DECONSTRUCTING
Kelley lecturer to run for mayor By Neal Earley njearley@indiana.edu
Students, faculty build sculpture for world exhibit By Audrey Perkins audperki@indiana.edu | @AudreyNLP
After months of work, 10 members of the IU community dismantled the United States’ submission into the Prague Quadrennial of Performance Design and Space. The group, including students and faculty, are representing the U.S. in the exhibition. After completely deconstructing the 18-foot-tall installation, the work will be left in storage until April. The exhibition takes place in June and celebrates the global art of set design, costume design, lighting design and sound design. Paul Brunner, assistant professor in Theatre Technology in the Theatre, Drama and Contemporary Dance department, led the main creation of the exhibit installation. His selection did not come fast or easy. “The selection process began in November in 2010,” he said. Now, his team is composed of 10 people: eight graduate students, one other IU Theatre staff member and himself. Work started in July, after they received the design concept from Klara Zieglerova, a Czech designer based in New York City. They then worked to transform a design into something real and three-dimensional. “It’s a lot more organized than it looks,” he said with a laugh. The exhibit is a swirling mass of wire and metal piping. The center houses a spiral staircase. Curators came a few days ago to place clusters of props, costumes, photos and iPads in the work. The iPads will play music, show projections and display excess SEE PRAGUE, PAGE 6

He spent his formative years stacking produce at Bloomingfoods, driving trucks and burying his head in books as a graduate student at IU. Now Darryl Neher, 48, stands in front of a crowd of more than 300 supporters to announce his candidacy for mayor of Bloomington. “I never intended to enter political life,” Neher said in his candidacy announcement speech. “I didn’t grow up in a political family, and I didn’t set myself up down a political path, but I always found myself engaged in the communities I was a part of.” But by 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Neher filed his paper work and cemented his Democratic candidacy for mayor. Neher, who currently represents district five on the Bloomington City Council, had spent years in the media, first as the host of Interchange on WFHB and then of Morning Edition on WGCL. Current Bloomington Mayor Mark Kruzan, who decided he would not seek a fourth term in November, introduced Neher to the stage at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater on Kirkwood Avenue and pledged his support for Neher’s campaign. “Two months ago I announced I’m not running for a fourth term,” Kruzan said. “But it wasn’t then when I decided I would support Darryl. That was two years ago when I met him.” As he walked toward center stage, Neher was greeted by a roaring standing ovation, cheers and whistling. Neher is now the second candidate to enter the 2015 mayoral race after the first candidate, John Hamilton, announced his candidacy Monday. Neher thanked some of his key supporters who joined him on the stage including Kruzan, Indiana state representative Matt Pierce, DBloomington, and Monroe County Council member Shelli Yoder. Neher, who currently works as a senior lecturer at the Kelley School of Business, had many volunteers on hand for the event, some of whom were his students at IU. Sebastian Wocial, currently a senior majoring in marketing, took Neher’s class in his sophomore year, C205 Honors Business Communication. “Honestly, Darryl Neher is one SEE NEHER, PAGE 6

Sophomore guard Larryn Brooks shoots a layup over IPFW defender Haley Seibert on Dec. 10, 2014 at Assembly Hall. The Hoosier won 80-37 and advanced to 8-1.
A consistent theme this season for the IU women’s basketball team has been its lack of depth in the post. Bigger teams such as Purdue and Rutgers have been able to control the game inside and cruise to comfortable victories. IU gives notable minutes to only three players who are taller than 6 feet, and only sophomore Jenn Anderson would be described as a true big. Freshman Amanda Cahill plays a stretch game and has a thin frame, and sophomore Lyndsay Leikem spends a good portion of her time on the perimeter. No. 23 Minnesota (15-2, 4-1), on the other hand, will be trotting out two post players, Amanda Zahui B. and Shae Kelly, 3 p.m. Sunday when IU (12-4, 2-3) travels to Minnesota. Both of these players have IU Coach Teri Moren game-planning around them. “It’s a tall task for a lot of reasons,” Moren said. “Those two, in themselves, they present problems for us defensively.” SEE HOOSIERS, PAGE 6
Scholarships that bring highachieving students and athletes to campus and fund campus landmarks and classroom equipment share a common thread: all are funded by private donors. Two voices have joined the ranks of the IU Foundation, the not-for-profit organization that, according the foundation’s website, works to bring private funding to IU by fostering relationships with private donors. Alisa Hendrix and MaryEllen Bishop were recently elected to the IU Foundation Board of Directors. Hendrix and Bishop will join the governing body of the IU Foundation at a critical time. The final draft of the IU Bicentennial Strategic Plan, approved in December, set the goal of raising $2.5 billion through philanthropic giving by the bicentennial, which IU will celebrate during the 20192020 academic year. “It is an honor to have MaryEllen and Alisa join the foundation board,” IU Foundation President
Dan Smith said in a press release. “In addition to sharing a strong dedication to IU, they each bring exceptional knowledge and expertise to the table. I look forward to working with them as we continue to advance Indiana University.” Hendrix is currently pursuing a master’s degree in philanthropic studies through the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at IU-Purdue University Indianapolis. Hendrix graduated with a bachelor’s degree in finance from what is now the Kelley School of Business in 1983. She is a member of the Women’s Philanthropy Council, the IU Colloquium for Women steering committee, the IU Foundation Presidents Circle and the IU Alumni Association. She also serves as the director of the Bloomington Hospital Foundation and as a volunteer for the Community Foundation of Bloomington and Monroe County.

Scientists receive grant for chemical research By Anna Hyzy
The Great Lakes toxicity levels
akhyzy@indiana.edu | @annakhyzy
Urban areas are a major source of pollutants.
IU scientists have received a $6 million grant from the Environmental Protection Agency to continue research on airborne toxic chemicals being deposited into the Great Lakes through a process known as atmospheric deposition. Atmospheric deposition refers to the process by which compounds — in this case toxins — move from the atmosphere to Earth’s surface. When these chemicals are deposited in the Great Lakes, they then enter its ecosystem, particularly bio-accumulating in fish. The team of scientists has six sites set up surrounding the Great Lakes, Professor Ronald Hites said. At these sites, Hites said his team collects an air sample every 12 days, which takes 24 hours to collect. Hites is a distinguished professor in the analytical chemistry division of the School of Public and Environmental Affairs.
These pollutants then enter our atmosphere and are deposited into lakes through means such as rainfall.
Once in the lakes, these toxins become part of the ecosystem. They bioaccumulate in fish and plant life. THE GREAT LAKES LOCATED AT U.S.-CANADA BORDER

