Letter from the Provost, Lauren Robel Welcome to Indiana University-Bloomington! Whether you are in town for a campus visit or conference, a sporting event or lecture, or for one of the many arts events and festivals for which IU and the city of Bloomington are known, I hope you’ll take the time to explore our campus, which in February 2017 was named one of the most beautiful campuses in the U.S. by Travel & Leisure Magazine. Stroll through our tree-lined grounds, surrounded by majestic buildings made of limestone from quarries in Bloomington and the surrounding region. You’ll find plenty of open walking paths and green spaces, such as the IU Arboretum next to the historic Herman B Wells Library and the Global and International Studies Building, or Dunn’s Woods, adjacent to the Media School in Franklin Hall, just
through the iconic Sample Gates at the intersection of Kirkwood and Indiana avenues. While you’re here, take some time to see the many beautiful pieces of public art throughout campus. Take a selfie with bronze sculptures of important figures in IU Bloomington’s history, starting with famed World War II journalist Ernie Pyle outside Franklin Hall. Next along the path is the statue of former IU president and chancellor Herman B Wells outside of Maxwell Hall, followed by Hoosier singer-songwriter Hoagy Carmichael, whose bronze form sits at his piano outside our renowned IU Cinema. Also look for a 10,000-pound limestone brain sculpture in front of our Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences and the iconic sculpture of Venus in Showalter Fountain in front of the IU Auditorium. I invite you to enjoy our many cultural centers,
museums and performance spaces. Each year the IU Auditorium brings world-famous performers and Broadway productions to Bloomington. The IU Cinema is one of the Midwest’s premier venues for independent films and has drawn such filmmakers and actors as Ava DuVernay, Glenn Close and Jonathan Banks. The Jacobs School of Music and the Department of Theatre, Drama and Contemporary Dance present student-run performances year-round, including the collaborative Hammer & Nail concert each spring. The Grunwald Gallery is the region’s top venue for contemporary art, and often features student-curated exhibitions, while the Mathers Museum of World Cultures is one of the world’s leading anthropological museums. We are so proud of our beautiful campus and our place in
the vibrant, diverse Bloomington community. For nearly 200 years, IU has called Bloomington home, and we hope you feel at home during your time here. Lauren Robel, Provost and Executive Vice President

DEFINING HOOSIER * * n. [hoo-zher] a native or inhabitant of Indiana or the IU family By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@indiana.edu | @sarahverschoor
The bright crimson trident that represents IU is symbolic of the Indiana Hoosiers, but many wonder, what exactly is a “Hoosier?” There is no consensus on the word’s origin, and its meaning still provokes debate today. According to the University’s website, a Hoosier is not a mascot, animal, a bird or a mythical creature of any description. “A Hoosier is a proud member of the IU family,” the site said. On campus, the Hoosier identity encompasses anyone and everyone, from athletes to professors to musicians. While IU’s campus is composed of many people from around the country and world, the Hoosier identity is the common factor among students and faculty alike. Indiana natives have referred to themselves and their neighbors as Hoosiers for decades. However, just this January, the
U.S. Government Publishing Office officially declared Indiana residents to be Hoosiers. The name Hoosiers was selected instead of previously used terms such as Indianans. “I’m glad that the federal government has agreed to our change and will now call us what we call ourselves, Hoosiers,” Sen. Joe Donnelly, D-Indiana, said in a video about the name change. “It’s been a long time coming.” On Jan. 12., Donnelly and Sen. Todd Young, R-Indiana, announced the new official name to the public. Young said the Hoosier identity is who we are, not just the title of a classic movie or a name for IU athletic teams. However, the idea of a Hoosier and where the word came from is unclear. Hoosier first became a part of the vernacular around the 1830s, according to the Indiana Historical Society, and in 1848 Hoosier was defined by Bartlett’s Dictionary of Americanisms as someone
residing in Indiana. Jeffrey Graf of the Reference Services Department at Herman B Wells Library compiled a report titled “The Word Hoosier” detailing the history of the term . Hoosier used to mean “hick” or “unskilled fellow,” according to Graf’s report, which was last updated in July 2016. Graf points to Jacob Piatt Dunn as an early expert on the Hoosier namesake. Dunn served as the secretary of the Indiana Historical Society and published three articles in the early 1900s. In Dunn’s studies of the etymology of “Hoosier,” he found three common characteristics of it, Graf said in “The Word Hoosier.” Hoosier was used to describe unsophisticated people, had a Southern origin and was intended to be applied to the people of Indiana, though there is some conflict over the third point. “The third characteristic, he finds, is true for many of the explanations, but untrue of the
“I’m glad that the federal government has agreed to our change and will now call us what we call ourselves, Hoosiers. It’s been a long time coming.” Joe Donnelly, Indiana Senator
word itself, for it had long been used in the south as a derogatory term for a rough countryman,” Graf wrote in the report. “His correspondents assured him, too, that the term continued in its use and meaning at the time of his research, without reference to Indiana.” While there may not be a definitive conclusion anytime soon on where “Hoosier” is from and what it truly means, students will continue to cheer “Hoo, Hoo, Hoo, Hoosiers,” at basketball games, football games and many other sporting events. Hoosier pride, too, will likely remain unchanged.

