Casares resigns from IU office From IDS reports
Jason Casares, director of student ethics, has resigned, according to an IU press release Friday. Casares, who was a deputy Title IX coordinator, was accused of sexual assault last month by Jill Creighton, an as- Jason sistant director Casares for global community standards at New York University. The assault allegedly occurred at an Association for Student Conduct Administration conference in December in Fort Worth, Texas. Immediately after learning of the complaint, IU began an investigation, according to the release. Eighteen sexual assault hearings that Casares oversaw in his position as a Title IX coordinator are currently under review by Julia Lamber, an emerita faculty member of the IU Maurer School of Law, to ensure everyone involved received equal treatment in IU’s disciplinary hearing process. Tony Paganelli, Casares’ lawyer, maintained Casares’ innocence in a statement released Friday afternoon. “Even though the quality and integrity of Jason’s work for IU have never been questioned, IU had concerns for whether he could

FEELING THE BERN IU students help lead youth effort for Bernie Sanders By Hannah Alani halani@indiana.edu | @HannahAlani
Standing on the steps of the Indiana Statehouse, an IU freshman engaged the young and the old. “Currently six Super Tuesday states are ‘Feeling the Bern,’” Stanley Njuguna yelled. “Let me hear you say, ‘Revolution!’” “Revolution!” yelled the crowd. Njuguna, a future law and public policy major wearing a “Feel the Bern” T-shirt, explained in his speech why the Bernie Sanders movement will not lose momentum. “What we are is an enduring paradigm shift that will reconstruct the definition of what is possible within our democratic process,” he said. “One last thing to say for the opposition: Here. We. Come.” “Revolution!” the crowd yelled, before chanting: “Bernie, Bernie, Bernie!” About 300 gathered in Indianapolis on Saturday afternoon as part of “March For Bernie 2,” a series of marches taking place simultaneously in more than 70 cities. Organized by the official Bernie

Sanders campaign, these marches, along with weekend phone banking, were a last-ditch effort to garner support from Democrats in Super Tuesday states, who vote tomorrow. Sanders and fellow Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton have been neck and neck in the polls. Political analysts have wasted no time analyzing which candidate has secured certain demographics. The Indianapolis marchers, mostly white but varying in age and gender, were diverse in their representation of the issues at the heart of the Sanders campaign. A few elderly couples wanted expansion of veterans’ benefits and social security. A young girl, holding her father’s hand, waved a neon orange sign asking for a $15 minimum wage. A 35-year-old woman from Broad Ripple, Indiana, made four signs for the march, including “Cat Ladies Love Bernie,” “LGBT for Bernie” and “Legalize It.” “Bernie hasn’t changed his stance in 30, 40 years,” said Jen Rabourn, crafter of the LBGT, marijuana and cat ladies signs. Many times during former
“We are going to fail, like, massively as a generation if we continue to vote at the same rates that we are voting right now. We have to take control of our nation’s politics.” Stanley Njuguna, biochemistry major
president Bill Clinton’s administration, Hillary “flip-flopped” on issues that should be of great importance to young people, such as policy surrounding incarceration rates and gay marriage, Rabourn said. But most millennials were small children back then. “If they grew up during that time, they have no memory of all of that,” Rabourn said. “If they did have those memories, like I do, that might sway their opinions.” A grassroots movement that is constantly gaining momentum is hard to quantify, Njuguna said.

Figure skating club performs at spring show By Maia Rabenold
For IU, there was a lot on the line Saturday against Penn State. It was senior day for 6-foot1 forward Lyndsay Leikem. The possibility of a double-bye into the Big Ten tournament quarterfinals hinged on a victory against the Nittany Lions. The Hoosiers were playing for a historic undefeated regular season within the friendly confines of Assembly Hall. Led by second-year coach Teri Moren and just one senior, the Hoosiers had not been accustomed to any postseason pressure after last year’s 15-16 (5-15) record. The pressure did not mount against Penn State. IU raced out to a 21-9 first-quarter lead, which only grew, as the Hoosiers routed Penn State, 76-55 in the regular season finale. “They were playing for a lot today,” Moren said. “To go undefeated in Assembly Hall, for Lyndsay Leikem, for Big Ten seeding. They’ve played for a lot in every game.” IU (20-10, 12-6) will receive a double-bye into the quarterfinals of this week’s Big Ten tournament. The Hoosiers were named the No. 4 seed after Maryland defeated Minnesota on Sunday. The team’s seed is tied for the highest in program history; the Hoosiers were the No. 4 seed just once before in 1998. They must SEE IUWBB, PAGE 6

Music from “Star Wars,” “The Little Mermaid,” “High School Musical” and “Footloose” played as skaters took the ice Sunday afternoon. Skaters with inflatable guitars, pool floaties and lightsabers mixed traditional figure skating moves with dancing inspired by the films. All of the choreographed songs were part of the IU Figure Skating Club’s spring ice show theme “Movie Memories.” Junior Katherine Cole, vice president of the club, is in charge of picking the theme for this year’s show. She started with three themes she found interesting, and after asking the rest of the club, decided on songs from movies because of their emotional appeal. “You have to pick something that fits your personality and makes you feel comfortable on the ice,” Cole said. Sophomore club member Ashley Horner, who has been skating since she was 6 years old, said she decided to do her solo to a song from a Bollywood movie. She did a similar program several years ago and wanted to bring it back because it was so enjoyable, she said. “It’s so much fun,” Horner said. “The music is so unique and different. You can do a lot with it.” Senior Karen Tom, president of the club, said she also planned her music a while ago. She picked a song from the movie “Bride Wars” that embodies the feeling she wanted to

portray in the last solo she will skate with the club. “I heard it at my high school graduation and thought it was perfect,” Tom said. “It’s about growing up and moving on.” All of the seniors were presented and given a rose at the end of the show, which commemorated that their time with the club came to an end. The best thing about being a
part of the club is being able to continue an activity that she loves to do through college, Horner said. The connections created through a shared hobby make the club feel like a home. “It provides a way to unwind and make friends,” Tom said. “This club allows me to keep skating but not competitively. It’s not a huge time commitment. You make out of it what you will.”
Tom and Cole would not have become good friends if not for the club, they said. When Cole was a freshman, she had never met Tom, and now Tom is going to be a bridesmaid in Cole’s wedding. “The feeling you get on the ice and the bonds you make with people are indescribable,” Tom said. “When I’m having a bad day, I get on the ice for practice and all my worries go away.”