“In these air samples we measure a bunch of what are called persistent organic pollutants,” he said. These compounds include many once-popular pesticides such as DDT. DDT was the first compound to be banned by the United States government, Hites said. The majority of compounds that Hites and his team are testing for are no longer in use, he said, and many of these compounds are extremely chemically stable, which facilitates their continued presence in the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes account for approximately 84 percent of North America’s fresh surface water, according to the University. “I grew up in Detroit, and when I was a little kid, there was actually commercial fishing in the Great Lakes,” Hites said. Hites said today, the EPA advises against consuming fish from the Great Lakes because the majority of Great Lakes fish are contaminated. The IU project collects data in both cities and more remote locations. Hites said
that the presence of polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBS, which are now out of use, is much higher in urban areas. He said he remembers DDT being sprayed on the trees of Detroit to control mosquitoes during his childhood. “There have only been two compounds that the United States has outright banned, and one was DDT,” he said. Hites pointed out that there are many more compounds that, while out of use, are not banned. He said this occurs in part because U.S. politicians are willing to negotiate with the manufacturers of these harmful compounds. “That, to some extent, reflects the political climate in the United States,” he said. Hites said that while these airborne pollutants his team is researching are a problem, there’s little people can do to speed up their removal. The proposal that Hites and his team submitted in order to receive this grant was competitive, he said.
This project has been taking place at IU since 1994, throughout which Hites said he has seen a measurable decrease in the toxins present in the lakes. “Now, we’ve gotta deal with these very diffused areawide sources that are fundamentally difficult to clean up,” he said. He said that policy such as the Stockholm Convention, an international treaty that the U.S. has not signed, is in place to help control these types of problems. Hites said that he thinks people should be more aware of how atmospheric pollution can affect other things such as water supply. While most of the pointsource lake polluters — the pipes and the direct input of pollutants — have been removed, the lakes still face a problem. Hites estimates that it will take another 30 years before the fish in the Great Lakes are safe to eat because of the ever-present PCBs. “To regulate that is tough,” he said. “It can take a long time to clean up.”
Involvement fair sparks student interest mid-year By Bridget Murray bridmurr@indiana.edu @bridget_murray

HOOSIERAAS HOSTS RAAS DANCE WORKSHOP Sandhya Sridhar, a dancer with HoosieRaas, teaches students the traditional styles of the Indian dance Garba-Raas in the Great Room of the Hutton Honors College. The dance comes from the state of Gujarat, India and variations incorporate the use of wooden sticks called dandiyas. "When I first saw Raas, they said, ‘Make sure you are moving your head and body with energy,’" Sridhr told the students. "It's a highenergy dance and that's what captures the audience's attention." There is an annual Raas dance competition called the Raas Royalty Dance Competition where teams from several different universities compete. This year’s competition will be held at 7 p.m. Feb. 21 in Bloomington.

Alumni Hall at the Indiana Memorial Union was teeming with student life Thursday. More than 100 student organizations were represented at the Winter Student Involvement Fair. The fair, a collaboration between Union Board and Student Life and Learning during Winter Welcome Week, provided students with an opportunity to engage with student organizations during second semester. Karli Hansen, graduate adviser for Student Life and Learning, said they felt good about the turnout. “We had all the tables fill for student organizations, which is awesome,” she said. Junior Bethany Gross stood in front of her organization’s booth, the Faculty and Staff for Student Excellence Mentoring Program. She is a lead peer mentor in the group. She said she was happy with the flow of people at the fair this semester and that more people were able to see their booth. “I really like the layout of this one,” Gross said.
One student felt similarly. “I feel like it’s more spread out here,” freshman Bridget Hammans said. She had attended the fair in the fall and said this semester’s layout made it easier to approach the booths. Booths for each organization were set up side-by-side across both Alumni Hall and the Solarium at the IMU. While this location allowed more space for the booths, junior Emma Dossey said she was worried about the larger crowd. Dossey is the president of the Animal Club, which is starting its second semester on campus. She said students could pass by some organizations they might like. “It can make it hard if a lot of people are in front of something you’re interested in,” Dossey said. One student organization struggled for space. Senior Evan Spiegel, Vice President of Chess Club at IU, said, “We don’t have a table yet.” Gross said FASE representatives were doing their best to grab students’ attention. SEE INVOLVEMENT, PAGE 3

IU campus offers several MLK events for students By Maia Cochran maicochr@indiana.edu | @_maiacochran
There will be no classes Monday, Jan. 19 in celebration of the 29th observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. However, students are being encouraged to take action toward making this “A Day On! Not a Day Off.” “Our celebration of Dr. King’s birthday at Indiana University is an opportunity to pause and reflect upon Dr. King’s hallmark strategies: collaboration, peaceful expression and intellectual engagement,” Martin McCrory, vice provost for Educational Inclusion and Diversity and associate vice president for Academic Support and Diversity, said in an email. Campus will be busy with activities, guest speakers and film sessions inspired by Dr. King’s work. The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day Leadership Breakfast will kick off Monday’s celebration at 8 a.m. in the Indiana Memorial Union Alumni Hall with keynote speaker Myra Selby. Sponsored by several groups on campus, the Civil Rights Immersion Trip will take a group of about 50 students to Tuskegee, Ala. to promote the historical and current knowledge of the equality movement. Cost of attendance will be $30. FASE Advisory Board and the 21st Century Scholars Program will conduct a Day of Service from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Monday at the Interfaith Winter Shelter. The organization is currently accepting student volunteers

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2 “There is a lot of competition,” she said. Organizations used tactics such as passing out flyers and free candy at their booths to engage students. “Last semester we had a dog,” Dossey said. “But it’s inside this semester.” Union Board did its part to draw students in by setting up Just Dance games and a photo booth in the South Lounge.
They also hired a guitar duo, recent graduate Zander Nevitt and senior Sean McClure, to play around the booths. Nevitt said they were half of a local band, The Bangs. Nevitt said they might have been hired to add ambiance to the fair. “I’m trying not to come off as the dude with an acoustic guitar,” he said. Ambiance or not, students such as freshman Sam Stegall were ready to be involved.
Stegall said he was looking to expand his interests this semester and be more involved with clubs related to his informatics major. “I felt like I wasn’t doing enough last semester,” he said. Hammans also said she was more prepared to get involved this semester. “I feel like I was overwhelmed first semester,” she said. “Now that I have a handle on college in general and classes, I feel like I can get more involved.”

IU Law professor named most influential By Annie Garau agarau@indiana.edu
William Henderson, a professor at the IU Maurer School of Law, said that when he was in his 20s, no one would have called him inordinately “special.” Certainly, in those days, no one could have predicted that he would earn the title of 2015’s Most Influential Person in Legal Education. “My students probably don’t realize that I was one of them back in the day; just another guy in jeans and a T-shirt,” Henderson said. “Whatever I’ve accomplished, I’ve accomplished through learning and effort, not an innate ability. I have average
ability.” Though some may credit this statement to Henderson’s well-known modesty, most of what the professor says, according to “The National Jurist,” is reliable. “When it comes from Henderson, no one is about to dismiss it out of hand,” according to the article announcing the rankings. Since coming to IU in 2003, Henderson’s dedication to studying how the legal profession works and how legal education is structured has led to him being one a wellrespected voices in debates on the changing legal world. After spending the last two years as first runner-up on the
list published annually by the trade magazine, Dean Austen Parrish said it was about time Henderson rose to the top. “The work that Bill does is really important because there’s only a small number of people studying exactly how the legal profession works and changes,” Parrish said. “How can we, as educators, figure out how to prepare students to become leaders in the field unless we know what’s really happening in the field?” To describe his methods of teaching, Henderson said to think of students as phones. You have your grandmother’s dial-up phone versus the new iPhone you got for Christmas. They can both make calls, but
one of them is equipped with tools to help with all kinds of other needs. Similarly, lawyers need to have a multidisciplinary approach to solve today’s problems, he said. Henderson said he wants to make smart phones. “Lawyers disproportionately make up the world of leaders and law bears on every aspect of the human condition,” he said. “As the world gets more complicated and globalized, I want my students to be prepared to become the problem-solvers. A lot rests on the intellectual value and character of lawyers.” Randall Shepard, former Indiana Chief Justice and current visiting professor at the
fice of the Vice President for Diversity, Equity and Multicultural Affairs, said MLK Jr. Day is a day for remembering King. She said it is primarily a time to look to the future and embody the work he has left for us to continue. Radovich said she looks forward most to seeing the campuswide effort from students for the holiday. She said the involvement that is carried out at IU is really impressive. “When you step back and look at all the incredible events happening — and the community built, based on this one celebration — it really makes you proud to be at IU and to be a Hoosier,” Radovich said. She stated Vice Provost McCrory has “brought the legacy of Herman B Wells back to IU” through this community he created since being in office, especially through events such MLK Jr. Day.

