IU’s historic season ends with 1-0 loss to Oregon State BY JOE POPELY jpopely@indiana.edu

OMAHA, Neb. — From the get go, it appeared the Hoosiers never really had a chance. When it needed offense — one of its strengths — the IU baseball team could not muster up an attack at the worst possible time. Oregon State eliminated the Hoosiers from the College World Series behind a dominant effort by Beavers’ starter Matt Boyd, who fired a complete-game shutout in OSU’s 1-0 win June 19 at TD Ameritrade Park. IU (49-16) had one last bit of life with two outs in the ninth when sophomore first baseman Sam Travis blooped a single to right-center before freshman second baseman Nick Ramos grounded out to 3rd, ending the Hoosiers’ season.

Local group seeks new location for shelter BY JACLYN LANSBERY jlansber@indiana.edu

“All I hope is that whether it’s two hours from now, two days from now, two months from now, that they can sit back and say they were part of the greatest baseball team in Indiana history,” IU Coach Tracy Smith said. The pitching was certainly strong — IU entered the CWS with the nation’s eighth-best ERA — and performed well in Omaha, as the Hoosiers allowed just six runs in three games. But the team’s hallmark all season was its strong offense, and in Omaha, it never really showed up. IU struck out 38 times over the three games, scoring all of six runs. “It was definitely frustrating,” Travis said. “The bats have been there all year and we come down there and they just SEE BASEBALL, PAGE A10

At the end of summer 2012, IU graduate Samantha Harrell discovered the summer emergency shelter Genesis House would not reopen in Bloomington next year. Time passed, and it was rumored the shelter wouldn’t really close. By February 2013, about two months before Genesis would begin taking in patrons, no one had done anything. That’s when Harrell, who graduated from the IU School of Social Work in May, and seven other social workers decided to open Ubuntu Shelter, a temporary Bloomington emergency shelter that would run through this year only until Nov. 1.

Classroom of the future? New space unveiled featuring monitors, digital workstations BY CORY SCHMIDT caschmid@indiana.edu

On May 21, The Office of the Provost unveiled a new teaching space in the Student Building. The classroom features a video wall connected to 16 digital group workstations, which each seat six students. “We’re calling it the Collaborative Learning Studio,” Provost Lauren Robel said. Robel mentioned the space would be one that hopefully propels instructors into new vistas of teaching. Each workstation is equipped with tables designed by Spectrum, comfortable chairs, a keyboard and mouse and a flat-screen Samsung monitor, which displayed famous quotes about education prior to the presentation. “Children learn and remember at least as much from the context of the classroom as from the content of the coursework,” a quote attributed to Lawrence Kutner,

a fictional doctor in House, read. “This classroom is for learners of the 21st century,” said Sonya Stephens, former vice provost for undergraduate education and one of the room’s designers. The event introduced faculty to this hallmark teaching space and its technology. The room, which is designed to enable maximum collaboration between students and instructors, will be available for classes by request this fall. The overhead monitor is a 240-inch diagonal display that includes 16 60-inch Sharp PN-V601 monitors. Everything is networked with cables rather than a wireless system. The total length of the cabling in the room is about three feet. Other features of the room, which seats 96 students, include 35 total displays for content, including two projectors, 17 audio/ video control systems and 50 individual connections for laptops.

“We all know as teachers that we struggle sometimes with our competition: tiny little, easily hidden screens,” Provost Lauren Robel said. “Our game, in some ways, has to go up, to compete with the world which can come into our classrooms.” When deciding what to do with the space and after careful examination from faculty, the question turned to what does a 21st century teaching space needed to offer. This conversation began in the summer of 2010. President Michael McRobbie said he wanted to do something with the space. “What we learned is that we tend not to know what such a space would look like,” Stephens said. “It’s difficult to imagine until you experience one. We wanted to re-imagine the classroom for initiative teaching and consider how that could be facilitated by a space.” Vice President for Learning Technologies Stacy Morrone, another one of the

room’s designer, said the space utilizes the ability for students and teachers to share and collaborate, engage in video conferences, social networking, and most importantly, offers students accessibility, mobility and flexibility. Following the presentation, Vice President for In-

formation Technology and CIO Brad Wheeler, a professor of information systems at the Kelley School of Business, presented a 10-minute exercise called “Business Case for IT Investment.” The exercise required participants to label components of a case study as fact, faith or fear, which

demonstrated the utility of workstations. All that was required of participants, and would be required of students, is to know how to use a computer. “In this room, you don’t even need a podium,” Wheeler said. “The action is at the table.”

IU responds to Fisher v. University of Texas case BY CATHERINE HUYNH cathuynh@indiana.edu

Affirmative action, a practice used to help benefit underrepresented groups and to promote nondiscrimination, is now the subject of a case that claims this practice itself discriminates. In 2008, Abigail Fisher, a white honor roll student with a 3.59 GPA in the top-12 percent of her graduating class, applied to the University of

Texas at Austin. UT, with just more than 50 percent of their student body consisting of people of color, automatically accepts Texas students who graduate in the top-10 percent of their class. Applicants like Fisher were then to compete against other students who didn’t place in the top-10 percent of their class “under a system in which UT expressly considered race in

order to increase enrollment of Hispanic and AfricanAmerican applicants.” Fisher was denied admission to the University of Texas at Austin, and filed a lawsuit against the university shortly after on the grounds it allegedly discriminated against her race in violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The following year, District Court Judge Sam Sparks

upheld UT’s policy as it met the standards of Grutter v. Bollinger, a 2003 Supreme Court case that upheld the University of Michigan’s affirmative action policy. Fisher’s attorneys then filed petition for Supreme Court review in September 2011. In a 7-1 vote, the Supreme Court ruled June 24 that the Fisher v.

USS INDIANA FINDS NEW HOME AT MEMORIAL STADIUM IU has secured the original prow from the battleship USS Indiana. It arrived at IU in July and will be officially welcomed in a rededication ceremony September 7, 2013.

» UBUNTU CONTINUED FROM PAGE A1 about 20 people attended the meeting, Butchart said. So far, the Ubuntu group has consulted about 20 individuals and groups to prepare its proposal, including city council members and the Board of Directors at the Interfaith Winter Shelter, the only other emergency shelter in Bloomington. It runs from mid-October to mid-April. “Ubuntu” represents a humanistic philosophy concerning people’s relations with each other. The Ubuntu Shelter would have the same low-barrier model as Genesis House and Interfaith. According to the group’s proposal, as long as guests exhibit respectful behavior — regardless of whether they’re under the influence of drugs or alcohol — guests are permitted to stay from as early as 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. of the next morning. Both guests and volunteers would have to agree to follow a set of guidelines re-

quiring guests to check in any bags, drugs, alcohol, medications or weapons upon entry. “It’s all about human safety,” Butchart said. “So we’re trying to get people off the streets, regardless of their current state and the set of challenges they’re facing.” Butchart, who also graduated from the IU School of Social Work in May, said the two main reasons Genesis House closed were volunteer burnout and lack of funding. Genesis House, a program ran by Genesis Church in Bloomington, began three years ago. For two of those years, the shelter was funded in part by the Jack Hopkins Social Services Funding Committee. Harrell, who’s been volunteering with Interfaith Winter Shelter for the past four years, said Genesis Church volunteers largely ran the shelter seven days a week, and had a considerably large budget that went toward overnight staff pay, gas money and other amenities. “It was inherently challenging just like our (Ubuntu Shelter) proposal will be,” she said. “Volunteer burnout

is huge for them. They relied heavily on their congregation and little on outside help.” Harrell said their current challenge is finding a location for the shelter. The ideal location would be close to a bus route or somewhere downtown, but Butchart said at this point they would take anything within city limits. Other than working with people from Genesis House, Ubuntu also has more than 200 volunteers working to educate the community about the need for an emergency shelter. Thomas Pearson, a recent IU graduate and an Ubuntu volunteer, said seeing the group’s dedication has been motivating for him. “They’re passionate about what they do,” he said. “It’s easy to kind of want to give up because there are so many other things you can be doing, but it’s important to think about the needs of others and not give up.” At this time, Ubuntu still has not found a location.

diversity.” In a statement in response to the Fisher decision, IU President Michael A. McRobbie said IU “will analyze the decision carefully before taking any action.” “While we are disappointed that the court did not rule in favor of the University of Texas at Austin, we are pleased that the previously established principle of limited race-conscious admissions standards remains intact,” McRobbie said. “IU remains steadfastly committed to its longstanding goal of providing outstanding educational opportunities to students from historically underrepresented racial and ethnic groups.” This Supreme Court decision has sparked much debate among Americans and has some universities wondering about the

future of their admissions policies. Beth Cate, an associate professor at the IU School of Public and Environmental Affairs, said the court decision doesn’t require universities to make instant changes to their admission programs. The court decision allows further lawsuits to challenge universities that consider race. “Overall the Supreme Court’s decision will make it harder for schools to use race as a factor in admissions,” Cate said. “In the meantime, the Court’s prior opinions leave ample room for schools to try to boost minority enrollments through enhanced outreach and recruitment efforts, and nothing in its Fisher decision appears to disturb any of that.” Kevin Brown, a professor at the IU Maurer School of Law, says he believes the decision is likely to have little impact on how affirmative action functions in

A3 college admissions. “While the Supreme Court remanded the case, it reaffirmed its commitment to Grutter and to the use of race and ethnicity in the admissions process of selective higher education programs,” Brown said via email. Vice President of IU Communications Mark Land, as quoted in the Louisville Courier-Journal, said race is one of the factors IU considers when accepting students, but it does not use a scoring system when weighing applicants. In his statement, McRobbie said, “the perspectives and experiences a diverse student body brings to an IU education also represent a critical part of helping students be successful in the increasingly diverse and international 21st century. “IU will continue to be as inclusive as possible in its admissions decisions within the bounds of the law.”

Gopinaath Kannabiran is a graduate student instructor in IU School of Informatics and Computing.

Standing Up Graduate student speaks about racist, homophobic comments on course evaluations BY MAKENZIE HOLLAND | makholla@indiana.edu

“Get out of this country.” “Power-tripping graduate student, trying to impose his leftist liberal views on us. Stop being so heinously flamboyant because it distracts my learning.” These are some of the comments graduate student Gopinaath Kannabiran received on a teacher evaluation for the course I310 — Multimedia Arts and Technology — he taught last spring. “When I got this feedback, I was like trying to, for a few hours, I was just trying to think, ‘who could have done this?’” Kannabiran said. Kannabiran was sitting and browsing early in the morning when he first saw the feedback. “I’m trying to intentionally try and imagine each and every person’s face,” he said. “I knew all of them, I get to know my students very personally, I bake stuff for them and bring it to class and all of that stuff and we joke

around, so I treat them pretty much as equals for all purposes, unless they require me to step to another power. Otherwise I don’t do that.” Kannabiran said he felt a physical shock after reading the racist and homophobic comments on his evaluation. It was something he was not used to seeing at IU. Kannabiran moved to the United States from India in the fall of 2008 to get his master’s degree from IU. He has many friends in the School of Informatics where he teaches and studies, friends who gave him support when he came out to his parents and friends who gave him support after he received this negative feedback. “I never felt like I was a gay person or an Indian person or a graduate student,” he said. “I just felt like, ‘No, I’m just another person here. In a way, my world was very shielded, in a way that is not reality.’” Kannabiran said only when he steps outside the

safety net of Bloomington is he very much reminded he is an international person of color who is gay. “It’s a very physical feeling,” Kannabiran said. “It’s not just a mental feeling.” Doug Bauder, coordinator of GLBT Support Services at IU, said he was struck by how visibly shaken Kannabiran was after receiving the evaluation. “Periodically we get complaints of students harassing each other in the classroom, but it’s usually in the residence hall or a fraternity or on the street,” Bauder said. “The classroom tends to be a little safer. Maybe that’s another reason Gopi felt so violated, because you expect people to be somehow respectful in that setting.” Kannabiran said after reading the comment, he felt physically unsafe. “This comment was like a lightning bolt, just hitting that way,” Kannabiran said. “I am used to bullying. I’ve been bullied a lot both here and in India ... For two days, for two whole days, I did not feel safe to step outside of my home. I felt very physically violated.” Kannabiran said he is open to any critique on his teaching and is willing to learn and become a better teacher, but the comments he received were intentionally directed at him and very personal. “This is the thing which people don’t understand,” Kannabiran said. “When all is said and done, I am here all by myself. I have wonderful friends who would just, drop everything and come to me if I needed them. I don’t know who this person is, and this is very clearly hateful and personal.” Bauder said this incident was one of the most severe SEE STANDING UP, PAGE A6

» TICKETS CONTINUED FROM PAGE A1 the amount of games students will have tickets to. Those who bought the package via bursar for $320 will only be charged $200. “Since the early ’70s, it has been the procedure that all students should have an opportunity to experience and enjoy Indiana basketball,” Roberts said. “And by following this directive, we have tried to distribute the tickets as evenly as possible with the available seats to the students within Assembly Hall.” IU chose to give students an eight-game package because of Roberts’ idea for even distribution. If sales top 15,600 — Roberts said IU has no plans to shut down student season ticket sales this year as it did last year when it capped sales at 12,400 so students would get tickets to 10 games — students might have even fewer games in their ticket package. “Should the sales surpass 15,600, some students by lottery may receive fewer games in order to accommodate the additional sales unless the department should determine at some point to cut off sales,” Roberts said. As of right now, it is unclear how such a lottery would work. It is also unclear how many premiere games against highprofile opponents students will have access to, given the fact that so many tickets have been sold. Last season, students had access to 10 games and the season before, 16 games. A source within the IU athletic department said before the season begins, it will rank the home games in order of prominence, and in turn reward students and groups based on Crimson Club points with tickets to the top home games.

