Bradley to return to ISU part-time after a year sabbatical Rileigh McCoy News Editor

President Bradley announced that he would be stepping down as President of Indiana State University. This announcement was made on April 26 and will take effect in January 2018 after a nine-year servitude to ISU, 17 years total as a university president. “Cheri and I will leave it to others to determine our legacy, but it is our hope that part of it will be a better institutional understanding of ISU’s true mission, vision and values and its commitment to student success,” said Bradley during his resignation announcement. “It has been a pleasure working with you, noting our progress and accomplishments. Together, we have set in place a foundation that prepares the university to move forward to meet the dreams and challenges of the future.” Bradley notes that some of his reasons for stepping down include that it is their time to re-

flect, enjoy their grandchildren, and plan their next great adventure. “I think that this is the right time for us and it’s a good time for the university,” Bradley said. “We tried to balance our desires with the needs of the university in terms of timing. This gives the university eight months to find a replacement, which is enough.” The timing for this announcement could not have been any better since the university just completed its most recent budget session. “He wanted to stay through the budget session and make sure that we were able to get as close to what we requested, and he didn’t want to interfere with that process by leaving before then,” said Dave Campbell, chair of the board of trustees. While Bradley’s time at ISU is nearing an end, it will not be the last that the university will see of him. He explained that he and Cheri plan to still be involved with ISU and Terre Haute. “My plan is, I get a one year

leave of absence or sabbatical, after that my plan is to be about a half-time employee,” Bradley said, “if not working full time. And what I’ll be doing will be dependent on what the president and the Provost want me to do.” Bradley explained that this is

not a job you can do part time when he and Cheri wish to spend more time with family. “They have missed their family and this just seemed like the right time for them,” Campbell said. “And I don’t think there’s any other reason than they chose now to step back and enjoy life.”

Campbell further explained the impact that the President and First Lady have had on the campus. “ISU is a better place because of Dan and Cheri,” Campbell said. “And they’ve been remarkably good [for the university].” Bradley explained that despite the heavily positive impact he has had on the campus, he will not have any say in who will be following in his steps. Campbell noted that the search for a new president has begun and he has no worries of finding an equal replacement. However, Bradley’s work here is not done. “Between now and January, Cheri and I hope to be able to say thank you to each of you for the vital role you played in our collective success,” said Bradley in his email announcement. “We are proud of what has been accomplished together. Of course, between now and then, you can rest assured that there is much

Students react to resignation Kiara Dowell Reporter

President Bradley is stepping down from office and the students are shocked. He was the university’s 11th president and his resignation will be put in effect as of January 2018. He has been someone everyone could look up to, and many of the students will miss him dearly. “I am really sad to see him leave,” sophomore Emma Thomas said. “He has done a lot for the organizations and the students in general, especially with the administration.” Thomas is not the only one who is sad to see him go. Many students will miss his outgoing personality and his dedication to the university. “He would always come out to support the shows and support the students,” said theatre major Nicole Hill. “I hope someone comes in and can do what he did. He was dedicated to the organizations and the students in the university.” Many students did not know the president personally, but recognized all the great things he did for the students. “I am a first year and did not get to know him, but I met him a couple of times, and he is really full of energy and got some sweet moves,” freshmen Kodi Mink said. President Bradley has his reasons for stepping down; he would like to spend more time with his

family. In the email he said, “The past nine years have been amazing and rewarding. As has often been said, however, there is a time for everything. Now is our time to reflect, to enjoy our grandkids and to plan our next great adventure.” Bradley further noted in his email that “Seventeen years as university president and a first lady on two campuses is undoubtedly enough.” In the midst of his resignation, there are still students who never got a chance to meet him. He has always been someone people can look up to, according to freshman Amber Johnson. “I’ve never met him face to face; all I got were a few emails. Are we going to have lemonade stands? He was always interactive,” Johnson said. While the resignation might be surprising, it is understandable. “We hate to see him leave the presidency, but the trustees certainly understand his desire to step away from this very hectic and demanding position. He and Cheri have far surpassed their peers in the longevity of their service to higher education. We appreciate all they have done to position the institution for future success,” said chair of the ISU Board of Trustees, David Campbell. Junior Josh Luna believes he will be missed but deserves the time off. “He has been here for nine years,” Luna said. “He has a long list of accomplishments. He is a very nice man, and definitely deserves his retirement.”

Can Democrats force Republicans’ hands on Trump’s tax returns? Eric Garcia CQ-Roll Call (TNS) WASHINGTON — House Democrats want to force Republicans’ hands on President Donald Trump’s tax returns — but it remains to be see how effective posturing can be for the minority. House Democrats plan to have Massachusetts Rep. Katherine M. Clark introduce legislation requiring Trump to release his tax returns from 2007 to 2016, according to The Washington Post. Democrats know that this move will likely fail. But Jim Manley, a former adviser to Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, said there were some political benefits. “It’s a smart move on their part, but given the rules of the House, I am not sure they will get an opportunity to force it,” Manley said. “But it sure gives a good message for Democrats to drive home, especially as the administration touts its so-called tax reform.”

US President Donald Trump signs a Memorandum on Aluminum Imports and Threats to National Security in the Oval Office of the White House on April 27, 2017 in Washington, D.C.

