downtown Bloomington, to backlash over COVID-19 vaccine requirements, the summer has been filled with news you need to know.

In this special edition, you can read some of our coverage from this summer.

In June, businesses on Kirkwood Avenue were flooded in a Friday night storm. A lightning bolt struck a transformer and the streets went dark. Water rose to levels as high as five feet, leaving cars stranded and businesses damaged.

Masks will be required indoors on all IU campuses for all students, staff, faculty and visitors effective Thursday, Aug. 5, according to an email from the university.

This announcement follows a recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on July 27 that fully vaccinated people wear masks indoors in areas with high transmission rates as COVID-19 cases in the United States continue to rise.

“We stress that wearing masks indoors is the only thing that is changing, though,” the email said.

According to the email, IU’s reported COVID-19 vaccination rate is approaching 85% of all constituents.

Hello, and welcome back to Bloomington and IU! This summer was full of notable events.

From IU’s updates on COVID-19 policies to a flood that left Kirkwood Ave under multiple feet of water– you'll find that and more inside this special edition of the Indiana Daily Student.

The summer has wrapped up, and while there will be a new staff in the fall one thing will absolutely remain: our commitment to serving the community by providing updates on news, sports, arts and much more.

This fall, students and fans will pack Memorial Stadium to the brim hoping to watch Tom Allen and the football Hoosiers create more Hoosier magic. IU Auditorium, IU Cinema and more beloved arts and culture institutions will resume in-person programming after a year

and half, inviting the community, especially the 2024 and 2025 graduating classes, to experience world class performances for the first time.

This semester also brings wholesale change in our campus leaders. Dr. Pamela Whitten will lead her first semester as IU’s President, the first woman to lead the IU System. John Applegate will serve as Interim Provost, Walter Gantz will lead as Interim Dean of the Media School and IU’s own Mike Woodson will coach the men’s basketball team, among other leadership changes.

After the last year and a half, it’s clear no one knows what the future holds.

Whatever comes next, the Indiana Daily Student is here to inform and serve you — the students, the staff and the faculty of

IU, and the residents of Bloomington.

Follow us on social media @ IDSNews, get daily updates at IDSNews.com and check back here at this newsstand every Thursday for our print edition.

“He needs to rest in peace at home” After a Bloomington restaurant worker and immigrant died from COVID-19, family seeks closure

By Lilly St. Angelo lstangel@iu.edu | @lilly_st_ang

It had been three months since his last paycheck.

Alejandro Eduardo Pani Tecuapetla, 64, was forced to stop working at Olive Garden in April 2020 when the pandemic caused the restaurant to close. He was itching to get back to work when a family member at Juannita’s Restaurant called him in late June last year.

We need some extra help, they said. Can you come and work? He said yes.

His daughter, Alejandrina Pani Marquez, was worried. People were being careless, not wearing masks, going to the lake and getting together.

“Just make sure you guys use the masks and wash your hands,” she told her dad.

Two weeks later, Eduardo was in the hospital with COVID-19. A month and a half after that, he was dead.

Eduardo was one of more than 109,000 Hispanic people in the U.S. who have died of COVID-19 as of mid-July. Hispanic people have died at 2.3 times the rate of white, non-Hispanic people from the coronavirus, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

As vaccines bring normalcy back to everyday life in the U.S., Eduardo’s family is one of hundreds of thousands of families still grieving and seeking closure for their loved ones who died from COVID-19.

Memories linger in the spaces he used to fill. “What if” scenarios flash through his daughter’s mind.

His son, 30, was just getting to know him. His 21-year-old granddaughter misses his annoying calls.

“This virus really changed our life,” Alejandrina said. “It was like a car accident — you see him one day and the next day he’s gone.” ***

When he returned to work, Eduardo wore a mask like his daughter asked him to. But one day he served a woman who was visibly sick and coughing. He washed his hands afterwards, but Alejandrina will always wonder if this was how he was infected.

After work on July 4, Eduardo stopped by Alejandrina’s 5-year-old son Alex’s small, outdoor birthday gathering. He told his family he was going to go lie down because he was feeling sick. Two days later, Alejandrina took him to the hospital, and doctors diagnosed him with pneumonia. The hospital tested him for COVID-19, but that early in the pandemic, tests took a few days, so the doctor sent him home.

The same day, Alejandrina came down with a fever. Soon, her mom, Maria, was sick too. Her dad’s health declined quickly. After three more days, Eduardo began struggling to breathe, so Alejandrina took both her parents to the hospital.

It was the last time she would see him alive.

The next month was chaotic.

Besides managing her own symptoms, Alejandrina checked in with the hospital every day about both of her parents. She worried about the language barrier for her dad, who knew English but wasn’t fluent. For the first couple weeks, her dad’s doctor would call her often. He was improving and her mom was struggling. On Thursday, July 16, she talked to her dad on the phone. He asked her if she would pick him up the following Monday.

But that weekend, Eduardo took a turn for the worse. He was put on a ventilator and given a new doctor. This doctor didn’t call Alejandrina at all, and instead Alejandrina called his nurses every day.

After nearly a month in the hospital, her mom had improved enough to be sent home on Aug. 9. She still had the virus and had to be closely monitored in her fragile state.

But Eduardo was still on a ventilator in the hospital. *** Practically everyone in the Bloomington Latino community knew Eduardo, Alejandrina said. A

native of Puebla, Mexico, he grew up in a town of vibrantly colored buildings, a bustling outdoor market and a volcano as its backdrop.

Seeking better work opportunities than Puebla or the southwest U.S. could give him, Eduardo moved to Bloomington nearly 30 years ago to

work in his friends’ restaurant.

Eventually, he brought his wife and two kids to Bloomington and worked daily to establish a life.

More than anything, though, Eduardo wanted to build a Latino community in Bloomington and asked the priests for a Spanish Mass at

“He wanted to survive in this country and he wanted the Spanish community to be together and come to church, like don’t just work, work, work,” Alejandrina said.

Customers and coworkers knew Eduardo for his happy and generous nature.

Matt Mulligan was one of Eduardo’s customers at several of the restaurants he served at throughout the years, including La Charreada in Bloomington. On busy IU game days when the restaurant was packed, Eduardo already knew the Mulligans’ orders and put them in before the family even sat down.

“He always made us feel like we were at his family’s table,” Mulligan said. “It was always good to be recognized.”

On Fridays, Eduardo would bring beers for the whole restaurant staff to enjoy together after the hectic night was done. It was something to look forward to, a way to get through the grueling work of running a restaurant.

He would sometimes have a beer on his days off with Alejandrina’s husband and tell him how important it was to stick around for his 5-year-old son, Alex. Eduardo helped raise his daughter’s first two children, whom she had with a previous partner. He filled in as a parental figure when Alejandrina was working and spoiled his grandkids whenever he could Content warning: This article discusses topics that may be disturbing to some readers, including issues surrounding suicide.

Eduardo had a complex relationship with one of his own sons, Salvador Cuahuizo, 30, whom he had with a partner outside his marriage. Eduardo only got to know Salvador when he was about 15.

But once they were in contact, Salvador said Eduardo was always there and supported him through low points. He remembers his dad as a character, always dancing and trying to lift people’s spirits.

“When someone was serious, he would go up to them and say, ‘Why are you so serious?’” Salvador said.

Eduardo liked to keep himself occupied, always busy fixing his car and doing chores when he wasn’t at work. He lived in the present with no desire to put things off, Alejandrina said. As he got older, she wanted her dad to rest more and eventually go back to Mexico.

“Dad, you are getting old,” she would tell him. “You have to go back so you can relax.”

“No,” he would say, “you relax when you’re dead.” *** By the second week of August, Eduardo was not doing well. It had been nearly a month since he was put on a ventilator. Because Alejandrina could not visit her dad due to the COVID-19 rules at the hospital, she would pray for him regularly.

sibling Leticia got to the hospital, he was unconscious, swollen and looked exhausted. They decided together to unhook him from the oxygen and let him go.

Salvador went in first to say goodbye. He pulled up YouTube and searched José José, a singer Eduardo loved.

The first hit was “Lo Pasado Pasado.” In English it translates to “The Past is the Past,” lyrics that matched Salvador’s

*** After her dad’s death, Alejandrina could not help but wonder: would my dad have survived if he were not an immigrant?

There was the language barrier, which, according to IU Health’s non-discrimination policy should not have been an issue due to the existence of translators. But because Alejandrina wasn’t

zen, her fear is layered with the knowledge of disrespect that many immigrants endure daily.

Alejandrina had Eduardo’s body cremated. Burials are too expensive here, she said, and sending his body back to Mexico was impossible at the time. A small group of family gathered for the funeral at St. Paul’s, a scene so different from what the ceremony would have looked like

to her mom’s house because it reminded her too much of her grandpa. When Eduardo was alive, whenever he would miss a call, he would call Gabby, even if she wasn’t the one who called.

“Hey, did you call me?” he’d say.

It happened so often that it became an annoyance.

Now all she wants is for him to call again.

Alejandrina said she had

ETHAN LEVY Alejandrina Pani Marquez and her mother Maria A. Marquez. When Maria came down with COVID-19 Alejandrina took her and Eduardo to the hospital.

One day, she was praying in her car during a thunderstorm, rain pouring down and lightning flashing around her. Please God, help my dad, he needs you so much, she prayed.

To her surprise, she says she heard a response — not from God, but from her dad.

Let me go, don’t be scared, I’ll be fine, he said.

She cried, not wanting to believe the voice in her head was real. Alejandrina has gotten premonitions since she was little, and she said they are always accurate. She was told her grandmother could also hear voices that told her what was going to happen.

On the night of Aug. 15, Eduardo stopped breathing.

The hospital called Alejandrina in the morning, telling her that staff had revived him but he was still having trouble breathing, even on the ventilator. The doctor said the only way they would be able to save him was a risky emergency surgery in Indianapolis that would leave him permanently frail.

Alejandrina’s first instinct was to say yes to the surgery. But when she, her then 20-year-old daughter Gabby, Salvador and her other half-

wish to not focus on the time he didn’t have with his dad.

He told his dad he loved him for the first time and cried.

