Ambulance and PT Cruiser collided on SR 37 From IDS reports
Officers from the Monroe County Sheriff ’s Department were dispatched to an accident Saturday with injuries on State Road 37. A south-bound ambulance was going through an intersection with its lights and sirens on when it collided with a PT Cruiser attempting to go through the intersection as well. The ambulance, which was carrying a patient in critical condition, hit the PT Cruiser directly on the driver’s side door and the impact forced both vehicles into a nearby median. Mary Pietsch, 61, the driver of the PT Cruiser, was pronounced dead on the scene when three other ambulances arrived. The driver of the ambulance, Joshua Davis, was driven to IU Health Bloomington for a blood draw to test for drugs. Sheriff ’s department officers said they did not observe any signs of impairment from Davis.

Concert at the Bishop supports Standing Rock protesters By Mallory Haag mjhaag@indiana.edu | @MalloryHaag
Bloomington locals performed an homage to Standing Rock protesters in defense of clean water and the opposition of the Dakota Access Pipeline on Monday night. Regulars of the Bishop Bar and fans of the performers gathered in a small concert area as Travis Puntarelli and UpFolk played folk and blues tunes. The performance was a benefit concert, as all proceeds from ticket sales went directly to the protesters. Attendees were also given the opportunity to donate additional funds. “Music goes to the heart and to the soul as well as to the mind,” Puntarelli said. “Music moves us emotionally and not just mentally. It can touch us and we can pass different information than we can via text or talking.” Native American citizens
especially oppose the North Dakota pipeline because its construction would run through religious ground and could have lasting effects on drinking water. Environmental activists also argue that the pipeline could contribute to climate change. “It represents the future of what we want to do with this country,” Puntarelli’s bandmate Mark Haggerty said. “We don’t want the corporations putting pipelines under our major rivers.” The donations will be given to protesters who have shared their intentions to continue their efforts throughout the winter. Some of the proceeds will be used to provide blankets and suitable shelter for the protesters, according to the Bishop’s website. Haggerty said Puntarelli’s music and lyrics will cut to the heart of the meaning behind events in Standing Rock as well as speak to the

The United States election cycle is coming to an end today, and after the polls close the country will find out which candidate will be president and if their fundraising and campaign funds were effective at reaching and mobilizing voters. More than $1.3 billion has been raised for both Republican and Democratic candidates, according to the Federal Elections Commission. Most of those funds were raised for Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. As of Oct. 19, Republicans have raised $551.6 million to the Democrats’ $733.5 million.

Five people from Indianapolis were charged with theft after stealing more than $4,000 from Dick’s Sporting Goods, Macy’s and Kohl’s in Bloomington. Willie Eaton III, Makayla Marshall, Justin Smith, Ryan Williams and Tayay Williams were all arrested during a traffic stop by Bloomington Police Department officers. BPD had responded to a call from Dick’s, which indicated the five had run into the store and stolen a large amount of clothing from the first clothing racks they saw, BPD Lt. Brad Seifers said. The five stole clothing and outerwear totaling $1,857. Police received a vehicle description at Dick’s. A witness reported and told police they saw the five get into a silver Pontiac Grand Am and drive away. Then, while responding to a second call from Kohl’s, an officer passed a vehicle that matched the description from Dick’s and pulled them over. Seifers said Kohl’s had $1,044 stolen. After BPD sent an officer to Kohl’s to look through video footage, it was determined the five people were the same. The stolen clothing was in the trunk of their vehicle. After they had been taken into custody, BPD discovered they had also stolen $1,521 worth of items from Macy’s. Two of the five, Eaton and Smith, cooperated with police and made statements about the crime. The other three refused to speak or cooperate with police. All five are currently in custody.

I wouldn’t really want to play with anybody else.” Puntarelli said he aims to encourage an inclusive show for his audience and support discussion regarding the Standing Rock protests among those who attended. “I hope we have no audience, and it’s just folks who show up,” Puntarelli said. “I hope that there’s some feelings of unification.” He said the event referenced nature of the protests taking place in North Dakota and encouraged a positive environment. “In Standing Rock, they’re praying,” Puntarelli said. “They’re singing songs, so we’ll sing songs here just to be in solidarity. They sing and hopefully everyone gets what they want.”

Ask Drew Ash: student discusses campaign By Lydia Gerike lgerike@umail.iu.edu | @lydi_yeah
IU senior Drew Ash knew exactly whom to pick when he voted early for Indiana State Representative District 61: himself. Ash, who said he chose to run this year because it is the first election he met the age limit of 21, is running as an independent on a campaign that is almost completely self-funded. IDS: How are you feeling right now? Ash: Naturally, there are the jitters because there’s been so much preparation, and it all comes to close in one day. We’ve been working on this for months, getting out the vote, and it all comes down to one day, which is tomorrow. Nervous, but you realize there’s a point in time where I can’t really do anything more. What are some of the challenges you’ve faced during this campaign? Apathy is by far the most troubling thing I’ve faced just because there’s a number of voters who aren’t even motivated to vote at all. Getting them to register and then go to the polls is difficult. The key is relating the campaign to them personally. ... If they’re a student and have student loans, it matters. If they’re a minimum wageworker and they’re earning
minimum wage, it matters. Anybody who pays taxes, which is everybody, whether you have a job or not, because you’re paying sales tax, you’re paying property tax, this election matters to you. What was your biggest goal for the campaign, and do you feel like you met it? The biggest goal of this campaign was to bring new issues to the forefront that otherwise wouldn’t have been brought, and in that capacity, I think we’ve been successful. I’ve lobbied for the full-out legalization of marijuana, so finally we have a candidate in the area that supports that. Also, as a progressive, I’ve argued against a high corporate income tax for progressive reasons, because I think it’s a flat tax, and there’s some nuances on some of the issues where I’m glad I’ve been able to bring attention to because otherwise I don’t think they would have been discussed. Why should people vote for you? Because I am in the best position to lobby for change. I haven’t taken out-of-state money, I haven’t taken corporate money. When I lobby for campaign finance reform, I’m not going to be cast as a hypocrite because I’ve led by example. I haven’t been in the statehouse for years. Talk is cheap, and we’ve had our current representa-

