State Ways and Means Committee asks Bradley to defend tuition increase
JESSICA SQUIRES Editor-in-chief
INDIANAPOLIS --President Daniel J. Bradley defended ISU’s 3.5 percent tuition increase to state officials in a hearing at the Indiana Statehouse on Tuesday. Indiana State Representative Jeff Espich of the State Budget Committee summoned officials from ISU and six other Indiana universities to defend their current tuition increases in a hearing with the committee and other officials from the Indiana Commission of Higher Education.
In May, the Indiana Commission for Higher Education suggested that ISU’s tuition should not exceed an increase of 2.5 percent. Indiana State Senator Luke Kenley, Chairman of the appropriations committee, said that with tuition rising over 1,000 percent, the state wants to make sure that universities aren’t raising tuition in order to receive more appropriations from the state in the form of financial aid. “We are reining that in to make sure that affordability and accessibility are a priority,” he said.

HMSU tells “stall stories” WHITNEY NEUKAM Reporter
A new form of reading material is donning the walls of the bathrooms in HMSU. “Stall Stories” are HMSU’s newest way of advertising the services offered to students. “Ever since the flyers went up last week, more students have come to the desk to find out more about the services we offer,” said sophomore marketing major Jessica Rutledge. The flyers tell students how to check out board games, such as checkers, chess, Apples to Apples, and several other services. Also advertised are campus information resources such as campus maps and other services such as computer laptop lending for commuter students; lost and found services; public transportation information; tire pumps; vending machine refunds; and locker rentals, pending availability.
Rutledge, who works at the HMSU Information Desk, said since the flyers were placed she has noticed an increase in the number of students taking advantage of the services offered at HMSU. Although commuter students use the services most frequently, any ISU student is welcome to take advantage of HMSU’s services, Rutledge said. Because the building opens at 7 a.m. Monday-Saturday and remains open until midnight seven days a week, busy students are given the opportunity to stop by the union at times that are most convenient to them. More information about what HMSU has to offer students can be found on the flyers located in HMSU bathrooms, the Information Desk and the Indiana State website.

Murray unveils strategic plan Ashley Deckard Reporter
College of Arts and Sciences Dean John Murray unveiled a new strategic plan for his college Thursday as part of an effort to make his programs more visible. At his annual fall address in Dede I of Hulman Memorial Student Union, Murray outlined a draft of the plan, the first of its kind for Arts and Sciences. He began by thanking the eightmember team for taking four full days from their summer to both draft and finalize the plan. The team analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of the colleges and identified areas of im-
provement. Changes and goals were decided upon and the plan took form. The plan includes five individual goals and several objectives for each goal. The goals range from enhancing student success to becoming more involved in the community and with the other colleges on campus. Murray said he hopes the new plan will move the college forward and make it more visible and interactive. The plan will be available online on the Arts & Sciences webpage for faculty and students to read. Murray encourage people to read the plan and give specific feedback, suggestions and views to make it work. His goal is for the first phase to be completed by Dec. 31st.

The Indiana Statesman was founded May 16, 1929, the same year that Indiana State Normal School became Indiana State Teachers College. The newspaper began in December 1879 as the State Normal News. In November 1895, the paper was first issued as the Normal Advance. Members of the ISU community are welcome to take a single copy of each issue of this newspaper. The unauthorized taking of multiple copies, however, may constitute theft, which is a crime, even with free publications. Thefts will be reported to campus police for possible prosecution and/or for other disciplinary actions. The Indiana Statesman exists for four main reasons: to provide the ISU community with news and information, to serve the campus as a public forum for student and reader comments, to offer student staff members chances to apply their skills in different aspects of a news publication, and to give students leadership opportunities.
Goal One: Enhance success of all ISU students Goal Two: Enhance connections with the university and the community Goal Three: Develop interdisciplinary and collaboration in the College of Arts and Sciences Goal Four: Increase and diversify revenue Goal Five: Improve professional satisfaction To see the full plan, visit indstate.edu/cas and click on “Dean Murray’s 2011 Fall Address”
HEARING FROM PAGE ONE Teresa Lubbers, commissioner of the Indiana Commission for Higher Education, said that Indiana’s future relies on higher education. “Our primary focus is students who are staking their dreams on the accessibility and affordability of college,” she said. She said the rate of tuition increase has outpaced the average Hoosier income. Bradley and Randy Minas, vice president of ISU’s Board of Trustees, told the budget committee that tuition rates have a direct correlation to appropriation. Minas said the money that ISU has received from the state is reminiscent of the levels of appropriation in the mid 1990s. “ISU is totally committed to provide affordable quality education to meet the needs of students,” he said. Bradley pointed to other states that have been stricter in setting firm tuition increase limits and called attention to the quality of education at those institutions. Bradley said that “there is a fair deal in
John Murray, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, delivers his annual fall address Thursday in Dede I of Hulman Memorial Student Union. (Photo by Cory Simon) both directions” between the state of Indiana and students of ISU and asked that state officials use caution when capping tuition increases. “What needs to happen in the long term is an understanding between higher education and legislators that there is a correlation between tuition and appropriation,” Bradley said. He told the committee that ISU tried to live with the recommendations made by the commission but stated that mandates need to be made a lot sooner than a month before legislative action. “Our ships cannot be turned on a dime,” Bradley said. He said that finding out that state appropriations would be cut by $4 million and that there would a lower suggested rate of increased tuition one month before the end of the fiscal year is more than ISU could absorb. Prior to the hearing, Bradley said that his goal was to provide the information the state needs and, in the meeting, emphasized that he was not there to com-
plain. After hearing Bradley and Minas’s defense, Kenley emphasized the importance of the Commission for Higher Education’s recommendation for tuition rates and said concern about changing the game on universities is “falling on deaf ears.” Bradley said ISU’s commitment to keeping tuition within the commissions recommendations is a strongly held goal but if the state continues to cut funding to universities there will be consequences. “Indiana has to decide what kind of universities they want,” Bradley said. “I am not saying we couldn’t run with another cut but the product won’t be the same.” Espich said that he sees the Commission for Higher Education as a neutral body trying to provide a middle ground that focuses on the immediacy of keeping higher education affordable rather than the universities’ focus on producing the best quality of education. “Difficult times for universities is a tough time for Hoosiers,” he said.

