Coming to college for your freshman year is both exciting and terrifying — or at least, that’s how I felt in the weeks leading up to my freshman year.

Before I drove 16 hours to Bloomington with my dad and all of my belongings, I bingewatched movies about college to try and understand exactly what I was walking into. But nothing could have prepared me for just how much I was going to fall in love with IU and the city of Bloomington. Sometimes I feel like my life didn’t really start until I moved into my dorm room at Forest Quad.

Your first few weeks at IU will be filled with transformative experiences, but all that change can CONTACT US idsnews.com Newsroom 812-855-0760

Herman B Wells at his desk in 1950. Wells served in many roles at IU including president from 1937-1962.

Who was Herman B Wells?

By Abby Malala abbridge@iu.edu | @abbymalala

If you’ve visited IU’s Bloomington campus, you’ve probably seen or heard the name Herman B Wells. Perhaps you’ve visited Herman B Wells Library at the corner of Tenth and Jordan. Maybe you’ve shaken the hand of the statue of Wells located in the Old Crescent, the original part of IU’s campus.

Wells was born on June, 1902 in Jamestown, Indiana. He was named Herman B Wells, his middle name simply being the letter B. This is why there is no period in Wells’ name. It was a tradition in his mother’s family to have names that begin with the letter B, but Wells’ parents couldn’t agree on a name.

After graduating from Lebanon High School in 1920, Wells enrolled in the University of Illinois. In 1921, he returned to Indiana and transferred to IU for his sophomore year.

This is where his legacy begins.

As an IU student, Wells was a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity. The fraternity house still stands at 322 E. Kirkwood Ave, now the home of Soma Coffee House and Juice Bar, Laughing Planet Cafe and other local businesses.

Wells completed both his bachelor’s degree in commerce and his master’s in economics here at IU. He worked as a banker for a short time before becoming an economics professor and eventually the dean of the School of Business Administration, later named the Kelley School of Business.

In 1937, two years after being appointed dean of the business school, Wells was appointed to be president of IU at only 35, making him the youngest state university president to date, and held the position until 1962. During his presidency, Wells oversaw the student body nearly tripling in size and the campus growing to its sprawling 1,700 acres.

Some of Wells’ greatest achievements include overseeing the construction of the Fine Arts Plaza and other arts buildings.

He was a champion of the arts and contracted I. M. Pei to design the Sidney & Lois Eskenazi Museum of Art and acquired murals by the artist Thomas Hart Benton to be incorporated into the IU Auditorium.

Wells also believed in equality in education and worked to end racial segregation at the university. He aided in maintaining academic freedom as well, particularly regarding the work of IU professor Alfred Kinsey, whose research in human sexual behavior was highly controversial in the 1930s and 40s.

Upon his resignation from the presidency in 1962, the IU Board of Trustees created the position of university chancellor for Wells. He was chancellor until his death in 2000, but his legacy has endured well beyond his years of service to the university.

An out-of-state student’s guide to Indiana The quirks of Indiana life can be a little jarring for nonnative Hoosiers. Here’s a look at some of the details.

GRAPHIC BY ANNIE AGUIAR

By Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @annabelaguiar

Every year, the incoming freshman class at IU ranges from Bloomington locals — called “townies” — to those who have no idea about any of the nuances of Indiana life.

Students come to IU from all 50 states and countries abroad, and the transition can be a little jarring.

I should know. I moved to Bloomington from Tampa, Florida in 2017.

I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I moved to Bloomington for college in August 2017.

For out-of-state students — especially for those from farther away, like my Floridian self — some of the details of Indiana life require a little introduction.

Hoosiers Even though I’ve been a Hoosier for going on two years now, I’m still not entirely sure what it is. The term is the official demonym for residents of the state, the Indiana equivalent of “Californian” or “Texan.”

There isn’t a clear consensus on the term’s origin but was recognized by the federal government as the official name for Indiana residents in January 2017.

“A Hoosier is not a mascot,” the university’s website reads. “It’s not an animal, a bird or a mythical creature, either.

A Hoosier is a proud member of the IU family.”

Basketball When I first came to IU, I was confused by how big of a deal everyone seemed to be making about basketball. Basketball was

just the sport the football players went to once their season ended at my high school, nowhere near the lynchpin of athletic culture it is here.

For the uninitiated, basketball at IU is a near-religious experience for some. Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall fills for games, and graduating players such as Juwan Morgan and Tyra Buss have been beloved by fans for years. It’s a big deal, and attending a game is an absolute must during your time here.

“The Region” There’s bound to be one on every dorm floor. When asked where he or she is from, the response is simply “the Region.” Literally every location is within a region, which just means an area, so for out-of-staters this identification can be confusing.

The Region is another name for Northwest

Indiana and the towns and cities radiating outward from the Chicago metropolitan area in Lake, Porter and LaPorte counties.

Those from the area call themselves Region Rats and celebrate 219 day — the local area code — on Feb. 19 in honor of the Region.

Weather Indiana weather is fickle, to say the least.

Certain stretches of time between winter and spring will have such ups and downs that one day’s outfit will be jeans and a T-shirt and the next day’s will be layers and layers of jackets to try and keep warm.

It can get cold in Indiana, and those from warmer states might have a rough first winter in Bloomington adjusting to the difference. I know I did.

Be sure to bring a winter jacket, and make sure it’s a warm one.

How to transform your new dorm room into

By Austin Faulds

A LIVING SPACE

afaulds@iu.edu | @AAFaulds19

After you unpack all the boxes, hang all the clothes and cram all those books you promised yourself you would read but never actually will in a lockbox under your bed, you may think you are officially done moving into your new dorm room.

While it’s important to have the essentials, it’s equally important to make the space your own personal living quarters. After all, even if you decide to only use your room for sleep, it should be thought of as more than just a bed. It should be seen as a concrete expression of your identity. Here are some tips on how to transform your dorm room into something that is your own.

Find your aesthetic This is probably the hardest step of all and definitely the most liable to change over time. Your aesthetic right now may be different in a year or two, but it is important to think about this in order to make your living space the most comfortable.