Business owners network at Black Market By Carley Lanich clanich@indiana.edu | @carleylanich
The first Black Market in Bloomington was open just three months before being burned down by members of the Ku Klux Klan. The market, established in 1968 at the corner of Dunn Street and Kirkwood Avenue, allowed local black business owners a place to buy and sell products made within the black community. Nearly 50 years later, students of the IU Black Graduate Student Association have taken to creating their own Black Market, open for one day each year during Black History Month. Katrina Overby, a fifthyear graduate student and community service chair of BGSA, said she was inspired to organize the first commemorative Black Market four years ago with friends after learning about the original market that burned down Dec. 26, 1968. “It’s just a way to commemorate the work that black entrepreneurs have been doing, just acknowledging what it takes to be a black business in an area where there aren’t that many African Americans,” Overby said. This year’s market was Friday at the Bethel AME Church and featured 10 to 12 local Bloomington businesses. These businesses sold handcrafted goods, food, services and more, while helping black students and Bloomington residents discover products and services that are vital to their community and that they may be unable to find elsewhere. Gloria Howell, a thirdyear graduate student and BGSA secretary, said the market also helps support businesses in Bloomington that may not receive as much exposure as other “mainstream” businesses. “A lot of these people, they sell things they may not

have in actual locations perhaps,” Howell said. “Black Market Friday gives black businesses a presence they may not have otherwise.” By attending the market, many people learn about various Bloomington businesses for the first time, Howell said. “It’s big, it’s special,” she said. “It’s a way for us as a student organization to bridge the gap between us and the community.” Each vendor at the event was also asked to provide an item for a silent auction with proceeds benefitting
BGSA community outreach programs. Authors Audrey Thomas McCluskey and Janet Cheatham Bell sold copies of their latest books on topics of black culture and history. Eight-year-old Naimah Saahir helped her parents sell key chains, learning a lesson along the way. “A black man invented the key chain,” Saahir said, referencing inventor Frederick J. Loudin. At this year’s market, BGSA awarded its first Business of the Year title to Hoosier Barber Shop for good
customer service. Barber Jay Thompson said the award blew him away. “I’m very excited about it,” Thompson said. “We want to be more than just a barbershop, but also a resource. We’re more than just a place to get your hair cut.” BGSA also invited Wayne Kimball Jr., vice president of global growth at human resource company Act-1 Group, to speak on entrepreneurship and the history of Tulsa, Oklahoma, otherwise known as Black Wall
Street. Kimball encouraged those at the market to reflect upon the past and to support local black business owners, who are often in the minority of businesses across the nation. “Be your brother’s keeper,” Kimball said. “Today is the day to empower those around us.” Marvin Jones, a secondyear graduate student and BGSA vice president, said he specifically sought out Kimball as Friday’s Black Market speaker not only because of his knowledge
of black business, but also because of his experience as a motivational speaker. “We wanted to help inspire as many of the patrons who came, as well as the businesses, to continue to grow and better themselves,” Jones said. Kimball’s speech reflected the message Howell said she hoped people would gain from visiting the market. “We hope that people take away that there are black-owned businesses in Bloomington,” Howell said. “And we support our own.”
Conference provides tech experiences for IU women By Eman Mozaffar emozaffa@indiana.edu @emanmozaffar
Women hold roughly 5 percent of all leadership roles in the technology sector. The Center of Excellence for Women in Technology aims to reverse this trend with its programs, such as the “Techie Women Have More . . . ” conference. The conference, which took place Feb. 27-28, featured speakers, panels and breakout sessions for women in technology to explore different areas of the field, as well as build confidence in themselves and their work. “Be confident when you’re the only woman in the room because that will probably be the case for a while in your tech careers,”
said Robin Steis, IU alumna and director of federal sales at Interactive Intelligence. “We aren’t any dumber than the men. They just aren’t as afraid of failure, which is something we need to work on.” Steis, along with three other women who graduated from IU and now work in the technology field without holding a degree in a related field, sat on the plenary panel during the conference. The women spoke about their experiences as women in technology, providing career advice and answering questions asked by attendees. “Technology majors are not the only people who are involved in technology with their career paths,” Steis said. “Having skills and net-
working in this field is crucial for everyone because tech is relevant in every sector in this age.” The events planned for the first day of the conference were primarily geared toward faculty members and professionals, whereas the second day’s events were planned with IU students’ needs in mind. Another flagship event at the conference included a career expo, where several companies, including Deloitte, University Information Technology Services and Progressive Insurance, set up information desks. Representatives spoke about job opportunities and internships in their companies, both for the summer and upon graduation. Several employers who
were present at the career expo also presented their own workshops during the breakout session. Their topics of discussion ranged from navigating an early career, developing a personal brand and advancing a career with continuing education. Avis Yates Rivers, president and CEO of Technology Concepts Group International, gave a keynote speech at Alumni Hall, where she addressed the state of girls, women and technology. Rivers gave her listeners advice on how to maneuver in a workforce that is predominantly white, Asian and male. She said bias, while typically unconscious, is not always unintentional.

Maurer alumni, faculty awarded at ball By Austin Faulds afaulds@indiana.edu | @a_faulds9165
Faculty and alumni of the Maurer School of Law were awarded at the Raphael M. Prevot Jr. Barrister’s Ball on Friday for their contributions to the school and the legal community. IU’s Barrister’s Ball is a national event celebrated annually at the Henke Hall of Champions. Every law school in the country has their own Barrister’s Ball, Barrister’s Ball Chairman Elaena Harris said. The ball is put on by the Black Law Student Association, making it one of three in the country to be put on by a student organization other than the Student Bar Association, according to the IU BLSA website. The BLSA is a national organization that uses the legal
community to promote awareness of the needs of minorities. The ball is a ceremony recognizing those who have distinguished themselves in the Maurer community. “It’s a celebration of people’s really hard work and accomplishments,” first-year law student Morgan D’Arcy said. The event commenced with cocktails and socializing, followed by dinner, awards and a dance. Three awards were given to distinguished alumni and faculty of Maurer this year. The Samuel S. Dargan Outstanding Award was given to Rachel Dawson, assistant dean of the Career Services office and a 1999 Maurer graduate. The Dean Frank Motley Outstanding Faculty and Staff Award is given to faculty members who have provided
years of dedicated service to the Maurer community. IU professor Kevin Brown received the award this year. Brown is in his 29th year of teaching at Maurer. The Outstanding Interactive Professor Award is given to professors known for going above and beyond in the classroom. It was given to IU professor Aviva Orenstein. Orenstein teaches courses about civil procedures and family law at Maurer. She has worked as a court-appointed special advocate for abused and neglected children. She also does pro bono work in the local family court. Since he is only a first-year law student, D’Arcy said this is his first time at the Barrister’s Ball. He said he was very impressed with all the work put into the event, and he said he plans to continue going to it in
the future. Rapheal M. Prevot Jr. is the namesake of the Barrister’s Ball. Prevot was a 1984 graduate of Maurer. Harris said Prevot’s active involvement with Maurer makes him “special” to Maurer and the BLSA. Prevot served for 15 years as labor relations counsel for the National Football League in New York. During this period, he was inducted in the Hall of Fame for the National Bar Association’s Entertainment, Sports and Arts Law section. Prevot also continued contributing to the IU community by serving on the Alumni Board and later the Board of Visitors. In 2004, he was honored with the Distinguished Service Award for his work for Maurer. In 2011, he was posthumously inducted into the Maurer School’s Academy of Law Alumni Fellows.
overcome these obstacles, there are several resources and strategies to succeed, she said. CEWiT public relations intern and IU senior Sophie Babcock said her experiences with the organization have helped her expand potential job opportunities for the future. “Even though I’m a journalism major, I’ve realized a lot of PR agencies have tech clients,” Babcock said. “I’m more confident, and I have done a lot of work in the technical side of things.” Babcock has reached out to associations to spread the word about the organization’s work, marketed social media and acted as a spokesperson for CEWiT across campus. She said her experience
“Women in technology are often misunderstood and underappreciated.” Sophie Babcock, CEWiT public relations intern and IU senior
in working with women and technology has clarified several misconceptions about the field — for her and for those with whom she interacts. “Women in technology are often misunderstood and underappreciated,” Babcock said. “We want to provide a support system, first and foremost, and give women the greatest opportunities to build skills in coding and web design because we know they can do it just as well as anyone else.”
CLARIFICATION A story in the Campus section of Friday’s edition of the Indiana Daily Student did not mention communities predominately populated by people of color are also disproportionately exposed to unsustainable practices. The article should have included race, even more than class, is the greatest determinant of unsustainable practices. The IDS regrets this error.