The ultimate aim of the legislation is to get Republicans voting on record against releasing an unpopular president’s tax returns. Democrats are trying to tie Republicans to other controversies involving Trump.

Democrats’ warning: GOP health care vote could force shutdown Rema Rahman CQ-Roll Call (TNS) If House Republicans press for a vote this week on a revised health care legislative vehicle, it could unravel delicate negotiations to avoid a government shutdown. House Minority Whip Steny H. Hoyer on Thursday morning advised his Democratic caucus to vote against a one-week stopgap funding measure if Republicans bring their health care bill to the floor this week. The Maryland Democrat said in a statement Thursday that he would not support a continuing resolution expected to come to the House floor this week before government funding runs out midnight on Friday because Democrats want a repeal and replacement plan off the table. “If Republicans pursue this partisan path of forcing Americans to pay more for less and destabilizing our county’s health care system — without even knowing how much their bill will cost — Republicans should be prepared to pass a one-week Continuing Resolution on their own,” Hoyer said. A Democratic aide said Hoyer called Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy Thursday to let him know. Meanwhile, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told reporters Thursday that other problems persist with negotiations on spending measures. “More progress needs to be made on some of our priorities and we continue to be concerned about the poison pill riders that are in the bill,” Pelosi said, citing policy riders concerning abortion and financial regulations. “Some of my members do not want any CR. They think this is plenty of time and they’re not going to vote for the CR, but de-

pending on where we are on the bill, some will,” she said. Speaker Paul D. Ryan, in the midst of rounding up support for both a funding solution and the health care vote, wasn’t amused. “I would be shocked that they would want to see a government shutdown,” he said, noting the reason the negotiations are still ongoing is because Democrats are “dragging their feet.” “Periodically they haven’t even been showing up for the negotiations,” Ryan said of Democrats. But even without Democratic votes, Ryan said he believes the House can pass the one-week CR. “I’m confident that we’ll be able to pass a short-term extension,” he said. Pelosi seemed ready for a counter-punch. “When they say something about us, they are projecting their own views,” Pelosi said of Republican criticism on the Democrats’ negotiating tactics. “When (President Donald Trump) is saying something, he is saying, ‘This is what I would do.’ He is projecting his own bad intentions.” Trump tweeted Thursday to also complain about Democrats’ negotiating tactics. Pelosi explained that the Democrats “long ago” decided that the only reason they would vote for a short-term CR is if they had an agreement and needed more time to finish drafting it. At the moment, they do not have an agreement, she said. “We still have outstanding areas of concern — Puerto Rico, disaster assistance … and then we have the poison pills,” she said. Pelosi suggested recent rumblings that Republicans are hoping to use the same-day rule authority for both a one-week continuing resolution and for

New York Rep. Jerrold Nadler introduced a resolution of inquiry in February that would ask the Justice Department to investigate Trump’s potential conflicts of interest, ethics violations and ties to Russia. Nadler sought a full floor vote if the House Judiciary Commit-

tee didn’t act. But his resolution went nowhere either in committee or on the floor. Republican strategist Michael Steel, who worked for former Speaker John A. Boehner, said it’s unlikely that the Democrats can score points on Trump’s tax returns.

“It’s clearly not an issue that hurt the president in the general election,” said Steel, who also worked for former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush’s presidential campaign where he ran against Trump. “It’s not a high-priority issue for the American people,” he said. “And it doesn’t help Washington Democrats appeal to the swing voters they would need in the midterms.” Republicans used similar tactics when they were in the minority, Steel said. But Republicans, he said, also pushed for procedural votes that were able to split Democrats on issues like immigration and guns. “The powers of the minority in the House are very limited, which makes it even more important to do it in a smart way,” he said. Manley isn’t opposed to using procedural votes against Republicans now that they’re in the majority. “When you’re in minority in House it’s difficult to follow through,” he said. “But it gives a great message,” he said.

Audit finds UC president’s office paid excessive salaries, mishandled budget money Patrick McGreevy Los Angeles Times (TNS) The administration of the University of California system pays its executives salaries and benefits significantly higher than those given to state employees in similar roles, and failed to disclose up to $175 million in budget reserve funds as it recently proposed a raise in tuition, according to a state audit released Tuesday. The audit findings, state lawmakers said Tuesday, confirm problems that have been a concern to them for years. University of California spending has been a perennial hot-button issue for legislators, students and union officials, many of whom have questioned the system’s priorities and transparency — and whether its educational mission has suffered. In a letter to Gov. Jerry Brown and the Legislature, State Auditor Elaine Howle detailed systemic budgetary reporting failures in the office of UC President Janet Napolitano. “Our report concludes that the Office of the President has amassed substantial reserve funds, used misleading budgeting practices, provided its employees with generous salaries and atypical benefits, and failed to satisfactorily justify its spending on systemwide initiatives,” Howle wrote. Administrative growth and executive compensation have been two of the more contentious UC system expenditures in recent years. The Los Angeles Times reported two years ago that the number of UC employees making more than $500,000 annually had grown by 14 percent in the previous year and the system’s administrative ranks had swelled by 60 percent over the decade — far outpacing ten-

