Former football linebacker tells tales of adversity

By Jordan Guskey jguskey@indiana.edu | @JordanGuskey

Matt Mayberry’s drug habit began when he was in eighth grade.

It only snowballed from there.

It wasn’t just underage drinking or smoking marijuana. The only drug Mayberry hadn’t tried was heroin.

His mother has seen him use cocaine five times. His high school guidance counselor told him at age 16 he would be dead or in jail by his 18th birthday.

When Mayberry finally attended a drug treatment facility his sophomore year of high school, it wasn’t because it would keep him from getting expelled.

“I went because my grandparents offered me $500 if I went,” Mayberry said. “And, as a true addict, I started to think of all the things and drugs I could buy with that $500.”

Two weeks later while eating dinner with his family, his father broke down in tears. His parents asked him what they did wrong, and Mayberry said he had an epiphany.

“That caused me to look at myself in the mirror,” Mayberry said, “and for the first time in three years I was very clearly able to see what a disgusting human being I’d been.”

Soon, Mayberry would be getting his life together and starring at linebacker for IU. He’d earn a shot at making it in the NFL, and although adversity would strike again, Mayberry’s path would lead him to public speaking and writing — and it would set him up to steer others in the right direction. * * * All but a handful of Matt Mayberry’s IU football teammates were unaware of the path he’d taken to get there.

Even fewer on the Chicago Bears, who picked him up as an undrafted free agent in 2010, knew why he had worked so hard for a shot at playing in the NFL. If not for a left ankle injury in the 2010 preseason opener against the San Diego Chargers, they all might not have.

The injury kept him out for nine months instead of six and led to an injury settlement that ended his dream of playing in the NFL. Then, another door opened.

Stedman Graham, who ran a nonprofit called Athletes Against Drugs, called to ask Mayberry to speak about his life experiences at an event.

Mayberry said no to Graham at first, but then he changed his mind soon after hanging up the phone.

“Within five minutes I started to realize that I was feeling sorry for myself,” Mayberry said. “My circumstances were really getting the best of me. I was thinking about my injury and making it to this point in my life and overcoming a teenage drug addiction when I was 16 years old.”

Mayberry said he knew he wanted to be a motivational speaker for the rest of his life after the first event.

Now 29, he speaks regularly and writes for Entrepreneur Magazine and Fortune Magazine. * * * Mayberry pulls from his teenage drug addiction, NFL Draftday disappointment and careerending injury to show people how SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE 10

Motorcycle enthusiasts watch as Dean Bordigioni parks his vintage motorcycle at the Harley-Davidson dealership in Bloomington. Bloomington is an overnight stop for the group of motorcyclists, traveling from Atlantic City, New Jersey, to Carlsbad, California, a distance totaling 3,304 miles.

Hoosier pitstop Transcontinental motorcyclists spend the night in Bloomington

By Lindsay Moore liramoor@indiana.edu | @_lindsaymoore

Lynn Cowles said she heard the 100-year-old bike before she saw it. After calling in sick to her bartending job in Medora, Indiana, she and her husband Brad rode up to Bloomington on their 1999 Harley Davidson Dyna Low Rider.

Four hours of sitting in the sun later, she spotted the first motorcyclist rounding the corner on Old State Road 46.

“Sounds like a tractor engine,” Brad said.

Mark Zuber of Seymour, Indiana, leaned over to look through the trees in the HarleyDavidson parking lot.

“Or like a sewing machine,” he said.

The first few pre-1916 motorcycles trickled into the Bloomington dealership Tuesday afternoon as part of the Transcontinental Motorcycle Cannonball Century Race.

The 17-day ride started Saturday in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and will continue to Carlsbad, California, and register approximately 3,304 miles.

The service team and all 95 riders will stay overnight in Bloomington, the only Indiana stop on the route, before eventually heading to Dodge City, Kansas, for a day of rest and festivities in the Western-era cattle town this Sunday.

“This is a once-in-a-lifetime thing to see this many 100-year-old bikes in one spot and to see them actually working,”

“This is a once-in-a-lifetime thing to see this many 100-year-old bikes in one spot and to see them actually working.”

Lynn Cowles, motorcycle enthusiast

Lynn said.

The crowd made a pathway for the bikers and cheered as they came in groups of twos and threes.

“I’ve never seen anything like this outside of a museum or TV,” Brad said.

The antique bikes with their leather seats and exposed engines don’t look much different than the motorcycle Bill Brogon of Daytona, Florida, made when he was a teenager back in New Jersey.

When he was 17, Brogon attached a lawn mower engine on his bicycle and got his drivers license. He hasn’t stopped riding since.

Brogon has followed the Cannonball race with three friends for the past four years. They set off before 5 a.m. Saturday to beat the motorcyclists to their first stop in Pennsylvania.

By the end of it Brogon said he and his friends put on more miles than the actual racers, but they try to stay out of the way and keep their distance. Brogon has never entered the race, but he’s keeping his options open, he said.

The Daytona riders know some of the racers and mechanics on the service team.

The four of them carry spare tires and extra fuel to help out. On the trip up from Ohio, Brogon helped one of the Cannonball riders with an electrical connector but other than that he stayed a good 100 feet behind them.

Brogon rides in Florida every day, which is one of the reasons he moved there. He has an old truck, but he uses it so sparingly he has to charge the battery before he goes, he said.

The four friends take turns leading the route every day. Brogon’s favorite spot is in northwest Florida in a suburb of Jacksonville called Saint John. Just 10 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, he takes leisurely rides on his 2014 Harley-Davidson Road King around winding, tree covered roads.

On average, they do about 300 miles a day, Brogon said. Tuesday was a short trip — only 270 miles, he said.

With that much time on the road, Brogon said he’s often left alone with his thoughts. He thinks about everything, he said, but mostly his two sons, who also own and ride antique bikes.

The crowd at the Harley-Davidson pitstop is a predictable depiction of motorcycle enthusiasts: long beards, leather pants and skull bandanas. But the bikers are excited and friendly. They compare SEE MOTORCYCLE, PAGE 10

Event aims to reduce mental health stigma

By Kate McNeal khmcneal@umail.iu.edu | @katemcneal11

Participants stood in a classroom and moved to either side as words were called out.

Psychotic. Personality disorder.

Feeling hopeless. Life of the party.

Risk-taker.

People moved to each side based on whether they thought the description fit mentally well or unwell as part of an event by Alpha Kappa Alpha and therapists from Counseling and Psychological Services on Tuesday evening.

The event dealt with mental health stigma as part of Elimination of Prejudice Week, sponsored by Pi Lambda Phi, a fraternity founded on inclusiveness.

Other events in Elimination of Prejudice Week include discussions on gender, religion and mental health. Students have also been able to write words they feel are prejudicial on a wall that has been moving around campus. On Saturday, the wall will be broken down.

“The main goal was decreasing the mental health stigma and having a more open conversation about mental health disorders,” said Laura Conner, a presenter at

the event and therapist at CAPS. AKA makes it a goal to be the host of or participate in events that raise mental health awareness as part of their initiative as an organization, said senior Justus Coleman, president of the IU chapter of AKA. “It’s my hope that the takeaway is thinking through those stigmas and working to eliminate them,” Coleman said.

The presentation identified signs of distress and response skills, including how to have a conversation with someone in distress. Tips include naming the signs you have observed, expressing concern and using active listening skills. Toward the end of the presentation, participants were given a scenario about someone in distress and discussed how to handle the situation.

“It helped me have a better understanding of how to deal with someone that has a mental health issue,” Coleman said.

The event was also a way to put a face to CAPS and encourage students to visit CAPS if they needed help or to talk to someone, Conner said.

“It’s a big barrier coming into

our office, and the stigma hinders students from being able to advocate for themselves,” Conner said.

