Students for Life urges University to halt tissue research of aborted babies

By Emily Miles elmiles@iu.edu | @EmilyLenetta

IU sophomore and neuroscience major Emily Eherenman balanced a laptop in her palm at the head of the Oak Room and wrote names and emails of a few University faculty and trustees on a whiteboard.

Before all of her fellow members of Students for Life at IU arrived, she sat down and showed her friend, Kylie Frederick, photos of another girl’s new baby. They beamed and spoke about how adorable the child was. A few final students took their seats.

“Hello,” Eherenman wrote on the board. “My name is [blank] and I am an IU [blank]. I am contacting you to address the recent purchase of aborted baby brains ...”

Students for Life members composed the emails, focusing on discouraging Alzheimer’s research performed on aborted fetal tissue, Tuesday evening at the Indiana Memorial Union.

To the knowledge of IU Vice President for Research Fred Cate, faculty has engaged in one instance of research using brain tissue directly from an abortion. The

State educators prepare for transition

By Katelyn Haas haask@indiana.edu | @khaas96

It was not a good year for incumbent candidates.

On Oct. 24, Glenda Ritz stood in front of a small crowd at Hopscotch Coffee to campaign for her reelection for state superintendent of public instruction.

She said she felt the same strong energy she felt in 2012 when she originally ran for state superintendent.

“The one thing I want people to know is you voted for me in 2012, and I’ve been doing my job.” Ritz said to the crowd.

However, on Nov. 8, Ritz stood in front of the Indiana Democratic Party’s election night event in Indianapolis and accepted her defeat to Republican candidate Jennifer McCormick. McCormick defeated Ritz with 52.97 percent of the vote.

Ritz encouraged the state to continue to be a loud voice for public education in the statehouse.

McCormick started in the classroom as a special education teacher and later on a language arts teacher. She became principal of Yorktown Elementary School in 2004. In 2007, she served as the assistant superintendent of Yorktown Community Schools until she moved to superintendent in 2010.

As the Yorktown Community Schools superintendent accepted her win, she commended Ritz for her service and wished her well.

n the days after the resignation of former IU football coach Kevin Wilson, some players described the program’s culture of fear when it came to handling injuries.

They were pressured to play through injjuries, i such as blood clots and bulging discs. Others said their requests for treatment were not only ignored but met with jabs such as, “Stop being a pussy.” Those who suffered injuries became damaged goods, the players agreed.

These players knew what they were getting into when they signed up to play Division I football, but they didn’t sign up for abuse. IU Athletics did not respond to multiple requests for comment on this story.

In the fall of 2012, Bernard Taylor woke up from a surgery in Carmel, Indiana, an hour away from campus. He was alone.

The nurse asked who was coming to pick him up. He said he didn’t know. She tried to get in touch with his trainers. No response.

“I know I can only speak for myself, however, I will say that everything Coach Wilson did was in an effort to bring out the best in his players.

Although he was tough on us, he was always in our corner. I would not be where I am today without Coach Wilson pushing me. He is an incredible coach.”

Provost Lauren Robel speaks at the Bloomington Faculty Council meeting Tuesday afternoon in President’s Hall. The council discussed a variety of topics and issues around the IU campus.

BFC delays diversity decision

By Bailey Cline baicline@iu.edu | @baicline

The Bloomington Faculty Council delayed a decision to update its diversity policy and potentially make IU a sanctuary campus Tuesday afternoon.

These efforts will be revisited in January.

“We were hoping if the diversity statement passed we could amend that to protect students that are under attack,” said Maisha Wester, associate professor in the Department of American Studies and African American and Diaspora Studies.

After Donald Trump’s election to the presidency, undocumented students and those registered under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy, which provides temporary legal status to previously undocumented people, have become concerned about deportation.

Some people have rallied for IU to become a sanctuary campus, which means the University would pledge to protect students from de-

portation while on campus.

Members and supporters of the UndocuHoosier Alliance, which advocates for undocumented students on campus, have rallied multiple times.

Last week they conducted a silent demonstration at the Board of Trustees’ meeting to make IU a sanctuary campus.

At the end of discussion of the diversity statement, Wester mentioned a possible amendment to the diversity policy that would pledge IU’s commitment not to assist law enforcement with deportation efforts.

A more in-depth resolution on the issue might be presented in the future, Wester said.

Wester said she mostly wants to get some sort of commitment from the University on the record about supporting undocumented students before Trump assumes the presidency in January.

She said she worried the council may deliberate on the issue beyond Jan. 20,

when Trump will be sworn in.

“Come inauguration, it’s about to get real,” Wester said.

Students attended the meeting with hopes of speaking to the council about making IU a sanctuary campus, but they were not allowed to speak during the meeting due to the council’s bylaws.

Provost Lauren Robel mentioned the agenda Tuesday afternoon was too full to include more topics but offered to speak with leaders of the students about how to get onto the agenda for the next BFC meeting.

Earlier in the meeting, the council had discussed an update to the University’s diversity policy that mandated the community welcome all types of people.

This nondiscrimination policy extends to everyone, regardless of factors such as citizenship, ethnicity, religion, national origin or ancestry.

The policy also states one of IU’s goals as an institu-

tion is to teach students how to include who experience discrimination and underrepresentation and to learn how to respect one another’s differences.

Mathematics professor Elizabeth Housworth proposed making more amendments to the diversity policy during the meeting to ban discrimination against people based on their criminal record, family responsibilities or points of view.

Micol Seigel, associate professor of American studies, said during the meeting she researches the criminal justice system, and she urged councilors to reconsider their biases toward convicted criminals, especially because research she presented at the meeting points to bias in the system against racial minorities.

“Our current criminal justice system is grossly unjust,” Seigel said. “Our current incarceration is not about crime. It’s about politics.”

Kelley ranks 2nd among public institutions in new list From IDS reports

The Kelley School of Business was ranked second among public institutions and seventh overall in the nation by Poets & Quants, an online publication for business education news, according to a Dec. 5 press release from IU-Bloomington.

In its new ranking of undergraduate degree pro-

grams, Poets & Quants used a comprehensive review of statistics equally weighted in three categories: admissions standards, responses to a survey of 2014 graduates and employment data.

The business school ranked first among public institutions in the alumni survey and fourth among public institutions in terms of employment success, according to the release.

“Our students know they have to work hard, but they understand the rewards of that when they set out on their internships or careers and are able to make an impact right away,” Idalene Kesner, dean of the Kelley School, said in the release.

The profile of the business school on Poets & Quants said alumni from 2014 were more satisfied than almost every other

business school ranked by Poets & Quants, according to the release. Alumni gave A grades to 11 out of 12 questions in the survey.

“We want to give the best possible experience to our students while providing a rigorous, relevant and personalized education, and these rankings reflect that,” Kesner said in the release.

New ‘Harry Potter’ films help IU club

By Lydia Gerike lgerike@umail.iu.edu | @lydi_yeah

Although they didn’t cast spells or brew potions, students of the Harry Potter Society found themselves in the wizarding world once again at the first showing of “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” at 9 p.m. Nov. 17.

“It reminded me of how awesome Harry Potter is and how awesome the world is,” junior and HPS president Sara Hudnall said.

Society members continued part of a dress-up tradition that began during the original eight movie releases for many fans across the world. They wore the colors of their Hogwarts houses to show their love of the series.

With the release of “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them,” a movie about the early events leading up to the Harry Potter series and the United States’ magical community in the 1920s, and “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,” a play about the next generation of wizards after Harry Potter, members of the HPS have seen themselves and more casual fans regain excitement for the series that has waned through the years.

“It’s a story that anyone

can enjoy,” Hudnall said.

Attendance of Harry Potter Society events has grown recently, Hudnall said. She is unsure whether or not it has to do with the club’s change of leadership and style from previous years, but she believes the new materials are encouraging more people to stay.

“I think a lot of it has to be people are thinking about it a lot more,” Hudnall said.

Hudnall has yet to read the “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” script because of mixed reviews from other fans, but she loved “Fantastic Beasts,” she said.

After HPS came back from the movie, Hudnall facilitated an hour-and-a-half discussion about the movie and theories about what is to come in its sequels.

Usually, the talks are cut off after an hour, but Hudnall said she decided not to stop members because of all the new information they now had about the wizarding world.

“We always want to know more about the world J.K. Rowling has created,” Hudnall said.

Junior Meghan Burmeister became involved with the Harry Potter Society because Hudnall is her room-

mate and made her come along last year, she said.

Up until that point, she had only watched the movies, but she now has read all seven books and “Cursed Child.”

She said she prefers the original seven stories to the new play, but she appreciates how it helps the nowadult fans connect with Potter as a grown-up father.

“We’re not parents yet, but there are people older than us, and it’s cool to see Harry grow up with them,” Burmeister said.

