Commencement venue changes By Anna Hyzy akhyzy@indiana.edu | @annakhyzy
Commencement for undergraduates in spring 2015 and spring 2016 will take place in Memorial Stadium as a result of renovations to Assembly Hall. There will be only one undergraduate ceremony each year instead of two ceremonies. Commencement has taken
place in Memorial Stadium in the past but has been in Assembly Hall since 2002. “The graduate and undergraduate ceremonies will still have the same traditions and popular elements as commencements that were held in Assembly Hall,” IU spokesperson Ryan Piurek said. Commencement in December 2015 will not be affected by Assembly Hall construction,
according to the University. The renovations, funded by a $40 million donation from IU alumna Cynthia Simon Skjodt to IU athletics, will begin after basketball season. IU President Michael McRobbie announced last December that the building will be renamed Simon Skojdt Assembly Hall when the renovations are complete, according to the University.
Piurek said construction plans have been set to avoid affecting men’s and women’s basketball games. Teresa Barnett, executive assistant at the Office of University Commencement and Ceremonies, said the planning process for this spring’s commencement has begun and is going smoothly. “It’s just gonna be different,” she said.
Barnett said nothing will be done to alter the metal bench seating at Memorial Stadium. “For guests in general, it’s just what it is,” she said. “We’re not bringing any special seating in. We’re not moving bleachers or anything like that.” For guests with mobility restrictions, who would have trouble SEE VENUE, PAGE 6

1,000-yard club IU’s junior running back wants 1,000 yards rushing this season By Sam Beishuizen | sbeishui@indiana.edu | @Sam_Beishuizen
The 1,000-yard season is special to running backs. There’s something about the number. The measurable difference between 999 yards and 1,000 yards is barely noticeable, but the psychological gap is huge. You don’t get the title “1,000yard back” for being close. The quadruple-digit rushing mark has long been a defining measure for the nation’s best backs. Though recent years have seen increased emphasis on the passing game, the 1,000-yard rusher remains a go-to assessment of a run-
ning back’s talent. IU junior running back Tevin Coleman was seemingly destined to join the exclusive 1,000-yard rusher club last year, but an ankle sprain suffered against Illinois forced him to miss the final three games of the season. As a result, he came up short. Forty-two yards short. “I still think about it,” Coleman said. “That’s just a running back thing to get over 1,000 yards. That would mean a lot to me. That’s one

Bloomington was recently named the best city for work-life balance by Forbes, due in part to the many community and entertainment opportunities available to residents through the University. Lynn Coyne, assistant vice president of real estate at IU, said the survey, completed by the website NerdWallet, measured four major areas of community life: weekly hours worked, commute time, income and cost of living. NerdWallet is a website that gathers data and creates lists about economic and social statistics. Bloomington’s population has grown 33 percent since 1990 and has a low number of weekly working hours and a shorter average commute, according to NerdWallet’s posting. Bloomington is also home to IU, the largest university in the state and the top employer in the region. Hard-working people need options to give their lives balance, Coyne said. He said IU was a big part of helping Bloomington make the list because the campus community offers residents a variety of theater experiences, athletic events and other community outreaches. Several college towns appeared on the list, as well. Bloomington itself is the location of events such as Lotus World Music and Arts Festival and a variety of events at theaters such as the Buskirk-Chumley. All of these additions help to create a high quality of life, Coyne said. The student population might also have helped to lower the average number of hours worked per week to 31.9, he added. This high ranking helps people know more about the Bloomington community and might lead them to consider conducting business or attending college nearby, he said. Bloomington has made other Forbes lists, including best small places for businesses and careers. “I don’t think it would surprise people,” Coyne said of seeing Bloomington at the top of the list.
Howlin’ Brothers perform in Bloomington music series From IDS reports
The Deer Park Manor will premiere its first Americana Music Series at 6 p.m. Sunday. The Nashville, Tenn.-based band the Howlin’ Brothers are headlining the first concert. Local singersongwriter Jacob Latham will be the opening act. The Howlin’ Brothers are a blues, folk, vintage country and bluegrass band. The band features Ian Craft on
banjo, mandolin, fiddle, kick drum and vocals, Jared Green on guitar, harmonica, piano and vocals and Ben Plasse on bass and vocals. The three met in New York when they were studying classical music. Latham is an 18-year-old performer from Bloomington who released his first EP on March 1, 2013, titled “Midnight Train.” Tickets are $10 and available at Landlocked Music or at the door of the event.
The show starts at 7 p.m., and the doors open at 6 p.m. Supporting the community was the reason Deer Park Manor decided to start the concert series. Despite big bands performing at the Bishop Bar and the Bluebird Nightclub, event promoter Angela Backstrom saw Bloomington was missing out on Americana performances. “Every weekend I travel to Indianapolis or Louisville to see bands,”
she said. “But these groups weren’t coming to Bloomington.” The exact location of the concert is dependent on weather, Backstrom said. If the weather is suitable, the concert will take place in the courtyard under a tent with tables, chairs and a dance floor for attendees. Otherwise, the concert will be held inside the facility in an event hall. Although the Deer Park Manor is
typically used for weddings and other functions, Backstrom thought it was a good place to expand Bloomington’s music scene. The Deer Park Manor was built from 1953 to 1956 and has been home to a lot of history. President Richard Nixon and President Dwight Eisenhower were guests there. “It’s a beautiful old estate,” Backstrom said. SEE HOWLIN’, PAGE 6

