Guard leaving team via transfer

IDS INDIANA DAILY STUDENT | IDSNEWS.COM

TWO-WAY STREET

From IDS reports

Sophomore guard Jess Walter will be transferring from IU, the 6-foot guard from Midland, Michigan, announced via Twitter on Tuesday evening.

Walter’s announcement comes at the conclusion of the 2015-16 season. She appeared in 32 of 33 games, starting in five after battling back from a preseason concussion. Walter scored just 2.8 points in 16.4 minutes per game.

“Hoosier Nation,” Walter tweeted.

“I have built some life-long bonds and have met some incredible people. I am very proud of the growth of this team and will continue to wish the rest of my teammates the utmost success. However, after much consideration and prayer, I have decided to continue my career elsewhere.”

She has not yet made a decision as to where she will be transferring.

Next season, Walter would have found herself battling for playing time. Lyndsay Leikem is the only graduating player on this year’s team.

IU Coach Teri Moren will return first-team All-Big Ten sophomore guard Tyra Buss, junior guard Alexis Gassion and junior guard Tyshee Towner in the backcourt, among others.

The Hoosiers will welcome a pair of freshman guards next season as part of their four-member 2016 recruiting class. Moren signed 5-foot-9 Texas guard Ria Gulley, who projects as either a point guard or 2-guard.

Pence signs off on ISTEP dismissal

By Anne Halliwell ahalliwe@indiana.edu | @Anne_Halliwell

Gov. Mike Pence signed a bill Tuesday that will eliminate ISTEP by mid-2017.

The standardized test, which measures math skills, reading and writing in third- through eighth-grade students, will be phased out by July 1 of that year, according to a press release from the Governor’s Office.

HEA 1395 also establishes a 23-member panel which will look at alternatives to ISTEP. According to the bill, this panel will look into reducing testing time and costs and increasing test transparency and fairness to students, teachers and schools.

Tim Pritchett, the public relations and information officer for the Monroe County school system, said in an email that faster grading could apprise schools of their strengths and weaknesses within the same class year.

“I think our hopes match many other corporations wanting to find an assessment to inform our teachers’ instruction,” Pritchett said. “A formative assessment with a quick turnaround for results could monitor progress and inform instruction for a current year classroom teacher rather than a summative assessment like the current ISTEP that does not show results until the following year.”

The panel will include the superintendent of public instruction, as well as Senate and House education committee chairs and members of state school systems who have yet to be appointed to the panel, according to the Indiana Senate Committee on Education and Career Development’s recommendations.

Pence’s office and the State Board of Education did not respond to requests for more information SEE ISTEP, PAGE 8

Human actors in the University Players’ production of ‘Avenue Q’ have bonded with the real stars of the show: the puppets

he puppets live in two giant black boxes. When the boxes are opened, they peer out from their plastic coverings from where they lie side by side.

They can’t touch the ground, so a chair is flipped upside down and one puppet is impaled on each leg, four to a chair. The position makes their necks eerily long, with their mouths hanging open and eyes

staring at the ceiling.

Fifteen puppets, cast members of University Players’ production of “Avenue Q,” are unwrapped and dressed at rehearsal. The process takes about half an hour.

Max Fowler, the human actor who works with lead puppet Princeton, crouches to look one of the Princeton puppets in the eye.

Puppets with the most stage time have duplicates to ease costume changes from scene to scene.

They’re essentially identical, but

because each puppet is handmade, they have their quirks.

“This one’s eyes are not right,” Fowler says. He looks at Princeton’s clone hanging next to him. “That one’s fine, but this one ... he’s not right.”

Fowler thinks Princeton is ugly, but he sees him as his comrade, his high-maintenance best friend.

He feels close to the character, he said. Like Princeton, he’s excited

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Johnson’s and Morgan’s status undetermined

By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu | @MichaelHughes94

The moment IU Coach Tom Crean became most worried during IU’s 73-67 win against Kentucky on Saturday in the NCAA Tournament wasn’t when sophomore guard Robert Johnson re-injured his ankle in the first half.

He was concerned with how the Hoosiers were going to handle the pressure of the Wildcats, but this didn’t start when he realized Johnson was out for the rest of the game.

Crean said he became concerned when freshman forward Juwan Morgan’s shoulder popped out of its socket again in the second half, because now IU was without a primary ball-handler beside senior guard Yogi Ferrell.

“Juwan can handle that, and then we lost him,” Crean said.

“That was the time we got a little nervous because he does so many things for us.”

Against North Carolina in the Sweet 16 on Friday in Philadelphia, IU will face a similar test. Like the Wildcats, the Tar Heels pressure the ball defensively.

The status of both Johnson and Morgan is still undecided for the game. Morgan even required

stitches to his head for another injury he suffered in practice Tuesday.

“Robert is iffy so we’re just going to have to see,” Crean said.

“Juwan is getting better, but he got some stitches to his head today in practice so he was out there. That poor guy. We just have to wait and see how it goes.”

Bryant staying out of foul trouble In each of IU’s two NCAA Tournament games, freshman center Thomas Bryant picked up his second foul three minutes into the game. This means he’s had to spend the majority of the first half of both games on the bench.

Bryant still managed to score in double figures in both games, even leading IU with 19 points against Kentucky.

But against North Carolina, it’s important Bryant stay out of foul trouble because of how skilled the Tar Heels are down low, Crean said.

“These guys are very quick in the post,” Crean said. “They’re quick with their moves to the middle and they’re quick with their baseline moves, so you have to do your work early.”

Crean also said both of Bry-

IUB top-ranked in Peace Corps

By Laurel Demkovich lfdemkov@indiana.edu @laureldemkovich

When she was growing up, Lauren Aylward would spin the globe her mother bought her. She would pick a new country and learn about it.

By the time IU senior Aylward was a junior in high school, she knew she was going to join the Peace Corps.

Preparing to travel to Cambodia in July, Aylward will join the numerous other IU alumni who join the Peace Corps.

Moving up 13 positions, IU-Bloomington was ranked No. 7 in the Peace Corps’ list of top volunteer-producing universities nationwide for 2015.

This year, 47 Peace Corps volunteers are IU-Bloomington alumni. This is up from 36 volunteers last year.

Laura Fonseca, senior associate director of employer relations, is an IU alumna who served in the Peace Corps and was a recruiter.

Fonseca said IU really emphasizes the creation of global citizens. Through the numerous languages offered and the opportunities to learn from global scholars, students can learn about the world.

“It’s a large community of people that understand our responsibility as individuals to make a better world,” Fonseca said.

Since the inception of the Peace Corps, 1,635 IU alumni have served as volunteers, according to an IU press release.

Thomas Pearson, an IU alumnus, is currently in his last three months serving as a Peace Corps volunteer in Nicaragua. Pearson said the

strong liberal arts education IU offers might play a large role in the amount of volunteers IU produces.

“It pushes people to think about the world,” Pearson said. “It gets people thinking about global issues through a lot of those classes.”

Pearson said those with a liberal arts background tend to be the best volunteers.

“It’s important to have technical skills, but the most important thing is being flexible,” Pearson said.

Pearson always had the Peace Corps in the back of his mind. Majoring in economics and mathematics, Pearson knew he wanted to go into development. However, most development jobs required at least two years of experience.

It seemed like the best place to start getting experience was the Peace Corps, Pearson said.

Pearson never thought he would actually do it, but once

his senior year came around, he knew it was the right time.

With his two years almost over, Pearson said the most important takeaway is the professional skills he’s gained.

These skills include speaking to large groups and working in a political environment.

“That’s something I underestimated,” Pearson said.

“I didn’t realize how much I would develop professionally.”

At the time Pearson joined, his recruiter was Fonseca.

Fonseca said she always knew she would do the Peace Corps. For her, the perfect time was after she finished graduate school at the University of Florida.

Fonseca and her husband then joined and traveled to Ukraine to work as English education volunteers. Fonseca used her own experience to help teachers in Ukraine learn to collaborate with each other.

Once she finished her

two years, Fonseca decided to become a recruiter at IUBloomington. Fonseca said she wasn’t done learning.

Now Fonseca works for IU’s Arts and Sciences Career Services.

After working for four years as a recruiter, Fonseca got to know students, faculty, staff and how the University works. Because of that experience, she said taking a job as a career advisor was the next natural step.

