Still singing Choir to celebrate 40th anniversary for annual spring concert By Abigail Gipson apgipson@indiana.edu | @apgipson

Members of the African American Choral Ensemble lift their hands above their heads to begin warming up, shaking them out while counting in unison. They shake out their feet, still counting, then begin to sing. Some keep time against their sides and some filter in late, already singing as they walk to their spots. Their sound fills the room. “Stay focused, stay positive,” said Tiffany Williams, an associate instructor for the class. “Let’s look forward to making some great music.” She was met with applause, nods and amens. The AACE’s spring concert Saturday night will celebrate the choir’s 40th

anniversary with a variety of repertoire from spirituals to popular culture songs, such as “I’ll be There” by the Jackson 5. The concert will also feature AACE alumni for two of the songs. All past directors and several alumni of the ensemble will be on campus for the event, AACE director Raymond Wise said. Yukari Shinagawa has been a member of AACE for seven years, and Saturday will be her last performance with the ensemble. “AACE gave me a space where I can forget about everything and focus on what I love to do,” Shinagawa said. She will have one final performance with the ensemble before handing it over to the next generation, she said. “I hope I will enjoy every moment on the stage,” she said. “I hope I won’t cry.”

Later this spring, the ensemble will travel to Germany, Wise said. It will be the AACE’s first time performing abroad. The AACE will perform songs in different languages, including German, in this weekend’s performance, Wise said. “Since the music has been globalized, we’re preparing to become an international group, a group that has a message,” he said. Gospel has been globalized for a long time, Wise said, and in the last decade its international popularity has increased. However, AACE performs more than just gospel, with its repertoire including spirituals, blues, jazz — any music written for, by or about African Americans. “The diversity that we share, we’re not able to only go and share the muSEE CHOIR, PAGE 6

EVANSVILLE, Ind. — Donald Trump promised a big announcement Thursday in Evansville, Indiana, but he delivered a repetition of Wednesday’s show: a rally about winning, featuring former IU basketball coach Bobby Knight. Knight and Trump recycled their talking points. Knight compared Trump to President Harry Truman and thanked Indiana for his years of basketball coaching. He placed emphasis on Trump’s knowing what it takes to win. And win he has. Trump gave a breakdown of the 21 states’ primaries he has won. “If we win in Indiana, it’s over,” Trump said. Trump and Knight addressed the Hoosier crowd with fervor. “We need to start winning again,” Trump said. “Bobby knows about winning.” Fellow Republican candidate Ted Cruz announced in Indianapolis on Wednesday that he would run for president with Carly Fiorina as his running mate. Ohio Gov. John Kasich suspended his Indiana campaign to give Cruz a chance at stopping Trump from reaching the delegate count. Trump said the Fiorina choice w as futile because Fiorina’s only successful political experience was at the “children’s debate” that occured before she debated Trump. “She’s a nice woman,” Trump said. “But she’s not going to help him.” Trump called the Kasich-Cruz pact “pathetic” and an example of the “evil” in the political world. “Lyin’ Ted is gonna get clobbered,” he said.

Hoosiers hope to capitalize on Northwestern pitching By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali

It will be a tale of two teams on the pitching mound this weekend when IU (23-16, 8-4) welcomes last-place Northwestern (10-30, 2-13) for a three-game conference series. The struggling Wildcats enter the series as losers of their last six consecutive conference games, with just one win in the last 13. A sweep for the Hoosiers would be beneficial because IU is only two games back from first-place Minnesota. Due to inclement weather in the forecast for Saturday, a doubleheader has been scheduled for Friday starting at 3 p.m., with the series finale Sunday. IU Coach Chris Lemonis said he hopes to get the offense going

again after leaving nine runners on base last game against Notre Dame. “We’re not getting an average at-bat. We’re getting a really bad at-bat in those situations,” Lemonis said after the Notre Dame game. “Getting a better pitch and our swings going a little bit, we’ve got good hitters they just didn’t have a good night.” After getting rained out Wednesday, IU will return home for the first time since April 17, when they fell to Iowa in extra innings. That snapped a six-game home win-streak for the Hoosiers, but they still remain eight games above .500 in Bloomington this season. Returning home after playing five consecutive games away will be a major advantage for the club. Northwestern’s main strug-

As a group, the Wildcats own a 6.22 ERA on the year and are even worse in conference games with a 6.90 ERA. The Hoosiers, on the other hand, own the second-best ERA in the league, have allowed 130 less runs than Northwestern in the season and have racked up about 80 more strikeouts. While these two teams are fairly comparable at the plate, the Hoosiers are still outgaining the Wildcats by more than 20 runs scored while also relying on the long ball more often.

The Hoosiers are introduced before their game against Notre Dame at Victory Field in Indianapolis. IU lost 5-0.

Although the IU lineup hasn’t produced eye-popping numbers, the pitching staff has been the backbone of this club. Unlike Northwestern’s pitching staff, IU’s pitchers have kept the Hoosiers in position to compete with the rest of the conference.

“This is Indiana, and we’re a pitching school,” junior relief pitcher Thomas Belcher said. “Ever since the Omaha year, we’ve had guys step up and pitch well every SEE BASEBALL, PAGE 6

‘Great 8’ graduate with Ph.D.s from School of Education By Sarah Gardner gardnese@indiana.edu | @sarahhhgardner

They call themselves the Great Eight. They are a group of black women in the School of Education all earning Ph.D.s this spring. After coming across each other at different points in their doctoral education, they decided to carve a community out for themselves. Juhanna Rogers, one of the eight, said she didn’t think she would have made

it through the program without the rest of them. It started with sharing classes and cars. Rogers, Jasmine Haywood and Nadrea Njoku realized they would all need to commute from Indianapolis to Bloomington for classes one semester, so they decided to carpool every day. But while they originally drove together for convenience, they soon found themselves giving each other pep talks for the day ahead, discussing how to balance their

relationships with going to school and talking about what it felt like to be a minority group at a place like IU. “There usually are not this many Ph.D. students graduating from a school at one time, period,” said associate professor Robin Hughes, who has taught all eight of the graduating women. “So it is incredibly significant to have eight black women graduating at once. It’s just not the norm.” Haywood said she was driven to pursue a Ph.D. in higher educa-

tion and student affairs when she realized she couldn’t find any black women in the field, particularly in Bloomington. “When that happens, there’s this sort of subliminal message that gets into your brain,” Haywood said. “And those messages make you wonder if it’s even possible for you to get a terminal degree when no one like you has before.” Six of the eight — Haywood, Rogers, Njoku, Demetrees Hutchins, Shannon McCullough and Johari

Shuck — will earn doctoral degrees in higher education and student affairs. The other two women, Tiffany Kyser and Jada Phelps-Moultrie, will earn doctoral degrees in urban education studies. None of their experiences have been the same, especially because they are in different doctoral programs and began them at different times, Hughes said. But they all had enough in common to come SEE GREAT EIGHT, PAGE 6

IU administrator to help in search for NAFSA CEO From IDS reports

IU’s Associate Vice President for International Services Christopher J. Viers will manage a search for the next CEO of the world’s biggest organization of international educators, the NAFSA: Association of International Educators. At IU, Viers leads the Universitywide Office of Christopher International Viers Services, which handles international recruitment and admission, international student and scholar advising, programming and support services. It is also the team responsible for the ongoing development and support of IU’s immigration case management and compliance software solution, Sunapsis. “Chris Viers has transformed our services to international students and scholars,” said David Zaret, IU vice president for international affairs. “He has overseen the development of tools that now support one in four international students in the U.S.” Zaret said Viers’ leadership has had a positive influence on the quality of students’ educations and qualifications. “He has refashioned international admissions at IU, and we are seeing more diversity and more highly qualified students than ever before,” Zaret added. “His knowledge of international issues and his efficient management skills make him the ideal candidate to guide the selection of one of the most important international administrators in the U.S.” NAFSA: Association of International Educators has more than 10,000 members

at 3,500 institutions in more than 150 countries worldwide. It promotes collaborative, intercultural learning and leadership. IU has been involved with NAFSA since its founding in 1948, and Leo Dowling, IU’s first director of international services, served as one of its founding presidents. “It has been an honor to build on Leo’s legacy in international services at IU the past 14 years and a privilege to be affiliated throughout my career in international education administration with NAFSA,” Viers said in an IU press release. “I was humbled to be asked by the board of directors to chair the search for the association’s executive director, and I look forward to working with my colleagues in identifying an exceptional 21st-century leader.” Viers has been an active member of NAFSA since 1989. He has had several state, regional and national leadership positions, including vice president for education and professional development from 2007 to 2009. He also served as board member from 2006 to 2011 and as president and chair of the board of directors in 2010. Fanta Aw, chair of NAFSA’s board of directors and assistant vice president for campus life at American University, said Viers was the best choice given his contributions to the field and NAFSA. “Chris has a strong track record of strategic leadership, knows the organization and its members well, and is deeply respected in the field and known with great admiration by countless members,” Aw said in the release. “His ability to listen and engage others will make a world of difference as we prepare for the future.

