LEADING THE PACK IU divers take top spots at Olympic trials Saturday
The IU Board of Trustees approved the $53 million renovation of Memorial Stadium on Friday. The project will enclose the south end zone to create a building to house the IU Excellence Academy. “We are not a building in search of mission,” IU Athletic Director Fred Glass said to the board. “We are a program and mission in search of a building.” The building is estimated to be completed in August 2018 and construction will begin after this year’s football season. The athletic department will completely fund the project from fundraising and other revenue streams. The academy is going to be part of the “circle of excellence” located at Memorial Stadium that includes the Wilkinson Performance Center and the Shuel Academic Center. “I think there’s no place in intercollegiate athletics where in one place on the athletics campus that we have access to those kinds of facilities to support our student-athletes,” Glass said. There also will be stadium renovations related to improving the stadium seating and restroom and concession accessibility for people with disabilities. Also, the public address

IU junior diver Michael Hixon and his synchro partner Sam Dorman had been training together just two months when they stepped on the board for their first dive Saturday morning at IUPUI Natatorium. In their first meet together the stakes were higher than ever — a spot on the United States Olympic team. The pair kept a lead through most of the preliminary and semifinal rounds and finished at the top of the pack, going into Wednesday’s finals. Dorman said he doesn’t even look at the scoreboard throughout the day, instead focusing on each individual dive. “I think we just tried to stay in the same groove we were in this morning,” he said after the semifinal round Saturday night. “We just did one dive at a time focusing on that dive, not the outcome.” With a combined score of 871.53 — through two rounds of six dives each — Hixon and Dorman have a comfortable edge on the second-place team. That team, of Troy Dumais and Kristian Ipsen, were likely the favorites to make it to Rio this year. They represented the U.S. with a bronze metal in London’s 2012 Olympics. Hixon and Dorman don’t see themselves as the underdogs, though. “We’ve been training hard and I think we proved that today,” Hixon said.

The Payton Brothers perform during the Taste of Bloomington event Saturday.
Bloomington’s biggest projects each year. The Taste is organized by a large board of about 30 people who meet once a month throughout the year in order to organize the event. Most of the board members are local Bloomington entrepreneurs and civic leaders. One board member said each member brings his or her own strengths to the table. The
organization of the event also takes communication and a lot of emails sent back and forth. The Taste has many layers that need to work together in order to form a cohesive operation. One of the most crucial aspects of an event this large is the security. More than 50 security members were employed this year, many of whom were from the Bloomington

A makeshift village of white tents encircled the Monroe County courthouse Saturday. Under the shade of each tent, artists greeted passersby and took an array of questions. Of the 110 artists present, each had been pre-approved by the Bloomington Playwrights Project, which is largely responsible for coordinating the fair every summer. Artistic mediums ranged from handmade jewelry to wind sculptures, and the crowd was well mixed: parents guiding children to various activities around the square, IU students browsing booths and retired couples stopping to make conversation. Charlie, Bloomington’s iconic red parrot, was also in attendance. At the Kids’ Art Center station, adult volunteers monitored children as they crafted “pet rocks” with markers and googly eyes. Middle school teacher Tina Goodlander helped out for much of the day and watched once-hesitant children become more talkative as their animals of choice materialized. “I attend Bloomington Playwright plays, which are awesome and so moving, and I thought it would be fun to volunteer,” Goodlander said before turning to a young girl. “Hey! You want to come make a pet rock with us?” BPP — Bloomington’s nonprofit with a focus on new plays — quickly reached volunteers in an email to its supporters, Goodlander said. IU student Emily Liu was also volunteering at the Pet Rock station. “With just simple stones, these kids can combine activity with imagination,” she said. “It’s nice to see.” For adults, activity options included more advanced crafts such as origami stars and painting instruction. Volunteer Tom Faulkner from the Lotus Education and Arts Foundation guided small groups through origami steps as part of the “One Million Stars to End Violence” project, in which stars are folded and collected from across the globe to create massive displays of “courage and light.” “The idea is that each person makes a star to put back into the sky, to help shine light into darkness,” Faulkner said. “In the U.S. there are only three cities participating, including Bloomington. We agreed to make 10,000 by next summer. After today, we’ll be well over 2,000.” Amidst the tutorials, artists — some from as far away as Michigan’s