Gabby had been away when Alejandrina brought Eduardo to the hospital, so she let her daughter go into the room to see her dad instead of herself. When Gabby stepped into the room, Alejandrina spoke to her father in her head, willing the words to reach him.

I love you, I’m sorry for not doing the right things, not doing what I was supposed to.

I just want you to forgive me and I just want you to know that I love you so much, she said.

A feeling of peace spread through her, and she felt as though a breath had been released.

In the hospital room, Gabby had taken off her mask and face shield so her abuelo could see her.

“I’m here for you Papa,” she said, “I’m here.”

He opened his eyes and looked at her, taking his last breath in her arms.

Gabby left his room, crying.

“He’s gone,” she said.

“I know,” Alejandrina said.

there, she still wonders whether he understood everything that was happening and communicated his needs to doctors and nurses.

There was also a phone call that made Alejandrina uneasy. During the week before Eduardo died, someone from the hospital called to ask if her dad was a U.S. citizen.

She told them no. Eduardo was legally living in the United States with a work visa.

When she asked if this affected his treatment, they assured her it did not.

Jonathon Hosea, IU Health’s public relations manager, said via email that citizenship status does not play a role in treatment at IU Health. He said the reason the hospital may need to know citizenship status is for insurance coverage. Even if a patient has insurance, there may be other coverage available that insurance specialists apply for when they arrive, which requires information including citizenship status.

Alejandrina still wonders, though. She knows anyone who loses someone probably has such thoughts, and she does not blame the hospital for Eduardo’s death. But because her dad was not a citi-

in Mexico.

Rev. Dennis Woerter, the priest who performs St. Paul’s Spanish Mass and who led Eduardo’s funeral, said the grieving process for everyone in his congregation has been more difficult during COVID-19 because of isolation and the inability to gather. But he said the church has been able to offer small services for people who have died in the past year and he said he thinks this has helped in a small way.

“One of the most cathartic things to witness is the lowering of the casket in the grave or the burial or actually having some kind of service,” he said.

Traditionally in Mexico, the whole family gathers for nine days of prayer after the burial of a loved one. But because extended family members were afraid Eduardo’s family still had COVID-19, the family’s grief dragged on in isolation instead.

Alejandrina’s mother, still delirious from her own brush with death, did not believe her husband was dead for weeks. Favian, Alejandrina’s 15-year-old son, fell into depression and considered suicide. Gabby stopped going

to be strong for her family this year, and that her dad prepared her for it. She was also determined to bring them closure.

The first anniversary of a death is special in Mexican culture. Because of this, Alejandrina wanted to get Eduardo’s remains back to Puebla before Aug. 17. After weeks of planning, they determined that her mother will fly to Puebla with Eduardo’s ashes in late July.

He will be laid to rest in a small plot of land set aside by his father, who wanted his wife and children and grandchildren to be buried around him. He will once again be in the shadow of the volcano, near the bustling outdoor markets and the colorful buildings of Puebla. But he will also be with God, Alejandrina said, waiting to be reunited with all of his family.

“He needs to rest in peace at home,” Alejandrina said.

“He was working for too long.

He was working every day and he needs to go rest.”

Davidson said they went into the Root Cellar, where the staff had put candles out for light. He said he tried to get an Uber home but none were available. Davidson and his friend were able to walk back to his friend’s apartment on Eighth and Grant through ankle deep water, he said.

Uber Driver Matt Rogers, 46, said he picked a passenger up at 10:40 p.m. to take them downtown when the lightning and thunder started. Once they got downtown, most of the buildings had no power and visibility was zero, he said.

“Around that time, people became extremely desperate for rides,” Rogers said. “But after a couple of rides, there was absolutely no way to get to people.”

Rogers said he saw multiple cars on Kirkwood that were flooded and people wading through waistdeep water. On his drive home, Rogers said many of the traffic lights were out on College Avenue and Walnut Street and some cars were driving straight through them.

When Clifford Bakehorn, 33, was standing outside of Malibu Grill, he said he saw lightning hit the transformer, heard a boom and saw bright green before the lights went out.

When he was three blocks away from his house, the car he was in got stuck in a puddle of water.

His friend was able to pick him up in a Humvee and they went to Kirkwood to see if anyone needed help.

When they got to downtown Bloomington around 1 a.m. he said he saw a car that was almost on its side stuck on the yellow bollards that are used to block Kirkwood off for outdoor dining.

Bakehorn said he saw trees that had fallen over on Washington Street, flooding against the windows of Goodfellas Pizzeria and other Kirkwood businesses and vacant, flooded cars on Kirkwood Avenue.

While Bakehorn said he was fine once he got home, he wasn’t sure how others had fared around town.

“I was very much concerned for friends and family here in town,” he said.

IU’s change in masking policy follows a vote by Monroe County Board of Commissioners for masks to be worn in indoor public places

regardless of vaccination status.

Monroe County is currently in the yellow advisory level for COVID-19, meaning there are more than 10 weekly cases per 100,000 residents.

A yellow advisory indicates moderate spread of the virus and local health officials are advised to consider restrictions on sizes of gatherings, restrictions on common areas in workplaces and reviewing plans for face

coverings and social distancing for school extracurricular activities and assemblies.

IU will continue to monitor local health conditions and will make changes for individual campuses in line with local data for that campus, the email said.

Black Lives Matter.

To some, this statement is one of hate and division, but to others it means peace, unity and equality.

When I say Black Lives Matter, I say it with pride because I know what it means to me. This statement acknowledges the systemic oppression and violence which has plagued Black, brown and other marginalized communities for centuries.

Black Lives Matter is a statement of power, reversing the years of torment Black people endured by saying enough is enough. Black people demand to be seen as human and as equal to everyone else. Our lives will no longer be shed in vain. We matter.

IU sophomore and Black Lives Matter mural co-organizer, Joa’Quinn Griffin, said Black Lives Matter means all

Inclusivity Matters

lives can't matter until Black ones do.

“We have to give a voice to the oppressed and give equity to those who are not privileged based on systemic racism and a system so flawed and against a certain type of people based on looks,” Griffin said.

For the past year, I have been working alongside Griffin to create an all-inclusive Black Lives Matter mural on the campus of Indiana University.

The project began in September of 2020 when Griffin noticed there was a hidden Black Lives Matter flag located on the exterior of the IMU. At the time, Griffin and I served on the diversity, equity and inclusion committee for IU Student Government, which I was the executive director for.

Griffin brought the flag to our committee’s attention and I also noted the existence of the statement “Black Lives Matter” on the lobby steps of the Biddle Hotel, which is

located within the IMU. As a result of this conversation, Griffin and I decided it would be best to make a more significant impact on campus with this statement.

From there, Griffin and I decided it would be best to take a more detached approach from IU Student Government to ensure this initiative would be successful.

My organization, Black Collegians, came on board from there as the official student organization behind the mural initiative.

The mural was mostly funded through the IU Funding board, as Griffin and I presented our proposal to the committee and were awarded funds to cover costs for supplies, artists and logistics.

We also received donations from community members and the Division of Student Affairs.

The idea to make the mural inclusive of other marginalized communities was quite intentional, as we recognize the systemic issues

faced by Black people are also faced by others. Griffin and I also understood Black people cannot be in the fight for justice alone and needed to represent unity within the mural.

“We wanted to give a voice to everyone who is underrepresented,” Griffin said. “The mural speaks to intersections and allies and each letter tells its own story.”

Nonetheless, Black people are not monolithic and our identities intertwine with many others. These different identities all conjoined with one another form an identity based on intersectionality.

As a result, each letter represents a different marginalized community. From body positivity to Islamophobia, anyone can walk up to the mural and identity with at least one of the letters and feel seen.

The mural process began with slower motions, and most people we initially talked with were not completely sold on the idea. One major

concern was because of the violence experienced last year, the mural would create a rise in the need for security.

However, during the spring of the past academic year, more people began to see the importance of the mural and the statement it would bring to campus.

The mural initiative was approved through the City of Bloomington and IU campus leadership, including former President Michael McRobbie and former Provost Lauren Robel. Griffin and I worked closely with Thomas Morrison, IU capital planning and facilities Vice President, to solidify a location for the mural.

The mural is located at 7th St. and Jordan Ave. between the Neal Marshall Black Culture Center and the Office of the Vice Provost for Diversity, Equity and Multicultural Affairs. The location of the mural was very intentional as Jordan Ave. Is being renamed after originally being named after David Starr Jordan, a known eugenicist.

While Griffin and I led the mural initiative, we had others join along in the process.

Our artists, Katelyn Scott, Olivia Roath and Ronny Booker all helped bring the vision of the mural to life. Also, Damorion Page, Black Collegians Vice President, played an important role in helping coordinate volunteers and finalize logistics of the mural site.

The mural could not have been completed without the help of over 40 volunteers who came out to work for the three days the mural was being painted.

The painting process spanned from the morning of July 3 to the evening of July 5.

Within the following two weeks, vandals have already begun their acts of hatred to destroy the mural with tire burns. The mural however will not be destroyed, and plans to make minor revisions are currently in works, and will be considered for the years to come.

“This mural is the epitome of inclusion,” Griffin said.

Derek Chauvin sentenced to 22.5 years

By Donyá Collins doscoll@iu.edu | @artbyyay

This story originally published June 29, 2021.

On Friday June 25th, Derek Chauvin was sentenced to 22 and a half years for the murder of George Floyd.

Twenty-two and a half years.

This is a moment of joy, but also a moment to think.

Let this sentencing signal the beginning of an era. An era in which cops and racist white people can’t just murder for the sake of racism, there are consequences to your actions.

I don’t think 22 and a half years is enough. Especially when Chauvin is only expected to serve 15 when the maximum sentence is 30. I think Chauvin deserves life. The world watched as he knelt on George Floyd’s neck sparking the controversial line of “8 minutes 46 seconds.”

As if the murder wasn’t

enough, this isn’t the first time Chauvin has kneeled on someone’s neck. There are six other people from as far back as 2015, who also went through the same type of interaction with the officer turned convict.

Monroe Skinaway witnessed Chauvin using excessive force after calling the police to report his grandson’s car missing.