IU Robert H. McKinney School of Law, also made the list at No. William 15. “It feels Henderson good to know that I’m making a contribution that’s recognized by my peers,” Henderson said. “I really couldn’t have done it without the support I get from Indiana University, so it’s an accolade to the school as much as it is to me.” The new title confirms what Maurer student Peter Robbins already knew about the well-liked professor: “He is kind of a big deal.”

Members of the Prism Youth Community share a moment of silence by candlelight Thursday during the vigil held in memory of transgender teen, Leelah Alcorn, at Rachael’s Cafe.
Organization puts on vigil for trans teen By Lyndsay Jones jonesly@indiana.edu | @lyndsayjonesy
Nearly 200 miles from Kings Mills Ohio, home of deceased transgender teen Leelah Alcorn, dozens of people crowded together last night in Rachel’s Café to give meaning to her death. Alcorn, 17, committed suicide after her coming out as transgender ostracized her from her family and people she believed were friends. Jean Capler, president of FairTalk in Bloomington, was the first speaker at the vigil. “It hurts that we’ve lost another human being because she was so alienated and taught to loathe herself,” Capler said. “Her loss is our loss.” Capler’s audience was captive and diverse. Some people wore name tags with their preferred pronouns. Some people were older than 50, others were closer to 12. Suits and beanies stood side-by-side. Identity, though celebrated, meshed into unity as people turned to one another, lit candles and stood silently together. Although unified in purpose, some people suggested different approaches for change. One speaker spoke about living as a transgender individual. “We are always on the defensive,” the individual said. “There are literally people trying to kill us. There’s going to be a moment of silence and I think that’s appropriate. But what if there was a moment of rage?” Rachel Jones, the cafe’s owner, also stepped on stage to share her story after she was finished making drinks. Jones, 55, said that she grew up when being transgender was considered categorically as being as a disorder. She said that after losing her ex-wife and living in fear
Phoenix Young, age 16, holds a candle during a moment of silence for the suicide of Leelah Alcorn at Rachael’s Cafe on Thursday. Young is a member of Prism Youth Community, who sponsored the event. He wrote and shared a poem dedicated to Alcorn during the open mic portion of the event.
for so long, she learned that she was often more afraid than she needed to be. “So many of my fears have been unfounded,” Jones said. “Be who you are and know that many of your fears will go away.” After speaking, she stepped off the stage and resumed her position behind the bar. When she wasn’t making drinks, she listened attentively to each speaker. Part of the audience’s diversity lay in the number of organizations represented in evening. More than a dozen groups, both local and reaching as far as Indianapolis, came in solidarity and offered services. Some of the groups were religious. Rev. Friar Daniel Kostakis came with business cards for Bloomington Inclusive Mass, a progressive church movement that identifies with Roman Catholic traditions. “We hope to be a light, to bridge the divide,” Kostakis said. “We offer communion and sacraments to everyone.” Kostakis said he started the church two years ago. He said that he started with a group of four people, but has seen it grow to about 20. “I want to say it’s been overwhelmingly positive
in Bloomington, but I have been called a faggot walking down the street,” Kostakis said. Martinsville’s City Hill church was represented by Jennifer Williams. Williams, who said she is a lesbian, is one of four pastors at the church. “We felt it very important that there are Christians who came,” Williams said. “If God really is love, that does not exclude the homosexual community.” Williams is the only female pastor. Williams said she felt hopeful about the direction society is taking. As the event came to a close, attendees embraced each other, some in tears. Younger attendees held hands and danced as adults talked. Mary Balle, a parent, was the last speaker of the evening. Balle said she knew that raising a transgender child would be difficult. But she said she was going to be supportive of any direction that her child’s gender would take. “I’m not just about making a death mean something,” Balle said. “Let’s make our lives mean something.”

Gov. Pence gave his State of the State address Tuesday, outlining several of his goals for this coming year including education, health and the state budget. The 119th Indiana General Assembly convened Tuesday, Jan. 6 to start off the 2015 legislative session. The schedule of legislation that will be introduced and debated in both the Senate and the House of Representatives includes several pieces of legislation that relate to Gov. Mike Pence’s legislative goals for this year. At this time there are 550 bills on the docket in the Senate and 476 bills on the docket in the House. There are several bills on the docket in both the House and Senate that address education, including House Bill 1095, a bill which re-establishes a small school grant for certain corporations; HB 1114, which provides annual grant awards to assist individuals with student loan debts; HB 1129, which expands the prekindergarten pilot program to include 13 total counties; and HB 1438, which redistributes funding for the authorization of adult high schools. Some of the bills that relate to the health of Hoosiers include Senate Bill
417, which establishes the Indiana health insurance exchange, SB 464 and HB 1448, which both mandate that Medicaid include some kind of substance abuse detoxification as services and SB 115, which adds some additional regulation to the statewide ban on smoking. The Indiana General Assembly is also currently in the process of drafting and passing legislation for the state budget for the next two fiscal years. The 114th United States Congress convened for a new legislative session Jan. 3. The session will end Jan. 3, 2017. This congress has a Republican majority in both the House, with 247 Republican representatives, and the Senate, with 54 senators. Indiana has nine representatives in the House of Representatives, along with two senators in the Senate. Both Rep. Todd Young, R-Bloomington, and Sen. Joe Donnelly have introduced similar legislation that proposes a new definition for “full-time employment,” with the Save American Workers Act of 2015 and the Forty Hours is Full Time Act, respectively. Young has announced his objectives for the next two years, focusing on a specific agenda of preserving the traditional defini-
tion of full-time employment, enacting meaningful regulator reform to encourage the growth of small businesses and working toward better outcomes in assistance programs, according to an editorial column that he published last week. One piece of legislation that has received preeminent support from both Indiana senators is the Keystone XL Pipeline Act, a bill which authorizes the construction and operation of an oil pipeline that would cross the U.S.-Canada border. In his platform, Donnelly voiced his support specifically for the Keystone XL Oil pipeline as part of an initiative to support domestic energy. “My work will not be done until every Hoosier who wants a job has a job,” Donnelly said. “And the Keystone XL pipeline means jobs for American families and energy security for our country.” Sen. Dan Coats has also backed legislation that would authorize the pipeline. “The Keystone pipeline would support tens of thousands of jobs during its construction, invest billions in the American economy and increase revenue to state and local governments,” Coats said. “All of this without spending a dime of taxpayer money.”
MLK Day events kick off with awardwinning filmmaker as keynote speaker By Lyndsay Jones jonesly@indiana.edu | @lyndsayjonesy
Emmy award-winning filmmaker Bennett Singer is adding a new flair to Bloomington’s upcoming Martin Luther King Jr. celebrations next week. Singer will be screening and discussing his film ‘Brother Outsider: The Life of Bayard Rustin.” The film showcases a civil rights champion who Singer said history has purposefully overlooked due to his sexuality. “For me, as a gay man and a student of history, Rustin’s story certainly resonated with me,” Singer said. “It was remarkable to see how open he was.” Mike Shermis, event specialist for the City of Bloomington, said Singer was selected to be a keynote speaker by a group of city commissioners. Shermis said the commissioners are appointed by the city council and the mayor’s office. “They spend months de-
ciding who’s going to speak,” Shermis said. “It depends on a lot of things, including the theme.” Singer said he believed he was chosen as a speaker because of the focus of his film. “I think they felt this story would be a fresh take on Martin Luther King Day,” Singer said. The film has been shown in various schools and workplaces, including Google and J.P. Morgan, as a tool for diversity education, Singer said. He added that the film was often the first time racial and sexual diversity had been presented together. “All of those opportunities have deepened my belief that people are hungry for change,” Singer said. “It gives me hope.” IU Vice Provost Martin McCrory said the University hoped to highlight a commitment to diversity and innovation through the community’s events on MLK day. Singer said Rustin’s sexu-
ality and his role in the civil rights movement were at odds with each other. “There’s a huge irony that Rustin was at the heart of the civil rights movement but fighting another battle,” Singer said. “He did pay a price. But he was able to live with authenticity and integrity.” Singer said the fight for civil rights and equality for everyone is far from over. “Even though America has banned official segregation, there is a long road ahead to achieve Rustin and Martin Luther King’s dream,” Singer said. But the filmmaker remains optimistic. “This country has the potential to change and individuals who are strongly motivated to make things change.” Singer said. “Individuals can make a huge difference.” Other MLK Day speakers include Myra Selby, the first African-American to serve on the Indiana Supreme Court from 1995 to 1999.
Arrests made in home invasion, armed robbery cases From IDS reports
The Bloomington Police Department made arrests Wednesday, Jan. 14 in the December home invasion, armed robbery and burglary incidents where two assault weapons were among several items reported stolen. Jacob Wyatt, 25, and Edward Richardson, 23, of Bloomington were both charged with armed robbery and criminal confinement, level-3 felonies, and burglary, a level-4 felony, according to a news release. On Dec. 11, 2014, officers were dispatched to the 300 block of W. Riley Drive regarding a home invasion robbery that had just taken place. The victims at that location indicated that two black men and a white man with handguns burst
through their front door and threatened to shoot them. Two of the victims were injured after being struck by the suspects who robbed them of money. On Dec. 27, 2014, a burglary was reported at an apartment in the 1100 block of W. 17th Street. The victim indicated that forced entry had been made via a sliding glass door and that several items had been taken. Those items included two AR-15 assault-style weapons, an Xbox gaming system and games, Air Jordan basketball shoes and six Air Jordan hooded sweatshirts. Detectives determined that Wyatt and Richardson may have been involved in the home invasion armed robbery, and they were placed under surveillance. On Wednesday, a search warrant was obtained for
their apartment in the 2500 block of S. Rockport Road. Richardson was taken into custody on a traffic stop. At the same time, the warrant was executed at the residence, where Wyatt was taken into custody. Several items were seized as a result of the warrant that may link them to these incidents and other similar cases, including a home invasion where two victims were shot, being investigated by the Monroe County Sheriff ’s Office. After being interviewed, both suspects were booked in the Monroe County Jail. The investigation continues with additional arrests possible or additional charges being filed against these suspects. Updates will be provided as the investigation continues. Hannah Alani