CAPS also has other outreach opportunities in the effort to erase stigma, said Kellen Fox, presenter and therapist at CAPS. These include peer counseling, informal counseling conversations and professional counseling.

“It’s important to realize everyone struggles at some point and it’s normal. It’s okay to reach out and get help,” Fox said.

Conner also said having a mental health issue is common and if it’s not talked about, the stigma will grow.

News-Decoders talk with human rights expert

By Bailey Cline baicline@indiana.edu | @JustKeepWritin

News-Decoder students participated in their first interactive webinar on Tuesday with Steve Crawshaw, the international advocacy director at Amnesty International, who discussed human rights and protests from around the world.

The News-Decoder club allows students at affiliated institutions like IU to get connected and share stories of national and international interest. Students can make posts relating to worldly affairs and discuss the information with peers.

“Today’s session is the first of the new academic year for our pilot institution, and I can’t think of a more important topic for human rights, or one that’s more relevant to international relations,” News-Decoder Founder Nelson Graves said.

Tuesday’s webinar consisted of streaming three screens to the students, one for Crawshaw from London, one for Graves from Paris and one for IU journalism professor Elaine Monaghan.

Students used the video chat room to send in questions to ask Crawshaw.

“Steve Crawshaw is an author and an activist with an unparalleled global perspective on human rights, resistance and change,” Graves said.

Crawshaw discussed ideas he shared in his new book, “Street Spirit: The

Power of Protest and Mischief.” These stories were centered on real protests from the past, ones that would seem trivial, yet proven to be influential, he said.

Some examples include redhatted dwarves in Poland and the effect of Lego figures

in Siberia.

“I love those stories for their creativity and their humor,” Crawshaw said. “It’s the things that happened out of the headlines but actually had incredibly important implications.”

Crawshaw said he be-

lieves human rights are universal. He reminded students of an agreement countries signed years ago to uphold inherent human rights, although not all countries have followed through with the agreement.

“The world does have

a responsibility to react,” Crawshaw said. “I think that’s the greatest failure that we face, and sadly, I think that is going to come back to haunt us.”

Another topic Crawshaw touched on was the way in which countries obtained

their freedom or natural rights. He said he prefers nonviolent protests to armed protests.

“I do understand why people might turn to weapons, but actually it’s incredible how often it has not worked,” he said.

IU offers Peace Corps preparation

By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@iu.edu | @SarahVerschoor

Junior Lucy Brown is completing three majors in biology, Spanish and international studies, as well as a minor in chemistry.

But, coursework is not the only thing Brown said she focuses on.

Brown also aspires to be a member of the Peace Corps and is the IU student ambassador for the Peace Corps.

After living and working in the Dominican Republic on health-related projects this past summer, Brown said she developed a passion for public health policy.

One of the Peace Corps’ six sectors, or volunteer focuses, is health.

Students like Brown who are interested in joining the Peace Corps can now take part in the Peace Corps Prep Program offered through the School of Global and International Studies.

“The Peace Corps Prep Program focuses on service learning, community service and global experience,” said Olga Kalentzidou, director of the Peace Corps Prep Program at IU. “The goals of the program align with IU’s strategic plan in fostering global competencies, undergraduate engagement through experiential

learning opportunities and cross cultural understanding.”

The program’s Global Service and Peace Corps Prep certificate consists of 25 credit hours that include courses in international studies, foreign language, service-learning and a capstone project.

Applicants interested in applying to the Peace Corps after graduation should also complete 100 service hours that correspond with one of the six Peace Corps work sectors.

These include education, health, environment, agriculture, youth development and community economic development identified in the certificate, Kalentzidou said.

Students interested in applying for the Peace Corps Prep program can attend an advising workshop and fill out the online application form.

Brown said she thinks the program will be beneficial because it allows for a more comprehensive understanding of the Peace Corps and for participants to gain volunteer experience in the sector they are interested in applying to.

“The Peace Corps program has a competitive application process,” Kalentzidou said. “You need to have more qualifications.”

Brown said she plans on

applying to medical school and anticipates the Peace Corps application process will be as intense and competitive.

However, students who complete the program are 30 percent more likely to be considered during the Peace Corps application process, Kalentzidou said.

Brown said her desire to be in the Peace Corps stems from both her studies and desire to help others abroad.

“I want everyone to understand cultures better,” Brown said. “Plus, there’s lots of professional training in the Peace Corps that is great experience to take into health care field.”

If admitted to the Peace Corps, Brown said she hopes to work with Michelle Obama’s initiative Let Girls Learn.

The program, created in 2015, works to advance educational offerings for girls globally.

This next summer, Brown said she plans on working at the Middle Way House, a center for women and children who experience domestic abuse here in Bloomington.

“It is something I have a strong passion for,” Brown said. “Domestic violence is the same process here in the U.S. and in other places.”

With her volunteer ex-

“The whole point of the Peace Corps is to volunteer and make the world a better place. That is the cheesy answer.

But I think other countries don’t look at Americans and think we are philanthropic people. They see us and think we’re all from Miami. I want to change the perspective of how other people view Americans.”

The IU Student Association added a new executive department to its ranks this year to deal with issues of sustainability on campus.

The Sustainability Department’s first goals will be to assess environmental problems that students encounter daily, such as the number of recycling bins on campus or inefficient light use in buildings.

The IUSA Sustainability Department will seek to work with other sustainability and environmental groups, such as the Student Sustainability Council and the Office of Sustainability, on campus to better understand what policy they can realistically implement on campus and what the student body’s immediate sustainability needs are.

“It’s one of the most pressing issues of our generation,” said Parker Angelos, head of the IUSA Sustainability Department. “The world is going to change, and we have to react and be progressive or our lives are going to change for the worse.”

The IUSA Sustainability Department works to gather groups that can serve as a round table for sustainability ideas and collaborate on campus-wide projects. They also hope to reach out to other universities’ sustainability groups to see what has been effective and what could be adapted to help improve IU, Angelos said.

The Sustainability Department also plans to work closely with Reinvest IU, which aims to divest money IU has spent on fossil fuel

resources and reinvest these funds into sustainable fuel and other environmentally friendly causes.

Members of the IUSA Sustainability Department also serve on other sustainability councils across campus.

“The importance of sustainability transcends academic interests,” Angelos said.

He also had advice on what students could do to live more sustainably without joining a club.

“Living sustainably is one of the easiest things you can do,” Angelos said. “Turn off your lights, unplug your electric devices, take shorter, cold showers. Maybe some people are deterred by that, but as time progresses these issues are going to become much more pressing and much more internationally important.”

The department meets for the first time Tuesday night to finalize goals, discuss policy and talk about how to integrate into the greater IU sustainability community.

“Institutionalizing ‘sustainability’ as a department was an integral part of the IUSA agenda to ensure that we can dedicate resources to the cause and let our interested staffers have a department for their cause,” Sara Zaheer, IUSA president, said in an e-mail. “Fortunately, Sustainability is on the Bicentennial agenda and there are plenty of resources available across campus that we can more easily engage with through our new department so this should be an exciting year of growth for all of us.”

Lucy Brown, IU student ambassador for the Peace Corps Alison Graham Editor-in-Chief

periences both locally and internationally, Brown said she wants to be a part of the Peace Corps for both professional and personal reasons.

“The whole point of the Peace Corps is to volunteer and make the world a better place,” Brown said. “That is the cheesy answer. But I think other countries don’t look at Americans and think we are philanthropic people. They see us and think we’re all from Miami. I want to change the perspective of how other people view Americans.”

Police teach hostage negotiation to citizens

By Dominick Jean drjean@indiana.edu | @dominojean

Bloomington Police Department Sgt. Lucas Tate laid his bulletproof vest, bullhorn and other hostage negotiation gear on a table in front of 13 civilians Tuesday night.

Each person had signed up for the Bloomington Citizens’ Police Academy, an 11week program that will meet every Tuesday to showcase police techniques for different situations.

