Maryland frustrates Moren By Stefan Krajisnik stefkraj@iu.edu | @skrajisnik3
IU women’s basketball Coach Teri Moren could hardly hold herself up with less than two minutes remaining in the third quarter of Sunday’s matchup against No. 11 Maryland. Slouched in the arms of assistant coach Janese Constantine, Moren looked on in disbelief after freshman guard Grace Berger was called for a travel. “You can control a lot of things,” Moren said. “There are a lot of things you can’t control either, when I think about this game.” But the travel wasn’t quite the low point of Moren’s frustrations in IU’s 76-56 loss. Midway through the third quarter, Moren reached her boiling point after disagreeing with a no-call as sophomore guard Bendu Yeaney drove to the basket. After shouting at the referees, she was assessed her first technical foul of the season. Moren was then held back by her assistants when she stepped out onto the court. As a result, Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall reached its loudest point of the night with boos raining down from the stands. The boos quickly turned into a chant of “Teri! Teri! Teri!” While it did bring a slight spurt of energy into the stadium, Moren said the technical foul was simply based off her getting a good look at the play and wanting to protect her players. “Maryland has shown on film a propensity to foul,” Moren said. “They foul, and obviously we weren’t getting those calls today. That was what was frustrating, and you feel badly for your team because they’re playing to the game plan, and yet it didn’t seem like things were going the way that we had hoped they would or expected.” IU came out with high energy in the first quarter for the second-consecutive game. However, the Hoosiers could not get themselves going in the final three frames. Maryland controlled momentum with its ability to convert 25 fast-break points, made easy in part due to 20 IU turnovers.

56-76 “Giving the ball to them, them getting layups in transitions, just because we turned the ball over,” sophomore guard Jaelynn Penn said. “We got ourselves with that. That really was the game-changer.” Junior guard Kaila Charles led the way for the Terrapins, scoring 25 points Sunday, 21 of which came in the first half. “She was getting a lot of wide-open layups because they were getting steals,” Yeaney said. “She’s gonna make her shots. She’s a great player, but I think we did a decent job on her in the half court. It was just our turnovers led to open layups for her.” While Maryland’s leading scorer made plays, it was the opposite for IU’s top offensive threat.
Junior guard Ali Patberg came into the game averaging more points than Charles but has trended in the wrong direction of late. After scoring a total of 10 points in her previous two games, Patberg came out flat against the Terrapins. She managed to score just three points, all of which came late in the fourth quarter with the game well out of reach. “What we don’t do is give up on her,” Moren said. “I have to believe that some of it is mental, right now inside of her head. We’ve got to figure out how we can go back and show her clips of things when she was really good.” With the loss, IU is now 16-5 on the season with a 5-4 record in the Big Ten. The Hoosiers’ next game is at 7 p.m. Thursday at No. 14 Rutgers. SEE MORE PHOTOS, PAGE 5
Students can report icy spots across campus By Alex Hardgrave ahardgra@iu.edu | @a_hardgrave
This week is set to bring cold temperatures and ice that could make the walk to class slippery, but students have a way to report those potentially dangerous spots. Anyone can call the IU Control Center, part of IU Facility Operations, at 812-8558728 to report icy areas almost anywhere on campus other than at residence halls. This service is nothing new, Beth Feickert, IU Capital Planning project specialist, said in an email. Someone will answer the phone any time, every day of the week. IU’s Twitter page and the
A 19-year-old man is being charged for allegedly raping a 20-year-old woman. The woman told police John Schwartz raped her between 2 and 3 a.m. Friday at her house, Bloomington Police Department Sgt. Shane Rasche said. Police said Schwartz is an IU student. Police listed his address as the Sigma Pi fraternity house. The woman reported the rape around 2:30 p.m. Friday at the police station. BPD could not confirm whether she is an IU student. She told police she started talking to Schwartz on Tuesday over Instagram. Schwartz came over to the woman’s house Thursday night. When the woman, one of her roommates and Schwartz were in the living room, Schwartz kept suggesting they go to the woman’s bedroom to lay down, she told police. All three of them went to the bedroom where Schwartz and the woman lay in the bed together while the roommate sat on the floor. The roommate, who told police she began to feel uncomfortable, left. Once she left, Schwartz made an advance on the woman, police said. She told police she turned him down and thought he understood. However, she reported he began grabbing her and then raped her. Police said she told him no at least 10 times.
Inside IU Bloomington newsletter have helped to make the service more widely known in the past few years, Feickert said. IU Student Government chief of staff Isabel Mishkin said she was not aware of the number but thinks it’s a good service for IU to provide. She said she feels it is even more important to monitor slick spots because of students who often ride e-scooters. “This is a really valuable service that should be better advertised,” she said.

President Trump signed a short-term bill to end the nation’s longest-ever government shutdown Friday. But the bill only lasts through February 15, meaning relief may be temporary. Julio Alonso, Hoosier Hills Food Bank Executive Director and CEO, said the shutdown forced over 8,000 Monroe County residents who receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits to ration their money more carefully because February’s allotted SNAP benefits were given out two weeks early.
“We forget the fear that’s happening for all of these people. We just don’t think about it.” Debra Morrow, Middle Way House Executive Director
“SNAP is a lifeline,” Alonso said. “Even temporarily losing that or having to adjust creates an issue.” Benefits were given ALEX DERYN | IDS

Campers hope for free Joella's Hot Chicken By Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @annabelaguiar
Lit by the glow of the drive-thru sign, a line of tents circled Joella’s Hot Chicken in the January cold. It’s a promotion Joella’s does for the grand opening of every new restaurant, and the new Bloomington location on Third Street was no different: the first 100 people in line at 8 a.m. Thursday would receive 52 coupons, each redeemable for a purchase of $9.50 or less. Used once a week, as per the coupons’ instructions, that’s a year’s worth of free chicken platters. Bloomington’s chicken hopefuls gathered their sleeping bags, tents, blankets, propane tanks and hand warmers. What, just sit outside a restaurant for a day in exchange for free chicken for a year? Easy. IU sophomores Hannah Frebel and Kelly Berry were first in line Wednesday night, camped out in a red and gray tent. They heard about the promotion on Instagram and bought a tent Tuesday night. The two set up their tent at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday in the rain. They bought towels to mop up water inside the tent. They both had classes Wednesday, so they took shifts on tent duty to avoid losing their spot. “I asked a lot of my friends to do it with us,” Berry said. “They were like – “ “You’re psychopaths,” Frebel said. The glass doors to Joella’s sat a couple feet away from their tent flap, offering a peek into the sleek red and yellow interior of the restaurant. They could see a sign on the