What are you passionate about? What are your hobbies? When you close your eyes, what do you see? Maybe it’s fashion, and you see your own brand of Met Gala look. Maybe it’s outdoor recreation, and you see a miniature Dick’s Sporting Goods. Maybe it’s punk music, and you see something that looks like it would fit perfectly as your next jean jacket patch.

Most importantly, remember this is your space.

Don’t succumb to peer pressure by what your friends or floormates or roommates are doing with their parts of the room. Allow your space to be an expression of your identity, whatever it may be.

Pinterest is your friend Pinterest is the millennial guidebook for design.

When you want to decorate something, this is the place you go.

You could type “Dorm Decorating Ideas” and probably get hundreds of thousands of possible pins to browse, but beyond that, you can get as narrowfocused as you like and still probably find some great ideas. Everything from sticky notes featuring all your favorite TV show quotes to hanging up colored lights attached with photos of you and your friends can be found on Pinterest.

Welcome home Looking good! Yes, this space is so you. Much better than that emotionless concrete cell you were living in before. This is a space that screams you. Now go out, make friends and share this work of art with them.

Everyone has their own interior decoration aesthetic. Finding your own can make your dorm room more inviting.

IU freshmen react to end of ďŹ rst semester of my major.

By Ellen Hine

emhine@iu.edu | @ellenmhine

The first semester of freshman year can be transformational. For many, it’s the first time they experience real independence.

At the end of the fall 2018 semester, we decided to talk with freshmen and ask them to reflect on their first semester at IU.

time I had.

Are you excited about your classes next semester?

I think so, yeah. I’m definitely excited.

Some of them, I’m nervous for, but other than that, I’m kind of excited to go the route

VARSITY PROPERTIES

Jennie Balsano is a media major with a concentration in advertising. She had just finished speaking to her group members about their final project for her class on gender in the media.

How has your first semester been?

Balsano: It’s been good. I definitely expected that I would be really stressed compared to my high school load, but it’s definitely different in retrospect to your mental health and like how you take care of it. I’ve really had to pay attention to that.

What’s the biggest difference between high school and college?

Probably just learning to manage, you know, when I should do all my assignments and how I should kind of expect assignments to go and how to be graded. That’s kind of hard because everyone is so different, every professor is so different, every AI is so different in grading. So you just kind of have to judge in your classes what you should pay attention for, especially in tests.

Jasmine Vann is majoring in music education and Spanish linguistics. She was taking a quick study break.

How has your first semester been?

Vann: My first semester has been amazing. I really love it here, and I’m so glad I decided to go here. My classes have been pretty engaging and challenging. I’ve enjoyed meeting so many people.

What’s the biggest difference between high school and college?

Definitely the whole living on my own thing. I can set my own schedule. I can go wherever I want, do whatever I want. And I also have to be very responsible for myself because I'm on my own.

Was there anything that surprised you about college?

Probably how many things have just kind of fallen into place for me. I didn’t expect them to go as smoothly as they did, but I’ve been very lucky this semester.

How so?

I got a house with some friends for next year all lined up. All of my assignments have been pretty good, my school work has been pretty good. I’ve still been able to balance everything, and I kind of thought I would struggle a little bit more than I did, which I’m very happy about.

IU landmarks and where they come from

By Robert Mack rsmack@iu.edu

Showalter Fountain by Robert Laurent “The Birth of Venus,” designed by IU fine arts professor Robert Laurent, depicts the Roman goddess Venus rising from the waves on a shell surrounded by five fish (or dolphins), “an allegory for the pursuit of truth and beauty,” according to an Indiana Daily Student article from May 17, 1961. Its origins begin in the 1950s, when then-IU President Herman B Wells first commissioned it and traveled to Italy where the bronze was cast in 1958.

While the design was met with criticism by some students for its lack of “modesty” and because the eye-browed fish are “ugly,” it soon became a popular hangout and part of campus culture. Tradition has it that graduating seniors jump into the fountain every May. The statue has also been at the center of numerous pranks and vandalism.

All five fish disappeared when IU won the NCAA basketball championship in 1987, according to a report by the Indianapolis News.

They were soon recovered, according to an IDS report. A fish had also been taken when IU won the NCAA championship in 1976.

Pranksters have made the fish spout green-

dyed water and have bestowed Venus with a hat or a bikini. Every few years someone attempts to steal one of the fish or rams their vehicle into the statue.

Herman B Wells statue by Harold Langland This statue, dedicated shortly after Wells’ death in 2000, serves as a reminder of IU’s connection to one of its most revered figures.

According to Robert Le Bien, chair of the committee who oversaw the sculpture, the statue is meant to convey Wells’ open, “physical presence” on campus.

Approved by the Board of Trustees in 1998 and sculpted by IU-South Bend professor Harold “Tuck” Langland, who also created the Ernie Pyle statue by Franklin Hall, the statue portrays Wells sitting on a park bench, his jacket unbuttoned, his tie casually blown out of place by the wind and his hand outstretched.

It is a favorite tradition among Hoosier students to sit by Wells and shake his hand.

In the dedication program, Le Bien wrote that Langland portrays Wells as “relaxed but engaged, not lost in contemplation.”

“The sculpture portrays Wells not as bigger than life but as part of life. It shows Dr. Wells as we all knew him — as one of us.”

Sample Gates The Sample Gates have become one of the most recognizable spots on campus. Despite matching the look of the oldest part of campus where it resides, the gates’ long road to construction finished only 30 years ago.

“It was only put up in the 1980s, which always surprises a lot of people, myself included,” said Carrie Schwier, an outreach and public service archivist at the IU Archives who co-authored the recent book, “Indiana University Bloomington: America’s Legacy Campus.”

“That architectural style fits so seamlessly into that section of campus that you think it’s been there for 100 years.”

The origins of a Sample Gates go back to the late 1890s when the graduating classes of 1899-1902 contributed to an “Arch Fund.”

In 1967, the firm Eggers & Higgins submitted the design familiar to us today, a gateway made of Indiana limestone that blends with the surrounding buildings, Schwier said.

It was not until the 1980s, when a gift from IU’s Director of Scholarships and Financial Aid, Edson Sample, provided the funds in honor of his parents that the construction finally took place on what we now call the Sample Gates.