Junior crowned in Miss IU pageant Sunday By Sarah Gardner gardnese@indiana.edu @sarahhhgardner
Students sang, danced, played instruments and showcased their talents in other ways to earn scholarship money at the Miss Indiana University scholarship pageant Sunday evening in the Indiana Memorial Union’s Alumni Hall. The Miss IU scholarship pageant, organized by the student group Pageantry at IU, is a preliminary pageant for the Miss Indiana and Miss America pageants. The
winner of the pageant goes on to represent IU at the Miss Indiana pageant in June. “A pageant could just be superficial, about looks and not about a greater purpose,” said Theresa White, director of Pageantry at IU. “But depending on the attitude you bring to it, it can be about personal growth, finding your voice and building confidence and values. I really think the contestants did that tonight. I’m always so impressed by them.” The 11 pageant contestants took part in interview, onstage question, talent,
evening gown and swimsuit categories. The pageant’s winner receives a $1500 scholarship, the first runnerup is awarded $1000 and the second runner-up receives $500. Smaller scholarships are provided for winners of individual categories within the pageant. Miss America pageants are built on the values of style, service, scholarship and success, White said. Each contestant develops a platform for a cause or social issue they care about and have invested time and energy in.
The winner of Miss IU 2016 was junior Justus Coleman. Her platform was cultivating sisterhood and support among women. “This proves to me that I don’t have to doubt myself or my mission,” Coleman said. “It brings me so much joy to be able to support women, and now I have the opportunity to be a role model for even more people with a platform I really care about.” Last year’s Miss IU winner, Lauren Mnayarji, served as an emcee for the event. After winning Miss IU, Mnayarji was the third runner-up at
Miss Indiana. “Though being onstage is fun and exciting, the work we do offstage and the relationships we build are what have the biggest impact,” Mnayarji said. “And as I continue to find my voice, I will keep sharing it with the world.” The pageant was sponsored by the IU Student Foundation, the Miss America Organization and South Central Kiwanis. The student group Circle K also teamed up with Pageantry at IU to organize a food drive during the competition, helping to emphasize the service
element of the pageant’s mission, Pageantry at IU president Morgan Geer said. Instead of paying for a ticket, people attending the pageant were asked to bring a food donation. Miss IU is the only student-run pageant in the state, Geer said. “It truly is a sisterhood up there with all the girls on that stage,” said contestant and first runner-up senior Kyla Brummett. “You have not only the support of your family, but the support of every student involved in the pageant, which is amazing.”
Students talk abortion, reproductive rights at forum By Erica Gibson ecgibson@umail.iu.edu @ericaclare_05
No yelling, no interrupting, no hostility. A group of 93 students spent more than five hours Saturday discussing, not debating, abortion and reproductive rights for the 7th annual Political and Civic Engagement issues forum. The forum is part of PACE-C400: Issues Forum, a single credit hour course open to any IU student and offered by the PACE certificate program. PACE director and professor of philosophy Sandra Shapshay said the issue forum aims to create a
respectful space to have difficult conversations. “It’s not about being right or wrong,” said event organizer Lisa-Marie Napoli. “Everyone here has different backgrounds, and because of these differences we can have interesting and engaging conversations.” Napoli challenged students to talk with someone who disagrees with them. After check-ins and introductions, students divided into eight small groups to discuss assigned readings on abortion, democracy and philosophy. Napoli trained 15 PACE students to work as neutral moderators during the
group sessions. Lauren Godshall, a junior in the PACE program, began her group’s discussion by asking students how they came to have the values the have regarding abortion. Many of the students referenced their religion. Maria Guido, a sophomore religious studies major, said she plans to become a Lutheran pastor but strongly identifies as pro-choice. “There’s a tendency to just go with what the church says,” Guido said. “But that can be negative.” Freshman a Haney was raised by conservative parents and attended a private Christian high school in In-
diana. Her dad bought her a pro-life license plate for her silver Saturn SUV. Haney identifies as pro-choice but uses the license plate anyway. “Pro-life does not equal anti-choice and pro-choice does not equal anti-life,” Haney said. No one in the discussion openly identified as pro-life. Their group agreed abortion is full of grey areas and is affected by outside issues like politics and socioeconomics. Other students at the forum had varied opinions, but remained civil. “Having a conversation about abortion isn’t comfortable,” Godshall said. “But
it’s important.” Godshall was one of the original proponents of making abortion the focus of this year’s forum. “It’s a topic that’s not often discussed,” Godshall said. “And it’s not often discussed in a safe space.” Students attended an expert panel between discussion sections. Each of the four panelists represented a different perspective on abortion. They covered the historical, philosophical, legal and medical aspects of the issue. “It’s curious to me how common this procedure is and how little people talk about it,” IU Health Cen-
ter Staff Physician Judy Klein said. Back in the discussion group, students told Godshall they were moved by professor of law Dawn Johnsen’s argument that limiting abortion primarily hurts minorities and the poor. They agreed the key to reducing abortions was implementing better sex education programs and ensuring the availability of prenatal care. Godshall said the students’ empathetic conversations about abortion exceeded her expectations. “They were very respectful,” Godshall said. “It gives me hope.”
Student stabbed in attempted robbery on campus Sunday From IDS reports
A male student was stabbed in an attempted robbery at about 3:15 a.m. Sunday. The crime occurred just south of Law Lane and Union Street near the railroad tracks, IU Police Department
Capt. Andy Stephenson said. It is unknown from which direction the suspect approached the area. The student left his dorm sometime between 3 and 3:15 a.m. to go for a walk, Stephenson said. The suspect approached the student and asked for money, according
to an IU Notify emergency update. When the student said he had no money, the suspect patted him down, stabbed him and fled, according to the update. The victim returned to his dorm by about 3:30 a.m., Stephenson said. The victim was taken to IU Health
Bloomington Hospital by a friend after being stabbed once in the abdomen, according an IUPD press release. The victim’s injuries did not appear to be life-threatening. An IU Notify alert was released at about 5 a.m.

