Food Pantry opens for ISU students MAKYLA THOMPSON Reporter United Campus Ministries created a food pantry for the Indiana State University students who need help getting food. On Nov. 21, United Campus Ministries held an open house for their new food pantry, which is only for the students in the Terre Haute area. Carrie Stone, the office manager at Campus Ministries and a sophomore history major, shared how the idea of having a food pantry came about. “The past couple of years that I worked here a lot of students came in and were hungry,” Stone said. “But one of our former students came up and started doing research, and found out that it wasn’t just here, it was a common situation that students don’t have enough to eat.” To make this food pantry idea come to life they had to take some steps to be able to make it successful. They keep any food that does not need to be put in a refrigerator such as noodles, canned goods and other nonperishable items. “Basically, the campus minister Karen Smith and I just did as much research as we could, we looked at the IUPUI food pantry website, and Oregon State had a big manual how-to guide so we just
followed that,” Stone said. “We just tried to learn as much as we could, because in the beginning just her and I were going to do it no matter what, but it turned out to be bigger than we ever thought.” The food pantry is to help those students on campus who cannot afford to get food. The open house was a success, with students bringing in food and nonperishable food items. “People were in and out,” Stone said. “At least 200 people I would guess, one of the professors came in and brought 30 something of his students. We had a lot of people in the community, a lot of staff from Indiana State, and from the other colleges Harrison and Ivy Tech.” “We don’t have a refrigerator, so we need any food that you can put on a shelf,” Stone said. The food pantry is only for students from colleges in Terre Haute. “It is just going to be for students,” Stone said. “You have to show a valid student ID, but for any of the five colleges that are around town, and if they have family of course we can give them more so that their family can have things too.” Deborah Corbin, a junior who is a health administration and public health major, believes that the food pantry is a great idea for the campus.

“I think it would be a good thing for students who are struggling with getting food, and anyone who is in need can get the help,” Corbin said. Jessica Watson, a freshman nursing major, is excited for the new food pantry and believes it will benefit many students at ISU. “I think this is a good thing for us
students who can’t make it to the store,” Watson said. “We are all broke and it will be helpful to many students.” Stone wants students to come by and get food if they need it and not to be scared to ask for help. “I am just hoping that the students will actually come and get the help that they need,” Stone said.
Affordable Care Act affects Indiana State students JOHNATHON BAKER Reporter It’s fall and along with the seasons changing it’s also open enrollment season for health care. Look to the news and everyone appears to be commenting one way or another about the now one-year-old Affordable Care Act. The intent of this article is not to pick a side on the Affordable Care Act, but to look at what it does in regard to students
enrolled in college. According to healthcare.gov, anyone under 26, whether enrolled in college or not, is still covered under their parents’ health care plan. Once 26 the individual enters a special open enrollment period and either purchases their own insurance or enrolls into a work provided health care plan. For many students, the current system may be fine, but what happens if a student’s parent loses health insurance?
What options do those individuals have? “You would be surprised how many of our undergraduate students do not have health insurance,” said Dr. Joni Clark, Indiana State’s Interim Associate Director for Student Health Promotion. Clark said that ISU does offer health care for its students, and students have different options for payment. “Students can opt for a health insurance plan and either pay the lump sum fee when they get their financial aid, or they
can pay monthly,” Clark said. The UAP Clinic located inside the ISU Health Center also offers care for students. “The UAP Clinic does not turn anyone away that is in serious need of treatment. They will work out a payment arrangement for them,” Clark said. Another option is the new Mollie R. Wheat Memorial Clinic. Located at 1433 N. 6 1/2 St., the student-run clinic ACA CONTINUED ON PAGE 2

