between May and him was what made the team tick. If May did not shoot, then Green would have a go himself. Shell-shocked and without arguably its best player, IU struggled to beat a team they had earlier trounced at Assembly Hall. But the Hoosiers still managed to pull off a 8382 victory to clinch the Big Ten title at Mackey Arena. “Scott went down, and Steven really picked up the

slack,” Kamstra said. “From that point forward, I think he really elevated his play to help with the whole issue of being a man down.” Green finished the game with 29 points, including IU’s final three points. The Hoosiers completed the season undefeated and faced Kentucky in the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament. Without May, IU lost 92-90 to the same Kentucky team that it had beaten earlier in the season. The 1976 team would go on to complete an undefeated season. Sometimes, Green still wonders what could have happened if May was healthy for the entirety of the 1975
season, especially because the team was deemed one of the most talented ever. “I always say that if you give us Scott on our team in ’75, we’d kick the crap out of ’76’s team,” Green said. “But if ’76 gets to have Scott then — so we’ll need to have Scott on both our teams, then we’ll find out.” However, Green admitted his talent was inadequate at the professional level, and it was getting obvious pretty quickly. This prompted him to enroll in dental school at IU, an enrollment that was put on hold until 1980. “I made a deal with the dental school,” Green said. “I told them that I was going to play professional basketball, even though they admitted
me right out of college. They didn’t guarantee anything, but at the end of my playing career, they interviewed me again and fortunately took a chance on me.” Now, Green may be remembered more for his contributions off the court. Recently, the ARC of Indiana, an organization that helps people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, honored Green and his wife Lana. Green has been host to a golf tournament for 25 years and has raised more than $1 million for the ARC. He has been able to use his time as a former college and professional ball player to attract competitors, as well as to bring his teammates in to
raise the profile of the golf tournament. “He got Tom Abernethy to help out at times,” said John Dickerson, retired executive director of the ARC in Indiana, who has been Green’s friend for the last 30 years. “He reached out to Quinn Buckner when he was with the Pacers and got Quinn and the Pacers involved. He raised the profile a lot, and the only person that doesn’t think that Steve is a celebrity is Steve himself.” The ARC named a training institute after Green and Carl Erskine, a former baseball player who had pitched at the World Series and who was also a big contributor.

IU bats go silent in 5-0 shutout loss to Notre Dame Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94
INDIANAPOLIS — He couldn’t quite put into words how he was feeling. Junior outfielder Craig Dedelow had just watched his teammates leave nine runners on base, including five in scoring positon. Then, while he was standing on Victory Field after a 5-0 loss to Notre Dame, he was asked to put into words his
feelings about the frustrations of leaving that many runners on base. “That’s just baseball,” Dedelow said. “That’s why you play the game. I don’t really know.” That last part was said as his voice trailed off and he shrugged his shoulders, indicating he really couldn’t explain what it felt like. Dedelow went 3-for-4 himself, with the one out being a line drive that happened to be hit directly at Notre
Dame’s first baseman. But he accounted for half of the Hoosiers’ hits, and unfortunately for his teammates, none of those came with anyone on base. Three times in the first three innings, IU left a runner standing on second base to end the inning. The first inning saw junior first baseman Austin Cangelosi pop out to the pitchers mound to leave runners on SEE SHUTOUT, PAGE 9