The real murderer is unidentified to this day. In Florida, however, some think they know the culprit. Public Policy Polling found that 38 percent of
Florida voters think that the Zodiac killer could be Presidential candidate Ted Cruz. What started as a joke on twitter, spread with #zodiacTed, has become a real conspiracy theory, despite the fact that the first Zodiac killing happened before Cruz was born.

Chicago State is falling apart WE SAY: Illinois should be funding its colleges Return those flight tickets for your vacation to Cancun. Spring break has been cancelled for Chicago State University due to budget constraints. Like many other state universities, CSU gets a percentage of its income from state funding, allowing them to keep tuition lower than many private institutions. However, after an eightmonth stalemate in the Illinois government, 12 public universities are still waiting for state funding. The impasse is due to a budgetary disagreement between the Republican governor and the democratic general assembly, according to a Washington Post article. We believe this political blockade is a direct insult to
students throughout Illinois. In addition to changing their academic calendar, CSU is projected to run out of money to pay faculty by March 1, according to a Chicago Tribune article. But this south Chicago university isn’t the only university struggling to make up for a deficit. Thirty faculty members were laid off at Western Illinois University. Kishawaukee Community College has put a hold on hiring new faculty, and the existing staff was asked not to travel, a CNN Money article reports. Not every school is suffering the same fate. The flagship University of Illinois is just starting to feel the strain of eight months without funding. With a strong
alumni base and a $2.4 billion endownment, the university has more time to find funding. If a situation like this were to happen in Indiana, IUBloomington would likely fare similarly to University of Illinois. With a $1.97 billion endownment, the campus would have time to adjust scheduling and faculty pay schedules to keep the University afloat. Although IU is a state university, student fees make up 79.8 percent of the 2015-2016 operating budget according to the IU budget release of the same year. Of the $532 million in state funding, IUB gets the lion’s share with $206 million. If any of the IU campuses were to lose funding, the
administration would likely have to raise tuition in an attempt to keep the schools open. In Illinois, it may be too late for tuition hikes to make a difference. Many state schools, such as Western Illinois, have had a 25-percent drop in enrollment since 2006. Raising tuition would likely push college out of an affordable range for many of the remaining students. The foundation of a state college is to subsidize education for state residents. This allows the population to stay educated and be a part of the working economy. State colleges will not be any different from private institutions if their tuition puts them out of range for an average family.
THE COFFEE CHRONICLES
The court of public opinion is too quick to convict An integral part of Gillian Flynn’s “Gone Girl” is the public opinion turning against Nick, one of the two protagonists. For those of you who haven’t read the book or have no plans to do so, Nick’s wife disappears and he is the prime suspect for her murder. People all across the country view him as a murderer, even though they do not know the full story. While Flynn’s novel was positively received, to me, it was terrifying. Sadly, this is the trend that I see the American media following. From Casey Anthony to Amanda Knox, the court of public opinion has reared its head multiple times. While the American people should have an interest in the legal system, having the media almost declare their opinion is negative and harms the tenet of our justice system: Innocent until proven guilty.
The public had such high importance in the novel that the protagonist was terrified for his future, just based on their accusations. Any jury he would face would be biased against him, and there was nothing he can do about it. In 2011, attorney Jose Baez said, “You cannot convict someone until they have their day in court.” He was representing Casey Anthony in her daughter’s murder trial. On the day of the trial, there was a line to get into the courthouse and even more people were commenting on Twitter and Facebook about it. While the crime in question was severe, jurors had to make their decision based on the evidence they are presented. This is not the same for social media and the media. Television host Nancy Grace declared her own verdict: “Somewhere out there, the devil is dancing tonight.”
This sentiment was echoed by multiple tweets and Facebook statuses. A similar situation occurred with Amanda Knox, dubbed the angel-faced killer. The Italian court’s verdict to exonerate her was based off inconsistent evidence, and The New York Times reported that the media hype surrounding the murder of Meredith Kercher, Amanda’s roommate, caused the trial process to be rushed to find a suspect. The public has a right to know what is going on in the world. They deserve to know about murders, assaults and the situations that occur in their area. However, the right of a fair trial becomes confounded when the media has such a big effect on public opinion. While it is possible Anthony killed her daughter and Knox killed her roommate, there is also a chance that

none of them did anything and the evidence proved that. I do not believe we will stop having opinions on court cases. Humans are judgmental creatures, and people like having a position on popular topics. However, “innocent until proven guilty” is an integral part of our justice system. Without substantial evidence, there is no way anyone can have a fair trial in the United States. If I was on trial, I would prefer knowing the jury knew nothing but the facts presented to them by both sides. It keeps me secure in knowing I’m not a thriller-novel character with no control over my situation. npatwari@indiana.edu

A new bill called the Sexual Assault Survivor’s Rights Act has been introduced into the Senate and will standardize the rights of sexual assault victims. The system for pressing charges of sexual assault is convoluted, making prosecution extremely difficult for victims. Hopefully, this bill will begin to provide an easier and less emotionally damaging process for sexual assault victims to receive justice. Currently, states have various systems of cataloguing and testing rape kits, but this bill will standardize those systems. It will allow survivors to know where their rape kit is at all times, whether it has been tested and what the results of that test are. This is incredibly important for sexual assault survivors who decide to press charges. Not every survivor decides to press charges right away, as a trial is often a harrowing and emotionally traumatic experience. Investigations into sexual assault cases have been known to devolve into discussions of what the victim was wearing at the time and other unhelpful and victim-blaming inqueries, therefore a lot of survivors choose not to prosecute. Despite the importance of these kits, many police departments have mishandled this evidence. According to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network, there is a backlog of rape kit tests that are backlogged because tests are never sent to the lab, or the lab never tested it. In November, the
JORDAN RILEY is a senior in comparative literature.
Guardian reported on rape kit procedure and this backlog, finding that police departments would destroy rape kits if “they deemed allegations unfounded, alleged that victims didn’t cooperate or arrested suspects without the benefit of DNA.” If a survivor decides to press charges, the rape kit is integral to his or her case. Not only does a rape kit attempt to use DNA to identify the attacker, but it also is usually the only physical evidence available to show that a crime was committed. This bill will standardize the procedures and will allow victims to keep track of their rape kits. This standardization will greatly ease their struggle to press charges. This bill will also require that victims have access to sexual assault counselors and are educated about their legal options. The Sexual Assault Survivors Rights Act will also implement a task force to observe the changes made and their effectiveness. This bill is a huge step for rights for sexual assault survivors. For a long time, the system has been broken for sexual assault survivors, extending the trauma of the crime committed against them. Hopefully now, we are one step closer to giving these survivors justice. Jordrile@indiana.edu @RiledUpIDs
WHO’S SANE
Building trust in science When dealing with issues of an unpredictable world, science should be the guiding light of truth. Too often, scientific research might not be trustworthy. Much of the recent research in the social sciences, including psychology and sociology, isn’t reproducible. Brian Nosek, professor of psychology at University of Virginia, said only 36 percent of psychology research results in 2008 could be reproduced. This might have been because certain experiments may have confirmed false positives or used different research techniques. When scientists can’t repeat experimental work, they can’t confirm results, check for errors or improve those results in other ways. And this means that we, the general public, become more confused. It’s difficult to understand what to trust, and it’s easy to be skeptical of everything. This past weekend, I had the wonderful opportunity to present my research at the Emerging Researchers National Conference in Washington, D.C. I spoke with Marcia McNutt, geophysicist and editor-in-chief of the journal Science, about getting the public to appreciate science while still taking things with a grain of salt. McNutt said there is no perfect answer to the balance between trust and skepticism of science, but we should teach science as an evolving body of knowledge and a way of thinking about the world, not as a strict set of facts. She said it’s about continuously and endlessly building and changing theory while simultaneously providing answers we can trust. In light of McNutt’s response, the science community should teach the general public to trust scientific research both for its benefits to society and the appreciation of science itself. This means science is less of a collection of information, but more about a way of reasoning, form-

