IU issues sexual assault survey

By Samantha Schmidt schmisam@indiana.edu | @schmidtsam7

Students will receive an email from IU this week asking them to complete an anonymous survey about their perceptions of campus sexual assault.

The IU Bloomington Community Attitudes and Experiences with Sexual Assault survey aims to gain information about the prevalence of sexual assault and student views on the University’s efforts to respond to and prevent sexual violence on campus.

All undergraduate and graduate students ages 18 or older are invited to take the survey before Dec. 2, and survey findings will be released this spring, according to the University.

The survey is sponsored by the Office of the Provost, the IU Student Welfare Initiative and the IU Women’s Philanthropy Council, and it is being carried out and analyzed by the Dean of Students Office and the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction. A third-party assessment and data management firm called Campus Labs will be administering the survey, said Mark Land, IU spokesperson said.

Leslie Fasone, assistant dean of students for women’s and gender affairs, played a leading role in the coordination of the survey. She SEE SURVEY, PAGE 6

IU police widen patrol parameters

By Amanda Marino ammarino@indiana.edu | @amandnmarino

In the wake of a home invasion Sunday in which two IU students were reportedly sexually assaulted and threatened with firearms, IU spokesman Mark Land said IU Police Department officials are striving to further ensure the safety of students both on and off campus.

IUPD is always looking for ways to keep people safe, he said.

Following a blog post created by Associate Vice President for Public Safety and Institutional Assurance Mark Bruhn, Land said IUPD was planning on formally and routinely extending their police presence off campus to places similar to where the aforementioned invasion occurred.

“We thought we could help add a little layer of protection,” Land said.

Though no specific routes could be cited, Land said the parameters will be stretched out a few blocks past campus boundaries.

IUPD Lieutenant Craig Munroe said this is not the first time the department has extended its work past campus property.

It’s been done for years.

IUPD has county-wide jurisdiction, Munroe said.

They work off campus frequently and collaborate with the Bloomington Police Department, who also has jurisdiction on campus, he said.

“We’re just expanding our responsibilities a little bit more,” he said.

Currently, IUPD patrols in four districts that meet at 10th Street and Jordan Avenue, he said. This area is what is covered by IUPD for statistical purposes such as crime report data.

“We’re moving off these hard boundaries,” Munroe said, explaining that the primary responsibility of IUPD is to protect students, both on and off campus.

Land said the expansion is a logical extension of what IUPD already covers, such as off-campus housing SEE IUPD, PAGE 6

Trying to repeat After an improbable run in 2013, IU looks to defend its Big Ten Tournament title

By Michael Hughes michugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94

This weekend could be bigger than any other for IU men’s soccer.

Not only is a Big Ten tournament title on the line, but IU’s national seed in the NCAA tournament is contingent upon its performance this weekend.

No. 6 seed IU plays No. 2 Ohio State on Friday. The victor would play the winner of the matchup between No. 1 seed Maryland and No. 5 Michigan State.

“We know that what we do will determine a lot,” IU senior defender Patrick Doody said. “But we’re not concerned about that. Whatever happens, happens.”

IU enters the weekend ranked No. 6 in the RPI. A topfour finish in the RPI would guarantee IU home games until the College Cup in North Carolina.

IU sophomore midfielder Tanner Thompson said any potential implications this weekend might have on IU’s national seed is far from the team’s mind.

“We’re focused on winning

Winning the Big Ten tournament will be no small feat. First IU must defeat upstart Ohio State. The Buckeyes were picked for a dead last Big Ten finish in

the preseason poll before finishing second in the conference.

“They’re kind of like us because people weren’t expecting us to do much,” Doody said.

“They’ve just been consistent.”

IU and Ohio State are similar statistically, as well.

There are three Buckeyes tied for the team lead in goals with five each in senior Yianni Sarris, sophomore Danny Jensen and junior Liam Doyle.

Council members react to hunting decision

By Neal Earley njearley@indiana.edu

Bloomington City Council members are responding to opposition regarding the city’s decision to use sharpshooters to cull the deer population at Griffy Lake Nature Preserve.

Among those in opposition are members of the Bloomington Advocates for Nonlethal and Innovative Deer Stewardship (BANIDS).

They addressed two members on the Bloomington City Council, David Rollo and Andy Ruff, in a prepared statement.

“Council members David Rollo and Andy Ruff ’s rejection of humane deer management is based on an unsubstantiated assertion,” BANIDS said in the statement.

Rollo said only lethal solutions could work to control the deer population at Griffy. He said sterilization is not an option because deer are able to move in and out of the nature preserve.

“There are no examples of immunocontraception or sterilization working in an open system,” Rollo said. “It’s a very basic concept, and it’s not imaginary.”

BANIDS specifically addressed the council members’ claim that the Griffy Lake Nature Preserve is an “open system,” saying

their claim was not backed up by science.

“That’s ridiculous,” Ruff said about the BANIDS claims. “That’s a ridiculous claim, and they know it full well.”

Ruff said years of research have been done and that the matter has been decided.

BANIDS said in the prepared statement that it is calling for a twoyear moratorium in order to give what they believe would be a more accurate count of the deer population around the nature preserve.

“It’s simply a delay tactic,” Ruff said about the proposed moratorium. “There is absolutely no justification for delaying a well-studied, thoroughly considered, thoroughly deliberated, badly needed wildlife management activity.”

Councilman Rollo said the situation at Griffy is urgent.

“The fact of the matter is that every year that this overgrazing by deer occurs, we run the risk of what’s called the legacy effect,” Rollo said.

Rollo said overgrazing kills populations of plants around Griffy Lake, hurting the ecosystem in the nature reserve.

The Bloomington Parks Board approved a contract to hire sharpshooters to cull the deer population around Lake Griffy. The contract

was awarded to White Buffalo Inc., a nonprofit wildlife management organization for $31,000, according to a BANIDS news release.

According to the Deer Task Force Report put out by the City of Bloomington in conjunction with Monroe County, the deer population inside the nature reserve is harming vegetation diversity and poses a potential threat to drivers.

Among the lethal approaches considered to cull the deer popula-

tion were sharpshooting, hunting, trapping and killing.

The city chose sharpshooting because it believed it to be the most effective and humane way to stem the rise in deer, Rollo said.

“When there’s no evidence, nothing on the horizon, there’s nothing to be equated to, to say in a year there will be this nonlethal technique that is shown to be efficient and proven to work,” Ruff said.

NPR speaks on city planning

By Lindsay Moore liramoor@indiana.edu | @_LindsayMoore

The School of Public and Environmental Affairs is supporting the National Public Radio’s “Cities Project” that will air this fall.

NPR Senior Producer Franklyn Cater and former New York City chief urban designer Alexandros Washburn spoke Thursday afternoon in the SPEA atrium about location, design and mobility in terms of city planning for natural disasters.

Washburn spoke extensively about the New Meadowlands project in New Jersey and metropolitan New York.

The New Meadowlands project is a response to the flooding caused by Hurricane Sandy. The project aims to “rebuild ecosystems as landscapes for water storage and recreation,” according to an initiative of President Obama’s Hurricane Sandy Rebuilding Task Force, Rebuild by Design.

The greatest challenge with the New Meadowlands project will be the execution in terms of policy, finances and design, Washburn said.

Washburn spoke on the difference between design,

building and the steps it takes to bridge the two. In many cases, the execution relies on what Washburn refers to as the city’s DNA: city regulations.

“The most important thing to design is the policy and codes around it,” he said.

The talk also focused on location-based issues, such as droughts in California and Arizona.

“We can design our way out of a problem created by a location,” Cater said.

To close, Cater and Washburn spoke on the influence of transportation, especially in emergency situations.

Washburn used the example of gasoline delivery during Hurricane Sandy that erupted in riots at gas stations that did not have electricity or gas.

