NAACP banquet celebrates diversity, multiculturalism By STEPHANIE BACHMAN Lead News Writer S.L.Bachman2@iup.edu

The Indiana County chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) celebrated diversity, multiculturalism and community involvement at its 30th annual freedom fund banquet from 6 to 8 p.m. Saturday at the Park Inn. The banquet was an opportunity to honor and recognize the contributions of individuals and organizations from the Indiana community who have performed notable acts related to diversity and multiculturalism. The theme for this year’s banquet was “Changing and Healing Times.” Dr. Roger Briscoe, a professor from the department of educational and school psychology and the banquet coordinator, explained why the theme was selected. “The theme speaks for itself when you think about what is happening in society and the culture,”

Briscoe said. “Time will always change, and healing is needed because we do not treat all people as people. We need justice for all.” Dr. Marveta Ryan-Sams, Spanish professor and coordinator of the Pan-African studies program, was the keynote speaker for the banquet. She spoke about how conversations can help people overcome differences in relation to the event’s overall theme. Ryan-Sams was chosen as the keynote speaker because of her work with the Pan-African studies program, including putting on programs that are co-sponsored by the NAACP and inviting speakers to IUP to talk about their experiences related to national and international trends on social, cultural, economic, political and environmental issues. Ryan-Sams said her goal with bringing in such speakers is to “help the IUP community learn more about and engage with global and domestic issues.” Additionally, Ryan-Sams has mentored African-American stu-

get together, [including] faculty, administrators, political officials, students, community leaders and the community in general.” Briscoe also thanked First Commonwealth Bank for its sponsorship and support of the banquet. More than 10 students were able to attend the banquet at no

cost, thanks to the sponsorship of the Center for Multicultural Student Leadership and Engagement. Briscoe said students were selected for the sponsorship as well as applied or nominated. A variety of students were invited, including members of the IUP-NAACP chapter and the Color Guards from IUP-ROTC. Among the students being sponsored was Amirah Macon (senior, criminology), president of IUP-NAACP, who attended the banquet last year. Macon said, from her previous experience, students who went to the banquet had the chance to meet members of the Indiana community and network with members of the Indiana County NAACP. The other students being sponsored from IUP-NAACP included both general members and executive board members of the organization. Vice President Destiny Gadson (senior, criminology) and Secretary Thomas Graham (sophomore, criminology) were two executive board members in attendance.

‘Give to the Grove’ project to plant seeds for the future By ALEXANDRIA MANSFIELD News Editor A.M.Mansfield@iup.edu

IUP’s Student Philanthropy Council is currently working in coalition with the Annual Giving Department to plant a tree in the Oak Grove as a way to give back to the community.

the promotion and marketing of the project with great enthusiasm and creativity.” “This project will be an oppor-

Maultsby said that he hoped students who work on this project or donate to it will be able to visit campus one day and look back at what they have accomplished in leaving a positive, permanent mark on their environment. “We announced the project at the SPC’s annual gameshow Tuesday, and we look to spread awareness for the rest of the semester and continue on through next semester until our goal is reached,” he said. The project is still in the “money-earning phase.” Maultsby said

they hope to plant an oak tree in late spring this year. For a tree to be planted, the IUP Arboretum needs to be given $500, according to Sell. Maultsby said, at the moment, they plan to plant just one; however, if they can raise more money, they will plant as many as they can. “The Oak Grove, to me, is the heart of IUP,” he said. “There is no better way to make your mark on this campus than adding to the beauty of the Oak Grove.” Maultsby and the council encourage students to visit their website www.iup.edu/givetothegrove to make donations and learn more about the project.

Scientists find correlations between birth year and immunity to the flu By SAMMY CAIOLA The Sacramento Bee TNS

If you’re deciding whether to get a flu shot or not, you might want to take your birthday into account, a new study suggests. Research published this week by UCLA and the University of Arizona found that birth year is a significant predictor for what strains of the influenza virus a person will be susceptible to as an adult. Flu viruses are generally catego-

rized into two groups, with H1, H2 and avian H5 in group one and H3 and avian H7 in group two. The recent findings confirm that early exposure to a strain in either group will provide broad spectrum protection against other strains in the same category later in life. For example, individuals born before 1968 likely experienced their first flu infection from a group-one virus, and those individuals appear to be protected against other viruses of the same group, according to a news release about the study. Initial infection

Terroristic Threats • Colin Tyme, 22, of Indiana, was charged with terroristic threats, disorderly conduct, public drunkenness and trespass at 1:56 a.m. Nov. 13 at the Coney Island Bar, 642 Philadelphia St., according to the Indiana Borough Police Department.

with a group-two virus, often the case for those born after 1968, appears to protect against viruses in that group. In either group, early exposure

reduced the risk of severe infection from those particular strains later in life by about 75 percent. This year’s influenza vaccine protects against both H1 and H3

strains, meaning it would offer some level of protection for people in both groups. “In a way it’s a good-news, badnews story,” said Michael Worobey, University of Arizona ecologist and senior author, in a statement. “Your first infection sets you up for either success or failure in a huge way, even against ‘novel’ flu strains. The bad news is the very same imprinting that provides such great protection may be difficult to alter with vaccines. “A good universal vaccine should provide protection where you lack it most, but the epidemiological data suggest we may be locked into strong protection against just half of the family tree of flu strains.”