Campus D, E bus routes merge
Research preserve honors professor, reveals new major By Kathrine Schulze schulzek@indiana.edu | @kas_schulze
By Kathrine Schulze schulzek@indiana.edu | @kas_schulze
The D bus will no longer be seen on campus streets this year. It has merged with the E route and adopted its name. This is not the first time the D route has been discontinued, said Perry Maull, operations manager for Campus Bus Services. Before the 2007-08 school year there hadn’t been a D bus in quite a while, he said. “The D has been sort of on again, off again, on again, off again over the years,” he said. Sophomore Emma Sperry, who lived in Teter last year, rode the D route frequently to get where she needed to go on campus. “My biggest problem with
the D route last year is that there weren’t enough buses,” she said. “Everyone’s just stuffed on the bus.” The E route will have the same number of buses as last year’s D route: two buses in the morning, with the addition of one more at 12:30 p.m. She added that she likely wouldn’t be riding the bus often. The E route, while still going all the way to Evermann apartments for its recovery point, will be looping around campus and is the only campus bus to go by Willkie Residence Center and Forest Quad. On the weekend, the E bus will also go to College Mall. The D route, the logistics of which have often been prob-
lematic for the Campus Bus Service, was considered obsolete by the Student Transportation Board last April at the board meeting. The recovery point, the stop where the bus often sits for 10 to 15 minutes, has been changed multiple times since the 2007 school year to account for construction and, most recently, the addition of a bike lane down Third Street, Maull said. “We’ve always had a problem, because it was a loop, where do you take its recovery point?” Maull said. The Campus Bus Service had the added problem of construction that will begin this year on Jordan Avenue near Third Street, and now that the A bus is back to its
pre-Hodge Hall construction route, there will be more buses on the same streets, he said. “That’s when we started tossing around, ‘OK, can we sort of solve a lot of different things by just putting the E route going down Rose, and then do we need to have the D route continue?’” Maull said. The decision was made at the Student Transportation Meeting in April to discontinue the D route, and it’ll take some time for the Campus Bus Service to see how the change will affect ridership, he said. “We’ll have to see what ridership does,” he said. “In general, I think ridership is going to go up, because the A route is going back to its old pattern.”
Fiji construction moving forward By Lindsay Moore liramoor@indiana.edu | @_LindsayMoore
The cobblestone streets of University Courts will soon be shaking due to the upcoming construction resulting from the Phi Gamma Delta housing switch. The relocation of the Fiji house has been in the works since last year. The move has been controversial, as it could have caused the destruction of multiple houses along Eighth Street. It also caused WIUX, IU’s student radio, to vacate its longtime home, also on Eighth Street. Five of the six houses in question with the Fiji move will be uprooted and relocated. The five houses that could withstand the move will be placed on lots in the University Courts owned by IU.
IU might to use the homes from Eighth Street for faculty or residential housing, Mark Land, IU spokesman said. The process of uprooting and relocating the homes is projected to start in October and be finished by Christmas break, Land said. Transporting the homes rather than demolishing them resulted from various meetings with the Bloomington Historical Preservation Commission, Land said. “We understand that people care deeply about the architecture,” Land said. “That’s one of the beautiful things about Bloomington, that people do care so much.” Much like its neighbors, Kappa Alpha Theta sorority, the Fiji house will keep the character of the historic neighborhood. The fraternity house will be constructed
with two-toned limestone, similar to buildings on campus. “We wanted something that was befitting of that location, and there’s very strong architecture that fronts Woodlawn right now,” said Thomas Morrison, vice president of capital planning and facilities. The University hopes the Fiji house will continue the architectural transition from campus to Woodlawn the same way the Hutton Honors College and Collins do, Morrison said. Plans for the Fiji house have been approved, but construction will not begin until the fraternity has raised the funds to do so. Fiji will issue an official notice to the University when they are financially ready to build. Fiji signed a deal in June
with the IU Foundation to switch properties if the fraternity has the money within three years. It has not been confirmed what Fiji’s current property on Third Street will be transformed into. The lot will most likely be used for academic buildings, Morrison said. The University’s main objective for obtaining this land was that it was one of the few lots the University did not own in the Old Crescent. “We do have to selectively think about where are the campus edges and where do we need to acquire property that allows us the flexibility to do the things we need to do in the future,” Morrison said. “There’s a master plan in terms of having the land that we need, and then at some point we’ll build a building.”

IU biology professor Keith Clay was honored Wednesday for his work in creating the IU Research and Teaching Preserve. New leadership for the preserve was also announced at the event, which took place on site, in addition to the unveiling of a new major for students. “This event is really more about celebrating the leadership that Dr. Keith Clay has shown in creating the IU Research and Teaching Preserve and having students out here for courses and lab work and research,” said Sarah Mincey, associate director of Integrated Program in the Environment. Clay, who is stepping down as director of the preserve, played a key role in preserving the land that the preserve now sits on, Mincey said. “It’s kind of a great example that all of the entities that are involved in this event are working together in a very concrete way,” she said. Clay is a professor in the evolution, ecology and behavior program. His research area is ecology. His research focuses on the role that microbes play in ecosystems, according to the Department of Biology. He currently has ongoing research in four areas all within ecology. The new degree
announced, a Bachelor of Arts in environmental and sustainability studies, is now officially available to students. “With the B.A. program, we have such breadth in what students can study,” she said. “There’s a concentration in food studies, for example.” The new B.A. covers more of the social and humanity side of environmental studies, Mincey added. “The B.A. is unique because it is awarded by both the College of Arts and Sciences as well as School of Public and Environmental Affairs,” Mincey said. She said the preserve represents a place where students in the B.A. program can come to study. The event, like the new leadership, represented several different organizations and schools working together, including the Integrated Program in the Environment, the Office of Sustainability and the preserve. “The new leadership that is coming on is much more integrated and holistic,” Mincey said. She said in the past there wasn’t enough manpower to do much more than usher in a new degree program. “Outside of that they just haven’t had the staff or the people to do much more,” she said.“ It feels sort of like now we’re really ramping up.”