tive for many years, and I respect him, but I think we need to move forward in a new direction. And finally, as an independent, I think I can bridge the divide between both parties at a time when we’re so fractured politically. How is the final leg of this race different from the rest of it? I think it’s the most tiring, but at the same front, you’re also more motivated, and you’re more inspired, and you have more energy. Yes, you’re
more tired. You’re also more motivated, and it kind of just cancels out. Do you have any memories that stand out to you from this campaign? You always strike up conversations with people about the election when you least expect it, and that’s memorable. Running your campaign as a small business I think is really cool. Having the authority to call the shots and designate resources where you see best fit I think is a valuable experience.
How are you feeling about your chances? I think it’s an uphill battle. To set expectations realistically because I’m running as an independent, and independents typically don’t fare too well in elections, but I think we have a strong student vote that will turn up. I think we have a strong number of people who used to canvass for Bernie that might choose to vote for me because I’m a strong Bernie supporter — or I was before Hillary won the nomination. I think there’s a coalition that we’ve tried to
build, and I think those people in that coalition are very likely to vote tomorrow, and I think that increases our odds. If you could say one final thing to voters, what would it be? Be there, and remember you don’t get this chance every month. You’re not going to be able to vote for another two years for this office, so make sure that you vote for bold change, because if you vote for the status quo, you’re not going to get the chance to vote again for quite a while.

Professors talk U.S.-Russia relations
Numerous campus locations to have results watch parties
By Hussain Ather sather@umail.iu.edu | @SHussainAther
In what many commentators are calling one of the most heated elections in the nation’s history, one issue remains cold: Russia. United States relations with Russia are reminiscent of Cold War tensions, said Regina Smyth, associate professor of political science. She said both major party candidates, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, are not good choices when it comes to their stances toward Russia. “On the one hand, Mrs. Clinton seems focused on escalating tensions,” Smyth said. “On the other hand, Mr. Trump seems focused on appeasement.” Smyth believes the path going forward will be difficult no matter what the outcome of the election is. “Mrs. Clinton has had a formal diplomatic relationship with Putin that has been tense and difficult,” Smyth said. Despite these tensions, Lee Feinstein, dean for the School of Global and International Studies and former U.S. ambassador to Poland, showed some optimism about Clinton’s ties with Russia. “It’s important to understand one could have a very clear idea or politic view while still finding areas of cooperation open and possible,” Feinstein said. Feinstein said President
Obama demonstrated this with his clarity and principled disagreements in negotiations with Russia and Iran. “Secretary Clinton’s views are very much in the mainstream of American public opinion,” Feinstein said. Clinton’s clear-eyed views of Putin’s policies and how they fit into American policy would be continuations of those of Obama’s administration, Feinstein said. In contrast to Clinton, Trump is perceived as friendly to Russia and the perceived ties of Trump to Russia have raised concerns from the American public, Smyth said. Feinstein said Trump seems to have an accommodationist view when working with a strongman like Putin. “This is really unusual and surprising in American politics, that a major U.S. candidate is friendly to an authoritarian leader who preys into the borders of neighboring states,” Feinstein said. Trump’s previous campaign chairman Paul Manafort resigned after facing criticism for his ties to former Ukrainian prime minister Viktor Yanukovych. Between the polarizing perceptions of the candidates on Russia, Smyth said Putin has worked to make the election appear chaotic — that all campaigns appear corrupt and there are

no viable options. “A sensible strategy to attain a working relationship with Putin hasn’t been laid out yet,” Smyth said. Smyth said the public should be concerned about email-hacking by Russians, Smyth said. “They’re compromising national security systems, and they could be developing routes into other cyberattacks,” Smyth said. Smyth said Putin has tried to build his position in the world through chaos and disorder. “I think that with the email issue, you have two U.S. government agencies saying that Russia was responsible for the hacks,” Feinstein said. “That’s a pretty clear indication Russia’s been involved. It’s hard to know
why Russia has done these hacks, though, Feinstein said, “There’s been an arrest of a Russian who the U.S. believes is personally involved in this in the Czech Republic,” Feinstein said. “The government is trying to follow who’s involved.” The U.S.’s relations with Russia — including Putin’s endorsement of Trump and the email-hacking allegations — might normally seem like big issues, but Smyth said the public surprisingly doesn’t care. Feinstein hopes the public will better understand the U.S.-Russia relations with respect to these issues. “On the whole, what’s interesting about all of this is that Americans don’t seem to care one bit about any of this,” Smyth said.