Graduate student continues to star in TV show he helped create By STEPHANIE BACHMAN Lead News Writer S.L.Bachman2@iup.edu

After getting a bachelor’s degree in communications media last spring, Nick Tyson (graduate, adult education and communications technology) decided to continue his education at IUP, where he can continue to work on the television show he helped start as an undergraduate. While working toward his bachelor’s degree, Tyson developed the IUP-TV show, “Back to the Drawing Board” with his friend Alex Ulaky (graduate, adult education and communications technology). “I’m so glad that Alex and I discovered each other by accident, because we’ve been a team ever since,” Tyson said. “We are two totally different people, but we have a common drive to create TV and these stories for people to view that I really

haven’t seen in anyone else.” In addition to his role as coexecutive producer, Tyson also starred in the show as one of its lead actors in the first season and the lead actor in the second season. The second season is currently airing on IUP-TV, and filming is underway for the third season, in which Tyson’s character has a few cameo appearances. Despite his graduate studies, Tyson is still involved in the show. His role for the third season primarily consists of directing, including doing his first solo episode as

Villanova student assaulted by white men yelling ‘Trump’ By CAITLIN MCCABE The Philadelphia Inquirer TNS

Villanova University’s Department of Public Safety is investigating a reported incident in which a black female student was assaulted by white men as they ran toward her yelling, “Trump, Trump, Trump!” According to a university source with knowledge of the attack, it occurred Thursday night as the female student, who has not been identified, was walking through a tunnel on campus. There, she saw the men, who allegedly ran toward her, shouting the name of the president-elect. One man knocked her to the ground, causing her to hit her head, the source said. According to Radnor police, the

woman was not seriously injured but remains shaken. The men involved in the assault were not identified. In an email to the university community, the Rev. Peter M. Donohue, Villanova’s president, said he was “deeply disturbed by several reports of members of our community using our nation’s political process as a justification for behaviors and language aimed to intimidate or humiliate other people.” In a separate statement, the university said it “finds this conduct deplorable and considers this racist behavior that runs completely counter to our values.” The incident is one of a string of hate crimes, assaults and racist messages across the nation and region after the election. Protests continue in many cities.

director at the end of the semester. “Back to the Drawing Board” airs at 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays on IUP-TV. The program is a show about IUP students making a show. It is done in a mock-documentary

style similar to “The Office.” All of the characters are flawed in their own ways, which contributes to their struggles on-screen as well as the humor of the show. Tyson described his character, Arthur, and what it was like to work on the show. “Arthur was a very hard kind of person to get,” Tyson said. “He contradicts everything he does. “Juggling this kind of mix of actor and executive producer with myself was hard.” Tyson said he would oftentimes have to setup the scenes and then immediately walk in front of the camera. In addition to his role with “Back to the Drawing Board,” Tyson also had a featured extra role in Vin Diesel’s “Last Witch Hunter.” Tyson said he was “very proud of the role [he] managed to get cast in” and “loved meeting and talking to Vin Diesel.” After getting his master’s de-

gree, Tyson plans to move to Los Angeles to pursue a career in film and television. He said he has some friends in the industry, including IUP alumna Trisha Stahl, who had a role on the television show “Glee.” Tyson offered some advice to other IUP students, especially other communications media majors. “You need to get [elbow]-deep into anything you can get into,” Tyson said. “The biggest thing I see with communications students is they don’t want to do anything outside of the classroom, and that is a bad way to spend your time. That’s time you can spend creating media. “Follow your dreams and truly don’t give up. There were many times I could have said ‘no,’ but I didn’t. I worked with it, and I truly didn’t give up. Saying this is a lot easier than doing it in the moment, but that’s what it’s all about. You got to keep going.”

GOP opposition to Trump could spark 2018 primary challenges By SIMONE PATH CQ-Roll Call TNS

Alabama Rep. Martha Roby was projected to easily win a fourth term in her safe Republican district Nov. 8 . She did win – and comfortably. Just not by Alabama standards. Roby carried less than 50 percent of the vote in the state’s 2nd District, defeating Democratic state Rep. Nathan Mathis by just 9 points. All the other Republican members of the Alabama delegation either won their districts by more than 30 points or ran uncontested. Both Sen. Richard C. Shelby and President-elect Donald Trump carried the state by nearly 30 points. What was different in Roby’s case was a write-in campaign, provoked by her last-minute disavowal of Trump, that received 11 percent of the vote. After the release of the 2005 “Access Hollywood” tape, Roby