ure track faculty. UC officials defended the increases as necessary to compete with other world-class institutions and keep up with advancing technology and growing enrollment. The university’s budget — larger than those of some 25 state governments — is so big and so complex that it can be puzzling even to California legislative experts and watchdogs. Lawmakers said Tuesday that the audit they requested shows the UC Office of the President sitting on tens of millions of dollars that could have been used to admit more students or avoid a recent proposal to raise tuition by nearly 3 percent next fall. “It is shocking. It is disappointing, but it’s not totally unexpected,” said Democratic Assemblyman Kevin McCarty of Sacramento, who asked for the audit with another legislator. “We’re jacking up tuition for middle-class families, we are squeezing access, and at the same time we are sitting on this $175 million suitcase in the corner,” McCarty said. The Legislature, which gives the UC system billions of dollars annually, plans to use the audit findings to demand reforms as part of this year’s budget process, he said. Napolitano disputed the audit’s finding that there were tens of millions in surplus funds hidden and not committed to any program. The money has been assigned to various university initiatives, she said. The audit was highly critical of how the university system administration handled money. “Furthermore, when we sought independent perspective from campuses about the quality and cost of the services and programs the Office of the President provides to them, the Office of the President intentionally in-

terfered with our audit process,” Howle wrote. Democratic Assemblyman Phil Ting of San Francisco, who joined McCarty in requesting the audit, had asked that it determine whether individual campuses were duplicating any administration services provided by the Office of the President. “That question was not answered because the UC Office of the President intercepted all of the confidential surveys and had the answers changed,” Ting said. McCarty added that legislators will hold a hearing on the alleged interference next week to make sure there are consequences for UC administrators. “It’s clear there needs to be systemic reform from top to bottom of the university, and this is merely the first step,” Ting said of the overall audit findings. Students are frustrated by the problems and want reform, said Ralph Washington Jr., president of the University of California Students Association. He is concerned legislators may use the audit to say the UC system doesn’t need so much money from the state’s general fund. “Students definitely don’t want their tuition to go up,” he said. Given recent tuition hikes, Howle recommended that the Office of the President give available funds in the reserves back to the campuses. “The reserve included $32 million in unspent funds it received from an annual charge levied on the campuses — funds that campuses could have spent on students,” the audit said. Napolitano agreed with the vast majority of recommendations for improving budget processes and spending, but said the auditors misunderstand how the $175 million was budgeted. “In fact, (the UC Office of the

Lincoln Quad without air for over a month Ashton Hensley Reporter

Students living in the Quads have been without air for several weeks.

Lincoln Quad without air for over a month The plague of broken-down air conditioning sweeping Indiana State University reached Lincoln Quad soon after Reeves Hall was fixed. The air conditioning has been out in Lincoln Quad for over a month, which residents said are causing several issues within the dorms. Residents are agreeing that the amount of money they pay to live on campus is too high to then have to go over a month with no air. Stella Stigall, a sophomore psychology major, said that it seems to her that res-life does

not care about the residents. “They refuse to give any residents refunds, even though it’s been over a month,” Stigall said. “They claim that it hasn’t been that hot. Well, it’s 85 degrees right now, and I’m sweating in my own room.” Amanda Knerr, the executive director of residential life and housing, said that it has taken so long to fix the AC because they are waiting on a part to be delivered. “Because of the age of the building, the necessary part is no longer carried in stock and has to be manufactured as it is ordered,” Knerr said. “The company estimated that it would take some time to build the necessary replacement.” An email was sent out to Lin-

coln Quad residents on April 10 and last Tuesday explaining that they had to wait for the part. Knerr said that people have also been updated through social media. “Once it arrives, we will proceed immediately with installing the equipment and restoring functioning of the impacted air-conditioning and the lighting in the community building/Lincoln dining,” Knerr said. In the latest email update, residential life said that the AC would be fixed by next Wednesday if not sooner. That being said, residents are still unhappy with the way the situation has been handled. “I feel neglected and taken advantage of by res-life,” Stigall said.

President’s) budget and financial approaches reflect strategic, deliberate and transparent spending and investment in UC and state priorities,” said a statement by the Office of the President. In a letter to Howle, the president said changes were already underway. “The recommendations to (the UC president’s office) are helpful,” Napolitano wrote. However, Board of Regents Chair Monica Lozano and Regent Charlene Zettel asked Howle to remove recommendations that they said encroach on the autonomy of the university system as laid out in California’s Constitution, including proposals to require legislative approval

of the Office of the President’s budget, and to appoint a third party to oversee operations. “As written, we believe these recommendations threaten the University’s standing as a constitutionally autonomous entity, and the Board of Regents itself,” the regents wrote. Auditors said salaries paid to staff in the UC president’s office are much higher than the pay of comparable positions in other state government jobs. Administrative salaries amounted to a combined $2.5 million more than the maximum annual salaries for comparable state employee positions, auditors found. For instance, the UC system’s chief investment officer has a base salary of $615,000, while the top investment officer with

the state’s teachers’ retirement system is paid $568,000, the audit found. University of California’s executive vice president and chief financial officer is paid $412,000, while an executive doing a comparable job with the California State University system makes $341,000. The UC system’s general counsel is paid $428,000 a year, while an employee in the same position with the California Public Employees’ Retirement System takes in $414,000, the audit says. “Ten executives in the Office of the President whose compensation we analyzed were paid a total of $3.7 million in fiscal year 2014-15 — over $700,000 more than the combined salaries of their highest paid state employee counterparts,” the audit said.