No doubt one of the best teachers I ever had.” Neher’s announcement hardly came as a surprise as volunteers dressed in “Darryl Neher: Mayor” white T-shirts were armed with clipboards and asking the supporters filing into the historical theater on Kirkwood for their name, phone number and email address. “I’ve been here every day, engaging the issues that impact our community and our lives,” Neher said. “Learning about Bloomington through my experience as a student, a teacher, volunteer, an employee and public servant.

That way she will have to face up and take jumpers instead of working inside and getting easy layups. They may need to bring help from the backside when she has the ball, and they might end up playing some zone defense, Moren said. While Zahui B. is a 6-foot-5 center who has averaged 19.5 points and 15.3 rebounds in four conference games, Kelley is 6-foot-1 and Moren said she is athletic, can shoot and is able to drive to the basket. Moren also said IU has no good matchup for Kelley, but Cahill will be their best bet. “I just have to do the little things that my coaches tell me and that I work on in practice and help the team out as much as I can,” Cahill said. These little things included
Neher said that after talking to Bloomington residents, he plans to run his race on what he called progressive values of quality of life, economic development and commitment to social services. “Those are real challenges, those are real issues,” Neher said. “But what was inspiring to me in those conversations was a desire to inspire from so many in our community.” Neher specifically mentioned issues such as the construction of I-69 and IU Health’s possible movement out of downtown. Neher praised democratic party leadership in Bloomington over the last four decades and said he hopes to continue the progress his predecessors set forth for him. “I also understand whoever is the next mayor is a placeholder,” Neher said. “And we have an obligation to respect our history, especially that 40-plus years of strong, progressive democratic leadership that has helped shape who we are.”

Sophomore guards Larryn Brooks and Taylor Agler both did not start in their last game Jan. 8 due to sickness and injury, respectively. Moren said Brooks and Agler are both back to 100 percent now, but it is not certain if the lineup will go back to normal. Sophomore Alexis Gassion may be a better matchup on the perimeter with her size and intensity. She started in place of Agler against Wisconsin and had 16 rebounds. This will only be the Hoosiers’ fifth road test of the season, and they lost their last road test 86-64 to Purdue. “Our job is to go up there and kind of forget about that and focus on what we are there to do,” Moren said.

The exhibit is going to be interactive, he said. “People who are looking at the exhibit, they will be able to cut off a piece of wire from a spool and tie it to the exhibit,” he said. “For my world ... it’s got a lot of characteristics of a stage set, but it’s completely different.” People can walk through it and climb up it using the staircase in the center. It’ll move just a bit, he said, all while being structurally sound. Also, due to its metallic materials, Brunner said it reflects things around it. “It just sits there and glimmers at you,” he said. Brunner added the installation will be housed in a “several-hundred-year-old church.” The light in the room will be constantly changing, he said.
his speech, looking back on his time in Bloomington as a broke graduate student. “Immediately after graduation I came to Bloomington, and Bloomington became my home,” Neher said.
“Now when I first arrived in Bloomington, I was a poor, broke graduate student, and I had to work to supplement my income to get by and to pay my bills — and I know what that struggle is like.”
“It just comes to life,” he said. Brunner works in set design. For him, the average project revolves around a script. This is not the case this time. There is no shadow of historical accuracy that he has to restrict himself to while building on stage. He doesn’t have to match anything to the plotline of a drama. “That can be frightening,” he said. “It’s not tied down to the story of a script.” Changing vantage points, this installation was created many months in advance and is designed to be unveiled in Prague. Brunner said while he and his team created this exhibit in Indiana, its true home is in Prague. It will not be technically complete until it is re-assembled there in June. So, he said, the exhibit will be undone and put in boxes. Until they are shipped abroad in April, they will be treated as if they are raw materials. This deconstruction
started Thursday and will continue for a couple days. In terms of his estimations, everything will be boxed and stored by the weekend. Now all that is left to do is wait and plan. When he and his students arrive in June, they will only have four days to bring everything into their allotted space and fully set everything up. This idea is “very nervewracking” for Brunner. To cope, he said he is going to spend the remaining months planning and prepping. In fact, he already has local hardware stores marked off in case something happens at the last minute abroad. Yet in the end, despite any nerves Brunner has to work through, there is only one thing he wants his exhibit to achieve as an end goal. It should be a source of thought, interaction and conversation. People should spend part of their day mingling with it, he said. “There’s this unique sort of life about it,” he said.