Taste of Bloomington takes over downtown Thousands poured into the Showers Commons on Eighth and Morton streets this past Saturday to celebrate the annual Taste of Bloomington. People packed in shoulder to shoulder in order to enjoy the music and sample local food, both new and old. The Taste took over all of the Commons as vendors peddled their various foods and drinks in several white tents across the event space. The event was comprised of more than 30 vendors, many of whom are local Bloomington businesses and restaurants. Throughout the course of the day, thousands flocked to the commons in order to get a taste of the many diverse genres of cuisine Bloomington has to offer. “Everything has run totally smooth and people have had a really good time,” said Cindy Kinnarney, one of the operation directors for the Taste. “I’ve had people comment what a great event it is and for a great cause.” The cause is that of the Hoosier Hills Food Bank, a charitable organization that provides three million pounds of food annually to other nonprofits that help serve people in need and with low incomes. Part of the proceeds from the event benefit the food bank. Another portion of the proceeds goes to the Community Kitchen of Monroe County, which provides food directly to those in need. The event happens annually and is one of the city of

In addition to approving $53 million worth of renovations for IU sports complexes, the IU Board of Trustees approved the University’s operating budget for the 2016-17 fiscal year. IU Acting Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Joan Hagen presented the budget plan to the trustees June 17, according to an IU release. The plan calls for spending $3.4 billion on IU campuses across Indiana — a 3.7-percent, or $122.2 million, increase from last year. The budget also aimed to keep students’ financial well-being in mind by continuing the freeze on undergraduate resident student
tuition at IU-Bloomington for the second year in a row. The operating budget made room for faculty and professional staff ’s salary increases of up to 2.5 percent, according to the release. Broken down, staff can earn up to a 1 percent baseline increase and a 1.5 percent increase for merit. Minimum wage rate for temporary employees was also raised to $10.15 per hour. The operating budget covers many of IU’s general costs, including employee salaries and benefits, energy and utility costs, and planning for strategic initiatives, according to the release.

Robin Groomer, a professional who works to ensure financial support for children, was among 12 people honored for their work in the child support industry June 16. Groomer was the only award recipient from Monroe County and was recognized with the others at the 2016 Indiana Child Support Conference in Merrillville, Indiana. This year’s conference marked the 40th anniversary of the federal child support program, according to a press release from the Indiana Prosecuting Attorneys Council, and 627 Indiana child support workers were present. Groomer won the Indiana Prosecuters’ K.I.D., or Kudos for Inspiration and Dedication, award for her 10-year service in the industry and her ability to jump on any problem or project, according to the release.

Student veteran recognized for service By Jonah Chester jbcheste@indiana.edu
IU student Nick Marsh was recently awarded the Tillman Military Scholar award. Tillman, who is currently pursuing a master’s degree in medical physics, served two tours of duty in Afghanistan as a combat medic with the National Guard. Marsh, who grew up in Washington, Indiana, began his academic career at IU in the fall of 2009. “I actually only applied to University of Evansville,” Marsh said. “And then in June I decided I wanted to go to a bigger university ... so I applied to IU in June, right before school started.” It was in 2010 he enlisted in the National Guard and was deployed to Afghanistan. “I didn’t ever expect it to be a big part of my life,” Marsh said.
Marsh’s first deployment began without very much notice. He was working at the Muscatatuck Urban Training Center in 2011, after finishing his initial training. He was working with a company of combat engineers, when he told the commander if he needed another medic, Marsh was willing. Marsh is one of five IU students to have received the honor of being named a Tillman Scholar since the program was founded in 2008. For 2016, a total of 60 students across the nation received the scholarship, which awards $1.8 million to aid in continuing their secondary education. The Pat Tillman Foundation was formed in honor of the NFL player of the same name. Tillman served as the safety for the Arizona Cardinals until the terror attacks
of Sept. 11. Tillman then proceeded to put his football career on hold in order to enlist in the armed forces, where he was killed in action in Afghanistan in April of 2004. The scholarship was designed to aid former veterans entering into a secondary or post-secondary education program. The scholarship aids in study-related expenses, such as tuition, fees and books. The scholarship also includes a living stipend. Marsh serves at the office of veteran affairs at IU whenever he is not working on pursuing his medical degree. There, he aids in a program known as Peer Advisors for Veteran Education, a program that provides a point of contact in the form of a mentor for veteran students. He also serves as the vice president of the Student Veterans of America chapter at IU.
Marsh said one issue that student veterans particularly face is a feeling of isolation. “Student-veterans often times don’t come to IU with a support network,” Marsh said. “A lot of service members serve one or two contracts and then come right to school.” Marsh said while a lot of student veterans are resourceful, some issues could be alleviated if these veterans had a community to rely on. Marsh said he hopes to become an oncologist after receiving his master’s degree and hopes to serve at a veterans affairs hospital in order to aid and give back to veterans. “I kind of wanted to get away from direct patient care,” Marsh said. “And I’m very interested in the physical aspects of treating patients.”