ing hypotheses, arriving at conclusions and finding solutions. If social science researchers can adapt methods of studying science that scrutinize their methods of studying, rather than simply a means to produce results, this may help solve the reproducibility crisis. Psychologists and sociologists should analyze their theories of behavior and make sure their research can be verified by other researchers. McNutt also said the solution should start in the way we teach science in schools. Students should think like scientists to examine methods of inquiry, scrutinize findings and empirically investigate problems with deliberation. This also means we shouldn’t primarily brand science as a way to get jobs. A science-education curriculum focused on this productivity won’t do justice to the true value of science and, as a result, leave future scientists ill-prepared for their careers. At the Emerging Researchers National Conference, I presented my research on genetic information in the human brain. I discussed my difficulties of obtaining information from other scientists during my research while respecting the privacy of mental health data. Similarly, scientists can move to be more transparent with their data by reporting their replication methods during peer review. Like everything else in the world, scientific research is never simple and straightforward. When we know how to trust science, we can learn more about everything we do. As McNutt put it, “Never stop being a student.” sather@indiana.edu @SHussainAther

Leaders honored during gala By Anne Halliwell ahalliwe@indiana.edu @Anne_Halliwell
In a room full of mentors and teachers, Lawrence Julius Hanks looked back at his community as he was honored. The annual Black History Month Gala honored several community members Saturday night at the Hilton Garden Inn. Hanks, a third-year doctoral student and associate instructor in IU’s School of Public Health, helped found REACH, a student group that marries cultural diversity and health studies. Hanks received the 2016 adult Outstanding Black Male Leader of Tomorrow award. “When it comes to awards, they mean a lot to me because it means my community believes in me,” Hanks said. “I take that belief and put it back into my students.” Hanks was raised in Bloomington and said the city has supported him throughout his high school and graduate years. His sister, brother and niece surprised him with a visit from Atlanta for the ceremony. Many of his mentors, professors and church leaders also attended the Gala. Hanks said he looks at how many people have invested time into him and his work, and realizes his victories are also a product of their efforts. “The success is bigger than you,” Hanks said. Rafi Hasan, Bloomington’s Safe and Civil City director, praised Hanks’ accomplishments, as well as his attitude. “He just gets it. He’s a young person who under-

stands he’s caught in the past and present,” Hasan said. Hasan compared Hanks to a crop that ripens, then seeds for the next season. “He understands that other people have opened doors for him, invested in him,” he said. “In doing that, he’s started doing the same thing right away.” Hasan said February’s Black History Month events should encourage people to consider their own history, something he thinks of as an obligation. The current political climate can be demoralizing and vitriolic, but people can also look back to their ancestors for ways to move forward, Hasan said. “In all of that, there’s an element of love that has pushed those generations,” Hasan said. “I have to now make sure I’m doing the same.” Hasan’s grandmother
died, but he said her history lives on through him and the anecdotes he took from her. “It’s a beautiful struggle,” Hasan said. “We have to tell it and remember it and wrestle with it and be okay with being uncomfortable with some of the things we hear.” Dexter Charles Griffin received the high school Outstanding Black Male Leader of Tomorrow award for his involvement at First United Methodist Church and philanthropy. The Gala’s silent auction included books by John and Audrey McCluskey, dinners with city officials, gift baskets and art. The McCluskeys received the Living Legends award for working in African American and African Diaspora Studies, working pre-retirement at the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center, serving on Bloomington commissions
and organizing events for the city. John McCluskey, currently a member of the Commission on the Status of Black Males, said the two always remembered the importance of working outside of campus, even as new professors in 1977. McCluskey is currently a member of the Commission on the Status of Black Males, which focuses on education, criminal justice, employment, and health and wellness. McCluskey said he still works with graduate students at IU but relishes teaching anyone “who is hungry” and “willing to learn more, to see more.” “We’re still teaching in different venues, different ways, but we are still teaching,” McCluskey said. “The awareness, the alertness that comes from an awareness of history is hugely important.”
National maple syrup festival kicks off By Cody Thompson Comthomp@indiana.edu @CodyMichael3
Brian Whitted helped his children push taps into a tree. The kids hammered them in deeper with a wooden block. After a moment’s hesitation, the taps released the clear sap in slow drips that eventually became a steady stream of liquid pouring into the buckets that hung underneath. Whitted, his two sons, Alex, 9, and Jacob, 7, and their grandmother Denise Rathert ate breakfast at Creekside Retreat on Saturday before joining many others in hunting for maple trees in an effort to collect sap. The family participated in Tap the Town, the opening weekend event for the National Maple Syrup Festival taking place in Brown County State Park March 5-6. This is the first time the family has attended the event, but the second year the event took place at Brown County. The event is organized by the Brown County Convention and Visitors Bureau, but the executive director, Jane Ellis, said she hopes to create