Associate professor named Tech Educator of the Year From IDS reports

Kylie Peppler, an associate professor of learning sciences in the IU School of Education, received the Tech Educator of the Year award April 23 at TechPoint’s 17th annual Mira Awards. The Tech Educator of the Year award is given to an individual who works Kylie Peppler to ensure a pipeline of future talent in the tech community, according to the TechPoint website. The Mira Awards are given every year to celebrate success stories in Indiana’s technology growth, according to a press release for the IU Center of Excellence for Women in Technology. Peppler was nominated for the award by CEWiT’s Faculty Leadership Team, to which she has belonged for three years, according to a CEWiT press release. Peppler is champion of the CEWiT Circles Program and is “passionate about encouraging girls and women to work and study in STEMrelated fields,” according to the release. Those who nominated Peppler described her as

“someone who works to understand the connection between arts and technology in attempt to deepen a child’s learning experience,” according to the release. Her research has centered on the intersection of new technology, media arts and informal arts and has led to Peppler’s authorship of three books in print. She has also co-authored four books in press. Additional research in e-textiles led Peppler to create Lilyponod, an online community connecting designers and creators. Peppler has received grants from the National Science Foundation and John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. “Through her advocacy in the Maker Movement, she has created wearable computers and electronically enhanced puppets to educate children in grades K-3 about biological systems through stimulation,” according to the CEWiT’s release. Ninety-eight companies, organizations and individuals were nominated for Mira Awards, according to the release. There were a total of 17 awards presented, as well as seven runners-up named for these awards. Carley Lanich

Greeks respond to assault By Austin Faulds afaulds@indiana.edu | @a_faulds9615

Over Little 500 weekend, a total of four rapes were reported in Bloomington. One of these involved a student being held down by two men while a third raped her in the street, according to an IU Police Department press release. In the six months leading up to this year’s Little 500 weekend, IUPD received reports of 88 complaints of harassment or intimidation, 54 reports of assaults, seven complaints of suspicious people or vehicles, four forcible fondlings and five rapes, according to a recent article from the Indiana Daily Student. Upon hearing this news, Men Against Rape and Sexual Assault co-director Alec Raich said he felt a mix of fear, sadness and anger. He said he was concerned about the safety of his friends on campus. “It makes me want to work harder to fight against stuff like this on campus,”

Raich said. MARS is a student-led organization mostly made up of members of the Interfraternity Council, with the goal of raising awareness of and bettering education on sexual violence on campus. For the past two semesters, MARS has put on the BannerUp campaign. Members made large banners with messages written on them to promote sexual assault prevention. Despite the efforts of MARS, Raich said he believes more could be done to fight against sexual violence. “It’s a scary reminder that there’s still a lot of work to be done on campus,” Raich said. In order to help prevent more attacks in the future, Raich said he encourages women not to walk alone at night, especially when intoxicated. However, Safe Sisters codirector Jordan Smith said she believes there has only been an increase in reports, not sexual assaults. “My heart goes out to those victims,” Smith said.

“However, I think it’s a great step in the right direction that they are comfortable with sharing that information.” Like MARS, Safe Sisters is also an organization that spreads awareness of sexual assault and rape on campus. Smith said each Panhellenic Association chapter has their own Safe Sisters representative. Every two to four weeks Safe Sisters has meetings where they discuss topics like sexual violence, consent and victim blaming. They also have guest speakers and collaborative meetings with MARS. “No one in greek life supports rape and sexual assault,” Raich said. One reason why Raich said he joined MARS was because he is against the stereotype of greek brothers being related to sexual violence. “It’s a serious problem on campus, and I really want to help fight against it,” Raich said. Instead of supporting greek stereotypes, Raich said

“It’s a scary reminder that there’s still a lot of work to be done on campus,” Alec Raich, Men Against Rape and Sexual Assault co-director

he encourages others to discuss their concerns about sexual violence with members of the greek community. “I encourage to come start a conversation with us, not a conversation against us,” Raich said. Not avoiding conversations about sexual violence is the proper way to fight against its issues, Raich said. “I think that’s a solution that can help not only IU, but the greater population,” Raich said. Member of MARS are encouraged to be the go-to brother if a brother or friend are attacked, Raich said. However, Raich said he believes it is difficult for men to come forward because of SEE MARS, PAGE 3

IU psychologists study length of child attention span From IDS reports

A new study by IU psychologists has found that distracted caregivers may raise children with shorter attention spans. The psychologists’ research, published online in the journal Current Biology, is the first to show connections between how long a caregiver focuses their eyes on an object and how long an infant focuses on that same object, according to an IU press release. Chen Yu, who led the study supported by the National Institutes of Health, is a professor in the College of Arts and Sciences’ Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences. He said in the release children’s ability to sustain attention is known to be a strong indicator for success in language acquisition, problem solving and other developmental milestones. “Caregivers who seem distracted or whose eyes wander a lot while children play appear to negatively impact infants’ burgeoning attention spans during a key stage of development,” Yu said in the release.

Linda Smith, a distinguished professor and Chancellor’s Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences, co-authored the paper. “Historically, psychologists regarded attention as a property of individual development,” Smith said. “Our study is one of the first to consider attention as impacted by social interaction. It really appears to be an activity performed by two social partners since our study shows one individual’s attention significantly influence another’s.” In the study, caregivers and infants both wore headmounted cameras to provide a first-person point of view of parents and children playing in an environment created to resemble a home or day care play session. Unlike similar studies, this technology allowed caregivers and children to play with physical toys, rather than objects manipulated on screen, according to the release. Yu said in the release parents either allowed infants to direct the course of play or attempted to forcefully guide the infants’ interest in particular toys. The caregivers

were given no instructions prior to play so researchers could gain an unfiltered understanding of the caregivers’ and infants’ interactions. “A lot of the parents were really trying too hard,” Yu said in the release. “They were trying to show off their parenting skills, holding out toys for their kids and naming the object. But when you watch the camera footage, you can actually see the children’s eyes wandering to the ceilings or over their parents’ shoulders — they’re not

paying attention at all.” The study found caregivers who “let the child lead” were the most successful at keeping the infant’s attention, according to the release. These caregivers named toys and encouraged the infant to play with the objects after the child expressed interest in the toy. “The responsive parents were sensitive to their children’s interests and the SEE CAREGIVING, PAGE 3

supported their attention,” Yu said in the release. “We found they didn’t even really need to try to redirect where the children were looking.” When children and caregivers paid attention to the same object for more than 3.6 seconds, the child’s attention stayed with that object for 2.3 seconds longer on average even when a caregiver’s attention changed, according to the release. This time adds up to be nearly four times more than that of infants whose caregiver’s attention changed quickly. Yu said these times, although initially appearing

small, are magnified when considered over an entire play session or throughout months of daily interaction during a critical development stage. Other studies in children ages 1 through those in grade school have found conclusions that longer attention spans at an early age can predict future achievement, according to the release. Sam Wass, a research scientist at the University of Cambridge whose commentary has been published in Current Biology, said Yu and Smith’s work has been hugely influential. “Showing that what a parent pays attention to minute by minute and second by

second actually influences what a child is paying attention to may seem intuitive, but social influences on attention are potentially very important and ignore by most scientists,” Wass said in his release. The shortest attention spans in the study were found in a third group where caregivers exhibited very low engagement while playing with the children, typically sitting back, diverting attention and not playing along. “When you’ve got a someone who isn’t responsive to a child’s behavior, it could be a real red flag for future problems,” Yu said in the release.

the gender roles surrounding men that expect them to be masculine. There is also the stereotype that men are not supposed to be raped. People should believe victims when they come out that they have been assaulted, Smith said. She said she can’t understand why anyone would lie about being assaulted for attention. “The key point to take home is to believe someone when they said they were assaulted,” Smith said. When facing issues such as sexual violence, Smith said she encourages people to seek organizations like

Melloan said she believes students across campus should unify and fight the issue of sexual violence together. “We should look out for one another and stand up against this violence as a community,” Melloan said. Safe Sisters is made up of about 250 members, Smith said. She said this shows a step in the right direction, as well as that students are interested in these issues. “Just the fact that we have that many shows that Panhellenic women are taking a stand against victim blaming, taking a stand against sexual assault and taking a stand against violence,” Smith said.

