Morgan Gallas Reporter Indiana State University’s chapter of Alpha Tau Omega is suspended pending an investigation by university officials. The university is set to determine if ATO has violated guidelines regarding alcohol and social events — guidelines that were determined in a previous agreement. Dave Taylor, director of media relations for ISU, offered a statement. “In response to violations of its 2013 probation agreement, the Division of Student Affairs has ordered the Zeta Omicron Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega to refrain from any activities as an organization pending final reviews and determinations regarding the chapter by the university and the Alpha Tau Omega national headquarters,” Taylor said. ISU officials have declined further comment on ATO’s suspension since the matter is still under investigation. Austin Skaggs, a junior biochemistry major, is the president of ATO and has been a part of the group since 2012. “The university has said that we violated our past probation,” Skaggs said. “We had a set of guidelines we had to follow until this past January.” Several events have led to the fraternity’s investigation. In January, a friend arrived at the ATO house intoxicated, Skaggs said. “[The friend] drank before he came to our house,” Skaggs said. “He wasn’t drinking at our house. He got into trouble when he was returning to campus. The university said that he was drinking at our house, which he wasn’t. They said we had an unregistered party that night, which

Summer classes help students stay on track Makyla Thompson Reporter Taking summer classes is usually the furthest thing from students’ minds, especially after returning from spring break, but it’s something they should seriously consider. Summer school gives Indiana State University students an opportunity to take classes to graduate early, to get back on track, or to simply get some classes out of the way. Regina Atkins, the admissions regional coordinator, said she thinks summer classes can help students plan their college careers. “I think it’s a way to manage time,” Atkins said. “For upperclassmen it is really about them getting ahead or spacing out major requirements. It is a good planning tool.” Students should do research before signing up for summer classes to make sure their credits will transfer and that they can afford it.
“Students will take courses but don’t check to make sure their credits will transfer,” Atkins said. “Having financial issues, it will hurt you if you are not financially OK to take summer classes.” Financial aid for summer classes is limited, but students can use whatever money is left over from their Federal Perkins Loans, Pell Grants or other aid to pay for summer classes. Students from outside Terre Haute should also consider taking summer classes at other institutions in their hometowns. “What I would encourage students to do is to do full research about what they need, and if they can get a class elsewhere,” Atkins said. “Of course we want everybody to be a Sycamore and get their courses here, but realistically Indiana State views education as a priority — we want to make sure it is affordable.” ISU is offering six summer terms that students can choose from: three-week, two different four-week, seven-week, eight-week or 11-week terms.
The cost of summer classes depends in science classes in one semester, and I on how many credit hours a student didn’t want to do that because science is wants to take. challenging.” ISU’s website lists that each credit hour below six costs $298 per hour, while six to nine credit hours costs a flat fee of $1,788. Hours above nine are billed at the flat rate plus $298 for each additional hour. Rates for out-of-state and international students are higher, and details may be found on ISU’s website. Hannah Johnson, a sophomore nursing major, said she took CHEM 100 over the summer to help her get ahead. “For the nursing program you have to have three semesters of science before you apply, and you are required to take four science classes,” Johnson said. “So if I didn’t take it (Illustration by Clipart.com). over the summer I would be doubling up
Indiana State and Ivy Tech rework transfer student agreement Morgan Gallas Reporter Indiana State University has recently overhauled the reverse transfer agreement with Ivy Tech to include all Ivy Tech colleges in Indiana. Ivy Tech transfer students are now able to complete their associate degree at ISU while working toward their bachelor’s degree simultaneously. Ken Brauchle, dean of extended learning, explained what the agreement means for students. “The purpose of the agreement is to have students who have a significant amount of education at Ivy Tech, or any two-year, that are looking at a reverse transfer to be able to complete an associate degree on the way to a bachelor’s degree,” Brauchle said. Before this agreement, one would get an associate degree at a two-year institution and then come to ISU and have to get 120-plus hours to earn their bachelor’s degree.
“With the reverse transfer agreement, we actually track students with their permission and send transcripts back to the twoyear institution so that if they complete requirements that would transfer back in the other direction, they would be rewarded with their associate degree,” Brauchle said. Being in this program does not cost students anything nor does it slow their progress to their bachelor’s degree. The program is meant to give intermediate credentials. “Particularly with parttime students who are working at a slow pace towards their bachelor’s degree and are holding a job can now have an associate degree that may improve their promotional oppor-
tunities at work or qualify them for a better-paying job,” Brauchle said. Ivy Tech is the biggest source of transfer students for ISU. While ISU is still a more traditional campus where most students come directly out of high school, there is still a strong body of students who have transferred to ISU. “We have two main [transfer] feeders from the state: Vincennes University and Ivy Tech,” Brauchle said. “Last year, Ivy Tech did a major reorganization and they created a division for university and transfer programs. This was an initiative that came out of their president’s office.” Dr. Russell Baker is the vice president of academic affairs and university trans-
“The purpose of the agreement is to have students who have a significant amount of education ... to be able to complete an associate degree on the way to a bachelor’s degree.” Ken Brauchle
fer division at Ivy Tech who fully supported the overhaul of the reverse transfer agreement. “ISU has been one of the most positive universities to work with in establishing articulation partnerships,” Baker said. “We really appreciate the spirit of cooperation and collaboration that exists between Ivy Tech and ISU.” The main goal of the reverse transfer agreement is to increase the number of people with postsecondary credentials to improve the workforce. “Reverse transfer is receiving national attention as an important part of a national strategy to increase student completion of high education credentials, which is one of President Obama’s specific goals,” Baker said. “Students are ultimately the primary beneficiary of this opportunity.” The goal of the transfer program is “to recognize postsecondary attainment of as many Hoosiers as possible,” Brauchle said.