Officers ended up arresting a man named Sir Rilee Peet, but here is where Skinaway’s testimony gets interesting.

According to MPRnews, Skinaway recalls seeing the officer on top of Peet and the officer put Peet’s head, face down, in a rain puddle.

This was something not put in Chauvin’s report of the incident.

“He said, ‘I can’t breathe — can I just put my head up,’” Skinaway said. “And they just held his face in the water, and I couldn’t see a purpose for that.”

This testimony raises

further questions about the police code of conduct.

What kind of officer, who has a history of cases like this where they routinely have to investigate excessive force and racked up 18 complaints in 19 years, is allowed to still be a cop?

Why are we relying on the police to report their own actions to their superiors?

Even in the focus of the Floyd case, Chauvin didn’t report to his boss immediately that he kneeled on Floyd’s neck. When he did, he did not say it was for more than nine minutes. In fact he simply told his supervisor, Sgt. David Pleoger, Floyd had a “medical emergency.”

Now explain to me this, if Chauvin saw his reaction as appropriate, why would he lie to his superior? If this sort of incident was in line with police conduct, why did a police dispatcher call Sgt. Pleoger and inform him of the incident.

“She called to say she didn’t mean to be a snitch, but she’d seen something while viewing a camera that she thought was concerning,” the dispatcher said to Pleoger, according to his testimony.

Derek Chauvin was a ticking time bomb, and it was simply a matter of time before he killed someone.

According to the MPRnews article, he had already sent an asthmatic man into the hospital for over a day; he just needed a reason.

Why is a murderer like this only facing 22 and a half years when there are men, like Allen Russel, serving life for possession of 1.5 ounces of weed? Men who will spend the rest of their lives in jail or at the very least 30 years. But men like Chauvin, after brutally murdering someone, can just walk away to kill again.

Derek Chauvin is a menace to society who never deserves to walk free in society again.

Jeremy Morris won the IU Board of Trustees election on July 30th, 2021. Morris is the first Black male to be elected into the board of trustees and youngest elected trustee on the board.

He plans to make IU more affordable for students, decrease student loan debt for IU graduates through the development of student loan forgiveness plans and redeveloping IU’s strategy and approach to promoting equity, diversity and inclusion.

“I was very clear and unapologetic about what I was standing for in my candidate statement. I spent a lot of time carving it out. I already knew what I wanted to do and it was pressing for students but I was trying to make sure I made the best statement that exemplified me,” Morris said.

Morris describes his campaign process for the election as interesting.

“With COVID in place, it was challenging for all the candidates to find ways to interact with people, but what I had to my advantage was I know social media,” Morris said. “So I wanted to use that to communicate with more people but also to meet Alumni where they are.”

Morris used the second part of his campaign to provide more background about himself.

“I wanted people to know that I am funny, I am serious, a professional, a brother and a son,” Morris said.

He is overjoyed about his election, and looks forward to working with the rest of the board.

“I do not take it for granted because a lot of people put trust in me,” Morris said.

“For me this is a very important step in IU’s history.

We just had the first female president and I am the first Black male elected trustee.

It is a lot of powerful things that are happening and I hope that current students and alumni can be encouraged that the university is moving in a direction that is advancing.”

The board consists of nine trustees, six appointed by the governor and three elected by alumni, and will now have three Black members. Two were elected, Jeremy Morris and Donna Spears, and one, W. Quinn Buckner, was appointed.

“There is still a lot of work to do but I am very grateful to be a part of distinguished individuals on the board of trustees who make the decisions for Indiana university,” Morris said.

Spears was reelected for her second term while Morris and Buckner will be serving their first terms of three years each.

“I am not expecting to shift anyone’s mindset when I enter a room but what I do expect as part of this process is to add perspective. Because when your perspective is not there and you are not heard, that is where the problem is,” Morris said. “ I knew I wanted to be the voice for a cross section of generations who weren't necessarily represented.”

Morris says his plans now are to get more acquainted with the other trustees before he officially starts attending meetings in August.

Welcome Back Edition 2021 | Indiana Daily Student | idsnews.com

Meet Dominique Kemp Dominique Kemp is the first Black student to receive a Ph.D. in Mathematics

By Agness Lungu slungu@iu.edu | Dominique Kemp got his undergraduate degree in Mathematics from Stanford University and came to IU for his Ph.D. in Mathematics.

“I double majored in mathematics and physics at Stanford University until junior year when I decided to concentrate purely on Mathematics,” Kemp Said.

Kemp was born and raised in Lansing, Michigan, and was homeschooled from middle school to high school.

While at Stanford, he was part of the Administ Christian Fellowship, an organization involved in different volunteer and charitable efforts. Kemp also played the piano.

At IU, he tutored students in mathematics and while continuing to play the piano. Kemp hosted two piano recitals at the Bloomington Seventh-day Advetist Church and voluntarily played piano at nursing homes.

“I was the closest the students got to having a Black mathematics professor here at IU when I was an associate instructor,” Kemp said.

“In 2018, I believe, I became the only one in the Mathematics Ph.D. program when the last of the other two Black students departed from the program.”

Kemp described his journey at IU as interesting. He said there were no Black professors in mathematics at IU and he has been the only Black student in the Ph.D program since 2018.

“The combined effect of being the only Black person in the department and having a research area that was not represented well here, I do Harmonic Analysis and there’s only one professor who does work in that field,” Kemp said.

“So taking those two factors of isolation just made this matter of underrepresentation all the more painful for me at the time.”

Kemp plans to do philanthropic work to support graduate and undergraduate students. He also wants to reach out to high school and middle school students, especially those from underrepresented communities.

“I think a lot of students don’t go into math because it seems daunting to face the spectre of isolation, but I can play a part now that I have a degree,” Kemp said. “I want to create more awareness of Theoretical Mathematics because I think it made it harder for me because growing up I had no idea there was such a thing as Theoretical Mathematics research.”

Paul Kirk, a mathematics professor at IU, has known Kemp for 6 years, and describes him as intelligent and humble.

“He’s a super smart guy and very well trained. I’ve heard him play piano and he is very nice in all my interactions with him,” Kirk said. “He did really well here and let’s just keep trying and hopefully Dominique is the start of a beautiful story.”

Kemp will be doing mathematics research at the University of Wisconsin for the next four years, and hopes to be a mathematics professor afterwards. He wants to encourage anyone who is interested in mathematics, but feels discouraged that they won’t understand, that the field is worth exploring at the same time.

“The light bulb does click one and the skill set that we gain in Mathematics Education is something that can affect our performance in other professions like law or business.”

Kemp will also be going to the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, a research center for theoretical and intellectual inquiry, for his postdoctoral position.

Kemp said getting this degree is his proudest achievement.

“No matter what happens for the rest of my life this accomplishment will always be the most important because I started off with very little encouragement and very little hope and it never seemed like it was going to happen until 4 or 5 months ago when I had job offers,” Kemp said. “So just to be striving in the midst of so much discouragement I don’t think anything else I do in life will compare.”

BLACK VOICES

The life of a Black Woman

By Donyá Collins doscoll@iu.edu | @artbyyay

This poem was originally published Aug. 5, 2021.

To be a Queen in such a turbulent world, Being a Black woman, it ain’t no joke.

It’s a blessing and a curse.

To know everyone on Earth came from someone who looked like you.

To be a manifestation of resilience, strength and divine beauty.

Our Afro to look like the trees and a body that rolls like the seas.

Our skin resembling the Earth and the ability to hold our head up high despite the world trying to knock us down.

But we’re also at the bottom of the social totem pole.

Dealt the hands of racism, colorism and sexism.

Growing up taught there was such a thing as too dark, too big or too ghetto.

Black women can’t seem to do anything but start your trends, make your tik tok dances, be sexualized and cast aside.

As if our only meaning and purpose is to be used for

someone else’s profit.

Being told don’t wear bonnets in public but have your hair straight, Afros are “unkempt and unclean” .

Your curl pattern isn’t loose enough to be desirable, being judged for protective styles.

White women walking up to you calling you “sis” touching your hair or asking “is that your real hair”and assuming if you wear weave, you must be “bald-headed”.

As if wigs aren’t a protective style.

Newsflash Karen, I need protective styles to keep my hair healthy not because I’m bald.

And I’m not “using your hair” last I checked no one is getting German/ Irish/ Swiss bundles.

But that’s not even the half of it.

We have to deal with the media calling us whores for embracing a sexuality they demanded we have.

We have to question whether our men even like us or are they bashing us while seeing our white women as a token of success.

But the worst part is

watching women like Sandra Bland, Michelle Cusseaux, Ma’ Kyia Bryant, Tanisha Anderson, Mya Hall, Alexis Christian, India Kager, Breonna Taylor and so many more die.

To have to scream #SayHerName against those who see this fight as a Black male issue.

To be pushed behind and be almost invisible in the fight against police brutality.

Prayers for our Black men but silence for our women at times.

Watching your government only prosecute for the bullets missed and throw settlements at the families they can’t dismiss. As if money equates to a lost sister, mother, friend, wife.

How do you get up every morning as a Black woman with that weight everyday?

To live in rebellion, in spite of the criteria society has?

And we do it everyday facing persecution, misogyny and discrimination.

And that resilience, that unwavering strength makes me proud that I am a Black woman.

‘Is there more?’ A poem by RJ Crawford

By RJ Crawford rjcrawfo@iu.edu | @rjcrawfxrd

Is there more to this torment in my own backyard?

I look at the sky and see nothing but the limit, But I can’t focus on it when it’s covered by dark clouds and a sea of Imbalance.

Is there more to this discomfort?

When I remove myself from the table, My hands are still attached to the knife and the fork.

I’m hungry for more.

Is there a better place beyond my own?

I sit and dream about what could be, Instead of focusing on what is, at times.

But if I think of a place further than this, maybe I’ll reach it.

Maybe I can take the knife and the fork with me, And feed off of the livelihood of others.

Maybe their meat, rice, and grains will be plentiful for me.

In hopes of finding that there is more.

Is there more than what is happening now?

I mean people always say “everything happens for a reason,” Some things don’t last all season.

But what is the reason?