Proposed merger updates released IU School of Journalism and COAS merger proposal to be presented to Trustees this fall BY MAKENZIE HOLLAND makholla@indiana.edu

A crucial decision will be made this fall regarding the fate of the IU School of Journalism at the IU Board of Trustees’ meeting. In February 2013, Provost Lauren Robel recommended in her State of the Campus address that the School of Journalism merge with the departments of Telecommunications and Communication and Culture. On July 12, a letter addressing Alumni and a memorandum of understanding were released by School of Journalism Interim Dean Lesa Hatley Major. Hatley Major was appointed July 1 in place of exiting Interim Dean Michael Evans. The Memorandum of Understanding, a five-page document based on input from alumni, faculty, staff and students of the school and several others, is an outline of how the nationally accredited journalism school will maintain its reputation and academic integrity within the new school if the merger is approved. The MOU was drafted by the School of Journalism and the College of Arts and Sciences per request of the provost. “We have heard from hundreds of alumni about this recommended new school, and we are very grateful for your ideas and support,” Hatley Major said in the letter. “Your concern about the future of journalarresting. I just sat down on the couch for three hours and I couldn’t move. The intensity of that is something you can never explain to someone else. It’s just something you have to experience. It’s just hard. There’s no other way.” Though Kannabiran was shaken after receiving the feedback, support from his friends at IU and India, as well as a long month of personal reflection brought him peace on the matter. “Within a week I realized this is a single incident,” Kannabiran said. “Then I slowly started analyzing, what is personal and what is not personal. It took me almost a month to come to that place of what is personal and what is not and how I need to handle this. I felt I was at a stable place. I was not holding any grudge. Basically, I’ve made my peace with it, at least on a personal basis.”

ism at IU has helped underscore the passion and commitment we all feel toward journalism education and has strengthened our position as we move toward the creation of the new school.” JR Ross, president of the IU School of Journalism Alumni Board, voiced several concerns he and other alumni still have with the merger and the MOU. “The MOU shows how they’re going to protect journalism, but we still don’t know how they’re going to enhance journalism,” Ross said. “If you’re going to take one of the best schools in the country and essentially blow it up and start over, you have to kind of show that there’s going to be a benefit to this.” Ross questioned how big the budget is going to be following the establishment of the new school, what the curriculum is going to look like and even how the journalism schools’ namesake is going to be honored. “There are a lot of alums who their biggest issue is moving out of Ernie Pyle Hall,” Ross said. “They must not have been here the past twenty years to see how cramped it is, but they have an emotional attachment to Ernie Pyle Hall and that whole thing ... there are still significant concerns about what’s happening.” The next step in the creation of the new school lies in the revision of the proposal submitted to the provost last December. The School of Journalism

Memorandum of Understanding key points

Lesa Hatley Major

and the College of Arts and Sciences will work together to revise the proposal, which was initially submitted by a committee of representatives from journalism, telecommunications and communication and culture. “The proposal will serve as a framework around which we will build the new school,” Hatley Major said in the letter. “It will be specific enough to support and enhance our research mission and ensure we have the means to advance such signature programs as the Ernie Pyle Scholars and our travel courses.” The Trustees’ approved renovations in Franklin Hall during their meeting at IUPUI in June. These renovations are being made to accommodate the school and student media, including the Indiana Daily Student, the Arbutus yearbook, Inside magazine, American Student Radio, WIUX, IUSTV and other course-based media

Being a teacher is not for everyone, Kannabiran said. However, it is the career he continues to pursue. He said this incident allowed him to grow in his role as a teacher. “That is where I think I, as a teacher, have work to do,” Kannabiran said. “Something about me, the way I conducted myself, probably must have made this person feel unwelcome or threatened, that they couldn’t feel like they could come and talk to me about this.” Kannabiran said that after his class ended, a student took him out to lunch and gave him a card in appreciation of his teaching. “To me, that’s all that matters,” he said. “I open the drawer and I see that and then I feel like, ‘OK, somebody thinks I’m good at this and I need to keep doing it.’”

These points taken from the Memorandum of Understanding will only take effect if the merger is officially approved by the IU Board of Trustees this fall. Here is what you need to know from the MOU. The newly merged school will be established effective July 1, 2014. Journalism faculty and staff positions, services and programs will maintain their current forms for five years following the establishment of the new school. Previous philanthropic gifts to the School of Journalism will transfer to and remain with the new journalism program. Donors may continue to designate gifts specifically for journalism following the merger. The merged school’s new location in Franklin Hall

will accommodate student media, including the Indiana Daily Student, IUSTV and others. Undergraduate students admitted to IUB in the Fall of 2013 and Spring 2014 will follow the 2013-14 SOJ Bulletin requirements for a degree. Students arriving after Spring 2014 will follow requirements in place at the time of their arrival. Graduate students, both M.A. and Ph.D. will follow the same timeline. The College stipulates that SOJ courses and faculty teaching public relations and advertising will remain in the DOJ. The name of the department, formerly the SOJ, will be determined by faculty in the department in consultation with the Dean of the School.

enterprises, according to the letter. “I’ve talked to the provost and I believe in her heart of hearts she thinks this is the best way forward with journalism,” Ross said. “I do not think she’s trying to destroy journalism at all. We just have a fundamental disagreement on how best to move forward with the school. I do believe the faculty, and Lesa, are doing their best to produce the best possible outcome and I just keep my fingers crossed that it works.”

“I’ve talked to the provost and I believe in her heart of hearts she thinks this is the best way forward with journalism.” JR Ross, president of the IU School of Journalism Alumni Board

THE LIVING STORY OF LIMESTONE Former IU official offers lecture on mineral history of campus buildings, critique of campus architecture BY MARY HAUBER | mhauber@indiana.edu

“I call architecture frozen music,” German playwright and poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe once said. If this is so, IU’s campus is a concert and limestone is the melody, IU vice president emeritus Terry Clapacs said. Clapacs was one of the longest-serving vice presidents in IU’s history and supervised the development of more than two-thirds of what is now IU. Clapacs, who is working on an upcoming book, spoke May 17 at City Hall as part of the Rosemary Miller Lecture series. He titled his lecture “Limestone: The Tie That Binds.” “It’s not only a tie that bonds buildings on campus, but a tie that bonds Monroe County and Bloomington and IU together,” Clapacs said. The uniform look of IU is one of the reasons everyone likes the campus, Clapacs explained. There are two factors which create this consistency. First, the landscaping, which is consistent throughout campus in its beauty. Second is the building vocabulary, Clapacs said. The majority of IU’s buildings around campus are limestone, and if they aren’t, limestone has influenced the design and appearance of the building. Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of the minerals calcite and aragonite, which are different crystal forms of calcium carbonate. There is an abundance of limestone in Monroe County

because the area was not covered by glaciers. “For the most part, it was never glaciated, which was fortunate for us,” Clapacs said. Part of Clapacs’s lecture also focused on the previous campus that held IU. Serving as the IU campus for 60 years, the Seminary Square campus met its end in a fire. Science Hall, which housed the school’s library, was struck by lightning. People took this fire as a sign the campus was in the wrong place, Clapacs said. This area is now a park in Bloomington. When the Board of Trustees had to decide whether to move the campus to Indianapolis or stay in Bloomington, Bloomington received the majority of the vote, and the trustees purchased 20 acres on which to rebuild the campus. IU’s first limestone building, Maxwell Hall, was built in 1890. Clapacs said this building is his favorite. He is commissioning a painting of the building which will include his dog. “I think the University got it right the first time out of the box,” Clapacs said. An interesting detail that brings the previous campus into the current one is the Rose Well House. The Rose Well House had originally been a part of the Science Building from the old campus, and was kept in storage for many years, Clapacs said. It was intended to be where the Sample Gates are today, but did not allow enough free flow of students.

“It’s not only a tie that bonds buildings on campus, but a tie that bonds Monroe County and Bloomington and IU together.” Terry Clapacs, IU vice president emeritus

It now sits slightly away from the Sample Gates and Kirkwood Avenue. Two buildings on campus are not quite as favor- Rose Well House able to Clapacs as the rest. Ballantine was described by President Herman B Wells as one of his three mistakes, Clapacs said. “Ballantine is limestone, but completely out of style with the rest of campus,” Clapacs said. The IU Art Museum also stands out to Clapacs. “I’ll tell you what I think about the Art Museum,” Clapacs said. “I love the building itself. As it stands alone, it’s lovely in many ways.” However, he said in conjunction with the other buildings around Showalter plaza, it does not fit so well. “The Showalter Plaza centerpiece is the IU Auditorium, and the angle coming out of the art museum distracts the eye of someone coming into the circle,” Clapacs said. These buildings do not take away from IU, however. “The beauty of this campus is not something that’s new,” Clapacs said. “It’s a place that’s easy to love and it’s a lot of what we all have spent our lives trying to do.”

» BASEBALL CONTINUED FROM PAGE A1 weren’t there. Tip my hat to our pitchers, they did their job. We just couldn’t capitalize and get runs.” They Hoosiers managed just four hits off Boyd (11-4), who struck out 11. IU did not get its first hit until a onesingle by senior shortstop Michael Basil in the fifth. He became the only IU runner to make to second base when senior third baseman Dustin DeMuth laid down a bunt single the very next pitch. Junior left fielder Casey Smith flew out and sophomore second baseman Chad Clark popped out to 3rd to end the threat. IU finished 1-2 in its first trip to the College World Series, its lone win a 2-0 victory against Louisville in the team’s opening game on June 15. Both losses were by one run. Nonetheless, this IU team will stand the test of time as the first to reach Omaha. “It surpassed my wildest dreams,” Basil said. “When I committed to Indiana, I never though that this was really a possibility when I was coming here. It’s really unbelievable. I mean it stings right now, but more than anything I remember the group of guys.”

The Beavers (52-12) got the game’s only run on Jake Rodriguez’ sacrifice fly to right in the fourth inning that scored Kavin Keyes, who led off the inning with a single to center. IU’s hitting woes wasted sophomore starter Aaron Slegers’ first complete game. It was nothing short of a historic season for IU, which set a record for single-season wins and swept the Big Ten titles, ending decade-old conference championship droughts. It swept the Bloomington regional and swept college baseball powerhouse Florida State in Tallahassee, Fla. Finally, it won its first game in the CWS on its first try. “It’s not over-achievement, because we’ve been solid all year we’ve had the confidence, the talent and the mature approach to play good baseball all year and we knew this team was something special,” senior center fielder Justin Cureton said. “To put a team like Indiana on the map is huge, especially for our school because we achieved a lot of firsts this year. It was just a great season.” Now that the Hoosiers are on the map, a new standard has been set for a once-dormant program. Travis said anything short

of a repeat trip to Omaha in 2014 will not cut it. “It’s awesome to be a part

of this team and it’s awesome to look who we got coming back next year,” Travis said.

“We’re definitely losing some key guys, but hopefully we got enough coming back

IU center to help design Liberian amendments BY STEPHEN KROLL sckroll@indiana.edu

IU’s Center for Constitutional Democracy has been asked to aid the government of Liberia in designing proposed amendments to the country’s constitution. “The CCD has been involved in Liberia for many years now,” Susan Williams, IU Maurer School of Law professor and CCD director, said. “We have established relationships of trust with many people in the government of Liberia, and have been advising them on a variety of subjects related to constitutional reform.” Liberia was established

in 1847 after freed slaves sent back to Africa from the United States declared independence and founded the state. Although its government draws heavily on American ideas of freedom and democracy, Liberia has struggled in recent years with civil unrest, using blood diamonds to fund the Sierra Leone Civil War while fighting multiple civil wars of its own. The most recent Liberian civil war ended in 2003. The center has worked with Liberia on reforming its constitution since 2005. Williams and her husband David, who is also an IU law professor and the

creator and executive director of the center, have worked on constitutional law around the world, including places such as Burma and Vietnam. David Williams said that while Liberia has always dealt with issues of excessive executive supremacy, current president Ellen Johnson Sirleaf is actually willing to limit her own power. “Chief executives typically are not prepared to do this, but she is, and that means that if we can actually, within the next few years, limit the power of the Liberian president, the risk of a civil war, of an insurrection, goes way, way down,” he said. “So we

may be talking about thousands of lives saved.” Both professors expressed enthusiasm for the reform. “We have the opportunity to think this through in an academic way, rather than serving narrower political agendas, and we think that it is to the credit of the Liberian government that they are so prepared to do this,” David Williams said. The center’s aid will consist of four parts: informing the Liberian public about the current constitution, holding public meetings to determine their wants and needs, using the information gathered in the drafting of

the actual amendments and informing the public about the proposed changes. “The public consultation process will last through about June of 2014,” Susan Williams said. “At that point the proposed amendments go to the president for her approval, and then to the legislature for their approval.” After a year, the amendments will be put to a vote in a referendum. The center will train and accompany the teams holding the public consultations. They plan to focus on fostering discourse from all parts of the Liberian public, especially

women, youth and rural peoples who do not speak English. David Williams said Liberia has had its share of troubles but remained hopeful about the amendments. “Liberia has suffered for so many years, and when people suffer typically they go on killing each other,” he said. “To actually call a halt to the violence, to step back and think about ways to construct a better future, this is a miracle that humans are capable of and that we are witnessing in Liberia right now. It’s a great, great privilege for us to be able to be a part of it.”

Signs detailing Lauren Spierer’s disappearance have been updated across Bloomington.

2 years, 3,060 tips later, STILL NO ANSWER June 3, 2013 marks two year anniversary of then-sophomore Lauren Spierer’s disappearance BY MAKENZIE HOLLAND AND SAMANTHA FELIX | makholla@indiana.edu, sadfelix@indiana.edu

T

his past spring, as graduation caps flew into the air following the 2013 Undergraduate Commencement Ceremonies, one particular cap was never

thrown. June 3 marked the two-year anniversary of the disappearance of then-20 year old IU sophomore Lauren Spierer, who vanished June 3, 2011. It is a night that remains a mystery to this day. In his commencement speech at the Undergraduate Ceremonies, President Michael A. McRobbie asked the IU community to keep Spierer and her family and friends in their thoughts. McRobbie noted that Spierer is a member of the community

who will never be forgotten. “This is something that is on our minds every day,” Dean of Students Pete Goldsmith said. “We constantly think about her family, friends and people that knew her and the fact that she was supposed to graduate this year. We hope there is a resolution for her family as well as the IU campus who remembers her daily.” The details of Spierer’s last known whereabouts are no more clear two years later than they were the very day she was reported missing. According to police reports, Spierer left her Smallwood apartment complex with then-IU student Corey Rossman and walked to Kilroy’s Sports Bar at 1:46 a.m.

Spierer and Rossman entered the bar, the outside area of which had been filled with sand to simulate a beach area, and walked around barefoot. At 2:27 a.m., Spierer was seen on camera leaving the bar barefoot and without her cell phone. Rossman accompanied Spierer back to her apartment complex, arriving at 2:30 a.m., where he was involved in an altercation with another resident. Rossman was reportedly punched in the face and fell to the ground, but he claims he does not recall this incident. The two exited the Smallwood complex at 2:42 a.m. after a brief 12-minute stop, which the apartment security footage confirmed. Street cameras between

Smallwood and the apartments she visited at 11th and Morton streets captured additional footage of Spierer, which shows her walking with another person through the camera fields. The sequence of events that followed after she left her apartment building remain inconclusive. Mike Beth, Rossman’s roommate, said he helped Rossman to his bed and then accompanied Spierer down the hall to the apartment of Jay Rosenbaum, an acquaintance. Rosenbaum claims he tried to persuade Spierer to stay on his couch that night and that she refused.