BPD Capt. Steve Kellams, Sgts. Pam Gladish and Tate educated citizens on everything from police data to hostage negotiation and crime prevention at this event.

Gladish said this program is a great opportunity for the community to understand what BPD does in different situations.

“These are all the things we could use on a daily basis,” Gladish said.

Kellams let attendees know just how helpful and easily available data on policing and crimes is for everyone.

Kellams said it is essential for BPD to be efficient in community policing and what he called intelligence-led policing.

“To prevent crime, I have to understand it,” Kellams said.

Kellams said intelligenceled policing is all about un-

derstanding where crime happens and how often it happens and using that data to prevent crimes. Kellams compared this type of policing to fishing on the lake.

“I have to go fishing where the fish are,” Kellams said.

“That’s where I’m going to put my people.”

Gladish confirmed this and said if a criminal finds two out of three cars on a certain block are unlocked, he will probably come back.

With limited manpower, less than 100 active duty officers, Kellams said BPD can’t be everywhere.

Police and crime data shows police where patterns of crimes happen and is available to the public through the City of Bloomington website.

Kellams said BPD has moved to a transparent approach to help foster an understanding with the community. Anyone can take the raw data on the website and analyze it.

“If you like numbers, have fun with it.” Kellams said.

Community policing is about making sure BPD officers are known to community members. Kellams said when he worked the night shift he knew almost every convenience store clerk and newspaper boy.

“Just get to know the people.” Kellams said.

Gladish said through

groups like the neighborhood watch, downtown resource officers and social media, BPD ensures the community knows about recent crimes and breaking news and is familiar with BPD officers.

DROs function as assistance for those in the downtown portion of Blooming-

ton who are in danger either emotionally or mentally. They are identified by their white, short-sleeve uniforms.

Gladish said sometimes people say they do not want to talk to a regular BPD officer and ask for a white shirt to help them instead. DROs work with people to calm

them down and then often help homeless and others in getting help and resources.

Kellams said BPD has some of the most well-trained officers in the country and he is one of the people that goes around training police officers across the country.

“I’ll take our guys and put

them up against theirs any day any time,” Kellams said.

Gladish spoke next on the importance of crime prevention and BPD efforts to reach out to the community for that purpose.

It is vital that information be shared in order to prevent crime, Gladish said.

Bloomington families watch a live demonstration on how a oppossum manages to play dead during WildCare Inc.’s “Science Live: Smart Animals” on March 24, 2016, at the Wonderlab. Jennifer Jenkins, the museum's visitor services manager, recently received the Lt. Governor's Hoosier Hospitality Award.

WonderLab’s visitor manager receives hospitality award From IDS Reports

Jennifer Jenkins of the WonderLab Museum of Science, Health & Technology received the Lt. Governor’s Hoosier Hospitality Award in August at the Indiana State Fair.

The WonderLab’s visitor services manager was one of 18 recipients recognized for work in the tourism field, according to the Indiana Office of Tourism Development.

The award is a testament to the WonderLab’s efforts in science, technology, engineering and math education in Bloomington and across the state.

Marketing director Greg

Meitus said Jenkins makes people feel welcome to the museum above all else.

“We were really happy to see Jennifer nominated,” Meitus, noting her work as an example of the WonderLab’s pride in its customer service, said.

Meitus said Jenkins is incredibly warm and excited to help kids and families visiting the museum while overseeing all visitor services staff.

Having welcomed visitors from 78 out of Indiana’s 80 counties, the WonderLab hopes to broaden its educational outreach.

The museum is currently consulting with the Community Foundation of

Bloomington and Monroe County to increase visiting hours or expand floor space, Meitus said.

“WonderLab began with women who were doing science outreach out of the back of their cars,” Meitus said.

He said the museum provides opportunities that kids don’t typically get to have in school.

“What makes WonderLab unique is its approach to education,” Meitus said.

He said in the museum, kids are free to hypothesize about the world.

Jenkins was unavailable for comment on her award.

League of Women Voters works to increase turnout From IDS Reports

Getting potential voters registered and informed about local candidates and issues in the upcoming November elections are the goals of the League of Women Voters of BloomingtonMonroe County during this election cycle.

Every Saturday through Oct. 9, league members will staff a table at the Bloomington Community Farmers’ Market, offering election and voter registration information and assisting with online voter registration, according to a League of Women Voters press release.

In September and October, a number of free public events sponsored jointly by the League of Women Voters and the Monroe County

Public Library are scheduled to help with these initiatives.

On Tuesday, there was an informational session focusing on county government, according to the release.

In preparation for the election of county officials in November, former county commissioners Charlotte Zietlow and Joyce Poling will discuss what the commissioners do and what it takes to be effective within the position.

Seven candidate forums will appear in the Monroe County Public Library Auditorium, each of them beginning at 7 p.m. After brief introductions, the candidates will answer questions submitted by the audience and posed by panelists, according to the release.

Questions may also be submitted in advance by sending an email directly to the League of Women Voters at lwvforums@gmail.com.

Advance questions must include a notation of the race for which the question is intended.

The “Be a Voter” web page is a service provided on the website of the MCPL. It offers information on voter registration and early voting, as well as a schedule for the candidate forums, according to the release.

A collaboration between the MCPL and the League, it will be updated as further information, including the ballot, becomes available. The “Be a Voter” page can be found at http://mcpl.info/vote.

Shane Gibson is getting kids out of the classroom and into nature and encouraging them to think about the earth as part of them — not just the planet they live on.

Gibson, environmental education director for Sycamore Land Trust, will bring his free curriculum of hikes, hands-on demonstrations and education to several school districts, including Monroe County Community Schools Corporation this fall, according to a press release.

Last year, Sycamore Land Trust’s environmental education director made more than 10 visits to four different classrooms in the Monroe County school district.

Sycamore Land Trust, a regional non-profit organization, was founded in 1990.

A land trust is a non-profit organization that works to conserve land through acquisition or holding land easements — a legal agreement between a landowner and a land trust or government agency to permanently limit use of the land in order to protect its conservation value.

There are currently 1,700 land trusts across the U.S. Sycamore Land Trust offers these educational programs to get kids thinking about nature and not as something to fear.

Amy Perfetti, communications director for Sycamore Land Trust, said Gib-

son will do 10 hour-long programs to build the connection with classroom students and teachers.

“He takes kids on a path of educating them on the environment through handson activities and classroom activities to really connect them with nature in other ways,” Perfetti said.

He spends time with the students with cross-disciplinary lessons such as reading a book and going outside to talk about the questions raised by the book and what the students observe, according to the release.

Gibson was honored as a 2016 Community Partner with the MCCSC for his 90 hours of work in the district last year.

Perfetti says the environmental education program is important to put in classrooms, because the younger someone is when they get in touch with nature, the

longer it will last throughout their life.

“It becomes more important to you when it’s been a part of your life,” Perfetti said. “A lot of people who aren’t around nature won’t think about it, and then when they get around a bug or a tree they haven’t seen before, they don’t know what to do.”

For teachers who want to use the environmental education programs in their classrooms, visit sycamorelandtrust.org/environmental-education.

Perfetti said the trust hopes the long term programming in classrooms will help kids understand on a deeper level the connections between the Earth and their own lives.

“It all impacts us, and impacts the earth,” Perfetti said.

“Once you have the personal experience you want to take care of it more.”

Much anew about nothing

SNL is a white guy’s game

Colin Dombrowski is a freshman in marketing.

My favorite edition of Shakespeare’s plays isn’t the “First Folio,” the Globe edition or even the “Complete Pelican Shakespeare.”

My favorite edition is the “No Fear Shakespeare” series published by none other than SparkNotes.

Now, as someone studying English at IU, I’m sure this statement is likely to earn me some enemies, and maybe even some death threats from my fellow students — and potentially even professors.