A pair of studies led by IU researchers provide new evidence that when it comes to evolution, the testes might play a key role. The research, led by Kimberly Rosvall, assistant professor in the IU College of Arts and Sciences’ Department of Biology, was conducted in two subspecies of dark-eyed junco, a type of American sparrow. The white-winged junco, or Junco hyemalis aikeni, is found in the United States in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The slate-colored junco, or Junco hyemalis carolinensis, is from the Appalachian Mountains in the state of Virginia. The first is larger and more aggressive, the other is smaller and more docile, according to an IU press release. The first paper compares the subspecies in their expression of enzymes that make testosterone within the gonad. The second paper investigates how the subspecies’ gonads differ in the expression of stress hormone receptor genes, which are known to lower testosterone, according to a press release. Rosvall and colleagues conducted their research by studying the testes of the two subspecies in the wild and in captivity. In the case of the South Dakota juncos, the results suggested the brawnier birds’ gonads simply had more abundant testosterone-producing machinery. When the researchers
treated the birds with a testosterone-stimulating hormone, the South Dakota birds were able to make more testosterone faster and keep it elevated longer, according to a press release. “An animal that keeps testosterone elevated for longer should have greater expression of these testosterone-mediated characteristics,” Rosvall said in a press release. In the second study, Rosvall and colleagues found a supplementary cause for lower testosterone levels in the Virginia juncos. The smaller birds’ testes showed higher levels of stress hormone receptors, known inhibitors of the production of testosterone, according to a press release. The mechanism by which testosterone results in different traits involves hormone receptors found in the brain and body. When testosterone binds to these sites, it affects the expression of genes that influence characteristics such as behavior, body size and plumage, according to a press release. “At the genomic level, you can really see a significant difference between these big, sexy juncos and their smaller, less aggressive cousins,” Rosvall said in a press release. “Because we still saw some of these differences in males that we captured as juveniles, our research suggests that these differences in the gonad are genetic, or programmed very early in life.”

I have nothing but good things to say.” However, for glassblower Abby Gitlitz and photographer Khabrim Diallo, the fair could have been better attended. “It’s a lovely day and folks were nice, but I will say crowds are a lot more sparse than last year,” Gitlitz said.