In response, Congress waived the Jones Act passed in 1920, which stated that goods transported between United States ports must be carried on U.S. ships operated by U.S. crews. This did not apply during the crisis when the East Coast needed fuel from states on the Gulf of Mexico.

The broadcast “Cities Projects” will be aired on NPR’s “Morning Edition” and “All Things Considered.”

WENSI WANG | IDS

Editor Franklyn Cater describes how cities are preparing for climate change as part of the NPR “Cities Project” in the SPEA atrium on Thursday afternoon.

These two broadcasts air on more than 900 NPR member stations, according to a University release.

The reports can also be heard locally on WFIU in Bloomington, according to an IU news release.

Every time a report is broadcast, a message from SPEA will play as follows: “Support for NPR comes from the School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University-Bloomington. SPEA is committed to preparing leaders and ad-

vancing knowledge for the greater good,” according to the release.

This message will reach nearly 26 million listeners each week, IU estimates.

“The NPR audience includes many in government and higher education, as well as leaders of corporations and nonprofits,” SPEA Executive Associate Dean David Reingold said in the release. “This is a way for SPEA to communicate our values and goals to a broader group of stakeholders.”

The IU Maurer School of Law will soon be directly involved with solving judicial system problems on the other side of the world.

The law school dedicated the new Academy for the Study of Chinese Law and Comparative Judicial Systems on Nov. 4 with an inaugural China Law Forum and dedication ceremony.

The forum featured a panel of four scholars from China University of Political Science and Law, which has partnered with the Maurer School of Law since 2000, and a Chinese judge.

IU President Michael McRobbie and CUPL Vice President Zhang Baosheng first announced the founding of the Academy at a formal signing ceremony in Beijing in May. Joseph Hoffman, a professor at the Maurer School of Law who supervises international programs, said the academy has two goals: to help the Chinese legal system with reforms in the way judges and the courts work and to strengthen the school’s relations in China.

“The point of this new project is to bring together people on both sides to talk about the law and to compare their notes, basically, about our legal systems,” Hoffman said.

Part of the project the two schools are working on involves a problem with the current court system in China. Many of the judges in China have become reliant on Chinese forensic crime labs to decide the verdicts of cases.

“We call it the ‘CSI effect’ here,” Hoffman said. “In the U.S., juries sometimes think that there should be DNA evidence in every case, and they’re really disappointed when they don’t see the DNA evidence ... well, in China, they have a real CSI problem.”

The academy will benefit not only the Chinese court system and IU in general, but also the law students and professors, Hoffman said. Some students were selected to sit in on the Nov. 4 forum to hear about Chinese law, talk to the

CUPL professors and meet the students from China.

Students can also learn directly from this project by being hired on as fellows, traveling to CUPL to study and being in class with the professors involved in the project.

“It’s going to help a number of our professors become more familiar with Chinese law and Chinese legal concepts, which they can then use in their teaching of our students,” Hoffman said.

Bixin Li, a law student who graduated from CUPL and is at IU to earn a master’s degree in law, agreed that the academy will offer new opportunities for both China and IU. “It could give us more opportunities to study, understand and even compare criminal law and criminal evidence law between Chinese law and American law in the future,” Li said. “I think it will help improve two law systems, especially in the criminal law division.”

Fellow law student Daoji Liu, a graduate student at CUPL who is here studying abroad, also said the relationship between CUPL and IU has helped him learn, mostly because China and the U.S. are so different.

“Here, students discuss law in class, and in China the professor just gives a lecture about the statute and some cases,” Liu said. “It’s just very different from China because we have completely different legal systems.”

The Maurer School of Law is one of four schools in the U.S. helping with this project in China, and it is also working with other schools around the world, including universities in South Korea, Australia, Germany and Switzerland.

IU was first contacted about the project by Thomas Man, a graduate of CUPL and IU and now a prominent lawyer and legal scholar in China.

“He was the one who personally came to us and said, ‘Hey, CUPL has this big new project and they’re looking for the right partners, would you guys be interested?’”

Hoffman said. “And we said, ‘Of course.’”

Wade interviews for role of vice provost for research

By Ashleigh Sherman aesherma@indiana.edu | @aesherma

IU faculty members gathered in the Maurer School of Law faculty conference room and Indiana Memorial Union Georgian Room on Thursday to hear from Michael Wade, one of three candidates for the positions of associate vice president and vice provost for research.

The meetings Thursday were the last in a series of six town hall meetings meant to provide IU faculty, staff and students a voice in the selection of associate vice president and vice provost for research, according to the website of the executive vice president for University Academic Affairs.

These meetings introduced faculty to Wade. Meet-

ings last Wednesday and Monday introduced faculty to Michael McGinnis and David Reingold, respectively.

The selected candidate will be responsible for overseeing current internal funding programs, developing new external funding sources, overseeing current research development services and fostering high quality research.

Wade has served as interim associate vice president and vice provost for research since Sarita Soni retired from the position in May. “My vision for (the office of the vice provost for research) starts with an understanding of what it takes to have a long and satisfying and highly productive and successful career as a scholar,” Wade said.

To have such a career, he

added, one must compete for national resources, whether they’re from the government, foundations or corporations.

Faculty members wary of competing for national resources miss out, not only on opportunities for national funding, but also on opportunities for national recognition and induction into national organizations.

Both IU’s Strategic Plan and IU-Bloomington’s Strategic Plan encourage faculty to identify multiple grand challenges and major, widespread problems that are best identified and tackled by multidisciplinary teams of researchers during the next few years.

Wade was asked about his approach to grand challenges.

“What separates a grand challenge from what you may

call the daily life of a scholar is that it has a conspicuous public good or social good component to solve one of society’s problems,” he said.

Funding sources, either the government, foundations or corporations, already look for a public good or social good component in research proposals, Wade said. Grand challenge proposals, therefore, do not differ much from typical research proposals, Wade said.

Though Wade said he does not take issue with the entire grand challenges portions of the strategic plans, he said he does take issue with the collaborative components of them.

The grand challenges portions of the strategic plans encourage faculty to work

with partners outside of the IU community. Wade, however, said he fears many of those partners are weak.

“It looks like, ‘I’ve got one part of the car over here and another over here and, maybe, by putting the parts of the car together, I will at least get a car that will get me back and forth to work,’” he said. “That’s not synergy. That’s not getting more than the sum of its parts.

That’s actually getting less than the sum of its parts.”

Wade said he proposes that staff from the Office of the Vice Provost for Research survey faculty about their ideas for research, as well as the progress they’ve already made on their ideas, and then bundle related ideas together, calling the bundle a grand challenge.

UB directors election results announced From IDS reports

The 106th Union Board Directors have been selected.

The election and selection processes took place last week, and 16 new directors have been appointed, according to a Union Board release.

In the Union Board election process, a general election takes place, and the eight candidates receiving the highest number of votes are elected, according to the Union Board Constitution.

Then there is a selection process during which the remaining eight director positions are filled.

The new directors received training last weekend from the directors of the 105th Union Board, according to the release.

The executive council was also elected and committees were established for next year.

Union Board Presidentelect Jacqueline Bales said in the release that the new board seems to have a similar vision

for Union Board’s future.

Union Board is the governing body of the Indiana Memorial Union and the largest student programming organization on campus.

Committee Vivianne Dang: Director of Body and Mind Committee James Diamond: Director of Music Committee Geoff Ferguson: Director of Performance and Entertainment Committee Adam Fialkowski: Vice President of Finance Ja’von Hankins: Director of Campus Unity Committee SEE BOARD, PAGE 3

“I think that groups come up with ideas that are really grand within their discipline or within disciplines near their discipline,” he said. “But to get a real grand challenge that gets the whole campus or larger groups on the campus together, I think you really need somebody looking at a whole bunch of proposals and bundling them together.”

Wade also responded to faculty who raised concerns of grand challenges’ excessive focus on natural and mathematical sciences and lack of focus on the arts and humanities.

“I think if you couple people in arts and humanities with scientists, that gives the scientists an edge in their competition for resources,” he said.

