Fire at the Village Deli By Emily Ernsberger emelerns@indiana.edu | @emilyernsberger
It was a classic Bloomington Sunday. IU senior Sarah Rodriguez was eating with three friends at the Village Deli. People were eating and waiting to be seated like any other weekend at the restaurant, she said. The four friends were seated near the kitchen. Waitress Madelyn Nahas was putting in an order. It was just like normal, until she walked into the back of the restaurant. Toward the end of their meal they started to smell smoke, Rodriguez said. Then, Nahas saw it billowing out of the walk-in area of the restaurant. Later in the day, it was confirmed the fire started around noon Sunday. No one was injured, but the Village Deli will be closed for an unknown amount of time. “We didn’t think it was that big of a

Patrons were calmly told to evacuate. “I’m glad it happened so quick and that we were able to move everyone,” Nahas said. “But it’s insane.” Responders arrived on the scene immediately after.

‘Sister Act’ to take the Buckeye offense too much for IU stage at IU Auditorium By Lanie Maresh emaresh@indiana.edu
Emily Kay Shrader, a fresh college graduate, received a phone call last May that immediately had her excited. This phone call would change her career path as an aspiring actress. Last spring, during her senior year at Marymount Manhattan College, Shrader was cast for the role of Sister Mary Robert, an unassuming postulant in the national Broadway tour of “Sister Act.” “I had always hoped to get to perform in a national tour, but I definitely wasn’t certain that it would happen,” Shrader said. “After I got the call, I group texted my mom, dad and brother and said I’m becoming a nun.” She will join her fellow “nuns” in the show at 8 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday at the IU Auditorium. The musical comedy follows former nightclub singer Deloris as she pretends to be a nun after a mob boss puts her on his hit list for witnessing a murder. She agrees to lead the

82-70 By Sam Beishuizen sbeishui@indiana.edu | @Sam_Beishuizen
COLUMBUS, Ohio — IU knew it was coming. The Hoosiers prepared for it. They talked about it. They practiced for it. To beat Ohio State, IU Coach Tom Crean said his team would need to make D’Angelo Russell and Shannon Scott uncomfortable. IU couldn’t allow them to find a rhythm if it wanted to beat the Buckeyes. IU couldn’t do it. Ohio State’s backcourt combined for 32 points, 13 assists and six rebounds to lead the Buckeyes to an 82-70 win over the Hoosiers on Sunday in Columbus, Ohio. “The bottom line today is D’Angelo Russell and Shannon Scott played the way we couldn’t let them play,” Crean said. “We never took them out of what they wanted to do.

The 2014 Orientation team pose for a group photo. The deadline for the application to be a Orientation leader during the 2015 summer is today.
Orientation leader app due By Alexis Daily aledaily@indiana.edu | AlexDaily1
Applications to be a 2015 orientation leader close Monday at noon. Students are eligible if they have completed at least two semesters at IU Bloomington, maintained a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.3 and completed the class “Peer Mentoring and Leadership in Orientation.” Students who want to be orientation leaders will be required to be on campus from May 26 to July 23 and will be provided housing, a meal plan and an hourly wage of $7.50. Orientation leaders will work 30 to 40 hours a week and are not allowed to take summer classes. The Office of First Year Experience also offers a program assistant position. These students run program checkin and answer phone calls and emails. Program Assistants will not be provided housing or
a meal plan, but earn $8.25 an hour, are allowed to take summer classes or work a second job and work 30 hours a week. Daniel Chang, a sophomore studying accounting and finance, said being an orientation leader last year was one of the best experiences he has had while at IU. “I have the ability to impact so many people in a positive way, and I met so many new students, which only made me even more excited for the upcoming year,” he said. Leyla Rashid, a student coordinator for the First Year Experience Programs, said being an orientation leader was different than she thought it would be, and through the process, she discovered the point was to make new students feel at home. “We’re usually the first faces they see here on campus, and although it’s an exciting time, it’s nerve-racking,” she said. “We’re here to calm their nerves, but also prepare
them for the next phase of their lives.” Elizabeth Pekar, one of the student coordinators for the 2015 OTeam and 2014 program assistant, said she enjoyed how no two days in a row were exactly the same, and spending the summer in Bloomington was an awesome experience. “Joining OTeam expanded my network and I am now friends with people I probably never would have met without the experience,” Pekar said. “Even though I wasn’t an orientation leader, I gained leadership and public speaking skills and am definitely more confident just overall.” Rashid said that from being a member of the OTeam, she learned not everyone comes from the same background, beliefs or lifestyle, but that you can easily connect to anyone you meet. “We knew the basic roles of our jobs, but we didn’t know what each day would look like, what we would have
O-team leader requirements Complete 2 semesters at IU 2.3 minimum GPA Gone through the ‘Peer Mentoring and Leadership in Orientation’ class to know or even when everything would fall into place,” she said. “But through trusting our teammates, we grew as role models and we were able to effectively welcome more than 7,000 students to IU.” Rashid said she was originally overwhelmed by the size of the team, but over time, she grew comfortable with everyone and gained many professional skills. “Our team balanced each other out in ways we found throughout the summer,” Rashid said. “I gained a sense of belonging on the team, as well as confidence. Seeing a student’s face after you affirm all their hopes and ease their troubles is truly priceless.”
IU Safety Escort introduces new app By Ashleigh Sherman aesherma@indiana.edu | @aesherma
IU Safety Escort is attempting to cut down on wait times. The transportation service, run by IU students, recently switched to an app-based system. Riders can now download TapRide, an app already used at universities nationwide, from Apple and Android app stores. IU Safety Escort transports IU students, faculty and staff from 8 p.m. to 1:45 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and 8 p.m. to 11:45 p.m. Friday through Saturday, according to the IU Safety Escort website. Riders traditionally called a dispatcher, telling the dispatcher where they would like to be picked up and dropped off. The dispatcher then gave the riders an estimated time of arrival, IU Safety Escort
Director Austin Fair said. Now, riders can download the app, log in with their University ID and password and select where they would like to be picked up and dropped off. The closest of three drivers, armed with an iPad, then selects the ride and gives the riders an estimated time of arrival, Fair said. The new app, developed by DoubleMap, allows the riders to track the location of the vehicle, just as the DoubleMap bus tracking app allows riders to track the location of Bloomington and campus buses. “We only had one dispatcher, so all the calls had to go through that one person,” Fair said. “And the phone timed out at 10 minutes, so we would have times, at our busiest, when people would time out at 10 minutes and have to call back in. So things weren’t
going as well with that.” When the contract with the old software vendor expired, IU Safety Escort decided to purchase an app instead of renewing the contract, Fair said. The group hoped the app would cut down on wait time and miscommunication both before and after making the call. “It seems like the trend is to go with apps, because a lot of students have smartphones,” he said. Fair added that using an app is more intuitive for students than calling a dispatcher. Though the new app only works with Android phones and iPhones, Fair said IU Safety Escort is working on developing an online portal for riders without compatible cell phones to use. Until then, Fair said IU Safety Escort will continue
to employ a dispatcher for riders without compatible phones to use, though the dispatcher will route riders with compatible cell phones to use the app. Once IU Safety Escort has developed an online portal for riders without compatible cell phones to use, Fair said the transportation service will no longer employ a dispatcher, but will keep a cell phone in one of the vehicles in case riders have questions or concerns. Fair said the app has been a success so far, cutting down on wait time both before and after making the call and cutting down on miscommunication. “There’s been a few issues, but for the most part riders seem to like it,” he said. “They seem to like how simple it is. They’ve compared it to Uber.”

