IU opens season against Kansas By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali
A top-tier college basketball matchup is on tap 2,500 miles off the mainland as No. 11 IU takes on No. 3 Kansas in Honolulu in the State Farm Armed Forces Classic to start the regular season. While both teams enter with high expectations for the upcoming season, neither coach feels like his team has found its identity. IU Coach Tom Crean has talked tirelessly about how his team hasn’t been able to implement as much of the offense as he’d like at this point in the season, but battling the Jayhawks will help the Hoosiers as they move forward. “I’m not big on measuring-stick games,” Crean said. “But I think when you play against Kansas you’re going to learn a lot about where you’re at going into the rest of the month and into December when you play a team like that this early.” The Jayhawks may have the edge in the backcourt with senior guard Frank Mason III and junior guard Devonte Graham, but the Hoosiers appear to have the upper hand in the frontcourt. The tandem of sophomore forwards Thomas Bryant and OG Anunoby has the potential to get the Jayhawks into foul trouble down low and force Kansas Coach Bill Self to motion to his bench early. Kansas fifth-year senior center Landen Lucas will be marked with the task of stopping Bryant down low. Lucas has the experience and size to stop Bryant, but beyond Lucas the Jayhawks don’t have much experience in the frontcourt. The best bet off the bench for Kansas to limit Bryant would be 7-foot freshman Udoka Azubuike. The 17-year-old from Delta, Nigeria, has shown flashes of greatness early for Kansas but is still a raw player on both ends of the floor. He fouled out in just eight minutes in the first exhibition game and picked up three SEE BASKETBALL, PAGE 6

An IU professor’s months of work to resettle refugees in the City of Bloomington isn’t done yet. EMILY MILES | IDS

The Refugee Question By Emily Miles elmiles@iu.edu | @EmilyLenetta
Anyone peering from an Indiana Memorial Union window Sept. 28 could have seen Professor Elizabeth Cullen Dunn dancing. On her way to a talk, she received word that the State Department had approved Bloomington as a resettlement site for about 60 Syrian and Congolese refugees — in the middle of a state where the governor attempted to ban those very people. She called fellow members of the Bloomington Refugee Support Network and sent a Canvas message to students in the I304: Refugees and Displaced People service-learning class. “We are now moving into Phase II — getting ready for our new neighbors to arrive!” the message read. “Your help will be so important as we get ready.” Her inbox exploded, and she never made it to the talk. That day was like redemption, the chance to do something she has wanted so badly for more than a decade of ethnographic fieldwork. With the help of her students and the community, she could make a difference. * * * A few days later, just before a Bloomington Refugee Support Network meeting, Dunn’s adopted cats Omar, Zorro and Squid — just three of the creatures to whom Dunn has given refuge — lazed about her home. It was the red brick home where 5 a.m. pulls her out of bed, where she works a while before her adopted son Aaron — one of 15 foster children Dunn has housed over the years — wakes up. It was the place to which she returns after taking Aaron to school, eight hours of classes and meetings and trying to make it to the gym. It was where she chats with her son while making dinner, supervises his homework and finally gets to her own work — grading and planning and editing her book, which the publisher wants by the end of the year. It was where she finally melts in front of the TV. Sometimes she falls asleep fully dressed, with all the lights on.
But it was not that time yet, and Dunn had a meeting to attend. Aaron asked if she would pack her recurve bow to the library for protection from the grassroots conservatives. She did not. They are not bad people, she said. They are just afraid. And that fear, she said, will dissipate when the new neighbors join the community. * * * Dunn scanned the meeting room, bright blue eyes behind subtle brown glasses. Three Bloomington Police Department officers skirted the walls. Any woman in a cotton dress or man in a pastel polo could throw the first punch and launch another scuffle, like the one that rocked a similar public forum on refugee resettlement the month before. The adversaries’ nametags did not identify them as grassroots conservatives, but generally that’s what they were. One of Dunn’s students, Courtney Veneri, shifted her slim frame from left to right at the head of the room. She had just slipped in from helping a classmate collect names and emails from those entering the night’s resource meeting and public forum. The chair of the support network, Diane Legomsky, clasped her hands. She had first approached Dunn just after the Paris bombings, explaining how she and others at Congregation Beth Shalom had formed a committee to help refugees. They wanted her help. Nine months of help later, there were no more chairs in the Monroe County Public Library meeting room. Legomsky instructed the library room to divide into their preferred subcommittees. Bodies wormed around each other like goop in a lava lamp and eventually settled. Dunn buzzed toward the table dedicated to community education. Before Dunn could sit, she had been nominated the committee chair. Dunn’s students and members of her Wednesday morning refugee-focused reading group — which Dunn hopes is the beginning of IU Refugee Studies — gravitated toward the table.

10th World’s Fare and Market Gathering offers unity to collaborate with IU Late Nite to campus after election By Jesse Naranjo jlnaranj@indiana.edu | @jesselnaranjo
The Indiana Memorial Union’s Alumni Hall will be transformed into an international bazaar Friday night for the 10th anniversary of IU World’s Fare and Night Market, a collaboration between the Office of International Services and Union Board. “It’s a great chance for both domestic and international students,” IU junior Josh Thomas said. “It provides a great opportunity for them to learn about these different cultures, interact with different students that they pass every day on campus and learn about where they come from.” The event will feature 25 booths representing international student organizations across campus and be followed by the Night Market, which is a collaboration between the normal IU Late Nite programming and the World’s Fare. Thomas is director of the spirit and traditions committee on Union Board. He said Union Board is instrumental in conducting World’s Fare every year. He said the access it has to areas of
the Union such as Alumni Hall and the Solarium and joint social media marketing are key when planning events with other offices on campus. Allison LeClere, a graduate assistant in the Office of International Services, said Union Board is what helps the event get off the ground and running. “Each year we get about 1,500 students and community members who stop by,” LeClere said. “This year we’re hoping to get even more, so it’s going to be a really big event, especially since we’re partnering with IU Late Nite.” LeClere said she thinks World’s Fare provides international students with means not only to teach others about their culture but also understand how the campus as a whole respects diversity. “Considering recent events, I think it’s important now more than ever to show international students how much they mean to our campus and how much we value them,” LeClere said. She said a difference between this event and previous World’s Fares is an absence of food at
each individual booth. This was done intentionally. “College students love food, so they’ll come, eat food and then kind of leave,” LeClere said. This year, visitors to the event will be provided with a program, on the back of which contains a small passport page. LeClere said when people visit each booth, they can get a stamp from the country that booth is representing. The stamps are redeemable for food, which will be in a separate room. According to iStart, IU’s resource website for international students, there are more than 6,000 international students on the Bloomington campus alone. They account for more than onetenth of the population. Thomas, who just won reelection to Union Board, said the face-to-face interactions that visitors to the World’s Fare will experience can generate positive dialogue about different cultures. “I really hope people come away from this event feeling more connected to the world around them and the different places and cultures that are represented on this campus,” Thomas said.

For the second night in a row, a crowd began to gather in the Fine Arts Plaza. Students held signs Thursday night including one that said “LOVE TRUMPS HATE.” A rally by the same name had occurred in the same place the day before. One girl, with a patch of rainbow stripes painted on her cheek, held a sign that read “and still, like dust, we will rise.” A group of students from the UndocuHoosier Alliance stood at the front of the crowd. The group is asking IU to declare itself as a sanctuary campus to protect undocumented students from deportation. One of their signs said “Sanctuary Campus Now.” Only one word was written on the road around Showalter Fountain: LOVE. Students, faculty and community members were invited by the dean of students to a Unity Gathering in the Fine Arts Plaza. Lori Reesor, dean of students, sent an email to all students inviting them to the event, which included speakers Provost
Lauren Robel, Vice President James Wimbush and student leaders. Robel said she has been trying to make sense of the last few days and think about the future, and there has been one thing going through her head. “We are one IU,” Robel said. “We believe in the intrinsic dignity and worth of all members of our community. We believe past our differences, past our disagreements on positions, but we don’t disagree on our common humanity. We are all IU, every one of us, full stock, no exceptions.” IU has a culture of care, is committed to diversity and inclusion and is a great place to be, Wimbush said. “I know that over the last couple of days, there are those who have felt some happiness,” Wimbush said. “For me, it’s been sadness — a deep, internal sadness.” Wimbush recited a Negro spiritual from his youth he said he remembered when he woke up. “I feel like going on, I feel like going on,” Wimbush said. “Though trials may come on every side, I feel like going on.” Before Steven Johnson, president SEE UNITY, PAGE 6