ISU strives for sustainable campus environment BETSY SIMON
ISU Communications and Marketing From Trayless Tuesdays to planting school-wide vegetable gardens and offering Indiana State University students the opportunity to donate unwanted goods at the end of each semester, Terre Haute youth have limitless ideas about how to make a sustainable environment. Their ideas were unveiled at the ceremony marking the conclusion of a poster competition that kicked off in October to encourage students in kindergarten through college to embrace sustainable initiatives. The competition was a collaborative effort by the Center for Supply Management Research at the Scott College of Business, Indiana State’s Institute for Community Sustainability, and India Association of Terre Haute. Indiana State’s ranking as one of the top universities in the nation for community service was the motivation behind the winning college-level team’s idea to ask for clothing donation bins for students to use during move-out weeks. “ISU provides dumpsters outside of each residence hall for students to throw away papers, food or clothes as they’re moving out. What we want to do is have those clothes donated,” said ISU student Mikayla Morrison, whose team needed to create a business plan for an idea that would make campus more sustainable.
“
“We’re proposing that ISU provide donation bins for each of the residence halls and Goodwill will pick them up for free. How we evaluated our project was with a triple bottom-line concept, looking at the economic, social and environmental impact of the idea. “Goodwill was chosen because with every donation, 80 to 90 cents is put in the community. There’s an environmental impact as well, as cotton can sit in landfills for five months and leather and nylon can stay there for 40 years,” Morrison said, adding that the goal would be for each student to donate at least one item in the first year and multiply each year. Students were divided into grade level categories and posed a sustainability-related question to answer through a poster presentation. “I learned that our food comes from the grounds, so we shouldn’t litter,” said Lost Creek Elementary first-grader Malachi English, 6, whose grade level was tasked with explaining where food comes from. “It was a great project for him to learn about animals and how food gets to our dinner table,” said English’s mother, Deborah. For JJ Faught, a student at Terre Haute South Vigo High School, the idea of building a vegetable garden has taken on new meaning after he was asked for the project to think about how it would
benefit schools. “There are benefits like getting youth outside, instead of staying inside and using technology,” he said. “It’s a way to change a student’s life, by encouraging responsibility and building motivation.” A panel of judges narrowed the 165plus poster submissions down to the top three winners in each category, who were recognized with plaques handed out by Mayor Duke Bennett. “I think what strikes me the most is that the best chance we have to change the way society is today is with this generation,” Bennett said. “Some older people are a little more stuck in their ways and may not adapt and make the changes that are needed to be made to be more sustainable, but this group of youth, kindergarten all the way to juniors and seniors in college, are our opportunity to really make a difference.” The presentations from the top three winners at each level as well as the business student teams were judged at the event by a panel of three judges — Jeff Harper, executive director of graduate programs for the Scott College of Business; Paul Schikora, chair of the marketing and operations department and Dennis Evers, chief technology officer and inventor at Meridian Biotech. The event was sponsored by the Center for Community Engagement, Vectren Foundation, Lucky Reddy and A+ Printers. After witnessing the ideas Terre Haute youth produced, Kuntal Bhattacharyya, director of the Center for Supply Managent Research and assistant professor of operations and supply chain management, said the future of sustainability efforts in Terre Haute is in good hands.
intended to be.” This issue is of particular importance to Laughlin, not only because of her major, but also because she found herself without health insurance and tried to turn to ISU’s health care plan. “It’s still expensive,” Laughlin said. “When I looked at it, it was around $150 a month, and that’s not something I can afford.” Laughlin said that she shopped the market for health insurance and what she finds are high monthly payments,
high deductibles and a focus on emergency room coverage, making regular doctor visits cost more out-ofpocket. “If I ever need anything, I go to the UAP clinic on campus and pay them out of pocket,” Laughlin said. “It’s cheaper than insurance every month. But I still worry, what if something were to happen?” Laughlin and many other students who find themselves looking for affordable health care and are finding

provides free care to anyone every Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. One of the students, Haleigh Laughlin, a senior health science major who volunteers at the clinic, spoke about her overall feelings on the Affordable Care Act. “I love the concept, I hate how it is structured,” Laughlin said. “There [are] a lot of gaps in the system, and I don’t think it is what it was originally

“I had the opportunity to hear from several of the parents about how much of a blessing it was to work with their children on this project, and that’s what we were looking for,” he said. “It wasn’t about doing something for a grade or getting an extra point. It was about doing something that each one of us — not just the students but also the parents and teachers - believe in and want to make a difference.” the opposite. This raises valid concerns about the overall implementation of the Affordable Care Act. Whether through Federal, State or University action, something still must be done to help students on this campus and every other campus across the country. “We are trying to make sure that as few of our students as possible fall through the health care cracks,” Clark said.

Student board chooses leaders:
changes coming to ISU
Steve Wininger Reporter A new student board in the College of Arts and Sciences will foster better communication between students and leadership within the college. The student board met Dec. 1 to determine their organizational structure, officers and officer needs. College of Arts and Sciences Dean John Murray directed the meeting until the board’s leadership was determined, then the newly elected president took charge. Murray said during the meeting that it’s good to have student input especially when it comes to major decisions that affect everyone within the college. “With student help and student perspective, things could be great,” Murray said. Once the leadership needs were determined and positions filled, Murray said they need to determine the specific mission of the board and what they want to accomplish. Murray said a student board has been something he felt has been needed since he became dean of the college. He said this board is a huge step for the college and has a lot of potential. Murray said that other than the classes he teaches, he has very little contact with students. “I love to have input from the students,” Murray said. Tulsi Vaid, newly elected CAS Student Board President and sophomore majoring in biology on the pre-med track, said it would have been nice if there was enough time before semester’s end to have another board meeting.
“I would like to have the group more established for when we could start off [the] new semester,” Vaid said. “We are getting off to a good start.” Not only are the students on the board there to advise the dean, but they also want to advise and help incoming students. Vaid said that at their next meeting, the date of which has not been determined, members will discuss the board’s mission and goals. Junior chemistry major Carly Nash said she joined the advisory board so she could be more involved with the college. Nash said one of her personal goals is to help get students involved so they can better talk to other students and first-year students about CAS. “Our main purpose is to advise and be a link between students and the dean,” Nash said. The student board can help bring ideas together from students in the different departments of the college, Nash said. The board can also be a link to the other colleges on campus. Cameron Snider, a freshman criminology major said he was shocked when he got an email inviting him to join the advisory board, but was more than happy for the opportunity to serve. “I feel the student board will be beneficial to students and staff. It will also give the dean more insight to student activity and needs,” Snider said. Snider said he hopes the board will help with student engagement within the college and the university. “We all have the same vision to better things here at Indiana State,” Snider said.

