WELCOME FROM THE PROVOST

“From the very beginning,” wrote legendary IU President Herman B Wells, “I fell in love with Indiana University.” Many visitors to our campus have said the same. There’s something magical in the combination of limestone architecture, wooded pathways and seasonal splendor. “The whole air of the place,” Wells recalled, “nurtured individuality and creativity.” That air of inspiration comes not only from the beauty of the campus but also from nearly 200 years of commitment to academic excellence. As a leading research university devoted to preparing students for a globally connected world, the spirit of IU-Bloomington reflects a commitment to diversity, academic freedom, creative expression and international engagement. Whether you’ve come to Bloomington to visit, to study or

to make it your home, I am delighted to welcome you to this inspiring environment. This guide will help you discover ways to engage directly with the best that IU-Bloomington has to offer, whether you are interested in the arts, athletics, academics or experiencing our beloved traditions like the Little 500 bicycle race. At IU, we’re proud of our stellar performance centers. The IU Auditorium, which hosts outstanding touring productions, also houses the historic Thomas Hart Benton murals created for the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair. Opera and ballet performances at the majestic Musical Arts Center showcase the talents of the students and faculty in the world-renowned Jacobs School of Music. Additionally, IU-

Bloomington’s Theatre and Drama Department, recently ranked a top-10 theater program by the Princeton Review, hosts a fascinating lineup of performances in the Lee Norvelle Theatre and Drama Center. Other enriching opportunities exist within our cultural centers. These vital community centers, along with our GLBT Student Support Services and our Office of International Services, reflect our shared commitment to a vibrantly diverse and multicultural campus. As you explore IU-Bloomington’s centers, exhibits and landmarks, I hope you’ll also take the time to learn about the proud history of this campus. This issue of Source offers a brief biography of Wells, the visionary IU

president who guided the campus to international prominence. It also recalls the influential work of Nobel Prize-winning IUBloomington political economist Elinor Ostrom who, together with her husband Vincent, founded our Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis. Beyond the campus, I invite you to indulge in our incredible culinary, artistic and entertainment offerings, all served with characteristic small-town friendliness.

“The most recently hired custodian was as important to him as the most distinguished professor.” Ken Gros Louis, University Chancellor Emeritus

LEGACY OF HERMAN B WELLS BY MICHAEL AUSLEN mauslen@indiana.edu

Before Herman B Wells took charge of IU, the University was just a small Midwestern college with 11,000 students. By the time he died in 2000, it had become a world-renowned institution with more than 90,000 students on eight campuses. “He put Indiana University on the map,” said James Capshew, associate professor of history and philosophy of science and author of a Wells biography. “Not just in the Big Ten, but nationally and internationally.” Wells served as the 11th president of IU from 1938 to 1962 and as University chancellor from 1962 until he passed away in 2000. He came here as a student in 1921 and fell in love with the campus, Capshew said. “When he became president, he was determined to offer students a similar experience to Source • Campus Visitors Guide

what he had,” Capshew said. Wells is known for making some of the most substantial changes to the University that helped make it what it is today. “He created, I think, a very extraordinary culture in Bloomington,” said University Chancellor Emeritus Ken Gros Louis, who knew Wells. “The most recently hired custodian was as important to him as the most distinguished professor.” There are many stories about Wells’ successful desegregation efforts in Bloomington and on campus. “He didn’t rustle feathers,” Capshew said. “He found a way to remove barriers.” During the early part of his presidency, a restaurant originally located on Indiana Avenue, The Gables, did not serve black students. Wells called the owner of the restaurant and asked him to serve blacks. The owner refused. “Wells said, ‘I understand,

but I hope you will understand if I make The Gables off-limits to all students,’” Gros Louis said. “The owner started serving black students.” Wells was also the driving force behind IU recruiting the first black basketball player in the Big Ten. He stood up against powerful figures in defense of Alfred Kinsey, whose research into human sexuality drew criticism. As president and chancellor, Wells kept in mind the future growth of the University and realized that because the institution would far outlive him, he should provide for its future. The first building Wells constructed as president was the IU Auditorium. “He said he built it because he wanted to tell students, especially students from rural Indiana, that the world was available to them,” Gros Louis said. Wells genuinely cared about

the University’s students, Capshew said. Wells developed a reputation for remembering people’s names, even if they had only met once, and he frequently took strolls around campus to meet students. In his old age, his assistants helped him. “He really led through that empathy, that fellow feeling that he had for students and faculty,” Capshew said. Today, Wells is remembered on campus. The main library is named in his honor, and a bronze statue of him sits on a bench in the Old Crescent looking over Dunn’s Woods, an area he banned the University from developing. “He’s the one that made what I think is a very special culture,” Gros Louis said. “The time will come when nobody living will remember him, but he’ll still be remembered because of what he did for this University.” Spring/Summer 2013 • Campus • 3

HOAGY

Chart-topping jazz musician penned his first record hits as an IU Hoosier

Autographed publicity photo of Hoagy Carmichael BY MARYJANE SLABY mslaby@indiana.edu

The spooning wall, a low limestone wall near the law school, was a favorite meeting spot for lovers. But as Howard Hoagland Carmichael sat there, he realized just how alone he was. In 1927, at 28, he had returned to his alma mater and his hometown of Bloomington. All his friends were graduated and gone. The girl he loved was gone, too. And the campus lacked the vibrancy it seemed to have during his college days. But then, as legend has it, he decided to stop feeling sorry for himself and started with a tune. A melody popped into the songwriter’s head, and it was so compelling that he ran to his favorite hangout, the Book Nook on Indiana Avenue. It was closed, but he pounded on the door anyway, and the owner let him in.