Noah Ainslie plays with his service dog, Appa, at his home in Indianapolis. Appa helps with Ainslie’s autism. Service dogs have become a growing trend in the United States for people with autism.

More than just a pet The Ainslie family tried several methods of therapy to subdue their 10-year-old son’s outbursts triggered by his high-functioning autism, but what they really needed was a little puppy love. By Annie Garau agarau@indiana.edu | @agarau6

INDIANAPOLIS —

O

ct. 16, 18 weeks before Appa comes home The boys are only pretend fighting. Most parents would probably ignore the spin kicks through the air, the spit-filled mock sword sounds. But Shawna Ainslie watches carefully, keeping an especially close eye on Noah, her oldest child with dark eyes and shaggy brown hair. Soon, her 7-year-old son, Gabriel, makes accidental contact. Not enough to harm his 10-year-old big brother, but enough. Shawna looks on as Noah’s body goes rigid, arms sticking firmly to his sides. Tilting his head forward, he looks up through heavy bangs at a wide-eyed Gabriel. For the smallest moment, everyone is silent and still. And then he lunges. Shawna catches Noah mid-step as Gabriel automatically reaches for his 3-year-old sister’s pudgy hand and leads her into another room and shuts the door behind them. Shawna’s tired eyes stare out the window while the 4-foot-9 boy continues to strain against her arms. As a child with high-functioning autism, Noah has little control over the anger pouring out. Years of aggressive tantrums lasting three hours or more have taught the mother that she can’t do much but wait. It’s been months, even years, of waiting for something that could make the anxiety-triggered outbursts manageable. They’ve tried music therapy, play therapy, speech therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and still Noah’s anxiety manifests in kicks and screams. As time has worn on, Shawna’s watched her family inch closer to its tipping point. It seems they may only have one last thing to try, and in a few months it will arrive. A small, four-legged puff ball to tug Noah, and his family, away from the edge. * * * Autism is a brain development disorder that affects one in every 68 children in America, a tenfold increase from 40 years ago, according to Autism Speaks. On the higher end of the spectrum, people with autism might have trouble making eye contact, straying from their routine or interpreting social cues. They are often overly sensitive to their environment, which can result in severe anxiety and socially

inappropriate reactions. The use of service dogs to assist people with autism is a growing trend, according to the National Service Animal Registry. Though the Assistance Dogs for Autism group reports the pets have been found to help with social interaction, redirection of repetitive behaviors, independence and calming anxiety, training these animals specifically for people with autism only began 16 years ago. It’s a new form of therapy, but after months of Shawna’s in-depth research, she thinks it might be just what Noah needs. * * * In any home, there is a line between good touches and bad touches. In the Ainslie family that line is more distinct and important. Gabriel accidentally hitting: bad touch. Noah hoisting his sister on to his

and he demurely begins to follow wherever the boy leads. Noah affectionately names him Appa. At 5 months old, the dog doesn’t quite resemble his namesake, a giant flying bison from the cartoon “Avatar: The Last Airbender.” The onscreen Appa is fiercely protective. He accompanies the young boy who he’s bonded to at all times, makes him laugh and scares away anyone who threatens his safety. He said he imagines this Appa will shield him from the crushing pressure of people, sounds and societal expectations. More than that, though, Noah expects this very small, very real Appa to help protect him from himself, he said. * * * Nov. 8, 14 weeks before Appa comes home There are lots of things that are frightening or overwhelming to

give him food, water or a hug. “It’s just so hard pretending to be normal,” he said to her. Often what frightens Noah most is what’s happening in his own head. After his episodes he’ll sometimes apologize profusely. Scared of his actions, he’s felt powerless against the persistent, angry, selfdeprecating thoughts. His parents have now temporarily pulled Noah out of school. He feels more comfortable in his brightly colored living room. Here, the air smells of oranges, cinnamon and clove. The floor is littered with empty birthday bags and jackets, and jelly beans sometimes spill from the couch. In his pajamas or his underwear, Noah is able to sit quietly and comfortably, but still the bad thoughts darken his mood. He fights them off in whatever way he knows how. He locks his family out of the house, he distances himself from his siblings, he dances to thumping dubstep to release tension, he clenches his fists, furrows his brow and inhales sharply. Still the negativity overpowers him. “I wish I would die,” he tells his mom. “People should hurt me.” Noah’s a funny kid and appreciates wit, Shawna says, but now it

“It will probably help me feel better. Like right now, if the dog were here, I’d just play with it or snuggle it and I’d have something to do that would genuinely make me happy.” Noah Ainslie, service dog companion back, dancing to a Katy Perry song: good touch. Noah pulling at his own hair: bad touch. The children snuggling into their mother’s lap: good touch. Noah pulling away from his mother, pulling away from her grasp as hard as he can: bad touch. Shawna holding him close, hoping the pressure will ease the pain: good touch. It’s these points of connection that can either comfort or harm. They’re the reason the family needs to be together and also the reason they’re being torn apart. * * * Oct. 17, 18 weeks before Appa comes home Meeting the Ainslies for the first time, the puppy doesn’t look like much. His curly white fur is too thin to keep him from trembling. He walks goofily on oversized paws and rarely makes a peep. His long snout sniffs curiously at the boy holding him,

someone with autism. The man in the park who yelled at Noah for saying bad words, causing Noah to scramble up a slide and defend himself with a stick until Shawna could coax him down. The security guards who found Noah in the toy aisle at Target after he had wandered away from his mother. Unexpectedly approached by the strangers, Noah sat and screamed until Shawna followed the noise and comforted him. He wouldn’t step foot in a Target for years afterwards. The teacher who reprimanded a student in a way Noah couldn’t perceive as fair. He doesn’t remember running around the playground wildly, yelling threats and frightening the other children, he does remember being suspended for what Gabriel called “like the 500th time.” The birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese’s, where a deluge of purple lights, loud music, people and heavy pizza smells didn’t stop Noah from having a good time with friends.

Both of them think Appa can change that. “It will probably help me feel better,” Noah said of his dog’s arrival. “Like right now, if the dog were here, I’d just play with it or snuggle it and I’d have something to do that would genuinely make me happy.” The parents are reluctant to consider the more drastic options, the last resorts that would become necessary if they felt they could no longer keep their other children or Noah safe. They hope with Appa’s arrival, those unspoken possibilities will become irrelevant. * * * Feb. 28, the day Appa comes home Shawna, a writer, begins a new blog post. “We couldn’t be more excited to connect with our furry companion, especially as Noah has a particularly dour outlook of late,” she types. “He needs an intervention.” She tells her readers that they are still in need of donations to pay for

the expensive service dog training. They haven’t even raised half of the money they need. She assures them that it is a good and important cause. “Without your support, this couldn’t be a reality,” the post ends. “Now excuse me while I do a Snoopy dance.” * * * March, Appa’s home Inside the magic marker-covered walls of their daughter River’s bedroom, Shawna and her husband Nathan are playing a card game. Dressed in his pajamas, Gabriel comes in. Then Noah joins too. The cards are strewn between the five family members when Appa’s head pokes around the corner. Tail wagging, the dog prances through the group, scatters the cards, turns around and takes a seat in the open spot. “And it was just the six of us sitting in this circle,” Shawna says, “And it was perfect.” Where Noah goes, Appa shadows him. He guards the door as Noah showers. He dances along as Noah shimmies to dubstep, and when Noah sits, he tucks his body into the space between Noah’s back and the couch. He follows quietly as Noah and Shawna go to Target. Noah remains uncharacteristically calm, so the group makes its way to a post office. Noah is still feeling fine as they go on a third errand and a fourth. “A cumulative relaxation effect,” is how Noah describes what Appa brings him. With Appa in his bed or outside his bedroom door, Noah sleeps longer. He feels safe enough to wear headphones, something he’s never done before. He feels comfortable enough to put on real clothes, and even dons socks for what Shawna estimates to be the first time in about a year. Noah is not the only one touched by the dog’s presence. Appa wakes Shawna in the middle of the night when she’s having a bad dream. He helps Noah stay patient enough to play for long stretches with his sister, to teach her exactly how to work a particular video game. The house is even messier now, due to a lack of Shawna’s stress cleaning. Even with Appa, Noah can still be triggered by the smallest of things. Standing in the living room, his body is vibrating in an all-too-familiar way. Leaning forward, he frowns and cries and Shawna braces for a screaming meltdown. Squaring up, the son and mother ready themselves for an onslaught of emotion sure to make both of them miserable. But this time is different. “Touch, Appa,” Shawna commands wishfully. Slicing through the tension, a fluffy white paw bats the boy’s leg. And then she can hardly believe it. Her son starts laughing.

