Sycamores smash
Indiana State football dominates visiting Golden Eagles Saturday in home opener ROB LAFARY Sports Editor Indiana State put its foot on the gas pedal early and never let up until the end as the Sycamores downed Tennessee Tech 49-14 in Saturday’s home opener at Memorial Stadium. The win snapped a 10-game losing streak for the Sycamores, dating back to Sept. 14, 2013 when Indiana State defeated Quincy 70-7 in last season’s home opener. “They deserve this and I’m excited for them,” Indiana State Head Coach Mike Sanford said of the team following the win. “There were a lot of exciting things that happened today.” Perhaps the most excitement came from the final plays of the first quarter that allowed Indiana State to score for the first time on the day and provide much-needed momentum the rest of the game. With time winding down, the Sycamores threatened on Tennessee Tech’s 34-yard line but three unsportsmanlike conduct penalties on the same play put the blue and white in a firstand-55 situation back at their own 22-yard line. But the gigantic task of converting seemed easy enough for the Indiana State offense. After a short pass from Mike Perish to Sam Levingston, Perish found Gary Owens who sprinted into Golden Eagle territory but fell just short of

the goal line. However, just as the horn sounded to end the stanza, LeMonte Booker would push himself into the end zone for the home team’s first score and Eric Heidorn’s extra point made it 7-0 after one. “Other than fifth grade football … that was a first and 65,” Perish said, on being part of the first-and-55 situation. “But that’s fifth grade football. I’ve never been a part of anything quite like that here.” The long-scoring drive sparked the offense as ISU scored twice in the second quarter and opened up the second half with a score. Perish’s quarterback sneak from one yard out put Indiana State up 14-0 and his first touchdown pass of the day, a six-yard strike to Jamar Brown put the Sycamores up 21-0 at halftime. Booker opened up the second half with a 37-yard run with 11:30 left in the third quarter, resulting in his second rushing touchdown of the day and the Sycamores taking a commanding 28-0 lead. Tennessee Tech capitalized following ISU’s fourth score of the day after the Sycamores’ special teams group hiccupped twice in the third frame. Pinned into his own end zone with 7:54 left, junior punter Osborn Umeh’s delayed timing on his punt and allowed Tech’s Jordan Patrick to swat the ball out of

Alcohol a growing problem
KRISTI ASHBY News Editor
Indiana State Excise Police arrested 22 people in Terre Haute last weekend. Eleven minors were arrested for illegal possession or consumption of alcohol. Four adults were arrested for giving alcohol to a minor, and a juvenile was also given a ticket for possession of tobacco. Indiana State Excise police are warning college students that they are watching and cracking down on law violations. As Indiana State University students return to campus, police officers do what they can to promote safety when it comes to alcohol. Excise officers are very focused on violations of Indiana’s “alcoholic beverage code.” Officers are focusing on underage possession and consumption of alcohol. Excise officers are also cracking down on those providing alcohol to minors and the use of fake IDs to obtain alcohol.