Burmiester liked “Fantastic Beasts” much more.

She said one of the most exciting parts about “Fantastic Beasts” for her was the main character, Newt Scamander.

While Harry and most of his friends were all in Gryffindor, the Hogwarts house of bravery, Scamander was in the often-overlooked Hufflepuff house, which values loyalty and fairness.

Burmeister places herself into Hufflepuff and said she is glad to see her traits represented in the Harry Potter universe.

Burmeister said the growth in Harry Potter’s popularity makes it easier than ever to be a fan.

She has seen many quiet fans finally come forward to

admit their love for the series after the new movie and play.

“It’s less taboo to be really into Harry Potter,” Burmeister said. “It’s a lot more mainstream and cooler.”

Graduate student Kelsey Shanabarger found out about IU’s Harry Potter Society on accident.

While searching for more information about the University’s Quidditch Club, she came across HPS on Facebook and has been involved since.

Like Burmeister, Shanabarger was also less than impressed with “Cursed Child.” For her, it deviated too much from the development that was created in the original seven stories.

“The dialogue didn’t feel like the characters, at least what I thought from the books,” she said.

Although she didn’t like the new play, she said the new materials help Harry Potter fans more than they hurt them.

Old fans are able to relive their childhoods once again, and some are even able to bring their own children to discover the series like they did.

“It helps bring in a new generation,” Shanabarger said.

Collins students weave stars for peace project

By Chris Mura cmura@indiana.edu | @chris__mura

Metallic, sparkly and multicolor eight-point stars littered the tables of the Collins LLC Coffeehouse Tuesday night as students weaved the stars in collaboration with the Lotus Education & Arts Foundation.

The Collins Philanthropy Council organized the star-weaving workshop to foster community at Collins and to benefit Lotus’s year-long project, One Million Stars To End Violence.

The project works with other organizations around the world to raise awareness of interpersonal violence.

The overall goal is to eventually display one million woven stars at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Australia, according to the Lotus website.

Lotus hopes to make 10,000 of the total one million eight-pointed stars by Martin Luther King Jr. Day. They plan to display them at an exhibit in December at Bloomington City Hall before sending them to Australia.

Currently, they have collected about 8,200 stars, Lotus outreach director Loraine Martin said.

“The one great part of this workshop is that you get to interact with someone face to face because you have to have someone teach you how to make the stars, and then you can teach someone else,” director of philanthropy at Collins Emma Percival said. “It’s a great way to get connected.”

Only about fifteen people drifted through the Coffeehouse to make stars, though Percival said she did not expect many to attend.

The ones who did come, she said, were mostly active members of the project.

“The people who have come have been really enthusiastic about it, they’ve been asking a lot of questions and being really engaged in general,” she said.

“It plays into the community building part of the project.”

The One Million Stars To End Violence project started in 2012 after the rape and murder of an Australian woman, according to the One Million Stars to

“It started with violence against women, but it’s really about how we all need to make peace and safe places. It’s a stand against all forms of violence.

It’s a great way for people to see the beauty we can create when we come together and stand for something.”

Loraine Martin, Lotus outreach director

End Violence website.

The project’s long term goal, besides the Commonwealth Games display, is to foster community and encourage people to engage with and protect their fellow citizens in every potentially dangerous situation..

“It started with violence against women, but it’s really about how we all need to make peace and safe places,” Martin said. “It’s a stand against all forms of violence. It’s a great way for people to see the beauty we can create when we come together and stand for something.”

Percival had a more individualist hope for the project.

She said she hoped Collins residents took the opportunity to get to know each other by participating in the event.

“I’m hoping that people get a better understanding of the project as a whole, and I hope that they have a better opportunity to connect to people in Collins through this common effort to stop violence,” she said.

Martin said Lotus was the second group in the United States to sign up for the project and has worked with more than 50 groups in Bloomington to make stars for the project.

She also said Lotus will be having more public events in Bloomington in late December and early January for the final push to get to 10,000 stars.

“As an organization, Lotus is doing a great job of interacting with the community,” said Percival.

“They know how to do community building, and I’m glad we’ve been able to be a part of that.”

Hoosier Hills Food Bank surpasses 2016 goal

By Alyson Malinger afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali

Hoosier Hills Food Bank, in celebration of already distributing more food this year than in all of 2015, will bring oranges to lowincome families during the holiday season.

The food bank accepted a delivery of 40,000 pounds or 21 pallets of California oranges from the Smithville Charitable Foundation, paying only transportation and processing costs for a donation through the Feeding America network.

“Citrus is usually something we are not able to acquire,” Julio Alonso, executive director of HHFB, said.

“Coming from California, Texas or Florida, transportation costs are usually too high. But because of the

support from Smithville, we could secure this purchase.”

Repacking the cased oranges into 3-to-4-pound mesh bags will provide at least 10,000 units for distribution. Nine hundred twenty-five bags will go to low-income senior citizens as a fresh produce supplement to their monthly box of federal commodities in December.

Another 500 bags will be distributed through the food bank’s four mobile food pantries this month and 200 through Community Kitchen’s Christmas grocery distribution. The remaining oranges, enough for over 8,000 bags, are available to the food bank’s other partner agencies for distribution through their programs this month.

HHFB set a goal to

distribute over 1 million pounds of fresh produce in 2016. This continued in late summer when the food bank’s officials searched for funding for an end-of-year produce push. Both Smithville Charitable Foundation and Monroe County’s Sophia Travis Grant Program agreed to help with the push.

Following the food bank reaching the anticipated goal, the staff discussed raising their personal expectations for the end of the year. The new goal for the 2016 year is to increase this distribution goal to 1.3 million pounds of fresh produce. With the orange distribution, Alonso said he thinks this goal can be easily reached.

So far, in the last quarter of the year, the grants

have supported the distribution of over 144,000 pounds of fresh produce, including 9,000 pounds of apples, 4,000 pounds of carrots, 40,000 pounds of potatoes, 18,000 pounds of cucumbers, 17,000 pounds of tomatoes and 16,000 pounds of bananas, in addition to the incoming oranges, according to a HHFB press release.

With other produce sources including retail, garden, gleaning, Farmer’s Market donors and other purchases, HHFB has now met the “more than a million” goal and has distributed 1,125,335 pounds of fresh produce through Nov. 30.

That represents a 48 percent increase in fresh produce distributed from last November. So far, fresh pro-

duce constitutes 28 percent of the total food HHFB has distributed.

About 4 million pounds of food distributed through Nov. 30 is up 21 percent from last year at this time and is already higher than the 3,766,104 pounds distributed in all of 2015, according to the release.

Looking at the upcoming year, Alonso said goals will definitely be raised, but the staff will be focused on first maintaining the goals of this past year.

“We know we can really step up our game,” Alonso said.

With the partnering organizations, HHFB was able to distribute to its 6 counties and collectively serve 25,800 people throughout the year.

“My favorite part of my

job is just knowing that we are able to provide people with something so basic for human life — something that everyone needs and a lot of us take for granted,” Alonso said. “For us being a part of making sure those families get what they need makes it worth it.”

Bloomington veteran still stands with Standing Rock Katelyn Haas

“If Indians are being water cannoned in sub-freezing temperatures and the people up here are being hurt, we’ve got some domestic enemies.”

haask@umail.iu.edu | @khaas96

Marc Haggarty sat on the cold concrete floor of a basketball court in the Cannonball Community Center. The night before, he slept with Navajo veterans.

For months, people have gathered at the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation to protest the construction of a 1,172-mile pipeline, which would deliver oil from North Dakota to Illinois.

The protesters said it threatens drinking water around where the pipeline would be placed and disrupt sacred sites.

The Dakota Access LLC, a subsidiary of Energy Transfer Crude Oil Company LLC, said the pipeline will meet or exceed state and federal safety requirements and at a minimum will be designed in accordance with 49 Code of Federal Regulations Part 195.

Haggarty, a 68-year-old Bloomington resident and veteran, drove to the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation about a week ago and is now spending his time at the Cannonball Community Center.

He said there are thousands of veterans at the camp. Many of the veterans are members of various tribes.

“We’ve met up here and are trying to make sure the police don’t hurt anybody,” Haggarty said. “We think the police will be more reluctant to hurt us veterans than they would brown-skinned people.”

He said he has not seen

People hold up peace signs while Morton County Police spray peaceful protesters with water cannons in subzero temperatures.

anyone directly hurt by the police. He said this may be because the police have put barbed wire around areas of the camp.

The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe won a victory Sunday to block the pipeline when the Department of the Army announced it will not approve an easement that would allow the proposed Dakota Access Pipeline to

cross under Lake Oahe in North Dakota.

“Although we have had continuing discussion and exchanges of new information with the Standing Rock Sioux and Dakota Access, it’s clear that there’s more work to do,” Haggarty said.