In 2012 Henryville, Ind., was struck by an EF-4 tornado causing extensive damage to the community and killing at least three people. It was on the ground for more than 50 miles, destroying Henryville Elementary School and Henryville Jr./Sr. High School. Due in part to extensive training by first responders, such as the Emergency Management and Continuity team and others, the number of fatalities was far fewer than it could have been. June 12, the city of Bloomington welcomed 250 airmen and soldiers with the Indiana National Guard’s premier disaster response team along with an assortment of civilian and military disaster response teams to conduct search and extraction training called United Front II, similar to the one used by the Henryville tornado’s first responders. “Every incident that we respond to, every exercise that we participate in makes us a better team and more capable to respond,” said Diane Mack, emergency management and continuity of IU director. The exercise that was practiced re-

As if being in college is not hectic enough, try adding a pet to the mix. While away at college, many students find comfort in owning a pet, but for some, the commitment to their animals only lasts as long as the school year. According to The Humane Society of the United States website, “Animal shelters located near colleges find that students may abandon pets when the animal is no longer convenient. End-of-semester dumping of animals is a sad reality.” Kirsten Theisen, director of pet care issues for The Humane Society of the United States, said that if students really want to have pets around, there are other options. “Instead, we recommend that students get involved with their local shelter as a volunteer, intern or summer employee,” Theisen said. “This allows you to spend hours with all the animals looking for permanent homes, and help those animals become more adoptable.” Pets require more than just food and water every day. “The MCHA would definitely advocate for anyone thinking of

volved around an EF 5 tornado with 200-mph winds striking the IU campus. This scenario, which is similar to the one that struck Joplin, Mo., in May 2011, is highly relevant as more than 50 EF 5 level tornadoes have struck Indiana since 1950. “We would hope and pray that something like this would never happen, but I think we all know as

Americans that in our nation natural disasters are pretty prevalent,” said Major General R. Martin Umbarger, adjutant general for Indiana. This tornado exercise was used for more than natural disaster purposes, it was also used to simulate war sceSEE DRILL , PAGE B4

getting a pet that it is a lifelong commitment and that animals are costly,” said Sarah Hayes, CEO of Monroe County Humane Association. “They are an on-going cost as well, and that’s something to keep in mind.” Pets also require a similar schedule every day and are affected by changing owners frequently. “The changing of hands, going from one person to another to another, does affect the animal,” Director of the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter Laurie Ringquist said. “That animal bonds with a person and gets used to their routine and schedules and it gets disrupted when they have to go through it again with a whole new person.” Things such as behavioral problems, litter box problems and potty training problems can result in changing owners due to a lack of consistency in teaching manners and behaviors. Though Ringquist attributes end-of-the semester drop-offs to many different factors and not just students, she does advise them to SEE SHELTER, PAGE B3

Limestone Comedy Fest brings notable names to town refreshing.” Performances began June 6 with headliner Tig Notaro along with Stewart Huff, John Roy, Jackie Kashian, Graham Elwood and many others. Notaro is most known for her performance on “The Sarah Silverman Show” as a lesbian police officer and was featured on “Comedy Central Presents.” June 7 night’s headliners were Maria Bamford, Geoff Tate and Al Jackson. Bamford was featured in the documentary series “The Comedians of Comedy” on Comedy Central and appeared on the latest season of “Arrested Development.” “At Maria Bamford, my face and jaw hurt so bad from laughing. She was great,” comedy fan Jackson Cladwell said. June 8 night’s headliners were Doug Benson and Pete Holmes. Benson, best known for his documentary about marijuana called “Super High Me,” as well as his appearances on “Comedy Central Presents,” “Best Week Ever,” and “Last Comic Standing.” Benson’s show on June 8 was “The Doug Benson Movie Interruption,” in which he, along with Jackie Kashian, Graham Elwood and Geoff Tate, interrupted the Bloomington-centric “Breaking Away” with funny jokes and entertaining puns.

Laughs could be heard from all across downtown Bloomington as the first ever Limestone Comedy Festival took place June 6-8. The Limestone Comedy Festival is a three-day, multi-venue comedy festival founded by Jared Thompson, owner of The Comedy Attic, and Mat Alano-Martin, a local comedian. “Last year, I was on the road a lot and did quite a few comedy festivals when the idea came to me,” AlanoMartin said. “I could create my own comedy festival here in Bloomington.” He said his experiences on the road and at different comedy festivals allowed him to develop his idea and join forces with Thompson. “I took my idea to Jared, he liked it and we started really working on it in September of last year,” Alano-Martin said. “Nearly 10 months later, everything was happening.” More than 50 comedians, roughly 40 from out of state, came to Bloomington to perform for an anticipated audience of up to 500 people. Comedians performed at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater as well as The Comedy Attic, The Back Door and Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center. “We know this will be fun for the community,” AlanoMartin said. “There isn’t a lot that goes on during the summer so this will be

Benson also admitted to never seeing the movie before and not preparing for it. He also made jokes before the movie about Bloomington residents being called “cutters.”

“Please, teenage girls listening to this podcast, do not cut yourselves,” Benson said. “Cutters aren’t what they used to be.” One Benson fan, Katie Thompson, said she came to the show only because the title resembled Benson’s other show, “The Benson Comedian Doug Benson performs during the Limestone Comedy Festival on June 8 at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.

» SHELTER CONTINUED FROM PAGE B1 think about the commitment an animal brings to student’s lives. “At the top of the list is making a life-long commitment,” Ringquist said. “If they want to adopt a puppy, they might have that dog for the next 15 years through graduating college, through moving to a new city and getting a new job, through maybe even getting married and having kids. So we do talk to students about thinking ahead and the commitment.” Pets require a lot of time, money and commitment. These are often things most college students do not have a lot of because they face many other obligations such as school, work and their social lives. The City of Bloomington Animal Shelter has a process that each applicant must go through in order to adopt a pet. First, they must fill out an adoption application that requires them to answer questions about previous experience with animals, what the owners expectations are, what particular kind of pet the owner is looking for, landlord information as well as

» COMEDY CONTINUED FROM PAGE B2 Interruption.” “I love Doug Benson so very much,” Thompson said. “The show was awesome.” Pete Holmes is known for the voices he provides to several different characters on Comedy Central’s cartoon “Ugly Americans” and his stand-up comedy act, which he has performed on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien.” Holmes performed last Saturday night with special guest Benson as well as Josh Cocks, Brian Frange and Brad Wilhelm. Holmes joked around about how easy it is to be a comedian, simply stating over and over again, “what you know about green eggs and ham?” as the audience rolled with laughter.

veterinarian information to make sure all other animals in the household are being taken care of properly. After this, adoption applicants must meet with an adoption councilor. “Often times, for college students, when someone is wanting to adopt a puppy or a dog, we require all of the roommates to come in and meet the dog first and also speak with the council to make sure all of the roommates are on board,” Ringquist said. Also, all applicants must have landlord approval. The City of Bloomington Animal Shelter is required to call the landlord and make sure pets are allowed there as well as ask questions about deposit fees or monthly fees to discuss in the adoption counseling session. “Once we are through that process then a manager has to approve the application,” Ringquist said. “Someone can’t just walk in and say I want that dog and walk out with it.” She also asks students to consider a wide range of things before adopting an animal. “We talk to students about moving and landlords, monetary commitment, time management, roommates and

allergies, vacations, and the long-term time commitment,” Ringquist said. She advises students to think about their living arrangements and whether or not they are pet-friendly as well as veterinarian bills for shots, illness, or injury. Also, with school and possibly a job, will you pet receive enough attention and will they be given the proper care. “Animals are a lot of work,” Ringquist said. “They can be very rewarding and add a lot to someone’s life, but for students who already have very busy schedules and lots of commitments we ask them to really consider all of these things before they add an animal to the home.” Ringquist offers this instead of taking on the full commitment. “Students should know that we have a very active volunteer program and foster program so they might be able to fulfill that need of being around animals by volunteering at a shelter instead of taking on the life-long commitment of a pet.” For information regarding volunteering at the animal shelter or fostering animals, visit the City of Bloomington website at www.bloomington. in.gov.

Holmes also made jokes about his sex life and his awkward first encounters with “sexy texting.” “Yes, I am going to use both words,” Holmes said. “Okay, I can save you five seconds, ‘sexting.’” The Comedy Attic drew upon its nearly five years of business to create a significant array of headliners. “The reason we were able to get so many great names in our first year is because the Comedy Attic has established an amazing reputation in the comedy world and the industry itself,” Alano-Martin said. “That is one of the many reasons we knew it would work.” The festival offered tickets for shows ranging from $10 to $30 a piece or offered festival badges for two days for $50 and three-day badges for $75. The festival also offered

the VIP Limestone Badge for $125, which sold out before the end of the weekend. “It was important to us to make this as affordable as possible for comedy fans,” Alano-Martin said. “We offer the badges for big comedy fans who are willing to commit themselves to the festival for the entire weekend. We really want to take care of those people.” At the conclusion of the last comedy show June 8, Thompson and AlanoMartin joined Holmes on stage, thanking everyone for coming. “We hope this will become an annual event and since we have been so welcomed already by the community, I’m pretty confident we will,” Alano-Martin said.

Past auditor charged with felony theft FROM IDS REPORTS

Former Monroe County Auditor Amy Gerstman was charged May 13 with six counts of theft and one count of official misconduct for allegedly making personal purchases with a countyissued credit card. In 2011, Gerstman submitted a claim to the Monroe County Government for alleged travel and training expenses in New York City accounting for $2,500 for which she received payment. In fact, though, she did not attend the training session nor did she use the money for any training-related purposes. In November 2011, Gerstman reimbursed the county and released a letter to the public apologizing to the taxpayers of Monroe County for confusion surrounding the claim and for using the credit card for personal expenditures. Gerstman had five

He said the scenario of collapsed buildings and the need of first responders is a similar concept to that of the U.S.’ natural disasters. “We have something to learn and something to teach,â€? he said. The goal of the exercise is to share valuable search and extraction tactics, techniques and procedures among the different organizations including: National Guard Bureau, Indiana National Guard, Indiana Task Force One, Indiana State Police, Bloomington Fire Department, United States Marine Corps, Chemical Biological Incident Response Force and ZAK’A, an international humanitarian organization. “In the Guard, we oftentimes say we are always ready and always there, one of the ways we have to accomplish that though is realistic training and challenging exercises,â€? said Major General Gerald Ketchum, director of Domestic Operations and Force Development with the National Guard Bureau. With the help of three Israeli engineers, the Indiana National Guard was able to prepare site preparation and staging at the defunct post

other instances as well, such as spending nearly $100 at CATO women’s clothing store and paying her children’s $1,800 Harmony School tuition. The official misconduct charge is because the criminal offenses occurred while she was serving her term as the elected auditor of Monroe County. The State Board of Accounts conducted an investigation into the use of the county-issued credit card from January 2010 to March 2012, when they discovered unauthorized uses of the credit card. Special Prosecutor Barry Brown and Monroe County Sheriff ’s Department Detective Jennifer Allen investigated the financial irregularities, which led to the charges being filed against her. Gerstman was elected as the Monroe County auditor in November 2008. — Samantha Felix

office in downtown Bloomington, IU Wrubel Computing Center and Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house. The training consisted of collapsing the buildings, stabilizing the collapsed structures, placing the mannequin, cutting steel, breaching and breaking walls and concrete, lifting and hauling rubble, marking hazards and retrieving “victims� or mannequins. “The skills and knowledge that we have gained in that last 24 hours or even the last months as we have planned this would allow us to respond to this in a united front,� said Bloomington Fire Department, Chief Roger Kerr. As crews used ladders against the rubble to extract “victims,� they learned to work as a single unit. Thomas Morrison, vice president for capital planning and facilities for IU, said that the event was about learning and education. “In the long run, this will benefit not only IU and the local community,� he said. “but the state, the nation and certainly around the world.�

Marriage laws remain inconsistent across country

This is a state-bystate map of the current samesex marriage legislation in the United States. The Defense of Marriage act was ruled unconstitutional and California’s Proposition 8 amendment was overturned June 26, 2013, signaling a victory for same-sex marriage advocates

BY ASHLEY JENKINS | ashmjenk@indiana.edu

D

espite a step in the right direction, a lot of work is yet to be done. That’s been the response of many same-sex marriage supporters since the Defense of Marriage Act and Proposition 8 rulings came from Supreme Court June 26. And it’s an understatement to Sara Gardner, coowner of The Back Door, a queer bar opened in Bloomington this year. She said she thinks the court sold people short. Because of the court’s decision to make samesex marriage a matter of states’ rights, some couples are missing out on federal

benefits others will soon start to receive. “It’s like (the Supreme Court) didn’t really want to deal with it,� Gardner said. “They kind of just pushed it onto the states.� Although she said she isn’t fully content with the decisions, Gardner acknowledges the move to outlaw a key part of DOMA as a sign of much-needed progress. Gardner said she remembers Bloomington High School South in the 1980s, a place where being queer wasn’t accepted kindly and wasn’t to be talked about. It continued into college. Her first girlfriend was bullied in her sorority during their freshman year at IU because she was gay.

To celebrate the small KEY but meaningful changes Neither recognized nor she’s seen in Bloomington, anti-gay constitutional The Back Door was open the amendment Wednesday the Supreme Court rulings broke the Anti-same-sex news, even though it was a marriage constitutional night the bar isn’t usually amendment open. But although Monroe Same-sex marriages County has seen many legal changes of heart on queer Full Domestic issues, the fact Indiana is a Partnerships/Civil Republican state might hold Unions legal same-sex couples in Bloomington behind. Broad Domestic After growing up in Partnerships/Civil Bloomington and owning a Unions with antipopular queer bar in town, gay constitutional Gardner said she knows a lot amendments of couples eager for the day marriage equality becomes SEE DOMA, PAGE B5

Warrant issued in apartment animal neglect case FROM IDS REPORTS

CLAYTON MOORE | IDS

The Back Door, a queer bar that opened Feb. 13, in Bloomington, is one of only a handful of LGBT-friendly clubs in Bloomington. The Back Door is located behind The Atlas Bar downtown.

Âť DOMA CONTINUED FROM PAGE B4 law in Indiana. But she said she knows some that aren’t interested in the idea of getting married at all. She said it’s important to remember the history of what marriage means, and how it’s still steeped in tradition today. “Marriage used to be a business deal,â€? Gardner said. “There were dowries. Women were considered property. It’s changed, but marriage is still a patriarchal institution and a lot of gay couples don’t want anything to do with it anyway.â€?

But they still want the right to it, for equality’s sake, she said. “Marriage is a kind of symbolic segue to what all of us really want,� Gardner said. “Whether we want to get married or not, we just want to be treated equal.� And even when legislation is passed, she fears struggles may still exist. “How do you get past workplace discrimination? Stuff like that’s hard to prove,� Gardner said. “Women and blacks still deal with that. History moves slow.� So while Gardner and Olive Lykins, the other owner of The Back Door, wait with the queer community in

Bloomington for more progress, they’re trying to make some of their own. Not just owners of a bar, the two are activists. Lykins, who worked on special events planning for MTV, uses his experience to get The Back Door involved with the community. They’ve networked with WFHB and Secretly Canadian, and they’ve made friends with the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction, whose donated artwork and paraphernalia adorn the zebra-striped bar’s walls. In March they organized a standing-room-only meeting for the Bloomington Sex Sa-

lon, a monthly communitybased speaker series on all things sex. And with sights set bigger than that, they’re in the process of getting the city to have its own Pride festival. Gardner and Lykins said they don’t want to just provide a haven for the queer community. They want to enrich it. And to that effort, they said the community has been more than receptive. “If Bloomington were a state, this would all be old news,� Gardner said. “But just because we have it figured out, doesn’t mean we’re going to keep quiet. Everyone needs to be involved.�

Officers responded to a report of animal neglect when managers of The Stratum of Indiana apartment complex found five deceased animals in a unit June 17, Bloomington Police Department Sgt. Joe Crider said. Management of The Stratum of Indiana apartment complex found the deceased animals in a unit leased by a 20-year-old female who had reportedly left Bloomington for China. Two deceased guinea pigs were found in a wire cage as well as three deceased gerbils in two separate cages. Another gerbil was found alive but in poor condition in a fourth cage, Crider said. Officers also reported multiple dogs located in the apartment in wire cages covered in their own urine

and feces, Crider said. The animals were seized after officers made contact with a representative from Bloomington Animal Control. A warrant has been requested and paperwork has been forwarded to the Monroe County Prosecutor’s Office requesting preliminary charges for seven counts of abandonment and neglect of vertebrae animals. The 20-year-old woman accused of animal neglect at the Stratum of Indiana apartment complex returned to Bloomington for a June 18 interview with the Bloomington Police Department, Sgt. Joe Crider said. The woman told police she had been out of town since the morning of June 17. She said she had left for Chicago and a friend was supposed to feed and waSEE ANIMALS, PAGE B8