called on Trump to step aside as the GOP presidential nominee, and later suggested the party could replace him with Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. The backlash was immediate. The Pike County Republican Women disinvited the congresswoman from speaking at their event. Roby already overcame a challenge from the right this year, when she faced local tea party leader Becky Gerritson in the GOP primary. There was concern heading into Super Tuesday that having Alabama’s presidential and congressional primaries on the same day would hurt Roby if the presidential race drove up conservative turnout. But the threeterm congresswoman ended up winning that primary by nearly 40 points. Nov. 8’s write-in votes hadn’t been tallied as of the end of last week. But Gerritson may end up being the name many 2nd District voters penciled in. Her supporters

rallied around her after Roby withdrew her support for Trump. On a Facebook page her supporters created for the campaign, Gerritson left this message: “Pray for Martha (for real) that she would take this wake-up call to heart and be a better listener to her constituents.” GOP operatives say it’s too early to tell whether frustration with Roby for bucking Trump could translate into a primary threat for 2018. For one thing, it’s not yet clear how Trump performed in Roby’s district. Presidential results by congressional district haven’t been calculated yet. Since Trump’s surprising victory, some of his congressional GOP critics have sounded a conciliatory tone. That includes Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake, whose opposition to Trump has already earned him a 2018 primary challenger. Former state Sen. Kelli Ward, a Trump enthusiast, announced even before the election that she will challenge Flake in two years.

Hijab-wearing woman describes San Jose State attack By MARK GOMEZ and JASON GREEN The Mercury News TNS

Esra Altun was walking back to her car at San Jose State University on Wednesday afternoon when someone grabbed her hijab from behind and yanked it backward. The 19-year-old sophomore psychology student struggled to breathe as the man pulled hard at her head scarf inside the third floor of the West Garage. “I was trying to gasp for air,” Altun said. “I couldn’t say or do anything. I was paralyzed.” The attack lasted just a few seconds. Altun fought back by leaning forward, and when her attacker let go she fell hard to her knees. The attacker did not say a word during the attack, Altun said. The attack came a day after the election, which saw a charged presidential campaign season culminate in the election of Republican Donald Trump, who at one point proposed a total ban on the immigration of Muslims to the United States. University police told Altun they could not treat it as a hate crime, but she believes it was racially motivated. “It happened a day after Trump was announced as presidentelect,” Altun said. “If it was for another reason, it’s such a weird coincidence.” In a separate case, a Muslim

student at San Diego State University was assaulted and robbed in a campus parking lot. Authorities say the woman, who was wearing a hijab, was targeted because of her faith and that the suspects made comments about Trump’s election, according to the Associated Press. The assault and robbery are being investigated as a hate crime. The woman was not injured. The suspects stole her keys, and the vehicle was later reported missing, AP reported. In a statement, SDSU President Elliot Hirshman denounced the assault, calling hate crimes destructive to the spirit of the campus. “I’ve experienced racism for my religion since age 9,” Abdelrahman said. “I think Trump is the cause of a lot of segregation and division between people. I think racism always occurs around the world. This is a topic that needs to be addressed.”

Bannon appointment provokes angry rebukes, white nationalists’ endorsement By EVAN HALPER

Tribune Washington Bureau TNS

Donald Trump’s effort to rebrand himself as a unifier and open-minded negotiator were drowned out by an angry national backlash over his naming of an enthusiastic promoter of white nationalism as his chief strategist in the White House. The appointment of Breitbart News media executive Stephen K. Bannon, who also served as CEO of Trump’s campaign, was met with dismay and loud rebuke from mainstream Jewish and Muslim groups, civil rights organizations and many Republicans. It leaves Republican congressional leaders who have been sanguine about Trump’s prospects for unifying the nation scrambling to shift the conversation, or at least to profess they don’t know about Bannon’s

(TNS) Stephen Bannon, former Breitbart News executive chairman and chief executive of Donald Trump’s campaign, was named chief strategist and senior counselor by the president-elect.

well-documented relationship with the far right. And it quickly mobilized Democrats to warn that Trump is further empowering the hate groups rejoicing in his victory. GOP strategist John Weaver, who helped run the presidential campaign of Ohio Gov. John Kasich, tweeted that “the next president named a racist, anti-Semite as the co-equal of the chief of staff.” A poster on the neo-Nazi website

Daily Stormer wrote: “Bannon is our man in the White House.” Trump supporters scrambled to define Bannon as something other than the right-wing firebrand who turned Breitbart into what former staffer Ben Shapiro describes as a platform for “white ethnonationalism” and a “cesspool for white supremacist meme makers.” “That’s not the Steve Bannon that I know, and I’ve spent a

lot of time with him,” said Reince Preibus, the Republican National Committee chairman who was named Trump’s chief of staff at the same time the Bannon appointment was announced Sunday. “Here’s a guy who’s a Harvard Business School, London School of Economics, 10-year Naval officer advising admirals. He was a force for good on the campaign at every level that I saw, all the time.” Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway recited the same credentials during a short interview outside Trump Tower, additionally citing Bannon’s former job as a Goldman Sachs partner and his time in Hollywood. “Brilliant tactician,” she said. Bannon’s personal life has been as stormy as his life in politics. An ex-wife accused him of attacking her in 1996, leading to charges of domestic violence, which were ultimately dismissed when pros-