“The best way to complete that work responsibly and expeditiously is to explore alternate routes for the

pipeline crossing.”

Haggarty said the drilling is not going to be halted. He said the lights are still going.

“It’s going to be so cold in January that they’re hoping to drive everyone out,” he said.

He said the wind chill at the camp has been subzero for two days. Winds are at 60 mph, and 12,000 people are stranded and camping.

“Half women, a lot of elders and white people in their early twenties trying to make it through this blizzard.” Haggarty said.

The center has fourwheel-drive cars going back and forth to take hypothermia patients to get medical attention.

“Everybody is just trying to escape the blizzard,” Haggarty said.

Standing Rock Sioux’s tribal chairman, Dave Archambault II, is encouraging the people supporting the tribe to dismantle the camp and return to their homes. He said if the camp stays, there is risk of further provocation from local law enforcement.

“If the camp stays where it is currently located, people are risking their lives,” Archambault said in a press release on the Stand with Standing Rock website. “I don’t want anyone to be living in an unsafe environment. We need to stay in prayer, believe in our prayer and begin our journey home in prayer.”

He said it is now time to pivot to the next phase of the struggle.

Haggarty said the government is still armed. He said the veterans are not armed and are all committed to peace.

“We are sworn to protect from all enemies, foreign and domestic,” Haggarty said.

“If Indians are being water cannoned in sub-freezing temperatures and the people up here are being hurt, we’ve got some domestic enemies.”

Ornament sales at vet clinic Stolen Ford F150 located benefit wildlife rehabilitation From IDS reports

By Alyson Malinger afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali

Wanting both to give back and spread holiday cheer, Lindsay Hine Schroeder, kennel manager of College Mall Veterinary Hospital, created a way to do both within her place of work.

Throughout the month of December, the local artist and CMVH employee will be selling her handmade felt ornaments to clients and local community members alike.

WildCare Inc. will be receiving 90 percent of all proceeds from the ornament sale. WildCare is a local nonprofit organization that cares for sick, injured and orphaned wildlife.

All the donations will go to the organization’s rehabilitation department, bringing healed animals back into the wild.

“It’s nice that you can come into work every day and you know you are making a difference,” Schroeder said.

Ornaments range from $10 to $12.50 each. Payments can be made via cash or check.

The seasonal sale began nine years ago when Schroeder discovered her love

of painting ceramic ornaments. This then spread to felt creations starting with an owl ornament.

Every year Schroeder said she tries to add a new animal to the collection.

This year multiple Christmas-colored themed pieces are featured in addition to other animals such as raccoons and foxes.

There is also an ornament of Lil Bub, an internet famous cat from Bloomington.

This specific ornament is also featured in the Lil Bub Big Shop located in downtown Bloomington.

Other ornaments can be customized with an animal’s name on it and help with client purchases.

Schroeder started to display the ornaments in the vet hospital to expand foot traffic and gain exposure to the cause she was also supporting.

“My son had the biggest smile on his face when he found out that his ornament was helping an animal in need,” Schroeder said.

Hoping to expand the project, Schroeder said she really wants to have children involved in her work.

She said she pictures children and their families

displaying their handmade ornaments and demonstrating how to make the ornaments in a community-wide event.

Expanding to paper and other materials could help this vision come true, she said.

The donations from the purchase of the ornaments make a large difference for the organization, said Chika Akiyama, veterinary technician at CMVH and Wildcare representative.

“It’s wonderful because there is no federal funding for the organization,” Akiyama said. “They sell really well every year.”

Akiyama described Schroeder as extremely hard-working and knowledgeable about the business and the needs of the animals and their owners.

“For me, there are a lot of things that I can still learn, and this environment that Lindsay created is very helpful with that,” Akiyama said.

Akiyama said the ornament project is just one of the ways Schroeder gives back to the community.

“I want to inspire others to do good in the world as well,” Schoeder said. “It doesn’t take a lot of money, just some time.”

A truck that was reported missing in Bloomington was found late Monday afternoon. The truck, a 1995 Ford F150 pickup, had been driven into a tree on Country Club Road, which is east

of Nashville, Indiana.

Police determined the driver, 28-year-old Jesse Irvin Richardson, had been driving at a speed that made it impossible for the truck to take a curve. The truck went off the road, hit a fence and crashed into a tree.

Richardson suffered multiple compound fractures and was taken by airlift to Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis.

The investigation is ongoing.

EDITORIAL BOARD

ILLUSTRATION BY KATIE MEIER | IDS

BRINGING HOME THE BACON Traces of animal fat in British banknotes spark an unnecessary social media uproar The Bank of England has been receiving severe criticism over a recent announcement concerning the new £5 note.

To make notes cleaner and more durable, the Bank has begun manufacturing these notes using tallow. Tallow, an ingredient in many soaps and candles, contains animal fat, and given their commitment to not killing animals, many vegans and vegetarians are infuriated.

While it makes sense that citizens so concerned with animal rights are taking the banner against animal product in

official notes, the outcry is a bit over the top. After all, while tallow is a product of animal fat, it’s something present in thousands of other products in a variety of facets of life.

Crayons, candles, plastic bags and even toothpaste contain tallow, so most omnivorous citizens, as well as a number of their vegetarian counterparts, use products containing tallow on a daily basis.

Plus, in using these banknotes, citizens aren’t directly contributing to the slaughter of animals in the same way that consuming

meat does. When used, a note isn’t consumed. It is simply transferred, so while the initial printing may have required new animal fat, using the bills has no bearing on the death of an animal.

So if vegans had spoken out before these bills were out, that could have been productive. At this point, it’s simply unnecessary noise.

There are hundreds of legitimate concerns for animal lovers to worry about.

A banknote is a trivial matter beside companies that raise animals in abhorrent conditions.

Rather than crying foul at a government attempt to strengthen their currency (literally), activists should have their eyes on more pressing concerns.

While a small segment of the population is extremely concerned with the plight of animals and is accordingly disgusted with this note, many of these activists so concerned over the presence of tallow in their bill disregard the tallow in an assortment of other nonvegan products.

This is simply a case of people wanting something to be concerned about, and

finding that in a trivial government misstep.

For some context, statistically speaking, 90 percent of U.S. bills contain trace amounts of cocaine because of involvement with the drug trade.

By using a U.S. bill, the average American citizen has as much a connection to the drug trade as the average £5 spender does to the slaughter of animals.

That’s to say, none. So in using these new bills, there’s nothing for vegans to worry about, as there’s no blood on their hands.

However, each year, these words also tend to sum up the year’s Zeitgeist rather aptly. Last year’s word of the year was “identity,” which made a lot of sense given the amount of weight given to each person’s individual definitions of self, especially in politics.

The word last year was sort of uplifting. I wrote last December the captivation with identity was binding people together rather than tearing them apart — people were using words and labels to describe to each other, how they felt and who they were. It was progress.

This year, we have regressed. Instead of letting different identities become things to celebrate and enrich communities, our country has taken to fearing them.

According to dictionary. com, we first saw a surge in

‘xenophobia’ look-ups June 24, shortly after the Brexit decision.

In a not-so-subtly-xenophobic decision, the United Kingdom decided to leave the European Union in response to a fear of immigration surge and refugee arrivals in the UK. among other reasons.

Since then, the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance has noticed a rise in antiforeigner and xenophobic sentiment, according to an October article in UK’s Independent.

The other United Statesbased source for this uptick in searches for the word xenophobia should be pretty clear to you by now. Hint: It rhymes with ‘fondled rump’ and is president-elect.

Donald Trump’s early comments about Mexicans being rapists and criminals evolved into vows to build a wall, which evolved into a lot of anti-Muslim sentiment, which evolved into a potential Muslim registry.

In 2015, Trump was enough of a joke that no one took his comments seriously. Sort of like your drunk and racist greatuncle, except entirely more dangerous because he was running for a position of immense power.

MAGGIE EICKHOFF is a junior in international studies.

In 2016, however, it was clear his candidacy was no joke, and his polling numbers indicated a large amount of Americans actually agreed with him.

His words empowered the racism and — yes — xenophobia in this country.

These sentiments have existed here for a while, but now those who have them are encouraged to act on them.

For them, Trump acts as permission and protection.

Groups like the alt-right, who have traditionally hidden in the trenches of Reddit and 4chan, have shown themselves in real life. They vandalize public schools with anti-black rhetoric and hoot threats to Muslim women on the street.

This year’s word of the year is grim, y’all, but we can change it.

We have to love each other, yes, but that isn’t enough. We have to speak up when we witness or experience hatred.

Don’t let the 2017 word of the year be “genocide.” meickhof@umail.iu.edu @maggie_eickhoff

For my last column in the IDS, I figured I’d write about my go-to topic: Senate elections. Looking ahead to 2018, there are several intriguing races and factors in play.