Currently co-teaching an English classroom in Thailand, Jenny Wininger said IU deepened her understanding of how to help not only at a local level, but also on a global scale.

Wininger said her experiences at IU helped her understand everyone has something to contribute.

“We can all grow as we learn from one another,” Wininger said. “Together anything is attainable.”

IU researchers find solution to brewing problem From IDS reports

IU researchers have found what could be a solution to “terminal acid shock” in craft brewing.

The researchers used beer developed by Upland Brewing Co. in an experiment, which found conditions, such as high acidity, can inhibit the successful production of brewing, according to an IU press release.

Such conditions threaten yeast used in the production of sour beers, according to the release.

The research, appearing in the journal Food Microbiology, proposed incubation as a possible method to overcome terminal acid shock, which occurs after fermentation and before bottling, when extra yeast is added to beer to create carbonation.

Matthew Bochman, a lead author of the research paper, is a craft brewing consultant and an assistant professor in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry.

Bochman is also the recipient of a $13,000 grant from the Johnson Center for Innovation and Translational Research at IU. He said in the release the study shows pre-adapting yeast can ensure proper

bottle conditioning of sour beers.

“Simply using untreated dry yeast or yeast rehydrated in water alone should be used with caution in the production of ‘extreme beers’ such as sours,” Bochman said in the release.

Terminal acid shock does not typically affect large commercial breweries that use a forced carbonation method.

Upland Brewing had previously attempted to brew its own sour beer called “Cauldron,” which failed two consecutive years because of bottling complications, according to the release.

In the most recent study, IU researchers exposed six strains of brewer’s yeast to organic acids produced by bacteria in the brewing process to observe the reactions of each pairing.

The researchers found beer-yeast and Champagneyeast strains were least affected by changes in acidity, according to the release.

“Our analysis revealed that terminal acid shock was not completely lethal to the yeast’s cells, although nearly a third of the yeast died in some experiments,” Bochman said in the release. “The acid did, however, significantly inhibit the metabolism of the surviv-

ing yeast.”

This slowed metabolism is responsible for the failure of a microbial release of carbon dioxide during the bottling process, which is how carbonation is created in beer.

However, the researchers’ observations that nearly two thirds of the study’s yeast survived led to finding the microorganism could be revived through incubation.

“Normally breweries simply re-hydrate dry yeast with water and sugar prior to bottling, but sours are too harsh,” Bochman said in the release.

He added exposing yeast to a mixture of the nutrition-

ally dense substance YPD and uncarbonated beer a day before bottling could strengthen yeast microbes enough to survive an environment of high acidity.

As sour beers grow in popularity, the bottling method could become increasingly important, Bochman said in the release.

“The results of his research helped remedy a real technical dilemma in bottle conditioning of our sour beers,” said Caleb Staton, director of sour operations at Upland Brewing.

Serve IT, a student-based technological resources clinic, is celebrating its fifth anniversary with networking sessions, presentations and a panel discussion.

Technology for Social Good, which will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. March 31 in Memorial Stadium, will be led by IU first lady Laurie Burns McRobbie and the School of Informatics and Computing.

The organization recruits IU students with backgrounds in technology to assist nonprofit organizations in projects ranging from creating websites to managing databases . Students are placed in specialized groups and matched with organizations before developing a strategic plan.

“Serve IT brings IU closer to the Bloomington community,” sophomore Karina Abramowski said. “ Abramowski is an intern on the Development Internal Training Team, where she trains other Serve IT teams to become proficient in various forms of technology, such as JIRA, a bug tracking system for businesses and nonprofits.

During her first semester on Serve IT, Abramowski said she has developed several technical skills to help her in the future, although her accounting major may not be directly technologically related.

She said she has also become a better professional, while working with nonprofit organizations to improve and spend more time on achieving their goals.

IU President Michael McRobbie and SoIC Assistant Dean Maureen Biggers

founded Serve IT in 2010.

They said their objective was to create an inclusive technical environment by combining service learning and professional development.

“Serve IT works well for many reasons,” McRobbie said in a press release. “The teams work across semesters, and the entire focus is on what the nonprofit needs, not the requirements of a course. The interns are also required to provide 10 hours of direct service, so they have a stake in the organization they’re serving.”

The organization has served over 45 clients with the help of over 330 interns.

The total amount of services Serve IT has provided in five years is estimated by the clinic to be $282,000, according to the press release.

Sponsors fund the clinic, and applications for both interested sponsors and interns open in the middle of each semester.

Freshman Brooke Foulk said her time as an intern on the Teach IT team has allowed her to help others while preparing her with skills for a career in informatics.

“We go to events and spread awareness on fun things in technology, like coding, especially to younger kids who don’t get the opportunities to learn about them,” Foulk said.

Foulk said her group works with the Monroe County Library, Boys and Girls Club and elementary schools throughout Bloomington to engage and inspire an interest for technology in both students and community members.

“What Serve IT has done for me has shown me a way to use my passion for technology in ways that benefit others,” Foulk said.

IU experts weigh in on Cuba visit From IDS reports

As President Obama continues his visit to Cuba — making him the first sitting president to visit the country in more than 90 years — IU experts have weighed in on the historic significance of the trip and what it could mean for the future of both countries.

Lee Hamilton, a former Indiana congressman and a professor of practice in the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, said Obama’s visit signals a new era.

“Our hope is that the president will speak out for greater freedom, both political and economic freedom in Cuba, and begin to press for change in that country,” Hamilton said in the release.

Gerardo Gonzalez, dean emeritus of the IU School of Education, is a CubanAmerican whose family fled Cuba in 1952. Gonzalez visited Cuba as part of a higher education delegation, and he said he hopes

for a prosperous relationship between the two countries despite understanding the cultural complications.

“I can only hope that through increased contact, better understanding and lots of education, the people of both nations will grow and prosper in a mutually beneficial and peaceful, if yet uncertain, new future,” Gonzalez said in an IU press release.

Hamilton said he hopes the visit can heal some of the damage from the past.

“I’m very pleased that the American public seems to lopsidedly support the new initiatives toward Cuba,” Hamilton said in the press release. “We in the United States have to have confidence that over time as we engage more with the Cuban people politically, diplomatically, economically, that Cuba will move in the right direction. We have to chip away at the distress that has built up over the decades.”

Cheryl Munson, who is involved with the County Council, looks at the Indiana Bicentennial Barn Quilt on Monday at the Monroe County Courthouse. The quilt depicts Indiana's 92 counties and will be auctioned off to support barn preservation in 2017.

Quilt honors Indiana counties

By Cody Thompson Comthomp@indiana.edu @Codymichael3

A hand-knit quilt depicting historic barns from the 92 counties in Indiana is on display in the Monroe County Courthouse until March 26.

The quilt was presented

by Indiana Barn Foundation, Indiana Landmarks and Indiana State Quilt Guild as part of the celebrations of the Indiana bicentennial. This year is a celebration of 200 years of Indiana’s statehood.

The Indiana Barn Foundation accepted small, stitched, square submissions from quilters from all counties of Indiana as part of a Legacy Project endorsed by the Indiana Bicentennial Commission, said Joy William, coordinator of the Indiana Barn Quilt project.

“We decided to do this Bicentennial Legacy

Project to commemorate all the different barns by picking a representative barn from the 92 counties in Indiana,” William said.

This project is one of many Bicentennial Legacy Projects, which are approved by the Bicentennial Legacy Commission. William said there are at least 100 other projects.

Some other projects include a tree of hope, a paper quilt, a monarch garden and an “Along the Wabash” documentary, among many others, according to the Indiana state website.

This is the first time the Indiana Barn Foundation has done a project like this, William said.

After the submissions were chosen, the top of the quilt was constructed before being sent to northern Indiana for Ruby Borkholder, who is Amish, to complete,

William said. Some counties had multiple submissions, which prompted a competition for inclusion in the final project. The Indiana State Quilt Guild picked winners.

The quilt is expected to visit every region of the state, if not every county, William said. The goal is to raise awareness of the foundation, she said.

Williams said the foundation will have a fundraiser in January.

“What we hope will happen is that we could get a donor or a collection of donors to make a significant contribution to the Indiana Barn Foundation endowment,” William said.

The quilt resides in the Monroe County Courthouse, but on Friday it will move to the Hinkle-Garton Farmstead for one day before leaving Monroe County.

The Monroe County

Bicentennial will take place in 2018, while the University will be celebrating its bicentennial in 2020, Monroe County Commissioner Iris Kiesling said.

