Animal behavior added as COAS major

‘BEASTS’

By Neha Ramani nramani@indiana.edu | @neha_ramani

IU will join the ranks of a handful of universities to offer an animal behavior major this fall.

The new College of Arts and Sciences major will be housed under the Center for the Integrative Study of Animal Behavior and student advising will be handled by existing advisers in the biology department.

The major will include a core curriculum in the introductory sciences, mathematics, ethics and animal behavior. For now, the major will consist of existing courses across several departments.

Associate professor Laura Hurley, who teaches animal behavior in the biology department, said in a COAS press release that she has seen an increased interest in courses related to animal behavior in recent years.

“A lot of the students who take the animal behavior class are very excited about the new major, not just because they love the subject, but also because they feel that it will really enhance their credentials,” she said in the release.

Professor Troy Smith, the director of IU’s Center for the Integrative Study of Animal Behavior, said the long waitlists for Hurley’s animal behavior course made him realize the demand for an actual major.

A few students have already declared the new major, including sophomore Edyth McEvilly, who originally planned on an independent major.

“I am extremely excited to see what the program and professors have to offer,” she said.

“I’m looking forward to more hands-on experiences and a more focused curriculum.”

IU has long been a leading research institution in the study of animal behavior, Smith said, and employs faculty across multiple departments doing cuttingedge work in the field.

“The Center was formed over 20 years ago to bring together the different faculty in different departments,” he said.

Smith said students could previously pursue a minor in animal behavior or piece together an animal behavior curriculum via the Individualized Major Program.

“The major curriculum takes advantage of talented IU faculty in multiple departments, and will immerse students in

Receiving corps looks to reload, not rebuild

By Sam Beishuizen sbeishui@indiana.edu | @Sam_Beishuizen

Hanging on a wall inside the IU wide receivers’ room is a poster this group defines themselves by.

The poster is filled with pictures of the Hoosier receiving corps, including the senior trio of Nick Stoner, Shane Wynn and Isaiah Roundtree. Written along-

side the players’ pictures is the word “BEASTS.” “BEASTS” materialized when offensive coordinator Kevin Johns asked his receivers a year ago what it means to be a Hoosier wide-out. Twenty or so answers came in, but words such as bullying, effort, accountability, speed and toughness caught John’s attention.

Johns took those responses

and turned them into the acronym “BEASTS.” He put the acronym on the poster on the wall of the receivers’ room as a constant reminder of how the team wants to play.

“Each letter has its own meaning,” Stoner said. “Coach Johns had us write down what we wanted to play like — what each receiver wanted to be like — and we came up with that

acronym.”

Stoner is just one of a number of IU’s “beasts” who is expected to play an increased role in the passing offense this season. Only two of IU’s top six pass catchers are returning from last year’s unit, which combined for 201 catches, 2,997 yards and 29 touchdowns.

Monroe Hospital files for bankruptcy Associate dean named From IDS Reports

Bloomington’s Monroe Hospital filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy in an U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Indianapolis on Aug. 12.

According to the U.S. Courts’ website, a chapter 11 bankruptcy involves either a voluntary petition made by the debtor or an involuntary petition made by the creditor.

In the chapter 11 process, the debtor, usually a corporation or partnership, will generally offer a plan to reorganize their company while repaying their creditors.

In this case, it is expected the hospital will be sold to Prime Healthcare, an Ontario, Calif.based company that is currently managing the facility, Monroe Hospital CEO Joe Roche said.

Roche said he expects the transfer to be completed by early November and that none of the hospital’s more than 300 employees are expected to lose their jobs

during the transition period.

The 32-bed hospital on Bloomington’s south side owes around $134 million to various firms and companies, Roche said. He added that a bulk of this debt, approximately $121.8 million, is attributed to the hospital’s inability to make rent payments to its landowner, Medical Properties Trust.

Most of the loans the hospital was given were not received by the hospital and were taken out to cover fees and penalties, Roche said.

He said the hospital has been unable to pay the rent on its building since 2008 or 2009.

“It pretty quickly, after it opened, had to borrow money to sustain its operations,” Roche said.

“So while there have been periods of time – years – where the hospital was able to meet its operating cash needs and pay all of its bills without borrowing money, it still needed to pay the rent.”

The hospital, which Roche said

“It’s getting harder and harder for a small, independent hospitals to make ends meet.”

typically cares for eight or nine patients at a time, is facing some of the same financial struggles as many of the nation’s small hospitals in today’s health care environment.

“It’s getting harder and harder for a small, independent hospitals to make ends meet,” Roche said.

The hospital opened to patients in 2006 and will remain in operation throughout the coming months as the bankruptcy proceedings continue, Roche said.

“The court approved us continuing in operation and paying our employees and working with the people that provide supplies to the hospital during this period, so it’s business as usual.”

The new IU School of Global and International Studies has appointed faculty member Russell L. Hanson as its first ever associate dean, according to an August 19 press release.

Hanson will be the school’s associate dean for institutional planning while maintaining his current position as chair of the political science department.

SGIS Dean Lee Feinstein said in the release that Hanson’s academic record and experiences in various administrative roles at IU qualify him for the position.

“Russ’ experience and leadership will be instrumental in helping SGIS leverage IU’s unmatched strengths in regional studies and languages,” he said in the release.

Hanson has been a faculty member at IU since 1980 and chair of its political science department since 2009. He was acting dean of COAS Hanson in 1999 and 2000.

In addition, he was a teaching fellow at the Institute of United States Studies at the University of London and a fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Science at Stanford University. He also has been a visiting professor at several universities in the US and abroad.

Play360 builds playground abroad

By Amanda Marino ammarino@indiana.edu @amandanmarino

Volunteers at Play360 use one tool to provide teachers and students in developing countries with both educational material and fun: a playground.

Play360 is a nonprofit organization that trains organizations throughout the developing world to build their own educational tools and sends volunteers out to help organize and construct these playgrounds, said Jon Racek, founder and executive director of the organization and a professor in IU’s Department of Apparel Merchandising and Interior Design.

Six volunteers from Play360 traveled this summer to Salcaja, Guatemala, a small village near Quetzaltenango, Guatemala’s second largest city. In Salcaja, they built a playground made almost entirely out of recycled materials for the Las Flores School.

Racek has been traveling with volunteers to build playgrounds across the globe for four years, but he said it was a trip with the Kelley School of Business two years ago that provided him with the connections that made their trip to Guatemala possible.

While in Guatemala the first time with Kelley, Racek said he came in contact with Fundap, an organization that, according to its website, “[promotes] activities that support people and communities with scarce economical resources.”

“They’re sort of a perfect organization for us to work with,” Racek said.

Starting in March, Racek

said he helped the community organize the necessary preparations to allow them to begin construction upon arrival. A team of about 15 people helped collect tires used in construction, and another team of about the same size started to paint them.

By the time the playground was finished, almost 100 people had taken part in the project, including parents and teachers of local children, he said.

Sarah Rosenbaum, a graduate student in the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, also traveled to Guatemala and took particular notice of the dynamic of the local volunteers.

