In June, a vendor at the farmers’ market was accused of ties to a white supremacist organization. What followed was dramatic. A protestor was arrested. A city struggled to quell tensions. Here’s how it all started.

After former IU basketball Coach Bob Knight returned to Bloomington for his first-known public appearance on April 6 for a IU vs Penn State baseball game, speculation circled about whether or not Knight missed the city in which he coached at for 29 years. His return made Hoosier fans happy, and now Knight's face could potentially be seen much more in Bloomington. Recently filed property transfer records in the Monroe County Assessor's Office obtained by The Herald-Times show that a just-built house in the 1500 block of South Andrew Circle in the Shadow Creek neighborhood was sold to Robert M. Knight and Karen Knight, his wife, on July 2. The 4,800-square-foot house reportedly has five bedrooms and four bathrooms and sold for $572,500. Knight was fired from IU Sept. 10, 2000, after winning three National Championships with the program, along with 11 Big Ten Championships and 661 wins, making him the winningest coach in program history. He was fired after violating a zero-tolerance policy that was put on him in May of 2000. Fans were upset and protested the streets, but Knight officially bid farewell to the program Sept. 13 in Dunn Meadow in front of an estimated crowd of 6,000 people. He went on to coach at Texas Tech University in 2001 and decided to retire in 2008. Knight declared his intent to never return to IU on The Dan Patrick Show in 2017. “Well, I think I've always really enjoyed the fans, and I always will. On my dying day, I'll think about how great the fans at Indiana were,” SEE KNIGHT, PAGE 16

During the market season, people rise at the crack of dawn, grab their reusable bags and head downtown to stock up on bright red tomatoes, rainbow-colored carrots and crisp green beans. The Bloomington Farmers’ Market has been a touchstone of the community for years. But over the past week it’s become the center of a fierce debate about white supremacy and freedom of speech. On June 4, IU Ph.D. student Abby Ang submitted a letter
with more than 200 co-signers demanding the removal of a vendor named Schooner Creek Farm from the Bloomington Farmers’ Market. The letter claimed owners of the farm, Sarah Dye and Douglas Mackey, are members of Identity Evropa, a white nationalist group. The Southern Poverty Law Center classifies Identity Evropa as a hate group. The group posted fliers in 2017 on the office doors of faculty members of color in IU’s Maurer School of Law and Ballantine Hall. Ang presented messages found in white supremacist chat rooms she and others claimed were post-
ed by Dye under the name Volkmom. She also linked to FBI testimony from Nolan Brewer, who will serve 3 years in federal prison after vandalizing a Carmel, Indiana, synagogue. Brewer identified Volkmom as a woman named Sarah and said he had met her and her husband Douglas through Identity Evropa. That couple was the same couple running Schooner Creek Farm, Ang said. She and the other co-signers demanded the farmers’ market remove them as a vendor or face official complaints to the Indiana State Health Department
Posso, Flores plead not guilty in son’s death By Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @annabelaguiar
Editor's note: This story contains details of child neglect and abuse some readers might find disturbing. In the last days of 12-year-old Eduardo Posso's life, he told his 9-year-old sister he just wanted to juggle and be free. Instead, he grew weaker and more emaciated, restrained with chains and made to wear an electric dog shock collar in the bathtub of room 108 at the Economy Inn his father Luis Posso, 32, and stepmother Dayana Medina Flores, 25, were staying in with him and his three siblings, according to a probable cause affidavit. Last Friday, at 2:52 a.m., Posso carried an unconscious Eduardo into the emergency room of IU Health Bloomington Hospital. Thirteen minutes later, he was pronounced dead. A week after Eduardo's death, Posso and Flores appeared in court to enter preliminary pleas of not guilty at an initial hearing at the Charlotte T. Zietlow Justice Center in downtown Bloomington. The pleas will become formal pleas of not guilty within 20 days unless Posso and Flores enter differently. Both are charged with murder in addition to neglect of a dependent, criminal confinement and battery. They are being held with-

Posso told Judge Marc Kellams the family lived from paycheck to paycheck. Flores, who only speaks Spanish, was accompanied by interpreter Lisa Hernandez for her initial hearing. Flores sniffled as she walked into the courtroom. Flores told police Eduardo be-
came sick May 23, eventually becoming too weak to feed himself or form coherent sentences. Early in the morning of May 24, Eduardo was cold to the touch, unresponsive and wasn’t breathing. Posso and Flores decided then to send him to the hospital with Posso. At the hospital, Posso was unable to explain what was wrong with Eduardo, only describing him as skinny. At a Tuesday press conference, Monroe County Sheriff ’s Office Lt. Jennifer Allen said Eduardo had
0% body fat. He weighed about 50 pounds. Posso and Flores were sent to the sheriff ’s office for interviews based on the condition of Eduardo’s body. He was severely emaciated and covered in bruises, lacerations and ulcers. A later autopsy revealed signs of starvation, neglect and physical abuse. Posso admitted to spanking Eduardo with a leather belt, a flip flop and his hand in an interview with police at the hospital, but denied withholding food from the child. The family is originally from Florida, and Flores told police they have no permanent address and moved from place to place every couple of weeksfor work and lived out of hotel rooms. The family had been living at the Economy Inn for about a week. Police searched Posso’s cell phone, hotel room and car. A text in Spanish sent between Posso and Flores’ cell phones on April 16 was translated to read, “Eduardo was almost out of the chains.” A search of the hotel room discovered metal chains, cordage, restraint cuffs, padlocks, an electric shock dog collar and a wireless surveillance camera. The items were found underneath the box springs of one of

and United States Department of Agriculture. The Bloomington Farmers’ Market responded. It told Ang it would not remove Schooner Creek Farm. “To our knowledge, this vendor has not shared these views at Market and has treated customers with respect,” said Marcia Veldman, program/facility coordinator for Bloomington’s Parks and Recreation Department, in an email response to Ang. “The City is constitutionally prohibited from discriminating against someone because of their belief system, no matter how abhorrent those views may be. The City may only intercede if an individual's actions violate the safety and human rights of others.” * * * The first comment is innocuous enough. “Thanks @Deleted User,” Volkmom posted Sept. 9, 2017. It’s the start of a year and a half of comments on the popular messaging app Discord. Unicorn Riot, a reporting collective focused on covering social and environmental issues, released Volkmom’s messages in March 2019 as part of a 770,000-post leak from Identity Evropa servers on Discord. The leak revealed Identity Evropa helped plan the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, according to a post on Unicorn Riot. Volkmom posted frequently on the group’s main server, “Nice Respectable People Group” and another titled “MacGuyver - Skills & Academics.” “Volk” is a German word for people. It and the adjective “voelkisch,” which means "people’s", were used by the Nazis to distinguish Germans from those they labeled inferior, according to the BBC. In some of her comments, Volkmom wrote about farming and posted pictures of her vegetables under the hashtag “gardening.” Some of her comments were a mixture of the mundane and the extreme.

Pete Buttigieg talks foreign policy, more at IU By Claire Peters clapete@iu.edu | @claire_peterss

A photo of Won-Joon Yoon and a Korean flag form the center of a memorial to Yoon outside the Korean United Methodist Church of Bloomington, Ind., Monday, July 5, 1999. Yoon, a 26-year-old Indiana University student, was shot and killed by white supremacist Benjamin Nathaniel Smith, who targeted minorities in a deadly Fourth of July weekend shooting spree in two states.
Won-Joon Yoon’s murder, 20 years later By Abby Malala abbridge@iu.edu | @abbymalala
A memorial stone sits on the front lawn of Bloomington’s Korean United Methodist Church on East Third Street, passed by people who don’t know who it’s memorializing. The man who died on July 4, 1999 was named Won-Joon Yoon. He was a member of the church. He was 26. What the memorial doesn’t say is Yoon’s death was the culmination of a three-day long shooting spree across Illinois and Indiana committed by a known white supremacist who had been spreading hate in Bloomington for over a year. It doesn’t say Yoon was murdered in broad daylight on the church’s front lawn. * * * The Fourth of July fell on a Sunday in 1999. Yoon had just been accepted to IU’s doctoral economics program after completing bachelor’s and master’s degrees at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois. Yoon wanted to return home to South Korea for the summer before he began his career at IU but moved to Bloomington to familiarize himself with his new college

town. His father insisted it was a good idea, according to an IDS article. He had only been living in Bloomington for about a month and a half when the Fourth of July rolled around. As Yoon waited outside the Korean United Methodist Church with fellow congregants on Sunday morning, 21-year-old Benjamin Nathaniel “August” Smith fired four shots into the crowd from his car parked at the front of the church. Two shots hit Yoon in the lower back. Fellow IU student Pyung Ho Kim was next to Yoon when the shooting occurred. Kim said in an interview with the Indiana Daily Student the next day he thought the sounds of gunfire were firecrackers. It wasn’t until a bleeding Yoon fell on Kim that anyone had realized what had happened. The shooting occurred at 10:54 a.m. By 11:47 a.m., Yoon was dead.
The Bloomington Police Department reported an unidentified man followed Smith’s light blue 1994 Ford Taurus all the way to Nashville, Indiana, noting the license plate number and bringing the information back to officers in Bloomington. Later that day, Smith stole a van from a gas station in Ina, Illinois, after abandoning his own vehicle. He was pursued in a police chase down a two-lane highway in southern Illinois. Ultimately Smith committed suicide 37 miles away in Salem, Illinois. He was pronounced dead at about 10:40 p.m. Sunday. * * * Though he hadn’t yet started classes at IU, Yoon helped count ballots for the IU Board of Trustees election. He also had a passion for airplanes and a cat named SoHo. Yoon had flown to the United States from his hometown of Seoul, South Korea to begin his bachelor’s degree in aviation management at SIU, according to an Indiana Daily Student report. He went on to complete a master’s in economics before moving to Bloomington. Flowers were piled around a framed photo of Yoon at a July 6 press conference on the lawn of the

Korean United Methodist Church. Mourners added flowers as Yoon’s father Shin Ho Yoon expressed his grief over the loss of his only son. “With his death, gone are the dreams, hopes and happiness my family has had with my son,” he said, according to an IDS report. “He was gunned down by one insane, full of racial hatred, young American man.” Despite losing his son, Yoon’s father said he still saw Bloomington and IU as a safe, welcoming place after witnessing the community’s outpouring of support for Won-Joon. In a letter to the IDS published on July 8, 1999, an exgirlfriend of Yoon’s remembered his devotion to his religion and his kindness. “The Won-Joon I knew was a sensitive, caring and religiously devout individual who enjoyed and appreciated America’s diversity while maintaining a quiet pride about his Korean heritage,” Abigail Baker wrote. Baker also called for Americans to take action against the gun violence happening in America at the time. Just months earlier a shooting at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado had claimed the lives of 15 people, including both shooters. READ THE FULL LONGFORM PIECE AT IDSNEWS.COM/ WELCOMEBACK
South Bend, Indiana Mayor and 2020 presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg came to the IU Auditorium Tuesday to discuss national security and foreign policy. A packed auditorium with a wide array of ages gave the candidate a standing ovation as he came to the stage. They listened to him speak on the shifting eras and the hope for what the future holds. “My campaign for president has been driven by the awareness that we face not just another presidential election but a transition from one era to another,” Buttigieg said. Buttigieg was introduced by Congressman Lee Hamilton, the namesake for the Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies alongside Sen. Richard Lugar. Hamilton he thinks the 2020 election is one of the most important elections in his lifetime.
“I have great hope for the possibility this moment holds.” Pete Buttigieg, Democratic presidential candidate
In the speech, Buttigieg outlined the tasks the next president needs to accomplish: stopping endless war, reversing the rise of authoritarianism, updating the institutions that help us engage with the world, involving citizens across America in these processes and addressing climate change. “Despite what we hear from this administration, and far too many Republicans in power, climate disruption is here,” Buttigieg said. “It is no longer a distant or theoretical issue, it is a clear and present threat.” His discussion of foreign policies covered a wide range of topics, from wanting to stop engagement in the Middle East, rejoining the Iran nuclear
deal and implementing a two-state solution with Israel and Palestine. He emphasized how the United States should only use force when left with no other alternative. Buttigieg put an emphasis on making foreign policy decisions with the future in mind, making sure choices were made strategically. He said he won’t make policy decisions by tweet. “The pattern is that decisions are made impulsively, erratically, emotionally, and politically with little regard for strategy and no preparation for their long-term consequences,” Buttigieg said in reference to the current administration. While these are actions he would want to take as president, he called on Congress to take initiative with these issues as well. “If members of our military can find the courage to deploy to a war zone, our members of Congress ought to be able to summon the courage to take tough votes on war and peace,” Buttigeig said. On national security, he outlined his plans to improve mental healthcare for veterans, increase the emphasis on cyber defense and change trade policies used by the current administration. At a press conference following the speech, he said Americans are now seeing the consequences of those policies. He said the Trump administration has no strategy, and the tariffs implemented on China serve no purpose other than to provoke them. “We’re poking other countries in the eye without a plan,” he said. “The results are coming down on the back of farmers and American consumers.” Throughout the speech he reiterated the world needs America, but only when it is at its best. “I have great hope for the possibility this moment holds,” Buttigieg said.

