Balloon release to celebrate the birthday of fallen Alpha Phi sister Kristi Sanders News Editor
In honor of what would have been Emily Herzog’s 20th birthday, her Alpha Phi sisters are commemorating her birthday with a balloon release at Alpha Phi Greek housing on Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. A freshman at ISU who had just switched her major to elementary education, Herzog was killed on May 13 when a speeding semitractor-trailer failed to negotiate a curve, turning over onto her Mustang. She was originally from Bridgeton, Indiana, where she worked and went to the covered bridge every year. Herzog’s sisters plan to have a memorial and gathering at ISU then a gravesite serenade afterwards. She is survived by her parents and an older sister, as well as numerous friends, family and a boyfriend. Marcilena Nodal, a junior human development and family studies major, was Herzog’s big sister — or mentor — in their sorority. “She joined Alpha Phi last fall during rush,” Nodal said. “I took her as a little (sister) about a month after this and we have been really close since. (Herzog) was always hanging out and being social. She was also an active member in the sorority.”
The memorial service is a way for her family, friends and sisters to remember her on her birthday, Nodal said. “Blue was her favorite color so we will release blue balloons during the ceremony,” Nodal said. “(Herzog) enjoyed every day and lived life like any day could be her last.” Allison Herzog, Emily’s mother, is also a student at ISU — a senior majoring in human development and family studies. “Emily was planning her life,” Allison Herzog said. “She just switched majors to teach. She loves children and wanted to be a second or third grade teacher.” Herzog was involved not only in her sorority but also held a job at Journeys where she could be by her favorite shoes, Converse. Her mother described Herzog as a social butterfly who was friends with anyone. A song by Wiz Khalifa, “See you Again,” was a favorite of Herzog’s before she passed. In May, Allison Herzog will graduate, but she says Herzog will be there in spirit. “Emily has impacted numerous individuals in her short 19 years here on Earth; but you can bet she’s singing with the angels and dancing in the sky,” Allison Herzog said. “Gone but not forgotten: our Princess Angel Emily.”

Boose arrested Kristi Sanders News Editor
Terre Haute Police Department arrested Alec Boose Wednesday. Terre Haute Police Department stopped a car for another agency while Boose was in the vehicle. Boose was involved in previous incidents near campus. It is believed the incident on Sunday evening was in retaliation for a fight and shooting incident that occurred in the early morning hours of the same day, also near Fifth and Elm Streets. There were no injuries in either incident. He has been charged with criminal recklessness and criminal confinement, both Felonies, and misdemeanor intimidation. Bond is set at $50,000, no 10 percent. He appeared in county court division 6 on Thursday at 1:30 p.m.

PIKE moves forward with plans for expansion Morgan Gallas Reporter
The Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity is in the early stages of construction for a new chapter house for the members. The fraternity, nicknamed PIKE, has been preparing for this new addition for many years until the funds became available. The current as well as the new extension will be located on the 800 block of Seventh Street in Terre Haute. “The preparation process has extended over a 16-year period with the original purchase of the Chapter House followed by the acquisition of six adjacent properties,” said David Stowe, the treasurer of the Theta Omicron of Pi Kappa Alpha Housing Corporation. “The next phase of the project was the hiring of the architect to develop the vision we had for the new Chapter House addition.” Once the architect created what PIKE was looking for, the group hired a firm to conduct

a feasibility study to make sure that the project could be completed. “(The study) was necessary in order to gauge the level of support from our alumni for the completion of the project,”
Stowe said. “The feasibility study results clearly indicated the alumni were in support of this endeavor.” The group completed the silent stage March 2015 and has since moved into the public
phase of the capital campaign. “After securing sufficient financial support (from) our alumni, we were able to secure a commercial loan to start