A Brazilian student smokes a cigarette Wednesday afternoon at the PUC-SP campus. PUC-SP has religious roots but is also known for being host to demonstrations against the military regime, which fell in 1985.
Brazilian college students let loose despite society’s high expectations The Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo is probably one of the least Catholic universities you’ll find pretty much anywhere. If you walk on campus at the right time, the smell of marijuana and tobacco wafts over you. Graffiti covers every wall. The parties during IU’s Welcome Week don’t even begin to compare to PUCSP in terms of intensity. Nobody, including the professors, went to class on the first day. Instead, the street behind the university was filled to the brim with students. They drank, they hazed the first-years, they set off smoke bombs and they sang their school song many times over. It was similar to spirit events at IU but much less G-rated. But Brazilian college students can hardly be blamed for wanting to let loose every once in a while. A typical Brazilian undergraduate might take up to nine or 10 classes. Each class is held once a week, and class sessions are usually three or four hours long. On top of classes, many students here take internships during the school year rather than during the summer. There is also much less freedom to choose classes for the average Brazilian student. Once a Brazilian enters college, they usually cannot change their course of study like Americans can. Tuition for public universities in Brazil is free, and the public schools are by far the best. The catch is that to earn entry into one of these
The Wilson Sheehan Foundation donated the money that will be used to expand the initiative’s future research, which “seeks to reduce poverty in the United States,” according to the release.
Bloomington City Council member Chris Sturbaum used his opening remarks at the council’s meeting Wednesday night to discuss his ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. Sturbaum said he opted to donate when challenged, then promptly dumped a cup of ice water over his head in the council chambers to end his remarks. The city council met Wednesday night to hear new ordinance proposals. The city’s Americans with Disabilities Act Transition Plan was required to be updated. The act prohibits federal and state governments from discriminating against disabled citizens. The updated plan proposed fixing city facilities that did not meet the guidelines in a survey created by the City’s Council for Community Accessibility and Barbara McKinney, the City’s ADA coordinator and Bloomington Human Rights Commission
Director. IU students were hired to conduct the survey. The most necessary changes are to 177.93 miles of city sidewalk, said Vince Caristo, bicycle and pedestrian planner. Sidewalks were assessed on a block-by-block level and judged by standards established in the ADA, he said. The cost to repair the sidewalks are estimated to be more than $16 million, which totals $18 to $34 per liner foot of sidewalk. Additionally, sections of 21 Bloomington park facilities were also deemed inaccessible. Indiana requires cities to update their ADA Transition Plans to receive transportation funding. The plan also estimates to improve 146 curb ramps this year and 428 next year. Another ordinance read at Tuesday night’s hearing would exempt three historic districts from requiring residents to obtain a Certificate of Appropriateness when changing exterior paint color of a building located in that
district. State law requires the exception for paint color in a city’s ordinance. Residents in McDoel, Prospect Hill and and Garden Hill would be able to paint their homes whichever color they desire without seeking government permission. Tax abatements for a new downtown construction project were also proposed. Elmore Y Orrego, LLC, hopes to demolish a one-story building at its 304 W. Kirkwood Ave. property and build a four-story residential and commercial building project. The project, Cornerstone Headquarters, will be designed to target professional adults, coordinator Danise Alano-Martin said. According to the City Council legislative packet, founder D.G. Elmore is founder and CEO of travel agency technology support company Cornerstone Information Systems. It was founded in Bloomington in 1992. The project is estimated to cost $14.6 million and create 77 jobs.
Teachers request delay in accountability standards By Tori Fater vrfater@indiana.edu | @vrfater
Students walk to class Wednesday afternoon at the PUC-SP campus. Graffiti is very popular in São Paulo, and the PUC-SP building is no exception.
schools, each student must take exams at the end of high school, specific both to the university and to the field of study they hope to enter. Unlike the SATs or ACTs for Americans, doing poorly on these exams usually means not going to college that year. Students spend most of their high school careers preparing for these tests. Families with money often send their kids to private high schools, which give them a much greater chance of getting into college. Sound familiar? The social inequalities here in Brazil are similar in nature to those in the U.S. But because Brazil is still developing in many ways, every problem seems to be augmented. For example, Brazil is home to the largest population of black people outside of Africa, according to
Mary Katherine Wildeman is a junior in journalism and political science.
Bloomberg. Brazilians who identify as either “black” or “brown” constitute about half of the population. And yet only about six percent of college graduates are black, according to a 2013 study conducted by the Youth Observatory of Rio de Janeiro. These inequalities are reflections of ongoing economic disparities in the country. The “work hard, play hard” culture is very real here. Contrary to American stereotypes, Brazilian students are hard workers. It’s impossible to judge the PUC-SP students for walking to the nearest bar across the street after their classes let out most days. I’ve even made a habit of joining them. marwilde@indiana.edu
Teachers and schools start teaching to a new set of academic standards and a new standardized test this year, and some educators are asking for a year to adjust. Indiana withdrew from the national Common Core standards in March. New academic standards were approved by the State Board of Education at the end of April, according to the Indiana Department of Education website. The state is also rolling out a new version of the ISTEP in spring 2015, which teachers would prepare students for during the current school year. Some educators, like those in the Indiana State Teacher’s Association, think Indiana would benefit from collecting data from the new test and standards for one year while using different data for teacher evaluations. “Still do the tests, still collect the data, but give us some time to see how this is going to play this first year and in the decisions that we make,” ISTA President Teresa
Meredith said. “[The standards] are not hugely different, but they’re different enough that teachers have to familiarize themselves with the new standards and the timeline in which standards are being taught.” U.S. Department of Education Secretary Arne Duncan published a blog post Aug. 21, which was republished on the USDOE website, saying he wanted to allow states more flexibility as they transition to new academic standards. Duncan announced in the post that states will have the option of requesting a delay in tying test results to teacher evaluations. ISTA delivered a letter to Gov. Mike Pence on Aug. 26, asking him to submit a request for a delay, Meredith said. However, Pence released a letter to Duncan two months ago, shortly after the new standards were approved. In it, Pence stated he doesn’t want to pause accountability for Indiana schools and teachers. “Testing gives us an accurate picture of how our students are doing and what
help they need in the classroom,” he said. “Indiana will not go backwards when it comes to measuring performance in our schools on my watch.” Meredith said she thinks it would put some teachers’ fears to rest if they knew their first year of teaching the new standards was important, but not a dealbreaker. “I think it could be as simple as asking schools to submit a plan,” she said. “How do they plan to include data in their teacher evaluations in the next year while this statewide data is on pause?” Pence said he believes state policies such as the A to F grading system and teacher evaluations are necessary to ensure quality schools. “It is our full intent to plot a measured and thoughtful course as we transition to a new state test with new expected performance levels,” Pence said in the letter. “We are confident that our state can implement the more rigorous standards while also accounting for any temporary impact on testing scores in a way that does not unfairly affect students, teachers and schools.”

