FAFSA recognizes same-sex parents By PAOLA MARIZAN Staff writer

No Smoking

BARS REMAIN SMOKE-FREE By BOBBY SHIPMAN Staff writer

Mardi Gras festivities packed Franklin Street with beads, booze and merriment last weekend in honor of the gluttonous holiday. Whether a bar-goer fancied a funky vibe, a hipster hangout or an all night dance-party, Franklin had it all. Unless one was in search of a smokier atmosphere. Although the Indiana Supreme Court ruled Evansville’s 2012 smoking ban unconstitutional, the majority of bar and private club owners chose to keep their establishments smoke-free despite winning the lawsuit to overturn the law. Lauren McCrary, a senior public relations and advertising major, said she thinks the bars just wanted to have the rights returned. “I think everyone has their own opinions and rights,” McCrary said. “I think smokers have the right to choose if they want to smoke inside or outside and businesses have the right to choose if they are smoking or non-smoking. The ban is kind of taking away those rights.” McCrary started smoking in high-school and although she is attempting to quit, she said she is glad the ban was overturned. She works at Tin Man Brewing Company, and often visits the nearby PG Café and Gallery and Lamasco’s Bar and Grill. She said she would hate it if they allowed smoking. “I would probably still go (to PG and Lamasco’s), it just wouldn’t be quite as comfortable,” she said. “Personally, as a smoker, I really don’t like going in and sitting in a bar filled with smoke. I would much rather just step outside.” Lamasco’s owner Amy Rivers-Word said she became ecstatic when she the smoking ban was first implicated because of her asthma. “For me I had terrible, terrible trouble the first couple years when I bought the bar, I had double-pneumonia every year,” Word

said. “I was constantly sick, constantly losing my voice.” Word said she had always wanted to become non-smoking but was unsure how it would affect business. “Once the ban came through and we immediately had no difference in our numbers and in fact very soon afterwards we actually started to see an increase in revenue,” Word said. “We realized that it is really no big deal to step outside and have a cigarette.” Word said returning to smoking would have hurt business because smoker have become accustom to going outside and although many complain she, as well as other bar owners, tries to keep her customers happy. “A bunch of us all made really nice patios,” she said. “We have heaters in fact. We go through about $200 a week in propane just making sure that we keep our smokers more (comfortable).” Dalton Elpers enjoyed an evening out on Saturday. The junior business management major relaxed in the back left corner of the dimly lit Sportsman’s Bar and Grill with two friends. Elpers said he was unaware the smoking ban was struck down, but he is glad his favorite bars remained smoke-free. A Wadesville, Ind., native, he frequents a local St. Wendel hangout - Silver Bell. “(Silver Bell) used to allow smoking, and there was just so much smoke in there that your eyes watered,” Elpers said. “I just don’t like the smell. I don’t like smelling like cigarette smoke. It is just inconvenient. I would rather go home and drink there.” Elpers’s pal from St. Wendel, Lane Koester, chimed in. “You go to the boat and you come home and you’re coughing and your frickin’ throat is dry and your clothes stink,” Koester said. “As far as bars go, I don’t feel like you need smoke in them. If you want to have a cigarette, you can go outside.”

Koester said whether a bar allows smoking or not certainly factors into his nightlife decisions. “You don’t want to go to a bar where you feel like you’re going to sit down and drink a beer and it’s going to taste like a cigarette,” he said. “It’s like drinking an ash tray.” RiRa’s Irish Pub, Lamasco’s Bar and Grill, Main Gate, Backstage and Sportsman’s were just a few of many bars who remained smoke-free within days of the ordinance ending. Peephole Bar and Grill proved less swift in their decision making telling The Shield they were “on the fence.” After about a week of returning to smoking status, the bar’s Facebook page on Feb. 25, stated: “The Peep is again non-smoking effective immediately. Thanks to those of you who gave constructive feedback and comments.” A blast of polarizing comments bombarded the post. Some mocked. “Look at the tear drops falling! You can handle drinking but not smoking? Bars used to be for people who took calculated risks,” one person commented. “Giving into a bunch of pu**ies will only give rise to new demands. Pretty soon they will demand Zima on tap and clean language only.” Others celebrated. “FANTASTIC!!!!!!! Thank you Steve Alsop (bar owner). We’ll definitely be there to support you.” Amy-Rivers Word said she is happy with her decision to remain smoke-free. “When the ban came through I was thrilled and I knew the Evansville could not be that much different than the rest of the country,” Word said. “I think at this point there are only 16 cities that have over 150,00 people that allow smoking laws in the U.S. So there was no question that our demographic (Evansville) was so different that a business model of smoking could not work here.”