wall shouting “HOT” as they sat in feel-it-in-your-fingers, need-to-wear-extra-socks, 27-degree weather. It was only going to get colder, with the night’s low hitting 21. Later, it snowed. Inside, the floor was painted with a red silhouette of a chicken on a circular yellow background. The paint was not yet dry on the tail feathers of the Joella’s logo. Joella’s isn’t the only chicken place in town. The new Bloomington location is flanked by competitors; a KFC sits across the street, and some of the campers were eating dinner from the Chick-fil-A next door. Many of
the campers, including Berry and Frebel, had never actually eaten at a Joella’s Hot Chicken before. But still, they flocked to the parking lot. For the chicken, yes, but also for the story. Three friends sat on the asphalt by the perimeter of the restaurant, huddled under blankets. Anna Nelson, 21, and Laura Ziegler, 21, are headed to Thailand on Feb. 2 for two months on a mission trip. They decided to camp out at Joella’s with a third friend, 19-year-old Jazmyn Sanders, just to say they did it. “Just think about it,” Nelson said. “For years to come, I’ll be able to tell my children
that I waited in the cold for hours for chicken.” The three drove from Columbus, Indiana, with Sanders behind the wheel. On the way, she said, she blew a stop sign. A police officer pulled them over. He walked up to the window. “I’m sorry, I’m just really excited about free chicken,” Sanders told the officer. He let them off with a warning. Some campers sat in parked cars instead of the cold, a contingent that many of the tent-dwellers described as cheaters. Others spent the night in less conventional
camping accommodations. On the other side of Joella’s, a man sat with a blue tarp covering his body and a jug of apple cider at his feet. He was so still most of his fellow campers assumed he was asleep. The man in the tarp declined a request for comment. Alliayah Mays, 20, had no tent or car with her. Her set up for the night was two blankets, a small pillow and a bottle of white cherry Gatorade, all laid out on the parking lot asphalt. She also brought a 21-ounce cup from McDonald’s to pee in, but decided she didn’t need it after seeing the trees surrounding the restaurant.
“I can barely afford to pay my rent, so buying groceries is a hassle,” she said. “I’m balling on a budget, so free food for a year would really help out.” She said she was too cheap to buy a tent, but she felt like her fingers were about to fall off. If it got too miserable, she said, she would just leave. Her friends had tried to talk her out of staying the night. “They said this is some white bullshit,” she said. “Only white people camp out for some bullshit in the cold.” At 11:30 p.m., hopefuls were still arriving. With no way to know if they were within the 100-person parameter, all they could do was wait and see. For entertainment, Joella’s hired DJ KG, a member of the DJ group Spinnin' Sauce, to play music for the campers. DJ KG stayed warm inside the restaurant as music blared over speakers to the outside world. In the morning, before the doors opened and the promised poultry passes were distributed, campers formed a single-file line outside the door as Bruce Rosenblatt, regional director of operations for Joella’s Hot Chicken, addressed the crowd. “When I say ‘hot,” you say ‘chicken,’” Rosenblatt said into a microphone, his voice booming from the speakers. “Hot!” The crowd yelled in response: “Chicken!” “I can’t hear you,” he said. “HOT!” “CHICKEN,” they screamed, with all the force of a hungry, half-frozen horde. “CHICKEN,” they roared, like a loud prayer from a rowdy congregation. Then, at last, chicken.
44 Indiana invasive plants Student Life Committee could be banned from sale plans spring programs By Joey Bowling

Marijuana isn’t the only plant causing trouble in Indiana. Invasive plant species are destroying the state’s natural diversity, and a new rule hopes to curb their spread. The new measure would ban the sale of 44 different plants in nurseries and landscaping businesses. While the rule is awaiting Gov. Holcomb’s approval, if it is passed, commercial sellers would have one year to sell existing stock. Invasive species outcompete native ones because of the lack of predators to control them. These invasive plants can destroy the natural biodiversity of an area by taking it over and removing many native species. For example, IU conservation biology professor Vicky Meretsky said, the invasive species garlic mustard is interfering with the reproduction of certain butterfly species. Butterflies lay their eggs on mustard species for larval growth. However, garlic mustard has such a high concentration of mustard oils that it kills the larvae. There are some species not on the list of 44, such as kudzu, that are likely to spread further into Indiana because of climate change, Meretsky said. Kudzu, known as “the vine that ate the South,” strangles trees and deprives them of sunlight. “It’s a vine-y species that will crawl over the tops of trees, over the tops of aban-
Catwalks, musical performances, fashion and culture: IU Student Government’s Student Life Committee plans to combine all of these into an International Fashion Show celebrating the different cultures at IU — the first of its kind. The fashion show is just one of the new programs the committee is planning for the semester. The team is looking to present the international fashion show, create a women’s section in one of the gyms on campus and do a helmet giveaway for scooterriding students, among other projects. The Student Life Committee might be the broadest committee on IUSG, said Maggie Hopkins, IUSG vice president of administration. This year’s IUSG administration grouped the academic affairs and student affairs committees together to better take on an wider array of issues and projects, Hopkins said. “Anything that comes up that is within our scope we are willing to hear and willing to address in whatever way we can,” said Amna Ahmed, co-chief of the Student Life Committee. The projects the Student Life Committee undertakes vary in topic but all aim to better student life at IU, Ahmed said. “I wanted to be involved in something that has depth and long-term commitment,"

doned cars, over the tops of barns and houses if it’s not stopped,” she said. Meretsky said many gardeners accidentally introduce invasive species because of their beauty without knowing of the native substitutes, which look similar. IU law professor Robert Fischman said prohibiting the sale of invasive plants at the state level would help federal law prohibit interstate and international trade. “Each state has to decide for itself what species should be prohibited from commercial sales within the state,” Fischman said. The problem isn’t the species itself, Fischman said. The problem comes from the competition invasive species pose to native ones. “It’s not like poison ivy that is itself a harm-creating species when you rub up against it,” Fischman said. “It may be a species that’s benign.” Education and outreach

is a key factor in combating invasive species spread, said Ray Chattin, Southern Indiana Cooperative Invasives Management chair. Chattin said his cooperative provides public work days where volunteers go out and help remove invasive species from the area. The organization also helps gardeners plant native species. “When you tell a gardener all the bad stuff he has in his garden that needs to be removed because it’s harmful to the ecosystem, it’s nice to have an alternative,” Chattin said. Chattin said invasive species are a man-made problem because of plant imports and not stopping invasive species sooner. “It’s a situation that’s not gonna heal itself unless we intervene,” Chattin said. “We’re talking tremendous habitat loss and degradation of our biodiversity, our forestry, our wetlands.”