Let me preface the rest of my column by stating that the party that holds the presidency normally loses seats in midterm elections.

However, numerically, the GOP holds the advantage in 2018.

They defend only two potentially vulnerable seats in Arizona and Nevada, while the Democrats can face several difficult challenges, particularly in Indiana, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota and West Virginia. Other states could become particularly tricky if the GOP can recruit allstar candidates.

One good example is Ohio, where Governor John Kasich is prevented by term limits from running for governor and is extremely popular.

One key factor that will contribute to the outcomes either way is the President Trump factor. If he exceeds expectations in his first two years as president, this could hand the GOP a much-needed boost that could negate the midterm effect I stated above.

I am most interested in the races in Indiana, North Dakota and Montana.

In Indiana, Democratic incumbent Joe Donnelly will face a strong challenger, regardless of who emerges from the Republican primary. I’ve heard murmurs that Rep. Susan Brooks, R5th District, is considering a run. Although the incumbency advantage will help Donnelly, I think Brooks could overcome it.

In North Dakota, incumbent Heidi Heitkamp will face a strong opponent if she remains in office. As a conservative Democrat, she is under consideration for a cabinet position as Secretary of the Interior or Energy. She is very qualified for Energy, considering she ran an energy company during her ten-year hiatus from politics.

If appointed, and given she accepts the nomination, this seat would be an easy GOP hold. If not, this seat will be extremely competitive. Trump won the state by 36 points, and John Hoeven, GOP incumbent senator, won his reelection campaign by a staggering 62 points. It’s safe to say that if a strong GOP candidate, such as North Dakota at-large congressional district Rep. Kevin Cramer,

STEVEN ARANYI is a senior in history.

decides to run for her seat, Heitkamp could face an uphill battle.

In Montana, incumbent John Tester may face a tough race from Montana at-large congressional district Rep. Ryan Zinke.

Zinke would make the race very interesting, as he has a strong military background, which is not an area where Tester succeeds.

Furthermore, Zinke has openly opposed Tester on many occasions, which would make this race feisty.

Both Zinke and Tester have statewide name recognition, and Montanans aren’t opposed to voting for either party. This race will be incredibly interesting to follow moving forward.

I could see the GOP picking up between two and five seats in total, depending on the Trump effect and turnout. I’m truly intrigued by many races in 2018, and I am looking forward to seeing how they play out. The numbers favor the GOP. It’s time to capitalize. staranyi@indiana.edu @TweetsByAranyi

BUT THAT’S NOT MY BUSINESS

FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH

COLIN’S CORNER

They’re Grr-AltRight

Stretch but don’t snap

COLIN DOMBROWSKI is a freshman in marketing.

BRITTANY BAUERNFIEND is a junior in English.

Let’s face it. We all have those days when we can’t be bothered to do anything, even love ourselves.

College students have much to stress and worry about. We have bills to pay, jobs and classes to go to, and homework to finish.

For some, this isn’t out of the ordinary.

For others, it’s a whole new ball game. Regardless of whether or not it’s your first time paying rent or having a job, it can still royally suck.

That being said, we must make time to love ourselves.

We have to appreciate our bodies and our minds and be good to them. We have to challenge ourselves.

We have to stretch but not snap.

Push yourself to where it’s a little uncomfortable but doesn’t cause too much pain.

What is self-love, though?

Well, that’s up to you, honestly. You can interpret it however you so choose. I have a few ideas for you to get started.

Eat healthy things.

When you consume junk, you’re going to feel like junk. Trust me. I have a sweet tooth, and I love my junk food, but it doesn’t really do anything for me besides make me feel crappy a few hours later.

Drink plenty of water and stay hydrated. Eat a banana or apple. Maybe make yourself a smoothie, or buy one somewhere.

Whatever works for you.

Go to bed.

Sleep is very underrated. As young adults, we need roughly nine hours of sleep per night. I know that’s hard to do sometimes with work and classes, but at least try to get a few sleep cycles in.

One complete sleep cycle amounts to about three hours of sleep. Try to get a few of those in every night.

If you deprive your body of the rest and sleep it needs, you’re going to be falling asleep in class, and no one wants that.

Exercise is important, too. You don’t need to go out and run 10 miles a day.

Walk to class instead of taking that A Bus. Maybe take an evening stroll.

Go to the gym on campus and make your gym fee actually count for the semester.

Self-love is about loving yourself and doing what’s right for your body.

I mean, you only get one of those, so you might as well treat it well.

There are plenty of students on this campus.

Chances are you can find someone, a new friend, to help you stay on the right track. Find a gym buddy.

Find an art buddy.

Do what makes you happy.

If you love painting, paint.

If you love taking photos, go out and take some killer ones.

Self-love is more than just a physical thing. It’s a mental state as well. You need to be conscious of your surroundings and find the things that make you happy.

As the semester is quickly coming to a close, it’s time to evaluate the choices you’ve made.

Are you content or do you want to explore new things? Think long and hard about it and them make a decision.

Stop making excuses and just do the thing.

Join the club that you’re afraid of joining.

Strive for greatness and strive for loving yourself.

Better yourself. bnbauern@umail.iu.edu

follow in suit.

Although having cute pets wander around airports is a nice idea, I think there are many more serious issues that airports should tackle, and I don’t think bringing a squad of therapy animals is going to help create a solution.

I know many who read this will peg me as a coldhearted animal hater who has nothing better to do with her life than whine about cute, innocent puppies and miniature pigs.

While this may be true, I also think that animals are best roaming around in grassy fields and not licking up the remains of someone’s half-eaten Auntie Anne’s pretzel.

Last week, Twitter was, as usual, a hubbub of political controversy.

Surprisingly, this contention wasn’t because of President-elect Donald Trump. Instead, it featured two companies at odds with each other.

It began when Kellogg’s decided to remove advertisements from Breitbart, a conservative news site, because Breitbart doesn’t align with the company’s political views.

Breitbart has been growing increasingly controversial as their editor, Steven Bannon, is set to take a high-profile position in the Trump administration and is facing accusations of appealing to the alt-right and harboring anti-Semitic views.

But this isn’t where the controversy ends.

After Kellogg’s cut their advertisements, Breitbart fought back, starting #DumpKelloggs in an attempt to get people to upload pictures of Kellogg’s cereal in the toilet.

Accompanying this, Breitbart started a boycott of Kellogg’s products and many conservatives are joining in.

Liberals, on the other hand, have unsurprisingly denounced this hashtag, comparing it to the stupidity of the “Hamilton” boycott, where people who weren’t going to buy “Hamilton” tickets in the first place announced they definitely wouldn’t buy them after Vice President-elect Mike Pence was addressed after a performance. Many liberals have actually taken to buying more boxes of cereal to counter the conservative movement. So, who knows, this boycott might result in higher sales for Kellogg.

So, who’s right? Well, in a reality, it’s no one.

This whole situation is absolutely ridiculous, and there’s no reason that this should be happening.

Firstly, Kellogg’s shouldn’t be pulling their advertising from Breitbart.

Though Breitbart has published controversial content in the past, they’ve already received backlash for those, and those are the opinions of individual radical columnists.

Further, while the left may portray Breitbart as a hate-mongering white nationalist site, a quick Google search proves it to simply be a fairly typical conservative news site.

My larger issue with Kellogg’s is their claim that the website doesn’t align with their company’s political views.

What? How does a cereal company have political views? Was Toucan Sam an ardent Bernie supporter?

Or is Tony the Tiger a Libertarian? This absurdity demonstrates a fundamental problem I have with corporate America.

Companies have political pulpits. They’re using their money and leverage to push a certain agenda, and it’s not helped by Citizens United giving them free reign in elections.

As for Breitbart, they’re just being childish.

While Kellogg’s is unjustified in cutting their ads, a news website shouldn’t be publicly attacking a cereal company.

This boycott? They’re no better than their beloved Trump with his assault on SNL. This is yet another example of companies using their power for a non-financial agenda, and while it does draw attention to Breitbart, it’s negative, further aligning them with radicals. So the next time you’re having a bowl of cereal while reading the news, remember the corporate interests behind them both.

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

Trump coverage reminds us to never stop learning Last summer, prior to beginning my penultimate year at IU, I was given a piece of advice I will never forget.

For many young adults, the ages of 19 to 20-something are characterized by self-reflection, navigating the confusing path of quasiadulthood and searching for one’s proper place in the world. Some find that place sooner than others.

During such a transitional and introspective period of my life, three words seemed to assuage my apprehensions and provide direction where so many guidance counselors and career coaches had failed.

Never stop learning.

I’ve tried my best to take those words to heart.

Coming from a business background, my decision to apply for opinion editor could be perceived as a curious one. I’ve always found writing to be a therapeutic exercise, but I viewed this as an opportunity to diversify my skills and leave my realm of comfort.