Students question theatre safety Steven McCallister changed his major because he felt unsafe in Mallette Theatre. The former theatre major said the genie, an aerial lift truck; the scaffold, an elevated work platform used for lighting purposes; and electrical cables in Mallette are cause for concern. He witnessed someone move a genie while students were on it. He saw tools fall from a genie and said he is worried someone might get hit and killed. But his fear didn’t end once he left the department – he is concerned for the safety of other students, too. McCallister hopes that with the new theatre come safer working conditions. “I’ve never seen a harness or a hard hat,” he said. “(The new theatre) should take out a lot of what’s happening over there. I am mostly concerned about somebody falling from the scaffolding.” Theatre breaks OSHA regulations McCallister provided a slew of photos taken inside the theatre, which is located in the lower level of the Liberal Arts Center, The Shield is a designated public forum.

after The Shield received detailed information about potential safety hazards from two sources who wished to remain anonymous. One photo shows a blue Genie with three legs. The fourth leg rests on the floor next to the genie, unattached. According to an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standard, the brakes should be set and the outriggers, when used, should be positioned on pads or a solid surface. Wheel shocks should be installed before conducting an aerial lift on an

incline. A second photo of a scaffold shows only two outriggers, which are supports for the scaffold, where there should be four. According to OSHA regulations, any damaged or weakened scaffold - from any cause - should be immediately repaired and should not be used until the repairs have been made. Another photo shows two students working on a scaffold without harnesses or hard hats. THEATRE on Pg. 3

With the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) deadline right around the corner, students should be aware the Department of Education made changes to the FAFSA, which could affect students who live in same-sex households. Millions of students in need of financial assistance fill out the FAFSA every year. On this year’s application, students can select the “unmarried and both parents living together” option. Students who live in same-sex households can also add more than one parent to the application. “Mother” and “father” is now “parent 1 (with a father, mother or stepparent option)” and “parent 2 (with a father, mother or stepparent option).” The changes will not impact the majority of students, according to the Department of Education, but same-sex and unmarried household students could see a decrease in financial aid due to the addition of another parents’s income. USI Financial Aid Counselor Sean Riley said it is easy-to-read language following the Supreme Court’s June decision to strike down the Defense of Marriage Act, which prohibited agencies from recognizing same-sex marriages.

StartUp winners look ahead By PAOLA MARIZAN Staff writer

It’s the next big thing for StartUp Weekend 3.0 winners. The Greek BD team, composed of Kettering University students Aaron Simmons, Ryan Allen and USI student Adam Simmons (Aaron’s brother), won first place Feb. 23, after a weekend of preparation and presentations. Greek BD presented the idea of a software designed to manage fraternities, sororities and other Greek letter organizations. The software includes tools to manage memberships, finances and judicial cases. As the winners of Startup, Greek BD received an automatic entry to the preliminary competition of the Venture Sharks business competition. The winners of the competition, which is scheduled for April 16-17 in Louisville, Ky., will receive a package valued at more than $10,000. Second place went to Delicious Street, a product created by USI students Jason Litherland and Austin Craig, 2010 alumnus Kenny Lasley and Alan Strahinic, an Indiana State University student. The Delicious Street project is a proposition to develop an app which would allow users to STARTUP on Pg. 3

All students, faculty, staff and alumni are invited to the event, where Linda Bennett will address questions posed by a student panel. Breakfast will include a pancake, sausage and fruit buffet. Tickets may be picked up at the Alumni and Volunteer Services Office in University Center West. Students eat for free. Non-students must make reservations and purchase a $7 ticket. To make a reservation, call 812-464-1924.

Toast to the Arts The USI Society for Arts and Humanities will host the 23rd Annual Toast to the Arts at 6:30 p.m. Friday in Carter Hall. There will be a tapas buffet, a silent auction and a live auction. Admission is $100. For more information, contact C.J. Regin at cjregin@ usi.edu.

Trustees to meet today The Board of Trustees will hold its regular meeting at 10 a.m. today in Carter Hall.

FAFSA continued from Pg. 1 “In terms of the FAFSA itself, that’s really the only change,” Riley said. He said the FAFSA would be a more accurate representation of what the students’s status is, but the office does not have an exact number of how many students would be affected by the change. “There is help information at the right side of the

application,” Riley said. “If you call our office during our office hours, we can always help with that, too.” Riley said the Financial Aid office maximizes its availability and is always in contact with students. The Department of Education issued a press release in April of 2013 announcing the changes.

“All students should be able to apply for federal student aid within a system that incorporates their unique family dynamics,” U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan said in a statement. “These changes will allow us to more precisely calculate federal student aid eligibility based on what a student’s whole family is able

to contribute and ensure taxpayer dollars are better targeted toward those students who have the most need, as well as provide an inclusive form that reflects the diversity of American families.” The deadline to fill out and submit the FAFSA is Monday.

team,” Lasley said. Litherland said the experience was empowering. “I wanted to run a sandwich truck for a while,” said Litherland, who is hoping to get this idea on the market. Third place was awarded to Med Secure, created by USI students Adam Dennis, Mark Lewellyn, Michelle Muse, Cole Schafer and Joel Trewartha. Med Secure is a biolocking (fingerprint) device that could be integrated to medicine cabinets and drawers to avoid mis-

use and abuse of prescription medications. “Parents can keep their children safe,” said Lewellyn, a post baccalaureate student at USI. The team is planning on building a prototype to launch later into production. “We learned a lot,” Lewellyn said. “We got to do something we can later turn into a career.” He described the experience as fun. The creators are looking forward to completing the project and launching it into the market.