she said. "I’m proud to be on a team of go-getters.” Ahmed, her co-chief Ayinde Rochon and their team are looking to address anything it can to help students. “The people that are in IUSG, they care," Ahmed said. "It’s not about resume building, it’s not about, ‘Oh look at what I got done,’ it’s about actually having an impact in helping students." International Fashion Show IUSG is presenting its first International Fashion Show with multicultural performances this spring. It is planned for 7 to 9 p.m March 25 in the Indiana Memorial Union Alumni Hall. “We want to create an opportunity to get people who aren’t usually in the same room in the same room and looking at what we all have to bring to the table,” Ahmed said. Ahmed said she is talking to multiple student associations and organizations about the event, hoping to partner with some of them to promote it and make it the best it can be. Groups and models will choose what they want to wear and how they want to present their culture, Ahmed said. “We’re hoping that they come in with an idea of how they want to express themselves and how they want everyone else to understand their own culture,” she said. Ahmed said there will also be an opportunity to perform a song, dance, poem or any-
thing else students feel represents their culture accurately. “The International Fashion Show is probably the biggest project that the Student Life Committee is working on, and it is one that we are really excited about as an entire student government executive branch,” Hopkins said. Women’s section in gym One Student Life Committee goal for the semester is to designate a women’s section in the Student Recreational Sports Center, though logistics are still being worked out, Ahmed said. “A lot of women don’t feel like they’re particularly welcomed in more maledominated areas of the gym,” she said. “Just having a safer space for female students to be able to work out and feel comfortable and be able to balance their lives with their physical and mental health is really important.” Helmet Giveaway The committee is also discussing potentially giving away helmets to emphasize student safety in the wake of e-scooters taking over campus. They wanted to do this in the fall, but weren’t able to get the program off the ground quickly enough before escooter companies removed their scooters from campus for the winter, Hopkins said. Hopkins is hoping to work with Student Life to have a helmet giveaway sponsored by IUSG to encourage safe riding habits, she said.

New bills could enhance synthetic drug penalties
A guide to IU’s various sanctions can be announced when organizations violate university policy or the IU Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Conduct. “It’s like, ‘Hey, this wasn’t a severe incident, but it was a violation of code,’” Spotts said. Any rule an IU student is expected to follow, student organizations are expected to do the same, she said. Requirements range from respecting the dignity of others to maintaining academic integrity.
By Christine Stephenson cistephe@iu.edu | @cistephenson23
Each year, the Office of Student Conduct places various sanctions on student organizations. Although all organizations sanctioned in the 2018-2019 school year so far have been chapters of greek life organizations, it can happen to any of the more than 750 student organizations at IU. Sanctions are not punishments but rather a step toward solving a problem, said Libby Spotts, associate dean and director of student conduct. “We want to address problems at all levels,” she said. “We don’t want to wait until it gets out of hand.”
Disciplinary Probation Organizations are placed on disciplinary probation for a certain time period when they are not in good standing with the university, Spotts said. If they can complete a series of requirements decided between the organization and the university, then they can expect the probation to be lifted at the end of the time period. This series of requirements differs from one organization to another but can include actions such as attending educational classes or constructing a safety plan. If the requirements are not met or the organization is involved in any other kind of misconduct, then it will be reassessed and might be placed on a more severe sanction, such as suspension or expulsion.
Cease and Desist Cease and desist is not a sanction, but rather a preventative action, Spotts said. Organizations are placed on cease and desist to prevent anything dangerous from happening while under investigation, she said. Investigations can begin because of alleged hazing or sexual misconduct, for example. While an organization is placed on cease and desist, members cannot have meetings or activities. In the case of a greek chapter, no new members can be recruited during this step, Spotts said. “It allows us to look into their situation without the ongoing threat of harm,” Spotts said. “It’s like when everyone needs to stop for a minute until we figure stuff out.”
Social Restriction Social restrictions temporarily prevent organizations from organizing or participating in events, parties or ceremonies. For example, a greek chapter on social restriction cannot participate in the Greek Assessment and Awards Program, where fraternity and sorority members honor

exceptional chapters and individuals, according to the Student Affairs website. Spotts said social restrictions mean a privilege is being taken away. The extent of social restrictions can vary based on each organization’s situation, she said. Some organizations are only restricted from some events, and some are completely banned. Campus Restriction This sanction is very similar to social restriction, Spotts said, but it prohibits either some or all university activities specifically. Spotts said if an organization is placed on campus restriction, members might not be able to participate in the Student Involvement Fair. This can hinder their chances to recruit new members. Deferred Suspension Sometimes, organizations will be placed on deferred suspension before being placed on actual suspension. Deferred suspension means the organization has
done something wrong and will receive a lesser sanction but has shown it is taking steps to ensure the wrongdoing will not happen again, Spotts said. “It’s like taking a suspension and putting it on a shelf,” she said. This sanction is similar to disciplinary probation in that organizations must meet a set of requirements and not have any other violations during a certain time frame. Otherwise, they will be suspended immediately. Organizations can be placed on deferred suspension regardless of the severity of their violations, Spotts said. Suspension If an organization is suspended, it will be forced to stop all activities and disband. The length of suspension varies depending on the situation but will be proposed by the Administrative Conference Panel and decided by the dean of students, according to the Student Affairs website.
The Indiana Senate unanimously approved a bill last week that was aimed to enhance penalties for crimes involving synthetic drugs. The bill will now move to the state house for a vote. Senate Bill 28 focuses on synthetic drugs that are designed to be similar to illegal drugs such as marijuana or methamphetamine. Users of these substances, sometimes called "designer drugs," are often told they will experience the same effects as with the illegal drug being imitated, but this is usually not true. If passed, the bill would allow those charged with making or dealing synthetic drugs to receive the same penalties as crimes for the drug being imitated. Synthetic drug crimes are usually misdemeanors or infractions. This bill would make them felony charges like other illegal drug crimes. For example, someone charged with dealing a variety of synthetic marijuana, such as spice, would receive the same penalties as someone charged with dealing genuine marijuana. “Especially for college kids, you can’t tell the difference between a bath salt product being marketed as weed as opposed to actual weed,” claimed Sen. Mike Bohacek, R-Michiana Shores, who authored the bill. “It looks, feels, tastes, smells the same, but it’s not.” Rep. Sharon Negele,
R-Attica, a sponsor of the bill, also noted the negative effects of synthetic marijuana on young people. “It’s very sad because they’re being told this is just like marijuana and of course it’s not,” Negele said. “It’s very intoxicating and very violent to your body.” Bohacek said toughening the state’s synthetic drug laws is important to him because he has seen the dangerous effects of synthetic drugs on them first-hand. Negele authored a similar bill moving through the state house, House Bill 1186, that is expected to be voted on next week. She said it’s not unusual for there to be similar bills on each side so there’s a greater chance one will be passed. These two bills will likely ultimately be combined into one, she said. Negele, who is on the House Committee on Courts and Criminal Code, said she was glad to help when the Indiana Prosecuting Attorneys Council asked her to sponsor the bill in the House. She said she has talked with her local prosecutors about the growing problems of synthetic drugs and hopes these proposed changes will be a helpful tool for prosecutors around the state. “You can try to list all the synthetic drugs out there, but they’re constantly evolving, so you can’t keep up in your statutes,” Negele said. “Hopefully the way we’re defining it now, we’ll be able to stay ahead of any new designer drugs coming out.”
IU wins Crowe-Warken Debate at US Naval Academy By Julia Locanto jlocanto@iu.edu | @julialocanto
An IU team won the Crowe-Warken Debate Tournament Jan. 19-21 at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, for the first time. Five IU teams attended the tournament this year, and over 50 teams competed overall. IU’s winning duo was senior Harry Aaronson, team president, and junior Cameron Dehmlow Dunne. Aaronson and Dunne’s team was ranked 15th in the country before the debate, debate team coach Brian DeLong said. This year’s debate topic centered around restricting the power of the president and executive authority. Aaronson said students debated about President Trump and presidential power in general, addressing

concerns like nuclear weapons or foreign relations. The debate began with eight preliminary rounds, followed by an elimination round, which was judged by graduate students, professors and debate coaches. “There was an excellent quality of competition from the other contestants,” Aar-
onson said. “We competed against several Big Ten rivals and other major national competitors. It was very satisfying and exciting to come out on top.” The tournament started Saturday and ended Monday. Aaronson said the winners were not announced until 12:30 a.m. Tuesday.