We haven’t had anything since then.” ATO and the university haven’t always gotten along in the past. “Everyone in ATO believes that this is all unfair,” Skaggs said. “The university is going off of a track record from years back.

We have definitely gotten stronger as brothers through this.”

Greek Awards honor sorority for community efforts Myesha Garner Reporter Zeta Tau Alpha was recently awarded the President’s Cup for Panhellenic Council Sorority of the Year, an award recognized as a high achievement for the sorority. On March 4 an award ceremony was held which honored Zeta Tau Alpha for its efforts in the community. Pi Kappa Alpha won the President’s Cup for Interfraternity Council Fraternity of the Year, and Omega Psi Phi won the President’s Cup for the National PanHellenic Council Fraternity of the year as well. Brooklyn Hollis, a junior legal studies major as well as the president of Zeta Tau Alpha, said the award means a lot to her sorority. “Winning President’s Cup means that all of the time and effort we put into planning events, educating our new members, performing community service, and making good grades all paid

President’s effectiveness defined by events during term Barack Obama is the 44th President of the United States, and at the end of his first term, he had an approval rating of 50 percent according to findthebest.com. This rating is identical to former president George W. Bush’s. Currently, Obama’s approval rating is 10 percent higher than Bush’s was at this time. Guest A younger president, Columnist Obama took office at age 47, while former presidents like Bush and Lincoln did not begin their presidency until the ages of 54 and 52 respectively. In light of domestic politics, Obama has worked to promote economic progress by signing The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in 2009, along with other stimulus bills aimed at reducing the deficit and creating jobs. Environment and energy have also been a top priority issue for the President; following the Deepwater Platform Disaster in the Gulf of Mexico that led to the largest oil spill in American history, Obama set new safety regulations for offshore drilling and worked toward facilitating the cleanup process. Obama also addressed national health care woes by signing the Affordable Care Act — a controversial bill reforming private sector companies and expanding coverage for Americans.
Mason Moton
Bush also addressed widespread domestic issues, including education and medical coverage — he signed the No Child Left Behind Act and the Medicare Prescription Drug and Modernization Act. On September 11, 2001, Islamist terrorists hijacked four American commercial airliners and crashed three of them into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The crisis transformed his presidency and refocused his domestic agenda on national security and the signing of the Patriot Act. The restoration of the Union was Lincoln’s overwhelming priority as president. He directed much of the early strategy in the Civil War. At the same time, Lincoln made some major changes to government policy that did not pass without resistance. He implemented a military draft that led to riots in New York City in 1863. Financing the war required the creation of the first income tax. Most significantly, he issued the Emancipation Proclamation and followed with a push for the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, abolishing slavery. At the end of Bush’s presidency, the national deficit was $464 billion. Currently, the deficit is at $426 billion. When President Obama took office in 2009, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq had been going on for nearly a decade. He approved an additional 21,000-troop surge to Afghanistan and announced the end of the war in Iraq.
The Iraq War officially ended on August 31, 2010, with all troops to be brought home by the end of 2011. In early 2011, Obama agreed to NATO’s bombing campaign on Libya in support of the uprising against the dictator’s Muammar Gaddafi’s regime. On May 1, 2011, President Obama approved the operation that targeted and killed Al Quida leader Osama Bin Laden. The big foreign policy issue in Lincoln’s time concerned whether major European nations would view the Confederacy as a sovereign state. Lincoln carefully handled matters such as the arrest of two Confederate diplomats on the British ship Trent, ordering the prisoners released. European neutrality, however, was mainly protected by macroeconomic systems: crop failures made Union agriculture a necessary European import, Egypt and India supplied the cotton blocked from the American South, and any loss in textile exports was made up for by the Union’s production of weapons and other manufactured goods. There was no reason for any nation to recognize the Confederacy and risk throwing their rivals into alliance with the Union. After the worst terrorist attack on American soil, Bush declared a War on Terrorism and began a military campaign against al-Qaida in Afghanistan. In 2002, Bush announced it would act “preemptively” against states that threat-