IU Visitor Information Center ushers visitors onto the IU campus. Where to get your IU visit started and how to make the most of your time here. By Emily Eckelbarger eaeckelb@umail.iu.edu | @emeckelbarger
Although the Sample Gates are typically considered to be the doorway to IU, just across the street is an equally important doorway: the IU Visitor Information Center. The Kirkwood Ave. office has the tours, pamphlets and people to make your trip to IU and Bloomington a success. Junior Christian Shoulders, a Visitor Guide at the Visitor Center, doles out advice on what to do and where to go during your visit to IU and the Bloomington area. What can people find at the IU Visitor Information Center? We actually have a few tours. We have a Sunday tour, which is for prospective students. You can schedule a tour during the week. We’ll have different middle school tours or tours for people who aren’t perspective students, like undergraduate students and graduate student tours. If people come in, we can direct them on their own self-guided tours, or we can direct them to different places around Bloomington or on campus. What are the must-see sites on the IU campus? Sample Gates is a great place to start off because it’s the opening of campus. You just get that feeling of looking at campus and going in. Plus, it’s tradition to take pictures there when you come here. Then, walking through and going to see the Herman B Wells statue. That’s also a tradition, going to shake his hand. The culture centers are really nice, too. The people there are very welcoming. They want people to come in all the time and they’re always offering little things to do. Where would you recommend taking kids to keep them entertained?
MATT RASNIC | IDS
The IU Visitor Information Center is located at 503 E. Kirkwood Ave., and online at visitorcenter.indiana.edu. The office gives tours on Sundays, schedules tours during the week and connects visitors with campus and community events throughout the year.
Probably anywhere that’s outdoors. Like the Arboretum—it’s a big green space. It’s pretty. You can have a picnic or chill out or just enjoy the scenery. Kirkwood [Ave.] in general is a fun place to go with the family, just looking in all the different shops.
If someone wants to do a something off the beaten path, what should they do? Definitely the lakes. A lot of people don’t go to the lakes either because they’re far or they don’t know about them. But the lakes are really fun. There’s three of them: Griffy, Monroe and Lemon Lakes.
What brings people to Bloomington? Probably the beauty. The campus is just gorgeous. The people are welcoming. That was the biggest thing coming here—I felt like I belonged.
If someone has a longer visit in Bloomington, what should they do? Come to the Visitor’s Center and we’ll have different events that are going on around Bloomington and on campus.
We always have different plays or movie showings on campus, so that’s fun. If a person has never been to Bloomington, what would you want them to know? Wear comfortable shoes, because there’s a lot of walking. Prepare for the weather, because it’s always strange. Be open to do anything at any time because there’s always something going on. It might not be something you planned on doing, and then you just walk up on it and you’re in it.

Hoosiers chase bowl game success By Austin Ghiradelli aghirard@indiana.edu | @a_ghirardelli
In 120 seasons, the Hoosier football team has been to a total of 11 bowl games, and currently has a 3-8 all-time bowl game record. As the Hoosiers come off two consecutive bowl game appearances, the team will look to reach and win bowl games under new head coach Tom Allen. Here’s a look at their bowl game history. January 1, 1968: Rose Bowl The 1968 Rose Bowl featured two 9-1 teams, Indiana and the No.1 ranked USC Trojans. IU was defeated by a score of 14-3. USC tailback, O.J. Simpson, was named the Rose Bowl Player of the Game after scoring both touchdowns for the Trojans. December 21, 1979: Holiday Bowl Eleven seasons after IU’s first bowl game appearance, the Hoosiers returned to the postseason to take on the 11-0 BYU Cougars. Under then-head coach Lee Corso, IU won its first bowl game by upsetting BYU in a thriller that ended 38-37. December 31, 1986: All-American Bowl IU returned to bowl season just in time for the 1986 All-American Bowl. The Hoosiers
squared off against the Seminoles from Florida State. Indiana was defeated by a score of 27-13. January 2, 1988: Peach Bowl Part of the 1987 bowl game season, Indiana faced the Tennessee Volunteers in the first ever meeting between the two schools. This was Tennessee’s 29th overall bowl and IU’s fourth. The Volunteers won by a score of 27-22. December 28, 1988: Liberty Bowl Less than a year removed from the team’s last bowl game loss, IU was back again for the 1988 Liberty Bowl against the South Carolina Gamecocks. In the first ever meeting between these teams, IU came away victorious by a score of 34-10. December 29, 1990: Peach Bowl The Hoosiers made their second appearance in the Peach Bowl, IU started the year 4-0, but only finished with six wins. Indiana played Auburn for the first time in school history, losing to the Tigers 27-23. December 31, 1991: Copper Bowl The Hoosiers regrouped from their four-point loss to Auburn the year prior to make back-toback bowl game appearances in 1990 and 1991. Indiana shutout the Baylor Bears 24-0. The 1991 Copper Bowl is IU’s last bowl win.

It would be another 14 years before IU returned to a bowl game, while Virginia Tech went on a steak of 23 consecutive bowl game appearances.

December 31, 2007: Insight Bowl After a 7-5 season, the Hoosiers earned a spot in the 2007 Insight Bowl. IU played the Oklahoma State Cowboys of the Big 12 Conference. Indiana was playing only six months after the passing of its previous head coach, Terry Hoeppner. The Hoosiers were
December 28, 2016: Foster Farms Bowl Another 6-6 season brought IU to back-to-back bowl games for the first time since the 1990 and 1991 seasons. The 2016 Foster Farms Bowl featured Indiana and the Utah Utes from the Pac12 conference. The Hoosiers fell to the Utes 26-24.
December 26, 2015: Pinstripe Bowl IU went into the 2015 Pinstripe Bowl with a 6-6 record. The Hoosiers played the Duke Blue Devils in Yankee Stadium. In a close contest, Duke would eventually win 44-41 in overtime, Duke’s first bowl victory in 54 years.