Russian laws criminalize LGBT community
After the fall of the Soviet Union in Russia, there was an increase in rights for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender people in the country. Starting in 1993, homosexual relationships were decriminalized, and Columnist in 1997, transgender citizens were allowed to legally change their gender despite the many requirements that include invasive surgery. Recently, however, Russia has been adding more and more laws that restrict the rights of LGBT individuals. The laws cause unnecessary hardship and take away rights from LGBT people.
Kelsey Golden
In June 2013, Russia banned the depiction of “nontraditional sexual relationships” for fear that minors would engage in these types of relationships. Showing support — any at all — for the LGBT community is illegal in Russia, and performers like Lady Gaga and Madonna have been fined for verbally supporting LGBT communities. Being gay is not a choice. Children who are LGBT may feel like they cannot be themselves because of the massive amounts of hate in the country. They see that if they are themselves they will be in danger and not be able to have a fulfilling, safe life or have a family. In addition to the Russian Government restricting rights of LGBT individuals, there has been a large rise in crimes against LGBT people. LGBT pride events are marked with violence against people attending these events.
Police are not doing their job and often are slow or completely fail to protect people. When police do not respond to hate crimes against LGBT individuals, it shows that people can respond violently towards these people and get away with it without punishment. If they get away without punishment, it won’t stop and people will just keep being harmed and left unprotected because of their sexual orientation. In Russia, children can even be removed from their families if their parents are gay. This adds homosexual activity to the list of offenses that includes drug addiction and child abuse. Having a loving same-sex family isn’t damaging to a child and shouldn’t be considered abuse, and certainly children shouldn’t be forced out of their home because of it. A loving home is good for children
regardless of their family structure. Children raised by nontraditional families do just as well as children in a nuclear family. Removing them from the home will just cause the children unjust and unnecessary hardship and pain. Russia has harsh restrictions on LGBT citizens for no reason. Many organizations have called Russia out on their policies. Their anti-gay policies take away the rights of individuals and harm families. There should be more international pressure on Russia to help stop their hate so LGBT individuals can have the same rights as everyone else. If the international community reacts in a way that would put pressure on Russia they would be more likely to change their policies and give equal rights to all.
New ‘Assassin’s Creed’ game an unfinished mess
T.C. Wampler Columnist
I waited months and stood in line for hours waiting for the new “Assassin’s Creed” video game to come out and when it finally did, I jumped for joy, like a kid at Christmas. When I got home I installed the massive 49.6 GB game on my newly built PC ready to play this game on ultra-
setting. Yet, once it was installed I was met with wonder and amazement at how glitchy it was. I could not believe they catfished me like that. I understand that some games have some issues when they come out due to server errors but this was terrible. Other players have reported similar issues, namely problems with parts of characters not loading or frame rate dropping out of nowhere. Ubisoft has since released a number of patches for
the game and has even offered those who purchased the game another game for free as an apology, but it’s still a disappointment for me. If you have to patch your game on the release day, is it even worth selling? As I sat in my own fury for a few days, I started searching for an answer to this; only to meet the same conclusion I had already: it’s all about money. Ubisoft learned if they were to miss the November launch, sales would drop off the deep end.

Mind your media: newsfeeds stifle relationships
We have allowed our lives to be dictated by 140 characters. As loyal users we have given social media the power to influence and limit our relationships, social communication and moral dignity. Who doesn’t feel empowered by a “Woman-Crush Wednesday?” Columnist I could think of an endless list of more flattering compliments that don’t require a social media application and one out of seven days to be accomplished. While the motivation to do so is charming, pick up the phone and tell me you’re particularly fond of me that day. Scrolling through your newsfeed doesn’t build quite the same aura of romance. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and even Snapchat are all used daily by millions and have become interwoven within our culture and society. Through them we have attempted to connect and form relationships with others by a trending hashtag or catchy retweet. The only problem is that you never
truly know a person until you hold a genuine, face-to-face conversation with them and are able to connect on multiple levels including interests, pet-peeves, goals and fears. While you may think that typing all of these things is just as efficient, consider how your childhood would’ve been if your parents wrote a book to guide you through adolescence. How would you learn to read it? There are too many crevices of communication that need to be discovered through basic, audible dialogue. Successful relationships thrive on healthy communication. Without efficient interaction and witty banter a relationship lacks depth and substance. It is easy to hide behind a keyboard and speak with those you may normally not be willing or confident enough to approach in a public setting. However, this also creates a false sense of identification both internally as well as externally. We have given social media the power to create a version of ourselves that may or may not accurately reflect our personalities and ideals. This deceiving layer of our most treasured applications is what many
choose to ignore. We would rather rant about the woes of our day online than pick up the phone and vent to a friend or meet them in person for advice. Although it sounds like I am antisocial media, I read the sappy “#MCM” and laugh at every “Selfie Sunday.” I may be guilty of posting a few as well. While I find entertainment in each and every one, I also believe that relying on social media as a “friend” and using it to express our feelings and personal problems goes well beyond its intended use. We choose to share these photos and satirical life stories on newsfeeds, wanting attention from those willing to listen and weigh in on our emotions. But, we are also the first to get offended when advice is given. This major contradiction creates a breeding ground for dramatic nonsense — the signature tagline that should be given to all of these sites. It amazes me more and more every day when I hear of someone watching their significant other’s followers and instigating an argument based upon the premise of whose pictures they liked within the last hour.