Can you tell me?

Is there more?

What do I have to look forward to?

My Black skin offending you?

Is there more?

Please tell me.

Show me.

Preach it to the choir.

Is there more?

When will the good transpire?

But what if right now is good.

Despite all of the heartaches and mistakes, What if I am exactly where I am supposed to be.

I am exactly where and who I should be.

Yes, there is more, I can see it on the horizon.

No gloomy day will keep me away.

Not today, not tomorrow, not ever.

There is more.

‘Hundreds of memorable moments’ Michael McRobbie reflects on his 14-year presidency

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @ByLCNorton

This story was originally published July 6, 2021.

Former IU President Michael McRobbie took office July 1, 2007. Before he was named IU’s 18th president, McRobbie served in multiple roles at IU including Vice President for Research, Vice President for Academic Affairs and interim Provost prior to his selection by IU’s Board of Trustees.

His proudest accomplishments include the construction and renovation of university facilities and the establishment of new schools and academic programs. His critics say he lacked a cam-

pus presence and ignored the needs of students.

Upon his selection, members of IU’s faculty such as Bart Ng, then-president of the IUPUI Faculty Council, and Rosalie Vermette, then-vice president of the IUPUI Faculty Council, expressed optimism after McRobbie said he looked forward to working with IUPUI in his first news conference as IU’s Presidentelect.

At the time, IUPUI and IU-Bloomington had a tense relationship. IU-Bloomington had been named the university’s flagship campus in 2005, and Vermette believed this deflated any notion that the university’s campuses were equal.

Ng and Vermette believed McRobbie had an understanding of IUPUI’s situation, but Ng stressed that he would be judged by his actions rather than his promises.

Others, such as Betsy Henke, then-president of the IU Student Association, expressed disappointment in McRobbie’s selection, citing a lack of response to her requests for a meeting.

“It’s not just a view, it’s the truth. He is not involved enough,” Henke told the Indiana Daily Student in 2007.

McRobbie toured IU’s regional campuses and medical centers in the months after being named presidentelect. He was surprised at the amount of statewide support

IU receives, he told the IDS in 2007.

“I was just really struck by the enormous influence and importance this institution has in the state,” McRobbie said.

While McRobbie’s presidency began July 1, 2007, he was not officially inaugurated until October. Joined by friends, family, faculty, past presidents and more, McRobbie laid out his vision for the university.

In his inaugural address, McRobbie spoke of goals such as upgrading residence halls at IU-Bloomington, increasing cooperation between IU’s campuses, bringing greater educational opportunity to Indiana and increasing grad-

uation rates.

“I accept these challenges with enthusiasm, though I harbor no illusions that they will be easy. I ask every faculty member, staff member, and student, every alumnus and friend of IU, indeed every citizen of Indiana to join me in this pursuit of excellence,” McRobbie said. *** McRobbie served as IU’s president for 14 years, announcing his intention to retire after the conclusion of the 2020-21 school year in August 2020.

His presidency saw the global financial crisis of 200708, the establishment of new schools and academic programs, construction and

renovation of university facilities, rising tuition, mold outbreaks in residential halls, the renaming of campus sites, graduate workers calling for an end to IU’s mandatory fees, IU’s bicentennial and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Multiple individuals, such as Gov. Eric Holcomb, Sen. Todd Young R-Ind, IU Distinguished Professor Ellen Ketterson and Mary Sue Coleman, former Association of American Universities president, released statements praising McRobbie upon the announcement of his retirement.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 9 of Indiana has benefited in incalculable ways. From Indiana University’s ever-increasing engagement in transformational economic development projects to improving our international standing abroad, Michael’s leadership has enhanced the Hoosier state’s reputation globally,” Holcomb said.

Others, such as Cole Nelson, a Graduate Workers Coalition activist, were critical of McRobbie’s presidency.

“President McRobbie has made no recognizable effort to promise and secure a living wage for graduate workers or, for that matter, even consider us a priority worth acknowledging,” said in an IDS opinion article.

Michael J. Mirro and Patrick Shoulders of IU’s Board of Trustees defended McRobbie’s legacy in a letter soon after publication of the opinion article.

“IU has been incredibly fortunate to have a gifted pres-

ident for the past 13 years who has made student success a top IU priority,” Mirro and Shoulders wrote. *** Ten new schools were established during McRobbie’s presidency, including The Media School, the Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture + Design, The Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies and two Schools of Education, one in Bloomington and one at IUPUI. Other projects included renovations at the Indiana Memorial Union, a new residence hall, renovations to Franklin Hall and construction yet to be completed around campus.

On June 30, McRobbie presided over his final public event as IU’s president, where he was joined by Fred H. Cate, IU’s Vice President for Research.

“It is so important to remember that while you can have a beautiful orchestra,

you need somebody to blow the certain trumpet, to know the direction you’re heading, and we are all here today to express our gratitude to a man who for 14 years has blown that trumpet,” Cate said.

Toward the end of his presidency, a box full of symbolic keys from past dedication ceremonies sat in McRobbie’s office.

“I have an absolutely enormous box of these in my office, which is extremely heavy and very hard to lift, actually,” McRobbie said while holding up the final key at his final ceremony.

IU saw more than 100 new or renovated facilities during McRobbie’s tenure, and the construction is valued at about $2.5 billion, according to the university.

Of his efforts at IU, he said he is most proud of the establishment of these new schools, academic programs and the construction or renovation of facilities at IU’s campuses.

“All of those represent

new opportunities for students who come to IU,” McRobbie said in a May. 25 interview. “Now, the second thing was providing all those new programs with new or renovated space so they have the facilities to be successful.” *** On March 10, 2020, McRobbie released a statement regarding COVID-19.

All in-person classes in the two weeks following spring break were to take place online, with in-person instruction set to resume April 6, 2020. The statement also encouraged students to travel to permanent, off-campus homes if possible.

“It is now necessary to take further urgent, proactive steps to help keep the IU community safe,” the statement read. “These measures will undoubtedly cause inconvenience and disruption, yet the risks of not acting now far outweigh the foreseeable inconvenience

and challenges of these actions.”

The pandemic worsened, and McRobbie sent out a second statement March 15, 2020.

Spring break was extended by a week, IU’s campus would close, the Little 500 races were canceled and all classes would move online for the remainder of the spring 2020 semester.

The 2020-21 academic year was described by McRobbie as “like no other at Indiana University” in a December 2020 statement.

Masks were required on campus, mitigation testing was required for students, traditional breaks were replaced with “wellness days” and fans weren’t allowed to attend IU Athletics events.

Classes took place through in-person, online and hybrid formats.

When COVID-19 vaccinations were given emergency use authorizations, IU announced a plan to open a vaccination site on campus. IU’s vaccination

site, located in Assembly Hall, would become Monroe County’s primary site in April. McRobbie announced that he had received the first dose of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine in a Jan.17 statement.

“We at IU will continue to do all we can to help ensure the vaccine gets into the arms of members of the IU community, as well as all Hoosiers,” McRobbie said in a press release.

At the end of McRobbie’s presidency, IU is set to return to mostly-normal operations for the fall 2021 semester, which will also serve as the first semester for new IU President Pamela Whitten.

“Our response to the pandemic is a very robust one,” McRobbie said. “I expect she’ll be able to take that over seamlessly and see that through to hopefully a completely normal school semester.”

Supreme Court Justice rejects request to block vaccine mandate

By Phyllis Cha cha1@iu.edu | @phyllischa

This story was originally published Aug 12, 2021.

The Supreme Court refused to block Indiana University’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate Monday, which requires students receive a COVID-19 vaccine.

Justice Amy Coney Barrett turned down students’ request for emergency relief without comment, according to the New York Times.

Barrett oversees the federal appeals court involved in the case and acted alone without referring to the full court.

This was the first legal test of a COVID vaccine mandate to come before the Supreme Court, according to NBC News.

In June, eight students

filed a federal lawsuit against IU over its vaccine mandate.

The lawsuit argued that students were being coerced into receiving the vaccine under threat of expulsion, violating their Fourteenth Amendment right to bodily autonomy and the right to reject medical treatment.

This followed a decision from the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals that upheld IU’s vaccine requirement.

The COVID-19 vaccine is required for students, staff and faculty, who must be vaccinated by Aug. 23, IU announced in May. There are religious, medical and ethical exemptions.

All students, staff, faculty and visitors must continue to wear masks on campus, and unvaccinated individuals will be subject to mitigation testing twice a week.

IU President Pamela Board of Trustee member Melanie Walker dies Whitten tests positive for COVID-19 Melanie Walker, IU presidential search committee chair, speaks in Neal Marshall Grand Hall.

By Phyllis Cha

cha1@iu.edu | @phyllischa

This story was originally published Aug 2, 2021.

Indiana University trustee Melanie Walker, 62, has died, according to a press release from the university Sunday.

Walker served on the Board of Trustees after her appointment by then-Gov. Mike Pence in 2016.

“So many are fighting back tears today with the sad news of Melanie Walker’s passing,” Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb said. “Melanie will forever be so many things

to many people around the world. Her combination of a zest for life, love for family, friends and Indiana University, and her globally inclusive work ethic are characteristics I hope every young Hoosier can grow up to embody. I will miss learning from her, especially how to attach action to empathy and always with a servant’s heart. Janet and I are praying comfort and strength will surround the Walker family as this bright light of life finds a forever home in heaven.”

While serving as a trustee, Walker was involved in

the Dean’s Council for the O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs, the Manufacturing and Public Policy Steering Committee and the Steering Committee of the IU Women’s Philanthropy Council.

“All of us in the Indiana University community are heartbroken by the passing of trustee Melanie Walker.

We extend our greatest sympathies to her family and many friends during this difficult time,” IU President Pamela Whitten said. “Her dedication and service to this university, the community and the state went far

Community members gather in support of Vauhxx Booker IZZY MYSZAK

Vauhxx Booker stands with his attorneys Monday in front of the Monroe County Courthouse. Booker could face prison time and fines due to the July 4, 2020, incident at Lake Monroe.

By Izzy Myszak imyszak@iu.edu | @Izzy Myszak

This story was originally published Aug 2, 2021.