More than anything, it was an opportunity to learn

about the journalistic process, something I had little formal experience with prior to this semester. Given the current state of social and political affairs, I could not have helped manage the opinion section at a time more conducive to learning, not just about journalism, but about people.

The outcome of November’s election highlighted the stark racial, cultural and economic divides that have stratified our nation.

The first step to bridging these seemingly irreparable divisions is a willingness to learn. Stubbornness breeds ignorance, and the extreme factions of both political parties are by far the worst offenders.

Be open to opposing lines of thought, even if they seem ridiculous.

I’ve been troubled by the sheer volume of biased Donald Trump coverage in the media.

Liz Spayd, public editor of the New York Times, even acknowledged this bias, conceding that some of the tweets from Times journalists were “over the line.” In

2016, the word ‘Trump’ was mentioned in more than 11 percent of all the Times’ articles. Conservative news site Breitbart entered the mainstream this year as well with equally one-sided smears against liberals.

In both cases, it’s generally the same recycled narratives cropping up again and again. Diversify the methods by which you consume news. Dig deep, and don’t be afraid to ask “Why?” five or six times in succession.

Bloomington may not be the most ideologically balanced community, but few places fall smack-dab in the center of the political spectrum. The point is knowledge generally doesn’t gravitate to us — we have to seek it.

As we continue to transition into what some imperfectly refer to as the real world, we would be wise to follow the examples provided by Thomas Jefferson and the fathers of the American Enlightenment, who refuted many axioms and perceived truths of 18th century society.

DANIEL KILCULLEN is a junior in international business.

Question everything, and make an effort to practice careful self-reflection before scrolling down to the comments section.

This semester, I’ve had the privilege of writing with people with extremely varied backgrounds and interests.

I’ve read columns written by well-informed individuals on topics ranging from politics to pop culture.

Well, maybe more of the former.

Nonetheless, it’s been a useful exercise in broadening my perspectives on a multitude of issues and considering points I previously would have blindly shot down.

So whether or not our opinions have influenced yours these last several months, I hope you learned a thing or two. dkilcull@indiana.edu @daniel_kilc_

KARL’S KORNER

Now that pigs can fly, I don’t like it We’ve all had that plane ride with the obnoxiously loud animal. Just last year as I headed home for spring break, a boy decided it was a good idea to bring a kitten on the plane.

Thankfully it was a short flight, and I spent the majority listening to the Weeknd on full blast.

Others, unfortunately, run into this dilemma on longer, international flights.

Upon some investigation on pettravel.com, the American Disabilities Act allows service pets to accompany owners onto flights. This makes sense, and I am in no way hating on those who travel with a service animal.

That being said, I am bothered by comfort creatures, otherwise known as emotional support animals.

Essentially, these animals are therapy accessories and can be dogs, cats, parrots, horses, elephants, lizards, monkeys and the recent addition of pigs.

I don’t know about you,

but a parrot on a plane sounds like a stress-inducer not a stress-reliever. You want to talk about echo chambers?

Many airlines accept these assistive animals on domestic flights, and British Airways, Japan Airlines and Virgin Atlantic allow them to board international flights as well.

Although “The Horse Flies to Japan” sounds like an excellent children’s book, it shouldn’t enter the non-fiction genre anytime soon.

The worst part of it all is the airports are actually into it. I get it — as evidenced by every single Facebook feed, miniature pigs are adorable. Do they belong at airports? Apparently the San Francisco International Airport thinks they do.

On Monday, LiLou, a Juliana-breed therapy pig passed her TSA PreCheck and was ready to cuddle up with passengers experiencing pre-flight anxiety.

She is a member of SFO’s Wag Brigade, a cohort of 22 friendly therapy dogs and handler teams to help relax people who have pre-travel jitters.

Sure, travelling can be stressful. I’ve run through the entire Chicago O’Hare Airport in 15 minutes and because of my breezy dress, everyone I passed saw my bright pink undies. At the moment catching my flight was far more important than public decency.

You know what’s also stressful? Dog poop.. While I’m sure these pets are very well trained, I’m not sure they’d be able to make it all the way to the Animal Relief Area the SFO has so conveniently supplied.

The SFO isn’t alone.

There’s a Denver International Airport Cainine Airport Therapy Squad. Los Angeles International Airport has a Pets Unstressing Passengers program. After seeing this national trend, I’m sure more airports will

» WILSON

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 The former starting offensive lineman, then only a sophomore, hoped to have a dislocated lunate bone in his left wrist repaired. It stemmed from an earlier knuckle injury his trainers had told him not to worry about and his coaches had blamed him for having. It was an injury that began a twoyear stretch of shame and denial from Wilson’s staff.

Taylor was a major contributor during Wilson’s first IU season in 2011. He started 10 games at left guard during his freshman season and the first six games of his sophomore season. In the spring of his freshman year, he injured his left ring finger and told the trainers.

Taylor said the trainers did not give him an in-depth examination and told him it was a sprained finger. They told him not to worry about it — the pain would go away.

The pain continued from there. After Taylor complained further, his trainers finally sent him to have an MRI on his knuckle.

The MRI found he had a hole in his knuckle. Taylor said IU handled it by putting a splint on, which held his pinky and ring fingers together and traveled down the length of his hand ending at the tip of his lunate bone in his wrist. He then dislocated that lunate bone.

Taylor claims the dislocation came from a lack of mobility from the splint. The surgery in Carmel came the next morning.

During another season, former player Laray Smith said he was told by trainers he had a back bruise. Doctors disagreed and told Smith he had a blood clot in his back.

Wilson still pressured him to play. Smith played the game.

To this day, he said he wishes he hadn’t.

One former player, who asked to be anonymous, from Wilson’s first season said trainers were scared to tell Wilson of injuries because he would “cuss them out.” Wilson would then go and cuss the player out for reporting it.

These included establishing leadership and vision within the Indiana Department of Education, restoring a partnership between education and stakeholders in the state, providing districts with quality tools to enhance instruction and support teachers and putting students before politics, according to a press release from McCormick’s transition team.

“These objectives were a primary focus as I formed my transition team that I am announcing today,” McCormick said in the press release. “The team’s commitment to Hoosier students

Then-head Coach Kevin Wilson yells from the sideline during the against Michigan on Nov. 14, 2015, at Memorial Stadium. Former IU players have come out with accusations against Wilson following his resignation. Many claim he pressured them to play through injuries.

Former defensive lineman Nick Carovillano said trainers ignored his requests for treatment and told him to “stop being a pussy.” It was eventually discovered by doctors that Carovillano had herniated discs. His father, Dean, said Carovillano could hardly walk.

Former receiver Dominique Booth told WTHR he was put through a challenging workout despite his concussion. When he got home he vomited and suffered residual concussion symptoms for three months, he said.

Not all football players had the same experiences.

Many current and former IU players and staff members, including Peyton Eckert, Ralston Evans and Nate Sudfeld, went out of their way to defend Wilson.

Eckert, a former offensive lineman who played in 24 games at IU, missed his junior season with a back injury. He said Wilson and offensive line coach Greg Frey would constantly check on his status and watch out for

his well-being.

“When they brought it up, and I said how great I felt through the pain, they told me that my life after football should mean just as much to me as getting back on the field,” he told the IDS. Elliott Wratten spent seven seasons with IU as a student assistant and graduate assistant and now coaches at Alcorn State. He said he never witnessed or heard of any of these claims in his time, and Wilson always taught coaches and players never to question the trainer.

“We spent a lot of time talking about making sure nothing like that happens,” Wratten said.

Wratten also said many of the players who complained of abuse might have done other things to have problems with Wilson.

will drive critical decisionmaking which will ultimately impact Indiana’s education system an ensure Indiana has one of the best Departments of Education in the nation.”

McCormick will transition into her position January 9, 2017.

Samantha Hart, press secretary for the Indiana Department of Education, said McCormick and Ritz have met in order to transition forward and serve the children of Indiana.

“Superintendent Ritz is committed to ensuring a smooth and orderly transition for the Indiana Department of Education over the coming months,” Hart said. “Hoosiers deserve nothing less.”

Ritz spent much of her four years as state superintendent of public instruction focusing on moving away from learning mentali-

ties including the “to-thetest” and using assessment as a measurement for state funding.

McCormick said the state needs to develop a credible statewide assessment system.

Her transition team is made up of 17 people.

Ritz will leave her superintendent position with the Democrats having no major elected officials to stand for Democratic education policies, with a Republican governor, largely Republican-dominated legislature and now a Republican state superintendent.

On Dec. 1, McCormick’s transition team met for the first time according to the press release. The group will help to ensure an experienced and talented Indiana Department of Education leadership cabinet can support McCormick as she prepares to take office.

to shame him. Offensive line coach Greg Frey told him he broke his wrist because he used bad technique, Taylor said.

