Robert Liu remembered as intelligent, generous By Suzanne Grossman spgrossm@indiana.edu | @suzannepaige6

Robert Liu, pictured above, died June 7 in New York. While at IU, Liu studied finance at the Kelley School of Business.
Robert Liu competed in three to four business case competitions a year and his friend, Jake Castell, can’t remember him losing one. “Anything he didn’t win, it’s because they didn’t want him to win again,” Castell said. “I can’t remember if he ever lost one, but if he did he still would get an award for best presenter or something.” But his friends saw more in him than just a smart brain. They
said they saw an immensely generous friend who was loyal to the end. Liu died June 7 in an NYU dorm he was staying at while interning in the city. Even though Liu was competitive, he would often be found assisting other teams or anyone who needed help. “He never sacrificed the opportunity to help someone for his own benefit and he didn’t need to,” Castell said. “If anyone wanted help they always got it.” He is remembered by many as the smartest person they’ve ever

Standing in solidarity By Grace Palmieri gpalmier@indiana.edu | @grace_palmieri
Before dozens of LGBT people were shot and killed inside an Orlando nightclub, they celebrated. The LGBT community celebrated love. It celebrated pride. It celebrated each individual. Two years ago, couples young and old rushed to the Bloomington courthouse when “same-sex” marriage became just “marriage” in the state of Indiana. And again, the next summer, when same-sex marriage was legalized across the country. Those same feelings — of conviction, pride and love — brought the community together again Tuesday night. Blocks away from where they celebrated, more than a thousand LGBT members came together — this time to mourn. Gathered in front of City Hall, they passed light from one candle to the next, remembering the 49 victims of the biggest mass

shooting in American history. “Orlando strong, Orlando love,” they chanted. “Bloomington strong, Bloomington love. Love and beauty, wins all.” Rainbow flags, umbrellas, headbands and ribbons adorned the crowd. Two little kids, wearing matching rainbow-colored suspenders with angel wings, played together in a red wagon. Ella, 4, and Gavin, 5, were too young to understand what happened.

almost 12 years ago when it first became legal in Massachusetts. As soon as he heard the news Sunday morning, Steven was worried for a friend in Orlando. He’s no stranger to tragedy as he grew up near Newtown, Connecticut, where 27 children were fatally shot at Sandy Hook Elementary School in December 2012. Even in a community as LGBT-friendly as Bloomington, incidents like these make Steven wary of his, and his family’s, safety. SEE VIGIL, PAGE 5
Harp competition taking place at Jacobs By Allen Laman alaman@umail.iu.edu | @allen_laman
Between performances, a man wearing black gloves wheels a dolly across the stage and slides the harps off to the left. The judges sit at the front of the audience in Merrill Hall, scribbling down their final comments as another set of strings rolls out. On the walls to their sides are the busts of famous classical composers — Mozart, Wagner and Tchaikovsky, among others — omnisciently gazing forward as the next performer takes the stage. “It’s like the Olympics,” said Erin Brooker-Miller, the competition’s program director. “The people who win this competition go on to be the professionals of the harp world.” The 10th USA International Harp Competition is taking place at various Jacobs School of Music buildings. The first stage began June 8, and the competition’s finals will play out June 18. “On that final day, someone’s life is going to change,” said competition volunteer Andy Miller, Brooker-Miller’s husband. “You’re propelled to international fame in

Drew Allen Williams writes letters Monday evening at the Back Door to those directly affected in Orlando, Florida’s attack. “What drew me here was to be part of something the Back Door has to offer, to help other members of the community that I am involved in,” Williams said.
Locals write to Florida victims By Suzanne Grossman spgrossm@indiana.edu @suzannepaige6
Co-owner of the Back Door, Nicci B, didn’t wake up until noon Sunday, but upon waking they could tell something was wrong by their partner’s breathing. Nicci assumed it was something to do with other problems the bar had been facing earlier that week, but soon learned of the shooting that killed 49 and injured 53 more at an LGBT bar in Orlando, Florida. The Back Door played host to a letter-writing event Monday night to send support to anyone who needed it, but especially those in Orlando. “My thoughts went immediately to the fellow bar owners,” Nicci said. “Just how devastating for this to happen at a community center for marginalized people. To imagine that in a
space where you try to foster compassion is terrible.” The bar was quiet despite full tables of people writing letters and drawing pictures to send off. A table at the front of the room provided paper and several utensils for writing. Addresses for Pulse, the LGBT Center of Central Florida and Equality Florida were provided along with addresses of Bloomington representatives Todd Young, Dan Coats and Joe Donnely. “I’m not writing to politicians,” Fernanda Cesnik said. “They won’t do anything, they don’t care, so why would I waste my time?” Fernanda said she came to the event to be around other people who cared. She attended with her daughter Abigail and friend Julius Lee who both agreed the event made them feel less alone and said it was a good start for the healing process. “We definitely came here
to write letters,” Abigail said. “Not only to show support, but it also allows us to process our thoughts, and say how we feel and let people know they’re loved.” Fernanda and Lee echoed this sentiment of wanting the people of Orlando to know they are loved from miles away and that they wish they could be there with them. Melissa Montes and Mateo Perez showed up at the Back Door to stand in solidarity with the victims, especially those of the Latinx community. Latinx refers to the Latino community that is gender inclusive, Perez said. Perez spent his time at the event drawing a cactus with the pride flag to represent Latino heritage, but also LGBT minorities who were affected by the shooting. “Most of the victims were just queer people of color,
and I want them to feel empowered and not marginalized,” Perez said. Nicci also said they hope people can understand this tragedy as intersectional and that to do otherwise is a disgrace to the victims. Additionally, Nicci spoke out about the Islamaphobia coming out and said in their experiences if anyone has oppressed queer people it is white Christians. Nicci said they thought about what they would want if something similar were to happen at the Back Door. They said tangible things are more helpful than emails or online comments because there is personality attached to a letter or drawing. “This event is one of catharsis more than anything,” Nicci said. “It’s a time to come talk, spread some hugs, shed some tears, do whatever and tell each other we’re going to get through this.”