GLBT community shares thoughts on election results By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu @bemcafee24601
MARLIE BRUNS | IDS
Grant Schumacher, an undergraduate majoring in math and physics, explains a complicated math concept using equations during a meeting with his research group on Wednesday.
Math reveals natural patterns Hussain Ather sather@umail.iu.edu | @SHussainAther
Working away at equations on a chalkboard might seem as interesting as watching paint dry, but, from crystals to deoxrybonucleic acid, math is infinitely more than meets the eye. An insight into math research from undergraduates to professors reveals natural patterns and the reality of the work to the general public. Since January, an undergraduate research group at IU has studied fractals, a type of mathematical pattern that appears the same at all scales, to understand the phenomenon better. “It’s an interesting communication gap because everyone takes math,” said mathematics professor David Fisher on educating the public about mathematics. “In some sense, we’ve squandered an opportunity because people do know a little bit about this.” Communicating math to the general public, though difficult, would provide an opportunity for everyone to learn, Fisher said. The edges of a snowflake or the path of a lightning bolt, both fractals in nature, may appear jagged at any level.
From DNA to Saturn’s rings, fractals permeate nature and the fancies of mathematicians. “Fractals are usually bounded in size,” said Tristan Tager, graduate student in mathematics. “We’re making fractals that are unbounded in size.” Tager leads the group on making these unbounded fractals that extend infinitely within themselves. Extending another professor’s theorems about fractals, the group studies operations used to create fractals, said Michael Peters, an undergraduate in mathematics and physics. “We spend more of our time figuring out how to say what we wanna say,” said Grant Schumacher, another undergraduate in mathematics and physics. The students try and try again until they succeed. They’re working to put these ideas into words to publish a paper on fractals. “When you’re deeply formalizing the parts of the paper you wanna make, that’s when you go to the chalkboard and other people attack it,” Tager said. “And that’s where you’re wrong nine out of ten times.” Getting the gist of math research out to the public is
still difficult and hard to do. Math is often so difficult to communicate that researchers spend hours working in person and sometimes devote entire workshops to understanding papers, Fisher said. “Science reporting on mathematics happens only when there’s a tremendously big event,” Fisher said. Fisher cited recent mathematical breakthroughs on problems such as the Poincaré conjecture and Fermat’s last theorem. Russian mathematician Grigori Perelman solved the Poincaré conjecture, a general problem about reducing loops on spheres to single points, a decade ago. British mathematician Andrew Wiles proved Fermat’s last theorem in 1994, more than three centuries after it was proposed, and led to advances in algebra and geometry. Fisher and his colleagues recently published a paper that proved some cases of Zimmer’s conjecture, first made by Bob Zimmer, Fisher’s thesis adviser and president of the University of Chicago. “Zimmer’s conjecture is about things that are sort of like crystal patterns, but these crystal patterns are
very high-dimensional crystal patterns,” Fisher said. In this conjecture, something between a guess and a bet, mathematicians resort to abstract theory to imagine these objects in two dimensions. Plowing through equations and theory at the University of Chicago for three or four hours at a time, Fisher’s group worked through conversation. “We all had pieces of the puzzle,” Fisher said. “It was just surprising how fast it’s all come together.” Struggling to put their elusive ideas into words, the mathematicians’ work would eventually become a 40-page paper that took three years to write. “It’s one of those things that’s odd about mathematics,” Fisher said. “We knew we could prove something, but I didn’t know what statement it was going to be.” By the end of their meetings, Fisher said he knew they were going to write a paper together. Fisher acknowledged there is still much more work to be done. “We proved many more cases than anyone ever has before, but there are substantial cases that are still left open,” Fisher said.
ELECTION 2016
Women share post-election responses Sarah Verschoor sverscho@iu.edu | @sarahverschoor
The first woman ever to be nominated to run for the presidency of the United States stood before the nation delivering her concession speech. “And to all the women, and especially the young women, who put their faith in this campaign and in me, I want you to know that nothing has made me prouder than to be your champion,” Hillary Clinton said. Just an hour prior, three female IU students shared their election night stories and their lingering feelings. On Foster Quad’s third floor, freshman Haley Wilson sat with her roommate, processing the continuous stream of election results. “We were living and dying by these results,” Wilson said. Wilson went to bed. But, she was awoken by loud cheering at 2:30 a.m., and she said she wondered if Clinton had pulled out a miracle. It wasn’t until the morning that Wilson found out the truth, that the yelling she heard was for Donald Trump’s victory. “I’m feeling pretty dejected, a little physically ill and overwhelmingly said,” Wilson said. Wilson said that throughout the night, she was calling family and friends from other campuses to be in touch with loved ones during the tense night. It was her dad, in particular, a social studies teacher, that she relied on to calm
her during the long process of obtaining the results. “I was hopeful, but that’s denial,” Wilson said. “That’s the first stage of grief. Denial, anger, bargaining, I’m not at acceptance yet.” Wilson said she sees the effect the election and results have had on the campus, too. “Everyone’s been like zombies, like there was a national tragedy,” she said. “We’re all fighting the same battle. Everyone’s tired.” Freshman Molly Murphy also noticed a certain mood on campus Wednesday. “Everybody’s pissed off,” Murphy said. Murphy said while she is not politically active and did not support either candidate, she did watch the results come in on CNN. Her impression of a future Trump presidency was one of less concern. “Time will tell what he ends up doing,” Murphy said. “People are freaking out prematurely.” Rachel Cambron, a sophomore majoring in English, woke up this morning feeling stressed — really stressed. “I didn’t think this was going to happen,” Cambron said. “I am really in shock at the number of people who voted for Trump.” Tuesday night, Cambron said she sat in her apartment constantly refreshing CNN, dancing when Hillary Clinton got ahead and freaking out when Trump did. Cambron had a Spanish oral exam Wednesday morning. Before the election, she said she was wor-

ried about studying for it. But as Tuesday night progressed, Cambron said she no longer cared about the test. “This really isn’t my biggest issue,” Cambron said. “I’m a lesbian and Jewish. A majority, half the country, doesn’t agree with who I am.” One of Cambron’s concerns, too, is that Congress is dominated by one party: the Republicans. “It’s basically a one party system at this point,” Cambron said. “People don’t think its a problem and that really disgusts me.”
Despite her shock and frustration with the election’s results, Cambron said she is still optimistic. “I just want her (Clinton) to tell me everything is going to be okay,” Cambron said. “I need a hug from Joe Biden.” Clinton echoed ideas of hope for future generations of women in her speech. “And to all the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams,” Clinton said.
When senior Jacob Samples learned that Donald Trump had been elected president of the United States, it felt like a fever dream, he said. It didn’t feel real. Samples, who is gay, expressed his concerns about what the outcome of this election could mean for the LGBT community. “I just think this is going to change the course of America and democracy,” he said. “This is a turning point in history, probably for the worse.” After the election of Trump, members of the LGBT community have voiced their fears about how his presidency will affect the future of LGBT rights. While Trump did not emphasize LGBT issues in his campaign, the Republican platform includes opposition to same-sex marriage, support of conversion therapy, and support for laws regulating what public restrooms transgender people can use. Samples said he is worried that such policies, in addition to limited protections against discrimination for LGBT people, could send people back into the closet and cause an increase in violence and the numbers of suicides. “When people are upset about Hillary’s loss, it’s not just that our party lost,” Samples said. “We feel we are endangered now and feel victimized by a good portion of the American population.” Sophomore Quinn Ashley, who identifies as nonbinary and pansexual and uses they/them pronouns, said they were surprised and afraid after seeing the election results. They said they are worried that hate crimes, towards both LGBT people and other minorities, could become more prevalent now that Trump has been elected president. “Now, more than ever, we need to come together and let everyone know this is a safe space, that we’re safe here,” Ashley said. Ashley is the student facilitator for the Gender Warriors student group, and after seeing the results of the election, they sent a message to the group’s members to show support and ask them not to harm themselves. Ashley said their visibility as a non-binary individual makes them frightened of being singled out and endangered because of their identity. The policies of Vice President-elect Mike Pence from his time as governor in Indiana are also a source of concern for Ashley. In 2015, Pence signed the controversial Religious Freedom Restoration Act to make it legal for businesses to refuse service to LGBT people on religious grounds. He later signed an amendment to clarify that the law does not authorize discrimination. He has also opposed gay marriage and
non-discrimination laws for LGBT people, and he supports conversion therapy. “He’s pretty much just as bad as Trump, but he conceals it more in the public eye,” Ashley said. Director of GLBT Student Support Services Doug Bauder said his initial reactions upon hearing the results of the election were grief and despair. “I’ve been disappointed at elections in the past, but when my candidate didn’t win, I at least believed that the other candidate had some skills and an interest in the best of American culture, even though our philosophies might have been different,” he said. “I don’t believe that now.” Bauder praised President Barack Obama’s support of the LGBT community and said he predicts the Obamas will continue to have a major influence after leaving office. “He’s been the most queer-friendly president we’ve ever had,” he said. “It’s been incremental, but over an eight-year period, more progress has been made for our community because he had an open mind.” Bauder said he doubts marriage equality will be overturned, even with the appointment of a more conservative Supreme Court Justice. He said he believes there are too many allies these days for the LGBT community, both in Indiana and nationally, to allow much ground to be lost. He is choosing to hold out for hope, and he wants to create an environment in the community and on campus to encourage students to work towards justice, he said. He has not stopped believing in fairness for all people, he said. “We get hung up in thinking the only power we have is the power of the ballot,” Bauder said. “We have much more power than that. We have the power to influence people by our absolute kindness, by the words we use, by not being silent when something is said that we disagree with. We just have more power than we realize.” Ashley encouraged people to look out for each other and reach out to minorities. “We really need allyship right now,” they said. “We need all allies to come out and be supportive.” Samples said it is important for people not to become apathetic but instead to actively participate in their communities to fight discrimination. On Wednesday, Bauder had a message of hope, which he posted to his Facebook page. “In my grief, I WILL not lose sight of the fact that I still have power and privileges and a faith that I can make a difference in the world. I WILL not stop being kind and caring and passionate about issues of justice and equality. I will remember that love needs us now more than ever.”