New opportunities available through study abroad program at ISU Kristi Ashby Reporter Indiana State University is offering a new program that will allow students to go farther in their global travels around the world. Studying abroad is a learning experience that takes place in another country where Sycamores earn credits towards their ISU degree. Studying abroad can also include internships in their chosen country, fieldwork and different types of experiential learning offered as part of the program. Christine Strong, the director for study abroad, is excited about the opportunities this new program will give students. “ISA is the new program we are using at Indiana State,” Strong said. “It will offer more locations than previously offered and it will also be more cost-efficient for students wanting to study abroad.” The new program will offer new cities and countries students haven’t been allowed to visit before. Indiana State’s previous study abroad program was called Global Links. Indiana State students will travel, meet new people and see many things they
have never before experienced when they study abroad. When Sycamores study abroad they are learning both in as well as outside the classroom. As an ISU student’s can study abroad after completing at least 24 credit hours — two full-time semesters. The student’s success abroad depends on their readiness both financially and emotionally as well as how they want the credits earned to apply to their degree. Chris McGrew, the director for center for global engagement, hopes to have more students enroll in the study abroad programs offered at Indiana State. “We currently have 24 students abroad this fall semester,” McGrew said. Many ISU students choose to study abroad as early as the summer following their freshman year, though many go in the first or second semester of the sophomore year. Students can combine coursework in general education along with some introductory courses in their major or minor. Advisors are available to assist in making sure students have met the prerequisites for courses and also ensure that classes they plan on taking abroad
will transfer to their degree. Many students are excited by the new possibilities that this new program can offer them. Alec Lyons, a junior exercise science major, said she thinks this new program is awesome because it allows students the opportunity to go different places around the world. “I think students should take advantage of this new program,” Lyons said. “I would
love to go somewhere but unfortunately I have different obligations. I would love to see more of the world and I think other[s] do as well.” An ISA representative will be in attendance at the study abroad fair to talk to students and explain the new program available at Indiana State University. The study abroad fair will take place on Wednesday in Dede I between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Reasons against gay marriage ridiculous Last week, a federal appeals court in Chicago deemed that Indiana’s ban on same-sex marriage was “implausible.” The stay is still in effect, meaning no more same-sex marriage couples can get married at this moment, but this is just the first step. We’ve all heard the arguments against sameOpinions sex marriage, most of them Editor being religious or otherwise ridiculous. But one state, Louisiana, is allowed to uphold their ban on same-sex marriage. This is first state to be told that their ban is constitutional. The reason Judge Martin Feldman, a federal judge in Louisiana, declared in the state’s favor was their interest “in linking children to an intact family formed by their two biological parents,” according to an article in the New York Times. This particular reason to ban same-sex marriage has always been a little funny to me. If your only interest in marriage is keeping kids with their own parents, then what about people who are sterile, too old to have kids or those who simply don’t want to have kids? Are they still allowed to marry? And after this nuclear family argument, it inevitably comes up that apparently gay people can’t raise kids. Supposedly, having two people of the same gender in a committed relationship as parents is harmful to the child because they aren’t exposed to the opposite gender. But what about single parents? Aren’t they just one gender of parent? And dealing with a divorce after having a child is incredibly stressful and harmful to the child. I
Kylie Adkins
think having two parents in a committed relationship is better than one, no matter the gender. If we made it easier for same-sex couples to adopt children, all that it would mean is that some children may not be put in the horror of the foster system. Judge Feldman went on to write “Must the states permit or recognize a marriage between an aunt and niece? Aunt and nephew? Brother/brother? Father and child?” I am so sick of hearing this particular argument, because there really is no basis to believe this. I don’t know how the thought of a union between two unrelated gay people leads to discussion of interfamily marriage or to bestiality; I just don’t understand that leap. While not used in this particular instance, a biblical argument often makes an appearance, which is again invalid, because religion isn’t a constant across this country. We have always taken pride in that fact. Since we are not all of the same religion, you can’t pass laws based off of one religion. That becomes favoring a particular religion, and kind of breaks down the separation of church and state. Diversity is one of our greatest characteristics as a country, but we have always reacted with fear to those who make us diverse. We need to stop lashing out and start letting people in. We have to be accepting now. It’s time to stop putting people down for who they are. We are better than this. If you don’t like gay marriage, don’t have a gay marriage. Other than that, it doesn’t involve you, and you shouldn’t be sticking your nose into While an appeals court has struck down Indiana’s same-sex marriage ban, a someone else’s bedroom. federal judge is allowing Louisiana to uphold its ban (Submitted photo).