About two dozen people gathered in support of Vauhxx Booker on Monday outside of the Monroe County Courthouse.

Booker, a human rights activist who is Black, alleges he was physically attacked and had racial slurs directed his way by a group of individuals at Lake Monroe on July 4, 2020.

Since the incident,

Booker has been charged with misdemeanor criminal trespass and battery resulting in moderate bodily injury, a felony, in Monroe Circuit Court.

Booker can face up to 3.5 years in prison and $15,000 in fines, Guy Loftman, Chair of the Legal Redress Committee of the Monroe County branch of the The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said in a press conference Monday.

The charges were made by special prosecutor Sonia Leerkamp, who was appointed to the case when Monroe County Prosecutor Erika Oliphant recused herself from the case.

Oliphant did not charge Booker before recusing herself, but did charge Sean Purdy, one of the men who allegedly attacked Booker, with three felonies: criminal confinement with bodily injury, battery with moderate injury and intimidation.

Oliphant also charged Jerry Cox, Purdy’s friend with two felonies: aiding, inducing or causing criminal confinement and battery as well as three misdemeanors: two counts of battery and intimidation.

Booker said that Leerkamp pressured him over the past year by saying she would charge him if he did not agree to dismiss the charges on Purdy.

“It’s been the history of America that when a Black person is accused of

some crime that we look for criminality within them.

It doesn’t matter if you are dead. We could talk about Floyd, we could talk about Breonna Taylor, who was asleep in her bed, and people still looked for a way she was responsible,” Booker said.

Katharine Liell, a lawyer on Booker’s legal team, said they anticipate filing the necessary motions challenging jurisdiction prior to the day of the hearing.

Leill said that in the 30 years she has practiced in Indiana she has never seen a special prosecutor open a new case and file it against someone a year later.

“I am not going to let these folks go on about their lives like they didn’t victimize me, like their crime didn’t impact an entire community,” Booker said. “I am going to stand up for myself.”

Booker’s initial trial hearing is set for Sept. 13 at 1:30 p.m.

Jordan Avenue to be renamed

Protesters stand at a vigil for Malik Ali Malik on Saturday in Bloomington. Malik died April 17th after a police chase with Monroe County Sheriff ’s Office deputies.

‘There’s no saying goodbye’ Friends and family mourn Malik Ali Malik’s death

By Laura Gerber laurgerb@iu.edu | @lauragerberr

This story was originally published June 26, 2021.

More than 20 people showed up to a vigil hosted by Bloomington Young Democratic Socialists of America on Saturday in Peoples Park for a Bloomington man who died after a police chase.

Malik Ali Malik, 39, died on April 17th, after a highspeed pursuit by Monroe County Sheriff ’s Office deputies.

Malik’s car collided with a tree and then caught on fire, according to The Herald-Times.

At the beginning of the vigil, people held signs that said “Release the body camera footage” and “Rest in power, Malik.” Friends and family of Malik then shared their favorite memories of him and emphasized the importance of getting body camera footage from the incident.

“There’s no viewing the body. There’s no saying goodbye to him,” Barbara Dorman, mother of Malik’s children, said in a speech.

“The body was burned beyond recognition.”

Dorman said she wants the body camera footage released to know if officers tried to help Mailk get out of the burning car.

“There’s no viewing the body. There’s no saying goodbye to him.”

Barbara Dorman, mother of Malik’s children

Dorman believes people need to know if the Monroe County Sheriff ’s department is protecting everyone and treating people’s lives equally, she said.

Bradi Heaberlin, a YDSA member and organizer for the vigil, said police officers should have de-escalated the situation instead of initiating a high-speed chase.

Heaberlin said that Malik’s death was avoidable and that police need to be held accountable.

“There needs to be less policing of black communities and black men in particular,” Heaberlin said.

The vigil marched down Kirkwood Avenue chanting that the body camera footage needs to be released and

I CARE

that Black lives matter.

The vigil stopped briefly near the Monroe County Courthouse and then marched back on Seventh Street towards Peoples Park.

Beyonce Smiley is not Malik’s biological daughter, but she said Malik had been her father figure since she was three years old.

Smiley said that Malik sent her voice messages every day and was always checking on her.

“He treated me like his daughter,” Smiley said.

“Whenever I had a problem, I would reach out to him because he was my protector.”

Smiley said it’s important to get the bodycam footage because she wants to know why Malik didn’t get help when he was in the burning car. She said police should protect people more than they hurt them.

There are many questions that need to be answered and getting the bodycam footage would give answers, Smiley said.

Smiley said she urges everyone to email the Monroe County Sheriff ’s Department and demand that the bodycam footage from Malik’s death is released.

The joint task force between the City of Bloomington and IU, convened by Mayor John Hamilton to recommend new names for Jordan Avenue, has completed its report.

The unanimous recommendations for the road’s two sections are “Eagleson Avenue” for the city owned section of Jordan from Davis Street to 17th Street and “Fuller Lane” or “Mattie Fuller Lane” for the university owned section from 17th Street to Fee Lane, according to the release.

The first name recommendation honors the Eagleson family, the release said, a Bloomington family of four generations whose members have made significant contributions to the city, university, state and county, starting with Halson Vashon Eagleson who was born into slavery and came to Bloomington in the 1880s.

The second recommendation honors Mattie Jacobs Fuller who, after being born into slavery in Kentucky, became a lifelong resident of Bloomington at age four.

She was a successful business woman and suffragist who made the donation that

founded Bethel AME Church, according to the release.

The Renaming Task Force reviewed more than 500 names submitted to the city’s website by members of the public.

The task force based its selection on the criteria that the streets be named in honor of people who were longtime Monroe County residents, made significant contributions to the community and had not already received significant city and university honors and awards.

City and university officials requested the two streets have separate names because they are not contiguous.

The task force also recommended that historical markers be installed providing biographical information about the street’s namesakes.

Formal renaming of the streets is the responsibility of the Bloomington Plan Commission, which will hear the proposed names and take public comment at a public hearing, and of the IU Nam-

ing Committee and IU Board of Trustees.

A notice of the proposed names will be sent at least 30 days before the hearing to all affected property owners and residents.

The Plan Commission will adopt a resolution establishing new names which will go into effect no sooner than 90 days after the vote, according to the release.

The IU Board of Trustees voted to rename Jordan Hall, the Jordan River, the Jordan parking garage and a section of North Jordan Avenue in October 2020.

They are now named Biology Building, Campus River and East Parking Garage, respectively.

Seventh president of IU, David Starr Jordan, was at the forefront of the American eugenics movement and advocated for forced sterilization legislation. American eugenics has been acknowledged as an influence on the racial theories that led to the Holocaust, according to the release.

IU requires COVID vaccine for fall

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @ByLCNorton

This story was originally published Aug 2, 2021.

The COVID-19 vaccine will be required for students, staff and faculty beginning this fall and all should be fully vaccinated before returning to campus in the fall, IU announced Friday.

The requirement will allow the university to lift most restrictions such as wearing masks and physical distancing in the fall, according to IU’s website.

Students who choose not

to get vaccinated will have their class registration canceled and will lose access to Canvas, CrimsonCard services, IU email and on campus activities, according to IU’s website.

Faculty and staff who choose not to get vaccinated will no longer be employed by the university, according to IU’s website.

IU will share full details about an exemption process

by June 15, but approved exemptions will be limited, according to IU’s website.

Students, staff and faculty should plan to have their

first dose of the vaccine by July 1, and must be fully vaccinated no later than August 15 or when returning to campus after August 1, according to IU’s website.

A person is considered to be fully vaccinated 2 weeks after their second dose of a two-dose vaccine or 2 weeks after a dose of a singledose vaccine, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website.

Students, faculty and staff can report their vaccination status to the university using a form on IU’s website.

IU loses College Cup Championship to Marshall 1-0 Doug Wattley dwattley@iu.edu | @DougWattley

This story was originally published May 18, 2021.

Tears filled the eyes of IU players as they stood still with hands

over their heads. Head coach Todd Yeagley and the coaching staff hustled to put their arms around their athletes, knowing the season’s ultimate goal was gone.

As they shuffled off the field,

they walked past the smiling faces of Marshall University fans and players as they jumped up and down in a frenzy.

A rebound goal from Marshall senior forward Jamil Roberts in the 98th minute gave the Thun-

CREAM, CRIMSON OR CANDY STRIPES?

dering Herd their first national title and doomed the Hoosiers out of their ninth. IU sophomore goalkeeper Roman Celentano stopped the first attempt from junior forward Vitor Dias, but couldn’t recover before Roberts put the ball, and the Hoosiers chances, away.

“It was a weird bang-bang goal,” senior midfielder A.J. Palazzolo said after the game.

Despite holding Marshall scoreless for all of regulation, No. 3 seed IU lost 1-0 to the Thundering Herd on Monday night in Cary, North Carolina.

The Hoosiers end the 2020 season with a 12-2-2 record.

The score was 0-0 at halftime, but the up-tempo pace opened up chances for both sides early on. Sophomore forward Herbert Endeley created two shots with his pace that missed just wide left. Later in the half, sophomore defender Daniel Munie missed two headers off set pieces – one that ricocheted off the post and one wide-open that he flicked too far left.

“I felt we had an advantage on our attacking restarts,” Yeagley said.

Although IU generated opportunities in the first half, they registered no shots on goal compared to Marshall’s four.

The Thundering Herd dominated possession and tested Celentano throughout the match. He tallied seven saves, with his most impressive one coming in the 23rd minute when he dove right and just barely stuffed a strike from junior midfielder Vinicius Fernandes.

The Hoosiers’ chances came more at a premium in the second half.

In the 49th minute, MAC Hermann finalist and IU sophomore forward Victor Bezerra received a free kick from just outside the box. His direct shot carried lots of velocity, but junior goalkeeper Oliver Semmle dove right and corralled it without a rebound.

“We battled and dug in to-

night and it just didn’t go our way,” Palazzolo said.

Similar to the first half, Marshall continued to control the ball without much IU pressure.

It may have looked like the Hoosiers were playing on their heels, but Celentano and the defense consistently eliminated any threats.