people truly enjoy. Our want for the latest game, movie, phone or car keeps sales for companies growing. The gaming industry is not the only one that acts this way. The car industry is dealing with millions of possible recalls on airbags because of our insatiable want for new things. We vote with our dollars and we have to support the companies that take care of us and not buy from those that do not. This is a little easier said than done. These companies hold something that we want and we usually want it now. This puts us between a rock and hard place because the latest and greatest is better
than what we have but how do we know it is good? We have to be tactful about how we spend our money these days because everything is interconnected. One of my favorite theories in economics is the “too big to fail” theory. This theory states that a company can grow so large that it cannot be allowed to fail because that failure would be felt throughout the economy. When big business thinks they can get away with producing terrible products I would be OK letting them fail. That is capitalism after all; if they want my The new ‘Assassin’s Creed’ game was money, produce something worth released on Nov. 11 and is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. paying for.

they chose to release an unfinished product. In most cases, their profit is much higher releasing an unfinished product and harming a small percent than waiting and losing big. Ubisoft’s other big hit title “Watchdogs” was delayed because it was not finished. It was reported to have sold four million units in its first week and “Assassin’s Creed 4” distributed more than three times that.

and constantly badgering it with accusations creates a toxic relationship. With so much of our lives becoming centralized around technology, relationships are easily ruined on the basis of assumptions. It’s not to say that a relationship cannot succeed without the presence of social media. The monster merely necessitates proper usage. Emotions are often lost in translation and left up to interpretation. Social media acts in a similar way, offering the option to post, quote or screenshot a brief moment in time and carrying on that instantaneous drama. In order to effectively grow as a couple, it’s important to not bring the socially psychotic world into your private one. Keep the two separate and if a problem arises, converse before you tweet. The Internet is a foundation for growth and innovation. However, the growth is often overshadowed by drama and relationships take much of the backlash. It’s important that as a friend and significant other, we properly communicate and work to overcome any issues that arise. Luckily for us, face-to-face conversations don’t have word limits and we get to bring our own personal emojis.