Robinson still trying to find consistency By Sam Beishuizen sbeishui@indiana.edu | @Sam_Beishuizen
Stanford Robinson’s offensive state has been so out of whack that he’s been unsure whether to shoot with his right hand or his left. That’s not exactly the ideal mindset for a sophomore guard like Robinson, who before Tuesday’s 76-73 win against Penn State hadn’t managed to make much of an impact for IU this season. Since switching his shooting hand in the offseason from his left to his right, Robinson hasn’t been able to return to his 2013-14 form where he was regularly the first off the bench. The 6-foot-4 guard averaged just 3.6 points on 32.1 percent shooting in his first 14 games since coming off a fourgame suspension to start the year. He had missed all eight of his 3-point attempts and shot only 45.7 percent from the free-throw line. His struggles have tested his patience as he spent more and more hours putting in work at Cook Hall looking for a solution to his shooting woes. “Stan wants to do well,” Crean said. “Stan is in that gym so much, and he wants to be so good.” On Tuesday, there was progress. It was a return of the Robinson that IU Coach Tom Crean relied on so often to provide a much-needed spark. For the first time in more than 10 months, Robinson scored in doublefigures with 12 points and four rebounds in 17 minutes. He was 6-for-6 from the line and had no turnovers. “I don’t think it was the hand,” Robinson said. “Because I think the hand is just all in the mind, which hand I’m going to shoot with. I think it was my teammates ... they all found me in great scoring areas that I can excel at, and that’s what I did.” Historically, where Robinson excels at is attacking the rim. He’s never been a jump shooter and

Eighty-four percent of Robinson’s shot attempts come from within the 3-point arc, according to shotanalytics.com. Last season, 90 percent of Robinson’s shots came from within the 3-point line. The difference between last year’s successes and this year’s struggles has been at the capacity and frequency of the makes. Robinson’s mid-range game has been down. He’s taking 10 percent fewer mid-range jump shots and making far fewer attempts. At the rim, where 58 percent of his shots are taken, his shooting percentage has dropped 12 percentage points from last year. For now he’s concentrating on getting the higher percentage looks around the rim, which the numbers imply is a good idea. “He’s got to go in and finish,” Crean said. “He’s got a lot. He’s got some momentum to him. He’s got a unique way to get to that rim.” After Tuesday, it appears Robinson is back on track. His season-high 17 minutes were his most effective all year. But it was only one game. It was at home and it was against a not-particularly impressive Penn State team that’s 0-4 in the Big Ten. But for Robinson, it’s a start. It’s something to build on. The next step is carrying it with him when IU (13-4, 3-1) travels to play Illinois (12-6 2-3) 1 p.m. Sunday. “We’ve got to get into that bonus so we can get to the foul line, and Stan helps things like that,” Crean said. “The defending, really relishing that role, and getting to the glass, playing with strength and force. That’s what he does for us. If he continues to do that, he’ll continue to play.”
Hoosiers look for rare win in Champaign IU (13-4) at Illinois (12-6) 1 p.m. Jan. 18, Big Ten Network
By Alden Woods aldwoods@indiana.edu | @acw9293
Even in IU’s best years, it struggles to win at Illinois. The Hoosiers have lost 11 of their last 12 games in Champaign, Ill., and they’ve done it in a multitude of ways. Last season, it was a three-point overtime loss. Two years ago, a No. 1 IU team was beaten by a last-second layup. Two years before that, it was an embarrassing 24-point loss to end the regular season. IU’s sole win in that stretch didn’t come easily. It took four Hoosiers scoring in double digits to pull off a double-overtime win in 2008 under
former Coach Kelvin Sampson. No doubt, the State Farm Center is a difficult place to play. Since its opening in 1962, the Fighting Illini have compiled a .787 winning percentage at home. “They’re hard to beat there,” IU Coach Tom Crean said last season. “They don’t beat themselves.” Throw in IU’s problems winning away from Bloomington this season SEE BASKETBALL, PAGE 12

“In Dog We Trust”, or so says the official rugs of a Florida sheriff ’s office. CNN reports that the office rugs will be sent back after an embarrassing typo from the rug company. While the sheriff ’s office has hidden
away the faulty rugs, the office’ s cold floors become an awkard reminder of the mistake. While the rugs in Florida will be replaced, the Ernie Pyle statue at IU still sits, serving as a second reminder that spellcheck is our friend.

A plan B for Mexico
Armed, but dangerous
EDUARDO SALAS is a senior in public management.
Last spring, I wrote about the possibility of a turning point for Mexico. Sadly, it looks like that window has long passed. Anthony Bourdain tells us that not only does Mexico have beautiful colonial architecture, but more so “a tragic, elegant, violent, ludicrous, heroic, lamentable, heartbreaking history,” as well. And it seems history continues to repeat itself. The disappearance of 43 college students from a rural teachers college in Iguala, Guerrero, incited a surprising firestorm of public outcry from a country desensitized to death. The fact that the students were likely killed on orders from the local mayor, who ordered their arrests by local police and were later delivered to a cartel to be executed, is not only shocking, but utterly appalling. The reason? The students were protesting, and the mayor didn’t want them to interrupt his wife’s rally that, interestingly enough, was to launch her own candidacy for mayor of Iguala. The case hit the country particularly hard given the long-murmured belief that those who end up dead as a result of the drug war somehow deserve it by virtue of being involved in the trade. But in this instance, the students couldn’t have been further removed. The fallout from the case led to massive protests across the country culminating in a mass demonstration in Mexico City’s plaza that saw the public burning of an effigy of President Enrique Pena Nieto and calls for his resignation. It’s a far cry from his “Saving Mexico” cover on Time magazine. The mishandling of 43 disappearances by the government and its original reluctance to address the disappearances was just the beginning. Though the mayor and his wife, along with a significant number of Iguala’s police force, were arrested and charged, a recent investigation points to federal police being involved in the disappearance of the students. For years we’ve been trying to help Mexico fight cartels and maintain the rule of law. Since 2007, the U.S. has given Mexico $2 billion in assistance through the Merida Initiative to combat organized crime. The Initiative — or Plan Mexico, as it is called derisively in reference to Plan Colombia — exists to fund, train and arm the very type of federal police that seem to have been involved in the disappearances. Despite attempts by Pena Nieto to change Mexico’s narrative through ambitious reforms, the security situation in Mexico has not improved. If anything, it has worsened because of a government in denial and deep institutional corruption. It begs the question of whether or not Plan Mexico has failed. The last straw for many Mexicans came when it was revealed that Mexico’s first lady had a house built and financed by a contracting firm awarded public works projects during Pena Nieto’s time as governor. The same firm was awarded a multi-billion dollar contract to build a high-speed train in Mexico months ago, which was subsequently canceled after these details came to light. With seemingly no credibility among the people, Mexico’s government is failing. It’s beyond time for a Plan B. edsalas@indiana.edu