Inside, he rushed to the piano to compose what would later, once its tempo was slowed to a ballad, become one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century. “Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely nights dreaming of a song.” The song was “Stardust.” *** A photo hanging in the Book Nook, now known as The Gables, depicts Carmichael at the piano with a circle of friends around him. Students regarded the battered upright piano in the corner as Carmichael’s. He even charmed the workers of the Book Nook into allowing him to stay after hours and play as they washed dishes. Carmichael was known as a charismatic and humorous performer. “It was the Kilroy’s of its time,” said David Johnson, WFIU jazz producer and sys-

tems coordinator. “A Kilroy’s without booze.” The energy of the Prohibition Era created a counter-culture where Carmichael could follow his creative impulses and become an unpredicted success. And people, especially on college campuses in the 1920s, thought hot jazz was exciting, Johnson said. Hoagy loved to attempt to play the trumpet all around campus. “Hoagy, shut up!” people would yell. But he didn’t listen. *** After graduating from law school in 1926, Carmichael had to find a real job, so he accepted one as a lawyer in Florida and hated it. He did the bare minimum every day just to get by and not be fired. But as legend goes, Carmichael was sitting at his desk in

the law office one day when, through the open window, he could hear the notes of a familiar song coming from a nearby record store. But the song seemed more than familiar. He realized it was not just a song he knew but a song he had written. The song was “Washboard Blues,” and he was listed on the record as the composer. “That’s it,” he thought. “I’m a songwriter. I don’t have to be a lawyer. I quit.” He returned home to Bloomington and was in the right place at the right time. Gennett Records was in nearby Richmond, Ind., making Bloomington a stop on the jazz circuit along the way to Chicago. Big names of jazz, such as Louis Armstrong, stopped by, and Carmichael met them. His career as a jazz singer/ songwriter, and later as an actor, took off. The rest was legend.

Flowers for Hoagy IU legend’s statue pleasant reminder of past BY JOHN BAUERNFEIND jogbauer@indiana.edu

With his left hand perched atop his piano and his right hand playing the keyboard, the Hoagy Carmichael Landmark Sculpture rests in a comfortable spot next to the IU Cinema. A flower is often found in the bronze statue’s hand. The flower is not a part of the sculpture. Rather, a real one is placed through the statue’s slightly open hand and on its fedora. “Generally, it’s IU patrons that walk along and pick one off, like our mums or our petunias, and puts it there,” said Mike Girvin, campus division manager of the IU Physical Plant. Girvin said his first year at IU was the same year the sculpture found a permanent home in Bloomington. Still, Girvin said his department had no role in the placement of the flowers and maintains he has never personally placed a flower on the statue. The flowers and the people who place them on the sculpture often change. Except for winter, Hoagy sees a different flower each season. “I’ve seen every different flower that we’ve grown in his hands at one time,” Girvin said.

A DIFFERENT FLOWER, A DIFFERENT SEASON Tulips and petunias in the spring Mums in the fall IU normally grows an array of flowers such as tulips and petunias in the spring and mums in the fall. During his time at IU, Carmichael led IU’s band, appropriately named Carmichael’s Collegians, and went on to become an acclaimed jazz composer. Carmichael’s song “In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening” won him an Oscar for Best Original Song in 1952. Sculptor Michael McAuley, who also grew up in Bloomington, said it was a year-long process to sculpt the statue. The flowers have become a consistent part of Hoagy’s presence. “They just keep reappearing, because now it’s turned into a tradition,” McAuley said. The statue has its own blog, which includes pictures of the sculpture in different cities and settings, from different angles and with different items in its hand. Here on IU’s campus, in the midst of students hustling between classes and visitors taking a break to sit and enjoy the weather, Hoagy and his flowers remain a constant reminder of the spirit of generations past.

In 1962, the IU Board of Trustees designated Dunn Meadow as the only space on campus for spontaneous free speech. The trustees might have tried to do students a favor by giving them a space to express themselves. But by designating free speech, they also limited it. This timeline shows just a glimpse of how different groups and cultures have used the meadow from 1960 to the present — each expressing their own wishes and remembrances in a single, historical space. Dunn Meadow has also been a runway, a circus and more. Access the complete timeline at idsnews.com/dunnmeadow. 24, 1962 1 Oct.

The legend of Dunn Cemetery BY JOHN BAUERNFEIND jogbauer@indiana.edu

Between the Indiana Memorial Union and Ballantine Hall lie two landmarks of IU lore and tradition. Beck Chapel and Dunn Cemetery stand adjacent to one another, prominent figures on a campus flooded with icons of the past. Throngs of students shuttle by each day, absentmindedly aware of the history nearby. Allison Sparks, event manager at the IMU, said Beck Chapel was constructed in 1956 and draws mostly wedding ceremonies. “We do not have a waiting list, contrary to many peoples’ beliefs,” Sparks said. “You could get married in the chapel tomorrow if you wanted to.” If a couple so desires, they can call to be married on any Saturday. Sparks said the chapel can hold up to three weddings in a day, and in the months of May through July, each Saturday is typically fully booked. The chapel is also home to some fraternity and sorority initiation rituals, as well as study and prayer of all faiths. The building, made of Indiana limestone, is a non-denominational haven for students practicing any religion. 8 • Campus • Spring/Summer 2013

In 1956, Frank and Daisy Beck presented the chapel as a gift to IU, their alma mater. Frank Beck, an alumnus from the class of 1894, wished to provide the campus with a place in which students could meditate and worship. With a slate roof and just 16 golden oak pews, the chapel can only hold 65 people at a time. “I think it’s a little hidden gem on campus,” Sparks said. “We get a lot of alumni to come back. It’s special to them.” Just below the small chapel lies Dunn Cemetery, a small graveyard filled with worn grass and slowly eroding tombs. “Some people call it ‘God’s Little Acre,’” said Thom Simmons, associate executive director of the IMU. “It’s about an acre in size.” Unlike the chapel, the history of Dunn Cemetery is obscure and convoluted, evoking more legend than fact. What is known is that the cemetery was named after the Dunn family, which previously owned a farm across the land on which most of the campus now stands. When the University sought to buy the farm, the Dunn family agreed to sell it to the school on one condition: the cemetery would remain

untouched. “My understanding is it was deeded separately, and so that acre is deeded as the Dunn Cemetery,” Simmons said. The University does not own any of the plots or have control over any future burials. The first burial was conducted in 1814, two years before Indiana became a state and six before the school’s founding. Dunn Cemetery is still active, though only relatives and spouses of the Dunn family are to be buried there. Simmons said Edward Hutton, the namesake of IU’s Hutton Honors College, was married to a descendent of the