J. Caesar features a cast of all women, breaking the stereotypes of an ordinary production.

J. Caesar breaks gender role stereotypes Kiara Dowell Reporter

A play filled with action and powerful women, J. Caesar will be showing through April 26 to 30 in the New Theatre. The show is set in the year 2416, and all women have to survive in a post-apocalyptic world with almost complete societal collapse due to war and natural disaster. It is a story of these women who band together to become an indestructible force. “They protect their society by fighting. They are strong warriors. One woman, Julia Caesar, is rising up to the top, and not everyone likes that,” associate professor of theatre, Julie Dixon said. Dixon is the director of J. Caesar. The women band together to create a city-state called New Rome. Tracy Power and James McDonald created this all-woman adaptation of Caesar. “Knowing we were going to do an all-woman adaptation of Julius Caesar was an exciting thing, I think, especially for women and men of our time. It’s so im-

portant to us that we convey that women can play roles that men traditionally play,” senior Nicole Hill said. The cast and crew have rehearsed for five days a week, three hours a day, for approximately ten weeks prior to the opening night. According to Julie Dixon, the main characters are Cassius played by Jo Reger and Brutus played by Kate Moore. Hill plays Julia Caesar, a tyrant among women, who plays a significant role in the play. “Caesar is the new queen-tobe of Rome, and she is the most powerful and successful fighter of all the characters in the play. In this world, survival is key, and her being the most powerful is what works to her advantage. All the other people admire her or envy her,” Hill said. According to Hill, the cast was able to bond over the rehearsal process. Memorizing a show written in Shakespearian verse, they were able to get to know each other and form a team. “My experience with the cast was unlike any other. Only for

Her Color Shines will recognize women from all backgrounds Ian Bonner-Swedish Reporter

‘Her Color Shines’ is an event celebrating all women of color at ISU. Students, faculty and staff will be recognized for multiple aspects, including leadership and academic performance. This event will take place Saturday. Mekisha Bickley, the event organizer, gave details on the event. “The goal of this event is to acknowledge and award young women of color (faculty, staff, and student) at Indiana State University for their exceptional leadership, academic performance, and resilience,” Bickley said. According to Bickley, the event will start off glamorously. “The event will begin with an actual red carpet walk between 5:30 and 6 p.m. The program will begin promptly at 6 p.m., where those nominated will be recognized, and the winner will be presented with a glass award,” Bickley said. Although the event occurs annually, each year they recognize a different demographic group of women. This year

women of Hispanic and Latina decent are celebrated along with others. “Each year, different populations of women will be recognized. Last year, we acknowledged the phenomenal accomplishments of our black students, faculty and staff. This year we are adding and acknowledging the remarkable student, faculty, and staff of Hispanic/Latina descent.” This event is open to all students, staff, and faculty who wish to come and view the red carpet and award ceremony. Bickley has a humble hope turnout for this event. “I hope to have a room filled with students, faculty members, families and friends, all present to recognize the accomplishments of these exceptional women,” she said. “I think that it serves the ISU community very well. Not only does this event acknowledge students and faculty/staff for their excellence, but it also serves to promote leadership, academic performance and dedication to young women of all nationality, race and ethnicity.” While the awards are nice,

Cultural conflict hits a comedic sweet spot for Kumail Nanjiani Glenn Whipp

Los Angeles Times (TNS)

When he was 18, Kumail Nanjiani emigrated from Karachi, Pakistan, to Iowa to go to college. Four years later his parents came to the U.S., settling in New Jersey. Nanjiani welcomed the thousand-mile buffer zone, not because he didn’t love his parents but because they expected, per traditional Pakistani culture, that they’d soon be finding a young woman for him to wed in an arranged marriage. His mother wasn’t letting distance deter her either, emailing Nanjiani pictures of prospective matches, some of whom he knew from Karachi. Nanjiani had no intention of

letting his parents dictate his choice of a romantic partner. But he also had no idea how to broach the subject with them. “I was really scared of visiting them because I knew they were really into it,” Nanjiani, best known for his work on the celebrated HBO comedy “Silicon Valley,” reveals in the garage office of the Los Feliz home he shares with his wife, Emily V. Gordon. Nanjiani mined that cultural conflict in “The Big Sick,” a movie he wrote with Gordon about their real-life rocky romance, a relationship that faced numerous hurdles, including a serious illness and the specter of familial betrayal. The film premiered to

great acclaim at Sundance in January, sparking a bidding war that resulted in a $12 million sale to Amazon Studios. “The Big Sick” (in theaters June 23) upends expectations at every turn, beginning as an engaging romantic-comedy and then becoming a sometimes harrowing (but still funny) and deeply personal drama that takes in cultural assimilation, growing up and medically induced comas. Nanjiani stars, portraying a version of himself, with Zoe Kazan playing the Emily character. The movie’s most dynamic element might be the spot-on specificity of its Pakistani family,

HPV awareness event informed students of the virus Ian Bonner-Swedish Reporter

Certain strains of HPV can cause various forms of cancers, such as cervical cancer, which was the primary topic of the conversation at an event that was held in the library to spread awareness of the disease. It started with a documentary detailing the issue and chronicled. Susie was a woman who lived purely by what her family had taught her. She abstained from sex until she married her high school sweetheart. Although under her circumstances, she was one of the many to contract HPV. Information of what HPV is and what it means is not well understood in some communities, for it is never spoken about.

