President Casey’s stance against HJR6 well-received
Indiana’s Oldest College Newspaper
vol. 162, issue 19
‘Pizza Dude’ bakes up successful business
By Julie Block news@thedepauw.com
Last Monday at 10:00 a.m., DePauw students, alumni, faculty and staff opened their e-mail accounts to find a press release from DePauw and Wabash presidents, Brian Casey and Gregory Hess, stating their joint partnership with Freedom Indiana Coalition against the Indiana House Joint Resolution 6. HJR6 is a proposed amendment that, if passed, would permanently ban same-sex marriage in Indiana. Indiana University, Eli Lilly and Company, Cummins Inc. and the Indiana Chamber of Commerce have all joined Freedom Indiana Coalition against HJR6. Assistant Professor of University Studies Kelsey Kauffman, who will be teaching a class on this subject over Winter Term, often goes to the Indiana legislative meetings and is very familiar with this bill. “This debate has been going on in the legislature for over a decade,” Kauffman said. “This is the third time it has come up.” If the bill is passed in the legislative meeting in January then it will go on a ballot that the public will vote on. But Kauffman does not believe that the bill will make it through the polls. “This issue is such a generational divide. Almost everyone in the legislature is old and most of them male,” Kauffman said. “You have a Hoosier population who, on this issue, is in disagreement.” If this issue has proved at all divisive for DePauw students, faculty or donors, then those who are upset with Casey’s announcement have kept their opinions to themselves. David Hoover ’67, who donated $25 million toward building a new dining hall on campus, says that Casey’s stance does not make him regret his donation at all. “I’m proud of DePauw. I’m proud that the University’s taken this position, and I support it. If anything it might cause me to give more money,” Hoover said. Even members of the College Republicans at DePauw seem to be in agreement with Casey on this issue, while many representatives of their political party at the state level are not. Senior Ryan Heeb, president of the College Republicans, praises Casey for taking the stance that he did. “I completely support president Casey in his opposition against HJR6,” Heeb said. Casey recognized that taking a stance on such a controversial political issue can backfire very easily, but he believes that this is an issue important enough to publicly address on behalf of the university. “I think institutions need to weigh in on matters political with extreme care because you don’t want the university speaking on

Sophomore Adam Folta and senior Rob Weidner run their business, Pizza Dude, by making pizzas from scratch in the Beta Theta Pi fraternity kitchen. CLARISSA ZINGRAF / THE DEPAUW By Emily McCarter news@thedepauw.com
What started as a fun entrepreneurship opportunity one year ago has turned into a legitimate business for DePauw sophomore Adam Folta, the creator of Pizza Dude. Getting the idea from Zappo’s CEO at an Entrepreneurship Summit at Wabash College in April, Folta decided to buy frozen pizzas and sell them by the slice to students on Thursday nights. “We operated out of the Hogate [Hall] basement. A lot of people don’t realize that there are so many resources around them that they can just use for free,” Folta said. It started as a one-man operation, but sophomore Brenton Roberson heard about the idea and knew it would catch on. Roberson no longer is a business partner with Folta, but the team got the word out and business is flowing in. “We consistently sold about 28 pizzas every Thursday
night,” Folta said. Pizza Dude utilizes social media for orders. If students do not want to call, they can simply send a tweet to @_PizzaDude_ to order. Although most customers were first-years, Pizza Dude delivered to the occasional fraternity. However, two weeks ago, the business made some drastic changes. “We just started making our pizza from scratch,” said Folta. “Selling frozen pizzas was illegal and I really thought that this idea could take off and for that to happen, we had to be completely legal.” Folta has since paired up with a new business partner, senior Rob Weidner. Weidner now makes pizzas purely from scratch in

Most DePauw students will go their entire lives without being asked the question, “Should AIDS victims be criminalized?” However, most DePauw students don’t participate in Ethics Bowl, where this very question and others like it were asked in Saturday’s regional competition. Two DePauw teams, with five students on each and only two returning from last year, attended the Ethics Bowl Regional competition in Marion, Ind. One of these teams came in third among 20, qualifying them for the National competition in Jacksonville, Fla. Those on the qualifying team included senior Ethan Brauer, senior Luke Miller, sophomore Alex Moss, senior Kristina Mulry and sophomore Ben Gorman. Ethics Bowl, which is counted as a half-credit course by the university and led by Professors Chris Newton and Marcia McKelligan, is conducted along the lines of a morality debate. Each team begins with 15 “cases” to examine

extreme care because you don’t want the university speaking on every political matter. One, because you get too involved in the political process, also you run the fear of you don’t want to shut down discourse on your own campus and you only want to take stances in the political sphere when you believe they directly impact the institution’s mission,” Casey said. “This one feels like it impacts our mission and our university’s ability to function.” While there has not been much opposition on DePauw’s campus, in a letter to the editor of the Indy Star on Friday, Jacob Elliott Nettnay questioned what the lack of student consultation could mean for President Hess. “Academia is to stand for rigorous debate before conclusions are reached, not after,” Nettnay said in his letter to the editor. “If [Hess’] inability to open internal issues to the campus constituents becomes a trend, I fear that his administration will be called into question.”