William marketed the quilt project on social media, primarily Facebook, to seek contributions for the project, she said.

This is the only project the Indiana Barn Foundation is doing for the state bicentennial, William said.

However, she said they do barn tours through the state during the fall and have an annual membership meeting.

“Because of the bicentennial, we have a unique opportunity,” William said.

“Everyone is looking back at the history of Indiana, and since our foundation is specifically around preservation, that was a very good synergy of ideas.”

Republicans fight over local funding

By Lindsay Moore liramoor@indiana.edu @_lindsaymoore

Senate hopeful Rep. Todd Young, R-9th District, has received individual contributions from bookkeepers, homemakers and retirees.

Of these donations, 68 percent of them are from Indiana residents, according to the Federal Election Commission.

This is a point of pride for Young’s campaign.

“Having a large proportion of donors in-state shows that Hoosiers agree (with Young), and it’s a sign he’s earned the trust and support of the same people who will be casting ballots in the race,” campaign manager Trevor Foughty said in an email.

Young is campaigning against fellow Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-3rd District, for Dan Coat’s open seat.

On Monday, Young’s campaign sent an email calling out Stutzman for his Washington, D.C., contributors. A tough blow considering both campaigns rely heavily on Hoosier values.

“How can Hoosiers trust a career politician since age 26 who’s bankrolled by outof-state interests as our next senator?” Young’s campaign said in an email.

The email cited a Howey Politics Indiana article

based on the FEC’s thirdquarter report in October that calculated 61 percent of Stutzman’s total donations came from out-of-state and special interest groups.

“Marlin Stutzman has repeatedly tried to say that others in the race are funded by outside special interests, but the numbers indicate that actually describes his own campaign,” Foughty said in an email. “He fails to live up to the yardstick he’s laid out.”

Stutzman, a fourth generation hoosier farmer, stresses “guts, grits, and God’s grace” in his campaign videos. Similarly, Young’s campaign videos showcase “life in Indiana,” which appreciates “family, value and hard work.”

Despite this both candidates are receiving money from Washington, but just barely.

The FEC reports only 29 individual donations listed under Washington, D.C., for Stutzman and 45 for Young, both of which accumulate to less than 1 percent of the candidates’ individual contributions, according to the FEC’s two-year summary updated Dec. 31, 2015.

However, Stutzman is trailing behind Young in terms of Hoosier donations, with only 20 percent of his individual donations coming from in-state individu-

als, according to December FEC reports.

Both campaigns rely heavily on individual “large” contributors. The Indiana Election Commission defines large contributions as any amount equaling $1,000 or more.

Stutzman’s large individual donors have raised 74.5 percent of his overall funds.

Young’s large contributions add up 80.3 percent of his overall campaign finance, according to FEC reports.

In total, Stutzman is about $1 million behind Young at $1,708,556, according to the FEC report.

Young’s financial success can, in part, be attributed to his political action committee money. He leads both Stutzman and Democratic candidate Baron Hill for most money from business PACs, according to FEC reports.

Finance, insurance and real estate sectors, such as wealth management company UBS Americas and health organization Cigna Corp, collectively contributed $149,500 to make up 86 percent of the PAC contribution for Young’s campaign, according to FEC reports.

In contrast, business PAC money only makes up 68 percent of Stutzman’s contributions, leaving the other 32 percent, or $86,910, to be funded from ideologi-

cal or single-issue groups such as Concerned Women for America and Conservative America Now, according to FEC reports.

Although both candidates are raising and spending well over the average house member, neither campaign shows signs of “dark money,” said Will Tucker, reporter for Center for Responsive Politics.

Dark money, or funding without a required disclosed source or donation limitations, can affect a candidate’s quality of disclosure.

Currently, Young clocks in at 92.8 percent of his funds having full disclosure while only 87.2 percent of Stutzman’s are fully disclosed. This leaves 0.2 percent incomplete and 12.6 percent or $137,704 with no disclosure for Stutzman’s campaign.

Most of this undisclosed money could be attributed to refunds as well, Tucker said.

Voters looking for red flags shouldn’t let hot button issues like “dark money” and “super PACs” cloud their judgment, Tucker said.

“There’s so many different candidates and so many different strategies of people trying to win elections that you can get lost in the buzzwords,” Tucker said

Centerstone, a nonprofit organization, will increase access to quality mental health care and substance abuse treatment to combat high transient populations in southern Indiana.

The Centerstone Connections program will take advantage of a $1.2 million grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.

Monroe County is one of the 10 counties to which the program will reach out. It was selected because it was identified as an area with a higher-than-normal population of homeless people.

“Through this program, Centerstone will be able to give many of our most vulnerable Hoosiers the support they need to break the cycle of homelessness,” said Suzanne Koesel, CEO of Centerstone’s Indiana operations, in a press release.

“This initiative doesn’t just find places for people to live, it addresses the root causes contributing to their homelessness and provides real solutions that enable them to lead healthier and more productive lives.”

The program focuses its efforts on homeless veterans or individuals who experience chronic homelessness, Centerstone Connections manager Brian Meyer said.

When a transient individual is in recovery from addiction, they could relapse, and many programs assisting the homeless have a zero-tolerance policy for substance abuse, thus rejecting the homeless individual from the program, Meyer said.

He said he disagrees with these types of policies and believes the Centerstone Connections program will be successful because it will continue to support individuals even through their struggles.

“It’s a process, and I think that’s what I like most

about it,” Meyer said. “We view it as a journey rather than a black and white system.”

Meyer said the program started taking referrals in October and has already placed 13 transient individuals in permanent housing.

The process will begin with community outreach — identifying candidates for assistance and building a relationship with them, getting the candidate to trust the program.

Trust can often be a huge barrier between homeless and addicted people getting the help they need, Meyer said.

“For some folks, the first big hurdle to cross is just to build that relationship,” Meyer said.

Going out into the community and building relationships rather than asking transient people to come to program workers will be key, Meyer said. Part of the program revolves around this — reducing any possible inconvenience the transient individual might experience so as to encourage them to get the help they need.

For example, Meyer said, the program will assist homeless people in applying for benefits for which they may be eligible — Medicaid, social security disability and subsidized housing.

These programs can often be difficult or confusing to people not well versed in using a computer or not easily able to traverse the city to fill out necessary paperwork.

The program, and Centerstone in general, is important for not only individual transient people, but also the community as a whole, Meyer said. It’s been successful so far, and he said he expects this to continue.

“Anytime you’re dealing with human beings, there’s that unknown factor,” Meyer said. “But I do believe that we’re going to see a degree of success.”

BREAK AWAY FROM THE PACK

Cross-examining Garland WE SAY: We’ll have to trust Obama has chosen wisely on nominating Garland No doubt President Obama made a compromise when he nominated Washington D.C. Circuit Court Judge Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court last Wednesday.

After all, Garland isn’t exactly the shining star most of the nation’s liberals were hoping for.

While he may be in favor of overturning Heller v.

District of Columbia, which upheld that the Second Amendment protects the right of private citizens to bear arms.

Most political analysts are confident he’ll move the court more to the left, Garland still has a record of conservative ideology.

He ruled against Guantanamo Bay detainees by forbidding them from having their cases heard in the United States court system.

In at least 10 cases concerning criminal justice, Garland has disagreed with his liberal colleagues.

In 2010, he ruled in favor

of extending the Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United by allowing corporations to make unlimited donations from their general treasuries to independent political groups.

To his credit, Garland has sided with the Environmental Protection Agency, ruling to protect endangered species, and has protected the rights of workers.

However, Garland’s record hasn’t given us concrete examples of his positions on social issues such as gender equality, reproductive rights and the LGBT community.

Presiding as one of nine judges on the highest court in the U.S., which rules on these issues frequently, would make his relatively unknown position on these issues an enormous factor in the future of our nation.

It seems we’ll have to trust Obama has chosen wisely and nominated a judge with liberal social tendencies.

Only the Senate, though, will tell us if

abandoning radically progressive principles was a mistake or a brilliant political move by the president.

And so far, it’s leaning toward mistake.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told Garland shortly after being nominated the Senate would not consider him as a nominee.

The Republicans in the Senate stuck by their promise to refuse to consider any nominee put forth by the president, despite the media billing Garland as a centrist and a moderate.

At present, the president’s compromise strategy isn’t changing the Senate’s mind, but that could change when the Republicans realize Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton is going to become the next president.

