he audience will journey to turn-of-the-20th-century Japan in IU Opera’s production of “Madama Butterfly,” which opens Friday at the Musical Arts Center. The opera, composed by famed Italian Giacomo Puccini, details the emotional journey of Cio-Cio-san, a geisha in Nagasaki, Japan, and her marriage to an American naval officer. Cio-Cio-san roughly translates to “Madame Butterfly.” According to Operabase, an opera statistics website, it is the fifth most performed show in the world. Puccini ranks second on the list of most performed composers on the same site. Second-year master’s student Liz Culpepper, who sings the part of Suzuki in Friday’s cast, said the incongruent level of devotion between Butterfly and her husband, Pinkerton, plays a huge role in character development throughout the show. Culpepper said her character acts as a caretaker for Butterfly when Pinkerton leaves and is not heard from
again. Suzuki protects the show’s lead from exterior threats, be they emotional or of another nature. At first, Pinkerton displays good intentions to Butterfly, which turn out to be deception. While Butterfly believes the marriage is based on permanent love, Pinkerton merely takes advantage of Japan’s loose divorce laws and leaves. “Butterfly gets really upset when Suzuki makes any sort of mention of ‘I’m not so sure he’s coming back,’” Culpepper said. “She doesn’t want to believe it.” Culpepper said there is a delicate balance when trying not to disrespect another culture, but what she likes about stage director Lesley Koenig’s creative choices is her focus on characters as individuals, regardless of culture. Third-year doctoral student Mathilda Edge, who sings the lead role of Butterfly on Friday, said it was a fun but challenging experience to learn more about Japanese and geisha culture. She said at the time the opera takes place, geisha were seen as the ultimate polite and proper women, with calculated hand and body gestures. SEE BUTTERFLY, PAGE 6

The first time IU played Northwestern, the Hoosiers controlled the Wildcats. They outshot them 28-3 but ended up settling for a 0-0 draw. This time around, IU will be looking to get back at Northwestern. IU is coming off an important 2-1 win against Michigan State to grab the No. 2 seed in the Big Ten Tournament. Now, the Hoosiers will look to carry some of that momentum into the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals. The first time around, the Wildcats sat behind the ball for most of the match and absorbed a lot of the Hoosiers’ pressure. However, Northwestern has knocked off some premier opponents, including Notre Dame, in the past four games and IU Coach Todd Yeagley said this team is different from the first time around. “They’re playing a bit differently, but I think they’ll still put quite a few numbers behind the ball,” Yeagley said. “Their shape is different, and they’re confident. Beating Notre Dame is a tough task, and they beat a good Penn State team, so they’re coming off a couple of good results.” The postseason is now underway and every game moving forward is an elimination game. Because of that, Yeagley said he would work his side a bit less to keep them fresh come Sunday. IU sophomore midfielder Francesco Moore picked up a knock in Sunday’s match, and IU junior defender Grant Lillard is also not feeling 100 percent. However, both should be good to go for Sunday’s quarterfinal. The mood around the team is good, IU sophomore defender Andrew Gutman said, and the Hoosiers will look to keep their good form as the stakes get higher heading into the postseason. “We’re playing well, coming off of a big win in Michigan State,” Gutman said. “We’re all happy, all playing well, so we’re excited to get the Big Ten Tournament started.” On the offensive end, the Hoosiers have started to find their stride.

More than 50 people gathered at The Warehouse at 1525 S. Rogers St. in Bloomington. They were talking as a part of Take Back Your Town, an event designed to discuss opioid addiction and solutions to the prevalence of drugs in Bloomington. “We don’t think it happens in our neighborhood,” Director at Meadows Hospital Pete Link said. “But guess what, folks? It’s here.” Link was one of several experts who spoke at the event to educate people on mental health, addiction and legal concerns. Monroe County Sheriff Brad Swain said, with the construction of I-69, the number of drugs in the city of Bloomington is only going to grow as time passes. Swain said events like this will help to educate people on the situation in Bloomington. The organizer of the event, Karen Little, said she did not envision Take Back Your Town as a onetime thing, but rather as a continual conversation about drug addiction. One in seven people suffer from addiction, and there needs to
be a dialogue about it, Little said. “Together we can take our town back from addiction,” Little said. Many of the speakers had stories of addiction, either personally or in their families. Link said his mother was an alcoholic for years until she found service in Monroe County that could help with her addiction. He said addiction happens to everyone and is not an issue for only homeless or poor people. “This doesn’t just affect the homeless,” Link said. “It affects us all.” Brandon Drake from Keystone Interventions is a drug and alcohol counselor, and he said he experiences addiction through his work. “I see this stuff every day,” Drake said. “I see this on a ground level.” Drake said he remembered a few weeks ago when he was called and asked to check up on a former client of Keystone. That former client was found dead at his computer from a drug overdose. Drake said his own path to drug addiction began when he was 14 years old. He had a headache and reached into his mother’s SEE DRUG, PAGE 6

She has to get ready for class, make sure her children get on the bus, drive to Bloomington and go to four classes before she has time. Stevens, 30, has three sons, ages 6, 7 and 8. She earned her general equivalency degree when she was 16 in an effort to get away from the clique mentality in her peer group, she said. Stevens worked odd jobs for several years before deciding to get a degree. “Around the time that I was really starting to get serious and considering to come back to education and make my résumé stronger, I got pregnant,” Stevens said. “I put everything on hold until my childbearing was done.” Stevens attended Vincennes University-Jasper for a couple of years but stopped because of an issue with her financial aid. She decided to come to IU based on her brother’s recommendation, she said. “This is my first semester back after a year of sitting back, and it’s nerve-racking,” Stevens said. Stevens plans on pursuing a major in English and minors in ethics and philosophy and would eventually like to attend law school,

I A family for the kids IUDM advisers personally connected to cause By Lydia Gerike lgerike@umail.iu.edu | @lydi_yeah
t may not be Christmas, but it sure comes close. Just like he has almost every week for the past four years, Media School associate professor Andrew Weaver was on campus by 7:30 a.m. Wednesday to plan for the 36 hours he said his sons love more than any other time of the year, besides the day they wake up to find presents from Santa under the tree. As faculty co-adviser of the IU Dance Marathon, the annual fundraiser for Riley Hospital for Children, he especially needed to be there for the first November meeting. It was the last one before the group began setup for IUDM 2016, which starts 8
p.m. Friday. Like the rest of the IUDM dancers and organizers, Weaver does it “For the Kids.” Unlike most others, the child that started his involvement with IUDM was his own. Seven years ago, three months before he was due, Weaver’s oldest son, Owen, came into the world before his body could survive outside the womb. Because of Riley Hospital, he is still alive. For Weaver, the first 24 hours of his son’s life seem like a bad dream. Although it feels like a lifetime ago, he said he still remembers the jarring silence that filled the room that night. “There’s no sound, there’s
no noise, there’s no baby crying,” Weaver said. “We didn’t know if he was even alive.” * * * When Owen was born, he had no heartbeat, weighed less than 2 pounds and was the size of a Barbie doll. “It’s not like the kind of experience you imagine to have with your first baby,” said Nicole Martins, Weaver’s wife and associate professor in the Media School. After his birth at only 28 weeks, Owen was airlifted to the Riley neonatal intensive care unit where he would spend the next four months. SEE IUDM, PAGE 3

