State approves construction money

Statesman Awarded Statesman Staff Report

Indiana Statesman staff members have been honored with five awards for their work during the past year.

College Media Association, the national organization that represents advisers of the nation’s collegiate media newspapers, yearbooks, magazines and electronic media, recognized the Statesman with a second place award in the Best of Collegiate Design Contest for the Spring 2011 Housing Guide cover. The cover was designed

by Shannon Call who graduated in May 2011.

College Newspaper Business and Advertising Managers, founded in 1972 as the national organization representing students and advisers involved in the business and advertising operations of student newspapers, recognized the Statesman with a second place award for best house ad. Ad designer Heidi Staggs a senior communication major, designed the advertisement.

ISU officials expect to open bids soon for a project contractor, said Diann McKee, vice president of business affairs and finance.

Erickson was dedicated as a residence hall on Nov. 4, 1962, according to the ISU Archives. It currently houses various university offices and Department of Communication classes.

The Indiana Statesman was founded May 16, 1929, the same year that Indiana State Normal School became Indiana State Teachers College.

The newspaper began in December 1879 as the State Normal News. In November 1895, the paper was first issued as the Normal Advance.

Members of the ISU community are welcome to take a single copy of each issue of this newspaper. The unauthorized taking of multiple copies, however, may constitute theft, which is a crime, even with free publications.

Thefts will be reported to campus police for possible prosecution and/or for other disciplinary actions.

The Indiana Statesman exists for four main reasons: to provide the ISU community with news and information, to serve the campus as a public forum for student and reader comments, to offer student staff members chances to apply their skills in different aspects of a news publication, and to give students leadership opportunities.

Hulman Center roof Cost: $1.3 million Tentative completion date: fall 2012 The house that Larry Bird built is showing its age, McKee said.

Hulman Center first opened to the public in 1973 as Hulman CivicUniversity Center. The roof was last replaced in 1990, McKee said.

Officials have since used patching and similar methods to repair leaks and other wear and tear.

“It is to the point where we can no longer do that,” McKee said.

McKee said work will be scheduled so as not to interfere with the 2012-2013 basketball season and alternative plans are being made for other events scheduled in the facility.

Briefs

Five new printers available across campus This week, five new printing stations will be made available across campus.

These printers are located in the Hulman Memorial Student Union, Student Computing Center, Root Hall, the Arena and Holmstedt Hall. To use these printers, follow the instructions at downloads.indstate.edu to install the necessary driver to send documents to print. With the new system, from a laptop anywhere on campus, people may submit a document to be printed.

To print the document, simply go to one of the five locations listed above, log in to the release station, and select which documents that need to be printed.

Also, the Office of Information Technology has requested that students take a few minutes to take a survey regarding technology on campus. The survey can be found here: https://indstate.qualtrics.com/ SE/?SID=SV_26alpwFGorUHdgo, and should take no more than 5-10 minutes to complete. Feedback will help OIT develop its future plans to cater to the needs of students, and participation is very much appreciated. OIT will post results from the survey, so they are requesting that students respond by April 27.

Indiana State University police officers arrested a woman on Thursday for trespassing, marking the individual’s second run-in with university law enforcement.

Leigha N. Horvath, 20, of 279 Victory Hill, was arrested after officers observed Horvath’s 2002 Gold Toyota Avalon pulling out of ISU’s parking Lot 9, heading south on fourth street with a taillight out.

According to an Indiana State University police report, officers stopped the vehicle east of the intersection of Third Street and Cherry Street, where Horvath could not provide her license.

After Horvath properly identified herself, dispatch informed officers that she had previously been trespassed from campus last year.

Joe Newport, the assistant police chief of Public Safety, said the original trespass warning was established after Horvath attempted to grab evidence that an officer confiscated during a drug investigation.

Horvath’s vehicle was towed Durrs Towing and she was transported to the Vigo County where she was booked for trespassing. Horvath appeared in court Thursday morning.

For most students, college wouldn’t be possible without financial aid.

Those who don’t receive much in scholarships or parental funding, have little choice but to fall back on Stafford loans, Pell grants or other state academic awards.

And the aid doesn’t merely cover steep tuition/room and board; it pays for books, groceries, school supplies, gas (for commuter students), housing off of campus or even medical emergencies. During a student’s tenure in college, “aid” becomes a modest word to describe its importance—it’s really financial “livelihood.”