11th energy challenge ends

By Anna Hyzy akhyzy@indiana.edu | @annakhyzy

A total of 50 buildings at IU-Bloomington worked to save as much energy as they could throughout the past four weeks.

In the 2014 IU Fall Energy Challenge, participants saved 236,358 kWh of electricity, according to a release from the IU Office of Sustainability.

That’s the equivalent amount of energy used to power 236 homes for a fourweek period.

This fall’s energy challenge was the 11th of its kind.

Participants also saved 637,400 gallons of water, enough to fill an Olympicsized swimming pool.

“The energy challenge is important because it really brings attention to some of the issues that we face, especially in regard to the environment,” said Hayley Smith, the utilities conserva-

tion intern at the IU Office of Sustainability.

Smith coordinated this fall’s challenge.

Smith said the office receives positive feedback on the challenge from students.

This fall’s challenge was the first to involve the use of the IU Eco-App pilot.

The app is a gaming app designed to teach its users about energy conservation.

It was created by the Auxiliary Information Technology team, led by IU-Bloomington Facilities staff member Ranji Abraham.

Smith said 198 students used the app, which was made available to them in residence halls and greek houses.

Of the participants using the app, 107 completed a survey. Of those surveyed, 100 percent said they learned new things about energy conservation, and 90 percent said they were more likely to engage in sustain-

able practices, Smith said.

“We really hope that students realize that their actions do make a difference,” she said.

The academic and administrative buildings competing in the challenge were grouped based on purpose.

For example, all lab buildings were grouped together, and residence halls were grouped by neighborhood.

Of the academic and administrative buildings, winners included the chemistry building, DeVault Alumni Center, the Student Building, Maxwell Hall, the geology building, Swain Hall and Rawles Hall.

The residence hall winners included Wright Residence Center, Foster Residence Center, Tulip Tree Apartments and Willkie Residence Center.

Smith said it is difficult to compare the amount of energy saved from year to year because the amount of

buildings that participate has steadily increased.

During the first challenge, only 10 residence halls competed, she said.

“We keep growing the challenge, which is our goal,” she said. “We want as many buildings as possible participating in the challenge.”

There will be another challenge in the spring that has yet to be planned.

“We’re still sifting through a lot of the data for the challenge that just ended,” she said.

Smith said that through the challenge, she hopes to eliminate the idea that an individual’s actions don’t matter.

She said energy conservation is about individuals taking actions, which comes together to make a difference.

“We are very satisfied with the results of this fall’s challenge,” she said. “We’re excited for the spring.”

As the clock hands inched toward midnight Monday night, sophomore Catherine Merrell didn’t just an IU Dance Marathon dancer, but a cheerleader, as well.

Merrell gave her Kappa Kappa Gamma sisters a final push to reach their $500 goals on the last day for IUDM individual donations.

Per tradition, KKG will send its new members to IUDM to represent the sorority. With a small army of 40 women, Merrell is their spirited general.

“I like to constantly remind them that every day should be for IUDM, not just November 14 to 16, 2014,” she said. “That every day, one more call, one more text, one more email can change a kid’s life.”

Merrell doesn’t describe herself as a peppy person, but when it comes to IUDM, her enthusiasm reaches spirit captain proportions. The effects of Merrell’s weekly chapter pep talks and daily inspirational Facebook videos show as KKG inches toward its $30,000 fundraising goal.

Merrell is one of KKG’s lead contributors, donating $4,300 with help from her corporate sponsor, IDI Composites International.

“If my one phone call can get a new teddy bear for this kid or candy for Halloween for when they trick-or-treat around the hospital (I’ll do it),” she said. “It’s just making it more of a tangible thing is really what people need to see. It’s not just sending another email, it’s putting a smile on someone’s face that might be spending Christmas morning in the hospital.”

IUDM has been ingrained into Merrell after growing up in Noblesville, Ind. When her high school dance marathon for Riley Hospital fell through because of lack of interest, Merrell was heartbroken, she said.

IU-Bloomington’s collective enthusiasm for IUDM is part of what drew her to campus., she said.

“It’s a school-wide thing and it’s a culture thing,” Merrell said. “That’s one of the reasons I came to IU. Because you can see the change and how committed people are to helping others. You don’t normally see that at a frat party that IU’s known for. But we’re also known for having the second biggest dance marathon in the nation, and that’s something that’s unique to us and something that I think we should be proud of.”

The 40 KKG sisters will dance under two banners, one for their Riley buddy and one for their late sister Ashley Louise Crouse.

“Even though she wasn’t in the house during when I was there and I didn’t know her, she’s still a Kappa,” she said. “She’s still one of us.”

Keeping Crouse’s memory alive is one of Merrell’s goals as she takes over as KKG’s philanthropy chair for the following year. Merrell also plans to introduce incoming members to IUDM immediately, she said.

“Having that position is really going to help next year to not just be another person in the pledge class standing up and inspiring my peers but to be able to do that for the younger girls who don’t know (IUDM) or who didn’t know Ashley,” she said.

Merrell will see her and her sisters’ efforts pay off this weekend as 15 of them endure the 36-hour marathon while the other 25 will participate for an 18-hour shift.

“I just want them to get there and really see what their $500 or their $600, $700 is really going towards,” she said. “I’m not a crier, but when Riley kids and their parents get up and talk about their stories and what we’re doing for them, there’s nothing like it. Absolutely nothing like it.”

The increase in patrols is an attempt to decrease the amount of impaired driving and seat belt violations as people travel for Thanksgiving, according to a press release.

“Thanksgiving is one of the busiest travel periods of the year,” said Lt. Tony Casto, Fort Wayne District Commander. “Officers will be working overtime hours as part of a comprehensive effort to curb impaired and dangerous driving.”

SBOE talks next year’s legislative priorities

By Tori Fater vrfater@indiana.edu | @vrfater

State Board of Education members said Thursday that defining the board’s authority in relation to the Department of Education should be a top priority for the Indiana General Assembly’s 2015 legislative session.

The SBOE Strategic Planning Committee convened to discuss legislation recommendations for 2015, which will be voted on when the full board convenes Dec. 3. Teacher evaluations and stakeholder engagement will

be voted on as well.

The SBOE used to be part of the Department of Education but has been overseen by the Center for Education and Career Innovation since August 2013.

Since then, board members have had several conflicts with State Superintendent for Public Instruction Glenda Ritz, including Ritz suing the board for allegedly violating Indiana’s Open Door Law last year when it collectively emailed Indiana legislators about the state A to F grading system without giving public notice of the digital meeting.

Her complaint was not brought to court, by order of Attorney General Greg Zoeller.

“It’s been a frustrating year for the board, and I think there’s an opportunity for legislative changes,” board member Brad Oliver said.

Both Oliver and board member David Freitas said they would like the Indiana General Assembly to clearly define the legislative role of the SBOE and the alignment between the statehouse, the school board and the DOE. In particular, Oliver said he’s interested in legislation

to clarify board access to DOE data so the board can better understand what schools need more funding or help from state agencies.

“I would propose an area of legislation around the data, both financial and achievement,” he said.

The four-member committee also said it wants to prioritize Indiana’s new pre-K program, which will launch a pilot in five Indiana counties in January. The program will provide preschool scholarships for 4-year-olds from low-income families.

“We do have a need in

this state for high-quality preschool,” Oliver said. “I know we have a pilot, but I would like the board to commit to keeping that out front.”

There was recent controversy in the Indiana education system when it was revealed that Gov. Mike Pence’s office did not apply for an $80 million federal grant for pre-kindergarten funding. Indiana was one of two states qualified to apply for the grant.

The board asked Claire Fiddian-Green, special assistant to the governor for education innovation, to clarify the situation. Fiddian-Green said

the grant was actually meant to provide $20 million per year for four years. Only the first year had been approved.