Mary Embry, senior lecturer in the Department of Apparel Merchandising and Interior Design, speaks at a discussion hosted by Oxfam and BuyGood about fashion and its environmental impact Thursday night in the School of Global and International Studies.
Groups discuss sustainable fashion By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@iu.edu | @SarahVerschoor
Zara, Forever 21, Gap and Joe Fresh are popular stores that produce cheap, fashionable clothing. But on Thursday night in the Global and International Studies Building auditorium, two campus organizations joined together to question the cost of cheap and trendy clothes produced by overseas labor. Oxfam, a student group focused on global hunger, poverty and social issues, and BuyGood, a student organization dedicated to bringing fair trade to IU, partnered to view the film “The True Cost” and discuss quick fashion and its social and environmental effects globally. The film addressed the 2013 garment factory collapse in Dhaka, Bangladesh, which killed over 1,000 people; the protest in Phnom Penh, Cam-
bodia, that advocated for an increased wage for factory workers and ended in a violent clash with police; and the pollution of the Ganges River in Kanpur, India. Then, Apparel Merchandising Professor Mary Embry and Master’s student Molly Keogh contributed their expertise to the issues addressed in the film. “Fashion does play a critical role in identity,” Embry said. “I live in a culture where I have 20 T-shirts in my closet, more than one would ever need. These are hard questions personally and collectively to face.” Embry said fashion is the number one industry that exploits labor and is number two in environmental pollution, a key issue presented in the movie. However, Keogh said the film did not talk about one important issue: a solution to the labor, social and environ-
mental issues in the fashion industry. “What we didn’t see here was any kind of conversations about solutions,” Keogh said. “It’s necessary to be aware how intense and terrible the things that happened are. It’s easy to feel hopeless. ‘I’m one person in Bloomington. We have a mall.’” Keogh has addressed the issues of fast fashion by starting her own fashion company, Osei-Duro, out of Los Angeles and Accra, Ghana. She emphasizes having direct relationships with everyone she works with. “There is too much product, and we don’t need this much stuff,” Keogh said. “It allows that kind of distance. It allows Walmart not to know where their clothes are made.” Esmeralda Martinez, a member of BuyGood, helped organize the event because she feels it is important for people to be aware of con-
sumer culture. Martinez is studying environmental science and hopes to raise awareness of the consequences the industry can have on the environment through this event. “Considering how big the fashion industry is, it is in a huge way poisoning Earth,” she said. “We should try to act on it.” Blessing Olumoroti, a student in comparative literature, came to the event because she said it sounded interesting and she has personal interest in the cause, even though it doesn’t directly connect to her major. “I am really into trying to find outlets that make clothes sustainably,” she said. Embry and Keogh talked about the most sustainable brands for college students to buy. “Small is better,” Embry said. “Transparent is better. Local buys are better, to me.”
IU’s Center on Community Living and Careers created a new report on employment services and other support from disabilities service providers, according to a Nov. 2 press release. According to the report, 27 percent of individuals represented in the survey were employed in jobs within the community. Fewer than one percent were self-employed, and 25 percent were working in facility-based, segregated work environments, according to the release. There was also an increase in the percentage of individuals who were not working but were participating in a day program, increasing from 19 to 23 percent since 2011.

people in the world. “There’s only 7 billion people on the earth right now, which means every one of you is important,” Gooder said. Gooder went on to discuss his personal experience with God. He told students he had not had a falling-out with his faith.
He hadn’t dealt drugs or the like, he said. He shared his story about a time his freshman year, though, that was moving to him. Gooder’s lived in McNutt Quad freshman year. When another guy from the dorm

Once there, Martins said he continued to struggle every day, even with Riley’s best technology. “We had no guarantees he was going to make it,” Martins said. “You just had to be grateful for the day you had with him and hope that you’d get another one.” Martins and Weaver said they remember watching their son struggle with jaundice, infections, potential blindness, hernias, respiratory issues, a heart valve that wouldn’t close properly and bleeding in his brain. The health issues are normal for premature newborns, Martins said. At six months into a pregnancy, the baby’s still-developing body is unprepared to deal with the atmosphere of the outside world. “It seemed like every day there was something else,” Weaver said. Because of Owen’s fragile immune system, the couple said it was weeks before they were allowed to hold their son. Despite the lack of contact, someone was with Owen for at least nine hours every day. Martins, who was on medical leave through the end of the semester, said she was often the one next to the incubator. It was the Riley staff that helped her through that difficult time, she said. “They are a part of my family,” Martins said. “They

classes, Martins said. Once the student found out about Owen’s story, she told his parents to contact IUDM and they would be invited to participate as the family of a Riley patient. “The kids can’t believe it’s basically this party just for them,” Martins said. Owen and Elliot are not exceptions to the excitement. They usually know IUDM is coming, but Martins said as of Wednesday, she had yet to tell the boys. She knew they wouldn’t be able to sleep the rest of the week if she did. Each year, somewhere between 60 and 80 Riley families come to the dance marathon, Weaver said. Some of them come back for decades, but there are
always first-timers there as well. After their initial experience, Martins said her family became involved in other fundraising events outside of the dance marathon the organization puts on throughout the year. Four years ago, she and Weaver were asked to become co-advisers for IUDM, and they eagerly accepted it. “It’s not a chore,” Martins said. “We absolutely love it.” Some of the work they do is working toward more faculty involvement and other similar tasks, Martins said. Weaver said he doesn’t even put in that much work and lets the students take charge instead. “Our main role as advis-
er is to stay out of their way,” Weaver said. For the couple, the students’ work helps remind them how many people care about children who face medical challenges. Martin said the students show energy all year because they are so dedicated to raising money and creating a great dance marathon event. As a Riley family, Weaver and Martins know the money raised by IUDM, which last year was $3.8 million, contributes to necessary research that leads to more lives like Owen’s being saved every day. “Every single year, we are amazed all over again at what they can do when they come together like this,” Weaver said.
made all the difference.” The nurses would take lunch to her or make her go outside and take a walk if she was having a hard time at the hospital that day. At night, when Martins and Weaver were at home, a nurse would send them updates. When Owen reached 3 pounds, the nurses threw him a party because it meant he could sleep in an open crib and finally wear baby clothes. “I don’t know how they can have this unending source of compassion and love,” Martins said. Martins and Weaver said they are still friends with their primary care nurses. It was also because of the Riley staff that Martins and
Weaver felt empowered to have a second child, they said. Martins said she had to go in every week to get a shot that helped prevent a premature birth, but in the end, Elliot’s birth was normal. Today the parents say both boys are perfectly healthy. Owen is now a vibrant 7-year-old healthy enough to attend public school for second grade. “He could lick the floor, and he’d be fine,” Martins said.
a lot of people act about Christianity. “God died for us, but some people don’t choose to follow him,” Gooder said. “We continually turn against God, even though we know what he’s done for us.” Gooder said he also has trouble with his faith sometimes, but he told students in the end, he always returns to Christ. “You’re so important, I can’t stress that enough,” Gooder said. “You’re seen, God is seeing you, he doesn’t skip over you.” Gooder has been involved with Cru since he first came to IU. Cru organizations on other campuses have done similar events, and the IU branch decided to choose Jonny to speak because of his earnestness.
“We chose him because of his humility,” Cru campus director Mark Johnson said. “He naturally has just an authenticity when he talks to people. Jonny kind of came to the top of the list because of his character and how we felt like he embodied a lot of Christ-like character.” Cru members’ goal was to share their faith with more people on campus, and the “I Agree With Jonny” campaign brought a lot of attention to the group. “It was really about mobilizing in our movement to get passionate about what the outreach was about,” Cru student leader Jake Peters said. “We want to talk to people about Jesus.