Art show, gallery features student work By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@iu.edu | @SarahVerschoor
Celine Oberholzer, an IU student, creates and draws mandalas, or circles with intricate designs throughout the center. Oberholzer uses both Sharpies and stamps from her grandfather’s stamp collection to detail and color the complex circles. “Mandalas are called drawing from the light within, transcending light or dark,” Oberholzer said. “They are so circular. They indicate a sense of inclusion but are also really universal, therapeutic and meditative.” Oberholzer said her mandalas and other artwork facilitate conversations and bring awareness to things people usually are uncomfortable talking about.
Oberholzer and other artists are contributing their artwork to Art from the Margins, an art show and gallery organized by the Feminist Student Association. The artwork will be featured in the Indiana Memorial Union Gallery near Starbucks for two weeks. In addition to Oberholzer’s mandalas, the gallery will include visual artwork, paintings and photos. One piece details skin tone, race and the lack of makeup options for people of color. FSA also organized an event 6:30 p.m. Saturday night that will feature live performances from rappers, singers, poets and others to go along with the gallery. “Identity is expressed in an open way throughout the artwork,” IU student
and event organizer Sophia Muston said. “There’s a lot of work about specific type of experiences.” Art from the Margins is an annual FSA event. However, in years past, it has taken place at the Bishop and other locations off campus. This is Muston’s first year organizing Art from the Margins, and she said she is excited to be putting it together. Muston said this year, they wanted to make it as accessible as possible for students. She and the FSA decided to move the location to IMU where it will be very visible to students. FSA is also working with the Black Student Union. They thought about having a Black Lives Matter theme for the event, but Muston said it would have been too challenging to find artwork
from students that spoke specifically to that topic. “We wanted to take a stand and celebrate art by all people,” Muston said. Oberholzer said her artwork and mandalas include these ideas of unity. “I like to leave it open to interpretation,” she said about her art’s themes. “Everyone sees different things, like symmetry evokes a sense of balance and being very centered, which I like.” She, too, sees the benefit in having an event like this that offers diverse opinion and ideas. “I am a feminist a hundred percent,” Oberholzer said. “I honestly just think it’s cool to have events that represents women and marginalized communities. It makes it a more inclusive campus.”

Poll workers prepare for Election Day 2016 By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman
Poll preparation is coming to an end as election day arrives. For the last day of early voting, voters were lined up out the door of Election Central. People waited in line for at least 25 minutes to vote before noon when the polls closed, said Ann Collins, Republican candidate for treasurer. “It’s exciting to see,” Collins said. “Tomorrow is going to be a long day, though.” At noon, four U-Haul trucks will arrive to pick up the remaining voting equipment and ballots at Election Central and set up the 35 poll sites in Monroe County, said Tree Martin, chief deputy of the Monroe County Clerks Office. Poll sites are set up oneby-one and checked thoroughly to ensure there will be no problems come election day with the voting machines, including electronic poll books, which allow election officials to review and process voter information; printers; e-slate ballots, the electronic voting system employed in Monroe County; and internet connectivity. Martin said she expects all

On Election Day, Martin will oversee more than 400 inspectors and poll workers managing the 35 sites. Martin said the signage outside Election Central should also be removed, but that is the candidates’ responsibility. They can choose which polling sites to place their signage at on election day. Nelson Shaffer, Republican candidate for county commissioner, said after the polls close Monday he will remove his signs from outside Election Central and set them up outside various polling sites. Campaigning at Election Central is easy because everyone votes at one location, Shaffer said. However, now he will have to plan how to use his time most effectively. Shaffer said though the experts suggest candidates remain at one polling site to speak to the most voters, Shaffer thinks he will move around and go with the ebb and flow of the sites. He will