STARTUP continued from Pg. 1 request a food truck. The food truck driver will go wherever the most demand is. The food truck would be tracked in Google Maps so users could see where the food truck is at all times. “Food trucks are the new age of restaurants, where the restaurants come to you,” Lasley said. Food truck drivers could invest in advertising their product once the app is launched, he said. “The good thing about this is the timing,” Craig said. “The food truck industry is going to explode

in the next few years.” The team is still developing the idea and looking into possible investors to start designing it. Once the app is launched and tested, they hope to make the app accessible to other countries. “It’s got the potential,” Craig said. “There’s a lot of people interested.” The team is doing more research and improving its product. The team does have other projects, but will still work on this one. They described the experience as “huge and static.” “We have a pretty solid

phone, email or in person. “It keeps someone from getting hurt,” he said. Morrison said the electrical cables students expressed concern about are in a dead-end room where no one should be. He said it is true the genie should to have all four supports when workers are on it and students should be wearing harnesses if they are more than six feet above the ground. “We should question everything and not just mindlessly follow,” he said. Morrison wanted to correct the situation right away. He said he would talk to Angela Torres, management and marketing director of university theaters, to make a plan and correct the situation. “I can get over there today,” he said Feb. 17. “I rely on my colleagues who are safety professionals. There are a lot of things that our department takes care of.” Elliot Wasserman, chair of the performing arts department, was not aware of the situation either, but said he checks things periodically and takes action immediately if students notify him of their concerns. “I don’t think that they (the faculty) would deliberately ignore a real safety concern,” he said. He said if students broke the rules when faculty was not around, it does not indicate a lack of safety

teachings. “The proper safety is taught,” Wasserman said. “If harnesses are not available - I’m not saying that they’re not - but if they’re not, that situation has not been brought to my attention.” He said if harnesses were not available or missing, he would take care of it. But he is extremely pleased with the results of safety on stage. “I would not jeopardize the safety of any student,” Wasserman said. Solution or no solution? When The Shield asked Morrison Feb. 24, for updates on the situation, he forwarded questions to Steven Bridges, assistant vice president for business affairs and assistant treasurer. Bridges said risk management and the theatre department met for two hours Feb. 21. “This will all be a process,” Bridges said. “If someone brings up something, it is always good to address it globally.” The first step – place posters around campus with emergency contact information. Morrison said March 5, they are working to make things better, but he could not go into detail about it. Bridges said no updates have been made, but they will continue to evaluate the situation.

Monologues help bigger cause

Photo by BOBBY SHIPMAN/The Shield

English Instructor Alice Shen presents her monologue “The Vagina Workshop” during Tuesday night’s performance. Forum III was packed with only a few seats open.

By BRADIE GRAY Special to The Shield When senior philosophy major Hanna Friz decided to be a part of the Vagina Monologues, she had no idea she’d be demonstrating the various types of moans caused by intense orgasms in front of a live audience. During her monologue, “The Woman Who Loved to Make Vaginas Happy,” Friz portrayed a sex worker describing the sensual aspects of her career – which involved rolling on the floor demonstrating a “triple-orgasm moan” in front of a crowd of people. The preparation for this sketch took much more than memorizing lines. “I don’t advocate this, but I watched a lot of adult movies and things like that,” Friz said. “I studied a lot of animal behaviors,

and I prepared myself for not getting embarrassed.” She also listened to and watched previous Vagina Monologues and got help

-Hanna Friz Senior philosophy major from the other women performing to prepare for her sketch. All the practice Friz put in paid off when the audience erupted with laughter during her performance, some stifling their giggles with their hands and others slapping the desks in front of them in hysteria. “I was satisfied with the reaction, but I’m just happy I didn’t fall on my butt

with the help from the Philosophy Club, Faces of Feminism, Gender Studies and the Sociology, Anthropology and Criminal Justice Clubs as sponsors. The performance was made up of 17 individual monologues recited by various female students and faculty who volunteered. Mary Lyn Stoll, assistant professor of philosophy and adviser to the

the Vagina Monologues at my previous school,” Stoll said. “There were a lot of kids there excited about gender roles and overcoming violence against women and girls and they talked me into being a part of it. And when I came here, our scholastics president at the time, Jessica Jones, was also interested in it so we decided to go ahead and put it on here.”