After a tornado hit, those affected struggle with loss the storm hit. She never saw a thing until the porch railing curled toward the door. Brosman’s whole family was there. Her husband James died May 17, and the family was having a dinner for the first Father’s Day without him. Mary and James would’ve celebrated their 49th wedding anniversary in October. “It seems like everything all at once is happening,” she said. “Why me?” Brosman stood in her backyard Monday afternoon and looked out at the damage again. The tornado knocked over a tree she was planning on having cut down anyway. “I guess that’s one good thing,” she said.

Trapped in a cage as the world around her ripped open, seven-pound Jack Russell terrier Dottie watched as a tornado tore off the front of her owner’s house Saturday evening and scrambled much of the inside into an uninhabitable pile of debris, mementos and insulation. Oddly enough, Dottie’s cage wasn’t moved by the tornado, which the National Weather Service said hit a high of 130 miles per hour in its 3.7 mile path through Monroe County. Two days later, she’s still shaking. “She saw it all,” her owner Tina Paynter said. Tina and her husband John, both 52 years old, were at their Dittemore Road home Saturday evening. They both heard the sirens warning of the tornado earlier, but it wasn’t until John saw the tornado through the back patio door that the threat became real. He shouted: “It’s here!” They went to Tina’s sister’s house next door to help lift Tina’s 28-year-old handicapped niece off of the bed and place her under it. That’s when glass flew into the room as the wind broke the windows. Tina said she had never seen John so scared until that moment. When the storm had passed, John and Tina walked back to the house through the back door. In the dark, the damage seemed manageable: some fallen trees, a rain gutter partially pulled off the roof, some things thrown here and there in the laundry room. The devastation was undeniable by the time they reached the kitchen. The dining room, the bedroom and the living room were destroyed, their contents strewn about. John and Tina’s house is one of the most heavily damaged homes after the tornado. No injuries have been reported after Saturday’s storm, only

fallen trees and damage to homes, barns and sheds. “It’s easy to say afterwards you’re grateful to be alive, but we’ve lived here for 30 years,” John said. “To see it scattered, it’s kind of hard to take. It’s not much, but it was ours.” * * * There was a randomness to what was taken and what was left intact. The contents of the china cabinet in the Paynters’ living room remained unscathed, as did a heart made from roses on the wall of their ruined bedroom. On West Cowden Road in Ellettsville, Indiana, 49-yearold Greg White was surprised to find an uprooted tree inches away from an untouched collection of stones, a makeshift graveyard for his children’s pets. While the final resting places of Coco the chihuahua and Banana Smoothie the gerbil remained safe,
the rest of White’s property wasn’t so lucky. His yard is now covered in fallen trees, including his favorite maple. Out front, a pile of brush burned next to his driveway. White was celebrating Fathers’ Day with his wife and children with a weekend camping trip to Lake Sullivan, a little over an hour’s drive away from Ellettsville. They heard the sirens while at a fish fry and only drove home once a neighbor called and told White his yard had been hit by a tornado, ending the trip a day early. White’s next door neighbor, 71-year-old Mary Howerton, was at home when the tornado hit. She and her 26-year-old granddaughter Danyal gathered a blanket, a pillow and her dog Harley and went to the bathroom in the center of the house. “We’re gonna die, Mamaw, we’re gonna die,” Danyal said. “We’re not gonna die to-
day, sweetie,” Howerton replied. They heard a thud. Howerton got up to investigate. “Don’t go, Mamaw,” Danyal said. “Don’t go!” A tree had fallen and hit the corner of the house, lodging itself in the roof and only causing a little internal damage to the ceiling of Howerton’s bedroom. The fallen tree now takes up most of the view from her window. The power was out for a couple hours, but she had a generator ready to go thanks to her husband Dave’s preparations. Dave died of cancer three years ago, and White has been helping her out with little things ever since. White, who she calls “Lumpy,” turned off the generator for her when the power came back on later that night. “My husband always took care of this,” she said. “Now it’s up to me. It’s really hard on me because I don’t know
what to do or where to start.” She started to cry. White put an arm around her. “We’ll take care of it,” he said. * * * Mary Brosman, 75, lives further down West Cowden Road. Saturday’s tornado wasn’t the first one she’s seen in her 40 years living in Ellettsville. In 1992, one destroyed her entire home. This time around, the tornado twisted the railing of her front porch toward the front door, damaged her roof, tore the top off one of her backyard sheds and turned another shed upside down. Her garage was completely lifted off the ground and thrown into the fields behind her house. A trailer in the driveway rolled into the backyard. Brosman was sitting in a recliner looking out the glass of her front door when
The roads where the tornado hit are bordered with fallen trees and debris. The sound of men with chainsaws cutting through trunks fill the air. Now comes the waiting, for insurance companies to provide estimates of damages and options for those affected, for repairmen and tree service people to come and clear out what they can, for life to return to normal. The Paynter home is on property that’s been in Tina’s family for over 100 years. John and Tina will remain on the property, living in a custom tiny home John built four or five months ago with Dottie and their other small dog, Jasmine. Tina said the house will probably be bulldozed over, but now they’re sorting through what they can salvage before rain destroys what the tornado didn’t. “I wanted some remodeling done, but I didn’t want it this way,” Tina said. “But it’s just stuff. It can be replaced.” This article was originally published June 17.

She complained about her mother-in-law. “anyone have any examples of blatant anti-white rhetoric , headlines, quotes etc off the top of your head for my boomer MIL?” she wrote Feb. 2. “She is telling me she hasn't seen anything like that.

Identity Evropa, complimenting the group on its treatment of women. She tagged the group’s leader, Patrick Casey, in a post on Nov. 28, 2018. “Three cheers for @Reinhard Wolff,” she wrote, using Casey’s username. “Congratulations on one year anniversary, and here's to many more! I am proud to be in IE. Long live Identity Evropa!!!” This is the woman many people believe to be Sarah Dye, the co-owner of Schooner Creek Farm in Brown County, Indiana. * * * Thomas Westgard is a carpenter from the Bloomington area who sells maple syrup and wood crafts at the farmers’ market in Nashville, Indiana. He said in the past he bought things from Dye and Mackey’s booth and exchanged hellos. “We were never close, I didn’t know them well or vice versa, but I’ve certainly seen them around often enough,” Westgard said. He said he had heard Dye
and Mackey were white supremacists through his social justice activist contacts for a long time before he could definitely prove it. He said he alerted the Nashville Farmers’ Market board April 30 about the allegations. Westgard said he asked Dye if she was a white supremacist. She denied it. People told him about racist comments Dye and Mackey allegedly made, but he felt he didn’t have enough evidence to do something. “Without a recording or some sort of documentation, there’s just too much room for some sort of misunderstanding at that point,” he said. That changed during the last week of May, when an FBI interview with Nolan Brewer was released to the public. In July 2018, Brewer and his wife, Kiyomi, painted swastikas and iron crosses on a Carmel, Indiana synagogue and originally planned to detonate homemade explosives before becoming scared, according to BuzzFeed. In the interview, Brewer
detailed his meetings with other members of Identity Evropa. He said he and his wife had dinner with a couple named Sarah and Douglas. They met through Discord. Sarah posted under the name Volkmom, he said. When the testimony was released, anti-fascist organizations acted fast. They tracked down Volkmom through the Discord leaks and cross-reference photos she had posted on the forums with photos on a Steemit blog under Dye’s name. Steemit allows users to blog for cryptocurrency called Steem. The blog identified Dye as the co-owner of Schooner Creek Farm. The posts have since been deleted. There were other photos besides the ones on the Dye’s blog. On Feb. 14, a user named Piet Dietzel posted pictures of a steel structure being constructed in front of a chicken coop in a “Nice Respectable People Group” channel called “activism photos.” The channel was used by Identity Evropa members

to post pictures of different places where they had left stickers and posters promoting the group. Piet Dietzel posted pictures of Identity Evropa signs and symbols he or she had left around the Indianapolis area, including at the IU-Purdue University Indianapolis campus and the Veterans Memorial Plaza. When Piet Dietzel posted the pictures of the steel structure, he or she asked someone to superimpose a dragon’s eye, the Identity Evropa symbol, on a picture. A user named Brunswick asked what Piet Dietzel was doing. Volkmom responded. “Constructing a high tunnel/ greenhouse for growing organic vegetables,” she replied. In one of the pictures Piet Dietzel posted, two people stand side-by-side with their faces not in the photos. They are standing next to steel beams, some of which are small enough to be bundled together with plastic. Two of the bundles are labeled. When the picture is flipped, the labels become
clear: “Douglas Mackey D1” and “Douglas Mackey End Walls D1.” Westgard said once he had Brewer’s testimony, he felt he could speak out. In a June 1 Facebook post addressed to the Nashville Farmers’ Market Board, Westgard said Dye lied about being a white supremacist and demanded she be expelled from the market. “None of us holds any special right to be a part of a farmers' market, nor is any of us obligated to retain in a farmers' market persons who hold views we dislike," Westgard wrote. "Any suggestion that the Board cannot expel a vendor due to a difference of opinion is an inaccurate understanding of the First Amendment." A former vendor contacted the Nashville Farmers’ Market board on May 25 about Schooner Creek Farm and shared more information in the following days, wrote new board president Kara Hammes in an email to the Indiana Daily Student. Board members spent the week reviewing the information before removing Dye as president on June 1, the same day as Westgard’s Facebook post. The board is still reviewing its options under its 2019 vendor contract and cannot comment on any changes or decisions at this time. Sarah Dye and Douglas Mackey did not respond to email, phone and in-person requests for comment. * * * The Saturday after Abby Ang’s letter was sent, Mackey set up a lush display of leafy greens and burgundy beets at the Bloomington Farmers’ Market. Across the market, Abby Ang and other protestors handed out fliers asking patrons to avoid the Schooner Creek Farm booth. One table had pins which read “Don’t Buy Veggies From Nazis.” Ang said she found out about Schooner Creek Farm from a friend on Facebook. She started working at informational tables at the market