Film director Abbas Kiarostami answers interview questions about his recent work in filmmaking during the "Abbas Kiarostami in Indiana" event April 7, 2014 at the IU Cinema. The IU Cinema is home to both lectures and an eclectic number of films.
Film venues from world-class to affordable By Jesse Pasternack jpastern@indiana.edu | @jessepasternack
Indiana University is a rich and vibrant place to see movies. Its two largest venues — the IU Cinema and the Whittenberger Auditorium in the Indiana Memorial Union — have robust offerings to satisfy both hardcore cinephiles and casual movie fans. The recently renovated IU Cinema is among the best-equipped theaters in the Midwest. It has a THX certified sound system and its variety of projectors allows for screenings of movies shot on 16mm and 35mm film as well as those captured digitally. And that’s not to mention the murals by Thomas Hart Benton that adorn its walls. The programming for the IU Cinema is eclectic, and generally appeals to serious film buffs.
They have recurring series such as International Art House and National Theater Live that reflect the more contemporary side of the arts. But each semester also has a signatures series that honors cinema’s past; past series have shown everything from the films of Elvis Presley to works of the Japanese anime director Hayao Miyazaki. The IU Cinema is also deeply committed to bringing Hollywood legends to campus. Every semester, The IU Cinema does a program called The Jorgenson Film Guest Filmmaker Lecture Series. It gives audiences the chance to ask questions of such great artists as “Hoosiers” screenwriter Angelo Pizzo and Academy Award-winning actor Meryl Streep. Another popular guest was the legendary director Werner Herzog. If you’re visiting and feeling cinematically adventurous, the
IU Cinema is the place to go. Make sure to check its website, cinema.indiana.edu, for shows and times. The other major venue for watching movies at Indiana University is the Whittenberger Auditorium. It shows free movies every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. These movies are typically popular films headed for a home video release or streaming services. While you can catch blockbusters like “Doctor Strange” and “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” at the Whittenberger Auditorium, you can also occasionally see films before they come to the AMC 11 and 12 theaters. Some of those films were the Andy Samberg-starring mockumentary “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” and Jordan Peele’s woke horror thriller “Get Out.” In addition to these venues,
it is good to keep your eyes and ears open for different opportunities. A great screening of “Batman” (1989) with producer Michael Uslan took place in the commons of Franklin Hall in the spring. For Valentine’s Day, IU College Democrats showed “Southside with You” in Hodge Hall and gave students cookies from Baked! Keep your eyes peeled on campus and it shouldn’t be hard to find all kinds of opportunities to see films beyond IU’s two main theaters. Indiana University’s movie watching subculture is a lot like Indiana University itself. It has great resources and is fantastic at connecting students with similar interests. The same goes for the people visiting those students. If you’re a movie fan, there are few better places for you to be.

Students, professionals share stages at IU By Clark Gudas ckgudas@iu.edu | @This_isnt_Clark
When it comes to theater at IU, there’s no shortage of events going on year-round. From comedies and dramas to opera, ballet and musicals, explore what IU has to offer while visiting. Seating more than 3,000 people, the IU Auditorium is where world-class productions are held. Founded in 1941, the Auditorium is one of campus’ premier stages for concerts and musicals. Its 2017-18 calendar lists 14 productions, including shows such as “The Sound of Music,” “The Wizard of Oz” and “Kinky Boots.” Ticket pre-orders and subscriptions make securing a seat ahead of time easy. For musical productions, the IU Musical Arts Center on Jordan Avenue is the nucleus where big operas, dance performances and other music-related events of the year take place. Nothing is held back from the classic musical theater experience — the velvet interior, state-of-the-art acoustic design and a towering, three-deck seating area all match the timeless music. The 2017-18 season is pulling some big names into the limelight, such as “The Nutcracker,”

“West Side Story,” and “Don Giovanni.” All of these shows are provided through the Jacobs School of Music, one of the top music schools in the country. A show at the MAC is a great opportunity to spend a night out with family and see some of the best musical and stage performances to be found on any college campus. IU also offers a breadth of student and faculty productions at the Norvell Theatre Center. Located at 275 North Jordan (on
the far side of the same building as the IU Auditorium), the center houses three different stages for around-the-year shows. Professionals act alongside undergraduates to put on classics and new material. Sit a few feet away from the action at the WellsMetz Theatre and Studio Theatre, or enjoy a traditional setup at the Ruth N. Halls Theatre. The Norvelle Theatre Center presents a full lineup this coming year. Classic dramas such as Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar” run on the same stages as newer
works, such as Mark Hollman’s “Urinetown.” In terms of contemporary dance, the Winter Dance Concert in February is produced by IU faculty and special guests, and “New Moves” is an entirely student-produced choreography showcase. Through a range of venues, IU offers a diverse mix of stage productions for students and visitors. Whether it’s world-class entertainment or student run productions, finding a show is only as difficult as deciding which ones you’d like to see.