Camera installation takes up parking spaces across campus Kristi Sanders News Editor
Parking lots will be crowded while the basic structures of new cameras are installed in every lot on campus. With the new initiative to improve surveillance in the parking lots to help increase security for students, faculty and staff on campus, there will be parking spaces closed to allow this installation process to begin. The lots that currently are be-
ing worked on are Lots R, 13 and G. Lori Elkins, the public safety assistant director of parking and traffic, says these parking spaces should be available soon. “The construction is for the exterior camera project,” Elkins said. “The construction should be done in these lots by Thursday but they will be moving on to others once finished.” The construction currently taking place is laying cable underground, setting up wiring for the cameras, brace ways for the
camera and other details to make sure the system is ready to go. Christopher Adkins, a sophomore communication major, said he isn’t loving the idea of even more construction. “Only a couple weeks (of construction) isn’t too bad,” Adkins said. “At least it’s not a two-month project, that would be kind of ridiculous.” Patrick Teeters, an electrical engineer for facilities management, is very involved on the project. “We are currently setting up
the basics for the cameras in each lot on campus,” Teeters said. “We don’t have the cameras yet though so we will be coming back to each spot to attach the camera and make sure it is working order.” The cameras won’t be arriving for two or three weeks, Teeters said. “I do believe they should’ve done it all at once,” Adkins said. “They could’ve waited to have everything for construction.” “We plan to have the project finished by Oct. 15,” Teeters said.
ISU Library makes room for new materials Emily Jordan Reporter
Cunningham Memorial Library has begun removing the outdated books from the collection and creating shelf space for incoming materials. The library sends out a list of materials that are being considered for removal to every library representative in every department. Professors and other faculty members also receive this list in case they would like to add their input in selection. These materials being removed are out of style, out of date, duplicates, damaged or simply not used in circulation. The representatives go through their department list and weed out the materials that are not needed. Dr. Joy O’Keefe, department of biology director, spoke about the process she goes through in determining which materials are discarded and which materials are then brought in. “Statistics are key when determining what should go,” O’Keefe said. “If a book is not used often or has a newer edition, it might be discarded.”
PIKE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 phase 1: construction,” Stowe said. The residential wings of the new building will be completed first, followed by phase 1A: the renovation of the existing Chapter House. While the old house had no pressing issues and is structurally sound, a new house is necessary because there are currently not enough bedrooms for the brothers. “The current structure houses 13 men,” Stowe said. “All of the structures on our property house 29 men. Once phase one of the project is completed, 23 men will be housed in the residential wings of the Chapter House expansion project. Once phase two is completed, the new structure will house 48 men.” The current house will not

be torn down but instead converted to fit the needs of the fraternity. “The existing Chapter House will be reconfigured to include a lecture hall, library, chapel, social hall and TV room,” Stowe said. “All existing bedrooms will be relocated into the new residential wing.” Both houses will be connected into one large lodge. “The architect is Holder Design, and the developer is Keymark Development,” Stowe said. The total cost of the project will be $3.5 million. “The chapter membership pays a $75 assessed fee per semester to support the construction project,” Stowe said. “The most significant financial contributors to this endeavor include alumni, family members and friends of the Theta Omicron of Pi Kappa Alpha

Both men can offer more information on being a part of fraternity life at ISU. “It’s (easy) to be lost in a project of this nature,” Stowe said. “At the end of the day, what truly matters is not the house itself, but the men who live in it. We’ve been able to gain the support we’ve had due to our belief in the importance of sticking to our mission, vision and values. It’s evident that this model created well-rounded and loyal men for this fraternity and university, and we’re blessed to be a part of this proud organization.”
can, in which a small portion of those proceeds goes into the library’s fund. The materials that are not sold are either recycled or sent to third-world countries. Last year 13,000 duplicates were removed from ISU’s library and sent to Better World Books. Although ISU does not get an abundance of money from donating all of its outdated or damaged materials, the library’s budget not only covers operation cost and salaries, but the budget is split between buying electronic materials, such as databases or magazine subscriptions and buying print monographs. Many students were asked if they knew about the library clear-out and few of them had any idea something like this actually happens. Macy Osbon, a first-year nursing major, was surprised more students don’t know about the donations. “It doesn’t really surprise me that they do it,” Osbon said. “But it’s crazy we don’t hear anything about it.” The list of materials that are being considered for removal will be made available after other departments have had their pick.