ened American security. The following year, President Bush ordered the invasion of Iraq and the removal of the dictator Saddam Hussein, based on evidence of weapons of mass destruction. George W. Bush and multiple members of his administration would come under fire in the following years by officials, the media and the public for allegedly misleading the United States into a war. Public support for Operation Iraqi Freedom would drop as the war and U.S. occupation of Iraq continued — 38 percent in 2008 — and the death toll mounted to 4,000 U.S. soldiers in early 2008. Each president is defined by the time in which they serve, the events of that time and how they manage those events in light of the Constitution and American freedom. Obama has not had an easy presidency in light of the recession, war and civil unrest. His speech at the 50th anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Selma, Alabama, distinguished his presidency — all the more solidifying him as one of our nation’s greatest leaders. This is most evident to me in a quote from Obama’s speech in Selma: “We honor those who walked so we could run. We must run so our children soar. And we will not grow weary. For we believe in the power of an awesome God, and we believe in this country’s sacred promise.”

Sen. Cruz clambers into presidential candidacy
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, has officially announced his candidacy for president, making him the first to announce a 2016 campaign while presidential potentials like Jeb Bush, Hillary Clinton, Scott Walker and others are taking their time. In his formal announcement speech at Political Liberty University in Columnist Virginia, Cruz spoke on the “opportunity of the American dream” as he detailed his background and asked the audience to envision a country that has “booming economic growth,” a flat tax rate and abolished IRS that will promote “innovation,” and a government that will not “wage an assault on our religious liberty.” Senator Cruz delivered a very conservative speech that detailed an entirely conservative platform that will certainly mobilize the Tea Party wing of the party.
Julian Winborn
According to Politico, Cruz’s hardline conservative platform is his attempt at destroying “the mushy middle.” Politico writes that Cruz strategists want to establish Cruz “as the first choice” of the Tea Party, and “become at least the second choice of evangelicals.” Right now, Cruz’s strategy is entirely normal. Often, when politicians first announce their candidacy they appeal to the wings of their parties: Republicans might pander to the right wing and Democrats appeal to liberals because those are the voters who will vote during the primary stage to move that candidate along in the process. Leading up to the 2008 election, President Obama’s progressive values were very apparent, and once it came to the general election he moved towards the political center and gained the support of more moderate or conservative Democrats and Republicans. Cruz can certainly get the Tea Party and evangelicals fired up, but gaining the support of the “establishment” or more moderate Republicans will be very difficult. Cruz is still considered the architect of the 2013
government shutdown and is not taken seriously by some Republicans. According to the Hill, Republican Rep. Peter King stated that Americans have to “find a more qualified candidate.” King went on saying that “shutting down” the government and “reading Dr. Seuss on the Senate floor” are the signs of a “sideshow entertainer,” not a president. Cruz’s antics are an obstacle to him being taken seriously as a candidate. MSNBC commentator, Donny Deutsch, recently argued that Cruz has “accomplished nothing” and stated that Cruz is only involved in two bills and is an “obstructionist.” According to the New York Times, Cruz has not had a lawmaker reputation as he has sponsored or co-sponsored one hundred twelve pieces of legislation, while only one has become law. However, he certainly has shown that he is an obstructionist as he concerns himself more with opposing the administration. So with his involvement in the shutdown, the very conservative message that he delivered at Liberty University,
his actions in the Senate and his lack of legislative activity, we know that Cruz can play politics, but can he govern? That’s not clear and it is obvious that his potential opponents are very capable of governing. While Cruz is the only person to have announced their candidacy, everyone still has an eye on Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, Bobby Jindal, Marco Rubio and Rick Perry among others. Those potential candidates have translated their conservative principles into legislative action and have actually contributed rather than simply obstructing what they don’t like. Cruz will have a very hard time competing with the long records of his opponents, and in the long shot event that he will be in the general election against Hillary Clinton, competing with her record will be impossible. Those who have worked with Cruz praise his intelligence and ambition, however being smart and calculating is not a unique feature among politicians who run for president. The Republican party needs a serious and accomplished candidate, and Cruz is neither.