IUPUI improves diversity in SPEA By Kendall Fleder kfleder@indiana.edu
The IU School of Public and Environmental Affairs at IUPUI looks to improve recruitment of underrepresented minorities and firstgeneration students with two recent hires. The school hired Marshawm Wolley as director of community engagement and strategic initiatives and Tamra Wright as the new director of diversity, equity and inclusion. Wolley graduated from IU, where he earned his MPA from SPEA and his MBA from the Kelley School of Business. Wolley previously worked for VisitIndy as director of partner relations. Prior to that, he teamed up with the 2012 Indianapolis Super Bowl Host Committee to agent the NFL’s Emerging Business Program. The program worked closely with minority and women-owned businesses to teach them about Super Bowl vendor procurement opportunities. Wolley will help SPEA launch new and foster old relationships with the community’s core leaders. “The community engagement position was created to engage the community with a concern for going out and getting resources such as scholarship dollars and internship opportunities,” Wolley said. His engagement with these crucial community partners will amplify community engagement and diversity initiatives. “I want to make sure that our students are prepared to work,” Wolley said. “I want to make sure that we are providing everything they need and leveraging the community to help with that process.” Wright earned an MPA in policy management and a master’s degree in criminal justice. Now, Wright returns to IUPUI where she formerly worked as the assistant director of Upward Bound. While there, Wright helped initiate a federal program that benefits underprivileged high school students. In her new role, Wright will focus on recruitment
and retention of underrepresented students. She said she hopes to continue to speak with the K-12 educators she has been in conversation with throughout her career. In doing so, Wright said she wants to make sure the needs of incoming underrepresented and minority students are put in the forefront for her and her colleagues. “Everyone has different needs, and we need to make sure that we have the resources to satisfy the needs of the very different students that we are getting here on campus,” Wright said. Wright said she wants to start new conversations with students who feel IUPUI lacks diversity so she can hone in on the change they would like to see on campus. Economics and support are two primary factors significantly lacking in the lives of underrepresented minorities and first-generation student’s that make recruitment difficult, Wright said. “A lot of times when you see underrepresented students dropping out or leaving it’s not because they aren’t academically capable its because all of the other life factors are happening and those support services are not in place,” Wright said. Students who are academically equipped but can’t afford a four-year college education often enroll in community college, Wright said. “We need to prepare students to leave here and be able to work and thrive in an environment that’s diverse,” Wright said. “Diversity in the world is what makes it great.” In Bloomington, construction of the Paul H. O’Neil graduate center in SPEA is underway. Although it is not a direct recruitment project, the new space has high expectations like those of the recent hires at IUPUI. “I see the new graduate center serving very instrumental purposes, in that we will have classrooms and offices,” Dean Michael McGuire of SPEA said. “But I also think it is going to foster community for all populations here.”

East, Big 12 and SEC conferences host the forum and select the minority coaches. McCullough is in his sixth season as IU’s running backs coach. The running backs have thrived with McCullough as their coach and went on to break 19 school rushing records under his tenure. Tevin Coleman and Jor-
dan Howard became the first Hoosier running backs to be drafted in consecutive years since 1990 to 1992. The Chicago Bears selected Howard in the fifth round of the NFL Draft this year. The Atlanta Falcons selected Coleman in the third round in 2015. Andrew Hussey

IU alum Kelsey Dotson signs with the Chicago Bandits From IDS reports
Former Hoosier softball player Kelsey Dotson signed a one-year contract with the Chicago Bandits, according to a release. The Bandits play in the National Pro Fastpitch Softball League. Dotson graduated from IU. Initially, she signed a 10day contract with the Bandits on May 30 and earned a longer contract with her play. “I’m so proud of Kelsey and excited for her opportunity with the Bandits,” IU
Coach Michelle Gardner said in a release. “She was a tremendous part of this program for the last four years and I cannot wait to see what she does in this next step of her career.” Dotson was a two-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree and finished her career as a Hoosier with 23 home runs, which is tied for ninth in program history. Her 14 home runs in 2015 are the second most by a player in a season at IU. Dotson missed 18 games this past season with an injury and finished the season
with 25 hits, 23 walks, 21 RBI and 16 runs. Dotson joins Indiana alumnus Morgan Melloh as a National Pro Fastpitch player. Melloh was drafted by the NPF Diamonds in 2011 and has been a member of the Dallas Charge for the last two seasons. Andrew Hussey