I’m sure after the initial screaming, most of my fellow English lovers would ask, “Why would you ever think that?”

Admittedly, that’s a good question.

Personally, I love Shakespeare. He’s a masterful wit, and he writes some of the most magnificent monologues in all of literature.

However, his writing is archaic. This isn’t to say it isn’t relevant.

His works have incredible commentaries on the human condition. Many of the overarching themes in his novels are more pertinent now than ever.

The only problem I have with Shakespeare is simply the outdated nature of the text.

This issue isn’t an isolated one. After all, even the Sistine Chapel frescoes were refurbished just a few decades ago.

When it comes to reading and watching his plays, so many of his witty jokes end up soaring over the head of the average viewer, only to be caught by Shakespeare scholars and historians.

Yet, those very historians will tell you that this isn’t the way the Bard wanted his plays to be viewed.

At the time, the average viewer — drunken groundlings included — would have appreciated the references and jokes he made, whereas the modern viewer simply doesn’t understand them.

While scholars will point to footnotes, in live productions these aren’t present.

Not to mention, in texts, footnotes tend to explain away the humor.

Further, the centerpiece of Shakespeare isn’t his beautiful syntax or artistic flair — it’s his deeply human ideas.

He’s renowned as a playwright because of his stories and themes.

A modern rendition doesn’t take those away, it just makes them more applicable to a modern audience.

There are plenty of movies that have already taken this idea to heart, including “She’s the Man” and “The Lion King.”

The point is, Shakespeare’s art is so much more than his language, and at least for 21st century viewers, much of his language doesn’t do his art justice.

Now, let me clarify myself in saying that I don’t think “No Fear Shakespeare” is a good final product, but I think it’s a good step towards what we need — a Shakespeare translation.

The SparkNotes version is far too simplistic and admittedly takes out some of the beautifully grand and sweeping phrases that are so distinctive to his plays.

What I think we need is someone with a powerful wit — and likely a massive ego — to undertake the project of reworking these plays for a modern audience, keeping the best of the old while translating the the obsolete.

At the same time, I don’t think we should completely let go of the old.

It’s always worthwhile to study the traditional texts, and as an English student, I certainly plan to.

All I’m asking for is a date night watching “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” without having to refer to my Elizabethan thesaurus. ctdombro@indiana.edu

CAUGHT RED-HANDED Wells Fargo scandal is a massive betrayal of trust Banks are trusted to care for our money. So what happens when that trust is violated? Wells Fargo found out.

For those unfamiliar with the scandal revealed earlier last week, at least 5,300 Wells Fargo employees were caught creating more than 2 million bank and credit card accounts that were not authorized by customers.

When these accounts were created, the employees were given compensation as an incentive to convince customers to open accounts with the company. Or in this case, open them without permission.

Customers were left in the dark for months, possibly years, mysteriously receiving minor charges that many never even realized were there to begin with.

Only customers who kept a close watch on their accounts noticed these fees associated with these “ghost” accounts.

The attempt to gain

additional commission for opening these accounts backfired when the company began receiving complaints from said customers.

Being pressured to open accounts by any means necessary seems to have pushed the employees to their breaking point.

Anxiously trying to reach company goals, employees were desperately looking for additional ways to bring in more commission. And Wells Fargo is going to pay for it.

On top of agreeing to pay a combined total of $185 million in fines, they have also agreed to pay all affected customers full restitution for fees associated with the “ghost” accounts.

So far, they have refunded nearly $2.6 million to these customers and estimate that another $2.5 million is on its way.

Although these complaints have now been addressed, it brings to question how long the com-

plaints were being hidden or ignored before they were taken seriously. Some of the fraudulent activity was traced to previous years, which suggests that these fees have most likely been ignored for quite a while.

The crooked employees made up a total of approximately two percent of the company’s total employment country-wide. While most of these employees were terminated immediately after discovering the scandal, it leaves us wondering how many more are out there who may not have been caught.

If any employees slipped through the cracks and were not reprimanded or terminated, how can we continue to trust that our money is in good hands?

The short answer — we can’t. Wells Fargo has been known to aggressively push their employees to open multiple accounts at the same time.

They use manipulative tactics and claim that it is in

the customer’s best interest to open more than one account at a time.

While it may have been the employees creating the accounts, there is nothing to say the company and their workplace culture isn’t somewhat responsible.

This is not to say that the 5,300 employees are not to blame, but it’s clear that Wells Fargo has created intimidating and unreasonable goals for their employees.

A line has to be drawn between the aforementioned behavior and compensating employees for high performance.

This leaves us wondering if it was worth it for Wells Fargo to create such aggressive goals for employees.

And while millions of dollars in fines may only be a small blip on a massive revenue of $90 billion, customers will likely never fully allow themselves to trust Wells Fargo again.

STEVE’S CONSERVATIVE CORNER

Evan Bayh is set to lose the Indiana Senate race The election is 54 days away , and the clock is ticking. Since Evan Bayh entered the race for U.S. Senate against Rep. Todd Young, RInd., 62 days ago, Bayh’s lead has decreased by 17 points.

There is a reason that such as massive lead has shrunk in such a short time.

Hoosiers across the state are figuring out that Evan Bayh is a sham.

First, there has been great controversy surrounding Bayh’s residency in Indiana.

After Bayh’s last term in the Senate, which ended in early 2011, he moved to Washington D.C. permanently, listing his two multimillion-dollar homes there as his primary residence.

Bayh’s monthly electric bills have averaged less than $20 per month at his Indiana condo since 2012, suggesting little, if any, use.

One “neighbor” that’s lived by Bayh’s condo in Indianapolis for three years

had no idea he even lived there.

To add to Bayh’s conundrum, his Indiana voting status is “inactive.”

This is similar to the residence controversy that led former Republican Senator Richard Lugar’s primary defeat to Richard Mourdock in 2012.

If Lugar, a beloved sixterm senator, isn’t safe from a residency scandal, neither is Bayh.

Hoosiers aren’t wrong to expect that their elected officials actually live in their state. If you are representing us, you should be one of us.

Bayh can’t even remember his Indianapolis address.

Meanwhile, he continues to claim that he never left.

To add to these problems, Bayh’s voting record in the Senate is dubious at best.

In 12 years in the Senate, Bayh passed a measly two bills. Bayh also cast the deciding vote in the Patient

Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, or Obamacare. Two years on from his decisive vote, he publically admitted that the Medical Device tax, a major part of Obamacare, kills American jobs — including thousands in Indiana — and global competitiveness.

When their times in the U.S. Senate overlapped, Bayh voted with former senator and current president Barack Obama 96 percent of the time and with Hillary Clinton 85 percent of the time.

Bayh left the Senate in early January 2011. Less than a month later, he took lobbying positions with major D.C. firm McGuireWoods LLP, where he lobbied against Obamacare, and private equity firm Apollo Global Management on Wall Street. Bayh is bought by special interests.

It’s this lack of integrity and accountability that

STEVEN ARANYI is a senior in history.

makes Bayh such a dangerous figure for Hoosiers.

These votes undoubtedly hurt Hoosier families.

How can Bayh be trusted to represent Hoosiers?

To put it plainly, he can’t.

Evan Bayh has demonstrated great arrogance by thinking he can come back to Indiana and reclaim what he believes is rightfully his.

Bayh’s long track record of hurting Hoosiers will speak for itself this November. If I were Bayh, I would be very worried about this race.

If he thinks he can fool Hoosiers, he can’t.

Bayh has never lost an election, but this will be his first defeat of his career. staranyi@indiana.edu @TweetsByAranyi

Comedy has historically been a white guy’s game.

It is not uncommon to go to an improv show in Chicago on a Saturday night and be greeted by four white men wearing New Balance sneakers and a variant of the same plaid button down.

A lot of things are a white guy’s game, of course, but representation in comedy often takes the media spotlight — literally.