At first, she said, only the fathers were helping to construct the playground, but after a few days, mothers dressed in beautiful traditional clothing were wielding hammers just the same as their husbands.

“You realize we’re all people,” Rosenbaum said. “We all want the same thing.”

Along with Racek and Rosenbaum, senior Megan Wicker, IU alumna Katie Harryman, her mother Anne and Professor Douglas Gordon of Boston University also traveled as volunteers.

The trip lasted from June 26 to July 2 and it was a combination of work and play for both children and volunteers, Rosenbaum said.

“That’s how kids really learn best, through play,” she said.

The volunteers spent the first few days of the trip working from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., interacting with the children and their parents while putting together the playground

with surprising speed, Racek said.

“We got such a great community support ... that we were able to finish it in four days,” he said.

Racek said one of the things they built was a tire calculator, a row of tires with numbers painted on them that children can use to write out math equations.

But once the playground was finished, the celebration began, Rosenbaum said.

“When we were done with the playground, we had this really lovely ceremony,” she said, recalling getting to cut the ribbon that officially opened the playground.

The rest of the trip was spent touring Guatemala’s historical and cultural sights, Rosenbaum said. The group visited Lake Atitlan, hiked Pacaya Volcano, went ziplining, and explored the colonial town of Antigua.

“I kept pinching myself,” she said.

Rosenbaum said the build was definitely the most re-

warding part of the trip.

She said it was amazing to be able to provide a community with the tangible playground and the intangible benefits of this kind of project, such as instilling confidence in people that they can work together to make improvements in their wcommunity.

Both Rosenbaum and Racek voiced the importance of a trip like this one to people wanting to be part of the global community.

“It totally opens your eyes and makes you a more global citizen,” Rosenbaum said.

Play360 has three more trips planned for the coming year, including two to Guatemala and one to Nicaragua, Racek said.

“To people who are thinking about applying, I say just go for it,” Rosenbaum said.

Racek said no prior construction experience is necessary, but the experience of the trip is like nothing else.

“It’s really a special event,” Racek said. “I love doing it.”

Doug Bauder, coordinator at IU’s Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Student Support Services, said IU has always been a leader in GLBT rights despite its location in a traditionally conservative state.

This didn’t go unrecognized, as IU was recently named one of the top 50 GLBT-friendly universities in the United States by Campus Pride, a nonprofit organization that works to create friendly, safe environments for GLBT students on college campuses.

Bauder said IU has had appreciation for sexual diversity dating back to the work of famed IU Professor Alfred Kinsey.

He said though Kinsey’s work was controversial, when Herman B Wells received a call from the governor of Indiana condemning Kinsey’s teaching, Wells hung up the phone.

“You have that kind of a legacy to build on,” Bauder said.

What Bauder said he was most excited about by this list was the growth to 50 schools on a list that had previously only been 25.

“Many of those schools who are now on the list are schools that consulted with us on how to do this,” he said.

Bauder estimated he has given advice to no less than 200 campuses on how to create an effective support center and a GLBT-friendly campus.

While Bauder said he recognizes significant progress, he noted that not all of campus is a safe space, and there are still issues of harassment, though dramatically fewer today than at the GLBT office’s beginnings.

The GLBT office was founded in 1994, when there were fewer than two dozen like it in the country, Bauder said.

“Having that sign out there was the University’s statement 20 years ago that this has to be a part of the dialogue and not just in this corner of the campus,” he said.

Since then, Bauder said he has seen continued support from the university.

Last year, IU President Michael McRobbie publicly endorsed same-sex marriage and the Freedom Indiana movement, which is described on its website as a statewide bipartisan movement committed to defeating HJR-3, a proposed amendment to add a same-sex marriage ban to

Indiana’s constitution on top of existing state statute.

The GLBT office, formerly a student support center, is now grouped by the University with organizations such as Disability Services, is now grouped with the cultural centers on campus, Bauder said.

While Bauder said this will not affect the way the office operates, he said he sees this as a shift in the way administrators view gay rights and a movement toward viewing GLBT issues as diversity issues.

Shane O’Bannon, though only a freshman at IU, has spent much of his summer in the GLBT office and said he thinks the best part of it is Bauder.

“You can just walk in anytime and talk about anything you want to,” he said.

This summer, while participating in the Group Scholars Program, O’Bannon and colleagues worked to create the first ever gay-straight alliance to exist within the program.

O’Bannon said he was not surprised by IU’s place on Campus Pride’s list.

Bauder said the Campus Pride list is thoroughly researched and thought out

by Campus Pride’s executive director, Shane L. Windmeyer, who received his masters degree in Higher Education and Student Affairs Administration from IU. Bauder said Windmeyer was incredibly ambitious as a student and that he spent a lot of time in the GLBT office.

“He does not make life any easier for us because we’re IU,” Bauder said, noting there have been years where IU has slipped in the rankings.

Going forward, Bauder said one of his priorities is balancing the intersection of GLBT issues with issues of race and gender.

He noted that he sees some minority students struggle with a tension between their identities and says he wants to see students embrace all parts of themselves.

“At age 65, to see some of the progress I’ve made, to see straight students want to see their gay friends be able to be married, to see my grandsons talk about gay issues in such a loving way, its a wonderful thing to be a part of,” he said.

Panel educates local businesses

By Brian Seymour briseymo@indiana.edu | @briseymo

More than 50 people attended a free marketing panel event Tuesday night at the Bloomington Convention Center.

Featuring six guests from different backgrounds in the marketing realm, the program’s organizers sought to help provide local business owners with resources to properly market and improve their businesses, Alison Zook, membership liaison for LFB and owner of A.Z. Vintage, said.

Panelists discussed several forms of marketing, including social, digital and print, as well as how marketing is driven by culture.

One panelist was IU Kelley School of Business senior lecturer Benjamin Schultz, who took on the task of speaking about the academic approach to marketing as well as moderating the event.

Marketing exists on two levels, micro and macro, he said. Micromarketing deals with selling products and advertisements.

Macromarketing is about creating and delivering a standard of living and is more of a social process.

He also said that when marketing, business owners have to manage the four P’s: product, place, promotion and price.

Other panelists included Bloom Magazine Design Director Kaye Lee Johnston and author of Bloomington Fading, Derek Richey.

Following the 50-minute panel, patrons were invited to speak with each panelist one-on-one to better

nesses but the community altogether.

“We want the community to be empowered and informed about the types of marketing out there: what they’re being presented with by business and how that would differ on a

big-box store level as opposed to a local business,” Zook said.

LFB is a non-profit organization with pending 501(c)(3) status. According to their website, LFB is committed to supporting and promoting locally-

owned, independent businesses and encourages the community to purchase their products and services.

“When you buy local, that money stays in the local economy,” Zook said.

“Local businesses pay taxes locally.”

She said those taxes then support local projects like road and park maintenance.

“It’s more than just the actual product you’re buying,” she said.

“Your money and the taxes sustain our local economy.”

Bloomington Transit opened its passenger transfer center in downtown Bloomington Monday.

Located at the corner of East Third and North Walnut streets, the building will serve as a major transportation hub for commuters in the city.