QUE SARAH SARAH
CARMEN SAYS
College is to religion as ...
Bullets and burgers
CARMEN RODRIGUEZ is a junior in journalism.
SARAH KISSEL is a sophomore in English.
Two more innocent citizens joined the ranks of victims of American gun violence Monday. Las Vegas News Now reported that a 9-year-old girl accidentally shot and killed her 39-year-old shooting instructor at the Bullets and Burgers gun range in White Hills, Ariz. When she pulled the trigger, the gun’s immense recoil overpowered her and sent the weapon up over her head, at which point Charles Vacca, the instructor standing over her, was fatally shot. Unlike the horrific incidents of mass gun violence that have dominated the media within recent years, both of these victims were mentally healthy. The shooting happened in a stable environment. It’s the uneventful nature of the accident that heightens Vacca’s death from tragic to terrifying. Even in a controlled setting with an expert present, an innocent man was killed, and a young girl was saddled with the unimaginable psychological trauma of her accident. If weapons are not safe in an expert’s hands, they cannot be safe at all. Footage on the local Channel 8 News website shows Vacca in military fatigues standing next to a little girl in pink shorts holding an Uzi, the same gun James Huberty used to kill 21 people inside a California McDonalds in 1984. Her instructor adjusts her grip, corrects her stance and demonstrates how to fire the weapon. The operator of Bullets and Burgers said there had never been any incident or injury in its 12 years of business. The range’s glib, alliterative title is nauseating in the wake of Vacca’s death. Bullets and burgers belong together about as much as little girls and machine guns. This casual attitude toward guns is evidence of Americans’ foolish domestication of weapons, and unless prudent action is taken, more will suffer. That 9-year-old child is a psychological victim of gun violence alongside innumerable other children who have accidentally administered fatal shots to adults and young friends alike. In September 2013, the New York Times reported that the deaths of children from gun accidents are usually classified as homicides or suicides. They identified nearly twice as many accidental killings as were tallied in the federal data for four of the five states they examined. I am exhausted, discouraged and enraged by the repetitive nature of this sentiment, but I feel compelled to ask again: how much death is too much death? How many shootings, both intentional acts of murder and heartbreaking accidents, are enough to demand lasting change? Gun violence harms every member of a society whose devotion to unchecked freedom has distorted its conceptions of safety and normalcy. We cannot afford to ignore the horrific consequences any longer. We couldn’t afford to in July 1984, April 1999, April 2007, November 2009, July 2012, December 2012 or September 2013, and we absolutely cannot now. sbkissel@indiana.edu

Let my people tweet WE SAY: Restricting the Internet is not OK From an infantile age, those of us born in the United States are taught that we have mastered democracy and that we are, if not entirely, mostly free. We’re taught that we, as a nation, are the freest in the world. We can own guns, we have freedom of the press and we can believe in whatever religion we choose. This isn’t exactly the case in Illinois, where university officials have began limiting student access to the Internet and social media platforms. Students at Northern Illinois University received a monumental shock when they tried to access the school Wi-Fi earlier this month. A student stumbled across the university’s acceptable use policy when he tried to look up a religious group on Wikipedia. NIU’s new policy restricts pornography, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Foursquare and other social media sites. The policy also bans “using resources for political activities,” including organizing or participating in “any political meeting, rally, demonstration, soliciting contributions or votes, distributing
material, surveying or polling ... or completing political surveys.” We all come to college with a central purpose in mind: to gain knowledge and experiences necessary to succeed in a competitiondriven world. College is supposed to be a time when you encounter and learn about opinions, lifestyles and choices that oftentimes conflict with your own. In the eyes of the Editorial Board, unless it falls outside the boundaries of the law, universities are supposed to encourage students to stray from their comfort zone. It is impossible, in our opinion, to truly grow as a person in college without receiving the experience in full. Though Facebook may not be the key to unlocking the secret of an amazing college experience, it’s definitely a part of the freedom and autonomy that are so important to a college atmosphere. Besides violating their rights as students, the Northern Illinois University administration is violating their rights as American citizens. The Constitution of the United States guarantees citizens the right
to political expression, the right to free speech and the right to peacefully assemble, among others. By enforcing a policy that essentially strips students of their right to political expression, NIU is obstructing their basic human rights. Overseas, in countries such as Syria, Egypt or Russia, the U.S. makes a point to oppose instances of Internet censorship. Americans proudly link arms and sing “America the Beautiful” while yelling about how proud we are to have the freedoms we have. Yet, when Internet censorship occurs on our very shores by a public university, no one is standing up to oppose it. Some may argue that the school has a right to regulate what is accessed via its own Wi-Fi network. However, Facebook or CNN don’t pose an immediate threat to the students of NIU. Students aren’t rioting outside the administrative offices. Instead, Northern Illinois University is overreaching in its attempts to control student conduct and thought. The students would be protesting that, if protesting weren’t banned.

Open the gates, free the trees Let’s talk trees. More specifically, let’s talk about our very own trees in the Arboretum and why we’re being withheld the pleasure of walking among them to and from class. Seriously though, my truthful first impression of the Alcatraz-like fencing system barricading the perimeter was that there must be some sort of deadly specimen, like masses of tsetse flies. Too soon? Turns out the annexation of the Arboretum isn’t any quarantine-related situation, shockingly enough, but actually just a construction project. More specifically, the Uni-
versity has closed the Route 66 of campus pathways to improve the lighting and replace the sidewalks. Last spring, I was the last person I knew to load up the wagon and head for the homestead. That was the first week of May. So, technically there were about three-and-a-half months of student-less existence for them to take care of whatever campus improvements they saw fit to, you know, improve. I understand that the laundry list of summer project the University addresses each year must be miles long. However, I find it very hard to believe there couldn’t have been a little better pri-
oritization to ensure students don’t have to tack on an extra 10 minutes to their walk to and from class. Obviously the only thing consistent in life is change, and I think nine times out of 10 IU is positively contributing to this statement. Exempting the movement to remove the D bus, but that’s a different column for a different day. However, when the University schedules a project that blatantly and negatively interferes with the daily routines of its students, any positivity related to the project instantly goes out the window. Not to mention the fact that this particular construc-

tion project is going to continue through November, according to the University’s Twitter account, @IUBloomington. I’m all for upgrading the campus to ensure it remains fantastic for generations to come. However, I can’t get on board with this latest improvement initiative, especially if it denies me and my fellow Hoosiers the right to the most scenic and beautiful fall stroll on campus. cnmclewa@indiana.edu

No other environment is as conducive to self-exploration and experimentation as college. However, there is a stigma surrounding religion on college campuses. While students that stray away from institutionalized faith-based organizations are praised, there is a stigma on campuses across the nation that implies students who subscribe to a faith are either ignorant, extremists or prudes. Most students, and professors, to a certain extent, believe that in a place where intellect reigns supreme, the notion of believing in an intangible, abstract higher power is silly at best and destructive to society at worst. Wherever students finds themselves in their spiritual journey, college does not mean they have to walk away from their faith, whatever the flavor may be. The individual is the only person that is capable of understanding the intricacies of his or her personal beliefs and ultimately, the foundation of his or her identity. Society has created labels laden with stereotypes that do a disservice to the variety of interpretations present within a population that claims a particular faith. While the forces of the status quo are strong, no majority opinion, congregation or religious leader can define personal faith. The self defines faith, and it is only by sticking beside these beliefs that one can let him or herself be known and exchange ideas in the collegiate marketplace. In the same token, people have the right to change their minds. Because college is a prime environment for intellectual innovation, students will hear ideas that will challenge their beliefs. The confidence and surety in one’s beliefs creates a willingness to listen to opposing ideas. In a respectful discussion, an individual can either walk away with a greater understanding of an opposing opinion or a new idea to further explore. Should an idea grow to influence personal faith, the person should have a right to change his or her mind without judgment. It is wiser to lean into the discomfort of change rather than live in the rigidity of a lie. No other environment is as conducive to self-exploration and experimentation as college. The flow of ideas and people make every day an opportunity to defend your position and learn from others in the process. By standing beside one’s principles while maintaining an openmindedness to change, an individual is showing the larger populace that there is more to belief than blind faith. More to faith than close-mindedness and fear. More to faith than the nasty extremism of rigidity. More to faith than being named the party pooper. College is a time for exploration, but it does not have to necessarily result in redefinition. caheredi@indiana.edu