Stoll, along with the rest of the performers, have worked on the monologues since the second week of the spring semester to create a memorable show. “There’s no requirement for drama background or theatre background for our performers, but because of that, we have to practice, practice, practice,” Stoll said. “We workshop every piece for over a month two times a week, two to three hours a night for each practice. It’s just a lot of work on everyone’s part to put it all together.” The Vagina Monologues is an episodic play written by Eve Ensler that was originally ran at the Westside Theatre off Broadway in 1996. It is now performed around the world every year with every script slightly different than the year before. “This is something that

people do all over the world. It’s not just USI, it’s not even just Evansville,” Friz said. “It’s people in Africa, people in India, people in England, people in France. There are people all over the place working on the same thing. Since gender based violence is global, it’s good to know that the fight against injustice is happening around the world.” All proceeds from the two-night event go the Willow Tree of Posey County, a domestic violence and sexual assault advocacy service, and 10 percent of proceeds go to the V-Day spotlight campaign, One Billion Rising. One Billion Rising is a campaign to draw global attention to the U.N. statistic that one in three women on the planet will be raped, beaten or mutilated in her lifetime.

Staying sober “G I R L”

Alcohol affects lives of students By JESSIE HELLMANN Staff writer Sophomore Molly Swihart didn’t realize her drinking was spiraling out of control until a doctor was leaning over her telling her she may die. She had overdosed on sleeping pills the night before because she had been drinking and couldn’t figure out how many to take. “That’s the moment I had gone too far and overstepped the line,” the elementary education major said. Swihart was part of the growing number of college students abusing alcohol. According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, about 25 percent of college students report academic consequences due to drinking, including missing class and falling behind. In 2012, 1,825 college students died from unintentional, alcohol-related injuries. Swihart said she began seeing the consequences of her drinking the second semester of her freshman year of college. “I made excuses that the classes were hard, but looking back now, I realize that I was drinking every single day, and I didn’t want to blame the

alcohol,” she said. “I just wanted to say I wasn’t smart enough or the teachers were mean.” She began sleeping through work and her friendships started to fall apart. “If someone wanted to hang out and not drink, I would make excuses and go out with someone else,” she said. After overdosing, she was somewhat coerced into seeking help and has been sober for four months. She even just received her first A on a test during her college career. “My friends are a lot happier with me, and I realized I have better relationships with people. It’s not just those ‘drinking friends,’” she said. “I lost a lot of friends because of this but they were people who were hurting my life. Christine Johnston, assistant program director for student wellness, said there are red flags to look for when a student thinks a friend may be abusing alcohol. “Students may talk the next day that they’re regretful for what happened,” she said. “We understand college students make choices, and they’re not always the healthiest, but it’s when a pattern of drinking or regrets are established.”

She said excessive drinking can impact students’s lives in different ways, including lower GPAs and engaging in risky behavior. “A lot of students who drink to excess or to unsafe levels - they engage in behavior they normally wouldn’t have engaged in sober, like sexual encounters with someone they wouldn’t have sex with sober, not using a condom, getting into a fight or damaging property,” she said. She also said that alcohol is associated with sexual assault. “The majority of times a sexual assault occurs, one or both individuals have been drinking,” she said. For safer drinking, Johnston encourages students to do things like order a glass of water with every alcoholic beverage, set a limit for how much to drink, eat before and while drinking and choose someone to be a “sober” driver. She also said not to leave drinks unattended and to throw away a drink that smells or tastes different. Students are also encouraged to call the police if someone is injured or appears to be in danger while drinking and not fear repercussions under Indiana’s medical amnesty law.

Available on iTunes Pharrell Williams had a good year in 2013. The longtime R&B singer-songwriter and music producer was able to revitalize his career with the success of billboard hits “Get Lucky” by Daft Punk and “Blurred Lines” by Robin Thicke, both of which he made guest appearances on. These songs seemed to rival one another thematically, as well as sonically, instigating a return to the retro funkiness of 1970s R&B and funk music. But more importantly, for Pharrell, both of these songs were infectiously catchy. So when I heard he was releasing a new album this year, I was expecting the same level of radio-friendliness. A couple days ago, I heard the song “Happy” for the first time.

It fit the mold of what I had in mind, but left more to be desired—capturing the sound and production quality of his other 2013 hits, but lacking in terms of its accessibility. I figured maybe the song was his “safe” song on the album and the rest of the album would make up for it. This was not the case. In fact, “Happy” is about the only song I can really get into on the entire album because nothing else works for me at all. “Marilyn Monroe” feels Rating 1.5/5

like an outdated tribute to early Usher, mixed in with some boy band influence a.k.a. the bad kind of R&B - which pairs nicely with “Brand New,” a duet with former N’Sync front man, Justin Timberlake, that is all over the place in terms of structure. It gets worse. “Gust of Wind,” featuring Daft Punk, pales in comparison to “Get Lucky” in just about every way imaginable, and the album’s second single, “Come Get It Babe,” featuring Miley Cyrus, manages to be both a rip-off of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” and one of the least-catchy and most cringe-worthy songs on “G I R L.” As his career peaked in 2013, maybe Pharrell should have considered retiring. Because it’s alldown-hill from here.