Lewis said he hoped Trump would specifically address how he would improve Evansville employment and veteran benefits. Some of his friends’ parents lost their jobs during Whirlpool’s 2009 move from Evansville to Mexico, he said. Lewis and his friends also wanted to hear about the wall. Trump didn’t get too into the specifics of jobs, but he did deliver on immigration. “We will build a wall, believe me,” he said. “If we don’t have borders, we’re not a country.” Cruz discussed his vision for bringing jobs back to Indiana on Wednesday.

She said the example of how their community was pursuing the same goal was encouraging. “I wish I could have had some of the community experiences with them I missed out on, but even seeing someone who looks like you working for the same career helps

Presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks at a rally in Indianapolis on Wednesday. Trump was joined by former IU basketball coach Bobby Knight at the event.

Hoosiers after moving to Mexico, has become a political focal point this week. Former President Bill Clinton used Carrier’s $2.9 million income to demonstrate his wife, Hillary’s, plan to incentivize an even distribution of profits. Trump said in his America, companies such as Carrier would have to pay a 35-percent import tax if they want their product in the so much,” Phelps-Moultrie said. “It was inspirational to me when I was working through the program.” Phelps-Moultrie said she decided to pursue a Ph.D. after spending 13 years teaching in three different states and watching black students get marginalized over and over. She said she knew she had to leave and return to her education so she could learn how to help them. After her graduation, Phelps-Moultrie will take a position as an assistant professor at Portland State University, where she said she wants to create a supportive community example for her students like she had at IU. Hughes said PhelpsMoultrie’s attitude of trying to learn how to help other students is something shared by all eight women. “They aren’t just doing this so they can be called ‘Doctor’ at the end of it,” Hughes said. “They aren’t going to sit around in the ivory tower and be cute. They know they have work to do in mar-

United States. In general, the attacks on the competition were swift, vicious and met with loud cheering. Trump threw around his signature nicknames, “Lyin’ Ted” and “Crooked Hillary Clinton.” He said Kasich needs to stop “stuffing his face” and learn to eat with his mouth closed. He addressed the media as “big, big, big liars.” Knight seemed confi-

dent Trump would get the nomination, even though he doesn’t care about the party association. “I don’t give a damn about the Republican Party,” Knight said. “I don’t give a damn about the Democrats either.” Both Trump and Knight harped on Trump’s ability to win if elected president. “I like people who are in charge,” Knight said. “This man is in charge.”

sic, but share it in a way that shows its accessibility to the world,” Wise said. The trip to Germany will also be junior Kelaiah Awoyemi’s first time travelling abroad. This is her third year in the ensemble. Awoyemi said she grew up singing gospel in her Baptist church choir. She joined the Indianapolis Children’s Choir in the fourth grade, where she sang classical and European songs. She said singing in the AACE has been a change in perspective for her. For many years, gospel has been left out of the academy, Wise said. In the last 15 years, he has been involved with developing gospel choirs and curriculum in different universities. He said he hopes to further the gospel program at IU with AACE, the youngest ensemble in the African American Arts Institute. It’s important to have gospel music available to study formally, he said. “Within the AfricanAmerican community, where this music is generally based, those students who demonstrate great gifts and talent, there’s really nowhere that they go to study this music,” Wise said. Awoyemi said during their time in Germany, AACE will be performing with German ensembles that know the same mu-

for higher education. “We’re part of a larger narrative of African-Americans placing a high value on our education, even if we’ve been somehow displaced or have poor access to resources,” Phelps-Moultrie said. “We have a lot of tenacity, and I think it shows the AfricanAmerican community is a vital aspect of the university’s narrative as well, and that’s a story that should be highlighted.”

single year. You always think it’s going to be tough losing guys, but the next guy steps up and he’s just as good.” IU has been fortunate to have the type of production they’ve gotten from every arm this season. Six Hoosiers have tossed at least 25 innings this season and own better ERAs than Northwestern’s top pitcher Danny Katz, who owns a 3.08 ERA. With Katz doing all of his work out of the bullpen, the Wildcats have resorted to 10 different players to start games for them. Struggling

sic and the same artists as they do. “No matter what religion or gender you are, no matter what language you speak, music just brings people together,” she said. Shinagawa is a doctoral student in the Department of African American and African Diaspora Studies. With her degree, she said she hopes to teach gospel music in Japan to bridge the divide between her culture and gospel music. She was first introduced to gospel through the movie “Sister Act” when she lived in Japan, where it was very popular, she said. It played on TV every year, and she sang songs from the movie in her high school choir. Though Shinagawa isn’t Christian, she said the messages of the music she sings in AACE and the experiences she has while performing transcend religion. “One of the beautiful things about gospel music, and one of the things that allows Japanese people who are not Christian to sing it, is that you feel better singing,” she said. “You feel community. You feel that you belong somewhere.” The messages in AACE’s music hit the soul, Wise said. They speak to a universal human condition. “For many people all over the world who share that same struggle, this same message brings hope to them,” he said. to find stability in their rotation, the three Wildcats with the most starts have a combined 5.23 ERA. The low-quality arms for Northwestern give IU reason to break out offensively this weekend and sweep the Wildcats to boost its postseason résumé as much as possible. “I’m a little biased,” junior outfielder Craig Dedelow said. “I think we have a good résumé as of right now. Obviously we’re going to have to keep building on it, but if we keep taking care of business like we’re supposed to we’ll be good at the end of the year.”

The Potenza’s home on the north side of Indianapolis was broken into by six men on October 29, 2013. Today, the family is still living in the house.

Finding normal Three years ago, the Potenza family survived a brutal home invasion. It took them five months to move back home. Today, they’re living lives without bitterness. They’re moving on. By Kathrine Schulze schulzek@indiana.edu | @kas_schulze

D

riving to work one morning, Eileen’s thoughts turned to the car during the invasion. She felt herself start to panic. But then, she started thinking about what she had to do that day, what she had going on in class — really anything to get her mind off it — and she talked herself down from the terror. Eileen Potenza, 58, has most of the pieces, but almost three years later, the timeline is still jumbled. She remembers waking up to men with guns surrounding her and her husband’s bed. She remembers being shot, twice, and being shoved into her own car, one of the men violating her in the backseat as she was driven to the ATM. Afterward, she tried to reason with him to keep her family alive. Some of the things the men did seemed surreal. She thinks one man got a bowl of cereal from the kitchen and ate it. Another sat down to her family’s piano, the one she plays when no one is around, and pressed on the keys while his accomplices yelled at him to stop. “Why would you decide, in the middle of all that, to play the piano?” she asked. “But he did.” * * *

The Potenzas’ home was every family’s purgatory one October morning. After the house was quiet again, Eileen remembers thinking tomorrow would be just a normal day. But when you’ve been attacked in your own home, how can tomorrow be normal? Months after the attack, Eileen, her husband Carl, 61, and oldest daughter Allison, 27, talked at the trial for four out of six of the men accused of invading their home. It was the first time Eileen had ever really seen her attackers’ faces, she said. At the trial, with her friends and family in the crowd, she struggled, knowing it would be hard for them to hear the graphic details. “But you just answer the questions,” she said. “You just have to be honest and get through it.” Four of the six men in the home invasion were charged and con-

victed on several different counts, including rape, carjacking and robbery. They are serving sentences of 248 years for the Potenza case. For a reduced sentence, a fifth man turned state witness against the four men who stood trial together. The sixth man has not been tried yet. Allison spoke at the sentencing hearing of Trae Spells, the state’s witness. He was the only one that seemed to show remorse, and she was grateful to him for his part in getting the men convicted. Eileen was floored by the amount of media coverage their attack and subsequent trial attracted. The Indianapolis Star ran news articles on the trial; WTHR did a feature on them. They turned down offers from tabloids and shows that wanted to re-enact the crime for television. Eileen isn’t sure why they media were so interested. It’s because of the neighborhood they live in — safe and quiet on the north side of town. “People don’t expect it to be happening here,” she said. * * * October 29, 2013, was a Tuesday. The day before, Eileen and Allison decided to take a trip to the mall to window shop. They came home when the stores closed and hung up their purses by the door. Eileen was tired, but she didn’t have to work the next day, so she didn’t go straight to bed. Instead she thinks she watched some TV before turning in. Before sunrise, six men walked through the open garage door to the Potenza family home where Eileen, Carl and Allison were asleep inside. Their youngest daughter, Rachel, was away at college. The men stood over Eileen and Carl’s bed, yelling for money. They wanted cash, phones, car keys and jewelry — anything they could get their hands on. And they wanted their orders to be followed. “Don’t look up or we will kill you!” “Nobody gets hurt, cooperate!” From down the hall, Allison woke from the noise. She waited, listening, for a few minutes before grabbing her purse and confronting the men. But what the Potenzas had was not enough.