Naked man on LSD crashes car into tree FROM IDS REPORTS

A 21-year-old male was left hospitalized with pending charges after crashing his vehicle while naked and on LSD July 16, Bloomington Police Department’s Sgt. Joe Crider said. Officers responded at approximately 4:50 p.m. to the 1000 block of West 12th Street in reference to a naked man walking on the street. Officers could not locate the nude man and began speaking with neighbors who eventually provided an address of where this male could be staying, Sgt. Crider said. He was located at the address provided. Officers asked him to sit down outside of the residence and began questioning him about his nude status. He appeared disoriented and as though he was not understanding officer’s commands, police said. At that point, the 21-yearold male walked inside of the residence for a short period of time and came out running. He got inside a white Cadillac and secured himself. Officers attempted to stop him because of his disoriented condition, but he took off with the vehicle nearly striking one of the officers, police said. A brief vehicle pursuit occurred from 12th Street to the intersection of Monroe and 17th streets where the man collided with a tree. He appeared to have fractured his leg near his ankle, police said. He was then transported to IU Health Bloomington Hospital where he admitted being under the influence of LSD. Police said the male was admitted to the hospital and is facing charges of operating while intoxicated, creating endangerment, resisting law enforcement with a vehicle and criminal recklessness. — Samantha Felix

A second chance at life Cousins Day has special meaning for two Indiana families BY SAMANTHA FELIX sadfelix@indiana.edu

July 24 is the nationally recognized Cousins Day in which cousins are encouraged to reach out and celebrate their connectedness with one another. Ryan and Timmy Isom have much to celebrate, and it’s not just each other. “The fact that two cousins needed a kidney transplant took our families by surprise, but both Isom boys receiving their new kidneys within six months of each other was truly a miracle for all of us to celebrate,” Brandi Evans said, mother of Timmy and aunt of Ryan. Ryan, 5, and Timmy, 20, both received new kidneys and a second chance at life in 2011. Timmy was born in 1993. At six weeks old, he was diagnosed with renal dysplasia, which is an abnormality of development within the kidneys. Doctors decided they would monitor his condition rather than take action and make him go through surgery at such a young age. “Renal dysplasia means his kidneys were too small,” Evans said. “When he was little it didn’t affect him as much because he was still so small, but when he hit his growth spurt and started going through puberty his kidneys couldn’t keep up.” At 13, Timmy’s kidney’s

began failing and he started taking medication to preserve the kidney functions that remained. By March 2010, Timmy’s kidneys started deteriorating and at 16 he began dialysis eight hours a day and was added to the national transplant list. “I was taking 55 to 60 pills a day depending on the day,” Timmy said. “I wasn’t able to do the things normal kids did.” In 2008, Timmy’s cousin, Ryan, was born six weeks early. Ryan’s parents, Stacey

done. When Ryan was born, the PUV had caused such severe damage that his kidneys were only functioning at roughly 3 to 5 percent. Ryan required life-saving dialysis when he was just eight days old. “He spent the first 61 days of his life at Riley Hospital,” Stacey said. “Then he came home and did dialysis every day for three and a half years.” Because of Ryan’s small size, he was not eligible for a kidney transplant until he

As soon as Stacey contacted the organization she said she began to feel relieved. She said she was finally able to focus on just her son and the care he needed. COTA is a national charity based in Bloomington, which is dedicated to organizing and guiding families and communities in raising funds for transplant-needy patients. COTA’s priority is to assure that no child or young adult is denied a transplant or excluded from a transplant waiting list because of lack of funds.

“I remember being woken up post-op and feeling instantly better. Obviously, the pains of surgery were there, but my body didn’t ache in the same ways it used to, I felt healthier. I was ready to get up and walk around, but I wasn’t allowed.” and Tim Isom, were told at their 20th-week ultrasound that their baby was diagnosed with PUV, a blockage between the bladder and urethra. “It was very shocking because I had never heard of it. You go in to get your ultrasound, expecting to hear if it’s a boy or a girl, and when they told us, I was a wreck. I just didn’t know enough about the problem and I didn’t know what his future held,” Stacey said. Doctors attempted to fix his kidneys in utero, but the damage had already been

reached 25 pounds, which took all of the three and a half years that he was on dialysis. A child born without this problem would typically reach 20 pounds by their first birthday. During the spring of 2008, a Riley Hospital for Children social worker gave Ryan’s family information about the Children’s Organ Transplant Association. “We were lucky because we got involved with COTA before Ryan was eligible for the transplant so we had time to raise money prior,” Stacey said.

“COTA has been a lifesaver for our families,” Stacey said in a press release from COTA. “COTA gave us hope during our darkest days of illness while bills were piling up. When we needed support and guidance the most, COTA was there for us.” Timmy’s mother, Evans, also began feeling overwhelmed with financial aspects for the impending transplant turned to Stacey for advice and support. She immediately recommended COTA to Evans. Stacey explained the organization would help cover

expenses not covered by insurance such as mileage for the 100-mile round-trip visit to the dialysis center the families would have to make. They would also help cover co-pays and lodging for Evans during Timmy’s hospital stays. Evans said she contacted COTA with the hopes of receiving help like Ryan’s family did. “Stacey told me about the organization and I immediately got involved,” Evans said. “We both did. I went to her son’s fundraising events and she went to mine. Our families bonded because of what we had all been through.” Evans explained fundraising is an exhausting venture because you have to have multiple events in order to raise enough money, but that it was a necessary process. COTA started working with both families to support and guide them with the necessary measures to create a successful fundraising campaign. Timmy’s fundraising goal was $50,000. They raised $40,000. Ryan’s fundraising goal was $65,000 and they ultimately raised $67,000 in little more than a year. “It was a relief because Ryan being born six weeks early was a half a million dollars expense,” Stacey said.

3 vehicle accident causes major injuries and closed road FROM IDS REPORTS

Firefighters battle a fire Tuesday afternoon that engulfed the AMVETS building off Airport Rd. Firefighters from six departments responded to the scene just after 3:30 PM, after smoke was scene coming from the bar area of the building.

Fire damages AMVETS building BY SAMANTHA FELIX sadfelix@indiana.edu

A fire at the Bloomington AMVETS headquarters off Airport Road damaged one building and destroyed the other around 3:30 p.m. July 16. “It’s been a rough couple of days, but this is just a bump in the road,� said Dawn Bush, a 10 year member of the AMVETS organization. Bush was at the bar in the AMVETS building with her mother and fellow member, Diana Hawkins, when the fire first started. “Matt James came running

in the bar and told all us there was a fire,� Bush said. Bush said she immediately grabbed a fire extinguisher from the kitchen area thinking it was a small trash fire from someone’s lit cigarette as James called 911. Bush ran outside to assess the situation and attempt to put the fire out, but realized it was more than she could handle. “I saw the smoke and stepped back for a minute to look at the roof of the building when the door blew open and I could see the fire raging,� she said. That’s when she, too ran

back inside to help her mother collect their things and leave. Bush helped her mother get outside as quickly as she could and immediately told other members to start moving their cars away from the building. After that they just waited. Firefighters from six different departments came and worked to extinguish the fire July 16. The fire started in the bingo hall and eventually spread to the bar. “Even after all the fires were out, we were still there,� Bush said. She said they held a meeting Wednesday to discuss

what could and could not be salvaged. “It was very upbeat,� Bush said. “We had already set up a little bar for members to buy beers.� The Bloomington AMVETS organization is discussing rebuilding the bingo hall, which was only damaged. The bar where Bush sat when the fire first started was destroyed. Though the fire destroyed the smaller building with the car and damaged the larger bingo hall, the smoking area was untouched and everyone escaped without injury. “We will come back bigger and stronger,� Bush said.

said she provided “typical care.� Police said the woman told them she took them outside several times a day and played with them. Police said that based on the original case information and the amount of feces and urine that was found in the cages, that this does not ap-

pear to be true and that she most likely was gone for longer than a few days. Police then said the female admitted to being lazy and said she didn’t like to clean. Animal Control requested the owner relinquish the remaining animals to the animal shelter.

Although the woman was hesitant at first, police said she agreed and signed them over to Animal Control based on all the information the officers presented her.

The Bloomington Police Department responded at approximately 9:20 p.m. July 14 to a major traffic accident involving three cars at the intersections of Vernal Pike and State Road 37, a press release from Capt. Joe Qualters said. The BPD was dispatched July 14 to a traffic accident involving a tractor trailer at the intersection of Vernal Pike and SR 37. When officers arrived, they found a tractor trailer hauling fuel lying on its side south of the intersection and a gray passenger car with severe rear-end damage off of the roadway on the east side. At the time, the investigation determined the gray passenger vehicle was stopped at the traffic light, southbound on SR 37, when the tractor trailer failed to stop at the light and ran into the rear end of the passenger vehicle, the press release

said. The driver of the tractor trailer, a 48-year-old female, told police she was feeling ill and did not remember the accident. She was treated for minor injuries at IU Health Bloomington Hospital. The driver of the gray passenger vehicle, a 45-yearold female, suffered serious injuries and was transported to Methodist Hospital. The 14-year-old female passenger also suffered serious injuries and was transported to Riley Hospital. The third vehicle, another passenger car, was also struck in the accident resulting in minor damage to the vehicle and the 57-year-old female driver, the press release said. The accident caused a major fuel spill and State Road 37 was closed to all traffic for more than 12 hours while the scene was investigated and cleaned. — Samantha Felix

OPINION EDITOR: KELLY FRITZ | OPINION@IDSNEWS.COM

MIND THE GAP

ON THE FRITZ

The ladies are already doin’ it for themselves

America’s racial realities

CASEY FARRINGTON is a sophomore majoring in political science.

I’m exhausted of trend piece-inspired hand-wringing about the state of the collegiate hymen. I have news for every publication, most recently The New York Times, that insists on cracking this whole “hookup culture” thing wide open: female sexual desire is not a trend. Every piece focuses on women. Is hookup culture hurting women? Are women driving hookup culture? What about their MRS degree? How do they have time to hook up with randos when they have cooking, cleaning and laundry to do? I have yet to read an article about hookup culture that includes similar worries about men, an oversight that implies hurtful assumptions about both genders. The denial of female sexual desire, or the shock in discovering it, is an attitude leftover from Victorian days when women had to schedule a doctor’s appointment in order to orgasm. By focusing solely on hookup culture’s impact on women, these trend pieces reinforce the idea that women wanting sex — especially nostrings-attached sex — is an aberration that must be explained by something other than sexual desire. These pieces assume sexual desire is only caused by pressure from men, by career goals, by drugs and alcohol. These assumptions are harmful because they reinforce in young women the idea that their only role in sex is to be pleasing rather than to be pleased. This is the conditioning that leads to the scarier scenes of the Times piece, wherein women perform sexual acts just to get it done with, or because they felt like they had to. The failure to examine the men’s side is also troubling. When feminists say the patriarchy hurts men too, this is the kind of attitude we are talking about: that men are sex-crazed animals, that men’s emotions are weak, stunted or even non-existent. Hookup culture pieces tend to assume that all men would actually prefer sex without emotions. This denies male emotional depth and sympathy, furthering the cult of masculinity that insists (straight) boys don’t cry. Stereotyping male libido as uncontrollable and indiscriminate allows defense attorneys to put a rape victim’s wardrobe on trial. The argument “Look at what she was wearing! Of course I couldn’t help myself,” exists because it works. Because enough of us believe that men are physically unable to control where they stick their penises. The idea that “women only sex like this” and “men only sex like that” is actively harming us. It destroys female sexual confidence, male emotional solvency and perpetuates rape culture. And it sells papers. Until we can get it through our thick skulls that women can want sex and men can want relationships, we’ll be affronted with the same drivel next year, and the year after, until we all die, probably from the shock that college students are having sex. Or maybe the “Me Me Me Generation” will prove too incompetent to keep the world from exploding. I read about it in a trend piece. — casefarr@indiana.edu

Before I delve into one of the most controversial trials in recent history, let me make one thing clear. I can’t fit centuries’ worth of strife and debate about race in America into a single column. To have a true understanding of where our concepts of race come from and where we stand today, I’d have to do years of research. You could even argue that, as a middleclass white female, I have no right to talk about issues of race. But I’ve written many columns about these issues, because I feel that they need to be addressed, and that there aren’t enough people trying to address them. All the knowledge I’ve gained about what the minority experience is like comes from reading and hearing the perspectives of the people who do have a right to talk about race and decide what does and does not constitute racism — our nation’s minorities. I don’t claim their knowledge as my own. So say what you want about the case of George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin, but it’s absolutely impossible — and incredibly ignorant — to argue that race played no part in the shooting or the proceedings. This is because it is impossible to argue that race plays no part in the daily lives of most Americans. Before Zimmerman fatally shot Martin, their Twin Lakes neighborhood was on edge because of a string of eight burglaries, most involving young black males. Zimmerman and neighborhood residents were on the lookout for young men that looked like Martin, and many speculate this is the reason Zimmerman felt compelled to take vigilante action against him, even when advised not to. Zimmerman was playing the hero, protecting his neighborhood against the villains — generalized as young African-American men. But was this just cause for killing a child? Justifying Zimmerman’s actions with this mentality is like deciding all bicycles are evil because you’ve crashed yours a few times. Even Florida’s morally and legally murky “Stand Your Ground” law doesn’t stand up to the simple facts of the case. Martin was a fairly small minor, carrying no weapons, pitted against a much larger, older man with MMA training and a gun — a man who followed him at night. It was no contest from the beginning. “Stand Your Ground” might somehow work as a defense in the courts of Florida, but as far as much of America (and this author) is concerned, it all boils down to the toxic cycle of racism, whether Zimmerman was part-Hispanic or not. He was the product of our current racial climate, the embodiment of how much of our nation currently feels about young black men. Of course, it’s difficult to argue any of this in court. That’s why Zimmerman was acquitted: because of reasonable doubt. It was completely legal. It just wasn’t right. This is a case in which the American legal system has worked against true justice, and we must remember that just because something is law, does not necessarily make it just. In a recent examination of “Stand Your Ground,” the Tampa Bay Times found the law has been alarmingly successful for those that kill and later claim self-defense. Applications of the law