‘Ordinary beer does not compute’

Bartender Andrew Booker pours a glass of Tin Man’s beer that’s made in its own microbrewery in Evansville.

Craft I Series

By ROBERTO CAMPOS Staff writer

There are more than 2,700 microbreweries in the United States that produce craft beer for a group of people that enjoy its flavorful taste. Carson’s Brewery, Turoni’s Pizzery & Brewery and Tin Man Brewing Company are three Evansville microbreweries a part of a growing industry which has found its way on to local shelves and taps across the nation. This is the first of a five-part series dissecting local craft beer. Surrounded by the aroma of hops and production of beer, Nick Davidson sits in the back of a brewery located on Franklin Street, a brick building with the words ‘Tin Man Brewing Co.’ painted white on its exterior. Davidson, calm and in his element, boasts black-framed glasses, a multitude of ear piercings, a dark-red goatee and a gray mechanic style button-up shirt that hosts the Tin Man logo – a circle with a robot’s face in the center and the letters T and M. Tin Man Brewing Company opened its doors on Black Friday in 2012. Indiana has 82 registered microbreweries according to Lee Smith, executive director of Brewers of Indiana Guild. By definition, a microbrewery, also known as craft breweries, in Indiana. It operates on a small brewer’s permit, which allows each brewery in the state to produce up to 30,000 barrels of beer annually. Microbreweries produce small amounts of beer, commonly known as “craft beer,” characterized by its wide range of flavors and generally more expensive prices. They are known for producing a plethora of styles of beer which innovate and challenge the status quo of more mainstream brands. Davidson started brewing beer at home while attending The Illinois Institute of Art. After graduating, the Evansville native moved to Indianapolis and witnessed a craft beer movement - something which inspired his endeavor to create a brewery that combined his childhood love of robots and beer.

“I’ve always been into beer,” said Davidson, Tin Man president and owner. “I love the taste. There’s not really a style of beer I don’t like. … When you start to like something, you want to learn how it’s made and I think that’s why I got into making my own When you’ve been doing something for so long and it’s such a passion, if you can start a business and make it your profession, why wouldn’t you?” Microbreweries across America contribute to the $100 billion beer industry, according to an article by Forbes magazine. In the past five years, more than a third of those breweries have surfaced. Non-microbrewing companies like Anheuser-Busch - producers of Budweiser control the market share in the industry. “This is a trend happening throughout the country,” Smith said. “It’s very interesting because we’re in a rough economy and businesses are failing all over the place, and yet craft breweries, which offer more expensive beer – it’s more expensive than buying a case of Budweiser - they’re doing really well.” Smith said the success of microbreweries to people’s interest in buying local goods. “You have to remember that even though we are growing rapidly in Indiana, and in the country, we still only represent a total of 3 percent of beer consumption,” Smith said. Since its inception, Tin Man has earned numerous accolades, such as Entrepreneur of the Year from The Chamber of Commerce of Southwest Indiana and People’s Choice award for Brew Haven Craft Beer Festival. Despite the awards, Tin Man has had its struggles in its first year of business. Tin Man is one of three breweries in the country to use a “mash filter,” which helps conserve energy and water during the brewing process. The brewing company received one of the first mash filters from a company new to manufacturing it, and it didn’t function properly – Tin Man had to race to fix the vital piece of equipment. The brewing company also had to introduce craft beer to a population that’s used to drinking “light” beer, which might not be attuned to the taste of craft beer. “When you’ve drank light beer for so long and then have something that actually has flavor I think either a light goes off or it doesn’t,” Davidson said. “You either go ‘Wow, this is what I want to drink from now on, I can’t go back to the old stuff’ or you decided that it tastes just aw-

ful. I think that’s how it usually works for people.” Tin Man offers two different series of beers: the Converter Series and the Preci-