about two months before competition. “They’re just a page of text that describes something, a social policy, an event a concern, and when you get to competition, your team is going to be asked a moral question about that case. But you don’t know what that question will be,” McKelligan said. These cases are broken up amongst the five team members, with each member taking three cases to “specialize” in. For example, Miller said he read countless articles on Indian pharmaceutical laws to prepare for the questions that could be asked concerning one of his cases. “And last year, I had an Indian family law case, so now I’m poised to move to India and go to law school,” he said, in reference to the amount of research that goes into preparing for these arguments. During practices, the students present their arguments for each of their cases, which must allow for all possible questions that could be asked by the judge. Their fellow teammates then spend time critiquing the arguments. “You come up with a really good argument, and you’re thinking, ‘I’m really happy with this,’ and then
you walk away having realized that it was completely idiotic, and your premises were clearly unjustified,” Miller said. Moss agreed that the critiquing process could be hard to take at times. “I think I drove around after practices for like an hour. Just scheduled an hour drive so I could debrief. It gets very harsh,” he said. However, the sometimes “harsh” criticism from teammates had its perks. “By the time we get to competition, we’ve spent so much time talking about the cases that we can poke a hole into pretty much any argument, really,” Miller said. After a seven minute response to the question posed by the judges during competition, the opposing team has a five minute time span for rebuttal. The question then returns to the original team for another five minutes. The judges then score answers, and a winner
Although not many feathers have been ruffled on DePauw’s campus regarding this issue, it will be interesting to see the student interaction between Wabash and DePauw students during the Monon Bell game Saturday. “The rivalry is still going to be there, but I think that [this issue] ties the universities together a little bit closer,” Heeb said. “This is just another chapter in the history of the two colleges, being tied together as two of the most prominent liberal arts institutions in Indiana.” Casey agrees, adding, “Whenever DePauw and Wabash do something together there’s an amplifier effect. I thought it might have more impact.” The issue at hand, one that impacts Casey on both an institutional and personal level, created a difficult decision in deciding to approve the announcement. “There’s not a lot of openly gay presidents in the country, so this issue for me came close,” Casey said. “You do try to put your personal posture aside, how effectively one does that, I don’t know.” He also added that working with Hess on the issue helped dispel concern about his decision to stand with
the Freedom Indiana Coalition. While Casey has a personal stance on the issue, he said he consider the issue through the lens of institutional values. “Doing this with Wabash in a lot of ways neutralized that, because here is an institution with heterosexual president,” Casey said. “In some ways that neutralized the issue, in some ways Wabash did me a personal favor. Regardless of the stance that Casey has taken, the legislation will decide whether the law passes and moves on to the public ballot. Until then, all Indiana can do is wait. “If you are operating in a state in which there are rules in place that make it less desirable, less comfortable to live there will it affect our ability to recruit faculty? Absolutely,” Casey said. “If [HJR6] were to pass I would be both institutionally concerned and personally unhappy.”

Kelly Writer’s Series: Tobias Wolff visits campus
Tobias Wolff takes questions from the audience after reading his short short “Bullet in the Brain” Friday evening in Meharry Hall. Lin Ye / THE DEPAUW
American author Tobias Wolff took the stage, his bushy white moustache bobbing as he took a swig of his water and read three of his stories to a packed Meharry Hall Friday night. Wolff came to DePauw as part of the Kelly Writers Series. English writing professor, Emily Doak, has been in email communication with Wolff for over a year to arrange the visit. Wolff grew up on the move, constantly
skipping from town to town while his mother attempted to make them rich by discovering uranium. He went to school in Connecticut and Washington for high school, as well as boarding school in Pennsylvania. Wolf also joined the Army and fought in Vietnam for four years. After the Army, Wolff attained a First Class Honours degree in English at Oxford University, and later went on to Stanford University for his Master of Arts. He then began writing for The Washington Post. He now has a family and teaches creative writing at Stanford.

PizzaDude only delivers to DePauw students. “Our dough is completely from scratch and our ingredients are fresh every week [from a supply company],” said Weidner. PizzaDude offers ten different toppings that you can add onto any pizza, for an additional cost of either 50 cents of one dollar. They also offer three specialty pizzas per week, which can be seen on the menu they send out through a tweet every weekend. Weidner also brought many new marketing ideas to the business,
such as PizzaDude cups free with every purchase. PizzaDude shot glasses are available for purchase for three dollars. Starting this week, PizzaDude customers have the chance to send in suggestions and get more involved with the menu options. “We’re starting up a Facebook Pizza of the Week,” Weidner said. “Based on the amount of likes a suggested pizza gets on the page will be the Facebook pizza of the week, named after the person who suggested it.” Served on Saturdays from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m., not only does PizzaDude offer pizzas starting at nine dollars, they offer a take out option other than Marvin’s for students’ late night cravings. “We want to make sure our customers are happy before anything

else,” said Weidner. “We realize that Marvin’s is really the only option that students have. We wanted to provide a friendly, quick alternative.” Students can call or text PizzaDude at (765)-276-7415, or tweet them, @_PizzaDude_. There will also be a website where you can order a pizza online coming soon. “Now people are getting more and more aware of what they’re eating and they are wanting healthier and fresher foods,” Weidner said. “So we don’t think that there should be any difference in that based on the time that you order your food.”