World-renowned philosopher to speak about consciousness By Hussain Ather sather@umail.iu.edu | @SHussainAther
When he’s not sailing his boats or preparing apple cider on his farm in Maine, Daniel Dennett ponders big questions: What is consciousness? How did it emerge in humans? How is it related to the brain and mind? Dennett, philosophy professor at Tufts University, will give two lectures at IU for an undergraduate audience. The lectures are titled “From Bacteria to Bach and Back: The Evolution of Minds” and “A Magician’s View of Consciousness” and will
take place Nov. 10 and 11, respectively. The lectures will be from 4 to 6 p.m. in the Whittenberger Auditorium of the Indiana Memorial Union. A founding father of the philosophy of cognitive science, Dennett tackles the idea of consciousness. “He works at the interconnections between biology, psychology, computer science, neuroscience and philosophy,” Chair of the Department of Philosophy Gary Ebbs said. “Anyone interested in the connections between the fields should attend.”
Dennett has studied how consciousness emerged as a result of the physical, scientific workings of the brain. Referred to as one of the Four Horseman of New Atheism, Dennett has also written on religion, evolution and naturalistic explanations of religious belief. “He’s not afraid to ruffle people’s feathers,” said Colin Allen, provost professor of history and philosophy of science. “This makes him sort of entertaining and engaging.” Despite these controversial topics, Dennett is very approachable, funny and

witty, Ebbs said. “He’s a very friendly philosopher,” Allen said. “He likes engaging with students at all levels.” Dennett wrote a story called “Where Am I?” about being in a body that is controlled by a brain in a vat. The narrator wonders where he is — in a vat or a body — before his body malfunctions. “Dennett has written some articles that have captured the popular imagination,” Ebbs said. “His story, ‘Where am I?’ uses vivid examples to make deep philosophical points fun.” Dennett believes the best
way to explain philosophy is by using concrete examples whenever possible, said Douglas Hofstadter, distinguished professor of cognitive science. Hofstadter discussed his Pulitzer Prize-winning book, “Gödel Escher Bach: An Eternal Braid,” on cognition with Dennett in 1979. “When he first read about ‘Gödel Escher Bach,’ he said he thought it was ‘Californian New Age’ stuff, as if I was some kind of ignoramus who was just slapping things together to make a big buck,” Hofstadter said. Dennett grew fond of
Hofstadter’s work, and the two edited “The Mind’s I,” a collection of science fictionlike essays on the nature of the mind, in 1982. “He’s very generous with his time,” Allen said. “He’s very happy to be an educator.” Elucidating mysteries and approaching questions through philosophy and science, Dennett is a clear thinker, provocative inquirer and very influential, Ebbs said. “Do not attend this lecture if you prefer to keep consciousness mysterious,” Dennett said.

Some offices not part of straight-ticket votes By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman
Voters should be aware the county council at-large, along with school board and public questions, are not included in straight-ticket voting. The school board is never traditionally included because the candidates are nonpartisan and public questions require a yes-orno answer from the voter. However, this is the first election in which county council at-large will not be included with straight-ticket voting.
“The issue was voter intent,” said Tree Martin, chief deputy of the Monroe County Clerk’s Office. Voters would mark straight ticket and then also mark the county council at-large section of the ballot, which led to over- and under-voting. Over- and under-voting is when a voter incorrectly fills out his or her ballot, which leads to more or fewer votes being cast than allowed. When over- or under-voting occurs, scanning machines kick back the ballots. These kickbacks affected about 10 percent of ballots, Martin estimated.
This led the Indiana State Senate to pass Senate Bill 61, which separated the straight ticket from county council at-large, Martin said. “Straight-party and selected voting were not tabulating,” said Cheryl Munson, a current member of the county council at large and a Democratic incumbent in this election. Voters can still vote straight-ticket for the party of their choice; however, voters may select up to three candidates under county council at-large. Munson, along with her current county council atlarge members and Demo-
cratic incumbent running mates Geoff McKim and Lee Jones, have promoted the voting change as a part of their campaign. The Democratic Party has also sent out brochures and postcards informing voters about the adjustment. “The postcards say ‘Vote D plus three,’” Munson said, with the “d” representing Democrat and the three representing the three Democratic Party county council at-large candidates. William Ellis, chairman of the Monroe County Republican party, said local Republicans are informing
voters over the phone and at all forums that straight-ticket voting does not include the one Republican county council at-large candidate, Hal Turner. Turner’s motto of “only vote for one” reminds Republican voters to vote for their candidate, Ellis said. Unless the state legislature requires the voting machine companies to upgrade their software, county council at-large will continue to be separate from straight-party voting in upcoming elections, Munson said. However, upgrading the
system is expensive, Martin said. She said though paper ballots cost the county about $70,000, upgrading to a new voting system would be at least a few hundred thousand dollars, so it is unlikely that the upgrade will happen in the near future. Paper ballots are additionally hard to rig and do not fail, she said. “They’re the fairest thing that will ever happen,” Martin said. She said until the voting system is upgraded, voters should read the ballot closely and note what straight-ticket voting does and does not cover.
Bloomington Green Party experiences growth surge By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman
The Bloomington Green Party’s growth has surged in 2016. This is because the divisive nature of this election and the rise of politicians such as Democratic Party candidate Bernie Sanders and Green Party candidate Jill Stein, said Dakota Hudelson, a co-facilitator for the Bloomington Green Party. After Wikileaks released emails revealing Democratic Party officials were working against Sanders, many Democrats felt betrayed and turned to the Green Party on a national and local level.
“The Green Party represents an alternative party to the left,” Hudelson said. Chuck Rogers, a member of the Bloomington Green Party, said he was a Democrat his whole life until Sanders dropped out. Rogers, 63, said he could not see himself voting for Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump, so he switched to support Jill Stein and the Green Party. Many voters feel similarly. In 2012, Stein received .4 percent of the vote, or about 470,000 votes, according to Ballotpedia. However, in 2016 Stein is polling higher than ever before at about 2.1 percent, according to Real Clear Politics, which averages the poll number from
sources such as The Economist/YouGov, Fox News, Rasmussen Reports, ABC News/Washington Post Tracking and others. Bloomington is a progressive, liberal town in need of the Green Party because the Democratic Party is oligarchic and corporate, according to the local party’s manifesto. Founded in 1984, the Green Party supports progressive causes such as preventing global climate change, grassroots democracy, social justice and equity and advancing world peace. The Green Party does not accept any corporate or political action committee donations and does not collaborate with lobbyists, Hudel-
son said. Every local Green Party branch must also have two leaders known as cofacilitators. However, only one of these co-leaders can identify as a cis-male, or a male assigned male at birth. This is to promote diversity, Hudelson said. “The cis white male has dominated American politics since its inception,” Hudelson said. “But we tend to screw things up.” When an organization is led by a single group, the group is begging to miss things, Hudelson said. The local party has worked to spread the word about their movement through tabling at the Farmer’s Market, organizing literature drops throughout
Bloomington and gathering people to talk about the election and how to write in Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein. However, there is still a resistance to the Green Party because people are afraid of splitting the Democratic Party vote in the presidential election, which would allow Donald Trump to win, Hudelson said. He said this problem could be solved by passing rank voting, which is a major platform of the Green Party. Rank voting is a voting system in which voters choose their candidates in order of preference. While the party growth has surged because of the upcoming election, Marc Bogonovich, a party mem-
ber, said in an email. However, the party is more interested in building long-term support by running candidates in local elections in the future. The Bloomington Green Party plans to collaborate with the local Libertarian Party on ending the drug war and passing ranked choice voting in Bloomington and Monroe County, Bogonovich said in an email. The Green Party will also begin to tackle issues such as homelessness and sex worker rights in Bloomington. “We’re not interested in big money, we’re interested in the people and making real change,” Hudelson said.