ecutors said they could not locate the accuser. Later, in 2007, during divorce proceedings, Bannon’s ex-wife alleged that he repeatedly made anti-Semitic remarks as the couple toured Los Angeles private schools for their daughters. She said Bannon asked the director of the Westland School, “Why there were so many Hanukkah books in the library?” As the couple pondered the Archer School for Girls, Bannon’s exwife alleged in her deposition, he “went on to say the biggest problem he had with Archer is the number of Jews, that attend. He said that he doesn’t like Jews and that he doesn’t like the way they raise their kids to be ‘whiny brats’ and that he didn’t want the girls going to school with Jews.” Bannon, who ultimately sent his children to the Archer School, has denied ever making any such comments.

EDITORIAL TGITB: Thank goodness it’s Thanksgiving Break

By the time Thanksgiving break rolls around, it’s safe to say that college students are ready for – or in desperate, life-ordeath need of – a break. Here’s how The Penn staff is planning to make this break as relaxing, but productive, as possible: Samantha Barnhart, Editor-in-Chief: I’m excited to spend some quality time with my family and new kitten, Evelyn Mosby, and go to Niagara Falls, but a lot of my break will be spent working on homework and grad school applications. Casey Kelly, Managing Editor: Though it’s important to spend time catching up with friends and family, it’s also important to realize that we still have two weeks of class left before finals. I’m going to try not to get too comfortable in vacation mode just yet – Winter Break is just around the corner. Chris Hayes, Copy Editor: I am happy to say I will be

spending some of the break in Minnesota to celebrate the holy matrimony of our former editor-in-chief, Cody Benjamin, and his fiancée. Other than that, I plan to relax at home for most of the week and get some projects done. Alexandria Mansfield, News Editor: During the break, I will be visitng my twin sister in North Carolina and drowning in projects due before the end of the semester. Jason Daquelente, Culture Editor: Every year my family and I go bowling the night before Thanksgiving. I’m going to bowl over 100 this year. Sean Fritz, Sports Editor: I’m looking forward to sitting on the couch and watching football all day long with no distractions other than stuffing my face. Kevin Smith, Photo Editor: Given the election of a climate change denier into the White House, I will be traveling to Standing Rock in North Dakota to make a documentary. Kelsea Oravic, Graphic Designer: I plan on spending my break working and catching up on homework. When I am not doing either of those things, I will be sleeping or hanging out with family.

Those of us who didn’t vote for Trump should help him succeed now By JAMES K. GLASSMAN The Dallas Morning News TNS

Like a majority of voting Americans, I cast my ballot for Hillary Clinton. What makes me a little unusual is that I am a Republican who was voting for a Democrat for president for the first time since 1976. You might be surprised, then, to learn that I am optimistic about what happens next, and that I hope other Republicans in my boat will help the new president succeed, offering their advice and (if Trump isn’t blackballing us #NeverTrumpsters) their services. Why hopeful? Well, Trump is smart enough to know that there is a lot of important work to be done and a country to unite. As a result, I doubt Trump will kick off his presidency with his most disturbing promises: expelling undocumented immigrants, prosecuting Hillary Clinton, filing lawsuits against the women who said he groped them, somehow making Mexicans pay for a wall that most Americans don’t want, banning Muslims from entering the country, killing trade deals.

Opinion

He has backtracked on some of these promises already. Others, I suspect, he will fudge or kick down the road, and even his most ardent supporters won’t mind. They are happy to have him in the White House. Second, with Republican control of the House and Senate, Trump has an unusual – and perhaps fleeting – opportunity. Barack Obama had only two years with control of Congress; George W. Bush had four (plus four months); Bill Clinton, two. I hope Trump will break Washington gridlock by using the time for job one, which is getting the economy moving again after a decade of subpar growth. He should concentrate on improving infrastructure, reforming corporate taxes, paring regulation and expanding the chances for Americans to get a better education. Most Americans will back him. Other than on immigration, Trump seems to have the right instincts for domestic policy, but on foreign policy and national security, he needs a lot of help. The threats are ominous: a more aggressive Russia and China, ISIS, the growing use of cyber-weapons and Europe’s coming apart at the seams (which Trump will soon

learn is not as salutary as he thought). Most members of Trump’s national security team during the campaign were second-rate. That might not have been his fault because so few State, Defense and intelligence community veterans from previous administrations would work with him. They should now. If the president calls, it is their patriotic duty to respond. To get an indication whether this administration will succeed, look at the people Trump appoints to key national security jobs in the next few months. Another task for Trump during the time before taking office is meeting with foreign leaders, getting to know them as colleagues and friends. This was not President Obama’s strong suit, and it hurt him. Trump is viewed largely with alarm by our allies in Europe, Latin America and Asia, but his oversized personality may help him overcome the skepticism. And speaking of personality, one big question is whether Trump can temper his temperament. By a 64-percent-to-34-percent margin, exit polls found voters saying Trump lacked the “temperament to serve.”