Either of them will nominate someone with radically progressive principles and probably a young woman in an effort to lessen the gender inequality on

the Court.

We expect between the general election in November and the inauguration in January, during what’s called the lame-duck period, the Senate will rush to confirm Garland.

If a Republican wins, the Senate will certainly wait to confirm a nominee from one of their own.

Had the President been able to nominate someone unilaterally, he probably wouldn’t have chosen Garland.

Nominating a 63-yearold centrist doesn’t quite fit the standard Obama established by nominating Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.

This was clearly a nomination done to appease the petulant children in the Senate.

But so far, it hasn’t worked.

And if the Senate maintains their position for the next eight months, Obama’s Supreme Court legacy will be decided by who comes out on top in November.

CRAZY IS MAJORITY RULES

Bringing reality to video games Many adventure-based video games, much like many works in other story-based art forms, take a typified, triumphant narrative arc.

The reason for this seems obvious. Video games are often used to get away from life’s harsh realities while embedding the player inside of a powerful avatar and presenting challenges to be solved with powers he or she possesses.

But, as with any medium of entertainment, the standards within video games have been challenged on a number of occasions.

One challenge specific to video games was recently pointed out in a column in the New York Times opinion section entitled “Games You Can’t Win.” It focused on three games in particular: a recent release called “That Dragon, Cancer” and two older games, “Never Ending Nightmares” and “Dys4ia.”

All three focus on autobiographical subject matter and immerse players in the

psyche and memories of the games’ developers.

“That Dragon, Cancer” deals with the challenges of raising a child with a terminal illness, based on the real experiences of the couple who created it.

“Never Ending Nightmares” is about a man’s experience with mental illness, and “Dys4ia” is about a transgender woman’s struggles with societal acceptance.

In none of these games is the player powerful enough to get through all the troubles with which he or she is confronted, and that’s exactly what distinguishes them from other video games.

The idea behind these games is not to allow the player to solve or win, but to move players to feel a particular way.

This is a valuable contribution to the development of video game design as a creative field.

It’s important for forays like this to take place, because this is how art and entertainment continue to

evolve and grow.

What’s more, this area has yet to be tapped by a popular game franchise.

I also think one of the primary goals of any form of art.

In my opinion this includes video games, should be to create an emotion in the viewer, or in this case the player.

In popular video games, the exploration of potential emotional evocation has thus far been one-dimensional, centering on a victorious storyline with a strong protagonist at its core.

For this reason I think these games are very much a step in the right direction simply because they broaden the domain of subject matter in such a great way.

However, these games in particular are still autobiographical for the most part and tend to be very linear and constrained.

One could, of course, make the argument that this narrow storyline helps to make the games so emotional by making the

player truly realize their helplessness.

While this is true, I still believe it’s be possible to develop games that explore heavier emotional dimensions and interact more heavily with the player.

By creating greater interactivity, preserving the emotional components of these games and venturing away from strict autobiographical content, developers could create an overall playing experience that isn’t so cinematic.

Instead, the player’s actions dictate events more strongly.

This way players will realize their own role in the plot’s development, making the experience all the more internalized and emotionally significant. jcworrel@indiana.edu

The ongoing strife in the Middle East has displaced scores of people seeking religious freedom and basic rights during the last several years.

The issue reached a head recently when millions of Syrian refugees, seeking safety and opportunity in other countries, began fleeing their homeland.

Some act lawfully, and some attempt to enter countries illegally, seeing no better alternative.

The issue of a stricter versus a more lenient immigration policy earned a lot of headlines last year.

Opponents of a stricter policy use a humanitarian rationale to support opening our borders to refugees.

Proponents pointed to the heightened security threats refugees pose.

The Corrections Corporation of America welcomes refugees with open arms — and open pockets.

The CCA and GEO, the two largest privately-owned correction firms in the United States, have spent nearly $25 million on lobbying despite constant assurances to do otherwise. Many of these funds have gone towards influencing politicians to strengthen immigration laws, sending refugees their way and fattening their own coffers in the process.

One would think a strong private prison industry would encourage higher incarceration rates, especially given the strength of the lobby, which spent $1 million in 2015, and that is exactly the case.

Preying on refugees and victims of war crimes is beyond petty and is yet another reason our prison industry is in need of a complete overhaul.

It is worth pointing out one of the beneficiaries of the private prison lobby was none other than former presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio.

During his time as a Florida congressman, the Marco Rubio for U.S. Senate PAC received $40,000 in contributions. Rubio’s office helped push through a $110 million contract for

GEO Group, CCA’s largest competitor.

It’s a well-known fact the U.S. incarcerates people at a much higher rate than other countries. According to the American Civil Liberties Union, the U.S. houses 20 percent of the world’s prisoners despite being home to only 5 percent of the global population.

Also, huge numbers of detainees are held in privatelyowned facilities.

The CCA owns and operates one of these facilities in Dilley, Texas. It is referred to as a “family residential center.”

One of the residents, Central American migrant Yancy Mariela Mejia Guerra, disagrees.

“It’s a prison for us and a prison for our children,” she said.

Because they are privately owned, many firms and facilities are able to worm around federal prison standards, and they do quite often.

In 2014, Judge Dolly Gee denounced the Department of Homeland Security’s efforts to sidestep the Flores agreement, a 1997 agreement that forbade the unlawful detention of children and mothers.

Flores requires children be placed in “non-secure facility licensed by a child welfare entity.”

This, of course, is no issue.

The Department of Family and Protective Services was able to essentially redefine these “residential centers” as suitable childcare centers.

Consider yourself lucky your daycare didn’t confine you to a cell block.

As long as the federal government is awarding contracts to private firms, there is a strong incentive to arrest and detain people. In the meantime, firms like CCA and GEO will be happy to cash in on the vulnerable. dkilcull@indiana.edu

A SLICE OF SOMETHING REAL

Morality of museums Art museums often seem like neutral spaces free from politics and social issues.

Art museums put pretty pictures, sculptures and videos on display and offer affordable admission for all types of people.

The engaging displays art museums offer can often blind people to the reality of the museum itself.

The art museum is an institution. And just like any other institution, art museums are politically engaged and struggle with keeping in line with morality and ethics.

Museums don’t exist in a vacuum and are not devoid of politics.

They are living institutions that respond to society and shape the way art is viewed by society.

The major art museums of the day such as the Louvre, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim have sponsorship ties to immoral businesses and private donors, making the museums’ politics even more questionable.

An example of ethically questionable museum sponsor ties can be found at the Louvre.

Paris’ most famous museum accepts funding from two of the world’s largest oil companies: Total and Eni. The Guggenheim and Louvre are also building franchises in Abu Dhabi by employing migrant workers

who are put under appalling working conditions.

The Metropolitan Museum in New York City boasts David Koch, of the infamous business duo, the Koch brothers as a trustee.

In 2014 Koch gave the museum $65 million to build up the Fifth Avenue façade of the building and create the “David H. Koch” plaza. Not only does the Metropolitan Museum accept money from Koch, according to Raw Story, they advertise their ties to Koch as positive.

The Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City opened a branch in 1983 that was paid and named for the Philip Morris Tobacco Company, which was notorious for repeatedly denying tobacco can cause lung cancer.

For those who may not be convinced of the political nature of accepting funding from large corporations or private business donors, let me break it down.

When institutions accept funding from morally corrupt businesses or people, those museums are inherently condoning such behaviors and business practices.

Also, once the museums SEE MUSEUMS, PAGE 5

accept the money, they are monetarily bound to portraying these businesses in a good light.

Not only is accepting money from big business a sign of solidarity, it’s also a giant advertisement for corporations and private donors.

The oil companies Total and Eni, the Philip Morris Tobacco Company and David Koch look more upstanding and supportive of the arts and less morally dubious.

Museums are social institutions and should not accept funding from ethically questionable businesses or participate in morally suspect capitalistic enterprises.

Big business already con-

trols global relations. Capitalism should not be bankrolling our culture.

Museums should not be capitalist business enterprises with franchises.

The more money museums accept from big business, the more like a big business, these museums become and the more monetized our culture becomes.

The only way to prevent this is for museums to research the businesses and people they accept funding from as well as not expanding their institutions through franchises.