Sycamores set for season opener Zach Rainey Reporter Football season is upon us again and if you’re sticking around campus this Labor Day weekend and are looking for something to do, look no further than Memorial Stadium. The Indiana State football team hosts Butler for the first game of the season on Saturday and the two instate FCS squads will go toe-to-toe in what is expected to be a warm first weekend on the gridiron. Butler enters the year coming off a 4-7 record in 2014. Don’t take Butler lightly, however. They are returning their starting quarterback Matt Shiltz, who missed the final five games of the season after being injured in the first quarter in their game against Campbell. If he kept producing at the rate he was going when he got hurt, Shiltz would have finished the year with 22 touchdowns to 10 or 11 interceptions and around 2,800 yards. The Bulldogs also return their leading rusher from a year ago, Sam Schrader. While Schrader wasn’t the team’s lead back at the start of the season, he was by the season’s finish. Off just 74 carries last season, Schrader amassed 604 yards. Schrader split carries with Guy Dibalsamo, who only had three fewer carries than Schrader, but ran for only 311 yards. While their leading receiver graduated, Butler still brings back their second leading receiver and twotime All-PFL Honorable Mention, Marque Martin-Hayes. Martin-
Hayes had some good games last season as the team’s No. 2 receiver, including a 10-reception 159-yard game in a 38-3 win over Taylor University. Martin-Hayes stayed hot the next week, catching seven passes for 119 yards in a 35-7 loss to Jacksonville. With Shiltz back at the helm, Martin-Hayes could be in for a breakout year. Butler’s sack leader from a year ago graduated but the line will still be effective when it comes to getting to the quarterback. They return defensive lineman Nick McInally, who totaled four sacks last year, along with linebacker David Starkey, who had two sacks of his own. The secondary took the biggest hit of all, by graduating their top two defensive backs, which combined for almost half of the team’s interceptions last season. Jacob Balder will most likely be the team’s No. 1 defensive back, while Zachary LaRoche, Justin Krull and Ryan Bradley battle for the other defensive back spots. The last time the Sycamores played Butler was in the 2011-12 season. They played at Memorial Stadium, where the Sycamores went on to win the game 48-34 behind the 131-yard three-touchdown performance by running back Brock Lough. The Sycamores didn’t have problems throwing the ball either, as quarterback Ronnie Fouch went 1518 for 232 yards and a touchdown. Kickoff on Saturday is scheduled for 3:05 p.m. Video is available through GoSycamores.com with audio available on 95.9 WDKE and 90.7 WZIS.