November 15, 2016

He has all the worrisome traits of a narcissist: an overwhelming desire to be loved and a need to punish people who criticize him. He probably won the election by keeping these urges in check during the final week or two of the campaign. That is a lesson for his time in office as well. If he forgets it, this country will be at serious risk. In 2008, I was working in the State Department as an appointee of President George W. Bush. I loved the job, and one day, when I was lucky enough to have a meeting with him, I gushed to the president, “Thank you for letting me work for you!” I was surprised when President Bush seemed a bit irritated. He snapped back, “You don’t work for me. You work for the American people.” He was, as usual, dead right. President Obama has shown in recent days that the best way to work for the American people is to give Donald Trump the kind of support, moral and intellectual, that every president needs. All of us – including former Republican officeholders who, like me, voted for Hillary Clinton – should be doing the same.

‘Die Fledermaus’ operetta blends music, theater departments for first time By SAMANTHA BELL Lead Culture Writer S.M.Bell@iup.edu

“Die Fledermaus,” a story of an elaborate, masked ball with several twists and turns, will run from Dec. 2 to 4 in Fisher Auditorium. The performance provides an opportunity for audiences to experience a startling view of urban life. IUP’s production of this unique work will be enhanced through the amazing talent behind the scenes. “We are bringing in an IUP alumnus as the conductor of the show,” said Oliver Lo,

director of the performance and assistant professor of voice. Michael Borowitz, an IUP alumnus, is a professional opera conductor and a professor at Louisiana State University. During his time at IUP, he studied music education. “This is the first co-production of an opera between departments of music and theater,” Lo said. The two departments typically collaborate on musicals, not operas. “In other words, the production value will be high,” Lo said.

“Die Fledermaus” is considered an operetta, meaning it is a light opera. “It should be entertaining enough for non-operagoers,” Lo said. Cast members share the excitement for the upcoming production. “This is one of the most fun shows I have ever been a part of,” Gino Parillo, (sophomore, vocal performance) said. Parillo will play Gabriel Von Eisenstein, a protagonist in the performance. “Being casted in this production is an incredible experience because it gives me the opportunity to work with some of the

most talented staff and faculty we have on campus,” Parillo said. Everyone involved in the production is hopeful about the audience’s reaction. “The music is upbeat and very catchy, so you will be leaving the hall whistling the tunes,” Parillo said. “Also, ‘Die Fledermaus’ is a comedy, so you will be laughing and having a great time with us.” The Dec. 2 and 3 shows will begin at 7 p.m., and the Dec. 4 show will start at 2 p.m. Tickets are available at the box office in the Hadley Union Building and through the IUP Lively Arts’ webpage.

The free event will feature activities such as manicures, pedicures, massages, video games, basketball and spades. STATIC cultural events chair Elisha Eady (senior, psychology) and vice cultural events chair Callie Campbell (junior, history) are in charge of the event. This event is just one out of 15 that the committee puts on each semester. “The event came to us when the entire STATIC [executive] board was brainstorming ideas for the semester,” Campbell said. “We realized we needed to meet the need of the students who are so often tired and stressed by this

point in the semester. “We wanted to find a way to reach them and help them relax.” Instead of getting a nail salon to do the manicures and pedicures, the girls decided to make it into a do-it-yourself event. “The event is DIY style, so we’ve purchased all the supplies for people to come and use themselves,” Campbell said. All of the members work together to pull off the events, but the three chairs get assigned an equal amount of events per semester. “[We each handle] around four events a semester,” Eady said. “We all help plan and organize every event and see which events go along with each chair.” The next event STATIC will host is the Joey Bada$$ concert Nov. 30 in the HUB Ohio Room. The doors open at 7 p.m. and the show begins at 8 p.m. Tickets are $10 with an I-Card and $20 to the public.

‘Church Basement Ladies’ to take KCAC stage

(Facebook)

These ladies come out from the basement to bring good tidings.

By STEPHANIE BACHMAN Lead News Writer S.L.Bachman2@iup.edu

The original musical “Church Basement Ladies” that premiered in 2005 at Plymouth Playhouse in Minneapolis was so successful that it spawned five sequel musicals, including their Christmas-themed show, “Away in the Basement: A Church Basement Ladies Christmas.” Two performances of the play will be performed at 2 and 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Kovalchick Convention and Athletic Complex. “Church Basement Ladies” was inspired by the books “Growing Up Lutheran” by Janet Martin and Suzann Nelson. Playwrights Jim Stowell and Jessica Zuehlke wrote the original, and Greta Grosch wrote the other installments. Drew Jansen was the composer for four of the plays, including the Christmas special. Dennis Curley was the composer for two of the musicals. The play originally ran for twoand-a-half years with 12 shows a week, including a double cast. Because of the success of the show, five sequels were produced. The latest sequel, “Rise Up, O Men!” has been running at the Plymouth Playhouse since August. The shows are a celebration of the women who selflessly give their time to their church to help run the kitchen. Curt Wollan, producer of the show, described the premise of the show and what audience members can expect. “We all know [church basement