Certificate set to make Sycamores career-ready Mariah Lee Reporter The Indiana State University Career Center has started offering a new program called the Sycamore Career Ready Certificate. The goal of the Sycamore Career Ready Certificate is to enhance ISU students’ preparation for professional work. This certificate will provide employers insight into the students’ level of preparation and professionalism. Darby Scism, Executive Director of the Career Center, said that although ISU students were competent in their fields, they lack to the ability to communicate their skills and the ability to be interviewed professionally and persuasively. “We created the Career Ready Certificate last year and it’s been in for about a year. It was made in response to the employers and recruiters from different companies that were saying that ISU graduates needed to be better prepared for internships and job searches,” Scism
said. Matt Hetzell, Assistant Director of the Career Center, wants to help ISU students succeed. “The activities that we have the students do support our mission to make students more competitive in the job market,” Hetzell said. The Sycamore Ready Career Certificate will go on the student’s resume and the student’s co-curricular transcripts that both employers and graduate schools will see. Scism says that students should really start two years before they graduate to be career-ready. She hopes that because students can put the Career Ready Certificate on the resume it would convince students to participate. Students who complete the Career Certificate will also receive completion benefits. Students who complete the Sycamore Career Ready Certificate will get a leather portfolio and a business card case. Each semester the students who complete the Career Ready Certificate
will be put in a raffle drawing and the winner will get $500 in clothing. Another completion benefit is that students can also waive one of their Foundational Studies Category 2 upper division integrative electives. Students who want the Sycamore Career Ready Certificate will need to complete all the activities on the certificate checklist. The checklist includes professional identity activities, professional skills and self-marketing activities and completing 200 hours of professional experience. “They have to go to a career fair, attend three workshops and they have to do 200 hours of professional work,” Scism said. Of the 200 professional work hours, 100 can be student employment. “Other hours need to be in an internship, a practicum, a clinical placement, student teaching, something that is directly related to their career goals.” It is recommended that students register for the program by the end of their sophomore year because it takes most participants about a year and a half
to two years to complete the program. It can be completed in a shorter time and it’s even possible for the certificate to be completed in a semester if a student was really motivated. “It looks really long but when students look at the checklist they will realize they’ve already had to do lot of these things for classes,” Scism said. Each participant will be assigned a career advisor to monitor progress and advise him or her concerning career development and program requirements. Hetzell says that he hopes that the Career Certificate will make ISU graduates more competitive than graduates from other universities. “I would like to see a very large number of students complete this,” Scism said. To register for the Sycamore Career Ready Certificate Program, please complete the registration online. “We can’t guarantee students a job but we do hope that they would be in a better place than their peers and their peers from other universities,” Scism said.
In order to give participants a truerto-life experience, agencies were scattered around the third floor of Hulman Memorial Student Union and were only “open” on intervals. In such cases, focusing on a different agency while awaiting the opening of another agency was nearly impossible, due to many agencies pre-requiring each other. This creates a step-ladder effect, and the inconvenience it causes to some in the real world (where agencies can be miles away from each other) can be minor or devastating depending on one’s severity of need. What makes it difficult for these agencies to coordinate? Rhonda Impink, an associate professor in the Department of Social Work, clarifies that problem on a bureaucratic level. “[These] organizations are state, federal and local governmental organizations as well as non-profit organizations. They are trying to serve the public, but that assistance is limited to their legislative mandates and funding levels—except for the township
trustees who have almost no oversight— for governmental organizations as well as funding and administrative limitations for nonprofit organizations. Thus the service delivery system is not coordinated and does not work well together and this causes people who are having difficulty supporting themselves to have to work very hard in order to survive.” There was also a tucked-away grocery store where participant role-players could purchase food. However, the types and amounts of food were restricted depending on which programs one was on. Social work students are able to do 450 hours of internship in a local agency. In addition to that, the Poverty in America simulation has also been instrumental in preparing students for the scenarios they will face in their field of work. Both Holmes and Archer agreed that, beyond problems with the availability and distribution of services in the area, there are also problems in our society. Holmes said, “We need to treat everyone
with compassion, dignity, respect, and understanding. Instead of judging, why not help? Seems a lot easier. Anyone can end up in that situation.” The documentary Poverty in America, for which the simulation was named, played on a loop in a separate room, allowing participants to view it while waiting for agencies to reopen. However, while some were given the opportunity to experience poverty through a character or camera lens, some participants were all too familiar with their roles. “The reality of poverty in America,” said Archer-Walls, “is this: one in five children lives in poverty. In 2010, fifteen percent of families live in poverty. The reality is that we’re sending kids to school, two meals a day. We send them on break—they’re not getting any food. There are parents that are working their butts off to have a roof over their heads, and even that’s not even enough.” The Poverty in America video can be viewed online at www.povertyusa.org/ the-state-of-poverty/poverty-usa-tour.
Poverty simulation challenges views on public assistance
Kristin Kilker
ISU Communications and Marketing On Nov. 13, the Department of Social Work invited the public up to the third floor of the Hulman Memorial Student Union for a simulation of poverty. However, instead of showcasing the efficiency of Terre Haute Agencies, they sought to highlight the obstacles faced by those in poverty in order to challenge participants’ perceptions of those on assistance. The event, which was free to the public with an optional donation of a non-perishable food item. In lieu of a presentation, participants were given a scenario that would require them to visit various agencies in order to seek aid. At these agencies, students role-played as employees of Planned Parenthood, Bureau of Motor Vehicles and other reallife agencies. Participants were referred to agencies by a social work specialist at a primary table, and received a sticker for each table visited.