sion Series. To ease the Evansville community into the new beer, the Converter Series was created with the non-craft drinker in mind. The “Converter Series” beers serve as an introduction to craft beer and the wide range of tastes it can offer. This is a business strategy many microbreweries apply when first entering in a market, Smith says. The “Precision Series” beers offer tastes consumers of craft beer are accustomed to, tastes that span the spectrum of hoppy and fruity to malty or sour. Smith describes how microbrewing isn’t about making money, it’s about making a product they’re passionate about. “(Being a microbrewer) is about being truthful and honest about what you’re brewing, using quality ingredients,” Smith said. “For all of our brewers that I know in Indiana and outside of Indiana, it’s really not about the money. Sure they want to be successful, but that’s so they can keep doing something that they are really passionate about.” Jason Larrison, contributing editor at Hoosierbeergeek.blogspot.com, enjoys Tin Man’s beer and thinks the brewery has found its voice in the craft beer world, he said. “Evansville is kind of being disconnected from the rest of the state because of roads, but I think that corner of the state is ready for variety and local beers,” Larrison said. “Tin Man has come in at the right time.” To be successful, Tin Man uses the feedback it gets from the Evansville community. “I think the community helps shape Tin Man,” Davidson said. “That’s the nice thing about being a small business. You can take that feedback and use it immediately. If we’ve released a style of beer that people aren’t crazy about, instantly we can say we’re not brewing that anymore.” As for Tin Man’s future, Davidson wants to expand its distribution operation in Indiana, and eventually to the surrounding states. “I think craft beer is starting to change (the perception of beer as a blue-collar drink),” Davidson said. “Breweries like Dogfish Head that have created such a unique product, every beer is so different, they command a high price. I think that’s starting to show people that ‘Hey, we’re making good stuff and you can pair it with so many different things.’ It’s not just the working man’s drink.”

Drinking should be fun, not formulaic By BOBBY SHIPMAN Features editor For 21 years, I dreamt of the day I could legally walk into a bar and take a long swig of a whisky on the rocks. OK, so I might be exaggerating just a little. I mean, when I was a 5 year old, I wasn’t sneaking shots of tequila behind the jungle-gym with my one-eyed stuffed dog Heartnose (he had a heart for a nose). I had quite the imagination. I do remember, however, feeling as if I had been waiting my whole life as I took my first legal drink at T.G.I. Friday’s on a Wednesday afternoon. As I sipped on the pale

green concoction I selected as my premiere cocktail, I remember feeling somewhat grown-up. That feeling subsided hours later as I took shots at a local bar while my pal gave middle-aged women lap dances and threw popcorn into a homeless man’s mouth. Three years later, I long for the days when I was throwing “secret” parties at my parents’s house which consisted of drunken truth-or-dare and peanut shots (don’t ask). My statement is this: nightlife is not all that fantastic, especially in Evansville, Ind. Although, I could see the desperation of shallow-minded college stu-

Peephole patrons make righ choice By JAKE TAPLEY Staff writer On Feb. 11, popular Main Street destination Peephole Bar & Grill made a Facebook post asking for some feedback from their loyal patronage. The issue concerned the decision to allow smoking in the establishment again versus keeping it banned, and they received plenty of feedback, racking the comment count up to 202 in the thread - most of which I feel was relatively positive. People expressed their opinions on both sides, and it seemed to me like a pretty fair way to go about doing things. However, feedback took a turn for the worse when they announced their decision the next day. The following is an excerpt: “Thanks to everyone for the feedback. In addition to the numerous Facebook posts, we have received literally dozens and dozens of e-mails, texts, and phone calls from customers expressing their opinions. The feedback was about 2-1 in favor of allowing smoking. I was hoping for an overwhelming consensus, and to be honest it would have made life much easier for me if the majority favored nonsmoking. But, that didn’t happen…” This post went on to

make a proposition to its customers who opposed the decision, consistently operating on reason and utilitarian belief. But that didn’t stop the comment thread from being dominated, at times, by bitter opposition. Many people seemed to take personal offense to the decision, as if it were somehow being unfair to them. People even used words like “exclusive” and phrases like “backwardthinking,” which I found to be both inaccurate and petty. I, for one, would like to commend Peephole for taking the initiative to leave it up to its customers. If anything, this step was inclusive and operated using forward thinking. But on Feb. 22, Peephole made another post announcing that the decision had been reversed and that they would again be a nonsmoking facility. I assume they felt that the costs were going to outweigh the benefits. Personally, I would have to agree. If I were starting up my own business, and I had to designate it as either smoking or non-smoking, I would side with the latter. But, if I left it up to a communal vote, I would just hope that my customers remained faithful to their patronage or at least put forth a slight effort.

dents rumping each other in the bum-bums growing tiresome in any city. Try finding a niche which suits your personality. Don’t put on airs at a thoughtless cesspool like Maingate or Backstage. Unfortunately, Evansville lacks the diversity of bigger cities like Portland or Chicago, which is why I encourage board game nights. Whip out Sorry! or Monopoloy and change the rules to make it fun and weird. Then, invite your friends who can accept the fact that you just spent three hours altering the rules to a board game invented decades ago. Peculiarity should not

be confined to boards. Make up games that keep you active, such as the blindfolded runway challenge or spin around and see who barfs first. I am not saying one should stay in and drink every night and only socialize with people you know. I am simply cautioning one not to waste their nights going out on the town. Drinking at bars is expensive. Bars get crowded and sweaty and desperation smells like asshole. Also, I doubt all of your friends are drinkers. Why exclude them and potentially alienate a companion when you can include everyone?

