Women dress for success

IN

SAMUAL CLARK Editor-in-Chief s t a t e s man The first-ever “Dress for Success” series will to hold its final event of the year Friday. Several campus groups, including the Cultural Learning Center, The Career Center, Greek Life, Student Conduct and Health and Wellness, have come together to organize this event. “What we want students to take away is how to carry yourself, how to dress in a professional manner,” said Stephanie Jefferson, the director for the African American cultural center. “You see a lot of girls dressing like the models in the magazines, and this may not be the best thing for a professional interview.” The entire event series is focused on teaching young women appropriate means to dress in a professional setting; be it an interview, a career or a workshop. The first event included professional celebrity stylist and Founder/CEO of LookStyle.com, Kellie Trumper. Graduating seniors were given a one-on-one session with Trumper for a free styling. The second event, scheduled for March 28, was CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

ALLEN ZIELINSKI Reporter No one ever said being a murderer was easy. In fact, there are about 200 or 300 different ways to get rid of the lead character in “The Mystery of Edwin Drood.” Fortunately, the audience is calling the shots at this show. In the ISU production that opens in Dreiser Theater tonight, it’s hard to ignore the friendly nature of the actors.

After all, they are trying to win votes from the audience for when it comes time to take a leading role in the musical’s ending. Actors meander through the audience, mingling with patrons as they explain the background of the show in various British accents. Business administration major, Tanner Thurman, has enjoyed the musical’s unique structure.

“The first step was portraying the actor,” Thurman said in regard to everyone’s double rolls. “The Mystery of Edwin Drood” is technically a play within a play. Student actors portray brash and tonguein-cheek-humored British actors performing at the Musical Hall Royale during the 19th century. It is this bunch of actors that performs “The Mystery

Professors continue the search for rare prime numbers Departments and people who have assisted in research: • • • • • • •

ISU Communications and Marketing Most of us learned what a prime number is in our early days of math class: an integer divisible only by itself and by one. But what you may not have realized is the search for the rarest of them is an international one, with a local effort led in an unconventional way by two Indiana State University professors. Research by Geoff Exoo, professor of mathematics and computer science and Jeff Kinne, assistant professor of computer science, focuses on finding the largest prime numbers, the largest twin primes — p and p + 2 are both prime, such as five and seven — and the largest Sophie Germain primes — p and 2p + 1 are both prime, such as five and 11. The project started last summer with the assistance of six students and is funded by the Indiana Academy of Sciences and the Indiana State University Office of the President. Their method puts a new spin on a

project George Woltman started in 1996, the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search, which provides volunteers with software to run on their computers and search for Mersenne prime numbers. Today, the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search makes use of more than 900,000 computers worldwide, according to its website. “We wanted to see if we don’t do it that way, what would we find,” Exoo said. “We wanted to be different.” “We have a similar setup of using many PCs in the search, but we wanted to look at different ways to generate the prime numbers,” Kinne said. Running their own software, the Indiana State-developed project uses 75 computers full-time and, through the generosity of other departments, about another 75 machines, part-time on weekends and holidays. This past winter break was especially fruitful, as they found the 14 largest known twin prime on Dec. 18. Each Friday evening, a student working with the Indiana State University Office

Electronics and Computer Engineering Technology, chaired by Joe Ashby Chemistry and Physics, chaired by Eric Glendening Languages, Literatures and Linguistics, chaired by Leslie Barratt Mathematics and Computer Science, chaired by Ralph Oberste-Vorth Department of the Built Environment, chaired by Andrew Payne Office of Information Technology, Wayne Hollowell and Steve Baker Computer science students Po-Ching Liu (now graduated),Troy Schotter, Ali Salman, Soutcho Toure and Karthik Tottempudi