Ken Beckley, the retired CEO of the IU Alumni Association and Bloomington resident, recently published his second novel, “An Act of Frustration,” about one man’s dissatisfaction with a stagnant Congress. Beckley has had many careers in his life, including a TV journalist and a marketing professional. But being a novelist has been one of his desires for more than a decade, and after retiring from the Alumni Association, he decided to make his dream a reality. Beckley had spent his entire professional career writing from fact, and he wanted to challenge himself by seeing if he could also write fiction. “My professional life was
that of a communicator, oral as well as written, and I always wrote from fact, whether as a journalist or in public relations or marketing,” Beckley said. “I never took a class in creative writing or read a book about how to write a novel. I just believed that, knowing how to write, I could develop fiction.” Beckley summarized his new book as a small town hardware store owner being so frustrated with gridlocked Congress that he decides to do something about it. This man, Charlie Simpson, gets his fellow business owners to help him with a non-partisan effort to defeat their district congressman. Unexpectedly, this movement goes viral and sweeps the nation. The idea is fueled by murder, and the election results at the end are astonishing, Beckley said.
Beckley was inspired to write about an inactive Congress after hearing for years about Congress not getting any laws or bills passed in Washington, D.C. Beckley wanted to write a story about how one man could end up affecting all of United States Congress through his actions in an Indiana small town. “I thought, ‘what if I wrote a novel that would be hopefully entertaining and certainly an enjoyable reading in which I took a scenario maybe to the extreme?’ where someone decided to do something about Congress through the 2016 elections, and it resulted in something astonishing happening,” he said. For “An Act of Frustration,” Beckley described his writing process as beginning with an outline and then creating a routine where he works for
hours at a time every morning researching the environment that his book will eventually take place in. The novel took him a year to write and is about 100 pages long. Beckley intended for his book to be a quick read, a “maybe a one or two night read or an airplane flight read.” However, Beckley was quick to say that he did not purposefully end the novel at 100 pages — it just felt like a natural stopping point to the story. “I think what I enjoyed so much about this was developing this ‘what-if’ scenario,” Beckley said. “It was enjoyable developing that scenario. It’s probably pretty far fetched, but at the same time I think the pent up feelings of a lot of voters come out through Charlie Simpson.”
Nonprofit raising money to equip ISP cars with AED From IDS Reports
Indiana nonprofit Bolt for the Heart is raising money for police car automatic external defibrillators through a virtual race open to anyone. Last year, Indiana State Police paired with BFTH to promote the nonprofit’s Thanksgiving Day 5K Run/ Walk in Carmel to raise
money to get AEDs into state police cars. An AED is used in cases of sudden cardiac arrest to restart a person’s heart. According to BFTH’s website, sudden cardiac arrest kills 335,000 people each year. Ninety-five percent of people who experience sudden cardiac arrest die because defibrillation and CPR occur too late. Last year’s 5K generated
enough money to outfit 55 cars. The cars with AEDs patrol the state’s more rural counties. The Thanksgiving Day 5K Run/Walk will still take place in Carmel this year, but the nonprofit is also promoting a virtual 5K where participants walk or run on their own time at any place. The entry fee is $20 and those who are not interested in running or walking
are encouraged to use the site to make a donation. Virtual racing began Tuesday and will continue until the end of December. All proceeds will go to outfitting more ISP cars with AEDs. For more information or to make a donation, visit boltfortheheart.com/events/ carmel-5k-runwalk. Lyndsay Jones

Thompson now has eight goals on the season. Yeagley said the Hoosiers have filled the gap left by Femi Hollinger-Janzen’s departure but still thinks there are a few more goals out there from others. The name he mentioned was senior midfielder Phil Fives. Fives has two assists this season but hasn’t found the back of the net, yet he still thinks highly of his chances to put one away.
“I think there have been a lot of chances for me. Some just haven’t fallen my way,” Fives said. “Just need a little bit more focus in the attacking third. He only said one or two? I think a couple more.” The mood around the team is light, and they will be looking to carry that into Sunday’s match against the Wildcats. If this time around is anything like the first, the chances should be there. Now the Hoosiers just have to stay in their goal-scoring form and put one away. “We’re excited for postseason play, and we’re in good form and scoring some goals — got a good emotional win,” Yeagley said. “I really like where we are heading into the postseason.”

that homework isn’t necessary, so we’re trying to instill that in them,” Stevens said. “Homework is absolutely crucial. You can’t skip anything. You have to go above and beyond.” Although Stevens believes getting an education is crucial to her success, her family members tell her that she waited too long to come back to school and that at 30 years old, it’s too late, she said. “I feel a huge amount of urgency to get this done,” Stevens said. “I want to be competitive with my agemates, and I’m not.”