Indiana State football comes into 2015 season with lofty expectations
Page designed by Alex Modesitt
Rob Lafary Sports Editor
It’s been tradition to not get too excited about the thought of another year of Indiana State University football. With no offense to anyone who has ever donned a Sycamore uniform, many throughout the years have been turned away by the strings of losing records, blowouts and overall lackluster play. But that all changed this time a year ago. With no excitement built up after a 1-11 campaign in 2013 and a disappointing performance in the 2014 season opener at Indiana, ISU head coach Mike Sanford and his squad found themselves to be the beneficiaries of the football gods the rest of the way. A lot of hard work mixed in with a little magic and the Sycamores delivered one of the most memorable seasons to date and finished the year at 8-6, clinching the school’s first FCS playoff berth since 1984 and winning a playoff game for the first time since 1983.
And there’s a good chance those same accomplishments can once again be reached in 2015. For the first time in a long time, the Sycamore faithful finally have something to be excited for when it comes to the gridiron and for good reason. With six starters returning on offense and nine on defense, Coach Sanford and company not only expect to repeat their feats from 2014, but also expect to soar to even greater heights as the new season approaches. “Obviously we went from a 1-11 record to an 8-6 record last year,” Coach Sanford said in an interview on Tuesday evening. “We have higher goals, higher expectations and our goal is to win the Missouri Valley Football Conference championship and to win the national championship. We are continuing to work in that direction and it starts with a huge home game on Saturday against Butler.” The higher expectations are not only built off of last season’s performance but also the team’s strides in the offseason leading up to 2015.
Coach Sanford says his team’s strides since last December rival that of the team’s superb offseason leading up to a year ago. “Our guys have worked hard,” Sanford said. “It goes back to our winter conditioning workouts, which I thought were really good. It goes back to our spring workouts and our summer workouts. We had great summer workouts with great attitudes and efforts. Then of course training camp was great as well leading up to our game week this week.” Familiar faces with a few new ones sprinkled in gives Sanford plenty of personnel to work with en route to the team’s lofty expectations but no group brings more influence than the team’s defense, which returns much of its star power that ultimately made the Sycamores known across the country as a defensive-minded group last season. Led by Preseason First Team All-American linebacker and school-record holder Connor Underwood and Preseason All-MVFC
selections Mark Sewall and Travis Starks in the secondary, ISU has a chance to be one of the premiere defenses in the nation, leaving many in the Sycamore camp anxious to see just what this group is capable of once the season kicks off on Saturday afternoon. “Very excited,” noted Sanford when asked about his thoughts on his team’s defense. “The fact that we have nine guys returning on that side of the ball makes it exciting. Obviously, the defense will be led by Connor Underwood and I think he’s the best outside linebacker in FCS football. We also have safety Mark Sewall who I think is the best safety in the league (MVFC) as well as cornerback Travis Starks who I think is the best corner in the league. Someone who didn’t get much mention is Kendall Walker who is our senior linebacker and leading tackler from a year ago. And then we’ve got Jameer Thurman who is a great player inside and out. Those are the main names I would mention just because they received so much preseason interest.”
“We have higher goals,
higher expectations and our goal is to win the Missouri Valley Football Conference championship and to win the national championship. We are continuing to work in that direction and it starts with a huge home game on Saturday against Butler.”
Mike Sanford, ISU football head coach
“But the good thing is our defensive line is much improved,” Sanford added. “We’ve got Conlan Cassidy back who’ll play both nose and at tackle. We have a healthy Conrrad Nicholls who will be playing this year and then Alec Lyons. I’m really excited about these guys.” At some point though, the defense will have to give way to the offense, but no need to worry. Although mainstay quarterback Mike Perish and starting running back Buck Logan left via graduation, the unit returns a slew of protectors to open up the gaps and playmakers who should have no problem finding the endzone. “We feel like we have more depth on the offensive line,” Sanford said. “The leaders of that group would be Dakota Vermillion at left tackle and James Officer who has moved from guard to center. I like our tight ends … I think Jamar Brown is the best tight end in the conference but we’ve got a really good group of tight ends. Going to our running
backs, expect LeMonte Booker to have a big year as well as Dimitri Taylor who is a very good player and then Roland Genesy is a great addition as a junior college transfer.” “As far as receivers go, I think we have some exciting guys but we don’t have as much depth so we are a little bit different in that department than we were last year,” Sanford noted. “We have Gary Owens back, we’ve got Rob Tonyan back and then I count Jamar Brown as one of those guys. Sampson Livingston is also up there and we’ve got some other guys besides them but those are the main ones.” One slight problem the Sycamores have on offense to start the year is deciding on a leader under center. With Perish out of the equation, the quarterback battle wages on leading up to Saturday. Matt Adam, a redshirt sophomore who played in four games last season is one option, but Zach Kline, a once well-known prospect who transferred in from
the University of California has made some offseason noise as well. “We are going to settle on a quarterback here prior to game time on Saturday between Matt Adam and Zach Kline,” Sanford said of the position. “We feel good about both of them.” And as far as special teams are concerned, Sanford says the group is much improved after the unit had its fair share of ups and downs in games played last year. The Sycamores return all of the major cogs inside special teams, including Preseason All-American long snapper Josh Appel. “We expect big things from our place kicker Eric Heidorn,” Coach Sanford said of special teams. “We also expect big things from our punter, Osborn Umeh. I think if he takes the next step from a consistency standpoint then that’ll mean really big things for him. We also have the best long snapper in FCS football and maybe even in the entire country in Josh Appel. He’s ex-
cellent. We also recruited a new long-distance kickoff guy, Andrew Lunsford, who will be our kickoff guy.” The Sycamores enter Saturday’s contest at home against the Butler Bulldogs with a No. 20 ranking in the FCS Preseason Coaches Poll but ISU still has plenty of doubters left, especially inside its own conference. While a sixth place prediction in the preseason MVFC poll isn’t terrible — seeing as how six MVFC teams earned playoff bids last season and those same six are nationally ranked this season — the gang from Terre Haute still feels some disrespect and plans to erase any leftover doubts that last season was a complete fluke. “In some ways, I think our players see it that way,” Sanford said of the team feeling disrespected to start out 2015. “It’s all about what it ends up as. It’s about us gaining respect and improving who we are. That’s what it’s all about.”