The Crowe-Warken competition has been around since 1965 and brings in almost 200 students from around the country, DeLong said. The IU Debate Team was established in 2010 and now includes about 20 students. For the Crowe-Warken Debate Tournament, pairs
of two competed from the IU team. IU attended the Crowe-Warken Debate Tournament three times in the past eight years but never placed first until this year. IU’s debate season begins in September, but Aaronson said preparation for the Crowe-Warken tournament began before the
school year started. Aaronson said the debate team arrives on campus a week before classes start and continues to meet weekly and research individually throughout the school year. DeLong said he helps students solidify their stances for the debate and does any last minute research students need while they’re at the competition. He said the team puts in 30 to 40 hours of work a week. DeLong said he is proud of Aaronson and Dunne’s positivity. “The duo arrived in Annapolis knowing they should be in the championship round of the Naval Academy,” DeLong said. “This team has shown that Indiana University has Hoosier students with the intellectual strength and drive to compete against any university in the nation.”

SIDE WITH SANDERS
EDITORIAL BOARD
Trump’s transgender military ban is bigotry at its finest Elsbeth Sanders is a sophomore in molecular life sciences.
On Tuesday, Jan. 22, the Supreme Court upheld the Trump administration’s ban on transgender individuals serving in the military. While this ban comes with a set of legal jargon and technicalities, don’t let that fool you. Hidden — or not so hidden — transphobia is what guides this policy. Under these new guidelines, a trans person must have no desire for hormones or surgery, and can’t have gender dysphoria. They also must serve as their birth sex. Essentially, trans people can technically serve, but only if they pretend like they’re cisgender. Asking someone to deny part of his or her identity or be barred from the military is a non-choice. This ban is incredibly regressive and is based on extremely flawed statements made by Trump. On July 26, 2017, Trump posted a series of tweets, saying, “After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you.” These tweets need to be broken down and addressed in parts. The policy was meant to ban all trans people from service in the military “in any capacity.” This ban seems to be entirely a desire to discriminate against a group of people who already have the odds stacked against them. The next part of Trump’s tweet addresses the effectiveness of the military should trans individuals be allowed to serve. He insinuates that trans members of the military make it weaker. That’s a very interesting sentiment, considering trans people have been legally and
openly serving in the army since June 2016, and the U.S. has since kept its position as the strongest military in the world. Even Trump himself has called the military great. The U.S. military has a history of being outrageously strong, and the inclusion of trans people never changed that. This brings us to the controversial topic of the cost of gender confirmation surgery. As a Trump supporter on Twitter so elegantly puts it, “The military cannot become the go to place for free gender reassignment surgery.” This argument immediately collapses under scrutiny. In high schools around the country, recruiters come and tell groups of often lowincome students about how the military is their only option for affording college. The military actively promotes itself as a place to get very expensive services paid for. To actively seek out desperate students but turn away trans people who may or may not want a comparatively cheap surgery is the peak of hypocrisy. When looking at the numbers, the military has a yearly budget of $598.5 billion. The yearly cost for trans service members’ confirmation surgeries is $2.4-8.4 million. The military is not short on money to spend on its members. With all of this in mind, the argument in Trump’s tweet has entirely fallen apart. At its center is just blatant transphobia. There is no rational, strategic or budgetary reason to ban trans people. It is only fearmongering and ostracization. The acceptance of oppressed groups in the military often reflects their acceptance in society. It sets a standard, and when a ban such as this comes into effect, it lowers that standard. If I sound angry, it’s because I am. The American people should be, too. This ban is already causing a new slew of debates about the basic human rights of trans people. We cannot allow this to happen. A policy founded in such bigotry must be pushed against with full force and fought at every turn. We owe it to our trans compatriots to help secure their rights. elssande@iu.edu
TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
President Trump speaks during a roundtable with Hispanic pastors in the Roosevelt Room of the White House on Jan. 25 in Washington, D.C.
IU's safety policies are dangerous IU stresses having a “Culture of Care” which is an “initiative focused on creating a campus culture in which members of the Indiana University Bloomington community demonstrate ‘care’ for one another.” This statement should not only be expected of students. Authorities need to adapt this “Culture of Care” by prioritizing public safety budgeting and resources. Although IU has public safety resources for students, they do the minimal job of actually keeping students safe. Safety Escort is an IU service that provides free rides to the community within Bloomington city limits. The focus is to ensure student safety, but it is not an emergency service. It's hours of operation are from 8 p.m. to 1:45 a.m 7 days a week, according to Elizabeth Sexton, a student employee for the safety escort services. Users can download an app in which they choose a destination and receive an estimated time of arrival by the service. Safe transportation is crucial to the overall public safety of campus. Safety Escort is unreliable so students do not use the app as often as they could. According to the IU Safety Escort website, there are only three minivans, which does not reflect the student body of over 40,000 students. This causes wait times to be long and inconsistent. As a result, people will often cancel their ride. If a student does not have money to pay for an Uber or another source of transportation, they are put in a dangerous situation. To be frank,