Bloomington’s hometown composer and IU alumnus Hoagy Carmichael petitioned for burial in Dunn Cemetery but was turned away because of faulty lineage. Dunns. When he died in 2009, his ashes were buried in the family cemetery. The histories of Beck Chapel and Dunn Cemetery are intertwined with that of the University, histories in the heart of campus.

Celebrating the Ostroms Nobel laureate, husband left mark on University

BY KIRSTEN CLARK kirclark@indiana.edu

Provost and Executive Vice President Lauren Robel remembers driving distinguished professor of political science Elinor Ostrom home from Martinsville, Ind., after a speaking engagement at a charity camp. It was late at night, she said, and Elinor Ostrom had to fly out of Indianapolis early the next morning. “So I drove her to that beautiful little house on Lampkins Ridge, and it was easily 11:30 when I got there,” Robel said. “And I remember Vincent peeking out the window, waiting up for her.” Nine professors and administrators from around the world contributed vignettes and remarks during a celebration of the lives of Elinor Ostrom and her husband, distinguished IU scholar Vincent Ostrom, who both died in June 2012. Hundreds of students, faculty and friends of the Ostroms attended the event, which took place Oct. 15, 2012, at the IU Auditorium. Political science professor Michael McGinnis remembers joining the Ostroms during holidays and later helping the couple with medical appointments. Elinor Ostrom’s death came earlier than expected, McGinnis said, but in ways it was comforting both husband and wife died within weeks of one another. “They had always been a team,” McGinnis said. “In their research and their affection for one another.” University of Colorado associate professor Krister Andersson said Elinor and Vincent Ostrom were an example of the power of working together. Although many knew Elinor Ostrom for her work in academia and the recognition she received as a result — she is the only woman to have won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Eco-

nomic Sciences — IU professor of political science Marjorie Hershey said she had the privilege of knowing Elinor Ostrom personally. Like most of the speakers at the event, Hershey knew Elinor Ostrom as simply, “Lin.” “Lin’s contribution to daily lives should have won her a second Nobel prize,” she said. The Nobel Prize winner was also a longtime competitive swimmer who loved Inuit art. “Lin” hated shopping so much that when she found a pair of comfortable shoes, Hershey said, she would buy as many pairs as she could so it would be years before she had to shop again. She and her husband also built a cabin on Manitoulin Island in Canada. The cabin had no electricity or running water. In a video presentation created by Carleton College profes-

sor of social sciences Barbara Allen, the couple talked about furniture they built. The Ostroms’ house and everything in it has been given to the University, IU President Michael McRobbie said. The School of International and Global Studies, scheduled to begin construction in spring 2013, will include a room dedicated to the couple and will house some of their handmade furniture. Other speakers included Washington University in St. Louis professor and 1993 Nobel laureate Douglass North, School of Public and Environmental Affairs Dean John Graham, Delft University of Technology professor and Dean Theo Toonen and University of Cincinnati assistant professor Gwen Arnold. At the conclusion of the event, IU President McRobbie and Robel unveiled a portrait of Elinor Ostrom to be displayed in

Behind her sits an open laptop, which McRobbie said signifies her steadfast work ethic, and right beside her sits a picture of her husband.

CAMPUS PRIDE

IU recognized as GLBT-friendly community by national organizations FROM IDS REPORTS

IU is one of the nation’s top 25 GLBT-friendliest colleges, according to a list released in August 2012 by nonprofit Campus Pride and the Huffington Post. “I’m not entirely surprised, because we work very hard at making this a friendly campus, and we get lots of support,” said Doug Bauder, Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Student Support Services coordinator. IU also earned Campus Pride’s perfect five-star rating on the GLBT-Friendly Campus Climate Index in the results released in August 2011. The GLBT SSS fills out a survey each year that evaluates eight topics, including support and institutional commitment, academic and student life, housing, safety, counseling and recruitment efforts.

Only 33 of 291 institutions were given the five-star rating. The survey mainly includes administrative policies and available resources. It doesn’t address who uses those resources or why. “Students aren’t just gay, bisexual, lesbian or transgender. There are lots of different identities that are intersecting,” said senior Barton Girdwood, a triple major in Gender Studies, Communication and Culture, and an individualized major in Human Migration and Diaspora studies. “We have lots of resources, but how do we build community?” If a student is openly gay and Latino, for example, he might go to Latino friends instead of a GLBT center because that community is already supportive of one part of his identity. Collaboration or integration of programs between GLBT SSS and other culture centers could pro-

vide increased resources, Girdwood said. However, the GLBT SSS aims to support students no matter which other groups they identify with. “GLBT issues are part of the diversity dialogue on campus,” Bauder said. “We have a widespread approach to providing support to gay students.” Girdwood acknowledged IU has made significant steps in GLBT acceptance but said the University can do more. “There are some individuals, especially Doug Bauder, that have made IU a very inclusive campus at an administrative and policy level,” Girdwood said. “But there are lots of things that need to be dealt with, and those come into stark light when talking about gender-neutral housing, bathrooms and accessing safe spaces.” Bauder said the University is

GAY AND GREEK Students have been working to establish a larger gay presence in IU’s greek system. Sigma Phi Beta, a fraternity that expanded to IU in 2010, was the first greek organization on campus to cater specifically to the GLBT and allied population. A chapter of Gamma Rho Lambda is still in its beginning stages. Though it has been referred to as the first lesbian sorority on campus, the national organization strives to welcome all members, regardless of sexual orientation.

also beginning to address quicker updates of records for students who undergo a gender transition during college. “We’re still learning,” Bauder said. “But this is a great place to do that.”