House of hearts Romantic history of Rose Well House lives on through stories By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

T
he IU Bucket List includes a variety of campus-driven activities recommended for incoming students. “At night, lie on the ground and watch the lights change on the side of the IU Art Museum.” “Look at the stars from the Kirkwood Observatory.” “Kiss someone special at the Rose Well House at midnight.” From the latter list item stems a long line of stories, and from that line another, the physical line of a few couples waiting to kiss under the gazebo at midnight on Valentine’s Day. Each year, young couples will wait by the structure near the center of campus to kiss their significant others under the roof of the Well House. The walls of that shelter have seen countless kisses and proposals over the years, and the tradition began with the reveal of the house in 1908. Carrie Schwier, outreach and public services archivist for the Indiana University Archives, said the historical reminiscence is possibly one of the reasons the

Top Couples kiss in the Rose Well House on Valentine’s Day in 2008. Through its history, it has been a romantic campus location. It is a meeting place where couples often get engaged. Kissing at the house at midnight is a rite of passage for IU students. Bottom Students sit in the Rose Well House in September 1958. The tradition of kissing under the structure was, at that time, about 50 years old.
kissing tradition has lasted more than 100 years. “In particular, I think it’s probably the nostalgia of it, the romance, the sense that, too, it’s been a traditional for generations,” Schwier said. “For a lot of students, their parents and grandparents have possibly
gone to university here, so maybe they’ve heard stories from parents or grandparents who were meeting up at the Rose Well House for dates.” A paper written by Carson Smith, who was a student at IU in 1973, delved into the folklore and tradition behind what was at
that time dubbed the Beta Well House. His paper described the established location as a premiere kissing spot for young couples. “Young women are still ‘becoming coeds,’ getting ‘pinned’ and being asked to marry under the shade of the Well House,” Smith wrote. The Rose Well House was named after student Theodore F. Rose, a member of the class of 1875 who presented the house to the school, according to Smith’s paper. The gazebo was initially built in 1908 as a shelter for drinking water, and anyone who visits the space today notices the drinking fountains located in the middle of the shelter. These serve also a reminder of its original purpose to distribute water as a fire cistern. “The arches in the Rose Well House actually came from IU’s old campus,” Schwier said. “When the original campus building burned down, they took those parts of it and made the Rose Well House. It’s kind of a mix of the old and the new.” The space gained the

supplemental name of “Beta Well House” because of the structure’s design, the shape of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity pin, symbolizing Rose’s brotherhood within the group. The traditions of the kiss under the Rose Well House were, at the time of Smith’s writing, most well known by members of Greek houses on campus. For years after the establishment of the tradition, the label of coed, a female student at a coeducational school, was designated only to women who had the experience of being kissed inside the house, according to an IDS article written by Joyce Lakey in 1950. Schwier said that the Rose Well kiss, unlike some of the other enduring IU traditions, seems to have been through the history more closely tied to defining that student’s role. “I can’t think of any others that I’ve heard of any others where they say, ‘If you graduate without doing this, you’re not a student,” Schwier said. “It’s interesting that it’s mostly directed at female students, I think it’s very telling.” The rules to becoming an official coed in the ‘50s dictated female students should meet a romantic partner at Rose Wells at midnight and kiss them under the shelter. “The embrace, of course, must last for the duration of the twelve bells,” Lakey wrote. The midnight tradition held special significance back when women attending the school had a strict 11 p.m. curfew. The act then was not just romantic but also a risk of repercussions if the lovers were caught, according to another story written by Michelle
Abels for the IDS in 1995. The popularity of the tradition decreased according to multiple articles written in the 1960s, stating that the outdated tradition was no longer carrying the same significance in the minds of young students. The 1995 story by Abels found that women were still not considered “real students” unless they had been kissed under the house at the stroke of midnight on any night. The piece acknowledged that, over the years, Valentine’s Day evolved into a popular date choice because of the significance as the day celebrating love. Smith concluded his paper by asking why the tradition proliferated even into the mid-1970s. “Part of it is taking amusement in the practices of the past,” Smith wrote. “But perhaps the best reason for the folklore of the Well House is the same reason for which it was created – it serves to bring young couples together.” What is most interesting about the enduring myths, such as that of the Rose Well House and other locations on campus, are the stories, which IU Archives has been working to uncover through oral histories, Schwier said. “I’m always fascinated about the romantic stories that come along with it,” Schwier said. “Sometimes we’ll interview couples that went through the university, so it’s usually people who are my grandparents’ age, so it’s always really endearing to hear these stories where their couples talk about their early relationships and how they were built on campus.”

IU ATHLETIC FACILITIES Basketball: Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall 1001 E. 17th St. Originally opened in 1971, Assembly Hall has been considered home to the IU men’s and women’s basketball teams for nearly 50 years. Inside the hall is Branch McCracken Court, named for IU’s coach through most of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. In 2013, alumna Cindy Simon Skjodt donated an Athletic Department-record $40 million to the renovation of Assembly Hall. In 2016, construction was completed and the building was renamed for her. Also in Assembly Hall is the new Mark Cuban Center for Sports Media and Technology, comprised of state-of-the-art sports media technology for athletes, students and staff, the “Spirit of ’76” Club and Ken Nunn Champions Plaza.
Baseball: Bart Kaufman Field 1878 N. Fee Lane Construction on the 2,500-seat stadium began in 2012 and was completed for the 2013 season. The field is entirely turf, so there’s no grass or sand to maintain. It was host to the NCAA Regionals in 2013 and 2014 and hosted the 2017 Big Ten Tournament. It was named for former baseball player and principal donor Bart Kaufman, the chairman of Kaufman Financial Corp. Football: Memorial Stadium 701 E. 17th St. The home of IU football isn’t just a home for Coach Tom Allen’s boys but also the entire athletic department. As part of the “For All” bicentennial campaign, Memorial Stadium will lose its open space structure and the south end zone will be enclosed to complete the “Circle of Excellence.” The new facility will contain the Memorial Stadium Excellence Academy with resources for student-athletes. Volleyball, Wrestling: University Gym 2721 E. 10th St. The University Gym is home to IU’s volleyball and wrestling teams. Though built in 1963 as part of the School of Education, IU Athletics seized it as its own for the gym and other facilities inside. The gymnasium saw improvements throughout the 1990s and 2000s but will soon become obsolete as a plan for a new indoor arena for the sports was announced with the “For All” bicentennial campaign. Tennis: IU Tennis Center 1873 N. Fee Lane The IU Tennis Center features both indoor and outdoor courts for the teams to practice on regardless of the weather outside. The outdoor facility has 10 courts and seating for more than 600, while the indoor facility has eight courts, locker rooms and seating for 300. FOR MORE, SEE ATHLETICS, PAGE 26