ILLUSTRATION BY KELLY FRITZ | IDS

vary wildly, they found, and almost completely depend the personal opinions of the deciding judge (or in some cases, the jury). The Times called the results showing the law’s astonishingly inconsistent application “shocking.” Although the application of the law problematically varies, the one constant in most cases has been that 70 percent of those who kill and claim “Stand Your Ground” walk free, even though the large majority of the victims were unarmed, and the large majority of the killers had guns. Killers can get off scot-free even if they shoot someone who is retreating, or leave the scene and return later with the sole intention of shooting an unarmed man — which has happened multiple times. Moreover, while roughly 59 percent of those who kill a white victim walk free, 73 percent of those who kill a black victim walk free. That’s a 14-percent difference — not an insignificant discrepancy. The numbers don’t lie. Our system of American laws has become so twisted that, in states like Florida, you can get away with killing someone if you have an expensive enough legal team and a malleable enough judge or jury. And, it can be argued, if you’re not guilty of being young and black. Supporting this theory, just after Zimmerman was acquitted, a young black Florida mother was sentenced to 20 years’ time for firing a gun in self-defense. Marissa Alexander fired warning shots to defend herself against an abusive husband attempting to attack her. The shots did not hit or injure anyone. She tried to claim “Stand Your Ground” and was denied. She now faces prison. If anything demonstrates

just how convoluted and unjust our legal system has become, it’s the juxtaposition of these two cases. A man who killed an unknown, unarmed teenager walks free, while a mother defending herself faces jail time. You can argue what you want about how the law does or does not apply to each case, but when you look at the bare, simple facts, it’s obvious something in our legal system is broken. Not guilty does not mean innocent, and applications of law do not guarantee justice. And when you put guns in the hands of people stirred into a violent frenzy and tell them they can shoot first and think later, nothing good can come of it. When the law becomes unclear, as we’ve seen throughout our nation’s history, it is the little man that suffers — minorities and historically oppressed groups of all sorts. Although privileged white Americans are hesitant to admit it, our country has a history of subjugation. In the past, laws were made to support and legalize it. Now, supposedly, laws are made to prevent it from happening. But we still find a way, because it’s this sort of oppression that keeps those making the rules in power. Even if we’re not aware we’re perpetuating it. Those that insist we should just forget about racial, sexual and other differences are usually those that haven’t had to experience the other side of things. It’s easy to suggest that black people should stop “complaining” about racism when you’ve never been black (and don’t even get me started on the myth that is “reverse racism”). We may not even be conscious of it, but everything from Supreme Court rulings to pop culture portrayals and

incarceration patterns proves how far we still have to go in the arena of American racial equality. Dr. King’s dream is nowhere close to being fulfilled. We see that poignantly in the case of Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman and in our nation’s reactions to it. Some wounds go too deep. They continue to fester. Incarceration rates for black men, especially young black men, are far higher than they are for white men. About 1 in 15 black men will be incarcerated in their lifetime, as opposed to 1 in 106 white men. This isn’t because black men are inherently more violent. This is because of the environment we, as a nation, have created over hundreds of years — an environment that puts non-white-straight-male groups at a disadvantage in many places, an environment in which being a woman, being gay or, in this case, being black, is often an incredible handicap. Especially in the case of America’s minorities, we’ve created and perpetuated a cycle of poverty, violence and incarceration that is difficult, if not impossible for some, to escape. Every day, through our laws and our media, we keep the cycle alive. The young black men who burglarized Martin and Zimmerman’s neighborhood, although responsible for their own decisions, were likely a product of this toxic environment. Zimmerman seems to be a different product of this environment — someone who has learned to fear and generalize the young black men it has created. We see this toxic cycle close to home in Indianapolis, which has been experiencing a wave of violence, with incidents usually involving young

black men targeting other young black men. I’ve seen this toxic cycle in my own neighborhood in Indy, where a neighborhood alert was once sent out after three of my African-American friends stood in my cul-de-sac and chatted with me. It’s a tricky line to tread, but the only solution to this problem lies in the middle. We cannot ignore race, but we also cannot generalize it into becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy. Both Zimmerman and Martin fell victim to the treacherous cycle, to the roles our culture has created, pitting us against one another. One ended up dead because of it. If we want change, we must resist these violent roles that our society seems determined to push us into, but respect every individual group’s history, heritage and struggles while doing so. We must be willing to admit our own mistakes and acknowledge the mistakes of our ancestors and peers. We can only live without this violence if we learn to respect our differences, and even to celebrate them, rather than living in fear and trying to assimilate those not like us, punishing them if they refuse. It’s a tall order, but a worthwhile one. Look past what you’ve been conditioned to see. Question why things are the way they are. Take the time to think — really think — and act constructively. Perhaps if we can do these things, Trayvon will not have died in vain. — kelfritz@indiana.edu

» SPIERER CONTINUED FROM PAGE B1 He said he stood on his balcony as he watched Spierer walk home alone back to her apartment complex around 4:30 a.m. Rosenbaum was the last person to see Spierer. Police reported Spierer’s keys and purse were found along a route between the two apartment complexes. Spierer’s boyfriend, Jesse Wolff, reported Spierer missing on the afternoon of June 3 when she didn’t return his phone calls or text messages. The Bloomington Police Department issued a statement noting that as of May 24, 2013, a total of 3,060 tips have been received by the Department, 166 in 2013. “Since the time of Lauren’s disappearance on June 3, 2011, the Bloomington Police Department has continued its ongoing effort to provide answers to Lauren’s family and the Bloomington community,” the statement read. “Despite being nearly two years into this investigation, information continues to come in regarding Lauren’s case and investigators diligently pursue the infor-

No amount of time passing will deter us from our responsibility and we remain dedicated to Lauren’s case.” IUPD Deputy Chief Laury Flint reiterated the Department’s diligence in continuing their service by doing extra patrols in areas that aren’t well-lit, as well as areas that are frequented by intoxicated people, being proactive in regards to keeping people safe and looking for people who need help. “We are always vigilant and trying to look for people who need help,” Flint said. “We aren’t only looking for people who are doing something wrong. We want to protect people and sometimes that even means from themselves.” Flint said the majority of the campus population are young adults ages 18-22 years old who will inevitably experiment with alcohol. Though they can’t always stop this activity, Flint cited educational programs provided to students as the key to learning to be more responsible when drinking alcohol. “People have to be willing to pay attention and

At that point, Ryan was also placed on the national donor list. Finally, in 2011 both of the Isom boys were contacted and told them they had found kidneys for them. Timmy received his kidney first, on April 26, 2011, and Ryan followed on Aug. 21, 2011. Both transplants were successful. “I remember being woken up post-op and feeling instantly better,” Timmy said. “Obviously, the pains of surgery were there, but my body didn’t ache in the same ways

Following Lauren’s disappearance, Payne said the program has added safety sessions with IUPD and have placed a bigger focus on the importance of making the right choices. Payne said in the very first session with parents and students after Lauren disappeared, the Office laid out what information they had to those concerned.

“Just looking at him today you would never believe he has gone through as much as he has,” Stacey said. Timmy has since written the family of his kidney transplant donor, whom he only knows as a 20-year-old male. In the letter, he thanked the family while also explaining to them how much the kidney improved his life. “The chances of an organ you are no longer using saving the life of someone else is incredible,” Timmy said. “It’s the ultimate act of charity and

Hoosiers gain post-draft momentum BY ROBBY HOWARD robhowar@indiana.edu

Victor Oladipo and Cody Zeller made one final mark on the IU program before leaving it. The former IU basketball players were selected No. 2 and No. 4 respectively in the NBA Draft June 27, the highest two picks in IU basketball history. In 1976, IU’s Scott May and Quinn Buckner were drafted No. 2 and No. 7, the only other time in program history two players had been selected in the top 10 of the NBA Draft. The Orlando Magic selected Oladipo and the Charlotte Bobcats picked Zeller. Oladipo will wear No. 5 for the Magic while Zeller will keep the No. 40 he wore at IU. IU had not had players drafted into the NBA since 2008 when Eric Gordon and D.J. White both went

in the first round. It is the first time in the Tom Crean era that players have been drafted. Oladipo is the highest draft pick for the Hoosiers since Isiah Thomas was taken second overall in 1981. The successful draft has re-energized IU’s program, Crean said via teleconference. “I think it just brings a different dose of energy,” he said. “I think the program’s got a lot of energy anyways. It’s one of the things we’re built on. There’s no question that it brings more energy.” The IU Coach said he was not on the phone much with recruits during the draft, but his assistants were calling and texting recruits during the draft. “We’re already recruiting in the sense to try to win as much as we can, so I don’t think it’s going to change the person we’re recruiting as much.”

“Those guys were tremendous representatives of what it means to be great people, but just be absolutely competitive nightmares on the floor. I think that’s what they are and that’s what we want to continue to recruit.” Tom Crean, IU men’s basketball coach

Crean said he prepared Oladipo to play the point guard position, as well as the off-guard position during his last season at IU because he wanted him to have that skill for the NBA. But he said what will get him on the court for the Magic is Oladipo’s defensive mentality, which Crean compared to Raja Bell. “Victor is a pure competitor,” Crean said. “When you compete, you’re going to do what it takes to be in the game and you’re going to do what it takes to keep the ball away from people.”

Drouin wins fifth NCAA high jump title at Championships

Crean said he’s very happy with the fit in Orlando for Oladipo because he believes the player development staff is strong. When asked about Zeller being a stretch post-player, Crean said that is just one of the things he believes the native of Washington, Ind., is capable of. “He’s going to be a multi-dimensional player because he can drive it, he can shoot it, he can score it in the post, he gets fouled, but he can really, really pass the ball,” Crean SEE DRAFT, PAGE C2

School records set at U.S. Swim Nationals FROM IDS REPORTS

BY ROBBY HOWARD robhowar@indiana.edu

Derek Drouin made history again June 7. Drouin won the high jump event at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Ore., his record-breaking fifth NCAA high jump title. The senior ends his career with three indoor titles, also an NCAA record, and two outdoor titles. “Most importantly, I’m just happy that I could end my collegiate career with a win,” he said. “With another title.” Drouin won the indoor title in March, giving him the sweep in the event for the year. He accomplished the same feat in 2010, when he won his first two titles. Only two other high jumpers have ever swept the event twice during their careers. Jesse Williams and Mark Boswell are the other two who have done it, but they both did it in consecutive years, whereas Drouin had a two-year gap. The Corunna, Ontario, native said he didn’t know it was a record until after he won and was preparing for an interview with ESPNU, and sports information director Kyle Johnson informed the ESPN

staffers that it was a record. After narrowing it down to Drouin and Kansas State’s Erik Kynard, who had won the last two outdoor high jump titles, Drouin missed his first attempt at 2.31-meters, with Kynard clearing the bar. Drouin knew he had to do something to get himself back in it, so he passed his next two attempts and elected to raise the bar to 2.34-meters. “I would’ve had to make 2.34 to

make it anyways to get back into the lead to win,” Drouin said. “It didn’t matter if I made 2.31 on my second or my third, I still would’ve found myself behind him. I just decided to pass and take the attempts at 2.34.” On his second attempt, Drouin cleanly flew over the bar. The rest was up to Kynard. SEE DROUIN, PAGE C2

IU swimmers Lindsay Vrooman and Steve Schmuhl each set school records June 25-29 at the Phillips 66 U.S. Swimming Nationals at the IU Natatorium in Indianapolis. Vrooman, a senior from Baden, Pa., recorded new school marks in the 400-, 800- and 1,600-meter freestyle events. Schmuhl, a junior from Broomfield, Colo., broke his own record in the 400-meter individual medley. Five athletes competed for IU at the national competition which determines the U.S. National Team for the World Championships in Barcelona, Spain. None of the Hoosiers qualified for the national team, but seniors Cody Miller and James Wells were added to Team USA for the World University Games during the competition. Overall, IU had five top-10 performances during the week. Wells had two, finishing ninth in the 50-meter backstroke June 27. He won the consolation final in the event, just missing the championship heat. He followed that performance with a 10th-place finish June 28 in the 100-meter backstroke. Schmuhl had the best finish of all the Hoosiers, touching the wall

fifth June 27 in the 400-meter I.M. in a school-record time of 4:16.55. Earlier in the day, he recorded the third fastest time in school history in prelims. He now has the three fastest times in the event in school history. Vrooman finished sixth in the 400-meter freestyle June 28 with a time of 4:11.16, the second-fastest in school history. Miller recorded the first top-10 finish for the Hoosiers when he finished the 200-meter breastroke in 2:12.91 to finish sixth in the event June 26. Vrooman’s other two school records came June 25, in which she swam 8:37.87 to finish 10th in the prelims of the 800-meter freestyle, and June 24 when she finished 11th in the 1,500-meter freestyle with a time of 16:40.94. Both of those marks also bested Nikki White’s 2009 performances also. In the 1,600-meter, Vrooman’s time was more than eight seconds faster than White’s previous record. Sophomore Haley Lips added the second-fastest time in IU history in the 200-meter butterfly June 25 with a time of 2:14.25, finishing 19th in prelims. —Robby Howard

» DROUIN CONTINUED FROM PAGE C1 The Wildcat senior failed on three attempts to clear 2.34-meters. Last Saturday at the Prefontaine Classic, Kynard and Drouin had both leaped over 2.36-meters. Drouin said he held his breath until Kynard didn’t clear on his third attempt. “I was still kind of expecting him to come up with a big jump,” he said. “I was a little nervous. I certainly wasn’t celebrating or thinking it was over.” After that, Kynard congratulated Drouin on winning the title. But Drouin wasn’t done. His first goal entering the competition was to win the title. His next goal was to break the NCAA record of 2.38-meters. He wasted no time, putting the bar directly to 2.39-meters. “I didn’t want to share the record,” he said. “I just went for it all outright.”

» DRAFT CONTINUED FROM PAGE C1 said. “When you have upside like that, I don’t think it’s any question you can get better.” Crean said he’s not worried about Oladipo and Zeller changing in the NBA. He said the players’ team mentality is what’s going to help them show leadership. “They’ll go in and blend, but they’ll also go in, they won’t be afraid to compete,” Crean said. “They won’t be afraid to do the best.”

He said that he would determine if he would take three attempts pending on how his first attempt went. After just clipping the bar in what he called his best jump of the day, he decided to give it a shot. On his final attempt, Drouin had another first. He started a clap and managed to get the crowd behind him as he went for history. “I generally don’t do that,” he said. “Actually, I’ve never done it in my life.” Drouin said he decided to do it because it was his final attempt as a college athlete. But after elevating for his final time as a Hoosier, the bar came down with him as he hit the mat. He couldn’t break the record. At least not that record. Drouin stood up, applauded the crowd, and walked away from his college career as a champion — the most decorated high jump champion in NCAA history.

And that’s the sort of player Crean wants to continue to see coming into his program at IU. “Those guys were tremendous representatives of what it means to be great people, but just be absolutely competitive nightmares on the floor,” Crean said. “I think that’s what they are and that’s what we want to continue to recruit.” “The energy is just going to continue to grow in here. It’s what’s great.”

Local to be 2015 Walker Cup Captain BY ROBBY HOWARD robhowar@indiana.edu

John “Spider” Miller’s office reflects his three biggest loves: family, golf and beer. Everywhere he looks around his workspace at Best Beers, Inc. in Bloomington, he is surrounded by pictures and trophies that showcase a career full of memories that keep him smiling and chuckling. His business cards lie cradled between two golden golf balls. Three golf clubs lean against his desk, ready for action. The plaque from his induction to the Indiana Golf Association Hall of Fame occupies the wall space to his right. But it’s the large photograph on the opposite wall that Spider really cherishes from his career. It’s a picture of him with Arnold Palmer standing sideby-side at hole No. 12, part of the historic “Amen Corner,” at the 1999 Masters in Augusta, Ga. The two were paired together for one round. “It was great,” Spider said. “Arnold’s the best. It was great. You couldn’t pick a better person to play with than him.” Golf has given Spider the chance to play what he considers the top courses in the country, but soon he will venture beyond American borders. He recently found out he’ll be the captain for Team USA at the Royal Lytham & St. Annes Golf Club in England,

site of the 2015 Walker Cup. On July 6, the United States Golf Association announced Spider will be captain of the U.S. team for the 2015 match, featuring the top amateur golfers from the U.S., Great Britain and Ireland. For a man that has played in two Masters tournaments, one Walker Cup and won multiple state and national amateur tournaments, it’s just one more memory awaiting his office walls. “I was excited and happy and honored and humbled,” the 63-year-old said. “It was great. I was very excited.” Spider, one of 11 children, earned his nickname from climbing around the shelves at his dad’s hardware store. He was always active. He started playing golf when he was five- or sixyears-old, learning how to play at the then-nine-hole Muscatatuck Golf Course, but didn’t play competitively until he was in his 20s. Before golf, he raced motorcycles in his hometown of North Vernon, Ind., and only stopped when he ran out of money in college. When he turned 21, he could pursue another passion: drinking beer. It went hand-in-hand with golf from the beginning for Spider. “When I quit racing motorcycles, I started playing golf. And I started drinking then too,” he said. “I started drinking beer. When you play golf, you drink beer.” Spider owns Best Beers,

Junior Cameron Coffman is one of the potential quarterbacks for the 2013 season. Sophomores Nate Sudfeld and Tre Roberson are looking to unseat Coffman as starting quarterback.