The center includes amenities such as a climate-controlled public waiting area with wireless Internet access, a canopied outdoor waiting area and eco-friendly design elements such as high efficiency plumbing and light fixtures, according to Bloomington Transit.

Several fixtures, such as benches, bike racks and a wall sculpture inside, are projects by local artists.

The building’s second floor will also house City and County police dispatchers, providing a visible police presence in the terminal, according to Bloomington Transit.

Some route changes have been made affecting routes three, four and five. Routes three and five have changed several bus departure times, resulting in a timetable that has shifted by several minutes.

Route four added a new stop: Heatherwood Mobile Home Community. All bus times and routes are available at bloomingtontransit.com.

Twerk-tastic Taylor does it again Taylor Swift has apparently broken up again, because she’s out with a new song. Album details to come. We’re thinking “Blue” would be a nice change.

She’s also become another in a long slew

All of this makes us ask, “What did he do to you, Taylor? What did he do?”

OUR CHANGED WORLD

Backlash over Brown MICHAEL SU is a junior in violin performance and business

sadness.

For a small, minuscule moment in Indiana, we witnessed a glimmer of equality and basic human decency.

Same-sex marriage was legalized. Society didn’t crumble. Brimstone didn’t rain down upon us from the heavens.

And Pence should recognize that.

Michael Brown’s tragic death certainly does not speak well of my hometown.

But beyond all of the fuss, I believe that protesters may end up hurting their cause when rage and frustration take precedence against understanding and empathy.

On Aug. 9 in Ferguson, Mo., a suburb of St. Louis, a Ferguson police officer happened upon two men involved in a dispute of some sort, one of which was Michael Brown. When this officer exited his police car, Brown allegedly pushed him back into the vehicle, according to one account. A scuffle ensued, and Brown was shot multiple times by the officer.

Brown was unarmed.

Such is the world we live in. And, as I have discussed before, such is a local tragedy that can quickly escalate into a national discussion, sometimes permanently damaging the perceptions of a community.

With such a divisive issue as race, it is extremely easy for emotions to become conflicted before the facts are revealed. For those who have struggled under the yoke of systematic oppression, it is hard to not look at the issue and see Ferguson as the new Birmingham, Selma or Montgomery.

This incident, having come so soon after the hotbutton Trayvon Martin shooting, ignited tensions within the suburb. St. Louis is one of many cities that has experienced racial tension. The metro area’s sprawl continues to stretch ever-further west.

The areas surrounding St. Louis, such as Ferguson, have been labeled as poor and vulgar. This hasn’t pleased its residents. Add to that the implications of a Caucasian officer shooting an unarmed young African-American, and Ferguson had quite a bit of pent-up grievances.

This unnoticed tinderbox was rife with social unrest and tensions straining the community, nearly to a breaking point. The shooting of Michael Brown could be compared to shooting a bazooka at a land mine.

Brown’s death made him an icon, as the issue blew up quickly. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder directed the FBI to launch its own investigation into the matter. National figures, such as Reverend Al Sharpton and President Obama, jumped in on the issue, and soon CNN shined its precious limelight on the town. #Ferguson has now spread across the Twitterverse like a wildfire, and it is virtually impossible to escape the media onslaught.

For others who are fearful to speak a contrary viewpoint without being shouted down, Ferguson represents a turning point to where order and rule-of-law must prevail.

Both sides have valid points, and Brown’s situation is anything but standard operating procedure for the Ferguson Police, the St. Louis County Police or even the Missouri National Guard. This leads to a highly charged atmosphere that could result in someone doing something very stupid, leading us down a very dangerous path.

I implore both the authorities involved and the protesters to act calmly and rationally to the best of their abilities as justice comes with the legal systems in place, rather than through vigilante justice or retribution. We have seen the results of brutal payback before, and I pray this cycle of revenge will not start anew in the heart of America.

It might not be what you think it is WE SAY: Don’t tear down what’s built you up The campaign “hashtag” “Why I Don’t Need Feminism” became popular at the end of summer when the Tumblr blog “We Don’t Need Feminism!,” and others like it, went viral.

Young and slightly middle-aged women held up signs outlining the reasons they didn’t believe in the cause.

The campaign is meant to protest the sometimes abrasive and demanding nature of feminism, which, given that it’s a human rights campaign, it’s a little understandable how it might make a demand here or there.

In short, the campaign is dangerously selfish.

The women who participate fail to understand there are serious women’s rights issues that are pervasive and insidious, that harm and kill women and girls.

According to them, women don’t need feminism because they want to “respect all humans, not just one gender,” or because they “do not need a leg-up to succeed.”

Each sign demonstrated an enormously fundamental misunderstanding of what feminism is, especially given that the vast majority of their points are, in fact, feminist doctrine.

They painted feminism as a series of extremist groups that make extremist demands, who believe that women must defy gender norms and forsake make-up and dresses.

They tried to address the idea that feminism, when enacted by a group who does not understand its principles, can do to women what it seeks to avoid: pigeon-hole them into groups

and stereotypes.

They addressed an idea of feminism that does not exist, or at least, is not taken seriously even among feminist circles and in feminist debate.

It’s hard to take a protest seriously when the participants do not understand what they’re protesting.

But even more pressing is the fact that the campaign and the blogs that have sprung from it have fostered a dangerous environment that discounts the urgent needs of women internationally, not just in the United States.

It is important to note that the majority of the women participating in the “Why I Don’t Need Feminism” campaign seem to be Western and white, women who by default have been given privileges allowing them to see the world through rose-colored glasses.

Each of their objections discussed only the needs of the original poster, and they protested only the most basic stereotypes of feminism itself — the idea it hates men, that it wants women to be dominant and that it allows women to become victims of society.

And as college students, with many fantastic campaigns raising awareness about sexual assault on campuses and the issues of rape and abuse finally coming under serious scrutiny, it felt like taking one massive step backward.

It also dangerously discounts and belittles the lack of women’s rights. Not ludicrous demands for dominance over men, but serious issues that damage and profoundly affect the

lives of millions. Not once was the plight of the single mother considered or the need to have easy access to childcare.

Or the need to have fair and unbiased court trials, job opportunities, the need to end the wage gap or the need to reconsider erroneous double standards for gender.

Nor did these women discuss the need for peaceful race relations between women and the need to prevent environments that foster unhealthy competition for recognition or rights. Or the fact that women barely have any representation either in Congress or the media, women of color even less so.

And that’s just in America.

On top of that, the women who participate in this campaign fail to understand they are refusing a cause whose very existence has allowed them to post their pictures online, to read and write the signs they made.

If we are going to get anywhere, if we are going to address women’s issues, and by default address men’s issues as well via the idea that essential human rights must be given to all, regardless of gender, race or age.

Feminism wants to foster the idea that women deserve the same easy acces to basic human rights that men do, not that men all die a fiery death so that women can become the sole gender. We’re going to need to recognize that there are serious problems that have nothing to do with gender battles.

Once we do that, we can start coming up with serious solutions.