The Space Between: Adam and Eve by Jean-Paul Darriau The Space Between by internationally recognized IU art professor Jean-Paul Darriau (1929-2006) is a bronze sculpture of nude Adam and Eve reaching out to each other resting on the eastern edge on Dunn’s Woods across from Kirkwood Hall.

Completed in 1968, legend has it that Darriau used his own children as models, according to “Indiana University Bloomington: America’s Legacy Campus.”

Sherry Rouse, IU art curator, said Darriau wanted viewers to see them separately rather than together. The statues represent the differences between men and women, but show how they’re drawn together by love.

Rouse also said the statues’ nudity was a source of controversy. At one point, someone even sawed off the penis, making Darriau craft a new one. As a joke, for decades now, IU students have dressed up Adam and Eve in the latest styles.

Indiana Arc by Charles Perry The giant, red 21-foot Indiana Arc, situated by the Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Museum of Art, was dedicated in 1995.

LEFT The Indiana Arc was dedicated in 1995.

MIDDLE The Space Between was completed in 1968 by IU art professor Jean-Paul Darriau.

RIGHT The sculpture of the goddess Venus at the Showalter Fountain is surrounded by autumn colors.

It was commissioned to stand aside architect I.M. Pei’s art museum and to honor the presidency of Thomas Ehrlich, according to “Indiana University Bloomington: America’s Legacy Campus.”

Perry, whose work can be seen around the world including Singapore, Australia, Saudi Arabia and the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., got the job.

These are just a few of IU’s statues and their history. Schwier noted that many of the campus art work is homegrown, designed and sculpted by IU faculty.

“We have an amazing art department here,” Schwier said.

She said that public art is an integral part of the campus.

“I think it is intended to make the campus more appealing to those of us who inhabit

it. It’s more homelike,” Schwier said. “I know there’s lots of educational theory out there about if where you are occupying is beautiful, it inspires creativity in your own work, in your research, and productivity, and that kind of thing.”

Ernie Pyle by Harold Langland Harold “Tuck” Langland’s statue outside Franklin Hall of IU alumnus and noted World War II journalist Ernie Pyle was commissioned in 2013 for the inauguration of the Media School. It was dedicated the following year on homecoming weekend.

Langland, an IU-South Bend professor, portrayed a bronze, life-sized Pyle at his typewriter wearing a bomber jacket, helmet and goggles.

ington: America’s Legacy Campus,” the statue is meant to “convey how Pyle worked alongside foot soldiers at the front during WW2.”

Just before finishing his degree, Pyle went to pursue a career in journalism, eventually becoming a war correspondent. He won a Pulitzer Prize for his first-person stories about infantry soldiers on World War II battlefields. He died when he was hit by machine gun fire during the Battle of Okinawa in Japan.

Campus through the seasons IU is known for its lush scenery and limestone architecture.

It’s ranked among the most beautiful college campuses in the country. Here’s a sneak peek at the seasons to come from the Arbutus yearbook.

FALL Then-Senior Wanda Krieger and her friend Rachel Baszynski walk down Seventh Street in 2014. Baszynki was visiting Krieger from out of town. Autumn months are marked by cooler temperatures and colorful foliage.

WINTER Students walk through the first heavy snow of the season in 2014. Average high temperatures during the winter months are in the upper 30s and lows are in the 20s, but they go lower and higher. It’s important to wear hats, gloves and layers of clothes for long walks through campus.

SPRING Tulips bloom around the Sample Gates at the entrance of campus in 2013. They are a colorful sight every spring. At the beginning of May, new graduates are often seen getting their photos taken around the red and white flowers. Landscape Services maintains displays of flowers throughout the campus. During March, April and May, high temperatures can range from the 50s to the 70s.

SUMMER Then-graduate student Kelly Kobiela reads in the IU Arboretum in 2009. The scenic space, located on 10th Street next to the Herman B Wells Library, is a popular spot to relax. Summer months in Bloomington can be hot and humid with average highs in the 80s.

Dunn Meadow: A special gathering place

IDS FILE PHOTO

In 1962, the IU Board of Trustees designated Dunn Meadow as a space on campus for spontaneous free speech. Through the years, it’s become a gathering place for students.

Different groups have used the meadow, each expressing its own wishes and remembrances in a single, historical space.

In the past, Dunn Meadow has been used as a concert venue, the site of various festivals, a place where memorials and vigils occurred and the location of protests by students and Bloomington residents.

CULTURE SHOCK Junior Amanda Martinez paints on WIUX’s canvas during WIUX’s 2017 Culture Shock Music Festival in Dunn Meadow. The event featured artists such as Noname, SALES and Post Animal.

What we wish we had known before college IDS staffers are students at IU in addition to being journalists. Here’s what we wish we had known before college.

Claire Peters, news reporter

Evan Carnes, opinion editor

I wish I knew how much change was going to happen within the first two semesters. This might vary from person to person, but I kind of assumed that I would stay the same in most respects. Living on my own for the first time and having a lot more independence changed me a lot, mostly for the better! It at least made me drink a lot more black coffee.

Assuming that not much would change made it a little difficult to go with the flow throughout the semester, so knowing that beforehand would have been nice.

When I came to IU, I wish I would have known more about myself. I found myself facing frequent challenges of my values, relationships and honest moral truths. When I first arrived, I was in one of the most dangerous moments of my life. I wasn’t taking care of my mental health or those around me.

This harmful state of mind plus trying to understand who you want to “be” is a burden no one deserves. I wish I knew that I would be all right and that I would overcome much of my inner turmoil to become proud and excited about the person I am.

Abby Malala, arts editor

Emily Isaacman, news editor

There’s so much I wish I had known before I came to college. How to manage my time, how long food will last in a minifridge and why it’s a bad idea to party the night before an 8 a.m. exam — I wound up sprinting across campus with a hangover only to be an hour late. But the most important thing I’ve learned in college has nothing to do with everyday stressors like time management or overestimating my alcohol tolerance.

I wish I had known how to let go of the stress and just enjoy being young and having my whole life ahead of me.