Around 20 students attended the first of several “Surviving and Thriving: Minority Graduate Student Professionalization Series” workshops Friday afternoon. The Emissaries for Graduate Student Diversity Program held an informational workshop led by five scholars: history professor Peter Guardino, Senior Assistant Director of Specialized Career Advising Jan Van Dyke, assistant professor in the folklore and ethnomusicology department Javier F. León, assistant dean of IU’s graduate school Yolanda Treviño and professor and chair of the Department of African American and African Diaspora Studies Valerie Grim. Scholars advised minority students about interviewing, networking and professionalism in the job market. Conferences and presentations are important for graduate students because the students are given an opportunity to establish themselves and make connections, León said. During the workshop, León emphasized the importance of polishing presentations before conferences. Guardino gave a presentation on interviews, advising students to “consciously be who you are, without feeling self-conscious.” He told students to be enthusiastic about what they are researching and what they want to do. The scholars gave students a walk-through of typical conferences and interviews, telling them what to expect. “The beautiful thing about this is that it is a series of workshops where (students) will be able to continue to grow,” Treviño said. Treviño shared growth statistics of career opportunities in different fields of the job market. She highlighted the importance of students developing “Ph.D.-transferable skills to non-academic careers.” These skills included ways to broaden skill sets to open a wide variety of career opportunities. She explained that being multilingual opens up doors to potential employees that someone who only speaks one language may not have. Van Dyke advised students to practice the interviewing process as well as
Yolanda Treviño, assistant dean of IU’s graduate school
“becoming perfectionists about resumes, CVs and other professional documents of yourself.” She gave in-depth tips on how to perfect the essential paperwork of the professional world. Grim shared with the students some of the trials and tribulations of her own growth in the professional world. She offered pieces of advice concerning ways to thrive in graduate school and beyond. “You can’t thrive in isolation, and you can’t grow without criticism,” Grim said. She told students there will be times where they, as a minority, will face adversity. She explained the importance of maintaining a professional demeanor when facing them. All speakers emphasized the importance of becoming as refined and versatile as possible in research topics as well as personal endeavors. They provided students with information about standing out in a crowd of people when interviewing and presenting. After the speakers’ presentations, students were given the opportunity to ask questions and share personal experiences about the professional world. The series is a semesterlong sequence of workshops to help minority graduate students prepare and succeed in the job market. “Hearing personal experiences and advice from these scholars that you don’t get in the classroom is so valuable,” Julian Carillo, a graduate student studying anthropology, said. He said he feels the professional advice from people who have been through or are going through the academic and non-academic job search is as important as the material they study in the classroom. The next event of the series will be Feb. 27 and again will be hosted with IU Latino Studies Program, La Casa Cultural Center, Latino Graduate Student Association and the emissaries for Graduate Student Diversity Program.

New Turkish café latest addition to Bloomington food By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu

Bloomington Police Sgt. George Connolly wears his body camera at the scene of a fire at the Village Deli on Sunday afternoon.
BPD cameras prove effective By Andy Wittry awittry@indiana.edu | @AndyWittry
The #ReclaimMLK protest Monday blocking the intersection of Third Street and College Mall Road turned violent when Michael McConnell, 22, battered a Bloomington Police Department Officer. The officer’s body camera was ripped from his chest and fell to the pavement where Brittni Snyder, 29, picked up the camera. Another officer’s body camera caught Snyder on film kneeling to the ground to pick up the camera Because of BPD’s successful Facebook campaign to identify Snyder, which reached more than 22,000 people, she turned herself in Wednesday. She was subsequently booked on a preliminary charge of theft and taken to Monroe County Jail. The reported theft of one body camera and the use of another to identify Snyder are a microcosm of the changing times in the world of police departments nationwide. “It’s new technology,” BPD Chief Michael Diekhoff said. “It’s actually kind of been thrust upon the law enforcement community rather quickly with the events that have happened in Ferguson and New York. There’s a lot of demand for law enforcement to adopt this technology and use it.”
By the time the cameras arrived and were set up in Bloomington, it was April 2014, around the week of Little 500. Using money from the city’s general funds, BPD bought 30 cameras at $700 each. The model is VieVu’s third-generation model, a “small, lightweight, easy-touse, self-contained video recorder,” according to the company’s website. It offers HD or wide screen SD resolution, up to five hours of battery life, 16 gigabytes of storage and the ability to download a day’s worth of film in the matter of minutes. A lightning strike in June delayed the department’s initial testing period after one of the servers that downloads the body camera videos was taken out, but Diekhoff said overall the pilot program has worked pretty well. “They’ve already proved beneficial in several different cases,” he said. A dichotomy exists in the implementation of body cameras. While the function and use of the cameras are relatively simple, the implications and surrounding issues of their use are more complex. Diekhoff said while there are better places to clip on a body cameras to an officer’s uniform, there’s not much difficulty to wearing one. “The officers clip them on the front of their shirts and
you just slide a little lens cover down and that turns it on,” he said. “When you’re done, you slide it up and that turns it off, so they’re real simple to use.” Downloading the captured video from the cameras and uploading it to BPD’s internal server is just as easy as wearing the cameras themselves. However, the recording and archiving of video raises greater issues, such as the storage of evidence and privacy concerns. While Diekhoff said he couldn’t speak for the general public, he guesses Bloomington residents are in support of documenting interactions between police officers and the public. Diekhoff said the officers seem to be supportive of it because it adds a layer of protection for them. BPD has noticed people act differently when body cameras are present. When people realize they’re being filmed, they tend to calm down, Diekhoff said. He said officers have told him that in the past, people tend to get animated and yell when interacting with officers, but they tend to act differently when they figure out they are being filmed. Another trend BPD has observed since the addition of the body cameras is that some people who have gone to the station to file complaints against officers have withdrawn their complaints
once they are told BPD is going to consult the film from the cameras. The additions of body cameras have leveled the playing field for BPD in an era when the general public is armed with cellphone cameras that can be used to film police officers. He said people have a tendency to film things and it’s always interesting to film the police, but now BPD has the ability to look at what happened from the officer’s perspective. “If something happens prior to us having them, if something would’ve happened, we might have had to try to find someone who had video,” Diekhoff said. “Now we have it ourselves.” Body cameras are not the end-all, be-all for stopping crime. At the end of the day, the cameras are controlled by human beings and humans can make mistakes. There will be times when officers forget to turn their body cameras on, Diekhoff said. “You’ve got to remember, it’s a piece of technology that has to be turned on in order to work and there will be times where it doesn’t get turned on, so it’s just another tool for officers to be able to use to document things,” he said. “What the public shouldn’t do is pin all hopes on this is now kind of the golden nugget for police-community relations.”
In Sofra Café, customers sip tea and coffee as they finish their breakfast. The counter is lined with breads and pastries like baklava. Sofra opened its doors last Monday, Jan. 19. It is located on 340 S. Walnut St. Suite 4, and it is open from 8:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. Mehmet and Naciye Akgun own the restaurant. Mehmet, the general manager, said the idea of opening a restaurant was inspired by his wife’s cooking. “We were thinking about having something like this for a long time, me and my wife,” he said. “Actually, it was her cooking skills that we owe the idea to. She is a very good cook, and friends and family who would taste her food have been telling us we should open something and everyone should taste this delicious food.” He said although they have wanted to open a restaurant for a while, they were not able to carry out their plans until now. They knew the landlord who owned the building, and once she informed them of an empty space, they took the opportunity and began working on their café, he said. “The construction process took a very long time and we went through a lot of steps ... since there was no kitchen here and it was just a big empty place, we had to build everything from scratch, including the kitchen, and that took us a while,” he said. “We waited and worked on it. It was a long, hard process, but in the end, we did it.” Restaurant owner Naciye said her recipes are inspired by an antique cookbook she received in college. “When I was studying at college, my major was Turkish language and literature, and I had a very old book that one of my professors gave me,” she said. “He found it in an antique store and said, ‘You might like to read this,’ because I like to read Ottoman and translate all those things ... the book actually is from the Otto-
mans and is a hundredsomething years old.” The book contains the basics of Turkish cuisine, she said, and she plans on putting it on display in Sofra in the future. Mehmet described Turkish food as diverse because of the combination of cultures that can be found in Turkey. The country sits between Europe and the Middle East, and as a result, the food includes spicy Middle Eastern dishes and the fresh fruits and vegetables of the Mediterranean. Although Sofra is a café, the owners emphasized that they serve a variety of dishes. “We offer breakfast, lunch and dinner,” Mehmet said. “Although we are a café, it’s not just coffee, tea and a couple of bakery items. We have a food menu for lunch and dinner — Turkish home-cooking dishes like chicken, beef, vegetarian options and desserts.” The food is all prepared from scratch, Naciye said, including the bread dough and yogurt. The restaurant does not use any frozen materials. She said their ingredients are fresh and their food is healthy because of its Mediterranean background. She said their food is completely authentic. “The way we cook has not changed ... people sometimes change things and make it Americanized, and I say, ‘No.’” Mehmet said Sofra has received positive reviews from customers. Bloomington is home to many international restaurants, but he emphasized that their café offers something unique. “Everything here is Turkish home-cooking, and we’ve had quite a few students here from Turkey, and they have been waiting for something like this for a very long time, because although we have Turkish food available in Bloomington, the food we cook here is not available in any of those,” he said. “They are similar, but we try to make sure that it is as authentic as it gets.”