ILLUSTRATION BY CHASE BOGAN | IDS
EDITORIAL BOARD
Standing against homophobia WE SAY: Media should recognize the prejudice to blame In an act of violence directed against the LGBT community, a gunman named Omar Mateen killed 49 people at a gay nightclub called Pulse in Orlando, Florida, on June 12. The Editorial Board condemns this horrific hate crime against the LGBT community. Sunday’s shooting was the deadliest terrorist attack since Sept. 11, 2001, in the United States and the worst mass shooting in U.S. history. Yet, many news outlets neglected to address this attack on the LGBT community for what it was: a hate crime. On Sky News, for example, journalist Owen Jones left an on-air interview because he claimed one of
the hosts was not seriously addressing how the LGBT community was targeted by Mateen’s actions. Some companies did pay respect to the LGBT community. The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation introduced a profile picture on Facebook of a rainbow pride flag and the words “We Are Orlando” in a gesture of support toward the victims and their families. Others were quick to pinpoint Islam as the cause of the mass shooting and ignored the homophobia that was to blame for the attack. According to Orlando Weekly, Florida Gov. Rick Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi were both originally hesitant to address the LGBT community following
the shooting. In an interview on CNN, Anderson Cooper spoke with Bondi. He pointed out that she had previously opposed same-sex marriage, a claim Bondi denied before attempting to change the subject. Meanwhile Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump intensified his call for a ban on Muslims entering the U.S. following the shooting. His insensitive tweets incited a disagreement from House Speaker Paul Ryan, who said he opposed the proposed ban on Muslims in the US. The Editorial Board argues the lack of emphasis on homophobia that helped foster the attack on the Pulse nightclub must be
countered by outlets covering the event and politicians who are responding to it. It is only with work promoting acceptance of the LGBT community that future attacks on it can be avoided in the future. It is when LGBT people can safely exist in American public life, without attempts on their livelihoods, that work to protect them can be finished. Until that point comes, stronger protections for the LGBT community must be put into place to counter the violence that is often targeted at the community. While federal hate crimes legislation exists, far too often acts of violence like the one seen in Orlando still occur in the lives of LGBT people.
SHOWALTER’S SHOW AND TELL
Addressing a problem with the pro-life argument In addition to last week’s editorial on Indiana’s new abortion law and the letter to the editor from Rev. Ray Salemink in response, I’d like to contribute my final argument regarding abortion and the pro-life lobby. The editorial “Indiana abortion law harms education” discussed the repercussions of House enrolled act 1337, which would prevent IU from being able to pursue stem cell research. According to the Gallup poll referenced in both last Monday’s editorial and the letter by Rev. Salemink, 46 percent of the nation considers themselves pro-life. According to that same poll, only 19 percent of the nation believes abortion should be illegal in all cases. This means nearly
60 percent of pro-lifers believe abortion is acceptable in at least some cases, most commonly cases of rape and incest. To me, it seems this section of pro-life supporters actually support pro-choice. In cases of rape, though, the same Gallup poll shows the majority of pro-life supporters would permit the victim of rape or incest to have an abortion if she became impregnated by her rapist. So if fetuses and people had equal protection under the law and fetuses that were the product of rape or incest are allowed to be murdered, then it follows that any living, breathing person who was the product of rape or incest wouldn’t be protected against murder.
Equal protection works both ways. Of course, no one actually believes people should be able to be murdered because they were the product of rape or incest. This destroys the idea that, for 60 percent, a fetus is exactly equal to the life of a person. They’ve chosen what situations make it acceptable for a woman to have an abortion. This picking and choosing makes the logic behind their set of beliefs and political stance completely inconsistent. The 40 percent of the pro-life supporters who think abortion should be illegal in all cases are, at least, not the hypocrites of the group.
THERIN SHOWALTER is a sophomore in media studies.
This group of people could look at a 13-year-old girl, a rape victim carrying her rapist’s child, and condemn her to motherhood, which, at that age, under those circumstances, would be nothing short of a physical and emotional trauma. For this group of people, I offer no argument. I’m sure they’ll claim victory in that. But excuse the other 81 percent of us while we fight for the protection of women’s rights. thshowal@umail.iu.edu @TherinShowalter

I’ve been struggling to find the words to describe how I feel after Sunday’s tragedy in Orlando, Florida. Individuals within the LGBT community face challenges every day of our lives. We fear for our safety if we want to hold the hand of the person we love in public. We constantly worry about whether we are safe enough to come out to our friends, our co-workers and our families. We always wonder if someone or a group of people will surround us and beat us simply for walking, breathing and existing in our own country. Being lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender in America is exhausting. It is alienating. It is lonely. It is full of hardship. It’s not a glamorous dance party by any means, especially when LGBT people are routinely attacked and stigmatized every day. The culture of violence against the LGBT community extends far beyond the actions of one man with a gun at a nightclub. It permeates many aspects of our society. From politicians calling on transgender people to use separate bathrooms, to religious leaders preaching anti-gay messages instead of love and compassion, to someone on your Facebook feed sharing videos making fun of gay people. These are all acts of violence because they reduce the LGBT community to a joke, a punching bag or both. We’re not visible as human beings. We’re viewed as being sub-human, because we are different. Time and time again,
TRISTAN FITZPATRICK is a junior in journalism and history.
the LGBT community has faced enormous difficulties because of this culture. Our community has endured the worst of the AIDS crisis, laws criminalizing homosexuality and constitutional bans against same-sex marriage. When one faces this reality, it makes one wonder: “Is it even worth it to be who I am? To be me in this world?” The answer is yes, of course, it’s worth it to be who you are. Though there will be people who threaten our community, they can’t deny that we exist. We’re here. We are Americans who contribute to the diversity of life that enriches and enhances us all. We are, simply, people. We’re people. It can be difficult, but it’s when we talk to people who are different from us that we learn and grow and reach our highest potential. Even though our community has been attacked repeatedly during our history, we have survived. We have persevered. We have continued living, despite the continued threats, despite the judgmental looks and despite the intolerance we experience. Through it all, we’ve earned a sense of pride about being who we are. And that’s something the Orlando shooter can never take away from us. ttfitzpa@umail.iu.edu @tfitzwrites