For the next several hours, they would be held hostage in their own home. Carl remained in bed, bound by a neurological condition that makes it difficult for him to walk. Eileen thought of the office phone down the hall and tried to break free. She was shot in the right thigh before she reached the office door. Later, Eileen would be shot for a second time trying to run to the neighbors for help. She was then pushed in the back seat of her white Ford Escape with one of her attackers, another taking the wheel. Cash was still their goal, and because there was little in the house, one of the men took Eileen and Allison separately to a Regions bank ATM to withdraw the maximum amount from their bank cards: $800. While one man drove, Eileen was sexually assaulted in the back seat. At home, multiple men sexually assaulted Allison. During the initial trip to the ATM, Eileen realized she didn’t have her bankcard, but Allison’s. On the second trip with a different card, Eileen was taken to the driver’s side of the car by Adrian Anthony and made to drive. Behind the wheel, Eileen talked to Anthony, and he talked back. He told her about his childhood; how he grew up in the Nora Pines area, loved football and went to North Central High School. He told her his father was shot and how his mother left. Eileen said no one should have to grow up alone, and she offered to help. She was a teacher. She told him she could help him get his life back on track. “After all I done to you, you want to help me?” he asked. When they were stopped, maybe at a light Eileen said, Anthony told her to look at him. Yes, she said. He could go to college. “We’re not gonna kill you, if you do what we say.” “Are you gonna change?” she said. “Yes.” She said that while she was talking to him she realized that if she could get him on her side a little bit, the situation would begin to diffuse. In the car, he promised her they wouldn’t hurt her family any worse.

Top Eileen Potenza, 58, discusses the attack in her home. She often wrings her hand when discussing the more intense moments of the night. She and her family have no bitterness, she said. Bottom Allison Emhardt, 27, lives with her husband not far from her parents’ home.

The invasion, at least, was over. * * * In the months after the home invasion, the Potenzas lived at Eileen’s mother’s home. Eileen, Carl, Allison and Rachel, 24, spent five months in the two-bedroom house just down the street from their own. Carl and Eileen slept in the spare room. Allison and Rachel sometimes shared their

grandmother’s pullout couch, and sometimes they stayed at a hotel in Carmel, Indiana. While they were at Eileen’s mother’s house, they wondered if they would ever go home again. “I didn’t want to not come here,” Eileen said. “We had raised our kids here and we loved our house. But I thought, if my daughter Alli couldn’t feel like she could come back then we would just sell it.” While they decided, they began to heal. For Allison and Eileen, SEE POTENZA, PAGE 11

KARL’S KORNER

The troubling paradox of Trumpian policy

ILLUSTRATION BY EMILY TATUM | IDS

EDITORIAL BOARD

What to do this summer WE SAY: Enjoy our thoughts in the sunshine Having an internship for the summer is only half the battle. Being able to claim it on your résumé doesn’t mean you’ve actually gained all of the education you can. Make sure you keep your eyes open, ask questions and make connections with your supervisors. They are there to help you gain all you can from the internship! If you did not secure an internship for the summer, it does not mean your career development is over. Whether you’re staying in Bloomington or going back to your hometown, you can find other avenues to build your résumé. Getting a part-time job may not seem so great, but keeping an open mind and attentively completing your shifts could teach you more

than you may think. Working in retail could be soulsucking, but on your résumé it could be an experience in teamwork, persuasion and communication. Every town has volunteer opportunities as well. Animal shelters, soup kitchens and political campaigns can be great sources for skill-building and can also be emotionally fulfilling. Maggie Eickhoff As you make your summer plans, prepare for the possibility of Trump losing the nomination. With the recent announcement that Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Ohio Gov. John Kasich will team up in order to stop Donald Trump from obtaining the Republican nomination for president, Trump’s

chances continue to dwindle. It was going to be difficult enough, though certainly possible, for Trump to have attained the necessary amount of delegates. But with Cruz and Kasich working together to strategically campaign in states based on which of them will perform the best, they’re likely to steal more delegates from Trump than anyone could have guessed. Stay at least 50 miles away from Cleveland between July 18 and 21. This is the time and place of the convention, which will show if the Cruz and Kasich strategy works. Clevelend will be the heart of the protests and violent riots that will likely result from Trump supporters after he loses. I also wouldn’t recommend road trips through the

Midwest during or after this time, as your liberal bumper stickers are likely to make you a target of Trump supporters. No matter where your summer takes you, remember to be smart, plan ahead and try to use small words when explaining to Trump supporters that a contested convention isn’t unconstitutional. Therin Showalter If you don’t have an internship, you should focus on the other thing you love so much — your GPA. If that GPA is just bumming you out, remember summer sessions provide a lot of opportunity to help. Take a couple of classes, gen-eds and major ones you do not want to take and make a productive use of the summer. Neeta Patwari

QUEER ART VIBES

Femme feels for the Queer community For a long time I have been heavily invested in art about feelings. Often artwork that deals with feelings is done through feminine lenses and aesthetics. This takes different forms in different art media. In music, the confessional song is looked down upon as not structural enough. For example, teen girl music is seen as being mindless rather than empowering women through the conduit of emotional expression and exposure. Vulnerability certainly comes with problems and questions, but it is a weapon as well. Internet art group Cybertwee confronts this issue head-on in its manifesto, “romantic is not weak. feminine is not weak. cute is not weak. we are fragmented and multifaceted bbs,” which is short for “babies.” Art about feelings and the criticism of them is unfairly gendered to the feminine. Woman, femmes, trans folk and nonbinary folk are told that emotional lenses of discourse are not as true or

good as analytics. Basically, society wants us to talk about and refer to old, dead, white men and their aesthetics rather than those of Sailor Moon or “Get Ready With Me” videos. Femme art on the Internet is often associated with Tumblr, Grimes, Internet artist Molly Soda and selfies. These associations can reveal white privilege in this type of discourse. Who gets to overshare? Whose feelings are cute, whose are art and whose are gross? Samantha Irby, a black female writer, has a significantly smaller fan base for her blog “bitches gotta eat” than the overshare poster child and white superstar Lena Dunham does. Often folks outside of white cis heteropatriarchy — yes, that is a word — are often policed for their emotions. Black women are quickly called “angry black women,” as if they don’t have anything to be angry about. Just look at Irby or artist Hannah Black. Trans folk are accused

of being irrational or overly angry, as if their worries are unbiased. This is evident when looking at actress Hari Nef, artist collaboration DarkMatter and Liv Bruce of PWR BTTM. Queer folk are expected to assimilate to marriage, and other forms of sexual expression are considered deviant and over-the-top. People who have experienced sexual assault or rape are expected to either go to therapy and bow out. Or they are expected to keep quiet. A prime example of this is the backlash against former Columbia University student Emma Sulkowicz. Young women and femmes who are often tossed out and not considered adults are expected to sit down and wait before they talk about things. Tavi Gevinsen’s Rookie Mag explores these unheard voices. Feminine aesthetics attempt to reclaim emotion, feelings and sharing as valid ways of dealing with the self and the world around us while still

recognizing privileges other folks have. Traditionally feminine aesthetics like the color pink, selfies and layering in videos are something I have adopted into my own work practice. Understanding feelings, especially through structural lenses of gender, class and anti-capitalism is a big part of my video work. Some videos have large swathes of text evoking sympathy and critiquing the structures that hurt me as a queer non-binary person. While femme has issues around race and class, the feminization of the selfie and of art about feelings has mobilized femme people of different backgrounds to fight against the erasure of feelings. My work and curation attempts to bring to light this rich and often underappreciated area of art. jkrathwo@indiana.edu @lordjoshuabyron

After Tuesday’s home run, Trump’s victory speech relied very little on the actual speech and very heavily on the victory by using the phrase “presumptive nominee” to further inflate his permanently spraytanned skull. The aforementioned speech was full of casual slanders and quixotic, pseudo-political rhetoric. When evaluating his offthe-cuff renderings and the foreign policy speech he gave Wednesday, the two appearances seem entire worlds apart. Notably, in his foreign policy speech Trump strayed away from his established role of the haughty celebrity surrounded by bodyguards, appeasing the hurdling masses beneath him with a barrage of empty words. No, instead of talking down to the sticky fingers and trucker caps, Trump took a far more traditional route. Standing in front of two American flags, Trump poised himself in a room of politically enthused, gray-haired men, and for the first time ever he read the teleprompter verbatim. Many criticized the speech for having the underpinnings of pre-World War II isolationism. Trump zealously spoke on the precipice of American hegemony by adamantly pressing for efforts to bolster the military and re-route future nation-building efforts across the seas. We live in a globalized world. It is time for Trump to realize the debate between isolationism and internationalism is almost extinct. In the New York Times transcript of Trump’s speech, when addressing counterterrorism, Trump explained, “We need a long-term plan to halt the spread and reach of radical Islam.” Although Trump’s stature is of a man who’s delivered many business proposals to reach a deal, it’d be an injustice not to recognize this statement means nothing in terms of foreign policy and strategy.