of Information Technology goes around to a few campus computer labs, and with a USB key reboots the machines into a Linux operating system and starts the program. “Then, on Monday morning, the computer automatically reboots itself back to Windows, and the lab users never even know the computers were searching for prime numbers over the weekend,” Kinne said. When the team is alerted to a possible prime number discovery, the data is verified and then sent to a website tracking prime numbers, which verifies the information again. Theoretically, Exoo’s and Kinne’s program could be set up to run in the background of any machine, and the user would never be inconvenienced by it, the professors said. Exoo mused it could also be set up as a screensaver. “People have these powerful computers that they’re using about 1 percent of,” said Exoo. Making use of much more of the computers’ capability, Exoo and Kinne have found the 12th, 13th and 18th largest known Sophie Germain prime numbers and the 14th largest known twin prime. It’s been known since ancient times that there is no largest prime number — they just occur more rarely. “With primes, there’s no end,” Kinne said. While many academic disciplines have big riddles with multiple answers that require vast resources to compute — for

instance, “protein folding” in biology — some mathematicians, going back to ancient times, often relish the challenge for the chase, not for its practical applications. It’s math for math’s sake, if you will. “In math, we often look at a problem because the question is interesting or fascinating, even if the solution of the problem does not have an immediate application,” said Exoo. Enter cryptography: the very practical application of prime numbers research. It’s how we’re able to make secure purchases online, and presently, prime numbers a few-hundred digits long are required for the encryption process. “In another 20 years, computers will be faster, and you’ll need larger numbers,” Kinne said. Computers themselves have revolutionized the discovery of prime numbers. In 1588, the largest known prime was six digits in size. In 1951, a mechanical calculator helped find a prime 44 digits long. Two years later, a Standards Western Automatic Computer found a 687-digit prime number. By 1983, the largest known prime was 39,751 digits long; in 1993, 227,832 digits. And just last year, we’re up to a prime number that consists of more than 17 million digits. While Exoo’s and Kinne’s numbers aren’t quite that large yet — their discovery of the 208th largest overall prime is 712,748 digits — they would be about a mile long, if printed. But “we have not actually printed it out,” Kinne said.

The third event is scheduled for April 4, and will feature a panel of professional women from all ages and cultures to hold a discussion on their experiences and what they find to be “appropriate.” Panelists will include Dr. Carmen Tillery, the vicepresident of student affairs, Rassan Parks, Miss Black and Yellow 2014, and Monique Parks. “When I was an undergrad, these same magazines would show young ladies guidelines on how to dress. We want to provide a counter point, a place for women to find guidelines that they can follow,” said Jefferson. Jefferson went on to talk about how the groups legitimately wish to continue the event into an actual, annual event. “[Our] numbers were small, so far, which is a shame. Students are missing out on a great opportunity.” Jefferson said. Jefferson hopes that students will make a larger attempt to come out on Friday for the final event. The panel will take place in room 321 of the Hulman Memorial Student Union at 6 p.m. Students will be expected to wear business casual. The event is free and open to all female students.

Nursing alumna discusses her career of compassion Emily Sturgess

ISU Communications and Marketing Sara Wheeler’s nursing career began in the fifth grade when she cared for a cat that lived in her family’s garage in Peoria, Ill. “The cat was so sick that I had to go out every morning and every evening, and I would basically hand-feed the cat. I’d dip my fingers in milk and he would lick it off my fingers and then I’d break up little kibble or chicken and hand-feed him,” she said. “I’ll never forget the day he walked out of the garage. I felt like I made a difference, and I liked that feeling. It was then I knew I wanted to be a nurse.” Wheeler’s dad discovered Indiana State University had started a nursing program. He insisted she receive a college education in nursing, key to her development professionally as well as personally. “I think that going to college is such a great time in your life,” she said. “You’re away from your parents but still in a protected environment. Even if you have figured out who you are and what you want to do, college offers you experiences to refine who you are, who you want to be and how you want to do it. College not only helps you achieve your goals, it sets you on the path to your future. Once you graduate, you have the opportunity to shape your future, based on what you learned, what you experienced, and who you met. And, a BS degree in nursing is a springboard for graduate nursing education. The nursing world opens up to you in a wide variety of directions.” The nursing program at Indiana State was only three years old when Wheeler came to Terre Haute in 1966. Wheeler said in her junior year the nursing dean, Dorothy McMullen, called her into her office and told her she should stop “skating by on C’s” or rethink her desire to become a nurse. “She ran a really tight ship and wanted the graduates from her program to be top-notch,” Wheeler said. “The very first day of orientation, there were probably