ISU, city marking 9/11 Dustyn Fatheree Reporter
Indiana State University will commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks Sunday, with music and a candlelight vigil. The School of Music will hold a remembrance concert titled, “Reflection and Hope” at 4 p.m. in Tilson Auditorium. The concert will consist of a total of nine songs; five sung by the choir, two played by the band, one played by the orchestra, and one song played together. “We are trying to make a distinct American tone for people who have lost loved ones during 9/11,” said Roby George, the director of bands. The event will include a commemorative slide show that recalls the events of the day ends with pictures that portray hope and recovery. George and Scott Buchanan, the choir director, have worked together as artisitic directors. “Honoring the day respectfully while hoping that the people who have lost loved ones can heal through prayer and healing is what I am aiming for,” George said. “I know that this is a personal
day for Scott, he lost relatives or friends in New York.” At 9 p.m., a candlelight vigil is scheduled in Dede Plaza. Rev. Jason Harshbarger will be present to speak to the audience. People who attend will be given a candle to hold in silence around the fountain in remembrance of Sept. 11. After a few poems the audience will walk around campus with the candles in complete silence. Order of Omega, Student Government Association, and the Union Board are sponsoring this event. T-shirts can be purchased for $6 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday. Proceeds will go to a Sept. 11 relief fund to benefit families affected by the attacks. “This is going to be a big event and we want as many people to come out for the 10th year anniversary,” said Natalie Brewster, a grad student in student affairs and higher education. Meanwhile, the Terre Haute location of the Indiana Blood Center will hold a remembrance blood drive Sunday from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Fairbanks Park, located near the banks of the Wabash River on First Street. Donors must present a photo ID. The blood will be used to supply over 60 hospitals throughout the state.
Whether sprucing up a city park in Indianapolis, rehabilitating a school in Greentown or helping tornado victims two states away, service is an integral part of an Indiana State University education. When it comes to university support for service learning, Indiana State ranks fourth in the country among national universities in this year’s Washington Monthly College Guide. The ranking is based on the level of staff, courses and financial aid in support of civic engagement by students. It is the highest ranking of any Indiana institution. The ranking of 258 national universities by the bi-monthly publication of U.S. politics and government assesses the level of staff, courses and financial aid in support of service. Indiana State ranks 32nd in the nation in student community service participation and hours served, also the highest in the state. “Unlike U.S. News and World Report and similar guides,” Washington Monthly writes in its September/October issue, “this (guide) asks not what colleges can do for you, but what colleges are doing for the country. Are they educating low-income students, or just catering to the affluent? Are they improving the quality of their teaching, or ducking accountability for it? Are they trying to become more productive?”
Strengthening Indiana State’s commitment to community engagement is a key element of the university’s five-year strategic plan. Two years into the plan, the Washington Monthly ranking shows the university is making significant progress, said ISU President Dan Bradley. “Indiana State is proud of the many ways our students, faculty and staff are using their talents and knowledge to help others,” Bradley said. “This is a key component of an Indiana State University education, and it is exciting to see a college ranking system that values this important work.” In the past year, service learning projects for Indiana State students have included: • A university-wide effort with faculty, staff and alumni to paint and clean-up Riverside Park in Indianapolis • Education majors joining with students from other colleges and universities to help renovate facilities at Greentown Junior/Senior High School • 18 students helped with clean-up and relief efforts following the devastating tornado in Joplin, Mo. • Dozens of students took part in Alternative Spring Break, volunteering in New Orleans to help “Katrina’s Kids,” children who survived the 2005 hurricane; in Pensacola, Fla. with the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration and Community Service project to assist areas hit by the 2010 oil spill; and in Haysi, Va. To help low-income
rural communities with a variety of needs. • A project by two senior nursing students to develop a resource directory and provide playground equipment for a homeless women’s shelter in Terre Haute. “These are just a few of the many ways students at Indiana State University give back to the community, state and nation,” said Nancy Rogers, associate vice president for community engagement and experiential learning. “We introduce students to the university’s commitment to service from the time they first arrive on campus. Just last month, more than 500 incoming freshmen volunteered to serve community agencies in Terre Haute on Donaghy Day, a day devoted to community engagement on the last day before classes start for the fall semester.” Service is one of three categories Washington Monthly considers in its rankings. The others are social mobility - the percentage of graduates compared against the expected percentage based on SAT scores and the proportion of students eligible for Pell grants - and research. Indiana State’s overall ranking is 78th, placing it among the top third nationally and second among Indiana schools. Only Notre Dame (16th) is ranked higher. Other national universities in the state, and their rankings, are Purdue (79), Indiana (108), Ball State (221), IUPUI (231).
Funding available for academic travel Faculty and undergraduate students planning course-related travel in the U.S. can now receive funding for trips. The university is currently accepting funding proposals for the 2011-2012 academic year. Course-related travel is a short-term, facultyled experience integrating travel with an on-campus academic course. Those include presentations at professional meetings and visiting sites to conduct research or engage with professionals and
experts in the field. The deadline for fall applications is Oct. 1 and spring applications are due Dec. 1. Proposals will be reviewed upon submission. Copies of the forms have been sent to all department chairs. Anyone with questions can contact Chris Olsen, chair of the Department of History, at 2372710 or John Conant, chair of the Department of Economics at 237-2160.