‘Basic’ understanding: You are more than a label
What does it mean to be basic? Are women being referred to as the fundamental starting point in society? Or could they be accusing us of having a pH greater than 7? Unfortunately in today’s pop culture, the term basic has become slang. According to UrColumnist ban Dictionary, to be basic is to be without “defining characteristics that might make a person interesting, extraordinary or just simply worth devoting time or attention to.” Three things come to mind when I hear the term basic — Starbucks, Lilly Pulitzer and monograms. Call it my sorority sixth sense but sporting any of these three across campus often elicits the assumption that I am part of the “basic” population. However, I think it
Kirstyn Quandt
is fair to assume that this classification has a negative connotation. Judging by the Urban Dictionary definition, based upon something I wear or a beverage I enjoy, I am ultimately less interesting and not worth devoting time to. I often think that pop culture confuses fads and trends with pursued interests. Sure we may have seen four or five of our friends carrying a Lilly Pulitzer bag, but is it so heinous to believe that we may share the same sense of style? Or during Cranberry Bliss and White Peppermint Mocha season at Starbucks, is it absurd to think I may partake in the joys of delicious, warm treats? We all find our happiness somehow and I’m pretty sure all of the above are safe and legal. It may be more useful to turn your attention and criticism to behaviors that are lacking the two. Some of you may think it is ridiculous of me to write this column. Some of you may even think I’m a bit basic myself. I have written about “Legally Blonde” and referenced Dove chocolates and Starbucks endless times. But these
are things I love, not qualities that make me less interesting as a person. Basic, preppy, whatever you refer to it as, is ignorant. Classifications are all around us. We see a nice handbag and assume wealth, or we witness someone consistently asking questions at the front of class and transform their identity from a peer into a nerd. However, from a basic glance, we know nothing about someone. The same goes for all “basic” individuals. For example, it would be a shame for someone to witness me around 9 a.m. after my morning workout and assume that I always have the scent of sweat and hair that is the product of miles and squats. In reality, our peers on campus are strangers — individuals with pasts that we know nothing about and with goals we may even share. Now this is not to the say that we are immune from judging others. It is a natural reaction that occurs endlessly throughout the day. However, the trouble lies in the power we give the judgment.
When we label someone, we are defining their actions, thoughts, and values. By society’s definition, to say a woman is basic, you are saying that her actions and thoughts are conceited and her values are lacking. Does it seem logical that a patterned backpack or pair of riding boots determines whether or not you value honesty and intelligence in yourself? Now to some extent, women are also instigating the word and adding to its power. I have heard endless individuals on campus say “I’m so basic.” While I’m all about a good joke, you’re only hurting yourself by this statement. It wasn’t until the word frustrated me in its constant use that I chose to look up its definition. It is not something we should aspire to be, but on the flip side it is an ignorant phrase that a woman with strong integrity and values shouldn’t let affect her. As women we are powerful in our skinnies and lethal in our heels. Enjoying life does not make one less worthy of attention, only more immune from the ignorance within it.