I wish I knew it’s OK to not have everything figured out at the start of college. We put so much pressure on ourselves to decide on a career path before we start classes. Most of the time, this is so we can have an answer to give to curious family members and nosy strangers. My answer to these questions now is incredibly different than it was two years ago. I changed my major from contemporary dance to journalism and in doing so, changed my life. I wish I didn’t put so much pressure on myself to have all the answers because the point of college is to learn.

Ellen Hine, copy chief

Annie Aguiar, Editor-in-chief

I wish I had known when I came to IU just how easy it is to get involved with a group or club. During my freshman year, I really didn’t join any organizations because I felt intimidated about meeting new people. I ended up missing out on a lot of fun stuff as a result.

I started working at the Indiana Daily Student during my sophomore year and realized what I had been missing. Everyone was warm and welcoming, and I’ve made some incredible friendships in my short time here.

I regret I didn’t get involved sooner, but I’m so happy I’m here.

I wish I knew how much there was to do in Bloomington outside of IU’s campus.

During my first year at IU, I never really strayed too far from the university itself. I went to class and to the IDS but never really explored anything — I rarely ate at a different dining hall than the one attached to my dorm. Side note: I still love you, Woodland Restaurants at Forest.

From the restaurant scene to beautiful hiking trails in Monroe County, some of my best times at IU have been off-campus. Be sure to go out and see the sights.

IU is home to rich

CAMPUS TRADITIONS for all students to enjoy From Homecoming to the Color Run, these activities are notable IU traditions.

By Olivia Elston oelston@indiana.edu

IU offers much for students but also has a wide range of traditions that make IU the campus it is. An important tradition for students in their educational endeavors is shaking the hand of the statue of Herman B Wells. Wells was a former IU president, so students seek out his statue before each semester for good luck in their courses.

From basketball to football, IU takes sports seriously. If you're a sports fan, one trip to Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall makes the traditions list. Hoosier Hysteria is a tradition in

Bloomington to introduce the new basketball teams in a day full of fun and basketball including dunk and three-point contests.

Every fall, IU Dance Marathon raises millions of dollars for Riley Children’s Hospital.

The event takes place over an entire weekend when students dance for 36 hours straight for those who can’t.

Every spring, IU is home to the Little 500, two bike races including a men’s and women’s race. Little 500 weekend has been called “the greatest college weekend,” and it lives up to the hype.

Hoosier spirit and pride are a main tradi-

tion at IU. The fight song is sung at about any IU function from ceremonies to sporting events.

Knowing the fight song and the movements that go with it are musts. When the final “IU” is shouted, Hoosiers put up their hands in fists to represent an “I” and then bring them down to shoulder height and make blades for the “U.” And finally, the candy stripes. IU is known for the iconic candy stripe basketball pants, but now, it has turned into all IU gear.

The striped cream and crimson design has become a fashion statement by Hoosiers and allows them to show their stripes.

How to have fun in downtown Bloomington Austin Faulds afaulds@iu.edu | @AAFaulds19

When living in a college townlike Bloomington, it’s arguably just as important to experience what’s off-campus as what’s on-campus.

Here are some of the many activities you can partake in once you cross the Sample Gates.

Food While there is a multitude of restaurants in the downtown Bloomington area, the restaurants on Fourth Street are some of the city's most beloved.

Here you will find several establishments with cuisine hailing from Turkey, China, Myanmar, the Mediterranean, India, Korea, Japan, Thailand, Tibet and many more.

That diversity isn’t just limited to Fourth Street. Other restaurants such as Chow Bar, Dats, Samira and Amrit India also offer international dishes. Other dining options include Bloomington Sandwich Company, Village Deli, The Owlery, Runcible Spoon and BuffaLouie’s around Kirkwood Avenue and in the town square.

Coffee As a college student, it’s inevitable that you’ll need some form of caffeine since you’ll be staying up late either laboring through projects or studying.

There is nowhere near a shortage of coffee downtown. A popular go-to is the Starbucks located conveniently across from Sample Gates, but local coffee shops also get a great deal of business.

The Soma Coffee House and Juice Bar is located across the street from the Monroe County Public Library. Pourhouse Cafe is also located nearby.

Just a few minutes past the courthouse is a small pink building, which is the authentically French café La Vie En Rose. La Vie En Rose offers not only fresh coffee, but fresh French food. More of a tea person? Cup and Kettle on Walnut Street offers a variety of different flavors and types of tea.

separate back room. Musicians from across the country come here regularly to perform music across all genres. It’s common to see music performances in local coffee shops and record stores, as well as on the street.

Comedy The Comedy Attic on Walnut Street is getting more popular each year both in the Midwest and beyond. John Mulaney, Amy Schumer, Hari Kondabolu, Maria Bamford, Marc Maron, Tiffany Haddish, Hannibal Burress and Tig Notaro are notable past performers.

One thing to note before going: on top of your ticket sale price, it is required to buy at least two food or drink items while at the club.

For those aspiring to be comedians, the Comedy Attic does open mic every Wednesday at 8 p.m. Not a bad gig to use the same stage as many celebrities once have.

Your college experience, especially at IU, is far more than what you will learn in the classroom or see on campus. Go out and explore every opportunity this city has to offer.

Your guide on where to study on campus

By Claire Peters clapete@iu.edu | @claire_peterss

In college you will be doing a lot of studying, so it is important to find places that help you concentrate and get the work done. Finding productive environments in college is important to academic success.

While some people find it helpful to be in a busy environment and have lots of background noise, others can only focus in silence.

Many students opt to study in their dorm rooms, but oftentimes it becomes very difficult to focus there surrounded by distractions. This is why it is important to have a few great study spots around campus in mind.

If you like private, quiet spaces…

Whether it’s a huge place like Herman B Wells Library or the smaller Residential Programming and Services libraries located in the residence halls, there are many options for students who want to study in libraries.

Wells offers many different types of study environments such as a commons with work tables, a quiet floor and individual rooms that can be booked ahead of time.

But unfortunately it is often crowded, especially around finals and midterms, so using smaller libraries can be easier and more convenient.

Each residence hall has a small RPS library, but oftentimes they go unnoticed because they’re tucked away. They are open from 5 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. every day, so they are great places to go if you need to get some work done late at night without having to leave the residence hall. Plus they have a large selection of movies, board and video gamesand books if you need to take a study break.