Speaker discusses male attitude toward homosexual acts By Bailey Cline baicline@iuk.edu
Practicing homosexuality is a normal, if not vital, part of demonstrating masculinity for straight, white males, said Jane Ward, professor of gender and sexuality studies at the University of California Riverside. Ward visited IU on Thursday to talk about the ideas covered in her book, “Not Gay: Sex Between Straight White Men,” specifically surrounding how homosexuality impacts straight, white men. “I’m very interested in complicating our understanding of heterosexuality, because heterosexuality and queerness are mutually constituted,” Ward said. Ward talked about how the ideas of queerness and normativity have changed in past years. In the ‘90s, she said, it was normativity that was being analyzed. “Queerness became almost untethered from homo-
sexual sex practices, and instead, queerness became defined as resistance to regimes of the normal,” Ward said. Specifically, Ward discussed different ways in which straight, white males will participate in homosexual activity and consider it hazing, such as in the military or in fraternities. Some of the events she described included fraternity “elephant walks” and the Navy’s “crossing the line,” both of which involve males touching one another’s genitals. Ward said at first, she was repelled by these activities. At the same time, though, she said she was impressed by the imagination these men had to create such scenarios. “As these young men groped one another, they believed that they were doing something productive, something fundamentally heterosexual, masculine and white,” Ward said. She used different exam-
ples of ads on Craigslist made by straight, white males looking for sex with other straight, white males. Interviews done by 100 of these men, Ward said, revealed around 50 percent also identified as heterosexual in the interviews. Ward said that in this sense, many believe sexual contact between these straight, white men during these activities is not homosexual. Often times they are viewed as humorous or demeaning. These activities, she said, are practiced for the sake of masculinity and strengthening male bonds — particularly straight, white male bonds. Ward also said homosexuality is often an invisible and important ingredient in heterosexual masculinity. She talked about heteroflexibility, in which men ultimately identify as straight but sometimes engaging in sexual activity with other men. “My aim in this work is to offer a new way to think about heterosexual subjec-

tivity,” Ward said. “Not as the absence of homosexuality, but as its own unique mode of engaging homosexual sex, a mode that is characterized by pretense, disidentification and heteronormative investments.” She made the case that these activities may not just
be acts of bullying for young people coming into a group, such as the freshmen in a fraternity or the new recruits in a military unit, but rather desires these men usually do not follow. Tom Sweeney, a freshman attending the talk, said he believed this topic need-
ed to be given more attention. “I think that homosexual activity, especially between straight people, is something that is taboo and never discussed, but is an issue that has been very relevant to the culture for a very long time,” Sweeney said.

SOOTHING PETS Sophomore Cara Yoder pets Dixie, a therapy dog during a discussion with the Hudson Holland Scholars Program about the election Thurday.
Students and professors Across campus Wednesday responded to Donald Trump’s election as president. Jeff Park said he was surprised when Trump took leads in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania — the polls had made him expect otherwise. He’d been worried when the stocks started to drop. Now, the junior from South Korea contemplated his future. “As an international student, to be honest, I wasn’t really thinking of working in the U.S.,” Park, 23, said. “And Trump is now president, so I’m thinking I should go back to my country.” Although the polls were

wrong, sociology professor Chris Von Der Haar said she wasn’t surprised. A former manager of surveys for the CBS and New York Times poll, she’d seen a tight race coming. The presences of Gary Johnson and Jill Stein complicated predictions. The models were simply wrong — they’d failed the public, she said. “I had students in for review sessions this morning, and they were devastated,” she said. For other students, too, the results came as a surprise. Eleni Salyers, 22, and her friends — fellow Democrats — had watched together in disbelief as Trump took and maintained a lead She stayed up to watch results but eventually turned in around 1:30 a.m., she said. She was
tired. She’d gotten up early to vote for Clinton. Salyers thinks her vote mattered, she said, “but the state of Indiana is so Republican, there wasn’t a chance in Indiana.” Hunter McKenzie, a 25-year-old graduate student in second language studies, said he too was still in shock. He punctuated his sentences with nervous laughter. He thought about the election as a referendum on multiculturalism, one that ended with the people electing a man openly backed by the Ku Klux Klan. He thought about the wave of nationalist movements gaining popularity, not just here but across the globe. He thought about his Mexican-American family in California and especially
his 3-year-old cousin, Cruz, who’d grow up under a president “who has legitimized using derisive language to minorities.” Later, he’d teach his T135: Introduction to the American Experience for International Students discussion section, and he thought about what he’d say to his students from China, Malaysia and Taiwan if and when they asked questions. What would he tell them about a head of state who, as McKenzie interpreted, didn’t want some of them here? He’d spent the day trying to figure out what planet he’d woken up on, he said. “It has happened here,” he said as a final thought. “It” being what? “What they said couldn’t happen here.”

Unable to vote, students in Bloomington weigh in By Katelyn Haas haask@indiana.edu | @khaas96
Silence. Three Batchelor Middle School students sat around a table and tried to think of something they thought was positive about the election results on Tuesday. “Do you think anything good can come out of Trump’s presidency?” Ryan Bramwell, an eighth grader at Batchelor, said his first reaction to seeing the results was, “Oh, no.” “I knew something bad is going to happen,” Bramwell said. “I don’t even know. It’s Donald Trump, so something bad has to happen, that’s just how I feel.” Lauren Ladaker, an eighth grader at Batchelor, said she thinks Trump could persuade as a businessman to get what he wants done. “However, some of the things he wants done isn’t necessarily helping America.” Ladaker said. The three students all woke up the next morning with the reality of Donald Trump as their president-elect. Olivia Washington, an eighth grader at Batchelor, said she does not feel like she can take him seriously. She said she doesn’t think he is the right face for the United States. She said her mother did not like either candidate, but she thought a lot of people either did not vote or voted for one candidate so another wouldn’t win, not
because one candidate was “shining”. Ladaker and Washington both said they wish they had had a voice in this election. Washington said people just assume the only thing they have heard about politics is what they see on television. “I would look forward to voting, because then you get a say in politics,” Washington said. “Instead of just hearing your parents talk or hearing the TV, you can make your own opinions about it heard.” Lat Joor Awa Gaye, a junior at Bloomington High School South, moved to the U.S. when he was six years old from Senegal. He said the U.S. is the only thing he has ever known, and he said though he is not able to vote, it is important for young people to have a voice. Gaye grew up in New Orleans in the seventh ward. He moved to Bloomington three years ago when his mother got a teaching job at IU. He said he has visited friends in West Africa who are outraged by Trump. “Overseas, some people say, ‘Why do you even care about an election that’s not yours?’ and they say, ‘It is ours because we are black people. We are descendants of Africans.’” He said he FaceTimed his friend in Chicago when the results came out. His friend was trying to keep his cool and laugh, he said. “It was a very tense night,” Gaye said.