By all accounts, President Obama’s State of the Union address Tuesday, Jan. 20, was a rousing success for all members of the American population who do not identify as a straight white male. Obama touched on key social rights advancements, Most notable was his groundbreaking rhetoric: for the first time in history, the word “transgender” was used in the State of the Union address. Obama’s recognition of America’s transgender and gender-nonconforming population led many to herald a new era in our nation, one of progressive social reform and liberty and justice for all. Those heralds suddenly struck a very dissonant chord Thursday, when the United States House of Representatives voted 242-179 to pass a bill that would clear the path for a ban on federal funding for abortions, further limiting women’s reproductive rights. Deepening the sting was the historic significance of Thursday’s date as the 42nd anniversary of the landmark Roe v. Wade decision that upheld the same rights the current House is so eager to snatch away. Just when I’ve begun to rejoice our country’s development into a nation of open minds, open hearts and liberated legislation, a disillusioned fraction of our government hurls us 242 votes backward. The bill would eliminate abortions from Medicaid coverage and limit a woman’s ability to buy insurance plans that include abortion coverage. Small businesses that include abortion in their employee insurance plans could no longer receive a tax credit. By endorsing this legislation, the House has essentially refused to acknowledge the obvious fact that reproductive healthcare is healthcare and therefore necessary to improving one’s quality of life. The bill implies that women who choose to abort their pregnancies do so for recreational or frivolous reasons, which could not be farther from the truth. It horrifically trivializes what is, for many, an emotional and challenging decision. The bill reduces women to substandard citizens by asserting that their reproductive healthcare is not vital enough to be covered by insurance providers, thereby making what is often an already-traumatic situation into an impossible crisis for low-income women who cannot afford the procedure without help from insurance. I am embarrassed to claim a nation as my homeland that refuses to extend equal healthcare coverage to women. Our reproductive freedom has been explicitly attacked and diminished, and our status as legally inferior Americans must change now. Those who celebrated the president’s progressive statements Tuesday were not wrong; we are indeed on the cusp of a new era of true equality in this nation. Every day I see local and national strides toward equality for all Americans and all of humankind. As a self-declared model of freedom and justice, we as Americans must amend this error and continue to blaze trails too long overgrown with the backward, antiquated misunderstandings of yesterday. sbkissel@indiana.edu

Hiding behind the screen WE SAY: “American Sniper” incites violence Clint Eastwood’s surprising box office hit “American Sniper” attempts to tell the tale of real-life Iraq War sniper Chris Kyle. The film’s narrative is simple: it’s good versus evil. Basically, there are evil terrorists and Kyle needs to kill them. The overarching theme of the film is set early on by Kyle’s father when he declares that there are three types of people in this world: sheep, wolves and sheep dogs. In this metaphor, the American people would be considered the innocent sheep, the big bad wolves are al-Qaeda terrorists and the protective sheep dog is Chris Kyle. As a result, the narrative couples together and hardly distinguishes the difference between Iraq’s millions of citizens and al-Qaeda terrorists. The resulting sentiment against Muslim Americans from “American Sniper” is terrifying.
As much of the film was based on Kyle’s memoir, a considerable amount of the displeasure is based on excerpts that critics have flagged. Examples such as, “I couldn’t give a flying fuck about the Iraqis” and “if you see anyone from about sixteen to seventy-five and they’re male, shoot ’em. Kill every male you see.” In the end, the film makes little effort to prove his comments wrong. For example, as Vox’s Zach Beauchamp points out, most children the movie chooses to focus on pick-up weapons. The rhetoric presented in the film is not only wrong but it also quite distasteful. In fact, as Beauchamp explains, “many thousands of Iraqis died fighting al-Qaeda, and the group’s defeat never would have been possible without the 2005 Anbar Awakening, in which many Iraqi communities in al-Qaeda hotspots took up arms to up-
root the group.” In an attempt to retell history, “American Sniper” instead has opened the floodgates for hateful rhetoric and negative sentiment against the Muslim community, both in America and abroad. The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee cites that anti-Arab and anti-Muslim threats have already tripled since the release of the film. And after the threats? The ADC even wrote Clint Eastwood and Bradley Cooper, urging them to speak out against the “hateful rhetoric.” Still no comment from the director or the film’s star. With all of this being said, Kyle is still a celebrated war hero, and that’s saying something about the power of cinema to distort history and further racial stereotypes. It’s clear that “American Sniper” is set to present a dangerous precedent for war films to come.
MICHAEL’S MARGINS
Fear as a weapon of mass destruction I think being frightened of the events that have been occurring in Paris, Saudi Arabia and Africa in regards to Islamist extremism is a natural reaction. It is the reaction of Americans, Europeans, Saudi Arabians and Africans alike. However, the only reason I could think to not be scared would be because that fear is exactly what organizations like ISIS are attempting to inflict upon us — unless, of course, you would want to use your fear to justify your xenophobia. It seems as though Fox News and other conservative think tanks have begun implicitly arguing for a removal or, at minimum, an ostracization of Muslim people. Through their falsified sense of fortitude, right-leaning media conglomerates speak out against ISIS, but in a way that has also targeted everyday, moderate
Muslims. And it has, as if unknowingly, promoted a shallow understanding of an entire religious following with the prerequisite for being afraid of them. In the face of such bigotry, I find it important to truly consider how a sample of Muslims from around the world actually feels towards extremist political attacks that have occurred in recent months. A 2006 Gallup poll intent on accruing Muslim attitudes about acts of extremism generalized those interviewed into two groups: political radicals and moderates. Overwhelmingly, the political radicals supported acts of terrorism, while the moderates overwhelmingly opposed them. One interesting statistic: 94 percent of political radicals believe religion is an important part of everyday life. Ninety percent of mod-
erates believe the same thing. This lends some credence to the statement I made in a column I wrote two weeks ago. Just because there are Muslims offended by the Charlie Hebdo caricatures, for example, doesn’t mean they want to kill or hurt anyone. Making such assumptions also leads to making generalizations. Indeed, the political radicals only made up 7 percent of Muslims interviewed across 10 countries, the highest concentration being in the area of Egypt. The attitudes being presented in Western media to ideologically combat entire religions seem to suggest some potentially nefarious action, yet no one wants to follow their feeble logic to its conclusionary end. You want to target a violent sect inside a much larger, non-violent sect, but where does one draw the line?
MICHAEL HOMAN is a senior in journalism.
We will continue to fight those who threaten us at home, as well as our allies, but effective ostracization would flounder, and all other alternatives are essentially considered unethical. However, if enough fear is pumped into a people, the consideration for ethical concern is quite minuscule and instead a dramatic, over-arching and unreasonable fear for extreme measure takes its place. Fear is a powerful motivator. But sweeping generalizations towards a religious faith that seek to discredit and negate any positive or redeeming qualities is just as bad as having a propaganda machine doing so. michoman@indiana.edu