North end zone scoring ribbon ready to roll Included in the initiatives designed to improve IU gameday football experience for fans at Memorial Stadium is a ribbon board in the north end zone to provide game information.
Freshmen find their places By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94
The history of IU men’s soccer is littered with the number one. IU has finished as the No. 1 team in the country eight times. IU has also won 12 Big Ten tournament titles and has been crowned regular season champions 14 times since the Big Ten began playing soccer in 1991. But this season, IU is unranked nationally and picked to finish fifth in the Big Ten. But IU Coach Todd Yeagley said IU is “one.” “I think a big thing for us is ‘one,’” Yeagley said. “I think this group, everyone is on the same page and fighting for one another, and I think that component can really take this team somewhere.” From an outsider’s perspective, one thing preventing IU from meshing into one unit is the addition of 13 new players coming from high schools across the country or other colleges. Senior Patrick Doody thinks the newcomers are fitting in just fine. “New guys looked awesome, all of them,” Doody said. “The transfers and all the freshmen were really sharp, came in fit, and the whole team was really impressed with them.” In the two preseason games leading up to the season opener, Yeagley has used a multitude of freshmen in a variety of spots. Freshman central defender Grant Lilliard started both preseason games thanks, in part, to his towering stature on the field.
The ribbon board is 200 feet long and three feet wide. The board was still being worked on this week but is said to be “fully operational” by IU Associate Athletic Director Jeremy Gray on Twitter.
Cross country earns highest preseason rank From IDS Reports

Freshman Jay McIntosh takes a shot during the game against Xavier on Aug. 19. IU Coach Todd Yeagley said he has been pleased with McIntosh’s ability to score.
Lilliard stands at 6-foot-4, making him the tallest player to wear the cream and crimson since goalkeeper Luis Soffner in 2012. “He’s the piece that we need,” Yeagley said. “He brings size, and we’re not a huge team.” Another freshman who has seen significant playing time in the preseason is Jay McIntosh at forward. McIntosh scored 80 goals in three varsity seasons at Loy Norrix High School in Kalamazoo, Mich. That goal-scoring ability is something Yeagley said will keep McInthosh in an open competition in terms of goal scoring. Doody said he believes the team concept of “one” also applies to where the Hoosier goals will be coming from. “I think it’s going to be across the whole board,” Doody said. “I think for us to be successful, everyone’s going
to have to step up in that part of the field.” Those expected to be present on the committee include junior Femi Hollinger-Janzen and sophomore Tanner Thompson. Hollinger-Janzen was tied for the team lead in goals for the Hoosiers last season with five, while Yeagley said he believes Thompson is poised for a breakout season. Not that either of them care. They just want to win together. “I’m not really worried about the stat sheet,” Thompson said. “I’m more focused on the wins. Just whatever is going to help the team more.” This strategy of scoring by committee is applicable to the team culture and leadership, as well. “I don’t think we have a dominant captain,” Yeagley said. “We’ll make decisions on who the captains will be going forward. But right now,

when the group’s right and it’s a committee, you don’t need a label.” Yeagley believes the open competition the team has present up top is present at every position on the field, something that his team was lacking last season. “We’ve had some returning players who didn’t quite have the guy who was biting at their heels as much as we needed for every position,” Yeagley said. “I think for this year we have that for about every spot.” This competition at every practice for playing time breeds a competitive culture that Yeagley said he believes will translate to on-field success. “I think the way that they competed and they have been competing, they can become close to one another,” Yeagley said. “But when they’re out there, they want to win every activity.”
The IU men’s cross country team will enter the 2014 season ranked in the top 10 of three major national polls. The team came in at No. 6 in the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association National Coaches Poll and No. 7 in both FloTrack and LetsRun.com. The No. 6 ranking is the highest in program history. “The ranking is significant as it shows we are among the best in the country, but we will need to prove it on the course,” Coach Ron Helmer said. Last year, the Hoosiers placed eighth at the NCAA Championships after winning the program’s first Big Ten title since 1980. The team has finished in the top 10 in the country during three of the last four seasons. IU will return all five scor-
ers from last year’s NCAAs. Then-junior Evan Esselink led the team with a 45thplace finish, followed by teammates Jason Crist, Carl Smith, Matt Schwarter and JR Ricker. Crist and then-junior Rorey Hunter were named First Team All-Big Ten in 2013. Hunter was the 1,500-meter outdoor champion on the track last spring. Smith and Schwartzer earned Second Team All-Big Ten honors at the end of the season. “This group made some history last year coming out of the shadows of some guys who graduated,” Helmer said. The Hoosiers are host to the Indiana Open at the IU Championship Cross Country Course on Sept. 6 to open their season. Competition begins at 9:20 a.m. Grace Palmieri

of my goals that I’d like to hit this year.” Coleman earned the No. 1 running back spot last season as a sophomore. He won the starting job from his close friend and mentor Stephen Houston, from whom he still gets advice. The 6-foot-1-inch, 210 pound Tinley Park, Ill., native rushed for 958 yards and 12 touchdowns in nine games last year. He added 193 receiving yards and returned six kicks for 124 more. Coleman’s effort placed him on this year’s Doak Walker Award Watch List, an annual award presented to the nation’s best running back. But missing the 1,000yard mark still bothered him. He tried to come back for the Purdue game three weeks after his injury but decided it was best not to risk further injury, so he sat out. Instead, he prayed for his health and focused on returning stronger. He’s been earning praise from the IU strength trainers and coaching staff alike for coming back into camp in some of the best physical shape they’ve seen him in. “He’s somebody who wants to separate himself by his work ethic and what he brings to the table,” running backs coach Deland McCullough said of Coleman.