If students are looking for a place with more privacy or room to spread out, most specific department buildings on campus have their own libraries with vast amounts of resources and study spots, so there is no shortage of places to work.

PHOTOS BY ALEX DERYN AND MALLORY SMITH

TOP Students study at tables in front of Starbucks in the Indiana Memorial Union.

LEFT Students use the tables and computers in Wells Library. The library often becomes very crowded the week before finals.

If you like being out in nature…

If you like busy environments…

If being in a busy environment helps boost productivity, there are spaces around campus where that is an option. Whether it is the lobby of an academic building or a dining hall, there are many locations to choose from.

Two of the most popular places on campus are the Starbucks and South Lounge in

the Indiana Memorial Union, where there is a constant flow of students and faculty passing through to get coffee or head to meetings.

The Global and International Studies

building has a brightly lit study space surrounded by windows. This can be useful whether students need to work with a group or focus on their own work.

During the spring when the weather gets warmer, places like the Arboretum and Dunn Meadow are populated with students sitting on blankets or in hammocks getting their work done.

If students are looking to buy hammocks or other outdoor gear for their studying needs, they can visit the Indiana University Outdoor Adventures store in Eigenmann Hall. It is open on from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

There is additional outdoor seating with chairs and tables in multiple places around campus, such as outside Wells Library, the upper deck of Goodbody Hall and outside of Union Street Center.

Whether you’re cramming for an exam or diligently working ahead, having a comfortable space to work can make all the difference.

Little 500: The world’s greatest college weekend

By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1

After the women’s and men’s Little 500 races concluded April 12 and 13, it marked races 100 and 101 in Little 500 history.

There have been 69 men’s races, starting in 1951, and 32 women’s race since 1988, making the Little 500 a tradition like no other at IU. Each year, the bike spectacle brings in around 25,000 people to the Bloomington community to be a part of the historic race.

The race was founded by Howdy Wilcox Jr., who was the executive director of the IU Foundation in 1951. Wilcox modeled the race after the Indianapolis 500, which his father won in 1919. The winner of the first men’s Little 500 in 1951 was the South Hall Buccaneers, who represented the Collins LLC. The women used to compete in a tricycle race the night before the men’s Little 500 until a group of four women from Kappa Alpha Theta attempted to qualify for the men’s race in 1987. They were one spot short of qualifying, and instead of trying again the following year, they opted to pursue starting a women’s race, which took place the next year on April 22, 1988. The winner of the inaugural women’s race was Willkie Sprint.

The size of the field for the Little 500 is maxed out at 33 teams, and each team can have up to four members compete in the race. The men race 200 laps, which is 50 miles, and the women race 100 laps, or 25 miles. Money the event makes goes toward scholarships for the students competing.

The fastest men’s time recorded in history was in 1986 when the Cutters finished in 2:01.4. The fastest women’s time was in 1989 when Beyond Control finished with a time of 1:06.58.

In the months leading up to the event, there is a chain of competitions called the Spring Series, which consists of Individual Times Trials, Team Pursuit, Miss N Out and Qualifications. All four of these events are preludes to the race itself and give riders the opportunity to get a feel for the competition and get seeded for the actual race.

Before each race, members of the IU Student Foundation are announced, and special guests ride around in pace cars. Each team and rider get announced as they walk a lap around the track at Bill Armstrong Stadium. The national anthem begins, and someone parachutes their way to the center of the infield from a plane with an American

the races still delivered. Teter squeezed out an exciting victory in the women’s race, and the Cutters followed suit the next day.

It’s a tradition that all IU students will celebrate in one way or the aother.

Sports to watch during the 2019-20 season The most recent year saw IU defeat University of Texas in the first round and compete at a high level with the University of Oregon, a Final Four team, in the second round.

The Hoosiers are only graduating two seniors and returning a majority of their players that made up most the team’s points this season.

Mix that in with a highly-rated recruiting class, and IU could potentially make a deeper run into the postseason than it ever has before.

By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1

Softball The IU softball team is on the rise with Coach Shonda Stanton at the helm. This upcoming year will be Stanton’s third, and her team will be riding a wave of momentum.

The Hoosiers’ season concluded in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten Tournament in May, which left them as one of the first four teams out of the NCAA Tournament.

Despite the disappointment of not making the Tournament, the team’s 3621 record got it closer than it has been in a number of years, as it hasn’t made the Tournament since 2011.

IU started the season 14-0 and was ranked in the top 25 early in the season.

The Hoosiers are only graduating three seniors, which makes for a more experienced and talented team to return to the field in 2020.

Help wanted Students discussed their past, present and future employment goals in the 2019 Arbutus yearbook Photo Story by Katie Franke and Matthieu Picard

ASHOK PATEL Graduate Student | Information Systems Q: What will you look for when you apply to your future jobs?

A: In a future job, priority-wise, my preferences will be the type of work, because I want to do computer science and information systems. Apart from that, for me, the brand name matters and then location. It would be great if I could go to the Bay Area.

Q: Could you describe your application process?

A: Kelley has companies coming around and offering interviews, so I took one of those, and I’m looking off campus as well. I have filled out a couple of applications. Sometimes I might get in touch with a current employee and see if they can refer me for a specific position, but otherwise you apply online and wait for an interview. Kelley School of Business’ career center has been training us over the summer. They’ve been giving us tips and tricks.

ZARRIA CHAPMAN Freshman | Human Biology Q: Where do you currently work, and why did you choose to work there?

A: I work at the School of Education for a program called Balfour. I have student work-study, so it takes some money off my tuition.

Q: What are your favorite and least favorite parts of your job?

A: My least favorite part of my job is that it’s right before my classes, and my favorite part is getting to interact with younger students to get them inspired about college.

Q: How long do you plan on working there?

A: Probably just for the rest of this year. I’m not sure if I’ll be working there after this year.

TU-CHIA TING Sophomore | Information Systems Q: Where were you employed over the summer, and why did you chose to work there?

A: Last summer, I worked in Shanghai. As an intern my role was to recruit companies to pay for spaces in the building.

Q: What were your favorite and least favorite parts of your job?