for two organizations, the Monroe County Indiana Chapter of the National Organization for Women and Democracy for Monroe County. “I wanted to get a letter out as soon as possible in order to help the community feel empowered,” Ang said. Ang shared her friend’s message in a Facebook post May 31, where it got over 100 comments. Bloomington community members shared their dismay and their experiences with Schooner Creek Farm. A woman named Dana Mackey, who claimed to be Douglas Mackey’s sister, commented on the post. “Me, my sister and my own mother have tried with them,” she wrote. “Good luck if you can change their mind when my own mother can not. Sarah is garbage and deserves to be run out of every business and town she happens to slither into. She is not worth one ounce of your effort.” Dana Mackey did not respond to requests for comment. * * * Even if Ang files complaints with the health department and the USDA, it’s unlikely Schooner Creek Farm would be removed from the Bloomington Farmers’ Market. Joseph Tomain is a lecturer for the IU Maurer School of Law who specializes in free speech rights. He said removing the farm from the farmers’ market, which is run by the City of Bloomington, would be in violation of Dye and Mackey’s First Amendment rights. “So if all you have here is a vendor, who is participating in the farmers market like everybody else, and it just happens to be that they're racists, they have the right to participate in the market,” Tomain said. Tomain said one way the government can prohibit someone’s free speech is if it passes the Brandenburg incitement test. For the government to
restrict the speech of someone advocating a crime or use of force, it must prove the speech is “directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action” and is “likely to incite or produce such action,” according to the Cornell Law School Legal Information Institute. “People are people, some are good, some are bad,” Tomain said. “And in our democracy, we tolerate living with diverse viewpoints.” While the First Amendment protects hate speech, it also protects Americans' rights to protest against that speech, Tomain said. He said many of the free speech protections that exist today came from cases involving civil rights activists. “But when we think about the bigger picture, the last thing I think that we want to do is start to curtail First Amendment rights based on the viewpoint of speech because that could turn around and be used against individuals who are seeking to express messages of justice and equality,” Tomain said. Ang wrote in an email she plans to submit her complaints following a Farmers' Market Advisory Council meeting on June 17, which is open to the public. A public Bloomington United meeting about the incident is planned for 5:30 p.m. Wednesday in the Hooker Conference Room in City Hall. Ang said she and others will continue to protest Schooner Creek Farm’s presence at the market until Dye and Mackey leave for good, even if her official complaints are rejected. “The way I see it, if the city government can’t or won’t do anything to actually ban them, then citizens can still boycott the vendor itself and its booth,” she wrote in a text message. “They can still ask the city to look at their policies for vendors. They can still run them out of the farmers’ market simply by making no money.” This story was originally published June 17.
KKK flyers disturb residents By Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @annabelaguiar
When Annalia Hopper saw the flyer, she screamed. An image of a Ku Klux Klan member pointed out from the paper at the 22-year-old IU student, a reference to the Uncle Sam recruiting poster. In bold letters, it read: “Honorable Sacred Knights of the Ku Klux Klan Neighborhood Watch.” “Do your part to keep white communities safe and report all suspicious activity!” the flyer read. “You can sleep tonight knowing the Klan is awake!” The flyer was one of multiple found Monday morning in the driveways and parking lots of Bloomington residences, a discovery that has left many feeling disturbed and unsafe. The flyer Hopper saw was found on North Dunn Street, where Hopper lives in an apartment building with her 21-year-old boyfriend Dylan Miller. Both Hopper and Miller said they are white. “It’s just a terrible, terrible, terrible thing,” Hopper said. Miller walked out to his car at 7 a.m. to get a pair of shoes for work. He saw a zip-close bag containing two Tootsie Pop lollipops and a flyer next to the car, but didn’t see what the flyer said until he got another look. After bringing it inside and showing Hopper, he got dressed and walked around the neighborhood looking for more before going into work. “It literally makes me want to cry,” he said. A phone number and an email were listed at the bottom of the flyer. Calling the number leads to the prerecorded recruitment voice message for the Honorable Sacred Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, which offers information on how to join. “If it ain’t white, it ain’t right,” the voice message ends. “White power.” Some have questioned whether or not the flyers are

Recruitment flyers for the Ku Klux Klan appeared Monday in driveways and parking lots of multiple Bloomington residences. The city has asked residents to report flyers to the police.
real, but a KKK member confirmed to the Indiana Daily Student they were genuine. Nicole Noble, the Imperial Klokan/Chief Investigator for the Honorable Sacred Knights of Indiana, said she didn’t know who exactly distributed the flyers but confirmed they were KKK materials. “All that flyer says is to report suspicious activity,” Noble said over text. “What’s the issue?” The Bloomington Police Department is currently investigating the flyers, and a City of Bloomington press release urges residents to report any more flyers by calling the BPD office number at (812) 339-4477. “Hate has no place in Bloomington, and public safety is a top concern,” said Mayor John Hamilton in the release. “Residents who find additional, similar material or have any information about it should contact our police department.” Miller said when he initially called BPD to report the flyer, a BPD office employee laughed at him. She reportedly said the flyers weren't illegal, so the police weren’t going to do anything about it. BPD declined to com-
ment, pending an investigation. Miller and Hopper said they did speak to police again later, after multiple reports of the flyers had garnered attention. Bloomington resident Brant Moriarity said two families on his street on the south side found the flyers in zipclose bags containing candy in their driveways this morning. The families, who have contacted police but are not going public at this time, both have adopted black children. “It makes me think they were being watched,” he said. “It’s quite disturbing.” The flyer was posted to Facebook earlier today by No Space For Hate Bloomington, an organization denouncing and protesting hatred and white supremacy. Abby Ang, an IU Ph.D. student and lead organizer of the group, said August is recruitment season for the KKK as students return for the semester. However, Ang said tensions this summer surrounding allegations of white supremacy against farmers’ market vendor Schooner Creek Farm and national concerns have led to a heightened response. “Because of the white su-
premacist shooting in El Paso this weekend and because of the community tension around the farmer’s market, people are very much alert to increases of white supremacy happening,” she said. “Everyone is justifiably nervous. We don’t want something like Charlottesville or that kind of shooting to happen here.” Ang said No Space for Hate Bloomington is discussing distributing their own flyers with positive, inclusive messages in response. After seeing the flyer this morning, Hopper said she had a panic attack and has been anxious all day. Miller said he was distracted at his job today thinking about the flyer, unable to function. When he got off of work, Miller rode his bike around town looking for more flyers to get rid of, and some of his friends did the same. He said he wants to do anything he can to counter a KKK presence in Bloomington. “This can’t happen,” Miller said. “In this day and age, it doesn’t need to happen. We don’t even feel safe.” Additional reporting for this story was done by Ellen Hine. This story was originally published July 5.

Music school camper stabbed by acquaintance By Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @annabelaguiar
After 17-year-old Dongwook Ko allegedly lured a 13-year-old girl away from practicing violin to an upstairs room where he strangled, slashed and stabbed her repeatedly before fleeing the scene, he called his mom. “I don’t know what I did,” Ko told his mother on the phone July 12. “I may have hurt her.” Dongwook Ko apKo peared in court Wednesday on charges of attempted murder, aggravated battery, kidnapping, confinement, battery and strangulation, wearing the same button-up shirt as in his mugshot. He is being tried as an adult. Ko’s lawyer Carl Salzmann said given Ko’s mental health, a psychiatric evaluation would be necessary to see if he’s fit to stand trial. He told Judge Darcie Fawcett he intends to file a formal request for a competency evaluation in the case tomorrow. Fawcett also signed a no contact order between Ko and the 13-year-old girl. The 13-year-old girl was a student at the Jacobs School of Music Summer String Academy, a program for children ages 5-18 studying violin or cello. Ko is an acquaintance of hers who attended the program last summer, according to the probable cause affidavit. Ko is a Bloomington resident, while the girl is from Florida. The girl was practicing her
violin last Friday in room 388 of the Music Annex Building when Ko entered the room and told her a teacher wanted to speak to her on the fourth floor. She told police he led her to a locker room before throwing her and pinning her against a locker with his arm and hand. When she started to scream and fight him off, he placed his hand over her mouth. She kicked him, and they fell to the floor, where the fight continued. Ko began to choke her before pressing a tactical folding knife against her throat, according to the affidavit. “Oh my God,” she told police she thought during the attack. “This can’t be happening to me.” She said he then got on top of her and began to slash and stab her with the knife. He cut her around 10 times, mostly superficial wounds to the girl’s limbs. Three larger injuries would require suturing at the hospital later, one on her right calf and two large cuts on her left hand — her violin hand. She kept screaming during the attack. She told police she was scared no one would come, and that it would be too late. She said she thought she was going to die. Then she heard footsteps. In his office down the hall from the locker room, IU employee Ronald Sebben heard the screams. At first, he thought it was String Academy students goofing around but decided to check out the sounds when he heard them again. He found the two and pulled Ko off of the girl. She

broke away. Sebben stopped her for a second, but he told police she looked so scared he let her go. She ran to a room her friend and camp roommate was practicing in, next to her original practice room. Her friend said the girl entered the room screaming and bleeding from the arms and hands before the two found camp counselors, one of whom called 911 after seeing the girl running down a stairwell screaming. They waited for the ambulance crew in the third floor lobby. The girl told police every time the stair door or elevators opened, she thought it was Ko. Meanwhile, Sebben took Ko downstairs so he could call the police, but Ko ran. Sebben
chased him out of the building, but Ko got away. Ko called his mother Jee Yeon Kim before driving home in the family’s Land Rover, according to the affidavit. She told police he hadn't seemed upset that day and had told her he was going to meet a friend at Merrill Hall and get lunch. When he came home at 10:10 a.m., there was blood on his arms and clothing. Kim saw small cuts on his arms and told police she thought the blood was his at the time. He then told his mother he had pulled a prank on a girl by telling her to follow him before placing his hand over her mouth to keep her quiet. He said she started to scream so he choked her and they started wrestling, and the knife fell
out of his pocket. He said she ran away after they wrestled for a bit. Ko showed his mother the knife, which he had placed in a Kleenex Box before putting it in a clear Tupperware container in the kitchen with a few inches of water. Before police arrived, Kim told her son to change his clothing. When officers arrested Ko at his residence, he and Kim showed them the knife in the Tupperware. Ko will remain in the Monroe County Jail until his bail review hearing, which was rescheduled to 9 a.m. Friday. His bond is set at $150,500. His first pre-trial conference is scheduled for 2 p.m. Sept. 4. This story was originally published July 17.
Dongwook Ko released on bail, placed under GPS monitoring, ordered to obey no-contact order By Ellen Hine emhine@iu.edu | @ellenmhine
Dongwook “Mikey” Ko, the 17-year-old accused of stabbing a 13-year-old girl attending a Jacobs School of Music summer camp, has been released on bail and
placed under GPS monitoring at his home, according to court filings. Ko reportedly lured the victim to the fourth floor of Merrill Hall on July 12, where he slashed, strangled and stabbed her before she got

the two beds in the hotel room. The camera had been clamped to the towel bar inside the bathroom, according to an interview with a housekeeper at the hotel. Flores told police she and Posso would use the surveillance camera to watch Eduardo while they were handing out fliers for the circus, leaving him chained or tied in the bathroom. A video discovered on Flores’ phone by police recorded May 19 in Kokomo, Indiana, showed Eduardo chained to the washcloth bar in the bathtub with the shock collar around his neck. In the video, Eduardo’s 9-year old sibling enters the bathroom and looks at him before turning around and walking out. Flores later enters the bathroom and appears to ignore Eduardo in the bathtub. The other children in the family, aged 9, 5, and 2, displayed no signs of abuse or malnourishment, according to the probable cause affidavit. The 9-year-old child said in an interview her brother stopped eating and would be punished for refusing to eat by Posso and Flores, who were trying to give him some sort of medication. The 5-year-old boy drew a stick figure portrait of the family but didn’t include Eduardo, initially denying his existence. He eventually told a child advocacy interviewer Eduardo was "bad" and not part of the family. Posso’s next court appearance is scheduled for 3:00 p.m. July 22 for a pretrial conference. Flores’ first pre-trial conference is scheduled for 3:15 p.m. July 24. A trial date of Nov. 25 has been scheduled for both Posso and Flores. This article was originally published May 31.