Undoubtedly, Saturday Night Live has the most name recognition of any comedy program on television.

So it only seems right that its cast should be representative of its wide and diverse audience.

Over the years, SNL has made a concerted effort to diversify its cast. In its most recent round of castings, creator Lorne Michaels has hired the show’s first Latina performer, Melissa Villaseñor.

While this is a step forward to diversify this show’s cast, I cannot help but fear that it may not last long, given SNL’s history of hiring and firing.

Last month, Michaels inexplicably fired three cast members, including top dogs Taran Killam and Jay Pharoah.

Pharoah was one of only three black males on the show.

While Pharoah has not spoken out about the sudden end of his contract, Killam seemed notably blindsided by the decision in an interview with Uproxx.

The cause for the constant cast shuffle seems to be SNL’s roller coaster-like ratings. The show is currently experiencing a low-rating period, which is historically uncharacteristic because it is an election year.

The sudden and frequent casting changes mean that while there may be a diverse group with rich backgrounds on one season, that diversity could be gone on the next season if the sketches are not deemed up to snuff.

And while the idea of having a more representative cast is very appealing, that representation is strongest when it can exist on television for more than nine months at a time.

This is especially the case in an environment like SNL’s, where newcomers are rarely recognized and are often only featured in the background for a few seasons,.

These switch-ups can result in very little screen time for new non-white talent like Villaseñor.

All that for a show that is only sometimes funny.

This is why, while SNL does reach a very large audience, it may not be the best platform for showcasing new voices.

Shows like “Blackish,” “Master of None” and “The Mindy Project” arguably do a lot more to represent comedic minorities, as they highlight them for longer periods of time.

That allows viewers to actually understand their humor and truly see what they are capable of.

Even less well-known comedy programs like the 2 Dope Queens podcast or the 3Peat improv show at iO Chicago can showcase lesserheard voices a little better, even if the audiences themselves aren’t as large.

The performers in these venues are not bound by a fear that they will be fired suddenly if they cannot produce a killer Joe Biden impression.

A young person with dreams of a career in comedy could see, from these shows, that someone like them can really make it — and not just for as long as Lorne Michaels tells them they can. meickhof@indiana.edu @maggie_eickhoff

FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH

Learning how to code should be accessible for all By now, college-aged Americans are all too familiar with the institutional challenges that face them in the workforce.

Though it is certainly more true in certain disciplines than others, the proverbial millennial gripe of being unable to find jobs is supported by extensive research. According to the Economic Policy Institute, 22.1 percent of young college graduates are unemployed or underemployed, compared to just 15.1 percent less than a decade ago.

Meanwhile, in June, U.S. job growth totaled 287,000 — the strongest surge in eight months.

This inequity is troubling. So, what gives?

Job growth has been strong for some time. The

problem that plagues new job seekers lies in a lack of valuable qualifications, not a shortage of employment.

This is why the U.S., as well as the private sector, must continue to make investments in efforts to teach youth the foundations of computer science and coding.

Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics suggest that one million computer science-related jobs will be unfilled by 2020. Computing skills are in high demand, and these positions generally pay good salaries and offer a high degree of upward mobility and opportunity for professional growth.

Though concerning statistics like these are helping to direct some level of

awareness to the importance of computer education, efforts have been severely lacking.

On Tuesday, Apple released a new app called “Swift Playgrounds” which will teach children the foundations of computer programming through games and other accessible platforms.

This forward-thinking idea is certainly worthy of applause.

The problem, though, is these apps are only compatible with iPads. The students that would benefit the most from learning these valuable skills generally go to the schools that are among the most underfunded and hail from the households that are least financially equipped to provide them

with expensive tools such as iPads.

The idea of making these tools accessible only to those with access to iPads undoubtedly gives way to a self-perpetuating cycle — if you’re poor, you can’t afford an iPad. If you can’t afford an iPad, you’ll never have access to these wonderful resources, so you’ll probably never learn how to code.

And sadly, considering this and other societal inequities, you’ll probably stay poor.

Other coding resources that are developed with accessibility in mind are often criticized for being overly simplistic. Writing for Quartz, Idit Harel posited that the numerous “moviebranded coding apps” that “provide quick experiences

of drag-and-drop code entertainment” don’t go far enough in teaching the underlying theories, purposes and applications of coding and computer science.

In May, French business tycoon Xavier Niel announced plans to invest $100 million to bring his French-based, tuition-free coding school, 42, to the U.S. In addition to teaching individuals aged 18 to 30 real-world skills to succeed in an increasingly-digital economy, the school will provide up to 600 dormitories for those unable to pay for housing.

Moving forward, federal agencies and tech companies should take a page out of Niel’s book and consider more substantive methods

of teaching youth computing skills.

The basic concept and intent behind the development of “Swift Playgrounds” is laudable, but it’s not accessible to those who need it most.

Other coding apps don’t dig deep enough to develop children into young professionals.

With initiatives like Niel’s 42, progress can be made against that figure of one million unfilled computing jobs by 2020. dkilcull@indiana.edu @daniel_kilc_

Obama’s increased funding in Laos is hypocritical

“Activists” shouldn’t be so destructive

President Obama used his visit to Laos last week to announce increased funding for efforts to clear the unexploded cluster submunitions that the U.S. secretly dropped in Laos between 1964 and 1973.

As Obama admitted in his speech, the U.S. “dropped more than two million tons of bombs on Laos — more than we dropped on Germany and Japan combined during all of WWII. It made Laos, per person, the most heavily bombed country in history ... Villages and entire valleys were obliterated ... Countless civilians were killed.”

The unexploded bomb-

lets in Laos, estimated to total roughly 80 million, have killed 20,000 Laotians since the end of the war.

Obama’s pledge of $90 million (enough to clear only a fraction of the remaining bomblets) is tinged with a note of hypocrisy.

Cluster munitions maximize damage by scattering bomblets across a wide area.

Because they can kill civilians for decades after being dropped, 119 countries signed onto the Convention on Cluster Munitions in 2008, banning their use.

The United States still refuses to sign the convention and has employed cluster

munitions in every major conflict since the Korean War. Cluster munitions have been included in the over $100 billion in weapons sales to Saudi Arabia under the Obama administration.

As Saudi Arabia wages a brutal war on Yemen, consistently bombing hospitals, marketplaces and other civilian targets, human rights organizations like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have called on the U.S. to cease arms sales to Saudi Arabia.

The Obama Administration has opposed congressional efforts to stop cluster munition sales to Saudi Ara-

bia and recently announced a new $1.15 billion arms deal with the country.

That deal may exclude cluster munitions, seeing as the leading American manufacturer of the weapons, Textron Defense Systems, has just decided to stop producing them.

President Obama must make the connection between the atrocities in Laos and those continuing in Yemen. It’s time for the U.S. to sign the Convention on Cluster Munitions, in addition to ending our role in the destruction of Yemen.

Jill Stein’s Green Party won’t last in this election Like years past, the Green Party once again is failing this election season due to its contentedness in simply tossing out a candidate for president while not contesting lower elections or focusing on grassroots organization.

Instead, they champion dangerous anti-vaccination and anti-GMO stances which likely repulse many progressive voters and ultimately damage their brand.

More individuals who study politics, such as myself, are turned off by presidential candidate Jill Stein’s completely infeasible policy proposals that are indicative of an individual with a

complete lack of legislative experience.

For example, Stein’s proposal to use entirely green energy by 2030 would require absolutely monumental investment and infrastructure — far-beyond what the president is capable of doing unilaterally.

Her fiery contempt toward both Democrats and Republicans would further complicate matters if she ever actually sought to see her unspecific policies achieved in the reality that she somehow wins the race for the White House.

Although I have a strong desire to see the Green Party succeed on a local

and state levels, I find millennials’ support of Jill Stein this election season problematic.

Supporting Jill Stein and the Greens this election season doesn’t further progress ideology any more than a vote for Donald Trump does.