“Food is such an essential part of our life that it seems like an obvious place to go to look for solutions to the broader issues we face as a country.” Frances Einterz, student and Office of Sustainability intern

Growing as a campus Hilltop Garden and Nature Center promotes local food production by encouraging volunteers to grow their own crops BY AMANDA JACOBSON aj56@indiana.edu

Situated between the Tulip Tree and Campus View apartments is Hilltop Garden and Nature Center — an 8,500-squarefoot garden plot dedicated to the care and growth of sustainable food. This garden, in conjunction with the Bryan House Gardens at the heart of campus, produces a large variety of crops grown by local residents, student volunteers and faculty. But these gardens aren’t part of a science project, a campus organization or a biology course. They are grown to educate students and residents of Bloomington about sustainable food as part of the Campus Garden Initiative. A program of the Office of Sustainability, the initiative encourages all its volunteers to grow, harvest and take home their crops at the end of each season. Frances Einterz, Office of Sustainability intern and IU biology student, said this practice allows volunteers to realize where their food comes from matters. The Hilltop Gardens are the 12 • Campus • Spring/Summer 2013

newest addition to the initiative, which is in its second season this spring. The gardens accommodate everything from leeks to leafy greens, watermelon to tomatoes and even herbs like basil and parsley. Einterz said the campus gardens are also part of a wider program called the Edible Campus Initiative that aims to raise awareness and educate its participants about the importance of and interconnection between local food, food production, food waste and our nation’s current food system. “We want them to understand that food is seasonal, and if you are eating locally there is some restriction to what you can buy,” Einterz said. As well as informing volunteers about the origins of food, the initiative pairs with University needs to provide food for IU students and visitors alike. Although many might not realize it yet, the campus gardens work with the Indiana Memorial Union’s Tudor Room to provide it with fresh salad greens, produce and herbs for use in luncheons

and other dining events. Residential Programs and Services also receives fruits of the initiative’s labor, sending produce to select dorms for use in dining hall salad bars or certain prepared foods. Once the produce goes through the Residential Programs and Services or Indiana Memorial Union dining systems, it goes straight back to the gardens in the form of compost. Einterz said the rotation of crops and use of compost keeps local soil healthy and has a bigger impact than most people realize. “When someone buys an apple at the store, it’s having a bigger impact,” she said. “It has environmental and economic consequences and social consequences. The whole point is to get people to think about their health, society’s health and the environment’s health.” Volunteers offer their time to the gardens on a weekly basis to help sustain the crops year round. As many as 15 volunteers can work at each garden on any given work day. Currently, work days fall from 5 to 7 p.m. Tuesdays at Hilltop. Bryan House Gardens

Einterz said the schedule varies each academic year but is updated frequently in the Office of Sustainability’s online events calendar. Parking at Hilltop is free for all volunteers, and so is the experience. Einterz said the sustainable food movement is something obvious to her but not so evident to others. “My mom always had a garden, and my dad is a biologist, so I can look at it from a biological perspective as well,” she said. “Food is such an essential part of our life that it seems like an obvious place to go to look for solutions to the broader issues we face as a country. Especially when our country is producing enough calories to feed the whole world, but people still go hungry. It makes sense and it’s logical that this would be a part of my life.” Source • Campus Visitors Guide


Taboo topics Kinsey Institute brings world-class sex research to IU BY RAVEN CARPENTER ravecarp@indiana.edu

Sex is usually a pretty taboo subject, but at IU’s Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction, the bedroom is their business. The Kinsey Institute, while sometimes controversial, has become one of the top places in the world for sexual research. The institute’s primary focus is to provide research about and analysis of sexuality to researchers and the public.

Alfred Kinsey, a biologist and zoologist, was the founder. He was curious about human sexual behaviors and relationships. He researched his theories using face-to-face interviews, which, especially during the initial stages, caused quite a commotion. From this, he developed the Kinsey Reports, two books featuring human sexuality — one for males and one for females. The institute was brought to IU in 1947 to provide a stable

and secure location for Kinsey’s research. “It’s one of the treasures of Indiana University,” said Jennifer Bass, communications director for the Kinsey Institute. “There are many students who are interested in human sexuality, and there are not very many academic sources for studying topics related to sexuality.” Today, the institute includes artwork, books, films, an art gallery and other resources. It has even branched out to create Kinsey Confidential, a

Hoosier?

IDS FILE PHOTO

BY MICHELA TINDERA | mtindera@indiana.edu

OK, we get it. No one knows what a Hoosier is. But that hasn’t stopped the student body throughout the last century from defining what it could mean. From a fluffy collie dog to a live, raging bull, here are some of IU’s mascot attempts and failures. 1. White Collie, debuted 1935 Sororities and fraternities raised money to purchase a white collie, which was selected from a poll run by an honorary upperclassmen’s organization in the Indiana Daily Student. While there were plans to unveil the collie at the Nov. 23, 1935, IU-Purdue football game, it is unclear whether the mascot ever came to fruition. In the last known report, students had only raised $37.27 of the $75 necessary to purchase a pedigreed pooch. 2. Hoosier Schoolmaster, debuted 1951 Then-sophomore Dick Albershardt would came out at the beginning of games dressed as an old man, sporting a grey wig and glasses. He would throw them off and perform a gymnastics routine to get fans riled up for the game. But according to an IDS