She co-founded “Resolve through time on writing a chapter on Adolescent

Pregnancy Loss and a second edition of “When a Baby Dies: A Handbook for Healing and Helping,” a book she authored with Resolve Through Sharing co-founder Rana Limbo. Through her research on miscarriage and adolescent pregnancy loss, Wheeler said she learned more about how women of all ages cope with an early pregnancy loss, what their needs might be and how health care providers can better help them. While some women grieve the loss of a child through miscarriage or the termination of a pregnancy just as they would a loss via stillbirth or infant death, “different women feel differently,” she said. “We need to become better listeners as health care professionals,” she said. “And one of the hard things now with all of this technology is that people have their heads down and they may or may not be listening.” Through all of her different endeavors in the nursing field, Wheeler credits Indiana State for giving her a firm foundation to build her career upon. “ISU is creating futures for its students,” she said. “It’s doing that now, but it also did that back in the ‘60s for those of us in the nursing program.” Her husband, Gary Lee Wheeler, is an Indiana State graduate, and they have many friendships that started when they were in college and have been sustained for almost 50 years. Her daughter, Lori Rich Kiefer, M.D., is also an Indiana State alumna. “Now if our son gets accepted into the College of Nursing’s graduate program, we will be an ISU family!” she said. Wheeler was a 2013 recipient of the Indiana State University Distinguished Alumni Award and plans to join other alumni in helping the university mark the 50th anniversary of the nursing a program during a day long series of programs on April 11. “ISU helps you create your future,” Wheeler said. “And then you have to grab hold and make it happen.”

Statesman editorial

School dress codes are useful, but strip students of identity School uniforms and dress codes have always been around. For a while they seemed to calm down, but in recent years, many schools have gone back to adopting either full uniforms or stricter dress codes than they had previously. The idea of uniforms isn’t completely offensive, but there are some things that a school dress code simply shouldn’t be allowed to control. Dress codes seem fairly harsh for elementary school children, for one. Grayson Bruce, a nine-year-old boy, was told he couldn’t bring his “My Little Pony” backpack to school because he was “asking for trouble,” as one teacher put it. If the child is willing to withstand the bullying for this backpack, shouldn’t he be allowed to carry it? But rather than punish this boy for his backpack, the school should have been punishing the kids who bullied Bruce. Kamryn Renfro, a nine-year-old girl from Colorado, shaved her head for her best friend who is going through chemotherapy. Renfro was suspended from school until her hair grew back, because shaved heads are against the school dress code. This girl was shamed for a brave act of compassion. These are characteristics we typically want our children to develop, but they won’t develop if we punish other students who demonstrate these attributes. In the school’s defense, if it was in the written code, then they have the right to punish her. Some may argue that things like hair color, hairstyle, tattoos and piercings are a part of your dress, but at the same time, some people feel that a school should not be able to tell students what they can or cannot do with their own skin or body. In 2010, a girl in Fort Myers, Fla. was suspended from her high school because her tattoo violated their dress code.

Recently, middle school girls in Illinois protested their school’s dress code because the school banned leggings. The school’s reasoning was that it was too distracting to male students. The fact that it is distracting to specifically males is where the problem lies. This implies that males simply cannot control their urges, and that just isn’t fair to men on the whole. The other problem with this rule was that it allowed for discrimination based on body type. There was an instance at this same Illinois middle school where there were two girls wearing the same athletic shorts, and one got in trouble while the other didn’t because of a difference in body type. Many of these dress code policies are vague or they are left up to staff and administrator discretion. With vague policies, the student or a parent may interpret the code differently than a staff member. These dress codes are often riddled with double standards. Dress codes for girls tend to be much more restricting than for boys. For girls, there will be shorts, skirts, dresses and pant regulations, as well as regulations for midriff and cleavage. But for guys, the regulations are far fewer. School uniforms can cut down distractions and promote community, but at the cost of a student’s individuality. This seems contradictory in a country where we value individualism so much. In schools where you have the exact same outfit for students, uniforms actually work and do their jobs. Static uniforms help remove socioeconomic pressures and help prevent bullying. In some cases, though, this can be disregarded. When less-strict dress codes cover many things, but not all, students will find a reason to bully each other. Invariable uniforms also can allow for