Committee chairman Gordon Hendry said the pre-K scholarships could provide chances for parents who can’t afford to spend thousands of dollars on preschool care.

The state is now looking for preschool providers to participate in the program.

“I think we want to hear also about other states, their success, but also where they had challenges,” Hendry said.

“We’re behind, certainly, but I think we can learn.”

Bloomington ranks above average for LGBT friendliness, community in study From IDS reports

Bloomington’s equality scorecard

Bloomington was recently awarded a 67 on a scale of 100 in LGBT friendliness in the Human Rights Campaign’s Municipal Equality Index.

The MEI measures how many cities can and do support their LGBT communities, even if their state and federal governments do not support LGBT rights.

Among the 353 municipalities evaluated were the four largest cities in each state as well as all 50 state capitals and the home cities for the states’ largest public universities.

That makes for a total of 84 million people, according to the index.

Bloomington was among five Indiana municipalities evaluated in the index. Other cities include Evansville, Fort Wayne, Indianapolis and South Bend.

Of the cities evaluated, Indianapolis received the highest score, with 82 total points, according to the city’s scorecard.

Points were awarded in six categories, including nondiscrimination laws, relationship recognition, employment benefits and municipal services.

Bonus points were awarded for categories that do not apply to all municipalities, including having openly LGBT elected or appointed leadership or testing the limits of restrictive state laws.

Bloomington received 18 out of 18 points possible for its nondiscrimination laws in employment, housing and public accommodations. It also received 12 out of 12 for relationship recognition at the state level.

Gay marriage was legalized in Indiana following the Supreme Court’s decision not to hear appeal cases regarding gay marriage bans in early October, legalizing marriages in Indiana, Utah, Virginia, Oklahoma and Wisconsin, according to a previous report by the Indiana Daily Student.

One area in which Bloomington scored lower, however, was the municipality as employer category.

Bloomington was one of five cities in Indiana to be evaluated by the Human Rights Campaign’s Municipal Equality Index. The city scored 67 points out of a possible 100. The average was 59.

SOURCE HUMAN RIGHTS CAMPAIGN

Municipalities that score high marks in this area offer equivalent benefits, protections and treatment to LGBT employees.

Bloomington scored 13 out of 29 possible points in this area.

Subcategories considered to determine this score were nondiscrimination in city employment, transgenderinclusive healthcare benefits, city contractor nondiscrimination and equal benefits ordinances.

The data represented in the scorecard are from publicly available information.

Data compiled by the HRC were sent to municipality leaderships in July as a preliminary scorecard, allowing the municipalities to review their scores and ask questions.

The average score in the

index was 59, whereas half the municipalities scored 61 on the evaluation. Moreover, 25 percent of municipalities scored over 80 and only 11 percent earned a perfect score, according to the index.

Chad Griffin, president of the HRC Foundation, wrote in the report that it is becoming more common for cities across the nation to move toward inclusiveness.

“From police officers bringing pizza to couples waiting in line to be married to city leaders fighting to remove transgender exclusions from employee health plans, cities continue to demonstrate that all corners of America are ready for equality,” Griffin said.

» SURVEY

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 said she hopes the survey results will serve as a guide for how IU can improve its prevention and response efforts.

“I’m hopeful that the survey will provide us with a big-picture perspective,” Fasone said. “I also think the survey can serve as a baseline, this measure we can build off of.”

Completing the survey will take about 15 to 20 minutes, according to the University, and those who complete the survey will be entered into a drawing to win one of 400 $50 Amazon gift cards.

The survey begins by asking questions about whether or not students feel safe and comfortable on campus, and if IU is doing enough to ensure student safety.

Students will answer questions about their past involvement in bystander intervention training and their awareness of campus resources and support for victims of sexual assault.

The survey also asks students if they think there is anything they can do about the issue of sexual assault on campus, and whether or not they would feel confident intervening in a situation involving a sexual assault.

It provides participants

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 with high student populations.

“There are areas of overlap that make sense,” he said.

Land said this is by no means meant to imply that BPD does not do a great job in its jurisdiction.

“City helps us, (and) we like to help city,” Munroe said, explaining that IUPD and BPD train and work together frequently.

There are no jurisdictional fights, he said.

“People want to know their students are going to be safe,” Munroe said.

with a list of phrases and asks them to select which phrases they believe indicate a lack of consent.

They must also rate to what degree they agree with statements such as, “The more alcohol a person has consumed, the less able he/she is to consent to sexual activity” or “When a person is drinking alcohol, he or she is implying interest in engaging in sexual activity.”

Although the survey is completely anonymous, students are asked to provide information about their year in school, ethnic background, sexual orientation, relationship status and involvement in student organizations.

Fasone said that by gathering information about differences between domestic and international students, greek and nongreek students, and undergraduate and graduate students, the University can understand how to focus its prevention efforts.

“We know there are certain groups that are at higher risks,” Fasone said.

“That’s going to tell us, ‘OK, this group needs this type of education.’”

The survey incentives, creation and final report will cost the University about $20,000 to $30,000 and is funded through the Office of the Provost and the Women’s Philanthropy

Council, Land said.

The team has been working on the survey for more than a year, Land said. Planning efforts began before the Department of Education announced its Office of Civil Rights investigation into the University’s compliance with Title IX sexual harassment and sexual violence policies.

Since March, IU has been providing the Office of Civil Rights with documents and information about its sexual assault reporting procedures and prevention efforts.

Since then, IU has launched its Student Welfare Initiative to boost sexual assault prevention and response efforts. Last week, the University was also awarded a one-year, $165,000 Indiana Department of Health grant to expand its efforts.

“This is a fact-finding mission,” Land said about the survey. “It’s not about us being able to say things are great on campus.”

Land said he realizes that many students taking the survey will have personal experiences related to sexual assault, and that there will also likely be some negative responses.

“We’d like to think we’re doing a lot already, but no one is under the illusion that there isn’t a lot more work to be done,” Land said.

Along with the extended patrol routes, Land said IUPD also offers several self-defense classes that run when enough students are interested to fill a course.

“These are the kinds of resources we’d like students to know exist,” Land said.

Land said IUPD wants to be more than just generic uniforms behind the tinted windows of squad cars.

Munroe said the class, the Rape Aggression Defense System, is geared toward teaching women defense tactics.

Land said IUPD is constantly examining what they do and what they can offer the community to

make themselves more effective.

After all of the attention that events of this past weekend received, he said it seemed an appropriate time to remind people what IUPD is doing to look out for their safety, as well as provide them with a tangible change in the patrol parameters.

Land said this is the time to show people what resources IUPD has and also that they take issues like this very seriously.

Munroe said IUPD is doing all that it can to ensure the safety of the University’s students.

“It’s information people need to have,” he said.

Hollinger-Janzen and Thompson are tied for the team lead with five goals each.

“Whenever there’s a balanced scorer we just have to focus on a lot of different areas,” Thompson said. “They have a couple good attackers that we need to deal with.”

Each team has also allowed 17 goals this season.

IU sophomore Colin Webb has a goals allowed average of 0.85. Ohio State senior Alex Ivanov has one of 0.86. Webb and Ivanov each have seven

shutouts as well.

Thompson said IU has to attack Ohio State’s outside backs, as it did in IU’s 2-1 victory earlier this season at Ohio State.

If IU manages to defeat Ohio State, the prospects of its next match do not appear very promising.

IU lost to Maryland and Michigan State by scores of 2-1 and 3-2, respectively.

Both Maryland and Michigan State also have a lot at stake in terms of seeding this weekend. Michigan State is No. 7 in the RPI while Maryland is No. 16.

A Big Ten final with Michigan State would be a rematch of the final last season, a 1-0 IU victory.

A potential final between IU and Maryland would be an away match for IU, as Maryland is hosting the Big Ten tournament.

IU is 7-0-2 in matches played away from Bloomington this season and has played four of its last five matches on the road.

“We feel well-prepared for Ohio State and anybody who we face at this time,” Doody said. “That’s due to a tough regular season schedule.”