article from Feb. 19, 1952, the audience’s reception of the Schoolmaster was not always a warm one. The article said, “In fifty years from now, if we keep the tradition, the Hoosier Schoolmaster, like the University of Illinois Indian, will arouse spirit just by walking onto the floor and will carry a fervent significance for all students and alumni of IU.” Unfortunately, the Schoolmaster went the same way as the Illinois Indian and faded into the tomes of mascot history. 3. Ox the Bulldog, debuted 1959 Theta Chi’s house dog, Ox, made the transition from fraternity pet to school mascot and served for several years of his life. He could be found around the football games wearing a red sweater with a white “I” sewn on. And in 1966, he was even walked

by Mary Travers of folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary when she visited IU for a game. 4. Bison, debuted 1965 This was known as the school’s first “official” mascot because the Student Senate selected it in an official vote. And though the University attempted to purchase a live buffalo for the second time (the first attempt was in 1946), the plan was foiled yet again by safety concerns for both the bull and the crowd. Instead, Disney helped create a $1,400 costume. Despite the high costs, they forgot to cut out eyeholes in the bull’s head, making mascot performances especially difficult. The buffalo head was eventually hung up for good in 1969 due to criticism from fans and alumni. 5. Mr. Hoosier Pride, debuted 1979 Probably one of the most strongly disliked mascots of

Hoosier history, this costumed cowboy had to be played by two students in the course of one football game because the costume was so heavy, hot and difficult to maneuver in. One of Mr. Hoosier Pride’s most memorable moments was tackling the Brigham Young University cougar mascot when IU made an appearance at the Holiday Bowl, but students and alumni alike supposedly hated this mascot. One student wrote to the IDS, saying, “Mr. Hoosier Pride is the most asinine and ridiculous-looking character anyone could have dreamed up to be IU’s mascot.” In addition, several alumni sent letters demanding the mascot’s removal. Mr. Hoosier Pride eventually hung up the costume after only a couple of seasons.

ESPN chooses IU custodian as top 10 fan BY JESSICA CONTRERA mjcontre@indiana.edu

Justin Wright is not your average basketball fanatic. Where others stand and scream, he scrubs and sweeps. They paint their faces — he paints the hallways. They show up early for tickets — he stays late for toilets. You might call him the janitor. But ESPN calls him one of the top 10 fans in the world. Wright, a custodian at Assembly Hall, was a finalist in ESPN’s Hall of Fans competition. On thehalloffans.com, people vote each year for the world’s best sports fan. Wright was one of 10 finalists chosen from more than 10,000 entries for the hall’s inaugural class of 2012. But unlike his competition, Wright doesn’t just support his team — he works for it. Five nights each week, the modern-day Mop Man kisses his wife and young children goodbye, drives his pickup truck to Assembly Hall and starts his 10 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. shift. He doesn’t mind the hours. He gets to be essentially alone with the building he loves. “I hate to say it’s my building or anything, but I feel like it’s mine,” he said. “I take care of it like it’s my own.” He cleans the building from the bottom up: locker rooms, offices, bathrooms and hallways. But he always saves the best for last.

The court. “When I’m sweeping, I look up and see the banners, and sometimes, I just get chills,” Wright said. “To think about all that has happened here ... all the games, the talks, the history ... it’s just, it’s just awesome.” Although 29-year-old Wright grew up just minutes from Assembly Hall, he only witnessed “all that happened” on television. Wright’s great-grandmother, who raised him, could never afford to take him to games. Still, Wright credits her for instilling his love of IU athletics. “I’ll never forget the first time she drove me by Assembly Hall and Memorial Stadium,” Wright said. “I was 5 or 6. She said, ‘There’s where all the basketball and football players play.’ “Every time we drove by after that, I smashed my face up against the window and looked for the players and coaches. I thought they were going to come out in their uniforms or something.” Today, Wright is known for how hard he works to support those players and coaches, said Bob Gilmore, custodial shift supervisor of IU athletics. “He cares. He takes pride in what he does,” Gilmore said. “He’s an excellent custodian. But he’s an even better coworker, dad, husband and all-around excellent person.” In winning, he would be inducted into the Hall of Fans on ESPN’s Connecticut campus and featured in ESPN The Magazine.

Justin Wright stands at half court with his dust mop in Assembly Hall. Wright works from 10 p.m. until 6:30 a.m. to make sure the home of the Hoosiers is spotless.

He’d also receive $500 and an all-expense-paid trip to New York. But he was aching to share the spotlight. “This isn’t just for me,” he said. “I want it to be for the crew I work for, for Indiana athletics and for all of Hoosier Nation.” Ultimately, though, Wright did not win entry to the Hall of

Fans. But no matter the results, Wright said, he’d still be loyal to IU basketball and Assembly Hall. “Yeah, I’m cleaning toilets and doing some nasty stuff, but I love it here,” he said. “I’m not going anywhere. “I’ve got to see them get another banner.”

when the Hundred go

MARCHING IN BY TAYLOR GRAYSON tawygray@indiana.edu

As the first strains of “Indiana, Our Indiana” float over the crowd, the announcer declares for all to hear, “The Marching Hundred.” The members of this tradition of excellence begin to march, the crowd’s synchronized clapping cheering them forward. The band blares the last few notes and moves into the beloved “IU” formation to represent its school. Professor David Woodley, director of athletic bands, signals for “horns down,” and the band is met with ever-growing cheers. This is the Marching Hundred — one of Indiana’s crowning and award-winning achievements. The Marching Hundred is far from new on the IU campus. The first band in 1856 was composed of only 22 members. The popularity of the band began to flourish as the years went by, receiving national recognition in the 1920s from such personalities as John Philip Sousa. From that point on, the Marching Hundred would hold a place in the tradition of IU and become one of the staples of Saturday college football. Woodley, more fondly known as “the Colonel” by his students, explained that the band is more than just the school’s marching band, but rather the spirit of IU, incorporating students from all walks of life. “We have students in Hundred who come from literally every major on campus, so we are one of the few groups on campus who is literally supported and made up of all of the other schools,” Woodley said. The Marching Hundred also provides its students with oncein-a-lifetime opportunities they would not be able to find in any other club on campus, its members assert. “It’s been absolutely amazing, and I’ve gotten so many great opportunities, like performing at the Super Bowl and traveling to all of these places,” junior