greater individual expression depending on how strict the dress code is. If the dress code doesn’t cover things like accessories or backpacks, the student’s individuality stands out that much more. Uniforms are also helpful for organizations and companies that want to make themselves distinct from others but don’t want a distinction within the group. In cases like marching bands, they wear the uniforms to identify themselves as the marching band, but they only want to put on one face. Businesses like fast food restaurants use uniforms to distinguish and identify their employees. It creates community and a sense of wholeness for the employees. Many would argue that you are in

school to learn, you can have fun playing dress-up in your free time, but for some people, clothing is their main medium of expression. High school is all about being able to learn who you are as an individual and a group member. Many people find their niche in high school, and clothing can have a large part in that. In the end, whether or not uniforms are good or bad is determined by the type of person you are and how strict the dress code. Some dress codes still allow for expression. Certain students gain more from having set uniforms since it removes many opportunities to be bullied, but other students would rather be bullied if they can still express themselves.

Professor and Pulitzer finalist to speak to students Cassandra Hauser Features Editor Dr. Michael Shelden, Professor of English at Indiana State University, has been teaching since 1979 and got hired at Indiana State as a full-time professor in 1989, the same year in which his first book was published. Shortly after the publication of his first book, Shelden began writing his second book, “Orwell: The Authorized Biography.” Having written two books in a matter of two years, Shelden said it took enthusiasm and writing often during the time in which he was not teaching. When he began writing the Orwell biography, he set out to look where nobody else had looked before. Rather than going to the libraries most famous for Orwell research, he started to check into libraries which were not famous for having Orwell documents. “Wherever they tell you to look is the last place you look,” Shelden said, as a reflection upon his research about Orwell’s life. Often, for Shelden, this method includes taking a look at an age of the subject which does not get studied often.

Shelden noted that he enjoys researching “famous people at the age of his students.” Shelden’s Orwell biography has seen great success as a Pulitzer Prize finalist, a high honor in the world of writing. According to the Michael Shelden website, his book, “Mark Twain: Man in White,” also received honors on best book lists by publications such as Library Journal and Christian Science Monitor. Recently, though, Shelden’s books have gone out of the realm of just published success. With the newest craze of miniseries on television, Shelden has received a new opportunity with his book about Winston Churchill, “Young Titan.” Public Broadcasting Service, commonly known as PBS, plans to air his biography as a six-part miniseries, where British writer William Boyd and actor Daniel Day-Lewis will play important roles in the adopting of the book for television. Although he has tended toward literary figures — from Graham Greene to Mark Twain — when writing his biographies, Shelden plans to write his next book about a famous sea captain who lived

about two-hundred years ago. Shelden said that he became interested in this subject because sailors were supposedly some of the best storytellers, and Shelden himself enjoys telling stories. “If you tell stories, you can tell a truth better,” Shelden said. This philosophy is one that he tries to carry out in his classroom. According to the Indiana State website, Shelden teaches both foundational studies and major courses. In those classes, rather than giving students straight information, he tries to relay it to them through stories to help them remember better and make the information more interesting to them. Not only has Shelden written multiple biographies, but he has also interviewed about 250 people and written freelance articles for the Daily Telegraph, a newspaper published in London. During his time as a freelance writer, Shelden interviewed big names such as Cindy Crawford, Serena Williams and David Rockefeller.

Shelden found Rockefeller to be one of the most interesting people he’s interviewed because, with the interview set in the top office of Rockefeller Center, surrounded by famous works of art and a large window overlooking Manhattan, Shelden felt as if he had walked into a completely different world. Not only has Shelden gotten to meet famous people in his writing experiences, he has gotten to see important life lessons through those who he’s interviewed. Shortly after 9/11, he interviewed Christopher Reeve. Shelden said that although Reeves had been paralyzed while horseback riding, Reeves, as many other interviewees also did, taught him an important lesson about how much people take for granted. To learn more about those whom Shelden has interviewed and researched, the University Speakers Series has selected Shelden as their speaker for this Thursday at 7 p.m. in Tilson Auditorium.