Quarterback battle remains ‘unsettled’ BY EVAN HOOPFER ehoopfer@indiana.edu

CHICAGO — IU plays Indiana State in Aug. 29 under the lights, but who will be under center is still unknown. “We’re unsettled at quarterback,” IU Coach Kevin Wilson said July 24 at Big Ten Media Day. “Got three guys in a dead heat ... Haven’t seen someone separate through spring.” Sophomores Nate Sudfeld and Tre Roberson will try to unseat junior Cam Coffman, who started ten games last year at quarterback. “I really don’t know what it’s going to be, the deciding factor or anything like that,” senior wide receiver Kofi Hughes said. “I think it’s going to be really tough. But like I said, I think our whole team is confident in Nate, Cam and Tre. And whoever they want to throw out there, I think it’s going to be really good.” Roberson, last season’s initial starter, lost the job when he broke his leg against Massachusetts in the second game of the season. He subsequently received a medical redshirt, and Coff-

man started the rest of the season with Sudfeld seeing action in seven games. Despite leading the conference with 311.2 yards per game, Wilson wasn’t impressed with his team’s response to the Roberson injury. “We also did not handle the adversity of losing our starting quarterback,” he said. “We led the league in passing, blah, blah, blah, all that junk. Once our quarterback got hurt, we lost five straight games.” Coffman stepped in and averaged 248.5 yards a game with a passer efficiency rating of 123.87. However, he was pulled in many games for Sudfeld, a 6-foot-5-inch California native who was statistically more efficient than Coffman. Sudfeld had a higher completion rate, and his average of 12.4 yards per completion was higher than Coffman’s 11.1 figure. No matter who is leading the Hoosier offense, Wilson stressed the importance of his quarterback to be elite. “For our program to win, have the year we’re capable of having, we need to be dynamic at quarterback,”

“For our program to win, have the year we’re capable of having, we need to be dynamic at quarterback. We can’t be average and let the complementary pieces give us the victories that we need for our program and our fans and alums and school.” Kevin Wilson, IU football coach

Wilson said. “We can’t be average and let the complementary pieces give us the victories that we need for our program and our fans and alums and school.” Having great intangibles is vital, Hughes added. “I just want to really make sure they can command the offense,” Hughes said. This season is different from Wilson’s previous two, he said. All three players can play at a high rate. “The first year, I didn’t know if we could throw it in the ocean,” Wilson said.

Berbary adjusts to 1st head coaching job at IU BY ROBBY HOWARD robhowar@indiana.edu

Several months later, it still hasn’t sunk in for Amy Berbary. The new IU women’s soccer coach has been so occupied with getting things started at her first college head coaching job that she hasn’t even processed she is IU’s head coach. “There’s been a whirlwind,� she said. “I feel like all of us have been working so hard. I think it might set in that first time when I’m standing on the sideline in that first game, but to tell you the truth, I really haven’t thought about it that way. I’ve really just been trying to get things organized and prepare for the fall.� Berbary came to Bloomington and officially took control of the program Feb. 18. She had from then until April 20 to meet with her new team and get to know them. Per NCAA rules, she can’t have contact with them during the summer. “I cannot believe I’ve been here for five months,� she said. “It has absolutely flown by. Like I blinked my eyes and we’re approaching (the) season. I’m really pumped about that.� Berbary said after she filled the two assistant coaching positions on her staff, she’s spent most of her time this summer recruiting to finish the 2014 class and start working on the 2015 class. But she called the twomonth period where she got to talk to the current team she had when she first arrived “very important.� “They need to understand some of our goals and some of the coaching staff ’s expectations as far as fitness goes and just getting

Amy Berbary to know them and teaching our system and trying to figure out which system we’re going to play with the players we have,� Berbary said. “Within that short time, that was our immediate goal. Our immediate goal was really to let them know our expectations and then figure out our system and style of play that we’re going to play in the fall before we add in the freshmen.� Berbary inherited five seniors, including goalkeeper Shannon Flower, eighth on IU’s all-time saves list, forward Lisa Nouanesengsy, the only player in IU history to record two hat tricks and tied for the team lead in goals last year and midfielder Rebecca Candler, who set a new IU record for assists in a season last year. “I inherited a great, great bunch of girls, especially the upperclassmen,� Berbary said. “I think they’re going to be good leaders for us and they’re all focused on our immediate goal, which is to make the Big Ten Tournament and participate in that. That’s our immediate goal for this team. With their leadership over the younger players, I think that’s what we’re trying to go for.� IU last made the Big Ten Tournament in 2007.

Junior Lisa Nouanesengsy dribbles at an Ohio University defender during a 2012 match at Bill Armstrong Stadium.

As an assistant coach for four years and an associate head coach in her final year at Auburn, Berbary helped guide the Tigers to five consecutive appearances in the NCAA Tournament. Auburn also won the SEC Tournament in 2011. Berbary hired assistants Sergio Gonzalez and Benji Walton, both of whom Berbary has worked with in the past, in hopes of turning the Hoosier program around. “You have to start somewhere,� Berbary said of her team’s goal to make the Big Ten Tournament. “As a staff, all three of us have won conference championships in various conferences. We know the mentality that it takes, we just need our players to buy in and trust in

what we’re doing. “We’ll take small steps and we’ll make small goals and they’ll get bigger as we start to progress. I think this team has the potential to do that, the question is how hard are they willing to work to get to that immediate goal. Because once you get there, anything can happen.� With offensive weapons in Candler and Nouanesengsy, Berbary said she wants to try to keep the ball more on the offensive side this year to get it to those playmakers. “We’re going to try to play a little more possession oriented, a little more possession style,� she said. “A little bit more attacking, move the ball around, get the ball up top to our creative players

» GOLF CONTINUED FROM PAGE C2 Spider’s life has always been about working. Although some players who compete in the Walker Cup eventually turn professional, as he points out by listing all the pros he knows who are currently on tour, he never considered making the jump. That wasn’t for him. He’s a businessman. “I have to work,” he said. “It never entered my mind. I’m better off working than trying to play golf for a living.” He put himself through college at IU, working at the IU golf course. He said he didn’t really have a title there. He just did everything, ranging from picking up balls, to fixing golf cars, to working at the pro shop and driving range. “Whatever it took,” he said. He started at IU in 1968 but left after two years to work and earn money. He came back in 1974, working full-time and going to school part-time. After years of hard work, he finally thought he had graduated and earned his degree from SPEA, only to find out he still needed one more threecredit course “in the humanities, of all things.” Golf would save him again. “I was fortunate enough that the professor played a lot of golf,” he said. “You can figure it out from there.” “He took care of me though,” Spider said. “I graduated and got my degree.” Degree in hand, he started his beer business. In 1978, he started his busi-

ness back in North Vernon, about an hour away from Bloomington. A few years later, he would start playing competitively in tournaments, slowly earning invites to amateur events in the ’80s. In 1991, he worked up enough capital to buy Best Beers and moved his family back to Bloomington, where he still had several golf friends. Five years later, he won his first big golf tournament, capturing the U.S. Mid Amateur title in Hartford, Conn., and earning a spot in the 1997 Masters. To win, he had to finish in the top three of about 150 Indiana entrants to advance to the tournament, then advance through two medal rounds in the top 64, then win out in head-to-head tournament style match play. “I had to change my airline (ticket) everyday because I kept thinking I was going to get beat,” Spider said, chuckling. “The odds are that you won’t even make the match play. Once you do, you keep having to edge it out. The first time I won, I was gone for so long, I knew the maids at the hotel by heart. I knew them personally, I was there for so damn long.” He met Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus there in 1997. When he remembers playing there, he talks about the people, not the actual competition. “There’s a number (of holes) I didn’t do very damn well on, I can tell you that,” Spider said, laughing his way through his sentences. “I can’t

pick one out. It’s easier to pick the ones out I didn’t do very well on than the ones I did do well on.” After winning the MidAm again in 1998, he got the chance to go back to the Masters and make more memories. When he won the Mid-Am in ’98, he became the oldest player at the time to ever achieve the feat, conquering the NCR Country Club’s South Course in Kettering, Ohio. It gave him the chance to play practice rounds at Augusta with his good friend Fuzzy Zoeller, who also grew up in Indiana. And he got to make that special memory with Arnold Palmer. Did the two talk during their round? “Arnold? Of course,” Spider said, letting out a deep belly laugh. “Yeah, Arnold is great. He’ll talk about anything you want to talk about, business — in fact, he’s a great business man.” Asked if he was nervous when he stepped to the first tee with Palmer, Spider paused briefly. “Of course!” On his back wall, Spider has a couple of clubs he bought from Palmer, and a signed copy of one of Palmer’s books mounted on the wall. “I was very lucky,” he said. “I had a lot of fun playing.” Through all of his golf endeavors, Spider said he’s always had the support of his wife, Kathy. He couldn’t resist but to make another joke about how

in his office, he made a point to also explain the pictures of his four grandkids, which sit directly beneath that picture. While he had fun playing on that large stage, alongside Palmer, he knew he had another life here in Bloomington. “I had a good time,” Spider said. “I knew at the end of the day, though, I would be coming back and going to work and all the rest of them would go on to the tour. It was fun.” Spider still golfs frequently.

she has dealt with some of his longer absences while away at golf tournaments during the years. “She’s probably happy to get rid of me, truth be known,” he said sarcastically, as pictures of his family account for the other half of the pictures around his office. “I’m sure I just get in the way most of the time.” Looking at the picture of him and Palmer that he sees whenever he looks to his left

Smith named National Baseball Coach of the Year FROM IDS REPORTS

IU Coach Tracy Smith was named National Coach of the Year by the National Collegiate Baseball Writer’s Association June 15 in Omaha, Neb. Smith led the Hoosiers to their first College World Series appearance this season.

The team has also recorded a record number of wins against D-I opponents and won the outright Big Ten regular season title for the first time in 81 years. The Hoosiers followed that with a Big Ten Tournament Championship, the first time the team had ever won both in the same season.

IU achieved a national ranking as well this year. The team hosted its first regional in school history and made just its third appearance in the NCAA Tournament.

He said anytime you get to golf, “even if it’s only 18 holes,” it’s a good day. When walking around the warehouse, he asked some of the employees if they are playing yet. He’s always ready to take new players out on the course. As for what beer he takes when he’s at the Bloomington Country Club, he said as long as its one of his beers, it doesn’t matter. “I’m not afraid to buy, I’ll tell you that.”

Ferrell, Sheehey return from Russia BY MAX MCCOMBS mccombsm@indiana.edu

Kevin “Yogi� Ferrell might have commanded a squad of collegiate all-stars, played against teams from around the globe and proudly worn “USA� on his chest, but something else from his recent trip to Russia might stand out most of all. The Kremlin smelled funny. “I know I will never forget it,� the rising sophomore guard said. This summer, while former teammates of Ferrell and rising senior forward Will Sheehey were embarking on professional careers and future teammates were back in Bloomington familiarizing themselves with Cook Hall, the pair traveled to Kazan, Russia, as part of Team USA at the World University Games earlier in July. “It was a great honor to represent my country,� Ferrell said. “When I put that jersey on, I got chills. I felt like I was representing everyone back home.� Living in an athlete village Sheehey compared in size to IU’s entire campus, the pair was in the presence of athletes from 136 different countries.

Sheehey said the opportunity to immerse himself in other cultures stood out more than any on-court moment. An admitted adventurous eater, Sheehey said he gained a reputation among teammates as the man willing to try any of the unfamiliar delicacies at least once. But ultimately the two Hoosiers were there to play basketball, even if they found it to be a different strain than the college game. “It’s difficult to explain, but the game of basketball is completely different over there, the way everyone moves, the way screens are set,� Sheehey said. “When you are playing in the Big Ten, you kind of know when a screen is going to come and where it is going to come from, but overseas they set screens in the middle of the lane. You have guys running out of bounds. It’s wild.� Couple that with international officiating that is much more strict on travel calls, and the Americans found themselves facing a steep learning curve. Ferrell went so far as to blame one of Team USA’s losses on the rule, while Sheehey professed a preference for the American style of play. “You can’t use your hands at all, but you can use your

chest and body the heck out of a guy, so that was the kind of stuff we had to get used to,� Sheehey said. “The big guys really struggled throughout the whole thing trying to learn to not use their hands. Traveling calls were an absolute disaster, but we got used to it after a while. The travels were called really tight.� A pair of upset losses to Canada and Australia kept Team USA from medaling, though Sheehey said he thought the team played its best ball once they were out of medal contention. In its six wins, Team USA won by at least 18 points each time and by as many as 94. “It’s very tough to lose a game representing your country,� Ferrell said. “Even over there, everyone still showed us a lot of love, even the fans. We had a lot of fans come out to our games. But the players on the other teams hated us. It got real chippy sometimes.� Not only did Ferrell and Sheehey find themselves among teams from across the world, but they also found themselves making friends with their new teammates on Team USA, an array of players they were more used to playing against, such as Michigan

“It was a great honor to represent my country. When I put that jersey on, I got chills. I felt like I was representing everyone back home.� Kevin “Yogi�Ferrell, rising sophomore guard

State’s Adreian Payne. Ferrell and Sheehey were roommates with Louisville’s Luke Hancock and Colorado point guard Spencer Dinwiddie. Coached by Davidson’s Bob McKillop with Michigan’s John Beilein and South Carolina’s Frank Martin as assistants, the team was determined only weeks earlier at a training camp in Colorado Springs, Colo., the 12-man squad emerging from 26 players invited to the camp. “We were both excited to make the team,� Sheehey said. “Yogi was playing absolutely fantastic in Colorado so I knew he was a lock and it was more me that was on the fence. For us both to get our names called and to play there was a great experience for us.� While Team USA was still new as a team by the Games’ beginning, other countries boasted teams with years of playing experience together. Ferrell admitted that put the Americans at a disadvantage. “You have to pay much

more attention to detail because those teams have been playing together for so long and they run their sets to a ‘T,’� Ferrell said. Both players said they eventually found their niche on the team, though, Ferrell as one of the primary point guards along with Dinwiddie and Sheehey as a specialist at moving without the ball to set up scoring opportunities. With the Games concluded, Ferrell and Sheehey are now back in Bloomington with their teammates for the upcoming season. Though they had spent some time with the six-player incoming freshman class before leaving for Colorado, the two probable captains said they sense a change for the better occurred while they were overseas. “The guys who have been here throughout the summer and who have developed as leaders on this team are going to keep doing so because it’s best for our team to have a group of leaders than just one or two,� Sheehey said. “It’s really exciting to come back and

see other guys do the things that I would want them to do. “The strides that the freshmen have made throughout just six weeks has been absolutely incredible. You can tell by their work ethic that they are starting to change. Every guy coming out of high school doesn’t really know exactly what it’s like. To see them embrace the work that needs to be put in and for them to see results is really good.� They are not the only ones. Partly as a result of his Russian excursion, Sheehey said he sees a change in his own game as well. “I think mentally I’ve become a better player over the summer,� he said. “I’ve learned a lot this offseason, not just through my Team USA experience but also here at school being the oldest guy. My freshman and sophomore year, I was so scared of the older guys all I wanted was to play hard and show them that I could do that. Now that I’m older, I can sit down and really analyze the game. I think mentally I’ve learned a lot.�

ROBBY’S RAMBLINGS

This year has to be different for IU football CHICAGO — No one has really ever expected much out of the IU football team. During my time at IU, they’ve long been a joke among students. From all indications at Big Ten Media Day in Chicago July 24, this year is different. And for IU Coach Kevin Wilson, it has to be. “Saying that we expect to make a bowl game is a complete understatement,� senior kicker Mitch Ewald said. “Our goal is not to make a bowl game. Our goal is to be consistently one of the two,

three best teams in the Big Ten year in and year out. “That’s our goal. To say that we’ll just make a bowl game, that’s an understatement.� For Wilson, now in his third season, this is the year that people will start to judge him. He got a pass his first year when he went 1-11. That wasn’t his team, and it was a transition year. Last year, he showed that he had made some strides with the players, as the team won two Big Ten games, but still finished 4-8. Again, he

got a pass with it just being the second year, and losing incumbent starting quarterback Tre Roberson in the second game. Now, with a roster familiar with Wilson and the expectations, there is no reason for this team to be a joke anymore. “We are, though, a veteran team,� Wilson said. “I think we’re going to be fifth or sixth in the country with returning guys with starts. So we do have guys that are battle tested. “We have guys that are

getting more mature, but I do think we’re a young team growing and there’s a lot of growth potential with our football program in these next few years.� But for the three players Wilson brought with him to Chicago — seniors Kofi Hughes, Greg Heban and Ewald — there’s no time for the future. They want to win now. And there’s no reason for them not to. “We expect to be great, to play great, to win a lot of football games,� Ewald said.