JESSICA KARL is a junior in English.

It’s not as though Trump is giving Americans empty promises. He’s not giving promises at all. True policy is absent from his pomposity, and the little indication of future plans he does give us is rudimentary and ornamental. Trump lamented, “The world must know that we do not go abroad in search of enemies, that we are always happy when old enemies become friends and when old friends become allies.” Trump fails to recognize the paradoxical nature of this wish. For instance, his plan to back out of the Iran nuclear deal would result in the exact opposite of maintaining allies. We would not only be abandoning our allies, namely the United Kingdom, France and Germany, but also completely erupting the very careful relationship that the United States has built with both the United Nations Security Council and the General Assembly. Foreign policy, however controversial, stands on certain pillars of international law that need to be obeyed. For Trump, who is apparently ready to take on the role of an international negotiator, it seems as though this position is merely part of the job. Our country needs to see the fundamental holes on which Trump’s so-called policy is built. Getting the Republican nomination is not something Trump can simply check off on his bucket list. There is nothing casual about assuming the most powerful role this great nation has to offer. jlkarl@indiana.edu @jkarl26

A GRAIN OF SALT

Darwin’s Finches Charles Darwin is arguably the biggest name in biology. He is credited with writing the first draft of the theory of evolution, which explains the origins of all species on earth. He came up with this theory while watching finches on the Galapagos Islands. He noticed that all the finches were eerily similar but varied greatly in the size and shape of their beaks. The beak of a finch is specialized for its specific diet. Some species of finch have delicate beaks for snagging insects, but others have gargantuan beaks built to crush even the most solid of seeds. He proposed the finches diversified from a common ancestor as they grew specialized to different food sources. This theory became a process evolutionary biologists now call adaptive radiation. Since the time of Darwin, biologists have been grappling with the evolutionary process and the ways by which it proceeds. In 1973, a pair of biologists from Princeton University, Peter and Rosemary Grant, decided the best place to study evolution is the place it all started: the Galapagos Islands. Every year since then, the Grants have visited the Galapagos to observe evolution in action on Darwin’s finches. In 2004 and 2005, a major drought struck the Galapagos, which gave the Grants a unique opportunity to see how populations of finches would respond to a severe lack of food. They found the beaks of some species had changed after the drought in response to more severe competition. The beaks of medium ground finches, which are normally large for cracking seeds, shrunk because another species of bird outcompeted them for the largest seeds. The finches with largerthan-average beaks starved to death, leaving the smaller finches behind to feed on

small seeds which didn’t interest the more competitive birds. Until recently, biologists could only study how the physical appearance of the birds would change over time, but with modern sequencing technologies they now can look directly at the genes driving evolutionary change. In order to look at how finch genes change in response to drought, the Grants and their collaborators sequenced the genomes of 120 individual birds covering all of Darwin’s species. They were particularly interested in examining a gene known as HMGA2. This gene is known to be involved in facial development in many animals and was recently shown to mediate beak shape and size in finches. The researchers reasoned they should see change in the HMGA2 genes alongside changes in the bird’s beaks. They identified variants of the genes associated with larger or smaller-than-average beaks, and in samples collected after the drought they found more birds with the small-beak version of the gene than the large-beak variant. This result isn’t wholly surprising, but it is certainly cool because scientists can now look at the genes on which evolution acts. While it doesn’t provide any earth-shattering answers, it does open the door to some new questions such as how these gene variants arise and contribute to splits between species. Perhaps one day soon the Grants will find out and place more pieces in the evolutionary puzzle Darwin started almost two centuries ago. jaykgold@indiana.edu @jaykeche

Event supports Sanders through comedy By TJ Jaeger tjaeger@indiana.edu | @TJ_Jaeger

Having recently moved to Bloomington, Logan Hendry wanted to get involved with the community and raise money for presidential candidate Bernie Sanders’ campaign. “I’m 20 years old, I’m a comedian, so really that just means I work in a restaurant,” he said. “I don’t really have a lot of money, so I couldn’t give the kind of money I wanted to give to Bernie.” As a result, Hendry organized and will be the host of Friday’s event at the

Void, “Laugh ‘Til It Berns: A Laugh-Filled Fundraiser.” All proceeds will go directly toward the Sanders campaign. The fundraiser features both local and regional comedians, including Chris Cements, Ray Hensley, Trent Mabry, Kurt Messick, Tennah McDonald and Elliott Hilton. Opening and closing the event will be musical guests Wintermute and UpFolk. Hendry booked the fundraiser at the Void through Wintermute’s A.T. Bossenger, who volunteers regularly at the venue and is an avid

Sanders supporter. Hendry was never interested in politics growing up, he said. However, the local comedian said he was immediately interested in the Vermont senator’s platform once Sanders’ campaign started gaining attention. “When, for the first time in your life, you see somebody stand up and say that instead of perpetuating warfare we could put our kids through college, common sense says you’ve got to follow,” he said. Guest speakers include IU Students for Bernie Sanders representative Stanley

Njuguna and Indiana Democratic Convention Delegate Greg Phillips. The majority of organizing and networking for the event occurred on Facebook, Hendry said. Everyone performing at the event is a supporter of Sanders, he said. “Everybody that wanted to do it was very enthusiastic about it, which I think is very indicative of Bernie supporters,” he said. “We have this tenacity where we are just so ready to do anything we can.” Following the fundraiser, Hendry said he is hoping to

set up a recurring comedy open mic night at the Void. There aren’t many local venues for comedians to perform, he said. “It can take upwards of four months to get an open mic slot at the Comedy Attic, and it can take weeks to get on at Bear’s,” he said. “For as many comedians as there are here, they definitely deserve another space.” Representatives from the Sanders campaign will be present to accept donations at tonight’s event. In his experience, Hendry said comedy fundraisers are always successful.

“People like to laugh, people like to give, and generally those things tend to go pretty well together,” he said. Regardless of turnout, Hendry said he is happy to be active in the community during this election season. “No matter what the turnout, no matter how much money we raise, you don’t see the supporters of other candidates doing things like this,” he said. “I think my description of this show is sort of Bernie’s description of politics: Sometimes the message has to mean more than the money.”

“Pali Road” is a new film produced by IU alumnus Danny Chan, which premieres in Bloomington on Friday.

IU alumnus produces film By Abigail Gipson apgipson@indiana.edu | @apgipson

A new film produced by an IU alumnus will premiere in Bloomington on Friday as part of a United States limited release. Danny Chan is one of the producers of “Pali Road,” and it was his idea to bring it to Bloomington. “Pali Road” will be shown in AMC Theater 11, Chan said. Of the 15 cities chosen for the release, Bloomington is the only one in the Midwest. Two hundred tickets were allocated to be given away to IU students through different campus organizations, said sophomore Mike Zhou, a business student who works as an intern for Chan. “I’m loyal to IU because that’s where I went and that’s where I want to help,” Chan said. Chan said he’s considering looking to IU for possible internships for film students. It’s difficult to get started in Hollywood without personal

connections, and he said he wants to extend IU students the chance to break into the film world. “It’s an opportunity to pass it on to other people, if they want it,” he said. “Pali Road” is a collaboration between movie firms in China and movie producers from the U.S., Zhou said. Chan was called in to help communication between the two. Chan said he fell into the film industry. He worked in Asia for more than a decade, and his expertise lies in cross-border mergers and acquisitions, which is why he was approached to help with the film, he said. “Am I in the movie business?” he said. “Absolutely not. I’m in the solution business.” Though the U.S. release is relatively small, Chan said the film could be massive in China. Zhou said “Pali Road” is unusual because the film is entirely in English, even though it’s a cross-cultural

collaboration and stars both Chinese and American actors. Chan said though he likes films, he never planned on going to the film industry. It can be risky to invest like that, he said. He didn’t want to be the guy who, because he’s into Italian food, opens a pizzeria. Zhou said he reached out to Chan about working for him. Chan invited him to Indianapolis, where Zhou said they talked for three and a half hours over lunch. “He’s willing to mentor me through this whole process, and I really appreciate that,” Zhou said. Zhou’s talked to different organizations to scope out interest in the film and distribute free tickets to students. “The reason why I want to work for Danny so much is because of his personality,” he said. “I’m definitely interested in the film industry, but he could be doing anything and I’d be willing to help.”