Indiana farmers struggle as floods, rain affect crop yields By Avery Williams avefwill@iu.edu | @Avery_faye
There's an old saying about corn crops: "Knee high by the Fourth of July." Hay farmer Joe Peden said the saying stopped being accurate when farmers stopped using horses to harvest. Peden harvests hay and rents out farmland in Monroe County. He said corn should be growing by June 4. But by mid-July, his renters’ corn is two weeks behind schedule and just beginning to grow tassels. May 2018 to April 2019 was the wettest 12 month period on record in the United States, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Heavy rain and snowfall saturated the ground with water, so 49% of U.S. corn planting was not completed by May 19, a record low. Peden harvests hay on a 200 acre plot. He said he prefers to have three days with no rainfall before he cuts the hay so the hay is dry. "I don't like to get my hay wet, so I won't cut it if it's a 20% chance," Peden said. "But that's been everyday." Peden said he is still cutting his first round of hay. Normally, he would be on his second cutting.
IDS FILE PHOTO
Joe Peden poses in front of a bale of hay on his property July 8, 2015, at Peden Farm in Bloomington. Peden is one of many farmers struggling to produce crops this year due to excessive rainfall.
"I don't even hardly remember last year after this year's disaster," Peden said. Peden rents farmland to crop farmers. He said his renter Jeff Deck had 400 acres under water during this year's heavy rainfall and flooding. Another one of Peden's renters, Larry Stanger, had his crops damaged by recent tornadoes and flooding. Some of the farmland is too wet for heavy farm
equipment to travel on, Peden said. This delays planting, fertilizing and the spraying of pesticides. "It's a rat race, and the rats are four steps ahead," Peden said. Farmers have had problems with the rain since fall of 2018, said Troy Hobson, the county executive director for the Monroe USDA Farm Service Agency. Heavy rainfall made it difficult for
farmers to harvest crops last year. Hobson said the ground is beginning to dry but has a long way to go. Corn and soybean farmers normally plant their crops in mid-May, Hobson said. But many could not get seeds in the ground until mid- to late-June. Hobson said the livelihood of farmers and their families could be affected within the next
year. It is difficult to estimate profit loss until farmers finish harvesting and competitively price their product. "If they can't make a profit, then it's gonna be tough to keep going," Hobson said. "They have obligations to make a living like everyone else." Hobson said this year's crop yield may affect pig and cow farmers as well. Grain, often corn, is fed to pigs and cows. If there is less corn to feed the animals than in previous years, the price of corn may go up. According to a press release, Gov. Eric Holcomb requested the USDA grant agricultural disaster designation for 88 Indiana counties, including Monroe. Holcomb’s press secretary Rachel Hoffmeyer said the request is still being considered. Hobson said any disaster events can be cause for an agricultural disaster designation. "It takes a 30% loss of just one crop," Hobson said. "It could be due to flooding, excessive rainfall or any kind of disaster event." If Holcomb's request is granted, struggling farmers will be able to apply for low interest loans from the USDA. Michael Hicks, owner
of Living Roots Farm, said this year has not been more difficult for him than years past. The only change he has noticed in his crops is more weeds. "This is one of our highest harvests ever," Hicks said. Hicks farms differently than most large scale farms. He only grows on five acres of his 75 acre farm and plants roughly 300 varieties of crops. "We have all the produce items you think of and some you don't," Hicks said. "All of our eggs aren't in one basket." Hicks said his diversified farm uses raised beds for planting. These beds come six to eight inches off the ground and are five feet wide. He said the beds prevent drowning and help drainage. Hicks said he and his employees plan to harvest 80,000 pounds of food by the end of the season. By using specialized smaller equipment and doing work by hand, Hicks said he is able to adapt to the weather conditions. Hicks said struggling farmers should work on building their farmland's soil for better drainage. "It's a hard model to fix when you only plant one crop," Hicks said.

Cyclists ride into Bloomington after cross-country biking trip By Avery Williams avefwill@iu.edu | @ Avery_faye
Family, friends and even a firetruck welcomed home 46 deCycles riders at 4 p.m. Sunday from a 25 day-long trip from Arizona to Montana. The tanned cyclists looked exhausted but finished their journey strong as they rode to the Monroe County Courthouse for the welcome home gathering. Dr. Norm Houze spends around seven months planning the deCycles
trip each year. The 2019 trip was Houze’s 26th year participating. “It’s a modern pilgrimage,” Houze said. According to the deCycles’s website, about half the group flew from Indiana to Tucson, Arizona, to begin the ride while the others were driven. The group began biking at the Saguaro National Park and traveled to the Grand Canyon. From there, the bikers rode to Salt Lake City and
then Yellowstone National Park. They completed the journey at Montana’s Great Falls and were driven back to Bloomington. Once they arrived, they mounted their bikes again to ride to the courthouse with a firetruck escort. Half of this year’s participants were inexperienced cyclists, Houze said. He said the riders began training for the cross-country trip in April. Leela Breithaupt’s son Noah Breithaupt was 2019’s
youngest deCycles rider. He turned 13 on the trip. Leela said Houze worked with different churches around the country months in advance to find housing for the group. The riders would sleep on church floors after long days of cycling. deCycles’ riders stored sleeping and food items on a large van following their route. IU junior and Little 500 biker Brandon Soni had another name for the van: “The Wussy Wagon.” The
first time deCycles’ rider said he was proud he made it through the strenuous cycling without having to give up and ride in the van because his knee started to give out seven days into the trip. “We rode a 187 mile day with 9,000 feet of climbing,” Soni said. The group would ride from around 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Soni said. He rode his Trek Émonda Air through eight national parks on the trip, including Zion and
Yellowstone national parks. Houze said the deCycles group faced very serious weather conditions in Yellowstone. Hail bounced off of the bikers’ helmets as they rode. Some shivered uncontrollably. Although the deCycles group had a few crashes along their 1,500 mile journey, Houze said it was a great ride. “It’s not a bike trip, it’s a life trip,” Houze said.

Indy Pride, the annual event celebrating the LGBTQ community of Indianapolis and beyond, took place June 8 in a sea of glitter and decorative fans. The notes of “I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor could be heard blocks away from the parade down Massachusetts Avenue. Rainbow flags decorated windows and entryways of shops. At the end of the day, Lizzo performed in Military Park, the venue for the post-parade festival. She discussed topics such as being an ally and promoting body awareness and self-love. The phrase “Happy Pride” echoed amongst attendees of Indy Pride for the entire day. This photo story was originally published June 9.

Senior catcher Ryan Fineman takes a deep breath before batting May 16 at Bart Kaufman Field. IU played Rutgers and won, 7-5.
BACK ON TOP IU baseball wins the Big Ten regular season title for the first time since 2014
By Matt Cohen mdc1@iu.edu | @Matt_Cohen_
On Senior Day at Bart Kaufman Field, it was two of IU’s seniors leading the celebration as a dogpile ensued in the middle of the infield. Senior catcher Ryan Fineman flipped the ball in the air and tossed his mask to the ground as he caught the final strike. Senior pitcher Pauly Milto was the first one out of the dugout. With a 13-3 win Saturday over Rutgers, IU clinched the outright Big Ten regular season title. In his final game in Bloomington, it was Fineman who first lifted the Big Ten trophy. IU’s Big Ten title is the seventh in program history and the third over the last seven years. IU's last title was in 2014. IU also won the 2013 title. IU Head Coach Jeff Mercer becomes the first Big Ten coach to win a conference title in his first year since 1982. Mercer’s team lost just one series in Big Ten play this season. Mercer’s team put itself in position to win the Big Ten when it took two of three games from Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan. With that series victory, IU was able to cut into Michigan’s lead in the conference standings and put itself with striking distance in the final weekend. Just after 2 a.m. Saturday morning, over 650 miles away from Bart Kaufman Field, Michigan won its series finale against Nebraska, a result that made IU’s scenario simple. It had to win Saturday afternoon to clinch the Big Ten title. A loss would give the title to Michigan. A six run fourth inning led IU to that necessary Saturday win. That inning that put IU ahead for good in a game it trailed early at Bart Kaufman
Field. IU fell behind 1-0 in the first inning and didn’t have a hit until the fourth. Senior Matt Lloyd’s infield single in the bottom of the fourth kicked off a rally. Sophomore Cole Barr drove in Lloyd with a double to tie the game, and Fineman gave IU the lead with a RBI single. IU sophomore Justin Walker extended the lead driving in two runs with a single, and the next batter, sophomore Drew Ashley, drove in two more with another single. IU flipped the script from struggling through the first four innings to a commanding 6-1 lead. Rutgers added two runs in the top of the fifth, but IU got those runs right back when Barr hit a two-run home run over the College World Series banner in center field. IU continued to pad its lead over the remainder of the game, scoring two runs in the seventh and three in the

eighth to reach its 13 run total. On Friday night, IU cruised to an 11-4 win. IU junior Tanner Gordon struck out six over seven innings pitched. He allowed just two runs on three hits. The Hoosier lineup hit four total home runs in the game, including two from junior Scotty Bradley.
Junior Matt Gorski hit a home run in the top of the first inning to given IU a 1-0 lead. His home run was the 86th of the season for IU, setting a new team single-season record. IU finished the weekend with 90 total home runs. Milto kicked off the series Thursday with a six inning outing where he struck out six

in his final home start. Milto recorded the win, his eighth of the season. Though it was a different senior that led IU to a 7-5. Though the crucial moment was a sixth inning home run from another senior, Matt Lloyd. IU faced deficits of 4-2 and
5-4 in the game. Trailing by one run in the sixth, IU tied the game on a Gorski double before Lloyd hit a long home run out to straight-away center field to give IU a 7-5 lead. IU finishes the regular season with a 36-19 record overall and 17-7 in the Big Ten. By virtue of winning the
regular season title, IU will be the No. 1 seed in the Big Ten Baseball Tournament beginning Wednesday in Omaha, Nebraska. IU is scheduled to begin tournament play against the No. 8 seed Iowa at 6 p.m. This story was originally published May 18.

Davis transfers to IU softball after spending one season at Kentucky
Walker, Crail to transfer from IU

IU baseball reportedly will be losing two players from its 2019 team, both of whom saw the field during IU’s Regional appearance in Louisville, Kentucky. Junior infielder Justin Walker and junior outfielder Sam Crail will both leave after Head Coach Jeff Mercer’s first season. Walker will transfer to Purdue. Crail’s destination is still yet to be determined. Walker played in 46 games this spring and started 38 of them. He became IU’s starter at shortstop during the latter half of the 2019 season. Walker had his best stretch of the season in IU’s final six Big Ten regular season games as the team came back to win the conference championship. Walker drove in six runs during those six games and had a hit in all six. Walker finished his sophomore season with a .210 batting average, two home runs and 18 RBIs. Crail started 18 games for IU in 2019 and played in 26. His starts often came in
place on an injured player or one in need of an off day. Crail hit .224 with one home run and 10 RBIs during the 2019 season. What does this mean for the Hoosiers? Walker played a much bigger role than Crail during the 2019 season, but both losses will affect the way Mercer’s lineup will look in 2020. Walker seemed like a lock to be a starter at shortstop next season, also having the potential to start at second base. Junior Drew Ashley played second base for IU in 2019, but moved to the outfield when Matt Gorski was injured against Illinois State University to open the Louisville regional. Gorski has since signed a pro contract with the Pittsburgh Pirates, and it seemed like Ashley could take the open outfield spot. With Walker’s departure, Ashley will likely stay at second base, and Jeremy Houston would appear to be the clear option at shortstop. With 18 starts in the outfield, Crail would have had a
chance to take Gorski's spot, if he wasn't leaving. Sophomore Grant Richardson may move from right field over to center field, and there is the potential for Logan Kaletha to return if given a medical redshirt for the 2019 season. This all may leave an open spot for incoming freshman Ethan Vecrumba. The outfield spots seem much more uncertain than the infield at this point. Especially if junior Elijah Dunham becomes a first baseman in place of Matt Lloyd, a position he has played in Bloomington. Of the 10 IU players drafted, eight have signed. IU will now lose another starter in Walker, and a potential one in Sam Crail. It’s a page turn as Mercer brings in more of his own players and Chris Lemonis’ players leave. With a recruiting class featuring Vecrumba, Reese Sharp, Brant Voth and recent commit A.J. Hacker, the 2019 Kentucky Gatorade Player of the Year, Mercer is stocking the team with young players he recruited to fill the holes left by the 2019 departures.