ladies],” Wollan said. “They were our grandmothers, our aunts, our mothers, and this was their way of service to their church. They were also best friends and loved each other very much. From the matriarch who runs the kitchen to the young mother, all had their place in this special world. “[The show] is very funny and the songs are all hummable. [The audience] can expect to laugh and cry and take home some memories they might have forgotten.” The cast of the show consists of four ladies and one man. The show features humor, singing and some dancing. It gives audience members a glimpse into the lives of women who have dedicated their time to serve their church and community. Also, Wollan said the timing of the Christmas show is perfect because it can hopefully get the audience in the holiday spirit and “maybe take them away from the problems we face today for just a little while.” Wollan described it as a nice departure from more traditional holiday shows such as “The Nutcracker” and “A Christmas Carol.” John Tsafoyannis is general manager for Troupe America, Inc., which is the touring company that is bringing “Church Basement Ladies” to Indiana. “It is an upbeat and funny musical for the entire family celebrating the ‘basement’ ladies of the church, their lives, tribulations and hopes,” Tsafoyannis said. “You do not need to be a Lutheran to appreciate the show. In every religion known, there exists a version of a ‘church basement lady.’”

‘Friends’ teaches meaning of Thanksgiving

(YouTube)

Chandler served grilled cheese for Thanksgiving in “The One Where Underdog Gets Away.”

By TORI STROMBERG Staff Writer T.J.Stromberg@iup.edu

This article contains opinion. The hit television series “Friends” showed its fans all of the struggles Thanksgiving offers, but all of the love and laughter that comes along with those struggles, too. Here are three of our favorites:

1)“The One Where Underdog Gets Away” Monica and Ross are trying to survive their first Thanksgiving without the help of their parents. Monica agrees to make a Thanksgiving dinner for all of the friends, which turns out to be a difficult task, as everyone is requesting different types of mashed potatoes, and Chandler hates the holiday. Rachel is upset about not being able to go to her annual family trip to Vail, Colo., because she decided to become independent and cannot make enough money. If things couldn’t get any worse, the friends accidentally lock themselves out of Monica’s apartment. When they finally get back in, the apartment is engulfed in smoke and Monica’s first Thanksgiving dinner made by herself is ruined. After, when they witness their neighbor across the street – who normally spends days alone – with a woman for dinner, they discover what Thanksgiving is about: being together for the holiday.

2) “The One Where Ross Got High” Thanksgiving is a day to reminisce on the good times and the bad. Thanksgiving is also a day when families reveal unknown truths and create new memories

together. In the sixth season’s Thanksgiving episode, Monica has to convince Ross to tell his parents the truth about who was smoking pot in his bedroom when he was in college. Ross was the one who smoked pot but blamed it on Chandler, which doesn’t fare well for Monica’s parents because she and Chandler are living together. The lesson we can take away from this episode is that we will always do things for loved ones. This episode can also teach us to be honest. Even though it may hurt someone’s feelings, they will appreciate it and hopefully accept you in the end.

3) “The One with the Rumor” In the eighth season, Brad Pitt made a guest appearance on the show as Will, Monica’s fat best friend from high school. Will shows up 150 pounds thinner and with a new outlook on food. Will wows everyone with his looks, including Rachel. Rachel does not recall being mean to Will in high school and tries to apologize. Will explains how he and Ross created an “I Hate Rachel Green Club” and started a rumor about Rachel, but in the end he accepts the apology. This episode teaches us that though the holiday may bring hostility, it can be diffused if you step back and realize why you are with the people you are spending the holiday with. It also teaches us the impact of apologies and of not holding grudges. We could all learn a thing or two from “Friends” this holiday season. “Friends” is available on Netflix.

Crimson Hawks secure blowout win on Senior Day, prepare for postseason matchup By EVAN MCCUE Staff Writer

E.M.McCue@iup.edu

The No. 11 IUP Crimson Hawks football team had an opportunity to secure a spot for themselves in the NCAA Division II playoffs Saturday afternoon with a win over the 6-4 Bloomsburg University Huskies at Miller Stadium. The team once again had to establish the FOOTBALL ground game, as they were without their starting quarterback, Lenny Williams (redshirt sophomore, accounting). Over the course of the past few weeks, Chris Temple (junior, accounting) has been the answer in the running game, and Saturday was no different. He was virtually uncontainable in the first half, racking up 164 yards and three touchdowns on 22 carries, averaging about 7.5 yards per carry. Temple has now put up more than 300 yards and punched in four touchdowns in his past two games. His standout performance Saturday did not go unnoticed, as he was named IUP Athlete of the Week. “I feel good about the way we’re playing,”’ Temple said. “We’re coming together as a team. We’re gonna ride this one out.” Quarterback Mike Pietropola (sophomore, education) made his first career start that was ultimately highlighted by a 58-yard touchdown run to start the second half. He finished the day with four