member Devin Traxler said. “My freshman year, I went to Washington D.C. and played in the Redskins stadium. All of these cool things that I would never be able to do, I get to do because of Hundred.” The Super Bowl performance, which was played in nearby Indianapolis in 2012, struck a chord with many other band members, with a pregame performance and halftime performance as well. “It was something that was unexpected for all of the members, because typically IU doesn’t really go to bowl games in general. But being able to take a trip like that was incredible,” drum major Nathan Pratt said. “We performed in Lucas Oil Stadium for Colts games, but the crowd was so different because it was the Super Bowl. It was really exciting because it was like waiting eight hours for this really awesome five minutes.” And with new experiences comes the retirement of old traditions. This year marked the end of the popular “First Down March” at the request of the football team because the football team was unable to hear the next play with the band playing. The march is now played after touchdowns, and members have slowly gotten on board. “I’m there to support the team, so if it will make a big difference, I’d rather see us win than play a march,” senior member Paul Reinhart said. “If it’s effective, I’m all for it.” In addition to a tradition of excellence, the Marching Hundred is working to finish its practice facility. In Oct. 2012, the band received a gift of $500,000 from Bloomington’s Cook Group Inc. Marching Hundred Hall is in the beginning stages of construction. “We are the soundtrack for athletics here,” Woodley said. “When you go to a sporting event, you are going to hear a band. As we look to the future, we want to remain a very important part of what athletics does.” Source • Campus Visitors Guide

Biggest

little race

Students hit the track for a competition and a cause BY STEPHANIE KUZYDYM skuzydym@indiana.edu

To the students of IU, it’s not just a bike race. It’s the Little 500. Each spring, hundreds of students turn into athletes in the largest collegiate cycling race in the country and the biggest intramural event at IU when they ride in the Little 500. Modeled after the motor race that takes place 56 miles away at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the Little 500 sends fourperson teams around a quarter-mile track in separate races for men and women. Howdy Wilcox, thenexecutive director of the IU Student Foundation, founded the Little 500 race in 1951, 32 years after his father won the Indianapolis 500. The race was featured in the

IDS FILE PHOTO Cyclists practice for speed and endurance in preparation for the annual Little 500 race at Bill Armstrong Stadium.

1979 movie “Breaking Away,” which tells the tale of an underdog team of locals who work to win the race. The team acquires the nickname “Cutters” after the phrase was used as an insult to stone cutters who worked at Bloomington limestone quarries. Similar to the traditions of kissing the sidewalk and drinking cold milk that accompany the Indy 500, the Little 500 is full of traditions of mounting Schwinns and crashing on Turn Three. But it’s also an experience — one that former Cutters rider Eric Young will never forget. Young, a four-year rider for the historic team, crossed the finish line first during each of his four years riding in the Little 500 — a feat no other rider had achieved before. The Cutters rider had al-

ways planned to go to graduate school for neuroscience following his time in Bloomington. He had never heard of the Little 500 before, but four championships and one contract later, Young became a professional cyclist for Bissell cycling. “I did not think I would be earning money to race until my senior year,” Young said. “I learned a lot from Little Five — a lot about teamwork and perseverance. It definitely defined my college experience.” Coordinated by the IU Student Foundation, the Little 500 helps raise money for working student scholarships. The race has raised more than $1.5 million in scholarships since its inception. And though it is an intramural event, former student and Wing It Cycling rider Abigail Legg said most teams

A LITTLE ABOUT LITTLE 500 Underdog Delta Tau Delta won in 2012 to beat the Cutters’ five-year winning streak in the men’s race. Men’s teams race for 200 laps on Bill Armstong Stadium’s cinder track, completing a total of 50 miles. Women’s teams complete 100 laps. Students must be in undergraduate studies and have a GPA of 2.0 or better to be eligible.

don’t treat it like one. “We train about six days a week,” Legg said. “We change our diets around Little Five. We change our class schedules around Little Five. “You’re part of something so much bigger than yourself and much bigger than just a bike race in April.”

IU men's soccer players hold their trophy as they scream Dec. 9 after the NCAA Men's Soccer Championship Game. IU won 1-0.

STARS ALIGN IU men’s soccer team battles through uneasy tournament for 8th national title BY MICAH MCVICKER mmmcvick@indiana.edu

Again clinging to a precarious 1-0 lead, in front of a significantly pro-Indiana crowd, IU’s eighth national championship was preserved by mere inches of a goalpost. Georgetown’s best opportunity to tie the score came in the penultimate minute, as defender Tommy Muller’s header bounced off the post to senior goalkeeper Luis Soffner’s left. Soffner claimed the ball off one bounce, and the Hoosiers prevailed 1-0 to complete their quest for eight. They won with defense. IU finished atop the conference with Penn State, allowing 18 goals during the season. But because the Nittany Lions missed the NCAA Tournament, the Hoosiers played seven more games than Penn State, including five NCAA Tournament matches. Soffner set a career high with 12 shutouts, including three in a row to conclude the tournament. Throughout the entire second

half, he had Georgetown students talking to him from their seats 10 yards behind goal. “We said it all along we had to be very good defensively,” IU Coach Todd Yeagley said Dec. 9. “That is from front to back, and with Luis and his growth, what he’s given us is outstanding. He gave our team so much calm and composure and confidence.” But the Hoosiers entered the tournament tentatively — they had lost three of five matches to end the season. They were in as the No. 16 seed. In each of Yeagley’s first two seasons, the Hoosiers earned a first-round bye, won their second-round game and lost their Sweet 16 match to the team that went on to claim the national championship. “You can always go back and look at things could’ve, should’ve happened,” Soffner said Nov. 13. “Right now, we’re at a point where we try to put everything in the past. We’re just more excited that we got a first-round bye.” The Hoosiers cleared that