story-telling abilities left the crowd utterly enthralled and unable to refrain from splitting their sides, including first-year Vyvian Borse. “Hearing him read his stories aloud made his humor stand out even more than it does on the page,” Borse said. Wolff continued this humor in his last reading, “Bullet in the Brain,” which comes from his collection “Our Story Begins.” This is one of Wolff’s better known pieces and held the audience with its initial fast-paced narrative and its peculiar, timealtering ending. After he was finished, Wolff opened up for a few questions. He said the greatest advice he could give to a young, aspiring writer would be to have patience. “The first thought isn’t always the best thought,” he said. “The second thought is a better thought, and the third even better than the second.” DeBruler was impressed with the way he responded to the questions. “He really thought about the questions people asked,” said DeBruler. “He didn’t just rattle off a generic, pre-made response.” When he finished, the crowd roared with appreciation and respect. Wolff’s eyes beamed and his iconic moustache sat atop a huge grin as claps echoed throughout the hall. “His generation looked up to Frost and Hemingway,” Doak said. “For my generation, Wolff is on our list of the greats, the legends of our living literature.”

Doak introduced Wolff at his reading on Friday. “For my generation, it’s like he’s always been there,” Doak said, “His work feels classic and timeless from the moment it’s published.” Wolff began by discussing why he became a writer, a question he often receives. “Before one can become a writer, one must first become a reader,” Wolff explained As a kid, he would spend many late nights under the covers reading, shoving towels under the door so his parents wouldn’t see the glow of his flashlight beam. Sophomore Trish Preuss enjoyed hearing about this. “He reminded me why I want to become a writer,” Preuss said. The book that first inspired him was entitled “Lad, a Dog” by Albert Payson Terhune, which is told in the perspective of a collie. The first story Wolff read in Meharry was entitled “Her Dog,” which he says after writing it, he realized was inspired by these collie stories he read as a kid. The story was seemingly light at first and had many of the audience members snickering. It took a turn, however, and the crowd was silent. By the end, all that remained of the laughter was the creaking of the pews and the sullen faces of the crowd staring up at Wolff. “He was sure of himself,” first-year Hayden DeBruler said. “And he showed it in the measured pauses he took.” Wolff continued to amuse with a reading from his novel “Old School,” which portions of first appeared in The New Yorker as short stories. His witty writing combined with his innate

is announced. Though the reward has been sweet, it has not been an easy journey to achieving it. “At the beginning, we probably meet about seven or eight hours a week. After that, it just keeps ramping up. I think we met probably 15 or twenty hours altogether last week,” McKelligan said. Moss elaborated on the time commitment involved in preparing for this competition. “The last week before competition was the worst week of my life,” he said. “I had like nine hours of sleep from Monday to Wednesday. I was going to bed at 5 a.m. and getting up at 8 a.m. so I could continue to work on Ethics Bowl.” However, there seems to be a consensus that the hours of work, combined with a few self-esteem hits during practice sessions, were well worth it.
“After the competition and we had qualified, it was really, really cool,” Moss said. “It gives you a new perspective on a lot of different things,” Mulry added. “When you read the case at first your might think one thing, but by the end of a couple months you think something totally different.” For the national competition on Feb. 27, DePauw will be putting together what Miller called a “superteam,” made up of different team members from DePauw teams. “Despite all the work, everyone would like to go [to nationals],” McKelligan said. “I’m very excited.”

TURTLE ISLAND QUARTET with NELLIE MCKAY GREEN GUEST ARTIST CONCERT
First-year Emilye Denny works with seniors to create ceramic plates. LEAH WILLIAMS / THE DEPAUW By Leah Williams features@thedepauw.com
Usually, the young learn from their elders, but in a unique first-year seminar, students are teaching senior citizens the art of story telling through illustrating tales on ceramic plates. In assistant professor of art Meredith K. Brickell’s seminar, “Around the Table: Handmade Ceramics, Food, and Conversation,” students learned to make plates and are sharing this skill. Within the classroom, the students examine family, traditions and customs in relation to food. They have examined these topics within varying cultures. However, Brickell did not want their experience to be limited to discussion. She wanted to create a relationship between students’ artistic work and a “tangible community,” such as the Putnam County Senior Center. “It’s a service-learning course so it’s really grounded in the relationship between the students and the class and the seniors,” Brickell said. The students are expected to go to the Senior Center three times during the semester, though they are encouraged to go more. At the Center, students get to meet with Greencastle community members and discuss their lives, especially related to food. They learn about each other’s family and traditions related to food, often over a meal. Some students have joined them on Fridays, when the members make dinner together. Some bring dishes, while others cook there. In the beginning of the semester, students learned
a lot about creating plates in the ceramics studio with Brickell’s guidance. After mastering the art of creating plates, the students met with the Senior Center members at Peeler Art Center, where they shared their new talent. On Nov. 14, they will decorate the plates. Using their creations as a way to illustrate the community members’ stories, they will be following what Brickell calls “a long tradition of plates as canvases.” When creating this First-Year Seminar, Brickell hoped the experience would go beyond simply creating pretty plates. Originally, all the plates were going to feature designs reflecting the Senior Center members’ lives related to food. Some still do, such as the plate of Moore and her partner, Bonnie Roberts. Roberts has memories of visiting a diner with her grandfather, and they are using that to create a “diner-theme” for their plate. Other pairs, like senior center member Ila Reeves and first-year student Kristen Selven, have chosen instead to etch a cat onto their plate. Reeves has collected cat-related objects since 1958 and said that her kids will just “roll their eyes and say ‘Oh, Mom’” when they see her new addition. “At one time I had twenty-five [cats], but my dad convinced me that wasn’t a good idea,” Reeves said, which resulted in going door-to-door with a backset of cats. She enjoys sharing these types of stories with Selven regularly. Reeves also said that working with Selven has given her a chance to learn new skills. “I’m learning you’re never too old to try something new,” she said.