Penny Githens seeks state election in District 60 By Dominick Jean, Katelyn Haas, Jordan Guskey drjean@indiana.edu haask@indiana.edu jguskey@indiana.edu
Penny Githens’ bid for District 60 in Indiana is highlighted by one significant difference from her opponent: Peggy Mayfield. “Mayfield doesn’t listen, and I just couldn’t sit there,” Githens said. Mayfield, the Republican incumPenny bent for DisGithens trict 60, won her district in 2014 and defeated the Democrat challenger Daymon L. Brodhacker by almost 4,000 votes. Githens, the Democrat candidate this year, said she thinks things are changing in her favor. “We’re seeing a real swing in what people want, and we’re not riding anyone’s coattails,” Githens said. After redistricting in
2010, Bloomington is represented by five different state house representatives, with District including only a small portion of Monroe County. Sue Wanzer, member of the Democratic Women’s Caucus, said when redistricting occurred it became more difficult for Democrats to get a hold on the area. “That’s just how the district is drawn, as well as three of the other districts. One was drawn just with Bloomington, the one Matt Pierce represents,” Wanzer said. “So it was just assumed that that was the Democratic district and the other four are Republican districts.” She said Mayfield is more familiar to voters, too, because she has had other positions in the Mooresville and Martinsville area and owned an insurance business. She said Mayfield has failed to show up to League of Women Voters panels or forums set up between candidates. “If you want to know the difference between their
two campaigns ... Peggy who? I mean, there’s nothing,” Wanzer said. “Maybe she’s just talking to folks in Martinsville. I don’t know.” Throughout the campaign, Githens has been unable to engage with her opponent face to face. Over the course of the 2016 election cycle, Githens and her campaign proposed three forums, all of which Mayfield refused to respond to or attend. The only forum Mayfield did attend was one that was not open to the public. Githens said she thinks her opponent would have trouble explaining some of her votes, such as when Mayfield tried to pass a bill into law that would have prevented out-of-state college students from voting in Indiana. “She just doesn’t respond to things,” Githens said. “It’s hard for her to answer for some of her votes.” While Mayfield refused comments in local newspapers, Githens said she is trying to run a more open, issue-oriented campaign.
Githens’ campaign manager, Morgan Murphy, said people relate to what Githens is talking about this election. “She talks about public education and how we need to invest in schools,” Murphy said. “That’s not something that people disagree with.” Public education is one of the major topics on the table for Githens this year. Githens said her focus is on improving education in particular by mandating kindergarten and focusing less on testing. Githens said the testing does not provide the information administrators need and it contributes to stress and anxiety in children. “They’re stressed,” Githens said. “They feel like failures.” Mandated kindergarten would allow parents to work during the day without having to pay for expensive child care, Githens said. Families and businesses are attracted to areas with high-quality schools. “Maintaining quality
schools is good for your bottom line too,” Githens said. Githens said a strong educational system would enhance the economy and encourage business owners. Murphy said while Githens tried to engage with Mayfield on education issues, Mayfield has focused on social issues and gun rights and has failed to understand the needs of her constituents. “They’re all kind of like, ‘Hey, we have real problems. We don’t necessarily care if you can carry guns in the statehouse or legislation along that line,’” Murphy said. “‘We want legislation that improves our community.’” Murphy said she believes Mayfield has refused to engage with the issues because she is afraid of making a mistake or looking foolish. Mayfield’s contact, or lack of contact, with her constituents is a mark against her. “I think it’s definitely disgraceful,” Murphy said. “It’s her job, and it’s important that she engage with her
constituents.” Based off what she has seen from Mayfield, Githens said she hopes to make a real difference in District 60 just as she has done in the state already. Another major motivation for Githens entering the race has been her desire to improve the state for her autistic son, Nathan. When Nathan was born, Githens said her insurance company would not cover him on their plan and she wanted that to change. “My son did nothing to cause his autism,” Githens said. “It didn’t seem fair that insurance companies get to choose.” Githens stood on record before the Indiana commission on autism, and, after two years, she succeeded in gaining coverage for her son and set a precedent for those like him. Githens said, if elected, she wants to make a difference in legislature and with her constituents just like when she fought for her son. “I am ready to rock and roll,” Githens said.
ELECTION 2016
Fishing, hunting questioned in ballot By Lyndsay Jones jonesly@indiana.edu @lyndsayjonesy
Indiana voters will have the chance to decide today whether or not hunting and fishing are constitutional rights. Public Question 1 on the ballot will ask voters if they agree the right to hunt, fish and harvest wildlife is an important part of Indiana Heritage, and if that right should be protected forever, according to Ballotpedia. If enough voters answer “yes” on their ballots, the amendment will be added to the state constitution. Rep. Heath VanNatter, RDistrict 38, is a co-sponsor of the amendment. He said the yes-or-no question is as simple as it sounds. “It’s a very simple question and that’s what confuses people,” VanNatter said. “They’re like ‘isn’t hunting a thing we already protect’?” Without the amendment, it’s possible for local governments to enact bans on hunting. VanNatter said he wasn’t aware of any that had done so, but the amendment would prevent them from doing so in the future. The concern that local governments might pass such a ban stems from an acknowledgement of anti-hunt-
ing and animal rights movements, such as People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, across the country. “Nationally there is a movement to put an end to hunting,” VanNatter said. “If PETA had their way, they’d put an end to hunting.” David Orentlicher, a law professor at Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law in Indianapolis, said increased regulations on hunting also prompted concern about the future of hunting. “One reason for this is concern among people who hunt and fish that increasing regulations and shorter seasons are making it increasingly more difficult to hunt and fish,” Orentlicher said. He said there are animals rights groups wanting to do away with hunting altogether but also added that many regulations have been put into place as a means of making sure hunting is viable in the long-term and that animal populations aren’t completely depleted. But not all the reasons for the referendum are directly related to hunting. Orentlicher said the amendment also serves as a means of “bolstering” the right to bear arms. Orentlicher also said the amendment being on the bal-
lot serves as a way to generate Election Day turnout by energizing people to vote. He added he didn’t think Indiana would ever see a time when hunting was completely banned. VanNatter said he didn’t either, but said Tuesday’s votes will reveal how the voters really feel. IU senior Annie Huebner said she plans to vote yes for the amendment. “I used to be anti-hunting,” Huebner said. “And then I came to college.” Huebner said she studies wildlife management through her environmental management major at the School of Public and Environmental Affairs . She said she learned that hunting is the most effective way to keep animal populations under control. “Ways of non-lethal management of these populations cost so much money and resources,” Huebner said. “Hunting is the most efficient way to manage a population that’s out of control.” Non-lethal population management includes methods such as animal contraception — methods Huebner said are not as fiscally strategic. She said she thinks people of her generation are more likely to look at hunting as a negative thing when it could be more humane to keep a popu-
lation of animals, such as deer, under control. “Our generation is moving away from understanding nature to thinking ‘more deer, awesome’,” Huebner said. But an increased population of deer means a greater chance of hitting one on the road or an ecosystem that’s out-of-whack due to deer overgrazing some plants, Huebner said. VanNatter said he was also concerned about the human side of the issue. “Hunting is a big deal for a lot of families,” VanNatter said. “A lot of people feed their families this way.” VanNatter said his brother feeds his family meat exclusively through deer hunting. “They don’t just go to the store and pick up hamburger meat,” VanNatter said. “This amendment is going to protect people’s right to do that.” Huebner said the opposition she’s heard has centered around the amendment being an “NRA ploy.” She said she doesn’t believe that is true because the excise tax on fishing and hunting licenses goes back directly to the Indiana Department of Natural Resource’s funds for managing fish and wildlife. If the amendment passes, Indiana will join 19 other states that have passed similar amendments.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Bloomington for an official visit. She fell in love with the campus, but it was the family-feel of the team that made Megan tell her mom she would be signing her letter of intent to become a Hoosier. Julie recalls the exact moment her daughter picked IU. The two women took advantage of a bathroom break as their brief moment of privacy from the recruiting visit and spoke from stall-to-stall. Megan raved about the school being a dream come true and excitedly claimed she would sign on the spot. The only thing missing, though, was the school’s offer, which her mother reminded her had yet to come. Not only would she receive the offer, but Megan would also fulfill a promise she made at just 13 years old. Her parents distinctly remember her telling them she would play volleyball with the best of the best. “Megan is the most driven person I know,” Russell Tallman, Megan’s father, said. “Don’t tell her that she can’t do something because she is going to prove you wrong.” Volleyball has been a unifying factor for the Tallman family. Megan’s parents met playing volleyball and she and her sister, Danielle, owe their relationship to the sport. Megan and Danielle didn’t get along well growing up, which almost caused Megan to avoid volleyball altogether, until her father noticed her talent was too good to ignore.
and air time in the state. Trump’s campaign has spent $126.6 million on online advertising and ad buys throughout the country. Fraga said, while it has not been talked about as much in the media, Trump has had an effective get-out-the-vote system in key states as well. “The Trump campaign also appears to be mobilizing supporters effectively, at least in a small number of swing states,” Fraga said. Clinton has spent $253.2 million, twice what Trump
has spent, on media buys and online advertising. Much of the funds spent on media and advertising have gone toward negative advertising against the other candidate. Marjorie Hershey, a professor of political science at IU, said both candidates have unusually high negative ratings in the polls. Presidential candidates going from George W. Bush to Dwight Eisenhower enjoyed an average of 70-percent favorability in the polls, according to Gallup polling information.
As a result, Hershey said the candidates do not have much choice except to try to make the other appear worse through buying air time and using negative ads. “They don’t have much choice other than to try to deepen one another’s negative image,” Hershey said. Despite the negativity and divisiveness of the campaigns this election, Fraga said he believes the attacks have not changed the minds of voters. “This election will be remembered as an instance