That carried into overtime as the Thundering Herd recorded no shots before the rebounded shot that led to the eventual game-winner.

“Our gameplan, I think we played it well but just couldn’t execute our chances,” Palazzolo said.

Like all collegiate teams across the country, IU dealt with abnormality all season. The COVID-19 pandemic shifted the season from fall to spring. Furthermore, a broken tibia back in March sidelined senior captain and defender Spencer Glass for the remainder of the season.

The Hoosiers’ last blemish before tonight was a 1-0 defeat on Feb. 27th when Northwestern scored with under 3 minutes remaining.

Since then, IU had maintained a 12 game unbeaten streak, a Big Ten regular season title, a Big Ten Championship crown and appeared in the program’s 21st College Cup. “You learn how to win at this program,” Yeagley said. “You learn how to have discipline; learn how to be selfless and have an awesome time doing it.”

The 2021 season will begin in the fall, so IU will have a quick turnaround from this loss. Many of this team’s players are likely to return besides seniors Palazzolo, Glass and Thomas Warr, so another postseason run with hopes of getting the ninth star is expected.

“I’m confident we’ll be back in this position in the near future,” Yeagley said.

Lilly King talks to the media after winning the 200-yard breaststroke on the final night of the 2019 NCAA Tournament. King is among the IU athletes competing in the Olympics from July-August in Tokyo, Japan.

Twelve IU athletes qualify for Olympics in swimming, diving events

By Ara Cowper acowper@iu.edu | @aracowper5

This story was originally published June 23, 2021.

The IU men’s and women’s swimming and diving programs will send 12 current and former collegiate athletes to the 2020 Olympics. This is the second consecutive Olympics with at least eleven Hoosiers qualifying for swimming and diving events.

Two-time gold medalist Lilly King will swim in both the 100-meter and 200-meter breaststroke events.

King received a gold medal

in the 100-meter breaststroke while placing 12th in the 200-meter at the Olympic Games Rio 2016. She received her second gold medal in the women’s 4 x 100-meter medley relay in 2016, where she swam the breastroke leg of the relay.

Annie Lazor will also swim the 200-meter breaststroke, qualifying with a second-place finish at the Olympic trials behind King.

Lazor graduated from Auburn in 2016, but became King’s training partner in April of 2018.

Zach Apple, a 2019 graduate, qualified for the

100-meter freestyle event.

Apple will also swim in the 400-meter freestyle relay with 2018 graduate Blake Pieroni. Pieroni has a gold medal in the 400-meter freestyle relay from the 2016 games.

Redshirt senior Andrew Capobianco will compete with partner and 2018 graduate Mike Hixon in the men’s 3-meter springboard synchronized diving event.

This is Capobianco’s first time as an Olympian, while Hixon has a silver medal in the event from 2016. The pair won the competition at the Olympic trials on Friday

night by 120.57 points.

Capobianco will also individually compete in the 3-meter springboard event.

Redshirt junior Michael Brinegar qualified in two events, the 800-meter freestyle and the 1,500-meter freestyle. Marwan Elkamash, who is a 2017 graduate and native of Egypt, joins him in the 800-meter freestyle while representing Egypt.

Tomer Frankel, a sophomore, will represent Israel at the games in the 100-meter butterfly event. His time of 51.81 at the Israel Olympic Trials was a lifetime best

and broke the Israeli national record while making it under the Olympic A standard.

Vini Lanza will swim the 200-meter individual medley while representing Brazil. Lanza graduated from IU in 2019.

Jessica Parratto qualified for the synchronized 10-meter platform event with partner Delaney Schnell. Parratto placed seventh in the event at the 2016 Olympics with Amy Cozad and tenth in the individual 10-meter platform dive. She graduated from IU in 2019.

Bailey Andison, a 2018

graduate, will swim in the 200-meter individual medley. Andison is a first-time Olympian and will represent Team Canada.

IU head coach Ray Looze and head diving coach Drew Johansen will also join Team USA. Looze was selected as the assistant coach on Sunday, while it was announced on Monday that Johansen would be the head diving coach. Both Looze and Johansen were on the U.S. Olympic coaching staff at the 2016 Olympics.

The 2020 Olympic Games begin July 23 in Tokyo, Japan.

The kid that came home: Fred Glass on his life, career and legacy IDS FILE PHOTO BY MATT BEGALA

Then-IU Athletic Director Fred Glass looks up at the new south end zone scoreboard July 25, 2018, at Memorial Stadium. Glass was hired by IU in 2008.

By Justin Berger @Justin_Berger

This story was originally published June 3, 2021.

Start with the plastic football, the one that’s faded and gathering dust. It’s from IU’s first and only appearance in the Rose Bowl 53 years ago. Fred Glass picked it up when he was nine years old, on his firstever trip to Bloomington with his pal Jimmy Muhler. Today it sits in his office on the 35th floor of the Regions Tower in downtown Indianapolis.

“I’ve moved a million times, gone here and gone there, but I always save that,” Glass says.

His mother, Rosemary, an IU alum, used to walk around the house wearing Nick’s English Hut sweatshirts. When they weren’t watching games on television, they were listening on the radio.

When he was a junior in high school, Glass returned to Bloomington with Brian Brase. He was hooked. He was home.

“It was the greatest weekend of my life,” Glass remembers.

Two years later, in the fall of 1977, he moved into McNutt’s North Courtyard, Bordner room N308. *** A miniature sculpture of Branch McCracken and Bill Garrett looms large on Glass’ windowsill, a reminder of a program that used to set the standard in college basketball but no longer does.

“Nobody wanted to get Indiana back to elite basketball status more than me. That is literally a fact,” he says. “Because number one I’m a fan, like every goof with a Twitter account.”

“Plus it was my job.”

Glass was a senior in 1981 when IU defeated North Carolina to win the NCAA championship. He remembers the party that stretched from Showalter Fountain down to Kirkwood Avenue and the feeling that came with it. “Bedlam,” he calls it.

And that was always the goal.

Eleven years as athletic director,

and the team never advanced past the Sweet 16. Glass fired Tom Crean in 2017 after nine seasons, tapping Archie Miller to lead the program in a new direction.

The Miller era never really took off.

He was fired in March, almost a year after Glass stepped down as athletic director.

It was a rare black mark on Glass’ legacy. Even now, it eats at him.

“I think Archie had a great plan,” Glass says, looking back. “But I think when it’s all said and done, it’s a results oriented business. It was a sad day for me.” *** Across the office sits five, motionless bobble heads. IU women’s basketball legends Tyra Buss and Amanda Cahill surround Tony Dungy, Bobby Leonard and Barack Obama – a reminder to Glass of all the good things that happened inside Assembly Hall.

He hired Teri Moren, the women’s basketball coach who’s taken the program deeper than it’s ever gone in the NCAA tournament, into the Elite Eight this past spring.

It was a massive success for a program that has long lived in the shadow of its male counterpart.

Glass laid the groundwork for the Cuban Center, a revolutionary, student-focused video broadcasting and technology center built within Assembly Hall.

Both Glass and Mark Cuban are proud alumni of the class of 1981, and Cuban was a philanthropic target of Glass. In 2013, Glass flew to Dallas with Hoosier football legend and associate athletic director Anthony Thompson to pitch Cuban on renovating Assembly Hall.

The problem was: Cuban doesn’t do buildings.

“I would support something that would create the kind of students I want to hire someday,” Glass remembers Cuban telling him.

They decided on an alternative, a blend of sports and technology. Glass knew Cuban hated the backstory of a pitch, his biggest pet peeve on Shark Tank, so he had four points prepared on a 3x5 no-

tecard. Hoping for $5 million, Glass got two points in before Cuban held up his hand.

“I’ll give you five million dollars.”

Done.

Down the line, Cuban and Glass met at the bar of the Conrad Hotel in Indianapolis after a 2015 Mavericks-Pacers game. There, a compromise was struck: Glass convinced Cuban to put his name on the technology center, a buildout in Assembly Hall, not a stand-alone building.

Cuban was in the stands at Assembly Hall five years later for another signature afternoon of the Glass era: the day The General came back.

Glass always knew it would be the former players who convinced Bob Knight to return. So he mended the relationship as best he could, then he got out of the way.

IU was celebrating the 40th anniversary of the 1980 men’s basketball team. It felt like the right time.

Randy Wittman, a former Knight player, decided to try and bring his old coach home.

“All the other blueblood programs have managed to stay tied to their patriarch, except us,” Glass says.

During halftime of a regular season matchup with Purdue, scores of former players were introduced to a capacity crowd. The big screen showed an empty hallway well within the bowels of the college basketball cathedral. Being held up by Quinn Buckner, Scott May, Steve Green and his son, Pat, Knight turned the corner and emerged.

The building erupted.

“I was just so happy, there were players that had not been back in that building since they walked out on senior day,” Glass says. “I still have chills about it. When he came in and the fans were going crazy and grown men were crying and the players were crying — it just hit how important it was.”

“It’s very rare, in anything, for everything to change in one second,” he continues. “(But) when he came back, everything changed.

Reconciliation. Forgiveness. The family (was) back together.”

On the file cabinet, a yardstick reads, “THE GRADUATE AT GRADUATION: OPEN TO GROWTH - INTELLECTUALLY COMPETENT - RELIGIOUS - LOVING - COMMITTED TO PROMOTING JUSTICE.” Rick Greenspan resigned as IU’s athletic director in December of 2008.

The school was less than a decade removed from the Knight firing. Terry Hoeppner, the head football coach who many believed would restore the lost program, died of glioblastoma in the summer of 2007. And Kelvin Sampson was forced to resign in early 2008 after several NCAA violations.

IU was looking for its fifth athletic director in the last eight years. The place was a mess.

When IU President Michael McRobbie decided to hire Glass, who at that point had zero experience working in athletic departments, Glass knew he would have to do more than hire new coaches.

“I really felt like to lead it, I had to heal it and to do that we had to rally around something bigger than our individual jobs,” Glass says.

Using themes he borrowed from The Graduate at Graduation, it started with the Four Priorities – which became the Five Priorities. Then, Spirit of Indiana: 24 Sports, One Team. Finally, the Excellence Academy and the Indiana University Student-Athlete Bill of Rights.