There are plenty of people out there who ascribe to the whole “everything happens for a reason” line of thinking. There is something comforting in the idea that there is something, or possibly someone, steering us through life and that there is a clear plan and predetermined outcomes. Fate and reason reassure us and affirm to us that everything will, in fact, be alright in the end. We, as humans, need assurance and comfort. But then, a New Hampshire woman, Janelle Jones, ordered a chicken sandwich at her local Burger King drive-thru, and instead of receiving the expected sandwich, she got a bag full of cash. Jones was on her way home when she opened the bag. Inside was $2,631 in cash. It was originally intended as a Burger King bank deposit, not as a lovely gift for the casual Burger King drive-thru customer. Jones called her husband, Matthew, to share with him the story of the miraculous money. And when she got home there was some debate about they should do with this money that fell into their laps. Let’s face it, no one is perfect. And if a greasy bag of cash was just handed to you at the drive-thru, you’d probably at the very least consider keeping it and start fantasizing about all the cool new things you could treat yo’ self to with your new-found wealth. In the end, the couple made the decision to return the bag of cash to the Burger King because they are decent human beings and it was the right thing to do. And now, let us return to the question of, “everything happens for a reason.” I’m fairly certain that the employee who gave the bag of cash to Jones is going to have to work extra hard to convince the world this mistake happened for a reason. I actually find it a little difficult to wrap my head around this situation because it’s possibly the most ridiculous fast food mistake I have ever heard about. It’s almost as if the poor, unlucky soul was trying to goof up because that is the most logical explanation I can come up with for this situation. Nothing else makes any logical sense. Fast food and wads of cash seem to be two very different items, but then again, maybe not. Regardless, the Joneses had their faith and their integrity tested that day. So I suppose that is reason enough. They could have kept the money. Instead, they searched their own personal beliefs and faith and they made the choice to give back what was not theirs. Everyone is going to have tests thrown at them by the universe, and it’s wise to be on the lookout for them. You can learn so much about yourself by the decisions you make and the manner in which you make them. You might as well treat yo’ self from time to time, because you never know what will happen. The universe has its reasons. johnstra@indiana.edu

Guthrie Brothers bring Scarborough Fair to town By Adam Smith adbsmith@indiana.edu | @adbsmithIU
From those who lived through the Woodstock era to current IU undergrads, a large audience crowded the BuskirkChumley Theater Saturday night to enjoy the music of Simon & Garfunkel. The Guthrie Brothers, a brother duo from Wisconsin, led the crowd through the show, titled “Scarborough Fair — A Simon and Garfunkel Experience.” Throughout the night the brothers told stories about the classic folk-rock duo, quizzed the audience with trivia and performed songs with audience participation encouraged. It was more than just a tribute show. “The one thing we avoided was calling it a tribute show, because really what it does is pay homage to a folk duo that changed a generation,” Lisa Reiss, the president of Pearl Production, said. The two brothers have traveled all over the country performing their Simon & Garfunkel show for six or seven years, Reiss said. Their show in Bloomington marked the end of a short, three-day tour of
the Midwest. Jeb Guthrie told the crowd they were glad to be here after planning the show for a year. “It’s a real pleasure to be here and play our appreciation for Simon & Garfunkel,” he said. The songs the brothers performed spanned the entirety of Simon & Garfunkel’s career, from “The Sound of Silence” to “Cecilia.” They even reached backward to the years before their career, playing “All I Have to Do is Dream” by the Everly Brothers and “Hey Schoolgirl,” a song that Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel performed on American Bandstand in 1957 under the name of Tom & Jerry. “I know it’s not just Simon & Garfunkel, but it’s really just seminal in their career,” Guthrie said. The crowd raised its voice to join the brothers in their performance of “The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy)” with Jeb Guthrie conducting the crowd through rounds of the song’s hook, “ba-da-da da da da da, feelin’ groovy.” Earl Singleton, a professor at the IU Maurer School of Law, attended the concert
because the Guthrie Brothers’ brother-in-law is a colleague of his. Singleton said he loves Simon & Garfunkel, most likely having first heard the band while in college in 1967. Singleton also said he doesn’t think anybody can quite do justice to Simon & Garfunkel’s voices and the way they harmonize, but that the Guthrie Brothers are doing a good job. Steve Bailey said he and his wife came to Bloomington from Upland, Ind., for a weekend away from the kids and decided to go to the show. Bailey said after adjusting to the fact that it’s not Simon & Garfunkel onstage, it’s really a great show. He said his father, who was a big fan of Simon & Garfunkel, introduced him to their music when he was young. “There was a time when I set up my own little record player and tape deck together and I would do little radio shows,” Bailey said. “So I would pull out all of his albums and I would act like a disc jockey and I would play through all the Simon & Garfunkel.”
Major artistic influence does not always come in the form of full-sized gallery exhibits. Sometimes, just a few art pieces can make a statement. The IU Art Museum will introduce two new installations into their permanent collection Tuesday, Jan. 27. Jenny McComas, class of 1949 curator of the Art of the Western World after 1800 said the first installation, titled “Pop Textiles,” showcases three pieces by famous artists from the height of the pop art movement. “The ‘Pop Textiles’ installation features three works by Richard Lindner, Roy Lichtenstein and Claes Oldenburg, artists associated with pop art in the 1960s,” McComas said. “We will be showing two large banners by Linder and Lichtenstein and a ‘soft sculpture,’ a sculpture made out of textiles, by Oldenburg called the ‘Miniature Soft Drum Set.’” McComas said the second installation focuses on artist Robert Salmon, whose inspiration came from a more concrete realm. “The Robert Salmon installation features two paintings by this artist from the 1820s to 1830s,” McComas said. “Salmon was born in England, but spent a few decades in Boston during the early 19th century. He was primarily a marine painter; we have one marine image and one landscape on view.” McComas said Salmon’s pieces were special because they held a sort of fanciful quality while still doing justice to the subject matter. “His life dates closely correspond with romanticism, a movement that affected the arts in Europe and America in the late 18th and early 19th centuries,” McComas said. “The paintings reflect the concern of romantic artists with depicting the landscape in a manner that was both topographically accurate and awe-inspiring.” McComas said each installation offers patrons of

“I thought that this would be an interesting angle on pop art. These works link pop art in some ways to the revitalization of fiber arts in the 1960s and 1970s.” Jenny McComas, class of 1949 curator of the Art of the Western World after 1800
the museum a glimpse into a part of art history they may not have seen through previous exhibits. “We have rarely shown the works that will be in these installations; none of them are on permanent view in our gallery,” McComas said. McComas added that the ‘Pop Textiles’ installation will show visitors a different medium of pop art. “‘Pop Textiles’ will give visitors the chance to see works in a medium that is not typically associated with pop art,” McComas said. “‘Robert Salmon’ will introduce viewers to a lesser-known artist of the early 19th century.” McComas said her decision to display the works of the pop art era came from a desire to show a new perspective on a well-known art form. “I thought that this would be an interesting angle on pop art,” McComas said. “These works link pop art in some ways to the revitalization of fiber arts in the 1960s and 1970s.” The “Robert Salmon” display, McComas said, shows fans of already existing installations another artist’s view through the romantic lens. “I thought he would be an interesting artist to feature because we have two paintings, and they will complement other early 19th century works in the gallery,” McComas said.
McComas said she hopes IU students and art connoisseurs alike come out to see these installations at the art museum while they last. “These will be on view through the end of the semester, so I hope people will be able to make time to come to the museum and see these works.” McComas emphasized the influence seeing these pieces can have on one’s artistic view, and said she hopes those who see the works fully appreciate the opportunity they have. McComas said people should see the installations “to see interesting works of art that rarely make it into art history books or even into museum galleries.” McComas added that the installations could be a learning experience for viewers. “People can expand their knowledge of art and visual cultures,” she said. Overall, McComas said the pleasure she takes from viewing these installations is enough of a reason to encourage others to come take a look. “I hope they will also simply enjoy these works for their aesthetic beauty and vibrancy,” McComas said. “I think that both installations offer insight into the aesthetics of their respective time periods, and the ‘Pop Textiles,’ in particular, are a lot of fun to look at.”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 have been higher had he not been limited slightly with leg cramps. As a team, Ohio State (165, 5-3) shot 62 percent from the field. Forward Jae’Sean Tate was the most efficient player from the floor, converting on 9-of-10 shots and scoring 20 points. But even Tate said his scoring was not as much from his own doing as it was Russell and Scott’s. “They did a great job of distributing the ball,” junior guard Yogi Ferrell said.
But Russell wasn’t just passing, he was scoring himself. He hit back-to-back 3-pointers to give Ohio State a 62-50 lead with 8:45 left in the second half. He admitted he wasn’t even looking for the shots. He felt himself starting to cramp. But when he saw a gap, he took advantage. “I guess they forgot about me,” Russell said. The made buckets were just another blow for IU. Their offense, led by a game-high 26 points from Ferrell, kept the Buckeyes from running away with the
game, but their inability to get defensive stops made it impossible to come back within striking distance. Added to that, IU suffered from unforced errors of its own. The Hoosiers had 15 turnovers leading to 26 Ohio State points. Ferrell and sophomore forward Collin Hartman blamed communication. They both said the teams’ cuts weren’t quick or sharp enough, echoing what they said following a 20-point loss to Michigan State earlier this month. The combination of poor defense and turnovers meant