IU softball gained a new acquisition Thursday in Hannah Davis, who played her freshman season at University of Kentucky. Davis has history with IU Coach Shonda Stanton. When Stanton coached at Marshall University in 2017, she heavily recruited Davis out of Scott County High School in Georgetown, Kentucky. Davis led the team to three state championships and was a four-time AllRegion, All-District and team Offensive MVP selection.
» KNIGHT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Knight said in the interview. “And as far as the hierarchy at Indiana University at that time, I have absolutely no respect whatsoever for those people. And with that in mind, I have no interest in ever going back
In her senior year, she hit .600 with 71 hits, 75 RBI and 13 home runs. Davis was also named a Premier Girls Fastpitch High School All-American and First Team All-State. She also played travel ball for the Louisville Sluggers. Davis was originally committed to Marshall, but when Stanton took the helm at IU in June of 2017, Davis reopened her options. She decided to stay in-state and play for Kentucky. At Kentucky, Davis appeared in five games for the Wildcats, finishing with
two hits, one double and two runs scored. "Hannah was originally committed to us at our previous institution, so we are extremely familiar with her and her family," Stanton said in an IU athletics press release. "We are excited to have this second opportunity to coach her. She is a talented ball player who will have an immediate impact as a utility infielder with the ability to provide an offensive spark to our lineup."
to that university.” But after his public return on April 6, fans became hopeful. In March, it was reported that Knight's health was in decline. In April, when Knight spoke at Center Grove High School, he had some memory lapses dur-
ing certain stories. There is no current update on Knight's health, but Hoosier fans can expect to see the coach that last brought the program a national title a little more often. This story was originally published July 10.

IU wins Governor's Cup for the 2018-19 athletic season after Big Ten performance By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1
IU won the Governor's Cup for the 2018-19 athletic season after both the men's and women's teams finished as runners-up at the track and field Big Ten
Championship on Sunday. The Hoosiers bested the Boilermakers by a final margin of 10.5-9.5. The Governor’s Cup is a yearly competition that was created in 2001 that measures head-to-head competitions between both
schools’ men’s and women’s athletic programs. After each head-to-head event, the winner will be given one point. If the respective sports play twice in a season, then each victory will be given a half of a point.
This season, IU received points from women’s crosscountry, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s tennis, women’s basketball, baseball, softball and men’s and women’s track and field in both indoor and outdoor competi-
tion. Before Jan. 26, IU only had one point from women’s cross-country and trailed Purdue 6-1. IU closed out the season by winning 9.5 points compared to Purdue’s 3.5 to gain bragging rights for this
year’s athletic programs. With the win this year, IU is now 9-7-2 all-time against Purdue in the Governor’s Cup. This story originally published May 14.

Watford chooses LSU over IU By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1
The recruits haven’t been coming in as successfully as last year for IU men’s basketball. Monday afternoon, Trendon Watford, a five-star McDonald’s All American and brother of former IU player Christian Watford, chose Louisiana State University over IU, which was in his final four teams. Last year, IU Coach Archie Miller was able to bring in five-star recruit Romeo Langford and four-star recruits Rob Phinisee, Jerome Hunter, Damezi Anderson and Jake Forrester. Those five made up one of the top-rated recruiting classes in the nation coming into the last season. Langford declared for the NBA draft, and Forrester transferred to Temple University. Phinisee and Anderson are returning for next season, as is Hunter, who is hopeful to officially play a game after missing the entirety of last season with a leg injury. With Langford and Forrester gone, along with graduating five seniors, Miller has spots to fill on his roster for next season. Watford was the most recent player to decide on a destination other than Bloomington. On May 10, four-star guard Lester Quinones had IU in his final five teams but chose the University of Memphis A few weeks earlier, on April 23, Anthony Harris, a four-star guard recruited by IU, chose the University of North Carolina. Five-star forward Keion Brooks from La Lumiere High School in LaPorte, Indiana, picked University of Kentucky over IU on March 15.

IU Coach Archie Miller looks back at the team during the first half of IU's game against Duke University in the Cameron Indoor Stadium in Durham, North Carolina. IU stayed behind Duke throughout both the first and second half of the game.
That’s not to say Miller hasn’t had any success when it comes to his 2019 recruiting class. On Nov. 30, five-star forward and 2019 Indiana Mr. Basketball Trayce Jackson-Davis from Center Grove High School committed to IU. This will be the second year in a row Miller landed Indiana Mr. Basketball after Langford earned the award in 2018. Miller’s first recruit of the 2019 class came on Sept. 6, when Armaan Franklin, a four-star guard from Cathedral High School, officially announced he would be playing for the Hoosiers. Franklin finished as runner-up to Jackson-Davis in Indiana Mr. Basketball voting. IU also filled another roster spot for next season when sophomore Joey Brunk transferred from Butler University on April
16. This incoming class is only Miller’s second recruiting class since taking the head coaching job in 2017. Five of the seven commits he’s signed in his time recruiting at IU have been from Indiana. Despite the talent and potential Jackson-Davis and Franklin bring to the court, this class hasn’t produced as much hysteria as last year's. After a struggle in his first year at the helm with all of former IU Coach Tom Crean’s recruits, Miller’s second season had high hopes going into it since he had more time implementing his system with returning players along with his first recruiting class. That preconceived notion held true for the season’s first few months as the Hoosiers began the season 12-2 through the nonconference slate and

first few games of Big Ten play, finding themselves ranked No. 22 in the Associated Press top 25. Then, injuries, suspensions and drama led to an onslaught of losses, leaving IU out of the NCAA Tournament for a thirdstraight season. Rumors swirled about the tension in IU’s locker room and how long Miller would keep his job as head coach. Aside from a few transfers, most players who endured the calamity of last season will be looking to correct it this year, but the number of new faces is few and far between. The optimism of this year’s offseason isn’t as high as it was a season ago. With two scholarship spots left to hand out, the recruiting options are starting to dwindle for Miller. This story was originally published May 20.

It was announced Wednesday morning grad transfer Curtis Jones will be coming back to the Big Ten as part of the Penn State basketball program. Jones was recruited by former IU Coach Tom Crean and was a freshman for the Hoosiers in the 2016-17 season. He appeared in 33 games for the Hoosiers that year, averaging 3.5 points per game. His best game was his first game in the cream and crimson against University of Kansas Nov. 11, 2016, in the State Farm Armed Forces Classic in Honolulu, Hawaii. Jones scored 15 points, shooting 3-5 from the behind the 3-point line, including a dagger three with 16 seconds left to defeat the No. 2-ranked Jayhawks 103-99. From there, Jones struggled to find any consistent rhythm with the Hoosiers. When IU Coach Archie Miller was hired as Crean's replacement in 2017, Jones saw his minutes decrease and lasted only seven games before deciding to transfer
from the program Dec. 3, 2017. Jones' new location was Oklahoma State University, and after sitting out a year due to transfer rules, Jones played in 23 games for the Cowboys last season. He averaged 21.9 minutes a game — double his time with IU — and scored 8.1 points per game. With one year of eligibility remaining, Jones decided to put his name in the transfer portal again earlier this year. He will return to the Big Ten and join Penn State, immediately eligible to play. IU played against Penn State last season on the road and won 64-62. When Jones was a member of the Hoosiers, he played against the Nittany Lions twice, totaling 25 minutes combined and scoring four points. IU won both games. Jones will make his return to Bloomington as IU and Penn State will be playing one another at home and away this year. Times and dates are not yet announced for the games.

Romeo Langford selected 14th by the Boston Celtics By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1
Romeo Langford became the 26th player in IU men's basketball history to be selected in the first round of the NBA Draft. Langford was selected 14th by the Boston Celtics Thursday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Langford will enter the NBA after one year of playing for the Hoosiers. The former freshman averaged 16.5 points and 5.4 rebounds per game. His point average was the fifth best among college freshmen last season and ranked first in Big Ten freshmen scoring. Last season saw some inconsistency with Langford's production, which many attributed to the torn ligament in his right thumb — his shooting hand — that wasn't revealed until after the season concluded. Langford had surgery to repair the ligament in April. The surgery kept him from participating in the 2019 NBA combine as well as trying out for NBA teams leading up to the draft.
This inability to try out for teams was why Langford was predicted to be selected outside the lottery, but nonetheless, the former Hoosier was chosen as the final pick in the lottery at 14. "I know what I'm capable of doing," Langford said in his interview on ESPN. "I've been doing it for a long time at a young age, so there wasn't really too much doubt in my head that I was gonna be in the lottery." Langford is the most recent Hoosier to be selected in the first round of the NBA Draft since OG Anunoby in 2017. Anunoby went 23rd to the Toronto Raptors. IU is now tied with Michigan for sixth place alltime among all colleges for the most players drafted in the first round. The Celtics finished 49-33 last season and were fourth in the Eastern Conference, losing in the second round of the playoffs to the Milwaukee Bucks. With All-Star guard Kyrie Irving opting into free agency, there are roles to be filled in the Celtics back court.

Juwan Morgan agrees to free agent deal with Utah Jazz By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1
After going undrafted Thursday night, Juwan Morgan has agreed to a deal with the Utah Jazz. The Athletic's Michael Scotto first reported the deal and Hoops Hype writer Bryan Kalbroksy revealed the details of it. For now, Morgan's undrafted free agent deal is only for the summer league. Morgan is coming off a four-year career at IU. In his senior season, he
averaged 15.5 points and 8.2 rebounds per game. Morgan worked out for the Jazz May 23 and will now hope to get invited to the team’s training camp in the fall to further pursue his goal of making an NBA roster. Since Morgan’s deal is only for the summer league, other NBA teams are allowed to pursue him for the latter stages of the offseason process. Utah will play in the Salt Lake Summer
League — a four-team, six-game event put on by the Jazz on July 1-3 at Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Jazz will then compete in the Las Vegas Summer League, which all 30 NBA teams play in. It will also feature two national teams, China and Croatia. The Las Vegas Summer League will start July 5 through July 15 at Thomas and Mack Cen-

Six Hoosiers announced for IU Six new players Athletics Class of 2019 Hall of Fame added to 2019 volleyball roster By Dylan Wallace
climbed as high as No. 47 in the world golf rankings in 2010.
dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1
IU Vice President and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Fred Glass announced Monday morning the induction of six former Hoosiers to the IU Athletics Class of 2019 Hall of Fame. Eric Anderson, Kay Burrus, Chris Gartner, Jeff Overton, Rose Richmond and Donnie Thomas will be inducted into the Hall of Fame at a dinner Sept. 20 and will be recognized at halftime of the IU football game against University of Connecticut on Sept. 21. The IU Athletics Hall of Fame was established in 1982, making this the 38th class. The total inductees is now at 237. "Each of these Hoosier legends made an indelible mark on Indiana University athletics and their respective programs, and we are thrilled to welcome them into the IU Athletics Hall of Fame," Glass said in a press release. Eric Anderson (men's basketball, 1989-92) Anderson is one of the most prolific players in IU basketball history. He ranks 11th in scoring in program history with 1,715 points, eighth in rebounding with 825 and eighth in blocked shots with 136. He is one of only four players in program history to score more than 1,700 points and pull down at least 800 rebounds. IU went 101-31 during his four seasons. After graduating, Anderson spent two years in the NBA with the New York Knicks from 1992-94. Anderson died in December of 2018 at the age of 48. Kay Burrus (field hockey coach, 1962-74 and 1975-