The money from big business may allow museums to collect more art objects, but the cost is measured in more than just money. rcm2@indiana.edu @RachelCMiller1

WEEKLY WISDOM

Wrestling with the First Amendment It sounds like a particularly heinous episode of a late night cartoon.

The wife of Bubba the Love Sponge, his legal name, had sex with Bubba’s friend Hulk Hogan.

Unfortunately for those that prefer reality not resemble South Park, all of this in fact did occur. And a video exists, which found its way onto Gawker’s website.

Hogan alleges the posting of the video violates his privacy. He also asserts he had no knowledge he was being recorded.

Gawker, on the other hand, claims that this video is newsworthy and that the public had an interest in seeing it, partly due to the fact that Hogan routinely discusses his sex life in public.

This case is noteworthy in that it provides a nice litmus test for how far the First Amendment may be stretched when publishing embarrassing facts about public figures.

The standard rule for invasion of privacy suits is the information must be highly offensive to the reasonable person and of no legitimate public interest.

It would be wise to err on the side of caution when issues of newsworthiness are brought up.

Differential treatment should be given to the media and publishers to determine what is worthy of their ink.

To do otherwise would be to invite potential abuse that far outweighs the harm that may come to individuals such as Hogan.

It is true our democracy would continue to function if no one had ever seen Hulk Hogan in the act. However, Hogan is a celebrity and has invited public scrutiny into his life.

Legal principles must be defined by general rules so

The echoes of Benghazi Soon after night fell over Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11, 2012, the city’s streets flickered with muzzle flashes and explosions.

In a two-part battle, hundreds of militants stormed and set fire to the main United States diplomatic compound before later bombarding the CIA annex down the road. Four Americans died, including the first U.S. ambassador to be murdered in three decades.

The Benghazi tragedy isn’t exactly a success story.

Somebody should tell Hillary Clinton, who led the State Department at the time of the attack. Clinton recently appeared on MSNBC and praised U.S. involvement in Libya, claiming the U.S. “didn’t lose a single person” in the North African country.

That is a false statement.

Clinton’s backers will argue she was referring only to deaths resulting from U.S. support of the Libyan Revolution in 2011. Even in that

context, her words still drip with deceit. After all, the Libyan Revolution ignited the rise of the militant groups that participated in the Benghazi assault, such as Ansar al-Sharia.

Clinton shouldn’t even speak glowingly of Libya as a whole. ISIS operates along a strip of the country’s coastline that’s about as wide as Indiana.

Unfortunately, I doubt anything will stop Clinton from proudly pointing at Libya as if it’s some sort of trophy for her successes.

This trophy looks more like a powder keg.

Of course, presidential elections tend to suffocate the truth. But this wasn’t the first incident involving Clinton and Benghazi.

The State Department’s claim that it wasn’t sure Benghazi was a planned terrorist attack until more than a week after the fact is about as believable as a 5-year-old’s explanation for how a cookie

disappeared from the jar.

In 2012, days after the battle in Benghazi, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice assured America on national television that a spontaneous protest outside the consulate had simply taken a bloody turn.

On the same day, Libyan President Mohammed elMegarif called Rice’s version of the story “unfounded and preposterous.”

The White House and State Department used Rice and others to spread what they had to know was fictitious information.

After receiving the initial cries for help from the besieged consulate, a surveillance drone was sent to Benghazi. It arrived in time to see the tail-end of the struggle at the main compound, plus the entire fight at the CIA annex, which means it watched terrorists rain mortar shells onto the annex’s defenders.

Nobody would mistake

mortars, not to mention assault rifles, rocket-propelled grenades and trucks mounted with heavy machine guns, as being part of what was originally a protest.

Now, amid another election, Clinton is echoing the past by twisting the events in Libya again.

We shouldn’t excuse this systematic deception.

If Clinton had the career she says she had, she wouldn’t need to resort to blatant dishonesty in her campaign.

She may loathe admitting that we lost four Americans in Libya on her watch, but, thanks to her, we’ve also suffered another casualty: the truth. mitcchri@indiana.edu @AtlasMitchell

that they may be applied in specific circumstances, and for this reason, Hogan must lose out.

If there was the possibility of being sued for millions of dollars, congressmen might have been afraid to question President Clinton’s affair with Monica Lewinsky and newspapers might have been afraid to run stories about it.

The argument can and has been made this was irrelevant to Clinton’s ability to perform the functions of his job.

Would television programs have been afraid to question the appointment of Clarence Thomas during his nomination hearings over similar matters?

As is commonly said in defense of free speech, hurt feelings are no reason to limit expression.

Privacy is certainly important, and this is in no way intended to denigrate the Fourth Amendment, which protects our privacy and property rights against the state.

But isn’t Hogan simply arguing this expression should be muzzled because it makes him uncomfortable?

Acts he reasonably presumed to be private have been brought to light, and now he is offended that others know about it due to Gawker’s actions.

This discomfort Hogan is experiencing is similar to a lot of other discomfort caused by offensive speech the courts have routinely protected in the name of free and unhindered public dialogue. zaochamb@indiana.edu

LETTER TO THE EDITOR On March 9, 2016, the IDS report on a minor arrested for prostitution glossed the front page. It may have seemed to many readers Bloomington Police Department Capt. Kellams’ response to helping this particular individual was acceptable and heroic.

Nothing could be further from the truth. The article focuses entirely on the 14-yearold, who appears to be uncontrollable, helpless and in need of correction.

Although the police have admitted they don’t understand the motives behind a minor having sex for money, this case was handled in one of the most patronizing, victimizing and dangerous ways with a complete lack of understanding and compassion for youth.

Alexandra Lutnick, a RTI International researcher and author of Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking: Beyond Victims and Villains, states one of the biggest threats minors in the sex trade face is the police.

The problem with the savior complex police are notorious for is the savior mentality does more harm than good.

Having a misdemeanor for prostitution on one’s record makes it difficult to apply for jobs, schools and housing in the future, and as a result, those who wish to leave the sex trade end up returning to it because of the overwhelming amount of stigma and discrimination one experiences

NEVER TELL ME THE ODDS

from their time in the sex industry.

Recently, Ric Curtis, who chairs the anthropology department at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York City, and Meredith Dank set out to research underage sex workers in New York.

Ninety-five percent of youth, they determined, offered sex for money to afford basic human needs such as food, and only 10 percent were held under a pimp.

In a society that coerces everyone to work in order to survive, the sex trade needs to be decriminalized and any prostitution records should be destroyed, especially for youth.

Establishing well-known and well-regarded programs, which are not patronizing and dehumanizing, and allowing youth access to proper health care, survival necessities and other resources, should be prioritized instead of repeating a cycle of criminalization in hopes of rescuing youth.

Refusing to acknowledge the underlying causes of child prostitution and accusing youth involved in the sex trade of being problematic children in need of saving is not only myopic, it ensures violence and the lack of empathy will ensue indefinitely.

Jordan River Forum LETTER TO THE EDITOR Apart from personal preferences and talents, curricular and career choices are often influenced by the economic environment.

For many students the necessity of paying back student loans is a rather grim reality.

Such economic aspects often seem to induce students to choose majors in the professional schools.

The promise of challenging, exciting and well-remunerated careers accessible with degrees from some of the professional schools does seem a powerful enticement.

But it may be useful to check some facts: according to the 2013-14 Salary Report from www.payscale. com, starting salaries for

economics majors are almost $1,000 higher than for finance majors, $6,000 higher than for international business majors and almost $10,000 higher than for marketing and communications majors.

After 15 years of experience these differences are magnified, with economics majors being about $6,000 ahead of finance majors.

While economics seems to dominate most other majors in terms of average or median salary, this domination becomes even more pronounced when considering not the mean or median, but the 90th percentile or 95th percentile of the earnings distribution.

The punch line is easy — good students can expect

the economics major to be an extremely financially rewarding experience.

I am certainly not suggesting at all one should chose a major only because of monetary concerns.

The economics department offers a variety of foundational courses like game theory and econometrics that enable students to tackle many interesting problems as well as courses that focus on exciting fields such as labor markets, international trade or economic growth and development.

Economics stresses rigorous data analysis and interpretation in light of behavioral theories. This combination of behavioral theories and data analysis allows

a powerful study of many issues such as environmental issues, public health problems international affairs such as the refugee issue, just to name a few.

Economics can be combined with many other majors in the sciences, the other social sciences, mathematics, statistics, informatics, business or public policy.