IU Athletics fast facts Looking at three of IU’s premier athletic programs The Indiana basketball program was the last team to complete an undefeated season with a national championship. Since the postseason era of college basketball began in 1938, only eight Division I schools have won a national championship with an undefeated record. The last team to do so were the Hoosiers who went 32-0 in 1976. In head coach Bobby Knight’s fifth year, IU started the season ranked No. 1 and entered the NCAA Tournament as the No. 1 seed before completing the perfect season.
their respective countries of Canada and Slovenia. Divers Michael Hixon, Jessica Parratto and Amy Cozad competed for the United States while James Conner represented Australia. The group was dubbed the Hoosiers’ 11. IU soccer has appeared in 41 NCAA Tournaments in its 43 years of existence. Since the team was formed in 1973, Indiana has had the most consistent and successful program in country. In the past 44 years, the Hoosiers have won more National Championships than any other Division I school with eight. They also have had more wins, College Cup appearances and a higher winning percentage in both the regular and post-season than any other team.

Dip your toes. If you happen to be exploring campus on a warmer day or night, make a stop at the Showalter Fountain, located in the heart of campus. The fountain was created by the Robert Laurent and the Nicci Foundry in Rome and shipped to Bloomington in 1958. Upon completion, the fountain was dedicated in 1961. So, go ahead and dip your toes in the water on a warm day.

Before heading off campus, take a picture in front of the Sample Gates, the iconic entryway into IU’s campus. IU was named the most Instagrammed place in Indiana in 2016, so be sure to Instagram your new memory and geo-tag it. Nick’s English Hut and “Sink the Biz” Nick’s English Hut, located on Kirkwood Avenue, is an English-style restaurant and a staple for students, alumni and residents. For visitors 21 and over, “Sink the Biz” is Nick’s signature drinking game and an IU tradition in itself. Players pour beer into a small cup floating in a metal bucket, trying not to sink it. The game has a long history that dates back to the 1970s. Have a picnic. Grab a blanket and a couple sandwiches or some takeout food from Kirkwood or Fourth Street and have yourself a picnic in Dunn Meadow along the Jordan River. While Dunn Meadow has been the stage for rallies, festivals, demonstrations, it offers the perfect backdrop for an afternoon snack or lunch.

See the stars. If you happen to be visiting on a clear Wednesday night, be sure to visit the Kirkwood Observatory. You will have the opportunity to view stars and planets through the large telescope that peers out of the domed retractable roof. Before visiting, check their Twitter, @iuastro, or their online schedule, as viewings may be canceled due to weather.

Meet a legend. Scattered across campus sit three bronze men important to IU. Just off Jordan Avenue you will find Hoagy Carmichael playing a note on a large piano. Throughout the year, he may be adorned with flowers or scarves. Sit with Pulitzer Prizewinning journalist Ernie Pyle while he works on his next story just steps from Sample Gates and Franklin Hall. Finally, shake hands for good luck with former IU President Herman B Wells, located in the Old Crescent near Owen Hall.
7
Eat local. Take a walk down Kirkwood Avenue or around the courthouse to find a multitude of local restaurants serving delicious entrees. Grab breakfast from The Runcible Spoon, a gyro from the Trojan Horse or a plate of chicken tikki masala at Amrit India Restaurant. There is something for everyone.

Order dessert. After you eat, place an order at Baked! Of Bloomington, a popular bakery on Third Street that sells customizable fresh cookies with milk. While most bakeries require you to pick up your sugary treats, these cookies can be delivered straight to your door.

As a designated free speech space, this open field has been home to decades of marches, concerts, protests and historic moments. This is the history of
Dunn Meadow. In 1962, the IU Board of Trustees designated Dunn Meadow as the IU campus’ space for spontaneous free speech. This timeline shows just a glimpse of how different groups and cultures have used the meadow from 1962 to the present and how each expressed their own wishes and remembrances in a single, historical space. Access the complete timeline of Dunn Meadow at idsnews.com/dunnmeadow.

June 4, 1990 Middle East March Protesting the wave of violence in the Middle East, about 40 Palestinian and Arab students and their supporters marched from campus to the Bloomington Courthouse to show support for the intifada uprising in Israel.
Sept. 13, 2000 Bob Knight’s final speech An estimated 6,000 people crowded into Dunn Meadow, its surrounding sidewalks and roofs of nearby buildings to hear former IU basketball coach Bob Knight’s farewell speech. The coach had been fired two days earlier.
Nov. 5, 2003 Anti-Affirmative Action bake sale A group known as the Committee of Freedom set up shop for an anti-Affirmative Action bake sale, which charged different amounts for baked goods based upon a students race and gender.

hough the School of Journalism has dissolved and Ernie Pyle Hall is vacant, the legacy of the World War II journalist still lives on in Bloomington in the form of a bronze statue in front of the newly renovated Franklin Hall. Pyle, born in 1900 in Dana, Indiana, was a foreign correspondent who gained notability through his ability to tell stories of these faraway lands at war. Before he became Scripps-Howard’s most famous product, he was a student at IU.