DePauw Abroad
Adventure awaits beyond Greencastle, and each semester, DePauw students seek that different setting for academic and learning experiences, domestically and overseas. In fact, almost 90 percent of students graduate with credit from off-campus experiences. Students are taking classes, interning with reputable companies and traveling, all the while learning how to adjust to a new home for roughly four months. We asked some students who are currently off campus to share their experiences and challenges in their respective “foreign lands” away from DePauw as their semesters come to an end.
Study Abroad in Ireland By Erin Komornik
As a senior at DePauw, my year has started off uniquely compared to many of my peers, with a semester abroad at the University of Limerick (UL) in Ireland. Reflecting back over the past nine weeks, I’m nearly at a loss for words to the experiences I’ve had so far: the change in curriculum, the meeting and making of new friends and the
travel—all of it has had a huge influence on my time spent away from DePauw. Compared to DePauw (and probably most of the universities in the U.S.), Ireland is relaxed about almost everything, including their academic curriculum. Purchasing textbooks is hardly recommended because everything is in the library. At DePauw, it is common to have three to four exams throughout the semester, plus essays and lab reports strewn in between. UL gives midterms and finals, which unfortunately means that my entire grade relies on just a couple of assignments. While I appreciate the fill-everyhour-of-every-day mentality of DePauw, I have also successfully adapted to a slower-paced lifestyle of the Irish with much enthusiasm. Traveling alone to a country and setting out to make new friends felt like my first-year all over again. Orientation was a great way to meet other international students, but we weren’t integrated as well into the Irish student community. The second and third year classes that I’m attending are full of Irish students that have known each other for the duration of their college experience, so instead of muscling our way into their circles, international students formed groups of our own. This has probably been the most difficult and upsetting part of my time abroad. And yet, I have learned a valuable lesson: it is hard to integrate yourself into a foreign culture. It is an idea that I hadn’t considered until traveling abroad, and for that reason, I think everyone should experience being an international student at least once. It gives you a greater understanding and appreciation for the international students at your home university. My time spent traveling on the weekends has made up for the free time I have during the week. Many people study abroad and travel to as many countries as possible before returning home, but I think there is something unique about being able to see every corner of the country you call home for four months.
Off-Campus Experience in New York City By Sophie Hoffman
This semester I went from Greencastle to New York City. I am in the New York Art Program, where students from different universities across the country get internships in the arts and live in Manhattan together. My primary internship is at a production company called Break Thru Films, founded by two directors, Annie Sundberg and Ricki
Stern. Break Thru is currently working on a TV show called “The Fashion Fund,” where ten designers from across the country compete in a Vogue Fashion Competition. My job at the company has mostly been to transcribe interviews, pull music for the show and also shoot videos for special events. But on my second day, I worked with the film crew to shoot a fashion show. I ran around backstage getting designers, models and makeup artists to sign release forms. I couldn’t believe the models. Seeing a model in person is nothing like seeing one in a photo. They are not the intimidating beautiful figures we see in magazines. They are emaciated and pale. You can see every bone in their back, each rib and each bone in their spine. There is a major transformation that happens from the time they get there to after the makeup artists get through with them. They become unrecognizable: their lips are fuller, their eyebrows are hairier, their eyes are lined and wide in addition to their hair being teased to the max. All in all, the preparation took about five hours. When it was time for the show, you could literally feel the excitement radiating off the designers and the stylists. As an intern, you get access and insight into some amazing experiences, but you also get the jobs that no want wants and no one holds your hand during them. You're expected to just figure it out. On one particular errand, I was sent to Conde Nast, the printing press of Vogue. When I got there, security wouldn't let me go up. I called Break Thru and they told me it was time to get my "New York attitude on." I had to transition into complete diva until they let me deliver my disk on the eighth floor. New York is such a fast paced place that you are forced to just jump in head first and do the best you can. Sometimes I feel like the luckiest girl in the world and sometimes I feel like I can't wait to go back to Greencastle.
Internship experience in Cape Town, South Africa By Caleb Haydock
Having never been out of the country before, I must say there is certainly an adjustment period that comes along with the territory. I felt the jet lag tremendously when I arrived in Cape Town and had a hard time sleeping for the first three weeks. Transportation was another obstacle at the beginning, but it quickly got better. Really. after the first couple of weeks though, all of the challenges, if any, are trumped by all of the constant fun you are having. I have become a certified scuba diver, a hiking fanatic and even a spelunker (a person who explores caves for fun) during my time in South Africa. I have been able to try my hand at virtually anything you can imagine all the while intertwining it with my love for video and film. The internship I have is a nice outlet for these sorts of things too. One day I'll be shooting a surfing competition and the next day I'll be filming a DJ convention. Both connect to certain cultures that are new to me. Even though my transportation to work is no longer a challenge, it’s still a highlight. As I take the train, and then a mini-bus each day, I see countless stories unfold right in front of me. I’m sure this happens in every country, but I would argue most stories aren't as colorful as ones in Cape Town. The biggest highlight I have left is a Mozambique trip coming up in the next couple of days. Overall though, it has been a positive experi-