a board specifically for Tap the Town in the future. “I am absolutely fascinated by how much I have learned,” Ellis said. “It’s something everyone can relate to — everyone relates to maple syrup.” While Whitted, his sons and his mother-in-law ate breakfast, two maple syrup enthusiasts Mike Smith and IU grad James VanTassel gave a lesson on maple syrup, including its history to its modern uses. During the speech, Rathert clarified points to her grandchildren in whispers.
“Did you see that?” she said. “Do you know how that works?” Rathert’s question was regarding the hydrometer Smith was showing to the crowd. A hydrometer is a small instrument that measures the sugar content during the syrupmaking process. The speech lasted a little over an hour before the family was able to witness their first tree-tapping by VanTassel. He drilled a hole in a tree located next to Creekside Retreat and put in the tap — water dribbled out within seconds.
“I’m an environmental scientist, so the science aspect intrigued me, and then when I made it, everyone kinda’ raved about it,” VanTassel said. Rathert and Brian Whitted assisted the children in putting their buckets in the back of the trunk before they climbed into the car to begin their search for the perfect maple tree. A tree wrapped with yarn came into view from the family’s car window. Trees were wrapped to indicate they had been previously drilled, so participants may insert their taps. At the sight of the multicolored wool, Jacob called attention to the tree he wished to tap. “Oh, there’s one, there’s one right there,” he said. “Right there, right there. Back up a little bit, back up, back up, back up.” The family finally found a spot to leave their car. They went on foot to the maple tree. After the sap began dripping into the bucket, they returned for their bottle of maple syrup. Their collected sap will contribute to the 40 gallons of sap required to create one gallon of syrup.
Steve Volan has owned indiana.com since 1995, but for years didn’t have the resources or knowledge to do anything with the domain space, so it remained empty. However, after attending a startup weekend in Bloomington in 2008, Volan was motivated to so something with indiana.com. It was then that the Geodomain Hackathon was born. A hackathon is an intense collaboration between computers programmers, graphic designers and others working in technology to solve real world problems. The Geodomain Hackathon that took place over the weekend at the Thomas Gallery on the square was a three-day event organized by Volan, who is a city council and IU faculty member. The hackathon started Friday at 5:30 p.m. The team worked about 35 hours over the three day period. The goal of the hackathon is to offer scaleable tools for geodomain owners to showcase the individual character their state or city describes, Volan said. There’s a lot that has to come together with a project that encompasses so much, Volan said. The team could have just made a tourism site on Wordpress, but that’s not enough. He said the hackathon team wants to serve people who already live in Indiana as well as tourists. “We want to create a framework for all of the things that should be at indiana.com,” Volan said. “We want to make the place better.” Most state websites are generic, Volan said. For example, arizona. com is mostly tourism, city names and no original content. Volan organized the hackathon to take action and build indiana.com to be something special, he said. One of his main goals with the geodomain is to have original content. He wants the website to include not only information about Indiana tourism but also how to start a business in the state. “We want to show people that we care enough
“We want to show people that we care enough about Indiana to create original content. This is the first hackathon with real tangible results.” Steve Volan, city council and IU faculty member
about Indiana to create original content,” Volan said. “This is the first hackathon with real tangible results.” The team has started reaching out to local businesses about buying ad space on the website. The hackathon was mainly advertised through social media and word of mouth, Volan said. The team now has 20 members involved. Members can vary from IU students in their 20s to local Bloomington residents in their 60s. Food from restaurants around the square, such as The Owlery, Grazie and Btown Diner, as well as a masseuse were brought in to keep team members motivated. Lesli Sorensen, who graduated from the Maurer School of Law ten years ago, traveled from Phoenix, Arizona, to be involved with the Geodomain Hackathon. Sorensen worked with Volan before on a different business and said she wanted to work with him again. “We’re striving towards this community goal,” Sorensen said. “There are lots of interesting conversations taking place. We’ve made great contacts and friendships.” What makes this hackathon different from others is everyone is working together towards one common goal, rather than breaking up into teams and competing against one another, Volan said. Wes Wagner, a sophomore at IU studying entrepreneurship and international business, said he has enjoyed working with like-minded individuals through the Geodomain Hackathon. “It’s a very close knit community I’d say,” Wagner said. “A lot of the people who are in it are very passionate go-getters who take initiative.” The final version of indiana.com will be available by March 1.

Blake Pieroni leads IU to 2nd place finish in Big Ten Championships By Hailey Hernandez hmhernan@iu.edu | @hmhernandez10
WEST LAFAYETTE, IND. – Sophomore Blake Pieroni walked along the pool deck at the Boilermaker Aquatic Center to the sound of “The Imperial March,” Darth Vader’s theme song from Star Wars. Going into his events, Pieroni said he didn’t have specific goals for his performance. He just wanted to go in and win as much as possible. Every person IU brought to the meet managed to score at one point, IU Coach Ray Looze said. But in the end, a well-rounded Michigan scored 1,475.5 points to top IU’s 1,306 points, which gave the Hoosiers their fourth second-place finish at Big Ten Championships in six seasons. Seeded as the No. 1 swimmer in the 100 freestyle, Pieroni stepped up onto the starting blocks. He looked to his right and saw two of his teammates and toughest competitors, junior Anze Tavcar and sophomore Ali Khalafalla, set to swim in the other lanes. He looked to his left and saw his team and coaches along the sidelines. His mother yelled for her son from in the stands. “He simply loves to race,” Looze said. “He’s a cold-blooded competitor. Anyone can tell by looking at his body language he has a level of confidence about him saying he is going to be hard to beat.” As Pieroni lifted his head out
of the water, he looked up at the scoreboard to see he won gold for his fifth medal of the Big Tens. He also saw he set another school record with his time of 42.27 to give IU its first win in the event since 1996. Pieroni has dominated in the freestyle all year, but IU has more depth than just Pieroni. Tavcar and Khalafalla rounded out the top three in the event. Both Pieroni and Looze said they consider the Hoosiers’ sweep of the 100 free to be the biggest highlight of the four-day meet. “Looking up at that board to see not only I won, but IU took first, second and third, that was the most exciting part,” Pieroni said. “On the podium having those guys standing next to me up there was almost surreal.” The meet finished closer than anyone probably would have expected, Looze said. He credits his team of “studs” for proving they are a true championship squad. Other podium performances from the Hoosiers came with a gold medal in the 200 freestyle relay with Khalafalla, Pieroni, Tavcar and sophomore Oliver Patrouch. IU set a school and pool record with a time of 1:16.93. Pieroni also won the gold medal in the 200 free with yet another school record time of 1:32.33. IU’s last win in the event dated back to 1985. Whether they lack in power or muscle, normally freshmen have a hard time coming in and contributing right away, Looze said. That hasn’t been the case for freshmen Ian Finnerty and Vini

Lanza. Lanza finished second with an IU record time of 45.64 in the 100 butterfly. Lanza was awarded bronze in the 200 fly with another school record of 1:42.38. The 100 breaststroke saw another gold medal race from Finnerty with a time of 51.75 for a new pool record. In addition, Finnerty was named Big Ten Rookie of the Year. “It went a lot better than I thought it would. This whole season has,” Finnerty said. “I hoped either Vini or myself would get the rookie award so I felt really lucky and honored. That was really cool.” In the final event, the Hoosiers managed to break another relay record in the 400 free. Tavcar, Khalafalla, Finnerty and Pieroni sent the Hoosiers off on a high note and swam for a gold medal, school and pool record time of 2:50.51. Overall, Looze said he was more than pleased with the results of his team and coaching staff. “Preparing at a high level all season allowed us to really come out and perform strong,” Looze said. “To go out there and set so many school records and win that many relays was the best performance we’ve had at Big Tens in a long time.”