physical and symbolic entryway to campus, the Sample Gates stand at the crossway of Kirkwood and Indiana avenues on the west side of campus. However, the gates are a relatively new addition to campus and at one point, that entry was not as welcoming. Edson Sample, who the gates are named after, said a one-way exit road was originally in front of Franklin Hall rather than the pathway and gates that are there now. Traffic signs reading “Do Not Enter” stood on either side of the road. Now the gates are more welcoming than the deterring traffic signs, Sample said. According to an article from the IU Library Archives by Carrie Schwier, the
process of erecting a gateway at the Kirkwood Avenue entrance to the campus began with a University Arch Fund, established by the classes of 1899-1902. However, after finding out that Theodore F. Rose, an IU alumnus and trustee, was interested in a similar project, the classes redirected funds to the purchasing of chimes for the Student Building. However, Rose found the design of the arches would further block the entrance to campus, so he eventually gave up the idea and directed his attention to the Rose Well House, a stone gazebo built as a major water source for campus, the article said. Newell Sanders proposed another gateway at Kirkwood in 1931 and submitted various designs for a possible entrance.
By Hannah Boufford hbouffor@umail.iu.edu | @hannahboufford
However, the Board of Trustees wanted to wait a little longer to create a gateway that would match other buildings on campus architecturally once the campus developed more. “The campus is really integrated in the terms of the aesthetics,” said James Capshew, university historian and professor in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science and Medicine. “There are really nice buildings, paths and things like that.” After different designs were submitted from Sanders and university architects Granger & Bollenbacher, Sanders withdrew his proposal for the gateway because a consensus could not be formed, according to the article. Others showed interest throughout the years in creating a gateway, including

Top Architectural firm Eggers and Higgens proposed a design for the gates in the 1960s. It became the final design for the limestone structure.

Theodore Skinner from the Indiana Works Progress Administration and university architects Eggers and Higgins. However, it was not until 1962 that the trustees approved a contract with Eggers and Higgins. This contract agreed to close off the traffic entrance at Kirkwood and Indiana Avenues and change the previous street into grassy areas with walking space. In 1966, Benjamin H. Long expressed an interest in erecting the gateway in memory of his parents. Eggers and Higgins also created a new, modern design, steering away from the original Gothic proposals. This new design created criticism from the donor, the trustees and Chancellor Herman B Wells, the article said. In 1968, the current design of the Sample Gates was settled on. However, the building of the gateway created opposition from students, staff and community members who believed funding the project was wasteful. Wells wrote to Long expressing his regret for the criticism, and Long responded with a
letter two weeks later saying he understood the gate could not proceed under the circumstances of criticism, the article said, with excerpts from the letter. The project was once again halted. Once criticism of the project settled down, Sample came forward with an interest to fund the gates and dedicate them to his parents, Louise Waite Sample and Kimsey Ownbey Sample Sr., in the 1980s. The gates were dedicated June 13, 1987. Sample’s parents were both present at the dedication ceremony, Sample said. Sample, now residing at Meadowood Retirement Community in Bloomington, did not grow up in town. He attended five different grade schools in four states, two schools in Memphis, Tennessee; one in New Orleans; one in St. Louis; and one in Fort Smith, Arkansas. However, Sample worked at the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aids at IU for 29 years. He started as the assistant director for a few years before becoming director. He estimates he had the director
position for 22 or 23 years. Sample said his desire to donate the gates came from the fact that the administration throughout his time at the University had been extremely supportive, and he wanted to give something back to the school. “He bleeds cream and crimson,” friend and member of the Media School Alumni Association Mary Dietz said. Even though students protested the gates up until, at and after the dedication ceremony, Sample said he committed to not withdrawing his money like Long did before him. He said one of the things that he likes most about the gates is that they are welcoming and bring people in instead of keeping them out. “The campus is this wonderful repository of associations,” Capshew said. “It’s a beautiful place, you can explore, you can meet people, you can have experiences in this place of beauty and memory.”

here is no real way to briefly tell the story of the Indiana Memorial Union. To do so would take an entire book, as proven by the several that have already been written on the subject. The building and its highly concentrated history are almost as famous among IU students as Herman B Wells himself. According to Nick Mitchell, an IMU payroll employee, it wasn’t uncommon to see him in the IMU’s barber shop in the ‘80s, as he had once gotten a haircut next to the famous IU president there. The Union itself was founded in 1909 by student John Wittenberger. The Union originally found its home in the Student Building. The Union was restricted to male students until 1954. Women students, instead, formed the Association of Women Students, an organi-

zation that performed similar functions. The IMU that has become so familiar to students wasn’t built until 1932, but even then, it only extended as far as the Starbucks currently found in on the west side of the IMU. Before this space held a Starbucks, it was the original hotel lobby
and front desk. Since its establishment and additions, the Union Hotel has made countless new stories for itself. It was a frequent place to stay for the Dalai when his brother was the head of the Tibetan Studies program in the 1980s. Even Eleanor Roosevelt stayed in the Union. The Kennedy family once came through the Union and used the Federal room one night. Jackie Kennedy loved the wallpaper so much that she had the very same artist remake the wallpaper in the White House. According to Tami Banks from the IMU Custodial Crew, there have been several guests so high-profile that dogs had to be brought in to sniff out bombs before the guest could stay in their room.