Students struggle to find motivation in the classroom and beyond There it is. That feeling of dread and misery you feel as soon as you walk into the class that you don’t really enjoy, the class you can’t understand why you have to take it. So you go through the class struggling to stay awake. You don’t understand how it’s related to your major. All you want is to pass it Columnist so you can move on. But there’s a very obvious difference between just passing a class to be done with it and actually learning the material. Passing a class is awesome and you deserve a hot fudge sundae for every one you survive. There were papers to write, assignments to do and hours of reading. There was even that pesky final.
Zachery Davis
Learning the material is not only required to pass the class, but it is almost guaranteed to be useful in your major. The people who designed the course path for a major know what they are doing and want to prepare each student for a career in that field. Nobody wants to work with someone who never took an important class and does not know how to do the task assigned. In high school, teachers would always tell us that we will use what we learn there throughout our life. That is true for some things more than others. My math teacher explained to us that there is no absolute need for what she was teaching us, but if we learn it we could do it ourselves instead of paying someone else to do it for us. That is exactly what employers are looking for. The career center at Foothill College tells us that in order to get a good job you must first have the necessary skills
and still have more to offer the employer. The fact of the matter is no employer wants to pay a third party to do something when one of their employees could do the job. By increasing your knowledge base you are directly increasing your appeal to employers. A degree without a job is useless and becomes just a random piece of paper hanging on the wall. If increasing your chances to land a job is not enough motivation to do well in a class, then think about how much that class costs. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, the average college tuition for fouryear institutions was about $23,000 in 2012. Tuition is used to pay for many things, including the instructors at the institute and resources these instructors provide. By signing up for a class you are essentially paying your professor to teach you — one of those rare times where you can legally pay someone to better ensure
you get a job. Then there is time. Nobody likes wasted time and a school will not require a class as part of a curriculum unless it is absolutely necessary. After all, the school has to pay the people who instruct those courses. Beyond the school not wasting your time, most instructors will not waste your time either. Besides, a good professor would have more important things to do with their time than blabbing useless, unnecessary information to a bunch of students. There are books to write, research to do and a new edition of their favorite journal to read. So no matter what class it is that you are struggling with — your foundational math, private lesson or that one class everyone dreads — there is always motivation to do well in the class and learn from it. What you learn here will help prepare you for that future job.
Battle of the Valve: Gamers fight the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission Australia has a long history of displaying its contempt for video gaming culture. Starting with its outright banning of most video games rated T for teen and M for mature to outright demanding games be edited to the point that they’re barely recognizable, the Australian government has a stick up its collective when it comes to Columnist backside how the rest of the world plays its games. This time they have gone to attacking game developer Valve, through a lawsuit over a policy. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission – ACCC for short – is suing Valve over their No Refund policy. The ACCC has a consumer law applying to
Jake Porter
any business providing goods and services to Australia that demands said business allow its consumers a refund for a faulty product. This was likely originally created to deal with such things as getting a broken CD from Amazon or something along that nature. This has been applied to video games before in which citizens of Australia were given refunds for games that did not perform as advertised, hence being classified as faulty. In regard to Valve, the issue is that most of Valve’s products are digital; such as anything they sell in their online gaming platform and storefront, Steam. The problem with this is that the faulty games that law covered were physical copies, and since most purchases with Valve are digital, there could be some wiggle room during the court trial on Oct. 7th. This isn’t the first time Valve has had issues with the Australian government. Another high-profile incident was that Australia found it too horrific for “Left 4 Dead 2” to
have blood or dismemberment — in a zombie game. Many have argued that it was due to most gamers being children, except that recent surveys have proven that the average gamer, around the world, is roughly 30 years old. Valve has officially commented, saying that they are going to try and cooperate with the ACCC in order to find a resolution that is permissible to everyone. Personally, I am conflicted. On one hand, Australia’s law is fairly cut-and-dried: you have to offer refunds or you’re breaking the law. Since the Australian government has a documented history of being difficult with gamers I can’t help but feel that they’re not doing this out of the concern for their citizens. Most of the strict laws Australia has made are from assumptions caused by the government; few, if any at all, have been caused by petitions or any other form of citizen-based concern or outrage. I feel like this is little more than Australian
government trying to flex its muscles. Do not misunderstand me; I’m against the No Refund policy when it comes to digital media purchases. After all, it’s incredibly easy to exploit. I also feel that Valve should not have a No Refund policy; it makes life easier for those who run customer service, sure, but it’s a rather anti-consumer mentality for a company that is known for being especially consumer-friendly. Having said that, I say shame on ACCC for going straight to a lawsuit. If they truly had the consumer’s and the Australian citizens’ best interest in their hearts, they would have set up a meeting with Valve in order to come to a compromise. Valve has been known to make exceptions and to look upon Australia in quite the favorable light. There is no reason to go straight for the legislative throat. As such, I declare that this is little more than trying to make a statement.

