Flute Academy debuts with inaugural concert By Helen Rummel hrummel@iu.edu
A classical composition echoed within the walls of Ford-Crawford Hall on Sept. 3 during the Flute Academy’s Inaugural Concert. The budding program, affiliated with the Jacobs School of Music, works to provide musical resources for flutists across Bloomington ever since its creation in June. Flute Academy faculty and students performed a contrasting array of musical pieces from classical composer Anton Reicha to modern composer Sameer Rao. The pieces in the program were selected earlier in the year, and preparation for the performance began in April. “We discussed having something to play with the piano, but we decided that the repertoire was a bit long
and I really wanted to have everyone hear the Concerto in D major by Mozart,” Dr. Suyeon Ko said. Both professor Thomas Robertello and Ko share responsibilities within the new program. Robertello is the head of the Flute Academy and an associate professor of flute at the Jacobs School of Music. Additionally, he teaches master classes for students in and outside the academy. Ko, as the artistic director of the Academy, focuses on recruiting and conducting for the Flute Academy Ensemble as well as teaching private lessons. The Flute Academy welcomes Bloomington community members as well, even those without any previous flute education. “This flute academy is really imSEE FLUTE, PAGE 5

Alleged threats lead to arrest Associate head coach Mike Westphal has been arrested on an intimidation charge By Matt Rasnic and Matt Cohen sports@idsnews.com
IU swimming and diving associate head coach Mike Westphal was arrested on charges of allegedly intimidating a former IU athlete who is now a local swim coach. According to court records, Westphal threatened a fellow swim coach during a meeting at Lennie’s Restaurant discussing the merger of Btown Aquatics with Indiana Swim Club where Westphal is a member on the Board of Directors. During a recorded conversation, Westphal claims he has “control over the coaching career” of the other coach, according to the affidavit. Records also say Westphal told the coach he “could be an asshole, is ruthless and would squash him.” The affidavit alleges Westphal held a prior "lawful act" over the coach. Westphal was arrested Aug. 30 and released on a bail. IU athletics released the following statement regarding Westphal: "Indiana University Athletics has been made aware of the incident involving Indiana University associate head swimming coach Mike Westphal. IU Athletics will continue to gather facts and take further action as it deems appropriate." Westphal's attorney has not responded to the IDS' request for comment.
IUPD: register your bikes, students By Grace Ybarra gnybarra@iu.edu | @gnybarra
IU Police Department Capt. Craig Munroe said about 29 bicycles were reported stolen last year. He also said a simple sticker could have helped recover those bikes. Munroe is urging campus bicyclists to register their bikes for $10. This one-time fee also covers the cost of a sticker bicycle permit that doesn’t expire through the IU Office of Parking Operations. “It can help recover your property if it’s stolen,” Munroe said. “We know that’s an issue here.” Munroe said if a bike doesn't have a permit then there is not enough probable cause to prosecute someone who could've stolen it because the owner of the bike is unknown. Even if IUPD does recover stolen bikes, without a permit they don’t know who to return the bike to. “We may have had that bike at one time,” Munroe said. “But we couldn’t find the owner and then we have to process it. We can’t keep everything forever.” Other benefits of registering SEE BIKES, PAGE 5