IU not satisfied at Big Tens By Seth Tow stow@umail.iu.edu @Ready_Seth_Go_
Two Hoosiers won Big Ten titles at the Big Ten Championships last weekend, but IU Coach Ron Helmer said he wanted more. That’s because even with the individual titles, the men’s team finished seventh and the women’s team finished 10th. Although many Hoosiers scored points, only seven athletes had top three finishes. Helmer cited some bad luck, including a bizarre collision in the women’s mile that tripped IU senior Brianna Johnson and sophomore Brenna Calder. He said they were both running well enough to score points, but the collision caused them to finish ninth and 10th respectively. “We’re not scoring enough points on the women’s side right now — on either side, but particularly the women’s side — to be able to absorb that without it really affecting us,” Helmer said. “Those
points there definitely would’ve made things look more like we had expected them to.” Sophomore Daniel Kuhn won the conference title in the 600 meter. His 1:16.02 time broke his own school record and is fourth in NCAA history. Kuhn’s season was already historic, as he set the school record in the 800 meter twice. Entering the year, his goal was to make the podium at Big Tens, he said. But as the season played out, he shifted his attention toward becoming a champion. “It definitely took a while to soak in,” Kuhn said. “It was just so surreal. Helmer just said congratulations and shook my hand with a big smile on his face. That says a lot coming from Coach Helmer, when he’s a man of few words and says something like that.” The other champion was senior Sydney Clute in the pole vault. Clute also set a new school record when she reached 4.35 meters. Clute moved up into a tie for 10th in the country, so she’ll qualify for the NCAA Indoor Champion-
ships for the first time in her career. Clute said winning the conference title was bittersweet since it’s her final indoor season, but she’s focused and excited for nationals. “We get a weekend off here, so that’s really nice to have a really solid week of practice and get in a couple more jump days to work on a couple more things before nationals,” Clute said. Junior Nakel McClinton finished third in the weight throw. She’s currently 15th in the country, which would qualify her for nationals. Senior Dylan Anderson earned second place in the heptathlon. He finished with 5,663 points, third in school history. His performance kept him in qualifying position at 16th in the country. Kuhn is 19th in the country in the 800. However, if athletes ahead of him are scratched, he’d qualify for nationals. Helmer acknowledged Kuhn could’ve lowered his time into qualifying range if he ran the 800 instead of the 600 at Big Tens. But
Helmer said he thought it was worth it for Kuhn to become a conference champion. The women’s distance medley relay team finished fourth with a time of 11:24.59, ninth in school history. Junior Matt Schwartzer took fourth in the 5000 meter in 14:06.14, also ninth in school history. Junior Jason Crist finished third in the 3000 meter, and senior Rorey Hunter finished second in the mile. Helmer’s biggest uncertainty before Big Tens was how the freshmen would handle the bigger stage. He said he was happy with their performances. Willie Morrison finished seventh in the shot put, Treyton Harris took seventh in the long jump, and Eric Bethea finished third in the triple jump. For the women, no points were scored by freshmen in individual events. But Helmer said he was pleased with Harris in the 800 meter and her twin Haley in the mile. He also said Riley Egbula and Taylor Williams ran well in the 4x400 relay.
A pair of close losses to No. 16 Texas A&M could have left IU demoralized and uninspired at the Texas A&M Invitational this weekend, but wins in their other three games showed the team’s resilience. Yet another tournament featuring strong pitching and timely hitting has the Hoosiers optimistic with about a quarter of their regular season schedule completed. IU Coach Michelle Gardner said the losses to A&M, by a final of 4-0 Friday night and 4-2 Saturday night, were disappointing but promising. “We were in both of those games — we were really competing well,” Gardner said. “We had some opportunities, but we just didn’t quite get it done either night.” The Hoosiers did get the job done against their other opponents, however. IU won its first game 3-0 Friday afternoon against University of Texas-El Paso and beat Texas A&M-Corpus Christi 6-2 Saturday afternoon. A second win against UTEP by a final of 5-4 Sunday morning gave the Hoosiers a 3-2 tournament record and 8-6 mark for the season. For the second weekend in a row, a freshman pitcher started for IU. Last week Josie Wood picked up Big Ten co-Freshman of the Week honors. This trip, it was Tara Trainer who struck out 24 batters and allowed just four runs on 10 hits in 15.2 innings during the tournament, which led the team to pick up two wins and a loss. Trainer arguably pitched her best in defeat, as she gave up just three runs in 7.2 innings in two games against the vaunted Texas A&M offense. A&M scored at least 10 runs and won via mercy rule in each of their three games of the weekend that weren’t against IU. In the first game against Texas A&M, Trainer started and pitched through 5.1 innings while allowing three runs. Trainer said after she switched some things up in the second matchup, and
she was able to come on in relief for 2.1 scoreless innings as IU mounted a valiant rally that ultimately fell short. “They’re a great hitting team, and obviously I knew they were going to make adjustments for me,” Trainer said. “So I definitely had to make adjustments for them too.” The Hoosier offense, though still not explosive, was sufficient in providing enough support for the young pitchers in their wins. Sophomore transfer Aimilia McDonough led the Hoosiers with six hits in 11 at-bats. Leadoff batter Rebecca Blitz also notched six hits and swiped a total of five bases. Taking advantage of their opportunities has been a key for IU’s season, as they have yet to score more than six runs in a game. Junior second baseman Erin Lehman was the catalyst this weekend and totaled eight RBIs on just five hits, including her first home run of the season. “Being an upperclassman, early on this season I wasn’t setting a great example with my performance,” Lehman said. “But I had a totally different mindset going into this weekend, and hopefully this will get me back on track.” Lehman raised her season batting average to .273 with the strong showing in Texas. One of her biggest hits from the weekend was an RBI single in the two-run Hoosier sixth inning against A&M on Saturday. The runs snapped a 31-inning scoreless streak by Aggie pitchers. IU now has three narrow defeats against ranked teams this season, with the first being a 7-6 loss to No. 21 California. Though coaches and players alike have said they can take good things away from close losses to ranked teams, the Hoosiers know they will soon need to start winning the tight games to get to the level in which they want to be. “We’ve given the best teams some great games so far,” Lehman said. “It’ll start to come together more as the season goes on. Everyone’s bought in, and we all know we’re good this year.”