completed passes on nine attempts for 80 yards, including a touchdown and an interception. The recipient of all four of Pietropola’s completed passes was Walt Pegues (junior, communications media), who served as a solid, dependable target for the young quarterback. A majority of his 80 yards came off a shovel pass that he ripped off for a 60-yard touchdown early in the third quarter to give IUP a commanding 35-6 lead. Special teams came through for the Crimson Hawks late in the third quarter to seal the deal, as Anthony Davis (redshirt sophomore, finance) scooped up a punt that was blocked by Nick Amendola (freshman, safety sciences) and returned it 18 yards for a touchdown. IUP went on to win the game, 42-13, on Senior Day to finish the regular season with a 9-1 record. The Crimson Hawks were granted a bid for the NCAA Division II Football Championship, as they will enter the Atlantic Region of the bracket as the fifth seed out of seven teams and will take on the No. 4 seed, Fairmont State University. Other teams in the region include No. 1 seed California University of Pennsylvania, No. 2 seed Long Island University Post, No. 3 seed Shepherd University, No. 6 seed Assumption College and No. 7 seed Winston-Salem State University. The winner of IUP’s first game will then head to Cal U to take on the top-seeded Vulcans. Fairmont State’s claim to fame is defense, as they limit their opponents to 15.1 points per game and, more importantly, only 95.5 rushing yards per game. Coach Curt Cignetti has an overall record of 3-2 in the Division II playoffs. Saturday’s game will be played at noon in Fairmont, W. Va.

IUP volleyball headed to postseason for first time in more than a decade By JED JOHNSON Staff Writer

J.N.Johnson3@iup.edu

Despite dropping both of its matches against California University of Pennsylvania and Seton Hill University, the IUP Crimson Hawks volleyball team clinched its first playoff appearance since 2004. The team won a tiebreaker with Clarion University to VOLLEYBALL make the playoff field. IUP finished the regular season with a 19-10 overall record and 10-8 conference record. It was the Crimson Hawks’ first winning record in conference

(IUP Athletics) The 2016 volleyball team is the first team since 2004 to make the postseason.

play since 2010 (10-9) and best conference record since 2004 (6-4), when the Pennsylvania State Athletics Conference counted only the PSAC West in its conference record. “I think it is a testament to the players and their willingness to learn and strive for excellence,” Crimson Hawks head coach Scott Pennewill said. “Our team sees opportunity in everything we do. “We borrowed the slogan from

this past summer's Olympics and our U.S. Women's National Team's ‘We like tough.’ In essence, bring on the challenges, and we will face them head-on.” Jessica Marut (sophomore, undecided business) said that consistency and experience have been the team’s biggest improvements in the two years that she’s been a part of the program. “If we have a bad game, we don't necessarily play at as low of

a level as we may have last year,” Marut said. “Everyone that is playing for majority has played at this level before.” The Vulcans defeated the Crimson Hawks Friday, winning the first, second and fourth sets, 25-22, 2521 and 25-17. IUP won the third set, 25-23. Natalie Cignetti (junior, natural sciences) led the Crimson Hawks with 19 kills. Lily McWilliams (senior, nutrition and dietetics) and Kaitlyn Palmer (senior, biology and pre-med) each hit double-digit kill totals, recording 10 kills each. Palmer tied her career best single-game kill total, with the other occurrence in her second game of her freshman year at home against Cedarville University in September 2013. Pennewill believes that Palmer is a good team player. “For Kaitlyn, her role is now expanding, and everything she has done and experienced for the last four years is now going to prepare her and our team for the playoffs,” Pennewill said. “I have complete trust in KP that she can get the job done.” The Crimson Hawks were outhit by the Vulcans, .188 to .112. Seton Hill swept IUP in straight sets Saturday, 25-14, 26-24 and 2521. McWilliams led the Crimson Hawks with 13 kills. Defensively, Lindsay Moeller (senior, early childhood and special education) and Marut led the Crimson Hawks with 14 and 12 digs, respectively. IUP was outhit by Seton Hill, .083 to .231. Overall, Pennewill believes that this season was a success. “Our ‘Big Rocks’ – that is, team goals – are what has guided us this entire season,” Pennewill said. “We talk about and work toward meeting those goals everyday in practice, so that we are ready for opportunities when they arise. “When we focus on the process, the outcomes take care of themselves. That is reflective of