WORLD CLASS

A queer moment I will never forget the moment same-sex marriage was briefly legalized in Indiana.

I was sitting at my desk at my internship in Washington, D.C., reading a bill about international trade, when my phone buzzed.

It was a text from my partner, Daniel, telling me to check Twitter.

I immediately set aside what I was working on and read the first tweet.

“Judge strikes down Indiana’s ban on gay marriage.”

And in that moment, I burst into tears.

Even though I am not planning on getting married anytime soon, and

even though I was halfway across the country at the time, it meant a lot.

I suddenly felt like Indiana was more of a home.

The ruling by U.S. District Judge Richard Young indicated I would finally be recognized as a human being.

Now, though, I’m unsure what I am in the eyes of my state. Shortly after the ruling, Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller filed a stay to halt same-sex marriages in Indiana. It was granted.

Gov. Mike Pence’s administration then issued a memo stating the same-sex marriage ban in Indiana is “in full force and effect and executive branch agencies

are to execute their functions as though the U.S. District Court order of June 25 had not been issued.”

Pence refuses to abide by the ruling of a U.S. judge. He is instead regarding samesex marriages conducted as invalid.

Now, it’s nearly impossible to deny that Pence is eyeing the White House for 2016 or 2020. The governor has been traveling across the country and even overseas to the United Kingdom and Germany to bash President Obama’s policies.

And, in following the longstanding Republican tradition of treating samesex couples as second-class

citizens, Pence is grandstanding for his Republican supporters.

But he should stop wasting taxpayer dollars fighting this ruling. Moreover, he should recognize not only the same-sex marriages already performed, but any same-sex marriages performed in the future.

In all honesty, there will be those who say that as a man with a male partner I don’t exactly have a forgiving perspective on the Pence administration’s decision.

And yet I find myself writing this column, not filled with anger or spite, but with a great, profound

It hit me like a 15-carat princess cut diamond ring.

This past summer, I opened my Facebook newsfeed to pictures and videos of my college-aged friends getting engaged, or at least proposed to.

I was happy for them, but something about the posts seemed wrong. They were too perfect, too wellthought out.

In short, they just looked staged, not for the posters, but for the audience, their Facebook friends.

The idea of announcing an engagement so lavishly on social media exposes the couple to the extreme levels of negativity and judgment the online world sometimes produces.

Even more so, by posting videos and photos of an engagement, it seems like less of a decision and more of a show.

That’s not to say I don’t like hearing about my friends’ big life events. Getting engaged is one of the most important steps of a person’s life. It is a wonderful and incredibly intimate decision.

But this new Pinterestinspired trend of professional photographers, perfect nails and Instagram-worthy clothing for the photo can cheapen the moment and make it about appearances.

Intimacy is vital to the well-being of a relationship and a marriage. By overexposing your relationship, you lose much-needed privacy. You begin to qualify the healthiness of your

engagement by how many “likes” you receive.

Is it absolutely necessary to have a photographer or a family friend capture this intimate moment just so it can be posted on social media to be exposed to the world?

It is important to remember that anything and everything you post, up to and including your most personal material, will be used as a tool of comparison. If you allow overexposure, you risk destroying the intimacy of your personal life.

On top of that, it can simply be risky to put your most intimate decision out into the world, to be judged by others who in all honesty do not care about your relationship.

In this world of constant and continuous connection, sometimes it’s important to remember that keeping a bit of your life to yourself is not a bad thing.

It fosters healthy relationships, shields you from unfair judgment and allows you to focus on this next step of your life without a thousand little voices gnawing away at you.

At the end of the day, every important life decision has to be about you, not about how many views your engagement photo will have or how many people are going to “like” your marriage.

If they love you, they’ll like it anyway. eshrack@indiana.edu

ZIPPER UNZIPPED

Mental healthcare in America From David Foster Wallace to Robin Williams, we seem to be losing our artists at an alarming rate.

But moreover, it’s an indicator of the weight our country places on diagnosing and treating patients with mental health issues resulting from severe psychoses or chemical imbalances.

Robin Williams’ suicide on Aug. 11 further emphasizes that the state of mental health care in this country is grave. How can a man so talented, so funny, so damn kind, be so unhappy?

You could blame the fans or people who sent him hate mail. You could imagine he surrounded himself with people who treated him poorly or even that he was just down in the dumps.

Or, you can take a hard, productive look at the country you live in.

On Sept. 12, 2008, the writer David Foster Wallace committed suicide by asphyxiation, much like Williams. Here you have a man who was the voice of a generation, who wrote Great American Novels such as “Infinite Jest” and “The Broom of the System,” in addition to volumes of nonfiction, who was seemingly at the top of his career, ending it all because of depression.

Because depression doesn’t discriminate.

It doesn’t matter if you’re famous or successful or rich, it can still attack. Many times without warning or reason. Its attack is not like a heart attack or stroke. It’s a slow killer, and it’s often overlooked. Or, even worse,

stigmatized.

Nobody’s ever been to a hospital because of heart disease or cancer and told “it’s all in your head” or “just get over it.”

But people with depression face this every single day in America.

Because of this stigma, many people with depression never seek treatment, yet because it is a disease, it gets progressively worse.

For many, it seems like the only solution is to end it all. Many do. To quote a line from the very underrated 2009 Robin Williams film “World’s Greatest Dad,” “Suicide is a permanent solution to temporary problems.”

But I think this line is misleading.

Depression isn’t simply a “problem,” it’s an epidemic far more dangerous than many infectious diseases. And the reason it’s an epidemic is because we don’t recognize it as one.

Before penicillin, millions died from syphilis.

We have “penicillin” for depression, if you will: it’s just not sought out like it should be.

The stigma of mental illness must be lifted, and soon, before suicide surpasses heart disease as the number one killer in America.

As of 2011, it’s No. 10. ziperr@indiana.edu

It’s 1984 in Ferguson Over the past week, eyes around the world have been on Fergson, Missouri. There have been protests and candle light vigils every night since Aug. 9. Some of the protests have turned violent with police firing teargas and rubber bullets at both protesters and reporters, and looting by some of the protesters. The protests and vigils were sparked after police killed an unarmed teenager shortly after noon on Saturday, Aug. 9 as the teen was walking away from the police with his hands in the air pleading, “Don’t shoot, I’m not armed.”

One week after the protests began, Missouri Governor Jay Nixon declared a state of emergency and implemented a curfew. Captain Ron Johnson of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, speaking of the curfew, said, “We won’t enforce it with tanks. We won’t enforce it with teargas.”

It seems that Johnson’s pledge was quickly broken as several canisters of smoke and tear gas were used, and seven people were arrested for “failure to disperse” after the curfew took effect. He said police were trying to give protesters “every opportunity to comply with the curfew.”

One must wonder if the protesters arrested after the curfew began were given the same opportunities provided to the two reporters arrested last Wednesday in a Ferguson McDonald’s? During that incident, in which two reporters were arrested and released without charge police told everyone to leave a McDonald’s and initially told the

reporters they could stay. Wesley Lowery, a reporter for The Washington Post, said police returned a short time later, demanding that the reporters leave. Lowery says he was instructed to leave through one exit, then the other, as he turned his bag fell from his shoulder and he was arrested. Ryan J. Reilly from the Huffington Post was also arrested. The Washington Post reports, the pair of journalists “were then taken to the back of a police car, where they sat alongside a member of the clergy who had also been cuffed” for unknown reasons.