Coaches played the injury film clip to Taylor over and over again.

“You guys left me at the hospital, and now you want to tell me the reason I’m injured is because of bad technique,” Taylor said. “Bad technique by the trainer, for sure.”

Smith, Carovillano and Taylor all agreed that once injured, their coaches didn’t care about them. Injured players weren’t allowed to leave the field until every other player had. They couldn’t be in the dining room first.

Taylor said players were often told injuries were their fault.

Wilson and Frey often put him down, Taylor said. He said at one point Frey didn’t speak to him for a month and would put him down in front of the entire team.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 University of Washington shipped the tissue as part of federally funded work, which has allowed IU faculty to create cell lines for current and future study.

“We are the only undergraduate pro-life group on campus, so we felt it was our duty to address this issue and let them know we’re IU students and we do not support this,” Eherenman said. “We would appreciate, and we would actually encourage, that they do not continue this practice, even though the research is important for Alzheimer’s disease.”

Eherenman, vice president of Students for Life at IU, said she would like the University to find other means of conducting the research.

“The research cannot be

he said.

Taylor had surgery at the end of his sophomore year to repair his knuckle, but he didn’t heal correctly. Trainers issued him pain pads and 800 milligrams of Ibuprofen before practice. Before games, they gave him anti-inflammatory nasal inhalants and cortisone injections to deal with the pain.

After Taylor’s junior season, he discovered he was on the verge of losing the lunate bone in his wrist due to a lack of blood flow. Doctors fused all eight bones in his wrist and replaced the knuckle.

Taylor wanted to sit out his senior year with a medical redshirt and come back healthy the next year. He said he did not feel mentally or physically recovered yet.

Wilson denied his request and told Taylor in a one-onone meeting he wouldn’t allow the redshirt because he didn’t think Taylor cared enough to come back and play.

Taylor shared his feelings with Frey and trainer Craig

Tweedy, who Taylor said “shrugged it off ” and suggested other ways to get him on the field.

Tweedy also declined to comment, but he provided this short statement: “I have respect for the Indiana University medical staff, student-athletes and Coach Wilson, and I have no comment.”

Taylor said he couldn’t bend his wrist but was still used to fill in for starters.

He said people who sign up to play football know what they’re getting into.

They know they might roll an ankle, break a bone or get injured in some other way. He didn’t expect to finish his career with a replaced knuckle and a fused wrist at 22. He said he wishes he had just paid for college.

“I’m all for the saying, ‘If you can play, play,’ but I clearly wasn’t,” he said. “Being injured isn’t about being soft. It’s about being smart.”

done with the tissues available from other sources, such as spontaneous miscarriages, and it addresses a horrible, degenerative disease that affects more than 5 million Americans and is the second-fastest growing disease in the country,” Cate said.

IU researchers have conducted other fetal tissue studies on cell lines traceable to as far back as the 1960s and as far away as the Netherlands, Cate said.

The same lines have been crucial in the development of vaccines for chickenpox, polio, hepatitis, rabies and more.

Despite possible benefits of the tissue and subsequent cell lines, Eherenman expressed concern that studies on current fetal brain tissue could create a market for aborted fetuses.

“If they need more brains to research on, they

The University of Washington is only allowed by law to charge for the shipping of the tissue, Cate said, which indicates the practice is not likely to incentivize abortions.

Beyond the research and the laws and the potential market, members of Students for Life said they believe the bodies of aborted fetuses should be treated with more respect and there should be proof the parents had agreed to donate the body to science.

Eherenman said she worries the use of aborted fetal tissue in research could still cast a positive light on abortion, which Students for Life will not support.

etty Cockrum has added a pep talk to her morning routine. It’s simple, it’s short, it’s five words: “Get out of bed, Betty.”

Cockrum, leader of Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky, has seen her fair share of political upsets. However, when it comes to the results of the 2016 election, she said she’s never been so wrong.

The agenda and mood of Planned Parenthood’s post-election national meeting changed dramatically after Trump’s election, Cockrum said.

“When your fellow CEOs say, ‘It’s just no fun anymore. It just gets harder by the day,’ that’s tough,” Cockrum said. “You just got to go shoulder to shoulder and keep each other going.”

President-elect Donald Trump has flipflopped on abortion rights through the years.

Most recently, he told CBS’s Lesley Stahl he wants state government to mandate abortion access. When asked what would happen if women need an abortion in a state that bans it, Trump suggested women cross state lines to seek services.

Rep. Curt Nisly, R-Goshen, has already proposed an abortion ban to be voted on in 2017.

In Indiana, 9,430 women obtained abortions in 2011, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a sexual and reproductive health advocacy group.

If Nisly’s bill passes, the thousands of abortions that happen every year would be criminally investigated on charges as serious as manslaughter or murder, Nisly said.

The bill, Protection at Conception, would be

considered unconstitutional as a direct violation of the Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion in 1973.

Overturning this Supreme Court decision has long been a top priority for former Indiana governor and vice president-elect Mike Pence.

While in Congress, Pence was the first to sponsor a bill to defund Planned Parenthood in 2007, and after three attempts it was eventually passed by the House of Representatives in 2011.

Band releases first EP after five years

The Warm Bloods perform at the Basement in November in Nashville, Tennessee. The band just released its first EP.

By Katie Chrisco kchrisco@ius.edu | @katiechrisco

While singer-songwriter Steve Plessinger has been writing music for years, his new band’s first EP was released in November and was celebrated with a show Dec. 4 in the Player’s Pub. Plessinger said he originally wanted to record some of his original songs on his own and asked friend and musician Mike Stogdill if Plessinger record in Stogdill’s home studio about five years ago. After hearing the songs, Stogdill said he became interested in playing with Plessinger, and the band, Warm Bloods, began to take shape.

“The idea was to take

the songs I’ve been playing acoustically and turning them into rock arrangements,” Plessinger said. “I have a lot of different influences and like those to come through in my music.”

The band released its self-titled EP for streaming on Bandcamp in June, and now physical copies of the CD are available at the band’s live shows and at Landlocked Records. Stogdill said the album took almost five years to make. He said he and Plessinger, despite having different musical influences and writing styles, worked well together on the material.

Although the Warm Bloods’ EP is a recent release, Plessinger said the band is already looking to the future.

He said the group has five more songs it would like to record in February.

“We really just want to do kind of a marathon weekend recording session,” he said.

“We want it to have a different feel, like a spirit-of-the-moment type thing and knock it all out in a weekend and put out an EP this spring.”

Plessinger said when it comes to songwriting, he sometimes uses a personal experience for the emotional core of the song and creates characters to express those feelings. He said some songs are more happy-go-lucky, while others deal with more painful emotions.

“I think it’s great when you write a happy song, but if you write a really good sad

song it helps people connect with how they’re feeling. Ultimately, if nothing else, what we do with music — making money or doing shows — these are all great, but if you don’t have an emotional impact with your audience, to me it’s not good art. If people walk away from a show feeling something, that’s the real success. That’s the satisfying part.”

While Stogdill said the Warm Bloods are toying around with the idea of playing some of his original songs, Plessinger remains the main songwriter of the band.

Stogdill said this is the first band he has been a part of for which he has not been the lead singer.

“It’s different, but it’s

cool,” he said. “I really like it. I like being able to sit back and kind of check out the crowd and do my own thing and not worry about it. There’s a lot of stress that comes along with being the lead singer of a band, and I kind of enjoy not having that with this.”

Stogdill said although the album isn’t perfect, he is happy with it. He said it is difficult to find musicians like Plessinger who truly care about the music and are unwilling to sell out.

“Steve doesn’t write music because of what’s popular,” Stogdill said. “Steve writes music from his heart.

It’s real, and I respect that, and because of that I think we have put something together that is timeless.”

IU’s many a cappella groups will come together on Wednesday for a free winter showcase, according to the Indiana Memorial Union Board’s website.

Union Board organized the event to provide a break from dead week stress and upcoming final exams, according to the event’s Facebook page.

The show will feature performances from Ladies First, Hooshir, Another Round, Crimson Cadence and Resting Pitch Face.

While these groups will all perform holiday songs in a cappella arrangements, the groups vary stylistically.

This diversity comes from each group’s makeup – some comprise all female singers like Ladies First, while others, like Hooshir, cater toward Jewish or Hebrew influences.

All groups have performed throughout the semester individually, but this concert will be the first time students can enjoy their diverse sounds in the same show.

Union Board will also offer other study break activities like coloring, yoga and writing at 6 p.m. Wednesday in the Sassafras Room, according to Union Board’s website.

A YEAR IN AIX

Coming back to Paris, the greatest city in the world, for the third time Don’t trust anyone who says they don’t like Paris.

They’re either trying too hard or they’re straight up lying. Paris is without a doubt the best city in the world.