A: My favorite part of the job was being in the real world instead of reading the materials out of the book. Because I’m most interested in education, even though I’m in the business school, that business was a combination of education and business, so I liked getting a taste of both.

My least favorite part was sitting in an office all the time.

Q: Do you see yourself working there in the future?

A: I look forward to working there again, since the building opens at the end of this year, so they’ll be operating the new system.

New school, new opportunities: joining student groups

By Zackary Swoboda zswoboda@iu.edu | @zackaryswoboda

Now that you’re at IU, you may be wondering what you can get involved in. There is an abundance of student groups to join at IU, as well as a lot of different ways to find out more informationabout them.

IU has nearly 800 student groups you can join. All you need to decide are which ones are a perfect fit.

No matter your interests, it’s likely you’ll find a student group on campus that suits you.

If not, you have the opportunity to create your own group.

The details for starting your own group can be found online on IU’s Division of Student Affairs website under “Student Organizations.�

The annual student involvement fair in Dunn Meadow is the perfect place to find a new organization. At the fair, you have the chance to check out and get more information about IU’s clubs and student groups in person.

There are also opportunities online that can give you vital information to join student groups.

On IU’s beINvolved site, you can search and filter through different student groups based upon your interests.

Greek life is another way to get involved during your time at IU. Fraternity rush happens both in the fall and spring semesters, and sorority recruitment happens in the spring.

The IU Interfraternity Council, or IFC, releases schedules for fraternity recruitment, and the IU Panhellenic Association, or PHA, releases schedules for sorority recruitment.

Another way IU student groups advertise is by posting bulletins in different residence halls, education buildings and dining halls.

Sidewalk chalk is another common way groups advertise their meetings.

Although IU’s size can be intimidating, finding the right student group for you can make it easier to get accustomed to your new school.

IU’s graduate programs in Speech & Hearing Sciences are ranked #12 and #13 in the US — most of these same outstanding graduate faculty teach our undergraduates.

Most of our graduates go on to graduate programs for training in speech-language pathology (2-yr Master’s degree) or audiology (3-yr or 4-yr Professional Doctorate, AuD).

Our major is interdisciplinary with considerable coursework in psychology, development, anatomy & physiology, linguistics, and acoustics.

Indiana Men’s Basketball @indianambb There is perhaps no better team Instagram account in the country, with IU posting photos and graphics explaining the game and current season.

DID YOU KNOW? The US Department of Labor (2017) reports that…

• The median annual salary for speech therapists is $77,510 and job growth is projected at 18% from 2016-2026 (“faster than average”).

• The median annual salary for audiologists is $75,920 and job growth is projected at 21% from 2016-2026 (“much faster than average”).

• Clearly, an SPHS major offers the opportunity to “do well” for the foreseeable future.

Speech-language pathologists and audiologists diagnose and treat communication disorders in people ranging from newborns to older adults — our majors have the chance to enjoy a life-long fulfilling career in which they also “do good” by helping their fellow human beings.

To start your journey, register this fall for SPHS S-106 or SPHS S-108

Words of Wisdom A few leaders from across campus offer advice on how to prepare for your first year at IU.

Lillian CasillasOrigel, Director, La Casa/Latino Cultural Center

“Students must be their own strongest advocates and take an active role is seeking support or help immediately when things become challenging.”

Director, LGBTQ+ Culture Center

Dave O’Guinn, Vice Provost for Student Affairs and Dean of Students

“Starting your IU experience?

Promise yourself that you’ll not just eat at one of Bloomington’s great ‘ethnic’ restaurants, but that you’ll get to know some international students as friends; that you’ll not just read about the research of Alfred Kinsey, but that you’ll hang out with some students who identify themselves as ‘gender fluid, gay or queer,’ that you’ll not just spend time with friends from high school, but that you’ll drop by the First Nations Cultural Center or La Casa or the Black Culture Center and participate in the programs they have to offer.

Promise yourself that you’ll open your mind to new experiences and I promise you that your days at IU will be rich and rewarding in so many ways.”

“Get involved. In fact, you are more likely to graduate in four years if you make connections with peers and mentors within your first semester on campus.

I encourage you to attend the Student Involvement Fair on Monday, August 20 from 3 to 7 p.m. in Dunn Meadow, and to use the beINvolved online system to find an organization and track all your campus involvements.

If you are ever struggling to find your place on campus, reach out to me and the Division of Student Affairs staff.

My team and I are always here to help.”

“To all incoming students, congratulations and welcome! I’m so thrilled you chose Indiana University for this next stage in your journey and I look forward to your renewing presence on campus this fall.

As you begin to acquaint yourselves with Bloomington, I hope you’ll enjoy the promising experiences and budding relationships in front of you.

I encourage you to take full advantage of all IU has to offer. Enjoy the campus.

Get involved. Participate in the array of opportunities happening throughout the year.

Above all, know you are supported and encouraged to broaden your horizons and do your best work.”

“Don’t assume that just because someone is not at all like you in beliefs, experiences or culture, that you can’t be friends. Find that exact person and be friends.”

Isabel Mishkin, President, Indiana University Student Government “Be proactive and seek opportunity inside and outside of the classroom.

Use your first year to explore and keep an open mind; you won’t know what you’re passionate about until you try it.”

Melanie CastilloCullather, Director, IU Asian Culture Center “Transitions in life can be exciting and challenging at the same time. My advice to freshmen is to keep things cool and easy.

Remember there are many opportunities in front of you and this is a good time to explore them. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes.

Get to know the people whose academic work you admire and learn from, be involved in one or two organizations whose missions align with your values, and most of all, enjoy meeting new friends.

If you ever feel alone or need someone to talk to, you are always welcome to come and hang out with us at the Asian Culture Center.”

Rabbi Sue Silberberg, Executive Director, Helene G. Simon Hillel Center “You are on the brink of an exciting, new beginning at an excellent and caring University. As you prepare to open the doors to a new chapter of your life, you have a wonderful opportunity to shape your future and change the world.

You will be challenged and have the privilege of building a community, learning from your professors and textbooks in the classroom, but more importantly, learning outside the classroom from your friends, from the celebrations and happiness that you find and, also, from the challenges that you will inevitably face and overcome.