DIVING
YIXIE WU | IDS
Diver Darian Schmidt trained in Bloomington for the past week, and left June 14 for Olympic trials in Indianapolis.
Darian Schmidt ready for the Olympic Trials By Andrew Hussey aphussey@indiana.edu @thehussnetwork
Darin Schmidt began his diving career at the IU Outdoor Pool. Messing around with his gymnast father, Darian started to get a feel of the sport that would bring him success, but didn’t join a diving team until high school. “I was really small and my parents weren’t well off financially,” Schmidt said. “I knew I needed a scholarship and I was too small for the other sports. So I gave diving a try.” During his sophomore year of high school, Schmidt got a call from Mark Lenzi, a two-time Olympic gold medalist, who wanted him to dive for Indiana Dive Club. Schmidt said he knew if Lenzi asked, he had to say yes. But the transition to diving wasn’t always easy. “It’s definitely different getting used to the form because it’s so unique,” Schmidt
said. “It’s not like you just run fast and you’re good at it like some other sports. I definitely smacked a lot when I first started.” Diving is an individual sport within a team, which puts a lot of pressure on the individual. “The training is the easy part,” Schmidt said. “The mental part is the hardest part. Competing is a whole realm of emotions and nerves that are hard to prepare for until you’ve done it. Overcoming that and performing like you do every day in practice is the hardest part.” Schmidt beat the mental drain of diving and had success diving in high school. It got him his scholarship. The decision to choose IU was easy since he grew up in Bloomington and both his parents went to IU. Once he arrived in Bloomington, his diving took off and Schmidt credits his coaches for helping him become a world-class diver.
“My first coach at IU was Jeff Huber,” Schmidt said. “He really instilled in me my character and what it takes to become a champion as well as great diving techniques.” Huber retired and was replaced by Drew Johansen. “Drew came in and instantly we clicked,” Schmidt said. “We got along really well and he brought in a whole new set of techniques. Immediately I knew this was the guy I needed to dive for to get to that next level.” After graduating from IU in 2015, Schmidt competed at the World Championships in Russia. “That was the best and most rewarding feeling I’ve ever had making that team,” Schmidt said. “I had been very close the past couple years to getting on that world stage.” However, Schmidt didn’t achieve the level of success he wanted when he failed to advance to the semi-finals. Schmidt said he still learned
from being around all the top divers and feeling the pressure of the moment. With the Olympic Trials ongoing, Schmidt is competing for a spot to showcase what he learned in Russia. “I’ve been very nervous the past few months just thinking about it,” Schmidt said. “I’m just excited now. This is what I’ve been training for the past 10 years — this opportunity to be a contender and hopefully make the Olympic team.” Schmidt said making the Olympic team drives him and is what is on his mind during hours and hours of training. His training is still in Bloomington with IU as he trains under Johansen. Even though he’s training to get to Rio, it’s not too different from college. “It’s not necessarily a whole lot different,” Schmidt said. “We do a little bit different stuff and at different times, but for the most part, it’s similar to the way I dived in college.”

Schmidt does about 20 hours of water training every week to work on his diving skills. He also works on strength and conditioning in the weight room. At the dry land facility, he practices his take offs on the trampolines and wood boards. That training is all to wear
the red, white and blue. “Going to Rio would mean the world,” Schmidt said. “A lot of people ask me ‘If you could do one thing in your life, what would it be?’ and that’s making the Olympic team for me. It would be the greatest achievement I could do.”
Michael Hixon Year: Junior Events: 3-meter synchro, 3-meter individual Bio: Hixon transferred to IU after his freshman year at University of Texas, where he won national titles in both the 1-meter and 3-meter springboard. He’ll compete with Sam Dorman of Miami Diving for a synchro spot in Rio.
Darian Schmidt Year: Graduated in 2014 Events: 3-meter individual Bio: A Bloomington native, Schmidt finished third on the 3-meter springboard his senior season. He most recently competed internationally at the World Aquatic Championship in Kazan, Russia.
Amy Cozad Year: Graduated in 2013 Events: 10-meter synchro, 10-meter individual Bio: Cozad placed first at Nationals last December in both individual and synchro 10-meter events.