ISU prof: Arab views of U.S. softening Nick Hedrick News Editor
Arab sentiment toward the U.S., while still somewhat negative, has evolved since Sept. 11, 2001, an ISU history professor said. Robert Hunter, who has lived in and written extensively about the Middle East, cited this year’s Arab Spring revolutions and poverty in the Arab world as reasons for a less negative perception of the United States. Indeed, a recent Pew Research Center poll indicates Muslim Americans are increasingly more supportive of the U.S. “war on terror.” Pew’s “2011 Muslim American Survey,” released last month, finds that 43 percent of Muslim Americans say the U.S. combat efforts are “sincere.” That compares to 26 percent in 2007, during the troop surge in Iraq. It was a different story the day terrorists rammed hijacked airliners into the World Trade Center and Pentagon. “Many Arabs perceived the U.S. as an imperial power in pursuit of its own power, which includes, of course, oil,” Hunter said. Hunter said the U.S.’s “boots on the ground” approach in Iraq and Afghanistan fueled the earlier imperial impression. Such animosity had its roots during the 1991 Persian Gulf War, when the U.S. established military bases on Arab soil for the first time.
The Gulf War, he said, attributed to the rise of alQaeda, the terror group also responsible for the 1998 African embassy bombings and the 2000 attack on the U.S.S. Cole. Those events were precursors to Sept. 11. “For Americans, 9-1-1 is the explosion that came out of the blue,” Hunter said. “’Oh, my God, what happened?’” Hunter said that the attacks, combined with curiosity about Middle Eastern culture, led to a rise in enrollment in his courses, which mainly surveys Middle Eastern history. In the aftermath of Sept. 11, Hunter said his students did not express sentiments toward retaliation against Arab nations, instead seeking to understand what role Islamic extremism played in the attacks. Pew Center’s August survey found that Muslim Americans continue to largely reject extremism. Of Muslim Americans surveyed, 34 percent found no support for extremism among Muslims living in the U.S. However, just over 20 percent say there is at least a fair amount of support for extremism among Muslim Americans. Among the general public, according to Pew, 40 percent of Americans surveyed perceive a great deal or fair amount of support for extremism in the Muslim American community. Pew Center’s poll was based on telephone interviews with 1,033 Muslims in the United States between April 14 and July 22.
Former editor recalls 9/11 issue Chris Sweeney Reporter
ISU alumnus Matt Miller vividly recalls the clear blue Tuesday no one has forgotten. Now a Spanish teacher at Turkey Run High School in Marshall, Ind., Miller was editor-in-chief of the Indiana Statesman on Sept. 11, 2001. He oversaw the quick production of a special issue headlining the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, D.C., as well as the local response to the tragedy. “I remember walking from my Spanish class in Holmstedt to my next class which was located in the basement of the science building.” Miller said. “I walked in, and there was only one other student. When the third entered, that’s when I was told something bad had happened.” Miller raced to the Statesman newsroom, located at the time on the seventh floor of the Hulman Memorial Student Union. Staff and students huddled around a small TV, quietly watching the events unfold. In what he described as “the single biggest effort in campus journalism history,” the student staff met to discuss how to re-
spond to the tragedy. Reporters and photographers were sent throughout campus to gather reaction. Work began between 10 and 11 a.m., as the nation continued to process the morning’s images. “We knew we only had about two and a half hours to pull together a publication, Miller said. “We really wanted to distribute mass quantities to students in the student union, and with lunch quickly wrapping up, we knew we didn’t have a lot of time.” The issue was produced on double-sided, eleven-by-seventeen sheets of paper. One side was devoted to university and city reaction; the other summarized national context of the events. “We would think we were almost finished, when another reporter would bring us more updated information, so more tweaking had to be done,” Miller said. By 2 p.m., the issue had been handdistributed throughout campus and Terre Haute. The aftermath of the attacks was prominently featured in later issues that week. A couple of days after the special issue, the Statesman printed a full-page sized American flag, encouraging the campus to display it in tribute to the nation.