“Nobody else dedicates the kind of real estate and resources that we do to develop our kids personally and I think that’s the special sauce,” Glass says. “I think that’s the thing that distinguishes us from other schools.”

Glass takes pride in his Jesuit upbringing. In prep school he learned the importance of cura personalis, a phrase that still sticks in his head all these years later. Translation: care for the whole person.

In his athletic department, it was never just about the athlete. *** Above the file cabinet are various awards and newspaper clip-

pings from Glass’ long career. Chief among them, a distinguished alumni award from IU Robert H. McKinney School of Law in Indianapolis.

After graduating from IU with a political science degree in 1981, Glass started law school.

Needing a place to live, he was put in contact with Mick Terrell, another IU grad looking for a roommate. After a phone call, the two broke law students decided they would live together at the Riverpointe Apartments off White River Parkway.

“I’m not going to lie to you and tell you it was some kind of palace,” Glass says. “(It) was a former condemned HUD building that somebody came in and decided to make it into somewhat presentable living quarters,” Terrell remembers.

But it was a perfect match. They pulled pranks inspired by The Hand, a horror movie about a murderous, detached hand. They chose to form a two-man study group instead of working with others because they trusted each other. Fred set Mick up with his childhood friend, Julie. Mick and Julie have been married for 36 years.

Fred would sometimes let Mick borrow his car, too.

They called it the cue ball, Fred’s white, 1963 Ford Fairlane, because their friend, Marcus Freihofer, had a black, 1962 Ford Fairlane that they called the eight ball.

“It was super old and it was really crummy,” Terrell said.

One snowy day, Mick took the cue ball to the law school library.

Covered in snow by the time he left the library, Mick ran into a light post, a big concrete one, putting a big V in the back of the car.

Mick got home and told Fred he’d better take a look.

“Man, I’ll pay for it, whatever you need,” Mick told him. “I’m really sorry.”

“Give me a 12-pack of Stroh’s and we’ll just call it even,” Fred told him. And that was that. Almost 40 years later, Fred and Mick now work together at Taft.

IU men’s golf looks to future after finishing 9th at Tallahassee NCAA Regional

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @ByLCNorton

This story was originally published May 19, 2021.

On Feb. 17, just after the Hoosiers had finished in second place at the Mobile Bay Intercollegiate, IU men’s golf head coach Mike Mayer knew his team had talent.

But Mayer says that winning in golf takes more than talent. It takes confidence.

They had won the Big Ten Match Play Championship just 10 days prior and felt they had something to build on.

The team had confidence, but it stalled out.

The remainder of the regular season was solid, Mayer said. Solid golf and beating good teams, but nothing more.

“I don’t think we ever got over that hump,” Mayer said.

“I think we have the potential to really, really do something.”

The Hoosiers ended their season with a 9th place finish at the Tallahassee NCAA Regional at the Seminole Legacy Golf Club in Tallahassee,

Florida, on Wednesday. They needed a top five finish to advance to the NCAA Championship.

IU opened the tournament Monday without any members of its lineup shooting over par on the front nine, then nobody from the lineup shot under par on the back nine. The Hoosiers finished the first round with a total score of 290.

“Kind of a tale of two different nines,” Mayer said.

The trend continued the next day as the Hoosiers carded a 290 again with bogeys across the lineup on the back nine.

The team began on the back nine for the third and final round, finding just two birdies while bogeying 15 times between holes 10 and 18. The team swapped ninth and 10th place with Louisiana State University and Davidson College throughout the day before taking control on the front nine with 12 birdies to cement their spot at ninth.

“We knew going in we’ve got to put together three real-

ly, really solid rounds to make it out,” Mayer said. “We feel like we played well, but not well enough.”

This was the program’s first postseason appearance under Mayer since 2013. IU’s lineup at the time was made up of three seniors, a junior and a sophomore.

This year’s lineup, which he believes is more talented than that of 2013, will return all but one member next year.

Graduate student Brock Ochsenreiter is the only player leaving.

IU’s lineup included two freshmen in Clay Merchent and Drew Salyers, both of whom Mayer felt strongly about during the recruitment process.

“I thought those two in particular had a really, really high chance to elevate our program,” Mayer said.

Merchent won Big Ten Freshman of the Year alongside being named First Team All-Big Ten on May 5. Mayer believes that Salyers could become one of the best collegiate men’s golf players in the

country.

“I don’t think we’ve seen anywhere near the best of Drew Salyers,” Mayer said. “I think that young man has the potential to shoot extremely low numbers.”

IU will also return junior Mitch Davis and senior Ethan Shepherd, who is opting to return for a fifth year. It was Davis’ final putt that won the Big Ten Match Play Championship, and Shepherd was named Second Team All-Big Ten after a ninth place finish at the Big Ten Championship on May 2.

Mayer also looks forward to the additions of Illinois transfer senior Noah Gillard and incoming freshman Ethan Chelf.

The current roster will participate in amateur golf tournaments over the summer to prepare for the fall.

Meanwhile, Mayer and the coaching staff will target the best player they can find in the class of 2022.

“I feel great about the future of Indiana golf,” Mayer said.

IU softball seniors thankful for one final season

By Griffin Healy

healygr@iu.edu | @TheGriffinHealy

This story was originally published June 29, 2021.

With two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning on May 16 in College Park, Maryland, Terrapins senior third baseman Sammie Stefan hit a ground ball to IU softball’s senior third baseman Grayson Radcliffe.

As soon as the ball hit senior first baseman Annika Baez’s glove, and IU won the final game of the 2021 season 3-2, the senior class finished their careers wearing the Indiana script.

It took a long time to get there.

On March 12, 2020, IU softball was in Madeira

Beach, Florida, playing against the University of Toledo. During the sixth inning, the Big Ten announced that all spring sports would be canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Everything was up in the air.

“If the seniors were granted an extra year of eligibility and had the opportunity to get back, what would you do,” head coach Shonda Stanton asked the seniors in a meeting with the team after the sudden news broke.

Players across the nation were suddenly unsure if their athletic careers had just ended. Some of the league’s players took to

Twitter to ask the NCAA for another year of eligibility, including IU’s senior left fielder Gabbi Jenkins.

“All of us were in very different spots,” senior catcher Bella Norton said. “I was the only one that was going to leave Bloomington. I had a job lined up, so I had a lot to think about before making a decision.”

On March 30, 2020, the extra year was officially granted by the NCAA. Jenkins, Norton, pitcher Emily Goodin and second baseman Katie Lacefield were given an option to come back for a fifth year.

With Baez, Radcliffe and center fielder Taylor Lambert, the new senior class was up to seven.

“I know personally for me, it’s been a constant mindset of not taking anything for granted,” Goodin said.

But it wasn’t easy to get everyone back for another year.

Goodin said she’d be back, joining Lacefield and Jenkins. Norton had to decide whether to take the job or return to IU — if they were asked back at all.

Other Big Ten players were not offered a fifth year from their schools.

“We were very fortunate for the coaches who allowed us to take our fifth year, but also the staff that welcomed us,” Jenkins said.

In that fifth year, Jenkins was able to break the pro-

gram’s career stolen bases record with 96. Goodin finished her career with 583 strikeouts, ranking her fourth overall in program history.

As the two senior classes merged, they welcomed one more member to the team — Micah Schroeder, a graduate transfer utility player from Dartmouth College.

As she was getting recruited by other Big Ten schools, Schroeder started looking at the academic side of what each school offered.

Once she found the Kelley School of Business and saw the program, she knew it was the perfect fit for her.

“All I can say in terms of my year here is gratitude, not only for the team but

for everyone who welcomed me with open arms for when I didn’t know if I was going to get another year.”

Schroeder said.

The canceled season had its benefits — the seniors got even closer with each other.

They were constantly on zoom calls, be it having TED Talk Tuesdays, where each member presented on something they were passionate about outside of softball, or doing workouts on Zoom.

“It definitely did make us closer as a class,” Lacefield said. “To go through something that emotional as a class and to get something ripped away that you love, it brings you together.

IU announces Name, Image and Likeness policy

By Evan Gerike egerike@iu.edu | @evangerike

This story was originally published June 30, 2021.

IU released its Name, Image and Likeness policy in a press release Wednesday to guide athletes in NIL opportunities following an interim policy being adopted by the NCAA that allows athletes to make money based on their NIL. The policy will go into effect on July 1.

“Dating back to the creation of the IU Athletics NIL Task Force last August, our department has been laserfocused on being at the forefront when it comes to preparing for and supporting our students’ NIL opportunities when this day arrived,” IU athletic director Scott Dolson said in the re-

lease. “Now that it is here, this comprehensive policy is our latest step and provides a roadmap for our students to maximize their opportunities while also protecting their eligibility to compete in intercollegiate athletics.”

The policy states that IU athletes can use their NIL to promote their own business, to promote other business, conduct camps, make appearances or sign autographs and receive compensation.

Athletes can also obtain an agent to help with NIL deals.

Athletes will not be allowed to use the IU logo to endorse a product or company but will be allowed to autograph and sell merchandise with the IU logo on them.

NCAA rules prohibit play-

ers to receive compensation for playing collegiate sports or for receiving money for recruitment.

According to the release, IU’s policy will also restrict athletes from endorsing gambling, alcohol, tobacco, adult entertainment, banned substances or illegal products and services.

All NIL activities must be reported to IU within 10 days of the event.

IU athletes can be contacted by their social media accounts or through Opendorse.

Supporters hold signs at the Save Our Venues Rally on May 22 in front of the Monroe County Courthouse.

Local arts organizations rally to support arts

By Julianna Wigsmoen juwigsmo@iu.edu

This story was originally published May 23, 2021.

People holding picket signs lined the Monroe County Courthouse Square.

"Honk if you support the arts” “City Support for Venues Now” "Minimum Funding ≠ Adequate Funding" These were just a few of the messages displayed on the signs.

About 70 people attended the Save Our Arts Venues Rally, which was organized

by Arts Forward Bloomington according to their Facebook page, on Saturday.