Down with the Ivory tower WE SAY: education shouldn’t be a luxury Scrape together any random assortment of IU students and ask them about their Office of the Bursar bill, and you will receive a laundry list of complaints. We all know it, our professors all know it and our parents all know it: college is expensive. The only people that seem to be unable to understand this are our legislators. This makes President Barack Obama’s proposal of two-year community college free to anyone willing to work for it one of the most important developments in education policy since the GI Bill. For the first time in decades, a president has actually proposed — rather than wished for — a plan to bring our public education up to date with the rest of the world. Regardless of whether the proposal passes in Congress or not, pressure has finally been put on our academic institutions and our lawmakers to bring college tuition and the education of our workforce front and center in American politics. But if the proposal is able to gain the bipartisan support it needs to become reality, it could re-
juvenate an entire generation of students and help shape the legacy of a president. Some college administrators have responded to the proposal with apprehension, fearing the move could pull students away from their institutions. The Editorial Board would encourage them to reconsider the long-term impact of the policy. First, let’s consider that approval of the President’s plan would be a win for public education as a whole. By expanding access to needed job training, many who previously saw higher education as something reserved only for the affluent will now have opportunity. This means community colleges will be flooded by students who would have forgone college altogether, allowing public universities a chance to go after students who are now able to afford transferring after their first two years are paid for. More importantly, though, is that this is not an end goal, but a simply a step in the right direction. The proposal has already drawn criticism on the left for not providing enough
education. If Democrats unite behind the proposal and can gather the support of forward-thinking Republicans like Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam, this could be the first step to ensuring everyone has access to higher education beyond community colleges — which should ultimately be in the best interests of any college administrator. All successful progress comes incrementally. The problem with our politics is not that we don’t have the solutions but that we don’t have politicians willing to risk failure for the sake of those solutions. We have a president and a handful of lawmakers willing to put aside partisan differences to improve the lives of struggling students. Meanwhile, Speaker of the House John Boehner is already denouncing the plan as nothing more than a “talking point.” For a guy who likes to talk a lot about being on the side of the American people, Boehner is looking a lot more like a guy out of touch with what our side really is. Or perhaps he simply doesn’t view students to be worth his time.

The hidden genius of the receptionist I went into the IU Health Center the other day and when I went to check in with the receptionist, I realized to my very small, inexplicable disappointment she seemed completely apathetic to the fact that I was there. She gave me the forms I needed to fill out, and that’s it. She didn’t ask how I was. She didn’t make unnecessary small talk. The entire exchange was sterile and unimpressive. Looking back, I realize that I wish more exchanges with strangers were like this. Yet when they are, I am disappointed, even though I don’t enjoy hovering salespeople at clothing stores or waiters dithering around restaurant tables, eager to please. I was disappointed because I expected, perhaps even dreaded, engaging her in small talk, and in the space created by that absence, I felt disappointment. But in reality, the
encounter went perfectly well. I began thinking about my strange response to not getting something I didn’t want anyway, and that’s when it hit me. We can learn something from the attitude of the receptionist. I know many people who dislike small talk and overly-talkative salespeople. Yet these same people feel the same expectation to be engaging when they don’t want to be. That’s what we can learn from the receptionist. It’s okay not to be bright, boisterous and engaging in every social interaction. It’s not her job to be engaging, and it’s certainly not her job to pander to customers, as many of the most obnoxious waiters and salespeople do. There should be a firm line delineating obligatory social expectations and those that are reasonable social expectations. We should not feel obligated to engage in
small talk or ask how one’s day was because, for many people, they don’t care about the answer. They just want to be polite, and an expectation has formed that unwanted and forced encounters — usually unwanted and forced on both sides — are polite. But think about it. Why would something that neither party wants to do be considered polite? Of course, there are people who are gregarious and naturally concerned about the small details of others’ lives, but what I say shouldn’t deter them from being the gregarious people they are. Certainly, I doubt they would care what I say anyway. But these are the people who you can readily tell are interested and who gain significant pleasure from following that interest through. And this makes an encounter bearable, even enjoyable, because this is a

genuine display rather than a mechanical performance of caring. So why does this all matter? It doesn’t. At least, not in some grand way. However, I think it’s important to take a step back and look at everything spread out in front of me and see if the things I’m doing are actually things that I want to be doing. The receptionist I talked to does not feel an obligation to observe these small, silent rules because, for her, there is no reason to follow them. She simply is there to do her job. Our jobs are to live the best we can in the manner we want. Everything else is secondary. allenjo@indiana.edu

A recent episode of CNN’s new program titled “The CNN Guns Project” profiles a small school district in Harrold, Texas that has recently begun arming teachers in anticipation of another catastrophic school shooting. When I glimpsed the headline, “Teachers with Guns,” on CNN.com, my stomach dropped. I have long held the opinion that the answer to gun violence in America is definitely not more guns. Expanding gun rights for citizens by removing barriers to gun access and limitations on civilian weapon capabilities will only make firearms more accessible to those who wish to do harm and widen the margin for fatal accidents. I had little patience for the trigger-happy gun enthusiasts who I was sure I was about to see defend their right to eliminate anything that moves. Still, as I began to hear the perspectives of the interviewees, my opinion softened. The video includes interviews from the school’s superintendent, David Thweatt. His argument is the school’s rural position. Thweatt explains that for some schools, emergency first respondents could be up to 30 minutes away. Such a huge amount of time waiting for armed authorities could cost innumerable lives. Thweatt maintained that they were used to fending for themselves when troubles arose, and the citizens of Harrold intended to continue doing just that in their schools. I was nearly convinced that this was indeed the most logical remedy to the absence of immediate first respondents until Superintendent David Thweatt uttered the following words: “We know who the good people are, we know who the bad people are, and we’re going to be able to assess very, very quickly what’s going on.” I remembered exactly why civilians shouldn’t carry guns and appoint themselves policemen. Thweatt’s claim that he knew exactly who was “good” and who was “bad,” the latter of which can be interpreted in far too many ways, is haunting. It highlights the immense gap between his training as a first respondent in the event of a crisis and what is actually required of a law enforcement professional. If a school devolves into chaos because someone has begun committing murders at gunpoint, the last thing needed is a disillusioned staff member grabbing a gun. He or she cannot be trusted to “be able to assess very, very quickly what’s going on” because he or she cannot be trusted to decide “who the good people are” and “who the bad people are.” In the midst of young children, I never under any circumstances would decide that adding a second shooter — untrained, and ultimately without the tools of split-second crisis decision-making — would remedy the situation and put a stop to the shooting. Rationally, such a judgement lacks logic. Recently, we have seen that even law enforcement officials cannot be trusted to make the correct instantaneous decision in a high-risk, high-stress situation when holding a firearm or exerting their authority over civilians. How can we then expect a teacher, with dramatically less training, to perform any better? Thweatt’s decision to arm his teachers is wrong, and I hope with all my might that there are never consequences for his grievous misjudgment. sbkissel@indiana.edu