What if...
What are your thoughts on our 9/11 special? Share them in a letter to the editor.
As the tenth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001 approaches, we grapple with the hard reality that our nation has transformed. Has that change been for better or worse? As the years roll forward and we commemorate those who lost their lives that day, are we lighting the candles for them or for our ravaged country? In some respects, the nation has matured. We’ve color-coated and increased our security. We’ve reevaluated our travel methods, altering the face of the airline industry. We’ve come together on our crusade for freedom and normalcy. But by doing so, we’ve also distanced ourselves from the rest of the world. Our immense patriotism has faded and given way to radical paranoia. Ten years ago, we were determined to overcome. If we allowed ourselves to be a scared and bruised nation, we were letting the terrorists win. Today, however, we stand in line at our airports and racially profile nearly anyone around us with dark skin or foreign accents. We are quick to place blame on other countries and political figures for our shortcomings. Yes, there was a positive outcome after Sept. 11, but at what cost? Is the price of peace of mind and heightened patriotism worth nearly 3,000 lives? We, at the Indiana Statesman, think not.
It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost 10 years since the world-changing events on Sept. 11, 2011. I bet every one of you remembers exactly where you were and what you were doing that day. Even for those who weren’t personally affected by knowing someone in New York that Tuesday, Sept. 11 impacted all of our lives in some way. And yet, what if Sept. 11 had never happened? What if, instead of those four planes crashing, the planes made it to their destinations and the twin towers still stood? The answer to this question is incredibly hard to fathom. We’re all so interconnected; small, insignificant actions can have huge consequences. When those actions become much larger, the consequences can vary by even wider degrees. To start off, let’s look at the Bush presidency. After Sept. 11, there was huge support to “do something about it” and few protested actions in Afghanistan and even the beginning of our involvement in Iraq. This action was a major defining factor during Bush’s first term, and support was high enough that he was re-elected in 2004. But what if there was no Iraq invasion, and Bush didn’t win a re-election? Someone else would have won in 2004, and everyone in 2008 wouldn’t have been fighting to distance themselves from being compared with Bush. Would Obama have rallied all the voters sick of the war and swept into office in 2008? Running against an incumbent pres-
Aurora Dreyling Columnist
ident would be difficult, and Obama may not have even run for another four years. Who would our president be now? Looking at the financial situation we’re dealing with now, what would that look like without Sept. 11? A lot of the causes of the recession were in place years before then, and the Bush tax cuts likely would still have happened. But without the war, we may not have spent all that money to fight it (it’s always possible that we would’ve been involved in some other war, but let’s assume not) and our debt and deficits would be smaller. Without Bush and Obama as president during the economic crisis, whoever was president might have taken drastically different actions. Beyond our own country, what would the international scene look like? Many who look at our invasion of Iraq point to oil as the real reason. So what if we had gotten involved in the area and our access to oil changed, worsened? We could be looking at $5-$6 a gallon at the pump, if not higher. Maybe with high oil prices, the public demand and will to change over to other sources of energy would go up. September 11 forever changed our nation. We can only guess at how the world and our country would be different if those planes had not been hijacked. Historians of the future will surely speculate endlessly. But maybe we are asking the wrong question. Instead of looking at how our lives would be different, perhaps we should ask-What do we do now?