He said he did not believe taking to the streets to protest the results is the best idea right now. He said the people must see how this plays out in the future and see how to move on. He said it is his duty to go out and fight for what he believes in. “I’ve been here since the first grade. I learned English here. I excel academically here,” Gaye said. “This is where my life is, this is where I will always be.” Bramwell said when he has the ability to vote in the next election, he is not sure he will do it. “It’s something, like, I guess was put onto me. My grandparents don’t really care about politics, my parents don’t either,” Bramwell said. “Politics just aren’t much to me.” Ladaker disagreed. She said she felt she was not counted because of how young she is. She said she was looking forward to being able to vote. “It’s just being able to have your voice heard,” Ladaker said. Gaye said expressing a voice is important for young people. He said finding a voice through reading, through social interaction is important. He said he feels threatened by Trump and threatened by people who are compelled to vote for him. “Bigotry has become the rhetoric,” Gaye said. “It’s not just horrible political figures. Everybody is at liberty to do it now because their president now does it.”
Election results leave community divided By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman
Saad Tawfeeq was at the statewide Democratic watch party at the Indianapolis Convention Center on election night when he realized Hillary Clinton was not going to be the country’s next president. “I’m in shock,” Tawfeeq said. “I’m a little bit sad.” Tawfeeq is a volunteer and fellow with the Clinton campaign. He is also an Iraqi immigrant who came to the United States in 2009 to seek a better life. Tawfeeq said he saw his friends and girlfriend killed in an explosion right in front of him in Baghdad, which led him and his family to flee the country in 2003. The family moved to Jordan in 2004, Egypt in 2005 before finally settling in the U.S. in 2009. The U.S. is his dream home country, Tawfeeq said. When he obtained his visa, he said it was “like sugar in my mouth.” Tawfeeq said he loves the Democratic Party, and his favorite people are Clinton and Andre Carson. Since he started volunteering for the Clinton campaign in November 2015, Tawfeeq has volunteered at least eight hours a day and made more than 15,000 phone calls on behalf of the former Democratic presidential candidate. The Clinton campaign volunteers were like a family, he said. Tawfeeq said he gained two adoptive mothers from working with the campaign. Though Taweeq is Muslim and both of his adoptive mothers are Jewish, he said this is not a problem and it illustrates the love felt by everyone in the Democratic Party. “They are both like a diamond to me,” Tawfeeq said about his adoptive mothers. The Clinton campaign’s motto, “Stronger together,” is reflected in his adoptive family, he said. However, now that Donald Trump is the presidentelect of the U.S., Tawfeeq said he only feels more willing to fight for freedom. “I love this country,” he
said. “God bless America. America will never ever go down.” Nevertheless, Tawfeeq said he understands the results of the election are final. “What is done is done,” Tawfeeq said. “This is what democracy is. I will give my loyalty to any president.” Tawfeeq is currently on the waitlist for a transplant because of his kidney disease. Until he receives one, he goes to a doctor’s office three times a week for kidney dialysis. Many of the other patients are Republicans, he said. But, he said none of them have discriminated against him because of his religion or immigrant status. The day after the election Tawfeeq was at the doctor’s office when a man approached him. The man, a Trump supporter, shook Tawfeeq’s hand and said, “I just want to tell you one thing — we are all Americans.” Tawfeeq said the man thought he would be angry or sad, but Tawfeeq felt better after the interaction. “I am one with peace and love,” Tawfeeq said. “We will all rise to make America better.” Though Tawfeeq is optimistic on the national level, the division on the local level is felt strongly on the Republican side. In Monroe County, no Republicans were elected to public office. William Ellis, chairman of the Monroe County Republican party, said the local Republican Party is damaged and he would not be surprised if the party had no candidates in the 2018 election. The people of Monroe County are happy with the status quo and Democratic control, he said. “When they’re tired of the theft and the corruption, the Republican Party will be ready,” Ellis said. “But we will not waste our time and resources.” However, Ellis said he thinks the people can come together on a national level if Trump can create jobs for blue collar workers. Mark Fraley, chair of the Monroe County Democratic Party, said he is in a state of disbelief and sadness at the
results of the presidential election. However, this motivates him to fight for what the Democratic Party believes in even more. “There’s no question that we will be fighting as hard as ever, if not more so to fight back against Trump’s vision of America,” Fraley said. “It’s the least we can do for everyone who’s marginalized or discluded from this vision.” The division in the United States is not between Democrats and Republicans, he said. It is between people who have had very different experiences in the U.S. in the last few decades regarding what they accept as the American ideal. These people will need to come together and collaborate to reunite the country. “We can’t just rely on strong leadership,” Fraley said. “We have to rely on strong fellowship and rely on the ability to look at each other as potential allies.” He said this is already happening on the local level. Republicans and Democrats in Monroe County have continuously worked together for the good of the community, he said. However, Fraley said for this to happen on a national level the country would have to see a side of president-elect Trump that no one has seen before. Trump misaligns Muslims, wants to bar aspiring citizens from America’s promise of prosperity and displays gross misogyny, he said. “I’m not optimistic,” Fraley said on Trump’s willingness to change and collaborate with Democrats. “But we have to keep fighting. We have no choice but to do so.” Though Clinton lost the election, Tawfeeq said he will continue to support her and work closely with the Democratic Party to ensure the U.S. is the best country in the world. With leaders like Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama still here, the U.S. cannot be bad, he said. “Whatever happens, I will fight for this country,” Tawfeeq said. “I’ll be in the front fighting to keep this country free.”

» UNITY
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 of the Union Board, introduced the event. “Whatever you feel now, in its whole range and noise, and its similarity and its particular difference from the person next to you, is normal, and it’s your feeling to own,” Johnson said. “Recognize this unique experience in others.” Kealia Hollingsworth, president of the Black Student Union, spoke about creating a more inclusive IU community. “Marginalized communities must stand in solidarity with each other, and our allies should do the same, as we continue to fight the fight that we all know so well,” Hollingsworth said. The community must recuperate and take this time to come together to process
» REFUGEE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 city government workers and grandparents piled on. “How are you defining education?” one woman asked. “Loosely,” Dunn said. “What can I do?” School of Education grant writer Cate Racek asked. Dunn described how Exodus, which serves refugees internationally, needs $70,000 to open a Bloomington office. The number fell like an anvil. * * * As the library clock ticked into 8:15 p.m., community members opposing refugee resettlement, who had been asked to leave until the public forum portion of the night, hunkered into plastic chairs. Veneri and Dunn stood inches apart to hear one another. The student said she would have to time people’s questions and comments, and she would have to cut them off at one minute. She was nervous. “Now is your moment to shine,” Dunn said. “Do not let the microphone out of our hands. Listen to my words. Do not let it go.” Veneri promised she would keep it under control.
what this means and find strategies to keep living and thriving, Hollingsworth said. As Johnson returned to the microphone to end the event, two little boys ran behind him, prompting the crowd to laugh. Johnson quoted Stephen Colbert, saying “it’s no easier to face something with energy and vitality than with dread and morbidity, it’s only better.” After the rally, one girl posed in front of the auditorium for a picture. Her sweatshirt had the American flag printed on it. Another girl sat on a bench next to the fountain, softly playing the guitar as people began to leave. The sidewalk around her had messages written in chalk, including “love will always win. Keep your faith,” “love is always MATT RASNIC | IDS the answer” and “choose love Students stand in the front row of the crowd holding signs. The crowd gathered in the Fine Arts Plaza on instead.” Thursday evening for a unity talk sponsored by IU administration and student organizations. “Let me get a drink of water before all hell breaks loose,” Dunn called as she slid away. Returning, she squeezed between journalists to get through the door and took her seat toward the front of the room. Following a brief introduction and rules by Legomsky, hands shot into the air. A man wearing a black-andpink “Defund Planned Parenthood” shirt spoke first. He asked how Exodus had vetted the refugees differently from the European Union. He asked for a 100 percent guarantee that members of ISIS would not infiltrate Bloomington. As Exodus’s executive director discussed the rigorous screening process endured by all refugees entering the U.S., Dunn whispered at Legomsky and reached out to tug on her shirt. She missed and settled on leaning into the table, gripping the edge of her chair. Dunn chipped in, citing the Cato Institute and explaining that the odds of anyone being involved in a refugee-led terrorist attack is one in 3.64 billion — 11 times less likely than death by falling furniture. There was truth inside her, packaged with a
passion for education and a dedication to helping all creatures find refuge. She, Legomsky, Veneri and others systematically dismantled concern after concern by presenting statistics and personal experience. But fears of Muslims and diversity just kept flowing. One woman, her body cockeyed like a frozen marionette, focused in on Veneri. “What we would possibly find with Sharia law, if it was allowed, are enclaves, which we might call ghettos, for Muslims,” the woman said as Dunn whipped her head in Legomsky’s direction. “Then, if they did stone a woman for a non-witnessed rape, we would go and get those guys in trouble, as Americans? Are you saying that’s okay with us?” The Exodus director said all people would be held to the same standards in U.S. courts. He fought to keep the woman from speaking over him. Dunn slid her rings around and chewed on a thumb nail. “But if they make a judgment, which is in Sharia law, and they carry out the judgment, the poor girl’s already dead,” the woman said, shifting from hip to hip. Dunn grimaced.
Legomsky cut in, outlining Orthodox Judaism’s local courts, which exemplify how faiths can fit within the framework of U.S. law. Dunn pulled herself into the table and leaned to make eye contact with her latest interrogator. “But what happens now?” the woman asked. “We have many young men that have been Americans, and they are the ones that have become the terrorists.” She called for a response from Dunn, whose eyes bore into the woman. “Does that support what you’re saying?” the woman asked. “That these children that are assimilated so easily will for sure grow up to be just American kids?” Dunn threw her hands toward the ceiling and flung them about as she spoke. This was a softball question, an insult. There are millions of immigrant Muslims in this country, she said, and three have conducted violent acts. In the same time span, many, many non-Muslims have done the same. Dunn erupted from her chair. “No one can tell you 100 percent that nothing will ever happen in the future,” Dunn continued. “But I can tell
about you. You are less wellvetted than any refugee coming into this country.” Applause from this latest class drowned out the rest of her words. The woman attempted a retort, but Veneri cut her off. “Your minute is up. Your minute is up now.” Dunn fell back into her seat. A little later, after receiving many congratulations, Dunn was alone for the first time that evening. She stood in the middle of the room. She spun just slightly, searching for whom, for where, for what was next. She did not imagine it would be Donald Trump and Mike Pence — the governor who attempted to ban Syrian refugees — winning the election. * * * Just hours after Trump had given his acceptance speech, Dunn pulled her class into a discussion circle for the first time. This class, Dunn had to ask the questions. “What will this mean for refugees? What will this mean for the families we are working to bring to Bloomington?”
» BASKETBALL
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 fouls in the first nine minutes in the second exhibition. Stopping Bryant will be one thing for the Jayhawks on Friday night, but limiting Anunoby might be the bigger challenge. “It’s very hard because a guy like OG can do a lot of things out there,” Bryant said about defending Anunoby. “He can take you down low, stretch you out to the 3-point line, he can shoot it really well and just takes advantage of what the defense gives him or what the offense gives him.” Kansas will expect Anunoby to do all of those things. Jayhawk freshman Josh Jackson will most likely be the one that has to stop the versatile sophomore from Jefferson City, Missouri. Jackson enters the season as the No. 1 player in the 2016 recruiting class according to 247sports. The 6-foot-8 freshman has shown his potential early on the offensive side but has lacked defensively, which is where Kansas could be in trouble going up against Anunoby. The matchup to watch will be on the flipside as Jackson will be the first of many elite offensive players that Anunoby will be called upon to guard this season. He’s averaged 12.5 points per game in the two exhibition games, but Self said the freshman needs to be more aggressive and create extra possessions by offensive rebounding, which will be tough to do against Anunoby. Because a national championship won’t be decided in November, Crean said he knows whatever happens in this game he can use as a teaching point for his group. “You win a game in here, you can’t all of a sudden feel like you’ve arrived. You lose a game here, you can’t feel like you’re not going to win another game,” Crean said. “No matter who wins, there’s going to be improvements to be made, strengths to improve upon and weaknesses to be corrected, and if you keep that mindset, it can carry you hopefully a long way.”