I don’t have a problem with these foods. I have a problem with the popularity of foodstuffs that spreads like a vehement wildfire. It ruins the enjoyment of these novelties for those of us who are simply hungry. As soon as something becomes instagram famous, it is no longer accessible to the rest of us. Until this summer, I didn’t think twice about trendy foods like over-thetop milkshakes or lobster rolls. You see, I used to have a favorite ice cream place in New York called Morgenstern’s. Until #KanyeIceCreamWeek, a genuine, week long event, took over the place. Back in 2014, I started interning on the Lower East Side, and I’d do the same commute every day. One morning I saw some workers painting a bright blue bench outside of a new shop. I peered inside where a black and white sign saying “cash only” adorned a pristine white wall, and there was a wrap-around bar to the right that seated four. The floor was covered in tiny black and white honeycomb tiles, the perfect backdrop for a decadent Instagram. This was an OG ice cream parlor with flavors like Burnt Honey Vanilla, Vietnamese Coffee and Sweet Potato Mello. Morgenstern’s is, for lack of a better word, a new breed of ice cream. It is made in small batches, and each recipe is different, depending on the flavor profile. This information I received courtesy of the man

sitting behind the counter with a friendly beard and soda jerk hat resting atop his head. The ingenuity of this place is insane and I completely fell for it, as did the rest of New York City and its constant barrage of tourists, nearly two years later. Combine the high quality of the ice cream with a commodified celebrity like Kanye West and boom: #KanyeIceCreamWeek is born. Need I say more? The limited edition menu showcases items like “The Young Metro milkshake,” “Bound 2 banana split,” “I AM A GOD Croissant Ice Cream Sandwich,” and “Father Stracciatella My Hands Pt. 1.” It’s smart, it’s savvy, it’s knee-jerkingly annoying and the line is three hours long. You couldn’t pay me to wait in a line that long, surrounded by avid millennials trying to get their trendy food fix for the week. It makes me sad. But then I thought about all of the Brooklyn locals who used to get their morning bagels and coffee at the rainbow bagel place, the Bagel Store. It sucks, but they’re not about to wait in line at 5 a.m. every morning to get breakfast. Once food becomes a trend, it’s no longer edible in the normal sense of the word. It’s commodified, digitalized, liked and drooled over thousands of times. It just isn’t worth it. It’s like liking a song before it gets famous — it doesn’t sound as good when it’s on the radio. jlkarl@umail.iu.edu @jkarl26

the transition. The majority of employees at the Bloomington refrigeration plant are paid hourly, with only 28 salaried employees, according to the release. The plant isn’t closed yet, but GE Appliances has announced and proposed an intent to phase out refrigeration design and production at the Bloomington location. The company’s proposal is subject to UnionCompany discussions, according to the release, and those discussions are expected to begin immediately this week.

“It’s a daily fear,” he said.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 * * * Policies can change, but that doesn’t mean our culture does, Sarah Perfetti said. Perfetti, executive director of Bloomington PRIDE, said she wants to change the way we look at queer people. Teenagers shouldn’t be afraid to speak up in class because their voice doesn’t match who they feel they are. Perfetti herself didn’t come out until her twenties because she said she was afraid . Bloomington PRIDE encourages people to explore their identities and love whoever they love, Perfetti said. “It’s not OK that our coworkers are uncomfortable because you came to work yesterday as James, wearing a tie, and today you came to work as Jessica in red heels,” she said. On a normal day, Perfetti will turn on public radio when she wakes up. She’ll read the news. But on this Sunday morning she was in a rush to get to Bloomington PRIDE’s annual retreat. When she arrived, Perfetti heard about what happened at Pulse nightclub early that morning. And as the meeting dragged on, members of the board periodically checked their phones for updates. Ten dead, 20 dead, 50 dead. For them, this wasn’t just another one of the hundreds of shootings that have devastated cities across the U.S. this year — it was their own. And it could’ve happened anywhere, like at the Back

Door, Bloomington’s only gay bar. It could’ve been a friend or coworker or her gay brother, Perfetti thought. Tuesday night, Kyle Hayes, a Bloomington PRIDE board member, felt both anger and joy as he looked out upon Bloomington’s LGBT community. “I marvel at just how wonderfully and painfully beautiful we can be together,” he said. * * * A single yellow dahlia lay on top of a wilted red rose. Doug Bauder still doesn’t known who left them on the wall outside his office — just another silent statement of solidarity within his community. As director of IU’s Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Student Support Services Office, Bauder serves as a mentor, educator, counselor and friend to students who need a place to feel safe and welcome. He said these shootings — 141 have occurred in 2016 alone — have become all too common. Bauder spoke at the vigil Tuesday. He said he fell asleep Sunday night with tears streaming down his face, only
to wake a few hours later with a song running through his head. It was a hymn called “The Lord of the Dance,” written as if God were singing to his people. I danced in the morning when the world was begun, And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun. One of the last things the club-goers in Pulse were doing before their lives ended was dancing. They whipped and they stripped, And they hung me high, And they left me there on a cross to die. “If there’s any message I’d like to leave with you tonight, it’s that the dance goes on,” Bauder said. As the vigil came to a close, Quarryland Men’s Chorus took the stage to sing one last song. Everyone joined in. Candles were quickly burning, white, hot wax splattering drip by drip on the concrete. Loved ones embraced one another. Steven Naldi held Gavin in his arms and rocked him back and forth. “We are a justice-seeking people,” they all sang. “And we are singing, singing for our lives.”
has today, Castell said. Other friends, Larry Reverman and Dan Ripma, met Liu through a professional business fraternity in the Kelley School of Business. When Liu pledged the fraternity, Reverman was assigned to be his tutor for a math class, but they soon found out Liu was actually much better at math, Reverman said. Liu’s intelligence and his pay-it-forward spirit led him to be many people’s mentor within the fraternity and outside of it. “Rob was very good at making people feel included and like they wanted to be there,” Ripma said. “He had a very eclectic personality, and I vividly remember him being good at making sure new people were included and felt comfortable.”