Then-sophomore Tevin Coleman breaks a tackle during IU’s game against Navy on Sept. 7, 2013, at Memorial Stadium. Coleman finished with one touchdown in IU’s 41-35 loss to Navy.
“To this point, he’s done it.” McCullough said he has a friendship with Coleman that goes beyond the typical player-coach working relationship. At practice, the two routinely go back and forth making fun of one another, downplaying the other’s talent. The 41-year-old Mc-
Cullough played professionally in the NFL and Canada from 1996-99. He likes to explain to Coleman that if he were eligible to be on the roster, he’d demote Coleman to second string. “He does that a lot,” Coleman said. “They just mess with me and try to get me ready. They know that I’m going to get it this year.”

navigating the stadium’s seating, there will be a special seating and parking section, she said. Guests will register for this area of the parking lot in advance and will then be driven to the stadium in golf carts. “We will probably be putting them on the field under a tent,” she said. Students planning to graduate in spring 2015 were not individually notified by the University as of Wednesday evening. Barnett said the only notification of the change she is aware of is the press release. There are risks involved in moving commencement outdoors, including weather. The commencement committee is in the process of developing a plan in case of rain, Piurek said. To do this, Piurek said they are looking to peer institutions and attempting
When Coleman arrived in Bloomington as a freshman, he wasn’t quite used to using his physicality. In high school, Coleman moved around on the field and was a more speed-based back. Once he began working with IU’s coaches, Coleman began to uncover his power. When Coleman can’t get around a defender, he to adopt some of their best practices. Barnett said the combination of two ceremony times into one will also lower the risk of encountering rain. Memorial Stadium has a capacity of 52,000, compared to Assembly Hall, which has a capacity of 17,000 seats. Last year’s two commencement ceremonies combined had a total of 34,000 guests, Piurek said. Undergraduate commencement will take place at 10 a.m. May 9. Graduate student commencement ceremonies will take place at 3 p.m. May 8 at Mellencamp Pavilion. Piurek said the commencement committee is always looking to enhance the experience of commencement. “This is a big day in the lives of our students, their families and their loved ones, so we want to continue to make it a fun and memorable time for everyone who attends,” he said.
improvises and tries to run through them. “That makes him very effective,” McCullough said. “He’s not afraid of contact and using strength and speed as a weapon.” The result has been Coleman becoming one of the most powerful backs in the Big Ten. When asked by the Big Ten Network about the
conference’s best running backs, Nebraska’s Ameer Abdulla and Wisconsin’s Melvin Gordon both picked Coleman to join them as the Big Ten’s elite. His teammates agree. “He’s a blazer, man,” senior running back D’Angelo Roberts said. “The cats got a 10.6 (second) 100-meter dash time. You see him one minute, then the next minute you don’t. “He’s a good guy. A hard worker in the weight room. A 400-pound bencher. Can’t go wrong with him.” Coleman has made it clear. He wants to be IU’s first 1,000-yard rusher since Levron Williams in 2001. His shortcomings from last year have only motivated him more. He said he believes in momentum and wants to start the season Saturday against Indiana State with a strong performance. Coleman said he’ll be playing with extra inspiration this weekend. Former IU running back Anthony Thompson (1986-89) will be recognized during the pregame festivities, and Coleman wants to impress him. Thompson is already a member of the 1,000-yard club. He did it three times in his four-year career as a Hoosier. Coleman wants to join him. “The thing is, he wants to be great,” McCullough said. “He wants to get it done. He has his goals, and he’s going to work hard for them.”

“THE SKELETON TWINS”
Sept. 19 Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Jane Fonda and Adam Driver on screen together. That’s really all that should be necessary to cause you to sprint, not run, to the darkly-premised comedy about a family coming together after the death of their father and husband.
“THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU”
“A WALK AMONG THE TOMBSTONES”
“DUMB AND DUMBER TO”
Sept. 12 “Saturday Night Live” co-stars Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig team up in this dramedy about a pair of twins who reconnect after a decade of not speaking. Already getting rave advance reviews, it’s going to be a blast to see these two tackle roles together outside of the sketch comedy norm.
“INTERSTELLAR”
Sept. 19 Based on the Lawrence Block novel of the same title, “A Walk Among the Tombstones” is the story of a private investigator looking into the kidnapping and murder of a criminal’s wife. This movie’s important because its bone-chilling trailer reveals it might finally be a change of pace from the Liam Neeson garbage of late.
“FURY”
Nov. 14 It’s definitely going to be strange to see the man we’ve come to know and love in recent years as Will McAvoy (Jeff Daniels) of “The Newsroom” return to the truly…well, dumb, ways of Harry Dunne of “Dumb and Dumber.” It’s also exciting to see this franchise make a return after so many years.
“GONE GIRL”
“THE JUDGE”
Dec. 17 Love it or hate it, it’s finally coming to an end. This holiday season, Peter Jackson will release his final installment of “The Hobbit” trilogy, once again starring Martin Freeman at the helm. If for no other reason, go to see Ian McKellan once more rock the all-white (long after Labor Day) as Gandalf.
“THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES”
Oct. 10 A lawyer, played by Robert Downey, Jr., returns to his hometown because his father (Robert Duvall), a judge in the town, is a murder suspect. Along with these two, the film stars Vera Farmiga and Billy Bob Thornon. Oh, and Leighton Meester. From “Gossip Girl.” This is going to be interesting to say the least.
Nov. 21 This series picks up taking off the “Harry Potter” model of splitting the final installment into two parts to get as much money out of the hands of unknowing young audiences. “The Hunger Games” returns to the screen – this time, with Panem teetering on the edge of rebellion. Expect J-Law to kill it...as always.
“THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY – PART 1”
Oct. 3 One of the most anticipated films of the year, “Gone Girl,” based off the Gillian Flynn novel that sold millions of copies — you know, the one you haven’t read but seemingly every single person you’ve ever met is obsessed with — comes out this October. It’s directed by David Fincher (“The Social Network,”“House of Cards”) and starring Ben Affleck and Neil Patrick Harris among others. This is one you really shouldn’t miss.
FALL IN LOVE WITH CINEMA By Ike Hajinazarian ihajinaz@indiana.edu | @_IkeHaji
Fall at last. Fall is the season studios release the best and brightest movies – the ones that’ll rack up at the awards ceremonies. So get out your planner, and start writing in these dates.
Oct. 17 This is a surefire hit. High-profile World War II movies are almost always great, and Brad Pitt is a living legend. I’m not too worried. “Fury” is going to be, at the very least, a very solid film and definitely worth the price of admission. Paired with its fall release date, “Fury” might be eyeing some shiny trophies.
Nov. 7 Christopher Nolan. Matthew McConaughey. Outer space. All coming together at once. Matthew is in the prime of his McConaissance (I’m not smart enough to have come up with that word myself) in a space-travelling film directed by the man behind so many of my favorites, such as “Inception” and “The Dark Knight.” Also, we get the added bonus of Anne Hathaway as a co-star. Nov. 7 can’t come soon enough.