The state of Indiana, which historically votes Republican, has funneled more money to Clinton than to Trump this election, and this is one reason Trump has been focusing on buying greater television

Senior setter Megan Tallman sets the ball to Deyshia Lofton on Saturday evening’s match against Ohio State. The Hoosiers defeated the Buckeyes 3-1.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is an 8 — Savor seasonal flavors and colors. Relax with someone special today and tomorrow. Over the next six weeks, with Mars in Aquarius, put physical energy into home renovation, organization and beautification.
Those leadership skills would be tested at IU, where the Hoosiers won just one major Big Ten match, against then-No. 10 Michigan State, in her freshman year. Megan was joined by three other freshmen, middle blocker Jazzmine McDonald, outside hitter Allison Hammond and outside hitter Mallory Waggoner, that first year and the girls decided together that they would make a difference to change this program. “The first year was rough and those four have been together since day one,” Julie said. “It’s a class that has made such a huge impact.
When she took over that role as setter she had to learn how to lead. This year I couldn’t be more proud of the leader she is.” Just a few years later, IU is now 16-11 overall, 5-9 in the Big Ten and coming off of two home upset victories over ranked opponents in its last two home matches. IU Coach Sherry Dunbar-Kruzan attributes the team’s increased success to its newfound winning mentality, something Tallman has been essential in implementing. “Megan has this unique ability to be very demanding and very influential, but yet the team likes her a lot and that is hard to do,” DunbarKruzan said. “As a setter you don’t get a lot of glory, but they are basically in control of our entire system. She has the unique trait of only caring about winning without taking credit.” Tallman says there has been a culture change since when she first joined the program and that there has been a much bigger emphasis on winning. She said that this has enabled them to criticize each other without taking it personally, because winning reigns supreme. “One of the best things that has changed about this program is that every single thing we do is for winning and is for the program and that’s a huge change,” Tallman said. “That’s the change that we wanted to make as freshmen. As a senior seeing it start to emerge is an amazing thing.”
The two girls eventually overlapped for a year on the high school varsity volleyball team and formed a bond, similar to that of best friends, which they carry on today. “Playing together made us stronger as sisters,” Danielle said. “That was our defining year. We were the first team at our school to win the regional championship and Megan was the starting setter as a freshman. All the seniors respected this little freshman running the team.”

where the differences between the candidates were extremely clear and most voters had made up their minds well before election day,” Fraga said.