....Sept. 11 never happened? Erin Friar Columnist
“News time!” exclaimed Mr. Livengood, my third grade teacher, followed by the high pitches of girl’s screams and boy’s yells. Little did we know, we were about to witness very different screams and yells. Bright-eyed and innocent, I sat in a ceramic desk witnessing the horrors of the terrorist attack that shook The United States on September 11, 2001. Ten years later, I sit in a similar desk, in a deeper reflection of that day. What was happening? Why was everyone so sad? What was a terrorist? Over the past decade, of course, my peers and I have learned the answers to these troubling questions we held at such a young age. However, one inquiry left behind in the dust of terrible recollection remains. “What if Sept. 11 never happened?” The response, undoubtedly, is inclusive of social, political, economic and personal natures. Socially, Americans were widely affected. Although I make an honest effort to not be frightened by a Middle Eastern face walking near me, my instincts fail me. Even ten years later, prejudice appears to be prevalent and perhaps growing about the population. However, we who are predisposed, point to 9/11 and feel justified. The issue here is, the giant proportions of the Middle Eastern people who are not terrorists are being wrongly judged. Surely, if Sept. 11 had never happened, this racism would not be quite as prevalent. Another area of interest is perhaps political. When re-elected in 2004, George Bush of the
Republican Party ensured the country that the national defense would be strengthened and altered. This promise is very evidently kept in airports to this day, with various metal detectors and employees heavily trained in personality analysis skills. Had Sept. 11 never happened, however, it stands to reason that John Kerry of the Democratic Party could have been elected as president of the United States in the election of 2004. If this had been the case, due to differing social and economic policies, the market crash of 2008 might not have occurred, thus drastically changing the financial picture of America today. Contrastingly, one could say the market was doomed to crash either way, and as short sided as our voting population is, either party would have taken blame. In this case, if Kerry had been put on trial for the financial crisis, perhaps Barack Obama would not have been elected in 2008, leading our country into the conservative hands of John McCain. The final and more personal matter to address is how we, as individuals, would be contrasting to what we are currently if Sept. 11 had never happened. The obvious answer lends itself to those who lost loved ones in the attack. Children would have their mothers. Husbands would have their wives, and the lives taken away would be contributing to American society today. It is always strange and intriguing to ask “What if?” Would Americans hold less racism? Would Barack Obama be the President of the United States? Would the economy have flopped? Would the widow still hold her husband? Above all these, remains the question: What if Sept. 11 had never happened?

Angelina Ritter Columnist
Have you ever sat there and caught yourself wondering, “What if September 11, 2001 had never happened?” Would the world be any different? Would something else have happened instead? Would we be a peaceful country? I caught myself thinking about all the possibilities there could be if Sept. 11 had never happened. The world probably wouldn’t be much different than what it is now. Thanks to the terrorists who made Sept. 11 one of the most tragic incidents in history, we now have ridiculous security in airports, and innocent people being judged just for the way they look as they walk the streets let alone an airport. But truthfully, wouldn’t something else have happened? Even if those terrorists hadn’t crash those planes into the Twin Towers on Sept. 11, someone else would have done something else just as terrible. There are people out there that believe that they are supposed to sacrifice their own life for their “religion.” So in that case people are most likely thinking of all kinds of ways to cause others heartache and pain. I believe that, even if Sept. 11 had not happened, it would take a short time for someone else to come up with something just as devastating.

There is never going to be a time when we are a “peaceful country” with or without Sept. 11. We are constantly in a feud with different countries, and it was just a matter of time that we would be in war with another country for a different reason. Americans have always felt like the ones “in charge,” so to speak, like they are superior to all the other countries, but after the Sept. 11 attack, we were knocked down a few notches. We now feel uneasy and nervous when we see “suspicious” people, especially in an airport. It’s a shame to see that a total of 2,996 deaths didn’t change as much as we believe it has. Yes, many people were scarred for life thanks to this day, but so were many people during the Holocaust or even Pearl Harbor. It just goes to show you that our country has had many tragedies over the course of our history, and things still manage to keep happening. No matter how much we think we are on top of the game or how prepared we are, people find a way to bring harm to us. It is tough to think about how things would be if 9/11 had never happened. It was such a memorable day that had such a huge impact on the entire world, so to think what it would be like today is really on you. The way you see the world may be completely different depending on if you are a pessimistic or optimistic kind of person, but unfortunately no one can tell you how life would be without this tragedy.