Philanthropic service should embody action and meaningful thought DePauw students are supposed to be a great representation of passionate, forwardthinking young-adults. But we are wondering where those great thinkers have disappeared to, and why superficial discussion and events have been allowed to take over the campus. In a recent editorial, we praised Generation Y for being a proactive group of social movers who are not afraid to approach relevant issues in liberal fashion. But in the midst of the vicious cycle of a busy DePauw student’s life, we believe students are not living up to that expectation. We are not taking enough time in our day-to-day madness to think about what’s happening around us, thus, inhibiting us from making positive change. As we reflect on the various causes DePauw students strive to help, we fear that the cause itself gets lost in our daily commitments and instead becomes trivialized. We are presented with plenty of opportunities to provide service to local and global problems and we commend the student body for their efforts. However, in the midst of planning great events for campus-wide involvement and large donations, we forget to discuss and educate one another on these causes that were once something we were ambitiously committed to. We have turned it into a money-exchanging means of support and a “check” off the to-do list rather than a campus-wide understanding and passion for service and proactivity. Consider the difference of philanthropy and service. Philanthropy is a vicarious experience and a means for donations, while service is the more direct and active way of contributing to a cause. Instead of thinking about attendance at events to raise money, let’s refocus towards discussion and rediscovering our passion for things that matter. In theory, we’re the generation that will conquer social issues. We can’t do that by solely raising money. There also needs to be a service and action aspect. Our actions will change things, not just our money. We fear that this hectic environment has inhibited students’ critical eye on campus. This leads to events that have lost focus on their purpose in the first place.While we are busy with things that are plenty important, we as an Editorial Board believe we need to spend more time discussing, listening and being proactive. As much as we want to do creative, fun things to get the campus involved, we should maybe redirect attention to what the philanthropies actually are and what the causes we support are in the first place. We return to discussion, and in turn become more educated. It’s easy to run from class to campus event to organization meeting and catch up with friends on the weekends. It’s hard to step back and recognize the superficiality of our campus culture and facilitate discussion on tougher topics. We encourage our peers to separate themselves from the business and think about what they value and where they focus their energy. Individual as well as group reflection can certainly lead to a critically thinking campus. We all know how to think before we act, but we’re not giving ourselves time to think. email us at edboard@thedepauw.com

Posse provides key educational opportunity Arthur Small
I
took my first-year seminar with Clarissa Peterson, professor of political science and director of the black studies program. The course was called Race, Power and Privilege. As an intended political science major, I was excited to have gotten into the course, but unsure of what to expect. I was unaware before the class of the Posse Foundation program, a competitive full-tuition scholarship given to public high school student in urban areas who display exceptional academic and leadership potential. My first-year seminar included five Posse scholars, all of whom I quickly grew to like. Posse scholars have a legitimate presence in the makeup of every graduating class at DePauw. However, there seems to be a perception that they do not deserve the scholarship. It does not make sense to me why this animosity exists towards the program. You could chalk
it up to some of the misinformation about the scholarship, or simply ignorance. One particular classmate of mine really sticks out in my mind, her name is Shavon Mathus, also a senior. Not only is she still a friend of mine, but also she is an inspiring example of everything that is right in the program. Coming from a low-income community on the south side of Chicago, Mathus realized that she represented the exception to the rule as a college student. The educational inequality she witnessed growing up and better understands now as a college student lit a fire inside of her. She realized that this issue was one of the most pressing problems in urban America. She has always said to me, “If not me, who?” and, “If not now, when?’ Mathus has the ultimate goal of opening her own school to support students from low income communities. Twenty years from now, I know I will look back on my time at DePauw and the first-year seminar that introduced me to Mathus as something to be proud of. Her selflessness is admirable, and she will make a positive impact on countless lives. I will be happy to tell people that I knew her. Without the opportunities that Posse provided for her, would she
have the same opportunity going forward in life? Obviously I cannot answer that with certainty, but I would guess that Posse was instrumental in giving her the opportunity to pursue her passion for education reform. Posse gave Mathus not only the opportunity to pursue an education, but also the support system that helped her succeed during her four years in Greencastle. If the Posse Foundation is developing leaders who will make a positive influence later in life, the DePauw community should embrace the program for the opportunity it gives our school. The Posse Foundation identifies leaders and sends them to reputable schools, like DePauw, and as a community we should respect the value of these students. Posse is not a charity program, stop treating it like one. If you take the time to meet a Posse scholar, you’ll realize what they add to DePauw. If Mathus does not make you believe in the overwhelmingly positive nature of Posse, I do not know what will. —– Small is a senior history and political science double major from Zionsville, Ind. opinion@thedepauw.com