REVENGE ON RUTGERS IU travels to New Jersey to face slumping Rutgers squad By Jordan Guskey jguskey@indiana.edu | @JordanGuskey
A year ago IU had a 25-point secondhalf lead against Rutgers at home in Memorial Stadium. Chests puffed out, the Hoosiers appeared to be on their way to their first Big Ten win of the season. Then all hell broke loose. IU’s special teams unit broke down. Its offense, then led by Nate Sudfeld, became ineffective and turnover-prone. Rutgers’ offense could do no wrong, ended every drive with points and finished IU off with a 26-yard field goal as time expired. The Scarlet Knights sent the Hoosiers home with a 55-52 Homecoming loss. The film from that contest isn’t as useful, due to a coaching change for Rutgers, but the majority of Hoosiers who played in that emotional loss are back. However, IU Coach Kevin Wilson stressed this game won’t be about last year’s disappointment. “We are looking at them this year and us this week, for what it’s worth,” Wilson said. “I mean, it’s not a revenge. There’s no, there’s no — to me, every year, every game, every team, every week’s different.” IU has yet to beat Rutgers. The two
teams have only ever faced off twice. Both matchups have happened since the latter joined the Big Ten, and both ended with Rutgers on top. This season’s matchup is supposed to be different. IU, 4-4, 2-3 in conference, welcomes a 2-6 Rutgers squad that has dropped each of its five Big Ten matchups thus far. The Scarlet Knights are last in the Big Ten in scoring offense and defense, total offense, rush defense, pass offense, and kickoff coverage. IU sits behind Rutgers in only a few statistical categories. Even off a win against Maryland that featured a reinvigorated rushing offense and flashes of brilliance on defense, IU Coach Kevin Wilson said he is skeptical. “We have not been a team that handles success well,” Wilson said. “Going on the road is hard. Winning Big Ten games is hard, and we had some things Saturday that, if we don’t fix and take out of our football, will haunt us. It will be a strong challenge.” Rutgers enters the game off a bye week and a near-victory against Minnesota, 6-2, 3-2 in conference, in Minneapolis. The Scarlet Knights had a one-point lead late in the fourth quarter before a 28-yard field goal with fewer than 10 seconds left gave
the Golden Gophers the victory. Wilson’s focus on this game is in the trenches. After a few weeks of less-thanstellar play, the Hoosier offensive line was hailed after the win against Maryland for providing the basis for IU’s 400-plus rushing yards. The defensive line is causing more havoc as well and has continued its game-to-game improvement. “The game is won up front,” Wilson said in a video on iuhoosiers.com. “We can be a spread offense. We can throw it a lot. We can tempo it, and they can do the same thing, but if you can control the line of scrimmage, you have a good chance.” Wilson is also looking for the IU to get off to a fast start, which it wasn’t able to do in its most recent loss on the road at Northwestern. If IU’s unable to do so, it puts the team in a hole IU was only able to climb out of against FIU and Michigan State. “It really is just about execution,” Wilson said in the video. “It would be great to start out executing early. If we do, we have to keep it going. If we do not execute early, we have to find a way to keep it going. We have to take care of the ball, we have to take care of the quarterback, and we have to play 60 minutes on the road.”

Young talent to be on display in final exhibition By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali
Devonte Green is already making a name for himself, and the freshman guard hasn’t even played a regular season game yet for the Hoosiers. The freshman from North Babylon, New York, dropped 17 points on 7 of 9 shooting from the field in the exhibition opener against Hope College while playing with a mixture of different lineups. Green said he definitely feels like he belongs after practicing with his teammates all summer, and IU Coach Tom Crean will continue to mix up his guys on the floor in the final exhibition against Bellarmine on Saturday. “I wouldn’t read anything into any of the lineups. It could change again on Saturday,” Crean said. “To me it’s about having as many multi-dimensional, versatile guys that can play in numerous positions for us.” This is the second consecutive season that IU welcomes Bellarmine to Assembly Hall for an exhibition matchup. Last season, Bellarmine played IU to an 11-point game. This year they’re ranked preseason No. 3 in Division II. Bellarmine is coming off a single-digit loss to Cincinnati in its first exhibition game and will play IU on Saturday before ending its preseason slate against Louisville on Monday. Crean said it came down to Bellarmine agreeing to play on this date to make this game happen because of IU’s departure for
Hawaii to play Kansas in the season opener. “It’s a very good program. They’ll play extremely well, and we’re not used to doing things with a team two years in a row,” Crean said. “We have a lot of respect for them.” As Crean mixes up the lineup Saturday, Green could very well see more playing time with some of the upperclassmen. After not seeing the floor in the first seven minutes against Hope College, the freshman showcased his talents on both ends of the court in just 13 minutes. In his short time at IU, Green has been praised by his teammates for his commitment to defense. Crean said his defense, along with his precision and execution, was one of the main reasons he was offered a scholarship to IU. “I just remember him starting from the summer and just competing,” junior guard James Blackmon Jr. said about Green. “He’s just aggressive offensively and defensively, so that opens up things for him and everyone else.” Fellow freshmen guard Curtis Jones and forward De’Ron Davis may also get more looks on the court after Jones dropped seven points in just 14 minutes of play and Davis had six points in nine minutes. Crean said Green and Jones are very interchangeable for the Hoosiers and he hopes they can get to the point where they make everyone else around them on the floor better. Davis is recovering from a mi-

nor Achilles strain after getting to campus late in the offseason. Crean said the main thing right now for him is to get healthy and work his way into the condition because Crean said he believes the 6-foot10 forward will become a large part of this Hoosier team. All of the freshmen have earned high praise from their coaches and teammates as they continue to progress in preparation for the season opener. The exhibition games serve as a good measuring stick for the young players as they continue to get acclimated with
NO. 11 IU vs. Bellarmine 7 p.m., Sat., Nov. 5 Simon Skojdt Assembly Hall one another before the games actually matter. “Playing with different players, you have to know different roles and different personalities,” Green said. “Coming in here I had a different mindset playing with new guys by learning everybody’s game and personalities on the court and learning how to play with them.”
After an October filled with preseason accolades and high expectations, IU will see its first game action this Sunday when University of Indianapolis comes to Bloomington for an exhibition contest. It will be IU’s first competitive game in the renovated Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall, and tipoff is scheduled for 2 p.m. The Division II Greyhounds finished 10-20 last season and two years ago lost an exhibition game to IU at Assembly Hall 88-49. All five IU starters return from a season ago, so this year’s exhibition won’t be so much an adjustment period as an opportunity to test how fresh the team is. Throughout the preseason, IU Coach Teri Moren has repeatedly stressed the need for IU to focus on the future rather than the past. Moren’s squad won its first NCAA tournament game in 33 years last season and is ranked No. 23 in the country in the AP preseason poll. IU was selected to finish third in the Big Ten by the coaches and media. Moren said the heightened focus on her team can be beneficial. “All of a sudden now we’re in uncharted territory because now we have expectations placed on us, but there’s not a true competitor that I know that wouldn’t want expectations placed on them,” Moren said. Indianapolis and its first-year head coach, Kristin Drabyn, return four starters and their second- and third-leading scorers from a squad last year that finished ninth in the 16-team Great Lakes Valley Conference. Senior forward Nicole Anderson, 13.7 ppg, and junior guard Sarah Costello, 10.4 ppg, will anchor the team. The Greyhounds were selected to finish fifth by coaches in their eight-team division of the GLVC. Seven letter winners from last year’s team return, along with the addition of five freshmen. Expect IU’s new faces to see plenty of action Sunday to get their first taste of collegiate basketball in a more relaxed game setting. Freshmen forwards Darby Foresman and Bre Wickware and freshman guard Ria Gulley have all been impressive, Moren said. The third-year coach even went so far as to say Gulley is the most athletic player on IU’s roster. Junior forward Amanda Cahill said the young players have adapted to IU’s system smoothly. “Things are definitely coming together. We still have things we need to continue to work on, but all the new people are really coming to the system well,” Cahill said. “Darby’s a really hard worker, and I think she’s eager to learn and try her best, so I’m thinking she’s going to have a good year.” Moren said the team’s four returning seniors, in addition to Cahill and junior guard Tyra Buss, have been able to bring the freshmen along and coach them up on their own. Moren stressed the importance of turning the team into a player-driven program rather than the coach-driven atmosphere that marked her first two seasons in Bloomington. Although results won’t matter much, if at all, Sunday, the play on the court will tell Moren a lot about what kind of growth IU can have this season. She hasn’t been shy about declaring that the goal for this season is to advance further in the NCAA tournament. “We are just taking it one day at a time and one play at a time, but we’re a lot different now than we were a year ago in terms of the experience,” Moren said. “We’re excited about the start of the season.”