‘If I Stay’ should probably pack its bags and go ‘If I Stay’ D Let’s start with a disclaimer: I have not read the book “If I Stay.” Now for the film: it was awful. “If I Stay” stars Chloë Grace Moretz as Mia Hall, a quiet high school girl. Mia’s life is full of music. Her dad was in a band. Her mom was a professional groupie. Their love of rock is firmly instilled in Mia’s little brother, Teddy. Even her boyfriend, Adam, is a rock star whose band is growing in popularity and taking over the Portland music scene. But the rocker gene skipped Mia. She developed a love of classical music and is, in fact, a talented cellist. Then a car crash thrusts Mia into an out-of-body experience. And as she slowly loses everything she holds close, Mia must make the decision to stay or go. It’s an interesting story concept but is poorly adapted for the big screen. The majority of the film is shown through flashbacks. Every few minutes the audience is tossed back in time and then sloppily thrown back into the present in a way that leaves us confused. The audience loses a lot of the importance of what’s happening in the present. It takes away from the intensity and drama of the situation. A majority of the flashbacks are all about Adam. We become lost in Mia’s romance with Adam. The film becomes more and more about their relationship and less about the tragedy occurring while her body is in a coma. Characterizations were

poor. Mia was yet another weak female character who constantly doubted and conformed herself to meet her boyfriend’s ideals. Ultimately, even her final decision came down to what he wanted. Adam, played by Jamie Blackley, was a stereotypical tall, dark and handsome guy with a troubled past. He was poetic, mysterious, whiny and tragically shallow and boring. The best character was the grandpa, and he only had six lines. The acting was not impressive. Moretz had her moments, but overall her performance wasn’t selling the role of a girl losing her family and possibly her own life. There was an overwhelming hipster vibe to the production. Lots of scenic snowy, rainy landscapes, flashes of pastels and a tacky budding romance montage with handheld camera work complete with a working gag reflex. All in all, “If I Stay” was basically “Twilight” but with music instead of vampires. Lexia Banks

Breaking big Weekend recaps the big takeaways from Monday’s Emmys Seth was just so-so NBC is really trying hard to make us love Seth Meyers, giving him “Late Night” and now the host position at the Emmys. However, he’s just not who NBC wants him to be. He’s not edgy, sharp or insightful enough to be a comedy superpower like Jimmy Fallon. His Emmy-hosting experience felt similar to his talk show. Funny enough to pass, but kind of tired-feeling. Save for a few smart cracks here and there, Meyers was definitely not one of the shining stars of the evening. Mackin’ with the stars Earlier this week, we were teased with an Emmy promo featuring nominees — now deserving winners — Bryan Cranston, Aaron Paul and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. The video was an absolutely hilarious parody of “Pawn Stars” with pokes and jabs at the

Emmys and the actors’ careers alike. During the awards ceremony, we got to see Cranston (a “Seinfeld” guest star) and Louis-Dreyfus back in action together. And I really mean “action.” As Louis-Dreyfus went up to receive her award for Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, Cranston hopped up out of his seat and made out with her. A true celebrity dream couple and one of the funniest moments of the evening. A beautiful tribute One of the most touching moments of the awards ceremony was when Billy Crystal gave a speech in memoriam of the late Robin Williams, a dear friend of his and a champion of the movie and television industries, whose suicide hit hard just a few weeks ago. In his speech, he described Williams as a star in the cosmos, lighting up the world from above.
Winning the biggies Taking home the big awards this year were “Modern Family” for the comedy category and “Breaking Bad” in the drama column. “Modern Family” was definitely an incredibly safe choice with shows such as “Veep” and “Orange is the New Black” facing it as competition, but alas, the popular ABC show went on to win its fifth consecutive Outstanding Comedy Series Emmy. There’s no debating that “Breaking Bad” deserved its big Emmy this year, though. Its final season was so good that it not only made for the best of the series, it also raised the bar for the entire television medium. It’s a season (and a series) for the history books. Sure, “True Detective” was absolutely wonderful, and it will have its time in the sun, but as for this year, let’s let “Breaking Bad” reign as the king it deserves to be. Ike Hajinazarian