As a recent graduate, she offered advice to aspiring musical theater majors to keep an open mind about the business. “I think that a lot of people have one specific goal, like they only want to do Shakespeare acting or tap dance,” Shrader said. “Just keep your options open and learn as much as you can, not only as a human being but also as a performer, because it can only help you. From there, that will help you find what you’re super passionate about.” Kaitlyn Smith, an IU junior and musical theater major, said what makes “Sister Act” so recognizable and interesting to the audience is the pure ridiculousness of the show.
thinking about all of the servers. It was hard to think about that.” Staff at the Village Deli said they are also concerned about what to do for work until the restaurant reopens. Server Morgan Anderson was working in the backhouse when the fire happened. He said his first thought was “new job,” adding that many people who work at the restaurant are unable to wait until the Village Deli opens up again. The portion of Kirkwood Avenue was blocked off during the response to the fire. Customers hoping to eat at Village Deli were still approaching the scene in the early afternoon, as no damage was done to the front. Though many walked away with a free meal, Rodriguez and her friends found their waitress outside and gave her money for her service. Bari Goldman contributed to this story. “Anything that’s a little bit crazy, people are going to want to watch because it’s different than what they see in their daily lives,” Smith said. “It’s not the only nun musical, but it’s this idea of having a ridiculous concept and having it on stage.” Smith has performed in four shows at IU and choreographed three other productions. She said audiences love shows like “Sister Act” because of its over-the-top nature. “The thing about ‘Sister Act’ and a lot of comedic musicals is that they are really there to have a good time,” Smith said. “It is one that can fall under if it’s done wrong, then it can be over the top, but if it’s done right then it can be really witty and funny.” Maria K. Talbert, associate director at IU Auditorium, said in an email they are thrilled to host its Bloomington debut. “‘Sister Act’ is one of the most entertaining musicals Broadway has seen in recent years,” Talbert said. “It is uplifting, hilarious and filled with incredible music.”

To the brink and back Three months ago, IU basketball was in a tailspin. Now, it appears to have righted itself. That leaves just one question – what happened? By Alden Woods aldwoods@indiana.edu | @acw9293
The police were called to the scene after midnight on Halloween, red and blue lights bouncing off the trees. A Jeep Liberty had hit a pedestrian and was now stopped on 17th Street, next to Memorial Stadium’s Gate 6. In the distance, Assembly Hall loomed. Next to the Jeep, on the passenger side, a 19-year-old IU student lay on the pavement. A single streetlight shined down on him. From it hung a faded IU Athletics banner. The three students who had been in the vehicle gave their names to the Bloomington police. One, 18 years old and 6-foot-7, took the blame. He said that he had been driving and that the injured man was a friend. There was another complication. Both students — the one on the ground and the one who said he hit him — were IU basketball players. * * * In the days that followed the accident, details emerged of how a freshman forward could have struck one of his own teammates with a Jeep and fractured his skull. Emmitt Holt told police that he’d driven Devin Davis to the stadium parking lot and dropped him off. He was driving away on 17th Street with the other passengers, two young women, when Davis suddenly jumped in front of the car. Davis was rushed to IU Health Bloomington Hospital.
Holt, only 18, was cited for underage drinking and for driving with a blood alcohol content over 0.02. “Devin is not only a teammate but a great friend,” he said in a statement, “and it pains me to know that I have caused him harm.” The accident was the strangest, and most devastating, setback in a series of troubles that plagued IU basketball in the last year. Taken together, the incidents raised questions about the stability of the team — and IU Coach Tom Crean’s ability to lead the program. Last February, backup center Hanner Mosquera-Perea was arrested and charged with drunken driving. Four days later, an 8-foot-long piece of metal framing fell from the ceiling in an empty Assembly Hall and destroyed four seats in the lower bowl, forcing the postponement of that night’s game against Iowa. It was fitting — the sky was starting to fall. A month later, the Hoosiers were knocked out in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament and missed the NCAA Tournament. They weren’t invited to the NIT, either. Then came the exodus — eight players left the team before their graduation. In April, guards Yogi Ferrell and Stanford Robinson were arrested after they were caught using fake IDs to try to enter Kilroy’s Sports Bar. Then came Halloween weekend, with the accident and an ESPN report that Robinson and Troy Williams had failed drug tests and been suspended. Nine months. Three arrests and multiple charges. Two sus-

pensions. One lost season. It had become an offseason on the brink. Six days before the new season began, the program was spinning out of control. IU fans, notoriously demanding, grew restless. Calls for Crean’s job had been rising since the wins dried up, and the off-court issues only catalyzed those cries. Then, the Hoosiers took the court, and the unexpected happened. They won. And they kept winning, entering the national rankings for the first time in more than a year. Last Thursday night, in a nationally televised game, IU blew out then-No. 13 Maryland before a loss at Ohio State on Sunday. A program once on the verge of falling apart appears to have steadied itself. But the questions remain. How did the program tumble so disastrously and then regain
its footing so quickly? What went wrong, and then what went right? And is the recovery sustainable? * * * Even before 2014’s issues, it has been a tumultuous 40 years for IU basketball. Bob Knight won three national championships, but he also hit Kentucky’s coach in the back of the head during a game, was accused of assaulting a police officer in Puerto Rico, brought a donkey wearing a Purdue hat to his weekly television show, threw a chair across the Assembly Hall court, outraged feminists with insensitive comments about rape, mock-whipped a black player in practice, threw and shattered a potted plant SEE BASKETBALL, PAGE 9

SWIMMING AND DIVING
Shooting woes cost IU early By Brody Miller brodmill@indiana.edu | @Brody_Miller_
This was a different kind of IU women’s basketball game. Shots weren’t falling. Not a single first-half attempt from behind the 3-point line made its way into the basket. The Hoosiers (12-7, 2-6) have made the third-most 3-pointers in the Big Ten but shot 2-of-18 from deep in the 84-74 loss to No. 7 Maryland on Sunday. Instead of living and dying by the three, as IU usually does even if it’s not working, IU Coach Teri Moren and her team made an adjustment. “It could have gone one of two ways,” Moren said. “It could have gone like the Ohio State loss or it could have gone like this.” By this, Moren means the way IU kept attacking despite trailing 18 points at the half. By this, Moren means the fact that IU outscored Maryland 42-34 in the paint, something IU rarely does. IU did not make many shots from deep, but they adjusted and began attacking the rim aggressively, something Moren has been trying to get her team to do more all season. The Hoosiers did it effectively against a highly ranked Big Ten opponent in Maryland. The team scrapped and fought to stay in the game. Whether it was from their scoring inside or their 25 points off turnovers, or even

their 10 fast break points, the Hoosiers did not score by 3-point shooting. Freshman guard Tyra Buss was the prime example of the adjustments IU made. She scored 19 points, much of which came from driving to the basket. “Offensively, I thought she was in attack mode throughout the afternoon,” Moren said. “We need our guards to continue to do that, get to the free throw line.” The fact that the Hoosiers were not making their 3-pointers did not mean they had to abandon deep shooting all together. That is one of the team’s best weapons. “You have to give them
some positive juice too, we are good shooters,” Moren said. While she stressed that IU needed to attack, use offthe-ball screens and try to get to the basket, she wanted them to take open shots. “We encouraged ourselves at halftime. We get open kick outs, shoot it. You’re open, shoot it,” Moren said. “Those shots are going to fall. A lot of it with us is that we have to have a short memory. We have to make sure our hands and feet are ready — we are locked and loaded. When that ball comes to us we need to shoot it with confidence.” So when freshman forward Amanda Cahill made