The rally was originally meant to encourage the city government to dedicate $1.5 million to the John Waldron Arts Center and Buskirk Chumley Theater, according to AFB’s press release May 17.

Three days after AFB announced the rally, Mayor John Hamilton announced the city will invest about $515,000 to make necessary repairs to the Waldron.

Representatives of various local arts organizations took to the stage to thank

the mayor for his support of the arts and to express how important arts venues, especially the Waldron and BCT, are to them.

The Bloomington Academy Film Theatre, WFHB and Voces Novae, were some of the groups in attendance.

Ken Buzzard, an AFB founder, said they organized the rally because AFB’s mission is to support the arts through public policy.

Buzzard said a critical point of the mayor’s announcement Thursday is the city will conduct a study to determine the possibility of building a downtown arts

center.

“The one thing that we ask the city to do when establishing this committee is to hold a seat at the table for us,” Buzzard said.

Bloomington councilwoman Susan Sandberg did not attend the rally but wrote a statement of support for the arts for Sue Swaney, a voice instructor at the IU musical theater program, to read on her behalf.

“We owe you a place to perform,” Swaney said, reading the words of Sandberg.

“We owe you the accommodations to rehearse. We owe you the stages and the gal-

lery spaces and the forums to share your creativity with us.

To the extent that I have any decision making power, I will continue to support you.”

Corey Hollinger, the production manager of Flowmotion Events, a local cirque, represented his organization.

“When the circus comes to town in Bloomington,” Hollinger said, “it comes to the Buskirk-Chumley Theater, it comes to the John Waldron Arts Center to create a space where we can all return with childlike wonder.

It is a stage full of ceaseless nonconformity, where we see, shining in the spotlight,

the eternity of human curiosity.”

Hollinger said he can’t wait to take the next steps for the future of the arts with Bloomington.

The other speakers were Bob Kissel, stage manager at Bloomington Boogies; Kay Olges, member of Windfall Dancers; Gabe Gloden, managing director of Cardinal Stage and Joanne Shank, board member of the Arts Alliance of Greater Bloomington.

In the mayor’s announcement Thursday he said the Waldron will open after renovations Jan 3, 2022.

Poets reflected on the COVID-19 pandemic and the revival of society as restrictions begin to loosen at “New Beginnings,” a poetry slam held by Bloomington arts nonprofit Artisan Alley on Thursday night.

Organized by Artisan Alley intern and Purdue University student David Phan, the event encouraged community engagement. Held in the Dimensions Venue at Artisan Alley, audience members sat in rows of folding chairs in front of the stage and were invited to participate in an open mic session at the end of the line-up.

The poetry slam featured work by poets Phan, Ian Gridley, Rayden Sia, Joshua Johannsen and Artisan Alley Founder and Executive Director Adam Nahas.

Each artist offered a different perspective on COVID-19. Some poems were somber, reflecting the sadness and pain the pandemic brought upon the world.

Others took a more hopeful tone, highlighting the unex-

pected good to come out of being in quarantine, including becoming closer to family as well as being more in tune with self identity.

Nahas presented five personal poems representing different stages of the pandemic and his feelings during those stages. For his first poem, Nahas read a piece titled “Cloister”. The poem included the themes fear of death and being imprisoned. Nahas referred to the poem as being a reflection of quarantine life and the beginning of the pandemic.

In a different tone, Sia, an IUPUI student originally from Malaysia, reflected on his time during quarantine.

He said the time made him realize, despite its issues, the United States provided him a community where he felt comfortable to explore self expression.

Although Artisan Alley is being careful to follow COVID-19 guidelines they intend to hold similar events to this evening’s poetry slam, according to Nahas.

“This event is one of our first efforts to get a group of people together since COVID happened,” Nahas said.

“Jersey Boys” The Tony and Grammy award winning musical comes to the auditorium April 22 and 23. Just four guys from Jersey until they became international sensations.

Yo-Yo Ma and Kathryn Stott Yo-Yo Ma, world-renowned cellist, and Kathryn Stott, world-renowned pianist, come together April 26 to end the auditorium’s season with a night of music.

9 local galleries showcase art in Bloomington Gallery Walk

By Haripriya Jalluri hjalluri@iu.edu

This story was originally published July 9, 2021.

The Bloomington Gallery Walk, featuring nine participating galleries, took place July 9. The gallery walk covered a 1-mile stretch from IU Cook Center through Downtown Bloomington.

This month the event showcased

By Hand Gallery’s “In Celebration of Limestone: Quarries & Carvers”, IU Cook Center’s “Darkness and Nothing More” by IU photography professor Elizabeth Claffey and Gallery B at Bloomingfoods’ “Enchanting Impressions – An Inspiring Visual Journey” by IU adjunct professor Juliana Burrell. Other exhibits included Spectrum Creative Group Gallery’s “Not too Main Street” by Kendall Reeves and Monroe Convention Center Art Gallery’s “Take Care” by Karen Holtzclaw. Pictura Gallery’s “Magic Show” by Carol Golemboski and the Venue Fine Art and Gifts’ “Beautiful Paintings” by Patricia Rhoden Bartels were also on display.

The Gallery Walk also included the Vault at Gallery Mortgage, which supports and showcases local artists, according to the Gallery Walk website.

In addition to art, the gallery walk included a pop-up market at Rainbow Bakery which offered local food, music and art by nine artists, according to their Instagram.

The Gallery Walk is usually hosted on the first Friday of each month, however the July walk was delayed due to the Fourth of July, according to the Gallery Walk website.

Martha Moore, Gallery Walk Chair and Pictura Gallery owner, said that the event is kid friendly and Pictura offers free children’s workshops and a scavenger hunt. The event is also the perfect first date or friend group outing for college students, Moore said.

Horoscope

“We tell college students that gallery walk is a great date night, because you can get food at the galleries or it’s a fun thing to go to as a group,” Moore said. “We think of those First Fridays as fun: to come out and see art, be with your friends, support artists, and have good conversations.”

Participants can visit the galleries every First Friday as the galleries provide new experiences to participants each month, whether that be having live entertainment or having the artists present to discuss their work.

“We really strive hard to make sure that each gallery walk has some unique new features, new exhibits that weren’t up before,” Moore said, “So while not every gallery changes their exhibit every month, I would say galleries try very hard to have a variety of entertainment.”

Pictura concluded the night by partnering with Cicada Cinema to host a free film screening of “F for Fake” by Orson Welles that ties into Golemboski’s “Magic Show '' photography collection, Moore said.

Bloomington Gallery Walk is a collaboration between galleries across downtown and the IU campus. Bloomington galleries support each other instead of compete, Spectrum Creative Group gallery owner Kendall Reeves said.

“We are right next to the By Hand Gallery and we are not competing with each other,” Reeves said. “We make it easy for people to come and see both things, we both offer different varieties of merchandise and art.”

Spectrum Creative Group’s Gallery features Reeves’ photography collection on historic architecture found in south central Indiana, according to the Gallery Walk website.

Bloomington Gallery Walk strives to support local artists in Bloomington and use First Fridays to showcase local artwork.

MOVIE STILLS DATABASE

Loki and Sylvie stand next to one another in the Disney Plus series “Loki”. The series finale began streaming Wednesday.

Marvel’s “Loki” ended in the best way it could have

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @ByLCNorton

This story was originally published July 15, 2021.

Editor’s note: The following article contains spoilers for Loki.

“Loki” aired its thrilling finale on Wednesday and, after the conclusion of fellow Marvel Cinematic Universe shows “WandaVision” and “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier”, you can’t blame fans for expecting the finale to include a big fight scene typical of most MCU releases.

But no, “Loki” got its ending just right.

The ending action sequence was a given in “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier”. The characters of Sam

and Bucky were built primarily in the MCU’s more actionheavy, spy-esque movies and the show itself featured action scenes as a primary component.

The same cannot be said for the finale of “WandaVision”, which had a build-up consisting of multiple plot lines and scheming with minimal fight scenes, only for the series to end with a duel between Wanda and Agatha that just feels out of place.

Furthermore, can anyone reading this even remember the name of the antagonist dude from S.H.I.E.L.D? Thought not.

Loki was similar. Mind you, there was some action sprinkled throughout the show, but that’s really not

who Loki is as a character.

He’s a trickster and schemer who plans things through to get to his desired outcome rather than forcing his way to it, and that’s how he operated in the show’s conclusion.

When Loki and Sylvie first reach the domain of He Who Remains, both are set on killing him to grant free will to the timeline. That is, before He Who Remains, a variant of Marvel villain Kang the Conqueror, reveals what outcome that action would generate.

Kang, brilliantly portrayed by Jonathon Majors, explains to the two that countless, much more sinister variants of himself would be unleashed as the timeline split in the event of his death.

Up to that point in the series and the MCU as a whole, Loki had been shown using his intellect to find solutions and get his way out of situations. His reaction to Kang’s revelation is in character for the Loki that developed over the course of the series, wanting to take a minute to consider the ramifications of the duo’s initial intent to kill Kang.

Sylvie, who throughout the series was relentlessly driven by her quest for revenge against the Time Variance Authority for robbing her of the opportunity to live out her life, ignores the warning, tricking Loki and sending him elsewhere before turning to kill Kang.

With his last breath, Kang

simply smiles and whispers “See you soon.”

All too soon for Loki, who is revealed to have been transported to an alternate version of the TVA where a towering statue of Kang, clad in a costume fans will recognize from the comics, looms over the organization’s headquarters as the series comes to a close with Loki’s fate uncertain.

This conclusion serves as a new beginning for the MCU after the conclusion of its last overarching plot in “Avengers: Endgame”. Without Thanos, the world needs a new threat to unite Earth’s mightiest heroes once again, and the team at Marvel Studios found that in Kang and the ramifications of split

timelines.

Kang’s arrival and the fracturing of the timeline open the doors for future films such as “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” and “SpiderMan: No Way Home”, where appearances from past Spider-Man actors Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield have been rumored and desired by fans, including yours truly (Tobey is the reason why I grew up wearing Spider-Man costumes every other Halloween).

In all, “Loki” ended in the best way the series could have, staying true to its characters while making sure to leave the ending open for the future of the MCU.