A country divided
ILLUSTRATION BY KATHRYN MEIER | IDS
What’s not to <3? Emojis next to the works of Van Gogh? Not as crazy as it seems For college students, emojis have been around for almost as long as we’ve been alive. Now they’re finding their way off our phones and social media platforms and onto the walls of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Last Tuesday, the MoMA revealed its newest addition: the 176 symbols that make up the first generation of emojis. Created in 1999 by Shigetaka Kurita, the emojis will grace the lobby of the museum. Some people may think it inappropriate that something so ubiquitous as emojis be displayed in the same place as Vincent van Gogh’s “The Starry Night” or Andy Warhol’s “Campbell’s Soup Cans,” but this move by the MoMA is a fitting tribute to the digital age in which we live. The Art Story, a website dedicated to the appreciation of modern art, defines modern art as “the creative world’s response to the rationalist
practices and perspectives of the new lives and ideas provided by the technological advances of the industrial age that caused contemporary society to manifest itself in new ways compared to the past.” One cannot describe emojis more aptly. They are inherently a manifestation of contemporary society adapting itself in new ways. Once it became clear that texting and social media were modes of communication here to stay, emojis lent themselves perfectly to the emerging need for brevity and clarity. Emojis are special in that they transcend language barriers. Not everyone can understand English, Spanish or Chinese, but everyone can understand what emotion the ‘Face with Tears of Joy’ emoji is intended to convey. In fact, the Oxford Dictionaries even chose the ‘Face with Tears of Joy’ emoji as its
2015 Word of the Year. In doing so, they confirmed that emojis, or pictographs, are, in fact, culturally and historically important and not just a transient fad. Unsurprisingly, the online article in which the Oxford Dictionaries announced the emoji as its pick was criticized by commenters grumbling about how this latest development is, as one put it, “another nail in the coffin of Western civilization.” Perhaps people can learn to appreciate emojis if they view them as an expansion of our shared global culture instead of a harbinger of its doom. Young people have spread this form of communication that doesn’t require actual words, yet is universally understood. Even if you don’t want to fire off a few emojis when your friend sends you a funny picture, you can still appreciate them as a fascinat-
ing evolution of language. Even if you’re still on the Emojis-Are-Not-Art-AndNever-Will-Be bandwagon, take a minute to stop and consider the initial public reception to other artworks housed in the MoMA. It’s a typical example, but van Gogh only sold one painting during his lifetime out of the 900-plus he painted. Now, his works are some of the most beloved in the world. Considering this, it seems hasty of us to condemn emojis when they could turn out to be as culturally relevant as a van Gogh painting. So let’s not write off emojis as the ultimate downfall of civilization. As we’ve seen, they’ve connected us in new, revolutionary ways, and who knows — in the future, they might garner the same amount of admiration and reverence as “The Starry Night.”
ELECTION DAY
Consider everyones’ interests, not just your own It is almost here — the day that has dominated social media, news channels and even interpersonal communication for months on end — Election Day. Undoubtedly, many people will be relieved when the election is over and tensions die down, but as we all know, this is in some ways only the beginning. While we will have done our work by voting, the person we elect will lead our country for the next four years. That is why, even though it is late in the game and opinions may be seemingly set in stone, we should all take one last chance to look at the issues we really care about. This is the last chance we have to really look at who best represents not only the issues we care about for ourselves, but also the issues that affect all Americans. It is the latter type which I wish to focus on. It will always remain important to vote on issues that affect us personally. After all,
we all have different identities, and we want a candidate who will care about the specific issues we relate to. What I find troubling is that Donald Trump truly only represents the interests of a small group of people, mainly white men. Others may argue, but as a woman, I strongly believe that in the very least, he does not represent my interests. On equally alarming levels though, Trump has showed dangerous attitudes toward many other groups: the disabled, the LGBT community, Muslims and Mexicans, to name a few. As a white female, I openly admit that I have been granted some privilege that others have not had access to. In many ways, I have been able to avoid struggles that others are forced to face. If I wanted to vote for Trump, his attitude on women would probably affect me. But if I wanted to, I could more easily ignore his treat-
ment of other groups that I don’t identify with. Do we want to be passive in this way? Weren’t we told from a young age that we are supposed to care for other people beside ourselves? I always try to remind myself that the situation I was born into was really entirely random. I was born in a Minnesota suburb, but others were born into war zones. These are not choices we make, and it’s okay to acknowledge others have it worse than us. One thing I have noticed when talking with others about oppression or racism is that some people feel that acknowledging their own privilege will somehow take away from their own hard work. Acknowledging privilege does not mean that one didn’t go through difficulties or work their butt off to get where they are in life. It just means that, depending on certain social factors, they may have been able to avoid

certain systematic obstacles that others simply can’t avoid. We should not be blind to what others face. I watched Trump mock a disabled person on stage, and my heart broke for disabled individuals. I watched him jab at the family of a deceased Muslim Veteran, and my heart broke for Muslims. I heard him talk about grabbing a woman’s genitals without her consent, and my heart broke for women. If Trump is elected, my heart will break for our nation. I urge everyone to take a moment to really consider: who does this man represent? Because I do not think he represents the lovely melting pot that has been part of our fabric for centuries. sdloughr@indiana.edu