But change is quickly coming to both the Stafford loan and Pell Grant, meaning higher debt for the lucky students, and a delayed education for the unfortunate.

An article on TIME magazine’s website states that subsidized student loan rates will double by July 1, jumping from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent.

The article cites the U.S. Public Interest Research Group, adding that the average Stafford loan borrower will pay $2,800 more over a 10-year repayment term after June 30. Students who take out more money and receive the maximum $23,000 will pay $5,000 more.

To make matters worse, legislation may be in the works to decrease Pell Grant funding. Cuts in Pell Grants have already been made due, in part, to the Continuing Resolution (H.R. 1), which sliced $60 billion from the federal budget in February.

Together, these changes will affect nearly 17 million students across the country.

Although, Congress has a lot on their plate, those representatives already have their college degrees and live comfortably. Politicians can’t treat student loan rates like gas prices. They can’t keep lowering the amount of aid and expect citizens to just complain and cope with it.

Nowadays, a high school diploma won’t get you anywhere in the real world. And in some places, an undergraduate degree won’t help much either. If our country has made a college education the standard, legislators’ priorities should match that.

With July only a few months away, students have already sent 130,000 letters to Congress. We urge members the ISU population to cram those mailboxes, as well, and speak up for their educational rights.

Protesters wear out abortion

“But in Monongalia County now, I have to put a huge sticker on my buildings to say this is a smoke-free environment. This is brought to you by the government of Monongalia County. Okay?

Remember Hitler used to put Star of David on everybody’s lapel, remember that? Same thing.”

-John Raese, candidate for U.S. senator in West Virginia, in reference to the county’s smoking ban

“Is it right for us to digitally marionette musicians around a stage for our own enjoyment, even though they obviously never agreed to such appearances?

And, if we’re really trying to honor them, wouldn’t it be better to let the music they created while alive stand on its own?”

-”Monkey See” on National Public Radio in reference to the Tupac hologram at Coachella earlier this week

“I was convinced that this was the wake-up call to our fellow citizens that maybe there were some guns in America that were in the hands of the wrong people. But, unfortunately we hit the snooze button on our alarm and went back to sleep.”

(Illustration by Jamie Nichols).

Abortion will always be a widely controversial and debated topic, yes. But I’m sick of reading about both sides and their obnoxious means of spreading their beliefs. The University of North Carolina is the latest hot spot for the tired banter.

During a book signing and lead by Brianne abortiondiscussion rights advocate Baumgardner Hofmann Jennifer Monday, T-shirts reading, Write and “I had an abortion” were sold. Naturally, there was a Wrong backlash, with a few students wearing shirts that retorted, “I haven’t killed a baby.”

And here we are, talking more about the protesters than the topic itself.

Pro-lifers are upset about the “I had an abortion” shirts because wearers appear to be boasting about their terminated pregnancies. Pro-choicers are fussing because the opposing side seems accusatory and arrogant.

But who wins? This shouldn’t even be a competition about who’s better or more righteous.

This isn’t a “Who wore it best?” contest. It’s a serious matter that needs to be handled as such.

There are other topics, such as smoking vs. non-smoking, where sensationalistic

advertising works. The Center for Disease Control recently released a graphic antismoking campaign chronicling the lives of cancer patients and voice box users. Since it began, more than 33,000 people have called 1-800-QUIT-NOW. While the images used in the ads were sobering or unnerving, they were honest. The CDC has at least strayed from pointing fingers at the tobacco companies and grown up.

Abortion can’t be approached in the same way. It works for smoking because it’s generally acknowledged now that it isn’t great for one’s health (hence the Surgeon General’s warning neatly printed on each pack). But with abortion, the question truly lies with when life starts—that answer hasn’t been scientifically set in stone yet.

If attention is what UNC’s students wanted, they certainly got it. I applaud everyone involved for moving beyond the ol’ sidewalk chalk messages method. However, their T-shirts aren’t that much of an improvement. They’re basically on the exact level of those quirky shirts with messages like “I see dumb people” or “I’m not antisocial, I’m just anti-stupid.”

If either side really wanted to fuel the debate, they could have resorted to walking up to one another, giving their views on the topic and listening to the opposing side.

I thought that’s how arguments were supposed to be.

“This shouldn’t be a competition about who’s better or more righteous. This isn’t a ‘Who Wore it Best’ contest.”