18 • Traditions and Spirit • Spring/Summer 2013

hurdle with a 2-1 win at Notre Dame, avenging a loss earlier in the season. “I’m proud of this team and the way we fought,” sophomore forward Eriq Zavaleta said. “We knew we had to play good to beat a good Notre Dame team. We knew it, came out and played one of the better games I’ve ever seen this team play.” Three games later, IU celebrated winning it all in Hoover, Ala. IU’s championship earned Division I Coach of the Year honors for Yeagley, as named by Soccer America. Leading a team and legacy rejuvenated by father and former Coach Jerry Yeagley, Todd said he appreciated the honor. “This is a reflection of what the team was able to accomplish,” Todd Yeagley said Jan. 8. “It’s a program award.” IU fans far outnumbered fans of the other three national semifinalists. Fans from Creighton, Maryland and Georgetown were largely lost in a sea of red, as Hoosier fans — the Hoosier Army — had made the trip to Hoover.

After the success, Zavaleta decided to skip his junior and senior seasons. On Jan. 17, the Seattle Sounders selected him 10th overall in the 2013 Major League Soccer SuperDraft. But IU still has great depth at forward, as sophomores Femi Hollinger-Janzen, Andrew Oliver, Richard Ballard and Kyle Sparks have opportunities to win the starting job. On Jan. 3, IU announced the addition of sophomore midfielder Dylan Mares to help fill Zavaleta’s role. The Hoosiers will also have to replace Soffner and senior defender Caleb Konstanski. Though both were drafted, Konstanski tweeted on Jan. 30 that he “hung up the boots.” Nevertheless, the Hoosiers return all but three major contributors from last year’s team. The Twitter hashtag “Q49” has appeared early, signaling a clear quest to win a ninth national championship, a goal well within reach for the 2013-14 squad. Source • Campus Visitors Guide


BEHIND THE

WAT SHOT Watford wins ESPY for buzzer beater BY JOE POPELY jpopely@indiana.edu

“Unbelievable! Unbelievable! Can’t believe it!” That was ESPN’s Dick Vitale’s reaction when IU senior forward Christian Watford hit a buzzer-beating 3-pointer — now popularly known by Hoosier fans as the Wat Shot — to knock off eventual national champion Kentucky, 73-72, in front of a packed Assembly Hall crowd Dec. 10, 2011. Watford’s clutch shot gave IU the win against the No. 1 team in the nation at the time, but his shot helped IU basketball to another type of win: an ESPY. The Wat Shot was voted ESPN’s Play of the Year at the ESPYs in July 2012, further immortalizing the moment Hoosier fans felt like their program was back

following the Kelvin Sampson debacle of 2008 and three straight seasons of futility. “It’s just indescribable,” Watford said after the game. “All I know is I saw Verdell (Jones III) driving, and I just tried to loop behind him. He did a great job of finding me, and I knocked down the shot.” With less than six seconds remaining in the game, Jones took the inbound pass and quickly dribbled up the court, using a Cody Zeller screen in the back court to make it past mid court. Jones then dribbled a few steps inside the 3-point line on the left wing, absorbed his defender, spun and passed to a trailing Watford. A wide open Watford rose and knocked down the shot, sending the crimson-clad crowd into a court-storming frenzy.

IU basketball players celebrate after then-junior forward Christian Watford guaranteed a Hoosier victory against No. 1 Kentucky on Dec. 10, 2011, with a buzzer-beating 3-pointer.

The shot — and IU Head Coach Tom Crean’s astonished reaction — has been immortalized in multiple YouTube videos and montages. The play was selected by fans, who voted on 16 plays in a bracket-style competition though multiple rounds of voting. Against the Wildcats that night, Watford finished with 20 points, including 4-of-6 3-pointers, and grabbed five rebounds. For the 2012 season,

Watford averaged 12.6 points, 5.8 rebounds and 43.7 percent shooting in 28.4 minutes per game. He shot more than 43 percent from beyond the arc, 41.6 percent from the floor and 81.5 percent from the line. The now-rejuvenated team was preseason No. 1 for the 2013 season, and the excitement attracted ESPN to Bloomington for its College GameDay on Feb. 2. IU beat Michigan 81-73, upsetting the then-No. 1 team.

A cultural education BY RACHEL KRASNOW | rkrasnow@indiana.edu

IU’s African American Arts Institute strives to offer students an opportunity not only to earn school credit but also to obtain a cultural education. The AAAI promotes AfricanAmerican culture and offers three distinct ensembles for students to participate in — IU Soul Revue, African American Dance Company and the African American Choral Ensemble. Charles Sykes, executive director of the AAAI, said it is the first program to specialize in African American music and also offers course credit for performance. “You can’t find another one like it, as far as I know,” Sykes said. “It’s the only of its kind.” Sykes said this is appealing to students because they can take part in something they are interested in, like music or dance, while earning credit toward graduation.