It was the Hoosiers’ 14th attempt, and it finally went in. A hole tends to be dug when a team shoots 0-of-11 from deep in the first half. IU made runs, but it still resulted in a 10-point loss. “Even though we didn’t shoot it terrific from the 3-point line, I was pleased with the way we kept attacking,” Moren said. “We didn’t back down.”
Late IU run not enough against Terps By Grace Palmieri gpalmier@indiana.edu @grace_palmieri
IU Coach Teri Moren can run drills to help her team improve its shooting, rebounding and defense. They can scrimmage to become more comfortable with plays. The IU practice squad helps to simulate the opponent’s personnel from game to game. But what’s ultimately led to a now three-game losing streak, Moren said, is something she can’t teach — toughness. “It’s an intangible that all great teams have,” Moren said. It’s something the Hoosiers didn’t have at the end of a 4-point loss to Minnesota, when the Gophers went on an 11-2 run to close

the game. When Penn State threw the first punch last Thursday, Moren said her team just laid down and took it. Despite a 84-74 loss to No. 7 Maryland on Sunday, Moren saw glimpses of the toughness she wants from her young team. IU’s halftime deficit was 18. Early in the second half, IU’s short runs were answered by even longer Maryland scoring spurts. But with 6:31 to go, trailing by 18 once again, the Hoosiers went on a 7-0 run to cut the Terrapins’ lead to just 11. IU used a 2-2-1 press to slow down the Maryland offense.

sion got another steal and scored herself. Though it was too late, IU’s deficit was just 10 in a game where it had once trailed by as many as 24. Moren saw her team stand up, and fight. “We’ve been working really hard in practice just competing with each other, and at each other, and going at it,” Gassion said. Gassion grabbed a teamhigh nine rebounds and finished with 18 points. Moren commended her team’s toughness on the boards. Despite being outrebounded 40-27, the Hoosiers allowed just nine Terrapin offensive rebounds. TMoren said it’s not easy trying to defend a team with 11 players who can score. “I thought in the second half we did a much better job of getting out to
the shooters,” she said. “I thought there were several times down the stretch where we did a good job of closing out the possession with a box out.” That defensive intensity translated to the offensive end. Moren has said she wants to see more aggression out of some of her freshmen, especially guard Tyra Buss. Buss consistently got into the lane and to the freethrow line Sunday. Moren continues to stress the importance of playing every second of the 40-minute game. On Sunday, Moren said, they just ran out of time. “This is an unforgiving league,” she said. “Nobody feels sorry for you. We hung in there with the top six team in the country, but that’s not good enough.”
Both IU’s men’s and women’s teams managed comeback victories Saturday against Purdue in their senior night dual meets. The men won the match by a 24-point margin with a 162138 score. The women’s team survived the Boilermakers by only four points, winning 151.5-147.5. Although IU was able to walk out with the victory, Coach Ray Looze said he was not happy with how the meet started off. “We started off flat, for the women after the break we had no margin for error,” Looze said. “They won every race after that.” After falling behind early, the women were in a dog fight to catch back up. Going into the final race, the Hoosiers were down by five points and really had to perform well in
order to pull out the victory. “We really did it to ourselves,” Looze said. “We dug ourselves a hole.” The final race of the meet was the 400 freestyle relay. Juniors Brooklyn Snodgrass and Haley Lips, freshman Kennedy Goss and senior Cynthia Pammett came through for IU as they swam a time of 3:22.36 to take first place. The second relay team consisted of all freshmen. Kaitlin Kitchens, Ali Rockett, Gabriela Rajic and Delaney Barnard finished in 3:24.68 to claim third place and help claim the overall victory. Before the match, Looze said how important it was to get those second and third-place finishes. “If it wasn’t for those we would have not been able to win the match,” Looze said. SEE SWIM, PAGE 12

Sophomore clinches two IU victories in Kick Off Classic in Dartmouth From IDS reports
IU sophomore Matthew McCoy has started the 2015 dual season how he ended 2014 — winning matches. Twice this weekend McCoy found himself in a third set with the team match tied 3-3, meaning everything hinged on McCoy’s success or failure. Both times, McCoy won, giving No. 64 IU victories against No. 65 Cornell and No. 46 Dartmouth in the Kick Off Classic at Dartmouth. On Friday, McCoy won at the No. 4 position 6-4, 6-7 (3), 6-3 against Cornell’s Chris Vrabel to clinch IU’s first win of the spring season. Saturday’s test proved even tougher. McCoy found himself down 5-4 in the third set with Dartmouth serving for the match. To make things even tougher, McCoy’s opponent Brendan Tannenbaum has a serve that can reach 130 miles per hour. McCoy won the game and forced a third set tiebreak where things did not get any easier.
Tannenbaum jumped out to a 5-1 lead, needing only two more points to clinch a Dartmouth victory. McCoy responded by winning the next six points before clinching an IU victory with an 8-6 win in the tiebreak. These two clinching victories come after McCoy did the same in the 2014 Big Ten Tournament, clinching an IU win against Minnesota. IU gained victories in singles Saturday from senior Sven Lalic and freshman Raheel Manji. IU also won the doubles point with a 6-4 victory from junior Chris Essick and sophomore Stefan Lugonjic and another 6-4 victory from Lalic and Manji. IU lost the doubles point against Cornell. In addition to McCoy’s singles victory, IU also won at the No. 1 and No. 2 positions thanks to juniors Sam Monette and Daniel Bednarczyk. IU will next play at Vanderbilt on Jan. 30 before returning home Feb. 1 to face Western Michigan. Michael Hughes

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 near a University secretary, was accused by a player of choking him and screamed at an IU freshman for addressing him as “Knight” instead of his preferred “Mr. Knight.” When thenIU President Myles Brand fired him in 2000, students rioted, marched on Brand’s campus home and hung the president in effigy. Then came Mike Davis, who almost won a national championship, but didn’t. Then came Kelvin Sampson, who resigned after major NCAA recruiting violations. A former player later said Sampson had allowed drug use to divide the locker room. In April 2008, Crean was handed the reins of a program wrecked by sanctions and probations. A decimated program slogged through three years of losing before it leapt back to relevance with one shot. Christian Watford’s gamewinning 3-pointer against No. 1 Kentucky brought IU to its highest mark of the Crean era. When ball met the net that night, it shocked the fan base out of hibernation. It woke up hungry for the team’s first championship in more than 20 years. The pressure came back to IU — it was time to win. Sports Illustrated covers and nationally televised games soon followed. That tension built with each of the next two seasons, which had promise but ended without a title, and reached a boiling point when the team underperformed last season. It wasn’t enough — not when five national championship banners hung from the ceiling. “Indiana fans don’t just want to win, they want to win a certain way,” said Dustin Dopirak, who spent five seasons covering IU basketball for the Bloomington HeraldTimes. “Winning the right way, there’s a lot of parameters to that according to Indiana fans ... they want to play like Bobby did. There’s a lot of pressure to deal with, and there’s a lot of pressure to do it exactly the way it’s been done before.” Even more so, IU fans want that tradition extended. It’s why the Hoosiers wear candy-striped pants, why there was such an outrage at adding the Big Ten logo to Assembly Hall’s court and why players’ last names have stayed off the jerseys. It’s the very reason Tom Crean took the job. “It’s Indiana,” he said at his first IU press conference. “I feel it’s the pinnacle, the absolute pinnacle, of college basketball.” Bob Knight took IU to that pinnacle. Fifteen years later, his legacy still looms. That expectation creates a disconnect between fans and players. IU’s fans might want the team to win like Knight did, but its players just want to play. That’s how Jerry Meyer, director of basketball scouting for 247 Sports and one of the country’s top recruiting analysts, views it. Knight’s shadow might hang over the program, he said, but the players probably don’t feel the same pressure. They were still in grade school when Knight was fired. “They don’t go to Indiana because Bobby Knight coached there and they won in the ‘80s,” Meyer said. “I would imagine there are a lot of kids that Indiana recruits that don’t even know who Bobby Knight is.” IU fans seemed content with that disconnect when the Hoosiers were winning and staying out of trouble. When the wins came less frequently and the off-court issues piled up, it became a problem. Since Knight’s firing, IU fans haven’t been shy about calling for change. Davis was chased out of Bloomington less than four years after taking IU to the national championship game, but the questions were different this time. IU fans weren’t just seeing losses. They were seeing arrests, suspensions and a 19-year-old player in serious condition. The anger mounted — a Google search of “Fire Tom Crean” brings up more than 300,000 results, including at least seven Twitter accounts created solely to call for his job. Fans dialed into Crean’s weekly radio show to question the program’s leadership and his job