Sycamore Sessions hosts last event of school year Aaron Abel

Assistant features editor

Anyone was invited to come and socialize while listening to a variety of music genres performed by talented ISU students at the last Sycamore Session of the year last night at 7 p.m. in the Sycamore Lounge.

“The Sessions offer the audience a place to come, relax and listen to music without having to pay anything,” Sycamore Sessions co-president and junior electronics media major Cynthia Ban said.

The show included free food, a raffle, a comedy skit and a diverse array of music.

“Students play a variety of genres here,” said Glenn Skinner, committee member and student affairs and higher education graduate student. “Country, rap, soul, acapella… everything is played.”

Freshman music performance major Jeff Richardson performed an original acapella piece called “Vacation” during the show.

Richardson has performed two times before at the Sycamore Sessions, and uses the event to stay in practice, he said.

“It really is a lot of fun, I like the casual and welcoming atmosphere,” Richardson said.

“I fell like everyone has a good time, and the committee works real hard to keep the program going.”

Junior operations and supply chain management major Justin Gardner attended the event for his second time, this time performing an acoustic cover of “I’ll Be” by Edwin McCain.

“I have a lot of fun here,” Gardner said. “I just wish there were more performers.”

The sessions took place four times this Students took the stage in Sycamore Lounge Thursday night for the last Sycamore Sessions event semester but the committee hopes to hold of the year.

Co-president and junior communication major Tia Timberlake has been a part of the organization since its start last spring and hopes to get more members on board for next year.

“We’re looking for more committee members for next year,” Timberlake said, “especially freshman and sophomores so the event continues to grow.”

Timberlake hopes they’ll be able to hold at least one big event next semester in one of the Dedes.

“Hopefully we can get more performers on a bigger stage with a bigger audience next year,” Timberlake said.

While the committee looks to expanding in the future, Timberlake said she is happy with how the Sessions have gone this year.

“It’s gone smoothly, and it’s been a lot of fun for everyone involved,” Timberlake said, “and everybody loves free food, right?”

Donaghy Day continues traditions at ISU Jessica Neff Reporter

Students, faculty, staff, alumni and all other members of the Indiana State University community have and will come together to give back to the community of Terre Haute and the Wabash Valley for Donaghy Day. Donaghy Day has been a tradition that was started in 1976 under President Richard G. Landini. It was named after 1912 alumnus and professor of life sciences, Fred Donaghy.

The spring Donaghy Day will be taking place Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The kickoff event will be at 8:30 a.m. at Tirey Hall’s patio.

“We will be thanking the volunteers and announcing the Sycamore Service Challenge winners; we had a decent turnout of students involved in the challenge [600+],” said associate director for the Center for Community Engagement, Heather Miklozek. “There will also be over 500 potted pansies to be distributed in order to be planted or to be put inside in order to make [the surroundings] more beautiful.”

Miklozek has been contacting agencies over the past two to three months.

“The center contacts businesses and agencies that we have assisted before, or a part of Ryves Hall or AmeriCorps,” she said.

There are currently more than 400 people signed up to participate in Donaghy Day, Miklozek said.

Registration for the event was online through the Center for Community Engagement website.

After the kick-off event, participants will be designated to their respective service projects and places.

“Landscaping and painting will be two popular outdoor activities,” Miklozek said.

“Clearing files and boxing up stuff for the places that will be moving to new facilities will be happening inside the buildings.

Anything that people consider to be ‘spring cleaning’ will be the activities.”

At ISU, contributors will be naming the Performing Arts Building and planting a tree outside it, as well as planting trees and flowers around campus, Miklozek said.

“We have invited all faculty members to partake,” she said. “Some students choose to volunteer during their class time and others work around their schedules. We encourage faculty to use Donaghy Day as credit for class, and we have slips that prove that the student was participating in Donaghy Day which is why [he or she] was not in class.”

Sophomore textile, apparel and

“It was really neat because all the [residential assistants] in the dorms encouraged us to go as freshmen,” Lynch said. “We went to West Vigo and painted the gym. I met so many people; it was really fun, and it makes you feel good about yourself because it’s for a good cause.”

Lynch said she really wants to do it again and was unaware that it was happening tomorrow.

Now that she knows, Lynch said, “I’ll send out a mass text and some of my sisters and I will do it tomorrow.”

Senior communication major Joshua Trotter was also unaware of the event.