Counseling Center supports National Suicide Prevention Week with movie and discussion
Alexa Larkin Features Editor
Upcoming Events: • Sorority Bid Day Sunday 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. Dede Plaza • Reflection and Hope Student Ensemble Series Sunday 4 p.m. Tilson Auditorium • 9/11 Vigil Sunday 9 p.m. Dede Plaza • Student Volunteer Fair Wednesday 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Dede Plaza
In an effort to support National Suicide Prevention Week, the ISU Student Counseling Center sponsored a documentary viewing and group discussion. “The Truth About Suicide: Real Stories of Depression in College” was shown on Thursday in the library. The short film was followed by a question and answer format group discussion. The event was held to promote theCounseling Center to students, said Mike Mendez, a counselor at the center. The documentary was developed by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and filmed on various college campuses. “The aim of this 27-minute film is to present a recognizable picture of depression and other problems associated with suicide, as they are commonly experienced by college students and other young adults,” states the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention website. “We thought [showing this film] would be a good way to inform people about suicide and what signs to look for,” said Jessica Richert, also a counselor. The Student Counseling Center is open to all registered ISU students.
Students may come to the center for any problems they are experiencing, Mendez said. The center has masters and doctoral level counselors, licensed psychologists and a psychiatrist available to students in need. Students can find the center on the third floor of the Student Services Building. Students interested in the services offered can call to set up a “first contact” appointment. The next event the Counseling Center plans to hold will be on Oct. 11, National Coming Out Day.
New options discussed for future of Greek life housing Jessica Neff Reporter
In Pickerl Hall at 5 p.m. Thursday night, a small-group housing meeting was called for members of the Greek community and other students and faculty that will be affected by the upcoming Lincoln Quadrangle renovation. There are two contracting firms that are collaborating for this renovation, Gund Partnership based out of Cambridge, Mass. and VPS Architecture based out of Evansville, Ind. These two firms have sent out representatives to convey their ideas to students living on campus, as well as to gain insight into current lifestyles. They have a few rough ideas about what the layout will be. There is the Village Plan, which divides the quads into groups with one shared floor and three other floors with bedrooms. The main floor will include a multi-purpose room, a television lounge, a shared kitchen, a restroom, an office, and four single bedrooms. The three floors above will contain the bedrooms and bathrooms. They are suggesting 12 single rooms with six bathrooms to a floor. There are two designs; one includes the six bathrooms in a hall-
way setting where you would leave your room to go to the bathroom and the other design has two rooms sharing a bathroom within the confines of their bedroom. These plans are all in the initial stages, but the firms and Indiana State staff hope to have this project started within the next year. The designing and construction is estimated to be a two-year process. There is another project that was briefly touched on that is headed by CSO Architects. The project is another small housing project, but neither the place of construction or design has been publicized. CSO Architects, based out of Indianapolis, Ind,, are heading this project and were at this meeting in order to get some feedback about the current and future living styles of Indiana State students. The firms want to have as much input from students as possible. The firms will be returning to campus many more times throughout the year. If students have any ideas for the layout and what should or should not be included in the Lincoln Quad renovation, they should email Rex Kendall, director of Residential Life, at rex.kendall@indstate.edu

Student transitions from MSU to ISU, finds herself pleased with the change Joshua Julian Reporter
When transitioning from one university to another, many students are unaware of what to expect. A new ISU graduate student, however, was pleasantly surprised with what she found here. Kristina Bird, no relation to Larry, is a firstyear graduate student, what she calls a “Greshman,” in the English department. Bird obtained her undergraduate degree in English and creative writing from Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan. Indiana State University is a relatively small campus when compared to MSU, Bird realized during the Graduate Orientation day on campus. At MSU, it would not be uncommon for her to take an hour to trek from one side of the campus to the other, sometimes longer. Here at ISU, Bird was pleased to find that walking from the north side of campus to the south side took her only fifteen minutes. Another difference that Bird immediately noticed was the parking accommodation. As nearly any commuting student at ISU will say, the parking here causes a few problems for some. Bird, however, found the situation to be different sltogether. At MSU, parking was
essentially nonexistent. In fact, she said, you could spend as much time looking for a parking space as you could walking from one end of campus to the other. Even once you found the elusive spot, Bird said, you were often much farther away from campus than you were to begin with. When asked about other differences between our campus and that of MSU, Bird said that the admissions process here was much easier. The office staff proved themselves to be helpful and friendly during her experience. “They treated me like I was important, not just another student they had to deal with,” Bird said. “More from day one? I say thumbs up to that.” Bird’s discoveries did not end on campus. Terre Haute seems like less of a college town than East Lansing did, Bird said, the economy of Terre Haute does not seem to begin and end with the student demographic like it did in East Lansing. Terre Haute has a much more Midwestern feel to it, said Bird. It wasn’t until she moved here that she saw a family order food from McDonald’s and proceed to pray over it before consuming it, a very surprising to sight for her. While pursuing her graduate degree in English, Bird is concentrating on creative writing.
On the topic of fiction, Bird believes that young adult fiction has a very significant role to play in the lives of the people who read the genre, and that it’s at a purpose. She thinks that, while love-struck vampires and the girls who obsess over them may not be the best things to read, young adult novels have the ability to help form a moral and intellectual level in those who are still within a very impressionable age bracket. Bird describes herself as a fairly typical college student. Like most English students, she likes to read and write, citing Chuck Palahniuk as her favorite author. Bird currently works in the ISU Writing Center, but her future career goals are to continue strengthening her writing skills and start work on a manuscript to send out to potential publishers. Her central goal, after finishing her master’s degree, is to write things that inspire people to read and write things of their own, and she plans on becoming a teacher. Reading and writing should be readily accessible to everyone and should foster the creativity that all people inherently have, Bird said. In response to the many t-shirts being worn on campus that say “Proud to be a Tree,” Kristina would like to say that she, too, loves trees of every type, especially Sycamores.
Grad student Kristina Bird recognizes differences in her college experience while transferring from Michigan State, the ninth largest university in America, to ISU. Parking availability and the varying campus hospitality are just a few differences Bird notices. (Submitted photo)