Christine Baze took her health quite seriously and did quite well, but cervical cancer caused by HPV changed the dynamic of her life entirely. To fight the cancer, she had to remove portions of her vagina as well as get it “fried” with radiation. Her husband at the time was not supportive of her decision. Women such as Susie and Christine did not let this break them. Susie divorced her husband, beat the dysplasia caused by HPV and was promoted. Susie bought a house that she lived in with her children after being promoted. Kristen Forbes was a 23 year old who grew up in Noblesville, Ind. “She had a strong worth ethic, very compassionate, very intelligent, a kind friend and sister and a humorous person,” her father said.

She had graduated college and had a well-paying job and an apartment, but that all changed when they found out that she had cervical cancer caused by HPV. By the time they had found this, the cancer had spread to her entire body. Her family was distraught, and so was she. Kristen did not let the news beat her and was determined to fight it. Soon the cancer became too much and she had to be put on life support. “She wrote in her journal that she wanted to die on a Sunday when it’s sunny,” Kristen’s father said. Her family obliged her wish, and she breathed her last breath exactly the way she wished. ISU presented this to make sure women regularly monitor their health and are informed about the available options to

eliminate risk. Janet Weatherly explained how students should plan to take care of themselves. “There are hundreds of types of HPV. And there only so many that causes genital warts. There are types of HPV that are heredity but won’t put you at risk of genital warts or cancer. Normally having worked on a program, we find women in their 50s who are infected with HPV they got in their teens. Certain strains are slower than others, so monitoring it is key, “ Weatherly said. The panel at the event wanted students to know that they are able to receive three vaccinations that prevents contraction of the most virulent and cancer causing HPV strains.

They are by turns caring and disapproving, funny, weird and exasperating — in other words, a typical family. “We knew from the beginning that the movie would be good or bad depending on the family,” Nanjiani says. “If we show a truly loving family, then the stakes for the relationship are that much higher. If it’s a family that’s strict and cold — which is what you see from stereotypical portrayals of Muslim families — then it’s going to be a disservice, both to my actual parents and to the movie itself.” The events depicted in the film took place a decade ago. Shortly afterward, Nanjiani, 39, realized he had spent years defining himself by rejecting his Pakistani heritage. He still struggles with his identity. He doesn’t feel American, and he doesn’t feel Pakistani. But through his writing as a comedian, he’s continuing to get a handle on how he fits in with American culture.

Producer Judd Apatow, who worked with Nanjiani and Gordon for three years honing the script, believes the movie’s truthful depiction of the immigrant experience is essential in the current, heated political climate. “We didn’t make the movie to be political at all, but I’m glad at this moment that this movie exists,” Apatow says. “I’m also glad we didn’t make it in this environment because maybe we would have done it differently. It doesn’t have a chip on its shoulder in any way. It’s just showing a normal, loving family. It’s unfortunate that there have been so few portrayals of Muslim families in America.” Nanjiani’s parents haven’t seen the film yet. Premiering it at Sundance was stressful enough without adding another layer of anxiety. “But we’ve already had the awkward conversation — one of many awkward conversations,” Nanjiani says. “I’m still trying to figure out how to have an adult relationship with my parents. The movie ends with the first step. I’d like to think we’ve taken a couple of more in the past 10 years.” a lot from each other.” Dixon said this show has a very powerful message for women. Showing strong independent women in a play is empowering and inspiring for young women in society today. “When you are a woman on stage, you are probably supporting a man. You are there to be the man’s love interest, or the man’s mother, assistant district attorney, but you are not there to be the lead,” Dixon said.

LGBT education in school is a must Whitney Slaton Columnist

With the LGBT community gaining in numbers each day, it is becoming increasingly necessary for LGBT education to be taught in public schools. Many states do not have an LGBT education class in their schools, and a few allow LGBT issues to be taught in a negative manner or how the teacher feels is necessary, which is not always positive. However, LGBT education is a necessity if we want youth to be accepting of their LGBT peers and for LGBT youth to be alive and healthy. According to the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network, eight states currently have “No Promo Homo” laws. These laws are characterized by states allowing public schools to teach that being part of the LGBT community is wrong, or not allowing schools to discuss homosexual or transgender health to students. Students in school districts that follow these laws are in danger of being oppressed through the ignorance of not only their peers, but also their teachers. LGBT students that are taught that being in the LGBT community is wrong could develop internalized homophobia that could lead to self-harm and suicide. Straight students are at a greater risk of being ignorant of the LGBT community and possibly bullying and harassing their LGBT peers if they are not taught that being homosexual or transgender is acceptable. The Trevor Project, a project for LGBT suicide awareness, says that lesbian, gay and bisexual youth are 8.4 times more likely to commit suicide when people that have or will reject them surround them. Forty percent of transgender adults reported making a suicide attempt when they were younger. Schools need to know these rates so that they can help prevent students from harming themselves or others. If an LGBT student simply knows that they have a support system and who they are is not wrong, they may not self-harm or commit suicide. Meanwhile, if a straight student knows that being LGBT is acceptable and therefore does not bully and harass their LGBT peers, they help prevent LGBT self-harm and suicide. Providing LGBT students with a safe school environment is extremely important, as they may not have a positive environment at their home. Students should