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 Training Institute is embedded in a Marriott Courtyard in Muncie, Indiana. The Institute trains adults with disabilities on a wide number of careers within hospitality and healthcare. “Our oldest daughter, Jessica, who is now 33, has Down syndrome, and she is the catalyst for us being involved in that community and learning about other individuals who have special challenges,” Lana Green said. “They (the ARC) were instrumental in helping us on numerous occasions when we were in need of advice or support or direction in her educational community and career.” It seems Green had unknowingly contributed to the ARC while he was a basketball player. “It’s illegal now in the NCAA rules, but it wasn’t then, and schools could sign things and donate them,” Dickerson said. “We bought a basketball, and I drove down for a practice, and Assistant Coach Dave Bliss was there along with Coach Knight, and he had all the players sign it. And out of the blue he asked if I would like a picture with the team.” Years later, fate brought Green and Dickerson together again. Though Dickerson said Green had forgotten about the picture because the team had done so many of those things, Green said it was interesting their lives had already crossed before. Besides the ARC, Green also contributes to the Donated Dental Services and has completed more than $35,000 worth of treatment on 13 patients.
Nowadays, his basketball achievements seem like a footnote to Green — something to keep high on the shelves but not to mention constantly. “I think he’s just very humble. He doesn’t want to showcase (basketball) at all, he’s just not that type of person,” said Laura Young, who has been on Green’s staff for 15 years. “He’s thankful that people recognize him and watched him in the past, he’s thankful for the things that he was able to do, but he’s just not one to showcase it and go ‘guess who I am.’” Young said that is reflective of Green’s character as a whole, and he is a humble person who would rather speak about what he is doing now than what happened back then. “Some younger patients do not know that he has a huge background in basketball, and it’s usually the older ones that know, but he does not like to make that known,” Young said. “He kind of holds that in a little bit and does not use it to his advantage.” But Green said one never knows what will happen in life and he believes in giving his best and ensuring that he always has choices open — something he has been doing since he started school. Green said he believes in ensuring that he always has choices open for him, because to him sometimes a twist of fate could result in a totally different outcome. “Who knows? If we won the national championship my senior year, I would have been even more arrogant than I turned out to be, and I would have been hated, and my life would have veered off to the left,” Green said. “Who knows?”

first and second. In the second inning, junior second baseman Tony Butler fouled out to third to leave a runner standing on second base. Then it was Cangelosi again in the third inning, when he struck out to leave runners on first and second. By the time the Hoosiers advanced another runner into scoring position, the Fighting Irish already led by five runs. “We had a couple guys who really had an opportunity to get that game going for us,” IU Coach Chris Lemonis said. “We’re not getting an average at-bat. We’re getting a really bad at-bat in those situations. I think we had five pop ups to the infield or foul territory.” The Hoosiers ended the game batting 2-for-15 with runners on base and 0-for8 with runners in scoring position. In the middle of a teamwide scoring slump last season, Lemonis started tracking what he calls quality at-bats. If a batter has a productive at-bat that helps the general cause of the Hoosiers, Lemonis and his coaches count it as productive. He said he didn’t spend much time charting quality at-bats Tuesday night. The Hoosiers weren’t being patient at the plate, Lemonis said. Once a runner got into scoring position, they were swinging at the first decent pitch they saw instead of continuing to work the count and wait for the best pitch to hit. Dedelow echoed this

sentiment. As the Hoosier deficit decreased, so did the desperation. When Notre Dame went up five runs, IU hitters started trying to win the game by themselves, which is the main thing Dedelow said needs to change before Wednesday night’s game against Xavier. “It’s just more of a team approach instead of trying to take it on yourself to try and hit a five-run home run with nobody on,” Dedelow said. “Just more of a team approach at the plate.”

Second baseman Cavan Biggio, Notre Dame’s leadoff hitter, stepped to the dish after the double from Lidge and connected on a 1-0 fastball. Biggio placed it beyond the right field wall to increase the Irish lead to three. “I thought the game was

The characters in a children’s story run the gamut of emotion in a way that is big and bright, O’Connell said. The full-fledged emotion and clownish aspect of the silly characters make the show appealling to all ages. “The characters’ emotions are so pure and on a couple of pitches tonight,” Lemonis said. “We gave them a pitch right in the middle of the zone, and they took advantage of it.” Meanwhile, Notre Dame starting pitcher Michael Hearne was carving up the IU hitters. Although they had at least one base runner throughout the first five innings, junior outfielder Craig Dedelow had three of the five Hoosier hits as seven Hoosiers were left on base. “We had some opportunities early, and we didn’t capitalize when we should have,”
earnest,” O’Connell said. “With grownup shows, there are a lot of difficult complications and the characters have to subtly convey emotion. With this show, it’s all right at the forefront. The characters tend to go full force in whatever they’re doing, and there’s a certain joy to that.” Dedelow said. “We’ll get back at it tomorrow with Xavier, and I’m positive that we’ll be playing good baseball.” The second crucial missed pitch Lemonis talked about came in the bottom of the fifth with freshman right-handed pitcher Pauly Milto on the mound. Milto hit Lidge to start the inning but then recorded two straight strikeouts to settle things down. With two outs, Kutsulis would not let Milto have his way. The Irish outfielder cranked a shot almost identical to Biggio’s home run, which put Notre