Safety Escort is a very inconvenient service. Each student is also limited to 16 rides per semester. Sixteen might sound like a respectable amount, but when there are around 100 days in a semester that is an issue. Nobody likes to pay for rides if they do not have to. If a student runs out of uses there is a high chance they will just decide to walk, which ruins the entire idea behind these rides. Another problem is the hours of service. Safety Escort stops running at 1:45 a.m., and they often will stop taking requests 30 minutes before they close. The nature of university life is such that students are awake doing work or out with friends until quite late — often much later than 1:45 a.m. University of Michigan has a service called Ride Home which is a “free
Sin tax on cigarettes is unfair to consumers Michael Skiles is a sophomore in cinema and media arts.
Imagine visiting a McDonald’s to get a quick bite on your lunch break. All you can think about is a Big Mac paired with a large order of fries and a Coke to wash it all down. You approach the register, order your meal and whip out your wallet expecting to pay a meager $6.00 charge. Imagine the surprise you feel when the cost of your order is more than $10.00 after tax. That’s more than you expected for a cheeseburger. What you just experienced is what cigarette consumers must endure every time they buy more cigarettes. The tax on a pack of cigarettes varies vastly from state to state. In Indiana, the tax on a pack of cigarettes is about $1.36 bringing the average price of a pack to $5.56.
Meanwhile, the tax on a pack of cigarettes in New York is about $4.75 bringing the average price of a pack to a staggering $10.45. Keep in mind, these are the prices before additional county and municipal taxes are factored in. This tax is commonly referred to as a sin tax. The purpose of this tax it to lessen the number of smokers while bolstering the government’s finances. The states with this tax think that they’re lowering the amount of smokers in their area when, in reality, they’re just causing smokers to travel to neighboring states that tax their cigarettes less. This unfair tax is forced on consumers purely because smoking is considered unhealthy and is frowned upon by the majority of society. If that’s the case, why don’t we place higher taxes on fast food? We’ve all heard that fast food is unhealthy for us and increases risk of obesity. If placing unreasonably
James Watson sticks with his harmful claims Earlier this month, PBS aired a new documentary about James Watson, co-discoverer of DNA and IU alumnus. In the documentary, “Decoding Watson,” one of the topics discussed is Watson’s statements that black people are less intelligent than white people. When the interviewer asks Watson if he has changed his views since then, Watson answers no. “I would like for them to have changed,” he continued, but said they haven’t because “there is a difference on the average between blacks and whites on IQ tests,” a difference he claims is genetic. On Jan. 11, the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory revoked all of Watson’s honorary titles because of his comments. This is fair — his statements have no basis in scientific knowledge, and it is unfortunate he has not kept up with the times. At age 90, Watson is obvi-
ously a product of his time. However, being such an important figure, his words matter, and he used them irresponsibly. Contrary to Watson’s confusion, we are all pretty much the same genetically. As noted by the American Anthropological Association in 1998, “The continued sharing of genetic materials has maintained all of humankind as a single species.” In addition, no single gene determines how intelligent you will be. The U.S. National Library of Medicine’s article, “Is intelligence determined by genetics?”, notes it is more likely that “a large number of genes are involved, each of which makes only a small contribution to a person’s intelligence.” Indeed, the differences between blacks and whites in the IQ studies that Watson references cannot be connected to genetics alone, if at all. Because blacks and whites tend to live apart from each other, environment is confounded with race. So how can you conclude from
shared-ride taxis service for students, faculty and staff to their residence halls, vehicles parked in universityoperated lots or structures, or local residence.” This runs from 2:00 a.m-7:00 a.m. This is a program incredibly more inviting, safe and reliable than the services IU offers. It is an idea IU should consider. One might argue that nobody will want to work those hours, but that is simply not an excuse to not provide rides for students overnight. If public safety was a priority this could be discussed, and times of free transportation could be altered. Freshman Ella Schnefke works for IU Safety Escort and she believes that the concept is good but could be improved significantly if the resources within Safety Escort were more efficient.
As a driver and navigator, Schnefke is required to report a sexual assault if made aware of it. “I understand why we have to, but it is a scary, scary thing,” she said. “I wish I wasn’t in that position. People should have a choice on whether or not they want to pursue that.” Schnefke had to take a sexual assault course as a Safety Escort employee. That shows how prevalent sexual assault is on IU’s campus. Drivers have to be properly trained on how to handle these situations. According to a 2015 survey, 35 percent of undergraduate women reported being a victim of a form of sexual harassment at IU. Of that 35 percent, 86 percent did not report it to anyone at IU. Last fall there were two reported rapes in 10 days in residential facilities at IU. Safe transportation would aid in decreasing the amount of sexual harassment and crimes. While these crimes are unfortunately normalized due to the culture of college, having fool-proof safe transportation is a good first step in solving this issue. There is a priority problem when the Media School has a 24-foot-by-12-foot TV screen, but Safety Escort’s technology is not as advanced as it could be. There is a serious problem when the quality of the landscaping is seemingly more important than the quality of safety resources. Changes need to me made when a $53 million proposal is passed to renovate Memorial Stadium, but Safety Escort still only has three outdated mini vans.

these studies with certainty that race is the only driver of intelligence? As an analogy, consider that the U.S. life expectancy for white people is 78.9 years, while that of black people is only 74.6 years. It would be ridiculous to conclude that white people have “stronger” genes than black people. Rather, the difference may be due to a toll racism takes on black people and other people of color. In other words, the difference is one of nurture, not nature. As for IQ tests in general, psychologists are beginning to agree that, while current IQ tests have been useful in some cases, intelligence tests ought to be more comprehensive of different types of intelligence that have been identified. Watson’s comments remind me of Stephen Jay Gould’s essay “Women’s Brains.” Gould examined the claim by 19th century psychologist Paul Broca that women have smaller brains than men and are less intelligent.
While Broca performed his skull measurements carefully, he nevertheless analyzed his data in such a way to confirm his pre-existing biases. In reality, Gould said, there may be so many factors influencing brain size that the effective difference between men and women is minimal. With regards to race and intelligence, we can almost certainly say the same. “I would rather label the whole enterprise of setting a biological value upon groups for what it is: irrelevant and highly injurious,” Gould wrote. He’s right. James Watson will always be considered an essential biologist of the 20th century, along with Francis Crick and Rosalind Franklin. But scientists should not misuse their science to promote negative views of races or genders, because it hurts the credibility of the scientific community as a whole, and because it brings harm to the people in those groups. alvmicha@iu.edu
high taxes does such a great job at lowering cigarette sales, why don’t we do Americans a favor and financially punish them for consuming food they enjoy? Bloomington has enacted a food and beverage tax, but it’s a mere 1 percent. Restaurants claim there has been no decrease in customers since the tax was imposed. The purpose of this tax is not to inhibit people from eating, it’s to fund the new extension to the county’s convention center. The difference between fast food enthusiasts and smokers is that a staggering number of Americans eat fast food. They have a larger voice. There would be an angered uproar if extremely high taxes were placed on fast food. Policy makers can unfairly tax cigarettes while still keeping most of the Americans they represent perfectly happy. After all, most people would be satisfied with others footing the bill if it means they get to pay fewer taxes. Of all places, I first discovered this ridiculous unfairness in an accounting class here at IU. My professor put a hypothetical tax of 20 percent on all items. Then, he proposed that he knew a way to drop this tax to 5 percent. Instead of everyone paying the 20 percent tax, a 15 percent tax would be imposed on cigarettes and other
nicotine delivery products. This leaves only a 5 percent tax left to pay on all other goods. He surveyed the class by asking who prefers to pay the 20 percent tax on all products. My hand alone went up. He then asked who prefers to pay only a five percent tax at the expense of nicotine consumers. Every other hand in the class was raised. Frankly, this is discriminatory in nature. We all partake in unhealthy habits and behaviors, yet we don’t have to fork over unreasonable amounts of cash to cover the expenses of others. Many would consider their Netflix addictions to be obsessive . When they get their bill, these people don’t find a crushing tax imposed by the government to hinder their Netflix usage. Instead, cigarette consumers get picked on and pay the price. We’re the land of the free, and we parade equality on our shoulders. We make this claim while taxing smokers more than the rest of Americans for enjoying a freedom they are more than entitled to. It’s not the government’s job to punish us for consuming a completely legal product. When the government imposes these excessive taxes on cigarette consumers, not only is it unfair, it’s a breach of American freedom. msskiles@iu.edu