It’s a casual week for Beyoncé when she drops an album, debuts a video and embarks on a world tour in a matter of five days. The album “Lemonade” — which interlaces aggressive vocals and spoken word — battles issues of infidelity, racism and, most importantly, the modern-day struggles of black women. The accompanying HBO visual album and world tour look to interpret that sound by harnessing her words into the film, presentation and, of course, fashion. But while the visual album showcased the sartorial revival of Beyoncé as a woman, Wednesday’s opening show of the tour fell short, allowing her style to perform the glamour of Sasha Fierce rather than the subjection of a vulnerable human. If there was one word to sum up the intricate cinematography of the video, humanity would fit the bill. As Beyoncé writhed in the pains of inequality and discrimination, a darkrimmed hat fell over her eyes and stacks of silver jewelry encased her neck. When she threatened to leave her husband after his slew of affairs, an oversized fur coat was slung over her body and tight braids flew from her head. While she smashed car windows and fire hydrants with a “Hot Sauce” baseball bat, a ruffled mustard gown swayed with each step. Whether a showcase of her confidence, vulnerability, despair or acceptance, the video’s fashion stipulated a fully realized wardrobe of the scorned woman. As Hillary Clinton’s

husband denied his affair with a White House intern, she stood behind him in solidarity, wearing a lemon-tart dress suit and sweet peach lipstick. Her passive color palette and traditional silhouette spoke a message of femininity, but one that was weak and dependent. After being left by her husband and ridiculed for an extramarital pregnancy, Hester Prynne of “The Scarlet Letter” stood before her town with a scarlet “A” stitched to her chest. A scorned woman in every sense of the phrase, she was the image of shame, disgrace and weakness. But when Beyoncé’s video debuted with a woman of power and resilience, Beyoncé showed her wearing a Gucci printed pantsuit. Sadly, the tour’s opening show didn’t continue this theme. Beyoncé, like many stars, has her specific concert cos-

tume, namely an adorned leotard and heeled thigh-high boots. This staple shows off the Queen’s sexuality, confidence and classic image. In tandem her music has centered on similar ideas: female empowerment, self empowerment, #flawless, etc. But this isn’t any ordinary album and consequently shouldn’t be any normal tour. The music’s serious tones and topics were mirrored in the video’s fashion choices, even if they were a style different from Beyoncé‘s norm. After 60 minutes of these fashion choices, it seemed strange that they didn’t translate to the tour. Of course a sequined leotard is always Beyoncé‘s to rock, but when the new music and visual album introduced us to this new style of woman, I had hoped she would stick around.

Underground record store sells vinyl for more than a decade By James Freeborn jrfreebo@indiana.edu | @J_Freeborn

“Underground” is a term often used to describe independent artists who make music that flies under the public’s radar, unless it’s used to describe TD’s CDs and LPs. Then it’s literal. TD’s CDs and LPs sits in the basement of 322 E. Kirkwood Ave. Despite its hidden location, the Bloomington shop has stayed in business for more than a decade of selling vinyl records, cassettes and CDs. Its main entrance sits in an alley, but customers can also access the shop through the Soma coffee shop or the indoor corridor on the backside of Laughing Planet Cafe, both of which share the building with TD’s. “It’s kind of a cool thing to claim, being Bloomington’s only underground record store, in parentheses, literally, but with that you don’t really get that much business,” said Sarah Dunevant, one of the shop’s two employees. On Wednesday afternoon, she said only five customers had come through all day. Though she said business usually picks up on the

weekends, the shop stays pretty quiet for the most part, but that’s the way she and the other workers like it. Dunevant said TD’s stock is filled with local and underground artists’ music. The shop has specific sections for avant-garde music and worldly music, which comes from a variety of cultures and languages. TD’s even has a section dedicated to Plan-It-X, a local record label that focuses primarily on punk artists. “We don’t really just buy things based on what we think people will want,” she said. “We just buy things that we like and that we think are really great, so we’re never going to buy an Adele LP or something like that.” Even if much of the music it sells only appeals to a niche audience, she said this independent nature is one of the things that separates TD’s from other shops and makes work so enjoyable. “You get to have a store that you’re proud of,” she said. This independence is also one of the reasons TD’s opted out of participating in this year’s Record Store Day on April 16, she said. Each year, the organizers of Record Store Day

distribute special pressings of a variety of vinyl releases to all the stores participating in the event. “It’s not what it used to be,” she said. “It doesn’t really help independent labels or record stores very much.” Many independent record stores around the world have made a point to boycott Record Store Day altogether. Since many of the day’s scheduled releases are from big-name artists, big players in the music industry tend to hog all the business of pressing plants. Duvenant said this makes it hard for independent record labels and artists to get their music pressed in the months leading up to the day. The independent artists TD’s prefers to showcase don’t have a place on the Record Store Day lineup of special releases either, so TD’s avoids buying and selling the big name releases, she said. Still, she said the shop enjoyed a lucrative April 16 selling its own handpicked LPs, and after restocking, it was back to laid back business as usual. “You just get to sit and listen to music all day,” she said. “It’s pretty good.”

» POTENZA

Pendleton Correctional Facility. Eileen sits on her couch, drinking coffee out of a mug that has “mama bear of the bride” scrawled across it. “He was just a sad little boy,” she said.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 that meant talking about what they experienced that morning. “That was, in a weird kind of way, a very bonding experience,” she said. Allison’s first time back to the house was only days after the attack, and what she saw wasn’t her home, but a crime scene. Broken glass was everywhere and there was still blood on the floor. “That was hard to see,” she said. Eileen went through physical therapy for her leg, and everyone in the family went to therapy, both individually and as a family. It was a counselor with the police department that convinced them to move back home. But Eileen said they didn’t feel like they needed a ton of counseling. “We just sort of knew what we needed to do to get through,” she said. “Or we thought we did, anyway. Maybe we thought we knew but we didn’t.” Despite the circumstances, Allison looks back on the time spent at her grandmother’s with warm memories. A stream of friends and family wearing concerned faces and bringing with them food and hesitant questions came through the door at Eileen’s mother’s home. They thought the Potenzas would be broken. What they found was a family, battered but intact. The Potenzas had gone through difficult times before. About two decades ago, Eileen was diagnosed with breast cancer. At the hospital, she decided she still had a lot of life left to live. Eileen worked full-time and cared for two young children. For 30 days, before school, she would stop at a hospital nearby and undergo radiation treatment. Things like this, she said, you never think you can get through, but you can. “I never decided it was going to be a death sentence,” she said. Today, Anthony sits in

remembers her offer to help, but doesn’t understand it. He says what Eileen said confused him. He says he thought she was just talking; he never believed her words were trying to do anything but save her family.

* * * * * * Pendleton Correctional Facility sits off a quiet stretch of road less than an hour northwest of Indianapolis. To see an inmate, you first have to walk through a metal detector, give up your bags for a search and sign a waiver before you walk through a thick metal gate. The room has one wall of glass windows facing the correctional officers’ booth, and a wide conference table in the middle of the room. Anthony looks younger than his 23 years in an oversized khaki jumpsuit that bunches at the ankles. His forearms are inked with flaming “Project Livin’” tattoos. He pulls at the knots in his hair. Inside, he has a cell to himself. The walls, he says, are decorated with pictures of “big bootie girls,” but he keeps the photos of his kids he gets weekly in an album for preservation. In early October, he had only been at Pendleton for three months. He was in line for a job and for classes, and was waiting for visitation privileges to be granted for his family. He couldn’t wait to hug his kids. While he waits, he writes rap music about life, family and how one mistake can cost him the rest of his life. He says he wishes he could take the home invasion back, wishes he had a time machine, but he invaded the Potenza’s home to provide for his family. He says he has no regret. For him, it was all about the money. He was found guilty on several counts in the Potenza case including rape, carjacking and robbery. “People only say sorry when they get caught,” he said. He remembers the car ride to the ATM with Eileen. He