Yet another Trump order is blocked by court Zach Davis Columnist

Donald Trump has made it no secret that he wants to squelch immigration. Everyone might recall that he already tried enacting one ban. More recently, he also made changes to the H-1B visa system, reducing the amount of foreign workers coming to work here. He didn’t stop there, though. He wrote an executive order against “sanctuary cities,” stating that they had to comply with immigration services, or the cost would be their federal funding – an order that was promptly struck down by the 9th Circuit Court. First, we need to know that “sanctuary cities” are areas where illegal immigration is handled vastly differently than the rest of the country. For example, in San Francisco, local police can’t alert immi-

gration services when an illegal immigrant is released from jail. That offers a bit of a safety net so they don’t have to live in unsanitary or unsafe conditions out of fear of exposure. While this can be problematic, Trump’s overreach of power was even worse. Luckily Judge William Orrick of the 9th Circuit saw that and stopped parts of the order right there. The official court documents with the ruling clearly outline everything that was wrong with Trump’s order. First he tried to take away federal funds, a power that is reserved solely for Congress as dictated by the Constitution. That is relatively basic information, one of the few things that are easy to remember, besides the first few amendments. Our president should know that, especially since that is pretty much where his job description comes from. It also violates limitations the Supreme Court placed on federal spending in the past. Trump’s order was unclear, a blatant violation of unambiguous requirement from National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius. The 2012 ruling requires that

the conditions for federal funding must be clear, and conditions can’t be changed after the fact. The executive order also violated the Nexus Requirement, which says federal funding received for one purpose has to be used for that purpose alone. Trump’s order takes away a broad array of funding, including Medicare and emergency funding in the name of immigration. The use of that funding, though, is not meant for immigration. The same part of the order also violates another restriction called the non-coercive requirement. Basically, federal funds can’t be used to strong-arm local governments into changing their policies, which is exactly what Trump tried to do with his order. Trump’s lack of understanding how the government works is disturbing. These are all things the president and his cabinet should be aware of. His reaction was just as alarming. The White House issued a statement that berated the ruling and the judge, rubbing in the fact that Judge Orrick is unelected. He forgets, though, that judges can be appointed as well, as in this case. In fact, there are four

ways states choose judges, all of them valid. As long as his position was attained legally then the method does not matter, especially since we didn’t rewrite laws to bypass approval. The statement calls the decision an “egregious overreach” of the judge’s power. This is simply false, though, since that is the literal purpose of the judicial branch. Again, anybody who knows even the basic way our government runs should know that. This remark is even worse knowing that Trump’s order not only violated Supreme Court precedents, but also the Constitution. The president is only one branch of the government – he doesn’t have unlimited power. Actually, it’s the opposite: his power is limited quite a bit, and that’s why his order failed. A quick re-read of the Constitution would shed light on that. Everybody in the country should know this, especially our officials. Otherwise we begin to get people who think they have too much power and ruin it for everyone, a problem that is completely preventable.

Five things I learned while writing for the Statesman Leah Kennedy Columnist

Five things I learned while writing for the Statesman: Our time is winding down to a close. I won’t be writing three times a week for a while because summer is coming. I want to take time to thank you for reading my stuff every week, and a special thank you to those professors of mine who have sent me emails complimenting my work. I don’t know yet if I will be coming back to the Statesman next semester because I will be living off campus and preparing to marry

the love of my life. So, with that said, here are five things I have learned since I began writing for the Statesman last semester. The first thing I learned while writing for the Statesman is that deadlines approach much faster than you think. Now, I am a class A procrastinator, so one would think that I would know that I cannot just push off work, but I never learn. I procrastinate and wait and ignore work sometimes. That’s why every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday around 11 p.m., my editor gets an email from me in his inbox. I procras-

tinate my articles mostly because I don’t know what to write about, but also because I get busy with my life. I’m a full time college student who tries to keep her days off for herself, but I also am engaged, so I’ve got things piling up. Sometimes deadlines slip. I want to thank my editor for being so kind and editing the messes I sometimes send him. Another thing I learned while writing for the Statesman is that word count is either hard to reach or too little to properly explain your ideas. I struggle with this some times because I

am either passionate and have a lot to say, or not really feeling my topic but too close to the deadline to change. That’s where the procrastinator in me comes out. The third thing I learned is that I’ve developed a sort of fond familiarity with you, friends. I call you all friends, and though I don’t know you, I appreciate the time we spend together each week. I like that you all choose to spend some time with my ramblings. Yet another thing I learned while writing for the Statesman is that people don’t seem to care what I have to say. As in, they

do not get offended. I sort of expected some backlash, but I didn’t seem to get any. At least none I heard personally. The final thing I learned from writing for the Statesman is that I really like having something to do that is just me. The Statesman as a whole is a team, but my little column is just my thoughts, and I really like that. I really hope you guys enjoyed our time together because I did. As always friends, I’ve had a great time, and have an awesome week. I’ll talk to you soon.