» SHUTDOWN
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 early because of financial uncertainty within the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Alonso said. Debra Morrow, Middle Way House executive director, said many trauma victims she serves are panicking with the money they’ve been given. Some are overspending, and others are being too careful and not eating well. She said her biggest fear is domestic violence victims will return to their abuser because they can’t fund themselves. “We forget the fear that’s happening for all of these people,” Morrow said. “We just don’t think about it.” Alonso said he’s relieved that the government reopened and the pressure is off briefly, but he’s disappointed the re-opening is only temporary. He doesn’t want to go through the stress of another shutdown. “It creates further complications to a network that’s already strained enough,” Alonso said.

The time it takes for the crew to get to the area will depend upon the weather conditions. Each request is logged as calls come in, but crews have to make a first pass of an overall campus route before tending to reported spots.
Feickert said campus has over 56 miles of sidewalks and steps and about 21 miles of streets. “For a typical two-to-three inch snowfall, it will take between eight to 12 hours to complete an entire pass on campus,” she said. Even places that have been

SPORTS New IU offensive coordinator DeBoer takes next step in his football 'journey' By Ben Portnoy bmportno@iu.edu | @bportnoy15
As IU Head Coach Tom Allen stood at the podium in the Memorial Stadium Team Room, Kalen DeBoer sat anxiously. Boasting a wry smile, the new offensive coordinator nervously cracked his knuckles at each mention of his football résumé. With thinning blond hair and standing roughly 6 feet tall, DeBoer’s appearance mimics that of a drill sergeant. Yet his voice is youthful and upbeat. A Midwesterner by birth, his sunny disposition and tan skin reflect the past two years he spent at California State University, Fresno. But now back in the region that gave him his start, DeBoer is prepared to take IU football to the next level. “I’m from South Dakota, lived in southern Illinois, lived up in Michigan,” DeBoer said. “This is kind of like right in between those two stops. And so coming out here, it’s exciting. It’s another place for my family to see. It’s a place that I’ve heard nothing but great things about here in Bloomington. So fired up about that.” While DeBoer had no real connection to the IU program, the fit is a logical one. When former offensive coordinator Mike DeBord resigned in late December, Allen said he wanted to see himself in his new assistant.
Enter DeBoer. For one, both he and Allen come from small college backgrounds. Following his collegiate coaching debut at Wabash College, Allen moved on to Lambuth University in Jackson, Tennessee, where he served as the assistant head coach, defensive coordinator and linebackers coach. Also coaching at the NAIA level at the time was DeBoer. After an All-American career as a wide receiver at the University of Sioux Falls, DeBoer served as the team’s head coach from 2005 to 2009. During that span, USF won three NAIA National Championships, while boasting a 67-3 record. “They were basically the ones winning all the games and winning all the championships in our division there and had a lot of respect for him from a distance and got to know him through that process,” Allen said. Logistically, Allen was a staunch proponent of keeping his offensive assistants in place. With DeBoer, the entire offensive staff is expected to return. “Those were the guys I brought here with when I took over as head coach and guys I believe in, and to be able to find a guy that wants to come here and fit in with those guys and lead them was very important for sure.” As for the on-field product, Allen’s tenure at IU has been
highlighted by a defensive renaissance of sorts. The Hoosiers boasted one of the worst defenses in college football during the Kevin Wilson era. But since Allen arrived as defensive coordinator in 2016, IU has been in the top-60 in total defense twice. However, the high-flying offenses that highlighted Wilson’s time in Bloomington have dissipated. In two years as offensive coordinator, DeBord guided a largely anemic group. The Hoosiers finished No. 78 and No. 88 in total offense nationally in 2017 and 2018, respectively — a stark contrast from a 2015 unit that finished No. 25 in the country. That said, DeBoer is no stranger to offensive turnarounds. After a 1-11 record the year before he arrived at Fresno State, the Bulldogs finished the 2018 season 12-2, capped off by a Las Vegas Bowl win over Arizona State University. Beyond the records, DeBoer’s offenses were vastly improved. The Bulldogs moved from No. 120 nationally in total offense during the 2016 season to No. 47 after his second year. On paper, DeBoer inherits a young IU offense not lacking for weapons. Having already proved himself a quarterback whisperer of sorts with Fresno State signal caller Marcus McMaryion, he figures to have a major impact on a quarterback room that includes incumbent starter ju-
nior Peyton Ramsey, redshirt freshman Michael Penix and University of Utah transfer redshirt freshman Jack Tuttle. “He’s been able to do a tremendous job of going multiple places and having success and being able to be a part of some impressive turnarounds,” Allen said. “And it takes a special person to be able to create that kind of change.”
a small town in South Dakota, his coaching trajectory has brought him to a Big Ten bottom feeder in need of an offensive resurgence. DeBoer is confident he’s up for the challenge. “They’re going to get everything I have,” he said.
Closing out his opening press conference, DeBoer highlighted his football journey. On a meandering path that started in
“I think that the Big Ten challenge — just like a player wants to compete at the highest level — you want to get to that highest level and show what you can do, prove it, prove it to yourself, prove it to others, whatever it might be,” Kalen DeBoer, New IU Offensive Coordinator

WOMEN’S SWIMMING AND DIVING
IU falls at home to Maryland By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1
Right away in Sunday afternoon’s 76-56 loss to No. 11 Maryland, the IU women’s basketball team controlled the pace. The 4,555 people in attendance were loud. To that tune, the Hoosiers took an eightpoint lead and stayed out in front of the Terrapins for the majority of the first quarter. Then the second quarter happened. The Hoosiers’ pace went from fast to frantic. They scored just five points on 2-of17 shooting and committed six turnovers in the frame, resulting in a 15-point halftime deficit. “We got off to a good start,” IU Coach Teri Moren said. “We turned it over way too much. We got to halftime, looked down at the stat sheet and felt like, as a staff, we were defending in the half-court, but it’s not hard to hit wide open layups.” The Terrapins finished the game with 15 fast-break points, 13 second-chance points and 23 points off the Hoosiers’ 20 turnovers. Moren said the team talked about not beating itself in this game, but that was exactly what happened. Maryland outscored IU 20-5 in the second quarter. “That really was the game changer,” sophomore guard Jaelynn Penn said. Penn and sophomore guard Bendu Yeaney were the only two Hoosiers to score in

