University to provide health care to 50-60 additional employees ALAN HAVORKA CHIEF REPORTER | afhovorka@bsu.edu
Ball State employees will be paying more for health care next year. As a part of a new health care policy, rates for faculty will increase 16.5 percent across the board. This means there will be increases between $9 and $61 in monthly premiums, depending on the chosen plan. Effective Jan. 1, 2015, increases are a result of the university’s compliance with components of the Affordable Care Act and the start of its first full year with Anthem, the new health care provider. Changes to the university’s health care plan were approved at the Board of Trustees’ last meeting, Oct. 10. A full breakdown of the in- HEALTH CARE crease to each plan will be CHANGES made available through Em- NEW HEALTH CARE ployee Benefits during the PROVIDER: open enrollment period of Anthem Medical Nov. 3 to Nov. 21.

POSITIVE TURNOVER MARGIN KEYS STREAK Cardinals 2-1 in games since Milas took over as starting quarterback ROBBY GENERAL STAFF REPORTER | rjgeneral@bsu.edu It’s a cliché almost as old as the game of football itself — whichever team wins the turnover battle, wins the game. Since changing starting quarterbacks after a 33-24 loss to Army, Ball State has accomplished just that. “We have a redshirt freshman quarterback playing his third game. We’ve had one turnover in three weeks. I think that’s pretty good,” head coach Pete Lembo said. Milas has not only protected the ball well, he’s yet to have a turnover, but he also jump-started an offense that had failed to score
more than 24 points since week one. The Cardinals are 2-1 in Milas’s starts, with the self-proclaimed gunslinger throwing for 749 yards and five touchdowns. Coincidentally, the resurgence of junior wide receiver Jordan Williams coincides with Milas taking over under center. The duo has connected for 323 pass yards, two touchdowns and has developed a tight bond both on and off the field. “I just have to trust the guys around me. Once you start hesitating, then things can go very wrong,” Milas said, “You can’t hesitate. You just have to trust yourself and trust your teammates.” The team’s running attack has also improved, with senior running back Jahwan Edwards rushing for 296 yards and five touchdowns in the last three games.