As you build your future over the next four years, may you integrate into your life the values of social responsibility, caring, and compassion. May you strive to do good every day and to make our campus and our community an even better place.”

Music, theater, film and more: The arts on campus

By Austin Faulds afaulds@iu.edu | @AAFaulds19

IU and Bloomington are home to a prominent and flourishing art community. We have the Jacobs School of Music, the Department of Theatre, Drama and Contemporary Dance and the Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture + Design. Whether you enjoy theater, film or comedy, IU has a place for you to visit — or study art yourself.

IU Auditorium The IU Auditorium is the central part of campus. It is the go-to place on campus for students to attend a wide array of prominent and entertaining lectures, ceremonies and touring productions both on and off-Broadway.

This year there will be performances by "Daily Show" host Trevor Noah, dance and theater stage group Stomp and IU alumni a cappella group Straight No Chaser. Broadway hits such as “The Book of Mormon,” “Les Misérables,” “The Color Purple” and “Waitress” will also make their way to the stage.

As a student, you have a significant discount for all of these shows.

IU Musical Arts Center The IU Musical Arts Center gifts the grandiosity of large-scale New York ballet and opera theaters to student performers and audience members. Mozart’s “Marriage of Figaro,” Wagner’s “Parsifal” and Verdi’s “La Traviata” are just a few of the many scheduled performances for the 2019-20 season.

There will also be ballet productions such as “Cinderella” and the annual performance of “The Nutcracker.” This theater is located on Jordan Avenue next to the Jacobs School of Music.

Halls Theatre. The story focuses on Catherine Sloper, a wealthy, socially awkward woman who falls in love with a man her father believes is only after their money.

IU Cinema A world-class theater that has screened some of the most popular and most obscure films in the medium’s history, the IU Cinema often has multiple screenings every week.

Most of them are free to students.

It has also hosted some of today's most prominent filmmakers, including Roger Corman, John Waters, Werner Herzog, Nicolas Winding Refn and Ava DuVernay.

This theater is located adjacent to the IU Auditorium and faces a statue of IU alumnus Hoagy Carmichael playing piano. A program list for the fall 2019 semester will be announced in segments in late July or early August.

season already scheduled.

Upcoming productions include “Hamlet,” “Water by the Spoonful,” “Crazy for You,” “Big

Fish” and various theatre and dance showcases.

Throughout the year, the Studio Theatre

Orienter 2019 on the second floor of the building is used for several free blackbox theater productions led by students.

The Lee Norvelle Theatre and Drama Center is located on Jordan Avenue in the same building as the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center.

Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Museum of Art After several years being closed for renovations, the Eskenazi Museum of Art will reopen this fall.

Holding over 45,000 works from all over the world including those by Jackson Pollock, Claude Monet, Andy Warhol and Pablo Picasso, this museum has one of the most impressive collections in the state and the Midwest.

There is also a large collection of ancient art from Greece, Rome, China and various African countries.

The museum’s structure was designed by renowned Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei, who died May 16 at 102.

You can find this museum near Showalter Fountain, across from Woodburn Hall.

It is always important to try to support local artists, and with such a large art community here at IU, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to support them.

Tips for living in a dorm for the first time

By Claire Peters clapete@iu.edu | @claire_peterss

Living in a dorm for the first time can be a nerve-wracking change, as for most students it is the first time they are living completely on their own and sharing a space with another person.

There are a lot of things to consider and keep track of when you move in for the first time. Here are some of the most important ones.

Roommates: For many students this is the first time you will be sharing a space with another person their age, so establishing communication and setting clear ground rules and expectations is useful in order to ensure a smooth semester. Learning about each other’s sleeping habits and setting up policies for having friends in the room helps avoid conflicts throughout the semester.

Organization:

Moving in: This can be a long and painful process, so getting there early and being smart about packing can make all the difference. Arriving at your residence hall early not only has you face less traffic, it gives you more time the rest of the day to unpack and get comfortable in your new room.

Because there’s not a lot of space in dorm rooms, especially if you’re sharing space with a roommate, it’s especially important to be well organized to take up less room and keep track of your belongings. Although the rooms are furnished with dressers and closets, it might be helpful to bring some smaller organizational drawers if you bring a lot of items with you.

Hygiene:

sonCard, which you will get during orientation. You can also pay with change as well.

It’s likely that students have shared bathrooms on your floor, so making sure you’re clean and prepared is extremely important as illnesses can spread easily throughout the floor. Shower shoes are an absolute must so you're not showering amidst all the bacteria on the floor of the shower. You can also bring a shower caddy for additional organization and make the trip down the hall easier.

You can add money to your card through the One.IU website if you search under “CrimsonCard.” Because students share the laundry machines with the whole building, it’s important the laundry is taken out of the machine in a timely fashion so other students are able to use the machines if they need it.

Food:

Laundry: Residence halls have one or two laundry rooms per building, usually found on the ground floor or in the basement. What’s provided for students are the washers and dryers, so you need to bring your own laundry basket, detergent and dryer sheets.

Each cycle is one payment from your Crim-

It’s pretty common for students to have mini-fridges and microwaves in their room, but eating options within your dorm room can be pretty limited outside of snacks and small microwave meals. All dorms have a dining hall, C-store or are located very close to one on campus.

Packing tips for college: what to bring and what to leave them. It saves closet space and moving time.

The exception is if you live extremely far from campus, and it would be more convenient to bring everything at once.

By Ellen Hine emhine@iu.edu | @ellenmhine

After four years of residence hall living, I would say I still own roughly 10% of everything I bought for my first dorm room. The rest has been donated or thrown away because I simply had too much stuff.

The internet is full of “helpful” lists of what you need to make your first dorm room perfect. If you follow them, you can find yourself bogged down with more stuff than you could ever possibly use. Here are some tips to save some money, space and moving time.

Don’t bring lots of organizing systems or extra storage.

It may be tempting to break out the shoe organizers and the plastic drawers but wait until you actually see your room with all your stuff in it. See what kind of storage you have in your drawers and closets, then decide if you need more. Otherwise, you can spend a lot of money on storage solutions that sit empty and take up space.

Do bring cleaning essentials and tools.