Dancers rehearse for the 2015 Contemporary Dance Winter Concert on Thursday in the Ruth N. Halls Theatre. The concert is Jan. 16 at 7:30 p.m.
Dance concert opens Friday By Liliane Ho yuehe@indaina.edu
IU Contemporary Dance Theatre will present the 2015 Winter Dance Concert starting Friday. The theme of this year’s show is “Encounters and Collisions.” The concert opens at 7:30 p.m. Friday and shows continue throughout the weekend. The concert will take place in Ruth N. Halls Theatre at the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center. Tickets are $25 for regular admission, $15 for students and $10 for senior citizens. “Seven different choreographers, three rehearsal directors, 60 dancers, several lighting, costume and set designers and multiple stage managers. You get the idea,” Elizabeth Shea, the production director, said. The concert consists of nine choreographed pieces by guest choreographers and IU Faculty Selene Carter, Nyama McCarthy-Brown, Iris Rosa and Shea. Diversity and quality have always been the focal points of creating the show. This is also a year of big names. Ihsan Rustem, born in London and now based in Switzerland, is featured as one of three guest choreographers. “We want to create diverse programs every year,” Shea said. “This year is more classic-based. This year we had an opportunity to work with Hubbard Street, a company that has its root in classicism
and has the essence of ballet, which is very different. It’s the European contemporary ballet approach, which is very hot right now.” The first work, “Long Story Short,” is one of the highlights of the show. Created by Ihsan Rustem, the piece is set to dramatic music that uses text from Allen Ginsberg’s poem “Howl,” with dramatic lighting and striking, high fashion–inspired costumes. The choreographer was inspired by his experience of intense changes in life. “This experience came in three stages: insecurity and immense doubt, the urge to break free, then absolute calm,” Rustem said in an earlier interview with 4dancers.org. The fifth piece, “Protean Hearts” by Elizabeth Shea is her most recent work and will have its premiere this Friday. A mix of American modern dance and European contemporary ballet, the work puts people in a more social context and illustrates a strong exploration into our relationships with each other. “The piece is about the fickle nature of mankind... the best and the worst of us,” Shea said. “A lot of thinking is from world events going on nowadays. Terrors, but also the outpouring of love and support for each other. I felt the vulnerability of life but also the moments of amazing goodness. It’s the hope that keeps us all going. And we
want people to think about it.” The creation of the piece is very much a collaborative effort. Alejandro Fonseca, a senior dance major, and Ryan Galloway said modern dance is the best way to express individuality through dance. “It’s great that Liz brought up the idea and she helps us, the dancers, to express it the way we want,” Jordyn Kahler, a senior dance major, said. Dancers dress in light cotton dresses dyed in soft pink, pale violet and burgundy. They move softly and continuously, shifting and swirling, their dresses highlighting their skin. “Because of the content matter of this piece, I was looking for maturity in the dancer,” Shea said. “They must have embodied intelligence of their bodies and how they can relate to each other. The ability to work together is really critical in this piece.” Bridget Williams, a lighting designer, designed bright lighting going diagonally upward. “The involvement of designers is an important aspect because I feel more comfortable and clear after discussing Liz’s vision from the beginning and watching the piece over again, which doesn’t happen very often,” Williams said. “So this show is very carefully planned because of the collaborative process.” After watching a rehearsal, set designer Andrea Ball

translated the contained energy and power into a seemingly static wooden sculpture wrapped loosely with fabrics in the far corner of the stage. “The idea is a representation of heart. But it’s not in the shape of a heart,” Shea said. “The skeleton of the pieces is designed from the dancers’ bodies. The fabric’s wrap kind of represents the fickleness. It changes with the lighting change and it embodies the shifting relationships in dancers.” With so many talented artists involved, Shea said there were a lot of communication challenges. “But in the end, it is wonderful to have so much creative talent on the stage for ‘Encounters and Collisions,’” Shea said. Shea and her dancers said that contemporary dance is accessible to everyone and is open for interpretation. All of the anger, happiness, joy and love are actually happening after the curtain goes up. “We, as dancers, are in constant eye contact and using our bodies to make connections,” Leah Fournier, a senior dance major, said. “That’s the way we present and communicate humanness so the audience can see and feel it.”
Al Jackson will return to the Comedy Attic this weekend. Jackson spent almost 10 years working as a stand-up comedian. He is known for his Comedy Central 30-minute special, as well as his appearances in the Limestone Comedy Festival in Bloomington. He has also co-starred on several television programs, including “Comedy Underground with Dave Attell.” Jackson will perform at 8 and 10:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Jackson said Attell was the reason he became a stand-up comedian. He said he thinks it is amazing how the people he idolized as a child have become his colleagues and friends. “Besides the free drinks? I mean, are we being honest here?” Jackson said when asked to share his favorite part of being a comedian. He said he — “as corny as it sounds” — feels most accomplished when someone from the audience approaches him and lets him know that he made their bad day a little bit better with his work. Due to working on a pilot of Game Show Network’s newest segment, “Mind of a Man,” Jackson will only be able to perform Friday and Saturday nights. The usual run for performers at the Comedy Attic’s is Thursday, Friday and Saturday showings. Jared Thompson, owner of the Comedy Attic, said he looks forward to Jackson’s return. “He’s an accomplished, fantastic comedian — truly — but what’s great about Al is that he’s an all-around great guy, too,” Thompson said. Thompson said he knew he had to invite Jackson back again this year because the comic is “handsdown” the most requested comedian at the club.

He said he enjoys assessing the crowd and letting his material follow that lead. “After you’ve been doing this for so long, you kind of get the feel for what each audience appreciates in (a comedy show),” Jackson said. Thompson said he enjoys the way the world of comedy is treated differently than any other art form. “When you go to see a band you like, you are at the concert cheering them to play the songs you know by heart, but with comedians, it’s the exact opposite,” Thompson said. He added that comedy show attendees crave exclusive material. Thompson said he appreciates the way Jackson tailors his shows at places such as the Comedy Attic to the way the audience responds. Jackson has a spontaneity about his performances that most big-name comedians do not, Thompson said. Thompson said most of the time comedians are working on particular set lists and want to perfect the material minute-byminute for their upcoming special. Hoosiers can anticipate jokes about what is going on in Jackson’s life right now at the show, Jackson said. He said even though he “looks old enough to be an undercover cop,” he really enjoys the nightlife Bloomington has to offer. “I look forward to enjoying some craft beers and maybe doing some live karaoke,” Jackson said. “I really appreciate that about Bloomington.” The Comedy Attic is located at 123 S.

Blueline hosts local artist for printmaking workshop By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13
Walking around with his metal spoon, local artist Jim Sampson introduced a crowd of 30 or so patrons of the Blueline Gallery to his last few years’ work. “I see I have a couple of fans here,” Sampson said as he began his lecture. Pointing to the ceiling, a friend in the audience heckled Sampson and said, “Yeah, two fans.” Such was the light and humorous tone of the artist’s talk and demonstration hosted by the Blueline. A group of art-minded individuals gathered at the Blueline to listen to a lecture and demonstration by Sampson Thursday. After the talk, Blueline Director Erin Ritchie said she was happy with the vast range of ages present to listen to Sampson’s advice. “Oh, it was a really good turnout,” Ritchie said. “I was kind of expecting a pretty decent turnout just because Jim is so well-known, but I was surprised that so many different age groups came.” Sophomore art majors Lexie Bluhm and Jason Fruits attended out of interest and a requirement for a class. Both said this was their first trip to the gallery, but it left a lasting impression on
them. “I liked this one because it was a printmaker and I’m in a printmaking class, so I’ll be doing the kind of system he does here in a few months,” Bluhm said. During the talk, Sampson spoke about his printmaking method, which he said he developed over years of practice. “I devised this thing where you print all colors first then put all colors in what’s called registration,” Sampson said. Sampson showed an example of his templates from stage one, the outline, all the way until the final template, which he prefers to stamp in using just his metal spoon. All work not produced using the traditional spoon method is stamped out using a homemade press, which Sampson said he crafted from “junk” he found in alleys or at the hardware store. “I’m not into high-tech at all, and here I am in this high-tech place,” Sampson said. Sampson’s talk was also partially dedicated to his inspirations, which range from his childhood during World War II to contemporary artists to everyday life. A few of his pieces used a fish template he crafted from leftover materials.