He added that the arts institute employs a number of graduate and undergraduate students to work with the ensembles. “Each one of the ensembles has one or more associate instructors that help with musical arrangements,” he said. Participating students major in various areas, including music, arts administration, telecommunications and journalism. Whatever their studies, many participants see musical success and fame after leaving the institute’s ensembles. Late alumnus Gabriel Paige, who performed with the African American Dance Ensemble, had a part in movies such as “Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me,” and Soul Revue alumnus

Isaiah Sanders was a keyboardist for Stevie Wonder. Nathanael Fareed Mahluli, former Soul Revue director, said the group performs a wide range of black popular music. He said this includes a lot of Motown, as well as music from artists such as Beyoncé, Mary J. Blige, Natalie Cole and Ella Fitzgerald. Mahluli said it is important for people to realize that being in this type of ensemble takes a lot of time and dedication. “It takes an amazing amount of discipline to keep up your ability to perform,” Mahluli said. “It’s challenging to try social interaction and keep up the teamwork and entertain a goal.” Mahluli also said this kind of work ethic is vital when perform-

ing before big names like The Temptations, for whom the Soul Revue opened in 2009. It also opened for James Brown when he came to the IU Auditorium in 2006, and the African American Choral Ensemble opened for Ray Charles the same year. Sykes said the AAAI is a way for a student to delve deeper into something he or she is interested in, even just for the joy of performing. “We’re living in a world with the opportunity to interact across racial boundaries,” Sykes said. “For students not planning to become performing artists but want to continue performing in school, they can have this opportunity but don’t have to be concerned with their degree.” Source • Campus Visitors Guide

Hoosiers need not look beyond campus to find a theater featuring international, independent and documentary films and opportunities to meet filmmakers. IU Cinema, founded in 2011, has worked with the film industry, University departments and schools to create an “art house” moviegoing experience. Oscar-nominated German

director Werner Herzog and independent filmmaker John Sayles are among the talent IU Cinema has brought to campus. The first two years have seen other such successes, and audience members should look forward to more distinctive and valuable opportunities in 2013, IU Cinema Director Jon Vickers said. “Some of the things we’re starting to build are a couple of

conferences or mini-festivals,” Vickers said. “We’re going to be home to Orphans Midwest in the fall. It’s an academic program, with screenings, that supports and explores the relevance of orphaned films — films that have never been screened. It’s a highprofile symposium. “Another is an interesting and fun festival called Slapsticon,” he said. “It’s three and a half days of slapstick films. We might be the future home for that from here on out.” Every IU Cinema screening and event is open to the public. The cinema receives some of its budget from the University, so Vickers said people and students especially should be aware of the tremendous value offered. “The majority of events are free to students,” Vickers said. “The public pays nothing, too, for more than half of the events.” He said the cinema’s success is due in part to its efforts staying academically relevant. The cinema was founded after IU President Michael McRobbie recognized film studies at the University needed a place to live. “We’ve very quickly become

academically relevant with our programs and partnerships,” he said. “We’re also building a really strong national reputation.” Kathryn Bigelow, Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorcese are among the filmmakers invited to visit IU Cinema in 2013, Vickers said. Corresponding with big-name Hollywood filmmakers and directors isn’t easy though, IU Cinema Business Manager Carla Cowden said. “We have a very small staff,” Cowden said. “We have three full-time staff and a number of students, some of whom are volunteers. Our success is contingent on everyone’s enthusiasm for film.” The cinema exceeded original ticket sale expectations by selling more than 90,000 tickets in two years, according to a press release. Combined with dozens of lectures and hundreds of partnered screenings, the cinema has proven to be a worthy endeavor, Vickers said. “People are always impressed with what they see,” he said. “They can’t believe what’s happening at Indiana.”

Bookstore mural honors IU legends BY SARAH BOYUM sboyum@indiana.edu

The outside wall of T.I.S. College Bookstore is now a 30-foothigh and 100-foot-wide canvas. T.I.S. collaborated with Nashville, Ind., residents Kara Barnard and Jody Bonifield to create a colorful mural that honors the legends and traditions of IU. The project, begun in July 2012 and finished for students returning for fall semester that year, caused inquiries from customers and passerby. “It’s funny to watch traffic driving down Third Street,” said Paul Williams, supply manager and buyer at T.I.S. “They’ll be driving by and do a double-take.” This isn’t the first mural painted on the side of the bookstore. The previous one, completed in 1995, lasted about 15 years. Weather and a water leak caused the mural to deteriorate. A painter was hired to scrape off the remains and paint the wall a light gray to match the rest of the building, and since then the water leak has been fixed. Williams was a big fan of the first mural. In February, he helped plan the mural project, suggesting Barnard, his banjo instructor, as a possible painter. Barnard, owner of Weed Patch Music Company in Nashville, teaches music lessons to more than 50 students. Williams approached her about the project, and Barnard 24 • Around Town • Spring/Summer 2013

agreed to do it with Bonifield, owner of Muddy Boots Café and the Pine Room Tavern in Nashville. The bookstore owners and artists agreed on the theme of IU legends. The mural, on the wall facing the parking lot, is split into four separate sections. The first section, from left to right, represents components of music and art. The second section focuses on sports, featuring the basketball banners, fans and notable IU athletic coaches. Education is represented in the third section, showing textbooks, school supplies and the face of Alfred Kinsey, founder of the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction. The last section shows the iconic Sample Gates at the entrance of IU. Herman B Wells is featured walking away from the gates as a biker passes behind him in the background. “We think we put together a real nice depiction of IU,” Williams said. “We put some people on there that deserve the recognition.” To create the mural, the artists made sketches, projected them onto construction-grade paper and cut out giant stencils. The artists then placed the stencils on the wall and used them to paint the four sections. Accustomed to condensing a large area into a small-scale map, Barnard blew up objects to fit

them on the large wall. On most days, Barnard and Bonifield began painting at 3 p.m. and worked until 9 p.m. “A lot of kids stop by and chat with us while we work,” Barnard said during the painting process. “And many have never heard of these people.” Kevin Theile, member of the

T.I.S. management team, said that on a simple level, the bookstore and the artists wanted to create art for residents, students and visitors alike to enjoy. “On a deeper level,” Theile said, “we wanted to capture the essence of IU and Bloomington.”