In a separate incident on the same night, police fired a “bean bag round” at a camera crew apparently for getting too close to an altercation between police and an individual they were detaining.

About 5 to 10 minutes later, police fired tear gas at another news crew. The first crew, from KSDK-TV, recorded this incident. KSDK reports the Al Jazeera America crew was yelling, “We’re the press,” and can be seen running away from the van. “Then two police officers can be seen taking down the crew’s television lights and tilting the TV camera toward the ground.” Police then approached the KSDK crew “with guns drawn” claiming to be responding to “a call that members of the media were in danger and in need of assistance.”

Clearly, the way you respond to media in need of assistance is to fire bean bags and tear gas at them, then come up to them with guns drawn. The incident takes another Orwellian turn. The next day, the

St. Charles County Regional SWAT Team released a statement, which reads in part, “The position of the St. Charles County Sheriff ’s Department is that the media has the right to cover these events and supports the freedom of the press, and the SWAT Team has not been any part of attempting to prevent media coverage. In fact, last night the SWAT Team officers were assisting the media in moving their camera equipment and media personnel to a safer area with their consent so that they could continue to cover the event.”

The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press sent a letter to officials in the Ferguson and St. Louis County police departments, as well as the Missouri Highway Patrol, stating, “Officers on the ground must understand that gathering news and recording police activities are not crimes. The actions in Ferguson demonstrate a lack of training among local law enforcement in the protections required by the First Amendment as well as the absence of respect for the role of newsgatherers.”

It can not be said enough that if there is to be a freedom of the press, which the U.S. Constitution supposedly recognizes, the freedoms and protections of the press should be extended to everyone who considers themselves a member of the media, and police should be consistently reminded that journalism is not a crime!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Ferguson: Nixon would make a solitude and call it peace Ferguson, Missouri is — pardon the unintended pun – a moving target. Events keep taking erratic directions, superseding comment as fast as it’s written. So I’ll open with context as of this writing: After a week of combat in the streets, governor Jay Nixon has ordered Missouri’s National Guard out to, as his office says in a statement, “help restore peace and order and to protect the citizens of Ferguson.”

The only part of the preceding statement to which we can reliably attribute any truth is the part about “order.” Police action in Ferguson has, from the moment of Michael Brown’s death, been about demonstrating who’s in charge and putting uppity citizens back in their place.

“Peace?” Let’s talk about peace.

Peace was the situation in Ferguson before an armed government employee gunned down an unarmed young man in the street.

I lived near Ferguson for 12 years. I drove an ice cream truck up and down its streets for two summers. I seriously considered renting an apartment in Canfield Green, the complex Michael Brown lived in, in 2012. So I can say, on reasonable personal authority, that media portrayals of Ferguson as some kind of crimeplagued racial ghetto are baloney.

Ferguson is, or at least was, an eminently peaceful community.

American “police forces” of today, on the other hand, are de facto military organizations, occupying the communities they claim to “protect and serve.” They are part and parcel of a political system which, by its very nature, evolves continuously toward complete control of everyone and everything – the exact opposite of anything having to do with “peace.”

This happens to be especially true of the St. Louis County, Missouri Police Department. While democracy is clearly no panacea for the problem of emergent totalitarianism, at least an elected county sheriff must theoretically account to voters for his and his subordinates’ actions. St. Louis County abandoned even that small nod to popular consent in 1955, replacing the sheriff/deputy system with an appointed “police chief” accountable only to bureaucrats whose main concerns are maximizing government size and revenue while ensuring that the sheep dare not resist shearing.

Based on years of personal observation, I can confidently state that in St. Louis County, the primary functions of the county police and most local departments are 1) writing speeding tickets to motorists on the expressways; and 2) harassing young black males in hopes of finding “contraband” (drugs) to justify police seizure

(referred to, in High Orwellian English, as “asset forfeiture” to reverse responsibility) of vehicles and other valuable property.

Yes, I just played the race card.

The Ferguson uprising should not be ascribed entirely to race — if you bother to look, there are plenty of white faces on the barricades there — but it’s an indisputable fact that race plays a huge role in how police interact with the citizenry in the area.

But just letting it be about race would be a grave mistake. It’s about power, control and the evolution of “police” over the last two centuries from local night watchmen and constables serving and protecting a consenting populace (“peace officers”) into large, militarized, authoritarian organizations serving and protecting the state (“law enforcement”).

To let the uprising die in Ferguson as the National Guard moves in to suppress it, or to regard that suppression as “peace,” would likewise be a grave mistake. If what we really want is peace, we need – to steal a phrase from Nicholas de Genova – “a million Fergusons.” Or however many it takes to prevail upon these occupying armies we call “police forces” to stand down.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Wynn will join Stoner on the outside looking to replace NFL rookies Cody Latimer of the Denver Broncos and Kofi Hughes of the Chicago Bears.

The 5-foot-7, 167-pound Wynn thrived in the slot last season, but he now moves to the outside, allowing for the 5-foot-11 Roundtree to take the slot position.

Unlike the taller combination of Latimer and Hughes before them, the outside combination of Wynn and Stoner will look to create space for catches using speed to blow by defensive backs.

The two are part of an IU receiving corps that’s the fastest it’s been in years.

Wynn runs a sub 4.4 second 40-yard dash.

Stoner doubled as a Hoosier track standout and as a sophomore took All-Big Ten honors as part of the 400-meter relay. He redshirted from track last season, but he’s highly regarded by his teammates as being the quickest player on the team and is looking to fully utilize his speed this season.

With more than half of the Big Ten’s defensive backs measuring more than 6 feet tall, the Hoosiers look to combat a lack of height with added emphasis on utilizing pure speed.

Because if there’s one thing the high-octane Hoosier offense likes to do, it’s go quickly.

Really quickly.

“It’s a lot faster this year,” Roundtree said of the offensive pace. “Last year, it

Another added wrinkle to the Hoosier receiving corps this season will be a trio of freshmen.

The three have caught the attention of the seniors and junior quarterback Nate Sudfeld, who at Big Ten Media Day, said this year’s group of receivers is the deepest he has played with in his career.

Freshmen Dominique Booth, Simmie Cobbs and JShun Harris II have all seen reps with starters during fall camp at practice. Roundtree said the younger players challenged the upperclassmen for playing time.

Roundtree has been particularly impressed by how quickly the freshmen have adapted to IU’s culture supported by the “BEASTS” mentality.

While Roundtree, Wynn and Stoner see themselves as the “foundation” of the new norm for Hoosier wideouts, the three have worked to mentor and push the younger players who are likely to get chances in games in the upcoming weeks.

“I feel like they’re so much more advanced,” Roundtree said of the freshmen. “When me and Shane and all of us came in, there really wasn’t a standard set … Now we know what it looks like, and I feel like that’s where you create a standard for your position at a school.”