“I did it my freshman year, and we went to Ryves Hall as a floor program [in the

dorm],” Trotter said. “I didn’t want to go, but my roommate was going and most everyone on my floor was too. We had fun with the kids [at Ryves].”

Trotter lives off-campus and believes that a mass text message to the entire student body as well as teachers offering extra credit for participation in Donaghy Day would increase the interest and participation in the event.

“It would be a great incentive to do good for someone else, if I got something in return,” he said.

Miklozek believes that Donaghy Day is a great event and an opportunity for people who do not get involved with volunteering to do so. There are many first-time volunteers who come to the event and hopes that they continue with their service. “[Donaghy Day] is a way to show an example of how students can get involved

in their own community upon graduation,” she said. “It provides support and reaches out to the Terre Haute and Wabash Valley communities. I hope that 100 percent of our students contribute to service and volunteering before they graduate.”

“I met so many people; it was really fun, and it makes you feel good about yourself because it’s for a good cause.”

Finch, Powers, receive Dreiser Research and Creativity

Dave Taylor

ISU Communications and Marketing

Two Indiana State University faculty members have been honored with the 2012 Theodore Dreiser Distinguished Research and Creativity Award.

Alfred Finch, professor of biomechanics, and Joshua Powers, professor of educational leadership, received the award during the university’s Faculty Recognition Banquet Tuesday (April 17).

Named for the early 20th century author who grew up in Terre Haute, the Dreiser Award recognizes full-time ISU faculty members who have made outstanding contributions to their disciplines.

Finch served as a research biomechanist at the 1982 National Sports Festival for, the International Track and Field Coaches Association at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, for the USA Track and Field elite hurdler development Program and at the U.S. National Track and Field Championships since 1998. He worked 10 years as the research bio-mechanist for the USA Track & field Elite Hurdle Development program, and filmed the 2003 National Collegiate Athletic Association Cross

Country Championships.

Under Finch’s leadership, the ISU biomechanics laboratory was the first program in the country to utilize realtime streamed data in class instruction of neuromuscular concepts. Finch evaluated the effectiveness of a new golf putter design and an angled sprint starting block prototype on running kinematics.

He developed a wireless video streaming network capable of handling up to three video streams collected during a track competition Finch developed research lines in exercise physiology early in his career and later developed a diverse research focus on sport performance, ergonomics, rehabilitation, and equipment prototype evaluation. He has conducted a series of biomechanical research studies that examined the effectiveness of an active traction prototype which had received FDA approval for rehabilitative applications.

His efforts have produced 50 refereed research publications, 51 refereed research abstracts, 97 research presentations, two internationally-published software programs for body composition determinations and computerized

exercise prescription, a software program for biomechanical video analysis, and statistical post-hoc procedures, seven court litigation technical reports, 23 DVDs of elite sport technique analyses, a kinesiology laboratory workbook, and 43 grants representing an added value to the university’s biomechanics laboratory of approximately $750,000.

“I am extremely honored to receive this award because of all the scholarly/ creative accomplishments of the previous recipients,” Finch said. “I chose to work at ISU because I wanted to join an institution that truly valued and supported the scholar-researcher model. ISU has afforded me the opportunity to build world-class motion analysis laboratories in which I can examine almost every facet of human performance and has fostered great realworld interactive learning experiences for students in my classes in order to prepare them for successful professional careers.”

Finch holds a master’s degree in biomechanics and a Ph.D. in exercise science, both from the University of Maryland at College Park.

Powers teaches in the Bayh College of Education’s higher education doctoral program, where he specializes in higher

education finance and policy, the law of higher education, and university entrepreneurship. Chair of the department of educational leadership between 2005 and 2010, Powers currently serves as a faculty fellow in the Office of Academic Affairs as special assistant to the provost for academic initiatives since his return from a year-long American Council on Education fellowship in 2009-10.

Powers’ research on entrepreneurship in higher education and technology transfer have resulted in more than 60 peer reviewed articles, monographs, book chapters, and scholarly papers appearing in academic outlets such as the Journal of Higher Education, Research Policy, and the Journal of Business Venturing as well as publications such as the Chronicle of Higher Education, Inside Higher Ed, and Change Magazine.

“Being selected for the Theodore Dreiser Award is such an honor knowing that it comes from one’s peers,” Powers said. “As a scholar, it is humbling to be recognized for contribution to knowledge, a core part of what it means to be a faculty member.”