76; women's basketball coach, 1963-67) Burrus was one of the pioneers for women's athletics on the IU-Bloomington campus. After coming to IU in 1962, she joined the Women's Physical Education program. Burrus then started the women's field hockey team and served as its coach from 1962-74 and then again from 1975-76. In addition to those responsibilities, she also served as the basketball coach for the women's extramural team from 196367, which was the first IUassociated women's basketball team to travel and compete against teams from other universities. Burrus died in June of 2018 at the age of 80. Chris Gartner (football, 1970-72) Gartner, who is from Gothenburg, Sweden, was an All-Big Ten, All-American and record-setting kicker for IU during his player career. He earned first-team AllAmerican and first-team All-Big Ten honors as a se-
nior in 1972 when he established new program records for single-season field goals with 14, field goals in a game with a four and longest field goal at 52 yards. In a 35-34 win against the University of Kentucky his senior season, he kicked both a 51 and 52-yard field goal, making him the only kicker in IU history with two 50-plus yard field goals in a single game. Gartner had a brief career in the NFL, playing 11 games for the Cleveland Browns in 1974. Jeff Overton (men's golf, 2002-05) Overton won nine tournaments in his college career with IU and was a two-time Big Ten Player of the Year winner in 2004 and 2005. To this day, he remains at the top of the program's all-time list for both singleseason scoring at 69.97 in 2005 and career scoring at 71.72. Overton joined the PGA Tour in 2006 where he had success. He was a member of the 2010 U.S. Ryder Cup team, had four runner-up finishes on the tour and
Rose Richmond (track and field, 2000-03) Competing mainly in the horizontal jumps and sprint relays, Richmond won seven Big Ten titles and earned five All-American awards in her IU career. She was the NCAA Indoor runner-up in the long jump in 2003 and remains the school record holder in both the indoor and outdoor long jump events as well as in the 4x100-meter relay. In 2004, Richmond earned a spot on the U.S. Olympic Team. In 2005-07, she had numerous top-three finishes in the long jump at the U.S. National Championships, which got her a spot on the U.S. World Championship team.
Donnie Thomas (football, 1973-75) Thomas was named firstteam All-Big Ten and thirdteam All-America in 1975 after leading the Hoosiers in tackles with 137. He also led the team in tackles in 1973 with 98 and was named the team's Most Valuable Player in both 1974 and 1975. At the linebacker position, Thomas racked up a career total of 369 tackles, which still ranks third in program history. Thomas was drafted in the 11th round of the NFL Draft to the New England Patriots, where he only played three games before deciding to return to his hometown of Michigan City, Indiana, to teach and coach. Thomas died in 2017 at the age of 64. This story originally published June 24.

SOFTBALL
Maggie Allen: Gum-chewing and success By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1
Senior Maggie Allen wasn't paying much attention to the TV in her hotel room. She was sitting in the air conditioned room, relying on her teammates as distractions and trying to keep the thought of that sticky Thursday being her final collegiate race in the back of her head. Jacksonville, Florida was hot and humid on May 23, the first day of NCAA East Preliminary Round. Allen was fresh off a victory in the 10K at the Big Ten Championships with a time of 33:08.59, shattering Iowa’s facility record by one minute and 54 seconds. Allen was set to race the 10K again with the top 12 finishers to qualify for the NCAA Championships. It was Allen against a field of 48 other runners from across half the nation — the other half was competing in the NCAA West Preliminary Round in Sacramento. Allen’s race was slotted to start at 9 p.m. “It’s surprising how fastslash-slow those like 12 hours go by,” Allen said. Unlike most of her teammates, Allen doesn’t play music to get psyched for race day. There’s no motivational tunes she seeks out, no individual rituals and aside from a substantial amount of gum-chewing, Allen likes to stick to IU's warmup routine, including a shakeout run four hours prior to the race. Three of her teammates qualified for NCAAs earlier in the day. Finally the sun set, and it was time for Allen to step foot on the track. Donning a crimson spandex and crimson singlet with candy-stripes faded in at the bottom, Allen laced up her white Adidas spikes. Under the lights in Hodges Stadium at the University of North Florida, she took strides down the track as the PA announcer listed off the race competitors. “And your Big Ten champion, Margaret Allen.” The start line was crowded with the number of runners stacked not only at the start but at the stagger line as well. Allen constantly moved her eyes from straight ahead to down toward the blue asphalt,
then back up. Her potential final race as a Hoosier was looming, but when the starting gun went off, the thought went out of Allen’s head and she just did what she has been doing for a long time — run. * * * Allen wanted to run since kindergarten. She was jealous of her older sister, who was four years older than her and good at running. When she was finally able to get involved with running in third grade, Allen’s experience didn’t live up to what her young mind drew it up to be. “I didn’t like it at all,” Allen said. But her mom kept her in it, and Allen put all her time and effort into running once she realized her 5-foot-4 stature wouldn’t cut it in basketball. Allen struggled with injuries at Sacred Heart Academy in Louisville, Kentucky, which caused her to miss a few cross-country seasons. But when she was healthy, she reaped the rewards of being a two-time state champion in the 800-meter run and 1600-meter run. Her personal best in the 800 was 2:13.68 and mile time was 4:57.93, which ranked her as No. 3 and 5 respectively in Kentucky history. At the KYtrackXC.com 5K Showdown in 2014, Allen dropped a 17:38.63. But when looking for colleges, Allen didn’t want to be close to home. Any university she was looking at was always around five to eight hours away. It wasn’t until her dad filled out an online questionnaire for IU in 2014 because he always wanted his daughter to go to IU. Allen got a call from recruiting coach Andrew Poore and was very confused since she didn’t know her dad filled it out. Poore visited Allen at home and stayed there for three hours. “He left, and I told my parents I want to go visit that school,” Allen said. After her visit, Allen said she knew she wanted to come to IU. Just like that, her plan of a far-away school turned into

just a two-hour trip. * * * Allen's junior year roommate, senior Katherine Receveur, qualified for the cross-country NCAA Championships in 2017. Allen placed 18th in that race and the Hoosiers were on the bubble of making the championships as a team. No matter the team’s future, Allen went to Target with her other roommates, junior Kelsey Harris and senior Haley Harris, to purchase a goodie bag of nail polish and a spa kit to give to Receveur for advancing individually. On the way home, Allen received a notification on her phone: “Indiana girls cross-country makes it to nationals.” Allen told the Harris twins to stop the car, and once they pulled over, she read them the message. The three didn't speak any words but just screamed as loud as they could. Allen called her dad and again, no words, just screams. “Even just thinking about that was so much fun,” Allen said. She said it’s her favorite memory since coming to Bloomington. In high school, Allen was in her own head about her success. She trained too hard, causing her to miss those
cross-country seasons, but since getting to college, she realized she couldn’t control everything. She trusts the training methods of IU Coach Ron Helmer, who has been at the helm for 11 years at IU, and relies on her teammates, just like in the hotel room, to help her get better not just as a runner but as a student. Allen was going through I-Core in the Kelley School of Business during her junior year, and she arrived home one day to find the Harris twins doing the reading assignments for it. “No one does the reading assignments,” Allen said. But seeing her teammates do it made Allen feel like she had to do it. “It was my best semester by far,” she said. Allen isn’t ashamed to admit she can be directionally challenged. She doesn’t have a favorite route to run in Bloomington because everyday is a new one for her. She doesn’t quite know how to explain the team’s trails and turns of its runs. “I think I like Maxwell,” Allen said. “Or no, I think I like the bike path. I don’t know, it could be a different one. You go like that direction and follow Haley Harris until she turns right.” As her career ends, Allen's biggest takeaway is that you can't do it alone. She said she
thinks the relationships she's built with her teammates will last beyond college. Even when Allen is in Chicago for her career post-graduation, working for financial service company FactSet, she knows her best friends aren’t going anywhere. “I’ve become a better person and a better student and a better athlete and a better friend because I’ve been able to become friends with people on my team,” Allen said. Running has been a huge part of her life and she doesn’t plan to stop anytime soon either. Don’t be surprised if you see Allen running along Lake Shore Drive in downtown Chicago. Even if she doesn’t know where she’s going. * * * Allen officially graduated from IU on May 4. She wore a white dress with a crimson sash wrapped around her neck, and the rainy Saturday in Memorial Stadium looked the same to her as it did to any other. It just didn’t feel the same because her time at IU wasn’t over yet. Allen still had work to do. One week after graduating she had to go to Iowa and take the gold medal in the 10K. Thirteen days later, Allen found herself in Jacksonville. Allen started the race in the third row of the pack,

calmly hovering in seventh to eighth place early on. On lap three, Allen got trapped into the middle of the pack and had to bounce to the outside and surge ahead to avoid the clutter. She did the same on lap eight. Fatigue never took form on Allen’s face. Midway through the race, sweat glistened underneath her eyes from the 80-degree weather and 68-degree humidity, but Allen’s strides remained strong. Her arms don’t swing in the fundamental north-south direction, but rather with an east-west orientation, but they stayed level. When an elbow swung back, her blonde hair, slicked back into a ponytail, would bounce in the opposite direction. Even when Notre Dame’s Anna Rohrer and Jacqueline Gaughan quickened the pace with 10 laps to go, Allen’s form never faltered. She didn’t go with the leaders, she stayed in the secondary pack, saving herself for the finish, ensuring her college career wouldn’t come to an end. Six runners were all within three seconds of one another, but with two laps to go, Allen kept her outside tactic in place, avoiding getting trapped along the rail, and surged in front to cross the finish line in fifth place with a time of 33:31.14. “It was really special,” Allen said. Now, Allen is in Austin, Texas, for the NCAA Championships. No matter what, the 10K on Thursday will be Allen’s final collegiate race. She said once she crosses the finish line, that’s when the feeling of graduating and being done will finally hit her. One week before the race, her goal for it was undetermined. She wanted to ask Helmer what the race plan was before setting her mind on any time or place. As she has learned, she can’t control everything. When the gun goes off in Austin, Allen will just do what's made her successful — run. This story originally published June 5.

Three takeaways from IU football's 2019 media day By Jack Grossman
Majette, who caught 21 passes for 97 yards and one touchdown. But running backs Coach Mike Hart thinks the running backs will make a bigger difference in the passing game. He mentioned players like sophomore Stevie Scott, junior Cole Gest and sophomore Ronnie Walker Jr. as examples to kick start that trend. “They can all catch,” Hart said. “Stevie can go out and catch some balls last year and scored a touchdown, Cole is a great third down back and Ronnie can catch." Hart said it puts more stress on the defense and DeBeor does a great job integrating backs running routes in the offense. "The more touches we can get the better," Hart said.