Students celebrate St. Patrick’s Day a number of ways Adler Ingalsbe Reporter
When most people are asked what their favorite holidays are, the usual Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, Fourth of July and New Year’s are what usually come out of their mouths first — yet St. Patrick’s Day always seems to be cut off the list. Unlike the other popular holidays that are celebrated with family and friends taking part in traditions all across America — and even the world — St. Patty’s Day only seems to have one that everyone knows about — you must wear the color green on March 17 or run the risk of being pinched. This year, Indiana State University students and staff spent their green holiday away from the Terre Haute campus and community, as it was the school’s spring break. Even with St. Patrick’s Day falling during the week of spring break, students still found ways to enjoy the holiday while in different parts of the United States. Dreyson Boyd, senior sports management major, traveled north to spend his holiday in Indianapolis with some of his friends, where they enjoyed some time together.
“I drove up to Indy with some of my old friends from Indiana State, [where] we celebrated downtown at the Nine Irish Brothers bar,” Boyd said. This was the first time Boyd had ever taken part in the celebration of St. Patty’s Day, but it didn’t stop him from remembering to wear something green. “I’ve never celebrated St. Patrick’s Day before, so it was the first time I’ve ever experienced what goes on. Although it was my first time going out for it, I still wore a green shirt and even brought out a green leprechaun hat,” Boyd said of his first St. Patrick’s Day. Storm Nasser, junior exercise science major, spent the holiday in warmer temperatures, where he got to enjoy the warm Florida sun during the day and went out later in the evening. “I was in Daytona Beach, Florida, for that part of spring break with some of my friends from ISU. We spent the day hanging on the beach and by the pool and then went out to eat and visited a few parties at night,” Nasser said. Unlike Boyd, Nasser said he had experienced St. Patrick’s Day in the past and noticed a slight difference this year compared to years past because of the tem-
perature, but he did not break out any clothes that had any shade of green on them. “This year’s [holiday] was a little different because I was in Florida and on the beach, but I didn’t wear anything that had green on it and surprisingly nothing happened to me,” Nasser said. Kelli Buchanan, sophomore nursing major, like Nasser, enjoyed the warmth of the southern sun where she spent the day lying on the beach and the night hanging with family and friends. “I went to Melbourne, Florida, for the break. I have family down there so we laid out on the beach and made sand castles throughout the day and then went to a local restaurant in the evening. At the restaurant, everyone in the building played St. Patrick’s Day trivia, with the winner getting their meal for free,” Buchanan said. Buchanan was very surprised at the number of people who came out for this special St. Patty’s Day trivia night and was even more surprised by how heavily it was celebrated down there. “I was shocked to see that everyone in the city was wearing some kind of
apparel that had green on it. I was even more surprised to see the [number] of people out walking the streets and celebrating the holiday. I had never seen it [St. Patrick’s Day] being celebrated so much,” Buchanan said. While it may never reach the popularity of Christmas or Thanksgiving, perhaps St. Patrick’s Day will become a favorite holiday for people who have seen it celebrated and will start to celebrate it themselves.

ISU faculty members travel to Cuba for spring break study Josh Deleon Reporter Spring break is most commonly a time of relaxation. Many students took time this spring break to enjoy the weather or decided to head home and have quality time with friends, families and pets. Freshman political science major Nick McGrath spent his break at home. He described his first college spring break as “relaxing.” Other students took the time to travel across the country. Freshman architecture major Tristian Keil said, “I went to Arizona for spring break to visit my dad. And it turned out to be a great trip. It was relaxing. ” While many students stayed in the United States, some faculty members decided to participate in a trip to Cuba to learn and study the differences in the health care between Cuba and the U.S.
Indiana State University has a faculty exchange agreement with the University of Havana, Cuba. This agreement allows for faculty members to travel to the country and spend time there. The trip is entirely escorted and thoroughly planned. “Travelling to Cuba is a project. It isn’t something done easily or quickly,” said Indiana State faculty member Dr. Henry Erisman. Erisman headed the organization of the trip to Cuba. This trip was made possible by a lot of effort from both Indiana State and the University of Havana. Erisman said that despite some very inappropriate stereotypes Cuban citizens are very nice and welcoming people. Erisman has visited Cuba several times and studies different aspects of the country. Erisman explained that although the country of Cuba is in need of advancement in certain areas they are indeed
successful in the health care field. Cuba has 50,000 health care professionals scattered around the world practicing. Cuba is globally recognized for their success in the medical field. Erisman explains the health care system to be, “more preventive than corrective.” If a person has a medical need there are clinics in their neighborhoods that they could visit before they need to go to a bigger hospital. This system of health care is what helps Cuba maintain their life expectancy of an average 78 and their very low infant mortality rate. Contrarily, Americans are used to a health care system that helps when needed rather than before. These differences in health care are what the faculty spent their time studying and learning while in Cuba. Although they have had a very different experience of spring break, some stu-
dents are impressed with the faculty for their trip to Cuba. “I think it seems like a very enriching experience to be able to see what another side of the health care system is like,” McGrath said. The faculty members listened to lectures and met counterparts. In the past, faculty members have taken students on similar trips. Erisman said if a student is curious about perhaps taking advantage of Indiana State’s study abroad program, this type of event can help give a good idea of what it may be like studying abroad for a semester. Keil said he thinks studying abroad would be a fun experience. “It’d be cool to go over there and to be able to study things that you’ve never studied before. And learn things that will help you in the future,” Keil said.