Letters to the Editor Philanthropy event shows insensitivity towards the incarcerated On Friday, Nov. 8, I received another notification on Facebook. Assuming it was an invitation to Candy Crush Saga, of course I was going to ignore it. However, this one was different. It was an invitation to an event on campus, and when I hesitantly clicked the left side of my mouse after reading the advertisement state, “We Jail Em, You Bail Em,” I was not surprised by what was expected. There is a philanthropy event on Wednesday, Nov. 13 that will “raise funds and awareness of women’s heart health as heart disease is the number one killer of women in America,” the event description said. Philanthropy events are meaningful if the topics are discussed and the audience can understand what population the funds are beings raised for. For those who did not receive this invitation or who are not aware of the event, here is the description: “The Gamma Chapter of Alpha Phi presents our second annual Cardiac Arrest event! Come out to East College lawn on Wednesday, Nov. 13 to bail out your fellow peers, professors and favorite faces of DePauw! The cardiac convicts will be arrested the day of the event and placed into the jail immediately after. We would love to see everyone stop by our event, and I’m sure the convicts would appreciate it as well. :) All bail money benefits The Alpha Phi Foundation. The posted bail for an individual/group will be $40. Bail can be paid in the form of cash or check. Bring $1, $2, $5 or what have you, to help bail out your friends, brothers, sisters, whomever! Take a look at the wanted posters posted below to see who will be arrested on the 13th. Due to the fact that we do not tolerate cruel and un-
usual punishment of our convicts, this event will include music, a cookout and hot chocolate ($2 per plate).” I have no negative feelings towards the organization; however, I am genuinely offended. I am very aware and educated on how much suffering and inequality convicts undergo and I feel that this event romanticizes reality into a joyful fantasy. I understand “arrest” in itself deals with imprisonment but I (and others) view it as a mockery of the system and the individuals suffering within the institution. There are experiences that we cannot take away from those incarcerated because cruel and unusual punishment occurs do not even have that option due to financial setbacks. I am even more offended at how the advertisement states, “due to the fact that we do not tolerate cruel and unusual punishment of our convicts,” since it is factual that harsh punishments towards inmates occur on a regular basis nationally. To alter the “cruel and unusual punishment” in return for a reward of music, a cookout and hot chocolate truly downplays the struggle individuals endure. I have close family and friends in the prison system and failing to shed light upon the true cruelty of the institution perpetuates the oppression of privilege. — Michael Chavez, ‘16
An invitation to the men’s swim meet This Wednesday, the DePauw men’s swim team will take on Wabash College in our very own Charles P. Erdmann Natatorium at 7 p.m. The men’s swim team invites all students to spectate the meet and encourages fans to bring a charged but respectful attitude to cheer for the
Tigers against the Little Giants. The swim team has only two home meets this year (the second is during Winter Term), and it is an honor to compete against our biggest rival with our fellow students in attendance. Not all is well in go-watch-the-swim-team land, though: Athletic Director Stevie BakerWatson has banned the swimming parents from hosting a tailgate outside of the Lilly Center. The parents’ tailgate is a swim team tradition and brings an aura of excitement that is hard to equal. We on the team feel that this ban compromises the atmosphere of the meet and exposes an ugly double standard in DePauw’s athletic department. Ignoring Baker-Watson’s past attempts to eliminate tailgates from all sporting events entirely (a move universally rejected by the student body), I must remind you that this weekend, the year’s largest tailgate will occur to celebrate the Monon Bell Classic game against Wabash. Why should only the football team be allowed a tailgate? Both mens’ programs have a history of success and both square off against their arch-rivals this week. Banning the tailgate harms the electricity of the competition and does disservice to the men’s swim team, which has put in months of training already with three more still to come. I urge the editors and readers of The DePauw to vocalize their support of the swim team and the parents’ tailgate to the athletic department in person, via e-mail and on social media. Again, the team also hopes to see you on Wednesday night. — Stephen McMurtry, ‘16

Tigers defeat Hiram College 24-13 By Eric St. Bernard sports@thedepauw.com
Following a 24-13 win against the Hiram College Terriers, the DePauw Tigers have recorded four regular season wins for the first time since 2011. The Tigers are now 4-5, while Hiram College dropped to a disappointing 2-7 for the season. After a scoreless first quarter, Hiram took the first lead in the game when Terrier quarterback George Blake connected with wide receiver Nate Eaton for a 10-yard touchdown pass. For the Terriers, who lost to the Wabash College Little Giants last week 66-0, it was their first touchdown in four total quarters. Their last touchdown came with two seconds to go in a 51-13 loss to Ohio Wesleyan University. The Tigers were without leading rusher, senior Nikko Sansone, who is recovering from a sprained acromioclavicular joint. Even with the early reason to worry, the Tigers kept composure, something that would pay off with 4:52 left in the second quarter. First-year stand-out Matt Hunt hurled a 25yard pass to 6-foot-5 receiver Barry Flynn for the Tigers’ first touchdown. From that point forward, the Tigers controlled the momentum of
the game. Armani Cato, the senior running back from Fayetteville, Ga., converted a 2-yard touchdown run with 8:45 to go in the third quarter. Cato struck again early in the fourth quarter, extending the lead to 21-7 on an 18-yard touchdown run. Cato finished the game with 109 yards rushing on 19 carries and two touchdowns. For the game, Cato averaged an astounding 5.5 yards per carry. It was his second time hitting the century mark in his four years with the program. Cato credited his offensive line for his success against the Terriers. “Without the offensive line, no one can produce,” Cato said. “Our offense cant be cohesive and we cant move the ball, which we have to do against Wabash. We need some big plays. Wabash has a great front line.” When Cato wasn’t running through the Terriers’ front seven, it was sophomore Amen Galley doing damage on the ground. Galley finished with 61 yards on 17 carries. Galley now has a total of 207 yards for the season, second only to the injured Sansone. Sansone is expected to play in this week’s Monon Bell game, the last of his college career. Hunt had a relatively quiet performance, throwing for 150 yards and the lone touchdown
pass to Flynn. His passing yardage, 33 percent completion percentage, and 92.22 QB efficiency was the lowest since he started his college career on against Wittenberg University. The Tigers defense didn’t need much more from Flynn, however, as they held the Terriers to 13 points and 200 total yards. Defensive linemen sophomore Michael Mitsch and senior Tophel Secuskie helped their front line quiet the Terriers rushing attack of David Perkins and Richard Simpson. Hiram ended the game with only 35 net yards rushing. Half of their yardage on the ground came from a 17-yard rush from Perkins. According to sophomore corner Adam Folta, “We dominated up front. Our [defensive line] did a great job and made my job [in the secondary] easy.” The Tigers hope to take their momentum into this Saturday’s season finale, the annual Monon Bell Classic game against Wabash. The Little Giants come in bolstering an 8-1 overall record. They are coming off their first loss, a 17-35 defeat at the hands of North Coast Athletic Conference title-winner Wittenberg University.