Printmaker Jim Simpson talks about his linocut prints at Blueline Media Productions on Thursday. His work will be on display until Jan. 30.
“With fish in a bowl, there’s no composition,” Sampson said. “They’re everywhere. It can be any number of ways because there is continuous movement.” Sampson took some inspiration from pieces by Henri Matisse, quoting him in his lecture. Ritchie said that reference was the part of the speech that surprised her the most. “That quote he said about Matisse, that art should be colorful and seem like an old chair, that really stuck out and made me want to buy that painting,” Ritchie said. The Blueline will sell Sampson’s work for the re-
mainder of the exhibition, which runs through Jan. 30. Sampson said his work has transitioned from black and white to color, as well as scaled down in size. “I used to work very large but I’ve moved to a very small space,” Sampson said. “I did one that was 64 feet of printmaking, and my work was next to Andy Warhol and I thought, ‘Oh man, this pop-art stuff, you can’t be serious.’ It was probably the biggest and most important show I’ve ever done.” Sampson said his next step is unclear, though he enjoyed the experience of sharing his work. “I don’t have anything right now, but this has been fun,” Sampson said.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 comes even harder. For the second time in two years, IU travels to Champaign with an uncertain frontcourt situation. The last time IU went to Illinois — that overtime loss New Year’s Eve 2013 — it did so the day after 6-foot11 freshman Luke Fischer departed the program. This time, IU makes the trip five days after losing another big man. Junior forward Hanner Mosquera-Perea injured his right knee in practice Monday and missed IU’s game against Penn State the next day. The injury has the 6-foot-9 forward sidelined indefinitely. That could spell trouble against 6-foot-11 Illinois center Nnanna Egwu. The senior doesn’t put up big numbers — 7.5 points and 5.6 rebounds per game this season — but stands four inches taller than any player in IU’s regular rotation. Egwu could shoulder a

bigger part of Illinois’ offensive responsibilities with the loss of star guard Rayvonte Rice, the Big Ten’s fourth-leading scorer. Rice broke his left hand Jan. 5 and is slated to miss up to six weeks. In Rice’s absence, sophomore guard Malcolm Hill has taken the majority of Rice’s left-behind shots. In Illinois’ three games without Rice, Hill has averaged 16.7 points on 14 field goal attempts per game. His 28 points against Maryland were the key in Illinois’ upset win against the thenNo. 11 Terrapins. He’ll likely draw a matchup with junior guard Yogi Ferrell, who Crean has placed on opponents’ top scorers over the past two seasons. On Tuesday, Ferrell held Penn State’s D.J. Newbill — the Big Ten’s top scorer — to just 12 points. In IU’s last two trips to Illinois, it has failed to close out games after leading in the final minutes. Finishing games hasn’t been as much of a problem

for this year’s Hoosiers, who enter Sunday’s game after back-to-back one-possession wins. After Tuesday’s threepoint win against Penn State, Crean said his team has improved at sealing victories but still has improvements to be made.
“Fortunately for us, we’re learning how to close games, which is something we didn’t do a very good job of last year,” Crean said. “You know, part of it is growing up. Part of it is understanding what we’re trying to do. “The answer would be belief.”
TRACK AND FIELD
IU, Purdue to face off in dual meet By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu | @trlehman_IU
The Hoosiers will be running for redemption when the No. 14 Boilermakers ride into Gladstein Fieldhouse at 4 p.m. Saturday for the IUPurdue dual meet. After suffering its first loss in the five-year series — the men lost 70-65 and the women lost 72-64 last year — the IU track team will try to regain dominance in the instate rivalry. IU Coach Ron Helmer believes the team with the most depth at each event will take the crown as the dividedstate champion. “There are events that Purdue will win, and there are events that we will win,” he said. “The great athletes find ways to win their events.” The pattern was evident
in last year’s IU-Purdue dual, where Purdue’s men claimed at least two of the top three spots in seven events. IU’s men took just six events and lost a tightly-scored meet. “The second piece of it is that we need to win the relays,” Helmer said. “They are scored where you get five points if you win and zero points if you don’t, so that’s a huge swing.” IU’s women know the importance of the relays all too well, as last year Purdue took at least two of the top three spots in six events. IU claimed eight events, but with two victories in the all-important relays, the Boilermakers took home a close win. Last year, junior Sophie Gutermuth claimed first place in the pole vault in the IU-Purdue dual and broke

the IU women’s indoor record for highest vault at 4.22 meters (13 feet, 10 inches) at the Hoosier Open in December. “Mainly what I’ve been telling myself since we started competing this year is to just continue what I do in practice,” Gutermuth said. “It seems to work better when I just focus on what I’ve been doing in practice instead of trying to clear a certain height.” Senior Derrick Morgan will also be leaned on heavily by the IU men as he races Purdue’s top 400-meter sprinters, junior Kendal Frederick and senior Nicholas Parks, who took first and second places last week in the Gene Edmonds Cup. With a personal record of 47.12 seconds, Morgan looks to have the advantage on his
IU vs. No. 14 Purdue 4 p.m., Jan. 17, Bloomington opposition, who have run just 49.44 seconds this season. “I definitely made some strides in the offseason,” Morgan said. “And with Coach Beathea coming in, I think I’ll run a lot faster this season. The Hoosiers will have their hands full in their first competitive meet of the calendar year. But Morgan said he believes if they keep up the competitive spirit they showed in their last intrasquad meet, they could match the Boilermakers on every level. “The alumni like to see us win,” Helmer said. “But they really like to see us compete hard.”
After nearly a month off, the IU swimming and diving team will compete in a trimeet with Notre Dame and Big Ten foe Wisconsin on Friday and Saturday in Madison, Wisc. The Hoosiers competed at the 2014 AT&T Winter Nationals in December. Junior Brooklynn Snodgrass won three gold medals in the 100and 200-yard backstroke and as a part of the 800-freestyle relay. Freshman Kennedy Goss earned silver in the 200 freestyle and bronze in the 500 freestyle. Sophomore diver Michael Hixon placed second on the 1-meter and third on the 3-meter, while freshman Jessica Parratto won gold on the platform and silver in the 3-meter event. Since that meet, IU has had time to focus on training without competition. IU Coach Ray Looze said aside from good work in the pool, his swimmers have struggled to stay free of sickness. “The flu bug has really hit us hard,” he said. “This has probably been the worst flu season that we’ve had to deal with as far as how many people have gotten it.” It won’t keep anyone out this weekend but will still have
a short-term effect on some of the swimmers. This is the Hoosiers’ first tri-meet of the year, their last dual meet coming Oct. 31 of last year. They haven’t competed at home since opening the season against Auburn. Looze said the schedule this season means more traveling. “We’re trying to swim against the best competition,” Looze said. “And if you’re going to do that, you have to be willing to go on the road than whoever you might be able to attract to your own school.” IU will face Notre Dame’s Emma Reaney, who won the national title in the 200-yard breaststroke last season, becoming the first NCAA Champion in school history. She’ll present problems for a thin IU breaststroke group. While Notre Dame has strong individual performers on the women’s side, Looze said the men are one of the deeper teams in the country. “We’re in for a tough competition, no doubt, and Wisconsin being at home they have that advantage,” Looze said. “We’re aware of what we’re walking into. We like challenges, and we’re going to get one.”
WOMEN’S TENNIS
IU to begin 2015 season with Winter Invitational From IDS reports
IU women’s tennis will look to start 2015 strong this weekend when it hosts the IU Winter Invitational. Other teams competing in the invitational include Abilene Christian, Marquette and Oregon. The invitational will consist of both singles and doubles play, but the results will only be judged on an individual basis as no team score will be kept. IU finished its fall season well, going a combined 20-4 in singles play at the Western Michigan University Super Challenge. The Hoosiers return four seniors this season, all of whom played a large role last spring for IU. Senior Kate Klyczek played
in the No. 1 position for IU last year and has twice been named an All-Big Ten player. Senior Carolyn Chupa played a majority of last season in the No. 3 position. Senior Alecia Kauss won 26 singles matches last season, the most of any returning IU player, from the No. 4 position in the lineup. Shannon Murdy is the final returning senior who saw action in 18 singles matches last season. IU also returns a group of three sophomores in Paula Gutierrez, Mary Beth King and Kim Schmider. Of the three, Gutierrez saw the most action last season. Play will begin at 11 a.m. Saturday and 10:30 a.m. Sunday and Monday. Michael Hughes