Sycamores sustain soccer slump Game One The Indiana State University women’s soccer team battled to a 2-2 overtime tie against UNC-Greensboro Friday night at Dick Dlesk Stadium. The Sycamores and the Spartans faced off at the West Virginia University 90 Minute Classic. ISU is now 1-2-2, while UNC-G is now 2-2-1. The overtime match is the 43rd in school history and the 23rd under Coach Erika True. The Sycamores are now 9-5-9 in overtime matches under True. Brittany San Roman continued to impress in goal for the Sycamores playing all 120 minutes. San Roman finished with nine saves to up her season total to 45. The ISU defense stepped up after a 13-shot first half, allowing just 10 shots in the second half and the two overtime periods. UNC-G stuck first in the 30th minute when Chesney White scored on a chip over San Roman’s head on a pass from Rebecca Burrows. ISU was able to knot the match up in the 34th minute when Kate Johnson had a one-on-one opportunity against the UNC-G goalkeeper and was able hit the far post for the goal. The goal is Johnson’s team-leading third. In the second half, Natalie Vaught was able to put ISU up on a shot that tipped off the Spartan goalkeepers’ hands and found the back of the net. Less than a minute later, White struck again for the Spartans tying the game up at 2-2 at the end of regulation. In the first overtime, Vaught had a chance but her shot was deflected off of the top of the right post. ISU had a couple more chances but were unable to capitalize. In the second overtime, Sydney Lovelace played a ball through to Johnson for a one-on-one opportunity but the Sycamores were whistled for offsides. The Spartans were able to put one past San Roman in the period, however they were called for offsides and the goal was waved off to end in a 2-2 tie.
Game Two The Indiana State women’s soccer team suffered a 9-1 loss to the Pride of Hostra University Sunday afternoon at West Virginia University’s Dick Dlesk Stadium. The teams were competing in the WVU 90 Minute Classic. ISU is now 1-3-2 on the season, while Hofstra improves to 3-2. Brittany San Roman played another full game in the cage for the Sycamores. She finished with five saves in the match. Hofstra had 26 total shots for the game. Offensively, Hofstra finished with 26 shots, and 14 ongoal. Jill Mulholland led them with seven shots and two goals, followed by Sam Scolarici with six shots and three goals. Leah Galton added two shots, both of them able to find the netting. Kristin Desmond also recorded a goal for Hofstra. For the Sycamores, Sydney Lovelace had five shots, and the Sycamore goal. Natalie Vaught

recorded one shot, and added an assist. The Sycamores had just 12 shots in the match. Hofstra stuck early, scoring the first goal in just the second minute of the match. Galton was able to put one past San Roman to get on the board. In the 13th minute, Scolarici added her fifth goal of the season when Amber Stobbs played a ball through the box and Scolarici was able to knock it in over the head of San Roman. Galton struck again in the 27th minute when she was able to dribble through the Sycamore defense and shoot from six yards out to put the Pride up 3-0. Hofstra started the second half the same way they did the first, scoring in the 48th minute of the match. A shot by Mulholland was deflected off a sliding defender, over the keeper’s head and deflected back down by the crossbar to put Hofstra up 4-0. The Pride added to their
lead when Kristin Desmond added a header off of was able to head home a corner from Emily Agudelo. The Sycamores were able to get on the board in the 62nd minute when Lovelace was able to rip a shot past the Hofstra keeper on a superb pass from Vaught. Hofstra countered by scoring two goals in the 63rd minute. Mulholland recorded the goal, while Agudelo and Desmond assisted on the play. Scolaici tacked on another goal just 27 seconds later. On the seventh Hofstra corner, a misplayed ball lead to an own goal to put the Pride up 8-1 in the 77th minute. Scolarici added another goal in the 84th minute when Jenna Borresen played a free kick into the box. The nine goals against ISU tie the most since October 14, 2012, a 2-9 loss to Illinois State.

Umeh’s next punt less than two minutes later was returned 72 yards by Ladari Vanlier and the Golden Eagles were suddenly in contention, trailing just 28-14. Not to be outdone, Indiana State stood tall and responded in a big way. On the ensuing possession, the Sycamore offense overwhelmed Tennessee Tech once again as Perish hooked up with Owens on a 31yard sideline pass and Heidorn’s fourth extra point of the game extended the host’s lead back out to 35-14. ISU wasn’t threatened again as the Sycamores continued to score, adding 14 points in the fourth quarter for the final 49-14 score. Indiana State excelled on both sides of the football but it was the offense that boasted the biggest numbers, racking up 543 yards of total offense. Perish was an accurate 26-of-34 passing including 383 yards and three touchdowns. Owens led the receiving corps with an astounding 199 yards and a score on just six catches. Brown added two scores through the air while Booker was the team’s top rusher with 77 yards and three touchdowns. Defensively, the Sycamores allowed just