FRESH START

Hoosiers set to open season vs. Delta Devils

By Sam Beishuizen sbeishui@indiana.edu | @Sam_Beishuizen

IU men’s basketball returns this weekend for its 115th season.

IU opens its 2014-15 season at 7 p.m.

Friday against Mississippi Valley State at Assembly Hall.

The Delta Devils lost 10 games in a row to end last season. With only five returning players, Mississippi Valley State was predicted to finish second to last in the conference and is near the bottom of most college rankings.

But after an offseason filled with trouble off the court, freshman James Blackmon Jr. said he’s ready for the games to start counting and the season to begin.

“I’ve been so excited to play here,” Blackmon said. “I’ve been ready to play these games, so I’m just glad it’s here.”

After a 9-23 season last year, MVSU hired Andre Payne as its newest head coach in July.

Payne led Wiley to an NAIA Tournament appearance with a 25-7 record last season before taking the job at

IU (0-0) vs. Mississippi Valley State (0-0) 7 p.m. Friday, Assembly Hall

Mississippi Valley State.

IU Coach Tom Crean said IU studied film of Wiley and expects the Delta Devils to show IU a mix of defenses.

Payne’s teams tend to be trapping teams, playing out of a 2-3 zone and sometimes applying constant pressure on the ball handler.

Playing against full-court pressure may prove challenging to an IU team looking to limit turnovers while at the same time pushing the tempo this season.

Crean said MVSU forced more than 20 turnovers against Stillman in its lone preseason tuneup.

But with a new coach and only five players with experience playing, Crean admitted it’s hard to anticipate what IU will actually see from the Delta Devils on Friday.

4 questions for the 2014-15 basketball season

By Alden Woods

Hoops with Hoop, Page 12

aldwoods@indiana.edu | @acw9293

One thing will cure all of IU’s off-court troubles: winning.

IU basketball hasn’t taken the court for a competitive game in 246 days.

Since that March 13 loss in the Big Ten Tournament, the program has undergone a transformation.

Ten players from the 2013-14 team are gone, replaced by nine newcomers.

Three players have been suspended.

Three have gotten involved in legal problems. One tore his ACL, and one is rehabilitating from a fractured skull.

Every offseason raises questions. The summer of 2014 brought on more than usual.

IU’s 2014-15 prospects hinge around four questions.

Can the players stay out of trouble?

When the Hoosiers take the court Friday night, they’ll do so without five of their own.

Two players, sophomore forward Devin Davis (fractured skull) and freshman center Jeremiah April (foot), are injured. Three players, sophomore wings

Troy Williams and Stanford Robinson and freshman forward Emmitt Holt, are suspended for the season’s first two games.

IU Coach Tom Crean has been criticized for his players’ off-court troubles, which have spanned the entirety of 2014.

Losing Williams, Robinson and Holt against two cupcake non-conference opponents won’t hurt the Hoosiers, but another legal issue could mean the end for Crean.

Can IU take care of the ball?

The Hoosiers turned the ball over on 21.8 percent of their possessions last season, more than any other major-conference team.

Giving away the ball at such a high rate not only stifled IU’s offense but allowed opponents to score easy baskets in transition.

PH BALANCE

Student loan debts are up, up and away Awesome news, fellow students: loan debts are going up.

The Project on Student Debt by the Institute for College Access and Success published its annual report Thursday that

found the average loan debt of 2013 Indiana graduates rose to $28,466.

What was last year’s average? $27,886.

The good news is that fewer students are suffering from loan debt. Stay in school, kids.

Exploring the final frontier

‘Duck Dynasty’ goes to Broadway

STEPHEN KROLL is a senior in journalism.

For the first time, we’ve landed on a comet.

The European Space Agency’s Rosetta probe, called Philae, landed on comet 67P/ChuryumovGerasimenko, BBC News reported Wednesday.

Scientists in Darmstadt, Germany, where the ESA mission control is located, celebrated after the landing.

“Now we’re close enough to lick it, and see what it’s really made of,” Chris Hadfield, a Canadian astronaut, told BBC News.

Planning for this mission began 25 years ago, according to BBC. The satellite traveled 4 billion miles within 10 years to reach the comet.

This has big potential for scientific discovery, but it also allows us to consider our future as a species.

Some might argue these kinds of scientific missions have little weight in the face of problems here on Earth.

They’re costly and shift focus away from other issues.

We’re fighting wars with each other and have almost no global security or general agreement.

It seems like we’d have a tough time figuring out what to do in space when we can barely make this planet work.

Maybe we should hold off until we get our act together.

But another argument can be made for such space missions.

It’s possible we’ll never get global peace down.

Maybe our safest bet is to keep funding these scientific missions and hope we advance enough to colonize somewhere else before we nuke each other back home.

Science could help explain where we come from and where we can go.

The faster we figure it out, the better our chances of species survival.

I think there’s more to these missions. I think they are important because discovery is in our nature.

We’ve always been pushing the limits.

We want to know more, to go farther. We travel to the farthest lands, the deepest parts of the ocean, the highest peaks.

Even when it’s dangerous, our species can’t stop searching.

These scientific missions are a manifestation of that drive. I don’t think we could stop exploring. And I don’t think we should try.

If you’re not moving forward, you’re dead in the evolutionary water.

We need to explore.

Because the minute we lose our edge and become complacent is the minute we die off.

We are the top of the food chain.

Our biggest threat is ourselves.

We as a species are going to decide if we continue living or if we’re going to wipe ourselves from existence.

So these missions are important because they keep us sharp.

They remind us that the goal isn’t just some new planet or piece of data. It’s progress.

Whatever we learn from comet 67P, we can remember it as a stepping stone in mankind’s path forward and wherever that might lead. sckroll@umail.iu.edu

Reclaiming the female body WE SAY: It’s time for women to own their bodies In a recent photoshoot for Interview magazine, Keira Knightley went topless with one condition: her breasts be shown as they are, with no use of Photoshop.

In an interview with Time magazine, Knightly said her body is often altered, but this time she wasn’t having it.

Knightley told Time that she agreed to the shoot with these specific stipulations, “because it does feel important to say it really doesn’t matter what shape you are.”

She explained that on many occasions she has had the image of her body manipulated and contorted without her permission, lending to the idea that “women’s bodies are a battleground.”

The Indiana Daily Student Editorial Board applauds Knightley for reclaiming the image of her own body. This

is a much-needed step toward normalizing natural breasts.

Her image, and her breasts in particular, was infamously photoshopped in the “King Arthur” movie poster in 2004 to look larger than they naturally were.This is just one example of how female celebrities often have their body image taken and contorted to perpetuate false expectations for what female bodies should look like.

This photoshoot for Interview magazine is a way to reclaim her body image and have it stand for a more inclusive and realistic statement about women’s bodies.

Admittedly, Knightley’s slim body type is glorified in media, but she is in a position to make a stand for representing whatever body you have and not being ashamed or made to falsely

represent yourself.

With this photoshoot, Knightley not only makes a move for body acceptance but also for the idea of reclaiming the female body from shame.

For too long, the female body has been treated as inappropriate or vulgar.

The media over-sexualizes female bodies, and then the women themselves have to deal with the backlash when society inevitably starts namecalling.

Society wants female celebrities to be seen as sexual objects and women such as Knightley are tired of adhering to those wishes.

Breasts are a natural part of the female body, and female bodies do not belong to the public. A woman’s choice to share her body, or not, should be completely her own.

This statement is espe-

cially important in the wake of leaked nude photos of multiple female starlets. These women had their bodies used against them and displayed to the public against their will.

This is another example of how the media feels the right to claim female bodies for their own use and consumption. This is not a right that anyone has.

A person’s body is theirs to be shown or not shown as they please. The best way to make this clear is through the reclaiming of female bodies, to present them as natural and normal.