Dorm rooms can get gross if you don’t clean them regularly. Most floors will have

Do bring some appliances.

A minifridge or a microwave can be great for when you’re tired of eating dorm food.

But if you don’t want or can’t afford to invest in bigger appliances, consider getting smaller ones like a coffee maker, an electric kettle or a filtered pitcher for water. These items can save you money in the long run.

Tools to assemble or disassemble furniture are also important, but you don’t need to get a huge toolbox. I found I got by pretty

What you need to know about buying textbooks for class Sometimes the book you need has just been released or is the newest edition of an old book. In that case, you’re going to have to get a new copy no matter what. Shop around to find the best rental or buying price.

By Ellen Hine emhine@iu.edu | @ellenmhine

Textbooks. They’re more expensive than you may think — way more expensive.

It’s important to shop wisely when buying your books for the new semester, and there are a ton of factors to consider when you’re looking for the best deal. Here are some things to think about when you buy your textbooks.

Online or in-person?

Consider if you want to get your book at the IU Bookstore in the Indiana Memorial Union, TIS College Bookstore or an online vendor such as Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

Getting your books online means more options and direct shipping to your residence, but buying them in-person means you can ensure the quality of books you’re getting.

Buy or rent?

Buying a book means it’s yours for as long as you want it. Renting it means you’ll need to give it back, typically at the end of the semester. Renting is typically cheaper than buying, but you’ll need to keep your books in good condition to be returned.

Buying is more expensive but might be a good option if you know you will need to use a book in a future class or would just like to keep it. Rentals often go quick, especially for popular or required classes. Act fast, or you might be forced to buy the book instead.

Electronic or physical?

ALEX DERYN | IDS

Textbooks sit at the foot of a bed May 17 at University East Apartments.

New or used?

Used books are usually in poorer condition than new ones, but they’re also cheap-

er. Try to get the nicest used copy you can find if you get your books in person. If all the used copies are pretty beat up, consider renting a new one.

Many textbooks now have electronic copies students can buy or rent instead of a physical book. Electronic copies can be cheaper than physical copies and are certainly easier to carry around. But some students learn better from physical books and have a hard time reading electronic copies.

It really is a matter of personal preference.

Your guide to staying healthy on campus

By Emily Isaacman eisaacma@iu.edu | @emilyisaacman

College is a huge adjustment: different schedule, different expectations, different living environment, different food.

While you will likely — or rather, hopefully — learn to find joy through these changes, the newness of it all could take a toll on your mental and physical wellbeing. That’s normal. Watching out for your health is nothing to be ashamed of, and luckily you have many resources at your disposal.

Exercise IU has several options to help you stay strong and healthy through fitness. Not used to hitting the gym? No problem. Are you a seasoned athlete? You’re covered.

Unlike a full high school schedule, college classes span throughout the day and give you plenty of time to hit the gym.

The Student Recreational Sports Center across from Teter Quad has large strength and cardio areas, seven racquetball courts, two squash courts, five basketball/volleyball courts and an indoor walking, jogging and running track. There's also an Olympicsized swimming pool and diving well.

If working out in a crowded space among lots of people makes you uncomfortable, you can find more privacy in a few smaller rooms with cardio and strength equipment.

Depending on your dorm location or class schedule, you might find it more convenient to visit the Intramural Center across from the Indiana Memorial Union.

A cardio and circuit gym upstairs has six types of cardio machines and open space for stretching and body weight exercises.

Just be sure to check its hours because sometimes this gym closes due to extreme heat.

A lower level strength gym has another cardio gym, bench press, free weights, resistance machines and Olympic platforms.

The Intramural Center also has an indoor track and a basketball court.

Maybe working out on your own is terrifyingly unknown territory and you have no idea what to do with any of these machines.

That’s OK! Your student activity fee, which you’ve already paid through tuition, gets you access to more than 80 Recreational Sports group exercise classes a week. Most of these are at the SRSC, but some are at the Intramural Center, too.

You can take yoga, cycle, strength core, barre fitness, zumba and several other ses-

sions geared toward all levels. Many of the group exercise leaders are students who are working to motivate themselves just as much as you are.

Food IU has several dining hall options and multiple stations within each location.

NetNutrition is an online tool to help calculate the nutritional value of products on daily menus.

A small red apple called an “Eat Right” symbol appears next to options that contain fiber-rich whole grains, fresh produce, healthy fats and lean proteins.

Other icons include a red circle with the state of Indiana to note local products, a green Halal symbol, a dark green circle with a “V” to note vegetarian choices, a medium green circle with “VGN” to indicate vegan foods and a white circle with “RF” to signify items that qualify as “Real Food.”

Real Food meets several standards set by the Real Food Challenge, a nationwide social movement led by students to improve

the food system for producers, consumers, communities and the earth.

Symbols on menus also note food allergens dietary restrictions such as dairy, egg and peanuts.

Registered dietitians are also available at the IU Health Center.

Physical Health When you’re living in such close quarters, physical health problems can be inevitable.

The IU Health Center is located at 600 N. Jordan Ave. across from Herman B Wells Library and has a full-service medical clinic, lab, X-ray facility, women’s clinic and pharmacy. A walk-in clinic and physical therapy are also available.

The Health Center does not require health insurance, and you can charge visits and prescription drugs to your IU Bursar account.

Mental Health Mental illness is prevalent on all college

campuses.

Exercising and eating well are strong first steps toward guarding your mental health.

But your emotional state can go south often for reasons far outside your control. Your emotional wellbeing can affect your studies, social life and personal success, so taking every step possible to protect yourself is incredibly important.

Professionals at Counseling and Psychological Services at the IU Health Center are available to talk through experiences ranging from academic concerns, stress, anxiety, depression, body image and substance use.

This year, CAPS began offering video counseling services to reduce potential barriers to seeking help.

CAPS also has a 24-hour crisis line at 812-855-8900.

Full-time IU students have two free CAPS appointments. Sexual Assault Crisis Service appointments are free.

Turning to any of these resources is something to celebrate. Here’s to a healthy, happy college career.

Call 812-855-9737 to order today or bill it to your bursar when you register. Find it at the bottom of the fees list.