covers that aren’t the same,” she said. “We don’t have the same liberties — we can’t change the music — but we can put ourselves in it. Everybody has their different twist on it.” Hoffman’s experience with the instrument spans 18 years, and she is currently in the first year of her master’s in harp performance at IU. She explained the competition’s preparation process is different from preparing for a school recital,
“This proposal in no way is a reflection of the quality of this workforce, which is excellent,” Frank Scheffel, BPO general manager of operations, said in the release. “The unfortunate reality that we’ve lived with for a very long time is that fewer consumers want to buy the products we make here.” If the proposal is pushed through and the plant employees are laid off, GE explained in its press release all affected employees will be receiving a comprehensive benefits package. Severance pay will be based on the length of service at the Bloomington plant. Though hundreds
would lose their jobs, GE points out in its press release that since 2008, 450 employees have made it through to retirement. The company has worked to keep the Bloomington plant open and viable for the long term before, the release states, including reversing a proposal to close the plant in 2008. “This announcement is very hard to make,” Scheffel said. “This plant has been through a lot of ups and downs over the years, and our employees have always done everything we have asked of them. We have an excellent team.”
Some of the best memories Castell, Reverman and Ripma made with Liu were in the School of Public and Environmental Affairs library working on case competitions or studying all night for tests. “Those are the best times, late nights listening to music and doing work on Excel,” Castell said. “That’s where he was the happiest.” But Liu wasn’t just the type of student who stayed in all the time doing homework. He also loved hip-hop music, fashion and video games. His favorite artists included Kanye West and Future, but Ripma described him as an encyclopedia of artists with all the music he knew. He would even make his own music sometimes and his friend Duane Thompson said he was like an Asian DMX. One time Liu and Reverman went to a Waka Flocka
Flame concert. The night is one of Reverman’s favorite memories with Liu because he couldn’t think of anyone else who would pay money to see the artist with him. “The performer was moshing with everyone and we were in the pit together,” Reverman said. “It’s just not anything anyone would associate with either of us, but we had so much fun doing it.” Above all, Liu had dreams of making the world a better place, Castell said. Liu was always there to talk to anyone about their problems and was never okay with how the world could be so cruel to people, he said. “He looked forward to making a difference and changing the way things are to make it better for people,” Castell said. “We all just kind of got robbed. The world’s been kind of jipped from not getting to see what he was going to do.”
which usually consists of learning and performing five or six songs a year. Brooker-Miller said competitors must instead memorize roughly two hours of music in about two-and-ahalf years. “People come here and even if they don’t make it past the first round, the preparation, mentality and work they put in makes them come out feeling improved,” she said. “I don’t think you would push yourself as hard to learn the amount of repertoire in another situation.” The age range for the
competition is 18-32, so Hoffman still has a few more she could apply to be in should she choose to. She said the door is still open, but she’s just glad to be a part of a group that spreads harp music. “We play weddings and people say it’s the first time they’ve seen a harp,” Hoffman said. “But here we are in an area where 40 contestants are playing the harp, plus more with all the concerts we have going on with this competition.” The competition’s full schedule can be found at usaihc.org.

Ferrell and King named Athletes of the Year From IDS reports
Yogi Ferrell and freshman swimmer Lilly King were named IU’s Athletes of the Year by IU Athletics. “Yogi Ferrell and Lilly King are champions and record setters whose performances this past year make them more than worthy of joining the ranks of our legendary athletes who have earned our Athlete of the Year award,” IU Director of Athletics Fred Glass said in a press release. “Reaching our highest athletic potential and winning championships is a top priority, and these great athletes who performed spectacularly for
two of our most honored programs are tremendous representatives of our championship heritage.” Yogi Ferrell Ferrell had a successful senior season, leading IU men’s basketball to a Big Ten conference championship and a berth in the Sweet Sixteen. After finishing his career, Ferrell leaves IU as the alltime leader in games played and started with 137 games and the all-time leader in assists with 633. Ferrell is sixth in career
scoring with 1,986 points, second alltime with 272 3-point field goals made and first allLilly King time among Hoosiers with 159 3-point field goals in Big Ten conference play. Ferrell was a Wooden All-American and also earned All-American honors from the Sporting News, the NABC, USA Today, CBS Sports and the Associated Press. “Yogi is leaving here as one of the great winners,” IU men’s basketball coach
Tom Crean said in a release. “There’s really no way anybody is going to be able to take that away from him. He won two outright championships in four years. He always set a tone with his work ethic here. He set a tone with how hard he practices. He set a tone with his competitiveness.” King had a historic freshman season at IU, winning two NCAA championships while receiving many awards. King is heading to the Olympic Trials in Omaha, Nebraska, later this month. She was the NCAA Champion in the 100-meter and 200-meter breaststroke,
CSCAA National Swimmer of the Year, unanimous Big Ten Swimmer of the Year, Big Ten Champion in the 10-meter and 200-meter breaststroke, Big Ten Rookie of the Year and first team All-Big Ten. When she won the 100-meter and 200-meter breaststroke championships, King broke the American, NCAA, NCAA Meet, U.S. Open, Indiana school, Big Ten and Georgia Tech Pool records in both the 100-meter and 200-meter breaststroke. King was the first woman from the Big Ten to ever win two national championships in one year.
King also became the first Hoosier to win two championships in one year since Jim Montgomery did so in 1976. “Lilly King had one of the most impressive freshman seasons in NCAA history,” IU swimming and diving Coach Ray Looze said in a release. “The best part about Lilly is how good of a person she is on a daily basis: team oriented, competitive, and she always puts the team goals ahead of individual ones. She has a very bright future and significant room to improve. It will be exciting to see where she can take her swimming career at Indiana.”