ISU students venture to India for cultural experience
Betsy Simon
ISU Communications and Marketing The road to learning about arts-based approaches to counseling will take a group of graduate students in Indiana State University’s counseling programs to India for a two-week cross-cultural experience this month. Catherine Tucker, associate professor and clinical mental health counseling program coordinator at Indiana State, and eight graduate students, will present at the International Seminar on Art and Expressive Therapies for Trauma: India and U.S. Perspectives, Dec. 18-19 in Mumbai, India. The conference is cosponsored by Indiana State and Nagindas Khandwala College in India. “The hosting professor [Vinay Prabhu] at NK College and I created [the conference] as a vehicle to bring together Indian- and U.S.-based expressive arts therapists and students,” she said. “As far as I can discover, it’s the first event of its type in India.” Indiana State’s students will present research on expressive arts for trauma
in the U.S. and learn about the Indian perspective on arts-based therapy on the first day of the conference. Tucker, who is a registered play therapy supervisor, will deliver the conference’s keynote address. She will conduct a play therapy workshop on the following day. The trip, Dec. 9 to 23, will give students an opportunity to share recent neuroscience discoveries about how people process trauma and why creative arts are a good tool for recovery with their Indian counterparts. It is also afford students a chance to network internationally with others in their field and see firsthand how therapy is delivered in India when they tour a mental health facility. To prepare for the travel portion of the course, ISU students are learning about Indian systems of belief and healing, Indian culture, and Indian history. “I try to offer a study abroad course every other year. Our master’s in counseling programs take two years to complete, so that gives all of the students a chance to go somewhere,” Tucker said. “I’m currently talking to colleagues in Nepal, The Dominican Republic, and
Jordan about possible future trips. India is our destination this year because we happen to have a student from there with excellent connections who could facilitate the project for us.” As the only India native going on the trip, Ritika Latke, a second-year graduate student in the clinical and mental health counseling program from Mumbai, said the trip will provide her a chance to look at her culture from a different perspective. “I’ve come to learn that people have weird perspectives about India and some are hard to hear about, but hopefully students will come into the experience with an open mind because what they take away from the trip is up to them,” she said. Jessica Flynn, a Terre Haute native and second-year graduate student in the school counseling program, said she is interested in how art therapy is practiced in India and is excited to attend a dance therapy workshop while on her first trip abroad. “It’s a different perspective on counseling than we get in the U.S. and this will give us a multicultural view of how art
therapy is practiced in another part of the world,” she said. Since counselors encounter people from all over the world, Tucker said she uses trips abroad to help prepare students to work effectively with, to understand and help a wide variety of people. “In order to do this, they need to encounter a variety of people, and the best way to do this is to travel, to experience being an outsider and an ‘other,’” she said. Students will also have a chance to see the Taj Mahal, go on a tiger safari and visit the Elephanta Caves during their two-week trip to the world’s second most populous country. “Having studied abroad before, I know how good international experiences are for students and how cool it is to experience a new culture and learn their approach to things,” said Courtney Hull, a first-year graduate student in the clinical mental health counseling program. “Being able to present at the conference is an important piece of the trip for me, too, because I would like to apply for doctoral programs when I finish my master’s degree, so this will be a good experience for me.”