Panel examines ethics of concussions in athletes Betty Simon, ISU Communications and Marketing It’s still OK to encourage youth to get involved in football and other contact sports where concussions occur, a group of panelists participating in a student-led discussion at Indiana State University determined. At the same time, the panelists at the event on March 25 concluded it is essential to teach players proper techniques in order to minimize the dangers of concussions. Panelists were Mike Sanford, Indiana State’s head football coach; Kendall Walker, an Indiana State linebacker who suffered a severe concussion last season; Chris Barrett, Terre Haute North Vigo High School head football coach and parent of a player as well as Dr. Thomas E. Klootwyk, an orthopedic surgeon for the Indianapolis Colts-Methodist Sports Medicine Team. Sanford said the Indiana State athletics department has a concussion policy based on the most recent research that

says players are not allowed back in the game until four days after they have stopped experiencing symptoms of a concussion. Players are also screened at a pre-season baseline testing to measure cognitive function pre-concussion. “Bottom line, we have a policy and I completely trust our athletic trainers and doctors to inform me when a player is well enough to return to the field,” he said. “I’ve been coaching 37 years and there’s been an evolutionary process on how concussions are treated. Sports medicine has changed and developed. I want a healthy team on the field that is able to compete, but when these guys love the game, that’s where the decision comes. Sometimes, more than outside pressure, I think it’s more about players not wanting to admit problems they’re experiencing because of a concussion, so we need to work on getting them to report problems. It’s about the kids.” The panel discussion was followed on March 26 by the Ethics Conference, which featured breakout sessions on

workplace ethics from 1-3:50 p.m. in Hulman Memorial Student Union’s Dede Activity Centers. Conference registration began at 11 a.m. with the conference starting at 11:45 a.m. An agenda is available at www.indstate.edu/ ethics. The panel discussion evolved from a PBS documentary on concussions, an injury Walker experienced for the first time last season when he sidelined for five weeks due to complications because of the injury. “I was a little frightened after it happened,” Walker said. “I’ve been through a lot of hard hits but things cleared up. When I got the concussion though, it was the first time that problems didn’t clear up and I stayed foggy for a while, and Coach Sanford was supportive of me through it, and he and the trainers listened to me and kept me off the field.” Klootwyk said it is the job of coaches and trainers to stay up-to-date on the latest concussion research and “return players to the field as soon as they can

safely.” “I don’t have a problem saying ‘Not today,’ to a player,” he said. “The problem is, unlike with a sprained ankle, where it’s easy to see a player limping, with a concussion sometimes the players don’t report their symptoms. Coaches and trainers need to watch more because better monitoring and assessing of players will help. We don’t know the long-term damage of concussions yet, but in the short-term we need to prevent catastrophic events and be better at pulling guys out of the game if there are problems.” It will also be beneficial to teach players good habits on the field from an early age, Sanford said. “A critical thing is having proper equipment for youth players and teaching proper tackling techniques,” he said. “I think a lot of people who are in coaching care about the kids and their ethics are generally in the right place when it comes to concussions in sports.”

Vigo County Public Library hosts various resources Adler Ingalsbe Reporter While students often take advantage of the Cunningham Memorial Library for studying, checking out material or just relaxing in between classes, there is another library close to campus that is often ignored: the Vigo County Public Library. On the corner of 7th and Poplar across the street from Cackleberries, it offers services not just to Terre Haute community members but students as well. Brittany Michaels, the Community Connections Coordinator at the Vigo Country Public Library, explained the various ways that students can take advantage of the services the library offers. “Students can use their address on campus to get a library card and can attend any number of the free events The Vigo County Public Library is a service open to the public that offers several features towards students, such as the inter-library that we have here every day,” she said. loan system as well as cultural and social events that are held both during weekdays and weekends (Photos by Samual Clark). “Once you have a library card, you can take advantage of our interlibrary loan Although there are currently no looking for a job, the Vigo County Public which are available for students looking services.” available paying positions for students Library offers volunteer internships, for work experience, Michaels explained.