“We owe it to the University to be a good Big Ten football team.� During the last two years, Hughes has noticed a lot of changes around the team instituted by Wilson. What has excited Hughes, who was not recruited by Wilson, but by former IU Coach Bill Lynch, is that the players who are there are a “brotherhood.� All want to be there. Wilson finally has his team. “Coach Wilson, when he came in, he said he was go-

ing to set a standard,� Hughes said. “He asked us, ‘What does it take to be a man of Indiana football?’ and we really didn’t know what to say.� Now the team knows what to say. The team goes to class. SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE C7

Âť FOOTBALL CONTINUED FROM PAGE C6 Players have meals together. They hang out. They clean their area after they’re done. They clean the locker room. They get after it in practice. “I think we really changed IU football,â€? Hughes said. “I know that when I was a freshman, I came in, it was the stereotypical kind of team. You’re a freshman, the seniors are seniors. You don’t really socialize that much type of thing. “I’ll say right now, I’ll have dinner with (freshman defensive back Rashard) Fant or hang out with (freshman defensive back Antonio) Allen. I’ve got (freshman wide receiver) Isaac Griffith at my house playing video games.â€? Watching Heban’s face light up while talking about the athletic freshmen defensive players, hearing Wilson gush about the development of sophomore running back Tevin Coleman and listening as Hughes spoke about how he enjoys rallying a talented group of receivers shows this team has nothing but positives entering the season. “There’s a lot of good energy with what’s going on,â€? Wilson said. None of the players were joking around July 24. They really believe it’s different. There’s no excuse for mediocrity this season. There’s no reason for this season to be a joke. Now, it’s time to see those results on the field. — robhowar@indiana.edu

Sinclair enjoys experience in China BY ROBBY HOWARD robhowar@indiana.edu

It quickly became obvious to Aulani Sinclair that she wasn’t in Southern Indiana anymore. One of the biggest differences, besides the population, between the former IU forward’s hometown of Eminence, Ind., and cities in China? The driving. “I don’t know how to explain it,� she said. “We have rules in America, and even in Cloverdale on the roads (there are rules). There, I don’t think there’s any rules. People can cut people off, swerve into different lanes, do U-turns wherever they want, pedestrians walk in the road wherever they want.� Sinclair got back to the United States July 1 after an 11-game trip to four different cities in China as part of the NetScouts Team USA Women’s All-Stars. She was named Tournament MVP of the nine-game Four Nations Tournament. It was a trip she never expected to make, and a trip that took her over 6,500 miles away from the small-town of Eminence, Ind., where she learned to play basketball on her gravel driveway. “When I was younger,� Sinclair said, “if someone would’ve told me, ‘If you work hard and stay with basketball and give it everything,’ if they would’ve

told me I’d end up at IU, my dream school, and then even having the opportunity to go to China and do all these other things, I would’ve never really believed it.� Upon her return to Eminence, Ind., she’s already started imparting her worldly knowledge on the kids in the small town an hour north of Bloomington. “Now I think it’s cool, because there are kids from Eminence who are my friends’ little brothers and sisters who are like, ‘Oh, Aulani did this so I can do it too.’ I talk to them and I’m like, ‘If I can do it, then there’s no reason you guys can’t.’� Sinclair thought she would only see the Great Wall of China from the inside pages of her history books at Eminence High School and IU. Now, she’s walked across it. “Saw that, walked on it, took a lot of pictures,� Sinclair said of the Great Wall. “It was great just to see everything. You hear about it and read about it in your history classes and stuff, but actually going there and being able to touch it and walk on it, it felt surreal. It was really cool.� While in China, she also visited the Forbidden City and Beijing, where the team saw the Bird’s Nest and all the Olympic venues from the 2008 summer games. “The whole experience was great,� she said. “Just seeing the whole new different

culture was really interesting and a great experience. And then just meeting all the other girls from all over that I was playing with and against. Meeting them on a personal level and getting to know them, getting advice from them. A couple of the girls on our team were vets and they’ve played overseas for a couple of years. They just kind of gave us the ins and outs of overseas life and what to expect. It was just a great experience all around.�

“Just growing up, I never even thought that would be an option for me to be honest with you. Playing college ball, that was my thing, and if it was at IU, that was great when I was younger.� Aulani Sinclair, year, postion

In the nine-game Four Nations Tournament, Team USA went 9-0. Sinclair averaged 11 points to garner the All-Tournament MVP honors. She was also named the

MVP of the three tournament games in Pingxiang and was named to the All-Tournament team after the three SEE SINCLAIR, PAGE C9

Etherington shifting into leadership role BY MAX MCCOMBS mccombsm@indiana.edu

Despite having played a grand total of 124 minutes for IU, third-year forward Austin Etherington found himself the unlikely veteran among five Hoosiers assembled July 16 at Assembly Hall. With IU’s rash of player turnover — two early departures to the NBA, two transfers, and three seniors lost to graduation — since a season-ending loss to Syracuse, Etherington is suddenly the second-longest-tenured scholarship player on a roster with more scholarship newcomers than returnees. He trails only senior forward Will Sheehey in that regard, but with Sheehey’s obligations to Team USA in the World University Games, Etherington has been the elder statesman during much of the team’s offseason practice. “We have seven new guys here, so it’s been a lot of work for everybody to come in, learn their roles and get better,” Etherington said. “We’re working out every morning and afternoon, so everyone is putting that work in and getting better.” Sitting dead center among four teammates at a cramped table, Etherington was the clear ringleader as he fielded questions ranging from his impressions of the new freshmen — “very athletic” — to the health of his left knee. If IU coaches had their druthers, Etherington surely would have played more than his 47 minutes last season, but a fractured patella suffered Dec. 8 against Central Connecticut State quashed those plans and ended his

» SINCLAIR CONTINUED FROM PAGE C7 games in Chengdu. She scored a high of 22 points, connecting on 6-of-12 3-pointers, against Hungary in the team’s second game. She said she started some games, but the coach rotated a different starting five in for every game. She said everyone played about the same amount of minutes. Coming into the tournament, the coach had told her that she would be the 3-point shooter on the team. But as the teams from Hungary, Australia and China saw her play, they began to defend that shot. “I had to create my shot in other ways,” Sinclair said, “coming off curls and getting to the basket or getting fouled. I did shoot a lot of 3s,

season. The injury occurred soon enough in the season for Etherington to be eligible for a medical redshirt, making him a sophomore once again this coming season. Between that, Cody Zeller’s departure to the NBA and Remy Abell’s transfer to Xavier, IU will have no scholarship juniors this year. The forward said he is not back to full strength yet, but is participating in most drills. The last step will be 5-on-5 scrimmages, which Etherington hopes to participate in once players return from a short break in the coming weeks. Etherington dealt with a knee injury before in high school and said he can now draw on that experience in his current recovery. “The big thing is just the mindset and being able to go out there and not worry about your knee,” he said. “That’s something I have been better with. The first time I took a charge in workouts it was the first step because I knew I could do it again and not worry about my knee ... The physical part with my knee and my strength is coming on pretty well.”

this team, and I am able to just come in and everyone sometimes is looking for advice and sometime I can take advice from the older guys like Yogi, Austin, Will and Jeremy. We go back and forth and bounce ideas off of each other.” Gordon, now at his third school after beginning his career at Liberty, brings a familiar last name to Hoosier fans. His older brother, Eric, played a single season at IU in 2007-08 before jumping to the NBA. A third brother, Eron, is an IU recruiting target in the 2016 class. All three suited up for North Central High School in Indianapolis. “I’ve been to two different institutions, but me being here at home, I can go home,” Gordon said. “And the expectations in the weight room are a lot different than I ever expected.” Gordon averaged 10.1 points per game last season for the Sun Devils and 14.4 as a freshman for the Flames.

STUDENT SEASON TICKETS REDUCED FROM 10 TO 8 GAMES Information on the IU ticket website recently showed that student season ticket holders will now only receive tickets to eight games instead of 16 and the price for the basketball/ football season ticket package has dropped from $320 to $200. The change in price reflects the loss in games, as each game is $15. Sources within IU Athletics said roughly 14,500 student season tickets have been sold thus far. Students who purchased the $320 plan will have the cost reduced to $200 on their bursar bill.

VONLEH ADDS 20 POUNDS SINCE MAY ARRIVAL

taken to the strength training programs at IU and added roughly 20 pounds since arriving in May. “I think it has helped me a lot,” Vonleh said. “I can bump guys off better and I can finish stronger.” While Gordon noted he is much older than most of his teammates, Vonleh is in an opposite situation. Still more than a month short of his 18th birthday, he vowed not to let his youth prevent him from being a physical presence. “I just like to be in the gym all the time getting better,” he said. “I’m going to be playing against a lot of guys who are a lot older than me next year, so I need to get physically ready, mentally ready and just keep getting better.”

Then-freshman Austin Etherington speaks with the media in 2011. The third-year sophomore is the second longest tenured player on this coming season’s IU roster.

on to replace the production of players such as Zeller, Derek Elston and Christian Watford down low. Joining him in that endeavor will be sophomore forward Hanner MosqueraPerea. An early-season suspension largely kept him from establishing a true niche in the rotation last season, but the Colombia native said he nonetheless feels the pressure this year to be not only a contributor, but a leader as well. “We have a huge responsibility because I know how Cody and Derek took care of us last year,” he said. “So I feel like I have to step up with the new guys like Noah and Luke (Fischer) because they are going to be doing the same thing we had been doing. It’s a huge responsibility.” As such, Mosquera-Perea said the off-season workouts have paid noticeable dividends for him, particularly in

his shooting and timing. “I feel that I have made a lot of improvements,” he said. “I’ve been working out with the coaches, doing new things, because I’m going to have to step up and do a lot of new things for our team this year. So I’ve been working really hard and getting a lot better.” In a pinch last season, Hollowell was sometimes pressed into undersized post duty himself, and he said he has continued to refine those skills even with an eye on a more well-rounded role this season. “I need to push myself to get better with my ball handling, get better with my shot, and post moves,” Hollowell said. “I feel like I have the ball in my hands a lot more and looking to score and rebound, and be an offensive factor for us to score points.”

While Sheehey may be the team’s longest-tenured player, he is not the squad’s sole senior. Along with the team’s six freshmen, senior guard Evan Gordon has also been a newcomer in offseason practices this summer after transferring from Arizona State. “These guys are a totally different group than I have ever experienced,” Gordon said. “There are no egos on

The other newcomer making his debut to IU media was freshman forward Noah Vonleh, the jewel of IU’s incoming freshmen class. “He is a real good player,” sophomore forward Jeremy Hollowell said. “The biggest thing that I have seen is that he is willing to learn, always willing to improve his game, he is very coachable and works hard day in and day out. He is always going to go hard and give you his best.” Already an imposing figure listed at 242 pounds and a shade under 6-feet-10-inches at the Nike Hoops Summit, Vonleh said he has quickly

but I scored in other ways as well.” As a shooter, she had to adjust to a 3-point line that was further away from the basket, a Chinese ball, which she said had different grooves, and some different views on refereeing. “The refereeing over there was completely different than what we’re used to over here,” she said. “A lot of travels were not called. A lot of fouls were not called. It was just very, very different I guess you could say.” But she appreciated having the opportunity to experience all these differences, as she plans to continue to play professional basketball overseas. She has hired an agent who is looking to find the best fit and best team for her somewhere overseas. If she ends up in China, she might

have to get accustomed to the food. She said the team once escaped to a Pizza Hut they found nearby for dinner because everyone wanted food that reminded them of home. Once inside, she said it took the team nearly 15 minutes to try to get past the language barrier and communicate what kind of pizza they wanted. “The food was very different,” she said. “The noodles were pretty safe to eat. A lot of the stuff had different flavorings than we were used to.

Read the full recommendations at idsnews.com/weekend. ‘Ally McBeal’ Season 4 Yes. Just the 4th season will do the trick. You’ll catch on quickly to the dynamic of the show without having to suffer through the awkwardness of a sitcom’s first season. ‘Titanic: Blood and Steel’ The series is less about the Titanic and more about the characters behind its planning and construction. I can’t help but see “Downton Abbey” in everything from the incredible cast to the brilliant writing and nuanced storylines about the dynamics of class and politics. ‘Kiss Me’ This Swedish film with English subtitles revolves around two women who fall in love when their parents become engaged. It isn’t about sex as the opening scene might suggest. It is about finding

satisfaction in every aspect of your life, even when it seems like you’ll never be comfortable. ‘Struck by Lightning’ As a closet Gleek, I admit I had that blind dedication people often get when one of their favorite musicians or writers puts out something new, but by the end of it I found I had laughed like an idiot for over an hour, and then cried for the last five minutes, left staring at credits while holding my breath. ‘The Giant Mechanical Man’ After deciding they need to take a deep breath and start over, both Tim and Janice go in search of a job at the zoo, thus setting up the perfect circumstance for our wayward spirits to meet and fall in love. The chemistry between both the characters and the actors is fun to watch. ‘Last Night’ The movie opens delicately, scenes cutting between Joanna and Michael (Keira Knightley, Sam Worthington) in the back of a cab, going out to Michael’s office party and coming home. There is an obvious tension between them, and Joanna does not seem to be happy with her husband. The very morning Michael leaves town, Joanna’s ex-boyfriend shows up for only one night, asking Joanna to dinner.

WFHB celebrates

20 years BY KATE THACKER kmthacke@indiana.edu

COURTESY PHOTO

Two young volunteers take an on-air break during WFHB’s early days of operation. The community radio station was founded in 1993.

B

efore instant streaming and digital downloads, Mark Hood and Jeff Morris had a plan to broadcast Bloomington’s music to a wider audience. Twenty-eight years after the initial idea for the local radio station, WFHB celebrated 20 years on the air this summer. The vision for the station began in 1974, and in 1975 a small group founded the Community Radio Project to help launch WFHB. WFHB Music Director Jim

Manion said he met Morris — now the station’s engineer — and Hood as an undergraduate student during an engineering workshop at the music studio where Hood worked. “They were all involved with the local music scene, and so was I as a young IU student,” Manion said. “I grew up around broadcasting and was very attracted to the idea.” Manion recalled attending a benefit to help raise money for the radio station at The Bluebird Nightclub on July 10, 1975 — 10 days be-

fore his 21st birthday. After 18 years of planning and overcoming technical obstacles, WFHB began broadcasting on Jan. 4, 1993. “At that time, it was really hard for local bands to get any kind of airplay,” said Emily Jackson, a member of the WFHB board of directors and a volunteer disk jockey at the station. “The music industry was a big monolith that was hard to get involved with. It was a good way to highlight local music and local musicians.” Board members at the station planned monthly

events this year to celebrate its 20th anniversary, including the “Women Rule: Finding a Voice at WFHB” concert in March and the sixth annual Acoustic Roots Festival in May. In June, WFHB collaborated with the City of Bloomington Entertainment and Arts District to create an atrium exhibit about the station’s history at City Hall. The display features photographs, artifacts and documents that chronicle the history of WFHB as well as Bloomington music. “The local music scene of

the mid-’70s was a huge reason why the original group of people wanted to get the station on the air,” Manion said. “There was an amazing music scene back then as well.” In 2002, Chad Carrothers, then a WFHB volunteer, worked with former station manager Ryan Bruce to launch the station’s News and Public Affairs Initiative. They created the Daily Local News, Bloomington’s first and only daily 30-minute radio news broadcast.