Eileen teaches developmental preschool at Harney Elementary School in Lebanon, Indiana. Her classroom is at the end of a long hallway and is filled with plastic toys, kids artwork and labeled bins. Her window looks out on the playground where kids’ shouts and laughter can be heard during recess. At a desk the shape of a macaroni noodle, nine preschoolers follow Eileen’s lead in counting and tapping their index fingers on the side of the table as her teaching assistant pours tiny cups of pink lemonade for snack time. Mrs. P, as a student in her class calls her, teaches 3-, 4- and 5-year-olds the basics — how to share, how to have patience, the alphabet, counting. Before the invasion, Eileen often thought about her influence in a child’s life. Now, she thinks about it every day. She sees some of the kids in her class who have been abandoned and thinks about the men who attacked her family. She thinks about how most of the men grew up with no one, too. “They were just sort of fighting to make their way through the world,” she says. And while it can’t excuse what they did, she says you can’t underestimate how many little kids have nobody that shows they care for them. As she told Anthony in the car, nobody should have to grow up that way: alone. * * * Today, the Potenza’s twostory brick colonial seems untouched by destruction. After the attack, Eileen changed

On her mantel, Allison Emhardt, 27, has a painting of her childhood home with the words “Home Sweet Home.” Despite what happened to her and her family in that house, the Potenzas decided to move back home. She now lives with her husband just a few minutes from her parents.

almost everything about the damaged rooms. The old formal living room now boasts a television and a large comfy, fabric sectional. Tucked into the corner, with family photos scattered across the top, the piano still sits. “It just feels better if it doesn’t look quite the same as it did,” Eileen says. Some changes are unnoticebale, though, like the alarm system the Potenzas had installed. It’s disembodied voice will play through the house if a door is left open. It’s the only security measure the Potenzas have put in place so far. * * * At Allison’s condo, a small, framed drawing is displayed on her mantel. Her childhood home is depicted in ink of red and brown, green and blue. In cursive, after the lawn fades to white paper, it reads “Home Sweet Home.” Allison wasn’t sure at first if she would be able to go back. Rooms that were once filled with good memories were now tainted of what happened to her during the attack. The den where her family had spent so much time together was the place where she had been sexually assaulted. The kitchen was the room where her mother was shot.

It took going back to her parents’ house to begin to remember all of the good that took place there. “Now, when I’m in the kitchen I don’t think about that,” she said. “I think about past memories.” Today, Allison lives with her husband in a neighborhood a few minutes away from her parents. She just passed the bar exam and bought a house. Now, when she comes home she makes sure to lock the front door behind her. She gets scared more now than she used to. At a showing of “Mockingjay, Part 2” she was nervous being in the crowd of moviegoers. But her husband’s calming presence eased her anxiety. But after everything that happened to her and her family, she felt like she needed to do something to make good out of their situation. “I just saw the guys in our house,” she says. “I’m sure they didn’t have a lot of oneon-one attention when they were kids.” Once a week, Allison drives to a public school in Brookside to sit with two students and help them read her stories as part of the United Way volunteer program Read Up. Each week, they switch from fiction to nonfiction. It’s just an hour a week,

she says, but it really feels like she’s showing them she cares. * * * Back at Harney, the classroom is quiet after the last school bell rings. Eileen shows off a dimesized yellow dinosaur, the excitement evident in her voice. A boy with autism in her morning class made it. He’s constantly making art out of Play-Doh, she says. The level of precision was so much more advanced than it should be at his age. Eileen says one of her main goals is to teach kids to love school. “These kids need to know that somebody really cares,” she says. “It’s just so important.” Around her classroom, she has tacked up black and white printer paper photos of her students dressed up as what they want to be when they grow up. Their theme last week was occupations. She spent the week steering her students away from wanting to be Spider-Man toward what jobs he represents — policemen, nurses, doctors and firemen. The playground behind her is empty. On Monday, the theme is Thanksgiving — she’ll spend the week teaching her kids how to give.

Details about the assault were drawn from a probable cause affidavit obtained from the Marion County Circuit Court and interviews with the family.

Six IU seniors will take Andy Mohr Field for the last time in their careers this weekend as IU plays host to No. 25 Ohio State for three games. The Buckeyes (29-12-1, 11-5-1) mark the sixth different-ranked opponent the Hoosiers (24-22, 6-11) have played this season, but the Hoosiers have yet to secure a win against a ranked team. Outfielders Katelyn Conenna, Michelle Huber, Shannon Cawley and Alyssa Rosati, and catchers Kelsey Dotson and Kassi Farmer will be celebrated at senior weekend during the series. “I’m definitely excited, but it’s sad at the same time ,” Conenna said. “But I’m going to make the most of it, and I’m excited to play my last home games.” Due to inclement weather in the forecast for Sunday, the two teams will play a doubleheader Friday, with games starting at 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. The series finale is scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday afternoon.

A ceremony honoring the seniors will occur between Friday’s games. IU is returning home for its first weekend series in Bloomington in three weeks after going 1-5 the last two weekends. IU’s pitching has seen a return to solid form recently, holding opponents to a little more than four runs per game in the last seven contests. Offensively, the Hoosiers have picked it up a bit as well, but they have struggled to turn hits into runs. Last weekend, IU collected 20 hits in the three games but scored just eight runs and left a combined 18 runners on base. “We just need to get back to our basics and start scoring more runs,” Huber said. “We’ve been getting a lot of runners on, we’re just not getting them in.” In the circle, Ohio State is led by junior pitchers Shelby Hursh and Lena Springer, who have combined to start 30 of the Buckeyes’ games this year and each own sub-3.00 ERAs.

runs. IU, on the other hand, has just 18 homers as a team. . IU Coach Michelle Gardner said she hopes the games against Ohio State, which sits in fourth in the Big Ten standings, will be a good opportunity for IU to elevate its level of play as it prepares for the Big Ten tournament in two weeks. “Obviously we’ve strug-

gled over the past couple weeks, and my goal for them is to finish strong because there’s still a lot of really good things that could happen, and that’s what we’re focusing on,” Gardner said. The Hoosiers are currently 11th in the Big Ten, and only the top 12 teams make the conference postseason

tournament. The entire bottom half of the standings are in limbo right now, as just four games separate eighth to last place. Gardner and the seniors acknowledged the difficulty of balancing the sentimental aspect of this weekend knowing that there are still important games to be played. She also

hopes they can have an affect in the final home series of their careers. “That’s a challenge every year, and so the bottom line for me is having an opportunity to honor them,” Gardner said. “I think it’s kind of a bittersweet moment for everybody, but it’s an opportunity to thank them.”

MEN’S TENNIS

IU bounces in first round of tournament after win streak By Lionel Lim lalimwei@umail.iu.edu

The IU men’s team’s bid to enter the NCAA tournament ended Thursday when it lost 4-1 to Iowa in the first round of the Big Ten tournament. The Hoosiers had defeated the Hawkeyes 4-0 earlier in the season and entered Thursday’s matchup on the back of a six-game win streak. “I’ve been saying all week that Iowa is a very good tennis team,” IU Coach Jeremy Wurtzman said. “They just

outplayed us.” The Hoosiers conceded the doubles point, something the team and Wurtzman said would go a long way in affecting the outcome of the match. Seniors Sam Monette and Daniel Bednarczyk lost 6-2 to Josh Silverstein and Lefteris Theodorou in No. 1 doubles. The Hoosiers got their way back into the mix in doubles when senior Chris Essick and junior Stefan Lugonjic beat their opponents 6-3 in the No. 2 matchup, but sophomore Raheel Manji and freshman

Afonso Salgado lost 7-5 to Nils Hallestrand and Dominic Patrick at the No. 3 slot. “They did a good job of securing No. 1 doubles,” Wurtzman said. “We weren’t able to pick it up at No. 3 and that gave them a lot of momentum.” Despite conceding the doubles point, Wurtzman said he was pleased with how the team reacted in the singles by winning four first sets to put themselves back in a more favorable position. Freshman Antonio Cem-

bellin captured another victory in the second set and put the Hoosiers on the scoreboard by defeating Jonas Larsen 7-5, 7-5 in No. 5 singles. Iowa made it 3-1 when Robin Haden beat Bednarczyk 6-4, 7-5 in No. 2 singles, and Dominic Patrick got the clincher when he beat Salgado 4-6, 6-4, 6-2 at No. 6 singles. “It was extremely disappointing,” Monette said. “Congrats to Iowa, they played great tennis today, but

it was disappointing because I think our team was ready. I’m also very sad because it’s my last college tennis match. It’s a strange feeling.” Monette was playing in the third set at No. 1 singles at the time of the clincher. He said he experienced a mix of emotions that ranged from disappointment to nostalgia. He also said he was trying to find solutions to outwit his opponent. “I wasn’t playing my best tennis today,” Monette said. “As a whole we were a little bit

tight. I was trying to stay on the court for as long as I can and was finding solutions and was trying battle through until the guy is broke down.” The loss marked the end of the seniors’ collegiate careers. Wurtzman said he expressed his gratitude for their contributions after the game. “We expressed how much they meant to the program over the last four years, especially this last month when we turned the season around that was down to them,” Wurtzman said.