The roller coaster ride of Th Disney sequels By Nicole Krasean K @NicoleKrasean @NicoleKras
Disney’s sequels from best to worst Toy Story 3 The Disney sequel we didnt’ expect and don’t deserve. ‘Toy Story 3’ was a sharp hit in our childhood feels that turned a bunch of teenagers and adults into whimpering messes.
Toy Story 2 Monsters University The Little Mermaid II Cars 2 This is where it all starts going downhill. ‘Cars 2’ was so unimpressive, some of you might be asking, ‘When did they make a second one?’ But don’t you worry. A third one that no one asked for is on the way to take it’s place on the scale.
The Lion King 1 1/2 Mulan II Tarzan II Bambi II IMAGES COURTESY OF MOVIESTILLSDB
Tinker Bell For a movie about the life of fairies, ‘Tinker Bell’ was sorely lacking in magic. This ‘Peter Pan’ spinoff just didn’t hit the spot with its overplayed tale of the talented outcast. But no amount of faith, trust or pixie dust prevented Disney from producing five more.
With the much-anticipated “Finding Ne Nemo” sequel, “Finding Dory,” coming c to theaters Friday, the w world is currently waiting with that all-too-familiar bated breath associated with Disney and Pixar sequels. And with good reason. Since Disney released its first full-length animated motion picture, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarves,” in 1937, the company has released 39 film sequels, follow-ups or spinoff sp s to their original films, the first being “The Return o of Jafar” in 1994. Pixar, the an animation film company that D Disney bought in 2006, has also b become a sequel machine. The company c has four sequels already out, “Finding Dory” slated for release Friday and three more sequels in the works. But what is th the actual worth of these sequels, and a is it detracting from the ma magic that is supposed to be Dis Disney? Growing up aas a 1990’s kid, I like to think I w was there for the prime Disne Disney/Pixar movie releases: “The Lion L King,” “Tarzan,” “Finding Nemo,” N etc. But I also was wa born right around the time Disney started churning out th these sequels and spinoffs, and more m often than not I found mys myself disenchanted with the recycle recycled plot lines and watered down ccharacters. The excitement exciteme I felt the first time I was intro introduced to Timon and Pumba and learned the “Hakuna Matata” Matat lifestyle faded when I sat through throu “The Lion King 1 1/2.” The The same thing happened when I watched w “Tarzan Bell,” you II,” “Bambi II,” “Tinker “ name it. I felt like there the was always going to be disappointment di associated with w Disney sequels seque and stopped watching them all wa together. to Then came “Toy “T Story 2,” the first rs Pixar sequel. I loved it. Not on only were the spirits of W Woody and Buzz upheld in the se second film, but the addition of characters like Jessie and Bullseye added to the delight and entertainment value I received from watching the film. I was convinced not all sequels were disappointments. But can we as a population rely on hitting the target 20 percent of the time? Can the children of our current generation be satisfied with these followups that leave them thinking that originality and creativity fade
and can more often than not be reproduced? I’m not well-researched on the monetary gains/losses Disney has experienced concerning its sequels. I’m sure the reoccurrence of the spinoffs can tell us Disney thinks they are worthwhile, no matter how much they might tank in the box office and tarnish our magical experiences. The Disney brand is supposed to be about creating new worlds and experiences and making magic come alive for people of all ages. By diluting that magic with reproductions of films that were perfectly fine ending where they ended, this is souring the brand for many. For example, let’s look at the “Toy Story” film series. As I said before, I felt “Toy Story 2” was a great sequel. And when “Toy Story 3” came out, it was a home run. I watched it as a high schooler who, like Andy, would be leaving for college in a short amount of time and would have to let go of parts of my childhood in doing so. The magic was there, the emotions were there, and I left the theater grateful for the nice bow Pixar had just wrapped around the “Toy Story” franchise. And now, they have announced there will be a “Toy Story 4.” I’m not excited. I’m sure they will find a way to create something decent out of this, but there was such a pleasant, definitive ending to the story of Andy, Woody and Buzz I feel now like money truly is the motive and that it’s not about the fans anymore. How could it be? Disney is a brand I want to share with my children as they grow up. I want to see them believe in things like flying with Peter Pan or becoming friends with the monsters in their closet like Sully and Mike. I want to instill in them the values of friendship, kindness and faith these films brought to me and have brought to other children all over the world. So I’m hoping “Finding Dory” is as amazing as it looks to be from the trailers. And I hope in the future, sequels are more like “Toy Story 2” and less like “Mulan II.” I don’t want to see Disney become the product of a society that doesn’t know how to get closure and doesn’t know how to let things lie. Our children deserve better than that, as do we. But I’m a Disney kid at heart, so not only do I hope for these things, but I believe.