Q&A with Travis Starks Rob Lafary Sports Editor
Travis Starks spent much of 2014 making a name for himself inside the Indiana State football defense. A second-team All-Missouri Valley Football Conference selection a year ago, Starks averaged 5.5 tackles per game while defending a league-leading 21 passes and recording four interceptions, which ranked him second in the MVFC. But now the senior looks to go out with a bang in 2015 and we had the chance to catch up with the Sycamore cornerback to discuss his career and his outlook for the upcoming season. Q: Where did you play high school football at and how would you sum up your high school playing career? A: I went to St. Rita in Chicago and I played running back and cornerback. I was actually recruited as a running back by a lot of schools and originally committed to Central Michigan before decommiting and coming here to ISU. I came to ISU as a running back but switched to the defensive side of the football. Q: What made you want to come to Indiana State? A: The guys … you know you always want to first look at the guys you are going to be playing with. You want to make sure you’re able to gravitate to your teammates and I did that here so the guys played a really big part in my commitment here.
Q: What are some of the things you’ve done here at ISU to improve yourself? A: I just try to be an all-around back and try to make sure I’m fundamental with my technique. My focus is on my technique, my speed and I just try to have good eye-discipline. Those are always the biggest things I work on during the offseason. Q: What made the defensive unit as a whole better as the 2014 season progressed? A: We became tight as a family. If you don’t care about the guy playing next to you then you won’t play as hard. I feel like our skill development was a big key and I feel like this year we are even closer in terms of being a family. Q: What are your expectations for yourself and your team this year? A: For our team, we want to win a conference championship and compete for a national title. As a team that is always our goal but we have to take it one game at a time and that starts with Butler on Saturday. As for me, I just want to be the best cornerback in the nation. I pride myself on that and I pride myself on being fundamental and an overall cornerback. Q: How excited are you to start the season on Saturday? A: I’m so excited. You get so tired of playing your teammates during the offseason so it’s time to go to work. It should be fun this upcoming Saturday.

