Dining on I-BUCKS now open at Wells After a semester of preparations, the basement of Wells Library is reopening its doors to hungry students. The new Bookmark[et] Eatery opens today. The eatery, which is a renovation of the former Cyber Café, includes five restaurants and seating for about 150 people. Unlike the Cyber Café, Bookmark[et] Eatery is run through RPS, which allows students to use I-BUCKS meal plans at a 25-percent discount. While this is less than the 60-percent discount offered at most RPS dining locations on campus, Kent Rerko, RPS Dining’s marketing manager, said he believed this pricing system would be better than what had previously been offered in the Cyber Café. “This is one of many ways we’re changing this dining location in a good way,” Rerko said. “But unlike the other RPS dining locations on campus, the Bookmark[et] is being run as a separate financial entity with different management and a different brand.” The dining location is being branded as a destination for both local and international food, said Sonya Harding, the manager of Bookmark[et] Eatery. Bloomington restaurants Scholars Inn Bakehouse and the Chocolate Moose, as well as Gelato Da Vinci from Carmel, Indiana, have locations in the eatery. “It certainly took some more negotiating, and they’ve all brought in people to help with training,” Harding said. “We like being able to have food from places people are already familiar with.” Another of the five restaurants, the Traveler, offers soups and entrees from a different country every day. Dishes from India, Mexico, Korea and Thailand are already being planned, head chef Darren Todd Worth said. “We’re hoping that with a greater variety of food options, we can draw in not just students, but also faculty, staff and visitors,” Harding said. “And we’re trying to match the prices here with what you would pay SEE EATERY, PAGE 6

HAVING A BALL Hoosiers dominate in 9th straight win By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu | @MichaelHughes94
Yogi Ferrell was having more fun than he’d ever had. Junior forward Troy Williams had just made a 3-pointer to give IU a 15-point lead against Ohio State with 7:30 left in the first half, and the senior guard was standing on the bench and nodding with three fingers up above his head. After about 15 seconds he sat back down, only to run onto the court with the rest of his teammates after IU forced a shot clock violation and a media timeout a few seconds later. By the end of the first half, IU
would lead by 30 points, eventually beating Ohio State 85-60 Sunday at Assembly Hall. It was the first time IU has led by 30 points at halftime of a Big Ten game since the current statistics system was put in place in the 199697 season. “That was definitely the most fun basketball I feel like — a half at least — that I’ve played here,” Ferrell said. “You got guys like OG (Anunoby) and Collin (Hartman) going to the offensive glass and dunking the ball. I think that’s fun.” Williams would finish with 23 points, including 16 in the first SEE IUBB, PAGE 6

Pictura Gallery opens new photo exhibition By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu | @bemcafee24601
The walls were lined with photographs at Pictura Gallery. Each picture at Friday’s opening reception for the exhibition “What Does Bloomington Look Like to Me?” showed Bloomington from the perspectives of members of the homeless community. As viewers looked at the photographs, they discussed the work with the photographers, friends and family. The exhibition, which opened on Friday’s Gallery Walk, shows highlights of photographs from a project involving Bloom Magazine, Shalom Community Center and New Hope for Families. Malcolm Abrams, the editor-in-chief of Bloom, kickstarted the project. A group of people from Bloomington’s homeless community were given cameras and photography lessons. Their photos of Bloomington were featured in the issue of Bloom for the months of December and January. Martha Moore, one of the owners of Pictura, said half of the profits go to Shalom or New Hope for Families and the other half goes to the artists. “I think that’s a really wonderful arrangement, and we’re really pleased to be able to participate and help make that happen,” Moore said. Gallery director Lauren Kniss said the exhibition will run for two months. Kniss said she has enjoyed working with Shalom and helping people experiencing homelessness. “We’ve met a lot of the artists that are featured in the show, and they’re so excited,” Kniss said. “It’s been an honor to be a part of.” Kniss said her favorite part of

Lula Shurr, 5, looks at photo displays taken by people experiencing homelessness Friday at Pictura Gallery. Bloom Magazine hosted the exhibit, which was titled“What Does Bloomington Look Like To Me?”.
the exhibition is seeing the photographers view their work hanging in the gallery. Ron Shuler, a photographer featured in the exhibition, said the project gave him the opportunity to revisit an old hobby. “I like taking pictures,” Shuler said. “I’ve been doing it for a long time. I had to give it up for a while because I went through the military, and I came back home to Bloomington. This little opportunity came up, and I decided this was something I wanted to do.” Shuler’s photographs included images of a bird on a cross,
which he said he chose because of its double spiritual meaning. Another photograph shows what used to be his grandfather’s property. He said he chose the location because he has many memories of it. Moore said she likes the quality and content of the photographs. “We were amazed at the high quality of the photographs and the interesting variety of subject matter,” Moore said. “Some of the photos are hard and painful, but there are also photographs that are very lovely, so it kind of runs the gamut.”