“The death of radio has been predicted for 15 to 20 years now because of all these other things, and it hasn’t gone away. It’s not going away.” Jim Manion, WFHB Music Director

Taste of Bloomington turns downtown into culinary melting pot BY AMANDA JACOBSON AND SAMANTHA FELIX aj56@indiana.edu, sadfelix@indiana.edu

As sunshine turned into a rainy downpour the afternoon of June 22, many Taste of Bloomington festival goers ran to tents and booths, huddling to stay dry.

At 3:30 p.m., Taste of Bloomington gate workers said live music had been postponed until 4 p.m., but the rain steadily continued and the musical acts did not start until about 5 p.m. on the main stage at Eighth and Morton streets. At about 5:30 p.m., small batches of visitors to the 31st annual Taste of Bloomington

began to filter into the Showers Commons at City Hall to sample the flavors of local vendors and restaurants. The IDS sent two reporters into the Taste of Bloomington to talk with food vendors, getting their takes on this year’s rain-soaked festival atmosphere. GYPSY MOON NOSH WAGON

A newcomer to town and the Taste of Bloomington, Gypsy Moon Nosh Wagon was located at the Showers North Lot during the festival. Gypsy Moon owner Jackie White said the festival was a lot more work than she is normally used to doing out of her food truck. “I cook in small batches,”

she said. “I like doing small orders. And I like to be creative and do funky stuff.” Her food truck is named Gypsy Moon because of its wandering, creative nature. “I’ve been painting that moon for years and years,” she said. “And I’ve always thought of myself as a gypsy. And now, the truck moves around like a

» WHFB CONTINUED FROM PAGE D2 The Society of Professional Journalists has given the program numerous awards as part of its Best of Indiana contest. With the addition of the news department, Manion said WFHB “became a fullservice radio station rather than just a place for cool music.” Now the general manager of WFHB, Carrothers attributes the station’s continued community involvement to partnerships with Bloomingfoods, Rhino’s Youth Center and Lotus World Music and Arts Festival. “WFHB has evolved from a radio station into an arts organization,” Carrothers said. “The key to that, really, has been the institutional partnerships we’ve been able to develop over time.” In addition to 91.3 FM — the original WFHB frequency broadcast to Bloomington, Bedford, Ind. and Martinsville, Ind., — the station now

broadcasts at 106.3 FM in Ellettsville, Ind., and Spencer, Ind., as well as 100.7 FM in Nashville, Ind. “The death of radio has been predicted for 15 to 20 years now because of all these other things, and it hasn’t gone away,” Manion said. “It’s not going away. Terrestrial broadcasting from your antennae to your audience who’s listening in real time is a valuable service and a very healthy experience for the listener.” Manion estimated nearly 300 volunteers are involved with the station from board members to journalists to volunteer DJs. As programming has expanded and some broadcasting methods have changed, Manion said WFHB’s mission to celebrate local culture and create an open forum to discuss issues remains the same. “The vision for what we wanted to create has definitely been successful to the 10th power,” he said.

IU Fine Arts sixth in number of degrees BY ASHLEY JENKINS ashmjenk@indiana.edu

Eighteen was IU’s lucky number in July. It’s the number of fine arts degrees offered on campus, and it’s what earned IU the No. 6 spot on the list of “50 U.S. Colleges Where Art Programs Abound,” a ranking by the College Database. “The ranking offers further evidence that IU is a place where the arts continue to thrive and grow,” said Ryan Piurek, director of news and media communications at IU. He said the University’s strong arts involvement not only benefits students, but helps the community flourish. “Studies have shown that a strong arts community such as ours plays an essential role in a state’s economic and cultural well-being,” Piurek said. What makes an arts community a good one? “Strong degree programs, esteemed faculty, talented students, and a wealth of cultural

resources to support our faculty and students,” Piurek said. Although IU offers a lengthy list of arts-related degrees from different schools, such as Arts Management from SPEA, they’re not the only ones available. Students can construct their own arts degrees, and they’ve created several through the Individualized Major Program offered at IU. Stage Management, Music Business, Animation and Medical Illustration are just a few of the many arts-related degrees students have crafted for themselves. Thirty of the 79 students participating in IMP have artistic majors, according to Kristen Murphy, student services assistant at IU’s IMP office. Through the IMP, students can pursue degrees not offered by the college. Erin Ritchie, an IU senior majoring in poster design, said the University could do a better job with curriculum

structure. She said for such an esteemed ranking, she wishes she felt she had received a better education. “The fundamental courses, like drawing, 3D and 2D, are useless,” she said. “You repeat all the lessons and material in first-level classes after you complete the fundamentals. I felt bored. I didn’t feel like I was able to stretch my creativity.” She said although parts of the fine arts degree pursuit are not as satisfying as they could be, she’s thankful for skills she didn’t expect to learn, like welding. “I learned a lot that I just didn’t expect to learn in a college classroom,” Ritchie said. “After finishing the first couple tedious years in the arts school, in the end I’m glad for the path I chose.” Piurek said the new arts degree ranking will be used in future marketing to attract prospective arts students.

IU Auditorium reveals eerie collaboration for fall BY JEFF LAFAVE jlafave@indiana.edu

When it comes to horror, Bloomington is King. “Ghost Brothers of Darkland County,” a southern gothic supernatural musical written by Stephen King, will take the IU Auditorium stage October 10, the IU Auditorium announced May 10. “Darkland County” also features music by Bloomington music legend John Mellencamp and touring icon TBone Burnett. The IU Auditorium will show the first runs of “Darkland County” before the production leaves for a 20-city nationwide tour. “It is an amazing opportunity to host the cast and creative staff of ‘Ghost Brothers’ as they rehearse and debut

this new musical,” IU Auditorium director Doug Booher said in a press release. “This is a rare chance for our audiences to witness a premiere of this scope, and it coming from such a locally (and globally) beloved artist like John Mellencamp makes the experience even more special for Bloomington and IU.” The musical combines eerie, suspenseful plot with blues and folk music styles, as the storyline centers around a dysfunctional family living in 1967 Mississippi, according to the press release. Where artists in their golden years often settle for contentment, Stephen King said this musical keeps him and Mellencamp working hard. “John can make rock ‘n’ roll records and I can write books

for the rest of our lives,” King said. “But that’s the safe way to do it, and that’s no way to live if you want to stay creative. We were willing to be educated, and at our age, that’s an accomplishment.” Director Susan Booth said in a press release the musical is “a kind of new age traveling medicine show.” “This is a gothic storydriven rock concert,” Booth said. “I want the emphasis to be on this fantastic score and our great singers and how the story advances us from song to song. In most musicals, the songs advance the narrative. With ‘Ghost Brothers,’ the story will advance the songs.” For more information, visit iuauditorium.com.

Film Archive, Bishop Bar spin vintage reels BY KATE THACKER kmthacke@indiana.edu

The menu featured coconut curry pork tacos — the day’s best seller — alongside red chili chicken tacos and baconbleu cheese guacamole. DATS ON GRANT Dats on Grant, a cajun creole café, joined the festivities with its “Real Cajun, Real Fast” attitude as it served up three tasty dishes: chili cheese étouffée with crawfish, caramelized corn with black beans — a vegetarian option — and bourbon chicken. Ryan Stackhouse, a food and wine lover attending the Taste, recommended the chili cheese étouffée with crawfish. “It’s spicy and delicious,” Stackhouse said. If customers don’t like the sound of the étouffée they can always visit Dats at 211 S. Grant St. to try its sandwiches, stew, Creole, chili and jambalaya. Its hours of operation include 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and

noon to 6 p.m. Sunday. THE BIG CHEEZE The Big Cheeze, a local food truck specializing in gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches, was also in attendance. The gourmet food truck served its best-selling homemade mac’n’cheese grilled cheese sandwich called the “Mac Daddy Grilled Cheese” and its popular “Momma Smacker” sandwich, as well as a newer sandwich called the “Fajita Grilled Cheese” served with a side of cilantro lime sour cream.

“Last year the Taste was good for us, I mean it’s raining so it obviously slows things down this year,” Joe Morton, Big Cheeze co-owner with Chad Sutor, said. “But we normally try to target students mostly, so this is a good way to get our name out there to the locals during the summer months.” To try some of the truck’s other signature grilled cheese sandwiches, follow The Big Cheeze’s Twitter account @ BigCheezeIN to find its latenight locations on Kirkwood Avenue or call (812) 322-5234.

A library and a bar never seemed to have much in common, until now. IU Libraries Film Archive and The Bishop Bar collaborated to create an educational film series titled “Social Guidance Sundays,” presented for free at 8 p.m. April 28 at The Bishop. Graduate student Jay McClurg worked with IU film archivist Rachael Stoeltje to select educational films from the 1950s to screen to the public. Stoeltje said McClurg approached her with the idea to increase awareness of the collection. “He’s been thinking about outreach ideas and more exposure in different venues than just traditional cinema settings,” Stoeltje said. “He proposed it.” The short films were chosen from the 48,000 educational films stored in the IU Libraries Film Archive, according to its website. Stoeltje said she suggested

12 titles from which McClurg could choose to screen at The Bishop. McClurg worked with fellow students Josephine McRobbie and Asia Harman to choose the films. Titles of the films include self-help topics such as “How To Be Well Groomed,” “Gossip” and “Are You Popular?” To complement the screening, the students created an interactive bingo game for viewers to fill out while watching the films. “This is one of those times it’s good to turn over to some fun, enthusiastic, creative people who are excited about it,” Stoeltje said. Out of the titles to be shown, Stoeltje said “Are You Popular?” is one of her favorites. “It’s in a high school setting, and it’s explaining why some girls are popular and other girls are not,” she said. “It’s sort of modeling how you, too, can be popular. It’s a real treat.” Stoeltje said students have enjoyed past screenings of the films. “I think they think it’s sort

of quaint and funny to think about instructing people on social behavior,” she said. “It’s really foreign. Things like ‘What To Do On A Date’ seem completely outdated, but sort of sweet in their own right.” McClurg initially proposed the idea as a monthly event, Stoeltje said. She said this Sunday’s screening is a way to measure interest for a possible monthly series. “If people come and enjoy it, we have a huge number of films like this,” Stoeltje said. “I’m open to that if the audience likes it.”

Lil Bub, a Bloomington cat of internet fame, is the subject of a feature film about the rise of online celebrity among animals that debuted April 28 at the Buskirk-Chumley Theatre. “Lil Bub & Friendz,” which debuted at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival, was screened April 28 at the theater. The film addresses the virality of cat videos on YouTube, as well as other animal memes like Keyboard Cat, Nyan Cat and Grumpy Cat. The movie claims to be the

“perma-kitten” condition, which means Bub will stay tiny and kitten-like. Bub has short legs attached to a long body. The cat is toothless, has a short lower jaw, extra toes, as well as opposable thumbs in front. Bub’s distinct appearance, 22 claws and all, has drawn a following of over 120,000 Facebook fans and an appearance on NBC Today. The movie is directed and produced by Andy Capper and Juliette Eisner.

A man photographs “Together; Animator, Animated” by Robin Carlson during the 2013 Kinsey Institute Juried Art Show at the Grunwald Gallery inside of the School of Fine Arts. Carlson’s piece won “Best in Show” at the opening.

Kinsey art show displays sex-inspired pieces to community BY HANNAH CRANE hmcrane@indiana.edu

Strangers exchanged “vcards” while couples stared at the fixtures on the walls and tried to identify which crevice of the body had been photographed and enlarged beyond recognition. Anne Kinsey Call, Alfred Kinsey’s 89-year-old daughter, sat in the middle of the gallery, talking with the artists.

“Sex was always complicated by principles and morals, but for most it is an individual relationship,” Kinsey Call said. “Sex is a lot healthier today, and you can see it in the art.” Alfred Kinsey’s research about sex and gender at IU pushed the envelope more than 60 years ago, and his reputation for exposing the taboo lives on today through forums such as the Kinsey Juried Art Show. Large crowds visited the

Grunwald Gallery of Art to view more than 90 artwork pieces that aim to expose issues with gender, identity, sexuality and reproduction at the opening reception of the eighth annual Kinsey Institute Juried Art Show May 17. Three jurors had selected 94 pieces to be displayed in the Kinsey art show out of 924 submissions by artSEE KINSEY, PAGE D9

» KINSEY CONTINUED FROM PAGE D8 ists from six countries. “The quality of the work has gone up every year,” Grunwald Gallery director Jeremy Sweets said. “More and more entries are coming internationally, which shows that the art show is getting recognition and is becoming more prestigious.” The Kinsey art show attracted a diverse audience of IU students, graduates, professors, Bloomington locals and people who had traveled specifically for the event, as well as at least 20 of the featured artists in the show, said Catherine Johnson-Roehr, Curator of Art, Artifacts and Photographs at The Kinsey Institute. “It’s crowded, it’s great,” Sweets said. “People are engaged and networking. There are a lot of people here from the community and outside the area because the show has that kind of a pull. This show is very unique.” The Kinsey Art Show helps artists display artwork that may not always be welcomed in galleries because of sexual content. The curators added a movable wall at the front of the gallery space to create a “peep show effect,” Sweets said. The exhibit included photography, video,

paintings, sculptures, interactive gadgets and computer programs, drawings, fiber art and jewelry. As viewers took in the various artworks, their facial expressions showed reactions of confusion, entertainment, curiosity and disgust. “It’s definitely something to look at for a while,” Sue Riegsecker, a first-time Kinsey art show visitor, said. “But something I really like about the show is that there are so many different experiences coming together in this one place.” Call believed the juried art show represented Kinsey well. “The show is infinitely superior to last year,” she said. “The quality gets better every year.” The recognized artworks were “Together: Animator, Animated” by Robin Carlson of Evanston, Ill., a stopaction video installation that received the Best in Show award. “The Position,” a photograph by Erin Randle of Chicago received the Gallery Visitors’ Choice award. The sculpture “Labor Intensive,” created by Michael Brohman of Denver won the Curators’ Choice Award. No two pieces were alike. Carlson’s stop-action animation video dealt with the

relationship between real and artificial bodies, while Brohman’s cast bronze sculpture illustrated surrogate pregnancy. “I thought the sculpture was the most provoking and shocking piece of all,” attendee Afua Kwaaning, said. “How the baby’s face was wrapped up within the two outstretched arms, maybe reaching for help, was really outside of the box.” Artists identified by nametags mingled with the visitors in the gallery for a personal and unique art-viewing experience. Returning Kinsey art show artists and new artists alike were given the chance to display and engage in dialogue about their work. Therese Shechter of Brooklyn, N.Y., passed out “v-cards” to visitors when discussing her digital interactive web project and documentary “The V-Card Diaries.” Her interactive project of different peoples’ stories and ideas about sex delves into “the myth and meaning of virginity in America,” Shechter said. “There isn’t this big before and after moment of losing virginity that society sells to us in teen movies and pornography and so on,” Shechter said. “It is a long process of self-discovery.”