“The Mystery of Edwin Drood” was Charles Dickens’ final work before his untimely end. Dickens never finished the story, thus leaving to murder unsolved. The Indiana State New Theater will attempt to solve this murder starting tonight as they recount the tale of Mr. Drood. The catch, however, is that the audience must find the killer (Photo by Sabrandi Powers).

long hours preparing for the upcoming performances. “There have been many long nights,” said Thurman who portrays the musical’s clergyman as well as the British actor beyond the character. With all of the possibilities for the musical’s improvisational ending, “you really have to be ready, on your feet,” theater major Nicole Hill said. Before the show begins, actors inform audience members of Charles Dickens untimely death before he could write an ending to his mystery. Because of such, the audience is greatly encouraged to take part in the show through conversations with actors, voting on

“whodunnit,” and even answering propositions for a little post-show treatment of loneliness. The large challenge of preparing song and dance numbers for any number of audience-determined outcomes has been the perfect learning tool for students like Hill. A mixture of improvisation and planning helps the actors perform these final numbers. Of course, charming the audience in their British roles helps solidify an actor’s place in the end, Hill said. As much fun as the Brits have on stage frequently breaking character and making crude comments, the story Dickens penned is quite enjoyable. After all,

The Statesman is in Full Bloom

without the growing feuds, great bouts of unrequited lust, and the delightful town drunk, the audience would have no clue who to vote for in the disappearance of Edwin “Drood-dah,” as the cast affectionately says. The Mystery of Edwin Drood will be in stage in Dreiser Theatre today through Sunday. Performances are nightly, beginning at 7:30 p.m., with the Sunday matinee at 2 p.m. Tickets are $20 for general admission and free for all students with their Indiana State IDs.

Sycamores slugged by visiting Redbirds Kevin Jenison ISU Athletic Media Relations

Indiana State:

The Indiana State Sycamore baseball team faced off with the Illinois State Redbirds in a three-game series over the weekend. The Sycamores dropped two out of the three games and fell to 17-7 on the year.

Men’s Baseball vs. Illinois State 1-11 (L) Women’s Softball vs. Illinois State 7-8 (L)

Game One

Indiana State trailed the Redbirds 5-1 going in to the bottom of the ninth, but mounted a rally after Mike Fitzgerald led off by singling up the middle. He went to second after Brian Romero reached on an error by Redbird second baseman Joe Klech and went to third when Tyler Wampler had a check-swing dribbler that Illinois State pitcher Dan Savas picked up and threw to second to get Romero out. That is when the rally took an unusual twist. Jeff Zahn hit what looked like a normal fly to center, but the Redbirds’ Sean Beesley dropped the ball, allowing Zahn to reach and Fitzgerald to score. Connor McClain came up as the tying run with one out, and that is when things got just a bit more unusual. McClain fouled off one pitch that hit a transformer and knocked out part of the lights on one tower around Bob Warn Field. After 15 minutes of discussion, the umpires allowed the game to resume without having to turn off the tower, letting it cool down and restarting it. McClain then smashed the ball to deep right centerfield, where it looked to the fans in the stands that the Redbird right fielder Logan Leverett had misplayed the catch at the fence and dropped the ball. However, the first-base umpire ruled that Levertt had made the catch, and the right fielder then threw to shortstop Dennis Colon at second, who doubled up Wampler as he was scrambling to get back to the bag. That ended the rally for the Sycamores. The game was just the second in 15 contests that the Sycamores have lost when they scored first. That run came in

the bottom of the second after Romero had reached on a one-out walk. Wampler and Zahn hit back-to-back singles to score Romero, but Indiana State left both runners stranded. That was all the scoring for Indiana State until the ninth inning. Illinois State tied the game with a single run in the top of the third, adding one more in the fifth, two in the eighth and one in the ninth. David Stagg started on the hill for the Sycamores and picked up the loss in allowing two runs on five hits, while striking out five and walking four. Nick

Kolarik, Austin Conway, A.J. McElderry, and John Patterson each worked in relief as they combined to give up three runs on four hits while stirking out three and walking five.