Female bodies today are a public battleground, but Knightley and women everywhere are fighting for their right to their own bodies, so that one day female bodies can be nothing more than just that.

KARL’S KORNER

A fly on the wall, the bus, on the street, on Twitter It’s funny how people talk about world events they don’t understand.

Conversations switch from mundane topics to the most recent developments concerning the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.

Today’s technology has created the social norm that it’s OK to eavesdrop and overhear other people’s conversations.

For example, take live tweeting. Yes, we’re passing on “news,” but more importantly we’re adding in our own judgments on a certain matter.

Live tweeting allows us to use technology to publicly broadcast our eavesdropping tendencies.

A woman named Carrie Mantha sat at a restaurant bar in Manhattan on Tuesday and said she overheard an absurd conversation that took place on a Tinder date.

Since Mantha was alone at this bar, she couldn’t just chuckle at the tête-à-tête, she had to share it with the world.

In her tweets, she spoke about the conceited 4 0 - s o m e t h i n g - y e a r- o l d man who was informing his “date” (in quotations because it was his third Tinder date of the day) about his various hobbies.

One tweet said, “‘These ISIS guys are already in the city. They’re driving cabs everywhere.’ #hideyourkidshideyourwife.”

Even though Mantha doesn’t directly state how she feels about his quote, she uses hashtags throughout her live account to indirectly imply how ridiculous and presumptuous his comments are.

With technology we have the ability to publicly admit that we’re eavesdropping and then offer commentary.

This kind of amusing recounts seem fine because of the anonymous aspect. Even though we don’t know who was at the date at the bar, it still proves to be funny.

People say and overhear some pretty weird and hilarious things, and once

they’re shared on social media, they’re transformed into public entertainment.

The sharing aspect of technology is like a megaphone — when little things go viral, they’re popular for a reason.

Think of the things you hear while you’re out on the Bloomington streets.

I have found some true gems that had me lol-ing.

Everything from strange collections to a prediction of Cheez-Its ruling the world while inferior cheese-flavored crackers rot in hell.

When we hear these funny conversations, the temptation to share them is strong.

If it made us laugh, it would probably make our friends laugh, and there’s no harm in that. And just think of all the Twitter attention and Instagram likes.

But regardless of your intentions behind sharing these hilarious instances, it’s still an invasion of privacy.

Information is spread faster and with less effort today than ever before, whether

JESSICA KARL is a sophomore in English.

it be through pictures, texts and tweets. Technology has made eavesdropping socially acceptable. We see those white stars turn gold and instantly forget that we took these words, these stories, from another person.

And likely without their permission.

I highly doubt Mantha asked the dude she was quoting if she could tweet his opinions about ISIS. We can’t control what we hear, except for blasting our iPods as loud as possible.

Overhearing conversations is inevitable.

But you have complete control over what you post on social media. Posting someone else’s conversation is an invasion of privacy, and more consideration should be put into these posts. jlkarl@indiana.edu

Let’s try to think of the dumbest idea for a musical. The dumbest idea anybody could ever conceive. “Animal Farm: The Musical.” “The Spanish Inquisition: The Musical.”

“The Black Plague: The Musical.”

All of these sound wonderfully terrible but, as we have seen time and time again, reality beats out imagination every single time.

Be prepared for the newest Frankensteinianmonster Broadway show: “The Duck Commander Family Musical.”

Yes, there will be a musical about the family featured on the reality television show “Duck Dynasty.”

Of course, part of me wants to say this is yet another example of entertainment and commercialism taking over an art form.

Granted, it’s an art form that has become more beholden than most to pulling in revenue.

Yet, I feel that is just too pretentious to say because, in the end, I think this idea is just an absolutely awful idea. Nothing more than that.

One of the musical’s composers, Steven Morris, said, “the specificity and the strangeness of the family’s lives and home are a great fit for a compelling musical.”

Really?

Apparently some consider actors bouncing across the stage being idiots compelling material for a musical.

It appears to be a sign that the first song of the musical is likely to be called “Faith, Food and Family.”

Or what it should be called, “Homophobia, Lots of Food and a Family Likely Held Together by a Television Show.”

Actually, I don’t think it’s the fact that it’s this particular family that bothers me.

I think it’s that they’re making a musical out of a reality television show.

In other words, they are making an entirely constructed product out of another entirely constructed product.

It is two degrees of scripted presentation removed from the actual family, which could be good or bad.

It’s just that, if I want to go see a musical that will leave me entertained and will restore some faith in the goodness in humanity, I doubt “The Duck Commander Family Musical” could offer any of that for me.

Further, if “The Duck Commander Family Musical” is successful, what other horrendous musicals will be made from reality television shows?

“House Hunters International.” “The Biggest Loser.” “The Kardashians.”

For the good of mankind, please don’t make a musical about the Kardashians.

If you are a fan of the television show, good for you, but keep it a television show.

Let it be popular in that dark corner of reality television.

Don’t bring it to Broadway. Don’t make it a musical.

Just don’t. allenjo@indiana.edu

Museum hosts family craft day

The Mathers Museum of World Cultures will host a Family Craft Day on Saturday in order to introduce Bloomington’s children to the wonder of musical instruments.

Samantha Sandusky, graduate assistant in the education department, said the event focuses on both creation and education.

“We will be making panpipes, drums, harmonicas and castanets,” Sandusky said. “We will also have objects from the Mathers Museum’s Education Collection available for children to look at and perhaps even play with.”

The event coincides with the museum’s new exhibit “Instruments of Culture,” which, according to the museum’s website, explores how the world’s musical instruments are classified and studied and why.

The museum, Sandusky said, tries to host events for families each month to help bring the community together to learn and experience various forms of world culture.

“Events like Family Craft Days provide incentives for families and individuals to visit the museum when they may not otherwise,” Sandusky said. “We are able to reach audiences that we might not be able to.”

Sarah Hatcher, head of

Works from the New York International Children’s Film Festival will be playing at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater on Sunday.

The screenings, sponsored by the Ryder Film Series and Lotus World Music and Arts Festival, will feature 20 films from this year’s festival, dividing into screenings for children ages three to eight at 2:15 p.m. and 5 p.m. and ages eight to 80 at 3:30 p.m. and 6:15 p.m.

“This is the first time we’re doing this,” said Peter LoPilato, director and founder of the Ryder Magazine and Film Series.

He said the festival in New York is the largest festival of its kind in the world for children. What they will present at the Buskirk-Chumley is a best-of selection of short films ranging from about two to 20 minutes that include a variety of animation, claymation, stop-motion and live action.

LoPilato said he and his children love to go to the movies, but this experience is something completely different from what they see on a typical Sunday afternoon.

“These are independent

filmmakers from all over the world,” he said.

This film series exposes children not only to new filmmakers, but also to new countries, cultures and attitudes, he said.

Germany, France, Russia, Czech Republic, Canada, Hungary, the United Kingdom and the United States are all represented in the screenings, LoPilato said.

This kind of a cinematic experience opens up the world to children, providing them with films that are funny, exciting, suspenseful and thought-provoking, he said.

LoPilato said he thinks adults can enjoy the second set of films, too.

Unlike the first set of films for younger children, which are either silent or in English, the second set contains some films with English subtitles, he said.

“I’m guessing we’re going to get a good turnout,” LoPilato said.

He said tickets are currently on sale and cost $10 for adults and $6 for children and are available online or at the Buskirk-Chumley box office. One ticket allows access into one of each screening.

“Kids are very curious,” LoPilato said. “They are always looking for more.”

programs and education at Mathers, said she hopes the event will inspire attendees to attend future museum events, as they have many new and exciting exhibits in place for this season.

“The Mathers Museum has many new exhibits for our visitors this year,” Hatcher said. “Three focus on food, and one focuses on music. We hope that people feel encouraged to come and learn more about food, music and other things that we can all relate to.”

Hatcher and Sandusky said they agree that cultural events such as this one help foster a needed learn-

ing spirit in children and families.