With the pending Supreme Court vacancy and the potential for a Vice President, with fraudulent bank and credit card accounts that were not authorized by customers resident, could serve as the tie-breaker in the U.S. Senate.

It is essential that progressives weigh the value of a protest vote on an objec-

tively poor candidate versus the vote of someone seemingly bothersome but who will ultimately help progressive movements going into the future.

After my own personal evaluation, even as a former Bernie Sanders supporter, I know that I will be supporting Hillary Clinton and the entire slate of Democratic candidates for office this November.

It is easier to fix a corrupt system by working to better it on the inside rather than simply shouting at it to change from the outside.

George Pearcy, Bloomington

I am writing in response to the so-called “activists” that vandalized the Monroe County Democratic Party’s office on Thursday afternoon.

These kind of actions are unproductive at best. What would someone hope to accomplish, seriously, by doing these things – stealing food, harassing people and destroying office supplies?

I urge the participants to do some critical thinking be-

fore taking any future action.

Next time, maybe try and conceive of some form of protest that doesn’t come off as extremely juvenile and destructive. I would also suggest the participants learn from these mistakes so that they don’t end up in the prison system they abhor for a foolish and senseless act.

It’s possible to raise healthy, vegan children Thousands of conscientious parents have risen, or are currently raising, healthy vegan children. It’s disrespectful to criticize them because of one negligent couple in Italy.

Vegan foods, which are cholesterol-free, generally low in saturated fat, and rich in complex carbohydrates, protein, fiber, and other nutrients, are optimal for children.

According to the late Dr. Benjamin Spock, one of America’s most renowned child care experts, “Children who grow up getting their nutrition from plant foods rather than meats have a tremendous health advantage. They are less likely to develop weight problems, diabetes, high blood pressure, and some forms of cancer.”

Responsible parents teach

their children not to smoke because cigarettes cause cancer and other health problems.

For the same reason, they should make sure their kids don’t get hooked on hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken nuggets, cheese pizza and other unhealthy foods.

By feeding children healthy vegan meals, including fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes, we can help them develop a taste for wholesome, nutritious foods.

The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and respected nutritionists everywhere encourage people of all ages to eat plant-based meals.

The art of mental health Local therapist talks mental health, wellness at the Venue Fine Art & Gifts

By Emily Jones emkjones@indiana.edu | @emkkjones

Dr. Karin Drummond, aglow from the presentation screen behind her, stood in a darkened room of the Venue Fine Art & Gifts.

Participating in the discussion Tuesday night were students seated next to retired community members.

Despite the age gap, audience members had one thing in common: they wanted to get better or knew someone who did.

Drummond, a chiropractor and physical therapist based in Bloomington, had come to deliver a 90-minute talk titled “The Art of Positive Mental Health.”

Three different categories of wellness — eat and hydrate, sleep and think, and exercise and stretch — were outlined.

In eat and hydrate, Drummond covered the basics of nutrition.

Such as taking vitamins B and C for brain development and anti-aging properties and calculating one’s daily water intake based on weight.

Interspersed with exercise strategies — for example, yoga during TV breaks or installing an exercise bar in your bathroom — were tips for restful sleep.

Before bedtime, amber-tinted glasses can block screen light and promote relaxation.

version can give the lymphatic system a boost.

The delicate link between mental and physical health was also a common theme Tuesday night.

Audience members frequently volunteered their own experiences.

Michelle Martin-Colman, wife of Venue curator Gabe Coleman, said her dad committed suicide.

“We really do need to live in a time when we take responsibility for bullying and suicide,” she said. “It’s one thing to be part of a charity and do the walk, but why don’t we start by just taking care of the person next to us?”

Drummond agreed and offered further advice in a tone neither conventional nor formal, but rather one that was derived from personal experience.

“I almost succumbed to my depression, but I was able to climb out of the hole with these methods,” Drummond said. “I’m grateful I now

get to be a partner in health to people, an educator. That’s what a doctor should be.”

Drummond said much of her motivation came to her while she battled a chronic illness as a child.

“I was getting worse and worse, and they just wanted to give me more pills. At one of my hospital stays my mom signed the do-not-sue-us papers — that’s when I knew we had to leave.”

From that day on, Drummond and her mother turned to chiropractors and nutritionists for advice.

It seemed to pay off.

After months of modifying her diet, she finally emerged with a clean bill of health.

Another discussion point of the night was the danger in America’s pill-pushing culture.

“There’s no substitute for plant-based vitamins,” Drummond said. “Omega 3s have been shown to provide the same benefits as Ritalin, for instance.”

In light of World Suicide Prevention Day on Sept. 10, Drummond said she believes small steps toward physical health are not to be overlooked.

“Even turning your head around, finding something physical you like to do,” Drummond said.“We’re social creatures too. If you’re part of a team, you can’t let them down. Maybe it’s adopting a dog, taking it on walks. You never know what treasures you will find.”

Andrew Gutman fights through Maryland defenders during Friday evening's match up at Bill Armstrong Stadium.

Hoosiers set for 1st road game

By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali

The Hoosier men’s soccer team has already faced three top-25 teams this season and still have a full Big Ten slate ahead of them.

After drawing with Maryland in the conference opener without its top defender, No. 3 IU will head north Wednesday to face Michigan for its first true road game of the year.

IU will welcome back junior defender Grant Lillard after he missed the contest against the Terrapins due to a one-game red card suspension. Despite the absence of Lillard, the Hoosier defense was able to hold the highpowered Maryland offense scoreless until the final three minutes and found positive results through different contributors on the pitch.

Sophomore Timmy Mehl made his first career start on the backline in place of Lillard and earned high praise from his teammates and IU Coach Todd Yeagley. Sophomore defender Andrew Gutman, with more of an attacking mindset without Lillard, fired off a season-high five shots.

“I feel confident on in whoever we put on the backline,” Gutman said. “Timmy Mehl came in for his first start, and he played like a veteran.

Anyone we put back there it is just communication, and coach teaches us a lot of good things so I feel confident.”

IU also lost sophomore midfielder Francesco Moore late in the match against Maryland.

With Moore squirming on the field in pain, he was removed, and the Terrapins found the back of the net just three minutes after.

Yeagley said that Moore is key on the Hoosier defense because he plugs holes in the middle of the field, is able to get on second balls extremely well and is another key piece that IU needs back in their starting lineup against Michigan.

“He’s just a smart player and is really important to us, so that hurt,” Yeagley said.

“Without Frankie and Grant, it hurts us a little bit in that first and second ball, the ability to defend that once the ball goes a little bit long.”

With the way IU rallied without its top defender for more than 70 minutes against the defending national champions and the entire game against No. 4 team in the nation, there’s no reason to believe the Hoosiers won’t continue to do the same this week. The Wolverines are still

winless after their first five games and have totaled just five goals on the season.

Michigan sophomore midfielder Francis Atuahene leads the team in goals scored with two in only three games this season. Michigan has had all but one of its games play into extra time, which magnifies the team’s lack of offense.

Although the competition isn’t going to be as vigorous as the previous three matchups, the Hoosiers said they know that they can’t overlook any team in the Big Ten. “The Big Ten is one of the most physical conferences in the whole country,” senior goalkeeper Collin Webb said before the conference season. “Every game is a battle so if you’re not having a good technical day, teams can just muck it up maybe grind out a result.”

College football season is great.

The smell of tailgating — real tailgating, not getting day-drunk in the name of sports — crisp fall air, all that typical stuff that makes you want to put on a hoodie for your favorite team and yell insults at men who take the field to beat it makes it great.

On Saturday, we got to have all those warm fuzzies inside as we watched the Hoosiers play one half of a football game. Then, we watched the Hoosiers watch the Cardinals play football.