The Fourth Debate TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
Donald Trump and and Hillary Clinton shake hands on stage after the second debate between the Republican and Democratic presidential candidates Oct. 9 at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. Since sports are a key part of American society, it’s important to consider the level of athleticism each candidate possesses.
Which presidential candidate is the better athlete? Richard Nixon and bowling. Woodrow Wilson and baseball. Barack Obama and basketball. Gerald Ford and football. William Howard Taft and getting out of the bathtub. Sports are a pivotal part of the American dream, and being president of the United States doesn’t prevent you from taking part. If you haven’t heard, there’s an election coming up and it’s time to find out which candidate — Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump — is more athletic. The rules are simple. We have established five categories: athleticism, physical attributes, speed, mental capabilities and intangibles. The contender who wins at least three is the champion. We hold these truths to be self-evident. Let the games begin. ATHLETICISM To know their athletic prowess, it’s important to know what sports these two excel in. According to her biography, “A Woman in Charge: The Life of Hillary Rodham Clinton,” she participated in sports such as swimming and baseball. Trump, on the other hand, was a member of his high school’s soccer, baseball and football teams. Since we have found a com-
monality in baseball, let’s break down their pitching form to see who is more athletic. Donning a Cubs cap, Clinton is definitely the most relaxed of the pair. What’s surprising about the picture are her great mechanics. Her right arm holding the ball is at a 90-degree angle, and she seems comfortable mid-pitch. That is firmly juxtaposed against Trump, who is furrowing his brow in such a dramatic way that it looks like it’s going to fall off. Furthermore, his right arm turns in such a fashion that seems unbearable. He may have thrown a faster pitch, but at what cost? He won’t last on the mound. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Clinton wins the first bout. PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES Now I know what you’re going to say. Trump can’t win this due to his tiny hands. That’s a valid point you bring up, but it’s not enough to give Clinton the immediate win. The pair is around the same age — 69 for Clinton, 70 for Trump — so that doesn’t factor in. What does play a huge role, however, is Trump’s spray tan. It’s so bright with the intensity of a thousand suns that it will blind the opponents. For once, Trump’s carroty glow is
beneficial. He wins the round and the ability to destroy your vision at a moment’s notice. SPEED Athleticism is one thing; speed is another. Just ask Shaquille O’Neal. Even though I requested one with both parties, we will not be able to get a foot race between the two candidates, just a political one. Thus, it is up to me to determine which candidate is faster. Trump’s speed can be found in his tweets, which he sends one after another in such a manic and speedy fashion that Usain Bolt must get tired keeping track. He throws these opinions up in almost no time at all, which makes him a superstar in the field of quickness. With that said, he can’t match Clinton at her top pace. I don’t know if you’ve seen this, but she deleted 33,000 e-mails. That’s impressive. My e-mails slowly but surely stack up in such a way that I get apprehension just turning on my phone. Clinton wins in a landslide. MENTAL CAPABILITIES It has to be Clinton. Right? Wrong. The best athletes are insane. Michael Jordan tried to break down his
GREG GOTTFRIED is a senior in journalism.
own teammates with expletives and insults, Babe Ruth ate hot dogs before games, and Brett Favre thought Wranglers were fashionable. You need an individual to be so wrapped up in his or herself without a care of the outside world to be a great athlete. Trump wins this one. Easily. INTANGIBLES When you look up the definition of intangible, it says “an intangible thing.” Well, that’s no help. I define intangible as something extra, something that can’t be measured by a stopwatch or tape measure. What makes you special? This comes down to one question. Who do I want on my team? As ruthless and neurotic as Clinton may be, I don’t believe that she will endanger my wellbeing. If Trump’s playing quarterback, he’s going to keep on throwing it over the middle until I get a concussion. If he’s playing point guard, I’m not getting the ball until there’s a second left on the shot clock. Give me Hillary Clinton on this one, but just barely.
FOOTBALL
Wilson talks areas of concern before Penn State game By Jordan Guskey jguskey@indiana.edu | @JordanGuskey
IU is now one win away from a bowl berth after its 33-27 victory against Rutgers on Saturday. It welcomes No. 12 Penn State to Bloomington next, and IU Coach Kevin Wilson updated the media on the status of the program in the lead up to the Nittany Lions’ arrival. Special teams IU’s special teams unit struggled mightily Saturday. Freshman Devonte Williams fumbled a kick return. Junior kicker Griffin Oakes didn’t connect on any field goals — two were blocked and one missed — and missed an extra point. Sophomore punter Joseph Gedeon botched a hold on an extra point, too, and it’s the hold that
Wilson points to as a possible point of explanation for the miscues. “I think our kicker is a little hesitant and a little late getting started because I think he’s not trusting where the spot is going to be,” Wilson said. “So sometimes you’re blocking certain guys based on some timing.” Penn State is a team that’s capable of wreaking havoc in field goal situations. In its win against Ohio State, Penn State took the lead late in the fourth quarter with a blocked field goal that was returned for a touchdown. The Nittany Lions also blocked a punt. Outside improving protection schemes, changes moving forward won’t completely hinge on physical exertion. “I think our kickers are getting a little psychotic, and we’ve got to work through the mental demon,
but I don’t think I need to pound the kids’ legs because there’s only so many swings in that leg,” Wilson said. “So we’ll work some fundamental work, and we’ll get it addressed with either scheme or personnel.” Offensive line Sophomore right tackle Brandon Knight’s injury in the first quarter of the win against Maryland led to a shakeup in the starting five against Rutgers. Senior guard Dan Feeney started at right tackle and spent time at both that position and right guard during the contest, while senior Jacob Bailey was back starting at right guard as he had during Feeney’s absence. Wilson said his decisions on who played when depended on the situation and whether or not he felt it was more important to get a
veteran guy on the line. Outside of the starting five, the first three guys he’ll likely look to for fresh legs or a change of pace are sophomore Delroy Baker and freshmen DaVondre Love and Simon Stepaniak. This will likely continue the rest of the regular season, as Knight doesn’t need surgery but would likely only be able to return for a bowl game, if the Hoosiers reach one. “He’s not day-to-day. He’s week to week, and he’s probably a few weeks out, and it’ll be a stretch here by the season’s end,” Wilson said. “We’ll see, but he’ll drink a lot of milk and rub a lot of dirt on it between now and then if that happens.” Penn State has recorded 11 sacks in its past three games. One win away IU has three chances to become bowl eligible, and it starts
with Penn State on Saturday. If the Hoosiers are going to get it done against the Nittany Lions, Wilson said it’ll take a much cleaner performance than that of this past weekend. IU’s process this week will be similar to those in the past, as Wilson doesn’t want the team to look too far down the road, such as its last two opponents in No. 2 Michigan and unranked Purdue. “You approach each game and do what you can to win each game, and you don’t look at the total. You don’t look at what’s to come,” Wilson said. “It’s just, here’s today and here’s the plan for this week, and you start it over.” All IU is talking about is what it will take to beat the strong, challenging Penn State team that occupies the next slot on their schedule.