I’m lying if I say going out is never fun, but you have to admit, weekly weekend offenders turn into formulaic zombies. Next time you go out on the town, follow my lead to avoid becoming uninteresting, shallow and pathetic. Try hiding steak sauce in your pants, blocking the bathroom entrance with a sofa, switching shoes with strangers, throwing darts at something other than the dartboard or dancing upside-down. Or, you could go out with the intentions of dancing and listening to good music, with good friends and feeling content in your own skin - with vodka.

Cyberbullying still an issue By BRENNA WU Staff writer Most have the unfortunate luck in experiencing bullying in grade school and high school. Some people might have been picked on for their physical features, academic abilities or even athletic skills. Cyberbullying is even worse - picking on people on the Internet for everyone to see. With cyberbullying, nothing is hidden. Everything is in full view for potential employers, college admissions, as well as family and friends to see. As people go into college that idea fades away because most are interested in meeting new people and learning about the college campus.

As incoming freshmen, most students are either added, or get added, to a page called USI Class of whatever 2017, 2018, etc. I found the page to be so helpful whenever I had questions, or even if I needed a pool of students to survey for a paper. I loved how useful and safe I felt talking to a bunch of “strangers” that I never met before. Already this semester, two incidences have occurred that made me feel unsafe and terrified. The first “post” involved a joke towards Homecoming and why the campus felt the need to have it. This post caused numerous complaints on the website and it seemed as if students were verbally arguing with one another. The post was later

taken down, but then another post was put up asking why a certain student, who started the Homecoming rant, was removed from the group. Many students, including myself, noted that some felt uncomfortable. And the response to myself and another girl on campus was to go f*ck ourselves. Many other students came in, but at that moment I felt scared. This page is focused on the sole purpose to let students ask questions and make friends, but if these events continue what is the university going to do? Maybe the idea of bullying never actually died. To some, it still fuels fire in their hearts. Should we as a campus project that image? Definitely not.

Women go past first round in GLVC By CHRIS PROCACINA Sports editor For the USI women’s basketball team, Sunday’s first round game of the GLVC Tournament shut the door on a decade of disappointment. The Lady Eagles (19-9, 13-6 GLVC) defeated the Miners of Missouri S&T (9-18, 5-14) in front of a diminished PAC crowd due to the hazardous weather conditions. Despite a slow start, USI gained the lead just over five minutes into the game and never looked back, snapping their winless streak in the tournament dating back to 2004. Junior guard Anna Hackert posted a doubledouble in the victory, (1310). “It was a tough game, and it feels really good to get that first win out of the way and go to the Ford Center,” Hackert said. The Eagles’s defense was the focus of the game. The Miners’s offense was stifled by 23 turnovers and a combined 12 steals by USI. The Eagles fought on offense, as well, with junior center Mary O’Keefe who tallied 10 points and senior guard Stephanie Carpenter who led all scorers with 20 points. “I think my teammates

helped me out with (scoring). They told me to keep shooting and we kept getting offensive rebounds off the misses so that helps,” Carpenter said. An early surge in the second half brought the Miners within nine points, but the Eagles quickly took back control to close the game out. USI Head Coach Rick Stein intends to continue relying on his team’s defense. “That’s what we’ve done all year really, especially in our wins, we have relied on defense,” he said. Following their win, the USI women had three members of the team named to the AllGLVC conference teams. Junior foreward Anna Hackert was unanimously named to first-team AllGLVC while senior guard Stephanie Carpenter made second-team All GLVC. Hackert and junior guard Autumn Miller were named to GLVC All Defensive Team. Stephanie Carpenter will also look to make history in the team’s quarterfinal game. She is 11 points shy of becoming 14th player in school history to score a thousand points. If she accomplishes the feat, she will join Anna Hackert as the second member on the

Multi-sport USI athlete travels around the world By DENNIS MARSHALL Staff writer Former USI soccer player Julia Kohnen said she will run cross country and track while she gets her Master’s of Business Administration (MBA) this fall. “It’s something completely new to me. I’m used to team sports involving the use of a ball,” Kohnen said. “But I have enjoyed what I have done so far and am excited for a new challenge.” During her four years at USI, Kohnen was twice named Academic AllGLVC and, ending her career, eighth all-time at USI in points, goals and assists. Kohnen said she loved all four years of playing soccer for USI. “The best part was the team — I loved the girls and being part of a team,” Kohnen said. “They became more than teammates, but good friends. We did everything together.” In her first meet, the Jerry England Open, Kohnen took first place in the women’s mile with a time of 5:03:33. Kohnen is now studying abroad at Harlaxton College located near Grantham, England. Kohnen has traveled to London, Wales, Greece, Germany, Ireland and other towns around England. She said she has seen everything from Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and the Parliament in London to the Acropolis, the Tem-