Jessica Parratto Year: Redshirt sophomore Events: 10-meter synchro, 10-meter individual Bio: Parratto, like Hixon, opted to redshirt last season in order to train for the Olympics. She has several international and national titles to her name.
Lacey Houser Year: Redshirt senior Events: 3-meter individual Bio: Houser, who transferred to IU from Miami, became an All-American this past season. This is her second time competing at the Olympic trials.
Josh Arndt Year: Junior Events: 3-meter individual Bio: Arndt finished fourth in 3-meter this past season at the NCAA Championships. He was also named an All-American.
BASEBALL
Despite going undrafted, Bell ready to start pro career By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94
He had more or less given up on signing with an MLB team. A few days after not being chosen in the draft’s 40 rounds, pitcher Evan Bell looked elsewhere to prolong his baseball career, signing with Joplin Blasters. The Blasters are a team in the American Association of Independent Professional Baseball. It wasn’t what he envisioned, but it was something. But then his dream snapped back into place. After two days and pitch-
ing one inning for the Blasters, he received a call from the Chicago White Sox, who were suddenly interested in signing the 6-foot-8 right-hander. “They had their eye on me for the draft but it ended up not working out,” Bell said. “They didn’t even know I was playing in that league when they called me.” Joplin, Kansas, is a couple hours away from Bell’s hometown of Stillwell, Kansas, which also happened to be the site of his first game with the independent team. Then he made the drive to Joplin alongside his new teammates, watched a game that day from the dugout be-
fore receiving the call from the White Sox. So, the next morning, after one day in town, Bell packed up his belongings and left for Arizona to finalize his new contract. Bell had worked out at U.S. Cellular Field, the home of the White Sox, a couple days before the draft. But then he sat and watched every team, including the White Sox, bypass him and not receive an explanation why. Then, Bell received some help. After the draft ended, IU pitching coach Kyle Bunn went on a mission to find his Sunday starter a place in an MLB organization.
“Coach Bunn was working pretty hard after the draft for me and telling them about me and telling them that I got passed up,” Bell said. “He was working really hard for me to get me a chance somewhere and I think that paid off big time.” Now, thanks to Bunn, Bell has a chance to pursue his dream. He has with him a change up he only recently developed during his senior season. He said he needs to work on commanding that pitch better, to throw it both for a strike and a couple inches off the plate to fool hitters and entice them into swings and misses.
“My breaking ball has always been pretty consistent but I have to be able to throw more change ups for strikes and also change ups a little off the plate to get swing and misses,” Bell said. “I think that pitch is going to be big for my success going forward.” Bell calls himself someone who’s always been a competitor. He only won two games in his senior season despite a 3.36 ERA, in large part because IU’s bats seemed to go cold whenever Bell was on the mound. He competed and fought through that, and has now overcome the challenge of going undrafted. The suc-
cess rate of reaching the major leagues after going undrafted is low, but the likes of Bobby Bonilla, Kevin Millar and Kevin Mitchell have done it. Mitchell won an MVP award. Both Bonilla and Millar are World Series champions despite their draft day slights. It will take a lot for Bell to join that list, but in the short time he’s been with the White Sox he already thinks he’s carving out a place for himself. “In the few days here, in bullpens and working with the coaches, it’s been really good and I’m locating better now and I think I can help any level win,” Bell said.
Some Hoosiers sign contracts while others are still waiting By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94
Since last weekend’s MLB Draft, multiple Hoosiers have signed contracts officially making them professional baseball players. Left-handed pitcher Caleb Baragar was the first Hoosier drafted in the ninth round, and he was also the first Hoosier to sign a deal.
The Giants signed Baragar for an undisclosed amount, but did give him a $20,000 signing bonus. The amount is well-below what others drafted in his position receive since Baragar is a senior, giving him no negotiating leverage. The next Hoosier to sign will never technically be a Hoosier. Skylark Szynski, a high-school pitcher from Penn High School in Misha-
waka, Indiana, signed with the Oakland Athletics after being drafted in the fourth round. The contract also came with a $1 million signing bonus, nearly double what other players drafted in the same position as Szynski receive. Left-handed pitcher Kyle Hart has still yet to sign a contract, but as a senior there isn’t much drama awaiting Hart
or IU. Instead, the drama lies with the looming decisions of junior pitcher Jake Kelzer, junior outfielder Craig Dedelow and high school outfielder Jack Suwinski. Kelzer, drafted in the 18th round by the Philadelphia Phillies, and Dedelow, drafted in the 34th round by the Pittsburgh Pirates, have the option of returning to IU for
another season. But that extra season might be the reason why both decide to sign with their respective teams. Since they can both threaten to leave, they might receive larger signing bonuses. If they return, they do have the possibility of improving their draft position, but they will lose all leverage when it comes time to negotiate next year.
Suwinksi is in a similar situation. As a high schooler, he might be lured by a sizable signing bonus like Szynski, or choose to improve his draft stock and ability in college. If he does choose that route though, he will be forced to play at least three seasons of college baseball, since MLB prohibits any college player being drafted before his 21st birthday.