STOP STATE Hoosiers seek to end Nittany Lions’ five-game win streak Saturday By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu | @TaylorRLehman
Throughout the season, IU Coach Kevin Wilson has said something he’s learned through his years in Bloomington that applies to this season as well as any other. The Hoosiers don’t handle success well. “You’re always pressing to have your best week, but you don’t want to squeeze too tight,” Wilson said. “Our deal is we haven’t handled success good, and so you’ve got a couple wins, and we didn’t even play well the other day.” The “other day” was Saturday against Rutgers, and “didn’t even play well” is directed toward the four turnovers and five missed kicks IU recorded in the 33-27 victory. Those are aspects of the game Wilson is looking to improve as he and IU welcome No. 12 Penn State on Saturday in the midst of a twogame win streak. Those two wins haven’t been pretty, though. Against Maryland, the IU defense faltered and surrendered 269 yards on the ground on the way to 36 total points allowed. Just enough scratchand-claw plays, as junior linebacker Tegray Scales referred to them, maintained the Hoosiers’ lead against the Terrapins. At Rutgers, the defense forced 11 three-and-outs, but the offense turned the ball over four times, and the kicking game left 11 points on the field in the form of three missed field goals and two failed extra-point attempts. Regardless of the game, some part of the team was shaky, and now Wilson and offensive coordinator Kevin Johns said the Hoosiers need to play their best to defeat a Nittany Lions team that’s been playing as well as anyone in the country. “They’re playing with an extreme amount of confidence,” Johns said. “You can tell that they’re well-
coached. They don’t give up a lot of big plays. There aren’t a lot of mistakes.” Penn State’s season looked grim after the loss to Pittsburgh early in the season, but since losing to Michigan 49-10, the Nittany Lions have won five consecutive games to push their record to 7-2. The win streak includes an upset victory at home against Ohio State. In those five games, Penn State has defeated its opponents by an average of 19 points. Aside from IU’s 21-point victory against Florida International, its largest margin of victory this season is 10 points — against Ball State. The Hoosiers don’t want to repeat last year’s scenario, when they earned bowl eligibility in the last game of the season. However, 2016 is much like the 2015 season, in which IU started 4-0 for the first time since 1990 and pushed top-ranked teams to the brink only to lose six consecutive games and have to beat Purdue in West Lafayette, Indiana, to earn a spot in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl. Even in the bowl, IU didn’t respond to success well and lost in overtime against the Duke Blue Devils in the Hoosiers’ first bowl game since 2007. This year, after showing the second-best defensive improvement in the country, IU’s offense has struggled. After beating Michigan State, IU didn’t record more than 100 rushing yards for three weeks and must now face two top-ranked teams and Purdue to try to earn the sixth win. Wins that looked promising at the beginning of the season turned into losses, and now a Penn State team that looked weak in week two is as strong as ever and traveling to Bloomington with a possible Heisman candidate in running back Saquon Barkley. “It’s going to take our best effort,” Wilson said. “It’s going to take our best week.”
THE HUSS REPORT
IU has to step up its game against No. 10 Penn State IU faces its toughest home test of the season Saturday against Penn State. Here are five areas where the Hoosiers need to be successful if they are to pull off the upset. Run the ball effectively It is going to be tough sledding for IU against Penn State’s rush defense. According to Football Study Hall, the Nittany Lions have the 17th best rushing defense in the country, and the Hoosiers have the 93rd best rushing offense. However, Penn State is susceptible to big plays on the ground. That’s where junior quarterback Zander Diamont comes in. His greatest asset for the Hoosiers has been his ability to break long runs, and IU is going to need one of those from him and effective carries on early downs to help junior quarterback Richard Lagow succeed. Efficient performance from Lagow Penn State’s defense is multifaceted, but its best feature is its pass defense. According to Football Study Hall, the Nittany Lions have the 14th best pass defense in the country. Lagow has struggled with consistency this season and will have his work cut out for him. He needs to be able to bounce back from any mistakes and deliver on critical throws if IU’s going to win. He doesn’t need to be perfect, but he can’t waste multiple scoring opportunities. Don’t give up the big play IU’s defense has to force Penn State to go on long drives. Penn State brings the nation’s 11th most explosive offense, according to Football Study Hall, and IU’s defense ranks 78th in explosive offense. However, the Nittany Lions are ranked 80th in efficiency. If IU can

limit its amount of broken plays and keep everything in front them, Penn State may bog down and fail in attempts to sustain long drives. Sack the quarterback Junior quarterback Trace McSorley has been a revelation so far behind center for the Nittany Lions. This season he’s passed for 2,058 yards and 14 touchdowns, and he’s rushed for 410 yards and 5 scores. According to Football Study Hall, Penn State’s passing attack is the fifth best in the country. However, McSorley has been sacked 17 times this season, 10 of them coming in Penn State’s two losses. That could be the product of the tendency for scrambling quarterbacks to run themselves into trouble in attempts to avoid an initial sack attempt on a play. If so, the Hoosiers need to contain the pocket and shut off escape routes. Against two of the most scramble-prone quarterbacks — Ohio State’s J.T. Barrett and Nebraska’s Tommy Armstrong — in the Big Ten, IU wasn’t able to do so and lost. Special teams can’t be a disaster Against a top-10 opponent, an underdog has to make up yards and points somewhere. At this point in the season, IU’s special teams have been cataclysmic. The Hoosiers have reliable punting and punt return units but have greatly lacked in the field goal department this season. IU needs the latter to find confidence again against Penn State. aphussey@indiana.edu @thehussnetwork