Game Two

Illinois State scored first, but it was the Sycamores who were in control most of the day as Indiana State defeated the visiting Illinois State Redbirds 9-2 in a Missouri Valley Conference game on Bob Warn Field at Sycamore Stadium Saturday.

the Sycamore bats that were hot as Indiana State was able to capitalize on nine hits, two Illinois State errors, a wild pitch, a balk, five walks and three hit batters to end the Redbirds four-game winning streak over Indiana State. Illinois State jumped in front 1-0 in the top of the first inning as Sean Beesley led off with a single, stole second and scored on a two-out single by Mike Hollenbeck. The Sycamores rallied for the lead in the bottom of the second. Wampler led off with a walk, went to second on a balk and scored the tying run on a Derek Hannahs sacrifice fly to center. Indiana State wasn’t done yet as Tony Rosselli singled, stole second and scored on Landon Curry’s RBI single. Curry scored when Cody Zimmerman tripled to right field to put the Sycamores up 3-1. Indiana State scored another run in the fourth with two outs when Rosselli walked, went to second on a wild pitch and scored on a Curry single. The Sycamores pushed two more across in the fifth to take a 6-1 lead. Mike Fitzgerald walked with one out and advanced to second on Tyler Wampler’s two-out infield single. Fitzgerald came around to score as Michael Eberle singled

to center and Wampler scored as Hannahs singled to right. Two more runs came across for Indiana State in the seventh without the benefit of a hit. Wampler reached on an errant throw by the Redbird shortstop which also allowed the Sycamore to advance to second. Estevez then put down a perfect sacrifice bunt to move Wampler to third. Hannahs followed with a walk, and Rosselli was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Landon Curry knocked in Wampler with a sacrifice fly to right with Hannahs moving on to third and Rosselli staying at first. Indiana State’s second run of the inning came from a throwing error by Redbird catcher Mike Hollenbeck. With Zimmerman at the plate, Rosselli took off on attempted steal with Hollenbeck’s throw going wide of its mark and into centerfield. That allowed Hannahs to score for the Sycamores, and Rosselli ended up at third. The final Indiana State run came in the eighth. Fitzgerald and Owen Conway hit back-to-back singles to open the inning with Conway out on second as Wampler hit in to a fielder’s choice. Hannahs came through with a two-out single to score Fitzgerald and gave Indiana State a 9-1 lead.

Illinois State was able to load the bases in the top of the ninth but could only get one run across the plate before the side was retired. Brad Lombard was the winning pitcher for Indiana State as he improved to 5-0 on the season in going 6.1 innings, and allowing a run on five hits while striking out four and walking four. Josh Dove worked a third of an inning and gave up two hits, before Ryan Keaffaber came on to finish the contest, going 2.1 innings in allowing a run on three hits while striking out two and walking two.

Game Three

Illinois State had two big innings, scoring seven runs in the third and four in the fourth to defeat the host Indiana State Sycamores 11-1 in a Missouri Valley Conference contest Sunday on Bob Warn Field at Sycamore Stadium. The game was called after seven innings due to the MVC 10-run rule. Kurt Kudrecki (3-3) started on the mound for Indiana State and lasted 3.1 innings before Austin Conway took over in the fourth. Conway faced just four batters before he was replaced by A.J. McElderry, who finished the contest. The Sycamores gave up 11 runs, seven earned, on seven hits while striking out just three. Jeremy Rhoades (2-2) had his best

outing of the season for Illinois State as he went the distance and struck out a season-high 12 Sycamores. He walked one and gave up one run on three hits. Rhoades had a perfect game going until the bottom of the fourth when Cody Zimmerman reached on a single. Tyler Wampler singled in the bottom of the fifth but he, too, was left stranded. Indiana State did mount a charge in the bottom of the seventh as Tony Rosselli reached on an error and took second on a wild pitch. Taylor Steen walked before Brian Romero struck out for the first out of the inning. Wampler hit into a fielder’s choice that got Rosselli out at third, but Jeff Zahn followed with a single to left that scored Steen as the Sycamores avoided the shut out. Indiana State hoped they had some two out magic left in them from Saturday night, but Connor McClain’s line drive towards left was snagged out of the air by the Redbird third baseman to end the game. The Sycamores will be back in action on the home field this Wednesday night when they entertain Austin Peay in a mid-week non-conference battle at 6 p.m. Indiana State will also be home for their next weekend conference series as they host Wichita State for three games starting Friday.