So before you decide a professional school is the best option in your pursuit of an exciting, challenging, rewarding career, think again.

Think economics.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Six years ago today, President Barack Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), more commonly known as Obamacare.

Since the bill’s adoption, more than 20 million people have gained health coverage — the largest decrease in uninsured Americans in nearly four decades.

More than 10 million people have gained active coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace, making full use of the coverage system

available at Healthcare.gov.

Obamacare has had many cost-saving effects on the healthcare system.

The massive gains in coverage have meant less spending on uncompensated care at hospitals, resulting in more than $7 billion in savings.

Better coverage programs and decreased insurance rates have also meant fewer hospital readmissions, increased preventative doctor visits and improved patient safety.

The cost of healthcare is

also growing at its slowest rate in the past 50 years. We have seen insurance premiums increase about 3-4 percent per year, when those same costs were going up by double digits little more than a decade ago.

Under the Affordable Care Act, fewer Americans have had issues paying for health insurance, getting out of medical debt or accessing necessary medical treatments.

When compared to affordability and accessibility metrics of America’s previous

healthcare infrastructure, it is clear the ACA has made massive gains.

Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, our healthcare system has seen more Americans getting more coverage — and all for less money.

After six years of consistent improvements to the American health industry, we should all be wishing Obamacare a very happy birthday.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 about the world, a little naïve, looking for where he belongs.

Fowler is a freshman from Washington D.C., and he said feels like the new kid in a completely different place, like Princeton on Avenue Q. His first song is “What Do You Do with A B.A. in English,” which laments an anxiety Fowler, as a musical theatre major, can relate to.

“The musical theatre program, they pound into your brain that this is not easy, you need to be prepared for some hard things, and this has been another reminder about it all,” he said. “It’s definitely scary, and I feel his fear and

uncertainty.”

In the beginning of the rehearsal process, Fowler said he was overwhelmed by the role and its responsibilities.

Then Kaitlyn Smith, one of the directors, told him to let the show happen to him and he doesn’t have to feel like it’s something he has to carry.

So now, he thinks of it as a journey that he goes on.

Him and Princeton.

“I look at my puppet and we start,” he said. “We get on the train, and the train will go, and we go on it together.” * * * “It’s a hot mess over here.”

Jes Harris, the stage manager, dresses

t h e puppets while the cast goes over notes.

She and two other stage crew members are trying to put a sweater vest and dress shirt on one of them.

“It’s all one piece,” she says. “Son of a bitch.”

It’s tricky to get the clothes on, especially because the puppets have rods attached to their hands, which allow the actors to move them.

Harris’s method is putting the shirt on the body first, and then feeding the arms through.

Each puppet has at least one costume change during the show, which is about 20 changes.

Smith said it’s like putting clothes on a temperamental toddler.

But if you try to put the clothes over the puppets’ heads like you would if you were dressing a child, their eyeballs pop off.

The puppet clothes have brand names, like Hanes and Faded Glory, and come on little plastic hangers.

The detail on the puppets reflects that of their clothes.

One puppet, named Lucy the Slut, is accentuated with red nail polish and a Marilyn Monroe-like beauty mark. During rehearsal, she wears a hairnet to protect her blonde curls.

You can see her nipples through her white and th leopard print shirt.

One puppet has five o’clock shadow.

Another’s perpetually flipping everyone off.

Harris sends all the actors who will be handling puppets b to go wash their hands. It’s part of the agreement the actors signed before working with the puppets — they mustn’t touch them with dirty hands, mustn’t put them on o the ground and must p pay a fee if they are damaged. damage The puppets cost about $2,000 to rent, Smith said.

Laura Jane Grace, frontwoman of influential punk rock band Against Me!, announced Monday she’ll release a memoir in November.

Grace, who came out as transgender in 2012, co-wrote “Tranny: Confessions of Punk Rock’s Most Infamous Anarchist Sellout”

The puppets on the site are horrendous and sad and that’s not what they wanted for their show, Renn said.

The total budget for the show exceeds $10,000. It’s by far one of the most expensive shows University Players has staged.

Each week of rental after the first eight weeks costs an additional $350, which means limited rehearsal time.

The first week having the puppets, the cast participated in a puppet workshop.

Renn said they spent the time getting to know them as friends and people.

They focused on handmouth synchronization between human and puppet during singing and speaking.

When the puppets first arrived in their black boxes, oxes, Julia Thorn was on the fence ence about them. Thorn plays Kate Monster, the other lead and Princeton’s love interest.

The puppets made her a little nervous, she said, d, and she felt workingg with the puppets was either going to be incredible or a complete failure.

with Dan Ozzi, an editor for the online music publication Noisey.

The book will combine narratives of Grace’s life with journal entries dating back to her youth, according to an Entertainment Weekly interview with Ozzi.

In order for the puppets to come to life, the actors have to pay attention to the little details of movement.

A nod, a twitch, a sniffle — they all add up to creating a realistic character.

“If they’re not reacting, they’re dead,” Renn said.

Being so in sync with a hunk of foam and fabric isn’t so easy, Thorn said.

Before running a scene, Thorn puts her puppet at eye level and does mirroring exercises to establish a connection. If she doesn’t, she says, it’s no good — they aren’t coordinated.

But the connection has to go beyond the small stuff, like during a sex scene between Princeton and Kate Monster.

“We’re losing our virginities through our puppets,” pets, Thorn joked to Fowler during rehearsal. “So, are we virgins anymore?”

blows cold air into it.

Working with a puppet is double the work for the actor, Fowler said.

Remembering choreography for both himself and Princeton. Making sure Princeton is earning the credit for his work. Ignoring his cramping thumb.

But it’s still going to be hard for him to let Princeton go.

“Especially because he’ll be shipped away,” Fowler said. “I won’t have him, I won’t see him again. Once it’s over, he will be gone.”

At the end of rehearsal, the actors put the puppets back into their clear plastic bags, back into the black boxes. Then they heft them to a storage room and lock them away.

If they fail to do that, Smith tells them, “the audience will stop looking ng at your puppet and start lookooking at your big fat ass.”

The actors need to disappear. They need to make their puppet so compelling lling the audience forgets there’s ere’s a person on stage controlntrolling it.

Acting with the puppets for a long time can be physically uncomfortable. After a while, Fowler said, his arm and back start to ache and the insides of the puppets get hot and sweaty.

NOBUNNY makes punk rock fun for everyone

By James Freeborn jrfreebo@indiana.edu | @J_Freeborn

There’s a different kind of bunny coming to town just in time for Easter.

NOBUNNY, the rabbitmasked punk rock alter ego of Justin Champlin, will perform Wednesday at the Bishop.

The act began performing 15 years ago on Easter. However, Champlin said some audience members aren’t convinced he’s the real thing.

His mask has changed over the years, he said, and some people have even tried to rip it off while he’s performing to expose him as a fraud.

“There’s been a couple masks and perhaps even a couple NOBUNNYs,” he said.

“Nobody knows.”

The moment Champlin disappears and NOBUNNY arrives is also shrouded in mystery, he said.

“It’s always really obvious when NOBUNNY’s around,” he said. “Justin, you might not notice.”

Oftentimes, he wears little more than the mask and a jacket when performing, and he said certain people don’t take too kindly to his wild live shows.

“We have had people throw their shit at us in New York,” he said. “Someone threw their feces at us.”

But most of the time, he said NOBUNNY is pretty good at entertaining any crowds as long as they have open minds.

“We can get people of all ages dancing, you know, who don’t necessarily like ‘punk rock,’” he said.

NOBUNNY is trying to create a positive environment for showgoers. He said he wants people to smile and feel good.

Instead of looking at music as a career, he said it’s all about art, entertainment and having fun.

“I’d like to think I’d be doing this even if no one cared,” he said.

Because of this mindset, he said he doesn’t feel pressure to crank out albums and

NOBUNNY Tickets $15 9:30 p.m. Wednesday the Bishop tour all the time. NOBUNNY’s last album was released in 2013, and he’s been working on his next release for years.

“I want something that will drop people’s jaws, and I think I got it,” he said. “I’m getting there.”

Though many people classify his music as punk or garage-rock, he said it’s not that simple.

“Punk is like the word love,” he said. “It means a lot of different things to a lot of different people.”

To NOBUNNY, punk is about energy and the freedom to do whatever you want, but he said he doesn’t see distinct lines between punk and other genres.

Rock music is rock music, he said, and all its flavors tend to blend and influence each other.