MOORE TO SAY
The DNC elected Donald Trump
ILLUSTRATION BY MORGAN ANDERSON | IDS
Starbucks holiday cup controversy is absurd What has the annual holiday tradition done to hurt anyone? On today’s episode of “Americans Get Offended by Everything,” we actually have a returning contestant. That’s right, folks, the Starbucks seasonal cups are back in the spotlight with the upcoming holiday season. Starbucks officially released its 13 new red and white holiday designs Thursday. These cups were winners of a contest last holiday season when Starbucks released blank red cups and invited customers to design them. No doubt, some will find a way to take offense to the innocuous, well-designed cups in the coming days. Even worse than those who are offended by a piece of cardboard, however, are those who loudly voice their defense of Starbucks’ cups online. We get it. It’s a cup. No one
should be making a big deal out of it in the first place, and giving attention to those who take offense to the cups is only enabling their whining, and no one wants to hear more whining. We saw this in recent history with the green and white Unity Cup that Starbucks released leading into this political election season. Somehow, a group of Republicans decided that a nice drawing of people holding hands on their coffee cup was a liberal scheme to make us vote for Hillary Clinton — hang on to your tinfoil hats. Well, if it was somehow a sneaky political move, it obviously didn’t work, but even worse than this group of obviously unintelligent complainers were the thousands more who decided it was their mor-
al duty to defend Starbucks and their green cup. The Editorial Board understands people feel a strong connection to their favorite brands. We too spend way too much money on overpriced coffee, and the Starbucks green cups obviously didn’t offend us. People on social media need to understand that by tweeting at these people who take offense to a cup they are giving the complainers more attention and a larger platform to spread their silly conspiracy theories. The Unity Cup haters got so much attention that major news networks such as CBS had actual airtime devoted to talking about them. If social media users had just ignored the people complaining about the cups, they never would
have gained enough traction to become a news story. This goes beyond the minor issue of just Starbucks coffee cups. Social media as a whole invites people to overreact. A group of just a few angry people can get so many responses that they become a news story and a national issue. We make these problems bigger than they need to be by giving them false validity, and it needs to stop. So whether you love Starbucks’ new holiday cups moving forward or you’re somehow offended that they picture snowflakes rather than Jesus at the Last Supper, please keep it to yourself. Giving undue attention to the complainers will make you just as annoying as they are. We’re all paying too much for the coffee anyway.
KARL’S KORNER
Can we talk about something else, please? I have a system when I write a column. The first step in the process is to choose a topic. While it’s generally difficult to find a subject that I’m passionate enough about to dedicate my time and energy to, the exploring part is usually the most fun because I’m able to see what’s going on in the world. The last two columns I’ve written have been about Donald Trump, an enigmatic orange Cheeto who just so happens to be our president-elect. That’s great and all, but I’m kind of over him. This week I wanted to do something new, something inventive and something that would knock everybody’s socks off just because it didn’t have anything to do with that tiny-handed demagogue. Guess what? I searched high and low on the homepage of every main news website, and all I got was Trump.
Trump will make getting a green card impossible. Trump makes journalists want to crawl into a little ball and cry. Trump has some serious foreign policy issues to figure out. I get it. He’s bigly news. That being said, it’s not like time stopped and paved the way for this man to suck the life out of every possible media outlet. It’s actually the opposite. The media created this man. Now it’s time to dig ourselves out of this mess and start talking about something else. There are things going on in this country that we’re quickly losing sight of simply because of the toxic effect of this election. The Editorial Board had to publish an entire editorial on a freaking cup. Why? Because we’re so disillusioned that there’s nothing else happening other than Trump and the controversial containers in
which our morning beverages are housed. Newsflash — there is. In South Carolina, two bodies were found on the property of a man connected to seven murders. In New Hampshire, the police are on the hunt for the duo that stole 68 bras from Victoria’s Secret. The gap between triangles in Toblerone bars has been widened and has sent everyone and their mother into frenzy. Interpol has elected a controversial new chief named Meng Hongwei, the former deputy head of China’s armed police. It took .637 seconds for a robot to solve a Rubik’s Cube. That’s ten times faster than the fastest recorded human. A tech virus has erupted that can be spread through light bulbs, which theoretically could shut down the Wi-Fi of a whole city.

I could go on. As you can see, there’s a crap ton of stuff that’s going on around us that’s a hell of a lot more interesting than some old man with blonde cotton candy on his head. It’s time to move on, United States. Get back to your Super Big Gulps and your basketball games. Go out on a date. Don’t talk about the perilous future of our nation, talk about the now. Go on a bike ride. Forget to do your laundry. Learn to play chess. Dance at that party. We’re only here for a short amount of time. There’s only so much you can do. jlkarl@indiana.edu @jkarl26

Since Donald Trump’s surprising and controversial win Tuesday night, the internet has been in an uproar about how it’s possible he won. Some people are blaming low voter turnout. Others are blaming thirdparty voters. However, the real reason why Trump is now our president-elect is the Democratic National Committee. This election season was rife with populism. Americans believe establishment politicians across the political spectrum are abusing citizens for personal gain. They don’t represent our actual desires, and we’ve grown tired of it. When the DNC had primaries to decide who would represent the party in the presidential election, it was an absolute farce. Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vermont, had no chance to win despite strong grassroots support indicating he was favored. The DNC rigged the primaries in order to give Hillary Clinton the nomination because they figured she couldn’t possibly lose to Trump. Rather than allow democracy to select a candidate, Democratic elites deliberately tried to force the United States to accept Clinton. Not only is this a complete mockery of everything we stand for as a nation, it was just plain stupid. The establishment decided it was her turn on the throne. Unfortunately for many Americans, the DNC’s corruption led to the nomination of a completely unfit candidate. Clinton is the only person who could have lost to Trump this election. She’s an elitist who tries to seem holier-than-thou on so many issues that it makes my head spin. In an election so heavily fueled by populism, this strategy is anything but effective. Americans didn’t want

more of the same political drudgery from Washington, D.C., and that’s exactly what Clinton and the DNC promised to deliver us. Trump did everything he could to lose. He’s made outlandish remarks about minorities, women, other politicians and just about any other demographic you can imagine. He has very little poise and almost no tact, but Clinton’s robotic, forced mannerisms and feeble attempts to be relatable alienated her from a dizzying number of voters. Democrats could have had Sanders. I disagree with almost all his policies, but he undeniably appeals to a populist America. He’s so unlike many of the other politicians who take advantage of us. Americans saw Sanders as relatable and trustworthy, but the DNC decided we would be force-fed Clinton and that we would be too stupid to do anything about it. Americans aren’t as stupid as they made us out to be. We can’t know for sure whether Sanders would have beaten Trump, but in a race between a polarizing man of the people and a robotic autocrat, the man of the people won. If you’re a Republican, be sure to send the DNC a thank-you letter. They’ve earned it. If you’re a Democrat, please realize who did this to you. The superdelegate nomination system is a broken one that invites political corruption and leads to nonrepresentative candidates. Your party is the reason Trump is going to be the 45th president. dylmoore@indiana.edu
SARAH’S SENTIMENTS
Stop the hurtful rhetoric I want everyone to remember the first moment they were in elementary school and learned black people were enslaved only a few generations ago in the United States or that women could not vote less than a century ago. The first time you learned about the dark parts of history, how did you feel? I remember I was shocked. I was sad. I was confused. I was unable to comprehend the tragic history of humankind. Somewhere along the line though, the shock value went away. The moments were still tragic to reflect on, but the idea that they had existed became normalized. They’re just history. My teachers all told me that people had fought hard and injustices had been overcome. Luckily, in many ways, they were right. Women and men of all races before me fought relentlessly to change the U.S. in important ways. Peaceful protests took place, important words were spoken, laws changed and many attitudes changed with them. This election, though, I have noticed some of these attitudes have slipped through the cracks and are still alive in many people’s opinions today. We all know one thing we love about the U.S. is freedom of speech. These people are and should be allowed to say what they want about their beliefs. That doesn’t mean my heart does not break when I hear them. It also doesn’t mean if someone’s beliefs directly attack the identity of another person that I won’t stand up for that person. I hope our president-

elect changes the way he talks about many groups and begins to set a positive example for what rhetoric should be the American norm. More importantly, though, I hope we all grow comfortable becoming vocal in our own lives. This scary language existed before our election; I have heard and seen it, and I have been silent. Therefore, I will be the first to admit that it is so much easier said than done. It is one thing to like a Facebook post and show support, but it is another to hear someone say something wrong and hurtful and have the strength to say something. I realize now that we should all make this a priority. I don’t believe in fighting with violence, but I do believe in speaking up to stand for what I believe. We should all learn to not feel bad for letting a friend or acquaintance know, “Hey, don’t you think what you said was just pretty mean?” Just like when we were little and saw the world with fresh eyes, we should still be saddened and angered by injustices. We should still care for other people who are not like us. We should still always make kindness our prized virtue and never underestimate the power of caring for others. In the great words of the Beatles, love is all you need. sdloughr@indiana.edu

IU alumni band to release first neo-soul album By Calie Schepp crschepp@iu.edu | @calierae9