Scott College of Business professor receives award for research Betsy Simon
ISU Communications and Marketing Teaching students to think through ethical dilemmas logically is Bill Wilhelm’s specialty. Now the professor of business education in Indiana State University’s Scott College of Business is being recognized nationally for his research in the field. Wilhelm will receive the 2015 Business Education Research Award for his paper, “We are Not Like Them — They are Not Like Us: Cultural Dimensions and Moral Reasoning in Thailand and the United States.” The award presentation will take place at the Business Education Research Conference held in conjunction with the National Business Education Association Convention in Chicago on April 1. His paper will also be published in the Journal for Research in Business Education. While on sabbatical last fall, Wilhelm served as visiting scholar at the faculty of political science and public administration at Chiang Mai University where he lectured and conducted research on cultural differences between Thai and U.S. populations and how cultural dimensions affect ethical decision-making. “I found that many Thai academics lecture about facts and often don’t teach
things about behavioral susceptibilities in ethical decision-making, so to be able to teach about things that those students didn’t have exposure to was a blast,” Wilhelm said. “You can’t force people to be ethical, but you can teach people ethical reasoning.” Building on findings from his recent research in Thailand, Wilhelm and a colleague at Chiang Mai University have plans to examine how Thai people perceive giving and accepting bribes. Bribery is a big problem in Thailand and it is the focus and concern of the government and educational institutions. “Your culture makes up your perspective of reality and you base your ethical decision making on your perspectives of reality. However our human susceptibilities to biases and shortcutting in-depth logical analysis can lead us to unethical decisions. I hope I gave the Thai students the tools to help them think through ethical dilemmas, which is something all people will deal with,” Wilhelm said. This was the first time research like Wilhelm’s was conducted in Thailand. He translated a survey instrument that measures moral reasoning and a survey instrument that assess cultural dimensions into Thai for the first time with the help of Thai colleagues and a Thai stu-

dent at Indiana State. “I started this research in Thailand in 2011, and then pilot tested the translated instruments and found glitches,” Wilhelm said. “I then had more work to do on the instruments as far as language and cultural adjustments, and was able to pilot test the instruments a second time in Chiang Mai upon my return this past fall. After successfully testing the instruments, I gathered data about moral reasoning and cultural dimension among both Thai and U.S. undergraduates and graduates, which I’ll be presenting in Chicago.” When Wilhelm first got to Indiana State in 2001 and began researching moral reasoning, there wasn’t much of a focus on ethics until the failure of Enron. “Then all the sudden business ethics became an important stream of research,” he said. “I’m glad that, as a university, we require all students to take a foundational ethics course. I think it’s a good thing to learn how to tackle ethical dilemmas with some framework to think things through analytically.” Ethics lessons, like Wilhelm offered last semester, are beneficial in a place like Thailand, where bribery and corruption are common. “When there’s bribery and corruption in public transactions, services and in-
ternational trade, it’s a warning flag to external investment sources,” Wilhelm said. “U.S. companies that want to expand are cautious about going into a country with a lot of corruption because U.S. companies are bound by U.S. laws to not participate in bribery even though other local competitors might choose to do so. If they have rampant corruption proliferating throughout their economic system, it will have wealthy countries thinking twice before investing there, so it has to be tackled in Thailand and other countries.” Wilhelm and a Thai colleague are interested in further research of public sector corruption in Thailand. “What I found out through my research is that the big difference between Thailand and the U.S. is that in Thailand maintaining the status quo is very common,” Wilhelm said. “If unethical practices hurt the little guy in our country, we speak up. Over there you often don’t. You often accept unethical behavior — like bribery — as just the way things are done.” “In Thailand, people look at bribery as a value-added transaction, but is it ethical?” Wilhelm asked. “Is the machinery of public service supposed to operate for the benefit of the citizens, or does it have to be oiled with money in the form of bribes?”