NOBUNNY is a punk rock performance started by Justin Champlin 15 years ago on Easter. His last album was released in 2013 and Champlin has been working on his next album for the past couple years. NOBUNNY will play at the Bishop on Wednesday.

Still, he said NOBUNNY is unmistakably punk rock at heart.

“A tiger can’t change his stripes,” he said. “I think I just am punk, even if I was

playing, you know, cocktail jazz.”

He said it’s easy for people to watch his performances and see a joke, but it’s something he takes very seriously.

He loves punk, he said, but he also knows how to laugh.

“It’s something that I love to make fun of, because I love it so much,” he said. “It’s family.”

LIVING LA SEVILLA LOCA

With Brussels terror attacks Tuesday, a tragic reminder of reality Following the recent terrorist attacks in Ankara, Turkey, and Paris, different stories arose expressing the “what if”s of the situations.

I was supposed to be there that day.

If this happened one day later, I would have been there.

I walked that street every day, but for some reason, I chose a different route that morning.

There are always stories of people wondering what could have happened if the situation was just slightly altered from reality.

I had that moment Tuesday when I woke up to CNN alerts on my phone

informing me of explosions at the Brussels Zaventem Airport in Belgium.

If this were to have occurred three days later, I would have been at that very airport, potentially among the more than 30 dead and 100 injured due to a terrorist attack carried out by the Islamic State group.

This week is Semana Santa, or “Holy Week,” throughout the Catholic world. It serves as spring break in Seville, Spain.

I have traveled to Italy to visit Rome and Florence, and I will be in Venice by evening today.

At the end of the week, we will fly home to Spain. We were hoping to add another

city on our “visited” list along the way.

My friends and I purposefully bought tickets with a nearly eight-hour layover in the Brussels Airport with the goal of leaving for a couple of hours in search of an authentic Belgium waffle.

That silly dream disappeared Tuesday as reports of more deaths and confirmation of the explosion being a terror attack poured in.

On Tuesday morning following the news, we just continued our day exploring Italy. We knew our parents were not even awake yet to learn of what had happened.

We visited the Accademia

Gallery, famous for Michelangelo’s “The David,” after breakfast, and during our two hour wait in line the situation grew and grew.

We contacted our program in Spain, and they told us we should not keep our original flight under any circumstances. Our files were all flagged and were kept on constant communication until we successfully booked another flight, avoiding Belgium all together.

We received an email from our program at one point in the day asking if we knew anyone who could potentially be in or around Brussels. They were try-

ing to confirm everyone’s whereabouts.

As of Tuesday evening, I did not know anyone in Brussels, but the “what if” stories are starting to pile up.

This event made me push myself to acknowledge the chaos of the world around me.

When someone reads about a tragic event that occurred in a different part of the world, or even in a different neighborhood, they always think of the situation in a personal context. The proximity of the action, however, is rarely present.

Today I had a realization of both human interest and

proximity, making me really think of the “what if” of the situation.

There are currently no IU students studying in Brussels, IU spokesperson Mark Land said in a statement.

This doesn’t stop me from worrying about the safety of my IU family in addition to friends from other colleges in this time of unease.

Going abroad offers nothing less than unexpected experiences.

Sometimes reality reminds us not every experience may be positive.

IU freshman named Swimmer of the Year

SPORTS

After winning both the 100 and 200 breast stroke in record fashion at the NCAA Championships, Lilly King was named the Big Ten Swimmer of the Year on Tuesday.

King is the first woman to win two NCAA Championships in the same year and the first

IU Coach Ray Looze was named Big Ten Coach of the Year after leading the Hoosiers to a seventh-place finish at the NCAA Championships.

SWIM AND DIVE

IU freshman breaks multiple NCAA records

By Hailey Hernandez hmhernan@indiana.edu

Lilly King said she always knew she was fast. The freshman also said she knew she was capable of winning her events and setting records.

But what she said she didn’t know was she would be a double American record holder in the 100 and 200 breaststroke after her first year.

Last weekend at the NCAA Championships, King became the first woman ever to swim faster than 57 seconds in the 100 breaststroke.

Her time of 56.85 led her to her first career NCAA title and set an NCAA meet record, U.S. Open meet record, IU school record and a Big Ten record.

In high school, King said she considered the 100 breaststroke to be her best event.

But one day after setting the American record in the event, King proved she is the best in the 200 as well.

She became the first woman ever to swim faster than 2:04 in the 200 breaststroke and King’s 2:03.59 finish was almost three seconds ahead of the second place finisher.

King said she expected to get faster and stronger but she didn’t think she would achieve the goals she set at the beginning of her college career at the end of one season.

“I had an idea of where I was headed as my times kept

getting faster,” King said. “But to be able to do all of this in my first season was something I never expected. I went in expecting to win my events, but I had high expectations for myself to set the records. Two ARs in one meet is a big deal, and I’m happy I could contribute for my team.”

King took part in scoring 78 of IU’s 228 points, helping lead IU. King said it’s a little weird to know the next time she swims, she will be swimming against her own American records.

Next season, King says her mentality will be simple: don’t lose.

Even with two recordbreaking swims, King said she wasn’t fully pleased with the way she looked in the water.

“Once I watched it back, I thought my 200 looked better,” King said. “In the 100, my stroke was choppy, and my turns weren’t the greatest. I could have done a lot better with my start and pullouts.”

King said she is used to high expectations and thrives off of a competitive atmosphere. She has been swimming against the men’s team during the season to give her faster opponents to race against.

The combined men’s and women’s program at IU was a big deal for King when

Freshman Lilly King at practice Dec. 7, 2015. King won both the 100 and 200 yard breaststroke at the NCAA Championships last week in Atlanta, Georgia, setting new NCAA and American records in both events. King was the first woman to break the 57-second barrier in the 100-yard breaststroke with a time of 56.85. She scored another NCAA and American record in the 200-yard breaststroke with a time of 2:03.59.

deciding where she wanted to continue swimming. After traveling to IU to watch Tennessee swim, she fell in love with the Hoosiers’ program and wanted to have an official visit to see if it would be the right place for her.

When King visited, she almost committed on the spot, she said. King said she hates awkward situations so

remembering how easily she could talk and joke with the group was what sold her.

When she is up on the starting blocks, it is not uncommon to see King smiling before she enters the water.

“You’ll always find me cheesing up behind the starting blocks,” King said.

“If you look around before the race, everyone is so seri-

ous, and it makes me laugh.

The way I look at it, no matter what happens, there’s always going to be another race for me to swim.”

King started swimming when she was 8 years old.

She said she innocently told people she wanted to be an Olympic athlete one day.

When she was 16, she said it set in that this dream

could be a reality. Now, three years later, she said she feels she is on the right track.

“Ever since that day, everything I do I do around that,” King said. “My ultimate goal is to focus on the Olympic trials beginning at the end of June. I’m just going to keep doing what I’ve been doing, because so far it seems to be working.”

IU prepares to face in-state rival before conference play

By Jake Thomer jjthomer@indiana.edu @JakeTheThomer

IU will look to keep its hot streak rolling and head into the Big Ten season on a strong note when it plays Indiana State tonight.

The Hoosiers (16-10) are ranked 47th in RPI out of 295 Division I teams, and are good for the sixth-highest rank of all Big Ten teams. Indiana State (7-19) sits at 212th in RPI entering Wednesday night’s matchup.

“This game is important because it’s our last before we

open up conference play over the weekend,” IU Coach Michelle Gardner said.

IU will try to carry over some offensive momentum from the weekend. The Hoosiers scored 11 runs Sunday afternoon against Western Illinois, IU’s first double-digit run total this season.

But IU did more than score 11 runs against Western Illinois. The Hoosiers battled back from a seven-run deficit after the first inning. Gardner said she was proud of the composure the team showed in the comeback.

“They didn’t give up when

it was 7-0,” Gardner said.

“That was one of our better offensive games of the year and it was really a group effort as everyone contributed.”

The Hoosier lineup has combined to bat .238 thus far, and has scored 93 runs in 26 games. Led by sophomore leadoff batter and centerfielder Rebecca Blitz, the top of the lineup has seen the most consistent production.