“Family events provide us with the opportunity to teach children and their caregivers about culture in interesting and exciting ways,” Sandusky said.

Children, Sandusky said, may not be able to fully understand the larger significance of the lessons they learn at this type of event, though they are no less important at that formative time.

“Young children may not be able to appreciate the fact that all humans share many of the same challenges and opportunities,

but they can begin to develop respect, tolerance and understanding by making crafts and learning about the people and places those crafts come from,” Sandusky said.

The event will take place from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Saturday.

Attendees are encouraged to bring an empty soda or water bottle to make their own maracas during the event.

For anyone who attends this event and enjoys him or herself, Sandusky said she has good news. The museum plans to have a culinaryand holiday-themed event on Dec. 7.

The Bloomington Watercolor Society’s ninth annual membership show “We Paint ...” will open from 6 to 8 p.m.

Friday at the Venue Fine Art and Gifts.

Gabriel Colman, owner and curator at the Venue, said this is the first time his store has hosted the event.

Though this is the first time for this specific show, the Venue and Bloomington Watercolor Society have worked together in the past.

Colman said the Watercolor Society is known for being a well-organized group that produces “solid” work.

“I was honored when they thought of having their work in my space,” Colman said.

The show includes watercolor paintings of all subject matter, according to a news

release from the Venue.

Many works were done in “plein air” style, made during outdoor outings sponsored by the Watercolor Society from the past year. The paintings featured have a combination of realism, impressionism and abstraction.

The Bloomington Watercolor Society is an organization that promotes growing relationships between local artists.

The goal of the organization is to provide opportunities for promoting and exhibiting watercolor paintings in the community. Membership is open to everyone.

More than 35 BWS members have pieces on display and for sale during the month-long show at the Venue.

BY THE BOOK

Young adult novels reach beyond age groups Who can resist a trip back down memory lane to a place of rebellion, acne and teen angst?

Though the teen years are not the most glorious part of life (I honestly don’t trust people who had a cozy adolescence), they are the hallmark of finding oneself and growing up.

A majority of young adult writers are not young adults themselves. The desire to write about those younger than yourself could come from the possibility of youth or the desire to guide minds during a troubling period in life.

Whatever the reason, authors have turned the young adult section of the bookstore into a hot commodity.

I started reading young adult novels well before my teenage years.

Writers such as Ellen Hopkins, Laurie Halse An-

derson, Judy Blume and Rachel Caine acted as spirit guides when I was holed up in my room, away from others who just didn’t “get it.”

Though I could have done without the bratty characters from Lisi Harrison’s series “The Clique,” and every millennial wants to have their brain swiped of “Twilight,” young adult novels established my love of books.

My question is: are people who are no longer living as young adults allowed to indulge in the young adult category?

Technically, I still have one year left to live as a teenager, but as a sophomore in college, I feel a tad separated from teens who fear failing their driving test and still dislike their parents. I’m sure people who can drink alcohol and rent cars feel the same way

about me.

It could be my reluctance to grow up or just me romanticizing the past, but the young adult section has almost become my own Fountain of Youth.

I fail to see how reading young adult novels is childish or even a waste of time.

You learned from “Tuck Everlasting” that immortality is vain, and “The Hunger Games” is an extensive metaphor about how society brutalizes youth. Only, you’re not a know-it-all yet.

Young adult novels might not teach you about a new life experience, but they connect you with another generation.

Young adult novelists reflect the hopes, dreams, fears, anxieties and angers of the young people reading them.

By ignoring these pieces of representation from a dif-

MADISON HOGAN is a sophomore in journalism.

ferent age group, we diminish the crowd as a whole. We should not greet the calls from our rising youth with silence.

I know from my own experience that these novels helped establish creativity, thought, expression and change in my life, and I hated when people dismissed them as “kids’ books.”

Yes, you might look odd if you’re in the band of mothers throwing underwear at Taylor Lautner or you’re receiving social security while also frequenting the local Harry Potter fan club.

But there’s no age limit on who can read young adult novels. It’s like a board game: “good for ages 13+.”

And that plus sign is infinite. maehogan@indiana.edu

Hoosiers look to end 4-game losing streak

By Grace Palmieri gpalmier@indiana.edu | @grace_palmieri

IU hasn’t won since Oct. 4, a 49-24 win against North Texas.

With junior quarterback Nate Sudfeld, the Hoosiers were scoring 32 points per game.

Since Sudfeld suffered a season-ending injury in a loss to Iowa, the Hoosiers have averaged a little more than 11 points per game.

“We’ve got to score points,” IU Coach Kevin Wilson said.

A combination of no offense and good Big Ten defenses has led to a four-game losing streak for IU. This week, the Hoosiers (3-6, 0-5) travel to Rutgers (5-4, 1-4).

The Scarlet Knights are on a three-game skid, with blowout losses to Ohio State, Nebraska and Wisconsin.

While both teams finished the non-conference season with winning records — IU was 3-1 and Rutgers 4-0 — they’ve struggled since opening Big Ten play.

IU doesn’t have a single conference win. Rutgers has one.

“We’re just trying to figure out different ways of working with the guys we have,” IU freshman receiver J-Shun Harris said. IU freshman quarterback Zander Diamont passed for 11 yards in his first game. Throughout the next

two weeks, that number improved — but just barely.

Averaging just 34 yards through the air in the last three games, the offense has become nearly one-dimensional. And easy to defend.

In 2013, IU’s passing offense was ranked No. 17 in the country. Now, it’s No. 119.

Wilson said he’s running out of options on offense.

They’re down to their third quarterback, having gone to the fourth on occasion. They’ve tried the Wildcat, with Tevin Coleman and D’Angelo Roberts taking snaps.

And it’s not just the offense struggling to score. IU has scored just six points on defense this year and hasn’t scored a touchdown on special teams.

“We’re struggling offensively,” Wilson said. “And we

have to get in the end zone, whether we’re creating defensive opportunities or kicking game opportunities.”

Since Wilson arrived in Bloomington in 2011, IU’s win total has increased in each of the last three seasons.

Now the Hoosiers are 3-6 and in need of three more wins. One loss would essentially mean an end to the season.

After Rutgers, the Hoosiers travel to Ohio State and then return home to play Purdue for the Old Oaken Bucket.

The sense of urgency is higher than ever, Harris said.

“We know that these three games, it’s do or die,” he said.

“It’s not just because the situation we’re in, but since the beginning of the year we’ve been like, ‘Let’s go, this is the year, we gotta make a bowl game.’”

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7 — Postpone a financial discussion, and do the numbers to prepare. Get clear on the facts. Your credit rating’s going up. Complete a contract or other document. You’ve got the time. Social time reinforces your connections.

Needing just one win to become bowl-eligible, Rutgers cornerback Gareef Glashen was confident in his team’s chances to win Saturday against IU. So much so that he guaranteed it.

“We’re going to go out there, and we’re going to win,” Glashen told reporters earlier this week.

Glashen’s prediction isn’t quite Joe Namath’s Super Bowl III guarantee, but it is a bold prediction considering Rutgers has lost three in a row and is coming off of a blowout loss against Wisconsin before a bye last weekend.

Rutgers will get a chance to prove Glashen’s prediction Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in Piscataway, N.J., when the Hoosiers (3-6, 0-5) and Scarlet Knights (5-4, 1-4) meet for the first time in the programs’ histories.

Rutgers’ confidence doesn’t come as a surprise to IU freshman receiver J-Shun Harris.

He said he figured Rutgers would be confident considering his own team’s recent struggles and Rutgers’ urgency for a win.

Rutgers next two opponents, Ohio State and Maryland, sit second and third in the Big Ten East Division. The Hoosiers are in last.

Harris can read between the lines.

“I just know based off of my own sense that they a good time to expand. Take it slow and review the situation. Rearrange furniture. Ask a question you’ve been considering. You can have fun without spending a lot. Play without agenda.

would think, ‘Oh okay, we’ve got Indiana coming up. We can do this. We can beat them,’” Harris said. “But no, we’re not going to have that.