Jacobs School of Music professor P. Q. Phan directs performers for an upcoming show. Phan organized the Jacobs faculty trip to Vietnam.
Faculty to visit Vietnam music By Jesse Naranjo jlnaranj@indiana.edu | @jesselnaranjo
On Sunday, a few Jacobs School of Music professors will trade in their regular morning commutes to the south side of campus for an airplane ride halfway across the world. Their destination? The Vietnam National Academy of Music in Hanoi, Vietnam. “What we hope the most is to open a new gate, a new door, for people over there to understand more about who we are and what we can do,” said professor P. Q. Phan, who organized the trip. Phan, who teaches music composition, is originally from Vietnam and immigrated to the United States in the early 1980s. He first visited the academy in 2009. It was the first time since leaving Vietnam that he returned to his country of birth. The other musicians embarking on this trip, which marks the 60th anniversary of the academy, are clarinet professor Howard Klug, harp professor Elzbieta Szmyt and piano professor Edward Auer, accompanied by his wife, pianist Junghwa Auer. Phan said while composers from all over Europe and Asia will be in attendance, this delegation is the only group from the U.S. invited to the festival. When he first approached the academy, the officials were skeptical of his motive, Phan said. It took him years to overcome their distrust of expatriates, which prevented him from sharing his skills with the students in
Hanoi. “Human nature is very interesting because no matter where you live, people always say, ‘So what’s in it for you? Why are you doing this?’” Phan said. “But after I approached them several times and after they understood the intention was good and is sincere, they opened very welcomely to have us come in and help however we can.” Junghwa Auer said the history of classical music in Vietnam is relatively unknown to the outside world with a few exceptions. She said being from South Korea she has observed how classical music differs from culture to culture and from country to country. “They all have included their culture in their music, so I’m sure we’ll find it interesting,” Junghwa Auer said. “We could find it strange or we could find it more wonderful, but I’m sure we’ll find something different.” She said the inclusion of a harpist is very important for the academy because Vietnam does not currently have harp instruction. Phan said the school is also desperately in need of clarinet consulting, which he said made Klug’s participation in this year’s trip even more timely. “I think that almost all of us are really eager to go to other places and find other people who are hungrier for music than New Yorkers or London folk,” Edward Auer said. He referred to the example of pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim, who constructed concerts comprised of Israeli and
Palestinian musicians. Junghwa Auer said even if Barenboim’s orchestra was not big enough to solve the crisis in the Middle East, there is no harm in bringing musical exposure to people who need it. “The notion that music is an international language is so boring and so overused that it’s even embarrassing to pronounce the words,” Edward Auer said. “But when you really go some place like that, and you cannot speak in words, and you discover that they have the same feelings about music that you do, well, then, that saying has a new life.” Phan said apart from lending skills to the academy, he thinks the professors can also learn from the culture of music appreciation in Vietnam. He recounted how the first time he brought a colleague with him the pianist opted to perform an hours-long Chopin piece, which Phan thought might cause the audience to leave at intermission. “It was a very difficult piece, not just to play, but difficult to appreciate,” Phan said. “The kind of music where if you do not have enough sugar in your system, you may fall asleep, but very poetic.” Phan said he watched the audience and prepared for a mass exodus at intermission. To his surprise, not only did the audience stay for the whole concert, but even the youngest children in attendance were on their feet at the end for an ovation. Apart from a hotel room and ride to and from the airport, the professors are

paying out of pocket. Junghwa Auer said while the best situation for a musician is receiving a fee for their performance, that is not the only thing that leads them to perform. “Because you live in Vietnam, or because you live someplace in the corner, you’re always an outsider,” Junghwa Auer said. “As soon as young Vietnamese musicians meet people who came from America and came from a wonderful music school, I’m sure they’ll feel America is closer and Indiana University is closer.” Phan said it may seem peculiar to some that a group of internationally recognized musicians and instructors would travel on their own money to do something that does not materially benefit them. “They have an opportunity to share something they love so deeply to a part of the world that’s still considered to be quite mysterious,” Phan said. “I think all of us at this stage are more into giving back than taking in, so we don’t mind at all spending a little bit of our money to do things like this.”
The Brands, a soul band made up of IU Jacobs School of Music alumni, has its first full-length album coming out this month. The Bloomingtonbased group’s sound is selfproclaimed neo-soul from the heart of Indiana. The album, titled “Clearance Aisle,” was inspired by the band members’ favorite groups, like Hiatus Kaiyote, Robert Glasper and D’Angelo, saxophonist Jonah Tarver said. The Brands consists of Tarver, Nathan Feler, Quinn Sternberg, Richie McCarthy, Tim Fogarty and Clay Wulbrech. “Our new album is really cool because it is so collaborative,” bassist Sternberg said. “I’m excited for people to hear it.” Sternberg said being involved in the music school and jazz program at IU influenced how the Brands wanted its project to sound. “I started playing jazz because it seemed like the most challenging style of music and I wanted to get better at my instrument,” Sternberg said. “After I learned and listened to and played enough jazz, I ended up loving it, which was a very pleasant surprise.” Sternberg said being in a band is a collective effort. Every member of the band contributes to the recording sessions and the writing process. “Since it’s a very collaborative project, I’m able to write my own bass parts and also give ideas for other instruments,” Sternberg said. “During the recording of our album, I attended many of the sessions that didn’t even involve bass to add an extra set of ears.” Tarver, who was brought into the group after one of the band’s songs, “Greatest Hits Collection,” needed a horns section, first started playing music when he was nine years old. “I read a book called ‘Bud, Not Buddy’ that had a part that described each member in a jazz band,” Tarver said. “When the saxophone player was described as making the saxophone talk, I was hooked.” Aside from jazz, Sternberg said the band is influ-
“We have a lot of great songs, but I don’t think we ever play them the same way twice. It’s exciting to go into a gig not knowing exactly how things will play out.” Quinn Sternberg, bassist for The Brands
enced by rock, hip-hop and soul music, which makes its live shows spontaneous not just for the crowd but also for the band as performers. “The main thing that I enjoy about jazz in general, and the main thing that I enjoy about the jazz influence in the Brands, is that anything can happen at any time,” Sternberg said. “We have a lot of great songs, but I don’t think we ever play them the same way twice. It’s exciting to go into a gig not knowing exactly how things will play out.” Tarver said he thinks each member of the band brings their own set of influences from the non-jazz music they listen to. “We all agree that after all the music school we’ve been through, we just want play to the music we constantly consume and cherish outside of our studies,” Tarver said. Since all of the band’s members attended the Jacobs School of Music, Tarver said its music is influenced by what the members were taught in college and what they experienced. He attributes the relatability of their music to guitarist and vocalist Feler’s lyrics. “We chose our sound because of how Jacobs pushed us,” Tarver said. “But as well you can hear in Nathan’s lyrics that our message is a sobering one about the state of affairs that college students in our position experience.” Tarver said his favorite part about being in a band is the ease of it. He said he and his bandmates are doing what they love, and people like listening to it. “There really isn’t much negative stress or bad moods when all you have to do is show up for the gig or at the studio and play music in the most unfiltered way,” Tarver said.
Rock drummer, author to play Buskirk By Austin Faulds afaulds@indiana.edu | @a_faulds9615
Though the majority of popular musicians only play with a few acts during their lifetimes, rock drummer Kenny Aronoff has played with more than 70 bands and artists, according to his website. On Friday, the famed drummer and IU alumnus will be performing a free show at 7 p.m. in the Buskirk-Chumley Theater. Stone Age Institute co-director Nick Toth said Aronoff will not only be performing music but sharing stories and experiences he’s had throughout his 40-year career. Stone Age Institute, a Bloomington-based anthropological organization, will be the sponsors of the event. Toth said the event will be free to give back to the community that helped the organization get started. Aronoff is no stranger to Bloomington. Toth said the
drummer lived in Bloomington for many years before moving to Los Angeles, and Stone Age co-director Kathy Schick said he was classically trained on percussion in the Jacob’s School of Music. “In a lot of ways, he feels like a Bloomingtonian,” Toth said. “He has a lot of friends and family in the area, even though he is now based in the L.A. area, so this is kind of a homecoming for him.” Aronoff has played with artists such as John Mellencamp, the Rolling Stones, Johnny Cash, Lady Gaga, Bruce Springsteen and two surviving members of the Beatles. Toth said he believes Aronoff ’s large list of collaborators is not a coincidence. “So many artists want to work with Kenny because he’s just so good,” Toth said. After the show Aronoff will be doing a book signing for his new autobiography, “Sex, Drums, Rock’n’Roll!: The Hardest Hitting Man in Show Business,” Toth said.
Despite being a scientific organization, Toth said Stone Age does not exclude itself from the creative world. One of Stone Age’s speaker programs is on craftsmanship, which features musicians, artists, authors and more. Toth said Aronoff spoke at one of these programs about 15 years ago. “We don’t draw a sharp line between science and art,” Toth said. Toth said Stone Age has musicians like Aronoff and Police drummer Stewart Copeland on its advisory board, which helps consider scientific accomplishments and financial decisionmaking. The organization even has its own band that performs songs of various genres about evolution. Schick said her and Toth’s friendship with Aronoff goes beyond his involvement with the organization. In 1988, the three of them met on a flight from Indianapolis to New York.
Toth said Mellencamp’s entire band was on the flight because they were touring at the time. Toth said he recognized Aronoff from his performance with Mellencamp on “Saturday Night Live” and decided to converse with him. As Toth and Schick were on their way to Africa, Toth said he promised to find Aronoff a traditional African drum. Toth eventually found a drum from Zambia, and Aronoff has used the drum in many recordings and performances. Despite his large repertoire of musical acts, Schick said she believes Aronoff has found his own distinct drumming style. “You can hear a song and say, ‘That has to be Kenny there,’” Schick said. On top of that, Toth said he believes Aronoff works as diligently as he drums. “He has an incredible work ethic,” Toth said. “He’s one of the hardest-working people I know.”