From stooges to studs: ISU football is back Alex Modesitt Editor-in-Chief In the not-so-distant past, the Indiana State University football program was a black hole, void of any semblance of talent. They struggled to not only get themselves into playoff contention coming out of the murderer’s row that is the Missouri Valley Football Conference, but in some seasons, into the win column. How dark was the cellar they were in? In the 2005-2009 seasons, Indiana State mustered an abysmal 2-54 record, stringing 30 of those losses together for an unprecedented run of futility. For those of you wondering, yes, that is a winning percentage of 3.7 percent. That’s not your typical “creepy basement” dark, that’s “John Wayne Gacy’s crawl space” dark. The program showed flashes of competency in the 2010 and 2012 seasons, but floundered their chances down the stretch, finishing below .500 in the month of November both seasons. Then last year’s debacle of a season happened. A new head coach, a diva running back who refused to buy into the system — looking at you, Shakir Bell — and a defense
that gave up 36 points per game led to a 1-11 season and cast a large, dark cloud of pessimism heading into this season. The first game for the 2014 Sycamore football team made it look like they were headed for another rough season. The defense couldn’t get off the field, yielding 468 rushing yards, 248 of those yards to Heisman hopeful Tevin Coleman, and 28 points. Not a promising start. The next week, Indiana State exacted a measure of revenge on Tennessee Tech, putting a 49-14 walloping on the Golden Eagles and avenged a gut-wrenching 1-point loss to Tech the year before. Then came The Battle for the Bell at Ball State. Indiana State posted a 27-20 victory over the Cardinals, their first since 1987. It was more than just a seven-point victory for the Sycamores; it was a coming-out party, a glimmer of hope for a program that has achieved scant success in the past couple of decades. Indiana State’s next five games came against Top 25 foes. The Sycamores defeated Liberty, Northern Iowa and Southern Illinois, while losing to then No. 1 North Dakota State and
Illinois State. Then came November, a month that has been less than friendly to the Sycamores over the past 10 years. In November games since the 2005-2006 season, Indiana State has posted a paltry 5-24 record. Not many of them were close either, like the 2007 loss at Northern Iowa, which resulted in one of the most lopsided losses in Missouri Valley Football Conference history, 68-14. With a spot in the playoffs on the line, Indiana State opened November strong with a win over Missouri State, but followed that up with a loss to South Dakota State that had many fearing that the November curse would strike again. That wouldn’t happen however, as the Sycamores showed the grit and heart that has come to characterize this season. They split their last two games of the season, one of which was an overtime win at Youngstown State, and wound up earning a playoff berth for the first time since 1984. ISU football had finally broken into the playoffs, but faced a tough opening round match up against Eastern Kentucky. In the early goings, it appeared as if the
Sycamores were going to get their doors blown off by a team that is used to the pressurepacked stage of the FCS playoffs, falling behind 16-0. Indiana State football didn’t go quietly into the night, however, and rattled off 36 straight points to stun the Colonels and advance to the second round of the playoffs. The win also gave the Sycamores their first winning record in the month of November since the 2002-2003 season. That game summed up the entire 2014 season in one nice, neat package. A poor start, followed by a stout defensive performance and a passing game that continues to keep opposing defensive coordinators awake at night. Indiana State will face Chattanooga on Saturday, their first game in the month of December since squaring off against Southern Illinois on Dec. 3, 1983. Regardless of the outcome, this year’s team will go down in the history books as one of the finest squads in Indiana State history. Fans will remember the signature wins against Ball State and Eastern Kentucky, but it will be this team’s fight and determination that will be remembered for years to come.
College basketball heats up with Top 10 matchups
Zach Rainey Reporter No. 4 Duke vs. No. 2 Wisconsin Dec. 3 The impressive collection of Duke Freshmen will face its biggest test Wednesday against the Wisconsin Badgers. It will also be the first true away game the Blue Devils have played this season. I think it will be interesting to see how Jahlil Okafor will react to a rowdy Wisconsin crowd. Okafor has been one of the best players in college basketball this year. He has been drawing comparisons to Tim Duncan with his complete understanding and execution of the fundamentals. He isn’t very flashy but he is an efficient scorer and rebounder. I think the key in this game for the Blue Devils will be how well senior point guard Quinn Cook can keep him from paying too much attention to the crowd and keep his team in the game. Cook will play a big leadership role in this game and every big game the rest of the year. I think Duke has the most talent in the country, but we’ve seen teams with lots of talent lose games against older and more disciplined teams, especially on the road. Frank Kaminsky has truly stepped up for his team this year, averaging 16 points per game with nine rebounds. I’m guessing Kaminsky will be matched up against Okafor. It
would be a great game watching those two to go at it on the block the whole night. Last season, Wisconsin was a three-pointer away from going to the National Championship game and by the way they’ve been playing this season, they want to go back. If Wisconsin wins this game, it gives them an incredible amount of confidence going forward. The Big Ten is a little depleted this year as Michigan State lost Gary Harris and Adreian Payne and Ohio State is without Aaron Craft. The Big Ten schedule will still be rigorous, but nothing Wisconsin can’t handle. No. 6 Texas vs. No. 1 Kentucky Dec. 5 Texas is coming off a win at the buzzer against the UCONN Huskies. Last year Texas limped its way into the tournament and if not for a win against Kansas, I’m not sure they would have made it at all. Texas was able to get a win on a buzzer shot against Arizona State in the tournament before getting knocked out by Michigan in the next round. Texas had its core group of players return for this year’s campaign. Jonathan Holmes is a returning senior forward averaging 13 points per game and seven rebounds per game. Holmes also hit the game winning three-pointer to defeat UCONN at the buzzer. While I think Texas is a great team and I do think they will
make the tournament, I don’t think they have what it takes to defeat Kentucky on the road. While I think Duke is the most talented team in college basketball, I think Kentucky is the best team in college basketball. The dynamic duo of the Harrison twins opted to return for their sophomore season and athletic big man Willie CauleyStine, who was hurt and not able to play in the National Championship, opted to return for his junior season. Kentucky just has so much depth that it’s impossible to stop everybody. Last season we saw Marcus Lee go from an unknown to a player who probably could’ve been drafted in the second round of the draft based off of what he did in just the tournament. Odds are sometime this season we will see the emergence of another player from this deep Kentucky roster. I’ve always liked Alex Poythress. I think he’s great at perimeter defense and is a lot more athletic than people give him credit for. With the competition for playing time the past few seasons, Poythress had limited time behind some of the highly recruited freshman Kentucky always gets. I think Kentucky will run away with this one and that the duo of the Harrison twins will prove to be too much for Texas along with the inside presence of Cauley-Stine and the athleticism of Poythress.

Championship hopefuls to tackle rivals
Jeremy Beaver Reporter Big Ten Championship: No. 6 Ohio State Buckeyes vs. No. 14 Wisconsin Badgers Wisconsin had a rough start to their season when they lost their first game to the LSU Tigers 28-24. The Badgers’ second loss would come in week five against Big Ten rival Northwestern Wildcats. Wisconsin has had a clean slate when it comes to injuries this season and they hope to keep that going this week as they prepare for the championship. The Badgers are coming off of a 34-24 win to No. 18 Minnesota where Wisconsin quarterback Joel Stave threw for 218 yards and two touchdowns. Probably one of the most hated colleges in college football, “The” Ohio State Buckeyes have no doubt had an amazing season and it will all be tested this Saturday in the Big Ten Championship at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. On the contrary, the Buckeyes have had a rockier season than their 11-1 record shows. The Buckeyes lost their
W ar the
second game of the season to Virginia Tech 35-21. Building up frustration, Ohio State would come out firing, scoring a combined 224 points in their next four games. Ohio State’s next challenge hit them when conference rival Penn State took the Buckeyes into two overtimes. Thankfully for the big O-H-I-O, Penn State quarterback Christian Hackenberg was sacked on 4th down in their attempt to try and tie the game up and stay in the ball game so the Buckeyes would slip by with the win. Ohio State would remain undefeated in the Big Ten the rest of the season. News for Ohio State just got worse when senior quarterback JT Barrett was carted off the field in the game against Michigan this past weekend with a broken right leg and will be out for the season. Ohio State has this week to figure out who will take on the important role of starting quarterback in place of Barrett for the championship game. Whether the Buckeyes had a great season or not, it will be put behind them so they can focus on winning the game