On a team filled with talent, leaders have emerged that look to further solidify their already strong full-team-effort approach to each and every game. These leaders received recognition from the NCAC, as Goodbarn, Henry, Figel and senior Chelsea Cutler were named to the All-NCAC tournament team with Cutler earning the tournaments most valuable player award. “It’s a great honor, and kudos to Goody [Goodbarn] and Chelsea [Cutler]. They played a big part on offense and on defense,” Henry said. “Micheline [Figel] has also really stepped up and has been on fire the last few games.” DePauw will take on either Messiah College or Catholic University on Saturday in Newport News, Va. The Tigers begin their NCAA title search with this game, and look to earn a national title.

Tigers overcome injuries, still find success By Eric St. Bernard sports@thedePauw.com
Despite an impressive 73 percent winning percentage in men’s and women’s fall sports, Tiger athletics teams have still encountered a number of injuries across the board. The men’s soccer team started its season at a record-breaking start of 10-0. On Sept. 28, the team had its first tie against conference rival, Kenyon College. The team suffered its first loss two weeks later, against No. 1 ranked Ohio Wesleyan University. Since then, the Tigers have gone 3-1-1, losing their North Coast Athletic Coast tournament semifinal in penalty kicks in a rematch against Ohio Wesleyan. The Tigers did not make the NCAA tournament. Critics of the team blame the finish on season-long fatigue after their blazing start. Some argue the team simply “ran out of gas.” However, season-ending injuries to senior defenseman Brandon Johnson and senior midfielder George Elliot, combined with the lingering shoulder injury to sophomore forward Adrian Ables played key roles in the Tigers’ early exit. All three wounded Tigers are leaders in the locker room, and leaders on the cumulative season statistics board. Ables, a sophomore from Midwest City, Okla., recorded five goals and five assist this season, including two game-winning goals for the team. Elliot is often regarded as the commander-inchief of the offensive attack, starting all seventeen games before suffering a season-ending leg injury in practice. The injury came just prior to the NCAC semi-final game against Ohio Wesleyan. Johnson was equally important on the defensive side of the ball, providing the last line of defense for junior goalkeeperJake Pezzuto. Johnson’s decisionmaking on the field played an instrumental role in Pezzuto’s three straight shutout victories in early
September. Losing Johnson to injury has had a direct impact on the scoreboard. Since the Tigers’ 2-1 win at Allegheny College, the Tigers have given up six goals in a three game stretch, against Wabash College, Denison University and Ohio Wesleyan. That is the most goals against over a three-game stretch all season. In fact, the Tigers have only given up more than one goal twice all season before the threegame stretch. While coach Brad Hauter and the rest of the Tigers staff may be hesitant to openly make excuses for the team, it is hard to argue Johnson and Elliot’s absence didn’t have an effect on the NCAC Tournament semifinal against Ohio Wesleyan. “It definitely had a huge impact on the game,” Ables said. “We had to change our style of play, and the rhythm of the team changed… I’d like to think we could have beaten [Ohio Wesleyan] in regular time [if Elliot and Johnson played]. But at the same time, we dealt with the hand we were given.” Soccer isn’t the only athletic program missing key players down the stretch. The field hockey team will compete in the NCAA tournament without senior defensive player Sydney Sprawls. Sprawls has been dealing with a stress reaction in her right tibia since the team’s pre-season training. After playing through the pain for several weeks, Sprawls finally received the news that would end her college athletics career. "It shows the resilience of our team and our players willing to play through the pain,” Sprawls said. “Many of our starters are injured, and it’s good to see them stick it out." Besides Sprawls, sophomore forward Laynie Thomas, senior defender Taylor Helms, and firstyear midfielder Addie Ball are all playing through injuries. Even with the injuries, Tigers field hockey conquered their second straight NCAC tournament title this past Saturday, in a 2-1 victory against Ke-
Junior linebacker Garrett Rice is one of many Fall athletes recovering from season-ending injuries. Despite the injuries, the athletics program has seen success among their teams across the board. ERIC ST BERNARD / THE DEPAUW nyon. Due to the physicality of the game, Tigers football head coach Bill Lynch is constantly readjusting his starting line ups due to injury. In preseason, last year’s starting corner Phil Ganser suffered a seasonending torn. Since then, the team has lost weapons on both sides of the ball, including senior wide out Zach Alleman and junior linebacker Garrett Rice. Going into his last Monon Bell game, leading senior rusher Nikko Sansone is dealing with a sprained acromioclavicular joint. Sansone is the only player with a chance of playing next week’s Monon Bell Classic game, by far the most important art of the Tigers’ 4-5 season.
Even with the injuries, each program has found success this season. Tigers football’s four wins this season under Lynch doubles the amount of games won last season. Men’s soccer stands at 14-2-3, which is enough for a fourth place standing in the saturated NCAC. For the second year in a row, the field hockey program will represent DePauw at the NCAA tournament. The Tigers athletics programs have shown that injury is something that cannot be avoided. More importantly, they have shown that with hard work, even in the absence of key players, success can be had.
Swimming program continues early season success By Ryan Konicek news@thedepauw.com
The men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams completed a sweep of Wittenberg University this past Friday. The men’s team won 187-99, their 26th straight dual meet victory. They now have a season record of 2-0. The women’s team beat Wittenberg at a score of 168-120, putting them at 1-1 on the season. The men’s 200-medley relay of seniors George Morrison, Matt Gleason, Jack Burgeson and junior Casey Hooker opened the mens’ meet with a win. “The Wittenberg meet featured a variety of great races because people swam different events than they normally do,” Hooker said. “Seeing some of our freshman step up and win races was definitely
exciting.” Hooker had an exciting meet himself, as he set a pool record for the 200 butterfly (1:54.70), according to Gleason. “We were kind of riding a high the whole meet...seeing everyone step up and push themselves on events they do not normally swim,” Gleason said. “There wasn’t really a low point for us on Friday.” The women’s swimming and diving team was on fire as well. Junior Emily Weber helped her team rack up their points by stealing first place in two events, the 1000 free (10:42.91) and the 500 free (5:16.39), as did first-year Angela Newlon who won three events, the 200 freestyle (1:55.08), 200 butterfly (2:10.46) and the 400 individual medley (4:34.36). “Wittenberg has been our biggest rival. We go back and forth beating them. Even in conference we are competing against them for places,” senior Allison Kirby said.
This Wednesday, Nov. 13 is a home meet for men’s swimming and diving team against Wabash College. The action is slated to begin at 7 p.m. “We always get fired up for it,” Hooker said. “There will be some great races for the swimmers on our team and we would love as many people at the meet on Wednesday as possible.” For Gleason, it is hard to ignore the added excitement of a Monon Bell Classic week matchup against Wabash, known colloquially as the “Aqua Bell.” “This meet, more than any other, has a huge draw for people to come watch us,” Gleason said. “The energy that fills the [Charles P. Erdmann] Natatorium is like fire for the spirits of the Aqua Tigers as they stalk the pool deck, eyeing their Little Giant prey.”