Former IU player given second chane at ISU Statesman Staff Editorial
Over the summer, Antonio Allen, one of Indiana University’s best football players was arrested and charged with six different felonies for selling heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine. Due to the charges being pressed against him, IU let him go — only for him to transfer to Indiana State University on scholarship, according to the TribStar. This has caused quite a controversy for ISU, as many disagree with the school’s decision. The coaches have the right intentions when it comes to giving people a second chance, but there doesn’t seem to be a principle for this second chance. The student who was shot last year for gambling was kicked out of school and not given a second chance; why should someone being brought up on six different felony charges be allowed a second chance? Looking at it from that angle, this feels like it could have been a PR move or an attempt to improve our team, forsaking our integrity. Allen will begin the season as a redshirt as well, so he won’t even really be playing for us yet. Even more, what if he is actually convicted of these charges? He would be going to prison for a long time, most likely, and that year of
scholarship money would have been completely wasted. Even more than that, how will he learn his lesson? Kicked out of one school only to be welcomed by another is not much of a lesson. He will pay his dues if he is actually arrested, but what if the charges are dropped? He just learned that enough talent will get you off of any hook, regardless. And there is always the chance that Allen may come here and get in trouble again, as irresponsible as that would be. Students who are busted for drugs and even smaller infractions on campus are often not allowed the same second chance that Antonio Allen is being given. There are also many students who could’ve used the scholarship he is receiving — many students who would not make such a large mistake. Furthermore, sports should be a privilege, and a felony arrest definitely warrants having that privilege revoked. People do make mistakes, and sometimes those mistakes deserve a second chance, but Allen’s charges are incredibly severe. If he were convicted of even one of the charges, he is looking at possibly ten years in prison. He may deserve a second chance, but he doesn’t deserve to be paid for that second chance.
This has caused quite a controversy for ISU, as many disagree with the school’s decision.

I have these friends named Ben and Jerry. Trust me when I tell you that they’re the sweetest guys I know. Whether it’s a latenight chick flick binge or the hours following a rough breakup, they manage to be there through it all. In the midst of a tear-soaked saga, it’s unlikely you will find that type of commitment elsewhere. So grab your spoon and
let’s talk food. We all favor different foods at different times of the day. While there is no set outline for when you should eat, the most important thing is to listen to your body. Whether you’re sleepy or hungry, if your body is talking to you don’t ignore it. The biggest issue that many face is eating out of boredom. While it may seem silly, our emotions play a huge roll in our eating habits. So ladies, watch out during that time of the month. Our ravenous side may take over and lead us to the dark side of the pantry. Now, we are all a little guilty when it comes to snack-bingeing with all of the unhealthy goodies. If we are alone, struggling to finish our homework or simply in a bad mood, junk food is ever-so-comforting and tempting in its greasy goodness. Even if you just ate a full meal, you find yourself reaching for the bag because it’s handy. It goes without question that college is hectic. With so many new experiences, you are bound to be frustrated, stressed and homesick. You look for someone or something to comfort you and if it isn’t available, you try to fill the void in some other way, one being food. That is where the problem lies. Eating has become a means of passing time or a way to right some worldly wrong that has come your way. What was once a time to sit around the table and enjoy the company of others has become an on-the-go, mindless activity that we do day in and out to mend our feelings. We no longer take the time to enjoy our food and savor the taste, but instead, manage to shovel it into our faces as we
do a million other things. Fortunately, all we need to do is slow down and recognize the difference. The glorious rumble you get in the pit of your stomach is your body telling you it needs fuel. Think of it like the checkengine light to your stomach. We have all eaten at times when we aren’t hungry but since everyone else is, we assume we might as well. Complicated, I know, but try and focus on the root of your hunger. If it is mere entertainment and distraction you’re looking for, try getting out of your room and walking around. Read a book or do something else to stimulate
your mind. If you can have good, productive thoughts instead of focusing on the box of Oreos atop your dresser, you’re headed in the right direction. Furthermore, if you can differentiate between these feelings you can better control your emotions and learn different ways to help you cope when they spiral out of control. Personally, when the snack attack hits me, I like to look through my closet. Odd, yes, but pairing outfits for the week or taking my mind in the complete opposite direction helps to distract me. There aren’t set rules or guidelines that

work for everybody. You simply have to find what works for you and in good time you will be able to pass up the comforts of junk food. Except cupcakes — no one can pass up a cupcake. Until then, get friendly with your body and hunger. Love your body, give it some much-needed nutrition and watch your mood change. Know what satisfies your appetite and what pushes it off for another hour. It will take some trial and error but in the long run you will find yourself doing a mental check as you head to the pantry. Here’s to strong bodies and even stronger minds.