ISU Master Plan renovates, moves campus buildings Alexa Larkin Features Editor
This ISU campus will continue to see changes this year as the Campus Master Plan is carried out. Construction on Fifth Street was recently finished, which allows a better flow of traffic through campus. A change that students may have noticed, however, is that the parking lot south of the Commons, Lot 5, is currently closed. This parking lot and the building behind it, which housed the Family and Consumer Science department, are undergoing renovations to become the new Welcome Center and campus visitor parking lot. The current Welcome Center, located in Erickson Hall, will be moving into the Family and Consumer Science building by mid-May of next year, said Kevin Runion, associate vice president for Facilities Management. The future of Erickson Hall will mimic the past as it is returned to its original purpose, a residence hall. After the Welcome Center is moved into the new location, renovations will begin on Erickson in June. These changes are all a part of the Campus Master Plan, which was accepted by the Board of Trustees in December 2009. The plan has a 20-year planning horizon, which includes renovations and new construction for four different components, Runion said. The Welcome Center move is part of the plan for Administrative Functions, which also includes the new ISU Foundation office. The third aspect of the this component are the administration offices in Rankin and
Parson Hall. The Rankin patio was replaced, and a new statue will be dedicated there on Oct. 30. The three other components include Academic Facilities, Residential Life and Athletics. Another project, which is part of the Academic Facilities, is the renovation of the old Federal Building in downtown. The former Federal Building is set to reopen as the new home of the Donald W. Scott College of Business in June. This project had a budget of $20 million, half of which was funded by private donations to the ISU Foundation, stated an ISU press release. The Scott College of Business is currently located in the Statesman Towers. After the college is relocated during the summer, next fall the towers will be destroyed, Runion said. The demolition of the towers is about a $2.5 million project. The ISU Master Plan was developed in conjunction with the Terre Haute riverSCAPE plan and will move parts of the campus across Third Street, toward the Wabash River. Area near the river is currently being demolished in order to eventually accommodate the athletic aspect of the Master Plan. A new entrance to campus will also be constructed at the corner of Third and Chestnut streets. The entry way will look similar to the signs on the corner of Seventh and Cherry streets. To develop the Residential Life component of the Master Plan, ISU is working with Thompson Thirft for possible off-campus housing in downtown. Other possibilities include low profile, three to four story buildings housing about 40 students.

The Drury Inn/ASICS Volleyball Challenge took place on Saturday and Sunday in the ISU Arena. Day One The ISU volleyball team dominated Savannah State University throughout their first game of the day. The Sycamores started the game off with a commanding 7-0 lead. The Sycamores went on to win the first set 25-8. In the second set, the Sycamores lead 12-2 going into the first timeout. The set finished with a final score of the Sycamores winning 25-5. The crowd’s energy reflected the play of the Sycamores, roaring chants were lead by the men of Pike Kappa Alpha. “We are going to try to come out to every home game that we possibly can and possibly a few road games as well,” said Spencer Timberlake, president of Pike Kappa Alpha. “The more support they get I feel they better they’ve been playing. They’ve been playing phenomenal this weekend, and we just love
to support the girls.” Matching the first set’s score, 25-8, the Sycamores won the third set and the game. The game ended with a service ace from freshman middle blocker Samantha Kersting. The Sycamores defensive play held the Tigers to single digits in all three of their sets. “The emphasis was on ball control. We wanted to go in and control the match,” said ISU Women’s Volleyball coach, Traci Dahl. The crowd passionately cheered on the Sycamores as the men of Pike Kappa Alpha made a high five tunnel for the Sycamores. “We enjoy getting them fired up; they understand us as coach’s body language. We keep consistent energy with repetitive drills. We work on confidence every day just by working repetitive drills; learning how to do things you know, learning how to manipulate the ball” said Dahl. In the Sycamores’ second game of the Drury Inn/ ASICS Volleyball Challenge, they faced Western Illinois University. Going into the night game versus the Leathernecks, Dahl wanted to maintain control as the Sycamores
did in the previous game versus Savannah State. “Western is a very good team, and they’ve got very good players,” said Dahl. “We need to go out and do our thing and do it well.”