our team record, individual accomplishments and having a clear vision of what this program represents.” IUP finished the season ranked in the top five in opponent hitting percentage, opponent assists, opponent kills, opponent blocks and opponent service aces. “We have worked very hard on improving defense areas of our team this season, and really it began during spring ball,” Pennewill said. “Still, the main factor in success in our sport is winning the serve/serve-receive battle and hitting efficiency. Those two things are much higher in importance before talking about defense. “Our serving game has improved so much in a year, which then makes playing defense a little easier since the opponent is out of system more often. It doesn't always have to be an ace to be a ‘little victory’ in that rotation. Making a team one-dimensional is a very important part of having a successful defensive team, which starts with the serve.” The Crimson Hawks will travel to second-seeded Edinboro University Tuesday for the quarterfinals. Pennewill believes that the team has to focus on “controlling the controllables.” “The ability of a team to play their best, when their best is required, is hallmark to postseason play,” Pennewill said. “Every player is going to have to call upon their best effort, every single time we take the floor, from this point on in the PSAC Championships.” Marut believes that reviewing the film of the last match against Edinboro will allow the team to fix what went wrong for today’s match. “I'll give credit to Edinboro's offense – they have a lot of speed,” Marut said. “That is something we will have to keep up with. “Overall, serving and servereceive are always a crucial part of the game that we focus on winning, along with being able to hit with a full toolbox.”

Men’s basketball off to good start, picks up two weekend wins by large margins

(Ishaaq Muhammad/ The Penn) Guard Anthony Glover (junior, marketing) led the Crimson Hawks in assists in Friday night’s win over Lincoln University.

By JARROD BROWNE Lead Sports Writer

J.W.Browne@iup.edu

IUP has opened up the regular season with a 2-0 record. The Crimson Hawks opened up the season with a 101-82 victory Friday over Lincoln University. IUP was led by Blake Danielak (junior, finance and legal studies), who tallied a game-high 18 points. Despite the offensive outburst, IUP was not pleased with its defensive performance. “We were doing a decent job talking on Friday, but I think we can always improve,” Danielak said. The Crimson Hawks were able to improve defensively and bring home a victory in their second game of the year Saturday when they defeated Urbana University, 91-74. Danielak once again led IUP in scoring with 17 points, but received help from his team as four other Crimson Hawks recorded 10 or more points. Following Danielak on Saturday’s scoring list was Jacobo Diaz

(sophomore, kinesiology) with 16 points, Dante Lombardi (sophomore, business) with 14 points, Brandon Spain (senior, communications media) with 13 points and Malik Miller (freshman, communications media) with 11 points. “I think it was two good team victories,” Danielak said. Coach Joe Lombardi is happy with the team’s early start, as well. “I’m pleased the guys were able to respond to the challenge in front of us,” Lombardi said in a Sunday article in The Indiana Gazette. “You don’t win a championship, you build one, and you also have to build a team no matter how many guys you have back. “I’m happy with the way they are responding.” IUP will have a very short time to rest and prepare for its next challenge, as the Crimson Hawks will host Bowie State University Tuesday night for its final game in the S&T Bank Atlantic Region Challenge. Although IUP is excited to begin play in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference, they are focused on the task at hand. “I think we are going to take it one game at a time,” Danielak said. “Our biggest game of the year is the next game ahead.” The Bowie State game will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the Kovalchick Convention and Athletic Complex Tuesday night.

(Ishaaq Muhammad/ The Penn) Glover was also one of the leading scorers in the victory over Lincoln with a tally of 14 points. He added 9 points and four assists in Saturday’s win, as well.

Women’s basketball falls short in first two games of season By SARAH MOLTZ Staff Writer

S.J.Moltz@iup.edu

The IUP women’s basketball team traveled to Shippensburg University Friday for its seasonopener in the Wolf’s Bus Lines Classic tournament. The Crimson Hawks played first against Bowie State University, losing, 59-45. Forward Megan Smith (junior, human resources) scored 16 points and grabbed nine rebounds, but the team shot just 26 percent from the floor. Eight of Smith’s rebounds were defensive, with an addition of

three assists and a block. A 3-pointer by guard Carolyn Appleby (sophomore, safety science) helped pick up the Crimson Hawks offense in the third quarter. However, Bowie State responded by scoring 10 straight points to take the lead into the fourth quarter. Appleby had a total of 9 points, with one assist and one block. As a team, the Crimson Hawks had 40

rebounds and three steals against Bowie State. On Saturday, IUP battled University of Virginia-Wise, falling, 5451, in its second game. Appleby scored a game-high 17 points and Smith added 16 points. Smith and Appleby’s 33 combined points were more than half of the Crimson Hawks’ overall total. Along with her 16 points, Smith had one assist, one block and a

steal and was 2 for 3 from 3-point range. With 17 points, Appleby went 1 for 7 from 3-point range, with an addition of two assists and one steal. Forward Brittany Robinson (sophomore, early childhood/ special education) grabbed 11 rebounds, blocked four shots and had two steals for the Crimson Hawks. After this week’s tournament, Smith was named to the All-Tour-

nament team with an average of 16 points and six rebounds. Smith also shot 48.1 percent from the field. IUP continues its season next weekend with a pair of Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference crossover games Saturday at Lock Haven University and Sunday at Bloomsburg University. The team will look to rebound after the disappointing start, and have a good opportunity to with two games in PSAC play.