We’re going to come out with our best effort.”

The Scarlet Knights are led by veteran quarterback Gary Nova, who has played 37 games in his career and is the Rutgers all-time leader in passing touchdowns.

Nova’s career has been characterized by inconsistencies and mixed results, which freshman safety Chase Dutra said IU will look to capitalize on this weekend after coming up with two interceptions last week against Penn State.

Nova started the year well, leading Rutgers to five wins in six games to start the season with the lone loss coming against Penn State on Sept. 13.

In that game, Nova threw five interceptions.

In a 37-0 loss to Wisconsin last week, he was just 5-for-15, throwing with 46 yards and an interception.

Those results aren’t all that unlike IU freshman quarterback Zander Diamont, who threw for 68 yards and two interceptions last week against Penn State.

With IU’s points scored dropping each week, IU Coach Kevin Wilson was blunt in saying his offense simply needed to score more points and keep up with his defense, which turned in a season-best performance last weekend in a losing effort. playtime.

The IU cornerbacks need to have a big game Saturday, writes columnist Brody Miller. Read online at idsnews.com.

IU (3-6, 0-5) at Rutgers (5-4, 1-4) 3:30 p.m. Saturday, Piscataway, N.J., BTN Wilson added that he was pleased with Diamont’s progression but added teams don’t win many football games without scoring an offensive touchdown.

Diamont has had three full games and only has three games left. Wilson said it’s time to get the offense closer to where it was at the beginning of the season.

“We need to get back up to speed,” Wilson said. “Our ability to make one-on-one plays is not where it needs to be.”

Wilson has amped up the physicality at practice in the last few weeks hoping it helps rejuvenate his Hoosier team.

It worked well for the defense last week. IU’s 13 points given up to Penn State was one of the better defensive games the Hoosiers have played all season.

Now it’s just a question of how the offense will respond after four consecutive weeks of declining output.

“They’re an outstanding defense,” IU offensive coordinator Kevin Johns said. “They do a great job of stopping the run. It should be a fun and great challenge.”

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6 — Fantasy and facts clash. Simplify to minimize regular expenses, and increase savings. Decline a social invitation for now. Quiet time in peaceful surroundings recharges your batteries.

Meditate, eat and sleep well. You experience a philosophical shift.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 7 — Guests arrive... offer warm hospitality, and your peacemaker skills. Be careful, something you try doesn’t work. Don’t follow a hunch blindly. Listen for what’s wanted.

HOOPS WITH HOOP

BEN MIKESELL | IDS

Freshman James Blackmon Jr. dribbles the ball while guarded during IU’s game against Indianapolis on Monday at Assembly Hall. The Hoosiers open their season Friday against Mississippi Valley State.

If IU wins this season, all the criticism goes away Let’s get one thing straight.

If IU wins this season, and wins at a high rate, all this turmoil will go away.

The old adage “winning cures everything” isn’t an old adage for nothing.

The IU men’s basketball team has had an awful last nine months. There have been several off-court issues involving alcohol and a good chunk of the players.

But something else happened, too.

IU went 7-11 in the Big Ten. It missed the NCAA Tournament. It even missed the NIT. There are some things more important than basketball. Devin Davis’ recovery right now is more important than basketball.

A 19-year-old man underwent a “traumatic brain injury,” as IU Coach Tom Crean called it. Not a basketball player, but a human being underwent that injury. And we’re all pulling for him. His recovery is more important than IU’s record at the end of this year.

But the other stuff?

There’s an easy cure for that — winning.

“We know we’re going to see a lot of pressure from them, and then how they decide to play offensively, we’ll have to wait and see,” Crean said. “I would imagine they’ll come in and play fast, but they may not. They may try to shrink the game.”

Crean said the emphasis in practice this week — as it has been throughout most of the preseason — is on the defensive end with added stress on rebounding, especially with guards, due to IU’s lack of size.

For IU, that starts with the transition on the

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 The most obvious breakdown came in a meltdown loss to Penn State. IU led by 11 points with a little more than three minutes to play and appeared on its way to an easy victory. Five turnovers later, the Hoosiers had blown the game.

Crean said in the preseason that IU will plan around a “two-way attack,” and a stable of talented guards will ensure the Hoosiers play fast. Whether they can take care of the ball will affect their success on both ends of the court.

What if something happens to Hanner?

IU starts its season tonight. No more exhibitions.

It plays Mississippi Valley State at 7 p.m., and it will win.

It’ll play Texas Southern at 6 p.m. Monday and it will win that game, too.

During this season, IU fans and media members — probably myself included, if we’re being honest — will wonder aloud if all the offcourt troubles will put Crean on the hot seat.

“IU players are out of control.”

“Crean has no handle on his program.”

“These kids don’t know what it means to wear the candy stripes.”

You’ll see all those comments on Twitter, hear your friends say them or may even read them in print or hear them on the radio.

But it’s kind of amazing what a 9-9 or 10-8 season in the Big Ten will do to this program.

Suddenly, the players aren’t “out of control,” they’re “focused.” Crean will be praised for leading this roster laden with youth to the Tournament. And the kids who weren’t worthy

to wear the candy stripes a few months prior will once again be a shining example of an IU basketball player — if they hit 40 percent of their threes.

These games won’t really show us anything about how IU will fare during Big Ten play.

Sophomores Troy Williams and Stanford Robinson still have two games remaining on their suspensions for drug use. It’s hard to tell what the puzzle is supposed to look like if you’re missing two-fifths of your pieces.

To reiterate, one thing will determine Crean’s job status at the end of the season: the number in the “W” column at the end of the year.

So let’s just play basketball, for goodness’ sake.

defensive end.

Crean said some of the older players such as junior guards Yogi Ferrell and Nick Zeisloft already understand that concept, but younger guards are still learning it through trial and error.

“I think the key is going to be just making the easy play,” freshman guard Rob Johnson said. “I think sometimes as younger players, you sometimes try to make the home run play or the spectacular play. I think the key for us is just making the easy plays.”

Crean added that he stresses running the court in transition and rebounding because those are the things his team does the most in a given

game.

IU will once again be without a pair of forwards in sophomore Troy Williams and freshman Emmitt Holt as well as sophomore guard Stan Robinson, who will be sitting out their third of four game suspensions.

Every possession of every game continues to be a chance for an inexperienced IU team to grow.

For now, that means learning ways to limit turnovers, rebound against Mississippi Valley State and not being afraid to change strategy as the game goes along.

“We’re going to play to win the game, whatever it takes,” Crean said.

and the injured Davis and April.

Last season, MosqueraPerea averaged 6.1 fouls per 40 minutes, a rate that could hurt the Hoosiers. What’s Crean’s move if his starting big man picks up two quick fouls?

When that happened in IU’s exhibition against Indianapolis, Crean left him in the game.

Mosquera-Perea doesn’t have to do much to be effective for this IU team. His scoring burden will be limited.

His main responsibilities will be protecting the rim and rebounding. If he gets into foul trouble — or worse, injured — a frontline that’s already shallow will be left to two freshmen.

long-range shots than every other Big Ten team and made little more than six 3-pointers per game, half of which came from Yogi Ferrell.

Crean set out to solve that problem in the offseason, adding Nick Zeisloft, James Blackmon, Jr., Rob Johnson, Max Hoetzel and Tim Priller to his roster. Each has been touted as a strong shooter.

On paper, the additions should fix at least a portion of IU’s problems from distance last season. Whether that will happen on the court remains to be seen.

A strong shooting performance in the season’s opening weeks could transform how defenses approach IU. If defenses take even one extra step toward the perimeter to guard Crean’s new shooters, the paint will open up, creating driving lanes and space around the basket.

Will shooters transform the offense?

Last season, IU all but abandoned the 3-point shot.

The Hoosiers attempted fewer