IU prepares for Big Ten semis
Backcourt play could be the difference in Hawaii
By Josh Eastern jeastern@iu.edu | @JoshEastern
IU’s Big Ten Tournament semifinal match Friday is a classic case of offense versus defense. The Hoosiers have posted 10 clean sheets this season, and the Wisconsin Badgers have scored multiple goals in six of their last seven matches. If this match is anything like the first match, a 0-0 draw, then the result would likely favor the Hoosiers. If not, it will be interesting to see if IU can muster up a few goals. Something will have to give. Whether it is 5-4 or 0-0 and penalties decide the winner, one team will advance to Sunday’s Big Ten Championship match against Michigan State or Maryland. “Wisconsin is a great team,” IU junior defender Grant Lillard said. “They’ve been in great form recently, finished strong in the Big Ten, just had a 3-0 win over Ohio State, and they’re a good team. Defensively, they’re organized. They talk well, good players in the air. We just have to make sure we’re focused on what we need to do.” One player IU may want to focus on is Wisconsin junior forward Christopher Mueller. Mueller has seven goals and 10 assists on the season. He leads the team in goals, but the attack doesn’t end with him. Four other

Badgers have scored at least three goals. As a team, the Badgers have put the ball in the back of the net 28 times this season. The Hoosiers have prided themselves on defense all season long. Those clean sheets are no fluke. Two players, Lillard and sophomore Andrew Gutman, from backline made the All-Big Ten first and second teams, respectively. “Defensively I think we’ve been good all year,” IU Coach Todd Yeagley said. “I think we have some new options.

The best way to preview this IU-Kansas college basketball matchup is with a look at the NBA. Stick with me for a second. I think I know what I’m doing. On Nov. 9, the Brooklyn Nets and New York Knicks squared off in Madison Square Garden for what turned out to be a pretty interesting contest. The Knicks won 110-96 thanks to a 38-point drubbing in the final quarter. We could talk about New York’s improved defense, Carmelo Anthony’s resurgence or Brooklyn’s shoddy play to end the game, but since this is Indiana, so we must reference the fact former IU point guard Yogi Ferrell played his first NBA game. He was called up to the big leagues, signed by the Nets on the same day of his premiere game. He put up five points with three assists and one rebound. The Hoosiers’ chief guard of the last four years is gone, on to greener pastures. This Friday against Kansas will be IU’s first real test without him. This — the 2016-17 season — will be a new era for the Hoosiers, a Yogi-less one. And the newfangled backcourt is going to have to find their groove, and quick, if they’re going to beat the No. 3 Kansas Jayhawks.

court is one of the more intimidating in all of college basketball. This may be too hot of a take, but Bellarmine University and Hope College — IU’s first two exhibitions — are not Kansas. Let’s take a second to allow that to cool down. What will make or break the Hoosiers, especially early on in the season, is their backcourt play. In the most recent game against Bellarmine, IU started three guards: junior Josh Newkirk, junior James Blackmon Jr. and junior Robert Johnson. This team will not have a ball-dominant playmaker like Ferrell, but that may be the best thing for the Hoosiers in the long term. The reliance on Ferrell to make plays was sometimes reminiscent of movies with Leonardo DiCaprio. Just throw him in there, put some old clothes on him and get out of the way. Now the Hoosiers will have to distribute the ball, especially against a top-team like the Jayhawks. This must be a team effort. That’s my expert analysis. “Their point guard is going to have to be by committee where they can pass the ball ahead,” ESPN analyst Jay Bilas said in reference to IU’s guard play. “The ball can’t just stick in one guy’s hands and have him run everything.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
Hoosiers start year with two home games By Jake Thomer jjthomer@indiana.edu @jake_the_thomer
With a busy preseason and an exhibition win already under its belt, No. 23 IU will officially begin its regular season with a pair of games this weekend at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. The Hoosiers will play their first game of the new season Friday night when they are hosts to Presbyterian at 7 p.m. On Sunday afternoon, Vanderbilt will come to Bloomington as IU’s first major conference opponent of the season for a 2 p.m. tipoff. Both Vanderbilt and Presbyterian return their top four scorers from last season, so their strengths from last year should carry over into the upcoming season. One thing both teams did well last season was shoot the three, and IU Coach Teri Moren said her team will have to keep the perimeter locked down all weekend. “We’re not looking ahead to Vanderbilt, but certainly
we know we have to guard the 3-point line both Friday and Sunday,” Moren said. “The thing about Presbyterian, though, they’re kind of hybrid players and they don’t have a true post player, so they can all step out and shoot the three.” Presbyterian was 41st out of 344 Divison I teams in the country last season in terms of most 3s attempted at nearly 23 3s per game. Sophomore guard Taylor Petty was last year’s leading scorer for the Blue Hose and by far their most active long-range shooter, tallying 74 made threes in 223 attempts during the season. Vanderbilt, on the other hand, opts for efficiency with its 3s and shot 37 percent from deep last year, which was good for 16th in the NCAA. The Commodores’ backcourt of junior guards Christa Reed and Rachel Bell will anchor the team as the two leading scorers from last season. The duo combined for more than 20 points per game. Both Moren and sophomore forward Kym Royster
said the quick turnaround between games is tricky for planning purposes but not much of an issue in the way of player fatigue. Royster said the biggest thing when prepping for two games in three days is to take full advantage of practice time during the week. “We just have to come into every practice focused and ready to work,” Royster said. “We can’t have any days of practice where we’re not good as a team collectively. We’ve got to always look forward to coming in and getting things done.” If the Hoosiers do get tired, they can lean on their deep bench to stay fresh and competitive. With seven guards who saw at least 10 minutes of playing time in IU’s exhibition win against University of Indianapolis, Moren has a wide range of players to help keep up with Presbyterian and Vanderbilt on the perimeter. Moren said the starting lineup for Friday’s game will be close to a game-time decision. She has said the lineup and rotations will remain fluid

in the early part of the season but nine or 10 players would be in the regular rotation Friday. With both Vanderbilt and Presbyterian coming off 18win seasons and returning most key players, Moren said the opening weekend should
present a healthy challenge for her team. IU went 14-0 at home last year, so Moren said she anticipates every visiting team who comes to Bloomington this season will be anxious to end the Hoosiers’ streak. On Friday night, Presbyterian will
get the first crack at playing streak-stopper. “Presbyterian will be a great first game for us. They bring some tremendous challenges,” Moren said. “I would anticipate, just like anybody else that comes in here, that we’re going to get their best.”

IU welcomes No. 1 Nebraska on senior night By Spencer Davis spjdavis@indiana.edu @spencer_davis16
The No. 1 volleyball team in the country will be traveling to Bloomington to take on the Hoosiers on Saturday night. IU welcomes the 23-1, 14-1 Nebraska Cornhuskers on senior night, and the Hoosiers will be in search of a defining win. IU, 16-12 overall, 5-10 in the Big Ten, enters on the heels of its Wednesday night loss against No. 17 Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan, but IU Coach Sherry DunbarKruzan remains extremely confident heading into her team’s matchup against top-
ranked Nebraska. “I expect to win,” DunbarKruzan said. “On any given night in this conference that can happen and I believe that any time you have an event like a senior night and a home-court advantage and you are going for a goal, you never know what is going to happen. ” In the first meeting between the two teams, IU freshman setter Victoria Brisack got her first start in place of injured senior setter Megan Tallman, and Nebraska swept IU 25-23, 25-13 and 25-17. Since Tallman’s return, Dunbar-Kruzan has implemented a lineup in which
both setters play on the floor together, and the Hoosiers have seen success, including two upset victories against ranked opponents. IU will employ that 6-2 formation once again Saturday night. “I think we’re in the right lineup right now, and we just have to play at a higher level,” Dunbar-Kruzan said. “Nebraska is really good, so you have to have a mentality that you are just going to go for it. You need to go for big swings and big serves. Nothing to hold back when you play a team like that. ” Nebraska’s lone loss of the season came at the hands of Ohio State, which IU defeated in four sets last week.
In order to replicate that success, Dunbar-Kruzan said it is imperative that middle blockers senior Jazzmine McDonald and freshman Deyshia Lofton continue their recent trend of aggressive and confident play. As for confident play, senior libero Taylor Lebo set a lofty goal for herself for this weekend’s match. “I want to get the highest amount of digs that I’ve ever gotten, which would be close to 30,” Lebo said. “I just want our team to play hard and to obviously win. Upsetting the No. 1 team is like a dream come true. We’ve been playing really good ball at our place so I’m excited.”
Lebo said she believes the team must play and block like they did when they defeated then-No. 13 Michigan about two weeks ago. The co-captain said the team’s performance in that match helped the overall morale and feel of the team. She said upset win brought the team’s competitive edge back to life. “We have to play with heart, we have to play scrappy and we have to get our offense going again,” Lebo said. “If we get one or two people to hop onboard with Jazzmine, who has been playing great ball, then I think Nebraska is not really going to know what to do.”
like they’re doing a good job of that.” What we have here is one resolute force — Kansas’s backcourt — and one question mark — IU’s. There’s a sense of optimism, as with this question mark comes a high ceiling, but as we saw with the losses to unranked St. John’s and UNLV, not everything comes into place right away. IU didn’t pull any punches with their early schedule. With Kansas on Friday and No. 6 North Carolina rapidly approaching, the Hoosiers must find a guard combination to pair with OG Anunoby and Thomas Bryant. If not ... dear guard. gigottfr@indiana.edu @gott31