Arts fair celebrates 36 years From IDS reports
Arts Fair on the Square returns to downtown Bloomington this Saturday. Presented by the Bloomington Playwrights Project, the 36th Annual Arts Fair on the Square will surround the Monroe County Courthouse from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The event showcases the work of 110 artists and supports local organizations, which will have booths set up during the fair. Local
performance groups provide a wide variety of entertainment throughout the day, according to a press release. Arts Fair on the Square also features two centers, which will be open for ongoing and drop-in activities. Art Center North includes Cookies and Canvas mini painting workshops, gourmet cookie-themed popsicles from Rasta Pops, face painting and more. Art Center South in-
cludes an activity for Lotus Education & Arts Foundation’s One Million Stars to End Violence, as well as a free art activity by Ivy Tech and the BPP Youth Education. The Bloomington Community Band, Windfall Dancers, Jordan River Crossing barbershop quartet and Dark Side Tribal Belly Dancers will perform Saturday. Arts Fair on the Square displays artwork of all kinds
— ceramics, wood, jewelry, sculpture, photography and glass, among others. According to a press release, “The mission of Arts Fair on the Square is to showcase fine art and craft of the highest quality, connect artists with the art-buying community and promote commitment to the arts through a variety of interactive arts experiences.” Grace Palmieri
Singer-songwriter Matt Ward grabs a nearby beer bottle. Rather than taking a drink, he uses the bottle as a slide for his guitar during a plucky guitar solo. The bottle bursts, and the crowd goes wild as beer drips down the neck of his guitar. Last Monday, the Portland-based singer who goes by M. Ward brought his band to the Bluebird in Bloomington for his first performance in Indiana. He has been touring to promote his eighth studio album, “More Rain,” which was released in March on Merge Records. What started out as a one-man doo-wop project soon turned into a mellow folk-pop record after taking more than four years to complete. Ward was accompanied by singer Jenny Lewis and her new group project, NAF, and the Brooklyn-based group Big Thief, that is fresh off its own tour. “First we were with Nada Surf, now we’re with M. Ward, and after this we’ll be with Kevin Morby,” said lead singer and songwriter for Big Thief, Adrianne Lenker. “It’s kind of been one big mashup. We’re just taking things day by day.” Lenker and Big Thief got the crowd warmed up with its folk-tinged, garage rock
tracks from its debut album “Masterpiece.” The crowd hooped and hollered as Lenker bent over her guitar for an extended, fuzzy guitar solo during the group’s performance of its song “Real Love.” A native of Indianapolis, Lenker bantered and chatted about her hometown with the affable crowd in between songs. “You kids are outta sight,” a man in the crowd yelled. “Tubular,” Lenker replied. Later in the evening, Ward emerged onstage to massive cheers. In a casual flannel and distressed jeans, he could easily be mistaken for an aloof college kid rather than a singer seasoned with more than 20 years of experience. His backing band contrarily dressed like a distinguished blues band — complete with fedoras, suit jackets and red, plaid loafers. The band’s good spirit translated to more than just their wardrobe. They opened with the upbeat energy and flourishing keyboard solos of the song “Time Won’t Wait.” Ward and the band played through a majority of their newer tracks before turning to older crowd favorites and even a few old school rock ’n’ roll covers during his encore. “We’re inspired by all the people we play with,” Lenker said. “More than just specific records, we’re inspired just by traveling and hearing stories.”
8th Annual Bloomington Comedy Festival kicks off this week at Comedy Attic From IDS reports
Starting Wednesday night, local comedians will take the stage every Wednesday night in a bid to earn the prestigious title of “Funniest Person in Bloomington.” The tournament, which
will take place at the Comedy Attic, will progress through 11 weeks of preliminary, semifinal and final rounds until a winner is declared. A big factor in the event’s success has been a strictly audience-only voting policy, said Jared Thompson, owner
of the Comedy Attic. “I can’t think of one show that hasn’t been sold out or nearly sold out,” Thompson said. “It’s the kind of event where I’d recommend getting tickets in advance.” In the tournament, 20 comedians advance to the sec-
ond round in accordance with the audience’s paper-ballot vote. That number is whittled down in the following seven weeks until just three contenders remain Aug. 24. Bloomington Comedy Festival was jumpstarted in
2009 when a standard open mic night took on a competitive twist, Thompson said. “We just decided to do something interesting,” he said. “We thought we’d have a tournament over the summer and call it Bloomington Comedy Festival—and it ended up
being so popular that we sold out every seat. “Actually we were going to close that summer, but once we decided to start a tournament, it’s been here ever since,” Thompson said. Emily Jones
Alice Wetterlund returns to the Comedy Attic By Dylan Gray dygray@iu.edu | @dylanthegray
Alice Wetterlund: she acts, she writes, she does stand-up, she improvises. Now, she’ll be performing at the Comedy Attic this Thursday night. Wetterlund is known for her work in programs like HBO’s “Silicon Valley” and her role in the hit James Franco and Seth Rogen comedy “The Interview.” This Thursday, Wetterlund will be premiering at the Comedy Attic at 8:00 p.m. for a fiveshow performance. She will begin her show Thursday and will be in Bloomington until Saturday for her last performance at 10:30 p.m. For the last few years, Wetterlund has been involved in numerous programs. Originally from Minneapolis, she found her way onto the Hollywood sets through her work as a comedian, where she regularly performs at San Francisco’s Punchline, LA’s Largo, as well as many other popular comedy clubs around the country, including the Comedy Attic. She is on a national tour right now for her comedy. Jared Thompson, owner of the Comedy Attic, coordinated the booking for Wetterlund. Given the club’s notoriety and appeal of Bloomington’s audiences for comedians, Thompson said establishing a booking was no big deal, even given Wetterlund’s recent schedule. “I came across Alice a couple of years ago and really liked what I saw,” Thompson said. “She was known a little from ‘Girl Code’ on MTV and by the time she came here last year, she had a pretty interesting role on ‘Silicon Valley’ as well. So that got people to come out.” Wetterlund made her de-
“We have a very eclectic schedule. Alice’s style and persona fit in perfectly with what we do and what audiences are attracted to .” Jared Thompson, Comedy Attic Owner
but in Indiana at the Comedy Attic in September last year. With upcoming performances like podcaster Marc Maron and the comedy troop the Whitest Kids U’ Know, the Comedy Attic is known for its eccentric acts and, for the comedy stylings of Wetterlund, Thompson said she’ll fit right it. “We have a very eclectic schedule,” Thompson said. “Alice’s style and persona fit in perfectly with what we do and what audiences are attracted to. With so much good comedy coming through the club week to week, year after year, it’s hard to stand out without being a megastar in this business, but Alice made a great impression on audiences last year.” Wetterlund herself has been “very busy” throughout this past year. She just wrapped up filming “Mike & Dave Need Wedding Dates,” a comedy releasing in a few weeks co-starring Zac Efron, Aubrey Plaza, Adam DeVine and Anna Kendrick. Also, she will play the character Kelly Grady in the upcoming TBS show called “People of Earth,” an ensemble comedy that will mark the TV reunion of latenight talk show host Conan O’Brien and actor Greg Daniels. Thompson expects the show to “run smoothly as always” and for people to have a great night of comedy.