IU vs. Penn State on Nov. 3, 2014
The Tom Crean era: 116-97, and a dramatic rise Tom Crean slogged through three seasons of losing at IU before the ‘Wat Shot’ in 2011. By beating No. 1 Kentucky, IU returned to relevance, making back-to-back Sweet 16s. Crean’s rebuild was on track — until a lackluster 2013-14 season put it in doubt.

security. When he was introduced before the season’s first game at Assembly Hall, boos from the crowd rose above the cheers. The program was nearing rock bottom, and there seemed to be only one way out: Winning. If IU found success, Meyer said, it could weather a couple off-court missteps. “That’s all anyone cares about,” he said. “They care about winning.” * * * The latest string of offcourt troubles started last February. A light snow was falling over Bloomington just before 5 a.m. when a police officer noticed a black Acura driving erratically. According to an IU Police Department report, the officer watched as the car drove south down Dunn Street, past Siam House and 420 smoke shop, before bouncing off one curb, then another. The officer pulled the Acura over near Ballantine Road. Inside was IU basketball player Hanner Mosquera-Perea, his 0.15 blood alcohol content almost twice the legal limit. The officer arrested MosqueraPerea and took him to Monroe County Jail, where he was charged with two counts of operating while intoxicated. Tom Crean took to Twitter to announce that Mosquera-Perea had been suspended indefinitely. “We are disappointed in him but also disappointed for him,” Crean wrote in a series of tweets. “He knows he made some terrible choices which have turned into big mistakes. Hanner has let his family, loved ones and our program down and knows that with choices come consequences.” Mosquera-Perea missed just two games before returning to the court. He was scheduled to miss three, but Crean dropped it to two after the metal framing fell from Assembly Hall’s ceiling and postponed a game. “The fact that Hanner’s suspension was initially three games and taken down to two — basically because the pile fell, he said that he shouldn’t be punished because the pile fell and the game had to be moved back — that took a little of the fear of God out,” Dopirak said. The Hoosiers made it just 10 weeks before finding trouble again. Two more players, Yogi Ferrell and Stanford Robinson — both underage — were caught trying to enter Kilroy’s Sports Bar with fake IDs. They were turned away and arrested, each later charged with underage drinking and possession of false identification. “We are aware of the two

infractions with a couple of the guys on our team,” Crean said in a statement. “This is about poor judgment, selfishness of actions and disrespect for what this program stands for.” Ferrell and Robinson were arrested in the offseason, so neither player missed a game. Crean didn’t reveal how they were disciplined. Then came Halloween night, with Holt giving his statement to police and Davis lying on the pavement, below the IU Athletics banner. In the hospital that weekend, Davis was surrounded by his family and Coach Crean. They celebrated when Davis was able to put together a sentence. His prognosis was improving. The future of the team was still uncertain. That Monday, ESPN’s Jeff Goodman reported that Troy Williams and Stanford Robinson had failed drug tests and had been suspended. At his weekly radio show, Crean fought to hold back the tears as he talked about how parents entrust him to watch over their sons. He acknowledged that Holt had made a mistake, but said he still cared about him. “You don’t like the decision making, you don’t like how it gets there, you don’t like the action,” he said. “But you don’t stop loving the person.” When the show went to commercial break, Crean squeezed shut his eyes and slumped back in his chair. The crowd didn’t seem to notice. Neither did a group of reporters in the corner. Crean ran a hand through his long black hair and sighed at the ceiling. When the break ended, Crean’s composure returned. He sat up straighter, hands punctuating each word. Problems within a team weren’t unique to IU, he said. What made this situation different was it had reached the public. “There’s things that go on with a team,” he said, the words flowing more freely. “It happened long before I got here, and it’ll happen long after I’m gone. It’s part of it. It’s part of college sports.” He announced a fourgame suspension for Holt and addressed the ESPN report. “Stanford Robinson and Troy Williams — I was going to announce it in a couple days, but I’ll do it tonight — they’re going to sit for four games as well.” His hands tapped on the table in front of him. Crean said he didn’t know when the problems would stop. “Am I saying that’s the last one? No. I wish I was,” he said. “I wish I was. I don’t
know if it’s the last one. Nobody knows.” Then came the call-in portion of the show. The show’s host welcomed a caller to the program and put him on the line. J.T. has a question about the team’s 3-point shooting, he said. Except it wasn’t J.T. on the phone. Instead it was Tyler, a former manager under Crean. His question was simple. “Why does Coach Crean still deserve his job?” Crean froze. The room went silent. The show moved on. * * * The opening tipoff of the new season was three days away, but IU was already losing. Fans panicked. The team wasn’t projected highly in preseason rankings, and the players certainly weren’t acting like they had under Knight. His players didn’t get into trouble, fans cried, so why were Crean’s? Dan Dakich, a former IU player under Knight, acted as the team’s interim coach between Sampson and Crean and now hosts a three-hour daily radio show in Indianapolis. In his first show after the accident — even before the reports of failed drug tests — Dakich said he was embarrassed by the rash of problems. “Indiana players, you’re getting ready to get your coach fired,” Dakich said on the air. “I love Indiana basketball down to my core. It’s who I am. But not this crap — don’t tell me boys will be boys. That’s crap. This is the new Indiana basketball.” Dakich didn’t want Crean fired. He argued that Crean deserved to keep coaching. And the season, he said, was not a lost cause. “They win, the stain goes away. They lose, the stain gets bigger.” * * * After a disappointing early season home loss to Eastern Washington, the questions got even louder. An up-and-down nonconference run did little to quiet them. IU beat a physical Pittsburgh team, then was blown out by Louisville in New York City. It took in-state supremacy with a win against Butler in Indianapolis, then lost in overtime to Georgetown, again in New York City. The Hoosiers opened the Big Ten season with a narrow win at Nebraska, then sleepwalked through a blowout loss at Michigan State. Then IU put together its best stretch of basketball this season to win four Big Ten games in a row, knocking off two ranked opponents and winning a tough road game at Illinois. The players that came
under fire for off-court incidents were key to the turnaround. Halfway through the season, Yogi Ferrell was among the Big Ten’s best players. Troy Williams was having a breakout season, drawing talk of his NBA potential, and Stanford Robinson and Emmitt Holt became valuable rotation players. Hanner Mosquera-Perea started every game before injuring his knee. Devin Davis went back to Indianapolis to recover and rehabilitate. His teammates draped his No. 15 jersey over a chair while they practiced. Crean’s coaching performance was now earning him praise as his best in his time at IU. He took a team picked to finish ninth in Big Ten preseason polls — a team that had no post presence and often played four guards at a time — to a 15-5 record in January. He did so in style, with IU scoring more points than any team in the Big Ten and relying heavily on 3-point shooting to overcome a lack of size. The Hoosiers beat four ranked teams in five tries. IU entered the rankings itself, slotting in at No. 23 in last week’s polls, and backed up that ranking with a 19-point thumping of then-No. 13 Maryland. It all goes back to Crean. The Hoosiers entered every game with a natural disadvantage — they’re small, and size can’t be taught — but found ways to win anyway. Crean said he couldn’t pin down how his team made it through, but deflected credit to his players. The adversity bonded them closer together, he said, and they controlled only what they could. Troy Williams put it more simply. “We just stayed together through everything,” he said. “Throughout all that’s happened, we just know that at the end of the day, it’s still us, the only ones that’s in the gym.” * * * Hoosier fans are still holding their breath, waiting to see whether the turnaround is for real. Until then, IU is doing all it can to keep the focus on the court. Three months after IU basketball almost came crashing down, the storyline has shifted. Now, at least on the surface, things are looking up. The Hoosiers are winning, and they’ve stayed out of trouble — at least publicly. What truly goes on inside IU basketball and the Department of Athletics remains unknown. There are always issues within a program, Crean said, whether the public knows about them or not. The team has steadied itself. It’s almost like nothing happened, like 2014 was a bad dream in Bloomington. But the Halloween night accident was just three months ago. The questions remain, even if nobody wants to talk about them. After the Maryland win, Crean wouldn’t say the off-court issues were completely a thing of the past. “No one’s sitting here thinking that,” Crean said. “Something could change tonight, right? You just have to deal with it. That’s all part of helping your guys grow up.” The No. 15 practice jersey that once was draped over a chair in the IU locker room isn’t there anymore. Devin Davis has returned to Bloomington. Though his recovery hasn’t allowed him back on the court yet, he’s been at practice and watched games from behind the bench. He’s challenging teammates to games of one-on-one. For his part in the accident — and the chaos that followed — Emmitt Holt has moved on. It took less than a month. After a breakout performance against Pittsburgh on Dec. 2, Holt sat at the press table, ready to answer questions. He talked about Davis’ family forgiving him, leaning on his teammates and growing as a man. Then came the question, point-blank. “Have you forgiven yourself yet?” Holt didn’t hesitate. “Yeah.” Next question.