You can love your hometown, you can love New York or Los Angeles, but when it comes down to it, Paris beats them all — whether you’ve experienced it yet or not.

I firmly believe there’s a reason many famous poets, authors, musicians and performers had a stint living or working in Paris.

It can inspire even the most cynical person and breathe new life into the average Joe. You simply can’t visit Paris and not feel exhilarated.

I’ve been itching to make a visit since I landed in Charles de Gaulle and was whisked straight away to the south of France without even a glimpse of the Parisian skyline.

Even the dreary sky and sharp cold that greeted me in the 11th arrondissement Friday afternoon af-

ter months of sunshine and warmth only made me more excited.

I was determined to explore all the hidden corners of Paris I had missed on my previous two visits.

My hostel was right in the heart of Chinatown, and I immediately took advantage of the cheap but quality food available on every street.

The French really haven’t mastered the balance of spice and flavor yet like the Chinese have, though.

I headed down to Oberkampf Street, one of the trendiest and most bustling areas in the arrondissement.

It was a welcome change to experience Paris without tourists clogging every corner and traps waiting to take your money.

Saturday was devoted to shopping and a little sightseeing. The Marais is one of Paris’ oldest neighborhoods and the home of chic boutiques in which I happily dropped some cash.

My original determination to avoid tourist landmarks quickly slid to the

wayside when I had the chance to visit Shakespeare and Company, the most famous English-language bookstore in the city.

I got a new book with the official store stamp on the cover and met the resident cat that lived upstairs. It was definitely worth braving the crowd.

Saturday night was dedicated to indulging in oysters, a northern France specialty and an easy way to feel sophisticated in a cosmopolitan city. I highly recommend ISTR’s oyster shot if you’re ever feeling inspired.

As I sat in a café Sunday, I couldn’t help but admit I didn’t want to leave. I love Aix-en-Provence, and I heartily believe it’s a better location to learn the language, but I’m eager to live in Paris.

It’s simultaneously the ultimate exaggeration of French culture and the easiest place in the country to be a foreigner because of how many of us there are.

Shakespeare and Company is the most famous English-language bookstore in Paris. Rachel Rosenstock visited the store during her weekend visit in Paris.

It’s almost an ostentatious place with how striking and beautiful every street is, how delicious even the smallest pastry is and how alive the history

of France is everywhere you turn.

It’s a city that doesn’t slow down for anyone, but if you enjoy the ride, you’ll never want to leave.

Alexis Gassion goes up for a layup on Wednesday against UMass Lowell. Gassion scored 15 points for IU’s victory against North Texas on Tuesday.

Hoosiers bounce back on road at North Texas

By Jake Thomer jjthomer@indiana.edu @jake_the_thomer

In its past three road games, IU women’s basketball has struggled to shoot higher than 40 percent from the field. With streaky three-point shooting and a rash of turnovers, the Hoosier offense simply wasn’t effective.

On Tuesday afternoon at North Texas, IU got back on track and shot a seasonhigh 64 percent from the field en route to a 94-64

win to move to 5-3 on the season.

It was one of the most efficient all-around offensive performances of the season for the Hoosiers, with assists on nearly half of their made shots and 43-percent shooting from deep. However, the way assistant coach Janese Banks saw things, the defense was the key for the win.

“I thought we had a good week of practice. Our focus was defense. We went hard defensively in practice,” Banks said. “I thought our

girls just really locked into the gameplan. They knew they needed this win. They knew we had to get going in the right direction.”

The defense came out strongest in the first half and carried the Hoosiers to a 13-0 run to begin the game. The Mean Green’s response was to cut the deficit to five points after one quarter, but another 20-4 IU run to end the half put IU up 4923 at the break.

It was a game of large runs. North Texas pieced together a 15-5 sequence

at the end of the first and a 12-0 run to end the third.

However, during the times when both teams were making shots, the Hoosiers simply made more.

Junior guard Tyra Buss led the way yet again for IU with 21 points, senior guard Alexis Gassion added 15, and junior forward Amanda Cahill collected a doubledouble with 15 points and 10 boards. The nagging turnover problem haunted IU again, though. A sloppy second half led IU to finish the game with 28 giveaways.

“North Texas is a good basketball team, and they play hard,” Banks said. “You knew there were going to be runs somewhere, but a lot of their runs came because we kept giving them the ball.”

Senior guard Kelsey Criner registered four steals and led North Texas in scoring with 17 points. The Mean Green fell to 2-6 on the year with Tuesday’s loss.

IU doesn’t play another true road game until the end of the month when it travels to Penn State for its first Big Ten game.

IU will play its first home game in more than two weeks Thursday when Northern Kentucky visits Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall for a 7 p.m. tipoff. Banks said the return home will be a welcome break from the constant travel of the past few weeks.

“I just cannot wait to be back home in front of our fans, because I know they miss us and we truly miss them,” Banks said. “It has been a tough stretch. It’s been good for us, but there’s nothing like going home.”

Robert Johnson: IU early season most valuable player

Gassion provides spark in crucial road win for IU

By Zain Pyarali

By Josh Eastern

zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali

jeastern@iu.edu | @JoshEastern

Junior guard Robert Johnson has done everything IU Coach Tom Crean has asked of him in the early going.

He’s just one of two Hoosiers to start all eight games this season and has brought the energy to every one of them. Crean even praised Johnson after the North Carolina game by saying he was on another level defensively.

The young guys have really looked up to Johnson as well. Freshman forward De’Ron Davis said Johnson is very important as a leader and player as they continue their development moving forward.

“Rob controls the tempo on the floor, and he controls everybody pretty much,” Davis said. “As a team, we’re working on our communication, but Rob really controls the tempo.”

Coming off a stretch during which IU played four games in eight days, Crean said Johnson and sophomore forwards Thomas Bryant and Juwan Morgan took the reins during practice throughout the week when taking more responsibility for their teammates.

In Johnson’s game, it was apparent.

At the beginning of the season, Crean talked about how it wasn’t going to be just one guy that replaced point guard Yogi Ferrell this season; rather, it would be a group of guys. With junior guard Josh Newkirk playing point guard the majority of the time, Johnson has set the tone with a defense-first mindset that turns into offense on the other end.

During the eight-day period, in which the Hoosiers went 4-0, Johnson averaged nearly 12 points and five rebounds per game. Against North Carolina, the Richmond, Virginia, native forced three steals in the first half to go along with 10 points as the

The Hoosiers got off to a 13-point lead to start the first quarter before it was quickly cut down to five.

At that point, the game could have gone either way, but IU senior guard Alexis Gassion scored the first six points of the second quarter and guided her squad the rest of the way.

The Hoosiers defeated North Texas, 94-64, Tuesday at the Super Pit behind an all-around performance from Gassion to snap their three-game road losing streak.

“They locked in and stuck to the game plan,” Assistant Coach Janese Banks said on the IU postgame show. “I thought we had a good week of practice.”

Junior Robert Johnson dribbles the ball down the court against Southeastern Missouri. IU defeated SEMO on Sunday, 83-55.

Hoosiers kept their feet on the gas against the Tar Heels and maintained a wire-towire lead in the game.

Keeping offenses scoreless for a long period of time was also a trend in both weekend games against SIU-Edwardsville and Southeast Missouri State. Johnson credits the Hoosiers’ communication.

“I think it was just a connectivity of ourselves on defense,” Johnson said. “The guys are really talking and active, especially in the one stretch on the first half. I think we set the tone early how we wanted to handle certain guys and take away tendencies.”

Not only did Johnson take away North Carolina guard Joel Berry’s tendencies last Wednesday, but Johnson and junior guard James Blackmon Jr. rebounded the ball efficiently against the Tar Heels. Crean emphasized guard rebounding heavily, and it’s starting to become a staple in the Hoosiers’ game plan.

Johnson and Blackmon combined for 15 boards against the Tar Heels, and during the next two games they combined for nearly 12 a game. Crean has found success with teams in the past when the guards hit

the glass, such as Ferrell, Victor Oladipo and Jordan Hulls, and that’s the trend the Hoosiers are heading toward now.

“That’s where we have to be successful. We’ve had good guard rebounders here,” Crean said. “Yogi was a very good guard rebounder, Vic was fantastic, more or less Jordan would go in there and get defense boards.

There’s no reason for us to have five guys the majority of the time under the foul line ready to rebound.”

After a busy week, IU won’t play its next game until Saturday at 4 p.m. against Houston Baptist, and then it will have to wait another week to play Butler in Indianapolis on Saturday, Dec. 17.

Johnson said he was proud of the way his teammates found energy throughout the week by being locked in to little things like shootarounds and film, and although they’ll play just two games in two weeks, they still have to prepare the same.

“It’s all about mindset still,” Johnson said. “Coming into practice and competing like it is a game — I think that’s the best way to stay sharp and not looking ahead and thinking about anything else but the next day.