With the wide receiver position led by the experienced senior trio of Wynn, Roundtree and Stoner coupled with the quickly rising trio of freshmen in Harris, Cobbs and Booth and the mid-class players in between, the Hoosiers have built a culture of competition among the receivers.

Johns said that every single day, the players will need to be on their game. If someone slips, others will be there to pick up the slack and the playing time.

He added that the internal competition has helped force opportunities in the field,” Smith said.

Biology advisers Danielle Murry-Knowles and Libby Tilghman said in the release that career paths for animal behavior majors include university or government research, animal training, the pet industry, conservation and rehabilitation, work in zoos and aquariums and other jobs that involve hands-on work with animals.

his receivers to stay on top of their games to ensure their playing time. If someone slips, others will be there to pick up the slack.

“You really can’t have an off day because they’re just going to go to the next guy,” Roundtree said. “Coach Johns said something about how he can just reach in the pot and grab a name out and we can just play with those guys. Competition is high.

“A lot of people are going to play. We keep a good vibe in the room, and we have a big standard for the wide receivers.”

“We are going to bring in researchers in animal behavior and representatives from relevant internship sites to tell us about opportunities in the field.”

interests,” Hanson said.

Hanson said the new school will build upon IU’s existing strengths and the growing interest of students and faculty in global issues.

“Establishing a new School of Global and International Studies is a large undertaking, and a vitally important one for a university like ours, which is renowned for its area studies

centers, language programs and social sciences,” he said.

Hanson said in the release he is excited at the prospect of what the school can become.

“I look forward to working with (faculty and students) to make the school a leader in preparing the next generation of policy makers, entrepreneurs and humanitarian aides and organizers operating on the world stage,” he said.

Renovating culture

The Mathers Museum is lined with photos and stories depicting the lives of Native Americans in World War I. It is part of a new exhibit called, "In Their Own Words: Native Americans in World War I."

Mathers Museum of World Cultures opens its renovations to public

By Alison Graham akgraham@indiana.edu | @AlisonGraham218

Eight months of work went into the Mathers Museum of World Cultures’ latest exhibition.

The 51-year-old museum underwent an in-depth reconstruction this summer, which created more exhibit space for the gallery and flexibility in its design.

The exhibition showcases nine exhibits on a range of cultural topics, which became available Tuesday.

Before, the Mathers Museum had three large, rectangular galleries that held mostly permanent collections, meaning that those exhibits were on display for multiple years.

The downside for IU students was that by the time they graduated, they might have only been able to experience one or two exhibits at the museum, director Jason Baird Jackson said.

To change that, the museum has split up its three galleries into different sections that include a more flexible space for shorterterm exhibits, opening up opportunities for students to see more of the museum’s vast collection.

The new renovations are part of not only the museum’s strategic plan, but of the campus’ overall strategic plan as well, Jackson said.

The Mathers Museum took into consideration the three “high impact practices” laid out in the campus strategic plan, which include study abroad, hands-on involvement and participation in research projects. These practices are meant to give students more concrete experience so they are ready to enter the work field after graduation.

To implement these, a redesign of the gallery space was a must for the museum, Jackson said.

“The galleries are designed to be the beginning of those paths,” he said.

Jackson said the new galleries make it easier for teachers to use the museum more effectively and allow students to become more involved with the research process and handson involvement with museum shows and exhibits.

Coming with the redesign are more than six new exhibits for Mathers visitors.

To go along with the College of Arts and Science’s Themester, “Eat, Drink, Think: Food from Arts to Science,” three of the exhibits explore food themes.

The first is an exhibit on the acai berry, which originated as a local Brazilian commodity and quickly became a global super food.

The exhibit explores the different ways the berry is being used and why it became so popular in such a short period of time.

The second food exhibit, “Food is Work: Tools and Traditions,” displays artifacts from different areas of the world, showing the process of growing food, discussing where it comes from and what is required to produce the amount needed to feed different areas of the world.

“People of the Coffee Highlands of Nicaragua” serves as the third food exhibit for the Mathers Museum. It traces the journey of coffee from the fields where it is grown to when it is produced, sold and drank.

The exhibit is composed of a collection of photographs depicting and explaining the complex journey.

The Mathers Museum is also setting up an exhibit about wall paintings done by women SEE MUSEUM, PAGE 11

Director Jason Baird Jackson shows off the storage space in the center of all of the exhibits. The walls of the storage area will be used in other exhibits.

The new “Instruments of Culture” exhibit features musical instruments and discusses how and why they are studied.

CultureFest returns to campus Thursday

By Audrey Perkins audperki@indiana.edu | @AudreyNLP

CultureFest returns to campus Thursday with new changes to the campus tradition.

Brian Morin, assistant director of First Year Experience said months of planning goes into the event.

“We start in the spring semester,” he said.

A variety of committees met in the planning process including cultural support centers, Union Board and FYE. His office, he said, hosts Welcome Week for the campus.

“We are pretty busy right now for all things Welcome Week,” he said The indoor portion is a highlight of CultureFest, Morin said.

It always fills up to the 3200 person capacity. A lot of planning went into organizing the entertainment for these people. In the last years they pulled away from using speakers in the indoor portion, he said. Now they use performers.

This year will be a 20-year-old Egyptian poet.

She is a student elsewhere in the country and speaks about international issues.

She’s big with international students, Morin said.

“It’s cool having a college student come and talk to college students,” he said noting that older speakers may be a bit detached from the audience.

A goal of this event is to teach a major skill to the incoming freshmen. As new people to campus, students need to learn to appreciate differences and interact

with others. CultureFest introduces students to new experiences.

The event is meant to set the tone for how they are going to spend their time here, Morin said.

To do this, there will be some changes to how the event runs.

“The general flow of it is the same,” he added. How-

Buskirk-Chumley premieres ‘Doctor Who,’ ‘Intruders’ Saturday

By Amanda Marino ammarino@indiana.edu @amandanmarino

A free showing of both the season eight premiere of BBC’s “Doctor Who” and a series premiere of their new show, “Intruders,” will be shown 7 p.m. Saturday at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.

The event, sponsored by both BBC and Xfinity

by Comcast, is intended to help celebrate the new series and the new season, said Rebecca Stanze, associate director of the Buskirk-Chumley.

She said this event is the

only free event of its kind in the country.

BBC helped select the location in part because IU’s students will be returning throughout the week for the start of classes.

“BBC approached us as a good community,” Stanze said.

Along with the viewing set to begin at 7 p.m., the doors will open at 6 p.m. to a lobby filled with cardboard cutouts of characters and photo backdrops.

“We seat 630, and we’re anticipating a full house,” Stanze said about the theater.

ever there used to be seven cultural areas, now there will be eight with the disability services for students included.

CultureFest will hopefully challenge incoming students on how to engage with other cultures, he said.

This is especially the case now, as IU rises as both a hub for international stu-

dents and a top sender of students abroad.

Last year IU was number five in the Open Doors ranking of schools that send students abroad. Furthermore, according to University statistics, international students are on the rise in the student population.