Friday, April 28, 2017 • Page 7 der identities. These clubs are sometimes the only place where a student can truly be themselves due to their home situation, so having this outlet can significantly help a student have a positive, accepting place to go. Teaching LGBT sex education in schools is another way that schools can help LGBT students feel accepted and create a positive environment. Most schools

only teach heterosexual sex education, however, this causes LGBT students to feel left out and not learn the information they may need. Through LGBT sex education, these students feel included and learn how to have healthy relationships in the same way that straight students are learning in their sex education. On top of learning healthy relationships, LGBT sex educa-

tion also teaches about the many different sexual orientations and gender identities. Having all students learn about sexual orientations and gender identities can help students learn who they are much faster, and through the classroom setting, they will know that their school is a safe and accepting space. LGBT education needs to be taught in all schools across the

nation in order to adequately teach all students equally. If teaching LGBT education can be the reason that the self-harm and suicide rates of LGBT youth lower, then it should be a no-brainer that all states create laws to start teaching it immediately. Allowing the “No Promo Homo” laws to continue is simply inhumane and denying LGBT youth of their basic human rights.

She is leading the staff in innings pitched with 178.1; the next closest is 76 IP by junior Savanna Dover. If the Indiana State women’s softball team wants a chance at taking this series and getting back on track with their season, they will need to really shut down these key players that the University of Southern Illinois have on their team. First pitch on Friday will begin at 12 p.m. and can be seen on The Valley on ESPN3. Saturday will start at 2:30 p.m. and Sunday they will play in the morning at 11 am.

ISU track and field teams gear up to get on the road for the 108th running of the prestigious Drake Relays this week.

ISU set to compete in 108th running of historic Drake Relays Tyler Wooten

ISU Athletic Media Relations

Indiana State men’s and women’s track and field will hit the road this week to compete at the 108th running of the prestigious Drake Relays. As with past years, some of the best athletes in the world will take the track in Des Moines, many of whom will compete in the 2017 IAAF World Championships in London and recently competed in the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio. In the college division, Indiana State will be sending some of the finest in the NCAA, including six current Sycamores ranked in the national top-50. Top among them is senior hurdler Marcus Neely, who will be looking to keep the historic success of Sycamore hurdlers at the Drake Relays going. Neely enters the meet ranked 18th in the NCAA and 10th in the East Region in the 110-meter hurdles at 13.79, not far off his overall career-best 13.70 run at last season’s MVC Outdoor Championships. Neely will be looking to replicate former

Sycamore All-American Adarius Washington’s success from the 2016 Drake Relays, where he won the university/college division 110-meter hurdles at a blistering and wind-legal career-best time of 13.40 in the rain – the third-best time in school history and at the time No. 1 in the NCAA, No. 2 in the United States and under the standard for both the U.S. Olympic Trials and the Rio Olympic Games. For the second straight season, Neely will also be a member on ISU’s shuttle hurdle relay team at the Relays. Neely and teammates Daley Carter, Justin Wolz and Michael Boger will look to include themselves on an illustrious list of former Sycamore teams to bring home the shuttle hurdle title from Drake – including just last season. The most memorable title, of course, is the 2001 team that included superb hurdlers like NCAA Champion Aubrey Herring and current ISU assistant coach Jeff Martin – who set the Drake Relays record (and still-standing ISU record) at 55.06. Fellow senior Daley Carter will run in the 110-meter hurdles as well, entering with the 40th-best time in the nation at

14.09. Four other national top-50 hurdlers will be in the fray, including Iowa’s Aaron Mallett (5th, 13.56), Milwaukee’s Nate Pozolinski (12th, 13.70), Purdue’s Justin Veteto (36th, 14.06) and Ohio State’s DaJuan Seward (49th, 14.12). Another returning victor is senior All-American David Timlin, who won an exciting 1500-meter race in the rain at Relays in 2016. Timlin just returned to the track this outdoor season two weeks ago at the Gibson Invitational at home, but last season he won the Relays title by one-hundredth of a second at 3:45.28 after an incredible kick on his final lap. Also entering the meet in the men’s national top-50 is high jumper Jaime Murtagh in 40th at 2.12m (6-11.50). On the women’s side, junior Taylor Austin enters as the top-ranked Sycamore nationally. She currently stands 29th nationally and 11th regionally in the 3,000-meter steeplechase at 10:17.73 – narrowly off her school-record 10:17.70 ran last season. Austin will run in the steeple on Saturday morning in addition to running a leg on the women’s 4x1600-meter relay on Thursday evening. Last season, the Syc-

amore quartet of Austin, Brooke Moore, Brittany Neeley and Abigail Grider broke the school record at 19:57.60, which this year’s relay of Moore, Austin, Grider and Taylor Rogers will attempt to topple. Another school record that could come down is the long-standing 4x800-meter relay time of 8:48.97 set in 1995. Moore – who enters the weekend 46th in the NCAA in the 800 at 2:06.74 – will join a fearsome relay team of Imani Davis (2:11.26), Brittany Neeley (2:12.01) and Alethia Marrero (2:06.33). Based upon last week’s USTFCCCA #EventSquad rankings, that 800 foursome would currently rank 12th in the NCAA at a total of 8:36.34 Marrero’s 800-time also enters the meet high on the national and regional lists, ranking 37th in the NCAA and 20th in the East Region. Indiana State’s stay at the 2017 Drake Relays begins Thursday night in the Distance Carnival, with the women’s 4x1600-meter relay at 7:40 p.m. ET and both the women’s and men’s 10,000-meter races at 8:30 and 9:10 p.m. ET, respectively.