Aaron Carter endorses Trump for president
ARTS
EDITORS: JACK EVANS & BROOKE MCAFEE | ARTS@IDSNEWS.COM
Aaron Carter, who came to fame in the early 2000s as a teen pop singer, created a social media buzz Saturday when he endorsed Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on Twitter. “Does America want to have a president
who FOLLOWS or someone who leads?” Carter tweeted in response to a tweet from Trump about self-funding his campaign. “LØVË,” Carter’s next album — his first since 2002 — is set to come out later in 2016.
El Ten Eleven mixes complexity, pop structure By James Freeborn jrfreebo@indiana.edu | @J_Freeborn
Kristian Dunn said he has never really enjoyed or listened to post-rock music. He just happens to play it. At least, that’s how many people classify his band, he said. “I’m confused as to why people think that’s what we are,” he said. Dunn and drummer Tim Fogarty make up the Los Angeles drum and bass duo El Ten Eleven, who will perform Tuesday at the Bishop Bar. In fact, Dunn said he thinks of his songs more as pop music, with verses, a chorus and a bridge. El Ten Eleven may not be top 40 radio material, but the structure is the same. The band has thrived for 15 years playing nothing but instrumental music. Dunn said they’ve never added vocals, partly because they’ve never felt the need, and partly because neither he nor Fogarty can sing. “The greatest music of all time is instrumental music, you know, classical music,” Dunn said. He’s always been a fan of the way classical music involves so many melodic complexities, he said.
“I really don’t like music that’s cliché,” he said. “Predictable music just bores me.” Dunn said he’s always on the lookout for innovators in modern music but rarely finds them, which is why he and Fogarty try to make fresh music without making something completely foreign to listeners. “We’re excited by stuff that’s kind of forward-looking, not backward-looking,” he said. El Ten Eleven will add lyrics for the first time when they release an upcoming series of EPs featuring guest vocalists, he said. The project was more of a coincidence than a calculated choice, but he said he’s looking forward to seeing what the collaborations bring. “We’re kind of excited to have each others’ fans hopefully coming to the table,” he said. Though El Ten Eleven is only two musicians, Dunn and Fogerty use lots of effects to create a full sound. Dunn said they use both electric and acoustic drums, looping pedals and even a doubleneck guitar. The guitar features one sixstringed neck and one fourstringed neck.

California based post rock band El Ten Eleven will play at The Bishop on Tuesday.
He said he bought it on Ebay after growing weary of constantly unplugging his bass to plug in his guitar and vice versa. The doubleneck has since become an attraction for audiences, he said. “I didn’t mean for this to happen, but I kind of became
known as the doubleneck guy,” he said. Dunn said he doesn’t mind that some people come to his shows just to see the novelty of effects taking place in real time. The band prides itself on not using a laptop or pre-made tracks. “I think what we do is re-
ally honest,” he said. Still, he said he loves meeting people who come for the music without being aware of all the musicianship that goes into it. “One of my favorite compliments I get when we’re on a tour is when someone comes up after the show and tells me

Dance company to present 18th annual workshop From IDS reports
The IU African American Dance Company will present its 18th Annual Dance Workshop on March 4 and 5. Guest artists who specialize in dance and music of the African diaspora will be instructors at the workshop. Dance styles include West Indian, Afro-Cuban traditional and popular, African styles and contemporary modern dance. This year, the workshop will offer a few new classes, including a drum master class and a class about the West African dance called bantaba. The dance company is
unique to the University and to the Midwest, said Hannah Crane, communications specialist for the African Americans Arts Institute. “It’s storytelling through dance,” Crane said. “It’s a great treasure of the community.” The workshops are open to the public and all ages. 60 scholarship students from middle schools and high schools around the Midwest will also attend the workshop, which Crane said will give them a chance to understand the opportunities offered at IU. “It’s a really great opportunity and event for anyone,” Crane said. The event will conclude
with the 18th Annual Dance Showcase at 7 p.m. March 5 in the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center Grand Hall, where choreographic workshop participants are invited to perform the dances they learned. It’s “a vital part of the African American Arts Institute and its great traditions and influence here at IU-Bloomington,” according to the AADC press release. The mission is to expose people to dance using the perspectives of both African American culture and the African diaspora. “The dance workshop will give anyone a great opportunity to learn various dance forms and techniques that are not
Actor-producer Fawzia Mirza to perform solo play From IDS reports
Actor, producer and writer Fawzia Mirza will perform her solo play “Me, My Mom & Sharmila” on Thursday in the Mathers Museum of World Cultures. Mirza is known for her web series “Kam Kardashian” and ”Brown Girl Problems” and her short films “The First Session” and “Reclaiming Pakistan.” The play explores “intersecting identity, family and growing up South Asian and queer in today’s world,” according to the Kiran C. Dhar India Studies Program press release. The show is about a girl’s journey of self-discovery from her childhood as a Pakistani Muslim in Canada to her life as an actress in Chicago. It also features her struggle
to connect with her mother and her love for Bollywood movie star Sharmila Tagore, according to the release. The show combines personal anecdotes, pop culture and South Asian history. “I love to use performance, personal storytelling and comedy to break down stereotypes across a multiplicity of identities: race, religion, sexual orientation and gender and defy the concept of the ‘model minority’ often portrayed in the mainstream,” Mirza said on her website. The South Asian International Performing Arts Festival said the play is “a show about family and finding yourself.” Mirza was named the “rising star” of Chicago’s indie filmmaking scene by WBEZ Chicago and one of the top 10 writers of indie series by In-

Hoosiers swept during weekend in California batter of the sixth inning but was then tagged for four runs in the bottom of the seventh to give Fullerton a five run lead and ultimately the victory. In game two senior starting pitcher Evan Bell tossed seven innings on the hill while striking out six and allowing just one run on two hits. Bell’s only hiccup of the night was allowing a solo home run in the second inning, which let Fullerton snag an early lead. Junior reliever Jake Kelzer entered the game in the eighth inning for the potential six-out save. Kelzer’s outing was longer than expected as he was stretched out to five innings after Fullerton tied the game on two errors committed by IU on a stolen base attempt. Sophomore reliever B.J. Sabol replaced Kelzer in the 13th inning, but a rough 14th

IU hoped to bounce back after a disappointing opening weekend as they headed west to face Cal State Fullerton. Instead, it only got worse for the Hoosiers. A three game sweep by the Titans extended the Hoosiers’ losing streak to five games. The Hoosiers have just one win this season. The bats still haven’t appeared for IU since its 14run outbreak against Middle Tennessee State in the first game of the season. On the hill, the Hoosier starting pitchers have given the team chances to win. Senior starting pitcher Kyle Hart allowed four runs, two earned, in 5.2 innings of work Friday before exiting the game trailing by one run. Junior relief pitcher Thomas Belcher struck out the last
inning ended with a basesloaded hit by pitch to give the Titans the victory. During the series finale senior pitcher Caleb Baragar struck out eight but allowed five runs through 5.2 innings. Three errors in the field were costly for IU and led to three unearned runs. IU Coach Chris Lemonis shook up the lineup in game two of the series to see if he could gain production from his offense. Senior Brian Wilhite moved from third base to shortstop to replace sophomore Isaiah Pasteur. Wilhite made a few nice defensive plays, including a diving grab to start a double play in the fourth inning. Wilhite also drove in the only two runs for IU on a double to center field to give the Hoosiers the lead. Sophomore outfielder Logan Sowers exited the game after his second at-bat with an appar-

ent wrist injury and did not play Sunday. Sophomore outfielder Laren Eustace started in
place of Sowers in right field Sunday and hit his first home run as a Hoosier in the third inning. Six unanswered runs
from the Titans put the game away, however, with the Hoosiers falling victim to a three game sweep.