Throughout this lengthy campaign season, my mom has repeatedly called me and said, “Jess, I’m actually really scared that he could win. I was at a dinner party last night and Mr. and Mrs. so-and-so are Trump supporters.” The more frequently these calls came, the queasier they made me. Yet I could not accept the reality of them, especially early on in the game. But now that we’re less than a week away from Election Day, I’m nearly shitting my pants. And it’s not because Donald Trump is going to win. No, I’m nervous because there is this tiny sliver of hope that exists in the eyes of millions of Americans. It’s the hope that come January, he could be the one taking the oath of office to serve, protect and defend the United States of America. What’s scary is that the polls will never show how divided we truly are. During the Republican primaries, Morning Consult came out with the “Shy Trumper” theory. Trump performs better via online versus telephone polling. Why? Because with a phone call, you’re admitting to something — out loud. Kyle Dropp, Morning Consult’s chief research officer at the time, wrote, “If you’re a highly-educated or engaged Republican voter, it turns out that you’re far less likely to tell another human being you want Trump as president.” It’s come to the point where voting for Trump isn’t socially acceptable. In political science, this is called a social desirability bias. This theory is evident in my own small Connecticut town, existing in a bubble of its own ideologies, practically painting the streets red with its fiscal conservatism. The million-dollar homes of affluent New Englanders are chock-full of these “Shy Trumpers,” silently parading straight-ticket ballots to ensure their own well-being. I’m not saying this is bad or good — everyone has a right to vote, and vote they will. What’s sad is that so many Americans are voting for a president they won’t even admit to supporting out loud. There are few vocal Trump supporters in my own town.
JESSICA KARL is a senior in English.
The only one I can truly be sure is going to vote is Santo Silvestro, who painted huge red letters spelling “TRUMP” on the aluminum roof of his Deli last year in support of the candidate. “The owner, Santo Silvestro, is not a shy man,” reads the first sentence of an article published by the New Canaan News. In past elections, no one would bat a lash if someone were to paint their roof to support a presidential nominee. What makes Silvestro’s story newsworthy is that he is perhaps the only non-hushhush Trump supporter in my whole town. “Donald Trump has done something that has never been done in this country,” Silvestro said, “All the odds were against him and he rose to the top. That’s got to say something.” This type of support, although puzzling in nature, considering all of the other allegations against Trump, is admirably traditional. Silvestro is, in his own way, rallying the troops. Those red letters on his roof are one big battle cry. And if we’ve learned anything from Wednesday night’s historic World Series victory, we’re quick to jump on bandwagons. According to the US Census in 2010, 44.4 percent of New Canaan, Connecticut, is comprised of individuals age 40-69. Another 33.7 percent are under the age of 18. Essentially, it is a family town, existing solely on the basis of parents and their babies. Hillary Clinton is, for all intents and purposes, “the family candidate.” But in this unsettling election, people will secretly go against the grain at those ballot boxes come Tuesday. However big or small Clinton’s margin of victory is, she will still have herds of Shy Trumpers behind her, softly cursing underneath their breath every time a state turns blue on the map. We are a country divided. jlkarl@indiana.edu @jkarl26
ELECTION DAY
Get out and vote As we know, this presidential election cycle is depressing. Tensions are running high, and no one wants to cross party borders and compromise. I can see why this might lead people to think the system is rigged, votes don’t matter and there’s no point. I disagree. Whether or not we believe in a candidate fully, we all have the social responsibility to vote. The Electoral College is an interesting system to say the least. Essentially, our votes don’t directly count towards a candidate. We instead advise our state’s electors on how to cast their votes when they meet after the popular vote. In all, there are 538 electors in total, and a candidate needs 270 of their votes to win. This system is often criticized and cited as a major reason why people refuse to vote. However, its intentions are pure: to prevent seriously unfit candidates from entering the presidential office. The Electoral College may seem scary, but it exists to prevent tyranny of the masses. It’s important, and it should by no means stop anyone from voting. The other major reason why people don’t want to vote this year is because they feel like Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are too awful to support. This is where I’d normally spout some Libertarian propaganda about Gary Johnson, but that’s not the point of this piece. I understand that our major choices are seriously underwhelming this year, but that’s all the more reason to go out and vote. Whether you feel like you have to pick from the lesser of two evils or you are an ardent supporter of a
DYLAN MOORE is a sophomore in English and entrepreneurship
third party, you have a social responsibility as an American to vote. Thankfully, there’s no law that forces us to vote. That would be absolutely unjust, and our freedom to sit out from the elections should never be repealed. My personal opinion, however, is that choosing not to vote means you’re choosing not to complain about how things turn out. It isn’t a legal responsibility, but an ethical one. Frankly, I don’t think America has a particularly bright four years ahead of her. I wish I could say that we will magically wise up as a nation and stop allowing such unfit people to become our leaders, but it seems that things are getting worse rather than better. But now that we’ve gotten ourselves into this mess, we need to deal with it. The worst part is that many people say that they’re making a statement by not voting, like it’s an admirable thing. Claiming moral superiority by not voting is akin to not attending class because your professor is stupid. That’s good for you, but you’re going to fail. I love the American political system. Our candidates this year are underwhelming to say the least, but we have to have faith in the process that has gotten our beautiful country this far. You absolutely have the right not to vote this Tuesday, but please don’t exercise it. dylmoore@indiana.edu

Director’s last show to be religious experience By Mallory Haag mjhaag@indiana.edu | @MalloryHaag
IU Theatre will bring a touch of religion to campus with the visual exhibition that is “Jesus Christ Superstar.” The show will be performed 7:30 p.m. Friday in the Ruth N. Halls Theatre. It will be the last production directed by IU veteran George Pinney. Pinney has directed at the University for 30 years and has seen the theater department grow and improve, he said. “I started choreographing production members in gravel parking lots,” Pinney said. “Now we are in a state-ofthe-art building. We also now have the MFA program. The musical theater program is 10 years old, and it is attracting top talent from coast to coast.” “Jesus Christ Superstar” is a retelling of biblical events through the eyes of Judas. Created 40 years ago by Andrew Lloyd Weber and Tim Rice, the rock-’n’-roll-style musical incorporates production details that aim to impress the audience, music director Brandon Porter said. “From the set design to the light design to the costume design, it is quite a spectacle,” Porter said. “I think people will be wowed at just how much is going on on the stage at one time.” The musical incorporates a large cast with a few central roles. The musical showcases characters people can identify with, said senior Meadow Nguy, who plays Mary in the musical. “There are some pretty intense and emotional circumstances within the show that the spectacle really lends itself to rather than inhibits,” Nguy said. “My role isn’t only about love but forgiveness. My expe-

riences working on this role has been very personal and connected with the production staff.” The musical is a testament to the years of work Pinney has put into the program, Porter said. “The work that George Pinney has done is some of the best work I’ve ever seen him do before,” Porter said. Pinney’s work has affected
artists like Nguy for the better, she said. Through work with him, she was able to understand musical performance in a new light, she said. “He is amazing,” Nugy said. “His positivity and genuine self is what brought me to IU, and because of his gigantic past of performing and directing experiences, he is able to explain things to everyone in a way that truly
works magic.” The musical will star 32 cast members and 9 orchestral pit singers. Pinney said having this many people participate in “Jesus Christ Superstar” offers a great experience for those involved and for the audience. “Educationally, there’s a lot more opportunity for more people, which is always a good thing, and ‘Je-
sus Christ Superstar’ is full of spectacle, so in order to achieve that, it takes a larger cast,” Pinney said. Porter said he hopes audiences will be struck by the immensity of the performance. “I just hope the audiences are completely wowed,” Porter said. “ I really hope people enjoy the monstrosity that this show is.”