Sycamore baseball prepares to take on Bradley starting Friday by noon.

Baseball welcomes Bradley for weekend series

The Indiana State baseball team hosts Bradley at Bob Warn Field this weekend beginning with a Friday doubleheader starting at noon ET. Tony Rosselli (.357, 7 2B, 6 HR, 29 RBI) and Tyler Friis (.304, 5 2B, 15 BB, 8 SB) lead the Trees at the plate while Brandt Nowaskie and Dane Tofteland are hitting .346 and .293 in limited action, respectively. Giesler is tops on the squad with 10 home runs and 31 RBIs. As a team, the Sycamores are hitting .272 and have hit for 64 doubles, 12 triples and 38 homers. ISU pitching has struck out 323 batters and hold a combined 4.81 ERA. Eastern Illinois comes into play with an 18-20 overall record after falling to Illinois in their last outing. The team is led offensively by Luke Shadid (.327) and Brendan Dougherty (.325). As a club, the Braves are hitting at a clip of .280 while the pitching staff holds a 6.61 ERA. The Sycamores lead the all-time series that dates back to 1906, 86-61. The last time the two squads met on the diamond was last season in Peoria when

the Trees took two-of-three from Bradley after dropping the series opener, 5-3. Redshirt sophomore Dane Tofteland broke the Indiana State single-game RBI record after driving in 11 runs on a trio of home runs, including two grand slams as the Sycamores took down Northern Illinois, 17-8 Tuesday. The 11 RBI tied the MVC record (John Knott of MSU vs. UNI on May 2, 1992) and is also the highest single-game performance in all of NCAA Division I this season. Senior Tony Rosselli has been one of the strongest contributors to the Sycamore offense this season, leading the team in batting average (.357), slugging percent (.635) and triples (5). Rosselli has 13 multiple hit contests, including one four-hit game and nine multiple RBI games. Sophomore Tyler Ward has put together a nice stat line so far this season. The right-hander boasts a 3-2 record with a 3.04 ERA in eight starts. The Santa Claus, Ind. native has struck out 34 batters while walking just six. He ranks 39th nationally with a 5.67

strikeout-to-walk ratio and 11th nationally with 0.96 walks per nine innings. Indiana State is outscoring the opposition 27-12 in the ninth inning this season and the Trees are a perfect 17-0 when leading after eight innings. When it comes to picking up extra bases, ISU has no problem getting it done. The squad ranks third in the MVC with a .429 slugging percent. As a team, the Sycamores have 64 doubles, 12 triples and 38 home runs on the season. Tony Rosselli leads the Trees with a .635 slugging percentage off of seven doubles, five triples and six home runs. One thing the Sycamores have done well this season on the mound is record strikeouts. As a team, ISU has struck out 323 opposing batters, led by senior right-hander Jeremy McKinney who has 54 K’s in 42 innings. The team ranks 32nd in the country with 9.0 strikeouts per nine innings while McKinney has struck out 11.57 per nine innings, good enough for 33rd nationally. Story by ISU Athletic Media Relations.

In the last nine games, the women’s softball team has gone just 1-8 against their opponents. They had a tough loss on Tuesday earlier this week in a close one against Loyola. With a score 3-2 favoring Loyola, the Sycamores showed they still have urge to fight late in games in hopes for coming out with a win. This coming weekend the team will host close rival Southern Illinois University in a three-game series beginning on Friday. The Salukis are 26-21, 13-7 MVC and have been playing exceptionally well. With a home record of 8-2, they have been backed by senior infielder who also pitches, Shaye Harre. Harre has been leading the way for Salukis with her bat while she is batting a current .316 going into Friday night’s game. With her playing in 47 games and starting in all 47, she has stepped up to be one of the key players on this team. Harre has six home runs on the year with 30 runs batted in. She is leading the team in slugging percentage with .598. Not only is Harre a key player for SIU, but freshman outfielder Susie Baranski has been also a huge help to the team’s success. Baranski has along with Harre played in 47 games and starting in all of those. With Baranski having the most hits on the team with 47, she is the one getting on base and scoring runs for the Salukis. She leads most runs scored and is getting the job done on the small things that make up a good team. Leading the team with RBIs (37) is power hitter senior outfielder Merri Anne Patterson. Patterson, another one of five starters on the team playing most games and started in 47, has been using her power to give the team wins. Patterson

currently has seven home runs, which is most on the team along with her leading in RBIs. She has been considered to be the power source of the Saluki offense. The Salukis currently have six players on the team who are every day players batting between .290 to .316; their offense is giving their pitching the support they need. With the Salukis having a pitching staff that averages a 2.82 ERA, the tremendous run support they have is what makes up their above average team. The Saluki pitching staff has been led by sophomore Brianna Jones. Jones, who is from Tennessee, is leading the staff with a 2.20 ERA and holds a record of 13-11 on the year.