Actually, after the Marching Hundred’s awesome 1960s set, I noticed a significantly lower number of people in the student section than there had been at kickoff. So I guess it’d be more accurate to say 41,374 of us watched the Hoosiers in the first half.

Now, if you pay even a modicum of attention to IU sports, you know Hoosier football doesn’t have the greatest fan retention rate.

People come for kickoff. IU scores, and maybe the other team scores. But once fans think they’ve seen enough to determine the outcome, they leave.

Throughout the first half, you get the people leaving out of boredom, out of spite or because they’re too drunk to stand for the eternity that is a college football game.

Flashback time: when I was a kid, my uncle took me to a Chicago White Sox game every year. Every year, we left in the 7th or 8th inning, and I never understood why. Maybe it’s because I have major Fear Of Missing Out in every aspect of my life, or maybe it’s because I just really like baseball, but I was so afraid that by leaving early, I would

miss something huge.

Now, is that likely with IU football? Maybe not. But remember last year’s Michigan double-overtime game when everyone was ready to rush the field just in case IU actually did win? What an exhilarating feeling.

Those of you who left after Michigan’s first score probably don’t remember.

It’s probably a stretch to assume Ball State was able to shut out IU in the fourth quarter 17-0 because IU fans left when the Hoosiers hit that 30-point lead. But who knows for sure. Maybe junior quarterback Richard Lagow finds motivation in a stadium full of his peers cheering.

I’ve seen people leave early in the game because they think they know how it will turn out. IU starts the game on the right foot or the wrong foot, so obviously we already know how it will turn out.

But what I find incredibly interesting is that students are willing to pay $10 to enter the stadium, watch for 10 minutes, and leave.

You know what else you could get with $10 instead of wasting it on 10 minutes of football?

A nice meal at Buffa Louie’s. Almost two Little 500 deals from Pizza X. Five drinks on $2 Tuesday.

So, fans, Make up your mind. Come and enjoy some football — as much as you can enjoy IU football — or just don’t. Just stop being so wishy-washy. jzega@indiana.edu

Senior leads IU to 7th place

Junior linebacker Marcus Oliver forces a fumble early in IU’s game against Ball State on Saturday at memorial stadium. Tom Allen’s defense has already recorded six turnovers in the first two games of the season.

Tom Allen bringing early success to IU’s defense

By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu @TaylorRLehman

Before the season started, IU defensive coordinator Tom Allen said earning the IU job meant a lot to him.

His family lives in Indiana.

He grew up in New Castle, Indiana and he coached schools like Ben Davis High School and Marion High School from 1997 to 2006. He earned his master’s degree at IU in 2002.

He said he knows the area, and after filling 11 coaching jobs in 24 years, he said he understands nothing is guaranteed long-term.

So what has he done shortterm for the Hoosiers in 2016?

He’s turned a 3-4 defense into a 4-2-5, introduced a husky position that features the Big Ten Freshman of the Week in Marcelino Ball and helped lead the 2-0 Hoosier defense to a more impressive start than in 2015.

“I tell them I don’t care about mistakes because they’re going to happen,” Allen said after IU’s win against Florida International on Sept.

1. “But I want you to play your tails off and tackle.”

There’s been something different about Allen since he arrived in Bloomington.

IU Coach Kevin Wilson hired Allen during the job interview because of a connection the coach said he felt with Allen. Then, after the inter-

view, Wilson had to call Allen again to ask him what defensive scheme he ran.

The players always comment on how much energy Allen brings to the defense and how passionate he is about coaching. Wilson agreed and said sometimes the coordinator even becomes too positive.

But the genuine excitement Allen exuded during junior linebacker Tegray Scales’ interception return for a touchdown at FIU is something IU fans are not used to seeing. Wilson has called timeouts in the past just to yell at referees about blown calls, but a coordinator acting so emphatic?

That’s something new.

“My wife asked me what I was thinking,” Allen said about his touchdown celebration. “And I said, ‘I really wasn’t.’ It’s usually just a reaction, but that’s a first for me.”

Whatever it is — giving players quizzes about defensive obligations, having oneon-one talks with every defensive player or referring to turnovers as takeaways because of the aggressive connotation — it’s creating that new culture Wilson longed for when searching for a new defensive coordinator.

It’s translating into results on the field. The Hoosier defense that was in the cellar of the Big Ten in most statistical categories is now ranked 10th out of 14 in total defense and

third in turnovers with six in two games.

A defensive line that has played nearly a dozen linemen has allowed just 230 rushing yards in two games after allowing an average of 195 per game in 2015. Junior linebacker Marcus Oliver and sophomore safety Jonathan Crawford — who have just one full year of consistent starting experience each — have 13 and 12 tackles respectively.

Ball, who has two games of collegiate football experience, is tied with Oliver for the team lead in tackles.

Players like junior safety Tony Fields and senior linebacker Dawson Fletcher — experienced players who were not able to produce much last season — are finding their way this season. Younger players like sophomore linebacker Dameon Willis, sophomore defensive back Zeke Walker, sophomore defensive lineman Nile Sykes and true freshman defensive back A’Shon Riggins are producing at unexpected levels early in the season.

Where does it start? Allen wrote LEO on the whiteboard when he first addressed the team in the spring.

It stands for “love each other,” Allen said.

“If you’re flying to the ball and playing hard for each other — together — then you’ve got a chance defensively,” Allen said.

Senior Ana Sanjuan shot two strokes under par 70 Tuesday to lead IU women’s golf to a seventh-place finish at the Ptarmigan Ram Classic in Fort Collins, Colorado.

The Hoosiers finished the three-round tournament 35 strokes over par with a team score of 899 and 28 strokes behind tournament winner San Jose State.

Sanjuan shot a 217 to finish the tournament one over, tied for seventh in the individual standings and junior Alix Kong shot four over and finished tied for 11th with a total score of 220 to lead the Hoosiers.

IU Coach Clint Wallman said he didn’t think the score reflected the quality of the team’s play at the tournament.

“We didn’t necessarily convert as many opportunities as we had given ourselves,” Wallman said. “We have to do a better job of just getting the ball in the hole

when we give ourselves those opportunities.”

The Hoosiers shot a 296 in the first round and finished the first 18 holes in third place. After a 304 in the second round left IU in seventh place at the end of the first day of play, the team posted a 299 to close out the tournament.

While Sanjuan started the year off strong, she said she thought the team could have finished higher in the tournament.

“I think it was an average performance,” Sanjuan said.

“We have the talent to do better, like way better. I’m not very happy with the performance of the team. I think we can perform better.”

Sanjuan’s score of 217 was her third best three-round score as a Hoosier, thanks to her two birdies in the third round. She said the key to her final round was she didn’t make mistakes.

“I think that was the difference,” Sanjuan said. “I didn’t make any bogeys, I played really well off the tee.

Does your

It was just one of those days where I didn’t make any mistakes and I just played well.”

Wallman said Sanjuan’s good tournament was a sign of her improvement as a golfer and her ability to manage herself on the golf course is one of her best qualities.

Freshman Elisa Pierre, one of six freshmen to be named preseason Big Ten women’s golf honorees, and sophomore Erin Harper finished the tournament with a 233. Wallman said he expects Pierre to post better results as she gains more experience.

IU’s next tournament will take place Sept. 24-25 when Michigan State is the host of the Mary Fossum Invitational in East Lansing, Michigan.

Sanjuan said the team needs to focus on getting better as the season progresses.

“All of us know what we have to do to improve,” she said. “In order for us to go into Michigan State and play well, we have to go with a good mindset and we will be fine because we have the talent.”

FAULDS IN OUR STARS

Lena Dunham shames women’s rights movement It’s fair to say woman-led comedy acts have been on the rise for the past twenty years. While still not truly accepted into the maledominated world of comedy, just the presence of this horde of women giving their own punk rock flair to comedy is a sign of change.

Unfortunately, for every Robin Williams or George Carlin, there must always be that one Andrew Dice Clay.