24-hour theater competition to fundraise for playwrights By Mallory Haag mjhaag@indiana.edu | @MalloryHaag
Those involved in the Bloomington Playwrights Project will need a lot of energy and focus before curtain call this weekend during the Ike and Julie Arnove PlayOffs. The fundraising event will challenge theater veterans and novices alike at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday in the Timothy J. Wiles Theater at Bloomington Playwrights Project. The competition requires playwrights, directors and
actors to create a full production within 24 hours. Playwrights and directors are assigned teams of actors Friday, and teams are given a line of dialogue, a prop and theme on which the play should be based. The play is then performed Saturday evening, and those in attendance vote on who wins the competition. The event raises funds for the Bloomington Playwrights Project, which supports local playwrights and the creation of new plays and productions.
“There are a couple of different ways that we engage people. One is though the actual performance,” said Jessica Reed, managing director of the Bloomington Playwrights Project. “We also ask all those participating to raise money in the weeks leading up to the event.” Ben Smith, a playwright participating in this year’s event, said he even find this part of the event exciting. “The biggest reward is just the fundraising for the organization,” Smith said. “It
is the biggest fundraiser for the BPP throughout the year. It provides everyone with the funds needed to continue doing new plays.” The event is open to those with or without previous theater experience, as long as they raise money for the event. “It brings together people that may not be actors or writers or technical people, but it builds a community of people who have a shared love of theater and a shared love of the BPP,” Smith said. The PlayOffs, which
take place yearly in honor of the World Series, aim to engage the entire community by reaching past those within the Bloomington Playwrights Project and get those in the greater Bloomington area involved, Reed said. “The actors, the directors and the playwrights are sort of working their networks to raise money,” Reed said. “So we’re able to reach beyond our current donor base.” Reed said the PlayOffs are a creative way to get people involved and interested
in helping support playwrights in the area. She said it is important to her that the event allows playwrights to produce new material because they are properly funded. “I hope that their involvement is more money raised,” Reed said. “The more donors that we have in this event — the more money we raise — the more we’re able to do throughout the year. I also hope people come to see the show because it is so impressive that all of this happens in 24 hours.”
IU sophomore launches collaborative cosmetic line By Katie Chrisco kchrisco@ius.edu | @katiechrisco
When shopping for Kylie Jenner’s Kylie Cosmetics line this summer, IU sophomore Patricia Leonardo said she wondered why she couldn’t have a successful makeup collection like Jenner’s. But, as her mother pointed out, she could. Through collaboration with her godmother, Lorena “Nena” Perez, Leonardo launched her own makeup collection this fall. The Patricia Collection is currently available online through Perez’s cosmetic company, NENA. “To see Kylie do it — we’re the same age, and that’s so crazy,” Leonardo said. “I’m 19, she’s 19, and so I can do this too.” The line features three products, a liquid lipstick, felt-tip eyeliner and mascara, chosen and inspired by Leonardo. Leonardo said she chose to make the mascara blue since it is a fresh new trend in the beauty industry. “It’s supposed to accentuate your eye color with the reflection,” she said. “Instead of the black that people use, the blue color reflects off the whites of your eyes and makes your eyes look brighter.” Perez, whose cosmetic company has a factory in New York and a store in the Philippines, said she was very excited when Leonardo came to her with the idea of
creating her own makeup collection. “I thought it was brilliant, and of course I agreed to do it because she’s my goddaughter and I would love to be able to mentor her,” she said. “She reminds me so much of myself when I first started, because we both come from entrepreneur families.” Leonardo said creating the collection was more work than she first imagined. From creating the logo to choosing different colors and palettes, Leonardo said she wanted the collection to reflect her personality. “I thought it would be easy at first,” she said. “From the surface it’s just like ‘Oh, all I have to do is promote,’ but I had to start from scratch pretty much.” Now that the product is launched, Leonardo said she is in charge of the shipping and handling of the inventory and its promotion and marketing. Perez said Leonardo has strong marketing skills but she is still showing her the ropes of the cosmetic business. “A charming, likeable personality when you’re doing business is definitely a plus, so I see that in her,” Perez said. “I’m just trying to mentor her and polish all her skills. It’s a great start to have a passion for something that you’re doing.” Although Leonardo, a biochemistry major, clearly has a passion for makeup, she said

her ultimate goal is to become an optometrist. Despite this goal, she said she hopes to continue to create makeup collections with the help of Perez. “This is just a side thing that I enjoy doing,” she said. “My parents are entrepreneurs, so I wanted to start my own business, and it’s good to start young even if it’s just a little idea, just get started.” While Leonardo said she sometimes worries about people not taking her seriously as a business owner because of her age, she brushes it off. “I’m not someone to care what people think and have it affect me,” she said. “I’m just doing my own thing. My goal is to inspire people. No matter how young you are or what dreams you have, just go for it. No one is stopping you except yourself.”

FIELD HOCKEY
Hoosiers lose in Big Ten tournament ley was able to bypass Rother to put the Nittany Lions on the board. The Nittany Lions capitalized on a rebound in the second half to up their lead to 2-0. Hempt’s first career goal briefly gave IU a chance, but after Penn State’s third goal Janney’s decision to pull Rother, who had 10 saves in the game, for an extra field player didn’t result in more Hoosier goals. This was the second consecutive time Penn State has knocked IU out of the Big Ten Tournament in the quarterfinals with a 3-1 score. Senior Kate Barber ended her collegiate career as IU’s top scorer and record holder for single-season goals and points with 18 and 40, respectively. “We are so proud of our seniors,” Janney said. “They had a great year for us and each one of them stepped up today and made some big plays to put us in a position to win. Knowing we have such strong underclassmen coming up is bright for the future.” Hempt said even though the Hoosiers were not able to get the results they wanted this season, they are already setting their minds on finishing as Big Ten Tournament champions next year. “We worked really hard and did not get the outcome we wanted, obviously,” Hempt said. “So, we just have to work twice as hard next year to hopefully come up on top.”

Junior defender Elle Hempt had IU back within one goal of No. 6 Penn State after a penalty corner with 21 minutes left in the game, but a quick response by the Nittany Lions was just too much to overcome. IU couldn’t get two goals in the time remaining and, as a result, suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Penn State in College Park, Maryland, in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals. The Hoosiers finished the season at 8-12 overall and 3-6 in the Big Ten. IU struggled against ranked opponents throughout the season and fell short in nine of 11 encounters. IU only registered victories against thenNo. 12 Michigan and thenNo. 6 Northwestern. “We are just really pleased with our team’s effort,” IU Coach Amanda Janney said. “The entire season I think we really improved every weekend, and we were playing some really great hockey at the end of the season but frustrated that did not show on the scoreboard today.” The Nittany Lions’ high octane offense kept the Hoosier defense on its heels on many occasions and forced sophomore goalie Noëlle Rother to stop six shots on goal before allowing her first goal. However, in the 27th minute of the first half, Penn State midfielder Gini Bram-

IU faces another top-25 team By Spencer Davis spjdavis@indiana.edu @spencer_davis16
Saturday evening may be IU volleyball’s best chance to snap its nine-match losing streak, dating back to 2010, against No. 22 Ohio State, 1510, 5-8 in conference. Coming off three competitive matches, including a win, against three top-15 teams, the Hoosiers, 15-11, 4-9 in conference, are playing with a great deal of confidence. That, paired with Ohio State’s struggles on the road, where the Buckeyes have a 3-7 record compared to 6-3 at home, should make for a well-fought contest. “We put ourselves into a good position for this match, and we have to continue to get better and not back away,” IU Coach Sherry DunbarKruzan said. “Our middles are doing some unbelievable work right now, but our rights and lefts are really going to have to step up to the challenge.” Dunbar-Kruzan will be watching out for senior middle blocker Taylor Sandbothe, who just broke the all-time career blocks record at Ohio State. She said that Sandbothe reminds the Hoosier head coach of former IU player and current assistant coach Ashley Benson. Sandbothe was a 2015 American Volleyball Collegiate Association first-team All-American, and she ranks 12th in the Big Ten in blocks

They are ranked No. 22 for a reason, but we have to have confidence playing on our home court.” Senior outside hitter Allison Hammond said she has noticed her teammates have made a conscious effort to be more aggressive as of late.

“I’m so proud of this team so far for the growth that we’ve had, even in the later part of this season,” Hammond said. “We are going to implement that and keep the standard of play that we have found the past few games. If we are super aggressive and we play together then we’ll pull it off.” The outside hitter said IU must exploit Ohio State’s lackluster road record and use it to IU’s advantage, like it did in its upset last weekend against then-No. 13 Michigan.

Tallman broke the IU record for career assists in the rally scoring era, and Lebo now owns the all-time record for career aces in the rally scoring era.