Wetterlund makes second Comedy Attic appearance By Emily Jones @emkkjones
From Thursday night until her last performance Saturday, L.A.-based comic Alice Wetterlund delivered a solid three nights’ worth of personal anecdotes and punchlines at the Comedy Attic. Wetterlund — also known as Carla Walton on the HBO sitcom “Silicon Valley” — made her Comedy Attic debut last September. Originally from Minneapolis and having trained at the Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theater in New York City Wetterlund has since balanced a busy career of acting and stand-up comedy. At each of her five Comedy Attic performances, no subject was off limits for the comedian: breakups, sobriety, car accidents and college recollections. Wetterlund’s style ranged from casual to astonishingly intimate, as if speaking to a close friend. “After today, I can proudly say I don’t need to be drunk to get into a car accident,” she joked. “I called my lady at State Farm, like, ‘I got in some fender benders and I wanted to know how much my insurance would be.’ He’s like, ‘They’re called accidents and it’s astronomical.’” The audience erupted. Wetterlund shared the stage with two others: 21-year-old host Mo Mitchell from Bloomington and opener Georgea Brooks, a friend and fellow comedian from Toronto. As pub food was quietly delivered to patrons, Brooks finished her routine and Mitchell welcomed Wetterlund onstage. With Brooks finishing on the subject of ex-boyfriends, Wetterlund skillfully re-opened the topic and laced a painful breakup with humor. She then transitioned to her college days in an anecdote about an ill-received Cookie Monster costume. Remarking on the character’s addiction, which she subtly held up against her own, she wondered aloud why, when “his life revolves around this one thing, he lets the crumbs fall out of his mouth.” The audience erupted again. Between her shows on Friday night, Wetterlund reflected on her experience at the Comedy Attic and why she opted to return. “This club is a bit different than other clubs — I don’t know if people are aware, but the Comedy Attic creates an experience that’s really best for both the au-

dience and the comedian,” she said. She said she also likes the club for their no-pressure atmosphere. “Also, they don’t try to sell expensive drinks and push that on you,” she said. “A lot of comedy clubs throughout the nation have this pressure to get drunk, but Comedy Attic puts the focus back on the comedian.” Wetterlund will appear in the upcoming comedy film “Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates” alongside actors Zac Efron and Anna Kendrick. She also expects to continue her work with “Silicon Valley,” a series in which six young men found a startup company in Silicon Valley and reluctantly hire Wetterlund’s character, a genius hacker named Carla. Wetterlund has previously appeared in Seth Rogen’s politcal-satire film “The Interview” and MTV’s “Girl Code,” a series exploring the code of conduct between women.

‘Murder Ballad’ bring romance, pop rock to the stage By Dylan Gray dygray@iu.edu | @dylanthegray
“Murder Ballad,” the rocky popera of passion and revenge, began its two-week run this past weekend through Bloomington’s Cardinal Stage Company. “Murder Ballad” is 90 minutes of nonstop pop rock action. It tells the story of a love triangle between three young adults in New York: a past lover, a husband and a wife stuck between love, lust and her family. This trio is performed by Will Skrip, Donterrio Johnson and Shaina Vencel, respectively, and plays on the balladic tradition of revival and betrayal. The ballad comes from oldworld Europe, in the days of oral storytelling and simple, catchy melodies. According to the musical’s playbill, ballads “are poems with accompanying melodies of generations.” In modern context, the ballad has transformed itself to mean anything from “Mary Had a Little Lamb” to “Purple Rain.” “Murder Ballad” brings along
newcomer Annelise Cepero, a BFA Musical Theater senior at Montclair State University in New Jersey. Her character for the majority of the musical remains apart from the trio’s actions, giving sardonic asides to audience as the events of the play unfold. Her character relishes in the drama of the story and provides an omniscient voice over the story as she sings from the shadows of the action. The Cardinal Theatre is located in the Waldron Auditorium on the second floor of the Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center. Audience members are welcome to peruse through the first floor art gallery, which is currently exhibiting sculptures for the 20th anniversary of the Indiana Limestone Symposium, after which audience members ascend the grand stairwell to the theatre above. Upon entering, patrons pick a table of their choosing and are welcome to the theater’s bar, which transforms into a centerpiece for the musical. Rachel Glago is the marketing coordinator at Cardinal Stage
Company. She has worked at the Cardinal for the last 10 months and said she is excited to present this tried-and-true story. “It’s an immersive theater experience,” Glago said. “The audience feels like they are actually in the world of these characters. To do this, we’ve turned the theatre into a working bar so that the audience experiences the show from tables and chairs that are all over the space, allowing the actors to move seamlessly through the audience.” The actors spend the 90 minutes weaving in-and-out between the tables at the theater. The audience members on the floor level were able to see the actors singing and performing inches from them. “I find having the audience so close is exhilarating,” Johnson said. “In theater, we have the ‘15foot rule.’ Everything looks different from the audience’s perspective 15 feet away. But in this case, they are right there with us. We can’t hide. We have to share the experience with them.”