against Wisconsin for one man – Kosta Karageorge. Karageorge was a defensive lineman for the Buckeyes who went missing this past week and was found dead in a dumpster to what authorities are calling it – suicide by gunshot due to excessive concussions. The Buckeyes have had an emotional week with the injury of Barrett and the loss of Karageorge but only the game will tell if the Buckeyes will let their emotions affect their gameplay. Prediction: Ohio State Buckeyes 24, Wisconsin Badgers 31; With JT Barrett being out with a leg injury, the Buckeyes are going to take a huge hit. However, going into the game after an emotional week, the Buckeyes will still put up a fight against the Badgers. PAC-12 Championship: No. 2 Oregon Ducks vs. No. 11 Arizona Wildcats Oregon is coming off a dominating win in the Civil War game against the Oregon State Beavers 47-19. This win marked Oregon’s seventh win in a row against the Beavers. Ducks quarterback Marcus Mariota threw for an astounding 367 yards, four touchdowns and also had
the only two rushing touchdowns of the game. Receivers Byron Marshall and Royce Freeman both caught a pass for a touchdown while receiver Charles Nelson caught two passes for a touchdown. Winning the conference championship game against the Wildcats would show that not only do they deserve to be in the Top 4 but that they deserve to be in contention for the National Championship. Arizona is simply thinking that if they can do it once, they can do it again. In week five, Arizona defeated Oregon 31-24. Arizona quarterback threw for 287 yards, one touchdown and one interception against the Ducks. Running back Terris Jones-Grigsby led the rushing category with 27 carries for 117 yards and a touchdown. Running back Nick Wilson also had 13 carries for 92 yards and two touchdowns. Wilson also had one completion for 34 yards and a touchdown. The Ducks will take on the Wildcats at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California this Saturday. Prediction: Oregon Ducks 24, Arizona Wildcats 31.

He added two total tackles on the year on special teams. Indiana State carries its 8-5 record into the second round of the NCAA FCS Playoffs when they travel to No. 8 Chattanooga on Saturday, Dec. 6. The first-ever December game in the history of the program is scheduled for a 1:04 p.m. kickoff in Chattanooga and will be televised nationally on ESPN3. The winner of the Indiana State/Chattanooga game will face the winner of Fordham and No. 1 New Hamphsire on either Dec. 12 or 13.
Mascari races to eighth place at Nationals
Kevin Jenison ISU Athletic Media Relations
The race for the men’s NCAA Championship was one unlike any that have run before on the LaVern Gibson Championship Cross-Country with the lead pack made up of nearly half the field remaining bunched together through the first half of the race. The field began to string out after 5,000 meters but it wasn’t until the final 2,000 that the action became fast and furious. That is the point that Indiana State junior John Mascari began to make his move to the front, moving from 22 to about 14 before the 7K mark. “I saw Coach [John] McNichols and knew it was time to just lay it all on the line,” Mascari said. The Sycamore closed strong in the final 1,000 meters and ended up eighth with a time of 30:31.3. That is the best finish by a Sycamore and earned
the Indiana State junior his second All-American recognition. “What a tremendous young man he is,” said John McNichols, Indiana State men’s cross-country coach. “I have never seen a race like that before in the 11 years we have hosted the event. It seemed more of by design of the front runners. It did make for a dramatic race.” Although the pack thinned with 2,000 meters to go, it was not until the final 1,000 meters that the winner was determined with Oregon sophomore Edward Cheserek defending his 2013 championship with a winning time of 30:19.4. Cheserek’s teammate, senior Eric Jenkins, was second in 30:23.2 with Northern Arizona junior Fusum Zienasellassie third at 30:25.3. The next seven were separated by just three seconds. Stanford’s Maksim Korolev, who finished third a year ago for Harvard, was fourth this year with Colorado’s Ammar Moussa fifth, Arkansas’ Stanley Kebenei
sixth, Colorado’s Ben Saarel seventh, Mascari eighth, Colorado’s Blake Theroux ninth and Wisconsin’s Malachy Schrobilgen 10th. Colorado successfully defended their team title, placing three in the top 10 and four in the top 20 to retain the title with 65 points. Stanford was second with 98 with Portland third with 175. The women’s 6,000-meter race was much different than the men with Iona junior Kate Avery taking the lead early and never looking back to win with 19:31.6. Sarah Disanza of Wisconsin was second and Emma Bates of Boise State third. Michigan State, who spent much of the season as the No. 1 team in the rankings, proved that they deserved that recognition, placing two in the top 10 and four in the top 20 to win the school’s first-ever championship with 85 points. Iowa State was second with 147 and New Mexico third with 188.