NOT A MISSION TRIP
Columnist prepares for semester in Rwanda
Playing with art’s dimensions By Alison Graham akgraham@indiana.edu @AlisonGraham218
Cardinals, peonies and tulip trees form the center of the Grunwald Gallery of Art’s latest two exhibitions opening Friday. “Midwest Matrix: Continuum” explores the Midwest tradition of print-making and will display printmaking work from teachers and mentors who specialize in the medium. Alongside these professionals, their former students who have gone on to have careers of their own will display their work to create a full exhibit on printmaking. “It seems to be that printmakers have created a closeknit community,” said Marla Roddy, public relations director of the Grunwald Gallery. “Other mediums don’t have that. They’ve created a print-making culture.” This culture is personified in the documentary serving as the theme of the exhibit, also titled “Midwest Matrix.” The documentary was created by Susan Goldman, director of Lily Press in Rockville and former professor of printmaking and master printer for Navigation Press at George Mason University. Goldman interviewed post-World War II printmakers who traveled to the Midwest to initiate their print-making programs and created a tradition of excellence, according to the Grunwald Gallery of Art. Although the documentary will not be screened at the Grunwald, the IU Cinema is showing the film Sept. 21 as part of the “Midwest Matrix: Continuum” sym-
posium, which runs Sept. 19-21. Goldman will be present at the screening and will participate in a discussion following the film, which begins at 3 p.m. The IU Art Museum is also participating in the symposium with gallery talks Sept. 21 and Nov. 2 from 2 to 2:30 p.m. Two curators will discuss works from the museum made by influential Midwest printmakers Sept. 21. In November, the museum will present a discussion on artist Utamaro’s woodblock prints depicting various women. Also during the symposium, the Central Stores Arts Annex will open its printmaking studio to guests as an open house Sept. 20 and will be host to workshops from 10 a.m. to noon and again from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. The two exhibits at the Grunwald serve as a continuation of the symposium and feature more than 20 artists, many who are also in the documentary. The professionals shown in the documentary nominated three of their former students who have gone on to be professional printmakers for the show at Grunwald. One of the students selected, Dennis McNett, is creating a large installation between the two main galleries, which will showcase his own artistic style and include symbols from Indiana. “Wolfbat Offerings: Blooming Grove and the Luck of the Cardinal” focuses on the mythological tradition of the cardinal, which means good luck in many different mythologies,
When I told friends and family that I would be traveling to Rwanda for an entire semester, I got two typical responses. One: “Oh, are you going on a mission trip?” Two: “Oh my God, don’t die!” Even the woman who checked my bag said, “Rwanda? That’s different.” First of all, although many African countries face poverty, disease and underdevelopment, there’s a fine line between acknowledging economic, social and political problems in Africa and looking at the positive aspects and the humanity. At first, it bothered me quite a bit that people acted as if choosing to go to Rwanda over a more glamorous location was a great personal sacrifice on my part. A volunteer trip. A mission trip of sorts. I never knew how to explain to people why I am going because I didn’t think I had to. To me, it was obvious. When else was I going to get a chance to live in Africa for three and a half months? When would I get to learn about a significant historical event — the 1994 genocide — from the people who lived it? When would I get to visit a Ugandan refugee camp or
live with a homestay family from a completely different culture? Maybe I should have realized that this isn’t everyone’s idea of a dream trip. And that’s okay. I just wished people could look at Rwanda and all African countries as real places. Not charity cases. The charity cases of Africa the media overwhelms us with are, I think, where the “don’t die” sentiment comes from. All in all, it’s a legitimate concern for anyone going to a foreign country, where customs are different and Americans often stand out as targets. But it’s still a little disconcerting when people ask, “Aren’t you afraid of dying?” Unfortunately, we tend to think of this very large, diverse continent as a singular being. That is a dangerous perspective. It dehumanizes people in Africa and makes us ignorant of a beautiful array of cultures. Rwanda will be different from America. No doubt. But Africa is more than just a place people go to on mission trips.

he said. McNett is a printmaker but expanded the medium to include sculpture and other three-dimensional mediums. His large cardinal sculptures are covered in patterns that McNett created using woodcuts. “This exhibit takes away the two-dimensional tradition of printmaking and moves it to sculpture,” he said. “It’s still a viable medium.” Although print-making usually lends itself to a twodimensional space, McNett takes it further and uses it to enhance his sculptures. “He shows how far you can push the medium,” Roddy said. “What’s great about this exhibit is the vari-
ety of techniques — abstract work, figurative work.” Those techniques are what forms much of the Midwest tradition and allows previous mentors to pass down their information and techniques to their students, which is evident in the exhibit, Roddy said. “There are a lot of renowned print-making schools in the Midwest, including IU,” Roddy said. “IU is known for its print-making program.” The exhibits at the Grunwald open Friday and will remain on exhibit until Oct. 1. McNett is scheduled to give a gallery talk on his installation at 5:30 p.m. Friday, and an opening reception will follow at 6 p.m.

Cardinal Stage Company opens historical musical From IDS reports
The Cardinal Stage Company will debut its production of the musical “1776” Sept. 4 at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater. Labeled as “America’s Favorite Musical” by the company’s website, performances of “1776” will continue until Sep. 13. Tickets can be purchased online at the company’s website, cardinalstage.org. They can also be purchased in person at the company’s main location at 900 S. Walnut St. “1776” is a winner of five Tony Awards in 1969, including Best Musical and Best Book. The plot focuses on the 2nd Continental Congress and the passionate debates that occurred about whether the American colonies should declare Independence from King George III and Great Britain. Randy White, artistic director for the Cardinal Stage Company, said he is thrilled to open the season with this production. “1776” was the first play he directed when he came to the United States from Canada. “We wanted to open the season with a big musical, haven’t done that in a while,” White said. “We wanted people to celebrate the idea

of who we are as Americans and how it all first started.” The production features a variety of regular actors. These include Mark Goetzinger as Ben Franklin, Rob Johansen as John Dickinson and Mike Price as John Adams. There will also be newcomers such as Bloomington High School Choral Director Sarah Miller as Abigail Adams. “‘1776’ is a musical comedy that has a surprising funny story from something so dry, even though you know where it’s going to end up,” White said. “It is remarkably compelling with the debates and interpersonal stuff that helps humanizes characters.” Anthony Broderick

Combining cultural technique Kana Handel, a painter and illustrator, will exhibit at Pearl and Mable’s grand opening on Friday. Pearl and Mable is a new gallery located on Kirkwood Avenue. Erin Marshall, co-owner of the gallery, said Handel’s art is heavily influenced by her Japanese roots. “Her work is beautiful,” Marshall said. “She is from Tokyo.” Handel moved to the United States in 1992, according to her website. She currently lives in Gainesville, Fla., and Marshall said the artist travels around the United States to spread her work. Marshall said her coowner, Alex Martin, first found Handel at the Broad Ripple Art Fair in Indianapolis. “He was impressed with her work,” she said. Intrigued, Marshall said Martin started up a conversation with the artist, which led to Handel’s upcoming exhibit. It will feature a variety of paintings, all influenced from traditional Japanese art techniques, she said. Kana Handel works in a variety of mixed media, ranging from milk to ink, according to her website. Marshall describes Handel’s style as child-like, enchanting and full of bold color. According to her website, Handel’s technique combines acrylic gouache, an opaque paint similar to watercolor and the traditional Japanese art form sumi-e or

“ink painting.” The sumi ink is ground and painted onto washi paper. The artist has a history in illustrating children’s books, Marshall said. “I have been illustrating books and magazines for over 23 years and have worked for numerous Japanese publishing firms that specialize in children’s issues, including Gakken and Shogakukan,” Handel said on her website. From now through September, Handel will be the only artist whose work will be exhibited at Pearl and Mable. “We focus on having a single artist at a time,” Marshall said. Marshall said the gallery generally aims to exhibit work that is fun, provocative and hopefully unlike anything else in Bloomington. Handel’s work is fun, Marshall said. Children are a common subject in her work and tend to be painted in rougher, more textured brush strokes. Pearl and Mable will be open in cooperation with the Fourth Street Art Festival hours this weekend from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. Handel will also participate in the festival. “She’s going to have a lot of work in town this weekend,” Marshall said.