“Murder Ballad” is scheduled to perform until July 3, with shows happening through the weeks. The Ivy Tech Waldron Arts Center is located at the corner of Walnut and Fourth streets. “This play offers a unique theatre experience that includes live
pop-rock music with an onstage band of local artists and a fullyfunctioning wine and beer bar,” Glago said. “It really feels like your out for a night on the town rather than at a musical theater production. It’s really different in that way.”

ILLUSTRATION BY AUSTIN VANSCOIK | IDS
EDITORIAL BOARD
Texas valedictorians declare illegal status WE SAY: The U.S. benefits from illegal immigrants, we might as well give them citizenship Mayte Lara Ibarra and Larissa Martinez each graduated from different high schools in Texas earlier this month. They were both valedictorian. Lara graduated with a 4.5 GPA and Martinez with a 4.95. Lara donned 13 cords and medals and Martinez celebrated the completion of 17 AP courses during her high school career. They each have a full ride to their respective universities. Lara will be attending the University of Texas at Austin and Martinez will go to Yale. And to top it all off,
each is an undocumented immigrant. We at the Editorial Board believe it is a privilege to have these two graduates on our soil and attending American universities. After proclaiming their immigration status proudly, Lara via Twitter and Martinez in her graduation speech, both women received a slew of backlash online. Users, which included some parents of fellow graduates, claimed Lara and Martinez were taking advantage of the system. We believe these two women will make more
meaningful contributions to the system they’re supposedly taking advantage of than most natural-born citizens will or could ever hope for. The Washington Post reported only .03 percent of all college attendees receive full scholarships, which means they have already accomplished more than the vast majority of students. We believe they are an invaluable part of our nation. We offer both women our deepest congratulations on such outstanding achievements. For all of the furious conservatives fuming in
or otherwise, contribute roughly 0.2 percent to the GDP. They create businesses, sustain Medicare and Social Security, pay billions of dollars in taxes and each immigrant contributes an average of $120,000 more in taxes than they receive in public benefits. The report also said higher immigration is associated with lower crime rates, immigrants are less likely to be incarcerated and the cost for detaining undocumented immigrants is enormously high. Combined with the vari-
their seats while reading this heartfelt congratulations, we offer you a report by the American Immigration Council, titled “Giving the Facts a Fighting Chance: Addressing Common Sense Questions on Immigration,” which you can find on its website. In this report, you’ll find all of the hateful rhetoric that frequently masquerades as facts being debunked by real research as opposed to the emotionally charged dribble that makes up the majority of anti-immigration slander. For example, the report found immigrants, legal
ous economic benefits of adding immigrants to our citizenry, it would be cheaper to legalize them. We would also like to remind those natural-born citizens who insist on dehumanizing undocumented immigrants, denying them a fair opportunity to immigrate and deporting them that you put in zero effort for your citizenship. Given the hysteria surrounding illegal immigrants and the rise of xenophobes like Donald Trump, we fear Lara and Martinez are worthy of more than American citizenship in this climate.
A SLICE OF SOMETHING REAL
FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH
Menstrual hygiene products should be free all around the world
Debunking the need for conspiracy theories in the wake of tragedy
Contrary to the popular baelief of many governments around the world, tampons and feminine hygiene products are not luxury items. Considering sanitary products for menstrual periods are essential to women’s health and are recognized as a human right by the United Nations and Human Rights Watch, governments all around the world should take note and follow suit. Tampons and all feminine hygiene products should be free. For all female-bodied people that experience menstrual periods, having a menstrual cycle means having unavoidable expenses and complications surrounding the control of that menstrual cycle. For example, for females in countries where menstrual products are not available or too expensive, many young women have to miss school because they have no way to control their menstrual flow. The United Nations Children’s Emergency Fund estimates 10 percent of women in Africa miss school due to having their period, leading to an increased dropout rate for women. A study in Bangladesh reported 73 percent of women who work in factories miss an average of six working days, or six days of paid work, because of their
periods. Not having access to menstrual products is even graver than missing school or work. Many women get severe vaginal infections from using menstrual products that are not sanitary. This is ridiculous. There is no reason for these women to miss work or school or risk bacterial infection all because of the cost of menstrual products. If you think these events are only happening in poorer countries, America is here to prove us all wrong. Free access to menstrual products for low-income women is pretty much non-existent and food stamps won’t cover it, so many women sell their food stamps to pay for menstrual products. That literally means women are forgoing food, in order to afford menstrual products. Women in United States’ prisons are forced to go without menstrual products altogether more often than not. Women in the United Kingdom are forced to pay a 5 percent tax on tampons, which are actually labeled as “luxury” items, while men’s razors are not. While the U.S. does not outright label menstrual products as luxury items, these products are not exempt from sales tax in most states. There are only a handful of states that either