TRACK AND FIELD
Anderson, Hoosiers fare well in invite By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu | @trlehman_IU
IU junior Dylan Anderson looked up to the ceiling and smiled, like he was trying to understand the history he had just written his name into. The former Bloomington High School North standout had just finished a two-day heptathlon with a total of 5561 points — 256 points behind the top heptathlete in IU history, Derek Drouin, in 2013. Now, Anderson is second in school history. “It’s just cool,” Anderson said. “I didn’t go into this meet looking to break the record. I wasn’t plugging in numbers to figure out what I needed to do. I just came in trying to compete hard for these guys.” This is nothing new for Anderson. The 2015 Gladstein Invitational showed flashes of the 2014 Invitational, where he finished sixth in IU history, along with a personal best of 5,147 points. “Shot put was our weakest event, and pole vault is something we could all use improvement on,” Anderson said on his 414-point improvement. Since the 2014 Invitational, Anderson improved his shot put from 12.13 meters to 13.48, and he improved his pole vault from 4.25 meters to 4.80. The only event that Anderson did not improve upon was the 1,000-meter run, in which he ran two seconds slower than in 2014’s Gladstein Invitational. He won five of the seven events hosted by the heptathlon. “We would like for them to find one event and be able to compete in that event alone,” IU Coach Ron Helmer said. “But with 5,500-plus perfor-
mances, it’s tough to say that. Both Anderson and Keller performed great, so we are very proud of them.” Junior Stephen Keller, Anderson’s teammate in the heptathlon, also had a historic performance, finishing second in the invitational with 5,437 points, earning him fourth place in IU history. Keller improved his point total by 357 from the 2014 Invitational, and he drastically improved his shot put throw from 9.83 meters to 12.77 meters. Both of their marks top the NCAA Division I Heptathlon list, qualifying them for the Indoor Championship on March 13 and 14 and making them the only new Hoosiers to qualify. Sophomore Michelle Adeniyi also competed in her first pentathlon of the year, finishing fourth with a total of 3,261 points and completing a second-place finish in shot put at 12.04 meters. Freshman Jill Whitman won the women’s 3,000-meter run with a time of 9:33.08, which placed her second in the Big Ten, and just six spots off the qualifying list. “I just ran like Coach Helmer told me to,” Whitman said. “I honestly had no idea that I would be even close to qualifying. Training with the girls on the team makes a really big difference.” Victories for the men included sophomore Tre’tez Kinnaird in the 600-meter run, sophomore Paul Galas in the high jump, and both the 1,600-meter and 3,200-meter relays. The Hoosiers host the IU Relays on Friday and Saturday in another two-day meet at Gladstein Fieldhouse.

BASKET CASE
Hoosiers have been in a season of runs Every time the IU men’s basketball team gets some momentum, something causes it to hit the brakes. This statement is true in both the micro and macro. It seems that whenever the Hoosiers get on a solid scoring run, the opposition counters with a run of their own. But even in terms of the whole season, whenever IU strings a few good wins together it falls short in unimpressive fashion. IU was ranked No. 23 in the AP Poll before defeating No. 13 Maryland 89-70. A win at Ohio State would have propelled the Hoosiers near the top 15. But IU struggled on Sunday and lost by 12 to the Buckeyes. And frankly, it never even felt that close. Every time the Hoosiers clawed to within six or seven points, Ohio State’s freshmen were there to answer. Guard D’Angelo Russell asserted himself as the best freshman and one of the best players in the Big Ten. And forward Jae’Sean Tate finished everything down low. Tate finished nine-of-10 from the field with 20 points. Russell had 22 points and 10 assists. On the other end of the floor, though, IU sophomore forward Collin Hartman was again impressive. Until he missed a desperate 3-pointer near the end of the game, Hartman was 4-of-4 from the field, all threes. That means over 63 minutes of basketball, the “center” was 7-7 from deep. But it wasn’t enough.
» SWIM
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8 Although the men’s team went into the final race with an 11-point lead, they started the match off behind as well. The meet started with the 200 medley in which both the men and women finished second. “We lost the first relay, and

Hartman definitely struggled on defense trying to contain Tate and whoever else wound up in the post. That’s to be expected when a team’s starting center is a 6-foot-7 wing. The offense wasn’t the issue Sunday night. In fact, the offense looked pretty good when examining the shooting numbers. IU shot 52 percent from the field and 48 percent from deep, and for a team their size, they also had a respectable 26 points in the paint. As impressive as the IU offensive figures were, OSU’s were even better. The Buckeyes shot 73.7 percent on 2-point field goals and had a whopping 42 points in the paint.
IU Coach Tom Crean, along with everyone else in Value City Arena, recognized that Ohio State was dominating inside without the injured junior forward Hanner Mosquera-Perea. “We’ve played a couple games without Hanner,” Crean said. “It’s harder to protect the rim without that size. There’s a lot of different things [we can do]. We’ll continue to work on figuring them out because we’re not getting any bigger anytime soon.” I wrote after the Maryland game that IU is better with Hartman on the floor than Mosquera-Perea. One game isn’t going to change that opinion. Crean is correct. There are a lot of ways to help
the undersized sophomore down low. Hartman was never meant to be a center. He’s a wing player who has been thrust into a center-like role. He’ll get better as the season progresses, and the team will get better at helping him. There’s no break in the schedule, either. On Wednesday, IU will play at Purdue, where the Boilermakers will throw two seven-footers his way. If IU is trying to figure out how to help Hartman, they better figure it out soon.
we should have won that,” Looze said. “We gave some things away that we probably shouldn’t have.” The men walked away with eight first-place finishes out of 16 events, and the women had a total of nine. Going into the competition, Looze said he was expecting the women to do well in the butterfly. Sophomore Gia
Dalesandro ended up placing first in the 200 butterfly. “For the most part, the events we were supposed to do well in, we did a good job,” Looze said. “They got some upset victories. Every time we go to Lafayette, Purdue brings their A game.” The next matchup for the men will be in Columbus, Ohio, to compete against
the Buckeyes on Saturday, Jan. 31. The women will be at home Friday, Jan. 30, as they host a dual meet against Louisville. “I’m really proud of the women, probably the biggest comeback in our team’s history,” Looze said. “We can’t play this way against Louisville Friday. We have to start off sharper.”