Fiction author gives advice, talks research By Austin Faulds afaulds@indiana.edu | @a_faulds9615
When she was a little girl, IU alumna Aimie Runyan would read the popular teen drama “Sweet Valley High” book series. She said it was her first real experience with escape literature and led to her interest in historical fiction, a genre she believes is just as transporting as science fiction and fantasy. “I love being transported.” Runyan said. “I love learning about different time periods and histories. It’s what I love the most.” More than three decades after the first “Sweet Valley High” book printed, Runyan now has two historical novels published. She spoke to a group of students and faculty about her career and research on French history Monday. She discussed the filles du roi, which translates to “the king’s daughters,” a group of approximately 800 French women who were forced by King Louis XIV to travel to New France in the 17th century in order to increase the country’s population. In order to accomplish this increase, Runyan said the women were expected to bear several children after the move. The strategy was so successful that about two-thirds of modern French-Canadians can trace their history to the filles du roi, Runyan said. Distinguished women who are claimed descendants of these women include Angelina Jolie and Hillary Clinton, according to a recent report from CBC News. IU junior Colleen Couch said she was influenced by the story of the filles du roi. “I think there is something inspiring about them picking up their lives and changing them and all the flexibility that incurs with that,” Couch said. The filles du roi are the subject matter for both of Runyan’s works. She said it was a topic she learned about in one of her lectures during her time as a graduate student at IU. Inspired, Runyan said she decided to write a short story about the filles du roi for her creative writing class at IU. After transferring to the Univer-
sity of North Texas, she began expanding the story. “It read like the first chapter of a story, so I kept writing,” Runyan said. For her thesis as a master’s student at North Texas, Runyan said she asked her teacher if she could write a novel based on her short story on the filles du roi, a request that was denied. Instead, she decided to base her thesis entirely on the filles du roi. Very little research has been done on this topic, so she frequently traveled to and from Québec, Canada, to gather as many documents and books as she could about the women, Runyan said. Eventually, Runyan had to begin spending more time on writing the thesis instead of just learning about its topic. “At some point, you have to stop researching and start writing,” Runyan said. Runyan said she believes this advice applies to historical fiction writers just as much as informative writers. For fiction writing, she said writers should be more concerned about plot and characters than facts and figures. After completing her thesis, Runyan eventually returned to fiction writing. The first two books of her “Daughters of New France” series, “Promised to the Crown” and “Duty to the Crown,” were published this year. Both of these books delve into the lives of the filles du roi. Along with that, she said she believes writers of historical fiction should explore the five senses of the characters from the period in which the story is set. She said this can be done through going to museums and historical locations and studying the food, clothing and environment of this period. “When you go to a museum or a culture center, you will get a wealth of information,” Runyan said. “I cannot emphasize enough to you to take advantage of that.” Runyan said it was important for writers to find their own motivation to begin writing as a career as opposed to influence from others. “No one is going to go around and call you a writer,” Runyan said. “So you need to give yourself that permission.”

IU biology professor Heather Reynolds and IU sophomore Zoe Need separate native wildflowers for planting in Dunn’s Woods as a part of the Bloomington Urban Woodlands Project.
Project aims to keep campus natural By Mallory Haag mjhaag@indiana.edu | @MalloryHaag
Nature was celebrated and supported as two enthusiastic activists planted native wildflowers Monday morning in Dunn’s Woods. The event was held as a part of the Bloomington Urban Woodlands Project, a group that formerly met once a week to promote expanding vegetation in the Bloomington area, but now meets only for special occasions and events. IU sophomore Zoe Need and IU biology professor Heather Reynolds gathered to support the natural symbol that Dunn’s Woods is to students, Reynolds said. The two now meet most often as a part of special event in conjunction with volunteer groups on campus, Reynolds said. “Dunn’s Woods, of course, is a cultural icon for the campus,” Reynolds said. “It’s this beloved place that has all of this historical significance, but it also has natural significance. It provides this green oasis in the heart of the campus.” The purpose of the planting is to support the environment and to keep Bloomington’s campus alive and thriving, Reynolds said. “Definitely the woodlands and the forest are helping to make IU a de-