In fall 2005 they comprised 4.1 percent of the

undergraduate population.

Last year in 2013, they were 10.7 percent. That’s a difference of 2,255 students and an array of cultures included into campus.

Despite statistics, the best moment for Morin is when IU Auditorium’s doors open transitioning from the indoor portion to outdoors.

“You smell the food,” he

said, “You see the tents.”

Then you’re seeing 5,000 people in front of you, he said.

The fact that a diversity event attracts thousands of people was a fun aspect of CultureFest, Morin said.

When he visits conferences with other universities, he said people are always blown away by its numbers.

CultureFest After-Party ends night

By Audrey Perkins audperki@indiana.edu | @AudreyNLP

One of the highlights of this year’s Welcome Week is getting ready to launch.

CultureFest will enable students to experience the cultural diversity that makes IU an internationally distinct university. Open to students will be eight cultural areas to explore, not to forget the free food and activities available, such as henna tattoos and salsa dancing.

It will take over the vicinity of Showalter Fountain Thursday. Both IU Auditorium and IU Art Museum will hold First Year Experience festivities.

Brian Morin, FYE’s assistant director, said CultureFest’s main duty is to

reach out to first-year students.

“The whole week is to set forth a challenge to them,” he said. It’s to make them learn the relationship between sharing their story and listening to the stories of others, he said.

At its peak, the outdoor event will approach close to 5,000 students.

However, once the event trickles down, people don’t have far to go to continue their activities.

IU Art Museum will sponsor an after-party from 7 to 9:30 p.m.

Adelheid Gealt, director of IU Art Museum, said the event will act as a way for students to wind down.

“I think it’s just a chance for everybody to cele-

brate what they’ve already experienced,” she said.

In general, she estimated several hundred people attend. “It’s open to all the students,” Gealt said.

Much like CultureFest, which takes months to plan, Gealt said the event planning takes all summer.

“We’ve been doing this for a number of years,” she said.

Students can anticipate free art, music and food. Art from around the world will be exhibited and the electronic group PRXZM will provide music for the night.

The goal of the event is to get people familiar with IU Art Museum, especially freshman Gealt said.

According to its website, the IU Art Museum’s collections include more than

40,000 objects covering nearly every art-producing culture throughout history.

These objects range from ancient gold jewelry and African masks to paintings

by Claude Monet and Pablo Picasso.

The after-party is the latest of special events hosted

by IU Art Museum, the previous one being “The Language of Color” hosted in early August.

Though the after party is notably smaller than the main event, it offers the same end goal of all FYE events.

The goal is to get students acclimated and comfortable with the traditions and culture of Welcome Week, Morin said.

“Welcome Week is all part of orientation,” he said.

Men’s Soccer falls to Xavier in exhibition

By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94

IU entered Tuesday’s exhibition against Xavier with many questions. The answers started to become more clear after a 1-0 defeat.

IU allowed 38 goals in 2013, which is 20 more than it allowed in the 2012 season. Tuesday, a backline consisting of two freshman held strong against a Xavier attack which produced just one shot in the first half.

“I think the back line did well,” IU Coach Todd Yeagley said. “Xavier’s a good team. I thought in the first half we did a nice job limiting chances.”

The Musketeers began to see much more of the ball at the start of the second half and found the back of the net with 17 minutes to play on the counter attack.

“It was just an unlucky goal,” freshman Grant Lillard said. “Derek made a great tackle, just went off the guy’s shin and went right back to him.”

The IU offense tallied eight shots in the first half but, other than making the crossbar shake twice, had nothing to show for it.

The first shot which rang off the crossbar came from senior left back Patrick Doody.

The ball popped out to Doody about 30 yards from goal, and it caromed down off the crossbar right on the line but not over.

The second came off the head of senior midfielder Jamie Vollmer.

After his header rebounded into the middle of the box, Lillard had a wideopen shot from six yards out that he sent sailing.

“I went to kick it, leaned back and skied it over,” Lillard said. “Just disappointing, I’ve got to do better than

that next time.”

IU sent seven more shots toward goal in the second half. This time they managed to only knock one off the crossbar, while still sending no balls into the back of the net.

“The attacking part will come more as we get guys on the same page,” Yeagley said. “We had very few players in spots they played last year. It’s not going to happen day one exhibition with tired legs.”

For all the times IU wound up to shoot, Xavier goalkeeper Vince Shaw was only called into action twice all night.

Many Hoosier goal efforts were sent sailing into the night sky, while many crosses went untouched.

“We’d obviously rather see the ball in the back of the net,” sophomore Tanner Thompson said. “But sometimes chances don’t go your way. We have to do a better job finishing them.”

A key bright spot was the performance of freshman Grant Lillard in central defense.

The Chicago Fire academy player spent the full 90 minutes thwarting many Xavier attacks.

“He’s the piece that we need,” Yeagley said. “He brings size, and we’re not a huge team.”

One piece missing from the IU attack was junior forward Femi HollingerJanzen.

Hollinger-Janzen tallied five goals last season to tie for the team lead. The offense was missing one of its key cogs with Hollinger-Janzen on the sideline, Yeagley said.

“Some of the things we were struggling with a bit in the second half, he’s the player that would change that,” Yeagley said.

IU Field Hockey wins first exhibition match of the season 6-2 against Miami From IDS reports

In its lone preseason exhibition contest, the IU Field Hockey team defeated Miami (Ohio) 6-2 Tuesday night.

Instead of the typical game set-up, there were two 35-minute periods, a 10-minute overtime period and a shootout to allow the teams to see various game situations.

“Anytime you have a scrimmage where you go against an opponent outside yourself who plays differently, it gives you that opportunity to make adjustments to

something that you don’t do as a team,” 14-year veteran IU Coach Amy Robertson said.

“For us, it gave us a chance to see our people compete in games and how they do when they’re fatigued.”

Senior Audra Heilman scored a hat trick for the Hoosiers and junior Nicole Volgraf scored twice.

Morgan Dye scored once.

Last season, Heilman played in all 19 games and led the team with 10 goals and 12 assists, tying a single season school record for assists.

The Easton, Pa. native went on to be named Third Team All-American by the NFHCA. “We looked fit, we looked ready,” Robertson said. “You can play a lot of people in a lot of places, they just keep the balance and flow really well.”

IU will open the regular season against the University of New Hampshire on Aug. 29.

In its first of eight home games this season, the Hoosiers will play California on Sept. 5 at 2 p.m.

artifacts on display that show the life cycle of a human being, but from many different parts of the world. It compares regions like Africa and the U.S. with Asia and other parts of the world.

“The exhibit shows all different cultures coming together to show the same point in our lives but how they are all different,” she said.

The display focuses on how different world regions can impact the way lives can differ from one another.

Hadsell worked on finding new artifacts for the exhibit and researching exactly how they applied to the context of the exhibit.

Working at Mathers gave her a hands-on experience that Jackson hopes other students will want to experience from Mathers.

“Working here gave me a better experience than an internship,” she said. “It was really hands-on and I learned so much.”