In a comedy world blessed with Tina Fey and Sarah Silverman, we must also be infected with the virus that is Lena Dunham.

Recently, Dunham received backlash for complaining about the Met Gala this year in a video interview with Amy Schumer through “Lenny Letter.”

Dunham’s dilemma? She said she didn’t think New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. objectified her enough.

“It was like he looked at me and he determined I was not the shape of a woman by his standards,” she said in the conversation. “He was like, ‘That’s a marshmallow.

That’s a child. That’s a dog.’”

The assumption that men prioritize other women based on their size and shape is obviously a stereotype Dunham should be educated enough not to perpetuate.

Also, truly complaining about a guy not trying actively to get into your pants at a professional event is one of the most embarrassing things I have ever heard

from a self-proclaimed feminist.

It would be like a woman complaining because the car full of guys that passed her didn’t roll down their window and catcall her.

I don’t know whether to laugh or feel awkward about this whole thing.

Through the years, Dunham has been called the voice of a generation by various publications and fans.

They aren’t wrong either.

But is it our generation? Not even close.

Instead, Dunham speaks for our grandmothers’ generation, the bra-burning, radical misandrists who virtually ignored the rights of transgender women, queer women and women of color.

She’s a second-wave feminist living in a third-wave feminist world.

Honestly, even to attempt to associate her with the feminist movement is nothing short of a blatant insult to more than 200 years of progress in women’s rights.

Dunham’s popular HBO series “Girls” is set in a world where women of color are scarce in New York City.

You know, because a city with more than 8.5 million people must be so whitewashed.

When asked on NPR about her lack of diversity, Dunham claimed it was because she didn’t understand the world of non-white people.

“I always want to avoid rendering an experience I

can’t speak to accurately,” Dunham said.

Apparently hiring black Hollywood writers is difficult or something.

However, this isn’t even close to the most hypocritical and repulsive thing Dunham has done in her life. In her 2014 memoir “Not that Kind of Girl,” she admits to sexually assaulting her little sister, Grace Dunham.

“She didn’t resist,” she said in the memoir.

There’s something very disturbing about that choice of words. Dunham defended her assault in a tweet as simply being the actions of a weird seven-year-old, but she still tried to make light of what thousands of women

Before this incident, Dunham said she would commonly try to get her little sister to kiss her by using “anything a sexual predator might do.”

What?

While she said she regrets using the sexual predator metaphor, Dunham refuses to apologize for what she did to her sister. She said she grew up in a sexually healthy environment where such an act is seen as normal.

Guitarist and singer-songwriter Ryley Walker will play 8 p.m. Wednesday at the Bishop to promote his new album, “Golden Sings That Have Been Sung,” according to a press release from Secretly Group. The Illinois native’s show in Bloomington will be the third stop on his tour.

This is his third album, which Walker released Aug. 19 and started recording just after he returned from touring for his album “Primrose Green.” “Primrose Green,” earned much critical acclaim and “Golden Sings That Have Been Sung” has received similar praise so far.

Fellow Chicagoan and former Wilco band member LeRoy Bach produced the album.

While still in his teens, Walker frequented several improv nights of which Bach was the host at a venue called Whistler.

In terms of subject matter, the album is a collection of songs shaped by his return to Chicago and his most formative musical memories, according to the Bishop’s website. Some songs were also influenced by Chicago musical acts such as Tortoise.

they can turn failures into gifts and capitalize on adversity and find success.

His desire to do so in a more engaging way led to his first book, titled “Winning Plays: Tackling Adversity and Achieving Success in Business and in Life,” which was released last week.

Sept. 14 marks the oneyear anniversary of when he came to speak to IU student athletes as a part of IU Excellence Academy programming.

Of all the speeches he’s given, he said it was his favorite.

“I used to be in their shoes,” Mayberry said. “Just going back and meeting everyone, it was such a surreal experience for me and something I’ll cherish for the rest of my life.”

He touched on his own experiences as a student athlete, the adversity he has experienced and how the student athletes present could set goals for further achievement off the field.

His experience as a former Hoosier and leadership qualities were some of the reasons why he was brought in to speak, said Mattie White, associate athletic director for academic services and the Excellence Academy.

“He knows what it’s like to be a Hoosier,” White said.

“He knows what it means to be a Hoosier, and for him to do well with his athletic career and then transition into this new career that he has for himself with his speaking and writing, I think the students were excited and inspired that they can use their time at IU to help them long beyond their years of competing and being a student at Indiana University.”

Former IU teammate Jammie Kirlew said he didn’t know much of anything about Mayberry’s past until he started his career as a motivational speaker.

Nor did Mayberry’s former college coach, Bill Lynch, who now is the head coach at DePauw University.

each other’s bikes and ask questions about the antique ones.

Bloomington is the best turnout Bruce Grove, one of Brogon’s Daytona friends, has seen on the road so far, he said.

Grove has been riding motorcycles for 40 years and is also an avid builder of motorcycles.

He gets his parts from motorcycle swap-and-shop events. He just sold his last Harley-Davidson this year and has fully converted to Indian Motorcycles.

The bike culture is part of the reason he’s still riding, he said.

“Everybody is so frickin’ nice,” Grove said.

Even though the race is across the nation, Lonnie Isam, Jr., the founder of the Motorcycle Cannonball Run, said in a press release that he considers it a worldwide event.

Last year’s winner, Hans Cortese, is from South Africa and joined the riders again this year.

The riders come from 25 states, nine countries and four continents. The 15-state trek will come to a close Sept. 25, after passing through the Grand Canyon, Four Corners and Joshua Tree National Park.

Kirlew and Mayberry crossed paths as stalwarts on IU’s defense, and the pair pushed each other to make it to the next level. There may have been hints at a troubled past, but Kirlew said he saw Mayberry as so focused on football there was no time for extra-curricular activities.

“As far as us working out three times a day, having school and having to eat and all this other stuff,” Kirlew said, “I don’t see where he really had time to be in the party scene like that. Some guys do get a reputation for that, and he never really had one for that.”

Mayberry said he had no desire to become absorbed in the party lifestyle again. From the moment he arrived in Bloomington, he worked to make it to the NFL. “Every single day, even though peer pressure was out there to go party — and I had fun in college don’t get me wrong — but my days of going back to the hard-core

drugs, it didn’t happen,” Mayberry said.

Mayberry said he didn’t think Terry Hoeppner, who was the head coach at IU when he was recruited, or the coaching staff that included future head coach Bill Lynch, knew much about his past.

Lynch said they knew some, but not to the extent that would later be revealed in Mayberry’s speeches and book. Either way, in their eyes, that stuff was over.

“In our mind he was beyond the struggles he had had,” Lynch said. “And he handled everything that was thrown at him once he arrived at Indiana.”

Lynch said he is proud to see Mayberry has found a way to move on from his football career.

“Everybody finds their niche,” said Lynch, who said he may even use Mayberry’s book to motivate his own student athletes. “And he’s certainly found one that has had a great influence on a lot of people.”

Top IU alumnus Matt Mayberry gives a speech. Mayberry was brought to IU to speak to student athletes last year on Sept. 14, 2015, as part of an IU Excellence Academy Program. Today marks the one-year anniversay of Mayberry’s speech. His book, “Winning Plays: Tackling Adversity and Achieving Success in Business and in Life,” was released last week.

Bottom Mayberry played football for IU from 2006-09. He started in his final 24 games at middle linebacker.

“These are common things, and everyone goes through it at some point, it’s normal,” Conner said. “Ignoring the stigmas means you miss out on opportunities to let people live their best lives.”

The biggest goal of the week is to eliminate prejudice and bring attention to the existing prejudices on our campus, said junior Jason Frank, member of Pi Lambda Phi. “We thought it was in an issue in our society that these words are normal, an everyday part of life,” Frank said.