sirable place for people to want to come and do their education,” Reynolds said. Need said she has been working with the Bloomington Urban Woodlands Project for over two years. She said she participates to support the natural environment of IU’s campus. “I am from Bloomington, so I grew up on campus,” Need said. “I didn’t associate Bloomington with the buildings necessarily, I think that initially I associated it more with forests on campus.” Reynolds said the for-
ests at IU have contributed to it being named the second most beautiful campus in the nation according to USA Today. She said embracing this strengthens campus morale. “Culturally, its very significant in terms of people’s recreational and stress relief,” Reynolds said. “We’re just helping to preserve this historical landmark on campus by making it beautiful and aesthetic.” Reynolds and Need both agreed that nature made them feel at ease and at home, and that
contributing to nature was something they both felt strongly about. The Office of the Provost’s marketing campaign, “IU is Home,” showcases students discussing the dorms and buildings of campus reminding them of home. When Need thinks of IU as home, however, she thinks of a different aspect of campus. “When I think of IU being home, I think of walking through Dunn Woods and going on walks on campus when I was in elementary school and middle school.”
Mathers, School of Public Health partner for arts panel By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13
The “Siyazama: Traditional Arts, Education and AIDS in South Africa” exhibition at the Mathers Museum of World Cultures has brought together the Themester: Beauty initiative and the culture of healing connected to art. The exhibition features the traditional crafts made as part of the Siyazama project and shows how art is used to foster discussion on HIV and AIDS realities and prevention. The IU School of Public Health will sponsor this week’s panel discussion, “The Art of the Matter,” at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday at Mathers. IU doctoral student Tapati Dutta and master’s of public health students Grace Sededji and Angela Onsongo will engage in a discussion on the topic of art and its role in AIDS education. Nicole Anderson, director of student immersion and global health experiences at the School of Public Health, said the panelists were selected both because of their involvement with arts education in various parts of Africa and their perspectives as international students. “Each student is not from the U.S. and is bringing a unique perspective to contrast HIV/AIDS education in Africa from the U.S. and from their own background and culture, as well as the research and homework they’ve done in preparation for this event,” Anderson said.
Anderson said Dutta has worked in Uganda and will share her experience with the area’s use of art in HIV and AIDS education. Osongo is originally from Kenya and will speak about art in education programs there. Sededji is a student from Congo and will focus on the use of dance. Anderson said the idea of students being the panelists stems from the sentiment that, with art as a form of education, one does not necessarily have to fall into the academic category of expert to open the discussion on these issues. “The reason I wanted to explore students as panelists is because to go into a community and talk about a topic so delicate it doesn’t take an expert,” Anderson said. “Someone doesn’t have to have a Ph.D. to bring this topic up, to utilize the arts to communicate and educate or make people comfortable with it.” Sarah Hatcher, head of programs and education for the museum, said the talk will show how students engage with the topic of healing and expression on a worldwide scale, and this series has lent itself to greater understanding of arts in connection with wellness. “I look forward to seeing the ways in which IU students have put their research into practice for the betterment of communities across the globe,” Hatcher said. “Learning more about the ways the arts can drive the physical well being of a community
has been informative and inspiring.” Hatcher said the series of Themester events at Mathers thus far has shown tangible examples of how art acts as a force of healing around the world. The Siyazama series is also produced in collaboration with the School of Public Health. “It’s been great to be able to partner with the School of Health in Bloomington to explore the intersection of arts and health from these different perspectives,” Hatcher said. Students will learn more about how their peers have been interacting with these issues and helping to foster solutions, Hatcher said. “It’s an opportunity for students to meet and talk with students who have gone out into the world and made a difference,” Hatcher said. “It’s a chance for them to become inspired to undertake their own work and make it impactful.” Anderson said students should take advantage of the opportunity to walk through the Siyazama exhibition to appreciate all the work being done with arts as a healing force. “The whole goal is to engage students,” Anderson said. “We really tried to design this panel for audience engagement and generate some good discussion on the topic, maybe to inspire other students to explore that as a field of interest upon graduation.”

MEET THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES HILLARY CLINTON, DEMOCRAT
DONALD TRUMP, REPUBLICAN
GARY JOHNSON, LIBERTARIAN
Running mate Tim Kaine
Running mate Mike Pence
Running mate William Weld
Clinton, 69, served as the 67th United States Secretary of State from 2009 to 2013, junior U.S. Senator representing New York from 2001 to 2009, first lady of the U.S. while her husband Bill Clinton was president from 1993 to 2001 and first lady of Arkansas during his governorship from 1979 to 1981 and again from 1983 to 1992. During her time as first lady of the United States, Clinton helped create the State Children’s Health Insurance Program and focused on adoption and family safety. Clinton ran for president in 2008 but lost the Democratic primary to Barack Obama. Clinton is the first female to obtain a presidential nomination from a major party and the first first lady to seek any elected office. Clinton’s platform includes a fair tax system, an expansion on disability and LGBTQ rights and racial justice — particularly in the criminal justice system — improved treatment for addiction and substance abuse, debt-free college and taking on student debt, improving Obamacare, imposing a risk fee on the largest financial institutions and improving equality between genders. Clinton supports paid sick leave, strong working unions, naturalization of immigrants, smart pollution and efficiency standards. She backs a woman’s right to choose to have an abortion and wants to see action taken to prevent climate change.
Trump, 70, is the chairman and CEO of the Trump Organization, the principal holding company for his real estate ventures and other business interests. Trump has branded facilities worldwide. He hosted and co-produced the NBC show The Apprentice from 2004 to 2015. As of 2016, he was listed by Forbes as the 324th wealthiest person in the world and 156th in the United States. Trump sought the presidency under the Reform Party in 2000 but dropped out of the race before primary voting . Trump has never served in political office. Trump’s platform includes U.S.-China trade deals, opposition to trade agreements such as NAFTA and the Trans-Pacific Partnership, stronger enforcement of immigration laws together with building a wall along the U.S.- Mexico border, reform of veterans’ care and the repeal and replacement of Obamacare and tax cuts. Following the November 2015 Paris attacks, Trump called for a temporary ban on Muslim immigration to the United States. Trump supports gun rights and the death penalty. He doubts man-made climate change and wants to deport all undocumented immigrants from the country. He describes himself as pro-life, even in the cases of rape or incest, and does not want to allow any refugees into the country.
Johnson, 63, served as the Republican governor of New Mexico from 1995-2003. He was also the Libertarian Party’s nominee for president in 2012. Johnson, prior to his political career, started a construction company and founded the OUR America Initiative, a nonprofit that promotes fiscal responsibility and civil liberties. When he did not win the presidency in 2012, Johnson created the OUR America super PAC intended to focus on libertarian-minded causes. In July 2014, he became the CEO of Cannabis Sativa Inc., a Nevada-based company that aims to sell medical cannabis products. He stepped down from this position once he decided to run for president again. Johnson’s platform includes balancing the budget, enacting term limits, tax reform, focusing on civil liberties, enhancing religious freedom, supporting America’s veterans and militarizing national borders. Johnson supports the Second Amendment, a woman’s right to choose in cases of abortion, Medicare and Medicaid reform and the abolishment of Obamacare. He does not believe the government should interfere with environmental reforms geared toward reversing global warming.