Field Hockey snags its second straight NCAC title By Michael Jennings sports@thedepauw.com
Senior Chelsea Cutler keeps the ball away from Kenyon during the game on Saturday, November 9th. The game ended with the Tiger’s winning 2 - 1 and with a spot in the NCAA Division 3 Championship. CLARISSA ZINGRAF / THE DEPAUW
On a windy Saturday afternoon at Blackstock Stadium, the DePauw field hockey team earned its second consecutive North Coast Athletic Conference title with a 2-1 victory over Kenyon College. The victory ensured an automatic berth for the Tigers in the NCAA tournament, where, last year, the Tigers advanced to the semi-finals. Kenyon proved a difficult challenge, but the red hot Tigers could not be quelled. Sophomore midfielder Grace Goodbarn got the scoring started in the second minute, and DePauw looked to be in business as they had been so many times during the season. Kenyon held on for most of the game, especially in the second half, and threatened the lead on many occasions in the first half as well. DePauw scored its second goal of the game with 6:04 remaining in the first half on a goal by senior forward Micheline Figel. Goodbarn found herself involved in both DePauw goals, providing the assist. The first half ended 2-0, and Kenyon came out ready to fight in the second half. Kenyon earned a string of corners followed by a number of goal scoring opportunities. The game took on a free flowing, back-and-forth sort of style with chances
being created at both ends. Kenyon pulled back within one goal less than five minutes into the second half on a well-executed corner play. From then on, both sides began to play with more physicality and frustration. Fouling began due to the physical and emotional nature of the final. Goodbarn and the Tigers expected such a game, however. “Kenyon is a little more scrappy than other teams like Denison [University], and we could not let ourselves get really emotionally into it,” Goodbarn said. The scrappiness did end up being detrimental for the Tigers, however, as two yellow cards were shown to DePauw players within minutes of each other, causing the Tigers to play eleven versus nine for about three minutes. Kenyon could not capitalize on the two-player advantage though, and DePauw held out for the 2-1 victory. Junior forward Paige Henry commented on the yellow card situation. “Obviously it was an adjustment playing two down for so long,” she said. “Coach called a timeout and reworked our formation, but we just had to remain defensive for a few more minutes.” This year, the Tigers look to build on last year’s NCAA run and contend for the national title. “We have a really good seeding, and we feel