Powers holds doctoral degrees in higher education administration and business from Indiana University - Bloomington.

Ernest Rollins Sports editor

The 2012 State Farm Missouri Valley Conference Women’s Golf Championship will be held for the first time in Terre Haute this weekend.

For three days, 10 teams from across the MVC will be competing for the women’s golf conference title at the Country Club of Terre Haute for three rounds.

The MVC office, in a pre-championship poll, chose the Sycamores to finish in sixth position in the tournament. In a press release by ISU Athletics Media Relations ISU women’s golf head coach Greg Towne said the result of the tournament is unpredictable but playing at home is an advantage.

The lineup for the Sycamores include juniors Christina Beyerl, Emily Dixon and McCall Christopher and two of three freshmen, Amanda Smith, Gina Della Camera and Erinn Sutton. Juinor Reece Feducia will miss the tournament as well after sitting out the spring season to recover from an illness.

The Missouri State Bears are the favorites to take the 2012 Championship. The Bears secured 10 first place votes, a perfect score. The Shockers of Wichita State were selected to finish second with the Southern Illinois Salukis chosen for third

and the Illinois State Redbirds in fourth.

The Sycamores’ best finish in an MVC tournament was third place in 2010.

The highest an individual Sycamore ever finished in the tournament was in 2011

by Feducia. According to ISU Athletics Media Relations website Towne views the league to be more balanced than ever before and who comes out on top is wide open.

The championship is scheduled to tee-off at 8:30 a.m. on Sunday and over the next three days tee-off at the same time.

To reach the Terre Haute Country Club from ISU, drive south on 3rd st/US 41 South for approx. five miles and turn left on Allendale Rd.

ISU softball spilts doubleheader with Illinois State

TERRE HAUTE, Ind.—The offense of the Indiana State softball team (16-25, 3-13 MVC) roared to life in the bottom of the fifth inning, scoring five runs, to give the Sycamores a doubleheader split over the Redbirds of Illinois State (25-20, 10-7 MVC) Wednesday at Price Field.

“This group of girls has worked extremely hard this year and today we beat a great team,” head coach Shane Bouman said. “We are excited for this weekend.”

Game One: The Sycamore offense struggled to get going in game one of the doubleheader against Illinois State as the Sycamores got their first base runner in the bottom of the second inning on a walk by senior Olivia Andres.

Freshman Megan Bunting entered the game to pinch run for Andres and advanced to second on a sacrafice bunt by junior Alex Lucas but she could get no further as a foul out and groundout ended the inning.

The Redbirds put up two runs, only one earned, in the top of the fourth inning to take a 2-0 lead over the Sycamores. The Redbirds then extended their lead in the top of the seventh inning off an unearned run to take a 3-0 lead.

Freshman Megan Stone led off the bottom of the seventh with a single but the Sycamores could not claw their way back into the game as they fell by a final score of 3-0 in game one.

Despite getting the loss, senior Lindsey Beisser pitched the complete game, giving up just one earned run and striking out three.

Game Two: The Sycamore offense struck early in game two as Andres crushed her third home run of the season over the left center field fence to give the Sycamores a 1-0 advantage in the bottom of the second inning.

Neither team was able to do much on the offensive end until the Redbirds came back to tie the game in the top half of the fourth inning to make it 1-1.

The Sycamore offense made a statement in the bottom of the fifth inning, however, as they score five runs in the frame to take a commanding 6-1 lead.

With one out, freshman Ashley Dickerson fueled the Sycamore run with a double followed by back-to-back singles by Bunting and sophomore Alex Baumgart. After a groundout, senior Hailey Tinsman and sophomore Shelby Wilson hit back-to-back singles followed by an error on the Redbirds, allowed the Sycamores to jump out to their largest lead of the game at 6-1, one they would not give up.

Beisser, who pitched both games of the doubleheader, allowed no hits and just two base runners over the last two innings to secure the Sycamore win.

Andres finished game two going 2-3 at the plate with an RBI and run scored. Tinsman, Wilson, and Baumgart also each added RBI’s for the Sycamores.

Beisser finished the day with a 1.00 ERA over 14 innings of work, allowing just two earned runs.

The Sycamores will return to action on Saturday when they wrap up their home portion of their 2012 schedule against the Shockers of Whichita State.

“This group of girls has worked extremely hard this year and today we beat a great team.”