Gassion has said she is trying to become more of a combo guard this season. Tuesday while playing against the Mean Green, she showed she is capable of doing a little bit of everything. Gassion finished the game with 15 points while grabbing four rebounds and dishing out five assists.

Once Gassion got the Hoosiers moving in the right direction to start the second quarter, she used plays that don’t show up in the box score to help her team.

She was at the forefront of a Hoosier defense that held North Texas to just 41 percent shooting.

“Our focus was defense,” Banks said. “We went hard, hard, hard defensively Saturday and Sunday in practice. I thought our

girls really locked into the game plan.”

Assistant Coach Rhet Wierzba said after the loss at North Carolina State the Hoosiers needed to start games with more energy and play like that throughout.

Tuesday, it was junior guard Tyra Buss and Gassion who were both sparks for getting the Hoosiers out to a fast 13-0 start.

Turnovers stymied that spark, and by game’s end IU had 28, but as the game went on, the Hoosiers were able to clean things up.

IU missed just 18 of 50 shots, and out-rebounded the Mean Green 44-14.

“Rebounding was another focus in practice,” Banks said. “We told them, ‘if you want to win on the road, you have to rebound.’”

FOOTBALL

COLUMN: Tom Allen will do great things at IU as head coach in the first place.

“He believed in me, and he gave me a charge when I came here to be the head coach of the defense, to change the culture on that side of the ball, and that’s what we did,” Allen said.

“These players believed. They play with amazing passion and toughness, and they’re relentless. I was so proud of the way they competed every single week in a very difficult schedule.”

Allen is going to bring what he infected the defense with to an offense that’s had an inconsistent season and was the reason why IU failed to win more games.

His identification of the problems — scoring in the red zone, running the ball and protecting the football — that ailed the unit is spot on.

He just has to figure out a way to fix them.

“I have a vision to create a culture of accountability, toughness and love,” Allen said. “I believe in positive conviction-driven leadership and the power of belief.

I challenged our defense to

IU Coach Tom Allen is the perfect man for the job.

Lost in the swirling chaos of the resignation of Kevin Wilson was the man whom IU Athletics Director Fred Glass tapped to lead the program moving forward.

Glass immediately knew he had his man in Allen, the wizard who turned IU’s defense from a laughingstock into the bedrock of the team.

The numbers are staggering. IU’s defense improved in every significant national category this season with nearly the same talent as the year before. The only major difference was Allen.

The players bought into what he was selling from day one. Allen brings a combination of passion and energy into coaching, and you can’t help but get motivated whenever you hear him speak. He’s part preacher, with his message of “Love each other” spreading like wildfire, and part enforcer.

His zeal for coaching is why he will be a good head coach and why Wilson brought him to Bloomington

embrace those qualities, and I will challenge our team to do the same.”

This job is extremely challenging because the Hoosiers play in the toughest division in college football, but Allen’s already done things no one reasonably could have expected in a single season.

The way to build a consistent program is to have backto-back great coaching hires.

Wilson was responsible for the heavy lifting and endured the slow growth that it took to get IU to two consecutive bowl games.

Allen gets to reap the rewards of what Wilson started while also bringing continuity to the program.

Allen could even bring IU to heights it hasn’t seen in decades, and when Glass likened it to when Butler hired Brad Stevens, he isn’t that far off.

Hiring Allen is still a bit risky. He doesn’t exactly have an exhaustive track record at

the Division 1 level, because he’s only been a coordinator for two years. However, he was a rising star in college football, and it was all but an eventuality that he would become a head coach

someday soon.

“He is a leader of men, which I think will transcend beyond the defense across this team and maybe the missing link, maybe the secret sauce to get us from be-

ing close to maybe getting over the hump a little more often,” Glass said.

Allen is more than capable of keeping IU on its ascent. aphussey@indiana.edu

» ABORTION

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 During his term as governor he signed eight anti-abortion bills, including HEA 1337, which gained national attention because of its additional ban on abortions on the basis of race, gender or genetic anomalies such as Down syndrome.

It was the most restrictive abortion bill in American history.

While campaigning in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Pence told the crowd the new administration plans to appoint a conservative Supreme Court and send the Roe v.

Wade decision to the “ash heap of history where it belongs.”

Now that Pence’s platform has reached the White House, he may finally get what he wants.

With its organization in the crosshairs of one of the most hotly contested social issues, Planned Parenthood officials are down but not out.

“You got to talk to yourself to even get out of bed right now, and we do,” Cockrum said. “We have to get up, and we have to put one foot in front of the other, and we have to motivate each other, and we have to push one another.”

The week after the election, Planned Parenthood reported a 1,700-percent increase in online donations, totaling $25,000 in the first seven days.

On Giving Tuesday, the organization delivered 4,700 thank-you letters to Pence’s Indiana office for the donations made on his behalf.

The night before the delivery, Deborah Meader, Bloomington’s Planned Parenthood volunteer coordinator, organized a thank-you night for Planned Parenthood and All-Options Pregnancy Center volunteers and supporters.

“This is because we have a reality TV star as our president, and I’m really stressed about it,” Meader said.

All-Options is part of the national pregnancy and parenting nonprofit Backline. The Bloomington location is the only brick-andmortar full-spectrum pregnancy center in the country.

It offers peer counseling, diaper assistance, abortion funding and referral services.

Volunteers, counselors and local politicians alike shared one declarative statement as a response to the threat to Roe v. Wade.

“We will not go back,” Meader

said. “I refuse.”

A Trump-Pence administration is one more battle in the war for reproductive rights activists. Activists have repeatedly described the election as a wake-up call, not a turning point.

The biggest challenge reproduction rights activists face is the generational gap, said Patti Stauffer, vice president of policy, strategy and compliance at Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky.

“Those before Roe understand what it looks like and are very, very terrified that there is a path to that again,” Stauffer said.

The current generation of activists and feminists have no point of reference of what access was like before Roe v. Wade and therefore never thought their right to an abortion would be threatened, Stauffer said.

“We’re trying to encourage and motivate those who haven’t known the difficult environment, but I think now, certainly with the election of Trump, people understand that stuff can happen when you’re not paying attention,” she said.

Stauffer, who was the president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Kentucky before the organization’s 2013 merge with Indiana, works not only to educate and mobilize coalitions but also to play defense against state legislators who propose restrictive bills before they make it to the Statehouse.

Nisly is not alone in his prolife agenda. The Indiana Right to Life PAC endorsed Senator-elect Todd Young, R-Indiana, and seven candidates, including Representative-elect Trey Hollingsworth, R-District 9, for the House of Representatives.

Indiana bills continue to set the stage for other conservative legislation and raise concerns that the political landscape Pence created in Indiana may be spread across the nation through Trump’s administration.

New Jersey Republicans said Trump’s pro-life stance encouraged them to move forward on the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, a bill banning abortions after 20 weeks and claiming fetuses can feel pain at that point.

New Jersey would become the 15th state to pass the bill.

On Tuesday, Ohio’s Republican-controlled Senate voted to pass the Heartbeat Bill, which would ban abortions after a fetal heartbeat was detected, which

“I think now, certainly with the election of Trump, people understand that stuff can happen when you’re not paying attention.”

Patti Stauffer, vice president of policy, strategy and compliance at Planned Parenthood

generally happens six weeks into a pregnancy.

Indiana’s Heartbeat Act was proposed in both the House and Senate but never passed last year.

This week Texas lawmakers approved new rules requiring abortion providers to bury fetal remains. The rules will go into effect Dec. 19. This bill mirrors the restrictions of Indiana’s HEA 1337, which was found to be unconstitutional by Judge Tanya Walton Pratt this summer.

In the 43 years since Roe v.

Wade, 1,074 state-enacted abortion restrictions have passed, according to the Guttmacher Institute. Of those, 27 percent of abortion restrictions occurred since 2010.

The loyalty these conservative politicians feel to their constituency, their party and the ultra-conservative movement is a tough barrier to break through, Stauffer said.

The “alt-right” movement, which has gained national attention after the appointment of Steve Bannon as chief strategist and senior counselor in the White House, didn’t form in a day or even a decade, Stauffer said.

Organizations such as Planned Parenthood considered how this political phenomenon would fuel pro-life groups, Stauffer said. However, Planned Parenthood let the ‘alt-right’ take control of the conversation for too long.

As a result, Stauffer said, the strategy has changed. Instead of frontal attacks, PPINK will continue to try to block bills and build a coalition.

With what Stauffer calls a mindful shift in strategy organizations such as Planned Parenthood can prepare for what feels like the inevitable — a challenge to Roe v. Wade.

“Some state is going to have to move a bill that will ultimately be the test case to Roe v. Wade, I think that Indiana would love to be that state,” Stauffer said. “Certainly Pence would have loved for us to be that state.”