have no sales tax or do not tax menstrual products. But breast pumps, vasectomies and artificial teeth are all considered things that should be tax exempt when none of those things are as vital to health as menstrual products. Making feminine hygiene into big business is like making women pay for having a period. Adding tax onto that cost is just like adding insult to injury. Menstrual care is an essential to health care for women and should be in the same vein as birth control. Women should not have to worry about how they are going to control the flow of their periods when they have to live in the world and worry about so many other aspects of life. Yes, having a period will take up significant mental space with or without free menstrual products. However, women will have to worry less about spending so much money on menstrual products if those products are labeled as essential to female human function and become free. rcm2@umail.iu.edu @RachelCMiller1
If there was anything positive to be taken from last weekend’s Orlando terror attacks, one need not look further than the outpouring of support for the victims’ families and the United States’ LGBT community. Landmarks from the IU Auditorium to the Eiffel Tower were illuminated with rainbow colors in a display of solidarity. As we try to make sense of the tragedy and fathom what could possibly cause such hatred to motivate someone to carry out a crime so heinous, some place blame with lax immigration policy, the legality of assault weapons or President Obama himself. As is the case with nearly every story broken by the mainstream media, there are conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theories are a divisive issue on which many people gravitate to extreme ends of the spectrum and few hold moderate views. Proponents label deniers submissive “sheeple” while opponents see conspiracists’ skepticism as a form of disrespect. Orlando is no different than Sandy Hook, 9/11 or Paris in that people, in surprisingly high numbers, have concluded the attack was conducted or made possible by some clandestine force. Popular Orlando theories posit there were multi-
ple gunmen present at Pulse nightclub and one man was blocking exit doors. While law enforcement officials have reiterated there was a lone gunman, the Washington Post reported they have not yet provided thorough evidence to debunk these claims. With time, evidence and eyewitness accounts will crop up to support or deny the Orlando theories. In the meantime, before condemning or accepting the idea of a conspiracy theory, we must analyze what leads people to propagate such ideas and what they hope to achieve. Dutch social psychologist Jan-Willem van Prooijen has found that, when faced with uncertainty in an event or a lack of substantial proof, people turn to conspiracy theories. “The sense-making leads them to connect dots that aren’t necessarily connected in reality,” van Prooijen said to TIME. Though many theories are little more than a mechanism used to cope with things scary and unknown, history suggests that we would be unwise to write off all conspiracy theorists as heretics. Between the FBI’s COINTELPRO initiative, in which the bureau blackmailed Martin Luther King, Jr., with a tape implicating him in an extramarital affair, and the Watergate scandal, it’s

clear governments can and do have agendas that extend beyond the boundaries of law. At the same time, it’s tough to make a rational argument the government would commit an atrocity like 9/11. These theories have been debunked time and time again, yet people cling to them and have demonstrations at Ground Zero. It is natural to grasp for coping mechanisms in the face of such shocking actions. However, it is also important to remember while some cases turn out to be true, it is in no way the norm, and no proof has surfaced to give credence to conspiracy theories about the tragedy in Orlando. Conspiracy theories are a polarizing topic. The bottom line is that the truth lies not at the extremes, but in the middle. Skepticism is a good thing and we are doing ourselves a great injustice in blindly accepting facts without considering alternative viewpoints. But we must also be able to recognize when a conspiracy theory is just a means of comforting ourselves in the face of the unknown. dkilcull@umail.iu.edu @daniel_kilc