Eating your way through end-of-semester stress Stress. It is not exactly an uncommon word used around campus. I happen to have come down with one of the worst cases of senioritis I have ever seen. This most unfortunate ailment is plaguing many students at the moment, and is so contagious that it has begun to affect some juniors, and others as well. Procrastination is one Nutrition of the most detrimental Columnist signs and symptoms of this illness and can often lead to additional stress and panic. Some cope with stress well and need that extra pressure to produce optimum work. Others, however, turn to food, drinks and an endless succession of tears into their pillows. Emotional eating may seem like a mere excuse to some, but to others it is a reality that they may not even be aware of. If you have ever eaten when you are already full, this was a sign of emotional eating that was done for comfort or joy instead of satisfying hunger. Eating foods because they are delicious rather than nutritional is not necessarily a sign of stress eating. There are, however, other warning signs to be aware of, and knowing these can make you better equipped to avoid the effects entirely. Emotional hunger tends to comes on swiftly, while physical hunger arrives gradually. On the same hand, emotional hunger twinges feel as though they need to be satisfied that instant, as opposed to physical hunger pains that generally feel as though they can wait a little longer. Not only does emotional hunger often come with the “I want it now!” mentality, it will also bring the desire for a very specific food. If you have ever been truly hungry when you go to the grocery or a restaurant, literally everything on the menu looks good to you. Even brussel sprouts can make your mouth water. When you have hunger that is just being used as a coping mechanism, you may want something very specific, such as, “I simply cannot finish this assignment until I have some General Tso’s chicken and crab rangoon!” Another issue that will help identify your type of hunger is whether it goes

away afterwards. Maybe you did leave your desk in search of that Chinese food, but you come back and cannot solve your math problem or you take a look at your dwindling bank account and immediately feel the need to have something else to munch on. That would be considered emotional hunger, when it is simply not cured by having a full stomach. And one of the most telling signs is a feeling of guilt or shame after an indulgence. When you eat to satisfy hunger, you do not have a sense of powerlessness because is nourishment and energy that your body requires to continue functioning. When you feel guilt after a meal or a snack you tend to know, even subconsciously, that what you consumed was meant to satisfy a desire that was not entirely physiological. Once you can recognize what is emotional hunger and what is physical hunger, it is in your power to change your

actions. The first step is to identify your own triggers. Personally, I eat when I am stressed, bored and to reward myself. Others may consume more when they are depressed, angry, socially pressured feeling empty and out of childhood habits. If you are stressed, try to use physical activity, talk it out with a friend or family member or use another distraction such as retail therapy. If you tend to eat when you are bored, get up and do something productive. It is finally nice outside, so go for a walk, go to the park or entertain yourself with a new book or, heaven forbid, study. In respect to using food as a reward, you should slowly try to cut this habit. You are not a dog rolling over for a treat; rewarding yourself for a job well done may seem perfectly suitable. However, if you feel guilty afterwards, it can negate your previous positive feelings. Once your cravings hit, take a beat.

When you pause to identify why you are hungry, you may be able to better avoid it. If you know that you just want that snack because you are stressed out with loads of assignments and studying, take a breather, stretch or listen to some music. If you just cannot crush the urge, gather up your books and head to the library. You will not have access to your pantry there and will reduce your stress level if you put your nose to the grindstone and stop procrastinating. At first, not giving into cravings may seem unbearable and impossible. When you learn to cope with your span of emotions in a more positive manner, you may begin to realize that food really does not solve your problems, even if it seems to be the only satisfying way at the moment. Do not allow weight-gain and emotional eating to become one of the most predominant symptoms of senioritis.