Women finish first, men second in cross country season opener Richelle Kimble Reporter
The ISU womens and mens cross country teams opened their 2011 season at the Evansville Mid-America Opener on Saturday with first and second place finishes. With the courses shortened from 5k to 4k for the women and from 8k to 6k for the men, the season opener provided a glimpse into the Sycamores’ seasons. Senior Kacie Klem led the lady trees to their victory with a first place finish in a time of 14:51. “We had an incredible start to the season,” Klem said. “I couldn’t be more pleased with our team’s performance. I believe we will do great things throughout the season.” Senior Kelsie Slater was
the second runner for the lad Sycamores, finishing third overall with a time of 15:01. Trailing Slater were four more Sycamores: sophomores Jessica Zangmeister (15:15) and Val Burns (15:23), freshman Nicole Lucas (15:30), and senior Kristy Twitchell (15:30). The women claimed six of the top seven finishes. “We executed the race strategy well,” head women’s coach John Gartland said. “We dominated the meet against two teams who had beaten us a year ago.” ISU women finished with 19 points, a clear win over their closest opponent, Louisville, who finished with 51 points. Evansville took third with 65, and Kentucky Wesleyan was fourth with 119 points. The men’s cross country team finished second to Louisville with 39 points to the Cardinals’ 32. The men claimed their
second place title while holding out four varsity runners, all who placed in the top 11 in the 2010 Missouri Valley Conference Championship. “I believe we accomplished what we set out to in this opening meet,” said men’s head coach John McNichols. “We finished second to Louisville, but it was a rather different situation for us.” Senior Tyler Kent led the Sycamore men with a time of 18:48, placing him third behind Louisville’s top two finishers. Freshman Milton Brinza placed sixth with a time of 19:05, junior Brandon Query placed 8th in 19:12, and freshman Tristan Selby was 9th in 19:17. The Indiana State Sycamores will be back in action at Indiana University on Friday, September 16 for the 2011 Indiana Intercollegiate meet.

Women’s volleyball finishes third in tournament CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13
During the game against Western Illinois ,freshman middle blocker Kyla Thomas got the game on the way with an opening kill. The game was very competitive going back and forth between the schools for the first six points. Then Western Illinois started to pull away. The Sycamores ended up losing the first set by a score of 25-17. In the second set, Western Illinois took a 5-0 lead to start the game. The Sycamores put up a tough fight in the second set resulting in a 2520 loss. The third and final set would be the most exciting. It was a very close competitive game throughout; both schools were going back and forth on scoring. The game tied 23-23, and the set points continued to go back and forth. Neither team was willing to call it quits. However the Leathernecks left the ISU Arena victorious 28-26 winning all three sets.
Day Two The second day of play for the Sycamores in the Drury Inn/Asics Classic pitted the team against Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville. The first set of play was competitive as neither team allowed the other to be no more than three points ahead. However, the Cougars won scoring three consecutive points downing the Sycamores 23-25. The second set ISU took 25-23. Once the Sycamores secured the lead at 3-2, they managed to keep that momentum going to the final set never ceding the lead. As the game moved into the third set, the Sycamores got off to a very slow start and were unable to recover. The Cougars would lead by as large as 11 points before the set ended with a loss for the Sycamores 17-25. During the fourth and final set, the two teams went back and forth early on before the Cougars began to slowly pull away. ISU would
continue to play catch up to the very end but falling short losing 22-25, with the Cougars winning 3-1. “I do think they are learning a little bit of fight, but we can’t get down by 11,” Dahl said. “They have to come out strong the whole entire time.” The Sycamores competed this weekend without junior middle-blocker Shea Doran on the court. Doran fractured her pinky finger and was unable to play in this tournament but is expected to return to the court this weekend in New Hampshire. Dahl said having Doran unable to compete may have effected team chemistry as Doran was a big part of the team’s offense. The Sycamores are back in action on Saturday when they travel to Durham, N.H. to compete in the New Hampshire Tournament. The team plays the University of New Hampshire and the University of Connecticuit.