Journalmania: A lost voice It’s complicated This past weekend in Orlando, Florida, is perhaps one of the most tragic in the city’s history. The devastation of the mass shooting at a gay bar June 12, which resulted in the death of 49 people, is one of the most tragic moments in American history. This will go down with 9/11, Pearl Harbor and the Oklahoma City bombing as a day when the country unanimously shed tears. However, what terror this weekend inflicted upon the LBGT community, it also did, to a much lesser extent, to music. Working as some sort of depraved kick-start to this hellish weekend, Kevin James Loibl traveled more than 100 miles east in order to attend what would be former “The Voice” contestant Christina Grimmie’s final concert. Grimmie opened for pop rock band Before You Exit and was signing autographs for fans a half hour after the concert. During this time, at around 10:30 p.m., Loibl approached Grimmie and shot her down before shooting himself. Shortly after, she died from the inflicted gunshot wounds, stirring fans on the internet in a storm of despair. Grimmie’s coach on “The Voice,” Maroon 5 singer Adam Levine, made a statement on Instagram shortly before her death. “I’m sad, shocked and confused,” Levine said. “This just isn’t fair.” Celebrities also spoke out about the violent death on Twitter. “I’m stunned and disgusted and heartbroken that we lost that sweet little girl,”

country singer and “The Voice” judge Blake Shelton tweeted. “Christina Grimmie was such a kind, generous person, and so talented,” author John Green tweeted. “What a light has been taken from the world.” The strongest reaction yet came from Selena Gomez, who was close friends with Grimmie since the beginning of her career. It was actually Gomez’s mother Mandy Teefey who discovered Grimmie even before she became a contestant on “The Voice.” After hearing Grimmie’s cover of Céline Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On,” Teefey and her husband, Brian, contacted the 14-year old singer and became her managers. Through this, Grimmie and Gomez formed a lasting friendship, touring and make television appearances together. During her concert
last Saturday, Gomez broke down in tears and dedicated her songs “Nobody” and “Transfiguration” to her friend. “I don’t really understand how this really happened,” she said. Grimmie began her music career on YouTube under the username zeldaxlove64. In 2014, she auditioned for “The Voice” with a cover of Miley Cyrus’ “Wrecking Ball.” Within the first 20 seconds, before the chorus even began, three of the four judges were already won over. And who could blame them? Her voice had the power of Janis Joplin, the attitude of Pat Benatar and the emotion of Stevie Nicks. It’s not every day the world encounters someone with such a gorgeous trifecta of talent. Grimmie was more to her fans than just another finalist on a reality TV talent show. Her adoration for
video games and support for her breast-cancer-fighting mother made her more than just some musical figurehead – she was one of us. Which only makes this needless murder all the more confusing for fans, music lovers and artists alike. I will never understand the true motives behind assassinating artists. Grimmie’s murder makes as much sense as the murders of John Lennon, Selena and Dimebag Darrell. Perhaps, to paraphrase Don McLean, this world was never meant for those as beautiful as them. I never considered myself a deeply religious person, but if there is a heaven, then we already know Grimmie secured a spot in its choir of angels. Austin Faulds afaulds@indiana.edu @a_faulds9615
It’s been an interesting year for Nick Jonas. His latest album, “Last Year Was Complicated,” follows Jonas as he navigates a breakup with his ex-girlfriend Olivia Culpo. The relationship lasted for a reported two years, before ending in 2015. It’s been described as “R&B-leaning,” but officially categorized as pop, which is as close to accurate as I can pin down. Nick Jonas is straddling genres, sometimes successfully, other times, less so. “Last Year” opens with “Voodoo,” where he poses the question “Fakin’ the rush / Is almost like callin’ it love / So why are you callin’ it love?” This song sets the tone for the entire album. Jonas questioning the authenticity of the relationship, unpacking how it broke down and the fallout that followed. In the end, last year wasn’t complicated enough, I guess. The album feels like I’ve heard it all before. “Last Year” sounds surprisingly similar to his last album, the self-titled sophomore release, “Nick Jonas.” Singles “Chains” and “Close” could have very well been back-to-back tracks, just with different themes. A simple before and after. And what’s more, is with lyrics like “So I’ll never get over / Never get over not getting under you,” I still have to work to reconcile the images of him from those days singing “Mandy” with that of a man who drinks, has sex and uses language that you wouldn’t expect of a minister’s son. All things adulthood is often marked by.
And thus presents one of many problems with emerging from child stardom: the desire for many of these celebrities to shatter all illusions of Disney purity. But the thing about it, Nick, we’ve been there since the beginning. We were there since you released “Dear God.” We were there when you were diagnosed with diabetes We were there when you rocked the curly fro and skinny jeans and when you started wearing your purity ring. And we are never, ever going to forget it. Perhaps my complaint is that this whole thing feels forced. The whole image — past the album and into his team’s entire marketing strategy — cultivated to make him seem more mature. Like, I don’t know, someone we could mistake as an honestto-God sex symbol. But ultimately, Nick’s music just isn’t that fun anymore. And I think I just miss when it was. Maybe I’m projecting onto Nick my hesitation about growing up, about leaving everything that was simple in the past. I mean, we’ve more or less grown up together, Nick and I. Or maybe the album really is as underwhelming as I thought. But the thing is, if this album is his graduation to adult superstardom, I can’t say I think he earned his degree.