IU football kicked off the 2019 preseason with its annual media day as Head Coach Tom Allen, the assistant coaches and various players all addressed members of the press on Thursday inside Memorial Stadium. Here are three takeaways from the day. 1. Peyton Ramsey is the man to catch behind center Tom Allen said a few weeks ago at Big Ten Media Days in Chicago that redshirt junior Peyton Ramsey will have an edge in the quarterback competition since he started all 12 games in 2018, and the head coach reiterated those sentiments Thursday. “He's a returning starter, and I think there's a lot of merit in that, and he's earned it,” Allen said. “And I think there's a level of — when you put yourself in that position like he has in the past, and he earned a chance to be a starter two years ago and did it last year, as well. So to me, reward him for that.” Because Allen called Ramsey starting last season as an advantage in the 2019 battle twice in the last month, it seems as if

Ramsey is the frontrunner for this season's quarterback position. That is not to say redshirt freshman Michael Penix Jr. or freshman Jack Tuttle have no chance to win the quarterback job. It just means they will likely have to overtake Ramsey in order to start under center. 2. Running backs should
play more of a role in passing game One change new offensive coordinator Kalen DeBoer wants to bring to the Hoosiers in his first year is to involve the running backs more in the passing game. “The running backs I hope are very involved in the receiving game,” DeBoer said. “I just think that those
are some of your best athletes that you have on the football team, not just here but in a lot of programs." IU's running backs did not produce much in the passing game last season, as no Hoosier halfback had over one hundred yards receiving. IU’s leading pass catcher out of the backfield was now-graduated Mike
3. Kane Wommack has full reigns of the defense Kane Wommack is taking over the play-calling duties for Allen this season as defensive coordinator, but Allen discussed Thursday how much he has let Wommack control the defense throughout the offseason. “When we got into spring football, I did not sit in on any of the defensive staff meetings, okay, as they were planning and organizing,” Allen said. “I wanted the defensive coaches to look to
Kane, not look to me if there was a question, and let him answer their questions and let him solve the technique discussions and all the things that happen behind closed doors.” While Wommack is going to call plays and is now leading the Hoosier defense, don’t expect the IU defense to look drastically different than it did when Allen was calling the shots. “Although Coach Wommack has taken over, his attitude of the defense and the things that we need to do won’t change,” cornerbacks Coach Brandon Shelby said. “That’s being aggressive, being smart and going out and competing. So we’re going to cover man-to-man, blitz and play cover two zone, while trying to make it all look the same.” Junior defensive back Raheem Layne also believes the changes have been minimal. “There hasn’t really been many changes,” Layne said. “Coach Wommack’s young, Coach Allen’s young, they’re both pretty similar. Just a different voice, that’s it.” The Hoosiers open fall camp on Friday and will begin the season at Lucas Oil Stadium against Ball State on Aug. 31.

IU football gains preferred walk-on in Christian Harris By Zackary Swoboda zswoboda@iu.edu | @zackaryswoboda
IU football has secured Christian Harris, a wide receiver from the College of DuPage in Illinois, for the 2019 football season. After two years of playing at junior college, Harris
committed to the team, who offered him a spot as a preferred walk-on. “Coming from the juco, I mean, you just have to keep working and working and hope a team takes a chance on you," Harris said to TheHoosier.com. "Indiana was that team that took the
chance on me, and I just can't wait to pay them back for it." Harris’ HUDL profile lists him as 6-foot-3-inches and 180 pounds, adding some height to IU’s roster. In 2017, Harris helped DuPage go 7-3 on the season. The receiver had a productive freshman year playing 10

games and totaling 157 yards, an efficient 15.7 yards per game. Harris scored one touchdown for DuPage in 2017, and he had 13 receptions, with the longest going for a 43-yard gain. Harris improved during his eight games played in his
sophomore year and totaled 164 yards and averaged 20.5 yards each game. Harris will not have to relocate to IU alone, though, as DuPage teammate and fellow wide receiver Bryan Parker is joining IU's roster as well. "There will always be people that don't think you have

Music and Vonnegut come together at Granfalloon By Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @annabelaguiar
Trying to stay dry underneath umbrellas and the hoods of raincoats, concertgoers braved hours of rain Saturday for the “Granfalloon: Outdoor Music Fest” at Upland Brewing Co. It rained throughout the entire concert, which was part of “Granfalloon: A Kurt Vonnegut Convergence.” The festival, which was started last year by the IU Arts and Humanities Council, is a celebration of the life and work of Hoosier author Kurt Vonnegut. The festival is named for the term “granfalloon,” which comes from Vonnegut’s 1963 novel “Cat’s Cradle.” A granfalloon is defined as “a proud and meaningless association of human beings.” Events leading up to Saturday’s concert included a talk with author Dave Eggers at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater on Friday, concerts at the Bluebird Nightclub and the Bishop, dramatic adaptations of Vonnegut’s work presented by Cardinal Stage and more. Vonnegut’s work was present at Saturday’s concert, which had the overarching theme of connection as a banner on the stage included the words “Lonesome no more.” In the Vonnegut novel “Slapstick,” he designs a system of artificial extended families to combat loneliness. Attendees to the Outdoor Music Fest were given buttons assigning them to different families, with names such as Daffodil and Chickadee. Hugging upon discovering familial ties was encouraged. The concert’s opening act was Durand Jones and The Indications, a soul band originally started as a side project among some students at the Jacobs School of Music. The band played on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” back in March, the same month its debut album “American Love Call” was released. “We are Durand Jones and the Indications, and it’s so good to be home, baby,” frontman and lead vocalist

Durand Jones said after the band took the stage. The crowd danced as the band played some of its original songs including the slow and wistful “Is It Any Wonder” and funkier songs such as “Smile.” The group also covered “Apache (Jump On It)" from The Sugarhill Gang, with Jones on the saxophone. During the set, Jones called out Dan Coleman,
founder and president of Spirit of ’68 Promotions. Coleman was the first person to ever book them for a show in 2014, after making the band promise that it wasn't going to mess it up. “And look where we are now,” Jones said. New York City punk rock band Parquet Courts played next, performing songs such as “Total Football” and “Wide Awake.” The crowd

headbanged and jumped around, even as the rain came down harder and harder as
the concert continued. “I don’t know why people don’t know about
Bloomington,” vocalist and guitarist Andrew Savage said. “More tours are going to come through here because of this enthusiasm. We should tell our friends and fellow professional musicians.” “I’m gonna drop a pin, I’m gonna drop a pin right here,” bassist Sean Yeaton said. “Check out this little town Bloomington.” “Come in the summer,” one audience member said. “Avoid the students!” The final act was singersongwriter Neko Case, known for being a part of Canadian indie rock band The New Pornographers and from her own seven solo albums. Jada Bee, who introduced Case, read out loud part of an NPR piece written by Talia Schlanger in July 2018 to describe her voice. “’Neko Case's voice sounds like it originates from the belly of Mother Earth herself. In her music, you can hear the roots of trees, the wisdom of ancient warrior bones, the shift of tectonic plates, molten lava and placid water,’” she read. “What else is there to say?” Case performed in front of an orange light, creating a glowing effect as it surrounded her red hair. She wore a zipped up gray sweatshirt with skeletonprint leggings. She said she was using the sweatshirt to cover up her rock star outfit. “For confidence,” she told the audience. The performance had a strict no recording policy for the audience so its members could enjoy the experience of live music. They swayed and some sang along as Case performed songs such as “Bad Luck” and “Last Lion of Albion.” “Wish I could stand in the spray of the cliff of your sweet revenge,” she sang in the latter. “Ocean of naked serrated marble crushing in.” One of the songs Case performed features an extended scream. All at once, the audience and Case shrieked together into the rainy evening. This story was originally published May 12.

Burlesque performers heat up the Back Door By Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @annabelaguiar
The queen crawled across the floor oh so slowly, a blue feather boa wrapped around her body as she slithered under the gaze of the entire room. She had emerged on the stage to the song “Glory Box� by Portishead, a personal favorite, wearing a floor length gown but had long since left the gown on the stage to reveal not much underneath. Under the colored lights, her blue glitter nipple pasties sparkled. Poison Ivory is a New York City-based burlesque performer and the 2016 Queen of Burlesque, a prestigious title awarded after an annual competition at the Burlesque Hall of Fame. She was one of six performers at “Singe’s Summer Simmer,� a burlesque show Saturday night at the Back Door that included burlesque, boylesque and drag performances. Singe, a Bloomingtonbased burlesque show producer and educator, organized and hosted the show, which was her 20th burlesque production. She started in burlesque in 2011. Singe credited the 2008 documentary “A Wink and a Smile� for a part of her interest in burlesque. When she mentioned the film in a crowded back room before the show, another performer chimed in, “Me, too!� Burlesque started as a parody of musical theater in Victorian England before becoming a vaudeville-competitor striptease in the late 1800s. A modern revival caused the genre to focus less on pleasing a male gaze and more on creativity and performance, the theater and the narrative of the routines themselves. “I’ve seen people do it for fun, and I’ve seen people use it as a growing process after trauma,� Singe said.

Twirlisha Devine peels off one of her gloves during her routine at "Singe's Summer Simmer" on July 20 at the Back Door. Devine also hosts "Showgirl Sunday Dinner", a bi-weekly burlesque podcast.
She also has taught at BurlyCon, a Seattle convention dedicated toward burlesque, for multiple years. That’s where she met Ivory, who
was pregnant and in need of a room to crash. Singe offered and asked if she would ever want to perform at a show in Bloomington. Ivory said yes.
Ivory, who is 36 and used to work in television production, has been touring the country doing shows for the last five years. A friend gave her the stage name “Poison� — her real name is Andrea Ivory. She also saw the documentary that inspired Singe and started taking classes at the New York School of Burlesque for fun. “It felt like I found a new addiction,� she said. Her Bloomington performance was one of her first after giving birth to her daughter Audrey in April. She only stopped performing when she was eight months pregnant, and said she looks forward to showing her in-utero “duet partner� videos of the shows when Audrey grows up. Ivory’s show marks the
first time a Queen of Burlesque has ever performed in Bloomington, Singe said. Most of the other performers were Indiana-based, including Bloomington-based drag performers Mocha DebeautĂŠ, Jaimee Spangle, local burlesque performer and host of the “Showgirl Sunday Dinnerâ€? podcast Twirlisha Devine and Indianapolis resident Juju Bone. Bone, who is 35 and works in food service management, carefully brushed a pink heart onto the tip of her nose as she sat at a desk crammed with items: dry shampoo, makeup, setting spray, an apple, Elmer’s adhesive spray and the heart-shaped pink pasties with tassels she later attached using said adhesive spray. Most of the performers did
two numbers, and Bone’s first one was all bubblegum and bounce. The look was inspired by a 90s themed birthday party she went to. She dressed as a Care Bear and decided to incorporate it into her act. Her second look for the night was leather and fishnets, which she wore for a routine involving an apple moving from her hand to her hair to between her buttcheeks to the mouths of audience members vying for attention, hands outstretched. “I do not subscribe to a look,� she said. “I shoot from the hip. Variety is the spice of life.� The night’s acts ranged from the sultry to the silly. Bloomington-based drag king Jaimee Spangle dangled from chains suspended from the ceiling, spinning in a red glitter harness matching his glitter beard. Bazuka Joe, a Chicagobased boylesque dancer, graced the stage in only a towel. He slowly stripped the towel to reveal a slightly smaller one underneath and continued down the matryoshka route until finally only wearing a small towel over his genitals. For his second act, he strapped a large puppet named Mortimer the Monster to himself and gave a classic burlesque routine complete with feather fans as Mortimer. Singe’s burlesque shows usually have a theme, but this time the performers were told to do whatever they wanted. Part of the appeal of burlesque for the performers is that ability to express whatever they want on stage, be it through strapping yourself to a large monster puppet or crawling on the floor. “You can do anything, feel anything,� Singe said. “You have the ultimate freedom to create.� This article was originally published July 21.
USA International Harp Competition announces winner By Avery Williams avefwill@iu.edu | @Avery_faye
As second place at 11th USA International Harp Competition was announced Saturday night, the only competitor without an award held back tears of joy. French harpist MÊlanie Laurent mouthed, "I'm sorry," to the runner-up before she stood, blushing but composed, to accept first prize. The 11th USA International Harp Competition took place from July 3-13 at the Musical Arts Center. She received a $6,000 cash prize, a trophy, offers to perform around the world and a Lyon and Healy Concert Grand Harp estimated at $55,000. "I am very happy," Lau-
rent said. "I can't find another word, I think I've said 'happy' a thousand times tonight." The 23-year-old has played the harp since she was six. She said she began preparing two and a half years ago. "I organized my life around the competition," Laurent said. Laurent said she quit drinking alcohol or tea so she could stay clear-headed and focused on practicing. Executive director of the USA International Harp Competition Erin Brooker-Miller said the competition is one of the two most prestigious classical harp competitions in the world. "For them, it's like the
Olympics," Brooker-Miller said. The USA International Harp Competition began 30 years ago and takes place every three years, BrookerMiller said. Contestants ages 18-32 can apply. Sixty five people applied to be in this year's competition, and only 40 were invited to the event. Contestants perform in stages, and people are cut at each stage. MÊlanie Laurent, Valerio Lisci and Mathilde Wauters were the top-three finalists. "It's really unique to hear harpists from around the world," Brooker-Miller said. "They are all amazing, we are representing 18 countries." Brooker-Miller said the

week's competition. This was Barker's third time attending the USA International Harp Competition. Barker took harp lessons from IU piano teacher Montana Grinstead for three years as a child, but never truly learned to play. Barker said her childhood love of harp is still with her today. "I didn't want to take my eyes off of the performers," Barker said. "I was just blown away." Laurent said she plans to spend a few weeks with family and friends before going back to the harp. After a well-deserved break, she said she will be ready to play for fun again. This article was originally published July 14.