Lansing announces Bennett and Etherington will transfer Ace Hunt ISU Athletic Media Relations Indiana State University basketball coach Greg Lansing has announced that redshirt freshman Alex Etherington and junior Tre’ Bennett will not return to the Sycamore program. “After the season is over, we always have individual meetings with each of our players,” Lansing said. “Even though we won 11 Missouri Valley Conference games and finished third to two Top Ten teams, we were very disappointed in how we started and finished the year. We are always trying to get better. After our player meetings, two of our players will not be with our program in the future.” Bennett, a 5-10 guard, played in 30 games and started six this past season en route to being named to the Missouri Valley Conference All-Bench Team. He averaged 8.0 points and 2.5 rebounds and shot 38.9 percent from the field including 34.7 percent from 3-point range. Bennett’s career high came with 16 points at Evansville. He added nine rebounds in a home win over Southern Illinois and dished out a season-best six assists on four different occasions. “Tre’ Bennett would like to find a school closer to home,” Lansing said. “He has a Grandmother who is very ill and that has had some effect on him being a distance from home. Tre’ is a good player that did a lot of good things for us. Being on the Missouri Valley All-

Bench team was a great accomplishment. Sycamore Basketball thanks Tre’ for all that he has done for us and wish him the very best as he moves forward with his career on and off the court.” Etherington, a 6-5 guard/forward, was a member of the program for two years and appeared in 26 games scoring 79 points and averaged 3.0 points, shot 36.0 percent from the field and 29.1 percent from 3-point range. Etherington scored a career-high 13 points in a home win over Evansville as he hit a trio
of 3-pointers. “After talking with Alex Etherington, we have decided that it would be best for him to get a fresh start somewhere else,” Lansing said. “Alex works extremely hard on his game and is a good player with tremendous potential. We thank Alex for all his hard work and wish him nothing but the best.” “We are actively helping both studentathletes in finding another school,” Lansing said. “Neither young man knows where he will be going as of yet.”
Sycamores finish eighth at tightly contested Low Country Intercollegiate Ace Hunt ISU Athletic Media Relations In a tightly contested tournament that saw just 12 strokes separate the fourth- through eighth-place teams, Indiana State finished with a two-day score of 638 and tied for eighth place at the Low Country Intercollegiate. The event was held at the par-72, 5,988-yard Moss Creek Golf Club. “We got in a few good days during our Spring Break trip,” head coach Greg Towne said. “The team made a lot of progress on many things given a few days of good weather. I feel pretty good about where we are. Our team experienced some sporadic good play from every player so it should come together just right down the stretch run of the season.”
The Sycamores battled cool and damp conditions and posted a second-round tally of 323 after recording a 315 on Saturday. Their score of 638 tied with Gardner-Webb for eighth place in the 15-team field. Princeton and host Wofford carded scores of 309 during each round and tied for the tournament title with a score of 618. Savannah State’s 621 was third. The next five spots were separated by just 12 strokes as High Point was fourth, Bethune-Cookman was fifth, Radford was sixth, Appalachian State was seventh while Indiana State and Gardner-Webb were eighth. Indiana State bested Towson, USC Upstate, Navy, The Citadel, Presbyterian and St. Francis in the event. Amanda Smith showed improvement as she carded
a final round of 78 after battling through with an 81 on Saturday. Her total of 159 tied for 20th. Marissa Uradomo tallied an 83 after posting a round of 75 and finished with a score of 158 which tied for 18th. Gina Della Camera’s round of 80 followed a 79 and her total of 159 also tied for 20th. The Sycamores also got an 83 from Erinn Sutton which followed her score of 80 and her total of 163 was tied for 33rd. Andrea Frankiewicz rebounded from a 91 to post an 82 in the final round. Her two-day score of 173 tied for 62nd. Savannah’s Sofia Molinaro and Princeton’s Jordan Lippetz tied for first individually with a two-day score of 146. Indiana State returns to action on April 3-4 at the Bradley Spring Invitational in Peoria, Illinois.