Celebrities, ghosts and time capsule letters found in IMU By Nick Castellini castelln@umail.iu.edu
The halls of the Indiana Memorial Union hold many myths, legends and rumors. Here is a brief list of odd but true things that have happened in the IMU. IU is the place to get married. The different teams working with the IMU put on around 250 weddings a year, according to Associate Director Mike Campbell. The IMU had a gun range. Sororities used to participate in shooting matches on occasion. It was meant for .22 caliber rifles and was closed down after it was deemed unhealthy due to the build-up of lead in the bullet trap. It was located in the far west wing of the building. The IMU was the nicest dance venue on campus. It was also the only real place to hold a dance on campus for some time after its construction. It’s the largest venue in Bloomington aside from the stadiums. Famous people come through the IMU all the time. People like Liberace, Steven Seagal, and Eleanor Roosevelt have been through the IMU. The list also includes the Kennedy family, Nick Offerman, the Dalai Lama, Elvis Presley, Maynard Ferguson, James Earl Jones, Macklemore, Adam Devine, Kevin Hart, Jay Leno, Maya Angelou, and many others. The escalators only go up. It’s a fact frequently forgotten by even the most seasoned veterans of the IMU. The uponly escalators are one of the many odd physical quirks of the building. There are plenty of ghost stories. Many are focused on the wing of the building containing the Federal Room. There have been teams of ghost hunters who have
ventured into the building late at night in search of paranormal activity. Alumni Hall has seen many forms. Alumni Hall used to be outfitted with medieval scenery for three weeks out of the year to host the IMU’s Madrigal Nights. These were elaborate feasts students could attend to be entertained by everything from jesters to the king’s court. Alumni Hall also hosted the appearance of the set of “The Wizard of Oz” for a while when the convention came to town. Today, Alumni Hall recently received an ornate organ that can occasionally be heard being practiced on. “The Union” is not the same as “the IMU”. A common mistake in nomenclature is to assume that the Union is the same thing as the IMU. The Union is a student organization founded in 1909 by John Whittenberger with the purpose of furthering student control of what happened around campus. The IMU is the building meant to house the Union and give all students a place to relax and stay. The IMU was built in 1932 as part of the Memorial Fund Drive. The IMU has given us messages from the past. When the old hotel lobby front desk was removed to construct what is now a Starbucks, a letter fell out from between the front desk and the wall. It had been encapsulated there since 1939. The letter tells a brief story of its writer who was a law student and employee at the front desk. The letter mentions at one point that “Chancellor Hitler intends on annexing Poland soon,” and he shares his fears of the turmoil in Europe. The full story can be found in the IU Archives.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 22 The IMU is also a place based in traditions. Sugar and Spice, one of the pastry and coffee shops in the IMU, has kept their same exact gingerbread recipe since 1950. The only change made to this tradition has been the addition of candy-striped pants to the gingerbread men in the winter in honor of the basketball season. There is also a fire that is always kept going in the South Lounge where studying and sleeping students can be found just across from Starbucks. Herman B Wells walked into the room one day and said that any student should always feel at home there and made it a rule to always have a fire lit there. There is even a particular process of preserving the same flame and transferring it to a remote location when the fire pit is being cleaned. Even still, there is always a light or something warm feeling set there in its place. “We change enough to keep up with the times, and yet remain the same,” said Assistant Director of Marketing Cheryl Crouch. There are countless organizations working to maintain the Union’s spirit. There is a book kept constantly updated with every Hoosier’s name who has fought in a war since the Civil War. It was entirely handwritten in calligraphy until recently when all the documents were digitized. It was even updated in recent history to include all women who participated in service. There is also the Union Board
on floor two of the old tower. The Union Board has been making the Union run since its very founding back in 1909. They keep active archives of history from all of IU’s history, including an Arbutus book from 1894. Any IU student can join the Union Board and participate in its vibrant history. The Union, being as old and filled with history as it is, has also been known to hold its fair share of ghost stories. The most infamous among them being the painting of the woman with unfinished arms in the Federal Room. It has been said that if she does not have a light on her painting, she will appear at night by the fireplace and turn the light on. There have been other stories of the urn in the Federal Room to the left of the previously mentioned painting. It is said that this urn contains the ashes of someone and will reposition itself if the painting of the angel is facing towards the door. There are endless stories of the Union that lie in every corner of every hallway. Any employee has proven to be more than happy to share their incredible stories and a good bit of history. The Union has been the proud home of IU students since 1932 and has every intention of keeping it that way for generations of Hoosiers to come.

» PYLE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 19 Journalism wasn’t an available major at the time, but Pyle took journalism classes because a friend told him they’d be easy. Luckily for Pyle, he was good at it. He was one semester away from graduating from IU when he received an offer to work at the LaPorte Herald in LaPorte, Indiana. Rather than graduate, Pyle started work. He worked at various newspapers, and, in 1940, he went to London to cover the Battle of Britain. He reported throughout the European theater and North Africa and eventually wound up in Normandy for the D-Day invasion in June of 1944. That same year he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for war correspondence. In 1944, Pyle was invited to campus to receive IU’s first-ever honorary degree of humane letters. This was his last visit to Bloomington, and that spring he went to cover the Pacific theater. On April 18, 1945, Pyle was