Angles Café closing at Eskenazi draws scrutiny By Robert Mack rsmack@iu.edu
As the Bloomington community awaits the fall 2019 reopening of the Eskenazi Museum of Art following a twoyear $30 million renovation, one aspect of that renovation has come under scrutiny. The closing of Angles Café and Gift Shop and the removal of its popular manager and buyer Murat Ali Candiler has been met with disapproval. Candiler emailed his friends and loyal patrons of the café in early June to tell them of the change. He wrote that IU Human Resources would try to find another position for him on campus. However, American Studies professor Micol Siegel and other faculty began protesting the decision. Eventually, Seigel wrote a letter to David Brenneman, director of the Eskenazi Museum of Art, urging him to reconsider his decision. The letter and petition were signed by over 200 faculty, staff, and museum patrons. The letter, dated June 10, claims that the café and gift shop space will be downsized by 75%, will switch to selling merchandise and dismiss Candiler from his position. “An ample body of IU faculty, staff and students love the space Murat Ali curated,

the gorgeous collection of objects the store displayed, his wonderful coffee and the cadenced, quiet space the café offered,” the letter reads. “Do we need another dining hall? Is it really important to offer another outlet for IU baseball hats?” Candiler could not be reached for comment. Brenneman said several claims in the letter were inaccurate. While the retail space will be downsized, he said it will still carry gifts such as
posters, postcards and other gifts based on the works of art in the museum’s collection. “There will be wonderful things in the shop, but they will really be focused on our collections,” Brenneman said. “We’re not going to be selling IU baseball caps, striped basketball pants and IU logo T-shirts.” He said the change was based on broader institutional goals to renovate the I. M. Pei-designed museum to prioritize student engagement.
The letter and petition also argues that Candiler provided a unique service to museum customers. “Murat is an incredible asset to Indiana University in this position,” the letter reads. “He is an ambassador of art and culture. Speaking five languages, he found astonishing goods worldwide and could explain their provenance to the casual browser like a global tour guide." Brenneman said that he was very sorry they had to let
Candiler go considering the newly repurposed café. He said that RPS has been tasked to make the new café a special place. Nandini Gupta, associate professor of finance at IU, said Candiler had exceptional taste and that she bought a necklace from him, which she wore on her sabbatical. While visiting a gallery in London, the curator took note of it and asked her where she got it. Her answer was Bloomington, Indiana. “It wasn’t an expensive thing,” Gupta said. “It was just something that Murat picked out from some designer in Brazil, and it was actually made from a recycled espresso cup. It was just clever and funny and beautiful.” Apart from the eclectic array of gifts offered, Seigel said the space was used by members of the IU community as a gathering place. “You could go there, you could hang out and have coffee, lots of graduate students held office hours there, I always met people there, I took visitors to campus there,” Seigel said. “When you think about the loss of a space, you kind of shrug and you think, ‘Oh well, the march of progress is cruel.’ I’m not sure that it’s progress.” Gupta said Angles was a
distinctive place for faculty, students and visitors alike. “It’s a very important space as far as the business faculty are concerned because we are a little further off from the other side of campus not near Kirkwood,” Gupta said. “This offers a good place to take outside speakers and job market candidates.” Brenneman said the museum wants to capitalize on the foot traffic of the thousands of students who travel through the Fine Arts Plaza on their way to classes. In the past, a concrete wall and a parking space had screened the museum from the north-facing terrace and separated the museum from the arboretum. When the museum opens, the café will serve as an entrance to the museum from the arboretum. Brenneman said that the café and gift shop will occupy the same space. “I’m sorry that folks are really upset about it,” Brenneman said. “Hopefully once the museum opens and once we get the space up and running, once people actually come and participate and see what a beautiful social space this will be, maybe they’ll think a bit differently.” This article was originally published June 23.
Take a look inside the ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ Audrey II puppet By Colin Dombrowski ctdombro@iu.edu | @Colin_Thaddeus
Murder, romance and doo-wop. For the past few weeks, the IU Theatre Department has been hard at work performing “Little Shop of Horrors”as part of its IU Summer Theatre programming. But in addition to the usual crew of actors, costumers and lighting technicians, “Little Shop of Horrors” has one addition: one giant puppet. The musical is a dark comedy about an alien plant that’s hungry for blood and quite vocal about it. Throughout the show, the plant moves, sings and opens and closes its mouth. This means that in addition to the usual acting, props and stage direction, each performance requires use of a gigantic puppet brought to life by a puppeteer and voice actor. Rented from Skylight Opera Theatre, the plant, named Audrey II, is quite a spectacle. Throughout the show it takes on four different sizes, with the largest standing at over 8 feet tall. Behind the scenes, Audrey II is actually MFA student Michael Bayler. Cramped inside of a giant puppet for 30 minutes at a time, Bayler barely has space to move, with only 1 or
2 inches of extra space in most directions. He can’t even see when the mouth isn’t open, yet he still manages to perform to the audience exclusively using motion. With the limitations of body language, Bayler must bring the puppet to life by syncing lip movements and swaying to the rhythm. Additionally, when the plant becomes significantly larger than him, he’s forced to use large metal bars to open and close the jaw. To make this happen, Bayler has to memorize dialogue and cues like any actor but additionally has to react to what the voice actor is saying. This becomes more difficult because the puppeteer doesn’t voice Audrey II. Instead, a doctoral student in voice, Jeremy Gussin, makes all the noise. Gussin explained that it’s a little strange seeing Audrey II on stage. “I have to perform physical actions besides my voice, things that aren’t necessarily me, like grunts and growls," Gussin said. "It’s definitely a challenge." Like any show, there are nights where things don’t go according to plan. Gussin is speaking, Bayler is moving, but they don’t necessarily line

up. But depicting Audrey II isn’t a challenge for just the performers. The stage crew takes five to six minutes in the dark to just get Bayler into the plant, in addition to clipping
the pod inside its pot, tying the dressing down to the actor's legs and creating sound effects after the plant eats. Additionally, cast members’ clothes regularly get stuck on the plant, providing an addi-
tional challenge for the costume staff. Despite these challenges, IU Summer Theatre's production of "Little Shop of Horrors" and Bayler and Gussin's performances as Audrey II are to
die for. The cult classic musical is showing through July 28, with shows at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This article was originally published July 24.

POP CULTURE REVIEW
Here's a look at some of the best music, movies and TV of 2019 so far By Joe Schroeder
are hurtling toward a black hole for the sake of science, is bone-chilling and thought provoking. At times existential and at others horrific, the movie is almost perfect. Pattinson’s performance and Denis’ direction give “High Life” a spot in an upcoming science fiction thriller genre resurgence.
and has gained a large following on social media. Lil Nas X also released his debut EP, titled “7” on June 21 to decent critical reception.

The year is more than halfway over, and with fall coming soon, I looked back at the best pop culture and entertainmwent offerings of the year so far, including Hollywood blockbusters, upbeat summer pop hits and moody rap songs.
Megan Thee Stallion If you have seen the “hot girl summer” memes that have been all over Twitter recently, you have Megan Thee Stallion to blame. After becoming the first female to sign with 300 Entertainment in November 2018, the rapper released her debut mixtape “Fever” on May 17, introducing her alter-ego “Hot Girl Meg.” It was also recently announced she made XXL Magazine’s 12th annual Freshman Class.
Lizzo Lizzo started the year by releasing song of the year contender “Juice” only four days into January to promote her third studio album “Cuz I Love You,” which was released April 19. Critically acclaimed, the album put the artist on the map as confident, body positive and everything one wants out of a pop singer. She also headlined Indianapolis and Sacramento pride festivals on June 8 and 9 and played the flute on stage at the 2019 BET Awards while performing her hit song “Truth Hurts.”
YBN Cordae After coming onto the scene with the release of its debut “YBN: The Mixtape” in September 2018, rap group YBN has taken the internet by storm. However, one member of the trio, YBN Cordae, stands out as easily the best rapper. He has only dropped three singles so far in 2019, but “Have Mercy” and his Chance the Rapper collaboration “Bad Idea” shine bright. Along with Megan Thee Stallion, Cordae was also recently selected to XXL Magazine’s 12th Freshman Class. His debut album, “Lost Boy,” is set to release July 26.
Lil Nas X Although “Old Town Road” was technically independently released December 3, 2018, it began charting on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in 2019 and has been atop the list for the last 14 straight weeks. He has remixed the song with artists including Billy Ray Cyrus and Diplo
“Long Shot”

Lizzo sings during Outside Lands Music Festival at Golden Gate Park on Aug. 11, 2018, in San Francisco. She also headlined Indianapolis and Sacramento pride festivals on June 8 and 9 and played the flute on stage at the 2019 BET Awards while performing her hit song “Truth Hurts.”
On a podcast with Vampire Weekend frontman Ezra Koenig, legendary pop singer Elton John recently said “Father of the Bride,” released May 3, is his favorite album of the year. After a six year hiatus from releasing new music, Vampire Weekend crafted the perfect summer album. With amazing features from Steve Lacy and Danielle Haim and pulling inspiration from Paul Simon, George Harrison and Jimmy Buffet, the band was able to put together an upbeat, happy EP with introspective lyrics.
“Homecoming: The Live Album” Everything about this Beyoncé release was amazing. “Homecoming: The Live Album,” released April 17, was unexpected but of high quality, just like many of Beyoncé’s previous releases. The energy of the crowd and drumline is electric. Beyoncé’s new takes on her old tracks are original and producer Tay Keith has one of the most unexpected beats of his career on “Before I Let Go.” “Pony”

This unusual pairing between comedic actor Seth Rogen and the Academy Award-winning Charlize Theron in a romantic comedy was either going to work or flop, and it did not disappoint. The chemistry between Theron, who plays the Secretary of State, and Rogen, her speechwriter, is witty and electric, and the jokes are genuinely hilarious. “Barry” “Saturday Night Live” alum Bill Hader’s passion project “Barry” was the big surprise of last year. The dark comedy about Hader’s character Barry, a hitman that wants to become an actor, had hilarious writing, intense pacing and great action. In its second season in 2019, “Barry” upped the stakes and put a larger focus on the thrills and drama established in its debut season. Gemini (May 21-June 20) Today is an 8 — Discover uncharted distractions along the road. Don't rely on unreliable sources or react blindly. Explore and investigate possibilities without overspending or breaking agreements. Cancer (June 21-July 22) Today is an 8 — Changes necessitate budget revisions. What you want and what's available may not be the same. Give up something you don't need. Make adjustments together. © 2019 By Nancy Black Distributed by Tribune Media Services, INC.