To celebrate the re-opening of the museum, Mathers is spreading events throughout the semester that explore the specific exhibits.

Events include artist talks, family events and themesterthemed panel discussions.

These events will serve as a semester-long opening celebration for the museum.

The exhibit was curated by IU Art History and African Studies doctoral candidate Brittany Sheldon, who conducted field research on indigenous murals by women in this specific region of Ghana for her dissertation.

“Instruments of Culture” displays a variety of musical instruments and how they are used in a global setting and influence the culture of different regions where they are used.

A sixth exhibit is a collection of photographs commemorating the involvement of Native Americans in World War I. The exhibit not only has a large display of photographs, but also shares veterans’ stories and experiences.

The museum also updated some of their older and more permanent exhibits to freshen up its space.

“The Life Cycle” was one that used to be spread out throughout the museum but was redesigned and condensed by IU senior Andrea Hadsell.

Starting in January, Hadsell redesigned and reworked the exhibit.

“I had a lot of time this summer, so I’ve been doing everything from putting up new walls to scrubbing paint off the floor,” she said.

After ACL injury, Allen returns

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge comes to IU

By Grace Palmieri gpalmier@indiana.edu | @grace_palmieri

When safety Antonio Allen stepped onto the field for the first fall practice of the 2014 season, he was returning to football at a competitive level for the first time since Oct. 19, 2013.

Then a freshman, Allen suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in a 63-47 loss to Michigan that ended his season and kept him out for six months. “I just had to stay with positive energy and think every day it’s going to get better,� he said. “At first, I was down on myself, and I was hard on myself. I just felt depressed.�

Not only was Allen restricted by rehabilitating his injured knee during the spring, he had to learn a new defensive scheme — without being able to practice it on the field.

When Brian Knorr replaced Doug Mallory as defensive coordinator Jan. 20, he began implementing a 3-4 defensive scheme, opposed to IU’s old 4-3 scheme. Allen dedicated his time to studying the playbook and watching film so he could be back with his team come fall.

He said safeties coach Noah Joseph was instrumental in his recovery. “It was a struggle at first because I was in rehab every day, and I couldn’t go with the team to film,� Allen said. “Coach Joseph helps me out a lot. I’ll go upstairs in his room,

and he just helps me every day.�

Joseph, who has been with the team since February, said it was this desire and commitment to getting healthy again that impressed him most. “He does a good job of prioritizing his time,� Joseph said. “He’ll watch extra film and do the little things that can help make you a better football player.�

Allen, who was nicknamed “Woo� by his Ben Davis teammates in high school for the fans’ roaring reactions after a hard hit, brought that same

hard-nosed mentality to the IU secondary last season.

In just half a season, he had 35 tackles and a recovered fumble.

And in his first career start as a true freshman, Allen had nine tackles against Michigan before sustaining the ACL tear. “He’s a tough, no-nonsense football player and person, and I think that just rubs off on everyone and kind of gives our defense an identity out there,� Joseph said.

Throughout the summer, Allen has regained confidence

in himself, and so have the coaches. That showed when Allen took the field with IU’s first team during fall camp last week.

Joseph said he’s watched Allen make enormous progress from May until now and expects him to be a staple in the IU secondary. “It’s hard in the Big Ten to say you can play one guy every snap at a certain position, but he’s definitely going to be our main guy back there,� Joseph said. “I think he’s the guy that the whole secondary and defense leans on.�

Ohio State quarterback Miller hurt, out for season From IDS reports

Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller reinjured his right throwing shoulder during a practice Monday and will miss the entire 2014 season, the University announced Tuesday. “This is an unfortunate injury to a young man who means so much to this program and to Buckeye nation,�

Ohio State Coach Urban Meyer said.

IU will play Ohio State on Nov. 22 in Columbus at a time to be announced later.

Miller’s Buckeyes are grouped with IU in the newlystructured East Division of the Big Ten conference.

Since reports of his injury, Ohio State has dropped from 10-1 to 40-1 favorites to win the Big Ten, according to the sports booking organization Bovada.

Ohio State and Michigan State have both overtaken the

Buckeyes as favorites to take the conference crown.

Last season against IU, Miller wreaked havoc on the Hoosier defense, picking up 169 rushing yards and two scores, while throwing for 160 yards and two more touchdowns in a 42-14 Buckeye win.

Miller had surgery on his shoulder in February after injuring it on the first drive of Ohio State’s Orange Bowl loss to Clemson. He has since

been recovering from the injury while participating in camp activities.

Miller plans to come back for his fourth year of eligibility next season, he said.

He, along with IU junior quarterback Nate Sudfeld, was named to the Manning Award Watch List last week, which recognizes the best quarterback in college football each season.

Pay it forward with a twist: dunk or donate.

That’s the M.O. of the latest internet sensation, the ALS ice bucket challenge.

Challengers nominate their friends, giving them 24 hours to either drench themselves by pouring a bucket of ice water over their heads or donate $100 to the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Association. Challengees then become challengers, and the cycle continues.

The ALS ice bucket challenge has been circulating the web for more than a year, but it went viral July 29. It has since struck New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerburg, “Today Show�

Host Matt Lauer, performer Justin Timberlake, billionaire Bill Gates and the Kennedy family.

But a fundraising phenomenon that has taken off across political and celebrity circles first took root in the sporting world. The golfing community tasked each other with the decision to dunk or donate as a means to support various charities, eventually leading golfer Chris Kennedy to challenge his cousin, whose husband has had ALS for 11 years.

The ALS challenge caught national attention when former Boston College baseball player Pete Frates, who was diagnosed with ALS two years ago, began inspiring professional baseball players to unite around the virtually unspoken-about disease that has no treatment or cure.

An unstoppable force, the challenge hit Bloomington on Aug. 13.

Latest to accept the challenge is IU Football Coach Kevin Wilson, who took his bucket of ice the way many coaches have unwittingly over the years: in a Gatorade cooler dispensed by his players. But unlike Gatorade

baths of games past, this drenching has a bigger victory than winning a football game to celebrate.

ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease, is an often fatal neurodegenerative disease that causes patients to lose the ability to control muscles in their bodies. The ALS Association announced in a press release that in two weeks’ time, it has raised more than $7.6 million, compared to just $1.4 million in the same two-week period last year.

The challenge has helped bring awareness to and support for finding a cure for the disease, but more than that, it has given people a reminder of the power of collective movement: one that fills our browsers with generosity and positivity rather than rumors and criticism.

It is the same message that sport teaches us: to work collectively, to root collectively, to care collectively.

Sport would be irrelevant without the meaning that players and fans consciously give it. We give significance to putting the ball through the hoop, between the goalposts and into the net.

The same can be said of dumping a bucket of ice water over our heads. The act goes beyond the action itself.

It inspires Now, I’m challenging IU students and faculty to inspire each other.

Old friends, use the challenge to reunite after a summer apart. New students, use it to bring the floor together for the ultimate ice breaker. And above all, witness the power that collective care — and a good cause — can have on a campus of more than 40,000.

You have 24 hours. vziege@indiana.edu