ple of Zeus and Olympic Stadium in Athens. “The trip has been amazing. I’ve already done so much and time is flying by,” she said. She said she has class Monday through Thursday then travels every Thursday through Sunday. “I usually plan my own trips with new friends here, but the school offers trips too,” Kohnen said. She said she climbed the tallest mountain in England (Snowdonia Mountain) and traveled to a nearby town, Nottigham, to watch a professional soccer team. “The atmosphere at the game was amazing and it was a lot of fun to see a game in England,” she said. “Futbol (soccer) is a much bigger sport here and the fans are so much fun.” She said she had an eye opening experience when she went to a Dachau concentration camp. “I got to see a real concentration camp and learn about everything and see what these people experi-

enced under Hitler’s control,” she said. “I can’t even explain how emotional but incredible it was to experience this and I learned so much.” Germany had other things to offer, as well. “We got a good experience of German culture through the food and beer.” She said she will also travel to Portugal, Spain, Amsterdam, Paris and Italy in the upcoming weeks. Kohnen said the most beneficial parts of this trip, academically, is learning and experiencing a whole new culture, “first-hand.” Kohnen said as far as athletics, this trip has been challenging. “I am training for track and cross country, but it is extremely challenging to train on my own while attending school and traveling every weekend,” Kohnen said. “This challenge has helped me grow and learn. But it is very different to have a semester away from everyday practice.” Kohnen found another way to stay active by joining the college’s basketball team. “It’s a coed team of four guys and three girls,” she said. “We play once a week and we play all male teams from across England, even traveling to some games.” Kohnen graduates on May 3 with Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration and minors in Marketing and Management, the same day she returns home from her trip.

Coach with cancer goes to tourney in Las Vegas

Photo courtesy of Sports Information

By CHRIS PROCACINA Sports editor USI women’s golf coach Don Bisesi is currently living the mind over body philosophy. About a month ago, Besesi was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. But despite the daily radiation and weekly chemotherapy, Besesi contends that his body is feeling fine, and finds a silver lining in his situation. “I’m just trying to stay real positive about everything and I am (positive). You know, the good thing is, I feel pretty good, and the other good thing is I’ve lost a little bit of weight,” Besesi said. “Even though it’s not a regular weight loss, I think that alone has made me feel better because I’ve dropped about 25 pounds.” Bisesi certainly has plenty to feel good about in the midst of adversity. He allows his mind to focus on other matters, such as the team’s trip to Las Vegas, Nev., for the High Desert Classic Tourna-

ment, which he was able to attend. He made the flight from Florida where he is currently receiving treatment. The women finished 7th out of the 14 teams participating, and were led by senior Taylor Merriss who came in 6th place of the 75 golfers present. “We’ve had to practice on our own, so everything has been up in the air for us,” Merris said of the team’s preparation. Despite the unusual start to the season, Bisesi was glad to have the opportunity to be with his team. “It’s kind of our nice trip. I try to take them to at least one nice place,” Bisesi said. “Plus, the coach likes the go out to Las Vegas.” This past winter, Bisesi first noticed something was wrong, but he never imagined cancer would be the culprit, he said. “I was having trouble eating a little bit and, you know, it was kind of getting stuck down in the pit of my stomach and some-

times it would come back up. But I thought I had a high-adle hernia, and I neglected getting that treated,” Bisesi said of his initial symptoms. Already a little more than a month into treatment, he acknowledged the difficulties in actively participating in team events and the daily activities he has grown accustomed to over the last 14 years at USI. “I’m involved with a really good hospital down here, it’s called the Cleveland Clinic, and you know I like my doctors and I’d hate to change them,” Bisesi said. The Cleveland Clinic was recognized by U.S. News & World Report’s ranking of Best Hospitals 2013-2014. “I’ve talked to some people and in some cases the radiation and the chemo has killed it all off actually,” Bisesi said. “Every cancer is different but at least there is hope for it.”

Coach continued from Pg. 7 Bisesi does have his worries, but they just aren’t for the reasons one may assume. “I’ve got to get Molly (English) healthy,” Bisesi said. “All winter she has had problems with pneumonia and different things. I just hope I can get her healthy for the season.” Bisesi, who was the first coach in school history to win the team GLVC tournament and the GLVC Coach of the Year award in 2011, has nothing but

admiration for how his team has handled the circumstances. “It’s really a swell bunch of girls,” he said. “They realize they’re going to have to work out on their own a lot and do a lot of practicing on their own, but they all like golf and we have actually a pretty good team.” Athletic Director Jon Mark Hall and several other USI community members have stepped up to help ease the process

of playing without coach Bisesi during his absences. “Everybody is kind of pitching in and helping and I think the girls are okay with all that,” Bisesi said. Bisesi has coached the Eagles individually or as a team to qualify for the NCAA postseason for 11 consecutive years. In August 2005, he was ranked seventh among Indiana golf instructors by Golf Digest.