166 yards including a much-improved run defense that held Tennessee Tech to 61 yards. Tsali Lough led the way with eight tackles while Jordan Wallace, Jameer Thurman and Connor Underwood were each credited with a sack. The defense also forced four turnovers including three fumbles that were picked
up by Donovan Layne, Conlan Cassidy and Norvel McGlaun. Travis Stark picked up his second interception of the season. “Offensively when you are able to run the ball and pass the ball, it keeps the defense guessing and I thought we did a really good job of that,” Sanford added. “Defensively we were much more disciplined than we were a week ago
against Indiana. I credit a lot of that to being a much more mature team.” Indiana State visits its second Indiana opponent of the year on Saturday when they travel to Muncie to take on Ball State. The Cardinals upset bid this past weekend of Big 10 School Iowa was spoiled in the fourth quarter as the Hawkeyes came back for a 17-13 win.

ISU gets spiked during weekend tournament

The Indiana State University volleyball team opened up play at the Duquesne/ Robert Morris Invitational against the host institutions, with a win over RMU in the morning but fell to the Dukes in the nightcap on Friday. ISU moves to 5-1 overall on the 2014 season. ISU started off the day with a 3-1 victory over Robert Morris on its home court while Duquesne knocked off the previously undefeated Sycamores 3-1 at AJ Palumbo Center. Before the defeat, ISU began the season 5-0 for the best start for the program since 1989. “I think tonight we started off too slow against a good Duquesne team who made the NCAA tournament last season,” head coach Traci Dahl-Skinner said. “We can’t have as many unforced errors as we did and expect to win. I think we think handled the pressure from Robert Morris well this morning
and I think we did a great job of coming back when we were down.” Sophomore outside hitter Bree Spangler notched her sixth double-digit kill performance of the season but ISU volleyball fell to Youngstown State, 3-1 on Saturday afternoon at the AJ Palumbo Center in. ISU drops to 5-2 overall on the season and 1-2 on the weekend at the Robert Morris/Duquesne Invitational. Spangler recorded 13 kills and 13 digs on the afternoon, but ISU hit just .125 in the four set match. Junior middle blocker Cassandra Willis had eight kills while senior middle blocker Kyla Thomas added seven. In the back row, freshman libero Stephanie Bindernagel had a team-high 14 digs while sophomore defensive specialist Shannon Murphy racked up 12. Youngstown State put on a block party with 12 rejections in the contest and had three players with double-digit kills. The Penguins hit .224 for the contest and
recorded 77 team digs. “We’ve definitely felt weaknesses on the court in the past two matches, and we have a lot of work to do this next week because we have a quick turnaround to IUPUI on Tuesday,” ISU head coach Traci Dahl-Skinner said. “We are seeing some good things without younger girls but we just need to make some smarter decisions on the court for it to all even out.” ISU led 13-10 early on in set one but a seven-point run gave the Penguins a four-point edge. Sophomore middle blocker Melody Burdette laid one on the floor to cut the YSU lead to 19-21 and service errors put the set back in reach. Spangler and a YSU attack error tied it up at 21-21 but a 3-1 run gave ISU a loss in set one, 22-25. Freshman defensive specialist Danielle Waedekin started off set two with backto-back aces. The two teams battled closely throughout the second set, but a Nord
dump gave her team a 10-7 advantage. Another ace by Waedekin combined with attacking errors elevated ISU’s lead to 16-12 forcing a Penguin timeout. But would take extra points for ISU to get the set two victory as a Thomas block and Bindernagel ace sealed the 28-26 win. Set three went all YSU’s way, breezing by the Sycamores 25-17. Three services aces and a .132 hitting percentage hindered any chances for ISU. The Sycamores kept it tight in set four, letting the Penguins battle back to a 13-13 tie. YSU looked as if it would easily take the third, with match point at 24-21. But a kill by freshman outside hitter Sarah Peterson and error by YSU brought ISU within one. However, backto-back kills doomed ISU, 24-26. Spangler was rewarded for her performance on the weekend with a spot on the all-tournament team. ISU continues its road swing with a single match at IUPUI on Tuesday at 7 p.m.