Blitz leads the way in hits, runs and stolen bases, while maintaining a .367 batting average. Junior utility player Erin Lehman, who is second on the team with a .308

IU still looking for consistent mid-week starting pitching

By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@indiana.edu | @ZainPyarali

Dominant was the word IU Coach Chris Lemonis used when he was asked what he thought of senior starting pitcher Caleb Baragar’s last outing against Toledo. Domination could be used to classify the entire weekend starting staff as a whole.

The dilemma for the Hoosiers is that, beyond their trustworthy core of seniors Kyle Hart, Evan Bell and Caleb Baragar, who have a combined 1.79 ERA on the season, the outlook is thin regarding starting pitching.

Lemonis has experimented with different starting pitchers three times this year. As the season progresses, the mid-week games will start to pile up as Lemonis is still looking to find one extra starter he can rely on.

“In a couple weeks we need two guys that can pitch during the week,” Lemonis said. “That’s going to be the hard part.”

While allowing nearly five runs in each game not started by one of the seniors, junior Luke Stephenson has gotten the starting nod twice and freshman Pauly Milto earned his first career start and win Sunday.

In Stepheson’s first start against Seton Hall he only lasted three innings.

During last Tuesday’s

game against Evansville, Stephenson earned his second start of the season but was only able to work through three innings again.

“We knew it would be a bullpen day, we kind of had it set up for everybody,” Lemonis said. “When we start Luke we’re thinking right now we’d like to get five innings from him. Hopefully we can get three, four, five in there or once or twice through the lineup and then hand it off to our bullpen.”

Milto was a part of that bullpen group given the ball against Evansville once Stephenson was removed. Entering the game with one runner aboard and two runs already for the Aces in the inning, Milto allowed the next two batters to reach on a hit by pitch and walk before a 2 RBI single.

Once he had allowed the runs to score, Milto settled down striking out the final batter of the inning and returned to the mound for a scoreless inning.

His performance was enough to grab Lemonis’ attention as he earned the start in the four game series finale Sunday and dazzled on the mound through five innings.

“Cal State Fullerton was definitely the most hyped up, but then Evansville I got under my feet some more,” Milto said. “Then this start kind of sealed the deal, and I’m feeling pretty good.”

IU (9-9) vs. Butler (6-12) 6:05 p.m., Bart Kaufman Field Only allowing two hits and one unearned run while striking out three is exactly the type of start Lemonis said he wants to see out of his mid-week starters.

On Wednesday, when IU takes on Butler for the second time this season, the starter will remain unknown until just hours before first pitch.

Given the fact Milto would be on three days rest removes his name from the conversation, Stephenson is the frontrunner, but Lemonis could try his hand with a different pitcher.

Sophomore BJ Sabol has worked through 9.1 innings this season with his longest outing coming in relief of Stephenson, tossing three innings against Seton Hall.

Freshman Jonathan Stiever could be in the mix with his last appearance coming more than a week ago when he stuck out three over 4.2 scoreless innings of relief.

Even if some of the younger players aren’t confident enough yet to go out and show what they can do on the mound in game situation, they can always fall back on the seniors in the rotation for help.

“They always have my back no matter how I’m pitching,” Milto said.

batting average, primarily holds down the second spot in the lineup.

IU has received most of its power from junior infielder CaraMia Tsirigos and senior catcher Kelsey Dotson, both regulars in the heart of the lineup. The two have combined for five of the team’s nine home runs, with Lehman also contributing two long balls.

Aside from the top-heavy production of the Hoosier lineup, the team’s young pitching staff has been forced to keep IU in plenty of lowscoring affairs this season.

Freshman pitcher Tara Trainer, who garnered her third Big Ten Freshman of the Week award Monday for her performance in the Hoosier Classic this past weekend, has gotten better as the season has gone on. Her most recent performances dropped her season ERA to 1.89.

The righty from Lebanon, Ohio, has also struck out 110 batters in just 81.1 innings pitched this year. Trainer and fellow freshman pitcher Josie Wood (2.58 ERA) anchor the staff together, and redshirt freshman pitcher Emily Kirk (4.50 ERA) rounds out the

rotation.

Any of the three arms could be expected to pitch in any game for IU, as each pitcher has experience both starting and relieving in games this year.

With Big Ten play beginning against Iowa this weekend, Gardner said it will be important for IU to work out the kinks in several facets of their game before the meat of their schedule kicks in.

“We need to go out there and fine-tune some parts of our game to get ready for this next part of the season,” Gardner said.

“We don’t look at the glass as half-empty if he gets two fouls, and it’s very easy to do that,” Crean said. “We have to figure out what we’re going to do next.”

But if Bryant was able to do that in limited action in the first two rounds, more minutes could mean more production.

Bryant said this means doing a variety of things on the court to try and stay out of early foul trouble. Even if the calls were questionable, he can still avoid being put in those situations.

“Honestly just mostly moving better, lateral quickness,” Bryant said. “Just being in spots faster, talking more out there and trying to get in a position where the ref doesn’t have to make those iffy calls.”

Glenda Ritz, Indiana superintendant of public instruction, speaks at a rally put on by the IU College Democrats for Democratic candidates at the Indiana Memorial Union on Oct. 28, 2014.

» ISTEP

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Tuesday.

Mark Lotter, the director of external relations at the SBOE, said the state’s new accountability system, finalized about a week ago, will change the way the ISTEP affects school grades for the next two years.

For grades 3-8, the A-F grades will weigh individual student progress and the overall pass-fail rates equally, Lotter said.

The focus on yearlong progress was one educators indicated they wanted from the state board, he said.

The panel looking at new test options will also revise the accountability system, Lotter said.

But with a new president

and secretary of education yet to be appointed, Indiana’s testing requirements for 2018 are still vague.

“There are a lot of questions out there,” Lotter said.

Federal law still requires annual testing that cumulatively measures everything a student learns in a given year, Lotter said.

But other requirements won’t be set until after the election, which is why the panel won’t report its findings to Pence until Dec. 1, Lotter said.

In the meantime, the state’s accountability system and students’ adjustment to the new, more rigorous ISTEP should even out school scores, Lotter said.

“We’ll see fewer F schools and fewer A

schools,” he said. “You’ll see more B and C schools, and I think you’ll see it grow from there.”

Glenda Ritz, the current state superintendent, spoke out against ISTEP and A-F school grading system in January.

On her website, she denounced the “expensive, lengthy, high stakes, pass/ fail approach” of the No Child Left Behind test.

The Indiana Department of Education directed media requests to a March 14 op-ed by Ritz that ran in the Journal Gazette.

In the piece, Ritz further criticizes the legislative session’s measures, which she said “appears to be drawn up around a political agenda rather than an education one.”

WIN TICKETS

“For reasons that have not been explained, and despite my personal written request to the governor and General Assembly leadership ... the chair of the panel to study alternatives to ISTEP+ will be a political appointee of the most political person in the state: Pence,” Ritz said in the piece.

On Jan. 21, Pence signed two other ISTEP reprieves into law, affecting the results of the 2015 test.

Senate Bill 200 provided the results of the 2015 ISTEP couldn’t negatively affect a school’s grade from the 20132014 school year, meaning many schools kept the same acountability score as the previous year.

House Bill 1003 allowed a teacher to either use the 2014 or 2015 ISTEP scores —

whichever was higher — to calculate a personal evaluation for 2016.

HEA 1395 passed 38-10 in the House of Representatives in late February and, after more work in committee, passed unanimously in the Indiana Senate.

It went back to the House of Representatives to resolve changes and passed 77-19 in early March before moving to Pence’s desk.

“I’m also grateful to sign into law bills that will help ensure students in Indiana receive an excellent education in a safe and nurturing environment, and that working teachers who take in additional responsibilities may receive recognition and compensation for their efforts,” Pence said in a state press release.

IU also added 6-foot-1 wing Bre Wickware, who is able to play Walter’s position on the perimeter.

Walter is the first player to transfer from the program this season after four players departed following Moren’s first season in charge of the program.

Guards Larryn Brooks (Texas Tech), Maura Muensterman (Belmont) and Taylor Agler (Ohio) all left, while forward Liz Stratman (Stephen F. Austin) also departed.

IU saw its season end Monday to top-seed Notre Dame in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, 87-70.

The Hoosiers capped off a historic season with their first NCAA win since 2002, defeating Georgia in the first round.

“The entire staff and I want to thank Jess Walter for her hard work and dedication over the last two seasons,” IU Coach Teri Moren said. “We accomplished so much this year with her as part of this program, and we wish her nothing but the best going forward.”