IU earns dominant win over Purdue By Matt Cohen mdc1@iu.edu | @Matt_Cohen_

Sophomore guard Bendu Yeaney takes a hit on a drive to the basket in the first half of the women’s basketball game against Maryland on Sunday. Yeaney finished with 10 points for the Hoosiers.
double figures. But all they could focus on postgame was the turnovers and easy baskets for Maryland. Yeaney went through a series of events in how the game was tied, turnovers occurred, the Hoosiers would get decent looks, miss the shots and
Maryland earned open run outs. That cycle seemed endless in the second quarter, and as Penn and Moren pointed out, it was the difference in the game. “We just gave them the game basically,” Yeaney said. “We definitely learn from this
one. We can’t be lazy with the ball, that’s our main goal. We can’t have 20 turnovers in a game, that’s how you lose basketball games. You have to have less than 15 to win a basketball game in the Big Ten. That’s our takeaway from this game.”
The IU women’s swimming and diving team's performance against thenNo. 2 Michigan disappointed Coach Ray Looze last week. In response, the Hoosiers headed to West Lafayette, Indiana and produced one of their best performances of the year against Purdue. IU controlled the meet from wire to wire Saturday, beating Purdue 187.5111.5. Purdue is one of the weaker opponents IU has faced this season, and as a result, Looze said that he threw out a slightly different lineup. Overall, Looze said it was a chance to celebrate swimming in the state of Indiana as the rivals met in what he called a “low street meet.” Eleven different Hoosiers were individual event winners. Seniors Lilly King and Christine Jensen each won three events. King won the 100- and 200- yard breaststroke while Jensen won the 100-yard butterfly and 400-yard freestyle. Both were on the 200-yard medley winning team. Freshman Morgan Scott, sophomore Lau-
rel Eiber, junior Shelby Koontz and senior Jessica Parratto were also winners in multiple events against the Boilermakers. Parratto improved to 5-for-5 on the season since coming back from injury with wins in the platform dive and the 1-meter dive. “We got one of our best athletes back,” Looze said of Parratto. The Hoosiers won both the 200-yard medley relay and the 400-yard freestyle relay events. IU also took four of the top five spots in the 100-yard breaststroke, as well as the top three spots in the 200-yard breaststroke. Though the Hoosiers dominated the podium in West Lafayette, the individual times were still not what they were heading into the break at the end of 2018. Coaches and swimmers on the team have attributed to that to not having a taper meet and still shaking off some rust from the long break. Looze remains confident. “It’s not always about times, I just thought we competed better, raced better,” he said. IU's next meet is at 2 p.m. Friday against No. 16 Louisville.
MEN’S SWIMMING AND DIVING
Hoosiers far from complacent in road win over Purdue By Sam Bodnar sbodnar@iu.edu
In front of a packed house, the IU men's swim and dive team swept all swimming and split the diving events in a 188-106 decimation of Purdue on Saturday. The win is the Hoosiers' 29th consecutive dual-meet victory. “I even forgot we had a streak,” IU Head Swim Coach Ray Looze said. “We’re just keeping the team doing what they are doing and not even staying focused on it.” The Hoosiers had little to stress over, taking all 14 swimming events and the 1-meter dive. Sophomore Andrew Capobianco earned his first win on the 1-meter dive this season, finishing with a score of 424.95. Senior James Connor took second with 388.35,
marking the only time he has not won the event this year. “As a team we are bringing the energy to the pool and working hard to build off each other,” Capobianco said. Sophomore Brandon Loschiavo won Purdue’s only event of the meet, scoring 410.40 on the platform dive. Capobianco took second and freshman Cole VanDevender placed third. On the swimming front, Indiana earned wins in relays, freestyles and distance swimming. The team of freshman Brandon Hamblin, sophomore Gabriel Fantoni and seniors Ian Finnerty and Vini Lanza squeezed by Purdue in the 200 meter medley relay with a time of 1:27.46. For the 400-meter free relay, senior Zach Apple, junior Mohamed Samy, sophomore Bruno Blaskovic and fresh-
man Jack Franzman finished two seconds ahead of Purdue to win with a time of 2:57.23. “There were some really exciting races and our guys had a lot of confidence against our in-state rival,” Looze said. Apple also won the 50 freestyle, 100 freestyle and 200 freestyle. “We knew we could be dominant and just focused on tightening things up,” Apple said. “IU has had a rich past couple of years and it's been a fun year for me being a part of this great culture.” Freshman distance swimmer Michael Brinegar impressed Looze by winning both the 500-meter and 1,000-meter freestyle. Freshman Mikey Calvillo, who won the 400-meter individual medley, finished less than a second behind Brinegar in the 1,000-meter. “Calvillo performed well
and there’s no doubt Michael is spectacular,” Looze said. “The performances like they put on today are a testament to that.” Looze’s team also outperformed the Boilermakers by significant margins in the butterly events. In addition to Fantoni’s 100-meter backstroke victory, he took the 100-meter butterfly while classmate Corey Gambardella placed first in the 200-meter with a 1:47.62 time. IU will host its final home dual-meet of the season at 2 p.m Friday against Louisville. “We’re not complacent with the streak we have and are being engaged in our warm-ups to avoid being ho hum,” Looze said. “I’ve said it before, we have our eyes on winning championships and to do that we gotta keep staying sharp.”

Local artists to perform their original songs By Madison Smalstig msmalsti@iu.edu
The B-town Songwriter Showcase takes place at 8 p.m. the first Tuesday of every month at Bear’s Place. This event, which is dedicated to providing local artists the opportunity to perform their original songs, typically features three invited musicians. The goal of the showcase is to not only provide a show for the public, but also give people an outlet for people to perform. Unlike an open mic where people can perform covers of songs, songwriter showcases are reserved specifically for original compositions. Additionally, the format differs from an open mic night because the same artists take turns performing one song at a time in a rotation system. “Songwriters like it because people get quiet and listen,” said Suzette Weakley, the showcase’s creator. She said audiences like it for that reason, too. The idea for a songwriter showcase in Bloomington began around 13 years ago when the musical duo Stella and Jane, which Weakley was a part of, began performing in them at the Bluebird Café in Nashville, Tennessee. Weakley, the “Stella” in the duo, met Bobbie Jane Lancaster while working at Weakley’s real estate agency. The two found they shared a passion for songwriting