killed by machine gun fire on the Japanese island of Ie Shima. Seventy-two years later, Pyle still has an ever-changing presence on the Bloomington campus. Perhaps most notable is the sculpture of Pyle just inside IU’s most notable landmark, Sample Gates. After the announcement of the Media School merger and disintegration of the School of Journalism, many alumni were concerned about the state of the program. When it was an-
nounced that the Media School would be housed in a refurbished Franklin Hall rather than Ernie Pyle, Pyle’s legacy came into question. So, in October 2014, a sculpture of Pyle by Harold “Tuck” Langland was installed in front of Franklin Hall. Though the Media School would not move out of Ernie Pyle Hall for almost two more years, a bronze version of Pyle had found a home on campus. However, two days before the sculpture was to be dedicated, a misspelling was found on Pyle’s patch on his left arm. “Correspondent” was spelled “corespondent.” The mistake was later corrected by Detroit artist Giorgio Gikas. Within the Media School, his legacy lives on in the Ernie Pyle Scholars program, the journalism’s honors cohort for the top students in each class. The scholars take advanced journalism classes throughout their four years and learn about and study the works of their namesake. Learning about Pyle is not limited to EPS, though. One of
the Media School’s many travel courses carried over from the old journalism school is J418: In The Footsteps of Ernie Pyle, a course in which students study Pyle and other World War II journalists for an entire semester and spend spring break abroad in Pyle’s “footsteps” — London, Normandy and Paris — touring the places Pyle reported from during the war. Those places include St. Bride’s Church in London and Omaha Beach in Normandy, France. One of most treasured items of Pyle’s legacy in the Media School sits in the offices of the Indiana Daily Student, the newspaper Pyle worked for as a student. Now known as Ernie Pyle’s desk, the old brown desk sits in the newsroom in honor of Pyle and all other editors-in-chief to come through the IDS. Pyle was editor-in-chief in summer 1922. Editors-in-chief now have a tradition of signing the desk their last night of production. Editors as far back as the 1940s have signed the desk.

» ATHLETICS
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 14 Softball: Andy Mohr Field 1873 N. Fee Lane The new softball stadium was approved at the same time the Board of Trustees approved the baseball stadium in 2011. The new stadium, named for Andy Mohr of Andy Mohr Automotive, opened for the 2013 season with new locker room facilities, a new scoreboard and a mix of chair and stadium seating. Football: Mellencamp Pavilion 1800 N. Dunn St. Named for famed musician and Bloomington local John Mellencamp, the pavilion is the indoor home of the IU football program. It features an artificialsurface field with two grass fields outside.

Track and Field: Robert C. Haugh Complex 1601 N. Fee Lane The outdoor track is named for E.C. “Billy” Hayes, a longtime track and cross-country coach. The track was resurfaced in 2010. It features nine lanes and more-than-adequate facilities in the center for field events. It’s played host to numerous Big Ten and NCAA events and the Indiana High School Athletic Association’s state meet. Track and Field: Harry Gladstein Fieldhouse 1101 E. 17th St. The indoor track and field facility features eight lanes of track and numerous areas for field events including pole vault pits, jumping pits and throwing areas. The track is a Mondo Super-X surface identical to that used in the 1996 Olympics and came to the University from the RCA Dome in Indianapolis. The field house has also been host to numerous high school and collegiate indoor track and field championships. Soccer and Little 500: Bill Armstrong Stadium 1606 N. Fee Lane Bill Armstrong Stadium is host to facilities for the soccer teams, Jerry Yeagley Field and the Little

The stadium was opened in 1981 and underwent renovations in 2000, 2001 and 2005, and will receive more renovations as part of the “For All” Bicentennial Campaign. Golf: IU Golf Course 1350 N. SR 45/46 Built in 1957, the IU Golf Course will undergo major renovations by 2020 as part of the “For All” Bicentennial Campaign. The golf course is open to the public, but the University teams have their own center, the Cecil W. Weathers Golf Team Center. Inside are various amenities for the teams and their staff. It was built in 2009 but got an addition in February 2016. Field Hockey: IU Field Hockey Complex 1606 N. Fee Lane IU Field Hockey got a home of its own in 2007 after playing its first seven seasons in Mellencamp Pavilion. It was one of the only field hockey teams in the country to play indoors. In addition to the turf field is the Ireland Family Fieldhouse, which was added in 2009 and has team locker rooms and meeting rooms.
Basketball: Cook Hall 1051 E. 17th Street Major funding for Cook Hall came from the “For Glory of Old IU” campaign, the first comprehensive capital campaign launched by the Athletic Department. The goal of the The facility for the basketball programs was named for $15 million donors Bill and Gayle Cook of the Cook Group based in Bloomington. The hall houses practice facilities for the men’s and women’s basketball teams and coaches’ offices. Swimming, Diving and Water Polo: Counsilman-Billingsley Aquatics Center 1601 E. Law Lane The aquatics center inside the Student Recreational Sports Center was opened in 1996. The facilities are home to the swimming, diving and water polo programs at IU. It includes an Olympic-sized pool and one of the country’s few indoor diving towers, which has both springboards and platforms of varying heights. Lining the walls of the aquatics center are photos of IU swimming and diving legends. Swimming and diving have produced the most Olympic athletes from the University.
Mother Bear’s Pizza Mother Bear’s pizza has been synonymous with awards. It has won the Best Pizza in Bloomington ten years in a row and Best Local Restaurant in Bloomington twice as voted by the IU community through the IDS Best of Bloomington poll. It has also received the Best Pizza in Indiana according to USA Today and one of America’s Top Nine Pizzerias according to People Magazine. Ray McConn, an IU graduate, has prided himself on keeping Mother Bear’s close to the heart of both the Bloomington and Indiana University communities. It has been serving the students and the public since 1970. Some of the reasons why Mother Bear’s is famous are its specials and specialty pizzas. The most popular, especially among students, is the “Munchie Madness.” This special includes pizza, breadsticks or cheese bread, two home-made brownies and a two liter bottle of soda. The most famous specialty pizza is the “Divine Swine.” This meat lover’s fantasy has every pizza topping imaginable; pepperoni, sausage, ham and bacon. If you are feeling more on the healthy side, try the house salad instead of croutons. The restaurant is always busy and packed with patrons, but you are guaranteed that your long wait will be rewarded.