and performing. Soon after meeting, they took to the road and performed all over the country, including Texas, Indiana and Tennessee. “It was just a real hoot,” Weakley said. “I look back now, and I appreciate it a whole lot more than I did at the time.”
After around five years of joint performances, Lancaster was unable to continue traveling, so they instead decided to bring Nashville to Bloomington. After moving, the two found there were only open mics in the area, and they wanted to try to reach an unaddressed audi-
ence in the area through a songwriter showcase. “We decided to recreate what we saw down there, here,” Weakley said. They started the showcase around 12 years ago at the formerly operating Players Pub. It was an immediate hit for local artists, Weakley
said. “They didn’t really have a place to show their stuff,” Weakley said. “It filled up really quickly.” Lancaster has since moved away from Bloomington, but Weakley still runs and promotes the showcase. Three years ago,
the showcase moved to Bear’s Place, where it’s still run today. Although she said the work is taxing, Weakley plans to continue the showcase for a long time. “It means so much to so many people,” she said. “For a lot of them, I think it is a really important thing.”
Bloomington Music Expo to have live music By Clark Gudas ckgudas@iu.edu | @This_isnt_clark
The Bloomington Music Expo will be at the Monroe Convention Center on Feb. 9. Tickets cost $5, with gate revenue benefiting MidWay Music Speaks. Students with ID get in free. “This is a celebration of the diverse music in our region anchored by Bloomington’s only public vinyl show,” according to the Music Expo’s Facebook page. “Over 50 exhibitions including over 20 vinyl vendors, 7 record labels, several music art makers and 25 different music-related organizations.” The main stage will feature prize giveaways and performances from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The IU Archives of African American Music and Culture will perform,
as well as DJs and other artists. The IU Auditorium is bringing a mariachi band that will perform throughout the expo. Local comedian mat Alano-Martin will emcee the event. From 1 - 1:30 p.m., the podcast “Flashback to Never” will perform a live program. Produced in the style of 1960’s retro radio, “Flashback to Never” is a radio play that asks what would happen if some of the most influential artists of the ‘50s and ‘60s never existed. “What would our world be without Elvis Presley?” Flashback to Never sets out to explore that question and more,” according to the Flashback to Never website. “Not only does it feature original music and characters, it includes an altered history.”

Kathryn de la Rosa is a senior in theater and journalism.
Horoscopes have been a fixture of print newspapers for decades. They fit snugly alongside crossword puzzles and comic strips, predicting your day in 20-30 words based on your sun sign. I’m surprised they’re still around in this era of media fighting for public trust. Horoscopes are standard fare in the L.A. Times and the Philadelphia Inquirer. In the Indiana Daily Student, we print syndicated horoscopes which also grace the pages of the Chicago Tribune. At this point, they’re an institution. That’s a problem, but it’s not a media specific one. Popular understanding of astrology places too much importance on the sun sign, and not enough on the rest of the chart. Sun sign-only horoscopes are a new phenomenon relative to astrology’s ancient history. British astrologer R.H. Naylor is credited with creating the first 12-para-
graph, one-blurb-per-sign format in a column for the Sunday Express started in the 1930s. Naylor’s involvement with the paper began when the editor asked him to interpret the newborn Princess Margaret’s birth chart. It was so popular that the Express gave him a weekly column. At first, he wrote advice for everyone whose birthday fell in the week ahead, considering the similar placements of people born days apart. This was obviously too narrow, and Naylor soon invented the kind of popular astrology most of us know now. Sun sign astrology was born from compromise. Naylor condensed the vastness of astrology to fit copy guidelines and produce content applicable to all readers. If you ever pick up and tabloid or leaf through this newspaper, glance at your horoscope and think, “this is useless to me,” you’re not wrong. Horoscopes for Refinery29 and Elle magazine
often reference planets moving through “your money house” or “your relationships house.” I described the houses of the birth chart as a y-axis to the signs’ x-axis. But your sun sign has no bearing on your houses at all. The Tribune horoscopes in this paper start with sentences like “Professional opportunities tempt,” which I can only guess means that something is going on in the 10th house that rules careers. The positions of the houses in someone’s birth chart are determined by time and place of birth. The first house starts with a person’s ascendant, or rising sign. This is the portion of the sky, as laid out by the zodiac, that was on the eastern horizon at the minute of your birth. If you think of a birth chart like a clock, the rising sign is always at 9 o’clock. To find your ascendant sign, calculate your birth chart at Astro.com. In astrology, we think of the sun, moon and rising sign as the big three, the
most integral components of a person’s identity. The sun is our ego, our sense of self. The moon is our gut, the instinct with which we process the world. Our rising sign is how we appear to others. The way we express solar energy is modified by the sun’s appearance at our birth. Herman B Wells and I make great visual examples as morning babies. The sun rose in the sky in or near the sign that was on the horizon when we born. Wells’ Cancer rising is one sign over from his Gemini sun, while both my sun and rising are Pisces. Chani Nicholas, the astrologer behind Spotify’s monthly Cosmic Playlists for the signs, pointedly labels her horoscope subheadings “Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising” and “Cancer & Cancer Rising.” The next time you see a horoscope, preferably not in a newspaper, I recommend reading both signs. krdelaro@iu.edu
IU Cinema will screen “Making Montgomery Clift” at 7 p.m. Jan. 28. Tickets start at $4. The event is co-sponsored by Bloomington Pride Film Festival, and people with VIP passes to the film festival get into the screening for free. “The Bloomington PRIDE Film Festival explores the lives and experiences of the LGBTQ+ community through featurelength and short films, talkbacks, and programming that promotes communitywide attitudes of awareness, acceptance and appreciation of diversity,” according to the Bloomington Pride website. Montgomery Clift is considered one of the most influential actors in the history of cinema. He was born in 1920 and died in 1966 and is best known for his roles in “Red River” and Alfred Hitchcock’s “I Confess,” among others. He received four Acad-
emy Award nominations during his acting career, three for Best Actor in a Leading Role and one for Best Actor in a Supporting Role. “Making Montgomery Clift” is interested in exploring the actor’s history of being reduced in documentaries to a self-loathing, closeted alcoholic in what is called “the slowest suicide in Hollywood history,” according to the IU Cinema website. Directors Robert A. Clift and Hillary Demmon will be present at the screening. “Clift’s youngest nephew, Robert A. Clift, and Hillary Demmon (both Indiana University alumni) rigorously examine the flawed narratives that have come to define Monty’s legacy,” according to the IU Cinema website. The documentary draws on interviews with Clift’s family and loved ones and presents a large collection of unseen archival material from Clift and his brother, Brooks Clift.

Rock musical ‘Rent’ is back in Bloomington By Grace Ybarra gnybarra@iu.edu
Tony Award-winning musical “Rent” will return to Bloomington 8 p.m. Jan. 28 and 29 when it visits the IU Auditorium, back by popular demand after a successful tour in 2016. The musical follows a year in the life of seven young, bohemian artists living in Manhattan’s East Village at the end of the 1980s. The characters attempt to chase their dreams in the face of drug addiction and the HIV/AIDS crisis. “‘Rent’ tells a story that is crucial for all to hear,” said IU Auditorium Executive Director Doug Booher in a press release. “It’s a unique production that not only gives the audience beautiful songs and wonderful sets, but a heartbreaking and compelling story that holds true for so many.” The IU Auditorium was the first stage in Indiana to welcome the rock musical back in 1999. Other venues were reluctant to do so as a result of the show’s controversial content, according to the press release. “Just as we were in 1999 upon its premiere, IU Auditorium is proud to present such a historic and spectacular show,” Booher said. Rent went on a 20th anniversary tour in 2016, beginning in Bloomington. The musical is still on that tour and another date for this year was added at the IU Auditorium by popular demand.
